Chapter 147 I'll beat you into submission! I'll have your dad come see me tomorrow! You're not worthy to speak to me!

However, Xia Mian was, after all, a disciple who had trained under Master Yang Bilian.

Whether it's physical fitness or solid basic skills, they are far superior to these two weaklings.

Li Qing tried to pull Xia Mian, but he couldn't budge her at all!

She pulled several times, like pulling a small mountain, but Xia Mian remained sitting on Fang Yuan's waist, slapping him repeatedly.

Fang Yuan's face swelled up rapidly and visibly, covered with bright red handprints.

She screamed in agony, tears streaming down her face without any regard for her image.

"Xia Mian! I'll kill you! How dare you hit me!"

She cursed in pain, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth. She pushed Xia Mian away in a disheveled state, got up from the ground, and was about to raise her hand to hit Xia Mian.

But Xia Mian reacted quickly, grabbed her wrist, and flung her hard onto Xu Meimei's empty bed across the room!

Xia Mian's eyes were icy cold. "Don't think I don't know what tricks you two are playing. It's nothing more than framing me for poisoning. At best, I'll be expelled from school; at worst, I'll go to jail."

Are you two really as innocent as you claim?

"I, Xia Mian, have done nothing wrong and stood upright! Let me tell you, don't think that everyone in the world is as stupid as you two, creating a case full of loopholes!"

She gave a cold look to Li Qing, who rushed to Fang Yuan's side and hugged him.

"You both know who the murderer is! The police have eyes and brains! You two better pray for your own good fortune!"

Fang Yuan was shocked by Xia Mian's brutality! She hit much harder than Zhao Baoqi!

Her head was buzzing, and she felt like Xia Mian was giving her tinnitus!

Her eyes suddenly turned to Xia Mian, her gaze filled with resentment and hatred.

His voice was hoarse, "Xia Mian! Who do you think you are! Do you know who I am? My dad is a board member of Xu Luo Jewelry! My family is loaded! My dad will definitely teach you a lesson!"

"My dad will avenge me! How dare you hit me like that! I'll make you regret this!"

Xia Mian suddenly slapped her across the face again. "Really? Xu Luo Jewelry? That's great, thank you for telling me this."

Xia Mian picked up her phone and, disregarding the fact that it was midnight, called Xu Luo, the president of Xu Luo Jewelry. "President Xu, are you asleep?"

As the president of Xu Luo Jewelry, Xu Luo is always either socializing or working overtime. She had just finished reading the financial report for this quarter and stretched when her phone rang.

Upon discovering that it was Xia Mian, the genius designer who had already started school, she immediately answered the call.

Xia Mian turned on her phone's speakerphone and heard Xu Luo's friendly voice, "Mianmian, what's wrong? Why aren't you resting so late?"

"Here's the thing, I have a roommate named Fang Yuan. She said her dad is one of the board members of the company. Does he have a lot of shares?"

"Director Fang? Not much, only about seven percent. What's wrong?" Xu Luo found it strange.

Upon hearing Xu Luo's warm voice, Fang Yuan's heart began to sink.

How could this be? Isn't Xu Luo supposed to be very aloof? Why is she being so kind to Xia Mian, almost to the point of being gentle and tender?

Li Qing gripped Fang Yuan's hand tightly, "Yuanyuan...something's wrong, something's really wrong..."

She was extremely flustered. Wasn't Xia Mian just an internet celebrity who was staying at the Fu family's place?

Originally, she and Fang Yuan thought they could easily control Xia Mian, make her kneel down and beg for mercy, and make her cry her heart out.

How come it seems like she and Fang Yuan are the ones being abused all by themselves now? Being utterly crushed?

Things are taking a bizarre turn... and in a direction that is completely unpredictable for the two of them...

“Great. My design commission hasn’t been settled since I joined the company, and it should be quite a lot.”

Xia Mian took a deep breath and said slowly, "I wonder if we can reach the point of purchasing seven percent of the company's shares?"

When she first joined the company, she didn't have to work regular hours, so she signed a buyout contract, which bought out her design work.

After her first collection became a huge hit, she signed a new contract, a revenue-sharing contract, where she would receive a commission for every piece of jewelry she designed that was sold.

Xu Luo Jewelry's performance this year is almost entirely due to her designs. Not only have all of her designs become wildly popular, but they are also in short supply.

It is said that it has also been exported abroad and promoted globally.

Not only that, Xu Luo also took two of her designs abroad to participate in a jewelry design competition, won an award, but the prize money has not yet been received.

She's now betting all her earnings on being on equal footing with Fang Yuan's father.

Xu Luo became anxious upon hearing this, her voice filled with concern and worry.

"Mianmian, don't be impulsive. What happened? Why did you suddenly think of buying shares? Just tell me, and I'll give you five percent of the shares right away. Do you really need to buy them?"

Fang Yuan and Li Qing stared wide-eyed in shock.

Fang Yuan attended the banquet with his father at Xu Luo Jewelry's annual meeting and saw Xu Luo there.

Xu Luo is a well-known female CEO, and she and Fu Baiyu of the Fu family are known as the beauties of Mingcheng!

She's usually aloof and assertive; when have you ever seen her talk to someone like a caring older sister?

What exactly is the relationship between Xia Mian and Xu Luo?

Relatives? Probably not...

Xu Luo even offered to give her shares for free!

Xu Luo Jewelry has released several best-selling collections this year, and five percent of the shares is a lot of money, okay? Is she just going to give it all away to Xia Mian like this?

Fang Yuan stared at Xia Mian in shock, not daring to utter a sound.

She could only cower in Li Qing's arms, trembling.

It seems she... has offended someone she shouldn't have!

"Thank you, Mr. Xu, but I still want to buy it." Xia Mian's voice was indifferent, unusually cold in the dark night, as faint as the moonlight on the horizon. "I don't want more, just seven percent!"

"Fine, fine, I'm scared of you." Xu Luo had no choice but to agree.

"I'll send the share purchase agreement to the school tomorrow; you just need to sign it. I'll also have the finance department settle all your shares. Mianmian, remember, if anything happens, just tell your sister. We don't cause trouble, but we're definitely not afraid of trouble."

Are you kidding me? Xia Mian is a genius designer, while the other designers at Xu Luo Jewelry are just scraps now.

"Okay, thank you." Xia Mian hung up the phone, then looked at Fang Yuan and raised an eyebrow.

"Tomorrow, have your father come see me. I am now a board member of Xu Luo Jewelry. You are not worthy to speak to me. Let him come."

Fang Yuan retorted defiantly, "Why should my dad come? Who do you think you are?"

"I'm your dad's colleague! I'm his peer!" Xia Mian sneered. "You're just a piece of trash who can only be called a parent, you're not worthy to talk to me!"

After she finished speaking, she glanced at Li Qing again, "And you, you lackey of Fangyuan, you better behave yourselves! Otherwise, my slaps have eyes, and whoever messes with me, I'll hit them!"
