My Wife, The Ice Queen President

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Just as he had gotten halfway undressed, an angry voice shouted, “What are you doing?”

“Why get so worked up? We’re all adults here, each taking what we need.” Ye Xiong continued to undress, quickly removing his shirt, revealing a robust physique. “Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone that you sexually harassed me.”

“Vulgar!” Du Yuehua cursed, glaring at him as she loudly said, “Put your clothes back on now, or I won’t be polite.”

Ye Xiong glanced at Du Yuehua and saw her eyes widened in wrath, as if flames might burst forth from them. It was clear that she was truly angry.

He hastily dressed himself and timidly asked, “President Du, what’s all this about?”

“I should be the one asking you that! What’s with the stripping? What do you think I am, a street prostitute?” Du Yuehua said furiously.

He didn’t see her as a prostitute, but rather as a frustrated and neglected housewife.

That comment, Ye Xiong dared only to mutter to himself, never daring to say it out loud.

“President Du, I thought you…”

“You thought just because my man is dead, I’ve become the kind of frustrated and neglected housewife that you can take advantage of?” A tear slid down Du Yuehua’s eye.

Ye Xiong didn’t expect her to cry so suddenly, completely taken aback by her reaction, he hurriedly explained, “That’s not what I meant, just… ah, I don’t know how to explain.”

“Tell it straight!” Du Yuehua said, pulling out a tissue and wiping her tears.

“Then I’ll just be blunt,” Ye Xiong said. “Your hotel, it’s worth at least a hundred million, right?”

“You know it’s worth hundreds of millions and still you offer a million?” Du Yuehua said, fuming.

“That’s more like it. Just now, so many people came in to negotiate with you, and you didn’t even talk to them for long. But you took an interest in me, a guy with only a million, and even chatted with me so happily. I’m not particularly outstanding, just handsome. In such a situation, how could I not think otherwise?” Ye Xiong explained.

Thud!

Du Yuehua couldn’t help but let out a laugh.

Upon reflection, this guy’s explanation didn’t seem entirely unreasonable.

“You really don’t remember me?” Du Yuehua asked, noticing the puzzled look in Ye Xiong’s eyes, and continued to prompt, “One week ago, on Construction Avenue.”

When Ye Xiong’s gaze fell upon Du Yuehua’s face, enlightenment dawned on him in an instant.

So this young lady was the same woman he had rescued from the Porsche that day. It had been a rush, and her face was covered in blood; he hadn’t recognized her at the time. Now that she mentioned it, he finally remembered.

“So it’s you.” Ye Xiong came to a realization.

In that case, the reason she had talked with him for so long wasn’t because of his allure or because he was handsome or the intention to seduce him. It was simply because he was her rescuer.

“I thought the man who saved me and silently walked away would definitely be a great hero, but I didn’t expect…” Du Yuehua didn’t finish her sentence, hinting at her disappointment through her tone.

“President Du, I risked my life to pull you out of that car. You have no idea how terrifying that moment was, a life-and-death situation…” Ye Xiong went on with great flair, spitting as he spoke. “If it hadn’t been for me, you would definitely have been dead by now. Given that, shouldn’t you show some gratitude?”

“How do you want me to do that?” Du Yuehua had a bad feeling.

“To thank me for saving your life, shouldn’t you transfer the hotel to me? Of course, I won’t let you do it for free, I’ll still pay you. My one million…”

“That’s enough!”

As she continued to listen, Du Yuehua felt she might go insane.

A million to buy a hotel worth over a hundred million? She’d never seen a man as shameless as this in her entire life. Could he possibly be any more shameless?

“I have an idea. I don’t want to transfer the hotel for now. You can help me manage it. Consider your one million an investment. If the hotel makes money, I’ll give you twenty percent of the profits. If it doesn’t, your one million is as good as lost, how about that?” Du Yuehua asked.

“Uh, isn’t twenty percent too little?” Ye Xiong thought for a moment and extended five fingers, “Fifty-fifty.”

“Okay, as you say.”

Ever since her husband died, the Feiyang International Hotel often had people causing trouble, and now they had lost almost ninety percent of their customers. Now the hotel was losing money every day. If Ye Xiong could turn the hotel’s losses into profits, she didn’t mind splitting the profits with him.

“President Du, your word alone is no proof. Shouldn’t we draw up a contract?” Ye Xiong magically produced a contract from behind his back and handed it over.

Upon seeing it, Du Yuehua’s face changed dramatically.

The contract turned out to be a management contract. It stated that Ye Xiong would take over the management of the hotel and once it made profits, they would share them. It just had some blanks that needed filling out.

It turned out that his real aim was to get his hands on the hotel’s management rights.

It seemed she had underestimated him.

With a smile, Du Yuehua filled in the profit-sharing terms and the transfer of management rights, but she still retained the highest authority – if the hotel failed to turn a profit, she could fire Ye Xiong anytime.

As soon as Du Yuehua finished signing the last part, Ye Xiong picked up the contract and couldn’t help but burst into hearty laughter.

“I’ve struck it rich, this time I’ve really hit the jackpot,” Ye Xiong gushed deliriously.

“Don’t celebrate too early. Let me tell you, the hotel is still losing money. If things go wrong, your million could just go down the drain,” Du Yuehua warned in advance.

“President Du, how about we make a bet?” Ye Xiong proposed with a cheeky grin.

“What’s the bet?”

“Within three months, I’ll turn the hotel from losses to profits, and you’ll grant me one request,” Ye Xiong said.

“What request?” Du Yuehua didn’t believe he could do it.

Ye Xiong glanced at her mature and alluring face. This kind of woman was most lethal to a young man like him. He originally wanted to ask her to spend a night with him, but thinking that would be too shameful, he changed it to, “If I win, you give me a kiss.”

“Disgusting!” Du Yuehua cursed.

“What, you scared? Are you worried that after kissing me, you’ll fall in love with me?” Ye Xiong teased with a chuckle.

“Who’s scared, a kiss then a kiss,” Du Yuehua refused to believe she would lose. “What if you don’t manage to do it, what then?”

“If I don’t pull it off, I’ll spend a night with you unconditionally, no charge,” Ye Xiong said exceedingly seriously.

“Get out!”

Du Yuehua grabbed a file folder and hurled it at him hard.

When Ye Xiong left Du Yuehua’s office, he was holding a contract in his hand and had a beaming smile on his face.

By the time he found Wang Tong, that guy was already chatting happily with Xiao Mei, laughing out loud together, looking surprisingly close.

“Did I come at a bad time?” Ye Xiong said with a mischievous grin as he walked into the treatment room.

Seeing Ye Xiong coming in, Xiao Mei quickly toned down her smile and said, “Xiao Douding, I’m leaving now.”

“Take care, ha!” Wang Tong waved casually, with a roguish expression on his face.

How much time had passed for the two of them to become so close?

Ye Xiong thought he was awesome at picking up girls, but compared to Wang Tong, he felt like nothing.

“Well done, dude, you’ve even managed to charm someone like Xiao Mei, who’s suffering from menopausal syndrome. I have to hand it to you. Just look at that flirty demeanor just now, she’s totally got the hots for you,” Ye Xiong snickered.
