Little Miss Devil: The President’s Mischievous Wife Chapter 352

Lu Xinyi looked at Shen Yi as a sense of guilt swept through her body. Someone like him could have found an equally intelligent and capable woman. However, since she was a shameless and greedy woman, she didn’t have any intention to part with him.
Shen Yi could feel the sudden change in her mood. He then slipped his fingers between hers and gave her an assuring glance.
“There’s nothing to be worried about.” Not when he was around. Who would dare to hurt his little wife in his presence? Did these brainless idiots think they could run off after offending Lu Xinyi?
Staring at the two, Chang Yifeng felt like his soul had left his body, leaving an empty shell in front of the demon king. Shen Yi’s eyes shifted to his direction, and Chang Yifeng couldn’t stop the cold shiver that ran through his body. Under the demon king’s icy gaze, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
“What brings you here, Mr. Chang?” Shen Yi regarded him with a cold tone. His deep baritone voice was enough to make one’s heart shiver in fright.
Chang Yifeng tried to keep their eye contact, but he was deeply aware of the difference in their status. He was nothing compared to this man. As to why Shen Yi suddenly decided to take over Top Tier Entertainment, he could vaguely make a guess that it was all because of Lu Xinyi.
“I’m here to express my intention to apologize to Miss Lu,” he replied.
“Oh, now you are apologizing? Do you think you’ll easily get away after slapping my wife?” Shen Yi responded with his cold piercing eyes staring at his prey, ready to lash out.
“W-wife?!”
“If you have known she’s my wife, would you dare?”
A man with the identity and status like Shen Yi, who would dare to oppose him?
“No…” Of course not. He knew that he could not compete against the man beside Lu Xinyi. “I know I’m at fault here,” Chang Yifeng admitted.
Shen Yi raised a brow. The man across him seemed to forgot his rudeness and arrogance as he realized the gravity of his actions against Lu Xinyi.
Chang Yifeng turned his attention to Lu Xinyi who had been silent throughout their conversation.
“It was my fault that Miss Lu was hurt.” His defeat and how his family lost their company to Shen Yi’s hands were the biggest wake-up call he received in his entire life.
“I wouldn’t dare,” the other man admitted truthfully. “Of course, people would treat her differently if we all know about it.”
The expression on Lu Xinyi’s face suddenly changed. This was what she was trying to avoid all this time!
Shen Yi took a side glance at his wife and saw the conflicting emotions in her eyes.
‘So it is like this…’ he thought.
“People who know her standing treated her with respect not because she’s my wife, but she earned it herself.” Shen Yi continued to cut his steak before lifting his head up to stare at Chang Yifeng.
“But that doesn’t make sense. If the public knows about your real relationship, how would she expect the people to treat her fairly?” The deep frown on his face made Chang Yifeng’s face a little colder.
“If that’s the case… then tell me why you are here,” Lu Xinyi retorted, “Are you here to apologize to me, or you are just trying to save yourself from my husband’s wrath?”
“Even if you beg on your knees today, you cannot save your company.” Shen Yi had successfully crushed his remaining hopes on getting back his family business.
“President Shen!” Chang Yifeng exclaimed. Wasn’t there any chance to save his company?
Shen Yi gave him a pointed glare. Chang Yifeng understood at once what Shen Yi’s real intention was. He wanted him to see in a helpless state that he wouldn’t have enough face to show to others. The demon king was seeking revenge for his bride!
“Miss Lu, didn’t I lose enough for today? You were right. You are able to turn me into a joke. Now, not only I lose my profession and reputation, but my family loses our company. Are you satisfied now?”
“You really think it’s my fault? Didn’t I warn you not to mess with me?” Lu Xinyi questioned him. “Do you think I like to see my husband’s hands get dirty for something trivial as this? If we announce our relationship to the world, would all of you stop being an idiot for once and not to think lowly of me?”
Hearing her questions, Chang Yifeng forgot the words he was about to say. All this woman had to do was to announce her marriage with Shen Yi, and no one would dare to bully her again. Yet, she chose to endure all the nasty words thrown in her way just to prove herself.
“Then why?” Lu Xinyi gave him a confused look. “Why won’t you announce it?”
“My husband is not a tool or a resource that I can take advantage of. I do not care what people think of me as long as Shen Yi believes me. People may not understand what’s between us, but I do not give a damn.”
Chang Yifeng stared at him in shock and loss for words. In the end, he looked down with a defeated expression on his face. His fists clenched on his side as he waited for Shen Yi to say something, but the demon king continued to eat and pampered his wife as if he wasn’t there in their dining table.
Just as he was about to give up and leave, Shen Yi’s voice stopped him.
“About your family business. It’s pointless if I give it back to you. Even if I didn’t purchase the majority stocks of your company, it’s deemed to fall down one of these days.”
Chang Yifeng gaped at him. What the hell was he talking about?!
“You didn’t know?” Shen Yi sipped his tea and stared at the man across him, “Top Tier Entertainment was losing investors as your newest competitor managed to convince them to drop your next proposals and invest to their game instead. It indeed looks promising. Whether I buy it or not, you will lose your position.”
This… how was this possible?!
Chang Yifeng racked his brain trying to figure out what Shen Yi meant. Were his parents lying to him all this time? Didn’t they say they managed to keep their investors and would be able to support the release of the new game he was planning?
He tried to see if Shen Yi was trying to deceive him but there was none. This couldn’t be?!
“From the looks of it, you have no idea what’s going on.”
“Was it serious?” Lu Xinyi tilted her head on one side and cupped her chin.
Shen Yi continued to cut the meat on his plate.
“It was just a coincidence, dear. Mr. Chang cannot avoid it, but until when, it’s up to him.”
“What do you mean?” Chang Yifeng questioned him. So if he hadn’t offended Lu Xinyi, he would be left to dark not knowing they were losing Top Tier Entertainment?
“You should probably check and discuss this with your parents. Now that you have SY Holdings to support you, shouldn’t you be thinking of new plans to keep your players on your game?”
Chang Yifeng hesitated. There were rumors that their rival company, Red Fox Interactive, would release a new game within the next six months. This was why he pushed the re-launch of the game although there were still bugs that hadn’t been resolved. Red Fox Interactive had found a backing that could support their newest endeavors. Once they launched their newest game, it would surely affect the standing of Hunt: For the Legion.
“Do you know who recently joined the board of directors of Red Fox?” Shen Yi’s voice reached Lu Xinyi’s ears.
“Who?” Lu Xinyi picked some pickled radish and ate it.
“Your cousin, Sun Feiyan.”
Chang Yifeng stared at them with bewilderment. Lu Xinyi was Sun Feiyan’s cousin? Sun Feiyan who recently ascended as Sun Corporation’s newest CEO and President? So the rumors about her were true? Lu Xinyi was really the third miss of the Sun family.
“Don’t you think it’s weird that she spread her influence outside the norms?” The woman stared down on her teacup while trying to figure out what her cousin’s plan was. Sun Feiyan hadn’t made a drastic move against her recently. What she didn’t know was that Sun Feiyan was being suppressed by their own aunt, Sun Mingai.
The color on Chang Yifeng’s face faded as he thought about the consequences of his actions. If the demon king hadn’t made a move against him, would the Sun family come after him? Offending one family from the big 5 was already too much, but two…? He didn’t dare to think any further.
Although SY Holding had taken over Top Tier Entertainment, it didn’t mean that Shen YI will extend an olive branch to save it. Chang Yifeng tried to gauge the demon king’s mood, but as usual, his face hadn’t given him a glimmer of hope to save his family business. He was aware that Shen Yi only took Top Tier Entertainment to spite him.
“Then please tell me what President Shen’s plans for Top Tier…”
Shen Yi hummed. He realized that this young man wasn’t bad at all. He wasn’t an idiot and knew that this company takeover wasn’t that simple.
“I want you to release a new game in six months. Your revamp of Hunt wouldn’t be enough to compete with Red Fox Interactive.”
Shen Yi needed to cut the grass from its roots to avoid problems in the future. He wouldn’t let Sun Feiyan re-establish Sun family’s glory within the Capital City.
