Chapter 1022: Force To Be Reckoned With
She spared a few more glances at Treasurer Li, then proceeded to sprint towards Dongfang Ming’s office.
Ming Yan did not like what he saw. He exclaimed, clearly displeased, "Miss Wang, even if you want to see him, shouldn’t you have the servants ring him before taking action?"
Did she think this was her house, where she could go wherever she wanted?
How impolite and unruly!
Ming Yan did not tone it down when he said so, and though he was not too direct in calling her out, he was not showing much respect either.
Every other person in Yonghe Bank heard him, but they kept to themselves. How could Ming talk to Miss Wang like that? Isn’t he afraid he’d suffer after Miss Wang marries into the Dongfang family? This might be pillow talk, but rumors can be a force to be reckoned with!
Wang Xiangyun stopped in her tracks and paused for a moment, but she pressed on without giving any response.
She knew Ming Yan probably did not like her now, probably even hated her, because of Little Tian, but that had nothing to do with her anyway!
She only cared about her Brother Ming!
Ming Yan wanted to speak again when Dongfang Ming exited the room.
Dongfang Ming spared a glance at Wang Xiangyun who appeared out of nowhere. Then, his gaze drifted to Ming Yan a short distance away. He was about to speak when Wang Xiangyun cut him short.
"Brother Ming, I’m here to remind you that some people should be avoided at all costs before gossip spreads!"
Dongfang Ming did not quite
Some people should be avoided at all costs?
Who?
Surely you don’t mean yourself?
If you do, then why are you here?
Dongfang Ming stared her down. "Indeed, Miss Wang! Then may I please ask you to stay out of my sight from now on?"
Er…
He must have misunderstood her. He took that to mean she herself should be avoided, and this made her upset and short of breath.
"Brother Ming, I meant that shared wife of Anping Town! Ye Liushi!"
Ye Liushi? Little Duo?
His eyes glimmered at the mention of Liu Duo’s name.
He squinted at her this time, and said, "Miss Wang, don’t you think you’ve crossed the line? Little Duo’s my business partner and a good friend, why should I avoid her? You, on the other hand, are neither. I should hope you know how to make yourself scarce next time!"
In his mind, Liu Duo was his one and only life partner, but he knew that was an impossible dream.
He would not do anything to smash it!
He kept referring to her as Miss Wang. Wang Xiangyun, who was already heartbroken in the first place, could not stop her tears from roaming free.
"Brother Ming, that woman’s not an ordinary wife! She’s pregnant and she came to the capital to see you! Why isn’t she satisfied with four husbands! I just didn’t want any gossip about you to spread. It’s going to ruin your name! How could you say that to me?"
That was too much information at once. Dongfang Ming was obviously juggling several different emotions.
What’s that I heard?
Little Duo’s pregnant? She’s in the capital?
Why hasn’t she looked for me?
Dongfang Ming automatically left out the part about Liu Duo not being an ordinary wife.
He knew how she was as a person, from the time he had spent with her. She was definitely not the unfaithful kind!
The news certainly threw him for a loop.
His furrowed brows just got tighter.
Ming Yan, as his loyal servant, could tell his master’s love for Liu Duo had exceeded certain limits.
