Chapter 1025: Don’t Be a Resentful Person

"Half? Why?" Ye Tianming became even more furious. That house was the life savings of Chen Bing's parents. How could he let that woman take it away like that?

"I...what can I do?" Chen Bing slumped in the chair with a hollow look in his eyes, as if he had lost all hope. "My parents are ordinary workers. They lived frugally all their lives to save up the money for me to buy a house and marry a wife. Now, all the money has gone to that woman..."

Ye Tianming looked at the man in front of him who was once full of vigor and vitality, but now looked like a defeated rooster, and felt mixed emotions.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of this matter!" Ye Tianming patted Chen Bing's shoulder with a firm look in his eyes, "I want to see which woman dares to be so arrogant!"

Chen Bing smiled bitterly but said nothing. He didn't believe Ye Tianming could help him solve this problem. After all, the other party had hired a lawyer and had also found someone to take advantage of him.

"Tianming, don't worry about it. I'll take the blame for this..."

"Give up? Why?" Ye Tianming interrupted him, "Don't worry, I won't let her succeed!"

"But……"

"No buts!" Ye Tianming interrupted Chen Bing, his eyes firm, "We are brothers, your business is my business, I will never sit idly by and do nothing!"

Chen Bing smiled bitterly and shook his head, his eyes full of fatigue and despair. He picked up the bottle of wine and took a big gulp, as if he wanted to swallow all the bitterness.

"Tianming, thank you, really. We are brothers, and you still remember me..." He wiped the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand and smiled self-deprecatingly, "But, this matter is really beyond your control..."

"Why can't you do anything about it? Tell me, who is it?" Ye Tianming frowned. He knew Chen Bing's character. If he wasn't really desperate, he would never show such an expression.

"Ah..." Chen Bing sighed, as if he wanted to let go of all his strength. "Her name is Li Tingting. She's a local internet celebrity. She has hundreds of thousands of fans on Tik Tok. I heard she even signed a contract with some guild. She's very famous..."

"Internet celebrity?" Ye Tianming was stunned. He didn't expect Chen Bing's ex-girlfriend to be an Internet celebrity. "That's it? What's wrong with Internet celebrities? Can Internet celebrities bully people at will?"

"Hey, you really don't disbelieve it..." Chen Bing laughed bitterly, "These days, Internet celebrities are much more powerful than ordinary people like us. Their fans are their weapons. They can just post a video and scold you to pieces. Not to mention, she has a company behind her and I heard she knows a lot of people in the underworld..."

As Chen Bing spoke, his voice became lower and lower, and his eyes became dimmer and dimmer. It was obvious that he had suffered a lot from this matter.

"I didn't know she was an internet celebrity at first. When we were dating, she said she was a live-streamer selling goods, and I didn't think much about it. Who would have known..." He laughed self-deprecatingly, "Now that I think about it, I was really blind and deceived by her..."

"I called the police and also consulted a lawyer, but..." Chen Bing shook his head helplessly, "She wasn't afraid at all. When the police came, she started crying and saying that I was harassing her. The lawyer also said that I didn't have enough evidence and that I might not win the lawsuit even if I sued her..."

"Are you just going to swallow this anger?" Ye Tianming was very angry. He really couldn't stand Chen Bing being bullied by an internet celebrity like this.

"What else?" Chen Bing smiled bitterly. "I have complained to her for a long time. I have complained to every department I can think of, but it is of no use. She is doing her live broadcasts and promoting products. She doesn't even take me seriously..."

"I finally understand that these days, the rich and powerful are the boss. Ordinary people like us, even if we are bullied, can only grit our teeth and swallow our anger..." Chen Bing's eyes were full of despair, as if he had completely given up resistance.

Ye Tianming looked at the man in front of him who was once full of vigor and vitality, but now was like a tiger with its claws pulled out. His heart was filled with anger and powerlessness.

He knew that what Chen Bing said was true. In this society, fairness and justice were often not enjoyed by everyone. The law of the jungle was the eternal law.

"Is there really no way out?" Ye Tianming clenched his fists, his heart filled with unwillingness. He absolutely could not watch Chen Bing being bullied like this, he must find a way to help him get justice!

Ye Tianming was about to speak when he was interrupted by the crisp sound of high heels hitting the ground.

He turned his head and saw a tall woman wearing high heels and twisting her slender waist, walking towards him aggressively.

She was wearing a black tight dress that outlined her exquisite curves. Her long wavy hair was casually draped over her shoulders. Under her exquisite makeup, her charming phoenix eyes revealed a hint of sharpness. Her red lips were slightly parted, as if she would spit out sharp words at any time.

"Hey, isn't this Chen Bing? Why are you drinking here to drown your sorrows?"

The woman walked to the table, her tone full of undisguised sarcasm. She glanced at Chen Bing with contempt, and finally fell on Ye Tianming. She looked him up and down, and a playful smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

When Chen Bing saw the person coming, his expression suddenly became even uglier. He stood up suddenly, with a hint of panic and pleading in his tone: "Tingting, why are you here?"

This woman is Chen Bing’s ex-girlfriend, Li Tingting, the internet celebrity with hundreds of thousands of fans on Douyin.

Li Tingting ignored Chen Bing's panic and walked straight to sit opposite him, crossed her legs, and gracefully took out a lady's cigarette from her bag, lit it gently, took a deep breath, exhaled a cloud of smoke, and then said slowly: "Why, I can't come?"

"No, that's not what I meant..." Chen Bing frowned, as if he was afraid that the woman would be angry.

"Then what do you mean?" Li Tingting raised her eyebrows with a hint of threat in her tone.

Chen Bing opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. He looked at Ye Tianming for help, hoping he could say something for him.

Seeing Li Tingting's aggressive look, Ye Tianming became even more angry. He stood up suddenly, pulled Chen Bing behind him, and said in a deep voice: "Miss Li, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't be sarcastic."

Li Tingting didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary man would dare to speak to her in such a tone. A hint of anger flashed in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

She chuckled and said, "Hey, who is this? What's up, Chen Bing? Are you looking for help to deal with me?"

Ye Tianming was about to speak, but was stopped by Chen Bing. He whispered, "Tianming, stop talking. This has nothing to do with you."

"Why has it nothing to do with me?" Ye Tianming frowned, "You are my brother, your business is my business!"

"Oh, you are so arrogant!" Li Tingting sneered, "I want to see what you, an ordinary person, can do to me."
