Chapter 13 - Chapter 13: Accompanying Wifey to Talk Business

After fighting for a while, Xia Ming was also tired. He shouted angrily, "Still not going to Scram!"

"Yes, yes, yes, I'll scram now, scram now!"

Yellow Hair, panic-stricken, fled the scene as if escaping. Seeing the few Punks driven off by him, Xia Ming quickly went to Lin Wanqing's side and asked in a Gentle tone, "Wifey, are you okay?"

His words carried deep self-blame and affection. She could see that Xia Ming's self-blame was sincere. Instantly, this made Lin Wanqing's heart feel warm. All these years, she had constantly experienced mutual suspicion and deception; as they say, The marketplace is like a battlefield, so she never dared to Relax for a moment.

But, for some reason, after meeting Xia Ming, she suddenly felt an indescribable sense of ease. Just being with Xia Ming made her feel very relaxed. She was Infatuated with this feeling of relaxation, and she also greatly enjoyed the feeling of being cared for.

"Are you okay?" Lin Wanqing also nervously reached out her fair, soft little hand and began to Feel around Xia Ming's body, asking with worry.

"I'm fine, I'm fine."

Being cared for by Lin Wanqing made Xia Ming a bit nervous too. He quickly said, "Wifey, don't worry, with me here, this group of guys won't even dream of hurting you. From now on, I'll be your Knight protecting his lady!"

"Xia Ming, how are you so amazing?" Seeing Xia Ming's nervous look, Lin Wanqing suddenly let out a Pfft and her face lit up with a smile. This made Xia Ming stunned speechless for a moment. Lin Wanqing chided playfully with a glance, then couldn't help asking.

When she encountered those three Punks just now, Lin Wanqing had been scared to death. She couldn't help but think of Xia Ming. It was thanks to Xia Ming appearing at the critical moment; otherwise, she might have been harassed by those Punks.

"But of course! Your Husband is a very capable fighter!" Xia Ming said, somewhat smugly.

Seeing Xia Ming's cocky appearance, Lin Wanqing smiled again. This left Xia Ming Agog. However, seeing Xia Ming's stunned look, Lin Wanqing was also very satisfied with the impact of her charm.

"I've decided. Tomorrow, when I discuss business, I'm taking you with me."

"Ah..."

Xia Ming was Slow on the uptake. He quickly asked, "Wifey, what business are we talking about?"

"You beat up Guo Haifei today. Right now, our Sales channels are facing a big problem. Naturally, we need to find new sales channels," Lin Wanqing said.

"I'm sorry!" Xia Ming suddenly said.

"Sorry for what?" Lin Wanqing was made somewhat curious by Xia Ming's sudden apology and couldn't help asking.

"If it weren't for me, perhaps our company wouldn't be facing such a big problem." Xia Ming felt extremely remorseful. If only I hadn't been so impulsive back then. Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought so much trouble to his Wifey's company. This made Xia Ming very unhappy.

"Speaking of which, I should be thanking you. Before you arrived, that guy was getting handsy with me. You don't need to blame yourself for anything." Seeing Xia Ming's remorseful look, Lin Wanqing couldn't help but feel distressed too, comforting him, "You should have taught him an even harsher lesson back then."

Hearing this, Xia Ming instantly felt much better. After all, he was helping Lin Wanqing; otherwise, he wouldn't have gained such a beautiful Wifey out of thin air.

"Aiyo, my noodle shop!"

Not long after Xia Ming had driven off the Punks, the Owner of this Establishment came out. Seeing the state of his shop, the Owner felt heartbroken. This was his painstaking effort! Now it had been Smashed to pieces, making the shop Owner very unhappy.

"Did you two do this to my shop?" By now, everyone else in the shop had left; only Xia Ming and Lin Wanqing remained. The Owner naturally focused his gaze on these two.

Seeing the Owner's fuming appearance, Xia Ming knew that he was responsible for all this just now. He said with apology, "Boss, I'm really very sorry. Just now, a little yellow-haired punk came here making trouble, so it ended up like this. Boss, how about you calculate how much it costs? I'll Compensate you. Is that okay?"

Regarding this matter, Xia Ming also knew the owner was justified. He had damaged the owner's things, so naturally, he had to pay compensation.

"Alright, I'll calculate it for you." The owner, somewhat angrily, began to tally up: "You broke my Tables and chairs, plus what my customers ordered here, it totals over a thousand. I won't ask for more from you, just give me one thousand yuan, and we'll call it even. Otherwise, we'll Call the police to resolve this."

"Ah... So expensive..." Xia Ming said, somewhat shocked.

Seeing Xia Ming Look embarrassed for once, Lin Wanqing couldn't help but cover her mouth and snicker. Xia Ming's expression at this moment was very unsightly. He only had two thousand yuan left on him right now. If this was spent, he'd have no money left! He didn't know why, but after taking the Body Strengthening Liquid, his Appetite had increased significantly. This thousand yuan might not even be enough for him to eat for the month.

"Expensive? Let me tell you, the things you broke are worth much more than just a thousand yuan! Asking you for a thousand yuan is already letting you off cheap!" The Owner immediately jumped up and shouted loudly, "If you don't pay, we'll call the police!"

Hearing the threat to call the police, Xia Ming immediately wilted. For countryside people, going to the Police Station was no joking matter. Firstly, in many people's eyes, entering a Police station meant you had gotten into trouble. If by chance you went to jail, you wouldn't even be able to get a wife.

"I'll pay, I'll pay! But Boss, your tables here are all Old; one wouldn't sell for more than a few dozen yuan. Plus, I only broke two or three. Counting your Beef noodles at six yuan a bowl, there were only about twenty bowls here in total. So, at most, I'll give three hundred yuan."

"Three hundred yuan? Do you think I'm easy to Fool? No way! You have to give at least eight hundred!"

"Eight hundred is too expensive! Why don't you just call the police!" Xia Ming said fiercely.

"Five hundred! Can't go any lower!" The Owner knew he had asked for too much and immediately said.

"Four hundred. Take it or leave it," Xia Ming said, acting nonchalant.

"No, no way!" The Owner was unwilling. If he only got four hundred, he wouldn't make a single dime. Of course, he wasn't happy about it.

"If not, then you call the police. At that time, the police will at most make me compensate for these items. But your things are all old and aren't worth much. Maybe then I won't even have to give you four hundred," Xia Ming said, acting like a Thick-skinned rascal.

"Fine! You win! Four hundred it is!"

The Owner gritted his teeth and finally settled on four hundred. Meanwhile, Lin Wanqing watched With great interest from the side. She hadn't expected Xia Ming to be an expert haggler. A thousand yuan, persistently bargained down to four hundred! The most amazing part was the way he bargained.

Having damaged someone else's property, if it were her, she would have just accepted being ripped off a bit. But Xia Ming had forcefully cut down six hundred yuan just like that. This suddenly made Lin Wanqing feel that Xia Ming was quite impressive.

Perhaps marrying someone like him would be a good choice.

Thinking this, Lin Wanqing's pretty face instantly turned red as apple: "How could this be? How could I have such thoughts? I've only known this guy for a few days! Too embarrassing!"
