Chapter 555 The Story of Struggle
"Hey Zhang, get Miss Lili a cup of coffee, make it our best."
He Yucheng's eyes never left Qin Lili as he spoke, and he only raised his chin slightly.
The shop assistant, Xiao Zhang, stood behind the counter, rolled her eyes helplessly, and turned around to prepare the coffee without saying a word.
Qin Lili sat back down on the sofa and continued scrolling through her phone.
"No need, I just came with a friend, I'll be leaving in a bit."
"friend?"
He Yucheng finally managed to pull his eyes off Qin Lili and scanned the shop around:
"Which one of you is Lili's friend?"
Then he saw a young girl staring at him with unfriendly eyes, but He Yucheng didn't care at all. He obviously didn't consider Xia Qing someone who needed to be treated. He simply raised his hand and said to the shop assistant next to Ye Shu:
"Xiao Li, take good care of Li Li's friends; they are honored guests."
After saying that, his eyes returned to Qin Lili, and he plopped down on the sofa next to her, with only a coffee table between them.
Ye Shu, watching from the side, was at a loss for words. How could this person with such low emotional intelligence keep the store running?
He treats the shop assistants like servants, shows no respect for customers, and his treacherous ambitions are written all over his face.
It was obvious that the female shop assistants in his store also disliked him. Just now, when he was speaking, Ye Shu saw the mouth of the female shop assistant next to him, named Xiao Li, move.
Although Ye Shu didn't understand lip reading, he still understood the shape of the mouth.
"Idiot."
And it wasn't just Xiao Li; the other female shop assistants all gave him that "here he comes again" look ever since he came down from upstairs.
Ye Shu suddenly felt a little sorry for the shop assistants.
He Yucheng sat next to Qin Lili, leaning his body towards her and resting his elbows on the small table in the middle. He looked like an old friend and kept talking about their first meeting years ago.
Qin Lili sat on the sofa, looking down at her phone, completely ignoring He Yucheng as if he didn't exist, waiting for Xia Qing to finish choosing her wedding dress before leaving immediately.
"Sister Xia Qing, let's hurry up and choose, so that Sister Li Li won't have to suffer too much."
Xia Qing was so angry that her hands were trembling, and she gritted her teeth and didn't say a word.
What's the use of you getting angry here? Ye Shuxin thought to herself, He Yucheng isn't going to be driven away by your glare. Even if you glare your eyes out, he'll still sit where he is.
He gently tugged at Xia Qing's hand, and Xia Qing then lowered her head to continue looking at the wedding dress.
He Yucheng kept talking, not caring whether Qin Lili paid him any attention or not.
"Lili, look at me now... well, the shop I opened is doing pretty well every year."
As he spoke, he crossed two fingers and placed them on his crossed legs, a typical pose of someone about to show off.
"I have to thank you for this."
Qin Lili swiped her phone and ignored him. He Yucheng didn't care either and started rambling on.
That night on the mountaintop, after Qin Lili left, he followed her toward the cable car.
Once on the cable car, he discovered that there was another girl in the same car. The girl seemed a little drunk and was going down the mountain by herself.
The girl seemed to have just broken up with her boyfriend, and with the alcohol taking effect, she was in a daze and mistook He Yucheng for her boyfriend.
He Yucheng wasn't really stupid. He thought to himself that Qin Lili was indeed a bit difficult to win over, and it was not as easy as this proactive girl in front of him.
He accompanied her all the way, took her to a hotel at the foot of the mountain to rest, and took good care of her all night. He really did nothing but act like a virtuous gentleman.
Then, after the girl sobered up, she learned what had happened. A strange man had taken her to a hotel, and without doing anything, she actually thought he was a gentleman and even fell for him.
Before long, the two got married.
The girl's family is quite wealthy, and with He Yucheng involved, although she's like a pencil used for filling in answer sheets in some ways, she's exceptionally talented at being a lackey.
This flattered his father-in-law to his heart's content. At the company and in matters of interpersonal relationships, He Yucheng ran around doing everything for him, making his father-in-law really think he had found a good son-in-law.
But the girl's personality was very strong, like the stereotypical rich girl who had been spoiled since childhood. She treated He Yucheng like a servant, ordering him around.
At first, He Yucheng could tolerate it. After all, he was rich, and who would turn down money? He Yucheng could also sense that this might be a good opportunity for him to achieve upward social mobility.
But he was a rather low-class person by nature, and as his social status changed, his mentality also changed.
He automatically ignored who brought him to his current status. If it weren't for his father-in-law and his wife, what would he be?
He felt that now that he was in this position, how could you treat him like this, ordering him around and not giving him any face in public?
I'm a man too, and I have my pride too.
So, at a party, He Yucheng, in front of everyone and fueled by alcohol, slapped his wife.
With that girl's personality, would she be able to tolerate him?
That evening, He Yucheng was thrown out of his home.
By the time he realized what was happening, it was too late. He begged and pleaded, but nothing worked.
Since the girl's family has this kind of confidence, he can't sway her.
A few months later, he got a divorce certificate and a sum of money. With that money, he opened the shop and is doing quite well now.
The above is He Yucheng's story of struggle.
Ye Shu was completely dumbfounded. He had thought that this guy was just a narcissistic and greasy man, at most a thick-skinned one, and at worst an annoying one.
After listening to this story of how he made his fortune, wow, he's a real talent.
God has practically fed him a free lunch, but he just won't eat it.
He became rich by being mistaken for someone's boyfriend, accumulating his initial capital by beating his wife, divorcing her, and dividing her property.
What do you call this? This is called living off a woman's money without understanding why.
What's most impressive is that when He Yucheng said all this, his attitude and expression seemed quite proud.
Does he really think he's something special?
However, from a certain perspective, it is indeed quite impressive.
Ye Shu really learned something new today. In all his years of life, he has seen shameless people, self-righteous people, and people who can't see things clearly.
But someone like He Yucheng, who squandered a winning hand and still thought he was doing pretty well, was someone he had never seen before.
How could I possibly meet such an amazing person?
