"Ye Yun, you idiot, are you crazy? You can't do anything but spew threats."
"Did you drink too much again and haven't sobered up?"
"You? A worthless drunkard and gambler, you think you deserve to make Big Brother pay ten times the price?"
Ning Dafu's siblings-in-law burst into laughter, utterly scoffing at Ye Yun's words.
He didn't know where Ye Yun got the one million, of course.
But he didn't care.
As for threats...
Heh!
Ye Yun paid no mind to the mockery from Ning Dafu's siblings-in-law.
He clearly remembered a cosmetics brand that appeared in his previous life called Xinba Cosmetics.
At that time, Xinba Cosmetics partnered with a major influencer for live sales. The marketing was excellent, and it broke sales records.
In just one night, the revenue even surpassed twenty million.
However!
In a mere three days, Xinba Cosmetics plummeted from its pedestal.
Distributors who had heavily stocked Xinba Cosmetics suffered devastating losses, some even going bankrupt.
First, professional anti-counterfeiters exposed that Xinba Cosmetics was made with industrial flavorings.
Later, news broke that users who used Xinba Cosmetics suffered facial disfigurement.
Once this news hit, not only were the influencers who promoted it banned across the entire internet, but the CEO of Xinba Cosmetics was also imprisoned for this.
This incident occupied the trending search list for a long time in his previous life.
Ye Yun would never forget it.
Whether Ning Dafu's cosmetics company survived this disaster in his past life, he couldn't recall.
But this time, he was absolutely confident he could make them unable to escape this calamity!
"Since that's the case, we'll just have to wait and see." Ye Yun glanced at Ning Dafu and the others before turning to leave.
Ning Dafu chuckled, not bothering to utter any more harsh words.
In his eyes, Ye Yun was at the very bottom of society, clearly putting on a brave front.
He had seen countless such arrogant youths who knew nothing of the world, capable of nothing but empty boasts.
Ning Dafu felt quite pleased at the moment.
He had successfully kicked Li Menghan out of the company and also managed to get one million yuan in compensation from her.
This feeling of making her swallow bitter medicine with no recourse was truly satisfying.
"Menghan, are you okay? Are you injured anywhere?"
When Li Mengyao arrived at the police station after being notified, she asked with concern upon seeing a somewhat haggard Li Menghan.
"I'm fine, sister. Why are you here?" Li Menghan asked in surprise.
"How dare you say that! Do you know the trouble you've caused? You hit someone on the head with a beer bottle! Menghan, if you get a criminal record, it will ruin your life! How will you ever get married?" Li Mengyao wept with tearful eyes.
"I'd rather not get married. Living alone is fine!" Li Menghan said indignantly.
"Are you trying to make me die of anger? My life is already ruined, I can't let yours be ruined too! Even if you don't think about yourself, think about Mom and Dad, think about Menghao! If they knew, how heartbroken would they be!!" Li Mengyao looked at her with disappointment, as if she were iron that could not be forged.
Li Menghan fell silent. After being detained for a night, she knew she had indeed caused immense trouble.
But Li Mengyao clearly wasn't going to let it end there, and asked,
"Tell me, why did you hit him? You're not usually like this. Why were you so impulsive this time?"
"That scoundrel Ning Xiaoming insulted you, sister, saying it's better to be his mistress than marry a drunkard and a good-for-nothing! If others hadn't stopped me, I wouldn't have just cracked his head open, I would have put several more holes in him!" Li Menghan blurted out in her agitation.
But as soon as the words left her mouth, she regretted it.
As expected, Li Mengyao's eyes became even redder.
It wasn't because she felt she had chosen the wrong partner.
It was out of deep sisterly love that moved her.
Li Menghan, momentarily speechless, also saw Ye Yun standing nearby.
Her expression immediately turned grim.
Hostility, hatred!
If looks could kill, Ye Yun would likely be reduced to nothing but dregs!
After all was said and done, Ye Yun was still the root cause of this incident!
If this guy wasn't so useless, would her sister have been insulted, and would she have ended up cracking Ning Xiaoming's head open?
"What are you doing here? Don't think you can change my opinion of you by tricking Sister Wang out of a few thousand yuan! Get lost, or I'll kill you!"
Li Menghan glared at him furiously, as if she were looking at her mortal enemy.
"Li Menghan, what are you doing! You're a girl, constantly talking about killing. Did you learn nothing from all those years of schooling? Or do you plan to stay in there for the rest of your life?" Li Mengyao quickly held back her sister, who was on the verge of a breakdown.
"Education is for reasoning with people. There's no need for reason with such an animal. As long as it means my sister can have a second chance at life, I'm willing to stay in here forever!"
It proved that when a woman went mad, she could say anything, completely disregarding the presence of the police officers nearby.
"I heard you were taken to the detention center, so I came to see. I'm glad you're alright." Ye Yun said with a bitter smile, not angered by Li Menghan's attitude.
"See? Who wants you to see me!" Li Menghan retorted.
Li Mengyao, standing beside them, couldn't help but grit her teeth and say,
"Menghan, you only got out this time because of him!"
"What, does this good-for-nothing know some big shot?" Li Menghan sneered.
"Mr. Ning's side asked for a million yuan. I don't know how he managed it, but he did resolve this matter." Li Mengyao was also puzzled at this moment.
Ning Dafu's attitude last night was so strong, refusing to back down without a million yuan.
But today, he obediently signed the mediation agreement.
As for Ye Yun producing the million yuan?
Impossible!
Even if he had it, he'd likely take that money straight to the casino or the bar!
But there was clearly no time for detailed questions now.
"Wang Meiling helped to put in a word." Ye Yun had already thought of an excuse. Wang Meiling was a major client of Ning Dafu's, and Li Menghan also knew that Wang Meiling valued him greatly. She should believe it.
As expected, upon hearing this, Li Mengyao believed about half of it.
However, at this moment, she became even angrier.
She was actually saved by the very person who had ruined her sister's life – a complete humiliation!
But after spending a night inside, she couldn't bear to go back.
Gritting her teeth, still seething with anger, Li Menghan turned to leave. As she walked past Ye Yun, she warned him,
"You are the main culprit in this matter. If you think I'll be grateful to you, I'm telling you, dream on!"
"Ye Yun, I'm warning you, you'd better sign the divorce agreement quickly, or we'll both end up on the news!"
The implication of "ending up on the news" was clear.
One was the victim, the other the perpetrator.
Li Mengyao quickly chased after her sister, preventing her from doing anything foolish in her anger.
Ye Yun stood there with a bitter expression, not following the sisters.
Li Menghan was like an active volcano at this moment, easily ignited.
"She... is she really your sister-in-law?" The police officer beside him had a strange expression.
"Yes." Ye Yun sighed.
"Sigh..." The police officer shook his head and then withdrew. He had overheard most of what happened.
Reality, indeed, was more dramatic than any television drama.
