My Wife, The Ice Queen President

After he had completed his work, Ye Xiong returned to the accommodation at the construction site.

Five minutes later, Ye Xiong stepped out of the shower, and his entire demeanor had changed.

He was five feet and eleven inches tall and was covered by branded apparel from top to bottom. Besides that, he was also wearing imported leather shoes and his hair that was barely longer than a finger was styled dazzlingly straight. He looked just like a superstar.

“It’s only been a couple of minutes, but you’ve completely dressed up?” His roommate, Wang Tong was speechless.

“You would too if you were held at gunpoint.”

Wang Tong had already gotten used to Ye Xiong’s delusion a long time ago.

After all, this punk had barely been here for six months, and he had already cooked up stories saying that he was once a hitman, a bodyguard, that he had visited several countries in Europe, or that he had tasted what the beauties of over a dozen nations had to offer.

However, all of these were mild compared to the time where he had supposedly survived being buried underground for an entire month.

‘If he was really living such a wild lifestyle, why would he even bother coming to the Xinyi Group to be a construction worker?’

I forgot to mention this earlier but the two were construction workers.

Yes, it is also due to the fact that Ye Xiong was merely a construction worker that Wang Tong found his delusions of grandeur dubious.

Fortunately for Wang Tong, Ye Xiong was a pretty good person aside from his occasional bursts of delusions. He was a generous person and was also one of virtue that treated his brothers well at work.

Just take today as an example, when Wang Tong had mentioned that he had never ever eaten at Oriental Hotel, Ye Xiong stated that he had a friend holding a wedding there and brought Wang Tong along with him.

Oriental Hotel was the most luxurious hotel in all of Jiangnan City and tonight, it was fully booked.

Yang Xinyi was the president of Xinyi Group, and she was about to marry Haoyang Group’s CEO, He Haodong at Oriental Hotel tonight. This was an event that had shaken the very foundations of Jiangnan City.

Speaking of Xinyi Group, one should also mention the group’s president, Yang Xinyi.

Yang Xinyi was the ideal woman in the hearts of all unmarried men. Not only did she possess immense wealth, but she was also armed with beauty and intelligence. Furthermore, she was also the sole daughter of the group’s chairman, Yang Dingguo.

As such, obtaining Xinyi would be like obtaining the entirety of the group.

Usually, there were plenty of wealthy people or people in positions of power who hounded after her, but in the end, it was He Haodong of the Haoyang Group that had managed to win her heart.

In spite of this, nothing that was mentioned had anything to do with Ye Xiong. After all, he did not even know Yang Xinyi and was only sneaking in to have a meal with everyone else today.

“Brother Xiong, do you really know Yang Xinyi?” Wang Tong doubtfully questioned Ye Xiong.

After all, one of them was the president of the group, and the other was a mighty construction worker that worked in a construction team under Xinyi Group’s flag. The difference in stature between these two was like heaven and earth, so it was pretty hard for Wang Tong to imagine these two knowing one another.

“We were primary schoolmates.”

“Then, why didn’t you ask her to assist you in your job search?” Wang Tong voiced his doubts.

After all, with someone in such a position of power as a friend, all it would take was a single word and Ye Xiong would obtain an easy job that was much better than construction work.

“Well, I enjoy this work a lot. Just imagine building a tall and mighty skyscraper with your very own hands, isn’t that amazing?!” Ye Xiong peered into the sky with a look of pride on his face.

“You’re crazy.”

The two walked in and just as the elevator was about to close shut, the voice of a female could be heard. “Hold on.”

A high-heel-wearing woman with wavy long hair equipped with red-rimmed glasses walked in. The beauty was around twenty-four years of age, and she was around five feet and ten inches in height. She wore a black gown, and her eyes were like an autumn lake, gorgeous. Her brows were as thin as a fine willow, her nose slender, and upon those thin lips of hers, a dull-colored layer of lipstick covered it. Be it in poise or looks, she was astounding in both aspects.

“Hey there beautiful, which floor are you heading to?” Wang Tong greeted her!

Not only was Wang Tong short and skinny, but he also looked slightly malnourished. When he stood beside the high-heel-wearing beauty, it could be seen that he was a head shorter than her.

In spite of this, he had a child-like face and as such, he looked especially innocent. No one would suspect him of being a pervert.

“Eighth floor, thanks!” The woman spoke lightly and there was not a trace of pompousness detected in her voice.

“Are you here to attend the wedding as well?”

“Well, Yang Xinyi is my schoolmate,” the beauty replied.

“Oh, you’re a friend of Yang Xinyi too I see. What a coincidence, my friend here used to be her schoolmate as well.”

It was at that point that Xiao Fangfang noticed Ye Xiong and mentally yelped in surprise.

The man before her was too dashing!

He was around five feet and eleven inches in height. Not only was he physically well built in all aspects, but he also had an air about him that made him look especially elegant and cool.

Of course, this was only due to the fact that she was unaware of Ye Xiong’s occupation.

‘Damn you Yang Xinyi! How dare you not introduce your handsome schoolmates to me! I’ll give you hell later, just you wait!’ Xiao Fangfang mentally berated.

“Xiao Fangfang, glad to meet you.” Xiao Fangfang voluntarily introduced herself.

” Ye Xiong, Ye, as in leaf, and Xiong, as in majestic. ¹ ”

Xiao Fangfang revealed her row of pearly whites and asked, “So, Mr. Ye, when were you schoolmates with Xinyi?”

“Primary school.”

“You were in the same primary school as her too?” Xiao Fangfang asked in surprise. “Me too, but why haven’t I seen you?”

“Well… I was an ugly duckling back then. I wasn’t really noticeable.”

“Which class were you in?”

“Umm… Oh, we’ve reached the eight floor, let us head in!” With that, Ye Xiong cut the conversation short and gestured for Xiao Fangfang to enter first.

‘What a gentleman!’

“Which seat are we in?” Xiao Fangfang asked.

“Well, I already made some plans with my friends. I’ll make sure to grab a drink with you after I’ve had my dinner.”

“That’s a promise.”

With that, Xiao Fangfang walked off in her high heels.

Ye Xiong let out a breath of relief. They had been inches away from disaster. Ye Xiong really wanted to give Wang Tong a big smack on the face, as he had attempted to pick-up a girl for no reason at all.

The whole floor was filled with food, and there was also a sea of people. This was an event of epic proportions.

“Brother Xiong, where are we going to sit?”

Xiao Fangfang’s sudden appearance had ruined Ye Xiong’s plans, and if she were to question Yang Xinyi about him, the jig will be up.

However, as there were more than a thousand people present, the chances of her looking for him would be quite low.

The moment Xiao Fangfang made it to the eighth floor, she was immediately flocked by a crowd of people. As for the princess-like Yang Xinyi, she hurriedly made her way there.

“My dear bride, you look gorgeous! You’re making me green with envy.”

Yang Xinyi was wearing a purple wedding gown and there was a thin veil obscuring her face, revealing it only occasionally. There was an enigmatic air about her, and while she had used make-up, one could not spot it unless they looked closely. Despite all this, there was a slight frown to her face, as unlike any other wed-to-be, there was no ecstatic smile to her face.

“Sigh, you’re coming alone again. You really disappoint me.” Yang Xinyi pretended to be unhappy.

“I can’t believe you have the audacity to say that. To think that you’ve hidden a friend from me. I’m going to break up with you.”

“You hag, I’ve already introduced you to everyone I know! You can’t blame me for your taste!”

Yang Xinyi did not know what to say about this friend of hers. She had introduced Fangfang to several people before, but she had never fallen for any of them. Now, there was not a single person in Yang Xinyi’s friend circle that did not know about Xiao Fangfang, the old single lady with exquisite tastes.

“Well, it’s someone’s fault for hoarding some top tier stuff to herself!” Xiao Fangfang walked to her and snorted. “From his looks, are you sure you’re not keeping someone as your fallback plan?”

Yang Xinyi pointed to the crowd of males present. “All of my schoolmates are here, so take your pick.”

“I’m talking about Ye Xiong, don’t tell me you don’t know who he is,” Xiao Fangfang murmured.

“Who’s that?”

“The guy that’s five feet and eleven inches tall, wears glasses, and is your friend from primary school.”

“Err, you’re the only friend I invited from primary school. Maybe somebody’s pulling your leg?”

Xiao Fangfang’s faced darkened. Thinking back to the scene in the elevator, she suddenly realized. “Xinyi, we have a freeloader in our midst.”

Hearing this, Yang Xinyi suddenly furrowed her brows.

“There’s no harm in freeloading, but I’m worried that he has other intentions.” As the president of the Xinyi group, Xinyi carried many secrets. After giving it some thought, she stated, “I’ll assign two guards to you. Make sure you find him and make sure not to startle any of our esteemed guests.”

“I’ll definitely find him and beat him up so bad that his mother cannot even recognize him.”

Xiao Fangfang was both embarrassed and mad. This was the first time in her life where a male had finally caught her attention, but it turned out that he was a liar. This made her extremely furious, as she felt that she had been deceived.
