Omnipotent Husband System

Chapter 18: Han Lingshi's Enemy.



Hao Ren chased after Han Lingshi with a big smile on his face, however, a few moments later when he was about to call out for her, he stopped and frowned. Han Lingshi was standing before another lady. The two of them were comparable in beauty and aura. Hao Ren mumbled, "Is it just me or there are sparks flying in the void?"

*Ding: It is detected that your wife has come across her long time rival. Please diffuse the situation in a manner that it looks to be in favor of your wife.*

Hao Ren thought about the situation and said, "System, have you not heard that men should not meddle in women business."

System replied mechanically, *Host, supporting your wife can be done in many ways. It could be mental, spiritual, and physical. Your effort is support enough.*

The young man sighed and looked at the situation carefully, the lady before Han Lingshi was accompanied by two big men. Hao Ren looked around and then found the employee of the Jikan water store greeting him good by with a smile. The person was a mute, and Hao Ren thought of something before he said, "Can I trouble you for a something?"

The person was confused when Hao Ren whispered something in his ear. Thinking about it, the man nodded, and Hao Ren placed his stuff in their shop as he walked toward Han Lingshi. He spoke, " Miss Han, I apologize for the delay, I was caught up in the traffic."

Han Lingshi looked at him with a raised brow and Hao Ren winked at her discreetly as he bowed and said, "Thank you for giving me your precious time. I will not let you down."

Han Lingshi did not say anything when the lady opposite them chuckled and asked, "Little brother, who are you? What business do you have with Xiao Ling? Tell me, I can do anything she can do but ten times better."

While she said this, The lady was checking out Hao Ren, he appeared to be decent in her eyes, but she caught sight of the watch on his wrist. She could tell that Hao Ren's clothes were not particularly high level, but from the watch on his hand she thought he must be one of those elusive people and something flashed across her eyes.

Han Lingshi clenched her fists and wanted to rebuke her. However, Hao Ren stood up and blocked her with half his body and asked, "Ma'am, may I know who you are?"

The lady smiled and said, "I am Ye Shiling. President of the Crown International."

Hao Ren was surprised, he had heard about this lady, she was also one of the top shots in the Han nation business world. Her company was on a rank higher than Empress International by one decimal point different in net worth.

She was prideful and often seen making statements like, 'The crown is always above the empress or the emperor.'

Hao Ren could figure that she was rubbing it in the faces of the Han family. However, he did not know much about this person, and said, "Oh, Hello, I am Hao Ren, an aspiring business man."

Ye Shiling raised her brow and did a double take at Hao Ren before she said, "Xiao Ling, are you dabbling with anyone these days? I can tell by the appearance that this little brother is just an upstart. Shouldn't you be more focused on some serious projects, or is it because of his appearance that you gave him an appointment? I did not expect you to have such a taste."

If gazes could kill, then Ye Shiling would have been dead already. Hao Ren smiled and said, "I thought Miss Ye was a person from the higher society and had some finesse. But seeing you slandering Miss Han and me in such a manner, I wonder how your company is running in profit."

Ye Shiling's gaze turned cold. She looked at Hao Ren and said, "What makes you think that you can talk to me in this manner? Do you not realize that I can destroy your business with just a call?"

Hao Ren revealed a surprised expression and questioned, "Are you threatening me?"

Ye Shiling chuckled and said, "Do you think any roadside upstart is worth receiving a threat from me? You sure overestimate your worth."

Hao Ren smiled and said, "At least my opinion does not effect me, but think carefully, Miss Ye, your holier than thou attitude can get you in serious trouble."

Ye Shiling revealed a cold expression and said, "You are reaching for a bit too much here, don't you think? Or is it because Han Lingshi is supporting you that makes you think that you can act cocky and play a hero to protect the damsel?"

Hao Ren chuckled, his voice was so loud that it attracted attention of many people. He said, "Han Lingshi, the president of Empress International is a damsel? Miss Ye, did you take your medicine on time? Oh god, your sense of humor is just great."

Ye Shiling was shocked, this guy just called her sick, mentally sick indirectly. She clenched her fist and said, "Marc, teach him a lesson."

She was enraged and lost control. The other reason behind this was the fact that this guy was siding with Han Lingshi. Hao Ren did not know what the bad blood between the two women was but since the system issued the task it was not a simple matter.

The bodyguard behind Ye Shiling moved, and in a flash, Hao Ren was struck straight on his right cheek. The impact send him reeling on the ground and made him dizzy. Han Lingshi did not expect the situation to escalate so much and she called, "Hao Ren!"

She rushed up to check on him, and saw him bleeding from the side, and she turned to look at Ye Shiling as she said, "You will pay the price for this."

Ye Shiling smirked, but she realized that it was indeed an escalation she did not intend to have, how did she lose her control was something she could not understand. Well, she called her bodyguard back and they left quickly. She did not need any bad press.

Hao Ren took a few moments to sit up and held his jaw as he said, "Don't worry, I am fine."

Han Lingshi was on the verge of crying, she was happy that Hao Ren stood up for her. She has never sensed anything like that, but the bleeding cut on his cheek bone was akin to a stab wound on her heart. She spoke with concern, "Come on, we are going to the hospital."

Hao Ren had to go there too, and he stood up from the ground, but he did not walk where Han Lingshi was taking him. Instead he turned to walk back to the Jikan store.

Han Lingshi asked, "Where are you going?"

Hao Ren replied, "To get my weapons to attack Ye Shiling and topple her crown."

Han Lingshi was stunned and she froze in her track. She realized that Hao Ren was doing everything deliberately. Yes, the young man was using his skill of soothsaying to effect Ye Shiling. He was stirring up her emotions with his words. He walked up to the Jikan store where the mute employee stood in a corner with his mobile.

Hao Ren had told the person to record everything for some monetary reward. The guy agreed, after all, who did not like the money. Hao Ren had the guy transfer the video to his phone, and then deleted it from the employee's phone to be safe. He was not a fool to leave behind a trace of collation.

In return he paid the guy ten thousand yuan in cash so that it could not be traced. Then he picked up his stuff and left for the hospital with a dazed Han Lingshi. The girl did not say anything from the moment she saw Hao Ren acquiring the video.

Neither did the guy ask her anything, his face was aching, and he did not wish to have Han Lingshi speak much. He asked, internally, 'System, is the task complete?'

System replied, *Ding: No host, it would not be considered complete till the outcome is decided and you have twenty four hours to do so*

Hao Ren nodded and suddenly groaned, Han Lingshi asked hurriedly, "Is it aching too much? Do not worry, we are reaching the hospital soon."

Hao Ren waved his hand, but his face was swollen. Han Lingshi gripped the steering tightly and asked, "Did I ask you to come and help me? Do you know how long have I been at logger heads with that bitch?"

Hao Ren could not help but open his eyes wide as he heard Han Lingshi talking like a delinquent. Han Lingshi snapped, "What? Can I not curse? Am I not a human?"

Hao Ren wanted to speak but his face hurt like hell. He could only wave his hands in defense. Han Lingshi took a deep breath to calm herself and they arrived at the hospital. They rushed to the emergency department where the nurse assigned them a doctor.

The Doctor applied some antiseptic ointment on Hao Ren's cut and asked, "How did this happen?"

Hao Ren typed it on his phone and showed it to him, "I see, I will call the cops in the hospital and you can make a statement. Assault is a criminal act."

The young man nodded, and typed a few things for Han Lingshi, and the lady was surprised. However, she nodded in compliance. If the young man was going to take this case to the police then he would have to clarify his connection to Han Lingshi because she was present at the place during the altercation.

Han Lingshi called her lawyer, to make sure that the news does not get out. The cop arrived, but waited for a few minutes before the attorney arrived. Han Lingshi had already informed the man about the situation, while he was surprised, he knew that he had to do his job.

Hao Ren showed the video to the attorney who said, "This can be submitted as evidence, but I suggest that we file a case for slander, and threating against Ye Shiling and a leave the assault out of it."

Han Lingshi furrowed her brows and asked, "What the heck does that mean?"

The lawyer shivered and replied, "Ma'am, we can earn some goodwill in the public by stating that we do not wish to file an assault case, because it would implicate the bodyguard who was only acting on the commands of his employer. The damage to Crown International, would be much more efficient."

Han Lingshi shook her head while Hao Ren was nodded. The two of them looked at each other, and Han Lingshi asked, "Do you know that your face looks like a pig? Why are you letting her get away with this?"

Hao Ren shook his head and asked in a low tone, "Who said anything about letting anyone get away? I will have Ye Shiling grovel with helplessness for messing with you."

He looked at the attorney and said, "Mister Kane, you have till the morning to get the notice served, but make sure that the fact about legal proceedings stays under wraps."

Kane nodded and replied, "I understand, sir."

Then Hao Ren gave him a copy of the video and took medicine from the hospital clinic before leaving for home with Han Lingshi. The lady sighed and said, "I apologize for implicating you in this."

Hao Ren shook his head and said, "Firstly, you did nothing wrong, it was that lady who caused the scene. As for the fact that I defended you, forget the fact that we are married, I consider you as a friend and so do you, I suppose. If am just stay silent and take all that bullshit, what sort of a friend I am? Forget it, and just wait, your stock price is about to soar."

Han Lingshi was surprised for a bit but she nodded, a fiasco like this could cause a momentary dip in the stock price, and looking at the fact that she had a big meeting in the morning, their prices will soar and she would come out on top.

They reached Hao Ren's apartment, and Han Lingshi stayed behind for a few hours. She made sure that he was fine, and had a light dinner before leaving heavy heartedly. In the elevator, she took out her phone, and dialed a number.

The other party picked up, and Han Lingshi said coldly, "It's time."
