Codename:phoenix - Chapter 168 Returning The Favor

After council Yun had decided to take his friend Dr. Yang to the master shareowner who he thought was still Chairman Xu, he then instructed his men to keep an eye on his daughter and to never let her out of the room unless she agreed to sign the documents stating that she will marry the person whose signature was also on the documents right after their graduation.

“This is illegal detention! I will tell grams about this!” Kiang Leilei was about to pull her phone out from inside her purse when her father grabbed her hands and snatched her phone away.

“I will confiscate this since you are being stubborn. Stay here with Kim for a while. Get to know each other and try to establish a connection. Who knows right after your talk you will fall in love with him.” Council Yun said as he gently patted Kiang Leilei’s head.

“Really? Do you think that falling in love is just that easy? You and mother even had sex but you did not fall in love with each other.” Kiang Leilei scoffed as she spoke with much sarcasm and bitterness.

“Just wait for me here, Lei. Father will just be downstairs.” Council Yun seemed not to pay attention to Kiang Leilei’s words. After talking to his daughter, he then turned his attention to Yang Kim.

“Kim, please understand my daughter. She is a spoiled brat because of her grandfather. But I am sure once she gets to know you more she will eventually warm up to you.” Council Yun said as he gently squeezed the man’s shoulders.

“I perfectly understand Lei. As a gentleman that I am, I won’t force myself to her. I will just wait until the day she voluntarily submits herself to me.” Yang Kim’s answered impressed both his father and council Yun. Unfortunately, the effect on Kiang Leilei was the opposite. She became even more disgusted with Yang Kim for she knew better than anyone else that the guy was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Not wanting to see the guy’s face, Kiang Leilei then turned her gaze away from the guy and stared at the ceiling to floor window instead.

Just when the two patriarchs were about to move towards the door, Wang Yuvin suddenly showed up in front of them.

“Who are you? Who let this guy into the second floor?” Council Yun asked, his face seemed displeased.

“What can I say? Seems like you have some moves, kid. You managed to get past my bodyguards unharmed.” Dr. Yang was shocked and impressed at the same time.

“Master, sorry if we kept you waiting. We are in fact on our way to the lounge.” The guy who seemed to be the leader of the security immediately apologized to Wang Yuvin.

“What did you just call him? Master?” Council Yun asked as confusion and curiosity enveloped the entire room.

“Good day, everyone. Please allow me to introduce the new major shareowner of the Hideout, Mr. Y!” Just before the confusion created another misunderstanding and heated argument, the head manager who just came downstairs, told everyone who Wang Yuvin was.

“W-what? How come?” Council Yun’s eyes almost fell out of their sockets upon learning who Wang Yuvin was.

“Chairman Xu sold his shares to Mr. Y. So, whether council Yun likes it or not, this fine young man here is the new master of the Hideout.”

“Sorry for the intrusion, council Yun. But this friend of yours ordered his bodyguards to beat me. As the new master of the Hideout, this act of disrespect will not be tolerated.” Wang Yuvin spoke as his eyes searched for the lovely figure he saw earlier.

As soon as Kiang Leilei heard the familiar voice, her worried heart suddenly calmed down. However, it started to race faster again once she turned around and saw the owner of the voice.

‘It’s him!’ Kiang Leilei’s heart jumped in joy as she saw and recognized the person who saved her life. However, that happy feeling only lasted for a moment when she had recalled how the guy told the little girl that she was not pretty!

‘Huh! This guy must be worse than Yang Kim! Come to think of it! He might be a pervert, too!’ However, for an unknown reason, instead of feeling disgusted about the idea that Wang Yuvin might also be a pervert, Kiang Leilei’s body seemed to like the idea that her face flushed red. Good thing no one noticed her reaction.

Gritting his teeth and clenching his fists hard, Council Yun can’t believe that the shares he was trying to get his hands on, were already taken away from him. How dare this young man rob him of the opportunity to become the Hideout’s top master? And worse, this guy seemed more difficult to deal with than Chairman Xu.

But come to think of it, this guy must be from a powerful and influential family that he was able to coerce Chairman Xu into selling him his shares. Though he wanted to get angry, council Yun had to study the situation first and avoid getting to the guy’s bad side or the entire Hideout will turn against him.

“I do apologize for what my friend did. But just like me, he did not know that you are now the new master of Hideout. Can you please spare him just for now?” Council Yun chose to play safe for a while since he had no idea of what the new master and his family were capable of doing.

“Sorry. But I cannot do that. So from now on Dr. Yang and his son are prohibited inside and near the premises of the Hideout.” Wang Yuvin said out loud, sending everyone into a state of shock.

“Do you know what you are talking about? Let me remind you that Dr. Yang is a VIP here! Besides he is the Director and owner of Yang Medical Group!” Council Yun tried to keep his cool, unfortunately, his anger won against his self-control.

“Dr. Yang is a VIP here? Okay, then I shall revoke his VIP privileges as well.” Wang Yuvin quickly retorted completely ignoring the old men’s facial reaction.

Liking how the turn of events became favorable for her, Kiang Leilei can’t help but let out a low chuckle. Now, she can’t wait to watch how the Hideout’s security drag Dr. Yang and his disgusting son out of the room.

“You just wanted revenge, right? I know you are just jealous of me because Leilei and I are going to be engaged.” Yang Kim suddenly spoke out loud.

“What do you mean, son?” Dr. Yang asked as his eyes shifted from Yang Kim to Wang Yuvin.

“Father, that guy is just power tripping. He just wanted us out of the Hideout because he had his eyes on my future wife!”

“Are you sure about that? That’s also a rule of the Hideout! A master shareowner must not abuse his position as the head or he will lose all his privileges!” Council Yun became lively again, if Yang Kim’s words were true, this cocky new master shall stand before the other shareowners and convince them he was not abusing his power.

Afraid that the situation will be overturned, Kiang Leilei decided to help Wang Yuvin out. Grabbing the engagement papers that she and Yang Kim were supposed to sign, she rushed forward to Wang Yuvin’s side and then said,

“Sign this! If we both sign this paper, his words can’t work against you!” Kiang Leilei was still catching her breath when she handed the document and pen to Wang Yuvin.

“Why should I trust you? Aren’t you council Yun’s daughter?”

“You saved my life that day. I am just returning the favor.”

For a brief moment, Wang Yuvin’s mouth hung open as he stared straight at Kiang Leilei’s eyes. This girl knew who he was!
