374: Chapter 374: Because You Deserve a Spanking 374: Chapter 374: Because You Deserve a Spanking “Speaking of which, Tangyu, I looked into Liu Dingyang, but found nothing useful.
He’s so cautious that he hasn’t shown even a hint of vulnerability.
Unless we can get him to talk, I’m afraid it will be really hard to find a breakthrough.
I also specifically checked who he’s been close with, but no luck there either—all the usual suspects he’s always been friendly with.
I can’t find out anything else for now,” Rao Yuanzhi said.
Tangyu fell into silence.
Given that Liu Dingyang could be titled a notorious young man and was a prominent figure in Donglin City, it was only natural for him to be cautious.
Tangyu had encountered him once before, and knew well that this man was profoundly insidious and excellent at scheming.
The title of a notorious young man suited him perfectly.
To investigate this matter was bound to be extremely difficult unless one could get him to talk.
A fleeting light also passed unnoticed in Tangyu’s eyes.
“Oh right, I stumbled upon something else.
Liu Dingyang seems to have some connections with a very powerful and mysterious person,” Rao Yuanzhi suddenly remembered to mention.
“Oh, a mysterious person?
Could it be someone from the Yin Medical Sect?” Tangyu thought to himself.
Rao Yuanzhi shook his head and said, “Not sure yet, I will continue investigating.
My connections are decent, but since the target is Liu Dingyang, I can’t be too overt.
I can only investigate through some trustworthy, minor channels.
But honestly, I doubt much will come of it.”
Tangyu nodded slightly, his mouth curling up in a sinister smile.
All schemes and plots pale in comparison to absolute power.
If truly pushed against the wall, then they would have to resort to force.
After all, if Tangyu doesn’t bother Liu Dingyang, Liu wouldn’t spare him either.
“Yuanzhi, could you help me arrange a meeting with Doctor Xiao?
I’d like to see her,” Tangyu suddenly said.
Rao Yuanzhi glanced at Tangyu and replied, “Why do you want to see her?
She is a descendant of the Gu Medical Sect, definitely unrelated to the Yin Medical Sect.
Tangyu gave a light smile and said, “I know, I want to meet her not because of the Yin Medical Sect, but purely because I want to see her.
She’s a descendant of the Gu Medical Sect, I’m a descendant of the Ghost Medical Sect, and you’re considered one of the most outstanding young disciples of the Holy Doctor Sect.
Don’t you think it’s a case of heroes recognizing heroes?
Shouldn’t we get to know each other and exchange views?”
Rao Yuanzhi was momentarily stunned, then smiled and nodded, “You put it that way, it makes sense.
I’ll try my best to arrange it.
However, Doctor Xiao is a bit peculiar and rather aloof.
If she doesn’t want to meet someone, nobody can force her.
I’ve only met her twice myself, and we had a minor competition once.
Embarrassingly, I lost badly.
Haha, but I believe mentioning your name, being a descendant of the Ghost Medical Sect, should probably make Doctor Xiao want to meet you.”
“Haha, just give it a try.
If it doesn’t work out, I’ll find an opportunity to visit her personally,” Tangyu said.
“Sure,” Rao Yuanzhi agreed.

Zhao Xinxin held her wine glass, slightly pursing her lips to sip her red wine, her graceful posture and her goddess-like visage exuding an extraordinary charm.
They say women in their thirties have a special flavor, appealing more to mature men.
And Zhao Xinxin felt like a top-grade young wife.
“Master Yu is truly bold; I hope for your continued support in the future,” Zhao Xinxin said.
She attended this evening party to network, knowing well that doing business relies heavily on connections.
And such gatherings are prime spots for meeting key clients.
The man Zhao Xinxin referred to as Master Yu was around twenty-six or twenty-seven, visibly younger than Zhao Xinxin.
Yu Fei smiled and replied, “Naturally, having the opportunity to collaborate with someone as beautiful and capable as Miss Zhao is a pleasure.
I’ve heard of Miss Zhao’s reputation, and I’ve also read about you in finance magazines.
I’ve admired you from afar for a long time, and meeting you today fulfills a long-held wish.
My family has resources in both hard and soft media.
If Miss Zhao is interested in collaborating, we should definitely have a detailed discussion.”
Zhao Xinxin smiled and nodded, “Then I’ll make an appointment with you someday, Master Yu.”
“My father is also working on a big project, looking for partners, currently planned at about five hundred million,” Yu Fei said with a smile, glancing at Tangyu.
Zhao Xinxin’s eyebrows twitched slightly, and she asked, “You mean, I might also try?”
“Haha, of course, your company is quite capable, especially since you’ve become famous overnight through your collaboration with Dali Group.
I expect your company is skyrocketing extremely fast.
Most of all, what I appreciate is Miss Zhao’s business acumen.
In selecting partners, I consider various aspects, and I think Miss Zhao is definitely capable of giving it a try,” Yu Fei laughed.
Zhao Xinxin felt elated.
Yu Fei’s company was also quite strong, and if she could collaborate with them, it would be a significant infusion for Xinxin Culture and Art.
Coupled with the influence of Dali Group, it could nicely catapult Xinxin Culture and Art to a major leap forward, developing it into a first-class company, which had always been Zhao Xinxin’s dream.
Over the years, she had been working hard toward this dream.
With the successful example of Dali Group, Zhao Xinxin was filled with even more confidence.
For such a big opportunity, Zhao Xinxin was naturally very enthusiastic.
“Could you be more specific, Mr.
Yu?” Zhao Xinxin asked with a smile.
Yu Fei laughed, his laughter becoming somewhat strange.
He pulled a card out of his pocket and handed it to Zhao Xinxin, “The specifics are quite complicated and can’t be explained in a short time.
Today is just a social gathering, and it’s not suitable to discuss too much.
If Miss Zhao is interested, come here at six o’clock tomorrow afternoon, and we can discuss it slowly.
I believe we can provide a very satisfying outcome for Miss Zhao.”
When Zhao Xinxin saw that what Yu Fei handed her was a suite card, her face immediately turned cold.
She quickly realized what Yu Fei was hinting at—he actually wanted to use this situation to exploit her sexually, which was despicable.
She thought it was a good opportunity, but it turned out that Yu Fei was actually harboring intentions towards her.
Seeing his smug look, she did not expect him to be so vile and disgusting.
“Humph, it seems I approached the wrong person.
Please put away your things; don’t insult my sight.
As for what we discussed earlier, consider it as if it never happened, please.” Zhao Xinxin said unapologetically.
She had built her business from scratch, working step by step to its current size, all based on her business capabilities, not her body.
Thus, she found such propositions extremely offensive and felt they were a profound insult to her.
Zhao Xinxin was already a woman of strong character.
Hearing Zhao Xinxin’s rejection, Yu Fei didn’t show anger but rather smiled.
Since they were already talking openly, he didn’t need to pretend anymore and directly said, “Zhao Xinxin, don’t be so quick to refuse.
You should know this is a golden opportunity.
If you can secure this partnership, you should be aware of its significant implications for your company.
Why must women always pretend to be so virtuous?
Don’t tell me you haven’t engaged in such transactions over the years.
I’m offering you a fantastic deal; are you sure you want to reject me?”
Yu Fei spoke with full confidence, as if no woman could refuse his proposal.
His composed demeanor indicated that he had done such things many times before.
Zhao Xinxin had always had nothing but contempt for such people—only disgust.
“Get lost,” Zhao Xinxin snapped.
“Don’t think you’re incredible just because you have some stinking money, no matter how well you dress, you are just a scumbag.”
It was then that Yu Fei’s expression finally became angry: “Hmph, bitch, who do you think you are?
It’s your good fortune that I fancy you, giving you a great opportunity and you refuse it, playing the saint after being a whore, do you really think you are still a virgin?
Humph, since you refuse to toast, you will be forced to drink a forfeit.
Don’t blame me for being ruthless.
Your little company, I could destroy with a wave of my hand.
I’ll give you one last chance, are you sure you want to reject me?”
Failing to seduce her, he resorted directly to threats.
Zhao Xinxin really wanted to throw her glass at Yu Fei’s face, but she knew this rich heir couldn’t be messed with by her.
If she couldn’t afford to offend him, she could only stay far away.
“Do as you like.” Zhao Xinxin ignored Yu Fei’s threat and turned away.
Yu Fei grew even angrier, unable to tolerate being defied like this, which made him erupt in rage.
He had always been successful in his tactics against many so-called powerful women, but today he faced a setback with this woman, which infuriated him even more.
Men are like that; the more they can’t have something, the more they want it.
Once a man’s possessive desire is triggered, it becomes much more intense.
“Bitch, face given but not taken,” Yu Fei yelled angrily.
“Slap!”
A loud slap rang out, and Zhao Xinxin was startled; the slap hadn’t landed on her face, nor had she struck anyone.
Whose hand was that?
Her eyes darted around and then she saw a figure standing in front of her.
“Tangyu!” Recognizing the person before her, Zhao Xinxin was also surprised.
She truly had not expected Tangyu to suddenly appear.
She had come with Su Yaoji to the Haidong Aquatic Pavilion but they had separated upon arrival.
Yu Fei only felt a burning sensation on his face, shocked to have been slapped by a man.
Feeling the stares from all around turning towards them, Yu Fei’s face instantly contorted into a terrible grimace, his eyes glaring at Tangyu: “You dare to hit me?”
“Because you deserve it,” Tangyu said calmly.
This scumbag really deserved it.
“Fuck, you’re looking for death.” Yu Fei completely lost his temper and lunged crazily at Tangyu, but as quickly as he advanced, he was just as quickly thwarted.
Tangyu ruthlessly kicked him in the abdomen, sending him tumbling backward, rolling on the ground before stopping.
Yu Fei was in extreme pain, clutching his stomach, his facial muscles twitching continuously.
He pressed hard against his stomach with both hands, his eyes flickering with murderous intent.
A rich heir like him, when had he ever been beaten like this?
Crowds always gathered at the scene of excitement, spectators’ eyes drawn to the action.
Several acquaintances of Yu Fei, who had good relations with him, quickly approached, and someone had already helped Yu Fei to his feet.
