Zhou Haiyue?
Must be Director Zhou, right?
This was the first time Ye Cangtian learned Director Zhou's full name!
"What do you want Zhou Haiyue for?" Ye Cangtian asked.
"To get her money!"
"She owes you money?"
"That's none of your business, kid. You talk too much. Stop the nonsense and call out Zhou Haiyue at once!" the lean man said impatiently.
Ye Cangtian raised his eyebrows and was about to make a move to drive these guys away when Director Zhou's voice came from behind him:
"Why are you here again?"
Director Zhou walked out of the company, her face grim. "Didn't I tell you? I don't have any more money for you, and I won't give you another cent in the future. Please stop bothering Ruoyu!"
The lean man sneered, "How can a director of a major company have no money!"
"Also, Ruoyu is my daughter. If you don't give me money, I'll have to take Ruoyu away!"
"You... you scoundrel!"
Director Zhou gritted her teeth and said resolutely, "I won't let you take Ruoyu, nor will I give you another cent. Leave! Otherwise, I'll call the police!"
For Ruoyu's sake, she had already given this man a lot of money, but this man was like a bottomless pit, always asking her for money.
This scoundrel was named Jiang Tao, a scoundrel and a gambler, and very irresponsible.
Although he was Ruoyu's biological father, he had also neglected his responsibility when Ye Cangtian's best friend gave birth. His best friend died of dystocia after the child was born.
However, as the child's biological father, this scoundrel had actually planned to abandon the child at that time.
Zhou Haiyue could not bear to see this, so she adopted the child.
But in these few years, Jiang Tao had repeatedly used Ruoyu as a threat, extorting money from Zhou Haiyue. If she didn't give him money, he would take his daughter back and sell her!
The first few times, Zhou Haiyue endured it, but the man was like a bottomless pit, demanding more money each time.
So Zhou Haiyue had finally had enough!
At this moment, the man named Jiang Tao opposite her sneered, "I'll say it once: either give me money, or I'll take Ruoyu away."
"Dream on. I will never let Ruoyu go with you!" Director Zhou said firmly, biting her lip.
Even if this scoundrel took his daughter back, he would probably sell her to human traffickers.
This beast would do anything for money!
"I'm just a scoundrel, what can you do to me?"
Jiang Tao sneered. He was the child's father, and even the police wouldn't dare to do anything to him!
Director Zhou's face turned pale with anger, but she was helpless against this scoundrel.
Just as she was anxiously wondering what to do, Ye Cangtian suddenly smiled. "You say you're helpless? Sorry, I specialize in dealing with helplessness!"
"Who are you? Are you meddling in other people's business?" Jiang Tao looked at Ye Cangtian and frowned.
"No, I just find you displeasing!"
Ye Cangtian now basically understood what was going on. This guy was probably the little girl's biological father.
But this biological father not only neglected his daughter but also extorted money from the adoptive mother, Director Zhou, multiple times.
He always disliked such beasts!
Moreover, this was his fiancée's company. How could he let this guy cause trouble here?
Jiang Tao was a thug. What hadn't he done over the years to get money?
He had committed theft, extortion, and even kidnapping. He was a regular at the police station, so he wasn't afraid of Ye Cangtian at all.
However, in the next moment, a fist flew directly towards his face.
"Bang!"
Ye Cangtian's punch was neither light nor heavy, but it directly knocked out two of his broken teeth.
Jiang Tao was stunned. He was about to utter some harsh words.
However, he saw Ye Cangtian throwing punches one after another.
On the other side, the four thugs who had followed Jiang Tao rushed forward in a swarm.
But before they could get close to Ye Cangtian, they were all stopped by Li Da Zhuang, who easily took them down.
A moment later!
Jiang Tao was in a terrible state, his face covered in bruises, several teeth knocked out, and blood continuously spurting from his mouth.
However, this guy was really willing to risk his life for money. Lying on the ground, he held up one finger: "I won't get up without a hundred thousand!"
This guy was trying to extort me?
Ye Cangtian sneered at this, lit a cigarette, and said lightly, "I can pay a million to have someone make you disappear without a trace, believe it or not?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Tao immediately scrambled up and fled with the thugs in a panic.
As the saying goes, it takes one devil to subdue another!
Thugs like Jiang Tao, who prey on the weak, are afraid of encountering people who are even more ruthless than them.
Being beaten to death and revived just now made this guy realize that Ye Cangtian was not to be trifled with! So he left decisively.
After these guys fled, Director Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at Ye Cangtian.
Although she still didn't like Ye Cangtian much, since he had helped her just now, she still said thank you.
Seeing Director Zhou turn to walk back into the company indifferently, Ye Cangtian was speechless.
After all, I just helped you drive away that useless guy, and all you say is thank you?
...
As soon as Director Zhou entered the company, she saw the little girl hiding at the entrance and peeking. She exclaimed, "Ruoyu!"
"Mom!" Zhou Ruoyu's eyes were red, and she looked wronged.
Director Zhou immediately stepped forward and hugged the little girl, comforting her, "It's okay, Mom will definitely protect you and won't let that scoundrel touch you!"
Not far behind, Ye Cangtian watched this scene and couldn't help but sigh.
If he didn't know that Director Zhou was single, anyone who saw this scene would believe they were a mother and daughter!
However, Director Zhou looked quite attractive when her maternal instincts kicked in.
She was wearing a business suit, a white short-sleeved shirt on top and a black pencil skirt below. Her figure was like a ripe peach.
Especially when she squatted down, certain prominent parts were particularly noticeable.
Watching the mother and daughter stand up, he pretended to cough to cover himself, and then said, "Director Zhou, I think there might be some misunderstanding between us?"
Director Zhou pulled her daughter to her side and said indifferently, "What misunderstanding?"
"I just feel that your impression of me isn't very good!"
"Because I don't like idlers!" Director Zhou replied, then took her daughter and left.
She didn't deny it because she indeed had a bad impression of Ye Cangtian, simply because he was always frivolous and idle, just like that scoundrel Jiang Tao.
Therefore, in Director Zhou's impression, she never had a good opinion of people who were always unseemly!
If Tang Xin Wan hadn't implicitly approved, she would never have allowed someone like Ye Cangtian into the company.
"Am I that annoying?"
Ye Cangtian touched his cheek. Although he wasn't a peerless handsome man, he had some personal charm, right?
Most women who interacted with him would fall in love with him involuntarily, but why was it that with Director Zhou, she seemed to show disdain?
