Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 623: The Tyrant’s Wife-Chasing Redemption Arc
Xie Mingyu and Shangxue spent most of the day playing, had dinner at a Western restaurant, and only after tiring out when night fell did they plan to return to their island to rest.
Originally, Xie Mingyu wanted to play a bit longer, but Shangxue persuaded him otherwise.
Shangxue was worried about his health, fearing he would be too tired if they played too long.
Even though Xie Mingyu repeatedly said, "It’s fine, I’m fully recovered, you don’t have to worry about me. It’s rare for me to come out with you, and I want you to enjoy it to the fullest."
"I’ve already had a great time. There’s plenty of time, we can come back and play tomorrow," Shangxue persuaded.
Xie Mingyu had no choice but to agree and took her back.
However, just as they were about to get on the yacht, a group of people suddenly came and blocked their way.
There were at least a dozen men who appeared to be bodyguards, and what’s more frightening is that they were holding guns.
Shangxue’s face changed. Their own bodyguards could fight, but they rarely used guns. Plus, they weren’t carrying guns, making it completely impossible for them to match these people.
She shielded Xie Mingyu behind her, but was immediately pulled behind by Xie Mingyu.
"I’m your man; when is it your turn to protect me?" Xie Mingyu whispered reproachfully.
Shangxue frowned and said, "Yu, this is not the time to be stubborn, just listen to me."
"You should be the one listening to me," Xie Mingyu insisted.
Soon, a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties walked over from the other side.
As he approached, the bodyguards automatically made way for him.
"Are you Mr. Xie Mingyu?" The middle-aged man actually recognized Xie Mingyu?
Shangxue felt even more anxious, and without regard to Xie Mingyu’s willingness, she forcibly stood in front of Xie Mingyu and answered the middle-aged man, "Yes, this is our Mr. Xie. Since you know who our Mr. Xie is, you should also know what will happen if he’s harmed. Not only will the Xie Family of Tong City take action, but so will the Zhan Family of Jiangcheng. Madam Zhan of Jiangcheng is Mr. Xie’s sister."
"We mean no harm. It’s just that our young lady offended Mr. Xie, and Mr. Xie and this young lady gave her a minor punishment. She suffered a lot, cried for half a day, and was afraid of having her hair shaved. Isn’t the punishment you’ve given her enough? Could you please find a way to solve her problem?" the middle-aged man said.
Shangxue turned her head to look at Xie Mingyu; it turns out these people are from Meng Ying’s family.
Fortunately, it was just a minor punishment back then, and Xie Mingyu did not have to make a move.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be this situation now.
"Solving the trouble is certainly no problem, but we also need to know who you are," Shangxue smiled slightly.
The middle-aged man introduced himself.
Apparently, Meng Ying is a Malaysian Chinese.
Since the time of her great-grandfather, they have been doing business in Malaysia, amassing considerable assets through several generations, and have bought an island in the Maldives for family vacations.
Meng Ying is the only girl of this generation and is greatly pampered; she was just on vacation here.
Unexpectedly, she encountered Xie Mingyu, and such a thing happened.
Originally, she didn’t know that this matter was related to Xie Mingyu, but her scalp itched a lot, she cried and wailed, and even visiting the hospital didn’t help.
The doctor said it might be some allergy and suggested shaving her hair to check it out.
Meng Ying was nowhere near agreeing to it. For a girl, shaving her hair would be worse than death.
Thus, she refused absolutely, but the itching was tormenting her, making her want to die.
Her luck was good; it just so happened that her brother was on the island, along with a friend who’s an expert in Chinese medicine, visiting their family’s island.
When he checked her symptoms, he immediately told them it wasn’t an allergy but seemed more like poisoning.
However, they couldn’t tell what poison it was.
But they detected a medicinal smell in her hair and asked if she had been poisoned by someone during recent contacts.
Meng Ying then remembered her conflict with Xie Mingyu and Shangxue and told them about it.
Her older brother Mr. Meng promptly investigated Xie Mingyu’s identity. Although it wasn’t easy, they managed to uncover some details within half a day.
Xie Mingyu’s looks were outstanding, making him easily noticeable.
Standing in a crowd, he was like a walking spotlight, attracting attention wherever he goes.
They soon took a photo of him, checked it, and identified who he was.
After identifying him, they naturally discovered his relationship with Ye Ningwan.
Mr. Meng’s friend advised him not to create difficulties and to simply invite the person to cure Meng Ying.
Actually, even without a friend’s advice, Mr. Meng understood.
Although the Meng Family had long settled in Malaysia and had little business dealings with China, this world changes fast. Who can predict what might happen in the future?
Having one more friend is always better than making an enemy.
Therefore, Mr. Meng first scolded Meng Ying, telling her to apologize properly when people arrived and not to cause more trouble.
Meng Ying was nearly tormented to death; she even had thoughts of dying, so causing trouble was out of the question.
Xie Mingyu and Shangxue were brought over, and upon entering, Meng Ying rushed forward.
Xie Mingyu was startled and quickly shielded Shangxue, only to be pushed aside by Shangxue, who intercepted Meng Ying.
"Miss Meng, this enthusiasm is hard for us to handle," Shangxue said.
Mr. Meng was embarrassed and quickly ordered someone to pull Meng Ying away, then greeted Xie Mingyu.
"This must be Young Master Xie! Apologies, my sister is young and naive for offending Young Master Xie, please forgive her."
Mr. Meng spoke politely, and Xie Mingyu, understanding the subtleties of interpersonal interactions in recent years while managing the company, quickly smiled and said to Mr. Meng, "Mr. Meng, you’re too kind. Your sister is just a bit lively. I’m a man, how could I hold a grudge against a young girl?"
"As long as there’s no grudge, what about my sister’s current situation?"
Shangxue said, "Miss Meng was too close at the time, and I accidentally sprinkled the medicinal powder on her. I have a remedy to relieve the itch, but it requires washing; it’s better to let someone help Miss Meng use it!"
Mr. Meng showed a surprised expression, not expecting them to hand over the antidote so easily.
He was, of course, overjoyed, quickly ordering someone to take it over and inquire how to use it for Meng Ying.
His friend, who’s knowledgeable in Chinese medicine, stepped forward to ask Shangxue, "Excuse me, miss, could you be Madam Zhan?"
Shangxue smiled, "I’m not; my name is Shangxue and I’m from the Xie Family. Madam Zhan is a great beauty, you mustn’t mistake me for her."
The person was embarrassed and hastily explained, "I’ve heard she’s a great beauty, but I’ve never met her. Her medical skills are extraordinary; I’ve always wanted to meet her but never had the chance."
"If you have the opportunity to visit our country, feel free to visit the Xie Family, and they can introduce you," Shangxue said.
The person thanked her repeatedly.
Mr. Meng also expressed his gratitude to Shangxue, and apologized to them, saying that Meng Ying was young and naive, asking them not to hold a grudge against Meng Ying.
