illicit relationship

Chapter 1360: Are You and Leng Nichang a Couple?

“Ran, is that you?” a voice rang out from behind Xi Ran.

Xi Ran and the others instantly turned their heads toward the source of the sound. Xi Ran widened her eyes for a second before finally rushing toward that person.

Hu Yuming!

The person who had just spoken was Hu Yuming, Xi Ran’s ex-boyfriend.

Hu Yuming was a young man about twenty-four years old. He was quite tall and had blue hair and red eyes.

Even though he was not as handsome as Xiao Tian, but he was still in the category of the attractive man.

Leng Nichang and Xiao Tian did not say anything and only stared at them.

Of course, Leng Nichang knew who Hu Yuming was.

‘Why did he reappear in Ran’s life? I have to report this to madam Xi later.’

Even though she disliked Hu Yuming, she did not show it on her face.

Xi Ran lifted her head to look at Hu Yuming, “Yuming, where have you been all this time? Why did you suddenly disappear on me?”

“Ran, your mother disliked me, so I had no choice but to leave you.” Hu Yuming spoke and paused for a second before he continued, “I didn’t want you to keep quarreling with your mother, so I chose to leave. I’m sorry Ran.”

“Are you going to leave me again?” Xi Ran inquired.

“No.” Hu Yuming shook his head. “Ran, I realize that I can’t live without you, so I won’t repeat the same mistake.”

Xi Ran’s heart was filled with happiness after hearing his words.

Xiao Tian turned his head to look at Leng Nichang. “Is he lady Xi’s boyfriend?”

“Her ex-boyfriend.” Leng Nichang gave an honest answer.

Hu Yuming shifted his gaze from Xi Ran to Xiao Tian. “You are Xiao Tian, right? That Xiao Tian who got title as Miracle Young Man.”

He already knew about Leng Nichang and was aware of how close her relationship was with Xi Ran, so he was not surprised when he saw her.

“Yes. I’m that Xiao Tian.” Xiao Tian gave an honest answer.

“Are you and Leng Nichang a couple?” Hu Yuming threw a random question.

He did this because he hoped Xiao Tian had no special relationship with Xi Ran. That was why he asked something like that, hoping Xiao Tian was Leng Nichang’s boyfriend.

“We are friends.” Xiao Tian did not have a special relationship with Leng Nichang and could not joke around about this matter.

“Then…are you Ran’s lover?” at this moment, Hu Yuming hoped Xiao Tian would say no.

“It’s a bit complicated to answer your question.” Xiao Tian was Xi Ran’s friend and also her big boss.

“A…a bit complicated?” Hu Yuming’s heart was suddenly filled with sadness.

Leng Nichang giggled after seeing Hu Yuming’s expression.

‘Mr Xiao is toying with Hu Yuming.’

She loved it when Xiao Tian toyed with Hu Yuming’s heart.

When Xiao Tian saw Hu Yuming’s face, he suddenly thought Hu Yuming was an innocent young man. “How should I put our relationship in words. We are…”

Xi Ran instantly cleared the misunderstanding. “He is my boss. He hired me to be an actress in his film.”

Hu Yuming let out a sigh of relief. “Thank God! Brother Xiao, please don’t take Ran from me. If you are single and want a girlfriend, why don’t you make Leng Nichang your lover? She is a gorgeous and amazing woman.”

“Hu Yuming, Mr. Xiao is not like you.” Leng Nichang responded, “With his handsome face and wealth, he is never short of women. He doesn’t know what being single is. There is no word ‘single’ in his dictionary.”

“He has many women.” Xi Ran added.

Both Xi Ran and Leng Nichang knew that Xiao Tian had many women because Xing Ranqing had told them everything.

“Pl…playboy?” black lines formed on Hu Yuming’s forehead.

The corner of Xiao Tian’s lips twitched.

‘Why do I feel like they see me as a bad young man?’

Blue Ice Lotus Gang Headquarters, Front Yard.

Xiao Tian was currently sitting on the ground with his underlings. He went straight to his gang after talking with Xi Ran and the others.

“Mu Hou, Chun Hua, should we recruit more people?” Xiao Tian threw a random question.

Mu Hou and Chun Hua were startled by his question.

“You are the boss, so everything is up to you.” Mu Hou did not mind even if he had to train more people because Xiao Tian paid him to train his underlings.

“Yes.” Chun Hua added.

Xiao Tian turned his head to the left side. “What do you think, junior brother?”

“It’s up to you, senior brother.” Ren Aoxu responded, “But if you want to recruit more underlings, I think it’s better to put a bottom level, like at least they are low-level master stage.”

There was a reason why Ren Aoxu suggested that Xiao Tian did not recruit martial artists at the apprentice stage.

It was because they were weak!

From his point of view, it was better to have a few strong underlings than many weak subordinates.

“That makes senses.” Xiao Tian agreed with Ren Aoxu’s idea.

At this moment, one of Xiao Tian’s underlings spoke something shocking. “Leader, why don’t we use your previous method?”

“My previous method?” Xiao Tian did not get her words.

“Yes.” She responded, “Beat them and force them to be your underlings. No, no, I mean, beat them and force them to be your slave!”

“That’s right, leader. I agree with her idea.” Another Blue Ice Lotus gang member added.

“Damn! You are all crazy people!” Xiao Tian stated.

“Eh! Does that mean you are a crazy too? After all, you are our leader.” One of the Blue Ice Lotus gang members spoke,

The corner of Xiao Tian’s lips twitched.

“Haha.” Xiao Tian’s underlings laughed.

Sun Auction House, Xi Xingyi’s Office.

Inside a big and luxurious office, two people were sitting on the couch. The mature lady was about forty-five years old, while the grown-up man was thirty-three.

Even though the mature lady was already forty-five years old, but she still looked young, as if she was in her twenties.

These two people were none other than Xi Xingyi and her boyfriend, Han Shutai.

Han Shutai, who was sitting on the opposite side of Xi Xingyi, inquired, “Xingyi, how about we have dinner at Autumn Restaurant later?”

“Alright.” Xi Xingyi agreed instantly.

As they were chatting happily, someone suddenly knocked on the door. Han Shutai smiled at Leng Nichang after she entered Xi Xingyi’s office.

“What’s wrong, Nichang?” Xi Xingyi inquired.

Leng Nichang did not answer immediately and stared at Han Shutai.

“It’s fine. You can tell me now.” Of course, Xi Xingyi knew what Leng Nichang had in mind.

“Hu Yuming appeared again and he met Ran earlier.” Leng Nichang told Xi Xingyi what had happened earlier.

“What? Didn’t he agree to disappear?” Xi Xingyi was enraged because Hu Yuming broke his promise.

“He broke his promise.” Leng Nichang responded, “He even said he would never leave Ran anymore. He wants to be with Ran forever.”

At this moment, Han Shutai clenched his right fist.

‘That fool! Does he want to ruin our plans?’

He was unhappy because Hu Yuming could ruin their plans later.
