Chapter 226: Convert Enemies into Friends

The three took their seats. Although they’d just experienced a violent and bloody episode, Xiao Bing and Yu Miao were talking happily now. Only Liu Kexin still showed some apprehension. Xiao Bing was also surprised by Yu Miao’s psychological quality.

After they sat down, Xiao Bing and Yu Miao chatted freely. Although they had just known each other and were supposed to be rivals in love, they respected and somewhat appreciated each other.

Xiao Bing was amazed that Yu Miao, born into a wealthy family, could have such an extraordinary bearing. Yu Miao, in turn, was amazed that a noodle house owner would have such broad opinions and hold such outstanding conversations. Liu Kexin was shy and she was sitting in the middle of the two men. She bowed her head to eat and said nothing, but looked at the two with her big eyes. She looked at Xiao Bing a little more often.

From the way Liu Kexin looked at Xiao Bing, Yu Miao realized that she liked Xiao Bing. That feeling could not be completely concealed. He felt a little sad in his heart. If Xiao Bing was just an ordinary person, he would still have some confidence in competition. But now it looked like Xiao Bing was no ordinary man, plus the two knew each other earlier. Was he really too late?

“Brother Bing, I need to go to the bathroom.”

Liu Kexin stood up and looked at Xiao Bing.

Xiao Bing nodded with a smile and said, “Okay, go ahead.”

Xiao Bing and Yu Miao both looked at Liu Kexin’s back, and Xiao Bing knew that Yu Miao must have something to say. Whether he was giving up or insisted on pursuing Liu Kexin, he had to say something.

Sure enough, after Liu Kexin left, Yu Miao sighed softly and said with a bitter smile, “Mr. Xiao, I guess I’m too late.”

Xiao Bing laughed and said, “Now that we are all friends, and I’m guessing that I’m two or three years older than you, you can also call me Brother Bing, and I will call you Yu Miao.”

“Okay!” Yu Miao said, “I can see from Kexin’s eyes that she likes you. I should quit and stop disturbing you. But my affection for Kexin is also real. She is your girlfriend now, but I still want to compete with you.”

“Is that so?” This was quite unexpected to Xiao Bing. He had just observed Yu Miao and thought the latter was ready to give up. It was a normal thing to give up. But he still had some go in him. This young master cannot be underestimated.

“I will compete fairly with you for one month, and if Kexin still loves you after one month, I will give up!”

Xiao Bing stretched out his hand and laughed. “Deal.”

“Let’s clap hands as an agreement!”

The two men smacked their palms together. That was settled. Yu Miao was a good person, and he seemed sincere about Liu Kexin. Besides, Xiao Bing was just her fake boyfriend, and it would be better to give him a month. If he couldn’t conquer Liu Kexin’s heart in one month, that proved that they were not destined for each other.

But in his heart, Xiao Bing still did not want Yu Miao to have her. Xiao Bing, however, did not recognize that feeling within him. But it also ignited Xiao Bing’s fighting spirit.

After they clapped, Yu Miao relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief. Then he said with a bitter smile, “I’m ashamed to bother Kexin who already has a boyfriend. Especially when I have to compete fairly with you. I know it’s not very good, but I just can’t help myself.”

Xiao Bing laughed brightly and said, “It doesn’t matter. Do you think I care about that? There is no way to control the emotional affairs. If you hadn’t said it, I’d still have understood. What’s more, if Kexin really loves me, thousands of people can’t take her away from me. If she’s not mine, I can’t keep her even if I wanted to. If I’m afraid of your pursuit, that means I have no confidence in my relationship with Kexin.”

Yu Miao looked at Xiao Bing seriously and said, “Brother Bing, it’s a pity that I didn’t know you before. You are different from all the friends I know. You are very extraordinary and are worth getting to know.”

“We are now both friends and rivals in love.”

Yu Miao said, “After a month, no matter what the result is, we are just friends, not rivals.”

Xiao Bing and Yu Miao both looked at each other and laughed, forgetting their unpleasantness. Sometimes even competitors have similar traits which they appreciate in each other.

Liu Kexin came back. When she sat down and looked at Xiao Bing and Yu Miao, she felt a little confused. Coming back from the bathroom, she felt the atmosphere between the two was different from before. They were talking and laughing and now looked like friends who had known each other for many years. The barrier that was there before seemed to have disappeared completely. How could two people suddenly become like this? It made Liu Kexin incredulous and delighted at the same time. Actually, Liu Kexin didn’t want the son of her benefactor and Brother Xiao become enemies because of her.

“Kexin, I went to visit uncle and aunt today. I was relieved to see that they were in good health. I used to hear my father talk about what happened when they went to the countryside together. It was a long time ago, but their feelings were sincere.”

“Yes,” Liu Kexin said, “so I’ve never wanted anything to affect their relationship.”

“Don’t worry. That won’t happen.” Yu Miao smiled and said, “I hate arranged marriages the most. You’ve known each other earlier. I understand it very well.”

Liu Kexin was relieved. Yu Miao had visited her twice before. She was also worried that Yu Miao would be angry when she rejected him several times. On the one hand, it would affect the relationship between the two families. On the other hand, the Yu Family could not be offended at will. Therefore, although Liu Kexin firmly believed that she would not compromise, she still felt anxious and fearful. Unexpectedly, Yu Miao was very reasonable.

In that case, Yu Miao won’t continue to want her to be his girlfriend, right?

Just then, the waiter beside them brought a fish dish and smiled humbly. “Miss, gentlemen, our manager asked me to let you have a taste of this.”

“Oh, what kind of fish is it?”

As the waiter put the fish down, he smiled and said, “It’s very difficult to find such a rare species in the whole country. The manager said that this fish is on the house and he apologizes for the disturbance earlier. The rare varieties are generally protected, so I am sorry but I can’t say tell you.”

Yu Miao’s eyes sparkled and he nodded. “I see. You may go and please thank your manager for me.”

“You’re welcome. Master Yu, Mr. Xiao and Miss Liu, I’ll leave you to enjoy your meal.”

The waiter bowed politely and walked away smiling. They looked at the fish. After a while, Xiao Bing was surprised and said, “This is yellow-lipped fish, commonly known as Money Turtle.”

“Ah… Brother Bing knows it? Tell us about it.”

“Hmm. This kind of fish belongs to the second-class protected animal of the state, and its price is nearly the most expensive one of all fishes. It is said that the whole body of this fish is precious. Its swim bladder has special medicinal properties for postpartum flooding and also effective for treating infertility in men and women. At present, the market price of 100 grams reaches 30,000 or 40,000 yuan, which is higher than gold. Its scales and gills can also be used as medicine.”

Liu Kexin and Yu Miao were surprised.

Xiao Bing went on to say, “I even heard that someone once paid 1.2 million yuan for the belly of the yellow-lipped fish, so you can imagine the value of this fish.”

Yu Miao’s look of astonishment soon faded, and he said with a faint smile, “The Nine Heavens is really like its name. People can get everything. Haha, they even dare to kill the national protected animals.”

“It’s not unusual. In this world, as long as you can afford it, there’s hardly anything you can’t eat. The law of the country is fixed. But many people are willing to take risks for money.” Xiao Bing looked rueful for a bit, then asked Yu Miao, “Do you have some thoughts about the Nine Heavens and want to do something?”

Yu Miao shook his head and said seriously, “Master Hou is not only the leader of the underground world in Jiang City, but also the leader of the underground world in Hei Province. If Master Hou is hurt, the underground world in Hei Province will be chaotic, and the forces of the other provinces will seize the chance to make trouble. And, as you said, when the water is clear, there will be no fish. Hei Province is like a pool of water, which will never become clear. Even if Master Hou isn’t the leader, someone more cruel might take over.”

Xiao Bing said ruefully: “Unlike other children of officials, you have a sense of justice and you are pragmatic. You’re very unusual.”

Yu Miao said with a smile, “Maybe that’s because I’ve experienced a lot and learned a lot from my father. Let’s eat the fish. Just like the waiter said, though we’re eating it, the fish is given by others, we didn’t pay for it. We don’t know what fish it is. We only know it’s delicious.”

Xiao Bing and Yu Miao both looked at each other and smiled. Yu Miao was really smart. The manager here was also very good at handling affairs. From Yu Miao’s speech and behavior, Xiao Bing could see that Yu Miao’s father must be a powerful official. It was nothing serious that Yu Miao ate here. But if he broke the law on purpose, his father would be implicated. But now the fish was given by others and the waiter did not say what kind of fish it was, so it was okay to eat it.

They began to pick the food with their chopsticks. When he saw Liu Kexin eating hesitantly, Xiao Bing asked, “What’s wrong? Is it not to your liking?”

“No.” Liu Kexin licked her lips and said with some embarrassment, “After what you said, I felt that it’s not fish I’m eating, but gold…”

Xiao Bing and Yu Miao guffawed.

At this time, in the manager’s office, the lobby manager had just finished telling Master Hou what had happened on the phone. Master Hou was silent for a moment, then laughed. “Offending Assistant Director Liu will really be problematic. I’ll make a personal phone call to make amends later, and you come with me to visit that playboy in hospital later. Since the eldest young master of the Yu Family is there, there will be no trouble in this matter. Xiao Bing is really giving me more and more surprises. I didn’t expect him to have connections with the Yu Family. Is there anything he cannot do? That’s all for now. You must treat these people well. I will chat with Tingchuan about how this matter will affect us…”

“I understand, Master Hou. I’ve just had the superb yellow-lipped fish sent over, and I haven’t told them what it is.”

“Well done. Good job.”
