Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings-Chapter 198 - 192: Preparing to Use the Beauty Trap

Ye Qing was determined to poach Yang Dingguo's talent.

Although, Lin Yuan is now considered Yang Dingguo's man.

But, on the soccer field, even with a goalkeeper, goals are scored.

As the saying goes, if you wield your hoe well, there's no corner you can't dig.

Thinking about this, Ye Qing asked Zhi Ming, "Zhi Ming, I want you to help me with something."

"Be my persuader and keep Lin Yuan in Emperor Dragon City."

Zhi Ming: "????"

Upon hearing Ye Qing's words, Zhi Ming was completely perplexed.

Zhi Ming thought, Boss, you're paying me two thousand bucks for a job worth twenty thousand!

This request is akin to the nine-headed insect ordering Bo Po Ba to take down Tang Monk and his disciples!

"Ahem!" Zhi Ming coughed twice, helplessly and speechlessly saying, "Boss, Lin Yuan and I are mere acquaintances, and we don't have much rapport!"

"Besides, I'm a lousy speaker, asking me to do this task is truly beyond my capability!"

Ye Qing was just grasping at straws in desperation!

Just look at Zhi Ming; he doesn't seem like the persuader type!

Sending Zhi Ming as the persuader is like sending Zhang Fei to verbally spar with the sages, or Li Kui to pacify Fang La.

Ye Qing seemed to realize this request was a bit abrupt.

After contemplating, he changed his approach, asking, "Zhi Ming, in your opinion, if I personally recruit Lin Yuan and let him name his terms."

"Is there any certainty to keep him in Emperor Dragon City?"

Seeing Ye Qing truly valued Lin Yuan and sincerely wanted to recruit him.

Moreover, Zhi Ming also felt that Lin Yuan would have better prospects staying in Emperor Dragon City.

Thus, Zhi Ming hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but was hesitant.

Ye Qing was an old hand at this; he could tell Zhi Ming was holding something back.

Ye Qing thought, you're holding something back!

So, Ye Qing quickly pursued, "Zhi Ming, is there something you're not saying?"

"Whatever it is, just say it; don't hold back."

"Keeping Lin Yuan, it's not out of personal interest, it's for Emperor Dragon City and Dragon Country!"

With Ye Qing saying this much, Zhi Ming couldn't keep it to himself any longer.

"I definitely can't be the persuader."

"But maybe Jian Bing can."

"I feel like Lin Yuan seems to have a fondness for Jian Bing."

"If the boss truly wants to keep him in Emperor Dragon City, let Jian Bing give it a try." Zhi Ming shared his thought.

"Brilliant!" Hearing this, Ye Qing slapped his thigh in admiration.

Since ancient times, heroes have found it hard to resist beauties.

For Lin Yuan, a powerful figure, encountering a formidable beauty like Jian Bing.

At such times, it would be completely normal to be moved. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

If Lin Yuan and Jian Bing get together, keeping Lin Yuan would be quite certain.

The beauty scheme!

Deploying such a beauty trap, Lin Yuan definitely wouldn't withstand it.

Thinking of this, Ye Qing was somewhat impatient, standing up to find Jian Bing to discuss the matter.

"Boss, where are you going?" Zhi Ming grabbed Ye Qing and asked.

Ye Qing didn't even think about it; he answered matter-of-factly, "I'm going to find Jian Bing to have a talk; I'll personally play matchmaker for them!"

Indeed, Ye Qing's intentions were just as Zhi Ming anticipated.

"Boss, you can't go for this!"

"I'm afraid Jian Bing might not give you face!" Zhi Ming said helplessly.

Might not give face?

Zhi Ming's statement was quite reserved.

It was not just about might not giving face!

If you ask Jian Bing to use the beauty scheme, a few wrong words and she might even physically assault Ye Qing.

Ye Qing's position might be high, but he's not in the same department as Jian Bing and Zhi Ming.

Ye Qing couldn't control the people from the research section.

Someone as honest and straightforward as Zhi Ming could still help Ye Qing a bit, within his reach.

Jian Bing was quite rebellious, asking her to use the beauty scheme for Lin Yuan might lead to an immediate fallout if her mood isn't good.

"Boss, if you want this to be done smoothly. You can't directly find Jian Bing; you need to consult the Dean first."

"If the Dean agrees, I believe Jian Bing can't refuse!" Zhi Ming reminded.

To them, the Dean was both a teacher and a father.

Although Jian Bing was quite proud and rebellious, she greatly respected the Dean.

"That's right!"

"You're making a lot of sense!"

"I'll find the Dean first, find the Dean first!" Saying this, Ye Qing pulled Zhi Ming along towards the researcher section.

....

....

Research Institute, dormitory area.

Ling Guang's single apartment.

After her halftime break, Jian Bing picked up her slipper and aimed at the other side of Ling Guang's rear, starting the second round of torment.

"Don't hit me anymore!"

"I won't dare do it next time!" Ling Guang pleaded pitifully.

However, Jian Bing was already immune to Ling Guang's pitiful look.

No matter how pitiful she acted, the beatings continued.

Whenever Ling Guang got hung up and beaten, there was always a reason.

Even though she got beaten this time, she'd surely err again next time.

The main issue was her failure to learn.

"Next time!"

"You still think there'll be a next time?" Jian Bing swung the slipper at Ling Guang's other side, aiming to balance her blows across both cheeks.

As she was hitting, knocking sounds came from outside.

"Knock."

"Knock, knock."

With the knocks sounding, Jian Bing put down the slipper, went to the door, and opened it.

Outside, it was Zhi Ming.

"I went looking for you, but you weren't in your room. They told me you're at Ling Guang's place?" Zhi Ming said, taking a glance at the hanging Ling Guang, pretending not to see.

"What's the matter?" Jian Bing asked coldly, obviously not in a good mood.

"Um..."

"The dean's looking for you, said you should go immediately!"

"Looks like it's urgent!" Zhi Ming said tentatively.

Hearing that the dean was looking for him, Jian Bing tossed aside his slippers and rushed to the dean's office.

After Jian Bing left, Zhi Ming was about to leave too, but not before closing the door behind him.

"Brother Zhi Ming, come quickly and save me!"

"Put me down, hurry and put me down!" Ling Guang called out.

With Ling Guang shouting, Zhi Ming couldn't pretend he didn't see anymore.

"Cough, cough!"

"What did you do wrong again, how come you're being strung up by Jian Bing again?" Zhi Ming emphasized the word "again."

"Hmph!" Ling Guang sniffed and said, "Who knows what kind of mood Jian Bing's in again?"

"I bet she's likely hitting menopause or something."

Zhi Ming thought, you're only brave enough to say that in front of me. If Jian Bing hears it, you'll definitely get smacked twice with a slipper.

However, Ling Guang wanting him to let her down was impossible.

He didn't want to meddle in the affairs between her and Jian Bing.

Besides, this girl Ling Guang was getting beaten because she brought it upon herself!

"It's not that I won't let you down!"

"If I let you down now, when Jian Bing comes back, she'll just string you up again, right?"

"Then, she'll start all over, and won't you suffer even more?"

"I tell you, just bear with it, wait till Jian Bing comes back, and when she's completely calmed down, she'll let you down!" After saying this, Zhi Ming turned around to leave.

"You, you're just too scared to do it and making excuses."

"Fine, if you won't let me down, at least hand me my phone, that should be fine!" Ling Guang said irritably.

Give her the phone?

That's no big deal.

Thinking of this, Zhi Ming handed the phone from the bed to Ling Guang, joking, "Even strung up, you can't forget about your phone, huh?"

"Alright, take your time with it. I'm off now!"

After finishing this sentence, Zhi Ming left.

Ling Guang wanted the phone, not to play games or anything.

What she wanted was to contact Lin Yuan to save her.

"Ding."

Lin Yuan had sent several messages to Ling Guang, but there was no reply.

He was about to give up hope and started watching dramas.

Unexpectedly, Ling Guang replied.

"Brother Lin Yuan, come quickly and save me!"

The phone chimed with a notification, and when he opened the message, it was from Ling Guang.

"Save you?"

"What's wrong with you?"

Lin Yuan was momentarily stunned and replied.

Ling Guang replied instantly.

"I sent you a photo, and Sister Jian Bing found out. She strung me up, and my butt's been turned into a blossom."

Lin Yuan: "???????"

Lin Yuan looked completely puzzled for a moment before replying: "Your butt turned into a blossom, wanna show it?"

"Ding."

The phone chimed again, and an image arrived.

However, it wasn't a picture of her butt, but Ling Guang's face.

Yes, it was a selfie taken while being hung upside down.

"Hahaha."

"Oh goodness!"

"She really strung you up and beat you, huh?" Lin Yuan couldn't help but laugh out loud like a pig.

But to save her?

Lin Yuan definitely couldn't go.

The culprits in this matter were Ling Guang and himself.

If he went to save Ling Guang now, it would be like walking into a trap.

If Jian Bing saw him, she'd probably want to kill him.

"Hmm!"

"I believe Jian Bing isn't unreasonable."

"Before long, she'll let you down!"

"Well, I didn't sleep well last night, a bit tired now, gonna nap, don't message me unless it's urgent!" Lin Yuan replied with several messages consecutively.

Seeing these messages, Ling Guang was furious.

"Ding."

"Ding."

"Ding."

The phone notifications kept chiming, and Lin Yuan picked up his phone to see, all were sixty-second long voice notes from Ling Guang.

But Lin Yuan didn't listen to them.

He didn't need to hear to know they were full of cursing.

Sixty seconds is the limit for the voice note, not for Ling Guang.

"Lin Yuan, do you have any conscience left?"

"We agreed, if Sister Jian Bing ever beat me, you'd help me!" Ling Guang finally started sending text messages again.

"Ha!"

"You're giving me too much credit! Conscience, where on earth would I have such a thing?" Lin Yuan shamelessly replied.

The deal between him and Ling Guang, he never intended to keep it.

After all, how could he help an outsider against his own woman?

Though Jian Bing wasn't his woman yet, wasn't it just a matter of time?

Ling Guang: "I've never met someone so shameless."

Lin Yuan: "Well, now you have!"

Ling Guang sent another sixty-second long voice note, but Lin Yuan still didn't listen.

After calming her anger down, Ling Guang pulled out her ace.

Ling Guang: "Want uncensored high-res photos?"

Lin Yuan: "Send me the location, I'm on my way!"
