《The Supreme Soldier King of the Lady CEO》 Chapter 1: Crush You! Chapter 1 - 1: Crush You!As night fell, the neon lights of Celestial Sea City flickered. A man chewing a toothpick, carrying a shoulder bag, walked out of the airport and onto the square outside. "Hey handsome, wanna come in and have a seat?" A woman leaned into the man''s chest, her eyes flirtatious, pointing to a salon fifty meters away. "No, but do you offer services in the car?" "In the car?" The woman was momentarily stunned, then replied with a blink, "I''m versatile, but it costs more for in-car services." "That''s fine, let''s go, my car''s already here to pick me up." The woman looked in the direction of the man''s gaze and her eyes lit up: "Wow, handsome, is that fifty-thousand-dollar Mercedes-Benz here to pick you up?" "Sis, you''ve got it all wrong." Ye Huan grinned, pointing to the side: "I meant that one. So, how about it?" The woman looked in the direction Ye Huan pointed and saw an airport shuttle bus. Immediately, she realized she had been tricked. Just as she was about to lash out with anger, she noticed that Ye Huan''s figure had instantly vanished. She rubbed her eyes, thinking she was hallucinating. How could a living person disappear in just a second? Ye Huan tossed two coins and sat down in the last row of the shuttle bus, his face instantly filled with gloom! That damn master tricked me into retiring from the Dark World and returning to Huaxia. I originally thought he had opened his heart and wanted to teach me some secret skills. But who knew, upon returning to Huaxia, the damn master revealed that the mission was to fulfill a betrothal arranged twenty years ago between him and another old man! I tried to resist, but not only did I get beaten half to death, my entire seven years'' worth of possessions were seized by the damn master, leaving me with just a plane ticket and a few coins! And wouldn''t you know it, meeting up had already been set for tonight! He didn''t even give me cab fare, so I had to take the airport bus! Most importantly, given the master''s nature, the "quality" of that "fiance" is probably questionable! After fighting for seven years in the Western world, I''m already at the top of the Western world''s pyramid! Forget world-class divas, I could marry any country''s princess, yet I have no idea if the woman the damn master set up is pretty or not. If she''s not pretty, that''s a huge loss! "Ah, what a misstep!" Ye Huan sighed deeply. The next second, he held his chin, starting to ponder. If, by some miracle, the master had a change of heart, and the woman turned out not only beautiful but also incredibly seductive, a stunning beauty of the first order? Holy crap, wouldn''t that mean I got a gorgeous beauty for nothing, and scored big time! For a moment, Ye Huan''s mood turned a lot better, he even crossed his legs and stretched his hands as if lounging on a sofa. "Hmm? What''s this?" Ye Huan muttered in bewilderment, feeling he touched something smooth. As he squeezed it and turned his head! "Ah, pervert!!" "Oh crap, don''t!" Ye Huan exclaimed, dodging to avoid a slap. Tang Yao, full of embarrassment and anger, after delivering that slap, moved her body a bit away, while also pulling up the sleeve on her shoulder! Apparently, what Brother Huan had just pinched was indeed her delicate shoulder! sea??h th ovelFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Ye Huan''s face darkened. He looked closely and suddenly became uneasy. The woman had exquisite features, fair and smooth skin, dressed in an office lady uniform that perfectly accentuated her fiery figure, with flesh-colored stockings on her legs adding a touch of allure. If the score was out of 10, this woman getting a 9.5 wouldn''t be excessive! "What are you staring at? Drop dead!" Tang Yao gritted her teeth, moving even further away. She was extremely annoyed because she returned from her annual holiday in the Maldives to "help" the CEO meet her never-seen-before fianc, and ended up saving a few bucks on cab fare, only to encounter such a blatant lecher on the bus! Other people, at least, sneak peeks at beauties discreetly, but this guy is open about it, even laying hands! Simply absurd! Ye Huan tapped the toothpick in his mouth, looking serious: "Hey beauty, I''m not a pervert, I''m a miracle doctor. Also, I can tell you have a condition!" Tang Yao was taken aback, her eyebrows raised sharply: "You''re the one with a condition! Can you speak properly!" "Hey beauty, why are you insulting people!" Ye Huan considered for a moment, then earnestly said: "If I''m not mistaken, you must struggle with insomnia! Even if you fall asleep peacefully, the quality of your sleep is surely abysmal, plus, didn''t you have your period three times last month?" "What nonsense are you spouting!" Tang Yao was about to lash out, but soon she was stunned. Because the symptoms Ye Huan mentioned were spot-on with her current condition! She was immensely puzzled, having never shared her symptoms with anyone else. How could this guy she just met know about them? Ye Huan''s mouth curled into a slight smile: "See, I guessed right! I used to think only old sows could have their period three times a month, but I see you''re an expert too! But don''t worry, it''s not a big issue. We can exchange WeChat first, get to know each other, and I''ll treat you later!" "Drop dead!" Tang Yao gritted her teeth, wishing she could tear this man to shreds. Ye Huan was about to continue when he heard a crisp sound, his brow furrowing slightly. With years of battle experience in the Western Dark World, Ye Huan had an extreme familiarity with all firearms! The crisp sound was that of a handgun''s safety being disengaged! "Nobody move, everyone get down!" The man, with a headscarf on, suddenly left his seat just as the bus started and pressed the gun barrel against the driver''s forehead: "Keep driving, head to East Suburb! Or I''ll blow your head off!" "Huh? Yes, yes!" The driver was full of panic, his hands trembling as they gripped the steering wheel. The passengers on the bus came to their senses, all screaming out loud, holding their heads in panic as they squatted down. "Calling 911, are we? Try it again!" Another man among the passengers stood up, slapped the old lady and snatched her phone, crushing it to bits! In an instant, all the passengers threw their phones to the ground, not daring to call for help, shivering in fear! Because they didn''t know how many accomplices of the robbers were in the crowd! And everyone had already recognized these robbers, weren''t they the ones who had been frequently hijacking buses in Celestial Sea City recently! Tang Yao''s face was as pale as paper, holding her head as she squatted down, eyes full of fear, obviously scared stiff by the robbers'' formation. "Listen up, all of you, hand over anything valuable! We''re only after the money, not your lives!" The robber shouted through a loudspeaker, "But if you don''t cooperate, we won''t mind taking your lives too!" The passengers trembled as they put all their belongings on the ground. The two robbers had a clear division of labor, with the armed robber responsible for searching the passengers, while the other held a sack, collecting all the valuables on the ground. The leader, Shan Ji, was searching a middle-aged bald man and suddenly said, "Open your mouth!" At these words, the cunning look in the bald man''s eyes instantly turned to panic. Shan Ji sneered and pried open his mouth! Suddenly, golden light overflowed from the bald man''s mouth! His teeth, were all gold teeth! "You think you''re clever, trying to trick me?" Shan Ji cursed, using the butt of the gun to smash into his mouth! In less than a minute, all twenty-some gold teeth in his mouth were smashed down by the gun butt. Blood flowed freely from the bald man''s mouth, and his screams were so loud that they caused the bus windows to tremble. Eventually, he passed out on the ground from the severe pain. His miserable condition frightened the others into trembling. They dared not have any other thoughts and handed over all their belongings in an instant! Soon, the two robbers reached the back seats of the bus. Shan Ji glanced out the window and noticed this man didn''t squat down and seemed unconcerned, but he didn''t care or pay attention to the man. He''s seen too many people who appeared tough on the outside but crumbled with the slightest pressure; if he didn''t squat now, he could just make him suffer later. "I... I''ve given you everything, you... you don''t need to search me..." Tang Yao pleaded softly, having witnessed firsthand how the armed robber searched the young women. She had been "searched" all over, several times! If it came to that, she would rather die! Shan Ji was about to curse, but when he saw Tang Yao''s downcast appearance, he was suddenly interested. This woman had a well-proportioned figure, a soft voice, and smooth skin. Could she possibly be a beauty? What luck today? At this thought, Shan Ji grinned lasciviously. "You think if you say no search, I won''t search? Who''s the robber here, me or you?" Shan Ji sneered, aiming the gun at Tang Yao''s chin, forcing her head up. Tang Yao''s whole body trembled, drenched in a cold sweat, unable to stay calm with a dark, cold gun barrel pressed against her chin! "Beautiful lady!" Upon seeing Tang Yao''s exquisite face, Shan Ji was overjoyed, laughing heartily as he reached out his lecherous hand. "What do you want!" Tang Yao shouted in terror, quickly getting up to step back several paces. "Want what?" Shan Ji licked his lips, smiling wickedly, "You know!" After that, he chuckled evilly again! "Ah!" Tang Yao screamed in panic, avoiding Shan Ji''s lecherous hand! For a moment, the passengers silently mourned for Tang Yao, falling into the hands of these armed criminals, the outcome would surely be tragic! "Brother, I spotted this woman first, shouldn''t there be some order?" Ye Huan said discontentedly, pulling Tang Yao towards the inside seat and wrapping an arm around her shoulder. Shan Ji paused, then sneered, "You think you can talk about order with me?" With that, he waved his hand. Five men stood up from among the passengers, all pulling out guns. In an instant, cold gun barrels were all aimed at Ye Huan''s head... Chapter 2 First Come, First Served? Chapter 2 - 2 First Come, First Served?In an instant, the entire bus was on the verge of eruption. The corners of the gangsters'' mouths curled into mocking smiles. "Now, do you still want to talk about first come, first served?" the thug named Mountain Chicken sneered repeatedly. "Buddy, as the saying goes, reason goes around the world, without reason, you can''t move an inch." Ye Huan snorted coldly and said, "We may not care about the barbaric Western lands, but here in Huaxia, we must reason everything out, right? I saw this beauty first, so, of course, I get to appreciate her first. In the old days, cutting in line like this would have you drowned in a pig cage." As soon as these words came out, the bus fell silent. Even the originally panicked passengers were dumbfounded. "Is this...kid not thinking straight? He''s reasoning with an armed thug?" "What do you mean not thinking straight, he''s probably scared silly! Didn''t you see? So many guns pointed at him!" "Makes sense, but I think he might never have seen such a beautiful woman, so his boldness came from infatuation!" "To win over a beautiful woman, you need to stay alive first, right? This kid is definitely going to be gunned down soon!" The chatter was pretty loud, Mountain Chicken chambered a bullet and shouted angrily, "Shut up or I''ll execute you all on the spot!" The passengers instantly fell silent, not daring to make a sound. "Who needs reason! The gun in my hand is the reason!" Mountain Chicken sneered and reached out to grab Tang Yao from the seat. "Damn, can''t win with reason, so now he''s resorting to force?" Ye Huan delivered a knife hand strike, blocking Mountain Chicken''s filthy hand, then pulled Tang Yao into his arms, "Don''t be afraid, miss, I''m here to protect you!" Tang Yao''s face was as pale as paper, utterly terrified. The moment she was held, her face flushed slightly. Not only did she have no desire to struggle, but she subconsciously grabbed the corner of Ye''s clothes. In that instant, she felt an incomparable sense of security. "Kid, are you looking to die?" Mountain Chicken cursed loudly, pressing the gun directly to Ye Huan''s forehead. He then looked at the driver and shouted angrily, "Head to the crematorium! Today, I''m going to bury him myself!" The driver shuddered, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and quickly turned the bus. "Why are you heading to the crematorium, driver? Take us to the hospital!" Ye Huan shouted. "Kid, you must have a death wish!" Mountain Chicken pressed the gun tighter, finger on the trigger, already halfway pressed, "To the hospital? You expect us to pay to send you to the morgue? We don''t have that kind of spare change!" "Send me to the morgue? You got it wrong." Ye Huan shrugged helplessly, "Let me warn you first, I hate being pointed at with a gun, and besides, sending you to the hospital makes it easier to move you into the ICU. After all, killing in Huaxia can cause a lot of trouble." At these words, everyone was stunned. "Gulp!" The passengers, without exception, swallowed hard, looking at Ye Huan like they were seeing a monster! Being held at gunpoint and still daring to threaten the thugs in return, he wasn''t scared silly, he was scared insane!!! "Hahaha!" Mountain Chicken snapped out of it, as if he''d heard the world''s funniest joke, clutching his belly in laughter! The faces of the gangsters were also full of smiles; they had confirmed that this person was thoroughly scared silly! "You hate being pointed at with a gun the most?" Mountain Chicken pressed harder, the gun''s muzzle dead against him, eyes full of disdain, "I''m pointing at you, what can you do..." "What can I do?" Ye Huan''s mouth curled into a slight smile. Seeing Ye Huan''s meaningful smile, Mountain Chicken felt a chill rise from his feet. Feeling something amiss, he immediately pulled the trigger! "Bang!" Flame burst, and the bullet flew out of the barrel. The passengers covered their ears and screamed, closing their eyes, afraid to look! Tang Yao additionally screamed and buried her head into Ye Huan''s embrace! A dull thud, signaling a body fell to the ground in a pool of blood. The timid passengers kept their eyes shut, but the brave ones already opened theirs! The passengers who opened their eyes were instantly stunned by the scene in the bus! Including the gangsters, everyone had eyes full of shock! The body lying in the pool of blood was not Ye Huan but Mountain Chicken, who had just pulled the trigger! "That''s what I did to you, can you still hear me?" Ye Huan blew on the still-smoking muzzle, twisted his neck, stood up, and said, "Driver, head for the hospital, I need to get them checked into the ICU!" "Y-Yes!" The driver was trembling all over. S~ea??h the ovlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Through the rearview mirror, he clearly saw everything that happened. Just as the thug pulled the trigger, this man astonishingly snatched the gun away in less than a second and shot the thug instead! Even in death, the thug probably didn''t know how he died! "Get him, kill him!" The henchmen exchanged glances, cursed loudly, and all pulled out their guns again. But in that moment... Ye Huan darted out abruptly, leaping into the air to dodge a barrage of bullets, then delivered a powerful punch! "Bang!" The thug, hit squarely by the punch, spewed a large mouthful of blood as his body was sent flying, finally crashing against the front windshield. "Die already!!" The thug shouted joyfully, having been waiting for this opportunity. He was sure this shot would send Ye Huan to his grave! However, he soon discovered that no matter what, the trigger wouldn''t budge. "Buddy, you''re playing with guns all wrong." Ye Huan leaned against the handrail, and as he kicked out, his left hand snatched the airborne gun. The gun in the thug''s hand ended up in Ye Huan''s grasp instantly. Ye Huan sidestepped, dodged another bullet, and reached out barehanded. The thug who hadn''t yet fallen to the ground was grabbed back to Ye Huan, who knocked him out with a slap before raising the gun. The thug who had fired watched as the gun was pointed at him, and immediately fainted in fear. The remaining thugs, each of them, knowingly shot themselves in the leg and collapsed unconscious. "I''m not finished playing, this is boring." Ye Huan felt bored, and his right hand holding the gun moved slightly. "Click... click." The complete gun instantly fell apart into pieces, scattering on the ground. Aside from the crisp sound of components hitting the floor, the entire bus fell silent. Everyone''s mouths were wide open, enough to fit a stone, and their eyes were round with amazement. Was this scene that could only be seen in the cinema really happening in reality? Wasn''t this person scared out of his wits? How did he, effortlessly and single-handedly, take down seven armed thugs? This... how could this be possible... But they had to believe it because they witnessed it with their own eyes! "Alright, you guys should call the police now!" Ye Huan sat back in the rear seat and pulled Tang Yao into his arms: "Pretty lady, don''t be scared, we''re safe now!" Tang Yao snapped out of it, her face instantly flushed red like it was about to drip blood! Was this perv treating her like a child to comfort? "You pervert, let me go!" Tang Yao broke free from Ye Huan''s embrace, gritting her teeth. "Pretty lady, you''re burning bridges after crossing them. You wanted me to hold you when you were scared, and now that it''s over, you won''t let me?" Ye Huan shrugged. With that, he smirked and said with a playful tone: "But I have to say, the feeling was quite nice, soft like a little bunny..." "Drop dead!!" Tang Yao, utterly mortified, kicked out at him. "Ring ring!" Suddenly, a phone rang, and Tang Yao froze, her face turning pale with urgency: "Oh no, I''m late!" At this point, Ye Huan remembered he was supposed to meet his "future wife", his face darkened, and he quickly pulled out his phone to check the time. "Damn, there''s no time left!" Ye Huan cursed, opened the window directly. "What are you doing?" Tang Yao was horrified. "What am I doing? I''m in a hurry, gotta jump out first!" With half his body out the window, Ye Huan winked and blew a kiss: "Pretty lady, we just met by chance, so don''t think about me. Bye-bye!" With that, he let go and jumped onto the roof of a private car behind, then sped down the street. Her first kiss blown away, stolen by this rogue? Tang Yao stood there dazed for a moment, then full of shame and anger, shouted out the window. "Who''s going to miss you, go break your neck, you jerk!" Chapter 3: Caution, Danger Ahead! Chapter 3 - 3: Caution, Danger Ahead!Sofia Restaurant, located in the downtown area of Celestial Sea City, is the only five-star restaurant in the city. It''s said that the minimum spending per person can reach twenty thousand. Ye Huan sat in his seat drinking water, cursing silently about wasting money. It''s just a blind date meeting, is it necessary to come to such a high-end place? My future wife better learn to be frugal, wasting money is absolutely a no-go! And most importantly, that squanderer has no sense of time! The meeting was scheduled for eight o''clock, and Brother Huan has already been half an hour late, only to find that the other party still hasn''t arrived! Not only has she not arrived, but now another half hour has passed. It''s now nine o''clock, and the other party is still not here! "Sir, what exactly is the situation with your date?" The waiter''s face looked unpleasant. "Let''s wait a little longer." Ye Huan said calmly. "It''s nine o''clock now, and you have occupied the table for half an hour without ordering, which is troubling for us." Upon hearing this, the men and women waiting in the lounge area wearing suits and evening dresses showed dissatisfaction. Their waiting time for a table had basically reached half an hour or even an hour. You have to understand, at Sofia Restaurant, once one table finishes dining, it usually takes less than two minutes for the next guests to be seated. This occupying-a-table-without-ordering situation has lasted for half an hour and severely disrupted the usual dining order. Ye Huan felt three black lines forming on his forehead; he didn''t even have a dime left to his name. If he orders food and gets stood up, he''ll be screwed, plus this place is expensive. Even washing dishes all night wouldn''t cover the meal cost. "My date hasn''t arrived, so I can''t really order either, right? Let''s wait a bit more." Ye Huan shrugged helplessly. The waitress looked at the time and said coldly, "Fifteen minutes, if you don''t order by then, we will have to ask you to leave!" With that, her face turned even colder, and her gaze towards Ye Huan was filled with contempt. This man was dressed plainly, even a bit scruffy, wearing a T-shirt and patched jeans, lacking noble aura, looking out of place in the luxurious restaurant. If it weren''t for the fact that the table was indeed reserved, she would have called security to kick him out already. After all, at Sofia Restaurant, every table''s expenditure gives the corresponding waiter a commission accordingly. "Occupying a public resource without using it for half an hour, plus the previous half-hour of an empty table, the real loss is at least eight hundred to a thousand!" And he kept saying he was here to meet his fiance; could it be that he''s so poor, yet his fiance is a rich and beautiful girl? Who would believe that? Thinking of this made the waitress even angrier, storming towards the security department at the door, whispering something to the security guards. "Get him out of here!" The waitress returned to the restaurant, yelling sternly. Soon, four bulky security guards approached, saying, "Hey buddy, let''s get going, shall we?" Ye Huan glanced at the clock nearby, frowned, and said, "It''s only been two minutes, didn''t you say fifteen?" "Ha!" The waitress sneered, "You''ve already severely disrupted our dining order. Either you order now, or you leave immediately!" "Yeah, you''re here to meet your fiance? Come on, buddy, not to burst your bubble, but couples dining here are generally either rich or powerful, with assets of at least millions or billions. You think you can meet your fiance here? Daydreaming?" The security team leader chimed in, "Be sensible, leave quickly, or we''ll handle you for disrupting the dining order." "It''s not right to treat customers like this, Sofia''s supposed to be a big place." "Exactly because it''s such a big place, there''s no room for bad apples like you!" The waitress folded her arms, smirking, "To think I actually believed your nonsense earlier, thinking you were actually a customer." Meanwhile, the rich kids in the waiting area voiced their support. "Buddy, don''t you take a good look at yourself, is this a place you can come to? I bet you just came in for the air conditioning. Isn''t it better to enjoy free air conditioning at a supermarket?" "This lady and I are a couple, our family assets exceed two million, otherwise we wouldn''t dare to dine here." "Exactly, looking at you, I bet you just moved some bricks? Hurry up and leave, don''t affect our dining!" The rich kids verbally attacked Ye Huan. Ye Huan frowned slightly, "I really am here to see my fiance; it''s just that the other party''s punctuality is lacking, she''s just late." The waiter laughed angrily, saying to the security guard, "Stop wasting time talking to him, just throw him out and give the table to someone in need." "Are you leaving on your own, or shall we escort you?" The security leader said with a fierce expression, "If we do it, there might be some injuries." Seeing that Ye Huan was still standing still, the security leader waved his hand. The security guards nodded knowingly and directly held Ye Huan''s arms. A minute later, the security leader cursed, "Are you all useless? Two hundred pounds of muscle gone to waste? I''ve given you plenty of benefits, and you let me down at this crucial moment? I told you to lift him out, not just grab his arms!" The security guards, blushing with embarrassment, exerted even more effort! Yet they found that no matter what, even using their full strength, they couldn''t move this man an inch! This man and the chair he was sitting on seemed nailed to the ground! "A bunch of useless idiots!" The security leader cursed, grabbing Ye Huan''s collar with one hand. At this moment, the waitress chuckled mockingly, knowing the security leader was really pissed off. Which means this freeloader is about to face some tough times! The security leader had once retired from the special forces, his strength comparable to a bull, having once punched through a steel plate! "This behavior I perceive as provoking me." Ye Huan calmly sipped his tea, "Not gonna lie, I hate it when people provoke me. You still have time to let go." "Provoke? I''m teaching you a lesson!" The security leader roared, applying force to grip Ye Huan''s collar with his right hand. But soon, his forehead broke out in cold sweat; in shock, he used all his strength! "Hurry up and teach him a lesson!" The waitress, arms akimbo, urged the security leader, "Hurry up!" "I want to hurry up too!" The security leader cursed inwardly, his face turning red from exerting full strength, still unable to make Ye Huan budge! How is this possible! His face was filled with disbelief, someone who could punch through steel couldn''t lift this freeloader by force? Two minutes later, Ye Huan slowly turned his head, his eyes icy. The security leader felt like a beast was staring at him, a strong sense of danger arose in his heart. Ye Huan grabbed the security leader''s collar with one hand, smilingly said. "Now, it''s my turn, right?" As soon as the words fell, the security leader shivered. "Get him out already, why so much nonsense!" The waitress was dissatisfied. In the next second, her eyes widened in disbelief, stepping back a few steps. "This... how is this possible..." The rich kids in the waiting area, watching the drama unfold, all echoed this soul-searching question, eyes filled with shock. This man actually lifted the two-hundred-pound-looking security leader with just two fingers?

Chapter 4 - 4: Fiancee?"Why do some people always fail to see the obvious? This puts me in a tough spot," Ye Huan said, grabbing the security chief by his collar. At this moment, the security chief''s feet were off the ground. The collar squeezed his neck, making it hard for him to breathe. Ye Huan''s lips curled slightly, his palm raised in the air. The security chief''s face was filled with panic, his legs flailing like a fish out of water. "Bang!!!" The sound of a slap echoed throughout the restaurant. The security chief''s body flew dozens of meters, blood splattering as he exited through the restaurant door, landing unconscious on the ground. The restaurant fell into a dead silence. A deadly quiet... "This... this..." the waiter and the other security guards stuttered with trembling lips. As restaurant staff, they were well aware of the security chief''s prowess; once a top performer in the special forces. But in front of this man, he was like a helpless chick, unable to withstand even one move? And to be tossed so far, just like a kitten in his hands? "Thud!" The security guards and waitstaff, filled with terror, collapsed to the ground with weakened knees. They were utterly terrified, wondering what kind of person they had dared to provoke!? Ye Huan paid them no mind and glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already 9:15! Ye Huan''s face darkenedcould it be that woman really stood him up? How impressive. As the saying goes, if you''re not welcome here, you''ll find a place that will have you... "I''m sorry, I''m late!" At this moment, a striking figure appeared outside the restaurant door, her voice urgent. The waiter, seeing her, quickly got up and ran over: "Manager Tang, you... you should leave quickly, there''s a terrorist in our restaurant!" "A terrorist? Who?" Tang Yao asked, recalling the security chief''s miserable state outside, her face anxious. "Him!" The waiter pointed at Ye Huan, "He said he came to see his fiance, but dressed like that, there''s no way he''d be coming to a high-class restaurant like ours to see a fiance. I''m sure he''s just here for the free air conditioning!" "If Table 7 hadn''t been reserved, we''d have asked him to leave long ago!" "Just a few minutes ago, he even had a scuffle with Security Chief Wang, sending him flying outdefinitely a terrorist!" "I highly suspect he''s a wanted criminal; otherwise, how could he be so skilled!" Sar?h the n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The waiter, full of vigilance, rattled on incessantly, painting Ye Huan as a heinous villain without a shred of good. Tang Yao paused, glancing over at Table 7. At this moment, Ye Huan also turned his head. Their eyes met, both pointing accusingly at each other! "Pervert!" "Little bunny!" Little bunny? The nickname brought a blush to Tang Yao''s cheeks. She shot Ye Huan a look and asked, "Never mind that for now, how did you become a terrorist?" Ye Huan looked at the waiter, his lips curling slightly, "Shouldn''t you be asking your staff?" The waiter bowed her head, shaking violently! She never expected the two actually knew each other! "What''s going on?" Tang Yao''s gaze turned icy. "I... I misunderstood this gentleman, I''m... I''m sorry..." The waiter''s body was shaking uncontrollably: "He said he came to meet his fiance, and he came to Table 7, but the person who reserved Table 7 hadn''t arrived, so..." "I reserved Table 7, is there a problem?" Tang Yao said coldly. The next moment, she realized something, looked at Ye Huan, and exclaimed, "You came to meet your fiance, and it''s Table 7?" "Yes, the message I received told me to come to Table 7." Ye Huan said this, his eyes suddenly lighting up, "You reserved Table 7, so then my fiance is you?" Tang Yao''s knees went weak, nearly collapsing on the spot. The CEO''s fianc is such a pervert? "Let''s not talk about this!" Tang Yao bit her lip gently, asking, "What''s really going on here?" "What''s going on? Honey, you should listen for yourself." Ye Huan''s lips quirked up, pulling out his phone and placing it on the table. The phone played the harsh words spoken by the waiter while chasing away Ye Huan. After listening, Tang Yao''s face immediately darkened. "Were those employee training sessions for nothing? Everyone is equal at Sofia Restaurant; that''s the principle you memorized on your first day, right? Even if he were truly here for the air conditioning, he''s still our guest, and we should serve him!" Tang Yao''s eyes widened with a hint of anger as she pointed to the door, "You, and the rest of you, are fired. Leave!" In an instant, the four security guards who were pointed at, along with the waiter who had already collapsed on the ground, turned ashen-faced! The salaries at Sofia Restaurant were exceptionally high; others were breaking their necks to get in! These security guards and waitstaff spent fifty thousand just to secure these positions by pulling strings, and now, after barely a month on the job and not even recovering the cost, they''re getting fired! "Brother... please spare us, we''re begging you!" The waiter clung to Ye Huan''s leg, crying loudly, even deliberately undoing a button of her shirt beneath her uniform, the implication clear! "Honey, what''s going on with our restaurant, allowing freeloaders?" Ye Huan looked displeased, kicking the waitress away and grabbing her by the collar to toss her outside, "If they want free air conditioning, isn''t the mall better for that?" As he said this, the rich kids waiting in the lobby all bowed their heads, not daring to look! Just because of his fiance, who would dare to blab on! "So, do you need me to invite you, or will you roll out yourselves?!" Ye Huan scanned the security guards. The guards'' lips trembled, and after removing their armbands, they consciously "rolled" out, literally rolling out. They started rolling from the middle of the corridor until they rolled down the steps outside the door! ... "Education!" "Ah, I''m ashamed to say, I almost made it to a PhD, and then something unexpected happened?" Tang Yao took notes, quite puzzled, but still rather satisfied. After all, almost a PhD, there must at least be a master''s or postgraduate degree. "Honey, aren''t you hot wearing earmuffs in this hot weather?" Ye Huan asked with a smile. "Shut up, who''s your wife?!" Tang Yao''s face was full of shame and anger, "Besides, whether I''m hot or not is none of your business, just answer my questions!" She couldn''t possibly say that underneath the earmuffs was a Bluetooth earpiece, transmitting their entire conversation to someone else''s ear. "Where are you working now, and in what position?" "Currently unemployed, but I''ve worked in various high-tech research and development roles, with extensive project experience." "High-tech research and development?" Tang Yao said with interest, "Can you tell me approximately what direction that was?" Ye Huan pondered for a moment and said, "I''ve held multiple positions before, like 3D cubic space movement researcher, social and corporate order maintenance researcher, offline community C2C resource usage developer." Tang Yao was stunned, all these terms she had never heard of. As one of the top companies in Celestial Sea City, Tianyun International also has quite a few high-tech R&D projects. As the president''s secretary, she had plenty of opportunities to come into contact with these confidential projects, yet these terms still baffled her. It seems this rascal might actually have some skills. Tang Yao nodded in satisfaction. A cold voice in the earpiece sounded, seemingly much more satisfied, "Keep asking." "May I ask what your specific education level is? What was the unexpected event that kept you from pursuing a PhD?" Tang Yao asked with a smile. "Oh, my education is elementary school, but my talent is even more PhD than a PhD. The unexpected event was the old man at home not letting me go to school!" "Pfft." Hearing this, Tang Yao suddenly sprayed a mouthful of tea out. The Huan Bro opposite her naturally became the primary victim. "Honey, I know you''re excited, but you didn''t have to spray tea, did you?" Ye Huan wiped the tea off his face, a look of exasperation. "Who''s excited?!" Tang Yao wanted to cry without tears; this was the first time she''d met someone with such thick skin. Elementary school education claimed as almost a PhD? That''s a difference of a billion points! She rubbed her throbbing forehead and seemed to think of something, her face changed slightly, and she continued, "Those high-tech developments of yours, explain them to me in layman''s terms." "Mover;" "Security guard;" "Research on how to make the furnace burn hotter;" Ye Huan didn''t say was. What he moved were the bodies of top Western assassins he had eliminated, simply put, corpse disposal; He once took a billion, barely protecting the royal family of a certain European country for three days; The furnace he stoked was with some thousand tons of gold sent by major Western financial groups, which had nowhere to be placed in his overseas villa; When the coal ran out in winter, he''d throw in a few gold bars to burn... It''s quite shocking to say out loud. To avoid scaring his wife, he didn''t explain too clearly. After speaking, Ye Huan looked serious, "Alright, wife, you''ve asked me so much, but I still don''t know your name." Meanwhile, in a parking lot near the restaurant, inside a million-dollar Rolls-Royce. Liu Tianyun''s pretty face was cold. She had already learned about Tang Yao encountering a thug and a pervert on the bus and knew that her "fianc" was that "pervert"! She originally thought that no matter what, her grandfather wouldn''t find her a bad fianc. Now, it seems, this guy is nothing but a good-for-nothing, smooth-talking scoundrel! No marriage! This engagement cannot proceed! But thinking of her grandfather''s words, that if she didn''t marry, she couldn''t inherit the family business, she felt deeply powerless. Liu Tianyun rubbed her forehead helplessly, said something into the earpiece, and then took it off. "Honey, quickly tell me your name." Ye Huan looked hopeful. Tang Yao realized she was being played, furious beyond belief, there was no way she''d tell Ye Huan her name. "Tomorrow morning at ten, go to Tianyun International for an interview!" Tang Yao slammed the table, stood up, and then stormed off, grabbing her bag and heading out of the restaurant. Ye Huan looked exasperated. This woman''s face changes faster than Sun Wukong''s seventy-two transformations, she had just been excitedly spraying tea. Chapter 5: Salesperson? Chapter 5 - 5: Salesperson?"President, I have followed your instructions and informed him to come to the company for an interview at ten tomorrow morning." Tang Yao opened the door to the back seat of the Rolls-Royce and got in. Liu Tianyun nodded, looking apologetic, "Thank you for rushing back during your vacation." "It''s nothing." Tang Yao smiled, then asked in surprise, "But President, are you really going to marry that man?" She felt it was unbelievable. Liu Tianyun, the only daughter of one of the four major families in Celestial Sea Citythe Liu family, and the leading beauty among the city''s four beauties, is a star entrepreneur. Her figure and beauty are top-notch, and those pursuing her could line up from the east end of the city to the west end. Who could believe she''s suddenly going to marry such a scoundrel? "It''s not set in stone yet. I need to communicate more with my family." Liu Tianyun sighed, rubbing her aching forehead with her fingers. She didn''t understand what kind of impulsiveness her grandfather had. Just a few days ago, he suddenly told her that she had a childhood engagement, and that now it''s about time to marry. He also said that the other party is the Liu family''s lucky star, getting him is equivalent to getting the whole world? This man is full of lies and nonsense, completely different from what her grandfather described! Liu Tianyun''s face turned cold, "Inform the HR department to give him a hard time in tomorrow''s interview, send him to the cleaning department to clean toilets." "President, isn''t that a bit too much? No matter what, he''s still your fi..." Tang Yao paused, still unable to say the word "fianc." "Just do as I say." Liu Tianyun said indifferently, "Whatever abilities one has should dictate their position!" Tang Yao nodded helplessly. Liu Tianyun changed the subject, suddenly asking, "Tang Yao, you mentioned you were robbed by bandits on the bus before? Are you okay?" Tang Yao was taken aback, recalling the scene on the bus, her face flushed with embarrassment! She hadn''t even had a boyfriend, never let a man touch her, but today she was hugged by that scoundrel, how awful. "President, don''t worry, I''m fine." "I''ll send him to the cleaning department to clean toilets, make him do it willingly, just wait and see, President!" Tang Yao finished speaking earnestly, then opened the car door, stepped out, and swiftly left. Liu Tianyun nodded satisfactorily, instructing the driver to start the car. Back at the villa, Liu Tianyun directly flopped onto the bed, angrily pounding the pillow. She thought about it all the way, still not understanding why her grandfather set up a childhood engagement for her and praised that smooth-tongued man to the heavens! Liu Tianyun sighed deeply, carefully took out an old, yellowed photo from under her pillow. The photo showed a boy with a toothpick in his mouth, full of arrogance, with his arm around a dirty little girl whose eyes were glistening with tears. Liu Tianyun gazed at the photo, her eyes full of longing. This was the only photo "big brother" left behind before leaving. No one in Celestial Sea City knew, that the Liu family''s little princess, Liu Tianyun, due to family upheaval, actually spent her childhood in an orphanage. Back then, she wasn''t the leading beauty in Celestial Sea City, nor was she a star entrepreneur, just a dirty little girl in the orphanage, often bullied by others. She remembered, whenever bullied, she wouldn''t resist, only crying loudly, which made others bully her even more. But everything changed when that "big brother" suddenly showed up. Whenever she was bullied, he would step forward. He was beaten until his head was bleeding countless times, yet still stood in front of her. When she was hungry at night, he would sneak into the kitchen, enduring the principal''s scolding and punishment, to steal food for her. Eventually, he became the king of kids in the orphanage, and no one dared to bully her anymore, even saying that when she grew up, she would definitely be a beauty, and he would marry her... But before she got beautiful, he suddenly left... An old man came and took him away. This separation lasted fifteen years, both the old man and "big brother" disappeared without a trace! Liu Tianyun stroked the old photo, smiling bitterly. "Big brother, if you don''t show up soon, someone else will marry me." ... "Salesman, three thousand a month?" Ye Huan was dumbfounded, looking completely incredulous. After spending a night under a bridge, he came for the interview early in the morning, only to find out it''s a three thousand monthly salary salesman position? This is too ridiculous! "Mr. Ye, it''s three thousand plus a five percent commission. Given your education and work experience, we wouldn''t even assign you to clean toilets, but the President ordered us to pass you in the interview and assign you to the sales department." The female interviewer said unemotionally, "There are countless people wanting to join Tianyun International as a salesman, so there''s a strict target. You must achieve three million in sales the first month, or you''re fired. If you don''t want the position, you can collect a fifty yuan transport fee and turn right when you exit." Ye Huan''s face turned dark. Not taking the job? How would he marry his wife without it? He neither has her contact information nor even knows her name. "Mr. Ye, you do have another option, the cleaning department is short of a toilet cleaner, base salary five thousand plus commission." "No, I''ll go to the sales department!" Ye Huan quickly said. "Alright, please formally join this afternoon. At that time, collect your work badge from the front desk on the first floor, and report to the sales department manager''s office." With that, the female interviewer took her folder and walked out of the office. Ye Huan felt exasperated, cleaning toilets has commission? Ridiculous. ... Tianyun International, top floor, President''s office. "Assistant Tang, it''s done." The female interviewer smiled, "Mr. Ye has agreed to join the sales department." "Good, you can go back." Tang Yao said with a smile, secretly overjoyed! A month''s sales target of three million, he''ll never achieve it. By then, direct him to the cleaning department, let him clean toilets! Hmph! For daring to harass me on the bus, this is the consequence! Sar?h the n??el Fire.nt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Chapter 6: Old Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor? Bragging! Chapter 6 - 6: Old Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor? Bragging!"Gurgle... Gurgle..." Walking out of the office building, Ye Huan''s stomach protested, but there was nothing he could do about it. He didn''t have a single penny on him. It''s not like he could rob a store on the street, right? His wife was really something, leaving in such a hurry yesterday without leaving some money behind. And he had to wait until the afternoon to start his job. Without a company badge, he couldn''t go to the company cafeteria at noon, so he''d go hungry againtroublesome! At this moment, Ye Huan''s nose suddenly twitched... Hmm? Ginseng? And also... Asparagus root? Who mixed these two together? Are they courting death? "Come and have a look!" Su Qingqing shouted with a smile through a megaphone, "Tianyun International is about to launch its newest Meiying series skincare cream, which will easily make your skin firm and bouncy, back to baby level, with free trials for a limited time!" But it was the CBD business district and work hours, so her shouting had no effectshe was the only one there. Seeing a man approaching, Su Qingqing exclaimed in surprise, "Sir, would you like to try our product?" "Beauty, do you have a problem with your IQ?" Ye Huan asked. Sarch* The ovelFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Su Qingqing was stunned for a moment, then glared with her beautiful eyes, "You''re the one with the IQ problem, your whole family has the IQ problem, what''s with your speech?" "As the saying goes, disasters don''t affect family. How can you curse someone''s whole family? I didn''t expect you to look so good but speak like this," Ye Huan said, somewhat displeased. Su Qingqing was undeniably beautiful, with extremely delicate features, long black hair tied into a single ponytail, a black OL uniform accentuating her S-curve figure, wearing flesh-colored pantyhose with black crystal high heels beneath her legs. "Are you sick or something? You start by cursing people and then blame me?" Su Qingqing was quite upset, thinking she might have encountered a mental case. "Did I say wrong that you have an IQ problem?" Ye Huan pointed to the skincare cream on the table in front of Su Qingqing, "This has ginseng and asparagus root mixed, doesn''t it?" Su Qingqing was dumbfounded, then directly took out her phone and started dialing, "Hello, 110? Someone is stealing our company''s business se..." Before she could finish, Ye Huan directly snatched her phone and hung up. "What are you doing!" "I''m helping you, why are you calling the police on me?" Ye Huan scolded, "Ginseng and asparagus root, one is fiery and the other is cold, ice and fire can''t mix. Even if there aren''t much of these two ingredients in your skincare cream, it can still cause skin ulceration for some users, and in severe cases, it could be life-threatening!" "Nonsense!" "Our products, which we dare to market, have all gone through long-term tests and pose no safety risks. So far, fifty people have used this product with good effects." "Moreover, confess, how do you know the components of our skincare formula? Be honest, or you''ll rot in prison!" Su Qingqing''s face was stern as she slapped the megaphone heavily on the table. "I''m an old Chinese medicine practitioner, so I can naturally smell the ingredients. Also, if your product shows good test results, that''s only because the symptom onset time for the test subjects hasn''t come yet." "Old Chinese medicine? I think you''re just BS-ing." Su Qingqing looked distrustful and extended her hand, "Give me back my phone, go away, stop disturbing me from promoting the product." Ye Huan''s face darkened like Bao Qingtian. If it were someone else''s company, Huan would definitely walk away on the spot. But that''s not an option now! This is his wife''s company. If this skincare product hits the market, within three months, many people''s skin would ulcerate, and by then, Tianyun International''s reputation would be completely ruined. "Beautiful, there''s really a problem with this skincare cream formula, you all should stop the entire product line," Ye Huan returned the phone, earnestly advising, "Honestly, I''m joining Tianyun International this afternoon, can''t betray my own company, right?" "Joining? You''re trying to steal trade secrets, aren''t you? I''ll inform HR to fire you this afternoon," Su Qingqing grabbed back her phone, coldly snorted, then put it back in her pocket while looking away. At this point, a car pulled up nearby. A group of people got out of the car. Two men were surrounded by uniformed employees at the center stageone in a suit and tie, and the other in a doctor''s white coat. "Qingqing? What are you doing here?" the man asked in confusion. He wore an expensive Givenchy suit, wide-shouldered and sturdy. Seeing him arrive, Su Qingqing frowned slightly, her voice cold, "Wu De''an, how many times have I told you, my nickname isn''t for you to use." She then noticed the person next to Wu De''an and smiled, "Mr. Zhang, you''ve come." The doctor, Zhang Song, nodded with a calm expression. "Qingqing, you just haven''t recognized my goodness..." The man chuckled, only to be cut off by Su Qingqing impatiently, "I don''t have time to spar with you; there''s a matter to handle here." With that, she laid out everything that had just happened. Wu De''an and Zhang Song exchanged glances, their expressions briefly changing. "Kid, who are you?" Wu De''an frowned, "You''re claiming our product has... has quality issues?" "It''s not a quality issue; it''s a formula issue," Ye Huan spread his hands helplessly. "Formula issue?" Zhang Song crossed his arms, looking displeased, "Kid, do you know who I am? The formula personally developed by me is something people like you can question?" "Exactly." The employees echoed in agreement. Upon hearing Ye Huan mention "stealing trade secrets," their attitude towards Ye Huan naturally wasn''t good. "Dr. Zhang''s medical skills are renowned across the world; his formula can''t possibly have any problems." "How could someone like you question Dr. Zhang''s medical skills?" "I think this kid is an undercover sent by a rival company, intent on disrupting our new product launchthat''s a crime worth punishing." "Yeah, and he even knows our formula, surely he stole our trade secrets, we should call the police and have him arrested." "Arrested? This kind of person should be executed, even ten times wouldn''t be enough!" The employees buzzed with discussion, verbally attacking Ye Huan. Ye Huan''s face turned a few shades darker, and he coldly said, "I''ll say it again, if you insist on launching this skincare cream, Tianyun International is finished." Wu De''an''s eyes were sinister, his voice cold, "Stop spouting useless things. Are you the one who told Qingqing the new product contained asparagus root and ginseng?" "I''m an old Chinese medicine practitioner; I could smell it, and these two ingredients must never be mixed, or there''ll be big issues." "Old Chinese medicine? I think you''re just pretending, ''smelling'' the formula? That''s the first time I''ve heard of such nonsense, ridiculous!" Wu De''an had a face full of mockery. Zhang Song''s lips also curled into a mocking smile. Indeed, old Chinese medicine doctors who were familiar with herbs could detect ingredients by smell. But not at such a young age. "Come clean, where did you steal the formula from?" Wu De''an said coolly. "I said, I smelled it, I don''t want to argue with you," Ye Huan said plainly, "I can only tell you, this thing can''t be released, or Tianyun is doomed." "Utterly ridiculous!" Wu De''an''s face was gloomy, "The product formula is top secret, only the innermost members can know. Admit how you stole it! Besides, we have no need for your concern about the product, the formula was personally developed by Dr. Zhang Song at the Celestial Sea City TCM hospital and has been testedit can''t possibly pose any safety risks." Celestial Sea City TCM HospitalZhang Song? Ye Huan furrowed his brows. This title rang a bell for him. Once at an overseas medical forum, Huan had casually advised an old man named Zhang Song. Since then, the old man had always begged to be Huan''s apprentice. However... That old man and this Zhang Song were completely different people. Ye Huan seemed to have realized something and asked Wu De''an, "Dude, you''re saying this old man next to you is Zhang Song, the Zhang Song from Celestial Sea City Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital?" Wu De''an and "Zhang Song" both dodged a bit in their gaze, then quickly calmed down. "It''s good you''ve heard of my name, now hurry up and admit your mistake!" Zhang Song roared. Ye Huan scrutinized "Zhang Song," his lips curling into an amused smile, "Are you really Zhang Song?" "Zhang Song" frantically dodged, waving his hand and turning his head away with a face full of anger, clearly guilty as charged. "Kid, what''s your intention?" Wu De''an''s voice lowered threateningly, "If you don''t give us a satisfactory explanation today, expect to explain things to the police." With that, he took out his phone, preparing to call the police. Ye Huan ignored him, chuckled lightly, and dialed a number, boisterously saying, "Zhang Song? I''m in Huaxia now, come down to the Tianyun International building, ten minutes tops, I won''t wait beyond that, got it?" Chapter 7: The Real and Fake Zhang Song Chapter 7 - 7: The Real and Fake Zhang Song"Alright, that''s it, I''ll hang up now." Ye Huan said, then hung up the phone. "..." After Ye Huan finished this call, the entire room fell silent. At this moment, even if a pin dropped to the ground, it would be heard clearly. The employees looked at Ye Huan as if watching a fool. Wu De''an and "Zhang Song" both secretly sighed with relief, exchanged glances, and nodded slightly with a look of derision in their eyes. Who is Zhang Song? He is a truly renowned physician, even the attending doctor for many high-ranking officials in both government and military, a figure considered to be of legendary status within the global medical community! Does this kid really have the contact number of such an eminent person? Moreover, did this kid just order Zhang Song around on the phone? And the other party agreed to come over? This is absolutely impossible, it''s simply laughable! Wu De''an secretly took out his phone and dialed 110. "Hello, officer. We have apprehended a criminal involved in corporate espionage here. Could you send officers to take him away?" "Alright, we are now outside Tianyun International''s building." "Ten minutes? Okay!" Wu De''an thanked them with a smile, hung up, and looked at Ye Huan with a sneer: "Kid, refusing to give up till you see the Yellow River? Well, go explain yourself to the police later. However, I can guess some things. Surely, your backing company stole our skincare cream formula and is secretly working overtime on production. Your slander about our formula having issues, causing us to temporarily delay the launch of our Mei Ying product must be aiming to slow down our product launch to take the market by storm with a low price." Ye Huan remained calm and indifferent. "Caught on and at a loss for words?" Wu De''an sneered, "No worries, I hope you can still be dumb when you enter the police station." Su Qingqing observed, her brows slightly furrowed. Though this person is annoying, he was indeed bewitched by the employer to deviate from the right path, the one who should be jailed is their company''s boss, not him himself. He looks about the same age as me, only in his twenties. If caught, his life could be ruined. "Stop causing trouble," Su Qingqing said to Ye Huan with hands on hips, "I know you are from a rival company, but why not earn money elsewhere? No need to work for such unscrupulous merchants, right? You better say which company you are from, or there might be no chance later." Ye Huan shrugged and said, "I''m not from any company. I just saw there''s an issue with the formula and wanted to warn you." "You... beyond saving." Seeing Ye Huan still stubborn, Su Qingqing got annoyed, stopped trying to persuade, and stormed off to one side angrily. ... A police car parked by the roadside, with a policewoman leading two male officers towards them. "Hello, I am Qin Ya, the captain of the criminal investigation unit at the city center police station." The policewoman saluted and spoke calmly. "Officer, finally I can look forward to seeing you!" Wu De''an exhaled heavily like a weight off his shoulders, pointed at Ye Huan with indignation, and said painfully, "This person has stolen our trade secret, the formula for Tianyun International''s latest Mei Ying series skincare cream, and we request the police to arrest him." Qin Ya frowned slightly, noted the information in her notebook, and then asked Ye Huan, "Do you have anything to say?" "I also want to report," Ye Huan pointed at Wu De''an and "Zhang Song", "the two of them are colluding and stealing someone else''s medical formula." Wu De''an and "Zhang Song" were taken aback, both cursing in unison, "Nonsense!" "And they''re also suspected of impersonating someone else''s identity to defraud Tianyun International." Ye Huan continued. "Enough, stop making a fuss, do you really have no fear of spending a lifetime in prison?" Su Qingqing hurriedly covered Ye Huan''s mouth and said eagerly, "Captain Qin, don''t listen to his nonsense, he''s been deceived by unscrupulous merchants, please be lenient." "Su Qingqing, why are you defending outsiders?" Wu De''an was very dissatisfied and scolded, "Such criminals should be executed!" "Yes, execution is appropriate!" "Zhang Song" cursed, "Captain Qin, even executing such a person ten times wouldn''t be enough, he stole the formula I developed on my own." "You are..." Qin Ya frowned slightly. "I am Zhang Song!" As soon as he said this, Qin Ya and the two male officers were astonished beyond measure. Isn''t Zhang Song the famous physician people were talking about? Surprisingly, encountering him here. Ye Huan helplessly spread his hands and said, "Officer, he''s impersonating someone else, how could he be Zhang Song, the real Zhang Song is still on the way, this is just a criminal." "Please come with us back to the police station for a detailed explanation of the situation." Qin Ya said calmly, took out a shimmering pair of handcuffs from her waist, intending to cuff Ye Huan. "Wait!" A loud urgent shout accompanied by the roar of a car engine came over. A Wuling Hong Guang minivan skidded to a halt, raising a cloud of yellow dust. An old man with hardly any hair and wearing a white lab coat stepped out of the car. When "Zhang Song" and Wu De''an saw him, their eyes opened wide in shock, and they trembled dramatically. They knew this old man! Only to see the old man rush to Ye Huan, clasping his hands in respect and full of reverence said, "Master!" Watching this scene, Wu Dean and "Zhang Song" were dumbfounded. Master? Zhang... Zhang Song actually called this young man "Master"? What... What is happening? That''s right, this elder with scant hair is the famous miracle doctor of the Celestial Sea City Traditional Chinese Medicine HospitalZhang Song! Ye Huan helped the old man up and said, "Let''s deal with this situation first. I called you over because someone is impersonating you." "Alright." The old man gasped for breath, stood up, and followed Ye Huan''s gaze, his eyes fixing on "Zhang Song," asking in confusion, "Wu Tian?" "Zhang Song" frantically avoided eye contact, his legs trembling uncontrollably, not daring to speak. "Officer, look." Ye Huan pointed at the real Zhang Song and said to Qin Ya, "This is the real Zhang Song, that person is just an impostor." Qin Ya''s hand, holding the handcuffs, hung in the air, her brow furrowed slightly, "What exactly is going on?" "What''s going on, of course, you need to ask this person who reported it, right?" Ye Huan asked with a smile. "You... don''t talk nonsense, the one beside me is... is the real Dr. Zhang..." Wu Dean said weakly, with an expression that was both incredulous and on the verge of tears. But before Wu Dean could finish... The real Zhang Song directly took out a certificate and handed it to Qin Ya. Medical Practice LicenseName: Zhang Song! "Thud!" The fake "Zhang Song," Wu Tian, along with Wu Dean, their legs gave way, collapsing directly to the ground. Zhang Song looked at Wu Tian with disdain in his eyes, "Captain Qin, this impostor''s real name is Wu Tian. He used to be an errand assistant under me, but was fired because of dishonesty. I didn''t expect him to dare impersonate me. Please investigate properly." Listening to this, everyone''s eyes, including Su Qingqing''s, widened like eggs, revealing thick disbelief! What... What is happening? "Zhang Song" was actually a fake? This "Zhang Song" is the genuine article? In that case... Everyone present turned their gaze to the calm man with a toothpick in his mouth... Ye Huan! "Hiss" At once, everyone present gasped several times in surprise. This Ye Huan, actually brought Zhang Song, the miracle doctor, over with just one phone call!? The elder they were respecting just now turned out to be a fake? And, what exactly is happening here! This real Zhang Song called Ye Huan "Master"! What kind of situation is this! This person is so young, why does a top-tier figure in Chinese medicine like Zhang Song call him Master, and with such respect? Could it be that he really discerned the formula of Meiying just by smelling it earlier? Absolutely possible! For Zhang Song to call him Master, it means his skill in Chinese medicine surely surpasses Zhang Song! Every eye present, including Su Qingqing''s, widened to egg size, filled with deep shock. They couldn''t believe what was happening before their eyes. The medical skill of a young man actually surpassed the renowned miracle doctor Zhang Song! But... This scene unfolded right before their eyes, and they couldn''t help but believe it! Beside them, after Su Qingqing calmed down, her expression turned solemn. If Ye Huan''s medical skills are so profound, then the issues he pointed out in the skincare product formula... Thinking of this, Su Qingqing''s expression changed. She was about to speak. Ye Huan seemed to know what she wanted to say. He picked up the skincare cream from the table and handed it to Zhang Song, saying: "Old man, have a sniff." "Alright." Zhang Song took the skincare cream, placed it near his nose, and sniffed hard, then his expression immediately changed. "Ginseng, Asparagus? And the proportion of these herbs..." "Isn''t this exact proportion the same as the formula I developed earlier for the skin care paste?" ``` Sarch* The n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Chapter 8: Furious Chapter 8 - 8: FuriousUpon finishing his sentence, Zhang Song quickly turned his head and looked at Wu Tian. Wu Tian wiped the sweat from his forehead, lowering his head without daring to speak. "Captain Qin, do you understand now?" Ye Huan smiled, "This guy named Wu Tian stole the formula developed by Zhang Song and then colluded with someone to defraud Tianyun International." "We... we..." Wu De''an thought to retort but couldn''t come up with any words. Both of them looked ashen-faced, never expecting that a suddenly appearing person would actually know Zhang SongDoctor Zhang! And Zhang Song even called him master, which is absurd! "Both of you, come with us, will you?" Qin Ya said coldly, then waved her hand grandly. Two male officers stepped forward and handcuffed Wu Tian and Wu De''an. Wu De''an''s lips trembled, filled with deep regret. You must know, commercial fraud is a serious crime in Huaxia! Plus, the crime of copyright infringement and identity fraud... At worst, you''d sit in jail for life, at best, executed ten times over! Thinking of this, Wu De''an shivered all over. Three years into Tianyun International, he''d mixed his way up to the position of Deputy Director of the Product Department, with a monthly salary of a million, living the life of the upper-class, dealing with bosses and managers of major companies! Most importantly, he was only twenty-nine, with a bright future ahead, those fifty-something bosses were rushing to curry favor with him, countless beautiful women lined up to bed with him! To describe him as a person above others is not an exaggeration! Absolutely cannot go to prison! Cannot go to prison! If he goes to prison, this whole life is utterly ruined! Wu De''an knelt down on his knees, crying out, "Mr. Zhang... Mr. Zhang, please forgive me this time! I beg you, I didn''t do it on purpose, it''s all because of him..." As he spoke, his eyes lit up, pointing at Wu Tian, "He was the one who incited me, he was the one who stole the formula, it has nothing to do with me!" "Nonsense!" Wu Tian, outraged, blustered with anger, "Indeed, I stole the formula, but wasn''t it you who incited me, saying we could collaborate on developing a cream, giving me a corresponding share for each jar sold, which is why I stole it!" "Officer, he... he is spouting nonsense!" Wu De''an begged, "Please don''t arrest me, don''t arrest me, okay!" "Sir, please cooperate with our investigation!" Qin Ya sternly ordered, "Take them away!" Wu Tian was very compliant, but as Wu De''an was about to be taken away by the officers, he broke free and ran directly to Ye Huan, kneeling down, kowtowing repeatedly, "Big... Brother, please speak for me, will you, I beg you..." "Plead?" Ye Huan showed a face of ''surprise,'' saying, "But I just heard someone wanted me to rot in jail forever?" "I... I was momentarily confused!" Wu De''an anxiously said, "I''ll give you a million, if... if you help me plead, okay?" "You were confused, but I am not." As soon as he finished speaking, a dull thud was heard. With a kick, Ye Huan sent Wu De''an flying ten meters away to the police car door, the sharp pain in his abdomen making him howl endlessly. Qin Ya frowned slightly but didn''t react further, as Wu De''an truly was not being honest. ... The employees, still in shock, moved all the skincare products back to the company. "That lady, quickly arrange to recall all the products that entered the channels and are ready for market." "Is there really a problem with the formula?" Su Qingqing knit her brows together, asking with skepticism. She was still a bit in disbelief. After all, this cream had undergone multiple tests without issues, and its effects were quite good. "There are indeed problems." Ye Huan puckered his lips, saying, "The primary two ingredients in this cream, ginseng would make the skin rosy, while Asparagus Ginseng would make the skin fair and beautiful, but these two ingredients inherently clash, causing severe harm to the human body later on." Su Qingqing shivered slightly, her voice wavering, "Wha... what harm..." Zhang Song laughed slightly, saying, "It causes blood blockage, difficulty breathing, in severe cases, skin ulceration, even life-threatening." "Ah? Th-that''s so serious?" Su Qingqing was shocked and frightened. "What, have you used it?" Ye Huan, filled with curiosity, asked. "I... I have used this skincare cream..." As soon as she finished speaking, Su Qingqing felt weak all over and slumped onto the floor. "Oh crap!" Ye Huan twitched the corner of his mouth, turned to look at Zhang Song, and hurriedly said, "Old man, you quickly call 120, I''m going to rescue her." "Got it!" Zhang Song dared not dawdle, took out his phone, and walked aside to dial. Su Qingqing''s neck and arms were showing a faint purplish hue, the difficulty in breathing made her face look very unpleasant, devoid of any color. The next second, her whole body convulsed. Ye Huan placed his hands on Su Qingqing''s chest, beginning to perform CPR. In an awkward coincidence, it pressed right on... Su Qingqing''s already purplish face turned a miraculous flush of shyness, filled with indignation! Her eyes almost spouted fire, wishing she could stab the jerk in front of her with a knife! "I... I will... I''ll kill you..." "I''m saving you!" "You... you wait... you dare not run..." Ye Huan squinted his eyes, "Talking like this is wasting your oxygen, soon no deity can save you..." "Even if I... have to die, I''ll... I''ll chop... chop you!" "Silence!" Ye Huan commanded harshly. "You..." Su Qingqing''s cold eyes suddenly felt something warm blocking her lips, her mind went blank. Ye Huan performed mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, continuously supplying oxygen to Su Qingqing... Sarch* The N??eFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Silently admiring in his heart. This woman''s lips are quite soft... While performing CPR, he continued compressing the heart, Su Qingqing''s vital signs gradually stabilized. "Master, I called for help!" Zhang Song said, turning around, then knowingly turned his head away. Soon, an ambulance arrived. But Su Qingqing had already passed out! Simply fainted from anger! Ask any chaste maiden, suddenly kissed by a man she just met recently, and pressed on the "heart," she''d probably go mad with rage! "Mr. Zhang, we are here!" Two nurses got off the ambulance carrying a stretcher, placing Su Qingqing onto it. On the ambulance, it clearly said: Celestial Sea City Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. "Old man, using these medicines on her should make her recover quickly." Ye Huan wrote a prescription and handed it to Zhang Song. Zhang Song took a look, his eyes gleaming: "Wonderful, wonderful! The toxicity from the clash of Asparagus Ginseng and ginseng, solved in such a way, marvelous!" "Enough marveling, go save the person." Ye Huan said casually. Zhang Song did not leave immediately but offered a fawning look, "Master, you''ve returned to Huaxia, we haven''t met for years, how about catching up, you teach me a few more tricks..." "Next time surely, rescuing the person is paramount, hurry and go." Zhang Song looked disappointed but still nodded. But just as he was about to get in the car, Ye Huan called to him... "I think, it''s better to teach you now!" Ye Huan said with seriousness, pulling out a paper, "Here are some small techniques for acupuncture..." Zhang Song beamed with joy, just about to take it... Ye Huan extended another hand. "Tuition fee... 500 yuan." Chapter 9: Su Qingqing’s Little Secret Chapter 9 - 9: Su Qingqing''s Little SecretAfter spending five hundred bucks on food and drink, Ye Huan picked up his work badge at the company''s front desk in the afternoon, then headed to the sales floor to report in. I have to admit, my wife''s company is impressive. The gender ratio is seriously unbalanced, typical of a place where women outnumber men, and every female employee is stunningly beautiful. You could even call it a paradise for men. "Hey, beautiful, can you tell me where the Sales Department manager''s office is?" "All the way at the end." The female employee said coldly, then rushed off frantically. Not just her, all employees seemed to be very busy, working at an extremely fast pace. When he reached the door at the end of the floor, Ye Huan was about to knock when he suddenly heard some extremely faint "weird sounds" coming from inside the office, causing his expression to change slightly. What the heck are these weird sounds coming from the office? Could it be that the Sales Department manager is doing something shady inside? Damn! Corruption! Immorality! Doing this in broad daylight, aren''t they afraid of being caught? So arrogant. That won''t do, this is my wife''s company. I have to clean out these rotten apples that corrupt the company''s morals! "Bang!" Ye Huan decisively turned the doorknob and pushed the door open. Unexpectedly, the office was empty. So where were those sounds coming from? Ye Huan closed the office door and walked over to take a look, his gaze fixed on the computer screen on the desk. Oh boy! The computer was playing the latest Japanese film. "Shameful!" Ye Huan cursed, then grabbed a nearby chair and started to operate... No, he started watching the computer. ... Tianyun International, President''s office. "Right, that''s the current situation. MeiYing must halt its market launch, and we need to have those who participated in the product test receive treatment from Miracle Doctor Zhang Song," Su Qingqing revealed everything that happened in the morning with a serious expression. Liu Tianyun and Tang Yao both furrowed their brows, looking grim. The MeiYing series is currently Tianyun International''s most heavily invested product, originally slated to launch tomorrow. The company has already spent tens of millions on a comprehensive advertising campaign. If they abruptly cancel the launch, there will be strong backlash from suppliers, raw materials vendors, and sales channels. But there is no choice. If they don''t halt the launch and more people suffer skin damage, Tianyun International could face ruin. "Okay, we''ll collect the products from our channels. You should head back now," Liu Tianyun sighed reluctantly. Su Qingqing nodded, got up, and left. "Wait a moment." Tang Yao called out to Su Qingqing, then went out with her. "Qingqing, you look so pale. Are you sure everything''s fine?" Tang Yao asked, worried. Su Qingqing smiled and shook her head: "Dr. Zhang personally treated me. After drinking a bowl of medicine, I recovered. I just need two days of rest and I''ll be fine." "That''s good!" Tang Yao breathed a sigh of relief, then changed the subject, "By the way, Qingqing, do me a favor. There''s a new guy in the sales department today. Give him a hard time for me, and make sure he fails the three-million-yuan performance target!" Su Qingqing was momentarily stunned and looked amused: "Oh, little Yao Yao, you''re actually targeting a man? Did he deceive your feelings or your body?" "No such thing, stop talking nonsense!" Tang Yao blushed, "But that guy was so cheeky with me. I have to see him fail to meet his targets and willingly clean toilets to soothe my anger!" "Cheeky?" Su Qingqing''s face immediately filled with anger: "Don''t worry, your girl here is the sales department manager. I will make sure he pays the price!" With that, Su Qingqing stomped into the elevator furiously. The incident from the morning where she was suddenly kissed and her "heart" was pressed flashed in Su Qingqing''s mind, leaving her fuming. She had never even had a boyfriend, and now she''d been taken advantage of by a guy whose name she didn''t even know? Not only was her first kiss gone, but she was assaulted too! If she ever saw him again, she''d surely flay him alive! Su Qingqing was raging as she walked, causing employees to dodge her out of fear. When she reached the office door and noticed that the doorknob had been turned, her face suddenly changed. She remembered leaving in a rush that morning, leaving the computer playing... Oh no! "Who, who entered my office?" Su Qingqing loudly questioned the employees in the office area. "Re... reporting to the manager, a new employee went in and hasn''t come out yet..." A female employee said timidly. He hasn''t come out? Then wouldn''t he have discovered all her little secrets? If he spread it out, how could she face anyone? Sear?h the novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Su Qingqing''s expression changed slightly. She opened the office door and quickly closed it again. "Bang!" "Who dared to trespass in my office?" Su Qingqing shouted angrily. "Who are you, not even knocking before coming in?" Ye Huan raised an eyebrow. Then they exchanged looks and were both stunned. "You are... the beautiful lady from this morning?" "Oh, you!" Su Qingqing sneered coldly, casually locking the office door, "There''s a road to heaven and you don''t take it, yet you come knocking on my door? I was worried about not finding you, not knowing where to get you!" Ye Huan''s face darkened: "Miss, I saved you this morning. If it weren''t for me, you''d have long been reporting to King Yama." "Did I ask you to save me? You''re just meddling because you''re full of yourself!" "How can you be so unreasonable..." "You took my first kiss and you still want me to be reasonable?" Su Qingqing slammed her fist onto the desk, making a loud noise. Then... "Hiss!" Su Qingqing clutched her pink fist, inhaling sharply, and stomped her foot in pain. Ye Huan was speechless, seriously doubting that this woman had a low IQ! "Go to hell, I''ll beat you to death!" Su Qingqing shouted angrily, kicking Ye Huan. But she was wearing high heels and lost control of her strength, causing imbalance, and her body tilted forward. "Is this... what they call hitting yourself?" Ye Huan''s mouth twitched, but he quickly got up, catching her with a speed faster than blinking. "Dare to harass me further? I''ll kill you!" Su Qingqing, extremely embarrassed and angry, pushed forward with her body. "Bang!" Ye Huan fell on his butt, and Su Qingqing pushed him down onto the floor with her hands. "Trying to best me? See how powerful I am now?" Su Qingqing looked triumphant. "Miss, can I ask you a question?" Ye Huan asked seriously. Su Qingqing paused and asked suspiciously: "What question?" "Your IQ..." Before Ye Huan could finish, Su Qingqing angrily used her left hand to cover his mouth, and her right hand kept hitting Ye Huan. But just then... "Knock, knock, knock." After a few knocks on the door, it opened. "Manager, I came to report..." as the man stepped into the office, his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. What''s going on here!? The speakers beside the computer were producing those sounds... And the two of them in this position, could it be... Chapter 10: Sales Metrics Chapter 10 - 10: Sales Metrics"Zhao Yongle?" Su Qingqing''s expression was indifferent as she sternly shouted, "I don''t have time to listen to work reports right now, get out!" Zhao Yongle''s mouth twitched slightly, his eyes filled with anger as he looked at Ye Huan. He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down after a while, his face full of rage as he retreated and slammed the office door shut. He had been pursuing Su Qingqing for a long time without any success, and he never thought he would see such a scene. He was furious but didn''t dare to act out because Su Qingqing was the head of the sales department, and he was just the leader of a small sales team! No time to hear reports, but has time to find excitement with that man in the office? Despicable! "And that kid! You''re new here and dare to steal my woman; I''ll make you understand the consequences!" Zhao Yongle clenched his fists, burning with anger! ... "Beauty, can you get up?" "No way!" Su Qingqing crossed her arms, looking down at Ye Huan with a smug face, "Doesn''t feel good to be pressed down by me, right? Is your ego severely bruised?" "Not feeling good?" Ye Huan''s lips curled up, he spoke meaningfully, "Beauty, you like watching that kind of thing, so you must know a lot about it too, aren''t you embarrassed now..." Su Qingqing was startled, her face turned so red it could drip blood. Her little secret was indeed discovered by him, damn it! No, wait... Suddenly, a light bulb went off in her head. "Oh, you!" Su Qingqing was the first to strike back, snorting coldly, "If you hadn''t mentioned it, I wouldn''t have known you were using my work computer to play that kind of movie?" Ye Huan''s face darkened, "Beauty, you''re falsely accusing me, you could get executed for this!" "What do you mean falsely accuse? I''m a dignified head of a major department, would I watch such lewd stuff?" Su Qingqing spoke clearly and forcefully. After speaking, seeing Ye Huan not reacting, she once again looked down at him with superiority. Noticing Ye Huan''s face was full of comfort... "Go to hell!" Su Qingqing shouted with a face full of shame and anger, got up and directly kicked towards Huan''s crotch! "Whoa!" Ye Huan''s eyes suddenly widened, quickly dodging away. The crotch kick missed, and Su Qingqing gritted her teeth again. Brother Huan was almost pissed off; if he had reacted slower, this man would certainly no longer be a man. But it''s better to reconcile with this woman now; after all, she seems to be the head of the sales department, and he''ll be working under her in the future. "Stop messing around." Ye Huan spread his hands helplessly, "I was also having my first kiss this morning, and it was really to save you, I had no choice." "You... your first kiss too?" Su Qingqing looked suspicious, but her heart inexplicably felt a lot better. His first kiss too, doesn''t that cancel things out? But is such a thing really just cancelable, why does it feel a bit weird? "As for what''s on your computer, I''ll pretend I didn''t see it, and we''ll call it even, okay?" Ye Huan sat back in the chair, moved the mouse to close the explicit video. "Who knows if you have a loose mouth." Su Qingqing looked displeased, sitting on the sofa next to him. Ye Huan''s lips curved up, "Are you admitting? That those videos on the computer were downloaded by you?" "Are you tricking me?" Su Qingqing raised an eyebrow. "Well, my lips are sealed, you can relax." Ye Huan''s gaze was firm as he handed over his employee badge, "Besides, I will be your employee from now on, daring to spill your secret would be suicidal, wouldn''t it?" Su Qingqing took the badge and looked at it, her face turning cold again, "Ye Huan? You''re the new employee joining?" "Yes." Getting confirmation, Su Qingqing sneered. As expected, this guy is an ultimate pervert! Not only did he take liberties with herself, but also with Tang Yao. "I''m the head of the sales departmentSu Qingqing." Su Qingqing said coldly, "Joining the sales department, you must achieve a sales target of 10 million within a week, otherwise you''ll be automatically transferred to a department with vacancies a week later. I heard the cleaning department is one short on janitors, if you don''t meet your target, you''ll go there." "10 million? Wasn''t it 3 million?" Ye Huan was puzzled. "Am I the head or are you? I say how much it is." Su Qingqing tossed back the badge, "10 million in a week, if you think you can''t do it, just leave." Leave? That''s impossible, haven''t even gotten the wife yet! Forget it, compared to a wife, 10 million is nothing. Ye Huan took back the badge, his head full of black lines. "Come with me, I''ll introduce you to your colleagues." Su Qingqing said indifferently, got up and headed out the door. This 10 million is definitely a retaliatory strike. Though quite displeased, Brother Huan still thought of the bigger picture, swallowed his pride, and followed her out. "Clap. Clap. Clap." Su Qingqing''s prestige was evidently high, with just a clap of her hands, the previously noisy office hall instantly became very quiet, and the employees all stopped their work and turned their heads to look. "Everyone, pause your work for a moment, I have an announcement." Su Qingqing stepped aside, pointing at Ye Huan, "After several months, our sales department welcomes a new employee, this is the new addition to our sales department, Ye Huan." All employees started clapping. But among them, it didn''t include Zhao Yongle with his cold gaze... "Our sales department hasn''t had anyone resign for months, so no sales team is short of staff. Does any team leader volunteer to take this new colleague?" "I''ll take him!" Zhao Yongle stepped forward, extending his hand, "Ye Huan, right? I''m the leader of sales group threeZhao Yongle, pleased to work with you." His tone was calm, but his gaze was fierce. Ye Huan naturally saw the ill intent, a barely noticeable curve appeared on his mouth, and he shook hands with Zhao Yongle. sea??h th n?vel_Fire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Sure enough, as soon as they shook hands, Zhao Yongle exerted force suddenly. "Zhao Yongle, you said you''re willing to take him?" Su Qingqing asked coldly. The next second, Zhao Yongle didn''t answer, but suddenly let out a wail, quickly retracting his hand, shaking his painful palm, clearly at a loss. This guy indeed has some skills, no wonder he could win over Su Qingqing! However, as long as he fails to meet the sales target, he has to get out! By then, even if Su Qingqing is the head, she can''t intervene in this matter! This is the company''s rule, no exceptions in the sales department! "Kid, you won''t get by under me without doing real work." Zhao Yongle said with a gloomy face, "Come with me!" Ye Huan chuckled lightly, seeing through Zhao Yongle''s impure motives, but didn''t care. If Zhao Yongle was tired of living, Brother Huan wouldn''t mind teaching him a lesson. Arriving at the office area of group three, a female employee stood up with a smile. "Ye Huan, hello, I''m glad to work with you." The female employee smiled warmly. But there was another woman, sitting in her seat without any intention to greet. "Hello." Ye Huan smiled, shaking hands with this friendly female employee. Unlike this female employee''s friendliness. Team leader Zhao Yongle brought over a folder, directly threw it onto Ye Huan''s desk, and said coldly. "Complete this sales task within a week, or leave Tianyun International!" ``` Chapter 11: The Impossible Task Chapter 11 - 11: The Impossible TaskOn the folder, there was an S written with a black pen! S-grade sales task! "Minister, this isn''t according to the rules." The female employee frowned slightly and said, "Colleague Ye Huan just joined; logically, he should at most be given a B-grade task to try his hand." "My words are the rules in this group!" Zhao Yongle said with a cold face, not a hint of negotiation in his tone: "This order requires completing a sales project worth three million, and if not completed within a week, he''ll be fired immediately." Ye Huan picked up the folder and took a look, then sat nonchalantly at his desk. Zhao Yongle smirked and walked back to his private office with a condescending look. He chuckled coldly in his heart. A three million order isn''t something a sales newbie can complete. Ye Huan absolutely cannot complete this order. When the time comes to kick him out of the group, he must leave the company. Even if Su Qingqing is the minister, she will be powerless. Not meeting sales targets directly leads to dismissal or transfer; this has been the rule set by Tianyun International''s sales department since its inception. No exceptions! ... The female employee thoughtfully escorted Ye Huan to his workstation. "Xiao Ye, I''m Zhang Huimin, just call me Sister Zhang." The female employee said with a smile. "Alright, thank you, Sister Zhang." Ye Huan smiled and nodded. He and Zhang Huimin sat next to each other, only an arm''s length apart. Zhang Huimin glanced around and quietly asked, "Xiao Ye, did you offend Zhao Yongle? Otherwise, he wouldn''t trouble you like this." "Offend? Not really..." Ye Huan shrugged helplessly. "He''s petty, it has nothing to do with me." Sear?h the ovelFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Heh!" A sneering voice of yin and yang came from the woman who had been silent, "Offending Group Leader Zhao, and speaking ill about him behind his back, truly incorrigible." Her thick makeup was heavier than wall plaster, and the strong perfume on her was quite pungent. "Fang Hong, what do you mean by that?" Zhang Huimin frowned. "What do I mean?" Fang Hong looked disdainful, "Zhang Huimin, you''d better mind your own business. You''re about to be fired yourself, still got time to care for him?" Zhang Huimin''s expression changed slightly, looking a bit ugly but she didn''t retort. "Lady, I wouldn''t have noticed you if you hadn''t spoken." Ye Huan pinched his nose, waved his hand in disgust, "That smell on you is too strong, did you sleep in a pigsty last night?" "Pigsty? What do you mean!" Fang Hong was furious but didn''t explode. She sneered, "About to be fired, yet still dare to provoke me? Reckless!" Ye Huan looked ''puzzled'', "Fired? Who said I''d be fired?" Fang Hong chuckled with disdain, "Are you saying you can complete this three-million S-grade sales task?" "Three million, no big deal." Ye Huan shrugged, looking indifferent. But as soon as he finished speaking, Fang Hong couldn''t help but laugh out loud. "Three million, no big deal? Haha!" Fang Hong''s laughter was sharp and uncomfortable. Beside her, Zhang Huimin showed disgust, yet she was extremely unsettled inside. As a senior employee of Sales Group Three, she naturally understood what an S-grade task signified. A newly hired employee could at most complete a B-grade task; an A-grade requires some sales tactics and skills. As for S-grade, those were typically tasks only team leaders could complete, requiring ample sales experience and network, otherwise no chance at all! A newbie getting an S-grade right away isn''t hell difficulty; it''s nightmare plus hell difficulty, an impossible task! As someone who''s been through it, Zhang Huimin naturally knew the difficulty of entering Tianyun International. Ye Huan getting in so young must have taken a lot of effort; getting fired would be such a pity. Thinking about this, Zhang Huimin felt it was necessary to advise Ye Huan. "Xiao Ye, Zhao Yongle is despicable, but he''s not someone ordinary employees can afford to offend." Zhang Huimin sighed helplessly, "You''d better find a chance to apologize to him; the difficulty of the S-grade sales task is too high, I''m sure this job is hard-earned for you, no need to hit a dead end with him. Most importantly, he has people above him in the company..." Before she could finish. "Not only does he need to apologize to Group Leader Zhao, but he also needs to apologize to me." Fang Hong snapped, standing at Ye Huan''s desk, smugly raising her toes, "If you can clean my shoes, maybe you''ll get a chance to reform." "Fang Hong, I suggest you take off your shoes and rub them on your face." Ye Huan mocked, "The powder on your face is so thick, wouldn''t it be perfect for shoe polishing?" "You..." Fang Hong was infuriated, gritting her teeth, "Ye Huan, you really are hopeless!" With that said, Fang Hong left with a scowl, angrily heading towards Zhao Yongle''s office. Watching Fang Hong leave, Zhang Huimin sighed. "Xiao Ye, Fang Hong is Zhao Yongle''s lover, she''s definitely going to report you. You''ve thoroughly offended Zhao Yongle now." "Sister Zhang, are you concerned about me?" Ye Huan teased. Zhang Huimin rolled her eyes, "You getting into Tianyun International surely wasn''t easy, I just feel sorry for you." "Sister Zhang, you''re overthinking. This task isn''t difficult, I can handle it well. But you, what was that woman saying about you getting fired?" Ye Huan asked, curious. "Sigh, Zhao Yongle hinted several times about having his way with me, once he even tried to... but I escaped and slapped him, so he''s been making things hard for me." Zhang Huimin sighed deeply. "Then why didn''t you report it to the police or the company?" "I reported it, but the office has no surveillance, no evidence, and the only witness, Fang Hong, insisted I made a false report. In the end, the police couldn''t do anything. As for reporting to the company''s higher-ups? Never considered it, because he has people above him." Ye Huan frowned; Zhao Yongle really was scum, surely many female employees had been harassed by him. This sort of thing, he''s definitely not the only one doing it. Looks like there are quite a few worms in my wife''s company... "Sister Zhang, how is he making things difficult for you?" Ye Huan asked. "Here, this." Zhang Huimin handed him a folder. "Ten million, SSS-grade sales task?" Ye Huan looked at the document, a little surprised. "Yeah, so this is a hurdle I can''t pass, just waiting to be fired." Zhang Huimin propped her chin up, looking helpless. "Sister Zhang, don''t worry." Ye Huan smiled, "You won''t get fired, neither will I. I''ll handle your contract for you." "You will?" Zhang Huimin was stunned, her eyebrows furrowed slightly. "Don''t worry, I''ll complete both sales tasks." Ye Huan smiled calmly. Zhang Huimin shrugged it off with a smile. A newbie completing S+SSS-grade tasks? Impossible! Even if the sales department minister stepped in, completing these two tasks together would take a long time, and there''s a high chance of failure. As for not being fired... That''s simply impossible. Sales tasks are just an excuse. If Zhao Yongle wants to fire someone, he has ten thousand ways! After all, Zhao Yongle''s uncle is the head of HR, the one who controls every employee''s fate at Tianyun International! Chapter 12: Betting Chapter 12 - 12: Betting"Brother Zhao, just contact your uncle and have him fire Ye Huan." Luckily, Brother Huan isn''t here; otherwise, he''d definitely be disgusted to the point of bleeding by Fang Hong''s heavy makeup yet pretending-to-be-cute look. Zhao Yongle sighed and said, "It''s not that I don''t want to help you, but I can''t just trouble my uncle with everything, you know? Anyway, he definitely won''t complete the task, just let him hang around for another week." Fang Hong snorted coldly and turned her head away, angry. "Alright, I''m meeting a big client in the coming days." Zhao Yongle''s lips curled up into a wicked smile, "If I can sign this client, I''ll definitely get promoted to Deputy Director of Sales. By then, the leader of Team Three will be yours..." Fang Hong''s eyes lit up, her face brimming with joy: "Thank you, Brother Zhao!" "So, how are you going to thank me?" Zhao Yongle said with a meaningful tone. "You know, Team Leader Zhao~" Fang Hong raised her eyebrows, giving Zhao Yongle a look that said "you know." Zhao Yongle nodded in satisfaction, then sneered in his heart: "Su Qingqing, wait until I become the Deputy Director, and then I''ll maneuver a bit..." "Hmph, one day, I''ll make you cry and sing ''Conquer''!" ... "Truly shameless!" Seeing Fang Hong coming out of Zhao Yongle''s office with a radiant face, Zhang Huimin spat out in shame and anger. Being a member of Team Three as well, Zhang Huimin naturally knew about those dirty dealings between Fang Hong and Zhao Yongle. "Heh, you''re just jealous." Fang Hong sat back in her office chair, looking smug, "Zhang Huimin, just so you know, let me inform you. Team Leader Zhao is negotiating a big business deal, and he''s about to be promoted to Deputy Director of the Sales Department. And as for me, I''m about to become the leader of Sales Team Three. Jealous much?" "None of my damn business." "Oh right, it indeed has nothing to do with someone who''s about to get fired." Fang Hong laughed heartily. "You..." Zhang Huimin was furious. "Sister Zhang, don''t bother stooping to their level." Ye Huan spoke reassuringly and then said, "Besides, didn''t I say? None of us will get fired." "Not get fired?" Fang Hong''s lips curled with mockery: "Zhang Huimin has an SSS-level task, you have an S-level task, and you still think you won''t get fired?" "Then, how about a bet?" Ye Huan said with a playful look. "What kind of bet?" "If I complete both tasks today, you''ll lick my shoes clean and crawl out of here." Ye Huan said. "Complete both tasks today?" Fang Hong was taken aback, purposefully making her voice louder, so loud that the entire sales department could hear: "You said you could complete both SSS-level and S-level sales tasks today?" "Piece of cake." Ye Huan shrugged. "Fine, then it''s a bet!" Fang Hong face full of disdain, "If you lose, you''ll bite on my shoe and crawl outside the company, barking for half an hour!" Zhang Huimin''s face changed slightly, tugging on Ye Huan''s sleeve, hinting him not to be impulsive. But Brother Huan didn''t care. "Even if the conditions aren''t quite equal, I''ll still take it." Ye Huan snapped his fingers, agreeing. These words instantly stirred up a storm among the crowd. "Did... did that guy say he could complete SSS-level + S-level tasks today?" "Is this for real, bragging without blinking, huh?" "I don''t think it''s bragging, more like he has ulterior motives. Maybe he has a fetish like liking to bite women''s shoes?" "I think it''s possible!" Everyone burst out laughing, making Fang Hong''s face even more smug. "Let me add to this!" Zhao Yongle came out of the office, hands in pockets, speaking to Ye Huan: "If you complete these two tasks by the end of the day, I''ll call you ''grandpa'' three times! If you don''t complete them, the reverse will apply!" "With Team Leader Zhao having such interests, I naturally have to agree." Ye Huan had a meaningful look. "Clown." Zhao Yongle snorted coldly and strode back to the office. Meanwhile, Su Qingqing also heard the commotion and, through the door gap, saw the entire process, her brow slightly furrowing as she shook her head. Could this pretty boy be lacking in intelligence? SSS-level + S-level tasks aren''t child''s play! She felt discomfort in her heart; after all, her first kiss had been taken by his lips. If he bit on another woman''s shoes and paraded around, wouldn''t that mean she indirectly kissed that woman''s shoes? Disgusting! Thinking of this, she returned to her desk, turned off the movie playing on her computer, and called the CEO''s office, explaining the situation. ... Liu Tianyun received the news, a hint of dissatisfaction flickered in her beautiful eyes. Her "weird husband," on his first day at the company, could stir up such a fuss? Claiming he could complete SSS-level + S-level tasks within a day? Even betting, if he loses, he''d call someone ''grandfather'' and bite shoes at the company gate while barking? "CEO, about this..." Tang Yao looked embarrassed. The CEO''s fianc biting a female employee''s shoe and barking that can''t possibly be justified... Sear?h the novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Later, go down and transfer him to the cleaning department before he makes a fool of himself!" Liu Tianyun''s face was ice-cold as she spoke coldly. She couldn''t afford to lose face! Neither could the Liu Family! Tang Yao nodded, got up, and left the CEO''s office. ... "Xiao Ye, what are you doing?" Zhang Huimin was extremely anxious, "How could you make such a bet?" "Someone wants to call me ''grandfather,'' wants to lick my shoes, shouldn''t I satisfy them?" Ye Huan said, casually. "You... you''re unreasonable!" Zhang Huimin was so anxious she was stomping her feet, yet she was helpless. Ye Huan knew Zhang Huimin was worried about him, and he was slightly moved, saying, "Sister Zhang, don''t worry, I can handle this." Having said that, Ye Huan took out his phone and made a call. Zhang Huimin wanted to persuade Ye Huan to just resign, but upon seeing the determination in his eyes, she sighed. These two tasks aren''t something that can be resolved with just a phone call. Meanwhile, in a luxurious ocean-view villa far across the ocean in America. The Finske family conglomerate was having their quarterly family meeting, hundreds of people sitting in the villa''s living room, listening to the Patriarch''s work arrangements for the next quarter. Suddenly, the phone rang. Sitting at the head, the patriarch in gold-rimmed glassesStephen Finskewas about to hang up when he saw the caller ID and jumped up, drawing a cross over his chest with his left hand before answering. "Oh my God! Mr. Ye, why are you calling me?" The family members below were startled by Stephen''s reaction. Who on the other end of the line could make the Patriarch so respectful? "I need your help with something. I''ll give you an account number now. Install the Huaxia V-chat APP on your phone and add me there." Ye Huan gave him the account number, then hung up. "Quick, quick! Who has a phone with V-chat?" Stephen urgently asked, "Or who can download it? Be quick!" Soon, Stephen got a phone with V-chat installed and quickly added Ye Huan. Once verified, Stephen saw a message from V-chat. "Two contracts, the numbers are... The total quote is 13 million. Transfer this to Celestial Sea City Tianyun International''s account by 5 PM Huaxia time." Stephen quickly handed over the phone, instructing, "Family meeting paused! Someone, buy these two contracts within two hours!" At this point, a junior from the Finske Asia branch said, "Patriarch, we''re already discussing cooperation with Tianyun International..." "Cancel it, use 20 million, and buy the products from these two contracts at a price 7 million higher!" Chapter 13: I’m in a hurry, go ahead and shout. Chapter 13 - 13: I''m in a hurry, go ahead and shout."Putting on a show!" Fang Hong crossed her arms with a look of disdain. Making a call in Huaxia''s language and asking the other party to install Huaxia''s WeChat? Is he afraid the other side doesn''t know it''s Huaxia''s software? It''s contradictory, pretending to be something he''s not, it''s laughable! Soon, it was 4:50 PM, just ten minutes before Tianyun International''s quitting time. Zhao Yongle, with his hands in his pockets, walked out of the office and gestured grandly. Fang Hong nodded understandingly and brought over a chair for him to sit. "Brother Ye Huan, have you finished those two contracts yet?" Zhao Yongle sat in the chair with a mocking expression. "Almost done, what''s the rush." Ye Huan smirked, "I''m just wondering if Team Leader Zhao is ready to call me grandfather?" "Ridiculous!" Zhao Yongle angrily pointed at Ye Huan: "Call you grandfather? You wish? You really think you can just sit there and have money handed over to you? If you''re so impressive, why aren''t you up in the sky?" "I''m too impressive, heaven can''t tolerate me." Ye Huan said seriously, making many employees burst out laughing. To them, Ye Huan''s behavior was no different from "feeding himself to the wolves." Completing an SSS-grade + S-grade sales task, is it something you can just say and do? With ten minutes until quitting time, the employees showed no signs of leaving, all eagerly anticipating this upcoming drama! "Xiao Ye, you still have time to leave now..." Zhang Huimin frowned and quietly reminded. Ye Huan smiled and said nothing. He trusted in the efficiency of the Finske family. ... "That silly wolf, how can he be so stupid!" Tang Yao was so anxious she stomped her feet, pacing back and forth in Su Qingqing''s office. Only two minutes left before he has to fulfill the bet, and he''s still acting indifferent? He''s about to ruin the president''s reputation, and he doesn''t care, how infuriating! "Yao Yao, why are you so anxious, do you perhaps have special feelings for him..." Su Qingqing asked playfully. "Nonsense!" Tang Yao gritted her teeth and said, "I''m going to handle this!" Su Qingqing looked skeptical, seriously suspecting that Tang Yao and Ye Huan had some "unspeakable secrets." Tang Yao stormed out of the director''s office. As soon as she emerged, she drew a lot of attention. "Hello, Secretary Tang." The employees respectfully greeted her. Even Zhao Yongle stood up respectfully, but his peripheral gaze remained fixed on Tang Yao, his lips involuntarily curling into a lecherous grin. In the next moment, they were all dumbfounded. "Come with me!" Tang Yao grabbed Ye Huan''s arm, as if to pull him away. Zhao Yongle''s pupils constricted, Secretary Tang taking Ye Huan away was clearly helping him out of a jam. Could it be that this guy Ye Huan knows Secretary Tang, and that''s why he''s so confident? What a powerful backer... "Old..." Ye Huan was about to call her wifey but stopped, as Tang Yao''s expression didn''t look good. "You don''t belong to the sales department anymore, go to the cleaning department and clean the toilets!" Tang Yao scolded harshly. S~ea??h the n??el Fire.nt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "What the hell, why!" "No why, my words are orders, come with me!" "I''m not going!" With one minute left until five o''clock, the time to fulfill the bet. Tang Yao was extremely anxious: "Why, hurry up!" "Negotiating cleaning toilets later, I need to make them fulfill their bet now, walking away would benefit them, wouldn''t it?" Ye Huan crossed his legs and spread his hands. "Come with me." Tang Yao, exasperated, held onto Ye Huan tightly, but couldn''t budge him an inch! "Secretary Tang, that''s not right!" Zhao Yongle quickly said: "Ye Huan made a grand declaration to complete the SSS-grade + S-grade tasks before quitting time, and now you''re taking him away, won''t that make him break his promise? How can he still mix with the company, even if he goes to clean the toilets, his department colleagues will despise him!" He was secretly delighted! Even with Secretary Tang bailing him out, Ye Huan still wouldn''t leave, such low intelligence! "Did you hear that, a man''s words and actions are tied to respect," Ye Huan said seriously, "I''m ready to take Team Leader Zhao as my grandson." Zhao Yongle''s mouth twitched in anger, but he said nothing, instead snorting coldly with a laugh. Thirty seconds left and this guy''s practically done for! Tang Yao''s anxiety reached new heights! If Ye Huan doesn''t leave, the president will definitely go mad. "I said I could complete these two tasks with ease." Ye Huan casually tore the documents from the table into scraps. As the scraps of paper fluttered to the ground, only ten seconds remained to five o''clock. Zhao Yongle and Fang Hong could hardly hide their smiles. Countdown at seven seconds... Fang Hong was even considering which shoe Ye Huan would have to hold in his mouth. Five seconds... Their smiles grew even wider. Three seconds... Tang Yao was sweating and still used all her strength, trying to drag Ye Huan out, but she couldn''t succeed. One second... "Hahaha!" Zhao Yongle and Fang Hong burst into laughter. "Clang!" Five o''clock struck. Just as they were about to mock him, something unexpected happened. "Who''s Ye Huan, your bonus voucher has arrived!" The finance woman ran in looking shocked, freezing the smiles on Zhao Yongle and Fang Hong''s faces. "Who''s Ye Huan?" "That''s me." Ye Huan smiled and stood up from his seat. "Congratulations on successfully negotiating the sale of the SSS-grade million-dollar task number 013, and the S-grade three-million task number 089." The finance woman suppressed her shock, handing over two small slips: "These... these are the rewards for completing the tasks, which are bonus vouchers, please collect them on the 15th of next month from the finance department." "Impossible... this is impossible..." Zhao Yongle''s lips quivered, his eyes vacantly sitting on the ground, repeating the phrase. Achieving the SSS-grade + S-grade task, he completed it before finishing work? How is that possible! There''s deception! There''s a problem, yes! There must be an issue! "There must be something wrong, did the other side even make the payment yet?" Zhao Yongle got up, grabbing the finance woman''s shoulders and shaking her hard. "They... they did!" The finance woman gasped in pain, breaking free coldly, "The payment has been made in full, totaling twenty million!" "Twenty million?" Zhao Yongle laughed, "I said there was a mistake, these two tasks only total thirteen million." "There is no mistake, the two tasks indeed total thirteen million, but the Finske Asia subsidiaries paid twenty million, saying the extra seven million is a gift to celebrate Mr. Ye Huan joining Tianyun International. Alright, that''s all, I''ll be going now!" The finance woman rubbed her shoulders, irritated by Zhao Yongle''s behavior, and turned to leave with a cold snort. She was also shocked, having worked at Tianyun International for many years, it was the first time she saw someone completing both SSS-grade and S-grade sales tasks, and the other party even overpaid seven million, simply incredible! "Team Leader Zhao? What are you standing there for, call out?" Ye Huan smirked, mocking, "Surely as a team leader, you wouldn''t try to shirk responsibility?" "No... impossible!" Zhao Yongle ignored Ye Huan, his hands shaking as he pulled out his phone and dialed a number, "Hello, is this the president of Finske Group''s Asia Division? This is Zhao Yongle..." "We have already ordered Tianyun International''s goods and will not be working with you for now." Before he''d even finished speaking, the line went dead. Zhao Yongle stood frozen, the phone slipping from his hand and falling to the floor. The big client he was supposed to meet over the next few days was the Finske Group! Yet they signed a contract with Ye Huan and said they wouldn''t cooperate with him for now? Isn''t it over? Doesn''t this mean he lost the big client he had been dreaming of? And the opportunity to be promoted to deputy head of sales? Two years of effort for this golden opportunity, lost? The chance to be promoted to deputy and then suppress Su Qingqing to ascend to head of sales, gone? Zhao Yongle''s eyes were blank, subconsciously stepping back, unable to accept this reality. "Team Leader Zhao, could you hurry up?" Ye Huan said impatiently, "I''m on a schedule, please go ahead and shout." Chapter 14: A Word of Caution Chapter 14: Chapter 14: A Word of CautionYes, Finske canceled the cooperation with us because they started working with Ye Huan! Its him who interrupted my path to promotion! Zhao Yongle was furious, grabbing Ye Huan by the collar with both hands, his face seething with anger. "Ye Huan, Ill never forgive you!!!" "First, you should fulfill your promise and call me grandpa; second, youre not qualified to hold a grudge against me. Also..." Ye Huan shrugged and said, "I dont like people grabbing my collar, so think twice." "Think twice? You dare steal my client, Ill kill you..." Before Zhao Yongle could finish, he was slapped to the ground, completely bewildered. The crisp sound of the slap brought everyone out of their shock, making them shiver. "Gulp!" The employees of the sales department gulped twice in disbelief, completely stunned. This person completed an SSS-level and an S-level sales task on his first day? This has broken the record of Tianyun Internationals sales department since its establishment, an achievement no one could surpass! They finally realized how clownish and ridiculous their ridicule of him just now was! All the employees lowered their heads in shame, no one dared to look directly at Ye Huan anymore. "Ye... Ye Huan, you... you finished both tasks?" Tang Yao asked in disbelief, her voice trembling. "Of course, Im amazing, right?" Ye Huan said seriously, "Come on, if you cant control yourself, I might allow you to give me a kiss." "No way!" Tang Yao cursed, her face full of embarrassment, but she was still deeply shocked! At the same time, she was very angry. Ye Huan actually completed a 20 million sales volume in one go? And on the first day? Doesnt this mean the 3 million sales target she set for him has been smashed, and he doesnt need to clean the toilets anymore? Tang Yao gritted her teeth. At this time, Zhao Yongle also came to his senses, his expression extremely gloomy: "Ye Huan, how dare you hit me..." "Call." Ye Huan smirked, looking down at Zhao Yongle from a height. Zhao Yongle trembled with rage. But the employees heard the bet clearly, and if he goes back on it now, the entire sales department would surely look down on him. Sarch* The N??eFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. But calling him grandpa would be a huge embarrassment! "Team Leader Zhao, you cant cheat like that, theres a good old saying in Huaxia, if you cheat, your children will be born with no..." "Grandpa!" Zhao Yongle interrupted Ye Huan, softly spitting out the words. He almost coughed up blood in anger, shouting it out. No matter what, children shouldnt be born without those! "Huh?" Ye Huan scratched his ear, looking puzzled, "What did you say? I didnt hear clearly." "Grand... Grandpa." "Louder, didnt you eat?" Ye Huan said displeased. "Ive already called twice." Zhao Yongle said with a dark expression. Ye Huan looked contemptuously: "Team Leader Zhao, if you want to cheat, just say it straight, at worst, your children will be born without..." "Grandpa!" Furious, Zhao Yongle shouted directly. "Ah, good boy, truly my grandson." Ye Huan said with a smile, which made Zhao Yongle even more infuriated. His calling grandpa was loud enough for everyone to hear clearly, but they held back their laughter. "Hey, hey, hey, what do you think youre doing!" Ye Huan shouted, stopping Fang Hong, who was lifting her foot, ready to sneak away. Fang Hong shivered, feeling a chill down her spine. "Fang Hong, Tianyun International doesnt want untrustworthy employees, are you trying to escape? Let me tell you, Secretary Tang is here today, shes the witness of our bet. If you dont honor it, shell fire you! Secretary Tang, isnt that right?" "Uh... right." Tang Yao said lightly, "Every employee of Tianyun International must be honest and trustworthy." "I... I didnt..." Fang Hong was on the verge of tears. "Didnt what, so many people heard you agreed to the bet." Ye Huan sat in the chair, closed his eyes and lifted his toe, "The shoe is here, either lick it or get out of Tianyun International!" The whole room was silent, all eyes on Fang Hong. Fang Hong was torn inside, looking extremely distressed. If she licked the shoe, shed surely be the laughing stock. But if she didnt, shed be fired... No, she couldnt be fired, the benefits at Tianyun International are so good, and shes about to be promoted with Zhao Yongle! With this thought, Fang Hong made up her mind, knelt down, grabbed Ye Huans shoe, and stuck out her tongue to lick it. "Click!" The sound of a camera shutter startled Fang Hong. She looked up, suddenly furious: "What are you doing!" "Taking a photo, of course." Ye Huan smiled, kicking out with his foot. "Bang!" Fang Hong was knocked to the ground, a dark shoe print on her face. "Seriously, my shoe was really clean before, and you licked it dirty, disgusting!" Ye Huan scolded with displeasure. Fang Hong was furious, pointing at Ye Huan in anger: "You... you... I want to fire..." "Fire what? Are you going to fire us?" Ye Huan smirked, "Let me tell you, the task has been completed, both Sister Zhang and I can stay in the company, arent you just seething?" How could she not be furious! Fang Hong trembled with rage but couldnt utter a word! "Sister Zhang, didnt I say if I said I could keep you from being fired, I would keep you from being fired!" Ye Huan said smugly, taking out the SSS-level commission voucher and handing it to Zhang Huimin. Zhang Huimin was still in a daze, staring at the voucher without any reaction. Ye Huan chuckled and stuffed it into her pocket. "Alright, I need to talk to you, come with me." Tang Yao said calmly. "Got it!" Ye Huan nodded with a smile, slung his backpack, and followed her. Before leaving, Brother Huan paused, holding his phone high. "Grandpa!" A voice yelling "Grandpa" from Zhao Yongle came from the phone. "Damn!" Zhao Yongles eyes widened, and once he came to his senses, he angrily swung his fist at Ye Huan, only to be slapped back to the ground by Brother Huan, howling in pain. ... Tianyun International, underground parking lot. "Wife, I didnt expect you to drive such a nice car." Ye Huan exclaimed. Tang Yao had brought Ye Huan onboard a Rolls-Royce Phantom worth millions, its interiors extravagantly luxurious. "Dont call me wife. Besides, this is our presidents car!" Tang Yao started the car and asked, "Spill it, how did you negotiate the contract and made them pay an extra seven million?" "Charm." "Who would believe that!" Tang Yao was both shy and annoyed, unable to comprehend when Ye Huan had sealed that deal. She had watched over his office for hours, knowing Ye Huan hadnt left the company or seen any clients; the whole afternoon he seemed idle. Never mind if this damned rascal has any charm, but expecting to complete two SSS+S sales tasks on charm alone, and get them to give an extra seven million for free? Tang Yao couldnt believe it, nor could anyone else. Suddenly, she remembered Ye Huan had made a phone call that afternoon... "Be honest, was it the phone call that nailed the deal?" Ye Huan nodded with a smile, opening his phone contacts, "See for yourself." Tang Yao looked closely. Indeed, the call was made to America, explaining Finske Groups sudden procurement signing with Tianyun International. But one phone call having such prowess? Wasnt Ye Huan a primary school graduate, working as a mover? The more she thought about it, the more baffling it became; Tang Yao showed a puzzled expression. "Wife, where are you taking me?" "I told you, stop calling me wife!" Tang Yao said, embarrassed and furious, "Taking you somewhere." Ye Huan raised an eyebrow, could it be that my wife finally realized my charm and decided to truly be with me? Is she going to...? At the thought of this, Ye Huan seriously said, "Wife, arent we progressing a bit too fast?" "Who is your wife? Stop calling me that!" Tang Yao said through gritted teeth, "And we havent progressed at all, nor will we ever progress!" "Wife, look at you, why are you so tsundere!" "I think our progress is too fast, we just met not long ago, and youre taking me to a hotel, isnt this a bit rash?" "Moreover, between men and women, its better to understand each other more, so that when we get to the last step and become true couples, itd be more perfect." Ye Huan continued babbling on, with a face full of sincerity. Suddenly a hard brake, Tang Yao almost hit the glass, furiously retorted, "Perfect my ass, say one more word and youre getting out!" Heck! Tang Yao didnt reject, doesnt that mean she actually considered it... Are todays women all so open? Weve just met, and shes eager to take me to a hotel? Could it be shes eager for me to be a stepdad? No way, Im not falling for being a stepdad, better let Bao Qiang handle that, I mustnt be fooled. Ye Huans expression grew more serious at the thought. Tang Yao saw his look, knowing he was entertaining nonsense, and felt both angered and amused. "Ive got something to tell you." Tang Yao said, casting Ye Huan a brief glance. "What is it?" "Im not your wife, the person were going to see is your wife!" Chapter 15 Chapter 15: Chapter 15Celestial Sea city center, inside a private room of a certain caf. "Thats the situation, Im not your wife." Tang Yao sipped her coffee and said calmly. Just now, Tang Yao had already explained everything, clarifying that she went to the restaurant to meet Ye Huan on behalf of Liu Tianyun. This made Huan very angry, his teeth gnashing. Such a beautiful wife is suddenly gone? What a loss! "Liu Tianyun, right? Youre my wife?" Ye Huan sat cross-legged, looking at Liu Tianyun, his tone not so nice. Though his tone was unfriendly, Huan was very surprised inside. The wife that the dog master found for him was astonishingly beautiful, comparable to the princesses of Western countries, maybe even better. The only drawback was, too cold! Way too cold! Liu Tianyun had a demeanor that kept people at a distance, her features as if sculpted by the gods, the proportions perfect, and the beauty mole at the corner of her eye added the perfect touch, bringing life to her cold oval face. She wore a white suit, with a Givenchy womens shirt worth tens of thousands underneath, nicely showcasing her impressive figure. "Wife, Im talking to you." Seeing Liu Tianyun silent, Ye Huan urged again. Liu Tianyun raised her elegant brows and said, "Mind your words, were not married yet." "Thats just perfect, lets discuss perhaps you should dissolve the engagement?" Ye Huan winked and said. Liu Tianyun was a bit dazed: "Why?" She was very surprised, isnt this man supposed to be a lecherous wolf? Seeing her beauty, shouldnt he be relentlessly pursuing her? The next second, she was annoyed. "Why, you ask? You keep that stern face all day, those who dont know would think I owe you two hundred bucks, I guess youll hit menopause at thirty, what a loss for me." As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere plummeted to freezing point. "Bang!" Liu Tianyuns face darkened, and she slammed the table standing up. Ye Huan raised his eyebrows slightly, his swift hand moved as he got up, his right hand suddenly reaching out. "What are you doing!" Liu Tianyuns face changed, and she defensively placed her hands in front. But she was a step too slow, the button from the front of her shirt had already been snatched by Ye Huan. Ye Huan placed the button at his nose, sniffed heavily, and a smirk appeared on his lips: "Smells great~" "Pervert!" On the side, Tang Yao covered her face in embarrassment, not daring to look anymore. Liu Tianyun clenched her fists tightly, her gaze as sharp as a knife. If looks could kill, Huan would be dead a hundred times over. However, her right hand still covered her chest, otherwise, a sight would be leaked. "ZHT-7, the latest bugging device developed under the guidance of the US military, compact and portable, capable of transmitting sound sources clearly to distances of up to 1000 kilometers." Ye Huan said flatly, giving a light pinch. "Snap." The button shattered, revealing a headset-like bugging device. "A bug?" The two women were dumbfounded. Ye Huan tossed the bug into Liu Tianyuns coffee, producing a sizzling sound: "Just now, I said and did those things to create confusion, sorry." "A bug? Why is there a bug in my button?" Liu Tianyuns elegant eyebrows furrowed deeply, her face looking extremely displeased. The bug in the button must have been able to transmit everything she said. In that case, all the commercial secrets of Tianyun International would have been exposed? "I know why." Ye Huan opened his mouth to say. "Lets hear it." "Its definitely because you keep such a stern face all the time, people think you owe them money, and this is their revenge for not wanting to pay you back." Liu Tianyuns elegant eyebrows instantly shot up. "Cant even joke around? How boring!" Ye Huan pouted, "The person who managed to swap the button with a bug with your original button surely knows you, possibly someone close. As for why youre being monitored... I really cant guess, but its definitely not a good thing." Liu Tianyun nodded solemnly, acknowledging Ye Huans statement. But all her clothes were washed by herself, she never had anyone help. Also, because of the allure of the shadows lately, shes been busy at work, always between the company and home, never going to other places. There was no trace of anyone at home. Could it be a company issue? Liu Tianyuns face slightly tensed. "President, you still have business to tend to today, dont forget." Tang Yao whispered in her ear. "Okay." Liu Tianyun nodded, no longer thinking about the surveillance issue. The immediate priority was to resolve this arranged marriage issue. She opened her bag, took out a document, and a black pen, and placed them on the table. "Sign it." "What is it." Ye Huan looked confused, picked up the document, and his face immediately darkened. "Temporary marriage contract." "The parties will start from the marriage date and officially divorce in two years." "During the marriage, neither party shall have actual relations, and the male party is prohibited from using any means to force the female party, otherwise, the female party has the right to pursue criminal responsibility." "The male party is obligated to accompany the female party to meet the parents and act courteously, appearing loving and caring." "As compensation, the female party will pay the male party one hundred million Huaxia Coins after the divorce." Ye Huans mouth twitched, this woman was really clever. Not wanting to get married, she crafted a temporary marriage agreement to make a divorce in two years seem reasonable, with countless excuses. Like the saying goes, to deal with life, sometimes you have to wear green on your head... "If you dont see any issue, then sign it." Liu Tianyun said coolly. Ye Huan picked up the pen and swiftly signed his name on it. Liu Tianyun showed a satisfied expression, folded the contract, and put it back in her bag, saying: "One more condition, you need to live with me for these two years just in case my family suddenly visits." "No problem, suits me perfectly, after all, living together allows me to conquer you better." Liu Tianyun felt a jolt in her heart: "What do you mean." "President Liu, why do you think I signed?" "For that hundred million Huaxia Coin? Let me tell you first, my two years worth way more than that amount." "I think it would be interesting to spend two years conquering this beautiful ice mountain of yours, much more enjoyable than that hundred million." Sear?h the novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Ye Huan grinned with his lips curling up, smiling as he spoke. The entire private room instantly fell silent. Even a drop of water hitting the ground could probably be heard clearly. Conquer her? Liu Tianyun turned frosty-faced, slamming the table and leaning forward, her eyes staring directly at Ye Huan: "I must say, you have a pretty dream!" "I believe my dream is very beautiful, but reality wont be too harsh." Ye Huan maintained a smiling face while meeting her gaze, sipping his coffee from time to time. Tang Yao shivered, realizing that this couldnt go on, hurriedly trying to mediate: "President... President, should we... should we head back, theres still work to handle." Liu Tianyun ignored Tang Yao and continued, "Many have tried to conquer me, they were all better than you, had better backgrounds, yet have you seen anyone succeed?" "To tell you the truth, in my eyes, those people are just rotten fish and shrimps." Ye Huan shrugged, "Besides, I like challenging difficult things." The moment he dropped his words... Liu Tianyun laughed unusually. A few seconds later, she stopped laughing and picked up her bag before turning to leave. "You really did it again, angered the president!" Tang Yao gritted her teeth, took out a slip of paper and a key, handed them to Ye Huan, "This is where the president lives, dont go there tonight, the president is in a bad mood. Tomorrows the weekend, no work, you can go by yourself then." Ye Huan took the slip, suddenly grabbed Tang Yaos hand, smilingly saying: "Little bunny, why dont you marry me, Ill steal Liu Tianyuns money to take care of you." "No way!" Tang Yao, filled with shame and anger, "If you keep saying stuff like that, youll be cleaning toilets!" Ye Huans lips curled up. "Little bunny, you smell so nice." Chapter 16 Wang Biao Chapter 16: Chapter 16 Wang Biao"You lecherous wolf!" Tang Yao shook off Ye Huans hand, fleeing in shame and anger. Ye Huan chuckled lightly, finished his coffee in one gulp, and left the caf as well. Suddenly, Brother Huans expression darkened. The five hundred yuan "extorted" from Zhang Song was almost gone, certainly not enough for a hotel stay. Could it be he has to sleep under the overpass again? Damn it! Forget it, if I have to sleep under the bridge, so be it. Hmm? Ye Huans brow furrowed slightly, sensing keenly that someone was watching him, but there was no hostility or ill will in that gaze. Could it be a beauty has set her eyes on me? Being handsome is such a hassle! Brother Huan clamped a toothpick in his mouth, and headed toward the overpass. "Is it... an illusion..." Inside the Rolls-Royce, Liu Tianyun frowned, as she had been waiting for Ye Huan to walk out of the caf. In fact, at first glance, she felt Ye Huan looked somewhat familiar. It wasnt until Ye Huans figure disappeared that her brow finally relaxed. Maybe they just passed each other on some street, and thats why she had this illusion... ... Celestial Sea City, Crown Entertainment Club, top-tier private box. Zhao Yongle looked furious, saying, "Uncle, you cant just stand by and do nothing, please step in and fire that kid directly!" The man on the opposite sofa, with two women in his arms, did not respond. The two women served the man drinks and snacks, while he behaved unscrupulously, causing the women to giggle continuously. The man was Zhao Yongles uncle, the head of the human resources department at Tianyun InternationalZhao Zhenhai. After a long while, Zhao Zhenhai still wore a smiling face, but showed no intention of responding to Zhao Yongle. "Uncle!" Zhao Yongles brow furrowed slightly, his voice low. "Bang!" Seeing Zhao Zhenhai still not responding, Zhao Yongle slammed the table in anger, startling the two ladies, making them shiver. The private box fell into an eerie silence. Eventually, under Zhao Zhenhais now so dark it could drip with water expression, Zhao Yongle broke the silence, took a deep breath, and apologized: "Im sorry." Zhao Zhenhais face remained indifferent as he peeled a walnut and fed it to the lady beside him. "Speak, whats going on." "I cant swallow this! That kid dared to hit me in public and humiliate me!" Zhao Yongles face was full of anger. "I know, but I heard he has connections with Secretary Tang. How can I fire him? I cant dare to confront the presidents office at the moment," Zhao Zhenhai said flatly. Zhao Yongle let out a light laugh, saying, "Uncle, dont worry, according to my speculation, he doesnt have ties with Secretary Tang, but with Secretary Tangs good friendSu Qingqing." "Oh?" Zhao Yongle nodded with interest, "Tell me more." Zhao Yongle fully revealed his speculations to Zhao Zhenhai. He witnessed Ye Huan and Su Qingqing in close relations that very morning and even engaged in such activities in the office. In his view, the reason Secretary Tang intervened was because Su Qingqing did not want Ye Huan to make a fool of himself, yet she was too embarrassed to intervene herself, so she contacted her best friend Tang Yao. Also, the cooperation with Finske was not only being negotiated by him but also by Su Qingqing. However, her progress was not as good as his, and she managed to overtake him through other means, securing the contract for this collaboration first, then giving the credit to Ye Huan. This is how Ye Huan completed that 20 million sales target. Listening to Zhao Yongles analysis, Zhao Zhenhai nodded approvingly, saying, "Your analysis makes sense, but Yongle, we are at a critical phase of our plan now, we cant alert the enemy prematurely." "Uncle, what do you mean by this!" Zhao Yongles face turned anxious, "This guy just has Su Qingqing as his backing, youre the head of HR, way more powerful than Su Qingqing, what are you afraid of!" He was infuriated, believing that Zhao Zhenhai was growing more cowardly with age, actually fearing a young punk. "Stop babbling!" Zhao Zhenhai looked impatient and said, "This is the crucial stage of our plan, not a single mishap can happen. I wont abuse the power I have, or else Ill easily get caught." "But" "But what, if the plan goes wrong, Young Master Bai will be angry, can you bear the consequences?" Zhao Zhenhai said coldly, causing Zhao Yongle to shiver immediately, evidently very afraid of this "Young Master Bai" he mentioned. Zhao Zhenhai took a sip of his drink, saying indifferently, "Wu Deans side had some problems, and Young Master Bai is very displeased with him now. But this doesnt affect the bigger picture, within three months, Tianyun will belong to the Bai family, and then we, uncle and nephew, will be heroes!" "Then... about Su Qingqing..." "Heh! Youre only concerned about such trivial matters. When the time comes, you can do whatever you want with Su Qingqing." Hearing Zhao Zhenhais words, Zhao Yongles face turned quite vivid, he nodded, thanked him, and left the private box. As soon as he stepped out of the private room, his gaze turned maniacal. Su Qingqing, youre not far from death. Lets see if I dont play you to death when the time comes! Downstairs at the club, Zhao Yongle dialed a number. "Wang Biao, hows it going?" "Ill have it sent over within an hour," said the voice on the other end. Zhao Yongle hung up, a sinister smile creeping across his lips. Zhang Huimin, dont you like to resist? If you dare, try resisting again! ... "Such a pity for a girl so pretty..." "Whats to pity? Shes so good-looking, daring to go out alone at night, its like asking for death." "This young woman is in big trouble. What a shame, falling into Wang Biaos hands, shes done for!" By the river, strollers gathered, pointing under the bridge. Some watched with schadenfreude, others with pity. But one thing was shared among them, a flicker of fear in their eyes, keeping them from stepping forward, only daring to watch from afar. The woman was cornered under the bridge, shivering. Sar?h the n??el Fire.nt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Standing directly opposite her was a group of gangsters with tattooed arms, eyes shining with wicked desires. Their eyes didnt hide their hunger, grinning wickedly, using flashlights to illuminate and scrutinize the woman intently. The thug with sunglasses was clearly the leader, one foot propped on the railing, on a call. "Hey old man, whats going on here?" From the back of the crowd, Ye Huan tugged at an old mans sleeve, asking. Originally, he planned to spend the night here, and upon seeing the crowd, he got stuck outside, unaware of the situation under the bridge. "Hmm?" The old man turned his head, eyes wary as he glanced around. Once he confirmed the thugs werent looking, he breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "Young man, theres a pretty girl cornered by Wang Biao and his gang. She probably wont escape misfortune tonight." Ye Huan frowned slightly, asking, "Wang Biao? Whos he?" The old mans eyes showed deep fear, as he quietly said, "Young man, youre not from around here, are you? Wang Biao is the most notorious thug on Golden Sand Street. Backed by a dozen men, hes always collecting protection fees, smashing stores, harassing women, and brawling." "Couldnt they arrest him?" Ye Huan asked in surprise. "Arrest him, but its useless. His crimes arent serious. He gets detained for ten days, half a month, then comes out to wreak havoc again." The old man sighed helplessly. Ye Huan nodded. Such incorrigible hoodlums are indeed the worst, unafraid of being confined in detention. At this time, Wang Biao finished his call, put down his phone, and lit a cigarette. "Mr... Mr. Wang, could... could you give me a few more days? I promise I can... can pay the money back." The woman pleaded desperately. After the call ended, Wang Biao exhaled a smoke ring, looking troubled, "Xiao Zhang, this puts me in a tough spot..." "Ill definitely pay the money back as soon as possible, please give me a few more days." "Xiao Zhang, given Strong Zs connection with me, Ill allow you a bit of leniency, naturally." Hearing this, the womans face lit up with joy, "Thank you, Mr. Wang, thank you!" "Xiao Zhang, youve been alone for so many years, it must be difficult..." "Mr. Wang, you... what do you mean by this?" The woman looked panicked, crossing her arms around herself. Wang Biao blew another smoke ring, feigning earnest concern. "Xiao Zhang, I believe, Strong Zs spirit would want you to be happy, not constantly chased for debts, right?" "Ive found you a good man. Ill take you to meet him now. As long as you both hit it off, as a nuptial gift, I wont ask you to repay Strong Zs debts." "The man is deeply in love with you, Xiao Zhang, dont let him down." The woman shivered, her voice trembling, "Mr... Mr. Wang, thats... thats unnecessary, Ill... Ill pay the money back..." "Ah, just listen to yourself," Wang Biao said, snuffing out the cigarette butt, hands on his hips, "Xiao Zhang, havent you had enough being a widow all these years? Out of goodwill, Im connecting you with this opportunity, and that man isnt a stranger to you." "Who... who is he..." "Someone from your company, your department even. Wanna guess?" Wang Biao said with insinuation. The woman instinctively took two steps back, appearing panicked. "Come on, Xiao Zhang, guess who it is." At this moment, a voice swore from the crowd... "Guess-what-the-hell!" Chapter 17: Silver Bay, Boss Ye! Chapter 17: Chapter 17: Silver Bay, Boss Ye!As soon as the curse ended, the entire venue fell silent. The gangsters eyes gleamed with menace as they turned to stare fixedly at the onlookers. After a moment of silence, the pedestrians snapped out of it, instantly showing fear on their faces, screaming and scattering in all directions. In less than a minute, only Ye Huan was left on the spot; everyone else had fled far away. "Xiao... Xiao Ye!?" Zhang Huimin exclaimed, clapping a hand over her mouth. She hadnt expected Ye Huan to appear, much less expected him to insult Wang Biao. Wang Biao turned his head, speaking flatly: "Kid, could you repeat what you just said?" S~ea??h the novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Ye Huan raised an eyebrow: "Are you deaf? Cant hear clearly?" "Haha, youre really something!" Wang Biao laughed heartily, clapping his hands twice. The pedestrians shivered; they all lived in this area and knew that Wang Biao seemed genuinely angry. "Whats with that young guy, daring to insult Wang Biao?" "He must have a problem with his intelligence; otherwise, how could he do such a thing? Hell definitely get beaten to death if he provokes Wang Biao." "I seriously suspect this young guy is trying to play the hero to save the beauty, but he really doesnt know how to pick his battles. Can he really afford to provoke Wang Biao?" The old man who had been talking to Ye Huan earlier was full of regret, his lips trembling: "Its over. If Wang Biao finds out Ive spoken with him, Im done for!" In an instant, the pedestrians avoided him like the plague, quickly stepping away from the old man. "Kid, do you know who I am?" Wang Biao lit another cigarette, his eyes cold. "In this area, youre the first one who dared talk to me like that." "That just shows how badass I am." Ye Huan responded with a grin. "Badass now, huh? Lets see if youll still be this badass in a minute." Wang Biaos face darkened as he waved his large hand. The thugs eyes were fierce, all clenching fists, producing a bone-cracking sound that struck fear directly into the heart. "Xiao Ye, run now, dont worry about me!" Zhang Huimin shouted anxiously, face full of urgency. She clearly understood Wang Biaos ruthless nature; Ye Huan falling into his hands would at least lose a layer of skin if not his life! "Sister Zhang, what are you saying? Isnt it right to help when seeing injustice? Besides, theyve taken over where I sleep. Its really annoying." Ye Huan looked displeased. "If they kneel to apologize now, I might just spare them once." The gangsters were all stunned. Wang Biao was also stunned. The onlookers were even more flabbergasted, mouths agape larger than stones. This... this young guy, actually dared to threaten Wang Biao and his men, all on his own? He definitely has a problem with his intelligence! Wang Biao and the gangsters burst into laughter. Zhang Huimin, looking imploring, pleaded: "Wang... Brother Wang, please... please let him go. Ill go with you." "Let him go?" For so many years, Wang Biao had run amok without constraint. Anyone who saw him would respectfully address him as Brother Wang. Now someone had not only publicly insulted him but also dared to plead for this person? Wang Biao was extremely displeased, his anger rising, and raised his hand... "Pa!" A crisp slap rang out, and Zhang Huimin fell to the ground. "A widow like you has no qualification to tell me to let him go," Wang Biao sneered. "Let me tell you, the place Im sending you to today is Zhao Yongles villa. He gave me 200,000. So much moneycan you say you wont go and just not go? That would mean Id suffer a huge loss." "You... you..." Zhang Huimin looked incredulous. "What do you mean you! Qiangzi died on your wedding night, leaving you to live as a widow for years; what a pity." Wang Biao snorted coldly: "And you turned out to be so attractive. If I werent afraid of being cursed, Id have had you myself long ago; who would wait for Zhao Yongle?" "Wang Biao, Ill give you five minutes," Ye Huan said coldly from the side: "Kneel down and apologize to Zhang Huimin for your previous words and actions!" "Youre asking for death!" The thugs were indignant and lifted their fists, but their shoulders were stopped by Wang Biao. "Ill wait just five more minutes to see what you can do." Wang Biaos gaze was icy, and he chuckled coldly. Ye Huan maintained a calm expression, took out his phone, and dialed a number. Seeing this, Wang Biaos brow furrowed. This person didnt fear him at all; did he actually have some background... The next second, Wang Biaos face changed dramatically. "Call two hundred brothers, meet under the bridge on XX Road, and bring the weapons. Also, pay special attention to investigating a gangster called Wang Biao to see what he is, daring to mess with Ye Huan from Silver Bay." Ye Huan chuckled coldly as he spoke and hung up the phone. "Ye... Ye Huan? You... what street are you from..." Wang Biaos face changed slightly, his hand holding the cigarette trembling. As a gang leader, he naturally understood what two hundred brothers implied; that was the kind of power that only top-tier figures truly had! "Were your ears deaf when I said I was Ye Huan from Silver Bay?" "Silver Bay? Ive only ever heard of Causeway Bay." "Silver Bay, and you dont know Ye Huan? Are you even in the game? Do you think you deserve it?" Ye Huan sneered, face showing disdain. Wang Biao felt a sense of trepidation. He indeed hadnt heard of any Silver Bay, let alone an Ye Huan. But Ye Huans calm demeanor convinced him deep down that the two hundred men were already on their way. Two hundred menjust one mouthful of spit each could drown his gangsters; how could they afford to provoke them! Wang Biao took a deep breath and cautiously asked: "Ye... Ye Huan, may I ask... is there any matter for you to come here with?" "What matter? Do you mean I, Ye Huan, need to report to you whatever I do?" Ye Huan calmly walked toward Wang Biao, raising his hand. "Pa!!" The loud slap resounded, and Wang Biao felt a burning pain on his face, yet he could only bow and endure it, not daring to utter a word of complaint. The gangsters, however, were furious, cursing and raising their fists. "Stop!" Wang Biao sternly yelled, then walked up and gave a thug a slap, erupting in anger: "Dare to act tough with Ye Huan, do you have a death wish?" After delivering the slap, he lowered his head with a fawning expression. His performance rendered everyone silent on the spot. The onlookers were dumbfounded, looking at Ye Huan in sheer astonishment! What... what was this situation? The vicious, lawless Wang Biao not only endured a slap from this young man but did so with a face full of respect? This young man could actually make Wang Biao so afraid? This... This couldnt be! The onlookers were shocked, eyes wide open, unable to believe what was happening before them. Ye Huan helped up the dumbfounded Zhang Huimin, brushing off the dust on her clothes. "Light a cigarette." Huan Ges voice was very calm, but Wang Biao dared not hesitate; he pulled out a treasured box of cigars, grabbed one, placed it in Ye Huans mouth, and lit it with a fawning face. "Hoo~" Ye Huan exhaled a thick smoke ring, speaking lightly: "Royal Panda?" "Yes, yes, Ye Huan, youve got such a sharp eye. I was lucky to get a pack before." Wang Biao looked fawning, thoroughly convinced of Ye Huans identity. Royal Panda is a brand of cigars from Britain, exclusively for the royal family and high-ranking officials; less than 10,000 packs circulate worldwide each year. Truly the gold standard among cigars, each piece fetches up to 50,000 on the black market! He had stolen this cigar from a wealthy family back when he was a petty thief, and discovering the brands value had shocked even him. Without some influence, one couldnt possibly know about it. "Hand it over." Ye Huan extended his hand, saying coldly. "Hand... hand what..." Ye Huan didnt answer, his hand still outstretched in the air. Wang Biao displayed a bitter expression, taking out the Royal Panda and handing it over. He had only intended to test Ye Huan but ended up with nothing, losing both wife and troops! Ye Huan took the cigar box with satisfaction, blowing a puff of thick smoke into Wang Biaos face. "The cigars are nice, but Wang Biao..." "Messing with my woman isnt something that a box of cigars can settle, dont you agree?" Chapter 18 Oh Giant! Chapter 18: Chapter 18 Oh Giant!"Your woman?" Wang Biao shivered, nervously pointing at Zhang Huimin, "Zhang... Widow Zhang, is your woman?" Widow? A cold gleam flashed in Ye Huans eyes, and without a word, he kicked out. Wang Biao flew back several meters, clutching his abdomen and screaming in pain. "Little Ye, you... you hit... hit Wang... Wang Biao..." Zhang Huimins face was full of terror, her legs trembling uncontrollably. "Well done, Boss Ye, I beg Madam Ye for forgiveness!" Wang Biao shouted, struggling to get up, and said, "Boss Ye, it was... it was my fault, I didnt... didnt know Zhang Huimin was your woman, otherwise how would I dare to touch... touch her or insult her." "Kneel down." Without any hesitation, Wang Biao knelt with a plop in front of Zhang Huimin. He was beyond tears; every week he would bring his subordinates to demand debts from Zhao Huimin, without knowing she could be connected to such a powerful person. If he had known, how would he dare to ask for money! "Wang Biao, shouldnt we settle this account?" Ye Huan said calmly, "You slapped my woman earlier..." Before Ye Huan could finish, Wang Biao instinctively started slapping himself, the force was tremendous, with a few slaps, blood had already appeared on the corners of his mouth. "Boss... Boss, what are you doing!" The little thug underling held Wang Biaos hand with an urgent face. "Dont stop me, let me slap myself. This is my punishment for disrespecting Madam Ye!" Wang Biao looked determined, and after shaking off the underling, he slapped himself even harder. The underlings saw their boss like this, and even the stupidest among them could tell Ye Huans identity was extraordinary, and they became instantly terrified. "Little Ye, this... this is..." Cold sweat had already soaked Zhang Huimins collar, and she still couldnt figure out what was going on in front of her. Wang Biao, who usually acts lawlessly, was like a mouse meeting a cat in front of Ye Huan? Ye Huan put his hands in his pockets, the index finger of his left hand gently tapped the pocket... Sarch* The N?velFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The phone rang. Ye Huan took out his phone, "Answer" the call. "Hey, whats going on?" "Traffic jam? Why are there so many issues, you guys hurry up, by the way, have you found out Wang Biaos background?" "Just a gang leader?" Ye Huan nodded, saying calmly, "Did you bring the gear? Hmm, alright, quicken your pace." "I beg Boss Yes mercy!" Wang Biao pleaded, then angrily shouted, "What are you doing standing there, hurry up and kneel to Boss Ye and apologize?" The sound of kneeling in unison kept echoing, and the little thugs knelt in a neat row. "Yes, Boss Ye, we didnt mean to offend you, please have mercy!" "Boss Ye, please, dont hold it against us little ants, its our fault, weve learned our lesson!" The little thugs knelt on the ground, after knocking their heads three times, they looked at Ye Huan with pleading eyes, scared out of their wits. Two hundred people, all armed. Even if each of them swung once, they would all end up in the morgue! "Why apologize to me, apologize to her first." Ye Huan pointed at Zhang Huimin, saying calmly. "I beg Madam Ye for forgiveness!" The little thugs continuously kowtowed, knocking until blood came out. Zhang Huimins face blushed with shame. Madam Ye? Since when did she become Madam Ye? But her heart was still extremely uneasy, not daring to speak. The little thugs saw she wasnt speaking, and their faces turned anxious, knocking even harder, blood flowing like a river... Ye Huan twitched his mouth. At this rate, these thugs would have knocked themselves to death, and that would be hard to handle... He tugged at Zhang Huimins sleeve and whispered softly, only loud enough for the two of them to hear, "Sister Zhang, pretend to forgive them first..." "Ah? Oh..." Zhang Huimin was still in a daze, looking confused, but she still spoke, "I... I forgive you..." "Since my wife has forgiven you, Im not an unreasonable person, seeing how sincerely you kowtowed, I might let this matter go." As soon as Ye Huan finished speaking, Wang Biao and his gang rejoiced. But the next second, their faces changed slightly. "Do you see the elders over there?" Ye Huan pointed at the gathered pedestrians, "Apologize to them." "Apologize? Apologize for what..." Wang Biao was puzzled. The response was a big slap. Wang Biao felt a surge of grievance but dared not act out. He quickly stood up and led his men toward the pedestrians. The pedestrians didnt understand the situation and screamed as they scattered in panic. "Dont move!" Wang Biao shouted angrily, and they all dared not move again. The pedestrians turned with trembling heads, immediately stunned. "Plop!" Wang Biao and the thugs knelt in a row, repeatedly and forcefully kowtowing. "Im sorry, grandpas and grandmas, we shouldnt have robbed your pensions!" "Ladies, forgive us, we shouldnt have stolen your underwear!" "..." Wang Biao and the thugs confessed all their immoral deeds from the past, constantly apologizing. This astonishing scene left the pedestrians in disbelief, utterly baffled by the wind. They were utterly shocked, Wang Biao was actually apologizing to them? Could it be that he had a guilty conscience? That was absolutely impossible! If thats the case. Then the only explanation is... "Hiss~" The pedestrians turned their gaze to Ye Huan, all taking a deep breath. "This... this young man, just who is he..." "I dont know who, but... but definitely more impressive than Wang Biaos status..." "My God, how is this possible! More impressive than Wang Biao, his real identity must be terrifying..." "This is a big shot!" The pedestrians were utterly shocked, their faces full of immense astonishment, each with their eyes wide open. "Clap. Clap. Clap." Ye Huans lips curled into a smile as he applauded, "Not bad, not bad. Your apologies were somewhat sincere, get up." Wang Biao and his men reacted like they had received a great reprieve, standing up with fawning faces. "Little Wang, you performed quite well, Im very satisfied." Ye Huan patted Wang Biaos shoulder with satisfaction, "One last thing, based on what you said earlier, Zhao Yongle was the one who told you to lay hands on my woman?" "Yes!" Wang Biao immediately became furious, "Boss Ye, Ill go kill him right now, how dare he touch your woman, thats a heinous crime!" "No need." Ye Huan showed a profound smile, whispered something to Wang Biao. Wang Biaos expression turned extremely nuanced, nodding repeatedly before leading his crew away from under the overpass, kneeling to Zhang Huimin again before leaving. If... If they knew Ye Huan had made it all up, theyd probably die of anger on the spot! Two hundred people? Not even a single hair, it was just a fake call... It takes a villain to best a villain, Ye Huan knew this well, the best way to deal with these rogues was to be even nastier, even more of a rogue! As long as he appeared strong enough, impressive enough, relying on those "two hundred people," Wang Biao wouldnt dare to test the truth? Not scaring him to death wouldve been generous! Watching them leave, Ye Huans lips formed a faint smile... Zhao Yongle was about to have an unforgettable night... "Madam Ye, lets go, Ill take you home." Ye Huan said with a smile. Zhang Huimin paused for a moment, then blushed furiously, spat, "What Madam Ye, dont... dont say things like that!" Being called Madam by a younger man in front of so many people, she wished she could just crawl into a hole! "Alright, alright, not Madam Ye!" Ye Huan chuckled, "Sister Zhang, let me take you home, where do you live?" "I... Ill go home by myself." Zhang Huimin said shyly, but just as she lifted her foot, she let out a pained cry. Seeing this, Ye Huan quickly supported her, "Sister Zhang, are you alright?" "I... I seem to have twisted my ankle," Zhang Huimin gritted her teeth, her face turned even redder as Ye Huan held her waist. Ye Huan smiled, picking her up on his back. "Little Ye, you are..." "Taking you home!" Chapter 19: Treatment Chapter 19: Chapter 19: Treatment"Zhang Jie, you live here?" Ye Huan was greatly surprised. The building in front was likely an employee housing block from the 1980s, looking very old and full of historical charm. While the base salary at Tianyun International wasnt high, the commission rate was quite good, reaching up to five percent. Senior employees could easily earn over ten thousand a month. With Zhang Huimins financial capability, renting in a better community shouldnt be a problem. Why would she live here? "Yes, on the third floor." Zhang Huimin blushed slightly. It was the first time she was carried by a man, and her heart was pounding rapidly. After reaching the third floor and opening the door, Ye Huan glanced around. The home decor was extremely outdated, with a bulky television relying on transistors, dating back more than ten years, and even the incandescent light flickered under a thick layer of dust. Still, it looked very tidy, clearly regularly maintained. "You... you can put me down now..." Zhang Huimin said shyly. "Be careful then." "Okay." Zhang Huimin blushed and nodded. After getting down from Ye Huans back, she opened the shoe cabinet and bent over to take out a pair of mens slippers. But just as she was about to speak, she let out a scream as sharp pain shot through her ankle, causing her legs to buckle, pitching her forward. Seeing this, Ye Huan swiftly caught her and without a second thought, placed her on the sofa. Removing her high heels, he held her feet. "Xiao Ye, what are you doing..." Zhang Huimin said through gritted teeth, her face flushed with embarrassment. A womans feet are practically her third hidden feature, and having them cradled by a man like this was utterly embarrassing for her. "Zhang Jie, your ankle is already swollen, the bone might be slightly dislocated, and it needs immediate attention," Ye Huan said earnestly. "But its so late; how can it be treated? You... you should let go of my foot first," Zhang Huimin spoke weakly. "Ill handle it." "You will?" Zhang Huimin didnt get it and was about to ask, then suddenly let out a scream, covering her face with a throw pillow. Her face behind the pillow was so red it seemed it might drip blood. Despite being in her thirties, her foot was being cradled and massaged by a young man? This is outrageous! "Xiao Ye, men and women shouldnt touch each other like this, stop now!" Zhang Huimin said anxiously. Ye Huan chuckled and said, "Zhang Jie, we arent touching directly; theres a layer of fabric in between, isnt there?" Zhang Huimins legs were clad in black crystal tights. There certainly was a layer in between! But does this really count as no physical contact? "But... but..." "No buts. If its not handled now, you might end up bedridden for half a month." Ye Huan spoke seriously, quickening his movements. Zhang Huimin was extremely nervous, especially in her feet. But after a few seconds, she noticed the pain in her feet began to ease with Ye Huans massage technique, and even a cooling sensation started to emerge. ... "Snap... snap!" The sound of bone realignment resounded... "Zhang Jie, the misaligned bone is corrected, and the swelling has subsided significantly. Try walking normally now." Ye Huan took a deep breath and concluded the arduous foot massage. Zhang Huimin lowered the pillow, nodded, and took a couple of steps on the ground, exclaiming, "Its better, it doesnt hurt anymore!" "Thats good. But Zhang Jie, you need to be cautious. Even though the swelling hasnt fully subsided, absolutely refrain from wearing high heels and minimize walking as much as possible," Ye Huan said with a smile, slinging his backpack over his shoulder, "Alright, Im heading out." "Huh? Youre leaving?" As soon as the words left her mouth, Zhang Huimin hurriedly covered her mouth, her face burning bright red. Her expression was notably awkward, recognizing how her words could be easily misconstrued! Zhang Huimin steadied herself, speaking softly, "I... what I meant to say is, its so late, why dont you... you stay over for the night?" "Isnt that inappropriate, Zhang Jie, with men and women avoiding close contact?" Ye Huans resolute look almost made Zhang Huimin faint from embarrassment. "I... I didnt mean for us to sleep together!" Zhang Huimin exclaimed, her face flushed, "You can sleep in the bedroom, and Ill take the sofa..." "Just kidding, but Ill still take the sofa." Ye Huan chuckled, putting his backpack down. Truthfully, Brother Huan initially intended to stay over, but considering the societal implications of an unaccompanied man and woman together, he thought to leave. But since the woman offered, it shouldnt be an issue. With a sofa to sleep on, who would choose to sleep under a bridge? That would be insane! "Absolutely not, Ill take the sofa..." Before Zhang Huimin could finish, Ye Huan interrupted, "Zhang Jie, if you keep saying that, Ill leave. I love sleeping on sofas the most, so why are you challenging me for it?" "You... love sleeping on sofas?" Zhang Huimin was thoroughly puzzled. "By the way, Zhang Jie, how did you get involved with Wang Biao?" Ye Huan quickly shifted the topic, avoiding further conversation about the sofa. "Wang Biao?" Zhang Huimin said helplessly: "I owe him money, and he often comes to collect the debt." "Debt? Zhang Jie, you should be a seasoned employee at Tianyun. You seem to lead a modest life without extravagant clothes or bags. Logically, your salary should be more than sufficient." Zhang Huimin frowned, her face laced with complexity. The atmosphere was incredibly tense... After a long pause, Zhang Huimin sighed deeply, breaking the silence: "Xiao Ye, dont laugh, but actually, the money... wasnt borrowed by me..." "Not borrowed by you, then by who?" "By my husband," Zhang Huimin laughed, "Can you imagine? Im actually married. But on the night we got married, my husband went clubbing with his group of rowdy friends and ended up getting hit by a car." Ye Huans mouth twitched violently. Clubbing on his wedding night and then getting hit by a car. Thats definitely divine retribution! "My husband used to be Wang Biaos lackey and owed him three hundred thousand. After his death, the debt naturally fell onto me." "Its quite laughable. Back then, my brother was also gambling, owing a thirty thousand gambling debt. My father forced me to marry this person to clear the debt." "That man coveted me for a long time and even tried to take me by force a few times. When he found out my parents were using me to settle debts, he willingly agreed. Even though I was a million times unwilling, my parents knocked me out and forced me to marry him." "In the end, that man didnt even get me before he was hit by a car. The debts he left behind had to be paid by me, just so happened to be three hundred thousand." Zhang Huimin laughed self-mockingly, "Doesnt my lifes trajectory seem ridiculous? Now Im infamous in this area as a husband-killer..." "What husband-killer? It was his own fault. That was divine retribution! And Zhang Jie, you shouldnt care about outside opinions. Youre clearly an independent modern woman, way better than gold diggers or those princesses with no royal grace but a royal attitude!" Ye Huan couldnt take it anymore and interrupted Zhang Huimin. "Independent modern woman?" Zhang Huimin was stunned. Did someone actually call her an independent modern woman? A warm current surged through her heart, making her feel shy. Sarch* The Novl?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Xiao Ye, stop teasing me..." "Teasing? Zhang Jie, have confidence in yourself. Youre gorgeous and have a great personality; youll definitely find a tall, handsome boyfriend who loves you in the future." "Huh? Gorgeous? Great personality? Tall, handsome boyfriend?" Being directly complimented for the first time, Zhang Huimin felt happy yet extremely shy, seeming awkward. In the past, she wouldnt even dare think about these things, all because of that husband-killer title. Zhang Huimin slightly raised her head, and meeting Ye Huans determined gaze made her even more bashful. "Sit tight, Im... Im going to take a shower!" Unwilling to stay in this ambiguous atmosphere with Ye Huan any longer, Zhang Huimin blushingly fled the sofa, took a thin nightdress from her bedroom, and headed to the bathroom. Ye Huan chuckled, retrieving a Panda brand cigarette, tapping it on his thumb before lighting it, taking a deep puff, and blowing out a smoke ring. At this moment, the sound of running water came from the bathroom. Brother Huans mind couldnt help but drift off... At that moment, a loud, ear-piercing scream broke through from the bathroom. "Ah!!!" The voice belonged to none other than Zhang Huimin! Ye Huans face changed drastically. He quickly put out his cigarette and rushed to the bathroom, pulling open the bathroom door abruptly. "Zhang Jie, whats going on!" Right after asking, Ye Huans eyes lit up... Chapter 20: The Miserable Zhao Yongle Chapter 20: Chapter 20: The Miserable Zhao YongleWhile wearing a uniform at work didnt make it obvious, now it seems that Zhang Huimins figure is far better than those so-called top models! She is extremely skinny yet incredibly hot, with perfect body proportions, an S-shaped silhouette. Ye Huan feasted his eyes, his throat involuntarily bobbing twice. "Theres a mouse!!" Zhang Huimin screamed in panic, then, like an octopus, she leaped directly onto Ye Huan. "Wha...what?" "Theres a mouse!" Zhang Huimins eyes were tightly closed, her body trembling. Ye Huans mouth twitched, and he glanced around. Sure enough, there was a mouse, but it was obviously a juvenile. It got scared and quickly ran out of the bathroom, then scurried out through the kitchen exhaust fan gap. "Sister Zhang, its okay now, the mouse has run away." Ye Huan smiled and patted Zhang Huimins back. "..." After a moment of silence. "Sister Zhang, continue with your shower." Ye Huan said, then put Zhang Huimin down and dashed out of the bathroom. Suddenly, Zhang Huimin realized she had been seen completely, so embarrassed she wished she could crawl into a hole. How will I face Little Ye after this incident? Her face was so red it could bleed. Half an hour later, she finished washing up, mustered up the courage to walk out of the bathroom, took a deep breath of fresh air to calm herself, and then headed to the living room. But she found the living room empty... On the sofa was a note. "Keep going, you trendy modern woman!" Hmph, so young yet already so skilled at winning over women! Zhang Huimin put away the note, her small face turning bright red, feeling deeply touched inside. She knew Ye Huan left early to avoid making things awkward for her. ... In a certain villa in Celestial Sea City. Zhao Yongle, wearing a pair of swim trunks, sat on the sofa with his legs crossed watching TV, his face full of smugness. Sar?h the N?velFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Zhang Huimin, dont you like to oppose me? Even today, you give the task to that kid Ye Huan and slap me in the face with him? Ill let you understand the consequences today, Ill play you to death! Zhao Yongle smirked insidiously, and when he thought of Zhang Huimins looks, he became restless and immediately took out his phone. "Hey, wheres the stuff I ordered, hasnt it arrived yet?" "Is the money ready?" "The moneys ready, but you guys, can you move faster? I can hardly wait." "Why rush, you wont miss your stuff, just wait patiently." As soon as the words finished, the phone went silent, indicating the other side had hung up. Zhao Yongle felt a bit displeased. Just a gang leader, yet such a bad attitude? But whatever, Ill enjoy it with Zhang Huimin later! Five minutes later, with the roar of a car stopping, a van pulled into the villa courtyard. Wang Biao and a group of minions struggled to lift a big wooden crate out of the van. "What are you doing? Why put her in a crate, if she suffocates how will I enjoy myself?" Zhao Yongle looked displeased. "What if someone sees? You think this is an easy job?" Wang Biao exhaled a smoke ring, saying casually, "Wheres the money?" Zhao Yongle threw a suitcase. Then... "Bang bang bang!" The wooden crate started to make a loud banging sound. Zhao Yongles dissatisfaction instantly dispersed, his face filled with joy, a lecherous smile curling his lips. Resist! Dont you love to resist? Keep resisting, resist with all your might! Hahaha! He was just about to open the crate when Wang Biao placed a hand on the latch. "Wang Biao, what do you mean..." "Count the money." Wang Biao waved his hand, and the minions opened the suitcase and started counting the money. Zhao Yongle gritted his teeth, his heart itching with anxiety, but he dared not oppose Wang Biao, so he had to suppress his frustration and wait quietly by the side. "Boss, not a cent more or less, just 200,000." The minions counted through two or three times, then closed the suitcase. "Wang Biao, now can you let me have it?" "Hold on, well carry it inside for you." Wang Biao stomped out his cigarette and signaled the minions to carry the crate into the villa. Zhao Yongle nodded with satisfaction and followed them inside. But he was puzzled, it was just a crate and Zhang Huimin, yet it took six people to move it with such effort? Even exhausted and sweating, the six minions barely managed to carry the crate into the villa living room. "Alright, buzz off." Zhao Yongle waved them off like swatting flies. "Whats that, cant even catch a breath?" The minions panted, looking displeased. "What are you looking at! Want another OB shift, right? Sorry, but I like to dine alone, so get out!" Zhao Yongle shouted, pushing the minions out and locking the door from inside. "Damn, not even allowed to rest, is he human!" The minions cursed angrily. In the next second, they exchanged glances and smiled maliciously. "So, was the stuff enough?" Wang Biao smirked sinisterly. "Relax, thats the Divine Medicine of the West, 1 milliliter can turn any creature into a beast, 10 milliliters can knock out an elephant, I used 100 milliliters, guaranteed satisfaction." The minion said meaningfully, Wang Biao showed a satisfied smile, then started the car and drove away. ... As the banging from inside the crate grew louder, Zhao Yongle stroked his chin, his face ever more amused. "Zhang Huimin, did you think of today when you slapped me? When Ye Huan helped you complete the SSS task, did you think youd end up like this?" "Im telling you, Ye Huan is nothing in front of me!" "To me, hes just an ant I can crush at any time! He only helped you complete the task because he wanted to sleep with you!" "Instead of letting him have you, why not be with me!" "Think carefully, what kind of status do I, Zhao Yongle, have? With me, dont you transform into a phoenix? Ill give you two minutes, consider it well!" Zhao Yongle, pleased, sat on the sofa, dramatically whipping the air with his boastful talk directed at the wooden crate. Originally, he intended to get to the main business immediately, but such a thing wouldnt be enjoyable if the other party doesnt cooperate! Zhao Yongle still wanted to develop "Zhang Huimin" as a long-term bed partner, so he tried to use words to break down her psychological defenses. "Bang bang bang!" The intensity of the crates banging grew even stronger. Zhao Yongle laughed twice, knowing that "Zhang Huimin" had completely broken down, feeling even itchier inside, anxiously unfastening the latch, planning to fully subdue this once disobedient beautiful subordinate! At this moment... "Eer~" A deep sound echoed. Zhao Yongle looked puzzled, what was that sound? But as the latch fell to the floor, a massive "creature" crashed through the crate door, directly knocking Zhao Yongle over. "Zhang Huimin, dont be ungrateful even when given face..." Zhao Yongle cursed loudly, but before finishing, his voice grew smaller, his face changed massively, full of panic. Whats going on! It wasnt Zhang Huimin that came out. It was... A seven hundred pound sow!? "Ah! Help!!!!" Chapter 21: Young Master Xie, Don’t Be Impulsive! Chapter 21: Chapter 21: Young Master Xie, Dont Be Impulsive!The next day, as soon as Ye Huan arrived downstairs at the company, he was filled with bewilderment. A giant wreath was placed outside the company early in the morning? All white flowers? And theres a guy standing in the middle of the wreath with a microphone? If you didnt know better, youd think he was there for a funeral! Not only Ye Huan, but many employees of Tianyun International were blocked by this wreath outside, unable to enter the company, with the crowd even spilling out to the roadside, nearly causing a traffic jam. But no one uttered a word of complaint because it was clear that this "person" was a rich young man. In a bespoke Armani suit, a diamond-encrusted Vacheron Constantin luxury watch, and a pair of shiny crocodile leather shoes; the total cost must be no less than two million. "Qingqing, I love you!" "When I saw you for the first time, I was deeply attracted to you. Every night, I cant help but think of your figure in my mind. It pains me, I beg you to marry me, to alleviate my lovesickness!" The man knelt on one knee amid the wreath, holding a bouquet of flowers. Su Qingqing stood in the hallway on the 30th floor of the company, her face livid. Beside her stood Liu Tianyun and Tang Yao, along with several senior managers of Tianyun International. They were having an important meeting, which had to be adjourned due to the commotion downstairs, forcing them to come out and check what was happening. "Minister Su, that seems to be Xie Feng, the second son of the Xie family, looking for you. Shouldnt you go and handle it?" said Zhao Zhenhai, the HR minister, casually. "I have nothing to do with him, nothing at all!" "By the way, such a commotion at the companys entrance and the security doesnt handle it? Where did they go!" Su Qingqing stomped her foot in anger, grinding her teeth. Just then... Several security guards in uniform came over, carrying flower baskets and neatly placing them on either side of the wreath. The head of security also brought a few people out of a line of Mercedes cars, each holding a speaker, playing the most popular love songs of the time. If each of them had a Suona, it would instantly turn into a funeral mode! The man took out his wallet and handed each of them two hundred yuan as a tip, making the security guards smile obsequiously, nodding and bowing. Su Qingqing almost fainted on the spot. The security of Tianyun International actually helping someone disrupt company order for two hundred yuan? Just like her, there was Wang the Fifth, the Head of the Logistics Department at Tianyun International. Wang the Fifth was sweating profusely, as the Security Department was a subordinate department of the Logistics Department. If something like this happened, he couldnt absolve himself of the blame. "Minister Wang, I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation." Liu Tianyuns face was icy. "Yes... yes, I will handle it seriously!" Wang the Fifths lips trembled as he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. "Meeting adjourned, continue at nine tomorrow morning." Leaving that sentence behind, Liu Tianyun took Tang Yao back to the CEOs office, took a sip of tea, and said lightly. "Tang Yao, send a message to Ye Huan, telling him to resolve this issue." "If he cant handle it, directly transfer him to the Cleaning Department to clean the toilets." Tang Yao was stunned for a moment and said: "CEO, isnt that inappropriate? Xie Feng is the second son of the Xie family..." "Didnt he say he wants to conquer me? If he cant even handle Xie Feng, how can he conquer me?" Liu Tianyun chuckled lightly, a mocking expression on her face. Tang Yao nodded and started typing the message. She was also a little secretly pleased. Sar?h the n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Originally, she couldnt find a reasonable excuse to transfer Ye Huan to the toilet cleaning, but now the chance had come! The Xie family is one of the top families in Celestial Sea City, and Xie Feng, as the second son, wields immense power; ordinary people wouldnt dare offend him. Ye Huan thinks he can handle him? Absolutely impossible! Humph, just wait to clean toilets! ... Ye Huan looked at the phone screen, his face as black as Bao Qingtians. What does this funeral arrangement have to do with me? And now theyre asking me to sort it out? But if he doesnt handle it, hell have to clean the toilets, which is not happening. Since its Liu Tianyuns order, lets show off a bit and make her see me in a new light. Ye Huan, rubbing his chin, pondered for a moment before locking his gaze on the sanitation worker watching from afar... "Qingqing, marry me, I love you!" Xie Feng roared out this sentence, then clasped his hands together, face full of plea. "Xie Feng, get lost!" Su Qingqing came down from the elevator, gritting her teeth as she looked at Xie Feng. Previously, although Xie Feng was relentless in pursuing her, his behavior was relatively normal. Su Qingqing never expected him to pull such a stunt, even interrupting a significant ongoing meeting. Setting up such a grand scene downstairs was not a proposal at all. It was purely a disturbance! "Qingqing, Im truly sincere to you, please believe me!" With a serious face, Xie Feng took out a wallet: "Qingqing, inside are all my bank cards. As long as you marry me, I promise youll control all financial power after marriage. I swear to make you live worry-free for life, becoming the happiest woman in the world!" As soon as he finished speaking, he took out a small box, revealing a 100-carat Dior diamond ring, sparkling. "Bang!" The security guards pulled the strings of the poppers, and countless petals floated in the air. Some people in the onlooking crowd started to jeer. "Marry him, marry him!" One person shouted, then ten, then a hundred, and the crowds jeering grew louder and louder. Xie Fengs lips curled into a proud smile. Paying fifty bucks a person for ten people to hype the atmosphere, it definitely paid off! "Marry him, marry him!" The crowds shouting grew louder, and even the security guards started joining in. "Minister Su, Young Master Xie is so good to you, you should marry him," the head of security, Wang Jian, advised earnestly, "Young Master Xie is so handsome, so rich, and loves you so much. Not marrying him would be a loss for you!" Su Qingqing pointed at the head of security, angrily: "Wang Jian, are you Tianyun Internationals head of security or his personal bodyguard!" The head of security Wang Jian looked embarrassed and said meekly: "Minister Su, Young Master Xies family has business cooperation with our Tianyun International, Im just protecting him because of that." "I saw you take the money..." Su Qingqing gritted her teeth, but a voice sounded from the back of the crowd. She turned her head, stunned at once. How did Ye Huan turn into a sanitation worker? "Move aside, move aside!" A handsome fellow in a sanitation worker uniform came over with a large broom. "What are you doing!" Xie Fengs face changed slightly. "What am I doing? Im sweeping the street." Ye Huan swept the petals on the ground and scolded Xie Feng: "Dude, Im telling you, cant you consider us sanitation workers? Every single day, therere flower wreaths to heaven, or poppers scattering confetti. If you want to hold a funeral, go to the crematorium, why come to the CBD business district? Youre just making our work harder!" "Im holding a joyful event, how do you see it as a funeral?" "Youve got such a big funeral wreath on the ground, for a joyful event? Dude, you know how to throw a joyful funeral, youre quite ahead of your time. How about this, when the grass on your grave grows five meters tall, give me a shout, and Ill come dance on your grave!" "I..." "Young Master Xie, dont get impulsive!" The head of security pulled Xie Feng and whispered to remind him. Xie Feng took a deep breath, suppressing his anger and resisting the urge to curse. So many people were watching, and it was still a critical moment for the proposal, getting into a shouting match with a sanitation worker would make him look uncultured and lower his status. Completely unnecessary! The most important thing now was to launch the offensive! "Qingqing, let me ask you a question, do you know what my illness is?" Xie Feng asked eagerly. Just as he was about to say lovesickness... "Dude, I know what illness you have, its advanced impotence!" Chapter 22: You Are Fired Chapter 22: Chapter 22: You Are Fired"What the hell..." "Young Master Xie, calm down!" Wang Jian pulled Xie Feng back again. Xie Fengs face was full of anger, and he swallowed the rest of his words. "Dude, what do you mean by this? I said youre impotent, and you didnt believe it?" Ye Huan said seriously, "Youre not just impotent. You also suffer from chronic insomnia, night sweats, nervous weakness, overall fatigue, soreness in your lower back and knees, am I right!" Xie Feng was about to curse angrily, then froze. The symptoms Ye Huan described completely matched his current situation. Spotting my condition at a glance, are sanitation workers really this impressive? "Do you know whats wrong with me?" Xie Feng asked in a low voice. "Youve already ruined the public environment, and you still want me to tell you that you have severe kidney deficiency?" Ye Huan cursed, "Or do you expect me to tell you that your severe kidney deficiency is caused by extreme inferiority due to impotence, causing you to hide at home and practice traditional craftsmanship eight times a day?" "What the hell, stop talking nonsense!" Xie Fengs eyes widened with anger. Thinking that if youre not going to tell, then why say it openly! This kid is amazing, not only stating my symptoms but also knowing my inferiority and daily details, its just bizarre! Speaking of which, if he can see my symptoms, doesnt that mean he can treat them? The chronic ailment that has troubled me for years might have hope! Xie Feng was extremely excited, wishing he could have Ye Huan treat him on the spot. But there were too many onlookers now; if he let him treat him, wouldnt it confirm his own problem? I cant admit it now! He secretly made a hand gesture... Suddenly, someone in the crowd started to speak. "Come on, how disgusting is this sanitation worker, cant even do street sweeping properly, and even goes so far as to slander Young Master Xie?" "Exactly, Young Master Xie is filthy rich, keeps himself clean, not to mention whether he could even have such an illness, even if he had it, he could easily cure it!" "This sanitation worker is simply too wicked. Spreading rumors publicly, even ten executions wouldnt be enough!" Hearing these remarks around him, the onlookers retracted their strange gazes one by one. Indeed, how could a low-level sanitation worker who sweeps the streets possibly identify Xie Fengs ailments at a glance? And even know so many private things about Xie Feng? Its impossible, purely slander! The power of public opinion is strong. The money spent on hiring an online army was well worth it! Xie Feng felt greatly satisfied, looking at Su Qingqing: "Qingqing, dont believe this mans nonsense, Im not that despicable..." The next second, he felt like crying without tears. Su Qingqing only responded to him with a contemptuous glance and a light laugh. Xie Feng was utterly ashamed, despised by his beloved goddess because of kidney deficiency and impotence, wishing he could find a crack to crawl into. "Qingqing, whether you believe me or not, it doesnt matter!" Xie Feng took a deep breath, looking affectionate: "Qingqing, one more question, do you know where youre from?" He just wanted to say that you are my person, when Ye Huan directly cursed: "Do you still need to ask? Just by listening to Minister Sus accent, you can tell shes a local from Celestial Sea!" "I..." Xie Feng was furious but restrained his anger again. Youre impressive, but I still need you to cure me, so Ill endure! "Qingqing, one last question, whats your zodiac?" He just wanted to say you belong to me... "Minister Su is a pig!" "Guards!" Xie Feng couldnt bear it any longer and yelled out in anger: "Hurry up and get rid of this guy for me!" Since his birth until now, Ye Huan was the first to dare to oppose him like this! Thinking of this, a malicious look flashed in Xie Fengs eyes: "Beat him up ruthlessly, then throw him onto the street!" "Xie Feng, thats enough, the guards are Tianyun Internationals, not your personal thugs!" Su Qingqing scolded sharply, turning her gaze to Wang Jian. Wang Jians forehead was covered in cold sweat, his face showing hesitation. Just now, he stopped Xie Feng from getting angry because he didnt want to take action against this sanitation worker and avoid suspicion. After all, he was indeed an employee of Tianyun International. Helping outsiders in front of Minister-level Su Qingqing was inexcusable. Just didnt expect this sanitation worker to be so ungrateful, offending Xie Feng to the point of death. "What are you dawdling for, cant you hurry up?" Xie Feng said, directly pulling out a wad of cash from his briefcase and throwing it into Wang Jians face. "Wang Jian, how dare you!" Su Qingqing glared with clenched teeth. "I... I..." Wang Jian gritted his teeth, began to bend down to pick up the scattered money on the ground, and after putting it into his arms, he said softly: "Minister Su, Young Master Xie is our important partner, its better to satisfy his requests. Moreover, this sanitation worker is just here to cause trouble..." "Causing trouble? Captain Wang, arent you mistaken? He was downstairs arranging funeral wreaths and blocking employees outside. Isnt this causing trouble and wasting employee work time?" Ye Huan said calmly. "None of your damn business!" Wang Jian cursed loudly, waving his hand: "Take him down for me!" "Yes!" the security guards shouted in unison, then looked fierce as they surrounded Ye Huan. "Are you sure you want to help outsiders against your own?" Ye Huans lips curved upwards. "You call yourself one of us? Just a street sweeper..." Wang Jian hadnt finished speaking when he saw Ye Huan take out a Tianyun International sales department employee card and was instantly stunned. The security guards were also stunned. This sanitation worker was actually an employee of the Tianyun sales department? "So whats the deal, Captain Wang, not going to act now?" Ye Huan said with a smile. Wang Jians face darkened to the point of dripping water. Acting now would confirm the accusation of helping outsiders against Tianyun employees. This situation was difficult to handle... "Get him!" Xie Feng was displeased, throwing out another wad of cash. Sar?h the novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Wang Jians throat moved with difficulty, bending down to pick up the money... At this point, he could only grit his teeth and go through with it. Anyway, this kid was just an ordinary employee without any position. Even if he was beaten, it would be fine. He had people backing him up, so there was no need to be afraid! "Kid, Young Master Xie is an important partner of Tianyun, and youre just an ordinary employee daring to oppose him?" "Even if you are an employee of the sales department, we at Tianyun still cant tolerate you." "Ill give you three minutes to leave now, or dont blame me for being impolite." Wang Jian said righteously, his eyes fiercely glaring, pulling an electric baton from his waist. The security guards also pulled out electric batons in unison, and the atmosphere instantly became tense. "Wang Jian, what do you mean? Hes our sales department employee, do you dare to act against him?" Su Qingqing was extremely annoyed: "If you dare to act, Ill report to the presidents office right away!" "Qingqing, why are you defending this guy?" Xie Feng looked displeased and said: "Captain Wang, dont be afraid. Ill call President Liu for you later to assure your safety!" Wang Jians face immediately showed happiness, calming his mind. With Xie Feng speaking on his behalf, plus having someone backing him up. Even if Su Qingqing reported it to the presidents office, he would surely remain safe. The presidents office surely wouldnt make enemies with Young Master Xie and the person backing me up just for a part-time street-sweeping ordinary employee? At most, suffer some punishment, and the matter would be over! These two wads of cash together at least amounted to twenty thousand. Compared to that punishment, whats there to lose? "Minister Su, even if you want to report me, I must rid the company of this cancer!" Wang Jian declared. "Clap. Clap. Clap." Ye Huan started to clap his hands, lighting up a cigarette with a ghostly blue flame from a lighter, taking a deep inhale, with a meaningful smile on his face. "Wang Jian, is it? I announce, youre fired." Chapter 23: The Person Who Fired You Is Here. Chapter 23: Chapter 23: The Person Who Fired You Is Here.As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell silent. Everyone was dumbfounded. "Did I... did I hear wrong? What... what is this sanitation worker saying? Did he just say Wang Jian was fired?" "You didnt hear wrong, I... I heard it too..." The onlookers were taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter. "Haha, I bet this guy is some kind of small leader among the sanitation workers!" "Even if hes a small leader, hes still a street sweeper! Does he think being a leader of the sanitation workers means he can fire Captain Wang? Ridiculous!" "Exactly, utterly absurd!" The voices of criticism were continuous, and Su Qingqing frowned tightly. "Ye Huan, what are you talking about? Wang Jian has connections; do you think he can just be fired like that? I dont even have that authority!" Su Qingqing stepped forward and whispered, "You better leave now, Ill report this to the president later." "I can." Ye Huan smiled, took out his phone, and made a call, "Hello, fire Wang Jian within five minutes." The crowd laughed even harder. Wang Jian lit a Hongtashan cigarette, his face full of mockery: "Kid, you think youre all that, trying to fire me, Wang Jian, with a phone call?" Ye Huan smiled: "I really can." "A laughingstock!" Wang Jian sneered repeatedly: "Who do you think you are? Let me tell you, my dad is the head of the logistics departmentWang the Fifth, my big brother is the second young master of the Xie familyXie Feng. Do you know how powerful the Xie family is? In front of them, youre just an ant. Fire me? Who do you think you are?" As he said this, he glanced at Xie Feng, discovering that Xie Feng did not appear displeased, which brightened his mood. Recognizing Xie the Second Young Master as a big brother, this was simply great! "I said, within five minutes, youll be fired." Ye Huans lips curled up: "Besides, who is Xie Feng? Just a man with impotence and kidney deficiency." "Still being stubborn? Kid, Ill give you a chance. If you kneel and kowtow to me three times now, and..." Xie Fengs voice dropped: "Help me treat my impotence and kidney deficiency, I might not hold it against you!" "Second Young Master Xie, please stop, I really dont know how to treat impotence!" Ye Huan shouted loudly with a face full of trouble, his voice very loud. "Kid, youre ungrateful!" Xie Feng, furious, directly took out his phone and made a call: "Hello, is this Tianyun Internationals presidents office? I am the second young master of the Xie family, Xie Feng. Your companys security captain, Wang Jian, is preparing to teach a lesson to your sales department employee on my behalf. I hope you will fire this employee named Ye Huan and promote Captain Wang!" After saying that, he hung up the phone. Wang Jian was overjoyed; he didnt expect that Xie Feng, besides speaking on his behalf, would also recommend him for a promotion. If the security captain got promoted, hed be the head of the security department! Even his biological father, Wang the Fifth, didnt dare appoint him to this position to avoid suspicion. But with Xie Fengs recommendation, coupled with Wang the Fifths elevation, the position of security department head was within reach. The future looked bright! "Kid, Ill give you one last chance." Xie Feng spoke in a voice only the two of them could hear, "If you can cure my kidney deficiency and impotence, I can spare you this time." "I can treat it, but I just wont treat you!" Ye Huans lips formed a mocking arc, and he slowly spat out three words, "Im-po-tent-man" "Youre the one whos impotent!" Xie Feng, furious, gave the order to Wang Jian: "Beat him up and take him to the morgue, Ill cover for you!" "Hold it!" Su Qingqing urgently called out, then walked over to Ye Huan, "You better hurry up and go, Ill handle things here." "Go? Minister Su, we cant just let this cunning villain go!" Wang Jian revealed a sinister smile, pressing his finger downward. "Crackle, crackle." The electric batons were powered up, emitting a harsh sound. The security guards followed suit, powering up their electric batons, looking at Ye Huan with malicious intent. "Its over, this guy is done for." "He brought it upon himself, do you know who Young Master Xie is? Its not someone a sanitation worker can offend." "Right, he brought it upon himself! He was so arrogant just now, hell definitely get beat up and look like a mess, wait and see." "What do you mean look like a mess? I think hes headed straight for the morgue." The onlookers chattered gleefully, sure that Ye Huan was now deeply regretting. But the next second, they dismissed this ridiculous idea... "A word of advice, Wang Jian is about to be fired. You ordinary security guards, if you want to keep this job, now is the time to drop your weapons." Ye Huan, with a toothpick in his mouth, casually inserted both hands into his pants pockets, looking carefree. "At deaths door, still daring to threaten us?" The security guards let out cold laughs and swung their electric batons toward where Ye Huan was standing. "Why do some people never listen to advice?" Ye Huan shrugged helplessly. At the moment he lowered his hand, his gaze turned cold. "Shua!" A series of sharp whistling sounds suddenly echoed in the security guards ears. Before they could react, they felt an intense pain in their abdomens. Subsequently, their bodies flew backward several meters, blood spraying through the air. In less than thirty seconds, over a dozen security guards lay groaning on the ground. There was a deathly silence at the scene... "You... you..." Wang Jian pointed at Ye Huan, his mouth open wider than a rock, unable to utter a single word. The more than ten security guards under him, each armed with electric batons, were so easily taken down? How could this be possible! The onlookers eyes were wider than eggs, their faces filled with shock. What... whats going on? This sanitation worker not only wasnt beaten to a pulp, but instead, he knocked down all the security guards, leaving them howling in pain? And it only took him about twenty seconds? All at once, the paid trolls hired by Xie Feng all lowered their heads in fear. Remembering the security guards miserable state, cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, soaking their collars, not daring to lift their heads. They had led the charge in mocking Ye Huan, and if he found out, they were done for... "Alas, ignoring the words of the wise only leads to immediate suffering." Ye Huan smacked his lips twice, walking towards Wang Jian. "You... what do you want, dont... dont come over here, my big brother is... is Xie Feng!" Wang Jians legs went soft, and he spoke with no confidence. "Bullshit, who are you trying to associate yourself with?" Without hesitation, Xie Feng swung a slap. "Smack!" A handprint appeared on Wang Jians face, and he cried out in pain as he fell to the ground. "Brother Ye, I have nothing to do with this person, please dont misunderstand." Xie Feng wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, quickly distancing himself from Wang Jian, unwilling to be implicated and receive a beating from Ye Huan! "Young Master... Young Master Xie, how can you abandon me..." Wang Jian wailed discontentedly. Ye Huans lips curled up, pointing towards Tianyun Internationals lobby: "Captain Wang, the person who will fire you is here." Everyones eyes swiftly turned in the direction Ye Huan was pointing. "Whats going on?" Tang Yao walked over with an unpleasant expression. Seeing the miserable scene, she shivered involuntarily. "Secretary... Secretary Tang, save me, there... theres a terrorist in our company." Wang Jian struggled to his feet, covering his cheek and pointing at Ye Huan. Tang Yao looked at Ye Huan, then at Wang Jian, and directly raised her hand. "Smack!" Sear?h the novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The sound of a slap rang out. Wang Jian was dumbfounded. The next second, everyones faces changed dramatically. Tang Yao opened the file in her hand and read it blandly. "Today, serious issues arose in the security department under the logistics department. Security Captain Wang Jian dared to help outsiders bully our employees and blocked the company entrance, severely disrupting work order, causing a very serious negative impact." "According to the instructions from the presidents office, Security Captain Wang Jian is hereby dismissed, with his monthly bonus deducted!" "Additionally, due to Head of Logistics Department Wang the Fifths poor supervision, three months of salary, bonus, and performance are to be deducted as an observation of further performance!" Chapter 24: Shocking the Entire Audience Chapter 24: Chapter 24: Shocking the Entire Audience"Secretary Tang, you must be mistaken." Wang Jian frowned slightly, "Young Master Xie called the CEO to intercede for me, and even asked her to promote me. How did it turn into my dismissal?" Tang Yao didnt say a word and directly threw a document in his face. Wang Jian picked up the document and looked at it, instantly shivering. "Termination notice, dismissal of Security Chief Wang Jian." This document even has the CEOs offices seal on it? "This is impossible!" Wang Jian shouted hysterically, "Young... Young Master Xie already pleaded for me, how could the CEO still want to fire me? Besides, my dad is the head of the Logistics Department, Wang the Fifth, how could he let me get fired?" Tang Yao said indifferently, "Theres nothing wrong with the document; it was written personally by the CEO. And havent you heard? The head of the Logistics Department, Wang the Fifth, is also on the list of those being punished." "Wh... what?" Wang Jian was stunned, mouth agape. His father was a ministerial-level figure, and hes getting punished too? He couldnt believe it and took out his phone to start making a call. "Dad, whats going on? You got punished? And how could you let me get expel..." Before Wang Jian could finish speaking. On the other end of the line came the roar of Wang the Fifth: "Look at the mess youve caused, almost got me fired, and still dare to call me? You good-for-nothing!" Wang Jian was dumbstruck, his phone slipping from his palm to the ground. He looked ashen, unable to believe everything that was happening. The CEOs office actually fired him for this "janitor," and even wanted to punish his father? What exactly is his identity! Wang Jian shivered, lips trembling, not daring to continue thinking about it. "Captain Wang, how about it? Didnt I say that one call would get you fired, didnt lie to you, right?" Ye Huan smirked. Wang Jian shivered, looking at Ye Huan, and this time he didnt dare to mock anymore because this "impossible" thing had already become a fact. "I told you, firing you is a piece of cake. Also..." Ye Huan snapped his fingers with a smile, "I announce that all security personnel present are all fired!" "No, please!" "Spare us, its just a momentary lapse of judgment!" "Yes, we were short-sighted, give us another chance, we beg you!" The security guards endured the pain in their bodies, knelt down, and kept crying and begging for mercy. The salary for being a security guard at Tianyun International was as high as 5,000 yuan a month, and the work was easy, much better than similar jobs elsewhere; losing this job would be impossible to find another even with a lantern! Their pupils were filled with despair, regretting to the extreme. Tang Yao frowned slightly. The CEO didnt give an order to fire all the security guards, but since Ye Huan was the fianc of the CEO, what he said should still hold some weight, right? Silence. Dead silence... The scene was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop; everyone looked at Ye Huan in disbelief, shocked. Whats going on? He really fired Wang Jian with just one call? And it was even after Xie Feng called the CEO to intercede? Not only that, he also fired all the security guard? How is this possible! "Hiss!" The onlookers gasped, dumbstruck. Just who is this janitor? What exactly is his identity! "Captain Wang, let me ask you a question: can some impotent guy save you?" Ye Huan sneered. Wang Jian kept his head down, not daring to speak. He hated Xie Feng in his heart as well, but he didnt dare to say it out loud. "Kid, dont get too cocky!" Xie Feng, feeling his face couldnt be saved, gritted his teeth. "Oh, right." Tang Yao flipped the pages of the folder and said, "Young Master Xie, theres another document here that you need to review." "Due to Second Young Master XieXie Feng causing trouble at Tianyun International, seriously affecting work order..." "Starting immediately, Tianyun International is terminating all cooperation with the Xie Group. And President Liu Tianyun may contact the Liu Group to reassess the feasibility of collaborating with the Xie Group." Contact the Liu Group? This was like a bolt from the blue, making Xie Feng shiver hard, his legs trembling uncontrollably. "Se... Secretary Tang, wh... what are you saying? Terminate cooperation with... with our Xie family?" Xie Fengs lips trembled, struggling to swallow. "Its not me saying it, its the CEO." Tang Yao said coldly. "Se... Secretary Tang, cant you talk to President Liu and ask her to reconsider?" Xie Feng pleaded. "Please make that call to the CEO yourself," Tang Yao said indifferently. "I... I..." Xie Feng gritted his teeth and began to dial the phone. After a long time, the call still hadnt connected. Xie Fengs face grew paler, his whole body trembling, cold sweat pouring down like water. He was terrified, terrified to the extreme! sea??h th Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The Xie Group indeed has a larger scale than Tianyun International, but the Liu Group behind Tianyun International is a real behemoth! The Xie Group only developed to this level by picking up the leftovers behind the Liu Group. If his old man knew that because of his insolence, Liu Tianyun would complain to the Liu Group, his legs would absolutely be broken. Ye Huan feigned surprise at his appearance and exclaimed, "Oh dear, Young Master Xie, just look at how much youre sweating, its like youre completely out of energy. You must be practicing your craft ten times a day, right?" "Bullshit, only eight times!" As soon as he finished talking, Xie Feng covered his mouth. "Qingqing, I only said that without thinking, dont believe it. Im not that sleazy," Xie Feng looked at Su Qingqing awkwardly. Su Qingqings face was full of disgust. Xie Feng looked ashen, not only might his legs be broken, but his sordid activities were also discovered by his goddess. How could he ever face her again! "Its all your fault, its all your fault!" Xie Feng looked at Ye Huan, his fists clenched tightly, his face twisted in rage. "Come on, Young Master Xie, what are you doing? Your impotence and dysfunction have nothing to do with me, dont blame it on me." "Im perfectly fine!" Xie Feng trembled with anger. At this moment. "Hey? Young Master Xie?" An old man in a white coat came over with an evil grin, "Young Master Xie, did the traditional medicine I prescribed you last time to treat your weakness revive your vigor?" Xie Feng stumbled, almost falling to the ground. The onlookers looked at him with fascinating expressions while being shocked once again. This "janitor" had actually identified Xie Fengs problem with one look. Xie Feng really was an impotent and dysfunctional man! The men in the crowd all emitted sneering chuckles; after all, that matter is a real point of pride for any man. Unfortunately, Xie Feng didnt have it! Xie Feng realized he had lost face entirely, he slapped the white coat hard. "Second Young Master Xie, what are you doing?" The man in the white coat held his painful cheek, puzzled, but soon a look of realization spread across his face, "Is the recovery not going well? Here, let me prescribe you another dose, ensure you regain..." "Get lost!" Xie Feng slapped him again and then fled in disgrace. He fumed with rage. After today, the entire upper circle of Celestial Sea City would surely know he was an impotent man! How hateful! Why does that kid always oppose me! ... "Disperse, everyone disperse!" Tang Yao waved to scatter the crowd, then respectfully nodded to the man in the white coat, "Divine Doctor Li, Im sorry for not greeting you at the entrance. Ive got some matters to deal with here, please wait in the guest room for a moment." "Hmm." The man in the white coat nodded coldly, his eyes scanning over Tang Yaos body while a lascivious gleam... and a malevolent look flashed in his eyes... Chapter 25: Crouch Down with Your Head in Your Hands! Chapter 25: Chapter 25: Crouch Down with Your Head in Your Hands!In the elevator. "Doctor Li, on behalf of Tianyun International, we welcome you." Tang Yao said with a smile, shaking hands with Li Guangming. Li Guangming nodded with an indifferent expression. He was still upset about those two slaps. Just because youre the young master of the Xie family, you think you can hit anyone? How arrogant! Sar?h the N?vel(F)ire.nt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Doctor Li?" Ye Huan was surprised. "Oh, this is Li Guangming, the vice president of the Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, an experienced TCM doctor with twenty-five years of practice." Tang Yao introduced. Ye Huan nodded. Twenty-five years, indeed qualifies him as an experienced doctor. "Secretary Tang, who is this?" Li Guangming looked displeased. Someone here didnt know who he was? Tang Yao smiled, "This is the head of our companys sal... security team." Ye Huan was exasperated, "Since when did I become the head of security?" "Just now." Tang Yao handed over a personnel appointment letter. "The CEO ordered it personally, promoting you to head of security." Ye Huans mouth twitched. That Liu Tianyun really has guts, making such a decision without informing him? How dare she disregard me, the man of the house like this. As the saying goes, "Spare the rod, spoil the child." Looks like I need to seek advice from Brother Jinfu on how to manage a wife. "Ha, Secretary Tang, your security surely lacks insight!" Li Guangming sneered, crossing his arms, feeling extremely displeased. A mere head of security, freshly promoted, didnt recognize him? Tang Yao smiled awkwardly, not saying a word. "Doctor Li, are you famous?" Ye Huan smirked. "No doubt about it." Li Guangming replied coldly. "Then why havent I heard of you?" "Thats because youre uninformed!" "Oh?" Ye Huan looked serious, "I dont think its my ignorance, more like you dont deserve the notice." "Not deserve? Kid, Im the vice president of the Celestial Sea Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, a living miracle doctor. Who doesnt greet me when they see me? And you, as a security guard, have the nerve to say I dont deserve to be known by you?" Li Guangmings saliva flew as his voice rose significantly. "A living miracle doctor? More like a living fraud." Ye Huan chuckled lightly. "Boy, youve crossed the line!" Li Guangming shouted, his nearly bald head trembling. "Ye Huan, knock it off. Doctor Li is a distinguished guest invited by the company to solve our problems, show some respect." Tang Yao said. "Solve problems? You mean this scam artist?" "Dont slander him, hes a miracle doctor, not a scam artist!" Tang Yao quickly changed the topic, "Why dont you go inform Minister Su that youre being transferred to the security department, leave this matter alone." "Alright, but I still need to remind you, hes just a scam artist. Dont let him swindle you out of your shorts." Saying that, Ye Huan pressed the elevator button, then nonchalantly walked out with a toothpick in his mouth. Just as the elevator door closed again, Li Guangmings face turned furious, "Secretary Tang, is this the quality of your companys head of security?" Li Guangming was irate. He was a well-known TCM doctor in Celestial Sea city, who wouldnt greet him? Being slapped twice publicly by Xie Feng was one thing, since after all, he was a young master. But now, a mere security guard verbally attacked him? Even saying he doesnt deserve to be known? Unbelievable! "Doctor Li, Im really sorry. Ill have him apologize to you later." Tang Yao said, looking apologetic. "If apologies were useful, why would there be police!" "Huh?" Tang Yao was puzzled, "Doctor Li, theres no need to escalate such a small conflict, right?" "This is a small conflict? He blatantly insulted me to my face calling me a fraud, and thats a small conflict? Its an insult to my dignity!" "Wherever I go, Im respected. I didnt expect your company would have a head of security treat me this way!" "Secretary Tang, I think I need to reconsider whether to proceed with cooperation with Tianyun International." Li Guangming spoke "angrily," but he couldnt help but smile. "Doctor Li, youve misunderstood. We mean no disrespect. I will call him here right now to apologize." Tang Yao said urgently. "No need! I dont want to see him again, but if your Tianyun International is sincere, I could consider helping you..." Li Guangming suggested meaningfully, "To show sincerity... please arrange a quiet office for us to chat..." ... Ye Huan, with a toothpick in his mouth, strode over to the sales department floor, then stopped outside the ministers office. Though the sound was very faint, Brother Huans acute hearing caught it. Su Qingqing surely wasnt doing anything good. Ye Huan gently turned the doorknob, slowly opened the door, and walked in, controlling his breathing and footsteps to be extremely light. Su Qingqing was staring at the screen, totally engrossed, not noticing the mysterious intruder in the office... Ye Huan smirked, silently locked the door behind him, then walked up behind Su Qingqing and suddenly shouted, "Sweep the floor, hands on your head!" "Ah! I didnt!!" Su Qingqing exclaimed, hurriedly closed the video, crouched against the wall with hands on her head, an expression of sheer panic. "Wow, Minister Su, you have quite the taste." Ye Huan crossed his legs, grinning, "Didnt expect you to get your hands on the latest work by Ozawa, your connections are quite wild." "Officer, I didnt download the video, it suddenly appeared on my computer and started playing by itself." Ye Huan smirked, speaking coldly, "Ha! Do you think we, the peoples police, will believe your nonsense?" "Im not lying, I didnt download the video..." As Su Qingqing spoke, her voice grew quieter, and her face suddenly turned pale. This "police officers" voice, why is it so familiar? She turned her head full of doubt, suddenly erupting in anger: "Ye Huan, today its you and me to the end!" With that said, Su Qingqing got up and swung her fist straight at Ye Huan. "Minister Su, youre flustered!" Ye Huan blocked the punch, laughing, "Actually, its not my fault, its yours. Who told you to be so engrossed?" "I... I wasnt!" Su Qingqing blushed, angrily embarrassed, "Im not letting you go, Ill give you ten SSS tasks to complete today, otherwise go to the cleaning department to scrub toilets." "Sorry, I refuse!" "You dont get to refuse, Im your superior!" Su Qingqing smugly said, "If you dont want to scrub toilets, kowtow ten times to me!" "Sorry, youre not my superior anymore. Im here personally to inform you of this." Ye Huan took out a new badge and waved it before Su Qingqings eyes. "Head of Security? How did you become the head of security?" Su Qingqings face turned ashen, if Ye Huan became the head of security, doesnt that mean she can no longer make him scrub toilets? Then what about last time? Was her first kiss taken by him for nothing? No way, shed better just stab him with a pen! "Ahem." Ye Huan cleared his throat, looking serious. "Minister Su, as the new head of security, I must remind you, no activities unrelated to work during office hours, and no watching movies during work!" "If you must watch, I suggest doing it with an adult. Also, you have the nerve not to invite me to watch Ozawas latest work together? Minister Su, Im strongly condemning your act of feasting alone!" Ye Huan looked at her, appearing deeply hurt. "Ye Huan, you still dare to speak, Ill stab you!" Su Qingqing suddenly picked up a pen and lunged at Ye Huan. "Wow, thats murder, worth ten death sentences!" Ye Huan leapt from his chair, dodging. "Even if its eleven, I wont spare you!" Su Qingqing gritted her teeth, clutching the pen tightly and lunging out, but coincidentally, she stepped on a dropped folder in the chaos, slipping. "Careful!" Ye Huan quickly caught her. And just like that, Su Qingqing smoothly slid into Brother Huans arms and coincidentally snatched Brother Huans 667th first kiss... Feeling the warmth on her lips, Su Qingqings mind went blank. Ye Huan, with his arm around Su Qingqings waist, spoke seriously, "Minister Su, if I say it wasnt intentional, would you believe me?" "Do you think I would believe you?" Su Qingqing showed an innocent smile, clutching the pen tightly in her right hand and raising it. But the next second, both of their expressions changed dramatically. Tang Yao let out a deafening scream, as if the entire building was shaking! "Help!!!" Chapter 26: Without me, you’re finished! Chapter 26: Chapter 26: Without me, youre finished!Ye Huan and Su Qingqing raced out of the office, heading toward the source of the sound. "The elevator hasnt arrived yet!" Su Qingqing anxiously stomped her foot. "This way, to the 29th floor!" Ye Huan made a quick decision, grabbing Su Qingqings hand as they sprinted down the fire escape. The Sales Department was on the 15th floor, and in just two minutes, Ye Huan had pulled Su Qingqing up to the 29th floor. "Slow down, also, how... how did you know it was on the 29th floor?" Su Qingqing panted, resting her hands on her knees. "Why are you babbling so much?" Ye Huan closed his eyes, thought for a moment, then rushed to a door at the end of the 29th floor labeled "Reception Room," and kicked it open. "Bang!" With a loud crash, the door to the Reception Room fell down. "Who... who is it!" Li Guangming shivered, his face full of anger as he hastily pulled up his pants, nearly being scarred for life by the noise. Without a word, Ye Huan kicked out again. "Ah!!!" Li Guangmings body flew backward, slamming into the wall. He clutched his abdomen and slid down to the floor, spitting out old blood with a "poof," screaming in agony. His lower half was left with only a pair of boxer briefs and some track pants that werent pulled up. "Help... help me." Tang Yao threw herself into Ye Huans arms, burying her head in his chest. Her body trembled, tears welled up in her eyes, clearly terrified. "Its okay now," Ye Huan consoled, patting Tang Yaos back as he breathed a sigh of relief. Tang Yaos clothes were intact, indicating she hadnt been harmed. At that moment, Su Qingqing dashed in, glaring at Li Guangmings unzipped pants, immediately realizing his vile intentions toward Tang Yao. "You dare play the hooligan at Tianyun International, you must be tired of living!" Su Qingqing gritted her teeth in fury, raising her high heel and stomping toward Li Guangmings vital area. With that stomp, Li Guangmings eyes nearly popped out, his screams piercing the sky. "Tang Yao, are you okay..." Su Qingqing turned around, seeing Tang Yao clinging to Ye Huan, couldnt help but turn away, feeling a strange annoyance rise within her. Whats happening? Why do I feel so irritated? It must be this old pervert that disgusts me! Exactly! Su Qingqing, grinding her teeth, lifted her foot again, stomping down hard. "Ah!!!" Li Guangming wailed continuously, clutching his lower body and rolling on the ground. At this moment... Liu Tianyun led a group of people into the Reception Room. "Mr. Li, Mr. Li, whats happened to you!" Zhao Yongle exclaimed, rushing over to support Li Guangming. "They... they..." Li Guangming raised his finger, using what little strength he had left to point at Ye Huan. Zhao Yongle glanced in the direction Li Guangming pointed, instantly furious: "Ye Huan? What did you do to Mr. Li?" "Team Leader Zhao, you should ask this quack what he intended to do to Secretary Tang." Zhao Yongle paused, a bad feeling rising within him. "What exactly is going on!" Liu Tianyun asked coldly. "This old pervert tried to assault the little rabbit... no, Secretary Tang, so I kicked him away." Ye Huan shrugged, "President Liu, should we call the police to arrest him or beat him up some more before calling the police for an execution?" "Assault?" Liu Tianyuns eyes narrowed, his expression colder than ever. Sar?h the N??eFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Even in the scorching heat of August, everyone felt a chill, as if they had fallen into an ice cave. "Minister Zhao, is this the person your nephew hired?" Liu Tianyun cast a cold glance at Zhao Zhenhai. Zhao Zhenhai and Zhao Yongle both broke into a cold sweat. They knew well of Li Guangmings character, and had spent quite a bit to bring him here, often treating him to entertainment at clubs. But who could have guessed this old pervert would dare to try something with Tang Yao, and at the company, with force! Absolutely audacious! "Call the police, take him away!" Liu Tianyun said calmly. "No... you cant... you cant call the police!" Li Guangming endured the pain, forcing a few words through his teeth, "If you call the police, who... who will solve your product issue?" "We wont solve it, what can you do?" Liu Tianyun replied icily, making Li Guangming shiver violently. Ye Huan was taken aback, reassessing Liu Tianyun, surprised by this womans resolve. But the product issue... It was undoubtedly the problem with the formula of the Meiying series cream, such a trivial matter still needed an outsider? "The product issue, I can..." Before Ye Huan could finish, Tang Yao wiped her tears and softly said: "President... President, dont call the police, Im... Im fine." As her words fell, Zhaos duos faces showed a myriad of expressions. Li Guangming even kowtowed in gratitude: "Thank you, merciful Buddha, thank you, merciful Buddha!" "Tang Yao, you..." Liu Tianyun frowned elegantly. Tang Yao hung her head, clutching her clothes tight. She knew how much Tianyun International had invested in this new product, and without salvaging it, Tianyun might suffer for the next year, its development stagnating. Her own matter... Since the old pervert didnt succeed, let it go... Thinking of this, Tang Yao spoke: "President, Im fine. You... youd better discuss the formula issue with Dr. Li." "Yes, President Liu," Zhao Zhenhai promptly agreed, "Its likely Dr. Li acted foolishly in the moment; we should give him a chance, and the Meiying cream issue is too critical, we must have Dr. Lis help." Liu Tianyuns face was expressionless, her voice devoid of any emotion: "Tianyun International absolutely will not cooperate with anyone who attempts to use force against women!" "Well said." Ye Huan clapped a few times and said: "We must call the police and get him handcuffed. As for the product problem, dont worry, I can handle it!" Everyone was stunned. Zhao Yongle snapped back and sneered: "You handle it? Youre just a small salesman, how will you solve the product issue?" "I said I can handle it. Oh, and by the way, Im not a salesman anymore." Ye Huan smiled, taking out a new badge. Zhao Yongle squinted to see, then burst into mocking laughter: "Hahaha, head of security? Ye Huan, are you saying that as a security guard, you can solve our product issues?" "I said I can, why would I lie to you?" Ye Huan shrugged. "Nonsense!" Zhao Yongle cursed loudly, "Have you looked at yourself, you boastful security guard, how ridiculous!" Liu Tianyun raised her eyebrows. This man started boasting again; truly beyond redemption. "Such problems, solving them is a piece of cake? Just because you cant doesnt mean I cant." Ye Huan chuckled, taking out his phone, starting to dial 110. "You solve it with ease? If you can be that impressive, Ill jump from here!" "I tell you, to solve this issue, Ive looked all over Celestial Sea City for doctors, and only Dr. Li has the skill!" Zhao Yongle looked at Ye Huan with contempt, as if watching a clown, full of ridicule. "Hes a doctor? Just a quack." Ye Huan shrugged nonchalantly. Zhao Yongle shouted angrily: "Shut up! Dr. Li is a renowned contemporary physician; how dare you, a mere security guard, insult him? Apologize immediately!" Li Guangming basked in the praise, almost floating up to the heavens. "Yes, President Liu, without me, your product is stillborn." Li Guangming said smugly. But the next moment, the faces of Zhaos duo and Li Guangming changed drastically. "Hello Officer, I want to report an incident; an attempted assault at Tianyun International, please come and take the suspect away." Chapter 27: Punished to the Cleaning Department? Chapter 27: Chapter 27: Punished to the Cleaning Department?"Ye Huan, what are you doing!" Zhao Yongle angrily grabbed Ye Huan by the collar: "Without Old Li, our new product at Tianyun International is finished!" "How many times do I have to tell you? I said, I can solve the formula problem." Ye Huan pinched his nose, looking disgusted, "And, Team Leader Zhao, why do you smell like pig manure, can you keep your distance?" With that, Ye Huan raised his hand. "Slap!" The sound of a slap rang out, and Zhao Yongle fell straight to the ground. "You... you!" Zhao Yongle covered his cheek, his face dark. He recalled last nights events once again. Last night, he was sabotaged by Wang Biao, not only failing to get Zhang Huimin, but also... unspeakable with that seven-hundred-pound sow! His body was full of a stench. Because of this, Zhao Yongle bathed for five hours, used ten bottles of shower gel, only to barely get rid of the smell. Could it be that he hadnt washed it all off, but just got used to the smell? Thinking of this, Zhao Yongle blushed with shame, wishing he could run home and dive into the bath right now! "The police said they would be here in twenty minutes." Ye Huan hung up the phone and said calmly. "Lets handle it like this." Liu Tianyun said calmly. "No, please!" Li Guangming pleaded with all his face, saying: "President Liu, I was just momentarily confused, I definitely didnt mean to do anything to Secretary Tang!" He regretted deeply. As a Deputy Director of Celestial Sea City Hospital, he was a person of high social standing, and had saved up a few million over the years, living a prosperous life without worries. If he got arrested by the police, his over twenty years of hard work would be in vain, and he would go from being a renowned doctor to a criminal, unable to lift his head for life! Thinking of this, Li Guangming immediately knelt down, crying and pleading: "President Liu, Secretary Tang, I dont deserve to be human, I deserve to die, please give me a chance. Im willing to voluntarily help Tianyun International perfect the skincare formula, for free!" "I told you, Tianyun doesnt cooperate with criminals." Liu Tianyun looked down at Li Guangming, eyes cold. At this moment, Su Qingqing spoke up: "President, indeed we cannot cooperate with criminals, but theres no need to worry about the formula, perhaps Ye Huan can solve it." "Ye Huan?" Liu Tianyun frowned slightly: "Minister Su, dont say anymore, theres no Meiying, weve still got Meiying, lets focus on the future." Obviously, she didnt quite believe Ye Huan had this capability. However, Su Qingqing had personally seen the divine doctor Zhang Song call Ye Huan "Master," though she didnt know how proficient Ye Huan was in medicine, as long as he called Dr. Zhang Song, Meiyings issue would surely be resolved easily. "President, Im serious..." This time, before Su Qingqing could finish, Li Guangming, with a crazed expression on his face, laughed hysterically: "Impossible, in the entire Celestial Sea City, other than me, theres only one person who can solve your formula problem. Just wait, wait for the Meiying series to be stillborn and lose tens of millions!" "Can you shut up, you quack." Ye Huan stepped on Li Guangmings mouth and spoke into his phone: "Zhang Song? Come over to Tianyun International, 29th-floor meeting room, theres something I need you to handle." Zhang Song? This familiar name stunned everyone. After thinking for a long time, they could only associate it with that low-profile, reclusive divine doctor from the Celestial Sea HospitalZhang Song. "Zhang... Zhang Song? Dr. Zhang... Zhang Song, you think a single phone call from you can bring him here? Have you looked in the mirror to see if youre that impressive!" Even with his mouth blocked by Huan Bros shoe sole, Li Guangming continued to sarcastically sneer. Zhao Yongle laughed out loud, full of ridicule. Everyone there, except for the knowledgeable Su Qingqing, thought Ye Huan was just a clown. They didnt doubt Zhang Songs ability to solve the formula problem, but was Zhang Song someone so easily called upon? What a joke! Who is Zhang Song? A truly respected great figure, the world-renowned god of traditional Chinese medicine! Can Ye Huan summon him with just one phone call? "Ye Huan, youre really good at showing off!" Zhao Yongle clapped his hands, eyes full of disdain: "I know your plan, first pretend to call Dr. Zhang Song under the guise of luck to show off, then later pretend to get a call saying Dr. Zhang Song is unavailable, right? What a crowd-pleasing clown!" Liu Tianyun also agreed with this idea in her heart, rubbing her swollen temples, she was completely disappointed with this "hopeless" fianc. "President, please trust Ye Huan, he can definitely solve the Meiying formula issue." Su Qingqing said with determination. Liu Tianyun glanced at Su Qingqing, then sighed. In her eyes, Su Qingqing has always been a smart and capable girl. She couldnt believe that after just knowing Ye Huan for a few days, she was so deceived by him. So sad! ... "Hello, Im Qin Ya, captain of the police brigade from the city center police station." The policewoman saluted, leading a group of officers inside. Ye Huan and Su Qingqing were both surprised; wasnt this the officer who last time brought Wu De to justice, now shes responding again. "Officer, hello, please quickly arrest him and execute him." Ye Huan pointed at Li Guangming, looking serious. "In this line of work, comrade, we need to go through a series of procedures. Of course, if he really is a criminal who assaulted a woman, we will execute him." Qin Ya said calmly. Li Guangming shivered violently, lips trembling. He could no longer laugh, his face ashen. Execution? That was something he never dared to imagine before! All because of a moments impulse, it ruined a lifetime of opportunity, Li Guangmings face was full of regret, his fists pounding the floor. Qin Ya took out a notebook and calmly said: "Who is the victim?" "Its... its me..." Tang Yao lowered her head, whispered. "Can you describe what happened specifically?" "Li Guangming threatened me, said that if I couldnt solve our companys formula issue, we needed to show sincerity, and asked me to find a quiet office to discuss sincerity." "Then I brought him to this meeting room, and he tried to do something inappropriate to me, thats when I realized his sincerity was... was that kind of thing..." Tang Yao said this, Qin Ya wrote it all down in her notebook. "Take him away!" Qin Ya barked sharply, her gaze towards Li Guangming full of disgust. "Ye Huan, look at the mess youve made!" "It was just a small matter, now its escalated to the point where the police are involved. Dr. Li was taken, who will save the Meiying series, who will recover Tianyun Internationals losses!" "Do you know how much it cost me to get Dr. Li? What about you, all you know is to brag!" After the two policemen pushed Li Guangming out of the meeting room, Zhao Yongle immediately started cursing. Zhao Zhenhais face was also very unpleasant. They originally planned to solve the formula issue and gain further trust and praise from Liu Tianyun. For this, they contacted Dr. Li, spent money to take him smoking, to the nightclub, to the club, at least spent two hundred thousand in total! Who knew Dr. Li agreed to act, then upon arriving at Tianyun International, he was taken away? Two hundred thousand wasted! Such a loss! "President, I have something to say." Zhao Zhenhai said calmly, "This newly appointed security team leader, in order to have a moment of thrill, got Dr. Li into police custody, which resulted in the core issue of the Meiying series products being unresolved, causing significant losses for the company. And for attention, he pretends to call Dr. Zhang Song, its absurd. I suggest, we directly fire this employee who talks nonsense." "The core issue of Meiying is not his fault, but talking nonsense is indeed intolerable." Sar?h the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Liu Tianyun said indifferently, "Ye Huan, youre assigned to the cleaning department, participate in toilet cleaning work..." Before she finished speaking... A loud exclamation from Li Guangming came from outside the meeting room. "Dr... Dr. Zhang Song?" Chapter 28: Getting the Certificate? Chapter 28: Chapter 28: Getting the Certificate?His exclamation shocked everyone in the reception room, except Ye Huan and Su Qingqing! Divine Doctor Zhang Song? Sarch* The novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Could it be... Everyone looked at Ye Huan, dumbfounded. "Director Li? You are..." Zhang Song was surprised. The deputy director of the Celestial Sea City Hospital is being arrested by the police? This is big news! "I... I..." Li Guangming stammered, unable to utter a single word, his eyes full of shock. Why is Divine Doctor Zhang Song here? Could it be... Li Guangming thought of the phone call from Ye Huan and took a deep breath. Could it be that his order-like phone call brought Zhang Song here? How is that possible! Li Guangming couldnt believe it and asked, "Divine Doctor Zhang Song, why are you here?" "My master called me and said theres something I need to handle, so I came." "Your master?" Li Guangming forced a smile, "Divine Doctor Zhang, your medical skills are unparalleled, how... how could you still have a master?" "A frog in a well!" Zhang Song said coldly, "My medical skills are at the level of a three-year-old child compared to my master!" "How is that possible..." Li Guangmings lips trembled, he asked, "Your... your master, could it be that young man called Ye... Ye Huan?" "Whats wrong?" Upon receiving Zhang Songs affirmative answer, Li Guangmings mind went blank. That "kid" he mentioned, turns out to be the master of Divine Doctor Zhang Song? Zhang Songs level in Chinese medicine is champion worldwide, yet he claims to be at the level of a three-year-old in front of his master? What terrifying level has that young mans Chinese medicine skills reached! Li Guangming couldnt imagine, he just felt so ridiculous. Doesnt know him? Its because he doesnt deserve to be known! Even Zhang Song is his disciple, what is he? Just a tool? Living Divine Doctor? How absurd! In his presence, I am at most just a living charlatan! Why pretend in front of him? Why offend him? Li Guangmings face was ashen with full of regret. "Take him away!" Qin Ya waved her hand, leading a group of officers to escort Li Guangming into the elevator. ... Tianyun International, reception room. "Thats the situation, you handle it." "Ginseng and Asparagus? Master, handling this issue, isnt it just a matter of you taking a minute to write a prescription?" Zhang Song said in surprise. "I said I can easily resolve it, but no one believed me." Ye Huan spread his hands helplessly. Zhao Zhenhai and Zhao Yongles expressions turned extremely dark. Liu Tianyuns face magically turned a bit reddish, as embarrassed as could be. She really didnt expect Ye Huan could actually bring Zhang Song, and Zhang Song even called him master. Doesnt it just mean that if we let Ye Huan solve the formula issue, it would indeed be very easy? Too outrageous! Never saw it coming! Not just her, the two from the Zhao family didnt expect it either! But who could have believed that the world-renowned Zhang Song would call a young man his master? "Master, how about this." Zhang Song pondered for a long time, and said, "This formula was something I once designed for a skincare cream, but was discarded due to unbalanced medicinal properties. However, after you taught me how to balance the properties of Asparagus and Ginseng, I perfected the formula. Should I give this new formula to Tianyun International?" "Sure." Ye Huan nodded. Zhang Song took out a pair of glasses from his lab coat pocket, put them on, and wrote down a formula on paper and handed it to Liu Tianyun: "President Liu, here is the new formula for my skincare cream. Two additional herbs have been added, but the proportions of other herbs have been significantly reduced, and the cost can be reduced by about twenty percent." "Reduced by twenty percent?" Liu Tianyun was dumbfounded. The cost of the Charm Series is not low, a jar can reach 150 yuan, which is why Tianyun International positioned it as a mid-range product. But if the cost drops by twenty percent, it can completely seize the low-end market! "I... I cant just accept something so valuable for free." Liu Tianyun took a deep breath and said, "Divine Doctor Zhang Song, first let me apologize for our product departments staff colluding with outsiders to steal your formula. Additionally, I hope to purchase this new formula outright for twenty million." "No need." Zhang Song waved his hand, "Even if I hadnt come, Master could have easily improved this formula." "But..." "Theres no but, just take it." Nearby, Ye Huan said casually. Liu Tianyun hesitated for a few seconds, then took the paper with both hands: "Divine Doctor Zhang Song, thank you very much." "Alright, if theres nothing else, Ill take my leave." Zhang Song said lightly, and before leaving, he winked at Ye Huan, as if suggesting something. Ye Huans face turned dark. This old man is really cunning! Leaving the reception room, Ye Huan wrote a couple of acupuncture secrets in Zhang Songs notebook. Zhang Song was as happy as a three-year-old, laughing as he ran into the elevator. His demeanor once again left everyone greatly shocked. "Oh my, Group Leader Zhao, what do you think?" Ye Huan returned to the reception room, smiling broadly, "Didnt I resolve this issue easily?" "You... I..." Zhao Yongles face turned as red as pork liver, unable to say a single word in retort. Who would have thought that Ye Huan could commandingly call over Divine Doctor Zhang Song, even when Zhao Zhenhai offered a sky-high price of half a million and couldnt bring him over? And not only does Ye Huan know Zhang Song, he is actually his master! Who would have thought this? "Group Leader Zhao, didnt you just say, if I could resolve this matter, you would jump out the window?" Ye Huan gestured to the open window, "Go ahead." "You... dont be so arrogant..." Before Zhao Yongle could finish, Zhao Zhenhai snorted coldly, eyes hostile: "Young man, dont overdo it." "Wow, I almost forgot about you, Minister Zhao. Minister Zhao, what did you just tell the president about me? Could you repeat it, I dont think I heard it clearly." Ye Huan raised his eyebrows, smiling. Zhao Zhenhais face was filled with anger, his fist clenched tightly, making a "creak creak" sound. "Ah, I remember now." The corners of Ye Huans mouth curled up, after sitting down and crossing his legs: "Minister Zhao, I think you just said you wanted to fire me, right?" "Young man, didnt your parents teach you, a tall tree catches the wind, and one that stands out too much is easily snapped? Savoring a moment might cost you dearly." Zhao Zhenhais face was dark, voice gloomy. "Whether a tall tree catches the wind, I dont know." Ye Huan laughed, "I just know someone cant find a reason to fire me, and I wonder if hes particularly mad." "You..." Zhao Zhenhais eyes seemed to spit fire, pointing at Ye Huan, his eyes were almost popping out. How could he not be mad! Being publicly humiliated by a junior, mocked, turned into a clown, how could he not be mad! Zhao Zhenhai trembled with anger all over, throwing a furious look before storming off. Zhao Yongle also hung his head low, following with a face the color of pork liver. Watching the two leave dejectedly, Ye Huan was amused. "Come with me." Liu Tianyun said to Ye Huan, then turned and walked out of the reception room. Ye Huan put his hands behind his head, following while complaining internally. I helped you with such a big problem, cant you smile at me once? Do you always have to keep a straight face? Better watch out for menopause! Liu Tianyun went all the way to the underground parking lot, stopping at an extremely luxurious Rolls Royce Phantom. "Go drive." Liu Tianyun threw a bunch of car keys, and directly sat in the passenger seat. Ye Huan got into the drivers seat, started the car, and asked, "Where to?" Liu Tianyuns expression was calm, yet her words were shocking. "The Civil Affairs Bureau, to get the marriage certificate." Chapter 29 Bai Yu Chapter 29: Chapter 29 Bai YuOutside the gates of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Celestial Sea City. Ye Huan stared at the freshly issued little red book, completely bewildered. Just like that, they were married? And to a woman he had only known for a few days? This was really a bit too absurd. In the photo on the marriage certificate, both of their smiles were extremely forced, and their gazes were wandering, showing none of the affectionate appearance typical of newlyweds. "Dont get too excited, in two years well have to divorce," Liu Tianyun suddenly said. "Where did you see I was excited? Also, I advise you not to jump to conclusions too soon. In two years, if you end up begging me not to divorce, that would be awkward." "Beg you?" Liu Tianyun arched an eyebrow. "Relax, its not going to happen." "President Liu, dont speak too soon. Didnt you just doubt I could solve the formula issue? And now?" As soon as she heard that, Liu Tianyuns face showed embarrassment, her pretty face turning slightly red: "I said it didnt need solving, it was you who acted on your own." Saying this, Liu Tianyun snorted coldly and directly got into the passenger seat of the car. Well, well! Ye Huan was amused. This ice queen has a tsundere side? Its truly a miracle! But admittedly, the way she looks indeed has a certain charm! "Wife, where are we going now?" Ye Huan got into the drivers seat, smiling broadly. Wife? Liu Tianyuns eyebrows shot up as she said, "I warn you once, dont call me wife. To the airport, my parents are returning to the country today, theyll arrive in Celestial Sea this afternoon." Ye Huan stepped on the gas pedal, making the car shoot out like a rocket, while saying seriously, "Wife, weve got our marriage certificate, isnt it only natural for me to call you wife? Its a right granted by law!" "Dont call me that!" "Wife, I advise you to start calling me husband sooner than later. Otherwise, if you fall in love with me and cant change your habit, that would be awkward." "You..." Liu Tianyun was furious: "This is the third time, I solemnly warn you, dont call me wife!" "Wife, lets not count third times or anything. I think you should stop putting on a long face like a grumpy woman, it doesnt suit your aura." "Stop the car!" Liu Tianyun shouted sternly. Ye Huan didnt pay attention, so Liu Tianyun directly pressed down on his thigh and stepped on the brake. "What the heck, are you crazy!" "Phew!" This Rolls-Royce Phantom worth tens of millions almost crashed into a big tree, but luckily Ye Huan steered the wheel a few times swiftly, avoiding disaster. "Get out of the car!" "What for?" "Im going to drive." Hearing Liu Tianyun say this, Ye Huan felt secretly pleased. Actually, he intended to edge close to disaster, wanting to see what consequence would follow after being "warned three times" by Liu Tianyun. Unexpectedly, the "consequence" was not being allowed to drive? Perhaps, in the eyes of ordinary people, being able to drive a luxury car worth tens of millions is a very extravagant thing, but Ye Huan doesnt care one bit! After all, back at the Dark World base, Ye Huan had more than five custom luxury cars worth over a hundred million. "Wife, are you sure you want to drive?" Ye Huan continued to test: "I think its better if I drive." "Get out." Liu Tianyun said these two words gently, then opened the passenger door and got out. Ye Huan "regretfully" sighed, opened the door, and walked over to the passenger door, tugging at the handle. "Clack... clack..." He tugged for quite a while, and even though the handle became loose, the door still wouldnt open. Ye Huan knocked on the window and said, "Wife, I think the door is locked, can you unlock it for me?" Sitting in the drivers seat, Liu Tianyun slowly rolled down the window, revealing a harmless smile. Then... She started the car. "What the heck, what do you plan to do!" Ye Huans face turned dark as he held onto the window and asked. "Guess what." Liu Tianyun said with a smile. "Liu Tianyun, Im warning you, dont mess around." Ye Huan pointed at Liu Tianyun, his face full of threat, gritting his teeth. After a few seconds, under Ye Huans gaze, Liu Tianyun slowly rolled up the car window and then stepped on the accelerator. "Damn it!" "Liu Tianyun, youve really got some nerve, tricking me out of the car and leaving me in this desolate place. If I dont teach you a lesson, you really wont know whos the boss at home!" "Just dont run away if you dare!" Ye Huan chased for two minutes, unable to shake off the black lines from his face. No wonder the ancients said that women should not be messed with. They were right! Listening to the cursing from behind, a trace of a triumphant, beautiful curve appeared at the corner of Liu Tianyuns mouth. Its just that no one was lucky enough to appreciate that beautiful curve. ... Celestial Sea International Airport. It was the season of autumn heat, and under the blazing sun, Celestial Sea had turned into a giant oven, leaving pedestrians sweaty and a bit breathless. Sweat dripped onto the ground, making a "sizzling... sizzle" sound, evaporating instantly. Liu Tianyun stood calmly in the waiting area outside the airport, catching the attention of many passersby. Seeing a pair of extraordinary middle-aged men and women come out of security, Liu Tianyuns eyes lit up. But soon, her face turned gloomy again. "Tianyun, mom missed you so much, let me take a look!" Liu Dandan smiled, kissed Liu Tianyuns cheek, spun her around, and then pondered, "Youve gained weight." "No way, mom, dont talk nonsense!" Liu Tianyun blushed slightly. "Yes, yes, mom must have seen it wrong!" Liu Dandan laughed. At this time, the middle-aged man next to Liu Dandan smiled awkwardly and waved a greeting, "Tian... Tianyun, hello..." Liu Tianyun nodded indifferently, without speaking. The middle-aged man looked embarrassed, put down his hand, and closed his mouth. Liu Tianyun looked to the side and said coldly, "Why did you bring this annoying person?" "Tianyun, long time no see, I asked uncle and aunt to bring me here. I wanted to see how youve been these past few years." The man smiled, his rows of white teeth gleaming. He was wearing a custom Givenchy suit, with a bouquet of roses pinned to his breast pocket, and a pair of Playboy AUS crocodile leather shoes on his feet, exuding a noble aura with every move. Liu Tianyun sneered and said, "Im doing well, no need for your concern, you can leave now." "Yes, Tianyun, you are doing really well, even married to another man." The man sighed, his tone sour. "Its good that you know Im married. Dont bother me in the future." Liu Tianyun gave no face whatsoever. "Tianyun, why do you talk like that?" Liu Dandan looked displeased, "Xiao Yu came this time just to see you." "Auntie, you got it wrong." Bai Yu wagged his finger and said, "I came for another important purpose, to bring happiness to Tianyun." With these words, the atmosphere plummeted to freezing point. Liu Tianyuns expression was as ugly as it could be. "Bai Yu, what do you mean?" "What do I mean?" Bai Yu took out the rose from his suit breast pocket and handed it to Liu Tianyun with a look of deep affection, "Tianyun, I know you were forced to marry by Old Master Liu. In truth, you dont want to marry that man, right?" "Oh, youre so confident?" Liu Tianyun took the rose, sneered, and then threw it on the ground. She ground it lightly with her toe. The bright rose instantly became unsightly. Bai Yu showed no sign of anger, instead, he nodded confidently. "Tianyun, I know you too well. You couldnt possibly marry a stranger just because of a marriage contract!" "Just say the word, and Ill propose to Old Master Liu to cancel the marriage. After all, apart from me, what other man can be good enough for you?" "That stranger fianc of yours? In front of me, hes just a fragile ant." "Just say the word, and we can get married immediately, then have a child. When he grows up, merging the Bai and Liu families and advancing to Yanjing is not impossible!" Bai Yu said, looking eagerly hopeful. "You really are like a clown, an overconfidentclown." Liu Tianyun looked amused, laughed, and opened her handbag. A still warm red little book was thrown at Bai Yus face and then fell to the ground... Bai Yu shuddered, bent down, and picked up the small book with trembling hands. Looking at the three glittering wordsMarriage Certificate. Sarch* The n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Bai Yus legs went weak, and he fell to the ground. Chapter 30 Fake Certificate? Chapter 30: Chapter 30 Fake Certificate?In the evening, Ye Huan, drenched in sweat, stopped in front of a luxury villa area. Penglai Lakefront, one of the most luxurious villa areas in Celestial Sea City, situated on the shores of Penglai Lake on the outskirts of Celestial Sea. Numerous lotus leaves floated in the lake, its waters clear to the bottom, with beautiful scenic views. The air in the entire villa community was also incredibly fresh, and those who could live here were undoubtedly billionaires. Under the reflection of the setting sun, the villa area appeared magnificent. "S01." Glancing at the house number on the note, Ye Huan walked towards the gate of the villa area. "Hey, hold on, hold on!" The security guard, sitting on a chair, stood up after exhaling a smoke ring, waved his hand as if shooing away flies: "Buddy, theres no junk for you to collect here, go somewhere else." "Collecting junk?" Ye Huan was taken aback, and said, "You must be mistaken, Im going home." The security guard looked disdainful: "Joke, the people living here are either real estate tycoons or business moguls, if not A-list stars. You could live here? Have you ever looked in the mirror..." The more he spoke, the softer the security guards voice became as he began to ponder. That rich young master mentioned that a person dressed quite ordinarily might come over to cause trouble and instructed me to make things difficult for him... Could it be him? Anyone daring to come to Penglai Lakefront to cause trouble, even without a bribe from that rich young master, must be handled properly, right! "Buddy, you live in S-01?" The security guard took a deep drag on his cigarette, hands on his hips. "Yes, did my wife inform you?" "Bullshit!" The security guard cursed: "Do you know what kind of house S-01 is? Its the most luxurious villa in the entire area, worth over three hundred million. You could live there? Youre that impressive?" Ye Huan was speechless. Liu Tianyun, this woman, really knows how to enjoy life. Living in a three hundred million villa, shes truly a spendthrift. "What good does it do me to lie to you? Just let me in, or Ill have to file a complaint against you," Ye Huan said helplessly. "Benefits? There are plenty of benefits!" "Those big shots who live inside, even the junk they discard is valuable. Come clean, are you trying to get in there to pick up junk?" The security guard sneered: "As for complaints... Go ahead, do I look like Im afraid? Ill give you three minutes, get lost, or else youll be in trouble!" A man in the distance watched this scene with a sneer. Ye Huan felt utterly frustrated, wanting to call Liu Tianyun, only to realize he didnt have her phone number. This was too awkward. "What are you standing there for, you have two minutes left, hurry up and leave." The security guard said fiercely, exhaling a smoke ring and pulling out a metal rod from his waist, his eyes filled with menace. "Alright, I wont make things difficult for you." After pondering for a moment, Ye Huan said, "Contact the owner of S-01 and have her come meet me and youll know whats going on..." "Bah!" Without waiting for Ye Huan to finish, the security guard interrupted with disdain: "The owners here spend tens of thousands of dollars every minute, you think theyd waste their precious time because of you? Is that possible!" Ye Huans mouth twitched, the security guards contempt was really something else. Thats right, theres the marriage certificate, isnt there? That should prove my identity, right? "Will this prove my identity?" Ye Huan opened the small red booklet and said calmly. "What is it?" The security guard looked closely, and his legs went weak: "You... youre..." Villa No. S-01 was indeed the most luxurious in the Penglai Lakefront, owned by the president of Tianyun International, Liu Tianyun, and the security guard naturally knew this! But the woman on the marriage certificate was actually Liu Tianyun? This "pauper" was actually Liu Tianyuns husband? How could this be possible! Ye Huan smirked and said: "Youve wasted a lot of my time, Im going to file a complaint against you, just you wait." "No... dont." The security guard pleaded, but before he could finish, a man in a suit came over. "Ye Huan, you still dare to come here?" Bai Yu scolded coldly, "Ive told you many times, Tianyun cannot be with you. You think getting a fake marriage certificate makes it real with Tianyun? Ridiculous!" Fake certificate? The security guard paused, recalling the photo in the small booklet. The photo was indeed of Ye Huan and Liu Tianyun, but the two in the photo seemed estranged, not like a newlywed couple at all. Could it have been photoshopped? Yes, it must be photoshopped! This guy used a fake certificate to fool me? The security guards face darkened and he said, "You punk, you dared to use a fake certificate to trick me?" "This is not a fake certificate, you can check it if you want." Ye Huan shrugged, looked at the suited man, and said coldly, "And you are?" "Allow me to introduce myself, I am Bai Yu. Not only the second son of the Bai Family but also Tianyuns lover, as well as the male owner of S-01 at Penglai Lakefront." Bai Yu smiled slightly, "Ive worked overseas for a long time, and upon hearing that you, a junk collector, were harassing Tianyun, I rushed back. I didnt expect you to follow to Penglai Lakefront. Making a fake certificate to try and gain entry to the villa? Laughable." Ye Huans eyes narrowed gradually: "Ive never heard of my wife having anyone other than me as a lover, so this certificate is certainly not fake." "Heh!" Bai Yu sneered and said, "Ive known Tianyun for decades, we played together since we were kids. I know her heart has long been in love with me, she just isnt good at expressing it. Unlike you, a filthy creature, resorting to the despicable act of making fake certificates. Laughable." His actions exuded a noble air, which made the security guard fawn. At the same time, the security guard reinforced his belief that President Tianyun, such a pure woman, could not possibly marry this "pauper." Instead, this rich young master, with his generosity and exceptional demeanor, was a perfect match for CEO Liu! Thus, this paupers certificate was definitely fake, with the intent to infiltrate S-01 and make advances on Liu Tianyun, despicable! If he succeeded, surely I would lose my job! The security guards heart burned with anger, his eyes filled with malice. "Sir, please step aside." S~ea??h the N?vel?ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "I think its necessary to get rid of this dangerous junk collector." The security guard raised the metal rod, looking ferocious. Bai Yu revealed a sinister smile, stepping back and pulling out his phone, ready to record a video of Liu Tianyuns "fianc" being beaten up, which would certainly cause a huge uproar online! Ye Huans expression also turned cold. Dealing with such people, giving them a friendly face is a complete waste of time. "Kid, you have three seconds, kneel down and kowtow three times to the young master, and then get lost, or else..." The security guard sneered meaningfully, "Otherwise, this metal rod of mine will definitely send you to the hospital..." Bai Yu showed a look of interest. He was certain that Liu Tianyun couldnt have registered a marriage with Ye Huan, so the certificate must be fake, intended to avoid the arranged marriage and escape from the eligible men chosen by Liu Dandan, meaning himself. However, Ye Huan was appointed as Liu Tianyuns fianc by the Liu Family elder. Having her fianc kneel before him. It seemed to bring a sense of accomplishment... With this thought, Bai Yus smile grew wider. "Ill warn you one last time," Ye Huan said coldly. "Hey, do you still dare to threaten me?" The security guard laughed in exasperation. At this time, a woman got out of a taxi and approached the villa gate. "Oh, Ye Huan?" Chapter 31: He is President Liu’s Fiancé! Chapter 31: Chapter 31: He is President Lius Fianc!The security guard was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion, "Miss Tang Yao, do you know this scavenger here?" "Scavenger?" Tang Yao slightly furrowed her brows and said, "You must be mistaken. He is the... of President Liu." Before she could finish, her gaze fixed on Bai Yu standing behind the security guard and she exclaimed, "You... youre that..." Bai Yus face lit up with joy. Am I really that famous now? This beautiful stranger actually knows me? If I could get her into bed, developing her into a lover, that wouldnt be so bad... "Ahem, ahem." Bai Yu cleared his throat, nodded slightly, and gentlemanly flashed a smile, "Thats right, I am..." "President Liu showed me your photo. She said you are the one who keeps pestering her, annoying like a fly around a cesspool, and cannot be driven away - Bai Yu, right!" Tang Yaos eyebrows shot up as she coldly said, "What are you doing in Celestial Sea? Here to harass President Liu again?" With those words, Bai Yus smile froze completely on his face. "Security, quickly kick him out, he definitely has ulterior motives coming here!" Tang Yao sternly ordered, "I heard that during university he once hid in the ladies restroom all night to harass President Liu, and was only caught when a passing female student called the police." The security guards face was filled with shock, and his lips trembled. A fly in the cesspool? A shadow? Lying in wait in the womens restroom, only to be taken away by the police? This young scion? How is that possible... The security guard swallowed hard, awkwardly saying, "Miss Tang Yao, there must be some mistake, right? You arent possibly talking about this... this scavenger?" "The scavenger, you mean him?" Tang Yao pointed at Ye Huan, asking coldly. The security guard awkwardly nodded his head. Immediately, he was met with a scolding. "Nonsense." Tang Yao crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows, "This is the male master of the S-01 villa, President Lius fianc!" "Little bunny, you should change the way you address me, you should call me President Lius husband." On the side, Ye Huan took out a small red book proudly. Marriage certificate! Tang Yao was taken aback for a moment, looking at the marriage certificate, and exclaimed in surprise, "You... youve registered already?" "I couldnt help it, my charms are just too great." Ye Huan sighed, "She forcibly dragged me into the car and then into the Civil Affairs Bureau, she might even force me to make a baby at night, I had no choice!" "Pervert!" "Impossible!" Tang Yao and Bai Yu both spoke up in unison. Bai Yu gritted his teeth in anger, "Tianyun making a baby with you? Look at yourself, how can you possibly deserve Tianyun!" "Not worthy?" Ye Huan pointed at the marriage certificate, his mouth curving up, "My friend, I am Liu Tianyuns legal husband. Be it making babies or playing eighteen kinds of martial arts with her, its all perfectly legal." "This certificate is fake, dont think I dont know that!" Bai Yu said, his face twisted with anger. "Fake?" Ye Huan chuckled softly, pulling out his phone and opening the Civil Affairs Bureaus website, entering the number on the certificate, "This is fake? How could it come up in the civil affairs system if its fake?" The security guard and Bai Yu were stunned on the spot. The civil affairs system, actually has this certificate on record? This marriage certificate is actually real, not Photoshopped? Sarch* The ovlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. How is this possible! The security guards eyes widened in disbelief, his body trembling uncontrollably. What have I done? Have I offended the husband of the biggest property owner by Penglai Lakefront? Have I offended the master of the most luxurious villa? What sin have I committed! Cold sweat drenched his collar, and even in the sweltering heat of autumn, he felt a chill all over. "This... this is impossible!" Bai Yus voice trembled, "Tianyun... Tianyun could never register and marry someone like you, its impossible!" "Well, Im sorry, but we did register. Besides, Bai Yu, arent you the fly that loves to harass my wife? I see your visit to Penglai Lakefront as nothing but an attempt to go after my wife, do you really think Im that easy to bully?" Ye Huan picked up a toothpick, and with a kick, struck out. "Bang!" With a muffled sound, Bai Yu clutched his abdomen and was kicked several meters away, lying on the ground wailing incessantly. "You... you dare to... to hit me, Ill... Ill kill you!!!" Bai Yu roared in rage. He didnt know how many ribs were broken in his abdomen, but the intense pain caused cold sweat to bead on his forehead. "Little bunny, do you have the property managements phone number?" "I do, why?" "Report this security guard, say hes helping a dangerous intruder attempting to harm the husband of a property owner, the master of S-01 villa, and tried to use a weapon to assault him for a paltry sum." "Use a weapon? So heinous?" Tang Yaos face cooled down, and with a cold snort, she walked aside, dialed a number, and recounted everything that had happened. Two minutes later, after hanging up, Tang Yao said, "Ye Huan, the property management said they will give us an answer." Ye Huan nodded, his mouth curving up, and nudged the blank-faced security guard, "Whats the situation, my friend? Werent you unafraid of me making a complaint?" "I... I..." the security guards face was ashen, filled with regret. This job wasnt easy to come by; picking up discarded items from property owners could easily fetch a few hundred bucks outside. Its all his fault! Yes, it was this supposed young scion, who actually tried to harm property owners, who was here to harass them and collect trash! That guy actually turned the tables, accusing the husband of President Liu of being a scavenger? Even claiming their marriage certificate was fake? They had already verified it online, and were so familiar with President Lius secretary; how could it be fake! If he hadnt tricked me, I wouldnt have treated this "pauper" so harshly, trying to please him, only to offend this "pauper" to death! The security guard angrily stood up, his eyes filled with fire, tightly grasping an iron rod, glaring fixedly at Bai Yu. Bai Yu evidently sensed this gaze, shuddering and trembling as he said, "You... what are you doing, Im warning you, dont... dont be rash, Im..." "Youre just someone trying to invade a residential area and harass the owners!" the security guard shouted, raising the iron rod and smashing it towards Bai Yu, angrily saying, "Ill beat you to death!" Continuous loud bangs sounded as the security guard swung the iron rod, hitting Bai Yu until he was covered in blood and bruises. Bai Yus eyes looked like they were ready to close. Ye Huan, holding a phone, his mouth curving up, recorded the whole scene. Bai Yu, surely the young master of a wealthy family, now being pummeled by a security guard, surely would cause an uproar online, it would be interesting then. Tang Yao dared not look at the bloody scene any longer and hurriedly ran towards the S-01 villa. In less than two minutes, she came back with three people. Liu Dandan pushed the security guard to the ground and then anxiously shouted, "Ambulance, call an ambulance!" "Yes, yes!" The middle-aged man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly took out his phone to dial 120. "Xiao Yu, you... are you okay!" Liu Dandan held up Bai Yu, anxiously asking. Bai Yus head was bloodied, struggling to speak, pointing at Ye Huan, without uttering a single word. "What have you done!" Liu Dandan glared at Ye Huan angrily, "Do you know who he is? Hes..." "Sister, youre mistaken, I didnt do anything, it was the security guard who beat him up. You havent gone blind, have you?" Ye Huan spread his hands helplessly, "This has nothing to do with me, check the surveillance or do whatever you want." "You... you..." Liu Dandan was furious. "Mom, you saw it just now, the security guard indeed took action, what does it have to do with my husband." Liu Tianyun said lightly, "Besides, Bai Yu deserved a beating, isnt it good for him to get one?" Mom? Ye Huans mouth twitched hard. This woman is actually my mother-in-law? No wonder she looks so much like Liu Tianyun... Chapter 32 Unequal Treaties Chapter 32: Chapter 32 Unequal Treaties"How can you speak like that!" Liu Dandan stood up angrily, pointing at Ye Huan, "You dare to insult Xiao Yu, who grew up with you, for your husband?" "Mom, are you mistaken?" Liu Tianyun chuckled softly, "If I dont stand by my husband, should I support Bai Yu, that annoying fly?" "You...you..." Liu Dandan almost fainted on the spot from anger, looking at Ye Huan, "What kind of spell did you cast on my daughter? She should marry Bai Yu, not you who appeared out of nowhere!" Ye Huan was speechless, with dark lines on his forehead. Still, Ye Huan felt uncomfortable inside despite not needing to say it. Soon, both the police and ambulance arrived at the scene. The police took the security guard away and investigated the incident monitors. The security guard, handcuffed with bloodstained hands, seemed lifeless, his face as pale as a sheet of paper. Sar?h the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The ambulance carried Bai Yu away joyfully. "Go to the hospital." Liu Dandan looked at Liu Tianyun and said coldly. Liu Tianyun replied calmly, "If you want to go, go yourself." "Fine, Liu Tianyun, you really have grown wings!" Liu Dandan sneered, pulling a middle-aged man onto the ambulance. The middle-aged man smiled awkwardly, looking extremely simple and weak, allowing her to drag him onto the vehicle. Ye Huans eyes narrowed into slits, his expression growing serious. He clearly saw the subtle smile at the corners of the middle-aged mans mouth and the sarcasm in his eyes. This man is definitely not who he appears to be. Having fought in the Dark World for years, Ye Huan knew well that someone so duplicitous was certainly not a good person! ... S-01 Villa sits on an island in the middle of Penglai Lake, connected to the shore by a redwood bridge. The villa is surrounded by various plants, creating a pleasant scenery. Upon closer inspection, the villa isnt large, only two stories high, even smaller than the other villas in the neighborhood, but it offers tranquility. "Sign it." As soon as they entered the villa, Liu Tianyun took out a document from the foyer. Ye Huan took the document in surprise, and then his face darkened. "Cohabitation agreement: if the man violates, he shall face legal consequences." "The man is prohibited from making any physical contact with the woman at home, even unintentionally." "The mans activity space is confined to the first floor, forbidden from going to the second floor for any reason." "If the man violates the agreement and the woman unintentionally hurts him in a panic, she will be exempted from all legal responsibility." "..." Ye Huans mouth twitched hard. Is this an agreement? Its blatantly an unequal treaty! It can be described as "losing dignity and sovereignty"! I cant sign it! "I wont sign it!" Ye Huan declared righteously, "I refuse to sign. This agreement is too unfair." Liu Tianyun said nothing, pointing at the door. The implication was obvious: if you dont sign, you can leave now. Leave? Where to? Am I crazy to leave a good villa and go sleep on the street! Ye Huan, furious, gnashing his teeth, asked, "I have a question. What happens if you violate this agreement?" "Me violate? These agreements are all directed at you, with no restrictions on the woman." Liu Tianyun said blandly. "Not true!" Ye Huan grinned slyly, "What if you forcibly drag me upstairs, into your room? And if you fall in love with me and want to forcefully make babies, wouldnt I be at a disadvantage?" Liu Tianyuns gaze turned icy cold in an instant, and the air seemed to freeze. "Swish, swish, swish." Ye Huan hurriedly signed the agreement, then whistled cheerfully, strolling into the villa like nothing happened. Seeing the agreement signed, Liu Tianyuns expression slightly softened. Tang Yao sighed helplessly as she watched them. Is this how a married couple should be? Not being enemies is already not bad. "President, this is the proposal from the Product Department." Tang Yao placed the documents on the coffee table, "Since only the proportion of raw materials is changed and the two additional herbs are not scarce, Meiying can resume production in three days and is expected to hit the market in two weeks." Liu Tianyun nodded, signing the document, she said, "Tell the Marketing Department to announce that due to the delayed launch of Meiying, we deeply apologize to our consumers. As compensation, after launch, the product price will be reduced by 20 yuan, and a buy-3-get-1-free offer will be available for the first batch of pre-orders." "Understood." Tang Yao nodded. Ye Huan poured three cups of tea and placed them on the coffee table, cursing silently in his heart. No wonder they say capitalists are the root of all evil, and they are right! The new formulas cost drops by 20%, lowering the price should not be just 20 yuan, but could well reach 40. But with Tianyuns announcement, they could gain 20 yuan more profit, and the free one in a buy-3-get-1 offer could be covered by the profit from the first three, allowing a quick market takeover, making consumers feel genuine sincerity. Truly killing three birds with one stone. Old fox! "Honey, a woman being too smart isnt necessarily a good thing." Ye Huan pouted. "Feudalistic. Also, you should carefully review the cohabitation agreement." Liu Tianyun sipped her tea, "It states that calling me wife incurs a 50-yuan fine." "Youre talking nonsense, theres no such clause." Ye Huans forehead was full of black lines. "Ha." Liu Tianyun sneered, taking out the agreement and pointing to the very small print at the bottom like an ant, "Cant see such big text?" That line indeed says calling her wife incurs a 50-yuan fine, and without a magnifying glass, its hard to see. "So big?" Ye Huans face darkened, "Its just barely smaller than an ant. Is this humanly readable text? Are you going to carry a magnifying glass?" The next moment, Ye Huans face darkened. Liu Tianyun took a magnifying glass out of her uniform pocket and tossed it on the coffee table. After a long silence. "You win." Ye Huan gritted his teeth, raising a thumbs up. The satisfaction on Liu Tianyuns face was noticeable, as she extended her left hand. "What for?" "Fine, 50 yuan." "Ive got no money, not a single cent." "Then Ill deduct it from your wages next month, the security captains base salary is six thousand, Ill inform the finance department to deduct fifty yuan." Liu Tianyun said with satisfaction, pointing to the end of the first floor, "The room next to the bathroom is yours, I emphasize again, no going upstairs." After speaking, she turned and went to the second floor, with Tang Yao following behind. Ye Huans face was black as Bao Qingtians. They even deduct 50? With no money, they deduct from wages? Ridiculous. Dealing with this woman, one must be a thousand percent cautious, or she will strip you to your underwear! Arriving at the end of the first floor, the room and the bathroom face each other, as he opened the door and entered. The room was very tidy, the pillow and bedding were obviously new, and the daily necessities were neatly arranged on the desk. Just as Ye Huan was about to wash up and go to sleep, the phone rang. "Whos calling with a harassment call in the middle of the night?" Ye Huan took a closer look, raising an eyebrow. Caller: Damn Dog Master! Chapter 33 Conspiracy Chapter 33: Chapter 33 Conspiracy"Hello, my dear little Ye, long time no see!" "Old man, cut the crap." Ye Huan complained: "Interrupting someones wedding night, youd be drowned in a pig cage in ancient times." "Wedding night? I calculated it, and I know you were forced to sign some unequal treaty and are now alone in an empty room, am I wrong?" If anyone else heard the "old man" voice, they would definitely think Ye Huan was insane. Such an innocent childs voice couldnt be further from the rough old man. "Its all your fault, you never did any good, tricked me before, and now youre even messing with my lifelong affair?" Ye Huan was so angry he was grinding his teeth, "You dont know, that woman is ridiculous. Shes worth billions, but fines me fifty yuan. I didnt have the money, and she wouldnt waive it, insisting on deducting it from my salary." "You dont get it, the girl is just thrifty and good at housekeeping." The old man said, his tone turning meaningful, "Anyway, youre not losing out. Ive seen the girls personal info. Shes pretty and rich, has a great figure, and is good at having kids, so hurry up..." "Kids? That needs her cooperation. With her current stance, if I dared to touch a hair on her head, shed chop me with a cleaver." At this point, Ye Huan paused and tentatively suggested, "How about you arrange for this marriage to be canceled? Even sending me back to the Dark World would be fine." "No way!" The old man said resolutely, "If this marriage is canceled, what about my bet with others? Wouldnt I become a man of no credence? Can you take responsibility?" "Damn, a bet? You sacrificed my life happiness for a bet?" "Otherwise?" A long silence followed. "Master, how about you and that dog at the village entrance both take a step back, it stops being a dog, and you stop being a human?" "I see youre itching for a beating." The old man smirked, "Im done talking to you, I have to go watch Cuihua take a bath. You, just stay well in Celestial Sea, wait until you have two kids with Liu Tianyun, then Ill teach you the skills you want." "Are you serious?" Ye Huan suddenly got excited, gripping his phone tightly, "If youre lying, Ill never let it go." "When have I ever lied to you." "You tricked me into going to the Dark World, tricked me into coming to Celestial Sea, tricked me into..." "Enough, enough!" The old man, losing face, quickly interrupted Ye Huan, "I should remind you, there are many threats hidden around Liu Tianyun, protect her well. Also, just need a certain opportunity, then even if you want a divorce, shell be begging you not to..." As soon as he finished speaking, he hung up the phone. Ye Huan was speechless, but felt quite satisfied! Indeed! With my charming personality, conquering that ice queens heart should be a piece of cake, right? Then have a couple of kids with her, and Master will teach me his true skills, awesome! Ill be on top of the world in no time! ... Celestial Sea City, First Peoples Hospital. Bai Yus head was wrapped in bandages, and his face was so gloomy it could drip water. He had smashed everything in the room, from vases to furniture. As the second young master of the Bai Family, born with a silver spoon, when had he ever suffered such humiliation? Beaten into the ICU by a lowly security guard with an iron rod? And the video was even spread online, going viral? The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Bai Yu slammed his brand-new iPhone 13 Plus onto the ground. The screen instantly cracked, yet the videos title was still visible. "Shocking! Young master of a certain family caught stealing in a villa district, beaten senseless by a security guard!" The phone kept playing Bai Yus pleas and cries. This video, uploaded only five hours ago, had already amassed fifty million views, "proudly" topping the charts. "Xiao Yu, dont get too angry..." "How can I not be angry, my beating video has been seen by tens of millions!" Bai Yu yelled furiously, livid. Liu Dandan sighed, "That security guard has already been taken away by the police, with conclusive evidence, hell definitely spend the rest of his life in prison..." Sar?h the N?velFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "His lifetime as a security guard is incomparable to my dignity!" Bai Yu was livid to the point of bursting, "And what about that Ye Huan, where is he?" "Him?" Liu Dandan looked embarrassed, "He went to S-01 with Tianyun." "What!" Bai Yu was shocked, "Then... then Tianyun? She didnt come to the hospital to see me?" Liu Dandan shook her head awkwardly, "She said today is her wedding night, she doesnt have time." No time? Wedding night? Ye Huan said hed make babies with Liu Tianyun. Could it be that they are... Bai Yus face turned ashen, the goddess in his heart, pure and unsullied, was actually going to be conquered by that suddenly appeared kid? "Xiao Yu, dont worry." Liu Dandan said seriously, "As Tianyuns mother, Ill firmly stand by your side." "What good does it do for you to stand by me, Liu Tianyun and her husband are already having their wedding night!" Bai Yu clenched his fists tightly, "And besides, this is the marriage arranged by that old bastard Liu Aimin, if Liu Tianyun herself doesnt want to break it, what can we do!" Liu Dandan chuckled, her eyes full of cunning, "Xiao Yu, youre just angry and confused. Dont we know Tianyuns character? Do you think shed really be conquered by Ye Huan? Thats absolutely impossible. Besides, dont we know what my dads situation is like? At that time..." Bai Yu paused, frowning, deep in thought. Liu Tianyun, with her cold temperament, never showing any man a good face, its logically impossible for her to become a real couple with Ye Huan and be conquered by him. Her words were probably just to provoke him. And that old man LiuLiu Aimin, probably wont last long. Forcing Liu Tianyun to fulfill the childhood engagement before dying? Really restless even in death, damn it. Bai Yu snorted, "Whats Liu Aimins condition now?" "In the final stages of illness." Liu Dandan chuckled, raising a hand gracefully, "What weve obtained, I heard its banned in the western Dark World. Even if he had ten lives, it wouldnt be enough. I reckon, no more than a month, and hell drop dead suddenly." Listening to this, Bai Yu sat back on the bed, nodding in satisfaction. Besides Liu Aimin, the Liu Family were all a bunch of incompetent wastrels. The only one with any accomplishments was Liu Tianyun, and shes a woman. After this incident, not only to make Liu Tianyun submit, but also to take everything from her! "Then Xiao Yu, about the Liu Family..." "Dont worry Aunt Dan, just as weve discussed, the Liu Family will be under your control on the surface then." Liu Dandans expression lit up, speaking with meaning, "Xiao Yu, if I can really control the Liu Family, Ill make sure Tianyun ends up in your bed..." "Oh? Then thank you in advance, Aunt Dan..." Chapter 34: Major Client Visits Chapter 34: Chapter 34: Major Client VisitsThe next day, morning. Ye Huan, full of black lines, parked this Rolls-Royce Phantom in the parking lot. From Penglai Lakefront to Tianyun International, Brother Huan wanted to say something along the way, but he just couldnt find the chance! Liu Tianyun and Tang Yao were discussing work-related matters the entire journey, either figuring out how to "calculate" consumers or plotting schemes against competitors. Too devious! "Good morning, Captain!" As soon as they walked into the first-floor lobby, ten security guards stood up solemnly and saluted respectfully. "Are you new here?" "Yes, were the newly hired security staff today," the guards said in unison. Ye Huan was surprised. It seems Tianyun International offers good treatment for security staff. It hasnt been long since Wang Jian and those security guards were fired, and theyve almost recruited a full team again. "Do your work well, we still need a deputy captain right now. Whoever works hard, Ill promote them." As soon as these words were uttered, the security guards looked delighted. Deputy captain, that means an extra thousand in monthly salary, much more power, comfortable! "Captain Ye, please." The security guards competed to welcome Ye Huan to the security office. At this moment, a guard reminded, "Captain Ye, your wife has been waiting for you inside for a while, I poured her a cup of tea." "My wife?" Ye Huan was puzzled, opened the office door, and immediately gave the guard a thumbs-up, with a determined face: "Do your work well, youre the shining star of the security team." "Yes, yes, yes!" The guard nodded and bowed with a smile, looking fawning. The sound of the door closing, the other guards were full of envy, jealousy, and hatred. Missed the chance, its painful! "Sister Zhang, your arrival truly brings glory to the security office." Ye Huans mouth curved up: "No, not Sister Zhang, its Madam Ye." "Phuh, cant be serious, quit calling me that!" Zhang Huimin blushed and snapped: "Ive been waiting for you for half an hour, why are you so late?" Ye Huan sighed and said, "Its all because of you, Sister Zhang. I dreamt about you all night, couldnt bear to get up! So, ended up sleeping late, and now Im so late." "Stop talking nonsense!" Zhang Huimins face instantly turned red, she was very embarrassed, her hands didnt know where to put them. Seeing her like this, Ye Huan chuckled and said, "This time Ill forgive you, Sister Zhang. Next time dont let me dream about you randomly." "You glib-tongued man, dreaming about me, yet you didnt tell me about your transfer. Made me find out after much inquiry that youre in the security department now." Zhang Huimins eyes and tone were full of resentment. "Thats indeed my fault. Little Ye apologizes to you here." Ye Huan said earnestly and then gave a standard ninety-degree bow. Zhang Huimin burst out laughing and waved her hand: "Stop being cheeky, I came this time because..." She took out an insulated iron box from a plastic bag, blushing slightly, and said, "I... I made too much breakfast, so I brought you some. Have you eaten?" "I havent, but, Sister Zhang, is this really just extra you made?" Ye Huan grinned, asking with a smile. "Yes... yes, what, do you think I made it especially for you? No way such a good thing would happen!" Zhang Huimin said nonchalantly, though her increasingly red face betrayed her. Brother Huan didnt expose it, sat down, and opened the lid of the insulated box. The aroma of the food instantly spread out, and the dishes were clearly meticulously made and thoughtfully plated. "How does it taste?" Zhang Huimin had a small look of anticipation in her eyes. "How to say, its hard to put into words." Ye Huan sighed, frowning. "Ah? Isnt... isnt it tasty?" Zhang Huimins mood inevitably dropped a bit. "Not tasty? Who said that? Ill break his leg!" Ye Huan slapped the table and stood up, "Its hard to describe such delicious food in words!" "Really?" Zhang Huimin looked delighted. "Of course its true, whoever saves up eight lifetimes of luck and can marry Sister Zhang would definitely hit the jackpot, not only a great beauty but also a five-star chef!" Ye Huan said with a straight face, Zhang Huimins face was so red it could drip blood. "Little Ye, you... you stop talking nonsense!" "Im really not talking nonsense, isnt this the truth?" Ye Huan said with a grin. Zhang Huimins heart was pounding wildly, and her eyes started darting around. Just at that moment, her phone rang. "I... Ill take a call!" Zhang Huimin took out her phone, got up and quickly walked aside. After answering the call, Zhang Huimins face was full of incredulity. "I understand, Im going up now, please let her wait for a moment." Zhang Huimin hung up the phone, grabbed her bag and said, "Little Ye, I have a case to discuss, need to head up first." With that, she briskly left the security office. ... Tianyun International, Sales Department. As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, Zhang Huimin headed straight to the meeting room. "Knock knock knock." After knocking, Zhang Huimin gently opened the door and saw Su Qingqing serving tea. Zhao Yongle was sweating profusely, "talking" to a black woman across from him, but the more they talked, the worse the womans expression became. "Zhang Huimin, you finally came." Su Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief. "Sorry, Minister." Zhang Huimin smiled awkwardly, "Whats the situation here?" "This is the client, but..." Su Qingqing said helplessly, "But we cant understand the language shes speaking. This is your SSS-class sales task, so you better try your best." Cant understand her language? Zhang Huimin was full of confusion. She remembered that when negotiating the deal, the person on the phone spoke Huaxia language. Moreover, this task was taken on when she had just completed an A-level task a year ago, feeling very cocky, but the other party didnt show any intention to buy, and now shes directly visited the company? What is going on? With a puzzled mind, she sat down. "Hello?" "heello?" Zhang Huimin tried countless ways to say hello, but still received no response from the black woman. After a long silence. "Kabuda my %%..." The black woman slapped the table, looking furious. "Ah? Can... can you speak English or Huaxia language?" Zhang Huimin asked awkwardly. "*&...The kawa." "Bang bang bang." The black woman furiously slapped the table, her face looked terrible. Zhang Huimin didnt respond, because she couldnt understand a single word the black woman was saying. "Zhang Huimin, whats going on here!" Zhao Yongle sternly scolded, "You should do the work youre capable of. You took this task, yet you cant even communicate with the client normally. Arent you wasting the companys client resources? If the company loses this big client because of you, Ill hold you accountable!" "I... I cant do anything about it. The person who communicated with me then was... was speaking Huaxia!" Zhang Huimins face turned ugly. Sear?h the n?vel_Fire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "No worries, I asked Secretary Tang to get a few translators over, lets wait for a bit." Su Qingqing sighed helplessly. She wasnt in a good mood, as this client wasnt bringing an ordinary SSS sales task. The purchase amount was as high as 20 million Huaxia Coins! And the possibility of a long-term cooperation with the other party was high. If this client couldnt be secured, it would be a huge loss for Tianyun International. Zhao Yongle obviously knew this too, and he was overjoyed inside. "Zhang Huimin, do you realize the trouble your recklessness can bring to our company!" Zhao Yongle twisted his neck, sneering, "If the client gives up cooperating with Tianyun International because of you, as per rules, I have the right to report to the HR department to have you fired!" "You..." Zhang Huimins face turned anxious, "Team Leader Zhao, how can you say that, this wasnt my fault." "Not your fault, is it our fault then?" Zhao Yongle sneered aloud. He felt elated inside. He was initially worried about not being able to fire Zhang Huimin, but now the opportunity presented itself, feels so good! Chapter 35: They can’t, but that doesn’t mean I can’t. Chapter 35: Chapter 35: They cant, but that doesnt mean I cant.Before long, the translators Tang Yao called in arrived at the meeting room. "Minister Su." They nodded and greeted. "This lady is our important client. See if you can communicate with her. We wont disturb you." With that, Su Qingqing left the meeting room with Zhang Huimin and Zhao Yongle. "Zhang Huimin, are you sure the person who negotiated with you spoke Huaxia?" In front of the meeting room door, Su Qingqing asked. Zhang Huimin nodded without hesitation: "Im sure, because this was the only SSS task I took on myself, I remember it very clearly." Su Qingqing nodded, asking no further questions. This SSS task indeed pointed to a company located in Africa. "Heh, I think youre just being unreasonable and lying! The person negotiating over the phone spoke Huaxia, but now the person who came is speaking gibberish? It doesnt match at all!" Zhao Yongle crossed his arms and sneered, "Ill tell you, if this deal falls through, it doesnt matter if youre lying or not, Ill make sure to get rid of this troublemaker for the company!" He looked smug. But the next moment, a curse rang out, and his face instantly darkened. "Team Leader Zhao, why does your tone stink more than the pig manure on you?" The elevator door opened and Ye Huan pinched his nose as he walked out, waving the air with disgust: "The air smells of pig manure. Team Leader Zhao, do you live just to pollute the air?" Zhao Yongle turned around, instantly enraged and swore: "Ye Huan, what are you, a security guard, doing in our sales department? Get lost!" He looked furious. Since the last incident, he had nightmares of that old sow every night and now had a serious mental block. On top of that, he always felt covered in the stench of the sow. Walking down the street, when passersby pointed at him, he wished the ground would swallow him up! "Oh?" Ye Huan said in surprise, "Security guards cant come to the sales department? Did you set that rule? On the contrary, your pollution of the companys air is seriously undermining the employees work enthusiasm. As a security guard, I have the right to kick you out of the company." "Kick me out? Try it!" Zhao Yongle was full of anger, even rolling up his sleeves, looking ready to fight. Ye Huan cracked his knuckles, smiling: "Your skins itching for it, Ill oblige." The cracking sound of his knuckles made Zhao Yongle shiver involuntarily. "Stop arguing! What time is it, and youre still arguing here? This is a company, if you want to argue, do it outside." Su Qingqings face was grim. Just then, the translators appointed by Tang Yao walked out of the meeting room, beads of sweat on their foreheads, looking extremely embarrassed. "Minister Su, we are unable to assist; we tried communicating with eight different languages but none worked." "Huh?" Su Qingqings face became urgent, "Did you at least recognize what language she is speaking?" The translators shook their heads and said, "We cant determine it, but it is certain that it is a language from some African tribe." "Tribal language?" Su Qingqings face turned incredibly bad. Many tribes in Africa have their own languages, definitely no fewer than a thousand of them! Getting a university professor to help with translation is no longer an option. While there are professors in universities who specialize in African languages, no professor would burden themselves with learning over a thousand African tribal languages.

Zhao Yongle cursed, but couldnt suppress the joy on his face: "Youve made our company lose such a big deal, how do you intend to atone? Pack up and prepare to go through the resignation process!" "How is this my fault!" Zhang Huimin looked anxious. "I blame you!" Zhao Yongle looked smug, "Minister Su, given the circumstances, according to company policy, shouldnt she be dismissed?" Su Qingqing didnt say anything, acquiescing silently. Not just Zhang Huimin, if she, the head of the sales department, were to blow a client of such significance, even if not dismissed, she would at least be demoted to a regular employee. "Haha!" Zhao Yongle laughed out loud, gleefully saying, "Zhang Huimin, will you resign and apologize yourself, or do you want me to fire you? Pick one." His eyes were full of disdain. Its as if he was saying: Do you regret crossing me, Zhao Yongle? Zhang Huimin pressed her lips tightly, feeling very downcast. "I... Ill resign..." Before she could finish, Ye Huan shouted, "Who said shes resigning? You think you can fire her just like that, who are you kidding?" "I am that powerful!" Zhao Yongle sneered: "Shes blown a 20-million-dollar deal, and I can fire her!" "Who says its blown?" "The translators cant communicate with the client, isnt that blowing it?" Ye Huan chuckled, saying, "Just because they cant doesnt mean I cant." "Hahaha!" Zhao Yongle laughed uproariously: "You mean to say, you, a security guard, can understand or speak an African tribal language? Hahaha!" "Hey, security guard colleague, stop boasting. African tribal languages are some of the most obscure and difficult in the world, with over a thousand language branches!" "Unless theyre a native or a professor specializing in a single tribal language, no one can understand those languages." "Weve been doing translation for a long time, and we cant understand a word she said, let alone you, a security guard." The translators looked at him with disdain. Theyve seen a lot of boasters, but a security guard from the lower stratum boasting, this was the first time theyd seen. Su Qingqing frowned, saying, "Ye Huan, go back to the security department, dont show off here." She also thought Ye Huan was just speaking big words, unhappy at the moment. After all, tribal languages are not something the average person can grasp, its simply unrealistic. "Little Ye, dont bother with me, you... you go back first." Zhang Huimin advised in a low voice. "I said I really can, its just tribal language." Ye Huan laughed a little. "You dont have to help me..." Zhang Huimin felt touched, knowing Ye Huan wanted to help her, but she was aware of the difficulty of tribal languages. She wanted to continue advising Ye Huan, but Ye Huan had already entered the meeting room. Zhao Yongle looked on with disdain, shouting loudly: "Ye Huan, if you cant close the deal, Ill report you to the CEOs office; then, you and Zhang Huimin will both get lost from the company!" His heart was filled with delight, as hed been worrying about not having a way to kick Ye Huan out of the company. After this incident, he could kick both of them out of Tianyun International, avenging the earlier grudge, haha! "This fools so stubborn, doesnt listen to advice..." Su Qingqing gritted her teeth and followed into the meeting room. The translators and Zhao Yongle, wanting to see Ye Huan make a fool of himself, also went in. But as soon as they entered the meeting room, they were dumbfounded... This... this security guard... Really understood the obscure and complicated African tribal language? How is that possible! Chapter 36: Ye Huan, I will never share the same sky with you! Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Ye Huan, I will never share the same sky with you!"Akaku..." "Haha, Kuhara%#" Ye Huan was smiling while chatting with the black woman. sea??h th Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. They were speaking in a language that everyone else couldnt understand, yet they conversed smoothly. The black woman no longer showed her previous angry demeanor, occasionally covering her mouth with a light laugh, and her delicate eyebrows relaxed. Everyone was stunned, collectively gasping in disbelief at what was happening before their eyes. The commotion at the door drew the attention of Ye Huan and the black woman. When the black woman saw Zhao Yongle, her smile vanished, replaced by a look of disgust. "Oh, Team Leader Zhao is here?" Ye Huans lips curled up, "Could you please get out for a moment, Team Leader Zhao?" "Get out?" Zhao Yongle snapped back to reality, glaring angrily, "What right do you have to tell me to get out? What authority do you have to make me leave!" "Its not me telling you to get out." Ye Huan looked at Stella, the black woman. Stella gave Zhao Yongle a cold stare, raising her middle finger: "FUCK, its Li you%..." Zhao Yongle couldnt understand her words and looked puzzled. "Miss Stella dislikes you very much, thats her telling you to get out." Ye Huan smiled as he spoke. "Youre talking nonsense, how could she possibly dislike me!" Zhao Yongle cursed before looking obsequiously at Stella, giving a gentlemanly bow, "Hello..." Before he could finish, Stella left a slap mark on his face. Stunned by the slap, Zhao Yongle couldnt understand why Stella disliked him so much. "Team Leader Zhao, Stella said you smell like pig manure, which makes her very uncomfortable. She also mentioned if you dont get out, the deal is off." Ye Huan spoke seriously, "Team Leader Zhao, please think twice. If theres a problem with this major deal because of you, Ill have to report it to the executive office. Then you will be held responsible." As soon as he finished, everyone in the reception room took a deep sniff, their expressions changing before stepping back a few paces. In no time, Zhao Yongle turned into a plague-like presence. Because they really smelled a faint pig manure odor coming from him! "You... I..." Zhao Yongles face turned beet red, wishing he could dig a hole and bury himself in it. Awkward beyond belief, he turned to leave. "Hold on!" Ye Huan stopped Zhao Yongle, speaking calmly, "Team Leader Zhao, I must remind you, Miss Stella asked you to roll out, not walk out. Do you understand the literal meaning of roll?" "Ye Huan, dont go too far!" Zhao Yongle gritted his teeth, angrily mumbling in a deep voice. "Fuck, you are pig!" Stella pointed her middle finger again. "Did you hear that? Miss Stella is very displeased with you!" Ye Huan sighed, "If you ruin this deal, Ill have to truthfully report to the executive office. I hope by then Team Leader Zhao wont roll out of Tianyun International..." Without waiting for him to finish, Zhao Yongle immediately lay down and "rolled" out of the reception room. Being fired from Tianyun International was something he absolutely couldnt accept! Zhao Yongles anger made his arm veins bulge; he never expected Ye Huan to truly know tribal languages and converse with Stella so fluently. Moreover, the threat he gave to Ye Huan and Zhang Huimin was thrown back at him in turn, making him the "victim"! Ye Huan, I will never forgive you! ... After the contract was signed, Miss Stella nodded in satisfaction. Su Qingqing also looked pleased. A big deal worth twenty million was not something that came around often. Thankfully, there was someone here who could... interpret African tribal languages. Su Qingqings face turned slightly red, feeling a bit embarrassed. This rascal, clearly just a security guard, actually knows African tribal languages. How impressive! Zhang Huimin was overjoyed as well. Having successfully closed the deal meant she didnt have to worry about being fired, right? But why was it a Huaxia-speaking woman discussing the deal with her earlier? Zhang Huimin tugged at Ye Huans sleeve, tentatively asking, "Little... Little Ye, could you ask Miss Stella something? The person who was discussing cooperation with me earlier clearly spoke Huaxia, so why was it her now?" "I grew up in Huaxia, naturally, I can speak Huaxia. The reason I spoke tribal language this time was to test Tianyun Internationals ability to handle unexpected situations, and now Im very satisfied." Stella spoke in extremely fluent Huaxia, which left everyone else in the reception room stunned. Ye Huan was slightly surprised too. "Oh no." Stella glanced at the time, picked up her bag, and said, "I still have to catch a flight, so Ill be leaving now. Its been a pleasure cooperating with your company." "We are also delighted to cooperate with your esteemed company." Su Qingqing smiled as she rose, shaking hands with Stella. After Stella left, the reception room quieted down. After a long silence, Ye Huan picked up the contract on the table and sighed, "Oh my, how did this contract get settled so easily?" Upon hearing this, the translators eyes darted around frantically, their faces extremely awkward. How could this security guard be so impressive? Not only could he translate the obscure and difficult African tribal language, but he also successfully signed the contract. This is outrageous! "Oh, esteemed translators, you havent left yet?" Ye Huan stood up and said in surprise, "Wait, how can I call you master translators? Content that I, a mere security guard, can translate, yet you specialized experts cant understand a single wordyoure simply a disgrace to the translation world." "We... we still have things to do, so well be going now..." The translators said in unison and slunk out of the reception room. Their faces flushed red, yet they couldnt utter a word of rebuttal, knowing that this small security guard could decipher what they couldnt. ... Tianyun International Sales Department, Department Heads office. "So, tell me, how do you know African tribal languages?" Su Qingqing sipped her tea, sitting on the sofa. "Oh my. Not bad, Minister Su, just yesterday Xiao Ze released something new, and youve already gotten your hands on it?" Ye Huan looked at the computer screen, grinning wickedly, "Could it be, you called me here just to watch it together?" "Watch your charm!" Su Qingqings face was full of shame and anger, "Im asking you a question, answer it seriously." "Whats the point in asking; the contract is settled, just wait for the money to roll in, right?" Ye Huan curled his lips; if he were to say that during his time in the Dark World he mastered hundreds of languages for murder and looting, wouldnt that scare her to death? "You..." Su Qingqing looked displeased but didnt press further. A few seconds later, the sound from the computer speakers turned blush-inducing, Su Qingqings pretty face turned red as she arose and pressed the computers shutdown button directly. "Minister Su, interrupting someone elses movie time, in ancient times, youd be drowned..." "Im here for legitimate business this time!" "What legitimate business? Watching movies together, or some hands-on action? If its hands-on, then come sit here..." Before he could finish, a weapon emitting a cold gleam appeared in Su Qingqings hand. Ye Huan quickly covered his mouth, refraining from saying more. "Dare to talk nonsense again, and Ill cut you with these scissors!" Su Qingqing said viciously, slamming the scissors onto the table. "Concealed weapon, youre tough." Adhering to the principle that a good man doesnt fight with a woman, brother Huan ground his teeth and swallowed his anger. "Good you know Im tough, consider your consequences if you provoke me again." Su Qingqing said smugly, "I called you here to tell you, I have a class reunion tonight..." "Not going." Ye Huan said firmly. "Why not?" "I cant leave my wife home alone." "What! You have a wife?" Su Qingqing exclaimed, clenching her teeth and raising the scissors, "You have a wife, yet you dared to lie to me saying it was your first kiss? Ill destroy you!!" "Oh heck!" Ye Huan hastily dodged an attack and hid in a corner: "Dont come any closer, Im known as the Celestial Sea Cutting King, when I lose it, Ill even cut myself." "Ill give you two choices." "One, I destroy you!" "Two, go with me to the class reunion!" Su Qingqing suppressed her anger, speaking in a cold tone. Hearing Ye Huan had a wife, she felt genuinely uncomfortable, sensing a great loss. Her first kiss was actually taken by a "married old man"?! This "old man" even lied saying it was his first kiss? Why doesnt he just go die! "Minister Su, your class reunion, its not necessary for me to go with you, is it?" Ye Huan was filled with exasperation. "At this class reunion, everyone will bring partners, only I wont, what choice do I have? Moreover, since the gathering is hosted by Xie Feng, if I dont bring someone, hed definitely pester me to death." "You mean, you need me as a shield?" "What else?" "This..." Ye Huan pondered, scratching his chin, looking hesitant, "Accompanying another woman to a class reunion gives me a real sense of guilt." Su Qingqing gritted her teeth and looked wronged. "Guilt, my foot! You kissed me twice already, whats wrong with being my shield!" Chapter 37: Education? Chapter 37: Chapter 37: Education?Ye Huan was exasperated, storming out of the ministers office like a shooting star. "Clang!" From the office came the crisp sound of a vase shattering. "Whats going on? Didnt I agree? Why is she still breaking things? Is that womans brain alright!" Ye Huan twitched the corner of his mouth. Actually, Brother Huan didnt want to agree, but with that stance just now, if he didnt, Su Qingqing would have fought desperately. Who could withstand that! ... As one of Huaxias most developed cities, Tianhai City was still brilliantly lit at night, full of flashy nightlife. Under the neon lights beside the road, who knows how many dirty things were happening. As one of the most popular nightclubs in Tianhai City, Emperor KTV already had a bustling scene, with handsome men and beautiful women flowing in and out continuously. "Why the long face? Coming to a class reunion with me, do you have to be so reluctant?" Su Qingqing raised her eyebrows, her face almost written with displeasure. "Sigh~" Ye Huan sighed, "I hid it so well, and you still found out." "Hide, my ass!" Su Qingqing gritted her teeth, "Even if youre upset, hold it in. If you keep looking like that when we go in, Ill cut off your third leg!" Brother Huans face darkened, feeling a chill beneath his legs. The ancients were really right; a man can provoke dogs and tigers, but the one thing he cant provoke is a woman! The two walked up the steps, and a well-mannered waiter came over. "Sir, Miss, do you have a reservation?" the waiter smiled. Su Qingqing nodded, "Imperial Court." "Oh!" The waiter suddenly realized and smiled, "So its Young Master Xies classmates, please follow me." The Imperial Court, as its name suggests, was extremely luxurious. The floor was covered with a Kiris high-end carpet worth millions, the walls were coated with a thick layer of gold powder, and even the sofas were made of crocodile skin. The wine cabinet against the wall was filled with all kinds of precious red wines for guests to take and enjoy. The men and women inside the private room were constantly clinking glasses and chatting, appearing very happy and harmonious. "Our class beauty is here!" As Ye Huan and Su Qingqing walked into the private room, someone shouted, drawing many eyes. A pretty woman in a dress came running over. "Qingqing, its been three years, and youve only gotten more beautiful!" The woman circled Su Qingqing twice, pinched her chin in thought, and said lewdly, "The scale of those has gotten bigger too." "Huang Qiqing, you perverted wolf!" Su Qingqing blushed and spat. sea??h th N??eFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Im only perverted towards you!" Huang Qiqing laughed, looked at Ye Huan, and extended her hand, "Hello, Im Qingqings best friend Huang Qiqing, you must be Qingqings boyfriend? Truly impressive, tall and mighty, no wonder you could win Qingqing over." "I didnt expect to be so low-key and still be discovered by you." Ye Huan said with a serious face, making Huang Qiqing burst out laughing. "Qingqing, your boyfriend is quite interesting." "Of course, my boyfriend has to be up to par!" Su Qingqing said proudly. With her display, Brother Huan certainly drew in a lot of animosity. The class beauty, unattainable through four years of university, was now seemingly with a "bumpkin" man, its irritating! "A security guard?" Huang Qiqing noticed Ye Huans armband and "accidentally" blurted out, then quickly covered her mouth. Others stepped forward to take a closer look at Ye Huans armband. Due to the dim lighting in the private room and the distance, no one noticed what was inscribed on Ye Huans armband before. Now, they all saw it clearly! Tianyun Group - Security Personnel! The words were unmistakably clear. They looked at each other, then their eyes filled with contempt, their mouths curling into sarcastic smiles. "Our class beauty sure has a knack for picking partners..." "Wasnt Su Qingqing the top student in our class? Logically, her IQ is quite high, so how has it suddenly dropped so much..." "Yeah, with her looks, finding a handsome and wealthy man should be a piece of cake, how did she end up with a security guard..." The female classmates looked at Su Qingqing, the smugness in their eyes utterly undisguised. Back in school, they were extremely envious of Su Qingqings appearance, but now they felt very satisfied! After all, even if they werent as good-looking, the men they found were a hundred times better than hers! She actually found a security guard from the lower society, how utterly ridiculous! "I cant believe you look down on security guards! As the old saying goes, Huaxias security guards are soldiers when they pick up guns!" Ye Huan retorted, "Besides, without security guards, who would ensure your safety and property, such an honorable profession, how could you look down on it?" This remark caused a burst of laughter. The women were laughing so hard they were in tears. Their fat-laden male companions beside them, the mocking curve on their mouths intensified. "Qingqing, your boyfriend is really... really humorous." Huang Qiqing wiped away tears of laughter. The sneering and sarcasm around made Su Qingqings face turn dark green, and now the burst of laughter felt like she lost all her face. "Come with me!" Su Qingqing said through gritted teeth, dragging Ye Huan to the private rooms corner, whispering angrily, "Ye Huan, are you crazy, saying all that!" "Im correcting their wrong conceptions, being a security guard is a legitimate profession, doesnt rely on stealing or robbing, whats so shameful about it?" "If you can educate them, pigs could climb trees, just talk less, got it?" Su Qingqing said with a face full of disappointment. "Got it, got it." Ye Huan nodded, munching on the sunflower seeds on the table. The scene quickly quieted down, and no one looked at the private room corner again. Soon, the private room door opened again. "Hello, Young Master Xie!" Everyone stood up, greeted with respectful faces. "Hello, its been a long time." Xie Feng smiled and waved. "Hello, Young Master Xie, Im the chairman of XX company, heres my business card..." "Young Master Xie, Im the general manager of XX, heres my business card..." Those middle-aged greasy uncles were all fawningly handing out their business cards. Originally, with their status as businessmen, they disdained attending so-called class reunions with their mistresses. But this gathering was different; the host was the second son of the Xie familyXie Feng! The Xie family is a first-class family in Tianhai City. If they could gain favor, their companies would surely skyrocket. As Xie Feng accepted the business cards, he glanced around the crowd, puzzled, "Wheres Qingqing? Did she not come..." His voice trailed off, his gaze fixated on the private room corner, his face instantly darkened. This chatterbox guy with a mouth like a machine gun actually came with Su Qingqing? Whats going on! Could they be in a relationship? Xie Fengs face turned grim as he walked toward the private room corner. Chapter 38 Am I That Influential? Chapter 38: Chapter 38 Am I That Influential?Xie Feng walked over to Su Qingqing and asked coldly, "Qingqing, did you bring him?" "Is there a problem? Didnt you say its best to bring a partner to the party?" Su Qingqing replied indifferently. "You!" Xie Fengs face turned ugly. The reason he said its best to bring a partner was that he knew Su Qingqing didnt have anyone, which would make her feel very awkward at the event! Then, his chances would be much higher when he confessed, and if that didnt work, he had a "backup plan"... But she actually brought a "partner" with her? And, the partner is this kid! "Qingqing, you know what I mean." Xie Fengs face was gloomy, his fists tightly clenched. "What does your meaning have to do with me?" Su Qingqings cold words sparked an unnamable anger in Xie Feng. Xie Feng suppressed his anger, took out a bouquet of flowers from behind, and said, "Qingqing, I love you, please marry me!" The moment the words were spoken, the place fell into silence. Xie Feng, in front of Su Qingqings boyfriend, asking Su Qingqing to marry him? Everyones expression was quite remarkable. Seeing Ye Huan with no reaction, Su Qingqing pinched Ye Huans thigh hard and said, "Someones trying to steal your girlfriend, dont you have anything to say?" "Didnt you tell me not to speak?" "If I told you to die, would you?" "Is that even comparable?" Ye Huan shrugged helplessly. "You..." Su Qingqing was furious, gritting her teeth she said, "Fine, I allow you to speak." Seeing the two of them like this, Xie Feng was secretly pleased. Do these two look like a couple? What man remains unmoved when his girlfriend is being confessed to? Su Qingqing suddenly having a boyfriend was strange enough. Could it be, this brat is just a decoy she brought along? This must be it! Xie Feng suddenly realized, smiling, "Qingqing, I get it, this kid is just a decoy you found, right?" "You must be mistaken, shes my girlfriend." Ye Huan, chewing on a toothpick, put an arm around Su Qingqings shoulder. Su Qingqings expression changed slightly but she did not resist. Seeing the goddess being held by someone else made Xie Feng very unhappy, but upon noticing the odd expression on Su Qingqings face, it further strengthened his belief. Ye Huan was definitely a decoy found by Su Qingqing! "Kid, get your dirty hands off." Xie Feng took out a wad of red bills and slapped it on the table, "Fifty thousand, get out now!" "Are you sure you want me to leave?" Ye Huan pinched his chin and asked. Xie Feng pointed to the door of the private room, "Get out!" Seeing Ye Huan putting the money into his pocket, Xie Fengs eyes were filled with disdain, a stinky security guard could be handled easily with a bit of money. But this was good, soon he could seize the opportunity to get close to Su Qingqing. "Ye Huan, stop!" Su Qingqing, gnashing her teeth, grabbed Ye Huans hand, nearly fainting from anger on the spot. "Stop for what, why pass up on easy money?" Ye Huan shook off Su Qingqings hand and continued to tuck the bills into his security uniform pocket. His behavior resulted in mocking laughter from everyone, including Xie Feng, in the room. The lower class will always be the lower class, for a bit of money, he actually sold such a beautiful girlfriend! Su Qingqing was utterly frustrated and tearless, wondering how she ended up with such a spineless decoy. In the next moment, she found her wrist being yanked, making her furious, "What are you doing, let go of me!" "Do what? He paid fifty thousand to get us to leave, how can we take the money and not do the job!" Ye Huan said earnestly. "Ah? Oh!" Su Qingqing was dumbfounded, unable to grasp the situation, allowing Ye Huan to pull her outside. Xie Feng snapped back to reality, his face twisting in rage, "What are you doing, let go of Qingqing!" "What am I doing? Didnt you tell us to leave?" "I told you to leave, not for Qingqing to go with you!" Xie Feng shouted angrily. Ye Huan looked puzzled and said, "Im leaving, its impossible to leave my girlfriend behind, right?" Xie Feng was furious, this kids skin was thicker than a city wall! His face filled with fury, he shouted, "Dont think I dont know, you are just a decoy, and girlfriend? Who are you to make Qingqing your girlfriend?" "You dont believe it?" Ye Huans lips curved into a smile. "I dont buy your bullshit!" Xie Feng cursed angrily. The next second, he froze. Ye Huan leaned forward and kissed Su Qingqing on the lips. Three seconds later. "Smooch~" Ye Huan smacked his lips with relish, smiling, "Wow, quite sweet!" Su Qingqings mind went blank. This shameless wolf kissed her again? Why doesnt he just die! Su Qingqings anger boiled, but she didnt explode because it was not the time to. "Kid, you... you actually kissed... kissed Qingqing?" Xie Feng pointed at Ye Huan, his finger trembling non-stop, his face contorted to the extreme. "What about it? I kissed my girlfriend, cant I show some affection?" Ye Huan said with a smile. "You... amazing, youre good, just wait!" Having his goddess kissed by another man in public, Xie Feng was furious to the extreme. "Thanks for the praise, I wasnt amazing just starting today. Alright, bye-bye!" Ye Huan waved, pulling Su Qingqing to leave. "Hold on!" Xie Feng shouted angrily, then threw down another wad of cash, "Fifty thousand, stay!" "Wow, Im willing to call you the Wimpy Brother." Ye Huan gave a thumbs up, pulling Su Qingqing back to sit on the sofa in the corner, "Wimpy Brother, doesnt this mean youre spending a hundred thousand to have me at the class reunion? Am I really that influential?" "Wimpy Brother? What do you mean..." Xie Feng was furious. But feeling a sharp gaze, he quickly calmed down. "Youre good, you have quite the influence, hope youll still be so influential later on." Xie Feng said coldly, dropping these somewhat threatening words, he turned and left the private room. Huang Qiqing followed him out under the dim light... ... Emperor KTV, a small private room. "Damn!" Xie Feng flipped the table over, fury on his face. "Young Master Xie, why so angry?" Huang Qiqing had a ladys cigarette between her fingers and asked calmly. "Of course, when he kissed Su Qingqing in public, could I not be angry?" Xie Feng cursed. Huang Qiqing let out a cold laugh, "Young Master Xie, youre angry, but I suggest you dont forget the purpose of tonights class reunion, or your father might just ruin your other two legs." "Of course, I know." Xie Feng punched the wall, his face ferocious, "Is everything ready?" Huang Qiqing smiled, "About my reward, though?" "Your two million high-interest loans to our Xie family are completely forgiven, and an additional fifty thousand in service fees will be transferred to your account tomorrow." "OK~" Huang Qiqing nodded in satisfaction and took out a small plastic bag with white powder from her gowns pocket, "It took a great effort to get this, colorless, tasteless, easily dissolves in water. I guarantee itll turn Su Qingqing into a mindless beast for the rest of the evening." "That being said, isnt Su Qingqing your bestie? Youre betraying her for a bit of money?" Xie Feng sneered. "People die for money, birds die for food. Besides, Su Qingqing caused my family to go bankrupt. Could I consider her a bestie?" Huang Qiqing crossed her arms, sneering, "As for you, be prepared to finally win over your goddess tonight." Upon hearing this, the anger in Xie Fengs heart turned to malicious desire. Imagining Su Qingqings beauty made him parched with thirst. "Whew~" Huang Qiqing exhaled a smoke ring, extinguished her cigarette butt, and walked out of the small private room with elegant cat-like steps. Xie Feng continuously let out evil laughs, his body heating up. But he knew that before handling Su Qingqing, he must deal with Ye Huan, or else it could mean endless trouble. Ye Huan, I definitely wont let you off! Sear?h the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. How dare you kiss my goddess in public? Who can tolerate that! Tonight, he must pay dearly for it! Xie Feng took out his phone and dialed a number. "Hey, Brother Hu, do you have some time..." "Oh? Youre also at Emperor KTV? Great, Ill come over right away!" Xie Fengs face lit up with joy, revealing a sinister smile. Kid, offending me, Xie Feng, is the biggest mistake of your life! Chapter 39: He is Boss Ye! Chapter 39: Chapter 39: He is Boss Ye!"Ye Huan, how do you want to die?" Su Qingqing gritted her teeth, her left hand gripping Ye Huans thigh tightly, twisting it hard. Ye Huan drew a sharp breath, quickly shaking off Su Qingqings hand: "Su Qingqing, whats wrong with you?" "Youre still cursing at me? Not enough to take advantage of me, now you want to curse at me too? Ye Huan, how can you be so despicable." Su Qingqing said aggrievedly, "Youve kissed me three times, how can I get married in the future!" "Kissed three times?" Ye Huan was somewhat speechless, and said, "Su Qingqing, are you mistaken? Why are your thoughts so old-fashioned? Women nowadays, not to mention being kissed three times, even if theyre slept with three times, can still find an honest man to mar" Feeling Su Qingqings murderous gaze, Ye Huan swallowed the last word "carry". "Im not that kind of frivolous woman," Su Qingqing suppressed her anger, speaking through gritted teeth, "Ill give you a chance, divorce your wife." Ye Huans face turned dark: "What do you mean?" "What do I mean? I mean..." Before Su Qingqing could finish... "Bang!!!" A loud noise came as the door to the royal box room crashed onto the ground. A group of men wearing sunglasses, with fierce and malicious expressions, barged in. The leader, broad and burly, had a purple scar across his face, and a giant "Wang" character tattooed on his forehead. This sudden turn of events startled everyone, making them shiver and retreat several steps toward the walls. Tiger Brother exhaled a smoke ring, placing his foot directly on the coffee table in the middle of the room, vicious glint in his eyes: "Who is Ye Huan?" The intense murderous aura emanating from him made everyone shiver uncontrollably, cold sweat dripping from their foreheads. Seeing no response, his face grew even darker. "Ill ask again, who is Ye Huan!" Tiger Brother shouted loudly. His imposing voice was so loud that it caused the chandelier on the ceiling to fall to the ground. "Clang." The sharp sound made everyones heart tremble once again. Su Qingqings face changed slightly. This person was looking for Ye Huan? When did Ye Huan provoke such a dangerous figure? "Ill ask again, who is Ye Huan." Tiger Brother shouted at the crowd. The crowd was filled with panic. A slightly bolder person laughed awkwardly and spoke softly. "B-big brother, you might be looking for the wrong person, theres no one named Ye Huan among our classmates." "Are you saying I made a mistake?" "P-possibly." "Youre the first to dare question me!" Tiger Brother sneered, raising his calloused hand. "Smack!!!" The resounding slap echoed in the room, as the person who spoke up spat out a mouthful of blood and then fainted. "Whoever is Ye Huan, step forward, every second you waste of mine, Ill give you an extra slap later." Tiger Brother said coldly, scanning the crowd. The people directly opposite Tiger Brother shivered, not daring to make a sound. They saw clearly the power of the slap just now, it could practically kill someone! The problem was, who was Ye Huan? There was no one named Ye Huan among the classmates. No, Su Qingqings lousy security guard boyfriend seemed to be named Ye Huan... Thinking of this, they all turned their gaze to the corner of the room. Tiger Brother followed the gaze of the crowd, coldly speaking: "Are you Ye Huan?" "Yes, thats me. You looking for me?" Ye Huans expression was calm. His eyes glanced and saw a little brother behind Tiger Brother, the corner of his mouth slightly upturned... "You expect me to step out when I come looking for you, thinking so highly of yourself?" Tiger Brothers gaze was exceedingly fierce, swinging his thick arms, creating a strong visual impact. "And you want me to step out when you come looking for me, youre not small-faced either." Ye Huan chuckled. Su Qingqings face turned dark, pulling on Ye Huans sleeve as a hint. Her face was full of anxiety, it was obvious that the person opposite was dangerous and had ill intentions, yet Ye Huan still dared to talk back, did he not value his life? "Ha...haha!" Tiger Brother laughed eerily, pulled a chair over, and sat across from Ye Huan, saying, "Its been years since anyone dared talk to me like this." "Oh?" Ye Huan smirked, saying, "So Im one of the few?" "Of course." Tiger Brother grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth, "Forgot to tell you, those who dared speak to me like this usually ended up pretty badly. What do you thinkwill you end up very badly?" At this moment, someone in the crowd by the wall looked terrified and exclaimed. "This...this big brother, seems to be Tiger Brother!" "What, hes Tiger Brother? The infamous...no, the immensely reputable Tiger Brother from Celestial Seas underunderworld?" "I think youre right, his head has the Wang character, obviously hes Tiger Brother, who would dare impersonate Tiger Brother unless they had a death wish?" "Damn, this security guard actually dares to speak to Tiger Brother like that, is he out of his mind?" "He probably thinks he wont die badly enough, thats why he dares provoke Tiger Brother like that!" The crowd snickered repeatedly. Who is Tiger Brother? His subordinates may not number in the hundreds, but certainly a few dozen. This whole area, including Emperor KTV, who doesnt pay him protection fees? Who doesnt treat him as an honored guest? Its said that those who previously offended him met their end at the bottom of the river! This foul security guard offending Tiger Brother like this, showing no regard for him, getting dumped at the river bottom would be light, breaking five limbs and thrown into the wilderness, thats where you cant ask to live or die! A bottom-tier foul security guard, not knowing his own status, yet daring to speak insolently to a big shot like Tiger Brother, its simply looking for death! The next moment, they directly shook their heads disdainfully. This foul security guard, truly ignorant of death, yet dares to provoke Tiger Brother, ridiculous! "Its also rare for someone to speak to me, the young master, like that." Ye Huan smiled. "So youre quite impressive too?" "More impressive than you." Ye Huan smiled. Su Qingqing bowed her head, noticing Ye Huan becoming more and more outrageous, she almost fainted. Tiger Brothers reputation she had heard of too, talking to him like this, Ye Huan truly wasnt valuing his life! At this moment... A little brother standing stiffly behind Tiger Brother felt Ye Huans voice very familiar, he took off his sunglasses and looked closely at Ye Huan, his face changed instantly. He tugged Tiger Brothers sleeve, trying to hint something. Tiger Brother ignored him and sneered coldly, "In Celestial Sea, those who can outclass me, there arent many." Ye Huan smirked, shrugging his shoulders, "Thats not for you to know, I can only tell you, Im definitely more impressive than you." "Kid, youre too arrogant!" Tiger Brother stood up angrily, slamming his palm hard, the chair beneath him crumbled into powder. The little brothers face filled with anxiety, tugging Tiger Brothers sleeve again. Sar?h the Novl?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Tiger Brother, he is..." "Wang Biao, why do you keep tugging at me, looking to die?" Tiger Brother swung his hand in a slap. The slap echoed, blood dripped from the corner of Wang Biaos mouth, and he fell to the ground. "Tiger Brother, you misunderstood me, I was trying to say, this person is Ye..." Wang Biao spoke anxiously, only to be slapped again. "I know hes Ye Huan!" Tiger Brother cursed. Wang Biao, on the verge of tears, said, "No, not like that, he is Ye Huan, but he is genuinely more impress" "He can be more impressive than me? How come I didnt know!" Tiger Brother raged, kicking Wang Biao in the abdomen. Wang Biao howled twice, using all his strength, shouted out. "Hes Silver BayBoss Ye!" Chapter 40: Since that’s the case, let’s settle this matter properly. Chapter 40: Chapter 40: Since thats the case, lets settle this matter properly.Silver BayYe Boss? Why does this name sound so familiar to me? Tiger Brother furrowed his brows and started to ponder in his mind. In the next second, as if something struck him, his face changed dramatically. "Ye Boss? Is he Ye Boss? Wang Biao, you better not be fooling me." Tiger Brothers voice trembled slightly as he probed. "I... I had the fortune to see Ye Boss once last time, its really him." "Gulp." Tiger Brother swallowed hard: "Are... are you sure?" Wang Biao managed to nod, enduring the pain: "Im sure, hes Ye Boss from Silver Bay!" After going back last time, Wang Biao had a keen sense and secretly investigated Ye Boss. What he discovered was shocking! Ye Boss had a security company named Silver Bay with hundreds of men under him! As for the so-called security company, everyone knows its just a front; the dirty work and protection fees are unavoidable! Most importantly, those hundreds of men could definitely drown Tiger Brother with just one spit per person! The forces behind the two were not on the same level at all! "This... how is this possible..." Tiger Brothers forehead started to sweat coldly as he looked at Ye Huan, "You... are you Ye Boss?" Ye Huan bit onto a toothpick and said indifferently, "In Celestial Sea, there really arent many who dare to question me like this. You are quite something." "You... I..." Tiger Brothers lips trembled, and his palm became damp from cold sweat... He knew exactly how immense Ye Bosss power was in Celestial Sea; describing it as covering the sky with one hand would not be an exaggeration! S~ea??h the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. No wonder this young man spoke to him so confidently and remained unfazed in front of his intense hostility... If he really was Ye Boss, his actions would be nothing short of seeking death! The room was engulfed in an eerie silence... The people leaning against the wall were confused. Ye Boss? Isnt this person just a stinking security guard at Tianyun International? How could he be Ye Boss? Someone couldnt hold back and asked, "Tiger Brother, did you... get it wrong? Hes just a small-time security guard, not any Ye Boss..." Security guard? Those words struck Tiger Brothers mind like a thunderbolt. Wasnt the force under Ye Boss the Silver Bay Security Company? "Is Ye Boss someone a person like you can insult? Shut up!" Tiger Brother roared furiously, standing up and delivering a heavy slap to that person, knocking him unconscious to the ground. This action made the crowd shiver and not dare to make a sound. "Tiger Brother, is it? How many years has it been since someone dared to act tough in front of me without my permission? Youre the first." Ye Huans voice was low. This voice, without expressing anger, automatically carried authority, suffocating others. "I... I..." Tiger Brother stuttered, unable to utter a word. He was completely convinced of Ye Huans identity. This aura of a superior was not something an ordinary person could possess. Ye Huans gaze suddenly became extremely sharp, and he said coldly, "Kneel." "Thud." Without any hesitation, Tiger Brother knelt down. People in the crowd were almost shocked out of their wits seeing his reaction. Tiger Brother, infamous on the street, actually knelt on the spot to this security guard? And he did it without hesitation, how is this possible! Su Qingqing also looked shocked, completely unable to grasp what was happening. "Tiger Brother? Let me tell you, in front of me, a dragon lies down, and a tiger has to crouch!" Ye Huans expression was calm, "Besides, in my eyes, at best youre just a sick cat." "Yes, yes, yes." Tiger Brother nodded obsequiously. At this moment, he no longer had the previous swagger; he really looked no different from a sick cat. On the surface, Tiger Brother appeared so, but inside, he was seething with anger. Xie Feng actually made him offend Ye Boss? Wasnt this pushing him into a pit of fire? Speak of the devil and he shall appear. "Click... click..." The VIP room doorknob turned, and Xie Feng swaggered in with a face full of mockery, shouting, "Ye Huan, do you realize how badass I am now? Did you enjoy getting beaten up?" Soon he became puzzled. The person kneeling on the ground didnt look like Ye Huan? After Xie Feng took a few steps closer and rubbed his eyes, he looked carefully. He shuddered violently, rubbing his eyes again, seriously doubting if there was something wrong with his eyes. "Take him down!" Tiger Brother shouted viciously. Without hesitation, his followers grabbed Xie Feng and forced him to kneel on the ground. "Ti... Tiger Brother, what are you doing?" Xie Feng looked anxious, "And why havent you gotten rid of Ye Huan?" "Daring to speak rudely to Ye Boss? I think youre tired of living!" Tiger Brother roared angrily, standing up and punching Xie Feng hard in the abdomen. Xie Fengs eyeballs almost popped out, unsure of how many ribs were broken, and the intense pain made him scream miserably. "Tiger... Tiger Brother, what are you doing?" Xie Feng forced out a few weak words through clenched teeth from the pain, "This... this man is just... a security guard, what... what Ye Boss?" "Youre still asking me what Im doing; I should be asking what youre up to, youre trying to screw me over, arent you!" Tiger Brother shouted, bulging veins on his arms made it look intimidating under the dim light. "I... I wouldnt dare to screw over Tiger Brother, would I? Isnt that looking for... looking for death?" Xie Feng wanted to cry but had no tears. "You made me offend Ye Boss, how is that not screwing me over!" Tiger Brother was furious, swinging his palm again, leaving a blood-red mark on Xie Fengs face. "Ye Boss, its him; he called me to come here and bother you. I was at the Emperor KTV, so I came over." Tiger Brother pointed at Xie Feng with a furious look, "May I ask Ye Boss how to deal with him? Break five limbs or throw him to the bottom of the river?" Listening to these words, deep fear flitted across Xie Fengs eyes. Break five limbs? Throw him to the bottom of the river? What on earth is going on? Why does Tiger Brother respect Ye Huan, this security guard, so much? Why! "He told you to give me trouble, and you did come to cause trouble, am I wrong?" "Not... not wrong..." Tiger Brother said awkwardly. "So how are we going to settle this?" Ye Huans mouth curved up, "You also know, to destroy you, it only takes one finger." Tiger Brother wiped cold sweat from his forehead, his voice trembling: "All at Ye Bosss discretion." With that, he waved his hand. The sound of kneeling kept echoing. Tiger Brother led a group of his followers, all kneeling on the ground, heads bowed, looking like they awaited orders. With that, including Xie Feng, everyone else in the room finally realized that Ye Huan was not the low-level security guard they thought. With one finger, he could annihilate Tiger Brother? Tiger Brother didnt even dare to retort? This showed that his status was definitely several levels higher than Tiger Brothers! Everyone on site gasped in cold air, their eyeballs trembling. Tiger Brother already had a high status in Celestial Sea City, even a first-class family like the Xie Family had to give him face. What on earth is the true identity of this "stinking security guard"? Indeed, with Su Qingqings looks and taste, how could she possibly choose an ordinary security guard as her boyfriend? Absolutely impossible! This person appears to be a security guard, but in reality, hes an incredible figure! The eyes of everyone looking at Ye Huan were filled with shock... and... a hint of fear... The consequences of offending Tiger Brother were either death or severe injury. So if you offend someone even more formidable than Tiger Brother, what will the consequences be? Among the crowd, those who previously mocked Ye Huan all hung their heads low, trembling all over. They regretted to the extreme, thinking if they hadnt judged him with dog eyes, this wouldnt have happened? At the same time, they were filled with fear, fearing that if Ye Huan held a grudge, they would utterly disappear without a trace! Ye Huan twisted his neck, got up, and said with a cheerful smile. "Since thats the case, were going to settle this debt properly." Chapter 41: Go Divorce Your Wife Tomorrow! Chapter 41: Chapter 41: Go Divorce Your Wife Tomorrow!"I, Ye, may not be known by everyone in Celestial Sea City, but who wouldnt respectfully call me Boss Ye when they see me? Who wouldnt come up and offer me a drink?" "You sick cat really have some guts, barging in and acting tough while Im trying to rest and have some fun, quite bold!" Ye Huan clapped his hands and asked casually, "Which leg kicked the door?" "Right... right leg..." Brother Tiger replied sheepishly. A minute later, seeing Ye Huan silent, Brother Tiger gritted his teeth, pulled out a dagger, and fiercely stabbed it into his own right thigh, blood immediately flowing out from the wound. "And what about the yelling and shouting, how should that be dealt with?" Ye Huan continued. Without a moments hesitation, Brother Tiger raised his calloused hand and crazily slapped his own face. "Slap. Slap. Slap." The force was so great that he hadnt slapped himself a few times before the blood started seeping from the corners of his mouth, and his face swelled. Meanwhile, several people in the crowd by the wall also fell to their knees, starting to slap themselves. Without exception, they were all people who had previously ridiculed Ye Huan. In their view, it was better to start themselves than to face Boss Yes wrath later - maybe this would put out some of his anger. "Well, you guys sure are self-aware." Ye Huan said with a smile. "Boss Ye praises us." They slapped their mouths, grinning fawningly. "Do you still dare to look down on security guards?" "No... no we dont..." "Is being a security guard honorable?" "Honorable." "Oh?" Ye Huan said in surprise, "But earlier, you guys really looked down on security guards, huh?" "That... that was just a moment of confusion." The crowd was on the verge of tears. How could they have known that this little security guard in a Tianyun International uniform was actually a big shot? If they had known, who wouldve dared to mock? "So youre sober now? Im all ears." Ye Huan sat back on the corner sofa, smiling, "Tell me, how honorable is the security profession." "Security guards are the guardians of peoples property, the nemesis of criminals, the faithful defenders of the communitys peace, supremely honorable!" "Damn, I didnt know security guards were so amazing. Didnt expect your moral enlightenment to be so high." Ye Huan laughed. "Thanks to Boss Ye, otherwise wed still be confused." They laughed awkwardly. "One last question." Ye Huans lips curled up, "What do you think of Su Qingqings intelligence?" Everyone was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "Theres no need to question the intelligence of School Belle Su; she was always top of the class, and now shes with Boss Ye, her IQ is off the charts!" Some of the women speaking felt immensely jealous. Originally, they thought Su Qingqing had low intelligence, given her good conditions yet being with a mere security guard. Now it seems, the one with low intelligence is themselves. Su Qingqing is the truly smart one. Being with such a big shot, shell have no worries in the latter half of her life, enjoying wealth and glory! "Not bad, not bad, theres hope for you yet!" Ye Huan nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Su Qingqing, face filled with pride, "Minister Su, how about it? Ive educated them well so that they understand how honorable the security profession is. When will you perform a sow climbing a tree for me?" The scene in the box left Su Qingqing utterly shocked and panicked. Ye Huans words swiftly brought her back to her senses. Performing a sow climbing a tree? This jerk, is he implying Im a sow? Thinking this, Su Qingqing got furious, "Ye Huan, what do you mean, explain to me clearly, or I wont let this go." "Didnt you say that if I educated them, making them repent, youd perform a sow climbing a tree?" "I was saying that pigs might climb trees, not that Id perform a pig climbing a tree for you!" Ye Huan nodded as if understanding suddenly, smirking, "Oh, so thats how it is, but then, arent you admitting youre a sow?" "You tricked me!" Su Qingqing said, full of shame and anger, as she softy punched Ye Huan, "Go to hell!" Ye Huan blocked the punch and said, "The partys almost over, lets go." Su Qingqing paused for a moment, then nodded. She suddenly realized that the panic she felt earlier had all dissipated. Was it possible that this jerks purpose was to ease her anxiety? Yet he doesnt say it straight! Su Qingqings face turned slightly red, following Ye Huan out of the compartment. Watching their leaving backs, everyone in the compartment finally sighed in relief, stopping their self-punishment actions. Brother Tiger gasped, forcibly pushing two bloody teeth back into place, but his face was still full of worry. So unlucky to have offended Boss Ye! If Boss Ye decides to settle accounts later, wouldnt it be the end for him? The more Brother Tiger thought about it, the angrier he got, pointing at Xie Feng, "Give him a good beating for me!" "Yes!" In an instant, the luxurious Royal Court compartment became chaotic, with Xie Fengs pig-like screams constantly emanating from within. The minions swarmed him, furiously kicking and punching him. Even those businesspeople and classmates who originally treated Xie Feng with great respect secretly kicked him a few times and then left angrily. Xie Feng might be impressive, but better than Boss Ye? Offending Boss Ye, what a huge mistake! ... On the street, under the dim streetlight. Ye Huan and Su Qingqing walked side by side. Considering that its unsafe for a girl to go home alone late at night, Ye Huan decided to escort her. "Hmph, tell me, who are you really!" Su Qingqing folded her arms, "Even Brother Tiger calls you Boss Ye, you must be a big shot in the underworld, right?" "Youre overthinking it." Ye Huan smiled, "Do you remember Wang Biao? Once I jokingly said in front of him that I was Boss Ye, scaring him half to death, but it was all made up, so he recognized me." Su Qingqing looked unconvinced, "You can fool Wang Biao, but is Brother Tiger so easily fooled?" "Im not sure about that." Ye Huan spread his hands helplessly, "Maybe there really is a Boss Ye in Celestial Sea whos more powerful than Brother Tiger. Ye is a common surname, not surprising. Have you read online novels? There are countless protagonists, half of them being ancestors of the Ye family." "Whod believe that? If you dont want to tell, dont. If youre suddenly killed one day, remember to have someone call me, Ill buy some firecrackers to celebrate." "I..." Ye Huans face darkened, lines forming across his forehead. Su Qingqing snorted coldly, feeling somewhat displeased. She still didnt believe Ye Huan. After all, how could an ordinary person not only stay calm in front of Brother Tiger but also pull off such a trick? Impossible! After a long silence. Su Qingqing suddenly spoke, "Ye Huan, go get a divorce from your wife tomorrow." Ye Huan stumbled, almost banging his head into a telephone pole. "Minister Su, what are you talking about, something wrong with your brain?" "Theres something wrong with your brain!" Su Qingqing snapped, her brows furrowing, "Youve kissed me three times, I definitely cant face marrying anyone else, so I might as well try being with you." "Wow, youre so old-fashioned, are you living in ancient times?" "I am old-fashioned, I am conservative. So what?" Su Qingqing said angrily, "You think I want to be with you? Why dont you take a good look at yourself and see if youre worth it?" Ye Huan nodded, "Indeed not worth it, so lets forget it." "You..." Su Qingqing, filled with rage, said, "Being with me, would you lose anything? Is your wife better looking than me, in better shape than me?"

This statement made Su Qingqing burst into laughter from anger, "If there are many women better looking than me, is your wife a Celestial Immortal or something?" Ye Huan thought for a moment, recalling Liu Tianyuns unparalleled beauty and grace, "My wife might be a bit more beautiful than a Celestial Immortal... and you know her too." "Puh, then tell me who she is, I want to see where your confidence is from!" "My wife is the CEO of Tianyun InternationalLiu Tianyun!" Chapter 42 True Face Chapter 42: Chapter 42 True FaceSu Qingqing rubbed her forehead, sighed, and then walked straight ahead without saying another word. In her opinion, Ye Huan was beyond help, to the point where he could even say something as ridiculous as the president being his wife. It was unimaginable how far his delusions had progressed. "Hey!" Ye Huan caught up, "Minister Su, do you still not believe me?" Su Qingqing stopped and said, "Ye Huan, I suggest you get your head checked at a psychiatric hospital and, by the way, ask how to treat daydreams!" "Why dont you believe me? My wife is really the president!" "Who would believe that? The president is a dream girl for so many men. Who could win her over? Youre just dreaming!" Su Qingqing glared angrily at Ye Huan and continued walking. Ye Huan shrugged helplessly. These days, why does no one believe the truth? Soon, they arrived at the bottom of an apartment building. Watching the woman running toward him, Ye Huans eyes gradually narrowed into slits. "Qingqing, youre finally back, are you hurt?" Huang Qiqing asked excitedly, hugging Su Qingqing. "Im fine, Im fine." Su Qingqing laughed, "What are you doing here?" "I was waiting for you." Huang Qiqing breathed a sigh of relief, "When I was coming back from the restroom, I saw a group of big men rush into a box, so I didnt dare go in. I couldnt reach you on the phone, so I waited here under the apartment building." Su Qingqing took out her phone and, sure enough, saw a series of missed calls. She apologized, "I didnt notice my phone, sorry about that." "As long as youre fine, everything else doesnt matter." Huang Qiqing asked with a concerned look, "What were those people up to? What happened at the Royal Court?" "Those people..." Su Qingqing was about to recount what happened, but saying it would surely unsettle Huang Qiqing. She shook her head, smiled, and said, "Nothing much, those people just went into the wrong box and left later." "Thats good, but..." Huang Qiqing smirked mischievously, "Qingqing, I didnt expect you to be so close with Ye Huan, cohabiting and all. Am I disturbing you two by coming here?" "Were not cohabiting!" Su Qingqings face was full of shame and anger, "Hes just a tag-along with nothing to do and followed me. Ill send him away now." With that, she turned to Ye Huan, "You should leave now, Im home!" "Ive walked you all the way home, arent you going to let me up for a cup of tea?" Ye Huan protested. "No way!" "Thats biased!" Ye Huan said, "Im just as tired as Huang, so why can she stay and I cant?" Su Qingqing put her hands on her hips and said, "Because shes my best friend, and youre nothing." Just as tired? Ye Huans words made Huang Qiqings eyes flicker wildly and she felt guilty. She stopped her rapid breathing, forcing it to become much more even. She was a bit flustered inside, could it be that her odd behavior had been discovered? In fact, she had watched everything that happened at the Royal Court through surveillance at the Emperor KTV, then ran over to arrive at the apartment building before Su Qingqing. "Huang, why is your face so red?" Ye Huan asked with a hint of implication. "I...Im a bit hot, its Indian summer right now." Huang Qiqing smiled, her face red from the run, her forehead covered with beads of sweat. "Go quickly, Huang this and Huang that, as if youre very familiar." Su Qingqing hurried. "Then Ill go, dont miss me too much." "Miss you? Get lost!" Su Qingqing said through gritted teeth, waving him off like a fly. Ye Huan laughed and turned away. Seeing Ye Huan disappear from view, Huang Qiqing finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Qingqing, its so late, can I stay the night?" Huang Qiqing smiled. "Of course, we havent seen each other for so long. Lets share a bed tonight." Su Qingqing said happily, pulling Huang Qiqing upstairs. Huang Qiqing let herself be pulled along, but a sinister grin formed on her lips, and a flash of malice crossed her eyes... ... "Qingqing, I never thought we could reconcile." "Yes, we should have been good friends back in college, instead of wasting four years!" Su Qingqing and Huang Qiqing each held a bottle of canned ice cola, clinking them together. They had just finished bathing and were sitting on the bed, wrapped in bathrobes, a fragrant scent emanating from them. "By the way, Qiqing, how are things with Wang Gang?" Su Qingqing asked with a smile. Huang Qiqing shrugged helplessly and said, "We got married afterward, but we couldnt return to the state of when we first fell in love, so we divorced when it became unbearable." "I see." Su Qingqing looked regretful, then asked urgently, "Qiqing, please believe me, there was nothing between Wang Gang and me..." "Qingqing, stop talking about it, its all in the past!" Huang Qiqing hurriedly covered Su Qingqings mouth. But inside, she was seething with anger. Wang Gang and she were childhood sweethearts, growing up together with deep feelings, starting their relationship in junior high. They were passionately in love until high school senior year, but due to the immense study pressure, Wang Gang often argued with Huang Qiqing, and the flames of their relationship seemed to be dying... Desperately trying to save it, Huang Qiqing ultimately chose to forgo the opportunity to study at Cambridge and went to the same college as Wang Gang. But as soon as college started, she found Wang Gang captivated by Su Qingqing, this enchantress. Wang Gang frequently expressed his liking for Su Qingqing in front of her, and even invited Su Qingqing out many times. Although Su Qingqing refused all invitations, after this incident, the whole class knew that Huang Qiqings childhood sweetheart confessed to Su Qingqing. Since then, Huang Qiqing and Su Qingqing were completely at odds. Sarch* The NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The entire heart of Huang Qiqing was full of jealousy. If Su Qingqing wasnt so pretty, didnt act so pure, how could Wang Gang have been infatuated with her? How could he? What really made Huang Qiqing bear a grudge against Su Qingqing actually was a secret incident. Once, she bought several sets of unique outfits to surprise Wang Gang and win him back. The effect was indeed good, Wang Gang was very pleased! Huang Qiqing was thrilled, believing Wang Gang would return. But at night, as they slept, Wang Gang shouted Su Qingqings name in his sleep! Recalling this, Huang Qiqing was filled with rage, trembling uncontrollably. "By the way, Qingqing." Huang Qiqings eyes were filled with malice as she said, "Over the years, I started a small company, but due to poor management, it suffered losses, and I owe a lot of high-interest loans. The payments are due soon." "Ah?" Su Qingqing exclaimed, "Why didnt you tell me? I still have some savings; you can use them to tide over this emergency?" Inside, Huang Qiqings resentment grew even stronger. Pretending to be a good person, youll have your moment soon! "Its not about the money; Ill be paying off the debts soon. But I need your help with another thing..." "No problem, Ill do anything to help you!" Su Qingqing said resolutely, patting her chest with determination. Huang Qiqing displayed a meaningful expression and said, "Youll know then, youll definitely be able to help me!" "Okay." Su Qingqing smiled and nodded. The two clinked their bottles again, and Su Qingqing finished her cola in one go, letting out a satisfied belch, "So refreshing!" Huang Qiqings lips curled into a cold smile. Refreshing? Just wait, youll feel refreshed soon enough! Three minutes later, Su Qingqings face was flushed, and she kept exhaling heat. She picked up the air conditioner remote, puzzled, "The temperature is set to the lowest, so why is it still so hot?" "Is it acting so fast?" Huang Qiqing was surprised for a moment, then coldly laughed, "But thats good, its almost time." She clapped her hands. "Qiqing, what...what are you saying?" Su Qingqings eyes became dazed, and she asked in confusion. In the next moment, the door was kicked open. Su Qingqing shivered, her senses suddenly much clearer. Seeing the person who came in, her face turned panic-stricken. "Xie...Xie Feng?" Chapter 43: I can destroy your Xie family with just one phone call. Chapter 43: Chapter 43: I can destroy your Xie family with just one phone call."Qingqing, Im here." Xie Feng said with a smile. But now his smile looked very creepy, his face was wrapped in thick bandages, and blood was seeping through them slightly. "Xie Feng, you... how can you be... at my house!" Su Qingqing shouted in panic, clutching the blanket tightly around her body, her eyes full of vigilance. "Qingqing, I really like you!" Xie Feng said earnestly, pulling out a bouquet of flowers from behind him, "If you marry me and become my familys daughter-in-law, youll have a life of luxury, without any worries for the rest of your life." "Dream on..." As soon as she spoke, Su Qingqings eyes flickered with a hint of confusion. She hurriedly pinched her thigh, using the intense pain to force herself to stay awake. "Young Master Xie, youre such a gentleman, talking about feelings even after the drug has taken effect?" Huang Qiqing lit a ladys cigarette, said playfully. Xie Fengs old face reddened, but his eyes remained fixed on Su Qingqing, his throat moving instinctively. Because of the drugs effect, Su Qingqings skin was hot and blushing, crystal-clear. Whenever Xie Feng sought out a woman, he would always imagine Su Qingqings appearance in his mind. Now that the body he had longed for day and night was right in front of him, his inner restlessness was uncontrollable, momentarily curing his "old habits." "Qingqing, I... I love you, I beg you, stay with me. I cant understand, in what way am I not good enough for you?" Xie Feng swallowed and said sincerely, "I have money, I have manners..." Before he could finish, Su Qingqing exploded, "Manners? Drugging me, is that your manners? Xie Feng, why dont you just die!" Xie Feng looked extremely embarrassed. "Huang Qiqing, why are you doing this?" Su Qingqing asked through gritted teeth, turning to look at Huang Qiqing. "Because you ruined my family!" Huang Qiqing screamed hysterically, "You vixen! I dont know what Demon Technique you used to have my boyfriend completely mesmerized!" "I have nothing to do with Wang Gang..." "What a joke! Your body is all it needs to commit a crime. Blame your parents for giving you such a vixen appearance!" Huang Qiqing looked down at Su Qingqing with a venomous gaze, "And dont you like playing the innocent role? Go ahead, show me one now!" As soon as she finished speaking, Huang Qiqing suddenly lifted the blanket and grabbed Su Qingqings hand that was pinching her thigh. In an instant. Deprived of the stimulus of pain, Su Qingqing felt her sanity slipping away. "Huang... Huang Qiqing, I... I really didnt... lure your... your boyfriend." Su Qingqing said with grievance, squeezing out a faint voice through her clenched teeth. "Still denying it on the brink of death!" Huang Qiqing laughed coldly, exhaled a smoke ring, and got off the bed, saying flatly, "Young Master Xie, shes yours tonight. Remember to transfer the money to my account tomorrow." "Uh... okay." "You... you bastards..." Su Qingqings heart was filled with despair. She never thought Huang Qiqing would collude with Xie Feng against her in such a vile way. "Qingqing, I apologize in advance, I have no choice this time." Xie Feng started unbuckling his belt, speaking seriously, "Think about it, if youre with me, wont you enjoy a lifetime of prosperity?" "Dont even think about it, Ill... Ill kill you..." Tears glistened in Su Qingqings eyes as her reason began to succumb completely to the drugs onslaught. "Qingqing, after tonight, youll see how good I am." Xie Feng said earnestly. Su Qingqing desperately bit her lip, and as warm liquid flowed from the wound, tears streamed down her face. Huang Qiqing watched her like this, feeling inexplicably satisfied, and took a heavy drag from her cigarette. Xie Feng threw his belt to the ground, his eyes gleaming lewdly, about to pounce on Su Qingqing... "Qingqing, Im here to have a drink and take a rest!" A sudden voice made both of their expressions change dramatically. "Damn, so many people?" Ye Huan walked over, surprised, "In the middle of the night, are you planning a Mahjong game?" "Ye... Ye Huan?" Huang Qiqing and Xie Feng looked extremely gloomy, "How are you here?" "Oh, I was too thirsty, came for a drink of water." With that, Ye Huan looked into the room, exclaiming, "Whats wrong with Qingqing?" "Qing... Qingqing has a fever..." Xie Feng replied seriously. "A fever? Then, Young Master Xie, what are you doing unbuckling your belt?" Ye Huans lips curled upward, saying, "Could it be, you drugged her, intending to do something indecent?" As those words were spoken, their pupils shrank; they never expected Ye Huan to appear here. "Ye Huan..." Xie Feng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, speaking earnestly, "Ye Huan, Su Qingqing is really important to me, I promise to give you five million in assets, please... please dont interfere with us." "Young Master Xie, Im a good citizen." Ye Huan said seriously, "Five million, and you want to silence a good citizen? Do you know what youre doing? If the police find out about this, youd be lucky if youre just executed." Xie Feng showed a pained expression, gritting his teeth, "Ye Huan, Ill give you ten million, as long as you dont interfere, you can gain a deep friendship with our Xie family." "Is the friendship of the Xie family very significant?" "I..." Xie Feng was furious, his voice low, "Kid, our Xie family is a top-notch family in the Celestial Sea city, many people want to curry favor with us but have no chance? I advise you to open your eyes a bit more!" "Oh? Is your Xie family that impressive?" "Nonsense!" Xie Feng said proudly, "Our Xie family may not be the richest, but our assets are at least over a billion. Gaining our Xie familys friendship, if you want to make your mark in the business world, youll definitely have smooth sailing. I advise you not to get involved in this mess, just take the ten million and leave, and pretend you didnt see anything today." "What if I say that, in my eyes, your Xie family is nothing?" Ye Huan said with a sly smile. Sar?h the N?vel(F)ire.nt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Xie Feng shouted angrily, "Kid, dont think youre something just because youre some kind of big shot in the underworld! In front of my Xie family, your kind are nothing! Even that Tiger Bro, if I wanted, I could have my family take action and destroy him with ease!" Ye Huan spread his hands, shaking his phone slightly. "I only need one call to destroy your Xie family." Chapter 44 We, the Xie Family, are Bankrupt! Chapter 44: Chapter 44 We, the Xie Family, are Bankrupt!"Hello? Ill give you five minutes, contact the Liu Family and have them terminate all cooperation with the Xie Family, and launch a business war against the Xie Family!" With that said, Ye Huan hung up the phone. The entire room plunged into an eerie silence. Huang Qiqing and Xie Feng exchanged glances and then burst into laughter. What is the Liu Family? The Liu Family was once the leader of the four major families in Celestial Sea City, and even if they have declined and lost their top position, they are still the second of the four a true behemoth! Even if Ye Huan is supposedly a big shot that even Brother Hu is afraid of, so what? In front of the Liu Family, Brother Hu is like an ant, small beyond imagination! Ye Huan? At most, hes just a grasshopper! Commanding the Liu Family to sever all ties and cooperation with the Xie Family? Launch a business war? Just because hes some Ye Huan? Hes simply out of his mind! "Ye Huan, I get what youre trying to do, youre just trying to get more money, right?" Xie Feng sneered, patting Ye Huans shoulder. "Lets be honest, how much would it take for you to turn a blind eye to this?" "Young Master Xie, you dont seem to realize the seriousness of the problem yet?" Ye Huan said with a smile. Xie Feng looked puzzled. A muffled thud sounded in the next moment. "Pfft!" Xie Feng spat out a mouthful of blood and his body flew backward, hitting Huang Qiqing, and the two fell into the hall together. Ye Huan glanced at Su Qingqing out of the corner of his eye. Su Qingqings condition couldnt be worse. She had completely lost her mind, her body like a blazing furnace. If he didnt help her expel the drug from her system, she would likely drop dead within an hour. It looks like time is of the essence... Ye Huan closed the door, clenched a toothpick between his lips, and gazed at the two people on the ground, saying casually, "Tell me, what was your purpose in drugging Su Qingqing? It cant be as simple as a lustful act, right?" "Ye... Ye Huan, you... you dare to hit... hit me..." Xie Feng clutched his kicked abdomen, his eyes icy cold. "Why wouldnt I dare hit you?" Ye Huan stepped on Xie Fengs forehead, speaking coldly, "I dont have time to waste words with you, tell me your purpose." "You dare to..." Xie Feng grimaced through the pain, roaring, "Oppose me, and my Xie Family will make sure youre ground to dust and ashes!" "Your Xie Family can barely protect itself, yet you think you can grind me to dust and ashes?" "Nonsense, who do you think you are? With one phone call, you can destroy my Xie Family? If youre that awesome, Ill eat five tons of crap!" "I really didnt expect it, for the second young master of the Xie Family, you sure do have the talent for deceiving for food and drink, impressive!" Ye Huan applauded, smiling as he spoke. "And what about you?" Ye Huan looked at Huang Qiqing. "Are you going to speak?" "I... I..." Huang Qiqings face showed panic. She was not part of the Xie Family and had no backing. Offending the Big Boss before her was a dead-end! Huang Qiqing hesitated for a while and said, "Xie... Xie Fengs purpose..." "My Xie Family will protect you!" Xie Feng shouted fiercely. Huang Qiqings face immediately lit up with joy. With the Xie Familys protection, what does "Big Boss" amount to? Nothing! With this thought, she shut her mouth, not making another sound. "Do you really believe the Xie Family can protect you?" Ye Huan said with a playful expression, his words layered with meaning. Huang Qiqing averted her gaze, remaining silent, but her meaning was clear. "Two minutes left, before the Xie Family is finished. Id advise you both to speak quickly, instead of wasting my time." Ye Huan spread his hands. The two on the ground chuckled lightly. In their eyes, Ye Huans move was merely a threat. Destroy the Xie Family? Could a mere gang leader accomplish such a thing? Absolutely ridiculous! "Kid, youd better let me go now, or else when I return, whether youre Ye Huan or anyone else, my Xie Family will definitely not spare you!" Xie Fengs face was the epitome of coldness. He had always grown up with a silver spoon and never endured such humiliation of being trampled underfoot, making him extremely aggrieved. "You have one minute left to confess your purpose to me." Ye Huan said calmly. "Kid, Im warning you for the last time, stop spouting nonsense!" "Thirty seconds left, willing to talk yet?" Ye Huan looked at Huang Qiqing. Huang Qiqing wore a mocking expression, laughing coldly, "A jumping clown." "Fifteen seconds." "Ten seconds." "Three seconds." "Times up!" "Are you sure you wont talk?" Ye Huans lips curled upward. "Stop pretending! Isnt the time up? Why havent I seen my Xie Family destroyed yet? Go on, destroy it!" Xie Feng yelled in disdain. At this moment... In Xie Fengs suit pocket, there came the sound of a ringing phone. He flinched involuntarily. "What are you waiting for, answer it." Ye Huan said with a smile. "Ill answer, Ill answer, I just dont believe you can really destroy my Xie Family!" Xie Feng cursed disdainfully, then pulled out his phone. Sar?h the n?vel_Fire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Looking at the caller ID, he shivered again, feeling a surge of extreme unease. "Hello... Dad?" Xie Feng spoke weakly, probing. From the other end of the line came a deep voice of a middle-aged man: "Hows it going?" Hearing his fathers calm tone, Xie Feng sighed in relief. He chuckled and said, "The drug took effect on Su Qingqing, it will be over soon." "Good, nothing unexpected happened, right?" "Unexpected..." Xie Feng glanced at Ye Huan, and with a sinister smile, he got up, brushed off the dust, and said, "There was an unexpected situation, a clueless punk found out what were doing and needs to be dealt with by our family." "As long as you can take Su Qingqing, the family is willing to give all the support it can." "Kid, opposing my Xie Family, your death day approaches!" Xie Feng wore a look of triumph, bursting out laughing. Huang Qiqings lips also curled up, eyes filled with contempt. Just a gang leader, daring to claim he can destroy the Xie Family? Utter nonsense, its laughable! "Dad, let me tell you a joke!" Xie Feng said with a contemptuous look, "This punk has some little fame in the underworld. I originally offered him ten million as hush money. Guess what? Not only did he refuse my offer, he also threatened to wipe out our Xie Family. Its laugh-out-loud absurd!" "What, he said he would wipe out our Xie Family?" Xie Fengs fathers voice turned much more somber, even accompanied by the sound of something breaking. Xie Feng laughed, "Yeah, he even said after one phone call, in five minutes, he could destroy our Xie Family. Isnt that hilarious? Haha!" "Xie Feng, Im going to break your legs!" Xie Fengs father roared, vibrating Xie Fengs eardrums. "Dad, I... I didnt do anything wrong, what... what do you mean?" Xie Fengs lips trembled. He instinctively shifted his gaze to Ye Huan... Seeing the hint of a playful smile on Ye Huans lips, panic surged in Xie Feng, his palms growing cold and sweaty... "Did nothing wrong? Our Xie Family, ruined by you, you wastrel, Im going to beat you to death!!!" Xie Fengs body trembled uncontrollably, his forehead sweating profusely, "Dad, dont scare me, what... what exactly happened?" "The Liu Family announced thirty seconds ago the termination of all cooperation with our Xie Family, demanding repayment of a five-billion loan due in two months!" "The family stocks have been targeted, complete plummet, an instant loss of 2 billion, the combined wealth of our entire family adds up to that sum!" "Our Xie Family is bankrupt!!!" Chapter 45: The Xie Family, Destroyed! Chapter 45: Chapter 45: The Xie Family, Destroyed!"Wha... What? How is this possible!" Xie Feng was dumbfounded, his lips trembled, "Dad, youre... youre joking, right..." "Joking? Im going to break your leg!" With this roar ending, there was a "ding," and the call was disconnected. Xie Feng remained frozen in place, his phone slipping from his now wet palm onto the ground. "Young... Young Master Xie, wha... what happened, what exactly is going on?" Huang Qiqing asked, her face pale. "We... we..." Xie Fengs legs were trembling uncontrollably, cold sweat pouring down his forehead, "Our Xie Family is... bankrupt!" Those words were like a bolt of lightning, exploding in Huang Qiqings mind. The Xie family is bankrupt? A top family in Celestial Sea just declared bankruptcy? This... how is this possible! Huang Qiqing shivered involuntarily, disbelief filling her eyes: "Young... Young Master Xie, are you joking?" "I... I also wish I were just joking." Xie Feng pounded the ground fiercely. Why! Why did the Xie Family go bankrupt! Xie Feng turned his gaze back to Ye Huan, his lips full of bitterness. This "stupid security guard," the so-called "big shot," actually made the Xie Family bankrupt with just one phone call, practically annihilating them! In just a few minutes, he attacked from the stock market, reducing the wealthy Xie Family to rags. His own status as the second young master of the Xie Family had become a complete joke! For nothing else, but for offending him! Who... who is he really! At this moment, Ye Huans lips curled up, his phone swinging in his hand: "I said it, with one call, I could wipe out your Xie Family." Even though both of them had long suspected that Ye Huan was the "mastermind" behind the Xie Familys bankruptcy, their eyes were still filled with deep, lingering shock upon hearing this. Who on earth is Ye... Ye Huan? How could he command the Liu Family in such an authoritative tone? A security guard? Could such a person be a security guard? A big shot? Could a big shot command the Liu Family? Impossible! This man definitely had other hidden identities, and this identity alone was enough to instill fear in everyone! This identity alone was enough for him to destroy any top family in Celestial Sea! Huang Qiqing regretted it. The Xie Family protecting herself? What a joke! In front of Ye Huan, the Xie Family was nothing, it could not even protect itself! Ye Huan was not an ant before the Xie Family, but rather an insurmountable towering tree! A tree that could decide the fate of the Xie Family with a single call! "Ye... Ye Huan, I am willing to confess!" Huang Qiqing clutched Ye Huans leg, crying out, "Its all Xie Feng, Xie Feng ordered me! Last time Xie Feng caused trouble at Tianyun International, Liu Tianyun threatened to report him to the Liu Family. Xie Feng told his dad about this, and his dad told him to solve it himself or else. In a state of panic, he came up with the plan to assault Su Qingqing first, then emotionally persuade her, hoping to develop feelings, and then ask Su Qingqing to plead with Liu Tianyun to spare the Xie Family from Liu Familys retribution!" "No!" Xie Feng kicked Huang Qiqing sharply, hastily saying, "Its all Huang Qiqing, she gave me this idea, then kept urging me, and even procured the drug powder!" "Youre lying!" Huang Qiqing screamed hysterically, "Clearly, you came up with that plan and contacted me, offering to waive my two-million debt plus a fifty-thousand labor fee to harm Su Qingqing!" "Nonsense!" "Say that again, and Ill tear your mouth apart!" Huang Qiqing glared at him, then looked at Ye Huan and begged, "Ye Huan, please believe me, everything I said is true..." "Does it matter whether I believe you or not?" Huang Qiqings face changed slightly, "Didnt you say youd spare me if I revealed my motive?" "When did I say Id spare you?" Ye Huan smiled, "Besides, I was just asking, and you didnt even answer me at first, wasnt that right?" "I... I..." Huang Qiqing stammered, unable to say a single word. "Since youve both confessed." Ye Huans lips curled up, "So tell me, should I call the police to arrest you, or punish you in some other way?" Call the police? Their faces changed drastically. If Ye Huan reported them to the police, based on what they did, their lives would be over! "Why... why would you report us!" Xie Feng gulped, forcing his courage, "What evidence do you have to prove we did this? We... we just happened to be there, right Huang Qiqing!" "Right... right, right, right!" Huang Qiqing quickly agreed, "I didnt say anything just now!" The two exchanged a glance, cunning gleams in their eyes. As long as they denied everything, even calling the police would be useless! Ye Huan wouldnt have evidence! The next moment, they were dumbfounded. As Ye Huan pressed a button, his phone played back their recorded confessions. "You... you recorded us? Despicable!" they shouted in unison, glaring angrily. Sear?h the N?vel?ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "You drugged someone, and youre calling me despicable?" Ye Huan sneered, taking out his phone to dial 110. "Officer, Ive caught two people drugging a woman, attempting to commit a heinous act, the address is XXXX." "Ten minutes? Okay, no problem." The two clutched Ye Huans leg, crying out, "Ye Huan, please, please let us go, were willing to apologize to Minister Su!" "Apologize?" Ye Huan sneered, "I think itll be better for you scum to spend the rest of your life in prison reflecting." With that, Ye Huan kicked them away. Xie Feng and Huang Qiqing had faces ashen with despair, tears streaming uncontrollably down. They regretted deeply, beyond measure! Why resort to such a desperate measure? Why! They knew now, after being caught by the police, their lives would be spent behind bars. How could they accept turning from elite members of high society into prisoners overnight? How could they accept this? Their lives were completely over! Endless regret lingered in their hearts, refusing to disperse. Huang Qiqing, gritting her teeth, tears streamed as she pounded the ground harshly. ... "Thank you for the evidence, citizen. Celestial Sea is fortunate to have citizens like you." "Haha, youre too kind." The officer thanked Ye Huan again before escorting the two away. Ye Huan closed the apartment door. Suddenly, the sound of heavy pounding on a door came from Su Qingqings room. Ye Huans expression changed, rushing to her door and opening it. But upon opening, he saw a woman burning red like a furnace, her eyes a fiery red... "Oh no!" Chapter 46: I’m doing this to save you, so don’t blame me! Chapter 46: Chapter 46: Im doing this to save you, so dont blame me!Su Qingqing pounced on Ye Huan like she was hunting prey, her eyes misty, and fiercely kissed Ye Huans lips. "Su Qingqing, calm down!" Ye Huan yelled sharply, pushing aside Su Qingqings face to stop her from stealing his 669th first kiss. "If you... dare do... anything to me, Ill... kill... kill you..." Su Qingqings words were slurred, yet her lips didnt stay honest. Ye Huan was exasperated. Its clearly you who made the move on me, even using your lips, and now youre the first to accuse? Unbelievable! sea??h th N?vel(F)ire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Brother Huan felt like a big furnace was pressing down on him. Under the effect of the medicine, Su Qingqings body temperature had probably reached an astonishing forty degrees. At this moment, she could still manage a threat; quite miraculous indeed! But if the medicinal effects arent relieved quickly, she would undoubtedly explode and perish. "Ye... Ye Huan, if you... dare do anything rash, I... I wont let it go..." Su Qingqing, suffering, spoke out "threats" again. Ye Huan gritted his teeth, suddenly pushing Su Qingqing aside, then took out a toothpick and swiftly pierced it into her philtrum. The instant the toothpick pierced her philtrum, Su Qingqings wild limb movements halted. Ye Huan carried Su Qingqing to the bathroom, filled the bathtub with cold water, and then placed her inside. As soon as Su Qingqings skin touched the cold water, there was a sizzling sound, and the water seemed almost on the verge of boiling. For strong medicines, cold water is the perfect counter to suppress their effects. "Those two are so despicable," Ye Huan cursed through gritted teeth. Judging by Su Qingqings current condition, they used enough medicine to take down an elephant! It has to be resolved quickly! Ye Huan looked determined. In truth, Brother Huan had no real experience dealing with strong medicines; only the "Meridian Activation Technique" taught by my dog mentor might be suitable. However, this technique has one drawback: it requires massage of every single acupoint... As the saying goes, men and women should not touch... Oh well, lets "take a little loss"... "Minister Su, Im saving you here, dont blame me!" Ye Huan gritted his teeth, swallowed hard, and began to perform the "Meridian Activation Technique". ... "Whew~" Ye Huan exhaled heavily, drenched in sweat, as he ran out of Su Qingqings room. At this moment, Su Qingqing was sleeping soundly on the bed, the medicines effects completely gone. Her state was great, while Brother Huan was in distress! The process of removing the medicine was both a pleasure and torture! The firm mental defenses almost collapsed! An hour later. Walking over the wooden bridge, reaching in front of the S-01 villas entrance, Brother Huan trembled a bit. The lights in the villas hall were still on, while the lights upstairs were off. Indeed, upon entering the villa, Brother Huan saw Liu Tianyun sitting on the sofa, still handling work documents in her hands. Ye Huan sheepishly smiled and said, "Honey, you... you havent slept yet?" "Fine, fifty penalty, and..." Liu Tianyun said coldly, glancing at the time, then let out a cold laugh, "Two forty. Youre back early this time." "It is quite early. Honey, you should also not work too late and sleep early. Ill head to bed first!" Ye Huan smiled, heading toward the room. "Stop." As soon as these words came out, the air seemed to freeze. Ye Huans face was awkward, saying, "Honey, anything else?" "No explanation?" "Explain what?" "You know what." Liu Tianyun said coldly, putting her phone on the coffee table. "Oh, honey, you dont know, Xie Feng is simply wicked beyond belief," Ye Huan sighed and said, "He abuses his status as the young master of the Xie family, attempting indecency towards women in public. Upon discovery, he gets furious, threatening to kill your husband, me." "Really?" "Of course!" Ye Huan was resolute, patting his chest, "As an excellent citizen of the Celestial Sea, I strongly condemned Xie Fengs actions. When he showed no remorse, I called you to help destroy the Xie family." "Ye Huan, are you lying?" Liu Tianyuns eyes were icy, her voice cold, "I dont want to know the real situation, as Ive already said Ill report Xie family to Liu family. Today, Im only here to tell you never to speak in an ordering tone to me, and do not call after midnight, affecting my sleep, and thereby my work status the next day!" Ye Huans mouth twitched, but he nodded anyway. "Also, coming back so late," Liu Tianyun asked casually, "Did you go find a woman?" Upon hearing this, Brother Huan suddenly felt overjoyed! Liu Tianyuns tone, could it be she is jealous as the legend goes? In just two days, Brother didnt do anything, only relying on personal charisma, conquered her? Then couldnt we make two babies, and learn masters ultimate kung fu? Soon rise to the pinnacle of life! Ye Huan cleared his throat, serious: "How could I! Honey, my loyalty to you is unwavering, how could I do that?" Next, Liu Tianyuns reaction was like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing his unrealistic "fantasies". "Whether you went out to find women is irrelevant to me; even if you have ten or a hundred women, its none of my concern." "Moreover, a piece of advice: living with me, please maintain a bit of propriety." Liu Tianyun pinched her nose with disgust: "For example, after finding women, take a shower before coming back; or if I smell this offensive odor again, pack your things and move out of the villa." Ye Huans face was as dark as Bao Qingtian. Could this woman have a dogs nose? Due to helping Su Qingqing expel the medicine from her body, though the medicine is colorless and odorless, it releases an odd stench in interaction with the body, very unpleasant. Brother Huan had already taken several showers, okay? That smell, roughly speaking, should be washed away! Yet this woman could still detect it? Truly ridiculous! "Day after tomorrow, Saturday, is my grandfathers seventieth birthday." "Prepare an appropriate gift; well head there together then." Having said that, Liu Tianyun turned cold and walked upstairs. "Then give me some money; I dont have money for a gift!" Ye Huan shouted loudly, but Liu Tianyun gave no response. The meaning was clear: solve it yourself! Damn! Prepare an appropriate gift? And I have to rely on myself? If it were before, with the wealth accumulated from years of battling in the Dark World, not only could Brother Huan arrange an appropriate gift, he could also arrange the worlds best present, clearly and distinctly! But now all assets were taken away by my dog master, Im penniless! Theres still around a hundred thousand on me, but with that mediocre amount, you can forget about luxury goods; buying something cheap wouldnt be suitable either, this is troublesome. Chapter 47: Dangerous Individual? Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Dangerous Individual?The next day, Ye Huan yawned as he arrived at the security office door, then was astonished. The security guards looked ready for battle, holding electric batons towards the security office. "Good morning, Captain!" The group of security guards stood straight, saluting. "Whats going on?" Ye Huan pointed at the security room. "Reporting, Captain, theres a dangerous person with scissors who broke into your office!" "Scissors? Dangerous person?" Ye Huans face darkened. Could it be... At this moment, the security office door swung open. Su Qingqings face was extremely cold, clutching scissors tightly, she said icily, "Ye Huan, do you want to die lying down or standing up?" "Su... Minister Su, please dont act rashly!" The security guards struggled to swallow, their hands trembling slightly as they held the batons. If this dangerous person were someone else, they would have already used the electric batons! But this "dangerous person" was Su Qingqing, the renowned sales minister of Tianyun Group, who dared provoke her! "Move aside, today Im going to stab Ye Huan!" Su Qingqing said coldly, "If you dont move, youll all be fired!" The security guards faces immediately turned awkward; they couldnt offend either side, stuck in between. "Why are you troubling my subordinates?" Ye Huan waved his hand, saying to the guards, "You can leave now." "Yes, yes, yes!" The security guards, relieved, wiped the cold sweat off their foreheads and quickly left. "Minister Su, last night I took desperate measures to save you!" Ye Huan said earnestly, "If I hadnt intervened, you would have exploded." "Did I need you to save me? Or did I ask you to save me?" Su Qingqings fingers moved slightly. The sound of "snip" echoed, the scissors reflecting chilling light. "Do you mean you were willing to be that-ed by Xie Feng?" Upon hearing this, Su Qingqings face turned ashen with fury, "Whats the difference? Werent you also..." Thinking of this, her anger intensified. She clearly remembered, she was conscious for two seconds last night, and in those two seconds she was... Being massaged! Her entire body was massaged countless times! Then she fainted again, later woke up, and the drug effect had worn off. No doubt about what happened! The chastity shed protected for over twenty years was taken by Ye Huan! Even if he had good intentions, it was unforgivable! "What else? Do you think I that-ed you?" Ye Huans lips curled up, "Minister Su, you have quite an imagination." "Imagination?" Su Qingqing was taken aback, then sneered, "Ye Huan, could it be you did those things but didnt dare admit it?" "Admit what?" Ye Huan helplessly spread his hands, "Minister Su, you havent experienced such things, right? If I really that-ed you last night, today you should be too sore to get out of bed instead of holding scissors to confront me here." Su Qingqing was momentarily stunned, her brows furrowed. Though inexperienced, shed read about such matters. After girls experience such things, they cant walk normally for a short time, usually taking days to recover. She twisted her waist a bit, finding no pain whatsoever. But the drug effect was gone, and she didnt explode, how to explain it? Su Qingqing frowned, "Is it that youre too inadequate, so you used that method and I didnt feel anything?" Even with Ye Huans good temperament, he almost spat two mouthfuls of old blood. This womans logic was too novel! Ye Huan gritted his teeth, "I definitely didnt use that method. If you dont believe, we can go to the hospital for a check-up!" "Lets go, I wont give up until we reach the Yellow River, when you have nothing to say with the check-up report, Ill stab you." ... Celestial Sea City, First Peoples Hospital. Su Qingqing clutched the check-up report, her eyes filled with disbelief. The report actually stated she was... intact, her chastity untouched? This... how could this be! "So, satisfied with the report?" Ye Huan sneered, "I kindly saved you, yet you want to stab me? Really, no conscience!" "I... I didnt expect this would happen!" Su Qingqing turned red in embarrassment. Ye Huan snorted, walking towards the hospitals exit. Su Qingqing followed suit, knowing she was wrong, her face slightly red as she said, "I... I was wrong, I misunderstood you, Im sorry." Ye Huan paused, this woman actually apologized? A miracle! "By the way, if you didnt use that method, what method did you use to remove the drug effect?" Su Qingqing curiously asked. "Did you forget Im a traditional medicine practitioner? Last time you fainted from the toxic mix of ginseng and Tianwinter, I rescued you then too!" Su Qingqing was momentarily stunned, a blush rising to her face. She had indeed forgotten, Ye Huan was a traditional medicine practitioner, also the mentor of the famous physician Zhang Song. But why would treatment involve such a massage? Could it be a dream? Sear?h the N??eFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Su Qingqing frowned slightly, "Let me ask you, how many moles do I have on my body?" "Oh, four, the most noticeable one is on the but..." Ye Huan was speaking, then quickly covered his mouth, swallowing back the word "tocks." Su Qingqing glared angrily; shed indeed been seen by Ye Huan thoroughly! Also, completely massaged by Ye Huan! Thinking of this, she angrily pinched Ye Huans arm and twisted it hard. "Hiss!" Ye Huan inhaled sharply, shaking off Su Qingqing hastily, "I was trying to save you, okay? Thats the only method I have to neutralize your bodys toxins without that-ing you!" "Do you think I didnt suffer losses!" Ye Huan pointed at Su Qingqing, displeased, "Last night while kindly treating you, you not only didnt cooperate, but kissed my face endlessly and kept assaulting me, do you think Im easy to bully!" "I did no such thing!" Su Qingqings voice faltered, eyes darting wildly. At the same time, images of last nights events flooded her mind again, making her furious and ashamed. "Didnt?" Ye Huan sneered, grabbing Su Qingqings left arm, "Then lets go to check, surely theres your fingerprint on me!" "No, no, lets call it even!" Su Qingqing shouted through clenched teeth, her face red enough to drip blood, her heart pounding. If fingerprints were found, where would she put her face! "Glad you know its even!" Ye Huan hummed, walking even faster. "Ye Huan, shall we get married?" Su Qingqings sudden words nearly made Ye Huan stumble, almost falling down the stairs. Ye Huan quickened his pace a bit further. Then, a vendors voice called out. "Selling items, Ming Dynasty kettles, Yuan Dynasty teacups, all selling cheap!" Ye Huan looked towards the voice, his gaze locking onto a small teacup on the far end of the street stall, bright-eyed. Just as luck would have it, no decent gift? Here it is! Chapter 48 Yuan Dynasty Teacup? Chapter 48: Chapter 48 Yuan Dynasty Teacup?"What are you doing? The Civil Affairs Bureau isnt over here!" Su Qingqing panted as she caught up with Ye Huan. Sar?h the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Old man, how much for this thing?" Ye Huan pointed to a teacup on the street vendors stall and asked. "Are you out of your mind? Spending money on something like this? Its obviously a fake inferior product, isnt it?" Su Qingqing said crankily. "Hey, young lady, you cant say that!" A bald old man sitting beside the carpet, in contrast to his shiny head, had a wisp of long white beard. He stroked it and said, "All the antiques here with me are genuine. Out in the market, theyre priceless!" "Pfft!" Su Qingqing said, "Priceless? Then why dont you take them to a pawnshop or auction and sell them!" "You..." The old mans face turned red. After a cold snort, he rebuked, "If you arent buying, then move aside. I dont lack business!" "Hah, I dont even care!" Su Qingqing pouted, "Ye Huan, lets go." Ye Huan picked up the teacup and examined it, asking, "Old man, how much for this cup?" The teacup had some dirt on it, with a golden dragon pattern, but there was no chip on it, at least seventy percent new. "Whoa, kid, I can see youre an extraordinary person with rare insight!" The old man stood up, looking serious, "To be honest, this teacup was made in the Yuan Dynasty, fired at the ancient kilns of Jingdezhen, Huaxias porcelain capital. It was once used by Kublai Khan of the Yuan Dynasty. It took quite an effort for me to get it. Eight hundred and eighty thousand and its yours!" "Eight hundred and eighty thousand? Are you robbing?" Su Qingqing exclaimed again. "Take it or leave it. This girl cant see as far as you can, young man!" The old man turned to Ye Huan, "Young man, this is a chance you wont get again, eight hundred and eighty thousand. You wont suffer a loss, you wont be deceived!" "Pssh, buying it is being deceived!" Su Qingqing spat, grabbing Ye Huans hand, "Lets go, if were late, well have to queue to get the certificate!" Ye Huan didnt pay her any mind and continued to examine the teacup in his hand, clicking his tongue in wonder, "No wonder this porcelain cup from Jingdezhen is perfect in both color and pattern." "Yes, yes, yes!" The old mans face lit up, eyes flashing with a cunning gleam. Another one who thinks they know is about to be fooled, ha ha! "Young man, tell you what, special friend price, sixty-six thousand and its yours!" Ye Huans lips curled up, "Are you sure, just sixty-six thousand?" "Of course!" The old mans face lit up with joy, stroking his beard, "You truly have outstanding talent. If it were others, even at 6,666,000, I wouldnt sell. Sixty-six thousand is as good as giving it to you!" Ye Huans smile widened. At this point, a sarcastic voice rang out. "A clueless and ignorant security captain actually thinks he knows antiques? What a joke!" The door of a Porsche Z896 opened by the street, and Bai Yu got out of the car, sneering, "This cup is at most worth 200 bucks!" The old mans face changed drastically, "Young man, you cant just say that..." Before he could finish, Bai Yu picked up a teapot from the ground, examined it for a while, and said with surprise, "A teapot from the Ming Dynasty?" "Yes, yes, this young master really knows his stuff!" The old man beamed with his eyes squinting. "Two million in the card, password is six ones." Bai Yu tossed out a bank card, his face indifferent, as if two million was nothing to him. The old man took the bank card, overjoyed. He got this teapot for five hundred bucks from another stall, and had been regretting not selling it for a long time. Unexpectedly, he just sold it for two million in an instant! Getting rich quick! Bai Yu surveyed the teapot with satisfaction, nodding approvingly. Although the shape had some differences from teapots, the distribution of dirt was very natural, and the chips were not abrupt, making it obviously an ancient artifact. "Old man, was it sixty-six thousand for this thing?" Ye Huan continued to ask. "Um..." The old man was about to nod but reconsidered. This kid didnt look rich and seemed to have no insight, definitely couldnt afford sixty-six thousand! Might as well earn whatever he could. Even selling for 200 would be a tearful profit of 199! Besides, with two million coming in today, from now on, he could live in leisure without setting up a stall under the wind and sun! "Young man, I just remembered, this cup was actually dug out during a rural river renovation in my childhood, not Kublai Khans imperial cup!" The old man sighed, "But this cup has been with me for decades. Tell you what, if you sincerely want it, take it for two hundred!" Ye Huans face became extremely interesting. Two hundred bucks? Kublai Khans imperial cup is worth just two hundred? He was planning to borrow some money from Liu Tianyun, but it seems unnecessary now. "Old man, are you sure its just two hundred?" Ye Huans lips curled, "Im afraid youll suffer a loss..." "Sigh, Im suffering a loss!" The old man sighed deeply, "After all, this cup has been with me for quite a while, theres some sentiment involved, handing it over to you is really a bit sad for me. Tell you what, add a hundred, and take it for three hundred, itll also ease my sorrow!" But inwardly, he was overjoyed. Ive seen dumb people, but not this dumb! Buying a one-dollar store item for two hundred, and hes afraid Id lose out? Truly rolling in money! "Really just three hundred?" Ye Huan asked again. "Ye Huan, are you crazy?" Su Qingqing was speechless. Three hundred could easily buy a whole set of such tea sets at the supermarket, yet this fool Ye Huan buys one and still fears this crook would lose money? Bai Yu also burst into laughter. "Youd spend three hundred on this thing?" Bai Yu mocked with a sneer, "Even for ten bucks, this swindler would sell it to you, what an eye-lacking clown!" "Thats still better than treating a chamber pot as a treasure." Ye Huan mocked. Bai Yus face turned ashen with rage instantly. "So you think youre badass buying a street stall item for three hundred?" Bai Yu was unhappy, pointing to the "teapot" cradled in his arms, "A chamber pot? This is a specially crafted Ming Dynasty teapot. Do you understand? Can you even make sense of it?" "Ming Dynasty?" Ye Huans lips curled up, "Let me remind you, thats just a chamber pot, and its less than ten years old!" "Nonsense, what do you know?" Bai Yu sneered, "Im a member of the Celestial Sea Antique Appraisal Association, a seasoned antique appraisal expert. From the distribution of the dirt to the depth and distribution of the chips, this is a flawless Ming Dynasty antique worth two million!" "Yes, yes, this young masters right!" The old man chimed in, "No wonder you can spot the dignity of this teapot at a glance, turns out youre a seasoned antique appraisal expert, truly admirable!" Bai Yu listened to such flattery and nodded with satisfaction. Then he looked at the teacup in Ye Huans hand, sneering, "Yuan Dynasty teacup? Utterly laughable, this cup doesnt have any chips, and even the dirt is soft and wet, obviously some trash just buried in the ground for a few minutes!" "Could it be that the title of seasoned antique appraisal expert was bought with money?" Ye Huans lips curled up, "Let me tell you, this is indeed a Yuan Dynasty teacup, and also Kublai Khans imperial cup." "Haha!" Bai Yu laughed uproariously, tears running down his face, "Yuan Dynasty? Kublai Khan? Hahaha! Chapter 49: President of the Antique Appraisal Association—Zhang Hongyu Chapter 49: Chapter 49: President of the Antique Appraisal AssociationZhang HongyuAfter laughing for a full two minutes, Bai Yu took out five bills and handed them to the old man. Sar?h the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Old man, tell him, where did you get this cup from!" "I... I got this cup from a dollar store, spent a buck on it!" The old man took the money and said with an awkward smile, "But this cup is great for drinking tea, Ill sell it to you for five bucks, how about that?" "Five bucks? You sure? I think youll regret it." Ye Huan said meaningfully. "Just five bucks, once you pay, you take it!" the old man said. "Then dont regret it." Ye Huan said with a smile, pulling out a red bill and handing it to the old man, "Heres a hundred, keep the change." The old man took the money, his face full of joy. Its his first time seeing someone this dumb! Rushing to give money away and still thinking hes made a profit? "Ye Huan, I get it, poor people all dream of getting rich overnight. But the art of antique appraisal isnt something a poor man can dabble in." Bai Yu sneered, "But if you kneel and call me father a couple of times, I might just teach you the art of appraisal." Ye Huan mocked, "Your so-called art of appraisal? The kind that treats a chamber pot as an antique? Thats something I dont want to learn." "I was actually planning to teach you some appraisal skills, but clearly, youre not worthy of learning it. Deserve to be poor your whole life, ungrateful!" Bai Yu cursed, full of disdain. "Precisely, an ungrateful fool, treating a broken cup as treasure!" The old man puffed up with pride and cursed at Ye Huan. Su Qingqing couldnt stand it any longer. After shaking her head, she whispered, "Ye Huan, stop embarrassing yourself, lets go." "Lets go." Ye Huan smiled, feeling quite pleased. Spending a hundred to buy a treasure worth a billion, such good luck. The two turned to leave, when a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, who was searching for antiques on the carpet, suddenly froze. He looked at the teapot in Bai Yus hand, his expression extremely excited, his voice trembling slightly, "A Ming Dynasty Imperial Teapot?" "Imperial Teapot?" Bai Yu was stunned for a moment. Upon seeing the middle-aged man, he rubbed his eyes and exclaimed, "Chairman Zhang?" The middle-aged man was none other than Zhang Hongyu, chairman of the Celestial Sea Antique Appraisal Association. "Young Master Bai?" Zhang Hongyu looked at the teapot in Bai Yus hand and exclaimed, "This... this Ming Dynasty Imperial Teapot, could it be something you found?" "Yes." Bai Yu nodded and then shivered, "Chairman Zhang, you say this is a Ming Dynasty Imperial Teapot?" "Could... could you let me take a look to confirm?" "Of course!" Bai Yu handed over the teapot without hesitation, his heart already filled with excitement. Zhang Hongyu took the teapot, pulled out a magnifying glass, and examined it carefully, then exclaimed, "This... this is indeed a Ming Dynasty Imperial Teapot, at least three hundred years old, never expected Young Master Bai to find such a Divine Artifact among a pile of junk, youve hit the jackpot!" "What!" Bai Yu was so excited he jumped up. Originally, he only thought the teapot was made in the Ming Dynasty. He didnt expect it to be an Imperial Teapot? If its an Imperial Teapot used by the emperor, then its price would soar! The old man who owned the stall showed envy, jealousy, and hatred on his face. An Imperial Teapot, thats like the top of the antique world, casually worth over a billion, yet it got bought for two million, such a loss! "Two fools, treating a broken chamber pot as an antique, thats rare indeed." Ye Huan sneered out loud. As soon as he said this, Su Qingqing hurriedly covered Ye Huans mouth, looking anxious. She recognized this middle-aged man, isnt he the antique appraisal guru who often appears on TV shows? Its said his appearance fee per episode is tens of thousands or even over a million! Its rumored that whenever a new emperors tomb is discovered, the official senior archaeology team always invites him to join, to quickly determine the tombs age and the emperors identity with his rich appraisal experience. And Ye Huan called such a person a fool? He must be crazy! "Ye Huan, do you know who this person is? You actually called him a fool?" Ye Huan shrugged, "Treating a chamber pot as a treasure, what else if not a fool?" "Ye Huan, you actually dare to insult Chairman Zhang?" Bai Yu roared with rage, "Do you know what status Chairman Zhang holds? Celestial Sea Antique Appraisal Association chairman! He already said this is a Ming Dynasty Imperial Teapot, priceless, do you mean to say your appraisal skills are better than his?" "If he really takes this chamber pot as a treasure..." Ye Huan said seriously, "Then I am indeed better than him." "Pfft!" Su Qingqing almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Insulting the chairman of the appraisal association as a fool on the street? And saying his appraisal skills are superior? If this gets out, Ye Huan would definitely be drowned by the association members spit! "Young man, you called me a fool?" Zhang Hongyus face darkened. "If you mistake a chamber pot for an Imperial Teapot, what else are you but a fool?" Ye Huan pointed at the "Imperial Teapot" in Bai Yus arms, taunting him. "Nonsense!" Bai Yu was furious, "This is clearly an Imperial Teapot, certified by Chairman Zhang as a Ming Dynasty Imperial Teapot!" He was really pissed off. As a member of the appraisal association, finding a top-quality antique like a Ming Dynasty Imperial Teapot should be a great honor! Yet now, a little brat who knows nothing about appraisal is mocking it as a chamber pot on the street? Who can tolerate that! The more Bai Yu thought about it, the angrier he got, "Ye Huan, you like to show off? Come on, tell me how my Imperial Teapot looks like a chamber pot!" "Yes young man, with my extensive experience, this teapots workmanship and other details all prove it to be a Ming Dynasty Imperial Teapot!" Zhang Hongyus face also wasnt pleasant. As a guru of the antique appraisal world, he is respected wherever he goes, and now hes being insulted on the street by this young man as a fool? Absurd! "You dont believe this is a chamber pot?" Ye Huans lips curled up, "Then how about we make a bet!" "Bet? Sure, you name the stakes!" Bai Yu sneered. "If I prove this thing is a chamber pot, you call me dad, and vice versa, how about that?" Bai Yu laughed coldly, "Sure, if youre eager to recognize me as your dad, although Im getting the short end, Im in a good mood today, an extra son is no big deal!" "Are you so confident this is an Imperial Teapot?" Ye Huan chuckled lightly. "Why all the talk, are you scared?" "Enough said, bring the teapot over." Ye Huan said with a smile. "Acting so pretentious, just wait and see how embarrassed and humiliated youll be!" Bai Yu handed over the "Imperial Teapot", crossing his arms and sneering repeatedly. "Actually, appraising this thing is very simple..." Ye Huan said with a smile. The next second, Brother Huan suddenly lifted the "Imperial Teapot" over his head and smashed it down. "Bang!" Chapter 50: Emperor Taizu’s Imperial Cup! Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Emperor Taizus Imperial Cup!"Kid, what are you doing? This is a Ming Dynasty imperial ewer. Stop right now!" "Ye Huan, how dare you lay a harmful hand on my imperial ewer? Im going to kill you!" Zhang Hongyu and Bai Yu shouted angrily in unison. But the next second, their angry expressions froze on their faces. This Ming Dynasty "imperial ewer" shattered the moment it touched the ground. At the same time, a foul smell wafted from the light yellow liquid seeping out from the fragments... "Gentlemen, is this what you call anMing Dynasty imperial ewer?" Ye Huan sneered repeatedly. Their faces turned incredibly pale. Imperial ewer? This was clearly just a chamber pot still containing "unknown" liquid! Moreover. Ming Dynasty? If it really were a Ming Dynasty chamber pot, after hundreds of years, the liquid inside would have evaporated long ago... "Look at this as well." Ye Huans lips curled upward as he nudged the pieces on the ground with his foot. The bottom of the chamber pot flipped over, revealing a line of English engraved clearly on it. MADE-IN-CHINA! This line of English made the two mens faces turn ashen; they wished they could find a hole in the ground to crawl into. "If I say youre idiots now, would you dare to argue?" Ye Huan mocked. "I... I..." Bai Yus face was ashen, unable to utter a word. "How... how could this be? How could I be wrong? It should be... be a Ming Dynasty imperial ewer without a doubt!" Zhang Hongyus eyes were filled with disbelief. "With your appraisal skills, and being the president of the Antique Appraisal Association? Your association might as well disband." Ye Huan kicked the fragments on the ground, sneering, "The surface pattern and clay texture might look quite natural, and there are no issues with the detailed chips on the ceramic pieces, but its only flaw is that its too real, do you understand?" Too real? Indeed, the details and patterns on real antiques are mostly normal, but only mostly; there will always be slightly abnormal aspects! Fake real, truly fake! The three words "too real" were like being enlightened, suddenly illuminating Zhang Hongyus mind, his face became extremely excited. "Thank you, sir, for the guidance!" Zhang Hongyu clasped his hands together, exclaimed loudly, and then dropped to his knees right away! His actions left everyone else dumbfounded. What... what is happening! A respected figure in the antique appraisal world actually kneeled before Ye Huan, even thanking him for his guidance? Ye Huan could instruct Zhang Hongyu? Impossible! Bai Yus throat moved with difficulty as he hastily helped Zhang Hongyu, saying, "President Zhang, what are you doing? This kid knows nothing about antique appraisal, why are you calling him master!" "What do you know!" Zhang Hongyu shook off Bai Yus hand, shouting, "This gentlemans appraisal skills are at least three levels higher than mine; he is the true master of antique appraisal! If you dare insult him again, I will definitely expel you from the Celestial Sea Antique Appraisal Association!" "I!" Bai Yus face was filled with distress. He had no idea what was going on. What is Zhang Hongyu doing, saying Ye Huans appraisal skills are better than his? Senile! Ye Huan is just a security team leader, how could he be so skilled! Tea cup! Yes, the tea cup! Bai Yu pointed anxiously at the tea cup in Ye Huans hand, saying, "President Zhang, youre mistaken, how could he know anything about antique appraisal? Look at the tea cup in his hand; it was something this old man got from a one-yuan store, but he treated it as the imperial tea cup of the Yuan founder." Zhang Hongyu looked at the porcelain cup in Ye Huans hand, completely stunned, his lips quivering. "Yuan... Yuan celadon?" "Oh, you do have some insight, seems like youre not entirely an idiot." Ye Huan said with a smile. "Yuan celadon?" Bai Yu frowned slightly. As a member of the Antique Appraisal Association, he naturally knew Yuan celadon was porcelain produced in Jingdezhen during the Yuan Dynasty. Nowadays, even a shard of Yuan celadon could fetch a courtyard house in the Second Ring of Yanjing! This trash cup can be an imperial Yuan celadon cup? Impossible! "President Zhang, this thing is just something this old man bought randomly from a one-yuan store, how could it be Yuan celadon?" "Indeed, its just a piece of junk." The old man said with an awkward smile. "What do you know!" Zhang Hongyu shouted in anger, then looked at the porcelain cup again. His throat moved with difficulty as he asked, "Could... could I have a look?" Ye Huan said nothing, handing over the porcelain cup. Zhang Hongyu took the porcelain cup, his eyes revealing a look of shock, his hands trembling, extremely excited: "During the era of the Yuan founder, the Yuan celadon imperial cup used by Kublai Khan, worth at least five billion!" "President Zhang, you must have gotten it wrong; how could such roadside trash be a Yuan celadon imperial cup?" Bai Yus heart skipped a beat, his tone had become quite unnatural, "This porcelain cup is perfectly intact, and its surface is covered in wet clay, how could it be a Yuan Dynasty antique?" "What do you know!" "The wet clay is because it has never been buried underground for long, but rather always remained intact, passing down through folk hands." "Precisely because of this, its value should be doubled, at least ten billion!" "This porcelain cup is engraved with nine lands, and a red dragon, symbolizing the dragons roar across Jiuzhou, a blessing to Huaxia!" "After my appraisal, I can confirm with 100% certainty..." "It is the imperial cup used by the founder of the Yuan Dynasty without a single flaw, an invaluable treasure!" As these words came out, Bai Yus legs went weak, and his arms started to tremble: "President Zhang, you... youre not mistaken, right?" "Me, mistaken? Impossible!" Zhang Hongyu waved his sleeve grandly and said coldly, "If Im still mistaken this time, I should retire!" "Boom!!!" Zhang Hongyus words were like a bolt of lightning, exploding in everyones ears. Including Su Qingqing, Bai Yu and the old stall owner were all shocked. This... this trash porcelain cup, could it really be a Yuan Dynasty celadon cup? And whats more, a flawless imperial cup? This... how is this possible! They looked at Ye Huan, staring at his ambiguous smile, their eyes filled with disbelief. This unassuming "pauper" actually noticed the clue about the porcelain cup at a glance! Combined with the fact that he recognized the true nature of the "imperial teapot," this showed his appraisal skills were absolutely high, even higher than the President of the Antique Appraisal Association! Stunned! Beyond stunned! While shocked, Bai Yus face was extremely pale, unable to accept the truth, muttering "impossible" repeatedly, retreating continuously. Did I just say I would teach him appraisal art? His appraisal skills are even better than President Zhang, and Im nothing but a joke in front of him! The old man was filled with regret, sitting on the ground muttering incoherently, appearing slightly deranged. No wonder he kept asking me if I was sure, afraid Id make a loss or even regret it. His appraisal ability is stronger than Zhang Hongyu, the appraisal master! Buying a multibillion Yuan Dynasty celadon imperial cup from me for just a hundred bucks, is he someone with low intelligence? The biggest fool is me! What a loss! A ten billion worth item, just picked up at a bargain! The old man wished he could jump into a river and end it all! The whole place was silent, except for the sound of people swallowing nervously. A few minutes later, Ye Huan broke the silence: "Young Master Bai, shout it out." "Shout what?" "Of course, call me dad, werent you betting with me?" Ye Huans lips curled, "Come on, I proved the imperial teapot you mentioned is just a chamber pot, arent you going to honor your promise? Although accepting you as my son is a loss for me, but since Im in a good mood today, Ill do it!" "I... I..." Bai Yus face was so gloomy it could drip water. Calling Ye Huan, who opposed him several times, "dad"? Too humiliating! "Young Master Bai, are you planning to break your word?" Ye Huan said meaningfully, "I think youd better shout quickly, Im in a hurry!" "You... you kid, I advise you to stop here!" Bai Yu gazed at Ye Huan, full of threats, gritting his teeth, "Im the Bai Familys young master, would you dare to acknowledge me as your son!" "Why wouldnt I dare?" Ye Huan shrugged indifferently. Sar?h the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Young Master Bai, I advise you to fulfill the bet, we members of the Antique Appraisal Association must be honest!" Zhang Hongyus voice was deep, "If you insist on breaking the promise, I have the right to expel you from the Association!" "I..." Bai Yus face changed dramatically. He spent a lot of money to get into the Antique Appraisal Association, and usually, he could buy many antiques at low prices, he couldnt get expelled! After hesitating for a long time, Bai Yu gritted his teeth, squeezing out a sound: "Dad." "Haha, such a good son, heres some pocket money for you, go spend it!" Ye Huan said with a cheerful smile, flicking a red note onto Bai Yus face. From childhood to now, only he would throw money at others faces, when has anyone thrown money at his face? Bai Yu boiled with anger, throwing a punch at Ye Huan: "Ye Huan, I want to kill you!!" "You brat, you actually want to commit patricide?" Ye Huan slapped him to the ground, then brushed off his hands disdainfully, "What an unfilial son." Having said that, Ye Huan took his leave. Su Qingqing followed after him, while Zhang Hongyu watched Ye Huans back, secretly clenching his fist. Someday, I must reach that level of appraisal skill! Bai Yu lay on the ground, his eyes full of malice. Suddenly, he looked towards the old man. "Y-you... what are you going to do..." The old man was filled with unease. "Do what? Pay me back my money!" Bai Yu cursed loudly, kicking the old man down and taking back his bank card before angrily leaving. "Ye Huan, I want you dead!!!" Bai Yu started his car, utterly enraged, his face looking as grim as a demon. The old man sat on the ground, his eyes vacant. Not only did he sell the Yuan Dynasty celadon imperial cup for a hundred bucks, but he also lost that two million? A dream of overnight riches, just a joke? Timely, Ye Huans figure floated into his mind. Why did I have to mock that young man? If I had just let him buy it for 660,000, nothing would have happened! And now, nothing is left!! Why! "Pfft!" The old man, consumed by anger, spat out a mouthful of old blood and passed out. Chapter 51: Forced Marriage? Chapter 51: Chapter 51: Forced Marriage?Celestial Sea City, a certain caf. "Su Qingqing, how many times do I need to tell you? Im really married!" Ye Huan was full of black lines. In this day and age, is there still the belief that if someone sees your body, you have to marry them? The remnants of feudalism are so detestable! "Are you going to tell me again that your wife is President Liu Tianyun?" Su Qingqing sipped her coffee and let out a cold laugh. Ye Huan nodded seriously with a sincere face. Su Qingqing, exasperated, laughed instead: "Can you stop daydreaming? Even if you want to fantasize, at least think of something realistic. What man wouldnt want to marry President Liu?" "Im serious..." Before Ye Huan could finish, Su Qingqing interrupted angrily, "Stop talking nonsense. Ive got the looks, Ive got the figure. Would marrying me be an injustice to you?" With that, she slapped a household registration book and a pair of scissors on the table: "Two choices for you. Either marry me, or Ill chop you to pieces. You decide!" Ye Huans mouth twitched. How come telling the truth these days only makes people disbelieve you? The main issue was that he wasnt carrying his marriage certificate with Liu Tianyun, otherwise, he would have thrown that little red book right in her face! Seeing Ye Huan remain silent made Su Qingqing even more furious: "Still unwilling? I really dont know what youre thinking. Such a great opportunity in front of you and you dont take it, youre such a pig! Do you know how many suitors I have lined up from the east side of the city to the west?" Ye Huan shrugged helplessly, "Its not that I dont want to, its that Im really married!" Su Qingqing rubbed her aching forehead and sighed helplessly. In her view, Ye Huans delusional symptoms were very serious, so serious that he should be treated at a psychiatric hospital! Countless young masters from Celestial Sea Citys prestigious families wanted to win over Liu Tianyun. But who could succeed? Countless men hoped that Liu Tianyun would become their wife, but who could achieve this goal? No one! "Ye Huan, I think you really should see a psychiatrist..." Su Qingqing said earnestly. Ye Huans face darkened: "I..." "Alright, I wont force you." Su Qingqing downed her cup of coffee, her face blushing slightly, "We can first develop feelings, date for a while. Once I cure you of your daydreaming issue, well get the certificate!" Date for a while? This could work, at worst, he could just stall for time. Later, he could show her the marriage certificate with Liu Tianyun to definitely dispel this womans idea of forcing marriage. Ye Huan nodded, "Since youre so insistent, Ill give it a try with you then." "Give it a try?" Su Qingqing was furious again. She had once been the campus belle of Celestial Sea University, pursued by countless wealthy and handsome men. Now she had fallen to this? Only after she crazily demanded did he agree to give it a try with her? A strong sense of frustration filled Su Qingqings heart as she gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, since were dating, shouldnt you reveal where you got your medical skills and treasure appraisal abilities from?" "Taught by my master." "Duh, I knew you had a master!" Su Qingqing pouted, "Im asking who your master is, he must be a famous figure, right?" "Famous?" Ye Huan pondered for a moment while resting his chin on his hand, then replied, "Not really famous, just an old man living in the mountains." A high recluse? Su Qingqing nodded, Ye Huans medical skills and treasure appraisal abilities were indeed extraordinary; only such a high recluse could have trained such a disciple. "Then what do your parents do?" Su Qingqing continued to ask. "I have no parents. I grew up in an orphanage and was later adopted by my master." Su Qingqing was stunned for a moment, her expression turning awkward, "Right... Im sorry, I didnt mean to." "Its okay." Ye Huan took a sip of coffee, helplessly saying, "Minister Su, we dont have to talk like its an interrogation, do we? Isnt this a waste of time? Besides, were sneaking out during work hours." Work hours? Upon hearing this, Su Qingqing suddenly slammed the table, "Oh no, I have a meeting in an hour, I need to get back to the company!" After paying the bill, the two hurriedly left the caf and took a taxi straight to Tianyun International. ... Celestial Sea City, Bai Familys mansion. "Hey, Ahu?" Bai Yu was full of anger, holding his phone, "Do me a favor, some punk offended me, I want him dead!" "Young Master Bai, someone dared to offend you?" A clattering sound came from the other end of the line, "They must have a death wish. Give me his identity, and Ill take care of him!" "Just a clueless punk. As long as you take action, hes easy pickings!" Bai Yus face slightly improved, "I have a plan now, and need your cooperation..." "Young Master Bai, I get it, its simple, I guarantee the task is done!" "Alright, after this is over, half a million will be transferred to your account!" With that, Bai Yu hung up, a sinister smile forming on his face. Treasure appraisal? Just a crooked path, whats its use? Ridiculous! In front of me, Bai Yu, youre just an ant, Ye Huan, a mere ant that can be squashed at will! This time, I want you to lose face in front of Liu Tianyun! Imagining the look of disgust Liu Tianyun would give Ye Huan, coupled with the "grateful" look shed give him, Bai Yu burst into laughter. At this moment, a man walked over. "Xiao Yu, whats making you so happy?" the man said. "Big brother, youre here." Bai Yu smiled, "You know Liu Tianyuns fianc, right? He offended me, and Im planning to teach him a lesson!" "Liu Tianyuns fianc? Ive seen his profile, hes currently the head of security at Liu Tianyuns company?" "Yes, exactly, its him!" Bai Yu nodded, his mouth forming a cold arc, "But it doesnt matter, this afternoon, Ill make sure he loses everything!" "Be careful, dont go overboard." White Impermanence said lightly, "Soon, including Tianyun International, the entire Liu Family will fall into our hands. By then, Liu Tianyun will be your woman." Bai Yus face was full of excitement: "Could it be..." White Impermanence patted Bai Yus shoulder, his eyes cold and meaningful, "Liu Aimin, his days are numbered..." ... At Tianyun International, Ye Huan didnt go to the security office, instead, he was happily watching "war movies" in Su Qingqings office on her computer. "Watching stuff like that in broad daylight, be careful you dont get a stye!" Su Qingqing was pouring hot water into her cup, her face red, gritting her teeth as she scolded. "Little Qingqing, youve watched quite a bit too, plus Im watching with the intention of learning!" Ye Huan looked serious, "The more I learn now, the happier well be in the future!" Little Qingqing? Sar?h the ovelFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Happier in the future? Su Qingqing stood there frozen, even though the hot water overflowed from her cup, she remained dazed. Regaining her senses seconds later. As an adult, especially as a "viewing master," how could Su Qingqing not understand the innuendo in Ye Huans words? Her face flushed to her ears, overwhelmed with embarrassment and anger. Just then, Ye Huan exclaimed: "Wow, this move is incredible, worth learning!" "Die!" Su Qingqing was incomparably shamed and angry, throwing a paper cup at Ye Huan. Water splashed all over Brother Huans face as she slammed the door on her way out! "Bang!" The loud slam of the door echoed, Ye Huan wiped the tea off his face, his eyes squinted, before suddenly flicking out a toothpick with his right hand. With a "whoosh" sound of air being cut. The toothpick accurately pierced into the gap in the ceiling. From the gap, wisps of white smoke emerged... Chapter 52: Oh, quite lively, huh? Chapter 52: Chapter 52: Oh, quite lively, huh?Ye Huan reached up with his right hand. A small eavesdropping device pierced by a toothpick immediately appeared in his hand. "Seems like Tianyun International is really in a tough spot..." Ye Huans eyes gradually narrowed into slits, his sharp gaze fixed on this ZHT-7 model American military eavesdropping device. The ZHT-7, with its excellent performance, can sell for hundreds of thousands even in the Dark World. Its in such high demand that it can be sold instantly even if the price goes up a bit. If its hard to get in the Dark World, imagine getting it in the forbidden zone of the Dark WorldHuaxia. Its as hard as climbing to the skies! If theyre eavesdropping on Liu Tianyun, using this device is understandable; after all, shes the president. But Su Qingqing is just the head of the sales department and hasnt truly entered the power center of Tianyun International. Yet she can be monitored with this thing? The other party is really going all out! Ye Huan crushed it into powder and scattered it into the trash can. "Knock, knock, knock." Three knocks sounded on the door, and a chubby man in security uniform pushed the door open. Seeing Ye Huan, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Captain Ye, I finally found you!" Ye Huan looked at his panting appearance and was very surprised, "Whats the rush? Looking for me for something?" "Of course theres something!" The chubby man adjusted his hat brim with an anxious look on his face, "Captain Ye, youd better sneak out the back door quickly; a bunch of thugs have broken into the company, making a mess at the front desk, and theyre calling your name to...to have you killed!" "Whats going on?" Ye Huan frowned slightly, "We have so many security guards in our team; cant anyone stop them?" "Not only did they not stop them, but they also joined the thugs in smashing things because the thug leader is their former boss!" The chubby man looked panic-stricken: "And each of them has a machete or an iron bar in hand; who dares to stop them? Captain Ye, youd better run. Losing a job is better than losing your life!" "How come you came looking for me? Arent you afraid of being implicated?" "Im a security guard of Tianyun; if I switch sides despite getting my livelihood from them, wouldnt I be an ingrate?" The chubby man said this with an embarrassed look on his face, "But Im timid and...dare not stop them, so I came to find you." Ye Huan looked serious: "Young man, your unique talent is a sure sign of future greatness! Do well, and Ill promote you to deputy captain later!" With that, Ye Huan walked out of the office with his hands behind his back. "Deputy captain?" The chubby man first looked delighted, then turned pale with shock. Did Ye Huan just enter the elevator? And the elevator is going down? Isnt this heading to his death! ... "Where is your security captain? Call him out here!" Tiger Bro cursed loudly, swinging an iron rod to smash a glass panel. "We...we dont know!" The two front desk girls were filled with terror, hugging each other trembling in a corner. "Dont know? Id like to see how long that boy can hide!" Tiger Bro exhaled a puff of smoke and waved his hand: "Smash everything until that boy comes out!" Including the Tianyun International security guards, more than twenty little followers either held machetes or iron bars, smashing and slashing at whatever they saw! The luxurious lobby of Tianyun International was now in utter chaos. Glass shards scattered everywhere, stuffing from sofas pulled out, and some little followers even openly whipped out "guns", standing on the sofas laughing heartily, comparing who could pee the farthest with the wind. The air was filled with a pungent odor, and the scene was chaotic. The front desk girls pressed their lips tight, closing their eyes, fearing what might happen next. "Ding!" The elevators green light signaled, and Tang Yao came down with a group of male employees. The male employees all appeared indignant, filled with righteous anger, but the moment they saw Tiger Bros group smashing things, they deflated, showing panic. "What are you doing!" Tang Yao shouted angrily, "Stop this immediately, or well call the police!" She was extremely furious; since the founding of Tianyun International, this kind of vile incident had never happened before! "I said, call out your security captain. Ill break both his legs, and then Ill leave." Tiger Bro puffed out a smoke ring, his eyes gleaming malevolently, and he smiled wickedly: "Or you could accompany me, then maybe Ill stop." "Go to hell!" Tang Yao trembled with anger, glaring at the security guards: "What about you, why are you wearing Tianyuns security uniforms, yet abetting the villains!" The security guards eyes dodged, looking embarrassed. After all, such traitorous behavior was indeed disgraceful. Sear?h the n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Secretary Tang...we social folks value loyalty." A security guard spoke awkwardly, "Tiger Bro is here for Captain Ye; have him come out, and itll be fine!" Captain Ye? Tiger Bro frowned slightly; that security captain has the surname Ye? How does that sound a bit familiar? No matter; there are so many people with the surname Ye, of course, hed know some, thats why it sounds familiar. Just do it! "Why stop? Keep smashing!" Tiger Bro shouted harshly. The underlings, upon orders, swung their iron rods with even more vigor in their destruction. Tang Yao looked back at the male employees behind her and commanded sharply: "Go up and stop them!" "Who dares move!" Tiger Bro roared, glaring with his fierce eyes and aiming a baseball bat at the male employees, an unmistakable murderous aura emanating. The male employees were all white-collar workers, used to living affluent lives, and considered themselves respectable, never having dealt with street thugs. They were petrified instantly by Tiger Bros menacing aura. They were certain this burly thug leader had killed people before! "Come on, stop us, I dare you?" Tiger Bro taunted disdainfully, "Bunch of cowards!" The male employees lips trembled, uttering no words of defiance. "What are you afraid of, get them!" Tang Yao yelled in frustration at their cowardice, but it was of no use. "Secretary Tang...they say solving the problem requires addressing the root cause. Lets get that security captain to deal with them." The male employees were panic-stricken, whispering, "Moreover, this situation clearly results from that reckless security captain offending them; why should we clean up his mess?" "How can you all be so gutless!" Tang Yao was extremely frustrated at their cowardice. But her anger flared further inside. How did Ye Huan provoke such dangerous people and bring trouble to the company? "Achoo! Whats happening, is there another beauty silently expressing her love for me?" This sudden voice captured everyones attention. In the lobby, everyones gaze turned towards the elevator. The elevator doors opened, and Ye Huan stepped out, wiping his nose as he walked over. "Oh, what a lively scene?" Chapter 53 Bullying the Weak and Fearing the Strong Chapter 53: Chapter 53 Bullying the Weak and Fearing the Strong"Kid, what the hell did you do to bring such a big trouble to the company?" "Its all because of you, causing some big shots to come and smash our company lobby. Their time is so precious, how could a little security guard like you waste it?" "Exactly, have you even looked at yourself? Daring to provoke someone like Brother Hu, are you looking for death?" "I think we need to report you to the company and get rid of a troublemaker like you from Tianyun International!" Originally cowardly male employees, seeing Ye Huan, the "little security guard" arrive, became filled with resentment. They verbally attacked Ye Huan ferociously, revealing their cowardly nature. "Are you sure you want to report and then fire me?" Ye Huan put his hands in his pockets and smiled. "Nonsense!" A male employee shouted angrily, "You, a stinking security guard, dared to upset Brother Hu? You deserve to die, no one can save you!" With that, he walked towards Brother Hu with a fawning face, "Brother Hu, this is the person you are looking for, our companys security captainYe Huan. Do as you please, he is no longer related to our company, I will apply to the company to fire him!" Ye Huan frowned slightly, "Dude, outsiders come to our company to smash things, you dont stop them, and you still help them?" "Outsiders? Brother Hu is a valued guest of our company! If you hadnt upset him, would he be so angry?" The male employee pointed at Ye Huan, accusing continuously, "Just wait to be fired!" "Yes, just wait to be fired!" The other male employees shouted angrily in unison. "Ill ask you once again, you really want to fire me?" Ye Huans face showed a meaningful look. "Nonsense, youre just a stinking security guard. As long as we report it, youll be in deep trouble!" The male employees were arrogant, no longer fearing Brother Hu and others as before. Ye Huan looked at Tang Yao seriously, "Little bunny, announce it, fire them." Little bunny? Giving Secretary Tang a nickname? This guy is asking for it! The male employees faces lit up with joy. As long as Ye Huan is dealt with properly, not only could they please this street boss, but also spare Secretary Tang a troublesome matter! This is a major achievement! The opportunity for promotion and salary increase is right in front of them! "Let Secretary Tang fire us? Who do you think you are, just a stinking security guard, having such authority? Ridiculous!" The male employees sneered, "Well report to the president right now to get you fired!" With that, they took out their phones, collectively began writing a "complaint letter," preparing to accuse Ye Huan. "I announce, you are fired." Tang Yao suddenly said, leaving them all dumbfounded. In the next second, Brother Hus calloused hand was raised. "Slap! Slap! Slap!" The loud sounds of slaps rang, and the male employees covered their burning cheeks and fell to the ground, wailing in confusion. "Kneel!" Ye Huan said coldly. Brother Hu and his men didnt hesitate and knelt down on the spot. They all knew this person; they had just been defeated by him not long ago! The younger ones in security uniforms were not sure what was happening, but since their boss was kneeling, they too trembled and knelt down. "W-What is going on..." Tang Yao shivered, clutched Ye Huans sleeve, and whispered. "Ill handle this matter," Ye Huan whispered back. With that, he looked at Brother Hu with a calm face, "Were you looking for me?" "I-I found the wrong person..." Brother Hu spoke in a shaky voice, looking as if he was about to cry. He had just come to find the security captain of Tianyun International, who knew this captain would be the boss of Silver Bay, Ye Huan! Last time it was Xie Feng, this time its Bai Yu! Each one gives me such a big trouble, its hard to handle! "Found the wrong person? I dont think so," Ye Huan smirked, "The security captain of Tianyun International youre looking for is indeed me, Ye Huan." "We...we got the wrong situation!" Brother Hu gritted his teeth, knocking his head on the ground three times, "Please forgive us, Boss Ye, its our fault!" Seeing him like this, the male employees and the "rebellion" security guards were utterly shocked. Brother Hu, renowned in the underworld, with dozens of men at his command, actually knelt and kowtowed to this security captain? Calling him Boss Ye? What on earth is going on! They gasped, trembling all over, having no clue what was happening. "Ill settle your account later," Ye Huan said lightly, then looked at the male employees, "You are fired, hand over your badge." "I...you..." The male employees were panicked, but still forced their courage, "What...what authority do you have to fire us?" "I have the authority!" Tang Yaos face was full of disgust, pointing to the company gate, "You are all fired, get out!" Ye Huans lips curled up, "Did you hear, hand in your badge and leave!" "Wh-why, Secretary Tang, what did we do wrong? Brother Hu is our valued guest, this stinking security guard angered Brother Hu, we were just...just helping the company get rid of this plague..." "Shut your mouth! I was the blind one who didnt recognize Boss Ye, dont babble uselessly!" Brother Hu got up angrily, with a fierce look, and slapped them one by one, making their mouths bleed. They yelled in pain, continuously moaning. "Tear off their badges and throw them out!" Brother Hu shouted loudly. The younger ones received the order and gave the male employees kicks and punches, then tore off their badges. After everything was done, the younger ones stood in a line, each holding a badge, grinning obsequiously, "Boss Ye, they are all here." "Throw them on the ground, its time to take out the trash," Ye Huan said casually. The younger ones nodded, fierce light flashing in their eyes, they slapped the "cowards" a few more times before picking them up and tossing them down the stairs. The male employees rolled down the steps, crying out, their faces ashen. They regretted it bitterly! What stinking security guard? This person is clearly a big shot even more powerful than Brother Hu! But to please Brother Hu and Secretary Tang, they had completely offended this big shot! Secretary Tang obviously has a close relationship with him, and didnt even react when given a nickname! And not to mention Brother Hu, he was trying to please Ye Huan! Didnt please him, and lost their jobs! Where will they find a company with such good benefits as Tianyun International in the future! Where can they find it! Regret it! A group of well-dressed people, with bruised noses and swollen faces, lying at the bottom of Tianyun Internationals steps crying out, creating a remarkable scene... "Alright, now its our turn to settle things." Ye Huan chewed on a toothpick and asked Brother Hu, "Who sent you?" "I...I..." Brother Hus eyes darted around twice, gritted his teeth but remained silent. Cant offend Boss Ye in front, cant offend Young Master Bai Yu behind... Sear?h the N?velFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. At this moment... A Porsche Z896 worth over seven million stopped below the steps. Bai Yu adjusted his white suit and slowly walked up the steps. He hadnt even entered the lobby yet, but directly shouted angrily. "Who dares to cause trouble at Tianyun International?!" Chapter 54: Why Is It Different from the Plan? Chapter 54: Chapter 54: Why Is It Different from the Plan?"Wheres the security? Where did the security go?" "Ye Huan, youre the head of security, and you got beaten up like this?" Bai Yu hadnt even stepped into the company lobby, and he was already proudly boasting. But the next second, he shivered and instinctively took a few steps back. This... whats going on, why is everything so different from the plan? Not only was Ye Huan not beaten beyond recognition, but Brother Hu and his group were kneeling on the ground? Whats happening! "Oh, isnt this Bai Shao, the son I just acknowledged?" Ye Huan said seriously, "But Bai Shao, I have to remind you, you cant slander me like that!" "Show some respect, and I..." Bai Yu replied with a grim face, "What did I slander you about?" "First, you just asked where the security was. If you arent blind, you should have seen me here, right?" Ye Huans mouth curved upward, "Second, you said I got beaten badly, which is absolute nonsense. Which eye did you see me like that? To protect the companys safety, I straightened out these thugs completely." "I... I got it wrong..." Bai Yus face turned dark, then he furiously said, "These... these thugs, whats their deal? How dare they cause trouble at Tianyun?" Ye Huan looked pained and distraught, "Yeah, these thugs are just too vile. I dont know what gutter rat instructed them to rush into the lobby of Tianyun International and start smashing things, its absolutely detestable!" For a moment, both Brother Hu and Bai Yus eyes darted around uncontrollably, their faces as embarrassed as they could be. Bai Yus eyes seemed to burn with fury, and he grit his teeth. But he restrained his anger because losing his temper would mean admitting to being behind it all in front of everyone, wouldnt it? "Bai Shao, since youre here, how about this?" "Even though our CEO called you an annoying fly in the toilet, I know youre not that bad. You just like to suck up to higher-ups!" "So to satisfy your hobby, I allow you to participate in interrogating these thugs and contribute to Tianyun International, what do you think?" Ye Huan said cheerfully. "Ye Huan, I want to kill..." Bai Yu pointed at Ye Huan, his finger trembling with rage. But he took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. After all, it wasnt the right time to act out. It could spell disaster if his plan was exposed. "Is it Cat Brother?" Ye Huan asked earnestly, "We Huaixia have a saying: where theres reason, you can go anywhere under the sky; where theres none, you cant take a step forward. Reason is absolutely the first priority, dont you think?" Brother Hu seemed like he might cry, nodding his head. "Great!" Ye Huan clapped his hands and continued, "Now that youve smashed up our company lobby, shouldnt you make some compensation accordingly?" "Yes... yes." Brother Hu nodded again. "Ah, considering its your first offense and you were instigated by some unknown wild dog, I can let you off this time, but only if we agree on the specifics of the compensation, okay?" Brother Hu nodded awkwardly. But those six words unknown wild dog drove Bai Yu to the edge of fury. Veins popped on his forearms, and his face twisted with rage. "Huh?" Ye Huan turned his head toward Bai Yu, feigning suspicion, "Bai Shao, whats with that expression? Could it be that you are the unknown wild dog who instigated the thugs to smash things?" Tang Yao furrowed her eyebrows and her face turned unfriendly. She also noticed Bai Yus strange behavior. From the moment he entered the company, his words and demeanor were extremely unusual. Moreover, considering the CEOs assessment of him, its entirely possible that he instigated Brother Hu and his gang to come and smash things up! "I... Im just very angry and find these thugs actions disgraceful!" Bai Yu squeezed these words out from behind clenched teeth, his face deeply sullen. After all, regardless, if he admits to it, not only will his plan fail, but Liu Tianyun will hate him to death, leading to irreparable consequences. "Bai Shao, sorry for the trouble! Look at me, actually suspecting you. Youre the young master of the Bai Family, how could you possibly associate with unknown wild dogs? Sorry, sorry, haha!" Ye Huan clapped Bai Yu on the back, laughing heartily. Bai Yu clenched his fists tightly, yet he still managed to force a laugh, although it was painfully forced and awkward. "Alright, enough chit-chat, lets get down to discussing the compensation matters." Ye Huan said with a smile, "Secretary Tang, could you please fetch a cost estimate sheet for our company lobby?" With that, he whispered something to Tang Yao that only the two of them could hear. Tang Yaos face lit up with intrigue, and after nodding, she stepped towards the elevator. ... "What, a chair costs ten thousand?" Brother Hu stared at the price list in disbelief, "And... that sofa costs two hundred thousand?" Looking at the price sheet for the company lobby, Brother Hu was utterly in despair. "Nonsense, our companys sofas are imported, let alone the chairs, they cost 19,999 to buy, is it unreasonable to charge you half price?" Ye Huan said with an unhappy expression. "Then... then what about this!" Brother Hus finger pointed to the paper, "These glass panels, why do they cost twenty thousand each?" "What, do you think Im overcharging you?" Ye Huan said coldly. "No... not dare..." Brother Hu wiped the sweat from his forehead awkwardly, "Then... then what about this 50,000 cleaning fee?" "You vandalized the company, increasing the workload for our janitors, isnt it fair to charge you for that?" Ye Huan sneered, "You need to compensate our company with a total of 3.24 million, Ill give you a discount, make it 3.25 million, pay up and you can leave." "3.25 million? We... we dont have that much money." "Dont have that much money? Call the wild dog who instigated you, he should have plenty, right?" Ye Huan said meaningfully. "This... this..." Brother Hus eyes unwittingly glanced towards Bai Yu. 3.25 million was practically everything he had, yet he couldnt come up with it! Bai Yu gritted his teeth, took two steps forward. Suddenly, he "slipped" and fell to the ground. At this moment, he quickly took out a bank card and slipped it into Brother Hus hand. Brother Hus expression lit up, he awkwardly smiled and handed over the bank card, "Ye... Ye Lao Da, the card... the card has..." Bai Yu?" "Yes, yes!" Brother Hu nodded quickly without hesitation. ... Outside Tianyun International, inside a van. "Ah Hu, you guys..." knocked four times on Brother Hus back. "The card has four million." Brother Hu said seriously, "Todays issue was a misunderstanding; the extra 750,000 is an apology to Ye Lao Da, weve thoroughly realized our mistake." "Oh? Such a good deal?" Ye Huan extended his hand with a grin, but soon his face darkened. Tang Yao quickly snatched the bank card and said coldly, "Our company accepts your compensation but still reserves the right to pursue legal action. If theres a next time, we wont be lenient!" "Absolutely." Ye Huans mouth curled upwards, a gleam in his eye, "If you dare to follow the orders of a certain stray dog lying on the street to cause me trouble again, I wont hesitate to keep Celestial Sea free of another sick cat, got it?" What the hell, couldnt even deal with a security guard?" Bai Yu was furious, yelling harshly. He was truly upset, originally planning for Brother Hu to wreak havoc at Tianyun International, then have Ye Huan beaten to shambles. Then he would come in to resolve the situation, knocking Brother Hus group into a retreat, charming Liu Tianyun in the process. But the plan was stopped dead in its tracks at the second step? Ridiculous! sea??h th N?vel(F)ire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Brother Hus face was awkward, "Bai Shao, you cant blame me, we really cant mess with Ye Lao Da!" "Hes just a lousy security guard, what are you afraid of him for?" "Hes not just a security guard!" Brother Hu said solemnly, "Bai Shao, you might not know, hes the boss Ye of Silver Bay, with hundreds of men at his disposal!" "Hundreds of men?" Bai Yu furrowed his brow, "You must be mistaken, just that lousy security guard?" "No mistake!" Brother Hu was terrified, "You know Xie Family, right? Xie Feng crossed Ye Lao Da last time, and he just got wiped out!" As the young master of the Bai Family, Bai Yu naturally knew about the major event in Celestial Sea. The Xie Familys decades of accumulated wealth was wiped out overnight, and it was Liu Aimin himself who ordered the downfall of the Xie Family. The fall of the Xie Family was connected to Ye Huan, which made sense, given Ye Huan was Liu Aimins chosen husband for Liu Tianyun. But having hundreds of men under Ye Huans command, that was news indeed. Seems like hed better not act recklessly... Bai Yu furrowed his brow slightly, "Lets take this slowly, Ill start by thoroughly investigating Ye Huans background." Chapter 55: Why is there a scrap collector in your shop? Chapter 55: Chapter 55: Why is there a scrap collector in your shop?In the underground parking lot of Tianyun International, inside a Rolls-Royce Phantom. "Honey, youve already taken 3.25 million, cant you give me the remaining 750,000?" Ye Huan started the car, looking frustrated. "750,000 to you? Ye Huan, you need to understand something." Liu Tianyun said calmly, "In the end, those people were provoked by you. If it werent for you, would they have come to smash up our company?" Ye Huans face darkened: "Repairing the company lobby would cost no more than a million, isnt earning 2.25 million enough for you?" "Not enough." "..." Ye Huan gritted his teeth. No wonder shes such an evil capitalist, she wont even let go a bit of this profit! At this time, Liu Tianyun said, "Ill give you 500,000." "Huh?" Ye Huan was momentarily dumbfounded, then his face lit up with joy, "Honey, youre so good, I knew you wouldnt be that heartless!" Liu Tianyun remained expressionless and said coldly, "Ye Huan, I need to warn you. Up till now, youve used forbidden words to refer to me a total of 8 times, resulting in a fine of 400 yuan, which will be deducted from your next months salary." Ye Huans mouth twitched, but he didnt care. yuan is just peanuts compared to 500,000! "Besides..." Liu Tianyun took out a bank card from her bag and said matter-of-factly, "This 500,000 isnt given to you for free; its a loan, which will be deducted from the divorce settlement." Ye Huan stumbled, and the car almost crashed into a tree on the side of the street. "Then I dont want this money," Ye Huan said through clenched teeth. "You have to, otherwise how will you prepare a decent gift?" "Tomorrow is my grandfathers seventieth birthday celebration, aside from the main Liu family members, many social celebrities and business elites will come to celebrate." "If you bring a subpar gift, youll make others laugh their heads off. I believe you dont want to lose face, right?" Before Liu Tianyun could continue, Ye Huan smiled and said, "Dont worry about it, Ive already prepared a grand gift that will definitely eclipse everyone else in no time." Liu Tianyun frowned slightly, "Eclipse everyone? What did you prepare?" "A Yuan dynasty celadon imperial cup." Ye Huan steered the car with his right hand while taking out the cup from his pocket with his left, "The imperial cup used by Kublai Khan, worth a billion." Liu Tianyun closely examined the cup, then her expression turned grim, "This cup isnt worth more than a thousand yuan, right?" "A thousand yuan?" Ye Huan looked smug, "Honey, you probably dont know, I only spent a hundred yuan on this. The old man at the stall took a huge loss of a few billion, nearly jumped into the river in despair, haha!" Liu Tianyun swayed a bit, almost fainting on the spot from anger. An imperial porcelain cup from Kublai Khan? Ye Huan mustve been scammed by those crafty antique dealers! Only a hundred yuan? That dealer probably profited immensely with tears in his eyes! Good thing hes so foolish, getting scammed and still feeling proud. The dealer is likely laughing in his bed right now! "Take the 500,000 and buy something decent. I dont want this cup appearing at the birthday banquet tomorrow." Ye Huan was surprised. Didnt expect Liu Tianyun to be quite frugal too. Giving away something worth ten billion just like that is indeed too extravagant. But... Who cares, giving this cup tomorrow will definitely boost his face big time! Liu Tianyun glanced at Ye Huan through the rearview mirror, frowned, and then said, "Your clothes arent good enough, lets go to the mall, Ill take you to buy a proper suit." "I think I look handsome enough, no need..." Sensing the disapproving glare from the back seat, brother Huan shut his mouth consciously, then drove towards the nearest super mall. ... Jinding International, the biggest super mall in Celestial Sea City, houses branches of major luxury fashion, cosmetics, and other brands from around the world. All sorts of supporting facilities are available. "You wander around yourself first, Im going to buy a dress." Liu Tianyun said flatly, then stepped away. Ye Huan sighed helplessly, gritting his teeth. As the saying goes, clothes make the man. But that only applies to ordinary people. Clothes or not, it doesnt change brother Huans extraordinary aura one bit! Although saying so, brother Huan still very consciously walked into the Givenchy menswear brand store. "Hello sir, do you need anyth..." The female salesperson was sitting on a chair, touching up her eyeshadow with a makeup box. Seeing someone enter, she began to greet, but upon seeing Ye Huans appearance, her expression soured, "Anything you need?" "Oh, Im looking at suits, any high-quality suits that can complement my extraordinary aura?" "Extraordinary aura?" The female salesperson was taken aback before bursting into laughter, "We really dont have any, but I think your aura suits... suits a garbage heap, haha." "Wow, sis, youre pretty humorous." "Not as humorous as you." "Well, after the jokes, how about you show me some suits?" Ye Huan looked around, scanning the suits hanging on the walls. "Whos joking with you, cant you get a clue?" The female salesperson showed disgust. Wearing patched-up jeans, a white T-shirt so washed its turning yellow, and a pair of liberation shoes. This guys outfit isnt much better than a vagrant on the street. Thinking this, she waved her hand dismissively like shooing a fly, "Hurry up and scram, this isnt a place for you to seek fun, we have other guests to attend to." "Im here to buy a suit, not for fun, plus..." Ye Huan spread his hands helplessly, "Even if I were here for fun, it wouldnt be here. Just look at your style, I wouldnt even bother." The female salesperson was taken aback, then swore fiercely, "You poor wretch, how dare you insult me? Did you sneak into the mall by foul means and actually think youre a wealthy person?" "I didnt say Im rich either." Ye Huan shrugged, "I just want to buy a suit. If you want to help, great, if not, Ill look around myself." Sarch* The Novl?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Out!" The female salesperson crossed her arms and shouted, "You think this is like those clothing stores on the street? This is Givenchy. Givenchy, do you poor wretch know what it is? An internationally renowned luxury suit brand! The suits here start at least 50,000, some even run into the millions. And you think youre buying suits here?" "Yeah, I plan to buy here since the Armani next door isnt open yet." "You..." The female salespersons face turned ugly. The next moment, she suddenly smiled, jogging towards the store entrance, putting on a fawning smile. "Sir, may I ask what service you require?" "Oh, Im here to purchase a suit." The man rolled up his sleeves, revealing a Rolex gold watch, "Time is short, please show me your suits." "Sure, this way, sir." The female salesperson bowed humbly, even intentionally adopting a seductive pose to showcase her figure. The man clearly understood the female salespersons intentions, raising the corner of his mouth into a mischievous grin, pulling out some bills from his wallet and slipping them into her top. "Thanks, sir~" The female salesperson smiled coquettishly, then led the man inside the store. The man wrapped an arm around the female salespersons waist, occasionally giving a squeeze, making her giggle incessantly. "Sir, over here, let me show you our most handsome suit, and then assist you with trying it on." The female salesperson blinked "shyly." "Excellent, excellent indeed!" The man chuckled mischievously, pulling out more cash and slipping it in... Soon, his expression changed dramatically, and he said in a cold voice. "Why is there a ragpicker in your store? What a nuisance!" Chapter 56: It’s You, the Scumbag, That I’m Hitting! Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Its You, the Scumbag, That Im Hitting!The female sales assistant glared with disdain and angrily shouted, "Get out of here, this is no place for lowly people like you!" After cursing, she clung to the mans arm and giggled coquettishly, "Young master, dont bother with him. How about this, you go into the fitting room first, and Ill come to soothe your anger in a bit!" "Hmm, alright." The man nodded with an indifferent expression, but his eyes revealed a lecherous gleam as he stepped into the fitting room nearby. As soon as the fitting room door closed, the female sales assistants face turned sullen, "Didnt you hear me tell you to get out?" "Lady, Im really here to buy a suit. Ill just look around myself, you dont need to mind me." "Pah!" The female sales assistant glared angrily, "Dont think I dont know, youre here to scavenge for a chance to steal a suit. I warn you, our store has a 360-degree surveillance system. If you dare steal, youll be done for!" Ye Huan frowned slightly, "Ill say it again, Im here to buy..." Before he could finish, the female sales assistant threatened, "If youre still here when I come out, watch out, I wont be polite!" Sar?h the Novl?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. With that, she entered the fitting room... ... Three minutes later, the man walked out of the fitting room with the female sales assistant in his arms, both looking disheveled. It was obvious what filthy things they had been doing. "This suit is not bad." This sudden voice made both of their faces turn ugly. They looked closely and found that the "scavenger" was actually trying on a suit in front of the full-length mirror? The female sales assistant rushed over, snatched the suit from Ye Huans hands, and shouted angrily, "What are you doing!" "Trying on a suit, what else?" "Youre trying on a suit? Do you think you deserve to?" The female sales assistant glared angrily, "Look at yourself in the mirror, do you think you can afford anything here? Did you see the numbers on the tag!" Ye Huan spread his hands and said, "I saw it, 150,000." "You still dare to try it on after seeing that?" The female sales assistant pointed at Ye Huan, trembling with rage, her face contorted like a demon. "Why wouldnt I dare?" Ye Huan sneered coldly, "Lady, even if you look down on people like a dog, you should have a limit. I can only tell you, Im here to buy a suit." "I would believe youre here to fish in troubled waters. A scavenger having the nerve to say hes buying a suit? Do you think you deserve it!" The female sales assistant cursed, then pointed at the man, "This young master is the real customer here to buy a suit, just look at him, then look at yourself!" The man nodded smugly and said, "Thats right, Im planning to buy a suit priced around 100,000." After speaking, he looked mocking, "Kid, I earn half a million annually and only dare to occasionally shop at this level of store. Can someone from the lower rungs of society like you afford to buy here?" Ye Huans eyes gradually narrowed, a toothpick hanging from his mouth. If this were overseas, the second time someone was aggressive towards Brother Huan, he would definitely eliminate them. But here, its different. This is Huaxia, a country with very strict laws, leaving no room for him to act recklessly. So he endured it. But these two, theyve gone too far... "Security, come up here, why didnt you stop the scavenger that broke into the mall?" "Coming up now? Alright, remember to bring the tools, this scavenger is forgetful and deserves a good lesson." The female sales assistant hung up the phone and laughed coldly, "Stinking scavenger, I gave you a chance to leave earlier, now you wont have the chance even if you want to!" "Oh, really?" Ye Huan asked with a sly smile. "Are you deaf too, you scavenger?" Just as the female sales assistant spoke, she felt a strong murderous aura enveloping her, and she covered her mouth, unable to speak, feeling a chill rise from her feet. A cold glint flashed in Ye Huans eyes. At this time, the sound of dense footsteps came from outside the store, and ten security guards rushed in with batons. "Sc...scavenger, youre finished!" the female sales assistant gritted her teeth and cursed. Meanwhile, a cold female voice came from outside the store, "Whats happening?" The security guards turned their heads and exclaimed, "M...Miss Liu, hello!" "What are you all doing?" Liu Tianyun walked in holding shopping bags, asking coldly. "Re...reporting!" The female sales assistants face lit up with joy and interjected, "Miss Liu, a scavenger broke into our store and disrupted the shopping environment, so I called the security over." She was extremely excited. Liu Tianyun, the famous daughter of the Liu Family from Celestial Sea, was actually appearing in front of her? She must curry favor with her, and shell be on the path to the peak of life in no time! "You mean him?" Liu Tianyun pointed at Ye Huan, saying calmly. "Yes, Miss Liu, stay away from him, dont let that scavenger dirty your eyes!" The female sales assistant fawned, then shouted angrily at the security guards, "What are you waiting for, get this scavenger out of here? Hes even affecting Miss Lius fresh air..." "Slap!" Before she could finish, the sound of a slap echoed throughout the store. Liu Tianyun withdrew her hand and wiped it with a napkin as if it was dirty. This slap made the security guards shiver, not daring to move recklessly. The female sales assistant held her cheek, puzzled, "Miss...Miss Liu, why did you hit me?" Liu Tianyuns face was cold, looking down at her condescendingly, "I hit you." With that, she looked at Ye Huan, "Did you buy the suit?" "Not yet." Ye Huan shrugged helplessly, "She stopped me and wouldnt let me buy it." Liu Tianyun took out a bank card and threw it at the female sales assistants face, "All the suits in the store, charge it." The female sales assistant stammered, trembling all over. By now, how could she not realize the relationship between this "scavenger" and Liu Tianyun? This wasnt a scavenger; he was clearly Miss Lius man! Why did she have to be so short-sighted? Had she treated him well, her future would have been bright as a phoenix! The female sales assistants lips trembled, her intestines filled with regret. He couldnt afford a suit? What a joke! Now, hes bought all the suits in the store, while the wealthy young master she was serving could at most buy one for 100,000. Compared to the "scavenger" in her eyes, this wealthy young master was nothing more than a tiny ant! "Charge it!" Liu Tianyun bent over and gave another slap to the female sales assistants face. The female sales assistant quivered, quickly picked up the bank card and scrambled to the POS machine to start calculating the amount. "Stop." Liu Tianyun said calmly. The man in a business suit, forehead beaded with sweat, had one foot out the stores door but paused. Liu Tianyun gave him a cold glance-over for a few seconds and said plainly, "I remember you, youre the son of the chairman of East Capital Corporation, right?" "Y-Yes..." The man smiled awkwardly, "President Liu, you have a really good memory; I-I was lucky to accompany my dad to one of y-your dinners last time." Liu Tianyun took out her phone. "Send a notice, cancel all business dealings with East Capital, and put them on the blacklist." Chapter 57: Husband-Protecting Maniac? Chapter 57: Chapter 57: Husband-Protecting Maniac?"Plop." The mans legs gave way uncontrollably, and he collapsed onto the ground. Sar?h the n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. His throat moved with difficulty, and he was trembling all over. East Capital Co., Ltd, to put it simply, is a distributor under Tianyun International, getting products from Tianyun International for channel sales. If Tianyun and East Capital cancel their cooperation, East Capital will go bankrupt immediately! He couldnt figure it out, couldnt understand why Liu Tianyun was so resolute! "President Liu... Liu, can... can you tell me wh... why?" the man asked with a trembling voice. "You mean my husband is someone you can just mess with?" Liu Tianyun sneered, though she didnt realize how much shock this would cause others. Husband? This... this "rubbish collector" of a beggar is Liu Tianyuns husband? How is this possible!!!! The entire room was silent. Everyone was shocked, and without exception, their eyes were full of disbelief, their eyeballs trembling non-stop. "This... this guy is President Lius husband?" "I... I swear, President Liu got married? This... this is big news!" "Luckily President Liu came in time, otherwise wed be done for!" "Yeah, whats this sales assistant thinking with her brain? How dare she be disrespectful to Miss Lius husband? Miss Lius husband might very well be the future boss of our store!" The security guards were both relieved and furious. This female sales assistant trying to get them to drive out Miss Lius husband? Its like pushing them into a fire pit! The female sales assistant and the man were completely dumbfounded, their faces full of endless regret. Liu Tianyuns cold gaze pierced through the man, making him feel like he was in an ice cave. "Tell your father that Tianyun International is already prepared to clean up the remains of East Capital." The man shivered violently, putting a finger in his mouth, his lips trembling uncontrollably, clearly scared dumb. Clean up the remains of East Capital? His fathers empire, built over decades, was going to be destroyed by his own hands! "Miss Liu... Miss Liu, the card... card is ready," the female sales assistant said, lowering her head and handing over the bank card with both hands. Liu Tianyun took the bank card and looked at the security guards: "Help us pack the clothes and bring them to the car. Each of you will get an extra 300 yuan bonus this month." "Yes!" The security guards were overjoyed and began folding the suits neatly into bags. "Hold on!" Ye Huan stopped them. "Theres something more important here that needs dealing with, isnt there?" "What is it? Master, just tell us, well make sure to handle it properly!" the security captain guaranteed with a firm voice, patting his chest. "Not bad, not bad, you really have potential, Im very optimistic about you," Ye Huan said, patting the security captains shoulder, then pointing at the female sales assistant, "Theres still some garbage here, shouldnt it be cleaned up?" "As the masters appointed representative, I declare shes fired!" Ye Huan murmured as he played with the toothpick in his mouth, smiling, "For those who join Golden Apex International with ulterior motives, how should we deal with them?" "Seize her!" Feeling confident? The security captains face first lit up with joy, then he roared with anger, leading the security team to drag out the female sales assistant. After a bout of beating, they pushed her to the front door and kicked her out. "Bang!" The female sales assistant cried out in pain, rolling down from the 99th step, bruised and swollen. Originally, based on the commission of a salesperson at Golden Apex International, she would have earned about 300,000 from that 6-million worth of suits! Because of this, she had been secretly thrilled just moments ago. But now, its all gone, all gone! The massive gap left her spitting out a mouthful of blood, and she passed out. ... "Honey, you were so charming just now, I almost fell in love with you," Ye Huan said seriously as he started the car. But these words only earned a disapproving look from Liu Tianyun. Ye Huan didnt mind and instead whistled a lighthearted tune. Liu Tianyuns earlier performance could be described with a saying women often useit was full of boyfriend-like strength! The overbearing CEO vibe was simply overwhelming! The repeated slaps could only be described as immensely satisfying! But the next moment, Liu Tianyuns words brought Ye Huan from the clouds down to earth, with lines of frustration appearing all over his face. "Ye Huan, I need to remind you, to date youve used twelve prohibited terms to address me, totaling a fine of 600 yuan." "This time, buying clothing for you cost a total of 6 million. Adding the previous 500,000 borrowed for gift purchases..." "Plus, the security guards bonuses are increased by 300 yuan this month, totaling 3,000 yuan for the ten on-site." "You currently owe me 6,503,600 yuan." Liu Tianyun said calmly as she recorded every expense in a notebook. "What the!" Ye Huan swore, "I wasnt the one who wanted the clothes, you made the decision without consulting me, I protest!" "Protest denied," Liu Tianyun replied coolly, "After the annulment of the marriage agreement, if youre unable to repay, it will be deducted from the amount we agreed upon." "You... youre ruthless!" Ye Huans face turned as dark as Bao Qingtians, gritting his teeth. This woman changes faces like the seventy-two transformations of Sun Wukong! One moment shes a wife-protecting demon queen, an overbearing CEO, the next shes turned into an ice mountain... No, shes a stone in an outhouse, hard and smelly! Deduct money? Just wait till I charm you with my charisma, lets see if you can still bring yourself to deduct! Liu Tianyuns eyes remained calm, her expression unchanging, but inside, she was not calm at all. Back at the villa, she rushed into the room, pulling out a slightly yellowed old photo hidden under the pillow. She stared intently at the boy with the toothpick in the photo, trying hard to overlap him with Ye Huans image at the mall, also with a toothpick in his mouth. In fact, there were other reasons why Liu Tianyun slapped the female sales assistant and the man. One was to fulfill the "wifes" responsibility of maintaining her husbands dignity in public, and the second was the unconscious connection in her heart between Ye Huan and the "big brother"the thought of "big brother" being bullied ignited her fury. When she first saw Ye Huan with the toothpick in the mall, her heart was pounding like a fawn, jumping uncontrollably. But after trying for a long time, Liu Tianyun was still unable to merge the images of the two together. One was a superhero sheltering in front of her, the other was a lying wolf full of wit, they simply didnt match at all! "An illusion?" Liu Tianyun sighed, her gaze growing determined: "It must be an illusion!" At most, Ye Huans toothpick-holding, hands-in-pockets demeanor is somewhat like the "big brother", but his inner self cannot compare with the "majestic big brother" at all! If Ye Huan knew his image in Liu Tianyuns mind was so "tall", he would definitely want to knock his head on tofu and die! A master like me is obviously talented and handsome, how come in your view Im seen as sleazy and unbearable? Chapter 58: Birthday Banquet Chapter 58: Chapter 58: Birthday BanquetThe next day, as night fell, a bright moon hung in the sky. The Liu Family residence was adorned with lights and decorations, and the parking lot of the estate was filled with luxury cars. Many socialites unrelated to the Liu Family had also come to the estate. Because tonight was the grand celebration of the Patriarch Liu Aimins seventieth birthday banquet! The estate was brightly lit, with the laughter of children and the sound of adults chatting and clinking glasses interwoven, creating a harmonious atmosphere. The mansion was huge, as large as four football fields, and the fireflies danced amidst the grass under the street lamps, creating a dreamy scene. "Vroom." The Rolls-Royce engine stopped running and parked steadily in the Liu Family estates parking lot. "Tianyun, why are you so late?" Before the car door was even opened, an uninvited guest arrived. "Son of a turtle, when are you going to change your habit of trying to warm cold shoulders with a fervent face?" Ye Huan opened the car door and stepped out, looking serious, "Didnt I teach you that having thick skin is good, but too thick makes you annoying?" "Ye Huan, Im going to chop you up into pieces..." Bai Yu cursed vehemently, but the moment he saw Liu Tianyun getting out of the car, his eyes lit up, and he swallowed back his curses. Liu Tianyun remained expressionless, but this only enhanced her extraordinary aura. Her features seemed to be intricately carved by God himself. Her silky black hair cascaded over her shoulders, her skin was as smooth and fair as a newborn babys, even the slightest touch could break it. A sky-blue form-fitting dress perfectly outlined her exquisitely crafted hourglass figure, every curve appeared absolutely flawless. Her thighs, wrapped in flesh-colored crystal stockings, added tightness and a touch of allure, while the sky-blue princess heels on her feet made her look incredibly tall. She seemed like a cloudy moon and a flow of snow in the wind. Sear?h the N?velFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Only the word celestial could describe her aura. Bai Yu was completely stunned, his mouth opened wide enough to fit a stone, yet a perverse curve unconsciously formed at the corner of his mouth, saliva dripped without him noticinga truly repulsive appearance. "Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?" Ye Huan had his hands in his pockets and scolded, "You unfilial child, staring at your mother for so long? Come on, quickly call her Mom!" "Mom..." Almost slipping out, Bai Yu hurriedly covered his mouth, his face turned furious "What mom? What are you talking about?" "You forgot you acknowledged me as your father?" "Dont talk nonsense!" Bai Yu raged. "Since you forgot, let me help you remember..." Ye Huan smirked and pulled out his phone, lightly tapping the screen. "Dad." Bai Yus voice acknowledging his father sounded from the phone. Bai Yus face was filled with rage: "You actually recorded this?" "How could receiving such a big gift like a son come without some keepsake?" Ye Huan grinned, "The evidence is there, arent you going to call her now?" "I..." Bai Yus face turned red with anger. However, he managed to suppress his fury. Bai Yu took out a bouquet of roses from his suit pocket, kneeling on one knee, his eyes filled with emotion as he gazed at Liu Tianyun: "Tianyun, I love..." Before he could finish, Liu Tianyun gently "reminded" him: "Before speaking, please mind our hierarchy." Bai Yu was dumbfounded and asked, "What hierarchy?" "You are my husbands son, which makes you my son too." Liu Tianyun said expressionlessly, "I understand you, as a son, wanting to express respect to your mother is normal, but theres no need for flowers, Im not dead yet." With that, she walked towards the garden. "Did you hear that, from now on, speak to me and your mom with respect to hierarchy." Ye Huan smirked and patted Bai Yus shoulder, then walked after her. Bai Yus smile froze, holding the bouquet in mid-air. His expression increasingly became hideous, as his grip tightened fiercely. The bouquet in his hand turned into a soggy mess scattered on the ground. "Ye Huan, just you wait!!" ... "Tianyuns here, havent seen for so many years, shes grown more beautiful." "Yeah, the beauty of our familys Tianyun rivals the World Celestial Queen!" "That comment is biased, the World Celestial Queen is just a pretty face, our Liu Familys Tianyun is a talented woman, look at how well Tianyun International is doing now." "I heard the latest beauty product from Tianyun International sold out within half an hour of launch, it became a hit and claimed 20% of the domestic cosmetic market, the future looks promising!" In the garden, relatives and friends of the Liu Family laughed and greeted Liu Tianyun, their eyes showing unrestrained respect. Theres no familial affection in prestigious families, those who excel are the ones the family follows closely. Liu Tianyun smiled, nodding her head in return, then approached a woman in the corner holding a goblet: "Mom." The woman was dressed in a cheongsam with her hair tied into a bun, a gold hairpin inserted, she was in her forties but had a stunning figure that could rival any top model, her charm remained. She swirled the goblet, not giving Liu Tianyun any expression, nor did she speak. The middle-aged man next to her noticed the tense atmosphere and smiled: "Dandan, Tianyun is greeting you." "I know." Liu Dandan replied coolly, "Did you see Xiao Yu?" "I did." "Hows it? Did you warm up your relationship a bit?" "Mom, may I ask if youve made a mistake?" Liu Tianyuns face turned slightly cold, "I have a husband now, asking me to build a relationship with another man, whats the meaning of this?" "What does it matter? Are you telling me you care about what your security guard husband thinks? Does he deserve that?" "Im just being direct." Liu Dandan glanced at Ye Huan, saying coolly, "Your name is Ye Huan, right? Let me ask you, do you think youre worthy of Tianyun? Or do you think youre better than Bai Yu?" Ye Huan smiled, replying, "Whether Im worthy or not is for Tianyun to judge, not for others to point fingers. As for being better... theres no need to say, what does Bai Yu have to compare with me?" "Ridiculous!" Liu Dandan said coldly, "Lets set aside the previous question, I just want to know what gives you the confidence to say youre better than Bai Yu?" "Bai Yus just a straw bag." Ye Huan grinned, "I think Im better in every way!" "No skills but fantastic at bragging!" Liu Dandan sneered angering, "Ill ask you one question, which table are you planning to sit at?" Which table? Ye Huan frowned slightly, asking, "Is there custom for this too?" "Didnt you tell him?" Liu Dandan asked coolly. Liu Tianyun shook her head, saying, "I think it doesnt matter which table he sits at, I gave him five hundred thousand as a gift preparation." "Five hundred thousand?" Liu Dandan looked surprised, "Are you mistaken? You only gave him five hundred thousand?" Liu Tianyun nodded. "Liu Tianyun, are you crazy!" Liu Dandan burst into rage, smashing the goblet on the ground: "This time, besides the Liu Family, theres a bunch of socialites and business elites coming to celebrate your grandfathers birthday, you only prepared five hundred thousand? Are you planning to let us sit at the lowest-tier table?" "Mom, we dont need to be that vain, right?" Liu Tianyuns face remained unchanged. "Is this about vanity? Dont you know the lowest-tier table is going to be mocked by everyone? Our whole familys dignity will be at stake!" Getting angrier, Liu Dandan directly cursed Ye Huan, "Useless thing, you cant even prepare the gift money without asking your wife, pathetic!" "Youre mistaken, the gift I prepared is worth much more than five hundred thousand..." Ye Huan hesitated for a moment, and then said, "The thing I prepared can be worth up to ten billion!" Chapter 59: Which Table for 1 Billion? Chapter 59: Chapter 59: Which Table for 1 Billion?"Ten billion?" Liu Dandan was momentarily stunned, then couldnt help but display a look of disdain in her eyes, coldly laughing, "Liu Tianyun, is this the man youve set your sights on? A man supposedly more outstanding than Xiaoyu? At best, I think hes just a half-baked clown trying to win attention!" Ye Huan smiled and said, "Auntie, dont worry, Im not that kind of person. Not only will sitting with me not embarrass you, but it will also give you a lot of face!" "Ridiculous! Do you think a gift worth half a million is very valuable? What a frog at the bottom of the well!" Liu Dandans lips curled into a mocking arc, "Let me tell you, your gift worth half a million is worth nothing to our Liu Family!" Liu Tianyun sighed, "Mom, the amount we give is our business; its the thought that counts." "The thought that counts is an excuse for people without money. Liu Tianyun, can you open your eyes a little wider? Staying with someone like him will only cause you to lose face entirely." Liu Dandan scolded as if hating iron for not becoming steel, and then said, "How about this, Ill introduce you to Xiaoyus table. He will definitely prepare the highest standard of gifts. By then, well be sitting at the best table, and well have a lot of face!" "Go yourself if you want." Liu Tianyun said coldly and then turned her head away. "Fine, stay with him and wait until your face is thrown down the drain!" Liu Dandan cursed loudly, then strode toward Bai Yu. She was burning with anger in her heart. How did she give birth to such an unambitious daughter? With a chance to earn face and sit at the highest standard table, yet she chose to sit at the worst table with this husband? That would make the whole place laugh at them! Truly stupid! Utterly foolish! ... The Liu Family mansion had hosted no less than ten large banquets before, but such events often attracted a mix of various social groups; putting journalists aside, many thieves and robbers had even sneaked in, causing severe negative impacts, even affecting the proper hosting of the banquet. To avoid such risks, the Liu Family decided to arrange tables based on the value of the gifts, making management easier and more orderly. Ahead of the mansion gate was a long rosewood table, where several bespectacled appraisal experts evaluated each gift. People lined up in a long queue behind the table. "Mr. Wang, valued at 660,000, a Tianshan ginseng..." "Ms. Li, valued at 790,000, Snow Lotus Senna..." "Mr. Zhou, valued at 880,000, a Qing Dynasty jade..." After the appraisal was completed, the butler would smile as he handed the guest an invitation, specifying the amount of the gift and the table number. Meanwhile, the maids would slightly bow and then smile as they guided the guests into the main hall of the mansion. These gifts, valued at under a million, did not stir any reaction among the crowd. Instead, many in the queue sneered aloud. The laughter caused the so-called "famous figures" called by name to turn red-faced, walking with their heads down in embarrassment as they entered the main hall. It wasnt until later, when gifts valued at two million, or even over three million, were announced that many people started showing respect. After all, being able to give a gift worth over three million suggested significant financial capability, and three million was insignificant to them. Most importantly, the higher the standard of the table, the closer it was to the front of the banquet, offering a direct view of the heroics of Liu Family Patriarch Liu Aimin, and maybe even a few words exchanged with him! Being able to talk to Liu Aimin, the future is limitless! "Mr. Gao and his wife, gifting a Republic of China jade pendant valued at 500,000." The assessor announced blandly, causing uproarious laughter on the spot. "Bringing out 500,000? Mate, youve got thick skin!" "Hahaha!" Many people mocked openly, making the couple named wish they could find a hole to crawl into, and they finally left the garden in shame, having no face to enter the venue. Liu Dandan was also in the line, looking at their departing backs with a more pronounced mocking smile. This is the outcome of a 500,000 gift! Liu Tianyun, arent you ignoring the advice? Sarch* The Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. In a moment, your face will be thrown into the Pacific Ocean! "Value... value 9,990,000, a piece of Kunlun blood jade!" The appraiser suddenly exclaimed, even slamming the table and standing up. All at once, everyones eyes focused on the blood jade in his hand. The blood jade was smooth and miraculously had the texture of a babys skin, as if a gentle prick with a needle would make it bleed. "No, this blood jade might be over 250 years old, its far more valuable than this, and needs a reevaluation, the value is..." The appraiser swallowed and said, "The value is 14,990,000!" The moment this number was announced, many people in the venue took a sharp breath, the shock evident in their eyes! "Who... who sent this lavish gift? Its amazing!" "Yeah, this value has broken records, right? I remember the most valuable gift in the past was only 9,990,000." "Sending a Kunlun snow jade worth 14,990,000 just like that, what a display of wealth." Many people buzzed with discussions. "Young Master Bai Yu, I express my utmost gratitude for your generous gift." The butler bowed gentlemanly, handing over a gold-stamped invitation with a smile, "This is the highest-standard invitation we have ever given; please keep it safe, and do you have any accompanying guests? We need to arrange seating because the highest-standard dining table is beside Old Master Liu, its the first time being used, chairs have to be taken out from storage." Bai Yu took the invitation and smiled, "Thank you, there are no companions, but my Aunt Liu and Uncle Han are at my table, please arrange three chairs." "Alright, I will arrange it right away." The butler smiled. Feeling the respectful and envious gazes from those in line behind them, Bai Yu and Liu Dandans faces wore an even more triumphant expression, their heads held high with arrogance. "No way? 14,990,000 got you a seat next to Old Master Liu? Then where does my 10 billion sit?" An abrupt voice exploded throughout the venue. Ten billion? Someone is actually giving a gift worth ten billion? At this moment... "Sir, after our appraisal, this is not an antique, and its impossible for it to be worth ten billion." The appraiser adjusted his glasses and said indifferently. "Look closely, this is a Yuan Dynasty royal porcelain cup, used by Yuan Taizu Kublai Khan to drink tea." Ye Huan, biting a toothpick, his hands in his pockets, said with a lazy air. The appraiser frowned slightly, carefully examining it again, and then showed embarrassment: "Sir, this cup seems to be bought from street vendors, doesnt it?" "Is there a problem?" "The problem is, you were fooled!" The appraiser laughed, "This cup, is worth at most 100 bucks." Chapter 60: Instantly Turned into Dregs Chapter 60: Chapter 60: Instantly Turned into Dregs"Your antique appraisal skills arent enough, why dont you find someone else to take a look?" Ye Huan said nonchalantly. The judges face immediately turned sour: "I am Huang Shengren, the vice president of the Celestial Sea Antique Appraisal Association. If my skills are not enough to appraise this item, then no one present can appraise it!" "Get your president to come." Ye Huan said. Beside him, Liu Tianyuns eyes were almost shooting flames; she was practically furious. A 500,000 congratulatory gift might attract ridicule and cost some face, but as the saying goes, virtue must match the position. Ye Huan lacked the financial power to give an expensive gift, and as his wife, even if it was just in name, being mocked together was unavoidable. S~ea??h the N??elFir.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. But lending him 500,000 to buy a gift, not only did he not buy one, he brought a fake as a gift to the event? This face has really been lost to the furthest extent! "Haha, did this buddy have ten years of brain thrombosis to do something like this? Boasting about a ten-billion worth, and ends up giving a fake antique? Haha!" "Did you hear just now? He just admitted he bought that cup from a street vendor for 100 bucks!" "Im dying of laughter, its the first time Ive seen someone like this, truly not afraid of embarrassment." "But his 100-dollar gift truly set a record, haha!" "If I were the Liu Familys steward, Id use a broom to chase him out right now!" The crowds mocking voices kept echoing, many laughed until tears came out. These voices made Liu Tianyuns expression even more angry, as she suppressed her rage and questioned, "I gave you 500,000 to prepare a gift, and this is what you prepared?" Her words caused the crowds laughter and mockery to abruptly stop. What was happening? This... this guy, he came with Miss Liu? What is their relationship! The crowd didnt know, but they understood that the two must have an unusual relationship! Out of respect for Liu Tianyun, no one dared to mock aloud anymore. Yet even so, the mocking expressions in the eyes of the crowd did not diminish at all. A man, attending an event of such caliber, actually borrowing money from a woman to buy a gift? And taking something picked up from a street stall as a treasure? What a joke! "Im asking you." Liu Tianyuns voice grew a bit lower, "Wheres the money I gave you?" "Ugh, its not my fault, its this old guy who doesnt know the treasure." Ye Huan shrugged helplessly, "This is truly a ten-billion worth Yuan Dynasty porcelain imperial cup..." "Isnt it enough?" Before Huan could finish, Liu Dandan came over and mocked, "How many more jokes do you want to make? If this cup is as you say, Ill eat it in one bite!" Bai Yu beside her had an extremely embarrassed expression and tugged at Liu Dandans sleeve. Others might not know, but he knew clearly that the cup Ye Huan had was appraised by the president of the Antique Appraisal Association, Zhang Hongyu, as a genuine Yuan Dynasty porcelain imperial cup! Liu Dandans eyebrows furrowed slightly. Bai Yu tugging on her sleeve, could it be a hint? After some thought, she nodded in sudden realization, then looked at Liu Tianyun and sneered: "Tianyun, do you understand now? Ye Huan is just a clown who craves attention!" "And as for Xiao Yu, a gift worth 14,990,000, the highest-standard dining table, and its closest to your grandpa, far better than Ye Huan." "How about this, Ill forgive you on Xiao Yus behalf this time, come sit with us!" Liu Dandan said with her hands on her hips, beaming. Her eyes and words were full of mockery towards Ye Huan. Bai Yu anxiously tugged at her sleeve again. Liu Dandan caught on and blinked knowingly before adding, "Liu Tianyun, a chance like this doesnt come around often, dont miss it." "I dont need it!" Liu Tianyun replied coldly. "Not even sitting at the highest-standard dining table? Totally ungrateful!" Liu Dandan fumed, "Xiao Yu, lets not bother with her, lets go in!" Saying that, she stomped angrily into the mansion. Bai Yus face was flushed, but he still followed in. "Miss, what do you think about this..." The steward looked awkward. As the useful assistant to Old Master Liu, he naturally knew about the relationship between Liu Tianyun and Ye Huan. But such a situation where something of inferior quality was used instead, was beyond his expectations. "..." Liu Tianyun just attempted to speak. Ye Huan earnestly interjected, "Im not faking anything here, this really is a ten-billion worth Yuan Dynasty porcelain imperial cup, could we have your associations president, Zhang Hongyu, come and appraise it?" Others still in line grew impatient, cursing inwardly. Whats the deal? This guy insists an imitation teacup is an antique? This is simply wasting everyone elses time! Outrageous! The steward didnt speak, tentatively looking at Huang Shengren. Huang Shengren furrowed his brows and said, "Bringing in President Zhang for this fake item...?" As he spoke, he suddenly thought of something, his expression changed drastically. He recalled that a few days ago, when Zhang Hongyu returned to the association, he was overjoyed, exclaiming about seeing an authentic Yuan Dynasty porcelain imperial cup, and had met a connoisseur with even better appraisal skills than himself! Could this cup be... Huang Shengren carefully examined the porcelain cup again, but still couldnt see any clues. "Wait a moment, Ill call President Zhang; hes in the mansion." Huang Shengren said flatly, then dialed the number. Soon, a middle-aged man in a suit walked out of the mansion hall, exclaiming directly, "Yuan Dynasty porcelain imperial cup!" Huang Shengrens lips twitched twice, "President Zhang... Is this really a Yuan... Yuan Dynasty porcelain imperial cup?" "This cup, no matter from which angle, is a genuine Yuan Dynasty porcelain imperial cup!" Zhang Hongyu said with certainty, "You forgot that I once explored Emperor Yuans tomb with the archaeology team? There was a set of tea ware, missing only this cup." He then bowed slightly to Ye Huan, "Good day, sir!" Huang Shengren was stunned. President Zhangs spoken mention of a man with appraisal skills surpassing his was actually this young fellow? This... This is too unbelievable! "Gulp." Huang Shengren swallowed and said, "I owe this sir an apology, the prior evaluation was incorrect. After President Zhang Hongyus appraisal from our association..." He cleared his throat and raised the porcelain cup in his hand, "This cup is the Yuan Dynasty porcelain imperial cup used by Kublai Khan, valued at ten billion Huaxia Coins!" "Bang!!!" His words exploded in the ears of everyone like a thunderclap. The mocking expressions on everyones faces completely froze. This... this "broken cup" is actually truly a ten-billion Yuan Dynasty porcelain imperial cup? Wasnt it picked up from a street vendor? How could this be possible! They didnt dare believe it, but the appraisal came from the authority in the antique businessZhang Hongyuthey had no choice but to believe! For a moment, they all hid their gifts behind their backs, blushing furiously. Compared to that "broken cup," the so-called million-level gifts they had were instantly rendered worthless! "Wife, how is it? Enough face now, right?" Ye Huan said with a smile. Liu Tianyun remained silent, her face a bit flushed and looking strange. She never expected that this cup was indeed a ten-billion Yuan Dynasty porcelain imperial cup. So, was the old man who was going to lose money and jump into the river, as Ye Huan mentioned before, true? Ye Huan grinned, looking at the steward, "Got nothing to say now, right? Ten billion, what table am I sitting at?" "Uh..." The steward wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Please... let me consult..." Its truly not his fault. The highest-standard dining table in the Liu family mansion was at the ten million level; without Bai Yus gift, that set of furniture would still be collecting dust in storage... But the Kunlun Blood Jade that Bai Yu gifted, in front of this Yuan Dynasty porcelain imperial cup, is nothing! The Liu family simply didnt have a table set for the billion-level... Two minutes later, the steward hung up the phone, smiling, "Miss, and Mr. Ye, please follow me." Chapter 61: Old man, your days are numbered! Chapter 61: Chapter 61: Old man, your days are numbered!Watching the butler lead Ye Huan and Liu Tianyun into the hall, Liu Dandans face turned sour. Indeed, no matter what, Liu Tianyun is considered a model figure of the third generation of the Liu Family, and the family would definitely back her up no matter what. But in doing so, that damn security guard gets to bask in the glory! Damn it! Liu Dandan gritted her teeth, letting out a cold huff. Soon, she noticed the butler leading the two towards her, her face changed slightly as she stood up and said, "Uncle Zhou, what are you doing?" "Im seating them," the butler Zhou Yuanan said with a smile. "Seating?" Liu Dandans face turned livid, "Although the family is backing them up, theres no need to let them sit here, is there? Xiao Yu paid 14.99 million to enjoy this high-standard dining table." Zhou Yuanan was momentarily stunned, then looked embarrassed: "Miss, you must be mistaken..." "Mistaken about what!" Liu Dandan crossed her arms, stood up, and sneered, "I wont allow certain people to freeload. This table is not one he is qualified to sit at!" "Miss, please move aside, you really are mistaken..." Liu Dandan spat, looking dissatisfied: "I am not mistaken, I just wont allow them to sit here." Bai Yu tugged at her sleeve again, attempting to prevent her from speaking further, otherwise her face would be humiliated beyond repair! When he saw Zhang Hongyu exit the hall, he anticipated that Ye Huan would receive the highest level of hospitality... His so-called golden invitation and that blood jade, in front of Ye Huans Yuanqing celadon imperial cup, were nothing but jokes! "Xiao Yu, at this point, why are you still defending that ungrateful woman Liu Tianyun? If she doesnt want to sit, then so be it!" Bai Yu was anxious: "Aunt Liu, thats not what I mean!" "I understand you." Liu Dandan nodded resolutely, "I know you really want Tianyun to sit at the table, but she doesnt have the blessing, theres no need to force it!" "No, Im..." Without waiting for Bai Yu to continue, Liu Dandan snorted coldly, her voice deep, "No way, she cant sit here today!" sea??h th novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "This..." Zhou Yuanan sighed helplessly, then walked to the side. Ye Huan and Liu Tianyun followed him without saying a word. "Tch, a toad wanting to eat swan meat? No way!" Liu Dandan curled her lips disdainfully. But next, she suddenly exclaimed, "Uncle Zhou, why are you seating them there? Thats Dads special dining table!" The dad she referred to was naturally the head of the Liu Family, Liu Aimin. Zhou Yuanan said, "Miss, Ye Huan just gifted a Yuanqing celadon imperial cup worth a billion, but we didnt prepare a table of that standard, so I consulted the master..." He cleared his throat and said, "The master said to add two chairs next to his table." With that, he instructed the maids to bring two redwood and gold-threaded chairs, placing them next to the wooden table at the very back of the hall. Liu Dandan was dumbfounded, grabbing Zhou Yuanans arm in disbelief: "Uncle Zhou, are you... are you mistaken? This... this is a large banquet, my... my dad should have a separate table, and... and a billion in value? He just gave a lousy cup!" "Miss Liu, thats where youre wrong!" Zhang Hongyu came over, smiling, "That cup is indeed a genuine Yuanqing celadon imperial cup, worth a billion!" Zhou Yuanan also said, "We didnt have a table for a billion, so Master instructed Ye Huan and the young lady to sit there, thats a direct order from the Master." "What!" Liu Dandans mouth could fit a stone, frozen on the spot. A billion? Yuanqing celadon imperial cup? Sitting next to Liu Aimin? What... whats going on! She was completely stunned. Soon, everyone entered the banquet hall. Without exception, they all cast envious glances towards Ye Huan and Liu Tianyun. The old master of the Liu Family, Liu Aimin, was the oldest entrepreneur in Celestial Sea City, highly respected, even the mayor had to show him respect! Yet because of his old age and the lack of a designated Liu Family heir, at previous large banquets, to avoid suspicion, he would choose to sit alone. Now, that tradition was broken. This unidentified man, with an extravagant gift worth a billion, brought Liu Tianyun with him to gain the opportunity to sit at the same table! "Hey, what do you think is the relationship between Miss Liu and that man?" "I think its unusual, otherwise why would they appear together and gift something worth a billion?" "Ive never heard of any scandals about Miss Liu before, whats going on?" "No matter what, all we can do is be envious!" "Yes indeed..." A lot of people began whispering, their words filled with envy for the two. Being able to dine with Liu Aimin, especially at such an event, is an enormous honor! The surrounding chatter made Liu Dandans face turn livid. She glared with anger. A table worth 14.99 million at the highest standard? Comparing that to dining with Liu Aimin, its nothing but a big joke! That "clown" wasnt lying, his gift brought immense face! Now, it was not herself receiving the attention of the masses, but the "clown son-in-law" she despised the most, how infuriating! At the same time, she also deeply regretted it, her long nails embedded into her flesh, drawing blood. If she had believed Ye Huans words, another chair would have been added next to that table! In that case, she would have also been the object of envy for all the socialites present! Regret, such deep regret! Liu Dandans face was filled with remorse. ... At nine-thirty in the evening, the grand banquet celebrating Liu Aimins seventieth birthday officially began. Zhou Yuanan, the butler of the Liu Family mansion, slowly pushed a wheelchair down from the spiral staircase on the second floor. Sitting in the wheelchair was an old man with white hair, the focal point of the banquetLiu Aimin! Liu Aimin had reached his seventies, yet the aura between his eyebrows did not diminish at all, his body was imposing, as if possessing the courage of a thousand men. His deep eyes seemed to hold a thousand galaxies, his sword-like brows were sharp as blades, exuding an extraordinary aura. "Greetings, Patriarch!" Everyone stood up, bowing respectfully to him. "Hmm, I hope you all enjoy yourselves." Liu Aimin nodded slightly, just sitting there, he exuded an aura of authority without anger. With that, he then maneuvered the wheelchair to the frontmost table. "Grandpa," Liu Tianyun greeted with a smile, then helped Liu Aimin into the chair, her face showing a hint of guilt. This elderly man, who brought her from the orphanage into the Liu Family and raised her, he had aged so much over the past two years. "Young man..." Liu Aimin looked calmly at Ye Huan, then suddenly smiled, "You must be my old friends cherished disciple, Ye Huan, right?" His sudden smile shocked everyone in the Liu Family. This usually stern and unsmiling elder was now smiling at this man? In stark contrast to his authoritative demeanor, Liu Aimins smile was surprisingly amiable, resembling a kindly grandfather. Ye Huan rubbed his chin, pondered for a while, then astonishingly said: "Old man, you dont have much time left!" Chapter 62: Men are speaking, women should not interrupt! Chapter 62: Chapter 62: Men are speaking, women should not interrupt!"Pfft!" Many of the guests already dining couldnt hold back and sprayed the food from their mouths... Liu Tianyuns face was as cold as ice, and she stood up with a stern expression, freezing the atmosphere. The servants by the table and the butler Zhou Yuanan shivered suddenly. They all showed unfriendly expressions afterward. On the day of Old Master Lius seventieth birthday, how could this guy speak so rudely, cursing that the old man wouldnt live much longer? "A womans place is not to speak out of turn, sit down!" Liu Aimin shouted sternly. "But..." Liu Tianyun took a deep breath, ultimately retracting her murderous gaze, and sat down with clenched teeth. "Haha, Little Ye, where is this coming from?" Liu Aimins demeanor changed instantly, smiling without a trace of dissatisfaction. "If Im not mistaken, you should be experiencing symptoms like fatigue, insomnia, coughing blood, night sweats, and dizziness recently, right, old man?" Ye Huan said while glancing around, his lips curling slightly... "Oh?" Liu Aimin was surprised, "Little Ye, you can tell my symptoms from so far away?" "Grandfather, do you really have these symptoms?" Liu Tianyuns expression became anxious. "Men are talking, women shouldnt interrupt!" Liu Aimin shouted sharply. "You..." Liu Tianyun gritted her teeth, turning her head with a face ashen with anger. Grandfather, what kind of spell has been cast on you? How can you treat Ye Huan like a treasure? Liu Aimin looked at Ye Huan, once again changing his expression, smiling, "Little Ye, since youve noticed my symptoms, do you know what my problem is?" "Frankly speaking, Im an old Chinese medicine doctor. As for your condition..." Ye Huan showed a meaningful expression, "You have hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and hyperglycemia. You need to exercise well, or you wont live more than fifty years!" Fifty years? Liu Aimin was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, "Little Ye, you really know how to talk, haha!" "I wouldnt say its just about knowing how to talk. I truly know that you will definitely live to a hundred." Ye Huan said with a smile. At the same time, at a table not far away, Bai Yu and Liu Dandan were covered in a layer of sweat on their foreheads. They glanced at each other and both sighed in relief, a sly look flashing in their eyes, nodding slightly to each other. When Ye Huan mentioned those symptoms, they almost fainted with fear on the spot. Now it seems Ye Huan is just trying to flatter Liu Aimin, with no real skills. The "three highs" are common among the elderly and are considered mere ailments, rather than diseases. ... "Grandfather, the doctors have told you years ago not to drink!" Liu Tianyun exclaimed, grabbing the cup from Liu Aimins hand. "Men do things their own way, do you as a woman need to teach them? Have you no upbringing?" Liu Aimin slammed the table, scolding coldly, "What kind of man doesnt drink? Give me back the cup!" Liu Tianyun was furious, but stayed silent, turning her head away. Liu Aimins face turned ashen: "This is outrageous! Little Ye, is this girl always so unruly?" Unruly? Thats an understatement! Fining just for calling someone "wife", who could bear that! Ye Huan wanted to slam the table and denounce all of Liu Tianyuns "crimes." But he dared not. Though it may feel good temporarily, there would be consequences when they returned to Penglai Lakefront. "No way, old man, youre overthinking. Tianyun and I get along very well." Ye Huan said while munching on peanuts, "And I dont drink, so you dont need to go through such lengths." "Dont drink? Not drinking is great. Young people these days, starting to smoke and drink at seventeen, eighteen, or even younger, its absurd. Little Ye, youre truly a self-disciplined good man!" Liu Aimin laughed heartily, his eyes narrowing with satisfaction, looking at Ye Huan as if he were a mother-in-law examining her son-in-law, more pleased the more he looked. Liu Tianyun nearly stumbled and fell headlong to the ground. You were just saying that a man is not a man if he doesnt drink! Now youre saying that not drinking shows self-control? Can you stick to one principle? "Little Ye, how is your master these days? To be honest..." Liu Aimin thought for a few seconds, "Come to think of it, I havent seen him in over a decade." "That old scoundrel isnt dead yet. Hes either peeping at Cuihua or stealing chickens in the village. Im ashamed to have such a master!" Ye Huan said, peeling peanuts with a deeply pained expression. "Uh..." Liu Aimin smiled awkwardly. One gaze at the world, and probably only this young man could dare to comment like this about that gentleman. "Hmph." Liu Tianyun sneered. Indeed, what kind of master makes what kind of disciple! "Liu Tianyun, what kind of expression is that!" Liu Aimins expression turned unfriendly. "I... whats wrong with my expression!" Liu Tianyun gritted her teeth, "Grandfather, are you mistaken? Why are you so nice to him? He... he is just a scoun..." "BAM!!!" Liu Aimin angrily slammed the table, his beard bristling in rage. The force was so strong that several cracks appeared on the table. "Liu Tianyun, hasnt anyone taught you to always maintain your husbands dignity, regardless of circumstances, outside?" "I... I..." Liu Tianyun said with an aggrieved look, lowering her head, "I understand." Ye Huans expression was fascinating, his lips curling up once more. This ice queen actually showed such an expression? What a revelation! It seems that if he wants to manage her in the future, he just needs to bring her to the Liu Family mansion from time to time. S~ea??h the novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. However, Liu Aimins words caused a huge uproar among the crowd. "Wow, this... this guy is actually the husband of Miss Liu?" "My God, how is that possible!" "Hes able to casually present a ten billion gift and marry Miss Liu in silence without any leak; what on earth is his identity?" "Could his identity be a young master from a big family in the Capital City?" "I think thats possible!" The crowd murmured and unanimously agreed with this opinion. Liu Tianyun left the Liu Family mansion to escape marriage for two whole years, only returning now for Liu Aimins seventieth birthday banquet... This likely indicates that she accepted the marriage. All the young masters in Celestial Sea, including the now strongest Bai Family, had proposed to the Liu Family, hoping to marry the first beauty of Celestial Sea. But invariably. The proposals were either rejected by Liu Tianyun or Liu Aimin. Now, both of them have accepted this marriage. Who exactly is he? They couldnt imagine. Those who had previously mocked Ye Huan now panicked, crawling out of the hall from under the tables, not wanting to draw attention. Its a joke; if a young master from the Capital City targeted you, you could disappear from Celestial Sea at worst, or even bring disaster upon your whole family! At this moment, Zhou Yuanan took a document from a servant and handed it to Liu Aimin. "Ahem. Ahem." Liu Aimin cleared his throat, his words filled with authority: "Today, on my seventieth birthday, I take this opportunity to announce a significant matter!" Chapter 63: Capture Them All! Chapter 63: Chapter 63: Capture Them All!A major event? The crowd felt a slight tremor in their hearts. Could it be... The words Liu Aimin said next stunned everyone in the room. "Among the four major families, the Bai, Zhang, and Han families have all long decided on their heirs." "But as for my Liu Family, I still havent decided an heir, and the reason is..." "Its because the younger generation of the Liu Family is an absolute mess, completely useless, not one of them is up to the task!" "Except for one person, she single-handedly founded the Tianyun Group and within two years brought it to a valuation of over a hundred billionLiu Tianyun." "Taking this opportunity, I will transfer all 51% of my stake in the Liu Corporation to her and her husbandYe Huan!" Liu Aimin placed his hands on the sides of his wheelchair, slapped the document on the table, and began signing his name on the share transfer agreement. "Wait a minute!" At this moment, the younger members of the Liu Family stood up in panic. But they were obviously too late. The sound of the pen scratching fell, indicating that Liu Aimin had signed, officially transferring the 51% shares he held in the Liu Corporation to Liu Tianyun and Ye Huan. "Grandpa, what do you mean by this?" "How can Liu Tianyun, a mere woman, inherit this vast Liu Family?" A man in a suit stood up and shouted angrily. Sarch* The N?vel?ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The man next to him also stood up and chimed in, "Exactly, this will make others think the men of the Liu Family are incompetent and will bring us ridicule throughout Celestial Sea!" Liu Aimins icy gaze swept over the two of them. The anger on their faces immediately disappeared, but they still looked unconvinced. "You two are the sons of my third child, arent you? I remember you, one caused a 600 million loss to the family, and the other a 1.5 billion loss," Liu Aimin said flatly, "Are you saying youre qualified to inherit the Liu Family?" "We..." The two brothers turned red with anger and gnashed their teeth. The rest of the Liu Family also looked extremely grim. "Grandpa, this... how is this okay..." Liu Tianyun came to her senses and gasped. Although Liu Aimin had promised her that as long as she completed the arranged marriage, she could inherit the Liu Family. But now that it had come to this point, she still found it hard to believe. "Its perfectly fine; just look at your cousins." Liu Aimin shook his head in disappointment, "Apart from indulging in food, drink, gambling, and buying luxury goods, squandering family wealth, they are useless! If I hand the Liu Family over to them, it would be bankrupt within five years!" "This..." Liu Tianyun hesitated. "We accept!" Ye Huan said with a smile, glanced at the share transfer agreement, and then put it into his pocket. Liu Aimin nodded in satisfaction. With the matter settled, most of the other Liu Family members left the venue angrily. The social elites and business people, upon learning of such major news, naturally went to spread the word immediately. ... Liu Family mansion, top floor. Unlike the exteriors European-style villa, the room was filled with antique decorations, the floor was made of redwood, and a small incense burner on the window-side table emitted a thin trail of smoke, swirling around the burner. Liu Tianyun pushed the wheelchair into the room, the wheels making a creaking sound on the floor. "Old man, you dont have much longer to live," Ye Huan said, chewing on a toothpick and leaning against the door. "What kind of talk is that?" Liu Tianyun said angrily, "One joke is enough." "Im not joking," Ye Huan shrugged helplessly. As soon as he finished speaking... Liu Aimin clutched his stomach, his eyes bulging like copper bells, his mouth puffed up like a balloon... Not long after, he spat out a mouthful of black blood. "Poof!" The black blood splattered on the floor, looking very creepy. "Grandpa!" "Master!" Liu Tianyun and the butler exclaimed in shock. "Get the Pain Relief Pills!" The butler waved his hand. The maid looked panicked, nodded, and began rummaging through the wooden cabinet on the side. Soon, the Pain Relief Pills were found. After taking the Pain Relief Pills, Liu Aimins pale face gradually gained some color after a few minutes. "Little Ye, you really hit the nail on the head with my ailment." Liu Aimins voice turned weak, and he sighed heavily. "Grandpa, then... then you should hurry to the hospital!" Liu Tianyun said urgently, "Treating an illness is a matter of urgency, shall we go now?" Liu Aimin shook his head, "I certainly know that I need to see a doctor when sick; I even sought treatment from the top doctors in traditional Chinese medicine, but they were helpless with my condition." "What!" Liu Tianyun was shocked. The top doctors in traditional Chinese medicine, they are the elders at the pinnacle of this field. They are reputed to save lives from King Yama as long as there is a breath left. It is said that those perplexing rare conditions that stump countless others are childs play to them, and they can solve all with ease. If even they are helpless against grandpas condition, then isnt grandpa truly as Ye Huan said, not long for this world? "Grandpa, Im sorry, these past two years..." Liu Tianyuns face was full of guilt, her voice trembling. "Tianyun, even if I pass, I believe the Liu Family can thrive in your hands." "But I must warn you, you have to be wary of the other members of the Liu Family, and the poison hands of the Bai Family, and also..." Liu Aimin was saying... Ye Huan interrupted directly, "Old man, why do you sound like youre rendering last rites?" "What kind of talk is that?" Liu Tianyun glared angrily. Ye Huan ignored her, walked straight to the puddle of black blood, and looked at Zhou Yuanan indifferently. Zhou Yuanan, perceptive enough, found an excuse and left with the servants. "Old man, this isnt an illness; youve been poisoned," Ye Huan said, "ZB201, colorless, tasteless, easily dissolves in water, its the deadliest poison that kills silently, its greatest potency is to disguise itself as various diseases, changing symptoms over time and making one never suspect theyre being poisoned." Hearing these words, both Liu Aimin and Liu Tianyun were stunned. Poisoned? To poison Old Master Liu? Who would be so full of themselves to do something like that? "Little Ye, are you certain Ive been poisoned?" "Yes." Receiving a definitive answer, Liu Aimin pressed his fists against his chin, his face turning extremely serious. If, as Ye Huan said, he had been poisoned... Then the mole must be right by his side! "And I need to tell you, I can cure this poison, but..." Ye Huans lips curled up slightly, "We also need to catch the mouse in one swoop..." Chapter 64 Daydreaming Chapter 64: Chapter 64 DaydreamingIn the Rolls-Royce. The atmosphere inside the car noticeably relaxed a lot. After hearing Ye Huans plan, Liu Tianyun had a markedly improved impression of her suddenly appearing "cheap husband." "Ye Huan, if you need any help, just let me know." "Of course, since youre my wife, as husband and wife, we should share good fortune and face difficulties together!" Ye Huan said with a beaming smile. "You..." Liu Tianyun was about to curse out loud, but after biting her tongue, she swallowed the words back down. Suddenly thinking of something, she extended her hand: "Let me see the equity transfer document." "Oh." Ye Huan maneuvered the steering wheel with his left hand and took the "equity transfer document" out of his pocket with his right hand. If others knew this multi-billion yuan paper was crumpled into a ball, they would undoubtedly want to take a blade to Ye Huans head! Liu Tianyun looked very displeased. But regardless of her feelings, the contribution Ye Huan made today was too significant to ignore, so she chose to endure. But the next second, she was shocked: "What, Grandpa actually gave you more than half of the shares, more than me?" "Yeah, is there a problem? Were married!" Ye Huans expression was refreshingly joyous. "We are just contractually married; these shares dont belong to you!" Liu Tianyun frowned. "But the rice has already been cooked, and your grandpa signed it. What can you do now?" Ye Huan whistled lightly, clearly in a good mood. The dog master took all my money and forced me to marry you. You folks are giving me billions for free; how could I not accept it? "Ye Huan, Im warning you one more time, we are contractually married. Two years later, you will have no relationship with the Liu Family, so you must transfer your shares to me, or Ill take you to court!" Liu Tianyuns face was dark as iron. Originally, her plan was to casually give Ye Huan one hundred million to get rid of him after two years. Who knew that Grandpa would be so muddleheaded, stating in the equity transfer agreement that it should be transferred to both Liu Tianyun and Ye Huan, each holding half of the shares. It must be noted that for such a behemoth as the Liu Family, this 22.5% equity could easily be worth over fifty billion on the market! "Wife, dont speak so rashly!" Ye Huan grinned, "As I said, if you fall for me and dont want a divorce later, itll be awkward for you." "You..." Liu Tianyun glared angrily, saying, "Ill give you a month to think about it, or Ill expose our relationship and still sue you in court!" "Then, wife, what are you going to sue me for?" Ye Huan smacked his lips with a smile, asking with a cheerful face. Sue for what? Liu Tianyun was stunned. The equity transfer wasnt instigated by Ye Huan, so he wasnt suspected of fraud or crossing any legal red lines... It was all actively transferred to him by Liu Aimin. And even if she took Ye Huan to court and exposed their relationship, it would be useless! Judging by how Grandpa treats him like a treasure... The one getting scolded would likely be herself! By then, not only would she not retrieve the equity, but her status as the Liu Family heir might also be affected. Liu Tianyun gritted her teeth, forced to swallow her anger for now, and would look for an opportunity to regain the equity later. Absolutely, Ye Huan must not seize this advantage! "Ring!" The phone rang. Ye Huan took out his phone, looked at the caller ID, and with a darkened expression, silently hung up the call. Soon, the "ring-ring" sound rang again. Once again, he hung up... And it rang again... "What, dont dare to pick up?" Liu Tianyun arched her delicate eyebrows: "Is it one of your women calling from outside? Dont worry, I wont mind. I told you that no matter how many women you have outside, its none of my business." "What... what are you saying, its just a telemarketer, shamelessly disturbing people in the middle of the night!" Ye Huan righteously berated, then directly turned off his phone. Truth be told, Ye Huan wasnt lying! Su Qingqing, being the sales department manager of Tianyun International, mainly worked in sales, which wasnt much different from marketing; not to mince words, she was just a top sales rep! ... Back at the Penglai Lakefront, Liu Tianyun, wearing a cold expression, marched straight to the second floor. Ye Huan wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, showered, and then turned his phone back on. Seeing 35 missed calls, Ye Huan was shocked with a black line across his head. "Ring ring." The phone rang again. Ye Huan wiped his nose, pressed the answer button, and then started cursing: "Marketing calls, disturbing the public in the middle of the night, disgusting or what!" With that, Ye Huan hung up the phone. The phone quickly rang again; Ye Huan answered and held the phone away from his ear. Sure enough, a shout that could pierce eardrums blasted through the line. "Ye Huan, are you crazy? Ive called you over thirty times, and not only did you not answer, but you also cursed at me?" "So what if Im a saleswoman? Did a saleswoman eat your familys rice?!" "Do you have a death wish? Ill recommend three coffins to you, all of great value, just perfect for burying you!" After the swearing subsided for a while. Ye Huan removed his finger from blocking his ear, awkwardly smiling: "Oh, its Minister Su, sorry, I forgot to save your number, my apologies." A heavy breathing was heard from the other end, Su Qingqing was clearly worn out from the yelling. Her tone was still unfriendly as she questioned, "I just called you so many times. Why didnt you answer?" "Come on, you call so late, and now its my fault?" Ye Huan grinned, took a sip of water, and continued, "I was just working on a large project, so I was quite busy!" "Not to mention youre just a security guard, what big project could you be working on so late at night!" "Minister Su, you underestimate people." Ye Huan replied earnestly, "I just completed a billion-dollar level project, making significant contributions to the progress of human civilization and the continuation of the Ye family line!" "Go on, tell me more, a billion?!?" Su Qingqing was speechless, suddenly getting dumbfounded as she spoke. A billion-dollar project? The development of human civilization? The continuation of the Ye family line? Could it be he wasnt answering the phone because he was... Su Qingqings face turned red enough to drip blood, and she flew into rage: "Ye Huan, youre dating me, yet you dare to seek pleasure elsewhere? Send me your location, and Ill come now and cripple you myself!" "Im an upright person; how could I do such disgraceful things!" Ye Huan slapped the table, his words firm and sonorous. "But what you just said, isnt that kind of dirty stuff?" Su Qingqing shouted, then suddenly sneered, "Or were you indulging in traditional handiwork?" "Pah, I have a wife, why would I need to do such things?" "You..." Su Qingqing, seething with rage, barked, "I see, you were picturing President Liu in your mind while you... am I right?" "My wife is President Liu, you dont believe it?" "Over my dead body do I believe it!" Su Qingqing fought to contain her anger, "I think I should take you to a mental hospital to get your delusions treated!" As soon as she finished speaking, a "beep" sound came from the phone. The call was cut off, making her furious. Grinding her teeth, she punched the large grey bear plush in front of her. Almost every man who met Liu Tianyun would unconsciously consider her a dream lover. This was understandable, after all, regardless of her external and internal qualities, Liu Tianyun far exceeded 99.9999% of women, which man wouldnt be captivated by her? She was angry because Ye Huan couldnt see reality clearly! While Liu Tianyun was definitely on a goddess level, she herself wasnt bad either, exceeding 95% of other women for sure! Yet he was dreaming in broad daylight, ignoring a present beauty like herself and fantasizing about President Liu as his wife, how outrageous! What kind of figure was President Liu? The president of Tianyun Group, the young lady of the Liu family, with looks on a World Celestial Queen level! How many men wanted to marry her? Even the elite young masters of Celestial Sea city pursued her, yet she wouldnt even spare them a glance. Let alone someone like Ye Huan, a mere security guard? He probably didnt even qualify to catch her eye! Yet he talks about marrying her? Impossible! The next moment, the VX notification alert sounded. Su Qingqing opened VX and found that Ye Huan had added her as a friend. Grinding her teeth, she accepted the request and started typing to scold him. "Ding-dong!" The alert sounded again. Seeing the photo that Ye Huan sent, she was completely stunned... Sear?h the N??elFir.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Chapter 65: Prince Charming? Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Prince Charming?In the photo, there was a small red booklet. The large characters "Marriage Certificate" came into view. Below the words was a photo of Ye Huan and Liu Tianyun together! This photo was like a bolt from the blue, leaving Su Qingqing dumbfounded, her eyes full of disbelief! "Dingdong." The notification sound from VX rang again. "Do you believe it now?" The message from Ye Huan even came with a smug emoticon. Su Qingqing was furious, pounding the screen hard: "Ye Huan, I cant believe youve gone so far as to make a fake marriage certificate? Is President Liu really that important to you?" She sent the message, eager to see how Ye Huan would explain. Brother Huan didnt bother explaining, he just sent a location. With that, Su Qingqing was completely petrified. Penglai Lakefront. This... isnt this President Lius residence? So youre saying... Ye Huan is really married? And the wife is... President Liu? Then what about the times I was kissed for nothing, seen all over, and even given a full-body massage, how do I resolve that! Tears sparkled in Su Qingqings eyes, she gritted her teeth, feeling aggrieved. Suddenly, she remembered something important happening tomorrow and took a deep breath before typing again. After sending the message, she threw her phone against the wall with all her might. With a "bang," the phone shattered into pieces. At the same time, Ye Huan was in black lines. "8 a.m. tomorrow, and youll face the consequences if youre late?" Brother Huans face turned dark, and he made a call back, trying to "request" a time adjustment. But Su Qingqings phone was already broken, and he couldnt reach her at all. Left with no choice, Brother Huan had no options and went back to sleep. ... "Whats the deal, cant even get a good sleep on a weekend!" Ye Huan was cursing, yet his eyes were dishonest, leering happily at the various pretty women passing by. Due to the autumn heatwave, the women were dressed very lightly, with hot pants matched with ultra-thin stockings and high heels, it was quite a pleasant sight. The women glanced at Ye Huan with disgust and quickly walked away. Penniless guy dare to stare at women, does he even know if theres enough cash in his wallet! Brother Huan had a toothpick in his mouth, with his hands on his knees, squatting at the street corner, with no image at all. "Rumble." The roar of a car engine came, a BMW 7 Series parked at the street corner. A lot of womens eyes lit up, some even intentionally pulling down their collars, revealing large areas of whiteness. After all, the price of a BMW 7 Series is as high as one million, those who can afford to drive it are richer than most. Sear?h the n??el Fire.nt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. In todays society, many people hope to get rich overnight, and these somewhat good-looking women are even more so. If they could get along with a wealthy person, why would they have to struggle to make ends meet? They looked forward to, hoping that a "white knight" would get out of the car and take them away. At this moment, Ye Huan looked closely at the license plate, stood up, and walked over. "Whats up with this country bumpkin, not afraid to dirty the car?" shouted many women in "anguish" in their hearts. The next second, their eyes widened. This "country bumpkin" actually opened the passenger door and got in? "Rumble." The cars roar resumed. Watching the car drive away, the womens eyes widened into circles. Turns out this car was here to pick up this "country bumpkin"? Bah, what country bumpkin! Hes a white knight! The women were heartbroken, the chance to be taken away by a white knight slipped away just like that! ... "Su Qingqing, the great beauty, where are you taking me this early morning? And you were half an hour late, not to mention I couldnt even reach you on the phone?" Ye Huan asked with a dissatisfied look, right fist supporting his chin. "Why do you have so much nonsense to say? I didnt call you out to hear your nonsense!" Su Qingqing said with a grim face, hearing the piercing honks from behind, she slammed the steering wheel, "Is the car behind crazy, its none of their business if I change lanes!" Ye Huans mouth twitched hard, wisely shutting his mouth. Youre late, not answering your phone, you forcibly change lanes, and its someone elses fault? Shameless to shift the blame! But these words could only be spoken in his heart, outwardly Brother Huan was very obedient. Though unsure why, this woman seemed to be going insane, better not provoke her. Half an hour later, Su Qingqing drove the car out of Celestial Sea City, entering the national highway. Ye Huan couldnt help but speak, "Minister Su, where the heck are we going? Youve even left Celestial Sea, surely you should tell me?" "This time, my goal is to die together with you, you scumbag." "..." Ye Huan felt utterly speechless and said, "Minister Su, my previous actions were all to save you, whether it was the first time at Tian Winter or several times later, none were intentional, and I told you many times I have a wife, you just didnt believe it, how is that my fault?" "If not you, then who? I was kissed for nothing? Touched for nothing? Massaged all over for nothing?" Tears welled up in Su Qingqings eyes, "You scumbag, do things without taking responsibility, why not just die!" "Damn, cant you understand me? I didnt do it on purpose!" "Not on purpose means you can touch me for free?" Su Qingqing glared viciously at Ye Huan, "Feel particularly good, feel particularly comfortable, right?" "Ah, comfortable..." Almost instinctively, Ye Huan quickly covered his mouth. "Ha!" Su Qingqing sneered, "Comfortable, with my skin so well maintained, how could it not feel comfortable?" "..." Brother Huan awkwardly smiled, saying nothing. "Im telling you, the reason I called you over is to ask for your help with something." Su Qingqing said, pulling out a pair of scissors from beneath the seat, "If you cant help me, or mess up, were going down together!" "You..." Ye Huans face darkened, "What kind of help? Just say it straight if you need assistance." "Be a shield." Su Qingqing said blandly, "My family lives in the countryside, with deeply ingrained feudal mindsets, saying that girls my age in the village already have two kids, so they are pressuring me to return home for blind dating and then get married." "Such a small matter, why didnt you just say so directly?" Ye Huan nonchalantly shrugged. "Say it directly? I just wont, what can you do to me?" Ye Huans face turned so black it resembled Bao Zhengs, he paid no more attention to her. The car drove for two hours, entering the village entrance within Jiangnan territory. The women were gathered by the creek at the village entrance, discussing the gossip of various families while washing clothes. Children were behind them, laughing and playing along with the crisp chirping of larks. As they watched the car, they paused their actions, whispering amongst themselves. Chapter 66 Zhong Dabiao Chapter 66: Chapter 66 Zhong Dabiao"How come theres such a fancy car in our village? Whats going on?" "Could it be that some familys girl got selected by a rich city guy again... wait, isnt today the day Su Familys girl is coming back? I heard shes doing well in the city, earning over a hundred thousand a month!" "Thats impressive, but isnt she back to have a matchmaking session with Zhong Dabiao this time?" "Su Familys girl is really out of luck, ending up with such a brother. Zhong Dabiao is the type who eats people without spitting out the bones!" The women exchanged glances and shook their heads. But they still put down what they were doing, wiped their hands on their clothes, and ran towards the Su Family house. ... "Vroom." The car engine gradually quieted down, parking under the shade of a six-story tall tree. Opposite the tree was a somewhat dilapidated old tile house, where a middle-aged couple wearing headscarves stood, along with a young man in a black tank top and arm tattoos, at the door. Seeing the car approaching, the couple showed joyful faces and quickly walked up. "Qingqing, youre finally back." Song Yanhong and Su Dahan smiled, then looked at Ye Huan getting out from the passenger seat, their faces showing confusion, "This... this is?" "Mom, Dad, Ive missed you so much!" Su Qingqing said joyfully, her cheeks blushing slightly, "This... this is... my boyfriend..." Boyfriend? Song Yanhong and Su Dahan looked puzzled. "Hello, Uncle, Auntie. Im Ye Huan, Qingqings boyfriend. Sorry for the sudden visit, I brought you some small gifts." Ye Huan said with a smile, holding two jugs of oil and two boxes of milk he carried from the car. "This..." Song Yanhong hesitated, then pulled Su Qingqing by the arm and took her aside. "Whats going on? You have a boyfriend and didnt tell us beforehand?" "Whats there to say? Im 25, cant I have a free relationship? And I planned to tell you later, but you keep pushing me for a matchmaking, so I could only bring him back!" Su Qingqing said, though her expression faltered, knowing she sort of tricked her parents. Wait, this... this is a "white lie"! Yes, a white lie! "Oh dear!" Song Yanhong said anxiously as she pinched Su Qingqings nose, "No one said you cant date freely. If youve found someone to spend your life with, your dad and I would be overjoyed!" "Thats settled then. Help me call off the matchmaking!" "Its not something we can just cancel at will. This matchmaking was arranged by your brother, the match is... Zhong Dabiao!" "What!" Su Qingqing exclaimed in shock, "The matchmaking is with Zhong Dabiao? Is my brother out of his mind?" "Your dad and I were against it from the start as well." Song Yanhong said helplessly, "But your brother assured us that Zhong Dabiao has reformed, and the Zhong Family has proposed many times, so we thought to let you come back for a look." "Reformed? A dog can quit eating crap first!" Su Qingqing said angrily. The couple nodded in agreement with Su Qingqings view. They knew better than anyone as villagers of Xiangyang Village what kind of person Zhong Dabiao was. Zhong Dabiao, the village bully, is the son of Zhong Laobiao, relying on his fathers influence, hes been a villain since childhood in the village. Common theft of villagers chickens, ducks, fish, and sheep aside, more egregiously, he uses the excuse of taking people to work in the city to lead them to gambling dens, getting them addicted, worsening the already not wealthy families. Every time this happens, Zhong Dabiao forces the villagers to pay debts using their daughters. Anyone who resists gets beaten half to death. In the end, through these methods, Zhong Dabiao not only embezzles villagers properties but also violates many girls, under the guise of "marrying them in the future," only to give them a few hundred bucks as a "dismissal fee" once he grows tired. Many villagers wanted to report to the police, but the Zhong Familys influence is too extensive, having many connections even in Celestial Sea City. Those who went to report hardly returned. Over time, the villagers were too scared to voice their anger, only daring to warn their children not to associate with Zhong Dabiao. Marrying their daughter to such a person for a matchmaking, the couple was utterly unwilling. But under the pressure from Zhong Family and their own son, they had agreed. If they backtracked now, Zhong Dabiao would definitely be furious, leading to unimaginable consequences... "You... you better return to Celestial Sea quickly." Su Dahan said sternly, "Before Zhong Dabiao arrives, go while you still can, or itll be too late later." "No way!" Su Qingqing said anxiously, "You know the kind of person he is, if I leave, hell definitely harm you!" "Messing with us is a small issue. If you stay and he finds out you have a boyfriend, I cant imagine what hed do to you!" Su Dahan said gravely. "Its alright, Uncle. Im here." Ye Huan smiled. Su Dahan sighed, patting Ye Huans shoulder, "Ye, we cant afford to provoke Zhong Dabiao. You should return to Celestial Sea first." Being impulsive is one thing, but this isnt an issue that can be resolved with impulse alone. What kind of person is Zhong Dabiao? Hes notorious for miles around as a known bully! With countless blood on his hands, opposing him never ends well! Su Qingqing clearly understood this too, frowning slightly, "Mom, Dad, how about... you come to the city with me?" "No way." The couple said in unison, "If we leave, your brother will be in big trouble, not being beaten to death isnt impossible!" Su Qingqing bit her lip, feeling helpless, "Isnt there anyone who can deal with him?" "Ill deal with him," Ye Huan said. Although he wasnt sure what kind of person Zhong Dabiao was, it was clear from the reactions that hes someone who commits all sorts of evil. If he dares to cause trouble... Huan wouldnt mind teaching him how to be human... But in Su Qingqings eyes, Ye Huan going against Zhong Dabiao was like a mantis trying to stop a chariota sure death! She was very displeased with Ye Huan, the "scumbag," and had constantly said she wanted to deal with him. But now she was worried about his situation. Su Qingqing hesitated for a few seconds, grabbed Ye Huans hand, and placed the car keys in his palm, "You, take my parents and go to Celestial Sea City to report to the police!" "No way!" Song Yanhong and Su Dahan spoke out simultaneously. Leaving their daughter alone in the village? One could imagine the consequences. Zhong Dabiao would never let Su Qingqing have a good time! Ye Huan also shrugged, "You want me to run away, thats too shameful, I cant do it." Sar?h the novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Its better to be shamed than dead, hurry and take my parents to Celestial Sea!" Su Qingqing pushed Ye Huan. Huan allowed her to push him, not moving an inch. A minute later, Su Qingqing stopped, panting in anger, "Why wont you leave?" "Even if the sky falls, Ive got it. What are you panicking for?" "What the hell do you know about Zhong Dabiao?" Su Qingqing was still speaking... Not far away, a man appeared and waved with a smile seeing Su Qingqing... "Little sis, youre finally back, your big brother missed you so much!" Chapter 67: She is My Woman Chapter 67: Chapter 67: She is My WomanSu Zhiqiang smiled and ran over. But when he saw there was a man beside Su Qingqing, his smile froze instantly. "Bro, what are you doing?" Su Qingqings eyes widened in anger, "Youre actually setting me up for a matchmaking with Zhong Dabiao? Isnt this pushing me into a fire pit?" Su Zhiqiang snapped back, looking earnest and sincere, and said, "Sis, Brother Zhong has already promised me that this time he seriously wants to get married, and he wont do those nasty things anymore in the future. Just rest assured." After speaking, he frowned slightly, looking at Ye Huan, "And this is..." "He is my boyfriend." Su Qingqings face was ashen, "I wont go to the matchmaking, and I dont believe Zhong Dabiao can change his ways!" As soon as these words came out. Su Zhiqiangs face changed instantly. Not going to the matchmaking? Then wouldnt the promise he made to Zhong Dabiao fall apart, and what consequences would he face... Thinking of Zhong Dabiaos ruthless methods, his body couldnt help but shiver. "Dad... Mom, please persuade Qingqing, if... if she doesnt go to the matchmaking, I... Im done for!" Su Zhiqiang pleaded tremulously, "If Zhong Dabiao thinks Im tricking him, Ill have... no place to bury my own body!" Su Dahai and Song Yanhong both sighed. Of course, they didnt want to see their son in trouble, but they also couldnt accept their daughter ruining her life with such a person! "Bro, why are you good and well, forcing me to marry Zhong Dabiao?" Su Qingqing frowned and asked. Su Zhiqiangs mouth twitched, and a fine sweat broke out on his forehead. He didnt speak, but looked at Ye Huan, "Bro, you better leave, my sister came back today to meet a big brother from the village for matchmaking. If he finds out my sister brought a man back, he definitely wont spare you!" "Brother-in-law, youre speaking too narrowly." Ye Huan looked serious, "As a man, if you dont dare take responsibility for this, are you still called a man?" "Do you... do you know what kind of person Zhong Dabiao is? If you take this responsibility, you might... might even lose your life!" Sear?h the Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Then let it be~" Ye Huan looked indifferent, even whistling lightly. Su Zhiqiang was furious, his fists clenched tightly. "How about this..." Su Qingqing thought for a while and said, "My car is big enough, why dont we all go to the city as a family, how does that sound?" "No way, the Zhong family also has connections in the city, we wont be able to escape! Ah!" A look of despair appeared in Su Zhiqiangs eyes as he sat heavily on the stone bench beside the tree and sighed deeply. "Bro, cant you stop being such a coward!" "So what if he has connections, at worst, well report it to the police!" "This is a law-abiding society, what can Zhong Dabiao do, overturn the sky?" Su Qingqing crossed her arms, looking displeased. "Zhong Dabiaos power is unimaginable to you, little sister, we cant afford to provoke him!" Su Zhiqiang kept shaking his head and sighing, "Opposing him leads only to a dead end!" Su Qingqing was almost driven mad with anger, gritting her teeth. Her brother didnt even have a single thought of resistance? She knew he was cowardly before, but didnt expect him to be this cowardly! Even though Ye Huan was a scumbag, he still had some sense of responsibility! "..." After a long silence. Su Zhiqiang looked desperate and said, "Little sister, maybe... we should all go to the Zhong family and kneel to apologize..." Before he could finish... Su Qingqings face looked even worse... "Zhiqiang, I heard your little sister came back to the village? Ive really missed her dearly!" A sudden voice came from not far away, causing the four members of the Su family to change their expressions. This voice was extremely shrill, more jarring than those effeminate young idols popular in Huaxia, making people feel very uncomfortable. "Tap. Tap. Tap." With synchronized footsteps, four hulking, burly men over 190 cm tall were carrying a sedan chair toward them. The sedan was put down, and before the person was even visible, a massive beer belly appeared first from the curtain. Afterward, the short and extremely obese Zhong Dabiao stepped down from the sedan. His grotesque face almost made Brother Huan vomit his meal from the day before! Zhong Dabiaos nose was collapsed, and his squinting eyes from afar looked like small slits, his face was even larger than a dish plate, and there was a mole next to his sausage-like mouth, bigger than his eyes, with two long hairs growing from it. Plus, his round beer belly, weighing 300 pounds, paired with his short stature of 155 cm, made him look like a ridiculously fat catfish! He stood among the four bodyguards like a baby next to giants, creating an intense visual impact. Su Zhiqiang hastily got up, ingratiatingly nodding and bowing, saying, "Master Zhong, your presence in our humble home is truly an honor for us!" "No worries, I just wanted to see the beautiful sister you mentioned. If her quality is as good as you say, then my trip here in civilian clothes isnt a loss." Zhong Dabiao stroked the long hairs on the mole at the corner of his mouth, looking around, his eyes finally settling on Su Qingqing. "Wow!" His eyes brightened, revealing a licentious gleam, "Wow, this... the quality is really... not bad..." Zhong Dabiao smirked obscenely, his eyes fixed on Su Qingqings body, and his mouth unconsciously opened, saliva dripping straight to the ground from the corner of his mouth. With such an appearance, coupled with his inherently ugly face, it was as perverted as it could be! "You..." Su Qingqing looked disgusted, her figure flashed, hiding behind Ye Huan, and clutched Brother Huans shirt. Seeing the beauty vanish from his view, Zhong Dabiaos lecherous smile finally withdrew a bit. He tilted his head back, shaking it a few times, to fling off the saliva, creating an extremely uncomfortable sight. Ye Huan could no longer endure it and said, "Dude, being as disgusting as you are is truly an achievement. Are you alive just to pollute the air?" "In Xiangyang Village, youre the first to dare point fingers at me like this, but Im in a good mood today, so I wont hold it against you." Zhong Dabiao spit disdainfully, then looked at Su Zhiqiang, "Im satisfied with your sister, I want to take her back for the wedding night, any objections?" "No way!" Su Dahai and Song Yanhong shouted in unison. "No way? What about your opinion!" Zhong Dabiaos voice deepened slightly, looking at Su Zhiqiang indifferently. "This... this..." Su Zhiqiangs eyes darted, then he gritted his teeth and said, "Master Zhong, your terms should satisfy my sister too, you... you can take her back now!" "Bullshit!" Su Qingqings eyes widened in anger, "Even disregarding Zhong Dabiaos utterly poor character, do you think Id be into someone who looks like a fat catfish?" "Damn it!" Zhong Dabiao was furious, rolling up his sleeves as if about to slap Su Qingqing. His ugly appearance was his sore point, and those who mocked him during childhood either ended up in the Yellow Springs or became vegetative. This not happening to him in the village for a long time now. He was very angry! "Crack." His hand was caught by Ye Huan, who flashed a cold look, "Kid, are you going to stop me from disciplining my woman?" "Your woman? Please take a piss and see if youre worthy. Besides..." Ye Huan, smiling, put his arm around Su Qingqings shoulder, "Shes my woman." Chapter 68: Never Heard Such a Strange Request Chapter 68: Chapter 68: Never Heard Such a Strange RequestSu Qingqings pretty face turned slightly red, but her breathing steadied. Though she appeared calm on the surface, she was still a bit flustered inside. However, in the moment she was embraced, she felt a surge of security rising within, making her heart race. "Thats... thats it." Su Zhiqiangs legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground. His entire body trembled uncontrollably. Being provoked like this, Zhong Dabiaos anger would certainly spill over to him. Everything, everything is over... He fell into despair. Zhong Dabiao sneered coldly, "Su Zhiqiang, it seems you have a death wish, doing such a thing? Watch how I dont kill you later!" "Get him first! Finish him off!" Zhong Dabiao twirled his mustache and waved his large hand. Four hulking bodyguards, fists clenched, with menacing faces. They swung their fists directly towards Ye Huan. "Whoosh!" A gust of wind suddenly sounded in everyones ears, causing the Su Family members to scream in panic, then quickly shut their eyes, not daring to watch. They remembered the origins of Zhong Dabiaos bodyguards, said to be elite fighters hired from a boss in the city, with enough strength to single-handedly challenge special forces! Zhong Dabiaos rampant presence in the village had some reason to do with these incredibly powerful bodyguards! These bodyguards had firm and full muscles, massive bodies, and with a swing of a punch came the sound of wind breaking, the force undeniably great! This punch could break through ten layers of steel plates! If it were to hit a persons flesh... Without a doubt, it would shatter the internal organs, leading to instant death on the spot! Su Da Hai and his wife showed unwillingness, their lips quivering. Sear?h the N??elFir.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. No matter what, this young chap had nothing to do with this incident, yet now hes going to... Zhong Dabiao turned his back, his head held high, a disdainful curve at his lips. Going against me? You wont get away unscathed! Yet, his mouth started watering again, not only would he beat this lad to a pulp today, but he could also claim his woman, delightful! Utterly delightful! Haha! "Ah!!!" Screams sounded as expected. The face of the Su Family members showed deeper unwillingness. But soon, they were puzzled. These screams didnt sound like they came from their daughters partner? The four members of the Su Family slowly opened their eyes, stunned on the spot, their eyes as wide as eggs. What... what is going on here? Ye Huan not only wasnt knocked to the ground, but the strong fighters were the ones lying down and wailing? Meanwhile, Zhong Dabiao furrowed his brows, realizing the sounds seemed off. He turned his head, legs buckled instantly, and he sat back down on the stone with a groan, then hurriedly tried to get up... But before he could stand, Ye Huan stomped him back down. Ye Huan bit down on a toothpick, sneered, "Zhong Dabiao, huh? You really put on a show, even dare others to lay hands on me?" "You... dont be arrogant..." Zhong Dabiao cursed, "You dare to trample me like this, youre the first one. Do you know who youre dealing with!" "Who are you? Let me guess, could you be the stinking catfish crawling out from a stinking ditch?" Ye Huans lips curled up, speaking with a smile. "Damn, kid, dont push my limits. You have one minute to move your foot, then kneel and apologize!" Zhong Dabiao yelled, yet the fear in his eyes betrayed his inner panic. He was extremely disoriented, shocked within. He knew best how strong his bodyguards were! Zhong Dabiaos lips even trembled, vividly remembering hiring those four bodyguards from Lord Ba for a high price after witnessing them fight a tiger barehanded, punch through a meter-thick steel plate, and chop ten bricks bare-handed, incredibly powerful! Bringing them back made him feel it was worth the money for sure. They cleared many obstacles for him, even saved his life, money well spent! Yet now, fighting four against one, they were half-beaten by this unknown man? What the hell is going on! Who is this man with such strength? He couldnt imagine, only attempting to use family power to intimidate Ye Huan. "Kid, Im from the village bully familythe big young master of the Zhong Family, and you dare treat me so... disrespectfully?" "Why not? Im trampling you, what can you do about it?" Ye Huan sneered repeatedly. At this moment, Su Zhiqiang turned alarmed, angrily pointing at Ye Huan and shouted, "What are you doing, how dare you be so rude to Brother Zhong!" "Brother, why are you yelling at Ye Huan? He helped us a lot!" Su Qingqing gritted her teeth. "What do you know!" Su Zhiqiang looked panicked, limbs trembling nonstop, eyes thick with fear, "Hes arrogant now, but once hes done, can he withstand Zhong Familys retaliation! If Brother Zhong gets upset, our family will be finished!" Su Qingqing was nearly driven mad, stomping in frustration. "Exactly!" Zhong Dabiao wore a smug look, sneered, "Let me tell you, if you dont lift your foot now, my Zhong family definitely wont let you go!" "Oh? Is your Zhong Family that formidable?" Ye Huan smiled pleasantly. "Of course, go inquire within ten miles, who isnt afraid of my Zhong Family!" "Put it this way, I know many people hate me, but so what?" "Even if I stand here and let them hit, just see if they dare to make a move!" Zhong Dabiaos voice grew louder, more arrogant with each word: "Kid, Im lying here, let you hit, do you dare hit?" "Oh? Such a strange request, its the first time Ive heard." Ye Huan spoke meaningfully. Then he lifted his fist... ... "Ah... ah!" Pig-like screams echoed in the sky, Zhong Dabiao lay on the ground, bruised and swollen, his already flabby face expanded a few more degrees due to swelling. He never imagined Ye Huan, knowing his background, would still dare act! Ye Huan, biting a toothpick, stomped on his head, twisting his toes harshly. This made Zhong Dabiaos initially wretched howls become even more irredeemable. "Its over... its over..." Su Zhiqiang covered his cheeks, kneeling before Zhong Dabiao, lips trembling, repeatedly uttering these words. "Brother, calm down, a single Zhong Family frightens you this much?" Su Qingqing grabbed Su Zhiqiangs arm, attempting to pull him up. Su Zhiqiang, however, shook her off angrily, yelling, "What do you know! What do you know! This kid provoked the Zhong family, he will doom us all, do you understand!!!" Su Qingqing backed up several steps, shaking her head uncontrollably, face puzzled, "Brother, why... why are you so afraid of the Zhong Family? Why!?" "Why, because..." Su Zhiqiang said, suddenly covered his mouth, turned his head away. "Let me say why." "Because your brother owes the Zhong Family two million!" "He cant repay, wants to hide from family, so proposed a matchmaking." "Simply put, he wants to use you to pay off his debt, while maintaining a good name." "Now, understand?" The sudden voice made Su Zhiqiangs face turn ashen instantly. He knew, his secret couldnt be kept anymore... Chapter 69: Greetings, Boss Ye! Chapter 69: Chapter 69: Greetings, Boss Ye!"My brother would never do such a thing, whos spreading nonsense!" Su Qingqing didnt believe it one bit and was a little angry. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw a middle-aged man with a bloated figure, leading dozens of bodyguards with wooden sticks, and she instinctively shivered. The real village bully of Xiangyang VillageZhong Dabiao! Su Qingqings face showed fear, but she quickly calmed down. Her brother, Su Zhiqiang, was timid, she knew this very well. But she knew that on matters of right and wrong, Su Zhiqiang would never be ambiguous! Her gaze was firm, "My brother is not the kind of person you say he is!" "Whether your brother is that kind of person, you should ask him yourself." "You..." Su Qingqing looked at Su Zhiqiang. Su Zhiqiang lowered his head, fists clenched. Zhong Dabiao walked over with both hands in his pockets, a cigar in his mouth. As he walked, his bare upper body, full of fat, jiggled, causing both visual impact and disgust at the same time. He was even uglier than Zhong Dabiao! In fact, he was only 1.4 meters tall! "Old man, by my assessment..." Ye Huan said earnestly, "You and your son are definitely biologically related. When it comes down to it, for your son to be this ugly, you, as the father, should take full responsibility." Zhong Dabiaos expression was indifferent, "Im not that easy to anger, but it was you, wasnt it, who beat up my precious son like that?" "Ive already stepped on your sons face, are you blind?" "Ha, how arrogant!" Zhong Dabiao removed the cigar from his mouth, "Get him, cripple him!" "Wait!" Su Zhiqiang shouted, walking up to Zhong Dabiao. With a thud, he knelt down. "Zhong... Patriarch Zhong, this man has nothing to do with the Su Family, please... please dont take it out on us!" "Brother, what are you saying!" Su Qingqing angrily questioned, "Ye Huan is helping us!" "Little sister, why are you still talking nonsense!" Su Zhiqiang shouted in a low voice, "If Patriarch Zhong misunderstands our relationship with him, Mom and Dad will face revenge from the Zhong Family!" "Ha ha!" Zhong Dabiao laughed, clapping his hands, then swung his palm. "Slap!!" The sound of the slap echoed in the air, and because of it, Su Zhiqiang spat out a mouthful of blood, his cheek swollen. "Zhiqiang!" "Brother!" The Su Da Hai couple, along with Su Qingqing, cried out urgently. "Coward!" Zhong Dabiao wiped his palm as if it was dirty, looking disdainful, "If you want me to spare the Su Family, its not impossible." "I see your little sister is quite good-looking, let my son and me enjoy her, a round of father-son bonding." "And then, let her have a kid for my Zhong Family, to improve our genes." "If thats the case, Ill let these two old folks in your family off, and forgive the two million you owe." As soon as the words fell, Su Zhiqiang closed his eyes, full of regret. Why did I borrow money from the Zhong Family! Why! In just two months, the five thousand borrowed had turned into two million! Now, the fate of his little sister and parents was likely to be dire! "Improve genes? With your genes, even a Celestial Immortal couldnt improve them, I suggest the Zhong Family stop their lineage to avoid polluting peoples eyes," Ye Huan sneered. Upon hearing this, Su Zhiqiangs expression became increasingly resentful. If it werent for Ye Huan hitting Zhong Dabiao, how would the Su Family be in such a predicament? He was strong, but what about the Zhong Family? Could he single-handedly fight the entire Zhong Family? Fight against the big shot from Celestial Sea, who had traveled a long way, and the twenty-odd War Generals under him? Impossible! He would be beaten within an inch of his life, and his family wouldnt escape this ordeal either! "Patriarch Zhong, I beg you..." Before Su Zhiqiang could finish speaking, Zhong Dabiao slapped him again. "I will not only kill him today but also give your Su Family members a good beating," Zhong Dabiao roared, waving his hand, "Get him!" The twenty or so burly men with wooden sticks behind him remained motionless. "What are you doing, get him!" Zhong Dabiao shouted loudly. The only response was the slap from the man in floral clothes at the front. "Slap!" Zhong Dabiao was stunned by the slap. "Ba... Ba Ye?" Zhong Dabiao shivered unexpectedly. Thats when he came to his senses. The hundreds of people behind him were not his right-hand men, but Ba Yes men, brought by his boss! Had he just commanded Ba Ye? Ba Ye was the most capable general under the legendary Tiger Brother of Celestial Sea, and he gave orders to him? Wasnt this just "borrowing tigers might"? Sar?h the novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. This was seeking death! Zhong Dabiao was filled with fear, with a face full of fawning he quickly apologized, "Ba Ye, please... lend a hand, teach this unknowing kid a lesson, and you can enjoy the woman first, what do you think?" "Kneel down." Ba Ye uttered the two words flatly. "Ha?" Zhong Dabiao was at a loss. Ba Ye grabbed a wooden stick from a nearby underling and swung it fiercely. "Swish!" The sound of the whip cracked through the air. Zhong Dabiao howled in pain and knelt on the ground. His kneecap was broken, and the intense pain contorted his features, "Ba... Ba Ye, what are you doing?" "Salute to Boss Ye!" Ba Ye shouted with full respect, then bowed ninety degrees to Ye Huan. "Salute to Boss Ye!!!" The burly men shouted nearly earth-shatteringly, all bowing uniformly into a ninety-degree angle. Compared to Zhong Dabiaos fat, this scene caused an even more powerful visual impact! The whole place was silent. Everyone was dumbfounded. Even the women villagers hiding in the dark and watching were wide-eyed with open mouths, not even realizing when the washboard in their hands fell to the ground. Boss Ye? Salute to Boss Ye? Could someone make Ba Ye bow ninety degrees so respectfully? Could this person be... Zhong Dabiao swallowed hard, voice trembling, "Ba Ye, could he possibly be Tiger... Tiger Brother?" "Slap!" Another slap, Ba Ye said coldly, "Even Tiger Brother must bow respectfully to Boss Ye." "Pfft!" Zhong Dabiao, in extreme shock, spat out a mouthful of old blood. A big brother on Celestial Seas pathTiger Brother, also must bow to this person? Someone more formidable than Tiger Brother? What kind of status was this! The consequences of offending him so badly just now... Zhong Dabiao couldnt imagine, his lips trembled, fear filling his eyes. Like him, Su Zhiqiangs mouth was open wide enough to fit a rock, his eyes bulging. Zhong Dabiaos boss, actually showed such respect towards... towards his little sisters boyfriend? How... how was this possible! Ba Ye cupped his fists, kneeled on one knee: "Boss Ye, Zhong Dabiao dared to disrespect you like this, how should we deal with him?" Chapter 70: Eliminate Everyone in the Zhong Family! Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Eliminate Everyone in the Zhong Family!How should we deal with this? Zhong Laobiao couldnt imagine it, his face turned ashen. Zhong Dabiao even fainted from dizziness. Standing there to let him hit, yet he didnt dare to hit? What a joke! He would hit even his own father without hesitation. The Zhong Family is done for!!! "No need to rush," Ye Huan lightly kicked Zhong Laobiao on the ground and said calmly, "You previously said Su Zhiqiang owed you two million, whats the story?" "This... this..." Zhong Laobiaos forehead was drenched in cold sweat, his throat moved with difficulty: "My... my son took him to the city to gamble... gambling, got him addicted to it, he lost... lost fifty thousand, so..." "So, from fifty thousand, with compound interest it became two million?" "Yes... yes..." "And your purpose?" "Purpose..." Zhong Laobiao swallowed and said, "My son... son inadvertently saw... saw Su Zhiqiangs VX friend, someone called... Xiaomei, very pretty, so then..." "So, your son developed lustful thoughts, took Su Zhiqiang to gamble, then made him owe an unpayable debt to coerce him, so as to get his sister? Isnt that right?" Sear?h the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Ye Huan squinted with a smile, causing a chill to rise from Zhong Laobiaos heart. "Deal with everyone in the Zhong Family!" Ye Huan snapped his fingers, a fierce look flashing in his eyes. The snap sounded crisp and clear. The sound wasnt loud, yet it was like a bolt from the blue, making Zhong Laobiao wet his pants, an unpleasant liquid flowing out. A few of Bahas subordinates immediately rushed up, punching and kicking Zhong Family father and son, then restrained their arms and dragged them straight down the concrete road. Zhong Laobiao was beaten beyond recognition, his already ugly features now twisted beyond human form. He cried heart-wrenchingly, filled with despair. Why did he act tough in front of such a person? Why! Why didnt he investigate thoroughly before taking action against him? Why! One wrong move, all moves lost! The mighty Zhong Family? In front of him, just an ant that can be easily crushed! ... Xiangyang Village, Su Family. The room was very dilapidated, the walls pitted, cobwebs filled the corners, under a flickering incandescent lamp, five people sat around the dining table. "Brother, whats going on, speak up!" Su Qingqing slammed her chopsticks on the table, her face full of anxiety. Not only her, but Su Dahai and his wife also looked anxious. Su Zhiqiangs character was very timid, always a follower of Zhong Dabiao since childhood, he was in awe of Zhong Dabiao to an extreme degree. But he never colluded with Zhong Dabiao, never took part in the atrocious deeds Zhong Dabiao did, he had a strong sense of right and wrong. Who would believe he would actively gamble or be instigated to gamble? "I... sigh!" Su Zhiqiang sighed, looking troubled, "Sister, you guys just dont ask, its all... its my fault." "The Zhong Family is already gone, what are you still afraid of?" Su Qingqing patted the table in frustration, making the dishes on the table tremble, the already old table creaking as if about to collapse. "Yes, theres..." Su Dahai and his wife glanced at Ye Huan, "Theres Xiao Ye here, you dont need to be afraid!" Su Zhiqiang continued eating with his head down, silent. "My dear brother-in-law, youre six feet tall, why are you so cowardly?" Ye Huan picked his teeth, crossed one leg over the other, "We men need to be responsible, to have courage, moreover, the Zhong Family is finished, you have nothing to fear." Ye Huans words hit the mark, making Su Zhiqiangs face more embarrassed, he bit his lip, not daring to speak. In truth, he still couldnt believe that the massive Zhong Family, the one that dominated Xiangyang Village, could be so easily brought down by the man his sister brought home. "Knock knock knock." The sound of knocking came, Ba Ye slowly pushed open the wooden door of the Su familys house, walking in with a group of subordinates, bowing respectfully: "Brother Ye, the Zhong Family has been dealt with." Ye Huan nodded, saying, "Not bad, on another note, Ive got to ask, the Zhong Family took people gambling in Celestial Sea, did they go to your venue?" "Yes." Ba Ye scratched his head awkwardly, "The Zhong Family would bring a group of people to play at the venue from as short as a month to as long as six months." "And him, have you seen him?" Ye Huan pointed to Su Zhiqiang. Ba Ye looked at Su Zhiqiang, thinking for a few seconds before nodding: "I remember him, he was always by Zhong Dabiaos side before, but last month he... he went up to the table too." Su Zhiqiang trembled all over. His lips quivered, and he spoke: "I... Ill say it." After saying that, he sighed deeply, looking very guilty: "Sister, Im sorry." "I also know I was deceiving myself, someone like Zhong Dabiao would never turn over a new leaf." "But... but I had no choice, I... I didnt want mom and dad to know how far Ive fallen, so I kept lying to myself, forcing myself to believe Zhong Dabiaos lies." "I went to the gambling table, voluntarily..." As soon as he said this, Su Dahai, his wife, and Su Qingqing all exclaimed: "Why!" "Because..." Su Zhiqiangs lips were filled with bitterness: "Because I needed money." "Three months ago, Zhong Dabiao and I went to Celestial Sea, and on the way, we met a girl walking, she was from the neighboring village." "The first time I saw her, I felt... a bit different, so I went to say hello..." "Thats when I found out she had a strange illness and was going to the city for tests, I felt sorry for her, so I took her to the hospital and accompanied her for tests." "The test results were... leukemia." "I... I dont know why, but I wanted to help her raise money, to... to cure her." "I borrowed money everywhere and barely gathered 150,000, but the base cost for surgery was 500,000, I had no choice, I went to Zhong Dabiao to borrow money." "But he beat me up, even stole my phone. He saw my sisters photo from my phone, then... developed lust, lent me 50,000 principal, then coaxed me to gamble..." "I couldnt borrow money already, had no other way, so I agreed." "Then those 50,000 were lost by me in two minutes, Zhong Dabiao promised, as long as I introduce my sister to him as a wife, he would reform, and forgive my huge debt, even more..." "Would raise 500,000 for me, to raise money for the girls surgery." After he said this, he closed his eyes, as if awaiting his fate. But the storm he envisioned didnt come. Su Dahai, his wife, and Su Qingqing all breathed a sigh of relief together. Su Qingqing flashed a cunning look in her eyes, speaking meaningfully: "Brother, I didnt expect you would reach this age." "Wh... what age..." "The age to fall in love!" Chapter 71 Love at First Sight? Chapter 71: Chapter 71 Love at First Sight?Su Zhiqiangs old face turned red: "Li...Little sis, what are you talking about!" "Whos talking nonsense?" Su Qingqing rolled her eyes and said, "This is called love at first sight. Besides, youre almost thirty; liking a girl is normal. Whats there to be shy about?" Su Zhiqiangs old face was burning, wishing he could find a hole to hide in. Ye Huan took out a bank card and slapped it on the table: "Little brother-in-law, theres 500,000 in the card. Take it and get that girl the surgery she needs." This bank card was given by Liu Tianyun to Huan when he was sent to buy a birthday gift for Liu Aimin. Su Zhiqiangs eyes lit up instantly. But he looked hesitant and didnt reach for it. Su Qingqing glanced at Ye Huan, then picked up the bank card and slapped it into Su Zhiqiangs hand: "Brother, just take this money. Its important to save a life!" "But, I..." Su Zhiqiang was extremely embarrassed. In the end, it was this man he most "looked down on" who gave him this crucial money. "No buts, leukemia is a serious illness. Hurry up and take the money to Celestial Sea." Su Qingqings eyes spun around twice, teasing, "Im still waiting for you to bring back a sister-in-law and give me a chubby nephew to play with." "Yeah, brother-in-law, saving a life is important. The longer leukemia drags on, the more risk it poses." Ye Huan took out a pen and paper and wrote a note, "Heres my number. If the surgery costs more, call me." At this moment, Ba Ye spoke up: "I just happen to be heading back to Celestial Sea, so I can give you a ride." "This... really... thank you all so much." Su Zhiqiang exclaimed excitedly, bowing three times to Ye Huan, then followed Ba Ye out. With their departure, an awkward atmosphere settled at the dining table. "Xiao Ye, this 500,000..." Having looked at each other, Su Dahai and his wife said, "We will pay you back as soon as possible." "Uncle, Auntie, what are you saying? You dont need to pay it back." "Yes, yes." Su Qingqing quickly chimed in, agreeing, "No need to pay back, not a cent!" Ye Huans face darkened, but he didnt say anything. "How could that be? This is 500,000!" Song Yanhong raised her eyebrows, secretly cursing Su Qingqing for being clueless. The fact that their son hadnt fallen from grace made them extremely happy and excited. But from various deeds, it was clear that the boyfriend their daughter found was no ordinary person and, in fact, had quite a background. Not to mention he was a handsome young man, which matched their daughter perfectly. 500,000 is not a small sum. If they dont repay it, wont it seem like the Su Family wants to ride on his coattails? This could leave a bad impression on this young man! Su Qingqing, naturally not foolish, could guess what her mother was thinking. But this 500,000 must not be repaid! This sly wolf not only took her first kiss but also saw her fully exposed and massaged her all over. Those are things money cant buy! Her eyes showed a threatening look as she turned to Ye Huan. Ye Huan, his face lined with black lines, still smiled and said, "Auntie, you really dont need to repay this money. Besides, men and women have the duty to help each others families." Hearing this, Song Yanhong and Su Dahai both showed satisfied smiles. Men and women have the duty to help each others families these words were just perfect. For a moment, both of them were genuinely pleased with Ye Huan and had erased the last bit of doubt from their hearts. Theyd heard those big shots in the city treated their women like clothes, changing them with no qualms. But saying something like that indicated this young man had the right values and probably wasnt a scumbag. "Xiao Ye, come on, eat more, eat more." Song Yanhong smiled while serving food to Ye Huan. "Okay." Ye Huan smiled awkwardly. Song Yanhong beamed, occasionally nodding heavily, giving him looks that seemed like an approving mother-in-law to a son-in-law the more she looked, the more satisfied she was! "Xiao Ye, its so late. Why dont you just stay overnight?" Song Yanhong suddenly suggested. "No way." Su Qingqing slammed the table and stood up: "Stay here, how could we?" "Why not? You havent stayed at home for a few years, have you? Every time you come, you leave the same day." Song Yanhong looked displeased. Su Qingqings eyes darted back and forth, saying, "Isnt there only the inner room now? That rooms for my brother!" Originally, aside from that room, the Su Family had a dark compartment where Su Zhiqiang used to live. After Su Qingqing started working in Celestial Sea, that compartment was converted into an animal pen for chickens, ducks, and geese, and Su Zhiqiang moved into Su Qingqings old room. "If theres only one room, then so be it. Ill change the bedding in a moment." "Then... what about him?" Su Qingqing pointed at Ye Huan. "Where will he sleep? You cant expect him to sleep in the car, right?" Song Yanhongs face turned ashen: "Letting your boyfriend sleep in the car? Can you even say that?" "Then... what do you mean!" As Su Qingqing asked, Ye Huans mouth curved upward, his face becoming exceptionally interesting... ... In the Su Familys inner room. Su Qingqing gnashed her teeth, her fist pounding on the headboard, making a "bang" sound. "Oh dear, oh dear." Ye Huan, towel in hand, drying his hair, smiled: "Minister Su, Uncle and Auntie are really enthusiastic." "Ye Huan, Im warning you." Su Qingqings eyes showed a threatening look as she swung around a pair of scissors, which reflected a chilling light. "If you dare get half a step closer to me, Ill cut you." She was utterly frustrated inside. When shed come, she had no intention of staying overnight at home. Shed certainly not anticipated having to spend the night in the same room with this jerk! She was tempted to storm into the outer room and yell: Mom, youre inviting a wolf into the house! But she was afraid of failing at the last step. If Song Yanhong knew they were just pretending, she would definitely step in person and arrange a blind date for her, and that would be frustrating! "Oh come on, youre being unreasonable! How can I get on the bed to sleep without coming near you?" "Oh, so you do want to come near me? I knew you had bad intentions!" Ye Huan, with a serious expression, said, "Minister Su, I have a wife, so please do not slander me, and do not insult my character. Thank you!" Furious, Su Qingqing clacked the scissors in the air twice: "You have character? More like a pigs character!" With that, she scooted to the far side of the bed and wrapped herself tightly in a quilt: "I warn you, Im sleeping on the inside. If you dare cross this line, remember, scissors are blind!" Sar?h the novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Minister Su, if you wont let me have any blanket, Ill catch a cold!" Ye Huan sat on the edge of the bed, looking quite serious. The only response he received was another "clack" sound. Chapter 72: A Huge Misunderstanding Chapter 72: Chapter 72: A Huge MisunderstandingYe Huans face was as dark as Bao Qingtian, but he still lay down on the bed and closed his eyes. Half an hour later, although Su Qingqing also closed her eyes, she had no intention of sleeping. Her heart was pounding like a little deer running around, "thump thump" nonstop. For the first time in twenty-five years, she found herself sharing a bed with a man, which made her feel very unsettled. At the same time, Su Qingqings wariness hadnt diminished; in fact, it was growing stronger. Men think with their lower halves, especially someone like Ye Huan, the jerk. If he suddenly made a move, shed be in trouble! Upon thinking this, Su Qingqing clutched the scissors under the quilt even tighter, slowly raising them before poking Ye Huans arm. Ye Huan turned his head but kept his eyes shut, breathing steadily as though asleep. Even a poke with scissors didnt wake him, so he must be asleep... Su Qingqing sighed in relief, though she didnt take her eyes off Ye Huan. Only then did she notice Ye Huans well-defined features; his proportions were perfect, his looks almost scoring full marks. His body was balanced, the muscles under his clothes firm and strong. Calling him a "pretty boy" wouldnt be an exaggeration. "Hes... actually kind of handsome..." Su Qingqing blushed, even reaching out a hand, wanting to touch Brother Huans abs... At this moment, Ye Huan turned over again. Su Qingqing snapped back, dropping the scissors, her face so red it could drip blood! She turned her head, burying it in the quilt. Su Qingqing covered her burning cheeks, filled with shame and anger. What just happened? How could she do such a thing? Su Qingqing, your behavior would have gotten you dunked in a pig cage in ancient times! An hour later, overwhelmed by sleepiness, she finally fell asleep. The moment she fell asleep, Brother Huan opened his eyes. He had been pretending to sleep, preparing to fend off Su Qingqings "sudden attack." He tossed the scissors far away before genuinely falling asleep. If he didnt throw them far, if this woman suddenly went crazy in the middle of the night and snipped him, hed lose big time! ... The next day, at dawn, a faint streak of pale white appeared on the eastern horizon, accompanied by the crowing of roosters. Su Qingqing stretched, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and slowly woke up. Su Qingqing blushed, wiping the drool from the corner of her mouth. She felt that this sleep was incredibly restful, filled with a sense of security. She even had a sweet dream: In the dream, she was in a garden blooming with colorful flowers, playing and laughing with a great bear with eight-pack abs. Recalling what happened in the dream, Su Qingqings cheeks got even hotter, and she shook her head in embarrassment. How could a bear have abs? Am I going crazy! At this point, with a "creak," the door opened. Song Yanhong poked her head in, blushed, and quickly retreated. "Dont look if its inappropriate! Dont look if its inappropriate!" Song Yanhong repeated these words, trying to calm herself. Right, her daughter is all grown up and even has a boyfriend. She should knock before entering a room... But judging by this, the days of holding a grandchild might not be far away... At the same time, Su Qingqing looked at the closed door, puzzled. Why did Mom leave just as she came in? Strange! "Minister Su, could you... come down here?" The sudden voice startled Su Qingqing. Her gaze slowly shifted to beneath her... Beneath her... "Ah!!!" Su Qingqing let out a thunderous scream, flaring up in anger. She picked up the scissors on the floor, shouting, "Beast, how do you want to die!" "Damn!" Ye Huan exclaimed, dodging a stab, then grabbed Su Qingqings wrist, "Su Qingqing, how can you be so unreasonable!" "Unreasonable? Whos being unreasonable? Im going to stab you to death today!" Su Qingqing was furious, her certain prominent feature shaking with rage. "What did I do? Dont slander me, Im warning you!" Sar?h the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Slander? You did that to me and still want to act innocent?" Su Qingqing struggled wildly, "Let me go, let me stab you once, or Im not letting this go!" "You want to stab me and want me to let go? Isnt that unreasonable? And besides..." Ye Huan pretended to be angry, "Last night while I was asleep, you suddenly hugged me, wouldnt let go no matter how I pushed you. Thats one thing, but later on, you, crazy woman, wouldnt stop groping my abs, and insisted on horseback riding. Now that youre awake, you want to stab me? So youre saying being a rogue makes you right?" "Youre still arguing..." Su Qingqing gritted her teeth, then froze. Hugging? Groping abs? Horseback riding? Wasnt that what happened in her dream? In the dream, the big bear did try to shake her off, but she insisted on clinging to it, not letting go, and even rode the bear. And groping abs... that did happen in the dream... "How do you know what dream I had!" Su Qingqing shouted in anger, "If you have the guts, let me go and let me stab you, you rogue." "First, I dont know what dream you had about me. Second, youre the rogue. Last night, you crossed the line in the bed!" As he spoke, Su Qingqing froze again. Indeed, when she just woke up, she was sitting on Ye Huans abs, and it was on the right side of the bed, the side closer to the ground. Her "territory" should have been on the left side, the inner side of the bed. So, it was she who was "playing rogue," not him? "Minister Su, it seems youve finally figured it out." Ye Huan sneered. "I... I..." Su Qingqings eyes darted around, ashamed and angry, "I get it, just... let me go first!" "Promise not to act up." "I wont act up!" "Really?" "Really!" Su Qingqing was fuming with embarrassment. Ye Huan held her wrists, pinning her to the bed, making her unable to move. Then, with quick reflexes, he snatched the scissors from Su Qingqings hand, quickly got up, and moved away from her. "What a jerk." Su Qingqing gritted her teeth, originally wanting to give Ye Huans most vulnerable part a kick, but now she had no chance. Ye Huan opened the window, threw the "weapon" outside, then said seriously, "Minister Su, given your rogue behavior last night, I reserve the right to hold you legally accountable." "I... Im sorry!" Su Qingqing felt at fault, apologizing once more. Ye Huans brows knitted, he said coldly, "If apologies were useful, why would we need the police!" Su Qingqing was stunned. She didnt expect Ye Huan to be so unforgiving. She was furious, such a beautiful woman like her, which man wouldnt want her to "play rogue" on them? This was typical of Ye Huan getting an advantage and playing coy! Besides, she had never bowed her head and apologized to anyone before, this was the first time. Su Qingqings face turned ashen, her voice low, "So what do you want?" "What do I want?" "Its simple!" "Recall that dream you had yesterday and tell it to me in full so I can give some feedback!" Chapter 73: Prank Chapter 73: Chapter 73: PrankThe dream last night was something Su Qingqing couldnt even bring herself to recall, let alone let Ye Huan comment on it. After giving Ye Huan a furious glare, she left the room first. "Qingqing, why are you coming out in pajamas? No sense of image!" Song Yanhong criticized. "Ill change later, were at home anyway." Su Qingqing waved it off, "Mom, is breakfast ready?" Sar?h the N?vel?ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Its been ready for a while. Your dads already eaten and gone to the fields to work, just waiting for you two lovebirds." Song Yanhong moved the bamboo cover aside, and the fragrance immediately wafted out. She had a meaningful expression: "Must be exhausted, hurry and eat to replenish your strength." "Yeah, totally worn out." Su Qingqing nodded, truly exhausted after giving Ye Huan a beating. She grabbed a bun and stuffed it in her mouth, completely oblivious to the "ambiguity" in Song Yanhongs words. Suddenly, her gaze fixated on the soup pot on the table. But just as she reached out, Song Yanhong stopped her, "This isnt made for you." "Not for me? Then this soup was specially made for that jerk?" Su Qingqing raised an eyebrow, beginning to wonder if she was even her mothers biological daughter. The two clearly werent communicating on the same wavelength. Song Yanhong sighed. Ye really doesnt know how to cherish a woman, making her precious daughter so tired shes complaining hes a jerk, its truly a sin! But thats fine, at least their married life certainly wont be disharmonious. With that thought, her tone softened a lot, "I made this soup for Ye, you cant have it." "Why not?" Su Qingqing folded her arms, her pretty face showing nothing but defiance. Song Yanhong rolled her eyes, "Its for your own good." "If its for my own good, then why cant I drink it?" "Why do you care so much, its for your own good!" "You..." Su Qingqing was fuming, and suddenly pointed outside, "The big yellow dog at the village entrance!" "Big Yellows here so early?" Song Yanhong smiled and looked outside, but saw no sign of the dog, she asked puzzledly, "Wheres Big Yellow?" "Clang." Su Qingqing was dumbfounded as the pot lid in her hand fell onto the table. This sound turned Song Yanhongs face ashen, and she turned around. "This girl turned the world upside down, dares to lie to her mom?" Song Yanhong scolded, quickly putting the lid back on. "This... this..." Su Qingqing pointed at the soup pot, hesitating to speak. Growing up in the countryside, she naturally knew the effects of the herbs in that soup pot. The effect was to strengthen the kidneys! For her own good? For her own good, making such a soup for Ye Huan? Only then did Su Qingqing realize what Song Yanhong meant by "tired," almost fainting from embarrassment! They misunderstood! "The effect of the medicine is almost gone, go call your man over, really clueless!" "Mom, you misunderstood..." "Misunderstood what? Youre not fooling me?" Song Yanhong pretended to be angry, "Dare to fool your mom now, your wings are quite strong." With that, Ye Huan came out of the room. Immediately, Song Yanhong beamed, "Ye, youre up, must be exhausted, breakfast is ready, come and eat." Su Qingqings face was ashen, almost spitting an old mouthful of blood. When she was little, her mom said she was found in a garbage heap, she used to doubt it, now shes starting to believe it! "Auntie, getting up early to cook for us, thank you so much." "See, Ye is much more sensible than you, girl!" Song Yanhong looked at Su Qingqing unhappily, then turned her gaze back to Ye Huan, face instantly changing with a smile, "Ye, try this soup, I especially made it to replenish your body." Ye Huan opened the soup pot. As someone knowledgeable in traditional Chinese medicine, he immediately recognized the purpose of the herbal soup. Based on the soup, he guessed that Song Yanhong had surely misunderstood after witnessing something in the room earlier. Ye Huans lips curled into a mischievous smile. "Auntie, could this soup be..." "Thats right." Song Yanhong nodded with deep meaning, "This is an old village remedy, guaranteed to restore your energy in half an hour and improve your body." "So miraculous!" Ye Huan exclaimed, then smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Auntie. Without this soup, who knows when I might recover. Qingqing is really too wild." Too wild? This remark stunned both Su Qingqing and Song Yanhong. "What nonsense are you spouting!" Su Qingqing slapped the table and stood up, glaring at Ye Huan. Her stance looked like she was ready to fight Huange. But to Song Yanhong, it seemed nothing but a case of being angry out of embarrassment. "What are you doing, be quiet!" Song Yanhong scolded, pushing Su Qingqing back into her chair. "Im sorry, Auntie, it was a slip of the tongue, my fault." Ye Huan showed an apologetic face but glanced at Su Qingqing with pride. This almost made Su Qingqings lungs explode with anger. She wanted to skin Ye Huan alive. Song Yanhong had a harsh tone because she felt a bit embarrassed. Shes a traditional and reserved woman. How did her daughter turn out like this? Its a failure of family education! As a woman, she wasnt reserved at all! Being unreserved to the point of being mocked as too wild by her boyfriend? This... truly is a sin! Song Yanhongs face turned red, wanting to find a hole to put Su Qingqing in! ... After breakfast. "Youre leaving right after breakfast, not staying a little longer?" Song Yanhong said, looking regretful. "Were leaving, we have to go to work today." Su Qingqing gritted her teeth, shoving Ye Huan into the passenger seat, and gave a smile to Song Yanhong. "Treat Ye well, dont bully him. Such a good man, youll regret it if you lose him!" "Him?" Su Qingqing laughed out of anger. "What tone, if I find out you bullied him, youd better watch out." Song Yanhongs words were a clear warning. But she didnt know, the more she said this, the more dangerous Ye Huans situation would be later! "Mom, dont worry, I think Ill treathim well." Su Qingqing deliberately emphasized the words "treat well," with a deep meaning. "Also..." Song Yanhong glanced around, then whispered in Su Qingqings ear, "As a young girl, its better to be a bit more reserved about these things, people have been saying you... anyway, just be careful..." Su Qingqings face instantly turned red, her heart full of anger, but she kept silent. At this point, any explanation would seem pointless and would only make things worse, completely useless! "Bang!" She shut the car door and got into the drivers seat. Su Qingqing started the car, chuckling coldly. In the passenger seat, Ye Huan silently rolled down the window, waved, and smiled, "Goodbye, Auntie, well come see you next time." "Alright, Ill definitely cook you a big feast next time!" Song Yanhong waved with a smile, bidding farewell. "Sure, sure." Ye Huan replied with a grin. Su Qingqing gritted her teeth, cursing his cunning, but her hand obediently dropped below, hiding the scissors she picked up from below the door window, the "weapon." Chapter 74: Erecting a Memorial Arch for You? Chapter 74: Chapter 74: Erecting a Memorial Arch for You?The car drove out of Xiangyang Village, and Su Qingqings lips curled into a dangerous arc. She let out a cold laugh and said, "Choose a way to die?" "Minister Su, lets talk it over!" Ye Huan looked sincere. "I promise, if you dont hold this against me, Ill completely forget what happened last night!" "Oh? Really?" Su Qingqing raised her eyebrows and asked meaningfully. The moment Huan nodded, the sound of wind breaking "whoosh" came through. Ye Huan gritted his teeth and gripped Su Qingqings wrist, resisting the "attack" of the weapon. "Watch the car!" Ye Huan gritted his teeth. Due to the muddy road and Su Qingqings battle with Huan, the car shook as if it were in danger of overturning at any moment. "And the car? You made my mom mistake me for that kind of loose woman... loose..." Su Qingqing was embarrassed to finish, feeling extremely angry: "Im going down with you!" Her grip tightened, and she was full of anger. Ye Huan stood firm like a mountain, unmoved no matter how much strength she used. What the hell; why is he so strong! Su Qingqing, frustrated, used all her might until her face turned red, yet she still couldnt push the scissors even half an inch. Just then, the phone rang. "Ring ring ring." Ye Huan, his left hand still clenching Su Qingqings wrist, took out the phone from his pocket with his right hand and breathed a sigh of relief, showing the screen to Su Qingqing: "Look, whose call is it?" "My brother?" Su Qingqing frowned. "Ill let go of you now. Dont mess around, or itll be bad if something happens to your brother." "Let go quickly!" Su Qingqing snorted coldly. Ye Huan cautiously released her wrist, relieved when she showed no intention to attack again. Looking at her reddened and slightly painful wrist, Su Qingqing shook it off, gritting her teeth again. This jerk has no sense of tenderness; he used so much force! Its a good thing Huan couldnt hear her thoughts, or hed surely spit out blood! If the little master hadnt used force, hed be the eunuch by now! sea??h th Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Hello, brother-in-law, whats up?" "Is there actually such a thing?" "Hmm, well head over now, wait for us." ... Celestial Sea City, Peoples Hospital entrance. "You damn peasant, dont dirty my sight, make way quickly!" "Look in the mirror and see what you look like; youre hardly fit to talk to me!" "Im giving you three minutes to leave immediately. Otherwise, Ill have someone teach you a lesson!" The man in a business suit pointed arrogantly at the patchwork-clad Su Zhiqiang and cursed loudly. If Ye Huan were here again, he would surely recognize the suited man as Zhao Yongle, the leader of the third sales team of Tianyun International. The woman next to Zhao Yongle also looked mocking. "Su Zhiqiang, you better leave. I cant possibly be with you." "This gentleman is handsome and rich, and you? At best, youre just a farmer." "Im grateful you paid for the surgery, but its better if you leave quickly. I cant stop this gentleman from dealing with you if you dont." The woman, Zhang Ruya, had the appearance and posture to rival a second-tier actress, but her rustic aura clashed with her luxurious dress. With a "click," the lighter flickered to life with a blue flame. Zhao Yongle lit a cigarette, exhaled a smoke ring, drew five bills from his purse, and threw them at Su Zhiqiang: "Im taking Ruya for a big night out now, heres five hundred bucks. Go buy two boxes of protection; the change is your tip." As he finished, he pulled Zhang Ruya into his arms. Zhang Ruya went along, placing her hands on Zhao Yongles chest with a seductive smile: "Master Zhao, hurry and send him to buy it, I can hardly wait." "Alright, alright, Im eager too, haha!" Zhao Yongle wickedly squeezed Zhang Ruyas fragrant shoulder, making her giggle incessantly. Taking out ten more red bills, Zhao Yongle tossed them onto Su Zhiqiangs face: "A thousand bucks; two boxes only cost a hundred. Plus the five hundred on the ground, thats fourteen hundred in tips, about your monthly income as a farmer, right? Hurry and get it!" The bills slapped him in the face, and Su Zhiqiang was filled with resentment. Zhang Ruyas words made his heart feel ice-cold and extremely aggrieved. But he couldnt care about his emotions. The fifty thousand was most important. Su Zhiqiang begged earnestly: "I want nothing else; since youre with him now, can you return the fifty thousand? That money was borrowed..." "Money given is like water spilled, dont you know that?" Zhang Ruya sneered. "Besides, you voluntarily paid for the surgery; I didnt ask for it." "You..." Su Zhiqiang was furious. If it were a small amount, he might let it go. But it was fifty thousand, and it was borrowed from his brother-in-law! Zhao Yongle blew a smoke ring in Su Zhiqiangs face and said with a smile: "Kid, isnt it frustrating? Fifty thousand for a girls surgery, hoping to woo her, only for the guy to take her right after. Frustrating, right? Ha ha!" Zhang Ruya quickly chimed in: "Master Zhao, I dont want to be wooed by him; can he even qualify? Honestly, hes just delusional, let alone..." She blushed shyly: "Its my first time, cant possibly be with him..." "Ha ha, this needs personal verification by me, doesnt it?" Zhao Yongles heart was filled with joy, and he unintentionally curled his lips into a sarcastic smile. His health had been poor lately, spending money at clubs like water, so he came to the hospital for a check-up and happened upon this "village girl." Although this village girls aura was lacking, she was indeed quite attractive, bound to be thrilling! For this, he spent three thousand on a fancy dress at a second-hand shop, claiming it cost thirty thousand to gift to the village girl, successfully winning her over. Spending only three thousand on a dress left others fifty thousand wasted. On top of that, he could openly mock the farmer who spent the fifty thousand, utterly delightful, haha! Moreover, the best part is that shes still pure, an unexpected joy! Thinking about it, he grew impatient, took out a wad of cash, and flung it in Su Zhiqiangs face: "Quickly, dont buy protection, go get some medicine!" "You..." Su Zhiqiangs fists clenched tightly, tears glistening in his eyes. Seeing Zhang Ruya nestled against this "gentleman," his heart felt indescribably aggrieved, indescribably angry. "Thud." With gritted teeth, Su Zhiqiang fell to his knees, saying, "Please, return the fifty thousand; I really need that money." Zhang Ruya showed impatience and directly stamped Su Zhiqiangs head with her high heel, sneering: "You gave that fifty thousand voluntarily; I didnt ask for it. Why should I return it? Youre just looking to spend fifty thousand to marry me into your village, to farm together for life." Pointing to her face, she said: "Dont you see my posture? Even second-tier stars arent as good looking as me; can you a farmer match me? Ridiculous! Even if your family burned incense for ten generations, you still cant reach a woman like me! Only..." She snuggled into Zhao Yongles arms again, coquettishly saying: "Only someone like Master Zhao can match my looks and qualify to have me." As she spoke, Su Zhiqiangs face turned even more ashen. Seeing his defeated face, Zhao Yongle smugly pocketed his hands. Even those recent annoyances had all vanished! Just then, a voice from the street-side BMW returned all those annoyances to him. "Wow, youre badass, lady." "Should I notify China Rail and China Construction to bid jointly and erect a monument for you?" Chapter 75: Send me a fleet of 2 Rolls-Royce Phantoms! Chapter 75: Chapter 75: Send me a fleet of 2 Rolls-Royce Phantoms!Zhao Yongle and the woman looked towards the source of the sound and angrily cursed in unison. "Ye Huan, youre really persistent, like a haunting spirit!" "Why is there another troublemaker, dirtying the eyes of my Zhao? Can you take responsibility for it? And still cursing at me? Be careful or Zhao will finish you off!" Ye Huan glanced at Zhang Ruya and pinched his chin. Zhang Ruya showed disgust, took several steps back and cursed: "What are you looking at? Do you have the right to admire my beauty?" "Your beauty? What kind of beauty do you have?" An unexpected female voice suddenly emerged, causing Zhang Ruya to glare with rage. During her stay at the hospital, she had truly attracted many hungry wolves eyes; those doctors were all infatuated with her. And now someone actually mocked her for lacking beauty? And its a woman? Fuming with anger, Zhang Ruya turned her head around. Upon seeing the woman walking towards them, she subconsciously swallowed her words. The womans beauty... Indeed, far surpasses hers. Su Qingqing walked over and helped Su Zhiqiang up. "Minister Su, why are you helping this filthy farmer? Dont dirty your hands..." Before Zhao Yongle could finish speaking, Su Qingqings next words jolted him fiercely. "Brother, are you okay?" Su Qingqing brushed the dust off Su Zhiqiangs pants, her face full of concern. "No... no problem, its just me being useless." Su Zhiqiang gritted his teeth, lowered his head, and clenched his fists. Brother? Zhao Yongles face changed slightly. This farmer is actually Su Qingqings brother? sea??h th n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Their temperaments are simply not on the same level! Zhao Yongle couldnt quite believe it and questioned, "Minister Su, is this man your brother? Isnt that a lie?" "Get lost." Su Qingqing coldly spat out the word, causing Zhao Yongle to gnashed his teeth again. On the side, Zhang Ruya glared with fury and cursed: "Wheres this wild woman from, daring to scold Zhao? Do you dare?" Su Qingqing raised her palm. "Smack!" Zhang Ruya covered her burning cheek and screamed hysterically: "You dare hit me? Do you know whose woman I am!" "Im Zhaos woman, and you actually dare to hit me?" "Zhao only needs moving a finger to finish you off!" "Just because youre beautiful doesnt mean youre extraordinary, youre just a vixen!" "Is being a vixen remarkable? Let me tell you, you and your brother are the same, youll be farmers from the lower class all your lives!" She cursed non-stop, Zhao Yongles face turned anxious, and he hurriedly covered her mouth. Zhang Ruya was still mumbling curses, clearly not willing to stop. Su Qingqings face was dark enough to drip water, her eyes almost spewing fire. Since birth, she had never been insulted like this. She wished to go up and tear this womans mouth apart. "Stop cursing," Zhao Yongle was sweating coldly on his forehead, and he sternly whispered to Zhang Ruya so only the two of them could hear. What kind of international joke is this? Su Qingqing is his direct superior! If she gets angry, he would definitely not be just fired, but his days would be bad! "Why..." Zhang Ruya looked dissatisfied. But seeing Zhao Yongles increasingly dark face, she stopped talking. "I say..." Ye Huan said earnestly, "I heard youre from the village next to Xiangyang Village? According to logic, youre also a farmer, your parents are farmers too, so why are you cursing yourself?" Zhang Ruya crossed her arms, looking disdainful: "My parents are my parents; I am me! Theyre farmers all their lives; Im different. I will become a noble lady that they cant reach!" "Clap. Clap. Clap." Ye Huan clapped and laughed, "You really know how to handle this filial thing, huh? I wonder if your parents will regret having you when they hear what you said." "Although it doesnt concern me, I want to remind you of one thing..." "You could have entered the noble family, but you no longer have that opportunity." "Heh." Zhang Ruya sneered, pointing at Su Zhiqiang, "Are you saying hes a noble familys young master?" "Hes not a noble familys young master..." Ye Huan patted his chest, smiled, and said, "He is the brother-in-law of a noble familys young master, being connected counts as noble too." Zhang Ruya was stunned for a moment, and then coldly laughed, "Youre saying youre the noble familys young master?" "Thats right, so youve really lost out." "Hahaha!" As if hearing the funniest joke ever, Zhang Ruya laughed so much she sat down, kept pounding the ground, tears flying. Zhao Yongle looked at Ye Huan, also showing ridicule, laughing lightly. Noble familys young master? Hes not a nobles young master himself; this security team leader, what makes him a noble familys young master? Ye Huan took out his phone, dialed a number: "Send me two Rolls-Royce Phantom motorcades, to the City First Peoples Hospital, assemble within half an hour." Upon hearing this, Zhao Yongle also began laughing. Zhang Ruya laughed even more as she rolled on the ground. She laughed loudly, already attracting many onlookers. Among them, some people also laughed. Dressing like this and claiming to be a noble familys young master? They looked at Zhao Yongle and couldnt help but admire: Look at him, wearing that little suit, having this aura, thats the real young master of a noble family! Zhao Yongle wiped his laugh tears, gave a thumbs up, and said: "Ye Huan, you... youre really impressive, haha!" He sneered: "Rolls-Royce Phantom motorcades? Do you know the value of this car, one costs twenty million, can you gather two motorcades, worth two billion luxurious cars here? Youre impressive, haha!" Zhang Ruya stopped laughing, looked at Su Zhiqiang, out of breath, "Su Zhiqiang, this guy must have escaped from the mental hospital in your village, right? Hurry up, call and let a doctor take him back, otherwise, itll be too late soon, haha!" Su Zhiqiangs eyes were full of disappointment and sighed. Initially, he had a glimmer of hope in his heart, but now its completely gone. This woman is a thorough gold digger, disgusting! He patted Ye Huan on the shoulder and said, "Little... Little Ye, lets go. That fifty thousand, I will... pay it back to you." "Why leave?" Ye Huan held a toothpick, his expression indifferent, "The motorcade coming to pick us up hasnt arrived yet." "This..." Su Zhiqiangs face was embarrassed. Motorcade? He heard Zhao Yongles words, too. Rolls-Royce Phantom, is the highest-end luxury car valued at twenty million each, sending two motorcades is not realistic! Su Qingqing evidently thought of this as well. If they stay here any longer, theyll lose face completely. Might as well have this ungrateful wretch cough up the fifty thousand, resolve this matter and be done. She looked at Zhang Ruya and said coldly, "I dont want to talk to you more, give back fifty thousand." "Why take the money back? I am a noble familys young master, lacking this fifty thousand? This little money, just consider it as patronage for her!" Chapter 76: No Need for Formalities! Chapter 76: Chapter 76: No Need for Formalities!Ye Huan said indifferently. "Charity? Id rather throw money into the water than give it to such a gold-digger!" Su Qingqing was furious: "I know my brother has feelings for her, and I understand this was consensual." "My brother went to great lengths to help her gather surgery fees, and he even got tricked by Zhong Dabiao into gambling. Yes, he did all of this willingly, without her instigation." "But as a normal person, shouldnt she at least be grateful? If she looks down on my brother, couldnt she simply refuse? Why did she have to insult him?" "Shes nothing but an ungrateful wretch!" As she cursed more, Su Qingqings anger grew, her eyes wide with fury, wishing she could slap Zhang Ruya to death. "Dare insult me, Ill fight you..." Zhang Ruya lunged at Su Qingqing, ready to start a brawl, but was held back by Zhao Yongle. "Young Master Zhao, let me go, I want to kill her!" Zhang Ruya cursed hysterically, her anger was boiling. It was hard enough to cling to a young master, and yet she still had to bear insults from another woman? What kind of logic is this! "Young Master Zhao? It seems I need to remind you." Ye Huan smirked, "Zhao Yongle? Group leader of third sales team, sales department of Tianyun International, in simple terms, just a blue-collar. And this woman you cursed? Shes the sales department minister of Tianyun International, his superior." "Youre lying!" Zhang Ruya didnt hesitate, cursing in anger, "Thats your shallowness; Young Master Zhao is the heir of a hidden wealthy family, working at Tianyun International just for life experience!" Then she looked at Zhao Yongle, "Young Master Zhao, isnt that right?" Zhao Yongle smiled sheepishly and nodded. Of course he was lying, but to get this woman into bed, he decided to keep up the charade. "Did you hear that? Young Master Zhaos noble identity is beyond your imagination." Zhang Ruya raised her head like a proud rooster, "Your presence here only pollutes the air around Young Master Zhao, bad luck!" "How about we make a bet?" Ye Huan suddenly proposed, with a playful expression. "A bet?" Zhang Ruya was momentarily stunned, and asked in confusion, "Bet on what?" "Bet that you will regret," Ye Huan snapped his fingers, "Bet that youll regret giving up on Su Zhiqiang for Zhao Yongle." "What a joke!" Zhang Ruya put her hands on her hips and flicked her jet-black hair, "Regret? Impossible! I, Zhang Ruya, am Zhao Yongles in life and death, as for that farmer Su Zhiqiang..." She wore an unabashedly mocking expression, "Im a woman he could never have in this lifetime." Su Zhiqiang lowered his head, his face filled with frustration, his fists clenched tightly, nails digging into his flesh. Even so, he dared not speak out. Seeing him like this, Su Qingqing was filled with disappointment and anger. Originally, she was hoping for her brother to get married, so she could have nieces and nephews, who knew this half a million would be wasted on an ungrateful wretch! "Young Master Zhao, lets ignore these people, and find a hotel..." Zhang Ruya blinked coquettishly, finger to her lips, exhibiting her charm. "Alright... alright, no need to care about these lower-class people..." Zhao Yongle swallowed his saliva, chuckled mischievously, and then left holding Zhang Ruyas shoulder. In fact, he was curious to see Ye Huans embarrassed look when no convoy arrived. But he couldnt wait; he wanted to fully capture Zhang Ruya first. The two left, leaning on each other. Suddenly, a thunderous honking mixed with engine roars echoed from the horizon. Ten Rolls-Royce Phantoms, in two convoys, neatly arranged, escorting the central Rolls-RoyceBlack Gold Throne, crossed through the crossroads. Wherever they went, even risking traffic violations, other vehicles spontaneously gave way. Traffic violations were minor; if these luxury cars were scratched, it could mean bankruptcy. Many drivers opened their car doors and stepped out, watching the magnificent scene. Two Rolls-Royce Phantom convoys going out together? Such a scene was rarely seen! Zhao Yongle was dumbfounded, his mouth wide enough to fit a stone. "Wha... what is happening?" Zhang Ruyas voice trembled slightly. Even though she wasnt familiar with the appearance of a Rolls-Royce Phantom, the outstanding quality of these vehicles was apparent! They turned their heads. "Gulp." Both swallowed hard, eyes filled with disbelief. Two convoys, a total of eleven top luxury cars, stopped right in the middle of the road in front of the First Peoples Hospital. The car doors simultaneously swung open, and a tall, middle-aged man in a tailcoat stepped down from the Rolls-RoyceBlack Gold Throne. At the same time, twenty suited men wearing sunglasses stepped out, their shoes pressing onto the ground. They were all the strongest bodyguards from the Liu Family estate, bowing in unison facing the hospital gates. "Greetings to Young Master Ye!" Their voices were powerful, shaking the hearts of the onlookers. Ye Huan, chewing on a toothpick, waved his hand, "At ease!" Upon his command, the bodyguards straightened up, standing tall. Butler Zhou Yuanan retrieved a gold-rimmed red carpet from the Black Gold Thrones trunk, handing it to the head of security. Starting from Ye Huans feet, the head of security unfurled the red carpet straight to the Black Gold Thrones car door. "Young Master Ye, please!" The Liu Familys butler, Zhou Yuanan, gestured with a welcome hand. "Brother-in-law, lets go home!" Ye Huan waved his hand with a smile. Su Zhiqiang stood there, dumbfounded. He looked at the dozens of luxury cars, completely bewildered. Not only him, those who despised Ye Huan in their hearts among the crowd were equally shocked. Could it possibly be true... This man indeed, with just a phone call, gathered two Rolls-Royce Phantom convoys within half an hour! Just who is he? To note, even the major families of Celestial Sea City, might only have one such luxury car in total! Yet here were eleven? What in the world is happening! Ye Huan patted Su Qingqing on the shoulder. Seeing no reaction from her, his face darkened. Brother Huan lowered his hand, and then slapped her on the waist. S~ea??h the N??elFir.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. This snapped Su Qingqing back to her senses, her eyes widening, "Who dares touch my waist, courting death?" Looking at the array of luxury cars, she drew a sharp breath. "Quick, get your brother into the car, or dont you want to slap that ungrateful wretchs face?" Ye Huan whispered angrily. Su Qingqing quickly nodded. She couldnt figure out what was happening, but she grabbed Su Zhiqiangs arm and, on the red carpet, walked toward the 35-million-yuan Rolls-RoyceBlack Gold Throne. Ye Huan, with a toothpick in his mouth, hands in pockets, gave a playful glance to the side. He glanced at Zhang Ruya and Zhao Yongle, both still frozen in shock. Chapter 77: He Really is a Wealthy Young Master! Chapter 77: Chapter 77: He Really is a Wealthy Young Master!Accompanied by another round of engine roars, the Rolls-Royce convoy drove away from the middle of the road and went straight ahead. Watching the convoy leave, Zhang Ruya felt as if she had swallowed a fly, feeling extremely uncomfortable. She subconsciously stepped back a few paces, looking utterly incredulous. That man she had mocked was actually a true heir of a wealthy family? Su Zhiqiang, that farmer, was really the brother-in-law of a wealthy heir! Two Rolls-Royce convoys, thats a whole two hundred million! Zhang Ruya was filled with regret, realizing just what she had missed, the best opportunity to soar to success! If she had secured Su Zhiqiang, with his weak demeanor and affection for her, she could have him firmly in her control. In that case, she would have endless wealth to squander! No need to spend all her efforts trying to please Zhao Yongle, as if walking on thin ice? What a loss! Zhang Ruya was utterly regretful. But fortunately, pleasing Zhao Yongle could still help her ascend to success, even if it meant just peacocking around! She turned to look at Zhao Yongle, feeling a jolt in her heart. "No... no way, how could he possibly..." Zhao Yongle mumbled to himself, full of disbelief, his lips trembled. Ten cars, a full ten Rolls-Royce Phantoms! Ye Huan had just made a call to get them over in less than half an hour! What is going on here! Young Master Ye? He... He truly is a wealthy heir! A hidden identity, entering Tianyun International as a wealthy heir! "Its over, its over..." Zhao Yongles eyes widened, slowly filled with a hint of fear, growing scared. Countless confrontations with Ye Huan made him extremely afraid that Ye Huan would retaliate against him later! His reaction was all observed by Zhang Ruya. Zhang Ruya showed a deep look of suspicion. Logically, as the young master of a hidden wealthy family, Zhao Yongle shouldnt have been so shocked by the sight of the two Rolls-Royce Phantom convoys! His reaction now, what is going on... Just then, a middle-aged man wearing a suit walked over. Approaching, he looked carefully at Zhao Yongle, then spoke: "Yongle, what are you doing here?" Zhang Ruya turned around and found the middle-aged man somewhat resembled Zhao Yongle; coupled with him directly calling out "Young Master Zhao," the unusual relationship between the two was apparent? "This... this is Uncle Zhao, I presume. Hello, sir." Zhang Ruya greeted with a smile. "And you are?" Zhao Zhenhai frowned. "I am...Im Young Master Yongles girlfriend." Zhang Ruya smiled. "Girlfriend? My nephew is really not picky anymore, even picking up a village girl." Zhao Zhenhai sneered. Zhang Ruyas face turned extremely awkward, having no choice but to smile weakly. Zhao Zhenhai snorted coldly, patting Zhao Yongle on the shoulder. Zhao Yongle flinched, coming back to his senses, exclaiming: "Uncle?" "Skipping work? The company is unstable recently. If Su Qingqing makes things difficult for you, I cant help you." Zhao Zhenhai expressed displeasure. Zhao Yongle nodded: "I... I know, Ill go back now." "Young Master... Young Master Zhao?" Zhang Ruya probed: "Young Master Zhao, arent you the young master of a hidden wealthy family? Why are you afraid of that girl farmer making things difficult for you?" Zhao Yongles expression subtly changed. Just now, he was startled by Ye Huans identity, and for a moment forgot about the beauty lying beside him. If his identity were exposed, hed be utterly embarrassed! "Hidden wealthy family?" Zhao Zhenhais gaze turned sharp, "Zhao Yongle, what nonsense have you been talking?" "I... I..." Zhao Yongles eyes darts around, wishing to find a hole to crawl into. But at this point, he couldnt care less. This village girl was obviously inexperienced, might as well throw ten thousand at it, bring her to a hotel and have a taste! Zhao Yongle gritted his teeth, took out a bank card, and turned around: "Ruya, I deceived you, but I really like you..." He said, handing over the bank card: "As an apology, Ill give you ten thousand, please forgive me!" "Slap." Zhang Ruya didnt hesitate, leaving a blood-red slap mark on his face. If she hadnt seen those two Rolls-Royce convoys, she might have forgiven Zhao Yongle for ten thousand and even gone to the hotel. But now it was different! Two hundred million! For a fake young master, she gave up the chance to climb the social ladder! Fury surged through her, and she raised her hand once more, slapped Zhao Yongle, and left resolutely. "You village girl dare hit me? Ill kill you..." Zhao Yongle cursed in a rage. He raised his hand but felt Zhao Zhenhais unfriendly gaze, reluctantly suppressing his anger. ... Zhang Ruya walked quickly down the street, face full of regret. She knew she had bet wrong! Completely and utterly lost the gamble! Just like Master Ye said, she regretted it, totally and utterly regretted it! Regret for abandoning Su Zhiqiang for Zhao Yongle! The "young master" in her eyes turned out to be a facade, and the real wealthy familys eldest brother-in-law she had given up! Such a loss! A huge loss! Zhang Ruya gritted her teeth in anger. A sudden thought made her halt in her steps. She took a mirror from Zhao Yongles bag, checked her appearance. I can still become a phoenix. Zhang Ruyas lips curled into an extremely sinister smile... ... Eleven luxury cars were parked below the apartment building. "Safe travels, Young Master Ye!" The men in black bowed in unison. "Okay, you guys can head back now." Ye Huan said, biting a toothpick, gesturing them away, then followed Su Qingqing and her brother upstairs. "Ye Huan, be honest, what exactly is your identity?" Closing the door, Su Qingqing questioned with a threatening tone. "What identity? The Liu familys prince consort. My wife is Liu Tianyun, the eldest daughter of the Liu family. Bringing a few cars from her family is easy, isnt it?" Ye Huan plopped onto the sofa, crossing his legs: "Just now the man in the tailcoat was Zhou Yuanan, the butler of the Liu family estate, and my call was to have him send over the convoy." "Is that so?" Su Qingqing expressed doubt but chose to believe Ye Huans explanation. Su Zhiqiangs face turned grim: "You have a wife, then with my sister..." "Fake." Ye Huan replied: "I was just hired by your sister as a shield. I have no thoughts towards her, though she might have some inappropriate ones towards me..." Before Yegelin could finish, Su Qingqing furiously interjected: "Wishful thinking! How could I have any designs on you as a shield?" Ye Huans face turned dark. This shield was not something I begged to be, okay! Had it not been for her scissors held against me, would I wade into this murky water? Is that something to do out of boredom!

But he could only think these, not say them aloud, otherwise, this crazy woman surely wouldnt let it go. "Fake?" Su Zhiqiangs brows knotted tightly. "Yes, fake!" The two replied in unison. Su Zhiqiang sighed, saying: "Then Master... Master Ye, the fifty thousand you gave, I will earn and repay you as soon as possible..." "No need to repay." "No need?" Su Qingqings words left Su Zhiqiang perplexed again. The two are a fake couple, why isnt the money to be repaid? "Dont worry about it. No matter how much money, even a billion, you dont have to repay him!" Su Qingqing stated firmly. Ive not only been seen by Ye Huan but also given a massage. Thats something money cannot buy! But she didnt say it aloud as it was too indecent. Chapter 78: Wasting Words Chapter 78: Chapter 78: Wasting WordsBecause it was too late, Ye Huan didnt return to Penglai Lakefront and chose to stay in the guest room at Su Qingqings house instead. The next day, in the living room. "Crack." Su Qingqing suddenly squeezed her right hand, and a boiled egg exploded in her palm. "Sis, you..." Su Zhiqiangs face showed an awkward expression. "Ding." The clock on the wall had its hour hand stopped just past 8. Eight oclock sharp. There was still one hour until the start of work at Tianyun International! "That bastard, why isnt he up yet?" Su Qingqing looked a bit annoyed. She had gotten up early at six thirty to prepare breakfast, and to avoid losing face in front of Ye Huan, she had pulled out all the stops, using all her best skills... But what came out was still a mess of black slop... So, in her frustration, she rushed downstairs and bought twenty yuan worth of breakfast to pass off as her own. Yet, Ye Huan from Huaxia was ungrateful, not even getting up by eight, which meant even if her breakfast was great, he wouldnt appreciate it? The two matters combined, making Su Qingqing even more furious... "No, I have to go teach him a lesson!" Outraged and embarrassed, Su Qingqing grabbed a kitchen knife and kicked open the guest room door, quickly closing it behind her. Rushing into the room, her expression changed and she said speechlessly, "Ye Huan, youre awake but not getting up, do you know what time it is?" Ye Huan had a serious look on his face: "I was waiting." "Waiting?" Su Qingqing was stunned for a moment, showing doubt on her face, "What are you waiting for?" "I was waiting for you to yell at me... woke me up." Ye Huan remained indifferent, his gaze "steady." "..." Su Qingqing froze in place. Then, a blush crept across her face, and she swung the kitchen knife at Ye Huan: "Ill show you! Go to hell." "Whoa, are you trying to kill someone!" Ye Huan quickly jumped up, dodging one strike and dived into the corner of the room. Su Qingqing gritted her teeth, aiming the kitchen knife at Ye Huan, "If you have the guts, dont run!" "Not run? If I didnt run, Id have to be crazy!" Ye Huan grumbled, "Besides, whats wrong with waking me up? After all, Im a guest..." "You... you shut up!" Su Qingqing wasnt concerned about being woken up. It was the ambiguous term Ye Huan used! The meaning was too loaded! Her face was red enough to drip blood, and she chased Ye Huan around with the knife. "I got it, Deputy Su, did you misunderstand or twist my words?" "You... youre full of it!" Su Qingqing became increasingly furious: "My thoughts are pure, much purer than yours!" Sarch* The Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Then why are you swinging a knife at me? Isnt that because youre embarrassed and angry?" "Im not, Im just venting at the air, who wants to hit you anyway?" "This kitchen knife is obviously aimed at me, do you think Im blind?" "Vain and self-centered!" Suppressing her anger, Su Qingqing spat, "Swinging at you is just to wake you up, so you can get alert sooner. I did come here to wake you up, theres only an hour left before work, hurry up." "Well, Ive been woken, you can go now." Ye Huan said with a smile. "You..." Su Qingqing was extremely livid, swinging angrily at the air a couple of times, then stomped her feet twice and left the room in a huff. Although she really wanted to teach Ye Huan a lesson, actually striking would mean admitting she had impure thoughts, or misunderstood? "Bang." Listening to the door closing, Ye Huans mouth curved into a smile. Youre still too green to challenge me! Actually, Ye Huan hadnt woken up before. He just sensed a strong aura of "murderous intent" and snapped awake. If not for his years working in the Dark World, he would have been long gone! No wonder the old men in the village say women are the most dangerous creatures, they werent lying! ... "Vroom vroom." Hearing the rumble of a car engine from the apartment downstairs, and watching the BMW 7 Series disappear in the distance through the window, Ye Huan was speechless. Wasnt the plan to wait for me? Why run off now! After washing up, Ye Huan grabbed two buns from the table, stuffed them into his mouth, and left the apartment building. "Hey, hey, young man." Just as he got downstairs, a womans voice called out to Ye Huan. A woman in floral clothes approached leading a chubby young man. The young man appeared to be about thirty-five, with barely any hair left on his head. As he walked, the fat on his face jiggled, and he constantly stuffed potato chips into his mouth, the crunching sound crisp, while half, because of his chewing, would fall to the ground. "Auntie, whats up?" "Oh oh oh, Im asking for directions." The woman took out a slip of paper, smilingly inquired, "Young man, do you know how to get to this place?" "Tianyun International?" Seeing the location written on the paper, Ye Huan nodded: "Im heading there to work, why not come with me?" The woman and the young man exchanged glances, their faces lighting up with joy. She shook Ye Huans hand twice, with a big smile: "Young man, youre not only good-looking but also kind-hearted, thank you so much." "Its nothing, really." "Not only good-looking and kind-hearted, but also young and promising. Tianyun International is such a well-known company in Celestial Sea. Working there, you have a brilliant future ahead, truly people cant be judged by appearance!" The womans eyes flashed with cleverness, "Young man, do you have a partner?" Listening to such praises, Ye Huan almost gave her a thumbs up. You dont find many with such insight! Just that phrase people cant be judged by appearance felt a bit off. Doesnt young master have an imperial aura? Do I still need an inner character? However, thats not important! Ye Huan smacked his lips: "Im married." The womans face first showed regret, then she earnestly advised: "Young man, with your excellence, dont let a single small tree cost you the entire forest." Saying this, she put down the sack she was holding and pulled out a photo, hinting, "Young man, this is my daughter. Her looks dont lose to those supermodels. If you could win her over..." The next moment, a taxi pulled over by the side of the road, and she froze. "Young man, whats this?" The womans face changed slightly. "Get in the car, Ill pay for the ride." "Huh? Youre not driving your own car?" "As a security team leader, I only make 6000 yuan a month. How could I afford a car? Taking a taxi is much more economical." Ye Huan chuckled, taking the front passenger seat. The woman quickly hid the photo behind her, her face turning extremely sour. She thought she snagged a "poor-looking" guy who owns a car and property and is rich, only to find out this man works at Tianyun International but is just a mere security guard, what a disappointment! Wasted so much saliva. The chubby young man next to her didnt look pleased either. Chapter 79: Your brother is still just a 35-year-old child! Chapter 79: Chapter 79: Your brother is still just a 35-year-old child!"Auntie, no need to thank me." After paying the fare and getting out of the car, Ye Huan waved his hand, then whistling cheerfully, he headed towards the Security Department Heads office. The woman and the young man cast a disdainful glance before entering the elevator. A lousy security guard, expecting us to thank you? Its just a few dozen yuan for the taxi fare, do you really think its that precious? Who cant afford a taxi these days? Who do you think youre looking down on? At the same time, Ye Huan arrived at the security office door. Seeing Ye Huan arrive, Wang Tiezhu breathed a sigh of relief, "Captain, Minister Su Qingqing is waiting for you inside." "Shes waiting for me?" Ye Huan looked puzzled but still patted Wang Tiezhu on the shoulder: "Im promoting you to deputy captain today." "Huh?" Wang Tiezhu was stunned for a moment, scratching his head sheepishly: "Captain, isnt this inappropriate? I havent done anything noteworthy..." "Last time, not hanging out with Brother Tiger and his group was already your greatest achievement. Besides, in the security team, apart from me, youre the most qualified, so stop declining and work hard!" "This..." Wang Tiezhu looked pleased but hesitated for a moment. A few seconds later, he stood up straight: "Captain, I promise to work hard and not embarrass our security team!" "Good, young man, you certainly have great prospects ahead!" Ye Huan gave a thumbs up, saying meaningfully: "Future tasks of the security team might be entirely in your hands, youre the rising star of our team!" Saying that, Brother Huan turned the doorknob and entered the office. A snarky voice immediately rang out. "You can make not doing anything sound so noble, that is a skill in itself." Su Qingqing crossed her arms and snorted coldly. "Mind your own business." Ye Huan said, flopping onto the sofa and crossing his legs, "What are you here for?" Su Qingqing: "My brother has joined Tianyun International, assigned to your security team." This made Ye Huan surprised. Seeing Ye Huans expression, Su Zhiqiang, standing aside, spoke up: "Young Master Ye, I wanted to stay in the big city to train myself a bit, so I had my little sister pull some strings, thats how I joined Tianyun Internationals security team." "Thats just perfect, apart from me, the loner, theres only that little chubby guy left in the security department." Because last time, not only did more than a dozen security guards fail to stop Brother Tigers group from causing trouble, but they also participated, and they were all dismissed by the HR department, leaving many positions severely vacant. Ye Huan thought for a moment and said: "Im planning to promote that little chubby guy to deputy captain, your brother can temporarily sit on duty in the company lobby, how about that?" Sear?h the ovelFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "I have no problem." Su Zhiqiang said seriously, "Young Master Ye, just because you know my little sister, dont give me an easy job. I want to train myself." Last night, after pondering for a long time, he finally understood. Being timid is the most undesirable trait, he must change it! If he can become confident and strong, and have a stable career, wouldnt girls naturally be attracted to him? Ye Huan laughed: "Dont worry, Im someone who separates work from personal matters, and being a lobby security guard is the most challenging position for courage and insight, it will greatly train you." "Okay." Su Zhiqiang nodded enthusiastically and agreed. "I agree too." After a brief chat, Su Qingqing left the security office. Ye Huan then had Wang Tiezhu take Su Zhiqiang to the reception to get his badge and uniform, and to go to the shift assignment post. Just as Brother Huan was about to use the computer to pass the time, after just pressing the power button... Brother Huans face turned dark. "Ring, ring, ring." The phone started ringing. "Ye Huan, come up to handle something." ... "Just because theres no money, no house, your brother is still single and cant get a wife." "Youre doing well, working at such a big company, earning so much every month, you dont send money home, dont help your parents, dont help your brother." "If we hadnt asked around everywhere, we wouldnt even know your contact details or work location." "Youre so cold-blooded, are you even human!" A rural woman in floral clothes, accompanied by a chubby young man with a few strands of hair on his head, stood in front of the sales team threes office space. The rural woman, Zhou Cuihua, pointed at Zhang Huimin and began a tirade, spit flying everywhere. Her voice couldnt be described as anything but loud, attracting the attention of all the employees in the sales department. Su Qingqings face turned sullen: "Auntie, its working hours, please dont disturb our work!" Zhou Cuihua placed her hands on her hips and shouted: "You do your work, Ill discipline my daughter, whats the problem!" "Enough!" Zhang Huimins face turned extremely unpleasant, full of anger: "Can you not make a scene here, if you want to cause a scene, wait until I get off work!" "What do you mean making a scene? What do you mean?!" Zhou Cuihua erupted: "Sure, youre doing well now, making money, but why are you so unfilial, not even caring if the family lives or dies?!" "When have I not cared? I send 1,000 yuan back every month!" "You know its only 1,000 yuan?" Zhou Cuihua sneered: "1,000 yuan, for a year thats just 12,000, whats the point." "Exactly." Zhang Dagou munched noisily, continuously stuffing chips into his mouth: "Sis, in todays society, getting married in the countryside requires 300,000 in bride price and a small villa, totaling about 600,000, without that, theres no way to get a bride. You send only 12,000 a year, not even enough for my snacks!" The crispy crunch of the chips mixed with his loud chewing noise made it quite unpleasant. Zhang Huimins eyes showed a hint of disgust, she said coldly: "Cant you earn it yourself?" Zhang Dagou frowned slightly, replied indifferently: "Sis, what are you saying? I am the only son in the family, and youre asking me to earn money? How outrageous, after being in Celestial Sea for over five years, your wings have really grown, havent they!" Zhou Cuihua was extremely angry: "Your brother is just a 35-year-old child, and you are so cold-blooded, so heartless, expecting him to work and earn money?" Zhang Huimin pressed her throbbing forehead, completely defeated. The reason she didnt tell her family about her work address was to prevent situations like this. She knew her family well. Just like that time when they knocked her out to pay off Zhang Dagous debt and sent her off to marry that scumbag in Celestial Sea, it showed there was nothing they wouldnt do. But now is not the time for a confrontation, and the company is not the place for it! Zhang Huimin forced herself to calm her tone and said: "Mom, its work time now, please go back first, okay? Ill talk to you after work!" Zhou Cuihua looked indifferent, her voice cold: "No, unless you take out 600,000 today, Ill not leave, no matter what." "Ive investigated you, your salary is between 30,000 and over 10,000 every month." "Youve been in Celestial Sea for more than five years now, 600,000 is just about three years of your salary, using three years of your hard work to get your brother a wife, why not?" Chapter 80: This Money, Cannot Be Given! Chapter 80: Chapter 80: This Money, Cannot Be Given!Zhang Huimins face turned anxious: "Six hundred thousand? Where am I supposed to get you six hundred thousand from?" "You all know my situation after marrying into Celestial Sea!" "I send you a thousand yuan every month, and ninety percent of the rest goes to pay off debts. The debts Im paying off, to put it plainly, are for my brother. Dont you know that?" At these words, Zhang Dagou and Zhou Cuihua averted their eyes twice. The family knocked Zhang Huimin out and sent her to that gang leader to help Zhang Dagou pay off a thirty hundred thousand debt. But who knew, the leader got hit by a car on his wedding night, leaving behind a thirty hundred thousand debt. This thirty hundred thousand was naturally repaid by Zhang Huimin. However, these mother and son duo seemed quite shameless, as just half a minute later, they returned to normal. Zhou Cuihuas face was indifferent, and she said coldly, "I only care about that six hundred thousand, the rest I dont care about. I gave you such a good face and figure, and you cant even think of a way to make money off of that?" With a sorrowful face, Zhang Huimin said, "Do you mean you want me to sell my body for money? Are you really my biological mother?" "I dont care how you get the money." "Even if you sell yourself, thats none of my business, Im just telling you one thing: I just want the money." "A married daughter is like water spilled out of the bowl; havent you heard of that saying?" "Besides, with your figure, even if you dont sell yourself, finding some rich elder to be your sugar daddy should be a piece of cake, right?" As Zhou Cuihua said these words, her face remained unchanged. At this moment, Zhang Dagou casually tossed the nearly empty potato chip bag on the ground, wiped his mouth, and said, "Mom, still thinking about finding a rich elder? With her husband-killing luck? What rich elder would dare have her?" "Oh, right, right!" Zhou Cuihua sneered, "Killed her husband on her wedding night and became a widow. What kind of woman is this? No wealthy old man would dare want her." "You guys..." Zhang Huimins face grew extremely ugly. "Us what? Give us the money, six hundred thousand." Sarch* The N?velFire.nt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "If you dont give it, well just stay here and wont leave." Zhou Cuihua reached out her hand, having an air of being completely unreasonable. Nodding nearby, Su Qingqing couldnt stand it any longer, speaking with a steely face: "This is Tianyun International, not your home, you cant just squat here as you please!" As a woman, she understood how painful it must be for Zhang Huimin. Being born into such an extremely patriarchal family was truly the pinnacle of misery. She spoke in a low voice: "You have greatly disrupted the work order of our company. Im giving you three minutes to leave Tianyun International. Otherwise, when security comes, well have to force you out!" "Fine, I see how it is." "Youre teaming up with my unfilial daughter to bully me and my son, arent you?" Zhou Cuihua pointed at Su Qingqing, her eyes wide with anger: "Go ahead, take strong actions if youre capable. I... Ill sue you all." "Go ahead and file a report!" Su Qingqing wasnt backing down at all, her eyes cold, "Three minutes, get out of here!" "Alright, your company is big, I cant provoke you. But cant I expose you?" "Is there any justice left, any rule of law?" Zhou Cuihua took out the latest iPhone 13, opened the camera, and started recording everywhere, screaming hysterically: "Everyone, take a look! Everyone, look! Is there still justice, law and order?" "Tianyun International, such a big company, is actually trying to kick out a woman in her sixties and my precious 35-year-old son. Is there any justice left?" "My unfilial daughter, making loads of money, is still unwilling to buy a house and a car for her 35-year-old brother to get married. She even wants to team up with others to kick me out." "This is sinful, sinful!" "If it wasnt for me giving birth to her, how could she enjoy such a good life, with such a great brother?" "But shes ungrateful; despite having such a great brother, she doesnt treasure him. Shes unwilling to give money to help him marry, even when it would be perfectly reasonable!" "As a sister, she should pay for her brothers bride price, house, and car!" "Isnt that a matter of course?" Zhou Cuihua ranted hysterically, while Zhang Huimins face grew angrier. Willing to spend over ten thousand on the newest iPhone 13 but not willing to save her own money to get a wife for her son? At this point. "What a matter of course!" Ye Huan clapped as he walked out of the elevator, "This is the first time Ive seen someone so shameless, its really broadened my horizons!" "Xiao Ye?" Zhang Huimins face changed slightly, and her eyes flickered twice before she bit her lip and lowered her head. Seeing her own mother and brother making a scene, Ye Huan couldnt suppress the irritation and wished to drive away this mother and son pair directly! "Who are you calling shameless!" Zhou Cuihua, enraged, swung her hand towards Ye Huans face. Her wrist was easily restrained by Zhang Huimin. Zhou Cuihua struggled twice, released her wrist, and said angrily, "You unfilial daughter, youre actually siding with outsiders, do you want to die?" "Dont make a scene, wait for me downstairs after work, this six hundred thousand..." Zhang Huimin took a deep breath and said angrily, "I will find a way to help you come up with it, just stop making a scene here." "Thats better..." Zhou Cuihua looked satisfied. Ye Huan abruptly interrupted, looking displeased, "Give them six hundred thousand? Zhang Jie, where would you get that kind of money? Besides, giving them that money is no different than throwing it down the drain!" "Our familys business is none of your concern." Zhou Cuihua scolded, "Just because you gave us a ride in a cab, dont think youre all that. Youre just a security guard, know your place!" "Of course, I know my place." Ye Huan held a toothpick in his mouth, "Since youre clear on it too, then you should know what my duty is, please?" "Please what?" "Do I have to spell it out? Take your precious 35-year-old man-child and get out of Tianyun International!" "How dare you call my son a man-child? How bold of you." Zhou Cuihuas eyes seemed to spit fire, "Since my son was born, I have never scolded him, and you, a stinking security guard, dare to?" "Exactly!" Zhang Dagous face turned extremely dark, and he said coldly: "Kid, do you know who my brother-in-laws brother is? How dare you insult me? I give you three minutes to kneel down and apologize, or Ill make sure you have nowhere to buried!" Listening to the two of them hurling insults at Ye Huan, Zhang Huimin was burning with anger. If looks could kill, this mother-son duo would have died ten thousand times over. Ever since this family knocked her out and sent her to Celestial Sea, she completely lost affection for them. That thousand yuan per month was sent over simply because she couldnt bear it and thought that the family should live a little better. She saw clearly from the start: she was born to bear the task of "making money for her brother to use"! This endless task! "The six hundred thousand, I will find a way. Now, get out!" Zhang Huimin pointed at the elevator, her face icy to the extreme. "Unfilial daughter, how dare you speak to your mother like that? Really, what an attitude." Zhou Cuihua raised her eyebrows and cursed again, but a satisfied look crept onto her face. The purpose of this trip was to get the six hundred thousand. If they could squeeze the money out of Zhang Huimin, nothing else mattered! At this moment, Ye Huan spoke again. "I disagree." "Even if they burned the six hundred thousand or threw it into a filthy ditch, they shouldnt give it to them." Chapter 81: Oh, why are you two speechless? Chapter 81: Chapter 81: Oh, why are you two speechless?"What right do you have to refuse? My daughter gives me money, why do you get to interfere!" Zhou Cuihua cursed loudly. Suddenly, she seemed to have an epiphany, and nodded with a meaningful look: "Could it be that you have some special relationship with my daughter?" As soon as she said this, a blush spread across Zhang Huimins face. Su Qingqing slightly furrowed her elegant eyebrows, and seeing her flushed face, she understood that something was not usual between her and Ye Huan. She raised her dark eyebrows. Ye Huan, having a wife, was still involved with another woman? Truly a total scoundrel. Zhou Cuihua naturally noticed Zhang Huimins reaction, directly grabbed her ear, looking heartbroken: "You foolish woman. This guy is just a lousy security guard, how could you get involved with him? Even if youve got a jinx on husbands, even if youre a widow, you shouldnt have fallen for him." "Enough!" Zhang Huimin fiercely broke free, showing disgust, "This is the last time Ill scrape together..." "No scraping, no money!" "You this security guard, do you want to cause trouble!" Zhou Cuihuas features twisted, "Fine, you dont want my daughter to pay? If youre so capable, bring out sixty thousand, otherwise, what nonsense are you blabbering about." Ye Huan remained silent, his expression calm as he took out his phone. "Prepare one million cash for me, deliver it to the sales department." From the other end of the line, there was the sound of a table being slapped, Liu Tianyun frowned: "Ye Huan, Ive told you, dont use a commanding tone with me." Before she could finish. "We can negotiate the shares." As soon as he said this, there was a "beep" from the other end of the line, indicating the call had been hung up. "Celestial Sea Bank? This is Liu Tianyun, deliver one million cash to Tianyun Internationals sales department, into the hands of a man named Ye Huan." ... "One million?" "Just you, a goddamn security guard?" "Can produce one million?" "Hahaha!" Zhou Cuihua and Zhang Dagou pointed at Ye Huan, laughing uproariously. Not only were the laughs piercing, Zhang Dagous body fat quivered incessantly due to laughter, as if creating ripples in the air. Onlooking sales department employees also showed mocking expressions, chuckling lightly. Ye Huan had previously stayed in the third sales group for two days, and on his first day managed to complete SSS+S level Hell sales tasks, but even so, the commission wouldnt exceed thirty thousand. Plus, now that hes demoted to security team captain, earning only six thousand a month, how could he possibly have a hundred thousand on hand? Its simply impossible. Zhang Huimin didnt believe Ye Huan could have a million either. She sighed, speaking in a voice only he could hear, "Little Ye, thank you for speaking up for me, but I can still gather this sixty thousand myself..." The next moment, her face suddenly flushed red. Ye Huan held Zhang Huimins jade-like hand tightly, smiling: "Dont worry, Sister Zhang, I can come up with this money, but I wont give them a single cent." "What a joke!" "If you can come up with a million in cash, Ill jump from here on the spot!" Zhang Dagou raised his head high, sneering: "You this dog security guard, actually dreaming of joining high society? A million, do you even know what that means? A security guard like you should be happy with ten thousand!" "Exactly!" "If you can come up with this money, Ill approve of you being with my daughter!" Zhou Cuihua echoed. Then, she turned to Zhang Huimin: "Zhang Huimin, when are you giving the sixty thousand, give me a definite answer." "I..." Zhang Huimin was about to say as soon as possible. But her hand was held by Ye Huan, and she bowed her head, saying nothing more. Even though she hadnt experienced a real marriage, she was mature enough nearing thirty. Not listening to a man might make him unhappy... Sar?h the Novl?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. If it made him unhappy... Thinking of this made Zhang Huimin uncomfortable, so she chose to keep her head down. She didnt want Ye Huan to be unhappy because of her. Off to the side, Zhou Cuihuas mouth curved in a mocking arc, saying meaningfully: "Zhang Huimin, are you hanging around this man, hoping to be a jinx to his death...?" As soon as she said it, Zhang Huimin promptly withdrew her hand. Yes, she had the fate of being a husband jinx, so how could she be so selfish as to want to harm Ye Huan... She grit her teeth, suppressing her aggrieved emotions, yet her eyes uncontrollably misted. "I have no intention of talking more nonsense!" Zhou Cuihuas face turned nonchalant: "As I said, this time, as long as you give me sixty thousand, I promise I wont ask you for a penny more. And you, stop sending that hypocritical thousand a month; well sever the mother-daughter relationship..." "Mr. Ye, your one million cash is here!" A sudden voice from the stairwell made Zhou Cuihua and Zhang Dagou shudder fiercely. A woman with a "Manager" badge on her chest led four women with safe boxes in hand, running up from the stairs. All five were propping hands on their knees, panting heavily. "Excuse... Excuse me, who... Who is Mr. Ye?" The manager forcibly halted her breathing, but her face was still flushed. Since Liu Tianyun was among the top ten black gold VIP customers of Celestial Sea Bank, even for a "small amount" like a million cash, the bank didnt dare slack, sending the lobby manager to deliver personally. There was no wasting time either. They raced into the first-floor lobby, found the elevator still on the top floor, and chose to run up the stairs through the fire exit. "Thats me." Ye Huan said calmly. The manager waved her hand. The four tellers kneeled down neatly and courteously, laying the safe boxes on the ground, then opened them. As they opened, it seemed like countless "golden lights" shined out. Zhou Cuihua and Zhang Dagous eyes gleamed, focusing hard on those safe boxes while subconsciously gulping. "Mr. Ye, if we have delayed your time, or arrived late, we sincerely apologize." The manager and the four tellers all bowed in unison. "No worries, youre not late." Ye Huan said nonchalantly, casually taking a wad of cash from the safe box, and slapped Zhang Dagous face: "Alright, my million has arrived." "Now, you can prepare yourself, find out how jumping from here feels comfortable." Zhang Dagou jolted back to his senses. His gaze flickered, his face became extremely awkward. Simultaneously, his face showed intense disbelief. This lousy security guard, really conjured up a million! And summoned a million with just a phone call! Who wouldve thought? Zhou Cuihua was also stunned. Her face was full of disbelief, her throat struggled to swallow, as her lips began to tremble. One million! A full million! And he just summoned it like that? How on earth is this possible!! "Wow, are you two really that shocked?" Chapter 82: True Money Spender! Chapter 82: Chapter 82: True Money Spender!Ye Huan once again held the stack of cash in his hand and patted it on Zhou Cuihuas face, his lips curling up, "Want it?" "I want... I want..." Zhou Cuihua instinctively nodded her head. The next second, she shuddered. When she came to her senses, even though her face was as thick as a city wall, she couldnt help but blush. But this much money, if she could get her hands on it... Her family would definitely become the wealthiest in the village, and by then, not only would they not worry about her son getting a wife, they might even consider marrying several! Although she couldnt understand who this security guard was, let alone how he could procure a million in cash with just one phone call. But none of that mattered now, this money had to be secured! Zhou Cuihua swallowed her saliva, and with a thick skin, said, "Little... Little Ye, youre really generous, Ill accept this money..." Saying this, she suddenly dropped to the ground, her hand suddenly reaching for the safe. "Click." Before her hand could reach the cash, four clerks calmly closed the safe, blocking her access to the money. The smile on Zhou Cuihuas face instantly froze, her eyes widened in anger, "What are you doing, this is my money!" Ye Huan crouched down, resting one knee on the ground, looking at her with a half-smile, "Your money? Who said this money was yours?" "I..." Zhou Cuihuas eyes flickered twice as she spoke, "Little Ye, I... I agreed to let you be with Huimin, but... but, Huimin is my daughter after all, and you havent paid the bridal money yet, have you?" "Oh? But I remember you just said you didnt have such a daughter, didnt you?" Ye Huans lips curled up, "Youve said this, and youre still asking for bridal money?" "Little Ye, that was just a test for the two of you!" Zhou Cuihua blinked and said, "I just wanted to see if, as my daughters boyfriend, you would stand up for her. Now I can rest assured..." "Is that really so?" "Of course!" Zhou Cuihua smiled slyly and said, "As the saying goes, even a tiger wouldnt eat its cubs; how could I possibly be so bad to my own daughter?" "Auntie, I trust you." Ye Huan gave a thumbs up, speaking meaningfully, "After all, unless one has a heart more venomous than snakes and scorpions, or unless one is utterly reprehensible and beyond redemption, they would never be so cruel to their own daughter, wouldnt you agree?" Receiving such insults, Zhou Cuihua was furious, but for the money, she held back her anger and nodded. Suddenly, she remembered that Ye Huan could summon a million in cash with a single phone call, even having the bank manager deliver it personally. This indicated that his actual wealth was far more substantial. If she could draw even more blood from him... Thinking of this, she spoke again: "Little Ye." "Youre handsome and rich, and I wholeheartedly support you being with my Huimin!" "However, my Huimin isnt an ordinary girl from a normal family; just look at her appearance, her grace..." "The sixty thousand mentioned earlier surely isnt enough as a dowry." "How about this? If youre truly sincere about being with her, for the dowry, just provide a hundred thousand in cash, plus a house anywhere in Celestial Sea, and a car worth eighty-eight thousand!" "If you do this, Ill approve of your relationship!" Zhou Cuihua said with a beaming smile. Beside her, Zhang Huimins face turned livid once again, her eyes blazing with fury. She had almost believed some of Zhou Cuihuas words just now. But now, she recalled the old sayinga dog cant stop eating shit! Zhou Cuihua said those words just to extort more money from Ye Huan! She tugged at Ye Huans sleeve, "Little Ye, dont agree to her demands!" Zhang Dago wasnt happy, he said, "Zhang Huimin, cant you show some lady-like virtue? When a man speaks, you should shut up..." As he spoke, a sudden slap resounded through the floor. Zhang Dago spat out a mouthful of bloody froth and fell to the ground, wailing continually. Zhou Cuihua was about to get angry... Ye Huan retracted his hand, lifted a safe, and with the cash inside aimed at Zhou Cuihuas gaze, his lips curling up, "Is this what you want?" "Uh-huh... uh-huh..." Zhou Cuihua gritted her teeth and nodded. Sar?h the n?vel_Fire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "I said before, even if I threw the money into the water, I wouldnt give it to you." "Its just that unfortunately, the conditions here dont allow for that, so Ill have to do it another way." Ye Huan let out a cold laugh, holding the safe, walked to the window, and opened it. The next moment, a shocking scene unfolded. Ye Huan held the base of the safe with one hand, then suddenly pushed it outwards. Only one word could describe this actionscatter money! Pure, unadulterated scatter money! Scattered lots of money! "Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh." The wind howled. Thousands of red bills were whisked away by the wind, scattering in the air all around. Pedestrians on the street saw patches of shadow appearing on the ground, and immediately thought it was about to rain. But when they looked closely. It indeed was "raining"! It was raining money! For a moment, the pedestrians swarmed, scrambling for it. "No!!!" Coming back to their senses, Zhang Dago and Zhou Cuihua rushed towards the window, reaching out their hands to grab some bills. But they couldnt catch a single one! Zhou Cuihuas face was ashen, feeling as if her heart was bleeding... "How dare you throw away my money!!!!" Zhou Cuihua grabbed Ye Huan by the collar, her gaze as if she wanted to kill him. "When did this money become yours?" Ye Huan asked with a look of contempt. Zhou Cuihua gritted her teeth, her eyes swirling, and she rushed towards the other three safes on the ground. "Oh, so now youre snatching money?" Ye Huans figure disappeared instantly, stepping on the safe, "I said, not a single cent will go to you." "Please, I beg you, give me money!" Zhou Cuihua pleaded, "My precious son is already thirty-five, if he doesnt marry soon, therell be no one to carry on the family name!" "Whether he continues the family line or not, what does that have to do with me?" Ye Huans face was expressionless. "You..." Zhang Dago was extremely angry. But at this point, its still all about the money! Money is the most crucial! With money, he could pay back that sum... Zhang Dago suppressed his anger, and with a "thud," he knelt in front of Zhang Huimin, his face full of plea, "Little sister, please, let this gentleman give us the money!" "As long as we get the money, Mom, Dad, and I will surely support the two of you being together!" Zhang Huimin had completely seen the hateful nature of this mother and son, she walked off to the side with a look of disgust, turning her head away. Zhang Dago was filled with rage. As the only male in the family, he grew up with a silver spoon, bossing around his younger sister. Now that he had knelt before her, pleading, and she dared to treat him this way? Zhang Dago was furious, getting up, he slapped her. "Slap!" A crisp slap echoed. Ye Huan retracted his slap as Zhang Dago fell to the ground, wailing. "Firstly, Ive said before, not a penny will go to you." "Secondly, whether he continues the family line is irrelevant to me." "Thirdly, the two of you have seriously disrupted our companys ongoing work." Saying this, Ye Huan clapped his hands. Wang Tiezhu and Su Zhiqiang came rushing over with electric batons, standing upright, they saluted, "Captain, all good!" "Throw these two out!" Chapter 83: It’s not the money I voluntarily give you, you have no right to take it Chapter 83: Chapter 83: Its not the money I voluntarily give you, you have no right to take itFinally, Zhou Cuihua and Zhang Dagou, as they watched Ye Huan "throwing money" in despair, were dragged into the elevator by Wang Tiezhu and Su Zhiqiang and directly thrown out of the elevator. "Screw you!" Wang Tiezhu and Su Zhiqiang cursed in unison, then each kicked the two of them in the butt. The two rolled down the stairs. But instead of lying on the ground wailing, they quickly got up and rushed towards the crowd snatching money! A full million in cash was falling from the Tianyun International building! The "shadow" of Huaxia Coin darkened the ground! "Go, you get me?" Ye Huan walked over, held a toothpick in his mouth, made a pulling motion in the air with his hands, and said with a smile. Wang Tiezhu and Su Zhiqiang exchanged glances, nodded knowingly, then also walked towards the crowd. ... "Slow down, slow down!" "Ouch, who stepped on my foot!" "Who pulled my hair!" "Leave some for me!" Zhou Cuihua cursed loudly, but her hands were already clutching a few banknotes, obviously just snatched. "Who pulled me, do you want to die?" "Dont let me catch you, or Ill beat you to death!" "Make way, dont snatch my money!" Zhang Dagou was also cursing loudly. Relying on his large build, he had already grabbed more than thirty banknotes. The money in his and Zhou Cuihuas hands added up to over five thousand. That was still considered little. Those who joined the "snatching money" group from the start had at least tens of thousands, and at most hundreds of thousands! The mother and son looked at the cash in these peoples hands, their eyes red with jealousy, and couldnt help but scramble even harder. But they soon realized. At first, the snatching went very smoothly. But now, whenever they were about to grab some money, they were either pulled or stepped on, causing their cooked duck to fly away! "Who stepped on me!!!" Zhang Dagou shouted loudly. "What are you yelling for, my ears are going deaf from your shouting!" "What, you dont agree? Come fight then!" "Am I afraid of you? Ill beat you to death!" Wang Biao was the bully of Jinsha Road, a top enforcer under Tiger Brother, with at least a dozen little brothers under him; how could he tolerate being yelled at by strangers on the street? In a fit of rage, he cursed and then kicked Zhang Dagou in the stomach. The force was so great that it sent the two-hundred-jin Zhang Dagou flying dozens of meters, hitting a group of people, while he clutched his stomach and "pfft" spat a mouthful of blood. Wang Biao didnt stop, ready to kick again! "Dagou!!" Zhou Cuihua cried out in alarm, quickly shielding in front of him. Her weak body couldnt withstand this kick, and she felt like her bones were about to shatter on the spot. "Ouch, who...who is this..." Zhou Cuihua gasped in shock, her eyes wide open in anger, then she looked up. But the moment she looked up, the anger on her face dissipated: "Wang...Wang Boss?" "Oh?" Wang Biao squinted his eyes: "Zhou Cuihua, Zhang Dagou?" He sneered coldly: "Are you here to repay the money?" "No...no!" Zhang Dagous face showed terror: "Wang...Wang Boss, please...please give me a few more days!" "Give you more time? Ill kill you!" Wang Biao directly kicked him again, cursing: "Ive given you months, and you havent shown me a cent, and you still want me to give you more time?" "Wang Boss, please, for my...my little sisters sake, give me...give me a few more days..." Zhang Dagou begged. Half a year ago, unable to resist, he sneaked out of the village and headed straight to a club in Celestial Sea. Who would have thought hed go to a shady club, got caught in a honeytrap just as he arrived! Being extorted for 200,000, he was left with no choice but to contact his "brother-in-laws" big brother, Wang Biao. Wang Biao, out of old friendship, demanded 50,000 in interest and then transferred the money. In half a month, he received Wang Biaos final warning that if the money wasnt repaid, his life would be in danger! So he began to inquire about Zhang Huimins whereabouts and brought Zhou Cuihua to Celestial Sea to ask her for money once he found her workplace. Pay off the debt and use the remaining tens of thousands to go back to the village to marry a wife, life would be perfect! Who knew they wouldnt be able to get the money, not only being thrown out of Tianyun International but also running into this fearsome debt collector! Its so unlucky! Theres only one way... Zhang Dagou took a deep breath, meaningfully, and said with a wicked smile: "Wang Boss, you know my little sisters looks, that mature woman aura no man can resist. How about this, you give me a few more days, and Ill help you get her." Zhou Cuihua got up and also knelt in front of Wang Biao, echoing: "Yes, yes, Wang Boss, my daughter will definitely satisfy you..." The corners of their mouths curled into malicious smiles... Zhang Huimin jinxes her husband... If Wang Biao gets her, hell definitely get hit by a car when he goes out... By then, wouldnt they not have to repay the money... The corners of their mouths curled even more... The next second, Wang Biao slapped them heavily, freezing their smiles and making them spit out blood. "Ye Bosss woman is someone you two can disrespect?" Wang Biaos face was as dark as it could get. Ye Boss? What Ye Boss? It took the mother and son a while to figure it out. Then, Ye Huans figure appeared in their minds. They shivered instantly, their hearts filled with unease. The security guard... that security guard has the last name Ye! Ye Bosss woman? The relationship between Zhang Huimin and that security guard was obviously very close. But who on earth was that security guard, to make Wang Biao respectfully call him Ye Boss? They took a sharp breath, their eyes filled with intense shock. The mother and son couldnt imagine, Zhang Dagou recalled how he had threatened Ye Huan, saying hed complain to the "brother-in-laws" big brother, Wang Biao, to teach Ye Huan a lesson... They were scared out of their wits! Heck, Wang Biao respectfully called Ye Huan Ye Boss! Wang Biao is nothing in front of Ye Huan! What would happen to them for provoking him like this! They couldnt imagine! "Pfft!" Zhang Dagous face was etched with the word "fear," and he spat out a mouthful of blood, his vision going black as he fainted. "Dagou!!" Zhou Cuihua held his head, crying out. Only now did she realize what kind of person that stinky security guard was, whom she had looked down upon when he offered her a cab ride! At this point. "Hello, Ye Boss!" Seeing someone walking towards him, Wang Biao and his group of followers bowed in greeting. Ye Huan walked over with a toothpick in his mouth, squatting in front of Zhou Cuihua. Zhou Cuihua looked terrified, not daring to meet Ye Huans eyes, her gaze darting around. Ye Huans face remained calm as he spoke. "Considering you at least have a blood relation to Zhang Huimin, Ill pay the 300,000 for you." "But let me make it clear, once this money is given, you and Zhang Huimin are completely cut off as family, and if you dare to harass Zhang Huimin again, you bear the consequences." "Also..." "If its not money Im giving you voluntarily, even if its thrown into the water, you have no right to take it." With that, Ye Huan snatched the money from Zhou Cuihua and Zhang Dagous hands. In Zhou Cuihuas dazed eyes. sea??h th ovelFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. He threw it into the sky. Sparking another round of grabbing. Chapter 84 You Are Really Beautiful Chapter 84: Chapter 84 You Are Really Beautiful"Xiao Ye, thank you." In the security office, Zhang Huimin sat on the sofa, her hands on her knees, lips tightly pressed together. "Theres nothing to thank me for." Ye Huan chuckled and said, "Your older brother owed Wang Biao three hundred thousand. I helped him pay it off and warned them not to bother you again." Zhang Huimin nodded with gratitude. The residents of Golden Sand Street were terribly afraid of Wang Biao, illustrating how ruthless he could be. Zhang Dagou owed him three hundred thousand and had not repaid it for a long time. If he couldnt borrow more money, the outcome would definitely be miserable, and even his mother, Zhou Cuihua, would be implicated, perhaps driven to death by him. Zhang Huimin saw through and utterly resented this family, and had already stopped considering them as family. However, blood is thicker than water, and the bond of blood cannot be erased. Thinking they might face Wang Biaos fierce retaliation, Zhang Huimin still felt a bit of pity. Hearing that Ye Huan had already paid off the three hundred thousand debt, she sighed in relief. "Xiao Ye, I... Ill pay you back the three hundred thousand as soon as I can." Sarch* The N?vel?ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Ye Huan helplessly spread his hands, saying, "Sister Zhang, this amount of money means nothing to me." "Even so, three hundred thousand is not a small sum, I will definitely repay you quickly." "How will you repay?" Ye Huan asked. Zhang Huimin was stunned, her head lowered slightly. Three hundred thousand is indeed not a sum she could gather in a short time. Ye Huan patted Zhang Huimins shoulder, with a teasing smile, said, "Sister Zhang, I think you should first improve your quality of life before talking about the three hundred thousand." "Whats wrong with my quality of life..." "Sister Zhang, you really have a strong ability to lie with your eyes open, reluctant to replace such cheap things and still say theres nothing wrong with your quality of life?" Ye Huan smiled with narrowed eyes, glancing at Zhang Huimin. Zhang Huimins face flushed, and she quickly covered the small hole in her thigh-high stockings caused by a snag! She was terribly embarrassed, thinking that a small hole doesnt affect daily use, and its not very noticeable, so she didnt bother spending tens of bucks to buy a new pair... Unexpectedly, Ye Huans eyes were that sharp! Zhang Huimin didnt know why, usually when men stared at her like that, she couldnt help but feel disgusted. But being stared at by Ye Huan, besides her heart pounding and feeling very shy, not only did she not feel annoyed, but she even felt a bit proud... "..." "Alright, stop looking." Three minutes later, Zhang Huimin blushed and spat. Ye Huan finally came back to his senses. He was just joking, trying to lighten Zhang Huimins mood, but who knew he would get mesmerized. "Sister Zhang, you are really beautiful." Ye Huan praised. "No... no way..." "Absolutely, you mesmerized me completely." "Thats... nonsense!" Zhang Huimins eyes dodged, but she couldnt help feeling a bit pleased. "Wheres the nonsense!" Ye Huan looked serious: "You are more beautiful than those A-list celebrities, even the top ones!" Zhang Huimins face instantly turned red to her ears, quickly changing the subject, "Xiao Ye, dont talk nonsense, I will repay you the three hundred thousand as soon as possible..." Ye Huan pretended to be displeased, interrupting her: "If you mention this again, Ill be angry." Zhang Huimin immediately went silent, her expression complex. Ye Huan looked serious: "Sister Zhang, I really dont need the three hundred thousand. If I needed it, wouldnt I just ask you again?" "But... but I really dont know how... how to repay you..." "Repay me? Thats simple." Ye Huan stood up and meticulously observed Zhang Huimin, occasionally smacking his lips with a satisfied expression, "Sister Zhang, you should know what I want, right?" "I... I dont know..." The two were almost face to face, Zhang Huimin shyly avoiding eye contact, didnt dare to look directly at Ye Huan. Could it be Xiao Ye wants... Zhang Huimins face flushed suddenly. Yet she found herself not resisting the idea at all. Even somewhat expectant. In that moment, both of them closed their eyes... "Thats great, Sister Zhang, in the future just cook for me every day, deducting the meal costs from the three hundred thousand, hows that?" As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Huimin was stunned, then opened her eyes. Ye Huan had already sat back. She was dumbfounded. Just... just now, wasnt the rhythm supposed to be... "Zhang Huimin, Xiao Ye is so pure, it was you who misunderstood!" The "little devil" in Zhang Huimins mind exclaimed this sentence, and only then did she realize that she had misunderstood Ye Huan. This made her feel guilty and she didnt dare to look at Ye Huan anymore. "Sister Zhang, in the future make meals for me according to a fifty-buck standard for each meal, with two meat dishes and two vegetables, balanced nutrition, got it?" "Fifty bucks?!" Zhang Huimin exclaimed. "Yes, fifty. I want to eat well, but of course, Sister Zhang you should also eat well, no less than me." Zhang Huimins eyes glistened with a layer of tears, deeply touched. She knew Ye Huan was using this excuse to let her improve her quality of life. "Ring, ring, ring." The phone rang, Ye Huan swung his phone and smiled, "Sister Zhang, from tomorrow onwards, my three meals a day are up to you, the CEOs office has something for me, Ill head up." "Hey, Xiao Ye..." Zhang Huimin got up anxiously, she still wanted to show her gratitude, invite Ye Huan for a meal outside, and then... then watch a movie or something. But Ye Huan was too fast, his figure had already vanished completely. ... Tianyun International, CEOs office. "How to negotiate the equity?" Ye Huan plopped down on the sofa, poured himself a cup of tea, and grumbled, "You called me over just for this?" "Of course, what else would I call you over for? To check on your progress with throwing a million to win over a beauty?" Liu Tianyun tucked her hair behind her ear, her expression calm. Ye Huan blushed: "Wife, Im not as terrible as you think!" "Oh?" Liu Tianyun sipped her tea, meaningfully said: "The security office does have surveillance cameras..." Chapter 85: Tiandu Finance—Wang Junjie Chapter 85: Chapter 85: Tiandu FinanceWang Junjie"Hold it, hold it!" Ye Huan quickly gestured with his hand, saying, "What do you really want?" "I dont want much, just to discuss some stock matters with you." Liu Tianyun looked pleased. "How do you want to discuss this?" "A stock transfer." Liu Tianyun tapped the table, contemplated for a moment, and said, "I want you to transfer the 5% equity in your hands to me." Ye Huans face darkened, "Are you robbing me? Just 1% of Lius shares is worth hundreds of millions, and yet you offer me just a million, asking for 5%!?" "Is it not possible?" "Youre really robbing me." Ye Huan seethed with anger, almost spitting out blood in rage. Liu Tianyun drank the tea in her cup in one go and held out a finger, "This is the lowest I will go." Before Ye Huan could speak, Liu Tianyun pulled a document from the folder beside her, saying, "Sign it." Ye Huan glanced at the document, his face instantly turning as dark as Bao Qingtian. "Liu GroupEquity Transfer Agreement." This woman really came prepared! The equity transfer agreement was ready! 1% of Lius Groups shares could easily be worth 150 million or even more, thats not an exaggeration! He only got a million, and he spent it all. This was a huge loss... A loss is a loss, Brother Huan swiftly signed his name on the transfer agreement; after all, compared to 5%, this 1% was indeed nothing. Liu Tianyun, looking satisfied, took back the transfer agreement. "Now we are equal shareholders in Lius Group. If you need more help, feel free to contact me." "Of course, each time there will be a 1% equity charge as a commission." "By the way, I need to inspect the Sofia restaurant, a subsidiary of our company, shortly, and Im missing a driver." ... Brother Huan was reluctant in every way, yet he succumbed to Liu Tianyun, becoming a dignified driver. After all, only by taking down Liu Tianyun and completing a life harmony with her to have a child, Brother Huan could inherit the true skills from Master Gou. Sofia restaurant, a globally renowned high-end French dining chain, with fewer than five hundred outlets worldwide, but each locations standards rival those of a five-star hotel, is truly the pinnacle of a dining brand. The only Sofia restaurant in Celestial Sea City is managed and operated by Tianyun International. Recently, an important overseas client was scheduled to visit Huaxia, and Liu Tianyun had decided on Sofia restaurant as the meeting location, coming in to inspect if there were any issues with the management and operation of the restaurant. As the two of them arrived at the restaurant entrance, a female attendant came up smiling: "Sir, Miss, how are you..." Her smile froze the moment she saw the two of them. Oh my god! The president actually came to the restaurant! And the man beside her, isnt he the "fianc" of General Manager Tang Yao! Why did these big shots come without saying a word! The restaurant wasnt ready with a welcome ceremony, what to do! "Table S-03." Liu Tianyun said flatly, "No need to prepare any ceremony, and no need to inform others." "Got it!" The attendant wiped the cold sweat from her brow, stood ramrod straight, and was just short of saluting. Sofia restaurants setting and dish grade divided the space into CBAS four standards area, and the S-Class area was the most luxurious dining area, with relatively the best service. Liu Tianyuns eyes were sharp, observing the attendants every move. "Miss, would it be convenient for me to join you for a meal?" A male voice suddenly sounded. A man with slicked-back hair and wearing a genuine Givenchy suit walked over with a smile. He gave Ye Huan a cold glance, showing disdain, with fury boiling in his heart. From the moment the two of them entered the S-Class dining area, he had targeted this "rich beautiful woman." What kind of world is this? A pauper can hook up with a rich beauty? And also ride on the beautys coattails to dine in the S-Class area of Sofia restaurant? Outrageous! This pauper entering a restaurant is just polluting the air, isnt it! Seeing the "rich beauty" remained silent, he once again flashed a smile, his teeth gleaming, "Miss, would you mind if I sit down? Im willing to pick up the tab." "Scram..." Liu Tianyuns face turned icy, barely getting out the "G" syllable... "Of course!" Ye Huan thumped the table heavily, immediately stood up, pressed the mans shoulder, and sat him on the chair, smiling, "Buddy, you mentioned youd pick up the tab, it wouldnt be right not to let you sit now!" Buddy? Whos your buddy?! Can you not act like were old pals, youre ruining my suit thats worth tens of thousands! Forget it, let it get ruined. As long as he could ruin something from that "rich beauty." Thinking this, a lascivious smile appeared on the corner of the mans disgusted face, "Miss, may I know your esteemed surname?" "Her surname is Liu, and Im Ye Huan!" Whos asking you! Your mouth is like a Gatling gun, cant stop talking, can you? The man cursed inwardly, absolutely furious. The next moment, he reached into his jacket pocket, taking out an ordinary business card... After hesitating several times, he put the card back, drawing out a luxurious embossed gold business card, pushing it from his side of the table towards Liu Tianyun, smiling, "Hello, Miss Liu, its a pleasure dining with you, Im the President of Tiandu Financial Wang Junjie." As he spoke, he subtly rolled up his sleeves. A luxurious watch fastened on the black and white shirt sleeve, surrounded by seven sparkling crystal diamonds. Many nearby customers gasped in amazement. "Holy crap, a Vacheron Constantin Rulsuinty? This watch is worth over two million, amazing!" "Youre missing the point! That shirt, isnt it the Givenchy 99th Anniversary limited edition celebratory release? Worth millions!" "You guys are fools, missing the point? Hes the President of Tiandu Financial, didnt you hear!" "Tiandu Financial? Damn! Is it that 5 billion valued star company thats yet to go public?" "Exactly!" "Too amazing, such demeanor isnt something a mere mortal can possess!" In no time, customers noticing the commotion around them started handing business cards to Wang Junjie. Wang Junjie accepted them one by one with a smile, the pride on his face was undisguised. "Whoa, buddy, youre really something!" Ye Huan was "surprised," saying, "Shouldnt we have a better meal since youre here?" Sear?h the n?vel_Fire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Of course, an ordinary dish would be an insult to a beauty like Miss Liu." "Only exquisite top-tier French cuisine is worthy of her looks." Wang Junjie took the napkin on the table and tucked it into his collar, snapping his fingers, "Waiter, lets order." Chapter 86: Bro, you should have said earlier, I could have translated it. Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Bro, you should have said earlier, I could have translated it."Alright sir, heres the menu." The waiter smiled sweetly and placed the menu on Wang Junjies table before respectfully stepping aside. Wang Junjies expression changed slightly, and he said, "Excuse me, is waitress Zhu Meili here? Id like her to serve me." The waiter looked embarrassed and said, "Sir, Im really sorry, Sister Zhu has the day off and isnt in the restaurant. If you feel my service is not up to par, please let me know." "Oh, no... no problem..." Wang Junjies face looked unpleasant as he swallowed hard. Sofia restaurants menu is all in French. If customers dont understand French, the waiter will assist with translation. But people who can come to such a high-end venue, even if they dont know French, wouldnt lower themselves to ask the waiter for help translating. That would be quite embarrassing! So regulars at Sofia restaurant all have a familiar waiter, and each time they come, they just say the usual menu. How could it be that Zhu Meili took a day off at such an unfortunate time? At this point, the waiter smiled and asked, "Sir, you dont speak French, do you? Would you like my help? I can translate every word on the menu for you." "Exactly, dude, my stomachs practically empty. Just let this lovely lady help you translate; its the same." Ye Huan said seriously, holding a toothpick in his mouth. Instantly, the surrounding customers seized the opportunity to flatter Wang Junjie, this up-and-coming business star, and started berating Ye Huan. Sear?h the N?vel(F)ire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Kid, what nonsense is your friend spouting? How could Mr. Wang not speak French? Just look at his aura, he definitely knows French!" "Exactly, in Mr. Wangs eyes, French is nothing, something he could learn in minutes!" "In ancient times, with Mr. Wangs foreign language skills, he could argue with the Allied Forces, so how could he not know French!" "Kid, you benefited from Mr. Wangs glow to dine in the S area, so stop talking, its annoying!" Initially, Wang Junjie was going to swallow his pride and ask the waiter to help translate, but the flattery left him in a difficult position. His face turned as black as coal. "Sir, may I ask...?" the waiter probed, "Do you need help?" "No... no need, I was just thinking of a dish to match this ladys beauty." Wang Junjie chuckled awkwardly and then forced himself to say, "Ah si ba, ah si ba..." The waiter looked displeased, "Sir, why are you swearing?" "Ah ba si, ah si ba, baka yarou, shi la shi la de..." Wang Junjie glanced at the menu, muttering his broken "French." The waiters face showed anger, "Sir, although Im just a waiter, I have my dignity. If you continue to insult me, I have the right to use the law to protect my rights!" "You... you misunderstood." Wang Junjies forehead was covered with tiny beads of sweat. He gestured with his hands, trying to describe the shape of the dish. But no matter how he gestured, the waiter still couldnt understand what he meant. The surrounding onlookers expressions changed slightly... Could it be that Wang Junjie, Mr. Wang, really doesnt speak French? But in the financial industry, mastering "English, French, German" isnt it supposed to be the basics of basics? At this moment... "Saint-Jacques scallops." "Grilled Camembert cheese." One dish name after another in French was announced. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, at least they flattered the right person. Of course, Wang Junjie is a heavyweight in the financial industry, how could he possibly not know the most basic French? "French apple tart." "Seared foie gras pro." Again, a few French dish names were announced, and everyone furrowed their brows slightly. This voice, why doesnt it sound like Wang Junjies? They looked closely, dumbfounded. In their minds, they cried out: Impossible!!! Ye Huan, sitting in a seat against the wall, smiled and announced one dish name after another. "Sir, are you... are you sure you want to order... these items?" The waiters eye twitched twice, as these ordered dishes already totaled over two million. "Its fine, this guys treating; just write it down." Ye Huan said with a sweet smile and announced another round of dish names. Finally, he snapped his fingers and said, "Ten bottles of Royal Salute Zrsk, the top-tier." Royal Salute Zrsk, each bottle priced at half a million. Ordering ten bottles at once... Treat? Treat you to death, serves you right for being uncivilized, karmas real! The female waiter had a very colorful expression, cursing Wang Junjie in her heart. She scribbled on her notepad, then gave a thumbs up, and winked her lively big eyes, "Sir, your French is truly superb, much better than some uncivilized person." With that, she sneered a few times before turning away. Wang Junjie lowered his head, his face was extremely embarrassed. He raised his head slightly, looking at the "rich and beautiful" girl across the table... Seeing her disdainful look, Wang Junjies old face blushed, wishing he could find a crack in the floor to crawl into! "Dude, if you couldnt speak French and were embarrassed to ask the waiter to translate, you should have just said so earlier, right?" "Thats nothing to be ashamed of!" "You invited me and my wife to dinner, so whats the big deal if I place the order?" "After all, not everyone can master this language, some pigs not mastering it is normal and understandable!" Ye Huan said with a smiling face, repeatedly patting Wang Junjies shoulder in a show of "comfort." These words made everyones and Wang Junjies mouth twitch. The customers especially. This stunning beauty with a top-class figure is actually his wife? He really must have ancestors who did good deeds for eight generations! Also, whats going on? This guy dresses so ordinarily, with no air about him, yet he speaks French? And speaks it so fluently? This French could even pass an advanced level certification! Its preposterous! Although everyone was momentarily surprised, they quickly regained their composure. Its not hard to see that Mr. Wangs purpose for hosting this meal was to win over this guys wife. Since Mr. Wang has already shown his status, a little embarrassment over French is no big deal! As long as Mr. Wang shows off his extraordinary wealth, along with his talent and charm, winning over this guys wife would be easy! Wang Junjie thought the same. He calmed himself down and returned to normal. Meanwhile, a sinister look flashed in his eyes... Kid, you made me lose face in public, huh? Watch how I make up for this on your woman, and earn back this face tenfold! Chapter 87: Insufficient Balance. Chapter 87: Chapter 87: Insufficient Balance.The rectangular dining table was covered with one extravagant dish after another. Even though he didnt know exactly what dishes Ye Huan had ordered, based on the presentation and quality, they definitely werent cheap! Under the table, Wang Junjies fists were tightly clenched. Originally, he only wanted to order dishes that together wouldnt exceed a hundred thousand, but looking at it now, this definitely went way over! "Honey, try this, come on, come on." "And this, you dont usually get to eat this!" "Especially this one, Atlantic Ruisz caviar, I heard if you buy it in Huaxia Coin, it costs a hundred per piece. This little plate here probably costs about twenty thousand!" Ye Huan said with a smile, continuously adding food to Liu Tianyuns bowl. "I... I can help myself, you dont need to do it." Liu Tianyun forced a smile, but her expression wasnt very pleasant. If it werent for Ye Huan not having used the chopsticks himself, she might have lost her temper on the spot. "Alright then, help yourself, dont be polite!" Ye Huan said with a serious face, then picked up the small bowl filled with caviar... Wang Junjies hand holding the spoon froze in mid-air. Ye Huan gulped down the entire bowl of caviar in one go. "So refreshing, so delicious!" Ye Huan patted his belly, gave a thumbs-up to the air. "You..." Wang Junjie glared, furious and his hands were trembling. Politeness? Im the one who hosted this dinner, shouldnt it be me saying that? What are you showing off for? And this twenty-thousand caviar, you gulp it down in one bite without leaving a bit for me? Hearing that it cost twenty-thousand almost made him pass out from anger, but he suppressed his fury, planning to eat a bit more to get his moneys worth. Who knew this pauper had no decency, just grabbed the bowl and swallowed it all! But now wasnt the time to explode, he still needed to win over this "white, rich, and beautiful" lady! Wang Junjie extinguished his inner anger again, showing a smile: "Miss Liu, may I ask where do you work?" Liu Tianyuns face was cold, not wanting to engage. But since he was paying, answering him once wasnt uncalled for. "Tianyun International." "I didnt expect Miss Liu to be such a talented lady, to be able to work at Tianyun International." Wang Junjie applauded. Suddenly, a shiver went through his heart. Last name Liu? Working at Tianyun International, a beauty too... Could it be... Impossible! Wang Junjie dismissed the ridiculous thought. Then he smiled and said: "Miss Liu, let me introduce myself again. Im Wang Junjie, thirty years old, the CEO of Tiandu Finances." "I currently have assets worth millions, and Ive also been named the new entrepreneur of Celestial Sea." "You should know, the last person who got that title was your Tianyun Internationals president C Liu Tianyun!" "It can be said, under my leadership, Tiandu Finances will surpass Tianyun International sooner or later." "Moreover, defeating the Liu Family that backs it and stepping on them to become a prominent family, is well within reach!" Wang Junjies words were full of grandiosity. "Bravo!!!" Instantly, the surrounding customers stood up to applaud, cheering him repeatedly, all praising him. Quite a few people even started competing to see whose voice was louder, trying to catch Wang Junjies attention and gain his favor. Wang Junjie was immensely satisfied with the reaction of the surrounding customers, looking very pleased. The next second, he suddenly showed regret: "There is a huge regret in my life, I am afflicted with an illness!" "Its called love!" "I am now thirty, yet I still havent found the love of my life." As soon as he finished speaking. Ye Huan opened his mouth: "Bro, what you have is not some love sickness, but a mental illness! Specifically, I can confirm its daydream delusion, I suggest you consult with a renowned mental health expert C Dr. Ye." "Shut up!" Interrupting his confession already made Wang Junjie extremely furious. Being called mentally ill made him slam the table and stand up in rage. "What, did I say something wrong?" Ye Huans mouth curled up: "Everyone knows the Liu Family is one of the four great families in Celestial Sea, you keep saying youll trample them, if thats not a mental illness, what is?" "What? Dont believe it!" Wang Junjie sneered, "Youve never seen the world, its just the Liu Family, give me ten years and Ill have them under my feet!" As those words left his mouth, he suddenly shivered. Why did it feel like the temperature just dropped? Strange! Under the dim light, Liu Tianyuns gaze was icy to the extreme, it was as if the air had solidified... "Clap. Clap. Clap." Ye Huan clapped, then smiling, he said: "And I say the Liu Family can crush you in ten minutes, do you believe it!" Wang Junjie shivered again. His eyes dodged a couple of times, his face somewhat unnatural. Crush the Liu Family? Talk is cheap, Wang Junjie was very clear of his own weight. But to win over this "white, rich, beautiful" lady, he had to boast to the sky! Whatever, no Liu Family members here, just blabber away! He wanted to speak again. Ye Huan, however, started dialing a phone number. "Hey, theres a guy named Wang Junjie here, CEO of Tiandu Finances I believe, he wants to annihilate the Liu Family. Im giving you ten minutes, handle it swiftly." With that, Ye Huan hung up, picking up his chopsticks again: "Now you dont have to wait ten years, in ten minutes the Liu Family can crush your little company." Wang Junjie showed a panicked expression. However, he quickly calmed down, sneering: "Who here heard me say I want to annihilate the Liu Family?" No one responded. "I did." Liu Tianyuns face was frosty, her voice seemingly dropped the temperature around her by a few degrees. Wang Junjies face turned furious again, then he took a deep breath and laid all his cards on the table: "Miss Liu, youve got it all wrong, havent you? Although I dont know what situation led to someone like you, with your figure and conditions, ending up with this sewer rat." "But I can assure you, you must regret it?" "I can give you a chance to change your fate!" "You may not know how wealthy I am, you may not be able to imagine the kind of future I have... Liu Tianyun directly interrupted him, sneering: "I can already imagine how regretful youll look in ten minutes." "You... you think just because you have a pretty face, you dont need to show any respect?" "Ten minutes? Do you really think this sewer rat can actually call the Liu Family?" "Besides, the Liu Family is nothing!" "Im actually giving them ten more years of life, if they seek death, I can annihilate them in minutes!" Wang Junjie banged the table as he spoke, one sentence after another. The more he spoke, the worse Liu Tianyuns expression became, her eyes seemed to be shooting fire. "Beauty, I advise you to return to the right path soon. Following this sewer rat, youre just wasting your good looks!" "How about this, be my mistress, Ill give you half a million a month as pocket money, you may not be able to imagine so much money. But nevermind, Ill show you the world later!" "Ill let you know just how wealthy I am!" Sear?h the N??eFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Now, Ill give a small demonstration of my financial power!" Wang Junjie looked smug, taking out a black-gold VIP card from his pocket, handing it to a nearby server: "Check please, add an extra fifty thousand as your tip!" As he said this, his heart bled. But if he could secure this "white, rich, beautiful" lady, it wouldnt be a loss! Later, getting her for dozens more times would surely earn it back! Just then, the servers POS machine went "beep", a red light flashing. A mechanical cold female voice emerged from the POS machine. "Insufficient funds!" Chapter 88: 8,300,000? Chapter 88: Chapter 88: 8,300,000?Insufficient balance? Once that was said, everyones expressions were quite something. The surrounding customers looked at Wang Junjie with an extremely peculiar gaze. "Ho...how is that possible!" Wang Junjie felt humiliated, angry and said: "Theres a million in my card, how could it be insufficient balance?" Ye Huan crossed his legs, looking displeased: "Buddy, did you say youd treat us, but actually came for a free meal? No money in the card, yet have the nerve to act all big?" "What do you know." Wang Junjie stood up in a rage, fuming: "I remember having over a million in my card, how could it be insufficient? Impossible!" "Sir, have you made a mistake?" The waitress raised an eyebrow and said, "The total amount for your dining today is seventy-eight million six hundred thousand, the discounted price is seventy-eight million, plus the fifty million tip you mentioned, totaling eighty-three million." "How can that be?" Wang Junjie grabbed the waitresss shoulder and shook her, "Are you ripping me off? How could one meal cost so much?" The waitress broke free, furrowed her brows, and said coldly: "We at Sofias restaurant are a global chain, a renowned high-end dining brand worldwide, we dont engage in such price gouging. If you dont believe me, feel free to file a complaint to our headquarters." With that, she printed a receipt from the POS machine and said, "These are the costs of all dishes and drinks." "Gulp." Wang Junjies throat moved with difficulty, his hands trembling as he took the receipt. Upon seeing it, his vision went black, and he slumped into the chair, almost passing out. Eighty-three million? Did one meal indeed cost eighty-three million! What kind of wine is this? Royal Salute Zrsk? Fifty million a bottle?! Wang Junjies face changed drastically; he picked up an empty bottle on the table and looked at it. At this, his mouth opened wide enough to fit a stone, and he inadvertently let go, the bottle smashing to the ground. The drink this brat was gulping down was actually Royal Salute Zrsk, fifty million a bottle? What is going on! Isnt this kid a poor bastard? How could he know about such top-tier wine from around the world? Moreover, he ordered a full ten bottles! A total of five hundred million! Wang Junjies anger surged. His face was full of rage. When Ye Huan was pouring Royal Salute Zrsk down his throat just now, he instinctively thought it was just ordinary alcohol costing a few thousand per bottle, never realizing it was fifty million per bottle of premium wine. At this time, Ye Huans lips curled into a smile, exclaiming: "Oh my, its so expensive, Wang brother, youre really generous!" "I got the impression from you that ordinary dishes dont match my wifes beauty, for that I give you a hundred likes!" "But Im a pauper, unfamiliar with French cuisine, so I just went for the expensive stuff. Hope you dont mind." "However, eight hundred thirty million, I believe is just a drop in the bucket for Wang brother, right? Haha!" Ye Huan said smilingly, patting Wang Junjie on the back repeatedly. Wang Junjies face turned a livid pork liver color with anger, his whole body trembling, feeling like he swallowed shit! He took a deep breath, and asked, "Im a bit short on cash right now, can I buy on credit this one time?" "Credit? We at Sofias restaurant have never entertained the concept of credit!" The waitresss face turned cold, "Sir, if youre planning to dine and dash..." She waved her hand. Instantly, dozens of security guards holding electric batons stormed in, hemming Wang Junjie in tightly. Ye Huan stood up with a serious face, slamming the table: "Everyone knows what just happened, please all see clearly!" "It was him who insisted on treating us, I couldnt stop him!" "Now that he has no money to pay, it has nothing to do with us, who let him act all high and mighty?" The waitress nodded: "We are well aware of the situation, this bill is naturally Wang sirs responsibility." "I..." Wang Junjies face turned steel blue, his face flushed with rage. But before he could finish his rant, he shut his mouth. At this point, no amount of scolding or fretting would help. Dining and dashing at Sofias restaurant? Thats seeking death! Better to spend this unjust money, and then earn it back from this "white rich beauty" tenfold, earn it all back! Taking a deep breath, Wang Junjie took out his bank card, his face shadowed: "Only eighty-three million, just a number in my eyes." "A mere meal worth this much? Completely unworthy of Miss Lius looks." "For this, I deeply apologize!" With that, he pinched a golden bank card between two fingers from his pocket and handed it to the waitress. The waitress reached out to take the card, her brows furrowing soon after. Wang Junjies face was ashen, and he clamped the bank card tightly between two fingers. The two were at a standstill for quite some time. Finally, amid increasingly peculiar glances from surrounding customers, Wang Junjie gritted his teeth and let go. "Thank you for your patronage, Mr. Wang..." The waitress sneered, forcibly grabbed the bank card, swiped it on the POS machine, and nonchalantly tossed it back: "A total of eighty-three million, heres your invoice, please take it." Wang Junjie almost received the invoice with tears in his eyes. He sat down, looked at Liu Tianyun, and forced a smile that looked worse than crying, speaking: "Miss Liu, you understand now, right? As long as youre with me, youll have endless money to spend!" "Stop acting," Liu Tianyun chuckled and said, "In one minute, your doom arrives." One minute? Doom? One more minute, and it will be ten minutes since this kid hung up the phone! Wang Junjie sneered dismissively, "Miss Liu, you mean this kids call just now was to inform the Liu family?" As soon as he said it, the surrounding customers chuckled softly. Liu family is one of the four big families in Celestial Sea. Their phone number is something many dream of having, impossible for this kid to dial at random! Wang Junjie nonchalantly put his legs on the table and said, "Woman, I advise you not to be ungrateful, follow me, and youll be able to live the good life." "This kid, a pauper, being with him is wasting your outstanding beauty and figure." "You, a woman like this, can only be worthy of my possession, Wang Junjie!" "Who is Wang Junjie? A chosen one who will reshuffle the four big families in the future!" "I dare say, in less than ten years, one of the four big families, the Liu family, will be renamed the Wang family!" "How about this, although you are a bit unwise, Im not against giving you one last chance. As long as you break up with him publicly and climb into my bed tonight, I wouldnt mind making you my secret lover!" He was reasoning earnestly. At this time... "Ring ring." The sudden phone ring made him shiver all over. Wang Junjie twitched the corners of his eyes, and an overwhelming sense of unease welled up in his heart... Impossible! This is impossible! S~ea??h the N?vel?ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. He suppressed the panic in his heart and took the call... "Wang Junjie? Youve the nerve to publicly insult my Liu clan, you are the first!" After speaking, he heard a cold snort from the other end of the phone. Then, a "beep" sounded, indicating the call was hung up. At this time, a continuous stream of phone calls began pouring in. "Boss Wang, bad news, the Wang Corporation fund we set up has faced an incident, the stocks we invested in were attacked, resulting in losses of tens of millions!" "Boss Wang, trouble! Many investors saw the situation and are redeeming their assets, even filing complaints with the bank!" "Boss Wang, major trouble! The bank has announced an investigation into us, and all our companys liquid funds have been frozen!" "Boss Wang, its over! The Liu Group has launched a full-scale attack on us, emptied all our funds, our companys cash flow is broken!" "Boss Wang..." Chapter 89: The Liu Family’s Prince Consort! Chapter 89: Chapter 89: The Liu Familys Prince Consort!"Bang." The phone slipped from Wang Junjies already damp palm and fell to the ground, and he collapsed to the floor with vacant eyes. But coincidentally, the phone landed and the speaker was activated, allowing everyone to clearly hear the urgent voice from the other end of the call. The whole room fell into silence. Then... "Hiss" The sound of people gasping echoed through the room. The customers couldnt help standing up, their faces filled with extreme shock. They looked at Ye Huan, holding onto their chairs, arms trembling continuously. "How... how is that possible? He... he just called the Liu Family?" "I... I didnt see wrong. If it wasnt the Liu Family he called, how could Tiancheng Finance run into trouble instantly?" "Trouble? Oh my god, didnt you hear? The capital chain is broken, banks have sealed accounts, other companies canceled cooperationthis is the rhythm of going bankrupt!" Everyones eyes widened in disbelief, their throats moving with difficulty. Tiancheng Finance was the rising star company in Celestial Sea City, yet this man destroyed it with a single phone call? It really only took ten minutes for Tiancheng Finance to completely collapse! Just what kind of status, what kind of powerful figure is this man! Wang Junjie looked ashen, facing Ye Huan, his voice trembling: "Who... who are you..." "Who am I? I think you should ask who this Miss Liu is." Ye Huan said with a smile. But these words were like a thunderbolt, jolting Wang Junjie all over. He connected the clues in his mind, Miss Liu? Working at Tianyun International? Could it be... The next second, Liu Tianyuns words completely confirmed his suspicions! "To destroy my Liu Family, youve got quite the imagination," Liu Tianyun sneered. Wang Junjie was completely speechless, lying on the ground with empty eyes. This "white rich beauty" is the president of Tianyun International, the eldest daughter of the Liu FamilyLiu Tianyun! Boasting in front of the eldest daughter of the Liu Family that he would destroy the Liu Family and take her as his secret mistress? And support her for life, giving her endless money? What a joke! Not to mention the Liu Family, her Tianyun International alone has enough money to last several lifetimes! What kind of courage did he have to make such a statement! And this pauper... He... he is actually Liu Tianyuns husband! Why did I look down on him? Why?! Tears of regret rolled down Wang Junjies face. One misstep led to a full series of mistakes, all because of a moments lust, everything was lost, everything was gone! In front of the Liu Family, Tiancheng Finance is not even an ant; its just a speck of dust that can be easily crushed with a breeze! Yet he actually uttered such blasphemous words. Everything is over! No money, no woman, no company. Even social status is gone! Wang Junjie was filled with deep remorse, crying and pounding the ground. But at this time, not a single person dared to sympathize with him or speak for him. The customers who had previously mocked Ye Huan were feeling guilty, looking very panicked, and many took the opportunity to flee the restaurant. Some even crawled out from under tables, afraid of being noticed. At this point, Liu Tianyun calmly commented, "The surveillance captured everything clearly when you were cheering him on. I wonder, what are you planning to use to destroy my Liu Family?" "Thud!" Many people suddenly blacked out and fell to the ground in fright. Soon after, several Rolls-Royce Phantoms pulled up in front of the restaurant, and dozens of men in black escorted Wang Junjie away... Disrespecting the eldest daughter of the Liu Family? Claiming to destroy the Liu Family? Looking down on the Liu Familys Prince Consort? There used to be many such people... But under the thunderous methods of the Liu Family, all of them disappeared silently from this world. Wang Junjies fate can be easily imagined... ... "Burp~" Sarch* The Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Letting out a satisfied burp, Ye Huan walked out of the restaurant, patting his belly contentedly. It must be said, the chef at Sofias restaurant truly represents the pinnacle of French culinary skills; the taste was simply superb! Liu Tianyun tossed over a set of car keys, got into the passenger seat, and closed her eyes to rest. The meaning was clear: You drive! Ye Huans face darkened, but his body obediently got into the drivers seat. Just as he started the car, the closed-eyed Liu Tianyun spoke. "Theres an important business negotiation the day after tomorrow about the launch of the Enchanting Shadow skincare cream into the European market. Youre coming with me." "No way." "Its just a business negotiation, around two hours." "Im not going." Ye Huans reply was firm. Just to get this woman to give him one hundred thousand, he had to trade 1% of the Liu Groups stock. As the saying goes, if you dont put your foot down for three days, youll tear the roof off; having a strong punch gives you the right to speak! Liu Tianyun is so arrogant now, probably because Brother Huan has been too lenient! If he were a bit harsher, learned Brother Jinfus hawkish style of subjugating a wife, he could definitely make Liu Tianyun obedient in no time! Ye Huan secretly nodded, seems like its necessary to learn from Brother Jinfu. "You must go," Liu Tianyun said, "The formula for the Enchanting Shadow series products was perfected by you, and we cant provide a detailed introduction of the product without you. If we cant complete the introduction, the difficulty of negotiation will increase exponentially." "Just because you asked me to go, should I go? Doesnt that make it seem like I have no dignity?" Ye Huan whistled cheerfully, the corners of his mouth lifting: "Actually, its not like I cant go, but I have a condition..." "Say it." "Wife, weve been married for so long; dont you think its time to consider having a child..." At this point, Ye Huan instantly shut his mouth, swallowing down the rest of his words. Because the car nearly turned into an ice cave! Liu Tianyun snorted coldly, the cold expression on her face dissipating: "Ye Huan, were a contractual couple; please dont entertain such thoughts!" As soon as she finished speaking. "Ring ring." The phone rang. Ye Huan looked closely. Zhang Huimin! Without a second thought, Brother Huan quickly answered! "Hello, Sister Zhang, whats up?" "Little Ye, this... its so late, am I bothering you?" "No, no, no, Sister Zhang, if you have something to say, just say it!" Ye Huan said, then glanced at Liu Tianyun from the corner of his eye and quietly turned down the volume a bit on the phone. "I... my houses water pipe burst, can you... can you come and help me fix it?" Zhang Huimins voice was very small, with a hint of shyness. After saying this, she was a little regretful... Its already ten oclock at night. Asking Ye Huan to fix a water pipe at this time, what if he misunderstands? "Fix a water pipe?" "Thats no problem, Sister Zhang, just wait, Ill be there soon!" Ye Huan laughed heartily as he said. Zhang Huimins face turned red with shyness, and she became a bit flustered, saying: "Little Ye, how about tomorrow, lets forget it for tonight..." "No need, Ill be there in a moment!" Saying this, Ye Huan hung up the phone, then opened the car door and got out, chuckling to Liu Tianyun: "Wife, Im going to help a colleague fix a water pipe, you can drive back yourself!" With that, Brother Huan hailed a cab and left. Luckily, that call came just in time! Judging by the previous atmosphere, if he stayed in the car any longer, Liu Tianyun would certainly lecture him for a long time. Oh well, the child-making issue can be discussed next time! Chapter 90 Silver Bay—Ye Bingning Chapter 90: Chapter 90 Silver BayYe BingningCelestial Sea City, Golden Sand Street. Thick clouds covered the sky, and rain poured down on the street. A fierce wind blew, making the already bare trees, stripped by the impending autumn, even more "naked" as leaves were whisked away. Under the dim streetlights on both sides of the street, a gang with tattooed arms brawled with another gang dressed as security guards. The scene was a bloodbath, filled with wailing cries. The once bustling street was now deserted except for these two groups, even passing cars made quick U-turns to avoid getting involved. Altogether, both groups had around thirty people, all with fierce expressions, armed with weapons, facing off against each other. Wang Biao held a cigarette in his mouth, a Wolf Fang Club in his hand, stepping on the head of a thug in security uniform, he cursed, "You dare act tough with me? Are you not afraid to die?" "Wang Biao, youre too arrogant, let my people go!" yelled gang leader Deng Junchao, throwing his security cap to the ground in rage, "Do you know who I am? Opposing us in Celestial Sea, you must have a death wish!" "You still dare to shout?" Wang Biao raised the Wolf Fang Club again and slammed it down on the head of the thug under his foot: "You know Im Wang Biao, yet still try to act tough in front of me? Youre just asking for death!" "You..." Deng Junchao fumed with anger, but he didnt dare act rashly! Because among the thirty or so people present, twenty-five were on Wang Biaos side! The four people lying on the ground, coughing up blood and whimpering in pain, were his own followers. Silver Bay Security Company hadnt suffered such a huge loss since its founding! Wang Biao exhaled a smoke ring, hands in his pockets: "I, Wang Biao, have always conquered others with virtue. Now, if you kneel and call me father three times, I might just spare your life!" "Wang Biao, youre too much!" Deng Junchao said in a lower voice, gripping his electric baton tighter. "Too much?" "Today Ill show you what too much really means!" "Get him for me, take him down!" Wang Biao waved his hand. His minions surged forward, each slapping Deng Junchao, swelling his face entirely. Deng Junchao fell to the ground, his face bruised and swollen, looking like a pigs head. He trembled with rage. But the trembling pulled on his facial muscles, causing him severe pain. "Wo... wo ri..." Deng Junchao squeezed a Huaxia curse through clenched teeth. "You seem like youre not convinced?" "Come on, brothers, let him have a taste!" Wang Biao stepped back a few paces. His followers encircled Deng Junchao, all took out their "little brothers" aimed at him, smirking wickedly, and began to urinate. "Ssss..." The scene was chaotic, with strong-smelling yellow liquid everywhere, creating a stench that filled the air. In one go, overwhelmed by the stench along with his intense humiliation and fury, Deng Junchao fainted. "Ignorant fool, dare to act tough on my turf, really think youre something?" "Werent you just calling for reinforcements? Where are they now?" "Ill tell you, even if they come, I, Wang Biao, will take them all down!" Wang Biao stomped on Deng Junchaos head, cursing loudly, full of arrogance. But at that moment... "Rumble!!!" Ten vans, all skidding to a stop, surrounded the street entirely at the intersection. "Whats going on?" Wang Biao and his minions were all puzzled. The next second, Wang Biao and his group shivered, nearly wetting themselves in fear! Fifteen people per vehicle, a total of one hundred and fifty people. All dressed in security uniforms, one hundred and fifty people slowly stepped out of the vans. Their eyes were vicious, squinting as they approached Wang Biao and his men, wielding iron bars or pipes, some even holding machetes and other deadly weapons! Wang Biaos lips trembled, cold sweat pouring from his forehead, his eyes filled with terror. Oh my god! What is happening? Could it be that just now this guy was calling them for reinforcements? Worri!! "You... you dont... dont come over, I... I warn you!" Wang Biao swallowed hard, gritting his teeth, forcing down his fear, raising his Wolf Fang Club to threaten. But this threat seemed so weak and powerless in front of over a hundred people. "Quite the surprise." "In Celestial Sea, there are still people daring to touch my men?" From behind the crowd of security uniforms, a female voice tinged with anger echoed. The crowd instinctively parted to create a path. A woman in a cheongsam stepped out of a Lamborghini worth thirty-six million, the Girffgreen. The woman held a wine glass filled with red wine in her right hand, walking gracefully like a cat as she approached. Her features were as if sculpted by the gods, incredibly exquisite. Her phoenix eyes were profoundly deep, seemingly filled with stars and the sea. The beauty mark beneath her right eye was like the finishing touch that brought her entire face to life. Her golden, wavy hair, along with her full, red lips, made every gesture brimming with allure. "Is it beautiful?" The woman slowly walked up to one of Wang Biaos men, lightly asking. With that, she extended her snow-white, beautiful leg from beneath her cheongsam, displaying it in front of the lackey, then patted the firm skin on her thigh. The lackey stared intently at the womans snow-white long leg, swallowed, and subconsciously nodded. "Whoosh!" Two sharp sounds of something cutting through the air rang out. Two toothpicks, sharp as iron needles, pierced into his left and right eyes. He clutched his eyes, emitting a squeal like a pig being slaughtered, rolling on the ground incessantly. "Gulp..." Wang Biao and his men instinctively gulped twice, their bodies subconsciously retreating several steps. The womans fierce and ruthless tactics filled them with terror. "Do you think you have the right to look at Ye Bingnings leg?" Ye Bingning sneered, retracting the toothpick from her hand and lifting her toes... "Bang!" The heel of her high heel kicked directly into the lackeys abdomen, sending him flying several meters and crashing into a roadside utility pole. "Who is Wang Biao?" Ye Bingning asked flatly. Wang Biao chuckled awkwardly, raising his hand as if he were a child caught in the wrong. "You dare mess with my people?" "I... I didnt know they were your people, auntie!" Wang Biao was on the verge of tears, feeling a myriad of Divine Beasts charging in his heart. He lowered his head to Ye Bingning, pleadingly, "Big sister, please... please spare me this time, Ill even kneel down and apologize." Why did he lower his head... Because Ye Bingning was barely 150 cm tall in high heels, from a distance she looked like a child... He couldnt understand why a "little girl" had such a commanding aura! In the next second, Wang Biaos vision went black, and he fell to the ground. "Clang." A goblet smashed directly onto his face, embedding many glass shards into his cheeks. Ye Bingning took a lollipop from the purse on her cheongsam, sucked on it twice, then cursed: "Daring to talk to me with your head down, youre really not afraid of death!" In that instant, all her allure vanished, appearing just like an angry middle school girl! "Little Zhou!" "Here!" A burly man over two meters tall rushed over with a fierce look. S~ea??h the novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Lying on the ground, Wang Biao was nearly scared unconscious! Mother, with that physique, one punch and Id be done for! But "Little Zhou" didnt touch him; instead, he bent down, crouching in front of Ye Bingning, like a human sofa. Ye Bingning sat on his back, looked down at Wang Biao, sucked a couple more times on the lollipop, and then cursed: "Daring to look down on my height, youve got guts, dont you? And now? Do you still dare to talk to me with your head down?" Wang Biao, teary-eyed, shook his head: "No... I dont dare..." "What do you mean you dont dare? You just did it!" Ye Bingning put her hands on her hips, eyes wide with anger, "You dare offend me, the boss of Silver Bay Ye Bingning, Ill show you!" "What, youre Big Boss Ye?!!!" Wang Biao exclaimed loudly, his mouth agape enough to fit a rock. The... the "little girl" in front of him was the boss of Silver Bay? Then... then what about Ye Huan? Suddenly, he shivered. It dawned on him, Ye Huans calls for lackeys never truly summoned any! And Silver Bay was a security company, the ones wearing the security uniforms here were clearly the "real underlings of Big Boss Ye"! The little girl before him was indeed the real Big Boss Ye! Oh damn!!! He was deceived by Ye Huan! But his exclamation only intensified Ye Bingnings anger. "How dare you question my identity?" Ye Bingning looked displeased, hopping off Little Zhous back, then slapped Wang Biaos face. With a "slap" sound, she spoke again: "Take him away, bring him back, give him a good interrogation!" "Lets see where he got the courage to mess with my people, to talk to me with his head down, to question my identity!" Ten minutes later, Wang Biao and his twenty-four lackeys were all loaded into the van. Following the roar of an engine, dozens of people drove off in grand fashion. At the same time, a taxi carrying a handsome guy pulled over to the roadside. Ye Huan, with a toothpick in his mouth, stepped out of the car with a head full of black lines: "How could the public order in Celestial Sea be this awful?" Chapter 91: Identity Exposed! Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Identity Exposed!What Ye Huan doesnt know is that his "Boss Ye" identity has been completely exposed! The place where Zhang Huimin lives is an old residential building. "Knock knock knock." After knocking three times, the door quickly opened. Zhang Huimin swiftly pulled Ye Huan into the house, then, like a guilty thief, stuck her head out to look around. Only after confirming that no one was around did she breathe a sigh of relief and slowly close the door. Ye Huan was speechless: "Sister Zhang, youre making me feel like Im sneaking around to have an affair with you." "What nonsense are you talking about!" Zhang Huimins face turned slightly red. She went to the kitchen to pour Ye Huan a cup of hot water, then returned to the living room and handed it to him. In reality, she was indeed worried about being misunderstood by neighbors. Due to neighborhood gossip, the news of Zhang Huimin being widowed and single was well-known to everyone. If a man suddenly visited in the middle of the night, it could quickly stir up a commotion on Golden Sand Street, leading to more pointing fingers and gossip. Luckily, it was late enough now that all the neighbors were asleep. Zhang Huimin breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, Ye Huan grinned and said playfully: "Sister Zhang, if youre so worried about the temperature, could it be that youre really inviting me for an affair?" "But then, Sister Zhang, youve been single for so long, this wouldnt be an affair, itd be free love!" Zhang Huimin blushed to her ears, scolding shyly: "Stop talking nonsense, I... my bathroom pipe burst, I havent finished my shower, so I didnt change clothes!" She was only wrapped in a bathrobe, with her neck and the skin below her knees uncovered. Because she had just taken a hot shower, her pale skin was flushed with a tinged of redness. Ye Huan found it difficult to look away. "Keep staring and you might get a sty!" Zhang Huimin, her face flushed, tied up her hair and sat on the sofa, pretending to scold: "So young and already so dishonest with your eyes, what will you be like in the future?" "Sister Zhang, with such a great figure, Id be missing out if I didnt look," Ye Huan replied carelessly. A great figure? Hearing Ye Huans compliment, Zhang Huimin was secretly pleased, but her expression became even more shy. Seeing Ye Huans bolder gaze, she couldnt help but feel shy. "Xiao Ye, help me check the pipes first. I still have soap suds on me," Zhang Huimin said, blushing. "Okay." Ye Huan reluctantly withdrew his gaze, chuckled, and got up to head to the bathroom. ... "Sister Zhang, this pipe problem is because its been used for too long. After aging, it couldnt withstand the water pressure causing it to burst," Ye Huan said while standing on a stool, repairing the pipe. "Yes, yes, be careful not to fall." Zhang Huimin looked worried, her hands poised in the air. Ye Huan was filled with resignation and didnt reply. Im at least a powerful figure in the Dark World, right? If I manage to fall from a stool while fixing a pipe, then I might as well smash myself to death with tofu! The rusty pipe had a large crack, and water occasionally dripped from it. Ye Huan disassembled a steel wool scrubber, took out the wires, and wove them into three small iron meshes, then used toothpicks to connect the three small meshes together. Removing the precariously hanging iron piece at the crack, Ye Huan inserted the makeshift "Hydraulic Separator" into it. Then he used thick black tape to wrap the crack five times. "Snap." Turning on the switch, the water spurted out, occasionally pushing the tape on the crack to bulge up. But even so, not a drop of water spilled out. "Sister Zhang, the pipe is temporarily fixed, but this is only a temporary measure; itll eventually burst again." "Find some time to go to the hardware store to buy a new pipe to replace it, thats the best solution." Ye Huan patted the pipe, ensuring it was completely secure before turning off the switch. "Okay, thank you. Ill buy one tomorrow, you can come down now." As Ye Huan prepared to hop off the stool, his gaze inadvertently landed in a place it shouldnt have. Zhang Huimin realized something, her face turned slightly red, and her eyes shyly avoided contact. Just then, there was a "squeak squeak squeak" sound from the bathroom corner. Zhang Huimins expression changed dramatically, and she screamed out loud. That shout startled the mouse as well. The mouse squealed, accidentally bumping into the stool leg... "Oh damn!" The stool tilted at a forty-five-degree angle, and Ye Huan cursed as his body uncontrollably leaned forward. "..."

Ye Huan looked earnestly at the Zhang Huimin beneath him, supporting himself with his right hand on the ground. Because his right hand was supporting him, there was a relative distance between them, but some distance or not, they were still almost face-to-face. His left hand was... Zhang Huimins hands were sprawled on the floor tiles, she bit her lips tightly, her eyes turning away shyly, saying irritably: "I... I believe you, but... can you please move away first..." Chapter 92: The Cold CEO’s Little Secret Chapter 92: Chapter 92: The Cold CEOs Little SecretZhang Huimin said, her face full of embarrassment and anger. "Okay, but this is all the mouses fault. Zhang, please believe me!" Ye Huan swallowed and moved his hand away. "You... you go out first." Zhang Huimin lowered her head, avoiding eye contact with Ye Huan. Ye Huan nodded, and quickly dashed out of the bathroom. After running to the living room, Brother Huan took a deep breath and let out a sigh of relief. If he stayed in the bathroom any longer after what happened, it would have been unbearably awkward! In the bathroom, because the robes belt had loosened, Zhang Huimin supported the robe with one hand and braced against the wall with the other to stand up. After tidying up her robe, she returned to the hall. However, the hall was already empty! He left? Zhang Huimin was momentarily stunned, then quickly ran to the window. Sar?h the n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Through the window, she saw Ye Huan waving goodbye and quickly leaving. Zhang Huimin blushed and spat: "Running off helps? I wont let you off that easily!" ... "What a flirt!" Ye Huan sat in the taxis passenger seat, feeling parched. Zhang Huimin was truly captivating. Back at the Penglai Lakefront, after crossing the wooden bridge to reach S-01, Ye Huan was surprised. The S-01 villa was brightly lit on the first floor, but the second-floor bedroom of Liu Tianyun was dark. Hmm? Could that lady Liu Tianyun be waiting for my return home? She says she doesnt care if I look for women, but she cares a lot, doesnt she? Even leaving the lights on while waiting for me to come back? Worried I might cheat with women outside and not come home? Impossible! This is what Zhi Xiang would do, not Brother Huan. How could a good man like me commit such sleazy acts or have affairs?! That woman is so tsundere, clearly captivated by my undeniable charm, yet she wont admit it? But thats okay, Ill use this opportunity to make a baby with her, then I can learn that mysterious martial art from my master! Ye Huan quietly clenched his fist, full of confidence. Tonight, I must conquer Liu Tianyun! On tiptoe, he quietly walked step by step to the front door... Carefully lifted the doors peephole cover, peeking inside... Ye Huan felt like he discovered a new world, his lips twitched, dumbfounded! What... whats going on! The eldest lady of the Liu Family, the famous entrepreneur from Celestial Sea, the cold-blooded business executioner, the icy female CEO. Secretly watching "Garden Babies" at home late at night?!!! The show only loved by three-year-old kids, with "Bakamaka" and "Waibi Babu"?! And... and she was enjoying it, cuddling a KFC family bucket while eating and laughing?!! At this moment, Liu Tianyun had none of the cold CEO demeanor. She wore a thin nightgown, hugged her knees with a KFC family bucket in her arms, watching "Garden Babies" while eating and laughing, like a naive little girl. What... what is this!!! Ye Huan rubbed his eyes, unable to believe what he saw! But disbelief was useless because it was all happening right before his eyes! Ye Huans expression turned into a spectacle. Who knew Liu Tianyun liked this stuff?! Watching "Garden Babies" and not inviting me? I love watching it too, you know! Her hogging it all to herself is utterly shameful, she must be criticized, harshly criticized! Ye Huans eyes rolled slyly, a sly smile on his lips. At this moment, that episode of "Garden Babies" ended. Liu Tianyun placed the family bucket on the coffee table, clasped her hands together, "Goodnight..." Before she finished speaking... Ye Huan turned the key, then forcefully kicked open the door. "BANG!!!" Along with the loud noise of the door being kicked, Ye Huan raised his hands and shouted, "Goodnight, Garden Baby!" Liu Tianyuns smile instantly froze. Then... She let out a hysterical scream, causing the chandelier in the hall to vibrate wildly, as if it might fall at any moment. Even the window panes began to crack. This scream also caused the other villas at Penglai Lakefront to light up, as many people cursed through their windows: "Who is it, making noise in the middle of the night?!" "Causing such a ruckus in the dead of night, and screaming so loudly, are you crazy?!" "Are you a sow, screaming that loud, I can hear you even with sleeping pills!" "..." A round of curses followed, which deepened the "killing intent" on Liu Tianyuns face. "Whats going on!!" The security team from Penglai Lakefront came rushing over, flashlights in hand, electric batons ready, hats barely on. They propped their knees, gasping. Then, looking up, they shivered. My God, President Lius aura is intimidating! Ye Huan patted the shoulder of the security captain and said, "Bro, thanks for your hard work, its just the usual madness of my woman at home, nothing serious." The news of a man living in the S-01 villa at Penglai Lakefront was, of course, well known by the property management. They had already distributed Ye Huans photo to avoid accidentally offending him. The security captain, naturally, recognized Ye Huan. The security captain nodded empathically. He also had a tigress at home, truly unreasonable when she went mad! He didnt expect the renowned President Liu to be like that too! He sighed inwardly, then beckoned and led the security team tactfully away from this "trouble spot". Yet this guys truly bold... Leaving the stunning beauty President Liu alone at home, while he was out flirting? His heart is really big, a normal person with such a wife wouldnt even want to leave the bed! The ancients werent wrong, once obtained, one fails to treasure! Sigh! The security captain sighed and shook his head while lamenting. Yes, he subconsciously confirmed that Ye Huan was "having fun" outside before returning home and angering President Liu... ... "Bang." Closed the house door. Turning around, Ye Huan felt a chilling coldness rushing at him. Liu Tianyun stared daggers at Ye Huan, her face extremely unpleasant. But neither spoke. The whole villa hall was silent. At this moment... The TV sounded, somewhat inappropriately... "Goodnight, Wuxidixi." "Goodnight, Bakabaka." With these sounds... Chapter 93: Why is it so similar! Chapter 93: Chapter 93: Why is it so similar!Liu Tianyuns face turned red in an instant, and the sharp aura she had vanished completely. She quickly picked up the remote and turned off the TV. "Wife, weve been together for so long, do we really need to act like mortal enemies?" Ye Huans mouth curved up as he said with a bright smile, "Besides, its just watching In the Night Garden. Its nothing to be ashamed of. I actually enjoy watching it too..." "Nonsense!" Liu Tianyun cursed through clenched teeth, "Who said I like watching that stuff? The TV was playing automatically. Do you think I wanted to see it?!" She was utterly enraged. She was certain Ye Huan took a call from a woman, which was why she openly watched In the Night Garden in the living room. But whats going on with this bastard? He goes and fools around, and still comes home this late at night? Coming back is one thing, but he timed it perfectly just to catch me when Im having my little secret moment? Now thats a real humiliation! Scoundrel! The saying goes: The more you tolerate, the more it gets under your skin; the more you step back, the more you feel cheated. Liu Tianyun took out pen and paper, wrote out a fine ticket, and slapped it on the coffee table. "Ye Huan returned home without permission. A fine of one million as a deterrent." After reading the ticket, Ye Huans face darkened instantly: "Whats your logic? I cant come home without permission? The house is joint property of the couple!" "You didnt spend a dime or lift a finger for this house, so why are you calling it joint property?" "Besides, even if it were joint property, so what? Dont forget you signed a temporary marriage agreement with me!" "Temporary marriage agreement, page two, article seven, clearly states that if the man maliciously invades the womans privacy, the woman has the right to impose punitive measures at her discretion!" "This fine must be imposed!" Liu Tianyun crossed her arms, with her brows knitted and her face practically saying, "If you dont like it, fight me." "Oh come on, you got it wrong, right? When did I invade your privacy?" "If I say you did, you did!" Ye Huans mouth twisted. That unequal marriage agreement, he really shouldnt have signed it! This is a huge loss now! One million just gone like thatthis is hard to deal with! Clenching his teeth, Ye Huan snatched the remote from Liu Tianyuns hand and turned on the TV. "Its just In the Night Garden, right? If you wont watch, I will!" With a cold hum, Liu Tianyun became puzzled. Seeing that Ye Huan had no intention of mocking or ridiculing, her delicate brows furrowed slightly. Then, as the very childlike sound came from the TV speaker, Ye Huans lips curled slightly. Clearly, he was watching with real interest. Liu Tianyuns beautiful eyebrows furrowed into a straight line. Could it be that she truly misunderstood him...? But what "normal" adult would enjoy watching something meant for three-year-olds like In the Night Garden? Pshaw, normal adults watch it too! Cursing silently in her heart, her pretty face turned red again. "Childish!" Blushing, she flung out these two words, huffed, and turned her head, directly heading to the second floor. As she turned, a slight look of satisfaction emerged on her face. This jerk may have a bad record, but at least he has good taste. Without sophisticated taste, he really couldnt appreciate this animation! The next moment, her face turned a few shades darker. This jerk, who lies without blinking, might just be pretending on purpose... Five minutes later, Liu Tianyun quietly peered out from the second floor. Seeing Ye Huan with a toothpick in his mouth, watching In the Night Garden earnestly, her expression changed. So similar! Really too similar! Why does it look so similar! Liu Tianyun rushed back to her room and quickly took out the old photo under the large In the Night Garden doll. Recalling the times at the orphanage when the "big brother" would take her out at night to sneak a peek through the windows at the nearby residents TVs to watch In the Night Garden... It was just too similar!! Liu Tianyuns eyes filled with disbelief. She hurriedly rushed out of her room and looked down from the hallway towards the living room. "Nice, nice, In the Night Garden is still a classic!" Ye Huan stretched with a smile and then turned off the TV. Noticing the movement on the second floor, Ye Huan looked up there, propped his left hand on the sofa, and struck a rather flamboyant pose, saying with a "deep feeling," "Beauty, spying on a handsome guy so late at night, isnt that inappropriate? Or could it be... you want a deepexchange with me, beauty, but are just too shy to say?" "Get lost!" As the cursing ended, a thunderous door slam echoed again from the second floor. Back in her room, Liu Tianyun gritted her teeth and quickly erased the "ridiculous" thought from her head. Ye Huan is the "big brother"? Impossible! Hes just a pervert, a scoundrel, a liar, a rogue! The "big brother" was so magnificent, so handsome, how could they be the same person! But why are they so alike? Liu Tianyuns delicate brows knit tightly, her expression complex. She remembered that as a child in the orphanage, every night at nine, when other kids were asleep, the "big brother" would always take her over the wall and out of the orphanage, tiptoeing with stones, peeking through others windows to "watch" what the other kids were seeing In the Night Garden. Back then, he would also have a toothpick in his mouth, watching very seriously... Liu Tianyun always found herself fascinated by the "big brothers" serious demeanor, which led her over time to enjoy watching In the Night Garden too. Even though she was an adult now, she couldnt shake the hobby. But because this hobby was somewhat peculiar, she turned it into a private "little secret"... Today, for the first time, this little secret was peered into by someone else. And the one peering not only wasnt put off by In the Night Garden, but rather watched with relish... Why? Why is this! Liu Tianyuns face was an epitome of complex confusion. In her mind, she kept unconsciously overlapping Ye Huan with the "big brother" from her memories. Maybe she should verify it? S~ea??h the ovlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Ask Ye Huan about his childhood? Its the only way... Liu Tianyun nodded to herself, feeling nervous as she opened her bedroom door. No sooner said than done... An exclamation suddenly came from the downstairs bathroom. "Oh my, who put their worn underwear and stockings in my bathroom? Seriously, trying to seduce me in secret isnt anything impressiveif you have the guts, use your charm to seduce me openly, come on, I dare you!" "Oh my, In the Night Garden underwear?" "Quite whimsical, but...I like it!" "..." After a long silence, Liu Tianyuns face turned ashen again, slamming the door as she returned to her room. Due to the sudden burst of a water pipe in the second-floor bathroom, she had no choice but to wash and change in the first-floor bathroom. Plus, thinking that Ye Huan was out "fooling around" and wouldnt return tonight, along with being too tired from work to do laundry, she didnt take her changed clothes out, planning to throw them into the washing machine the next morning. She never expected her intimate clothing would end up in the hands of a "thief". Not only that, but even the pattern was seen by him. Given that perverted wolfs nature, one could easily imagine the fate of those garments... Realizing this, flames of fury almost shot from Liu Tianyuns eyes. But confronting him about it now would be tantamount to admitting she had intentions of "seducing" him? Taking a deep breath, Liu Tianyun suppressed her anger, buried her head under the covers, and lay down on the bed. But her gaze became incredibly determined, as her mind could no longer reconcile the "absolutely detestable" figure with the "magnificent and grand" figure of the "big brother". This kind of pervert, this kind of scoundrel, could never be the "big brother"! At best, his actions somewhat resemble the "big brother," but the two are entirely different inside! If he were the "big brother," pigs would climb trees in queues! Impossible! Chapter 94: Crusade Against Ye Huan! Chapter 94: Chapter 94: Crusade Against Ye Huan! Celestial Sea City, West District. If you randomly ask a pedestrian on the streets of Celestial Sea City where the night market is, they will undoubtedly respond unanimously: West District! As the primary night market area of Celestial Sea City, the West District transforms drastically between daytime and nighttime. During the day, the West District can be described as "sparsely populated." But come nightfall, the West District becomes a dazzling sea of lights and crowds. From social elites to business moguls, down to ordinary white-collar workers, they all choose to come here for entertainment, to alleviate the tremendous stress brought by work. Luxurious KTVs, nightclubs, bars, grooming clubs, and hotels echo endlessly with the roars of men and women and the clinking of glasses. The Triumph Anthem Bar, located at the absolute center of the West District, is the citys only six-star luxury bar, reportedly with a minimum spend of a whopping 100,000! Yet no one knows that behind it stands the citys largest "security group"Silver Bay! Even fewer know that the boss of Silver Bay is just a young girl who has just turned eighteen! "Bring him up!" Ye Bingning said casually as she sat on the sofa in the top-floor private room of the bar, legs crossed, with her left hand swirling a goblet that she occasionally brought to her lips for a sip, while her right hand held a strawberry-flavored lollipop that she sucked on after every sip of wine. The sight of her was bizarre! Yet the overpowering aura she emanated was suffocating. "Get in there!" A thug opened the door to the private room, shouted, and gave Wang Biao a swift kick to the backside. Wang Biao rolled around on the floor like a ball, coming to a stop with his face swollen like a pigs head, nose bleeding onto the floor in drips and drops, clearly having been "handled" sufficiently. "Did you find out why? Why did he fight with Deng Junchao?" Zhou Sha glanced at him coldly, then walked over to Ye Bingning, leaned in, and said, "Boss, this is what he confessed..." "Oh?" Ye Bingning showed a look of interest as she downed the wine in her glass: "In Celestial Sea City, someone dared to impersonate me, Ye Bingning?" "Yes." Zhou Sha nodded, saying, "Weve already interrogated him in the car; Wang Biao confessed quite a bit. According to him, a man has been deceiving several gang figures in the city, including Brother Tiger, by using your name. He also claimed that his fight with our man was under that mans orders..." "Are you sure its true?" Ye Bingning asked coldly. Zhou Sha didnt respond, but instead slapped Wang Biao again. With his face swollen, Wang Biao spoke somewhat unclear: "True... its true, how could I dare deceive you, Boss Ye? Ye... Ye Boss, please believe me!" "This... this matter has nothing to do with me, Wang Biao... I was bewitched by a villain!" "Its all Ye Huans fault. That kid used your name and told us someone wanted to take over Boss Yes territory, which is why I acted. If we had known he was a fake Boss Ye, we would never have acted!" "I was just fooled because Id never seen your face, please understand!!" Wang Biao "cried out," trying his best to express his "injustice," while a gleam of satisfaction flickered in his eyes. Thinking about having been fooled by Ye Huan for so long, he was furious, vowing to make Ye Huan pay a heavy price! Avenging himself was "simple," but he had to first get through Ye Bingning in front of him, otherwise hed be dead before he could avenge himself! Or even... If he could use someone elses knife, use Ye Bingnings blade... Clearly, his words were quite effective. "Crack... crack..." Ye Bingnings face turned grim; her right hand clenched angrily, causing cracks to form on the glass in her hand. As the boss of Silver Bay Security Group, Ye Bingning had long managed three to four hundred security personnel, and this was the first time such a bloody incident occurred. And it was all because her name was impersonated, leading to such an event, absolutely absurd! Ye Bingnings brows were full of gloom, anger faintly flashing beneath her eyes. "Knock knock." Knocking sounded, and a subordinate walked in, saying, "Boss, Brother Tiger and Bai Familys second young masterBai Yu are seeking an audience!" "Brother Tiger, Bai Yu?" Ye Bingnings willow brows furrowed slightly, "Im not familiar with them, am I?" "Boss Ye, theyve also been deceived by that kid Ye Huan!" "Boss, they said someone impersonated you, and theyve come specifically to report and discuss collaboration matters." Wang Biao and the subordinate spoke in unison. Ye Bingning raised an eyebrow, sensing the matter might not be that simple. Tricking Wang Biao was one thing; after all, he was just a higher-ranking thug at most. But in Celestial Sea City, who would be idle enough to impersonate her? And deceive the relatively well-known Brother Tiger and Bai Yu, the second young master of one of the four major familiesthe Bai Family? Ye Bingning waved her jade-like hand: "Let them in." Sarch* The novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Once they entered the room, Bai Yu and Brother Tiger both paused in surprise. Whats going on? Boss Ye is... a little girl still eating candy? What... whats happening! Is it possible that shes outwardly a candy-eating little girl but secretly the infamous murderer on the streetsthe female demon? Yes, it must be that! Thinking this, Brother Tiger showed great respect and bowed ninety degrees to Ye Bingning: "Boss Ye, seeing you is far better than hearing about you; your all-encompassing aura makes me, Tiger, want to submit." "Youre not worthy." Ye Bingnings mere three words caused Brother Tiger to stumble, nearly falling flat on the floor. Brother Tigers mouth twitched, looking extremely awkward. "Enough nonsense, what do you want?" "Hello Boss Ye, Im Bai Yu, Bai Familys second young master." Bai Yu smiled gentlemanly and then pulled a rose from the pocket of his suit jacket, dropping to one knee and slowly offering the rose with one hand, "Miss Ye, you truly possess unparalleled beauty and extraordinary temperament..." Before he could finish babbling... "Smack!" The slap sent Bai Yu straight to the ground. Ye Bingning showed disdain as she took a bottle of 86 Lafite from the cabinet, washed her hands, and sat coldly back on the sofa: "If youre here to waste my time with nonsense, I hardly need to spell out the consequences, do I?" With that, she let out a cold laugh, her gaze piercingly sharp. Many subordinates immediately charged into the private room wielding weapons, glaring fiercely, surrounding Bai Yu and Brother Tiger. The two of them shuddered instantly. Bai Yus heart was full of resentment. What kind of world is this! He was, after all, the young master of a major family, treated as an honored guest everywhere. And now? After encountering Ye Huan, he was beaten by neighborhood security guards, and now this little girl slapped him!? Who could stand it? Bai Yu stood up with a gloomy face. But when confronted with knives, he held back. "Bo... Boss Ye, youre misunderstanding, Im here to discuss a collaboration with you." "Previously, under my orders, Brother Tiger and his men were sent to trouble Ye Huan, but upon meeting him, Brother Tiger didnt dare act." "Because Ye Huan claimed to be Silver BayBoss Ye himself." "Brother Tiger is in this line of work, how could he not have heard your name? He was scared stiff on the spot, and I didnt dare act recklessly, so we let it go temporarily." "But I know his background, just a pauper, unable to match your extraordinary aura, so I investigated secretly." "After thorough investigation, we finally confirmed he is an imposter, which is why weve come to report and discuss collaboration plans with you, to fight Ye Huan together!" Chapter 95: Wife, we’ve been robbed, a female thief! Chapter 95: Chapter 95: Wife, weve been robbed, a female thief!Ye Bingnings gaze was as sharp as a knife: "How do you want to cooperate?" "Since you know he is impersonating you, you must be planning to deal with him." "I want to ask you..." "When you deal with him, dont hold back, take him out and finish him off!" "I am willing to pay a reward of ten million!" Saying this, Bai Yu took out a bank card from the inner pocket of his jacket and offered it with both hands: "Heres the deposit, five million." "Oh?" Ye Bingning took the card, her face showing an interested expression: "For an ordinary person it costs a million for Bai Shao to take action? Is Bai Shao so generous?" "I dont think his identity is that simple, right?" "Could it be that youre trying to play tricks on me, Ye Bingning?" As she said this, she licked her lips, her gaze instantly turning cold, resembling an extremely dangerous femme fatale. She was a completely different person from the little girl she appeared to be before. Bai Yu broke into a cold sweat on his forehead. How could this woman, who looked only eighteen, have such a presence? Swallowing hard, Bai Yu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "Boss Ye, to be honest, I want revenge on Ye Huan because he is the husband of the Liu Familys eldest daughter, Liu Tianyun. Ive been pursuing Liu Tianyun for over ten years, and he took away my prize. How can I stand it?" "Slap!" Ye Bingning swung her hand out again, and Bai Yus face instantly swelled, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. "If you try to play tricks on me again, Ill take your life." A fierce glint flashed in Ye Bingnings eyes as she sat back on the sofa: "Ive already decided to kill him. Daring to impersonate me, Ye Bingning, even if hes the elder of the Liu Family, Ill make him wish he were dead!" With that, she looked at Zhou Sha: "Gather all the brothers. If we dont establish dominance soon, it seems any cat or dog will dare to oppose our Silver Bay Group in Celestial Sea City!" "Yes!!!" Zhou Sha and the group of subordinates shouted in unison, their momentum overwhelming. This tiger-wolf momentum was terrifying! Bai Yu and Brother Hu both swallowed hard, looking utterly frightened. Sear?h the N?velFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. ... Walking out of the Victory Chant Bar, Bai Yu spat out a mouthful of blood, his expression still extremely angry. Originally, he presented a rose, just momentarily attracted by Ye Bingnings figure and looks, especially since she seemed to be about eighteen, absolutely fresh. Once caught as a girlfriend, life would surely be enjoyable. So, he wanted to show graceful elegance and take Ye Bingning down in one go. After all, such noble elegance is absolutely overwhelming for teenage girls! But, she appeared to be an immature girl with a lollipop, yet deep down, she was a vicious femme fatale! But rejecting would have been fine, why hit me in the face? He was furious, but only dared to be silently indignant. "Ahu, when the time comes, bring your people to Tianyun International. Once Ye Huan is beaten to a pulp, drag him away to the suburbs, chop off his five limbs, bury him, and then pee on his grave!" Bai Yus expression was hideous: "I want him to neither live nor die, and even in death, he wont find peace!" "Fine, Ill pee on his grave every day if it means I can relieve my anger!" Brother Hus arm veins were visible, furious upon learning that Ye Huan was pretending to be Boss Ye. In the next moment, a suggestive smile appeared on his lips: "Bai Shao, Ive just got a batch of new goods from the dark web, called Spring Stone Powder. Dissolve it in water for a woman to drink, and in five minutes shell turn into a beast." "If youre interested, I can help you take down Liu Tianyun then." Hearing this, Bai Yus expression changed fantastically. If this thing works as Ahu said, then wouldnt he be able to get Liu Tianyun into bed right after Ye Bingning kills Ye Huan? Its simply killing two birds with one stone, a great deal! And theres an opportunity the day after tomorrow, isnt there? Bai Yu let out an evil smile: "Ahu, an old friend of mine is coming to Huaxia the day after tomorrow to discuss cooperation with Liu Tianyun. If you handle this well, therell be good benefits for you!" Ahu knowingly nodded, grinning wickedly. Bai Yu patted his shoulder and then drove away in his car. Thinking of Ye Huans miserable state before dying, filled with "regret" on his face, he couldnt help but laugh out loud. Ye Huan, opposing me, Bai Yu, is the biggest mistake of your life! I have ten thousand ways to make your life hell! Not only will I ruin you, but Ill also take your wife, haha! ... "Honey, I suspect theres a thief in our house, a female thief!" "Last night when I was showering, I found a set of womens intimate clothing on the washing machine, with a faint fragrance. Wasnt that meant to lure me?" "Why do I say it was meant to lure me? Because that clothing has In the Night Garden prints, and I happen to love In the Night Garden. Luring me with what I like, that female thiefs behavior is truly shameful, truly despicable!" "Also, why am I sure theres a thief? Because we signed a temporary marriage agreement, right? My activity area is only on the first floor, and although you didnt specify, I believe you wouldnt put something so personal on my washing machine without telling me, right?" Sitting in the drivers seat of the Rolls-Royce Phantom, Ye Huan chuckled. Liu Tianyuns fists clenched instantly, her face turning livid. But she gritted her teeth and suppressed her anger. When signing the temporary marriage agreement, she clearly stated she wouldnt interfere with his living space, namely the first floor. If she confronted Ye Huan now or vented her anger, wouldnt that mean admitting she snuck into his bathroom? That would only embarrass herself! "Honey, why arent you speaking? Was it really yours?" "How could it be mine? Am I so childish to wear underwear with such prints? And shut your mouth, youre so annoying!" Liu Tianyun retorted angrily, rolling down the car window and turning her head to look at the scenery. Ye Huan let out a "disappointed" sigh, saying: "Alas, I thought I found a kindred spirit, especially since my boxers have In the Night Garden prints." "You... pervert." Liu Tianyun cursed through gritted teeth, but her face turned red. This rogue, clearly a super rogue, yet his taste is so refined. In the Night Garden isnt appreciated by just anyone. At this moment, "Bakamaka, yippee yippee." The In the Night Garden ringtone played. Liu Tianyun blushed again, quickly answered the phone, then furrowed her brows slightly: "Already here?" "Assistant?" "Hm, then you entertain them first. Well be at the company soon." With that, she hung up the phone and threw a "you know" look at Ye Huan. Brother Huans mouth twitched, wanting to jump out of the car. But it was too late. "You, come meet a client with me in a bit!" Chapter 96: Cooperation Canceled, Get Out! Chapter 96: Chapter 96: Cooperation Canceled, Get Out!"Whats the situation? Didnt they say we would meet tomorrow? How come they sent an assistant over today?" Liu Tianyun asked in the elevator at Tianyun International. "President, Mr. Sorrel said hes been in Huaxia for a while, secretly assessing Tianyun International. That million-dollar deal with the Finske Europe was personally signed by him." "The purpose of his visit today is to understand Meiyings specific product information." "As for their president, Walker Finske, hell be taking a private plane over tomorrow to formally finalize the cooperation contract." When Tang Yao mentioned the name "Sorrel," there was a clear flash of disgust in her eyes. Liu Tianyun nodded. Ye Huan, on the other hand, rubbed his chin and pondered for a moment. Walker Finske? Isnt that the president of the Finske Conglomerates European division? Not long ago, I asked their PatriarchStephen Finsketo help complete the SSS+S sales task. It seems this Walker must have noticed something from those two sales tasks. He appears to be coming to discuss cooperation, but in reality, he wants to win my favor. After all, the European division of the Finske Conglomerate is the second in both financial scale and development among its five major divisions. Tianyun Internationals scale is far less than one percent of theirs, and even if a cooperation is to be carried out, just sending a business representative would suffice; theres no need for the president to come personally. ... "Mr. Sorrel, its a pleasure to meet you." Walking into the presidents office, Liu Tianyun slightly nodded in greeting. Sitting on the couch was a blond, blue-eyed man with slicked-back greasy hair, wearing an expensive limited edition Givenchy XB-Zirs custom suit, and shiny Armani crocodile leather shoes. He was Sorrel, the assistant to the president of the Finske Conglomerates European division. "President Liu..." Sorrel lifted his head, and upon seeing Liu Tianyuns appearance, his eyes lit up, "Oh, my dear President Liu, you are the most beautiful Eastern beauty Ive ever seen." "Thank you for the compliment." Liu Tianyun replied lightly, her brow slightly furrowed. She was very displeased with Sorrels aggressively invasive gaze! But, since the other party was here for cooperation talks, she didnt show it. Sorrel crossed his legs, his lecherous gaze constantly scanning Liu Tianyun and Tang Yao, occasionally nodding with satisfaction. Before coming to Huaxia, he was wondering why President Walker insisted on cooperating with Tianyun International and even instructed him to be courteous, ensuring Tianyun International wouldnt be dissatisfied. How strange! The Finske Europe primarily operates several large financial companies and banks under the family, which have nothing to do with Tianyun Internationals main business. In terms of scale, not only can they easily crush Tianyun International, but even the Liu Group behind it wouldnt stand a chance! As for bringing in a batch of Meiying cosmetics to help Tianyun International pave the way for European sales channels, while theres nothing wrong with it, doing so would be like handing over the Finske Conglomerates networking resources as charity to Tianyun International. Going to such an extent, yet the president still instructed him to avoid any dissatisfaction from Tianyun International? It seems President Walker has ulterior motives, haha! Liu Tianyun, such an Eastern beauty, is far superior to the stars of Huaxias film industry. With her beauty, shes more than qualified to become President Walkers mistress. But does a mistress deserve such treatment? To stress multiple times not to let her be dissatisfied? President Walker is too kind. Can a mistress really cause any trouble? Its utterly ridiculous! Sorrel shook his head in disdain, then fixed his gaze on Tang Yao. Sear?h the N?vel?ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Liu Tianyuns secretary, though not as beautiful as Liu Tianyun, is still a top-tier Eastern beauty, entirely fitting for himself. After all, its unlikely President Walker would take both? With Walker taking Liu Tianyun, it would be only natural for him as Walkers assistant to take Liu Tianyuns secretary! Thinking this, his lecherous expression intensified, and his gaze became even less concealed. The two women instinctively took several steps back, anger showing on their faces. Tang Yaos eyes were filled with disgust. Earlier, while receiving Sorrel at the presidents office, she noticed Sorrels restless eyes and lecherous words, and he even attempted to assault her. In response, Tang Yao avoided him entirely and found an excuse to go to the first floor to welcome Liu Tianyun and Ye Huan. At this moment, Sorrel took a sip of hot tea and spoke again, "President Liu, although I have represented Finske Europe in signing a procurement agreement with you worth ten million, the scale of our future cooperation will definitely far exceed this price, you must understand." "Of course." "As long as President Liu understands, then its necessary for me to have a detailed understanding of the Meiying series of products." Sorrels gaze turned meaningful, looking at Tang Yao, lecherously saying, "Could you join me for lunch and then a movie and explain the situation in detail?" Upon hearing this, Tang Yao instinctively took several more steps back. The two women were livid. As adults, and having been in the business world for years, how could they not understand Sorrels intentions? "Mr. Sorrel." Suppressing her anger, Liu Tianyun stepped aside, pointing to Ye Huan, "This is my husband, Ye Huan, and he is also the creator of the Meiying product formulas. If you want the details, talk to him!" "Talk to him? Husband?" Sorrel was taken aback, then his eyes widened with anger. President Walkers woman actually has a husband? Unbelievable! At this moment, Ye Huan picked up a toothpick, rubbed his chin in thought, and said, "Buddy, youre consumed by lust, weak and deficient in energy, you wont live long!" "..." After a long silence. Coming back to his senses, Sorrel was furious, "Kid, are you cursing me?" "Curse you? Im stating a fact. Youll drop dead within three days." Ye Huan grinned, his expression playful, "Trust me, Im a professional." "You..." Sorrel was infuriated, looking at Liu Tianyun and angrily asked, "President Liu, let me confirm, this disrespectful guy is your husband?" "Of course." Liu Tianyun remained calm, sitting back in the presidents chair, and sneered, "Mr. Sorrel, our Huaxia medicine is profound and extensive, and my husband is an outstanding traditional medicine practitioner. I recommend you get a thorough check-up at the hospital to avoid suddenly dropping dead in less than three days; it would be a huge loss." Sorrel stood up in rage, slamming the table while shouting: "Liu Tianyun, what do you mean? Dont think just because our president fancies you, you think youre something special!" "Youre nothing but a pretty face and a nice body. What are you being arrogant about? To put it bluntly, youre just our presidents mistress!" "Cooperating with you is giving you face. Without this cooperation, you can kiss your European dreams goodbye!" "Ill be frank, I want your secretary to join me at a hotel to rest, or else the cooperation is off!" Saying this, he was stunned in the next second. "Cooperation is off, get out!" Chapter 97: Within 10 minutes, strip him of his heir position! Chapter 97: Chapter 97: Within 10 minutes, strip him of his heir position!Liu Tianyun pointed at the office door, scolding harshly. Her face was as cold as frost, her eyes seemingly about to shoot fire. Sorrels face was twisted with rage. As the assistant to the president of Finske Europe, where wasnt he respected? Even when he traveled, finance ministers from various countries accompanied him, eager to please. And now, he was actually yelled at by a mere "mistress"? Unbelievable! Sorrels face was filled with anger, wanting to explode, but he didnt dare. After all, Liu Tianyun was the "woman the president favored". Moreover, the president had repeatedly instructed him to complete the cooperation, otherwise, hed be fired. Thinking of this, Sorrel suppressed his anger, speaking in a deep voice: "President Liu, are you sure you want to give up this cooperation opportunity?" "Do you know how many people are begging to cooperate with us?" "I said, as long as you let your secretary..." Before he could finish. "Get out!" Liu Tianyun pointed outside, shouting coldly, her demeanor calm and seemingly indifferent to the cooperation. Sorrel showed a furious expression: "Liu Tianyun, what gives you the right to yell at me? Do you know who I am!" "Arent you just a little assistant, thinking your status is high?" Ye Huan said, and Sorrel was momentarily stunned, suddenly grabbing his collar, a finger pointing at him, shouting loud: "Little assistant? Who are you talking about? Do you know my status?" "I handle millions in minutes, and the funds I manage each year go up to hundreds of billions!" "Im the assistant to the President of Finske EuropeWalker Finske!" "Do you know Walkers status? He has a high chance of inheriting the Finske Conglomerate, the second heir!" "Im his assistant, do you know that?" Ye Huan shrugged, "confused," saying: "Still just a little assistant?" "You... Ill say it again, Im Walkers assistant!" Sorrel was furious, his face so dark it seemed it could drip water. "Being Walkers assistant doesnt change the fact youre an assistant. Who are you pretending to be, is Walker your dad and youre his son?" Ye Huan helplessly shrugged, then said meaningfully: "By the way, let me tell you something, I dont like people grabbing my collar or pointing fingers at me, youd better think twice..." "Insulting President Walker and threatening me? Kid, youre asking for it!" Sorrel didnt say another word, he swung his fist directly at Ye Huan. The two women changed their expressions, trying to stop Sorrel. But it was too late... "Bang!" A dull sound was heard. The two women were stunned. Ye Huan not only wasnt hit... But also... Sorrels eyes widened like eggs, bent over, standing still. Ye Huan patted his shoulder seriously, "I warned you, why didnt you listen?" As soon as the words fell... "Puh!" He spat out a mouthful of blood, and Sorrel flew out clutching his abdomen, creating a big dent in the rear wall. Ye Huan slowly approached him, saying: "Buddy, may I ask, which finger were you using to point at me just now?" Sear?h the ovelFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Kid, how dare you... dare to hit me? I... I absolutely will... will not let you off!" Sorrel clutched his abdomen, his face dark, with blood still lingering at the corners of his mouth. "Wrong answer to the question, dont blame me." Ye Huan helplessly spread his hands, then smiled and lifted his tiptoe. Sorrels face changed dramatically. Finally, in his fearful eyes... Ye Huans tiptoe landed on the palm. "Crack." The sound of bones breaking was heard. Sorrel screamed miserably like a pig being slaughtered, all the bones in his left hand having been broken. He wailed continuously on the floor. While wailing, he somehow found the strength to swear. "You really have guts, you really... really do!!" "Just wait, just... wait! I will definitely not let you off!!!" "Finske Conglomerate will never cooperate with you!!" Sorrel rolled on the floor, his features twisted with intense pain. Liu Tianyun looked calm: "I said we wont cooperate with you." But the next second, Sorrels words changed her face drastically. "No cooperation? Do you think its over just because were not cooperating?" "Dare to hit me, I will not only cancel our cooperation, but Ill use every resource to ruin you!" "I know you, youre from one of the four big families in Celestial Sea City, the Liu Family, right?" "Let me tell you, get a coffin ready for the Liu Family as well. Our Finske Conglomerate wants your lives!" Seeing Liu Tianyuns face growing uglier, Sorrels face twisted as he let out an extremely harsh laugh. At this moment, Ye Huan was bewildered: "Do you have that much power? Or is the European branch of the Finske Conglomerate that badass?" "Does it matter to you? You just need to know, taking down one of your so-called four big families is a piece of cake," Sorrel sneered coldly, clutching his hand as he stood up. "If you dont believe me, ask your wife." "Wife, is this guy really that badass?" Ye Huan asked with a serious face. Liu Tianyuns face was ashen, unable to utter a single word. Obviously, she was tacitly agreeing with Sorrels statement. The Finske Conglomerate is a colossal global conglomerate; their assets combined with their investments reach as high as one trillion US Dollars! Just picking twenty African countries wouldnt equate to their wealth! Once in the Middle East, a country became extremely wealthy through oil. The Crown Prince had a huge falling out with an heir of the Finske Conglomerate over a woman. When he inherited the throne, the first thing he did was to suppress Finskes assets in his country, but the Finske Conglomerate simply lifted a finger to orchestrate a petroleum crisis that shocked the world. International oil prices became cheaper than paper. Ultimately, throwing the country back to the Stone Age! The so-called royal family of that country was completely wiped out in the chaos that followed. Just a slight move by the Finske Conglomerate can tear apart so-called royal families, let alone destroy one of Huaxias so-called four big families, the Liu Family! Not to mention moving a finger, even a fart could easily destroy the Liu Family with Finske Conglomerate! Liu Tianyuns face grew uglier, bringing Sorrel even greater joy in his heart. He sat back down on the sofa, speaking in a condescending tone: "Liu Tianyun, its not like I cant give you a chance!" "Like I said before, just let your secretary keep me company a few times, make me happy, then everything is negotiable." "President, maybe... maybe I..." Tang Yao lowered her head, her face extremely complex. She didnt want Tianyun International or the Liu Family to suffer complete destruction because of her. "No!" Liu Tianyun pointed to the door, angrily said, "Sorrel, Ill say it again, get out!" The verbal abuse resounded, but Sorrel was not angry; instead, he appeared even more relaxed. He said with a half-smile: "Since Secretary Tang has agreed, thats naturally very good, especially good!" "But, you know, good things come in pairs, right President Liu?" "Let me be direct, our President Walker wants you! You just clean yourself up, wait for him to tire of you, and then let me have a few rounds." "This way, with one president taking another and the assistant taking the secretary, isnt it just double joy, as you Huaxia people say? Hahaha!" He burst into laughter. These words completely ignited the boundless anger in Liu Tianyun. In over twenty years of her life, this was her most furious moment, without a doubt! If there were a knife nearby, she would surely stab without hesitation! Sorrel was unconcerned, his face becoming even more relaxed, his eyes ogling Liu Tianyun obscenely. In his view. Liu Tianyuns anger was worthless. Her anger, even her familys anger, meant nothing before the Finske Conglomerate! Next, there was only one person left to deal with... Sorrel stood from the sofa again, walking towards Ye Huan, a look of amusement on his face: "Kid, President Walker is the second-in-line heir of the Finske Conglomerate, the woman he wants, no other man deserves to have!" "Also, in the past, anyone who dared to lay a hand on me, Sorrel, I would personally take their life!" "But today, Im giving you a chance to live!" "Divorce your wife and personally deliver her to our presidents bedroom." "As long as youre willing, Ill give you one million US Dollars!" "Of course, if youre not willing, Ill use that million to hire a hitman organization, make you wish you were dead rather than alive!" He jammed his hands in his pockets, pulled out a bank card, threw it on the floor, and with a mocking look: "Lick my shoe 10 times, then you can take the money upfront." "Are you done?" Ye Huan spoke up. Sorrel let out a comfortable breath, nodded: "Im done, you can lick now, go on..." Before he could finish. Sorrel felt a strong gust suddenly crashing towards his face. The next second... "Smack!!!" A blood-red handprint abruptly appeared on his face! The slap was so loud, it echoed through the entire floor, causing the surrounding window glass to tremble! This sharp sound sent a chill deep into the hearts of the other employees on the same floor! Ye Huan took out his phone, dialed a number, and then spoke again. His words carried an irresistible authority! "Within ten minutes, strip Walker Finske of the presidency of the European branch!" "And also, revoke his rights of inheritance to the conglomerate!" "Then, dismiss Walkers assistant Sorrel, and freeze all his assets, banning him from any employment opportunities!" Chapter 98: Expelled from the Family! Chapter 98: Chapter 98: Expelled from the Family!As soon as the words were spoken, Ye Huan hung up the phone. "..." The entire office fell silent. Even Sorrels cries of anguish stopped. Did I hear that right? This... this person called not only to fire me, but also to freeze all my assets? Moreover, to strip Walker, the president, of his position as the Finske Conglomerates heir and the president of the European division? "Pfft." Unable to hold back, Sorrel, lying on the ground, burst into laughter, pounding the floor. He even momentarily forgot the intense pain in his body because it was "too funny." The content of the phone call naturally shocked Liu Tianyun and Tang Yao. What kind of international joke is this?! Each generation of the Finske Conglomerate has only five heirs, and all five, at the age of eighteen, take over as heads of various divisions to test their abilities. And ranked according to hierarchy: Asia as the number one heir; Europe as number two; America as number three; Africa as number four; Oceania as number five; Each year, the Finske Conglomerate reviews the operations of its major divisions and adjusts the heir rankings. It is said that Walker, the president of the European division, has been greatly recognized by the conglomerate and is soon expected to be promoted from number two to number one heir. If nothing goes wrong, he will smoothly take over the vast Finske Conglomerate in a few years! At that time, controlling such a massive Finske Conglomerate, he would become one of the most powerful people in the world; his power would be overwhelming and unparalleled! And Ye Huan dismissed him from the European division with a phone call and stripped him of his heir qualifications? How is that possible! Both women furrowed their delicate brows and shook their heads. Ye Huan, once again, boasting, getting carried away! Then Sorrel stopped laughing and looked mockingly at him: "Kid, who do you think you are, huh?" "Do you think youre the US president, or maybe the US presidents father?" "And stripping Walker of his conglomerate heir qualification? Can you draft first before bragging?" "What a jumping jack!" With that, he suddenly let out a wail. Ye Huan grabbed his collar, lifted him, and with a playful expression said, "Whether his heir qualification will be stripped, youll know soon enough. As for you, prepare for all your assets to be frozen and never recover in this lifetime..." "You... what do you want!" "..." "Ahhh!!!" Sorrel was kicked down Tianyun Internationals company stairs and fell face-first, his cries of agony quite pitiful. Sorrel pointed at the Tianyun International company lobby and roared in anger: "Just wait, Ill make you all pay with your lives!!!" Ye Huan raised an eyebrow and waved his hand: "Go!" ... In the boundless sea of the East above Huaxia. A private jet emblazoned with the Finske Conglomerates logo was flying toward Celestial Sea City in Huaxia. In the cabin, classical Western music played, and the slow tempo music seemed to slow down the flow of time along with the slow steps of the maids. Walker Finske looked calmly at the newspaper, holding a cup of Blue Mountain coffee. With each page turned, he took a sip, his actions extremely gentlemanly and elegant, resembling the offspring of ancient European nobility. Beside him stood two French maids holding trays. The maids would refill the coffee every time the porcelain cup in his hand ran dry. At this moment, the cup was empty, and as the maid refilled the coffee, she softly said, "Young Master, we are expected to arrive at Celestial Sea City tonight." Walker replied calmly, turning a page of the newspaper, "After arriving in Celestial Sea City, well rest for a night. If we go tonight, we might disturb that esteemed persons rest." "Young Master, youre about to become the head of the Finske Conglomerate. Is there any reason to be so respectful to this person?" The maid couldnt help but ask. Walker shot her a cold glance, "Dont ask what you shouldnt." "Young Master." The maid took a deep breath, exasperated, "Youve already given him a great honor by going to see him in Celestial Sea City. What does he have that deserves such respect from you?" "Smack!" A loud slap resounded. The maid covered her reddened cheek and fell to the ground, looking aggrieved. The other maid kept her head down, trembling. "I told you, dont ask what you shouldnt! That esteemed person is not someone we can discuss!" Walkers face turned livid, and he took a handkerchief from the tray held by the other maid, wiping his hands as if they were dirty, and then casually tossed it on the ground. At this moment, another maid dressed in Gothic attire rushed over, her face anxious. "Young master, your phone call!" Walker frowned slightly: "Didnt I say that all work arrangements are canceled these days? Why is there still a call?" The maid shook her head, panting: "This... this call is from home." "From home?" Walker shivered suddenly, an intense unease rising in his heart. Could it be... He knew Sorrels temperament very well, always thinking of himself as superior, enjoying causing trouble everywhere... That bastard... Suppressing his anger, Walker frowned tightly, thinking carefully. He had repeatedly instructed Sorrel to be humble at Tianyun International, ensuring not to provoke any dissatisfaction from the other side... Perhaps there really is an urgent matter at home? Forcing himself to remain calm, Walker took the phone and answered the call. On the other end, the icy voice of the conglomerates controller, the patriarch of the Finske familyStephen Finske, made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave. "Effective immediately, Walker Finske, you are stripped of your inheritance rights and expelled from the family!" "Beep" The call had been disconnected. Stephens words were like a bolt from the blue, causing Walkers legs to give way. Ex...expelled from the family? He collapsed to the ground, clutching a chair, and cried out with all his might, "Full speed to Celestial Sea, prepare the parachute!!!!!!" ... In front of Tianyun Internationals company entrance. Sorrel clutched his abdomen, wailing miserably on the ground. "One, two! Harder!" Ye Huan, with a toothpick in his mouth and hands in his pockets, shouted a loud slogan. Security deputy captain Wang Tiezhu held an electrified baton, delivering a flurry of blows to Sorrel. The scene turned particularly bloody, causing passersby to scatter. "Werent you going to have us killed? How did it turn out like this?" Ye Huan smirked, mocking. "I... I..." Sorrel trembled as he spoke. "What do you want to say? Keep hitting him..." Before Ye Huan could finish... "Stop it now!" Liu Tianyun ran over and snatched the baton from Wang Tiezhus hand. Her face anxious. Originally, she intended to take advantage of Sorrels preparations to move against the Liu family by quickly notifying them to transfer assets and preserve their strength for a comeback. Ideally, they could stall until Walker arrived the next day, allowing for some negotiation and buying more time. Seeing through the window that Ye Huan was having Sorrel beaten, she nearly went mad with urgency, running down quickly. Throwing Sorrel out of the company would have sufficed. But Ye Huans beating would undoubtedly multiply Sorrels resentment and anger geometrically... If truly pushed to his limits, he might just call Walkers president and immediately advance the plan to destroy the Liu family, losing valuable time for asset transferthat would be the end! The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Liu Tianyun, infuriated, spoke up: "Ye Huan, what exactly are you doing? Is throwing him out of the company not enough? Why beat him!" Ye Huan, noticing her concerns, smiled: "Wife, you dont have to fear him, or that WalkerIm guessing hes already received notification of being stripped of his inheritance by now." "You..." Liu Tianyun, exasperated, helplessly rubbed her forehead. sea??h th N??elFir.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. A single phone call stripping Walker of his inheritance. Only Ye Huan could boast like this. "You all just wait!" By now, Sorrel had run to a distance, shouting, "I want the Liu family and Tianyun International to be finished tonight!!!" After shouting, he took out his phone to make a call: "Move five billion in cash, target the Liu Group, and along the way, take down Tianyun International in Huaxias Celestial Sea City!!" Upon hearing this, Liu Tianyuns face paled drastically. Its over. Alas. The time to transfer the funds was lost. She sighed, crouching powerlessly to the ground, burying her head in her legs. Just then... "What, I dont have authority? Impossible, stop joking!!!" "What? Ive been fired?!" "What! All my assets have been frozen, the conglomerate has started a commercial crime investigation against me, and notified the entire industry to blacklist me?!" "How is that possible!!!" Chapter 99: Begging for Forgiveness Chapter 99: Chapter 99: Begging for ForgivenessSorrel shouted into the phone in a panic. But the call on the other end had already been hung up. He stood there dumbfounded, the phone slipping from his grip unnoticed. Dismissed by the Finske European division? Assets frozen? Corporate ban? Commercial investigation? As the CEO assistant, how could he not have bent the rules for others, accepted benefits, or taken kickbacks? Not to mention too much, but thered definitely be billions! Once this investigation is over, with such a huge amount involved, wouldnt he spend the rest of his life in prison!!! Moreover, not to mention a commercial investigation, those other issues already mean his life is ruined, his future destroyed!! "Ive already told you, in ten minutes, youll be finished." Ye Huans words were like a bolt from the blue, exploding in Sorrels ears. Sorrel shivered, looking at Ye Huans faintly smiling expression, his lips began to tremble uncontrollably. Wasnt it just now, with that phone call, that within ten minutes he deprived Walker of his inheritance as CEO, and got him dismissed, with assets frozen? It was that call that plunged him into an endless abyss? How... how could it be? But if not him, then... then who else! Liu Tianyuns... this husband, just what is his identity!? At this moment... A blond man came running from afar. He had accidentally gotten caught on a tree while parachuting down, leaving his face covered with scratches from the branches. Running, he cried and shouted loudly: "Sir, please spare me, I beg you!!!" Everyones eyes immediately turned to him. All eyes were wide open. This man... isnt this the frequently seen-on-TV, the president of the Finske European divisionWalker Finske? Why... why is he crying and pleading? Whats going on! Seeing Walker in this state, Sorrels eyes darkened, and he collapsed to the ground, barely able to breathe. He knew Walker had been doomed by him! Walkers identity as an heir and the president of the European division had all been stripped away by Ye Huans call! He finally understood, Walker made him humble himself and avoid offending Tianyun International not because of some "underground mistress," but... but because of Liu Tianyuns husband! Walkers purpose... was to curry favor with this man! Looking at Ye Huan, Sorrel now had no disdain or scorn in his eyes. Instead... deep fear! "Who... who are you?" Sorrel asked with a trembling voice. Ye Huan smiled, pulling out his phone and twirling it in his hand. Suddenly, an incident from last month surfaced in Sorrels mind. During the giant quarterly meeting of the Finske Conglomerate last month, when Patriarch Stephen was in the middle of his speech, he suddenly received a call and became extremely agitated. Right afterward, he ordered Finskes Asian division to purchase a batch of Tianyun International goods worth 20 million... Could it be that the call was... from this man? This man, could he... command such immense respect from the Patriarch? "Gulp." Sorrels throat moved with difficulty, his cold sweat soaking his collar. ... Walker had already run over from afar, hugging Ye Huans leg, kneeling, and crying out loud: "Sir, please spare me this time, I swear Ill severely punish Sorrel!!" No need to guess, he knew that Sorrel offended this man, whom even grandfather Stephen held in utmost respect. Its said hes a member of the Dark World... that Lord!!! Not to mention himself offending him, even the entire Finske Conglomerate couldnt afford to offend him, yet his assistant dared to act so recklessly? He hated, hated Sorrel with a passion. Upon knowing he was expelled from the family instantly, Walker understood that the Finske Conglomerate was severing ties with him! The fact that this man personally intervened indicated how angry he was, and the Finske family was striving to quell his wrath! He so wanted to slap Sorrel, the instigator of this mess, dead, to vent his anger. But now, the most crucial thing was to gain this mans forgiveness! Walker shuffled back a few steps on his knees, then began kowtowing heavily, crying and shouting loudly: "Sir, I beg you, I accept the removal from my position as president and my inheritor status." "But Im begging you, truly begging you, please dont let my grandfather expel me from the family!" "I shouldnt have sent Sorrel, that bastard, that idiot over here. Please forgive me, I will definitely not let him off!" Ye Huan looked at him indifferently, without making a sound. Everyone was utterly dumbfounded, their mouths agape as if they could fit a stone inside. This... this second heir to the globally renowned colossal and ancient conglomerate, was actually kowtowing for Ye Huans forgiveness? "..." The whole place was silent, and everyone was thrown into disarray by the sudden turn of events. Even Liu Tianyun, who usually wore a cold expression, was at this moment astounded, astonished beyond belief! This... this convenient husband of hers, what exactly is his identity? He actually... truly managed to remove Sorrel with just one phone call, and not only that, he also took away Walkers heir status! The heir of such a colossal entity like the Finske Conglomerate, can he... he decide life and death with just one call? This... how is this possible! She couldnt believe it. But all of this happened clearly before her eyes, she had no choice but to believe! At the same time, her face blushed slightly, feeling a bit unable to save face. After all, she had not believed Ye Huan possessed such influence before... "Bang. Bang. Bang." The sound of kowtowing grew louder and louder, the flesh and blood on Walkers forehead were clearly visible. Ye Huan was full of black lines. Stephen actually did such an "absolute" thing, directly expelling him from the family? If he continued to kowtow like this, this damn Walker would surely knock himself to death on the spot. His attitude of apology was indeed very sincere. The perpetrator of this incident was Sorrel, and Walker had repeatedly instructed him not to let Tianyun International harbor any dissatisfaction, it was Sorrels own fault. Moreover, he was Stephens grandson, if he knocked himself to death in front of Ye Huan, that really wouldnt make sense. Ye Huan secretly nodded, and said faintly: "I can intercede for you, to prevent you from being expelled from the family." "I could even reinstate your position as President of the European division." "However, the premise is, you need to cooperate with Tianyun International unconditionally and help Tianyun International open up sales channels in Europe." He could actually regain the position as President of the European division? And... and also regain the heirs position? Walker was overjoyed, he didnt hesitate at all, he directly raised his hand in the air, and said with earnest seriousness and a resolute voice: "Absolutely no problem!" "I swear, Tianyun International will be Finskes permanent strategic partner in Europe!" "At the same time, if necessary, all resources of the Finske European division will be completely tilted toward Tianyun International!" "Any form of cooperation will be free of charge!" Upon hearing this, Ye Huan nodded faintly, pointed to Sorrel: "You handle him, no problem, right?" S~ea??h the N?vel(F)ire.nt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Walker turned to look at Sorrel, his gaze as cold as ice. He showed a meaningful expression on his face, and said: "Sir, please rest assured, the manner in which I handle it will definitely satisfy you..." "You deal with it first, come in the afternoon to sign the relevant cooperation agreement." Ye Huan said casually, then patted Liu Tianyuns back, "What are you standing there for, lets go." "Ah? Oh." Liu Tianyun said blankly, she snapped back to reality, yet still wore an unbelieving expression, but she followed Ye Huan toward the company nonetheless. Watching the two leave, Walkers face bore an unrestrained sinister expression. To compete and fight his family peers and climb up to the current position as the second heir of the Finske Conglomerate, how could he possibly be soft-hearted? One could even say his methods are absolutely ruthless! Sorrel, as Walkers assistant, naturally knew Walkers methods. His clothing was drenched layer upon layer with cold sweat when Walkers gaze fell upon him... Walker slowly bent down, a bizarre smile appearing on the corners of his mouth: "Sorrel, do you want to be chopped into pieces, or fed to the dogs? Or maybe..." "Oh yes, I just bought a new villa where I keep a dozen pythons. The cost to feed them is quite high, giving me quite a headache." "With you there, they should be able to feast very, very well at night..." Walkers smile was extremely cruel. "No... No... No!!" Sorrel cried out, lips trembling. Seeing Walkers increasingly sinister smile, Sorrels vision suddenly blackened, and in extreme fear, he fainted. When he awakes again, he might very much hope to remain in slumber. Rather than to watch himself be torn apart by pythons with his own eyes... Chapter 100: Repay Me? Chapter 100: Chapter 100: Repay Me?"Honey, Ive done such a great job, have you thought about how to repay me?" In the CEOs office, Ye Huan took a sip of tea and asked with a wink. Liu Tianyun seemed a bit lost in thought. Strategic partner? Allocate all resources to Tianyun International at critical moments? Such a level of cooperation would definitely allow Tianyun International to flourish in the European market. Its safe to say, its unprecedented! No company has ever been able to reach this level of cooperation with the Finske Conglomerate! Who exactly is Ye Huan? To have such influence! She remembered when her grandfather had promised her in marriage, he had given her a resume of Ye Huan, which only mentioned his rural upbringing. But anyone with half a brain knows its impossible for someone raised in a village to make a call and have the Finske Conglomerate remove the second heirs position! Simply impossible! This is too unbelievable. She racked her brains but still couldnt figure it out. At this moment, Ye Huan spoke seriously, "Honey, youre speechless. Is it possible that you recognize my ability and plan..." As he spoke, Huans brother smiled meaningfully, "So youre planning to make it real, and do some things a couple should do, like...making a baby?" "..." After a moment of silence, Liu Tianyun furrowed her eyebrows and asked impulsively, "Ye Huan, are you an orphan?" "..." Another silence, Ye Huans face darkened, "Liu Tianyun, I help you with such a big favor, and instead of a reward, you scold me?" "You got it wrong, I didnt scold you, I just asked if youre an orphan!" "Youre the orphan!" "You..." Liu Tianyun became angry in embarrassment, "I said I didnt scold you, I just asked if you are indeed an orphan!" "Liu Tianyun, youre really something, you can insult someone so refreshingly, I almost want to give you a like!" Ye Huan raised a thumb, then stormed out! "Bang!" The door slammed shut, Liu Tianyun gritted her teeth, furious. Sarch* The n??el Fire.nt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. This man, what an attitude! As a "wife," even if just a "fake wife," asking about her husbands identity and background isnt normal? Seriously, what an attitude! Whats wrong with being an orphan, does an orphan eat your rice?! Who says calling someone an orphan is an insult? Jerk! Liu Tianyun was furious and then smacked herself hard. "Liu Tianyun, what are you thinking?" "Ye Huan is just a jerk, how could he be related to Big Brother? Are you crazy?" "Theres no relation between them at all!" ... Walking into the elevator, Ye Huan simmered with complaints. That woman, Liu Tianyun, really lacks sense. Whats wrong with being an orphan? Does an orphan eat your rice? Does an orphan deserve your groundless insults? I clearly helped her a lot, not only did she not thank me, she started insulting me! Ungrateful wretch! This is a typical ungrateful wretch! "Ding." The elevator doors opened to reveal a familiar face. Ye Huans mood brightened, he leaned on the elevators left side, striking a notably "flirty" pose, and grinned, "Sister Zhang, am I handsome?" Zhang Huimins face looked grim as she clasped her fists tightly. Upon hearing Ye Huans voice, she froze and turned around. As soon as she saw Ye Huan, she recalled the "plumbing repair" incident, and her pretty face flushed red, "L... Little Ye? What are you doing here?" "I was just reporting to the CEO." Ye Huan smiled, "How about you, what happened? Why do you look so upset?" Zhang Huimins eyes darted around as she forced a smile: "Nothing really, Little Ye, youre overthinking." "By the way, I left your lunch in the insulator, Ill bring it to you later. If youre hungry, you can grab it from my desk." She said this while her eyebrows remained furrowed, unable to hide the anxiety on her face. Ye Huan could obviously tell she was troubled. Looking closely, he saw her clutching a document tightly, trying to hide it behind her, evidently not wanting him to see it. Ye Huan smirked, "Sister Zhang, are you sure theres nothing wrong?" "Absolutely nothing, stop imagining things!" Zhang Huimin shifted the document further behind her again, speaking irritably, "And you, get back to work, or you might get your pay docked!" "Well, Id better head back, Sister Zhang. If anything comes up, you must let me know." The elevator reached the first floor, and stepping out, Ye Huan waved a hand. "Yes, hurry back." Zhang Huimin smiled, but as she turned towards the door, her face was full of worry. "Sister Zhang, look at the sky, theres a UFO!" Ye Huan suddenly exclaimed. UFO? Zhang Huimin raised her head skyward. The next second, the document in her hand was swiftly snatched away, and her face turned anxious. "Little Ye, what are you doing, dont run!!" She was terribly worried as she quickly chased after Ye Huan. "Where is he?" Arriving at the security office door, she looked inside and was puzzled. How was the office empty? She was sure she saw Ye Huan go in! Walking into the office... "Bang!" The door closed, and Ye Huan, hidden behind the door, "revealed his true form," gently blowing in Zhang Huimins ear. "Sister Zhang, you actually fell for that, youre so naive." Zhang Huimins face turned red with embarrassment, "L... Little Ye, how could you fool me!?" "Sister Zhang, if you had honestly given me the document, would I have done that?" Ye Huan said, flipping through the snatched document, whistling lightly, acting indifferent. "But you shouldnt have tricked me..." Before Zhang Huimin could finish... "Sister Zhang, something like this happened, and you actually didnt tell me?" Ye Huan held the document and waved it at Zhang Huimin with a discontented look. "I..." Zhang Huimin gritted her teeth, took back the document, and stuffed it in her chest, "Little Ye, I can handle it, dont worry about it." "Handle it, how will you handle it? This is a ten million contract. Besides, Wang Tianbaos reputation is known all over Celestial Sea, I dont believe youre unaware. Dont tell me you actually want him to exploit you?" Wang Tianbao, chairman of Tianbao Pharmaceuticals Company Ltd., encompasses biomedical, pharmaceutical sales, and cosmeceutical product development and sales, making it a top pharmaceutical company in Celestial Sea, equivalent in scale to Tianyun International. His medical expertise can be said to be highly respected. But matching his medical skills, his lustful reputation precedes him, even notorious throughout Celestial Sea! He used to be a well-known professor at Celestial Sea University Medical School, but due to exploiting female students, playing with nurses, and getting involved with other professors mistresses, he was reported. But since the women were consenting, coupled with his superior medical skills and esteemed academic position, the university fiercely protected him. It wasnt long before he messed around with the principals wife, and when the affair was exposed, the enraged principal fired him. Returning to society, he founded Tianbao Pharmaceuticals Company Ltd. After that, he made no attempt to hide his lustful nature, if you want to sign a contract with him, without bringing a few beautiful, soft secretaries or business staff along, he wont even see you! As long as hes amused and satisfied, signing a contract becomes a pleasure for him. Everyone in Celestial Sea knows this all too well, and Zhang Huimin is no exception. She held her chin with both hands, looking exasperated: "I have no other choice, if I dont try to close this deal, Ill be fired... fired!" Chapter 101: Fire Her! Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Fire Her!"Give it a try? Lets not even mention whether hed easily let you come back after seeing your figure and looks. Have you heard of anyone signing a contract with him without accompanying him?" Zhang Huimin shook her head. "Then there it is. If you go, its like a lamb entering a tigers den!" Ye Huan spread his hands and asked, "Was this task assigned to you by Zhao Yongle? Is he trying to fire you?" "No, it was Fang Hong." "Fang Hong?" Ye Huan was surprised, "Isnt Fang Hong a member of Group Three? What right does she have to assign you a sales task?" Zhang Huimin looked enraged: "Xiao Ye, you dont know, Fang Hong seduced a foreign client and then tricked that client into signing a one billion SSS-level business order." "Because she completed the SSS task, Zhao Yongle pulled some strings and easily promoted her to deputy leader of Group Three." "After she was promoted, shes been making my life difficult, assigning me very hard sales tasks, but I managed to complete them. Today, she didnt say a word and just threw this contract from Tianbao at me, wanting me to handle it." Ye Huan frowned slightly. On his first day at Tianyun International, he already witnessed how vicious Fang Hong could be. Sar?h the Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Now it seems shes even more malicious than imagined... Wang Tianbao, that guy is the kind whod chew you up without a trace. If you try to sign a deal with him, youd be lucky if you arent ravaged ten or twenty times! Sending Zhang Huimin to sign a deal with Wang Tianbao is like offering her right into his hands. What would happen was as obvious as day! "Ill handle this matter, Sister Zhang, dont worry, I will not let you get fired." "Huh? How... how will you handle it? Youre not even in the sales department now..." Before Zhang Huimin could finish, Ye Huan had already walked out of the office. Zhang Huimin gritted her teeth and chased after him. ... "Bang!!!" With a kick, he slammed open the office door, raised his phone, and started recording. The loud noise startled Zhao Yongle and Fang Hong so much that they both jolted. A shadow covered Zhao Yongles heart; he suspected hed become useless. "Ye Huan, what... what are you doing!" "Ye Huan? How dare you barge into our office?!" Both cursed in unison. Fang Hongs face was full of anger, hurriedly grabbing her clothes beside her to put on. "If you havent done anything wrong, dont be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door!" Ye Huan said with a cold smile, ending the recording and putting the phone back in his pocket. "Whats...it to you, I warn you, delete the video immediately, or Ill... Ill sue you!" Fang Hong shouted. At this moment, Zhang Huimin caught up. She peeked inside the office, and her face instantly showed disgust. She turned her head away, refusing to look again. "Let me ask you, whats the meaning of the contract you gave Sister Zhang?" Ye Huan slammed the document heavily onto the nearby table, "Dont you two know what kind of person Wang Tianbao is?" The two exchanged glances at his words. Their previously ashen faces suddenly showed a playful look. Adjusting his attire, Zhao Yongle chuckled: "Captain Ye, youre wrong. Were just normally assigning work tasks, theres nothing wrong." "Zhang Huimin has the right to refuse this task, but refusing means, according to company regulations, facing disciplinary action, which is termination. Naturally, its all compliant!" Fang Hong crossed her arms, echoing, "Exactly, its just like Zhao Leader said, completely in compliance. However..." "If Zhang Huimin really doesnt want to accept this task, Zhao Leader and I might not be unable to show mercy, but the condition is..." "Zhang Huimin needs to accompany me tonight, to dine with Zhao Leader, watch a movie, and then head to a hotel..." The implication is all too evident: Go along with Zhao Yongle, or that pig Wang Tianbao, if you dont pick, youre out of Tianyun International! Fang Hong nestled into Zhao Yongles embrace, her gaze towards Zhao Huimin full of ridicule. Her heart screamed in contempt. Zhang Huimin, werent you fond of pretending to be pure, looking down on me serving Zhao Leader? Try looking down now. With my position as deputy leader of Group Three, I can make your life hell with ease! Zhang Huimins face went pale, she tugged at Ye Huans clothes tightly, biting her lip, and whispered, "Xiao... Xiao Ye, how about it... just let it go, I... Ill resign." Ye Huan patted her hand and smiled, "Dont worry, I said Id handle this." As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Hong scoffed with disdain, "You handle? Who do you think you are? Do you think being the Security Captain gives you a lot of power? Can you even manage the sales department?" Ye Huan shrugged, saying, "I dont have much to say to you. Just ask, are you sure you wont take back this order?" "What, do you intend to threaten us?" "Let me tell you, I am now the deputy leader of sales Group Three, and my man is Zhao Yongle, the leader of sales Group Three!" "We rule over the entire Group Three, what do you have to threaten us with!" "In conclusion, you probably dont even know that under Zhao Leaders recommendation, I, Fang Hong, have connected with Mr. Sorrel and signed a one billion contract!" "Sorrel, hes the assistant to the president of the European branch of the Finske Conglomerate. Do you know how powerful he is, how wealthy he is?" "Forget it, saying all these is like playing the lute to a cow, to someone as inexperienced as you, how could you possibly know about the Finske Conglomerate? Its pointless to tell you!" Fang Hong took out a ladies cigarette, took a deep puff, exhaled a smoke ring, and held her head high. Her demeanor was infuriating, her face nearly had "Come hit me if you dare" written all over it. Ye Huans mouth curled into a grin, his expression turning lively. The one entangled with Fang Hong was Sorrel? It explains why Sorrel seemed doomed, even if hes not dismembered by a python, he would surely die suddenly within three days, turns out its because of contracting some disease from her. He took out his phone. Fang Hong and Zhao Yongle laughed out loud together with a "pfft". They shook their heads dismissively. In their view, Ye Huans actions were merely to stand up for Zhang Huimin, to win her favor. But this kind of bluffing, what does it accomplish? Ultimately, its all in vain! At this moment, Ye Huans call was connected. "Hello, remove the position of deputy leader of sales Group Three from Fang Hong and promote Zhang Huimin to deputy leader." "Hmm? Give me a reason," said Liu Tianyun on the other end. "Fang Hongs SSS-level sales task was signed with Sorrel through shady dealings." "Reasonable enough. Tang Yao, issue a transfer report, remove Fang Hongs deputy leader position, and promote Zhang Huimin to deputy leader." Afterwards, the phone let out a "beep," indicating the call had ended. Since Ye Huan didnt put the phone on speaker, everyone in the office heard what seemed like Ye Huan "talking to himself." Fang Hong and Zhao Yongle were stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Hahaha!" "Leader Zhao, did you hear that? Ye... Ye Huan, a security captain, wants to remove... remove my deputy leader position in sales Group Three, hahaha!" "Xiao Hong, do you... do you have the number for the mental hospital? Make a call and have them take Ye Huan away, haha!" Chapter 102: Ye Huan, Who Do You Think You Are? Chapter 102: Chapter 102: Ye Huan, Who Do You Think You Are?The two laughed until they cried. In their eyes, Ye Huan had completely lost his mind! What a joke, he, a security team leader, actually wants to interfere with personnel transfers? Its laughable! After a while, their laughter slowly subsided. Zhao Yongle put his hands in his pockets, looking disdainful: "Ye Huan, I really dont want to insult you, but why do you love to show off in front of women?" "Showing off is fine, but first, youve got to have the means to do so, right? A single phone call to downgrade Fang Hongs position? Who do you think you are?" "You think youre the Minister of Human Resources? Let me tell you, the Minister of Human Resources is not you; its my uncle Zhao Zhenhai!" As he spoke, he kept poking Ye Huans chest with his finger, as arrogantly as he could be: "Even if you are really that good and demote Fang Hong, then promote Zhang Huimin to deputy leader, whats the use?" "I, Zhao Yongle, am the leader of Sales Team 3, so even if Zhang Huimin becomes the deputy leader, this task, I will still assign to her!" After speaking, Zhao Yongle looked at Zhang Huimin with satisfaction. Zhang Huimins face turned ugly, biting her lip. She tugged at Ye Huans clothes again, whispered: "Little... Little Ye, maybe... maybe we should just let it go?" "Let it go? Its not that easy to let it go!" A harsh glint flashed in Ye Huans eyes. Zhao Yongle felt quite uneasy, quickly retracting the finger that kept poking Ye Huans chest. But it was too late... Ye Huan easily restrained his movement, with a slight upward curve at the corner of his mouth. The white teeth inside his mouth reflected a chilling gleam, sending a shiver down Zhao Yongles spine. "Crack..." The crisp sound of bone breaking echoed, and the finger snapped. "Ah!!!" Zhao Yongle screamed, his face turning beet red, clutching his finger and jumping up and down in an attempt to alleviate the excruciating pain. Fang Hong looked anxious, frantically wanting to help but was powerless. She glared at Ye Huan and cursed: "You security guard, how dare you assault Leader Zhao in broad daylight!" The noise was really loud, and employees from other sales teams couldnt help but poke their heads out to see the commotion. Even Su Qingqing, from the directors office, raised her eyebrows and walked out with an unpleasant look. "Whats going on?" "Oh, nothing really, just dealing with these shameless scumbags." "Huh?" Su Qingqing was confused, looking into the office, her eyes fixed on the mess on the floor. And given Fang Hong and Zhao Yongles disheveled appearance... As an adult, she could see it clearly now; the two had been caught in the act of office misconduct by Ye Huan! At this moment, Ye Huan looked at Zhao Yongle, took out his phone, and said meaningfully: "Leader Zhao, you just said you will definitely assign the task to Zhang Huimin?" "What? Youre unhappy?" "Arent you very powerful? If youre unhappy, go ahead and demote me!" "Dare to break my finger? Dont let me catch you otherwise Ill kill you!" Zhao Yongle clutched his finger, his face twisted with pain. Ye Huan said nothing, silently opened WeChat, and sent the video he had recorded earlier to Liu Tianyun. A minute later... "Ding!" The WeChat notification sound rang... Ye Huan didnt even read the reply, directly put the phone in his pocket, and said: "Zhao Yongle, you might want to prepare to see how you can quit more gracefully." After he said this... "..." The entire sales department went silent. Quit? "Did this guy really report Zhao Yongle?" "I think he reported him, but its useless, Zhao Yongle is Zhao Zhenhais nephew!" "Yeah, with Zhao Zhenhai backing him, even Director Su doesnt have the power to fire him unless the presidents office orders it!" The sales department employees discussed endlessly, deeply sighed, and shook their heads. Zhao Yongle wreaked havoc in the sales department, often abusing salespeople from other teams, resulting in very poor relationships. Everyone hoped he would get out of the company, but it wasnt useful, his backing was too strong, no one could knock him down! Su Qingqings expression was indifferent. Others didnt know, but she knew that Ye Huan, this scoundrel, was ostensibly the security team leader, but was actually Liu Tianyuns husband! The son-in-law of Tianyun Group, firing a mere department leader was all too simple! But Ye Huans true identity was known only to her within the sales department; some who didnt know still thought of Ye Huan as a mere pretentious clown. Zhao Yongle smiled playfully, laughed: "Ye Huan, did you just say youd fire me?" "Yes, any problem?" Ye Huan smiled. "What a joke! How many times do I have to tell you? My uncle is part of Tianyun Internationals HR department, with him around, no one can fire me!" "Oh? You mean, not even the presidents office?" "Ha!" Zhao Yongle patted Ye Huans shoulder, looked around, then clapped his hands and shouted: "See this? Young and already insane, truly pitiable!" The employees watching shook their heads and sighed. Not to mention whether Ye Huan as security leader had the qualifications to contact the presidents office; even if he did, what was the use? The presidents office is the central brain of the company. If the presidents office fires someone, it must be a management-level decision, how could it involve Zhao Yongle? Unless this security leader was so influential that the presidents office couldnt ignore him, but is that realistic? Not realistic! This security leaders mental state might really be abnormal! "Sigh~" Zhao Yongle sighed, "kindly" "advising": "Ye Huan, as a security leader, dont always think about flexing." "As the old saying goes, showing off requires corresponding strength as support, but unfortunately, you dont have it!" "Without that strength, just quietly do your job as a security guard, dont wander in front of others, its unlucky!" "Understand?" "Again, Zhang Huimin, either follow me or follow that fat pig Wang Tianbao!" Just as he was speaking... His face suddenly changed. S~ea??h the ovelFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Who dares to insult me!" "Ding dong" sound followed, and the elevator door opened. A round-bodied middle-aged man in a white coat angrily rushed in. The badge on his chest engraved with: "Former Professor of Celestial Sea University Medical School." "Chairman of Tianbao Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. Wang Tianbao!" Seeing him, Zhao Yongle shivered, stumbled, and fell. What is... What is going on! Why is Wang Tianbao here? "Was it you who called me a fat pig? Youre quite bold!" Wang Tianbaos eyes were full of fury. He immediately took off his foul-smelling shoe and smacked Zhao Yongle on the face. With a "pop", Zhao Yongle groaned and fell to the ground. Simultaneously, he was nauseated by the stench of Wang Tianbaos shoe, almost vomiting out his breakfast. "Da. Da. Da." The sound of high heels on the floor echoed as a woman in office dress and holding a file slowly came over. The sales department employees all showed incredulous expressions. Why would Secretary Tang come to the sales department? Chapter 103: Dismissal! Demotion! Chapter 103: Chapter 103: Dismissal! Demotion!"Hello, Secretary Tang!" The employees greeted in unison. Tang Yao nodded slightly. She walked straight to the office of Team Three. Fang Hong and Zhao Yongle shivered immediately. Whats going on! Its one thing for Wang Tianbao to come, but why is Tang Yao here too?! "Ah!" With another wail, Zhao Yongles other cheek was swollen from being hit with a shoe. "Chairman Wang, please stop for a moment, can you?" Seeing Wang Tianbao still hitting Zhao Yongle with a shoe, Tang Yao said helplessly. Sar?h the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Oh, alright, Ill hit him more later." "Daring to curse me behind my back, hes simply tired of living!" Wang Tianbao cursed while putting on his shoes and stepped aside. Zhao Yongle was on the verge of tears. He just wanted to vent about Wang Tianbao to boost his own arrogant satisfaction. Who would have thought that when he was venting, the actual person would show up! But what made him more flustered wasnt this... Zhao Yongle looked at Tang Yao and tentatively asked, "Secretary Tang, your visit here is..." "Im announcing, youre fired!" Tang Yaos words were like a thunderbolt on a clear day, leaving all the sales department employees, including Zhao Yongle and Fang Hong, with their mouths agape. F-fired? Zhao Yongle, fired? "Secretary... Secretary Tang, are you sure? Am I really fired?" Zhao Yongle pointed at himself, unbelievingly. Tang Yao picked up a document and read: "Notice from Tianyun Internationals Office of the President:" "Group head of the sales department, Zhao Yongle, and deputy group head, Fang Hong, have been involved in an improper long-term relationship, and they engaged in under-the-table actions during work hours in the office, severely violating the companys policy against office romances and causing a significant negative impact on the companys image." "Thus, the Office of the President has decided to officially terminate Group head Zhao Yongle and demote deputy group head Fang Hong!" As she finished speaking, the entire sales department fell into an eerie silence. "Hiss" "Gulp!" The sound of sharp intakes of breath and throats gulping resonated continuously. Everyone was dumbfounded. Zu... Zhao Yongle, actually got fired? And... and it was the Presidents Office who came in person to terminate him? Wh-what is going on!! They instinctively fixed their gaze on Ye Huan. This... this guy just told Zhao Yongle to think about how to leave with dignity a moment ago? So its really... really him? Damn! This security team leader is actually so impressive? He can make the Presidents Office personally handle such trivial matters? Impressive!!! Zhao Yongle at this moment was already stupefied, his mouth opening and closing: "No... impossible, impossible..." "How is it impossible? I just told you to think about how to leave with dignity. Look at you now, isnt it embarrassing?" "If you dont listen to elders, youll suffer for it soon enough!" Ye Huan clicked his tongue. "Ye Huan, stop being arrogant!" Zhao Yongle shouted: "I got fired? Thats impossible!" He took out his phone and dialed Zhao Zhenhais number. Soon, the call was connected. After connecting, his tone had a tinge of sob, clearly less confident than before. "Uncle, the Presidents Office wants to fire me, you... you have to plead for me!" "Fired? What did you do!" "I was caught by... by Ye Huan filming me while engaging in under-the-table actions. He sent the video to the Presidents Office, and now they want to fire me!" "Zhao Yongle, youre just a clump of unredeemable mud!" On the other end, Zhao Zhenhai, trembling with anger, roared: "Did you forget the last time Ye Huan made a call and brought over two Rolls-Royce fleets? And you still dare provoke him? I cant handle this; youre on your own!" After yelling, the call was disconnected. Staring at the now dark screen, Zhao Yongle was in total despair. Seeing Ye Huan in a security uniform just now, he instinctively forgot the previous incidents. A security guard calling over two Rolls-Royce fleets? Is that realistic? Its not realistic, but with Ye Huan, it became reality! Indeed, Ye Huan could summon two Rolls-Royce fleets with a single call. How could I possibly contend with him? Its over! Its all over! My future is over!!! I was supposed to be the major contributor to bringing down Tianyun International, then represent the Bai Family with my uncle to truly control Tianyun International, my future was so bright. Now, its all gone!! Zhao Yongles face was filled with regret, he was full of remorse. Why did I provoke Ye Huan, why?! His demeanor made Fang Hong extremely anxious. Fang Hong was so anxious her face turned white, frantically shaking Zhao Yongle: "Group Leader Zhao, whats going on? Youre fired and Im demoted? How is that possible? Uncle Zhao cant do anything?!" "Stop babbling!" "Slap!" Zhao Yongle slapped her hard, pushing Fang Hong to the ground. Without even daring to look at Ye Huan, he slinked out of Tianyun International. He just hated that there was no medicine for regret in this world. If he could do it all over again, he would never choose to oppose Ye Huan. Opposing someone like that is no different from courting death! Hatred! At this moment, Wang Tianbao beside him came back to his senses, flew into a rage, grabbed a shoehorn, and chased after him: "Dont run!!" ... After the incident subsided, Tang Yao announced that Zhang Huimin was appointed as the team leader of the sales group three, responsible for overseeing the formulation and progress of all sales indicators in group three. The usage rights of the team leaders office chair in group three naturally transferred to Zhang Huimin. But right now, sitting in that office chair with a playful expression was Ye Huan. His legs were propped up on the desk, across from him stood Fang Hong, her face pale as paper, with her head lowered. Zhang Huimin, with her pretty face slightly flushed, was standing behind Ye Huan massaging his shoulders. She had completely seen Ye Huan in a new light. Not only did he actually get Zhao Yongle fired, but he also... also promoted her to team leader, he was truly amazing. But she... she really didnt have the confidence to be a good team leader! "L-little Ye, why dont you go to the presidents office and say, I... I should not be the team leader, right? Im not qualified enough." Zhang Huimin said a bit embarrassedly. "No way, from 0 to 1 there has to be a process, Sister Zhang, just feel free to be the team leader, the team leaders salary is high, and you can improve my meals as well, lets make every meal a 70 yuan budget from now on!" Ye Huan said casually. Fang Hong let out a cold snort at this moment. She had her head lowered, but there was an unmistakable venomous look in her eyes. Acting smug upon becoming a team leader, pretending to be innocent, this Zhang Huimin really loved to pretend! She was cursing incessantly in her heart. A moment later, she felt an overwhelming urge to cry. "Fang Hong, you seem really displeased?" "Here, this task is yours, finish it within three days." "Otherwise, youre getting fired from Tianyun International." Ye Huan took out the directive cooperation document with Tianbao Pharmaceuticals and threw it to Fang Hong. Fang Hongs legs went weak, and she staggered back several steps uncontrollably. Her whole heart sank to the bottom. She didnt mind being taken advantage of by others, but that doesnt mean shes willing to be with just anyone. Zhao Yongle and Sorrel looked at least decent, so she didnt mind. But Wang Tianbao was hard to deal with! Without being taken advantage of over a dozen times, its impossible to sign the contract. A dozen times could be endured, but Wang Tianbao was a fat pig, being taken advantage of by him was practically torture! If only she hadnt made things hard for Zhang Huimin, in the end, she made things hard for herself! Fang Hong wanted to cry but had no tears left, regretting it to death. Ye Huan tapped on the desk, looking displeased: "What, youre not accepting it? If you dont accept it, youre fired!" "If youre fired, your salary and bonus for this month will all be deducted!" "Additionally, youll be fined..." Before Ye Huan could continue. Fang Hong snatched the document, forcing a smile: "I... I accept." Her lips were trembling, she still owed tens of thousands on credit, how could she repay them if she was fired and fined? Ye Huan clamped a toothpick in his mouth, scolded: "So why are you still standing here? This is the team leaders office, can you show some discernment? Out!" Fang Hong, startled by the yelling, hurriedly and fearfully exited the office. "Little Ye, isnt this... not very good?" Zhang Huimins eyes flashed with a hint of compassion, "Even though Fang Hong..." "Sister Zhang, youre now the team leader, these things are for you to decide, Im out of it." Ye Huan smiled, cutting off Zhang Huimin, then stood up, pressing her down into the office chair: "Team Leader Zhang, do your best!" Having said that, Brother Huan stepped out. Zhang Huimins face was burning hot with embarrassment. But soon, her gaze became firm. Now that shes a team leader, she absolutely cannot let Little Ye down! Chapter 104: Ten billion! Chapter 104: Chapter 104: Ten billion!Just as he returned to the first floor, Ye Huan was called to the CEOs office by a phone call from Tang Yao. In the office, Wang Tianbao was sitting on the sofa. The soles of his leather shoes were detaching, making them quite "eye-catching". Its not hard to imagine that Zhao Yongles face must have been slapped swollen like a pigs head by him. "This must be Mr. Ye Huan, Mrs. Lius husband, right? Indeed, Ive long heard of you; this demeanor, this aura, truly seeing is believing. I also attended the Liu patriarchs birthday banquet last time, but unfortunately, I was too far away to get a closer look at you, Mr. Ye!" Wang Tianbao praised with a smile, extending his hand. S~ea??h the novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Of course." Ye Huan walked straight to the side, not shaking hands with this notoriously infamous person. Hed rather not dirty his hands! On the surface, Wang Tianbao smiled apologetically, but a flicker of anger flashed in his eyes. Though his Tianbao Pharmaceuticals wasnt as influential as the Liu Family, it was about the same size as Tianyun International. Why act so arrogant! "Cut the nonsense. Why did you call me here?" Ye Huan gave no pleasantries to Liu Tianyun, as the unprovoked insults he suffered were still fresh in his memory. Liu Tianyun was a bit annoyed, cursing Ye Huans pettiness under her breath. She had voluntarily promoted his "lover" from deputy leader to leader. Instead of feeling grateful, he was giving her attitude? She took a deep breath, suppressing her inner displeasure, then spoke: "Meiying, thanks to its high cost-performance ratio and excellent effectiveness, has already captured most of the domestic skincare cream market. However, due to channel issues, this market share has now reached a bottleneck." "Therefore, the company has decided to expand its sales channels in Huaxia, while simultaneously launching the product in Europe, to continue eroding the domestic skincare market share." "To this end, we especially invited Mr. Wang Tianbao, the chairman of Tianbao Pharmaceuticals. His sales channels for dermocosmetics are perfectly suited for our products. But he needs to understand some product information, which is why we called you here." After pondering for a moment, Ye Huan asked, "Once Tianyun Internationals production capacity meets the demands of the European market, isnt that basically the peak? Is it necessary to expand the domestic market further?" Liu Tianyun, with a calm expression, said, "The companys current financial status is very healthy. We will allocate some funds to expand capacity and thus increase supply to the channels." Ye Huan frowned slightly, "Is there a need to rush this?" At this moment, Wang Tianbao spoke, revealing his large yellow teeth, and smiled, "Mr. Ye, thats not right. Meiying is selling like hotcakes now; expanding capacity will only make us even more money!" "Theres no need for that. Our product is great; we can slowly eat into the market without rushing," Ye Huan said nonchalantly as he sat at the other end of the sofa. Once again, Wang Tianbaos expression changed, but he quickly returned to normal. Just moments ago, hearing Ye Huan say theres no need to rush made his expression somewhat unnatural. These two odd reactions of his naturally didnt go unnoticed by Brother Huan. After all, strange happenings are often suspicious. Wang Tianbao certainly wasnt just here to talk about cooperation! A slight curve appeared on Ye Huans lips, "Honey, theres no need for this cooperation, right? We should take it step by step and not rush!" "Hmph!" In a rage, Wang Tianbao stood up, "President Liu, Im here to discuss cooperation, not to listen to whether you should expand capacity or not. Since you lack sincerity, lets just drop the cooperation!" With that, he waved his large sleeve and made to leave the office. "Chairman Wang, please stay!" Liu Tianyun hurriedly called out to Wang Tianbao. Then, she looked at Ye Huan with displeasure, saying, "Are you the CEO or am I? The matter of expanding capacity has already been passed in the companys upper management meeting, so theres no need for your opinion." Ye Huan looked helpless, "Are you serious?" Liu Tianyun didnt respond verbally but her meaning was crystal clear. Meiying couldnt be considered just a popular product anymore; it had swept across every corner of Huaxia. As a businesswoman, and a successful one at that, Liu Tianyun had a strong sense of crisis. She knew very well that Meiying currently faced a severe shortage, often selling out within half an hour of going on sale each day, even leading to the emergence of many scalpers profiting from resales. If Meiying remained content and didnt progress, allowing scalpers to thrive, the products reputation among users would quickly crumble. And to break this situation, the only way was to expand capacity! "Ye Huan, introduce Meiying to Chairman Wang." Seeing Liu Tianyuns resoluteness, Ye Huan spread his hands helplessly and said, "Chairman Wang, right? What would you like to know?" Wang Tianbao beamed with joy, saying, "I want to know about the product specifications and parameters of your companys Meiying skincare cream, to facilitate our future cooperation. I was too anxious just now; I apologize, I apologize, haha." "Specifications and parameters? A jar of 250G, boxed, priced at 139." Wang Tianbao was taken aback for a moment. Then, he waved his hand and said with an awkward smile, "Mr. Ye, you misunderstood. I wasnt asking about that." "I was hoping to see the formula of the skincare cream..." Before he finished speaking, Ye Huan laughed coldly. "Wang Tianbao, you may look ugly, but your thoughts sure are fanciful." "You..." Wang Tianbao was furious; he hated being called ugly the most. But having not achieved his goal, he chose not to lash out immediately. Suppressing his anger, he looked at Liu Tianyun, "President Liu, what do you think?" "Chairman Wang, would you hand over your companys top-secret formula to someone else? If you would, then I wont say anything. But sorry, Im not as generous as that!" Liu Tianyun said coldly, clearly rejecting him. The formula for the new Meiying skincare cream was classified as the companys highest-level secret, accessible only by her. A formula is the soul of a product, the life of a product. Not to mention the invaluable Meiying formula. Giving it to someone with only cooperative intentions? Thats sheer folly! Perhaps realizing his eagerness had gone too far. Wang Tianbao swallowed and slowly said, "President Liu, actually, my purpose isnt to see the formula but to confirm the safety of the Meiying product. We at Tianbao hold our reputation in high regard. If theres a quality issue with the product, it will significantly affect us. If you could show me the factory where Meiying is produced, it might be acceptable..." "No way. If you want the formula, just say so. Why beat around the bush?" "Mr. Ye, could you stop interrupting!" Wang Tianbao pointed at Ye Huan, eyes wide with anger. "Did I say something wrong? Isnt it the formula you want? Heres an easy solution: Ill name a price, and if you agree, Ill sell you the formula." "Sell it to me?" Wang Tianbaos face lit up, "Mr. Ye, how much are you offering it for?" Ye Huan raised one finger. "Ten million?" Wang Tianbao asked tentatively. "Do you think Im running a charity?" "One billion?" Ye Huan shook his finger. "Then..." Wang Tianbao gritted his teeth, "Ten billion?" "One hundred billion!" Chapter 105: Ye Huan, Come Out and Face Your Death! Chapter 105: Chapter 105: Ye Huan, Come Out and Face Your Death!"Ten billion? Are you robbing a bank?" Wang Tianbao was furious. "Meiying is an exclusive formula, no other company has ever owned it. If you buy it, you can earn the money back in just a few years." Ye Huan had a playful expression on his face. If Wang Tianbao was willing to spend ten billion, Huan wouldnt mind selling him the formula. After all, Huan could come up with a formula that easily outmatches Meiying. But if Wang Tianbao didnt buy it, it wouldnt be a loss either. Judging from his reaction and anxious price inquiry, it was clear his target was the Meiying formula, not a sincere collaboration. Liu Tianyun, a veteran in the business world, easily saw through this. With a stern look, she pointed to the door, "Chairman Wang, it seems we dont need to cooperate. Please leave?" "You..." Wang Tianbao gritted his teeth and stormed off. The fat on his face shook with every step. Before leaving, a look of malice flashed in his eyes. "Why so arrogant? In a month, it will be the demise of your Liu Family and Tianyun International!" Cursing inwardly, Wang Tianbao entered the elevator. Upon reaching the first floor, he seemed to see something and was nearly scared to death, running and crawling towards a nearby restroom. ... "Honey, how did I do?" Ye Huan took a sip of hot tea, smacking his lips with a proud look. "Not bad." sea??h th Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Liu Tianyun replied flatly. On the surface, she appeared calm, but internally, she was impressed by Ye Huans meticulous thinking. With just a few words, he made Wang Tianbao angry with embarrassment and revealed his true intentions. Ye Huan smiled and continued, "But I think you should play it safe and not expand production for now." "There are too many scalpers now. Meiyings official price is 139, but its turning into 1399 or even higher in scalpers hands. If this continues, Meiyings reputation will be ruined." "Isnt that simple? Just implement a purchase limit, one ID, one bottle a day." "Its not as simple as you think. It will increase labor costs, and the channel partners wont be happy." "If theyre not happy, we can just cut off the supply..." As they spoke. Outside the Tianyun International building, a ground-shaking, murderous shout suddenly erupted: "Ye Huan, come out and die!" This roar took Huan by surprise, causing him to spit out his tea. Wiping the tea off his face, Ye Huan quickly walked to the window. Upon looking down, his face turned dark. Over thirty vans had blocked the street entrances tightly on both sides. More than four hundred burly men in security uniforms, holding electric batons and looking fierce, stood neatly in front of the company building. Each of them was over 1.9 meters tall, with sturdy physiques and explosive-looking muscles. Moreover... an unsettling aura constantly emanated from them! Every roar was terrifying, sending shivers down peoples spines! Passersby were so scared that they fled hurriedly. "Ye Huan, come out and die!!!" Another round of loud roars. This time, employees from Tianyun International and surrounding buildings all rushed to the windows. Without exception, upon seeing the scene below, their legs went weak, and they collapsed to the floor, trembling non-stop. Wang Tiezhu and Su Zhiqiang, who were originally chatting in the lobby, were so frightened by the roar that their hats fell off. After learning of Ye Huans whereabouts, they hurried to the CEOs office to report. "Captain Ye, you... you should leave through the companys emergency exit; they havent found it yet!" Upon bursting into the office, the two panted heavily as they spoke. "You better go quickly, Ill call 911 to have them handle it." Liu Tianyun, expressionless, picked up the phone. She immediately dialed her close friend, Qin Ya, the chief of criminal police in Celestial Sea City, seeking her assistance. "Alright, lets go." Ye Huan put his hands behind his back and leisurely walked out of the office like a leisurely old man. A minute later, Wang Tiezhu and Su Zhiqiang almost went crazy with anxiety. At a time like this, waiting for the elevator? Must he take the elevator to the second floor and then run to the back door via stairs? Why not take the stairs directly to be faster! "Ding dong." The elevator finally arrived, and the three entered. Seeing Ye Huan pressed the button for the first floor, Wang Tiezhu and Su Zhiqiang nearly freaked out: "Captain Ye, why did you press the first-floor button?" "Of course, Im going to the first floor." "What?!" The two trembled. "Captain Ye, are you out of your mind? The first floor is surrounded by that group. Once you get off the elevator, you wont even have a chance to go to the back door!" "Why go to the back door?" "Besides, if I dont go to the first floor..." "How am I going to take care of them?" Ye Huan grabbed a toothpick, a smirk on his lips. ... "Ye Huan, come out and die!" The more than four hundred "security" personnel continually roared. Their momentum was like an overwhelming wave, shattering a few panes of glass in the surrounding buildings. Inside was even more terrifying. Ceiling lights, fans, as well as vases and computers on the table, were all trembling violently as if about to fall off anytime, making it seem like an earthquake had occurred. At the forefront of the group, Zhou Sha waved a big hand. The crowd changed their "lines" and shouted loudly: "Ye Huan, even if you hide in a latrine or septic tank, Silver Bay will pull you out and slice you to pieces!" Oh my God! Silver Bay? Those who had heard of this name were utterly scared and fell to the ground, stuttering and unable to say a single word. "How cursed is that Ye Huan to actually dare provoke Silver Bay?" "How brave must he be to dare provoke Silver Bay?!" Many asked themselves these soul-searching questions. At that moment... "Ding dong." The elevator door at Tianyun International opened. "Wow, there are quite a lot of people here." Chapter 106: Facing Death? Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Facing Death?Ye Huan held a toothpick in his mouth, hands in pockets, and strode to the entrance of Tianyun International. Huans face was calm, but his forehead couldnt help but gather a few black lines. Didnt I just make up a random name? Who knew there would really be such a big faction called Silver Bay in Celestial Sea City? "Are you Ye Huan?" Zhou Sha squinted his eyes at Ye Huan. He waved his hand coldly, and the roar stopped immediately. At that moment, the "security guards" behind him all simultaneously drew batons from their waists. In that instant, the fierce light in their eyes burst out. Many people gathered by the windows, cautiously watching the commotion, swallowed hard, not daring to look further. Because just one glance was enough to make them feel extremely oppressed and a chill rise from their heart. At this time, Ye Huan spoke up, "Im Ye Huan. What do you want with me?" "Heard youve been impersonating our Silver Bay boss, swindling and cheating all over Celestial Sea?" "Swindling and cheating? Buddy, Im an exemplary citizen, no way Id do such things." Ye Huan shrugged. "So youre going to keep arguing?" Zhou Shas face turned cold, his voice low. This exchange made Su Zhiqiang and Wang Tiezhu, trembling behind Ye Huan, collapse to the ground in fear. Oh my! No wonder Silver Bay, having not shown up in a decade or two, is now so grandly blocking the entrance of someone elses company. Turns out... its because their bosss identity was impersonated! How could Captain Ye have such courage? To dare impersonate the identity of Silver Bays boss? This is a capital offense! At this moment. More than a dozen vans pulled up on both sides of the street. Tiger bro, with a cigar between his lips, led over a hundred shirtless, burly men carrying machetes toward them. A machete over a meter long, gleaming fiercely. "Ye Huan, you dare impersonate Boss Yes identity and deceive us?" "If it werent for Young Master Bais proper investigation, wed really have been fooled by you all along!" "Today is the day you pay the price!" Tiger bro cursed loudly, stamping out his cigarette butt. "Kill! Kill! Kill!" The followers behind him raised their machetes into the air, roaring like tiger cries. Under the sunlight, the machetes gleam became even more blinding, making peoples hearts restless. "Pa. Pa. Pa." Ye Huans mouth curled up, applauding, "Another group joins, today sure is lively." "This time next year, your grave will be even livelier." Tiger bro sneered. Then he stood behind Zhou Sha, and his followers consciously stood behind the "security" team. Zhou Shas face finally improved slightly. Today is the first time in twenty years that Silver Bay has publicly re-emerged. If the spotlight is stolen, theyd definitely be laughed at in the underworld. "Do you plead guilty?" Zhou Sha glanced coldly at Ye Huan, asking in a cold voice. "What crime do I have?" "Impersonating our Silver Bay boss, and you think you are innocent?" "Your boss is so impressive?" Ye Huans gaze was steady and calm, "I think your boss should feel honored to be impersonated by me." "..." The entire venue fell silent. At this moment, even if a pin dropped, it could be heard loud and clear. Wang Tiezhu and the others were utterly dumbfounded. Ye... Ye Huan, actually said Silver Bays boss should feel honored to be impersonated by him? Such bravado is fine behind closed doors, but now... now what kind of situation is this?! There are five hundred burly men standing outside, and he still dares to say such things? Not just them, but even all the five hundred burly men outside, burst into cold laughter, thinking Ye Huan was definitely out of his mind. "This... this Ye Huan, whats going on? Facing imminent death and still daring to provoke Silver Bay?" "Probably thinks since hes going to die anyway, might as well show off before dying for a thrill." "Whats so thrilling, provoking Silver Bay, he wont even die easily, likely be tortured to death!" The employees in surrounding skyscrapers whispered among themselves. But the conclusion they reached was surprisingly unanimous: This Ye Huan is as good as dead! And he surely wont die peacefully, will definitely suffer inhumane torture before death! Many began silently mourning Ye Huan, wishing him a better next life, in hopes of avoiding this "congenital idiocy." At the same time, not far away, Bai Yu shook his head disdainfully. Hes seen people show off, but never one like Ye Huan! Bai Yu stepped down from his convertible, throwing Ye Huan a "sympathetic" glance, "Ye Huan, I know youre not very smart, but I didnt know you were this dim-witted. Silver Bays Boss Ye, even I must show respect, and you, a security team captain, dare impersonate her identity?!" Ye Huan remained calm, "Even you show respect to her? Hearing your tone, you seem to think highly of your own status?" "You..." sea??h th N?vel(F)ire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Bai Yu was furious. However, he didnt lash out. Instead, the flames of anger quickly extinguished in his eyes. Ye Huan, heading straight to his doom. This kid who repeatedly opposed him, snatching Liu Tianyun away, is finally going to die! After his death, with the help of Tiger and Sorrel, not only can he cunningly win over his dream girl Liu Tianyun, but hell also have a chance to meet Walker the CEO. Tsk tsk. With a bright future ahead, is it worth wasting emotions with a man about to die? He snickered, "I dont argue with the dead. Ye Huan, you better think about how youll die later!" With that, he stepped aside. At this moment, Zhou Shas eyes were already filled with burning rage. Impersonating the bosss identity, saying the boss should feel honored? Daring to look down on Silver Bay, looking down on the boss... This man, deserves to die! This man, must die! "Kid, Im going to tear you into pieces!" Zhou Shas face twisted with rage, suddenly snatching the machete from Tiger bros hands. The over four hundred "security" personnel, their murderous aura evident, suffocating everyone. Bai Yu beamed, wishing he could shout his thoughts, "Come on, come on, hack him to death, cripple him! Its best to torture him for days, making every extra second of life painful, hahaha!" Imagining Ye Huan beaten like a dead dog made his heart surge with excitement, wishing the scene would appear before him immediately. This million was surely worth it! Silver Bay sure lives up to its reputation as the strongest gang, what a display, impressive! Tiger bro spat on the side, revealing a disdainful smile. Dare impersonate Boss Ye to fool me? Once youre dead, Ill dance on your grave! He thought for a bit and waved his hand again. In an instant, all his followers aimed their machetes at Ye Huan. Zhou Sha, holding the machete, walked towards Ye Huan step by step. Everyone else followed behind him, moving step by step. With each step, the fear intensified. But just when they were halfway up the steps... Just when Bai Yus smile grew wider, taking out his phone, ready to capture Ye Huans tragic state... Just when Tiger bros laughter grew fiercer, rolling up his sleeves... Just when the ferocious five hundred strong men raised their weapons, ready to strike Ye Huan... Just when a sharp gleam flashed in Ye Huans eyes, preparing to unleash a sharp counterattack on this so-called gang... "Stop right there!!!" A heart-wrenching shout echoed from afar! Along with it. The intense roar of an engine. The motorcycle had four exhaust pipes, speeding at two hundred miles per hour. The rider suddenly lifted the front wheel, the Firebird pattern on the motorcycle left a blazing flame in the air. "Boom!" The motorcycle rotated 480 degrees mid-air, landing directly on the ground, creating a big crater. A woman wearing a steel helmet, a fiery red cheongsam, sucking on a strawberry-flavored lollipop, and looking extremely anxious, dismounted the bike. Chapter 107: Boss, I finally found you! Chapter 107: Chapter 107: Boss, I finally found you!Ye Bingning took off the steel helmet from her head and ran over hurriedly. The moment she clearly saw Ye Huans face from a distance, she was stunned for a while, looking utterly incredulous. It wasnt until Zhou Sha was about to make a move that she snapped back to her senses, frightened. She knew just how insanely powerful Ye Huans combat prowess was from their time overseas. Forget about her four hundred brothers, even if four thousand more came, they wouldnt be a match for him! As she arrived in the midst of the crowd... "Big Sis, you came just in time." "Ill take off this brats head right now, to let him know youre a force not to be trifled with!" Zhou Sha shouted loudly, then raised the machete in his hand and slashed down fiercely! "Swish!" A loud wind-breaking sound came as the back of the blade glowed coldly, slashing directly towards Ye Huan! This slash made Bai Yu and Brother Hus faces show slight regret. They originally wanted to torture Ye Huan to death. But now its not happening; with this slash, Ye Huan will definitely be beheaded! However, it doesnt matter, as long as he dies. They can just bury him and then urinate on his grave and whip the corpse a few times; that works too. The two exchanged glances and nodded in agreement, a mischievous smile on their lips, clearly having thought the same thing. They once again set their sights on Ye Huan. This time, standing in place made them stagger and nearly faint from fright. What... what is going on!!! "Clang." A "metallic" collision sound rang out. A machete blade about one meter long was actually caught between Ye Huans two fingers. Zhou Sha exclaimed that it was impossible, then exerted more force. Yet he found that even using all his strength, he couldnt make the machete advance an inch. "Buddy, your knife skills... are indescribable. I think you should just go back and sleep." Ye Huan said nonchalantly, holding the blade between two fingers of his right hand, using the little finger of his left hand to clean his ear. The next second... A crisp "bang" sound resounded. The five hundred or so people including Zhou Sha, and the onlookers in the surrounding buildings, all widened their eyes in astonishment. What... what is happening! A 50-pound machete blade, was actually forcibly broken in two by Ye Huans fingers? Unlike their shock, Ye Bingning seemed to have anticipated the blades breakage, showing no sign of surprise at all. She walked over with angry eyes, snatching the machete from Zhou Shas hands, and threw it straight to the ground. At this moment, Zhou Sha snapped back to reality, hurriedly guarding Ye Bingning behind him: "Big Sis, you should leave quickly, this guy is skilled!" "Boss Ye, you fall back, let the brothers step in!" Brother Hu shouted, giving Bai Yu a look. "Yes, Boss Ye, let me protect you!" Bai Yu said happily, guarding in front of Ye Bingning. The heavens favor those who persevere, finally, theres a chance to win over Ye Bingning! Haha, standing protectively in front of her, surely she would fall for him! By the time these five hundred men tear Ye Huan apart, hed win both Liu Tianyun and Ye Bingning; a double delight! "Slap!" The crisp sound of a slap echoed in the air. Bai Yu fell to the ground, looking baffled. "Protect me? You think youre worthy?" Looking at the blood trickling from the corner of Bai Yus mouth, Ye Bingnings voice was icily cold, as if plunging him into an abyss. Afterwards... She turned her head, pushed off with her legs... Ye Bingning leaped up, clinging to Ye Huan like an octopus, their heads level, her eyes shining, and her voice trembling slightly: "Boss, I... I finally found... found you!" "..." The entire CBD area fell utterly silent at this moment. Bo...boss? What...whats going on? The boss of Silver Bay, Ye Bingning, actually called... called Ye Huan boss? What... what is going on!!! Bai Yu, who was just about to question Ye Bingning for slapping him, was dumbfounded. Aside, Zhou Shas mouth twitched uncontrollably, completely unable to grasp the situation. Big Sis why... why would she call this "swindler" boss? "Bi... Big Sis, is he... is he your boss?" Zhou Sha cautiously asked. "Obviously!" Ye Bingning glared fiercely: "I told you to stop and you dared to swing a knife? If I was a minute later, you would be in the morgue, understand!" Zhou Sha looked embarrassed, nodded a bit sheepishly. He felt a bit unconvinced, but knew better; just seeing this man catch a naked blade with his bare hands, break a machete with ease, told him he was no match at all. "Good to know!" Ye Bingning said displeased, then turned her head happily towards Ye Huan, "Boss, when did you return to Huaxia, why didnt you come find me..." Before she could finish. Ye Huan playfully pinched Ye Bingnings ear, twisting it hard: "Ye Bingning, youve done well for yourself, daring to send people to block me?" "Ah!" Ye Bingning inhaled sharply, grimacing: "Ouch, ouch, ouch, Boss, let go..." "You better explain clearly to me, or else..." "Boss, dont misunderstand, I... I wasnt blocking you, I brought them to recognize you as boss." Ye Bingnings eyes flickered twice, then jumped down from Ye Huan. She turned to look at the Silver Bay "security" team, removed the lollipop from her mouth, and waved her hand: "Ye Huan is my boss, what should you call him!" Everyone looked bewildered. Werent they supposed to teach Ye Huan a lesson and make him look bad, and thereby establish their reputation? How... how did it turn out that Big Sis has "switched sides"? What is this all about! "The boss of the boss is still called the boss, you bunch of idiots!" Ye Bingning gritted her teeth and cursed angrily. "Go... good evening, boss!!" Over four hundred "security" personnel awkwardly shouted in unison. This time, they werent exuding any murderous aura, instead, they were full of "stupidity"... However, their voices remained loud and clear, causing the hundred or so subordinates with machetes beside Brother Tiger to tremble in fear. "Whose people are they?" Ye Bingning pointed at them. Brother Tiger shivered instantly, his lips trembling. He brought over a hundred subordinates here primarily to ride the "wave of fame". If he could cooperate with Silver Bays return to the streets, his reputation would surely soar, but who knew, the person he intended to chop down was actually the boss of the boss of Silver Bay, thats just ridiculous! What is this all about! Brother Tiger was on the verge of tears. Under Ye Bingnings indifferent gaze, he slowly raised his hand: "I... I, they are my people..." "What are you doing here with them?" Ye Bingnings eyes flickered with a cold glint: "You are planning to take action against my boss, arent you?" "I... I... I wouldnt dare!" Before Brother Tiger could finish... Ye Huan smiled and said, "Bing Ning, this Brother Tiger not only plans to act but intends to kill me too!" "What!" Ye Bingnings face was full of anger, "Take them all down!" The hundred or so subordinates surrounding Brother Tiger "consciously" threw their machetes to the ground and then collectively knelt down. Grimacing, Brother Tiger too knelt straight down. "You really have a death wish." As soon as Ye Bingnings curse fell, Brother Tiger wailed and collapsed to the ground, a crimson handprint appearing on his face. Yet he dared not hesitate, enduring the burning pain, he resumed his kneeling position. Ye Bingning looked at Bai Yu, speaking coldly: "And you, I remember you wanted to spend a million to have me finish off my boss, right?" "Gulp." Bai Yus throat moved with difficulty, his legs trembling, unable to utter a single word. With his head lowered, disbelief spread across Bai Yus face; he couldnt believe everything happening before his eyes. Ye... Ye Huan isnt... isnt he just a poor guy living off the Liu Family? Isnt he just a fake boss of Silver Bay? But if hes a fake, why does he know Ye Bingning, the boss of Silver Bay? And why does Ye Bingning call him boss? Though he faked being the boss of Silver Bays Ye... In reality, hes the boss of the boss of Silver Bay!!! At its peak, Silver Bay was an equal force to the four great families. Even now, though it has weakened, it still holds absolute control over the gray industries of Celestial Sea, making it fearless against the four great families! Ye Huan was her boss, which... which means all his plans were shattered! His entire heart turned dark, filled with despair. Filming when defeating Liu Tianyun? Playing it on loop at Ye Huans grave? Just having the status of Ye Bingnings boss meant who would dare touch Ye Huan! "Slap!" One slap... "Slap!" Another slap... "Slap!" "..." After ten slaps, Bai Yus face was already swollen. Yet he still kept his head down, not daring to make a sound. Ye Bingning took a bottle of 1976 Royal Salute from one of the subordinates and washed her hands as if they were dirty. At the same time, she shouted sternly: "Kneel!" "Plop." Bai Yu dared not hesitate and knelt down. He gritted his teeth, shifted his eyes slyly, and tugged at Brother Tiger. "Ye... Ye boss, Im sorry, please forgive me!!!" Bai Yu shouted, kowtowing loudly to Ye Huan. As he kowtowed, his heart was filled with indignation. But there was no choice; if Ye Bingning were truly ruthless, his life would be in jeopardy! Receiving a hint, Brother Tiger hesitated for two seconds while gritting his teeth, then joined in kowtowing to Ye Huan, pleading for "forgiveness". The big brother did this, naturally leading his group of subordinates to emulate as well. "Thud, thud, thud." The sound of kowtowing echoed continuously. The scene became quite spectacular. The onlookers in the surrounding buildings stared at this scene in a daze, their faces long devoid of shock. Because, with such shocking events happening in rapid succession, they were already aesthetically fatigued. Even if Brother Tiger and his people committed mass suicide on the spot, they wouldnt be surprised... "Boss, how about I make them..." Ye Bingning took the toothpick from Ye Huans mouth and put it into her own. She spoke coldly, making a throat-slitting gesture. Almost frightened out of their minds, the hundreds of people kowtowing intensified their head-slamming. The thudding sound seemed to shake the earth. "Can I recognize you as elder sister, please? This is Huaxia, not the West..." Ye Huan, exasperated, grabbed the toothpick from her mouth, snapped it, and tossed it behind him casually, "Let them roll, theyre annoying to watch." He said, waving his hand with a face full of impatience. "Thank you, Bodhisattva, Ye Boss, you really are a living Bodhisattva, may you live a long life, and have a harmonious family!" Sear?h the ovelFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Bai Yu and Brother Tiger rejoiced, leading their subordinates in preparation to slip away. "Hold on!" Ye Bingnings eyes widened in anger: "What are you thinking? My boss is kind-hearted, but I am not!" Brother Tigers group revealed tearful, sobbing expressions again... At this moment... "Woo-woowoo-woowoo-woo." The sound of police sirens rang out... Chapter 108: The Brothers of Silver Bay Are All Good Citizens! Chapter 108: Chapter 108: The Brothers of Silver Bay Are All Good Citizens!Dozens of armed special forces instantly surrounded the scene. Qin Ya got out of the police car, her face turned blue: "In broad daylight, daring to gather so many people, what do you intend to do!?" The group led by Brother Hu, who usually act like mice in front of cats when they see the police, were overjoyed to see this squad of special forces, as if they had seen their own parents. They rushed up with tears of joy, stretching out their hands: "Officer, please take us away quickly!" Before they could finish speaking. Ye Huan spoke seriously: "Officer, please arrest them quickly. These thugs were instigated by Bai Familys second young master, Bai Yu, intending to storm Tianyun International with knives to attack employees and disrupt work order." "The brothers from Silver Bay Security Group were having a fall outing and just happened to pass by. Seeing injustice, they drew their knives to help, risking their lives to deter these armed thugs." "If not for them, Tianyun International wouldve been in danger. I suggest that the municipal department award all the brothers from Silver Bay the Lei Feng Citizen Certificate!" As he spoke, he even wiped away "tears of emotion," with an impressive acting skill. Qin Ya raised an eyebrow, looked at the hundreds of machetes on the ground, then at Brother Hu and his group: "Any truth to what he said?" As the captain of the criminal police team, she naturally would not fully believe Ye Huans statement. But Brother Hu taking over a hundred boys in broad daylight, all carrying machetes, couldnt possibly be up to any good! With this in mind, her gaze became incredibly profound as she closely watched the changes in Brother Hus expression. Brother Hu looked embarrassed and did not speak. Leading subordinates armed with knives into someone elses company, aiming to harm employees and disrupt work, would surely warrant a death sentence multiple times over. But to not admit it... Feeling the cold eyes of more than four hundred people from Silver Bay on him, he shivered. If he didnt admit it, even if the police didnt sort him out, Silver Bay certainly would. With a look of "grievance," Brother Hu nodded to acknowledge: "A... a bit inaccurate, but ba... basically thats it..." Then, a comical scene unfolded. sea??h th N??elFir.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Since there werent enough police cars, Brother Hus over a hundred little brothers had to board the dozen or so vans they had come in, "escorted" to the police station by the police cars, forming a "beautiful landscape." "Ms. Ye, thank you so much indeed." "If it werent for the Lei Feng comrades from your Silver Bay helping out, our company would definitely have faced casualties!" Ye Huan said with a face of "gratitude," even shaking Ye Bingnings hand up and down in thanks: "Thank you so much." Ye Bingnings mouth twitched, and she awkwardly smiled: "Its normal... normal, helping others has always been the creed of Silver Bay, haha..." "Right, right, helping others, haha!" Zhou Sha, beside them, put on a "kind" smile. The "Lei Feng citizens" of Silver Bay all nodded in agreement. Qin Ya coldly surveyed this group of "strong contenders for the Oscar performance award." "Alright, Im now going to apply to the company for funds to publish a front-page article in the Celestial Sea Daily, greatly commend the heroic deeds of the Silver Bay brothers!" As Ye Huan spoke, he prepared to leave. The next second, his face turned dark. A shiny pair of handcuffs were locked onto his hands. "Come with us!" Finally, under the watchful eyes of Silver Bays "Lei Feng citizens," the last police car at the scene drove away with Ye Huan. ... "Name." "Ye Huan." "Age." "22." "Gender." "Officer, surely you can at least distinguish genders?" Ye Huan said irritably. In the dim interrogation room, Ye Huan held a toothpick in his mouth, sitting in a lazy manner on the interrogation chair. Since he was only assisting with the investigation and was isolated behind bars, his hands were free. In front of him was a recorder, along with a female officer and a male officer. The female officer, Qin Ya, was in charge of questioning, while the male officer was responsible for taking notes. "Stop wasting time, state your gender!" Qin Ya said blandly. "Officer, cant distinguish genders, can you still be a qualified officer? Can you still be an excellent officer?" Ye Huan asked. "Weve arrested a few transgenders here, so its necessary to ask," Qin Ya said playfully, "Or are you a transgender too shy to say it?" "Officer, since youve said so, I feel obliged to prove it to you!" "Prove?" Qin Ya raised an eyebrow, "Prove what?" Ye Huan didnt finish his words and silently put his hand into... "What are you trying to do!" Qin Yas face flushed, angrily slamming the table as she stood up. "What? Of course, to prove whether Im male or female." Ye Huan said with a smile. Qin Ya took out a pair of handcuffs, angrily saying: "Alright, how dare you act indecent in the interrogation room?" "Damn, who acted indecently?" "You... isnt what youre doing indecent?!" "I am not!" "Damn it, still arguing?!" Qin Ya was both angry and embarrassed, turning her head away, not daring to look. "Officer, I was just taking out an ID, how is that indecent?!" Ye Huan said grievously, taking the ID out of his pants pocket to hand to Qin Ya. "ID?" Qin Ya was stunned. "Nonsense! What else could I take out besides the ID? The ID clearly states my gender. I was afraid you wouldnt believe me, so I took it out!" Ye Huan said with firm words. Suddenly, he had an expression of sudden realization, blinking: "Or, Officer, did you think I was taking out..." At this point, Brother Huan, with a face of heartbreak, slapped the table in front of him: "As an officer, how can you have such a dirty mind?! I must strongly criticize you!" Qin Yas face was extremely unpleasant. Indeed, from her perspective just now, she did subconsciously think Ye Huan was... This bastard... Qin Ya gritted her teeth and angrily grabbed Ye Huans ID, checked it, and gritted her teeth saying: "Looks like a transgender, but actually isnt?" Ye Huan, with a face of "indignation," spoke: "Officer, its bad enough you have a dirty mind, but why resort to verbal attacks on me when upset? Youre losing your professional ethics!" "Who are you talking about!" Qin Ya was angry again, slamming her hand directly on the table, creating a crack. "Cough... cough cough." The male officer beside cleared his throat as a hint. Qin Ya realized her loss of composure, quickly adjusted her demeanor, returning to an expressionless state. The two officers, looking at Ye Huan whistling, suddenly had a serious expression. They noticed that from the beginning of the interrogation, the rhythm had been firmly in Ye Huans control, and their emotions had also been tightly grasped by him. Qin Ya believed that the incident at Tianyun International was definitely not that simple, which is why she brought Ye Huan back. Now she felt her judgment was correct. Did not capture the wrong person! This man named Ye Huan is definitely no ordinary person! "Any criminal record?" Qin Ya asked coldly. "Officer, you are wrong about me. I, Ye Huan, have always acted with integrity, definitely a law-abiding citizen!" "Law-abiding citizen?" Qin Ya sneered, naturally not believing Ye Huans words. She handed Ye Huans ID to the male officer, "Print out a copy of his file." Chapter 109: SSS-Level Top Secret File! Chapter 109: Chapter 109: SSS-Level Top Secret File!As expected. Staring at the dossier that only listed the name, gender, and date of birth, Qin Yas eyes gradually narrowed into slits, her gaze becoming incredibly deep. A normal persons dossier would typically detail their addresses from childhood to adulthood, the schools attended, jobs worked, and hospitals visited. Ye Huans dossier doesnt resemble one that a normal person would have at all! His identity is definitely not ordinary... Originally, she just wanted to bring Ye Huan back for cooperation in the investigation, who knew she would uncover such a big "secret." "Ye Huan, dont you want to explain why your dossier only has this much information?" Qin Ya stood up, calmly waved the dossier in front of Ye Huan. "Dossier?" Ye Huan rubbed his chin in thought. He remembered that before Master Gou had him venture into the Dark World, he was specifically taken to visit a high-level leaders home in Huaxia and instructed the old man to classify his dossier as top-secret. Could it be that their police department doesnt have the necessary clearance? With this in mind, he said, "Officer, you cant access my dossier probably because you dont have the necessary clearance." "What a joke!" The male officer shouted angrily, "Our Celestial Sea City Criminal Police Unit can access everything except for SSS-level classified dossiers, are you trying to tell us that your dossier is classified?" "Yeah, now that you mention it, I remember that my dossier is indeed SSS..." Before Ye Huan could finish. Qin Ya slammed the table again, her face turning steely: "Ye Huan, I advise you to confess truthfully!" "People whose dossiers cant be found, theres always something fishy!" "Dont try to deceive us with some top-secret dossier excuse, we wont fall for it. Be honest now, and well be lenient, think it over yourself!" Ye Huan, with a face full of exasperation, said, "Officer, Im telling the truth, my dossier really is SSS, check it carefully." "Nonsense!" "Do you know what SSS-level classified means? Only top leaders, scientists with outstanding contributions, or members of mysterious military units have the right to be classified as SSS!" Qin Yas eyes widened with anger: "Ill give you ten minutes to decide whether or not to confess your crimes, take these eight words to heart - confess and be lenient, resist and face severity!" With that, she stopped speaking. Her eyes stared intently at Ye Huan, attempting to discern any clues from his expression. But, other than a face of "aggrievement," Ye Huan showed no other expression. This made her both angry and ashamed, gnashing her teeth. Such good acting, not a single crack in his expression, he is definitely not an ordinary person. Taking a step back, an ordinary person in an interrogation room would be somewhat nervous, even breaking out in cold sweat, with awkward demeanor and behavior. Someone as relaxed as Ye Huan, treating the interrogation room like "home," cant be an ordinary person? Someone hanging out with those gangsters at Silver Bay, can they be ordinary? Those gangsters even considering themselves as good citizens? Thats an insult to the term! As for the SSS-level dossier, thats even more impossible. Only people with extremely special identities, or those who have made great contributions in science, or high-level leaders, have their dossiers classified as top-secret. The Ye Huan in front of her, doesnt match the aura of that kind of person at all. With this thought, Qin Ya furrowed her brows. Her face grew more solemn as she spoke, "Ye Huan, I advise you again, confess now, and youll be treated with leniency!" "Sigh!" Ye Huan sighed and said, "Officer, Im really not lying to you, Im truly SSS-level dossier." "Enough!" The male officer pounded the table and said, "If it were an SSS-level dossier, wed have received a warning by now from searching for so long!" Qin Ya also nodded in agreement. Because of the secrecy of SSS-level dossiers, to prevent anyone with ulterior motives from peeking, once searched, the system would automatically report to the special department, which would then handle the matter, such as by making a phone inquiry or visiting directly. "Oh, is that so?" The cloud of worry between Ye Huans brows instantly dispersed, reverting to his "annoying" demeanor. Qin Ya raised an eyebrow, her dissatisfaction showing on her face: "What kind of expression is that?" "Didnt you say that once someone searches an SSS-level dossier, theyll be given a warning? Im relieved then!" Ye Huan spoke with a serious face; earlier he was contemplating how to "prove his innocence," but now he had no such worries. Qin Ya was momentarily stunned, then her face turned steely. Shes seen people who are stubborn, but not someone who boasts while being so stubborn! This guy is really beyond hope! "SSS-level? Cant boast without a draft, can you?" "Giving you one last chance to confess." The male officer said with a cold face. "Officer, just wait for the warning, dont waste your breath." "Incurable!" The male officer barked, slamming the table as he stood up and walked out. Qin Ya also shook her head, turned off the recorder, and ended the interrogation. "Bang!" The loud sound of a door closing echoed, Ye Huan hurriedly shouted: "Hey, are you leaving? If youre leaving, let me go!" "My wife is still waiting for me to come back to a warm bed, dont waste my time!" "If you dont let me go soon, even if you beg me later, I wont leave!" Hearing the sounds coming from the interrogation room, Qin Yas face turned even grimmer, her pace quickening. The male officer was even more disdainful. Beg you to leave? Who do you think you are? Really think youre an SSS-level classified dossier holder?! What a joke! ... "Captain Qin, this person is too unappreciative, he must be thoroughly investigated!" In the hallway, the male officer said, full of indignation, "And a so-called classified dossier, truly shameless in bragging." "Yes, we should really look into him." Qin Ya nodded in agreement. At this moment, an officer ran over in a hurry. He adjusted his hats brim and saluted, "Hello, Captain Qin!" Qin Ya raised an eyebrow and said, "Whats so urgent? Havent I reminded you all many times to be thorough in your work?" "No, its...its..." The officer caught his breath, pointing behind him, "Its the special...special department people who are here, saying they need to see you." Special department people? Qin Ya was stunned. Suddenly, an "unrealistic" thought popped into her mind... Could it be...that bastard... The male officer felt the same, shivering slightly. Sar?h the n??el Fire.nt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Tap, tap, tap." The sound of urgent footsteps echoed, and a man in a special department uniform approached. "Is this Qin Ya? May I ask, did Officer Ma at your Criminal Police Unit detain and search a personal dossier of a gentleman named Ye Huan?" The man said in a calm voice. Qin Yas lip twitched, her voice somewhat unnatural: "Um...yes, is there...is there a problem?" "Release him at once, as quickly as possible." "Do you think youre qualified to access an SSS-level dossier?" "This time, youve crossed the line!" The man stared angrily, his voice cold. With that, he turned and left, leaving behind a stunned Qin Ya and her team. "Cap...Captain Qin, that...that Ye...Ye Huan, is actually...actually an SSS-level classified dossier?" The male officers lips trembled, utterly incredulous. An SSS-level dossier, thats...thats a top-secret dossier, that...that Ye Huan, what kind of character is he! "Quickly...go release him!" Qin Ya gritted her teeth and rushed towards the interrogation room. Chapter 110: Inviting the Gods is Easy, Sending Them Off is Hard! Chapter 110: Chapter 110: Inviting the Gods is Easy, Sending Them Off is Hard!"Yo, you two, why are you back again?" Looking at Qin Ya and the male officer outside the iron bars, Ye Huan crossed his legs and asked with a smile. "Mr. Ye... Ye, we made a mistake before, sorry, you can leave now." Qin Yas face showed embarrassment, and she bowed slightly to express her apology. "Sigh." Ye Huan smacked his lips and sighed, "I told you many times before that Im an SSS-level file. Why didnt you listen?" "It was our negligence, were sorry." "If apologies were useful, who would need the police!" Ye Huan loudly criticized. "Mr. Ye..." Qin Ya took a deep breath and forced a smile, "We are the police." "Oh, right!" "Look at my memory, almost forgot!" Ye Huan "blamed" himself by knocking on his head. Qin Ya was exasperated for a moment, holding her forehead and gritting her teeth, "Mr. Ye, now that you remember, cant you just leave..." "No way!" "As the saying goes, its easy to invite the gods but hard to send them away." "I wanted to leave just now, but you wouldnt let me. Now you want me to leave, and Im not leaving!" Ye Huan said with a face full of smugness, thoroughly enjoying himself. Qin Yas face turned livid, unable to utter a word. The male officer gave an awkward smile and said, "Mr. Ye, you... you are indeed the holder of an SSS-level file. Your time must be invaluable. How can you waste it here with us?" "Didnt you just not believe my file was top secret?" "I..." The male officer was extremely embarrassed. "You were right not to believe it just now, I really am not!" Ye Huan impatiently waved his hand, "Get out quickly, I need to catch up on my sleep." Catching up on sleep? S~ea??h the Novl?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The two were both stunned. No evidence showed Ye Huan was a criminal, at most just questioning. Detaining him here was against protocol. Given his status, who dared to keep him here! Isnt this just waiting for the special operations bigwigs to come cause trouble? "You..." Qin Ya took a deep breath and said, "What will it take for you to leave?" "Actually, its not that I dont want to leave." Ye Huan patted his belly helplessly and said, "But Im so hungry I cant move." "What do you want to eat, Ill buy it for you. You can leave after eating, alright?!" Qin Ya glared angrily. "Australian lobster, Brazilian roasted lamb leg, Italian pasta, French foie gras..." Ye Huan rattled off the dishes endlessly, and Qin Yas face turned black. None of these dishes are cheap. Altogether, theyll cost at least five thousand. Thats my entire months salary... But theres no choice; she had to first send this "Plague God" away. "Ill go buy it now!" Qin Ya gritted her teeth and stormed out. The male officer hurriedly opened the iron bars and made a "please" gesture: "Mr. Ye, you better come out first. Theres a table here, convenient for your meal later." "If youd been this smart earlier, would there be so much trouble now?" Ye Huan put his hands behind his back, walked to the interrogation table, and once seated, propped his legs right onto the table. The male officer was extremely embarrassed but could only stand aside with a forced smile. Inside, he felt like crying without tears. Who would have thought that someone mingling around Silver Bay would have an SSS top-secret file? But now, he tried his best to eliminate his dissatisfaction, or else he might make trouble for the criminal investigation team once he left. Thinking of this, the male officer nodded to himself and said, "Mr. Ye, would you like something to drink, tea or coffee..." As he spoke, a female voice suddenly came from the door. "Ye Huan!" Listening to this voice, Ye Huan was filled with black lines. Soon, the interrogation room door opened. "What were you thinking?" Liu Tianyuns brows furrowed, "Theyve already let you go, why arent you leaving, making me wait for you at the police station entrance for so long." "Wife, its not that I didnt leave, its that they wanted to keep me here for a meal..." "Nonsense, who would want to keep you here." Qin Ya walked in, took Liu Tianyuns arm, and said through gritted teeth, "Tianyun, your husband is simply... a rogue, he even wants to scam me for a big meal!" Ye Huans face darkened. Whats going on? These two women actually know each other? Feeling Liu Tianyuns unfriendly gaze, Ye Huan braced himself and said, "Wife, are you gonna believe her nonsense too?" "I do, weve been best friends for ten years." Liu Tianyun nodded, and Brother Huan couldnt help feeling dejected. What kind of world is this? A wife believes her best friend instead of her husband? Seeing Ye Huans despondent look, Qin Ya placed her hands on her hips with a smug face: "All right, Tianyun, just take your husband and leave. Its just a cooperation for investigation, and now he refuses to go. Unbelievable." Just outside the police station, after seeing Liu Tianyun, she angrily recounted what happened earlier. Who knew, Ye Huan turned out to be her husband. She was shocked for a moment, then went on even more "vigorously" denouncing Ye Huans "crimes," making him out to be a heinous criminal. "Youre good." As Ye Huan walked out of the interrogation room, he gritted his teeth and gave Qin Ya a thumbs up in sarcastic praise. Just as they stepped out of the police station, Ye Bingning and a group of "security guards" approached. "Boss, youre finally out. If you hadnt come out, I wouldve gone in to demand an explanation!" Ye Bingnings face lit up with joy, and she bent down... Leaping up, she lunged but landed on thin air. "Demand an explanation? You guys going in there wouldve been demanding a bullet, right?" Ye Huan dodged to the side, his face dark as Judge Bao. "Boss, why are you dodging me?" Ye Bingning pouted, looking displeased. Its hard to imagine, with her acting all cutesy like a little girl, that shes actually the big sister to this group of burly, fierce-looking men. "Bing Ning, men and women shouldnt be too close. Youre all grown up now, not the same as two years ago!" "And now Im married." "Let me introduce you, this is my wife Liu Tianyun, call her sis-in-law!" Ye Huan pointed to Liu Tianyun, blinking his eyes repeatedly. Sadly, his hints went unnoticed. Ye Bingning was momentarily stunned, then loudly questioned, "Wife? You actually got married? Boss, you jerk, didnt you promise that youd marry me when I grew up!" "I... I..." Ye Huan stumbled, almost spitting out ten mouthfuls of blood on the spot. He quickly covered Ye Bingnings mouth, turned to Liu Tianyun, and smiled awkwardly, "Wife, this little girl is talking nonsense, dont believe a word!" "I didnt expect you to be interested in such little girls, Ye Huan. Youre really something." Liu Tianyuns face remained calm as she gave a thumbs up to Ye Huan with a cold smile, then drove away. Struggling free from Ye Huans "clutches," Ye Bingning looked unhappy and shouted at the cars receding figure, "You old hag, Im already eighteen. Besides, if you dont want such a good man as boss, I do!" Watching the car disappearing into the distance, Ye Huan was on the verge of tears. What kind of situation is this? He made a little progress in his relationship with his wife, and now hes misunderstood as a pervert, probably resetting it all to zero. Resetting means the days of having kids with his wife are yet again delayed, which means prolonging the day when he truly masters his mentors teachings. At this rate, even if his mentors time runs out, he wouldnt be able to have a baby with Liu Tianyun! Thinking of this, Brother Huan became even more frustrated. "Ye Bingning, tell me, when did I ever say I would marry you?" Ye Huan tugged at Ye Bingnings ear, gritting his teeth. "Boss, dont pull, it hurts..." Ye Bingning blinked her big eyes, looking aggrieved. "Still pretending to be aggrieved, huh?" Ye Huan couldnt help but yank harder. "You definitely said it, in my dream, you promised youd marry me when I grew up. You cant go back on your word!" Ye Huan was so angry he laughed, "You know it was a dream, right?" "So what if it was a dream? I dont care, Boss, you cant be a scumbag!" "You left without a word two years ago, so I had to go back to Huaxia. But for the past two years, I dreamed of you every night!" "Besides, boss, you wont lose out marrying me. Im... Im not who I was two years ago!" She said it with a slight blush, proudly puffing up her chest. Her figure was quite stunning! But the "upright" Brother Huan didnt even glance at it. Ye Huan patted Ye Bingning on the head with a smile, "Ye Bingning, please understand one thing: theres a huge age difference between us. Plus, I have zero interest in little girls." "What little girl? Im already an adult. I can use my ID to go to an internet cafe!" Ye Bingning glared at him, displeased. "All right, enough said. Be good, your brother needs to go home and reassure his wife now. Ill find you when I have time, bye-bye!" Ye Huan smiled and, seizing the moment, snatched the car keys from Ye Bingnings waist with lightning speed, then jumped onto the nearby "Firebird" and sped away. By the time Ye Bingning snapped out of it, only Brother Huans words echoed in the sky, "Borrowing your car, will return it sometime!" "Why do you keep treating me like a little girl, jerk!" Ye Bingning stomped her foot in anger, lightly biting her lip. Turning around, she noticed her underlings checking out her figure, and her eyes instantly turned cold. The security guards shivered, quickly wiping the drool off their mouths, bowing their heads in embarrassment. Ye Bingnings gaze was ice cold: "Is it nice to look at?" The voice seemed to plunge them into an abyss. The underlings found it hard to breathe, their faces turning purple. In a second, Ye Bingning switched from "little girl" to "demon lady." Her expression turned icy, her voice chilling to the bone, engulfing everyone with fear, sparking a cold sense of dread from deep within: "Next time, Ill gouge out your eyes!" Chapter 111: These two, actually colluded together? Chapter 111: Chapter 111: These two, actually colluded together?"Xiao Yu, get in the car." At the entrance of the police station, a green "Beetle-style" car slowly rolled down its window. Its hard to imagine that the young master of the prestigious Bai Family, which tops the four great families of Celestial SeaWhite Impermanence, who is also the confirmed heir of the Bai Family, would drive such an old-fashioned QQ car, which has been out of production for decades. Bai Yu opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat with a sullen expression. Due to the cars very old model, it emitted noise comparable to "square dance music" with just a start and no acceleration, the decibels were extremely high. White Impermanence was wearing a training suit and had combed his hair slick back. He looked at Bai Yu and then smiled, "Whats wrong, unhappy?" "How could I be happy!" "Brother, I cant take it anymore. You must make a move and help me kill Ye Huan!" Bai Yu cursed angrily, his face filled with rage. He found that ever since he met Ye Huan, his status as the second young master of the Bai Family had become merely symbolic. Whenever he was in Celestial Sea, wasnt he always doing as he pleased? Even when studying abroad, he was followed by a bunch of people trying to curry favor. But ever since he clashed with this harbinger of doom, Ye Huan, he has been beaten by security guards or slapped by others. Now, under the intimidation of the Yinluowan, he actually fell to his knees in front of hundreds of people, begging for Ye Huans forgiveness. Who could bear this! The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Bai Yu felt suffocated with rage, wishing he could swallow Ye Huan whole and alive. White Impermanence looked at him and sighed, "Ye Huan, for now, cannot be touched." "Why!" Bai Yu glared in anger and questioned, "Ye Huan is practically stepping on my head, and youre not helping me?" "Xiao Yu, I hope you can understand; Ye Huans identity is too mysterious. We must not act rashly before we have fully understood his background." "The plan to take over Tianyun International is proceeding orderly. Once Tianyun International begins expanding production capacity, we can seize it from Liu Tianyuns hands in one go." "Moreover, the layout for the Exterminate Liu plan is complete and is at a critical stage. We must not let this matter cause unexpected complications and alert the enemy." Bai Yu nodded but still gritted his teeth, his face practically saying "oppressed." At this moment, White Impermanence spoke again. "As for Ye Huan..." White Impermanence still had a gentle and amiable appearance. In the next second, his features twisted together, becoming viciously grim, sending a chill down ones spine. Simultaneously, his voice became as delicate as a host from a Kabuki-cho host club: "Dare to humiliate my brother White Impermanence; hell certainly die once the Exterminate Liu plan is over!" "Ill skin him to make shoes and step on them!" "Ill cut his flesh inch by inch and make soup!" "Ill crush his heart and throw it into a septic tank!" "Ill make sure hes restless in death!!!" Bai Yu, used to White Impermanences change in demeanor as a brother, still felt a flicker in his eyes when White Impermanence mentioned the plans conclusion. Feeling a bit guilty, he said, "Brother, Im planning to go traveling abroad soon to relax." Hearing Bai Yus words, White Impermanences features relaxed, and he smiled with squinted eyes, looking like a big brother next door. "Hmm, its good to go out and unwind." "When you return to Celestial Sea, itll be the day I destroy the Liu Family." "By then, Ill turn Liu Tianyun into your personal plaything. You can do whatever you want with her." Bai Yu nodded obediently on the surface, but his eyes flickered with a crazy sheen. Wait until the end of the Exterminate Liu plan, return to Celestial Sea, and then take down Liu Tianyun? Ive already lost all face; can I wait that long?! Liu Tianyun, I didnt want to be this ruthless, but you forced me. Havent you always rejected me? Fine, lets see you reject me again tomorrow! If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for marrying a dead man. Ye Huan, just wait, Ill ruin your wife!!! ... *Burp~* Letting out a satisfied burp, Ye Huan walked out from a roadside ramen shop, looking content. Seeing the fifteen missed calls on the phone screen, Brother Huan clicked his tongue twice, looking smug. Women, oh women, truly creatures that say one thing and mean another. Just now, she was upset with me and left directly, but now shes calling back? And called more than ten times in a row? Obviously cant let go of me, but unwilling to admit it. Clearly charmed by my charm, but unwilling to show it. Sigh~ I could easily live off my looks, so why am I relying on talent? *Ring ring ring.* The phone rang again. Back on his motorcycle, after admiring himself in the rearview mirror for a while, Ye Huan bit a toothpick, answered the call, and then, with deep affection: "My dearest beautiful wife, hubby just finished lunch at the ramen shop, couldnt answer the call on time. May I know what you need, my dear wife?" "..." No sound from the other end of the line. Ye Huan was puzzled for a moment, then showed a playful expression. Why isnt Liu Tianyun speaking? Could it be shes too shy to speak? Damn! Sarch* The ovlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. As a qualified husband, if the wife is too shy to speak, shouldnt I give her a way out? Ye Huan cleared his throat. Just as he was about to speak... "Ye Huan, Im warning you, dont push your luck!" Liu Tianyun, feeling extremely nauseated by those disgustingly sentimental titles and speech, felt uncomfortable for quite a while. Ye Huan chuckled awkwardly, "Wife, I didnt do anything..." "Enough!" "Ye Huan, please get your identity right, dont forget we are only nominally husband and wife!" "Say those things to me again, and... Ill fine you!" Furious and through clenched teeth came the voice of Liu Tianyun from the other end of the line. "Fine? Wife, cant we talk this out?" "Talk this out? Ye Huan, please watch your words and actions, say such disgusting things again, and Ill make you pay for it!" From the other end, Liu Tianyuns face was as cold as ice. "Then wife, why are you calling me so many times? Surely its not because you miss me?" Ye Huan asked, looking suspicious. *Beep* Liu Tianyun didnt respond, directly hanging up the call. Over and over calling me husband, isnt it enough? Miss you? Only a fool would miss you! Meanwhile, Walker, sitting on the sofa in the CEOs office at Tianyun International, twitched at the corner of his mouth. Daring to speak to someone as imposing as Ye Huan like that, only Liu Tianyun as his wife could do it. He laughed awkwardly and said, "CEO Liu, no need to hurry, the contract can be signed anytime." "No, Im having him come back now!" Liu Tianyun took a deep breath and dialed the phone again. This time, she didnt wait for Ye Huan to speak. "Come to the company in ten minutes, hurry up!" *Beep* She said, ending the call once more. Looking at the already darkened screen, Ye Huan was filled with frustration and couldnt help but sigh. The long march to conquer Liu Tianyun has only just begun! He straddled the "Firebird." Suddenly, a piece of chewed gum was tossed out of a nearby Land Rovers window, landing accurately 0.5 centimeters in front of Ye Huan. If not for Brother Huans quick reflexes, it would have hit him. "Who the hell is this uncouth!?" Ye Huan shouted angrily. Then he showed a playful grin. With his excellent eyesight, he could vaguely discern the identities of the two people from their silhouettes even if the car windows had anti-spy protection. In that Land Rover. In the drivers seat was Zhao Zhenhai, Tianyun Internationals HR Director! In the passenger seat was Wang Tianbao, Chairman of Tianbao Pharmaceutical, who had inappropriate desires for the Meiying product formula! Ye Huans eyes narrowed, and he carefully followed the car on his motorcycle. These two are in cahoots? Interesting! Chapter 112: Old Ye Next Door Chapter 112: Chapter 112: Old Ye Next DoorYe Huan rode the "Firebird" motorcycle, chasing the Land Rover all the way to an alley entrance. A middle-aged woman in her fifties, with wavy hair, was counting the cash in her hand with a smile. After finishing, she welcomed Zhao Zhenhai and his companion into the building. The small building was dilapidated, but the decor was all in shades of pink. Any adult could guess what kind of business was being conducted inside. "Oh, young man, coming here in broad daylight? Come, come, come in!" The middle-aged woman returned downstairs, smiling broadly as she pulled Ye Huan inside. "Ahem." Even though Huan had seen many big scenes, being misunderstood as coming in broad daylight... made his old face flush with embarrassment. Ye Huan cleared his throat and spoke earnestly, "Im just looking for a place to rest. Auntie, dont overthink it." "Rest?" the woman replied with a knowing look, then whispered, "Young man, youre new here, right? First time? Let me introduce you, we have five hundred, three hundred..." "Those two just now..." "Theyre regulars, they chose the five hundred option!" the woman said meaningfully, "If you also want the five hundred option, Id recommend Xiaoling, shes sure to make you satisfied!" "Are they next door?" Ye Huan asked. "Yes, they are next door!" Ye Huan nodded, pulled out seven red bills, and handed them to the woman, "No change needed, and dont tell those two that Im here." The womans smile widened as she nodded repeatedly, fawningly leading Ye Huan upstairs. Neither noticed a woman in a police car by the roadside, who had watched the entire scene... They reached the third floor. Without knocking, the woman used a key to bring Ye Huan into the room. The woman named "Xiaoling" was fast asleep on the bed. The womans eyes flashed fiercely, and she forcefully slapped Xiaolings back. Instantly, she was awakened with a start. "We have a guest, get up!" After the harsh reprimand, the woman smiled again at Ye Huan, gave a thumbs-up, and exited the room. Ye Huan locked the door, then focused on listening to the movements in the adjacent room. "You men just cant settle down in broad daylight." "Cant you have some sympathy for us?" "Dont you know that we work nights and rest during the day, not even letting us sleep properly?" Xiaoling flicked her long, dark hair, cursing loudly. She walked to the window, stretched lazily, and closed it. Because the window was wide open, the policewoman by the roadside saw her dressed quite scantily. The policewoman was stunned, her face changed drastically. ... "Tianbao, how did things go?" Zhao Zhenhai lit a cigarette, asking cheerfully. Wang Tianbao was also smoking, blowing out a cloud of smoke, "Things got messed up by that guy Ye Huan, no progress yet." The two sat side by side on the bed, with two women kneeling behind them, massaging their shoulders. At this point, Zhao Zhenhais face turned ashen, questioning, "Didnt work out? You were just supposed to discuss cooperation with Liu Tianyun. How could it not go well?" "Its all that Ye Huans fault, no respect at all. He ruined my cooperation with Liu Tianyun," Wang Tianbao said with annoyance. His eyes darted slightly, not mentioning that he had let Ye Huan trick him into speaking. In fact, his original task was simply to reach a cooperation with Tianyun International and force them to increase supply. As for the secret formula of the product, that was his own greed. Zhao Zhenhais face was extremely ugly, "Ye Huan deserves to die. Not long ago, he even got my nephew kicked out of Tianyun International, and my nephews face was swollen from a beating, now still lying in the hospital." If he knew the one who had swollen Zhao Yongles face was actually Wang Tianbao beside him, he would surely be enraged to the point of vomiting blood! "Zhenhai, I deeply sympathize with your nephews situation," Wang Tianbao patted Zhao Zhenhais shoulder, then made a slicing gesture across his neck, "Why dont we let Young Master Bai deal with Ye Huan... finish him off?" "No way!" "Young Master Wuchang instructed not to touch Ye Huan for now. Hes still investigating Ye Huans background." Zhao Zhenhais words left no room for negotiation, leaving Wang Tianbao grinding his teeth in frustration again. His heart was full of resentment. As the chairman of Tianbao Pharmaceuticals, a company as large as Tianyun International, being "provoked" by Ye Huan again and again, who could tolerate it? Clenching his teeth, he asked, "Zhenhai, really no way out?" "Ye Huan is the boss of Ye Bingning, the big boss at Silver Bay. If we act rashly, were definitely the ones wholl die. Lets not rush." Zhao Zhenhai said calmly. In the next second, his tone shifted: "Tiantian, Mr. Wuchang instructed that you must reach a collaboration with Tianyun International within five days, you havent forgotten that, right?" "No!" Wang Tiantian exhaled a smoke ring and said, "Dont worry about it; I can handle it." His words werent unfounded. After all, Liu Tianyun had shown strong willingness to cooperate. As long as the condition about understanding the formula was relaxed, the collaboration could easily be secured. Zhao Zhenhai saw his confidence and nodded satisfied: "Tiantian, as long as your sales channels connect with Tianyun International, you can indirectly force them to increase their supply, allowing the plan to proceed to the next step." "As soon as Liu Tianyun orders to expand production, itll be Tianyun Internationals doom!" "Lets do this, Ill use some behind-the-scenes methods to support you, but you must secure the collaboration as soon as possible, understood?" Wang Tiantian nodded repeatedly, indicating he understood. At the same time. They didnt notice that every word was overheard by "Old Ye next door." Ye Huan sat on a plastic stool by the wall, his eyes narrowed into slits, his intent clear. Zhao Zhenhai was indeed mixed up with Wang Tiantian, and both were lapdogs of the Bai Family. Their goal was to force Tianyun International to expand production. And they said as long as Liu Tianyun expanded production, it would be Tianyun Internationals doom? Expanding production would significantly increase the supply and prevent the current market shortage of the Meiying product. Scalpers wouldnt be able to sell it to regular people at exorbitant prices. This would not only inject a strong booster into the market, discouraging the scalpers arrogance, but also allow Tianyun International to gain more profit. However. Why would such an action spell doom for Tianyun International? Ye Huan pondered with a serious expression. In fact, according to logic, with Tianyun Internationals current daily output of 500,000 cans, the product shouldnt be so scarce. After all, a can of skincare cream is enough for half a month or even a month, and the price at 139 isnt cheap for regular people, who wouldnt buy many at once. Logically, Meiying shouldnt be so scarce. Theres definitely something fishy here! At this moment, Xiaoling was ready. She tied up her hair, seeing Ye Huan in deep thought, and began to yell, "What are you pretending to be deep in thought for in broad daylight?" Cursing, she moved as if to do something inappropriate to Brother Huan. "Sis, you go to sleep, dont mind me." Ye Huan pushed her away. Xiaoling sneered and said: "I really cant stand guys like you, coming to a place like this, and still acting pure? Isnt that ridiculous!" As she spoke, she reached out again, trying to attack Brother Huan. Ye Huan scowled and swiftly dodged away. "Whats that supposed to mean?" Xiaoling raised an eyebrow. Ye Huan, with a head full of frustration, ignored her. Just then, movement came from next door again. "Gentlemen, do come again~" Sear?h the ovelFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Following the seductive voices of two women, the sound of a door slamming shut came from next door. Zhao Zhenhai and the others left, and Ye Huan stood up, preparing to leave. "Hey, youre thinking of leaving?" "Do you look down on me?" "Go ask around, my skills are a top-ranked master level! Who doesnt praise me? Accepting my service is your honor!" Ye Huan waved his hand, unconcerned: "Then go give that honor to someone else, I dont need it." As Brother Huan placed his hand on the doorknob, ready to leave. Unconvinced, Xiaoling leapt and pressed Ye Huan down, "Dont believe me, huh? Ill make sure you see how powerful I am today!" Ye Huan twitched his mouth, trying to push Xiaoling off him. At this moment, the door was kicked open. "Bang!" A squad of armed SWAT officers burst in. Leading them was a female officer: "Prostitution raid, everyone, hands on your heads, squat down!" Chapter 113: Second Imprisonment Chapter 113: Chapter 113: Second ImprisonmentJust in one day, I ended up in the "palace" twice, and the second time was due to a misunderstanding. Ye Huan grasped the iron bars with both hands, on the verge of tears but unable to cry. "Whats with that expression? Dare to do it but not dare to admit it?" "I tell you, even if your file is top secret and your identity is special, you cant break the law!" "Going to that kind of place in broad daylight, youre something else!" "Disgraceful!" Qin Ya gave a thumbs up, letting out a cold laugh. Originally, she was just nearby to get some lunch, and after eating, she saw Ye Huan sneaking into the alley. But thinking of Ye Huans mysterious identity, she thought he was on a special mission, so she stayed on guard at the alley entrance, ready to rush in case of any situation. Until she saw the scantily clad Xiao Ling closing the window, she suddenly realized this alley was an illegal establishment! Afterward, there was the scene of "crackdown, hands behind your head, squat down." Ye Huan looked aggrieved, saying, "Captain Qin, Im really innocent, you can ask that Xiao Ling, I didnt receive any services." "Nonsense, the evidence is conclusive, and you still dare to argue?!" Qin Ya blushed, slapping the photo on the table. The photo showed Xiao Ling jumping and, catching Brother Huan off guard, pinning him down. "This... this is all a misunderstanding!" Ye Huan shook the iron bars, speaking pitifully. The response he got was Qin Ya waving the photo in her hand. Looking at this photo, Ye Huan felt even more hopeless. With this photo, even jumping into the Yellow River wouldnt wash him clean. "Knock knock knock." There was a knocking sound at the door. "Captain Qin." A male officer pushed the door open and sat in another interrogation chair, "This time we arrested 20 women involved, one brothel keeper, and one..." He paused awkwardly and said, "One male offender." His eyes revealed a hint of disbelief. As the owner of a top-secret file and the husband of the stunning President Liu Tianyun, and he still went to such a place in broad daylight? He really wanted to shout, "Is President Liu not beautiful enough, or do you simply not appreciate her?" At this moment. Ye Huan exclaimed, "One? You mean you only caught me?" "Duh!" "Who in their right mind would go to such a place in broad daylight?" "Our police force always organizes raids at night, this time weve really broken new ground just for you!" Qin Ya tapped the table, glaring angrily. Three black lines appeared on Ye Huans forehead. Zhao Zhenhai and Wang Tianbao managed to escape; they really got lucky! Just you wait, Ive marked this grudge, I, Ye Huan, wont rest until I settle this score! Gritting his teeth, Brother Huan sighed and spoke again: "Officer, it truly was a misunderstanding, why dont you believe me?" "Misunderstanding? Are you telling me your reason for going there was to carry out a special mission?" Qin Ya rebutted, with a playful look. After hesitating for a while, Ye Huan nodded earnestly, making Qin Ya laugh out of exasperation. She had seen thick-skinned people, but none thicker than Ye Huan! Evidence is concrete, yet he still argues! "Since you only spent money and didnt actually engage in illegal activities with that Xiao Ling, according to the regulations, you only need to have a relative bail you out, and youll be free to go." Qin Ya said meaningfully, with a hint of gleefulness in her eyes. As she expected, Ye Huans face instantly turned as dark as Bao Qingtians. Relatives, in name, he only had his wife Liu Tianyun, and his master the dog! Ask Liu Tianyun to come? Impossible! If that girl knew he ended up in jail for this, and she had to bail him out herself, shed definitely explode in anger. In that case, the "Long March" to conquer her would be over before it even started! But calling his master to bail him out? Thats even less realistic. He would first mock him for ten minutes, then scold him for not bringing him along. What a tough spot! Ye Huan ground his teeth, filled with worry. Seeing him like this, Qin Ya was utterly thrilled. The memory of Ye Huan coercing her into buying him a lavish meal at lunch was still fresh in her mind. Now, finding a chance for revenge brought her immense satisfaction. "How about this, Ye Huan, Ill call Tianyun and ask her to come pick you up." "After all, with your special identity and having to carry out missions in such places, we cant waste your time, right?" As Qin Ya spoke, Ye Huans face grew darker, and her smugness increased. But just when her smugness peaked, three knocks sounded on the door. "Knock knock knock." A middle-aged man in a police uniform pushed the door open, laughing heartily: "Captain Qin, as expected of you, the bright star of our police team!" "The identity of that brothel keeper has been verified; she turns out to be a fugitive on a red notice, engaged in human trafficking, and running illegal establishments." "Now that youve captured her, youve secured another great achievement, in another ten years, even my position as chief might be yours, hahaha." As soon as he finished speaking. "..." The entire interrogation room fell silent. Human trafficking, running illegal establishments? That...that brothel keeper turned out to be a fugitive on a red notice? What...whats happening!! So, Ye Huan was really on a mis...mission? Qin Ya and the male officer were filled with disbelief. "Captain Qin, why are you all silent?" the chief asked. Sear?h the N?velFire.nt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Gulp." Qin Ya gulped hard, weakly looking at Ye Huan. Seeing Ye Huans nonchalant expression, she took several big gulps of water, only to find her throat still unbearably dry. "By the way, Captain Qin, how did you manage to track and capture this fugitive on the red notice?" the chief asked again. "What do you mean she managed it? Im the one who tracked her down!" Ye Huan banged on the iron bars, letting out a cold snort. The chief turned his head over. Seeing Ye Huans face, he nearly fainted on the spot. Gosh, isnt this...this young man the one with the top-secret file? Clearly, after the male officer reviewed Ye Huans file in the morning, the chief was also notified by the special services. "You...younger, didnt you leave? Why are you back again?" the chief asked, swallowing and probing. Ye Huan, gritting his teeth, cursed, "This matter, you should ask your police detective captain!" "Whats going on!" the chief turned to Qin Ya, eyes brimming with discontent. Qin Ya was on the verge of tears, stammering for ages, unable to get a word out. "What, werent you just being all arrogant, now you cant speak? Its okay, if you cant, I will!" "Mister, youre the chief of this station, right? Id like to ask if your police detective captain overeats and has nothing to do!" "I risked my life infiltrating the enemys base, she barged in and disrupted my plan entirely without a word." "Dont you know how cunning that fugitive on the red notice can be?" "And without a word, insisted on bringing me here, refusing to believe I was on a mission!" "If the mission had gone off track and made us lose the big fish weve been hunting for two years, can you bear that responsibility?" Ye Huan slammed the table, face livid with anger. Chapter 114: I’m hungry and can’t walk! Chapter 114: Chapter 114: Im hungry and cant walk!The director listened to Ye Huans remarks, his face turning ashen. He spoke in a low voice: "Qin Ya, explain yourself properly to me!" Qin Ya looked aggrieved and couldnt speak. "Oh, I get it now!" Ye Huan looked enlightened and said with a cold laugh, "Captain Qin, could it be that you knew the madam was a wanted fugitive, so you captured me to take the credit and refuse to let me go?" "Thats not true!" Qin Ya slammed the table with both hands, her face full of anger: "I, Qin Ya, stand tall and upright, how could I do such a thing?" Ye Huan responded with a light laugh, the meaning obvious: Do you think I believe you? Brother Huan was overjoyed inside. Wasnt this little girl arrogant just now, threatening to call Liu Tianyun to report? Come on, report it to see if Im scared! Qin Ya was furious. She realized she couldnt communicate with Ye Huan, so she looked at the director and hastily said: "Director, I really didnt intend to do that." "I just saw him go into an alley, so I wanted to support his actions, but then I found out he was going to find... that thing, so I called for police to start an anti-vice operation..." Before she could finish. The director looked exasperated and scolded in a low voice: "Do you honestly think a mysterious figure with top-secret files would do such a thing in broad daylight? Would such a character be so sordid?" Qin Ya stomped her foot, nearly in tears: "I didnt think that far." "You better properly apologize later to calm his anger, do you hear me?" "I... I understand..." Qin Ya nodded with a face of grievance. The directors expression finally relaxed a bit. He rubbed his hands together, opened the iron door with a respectful face, and then smiled awkwardly: "Mr. Ye, right? Im really sorry, this... was just a simple misunderstanding." "Misunderstanding?" "I think I should report this matter to my grandfather and let him assess whether its a misunderstanding. What do you think?" No sooner had Ye Huan finished speaking. The director staggered, almost fainting from fright. Oh my, this... this young man is a rich second generation, and hes probably just here to gain experience... He has access to top-secret files, so his grandfather is definitely a high-level leader! If he reports this, the consequences will be unimaginable! "Qin Ya, quickly apologize to Mr. Ye!" The director gritted his teeth, speaking in a deep voice. Qin Ya pouted, looked aggrieved, and bowed ninety degrees: "Mr. Ye, Im sorry, it was a negligence in my work!" "Is an apology enough?" Ye Huan sneered, "Luckily, the fugitive didnt escape. If she had, the consequences would have been unimaginable! How many young girls would have been forced into becoming tools for her profit under her luring? Can you imagine that?" Upon hearing this. Qin Ya gritted her teeth; her face showed no trace of grievance. Evidently, she understood the seriousness of the situation. Taking a deep breath, she said, "I... Im willing to accept any punishment!" "Punish severely!" "Suspended for three months, and youll work at the traffic police division to command traffic and reflect on yourself!" The director said coldly. Being demoted from the captain of the criminal police to an ordinary traffic officer was a severe punishment. Qin Ya nodded in agreement. "Mr. Ye..." The director bowed ninety degrees with an apologetic face and said, "On behalf of the Celestial Sea City Police Department, I offer you a sincere apology. I will definitely initiate internal checks and corrections to prevent similar incidents from happening again." "Hmm, thats fine, you may leave!" "Alright." The director turned his head. Then he smiled awkwardly again and turned back: "Ill go, and Mr. Ye, you..." "Oh dear, Im hungry and cant walk!" "I really want to eat Italian pasta, Australian lobster, Brazilian barbecue, Mongolian roasted whole lamb..." "I really want to eat French foie gras, Japanese sushi..." Ye Huan looked around, patting his stomach with a smirk. Qin Ya came to her senses, her face turning ashen. This bastard, he wants to extort a grand meal from me? "Ye Huan, Im warning you, dont push your luck..." Before she could finish roaring. The director stared into her eyes, his eyes full of warning. "Ill go buy it, alright!" Qin Ya stomped her foot in anger and stormed out, slamming the door. ... Carrying several big bags of expensive food, Ye Huan swaggered out of the police station under the watchful eyes of many officers. Before leaving, he didnt forget to destroy the photos Qin Ya had taken. In name: Mission photos, cannot be leaked! In reality, to prevent her from showing them to Liu Tianyun! Watching Ye Huan leave, the corners of the police officers mouths twitched. Qin Yas face was black and blue, clenching her fists. "Everyone, keep your eyes peeled. In the future, avoid this young man, he is here in Celestial Sea for a special mission, understand? Do not disturb him!" "Of course, if he requests help, fully cooperate!" The director pointed at Ye Huans back, reminding the officers on the scene. The officers nodded repeatedly, etching Ye Huans image into their memory, secretly thinking not to offend this "Plague God" in the future. The consequence of offending him... Captain Qin Ya was the best example! Everyone looked at Qin Ya with a sympathetic glance, and the officers dispersed. "Report to the traffic police unit tomorrow, thats all!" After saying this, the director walked back into the police station with his arms behind him. If he knew that Ye Huan wasnt executing any mission at all, and theres no senior leader-type "grandfather" above, he would definitely be so angry he spits out ten mouthfuls of old blood on the spot! Actually, Brother Huan didnt expect that the madam would turn out to be a fugitive; he was still thinking about how to be released without notifying family. This coincidentally gave him a way out... not just any way, but seizing the opportunity to step on the way out and show that little girl Qin Ya what hes made of! Ye Huan whistled lightly, rode on the Firebird, and set off for Tianyun International. sea??h th N?velFire.nt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Suddenly, he realized he had forgotten something, his face immediately darkened, and he hurriedly pulled out his phone. Goodness, 50 missed calls, all from Liu Tianyun. Oh no. It must have been because Little Ling pounced on him, causing the volume button to be compressed against the ground and silenced, so he didnt hear the ringtone. Not daring to answer the phone, Ye Huan rode his bike like the wind racing towards Tianyun International. ... Outside the CEOs office at Tianyun International. Ye Huan was on high alert, cautiously peeking through the peephole to check the situation inside the office. Seeing the situation inside, Brother Huan shivered. Liu Tianyun was handling work-related documents. If it were just ordinary document handling, there would naturally be nothing to fear. The main thing is... Liu Tianyuns pretty face was already covered with frost. Ye Huans mouth twitched. Going in now would probably be a dead end. Better wait until her anger subsides before coming in... Turning to leave... "Ye Huan, what are you doing standing at the door? The CEO is looking for you, hurry in!" Chapter 115 Bai Yu’s Conspiracy Chapter 115: Chapter 115 Bai Yus ConspiracyBy a stroke of luck, Tang Yao walked out of the elevator holding a stack of documents. Ye Huans face turned dark, and he was ready to sprint... At that moment, with a "click," the door opened. "Care to explain?" Liu Tianyun, with a frosty face, directed her phone screen at Ye Huan. Ye Huan swallowed hard and turned his head. Upon seeing the photo on her screen, Brother Huan staggered in place, almost keeling over with rage. The message was sent at 2:30 PM? Wasnt that the exact time Qin Ya caught him? This woman sent the photo to Liu Tianyun the moment she caught him? So, did all his efforts at the police station to destroy the photos amount to nothing? Damn! At this moment, Tang Yao covered her mouth, blushing in shock: "Ye Huan, you... you actually..." Her eyes turned extremely odd as she turned away and dashed into the office. "You... dont misunderstand, I... I just..." "Misunderstand? With evidence right here, what am I supposed to misunderstand?" Liu Tianyun pointed at the phone screen: "Ye Huan, dont get it twisted. What you do out there is none of my business, nor do I care, but..." She took a deep breath, glaring: "But, when you do such disgraceful things, make sure my friends dont catch you. Its humiliating for me!" Ye Huan was on the verge of tears, nodded. With that photo, no way to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River. Liu Tianyun shot him a fierce glare and turned to enter the office. ... Celestial Sea City, Bai Family Mansion. Bai Yu walked out of the bathroom, drying his damp hair. In his room, a woman was tightly bound, her eyes wildly frenzied, screaming loudly. Looking at her, Bai Yu felt a chill. But that terror just lingered momentarily; he soon regained his usual demeanor... Bai Yu picked up a small plastic bag from the bedside table, gazing at the white powder inside, his lips curling into a wicked smile. At the police station, through coercion and inducements, alongside promising to get Tiger Brother out as soon as possible, he made Tiger Brother take all the blame, revealing the location of the hidden drug powder. Tiger Brother took the fall, White Impermanence paid his bail, and thus he was released by the police. After that, he eagerly went to the location Tiger Brother mentioned. After acquiring the drug powder, he invited a newly acquired internet celebrity home to test its effects. The internet celebrity drank the water mixed with the drug powder, and soon fell unconscious, waking again within minutes as a wild beast. Within a few minutes, Bai Yu nearly faced death. Finding a chance to restrain the woman, Bai Yu bound her tightly and managed to break free. Though frightened, overall, he was very satisfied with the drug powders effects, worthy of a perfect score of one hundred! The effect was simply too incredible!!! Bai Yu couldnt help but laugh heartily, overjoyed. "Liu Tianyun, arent you cool and pure?" "Tomorrow, Ill turn you into nothing but a craving beast!" "Hahaha!" After laughing heartily for a while, Bai Yu removed a plane ticket to the Maldives from under the pillow, smacking his lips with amusement. Once Ye Huan finds his wife marked everywhere by someone else, it will frustrate him to no end. Yet by the time he discovers it was me who did it to Liu Tianyun, I will already be lounging in the Maldives with a blonde wave under the sun on the beach. Ye Huan will surely have no outlet for his anger and collapse on the spot, hahaha! Imagining Ye Huans face turning from frustration to anger, and finally despair, Bai Yu again erupted in a fit of maniacal laughter. "Ye Huan, opposing me, Bai Yu, is the biggest mistake of your life!" "With my intellect, I can easily have you in the palm of my hand!" "What do you have to fight against me?" Bai Yu chuckled coldly, taking a note from under the pillow. Gazing at the phone number written on the note, he appeared utterly respectful. Carefully, he keyed in the digits written on the note one by one... ... Looking at the fully executed contract in front of her, Liu Tianyun still showed signs of disbelief. Tianyun International had indeed become a strategic partner with the Finske Europe division. Whats more, Finske would provide all sorts of assistance free of charge to help Tianyun International open channels in Europe. "President Liu, according to my calculations, once Tianyun International officially enters Europe, if the product supply is sufficient, it can capture ten percent of the market share within a year." Walker, the president, smiled at the door. Liu Tianyun nodded, her face filled with joy. Ten percent of the European market could provide an annual net profit of 100 to 200 billion US dollars. In this way, within five years, Tianyun Internationals size could equal Liu Group, becoming a true giant corporation. "President Walker, I really appreciate it," Liu Tianyun said from the heart, extending her hand. Walkers expression slightly changed, glancing at Ye Huan devouring food with no sign of displeasure. He refrained from shaking hands with Liu Tianyun. In his mind, a big figure like Ye Huans woman wasnt something even a strand of her hair he could touch. "Sir, Ill take my leave, enjoy your day," Walker waved to Ye Huan, speaking softly, seemingly afraid of disturbing him while he ate. "Oh wow, this is delicious." "And this too, its so good!" Ye Huan sat in a corner chair of the office, gobbling down food without any pretense, paying Walker no mind. Sear?h the Novl?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The table before him was crowded with luxurious dishes "extorted" from Qin Ya. In a mere five minutes, dozens of dishes were nearly consumed. "No sense of image at all!" Liu Tianyun looked exasperated. Walker, with a sheepish grin, responded: "Alright, thats it. President Liu, we hope for a successful collaboration, feel free to call me if you need any help. Goodbye." "Okay, goodbye." Liu Tianyun nodded in acknowledgment. Walker turned to leave. At that moment, his phone rang. "A number from Huaxia Celestial Sea City?" HuaxiaCelestial Sea, gazing at the caller ID information, Walker looked puzzled. He recalled only discussing collaboration with Tianyun International during his visit to Huaxia, only giving his number to Liu Tianyun. With curiosity, he answered the phone. "Hello, may I ask if you are Pre... President Walker?" Walker squinted slightly: "Who are you, and how did you get my number?" "I... Im Bai Yu, the second young master of the Bai Family in Celestial Sea City." "Do you dare call yourself young master in front of me?" Walkers words lacked emotion but were overwhelmingly pressuring. On the other end, Bai Yus face turned pale, hurriedly saying: "President Walker, I apologize sincerely for my inappropriate wording!" "Also, I... Im a good friend of your assistant Mr. Sorrel, your number was... was given to me by him." Poor Bai Yu, unaware that Sorrel had been fired for crossing Ye Huan, losing his assistant position, possibly already at Walkers private villa on the other side of the world... There, still night, Sorrel likely became a snack for the few pythons residing in the villa... Listening to Bai Yu claiming to be Sorrels friend, Walkers eyes turned cold. He was about to mention Sorrel had been fed to snakes and warn Bai Yu never to call again... Ye Huan approached, cupping his hands around his mouth like a megaphone. Walker acknowledged with a nod, pressing the speaker button... Chapter 116: There’s no living Buddha like you in the temple, I won’t worship! Chapter 116: Chapter 116: Theres no living Buddha like you in the temple, I wont worship!"What did you call me for?" Walker said coldly. "Oh, I... I heard from Sorrel that youre meeting with Miss Liu Tianyun of Tianyun International tomorrow to discuss the cooperation, right?" "Yes, any problem?" On the other end of the phone, Bai Yus face turned extremely excited, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Oh, its just... just that Ive booked the presidential suite of a five-star hotel according to Mr. Sorrels instructions and prepared the highest level luxury banquet for your business discussion. What do you think..." Walker covered the phones microphone section and looked at Ye Huan. Ye Huans mouth curled up, and he nodded slightly. "Sorrel has told me about this. Text me the hotel address." Walker said indifferently, then hung up the phone. On the other end, Bai Yu was stunned for a while. Soon after, he jumped up excitedly and laughed loudly, "Liu Tianyun, youll see tomorrow how brilliant I, Bai Yu, really am, hahaha!" ... "Ye Huan, weve already settled the cooperation with Finske Europe, why did you still accept Bai Yus invitation?" In the office, Tang Yao asked bewilderedly, unable to understand Ye Huans intentions. "Offering unsolicited favors, surely they have hidden agendas!" Ye Huan and Liu Tianyun said in unison. "Honey, we truly are a couple with united hearts, thinking alike." Ye Huan blinked, smiling sweetly. "Get lost, stop spouting nonsense!" "..." "Fine, Ill leave. If this place doesnt welcome me, another surely will!" Ye Huan left the CEOs office, gritting his teeth with a gloomy expression. Before this, Walker had already left, but under Ye Huans instructions, he canceled the plan to return to Europe tomorrow and prepared to attend the banquet Bai Yu arranged. "Hey, you havent thrown out your leftovers yet!!" Tang Yao came to her senses and shouted loudly down the hall. But Brother Huan had already returned to the security office, drinking tea comfortably, sitting on the sofa enjoying a shoulder massage from a beauty. "Sister Zhang, youre skipping work as soon as you became group leader, isnt that a bit inappropriate?" "Its your fault, I brought you meals so many times at noon and you werent there, worrying me all afternoon." Zhang Huimin glared at Ye Huan, "Spill it, where did you go fooling around at noon, not even coming back to eat." "Im being wronged!" Ye Huan put on an honest face, "How could I go fooling around? My whole heart is tied to you, Sister Zhang." Zhang Huimins pretty face blushed, "Slick talker." "You dont believe me? If you dont believe, Ill prove it to you now! I definitely have your name written on my heart!" Ye Huan said, and made a move to take off his shirt, starting to unbutton it. "Dont dont dont!" Zhang Huimins face turned red enough to drip blood, quickly helping Brother Huan button up, even though she knew Ye Huan was joking, she still felt sweet inside. While buttoning, the two were nearly face to face, Zhang Huimins little heart was "thump thump" nonstop. "By the way, Xiao Ye, theres something I want to tell you..." Zhang Huimins eyes dodged a couple times, and tentatively asked, "I... I took back the task of negotiating cooperation with Wang Tianbao from Fang Hong, didnt let her execute it, you... you wont blame me, will you?" "No, youre the group leader, you make the call." Ye Huan smiled. "Mm-hm, good." Zhang Huimin nodded. "But Sister Zhang, youre so kind, be careful not to be targeted by some wicked wolves." "What wicked wolves, you?" Zhang Huimin said, her pretty face turning scorching hot. "Exactly, Ive got my sights on you." Ye Huan said earnestly. Zhang Huimin couldnt help but burst into laughter. After finishing the last button, she flicked her jet-black hair and said softly, "No more teasing, I have to accompany Fang Hong to negotiate a contract later, almost late." S~ea??h the novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Ye Huan made a show of sighing regretfully, "Then Ill have to temporarily let go of you, my little rabbit, go quickly." Zhang Huimin, too embarrassed to listen further, covered her face and ran out of the security office. Ye Huan watched her departing figure and sighed again. If Liu Tianyun had half the good character of Zhang Huimin, probably in ten months, the child would already be born! ... Arriving at Tianyun Internationals underground parking lot, sitting in the passenger seat of an old Passat, Zhang Huimin buckled her seatbelt, showing an apologetic expression, "Sorry sorry, Im a bit late." As soon as she closed the car door, Fang Hong pressed a button on the steering wheel, and the passenger door made a faint "click," already locked... "No worries, I was just about to thank you, Leader Zhang." Fang Hongs mouth curled into a mocking smile, "If there was a title for the living Buddha, it would surely belong to Leader Zhang." Living Buddha? Zhang Huimin also caught the sarcasm in Fang Hongs words but didnt mind, assuming she misunderstood it. She chuckled and said, "Fang Hong, after all, we joined Group Three on the same day, so we should be helping each other." "Besides, lets put those past things behind us. I believe we can become good sisters." "Lets work together to take Group Threes performance to the next level!" Listening to these words. "Heh!" Fang Hong started the car, letting out a cold laugh: "Zhang Huimin, do you think pretending to be innocent, kind-hearted, and a good person gives you some superiority?" "Good sisters, huh? Youve got Zhao busted and me demoted, and now youre telling me we can be good sisters?!" "Youre disgusting!" Her sudden tirade of insults left Zhang Huimin bewildered on the spot. Then, an evil laugh resounded from the cars back seat. "Xiao Hong, maybe your leader is just genuinely beautiful and kind. Dont judge a gentleman with the heart of a villain, haha." Fang Hong shook her head disdainfully: "She likes to play Bodhisattva; even when her man retaliated against me, she took back the task of collaborating with Wang Tianbao that shed handed to me." "Her goal is to snag this task herself, seduce Wang Tianbao into bed to get the task done, earn the commission, and become Wang Tianbaos secret lover!" "Her petty schemes, I see right through them!" After speaking, Fang Hong glared at Zhang Huimin with eyes full of venom. Zhang Huimins face turned anxious, "Fang Hong, what are you talking about? Im not that type of person..." Before she could finish, a blood-red handprint appeared on her face. "Smack!" Retracting her hand, Fang Hong regained her disdainful look, "You think I, Fang Hong, dont know what kind of person you are? Ive seen through you!" "You..." Zhang Huimin clutched her cheek, tears glistening in her eyes. At this moment... The robust male voice in the back seat sounded again: "Tsk tsk, all for money, willing to crawl onto Wang Tianbaos bed?" "But fortunately, she didnt get ruined by that fat pig, otherwise the selling price would definitely drop quite a bit." "Fang Hong, this time the quality of goods is truly top-notch, Madam Wang will surely be very satisfied!" Listening to these words, Zhang Huimins face turned panicked: "Who... whos talking..." She didnt finish her sentence... Because through the rearview mirror, she clearly saw a middle-aged man in the back seat switch from lying down to sitting up. His mouth grinned wide, showcasing two dazzling gold front teeth. "You... who are you!!" Zhang Huimin shouted in panic. "Who am I? Im a straightforward person, so let me be blunt: Im a trafficker, specializing in selling beauties like you, haha!" The man with gold teeth squinted wickedly, licking his sausage-like lips, "Little girl, with your figure, I can definitely sell you for a good price, dont you worry..." Trafficker? Beauty trafficker? Figure? Terror flashed in Zhang Huimins eyes as she clawed at the car door, only to realize it was locked tight. By now, it was clear shed been set up. Fang Hong had teamed up with this gold-toothed man to sell her to a place of ill repute! Her voice trembled uncontrollably, "Fang... Fang Hong, why... why..." "Zhang Huimin, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself!" "I specifically targeted your penchant for playing the good person to con you into helping me with a supposed failed negotiation!" "You probably thought youd help me negotiate while actually seducing the opposing companys manager into bed to snatch my commission, right?" Fang Hong smiled sinisterly, "Zhang Huimin, dont you think Ive got you all figured out?" "I didnt. I genuinely wanted to help you with the deal!" Zhang Huimin pursed her lips tightly, her eyes reflecting sincerity, and her right hand moved slightly. "Ridiculous! I dont worship any Bodhisattva, especially not a fake one like you!" Fang Hong cursed, stomping the brakes. She swiftly grabbed Zhang Huimin by the neck and snatched her phone from her right hand. "Help!" "Recipient: 185XXXX (Note: Ye Huan)!" But the message didnt send. "Facing death, still daring to pull tricks?" Fang Hong swung her hand with all her might, slapping Zhang Huimin hard. The sound of the slap echoed inside the car. Zhang Huimin saw stars and passed out. Fang Hong rolled down the window, tossed Zhang Huimins phone into a street-side trash bin, started the car again, and drove off into the distance. Chapter 117 Ye Huan Boss, do you know a woman named Zhang Huimin? Chapter 117: Chapter 117 Ye Huan Boss, do you know a woman named Zhang Huimin?Celestial Sea City, a certain abandoned factory. The factory gate was tightly shut, with only slivers of sunlight streaming in through the side windows. Golden Tooth was sitting with his legs crossed on a cement pipe in the warehouse, holding a large cigar in his mouth and a phone in his hand. Even in such a dim environment, his two front teeth made of pure gold were incredibly dazzling. "Uncle Jin, still cant reach Madam Wang?" Fang Hong pressed his shoulders, cautiously asking. "Not yet, lets wait a bit longer, she works at night, so she might be sleeping now." Golden Tooth exhaled a smoke ring, glanced at the unconscious Zhang Huimins splendid body on the ground, and said with an evil grin: "Little Hong, I must say the goods you got this time are top quality, haha." "I predict selling her for about three hundred thousand wouldnt be hard." "Ill give you a hundred thousand then!" Hearing this, Fang Hong cursed Golden Tooth in her heart. The woman I brought in, youre just providing a channel, and you dare take the bigger share? She cursed inwardly but didnt dare speak up. After all, she didnt want to provoke Golden Tooth, and with a hundred thousand, she could pay off her debts and leave Tianyun International without any worries. Thinking of this, Fang Hong nodded silently, her resentment dissipating slightly. However, more than the money, she hoped Zhang Huimins fate would be even more miserable. Fang Hongs mouth curled into a sinister smile, and she said: "Uncle Jin, women of Zhang Huimins caliber are rare. Shouldnt you take this opportunity to enjoy it?" "Haha, thats exactly what I was thinking." "Once I get in touch with Madam Wang, Ill enjoy myself properly!" Golden Tooth laughed lecherously, licking his sausage-like lips. Fang Hongs smile grew wider upon hearing this. She secretly resolved to record their encounter and upload it online so the whole world could see Zhang Huimins disgrace. At this moment, Golden Tooths phone connected. He stubbed out the cigarette butt, and with a wicked grin, said: "Madam Wang, hows business lately?" On the other end, Madam Wang swallowed and wiped the sweat off her forehead. If Ye Huan were here, he would definitely recognize her. She was the old madam with wavy curls in the alley. Sitting on the interrogation chair, surrounded by the expressionless chief and a bunch of officers. "The l-latest business has been quite good." "Oh? I hear its more than just good. Your net profit every night is several thousand, isnt it?" Golden Tooth grinned, "Tonight Im planning to see Xiao Ling. Make that reservation for me, haha!" Madam Wang wiped the sweat off her forehead: "No problem. Xiao Jin, youre not just calling to make an appointment for Xiao Ling, are you?" "Of course not, Madam Wang, have I ever disappointed you with my calls?" "Ive got a perfect woman here, much better than Xiao Ling, definitely good enough to open a thousand-dollar room." "If youre free, come see for yourself, or I can deliver her to you. We can negotiate the price, how about it?" Golden Tooth squinted, laughing wickedly, his lecherous gaze slowly scanning Zhang Huimin on the ground, drooling. "..." There was a brief silence. Madam Wangs eyes darted nervously before she spoke again: "Where are you? I happen to have time to come and inspect the goods." Hearing this, Golden Tooths face changed dramatically. He hung up immediately, turning off his phone... Meanwhile, in the police stations interrogation room. With a "beep," the call was disconnected. Having worked in criminal investigation for over thirty years, the chief instantly understood Madam Wang was trying to signal something to the other side. Furious, he snatched the phone from Madam Wangs hand and handed it to Qin Ya, shouting: "Track the location of the other partys phone and contact Ye Huan!!!" ... Seeing Golden Tooths drastic change in expression and his abrupt phone disconnection, Fang Hong was alarmed: "Uncle Jin, w-whats wrong, is there some special...special situation?" "Something went wrong on Madam Wangs side!" Golden Tooth shouted loudly. From the first day of cooperating with Madam Wang, they had agreed to deliver goods every time, never disclosing his fixed location due to safety concerns. Madam Wang couldnt possibly come to him to inspect goods, so hearing her say that, he knew something had happened to Madam Wang! Fang Hong, panicking, swallowed hard and said: "So, so what do we do now?" "Drive, and temporarily escape Celestial Sea!" After cursing, the two of them carried Zhang Huimin together and ran towards the Passat outside the factory. In their panic, they didnt notice the doorstep at the factory gate and fell directly to the ground. "Damn it, who has a death wish, daring to bump into me?" Zhou Sha fell to the ground, swearing loudly. Beside him, several men in security uniforms drew out electric batons, looking fierce. Golden Tooth looked up and was immediately struck with a baton, his head bleeding. Clutching his forehead, he howled: "B...big brother, have mercy, it was an accident." "An accident can just bump into me? Youre quite bold!" Zhou Sha spat out blood, cursing. Golden Tooth was on the verge of tears, never imagining such bad luck. Anxious, if Madam Wang was caught by the police, his phone would definitely be tracked. The police would find this place soon, and hed be finished, selling women, hed be executed ten times over! Without hesitation, he took out a bank card from his pocket and handed it over: "Big brother, this... this card has a hundred thousand, consider it compensation for you." "Bumping into me and only paying a hundred thousand? Your money is worth quite a lot, huh!?" Zhou Sha kicked Golden Tooth in the abdomen, sending him flying ten meters back into the factory. Nearby, Fang Hong slyly extended her hand, trying to sneak the card into her pocket. Next moment, she sheepishly smiled and pulled her hand back. "Is my money something you can pick up?" Zhou Sha glared at her, smiling, then raised his hand... Sear?h the ovlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "PA!!!" A resounding slap echoed in the factory, sending Fang Hong flying, screaming as she landed inside. "Bad luck!" Zhou Sha spat on the ground, turning his head aside. Seeing the badge hanging around Zhang Huimins neck, he was suddenly surprised. Tianyun International Sales Department - Zhang Huimin? Isnt Tianyun International where the "boss of the boss" works? At this moment, Zhang Huimin, still unconscious, instinctively let out a weak cry for help: "Little...Little Ye, save...save me." The voice was extremely faint, but Zhou Sha heard it. Little Ye? The boss of the boss seems to be called Ye Huan, could it be such a coincidence? "Little Ye, hurry...hurry and save me..." Zhang Huimins frail voice called out again. Zhou Sha hesitated for a few seconds, then decided to try and dial Ye Huans number. ... Tianyun International, Security Office. "The last location is XX Factory?" Ye Huan, watching In the Night Garden to pass the time, received a call from the police station, and his face darkened instantly. The so-called mysterious task was just an excuse, he had no idea that "Madam Wang" was involved in trafficking women. Now, he actually had to go "execute a task." "The police will fully support your operation, blocking roads near the factory, alright, thats it." Qin Ya hung up the phone after speaking. "This young master really has a hard life." Staring at the now-dark screen, Ye Huan cursed through gritted teeth. The next moment, the screen lit up again. Caller: 186... (Zhou Sha) Zhou Sha? Isnt he a subordinate of Ye Bingning? Why would he be calling me? Gazing at the callers name with confusion, Ye Huan answered the call. "Is it Boss Ye Huan? Do you know a woman named Zhang Huimin?" Zhou Sha asked cautiously. "Yes, I know her, why?" Ye Huan frowned deeply, seemingly realizing something and feeling intensely uneasy. He asked immediately: "Are you at XX Factory?" On the other end, Zhou Sha looked up at the factorys nameplate, surprised: "Boss Ye Huan, how did you know?" Ye Huans eyes were as sharp as a blade, filled with cold light and sternness: "Im coming over now, keep them all under control for me!" Chapter 118: Then call someone, I’ll wait for you. Chapter 118: Chapter 118: Then call someone, Ill wait for you."Boss Ye Huan, youre here." Zhou Sha slightly bowed as a sign of respect. "Little Zhou, thank you this time." Ye Huan got off the motorcycle, patted Zhou Sha on the shoulder, and expressed heartfelt gratitude. After all, if it werent for Zhou Sha stumbling upon this, Zhang Huimin would have been in grave danger. Zhou Sha smiled: "I just did what I could. By the way, Miss Zhang is still in a coma. We had a nearby stores female clerk help move her to a van to rest." "Alright, Ill handle them first." A deep murderous intent flashed in Ye Huans eyes, making Zhou Sha shiver unexpectedly. As for the "them" he mentioned... Of course, it was Golden Tooth and Fang Hong! "Ah!!!" Entering the factory, one could see Golden Tooth and Fang Hong clutching their stomachs, curled up on the ground, their wails becoming extremely feeble. Both had head injuries, looking extremely miserable. Before Ye Huan arrived, Zhou Sha had given them a severe lesson. "Boss Ye Huan, its them." Zhou Sha led Ye Huan to the interior of the factory, pointing at the two fallen figures. As he spoke, he waved his big hand. Two "security" underlings each carried a bucket of water, pouring it over their heads. The splash instantly brought them back to consciousness. Fang Hong slowly lifted her head, and upon seeing Ye Huan, she cried out in terror, "Ye...Ye Huan?" The only response she got was a vicious slap. "Smack!!" The slap from Ye Huan sent stars flying in front of her eyes, nearly knocking her out cold. "You answer when I ask, got it?" "Huh?" "I said, you answer when I ask!" Upon saying that, the sound of a slap echoed again. Fang Hong dared not make another sound, clutching her burning cheek, nodding vigorously like a chicken pecking at rice. "What was your purpose in asking Zhang Huimin to come out?" Fang Hongs eyes dodged twice, her voice lacking confidence: "I...I asked her out to help...help me discuss cooperation..." "You answer, what was her purpose?" Ye Huan glanced coldly at Golden Tooth and asked in a chilling voice. Golden Tooths mouth twitched twice. If he told the real purpose, just the charge of "trafficking women" alone would be enough for ten executions... He awkwardly smiled and said, "Fang Hongs purpose was to have Zhang Huimin come over and help Fang Hong talk cooperation with me..." Before he could finish... Golden Tooths eyeballs almost popped out. Ye Huan crushed his left knee with a stomp, his wail piercing the sky, so miserable that the brothers from Silver Bay nearby all covered their ears, turning away, not daring to watch anymore. "I have ten thousand ways to get the truth from you; if you dont believe me, feel free to try." Ye Huans words were full of a sinister intent that sent shivers down Golden Tooths spine. Golden Tooth swallowed hard, displaying panic on his face. At this point, didnt he know that Ye Huan in front of him was genuinely dangerous? No longer daring to hide anything, he endured the intense pain and said through gritted teeth, "Fang Hong found me, said...said she could get a beautiful woman, absolutely could...could fetch a good price, and her purpose was...was simply out of spite toward Zhang Huimin, wanting... wanting revenge on her." "Is what he said true?" Ye Huan turned his head, coldly asking Fang Hong. "Ye Huan, I...I know I was wrong..." Fang Hong said, another slap mark appearing on her face. Retracting his hand, Ye Huan coldly said, "I told you, you can only answer my questions. If you say anything unnecessary, bear the consequences." Fang Hong was on the verge of tears, regretting her scheme against Zhang Huimin. Why had things been progressing so smoothly previously, but now there were suddenly so many complications? Why! Seeing Ye Huan raise his hand again, she hurriedly pulled her thoughts back to reality, nodding repeatedly: "Golden...Uncle Jins words are true." "Why do this?" Ye Huans face was emotionless, "I remember Zhang Huimin took back the task of negotiating a cooperation with Tianbao Pharmaceuticals from you, right?" "She did take it back, but Captain Ye, dont be fooled by her appearance!" "Zhang Huimin on the surface took back that task, but I guess her real intention is to use herself to entice Wang Tianbao at Tianbao Pharmaceuticals into cooperation, and along the way become his mistress, thus reaching the pinnacle of life!" Fang Hong got more excited as she spoke. "Oh? Do you have any evidence to support this assumption?" "No evidence!" Fang Hongs words were "firm and resolute". "Smack!!!" Fang Hongs cheek instantly swelled up, spewing a mouthful of hot blood, her face as pale as paper. "I told you, if you keep talking nonsense, suffer the consequences yourself." Ye Huans eyes were icy as he grabbed Fang Hong by the neck and lifted her up, questioning, "How did you set up Zhang Huimin?" Within seconds, Fang Hong was already breathing heavily. She didnt dare to hesitate and began explaining the situation steadily. It turned out that for money, Fang Hong usually engaged in that kind of business in a bathhouse, and accidentally came across Gold Tooth, and coincidentally learned that he was involved in the business of trafficking women. For a moment, she hatched a plan, telling Gold Tooth that she knew a woman with a figure and appearance that could be called top-notch, who could definitely fetch a good price, but needed a share of the profit afterwards. Gold Tooth agreed without a second thought. After all, he was just providing a channelif there was a way to make a lot of money, why not? Fang Hong went to the company the next day and told Zhang Huimin she had a deal she couldnt reach and needed help. As she expected, Zhang Huimin, this "living Buddha," agreed without any hesitation, even saying that she could be sought out for any difficultiesit was her responsibility. While showing her gratitude on the surface, Fang Hong internally grew more convinced that Zhang Huimin was a "living Buddha" who liked to pretend to be good. If it were her, being thus embarrassed by someone, the first thing shed do upon rising to power would be to repay the challenge a hundredfoldhow could she help negotiate a deal? What followed was tricking her into the car, locking the doors, and taking her to the factory, encountering a series of events with Zhou Sha. Ye Huan laughed coldly, and flung Fang Hong to the ground. Regaining the "right to breathe," Fang Hong gasped for air. Ye Huan knew Fang Hong was malicious, but he never thought she could be so wicked. In essence, Fang Hong assessed Zhang Huimins innocence with a petty persons mentality. Zhang Huimin sincerely helped her, only to be thought of as pretending to be good. And just because of this, she thought of selling Zhang Huimin into that kind of place? Disgusting! The whole factory was silent as the grave. Ye Huans extremely cold gaze made Gold Tooth and Fang Hong extremely terrified, their entire bodies icy. They felt their throats were incredibly dry, unable even to swallow their saliva. "Ive been in Huaxia for so long, I never thought about killing anyone." "Youve certainly set a precedent." "Alright then, tell me, how do you want to die?" Ye Huan dangled a toothpick in his mouth, hands in pockets, his face calm as the breeze and clouds. But it was precisely this calm demeanor that scared Gold Tooth and Fang Hong, causing them to wet themselves on the spot. They knelt on the ground, trembling all over, their bodies releasing control out of fear, as a pale yellow liquid flowed down their thighs, emitting a pungent stench. "Captain Ye, I beg you for mercy, please!!!" Fang Hong cried out in terror, continuously banging her forehead on the ground, splitting it open in just a few hits. "Captain Ye, we can talk about this, dont do anything rash!" Gold Tooth, not knowing Ye Huans full name, followed Fang Hong in calling him "Captain Ye." sea??h th Novl?ire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. His face was filled with terror, but his eyes darted around, threateningly he said: "Kid, I... Im warning you, dont do anything rash!" "My... My brother is Silver Bays Master Zhou Sha, he... hes the second in command at Silver Bay, with hundreds of followers beneath him..." "If you do... something to me, he... he wont let you off!" Hearing this, Ye Huan couldnt help but chuckle, revealing a meaningful expression: "You actually know a big shot from Silver Bay?" Seeing Ye Huans tone change, Gold Tooth assumed Ye Huan was scared, and sneered coldly: "Thats right, Im just that awesome. Im giving you three minutes to let me go, or Ill make a call, and Zhou Sha will bring four hundred guys down from the sky to beat you to death!" "Oh? The four hundred men youre talking about, are they all from Silver Bay?" "Of course!" Gold Tooth looked proud, "Like I said, Silver Bays second-in-command Zhou Sha is my brother; he can bring four hundred guys over and beat you to death in minutes!" "Uncle Jin, youre that impressive!" Fang Hongs face lit up with joy, looking at Ye Huan with a sense of pride, "Ye Huan, you still have time to beg for mercy; otherwise, when Uncle Jin makes that call, youre doomed!" "Then go ahead and call, Ill wait for you." Ye Huan offered his phone. "Huh?" Gold Tooth was stunned. "Im telling you to call them," Ye Huan said, shaking his phone, "Call." Gold Tooths eyes dodged twice, then he said bravely: "I... I dont want to make things complicated, let me go now and I wont make the call, Ill spare your life." He was feeling incredibly guilty; he didnt know any Zhou Sha, he had just made it up. At this point, Ye Huan took back his phone, smiling as he shook it again: "If youre not going to call, I will." Chapter 119: Gather all brothers within 10 minutes! Chapter 119: Chapter 119: Gather all brothers within 10 minutes!Dialing the phone, Ye Huan glanced playfully at Zhou Sha. The ringtone of Zhou Shas phone sounded from his waist. "Xiao Zhou, I called you on his behalf, now gather your people." Ye Huan said with a smile. Zhou Sha nodded, walked aside, and made a call: "In ten minutes, all brothers gather at XX factory, no one be late!" Gold Tooth froze again. This standstill lasted ten minutes. Ten minutes later, he was completely scared out of his wits. More than four hundred people wearing security uniforms, with chest badges reading "Silver Bay," swaggered into the factory. Gold Tooth was shocked, dumbfounded, looking at Zhou Sha: "You... youre Zhou..." "Not so dumb, are you?!" Zhou Sha sneered, squeezing his fist which made a chilling creak before landing a punch on Gold Tooths face. Gold Tooths cheekbone shattered from the punch, and his dazzling "gold tooth" was pulverized by the iron fist. Even as he wailed, the shock on his face did not diminish. Whats going on? What... what is this situation! The real Zhou Sha was actually right next to him?! And this "Captain Ye," could... actually order Zhou Sha? Sar?h the Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. What... what is this "Captain Yes" identity!!! Seeing Gold Tooth looking like a dead dog, Fang Hong was utterly despondent. Gold Tooth boasted without blinking, even called in four hundred men to beat Ye Huan to death? Not only was Ye Huan not beaten to death, but those four hundred men were called in by Ye Huan! What is going on here! "Get rid of them." Ye Huan nonchalantly waved his hand. Zhou Sha nodded, his eyes shining with a ferocity, and lightly flicked his fingers, two sharp switchblades appearing in his hands. The blade of the switchblade reflected a chilling, glaring light. At this moment, Fang Hong and Gold Tooth were completely desperate. As they watched the switchblade getting closer and closer to their necks, they closed their eyes and awaited death. Just when the blade was on their necks, a single slice away from sending them to the afterlife... The ill-timed sound of a phone rang from Gold Tooths pocket. Zhou Sha frowned slightly, pulled out the phone from his pocket, and handed it to Ye Huan. Ye Huan took the phone, and the corners of his mouth immediately curled up. He remembered this phone number. Walker had just received a call from it not long ago, the number belonged to: Bai Yu! Ye Huan twirled the toothpick in his mouth, smiling: "Gold Tooth, I can give you a chance, let you go. Just dont know if you want to take it." "Yes, yes, yes, I definitely want it!" Gold Tooths face lit up with joy, nodding desperately. Given a chance for "survival," how could he refuse? "Answer the call, reply as I say." Ye Huan nonchalantly tossed the phone back to Gold Tooth. Gold Tooth was so excited his arm trembled, he answered the phone: "Hello?" "Youre Gold Tooth, right?" "Its me, and you are..." "Im the second young master of the Bai FamilyBai Yu, looking to discuss a major business deal with you, wondering if youre interested?" On the other end, Bai Yu leisurely lay back on his chair, sipping hot tea. Gold Tooth carefully watched Ye Huans lips, replying: "Second Young Master Bai, you actually have time to find me? May I ask... do you know what business I am in?" "Of course I know, youre in the flesh trade, I heard about you from some friends in the underworld." "So... how does Young Master Bai want to cooperate?" Bai Yu took a sip of hot tea, looking content: "I need a woman with great figure and looks, do you have any supply?" "Oh? With your status and wealth, Young Master Bai, you still need to buy from me?" Gold Tooth feigned surprise, asked. "Its not for me, I need to host a guest coming from overseas, I might accidentally harm him tomorrow, need a good woman to neutralize the effect, must be top quality." "I see..." Before Gold Tooth could continue, Bai Yu said plainly: "You know how valuable my time is, I wont waste words, three million, get a supermodel caliber woman here." "The reason Im paying you so much is to ensure this woman wont cling to my esteemed guest afterward." "Youre an insider, after the night, I dont need to say more about how to handle the woman, right?" Ye Huan didnt give verbal instructions this time, but directly typed a long string of text on his phone, placing it in front of Gold Tooth. Gold Tooth understood, nodded, then spoke, his words tinged with difficulty: "Young Master Bai, you know my capabilities well. Once your distinguished guest has finished his business, I can directly send the woman to Southeast Asias red-light district, guaranteeing shell never get out for the rest of her life." "But, getting a supermodel-level woman there on such short notice is indeed a bit challenging for me." He sighed as he spoke. On the other end of the line, Bai Yu was somewhat satisfied. Money to someone like him was just a string of numbers. A bit challenging indicated its only "a bit" challenging, not impossible. Golden Teeth clearly wanted to "increase the price," which actually showed he had the capability to get things done. Besides, sending a woman to Southeast Asias red-light district would definitely ensure she couldnt get out for life. With this, President Walker wouldnt have to worry about being entangled with a woman, and using his relationship with Sorrel, he wouldnt hold a grudge against him for "being mistakenly harmed." "Five million." Bai Yu directly increased the price by two million, "Five million for a supermodel-level woman, and you handle the aftermath!" "Alright!" Golden Teeth replied, "So, Young Master Bai, when and where do you want the delivery?" "Tomorrow night at six, Golden Leaf Hotel!" After speaking, Bai Yu hung up the phone. Golden Teeth looked at the now darkened screen and gave an awkward smile: "Captain Ye, how did I do... not bad, right?" "Of course, your performance was top-notch!" Ye Huan gave a thumbs-up and pointed at the factory gate, "You can go now." As soon as the words fell, the four hundred or so brothers simultaneously turned their heads, making way for a path. Golden Teeth was overjoyed and wiped away happy tears: "Thank you, Captain Ye, you truly are a living Bodhisattva, a great philanthropist!" Speaking, he dragged his crippled left leg, with the knee already shattered, limping towards the factory gate. Light, just ahead! Golden Teeth swallowed hard, his face increasingly joyful. But the next second, his smile froze. "Click, click, click." A group of special police surrounded the factory gate, the dark muzzles all pointed at Golden Teeth. "Thud." Having just climbed out of the abyss, he fell back in again. Under the great psychological contrast, Golden Teeth fell to the ground, fainting as soon as he hit the floor. The director and Qin Ya came over, giving Golden Teeth a cold glance, and waved a hand: "Take him away!" With that, two officers stepped forward and took him away. "Its you again, why do you always gather together to do this stuff!" Qin Yas pretty face turned icy, scanning the group of Silver Bay brothers. "Captain Qin, what do you mean by that!" Ye Huan came over, hands behind his back, looking serious: "If it werent for the timely arrival of the Silver Bay brothers, this criminal would have escaped. I strongly suggest awarding the Silver Bay brothers the title of good citizens!" "What nonsense are you spouting?" Qin Ya raised her delicate eyebrows, "Them? Good citizens?" "Dont believe me, check the surveillance!" Three minutes later, the surveillance footage was retrieved. Qin Yas face turned as dark as Judge Baos. The fact was, it was indeed thanks to Zhou Sha and the others. If not for Zhou Sha and the others, Golden Teeth would have surely escaped by now. "Now do you believe it?" Ye Huan said, earnestly "criticizing," "Captain Qin, no, youre not Captain anymore. But even if youre not Captain, I should really say something, can you change this habit of judging by appearances? The Silver Bay brothers may be a bit brawny, a bit aggressive, but theyre all big-hearted! Without them, wouldnt the criminal have escaped again?" His words made those four hundred or so people rub their heads in a bashful smile. Qin Ya, on the other hand, grew more irritated, gritting her teeth. "Thats enough, Qin Ya, report to the traffic division, and dont return to the criminal division for three months!" The director barked orders, then shook hands with Zhou Sha, expressing gratitude, and left with several officers. Zhou Sha was left dumbfounded. As a hooligan, could he one day actually be shaking hands with the police commissioner and be thanked? "Woo-woo" Watching the police cars roaring away, Ye Huan, hands in his pockets, recalled the call just made by Bai Yu. The distinguished guest he spoke of was likely the president of the Finske Conglomerates European divisionFinske Walker. As for the accidental harm and finding a supermodel for Walker to solve the drug effect... Reading between these lines, its not hard to guess that Bai Yu was likely preparing something similar to a potent drug, intending to "accidentally harm" Walker if necessary. Tomorrow, Bai Yu is hosting Walker and Liu Tianyun for dinner. If Walker is accidentally harmed, it indicates that the real target for drugging is Liu Tianyun! Ye Huans eyes narrowed into slits, his gaze sharp as a knife. "Bai Yu, since you dare to play dirty, dont blame me..." At this moment, screams came from inside the factory. Fang Hong tried to escape and was kicked down by these "living Lei Fengs." Ye Huan patted Zhou Sha on the shoulder, a cold glimmer in his eye, and said meaningfully: "Deal with the woman inside cleanly." Chapter 120: Didn’t take it? Chapter 120: Chapter 120: Didnt take it?After giving instructions to deal with Fang Hong, Ye Huan was ready to drive the van with Zhang Huimin in it and take her home. But then there was a little situation. When he reached the car, Ye Huan was full of black lines on his forehead. "As expected of the woman whom my boss fancies, her figure is almost as good as mine!" Inside the van, Ye Bingning was holding her chin with both hands, with a strawberry lollipop in her mouth, eyeing Zhang Huimin with "ill intentions". "Ye Bingning, what are you doing in broad daylight?" Ye Huan opened the van door and grabbed Ye Bingning by the ear. "Ouch ouch ouch." Taking a sharp breath, Ye Bingning quickly pulled away, looking aggrieved: "Boss, youre so biased, rushing here just to save her!" "And with me, youre always pulling my ear!" Hearing this, Ye Huan sighed helplessly, saying, "If something like this happened to you, I would definitely rush over as well." "Hmm?" Ye Bingnings face lit up, "Are you serious?" "Of course." "Alright then, I forgive you for your affair this time!" Ye Bingning said this, causing Brother Huan to stagger, almost falling headfirst to the ground. "Ye Bingning, think carefully, isnt there something wrong with the way you phrased that?" Ye Huan gritted his teeth and said. "Whats wrong? Isnt this woman someone you found behind my back?" "Behind my back, no. I never intended to hide her from you... and shes not my woman anyway..." Ye Bingning was surprised, "Not your woman? Could it be... Boss, you havent gotten her yet?" "No!" Ye Huans face flushed red. Ye Bingning looked unconvinced, "Boss, its not good to lie! This woman is so beautiful, with such a good figure, theres no way you havent got her. Back when you were overseas, whenever you saw a beautiful woman, you..." Before Ye Bingning could finish, Ye Huans face turned red, and he quickly covered her mouth. After glancing nervously at Zhang Huimin with the corner of his eye to confirm she wasnt awake, he breathed a sigh of relief. Then, Ye Huan gritted his teeth and asked, "Ye Bingning, in your heart, am I really such a disgrace, that I lose control whenever I see a pretty woman?" Ye Bingning nodded earnestly, "Yes." That single word left Brother Huan feeling a bit ashamed and slightly angry. Back when he was overseas, Brother Huan indeed did things a bit "excessively", taking down many women including so-called princesses of various nations and world-class superstars... But that was in the past! The current Brother Huan is no longer the Brother Huan of the past! He must clarify! Ye Huan put on a kind smile, saying, "Ye Bingning, after two years of transformation, your brother here has turned over a new leaf, Im not the same person I was back then..." Ye Bingning chuckled softly, the corners of her mouth curling up in a mocking arc. The implication was clear: Do you think I believe you? Ye Huan nearly spat up blood in frustration. "Im not gonna argue with you anymore! Besides, Ive checked this woman for you, shes fine. She should wake up in about an hour." Ye Bingning sucked on her lollipop and said. "I can tell without looking, dont forget who taught you those skills." Ye Huan said irritably, then waved his hand, "Alright, you get out now, Ill drive her home." "No way, Im coming too." "Huh?" Ye Huan looked puzzled, "Why are you coming along?" "Hehe!" Ye Bingning let out a cold laugh, "This woman, you probably found her behind Liu Tianyuns back, right?" "I told you, shes not my woman..." Ye Huan had a serious expression, his words firm and powerful. But the only response Brother Huan received was Ye Bingnings mocking chuckle. "Come on, the kind of man you are, I, Ye Bingning, have seen clearly during those two years overseas. A woman as beautiful as this, and you didnt get her? Who would believe that!" Sarch* The n?velFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "However, I wont blame you. After all, a man like you, standing at the top of the world pyramid, cant be tied down by just one woman, its normal to have many women around." "But, as the head of your harem, I have the responsibility to have a good chat with this younger sister after she wakes up, and maybe discuss some strategies to deal with Liu Tianyun with her as well!" Ye Bingning went on and on, then sucked in a sharp breath, yelping in pain and quickly pulling her ear away from Ye Huans clutches. "Younger sister? Shes thirty, twelve years older than you!" "Whats wrong with being thirty, in the harem, age doesnt matter." While speaking, Ye Bingning raised her pinky in an orchid gesture, exuding the temperament of a sharp-tongued concubine from ancient times: "In the harem of our boss, I am undoubtedly the big sister... head..." At this point, Ye Bingning stopped speaking. Because if she continued, her "ear wouldnt survive"! "Fine, follow along if you want." Ye Huan, speechless, closed the car door, and then sat in the drivers seat. It seemed like he had to wait for Zhang Huimin to wake up and let her personally say that nothing happened between them to change Ye Bingnings perception of him! Only then could Ye Bingning delete the "filthy stallion" label from her mind when it came to Brother Huan! ... "Ugh..." Zhang Huimin rubbed her aching temple, sitting up from the sofa. Looking around at the familiar surroundings, she instead felt a bit at a loss. When did she come back? And why did her head feel so dizzy? And... "Iggle Piggle, Makka Pakka." Hearing this "strange language", Zhang Huimins gaze landed on the television screen in front of her. "Younger sister, Im the one watching TV." Younger sister? Zhang Huimin turned her head and saw a "little girl" squatting on the sofa beside her, wearing a qipao, with a hot figure, and a lollipop in her mouth. "Little sister, how are you at my house?" "Little sister?" Ye Bingning raised her delicate eyebrows, "Im your elder sister!" "Huh? This..." Zhang Huimin looked embarrassed. This little sister looked at most eighteen. How did she become her elder sister? Seeing Zhang Huimin speechless, Ye Bingning thought Zhang Huimin understood the "hierarchy", looking very proud. At this moment, hearing movement outside, Ye Huan came out of the kitchen wearing an apron. Feeling Ye Huans unfriendly gaze, Ye Bingning stuck out her tongue, the smug look on her face quickly fading away. "Zhang Jie, are you alright, how do you feel?" Ye Huan asked with a smile. "Little... Little Ye?" Zhang Huimin was dumbfounded. Chapter 121: Why Did You Change So Much! Chapter 121: Chapter 121: Why Did You Change So Much!Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her head, as a massive influx of information overwhelmed her mind. The collusion between Golden Tooth and Fang Hong. And their true purpose... Zhang Huimin was stunned for a moment, then she threw herself straight into Ye Huans arms, tears streaming down: "Xiao Ye, is it you... is it you who saved me?!" "Half, maybe. It was the little brother of the girl on the sofa who informed me, and I rushed over." Ye Huan chuckled, patting Zhang Huimins back. The term "little girl" left Ye Bingning looking displeased. Zhang Huimin had subconsciously already decided that it was Ye Huan who saved her. She ignored the comment, burying her head in Ye Huans chest, sobbing incessantly, "Xiao Ye, Im so scared, you know, Fang Hong and that Golden... Golden Tooth, they were going to sell me to that... that kind of place. I was really scared!" "Zhang Jie, its all right now. Golden Tooth has been taken away by the police." "As for Fang Hong, she wont bother you again." Ye Huan gently patted Zhang Huimins back as comfort. Mentioning Fang Hongs name, a flash of severity passed through his eyes once more. If Zhou Sha was quick with his work, by now Fang Hong should have been taken to some remote place and thoroughly dealt with... A woman like Fang Hong is unworthy of living! "Xiao Ye, when...when I fainted, I dreamt that they...they sold me to such a disgusting...place." "There was a...a big...woman forcing me to serve others. I refused, and she beat me, she abused...abused me!" "She beat me until I was covered in blood, it hurt so much!" "I was really scared!!!" Zhang Huimins eyes were filled with intense fear, her entire body trembling violently, with tears falling like a stream, "splashing" into Ye Huans embrace. Ye Huans gaze softened, continuing to gently pat her back, whispering, "Zhang Jie, dont be afraid. With me here, such a thing could never really happen." "Mm, I know. Every time Im in danger, you come to save me." "Even in the last moment of that dream, it was you...it was you who came and saved me." "Im not afraid." Zhang Huimin continued to sob. Her body continued to tremble, clearly unable to calm her mind. "..." In the entire living room, aside from the "Makapaka" sound coming from the TV, there was no other noise. Just like that, Zhang Huimin held Ye Huan tightly for an hour. The smell of burnt food had long emanated from the iron pot in the kitchen. Listening to Ye Huans heartbeat, Zhang Huimins sobbing gradually ceased, and the trembling of her body lessened until it completely stopped five minutes earlier. But she buried her head even deeper into Ye Huans chest, holding on to his arms tighter and tighter. After a long while. sea??h th ovlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Zhang Huimin spoke softly, "Xiao Ye, thank you so much. You always save me. If it wasnt for you, I really dont know what Id be like now." Ye Huan continued to gently pat her back without speaking. Zhang Huimin displayed a smile that could overshadow all the flowers, though her delicate head was still buried in Ye Huans chest, unseen by anyone. From Ye Huans chest, she felt an unparalleled sense of security. From the moment she was born, she "shouldered" the "task" of growing up to support her brother. From childhood to adulthood, she never received even a hint of security from her family or anywhere. Even because of her beautiful looks and figure, in her village she had to be on guard while bathing against the old bachelors. After coming to Celestial Sea City, she feared encountering rogues or perverts every day after work, never daring to linger outside, always feeling a sense of "escaping a life-threatening situation" when she got home. She had often heard the term "sense of security" in dramas or movies, but had never felt it. Now, she felt it in Ye Huans chest. It was a grounded feeling, reassuring, as if as long as she was in Ye Huans arms, there was nothing to fear. This feeling enchanted her, raising a sense of dependence within her heart. She wanted to stay like this forever, dependent on Ye Huans embrace for a lifetime. Zhang Huimin lifted her head, gazing directly at Ye Huan. A few seconds later, her delicate face blushed as she spoke, "Xiao Ye, my makeups all smeared from crying. Does it...does it look ugly?" "Ugly?" "Who dares say Zhang Jie is ugly, Ill definitely give them ten big slaps!" Ye Huan said seriously. "Really?" Zhang Huimins demeanor became a bit bashful, and her exquisite face was not only stained with tears but also had a captivating blush. Her lovable appearance at this moment was enough to drive any man crazy. Ye Huan chuckled, "Of course." "Then...do you think Im beautiful?" Zhang Huimin asked shyly. "Of course, I already told you before, Zhang Jie, youre very beautiful!" Ye Huan said, still earnest. Zhang Huimin blushed all the way to her earlobes, yet a proud expression emerged on her face. She had made a decision! "Xiao Ye." Zhang Huimin buried her head into Ye Huans chest again, her face blushing so intensely it could bleed, whispering, "Xiao Ye, do you want to...have me?" "Huh?" Ye Huan looked puzzled, "Have what?" Zhang Huimin bit her lip tightly, then closed her eyes shyly, "Ha...have..." Before she could say the final "me". "What!" Ye Bingning on the sofa exclaimed loudly. This exclamation made Zhang Huimin scream, retreating a few steps. Only then did she remember, there was still a "little girl" on the sofa! She felt utterly embarrassed, wishing she could dig a hole and hide on the spot! "What did you say, are you kidding?" Ye Bingnings eyes were as wide as saucers, filled with disbelief. "Xiao Ye, this little sister is..." Zhang Huimin glanced away, asking in a low voice. "Oh, shes my little brother..." Realizing "little brother" wasnt quite fitting, Ye Huan corrected, "Shes my sister, Ye Bingning!" Ye Bingning didnt pay any attention to their conversation, exclaiming to Ye Huan, "Boss, are you still the boss I know? You havent really got Zhang Sis?!" "Huh?" Before Ye Huan could speak, Zhang Huimin covered her flaming cheeks, feeling even more embarrassed. Ye Huans face was filled with lines of awkwardness, but he said nothing. "Say something, are you a fake boss?!" "Fine, you wont speak, I see, you must be a fake boss!" "Even your face is so well-made, I cant pull it off!" Ye Bingning grimaced, pulling at Ye Huans face. "Fake boss? Ye Bingning, someone as handsome as me, who could impersonate me?" Ye Huan grabbed the back of Ye Bingnings collar, lifting her up, speaking exasperatedly. With those words. Ye Bingnings expression returned to calm, "Looks like you really are my boss." "Nonsense! My aura of dominance, can it really be counterfeited by anyone?" "Yeah, yeah, I believe you more." Ye Bingning nodded seriously, "This level of narcissism, no doubt its my boss himself." Ye Huans mouth twitched. How did I end up taking in a "little brother" like this? What a sin! "But boss, how have you changed so much?" "This sisters figure and looks, shes top class beauty, yet you havent taken her?" "I remember back overseas, you were never this reserved after all, in your prime, you once secured seven royalty..." Chapter 122 Jin Ye Grand Hotel Chapter 122: Chapter 122 Jin Ye Grand HotelYe Bingning kept talking endlessly. Ye Huan suddenly covered her mouth, forcing her to swallow back the last word "princess". Unveiling black history is like digging up someones ancestors graves! "Sister Zhang, dont listen to the kids nonsense!" Ye Huan gritted his teeth, smiling sheepishly. Zhang Huimin paid no mind to Ye Bingnings words. Because Brother Huans image in her mind was very noble, he was a perfect manupright, courageous, and not swayed by beauty. Any words that might negatively impact Ye Huans image, including "casanova", would automatically be filtered! But the word "overseas" wasnt filtered out. "Xiao Ye, you guys have been abroad before?" Zhang Huimin said in surprise. "Of course." Ye Huan gave Ye Bingning a warning look, then released his hand from her mouth, "Sister Zhang, actually, I worked abroad for a few years. I guess you could say I had a shared interest with Ye Bingning, and thats when we swore to become siblings!" Ye Bingning patted her chest, speaking with a powerful tone, "On the surface, Im a sister, but my dream is to become the big sister of the bosss harem!" "Ah? What? Xiao Ye, shes only eighteen, right..." Zhang Huimin stammered, her eyes turning strange. She felt a bit panickedcould it be that Ye Huan preferred younger girls and didnt fancy someone like her...? Ye Huan saw Zhang Huimins appearance and knew she had misunderstood him, instantly feeling annoyed again. "Sister Zhang, shes full and bored, she likes to talk nonsense when shes got nothing to do!" "Boss, youre the one whos full and talking nonsense..." Ye Bingning retorted, only to have her mouth covered again. She looked furious, struggling fiercely with all four limbs, as if saying, "Let go of me if you dare, this isnt over between us." Ye Huan laughed awkwardly and said, "Okay, Sister Zhang, you rest well tonight. Her parents are calling her home for dinner, Ill take her back first, otherwise her parents will be worried sick. Also, the dishes in the kitchen might have burned, you should cook something, or I can order takeout for you." "No no, I can cook myself. Also... are you leaving?" Zhang Huimins mood dropped a little. She originally thought that if Ye Huan stayed tonight, she could sleep in his arms. Even if something really happened, she wouldnt mind! She greatly cherished the sense of security Ye Huan brought her. Hearing Ye Huan say he was leaving, her mood plummeted. Ye Huan noticed her disappointment, gently patted her back, and then left. ... In the van, Ye Bingning finally got to speak, glaring angrily, "Boss, what do you mean!" "What do I mean? If you keep talking, my image will be completely tarnished by you!" Ye Huan scolded irritably, starting the car. "What tarnish? What did I say that was a lie?" "My dream is to become the big sister of your harem, thats something I know myself. Im just speaking my mind!" "Or, the night when you took down those seven royal princesses, was I wrong about that?" Ye Bingning folded her arms and questioned. Even with Ye Huans thick skin, he couldnt help but blush with embarrassment. Damn black history! It would be one thing if it was just embarrassing, but there just had to be someone next to him who knew 90% of his black history! "Ahem." Ye Huan cleared his throat and said, "Bing Ning, Im not who I used to be. Im now a virtuous man who stays away from temptation. Besides, I never intended to have a harem, so your dream of being the big sister of the harem can be dismissed. And, youre still young, someday youll meet someone better!" Ye Bingning raised an eyebrow, "No one is better than you!" Wow! Whats going on! This little girl actually has nice things to say! Its true, no man better than me exists! Ye Huan nodded secretly with a satisfied look. But Brother Huan naturally didnt have any thoughts for little brats. This kind of young girl, her feelings for boys are mostly just a passing fancy, shell likely change her mind in the future. Thinking of this, he didnt bother trying to discourage her any further. "Where to? The Triumph Serenade Bar?" Looking through the rearview mirror and seeing Ye Bingning nod, Ye Huan started the van, the engine roaring to life. At this time, Ye Bingning suddenly spoke, with her head down, "Boss, do you blame me for leaving without saying goodbye back then?" Ye Huan smiled, "Why ask suddenly?" Ye Bingning cupped her cheeks with her hands, "Just asking, tell me, are you mad at me?" "No." Sear?h the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Really not?" "Not at all!" "As expected of the boss, I knew you wouldnt blame me. But I had my reasons too, Ill tell you when the time is right!" Ye Bingning sucked on a lollipop, then turned her head and started humming a light tune. Ye Huan shook his head with a smile. Thinking back on those two years, Brother Huan was filled with mixed feelings. Back then, when he was on a mission in the Dark World to destroy a Middle Eastern terrorist group, he accidentally saved Ye Bingning from their clutches. Who wouldve thought that this rescue would bring such a "big trouble". Afterward, Ye Bingning clung to Ye Huan every day, wanting to learn martial arts. Ye Huan couldnt stand it anymore and ended up teaching her something very difficult, pretending it was the easiest. He never expected that she would master it in two years. During those two years of training, they were inseparable. But after she succeeded, Ye Bingning suddenly disappeared. Ye Huan didnt think theyd meet again someday, and they did when his mentor forced him to return to Huaxia for a last-ditch marriage effort. After dropping Ye Bingning off at the Triumph Serenade Bar in Silver BayWest District of Celestial Sea City, Ye Huan drove towards the largest electronics mall in Celestial Sea City. Half an hour later, Ye Huan left the electronics mall and got back in the car. Looking at the tiny pinhole camera in his hand, thinking of Bai Yus unwarranted act of kindness, Ye Huan showed a playful expression. "Bai Yu, if you want to play dirty, dont blame me..." ... The next evening, a Rolls Royce Phantom parked in the parking lot of Jinye Grand Hotel. Jinye Grand Hotel, one of the few five-star hotels in Celestial Sea City, is situated in the central area of the West District. The hotel style resembles a medieval European noble court. The soft piano music mixed with the clinking of wine glasses in the lobby and the male and female couples embracing on the dance floor in the center made the hotels aristocratic atmosphere even more pronounced. In the presidential suite, Bai Yu took out a bottle of 1982 Lafite worth a million Huaxia Coins from the wine cabinet on the side. He pulled out a small plastic bag containing powdered drugs from his pocket, his arms trembling with excitement. He opened the cork and poured all the powder into the wine bottle, vigorously shaking it for over a minute. "Young Master, theyve arrived at the parking lot." A burly man wearing sunglasses gently opened the suite door. "Hmm, howre the preparations?" Bai Yu asked, putting the wine bottle back in the cabinet. The man hesitated, "Everything else is fine, but... the supermodel we booked for President Walker hasnt arrived yet..." Bai Yus eyebrows knitted tightly, "Whats going on, I already gave Jinya the time and place?" "Jinya... we cant reach him either. I heard his contact, Wang Mom, was arrested by the police; he might also..." the man looked embarrassed. "Damn it!" Bai Yu slammed the table in anger, "Hurry and go to the street to find a woman of decent looks, knock her out, and bring her here. At worst, well give her five million in hush money afterward!" "Yes, sir!" Chapter 123: Beat Ye Huan to Death! Chapter 123: Chapter 123: Beat Ye Huan to Death!Celestial Sea City, a lamb skewer stand on the street. "Huh? Miss, are you sure...?" The chef wearing a tall hat asked. "Im sure, another fifty skewers!" The chef twitched his mouth and continued grilling the skewers. Hes seen people who can eat, but never someone who can eat so much! Truly, you cant judge a book by its cover. This lady is slim and frail-looking, doesnt seem like she can eat this much. Yet its not even night market time, and todays stock has almost been devoured by her alone. The table in front of Qin Ya was filled with... To be exact...pricked full, pricked full of long and short bamboo skewers, at least a hundred! "Ye Huan, I swear Ill stab you to death!" Qin Ya, dressed in sportswear, held dozens more bamboo skewers in her hand and fiercely stabbed them into the table again. Her face was flushed, and she reeked of alcohol. Under the table were more than a dozen empty beer bottles. Though she realized she was wrong, she was still unwilling to accept it, even more annoyed that Ye Huan had "forced" her to spend a months salary on expensive dishes, so she came to the skewer stand, using the table as Ye Huan, stabbing with bamboo skewers to vent. "Ah, help!!!" A womans scream suddenly came from a nearby alley. Qin Yas face changed and she quickly rushed over. "Hey, miss, you havent paid your bill yet!" The chef urgently chased after her. But as soon as he entered the alley, he shivered and hurried back. In the alley, five men in suits and sunglasses surrounded a good-looking woman. The woman was cornered against the wall, shivering: "What... what do you want..." "Miss, being chosen by us is your fortune, and we agreed to definitely give you five million afterward!" "Not only five million, but you also get to accompany a real handsome foreigner, you wont lose out!" "But after youre done with him... you also have to entertain us, otherwise, five million is a loss, haha!" The men laughed lewdly. Qin Ya, standing at the mouth of the alley, glared angrily and shouted, "What are you trying to do in broad daylight!" The men turned around, their eyes lighting up. They looked at each other, discussing: "This woman looks even better, should we switch to her..." "Look at her fiery temper, perhaps President Walker would feel more conquest when he conquers her. If Walker is happy, Bai Yu would be happy, and Bai Yu would definitely commend us!" "Haha, sounds okay!" While the men were discussing, Qin Ya reached into her jacket pocket with her right hand, pulled out a document, and shouted sharply again, "Im a police officer, everyone put your hands on your heads and squat down!" Oh my! This woman is a cop? No wonder her temper is so fiery! The men in sunglasses showed panic on their faces. Then, they burst out laughing: "Girl, why are you pulling out a bus pass out of boredom?!" "Could it be, you got drunk and want to play cops and robbers with us?" "We can play with you, but playing in a hotel room sounds more fun, haha!" "Hahaha!" Listening to this sinister laughter, Qin Ya was stunned. Bus pass? She looked at the document in her right hand, her face changing slightly... This "document"... really was just a bus pass! Qin Ya gritted her teeth and shouted angrily, "I am a cop, Im warning you, dont be too reckless!" "Oh? Youre a cop? Then take out your ID to show us!" The men in sunglasses extended their hands, lewdly eyeing Qin Yas fiery body. Qin Yas face turned dark, as her police ID had been recovered due to being transferred to the traffic squad, and the traffic police ID hadnt been issued yet, so she couldnt prove her identity now. Just as she opened her mouth, ready to shout sharply again... "Bang!" A dull thump. One sunglasses man, A Bao, sneak-attacked Qin Ya from behind, knocking her out with a karate chop. A Bao looked at the fallen Qin Ya, sneering, "A cop? Drinking so much alone at night, shes probably just one of those selling herself on the street." Cursing, he waved his hand widely: "Take her to President Walkers room!" ... One of the most luxurious hotels in Celestial Sea City, the Golden Leaf Hotel, boasts an opulent presidential suite. The entire suites decor is very elegant, much like a European medieval kings dining hall. A Gifford redwood square table, the front edge inlaid with a total of 250 dazzling diamonds. A total of three chairs made from pure ivory, one placed at the head of the table, the other two on each side. "Woah, whats this kid doing here!" Bai Yu cursed in his mind. He really didnt expect Ye Huan to accompany Liu Tianyun to negotiate with President Walker. But cursing aside, his expression didnt change a bit. He even felt...a bit smug inside. Only three chairs in total, hell make Ye Huan stand there awkwardly, haha! Bai Yu walked ahead, a sinister smirk curling his lips. He walked to the seat at the head of the table, respectfully pulled out the chair, and gestured, "Please, President Walker." "Wow, young Bai, you, as the second young master of the Bai Family, actually doing this yourself?" "Im very satisfied with your service attitude, on a scale of ten, Ill give you eleven!" Ye Huan, with a toothpick in his mouth, patted Bai Yus shoulder with a grin. Then... He plopped down into the head seat. Bai Yu jumped in fury, cursing, "Ye Huan, youre pushing your luck, coming uninvited is one thing, but daring to take President Walkers seat? Youre really bold!" "Taking the seat? President Walker, did I take your seat?" Ye Huan looked at Walker and asked "confusedly." "No, sitting anywhere is the same, and I dont like the head seat." Walker smiled, then pulled out one of the other two chairs and sat down. Seeing this, Bai Yus face showed awkwardness, but inside he was fuming. If you didnt like the head seat, you shouldve said so earlier, now Ye Huans sitting there, how unlucky! He was just about to pull out the last chair... "Wifey, the tables wide, we can sit together!" Ye Huan grinned, picked up the last chair, and placed it beside the head chair, "serving" Liu Tianyun as she sat down. Then he sat back in his original seat, surprised, "Young Bai, do you perhaps have a special taste, preferring to eat standing up?" "Ye Huan, Ill kill you..." Bai Yus finger pointing at Ye Huan was trembling, furious beyond words. But seeing as Walker was also present, he didnt dare act out. Other things didnt matter, but he absolutely couldnt let this bigshot from afar have a bad impression of him. Thinking of this, Bai Yu suppressed his anger, then found an excuse to use the restroom and left the suite. Bai Yu was so angry his teeth were chattering, utterly depressed. He initially thought he could trap Ye Huan with the chair, but in the end, Ye Huan shamelessly took the head seat, leaving Bai Yu embarrassed with no seat of his own! Doesnt Ye Huan know how noble President Walkers status is? He dared to sit at the head first! Such a country bumpkin, hasnt seen the world! Bai Yu took the elevator to the presidential room upstairs and knocked on the door. The door opened quickly. "A Bao, hows it going?" "Done, see for yourself, guaranteed to satisfy President Walker." A Bao pointed at the unconscious Qin Ya on the big round bed with a sleazy grin. Bai Yu followed his direction, slightly frowning, why does this woman look a bit familiar? His expression made A Bao tentatively speak, "Young Bai, is she not satisfactory? Should I find another woman?" "Too late, shell do!" Bai Yu said indifferently. Probably just seen her once somewhere. Besides, unless shes a government official or a prestigious lady, five million should be enough to keep her quiet, right? Bai Yu calmed himself and then his eyes turned sinister, speaking again: "All of you wait outside the suite downstairs." "Ill call you guys later, rush in and beat Ye Huan to death!" "If he dares come courting death, Ill dare to kill him!" Sear?h the N?vel(F)ire.nt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "After you kill him, just dump him in some mountain valley!" Chapter 124: The Frustrated Bai Yu Chapter 124: Chapter 124: The Frustrated Bai YuIn the elevator, Bai Yu sneered repeatedly. All those people like Leopard were hired by him through his underground connections, spending a lot to get them from underground fight arenas, each has been through hundreds of fights there... Fights? Perhaps calling them battles to the death would be more appropriate... In places like underground fight arenas, to make it more entertaining, every match ends with either you die or I live; usually, only one between the two can walk off the ring alive! Being able to survive hundreds of battles to the death in such place is enough to show their formidable strength. Especially Leopard, the undisputed king of the underground fight arena! It is said that his iron fists can smash through a meter-thick steel plate! Its also rumored that he was a mercenary in the Middle East for a while and has single-handedly killed special ops soldiers of the US Navy SEALs on the battlefield, his overall strength is undoubtedly strong! Thinking of how Ye Huan will be brutally killed by Leopard shortly, Bai Yus expression turns overjoyed, and he laughs heartily. So what if youre Bing Nings boss? Distant water cant quench a nearby fire. After I have you taken out, Ill just go abroad and enjoy myself, can Bing Ning still find me?! ... "I dont like sitting opposite to others." Bai Yu instructed the waiter to bring over a new chair. He was just about to sit right opposite to Walker, and hearing Walkers words, he immediately felt awkward. But awkwardness aside, Walker is a powerful heir of the Finske Conglomerate, he doesnt dare to offend him. Bai Yu moved one spot to the right and sat down. Just after sitting down, he saw Ye Huan devouring his food, and immediately fumed. Such a table full of expensive dishes, is this how youre supposed to eat them? Bai Yu showed disdain, and pointedly rebuked, "Ye Huan, cant you eat more gracefully? Bumpkin fresh in the city, havent seen the world, huh?" Ye Huan stopped chewing, raised an eyebrow, "Whats up, cant I eat heartily, does it bother you?" "Youre not bothering me, but youre bothering President Walker! Im warning you, dont use your bumpkin eating style to insult President Walkers eyes!" Right after Bai Yu cursed... "Slurp~" Walker gobbled up the steak and various foods on the table, in a manner even more ravenous than "wolfing down" would suggest. Swallowing the food in his mouth, his eyes gleamed coldly: "Bai Yu, are you cursing me?" "No, no, how dare I curse you!" "Actually, Im praising you, this way of eating is exceptional, its simply the latest and most fashionable trend, particularly great!" Bai Yu gave a thumbs up and said earnestly. "Oh? Hes eating the same way as me, but werent you just calling him a bumpkin?" Walker pointed at Ye Huan and asked lightly. "Where? You heard wrong! His eating style is very elegant, very noble and trendy, looks just like a noble!" Bai Yu sycophantically said. Walker gave him a cold glance but said nothing more. "Tsk." Liu Tianyun showed ridicule towards Bai Yus change of demeanor and chuckled scornfully. Ye Huan looked regretful, sighed, "Second Master Bai, youre so good at sucking up, are you a reincarnated yellow dog?" Faced with the couples ridicule, especially from Ye Huan, Bai Yus eyes seemed ready to spit fire, but he could only swallow the insult. Walker was already displeased earlier, any further disruption to his meal, and the consequences would be unimaginable. Bai Yus teeth clenched tightly, with anger he didnt dare to express, his face turned ashen. What lucky breaks did Ye Huan have? His eating style just happened to align with Walkers. And Walker, President, youre a noble young master, does your eating style really need to look this bad! Bai Yu loudly "criticized" Walker and Ye Huan in his heart. At that moment, the waitress standing by the tavern rolled up her sleeves, checked her watch, and smiled, "Good evening, Young Master Bai, it is now eight oclock, would you like the wine to be served?" "Serve the wine? Yes, serve it!" "Bai Yu, are you serious? My wife and President Walker havent even started talking cooperation, and were already having wine?" "You and you, what are you babbling so much for!" Bai Yu slammed the table and stood up. Feeling Walkers unkind gaze, Bai Yu sat back down, forcing a smile, "Brother Ye, the red wines alcohol content isnt high, doesnt affect cooperation talks, right?" Ye Huan picked his teeth with a toothpick, casually waved his hand, and raised a corner of his mouth: "Doesnt affect, doesnt affect, serve the wine!" Doesnt affect yet youre babbling nonsense?! Mouth like a machine gun, babbling endlessly, is that fun or what?! Bai Yu cursed Ye Huan in his heart, sitting back in his chair, his anger surged again, his face turned red and purple. The waitress brought over a tray, on it was an 82 Lafite, along with four sparkling goblets. Taking the wine bottle from the tray, she put on a pair of white gloves, elegantly shook the bottle a few times, then uncorked it and filled the four goblets. After completing this, she stepped aside respectfully. "President Walker, this is a genuine 82 Lafite which I personally sourced from unique channels directly from the Lafite vineyard, priceless, and needless to say about its taste." Bai Yu smiled while speaking, his gaze shifted to Liu Tianyun, clearly speaking those words deliberately for Liu Tianyun to hear. Women are creatures of heavy curiosity. Lafite, directly sourced from Lafites vineyard, he couldnt believe Liu Tianyun wouldnt be curious. Sar?h the novlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. As long as the curiosity is piqued, Liu Tianyun would try to taste. As long as Liu Tianyun tastes it, it equals swallowing the powder... Bai Yus mouth involuntarily curved wretchedly... But the next second, he got angry again. "82 Lafite? Only 38 years old now." Ye Huan looked disdainful, poured the wine from the glass onto the ground, "At my hometown, any jar of Jiutan Chun has over a hundred years of history, this 38 years, youre willing to serve it to distinguished guests?!" "I spent a million on this bottle, you say to pour it out?" Bai Yu stood abruptly, cursing furiously, "Also, that Jiutan Chun from your home village is embarrassing, Huaxias brewed bumpkin wine, how can it compare to Rafite, such noble foreign wine? And you actually compared bumpkin wine with foreign noble wine? You obviously havent seen the world! I think youre hoping President Walkers molars would fall off from laughter, arent you?!" Saying this, he glanced towards Walker in the corner of his eye, his mouth slightly upturned. Praising subtly, the most lethal way! Slandering Huaxia liquor while praising foreign liquor would surely please Walker, a foreigner! Soon, the curve of his mouth totally froze. "Mr. Ye, earlier did you mention your hometown has Jiutan Chun aged a century?" "Liquor culture originated in Huaxia, thrived in Huaxia. Personally, I very much enjoy drinking liquor, always had a dream, to someday drink a cup of Huaxias matured old brew." Walker looked "enthusiastically" holding Ye Huans hand, "The Lafite vineyards in France are fully owned by Finske Europe branch, if I could be fortunate enough to taste a cup...no just a sip of your hometowns fine liquor, Im willing to exchange for 25% no, 50% of Lafites shares!" Bai Yu listened in silent shock, his whole face written "stunned". Whats going on?! As a worldwide renowned wine brand, 50% shares of Lafite vineyard definitely worth hundreds of billions of US dollars! Walker spend hundreds of billions of US dollars, merely to sip a taste of Ye Huans village brewed bumpkin liquor? Whats this all about! What made Bai Yu even angrier was Ye Huans difficult expression as if unwilling! Indeed, looking troubled... "Sigh~" Ye Huan sighed, said, "President Walker, didnt Young Master Bai just say, Huaxias liquor cant compare, doesnt match your noble young masters status!" "Not at all, matured old brew from Huaxia folklore, even just a ten-year-old, is enough to easily outshine our century-aged foreign wine!" Walker slammed the table standing up, eyes coldly glaring at Bai Yu: "Huaxia, with its five thousand years of brewing techniques, its essence, how can we foreigners comprehend?" "Bai Yu, you being Huaxia citizen, yet insult Huaxias liquor as bumpkin drink?" "Do you have no sense of national pride, no national honor?" "Using your Huaxia terms." "Bai Yu, youre a traitor!" Chapter 125: Already Knew? Chapter 125: Chapter 125: Already Knew?Walker unleashed a torrent of curses, leaving Bai Yu utterly speechless and on the verge of tears. If he hadnt seen Walker on TV before, he would have thought this Walker was hired by Ye Huan to be part of the act. From the beginning of the banquet, these two were singing in harmony, clearly intending to slap him in the face. But thats unrealistic; Walker is a powerful heir to the Finske Conglomerate and is bound to wield immense power in the future. Could such a figure be colluding with Ye Huan just to humiliate him? Impossible! As Bai Yu reflected with a darkened expression, Walkers eyes filled with gloom, and he directly splashed a glass of wine onto Bai Yus face: "Bai Yu, if I cannot drink Mr. Yes century-old Nine Pools Spring, I will blame it entirely on you, you Han Chinese traitor!" "Then, my Finske Conglomerate wouldnt mind reducing the four great families of the Celestial Sea to three!" Bai Yu wiped his face, panic-stricken, and stammered: "President Walker, we can talk this out." "Whats the point in speaking to me?" "Apologize to Mr. Ye, apologize to the wines of Huaxia!" Walker slammed the goblet down on the table hard, causing the expensive table to crack slightly. Apologize to Ye Huan? Its too humiliating! But if he doesnt apologize, the Bai Family is finished! Bai Yu took a deep breath, bowed to Ye Huan, and loudly said, "Im sorry!" "Anything else?" "And..." Bai Yu gritted his teeth and slapped himself hard, "Im a traitor, Im sorry to Huaxia, Huaxia wine is awesome!" "Not bad, I, on behalf of my familys barrels of Nine Pools Spring, forgive you!" Ye Huan nodded in satisfaction, a hint of a smile on his lips. Bai Yu forced a smile, sitting back down with a scowl. Damn it, Im already being labeled as a traitor, denigrating Huaxia wine to praise imported wine. Why is it that you, Walker, as a foreigner, not only arent pleased but are trying to elevate Huaxia wine over foreign wine? Youre a foreign traitor! Sarch* The n?vel_Fire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. He cursed inwardly, unbuttoning two buttons on his shirt as he felt his body heating up. Dammit, did I accidentally drink some of the wine Walker splashed? That wine was laced with powder! Bai Yu became anxious. He knew time was of the essence; if Liu Tianyun didnt drink the wine soon, he wouldnt be able to negate the effects of the drug, and things would become difficult! "Hey, Young Master Bai, you dont look so good, are you coming down with a fever?" Ye Huan smirked, asking just at the right moment. "No... no, Im ashamed, ashamed of my traitorous words and deeds earlier!" "Indeed, realizing your mistake now is better than never, being a traitor could mean even your ancestors graves get unearthed!" "Ye Huan, you..." Bai Yus eyes widened with anger, but he knew arguing with Ye Huan was futile; he had to keep the plan going. Suppressing his rage, he gritted his teeth, saying: "Yes, Ive profoundly realized my error, and to show my apology, Id like to toast you all!" "Thats not right, as they say, dont drink and drive, and I have to drive later, so I cant drink this wine." Ye Huan smacked his lips, looking regretful. "Then dont drink, nobody asked you to!" Bai Yu snapped through clenched teeth, then stood and smiled, "Tianyun, come on, lets drink!" "No... no need, I dont drink." Liu Tianyun lowered her head, covering her mouth as she giggled. Ye Huan and Walkerone playing the straight man, the other the comicwouldnt have a problem doing stand-up comedy. Her demeanor captivated Bai Yus eyes. What ensnared his eyes more was Liu Tianyuns attire. The black office lady outfit paired with a little black skirt was both tempting and seductive! Thinking that Liu Tianyun would become his woman after drinking the wine, an evil fire ignited in Bai Yus abdomen, making his mouth dry. In his thirst, he unknowingly drank the entire glass of red wine in one gulp. After drinking the wine, he shivered slightly. Damn, a few drops of wine mixed with powder heated his whole body; now with a whole glass, the consequences are unimaginable! Liu Tianyun hasnt drunk, and Ive downed a whole glass myself? What a mess! The plan was flawless, damn Ye Huan and his incessant chatter, completely disrupted my thought process! He knew he couldnt wait any longer; without counteracting the drug, he was bound to meet a gruesome end. Liu Tianyun was the best target to mitigate the effects; even capturing her wouldnt matter; at worst, the Bai and Liu families could destroy each other. As for Ye Huan... having A-Bao and the others deal with him, hed be finished in no time! Now, the only one to deal with is Walker; he must drink the red wine, then send him to a guest room and use a captured woman to deal with the drug! "President Walker, lets have a drink together." Bai Yu poured another glass, gesturing with his cup. Walker kept a calm face: "Foreign wines are garbage, I wont drink." Bai Yu hesitated, gritting his teeth: "President Walker, your action is that of a traitor to your people, its disgraceful, at least drink a little." "What did you just call me?" Walkers eyes turned cold, staring straight at Bai Yu. "Im sorry, Im sorry, I drank too much, it was a complete slip of the tongue!" "But President Walker, even drinking a little would be giving me, Bai Yu, some face." Bai Yu tugged on his collar, gasping, silently cursing the potency of the drug; just in mere seconds, it felt like he was about to explode. "When have I, Walker, ever needed your face? Not to mention you, even your Bai Family is nothing before me!" Walker continued to cut his steak, completely indifferent to Bai Yu. "Walker, you dare not take a mile when given an inch..." Bai Yu cursed aloud, breathing heavily, his eyes turning red. Clearly affected by the drug, his rationality was gradually slipping away. Ye Huan smirked, saying with hidden meaning: "Young Master Bai, the drug seems quite potent, you must be very satisfied?" "Huh? What drug? Ye Huan, I warn you, dont spout nonsense, who would drug the wine?!" Bai Yu retorted, the heat shooting to his head, and his body swaying, making it hard to stand steady. "Drug the wine? Young Master Bai, youre confessing without being pressed." Ye Huan picked up the bottle of 82 Lafite, grinning, suddenly forcing Bai Yus mouth open and pouring the wine down his throat. Soon, the entire bottle mixed with a packet of drug powder went into Bai Yus stomach. Bai Yu lay on the ground, clutching his belly, vomiting. The bottle of wine hit his stomach hard, sobering him up a bit. "Ye Huan, you... youre courting death!!!" Bai Yu rose in a fit of rage. "Young Master Bai, whether I live or die, you shouldnt concern yourself. What you should worry about is whether drugging the wine and attempting to harm women will land you in jail for life or straight to the firing squad..." As he spoke, Ye Huan lightly tapped on his phone screen. "Who drugged the wine?!" On the recording, Bai Yus voice echoed. "You better shut up, that... that was just a slip of the tongue!" Bai Yu stubbornly defended. "A slip of the tongue? With so much wine on the floor, any drop taken for testing would reveal the truth." Ye Huan flashed a playful look, "The real question is, does Young Master Bai dare..." Bai Yus eyes darted, feeling deeply insecure. He glanced sideways. Seeing Liu Tianyun and Walkers calm faces, recalling how Ye Huan had asked about the drugs potency first, he shivered, filled with unease... Could they have known all along about the drugging? He pondered... Suddenly, the whole bottle of drugs effect kicked in, raging through his body like fire. Bai Yu could endure no more. He roared out: "A-Bao, get in here!" "Get rid of Ye Huan for me!!!" Chapter 126: So weak, haven’t eaten? Chapter 126: Chapter 126: So weak, havent eaten?"Bang!" The door of the private room was kicked open. A Bao entered with five menacing men in sunglasses, each of them big and brawny, their muscular arms seemed on the verge of explosion, as if containing endless power. "Beat Ye Huan to death for me, Im going upstairs to find that woman!" Bai Yu roared in a low voice, then quickly ran out of the private room. "Kid, how dare you go against Young Master Bai, youve got some nerve!" "Today is your death day!" Fierce light gleamed in A Baos eyes. He led the sunglasses-wearing fifth man, slowly approaching Ye Huan. Liu Tianyun, on the side, frowned deeply. During the day, Ye Huan had told her about Bai Yus plan to drug her and had prepared response strategies. But in those strategies, they hadnt accounted for Bai Yu bringing in these people! These people were clearly not good guys; with the aura they carried, who wouldnt believe they have lives on their hands? Ye Huan might be good at fighting, but as the saying goes, untrained punches can kill a martial arts master, especially when the opponent isnt just throwing wild punches... they clearly know how to fight! Liu Tianyuns face turned cold as she warned them: "What are you trying to do? If you dare act recklessly, Ill call the police!" "Call the police?" The few people were stunned for a moment, then after glancing at each other, they scoffed: "Beautiful lady, you must be President Liu, right? How could a business elite like yourself have such a poor sense of judgment?! Are we afraid of the police? What a joke!" "Let me tell you, the lives weve taken in our hands total at least a hundred, and if the police caught us, they couldnt execute us enough times!" "But why are we still standing here? Because the police cant catch us, were outlaws, haha!" After laughing, they again cast their sinister eyes towards Ye Huan: "Kid, today were in a good mood, well give you thirty seconds to choose how you want to die!" "How about this, Ill give you thirty seconds to kneel and beg for mercy, after thirty seconds, youre on your own." Ye Huan, fiddling with the Australian lobster in his hand, didnt even glance at A Bao and the others. His words made A Bao and the others burst into laughter. Theyve seen dumb people, but not this dumb! Daring to act tough with death at your door? Simply seeking death! "Ill give you thirty seconds, lets see what kind of consequence you can bring me!" A Bao sneered, coldly smiling as he grabbed a piece of foie gras from the plate and put it in his mouth. Next, he punched the table. Smashing down with this punch, his face didnt change, as if he hadnt used a bit of strength. Yet even so, the long table showed multiple cracks, and even one of the table legs collapsed into the floor. The long table wobbled, seemingly on the verge of toppling over. This punch made Liu Tianyuns pupils contract. If this punch hit Ye Huan, even if he didnt die, he would be skinned alive... The marriage contract still had two years left, if he were beaten to death, wouldnt she become a "widow"? Taking a deep breath, Liu Tianyun said coldly: "How much is Bai Yu paying you, Ill pay double." "Oh?" A Bao showed a playful expression: "President Liu is so generous? I, A Bao, do like money, and Id love to take your money... but your husband just acted tough in front of me, and I really hate those who act tough, so Im sorry, the deal is off!" "Three times." "Truly an offer I cant refuse, well then, President Liu, let your husband kneel and kowtow twice to me, and Ill take the money!" A Bao pinched his chin, smiling mischievously. "Four..." Four times? A Bao was greatly satisfied. Sear?h the N??eFire.et website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Three..." Hmm? How come its lower? Wait, that wasnt Liu Tianyun speaking! A Bao turned his eyes to Ye Huan, his face instantly turning livid. This kid was actually counting down? "Two..." "One..." Ye Huan picked up a napkin and wiped the oil from his mouth, saying calmly: "Thirty seconds are up." With that, his gaze turned sharp as a knife, "Are you sure you wont kneel?" "Kid, still acting tough!" "Get him, beat him to death!" A Bao roared angrily. The five men in sunglasses immediately swung their fists, charging at Ye Huan. "Courting death." Walker sneered coldly, showing disdain. He continued eating, showing no sign of worry on his face. In fact, he could already imagine A Baos miserable plight in a moment. Ye Huan was indeed "that gentleman" of the Dark World. Dare to provoke him? Dead end. Liu Tianyun originally wanted to ask Walker for help, but seeing his demeanor, she was completely speechless. Even at this moment, these two were still talking sarcastically? The people in front of them were clearly killers without blinking! "120." Right! Make a call, call 120 and get an ambulance for Ye Huan! Liu Tianyun took out her phone and started dialing... But after inputting 120, she paused... Because even if 120 came... it probably wouldnt help... A Baos eyes were sinister as he took advantage of the five attacking Ye Huan, gathering all his brute force on the side, and sent out an iron punch of infinite might! The speed of this punch was so fast that everyone present felt a sudden strong wind sweep past their ears! The power of this punch was so great it seemed to tear through the air, causing a loud explosion sound. It smashed through the air, creating waves of visible impact force! It was imaginable that with this punch... Even a steel plate a meter thick could be easily pierced through. Smashing it onto a person would certainly shatter their internal organs! The other five halted their attack, sneering. With this punch, what business was there left for us? This kid would be in the Yellow Springs in minutes! The next second... The punch hit Ye Huan. Yet they all widened their eyes! This punch landed on Ye Huan, but did not produce the expected loud noise... Nor did it create the expected scene where Ye Huan was sent flying fifty meters, with his internal organs shattered and spewing blood... Because this mighty punch... Was casually intercepted by Ye Huan with a single finger! How is this possible!!! The five men in sunglasses were dumbfounded, their entire faces filled with the word shock, their eyes wide open! "Dude, is your strength this weak, didnt you eat enough before heading out?" Ye Huan squinted and smiled, his mouth curling up, his white teeth reflecting an eerie cold light... This cold light made A Bao shiver violently. His lips trembled, his eyes full of disbelief. He had traveled to North America before and, with this punch, killed a U.S. Navy SEALs spec-ops soldier! With this punch, he had swept through the entire underground boxing scene in Celestial Sea, becoming the underground boxing king. But this punch was casually intercepted by Ye Huan with one finger? Didnt use force, right, definitely didnt use force! A Bao swallowed hard. His eyes turned fierce, stepping back a few steps, gathering all his strength, and threw another punch! "Bang!" Intercepted... "Bang!" Intercepted... "..." After a minute, A Bao had thrown over fifty punches. But these fifty punches didnt leave any mark on Ye Huan! As early as A Bao threw the third punch, the eyes of the five men behind sunglasses filled with deep fear, collapsing weakly to the ground. The power of A Baos iron fist was something they were naturally well aware of. But this iron fist was like scratching an itch to Ye Huan! Ye Huan was indeed a genuinely dangerous person! Opposing him was tantamount to courting death! Another punch was intercepted, and A Bao retreated again. Prepared to throw a punch again... This time, Ye Huan didnt block... He stood up, swinging his own fist... Chapter 128: Bai Yu, Completely Finished! Chapter 128: Chapter 128: Bai Yu, Completely Finished!The Jinye Grand Hotel was engulfed by the blaring sounds of police sirens. "Mr. Ye, did such a thing really happen?" Beside the police car, Police Chief Qin Guangmings face was ashen. "Yes." Ye Huan, with a toothpick in his mouth, pulled a memory card from his pocket and handed it to the chief, "Bai Yu drugged the wine and conspired with the underworld to commit crimes. All the evidence is recorded on this memory card." Last night, after purchasing a pinhole camera, Ye Huan snuck into the Jinye Grand Hotel and placed it inside the flower bed on the window of the presidential suite. S~ea??h the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The evidence of Bai Yu drugging the wine, directing A-Bao and others to abduct women on the street, and instructing them to assault Ye Huan, was all captured in full. The footage had already been transferred by Ye Huan to the memory card he held. Qin Guangming nodded solemnly, taking the memory card. Initially, he had only come to manage the situation because of the tremendous impact of a video online that had drawn reporters and numerous social figures to the Jinye Grand Hotel; he hadnt expected Bai Yu to be such a criminal. Soon, officers from the forensics department came to take the memory card away for safekeeping. "Also, I sincerely sympathize with Chief Qins ordeal, though thankfully she wasnt hurt materially..." Ye Huan spoke with a face full of "sympathy." There is evidence of Bai Yu colluding with the underworld and other crimes. But compared to these crimes, assaulting and kidnapping a police officer is a much graver offense; punishable by death, at least. In extreme cases, he could be sentenced to death multiple times! Of course, Brother Huan didnt have this evidence, so he needed Qin Yas "help." The chief furrowed his brows, his expression puzzled: "What happened to Qin Ya?" "Wait, why is she here? Wasnt she transferred to the traffic police squad?" Qin Yas face was still grim. Obviously, she hadnt yet recovered from the "mind-stirring" scenes in the suite. She gritted her teeth and spoke, "Dad, I mean... Chief..." Dad? Ye Huans face turned exceptionally brilliant as he glanced at the chief and Qin Ya. Chief Qin Guangming gave an awkward smile and whispered, "Actually, Xiaoya is my daughter, but she didnt want it publicized for fear of colleagues gossiping." "Oh, I see, well, I didnt mind." Ye Huan shrugged indifferently, though his expression grew even more brilliant. Qin Ya, this little lass, was actually the chiefs precious daughter? Given this connection, Bai Yu kidnapping Qin Ya was basically courting death... Next, Qin Ya recounted how, after being attacked and losing consciousness, she was moved to the presidential suite, where Bai Yu attempted to harm her. Qin Guangming trembled with rage, his face full of fury. It seemed as though he wished he could shoot Bai Yu on the spot. Ye Huans lips curled into a smile, nodding with satisfaction. Bai Yu had committed so many major crimes. Even if the Bai Family were one of the four big families, they probably wouldnt dare intervene in this matter. Bai Yu was thoroughly finished! Ten minutes later, the police escorted A-Bao and the five men wearing sunglasses into the police cars. They looked like they were about to cry, how could they not fear the police now? How could they still be outlaws? How could the police not catch them? This time, it was over; with so many lives on their hands, theyd definitely face execution! As for the presidential suite... The sow wore a grievance-laden expression as it was finally taken away by members of the animal protection association. Bai Yu, regaining consciousness, realized the senseless chaos he had caused, collapsing to the floor, his face pale as though he were already half-dead. The stench in the suite was so overwhelming that the officers wore gas masks before entering to retrieve Bai Yu... ... "About this time... thank you!" "Huh?" In the drivers seat, Ye Huan blurted out in shock, thinking he had misheard. "I said, thank you for this time!" With that, Qin Ya in the cars back seat turned her head away in embarrassment, looking out the window. She had just discovered that Bai Yu had reaped what he sowed by drinking the very drugged wine he had prepared, and the effects of the drug were extremely potent. She knew that if it hadnt been for Ye Huan punching Bai Yu away and then pulling her out of the suite, she would definitely have suffered Bai Yus advances or worse, so she expressed her gratitude aloud. Ye Huan was slightly surprised, "This little cop flower really knows how to thank people? Its a sight to behold!" In the back seat, Liu Tianyun squeezed Qin Yas hand, "Xiaoya, such a big thing happened, youre definitely anxious, right? Come sleep with me tonight." "My dear little Tianyun, are you crazy? Youre a married woman now!" "Even though back when we were kids, we promised to marry the same man when we grew up and be best sisters for life." "But the man you found... frankly, is... hard to describe..." Qin Ya sighed. Ye Huan nearly spat out blood, "What are you saying, and also, you just thanked me, is it really appropriate to say this now?" "One thing at a time, my gratitude is just thanks, it doesnt mean I dont despise your character!" "First, you forced me to spend a months salary on a lavish dinner for you." "Second, using a sow to trick Bai Yu shows how wicked you are, not cherishing animals, shameful!" Qin Ya crossed her arms, condemning him repeatedly. Her tone clearly amplified when mentioning the lavish dinner, indicating she still held a grudge. Ye Huan was covered in cold sweat. No wonder the village elders always said women are not to be trifled with, couldnt be more true. Seen the vengeful, but havent seen such a vengeful one! "Alright, tonight youre staying with me, Ye Huan sleeps in the guest room downstairs." Liu Tianyun patted Qin Yas hand. Qin Ya just wanted to righteously refuse to sleep under the same roof with Ye Huan when she felt Liu Tianyuns unyielding gaze and reluctantly agreed, sticking out her tongue. Upon returning to the villa, since the bathroom pipes on the second floor were broken, Brother Huan had to act as labor, driving street to street looking for a hardware store still open. But no hardware store owner would be so deluded as to stay open at ten at night, resulting in Brother Huan driving around for a full hour and coming back empty-handed. Helplessly, Ye Huan called Liu Tianyun, intending to report the situation. He tried calling three times, but no one answered. "Damn, those two women didnt just fall asleep from exhaustion, did they?" "Its the middle of the night, and you have the young master out buying pipes, while youre tucked in bed asleep?" "Three days without a beating, going wild, Liu Tianyun, you just wait!" Ye Huan angrily drove back home. As soon as he crossed into the living room, Brother Huan heard the sound of playful frolicking coming from the first-floor bathroom... "Tianyun darling, you maintain yourself so well" "... " Chapter 128: Bai Yu, Completely Finished!
Smpl frm y Virtul Librry mpir֡r֧d mr n &VLY&R.
Ye Huan''s real identity turned out to be the Honorary Dean of Harvard Medical School and the top Divine Doctor of Harvard!
This caliber of master doesn''t even need a medical license to practice!
He is a walking industry benchmark, a walking titan of the medical field!
It''s a joke, would Huaxia arrest and convict such a high-caliber person for practicing without a medical license?
Impossible!
The next second, his eyes widened.
"Pfft!"
Qin Ya suddenly sat up, spat out a mouthful of congealed blood, and then fainted again.
But this time
"6065 The patient''s heartbeat is normal, the patient is out of life threat!!!" The nurse assisting Ye Huan, watching the fluctuating lines on the screen, yelled excitedly.
The patient stabilized.
Doesn''t that mean
The organ failure has been reversed?
What''s happening!
Didn''t see anything clearly, just busy typing criticisms of Tian Huatuo!
The live viewers were utterly bewildered.
A line of text floated across the screen.
"I''m a disciple of national medicine, look closely, seven acupuncture points on the patient''s body are pierced with toothpicks, this is clearly using toothpicks as a substitute for silver needles to perform acupuncture! Regr acupuncture only nurtures the internal organs, but Divine Doctor Ye''s acupuncture technique revived the organspletely, this divine acupuncture technique is unheard of, Divine Doctor Ye is not only a top Western doctor but also a Grand Master of traditional medicine!"
A Grand Master of traditional medicine???
The live streaming room erupted instantly.
The operating room buzzed with excitement.
Not just a top Western doctor, but also a top traditional medicine doctor!?
Reporters scrambled to interview Ye Huan, eager to secure the rights to tomorrow''s top news story.
Ye Huan had no warm feelings towards these people, and it was already generous of him not to throw them out, so how could he possibly grant them an interview?
"What the hell, how is this possible!"
Beside him, Tian Huatuo was utterly dumbfounded, the illness even Rosechet couldn''t handle, Ye Huan cured with ease?
"I told you, what you can''t cure, I can. Understand now?" Ye Huan sneered.
Tian Huatuo was still blushing, feeling embarrassed ashamed to the extreme.
Crushed!
Crushed thoroughly!
Not only is he better looking, younger than me, but his medical skills are way superior too!
This kind of person truly the chosen one!
Engaging him in conflict was a path to self-destruction!
Tian Huatuo deeply regretted picking a fight for no reason.
He didn''t know, worse was yet toe.
"Uncle Qin, Qin Ya is out of life danger, you can move her to the ward." Ye Huan said.
"Good, good!"
Qin Guangming and Feng Shushan, overwhelmed with joy, pushed the hospital bed out.
Meanwhile, police officers arrived at the scene.
They came at Tian Huatuo''s call, but in the corridor just now, Qin Guangming exined the situation to them.
The officers were immediately outraged.
What an international joke is this? Honorary Dean of Harvard Medical School?
This kind of person is a highly sought-after talent in Huaxia!
Besides, why would such a person need a medical license to practice?
This person''s medical practice is for the benefit of the world!
Tian Huatuo reported false police information, defamed high-level talents, and intentionally pressured the police in public opinion, simply worth ten times of capital punishment!
"Click."
Without saying a word, the handcuffs were pped onto Tian Huatuo''s wrists.
The officers saluted Ye Huan, ready to take the bewildered Tian Huatuo away.
Seeing this, Ye Huan stopped them, then looked at the sly-looking Doctor Huang beside him, saying, "How much to be a scapegoat?"
"A thousand."
Doctor Huang blurted out, then immediately covered his mouth in terror.
"Officers, please take this man away for investigation as well."
"If I''m not wrong, the reason Tian Huatuo''s surgery sess rate is imed to be one hundred percent, is because he colludes with Doctor Huang. Whenever a surgery doesn''t have a high sess rate, they seek Doctor Huang as the scapegoat, deceive the patient''s family, and after obtaining their consent, hand over the lead surgeon position to Doctor Huang."
"And in such cases, the patient''s fate is almost always fatal. This matter is easy to investigate, check the surgery records and you will know, this behavior already constitutes intentional murder."
Ye Huan revealed all that was on his mind.
Initially, no one believed it.
But Tian Huatuo and Doctor Huang''s reactions betrayed them.
Both of their faces changed dramatically, eyes darting around, cold sweat pouring off their foreheads, clearly feeling guilty to the extreme, also clearly not expecting Ye Huan to guess their dirty deeds.
Disgusting!
Everyone''s mind echoed these words.
The officers were even more furious, leaving with a promise to "thoroughly investigate, definitely give all the patients'' families an exnation" before hastily escorting Tian Huatuo and Doctor Huang back, preparing to conduct an intensive investigation.
As these two were taken away, their faces were full of "regret."
They knew this matter was easily investigated.
And once everything was clear, the consequence awaiting them would start with execution, possibly leading to multiple executions!
After brushing off the annoying reporters, Ye Huan made a phone call to Liu Tianyun to verify the ward number, then walked out of the operating room.
The nurse who cheered "666" for him had stars in her eyes.
The other nurses gazed at her with jealousy.
To participate in three consecutive sessful such outstanding surgeries, not exaggerating to say
This nurse is due for a promotion!
Chapter 362 - 360: Celestial God Rankings Stronghold!
Enter the ward.
Ye Huan''s forehead immediately formed two ck lines, hastily supporting the figure kneeling towards him.
"Auntie, what are you doing?"
He supported one.
Helpless.
Only one pair of hands!
Can''t support the second one!
With a "thud" sound.
Qin Guangming fell to his knees on the ground, old tears streaming down his face.
"Mr. Ye, thank you so much this time. If not for you, my daughter... my daughter definitely wouldn''t have survived, she would have been doomed. I really can''t thank you enough, our Qin Family has no... no way to repay you!"
"Yes, Mr. Ye, if not for you, my daughter definitely... definitely would have died at the hands of those two absurd doctors. You not only saved my daughter but also solved her congenital heart valve disease. Thank you so... so much... thank you so much!"
Feng Shushan expressed her gratitude repeatedly, continuously attempting to kneel down, yet Ye Huan kept supporting her up.
"Uncle and Auntie, what are you doing? Qin Ya is my wife''s best friend. Saving her is quite normal for me," Ye Huan said helplessly.
"Even if that''s the case, we... we still have to thank you..."
"You can thank me, but no need to kneel, there''s no connection between the two," Ye Huan said, his face turning ck.
Qin Guangming: "..."
Feng Shushan: "..."
The words were blunt, but they made sense.
Indeed, there''s no connection between gratitude and kneeling.
The two of them awkwardly stood up and thanked Ye Huan again.
"Don''t rush to thank me. Qin Ya is not in life-threatening danger now but needs a long time to recuperate. You must avoid causing such disturbances again," Ye Huan warned, feigning a serious expression.
Thispletely dispelled Qin Guangming and Feng Shushan''s idea of kneeling.
"Uncle Qin, how is it, have you retrieved the surveince footage from the incident, and how is the breakfast shop manager?" Ye Huan shifted the topic, asking in a low voice.
"The breakfast shop manager''s injuries are not very serious; he''s already been saved but needs some time to recuperate. As for the surveince... it''s been retrieved. Why?"
"Send a copy of the footage to my phone. I want to analyze it," Ye Huan winked and said.
"..." Qin Guangming remained silent for a moment but still agreed.
Handing over case materials to an outsider is against organizational discipline.
However, the favor received from Ye Huan was truly immense, and he holds an SSS-level top-secret file, so he absolutely wouldn''t do anything unfavorable to the authorities. Hence, Qin Guangming agreed.
"Alright, Uncle Qin, send it to me on WeChatter. Since Qin Ya needs to rest, we''ll leave for now." With Qin Guangming''s promise, Ye Huan said a word and left together with Liu Tianyun.
Ye Huan wanted to see which fearless character from the Celestial God Rankings in the Dark World dared to infiltrate Huaxia.
Yes, Ye Huan had already determined that the person who nearly killed Qin Ya came from the Dark World!
And he''s certain that the person is a strong figure on the Celestial God Rankings!
Because the kick that hit Qin Ya was not an ordinary kick but a very skillful one!
The force of the kick gathered at the toe, causing Qin Ya''s heart valve to detach and inducing instant acute coronary artery disease, while simultaneously spreading the force throughout Qin Ya''s organs, driving them to near failure and explosion. Then, the force was withdrawn and exploded at the toe, causing a blood vessel in Qin Ya to rupture with a gush of blood.
Fortunately, Qin Ya, being a police chief, has a body considerably stronger than an ordinary person, so her organs only experienced failure, not aplete explosion. Otherwise, even if Ye Huan used the Earthly Resurrection Acupuncture Technique, he couldn''t have saved her.
Controlling force to such a degree, those individuals are all top-tier strong figures!
Besides Huaxia''s Dragon Gate, only those on the Celestial God Rankings in the Dark World have such strength.
Members of Dragon Gate wouldn''t possibly attack a police officer in broad daylight, so there''s only one conclusion: that assant... came from the Dark World!
The infiltration of a strong figure from the Celestial God Rankings into Huaxia is definitely a vition of the peace treaty signed between the Twelve Divine Halls of the Dark World and Huaxia''s Dragon Gate, isn''t it?
The contents of the peace treaty signed by the Twelve Gods representing the Twelve Divine Halls and Huaxia''s Dragon Gate are: fifty people from the Celestial God Rankings correspond to the Dragon Gate''s Divine Dragon Rankings, and neither side enters the other''s territory.
In other words, the top fifty from the Celestial God Rankings are prohibited from entering Huaxia, and the top fifty from the Dragon Gate''s Divine Dragon Rankings are prohibited from entering the Western Dark World.
If this is vited, the opposing forces may kill those who enter their territory, with the deceased''s side not allowed to hold the other responsible.
Additionally, the peak forces on the Celestial God Rankings, the Twelve Gods, have strictly ordered that if anyone from the Celestial God Rankings dares to venture into Huaxia, even if Dragon Gate hasn''t discovered them and hasn''t killed them, they themselves will kill them if discovered by the Twelve Gods!
The Twelve Gods, representing the highest authority in the Dark World, no one dares to defy their orders.
Of course... except for Ye Huan.
But Ye Huan wouldn''t oppose them either, that would be very troublesome.
Quite interesting, actually.
This person almost killing Qin Ya is tantamount to opposing both Dragon Gate and the entire Twelve Divine Halls!
Doesn''t this person fear their whereabouts will be exposed?
You know, once exposed, they face a joint trial by the Twelve Gods and Dragon Gate.
...
Rolls-Royce Phantom.
After getting into the car, Ye Huan frowned slightly.
That''s when he noticed Liu Tianyun seemed like a different person today.
Her usual icy demeanor waspletely gone.
Moreover... there was a faint smell of blood on her body.
Although very faint, nearlypletely covered by her body fragrance, Ye Huan, with his keen sense of smell, detected it.
Also, since picking her up at Tianyun International and bringing her to the hospital, her face had been deathly pale.
Hearing about Qin Ya''s critical situation, your face turning pale and being anxious is normal, but Qin Ya is no longer in life-threatening danger, yet your face still looks like this... isn''t that a bit abnormal?
Driving the car, Ye Huan was filled with random thoughts.
Liu Tianyun stared at the car''s windshield, her face looking very bad,pletely bloodless.
Previously she was indeed extremely anxious due to Qin Ya''s sudden crisis, which made her face turn pale.
But now... Always read at the source*.
The anxiety faded, and she recalled Ye Huan''s identityHuaxia''s "Crown Prince," the son of Ye Tiance and Lilo!
Moreover... he''s the person she''s always had in her heart!
Together with the delivery fromst night and this morning, Liu Tianyun waspletely overwhelmed, her mind a jumbled mess, filled with inescapable memories of the desperate cries and screams of children she had fought alongside in a dungeon.
The more she thought about it, the paler her face became, until finally, she was as white as a corpse.
"Hey, what''s wrong with you? You''ve been off since this morning, and now you''re even worse. Did you get possessed or something?" Ye Huan asked.
In the past, being scolded as possessed, Liu Tianyun would certainly retaliate.
But this time... she didn''t.
She truly wasn''t in the mood to bicker with Ye Huan.
"Did you stay at Spring Welfare Institute when you were a child?" Liu Tianyun asked.
"Yes, what''s up."
"..." Upon receiving a confirmed answer, Liu Tianyun still found it hard to believe but had no choice but to ept it.
She took a deep breath, and asked in a steady voice: "I heard you wereter adopted by an old man; where did he take you?"
Ye Huan was slightly taken aback, not expecting Liu Tianyun to ask this question.
But he didn''t mind, as it wasn''t something unspeakable.
"He took me to Jimiw Vige. You probably haven''t heard of it; it''s in the mountains. In a while, since you want me to take you to meet the parents, I''ll take you to that vige," Ye Huan replied.
Liu Tianyun: "..."
The name Jimiw Vige was quite bizarre indeed.
Knowing now that Ye Huan was ''him,'' meeting the parents seemed pointless.
Moreover, as for parents... hasn''t she already met them?
Ye Tiance of the Ye Family!
Business Queen Lilo!
But she didn''t say it; she still decided to meet that old man with Ye Huan.
She hadn''te to terms with Ye Huan actually being ''him.''
Their appearances were the same, but the inner difference made it hard for her to merge the two in her mind.
In reflecting on Ye Huan''s previous question: "Do you have any biological sisters?"
Liu Tianyun secretly sighed, realizing Ye Huan felt she looked familiar, reminded of the ''tail'' who always followed him but couldn''t merge the ''tail'' with her current icy executive image. So he assumed she had biological sisters or even illegitimate sisters from her parents.
Neither could guess they''d be who they are today, so better for each to give one another some time to ept it.
She also didn''t n to tell Ye Huan about Ye Tiance and Lilo''s search for her.
After twenty-plus years of separation, a natural reunion between the parents and children should be more fulfilling.

Chapter 363 - 361: Transformation Plan?
"By the way, did you really go overseas to work in mining? If that''s the case, how do you know so many talented people, first the owner of the Finske ConglomerateStephen Finske, and then the world''s best surgeonRochester?" Liu Tianyun changed the topic and questioned Ye Huan.
Surely I can''t say that in the West, having the protection of the Twelve Celestial Gods and the God of ughter would make any conglomerate feel like they''ve won fortune for eight generations, right?
Surely I can''t say that Brother Huan''s learning talent is so strong that he idly spent a month at Harvard Medical School, and after a month he could infer everything from what he learned and even teach those old professors and deans, right?
That would be too incredible, too unbelievable.
So Ye Huan just nodded, showing affirmation.
The next moment, his face darkened.
"Then where did you get the title of Honorary Dean of Harvard Medical School? Don''t tell me that because you saved the real dean of Harvard Medical School in an African mining pit, you were awarded the title of Honorary Dean and mastered unparalleled medical skills."
Liu Tianyun sneered, extremely displeased with Ye Huan''s lying.
Liu Tianyun was watching the process of Ye Huan performing surgery on Qin Ya.
Even though she didn''t understand it, she could see that Ye Huan''s surgical skills were so proficient and fast that even those so-called expert doctors couldn''tpare.
He definitely earned the title of Honorary Dean of Harvard Medical School through his own abilities!
Ye Huan''s mouth twitched, not knowing how to smooth things over.
"If you don''t want to say it, just say it, don''t lie." Liu Tianyun''s voice was icy.
"I don''t want to say it."
Liu Tianyun: "..."
She really felt like hitting someone.
About fifteen minutester, the Rolls-Royce Phantom drove into Peni Lakefront and stopped in the courtyard of S-01.
Liu Tianyun got out of the car with a livid face and returned to the second-floor bedroom.
The broken window of the bedroom had been reced by maintenance staff during the day.
Liu Tianyun took out an old, yellowed photograph with an extremelyplex expression.
In her heart, Ye Huan should be a tall, always radiant presence who warms people''s hearts and shields them from the wind and rain.
Tall and majestic.
But the reality?
Radiant and warm-hearted?
Every time she was with Ye Huan, Liu Tianyun would always be angered by his frivolity and carelessness, every single time.
As for shielding from the wind and rain? Ye Huan indeed matched the image in her heart in this aspect, helping solve one problem after another for the people around him in his own way.
First helping Tianyun International thwart the Bai Family''s conspiracy, then standing in front of her to resolve the many crises facing Tianyun International, such as workers'' strikes, the ck Society showing up, and so on...
Then today, he managed to save Qin Ya from the brink of death despite overwhelming opposition.
This aspect of Ye Huan is beyond reproach.
Perhaps that''s why, when Ye Huan offered to pick her up from work, she felt a strong sense of security when he agreed.
Perhaps that''s why, even earlier, she had subconsciously epted the fact that Ye Huan was "him," and after learning the truth, was neither repelled nor shocked, just very surprised and bewildered.
Gritting her teeth and looking at the photo, she made a decision.
That is...
To transform Ye Huan!
To eradicate all his bad habits, such as lying (keeping a low profile),sciviousness (a man''s nature), and so on through transformation!
To make him truly tall and majestic, a man who meets her expectations!
Then, she would confess to him about childhood events, live happily together, have two children, and spend a lifetime together.
Liu Tianyun''s cheeks blushed slightly as she secretly clenched her fist, her expression and gaze very determined.
Little did she know, she wouldn''t just fail to change Ye Huan, she would fall deeper for the current Ye Huan!
But all this ister talk. Ch֧k y Virtul Librry mpir (V1L1YR) fr th ltst updts.
...
In the courtyard of vi S-01.
Ye Huan was holding a toothpick, squinting at the second-floor bedroom.
The window showed traces of being reced.
The muddy soil also had marks of footprints being erased.
Someone had been here and deliberately covered their traces.
Having battled in the Dark World for seven years, Ye Huan''s perception of anything had be terrifyingly acute.
Take the soil in the courtyard garden, for instance.
The police investigation had attempted to find footprints, but naturally turned up nothing.
Ye Huan''s thinking was different from ordinary people; with just one nce, he saw signs of someone deliberately erasing footprints.
Coupled with the reced second-floor window and Liu Tianyun''s unusual behavior today, Ye Huan frowned.
He knew.
When he was at B-06st night, something definitely happened at S-01.
But to know what happened, he could only ask Liu Tianyun and Qin Ya.
Liu Tianyun?
Ye Huan really did not want to see her scowling face.
Qin Ya?
She was still in aa in the hospital.
Tough situation.
"Ding."
At this moment, a WeChat notification chimed.
Ye Huan took out his phone and looked at it.
Qin Guangming had sent over the surveince footage from the incident location.
Walking into the vi, he plopped down on the sofa and clicked on the video.
At this instant, a gleam of cold light shed in his eyes.
Even though in the surveince, this man over two meters tall with a robust build was covered in tattered ck fabric, wearing a ck baseball cap and yellow sunsses, it did not prevent Ye Huan from recognizing him!
Memories from childhood were very hazy; he didn''t even remember his parents, nor anything that happened back then.
The only thing Ye Huan clearly remembered was sitting on the couch in a residential t watching "Pleasant Goat" when a man over two meters tall, with explosive muscles, suddenly burst through the door, knocked him out, and forcibly abducted him.
When he woke up, he had been instructed by the muscr man to a dockside boss, who sold him at an extremely low price to an African mining pit as a desperate squad member.
As a child, Ye Huan naturally knew what it meant to work in an African mining pit, but he knew Africa was abroad.
He didn''t want to go abroad, so he took advantage of the dockside boss''s inattention, smeared his face with ck mud, and sneaked onto a truck.
But the destination of the truck was a ck coal mine!
In the ck coal mine, Ye Huan endured three months of a life worse than death, starving and barely clothed.
Ultimately, it was the authorities who rescued him.
Twenty yearster, Ye Huan had never forgotten the man over two meters tall, full of muscles, who kidnapped him!
Chapter 364 - 362 Exposure!
And the person in the surveince footage, whether in stature or the explosive muscles barely concealed by the ck cloth, unmistakably indicates that this is the same person who abducted him back then.
Ye Huan had two reasons for eliminating the Zhong Family. First, from the perspective of a victim, he couldn''t bear to see the Zhong Familymit heinous atrocities for profit, ruining thousands of families.
Secondly, he wanted to see if he could use this lead to trace back and find the muscle-bound man who abducted him, to ask him who he really was, and why he forcibly took him away!
Unexpectedly, such a big surprise urred; the muscle man actually revealed himself!
Saying Ye Huan didn''t care about his origins would be a lie. He wanted to know who his parents were, how they were doing, and whether they had looked for him after he was abducted.
Although there was no debt of raising him, Brother Huan cared deeply.
"Hoo"
Exhaling a breath, Ye Huan calmed his mind and continued watching.
In the surveince footage, Qin Ya was loudly reprimanding Jiang Tiansha.
Jiang Tiansha smiled sinisterly and replied:
"In the past, I would''ve definitely sold you to the red-light district..."
"But now, I have important matters to attend to!"
Then came the expertly executed kick that sent Qin Ya flying into the emergency operating room.
Sold to the red-light district?
Ye Huan''s face changed slightly; it was hard not to associate this person with the Zhong Family.
He took a screenshot and sent it to Li Ying, asking, "Do you know this person?"
Li Ying quickly replied.
"Sorry, I forgot to tell you about this at the time because I was almost discovered by Jiang Tiansha and panicked, so I forgot about it."
"This person''s name is Jiang Tiansha. The time you sent Zhong Buwang to the hospital, I saw him there. He is in cahoots with the Zhong Family and seems to be quite skilled. Zhong Wuya trusts Jiang Tiansha''sbat ability extremely, as if with him, handling the matters in Celestial Sea would be a piece of cake."
"Zhong Wuya has also entrusted all the Celestial Sea affairs to Jiang Tiansha. Of course, Jiang Tiansha''s reason foring to Celestial Sea is important because his apprentice, named Poison Valley, died in Celestial Sea."
Within a minute, Li Ying quickly sent three messages.
The information in these three messages was undeniably substantial.
This muscle man named Jiang Tiansha was indeed in cahoots with the Zhong Family; he was a part of the Zhong Family''s enterprise, likely ying the role of the Zhong Family''s Guardian God and enforcer.
Additionally, the deceased third-ranked assassin in the Dark World, Poison Valley, was his apprentice!
The main purpose of his visit to Celestial Sea was likely to investigate the cause of Poison Valley''s death and help the Zhong Family solve the troubles in Celestial Sea.
Yet, Jiang Tiansha didn''t know that the one who killed Poison Valley and the "troubles" facing the Zhong Family were the same person!
The situation of having enemies in the dark and oneself in the light had already been broken.
Having understood Jiang Tiansha''s intentions, many subsequent matters became much simpler.
Ye Huan poured himself a cup of tea, sipping it with a yful look on his face.
Jiang Tiansha''s strength, across the entire Dark World, was indeed formidable!
Ye Huan estimated that Jiang Tiansha''s ranking on the Celestial God Rankings was around forty-eighth, which is to say, at the tail end of the Celestial God Rankings.
But among the strong on the Celestial God Rankings, even the fiftieth rank, the true tail end,mands respect from everyone in the Dark World except for the forty-nine ranked above them!
Because, even the fiftieth on the Celestial God Rankings is enough to dominate the top of any other ranking in the Dark World!
Of course, these rankings exclude the Assassin Rankings.
After all, the top of the Assassin Rankings is the thirteenth-ranked God of ughter on the Celestial God RankingsYe Huan!
Ye Huan had no worries that Jiang Tiansha would cause any waves or that he would track him down for revenge.
Because in his eyes, Jiang Tiansha was nothing more than an ant he could crush with ease.
This little episode was quickly thrown to the back of Ye Huan''s mind.
He sent another message to Li Ying on WeChat.
"Find an opportunity to get me the dash cam footage from Zhong Wuya''s regr car."
Li Ying quickly responded with an "OK" gesture, agreeing to the request.
This was something Ye Huan had been contemting for a long time.
As the Patriarch of the Zhong Family, Zhong Wuya would naturally be aware of and have visited the secret base where abducted individuals were hidden.
Such a top-secret ce, Zhong Wuya would definitely not take a taxi or bring unrted personnel there. If he were to go, there would only be one way!
That is, he would drive there himself!
So, as long as they could ess Zhong Wuya''s dash cam footage, there was a chance to find the address of that secret base.
Ye Huan had another purpose in putting Zhong Buwang into the ICU, which was to divert Zhong Wuya''s attention.
After all, with hisst biological son hanging by a thread, Zhong Wuya would likely stay by his side all night, not sparing any thought for other matters out of concern.
Allowing Jiang Tiansha to handle the troubles in the Celestial Sea shows that the goal has been achieved: the younger son is dead, the elder son severely injured, and Zhong Wuya is physically and mentally exhausted, unable to attend to other matters.
This situation conveniently allows Li Ying to carry out many actions.
As for Jiang Tiansha noticing something off about Li Ying, Ye Huan wasn''t surprised.
Read ahead and get updates at *.
Jiang Tiansha had definitely interacted with Zhong Qianqian personally and was familiar with her.
Li Ying could deceive Zhong Wuya with her disguise, but fooling a strong figure in the Celestial God Rankings wasn''t that simple.
After pondering, Ye Huan sent a message to Li Ying.
"Try to avoid contact with Jiang Tiansha. He''s very powerful and may notice something."
Unfortunately, it was toote.
...
Celestial Sea City, First People''s Hospital, ICU Floor Section, Women''s Restroom.
"Ah!!!"
The sound of piercing cries echoed again and again.
Li Ying''s head was covered in blood, pressed into the toilet.
"Damn it, I wondered why you were taking so long in the bathroom. Turns out you''re here to leak information, damn you!"
Zhong Wuya kicked Li Ying''s pelvis furiously.
When Jiang Tiansha returned to the ICU, the first thing he did was ask where Zhong Qianqian went.
Because he had long suspected that there was something wrong with this "Zhong Qianqian"!
Zhong Wuya trusted Jiang Tiansha the most and naturally said that Zhong Qianqian had gone to the restroom.
Upon learning that she had been there for ten minutes, Jiang Tiansha dragged Zhong Wuya towards the women''s restroom.
Zhong Wuya was initially puzzled and irritated, after all, Zhong Qianqian was his daughter. How could an outsider storm in like that?
Jiang Tiansha didn''t care, only trusting his instincts.
Which told him there was a "problem" with this Zhong Qianqian!
Sure enough!
There was indeed a big problem!
After kicking open the stall door and grabbing the phone, he saw on the screen the chat records of Li Ying colluding with Ye Huan!
Zhong Wuya never thought his daughter would betray him, so he flew into a rage, grabbing the bathroom''s sink pipe to beat her fiercely!
"Zhong Qianqian, you''re so heartless! It''s one thing to talk about surrendering, but you actually did?! I raised you for over twenty years, only for you to be a traitor?!"
"I get it, you just want to make peace with Ye Huan, right? Because your brother and your little brother are one dead and one disabled, so you think you''re my heir and want to stop fighting him, is that it?!"
"But let me tell you, even if your big brother is dead, you''re still the only descendant I have, I won''t pass the position of Patriarch to a traitor like you, I''ll give it to the branch family instead!"
"A traitor? If our secrets get exposed, you think you can survive? You''ve killed so many kids and women you didn''t like, sold over a hundred women overseas! If we''re finished, will the police spare you? You''ll die too, you conniving wretch!"
Zhong Wuya''s insults grew nastier as he scrolled through the chat records between Li Ying and Ye Huan, bing increasingly enraged.
Furiously he continued.
At the same time, the pipe hit Li Ying''s back repeatedly, making her screams more and more desperate.
The nurses heard the noise and rushed over, but upon seeing it was the Zhong Family Patriarch, they quickly retreated, too scared to intervene or call the police, fearing retaliation. They even "kindly" closed the bathroom door on their way out.
The pipe left Li Ying''s skin torn and bleeding, but Zhong Wuya''s anger was unappeased, his features twisted with fury.
"Zhong Qianqian, I''ll kill you, you wretched brat!"
"Snap!"
"Ah!!!"
"Snap!"
"Ah!!!"
The pain reached its peak.
Li Ying''s skin was torn, and blood streamed from her head.
If Zhong Wuya swung once more, Li Ying would die.
But this time, Jiang Tiansha stopped Zhong Wuya.
"That''s enough, we still have a use for her..."
Chapter 365 - 363: The God of Slaughter is not someone you or I can afford to provoke!
"Useful? What use is it? This ungrateful thing should just be beaten to death!" Zhong Wuya cursed angrily; he genuinely wanted to kill the "Zhong Qianqian" in front of him.
His second son, Zhong Ming, was dead, his first son was still in aa and likely to be a vegetable, and now he was betrayed by his daughter. He was truly furious.
"She''s not your daughter!"
Jiang Tiansha''s words left Zhong Wuya stunned.
Immediately, he looked confused, gazing at the "Zhong Qianqian" who was covered in blood and could hardly make a sound.
"Celestial Killer, aren''t you just talking nonsense..."
"She is your daughter''s double." Jiang Tiansha interrupted Zhong Wuya bluntly.
Double?
Zhong Wuya was stunned again.
Then, his face changed drastically!
Indeed, after Zhong Qianqian married White Impermanence, displeased with White Impermanence''s forceful advances, she found a double to help her keep lovers and even posted videos online, letting the entire upper society of Celestial Sea know that White Impermanence was a coward who didn''t dare confront his wife''s infidelity.
It was revenge.
This double, it was said, looked, sounded, and resembled Zhong Qianqian in every way, nearly indistinguishable.
Zhong Wuya didn''t doubt Jiang Tiansha''s words at all.
But if this was indeed a double, then where was the real Zhong Qianqian!?
And all this time, had he been living under the watch of a traitor!?
Zhong Wuya couldn''t help but feel a chill run through his body.
Yet he was even more furious.
He grabbed Li Ying''s blood-streaked, long ck hair and mmed her forehead against the water tank again.
Li Ying, who was almost passing out, came to her senses from the pain.
"Where''s my daughter?"
With a bloody hole on her forehead, Li Ying no longer had the strength to scream.
Zhong Wuya didn''t spare her and grabbed her hair again, violently smashing her head onto the water tank.
Once.
Twice.
Three times.
Li Ying remained silent, unable to utter a single sound.
"If you don''t speak, your son will die!"
Jiang Tiansha''s words sent a shudder through Li Ying.
"I remember Qianqian forced you to be her double, and your son was kidnapped, right?" Jiang Tiansha smiled sinisterly, "If you keep your mouth shut, be careful, or your son will be drawn and quartered..."
Drawn and quartered?
Li Ying''s pupils shrank as she hurriedly clung to Jiang Tiansha''s leg, crying out in desperation, "No... no, don''t... don''t kill my son!"
"If you don''t want your son to die, then honestly tell me where my daughter went." Zhong Wuya snarled fiercely, spitting all over Li Ying''s face.
"I''ll tell, I''ll tell!"
As long as Ye Huan could save her child, she didn''t care if she got beaten to death.
But...
Jiang Tiansha and Zhong Wuya used her child, the softest spot in her heart, to threaten her, and she couldn''t withstand it.
"Over a week ago, Zhong Qianqian was scared silly by... by Ye Huan. Then, under the guise of being her double, I sold... sold her to the president of the Leke Group---Shen Xu!"
Li Ying''s words made Zhong Wuya even more furious.
"p!!!"
A pnded. Th*i$s$ chapt*e*r is f*rom* the [emailprotected]$le*ct@i%o&n at M-V*L&-E@M-+P*YR.-
Li Ying''s head hit the wall, and she immediately passed out.
"Damn it."
Zhong Wuya was almost exploding with rage.
Over a week ago, Zhong Qianqian had been sold to Southeast Asia.
No need to think; she had surely be a moneymaking tool in the Leke Group''s red-light district by now.
"Wuya, do you want me to help bring Qianqian back?" Jiang Tiansha asked indifferently.
"No, it''s her own stupidity, losing to Ye Huan. I understand thew of the jungle. Moreover..." Zhong Wuya''s eyes flickered with a harsh light, "With Zhong family''s blood running through her veins, sold to the red-light district, bing so filthy, I''ve wasted over twenty years raising her!"
His anger wasn''t about Ye Huan setting it up to sell Zhong Qianqian to Southeast Asia with Li Ying.
He was mad because Zhong Qianqian, in the red-light district, had be a moneymaking tool, her body and soul filthy beyond recognition, tarnishing the Zhong family bloodline!
Not only did he feel no pity for his daughter, but he also wanted to chop this woman who tainted the Zhong family blood to death!
The level of cruelty was unimaginable.
But if he wasn''t cruel, he wouldn''t have built such a massive underground human trafficking industry in China, ruining thousands of families, tearing them apart.
Jiang Tiansha "understood" his feelings, patted him on the shoulder forfort, then said, "Rest assured, when things are done here, I will have that cursed girl dealt with."
"Mm." Zhong Wuya took a deep breath, pointing to Li Ying, whoy on the floor,pletely unconscious, "As for this woman, you said she''s useful just now, what use does she have?"
"Using her to deal with Ye Huan."
"Isn''t that kid all about deception? We''ll turn the tables and y a counterplot."
Jiang Tiansha let out a couple of sinisterughs.
What he didn''t say was that he nned to use this opportunity to take down Ye Tiance and Ye Huan, father and son, in one fell swoop.
And... Ye Huan''s stunningly beautiful wife would be a nice addition if captured...
Moreover, he nned to sever all ties with the Zhong family after this gig and flee to the West.
The wrath of the Special Service Bureau he could bear, but not the wrath of all of China or the Dragon Gate.
Beside him, Zhong Wuya pondered for a moment and understood Jiang Tiansha''s idea, his eyes gleaming with a chilling light and a sinister smile curling at the corners of his mouth.
The younger son was dead.
The elder son had be a vegetable.
The daughter had be utterly tainted.
All of this was Ye Huan''s handiwork.
With Jiang Tiansha against him, he wouldn''t survive!
At the thought of Ye Huan''s miserable fate, he couldn''t help shivering in excitement.
After a moment of excitement, he didn''t continue discussing Ye Huan, knowing that for Jiang Tiansha, taking out Ye Huan was extremely easy.
"Celestial Killer, there''s something else I''m wondering if you can help with." Zhong Wuya frowned slightly and said, "Shen Xu was put into a police station by Ye Huan. Can you see if you can get him out? Otherwise, dealing with the new Leke Group presidentter will cost us a lot."
"I can''t!"
Jiang Tiansha replied bluntly.
"Why not!" Zhong Wuya''s eyes widened in discontent, "Aren''t you the forty-eighth ranked figure in the Dark World? Isn''t it easy for you to get someone out?"
"Ridiculous!"
Jiang Tiansha had never been angry with Zhong Wuya before.
This time, he was really angry.
His anger indeed frightened Zhong Wuya a lot.
"Don''t bring this up again!"
"The Fifteen Royal ns suddenly turned their faces, from condemning China to begging for peace. Do you know why?"
"God of ughter! ording to my sources, God of ughter has warned on the Dark World official forum that anyone who dares to interfere with Shen Xu''s case will be ughtered!"
Jiang Tiansha''s face remained angry, his voice icy cold.
"Is that... God of ughter really so badass? The Fifteen Royal ns made peace with China because of him?" Zhong Wuya was dumbfounded.
"Nonsense, he might rank thirteenth on the Celestial God Rankings officially, but he fought against the seventh Celestial God---Sun God Apollo and wasn''t defeated! Just his sneeze could shake the world! If I tried to save Shen Xu, my head would be gone by tomorrow!"
"God of ughter isn''t someone you and I can afford to offend!"
Jiang Tiansha''s words left Zhong Wuya even more shocked.
As for his friend Jiang Tiansha''s strength, Zhong Wuya was well aware.
It''s not an exaggeration to call him a deity.
But this so-called deity only ranked forty-eighth in the Dark World.
This God of ughter, whose power rivals the seventh, wouldn''t he be a deity among deities!?
Absurd!
And why would this great deity warn others not to interfere with Shen Xu''s case?
ording to the info, it was Ye Huan who put Shen Xu in there...
While Zhong Wuya was shaken, his heart skipped a beat.
He shook his head, dispelling Ye Huan''s image from his mind.
Ad in his twenties, how could he be the God of ughter?
Even so, Zhong Wuya still wanted to know how powerful this God of ughter was, so he asked, "Celestial Killer, if you faced that God of ughter, how likely are you to win?"
As Jiang Tiansha left the restroom, he left behind a few words.
These words left Zhong Wuya dumbfounded.
"The power of God of ughter is far beyond what you and I can imagine!"
"I would die in one move!"
"And also, have the doctor save this woman; she''s still useful."
"Lastly, dispel any notions of fetching Shen Xu."
"If we offend God of ughter, both you and I are undoubtedly dead!"
Chapter 366 - 364: God of Slaughter? The Low-Key Little Lamb!
Peni Lakefront, S-01.
After sending the message to Li Ying, Ye Huan''s face immediately turned dark.
He suddenly remembered that he seemed to have forgotten something important in the past two days.
Su Qingqing!
Cold sweat broke out on Ye Huan''s forehead as he hurriedly opened the chat with Su Qingqing.
Sure enough
Su Qingqing had sent a few messages!
Damn!
Forgot to unmute the chat, didn''t hear the notification sound!
It''s bad!
In the chat box, two days ago, the day Su Qingqing had just gone to the Capital City, she sent two WeChat messages.
One said she had made a sworn sister and was very happy about going to work at her sister''spany.
The other said: "Are you busy? Goodnight!"
And then...
Nothing else came after.
Ye Huan felt his heart sink and then tentatively sent a message over.
"Sorry, I haven''t checked WeChat these past two days..."
Sure enough, a big red exmation mark appeared.
Deleted!
She probably got angry seeing no reply for a day and deleted him.
Ye Huan wanted to cry but had no tears.
No choice, he had to add her back proactively.
In less than a second, a rejection to add as a friend message arrived.
Ye Huan''s face turned as dark as a pot bottom, and he tried adding her again actively.
In less than a second, he was rejected again.
Repeatedly, over a dozen times, it was still a rejection.
Unwilling to give up, Ye Huan added her once more, typing in the friend request note: "I was wrong, haven''t checked WeChat these past two days, please forgive me."
This time it wasn''t rejected, but it wasn''t epted either.
Ye Huan sighed.
But he was quite surprised.
Made a sworn sister on the first day in the Capital City?
Liu Xiang running the 100-meter hurdles wasn''t this fast.
Luckily, he wasn''t blocked on SMS. The genuine article resides on M|V|L&EMPYR.
Ye Huan sent two "begging for mercy" texts.
No way.
Su Qingqing still didn''t reply, for sure she''s still angry.
Generally, when a woman is angry, you can''t coax her!
Wait for the anger to subside a bit, then trying to coax will be effective!
Ye Huan yawned and then put down his phone, heading back to his room to sleep.
Tonight he didn''t go to B-06.
Because the windows on the second floor of S-01 were reced, and Liu Tianyun showed extreme abnormality, indicating something must have happened at the vi yesterday.
Liu Tianyun''s temper stinks worse than an outhouse stone; asking him likely wouldn''t get any results, so Ye Huan simply didn''t waste time.
Qin Ya was still in aa; probably wouldn''t wake up for another two days, no use asking her.
No choice, Ye Huan decided to temporarily stay at S-01 for a few days to see what was happening.
...
Late at night, in the center of Celestial Sea City, the city hall building was still brightly lit.
"Greetings, Director Ye!"
In the confidential conference room, including City Chief Wang Zhenzhou, the municipal staff all stood up in unison, showing their respect to the serious-looking man before them.
"Hello everyone." Ye Tiance returned the salute, shook hands with Wang Zhenzhou, then sat down in the main seat and went straight to the point, "I presume everyone knows the purpose of my visit to Celestial Sea, so I won''t waste words."
No preamble, directly cutting to the chase.
The municipal staff sat down, their expressions very solemn.
"Recently, the situation in Celestial Sea City has been extremely bad."
"But that''s not your fault, because the people you are up against are experts from the Dark World."
"Some of you may know of the Dark World, but more likely you do not. Let''s just say their power is very strong, so strong that only our Special Service Bureau can deal with them."
Ye Tiance''s eyes were as deep as a starry sea, "Therefore, our Special Service Bureau will dispatch experts to station in Celestial Sea, eliminate those damn things, and also maintain the basic order of Celestial Sea City. This work requires the cooperation of everyone here."
"Rest assured, Director Ye, I''ve made a military pledge. If the cooperation to bring Special Service experts to Celestial Sea fails, I am willing to resign along with the municipal staff." These words from Wang Zhenzhou made the others present twitch their mouths.
However, the power of this statement was indeed great.
If you don''t want to lose, you must take this matter seriously.
Everyone present started taking this matter extremely seriously.
At the same time, their expressions became extremely grave.
The main experts of the Special Service Bureau were about to be stationed in Celestial Sea, doesn''t this mean the criminals hiding in Celestial Sea are very strong, very strong?
"Director Qin, may I speak with you alone?"
As soon as Ye Tiance asked, all the municipal officials except Qin Guangming left the confidential conference room, perceptive enough to see what was needed.
"Director Ye, with Celestial Sea City in this state, I, Qin Guangming, bear unavoidable responsibility; afterwards, I will resign to take responsibility." Qin Guangming, looking apologetic, spoke up first.
"The problems Celestial Sea City faces stem from those damn thingsing from the Dark World, not something your police can handle, it''s not rted to you." Ye Tiance slowly shook his head and then with a gleam in his eye asked, "After arresting Shen Xu of the Leke Group, did anything happen?"
"No." Qin Guangming answered categorically.
"Nothing happened?" Ye Tiance frowned; he wanted to understand why the God of ughter was targeting Shen Xu, especially after issuing a warning on the Dark World''s official forum.
If nothing happened, then why did the God of ughter issue a warning?
Qin Guangming, being an experienced old detective, quickly understood Ye Tiance''s intent and replied, "Director Ye, since Shen Xu was captured, he has been held in the interrogation room up to now, and nothing has happened."
"Check the surveince, investigate meticulously, leave no detail unchecked." Ye Tiance instructed gravely.
"Okay, I''ll personally check when I return." Qin Guangming agreed.
Leaving the confidential conference room, Ye Tiance''s expression remained heavy.
God of ughter.
One of the thirteen Celestial Gods of the Dark World.
Unmatched power.
"What on earth do you want in Celestial Sea?"
Apart from heaviness, a deep worry surfaced on Ye Tiance''s face.
He had already notified the Dragon Gate.
But the Dragon Gate envoys were extremely arrogant, iming that under their surveince, a big figure like the God of ughter could not possibly have sneaked into Huaxia without a trace.
But with such things, better safe than sorry.
The God of ughter couldn''t possibly interfere with Shen Xu''s matter without reason and issue a warning to the whole world, could he?
If such a person starts a massacre, the entire Celestial Sea no one could resist, it would plunge into a living hell!
Ye Tiance sighed deeply, yet felt utterly helpless.
What he didn''t know was
The God of ughter was actually a low-key littlemb,pletely not nning any of that stuff!
Chapter 367 - 365: I Am Your Mom
"Honey, can''t sleep?"
In the Rolls-Royce Phantom, Ye Huan looked at Liu Tianyun who was fastening her seatbelt, making funny faces.
Liu Tianyun had two huge dark circles under her eyes, looking like a panda, her face full of fatigue.
"Mm." The answer was very brief.
She really was suffering from insomnia.
With Qin Ya, the former captain of the criminal police, around, it was slightly better. When no one was around, all she could think of was either the mess about Ye Huan or the night the window was smashed and snakes were thrown into her room.
Turning off the lights made her shiver in fear.
With the lights on, the fear subsided a bit, but she still couldn''t sleep.
She only dozed off in the second half of the night, had a nightmare, and then woke up instantly.
After several cycles of this, she almost went crazy, which naturally resulted in the dark circles and fatigue on her face now.
"Did something happen the day before yesterday or yesterday? Let me help you think about it," Ye Huan said.
Liu Tianyun nced at him but said nothing.
Thinking back to that terrifying night, besides the fear, she was also very angry.
Brought into Ye Huan''s room by Qin Ya to sleep, Ye Huan was nowhere to be found.
No need to guess, Ye Huan must have gone to sleep in B-06.
At first, she had a slight vague difort in her heart.
After deciding to change Ye Huan and gradually ept him, thinking back to this matter, Liu Tianyun felt very sour and extremely displeased.
Liu Tianyun sulkily said, "Nothing."
Ye Huan: "..."
Sensing the temperature in the car drop, Ye Huan cursed in his heart: why does this woman get mad for no reason? It''s ridiculous!
He just snorted coldly and didn''t bother to amuse himself any further. Readaheadandgetupdatesbyvisiting*.
As they drove into the underground parking lot of Tianyun International, neither of them spoke another word.
Even after getting out of the car and entering thepany, it was the same.
But Ye Huan noticed that the employees at Tianyun International seemed different.
Take the receptionists, for instance, their usual looks at him held admiration, respect, and a bit of lust.
Now?
Apart from awe, there was awe! And also a bit of fear!
Usually, they would exchange a few words, but now they didn''t even dare to make a sound, shivering just looking at Huan Ge.
Little did Huan Ge know, the fact that he was the Crown Prince of Huaxia had spread throughout thepany!
With this status, who would dare to casually chat with him like before?
"Hey, what''s wrong with you all? Possessed?!" Ye Huan asked.
The receptionist shivered and said, "Ye... Ye Leader, there''s... there''s ady waiting for you in your office, you''d... better go quickly."
"Who?"
"..." The receptionist didn''t answer. It was Lilu''s instruction, saying not to reveal her identity.
Ye Huan really thought they were possessed, shook his head, and then walked towards the security office.
There was a woman in the office.
A woman who looked stunning.
Upon seeing this woman, Ye Huan frowned slightly, feeling like he''d seen her somewhere before.
"Ma''am, may I ask who you are? Why do I feel like I''ve seen you before?" Ye Huan asked.
Ma''am?
Lilu suppressed her inner fury, gritted her teeth, and said, "Handsome, don''t you think your pick-up lines are a bit old-fashioned? Calling someone ''ma''am'' on the first meeting to catch my attention and then asking if we''ve met? I''ve seen this routine for over twenty years... uh, several years ago."
Ye Huan was speechless, thinking to himself how these women all have such high self-esteem nowadays?
Even if I''m desperate, I wouldn''t be interested in you, "Tianshan Tono," right?
Yes, on the first meeting, besides feeling a bit familiar, Huan Ge could tell she was a "Tianshan Tono."
Even though her skin was wless and radiant, her face without a single wrinkle, and her figure, under the ck fitted outfit, was very hot, she couldn''t escape Huan Ge''s sharp eyes.
urate Age: Forty-eight!
"Handsome, I''ve been waiting for you for a long time." After being annoyed, Lilu smiled slightly and put... a lollipop back in her mouth!
Yes, a lollipop!
"Ma''am, you''re nearly fifty and still eating this stuff? Be careful of diabetes!" Ye Huan kindly reminded.
"You''re almost fifty; I''m only eighteen, eighteen understand? Eighteen!" Lilu pounded the table and stood up, furious and embarrassed.
She really felt like she''d seen a ghost. Aftering to Celestial Sea, she had been dressing in a youthful style.
Just walking on the street, she attracted a bunch of rich businessmen, rich young masters, and youngsters hitting on her. No one could tell her real age, making her very smug, even wanting to use this to tease Ye Huan.
But who would have thought she''d be exposed at first nce, ridiculous!
Eighteen?
Ye Huan rolled his eyes. Having been around a dog master who still looked like a child at over two hundred years old, plus having exceptional judgment, identifying the real age of ordinary people was all too easy.
He didn''t continue with the topic of age and changed the subject, asking, "What do you want from me? I don''t know you, right?"
"Just now you said I looked familiar, and now you say you don''t know me. Truly, you are the perfect scumbag, having harmed many young girls and wives, right?" Lilu sneered, but her heart was full offort.
Yes, veryforting!
"No matter how many I''ve harmed, I have no interest in a ma''am like you. Okay, if you''re here to make trouble, I''ll kick you out now. Don''t affect my sleep... oops, don''t affect my work!" Ye Huan rudely said, sitting on the sofa and crossing his legs.
Lilu: "..."
She was truly infuriated.
If you weren''t my precious son, I''d definitely hit you!
Lilu cursed in her heart and then coldly snorted, "I''m your mom."
"..."
The office suddenly fell silent.
Lilu''s face was full of sincerity, saying, "Really, I''m your mom."
Ye Huan''s face suddenly darkened. He sneered, saying, "You telemarketers are really funny. A few days ago, someone called saying he was my dad, now you im to be my mom, are you two in cahoots?"
"In cahoots?"
"Hmm... we are in cahoots, but..."
Lilu''s face was full of sincerity, "But he really is your dad, and I really am your mom..."
Before she could say more, Ye Huan had already kicked her out of the office and shut the door with a "bang."
"I really am your mom, believe me, if you don''t... we can do a blood test!" Lilu kept knocking on the door, looking anxious.
Ye Huan''s face was as dark as could be and locked the door, truly fed up.
Has the business of harassment calls moved offline?
Harassment is one thing, but why insult too?
One says "I''m your dad," the other says "I''m your mom," ridiculous!
Ye Huan was determined not to open the door, while Lilu was determined to keep shouting outside, extremely anxious.
"Big Baby, open the door, I really am your mom!"
Big Baby?
This woman must have escaped from a mental hospital.
Ye Huan was speechless, said there was a mental patient, then made a call to a mental hospital.
After that, he called the reception pretending to be angry, and said, "From now on, no matter who it is, unless I give permission, no one is allowed into the office! Also, in a while, doctors from the mental hospital will take this woman away, cooperate with them!"
The receptionist naturally agreed in fear and trembling.
After saying this, Ye Huan hung up the phone.
It''s obvious, this woman must have said to the receptionist: "Ah, I''m your leader Ye''s mom..."
Hearing it''s his own mom, how could the receptionist dare to neglect and just let her in.
Ah.
Being handsome is a problem. Not only can you charm teenage girls, but even olderdies can''t resist!
Ye Huan shook his head and sighed repeatedly.
Five minutester, the shouting got fiercer, but it had changed to...
"What are you doing, I don''t have a mental illness!"
"Mental patients all say they''re fine. Ma''am, pleasee with us to the hospital for an evaluation..."
"I really don''t... hey, what are you nurses doing, don''t grab me!!!"
Chapter 368 - 366: Still Shaken
The surroundings fell silent, and Ye Huan breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as he pulled the curtains, ready to nap until the end of the workday
The "ding" of a WeChat notification sounded.
Ye Huan grabbed his phone, surprised.
Hmm?
Su Qingqing actually added him back?
As expected, she was just throwing a little tantrum. Once her temper passed, she softened.
"I''ve got some news for you. I found my brother. He''s doing exceptionally well and married the third daughter of a second-tier family in Capital City - the Huang Family!"
Su Qingqing''s message left Ye Huan a bit dumbfounded.
Hasn''t Su Zhiqiang been in Capital City for less than three months? And he''s already married a second-tier family''s daughter? That''s quite impressive.
But it''s good; as long as he shakes off that ingrate Zhang Ruya and focuses on living life with the Huang family''s daughter, his future is limitless!
"Congratte your brother for me."
Ye Huan sent a message, then his expression darkened.
A red exmation mark!
Deleted again!
Could she have really just wanted to "inform" me?
Damn!
Ye Huan was about to add her back
"Bang!!!"
From upstairs, the sound of shattering ss came crashing down!
Ye Huan''s face changed slightly upon hearing it, and he immediately got up, running up the fire escape.
The CEO''s office!
The loud sound came from the CEO''s office!
In less than a minute, Ye Huan sprinted from the first floor to the top floor!
The CEO''s office was inplete shambles!
Two floor-to-ceiling windows shattered, leaving two huge holes, the floor littered with ss shards, and... streaks of blood!
The blood flowed from snakes that had been cut by the ss!
By the floor-to-ceiling windows, three snakes wriggled continuously, trying to detangle themselves from a mass!
Yes, these three snakes had originally been balled up, and once they hit the floor, they began to move and separate.
King cobra, boomng, ck mamba!
Without exception, these snakes are some of the most venomous in the world.
Even a single drop of their venomous blood can be fatal!
"Whoosh!"
Thetest chapters are uploaded first on *.
Ye Huan flicked his right hand.
Three toothpicks whizzed through the air in unison, creating a razor-sharp white streak, piercing the heads of the three snakes.
Blood spurted from where the snake heads were prated.
"Are you okay?" Ye Huan turned his head, frowning slightly as he looked at Liu Tianyun.
Liu Tianyun''s face was deathly pale, cold sweat streaming from her neck and forehead like flowing water, her pupils constricted with sheer terror.
Ye Huan: "..."
He asked in vain. She doesn''t look like someone who''s okay.
Knowing that someone who''s been scared needs time to recover, Ye Huan didn''t speak further. He picked up a dustpan and broom to clean up the mess on the floor, then brought a mop to wipe the snake blood from the ground.
Liu Tianyun still wore a look of terror, clearly not yet recovered from the earlier ordeal.
...

Chapter 369 - 367: Dare to Offend the God of Slaughter, Death is the Only Outcome!
Until she got home after work, she remained in the same state, unchanged.
"What on earth happened, how could someone throw a snake at your office window?"
Ye Huan drove, his face full of ck lines.
He did nothing all day except stay in the CEO''s office with Liu Tianyun, trying to "enlighten" her.
Unfortunately, during this time, Liu Tianyun didn''t utter a word, didn''t even eat lunch, giving Huan no chance to enlighten her.
After work, it was only after Huan urged several times that she finally reacted, grabbing her bag and getting up to leave the office with him.
Having been like this all day, naturally she couldn''t just suddenly recover.
Liu Tianyun''s face was pale, and she didn''t speak.
The series of events in recent days made her feel an unprecedented panic.
Filthy!
Dirty!
ughter!
Abuse!
Bloody!
Despair!
Pain!
These words aptly reflect the scene of that earthly purgatory!
At the same time, those three months in that earthly purgatory were the painful memories buried deep in Liu Tianyun''s mind, ones she was unwilling to recall. My Virtual Library Empire (*)
It took her over ten years, or even longer, to sessfully forget those things, yet she remembered them so easily again.
In this world, besides herself and Qin Ya, only one person knows she is afraid of snakes, very afraid!
What she''s afraid of... is not the snake itself!
But rather...
A figure ceaselessly emerged in her mind.
A man standing two meters tall, reeking of stench, with a mouth full of yellow teeth, and explosive muscles all over his body, even more brawny than the world boxing champion Tyson!
Because of that man, her despairing and painful three months during childhood were spent in that earthly purgatory!
Could it be... that person hase to find her again?
Wanting to abduct her and take her back to that earthly purgatory?
Cold sweat once again soaked Liu Tianyun''s clothes.
In the driver''s seat, Ye Huan sensed something was wrong with Liu Tianyun, furrowing his brows tightly, and asked again: "What''s wrong with you? You don''t look sick, so if something''s wrong, just say it."
After a moment of silence.
Alright.
Became mute.
Ye Huan''s face was as dark as coal, and he didn''t bother to ask further in vain.
After driving Liu Tianyun back to the vi, he turned the car around and left Peni Lakefront.
Just now Qin Guangming sent Ye Huan a voice message on WeChat, sounding very excited: Qin Ya has woken up!
Without a second thought, Ye Huan headed towards Tianhai City''s First People''s Hospital.
First, to check on her condition;
Second, and most importantly, Qin Ya was with Liu Tianyun that night, she definitely knows what happened;
As long as he asks her, he can learn why Liu Tianyun has been acting so strange these past two days!
...
"Damn it..."
A certain youth hostel in Tianhai City.
Jiang Tiansha lifted a corner of the curtain, cautiously observing the street outside the hostel, looking a bit worried.
With his formidable strength, he could easily discern who were ordinary people and who were masters disguised as ordinary people.
After throwing the snake group through the floor-to-ceiling window of Tianyun International''s CEO office, he realized something was wrong and quickly retreated to this hostel.
Special Service soldiers!
Not only are there Special Service soldiers around Tianyun International, but even on the streets here, there are Special Service soldiers walking by from time to time.
It is easy to imagine that the focus of the Special Service Bureau has already directed straight at Celestial Sea, withrge forces stationed within the city.
Jiang Tiansha''s face was a bit grim.
He wasn''t afraid of Special Service soldiers.
Ordinary Special Service soldiers, even if a hundred of them attacked simultaneously, he could wield his de and y them all.
Even if it''s Ye Tiance, the director of the Special Service Bureau, Jiang Tiansha, with his greatly enhanced strength, is confident to take his life within a hundred moves.
But if the Special Service Bureau notifies Dragon Gate, things would escte greatly.
By then, he would face the joint judgment from Huaxia''s Dragon Gate and the Western Dark World''s Twelve Celestial Gods, even hiding in the Underworld wouldn''t save him from being hunted down and executed.
Jiang Tiansha''s eyes grew cold.
Only by swiftly and unobtrusively eliminating Ye Huan and Liu Tianyun could he seize the opportunity to retreat to the mountains, hiding for ten to eight years to escape the threat to his life.
"Ye Tiance..."
"So what if the troops have entered Celestial Sea, if I want to take your son''s life, what can you do to stop me?"
Jiang Tiansha put down the curtain, his eyes suddenly turning vicious.
Half an hourter.
Celestial Sea City, First People''s Hospital, Presidential-level ICU ward.
"Celestial Killer, I''m nning to take Buwang back to the Capital City. I''ve contacted the national doctors to see if they can try to wake him up."
Zhong Wuya let out a deep sigh, eyes filled with hatred.
Just a quarter of an hour ago, overseas experts he invited had given Zhong Buwang a consultation, and the result was: There is a 99.999% chance that Zhong Buwang will never wake up.
In other words, aside from that tiny sliver of hope, Zhong Buwang would be a vegetative state for life!
His second son was indirectly killed by Ye Huan, his daughter sold to a brothel by Ye Huan.
The only remaining seedling was turned into a vegetable by Ye Huan; his hatred for Ye Huan was beyond overwhelming.
"If the national doctors can''t help, try reaching out to your son''s sect, to see if anyone there can lend a hand in treatment," Jiang Tiansha said indifferently.
"Hmm, that''s all we can do." Zhong Wuya sighed once again, and then said with utmost darkness, "I must kill Ye Huan, otherwise I can''t vent the hatred in my heart!"
"Tonight, I''ll cut off his head and send you a picture with my phone," Jiang Tiansha said, his face and voice extremely calm.
As if cutting off Ye Huan''s head was an exceedingly easy task.
No matter if this was an easy job or not...
In Zhong Wuya''s mind, this was no big deal at all.
In his eyes, Ye Huan was merely a human ant before Jiang Tiansha, one that could be crushed effortlessly.
"I''ll leave everything in the Celestial Sea to you. After it''s done, be sure to cut off the heads of that woman and her son as well!"
Zhong Wuya patted Jiang Tiansha on the shoulder, referring naturally to Li Ying in Jiang Tiansha''s hands.
Jiang Tiansha grasped Li Ying by the cor like a chick, forcibly pushing her into a sack.
Li Ying''s eyes glistened with tears; she wanted to resist butcked the strength.
Still heavily injured, being crammed into the sack with such brute force, the pain she felt rose exponentially.
Her mouth was stuffed with a pair of stinky socks, giving off a shrill "mmph mmph" sound.
After packing her into the sack, Jiang Tiansha pulled out a rope, tied a dead knot at the sack''s opening, then shouldered the sack as he prepared to leave.
At this time, Zhong Wuya frowned and spoke again, looking somewhat serious.
"Celestial Killer, can''t you work something out to get Shen Xu out?"
"I did the math, and if we can''t get Shen Xu out, our subsequent cooperation with the Leke Group might face some obstacles, costing us ten billion, maybe more to resolve, an extremely high cost."
Jiang Tiansha slowly turned his head, face and voice cold, "Dare to pull strings, and that ten-billion cost will turn into our own lives."
"Is that God of ughter really as strong as you say?" Zhong Wuya was a bit unwilling; ten billion is no small number.
"God of ughter is a top-tier powerhouse in the Dark World, unmatched in strength, having fought the Seventh Celestial GodSun God Apollo and remained undefeated, renowned worldwide!"
"Moreover, if he weren''t powerful, how could the Fifteen Royal ns instantly change their stance over one of his posts, bowing to Celestial Sea?"
"And then, I''ll tell you, if I were to face off against the God of ughter, I wouldn''tst a single move."
Jiang Tiansha''s words made Zhong Wuya''s eyes widen in shock.
Notsting a single move?
Doesn''t that mean the God of ughter could kill Jiang Tiansha with just one move?
My God!
From Jiang Tiansha''s previous words, Zhong Wuya already knew the God of ughter was an incredibly strong figure who could make heads of state worldwide tremble in fear.
He thought Jiang Tiansha was also incredibly strong.
But such a mighty Jiang Tiansha admitted he couldn''t even withstand one move against the God of ughter?
Just how powerful is this God of ughter?
"Never bring this up again, or don''t me me for turning against you!"
"Ten billion is just our ie for half a month, nothing more if it''s lost."
"Shen Xu dared to offend the God of ughter; the consequence is doomed to be ''death'', and no one on earth can save him."
"If we dare to work on this, the result will inevitably offend the God of ughter."
"And those who offend the God of ughter only face death!"
After coldly throwing out these words, Jiang Tiansha carried the sack out of the Presidential-level ICU ward.
Zhong Wuya felt a bit unwilling, but he could only swallow his grievances and cast aside the idea of rescuing Shen Xu.
Given how things stood, how could he not know how mighty the God of ughter was?
Offending such a divine-level giant was no different from jumping into a coffin himself!
After leaving the ward, Jiang Tiansha exited through the fire escape, heavily tossing the sack into the car''s trunk.
He got into the driver''s seat and pulled a photo from his pocket.
The photo clearly showed the youthful, childish Liu Tianyun.
Jiang Tiansha pulled his old phone from his pocket.
Afterposing a text message, he sent it out...
Then, he picked up the lighter ced on the car''s console.
"Click."
The lighter sparked a pale blue me.
The photo was ignited, thrown out the window, carried away by the oing wind.
He rolled up the window.
The car engine roared with a "vroom vroom" sound...
Chapter 370 - 368 Qin Ya Awakens
The old Passat driven by Jiang Tiansha had just left, and the Rolls-Royce Phantom driven by Ye Huan arrived at the city hospital.
At the gate, knowing that Ye Huan wasing, Feng Shushan had been waiting there.
"Xiao Ye, it''s enough that you came, why did you bring something too, this... this makes us feel so embarrassed."
"It''s okay, Auntie, it''s the least I can do. Besides, in Qin Ya''s current condition, eating more fruits will help her recovery." Ye Huan smiled and handed over the fruit basket.
Feng Shushan had no choice but to take the fruit basket and then said bashfully, "How much was this fruit basket? I''ll give you the moneyter."
"No need, Auntie, it''s really cheap. How is Qin Ya doing?" Ye Huan changed the subject.
"She''s already awake. Hospital experts had a joint consultation and said her condition ispletely stable, no longer life-threatening, and she can fully recover after resting for about three months."
Feng Shushan was full of gratitude.
If it weren''t for Ye Huan''s intervention, even if Qin Ya hadn''t died at the hands of Tian Huatuo and Doctor Huang, she would have probably sumbed to her injuries.
"That''s good."
Ye Huan nodded with a smile and walked into the hospital with Feng Shushan, entering the elevator.
Walking through the cold corridor of the ICU floor, Ye Huan squinted and focused his gaze on the man directly in front of him.
Facing him was Zhong Wuya, with a cold and sinister expression.
He walked in front, holding an invoice from the hospital, followed by several nurses pushing Zhong Buwang''s bed.
Clearly, he was going to take Zhong Buwang away from Celestial Sea to the Capital City for treatment.
This was the first meeting between the two.
Yet both recognized each other at first nce.
Zhong Wuya had seen photos of Ye Huan.
Ye Huan deduced Zhong Wuya''s identity from his appearance and Zhong Buwang on the bed behind him.
"Enemies" meeting, making their eyes particrly enraged.
The icy atmosphere in the corridor instantly became tense and chilling.
Though the atmosphere was tense, the two did not engage in a direct confrontation.
Zhong Wuya sneered twice.
In his view, with Jiang Tiansha having a true killing intent, Ye Huan''s fate... could only be death!
And this death was about to fall upon Ye Huan!
Having a conflict with a dead man was beneath him.
Since there was no direct conflict, both naturally went their own ways without interfering.
As they passed by each other, they left a message in a voice only they could hear.
"Patriarch of the Zhong Family, you''re nearing youreuppance for all the wicked things you''ve done..."
"Kid, dare to oppose the Zhong Family, your death is near..."
Then.
Zhong Wuya, with a ferocious expression, sneered again and walked into the elevator with the medical staff pushing the bed.
The First People''s Hospital is the best in Celestial Sea after all, not all experts are useless like Tian Huatuo.
Upon entering the ICU, seeing Qin Ya for the first time, Ye Huan confirmed that the expert consultation results were urate.
On the hospital bed, Qin Ya''s face showed a hint of blood color, her lips were somewhat rosy, and the cirction of her blood and qi had resumed smoothly.
As a former head of the criminal police, her physical condition was much stronger than ordinary people, and the recovery of her injuries was faster than Ye Huan had anticipated.
Regarding the subsequent treatment, there wasn''t much need for any means, just bed rest for about three months to fully recover.
"Why are you here?" Qin Ya snorted coldly upon seeing Ye Huan.
"Watch your tone. Xiao Ye is your savior, don''t you know? If it weren''t for him, who knows what would have happened to you. Change your attitude!" Before Ye Huan could speak, Feng Shushan pretended to be angry and scolded.
"Okay, okay." Qin Ya stuck out her lc tongue, her face a bit red, and unusually didn''t talk back.
Previously, being repeatedly outsmarted by Ye Huan had left her with a lot of prejudice against him, and if others reproached her for her attitude towards him, she would have snapped back.
But she didn''t this time.
Because after waking up, she knew it was Ye Huan who had withstood the pressure from two heartless doctors and performed divine-level medical techniques under everyone''s eyes, pulling her back from the gates of hell, even resolving her congenital heart condition.
Saying Ye Huan was not only her benefactor but also that of her whole Qin Family was not an exaggeration.
"Th-thank you..."
Qin Ya, with a flushed face, mumbled, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
For her, saying thank you to Ye Huan was almost impossible, yet this gratitude came from the bottom of her heart.
"No need to thank me, how do you feel now, is there any difort?" Ye Huan smiled and sat on a chair beside her.
"The body is fine." Qin Ya shook her head, then leaned out a bit, scanned around and asked, "Did youe alone? Where is Tianyun?"
"She''s been acting a bit strange these past two days, and someone even broke her office window today. She''s not in a good state, so I didn''t tell her that you''ve woken up." As Ye Huan answered, he directly raised the issue he wanted to ask.
Qin Ya''s face turned extremely grave at these words.
Feng Shushan, being perceptive, knew they had something to discuss, so she said she''d go out for some air and left the room.
Qin Guangming had also left shortly after Qin Ya woke up.
In the room, only Ye Huan and Qin Ya remained. Find the source of this chapter at *.
"Ye Huan, during these three months of my rest, Tianyun''s safety will be entirely up to you. You must stay by her side at all times and protect her; I suspect... she''s been targeted by malicious people!" Qin Ya spoke gravely.
"What exactly is happening?" Ye Huan frowned tightly.
"The night beforest, while Tianyun and I were sleeping, someone suddenly threw a stone and shattered our bedroom window."
"I immediately grabbed a shlight, rushed out to the courtyard to check the situation but saw no one."
"At that moment, I heard Tianyun screaming, so I hurried back to the second floor and found that someone had thrown a snake into the room, a green pit viper!"
Qin Ya recounted everything that happened that night.
Ye Huan''s eyes gradually narrowed into slits as he said, "This morning, someone smashed her office window with a club made of three snakes."
"What, this kind of thing happened again?!" Qin Ya sat up abruptly, her eyes wide open, then cried out in pain.
It was obvious she had overreacted, pulling at her wounds.
"Don''t worry." Ye Huan helped her lie back down and then asked solemnly, "I came this time to ask if Liu Tianyun has offended anyone recently to cause someone to throw snakes at her. Sure, I directly asked her, but she wouldn''t say anything."
Qin Ya shook her head, suppressing the pain, gritted her teeth and said:
"If... if it''s really offending someone that''s... that''s alright, but... the possibility is low!"
"I''ll tell you, Tianyun''s fear of snakes was only mentioned to me, except for her and myself, only one other person knows!"
"That person... was the trafficker who kidnapped her in her childhood! After being abducted, Tianyun was subjected to inhuman torture by traffickers, and the dungeon she was locked in was full of rats and snakes, which is why she''s so afraid of those things!"
Ye Huan''s eyes narrowed sharply, his voice low, "Did she ever tell you what that trafficker looked like?"
Qin Ya thought for a while, then nodded, "She mentioned it to me, seemed like a man over two meters tall, covered in explosive muscles, with big yellow teeth..."
She stopped abruptly, her face changed dramatically, and eximed, "The thug who kicked me is very simr to the trafficker Tianyun described!"
Ye Huan''s expression also changed significantly, a deep unease rising in his heart!
Jiang Tiansha!
The one repeatedly throwing snakes to terrorize Liu Tianyun could very likely be the powerful figure from the Dark World on the Celestial God Rankings!
"Ring ring ring!"
An abrupt phone ringing interrupted.
Ye Huan took out his phone and hurriedly answered.
Caller: Liu Tianyun!
"Help!!!"
Chapter 371 - 369: S-01 Attacked!
As soon as Liu Tianyun''s terrified voice fell.
"Bang."
The sound of something hitting the ground echoed.
A long busy tone came from the phone, call ended!
Ye Huan''s eyes turnedpletely cold as he rushed out the door.
At the same time, Qin Ya''s face turned urgent as well.
"Xiao Ya, what''s going on? Why did Xiao Ye leave in such a hurry?" Feng Shushan came in, looking puzzled.
"Don''t worry about it."
"Mom, call the police right away!"
"No, call dad directly and have him send people to S-01 at the Peni Lakefront!"
...
An old Passat with a roaring engine entered the most upscale vi district of Celestial Sea CityPeni Lakefront.
The stopping point
S-01, in front of the vi gate!
"Bang!"
Jiang Tiansha got out of the car and kicked open the door of S-01 with a sinister gaze.
His tall figure, explosive muscles barely concealed by a worn-out ck coat, left Liu Tianyun in S-01''s hall, who was dialing a number utterly nk.
"More than twenty years, uncle''s here to take you home..."
Fifteen minutes ago, this cryptic message from an unknown number struck Liu Tianyun like lightning.
Fear!
Panic!
Terror!
A series of negative emotions overwhelmed Liu Tianyun''s mind!
It took her a full fifteen minutes to barelye to her senses, then in a state of utter terror, she took out her phone and dialed.
"Help me!!!!!!!"
Liu Tianyun screamed into the phone with all her strength.
As her voice fell, the phone slipped from her palm to the ground, making a "bang" sound.
Because
Her neck was gripped by Jiang Tiansha!
Liu Tianyun wanted to struggle, but after seeing the face of the visitor up close, she couldn''t muster any strength.
She felt suffocated!
"Sweetheart, did you like the gifts uncle sent you over the past few days?" Jiang Tiansha licked his lips, exposing his big yellow teeth to the air.
Gifts!?
So it was him who brought those snakes and rats!
And he was the one who smashed the windows of her upstairs bedroom and office!
As Liu Tianyun felt suffocated, her body trembled uncontrobly, and her limbs went numb.
Jiang Tiansha''s lips curled into a sinister smile, and he suddenly flung Liu Tianyun to the floor, causing her to cry out in pain.
"If you don''te out now, your master won''t have much time left."
Jiang Tiansha''s calm words rendered Liu Tianyun, who was clutching her waist and enduring the pain, stunned.
"Shush! Shush!"
Two sleek ck figures leaped out from the side, guns in hand.
Cold muzzles aimed straight at Jiang Tiansha''s forehead.
"Knowing we''re here, you still dare to harm Miss Liu?"
"You have three seconds to kneel and sp your hands behind your head!"
"Or suffer the consequences!"
The two female special agents, with severe expressions, spoke in low voices, their fingers triggering half of the gun''s lever.
Jiang Tiansha''s face remained unchanged.
Liu Tianyun, however, felt a chill go straight to her Celestial Spirit.
Two armed people "hidden" in the vi, and she didn''t notice at all!
As panic overwhelmed her
Three seconds meant exactly three seconds.
The female special agents were unambiguous.
"Bang!!"
Two shots rang out.
Gunfire erupted, bullets discharged!
Liu Tianyun had never witnessed this kind of confrontation and was immediately scared to tremble slightly.
The scene that unfolded in the next second made her pupils shrink, her spine chilled, and her hair stand on end
Jiang Tiansha did not, as one would expect, fall on the spot pierced by bullets and die instantly.
Not only did that not happen, but rather
"Shooo!!!!"
Jiang Tiansha waved his big hand!
Apanied by a fierce wind, the bullet''s trajectory suddenly changed!
"What!"
The eyes of the two female special agents widened, pupils shrunk to a point, gasping in astonishment.
Even as they cried out in shock, the bullets easily pierced through their bodies, causing them to clutch their abdomens and fall unconscious to the ground with a "thud."
Scolding hot blood, like a spring, flowed from between their fingers.
Jiang Tiansha let out a sinisterugh, his yful gaze sweeping over Liu Tianyun, whose face was filled with shock and eyes as wide as eggs.
Liu Tianyun braced herself against the ground, clenching her teeth as she moved backward, her body trembling incessantly.
Until she retreated to a wall with nowhere else to go
"More than twenty years." If you''re not on *, you''re viewing a copy.
"Now, get up."
"Uncle''s taking you home..."
Jiang Tiansha shed a very "friendly" smile, his eyes narrowing into slits, reaching out his hand.
Just at that moment
A divine lightning bolt descended from the sky!
"Boom!!!!"
The lightning illuminated half of Jiang Tiansha''s face.
Making his face half ck and half deathly pale.
The already creepy smile appeared even more sinister and eerie
Liu Tianyun''s vision went ck, and under the extreme fear, she lost consciousness
Jiang Tiansha continued smiling with narrowed eyes, but withdrew his hand.
He fished a bup sack out of his pants pocket, extending a hand, ready to put Liu Tianyun inside it simultaneously
His eyes suddenly grew cold.
His head abruptly turned to the right.
"Shush shush shush shush shush!!!!"
Countless sharp des shed toward him.
As the des sliced into Jiang Tiansha''s body.
A ck shadow wielding dual des charged violently at Jiang Tiansha!
Kagami Reina''s offensive was extremely fierce.
However
How could the second-ranked assassin dare challenge a super-strong foe from the Celestial God Rankings!?
"Pugh!!!"
Jiang Tiansha delivered a punch, smashing Kagami Reina to the point where blood sttered on the spot, her body flung backward.
"You you''re a strong one from the Celestial God Rankings" Kagami Reina, lying on the ground, cast a gaze filled with utmost shock toward Jiang Tiansha.
Jiang Tiansha, in response, let out a coldugh, as if to say: "You realized this toote!"
Then, with a "p," Kagami Reina lost consciousness.
Thus, a bup sack meant for one person was forcibly stuffed with two by Jiang Tiansha!
Tossed into the trunk.
The car engine roared like a train.
This rundown Passat, amidst the torrential rain and thundering noise, sped off into the distance
That day, Ye Huan noticed the window in Liu Tianyun''s upstairs bedroom had been reced, and, coupled with Liu Tianyun''s unusual state, arranged Kagami Reina to hide by Liu Tianyun''s side, providing her with 24-hour close protection.
But Ye Huan didn''t expect that the person causing anxiety by damaging the upstairs bedroom window would be a Celestial God Rankings expert!
If he''d known, he would have protected Liu Tianyun in person without leaving her side, instead of assigning Kagami Reina to guard her.
The Dark World''s second assassinHundred Transformations, Kagami Reina, already one of the top experts in the Dark World, recently leaped to second ce from the tenth spot on the assassin rankings, sparking heated discussions on the Dark World''s official forum.
Many in the Dark World even believed she was destined to enter the Celestial God Rankings.
Yet such a strong figure couldn''t withstand even a single move in front of Jiang Tiansha!
But that''s entirely reasonable!
Because Jiang Tiansha is a super-powerful figure on the Celestial God Rankings!
Even as thest on the Celestial God Rankings, Jiang Tiansha was still beyond her ability to contend with!
The strength of Celestial God Rankings experts is so formidable that they utterly dominate over other Dark World rankings like the Assassin Rankings, Mercenary Rankings and the like!
A rank fifty on the Celestial God Rankings could single-handedly wipe out all experts from other lists.
For the second assassin, Kagami Reina, she was no match for the Celestial God Rankings expert, Jiang Tiansha!
The strength of Jiang Tiansha is simply terrifying!
Chapter 372 - 370: God of Slaughters Fury!
Ye Huan returned to S-01 at a speed of three hundred yards in just seven minutes.
But S-01 was left inplete disarray.
The ground was covered with blood and shards of ss.
Several police cars arrived at the same time.
"Xiao Ye, what exactly happened here?" Qin Guangming rushed into S-01, looking at the state of the vi''s hall, he couldn''t help but be shocked.
Especially the two women in ck trench coats under Ye Huan''smand.
Qin Guangming recognized them immediately.
Special Service BureauSpecial Service Warriors!
Not only did he recognize them, but with decades of experience in the police force, Qin Guangming also noticed the circr wounds on their abdomens indicating they had been shot.
"I helped them stop the bleeding and temporarily stabilized their injuries. Uncle Qin, you should call 120." Ye Huan stood up and said calmly.
The acupuncture points on the women''s abdomens were pierced with toothpicks.
Qin Guangming nodded.
After calling 120, he asked again, "Xiao Ye, what exactly is going on here?"
"The assant severely injured these two Special Service warriors and then abducted my wife Liu Tianyun and a woman from the Eastern Country."
"By the way, this assant is the same person who kicked Qin Ya into aa, nearly killing her from her injuries."
Ye Huan''s gaze was as calm as a stillke,pletely serene.
But only those who knew him well understood.
He had already, to the extreme, harbored a murderous intent!
Beside him, Qin Guangming was furious.
"This thug is simply audacious beyond belief, it''s outrageous!"
"Notify everyone, seal all nearby roads and streets!"
"Activate all the special forces and armed police, conduct a sweeping search within a hundred kilometers radius centered at Peni Lakefront!"
"Not even mosquitoes should be able to fly out, ensure that the culprit is captured and brought to justice as soon as possible!"
Qin Guangming''s finger traced orders continuously in the air towards the police officers.
Ye Huan, however, stopped him, calmly saying, "It''s useless, this matter isn''t something the police can handle."
Qin Guangming: "..."
It''s not something the police can handle.
Indeed.
Someone capable of critically injuring two Special Service warriors in session, could they be an ordinary person?
Moreover, the footage of Qin Ya being injured had been reviewed repeatedly.
The angle and force of the assant''s kick were something an ordinary person couldn''t possibly achieve.
Qin Guangming took a deep breath and asked, "Then Xiao Ye, about this matter..."
"Contact the Special Service Bureau." Ye Huan interrupted him and then said, "All right, you guys can leave now." K֧p us ging by r֧ding n V_L_YR.
"Xiao Ye, don''t worry." Qin Guangming''s expression was solemn, "We will definitely rescue Miss Liu from the hands of the thug and bring the thug to justice!"
He also knew Ye Huan was vexed about his wife''s unknown whereabouts, and after saying this, he withdrew his unit.
The armed special police surrounding the vi also withdrew.
Ye Huan sat calmly on the sofa.
On the surface calm, but inwardly he was in turmoil, even feeling some self-reproach.
If he hadn''t been impatient then, and instead kept questioning Liu Tianyun until annoyed, and inquired to the end about what happened, he would have personally protected Liu Tianyun, and things wouldn''t have escted to the current situation.
He now only knew that the persons who abducted Liu Tianyun and Kagami Reina was Jiang Tiansha, but beyond that, he knew nothing.
Where would Jiang Tiansha take them?
It''s not hard to guess.
Most likely to the Zhong Family''s hidden base for human trafficking,
"Beep"
Dialing Li Ying''s phone, what greeted him was a mechanical and cold female voice: "The subscriber you are calling has turned off their phone, please try againter."
"Retrieve Zhong Wuya''s driving records as fast as you can!"
Ye Huan could only send her this WeChat message.
After that, he suddenly stood up, eyes zing with fierce anger.
The immense killing intent surged like an endless abyss, so much so that the vegetation outside the vi began to wither, and the smallke surrounding the vi began to boil!
The God of ughter had not been so angry for many years!
In the past, those who dared provoke him to anger.
Without exception...
They have all perished in the Yellow Springs, blood spattered across the ninth heaven!
Today''s fury of the God of ughter is enough to reach the sky!
...
Celestial Sea City, mental illness specialty hospital.
"Madam Li, we''re really sorry!"
"We... we didn''t expect it to be you either, we sincerely apologize!"
"Plea... please forgive us!"
A group of people kept bowing and apologizing, led by a middle-aged man in a doctor''s uniform with a badge indicating him as the dean, followed by a chief physician and eight or nine nurses.
Without exception, aside from the dean, these workers from the mental hospital were the ones who had forcibly brought Li Luo to the hospital in the morning.
In front of the hospital''s main entrance, aside from them, there was also the gnashing teeth of Li Luo, and Ye Tiance with his forehead full of ck lines.
The whole day, Li Luo spent undergoing psychiatric evaluations at the psychiatric hospital, and because she refused to admit she was ill, the medical staff thought she was in deep trouble.
It was stillte at night, half an hour after finishing the necessary examinations, she used the pretext of going to the bathroom to make a phone call to notify Ye Tiance.
When Ye Tiance arrived and revealed his identity and purpose, he immediately frightened the hospital staff.
What a joke, forcibly bringing Ye Tiance''s wife into the hospital for a mental health check!?
Damn!
This is an action that could cost them their heads!
The director nearly died of fright on the spot, hurriedly called back all the doctors and nurses who had gone off duty, and apologized to Li Luo with deep bows.
"I said I''m not sick, yet you still insisted on bringing me into the hospital for tests. You people have nothing better to do!"
Li Luo hissed through gritted teeth,shing out at them with a tirade.
"Sorry, sorry, the sick ones are us. Please, Lady Li, calm your anger!" The director, unhesitant, led the way by bowing and admitting fault.
For a moment, the scene was truly spectacr.
With the psychiatric hospital director leading over a dozen others behind him, all bowing, faces full of remorse and fear, admitting they were the sick ones.
This scene utterly frightened the passersby.
Late at night, all psychiatric patients "escaped," then donned doctor and nurse uniforms, forming a group to scare people in front of the entrance?
Damn!
"That little bastard dared to let the psychiatric hospital take me away, I''m going to skin him alive now!" Li Luo cursed through clenched teeth, then angrily walked toward the ck Hongqi car beside the main door. She didn''t n to further trouble the hospital staff, as after all, they were merely doing their job by bringing her in for tests after receiving the call.
Ye Tiance followed, with even more ck lines on his forehead.
"Where are you driving to? Head to Peni Lakefront, I''m going to skin that brat alive now!" Li Luo snarled from the front passenger seat.
"Stop making a fuss, let''s put this aside for now. I need to get back to work now, and you should stay in the hotel quietly."
Ye Tiance''s expression and voice were extremely serious.
As his wife, Li Luo could naturally discern many things from his expression.
"Is something wrong?" Li Luo furrowed her eyebrows.
Ye Tiance nced at her, not avoiding her gaze, "Our daughter-inw... has been kidnapped by thugs."
"What!" Li Luo eximed in shock, urgently asking, "What happened? Didn''t you assign people to protect her? How could this happen!"
"The two warriors I sent out were seriously injured, the thugs are incredibly strong, and while the whereabouts of the daughter-inw are unknown, it''s confirmed she was taken by them." Ye Tiance''s face was steel-colored and extremely grave.
"Then hurry up and save her!" Li Luo was overwhelmingly anxious.
"Aren''t I nning the course of action and investigating the situation right now!" Ye Tiance''s expression was pitch ck.
"By the way" Li Luo''s face had a tinge of panic, "The thugs took the daughter-inw, they wouldn''t target Dabao too, would they?"
Ye Tiance didn''t respond.
But equally, his heart was filled with worry.
Just a few minutes ago, he had received intelligence regarding the thugs.
Such as footage showing the thugs kicking Qin Ya into severe injury.
Upon viewing the footage, Ye Tiance immediately recognized the man in ck cloth.
Jiang Tiansha!
The most formidable opponent Ye Tiance had encountered eighteen years ago during the Celestial Sword operation!
Pursued him to the border of Huaxia, where they fought for three days and nights before a winner was decided!
Ye Tiance''s final strike severely injured him, but due to exhaustion, Jiang Tiansha managed to escape into the Dark World.
It was at that moment a deadly feud was formed between them.
Eighteen yearster, Jiang Tiansha has returned and directly kidnapped Liu Tianyun, who is Ye Tiance''s daughter-inw.
If it is because he knows Ye Huan''s identity and kidnapped Liu Tianyun to carry out revenge against him
Then Ye Huan''s situation is very dangerous indeed!
The word worried is practically synonymous with Ye Tiance''s current state.
This conclusion he drew from the footage of Jiang Tiansha grievously injuring Qin Ya.
He could see Jiang Tiansha''s power skyrocketing, very possibly having reached the peak level of the Dark World''s Celestial God Rankings!
Most importantly
Ranked thirteenth in the Dark World, yet his strength rivals the seventh Celestial God, the Sun GodApollo''s God of ughter, who likely lurks in Celestial Sea City!
If Jiang Tiansha himself is the God of ughter
The consequences would be unimaginable!
Once he strikes, how could the defenseless Ye Huan resist?
Deploy Special Service Bureau warriors to protect him?
Unrealistic.
Even if every warrior from the Special Service Bureau was dispatched, they would only be fodder for Jiang Tiansha.
Keep Ye Huan under close protection?
It seems that is the only option!
Otherwise, once Jiang Tiansha turns his focus on Ye Huan, Ye Huan is as good as dead!
After all, Jiang Tiansha is very likely the Dark World''s peak powerhousethe God of ughter!
If the God of ughter carries out a massacre, not just Ye Huan, even the entire Special Service Bureau the whole Celestial Sea, would not be able to withstand!
Having made a decision, Ye Tiance took out his phone and dialed a number:
"Director Qin, please have Ye Huane to the State Guest Hotel to receive my close protection."
Chapter 373 - 371: The Judgment of the Five Poison Sect?
"Greetings, Sect Leader!"
In a remote valley of Celestial Sea City, in front of an abandoned building.
Ten men dressed in shabby ck trench coats knelt on one knee, their faces full of respect.
If a master from the Dark World were present, they would be utterly shocked!
Among these dozens of people, some ranked in the top ten of the Dark World mercenary list, some in the top twenty of the Assassin Rankings, some in...
All ten were powerhouses of the Dark World!
Yet at this moment, they were all kneeling before one person!
Jiang Tiansha!
"Rise."
Jiang Tiansha waved his hand indifferently and then carried two bup sacks into the building.
The ten followed him, heads lowered.
Five Poison Sect, a force established by Jiang Tiansha in the Dark World, gathered many capable individuals, totaling over a hundred disciples under its banner.
The ten present here were the topbat forces of the Five Poison Sect.
The deceased third assassin of the Dark WorldPoison Valley, was their senior brother and also the Vice Sect Leader of the Five Poison Sect.
It''s hard to imagine that Jiang Tiansha, bursting with explosive muscles and immense power, would have such a sinister technique as his trump card and would even open his doors to teach it.
Jiang Tiansha''s ambition was heavy.
The purpose of founding the Five Poison Sect was to challenge the Celestial God title after his power soared a centuryter; at worst, he aimed to reach the level of the God of ughter.
Yes, he believed he would need a hundred years to catch up to the God of ughter''s goal...
Achieving powerparable to the God of ughter and having a force like the Five Poison Sect, there was indeed hope of bing the thirteenth Celestial God.
After all, the God of ughtercked his own force; the Celestial God title was merely a description of his strength.
By then, the Five Poison Sect should be renamed: Five Poison Divine Hall!
"Are you all aware of your senior brother''s issue?"
After passing through the filthy prison area, Jiang Tiansha walked into a luxurious suite and carelessly threw the two bup sacks onto the ground.
Three muffled "whimpering" sounds came from the two sacks in total.
The ten entered, their faces fierce.
"We know about senior brother''s issue... Please ept our condolences, Sect Leader."
"That person is incredibly bold to dare oppose our Five Poison Sect, totally courting death, unforgivable!"
"Rest assured, Sect Leader, we will avenge our senior brother, tearing that person apart..."
Before they could continue.
Jiang Tiansha interrupted them with a coldugh.
"The one who killed Poison Valley is the first assassin."
As soon as he said this, the ten fell silent.
Though they were strong, they had a keen understanding of their limits. To report errors, please visit the original post on *.
In front of the top spot on the Assassin Rankings, they were negligible.
Daring to seek revenge was a death wish.
"I summoned you to Huaxia not to seek revenge from the first assassin."
"I want you here to judge him alongside me; daring to kill my most prized disciple, this one must die without fail!"
"I will personally cripple his five limbs here, making him face the deadly judgment of our Five Poison Sect!"
"Additionally, I will elevate the prestige of our Five Poison Sect, intimidating all the small fry!"
Jiang Tiansha''s words were filled with authority and murderous intent, making the ten powerful figures shiver uncontrobly.
"Sect Leader is wise."
Though shivering, the ten praised in unison, but inwardly they scoffed.
It seemed the Sect Leader intended to use the first assassin as a stepping stone!
What a fool the so-called first assassin was, truly courting death.
Why provoke anyone but choose to offend the Five Poison Sect?
Moreover, the way he provoked the Five Poison Sect was by killing the Sect Leader''s most beloved disciple.
With the first assassin''s strength, except for the territories of the Celestial God Rankings'' strong, he could have ruled anywhere, livedfortably anywhere.
But now, having offended the Five Poison Sect and Jiang Tiansha from the Celestial God Rankings, he was headed straight for a coffin.
"The trial date for this one is set for tonight."
"Additionally, there is something you must heed; after the trial, you are forbidden to linger in Huaxia and especially forbidden to seek entertainment in Celestial Sea City. You must leave Huaxia promptly."
"The God of ughter is in Celestial Sea City. If you inadvertently offend him, our Five Poison Sect will face total annihtion, and none would save us, understand?"
Jiang Tiansha added these words sternly, as he was well aware of these disciples'' tendencies to experience local "culture" wherever they went, hence the warning.
No joke, even if each of these ten had a hundred galldders, they wouldn''t dare interact with the God of ughter.
After all, making a mistake with a single word might displease the God of ughter, resulting in offending him.
And the consequence of offending the God of ughter was death!
Initially, they were indeed prepared to savor Huaxia''s "local culture" in Celestial Sea City, but now they were giving up that idea.
The ten responded loud and clear in unison: "Understood."
Jiang Tiansha waved his hand.
The ten understood and respectfully bowed to him before exiting the suite.
Jiang Tiansha didn''t really need such a grand gesture, bringing the entire upper echelon of the Five Poison Sect to Huaxia.
But... he wanted to establish authority!
The Five Poison Sect''s name wasn''t significant in the Dark World, attracting other forces'' covetousness, wanting to swallow it and erge themselves.
Jiang Tiansha, as the Five Poison Sect''s topbat force, was often concealed in Huaxia, unable to protect the Five Poison Sect far away in the Western Dark World.
Thus, the Five Poison Sect suffered continuous small-scale attacks from other forces, even showing signs of intensifying.
Jiang Tiansha''s move was topletely deter those with intentions!
Who is Ye Huan? The foremost assassin in the Dark World!
The Five Poison Sect''s powerhouses were out in force, judging the first assassin who offended them, and would send the first assassin to the Yellow Springs; once such news spread, it would shock the entire Dark World!
Moreover, other factions with nothing better to do would no longer dare provoke the Five Poison Sect.
The fate of the first assassin is clear; to provoke the Five Poison Sect is to seek death!
Indeed, Jiang Tiansha intended to use Ye Huan as a stepping stone, letting the Five Poison Sect trample over him, allowing the Dark World to truly recognize the terrifying power of the Five Poison Sect!
After the ten left, Jiang Tiansha roughly untied the two sacks on the ground, "pouring" out three women from the sacks.
The three women inhaled sharply in pain.
After exchanging nces, they turned their eyes to Jiang Tiansha.
Jiang Tiansha had a bizarre grin on his face, hisrge yellow teeth appearing particrly creepy under the incandescent light...
...
Celestial Sea City, Peni Lakefront, S-01.
"Xiao Ye, you should go to the State Guest Hotel; there will be experts from the Special Service Bureau to protect you."
"Your wife is now abducted, indicating that the culprit''s target might also be you. If you''re next, your situation will be extremely dangerous!"
"Let me put it this way, do you know the Dark World?"
On the other end of the phone, Qin Guangming''s voice was anxious and urgent.
Ye Huan was a great benefactor to his Qin Family, and he didn''t want to see a benefactor be the target of those culprits, getting hurt by them.
"I know." Ye Huan, was exasperated; he was the pinnacle powerhouse in the Dark World, wasn''t he?
"Good, because it''s much easier for me to exin."
"There''s a ranking list in the Dark World for the strong called the Celestial God Rankings, featuring extraordinarily powerful beings! ording to reliable information, the God of ughter, ranked thirteenth on the Celestial God Rankings, is extremely likely to be hiding in our Celestial Sea City!"
"And this culprit is a highly capable individual; ording to the description by the Special Service Bureau''s leader Ye Tiance, this culprit is almost capable of single-handedly taking on the entire Special Service Bureau, terribly fearsome!"
"Ye Tiance spected that this culprit is very likely the God of ughter!"
"If you don''t ept protection from the Special Service Bureau, once the God of ughter acts, your life will be in danger, Xiao Ye!"
Chapter 374 - 372: Wasnt that post made by Ye Huan?
As Qin Guangming continued speaking, more lines of frustration appeared on Ye Huan''s forehead, but he wasn''t in the mood to exin anything to Qin Guangming.
"Uncle Qin, there''s no need for protection, I can protect myself."
"Xiao Ye, listen to me, you might not understand, but I''m clearly telling you! The God of ughter is a peak powerhouse in the Dark World known as the Thirteenth Celestial God. He''s no small fry. If he intends to harm you, you''ll be in extreme danger. You should go to the State Guest Hotel for protection!"
Ye Huan didn''t give Qin Guangming a chance to continue speaking and resolutely hung up the phone.
Qin Guangming''s "praises" genuinely gave Brother Huan goosebumps.
If that thug, namely Jiang Tiansha, wasing to send his head, Ye Huan would be more than happy to wee it.
However, what was troubling him now was that he didn''t know Jiang Tiansha''s location. Otherwise, he would have already rushed there at the fastest speed to rescue Liu Tianyun and Kagami Reina from Jiang Tiansha''s clutches!
All he could do now was wait for Li Ying''s response!
As long as she extracted Zhong Wuya''s dashcam footage, Ye Huan could find the ce where Jiang Tiansha was hiding.
He was waiting.
At the temporarymand center on the top floor of the State Guest Hotel in Celestial Sea City, Ye Tiance was also waiting.
After receiving Qin Guangming''s response, his face turned anxious.
What a joke.
Jiang Tiansha could very well be the God of ughter!
If he were to attack Ye Huan, my unacknowledged son would be reporting to King Yama!
"Director Qin, don''t worry about this matter. I''ll send someone to forcibly bring Ye Huan over."
"What you need to do now is exactly what I instructed youst time: investigate carefully." MyVirtualLibraryEmpire(*)thanksyouforreadingatthesource.
"Find out why the God of ughter is speaking for Shen Xu, and what kind of rtionship exists between the God of ughter and Shen Xu. As long as we clear up this line, we can follow the trail and confirm who the God of ughter really is!"
"This time, change your approach; don''t check the surveince, just expedite the interrogation of Shen Xu and ask if he knows Jiang Tiansha and whether he has any grudge with Jiang Tiansha!"
After issuing these orders to Qin Guangming, Ye Tiance hung up the phone and, with a serious expression, looked at the two special agents on either side, instructing, "You go to the S-01 vi at Peni Lakefront and persuade Ye Huan, be sure to have him ept our protection at the State Guest Hotel. If necessary, knock him out and bring him back!"
"Yes!"
The two senior colonel-level experts respectfully saluted and then left the temporarymand center to carry out their orders.
Ye Tiance''s face was extremely solemn as he watched the footage ying on the screen in front of him over and over again.
In the video, Qin Ya was repeatedly kicked unconscious by Jiang Tiansha.
The more he watched, the more rmed Ye Tiance felt.
This seemingly simple kick contained an incredible amount of precision and technique!
Celestial God Rankings.
Previously, it was just a suspicion.
But now, Ye Tiance was 100% certain that Jiang Tiansha had definitely entered the Celestial God Rankings of the Dark World!
The main thing was, this kick was only something Jiang Tiansha casually threw out; his true strength wasn''t even disyed.
Given the intel that the God of ughter might be hiding in Celestial Sea City, Jiang Tiansha genuinely had every reason to be worried.
If Jiang Tiansha is the God of ughter,
Celestial Sea will be turned upside down by him!
Ye Tiance''s strength is indeed formidable, enough to rival someone ranked fiftieth on the Celestial God Rankings.
But to battle with the God of ughter, he knew he couldn''t withstand even a single move!
The immediate task was to confirm one thing!
That is, whether Jiang Tiansha has a grudge against Shen Xu!
If they have a grudge, it would exin why the God of ughter posted a warning on Dark World''s forums, cautioning nations not to interfere in Hua Nation''s handling of Shen Xu''s issue.
It would also indirectly prove that Jiang Tiansha is the God of ughter!
Once evidence and testimony proving Jiang Tiansha is the God of ughter are secured, the Dragon Gate can send powerful Celestial Dragon-ranked experts to destroy him.
"Boom!!!!"
Yet another terrifying thunderp.
The daily weather forecast program on Hua Nation Satellite TV, aired two hours ago, predicted that it would be cloudy tonight.
But just after the broadcast, a raging wind and torrential rain brought on by a godly thunderbolt from the nine skies pped them hard.
Ye Tiance walked to the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the scene outside, and couldn''t help but let out a deep sigh, full of anxiety.
Outside the window, garbage bags, leaves, and other debris scattered on the ground were being swept up by fierce winds, swirling in the air.
The torrential rain washed over the mboyant city again and again.
The dark sky, with thunder and lightning, seemed ready to copse.
Natural anomalies, Celestial Sea City... something major is going to happen!
God of ughter, who are you!
What purpose do you haveing to Celestial Sea!
...
Celestial Sea City, Police Headquarters, Interrogation Room.
"Do you know this person?" Qin Guangming turned theptop screen towards Shen Xu''s eyes, his voice cold.
On theptop screen was an image of Jiang Tiansha captured from the footage where Qin Ya was kicked.
Very blurry.
Shen Xu shook his head, indicating he didn''t know him.
At this moment, where was his appearance as an elite of the upper-ss society?
His face was full of stubble, unkempt and shabby.
As a people''s policeman, Qin Guangming naturally didn''t believe his nonsense. He snorted coldly and added, "This person is named Jiang Tiansha, are you sure you don''t know him?"
Jiang Tiansha?
Shen Xu froze, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
He really felt a bit familiar...
That''s it!
He remembered, Zhong Wuya had mentioned to him before that there was a strongman from the Dark World backing the Zhong Family, and that person was named Jiang Tiansha!
"I... I know of him, but I don''t know him personally," Shen Xu answered.
"p!"
Qin Guangming mmed the table, startling Shen Xu.
"Don''t know him? Is this person very famous? You know of him but don''t know him? Ridiculous!" Qin Guangming immediately caught the w in Shen Xu''s words.
But Shen Xu wasn''t lying.
Trying to assassinate Ye Qiqing was already a capital crime warranting execution.
If he''s further linked ambiguously to other criminals, he could be executed ten times over!
In that case, he wouldn''t even have anyone to reason with!
"Officer, I... I really don''t know him. Whatever crime he''smitted, it has nothing to do with me!" Shen Xu said urgently, trying to disassociate himself.
"He didmit a crime, but it has nothing to do with you. We''re not looking to pin his crimes on you today, don''t worry about that."
Qin Guangming knew Shen Xu had information, so he gave a reassuring pat.
Shen Xu breathed a sigh of relief and awkwardly asked, "Then... Officer, why are you here to question me?"
"Today, I''m here to ask you if you have any grievance with this Jiang Tiansha?" Qin Guangming asked directly.
"No grievance," Shen Xu replied honestly.
"Bang!!!"
Qin Guangming mmed the interrogation table, splitting it in half, feigning anger.
The effect was quite good, and Shen Xu turned pale with fright.
Qin Guangming''s face darkened as he continued interrogating, "You have no grievance with him, so why did he post on the Dark World forums warning the fifteen royal families not to intervene when you contacted them to pressure Celestial Sea regarding your arrest?"
Shen Xu was stunned and blurted out:
"That post... wasn''t it made by Ye Huan?"
Chapter 375 - 373: God of Slaughter Ye Huan!
"What did you say!"
Qin Guangming was taken aback, his eyes wide open.
"I... I said that the post was... was posted by Ye Huan..."
Before he finished speaking, Shen Xu covered his mouth.
Ye Huan hadn''t told Qin Guangming about the God of ughter''s identity, and now that he said it, wasn''t that leaking the secret?
Being shot a hundred times wouldn''t be enough, damn it!
"I... I got it wrong, the post, no... it wasn''t Ye Huan..." Shen Xu weakly voiced, trying to defend himself.
But Qin Guangming already rushed out of the interrogation room in a hurry.
All that was left for Shen Xu was the loud "bang" of the iron door closing behind him.
Qin Guangming took out his phone and directly dialed Ye Tiance''s number.
His face was full of shock!
The God of ughter was actually Ye Huan!
The person he had just been trying to persuade over the phone was actually the God of ughter!
How ridiculous, he foolishly kept asking whether he knew about the Dark World...
The man is the pinnacle strongman of the Dark World!
epting protection from special agents?
Laughable!
It would be more reasonable for the special agents to ept his protection!
Not understanding the God of ughter''s strength?
Laughable!
The God of ughter is Ye Huan himself!
Should have thought of it earlier.
Jiang Tiansha had never had contact with Shen Xu, except when grievously wounding Qin Ya, he had never exposed himself to the police; how could he have known about Shen Xu''s arrest?
Only Ye Huan!
Ye Huan had sworn confidently back then that the fifteen royal families would definitely "talk sense" with the Celestial Sea.
The fifteen royal families were absolutely a family that "distinguishes between right and wrong and understands reasoning."
He also kept saying that preparing to have Shen Xu executed was enough, there was absolutely no need to release him.
That already exined a lot of things!
But Qin Guangming had never thought in that direction!
The God of ughter, ranked thirteenth on the Celestial God Rankings of the Dark World.
A year ago, undefeated in a battle with the seventh Celestial God, Sun God Apollo, gained worldwide fame!
Such a powerful being, right by his side?
Ye Huan was actually the God of ughter!?
The call still could not be connected.
Called three times, only to hear the busy line message of the other party already in a call.
After putting down his phone, Qin Guangming left the police station and drove towards the Grand Hotel.
This explosive news must be conveyed to Ye Tiance quickly!
At the same time, Ye Tiance hung up the call, urgently roaring out loud.
"Send out the notice for all experts to fully arm themselves and follow me to strike!"
"Chase after the Rolls-Royce Phantom heading for National Highway G-01 with the license te ''Tian A:TCLY666'' as fast as possible!"
"Notify Dragon Gate to dispatch experts from the top ten of the Divine Dragon Rankings toe for support, speed is crucial!!!"
...
Ten minutes ago.
At the Peni Lakefront, in the vi hallway of S-01 in Celestial Sea City.
Two high-ranking experts from the special forces were tied back to back, hands and feet bound, with dust cloths sealing their mouths, sitting on the bloodstained floor beside the sofa.
Don''t me Brother Huan for being "ruthless and merciless."
They were just too annoying!
Brother Huan is a Celestial God-level strongman, after all; dealing with Brother Huan is not something the special forces experts can handle, seriously!
Protection, what a joke!
If the renowned God of ughter epted protection from other factions, it would surely be aughingstock throughout the Dark World.
Having said he wouldn''t ept protection, these two wanted to make a move.
Ye Huan had no choice but to subdue them.
"Mm mm mm..."
The two top experts continued to struggle and make sounds.
Though unintelligible, it was easy to guess they were trying to persuade Ye Huan to go back with them to ept protection from special forces.
"ept your protection? With your half-baked skills, who can you protect?" Ye Huan retorted impatiently.
The two experts immediately turned red with shame, speechless.
Indeed, they, as high-ranking experts, were taken down and subdued in a second by the one they were supposed to protect; the disparity in strength was already evident, who needs their protection anymore?
Shameful!
They had utterly embarrassed themselves!
Once the two quieted down, Ye Huan''s irritation noticeably subsided.
After exhaling a long-held breath, he took out his phone, flipped through his contact list, stopped at Li Ying''s, and dialed again.
Yet the response was still the cold, mechanical voice of the system: "The number you''ve dialed is currently unavable."
Ye Huan''s heart began to sink deeper and deeper.
Could it be that Li Ying, while retrieving Zhong Wuya''s dashcam footage, was discovered by Zhong Wuya or someone else?
If so, not only would her situation be extremely perilous, but they would also be unable to find out where Jiang Tiansha had taken Liu Tianyun.
The situation of Liu Tianyun and Kagami Reina would also be exceedingly dangerous!
A deadlock!
Just when Ye Huan was at a loss, the phone rang.
At the sight of the caller ID, Ye Huan''s eyes narrowed into slits, danger clearly shing across them.
Caller: Liu Tianyun! The reference version of this chapter is on *.
"Jiang Tiansha?" After answering the call, Ye Huan was the first to speak, his voice deep and grave.
"..."
"p. p. p."
After a silence, a round of apuse came from the other end of the line.
"You''re very smart." Jiang Tiansha stopped pping and disdainfully nced at Liu Tianyun, who had fallen to the floor, shivering.
"What on earth do you want?" Ye Huan''s eyes were as cold as an abyss.
Jiang Tiansha scoffed, then said with a mocking tone, "You killed my disciple, Jiang Tiansha''s disciple, do you think I won''t avenge him? Unfortunately, I don''t know who your disciple is, so I can only take your wife to vent my anger, but I guess, the Hundred Transformations Clown I have is your disciple, right?"
"Your disciple from Poison Valley sought his own death, wanting to top the Assassin Rankings without the necessary skill..."
"I don''t want to argue with you; Poison Valley''s ipetence is not my concern, but as his master, I definitely must avenge him. It''s very simple, you kill my disciple, I''ll send your wife and disciple underground to reunite with him, an eye for an eye, straightforward stuff."
Jiang Tiansha''s indifferent words interrupted Ye Huan.
In the next second, there was a disgusting "slurp" sound from the other end of the phone.
"Your wife and disciple must die, but ah..."
"They are truly exquisite."
"Tsk tsk, I really can''t bear to let these two beauties die just like that."
"I''ll take them down first, then avenge my disciple, and send these two exquisite pieces down to him for his enjoyment, tofort his spirit in heaven~"
"Hahaha."
As Jiang Tianshaughed obscenely, he reached out to touch Liu Tianyun''s exquisitely beautiful face.
Liu Tianyun, although terrified, instinctively dodged, letting out a scream.
Jiang Tiansha''s face was full of amusement.
He didn''t continue to reach out his hand.
Because all he wanted was Liu Tianyun''s scream.
Take down Liu Tianyun?
It''s not toote to do that after killing Ye Huan.
His goal was to enrage Ye Huan.
Unlike what he imagined.
Ye Huan''s voice was extremely calm.
So calm... it sent a chill down one''s spine.
"I''ll give you a chance, if you don''t want to die, return my people to me the same way you took them..."
Ye Huan hadn''t finished speaking.
With a sneer from Jiang Tiansha, the call was disconnected.
Meanwhile, in the abandoned building, in a luxurious underground suite.
Jiang Tiansha pulled out another phone, looking at the pale-faced, trembling Liu Tianyun, squinted and leered,forting, "Rest assured, uncle doesn''t have the leisure to take you now, I''ll kill your husband first, then take you, then send you down to reunite with him, hahaha!"
As he finished speaking, Jiang Tiansha sent the prepared dashcam footage to Ye Huan via WeChat.
That''s right, this phone was Li Ying''s.
"Ye Huan will callter, you don''t need me to teach you what to say, right?" Jiang Tiansha pinched Li Ying''s chin, smiling as he asked.
Li Ying, still gravely injured from being beaten by Zhong Wuyast time, was wrapped in bandages on her face.
Her bandaged head shook like a rattle drum.
"What, need me to teach you?"
"Alright then, let me teach you."
With that, Jiang Tiansha flung her to the ground and walked out of the suite.
Li Ying felt herself almost losing consciousness from the pain.
Liu Tianyun swallowed her fear, exchanged a nce with Kagami Reina, and then helped her up.
Li Ying felt a little morefortable and cast a grateful nce at the two women.
In the next second, Jiang Tiansha, clutching the neck of a filthy, wailing three-year-old boy, walked into the suite.
Li Ying''s pupils contracted; despite the pain, she cried out and lunged at Jiang Tiansha.
But she, an ordinary woman, could not possibly be a match for Jiang Tiansha.
Jiang Tiansha pinched the boy''s neck with his right hand, and with his left, pped Li Ying to the ground, then stomped her abdomen, causing her to spit out a mouthful of hot blood.
This scene made Liu Tianyun''s pupils shrink, biting her lip and lowering her head, not daring to watch.
Then...
"Smack!"
Another p.
The boy''s cries stopped abruptly as he fell to the ground, fainting away.
Seeing this, Li Ying cried ever more painfully.
She wanted to check on her son but could not move.
"Do you still need me to teach you now?" Jiang Tiansha looked down at her, squinting and smiling.
This smile in Li Ying''s eyes sent a piercing chill through her entire being.
The smile of a demon!
Fearing that Jiang Tiansha would harm her son again, Li Ying nodded continuously through her tears, indicating her willingness to cooperate.
Just then, the phone rang...
Jiang Tiansha gave the boy on the ground a meaningful nce, then returned the phone to its "rightful owner."
Li Ying, her hands trembling, took the phone and answered it.
She adjusted quickly, her voice calm.
"Hello?"
"Yes, this is the dashcam footage I retrieved from Zhong Wuya."
"Yes, I''m fine. The phone was out of battery before, sorry for not picking up..."
Beside her, Jiang Tiansha had a smug grin.
After all, Ye Huan is the top assassin, not someonecking in intelligence, so he yed a minor trick.
Easily abducting the second assassin, Hundred Transformations, and taking down two elite operatives already showed his formidable strength.
Jiang Tiansha feared Ye Huan would realize he was a Celestial God Rankings strongman, and thus hide like a turtle, unwilling toe rescue Liu Tianyun, so he provoked him first, making him lose his reason.
Then amidst Ye Huan''s anger, he sent him the dashcam footage he wanted.
This footage naturally included the address of this secret base.
In the extreme anger, Ye Huan would certainly not overthink it, absolutely woulde to the abandoned building!
Once hees, he can be subjected to the death trial of the Five Poison Sect!
But...
Jiang Tiansha clearly hadn''t heard that saying.
The idea was beautiful, reality is harsh...
What he didn''t know was that he was soon to reach the Yellow Springs, filled with regret and repentance.
Afraid Ye Huan won''te?
Where in the world is there a ce a God of ughter wouldn''t dare to go!?
Sending Ye Huan the dashcam footage proactively?
Digging his own grave!
As for provoking Ye Huan?
The rage of a God of ughter, how could a mere ant like him endure?
...
"Youwhere are you going!"
One of the elite operatives managed to spit out the cloth from his mouth, asking anxiously.
Ye Huan shot them a cold nce.
Before stepping out of the vi, he waved his hand, leaving behind a calm yet murderous sentence.
"Kill those who deserve to die."
Chapter 376 - 374: Slash?
Kill those who deserve it?
The faces of the two colonels from the Special Service Bureau turned extremely anxious.
The content of the call Ye Huan just made was entirely clear to them!
On the other end of the line... it was Jiang Tiansha!
Ye Huan''s implication was nothing less than preparing to go kill Jiang Tiansha!
Are you kidding, Jiang Tiansha is likely to be a God of ughter whose power has already reached the Transformation Realm!
Going there is not to kill him, it''s to die!
"Bang!"
One colonel fiercely tore off the rope bound to his hands and urgently took out his phone to report the situation here to Ye Tiance.
...
In front of the National Guest Hotel, Celestial Sea City.
"General Ye, the situation... the situation has been rified..." Qin Guangming hurriedly got out of the car, ran up to Ye Tiance, eager to reveal Ye Huan''s true identity to him, but out of breath, he couldn''t say it all at once.
Ye Tiance had no patience to listen, leaving a "Report when I return" before hopping into the Hongqi car and speeding up to 200 km/h, the car rocketing away.
Qin Guangming: "..."
Coming to his senses, he was startled by the scene before him.
In the sky, armed helicopters roared continually.
Following Ye Tiance''s speeding Hongqi car were up to a hundred heavy armored vehicles!
The fullbat force of the Special Service Bureau had assembled together!
Though unclear about the situation, Qin Guangming got back into the police car and chased after the convoy.
The God of ughter, one of the thirteen Celestial Gods of the Dark World, is right beside us!
This explosive news must be quickly conveyed to Ye Tiance!
"General, Dragon Gate refuses assistance. They im that experts on the Celestial God Rankings cannot prate into Huaxia under their watch without a sound, let alone a Celestial God Level God of ughter."
In the front passenger seat of the Hongqi, a major general with a star on his shoulder put away his phone and ryed the Dragon Gate envoy''s words verbatim.
"What, wasn''t the footage sent to them!" Ye Tiance''s face turned grim as he sped up.
"The Dragon Gate envoy said that the person in the video is powerful, but it doesn''t prove hees from the Dark World. They need evidence before they''ll send aid."
"Damn it!"
Ye Tiance angrily pounded the steering wheel.
How could he not understand why Dragon Gate refused aid?
Reputation!
Once admitting that a top expert on the Celestial God Rankings, especially a highly dangerous expert like the God of ughter, had infiltrated Huaxia undetected under Dragon Gate''s nose, Dragon Gate would utterly lose face, mocked by the entire Dark World.
After all, Dragon Gate had conducted numerous experiments.
Experts on the Divine Dragon Rankings would often be expelled or besieged to death the moment they infiltrated the Dark World.
If a Celestial God Rankings expert could infiltrate Huaxia as if it were unguarded, both Dragon Gate and the Divine Dragon Rankings would be theughingstock of the Dark World,ughed at universally.
Those old folks on the Divine Dragon Rankings love nothing but face, so despite knowing the opponent''s Celestial God Rankings strength, they refuse to acknowledge it or offer assistance!
"We can only... take it one step at a time!"
Ye Tiance sighed deeply, his brows furrowing into a thick rope.
The God of ughter, a pinnacle powerhouse who fought against the Dark World''s seventh Celestial GodSun God Apollo without defeat!
His power is enough to rm and terrify the whole world!
His power is enough to make world leaders tremble with fear!
If Jiang Tiansha truly is this supreme powerhouse, the God of ughter...
Ye Huan''s oue in going would undoubtedly be death!
Not only Ye Huan, but possibly the entire Special Service Bureau would be buried at Jiang Tiansha''s hands!
We can only hope.
Hope that Jiang Tiansha is not the God of ughter!
Thunder roared as rain like a waterfall relentlessly battered the car windows.
Ye Tiance knew.
Celestial Sea was about to change!
...
"Boom!"
A thunderp echoed through the night sky.
White lightning illuminated the firmament.
A Rolls-Royce Phantom, parked in front of an abandoned building.
Inside on the first floor, Jiang Tiansha and his ten disciples had long been waiting.
Amidst the downpour, Ye Huan opened the car door and stepped out, allowing the rain to beat against his body, his eyes as calm as a tranquilke, no ripples in sight.
With hands in his pockets, he gazed directly at the eleven people ahead.
And...
Beside the eleven, like an electric fan, tied around the waist with a thick rope, hung unconscious from the ceiling, was a woman.
Li Ying.
As expected.
Although Li Ying seemed very calm on the previous call, relying on keen insight, Ye Huan still detected a slight tremor in her voice.
Coupling this with the phone being off for a long time, Ye Huan had already spected that Li Ying was exposed and captured.
"You don''t seem very surprised?" Jiang Tiansha, wearing a ck knee-length tattered trench coat, stood with his hands behind his back.
"Voluntarily sending me your location, do you really want to die so badly?" Ye Huan said indifferently.
"You''re smart, yet not so smart."
Jiang Tiansha''s face was full of sarcasm.
He referred to Ye Huan''s intelligence in quickly realizing that Li Ying''s returning call and the driving record were all traps he set.
But not smart enough to realize how terrifyingly powerful he, Jiang Tiansha, truly was!
Effortlessly defeating the second-ranked assassin Hundred Transformations and Special Service warriors.
From these two points alone, it''s clear his strength likely reached the level of a Celestial God Rankings expert.
But Ye Huan failed to realize this.
Not only failing to realize it but actively walking into the trap,ing to the abandoned building to "receive judgment."
"I gave you a chance, which you didn''t cherish."
Ye Huan took out a toothpick, put it in his mouth, his voice cold as the abyss.
"Chance? Cherish? Hehe."
Jiang Tiansha let out three exceedingly eerie and sinisterughs.
Then, his wordsced with sarcasm, he asked, "Are you implying I didn''t cherish the chance, so you''re ready to take my life, right?"
"You''re smart."
Ye Huan gave a thumbs-up, his expression earnest.
"Pffft."
Jiang Tiansha''s ten disciples behindughed contemptuously.
"Master, making that call to him was really unnecessary."
"It''s ridiculous for the number one assassin to be so low in intelligence."
"Even someone with slightly better judgment could deduce Master''s approximate power level from him easily defeating Hundred Transformations and those two Special Service warriors, right?"
"And yet, this kid seemspletely oblivious to Master''s terrifying power, haha!"
After a burst of ridicule.
One person, quite "kindly," "reminded," "Kid, let me tell you, our Master is the leader of the top force in the Dark WorldFive Poison Sect Sect Leader Jiang Tiansha! Moreover, he is also the supreme expert on the Celestial God Rankings!"
Instantly, all ten wore expressions full of pride and self-satisfaction.
Even though Jiang Tiansha''s ranking on the Celestial God Rankings was at the bottom, they still prided themselves on having him as their master.
After all, even the bottom of the Celestial God Rankings, is still the Celestial God Rankings!
Though lesserpared to the Twelve Celestials and a God of ughter whose power rivals a Celestial God, he individually could still sweep any other authoritative list in the Dark World!
"..." This chapter was originally posted on *.
A silence filled the scene.
The ten grew immensely puzzled.
Could this kid have gone dumb?
Knowing Jiang Tiansha is a Celestial God Rankings expert, yet remaining unfazed with an indifferent face?
"This kid might be stunned with fright." someone remarked.
This statement immediately garnered much agreement.
The number one assassin is very strong.
Stronger than the ten of thembined.
But the Assassin Rankings is ultimately a second-tier list, iparable to the Celestial God Rankings.
The number one assassin probably realized he had offended a Celestial God expert, and thus was dumbfounded with fear.
"Even if he''s frightened, he cannot escape the judgment of my Five Poison Sect!"
Jiang Tiansha let out this dominantly cold snicker before retrieving a que from his trench coat pocket, tossing it at Ye Huan''s feet.
The que was surrounded by purple poison gas, with a terrifyingly bloody single character written on the front
Execute!
Chapter 377 - 375: Sun God Divine Hall, Sun God Apollo!
Jiang Tiansha stood with his hands behind his back, emanating an overwhelmingly powerful aura, his expression utterly ferocious.
"Ye Huan, for ying my Five Poison Sect disciples at Poison Valley, your sin is unforgivable!"
"Just a mere top assassin, and you dare oppose my Five Poison Sect? Trulyughable to the extreme!"
"My Five Poison Sect... today, we dere judgment upon you!"
"You must die!"
Ye Huan appeared far from flustered and instead slowly bent down to pick up the token on the ground marked with the word ''y''.
He couldn''t help but chuckle lightly, "Judgment on me? Are you sure your Five Poison Sect is qualified?"
"Top assassin, you''re truly out of your mind."
"I, Jiang Tiansha, am not only the Sect Leader of Five Poison Sect but also a supreme powerhouse on the Celestial God Rankings!"
Jiang Tiansha''s face was arrogantly extreme, casting a disdainful nce at Ye Huan, "You mean I''m not qualified to judge you, that my Five Poison Sect... isn''t qualified to judge you!?"
Along with his words, a p of thunder struck!
"Boom!!!"
The rain fell even harder.
Ye Huan didn''t wipe the rain from his face and instead put his hands in his pockets, his lips curling into a peculiar smile.
Once again ying with his words, "Are you sure?"
"The strength of my Five Poison Sect and the depth of its roots are far beyond what a mere ant like you can imagine!"
"Apart from our Sect Leader being a powerhouse on the Celestial God Rankings, ten of us are infamous beings feared throughout the entire Dark World!"
"My Five Poison Sect is a top-tier power within the Dark World!"
"Judging you, granting you death, is more than sufficient!"
Before Jiang Tiansha could respond.
His ten disciples all sneered coldly.
Without Jiang Tiansha''s presence, they wouldn''t dare to show such disrespect to the top assassin.
However.
With Jiang Tiansha, ranked on the Celestial God Rankings, present, what fear is there of a mere top assassin, a mere ant?
"Even the Twelve Divine Halls don''t dare im they can judge me."
"Your Five Poison Sect''s prowess is indeed impressive."
"It''s just uncertain whether your Five Poison Sect is stronger than the Twelve Divine Halls."
Ye Huan''s peculiar smile deepened as he took out his cellphone.
"It''s good that you know how impressive our Five Poison Sect is. In six months, our master''s power will catch up with the God of ughter, and by then, our Five Poison Sect will rename itself as the Five Poison Divine Hall, bing a true Celestial God Level power!"
Jiang Tiansha''s disciple''s arrogance was boundless.
Yet before he finished, he froze, noticing Ye Huan''s previous statement.
This kid... actually said the Twelve Divine Halls don''t dare im to judge him?
A mere top assassin, acting so pretentious?
Who does he think he is?
Does he think he''s the God of ughter,parable to the Twelve Celestial Gods!
Utterly ridiculous!
At that moment, as a wisp of purple poisonous fog dissipated into the air, Jiang Tiansha''s right hand revealed a Crescent Dagger enveloped by a slight ck poisonous aura.
Jiang Tiansha remained silent, but his intentions were clear.
He was going to... execute!
Jiang Tiansha''srge hand suddenly swept through the air.
A magnificent mix of ck and purple poisonous fog burst forth explosively from his muscled body, enveloping the sky and earth within dozens of miles!
Immediately, under the assault of the ck and purple poisonous fog, the vegetation within ten miles began to wither and rot at a visible rate, turning into ck and purple ashes.
The poisonous fog infiltrated the ground, forcing snakes and rats hidden in the soil to scurry out, creating various-sized cracks in the already muddy ground.
As the poisonous fog invaded their bodies, the snakes and rats also dropped dead within seconds!
Three secondster, thend was a scene of utter devastation.
Jiang Tiansha wore an indifferent expression, raising his right hand holding the Crescent Dagger.
The overwhelming poisonous fog that could obscure the sky converged towards the dagger''s de.
The poisonous fog entirely gathered at the de.
Jiang Tiansha''s gaze was exceedingly sinister.
At this moment, he looked like a messenger of Hell holding a dark purple orb of light!
Those familiar with him knew.
This was his... strongest killing move!
Netherworld Poisonous de!
The strongest killing move of a powerhouse on the Celestial God Rankings, how could its power not be immense?
Just seeing the orb of light in his hand sent shivers through Jiang Tiansha''s ten disciples behind him, cold sweat streaming uncontrobly.
As formidable figures of the Dark World, they felt that even a touch of that orb would melt them into a pool of blood!
With each step Jiang Tiansha took, the ground seemed to tremble.
Then, he bent his waist to gather strength.
And suddenly lunged violently at Ye Huan!
He wanted to assert dominance!
Establish authority for the Five Poison Sect! This is smpl frm y Virtul Librry mpir. R֧d th rst n -VLYR.
With all his might, he aimed to chop off the top assassin''s head, making scoundrels retreat in fear and never dare covet the Five Poison Sect again!
The all-out strike of a powerhouse on the Celestial God Rankings made all heaven and earth change color!
Ye Huan, holding his cellphone in his right hand, stood there without any intention to dodge.
As the call connected.
Jiang Tiansha''s de carved a rift of poisonous fog through the night sky, shing swiftly towards his neck.
Ye Huan''s left hand suddenly reached into the void!
At the same time, he shouted harshly at the person on the other end of the phone:
"Apollo, within three minutes, wipe out the Five Poison Sect!"
Apollo?
"What!!!!"
As Jiang Tiansha''s neck was grabbed, he roared these two words with all his might, his pupils shrinking into a dot, his face dramatically changing!
...
"General Ye, you... wait for me, I... I have something... to tell you!"
In the mountains, Qin Guangming was desperately chasing Ye Tiance.
Due to the torrential rain, the road leading deep into the mountains was blocked by mudslides, making it impossible for the Red g car and armored vehicles to enter.
A total of ten thousand armed Special Service Bureau soldiers followed Ye Tiance''s orders, running swiftly along the muddy tire tracks into the mountain ravine.
This really put Qin Guangming in a tough spot.
Having been in the police force for many years, his physical condition was naturally much better than the average person, butpared to the Special Service soldiers, he was like an amateur; he simply couldn''t keep up, and was embarrassingly left trailing at the end of the group, with the distance growingrger.
Where would Ye Tiance find the time to worry about him?
The just-a-moment-ago overwhelming purple poisonous mist made this nation''s guardian general feel rmed and unsettled!
Jiang Tiansha''s strength had already soared to an extremely terrifying level, and he might indeed be the Celestial God level powerhouse from the Dark WorldGod of ughter!
Eighteen years ago, he had just mastered the myriad poison technique!
Now the toxins in his body probably reached a hundred thousand, maybe even a hundred and fifty thousand, or more!
A poison technique condensing a hundred and fifty thousand kinds of toxins, if struck on the human body, could instantly turn someone into a puddle of blood...
No!
Even the ashes wouldn''t remain!
Those grasses and trees turned to ashes, aren''t they just like that!
This extremely sinister move Jiang Tiansha used was directed at Ye Huan!
Ye Tiance''s heart sank to the bottom; in his earlier urgency, he had forgotten, forgotten that Ye Huan had fought in the Dark World for seven years.
Having battled in the Dark World for seven years and not dying showed that Ye Huan''s strength is definitely not to be underestimated.
This also meant that the two colonels sent were simply no match for Ye Huan, how could they manage to knock him out and bring him back to the National Guest Hotel?
If he had gone himself to bring him back, would this have happened?
Ye Tiance deeply med himself.
Ye Huan''s strength is indeed formidable, considered top-notch even among the Special Service Bureau, but Jiang Tiansha''s strength is beyondparison to anyone in the Special Service Bureau!
Jiang Tiansha is God of ughter!
Ye Tiance questioned his ability to stand against Jiang Tiansha''s earlier move, knowing he didn''t stand a chance.
That''s why he was anxious! Extremely anxious!
Even ten kilometers away, he could sense the overwhelming force of that move.
What about Ye Huan, who was at the center of the attack?
Ye Tiance dared not think further, could only take a deep breath, and speed up his pace even more.
"Jiang Tiansha, stop right there!!!!!!!"
Finally reaching the front of the abandoned building, Ye Tiance gathered all his strength, roaring like an enraged lion!
But, the scene before him made him freeze.
Ye Huan was not in crisis...
Instead...
Jiang Tiansha''s neck was gripped by Ye Huan''s right hand, his face full of panic and shock, fear filled his eyes!
Despite this, he was after all a strong figure on the Celestial God Rankings, forcibly calmed his mind, shouted shakily while slicing the Nether de of Poison towards Ye Huan!
Ye Huan remained unfazed.
Tossed the token engraved with the word "y" into the air with his left hand.
Then.
"Swish!"
In the face of God of ughter''s absolute power, any sneak attack is futile!
The Nether de of Poison was swiftly snatched away by Ye Huan''s reaching right hand.
"sh!"
A purple-ck gleam pierced through the air.
Token, shattered!
Head, fallen!
de raised and falls.
"Thud."
Jiang Tiansha''s head fell to the ground.
Even in death, his eyes were wide open like eggs.
Instant kill!
"..."
The entire area in front of the abandoned building fell silent.
The ten disciples of Jiang Tiansha froze, the malicious grins on their faces stuck in ce.
Over ten thousand Special Service Bureau soldiers who rushed over, along with Ye Tiance, were also stunned on the spot.
"Ring ring ring."
A sudden phone ring sounded.
Among the ten disciples, the one who was smirking the most trembled as he took out his phone and answered it.
"Second Senior Brother, help, help!!!"
"Sun God Apollo is leading the Divine Hall to exterminate us!!!"
"Ah!!!!!"
Chapter 378 - 376: Yellow Springs Repentance, Five Poison Sect Annihilated!
After an exceptionally shrill scream, the phone was disconnected.
Thereafter, a piece of news rapidly captured the top spot on the official forum of the Dark World.
"The Sun Templeunched a full assault, annihting the Five Poison Sect within three minutes!"
They did not see this message on the forum.
But they heard the wails of their fellow disciples from the distant western Dark World!
The...the Sun God Apollo, actually led the Sun Temple to attack the Five Poison Sect? My god!
Why!
Just as they mentally asked this question, they got their answer.
Because of Ye Huan''s phone call!
Ye Huan actually...actually could make a direct call to Sun God Apollo!
Commanding Apollo to destroy the Five Poison Sect, and Apollo really went!!!
My god!!!
Who on earth is he!
The critical question asked by ten people was answered by a voiceing from afar, filled with immense urgency.
"Director of Celestial Strategy!"
"Listen to me!"
"Ye...Ye Huan is the God of ughter!!!"
Qin Guangming''s legs were almost breaking apart running, and after reaching Ye Tiance, he spat out these three sentences.
"..."
The scene once again plunged into utter silence, with only the sound of the howling wind and the pouring rain crashing onto the ground.
Amidst the torrential rain, Ye Tiance''s eyes twitched slightly, his entire face bearing a look of disbelief.
In truth, when he saw that Jiang Tiansha''s strongest attack couldn''t cause any damage to Ye Huan, and Ye Huan sent him to the Yellow Springs with just one move, he already spected a lot, yet couldn''t believe it.
For seven years in the Dark World, Ye Huan''s strength wasn''t justparable to the elite forces of the Special Service Bureau!
His power...
Was enough to crush the entire Special Service Bureau!
Because, he is the God of ughter!
A God of ughter from the Dark World!
Jiang Tiansha was not the God of ughter, he died under the death-dealing de of the God of ughter!
Ye Tiance breathed a sigh of relief, also thinking howughable he was.
Sending people to protect this unrecognized son of his?
In his eyes, this must have been extremely ridiculous.
Never mind the Special Service Bureau.
Even if a master from the Dragon Gate took action, they might not be able to harm him!
Simply because!
Because he is the God of ughter with the strength of twelve Celestial Gods!
Was heing over to meet Jiang Tiansha just to court death?
No, he came to im lives, to snatch lives!
Ye Tiance was deeply shocked.
The ten thousand elite agents of the Special Service Bureau were all equally astonished.
Qin Guangming, looking at the headless Jiang Tiansha, was also somewhat shocked.
Apart from them.
The ten disciples left by Jiang Tiansha were terrified to the extreme!
The God of ughter!
Jiang Tiansha had said the God of ughter was in the Celestial Sea!
Also, who else in Huaxia could directly contact one of the twelve Celestial Gods, the Sun God Apollo, and even get Apollo to do his bidding, except for the God of ughter???
The ten copsed to the ground in unison.
A pale yellow, foul-smelling liquid flowed from their crotches.
Their gaze towards Ye Huan was filled with sheer terror!
After a while, their gazes started to blur, bingpletely vacant.
They understood everything.
Too stupid to realize how "terrifying" Jiang Tiansha''s power was, thus falling into their master''s trap?
Realizing Jiang Tiansha possessed Celestial God Rankings power but keeping a straight face because they were scared stiff?
In front of Jiang Tiansha who was on the Celestial God Rankings, was Ye Huan just an insignificant ant?
Laughable, how utterlyughable!
What would it matter even if he realized Jiang Tiansha''s power?
In the eyes of the God of ughter, Jiang Tiansha was nothing more than a tiny ant!
Celestial God Rankings?
The God of ughter was ranking thirteenth but had powerparable to the seventh Celestial God!
And Jiang Tiansha? Ranking forty-eighth, a mere nobody!
Even a hundred Jiang Tianshas wouldn''t be enough for the God of ughter to kill!
Keeping a straight face was because...because the God of ughter only saw Jiang Tiansha as a clown!
The Twelve Divine Halls didn''t dare to judge him, was he pretending? He thought he was the God of ughter with power akin to the twelve Celestial Gods?
No, because he truly was the God of ughter himself!!!
The God of ughter inherently possessed power equal to the Celestial Gods, how could the Twelve Divine Halls possibly judge him? If they really came head to head, it was uncertain who would judge whom!
This isn''t pretension, this is true strength!
Could Jiang Tiansha catch up to the God of ughter after a hundred years?
Ridiculous!
If he provoked the God of ughter, he would be lucky to live another hundred seconds, let alone years!
Moreover, could the Five Poison Sect have the qualification to judge such a supreme powerhouse that even the Twelve Divine Halls couldn''t judge?
Isn''t this ridiculous!
Just one God of ughter, was enough to obliterate the entire Five Poison Sect!
How could he describe how powerful the Five Poison Sect was?
With the backing of the Divine Hall!
The Sun Temple!
A single phone call, and the Sun God himself led the Temple, wiping out the Five Poison Sect in three minutes!
Before they could continue being shocked.
"Swish!!!"
The sound of ten swift winds echoed.
Ten toothpicks whistled out, piercing through the ten people''s foreheads.
The ten corpses copsed to the ground, eyes wide open, showing deep remorse.
Jiang Tiansha, dying just before them, was also filled with immense regret.
When he realized that the God of ughter, whom he always feared and sternly warned Zhong Wuya and the ten disciples never to offend, had already been deeply provoked by him, he regretted so much it made him sick.
Revenge for Poison Valley?
If he had known earlier that the one who wiped out Poison Valley was the God of ughter, Jiang Tiansha not only wouldn''t have thought of revenge but would have peed on Poison Valley''s grave and partied on its tomb!
Why assassinate anyone else? Why tick off the God of ughter? Is this a being that the Five Poison Sect could provoke? Is this someone they could deal with!?
An eye for an eye?
If Jiang Tiansha had known Ye Huan was the God of ughter, how dare he utter such arrogant words!
ying tit-for-tat with the God of ughter?
This wasn''t just seeking death, it was throwing oneself into the crematorium''s incinerator!
Executing Ye Huan, pulling out the Execution Token?
Such an act was akin to turning to ashes and being blown away by the wind!
Taking the God of ughter as a stepping stone? In this world, who could possibly possess such power? Enjoy the story by reading on *.
Jiang Tiansha wished so badly that he could relive his life, then he would definitely treasure the opportunity granted by the God of ughter and safely return Liu Tianyun and Kagami Reina, not a single hair missing.
Unfortunately, for provoking the fury of the God of ughter, he had to pay the due price!
The fury of the God of ughter, how could such a lowly existence like him withstand it!?
If there was any regret, Jiang Tiansha could only repent in the Yellow Springs,menting his fate.
Ye Huan, with a cold face, walked into the abandoned building.
First, he rescued Li Ying, who was tied to the ceiling, and gently ced her on the ground before heading to the corner on the first floor.
There was a heavy filthy smell beneath the building.
It''s not hard to imagine that below was the Zhong Family''s secret base.
Outside the abandoned building, Ye Tiance tried to calm down.
Although he didn''t understand what Ye Huan intended to do, he still ordered some agents to guard around the building while others followed Ye Huan.
Through the hidden passage in the corner of the first floor, they reached the underground base. Upon seeing the scene here, Ye Tiance and the agents simultaneously turned pale.
The left and right sides of the underground base were tightly enclosed by iron bars.
The environment was terrible, with many people imprisoned!
Using the term ''hell on earth'' to describe it was no exaggeration.
Jiang Tiansha and his men were truly over the top!
Scum!
Ye Tiance''s heart was filled with uncontroble anger, yet he also knew it was crucial to rescue these people.
Taking a deep breath, he suppressed his anger and said, "Call 120, rescue them!"
"Yes!"
Meanwhile, Ye Huan arrived at the door of a luxurious suite, starkly contrasting the hellish scene, with a gaze icy to the extreme.
When his gaze bes like this, it forebodes:
Certain individuals marked for death are about to perish!
Chapter 379 - 377: Destination, Zhong Family in the Capital City!
The door swung open.
Ye Huan''s cold gaze immediately met a pair of eyes filled with pitiful helplessness.
Liu Tianyun was only wearing a thin silk nightgown, hugging her knees in the corner of the room, shivering as she cast a fearful nce at the neer.
Beside her were a few harmless little snakes left by Jiang Tiansha for her "entertainment."
The snakes crawled in front of her, over her.
Countless times, she fainted from fright only to wake up in terror again.
Sighing, she bit her lip and buried her head in her knees, trying not to look at the snakes in order to alleviate her fear.
Seeing Ye Huan, her first feeling was joy, followed by anxiousness.
"You...why are you here..."
"No, you must leave immediately! That...that guy named Jiang Tiansha...he''s a monster, he...he can change bullet trajectories with his bare hands!"
"Leave while he''s not here, just go, don''t worry about me, otherwise you''ll die here!"
Ye Huan flicked out a few toothpicks, killing all the little snakes, then said, "Jiang Tiansha is dead."
Dead?
Liu Tianyun''s eyes widened, her mouth agape enough to fit a rock.
The "monster" who could wave his hand to change the trajectory of bullets was actually dead?
"Sorry for being a bitte, Jiang Tiansha didn''t harm you, did he?" Ye Huan sighed, his face showing a hint of apology.
"..."
"No, he...he said he would...kill you first, then..."
After a moment of silence, knowing Jiang Tiansha was dead, Liu Tianyun''s fear dissipated considerably, and tears streamed uncontrobly, as she buried her head in her legs, not wanting Ye Huan to see her in such an embarrassing moment.
At the same time, she felt deeply moved.
She felt moved that Ye Huan came to rescue her.
Ye Huan patted her back as an act offort.
If in the past, any physical contact with Ye Huan would have made Liu Tianyun instantly bristle.
But this time, she didn''t react that way.
Because she felt at ease.
Very at ease.
Her heart was filled with a sense of security.
Ye Huan saw no "agitated" reaction from her and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He felt very puzzled.
Why did Liu Tianyun remind him so much of that "little snot"?
He remembered in the welfare home, that little snot, because of her dark skin and unattractive looks, was often teased and bullied by the ringleaders, always hugging her knees and crying in some unknown corner.
Ye Huan also used to pat her back forfort. Always read at the source*.
And now, Liu Tianyun''s expression and actions felt incredibly familiar to Ye Huan, which is why he subconsciously patted her back.
Half an hourter, Liu Tianyun timidly wiped her eyes and lifted her head.
But still, due to tense emotions for too long, she fainted, and waster carried onto a stretcher along with Kagami Reina by medical staff.
Ye Huan''s gaze returned to its icy demeanor. After leaving the suite, he returned to the front of the building, grabbed Jiang Tiansha''s head, and with a "bang," tossed it into the trunk of a Rolls-Royce Phantom.
He sat in the driver''s seat and started the car.
The Rolls-Royce Phantom roared away, getting onto the National Highway G-01 in less than ten minutes.
The only highway connecting the City of Celestial Sea and the Capital City!
Destination: HuaxiaThe Zhong Family of the Capital City!
...
On the road outside the abandoned building, after more than an hour''s tireless effort, special service agents and the supporting police officers and medical staff finally rescued all the tens of thousands of women and children, sending them off in ambnces.
Due to an insufficient number of ambnces, even emergency support was called in from other provinces and cities.
"General Ye, ording to the investigation, the vast majority of these people are missing persons registered with the police department."
Qin Guangming ran over and saluted Ye Tiance, his expression extremely serious.
"As expected, Jiang Tiansha and his group have resumed their despicable human trafficking business of eighteen years ago." Ye Tiance''s face turned ashen as he sternly said, "Our Special Service Bureau will assist you in the investigation of this matter. This time we must catch all the criminals behind Jiang Tiansha in one fell swoop!"
Just after speaking, he furrowed his brow slightly.
Including himself, nobody among the tens of thousands of special service agents around the abandoned building realized there was such a huge underground base for hiding people.
It was only by following Ye Huan into the building that they got a glimpse.
Could it be... that Ye Huan knew something?
"Where is Ye Huan?" Ye Tiance asked.
"Oh, after his wife, Miss Liu, fainted and was sent to the ambnce, he left," Qin Guangming said, his expression noticeably odd.
Knowing Ye Huan is the God of ughter, he uttered Ye Huan''s name with not the same casualness as before.
"Left? Where did he go?" Ye Tiance frowned.
"He seems to have..." Qin Guangming thought for a moment and replied, "He drove onto the National Highway G-01, heading towards the Capital City."
Heading to the Capital?
Not staying with his unconscious wife, going to the Capital for no reason?
Something isn''t right.
Ye Tiance''s face turned serious, and hemanded in a fierce voice:
"Everyone, return to the Capital City with me at the fastest speed!"
"The destination of that Rolls-Royce Phantom is our destination, pursue it!"
"Fully armed, bullets in the chamber!"
Chapter 380 - 378: Capital City, Zhong Family!
Capital City, Zhong Family Compound.
It''s hard to imagine that deep in the night, the Zhong Family Compound in Capital City would be so lively.
The patriarchs of eight powerful families, whosebined authority and wealth could shake Huaxia, gathered here.
Apart from the Zhong Family Patriarch, Zhong Wuya, the other seven patriarchs were ostensibly there tofort him, saying something like Zhong Buwang''s injuries would surely recover, and his currenta was temporary.
But in reality, they were there to curry favor with the old doctor sent by the Dragon Gate, who was now examining Zhong Buwang''s injuries in a side room of the courtyard.
The emissary sent by the Dragon Gate!
The top families of the Capital City are powerful forces in any part of the world.
These top familiesck neither money nor power.
However, theyck heritage!
Heritage is something no one ever finds excessive.
If they could befriend the Dragon Gate, it would be the greatest heritage for the family, ensuring stability and prosperity for generations!
So, when the seven patriarchs heard that an emissary from the Dragon Gate hade to the Zhong Family Compound, they hurried anxiously to be there.
"Wuya, rest assured, Young Nephew Buwang has a great fate, and with the help of the Dragon Gate emissary, he will definitely recover." Yo+ur* sup@p!or^t$ at M&V*^^LEMP.^*YR^ k%eeps the se+ri!es go^in&g!.%
The seven middle-aged men, around the same age as Zhong Wuya, seriouslyforted him.
"I hope so."
Zhong Wuya sighed, knowing they were not there tofort him, but to curry favor with the Dragon Gate representative. He chose not to say much.
After all, if the Dragon Gate emissary had gone to any other family''spound, he too would have eagerly gone to ingratiate himselfwhich was only natural.
Most importantly, he hoped the Dragon Gate emissary could bring good news.
Upon returning to the Capital City, Zhong Wuya immediately spent heavily to invite Huaxia''s top five national physicians to treat him.
But the result remainedincurable, and it''s highly likely he would never awaken in this lifetime.
So thest hope rested on the emissary sent by the Dragon Gate.
At this moment, the side room''s door opened.
"Click."
An elder with a flowing beard, dressed in a white hanfu, full of celestial grace, walked out.
"Master Huang, may I ask, my... my son''s condition?" Zhong Wuya eagerly stepped forward, hopeful because Zhong Buwang was thest direct descendant of the Zhong family.
The result he got was rather disappointing.
"Buwang''s injuries are too severe to reverse, and he is likely to remain bedridden for life." Huang Panyi stroked his long white beard, speaking with a grave expression, "Who dares to so gravely wound my Dragon Gate disciple?"
Zhong Wuya''s eyes shed with intense hatred. Taking a deep breath, he said, "It was a kid named Ye Huan. Before Buwang was attacked, he had already revealed his master was none other than the renowned Dragon Gate, yet that kid still struck, causing Buwang to be gravely injured!"
"Outrageous! This child disregards our Dragon Gate, what audacity, he seeks death!"
Huang Panyi''s anger erupted, his beard bristling and eyes bulging with fury.
Then, his expression turned grave, "Where is this child who dares to disregard our Dragon Gate, he''s utterly arrogant! I will personally act to eliminate him!"
"This kid really is tired of living, daring to attack our Young Nephew Buwang knowing he''s a Dragon Gate disciple?"
"This isn''t just ignoring the Dragon Gate but also disregarding us, the eight powerful families!"
"If we don''t deal with him, where is our dignity as the top eight families, where is the Dragon Gate''s face?"
The seven patriarchs immediately echoed, each indignant, clearly wanting to use this as a chance to deepen ties with the Dragon Gate.
Zhong Wuya nced at these old foxes, silently cursed in his heart.
Calling him dear nephew on the lips while probably wishing Zhong Buwang dead in their hearts.
A bunch of hypocrites.
"Master Huang, this child has already..."
Before Zhong Wuya could finish saying, "By this time, Ye Huan has already been killed by the expert we sent, his head severed,"
Huang Panyi, with his beard bristling and eyes bulging, flicked his sleeve, interrupting Zhong Wuya, with a heavy face, "Patriarch Zhong, where is this child now."
His meaning was clear: he wished to personally take action to y Ye Huan!
"Master Huang, there''s no need for you to trouble yourself with this matter..."
Zhong Wuya attempted to say what he had previously left unsaid but was interrupted again.
This time, the voice that interrupted him changed his face dramatically, and he swiftly turned his gaze towards the courtyard''s gate.
"Where is he now? Right here."
As the wordsnded, an object drew a perfect arc in the air,nding at the feet of the eight patriarchs and Huang Panyi.
Everyone focused their eyes.
"..."
After a moment, except for Huang Panyi, everyone else took several steps back in rm.
The one most affected was Zhong Wuya!
Zhong Wuya copsed on the ground in fright, his lips trembling, eyes wide open staring at the "object" on the ground.
A head!
A face pale as a ghost, devoid of any color, a human head!
The key thing is, he recognized this head!
Jiang Tiansha!
Ranked forty-eighth on the Dark World''s Celestial God Rankings, the Zhong Family''s secret guardianJiang Tiansha!
No way!
He... wasn''t he supposed to take Ye Huan''s head!
Zhong Wuya raised his head and saw a calm-faced, well-proportioned man walking in from the gate.
He recognized this man too!
"..."
The breath caught in Zhong Wuya''s throat, nearly causing him to faint on the spot.
Ye Huan!
This... what is going on!
Jiang Tiansha not only failed to take Ye Huan''s head, but had his own head taken by Ye Huan?
Zhong Wuya was confused, his eyes widening further.
Meanwhile, with each step Ye Huan took into the courtyard, Zhong Wuya''s heart pounded harder with anxiety.
Despite this, as the patriarch of the Zhong Family, having witnessed many storms, he quickly regained hisposure.
The Dragon Gate emissary was present; the eight powerful families were assembled. Could Ye Huan possibly cause such amotion?
Impossible!
He''s only here to meet his death this time!
Swallowing with difficulty,
Zhong Wuya''s eyes turned cold, pointing at Ye Huan:
"Master Huang, this child is the one who disregards our eight families and the Dragon Gatethe damned one
Ye Huan!"
Chapter 381 - 379: Exterminate Your Nine Clans!
"Wow"
With a sweep of his wide sleeves, Huang Panyi''s face was full of anger, and he fully revealed his imposing aura.
In an instant, the courtyard was filled with swirling yellow dust.
Impressive!
The two words emerged in the hearts of the family patriarchs, who clicked their tongues in admiration.
Truly worthy of being a master from Dragon Gate, such an aura is extraordinary!
"Zhong Buwang, was it you who crippled him?" Huang Panyi''s cold eyes shot straight at Ye Huan. "And you crippled him knowing his identity?"
"Only crippled? I thought I''d killed him outright." Ye Huan had a look of "astonishment."
"Insolence!"
Huang Panyished out in anger again with his sleeves, his voice deepening, "Knowing Zhong Buwang is a disciple of Dragon Gate, yet you dared to cripple him?"
"So what if I crippled him, aren''t you upset? Or do you want to y the game where the elder takes up for the young, then after beating the elder, you call more to help?"
Ye Huan bit on a toothpick, looking unconcerned.
With a slight nce, he saw through Huang Panyi''s power.
This man''s strength was probably only at the level of the outer sect''s higher-ups in Dragon Gate, and in the Dark World, he likely couldn''t even break into the top ten of the Assassin Rankings.
In the Dark World, someone like him wouldn''t even qualify to carry shoes for Huan Ge, so how could Huan Ge possibly regard him highly?
But these words full of contempt filled Huang Panyi with fury.
As a medical envoy of Dragon Gate and the seventh elder of the outer sect, who did not show him great respect?
Even the eight heads of the top families in the Capital City showed him the utmost respect, just shy of kneeling directly!
And Ye Huan, this junior?
He knew Zhong Buwang was a disciple of Dragon Gate, yet dared to beat him to a vegetative state!
He knew he was a member of Dragon Gate, yet dared to speak so disrespectfully!
A mere junior, how could he be so arrogant?
How dare he scorn Dragon Gate, disregarding it entirely?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got.
"Junior, you managed to cripple Buwang, which shows you do have some strength."
"However, Zhong Buwang in our Dragon Gate is merely an outer disciple, and it''s no surprise he lost to you due tock of strength!" C*hap$ter source:. My Vi!rtu.al* L!i!brar@y@ E-mpi@re* (^*)$."Thinking a bit of strength allows you to run rampant everywhere, how utterlyughable! You must know, who you''re provoking now is the seventh elder of Dragon Gate''s outer sectHuang Panyi!" "In my presence, your strength is as ridiculous as an ant!" "Since you, as a junior, are so arrogant, the old man doesn''t mind teaching you a lesson himself: too rigid ends up broken!" Huang Panyi''s eyes were filled with disdain as he stroked his long white beard. His intentions were very clearhe wanted to "take action on behalf of justice" and kill this junior who defied Dragon Gate on the spot! "I don''t have time to waste words with you." "I came today to find Zhong Wuya." "He''s done something wrong, and I need to deal with him. If you don''t want your old bones, and want to interfere, I don''t mind helping you loosen them up." Ye Huan said indifferently. Let alone the seventh elder of the outer sect, even the Grand Elder of Dragon Gate''s inner sect, or the Sect Leader of Dragon Gate himselfhe had no fear. Huang Panyi''s self-proimed "impressive" identity and disy of power appeared no different than a clown''s act in Ye Huan''s eyes. Old bones? Loosen up? Being incessantly insulted by a junior in words almost made Huang Panyi cough up a mouthful of old blood from anger. "Boy, I''ll watch how long you remain arrogant, and I especially want to see how you intend to loosen up my old bones!" Huang Panyi''s nose steamed with white smoke in anger like a raging bull. But his words did reassure Zhong Wuya, who had been shaking beside him. Ye Huan just threatened to deal with him, which scared him half to death, but now he was no longer worried. After all, Huang Panyi was the seventh elder of Dragon Gate''s outer sect, with formidable strength. Protecting him and killing Ye Huan was more than doable, right? Although he didn''t know how Jiang Tiansha died, what he encountered this time was an elder of the Dragon Gate''s outer sect, leaving no escape route for him! Zhong Wuya rejoiced silently. Meanwhile, the might gathering on Huang Panyi''s body grew stronger, and his gaze turned utterly cold. Clearly, he was about to make a move! But at this moment, the heads of the seven top families stepped in front of him. "Master Huang, if you deal with this child yourself, wouldn''t that be degrading?" "This ignorant wretch should be left to us, the eight top families, to deal with." Among the seven, a middle-aged man in the lead spoke up. After a moment of silence, Huang Panyi stroked his beard and nodded, his oppressive aura diminishing significantly. For an esteemed elder of the outer sect of Dragon Gate to personally strike down a junior wouldn''t be something to boast about. It was naturally great that someone was willing to stand up. "Boy, I''ll give you a chance. Kneel and confess your sins to Master Huang." "Defying a Dragon Gate elder is a crime punishable by the execution of your entire family. If you realize your mistake and kneel to confess, I might consider pleading with Master Huang to spare your family from this cmity, only taking your life." The leading middle-aged man spoke dispassionately, his words carrying an irresistible power. With slicked-back hair, he stood with hands behind his back, fully embodying the temperament of someone in a position of authority. Listening to these words, Ye Huan couldn''t help but chuckle and "ask," "What if I don''t do as you say?" "Not do as told?" The leading man sneered. The six by his side also snickered in unison. Then. "As Master Huang said, your strength is indeed remarkable, even stronger than the lowest of Dragon Gate''s outer sect disciples like Zhong Buwang. Achieving such feats at a young age, surely a family of notable strength must have nurtured you." "However, the fact you rely on a rtively powerful family backing is the only reason you dare to act so arrogantly." "But let me tell you, no matter what family youe from, facing the Nan Family of the Capital City''s elite families, you are nothing!" "If you choose to resist stubbornly, my Nan Family won''t hesitate to take action and annihte your family!" The leader, Nan Zhan, the head of the Nan Family, pointed directly at Ye Huan with an extremely arrogant and disdainful look! Arrogant because the Nan Family possessed terrifying strength! Disdain due to contempt for the family behind Ye Huan! With these words, the other six wouldn''t miss the chance to help Huang Panyi eliminate this trouble, thus gaining his favor. Killing some foolish kid and his family while gaining an elder of Dragon Gate''s friendship, even a fool knows what to choose! "My Li Family doesn''t mind taking action to wipe out your entire family, punishing your n!" "My Sheng Family doesn''t mind taking action to wipe out your entire family, punishing your n!" "My Xue Family doesn''t mind taking action to wipe out your entire family, punishing your n!" "My Ma Family doesn''t mind taking action to wipe out your entire family, punishing your n!" "My Yu Family doesn''t mind taking action to wipe out your entire family, punishing your n!" "My Xia Family doesn''t mind taking action to wipe out your entire fam" The head of the Xia Family was interrupted by a loud shout before finishing. This shout made their faces all change drastically! "Dare to boast of exterminating my Ye Family? Such audaciousness!" Chapter 382 - 380: Ye Li Direct Descendant Disciple of Two Families! Ye Tiance walked into the Zhong Family courtyard with a cold expression, hands sped behind his back. Following behind him. Were over a thousand elite special forces! As the Patriarch of one of the top families in the Capital City, they naturally had seen a lot of the world. But... This kind of grand disy, they truly had never seen in all their lives! And to destroy the Ye Family? What an international joke! That would cost your head! "Tiance, I... I am your Uncle Nan, what... what do you think you are doing?" Nan Zhan stammered as he spoke, his lips trembling: "Don''t misunderstand us, we... we didn''t mean that at all!" "Yes, we didn''t mean that at all!" The other six Patriarchs quickly added, fearing Ye Tiance would misunderstand and have them shot on the spot. No one noticed Zhong Wuya, the Zhong Family Patriarch, copse to the ground again, his eyes filled with fear, shock, and disbelief as he looked at Ye Huan! He clearly guessed a lot of things... Ye Tiance''s eyes glimmered with coldness, "Didn''t mean it, then who did you say you would exterminate down to thest n?" "Him, exterminate his n, wipe out his entire family!" Led by Nan Zhan, the seven pointed unwaveringly at Ye Huan. "But do you know..." Ye Tiance let out an eerieugh, "Do you know, Ye Huan is my son, Ye Tiance''s son?" "..." The entire scene fellpletely silent. Everyone was stunned. Ye Huan''s eyes slowly narrowed to a slit. In the Dark World, many had threatened to kill his entire family. But without exception, these people were all killed on the spot, carried their regrets deep into the ground. Although he did not know who his family was, words filled with such provocation and threat undoubtedly stirred up great fury within him. Originally, he was ready to strike, to ughter the Patriarchs of these so-called eight top Capital City families here and now. But with the sudden appearance of Ye Tiance, he decided to hold back and see what unfolded. However, he did not expect Ye Tiance to say such words, words that left even him a bit lost for words. Not only was he surprised, the eight Patriarchs were even more shocked. Not ready to give up, Nan Zhan''s throat undted a few times before he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and hesitantly asked, "Tiance, are you sure, your... your son hasn''t been missing for over twenty years...?" "He is my son who has been missing for many years!" Ye Tiance''s words, seemingly scolding, struck the seven Patriarchs like a thunderbolt from the clear blue sky. They trembled as they turned to face Ye Huan. And then... The most up-to-date version is on *. The sound of "thud" filled the air as all seven dropped to their knees, their faces pale like corpses. Especially Nan Zhan, who was almost stunned on the spot. Kneeling in repentancea way to save their family? To save their family means... to save the Ye Family from disaster! The Ye Family, that stood as the second most prestigious household in the Capital City!!! Save the Ye Family from disaster? Who dares to utter such words will soon face cmity! A "fairly powerful family"? Behind Ye Huan... stands the iparably powerful first family of Huaxiathe Ye Family! In front of the Nan Family, his backing is nothing? Even if one hundred Nan Families banded together, they would just be one hundred ants in the eyes of the Ye Family! If they continued to resist, the Nan Family wouldn''t hesitate to exterminate his entire n? Ye Huan''s grandfather is the Patriarch of the Ye FamilyYe Yaoguo! Ye Huan''s maternal grandfather is the Patriarch of the Li FamilyLi Hentian! Who would dare to touch these two great families? It would be better to scatter one''s ashes first rather than trouble the Ye and Li Families to take action personally! If the descendants of Ye and Li Families are born with silver spoons in their mouths, then Ye Huan was raised with a million tons of gold! In all of Huaxia, besides Ye Qiqing, none other than Ye Huan possesses both Ye and Li family bloodlines! There was only one union between Ye and Li families, that was Ye Tiance and Li Luo! This isn''t bestowing death on him, it''s the eight great families bestowing death on themselves! To not regard the eight top families of the Capital City? Ye Huan is a direct descendant of both the Ye and Li families! Does a figure of this level need to regard eight ants? That would only taint the eyes! If the Ye and Li families desired, they could support thousands of top families in an instant! The current eight families are at most tiny ants before them! Not only were the seven full of regret. Zhong Wuya, the head of the Zhong Family, even more so. No longer able to react. Reflecting on the olive branch extended to Ye Huan earlieroffering a pet to the Zhong Family to serve the Ye Family, he couldn''t help butugh. Without a hundred guts, who dared to make Ye Huan serve them, or be a pet? This was sending the entire Zhong Family to the crematorium! And saying Ye Huan has no background? In all of Huaxia, whose background is tougher than Ye Huan''s!!! "Bang." "Bang." "Bang." The sound of kneeling continued to echo. The eight top families'' Patriarchs, who just ten minutes ago were arrogantly iming they would eradicate Ye Huan''s entire family, were now silently kowtowing to Ye Huan, their faces filled with anguish. They hoped this could grant their families a sliver of opportunity to survive. After all, should the Ye Family take action, their so-called powerful families would be turned to ash in an instant. At this moment, Huang Panyi, standing behind the eight, returned from his shock, his brows slightly furrowed. He too was shocked by Ye Huan''s identity. A direct descendant of the Ye and Li families. Such an identity exceeded him, a Dragon Gate Outer Sect Seventh Elder, by far. Even if a Dragon Gate Inner Sect Elder were present, they probably wouldn''t disrespect him in this scenario. Huang Panyi knew that the opportunity to remove this junior disrespectful to the Dragon Gate and to him waspletely gone. The identity of being a direct descendant of the Ye and Li families truly saved his life! Huang Panyi sighed inwardly, gazing upon the eight kowtowing on the ground. However, these eight people were offending the Ye Family by speaking for him, and it would be inappropriate to stand by idly. "Tiance, could old me ask you a favor?" "After all, their mistake was made without knowing your son''s identity. Perhaps they could apologize to the Ye Family and your son and conduct a profound introspection, and then let the matter rest, what do you think?" "This way, it would be a personal favor old me would owe you." Huang Panyi stroked his long beard. Although his status was not as esteemed as Ye Tiance and his son, the title of Dragon Gate preceded his position as an Outer Sect Seventh Elder. Ye Tiance had originally wanted to crush the eight major families and then inquire Ye Huan''s purpose ining to the Zhong Family courtyard, and whether it was rted to the hell in the abandoned building. But at the moment, he found himself at a conundrum! Although Huang Panyi was merely a Dragon Gate Outer Sect Elder, he still represented the Dragon Gate. To give him face would mean to give face to the Dragon Gate. That face, he probably had to give... "What is your face worth?" A cold voice interrupted Ye Tiance''s thoughts. Also leaving Huang Panyi momentarily stunned. Immediately, his face turned grim, "Ye little friend, do not go too far, old me is a Dragon Gate Outer Sect Seventh Elder, behind old me is the Dragon Gate! You give face to me, equivalent to giving face to the Dragon Gate!" "p!" A crisp sound resonated through the night... Ye Huan looked with icy gaze down at Huang Panyi, who had fallen to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood-stained teeth, his eyes filled with utmost contempt. "What are you worth?" "What is the Dragon Gate worth?" "Go ask your Sect Leader if he is qualified to have me give him this face" Chapter 383 - 381: Capital City Blood Night, Zhong Family Annihilated! "..." The Zhong Family mansion fell silent once more. The eight men stopped their kowtowing, their eyes wide with disbelief. Even if... Even if you are a direct descendant of the Ye and Li Families, you can''t be this arrogant! The one you hit is the Seventh Elder of the Outer Sect of Dragon Gate! By hitting him, aren''t you just hitting the face of Dragon Gate? No, that''s not right... Everyone suddenly realized something. Huang Panyi is an Elder of the Outer Sect of Dragon Gate, a master-level expert! Yet Ye Huan pped him to the point of vomiting blood and copsing? Is this for real? "Boy, aren''t you being a bit too presumptuous!!!" "Hitting my face is the same as hitting the face of Dragon Gate, do you know what the consequences are?" Huang Panyi stood up abruptly, angrily waved his sleeve, raising a cloud of yellow sand, fully revealing his imposing aura. As an Elder of the Outer Sect of Dragon Gate, when had he ever suffered the humiliation of being pped by a junior? His rage had clouded his mind! "Consequences?" Ye Huan raised an eyebrow, "Should I take that as a threat?" "Threat? I want you dead!" "Boy, today I will show you..." "What it means to respect your elders!" Huang Panyi shouted in anger. Then... "p!" Blood sttered in the air. Huang Panyi fell to the ground once more, spitting out a tooth stained with blood, his face swelling like a pig''s head. He was furious! Truly furious! He waved his sleeve once more, his aura surging! "Boy, do you know what kind of existence you are facing?" "The Seventh Elder of the Outer Sect of Dragon Gate!" "Opposing me, you''re on a path to death!" As soon as thest word fell. "p!" With a crisp sound, Huang Panyi''s imposing aura vanished! Hey on the ground, moaning twice before spitting out thest two blood-stained teeth. He was furious! The Seventh Elder of the Outer Sect of Dragon Gate, his rage had reached its peak! He stood up. "p!" He stood up again. "p!" Again... "p!!!" ... After a dozen ps. "Oh, stop... stop hitting, stop... stop hitting, my... my old... old bones are going to be smashed, stop... stop hitting!!!" Huang Panyi wailed to the heavens, rolling on the ground in pain, begging for mercy. Now, where was his former demeanor of a high-ranking figure? His long, white beard was covered in dust and blood, his face bruised and swollen, blood pouring from his nose like water, as wretched as he could possibly look. "I forgot to tell you, those who threaten me usually don''t end well." Ye Huan sneered, pping his hands as if to clean them of filth. Huang Panyi shivered, not daring to talk back or get angry. He was just short of crying out loud. For the first time experiencing the frustration of having no outlet for his anger, he was utterly aggrieved. But there was no alternative. By this point, he had seen many things clearly. That is, the strength of this young man before him was far stronger than his by myriad times! Not just Huang Panyi, the other eight Patriarchs saw it too. Huang Panyi unleashed his aura countless times, trying to kill Ye Huan. But what happened? Not only did he fail to harm Ye Huan in the slightest, he was instead pped to the ground repeatedly by Ye Huan, crying out in pain. This showed... their strengths were not on the same level at all! The eight Patriarchs swallowed hard, cold sweat pouring down their bodies. His strength was not bad at all, stronger than Zhong Buwang, the outer sect''s bottom-tier disciple of Dragon Gate, crippling him as a result? Is this just a little stronger? This is tremendously stronger by a billion times!! Indeed a bit strong? This is just a bit strong?? This is having a billion bits of strength!!! The Seventh Elder of the Outer Sect of Dragon Gate, in his presence, was like a three-year-old child facing a giant a hundred meters tall, powerless to fight back! You must know, Huang Panyi, as the Seventh Elder of the Outer Sect of Dragon Gate, his strength was far beyond that of a bottom-tier disciple like Zhong Buwang! Yet? Huang Panyi was still pped until his own mother wouldn''t recognize him, unable to retaliate!
This is part of a series from My Virtual Library Empire (*).
His strength in front of Huang Panyi was asughably insignificant as an ant?
Who was really the ant here?
Obviously, it was Huang Panyi!
Moreover, with such strength, even if he wasn''t a direct descendant of the Ye and Li Families, no one here could touch him, let alone sentence him to death!
The atmosphere in the courtyard became extremely strange, Huang Panyi''s face flushed, wishing he could find a hole to hide in.
Still wanting to teach Ye Huan about the evils of pride? His old bones were almost dismantled, who was he teaching anyway!
Recalling his earlier boastful self-introduction, Huang Panyi felt even more ashamed.
To boast about his status as the Seventh Elder of the Outer Sect of Dragon Gate for so long, and yet in front of others, he couldn''t even fight back, what a disgrace!
Challenge him?
With his strength, to challenge him, there wasn''t a thing he could do!
Huang Panyi truly felt his old face had lost all dignity, biting his teeth, he scampered out of the Zhong Family mansion.
Ye Huan didn''t stop him, after all, no matter what, he was still an elder of the Outer Sect of Dragon Gate.
Moreover, he hadn''t said anything about exterminating his n or executing nine generations; at most, he was just vain and couldn''t stand a junior disrespecting him, so he nagged, his crimes weren''t punishable by death.
Afterward, Ye Huan turned his gaze toward the eight kneeling Patriarchs on the ground.
The eight Patriarchs trembled all over, utterly despairing.
Huang Panyi was gone, their greatest reliance disappeared. If the Ye Family and Ye Huan wanted to punish them, their families would be wiped out instantly.
"Mr. Ye... Young Master Ye, please..."
"Please spare our lives!!!"
The eight men could only cry and continue kowtowing.
Ye Huan''s eyes and expression remained very indifferent as he took out Jiang Tiansha''s Crescent Dagger, emitting a dark purple glow.
At this moment, a hand was ced on his shoulder, "If you can avoid killing, try not to kill, admitting fault is enough."
Ye Tiance''s words brought great joy to the eight Patriarchs, and they kowtowed even faster, excitedly saying, "We were wrong, we were wrong, please... please, Young Master Ye, spare us, we... we will certainly turn over a new leaf!"
Ye Huan frowned slightly, "Give me a reason."
"The eight first-tier families are currently not suitable for eradication, the reason I cannot tell you, but I will, in the name of the Ye Family, impose a certain level of punishment on their families. I hope... you can give me this face." Ye Tiance said earnestly.
"Your face, is it worth much?"
Ye Huan''s lightly chuckling retort left Ye Tiance speechless, unable to argue.
This was indeed his son, but they hadn''t acknowledged each other yet, and at the same time...
He was the God of ughter!
A peak-level strongman in the Dark World with Celestial God strength!
In this world, who could certainly have the qualification to make him give face?
Even in Huaxia''s Dragon Gate, they probably didn''t have such qualifications!
Ye Tiance no longer spoke, retreating to the side.
Fortunately, Ye Huan''s next move made him breathe a sigh of relief.
"p!"
"p!"
"p!"
"p!"
"p!"
"p!"
"p!"
Except for Zhong Wuya, one p for each person.
The seven Patriarchs'' bodies were sent flying dozens of meters, then crashed into the courtyard walls; after sliding to the ground, they passed out.
Though not fatal, given their physiques, they would need to lie in bed for at least half a year to recover.
The final person.
Ye Huan''s face turned cold as he raised the Crescent Dagger.
Zhong Wuya knew his death was near.
The doom of the Zhong Family... had also arrived.
He looked defeated.
"Who... exactly are you?"
Ye Huan''s answer made his face flood with deep remorse.
"God of ughter!"
Chapter 384 - 382: Yes Clubhouse
The word "God" had just been spoken.
"Swish!"
A purple-ck de''s light shed through the night sky.
The head of the Zhong Family''s Patriarch, Zhong Wuya, fell heavily to the ground, with blood erupting like a volcanic eruption, spraying into the sky and staining the entire night red.
Staining... the entire Zhong Family courtyard!
The head fell, but the look of regret lingered long.
Zhong Wuya had hoped Jiang Tiansha would decapitate Ye Huan to avenge the three descendants of the Zhong family line.
But the result was instead, Jiang Tiansha''s head was cut off.
And Zhong Wuya''s head too, fell heavily to the ground.
All because...
Ye Huan is the God of ughter!
A Celestial God-level existence in the Dark World!
Who can avoid death after provoking him?
Jiang Tiansha repeatedly warned that this God of ughter, who must not be offended, had in fact been provoked by the two of them from start to finish!
The Guardian God of the Zhong Family Jiang Tiansha, ranked forty-eighth on the Celestial God Rankings of the Dark World?
Howughable would he appear in front of the God of ughter?
...
In Capital City, from the two powerful Huaxia families of Li and Ye to the third or even fourth-tier small families, everyone would establish a clubhouse for their own family.
Of course, these clubs do not provide special services like those in bathing establishments; they are simply used for hosting banquets to expand socialworks and make friends.
After all, these clubs are virtually the face and signature of the family. If they offered shady services, they would certainly be ridiculed.
Generally speaking, small families'' clubs, like those from third and fourth-tier families or some weaker second-tier families, would seek to makerger families their members, thereby gaining friendship and protection from these bigger families.
Big families'' clubs, like those of some stronger second-tier families and the eight top-tier families, are not open to just anyone. Membership qualifications are extremely strict, allowing only aristocrats and those with overwhelming power to achieve them.
At the very top are the Ye''s Clubhouse and the Li''s Clubhouse!
There are few who can be members of the Ye and Li clubseven among the heads of the eight top-tier families, few have such qualifications.
Not to mention membership, many pinnacle figures of Capital City''s elite, including heads of the eight families, consider it a life honor to simply be able to enter the Ye and Li clubs for a meal.
At the moment.
Capital City, Ye''s Clubhouse.
Top floor private box.
"You want to use this to repay the favor you owe me?" Ye Huan said calmly as he looked at the ck Ye''s Clubhouse membership card inset with diamonds in his hand.
After saying this, he casually tossed the card back to Ye Tiance.
If others knew that the top-level ck gold membership card of Ye''s Clubhouse was thrown away so casually by him like this.
Those high society elites who couldn''t even get the opportunity to be a member of Ye''s Clubhouse would absolutely go crazy on the spot!
As for the favor Ye Huan mentioned, it naturally referred to sparing the heads of the eight top-tier families previously as a favor to Ye Tiance.
"Just keep it." Ye Tiance, slightly exasperated, pushed the card back across the table to Ye Huan, "It''s just a membership card for the clubhouse, a gift to you, it doesn''t cost the favor I owe."
"Now that''s more like it." Ye Huan, satisfied, pocketed the card.
"The underground human trafficking trade is operated by the Zhong Family and protected by Jiang Tiansha, right?" Ye Tiance picked up the teapot and poured into two small round porcin cups on the mahogany round table, asking the question that weighed on his mind.
"That''s right."
Ye Huan nodded, sipping a bit of his tea.
"I''m curious, can you share how you found out the Zhong Family was engaged in such illegal activities?" Ye Tiance asked again.
"By ident. And here, this contains the controllers at various major Huaxia docks within the Zhong Family''s industrial chain, responsible for smuggling the trafficked women and children overseas."
Ye Huan casually took out a USB sh drive from his pocket and tossed it onto the table.
The USB contained the list of dock controllers with unclear financial transactions with the Bai Family, found and provided as per Ye Huan''s request during his investigation.
Ye Tiance nodded gravely, storing the USB drive away.
Then, shifting gears with a smile, he asked, "Not surprised?"
"A bit surprised, but seeing how much you look like me, not so much anymore." Ye Huan responded.
ck lines formed across Ye Tiance''s forehead.
Who looks like who here?
How did that sound like he became Ye Huan''s son?
But that''s not the main point.
He smiled and asked, "Going home?"
"Going home" naturally meant returning to the Ye Family.
"No." Ye Huan replied firmly, with no hesitation.
Ye Tiance, full of ck lines, said helplessly, "If you return to the Ye Family, your identity..."
"Do you think I care about such an identity?" Ye Huan smiled slightly and countered.
Ye Tiance: "..."
He really had no words to say.
Indeed, Ye Huan is the God of ughter in the Dark World! En*jo$y&ing the sto-r#y? F-ind& m$or@e at *.
A Celestial God-level existence, whose power isparable to the Vice Sect Leader or even the Sect Leader of the Dragon Gate; how could he care about the Ye Family identity?
"When you called earlier, you said ''I''m your dad,'' right?" Ye Huan asked.
Ye Tiance nodded.
"Then what about that Tianshan Grandmother."
"She''s your mom."
"..."
This time it was Ye Huan''s turn to be full of ck lines.
If the Tianshan Grandmother is truly his mother, doesn''t that mean he got his own mother sent to a mental hospital?
That''s quite outrageous!
"How did you know me and confirm that I''m your son?" Ye Huan asked the question that puzzled him.
"When Qiqing proposed to you in public, of course, I had to investigate you. To facilitate this, I reviewed your records, inferred from your experiences, and confirmed from you donating rare R&H negative panda blood to Qiqing."
"The blood type is indeed correct, but how did you view my records..."
"Top secret, right? But your grandfather, Ye Yaoguo, is the Patriarch of the Ye Family, getting ess to your records is just a word from him." Ye Tiance dispelled Ye Huan''s doubt.
Indeed, Ye Yaoguo did possess such power.
However, as if recalling something, Ye Huan''s face turned dark again.
Ye Qiqing is the youngest daughter of Ye Tiance and Li Luo, his sister, in other words.
This...
Being proposed to by his sister is indeed scandalous?
"Qiqing was adopted by us from the orphanage after you were taken away by Jiang Tiansha; she does not know this." Ye Tiance seemed to know what Ye Huan was thinking.
Ye Huan let out a sigh of relief.
No blood rtion, then it''s not too scandalous...
He cleared his throat, turning the conversation back to the human trafficking chain, and said: "One more thing, most of the women and children abducted by the Zhong Family were sold to the Leke Group in Southeast Asia. You handle it."
Ye Tiance''s face grew solemn again, "Okay, I will handle this matter, definitely rescuing all of them."
"Then that''s it, if there''s nothing else, I''ll be leaving." Ye Huan downed the remaining tea in his cup and stood up.
Ye Tiance raised his voice to ask, "Not going home for real?"
Ye Huan casually waved his hand.
"Let''s talk about itter, at least give me some time to ept it."
"And also, control the news, don''t let our rtionship spread wildly, or it will bring me a lot of trouble."
"Okay." Ye Tiance showed a slight smile.
As long as Ye Huan didn''t express clear refusal, he would eventually return to the Ye Family; it was just a matter of time.
At the same time, he understood Ye Huan''s concerns.
The son of Ye Tiance.
A direct descendant with the blood of the two huge families of Ye and Li flowing through his veins!
Once his identity was exposed, countless sycophants would scramble to ingratiate themselves with him, forging alliances.
This indeed was a very annoying prospect.
As Ye Huan stepped out with his left foot from the private box, Ye Tiance reminded him.
"Dragon Gate mighte looking for trouble."
To this, Ye Huan waved a hand and, as he left the private box, he casually tossed out a sentence filled with disdain.
"If they go too far, I don''t mind letting them"
"bleed a little!"
Chapter 385 - 383: The 6 Elders of Dragon Gate
Ye Huan''s words carried a dual meaning.
Firstly, he was telling Ye Tiance to use the Ye Family''s influence to warn or at least advise the Dragon Gate not to blow this matter out of proportion.
Secondly, he was also intimating to Ye Tiance that if the Dragon Gate insisted on bothering Huan, Huan wouldn''t mind giving them a taste of hardship.
Ye Tiance understood the implication behind Ye Huan''s words and let out a helpless chuckle.
But he had no choice.
He didn''t want his son to be a mortal enemy of the Dragon Gate.
Contacting the Dragon Gate was inevitable.
But right now, there was something even more important!
Ye Tiance''s eyes turned cold as he took out his phone.
An hourter, the sky was just beginning to brighten.
News spread across all of Huaxia about seven of the eight great families in the Capital City being heavily injured and hospitalized, and the Patriarch Zhong Wuya of the Zhong Family meeting his demise in the Zhong Family''s courtyard.
The Ye Family announced sanctions against the seven great families,pletely canceling all cooperation with them.
Besides this, two news reports exploded across the inte!
"The government strikes hard, arresting a total of 202 dockside gangsters!"
"The missing persons case sessfully cracked, the second Celestial Sword operation achieved perfect sess with the help of a mysterious man!"
These news reports ignited the fury of inte users, who after reading were filled with righteous indignation and showered curses.
The target of their curses, naturally, was the criminals marked at the bottom of the article the Zhong Family.
The Zhong Familymitted crimes that outraged both man and god, leading to the confiscation of all assets and properties under the family, which were then liquidated and evenlypensated to the victims.
Moreover, every member of the Zhong Family was subjected to investigation to determine if they were involved in the human trafficking industry.
The Zhong Family could never rise again!
In the Capital City, a rumor circted.
The Special Service Bureau''smander, Ye Tiance, and the eldest son of the Li Family''s youngest daughter, Li Luo, who had been missing, had been found, but their name and appearance were not disclosed.
Even so, all the great families warned their juniors to refrain from frivolous behavior in the near future and stay home to avoid provoking this mysterious Crown Prince of Huaxia!
...
In the Capital City, Yao Long Pavilion.
Yao Long Pavilion, the most mysterious andrgest-scaled club in the Capital City.
Atop the structure resembling Leifeng Pagoda, a vivid golden dragon sculpture spiraled intricately. The most up?to?date version is on *.
It was said that among the eight top-tier families, not a single person could obtain membership at Yao Long Pavilion, not even the patriarchs of these families possessed such a privilege.
Only the most outstanding disciples from the Ye and Li Families in the Capital City became members here.
Yet, this most mysterious club in the Capital City had an open first floor for everyone, serving as a public ce.
Besides being a club, it was also the only seven-star hotel in Huaxia.
Though open to all, the average meal here cost in the tens of millions; not something an ordinary family or person could afford.
At that moment, an old man with dust and blood staining his white beard, face bruised and battered, rushed into Yao Long Pavilion, incongruous with his demeanor.
Inside the pavilion, a girl wearing a purple veiled face and a purple embroidered qipao, standing gracefully, was shocked and lightly covered her mouth, "Elder Huang, what... what happened to you?"
Appearing like this in front of the younger generation made Huang Panyi blush with embarrassment, wishing he could find a hole to crawl into.
"Is Elder Wang here?" Huang Panyi asked urgently.
The girl nodded, "Yes, Elder Wang is in the innermost private room on the first floor waiting for you."
Without further words, Huang Panyi, his face red, hurriedly ran towards the inside.
Simultaneously, he was almost driven mad with anger.
The scene of Ye Huan pping him repeatedly lingered in his mind, making him extremely ufortable.
Elder Wang, Wang Kuang of the Dragon Gate''s Outer Sect, the sixth elder and the person Huang Panyi had the closest personal rtionship with within the Outer Sect.
In terms of strength, Elder Wang was naturally a few levels higher than Huang Panyi, who was the seventh elder.
After leaving the Zhong Family courtyard, Huang Panyi immediately called Wang Kuang to have hime over.
"What the hell."
Inside the private room, an old man with an immortal-like demeanor, also with long white beard, couldn''t help but swear upon seeing Huang Panyi''s state, "Old Huang, what on earth happened to you?"
"Don''t even mention it, I was injured by an extremely arrogant junior!"
With indignation, Huang Panyi sat directly opposite Wang Kuang, grabbed a kettle, poured water into a cup, and drank several times in a row.
"A junior? I always told you to practice diligently, but you never listened, spending your days running to town at the foot of the mountain to find women. Now see, a junior has managed to ride on top of you." Wang Kuang said mockingly, stroking his beard.
"If you''re just going to rub salt in the wound, you might as well go back!" Huang Panyi red at Wang Kuang.
Knowing Huang Panyi was genuinely angry, simmering with rage, Wang Kuang stopped joking.
His brows furrowed slightly, and he asked, "Weren''t you at the Zhong Family courtyard to check Zhong Buwang''s wounds? How did you end up getting injured by a junior?"
"s, that kid is very sinister!"
"I don''t know what happened, but in front of him, I couldn''t even fight back!"
"And he turned me into this without me even being able to retaliate!"
Looking aggrieved, Huang Panyi still couldn''t understand how Ye Huan possessed such power.
"Do you know the identity of that kid? For him to p your face is to p the face of our Dragon Gate"
"Not only did he p my face, but that kid outright disrespected our Dragon Gate, saying fanciful things like the Dragon Gate amounts to nothing, even iming that even if the Sect Leader came, he wouldn''t dare show him any face."
Huang Panyi interrupted Wang Kuang firmly and recounted Ye Huan''s words.
Furiously, Wang Kuang pped the porcin cup in his hand onto the table, "Outrageous, that brat dares to be so rampant?"
"If that kid named Ye Huan wasn''t so arrogant, I wouldn''t have tried to take action to put him down."
"The eight great families wanted to stand up for me, but do you know what happened? Ye Tiance suddenly brought over a thousand special agents into the Zhong Family courtyard, with dozens of armored vehicles, iming that kid was his long-lost son, terrifying the patriarchs of those eight top-tier families nearly to death on the spot."
"But since they acted for me, I pleaded with Ye Tiance and him to show some face, show Dragon Gate some face, let those eight patriarchs apologize, and the matter would be considered over."
"Who knew that when Ye Tiance was about to agree, that brat openly proimed that our Dragon Gate amounts to nothing, even saying the Sect Leader wouldn''t necessarily make him show face."
"Then I got angry, tried to capture him, but was pped almost to death in return, resulting in my current appearance."
Grinding his teeth, Huang Panyi recounted the incident in detail, growing angrier and more inmed with each word, fire zing in his eyes.
Wang Kuang''s expression turned wholly serious.
He was shocked by Ye Huan''s identity.
Ye Tiance''s son, which nearly meant he was the Crown Prince of Huaxia.
But he was only briefly shocked.
Thereafter, he flung his sleeve and coldly snorted, "Even if that kid is Ye Tiance''s son, so what? To insult the Dragon Gate and beat an elder, this matter cannot be lightly overlooked, he at least must sincerely apologize to you and to the Dragon Gate!"
Huang Panyi nodded in agreement with Wang Kuang''s words.
If anyone else leveled such insults at the Dragon Gate and him, he certainly would have sought to exact retribution.
But Ye Huan''s status wasn''t something ordinary people could match.
"That Crown Prince persona really saved his life!" Huang Panyi cursed indignantly.
"Being born is a skill too."
"But being born into a good situation only saves his neck."
"Insulting the Dragon Gate can''t be passed over so easily, I''m going with you, and we must make that brat make the most sincere, deepest apology!"
Wang Kuang flicked his sleeve and stood up, stroking his beard.
Huang Panyi frowned, stopping him, "Hold on, it''s not wise to go just like this, that kid is a ''little'' skilled, very sinister."
"Old Huang, did you really get beaten to the point of cowardice by him?"
"So what if he has a bit of skill."
"You alone couldn''t beat him, but can two elders of the Dragon Gate''s Outer Sectbined possibly fear him? Can he make both of us look like pigs'' heads by himself?"
Wang Kuang was dismissive of Huang Panyi''s ''caution.''
Huang Panyi also felt a bit ridiculous.
A junior with ''some'' skill.
If one elder of the Dragon Gate''s Outer Sect couldn''t handle him, could two not manage it?
Laughable!
Huang Panyi took a deep breath, stood up, and said, "I have his info, he''s headed toward Suhang City now."
Wang Kuang walked out of the private room and snorted coldly.
"Let''s go."
"Today, I''m going to show that brat just how formidable the outer elders of the Dragon Gate truly are!"
Chapter 386 - 384: Suzhou and Hangzhou Bully, Liu Chan
Suhang City, First People''s Hospital, deluxe ward.
When the abandoned building was evacuated, as Ye Huan and Liu Tianyun were among thest toe out, the Celestial Sea''s ambnce was already overloaded, and the Celestial Sea Hospital was also operating beyond capacity, unable to take any more patients.
So, Ye Huan entrusted Liu Tianyun and Kagami Reina to Suhang''s ambnce and slipped them a bank card, instructing them to use the deluxe ward.
In the ward, Liu Tianyun had already woken up, still receiving nutrient fluids through her hand.
Kagami Reina had already recovered long ago and was sitting beside her.
As the second-ranked assassin in the Dark World, her physical fitness was naturally not in question, and her rapid recovery was quite normal.
"How''s the recoverying along? No major issues, right?" Ye Huan peeled an apple and handed it to Liu Tianyun.
"No problem."
Liu Tianyun shook her head as she took the apple. Her lips were somewhat pale, yet herplexion already showed a hint of rosiness, clearly in the process of recovering.
"Alright." Ye Huan nodded, "In your current state, just rest for a day or two and you''ll be fully recovered."
"I want to go back to Celestial Sea," Liu Tianyun said.
"What do you want to do back in Celestial Sea? Just stay in this hospital for now. Once you recover in a couple of days, I''ll take you to meet my guardian."
The guardian Ye Huan spoke of was naturally Dog Master.
After introducing Liu Tianyun to Dog Master, he would immediately make the request, which was to persuade Liu Tianyun to voluntarily divorce.
Ye Huan understood the logic that dying would causeplications.
"Have you met Ye Tiance yet?" Liu Tianyun suddenly asked.
"I have. I know everything now, but the one I want to take you to meet is still my master," Ye Huan replied.
Liu Tianyun took a bite of the apple and nodded in agreement.
She also wanted to ask Ye Huan what kind of environment he lived in after being adopted by that "elderly Di Lin."
As she nibbled on the apple, her delicate eyebrows asionally furrowed.
Actually, she still felt a bit unwell physically.
After waking up from heratose state, she constantly felt a sense of blockage in her heart, a feeling of unease.
This feeling was different from the threat and fear that Jiang Tiansha brought. It was simply anxiety, but it seemed to foretell something bad was about to happen.
She racked her brains but couldn''t figure out why she felt this unease, so she didn''t inform Ye Huan.
At that moment. Enjoy the story by reading on *.
"Knock, knock, knock."
Three knocks sounded on the door.
Ye Huan thought it might be a nurse or doctoring to check on the situation, so he stood up to open the door.
But the visitor was neither a nurse nor a doctor...
Instead, it was a young man with a handsome face and dressed in a suit, carrying arge stic bag and resembling a wealthy yboy.
"Tianyun beauty, I brought you some nourishing bird''s nest..."
Liu Chan smiled courteously.
Seeing an unfamiliar man open the door instead of the exotic beauty he expected, his face immediately darkened.
The exotic beauty, of course, referred to the Japanese Kagami Reina.
"Who are you?"
They both spoke in unison.
"I am..."
"This young master is Tianyun beauty''s boyfriend."
Before Ye Huan could finish, Liu Chan abruptly cut him off.
His attitude was quite bad.
Being recognized as Suhang''s most handsome, his looks far surpassed those of popr young stars, something he always prided himself on.
But what now?
Today, he''s faced with a pretty boy more handsome than himself!
Features well-defined and rugged, a stern Sword Qi between his eyebrows, eyes as deep as the cosmos, and skin of a healthy wheat color.
Eyes sharp as cold stars, eyebrows curved like swords.
If Liu Chan represented the androgynous beauty, or rather, the androgynous handsomeness...
Then Ye Huan was the type whose masculinity had a greater lethal appeal to womenthe real man.
If Ye Huan were merely more handsome, Liu Chan''s face wouldn''t have fallen so abruptly, leaving him so displeased.
The real reason for his intense annoyance was Ye Huan''s presence in this ward!
To know, the two beauties in the ward, one pure as a Fairy, the other valiant as a hero, already designated prey by Liu Chan!
How dare this person be alone with Liu Chan''s chosen prey in a single room?
In Suhang, who dared to snatch women from the Liu family''s eldest young master?
The Liu family, the first family of Suhang.
As Liu family''s only son, Liu Chan naturally grew up indulged, now a notorious figure.
Nicknamed: Suhang''s Living King of Hell!
During high school, he impregnated a female ssmate.
The ssmate loved him dearly, insisting on having the child even without marriage.
Liu Chan was just ying, didn''t want the hassle, ordered her to self-fund an abortion twice unsessfully. In anger, he pushed her from the fifth floor in front of the whole school, resulting in a double fatality.
The Liu family, dominant and wealthy, spent millions to suppress the incident.
But Liu Chan didn''t change; emboldened by the family''s might and fearlessness, he grew more arrogant.
Raced cars on the streets, killing an olddy; beat a delivery man and a fruit vendor in a market; mistakenly visited a maternity center for a men''s health issue,ughed at, embarrassing himself, in rage, kicked a pregnant woman to miscarriage and death...
And so on, countless evil deeds.
Toward beautiful women, Liu Chan had a particr obsession.
It wasn''t umon for him to brazenly abduct women; even if a woman was apanied by a boyfriend, he''d have his men beat up the boyfriend and forcibly take the woman.
If a woman dared resist, without exception, after being overtaken by him, she would disappear silently from the world.
Even among other prominent families, some offspring included quite a few beauties.
Toward these socially significant beauties, he wouldn''t be so crude but would take a "slow and thorough" approach.
Initially gentle, using money, power, and his handsome face to win her heart, once conquered and bored or if a pregnancy urred, he''d leave without a trace.
The beauties, daughters of respectable families, would typically fall head over heels, devastated after realizing they''d been used, some, with child, leapt into the sea, resulting in multiple deaths.
The families were furious.
But powerless.
In Suhang, the Liu family''s dominance could crush these families, leaving them unable to retaliate.
From prominent families tomoners.
The prey targeted by Liu Chan met no good end.
Last night, during a routine checkup for male issues at the hospital, after finishing, he saw doctors and nurses wheeling two stretchers in.
Two great beauties!
Beauty he had never "experienced" before!
One could be considered an earthly deigned Fairy.
The other, though not as extraordinary, exuded an exotic charm, a ''Quasi-Fairy'' full of heroic spirit.
Thus, Liu Tianyun and Kagami Reina became his prey, prey he must devour...
No trace of bone left behind!
To have beauties of such caliber fall for him, then cruelly discard them leading to their suicides...
Just the thought thrilled him, resolved to conquer both women.
Afterward, he followed them into the ward to get acquainted.
For half an hour he tried, neither woman paid him any mind, yet he didn''t get upset, left to buy nourishing goods downstairs for a return gift of courtesy.
Who knew a more handsome pretty boy arrived first at the ward, alone with his prey!
To Liu Chan, this pretty boy''s behavior was an offense, a severe insult to the Liu family''s eldest son''s dignity!
Those who offended Liu family''s eldest, at worst lose their heads, at best live worse than death!
Liu Chan''s expression turned icy.
In his eyes, Ye Huan was already a corpse, decapitated!
But what he didn''t know...
Is that the moment he set his sights on Liu Tianyun and Kagami Reina and attempted to tread on Ye Huan, his fate was sealed...
Not even the entire Liu family could save him.
Chapter 387 - 385: Guarantee Letter
"Are you her boyfriend?" Ye Huan couldn''t help butugh, ying with his words, "Then do you know who I am?"
"Just spit it out if you''ve got something to say." Liu Chan was very impatient.
"I''m Liu Tianyun''s husband."
Ye Huan''s answer truly took Liu Chan by surprise.
Then he stepped back, moved to the side, and pointed to the hospital''s cold corridor with a sullen face, "I''ll give you three seconds to get out of the hospital!"
"Buddy, you must be mistaken. This is my wife''s ward, and you''re telling me to leave?" Ye Huan pointed to himself, looking astonished.
"What, are you going to defy my order?"
Liu Chan''s face grew increasingly unfriendly.
"If you''re looking for trouble, I''d advise you to quickly move aside, or you might find that you won''t even have a chance to leaveter." Ye Huan waved him off impatiently, not in the mood to argue further.
Liu Chan: "..."
The look he gave Ye Huan turnedpletely cold.
In Suhang, this was the first time someone dared to talk to him like that.
He was very unhappy.
Unhappy to the extreme!
Young Master Liu was very unhappy, and the consequences were serious!
"Advise me to move aside quickly?"
"Kid, I advise you to think again, or one day you might find yourself mysteriously dead on the street when it''s dark and the road is slippery."
Liu Chanughed coldly, his words full of threats.
"Leave." Ye Huan calmly spat out one word.
"You..." Liu Chan pointed at him furiously, gritting his teeth.
Then he leaned his head into the room and said, "Tianyun, beauty, weigh in on this, tell us who should leave! I''ll tell you directly, I''m Liu Chan of the Liu Family. If you''re with me, you''ll enjoy a lifetime of wealth and prosperity!"
"Leave!"
From inside the ward came an extremely icy voice.
Liu Chan was truly embarrassed this time; he simply couldn''t understand why even after announcing his status as the eldest son of the Liu family, this woman still wouldn''t submit.
It seemed this woman was ungrateful and quite dim-witted!
To deal with this kind of woman, why bother with those PUA tricks?
Just use force, and take her out afterward!
In these matters, Liu Chan was quite skilled, and a deep, venomous glint shed in his eyes.
"Young Master Liu, time to leave?" Ye Huan leaned against the door, making a yful gesture of "please."
"You''ll regret this."
Liu Chan hissed these threatening words and furiously flung the bird''s nest he was holding into the ward before leaving angrily.
The bird''s nest spilled all over the floor, leaving it filthy with grease and grime.
On the hospital bed, Liu Tianyun''s face was ashen, clearly very angry.
Kagami Reina got up, intending to fetch a dustpan and broom from the corner to clean up, but Ye Huan stopped her.
She was somewhat puzzled.
"Don''t worry, someone wille to clean it upter."
Ye Huan''s lips curled into a meaningful smile, "That person will obediently clean up here or rather, make it spotless"
...
In Suhang City, the lobby of the First People''s Hospital. Sample from My Virtual Library Empireread more on M&VLEMPY&R.
Liu Chan slipped a few bills to the nurse and sessfully obtained the medical records of Liu Tianyun and Kagami Reina.
"I was wondering why those three damn people were so clueless, turns out they''re outsiders."
After reading the medical records, Liu Chan couldn''t help but curse twice, finding it reasonable.
In Suhang, who doesn''t know the Liu family, and who isn''t afraid of the Liu family?
Those who aren''t afraid of the Liu family have already gone off to report in the underworld!
From a young age, who hasn''t treated him with utmost respect, and who hasn''t obediently followed him like a pet?
Today? Hey, two outsiders told him to get lost in a row!
No, they might not be bumpkins.
After all, the aura those three had didn''t look like that of country bumpkins; they could very well be powerful upstarts with a background.
But, so what?
Suhang is Liu family''s territory!
In the face of the powerful Liu family, other than the young masters from families above the third tier in the Capital City, which new powerhouse wouldn''t bow down to the Liu family!?
Thinking of this, a strong sense of pride appeared on Liu Chan''s face, then he took out his phone.
"Hey, Hei Zi, bring fifty elite fighters to the first courtyard, there''s a guy who''s living recklessly and he needs to be sent to see King Yama!"
"Kid, me yourself for being blind. So what if you''re a new powerhouse? Unless you''re a young master from the Capital City, if you offend me, Young Master Liu, no one can save you!"
After hanging up the phone, Liu Chan let out a cold, sinisterugh.
In his mind, he could already picture Ye Huan with his head battered and bleeding, kneeling on the ground, begging for mercy, obediently offering up his own wife, and the scene with that exotic beauty.
Crush him underfoot!
Let him understand what true identity means!
Haha, satisfying!
Liu Chan''s mouth twisted into an extremely smug and lecherous smile, his tongue circled around his lips with a "slurp".
At this moment, a taxi from the Capital City stopped at the hospital entrance.
An old man with an ethereal, immortal-like demeanor, along with another old man whose white beard was stained with blood and in a very disheveled state, walked into the hospital and headed straight for the elevator to the high-level ward area.
"Old Wang, the kid is in the high-level ward area," Huang Panyi said.
"Hm, when we talkter, try to control your tone and don''t be too aggressive."
"We''ll reason with him and speak from the heart, using words to let him know what a terrifying existence Dragon Gate truly is, and how immense our power is, to make him understand that Dragon Gate is not something he can afford to offend, and hopefully, he will yield!"
"Unless absolutely necessary, do not sh with him, as he is the son of Ye Tiance and Li Luo."
Wang Kuang spoke calmly, stroking his snow-white beard, with the air of someone superior.
Huang Panyi was somewhat unwilling, but still nodded.
With such a background and status, it''s truly formidable!
The identity of Huaxia''s Crown Prince really saved Ye Huan''s life!
They came to the door of ward 708 and knocked.
Ye Huan opened the door, and couldn''t help but have a few ck lines appear on his forehead again.
Having just sent off one annoying thing, not even five minutester, heree two more.
"You two, what''s up?" Ye Huan leanedzily against the doorframe.
His demeanor made Huang Panyi so angry he was blowing his beard and ring.
"Kid, you better show some respect..."
Wang Kuang shot a nce at Huang Panyi, silencing him, making him swallow the words he hadn''t finished saying.
"May I ask if you are Young Friend Ye?" Wang Kuang stroked his beard while eyeing Ye Huan.
He was smiling on the surface, but felt quite disdainful within.
He scrutinized Ye Huan for some time but couldn''t see any aura of strength exuding from him.
Earlier, Huang Panyi was beaten by Ye Huan without any power to retaliate, likely not because Ye Huan was enormously powerful, but because he was terrified by the forces andbat power Ye Tiance brought.
"It''s me." Ye Huan stepped out of the ward, closed the door, andzily leaned against the wall again.
Wang Kuang slightly flicked his sleeve, revealing a bit of his "strongman" aura.
Then he asked casually, "Young Friend Ye, I heard you''ve spoken disrespectfully of my Dragon Gate many times, is that true?"
"Disrespect your Dragon Gate?" Ye Huan frowned slightly, "When did I ever disrespect your Dragon Gate?"
"I heard you refused to give face to my Dragon Gate, and even imed that even if our Sect Leader came, he might not be able to make you give face?" Wang Kuang''s tone sank low as he questioned further.
"What''s wrong with speaking the truth?" Ye Huan asked carelessly in return.
"..."
Wang Kuang''s gaze turned cold.
He finally witnessed how arrogant this young man in front of him truly was.
If it weren''t for Ye Huan''s identity as the Huaxia''s Crown Prince, Wang Kuang would have already pped him to oblivion.
"And do you admit assaulting my Dragon Gate''s Outer Sect Seventh Elder, Huang Panyi, at the Zhong Family''s courtyard?" Wang Kuang asked sternly.
"He was idle with nothing to do. I was just looking to trouble the Zhong Family, and he insisted on sticking his foot in. I couldn''t help it but hit him until he stayed down~"
Ye Huan''s nonchnt tone utterly agitated Huang Panyi to the extreme.
He was about to speak up for a verbal tussle with Ye Huan, but Wang Kuang restrained him with a look once again.
Wang Kuang let out a cold snort to show his displeasure and then stroked his beard, saying ndly:
"Young Friend Ye, your actions were excessive, beating the elder of our Dragon Gate''s outer sect."
"You should know, he came down the mountain to the Zhong Family''s courtyard to treat Zhong Buwang''s injuries as a medical envoy from Dragon Gate, yet you pped him! You''re not just hitting Huang Panyi, but pping the face of our entire Dragon Gate!"
"I won''t say more. As long as you sincerely bow and apologize to Elder Huang, and write a ten-thousand-word apology letter promising to refrain from offending our Dragon Gate verbally in the future, and post it throughout the Capital City''s streets and alleys for seven days, we will drop the matter!"
When he said this, it was entirely in an ordering tone, leaving no room for negotiation.
As arrogant as one could be.
Yet before Ye Huan could express his attitude.
A group wielding weapons emerged menacingly from the elevator, heading towards the ward.
Wherever they passed, patients and nurses alike were pushed aside.
Extremely arrogant!
Utterly ruthless!
Very overbearing and unreasonable!
Chapter 388 - 386: Master!
Leading the group was Liu Chan, followed by a tall, shirtless man with a fierce Cyan Dragon tattooed on his chest, and about fiftyckeys trailing behind him.
Each of those fiftyckeys looked like formidable fighters.
Arriving at the door of room 708, Liu Chan first nced at Wang Kuang and Huang Pan-yi with a cold voice asking, "You two, also here to trouble this kid?"
"That''s right, and you are?" Wang Kuang stroked his beard, his expression indifferent.
Unexpectedly, Liu Chan directly swung his palm.
"Smack!"
A crisp p echoed through the hospital corridor.
"Old man, you''ve lived most of your life, and no one taught you the rule of firste, first served? This kid was my target first, so if anyone''s going to trouble him, it should be me, Young Master Liu, understand?" Liu Chan spat on the ground, looking very arrogant.
Outwardly, he appeared confident, but inside he was inhaling sharply from the shock.
What was going on? This p felt like hitting a metal block; his hand hurt badly!
Exiting the elevator, Liu Chan saw Wang Kuang and Huang Pan-yi with unfriendly faces talking to Ye Huan and deduced they were also after Ye Huan, feeling displeased.
He had long been wanting to cause problems for Ye Huan.
As the eldest son of the Liu family, how could he allow someone to cut in line?
And yet... this old man took a p and still wouldn''t move?
Not hurt enough?
Going against the Liu family, he was seeking death!
Young Master Liu was furious, and the consequences were severe!
"Old man, I told you to get lost, didn''t you hear?" Liu Chan cursed, raising his hand again.
"Smack!"
Another pnded on Wang Kuang''s face.
This time, he used a lot of force, almost jumping from the pain.
Was this old man made of steel?
Liu Chan was greatly puzzled and raised his hand again, swinging with full force.
This time, his target was Huang Pan-yi!
"Smack!"
"Hiss!"
As soon as the p sound fell, Liu Chan inhaled sharply, clutching his reddened right hand as he jumped several steps back.
His eyes widened in disbelief.
What was happening, did these old men buy some kind of reflective armor???
Did it evene with damage rebound???
Standing on the side, Ye Huan nearlyughed out loud witnessing this dog-eat-dog scene.
Liu Chan wasn''t hitting nobodies; he was hitting the sixth and seventh elders of the Dragon Gate Outer Sect!
His actions weren''t just a path to his own demise; it also paved a road to the Yellow Springs for his so-called hegemonic Liu family of Su Hang!
Interesting, indeed.
Ye Huan revealed a look of interest, stepping back to make space for them to "resolve their dispute."
Even after a moment of shock, Liu Chan remained defiant and again raised his palm in midair.
This time, Wang Kuang and Huang Pan-yi simultaneously snapped back to reality!
"Kid, you''re really tired of living!!!" Wang Kuang roared in rage, grabbing Liu Chan''s wrist with his left hand, while his right hand gathered strength...
And forcefully swung!
"Smack!!!"
This p reverberated almost throughout the entire hospital!
Liu Chan''s right cheek instantly swelled like a pig''s head, with half his head embedded into the left wall.
The severity of this p''s force was evident!
Heizi and theckeys around saw this and instantly came to their senses, springing into action.
"Old man, you want to die!!!" Heizi roared with rage, pulling arge machete from his waist and swinging it fiercely at Wang Kuang and Huang Pan-yi!
All hisckeys followed suit, furiously drawing machetes!
Wang Kuang and Huang Pan-yi were utterly enraged!
As elders of the Dragon Gate Outer Sect, their status was exceedingly high!
Even the prodigal sons from top families in the Capital City behaved like tame pets in their presence!
But today, they were pped several times by a so-called young master of a Su Hang family!
And this young master''s underlings even tried to sh them!
The two were seething with anger, not holding back anymore!
With faces full of rage, they waved their sleeves, unleashing their master-level might!
Murderous intent shrouded the entire hospital!
"You want to act all high and mighty, dare to harm Young Master Liu, I''ll cut you to pieces!!!" Heizi roared loudly.
However.
How could mere thugs even touch two elders of the Dragon Gate, let alone cut them?
Earlier, when Liu suddenly pped, it happened too suddenly for them to react, and waspletely unexpected.
"Whoosh"
Gales began to rise in the corridors of the high-level ward area.
One after another, screams of agony filled the entire hospital, resounding endlessly!
The ttering of machetes dropping to the ground echoed continuously!
Blood flowed like a river!
The corridor was filled with the stench of blood! This copyes from content on *.
In less than three minutes, all themotion dwindled to just the pig-like wails of the thugs.
Wang Kuang and Huang Pan-yi blew their beards, their anger even making their nostrils emit white smoke, fiercely flicking their sleeves in an angry huff.
Usually, they couldn''t be bothered to deal with street riff-raff.
But this time, they were genuinely furious!
Young Master Liu was really pissed, and the consequences were severe indeed!
As it stood, he and his summoned gang leader Heizi, along with Heizi''s fifty "elite warriors,"y on the ground like dead bodies; the consequences were truly severe!
Dead were dead, injured were injured.
Some thugsy with closed eyes, not making a sound.
Others clutched their painfully wounded abdomens or other parts, screaming miserably.
Liu Chan, on the other hand, held his blood-soaked head, his screams as pitiful as they were intense.
However, Wang Kuang and the others had no intention of letting him go!
Wang Kuang pinched Liu Chan''s neck, lifting him like a chick, questioning him as spit sprayed onto his face, "Kid, how dare you disrespect us two?"
Liu Chan''s feet were off the ground, feeling on the verge of suffocation.
Yet, even so, his fingers viciously gestured in the air, mouthing a few silent words.
Though no sound came out, it wasn''t hard to see he was saying, "Just you wait, I''ll get someone to kill you two old bastards!"
"Heh!"
Wang Kuang and Huang Pan-yi both scoffed with extreme disdain.
As two elders of Dragon Gate, could they possibly fear a junior''s threats?
With a strong fling, Wang Kuang threw Liu Chan to the ground, producing a loud "thud."
Liu Chan grimaced with pain, furious beyond measure.
Greedily inhaling fresh air, he retrieved his phone and dialed a contactbeled "Dad."
"Dad, I got beaten up,e fast and save me, I''m in the hospital!"
Chapter 389 - 387: Catastrophe!
Wang Kuang and Huang Pan Yi sneered coldly.
The father of the Liu family''s eldest son, who else could he be but the Patriarch of the Liu family?
They had heard more or less about the Liu family of Suhang.
The strongest family in Suhang, it''s not an exaggeration to say they can cover the sky with one hand in Suhang City.
But, that''s only in Suhang.
In the Capital City, the Liu family is about equivalent to a third-rate family.
One must know, even first-rate families in the Capital City nod and bow in respect to Wang Kuang and Huang Pan Yi, these two Outer Sect Elders of the Dragon Gate.
The Liu family is nothing, they can be erased with a flick of a finger!
As for Liu Chan''s venomous and cold gaze, the two chose to ignore it.
When his father arrives, it won''t be toote to deal with them together.
For now, there''s another matter to attend to.
"Little friend Ye, it''s been some time, what is your attitude towards my proposal?" Wang Kuang turned his head, looking at Ye Huan with calm eyes.
"Not interested."
Ye Huan''s response was quite straightforward.
Wang Kuang''s face darkened, "Not interested? Little friend Ye, our Dragon Gate is not something you can insult just like that, the matter of insulting our Dragon Gate can''t be brushed aside so quickly!"
Ye Huan spread his hands, "I did not insult your Dragon Gate, I''m merely stating facts, even if your Sect Leader came, asking me to give them face, it wouldn''t work, understand?"
Wang Kuang: "..."
Huang Pan Yi: "..."
Both of their expressions turned very unpleasant.
"Little friend Ye, I advise you not to be stubborn!"
"Offending our Dragon Gate brings you no benefit at all!"
"I can see with a nce that your aura is stronger than ordinary people''s but much weaker than Elder Huang''s and mine! Opposing the two of us is a dead end for you!"
Wang Kuang waved hisrge sleeve and pointed at the thugs howling in pain on the ground.
The meaning was very clear: be careful not to end up like them. Love this story? Show support at *.
"Can I understand this as a threat?" Ye Huan chuckled lightly.
"You can indeed understand it that way."
Wang Kuang crossed his arms, his face extremely arrogant.
He certainly wouldn''t really make Ye Huan end up in the same shape as the thugs, after all, Ye Huan carried the status of the Crown Prince of Huaxia.
It was merely a simple threat, hoping to get Ye Huan to back down, write a guarantee letter, and have it posted all over the streets to demonstrate the power of the Dragon Gate.
If the Crown Prince of Huaxia personally apologized to the Dragon Gate and wrote a guarantee letter, having the whole Capital City know would undoubtedly boost the prestige and style of the Dragon Gate to a great extent.
But he miscalcted.
Ye Huan is not just the Crown Prince of Huaxia.
He is also the God of ughter, one of the thirteen Celestial Gods of the Dark World, feared by heads of state around the world!
In this world, how many can make the God of ughter back down?
Unclear, but it''s evident that Wang Kuang and Huang Pan Yi here are not among them.
"Do you know what the consequences of threatening me might be?" Ye Huan said with a yful expression.
Upon hearing this, Huang Pan Yi couldn''t help but cover his face, swollen like a pig''s head, in slight pain.
Seeing this, Wang Kuang spoke again, his voice had be incredibly low.
"Little friend Ye, I advise you to turn back while you still can, agree to my demands now, and you can avoid unnecessary suffering."
"The strength of Elder Huang and me is far beyond what you can imagine, understand."
"Elder Huang was probably just overwhelmed by others at that time, that''s why he couldn''t fight back before you, don''t really think you''re stronger than him."
Wang Kuang''s words were full of disdain for Ye Huan''s strength.
Beside him, Huang Pan Yi suddenly had a realization, his expression became very intriguing.
Indeed.
Previously, with over a thousand guns aimed at him, and armed helicopters and fighter jets circling above, it was inevitable to experience some panic.
Perhaps because of this, he didn''t dare fight back against this junior''s p!
Exactly, that''s it!
Huang Pan Yi nodded, agreeing with the thought in his heart, he still couldn''t believe from the bottom of his heart that he could lose to a junior, only that something went wrong somewhere.
Hence, he immediately sneered: "Boy, my strength is far beyond what a lowly person like you can imagine, if you don''t want to suffer, it''s best to follow Elder Wang''s request, write the guarantee letter, and..."
"p!!!"
A loud p interrupted Huang Pan Yi.
Then...
"Bang!!!"
Half of Huang Pan Yi''s head was embedded in the wall.
"Boy, you''re courting death!" Seeing this, Wang Kuang shouted angrily as his body''s power erupted, sending a fierce palm strike towards Ye Huan!
But...
"p!!!"
The sound of a p resounded, and Wang Kuang''s head was also embedded in the wall.
"..."
The corridor instantly fell silent.
Even Liu Chan on the ground widened his eyes in shock.
Although he was arrogant and domineering, he wasn''t foolish!
Earlier, Wang Kuang and Huang Pan Yi seemed like War Gods, effortlessly sweeping away the thugs, he had seen it all!
In less than three minutes, he knocked down all fifty thugs and their leader!
With such strength, he knew that only by inviting the family steward, who was also his father''s personal bodyguard, could he subdue these two people!
And now? These two old men, who were like War Gods, had no power to fight back in front of this young man, all ending up like him, with faces swollen like pigs, heads buried into the walls!
It''s absurd!
Especially the nonchnt expression on Ye Huan''s face, which shocked him even more!
At this moment, Huang Panyi and Wang Kuang pulled their heads out from the wall.
They were furious!
Gathering all their strength, they attacked together!
With the two Outer Sect elders of Dragon Gate attacking together, their might made Liu Chan shiver uncontrobly!
However...
"Snap!!!"
"Snap!!!"
Ye Huan''s two light swipes of the hand directly stripped them of their might, sending them flying and coughing up blood.
"..."
Lying on the ground, bleeding profusely while clutching their faces, they stared at Ye Huan with eyes wide as brass bells, all contempt gone from their gaze.
They realized many things...
Many, many things!
The most important thing, was that this young man named Ye Huan, truly had formidable strength!
Huang Panyi''sck of resistance wasn''t due to being threatened by weapons, but because...
Because Ye Huan''s strength was truly that great!
He wasn''t an ant; he was a formidable force, young yet much stronger than them, the Outer Sect elders!
Suffering physical pain?
Not only did they not inflict physical pain upon him, he had instead sent them flying twice, giving them a ruthless beating!
Wang Kuang understood as well, realizing it wasn''t because he could see through Ye Huan as an ordinary person, but because...
Ye Huan''s strength far surpassed his own, which was why he couldn''t gauge Ye Huan''s depth!
To reckon with him?
What good would it do to reckon with him, when the two of them couldn''t do anything about him at all!
Wang Kuang recalled the bold boasts he made in Suhang earlier, and his old face, swollen like a pig head, flushed with embarrassment.
The two Outer Sect elders, indeed, were no match for this youngd, and had indeed been beaten by him into pig heads!
Did theye all the way from the Capital City to make him apologize?
No! They came to hand their faces to him, to be pped!
As the two of them blushed, wishing they could find a hole to crawl into and hide...
"Who dares to hit my son Liu Bei''s son, courting death!"
The elevator door opened, and a great furious roar resounded.
A fat, big-eared man ran out, with a middle-aged man beside him.
Liu Chan saw the neer and was overjoyed.
"Dad, I... I''m here!" Liu Chan, unable to get up due to the pain, had to shout while waving.
The neer was the Patriarch of the Liu family, Liu Bei.
And his steward and personal bodyguardZhao Zilong!
"Son, who... who did this to you, Dad will surely avenge you!!!" Liu Bei was truly both heartbroken and furious, his face''s fat quivering in anger.
"Those... those two old things hit me!"
Grinding his teeth in rage, Liu Chan angrily pointed at Wang Kuang and Huang Panyi, lying on the ground.
Liu Bei was enraged and said, "Zilong, go, kill those damn old things!"
But to everyone''s surprise, Zhao Zilong, upon seeing the two of them, immediately knelt.
Not only did he kneel, but he also crawled over, eximing, "Elder Wang? Elder Huang? What... what happened to you!?"
Indeed, Zhao Zilong had previously been a low-tier disciple of the Outer Sect of Dragon Gate, but after twenty years without advancing in martial arts, he had left Dragon Gate and returned to urban life.
To both Elder Wang Kuang and Elder Huang Panyi, Zhao Zilong was exceedingly respectful!
When their wretched state was seen by a former disciple, Wang Kuang and Huang Panyi felt thoroughly humiliated, yet due to Liu Chan''sment calling them "damn old things," they were so furious they each pped Zhao Zilong, then hurriedly left...
Zhao Zilong, clutching his swollen face, was dumbfounded, utterly clueless about the situation.
"What''s going on, why let them run away?" Liu Bei, supporting Liu Chan with one hand, aimed his angry face at Zhao Zilong.
Zhao Zilong gritted his teeth, giving Liu Chan a nce before pulling Liu Bei aside, solemnly saying, "Patriarch, those two just now... they are the sixth elder and seventh elder of Dragon Gate''s Outer Sect, how dare I act against them, that would be courting death."
Liu Bei felt a tremendous "boom" in his head.
As someone at the top of society, he naturally knew of Dragon Gate and understood what a terrifying existence it was.
The Outer Sect elders were statuses hundreds of times more prestigious than his vaunted personal bodyguard Zhao Zilong!
Damn it.
Liu Bei''s face turned anxiously pale.
If his son Liu Chan offended those two esteemed individuals, the Liu family might face impending doom as a result!
"Dad, what''re you guys doing, why won''t you avenge me!" On the ground, Liu Chan''s indignant shout interrupted Liu Bei''s thoughts.
"You rebellious son dare speak, those two are your Uncle Zhao''s masters, both in background and strength they are far beyond what we can imagine; you offended them, our Liu family will face impending doom."
In his fury, Liu Bei stomped his foot continually, attempting to think of a countermeasure.
Liu Chan''s next sentence jolted him awake.
"If those two old men are so badass, why does this young fellow seem to know their identity, yet still dare to beat them?" Liu Chan,pletely disbelieving Liu Bei''s words, pointed indignantly at Ye Huan.
Chapter 390 - 388 Liu Beis Stratagem
"Tell me everything that happened before!" Liu Bei demanded sternly.
Liu Chan was dissatisfied with Liu Bei for not avenging him, for not killing those two old men.
But under Liu Bei''s serious gaze, he still obediently recounted everything from spotting Liu Tianyun and Kagami Reina, to being told to leave by Ye Huan, then contacting Hei Zi to bring people to the hospital, and all the events that followed.
Liu Bei listened to this, his eyes narrowed slightly as he nced at Ye Huan.
This young man is so youthful, yet he was able to beat down two Dragon Gate Outer Sect elders with no chance for them to retaliate? He does have some skills!
However, opposing Liu Bei''s son could only result in death!
Liu Bei was very angry, and the consequences were serious!
He turned his head and whispered something to Zhao Zilong.
Zhao Zilong''s eyes shed with brilliance as he nodded.
At this moment, Ye Huan''s impatient voice came through.
"Hurry up, can you remove him?"
He was naturally referring to Liu Chan, who was lying in front of room 708.
Liu Bei turned his head back, looking unfriendly, and asked coldly, "Kid, do you know whose territory Su Hang is?"
Ye Huan raised an eyebrow, "It''s Huaxia''s territory."
"No, you''re wrong!" Liu Bei said coldly. "Su Hang might seem like Huaxia''s territory on the surface, but in fact, it belongs to my Liu family! Do you think you''re something specialing from Celestial Sea? Let me tell you, daring to stretch your hand into Su Hang means opposing my Liu family! And there is no good ending for those who oppose us, you''re no exception!"
The expression he had while saying this was as arrogant as it could be!
"What? You''re threatening me too?"
Ye Huan leisurely chewed on a toothpick and couldn''t help but chuckle a few times.
Quite a number of people came today looking for death.
One wasn''t enough, so two came, still not enough, more followed. Visit My Virtual Library Empire (*) for more.
This plot is like the one in the tale of "The Cbash Brothers Save Grandpa,"ing one after another.
"Threaten you?"
Liu Bei sneered.
Then, he suddenly changed his tone, sneering coldly, "Young man, fighting and brawling in a hospital, isn''t that bad?"
"Fighting and brawling?"
"Exining it to me is useless; what you need to do is exin it to the police!" Liu Bei interrupted Ye Huan, who wasn''t nning to "exin" anything at all, with a cold smile.
Ye Huan quickly understood Liu Bei''s intention.
Liu Bei wanted to me him for arranging a fight with gangsters and disrupting the hospital order.
By this time, Zhao Zilong had hung up the phone.
He walked up, saying, "Patriarch, the officers will arrive in five minutes."
"Good, first get Chan''er treated, I''ll wait here for the officers toe and take this kid to justice." Liu Bei said casually.
...
Five minutester, the police arrived at the hospital.
The fifty gangsters lying on the ground were either sent to the morgue directly, or left for treatment if severely injured, and those with minor injuries were all arrested.
However, the gangster leader Hei Zi, assisted by Zhao Zilong, had already slipped away within the five minutes it took for the police to arrive.
"Director Li, this kid and the gangsters had an arranged fight in the hospital, causing havoc!" After shaking hands with Director Li of the Su Hang City Police Bureau, Liu Bei immediately used Ye Huan as an evil-doer first.
Director Li''s face was ashen.
How dare gangsters have a fight in a ce as sacred as a hospital, causing such amotion? It''s simply disregarding the police!
Moreover, with more than fifty people involved in the brawl, this was an extremely vile incident.
But he didn''t easily believe Liu Bei''s words, after all, for a young man to single-handedly beat down fifty gangsters was a bit too far-fetched.
What he didn''t realize was that Ye Huan indeed had that capability, but he hadn''t even lifted a finger!
"Sir, is what the Liu patriarch said true?" Director Li asked Ye Huan with a serious expression.
Ye Huan shrugged helplessly, "Officer, you can easily verify that I didn''t fight or brawl with them, I was merely an onlooker, just watching."
Unfortunately, Director Li would not believe Ye Huan just because of his one statement in defense.
"Pleasee with us to the bureau for further investigation." Director Li said calmly.
"Let me say something to my wife first."
"Alright, say it and then follow us out." Director Li agreed.
"Help me connect with the right person."
Ye Huan opened the ward door and casually instructed Liu Tianyun.
"What''s going on..."
Before Liu Tianyun could finish asking, Ye Huan closed the ward door again.
By this time, Director Li''s face had turned extremely grim.
"Connect with someone? If you really were involved in the fight and brawl, no matter how strong your connections are, I will still bring you to justice!"
"Take him away!"
With a sternmand from Director Li, the police team packed up and left.
Ye Huan, due to his full cooperation, was not handcuffed.
Asking Liu Tianyun to connect would naturally mean having her inform Ye Tiance, the director of the Special Service Bureau.
As for whether the Liu family would act against Liu Tianyun after he left,
Ye Huan wasn''t worried at all.
With the second highest assassin protecting her, she would have no safety issues whatsoever.
She alone was enough to sweep through the entire Liu family.
"Connecting someone? Ridiculous!"
"On my territory, no matter how strong your background is, like diamond, I have at least ten thousand ways to kill you!"
Watching from the window as Ye Huan was put into a police car, Liu Bei sneered ferociously.
Zhao Zilong emerged from a nearbypartment, saying, "Patriarch, the n is in ce, and this kid, no matter how strong he is, will surely die."
"Hmm."
"By the way, Chan''er had his sights set on those two women in that ward, give him a call to let him know he can go after them now."
"If anything happens, I''ll take responsibility!"
Having said this, Liu Bei lit a cigar, took a puff, then turned and drove off to the police bureau.
Getting Ye Huan into the police bureau was just one of Liu Bei''s strategies, a strategy to detain Ye Huan.
If Ye Huan were not detained, it would be troublesome to find him againter on!
Although Ye Huan is innocent and will be released after cooperating with the police investigation, the process will still take several hours.
In those few hours, Hei Zi would have enough time to muster his forces.
Hei Zi would gather his remaining men, block the road, and cause trouble for this kid.
This kid has such strong abilities; he would inevitably retaliate on the spot.
With this, the charge of brawling in the street would be solidified, and the police would arrest him again!
Once charged, if he resists the police in a moment of panic, he would surely be pped with the charge of assaulting a police officer.
In Liu Bei''s n, once Ye Huan retaliates and with his great strength, it would surely cause injuries to the police.
Once the police realize his strength, they would surely contact the Special Service Bureau to handle this dangerous individual.
If he dares confront the Special Service Bureau, it''s a sure path to death!
Even if heplies, during sentencing, with charges of willful harm to the police causing injuries or deaths, the minimum starting point is execution.
Once things escte to that point, Liu Bei could eliminate Ye Huan without a drop of bloodshed, using the official''s hands.
This move is known as killing with a borrowed knife!
Furthermore, after Ye Huan''s demise, Liu Bei would take credit for eliminating Ye Huan, and then Zhao Zilong would step forward to apologize to the two Outer Sect elders Wang and Huang, which nearly equates to avenging the two Outer Sect elders, certain to extinguish their anger.
Not only that but also to eliminate this self-proimed powerful outsider!
Additionally, it would allow his son Liu Chan to take the women he wanted, thus venting his anger!
Kill three birds with one stone!
Liu Bei''s rise to lead the Liu family as the overlord of Su Hang is well-founded, he''s highly skilled at strategizing.
Thinking of utilizing the Special Service Bureau to eradicate this know-nothing kid who dared oppose the Liu family filled Liu Bei''s heart with glee.
Moreover,
toying with the police and the Special Service Bureau in his palm felt so exhrating!
Haha!
Chapter 391 - 389: Huaxia Guardian God!
Capital City, Ye Family.
"What? Ye Huan was arrested in Suzhou and Hangzhou?"
"I understand the situation, I''ll take care of it, don''t worry."
"How''s your health recovery going? Not bad? Alright, after I finish dealing with things in a couple of days, your aunt and I will go see you."
After Liu Tianyun finished exining the situation, Ye Tiance exchanged a few words with her and then hung up the phone.
Facing Ye Tiance directly, the elderly man with slicked-back hair and a serious expression took off his sses and furrowed his brow, "What, my precious grandson is in trouble?"
This elderly man was the Patriarch of the Ye FamilyYe Yaoguo!
Just by sitting there, he gave off an imposing aura.
"Yes, your precious grandson was provoked by a local tyrant, and then that rogue falsely used him first, ending up in the precinct."
Ye Tiance originally came to report to Ye Yaoguo about the Zhong Family and the issue of Ye Huan''s identity.
But since Ye Huan got into trouble, he could only make a call to inform the Zhong Familypound that things were settled, and dispatch a special task force training near Suzhou and Hangzhou to resolve the misunderstanding and have Ye Huan released.
Ye Yaoguo sped his hands in front of him, his face showing a hint of solemnity, "Many ces are overrun with local tyrants and need to be cleaned up seriously."
"Yes, many ces'' people are deeply suffering from local tyrants'' oppression," Ye Tiance said.
"Hmm, I will discuss this with Li Hentian as soon as possible and have the Ye and Li Families join forces to clean it up."
"By the way, has Dabo said anything about recognizing his ancestral roots?"
Ye Yaoguo sighed, "For him to achieve the position of God of ughter in the Dark World, he must have battled through fields of corpses and seas of blood. These years... have truly been hard on him. If he decides to return to the Ye Family, I will personally prepare a grand ceremony to recognize his ancestral roots."
Ye Tiance slowly shook his head and said softly, "He hasn''t agreed nor refused, just said he needs some time to ept it. I''ll have a deep conversation with him about this matter in some time."
"Hmm, that''s fine too." Ye Yaoguo agreed.
Following this, Ye Tiance suddenly steered the conversation into a serious tone, "Dad, who exactly is the old man Di Lin that adopted Dabo? You should know about this person and Jimiw Vige where he lived in the depths of the Great Wilderness, right?"
"..."
Ye Yaoguo was silent for a moment, his expression serious, "If you''re willing to take over the Ye Family, I can tell you about the identity of the old man Di Lin and what you want to know about Jimiw Vige."
Ye Tiance: "..."
He had no interest in handling family affairs, taking over the Ye Family was too much for him.
Ye Yaoguo could naturally see from Ye Tiance''s expression that he still didn''t want to take over the family, "If you''re unwilling to take over the family, I can''t tell you too many details about the old man Di Lin and Jimiw Vige."
"I can only tell you that the old man Di Lin is an existenceparable to a superpower, his power can be glimpsed from his title ''Di Lin!''"
"Only he could train Dabo into a Celestial God Level God of ughter in the Dark World at such a young age!"
"As for Jimiw Vige, concerning Huaxia, the status of this vige can be described in five words..."
"HuaxiaGuardian God!"
...
After making this call to Ye Tiance, Liu Tianyun sighed in relief.
With a special task force expert resolving the issue, Ye Huan should be out of the precinct in less than half a day.
However, despite the relief, Liu Tianyun''s delicate brows were tightly furrowed, and the unease in her heart grew increasingly intense, making her extremely anxious, almost unable to breathe.
She clutched her chest, her face turning a bit paler.
"Master Madam, are you feeling unwell? Should I call a doctor?" Kagami Reina, noticing her difort, asked from the side.
Master Madam?
This title made Liu Tianyun''s delicate brows arch.
If she were Master Madam, wouldn''t that imply there are Second, Third, and even more Madame?
But she couldn''t do anything about it; Liu Tianyun didn''t express her dissatisfaction.
After all, back then, she was the one who indulged Ye Huan, allowing him to seek out other women.
Does she regret it now?
Sending someone she cared about for over ten years to another woman''s side, she regretted it to death!
But since the n to change Ye Huan had not yet started, she could only swallow her pride for now, also trying to ept the title of "Master Madam" from Kagami Reina.
"No need, don''t worry, I''m fine." Liu Tianyun forced a smile, albeit an awkward one.
Kagami Reina''s expression was serious, "Master Madam, even though I''m not well-educated, that''s not a reason for you to deceive me. Yourplexion is so poor, you''re obviously unwell, let me call the doctor over."
Liu Tianyun hesitated for a few moments, clutching her chest, feeling the palpitations intensifying, and had to nod, "Okay, then..."
She had just spoken.
"Ring ring ring."
An abrupt phone ring sounded.
Liu Tianyun had to pick up the phone first.
After seeing the caller, she confirmed the source of her anxiety... This version is sourced from MV3L3MPYR.
Caller: "Liu Family ButlerZhou Yuan''an."
The moment she saw the caller ID, Liu Tianyun''s heart trembled!
Could it be that something happened to the Liu Family?
She hurriedly answered the call!
"Miss, you need toe back quickly, the Master... he''s not going to make it!!!"
Before Liu Tianyun could speak, Zhou Yuan''an''s voice came through with a sobbing tone filled with extreme sorrow.
This news struck Liu Tianyun like a bolt from the blue.
The phone slipped from her grasp, and she didn''t even realize it.
"Madam, what happened?" Kagami Reina asked.
"Return to Celestial Sea!!!" Liu Tianyun shouted with an urgent expression.
Kagami Reina nodded gravely, realizing something big might have happened, and took out her phone to call a long-distance taxi.
But just then.
"Bang!" a loud noise.
The hospital room door was kicked open directly.
Liu Chan, with a bruised and swollen face, his whole face covered in bandages, walked in with his hands in his pockets...
A lecherous smile filled his face.
After entering, he licked his lips with his tongue andughed:
"Two beauties, were you getting anxious~"
"No worries, I''m here to take care of you both, haha!"
Kagami Reina, her eyes turned cold...
Chapter 392 - 390: Ambush
Suhang City, Police Headquarters.
"Name."
"Ye Huan."
"Age."
"25."
"Gender."
"Male."
"Residence."
"Celestial Sea."
"upation."
"Deputy General Manager and Head of Security at Tianyun International in Celestial Sea."
"..."
"..."
After a series of questions, seeing Ye Huan cooperating so well, Director Li''s tone also improved significantly.
"Mr. Ye, are you sure you didn''t participate in the brawl?"
"No." Ye Huan replied decisively, his expression unchanged, showing none of the guilt of a guilty conscience.
Seeing Ye Huan''s certainty, as if he wasn''t lying, Director Li actually felt a bit convinced.
"I had a little disagreement with Liu Bei''s son, Liu Chan, and he framed me, leading to you arresting me." Ye Huan added with a face full of helplessness.
Ye Huan and Liu Bei each insisted on their own version.
If forced to choose, Director Li would lean towards Ye Huan.
After all, Liu Bei was notoriously cunning, and Ye Huan single-handedly took on fifty thugs, which seemed rather unbelievable.
But there''s no choice, a case must not include personal judgment and feelings.
Having asked all the necessary questions, Director Li concluded the interrogation, took the notebook recording the interrogation content, and stood up to leave.
Just after exiting the interrogation room, he was bumped by a jogging police officer.
"What''s going on, being so reckless?" Director Li frowned slightly.
"Sorry, Chief, something unexpected happened. A colonel from the Special Service Bureau is here, asking specifically for you. He''s in the reception room now."
A colonel from the Special Service Bureau?
This is quite a rare guest...
Director Li frowned, nodded, and then hurriedly made his way there.
On the leather sofa in the reception room sat a dark-skinned, ck military coat-wearing colonel from the Special Service Bureau.
Upon seeing him, Director Li saluted immediately, "Hello, Colonel Zhou, is there any directive for your visit to the police bureau?"
In the ranking of Huaxia''sw enforcement agencies, the Special Service Bureau has a higher priority than the police department.
The colonel rank in the Special Service Bureau is one level above his position as the director of the prefecture-level city''s police bureau, hence he showed respect and used the term "visit."
Colonel Zhou stood up, returned the salute, and then asked ndly, "Have you arrested a man named Ye Huan?"
Director Li nodded, "Yes, he might be suspected of participating in a brawl and was taken to the police bureau for investigation."
"Release him immediately!" Colonel Zhou, with hands behind his back, showed a very serious expression.
"Colonel Zhou, this does notply with our regtions. Before hepletes the investigation, no one has the authority to release him."
Director Li, with a stern face, directly refused. He was known as an impartial and righteous director, who wouldn''t give face to anyone.
He especially disliked those who sought connections, backers, and privileges.
His previously favorable impression of Ye Huan suddenly diminished.
But what Colonel Zhou said next made him change his stance abruptly.
"I am here to take away Ye Huan under the directive of our Director Ye Tiance."
"Ye Huan is the greatest contributor to the Zhong Family human trafficking case, also the holder of an SSS-level top secret file, and furthermore a Lei Feng citizen of Celestial Sea City!"
"ording to our intelligence, he was framed by Liu Bei, head of the Suhang Liu Family, causing you to arrest him."
Colonel Zhou''s words sincerely shocked Director Li, making him even gasp.
Without exception, all warriors under the Special Service Bureau are selected throughyers of scrutiny, being the most loyal national guards of Huaxia.
And as a mid-levelmander within the Special Service Bureau, Colonel Zhou is even more so.
So naturally, Director Li believed every word of Colonel Zhou!
The Zhong Family human trafficking case had been a hot topic not only in Huaxia but worldwide, yet the key man who cracked the case remained undisclosed.
Unexpectedly, this person was Ye Huan!
Moreover, he''s the holder of an SSS-level top secret file?
Every such individual, without exception, is the backbone of Huaxia; how could they possibly participate in a brawl?
As for the intelligence from the Special Service Bureau, Director Li doubted not its uracy, as it is Huaxia''srgest intelligence agency after all.
Indeed, it''s Liu Bei, the true viin, who used Ye, the "great Lei Feng," first, getting him trapped in the bureau; despicable!
Director Li cursed Liu Bei bitterly in his heart.
But now wasn''t the time for anger, he hurriedly said, "I will release Comrade Ye Huan immediately, please rest assured, Colonel Zhou!"
"Good, arrange it quickly. I will be waiting for him at the station road." Colonel Zhou said and then turned and left the police bureau.
Director Li acted swiftly,pleting Ye Huan''s release procedures in just two or three minutes, and before Ye Huan left the police bureau, he solemnly saluted him, expressing an apology.
...
Station Road, the essential path from the police bureau to the city hospital.
Ye Huan, an outsider, upon leaving the police bureau, where else could he go?
Return to the hospital to report to his wife!
This is precisely why Liu Bei, anticipating this, led Zhao Zilong and Heizi with a hundred people to Station Road to ambush.
Once they saw Ye Huan, they would confront him and incite a conflict.
This way, Ye Huan would be charged for the brawl attempt, falling perfectly into Liu Bei''s trap.
Since the dispute was not initiated by Ye Huan, he would be displeased when arrested by the police, leading to a confrontation with them.
Following this, when the police proved inadequate, they would contact the Special Service Bureau to take out Ye Huan.
Hahaha!
This time, Ye Huan is doomed!
Liu Bei, with his sinister calctions, had everything figured out.
He wore a contemptuous smile.
Opposing the Liu Family, opposing him, Liu Bei, opposing his son, Liu Chan.
Ye Huan''s every move, in his eyes, was courting death entirely. Thechaptersarealwaysavablefirston*.
The rising dragon from Celestial Sea?
Ridiculous, on Liu Family''s turf, tigers must crouch, and dragons must coil!
In the van, Liu Bei snapped off a cigarette butt strongly, "Haven''t we reached yet?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the van turned off,ing to a halt.
This van leading the way was followed by five more vans.
"Arrived!"
"However..."
In the driver''s seat, Heizi, bruised and swollen, asked doubtfully, "Patriarch, do we have so many people with guns in front?"
People with guns?
Liu Bei peeked out the back seat to look at the car''s front.
Wow, there were nearly a thousand fully armed people in camouge uniforms!
Judging by their camouge outfits, these were Special Service Warriors!
Good heavens!
Liu Bei was thrilled, "Haha, great, everyone get out!"
Chapter 393 - 391 Haha, brothers of the Special Service Bureau, how are you!
"Ah, aren''t we supposed to run now?" asked Zhao Zilong, surprised from the back seat.
"Run? My ass!"
"The Special Service Bureau guys are here to help us!"
"That punk Ye Huan injured Wang Kuang and Huang Panyi - the two Dragon Gate Outer Sect elders. The elders must be pissed, so they got our Special Service buddies to set up an ambush on this road and give Ye Huan a hard time, haha!"
With one sentence, Liu Bei enlightened Zhao Zilong.
Indeed, injuring the two Dragon Gate Outer Sect elders would definitely make them furious.
The elders pressuring the Special Service Bureau to deal with Ye Huan is perfectly reasonable.
"Quick, tell the boys to grab their gear and get off!"
"When we beat up Ye Huanter, everyone better go all out and not let the Special Servicedsugh at us!"
"Hurry up, get off, Ye Huan is probably almost here!"
Liu Bei gave orders over the inte and then was the first to open the car door.
He wasughing maniacally inside.
This was truly unnecessary.
Without waiting for the police to contact the Special Service Bureau, they took the initiative to cause trouble for Ye Huan. This kid was surely doomed!
But it made sense.
Who doesn''t die when offending the Liu family?
Ye Huan must die, and Liu Bei was pleased.
But more thrilling was the thought.
Possibly using this chance to hook up with the Special Service Bureau, the Liu family would truly rise to the top!
Forget being the overlord of Suhang.
With the Special Service Bureau backing them, bing the ruler of Jiangnan wouldn''t be impossible!
"Swish"
The van doors swung open in unison.
Over a hundred thugs wielding machetes followed Liu Bei, jogging towards the position of the Special Service operators, the scene was quite spectacr...
Meanwhile, the gang led by Heizi at the rear was also ted.
If they could use this opportunity to befriend the Special Service operators, it would be tremendously prestigious!
"No kidding, the Liu Patriarch''s connections are so strong, even able to mobilize the Special Service operators? That''s insane!"
"Haha boss, we''re really with the right crowd, who knew the Liu Patriarch was so badass!"
"No need to say more, from now on the Special Service operators are our brothers!" Heiziughed heartily.
A group of over a hundred people ran up to the Special Service operators.
Then, they all eagerly offered their hands, warmly shaking hands with the operators.
"Haha, hello brothers, hello there!"
Including Deputy Colonel Zhou, all the Special Service operators were stunned.
Were their guns not polished shiny enough, or were these people, who looked like criminals, just in stupid?
Even if they were stupid, wouldn''t bringing over a hundred people to get their heads bashed be over the top?
"Haha, Deputy Colonel, nice to meet you, nice to meet you!"
After scanning the rank on the shoulder of the Special Service operator, Liu Bei confirmed that the dark-skinned man had the highest rank and sped Deputy Colonel Zhou''s hand with a ttering smile.
"What are you guys doing?" Deputy Colonel Zhou asked with a frown.
Logically, he should be leaving at this point, but to ensure the mission wasplete, he stayed to wait for Ye Huan to leave the police station.
Who knew a bunch of criminals would deliver themselves over.
"Hey, Deputy Colonel, we''re all on the same side!"
"Our purpose here is the same as yours!"
Liu Bei''s face was getting more obsequious.
"You''re here because of Ye Huan?" Deputy Colonel Zhou asked, puzzled.
"Of course, we''re all on the same side! Later let''s cooperate and easily beat that punk Ye Huan to death, haha!"
Liu Beiughed heartily, shaking Deputy Colonel Zhou''s hand more firmly.
Deputy Colonel Zhou raised an eyebrow, "Beat Ye Huan? You''re going to join in too?"
Liu Bei earnestly replied, "Of course. I can say I''m the main force in beating Ye Huan! Besides me, who else in Suhang can assemble a team of over a hundred?"
"Deputy Colonel, don''t worry, when ites to beating Ye Huan, my people are the main force, if we can''t take him down, you guys can step in!"
"Today we''ll definitely beat that brat to hell, he''s asking for it!"
Liu Bei wickedly shed the air twice with his finger.
"Are you serious?" Deputy Colonel Zhou''s eyes had started to narrow slightly.
"Of course I''m serious! These people I gathered toe and beat that punk Ye Huan!"
"Deputy Colonel, don''t worry, my guys are strong fighters, they''ll definitely beat him ck and blue!"
"Beat him to death..."
Before thest line was finished, Liu Bei''s legs gave way, and his pants werepletely soaked.
Because a dark and cold gun barrel was shoved into his mouth!
"Click!"
"Click!"
"Click!"
The sounds of guns being raised and bolts being pulled echoed continuously!
Then followed by the ttering sound of machetes hitting the ground!
The hundred thugs all copsed to the ground, wetting themselves in fear!
All the Special Service operators raised their rifles, the muzzle either stuffed into a thug''s mouth or pressed against their foreheads!
My god!
They were used to bullying ordinary folks, but had never seen such a scene like this!
The soul was almost scared out!
"Big brother... big brother, what are you doing?"
"Aren''t... Aren''t we here to beat up Ye Huan? We''re on the same side!"
"Let''s talk this over, there must be some misunderstanding... Could you... could you please move the gun away first?"
Liu Bei''s body was trembling incessantly, cold sweat pouring down.
"Speak, who are you!" Colonel Zhou sternly demanded.
"I... I''m the Patriarch of the Liu family, Liu Bei!" Liu Bei was so afraid Colonel Zhou would shoot him, he spoke as fast as he could.
"And these people?" Colonel Zhou''s face was very grim.
He was one of the two colonels previously tasked by Ye Tiance to go to S-01 to persuade Ye Huan to ept the protection of the Special Service Bureau, so he was one of the few who knew Ye Huan''s identity.
Who is Ye Huan?
The scion of the Special Service Bureau!
These hooligans were trulywless, daring to think of killing the young master of the Special Service Bureau in broad daylight?
"These people..."
Liu Bei couldn''t make sense of the situation and almost cried out, "I... I don''t know, I don''t recognize them!"
"Didn''t you just say you were the main forceing to beat up Ye Huan? You also said that without you, these over a hundred people couldn''t be organized?" The more Colonel Zhou spoke, the tighter he pressed the gun against Liu Bei''s forehead.
"No... no, that''s not it, I don''t know them!"
Liu Bei shouted in panic.
He couldn''t make sense of the situation.
He said they were on the same side, why wouldn''t they believe it?
Gritting his teeth, his brain spun quickly, and he thought of a n.
His expression suddenly turned calm, mustering up his courage, he asked angrily, "Who''s your superior officer?"
Superior officer?
Under the Special Service Bureau, there are a total of ten Special Service brigades, each with a thousand people, and the top officer is the brigademander.
Above that, they take direct orders from the Special Service Bureau Committee led by Ye Tiance asmander.
However, under normal circumstances, the training of the Special Service brigade is handled by the brigademander, and the Committee does not intervene. Find this hptr''s sur n V-L-YR.
Therefore, Colonel Zhou is the absolute leader in this thousand-person Special Service brigade.
Colonel Zhou''s face was still very cold, and he replied coldly, "Zhou FuguiCaptain Zhou, is there a problem?"
"Haha, Captain Zhou, huh."
"I''m very familiar with him!"
Liu Beiughed twice, patting Zhou Fugui on the shoulder, saying, "I''m close with him! We''ve had meals together, our rtionship is very good!"
Colonel Zhou couldn''t help but chuckle, curling his lips, "Have you met him?"
"Of course I have!"
"Just two days ago, we had a meal together and even went for a bath!"
Liu Bei waved at the Special Service soldiers, "Brothers, put down the guns first, we''re on the same side, don''t identally fire the guns!"
Of course, the Special Service soldiers wouldn''t listen to him.
However, they all showed yful expressions.
"Do you know me?" Colonel Zhou continued with a lightugh.
"You? I''ve heard your captain mention you, young and full of skill, highly acimed as the rising star of the Special Service Bureau." Liu Bei continued tough heartily, his face trembling with fat, looking as if he was in a good mood.
"I''m actually Zhou Fugui."
Colonel Zhou''s coldugh instantly froze the smile on Liu Bei''s face, making it look worse than crying.
In utter embarrassment, he was in despair.
In his despair, he swept his eyes outside.
Seeing a man walking this way, he felt a glimmer of hope.
"Ye Huan is here, get your weapons, beat him up!"
"Hit him hard, don''t let the Special Service brothersugh at us!"
"Kill him!!!"
Liu Bei shouted with raised arms!
Seeing this, the hooligans hastily picked up the machetes from the ground, and then erupted!
But then...
"Bang!"
The sound of a gunshot echoed.
The hooligans were immediately scared, screaming as they squatted down with their heads in their hands.
As for Liu Bei, he was kicked to the ground by Zhou Fugui, howling in pain.
Zhou Fugui holstered the smoking gun, coldly surveying the squatting hooligans, "If anyone dares to make a move again, don''t me the bullets for having no eyes!"
"..."
The entire venue was silent, heads all pinned by gun muzzles, the hooligans dared not make a sound, shivering constantly.
Liu Bei was full of confusion, cursing endlessly!
Weren''t they supposed to be here to beat up Ye Huan!
Why are they turning on their own!
Do they actually intend to shoot their own??
Initially, when he saw Ye Huan, he wanted the hooligans to rush and sh him to make the Special Service soldiers believe they were on the same side, but who knew the soldiers fired their guns!
What''s going on!
Liu Bei was baffled.
The next second, Zhou Fugui''s actions made everything clear to him.
Zhou Fugui stepped forward, giving a respectful salute to Ye Huan.
"Hello, Mr. Ye!"
Chapter 394 - 392 Grandpa Ye, please... please spare the Liu family!!!
Hello, Mr. Ye???
Damn, it turns out these guys weren''t here for Ye Huan at all!
Liu Bei''s eyes widened in disbelief.
"Hello, thank you foring all this way," Ye Huan replied.
Then, with a yful nce, he looked at Liu Bei, "Patriarch Liu, what is this?"
"Oh, Young Master Ye, no Mr. Ye, this is what happened. This kid brought about a hundred thugs here to block you, and happened to run into us. They thought we were here to block you too and just came to us on their own,"
Before Liu Bei could speak, Zhou Fugui exined what had happened.
Ye Huan thought for a moment and understood Liu Bei''s n.
Initially, he was puzzled. He was innocent, and even if he were taken to the police station, the matter would soon be cleared up, and he would be released. Being in the station wouldn''t harm him at all.
Now it seems Liu Bei''s intention was to trap him in the police station, then bring people here to use him and solidify the charges.
The subsequent series of events were not hard to guess.
Nothing more than a desperate conflict with the police, the police being overwhelmed, and contacting the Special Service Bureau for assistance.
This ploy of using one person to kill another might work on others, but used against him, Ye Huan, it''s downrightughable.
Who is Ye Huan?
The son of Ye Tiance!
"Did Ye Tiance send you?" Ye Huan asked Zhou Fugui.
Zhou Fugui nodded, "Yes, the director sent us over, saying he received a call from your wife, she told him you were tricked by viins into the station."
After speaking, he asked, "How do we handle these people on the ground?"
"Handle them ording to thew."
Ye Huan casually waved his hand and walked away.
"..."
The scene was utterly silent.
Liu Bei, who was stepped on by Zhou Fugui, looked at Ye Huan''s departing back with eyes wider than eggs, his mouth open wide enough to fit a rock, his face and eyes full of shock!
Oh my god!!!!!!!!
What did I just hear? Th full sris livs n y Virtul Librry mpir (|V|L0YR).
What did I just hear!!!
Ye Tiance???
The fifth son of the Ye FamilyYe Tiance?
Ye Tiance, received a call from Ye Huan''s wife?
Oh my god!
So, when Ye Huan told Liu Tianyun to "use connections," it wasn''t just anyone he was referring toit was that man standing at the pinnacle of power!
No wonder he was so fearless when the police took him away, so indifferent!
And Ye Tiance, Ye Huan?
These two... have the same surname?
Liu Bei''s heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that the rumor circting in high society today, that Ye Tiance found his long-lost son...
Could this person be Ye Huan???
Oh my god!
Isn''t this Huaxia''s number one young master!!!
On the Liu Family''s turf, even if his background is harder than diamond, there are no less than ten thousand ways to make him pay for offending someone from the Liu Family?
That''s right.
But...
The direct descendants of the Ye and Li Families, their backgrounds are unmatched even by diamond.
Stronger than a hundred tons of diamond, stronger than a million tons of Obsidian!
Kill him?
Ridiculous, Ye Tiance is his father!
The Ye and Li Families are his backing!
He himself possesses such strength!
Who in the entirety of Huaxia can touch him!
On the Liu Family''s territory, the tiger must lie down, the dragon crossing the river must bow?
His grandfather is the Patriarch of the Ye Family, his maternal grandfather is the Patriarch of the Li Family!
A dragon crossing the river?
This isn''t a dragon crossing the river, this is a covert visit, a dragon roaming Jiangsu and Zhejiang!
Opposing him, the Liu Family is on a path to destruction!
Liu Bei is very angry, indeed, the consequences are severe.
Severe enough that the Liu Family is about to face a catastrophe!!!
Liu Bei''s lips trembled continuously!
It''s over!
Everything is over!
The Liu Family, is finished!!!
Not only will the Liu Family not rise to the top, but it''s going to end in disaster!!!
Liu Bei didn''t know where he got the courage and strength, he suddenly broke free from under Zhou Fugui''s foot and lunged towards Ye Huan
After grabbing Ye Huan''s leg, he cried loudly, "Grandfather Ye, I beg you I beg you to forgive me, forgive the Liu Family this once, I, Liu Bei, am willing willing to be your servant, I, Liu Bei, am willing to be your servant!"
"To be my servant, are you worthy?" Ye Huan raised an eyebrow, kicked him, and sent him flying back to Zhou Fugui''s side, howling in pain.
Liu Bei was utterly in despair.
Looking in the direction Ye Huan left, it was as if he thought of something, his body shuddered violently, he hurriedly pulled out his phone to make a call.
But at this moment, a call came in.
"Dad, save me save me!"
"I I was beaten into a pulp by this crazy woman!"
"Help!!!"
Chapter 395 - 393: Huaxia Crown Prince Consort!
Upon receiving this phone call, Liu Bei was filled with despair, he knew...
The call was made toote.
Earlier, when Ye Huan was taken away, as he led people to set up on Tongzhan Road, he instructed Zhao Zilong to notify Liu Chan, telling him that he could take down those two women.
But...
The Crown Prince Consort of Huaxia, how could a small Liu family, how could the eldest son of the small Liu family touch her!?
This phone call was made toote, Liu Chan and he, Liu Bei, together,pletely and utterly offended the Crown Prince of Huaxia.
He deeply regretted it, regretted having such a troublemaking son!
Regretting letting Zhao Zilong contact Liu Chan, letting him touch the Crown Prince Consort of Huaxia!
Offending the Crown Prince and Crown Prince Consort of Huaxia...
The Liu family was utterly finished.
Not even a glimmer of hope was left.
"Save you? What do I have to save you with!"
"Do you know who you''ve offended!"
"Ye Tiance''s son, the Crown Prince of Huaxia!!!"
"Offending such a presence, my Liu family... is done!!!"
"Puh!!!"
Under the extreme rage, Liu Bei spat out a mouthful of blood and immediately passed out...
Zhou Fugui then reported to Ye Tiance that the task waspleted and contacted the police to arrest all those thugs.
...
Suzhou and Hangzhou City, First People''s Hospital, high-end ward area, room 708.
At the moment he lecherously shouted "I''lle to take you down," Liu Chan was pped dizzy by Kagami Reina, his head mmed into the wall, breaking it and bleeding.
Afterward, he made a call to Liu Bei for help.
Following the sound of Liu Bei''s "puh" of blood spitting, the call ended, and Liu Chan, looking like a pig, stared with eyes wide like copper bells, and the phone slipped from his hand to the ground.
Ye Tiance and Lilu''s... son?
That kid?
That kid is actually the Crown Prince of Huaxia?
How could it be!
How could his background be so powerful!
Liu Chan couldn''t believe it, but Liu Bei''s previous angry tone and the sound of blood spurting convinced him!
He had no choice but to believe that not only could the Liu family not eliminate Ye Huan, this dragon crossing the river, but they would also be destroyed because of him!
This dragon crossing the river not only looked more handsome than him but also had a background a hundred times stronger than his!
The Liu family? In front of the Ye and Lilu families, they were no match!
Moreover, treating the Crown Prince Consort of Huaxia as prey and thus conflicting with Ye Huan, the Crown Prince?
Doing such a thing, you might as well contact the crematorium directly!
It''s not that the identity of Liu''s eldest cannot suppress him, but that... but that in front of the Crown Prince, Liu''s eldest son is nothing!
The Liu family is finished!
The Liu family is finished!
The Liu family is finished!
Liu Chan''s lips trembled, regretting intensely.
Having barged into room 708 trying to take Liu Tianyun and Kagami Reina, only to be severely beaten and left half dead, he dared not harbor any anger anymore.
The Liu family could barely protect themselves.
What he needed to do was to save himself!
To save his own life!
"I''m sorry!"
Thetest chapters are uploaded first on *.
"I''m sorry!"
"Granny Tianyun, I''m sorry, it''s me... my fault!"
"Please... please forgive me this once!"
"I shouldn''t have... shouldn''t have disrespected you, I... I shouldn''t have been arrogant in front of you!"
Liu Chan fell t on the ground, crying intensely.
Liu Tianyun''s face remained extremely cold, the temperature in the room dropping significantly, giving Liu Chan no good face.
Kagami Reina was the same.
Liu Chan cried more pitifully, gritting his teeth, he lowered his head to the ground, licking the floor trying to clean the dirty grease stains left by the spilled bird''s nest in an effort to douse some of the anger in Liu Tianyun''s, the Crown Prince Consort of Huaxia, heart...
At this point, he was no longer the image of the majestic eldest son of the Liu family, but rather a ''beggar not choosy'' wild dog...
Chapter 396 - 394 Critical Condition
At the same time, Ye Huan happened to push the door open and enter, and couldn''t help but be a little surprised to see this scene.
Previously, Liu Chan was taken away by Zhao Zilong for treatment. He had nned to learn about the situation and then go to the boy''s ward to drag him out and make him clean the floor with his tongue.
Unexpectedly, the boy had already started.
This is good too, saving a lot of trouble.
"Grandpa Ye, Grandpa Ye, please speak for me, I beg... beg you, please talk to Grandma Tianyun for me, I know... I know I''m wrong!"
"I... I was blind and ignorant, I shouldn''t have offended you, I know I''m wrong!"
Upon seeing Ye Huan, Liu Chan cried and hugged Ye Huan''s leg, begging for forgiveness.
"It''s my... it''s my dad!"
Visit My Virtual Library Empire (*) for more.
"Yes, it''s my dad who spoiled me into this!"
"It''s all because Liu Bei spoiled mewlessly since I was a child. If it weren''t for him, I wouldn''t have dared to offend Grandpa Ye and Grandma Tianyun. You... go find him for trouble, go kill him, don''t kill me, please... please spare me!!!"
Liu Chan cried miserably, yet once again he refreshed Ye Huan''s view of him.
To betray even his own father, he truly deserves to be known as the number one notorious scoundrel in Suzhou and Hangzhou, even across Jiangnan, his malicious mind is astonishing.
"Lick it clean," Ye Huan said indifferently.
Liu Chan thought that if he licked it clean, he could leave, and began licking with great joy and effort.
In less than three minutes, the floor became smooth and shiny. Liu Chan knelt on the ground, looking pitifully at Ye Huan, looking no different from a dog.
He was anticipating, anticipating that Ye Huan would speak and let him go.
Unfortunately, beforeing to the hospital, Ye Huan had inquired about some situations in Suzhou and Hangzhou from a few residents.
Without exception, what he heard was about Liu Chan''s notorious reputations, bullying the social undeyer, his "brilliant achievements."
Such a person should go to Hell to repent for his sins.
"Take him away, deal with him." Ye Huan waved his hand.
Kagami Reina nodded, her eyes turning cold as she suddenly sped Liu Chan''s neck, making him struggle desperately for several minutes before dying from suffocation.
Afterward, she carried Liu Chan out of the ward and went to the hospital morgue, casually tossing him onto an empty bed.
Liu Da Shao is very angry, and the consequence is very serious!
Indeed serious, more serious than he had ever imagined!
That is, after getting angry, it only took half a day before he died and went to the Yellow Springs!
...
"Quick, take me back to Celestial Sea!"
After Liu Chan was resolved, Liu Tianyun anxiously pulled out the needle from her hand that was infusing nutrients, urgently dragging Ye Huan out of the ward.
Ye Huan couldn''t help but frown, knowing that Liu Tianyun''s sudden urgency to return to Celestial Sea was not without reason, and asked: "What''s wrong, what happened?"
"Just now, Zhou Yuanan called, saying my grandfather... he''s almost gone!" Liu Tianyun gritted her teeth, trying hard not to let her tears fall.
When she received that call, her mind was nk.
In the noble families, affection is always cold.
In the Liu Family, except for her grandfather Liu Aimin, she had no rtives, not even her mother, who moved abroad after divorcing her father and never cared for her.
Even when she was abducted andter rescued into the welfare home, only her grandfather Liu Aimin tirelessly searched for her and eventually brought her back from the welfare home to the Liu Family.
Until she became an adult and showed an exceptional talent in business, her mother asionally returned to the country, giving her "motherly love."
But did her mother really love her?
Not so.
Her mother simply valued her money-making ability and her striking looks and figure.
Her mother hoped, hoped that she would one day use her looks and figure to marry into a family evenrger than the Liu Family and be the young mistress of that noble family, thus raising her status and gaining greater benefits.
Her mother wanted to curry favor with her, but...
The other juniors of the Liu Family were extremely jealous and fearful of hermercial talent.
The reason being, the Liu Family Patriarch, Liu Aimin, did not hold feudal ideas and did not care whether the position of Patriarch was inherited by a son or daughter, once iming that whoever''spany could surpass Tianyun International in business could inherit the Liu Family.
Surpass Tianyun International? The Liu Family''s juniors, like drunken fools, didn''t even dare to imagine that!
So, Liu Aimin''s words made it almost certain to the Liu Family juniors that Liu Tianyun would be the heir to the Liu Family.
This made the other juniors extremely dissatisfied, but they did not dare openly confront Liu Tianyun because Liu Aimin was still alive, and Liu Tianyun was his most beloved junior.
If they provoked Liu Tianyun, it would mean provoking the Liu Family Patriarch Liu Aimin, which would be inviting trouble.
However, although they did not confront her openly, they would secretly hinder Tianyun International, assisting Tianyun International''s business rivals, and backstabbing Tianyun International.
As a result, Liu Tianyun led Tianyun International higher and higher, and thepanies opposing her either went bankrupt or the owners, knowing they couldn''tpete, fled with the money.
With such business acumen, the whole Liu Family, except for Liu Aimin and her mother who wanted to attach to her, all others were hostile to her, even wishing she would die early.
The noble families are so cold, but there is one person who, whenever she cannot bear it and wants to give up, gives her help and encouragement, and the warmth of family affection.
That person is her grandfather, Liu Aimin, who raised her since she was a child.
As a child, her features were sunken, her body covered with scars left by Jiang Tiansha''s beatings, immensely horrifying.
Being ugly, she was ostracized, beaten, and cursed by the children in the welfare home.
At this time, Ye Huan stood up, repeatedly shielding her, using absolute force to drive away those bad kids, making the bad kids in the welfare home dare not bully her again, bing her hero.
Chapter 397 - 394 Critical Condition_2
After Ye Huan was adopted by the old man from Di Lin, she was heartbroken for a few days, and then was found and brought back to the Liu Family by Liu Aimin.
Back at the Liu Family, having lived in a "living hell" for a long time before, she was extremelycking in a sense of security, and was therefore very wary of this grandfather whom she rarely met, almost not speaking to him.
At the same time, due to her ugly appearance and ck, rotten skin, she received the same "treatment" as when she was in the orphanage before Ye Huan showed up, suffering from the bullying and exclusion by the younger generation of the Liu Family.
After entering school, she was also ridiculed by ssmates because of her unattractive looks, being called nicknames like "Snot Ghost" and "Ugly Freak."
The younger generation of the Liu Family even teamed up in school to find new ways to bully her. Breaking ink bottles, hurling insults, throwing chalk were just the beginning.
Teachers saw that both the bullies and the bullied child were from wealthy families, afraid of being used of taking sides and getting themselves into trouble, they did not intervene.
This caused the bullying of Liu Tianyun by the Liu Family juniors to be increasingly severe, with incidents of hair pulling, pping, and kicking her to the ground urring daily on campus.
Liu Tianyun was so distressed that she contemted suicide several times and even attempted to follow through
The Liu Family was still in its rising phase at this time and Liu Aimin was incredibly busy.
This time, because he happened to fall ill from overwork and stayed home to recuperate during the day, he timely discovered and stopped Liu Tianyun''s wrist-cutting suicide attempt.
It was only then that Liu Aimin realized his granddaughter was being excluded and bullied by the Liu Family juniors, and he was immediately filled with guilt.
That night, he convened a Liu Family meeting to make his attitude clear.
If the young juniors of the Liu Family dared to bully Liu Tianyun again, they would face his wrath and punishment.
One meeting was not enough.
Liu Aimin repeatedly took time out from his busy schedule to quietly visit the schools where the Liu Family children were studying, discovering that while the intensity had decreased significantly, Liu Tianyun was still being bullied.
Liu Aimin was furious on the spot.
Teachers shirking their responsibilities?
Using Liu Family''s influence, he would have them dismissed and banned from the entire industry!
Liu Family children bullying Liu Tianyun?
One p per person!
And cancel their parents'' annual bonuses!
It should be noted that, back then, each Liu Family annual bonus was no less than five million!
Without this money, the entire family would have to scrimp and save for a whole year!
The parents of the juniors were naturally very angry, using belts, performing mixed assaults as couples, thrashing them until they no longer dared to bully Liu Tianyun.
If they didn''t dare, the younger generation of the Liu Family would secretly contact outsiders to instruct other ssmates in school to bully Liu Tianyun.
When Liu Aimin discovered this, he used the Liu Family''s influence to directly contact the police to arrest those hooligans.
Volunteered to beckeys for the Liu Family juniors, helping to bully Liu Tianyun?
The Liu Family took action, no matter how many there were, they would make their whole families bankrupt!
The irresponsible principal was also directly dismissed and banned from the industry due to Liu Aimin''s maneuvering!
After the new principal took office, Liu Tianyun became the "important protection object" of the school, and no one dared to bully her again.
Even daring to call her nicknames or giving her new nicknames would lead to their swift expulsion once the school found out!
Trips, bumps, or injuries on her body?
Liu Aimin, furious as he was, first sent Liu Tianyun to the hospital, then used Liu Family''s influence to investigate the entire school to see if anyone had bullied his precious granddaughter!
This kind of ''over-the-top'' behavior was undoubtedly full of love and spoiling for Liu Tianyun and also unlocked the lock in her heart.
For the first time, she spoke with Liu Aimin, asking a question.
"My mother didn''t want me, so why do you care so much about me?"
Liu Aimin''s answer was only seven words.
"Because I am your grandfather!" My Virtual Library Empire (*)
For the first time, Liu Tianyun felt kinship andpletely regarded Liu Aimin as a rtive.
In school, although the children did not dare to bully her, they still excluded her, exerting emotional abuse on her.
Liu Tianyun didn''t care; her personality began to be quiet and cold.
In the past twenty years she had lived, there were only Qin Ya, and a few friends who could be counted on one hand, but she didn''t mind.
Initially, others rejected her.
Butter on, it was she who rejected everyone!
Ugly freak? Snot ghost?
Ridiculous. At nine years old, the scars on Liu Tianyun''s skin healed over time, bing fair and smooth, with the initial signs of beauty emerging.
By twelve, Liu Tianyun had already be poised and graceful, with well-defined and delicate features, and a body with golden proportions.
By sixteen, her figure had be more striking, exuding a noble and cold aura from within, attracting the attention of many scouts who invited her to enter the entertainment industry.
She refused, and although the scouts were regretful, in pursuit of traffic and money, they still distributed the secretly taken photos of her online, with the words "fairy descends to earth" frequently appearing in thements under these photos.
Her beauty shocked the entire Huaxia!
Upon discovering the photos were taken without permission, Liu Aimin, in anger, tracked down and banned all the scouts involved in the matter, further using the Liu Family''s connections and power to sanction those media tforms that published photos without others'' consent.
The photos were soon deleted, but many top-tier and super first-tier female stars eximed, "With my makeup on, my face and figure are still not as good as that of a sixteen-year-old girl without makeup!"
Everyone who had bullied Liu Tianyun now realized that she was ugly in her childhood because she hadn''t yet blossomed!
The ugly duckling had grown into a white swan!
Realizing this, countless male ssmates pursued her but, after Liu Tianyunined, were severely warned by the principal and the Liu Family, allowing Liu Tianyun to peacefully focus on her studies.
They could see her but could not attain her; in their youth, they had "short-sightedly" bullied her, insulted her
There''s only one term that could describe the male ssmates'' feelings: "Regretful beyond measure!"
If they had yed the hero and saved the beauty back then, standing in front of all those who bullied her, they would surely have won the heart of the fairy who captivated and drove all men mad!
To win the heart of this fairy would be to make all other men envious, jealous, and resentful!
Unfortunately, not everyone can be the hero who saves the beauty!
The one that all men envy is destined to only be Ye Huan.
In this lifetime, her only hero is Ye Huan!
The other "giant" who shielded her from the wind and rain and protected her growth was Liu Aimin!
Without Ye Huan, she would have been beaten bloody and senseless by the bad kids in the orphanage long ago.
Without Liu Aimin, she would have been unable to bear the humiliation and would havemitted suicide by cutting her wrists due to the bullying by peers, cousins, and male cousins long ago.
It can be said that without Ye Huan and Liu Aimin, there would be no Celestial Sea''smercial queen todayLiu Tianyun!
In Liu Tianyun''s heart, aside from the ''big brother'', who is Ye Huan, there is only one rtive, Liu Aimin.
With Liu Aimin, one of her two closest rtives, critically ill, how could Liu Tianyun not be anxious or worried?
Upon receiving the news from Zhou Yuan''an, Liu Tianyun almost fainted on the spot.
When Ye Huan heard the news from Liu Tianyun''s mouth, his face slightly changed, and he rushed with her towards the Rolls-Royce Phantom parked outside the hospital.
"I''ll have Kagami Reina stay here to handle your discharge procedures; I''ll go back to Celestial Sea with you!"
Chapter 398 - 395 National Doctor Jiang Jinfu
The distance from Su Hang to Celestial Sea is neither too far nor too close.
Ye Huan drove the Rolls-Royce Phantom, speeding at 150 km/h, and arrived at the Liu Family residence four hourster.
By this time, night had fallen, but the Liu Family residence was brightly lit.
On the top floor of the vi, in the wide corridor.
"Uncle Zhou, how is Grandpa?" Liu Tianyun asked anxiously, disregarding her heavy breathing.
"Miss, please don''t worry. After discovering the Master''s ident, I immediately contacted Zhang Song, the leading Chinese medicine practitioner in Celestial Sea, to help with the treatment."
"But it wasn''t just Zhang Song who came; coincidentally, Jiang Jinfu, one of the Five Great National Physicians, was visiting the Celestial Sea Hospital and came along with Zhang Song."
"They are currently in the room diagnosing and treating the Master."
Jiang Jinfu of the Five Great National Physicians?
Upon hearing Zhou Yuan''an''s words, Liu Tianyun was first stunned, but although her anxious expression did not diminish, she breathed a small sigh of relief.
Huaxia''s Five Great National Physicians stand at the pinnacle of the global medicalmunity, universally acknowledged as living medical deities.
These five are considered national treasures, enjoying extremely high status and reputation within Huaxia.
There are rumors that even if one foot has stepped into King Yama''s gate, a Huaxia National Physician could forcibly pull the injured back from the jaws of death!
Jiang Jinfu is ranked third among the Five Great National Physicians, a super doctor!
Li Hentian, the patriarch of the Li Family, once suffered an acute cerebral hemorrhage due to overwork and was found unconscious.
Li Hentian''s dedicated doctor, a highly esteemed cardiovascr specialist in the global medical field,mented with deep regret, iming that the golden hour for rescue was missed and that Li Hentian had no hope!
But what was the oue?
Ye Yaoguo invited Jiang Jinfu, who was then at the bottom of the Five Great National Physicians, to make a final attempt on Li Hentian.
This attempt catapulted Jiang Jinfu from the bottom of the Five Great National Physicians to the third position!
Because... he shattered King Yama''s gate in just seventy-two hours, forcibly pulling Li Hentian back from the hands of King Yama!
It should be known that if the best half-hour rescue time is missed in an acute cerebral hemorrhage, the chance of bing a vegetative state or dying on the spot is almost 99.9999999999%!
But the miracle that could only happen in 0.00001% chance became reality in Jiang Jinfu''s hands!
After recovering from illness and injury, Li Hentian continued to steer the Li Family, leading it to achieve feats that drew global attention, bing the strongest powerhouse in Huaxia today!
Jiang Jinfu has since been hailed as the foremost National Physician after the disappearance of the first and second National Physicians for decades.
With his intervention, the chances of Liu Aimin''s survival certainly increased significantly.
Liu Tianyun indeed breathed a sigh of relief, but other members of the Liu Family were not as hopeful.
On the surface, the Liu family members appeared calm or even sorrowful, but deep down, there was an undisguised displeasure.
It was as if they were saying: Living so long is worse than dying, but with the arrival of the National Physician in Celestial Sea, this old life is likely to be saved again, bad luck!
Liu Aimin frequently expressed his desire to entrust the Liu Family to Liu Tianyun, but he never officially drafted a will or provided other tokens to truly pass on the position of patriarch.
Therefore, if Liu Aimin were to die like this, they would all have the possibility of inheriting the Liu Family.
Upon receiving the call regarding Liu Aimin''s critical condition, these parasites and ingrates attached to the Liu Family were nearly jumping with joy!
They happily rushed to the Liu Family residence, but what happened?
The National Physician Jiang Jinfu arrived!
Bad luck!
Apart from Ye Huan, Liu Tianyun, and the butler Zhou Yuan''an, everyone else in the Liu Family shared the same displeased attitude.
Among them, two people''s displeasure was particrly evident.
Liu Tianyun''s motherLiu Dandan.
The eldest young master of the Liu FamilyLiu Chuanzhi.
Their gazes intertwined, their expressions full of resentment.
At this moment, with a "click," the door opened.
Zhang Song, the foremost Chinese medicine practitioner in Celestial Sea, dressed in a white gown, stepped out, alongside Jiang Jinfu, who wore long white whiskers and leaned on a cane.
"Divine Doctor Zhang, Divine Doctor Jiang, how is our Master''s condition?"
Zhou Yuan''an quickly asked. Findthesourceofthischapterat*.
Liu Tianyun also looked hopeful.
The result, however, left their minds nk.
"Sorry, had I been there earlier, I might have been able to suppress the poison in his body.
"But by the time I arrived, the poison had already invaded his internal organs, permeated every inch of his vascr walls and breached the blood-brain barrier, and even his heart... waspletely enveloped by the poison, showing no signs of life."
"In this situation, I am truly powerless, even personally using acupuncture cannot remove the poison."
Jiang Jinfu sighed helplessly.
"If Divine Doctor Jiang says so, then I, Zhang Song, surely have no means to tackle this poison... I''m sorry."
Zhang Song, standing nearby, also heaved a deep sigh.
But just after he spoke,
he noticed a familiar face in the crowd, and his face brightened with delight.
"Master..."
Before the word "Master" could fullye out, Ye Huan shot him a sharp nce, forcing him to swallow back the "Master" all of a sudden...
Chapter 399 - 396: A Den of Ingrates
"..."
After Jiang Jinfu and Zhang Song announced Liu Aimin''s "death sentence," the entire room fell silent...
Liu Tianyun was struck as if by lightning, her mind went nk, and she involuntarily took a few steps back.
If it weren''t for Ye Huan''s support, she would have fallen to the ground by now.
Zhou Yuan''an, who had been favored by Liu Aimin for generations, also fell to the ground, his mindpletely nk.
Only their reactions were so intense.
The rest of the Liu Family were simply stunned.
Then...
They were overjoyed!
You see, with the first national physician and the second national physician already gone, and perhaps having passed decades ago, Jiang Jinfu was now the pinnacle of national medicine!
The pinnacle of national medicine, someone who could snatch people from King Yama, dance repeatedly at the gate of hell, making King Yama helpless!
Even this Divine Being couldn''t heal Liu Aimin?
Doesn''t that mean Liu Aimin is destined to die, and not even a deity could save him!?
Ha ha!
And the cause of Liu Aimin''s death... was poisoning?
The toxin invaded all his organs;
It permeated every inch of blood vessel wall;
Prated the blood-brain barrier;
His heart waspletely enveloped, showing no signs of life?
Damn, all these symptoms are incurable diseases!
Even Jiang Jinfu, the pinnacle of national medicine, was helpless!
The Liu Family members collectively disyed joy on their faces, barely restraining theirughter.
They didn''t care who poisoned Liu Aimin; as long as Liu Aimin was dead, they were happy.
These people, like parasites, used the legacy Liu Aimin fought hard for in his youth to indulge in luxury, throw money around, and act outrageously, yet they still hated Liu Aimin for wanting to pass the family legacy to a mere woman!
Now, this is karma.
"s, I didn''t expect grandpa to pass so suddenly, let''s prepare early and bury him."
"Leave these matters to me. I''ll arrange a top-notch funeral service for grandpa, but I don''t have much money, so everyone needs to contribute, about five million or so. The kickback won''t be much, just one million, consider it a fee for organizing."
"Five million, one million kickback? Are you robbing us? How about taking five million hell banknotes from grandpa, would that be enough!?" Chapterprovidedvia*.
"I''ll only take a five hundred thousand kickback, leave the burial to me. I promise to do it grandly, so even in the afterlife, grandpa will have endless wealth!"
"You''re robbing too, huh, I''ll..."
"That''s enough from you all!"
An angry shout startled the younger generation of the Liu Family.
Liu Tianyun couldn''t listen any longer, her voice hoarse with rage: "What are you doing!? Grandpa''s been gone for how long, and you''re not just ungrateful but making a ruckus over trivial gains outside his room? Can''t you do something decent!"
With Liu Aimin''s body not yet cold, the younger generation of the Liu Family were already outside his bed,peting to gain more benefits under the guise of funeral arrangements.
You see, without the Liu Family as their backing, without Liu Aimin as their backing, they would be nothing but ipetent fools in society!
With Liu Family and Liu Aimin''s support, they weren''t grateful, and instead, as soon as his body wasn''t yet cold, they argued over things more heartless than white-eyed wolves!
Chilling!
"Tianyun sister, you''re wrong in saying that!"
"Trivial gains? We brothers are all devoted grandsons, we want to personally bury grandpa and pay ourst respects, even if it''s for just a little money, we don''t mind!"
"And you? Just standing by watching, only knowing how to cry, no use at all, you can''t be given major tasks!"
The younger generation of the Liu Family, one after another, speaking in unison, all aiming their guns at Liu Tianyun, wearing sly smiles on their faces.
With Liu Aimin gone, Liu Tianyun''s greatest support was gone too, how could she remain arrogant?
Relying on that bumpkin husband from who knows which vige?
Ridiculous!
The younger Liu Family members snickered coldly; they never liked Liu Tianyun from a young age.
Previously they feared her beauty and Liu Aimin''s protection of her.
Now?
Liu Tianyun had no chance of marrying into a noble family in the Capital City, and Liu Aimin, as a pir of support, was gone; they had nothing to fear from Liu Tianyun anymore.
If Liu Tianyun continued to nag, they wouldn''t mind going up to p her a few times, showcasing martial prowess, teaching her what it means to be virtuous.
"That''s enough from you all!"
Suddenly, an angry shout.
Liu Chuanzhi, full of anger, walked over with his hands behind his back.
"Liu Chuanzhi, stop pretending to be the big shot here. Don''t think being the eldest means you''ll inherit the Liu Family; a few of us brothers together could easily outmaneuver you!"
The younger generation gave him no face, sneering inughter.
A sh of deep murderous intent crossed Liu Chuanzhi''s eyes, but he kept it from showing.
"Tianyun, we don''t need to stoop to the level of these ungrateful people, let''s go see grandpa onest time."
Liu Chuanzhi spoke softly.
Liu Tianyun, still angry, took a deep breath, nodded, wiped away the unshed tears from the corners of her eyes, and pushed open the door to enter Liu Aimin''s room.
Liu Chuanzhi, along with the rest of the Liu Family, followed in.
"Master, why didn''t you take action? If you had, Old Master Liu might still have a chance!" Alone, finally having an opportunity, Zhang Song asked Ye Huan in a voice only they could hear.
"No rush, let''s wait a bit." Ye Huan nonchntly responded with his hands in his pockets.
Wait a bit?
Ye Huan''s words, didn''t they imply he could save Old Master Liu?
Zhang Song waspletely at ease now, but still took a sharp breath of cold air.
A few months ago, he spent five hundred dors to "buy" an acupuncture manual from Ye Huan, which opened his eyes, and his medical skills advanced a level.
Understand, Zhang Song was already the top divine physician of the Celestial Sea, at his level a breakthrough was extremely difficult, yet several casual pointers from Ye Huan led him to enlightenment.
He had long suspected Ye Huan''s medical skills surpassed those of national physicians, now it was finally confirmed.
In admiration, he asked, "Master, what are you waiting for?"
"Waiting for...the white-eyed wolf who poisoned to make a mistake!"
Chapter 400 - 397: Even an Electric Fan Cant Blow as Much as You Can!
As soon as the words fell, Ye Huan''s lips turned up in a smile, and then he stepped into the room.
Zhang Song saw this and followed him inside.
"Do not touch his body, or the poison will invade you, and your fate will be the same as his." Inside the room, Jiang Jinfan coldly reminded the Liu Family members.
The younger members of the Liu Family immediately retreated like avoiding a gue god.
Liu Tianyun was copsed on the floor by the bed, covering her face and crying loudly.
Since seeing the tragic death of Liu Aimin, her tears could not stop flowing.
Purple-ck blood stained the entire bedding and sheets ck; inside, Liu Aimin''s whole body appeared purple-ck, with a faintyer of purple-ck blood beads on the skin''s surface. The blood flowing from the seven orifices was also purple-ck, his mouth agape, eyes almost bulging out...
"Step aside, I''ll save him." Ye Huan squeezed through the crowd and approached the bed.
Seeing the state of Liu Aimin''s death, he furrowed his brows slightly, but only slightly.
Liu Tianyun felt a burst of joy upon hearing this.
She had witnessed Ye Huan perform outstanding medical skills, pulling Qin Ya back from the brink of death!
Although she didn''t quite believe Ye Huan''s medical skills could surpass the national physician''s, she had witnessed too many miracles he created.
She wiped her tears, stood up, and looked directly at Ye Huan, "You... you can really save my grandfather?"
"Nonsense, otherwise, why would I stand out? Got nothing better to do?" Ye Huan replied irritably, but it brought an inexplicable sense of reassurance to Liu Tianyun''s heart.
"Ridiculous!"
Beside them, Liu Dandan, who had long been dissatisfied with this rustic son-inw, blocked Ye Huan and sneered, "Even the national physician head Jiang Jinfan couldn''t save him, and you think you can?"
"I can." Ye Huan''s answer was just two words.
This elicited a round of sneers from the Liu Family juniors.
Who was Jiang Jinfan? A presence capable of outwitting King Yama!
Who was Ye Huan? At most, an uncouth hick from some strange vige nobody knows about.
Jiang Jinfan couldn''t save him, and he can?
Liu Dandan snorted, "Ye Huan, marrying into my Liu Family, marrying my daughter Liu Tianyun is quite something. But I advise you, don''t get so full of yourself that you don''t know your own limits. Jiang Lao is Huaxia''s leading national physician, with transcendent medical skills, and you dare brag that you can save someone he couldn''t? Aren''t you afraid of losing face?"
Her words, besides mocking Ye Huan''s overconfidence, also straightforwardly praised Jiang Jinfan as Huaxia''s leading national physician, trying to curry favor with him.
If she could befriend or gain the goodwill of the national physician, she would have the capital to brag and her status could rise as well.
"I think you''re saying this just to show off in front of everyone."
"Ye Huan, you really are an ungrateful wretch!"
"Liu Aimin at least elevated your status, taking you from a nobody with no background or backing to bing the Prince Consort of the Liu Family, marrying a woman countless men dream of, my daughterLiu Tianyun."
"And you? Just to show off, you''re preparing to treat the already deceased Liu Aimin who awaits burial? This is desecrating his body, showing disrespect to his spirit in heaven, understand!"
Liu Dandan''s words were relentless.
She had initially thought Liu Tianyun could at least marry into a third-tier wealthy family in the Capital City, bing the wife of a third-tier young master, elevating her own motherly status.
As a result, a marriage contract from Liu Aimin directly married Liu Tianyun to the rustic Ye Huan, shattering her dreams of climbing the socialdder.
Initially, she could have at least be the mother-inw of a third-tier young master in the Capital City; now, her son-inw was a rustic bumpkin with no background!
She already found Ye Huan extremely unpleasant, so she showed him no face under everyone''s gaze.
"Mom, you misunderstood Ye Huan; he really wants to save Grandpa, and Ye Huan''s medical skills are very advanced. Since he said that, he must have a way to bring Grandpa back to life!" Liu Tianyun spoke up to defend Ye Huan. V*is#it- My V*i^rtua*l L$i%b!ra*ry@ Em!pire- (*M!V-+LE%MP@-&YR^)@ for mo+re.&
Liu Dandan looked pained and disappointed, "Tianyun, how can you just follow the person you''ve married to? Didn''t you initially oppose this marriage too? Are you really developing feelings for this poor kid now!?"
Liu Tianyun''s face turned crimson.
Developing feelings?
That seemed to underestimate her. Her feelings for Ye Huan were a deep and enduring love umted over a dozen, even twenty years, though not yet expressed.
Seeing Liu Tianyun like this, how could Liu Dandan not realize she really has "followed the person she''s married to"?
For a moment, her heart ached even more.
How did she end up with such a useless daughter?
Given a beautiful face and good figure, yet she doesn''t know how to use them!
Not only failing to secure a proper young master for her to bask in glory, but even developing feelings for this rustic Ye Huan...
Honestly, it would''ve been better if she died outside back then!
Liu Dandan''s eyes turned cold, yet she stepped aside with a sneer, "Aren''t you going to show off? Go ahead, let the whole Liu Family, let my daughter see what you''re really made of. iming you can save someone even the national physician couldn''t? Laughable, nothing blows better than you!"
With that, she crossed her arms, stepping aside.
Her purpose in letting Ye Huan take action was to make Liu Tianyun see through Ye Huan and realize howughable he was!
After all, in her n, Liu Tianyun would soon have to offer herself to "that young master," win his favor, and in doing so, allow her, the mother, to be a noblewoman in the Capital City, entering high society.
If Liu Tianyun had another man in her heart, the young master wouldn''t be happy...
"Old man, give me a hand."
Chapter 401 - 398: National Physician: "Master above, your disciple bows to you!!!
It''s hard to imagine that someone would make the top national doctor of Huaxia serve as their assistant.
But Brother Huan did just that.
Because Jiang Jinfu, as Huaxia''s national doctor, had the qualifications to do so.
"..."
The whole ce fell silent.
Jiang Jinfu frowned and asked, "My young friend, this person exhibits all symptoms that are beyond cure, and currently has no vital signs. I, an old man, have no way to save him. Can you?"
Ye Huan crossed from Liu Tianyun''s side to the bed and nodded, "I can. Hurry ande over to assist me with the acupuncture."
Jiang Jinfu astonishinglyplied, taking out a needle box from his bag and walking over.
As long as there was a chance to save the patient, even if it was only 0.0001 percent, he would try. He didn''t mind ying the assistant to a junior.
A doctor should take saving lives as their duty and bring benefits to the world.
If he didn''t have this resolve, he wouldn''t have grown to the height of the third national doctor.
Ye Huan was satisfied.
"Zu Sanguo."
"Bai Hui."
"Jing Ming."
"Tian Zhu."
"Zhu Gu."
"Ni Ming."
"..."
The names of the acupoints were called out one after another, and Jiang Jinfu cooperated well, inserting the silver needle into the acupoints on Liu Aimin''s body designated by Ye Huan.
Ye Huan, on the other hand, assisted by inserting three toothpicks in a tripod formation just a few millimeters beside the silver needles each time Jiang Jinfu inserted a needle.
The precision of it startled Jiang Jinfu.
Moreover...
From Ye Huan''s method of inserting toothpicks a few millimeters around the silver needles, Jiang Jinfu seemed to think of something, and his mind trembled.
"Don''t get distracted, Ling Xu." Ye Huan said.
Jiang Jinfu swallowed hard, nodded, andplied, inserting the silver needle into Liu Aimin''s Ling Xu acupoint.
Both of them were very serious.
Liu Chuanzhi looked slightly anxious and nced at Liu Dandan.
Liu Dandan shook her head sarcastically, as if to say: What are you panicking about? Do you really think this young man can bring Liu Aimin back to life?
Liu Chuanzhi: "..."
His eyebrows rxed, and he calmed his mind.
If not even the top national doctor Jiang Jinfu could save Liu Aimin, this ignorant young man from god-knows-which vige could solve the problem?
Serious now?
It''s probably just for show, bet he''s panicking inside.
Not only Liu Chuanzhi thought this way, but so did the Liu family''s younger generation.
"Could this guy be mentally challenged? Liu Aimin is long dead, and he''s still treating him. Does he really think he can bring the dead back to life?"
"And asking Mr. Jiang to assist him, clearly overestimating himself. Mr. Jiang should have known better than to believe this kid''s words and y assistant for him."
"What do you know, Mr. Jiang is just too virtuous as a doctor. Even if the chance of reviving a patient is slim, he would spare no effort. It''s just unfortunate that Liu Aimin is probably already reincarnated by now. How could he possibly be saved?"
"Exactly, Mr. Jiang even said he couldn''t deal with the poison Liu Aimin was affected by; does this kid think having Mr. Jiang assist him can dispel the poison and save him?"
"How dare he act like a big shot, having Mr. Jiang lower his status to assist him, this kid must be asking for trouble."
"Exactly, and Liu Tianyun dares to let this boy desecrate grandpa''s corpse. Won''t she understand what propriety is until we give her a taste of our fists?"
The younger generation of the Liu family exchanged nces, all with smiles on their faces.
They could not wait for Liu Aimin to pass on and reincarnate, so why would they care if Ye Huan was desecrating Liu Aimin''s corpse? Note from the editor: Always check * for corrections.
What they needed was a reason!
A reason to vent their anger on Liu Tianyun, to show her the harsh reality of fists and ps, to teach her what propriety is.
"Poof!"
Suddenly, a sound of sttering blood was heard.
The younger generation of the Liu family looked over and immediately rejoiced.
Liu Aimin''s corpse sat up, all the needles and toothpicks were ejected from his body, and nearly all the blood in his body was spewed out, staining the entire bed ck.
"Ha, mess it up, didn''t you?"
"And you talked about saving someone even Mr. Jiang couldn''t? The boasting is louder than a fan blowing!"
"Today, we''ll make you and your wife understand the consequences of deceiving Mr. Jiang and insulting grandpa''s corpse!"
The younger generation of the Liu family cursed as they rolled up their sleeves.
Liu Dandan folded her arms and exchanged a gloating nce with Liu Chuanzhi, both smiling mockingly.
"Thud."
A sudden sound of something falling to the ground paused Liu Dandan and Liu Chuanzhi''s malicious smiles, directing their gaze to the sound source...
The younger generation of the Liu family was stunned, turning their gaze to the sound source...
The next scene left their eyes wide open!
Jiang Jinfu knelt on the ground, his face and eyes filled with immense shock, and he solemnly kowtowed to Ye Huan!
"Bang!!!"
After the kowtow, Jiang Jinfu still did not lift his head.
His voice was full of pleading and sincerity:
"Master above, ept a bow from your disciple!!!"
Chapter 402 - 399: Jinfu Fist Technique? Jinfu Fist Technique!
"..."
The entire room fell silent as a grave...
What is happening???
Master, please ept my bow as your disciple???
Oh my gosh, what is happening here!
The esteemed third national healer of Huaxia, now the head of national healers, actually... actually wants to be a disciple?
To whom?
Who has the capability to be the master of the head of national healers?
Everyone slowly shifted their gaze upwards...
Ultimately, it settled in front of Jiang Jinfu, on Ye Huan...
"Boom!"
Everyone felt as if they were struck by lightning, their minds went nk.
Liu Tianyun was also greatly shocked, but somewhat better than the others.
The head of national healers, Jiang Jinfu, actually... actually wants to be a disciple of Ye Huan?
Why!
Did I see it wrong!
Everyone rubbed their eyes, thinking they might have seen it wrong.
But when they opened their eyes again, they knew... it wasn''t a mistake!
The head of national healers, Jiang Jinfu, really knelt down to Ye Huan to be a disciple!
Oh my gosh, how is this possible, it must be fake!
Liu Dandan''s eyes were wide open, filled with disbelief, as she leaned down and asked with trembling lips, "Master Jiang... Jiang, did you... did you mistake something, you... you want to be a disciple of Ye Huan?"
"That''s right!"
"Master''s medical skill surpasses mine by many times!"
"Your family''s old master, under the attack of toxins, hadpletely lost signs of life, I had no way to handle this poison or the fatal symptoms it caused, but when Master took action..."
"All these toxins werepletely cleared!"
"The symptoms were alsopletely resolved!"
"Old Master Liu, came back to life!"
"Please, Master, ept me as your disciple, ept my bow!"
While Jiang Jinfu spoke with extreme excitement, he raised his head again, and kowtowed heavily.
In the Shennong Medical Canon of Huaxia, a technique is recorded that can overturn destiny "Heaven and Earth Resurrection Acupuncture Technique."
It is said that when this technique is performed, even King Yama would yield three steps back!
But this is an acupuncture technique that has been lost for a hundred years, or even longer!
Jiang Jinfu never thought that one day he would be able to witness someone performing this technique with his own eyes.
Using one needle as the lead, three needles as support, it mobilizes the major meridians, circtes the qi and blood,pletes a full cycle, and revives the energy channels...
He recognized the acupuncture technique performed by Ye Huan!
That was indeed the "Heaven and Earth Resurrection Acupuncture Technique"!
He saw it, but it doesn''t mean others had the insight to recognize it.
"Master Jiang, you... you must be mistaken, my... my father hasn''te back to life at all!" Liu Dandan said, pointing to Liu Aimin, whose body had sat up but his head was tilted lifelessly over the bed''s edge with no signs of life.
A toothpick made her realize that Jiang Jinfu wasn''t mistaken!
"Whoosh!"
Ye Huan flicked out a toothpick, which pierced directly into Liu Aimin''s philtrum...
"Puff"
Another mouthful of ck blood was spat out.
Liu Aimin suddenly opened his eyes, his eyeballs almost bulging out of his sockets.
"Oh my gosh, is this a resurrection!!!"
Many people were scared out of their wits.
Liu Aimin, whose skin was purple-ck, suddenly opened his eyes, his eyeballs almost bulging out, which was quite unsettling!
But the next scene made them no longer panic, but instead made them tremble with shock all over.
Visibly, Liu Aimin''s purple-ck skin gradually "faded", turning to a normal yellow.
Only, the color was very pale, one could say it was yellow, but more so, it was an ashen white, as Liu Aimin''s body was extremely blood-deprived.
After the ck entirely faded from his body, Liu Aimin''s eyes returned to normal, and then he heavily copsed back on the bed.
"Grandpa!" Liu Tianyun eximed, rushing forward in a cry of surprise and joy.
"Tianyun, you... why are you here, and me... what happened to me, why am I so tired?" Liu Aimin''s voice was extremely weak.
"Grandpa, if you''re tired... just rest more, don''t talk." Liu Tianyun was weeping with joy.
Liu Aimin was utterly confused, turning his head to look to the side.
Why are there so many people?
And why is the bed full of ck blood?
Seeing Ye Huan, he wore a look of delight and was just about to speak.
Ye Huan blinked, signaling him.
Liu Aimin nodded, not speaking out.
"Stand up, I don''t take disciples." Ye Huan said, looking at Jiang Jinfu who was kneeling on the ground.
"Master, if you don''t ept me, I''ll kneel here until I die!"
Jiang Jinfu''s tone was extremely resolute, and his gaze was very firm.
Ye Huan couldn''t help but feel a wave of exasperation wash over him, saying, "Let''s talkter. Please stand up first. There are too many people here; it''s not appropriate."
"I will strictly follow the master''s orders." As long as Ye Huan relented, Jiang Jinfu''s face was filled with excitement, as if thinking, "I''m one step closer to bing the master''s disciple, how wonderful!"
"..."
The room once again plunged into an eerie silence.
Everyone from the Liu Family had their eyes wide open, mouths agape enough to fit arge stone, their eyes and faces showing an incredibly intense look of disbelief, even twitching at the corners of their mouths.
What was going on, was Liu Aimin really...really brought back to life by Ye Huan!?
What was going on, in such a situation earlier, Liu Aimin hadpletely..pletely lost all signs of life, he was dead!
For a person dered dead, could Ye Huan, this kid, really bring him back!? Impossible!
They were unwilling to believe it, yet it had undeniably happened!
He was already dead, on the verge of reincarnation, yet Liu Aimin truly...truly "came back to life"!
All because of this poor kid from the countryside, where did he gain such power, goodness!
Someone that Jiang Jinfu, the top Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor in Huaxia, couldn''t save, he really could!
No, it was someone Jiang Jinfu couldn''t "resurrect," but he could "resurrect"!
And he could even make Jiang Jinfu, someone revered by the global medicalmunity, kneel and seek his tutge in front of so many people!? Why?
Why is this happening!?
It can only be because, as Jiang Jinfu himself said, Ye Huan''s medical skills far surpass his by several times!
If Liu Aimin, who was dead, could be "resurrected"...
If Jiang Jinfu was waging an intellectual and courageous battle with King Yama...
Ye Huan would be directly rewriting the life and death records of King Yama!
Making a figure like Jiang Jinfu his assistant...he really is qualified!
There was even talk of using excuses like deceiving Elder Jiang and desecrating Grandfather''s body to approach and assault this couple with the husband-and-wife punching technique.
Now, not only did he not deceive Elder Jiang, but he really "resurrected" Grandfather, which is absurd!
"Grandfather, since you... you''re fine now, then... then this grandson will take his leave..."
The younger generation of the Liu Family, for fear that their previous, ungrateful words would reach Liu Aimin''s ears and displease him, or even bring punishment, showed awkward expressions as they prepared to leave.
Among them, Liu Dandan and Liu Chuanzhi were not only shocked on their faces but also slightly panicked, eager to depart.
Liu Aimin had no idea what had happened and could only nod in consent.
But one person called out to them!
"Stop right there for the old man!"
Jiang Jinfu''s stern shout halted everyone''s steps.
Then, he scanned all the young descendants of the Liu Family with a dark expression, sending a chill down their spines.
"Elder Jiang, you... what are you doing?" the younger ones asked awkwardly.
"Just now, during the treatment of the old master by my master and I, you people... were truly barking non-stop."
Jiang Jinfu''s words were almost saying that these young ones were certain gatekeeping quadrupeds.
If someone else had insulted them like this, they would surely have been furious.
But who was the person before them?
The top doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Huaxia!
Just with his medical skills, who wouldn''t want to associate with him?
Take those powerful families in the Capital City for instance, they have influence, money, and power, but what of it? Alwys r֧d t th sur֡V@L@YR.
Everyone faces aging, illness, and death, but with the help of a divine healer, this process can be prolonged for a very long time.
So, if Jiang Jinfu waved his hand, all the families from the Capital City would undoubtedly scramble to curry favor with him.
Acting tough in his presence was digging their own grave!
"Elder Jiang, we... we were just afraid... afraid that kid would deceive... deceive you..."
"Even I, the old man, hadn''t spoken. Did you need to be barking non-stop from the sidelines?" Jiang Jinfu said with a cold face, his gaze over the young Liu family members still extremely dark, "Do you remember what was said during your incessant barking?"
The foreheads of the young generation of the Liu Family were soaked with cold sweat, too afraid to respond.
What a joke, during the "incessant barking" earlier, they had cursed Ye Huan from head to toe.
And now? Jiang Jinfu, the top Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor, was begging to be Ye Huan''s disciple!
Asking them to repeat those words, even with borrowed courage, they wouldn''t dare.
"Do you remember? Speak!" Jiang Jinfu''s voice was somber.
Still, no one dared to answer.
"Don''t remember? Then it''s fine, I''ll help you recall."
"You dared to insult my master Jiang Jinfu, insult my mistress Jiang Jinfu, and even attempted to assault them?"
"A punching technique? A p? Let me tell you, I don''t have a husband-and-wife punching technique, but..."
"I do have a Jinfu punching technique!"
After giving them a scolding, Jiang Jinfu clenched his fist with his hand, and at great speed, gave one punch to each of the young Liu members.
Then raised his hand.
The ps fell like a violent storm, in just one minute, the thirty-plus people present were beaten ck and blue, noses bleeding profusely...
The screams like pigs being ughtered were incessant...
The scene was downright gory...
Chapter 403 - 400: Both surnamed Ye, why is there such a big difference!?
Including Liu Dandan and Liu Chuanzhi, not a single junior of the Liu Family dared to resist. They were all severely reprimanded until they cried and pleaded not to disrespect Ye Huan or Liu Tianyun again, before they finally fled the Liu Family mansion in embarrassment.
...
Liu Family mansion, parking lot.
"What are you doing!"
"Whyplicate things!"
"Liu Aimin was long dead. If you hadn''t stopped Ye Huan from treating Liu Aimin, this wouldn''t have happened!"
In the parking lot, inside a white Mercedes worth over a million, Liu Chuanzhi furiously scolded Liu Dandan.
With a bruised face and a menacingly fierce look, he was terrifying in his anger.
"I... I didn''t know such a change would ur." Liu Dandan, with nosebleeds and regretful, bit her lip and angrily said, "Let me ask you, wasn''t that poison imed to be from the dark web, supposed to be so deadly that no one could survive it?"
"We saw Liu Aimin''s death with our own eyes, and you were there too. The poison was so potent that even the national doctor Jiang Jinfu was helpless!"
Liu Chuanzhi pped the steering wheel angrily, "It''s all that kid Ye Huan, too strange! The person national doctors can''t save, he can. What''s the deal with your son-inw?"
"I don''t know either."
Liu Dandan frowned tightly.
She allowed Ye Huan the chance to treat Liu Aimin to let Liu Tianyun see through the facade of this "boastful" rural man, but who knew this would happen!
She just couldn''t fathom how Ye Huan, a kid from the countryside, could possess such extraordinary medical skills?
Even Jiang Jinfu, the head of the national doctors, was willing to be his disciple!
If she had known about Ye Huan''s abilities earlier, she would have hurried to ingratiate herself. How could she have been so mean to him?
Liu Chuanzhi''s face grew increasingly displeased, clearly unsatisfied with Liu Dandan''splication that led to unexpected changes.
Taking a deep breath, he said in a cold voice:
"It doesn''t matter now; what''s done is done, and there''s no point in handling it anymore. What we need to do now... is remedy the situation!"
"''That young master'' is about to ascend the throne of the Yu Family, and our time is... running out."
"We have onest chance. This time we must kill that old Liu Aimin and take full control of the Liu Family into our hands."
"But..." Liu Dandan gritted her teeth, "With Ye Huan around, how can we poison Liu Aimin to death..."
"As the ancients said, doctors can''t heal themselves. When that kid treated Liu Aimin, he had help from the national doctors. I refuse to believe that when I''m poisoning him, the national doctors can still assist."
Listening to Liu Chuanzhi''s profound words, Liu Dandan''s eyes gleamed, "Are you suggesting that..."
"Yes." Liu Chuanzhi nodded, his mouth twisting into a sinister smile, "I bought a total of 500 grams of poison, gave Liu Aimin 50 grams, and we all saw his gruesome condition. If it weren''t for that strange kid Ye Huan, Liu Aimin would have been long gone. This time... I''m nning to give Ye Huan 400 grams to consume. If he doesn''t die from it, I''ll take his surname. Thest 50 grams will be left for that old Liu Aimin."
"Let''s do it then. It''s my fault forplicating thingsst time. I won''t do such a foolish thing again."
"Killing off that kid Ye Huan would also make it easier to win favor with ''that young master'' by giving him Tianyun."
Liu Dandan agreed to poison Ye Huan, though her tone was rather "reluctant."
Liu Chuanzhi''s face turned unsatisfied again, seemingly understanding why she felt "reluctant," he coldly reminded:
"No matter how strong Ye Huan''s medical skills are, they will never bring the benefits ''that young master'' will bring us..."
"If we can take control of the Liu Family before ''that young master'' ascends, leading the Liu Family to be his confidant, the Liu Family would undoubtedly rise to the top!"
"By then, the Liu Family''s settling in the Capital City and bing a third-tier family is just around the corner. You and I will be the helmsmen of a third-tier family in the Capital City, with a single stomp; other ces in Huaxia would tremble!"
"I know, no need to keep lecturing me!" Liu Dandan snapped as she got out of the car and mmed the door heavily.
Her face was gloomy.
If Ye Huan were just a nobody, with no background and just a strange-named bumpkin from the vige, it wouldn''t matter if he died, and she wouldn''t feel any sorrow.
But things are different now. Ye Huan demonstrated extraordinary medical skills, so much so that even Jiang Jinfu wants to be his disciple.
If they don''t kill him, she, Liu Dandan, could be the national doctor''s mother-inw.
With that title, wherever she went, people would follow to curry favor.
But sadly...
"That young master" is indeed from the top-tier family in the Capital Citythe young master of the Yu Family, Yu Beixuan!
In Liu Dandan and Liu Chuanzhi''s n, after killing Liu Aimin, they would present a forged will stating that Liu Dandan and Liu Chuanzhi would jointly take charge of the Liu Family.
Then, both Liu Dandan would lead the Liu Family into Yu Beixuan''s embrace, assisting him in taking over the Yu Family and bing the new patriarch of the Yu Family.
With such achievements, Yu Beixuan, the new patriarch of the Yu Family, would surely nurture the Liu Family, even letting them settle in the Capital City, making the leap to a third-tier family not a problem.
Your support at * keeps the series going.
By then, as the head of the Liu Family, Liu Dandan would step into the real elite circle of Huaxia and be a Capital City socialite.
Of course... Liu Dandan also had her own ns, which involved presenting the gorgeously figured and beautiful Liu Tianyun to Yu Beixuan.
Even though Liu Tianyun married Ye Huan and was no longer pure, Liu Dandan believed with Liu Tianyun''s looks and figure, bing Yu Beixuan''s concubine, or at the very least his secret lover, wouldn''t be a problem.
This way, Liu Dandan could be the mother-inw of the new patriarch of the first-tier family, Yu Family, in the Capital City!
With such a status, Liu Dandan wouldn''t be just any other socialite in the Capital City; she would be the socialite among socialites!
Dominant authority!
This is something even with the national doctor as a disciple, Ye Huan couldn''t provide her!
After all, Ye Huan, with all his medical prowess, didn''t have a powerful background to let Liu Dandan and the entire Liu Family soar to great heights.
Compared to being pursued relentlessly, Liu Dandan preferred to be the socialite among the Capital City''s socialites, and more importantly, be the mother-inw of the new patriarch of the Yu Family to acquire immense power!
If that''s the case, she could only curry favor with young master Yu Beixuan and get rid of Ye Huan!
However, killing Ye Huan meant losing the chance to be the national doctor''s mother-inw, s!
There''s nothing to be done; gainse with losses!
"Ye Huan, if you go down, me yourself for being capable yetcking background, unable to give your mother-inw, namely me, Liu Dandan, the supreme glory and wealth..."
"Tianyun should belong to someone with both ability and background, like young master Yu, not you!"
After a wave of regret, as if recalling something, a vicious glint shed in Liu Dandan''s eyes.
Not long ago, a young master suddenly returned to the Capital City, reportedly the son of Ye Tiance and Lilu, the Crown Prince of Huaxia!
This Crown Prince, at the Zhong Family courtyard, killed the patriarch Zhong Wuya on the spot and pped seven other patriarchs into the ICU!
Among them, the patriarch of the Yu Family suffered the worst injury, turned into a vegetative state by a single p from the Crown Prince.
Thus, the younger generation of the Yu Family began intense infighting for the position of the patriarch, in which young master Yu Beixuan undeniably had the best chance to ascend.
But this opportunity to vie for the position of the patriarch was indirectly given to him by the Crown Prince. If not for the Crown Prince pping the patriarch of the Yu Family into a vegetative state, where would they have the chance topete for the new patriarch position?
Both surnamed Ye, how could the difference be so vast!?
Liu Dandan spat out the window in displeasure.
One guy knows a bit of medicine but has no background, just an out-of-the-ce name, andes from the vige.
And the other?
Son of Ye Tiance and Lilu!
The Crown Prince of Huaxia!
Destroying the first-tier Zhong Family, pping the other seven first-tier family patriarchs into the ICU, and these first-tier families didn''t dare to utter a word!
Even the seven first-tier families, after facing retaliation from the Ye and Lilu families, sent people to kneel and beg for mercy overnight!
s!
The gap...is toorge!
That''s the Crown Prince of Huaxia!
How can the gap be so huge though both are surnamed Ye!
How did she end up with such an ipetent son-inw?!
If he knew better, born into the Ye family in the Capital City to be the Crown Prince, wouldn''t she, Liu Dandan, be the "Empress Dowager" of Huaxia?
The more she thought about it, the angrier Liu Dandan became, wishing Ye Huan would die sooner.
With him gone, she could have a particrly promising son-inw!
The new patriarch of the first-tier family Yu in the Capital City!
Much better than that rural Ye Huan!
Chapter 404 - 401 B-max
Liu Family Mansion, Top Floor.
On the bed in the room, the sheets and bedding stained with dark purple blood were all reced with clean ones as instructed by Zhou Yuan''an.
The room''s floor and ceiling were also cleaned thoroughly, giving apletely renewed feeling.
"Wretches, wretches!!!"
After learning what happened from Zhou Yuan''an and Jiang Jinfu, Liu Aimin was so furious that his face turned red, almost fainting on the spot.
"Grandpa, don''t be like this!"
"Your body is still weak, you need to rest!"
Liu Tianyun hurriedly supported Liu Aimin, helping him lie back down slowly.
"Yes, old man, you need to rest. The toxins in your body haven''t beenpletely cleared. If you get angry, it could trigger the poison, the consequences would be unimaginable," Ye Huan reminded.
"What? The toxins are notpletely cleared, then... is there still danger?" Liu Tianyun asked anxiously.
"As long as you rest and cooperate with the treatment, you will be fully recovered in seven days, but during this time you must avoidrge emotional fluctuations."
"Master, the remaining toxins in Liu Aimin''s body won''t trouble you, I''ll take care of him these days to help dispel the toxins." At the side, Jiang Jinfu volunteered.
Ye Huan nodded in agreement.
The toxicity of the toxins in Liu Aimin''s body had beenpletely suppressed, and in a very small amount. Jiang Jinfu, as the top national doctor, handling these residual toxins shouldn''t be a problem.
Liu Tianyun breathed a sigh of relief, then said, "Grandpa, did you hear that? You need to rest and refrain from getting angry."
"How can I not be angry, those wretches... they''re all ingrates!"
As Liu Aimin spoke, he hit the bedding with a face full of self-reproach.
The younger generation of the Liu Family ended up like thisrgely due to his busy work in his youth, neglecting to discipline them properly.
After a deep sigh, he looked at Ye Huan and Jiang Jinfu, "Xiao Huan, Old Jiang, this time... thank you both very much..."
"Hey, hey, hey, Old Liu, don''t mess up the seniority!"
"Calling my master Xiao Huan and calling me Old Jiang, what kind of titles are those? You should call me Xiao Jiang instead..."
Jiang Jinfu said seriously.
Liu Aimin: "..."
Calling Jiang Jinfu Xiao Jiang?
What a joke, Jiang Jinfu is a national doctor, this would be too disrespectful to him.
Moreover... Jiang Jinfu looks quite a bit older than him. Calling him Xiao Jiang would be messing up the seniority!
At the side, Ye Huan, his face full of ck lines, changed the topic, saying:
"Old gentleman, the poison this time is colorless and tasteless but is dozens of times more lethal than the venom of the king of snakes, the ck mamba."
"Once this deadly poison enters the human body, it first blocks the body''s pain sensations, then attacks the body''s organs. The poisoned person will fall into a state of false death within ten minutes, without any feeling."
"The reason it''s a false death and not real death is because this poison has a natural defect, which is that it causes rtively little damage to the central nervous system, requiring six hours or more to destroy itpletely and cause actual death."
"But there are fewer than three people in the world who can stop the poison from attacking the central nervous system, so... getting poisoned by it is almost surely fatal!"
"This poison is known overseas as B-max."
"As for the one who poisoned you, they''re probably within the Liu Family."
B-max?
Liu Tianyun had never heard this term before but from Ye Huan''s introduction and seeing Liu Aimin''s "death state" at first nce, she realized just how potent this poison was.
Within ten minutes, you would fall into a false death without any sensation?
The poison then attacks the central nervous system, and only three people in the world can stop it?
Ye Huan is clearly one of those three!
As for Ye Huan''s spection, Liu Tianyun also highly agreed.
Among the younger generation of the Liu Family, and even the middle generation, aside from herself, Liu Tianyun, there wasn''t a single person who wasn''t an ingrate, all hoping for Liu Aimin''s death.
She just didn''t expect that they would actually dare to poison Liu Aimin,mitting such an outrageous, immoral act.
Who could it be?
While amazed at Ye Huan''s medical skills, Liu Tianyun furrowed her brows, starting to ponder who was most likely to poison Liu Aimin...
At this moment, Ye Huan continued to speak, saying:
"Old gentleman, the reason I could save you this time has a lot to do with timing because your central nervous system hadn''t beenpletely attacked by the poison. Had I been ten minutester, you would have been beyond saving."
"Since the poisoner failed this time, they will inevitably take further action. Next time, if I am not here, or if I am dyed, you could be in great danger."
"So... you must quickly eliminate those ingrates who wish you harm."
"Actually, you should already have some idea of who the poisoners are, right?"
Ye Huan said this deliberately emphasizing the plural "are."
Liu Aimin was startled, then his brows furrowed.
Before "dying," he had dinner with two people.
His daughter Liu Dandan. Yoursupporton*keepsthisseriesgoing.
His eldest grandson Liu Chuanji.
But he doesn''t want to, really doesn''t want to suspect his closest rtives without conclusive evidence...
"I... don''t know." Liu Aimin sighed.
"Don''t know or don''t want to suspect?" Ye Huan chuckled softly.
Liu Aimin was silent.
Ye Huan decided to do a good deed to the end and said amusingly, "Old Liu, if you don''t want to suspect, then tomorrow I''ll let you see with your own eyes, which wolf in sheep''s clothing poisoned you, but before that, you need to cooperate with me..."
After these words, Ye Huan leaned down, and spoke with Liu Aimin a few more words.
The voice was very low, only the two of them could hear it.
After hearing it, Liu Aimin sighed and nodded his head...
Chapter 405 - 402: Divorce? Going Above and Beyond!
"Ye Huan, you already know who the traitor poisoning Grandpa is, right?"
After leaving the Liu Family residence and getting back into the Rolls-Royce Phantom with Ye Huan, Liu Tianyun asked softly.
"I know, I figured it out earlier." Ye Huan replied.
"Who is it?"
"I''m not telling you."
Liu Tianyun was taken aback, then gritted her teeth, "Why can''t you tell me? Just tell me."
Ye Huan nced at her and then said, "You''ll know tomorrow."
Earlier, when he was walking through the top-floor corridor of the Liu Family residence, he noticed that two individuals in the crowd reacted differently, and this confirmed to him who the culprit behind Liu Aimin''s poisoning was.
Liu Dandan!
Liu Chuanzhi!
These two, when Jiang Jinfu was diagnosing Liu Aimin, had noticeably displeased expressions, simr to other Liu Family juniors.
When Jiang Jinfu and Zhang Song came out of the room to announce Liu Aimin''s "death," all the Liu Family juniors, including these two, showed signs of joy.
This was fine too.
But the two were different in one aspect!
They sighed in relief!
Upon hearing about Liu Aimin''s death, they sighed in relief.
Why would they be relieved?
It''s not hard to guess; the two didn''t expect the national healer to personallye and diagnose Liu Aimin after they had poisoned him.
The top five national healers in Huaxia stand at the pinnacle of the global medical field, and having a national healer intervene naturally made them tense, fearing the healer might save Liu Aimin.
But what happened?
The national healer was also helpless against the poison and announced Liu Aimin''s death, which brought them delighted relief.
My Virtual Library Empire (*) appreciates your readership at the source.
Achieving their goal without danger, their purpose was fulfilled.
But they never expected there would be someone with medical skills superior to the national healer, who could "revive" Liu Aimin and ruin their ns.
As for why he didn''t tell Liu Tianyun
Liu Dandan is, after all, her mother, so it''s best to let her see the truth with her own eyes.
"Can''t you tell me now?"
Women''s curiosity is always strong, and Liu Tianyun is no exception.
Unfortunately, Ye Huan didn''t want to satisfy her curiosity and said directly: "No."
"Alright then..."
"But really, thank you so much. If it weren''t for you, Grandpa would surely have been killed by those traitors."
As Liu Tianyun expressed her gratitude, her face was also filled with anger towards those traitors.
"By the way, after we finish dealing with this matter, I''ll take you to meet my master." Ye Huan said casually.
"Okay."
...
After driving back to the Peni Lakefront, Ye Huan washed up and returned to his room.
Upon returning to the room, Brother Huan had a worried look on his face.
It''s difficult!
Sigh!
When Liu Dandan taunted him, she asked Liu Tianyun with a pained and heartbroken expression: "You''re not really falling for this kid, are you?"
Ye Huan originally thought Liu Tianyun would deny it on the spot.
Who knew her face would turn red!
Goodness, Brother Huan knew he was charming, but he didn''t expect his charm to be this overwhelming!
The ever "indifferent to men''s charm" Ice Queen CEO was actually captivated by his unintentional allure?
Sigh!
In the past, that would have been a good thing.
After all, Brother Huan wanted toplete the task given by the Dog Master, which was to conquer her and thus obtain the Dog Master''s martial arts secret.
But now?
Brother Huan no longer cares about any martial arts secrets; he just wants to retire in the countryside with Zhang Huimin, have two kids, work at sunrise and rest at sunset, and live the rest of his life leisurely.
But directly divorcing Liu Tianyun would certainly displease the Dog Master and might even cause him to be unhappy with Zhang Huimin, thinking she was a home wrecker who intervened in his disciple''s marriage.
Thus, it''s necessary for Liu Tianyun to propose the divorce on her own.
Liu Tianyun still owes Brother Huan a request, and Brother Huan ns to take her to see the Dog Master and then ask her to initiate the divorce.
Back in the day, Liu Tianyun would have been pleasantly surprised and readily agreed.
However
The direction in which things are developing isn''t quite right!
This Ice Queen seems genuinely interested in him?
It''s hard to deal with; if she stubbornly refuses this request...
Ye Huan became even more worried.
After worrying for a while, his expression and gaze gradually became firmer.
No!
In any case, Liu Tianyun must be made to propose the divorce!
Brother Huan has been nothing but kind and dutiful to her!
Tianyun International facing trouble?
Brother Huan intervenes and resolves it all!
Tianyun International facing danger from the Bai Family?
Brother Huan intervenes and directly eliminates the Bai Family!
As a husband, he has fulfilled all the responsibilities he should, repeatedly rescuing her from peril.
This time, retrieving Liu Aimin''s life from King Yama, Brother Huan has fulfilled the responsibility of a son-inw.
In the end, despite knowing who the traitorous poisoner was, Liu Aimin,cking decisive evidence, refrained from openly naming or eliminating them?
Ye Huan took action, doing a good deed to the end, and pledged to reveal the traitor''s true face to him tomorrow.
In fact, all Ye Huan needed to do was remind him to swiftly eliminate the traitor if he didn''t want to be poisoned again.
The reason for "meddling" is that Ye Huan wants to conclude with solving the problem Liu Family and Liu Aimin are facing with the traitor, to end thingspletely with Liu Tianyun!
A woman bearing thebel of "divorcee" is generally considered unsavory.
But Ye Huan, upon self-reflection, feels he has repaid what he owed, almost entirely in advance.
There is no longer any debt between him and Liu Tianyun.
It must end!
After taking her to see the Dog Master, he will immediately ask her to propose the divorce!
If she ys tricks and refuses?
Ye Huan believes that this Ice Queen, after years of navigating the business world, leading the well-reputed Tianyun International, should at least have some basic integrity.
If she truly refuses...
He will find a way to make her agree!
Even without Zhang Huimin, Brother Huan has had enough of Liu Tianyun''s foul temper, as stubborn as a stone in atrine!
Ye Huan nodded to himself, his thoughts firm.
Then, hey down with his head in his hands.
But just as he was about to fall asleep.
A phone call came in.
Seeing it was an unfamiliar number, Ye Huan raised an eyebrow.
Could it be another prank call?
Last time it was Ye Tiance''s: "I''m your father."
And once it was Lilo''s: "I''m your mother."
Ye Huan was curious to see what kind of prankster or oddball it was this time.
He answered the call.
His eyebrows shot up immediately.
"Hello?"
"Brother-inw? Haha, this is your big brother!"
"Liu Chuanzhi!"
Chapter 406 - 403: Liu Tianyuns Favor
Peni Lakefront, S-01, second floor bedroom.
Liu Tianyun had finished her bath and was sitting in the sheets, wearing a pink silk nightgown.
In her left hand, she held an old, yellowed photograph.
In her right hand was the marriage agreement signed by both of them.
Looking left, looking right.
She thought for a long, long time.
Thought about a lot, a lot.
At the Liu Family residence.
In the car.
After returning home.
In the bathroom.
Even now in bed, Liu Tianyun was recalling the series of events after Ye Huan appeared.
Looking back, only then did she realize how deep her misunderstandings about Ye Huan had been...
Take a few things for instance.
Always boasting, more than a fan can blow, louder than a fan?
No, he wasn''t boasting.
It''s just that the things he said sounded like boasting, soundedpletely impossible to achieve.
And the reality? Each "boast" that came from his mouth was turned into fact due to his abilities!
Uneducated and ipetent?
If he were truly uneducated and ipetent, how could he help Tianyun International navigate one challenge after another, how could hee up with so many business tricks, how could he possess skills more impressive than Jiang Jinfuu, the foremost national doctor?
Lewd wolf?
Two months ago, White Impermanence was defeated by Ye Huan, and Meiying achieved great business sess. That time I was overjoyed and got drunk.
After getting drunk, Ye Huan carried me home and put me in bed.
Yes, I was touched by Ye Huan, but his intentions were good.
Ye Huan was just concerned that leaving me at the restaurant might lead to idents or unexpected events, so he took me home out of safety considerations.
After realizing I''d been touched, I was furious and called Ye Huan a "lecher," which hurtful as it was.
Afterwards, I checked both my body and clothes.
Apart from drinking too much and feeling dizzy, there was no difort, and my clothes had no unnatural marks; the creases were very natural.
Only then did I know that Ye Huan hadn''t done anything inappropriate.
Liu Tianyun always wanted to apologize to Ye Huan for this matter, but she couldn''t find the right opportunity.
At the same time, Liu Tianyun knew her allure was strong enough to attract the hearts of any man.
But even when I was unconscious, Ye Huan didn''t do anything inappropriate.
How could such a person be a lewd wolf?
Moreover, Liu Tianyun didn''t mind if the person she had been yearning for, who is Ye Huan, was lewd towards her. Instead, a bit of lewdness could add happiness and fun to their marriage.
As long as Ye Huan wasn''t lewd towards other women, it wouldn''t be a problem.
No, as long as he wasn''t lewd towards any "new woman," it wouldn''t be a problem.
Yes, Liu Tianyun had figured it out.
At first, she was the one who let Ye Huan go, so she had to bear the consequences.
Just like Kagami Reina calling her "Master''s Wife," even if Kagami Reina had "Second Master''s Wife" or many more master''s wives, she would endure it.
As long as those women were not with Ye Huan for some ulterior motive, she was willing to try coexist peacefully with Ye Huan''s other women.
However, the women she could attempt to ept were only those who were with Ye Huan beforepleting the "Change Ye Huan n."
Those who were with him after changing Ye Huan did not count among them.
Liu Tianyun was also confident that after transforming Ye Huan, he wouldn''t pursue anything romantic with other women.
To change Ye Huan, Liu Tianyun wanted to transform him into the kind of man in her heart, who was family-oriented, tall and mighty, able to bring endless security, a formidable business figure that struck fear into his enemies, but at home could shower his wife with boundless love.
In fact, she was even willing to give up her career for Ye Huan, to be the woman behind him, responsible for taking care of the family, and remain beautiful at home.
Of course, all this was on the premise that all the casualness and a series of undesirable traits she thought Ye Huan currently had could be changed.
Liu Tianyun realized that she had indeed changed her view of Ye Huan a lot.
When did it start?
When he thwarted White Impermanence''s schemes, showcasing his extraordinary abilities, making her realize he wasn''t a worthless person?
When Ye Tiance confirmed for her that Ye Huan had lived in Spring Welfare Institute since childhood and that Ye Huan was the person she had been yearning for?
No.
It was when she was locked in the room of an underground base by Jiang Tiansha and he kicked open the door, approached her shivering self, and consoled her that it was all over, Jiang Tiansha was dead, bringing her endless security!
It was when Liu Aimin was in critical condition, he decisively took action, performing miraculous medical skills that shocked even the national doctors, making them beg to be his apprentices.
Only then did Liu Tianyun realize that this cheap husband of hers was truly responsible, capable, and could bring endless security, and he was also very handsome!
Only then did she realize that Ye Huan''s tall, handsome image was indeed somewhat simr to the person she had been yearning for in her mind!
"Bang... Bang... Bang..."
Liu Tianyun held her chest, her face slightly flushed.
The increasing heartbeat confirmed for her that she really was developing faint feelings for Ye Huan.
But this faint feeling was not enough to awaken the deep love buried in the depths of her heart for ten or twenty years.
She still needed to work hard, strive to change Ye Huan, change Ye Huan to the point where he could awaken that deep love deep in her heart.
Then, she would say that she was the "Snivel" from the welfare institute and stay with Ye Huan for a lifetime.
"Z."
With a sound falling.
The marriage agreement was torn in half by Liu Tianyun.
In her opinion, the agreement waspletely redundant for her.
Finally marrying the one she had missed for so long, and they would divorce two yearster? Not in this lifetime!
A billion breakup fee?
If Ye Huan wanted, she could transfer all her assets to him without hesitation!
The premise was not to break up!
What Liu Tianyun didn''t know was...
She didn''t want to break up, didn''t want to divorce.
But her husband was thinking about quickly finishing things, taking her back to the vige, and then divorcing!
What Liu Tianyun also didn''t know was...
She couldn''t change Ye Huan at all, but...
The deep love buried for twenty years in her heart would bepletely awakened by the current Ye Huan.
Of course, these are matters not far in the future...
As the saying goes, first abusing the husband feels good,ter chasing husband is like a funeral pyre!
While she was overthinking.
"Boom!"
The roar of a car engine came from downstairs, Liu Tianyun''s face immediately went cold, she stood up and gently pulled open the curtain.
The Rolls-Royce Phantom drove out of S-01''s courtyard. Brought to you by *.
Ye Huan going out sote, what else could he be doing other than meeting Zhang Huimin?
Liu Tianyun took a deep breath.
Even though she decided to coexist peacefully with Ye Huan''s other women, she still felt sour in her heart.
Wait no
Liu Tianyun slightly frowned.
Living in the same district, Zhang Huimin stayed in B-06, very close to S-01; even walking would only take a few minutes.
Going to B-06, why would you even need to drive?
Wasn''t it said that tomorrow he would show the true shape of the white-eyed wolf?
Probably going to handle business.
The sour feeling disappeared, and Liu Tianyun blushed.
She wanted to send Ye Huan a text saying e home early, be safe," but was too embarrassed.
After hesitating repeatedly
She iled her hands and feet on the bed a few times and gave up!
Blushing, she put down the phone and deleted the contents in the text message box.
No reason other than being too embarrassed!
It was hard to imagine that Liu Tianyun, known as the Ice Queen, could have such a girlish demeanor!
...
Celestial Sea City, Normandy Bathing Club.
In therge bath of a certainrge suite, the corner of Ye Huan''s mouth curled up, "Big brother, bringing me to such a cete at night, is it appropriate?"
Chapter 407 - 404: We come here with a learning attitude!
"Haha, you''ve been married to Tianyun for so long, and as your older brother, I haven''te to see you. I''m here to apologize," Liu Chuan Zhiughed heartily.
"Apologize? You don''t need toe to a ce like this for that, right? Big brother, are you trying to make me betray Tianyun..." Ye Huan said with a smirk.
"Hey, what kind of talk is that? It''s just some harmless amusement, nothing serious."
"After all, no matter how beautiful Tianyun is, as her husband, there wille a day when you get tired. Why note out from time to time to have some fun? It can refresh things. I''m sure even if Tianyun finds out, she''d understand."
"Besides, the reason we''re here is to learn. Learn about biological knowledge!"
"How are the girls here? Quite stunning, right?"
With a cigar in his mouth, Liu Chuan Zhi blew out a smoke ring and asked lewdly.
"Not bad, not bad indeed, haha." Ye Huan pretended to be oglingsciviously, his eyes sweeping over the ten striking club girls in the room.
Normandy Club truly lived up to its reputation as a well-known money pit in the Celestial Sea''s high society.
These ten candidate girls had appearances and figures that were top-tier; taking them outside, they''d easily be front-line supermodels.
Yet, Ye Huan''s gaze locked onto the woman farthest to the left among the ten.
That woman was desperately avoiding Ye Huan''s gaze, her head lowered.
Liu Chuan Zhi didn''t notice the woman''s odd behavior, but he did see Ye Huan''sscivious look, inwardly deriding him with a sneer.
Indeed, a country boy is just a country boy; skilled in medicine, but never seen the world.
Even with a woman as outstanding as Liu Tianyun, he still has thoughts for other women?
But who cares, as long as this country boy takes the bait, it''s fine.
Liu Chuan Zhi sneered subtly and signaled an old woman standing at the side of the ten girls, the madam.
The old woman discreetly nodded, walked to the left, and lifted the woman''s chin to raise her head.
But her eyes continued to avoid desperately, as if scared to meet Ye Huan''s gaze.
"Oh sir, this girl is new. You''ve seen her looks and figure; they''re really nice. Why not help her with a fresh start today?" The madam said suggestively.
"Very good, that sounds very good, haha!"
Ye Huan''s lustful demeanor once again made Liu Chuan Zhi look down on him.
Though feeling disdain, his face was full of approval, as heughed heartily:
"Brother-inw, tonight just enjoy yourself, have fun, and the expenses will be on me!"
"This way, it also counts as my apology, so don''t me me for not visiting you after you married Tianyun for so long, how about it? Haha!"
"Big brother, what are you saying? How could I possibly me you? You''re so good to me, bringing me here to find new fun so I won''t get tired of Tianyun. Knowing my low education, you brought me here to study biological knowledge. You''re so thoughtful for my and Tianyun''s marriage, so thoughtful for me, I only have gratitude for you!"
Ye Huan''s words were firm, his expression very serious.
Liu Chuan Zhi couldn''t help but smirk with an unnoticeable disdain.
This kid''s intelligence is just too low!
Consider your marriage with Liu Tianyun, I''m idle?
Bring you to find new fun?
Bring you to study biological knowledge?
I''m taking you to hell!
"It''s good that you think this way, Xiao Ye," Liu Chuan Zhi naturally wouldn''t reveal his thoughts. He chuckled insidiously, "Seems like you''re eager, go wait in the room. Once this girl is ready, you two can start learning."
"Haha, that''s very good, very good indeed!"
Ye Huanughed loudly as he stood up.
In therge suite with more than ten rooms, he randomly chose one, went in, and closed the door.
Listening to the "bang" sound of the door closing, Liu Chuan Zhi scoffed, then extinguished the cigarette butt, and waved his hand.
The madam nodded and fetched an expensive brandy bottle from the liquor cab outside the suite, poured the prepared transparent powder into it.
After shaking evenly a few times, she returned to the suite and handed the bottle to the club girl Ye Huan had his eyes on earlier, ordering: "Bring the drink to that sir, serve him well, don''t let him rush."
"Can I... Can I not go?" The woman pleaded. Part of a series hosted by My Virtual Library Empire (MV&LEMP&YR).
"Not go? If you don''t go, I''ll fire you!" The madam''s face was cold.
Fire?
Rent costs money, buying nutritional products for the son costs money, school costs money, how can I quit!
The woman pressed her lips tightly.
"You don''t want to be fired, and you don''t want to work. What are you going to do? Is the club supporting you to freeload, huh?" Seeing the woman unmoved, the madam was furious.
"I... I''ll go!"
The woman gritted her teeth, took the bottle.
"Your task is to make him drink at least one ss of this. Naturally, the more the better. Afterpleting your task, report to me immediately." The madammanded coldly.
The woman, with no other choice, nodded in agreement.
She never imagined that, being forced into this ce by a bitter life, her first job would be with an acquaintance!
So awkward.
She walked towards the room Ye Huan had entered, each step heavy, struggling.
Entering the room, after closing the door, she was still unbearably awkward, not daring to meet Ye Huan''s eyes lying on the big bed.
Ye Huan, his hands on the back of his head, smiled:
"Li Ying, what are you dawdling for? Come on, teach me!"
Chapter 408 - 405: Li Ying, Help?
Upon hearing Ye Huan call her name, Li Ying felt less awkward. She walked over with a catlike grace and sat on the edge of the bed.
Indeed, thedy Ye Huan had "taken a liking to" was precisely Li Ying, whom he had previously nted as a mole beside Zhong Wuya, providing Ye Huan with a significant amount of intel about Jiang Tiansha.
Later, she was discovered by Jiang Tiansha, who tortured her. Eventually, she was rescued from the underground base by Ye Huan and the police.
Ye Huan had been meaning to find out where she ended up, given the tragic past she''d enduredboth her and her son had been sold off for hundreds of thousands by her husband, and her elderly mother was beaten to death by Zhong Qianqian on the street...
His intention in reaching out to her was to offer whatever help he could; little did he expect to run into her at such a ce.
"Miss Li, why are you standing there? Start your lesson. You can''t let my brother''s money go to waste." Ye Huan said seriously.
Li Ying rolled her eyes. "I don''t mind, but I don''t think you''re that type of person."
With a grin, Ye Huan asked, "What type do you think I am then?"
"Not the kind to seek entertainment at a ce like this."
"Congrattions, you got it right." Ye Huan gave a thumbs-up and then took the brandy from Li Ying''s hand, asking, "Did Liuchuan Zhi give this to you?"
"Liuchuan Zhi? Your brother? No, it''s that olddy who ordered me to give you this, to start with at least one ss." Li Ying replied.
"Then there''s no mistake."
Ye Huan''s lips curled into a smile.
He then changed the subject and asked, "Why are you working at a ce like this?"
"I had no choice." Li Ying sighed. "Although the state covers my son''s medical expenses, we still have to live; we don''t have a house. I need to rent a ce, don''t I? Besides, I need to buy some supplements for my son. After he''s healthy, he has to go to kindergarten and then primary school. It costs a lot of money. But I have no education and no skills. I searched all over Celestial Sea but couldn''t find a job that would take me except herebecause of my looks. I really had no choice but to work here. Who knew my first customer would be you; what are the odds..."
Before Li Ying could continue, Ye Huan said, "Quit this ce; I''ll find you a job at Tianyun International as an office clerk, sry forty-five hundred a month with full benefits. How does that sound?"
Li Ying was taken aback, filled with joy. "Really?"
Joy turned into a hesitant sigh before Ye Huan could reply. She said, "I have low education, and my family is poor. Don''t office clerks need to work onputers these days? I don''t know how to use them."
"It doesn''t matter. As long as you are willing to learn and work diligently, it''s fine."
"Can I really do it?"
"Of course."
Receiving a positive response, Li Ying was overjoyed.
She would never have worked at such a ce if there were other options.
Previously, her son was in Zhong Qianqian''s hands, leaving her no choice.
Now, it was because of poverty and unemployment that she was helpless.
Now with a job offering forty-five hundred a month and full benefits, she couldn''t be happier.
Soon after, a golden sh caught her eye as a card fell beside her, leaving her stupefied.
Ye Huan pointed to the bank card and smiled gently:
"There''s a million in the card, enough to buy a decent apartment, and the rest can be used to buy supplements for your son, more than sufficient for you both to live well for a few years."
"This is your reward for gathering information for me in such a dangerous situation before."
Li Ying was startled by the amount and hurriedly returned the card. "I can''t ept this; I only provided intel to save my son. Please, take it back!" Chapter provided via *.
"Kindergarten costs at least twenty-five hundred a month otherwise, which is detrimental to the child''s education. Without this money, your living conditions will be difficult, and if the housing condition is poor, your son''s resistance may be weak, leading to illness, which affects growth due to poor nutrition."
"Besides, since I said it''s your reward, it is your reward."
"A million isn''t much for me. Just keep it."
Indeed, Ye Huan''s logic was sound.
Li Ying gritted her teeth and held the bank card tightly, as if it were a treasure, nodded solemnly, and said, "Don''t worry; I''ll work hard to pay you back."
Ye Huan smiled lightly, then took the brandy bottle to the bathroom, opened the cap, and poured the liquor into the drain.
What he didn''t tell Li Ying was that the card contained five or six million, an amount she might never be able to repay in her lifetime.
But he never expected Li Ying to repay this money. Giving it was solely to offer a helping hand to the pitiful mother and son.
Moreover, with a "repayment" goal in mind, Li Ying would likely work even harder.
He hoped this pitiful duo would have a somewhat better future...
Pouring out about half, Ye Huan returned with the brandy, lips curling into a smile, saying, "Go make your report; just say I drank half."
"Okay..."
Li Ying took the bottle, a cunning look in her eyes, and asked, "You... really don''t want to study?"
Ye Huan''s face darkened: "No need!"
"Well, then your brother''s money is wasted~"
Li Ying didn''t understand Ye Huan''s actions in pouring out the drink, but she didn''t question it. Teasing him after a couple of sentences, she left the room with the bottle.
"How are things?" Outside the room, Liuchuan Zhi and the olddy had been waiting for a while. Seeing Li Yinge out, they asked immediately.
"He drank half a bottle." Li Ying handed over the bottle.
"Haha, you''ve done a great job!"
"Let''s go back; you can start teaching him now!"
"If anythinges up, inform me directly!"
Liuchuan Zhi took the bottle,ughing heartily.
Li Ying nodded and returned to the room.
"Follow me, all of you, today''s expenses are on Mr. Liu!" Liuchuan Zhi, with an arm around each girl, led the rest into a room.
He was evidently in a very good mood.
The reason was simple.
The one ruining his ns, Ye Huan, was about to "die"!
Liu Aimin was sure to perish!
Liuchuan Zhi would ascend to the top of the Liu Family hierarchy, attaching himself to Yu Beixuan, and in the future, at least be the head of a third-line family in the Capital City!
Boundless power!
Haha!
Actually, Liuchuan Zhi had used a bit of cunning.
He chose to poison Ye Huan at this venue to numb Ye Huan''s senses with women.
With medical skills so advanced, even if the poison was colorless and tasteless, he might still notice something.
But as long as he was engrossed in "studying," he''d drink the poisoned alcohol without any defense under the women''s apaniment.
A physician cannot heal himself!
This kid... is doomed!
With a sinisterugh, Liuchuan Zhi immersed himself in "studying" as well.
"Hello, is this Uncle Qin?"
"Yes, I am reporting that the Normandy club provides illegal services."
"Coming now? Good!"
"Oh, and when you arrest the criminals, bring a stretcher and a white sheet. Release news to the public saying someone was brutally murdered in the club in a horrendous way, but don''t disclose the specifics."
"No actual death, just follow my instructions."
In an alleyway, Ye Huan was on a call.
He had already quietly sneaked out with Li Ying from the club.
"Okay, I won''t be seeing you off. You can head back now," Ye Huan said with a smile, "If you have the time, go to Tianyun International and mention my name; they will arrange for you to join."
"Hmm... alright, thank you. If there''s a next life, I''ll repay you like an ox or horse!" Li Ying was immensely grateful, bowing sincerely with tears gathering at the corners of her eyes.
She didn''t understand why Ye Huan had poured out the drink or why he had discreetly exited the club with her, among other baffling actions. But she wisely refrained from questioning any of it.
Less than ten minutester.
Over a hundred armed special forces officers kicked open the club''s doors.
In a certain suite''s small room, the door was kicked open by armed officers:
"Vice crackdown!!!"
Chapter 409 - 406: As your mother-in-law, I, Liu Dandan, have done everything I could.
"Ah!!!"
The women shrieked in shock and crouched down with their heads in their hands.
Oh my God!!!
Liu Chuanzhi was engrossed in his studies when he found himself surrounded by more than a dozen guns, which instantly terrified him to the core.
...
Receiving services isn''t a major crime; after being registered at the police station, paying a certain amount of fines, and finding someone to bail him out, Liu Chuanzhi was released by the police.
As he walked out of the police station, he was apanied by Liu Dandan, who wore a face full of disgust.
Liu Dandan had been on a date with her kept man when she got the call that Liu Chuanzhi had been arrested and needed her to bail him out, which instantly put her in the worst of moods.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got.
She started swearing at him, spitting as she shouted at Liu Chuanzhi, "You''re the eldest son of the Liu Family, going to ces like that without worrying about your reputation? And getting caught to top it off!"
Liu Chuanzhi had been in such high spirits while learning, only to be suddenly arrested, leaving him feeling so disheartened that he doubted himselfpletely.
Liu Dandan''s tirade only ignited his anger, making him shout back, "Who do you think you are to show me that attitude? I''m doing all of this for our n!"
"You dare to be fierce with me? A n, really?"
"You make excuses for going to clubs, and then getting arrested by the police..."
Liu Dandan paused and furrowed her brow, "How''s the n going?"
"That kid, Ye Huan, is dead!"
Hearing this, Liu Dandan couldn''t help but be overjoyed, "Really?"
"Really."
"Although the police barged in and took me away, so I didn''t see that kid''s body with my own eyes, there''s already news about it."
Liu Chuanzhi handed the phone to Liu Dandan.
On the phone''s screen was a headline.
"Breaking! Celestial Sea City''s policeunchrge-scale anti-vice operation, bust an illegal den, arresting a total of 512 people. During the operation, they inadvertently discovered a corpse,pletely ckened. The police suspect murder, and investigations are proceeding orderly."
The news was apanied by a picture of a stretcher covered with a white sheet, heavily pixted.
But the words pletely ckened" made Liu Dandan and Liu Chuanzhi exchange nces, then...
They burst intoughter!
Liu Chuanzhi himself was an example, the image of his own death still vivid!
Completely ckened, isn''t that the aftermath of taking B-max and dying!
Ye Huan is dead!
With Ye Huan dead, nothing can stop them now!
Nothing can stop them from poisoning Liu Aimin, taking over the Liu Family, allying with the Yu Family, and gaining more and more benefits!
"Chuanzhi, this time I misjudged you, I''m sorry."
"You were faking enjoyment but actually executing the n."
"And now that Ye Huan is dead, can we proceed with our next step?"
Liu Dandan chuckled sinisterly.
The next step was naturally poisoning Liu Aimin.
"Tomorrow night," Liu Chuanzhi said.
"Tomorrow night? Alright."
"When I get back, I''ll inform Young Master Beixuan to find time tomorrow night toe to Celestial Sea and witness our ascent to the top of the Liu Family."
"At that time, you and I will announce our alliance with him on the spot."
Liu Chuanzhi readily agreed to Liu Dandan''s proposal.
After nodding, he drove off.
Liu Dandan returned to her car, lit ady''s cigarette, took a deep drag, and pulled out her phone.
Sheposed a message to someone marked as "Yu Beixuan Young Master" and sent it over.
"Yu Shao, Chuanzhi and I will ascend the Liu Family tomorrow night, and hope you can be there to support us and intimidate the other minor figures. Chuanzhi and I will serve you wholeheartedly in the future. Also... if you''re interested, I''ll introduce my daughter to you tomorrow night."
Soon after, a message came back.
"Let''s discuss thister, and no need for your daughter either."
Liu Dandan''s lips curled upwards, and she tapped to send a picture of Liu Tianyun.
A secondter, a reply came.
"Introducing your daughter isn''t the main thing, it''s mainly about lending support and intimidating others. I''ll be there tomorrow."
"Heh, men!"
Liu Dandan chuckled softly.
As expected, no matter how high their position or how impressive their status, all men love beautiful women.
Someone as exceptional as Liu Tianyun can drive any man crazy!
She started the car, exhaled a long thin column of smoke, crushed out the cigarette, and tossed it out the window, her heart filled with coldughter.
Ye Huan, as your mother-inw, I, Liu Dandan, really went above and beyond.
Now that you''re gone, I, Liu Dandan, found someone with a better background and abilities for your wife, preventing her from bing a despised widow.
You met your end in the Yellow Springs; don''t me anyone else.
If you must me something, me your excellent medical skills butck of a strong background, right!
me it on sharing the same surname, Ye, with Huaxia''s Crown Prince, but not even being a speck of dust beside him!
me it on the vast gulf between you and Huaxia''s Crown Prince despite the shared surname!
For a country bumpkin like you without a background, you didn''t deserve my exceptional daughter!
While Yu Beixuan might not measure up to Huaxia''s Crown Prince, he''ll surely be the patriarch of a top family in the future.
Liu Tianyun, following him, won''t lose out!
I, Liu Dandan, will also be Yu Beixuan''s mother-inw, bing an elitedy in the Capital City!
Down there, watch.
Watch how Yu Beixuan takes a simple action tomorrow night to win over Liu Tianyun''s heart...
Rest assured, when the grasses on your grave stand a yard high next year, I, your mother-inw, Liu Dandan, then a distinguisheddy of the Capital City, will lower myself to your grave to dance a disco, celebrate
No,memorate your first anniversary of passing, haha!
Just imagining the scene of taking over the Liu Family tomorrow night gets Liu Dandan all worked up.
Especially since the Young Master Yu, the future patriarch, will personally attend to support her, she is so excited that she''s dancing in her car
...
"Coming over tomorrow night?"
Ye Huan raised an eyebrow, "Tomorrow, Liu Tianyun and I won''t be home. Juste to the Liu Mansion directly."
In the S-01, Brother Huan received a phone call.
It was from Ye Tiance and Liluo.
Liu Tianyun was discharged from the hospital, and they, as her inws, visiting was quite normal.
However, Brother Huan coincidentally had matters to attend to tomorrow at the Liu Mansion, capturing a treacherous wolf, so he decided to let theme along...
Chapter 410 - 407: Demon!
At six in the evening the following day, the night had quietly descended.
The Liu Family mansion was brightly lit.
Unlike the European-style decor on the exterior, the Patriarch''s bedroom on the top floor was filled with ancient charm. The edges of therge bed, crafted from fine sandalwood, were intricately carved with delicate patterns. Beside the bed, on a small stool made from rosewood, sat an inkstone with a burning incense stick. The white, cotton-like smoke drifted continuously in the air.
Jiang Jinfu ckened a small silver needle in his right hand over the incense me before piercing it into the Ren Zhong acupoint on Liu Aimin.
Seven secondster, the silver needle surprisingly drew out a droplet of dark purple blood from Liu Aimin''s Ren Zhong acupoint.
"Master Liu, with six more needles, in six days, I can clear all the toxins from your body," Jiang Jinfu exhaled stale air, withdrew the silver needle, and then positioned its tip over the incense stick on the small stool''s inkstone.
The dark blood dripped onto the incense, extinguishing the me with a "sizzling" sound.
"Old Jiang... Little Jiang, thank you so much," Liu Aimin said gratefully.
"No need to thank me. I just hope you can speak well of me in front of my master so that he truly epts me as his disciple."
"Alright, you need to rest now. I won''t disturb you any longer, I''m leaving."
With that, Jiang Jinfu picked up his medicine box and stepped out of the room.
Regarding his words, Liu Aimin could only smile awkwardly.
Liu Aimin had never thought that one day he would be able to ask for favors from a national medical expert.
With a "bang," the door closed.
After Jiang Jinfu left the room, he saw two people waiting outside the door and squinted his eyes to scrutinize them.
The eldest grandson of the Liu FamilyLiu Chuanzhi.
Mother of Liu TianyunLiu Dandan.
The two had already informed Zhou Yuanan of their intention to visit Liu Aimin and check on his recovery, arriving at the Liu residence an hour prior.
However, Jiang Jinfu had been treating Liu Aimin in the room for several hours beforehand, leaving them to wait outside.
Seeing Jiang Jinfu exit the room and directly look at them, both of them smiled awkwardly.
Liu Chuanzhi couldn''t help but clutch his right pocket tightly, sweat beading on his forehead, clearly feeling guilty.
Fortunately, Jiang Jinfu didn''t scrutinize them for long, letting out a cold snort and then turning away.
Both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Yet, at that moment, their garments were already soaked through with sweat.
If Jiang Jinfu had detected the poison hidden in the pocket and their plot was exposed, they would be finished.
The two entered the room, exchanged wicked grins, and locked the door behind them.
Meanwhile.
Jiang Jinfu arrived outside the Liu Family mansion and knocked on the window of a hundred-thousand-dor BMW MiniQ.
"They went in?" The driver''s side window rolled down slowly, and Ye Huan poked his head out.
"Reporting to Master, those two have already gone into Master Liu''s room."
Reporting to Master?
Ye Huan was speechless, then nodded, "Thank you, you can go back now. I''ll handle things here."
After Jiang Jinfu left, Liu Tianyun frowned and asked, "Who exactly is the traitor?"
"Why the rush? You''ll see in a moment. Get out of the car," Ye Huan''s lips curled slightly as he opened the car door and got out.
At that moment, a phone call came in.
Caller: Ye Tiance.
"You''re on the road, arriving in half an hour?"
"Alright, when you get to the Liu Family mansion, head straight to the top floor. I need to handle something there, Liu Tianyun is also here."
"Okay, that''s it, bye."
...
"You... it really is you!"
On the bed, Liu Aimin pointed at Liu Dandan and Liu Chuanzhi with a face full of sorrow, his voice trembling, "Why are you so cruel?"
"Master, don''t me us for being cruel!"
"If you must me someone, me yourself for being unreasonable!"
"Transfer the Liu Family to us two, and we will lead the Liu Family to attach itself to Master Yu, Yu Beixuan. Then the Liu Family will undoubtedly soar to great heights. We''ve asked you so many times, but you refuse without a thought. You''re truly a fool!"
"Do you even understand the value of attaching to Master Yu?"
Liu Chuanzhi let out a coldugh, pulled out a pair of white gloves from his pocket, put them on, and took out a medical syringe.
Contained in the syringe was a potion mixed with B-max.
One shot, and Liu Aimin would be dead for sure.
"Click."
Liu Chuanzhi pushed the plunger and a few drops of the poisonous liquid sprayed from the needle tip.
"Transfer it to you two? You are both short-sighted, how could I let the Liu Family fall into your hands!" Liu Aimin had no intention of conceding, his face full of anger, "And attach to the Yu family? Ridiculous! Compared to ''him'', what is the Yu family, what is Yu Beixuan!"
Beside him, Liu Dandan raised an eyebrow, "Are you talking about Ye Huan? The country bumpkin son-inw you arranged for my daughter?"
"Short-sighted, short-sighted!!!"
Liu Aimin sighed heavily, feeling deeply saddened.
Among the younger generation of the Liu Family, truly besides Liu Tianyun, there was not one person capable of undertaking a great responsibility, all were short-sighted fools!
Liu Tianyun was the apple of his eye; how could he possibly force her to marry an ordinary man she didn''t love when she felt nothing for any man?
Anyone with a bit of intelligence could understand that Ye Huan had something that caught Liu Aimin''s eye, at least in some way!
As the patriarch of the Liu Family, Liu Aimin''s perspective could not be anything but sharp, and a grandson-inw recognized by him could never be mediocre.
He took a deep breath.
Liu Chuan Zhi was his biological grandson.
Liu Dandan was his biological daughter.
He was willing to give them onest chance.
"Let me tell you, with Ye Huan''s protection, my Liu Family canst forever!"
"Yu Beixuan? The future patriarch of the Yu Family? How utterlyughable. Compared to Ye Huan, what is he?"
"If you two truly reform, the punishment I give you will be only expulsion from the Liu Family! Otherwise..."
"You must bear the consequences!"
"Pfft."
Liu Aimin''s warnings not only did not frighten them, but instead made themugh out loud.
What kind of existence was the Yu Family? A top aristocratic family in the power-ridden Capital City!
Ten Liu Familiesbined could notpare to the Yu Family!
What kind of existence was Yu Beixuan? The soon-to-be new patriarch of the Yu Family!
Yet Liu Aimin dared to im that the Yu Family and Yu Beixuan were nothingpared to Ye Huan?
Liu Dandan''s face was full of scorn; she thought Liu Aimin was truly muddle-headed. Did this old man really think that just because Ye Huan and the Crown Prince of Huaxia both had the surname Ye, Ye Huan was really the Huaxia Crown Prince?
Ridiculous.
"Whizz"
Poisonous liquid was again released.
Liu Chuan Zhi sneered and said disdainfully:
"Liu Aimin, you old fool truly have lived long enough; your intelligence has degraded to such a level. Ye Huan is merely proficient in some medical skills. Do you really think that just because he''s somewhat skilled, he can surpass Young Master Beixuan in status?"
"You''ve lived enough. Today, your grandson will fulfill his filial duty and send you to report to the underworld. Rest assured... you won''t feel any pain at all when you die."
"Additionally, let me inform you of two things."
"The first thing is, my aunt and I have already ''helped'' you write your will. In half an hour, everyone from the Liu Family will be present, and the eldest son of the Yu Family, the future patriarchYu Beixuan, will also be there to support me and my aunt. By then... my aunt and I will jointly read the will, bing the helms of the Liu Family, and lead the Liu Family to ally with Young Master Beixuan. After that... at least the Liu Family will be a third-tier family in the Capital City!"
"The second thing is..."
At this point, the corner of Liu Chuan Zhi''s mouth widened into a devilish grin.
With a wicked smile, he walked step by step towards Liu Aimin, extending the needle, while...
He said with a smile: "That Ye Huan, whom you said is stronger than Young Master Beixuan, is already... dead!"
Dead!?
Liu Aimin''s expression changed drastically, his pupils constricted.
Ye Huan was the apprentice of "that esteemed person" and was Liu Tianyun''s beloved for over twenty years!
If he died...
The whole world would be turned upside down!
Liu Tianyun would surely not live alone!
The needle approached Liu Aimin''s skin.
Liu Dandan looked down on Liu Aimin from above, her gaze without pity, only ridicule and amusement,ughing incessantly.
Once the poison fluid entered Liu Aimin''s body, she would be Yu Beixuan''s mother-inw, a super socialite in the Capital City.
Two devils!
Liu Chuan Zhi''s face was full of a sinister smile, grabbing Liu Aimin by the neck, he suddenly raised the syringe in his hand and stabbed down fiercely!
Just at this moment!
"Bang!"
A loud crash, the door copsed with a bang, raising a cloud of dust!
Meanwhile...
"Whizz"
"Whizz"
"Whizz"
"Whizz"
"Whizz"
Chapter 411 - 408: You can make the call now, Ill wait for your North Xuan young master to come.
The sound of several winds breaking through the air echoed simultaneously!
This sudden scene caused Liu Chuan Zhi''s face to change dramatically.
Five toothpicks pierced through the five fingers of his right hand, causing immediate excruciating pain and forcing his fist to involuntarily loosen.
The syringe, descending even faster!
The needle was aimed directly at Liu Aimin''s neck!
But at this moment, a shadow moved towards the syringe at a speed invisible to the naked eye.
While this figure grabbed the syringe with the right hand, the left hand suddenly reached out towards Liu Chuan Zhi, grasping his neck, then viciously raised the right hand, driving the syringe needle into the exposed blood vessel on the neck!
"Ah!!!!!!"
Liu Chuan Zhi let out an earth-shattering, piercing wail, his eyes bulgingrger than eggs.
"Squeal"
In one second, the plunger of the medical syringe was pushed heavily to the bottom.
After that, this figure raised their palm.
"p!!"
With a crisp, loud sound, Liu Chuan Zhi flew several meters back, crashing against the wall and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
The change happened too quickly, no one could clearly see the scene.
When they regained their senses, both Liu Aimin and Liu Dandan were stunned.
"Ye Huan!?"
"Little Ye!?"
Liu Dandan looked terrified.
Liu Aimin, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, of course, how could the disciple of that person be killed by these two ipetent juniors?
"You...you''re not...weren''t you dead!" Liu Chuan Zhi, ignoring his body''s pain, stared at Ye Huan in shock.
"Dead?"
Ye Huan showed a mocking expression, "No wonder the old man won''t let you inherit the Liu Family, with your intelligence, what can you do?"
Liu Dandan''s face was red with anger as they realized Ye Huan had faked his death!
The leaking of the information by the police was definitely intentional, definitely instructed by Ye Huan.
As for why the police helped him...
Didn''t Liu Tianyun have a close friend named Qin Ya, whose father was the police chief? Ye Huan must have approached him for help, and spread the word about everyone in Normandy dying covered in ck!
Damn it, they were yed!
Liu Dandan''s face turned red with anger.
Liu Chuan Zhi wanted to be angry, but he had no energy!
The poison had been injected into his body!
He crawled to the side of Liu Aimin''s rosewood bed, held Liu Aimin''s hand, and cried out loudly: "Grandpa... Grandfather, I know I was wrong, please...please forgive me this time, I...I''m willing to leave the Liu Family, just...just let Ye Huan detoxify me!!!"
He never expected that the poison prepared for Liu Aimin would be injected into himself, but he knew that the only person who could help detoxify him and save his life was Ye Huan!
However, he had already offended Ye Huan gravely, how could he possibly still plead with Ye Huan?
So, he could only beg Liu Aimin to have Ye Huan, for his sake, spare his life!
Unfortunately.
"Ssh"
Liu Aimin waved his hand and directly knocked Liu Chuan Zhi''s hand away. He looked expressionless, his eyes cold, "I have been more than kind, already giving you thest chance. I have said that if you don''t stop, you''ll bear the consequences, even if... the consequence is death!"
"Boom!"
Liu Chuan Zhi seemed thunderstruck, his mind went nk.
He never thought Liu Aimin would be this ruthless.
Seeing his grandson about to die, would he just stand there unmoved?
How heartless!
Liu Chuan Zhi suddenly stood up, grabbed Liu Aimin''spels, and cursed in anger, "Old thing, your grandson is about to die, and you''re not even willing to say a good word, let me tell you, even if I die, I''ll take you with me..."
"p!"
The sound of a p echoed throughout the room.
Liu Chuan Zhi, seeing stars, copsed to the ground, unable to get up again.
Ye Huan remained calm, ncing at Liu Aimin, "Old Master, are you all right?"
Liu Aimin took a deep breath, suppressing the sorrow he felt for having such a disgraceful descendant, and shook his head.
Regaining herposure, Liu Tianyun hurried into the room, helping Liu Aimin back into bed, while casting a furious gaze at Liu Dandan.
When she first saw Liu Dandan''s face, she was stunned for a long, long time.
She knew Liu Dandan had been arrogant and extravagant from childhood, greatly conflicting with Liu Aimin''s ethos of hard work. They had always been at odds, but she never imagined she would conspire with Liu Chuan Zhi to poison Liu Aimin.
Utterly unfilial!
To Liu Dandan, Liu Tianyun''s angry stare didn''t matter; after all, Liu Tianyun was just a tool for her to enter the socialite circle of the Capital City.
However, Ye Huan...
Even with Ye Huan''s calm gaze, it still made her stagger, nearly falling to the ground in a heap.
She had seen Ye Huan''s skill just now; if he wanted to deal with her, she would have no ability to fight back.
"Old Master Liu, this ungrateful wolf, how do you think we should handle her?" Naturally, the ingrate Ye Huan referred to was Liu Dandan.
Before Liu Aimin could speak.
"You...don''t act rashly!"
"Let me tell you, I...I''m about to be the mother-inw of the first young master of the Yu family, Yu Beixuan, I...I''m about to be a super socialite of the Capital City!"
"Plus, Young Master Yu will soon be here to back us up, you...if you go against me, you''ll suffer the consequences!"
Liu Dandan red fiercely at Ye Huan, her words filled with threats.
After a few seconds of silence, seeing Ye Huan''s unchanged expression, she felt it necessary to educate Ye Huan on what it meant to be a first-line family in the Capital City, in case this uncultured person didn''t know how powerful they could be and might harm her!
"Do you think ''marrying'' into my Liu Family is quite impressive? Let me tell you, in front of the Yu Family, the Liu Family is just a small fish; the Liu Family is powerful in the Celestial Sea, but in the Capital City, it doesn''t even reach the level of a third-tier family!"
"Your medical skills are strong, and you''re somewhat intelligent, but in front of Young Master Beixuan, you are nothing!"
"How about this, I''ll guide you to a bright future, you kill Liu Aimin to show allegiance, then have Tianyun apany Young Master Beixuan, and I''ll give you the opportunity to join me in pleasing Young Master Beixuan to take control of the Liu Family!"
"Once Young Master Beixuan is pleased, the Liu Family''s power will surely surge, reaching the third-tier family status in the Capital, something we couldn''t even dream of before. By then, you and I will control the Liu Family..."
"What! What about me? Didn''t you say I would control the Liu Family with you?" In the corner of the room, the bruised Liu Chuan Zhi shouted angrily, abruptly interrupting Liu Dandan.
Liu Dandan raised her eyebrows, "You, a soon-to-be-dead person, how can you control the Liu Family with me? I''ve been displeased with you for a long time, just die already."
"Ugh!"
Liu Chuan Zhi pointed at her, spitting out a mouthful of blood in anger...
This blood left him dumbfounded.
ck...
"Thud." Liu Chuan Zhipletely passed out, never to wake again.
Liu Dandan lit ady''s cigarette, taking a deep puff before looking at Ye Huan, full of self-satisfaction and amusement.
She considered herself very clever, as long as Ye Huan knew what was good for him and joined her after behaving...
She could not only be Yu Beixuan''s mother-inw, entering the super socialite circle of the Capital City but also be the apprentice of the nation''s top physician Jiang Jinfong, elevating her status once more.
Seeing Ye Huan stretch out his hand, she assumed he wanted to join, her smile growing even brighter.
But the next second, her expression changed.
Ye Huan was merely pulling over the rosewood chair to the bedside.
Seated in the chair, he slightly curled his lips, making a gesture of "go ahead."
"You can make the call now."
"I''ll stay here today, waiting for the Young Master Beixuan you mentioned toe."
"I want to see if he dares to make my woman apany him."
"I want to see if he can save you today."
"Go on, call him."
Chapter 412 - 409 Yu Beixuan
Liu Dandan was immediately displeased, her lips twisting into a sneer several times.
Did Ye Huan think he was really stronger than Beixuan just because Liu Aimin said so?
Ridiculous, he must be taught a lesson.
After exhaling a long stream of smoke, she pulled out her phone.
"Master Beixuan, are you arriving in ten minutes?"
"Okay, the matter isn''t resolved yet, we need you toe and assert authority."
"My daughter is here too, don''t worry, as long as you reveal your identity and hold the scene, tonight I can have my daughter apany you."
"Not apanying first? Then building emotional rapport works too, fine, I''m waiting for you at the Liu Family manor."
With that, she hung up the phone and looked back at Ye Huan.
She smiledcently, spreading her hands, "Master Beixuan is on his way, I hope you can still talk as tough when he arrives."
Beside her, Liu Tianyun wanted to scold her overly materialistic mother, but was stopped by Ye Huan''s gesture.
To Ye Huan, arguing with someone like Liu Dandan was aplete waste of breath.
Liu Tianyun could only bite her lip lightly and swallow back her words.
She knew from a young age that in her mother''s heart, she was merely a tool.
Still, hearing Liu Dandan truly say something like "apanying the young master" chilled her to the bone.
...
Ten kilometers from the Liu Family manor, a multi-million-dor Mazda roared down the highway.
Yu Beixuan set down his phone, a look of anticipation on his face.
For over twenty years, he was the eldest son of a prominent Capital City family, wielding significant power, yet his personal life was not as chaotic as other yboys.
On the contrary, this eldest son of the Yu family lived an exceedingly clean life, with the number of women he''s been with countable on one hand.
He was extremely selective about women, insisting on only the finest, and prioritizing feelings over lineage. He wouldn''t use family power or money to coerce women.
If he found out a woman approached him for benefits, he''d leave her with a p, ending the rtionship on the spot.
Yu Beixuan hoped Liu Tianyun was not a gold digger, but a genuine and honest woman.
In that case, he was willing to marry Liu Tianyun.
At first nce at the photo, Yu Beixuan knew that Liu Tianyun''s extraordinary beauty fulfilled all his fantasies about women.
For a woman like her, he nned to win her heart first, then her body, taking it slow.
Ten minutester, he arrived at the Liu Family manor and headed straight to the top floor.
Liu Dandan greeted him obsequiously, introducing herself at length.
But Yu Beixuan didn''t hear a single word she said.
Yu Beixuan''s gaze was fixated on Liu Tianyun.
Even more beautiful than in the photo!
Liu Dandan wasn''t angry that he ignored her and instead stared intently at her daughter; rather, she was delighted.
After all, as long as Liu Tianyun could please Yu Beixuan, she would naturally be Yu Beixuan''s mother-inw and reap innumerable benefits. Being ignored... it didn''t matter at this moment!
However, there was one thing that made Liu Dandan a bit uneasy.
That was she had kept from Yu Beixuan the fact that Liu Tianyun was married.
She felt it necessary to tell Yu Beixuan, otherwise when the truth came out, it would surely upset him.
After a moment''s hesitation, Liu Dandan steadied herself and said seriously, "Master Beixuan..."
Married?
Upon hearing Liu Dandan''s words, Yu Beixuan''s eyes narrowed slightly.
But he wasn''t angry, only felt a sense of regret.
A woman like Liu Tianyun, who fulfilled every man''s fantasy, was actually married? And taken by a man unworthy of her?
"Snap."
A blue me ignited from a Gi lighter, lighting a cigar as Yu Beixuan pulled up a chair and sat before Ye Huan.
Exhaling a smoke ring, he crossed his legs, pulled a gold card from his pocket with two fingers, and tossed it at Ye Huan''s feet, saying indifferently, "There''s a billion in the card, divorce Miss Tianyun, you... are unworthy of her."
"I''m unworthy of her?" Ye Huan couldn''t help but chuckle softly.
The only thing he could see was that the person before him was a master at putting on an act, a very convincing one.
"So what you''re saying is she should belong to you?" Ye Huan asked with interest.
"Only a man with the most elite background and identity in the world is worthy of a celestial being like Miss Tianyun."
"By conventional standards, only that person, the Crown Prince of Huaxia, with unparalleled background and power across three generations, would be worthy of Miss Tianyun!"
"However, I''m certain the Crown Prince doesn''tck women around him, let alone want a divorced woman. So... I, Yu Beixuan, am willing to take this up and marry the celestial Tianyun."
"I know I, Yu Beixuan, might not be very fitting, but..."
Yu Beixuan took another deep drag of his cigar, saying lightly, "More fitting than you."
Chapter 413 - 410: If my son is not worthy, then who else in this world is qualified!?
As soon as he finished speaking, the aura of authority swept from his body.
With his indifferent expression, strong features, and the sharply tailored deep ck Armani suit, he exuded masculine charm...
No, perhaps it would be more urate to say he looked like a king of pretentiousness.
For a moment, even Liu Dandan was captivated by him; if given the chance, she would seize the opportunity to win over Yu Beixuan herself.
"Ye Huan, Master Beixuan is speaking to you, didn''t you hear?"
"As long as you divorce Tianyun and get rid of that old geezer Liu Aimin, not only will you gain ten billion yuan, but you can also join me in controlling the Liu Family."
"You may have decent medical skills, but youck a proper background. Though yourst name is Ye, the gap between you and the Ye Family in the Capital City, the gap with the Crown Prince, is just too vast. You''re merely a country bumpkin with some medical skills, someone like you doesn''t deserve Tianyun."
"Don''t me anyone, me yourself for not perfecting your reincarnation technique enough to be born into the Ye Family in the Capital City."
With Yu Beixuan holding the fort, Liu Dandan was emboldened. She couldn''t believe Ye Huan would dare defy Yu Beixuan and harm her.
As she spoke coldly, she was already scheming in her mind on how to swindle the ten billion from Ye Huan. After all, such arge sum isn''t something a country bumpkin is qualified to own.
When Yu Beixuan heard these words, his gaze shifted to the couch.
He met Liu Aimin''s eyes and then spoke faintly, "Old man, for the sake of your granddaughter, I''ll give you a chance to live. Lead the Liu Family to submit to me, and I''ll help your Liu Family be a third-rate family in the Capital City."
"That''s not possible!" Liu Dandan eximed in shock.
If Liu Aimin doesn''t die, she won''t be able to control the Liu Family!
She sighed in relief the next moment.
Fortunately, Liu Aimin didn''t "y ball."
"Youngster, I advise you not to speak too soon. You want my Liu Family to bow to you? You''re not qualified!" Liu Aimin retorted with a hint of mockery.
"Then I''ll give you another chance."
Yu Beixuan remained indifferent, pulling out a switchde and tossing it beside Liu Aimin. "You canmit suicide here, in front of me, Yu Beixuan. It would be a death with honor."
"Enough! Can you stop being so pretentious!"
Liu Tianyun couldn''t stand it any longer and shouted angrily.
Already annoyed by Yu Beixuan for saying that Ye Huan was unworthy in various ways with his high-and-mighty demeanor, she felt a strong sense of disgust toward him. Hearing him demand Liu Aimin tomit suicide, she finally couldn''t hold back her anger and cursed aloud.
Beside her, Ye Huan snorted withughter, the corners of his mouth twisting upwards.
As expected of the decisive Ice Queen, her scolding hit the mark.
Next to them, Liu Dandan jumped in shock, grabbing Liu Tianyun''s arm and pulling her aside, eyes ring, teeth gritting: "What are you doing? How can you curse Master Beixuan like that? Do you really think that old man''s words about Ye Huan being more impressive than Yu Beixuan are true? Grow up! Just because Ye Huan''sst name is Ye doesn''t mean he has anything to do with the Ye Family in the Capital City. Hurry up, as his granddaughter, persuade that old man tomit suicide with honor. At least it would be yourst act of filial piety for him."
"Smack!"
Liu Tianyun couldn''t hold back any longer and pped her exceedingly snobbish mother hard across the face.
Liu Dandan was dumbstruck on the spot.
"p. p. p."
"So full of character."
"Miss Tianyun, to be honest, I''ve grown more fond of you."
Yu Beixuan smiled, apuding as he stood up, then cast a cold nce at Ye Huan.
With his fingers, he pulled out another gold card from his pocket and tossed it at Ye Huan''s feet,manding coolly: "Five billion on the card, totaling fifteen billion. Divorce her. She''s not a woman you''re qualified to have."
"Just as you said, if I''m not worthy, then no one in the world is," Ye Huan replied with an amused smile.
Yu Beixuan was stunned for a moment then looked utterly contemptuous.
Ye Huan''s words were the funniest "joke" he had ever heard.
He was about to open his mouth to mock Ye Huan when,
"If my son is unworthy, then who in this world could possibly be worthy!?"
Suddenly, a cold, authoritativeughter echoed through the room.
This slightly familiar voice made Yu Beixuan''s brow furrow.
Son?
Does that mean those words came from Ye Huan''s father?
He hadn''t met Ye Huan''s father, so why did this voice sound a bit familiar?
Yu Beixuan''s brow furrowed.
He slightly turned his head to look towards the source of the voice, outside the room.
He saw who it was.
"Thud."
His legs couldn''t stop trembling.
He fell to his knees.
Chapter 414 - 411: The Oppressive Power of the Superior, Yu Beixuan No Longer Dares to Pretend!
Not only was there a "plop" inside the room.
Outside the door, there were more than twenty "plops."
These juniors of the Liu Family received the news from Liu Dandan, which was the message of Liu Aimin''s death, and happily rushed to the Liu family''s residence.
When they arrived at the main gate of the residence, they saw a Hongqi sedan with the license te "Army A: 00005" coincidentally parked in front of the gate.
No matter how foolish the juniors of the Liu Family were, they knew this was a car belonging to a military bigwig. While they wondered why a military bigwig''s car would visit the Liu family residence, they prepared to tter.
Two people got out of the car.
A man and a woman.
The man was wearing a neatly pressed military uniform, three stars on his shoulder, his face solemn and dignified.
The woman was wearing a ck knee-length trench coat, sunsses on her face, looking valiant and heroic.
The juniors of the Liu Family immediately recognized the two at first nce, and were instantly stunned, not daring to approach and tter.
The National Guard General, Director of Special Service Bureau Ye Tiance!
The former chairman of Li Corporation, the Business Queen of Huaxia Li Luo!
Two of the most powerful figures standing at the pinnacle of Huaxia!
The two of them walked straight into the Liu family''s residence and headed upstairs.
Everyone was secretly shocked, unable to understand why such big shots would visit the Liu family.
Who knew that when they reached upstairs, Ye Tiance would "arrogantly" shout those words.
Son?
In the room, there was only one person with the surname Ye!
Ye Huan!
"Boom!"
Everyone was struck as if by lightning, a thunderbolt crashing in their minds.
Yu Beixuan was the same, his mind went nk.
Ye Tiance, with his hands behind his back, his boots stepping on the redwood floor, walked coldly to the kneeling Yu Beixuan and questioned loudly: "Is my son worthy of having my daughter-inw?"
Yu Beixuan trembled all over, spitting out one word: "Worthy."
"You, Yu Beixuan, want toy a finger on my Li Luo''s daughter-inw?" Li Luo took off her sunsses, her voice extremely cold.
The air conditioning in the room blew warm air at twenty-eight degrees, very cozy, but Yu Beixuan felt a chill engulf his heart.
He gritted his teeth, shaking his head like a drum: "No... dare not."
"You think you''re more deserving than my son Ye Tiance of having my daughter-inw Liu Tianyun?" Ye Tiance looked down at Yu Beixuan with utmost disdain in his eyes.
Yu Beixuan felt extremely aggrieved but knew that Ye Tiance had the grounds to look down on him, to look down on the Yu family behind him.
His voice trembling, he said: "I... I was talking nonsense."
"You think you can ''order'' my son and daughter-inw to divorce with fifteen billion?" Li Luo''s phoenix eyes burst with a cold light, staring straight at Yu Beixuan.
Yu Beixuan didn''t dare to make eye contact with her, lowered his head, "I... I shouldn''t... have said that, I... I deserve to die."
"You want to give the Liu family the chance to be dependent on your Yu family?" Ye Tiance''s eyes were filled with even more contempt.
Dependent on the Yu family?
The Liu Family has Ye Huan, known as the Crown Prince of Huaxia, as a son-inw. All of Huaxia is the backing of the Liu family, is the background of the Liu family!
The Liu family is already a hundred times stronger than the Yu family!
Even if the seven major first-tier families were added up, they couldn''tpare to the Liu family with the Crown Prince of Huaxia as a son-inw!
The Yu family, what is it worth?
Yu Beixuan felt deeply ashamed, wishing he could find a hole to crawl into, gritted his teeth and replied: "I, Yu Beixuan, my Yu family... is not worthy!"
"For my father-inw to kill himself in front of you, is that his glory?" Li Luo continued to question coldly.
Their strong aura made it so that everyone except Ye Huan could hardly breathe.
At the center of the aura, Yu Beixuan couldn''t withstand the pressure any longer and broke down!
"I... I''m not a human, please... Uncle Ye, Aunt Li, please forgive me, please... Young Master Ye, forgive me!"
Yu Beixuan cried and turned his head, heavily kowtowing to Ye Huan.
"Not acting arrogant anymore?" Ye Huan''s lips curled up.
"No more arrogance, I... I''ll never act arrogantly again in my life! I... I know I''m wrong!"
Yu Beixuan cried even louder. He used to love acting superior, who knew this time in the little Liu family, he''d act all the way up to such high status, this luck... such a wretch!
He understood, Ye Huan remained indifferent to his act because Ye Huan considered his behavior nothing more than a clown''s farce!
"You know you''re wrong, then what''s next?" Ye Tiance asked calmly.
Yu Beixuan didn''t speak, he answered Ye Tiance with his actions.
Roll!
That''s right, literally rolled out of the room.
This scene left everyone utterly stunned.
The eldest young master of the Yu family, a scion of a first-tier family in the Capital City, actually "literally rolled" away in full view?
"..."
The entire Liu family residence was silent.
For the first time in their lives, they witnessed what true authority was.
What true oppression felt like!
Ye Tiance and Li Luo, with just a few words, scared the eldest young master of the Yu family, Yu Beixuan, into such a panic.
So domineering, so tyrannical!
But they absolutely had the right to be so domineering!
Because... these two stood at the pinnacle of Huaxia!
No, it''s three of them!
The eyes of the junior members of the Liu Family fell in unison on Ye Huan.
Five big words appeared in their minds: "Crown Prince of Huaxia!"
Bumpkin? No background?
They finally realized howughable they were.
The Crown Prince was surely keeping low-profile, hiding his true identity!
Liu Tianyun marrying Ye Huan meant she couldn''t marry into a prominent family in the Capital City anymore?
What she married into were the two greatest elite families in all of Huaxia!
She is the Crown Prince Consort of Huaxia!
Thinking about the insults they had hurled at Ye Huan, the Crown Prince, and Liu Tianyun, the Crown Prince Consort, everyone was filled with deep regret, regretting their shortsightedness, and not currying favor with him and Liu Tianyun before Ye Huan''s identity was revealed, their faces full of fear.
To insult the Crown Prince and Crown Prince Consort, and even boasting to use ridiculous martial arts on them?
This is courting death!
"Pa!"
"Pa!"
"Pa!"
One by one, the sound of pping faces echoed.
Outside the room, the junior members of the Liu Family began frantically pping their faces in fear, the scene was once very spectacr, and the sound of ps was incessant...
Inside the room, apart from the stunned Liu Aimin.
Everyone''s eyes turned to Liu Dandan.
To Liu Dandan, who looked excited, her hand clutching Li Luo''s tightly!
"Mother-inw, you really are my mother-inw, aren''t you?"
"Look at this, you even specially came to see me? Really!"
"I always said, my father let my precious daughter Tianyun marry Ye Huan, it was definitely the right choice beyond any doubt."
"When Tianyun initially rejected this marriage, it was still me persuading her continually to ept it!"
Chapter 415 - 412: Terrorist
Liu Dandan smiled obsequiously, almost jumping up with excitement.
Her sycophantic demeanor made Liu Tianyun look down upon her.
Liu Tianyun grabbed Liu Dandan''s arm and yanked her out, furious, "What are you doing!"
Liu Dandan blinked frantically, signaling Liu Tianyun to cooperate, "I... I''m just greeting my dear mother-inw, Tianyun, you should too,e and greet your mother-inw."
Liu Tianyun exploded instantly.
"Mother-inw? How dare you say such a thing!"
"When you asked me to apany Yu Beixuan, is this what you meant!"
"And persuade me to ept the marriage? What were you doing, you were actually persuading me to reject the marriage, urging me to quicklytch onto a young master from the Capital City to offset this marriage and secure more benefits for yourself!"
Liu Tianyun bit her lip lightly, her hatred towards this extremely opportunistic mother reaching its peak!
Liu Dandan''s face turned anxious, quickly covering Liu Tianyun''s mouth, awkwardly looking at Li Luo, "Dear mother-inw, please... please don''t misunderstand, the child is talking nonsense..."
"What nonsense did I speak!"
Liu Tianyun broke free, ring viciously at Liu Dandan.
Her heart was entirely chilled towards this so-called mother.
Her ambitions to climb the socialdder must not be realized!
Liu Tianyun took a deep breath, then revealed all of Liu Dandan''s atrocities: how she abused her, resulting in her running away from home and being abducted, yet Liu Dandan didn''t want to save her; how a few months ago she stopped her from breaking up with Liu Aimin and rejecting the marriage with Ye Huan; and how she repeatedly humiliated Ye Huan in public by encouraging her totch onto powerful families in the Capital City.
Liu Dandan was so anxious she was stomping her feet, always trying to stop Liu Tianyun from continuing to speak, but Liu Tianyun had enough of her.
Such a conniving person, if she had inws like Ye and Li''s with immense power, it was obvious what she would do!
She would definitely be a malevolent force, indirectly tarnishing Ye Huan''s family!
How could Liu Tianyun let someone like this be an inw of the Ye and Li families?
As Liu Dandan''s crimes were exposed one by one, the young members of the Liu family were dumbfounded, this aunt of theirs...
A true viper indeed!
Even scorpions would call her a master!
Liu Dandan was seething with anger, gritting her teeth and raising her hand to p Liu Tianyun.
But Li Luo''s icy, abyss-like gaze immediately scared her into pulling back her hand, her face turning pale.
Li Luo snorted lightly, gently pulled Liu Tianyun into her arms, and softly murmured, "A mother like this... it''s better not to have. From now on, consider me your mother."
Liu Tianyun recounted all her grievances from these years, holding back her tears, and at this moment, feeling extremely warm being embraced by Li Luo.
Liu Dandan''s face turned ghastly pale, copsing to the ground.
Better not to have such a mother?
She knew.
"Her inws," didn''t want to acknowledge her as the mother-inw!
If not acknowledged, then her dream of bing the "Empress Dowager of Huaxia" would shatter!
Just as she racked her brains on how to salvage the situation...
Ye Huan stood up from the bench, looking at Liu Aimin, "Father Liu, how to deal with this ungrateful creature is for you to decide."
He then directed his calm gaze towards Liu Dandan.
"Expel her from the Liu family!"
"Confiscate all properties rted to the Liu family!"
"Sever the father-daughter rtionship!"
Liu Aimin announced one punishment after another for Liu Dandan, causing her mind to go nk.
Expel her from the Liu family? She was a leech clinging to the Liu family; without it, she couldn''t survive!
Confiscate all properties rted to the Liu family? All her assets were tied to the Liu family, not a single penny was earned by her, this was topletely bankrupt her!
Sever the father-daughter rtionship? Without Liu Aimin as her father, she was nothing in society.
"Father, please... please forgive me this time, I... I will be filial to you from now on, I won''t... won''t be an ungrateful person anymore!" Liu Dandan cried as she crawled to Liu Aimin''s bedside, pleading desperately.
She regretted deeply.
She never thought what Liu Aimin said was true, that Ye Huan''s status was a hundred times more powerful than Yu Beixuan!
Ye Huan''s "Reincarnation Technique" truly was the strongest in the world!
Yu Beixuan and the Yu family were nothingpared to Ye Huan!
She didn''t want to give up the chance to be the "Empress Dowager of Huaxia"; at the very least, she didn''t want to be destitute and reduced to amoner, crying even louder, hoping to make "that Liu beast" say a few good words for her.
Unfortunately, Liu Aimin had no such intention, he had utterly lost all affection for this ungrateful daughter.
Outside the room, a few perceptive young members of the Liu family rushed in, grabbed Liu Dandan, and despite her struggles, dragged her out.
As peace returned to his surroundings, Liu Aimin coldly nced at the young members of the Liu family outside the room, snorting coldly:
"Since you''re all here today, I''ll take this opportunity to announce something."
"Starting today, Liu Tianyun and Ye Huan will officially take charge of the Liu family!"
The young members couldn''t help but twitch at the corners of their mouths, though they weren''t displeased.
They didn''t dare to be displeased!
A Crown Prince Consort of Huaxia and spouse inheriting the Liu family, who would dare say a word?
...
"Who goes there, halt!"
At the Forensic Bureau in Celestial Sea City, the on-duty police officer shone a shlight, blocking a group of men in ck, his expression very serious.
"Smack!"
The leading man in ck didn''t say a word, swinging his hand and pping the officer tens of meters away, knocking him unconscious.
"Get in there, locate the body and destroy it at once." The lead man in ck ordered coldly.
"Aye!"
Eight men in ck moved at a speed invisible to the naked eye, rushing into the Forensic Bureau.
The earliermotion was not insignificant.
The other on-duty officers inside the bureau had all heard it, and they emerged, shining shlights to check the situation, only to run straight into the men in ck.
They were just about to shout to stop them, but before they could even see the faces of the men in ck, they were all knocked unconscious, lost to the sound of pping, alive or dead unknown.
Five minutester, the men in ck returned to the courtyard.
In unison, "Sir, we searched the entire building but could not find the body."
Couldn''t find it?
The leader of the men in ck pondered the situation.
In the distance, the sound of "dee-doo dee-doo" police sirens echoed through the night sky.
His eyes turned cold, "Go!"
Before his words even fell.
The courtyard of the Forensic Bureau was left with only a few fleeting shadows...
Chapter 416 - 413: The Distressed Huan Ge
"Breaking news, Celestial Sea news sh!"
"An hour ago, at 8:57 p.m., a group of unidentified terrorists stormed into the Celestial Sea Forensic Bureau, ignoring warnings from the on-duty police officers, and forcibly entered the bureau, severely injuring a total of eleven officers."
"The police have issued a red warrant. If residents have any relevant information or clues about the terrorists, they can call 110 to report it. If the information or clues are verified, a reward of 500,000 yuan will be issued."
Listening to the news on the car radio, Ye Huan raised an eyebrow while driving the BMW Mini.
Are terrorists so rampant now? In broad daylight, they crash the police precinct and seriously injure police officers?
"Da Bao... I mean, Xiao Huan, your dad should have gone to handle this matter," said Lilu from the back seat.
Ye Huan nodded, murmuring an acknowledgment.
The police issuing a reward likely means they have no information or clues about the terrorists. Clearly, the surveince was all destroyed.
Able to severely injure eleven on-duty police officers and leave without a trace, these terrorists certainly aren''t ordinary people.
The police contacting the Special Service Bureau for support is only natural.
A quarter of an hour ago, because Liu Aimin was in poor health and so many things had happened that exhausted him...
At Ye Huan''s suggestion, Ye Tiance and his wife exchanged a few simple pleasantries with Liu Aimin, saying they would visit him again in a few days, and then left with Ye Huan.
Ye Tiance then received a phone call and left in a hurry.
Ye Huan drove, taking his "cheap mom" and Liu Tianyun towards the Peni Lakefront.
"Auntie... Mom, will Dad encounter any danger? Those terrorists injured eleven police officers, they seem really formidable."
Liu Tianyun, blushing slightly, sat with Lilu in the back seat and nced at Ye Huan through the rearview mirror to see his reaction. After all, she had outright called Ye Huan''s parents Dad and Mom, which already said a lot.
Unfortunately, Ye Huan''s expression remained unchanged, showing no emotion.
"Don''t worry, your dad is much more formidable than you imagine, he will be fine." Lilu beamed, evidently pleased with Liu Tianyun''s address.
"Mm... that''s good..."
Not seeing any change in Ye Huan''s expression, Liu Tianyun felt a bit disappointed.
But what she didn''t know was.
Ye Huan''s face showed no change, because he noticed Liu Tianyun was watching him.
Inside, he felt a stampede of a thousand Divine Beasts!
Previously, he only suspected, but now he was truly sure!
He was sure Liu Tianyun was genuinely interested in him, truly conquered by his inadvertently exuded charm!
Well then, she outright called his parents Mom and Dad?
Calling them Mom and Dad could be overlooked, but Lilu clearly seemed to love this "daughter-inw," holding hands wherever they went, even sitting in the car, holding hands, and at the Liu Family mansion, saying things like, "In the future, treat me as your mom..."
Is this for real? Is this for real!
Ye Huan couldn''t help but have a few ck lines cross his forehead.
If Lilu and Liu Tianyun got along that well, wouldn''t he be scolded to death by this "cheap mom" when he divorced Liu Tianyun in the future?
Though Brother Huan hadn''t decided to recognize his roots, the fact that Ye Tiance and Lilu were his parents was irrefutable. He didn''t reject them and had epted the existence of a "cheap dad" and "cheap mom."
But if Liu Tianyun and they got along too well, Brother Huan would face more trouble when divorcing her eventually.
Sigh!
Ye Huan was deeply troubled, regretting his first meeting with Liu Tianyun, during which they settled the marriage agreement, he didn''t take the five million "breakup fee" she offered, just for his master''s promised secret technique, and walk away.
Brother Huan believed that if he had taken the money back then and let Liu Tianyun propose a breakup, she would have agreed without hesitation.
Now, Brother Huan didn''t want his master''s secret technique anymore, and this marriage turned hard to dissolve.
It''s agonizing!
Chapter 417 - 414: Give Birth to a Reinforced Company!
"Don''t call me again!"
"You want me to upset the Crown Prince of Huaxia and still expect me to save your life?"
"I can barely save myself, just go die somewhere!"
On National Highway G-01, speeding down the road in a Mazda, Yu Beixuan roared into the phone.
After his outburst, Yu Beixuan abruptly hung up the call and mmed the steering wheel hard.
He truly hated Liu Dandan.
If it weren''t for her, how could he get involved with the Crown Prince of Huaxia, how could he be so oppressed by Ye Tiance and Liluo that he couldn''t breathe, losing such immense face in front of everyone?
Moreover, the moment the news that he offended the Crown Prince and his consort, as well as the Ye and Li families, spreads, he would certainly lose thepetition for the Yu family patriarch position, with no chance of inheriting the Yu family.
The elder generation of the Yu family would never allow someone who has offended the Crown Prince to ascend to the patriarch position, especially considering what happened to the previous patriarch.
Became a vegetative state, unable to wake up for life!
The Yu family was also sanctioned by the joint effort of the Ye and Li families!
On the night the sanction was initiated, the total assets under the Yu family evaporated over 60 billion, and they still feel the pain today!
After putting himself in such a situation, that damn Liu Dandan still shamelessly calls asking him to take her in?
If she hadn''t privately sent him photos of the Crown Prince Consort, would he ever have developed feelings, therebying to the Celestial Sea and offending the Crown Prince couple to the death?
No, that''s not right...
Could Liu Dandan be the mole???
Did she know that Ye Huan is the Crown Prince and Liu Tianyun is the Crown Prince Consort, and took benefits from other juniors in the Yu family to deliberately contact him, pushing him to offend these two bigwigs?
If that''s the case, his matter of offending these two bigwigs would quickly spread across the Capital City and even Huaxia, and the Yu family elders wouldpletely exclude him from the list of candidates for the patriarch.
Yu Beixuan was about to go mad with anger, never expecting to be manipted by a woman like this.
"Crack."
His right hand tightened involuntarily, causing tiny cracks to appear on the surface of the phone.
The more force he applied, the more cracks appeared.
"Ring ring ring."
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Yu Beixuan frowned slightly, reluctantly releasing his grip to look at the phone.
An unknown number?
Taking a deep breath, he suppressed the anger in his heart and answered the call.
The person on the other end spoke first.
With heavily ented Huaxianguage, the person made a shocking statement.
"Yu Beixuan. Do you want to inherit the Yu family?"
Yu Beixuan furrowed his brow tighter, "What do you mean?"
"I ask you, do you want to inherit the Yu family?"
The person asked again.
Yu Beixuan frowned, "Of course."
"In three days, you will be the head of the Yu family."
"In exchange, after the matter is done, have the Yu family submit to me and work for me."
Listening to the calm voice on the other end of the call, Yu Beixuan frowned more tightly.
The implication was that they could easily make him the Yu family patriarch.
Though uncertain of the truth of these words, trying wouldn''t hurt.
If they couldn''t aplish it, it wouldn''t affect him.
If they seeded, it would mean their methods were extraordinary, definitely having significant backing, and Yu Beixuan could be the Yu family patriarch.
In that case, having the Yu family submit to someone with substantial backing and working for them, why not?
After all, if the news of him offending the Crown Prince spreads, his path to inheriting the Yu family would bepletely blocked.
With such an opportunity, at the very least, it''s worth trying.
"Deal." Yu Beixuan replied calmly.
"Beep"
The call ended.
...
Celestial Sea City, Peni Lakefront.
S-01.
At this moment, the vi''s living room was extremely eerie.
"Have you... looked enough?"
"No, I''ve just found my treasure son who''s been missing for over twenty years, no matter how long I look, it''s not enough."
Ye Huan: "..."
He was sitting on the sofa, and facing him was Liluo, her eyes brimming with tears, staring intently at him without blinking.
Every time the glistening teardrops at the corners of her eyes were about to fall, Liu Tianyun, beside her, would timely offer a handkerchief to help wipe them away.
They had been back at the vi for half an hour, and this situation had persisted for half an hour.
Originally, Brother Huan felt a bit unnatural because of Liluo, this ''cheap mom''.
Now being stared at like this, Brother Huan truly felt restless, getting goosebumps all over.
"I... I''m going to sleep!" Ye Huan couldn''t stand the atmosphere any longer and got up after gritting his teeth.
"Sit down!"
Perhaps because of the mother-son rtionship ingrained in their bones, Ye Huan was truly frightened, and sat back down with a head full of ck lines.
"Did I scare you?" After yelling, Lilu regretted it immediately, looking apologetic.
"No, I''m not a child..."
"I actually wish you were a child, so that your mother could give you aplete childhood." Before Ye Huan finished speaking, Lilu sighed in self-me and withdrew her gaze.
Ye Huan smiled, replied perfunctorily, "It''s all in the past, besides, I''m doing quite well now."
"Quite well, you say."
"These years... must have been hard for you."
"Bing the God of ughter, you must have gone through a lot of hardships before, it''s your mother''s fault..."
Before she finished speaking, as if realizing something was wrong, Lilu quickly covered her mouth with her hand.
"Mom, what God of ughter? What are you talking about?" Nearby, Liu Tianyun showed a curious look, blinking her big eyes twice.
Only then did Lilu realize that Ye Huan hadn''t told Liu Tianyun about the Dark World.
She forced a couple of awkwardughs and said, "It''s nothing, just a kind of colloquial expression, meaning that little Huan has gone through a lot of suffering. I read his file, seems like he was adopted and lived in some Jimiw Vige for several years, life must have been tough in the countryside..."
Liu Tianyun looked skeptical, clearly not buying Lilu''s far-fetched exnation, and secretly remembered the term "God of ughter," nning to search it on Baiduter.
Seeing her expression, Lilu quickly changed the subject.
Switching her tone, she looked at Liu Tianyun seriously and said, "Tianyun, get ready to relocate the Liu Family and Tianyun International to the Capital City."
"Huh?"
Lilu''s proposal truly shocked Liu Tianyun, "Is... isn''t it a bit too sudden?"
"Yes, too sudden!"
Ye Huan quickly chimed in, "A matter this significant, we need to think it over."
"What is there to consider? As long as you decide to move, I''ll help you take care of all the follow-up matters," Lilu said unpleasantly.
She really hoped that Liu Tianyun and Ye Huan could move to the Capital City, so that, on one hand, she could see her precious son and daughter-inw every day, and on the other, she really wanted to make up for the past twenty-plus years of what she owed Ye Huan.
But she didn''t know that her son had "something to hide"!
Just kidding, how long have they been together now, and this "mother-inw and daughter-inw" rtionship is already this good.
If they move to the Capital City and this "mother-inw and daughter-inw" stay together all the time, their rtionship will definitely be increasingly "solid," and in this way, Huan bro''s marriage would be out of the question to dissolve.
"No way, we must consider it." Ye Huan''s voice was very firm, and his idea of divorcing Liu Tianyun was very firm too.
"Mom, it is a bit sudden, this matter is a bit big, we need to think about it,"
Tianyun echoed seriously.
Actually, she wasn''t against relocating the Liu Family and Tianyun International to the Capital City, after all, if they moved to the Capital City, Ye Huan and Lilu would obviously spend a lot more time together, and the progress of the mother-son rtionship would also speed up.
But as a wife, even if she was just a temporary marriage contract wife at the moment, she wouldn''t contradict Ye Huan''s view on the spot, especially on such a big matter, contradicting would be disrespecting her man.
Seeing both of them had serious expressions, Lilu was very helpless, "Then you consider it."
"Okay."
"Let''s leave it at that for now." Finally, temporarily dispelling Lilu''s idea of having Liu Tianyun relocate to the Capital City, Ye Huan let out a long breath, and then, while getting up, yawned, "It''s gettingte, you guys should rest early too."
With that, he waved his hand and walked towards the room.
In fact, Huan bro was just very unustomed to the existence of Lilu, the "bargain mom," and even more unustomed to her gaze, which is why he quickly found an excuse to slip away.
"Bang."
The door closed.
Ye Huanpletely disappeared from sight, Liu Tianyun frowned slightly, and she decided to have a good talk with him privately about the relocation to the Capital City.
Even if they don''t relocate the Liu Family and Tianyun International to the Capital City, at least they should move the family to the Capital City. Being together long-term would greatly benefit the progress of the mother-son rtionship.
...
In the second-floor bathroom, in the rtivelyrge bathtub, Liu Tianyun and Liluy side by side.
"Mom, your figure and skin are really good, much better than mine."
Liu Tianyun looked envious.
Lilu''s figure and skin resembled that of a young girl in her twenties, with no traces of age at all,pletely ipatible with her nearly fifty-year-old age.
If she could maintain such looks and figure at fifty...
Seems unlikely.
For a while, Liu Tianyun was even more envious of Lilu.
"Such a sweet mouth, I''m almost fifty, how could my figure and skin be better than yours, a blooming teenage girl?" Liluughed and tapped Liu Tianyun''s lips with her finger.
Then she scanned Liu Tianyun.
Amazed in her heart.
In her younger days, Lilu was also top among the three great beauties of the Capital City.
But now she realized that even in her prime, she couldn''tpare with Liu Tianyun.
Liu Tianyun''s figure was as perfect as it gets.
Voluptuous where needed, perky where needed.
Her entire body shaped like an S curve.
Such a great figure.
Having a whole battalion would be no problem.
Lilu nodded with satisfaction.
This made Liu Tianyun''s face red, almost able to drip blood, extremely embarrassed.
Noticing this, Lilu diverted her gaze and changed the topic, smiling: "Tianyun, you haven''t told him that you knew little Huan from the orphanage when you were children, have you?"
"Not yet, I... I n to find a good opportunity to tell him." Liu Tianyun blushingly shook her head.
Chapter 419 - 416: Xie Guangkun
Ye Huan''s face darkened as he pressed, "How did he make things difficult for you?"
"He..."
This time, before Li Ying could speak.
The HR supervisor "answered" for her.
"Li Ying, why are you leaving in such a hurry?"
"I told you, have a meal with me, watch a movie, and I''ll help you get the job!"
"Even if you have no work experience, and can''t use aputer, that''s not a problem. I can teach you ''hand-in-hand'', and we can even discuss your sry!"
"Get lost!" Li Ying retorted bluntly, gritting her teeth as she spat out.
They''re all adults, how could she not know that the HR supervisor was insinuating at wanting to score with her under the guise of a meal and a movie?
"Li Ying, why are you talking like that?!"
"Tianyun International has such good benefits, so many people want to get in but can''t."
"Now, just have a meal and... watch a movie with me, and I can get you the job. Don''t waste this valuable opportunity, don''t keep being ungrateful."
The HR supervisor had a face full of feigned sincerity.
"Ungrateful? I asked her toe to thepany to process her employment, why are you still giving her a hard time?" Ye Huan''s tone was unfriendly, as he nced at the HR supervisor''s badge.
HR Department Supervisor: Xie Guangkun.
Xie Guangkun frowned, since joining Tianyun International three days ago, he had been exalted as the HR department''s supervisor.
His father was the head of HR the minister of the HR department. The father and son duo controlled the fate of all employees besides the CEO and vice president. Many employees gave him gifts to curry favor with him.
Now, there''s actually someone talking to him in this manner? Someone daring to question why he''s making things difficult for Li Ying?
Who are you? So arrogant, do you think you''re the CEO or the vice president? Just because you called someone for an interview, HR has to hire them?
Xie Guangkun was very displeased, casting an irritated nce at the person before him.
Seeing him in a security guard''s uniform, his lips curled upward, "Kid, are you the Ye Huan Li Ying mentioned? The one who asked her toe here for employment, right?"
"Is there a problem?" Ye Huan replied coolly.
"Of course, there''s a problem!"
Xie Guangkun''s face suddenly turned grim, and he barked, "You think you can let anyone work here just because you want them to?"
"Yeah, so what?" Ye Huan countered.
Xie Guangkun: "..."
He was somewhat bewildered.
Does this person not know he''s the HR supervisor? How dare he speak like this, isn''t he afraid of being fired?
At this moment, he noticed the receptionist giving him signals, seemingly telling him to shut up quickly.
The receptionist was kindly reminding him, seeing that Xie Guangkun had only been in his position for three days and didn''t recognize the improbably ranked "head security guard and vice president" before him.
But Xie Guangkun didn''t care at all.
He scrutinized Ye Huan further, seeing through many things.
His posture was upright, his aura evidently different from ordinary security guards.
He must be a tough guy.
The receptionist signaling him was probably afraid of offending this tough guy, leading to getting beaten or worse.
But he didn''t care, who was he? The HR supervisor who held the power over employees'' fate!
If this security guard dared to make a move, he dared to fire him on the spot!
In all of Celestial Sea, where can a security guard receive better treatment than at Tianyun International? This kid couldn''t possibly not fear being fired!
Having been at Tianyun International for three days, he deeply realized how awesome having power was.
Any female employee or secretary he fancied, he called into the office and took down directly, if they dared to resist or refuse, he''d directly threaten them with firing, none of these female employees could bear to give up such great benefits at Tianyun International, so they all reluctantly agreed to his unreasonable demands, tears in their eyes but no choice.
If even the HR department employees were like this, what could Ye Huan, just a security guard, do? Hearing the threat of being fired, he would definitely be terrified and beg for forgiveness!
Xie Guangkun''s lips curved into an amused smirk, as he then cast a few nces at the receptionist.
The quality of female employees in the HR department wasn''t bad, but still, he was tired of it.
But the receptionist was different, as thepany''s front face, her figure far surpassed other female employees at thepany, far better than the female secretaries in the HR department.
Xie Guangkun felt it necessary to apply absolute power, to trample the tough guy in the receptionist''s eyes, namely Ye Huan, to demonstrate his prowess and win over the receptionist''s heart, thus taking her down.
"Kid, if you don''t want to get fired, I''d advise you..." Xie Guangkun pointed to the door, sneering, "I''d advise you, go guard the gate, stop yapping here with me!"
"Supervisor Xie, please don''t yap... please stop talking, this is Ye Huan, Captain Ye!" The receptionist couldn''t bear it any longer and mentioned.
Captain Ye?
Xie Guangkun froze.
No wonder his aura was different from ordinary security guards, turns out he was a little manager.
Judging by the receptionist''s reaction, clearly very "afraid" of this tough guy security captain.
Xie Guangkun was more determined than ever to use his power to tame Ye Huan, to trample him underfoot.
As long as he could make this kid obedient, and trample this kid underfoot...
He could make the receptionist understand, the tough guy in her eyes was nothing in his, Xie Guangkun''s, eyes, thereby winning her heart.
He could also let Li Ying know, who was actually more formidable, him, Xie Guangkun, or this security captain, letting her understand who actually held the power to let her join Tianyun International.
"Let me tell you, kid."
"As the security captain, at most you handle ordinary security guards guarding the gates, your biggest power is introducing someone for an interview as a security guard. But! It''s just an interview, my HR department can still decide whether or not to hire the person you introduced!"
"You don''t have the authority to let people randomly join thepany, understand? Those who have this power, besides the two big bosses in the President''s Office, it''s only my father, the HR minister Xie Yongqiang, and me, Xie Guangkun!"
Xie Guangkun soliloquized, his gaze shifting to Li Ying, arrogantly said: "Li Ying, today even if you have no work experience, or can''t use aputer, even if you have over ten years of work experience and jump on aputer like a pro, without my approval, don''t even think about joining Tianyun International. You want to join Tianyun International? Only by apanying me for meals and movies, and after thete-night movie, having a life chat with me, understand?"
What he said was quite explicit.
Clearly stating if she doesn''t let him have his way, then she can forget about joining Tianyun International.
"You..." Li Ying fumed, ring.
She didn''t want to make things difficult for Ye Huan either.
She wanted to leave, but Ye Huan grabbed her arm.
Ye Huan didn''t waste words with him anymore, directly taking out his phone, found Liu Tianyun in his contacts, and dialed.
"Hello? I need someone hired, HR is not allowing it, deal with it, the person to be hired is named Li Ying."
With that, Ye Huan hung up.
Xie Guangkun almost burst outughing on the spot.
This kid is really amusing, in this situation, still pretending to call with a fake phone and show off?
People HR refuses to hire, can only be hired by the CEO or vice president!
This kid, just a security captain, actually tries to contact the CEO or vice president?
Time to let him know what is truly cool, what true power is!
Xie Guangkun took out his phone, dialed.
"Hello, Dad, there''s a kid named Ye Huan pretending to act cool here!"
"This kid, just a security captain, actually saying he can let anyone join Tianyun International if he wants, isn''t it ridiculous?"
"Just move a finger, and help me fire him!"
"What? You''re in a meeting with the CEO? Haha, great, then let the CEO know and fire him!"
"Immediately? Good, good, make sure to fire this kid!"
"By the way, after he''s fired, we can help this beauty, who he couldn''t get into thepany, join, and then talk about life and dreams with her, this beauty''s figure, tsk tsk..."
"Alright, let''s do that!"
...
No old tropes, surprises await, feel free to enjoy!

...
No old tropes, surprises await, feel free to enjoy!
Chapter 420 - 417: Dismissal Order!
After hanging up the phone, Xie Guangkun put down his mobile, his lips curling into a self-satisfied smirk.
Seeing Ye Huan''s unchanged expression, Xie Guangkun couldn''t help but feel somewhat baffled.
What''s going on, is this kid really not afraid of getting fired?
If this kid isn''t scared, there''s really no way to make him obediently be a doorman.
But never mind!
Firing him would still demonstrate my power, wouldn''t it? Still show my might, right?
"Miss, don''t panic!"
"This kid might be a tough one, but in front of me, Xie Guangkun, he''s nothing!"
"Rest assured, I can have him fired immediately."
Xie Guangkun, full of pride, once again ignored the warning look from the receptionist.
The receptionist was truly speechless.
She had seen people with low IQs before, but never to such an extent!
Who is Ye Huan? Not to mention that General Ye Tianze and the former chairman of Li Corporation sought him out as a rtive, just his position in thepany...
Head of Security and also Vice President!
Moreover, he is the CEO''s husband!
HR Minister? What is an HR Managerpared to him!?
The receptionist nced at Ye Huan, and seeing him shake his head slowly, decided to stop warning Xie Guangkun.
But herck of action was perceived by Xie Guangkun as her "relief" and no longer fearing Ye Huan.
His recent words likely filled her with a sense of "security," haha!
He nned to win her over tonight!
In his excitement, Xie Guangkun gave Ye Huan a contemptuous look.
He then turned his head back and gave Li Ying onest piece of advice:
"Li Ying, let me tell you, apart from the President and the Vice President, only my dad and I have the authority to hire employees at will. This security captain named Ye Huan is just pretending to be badass and is about to be fired soon!"
"In thispany, if the President and Vice President are the top two, then my father and I are immediately below them!"
"If you know what''s good for you, you''ll throw yourself into my arms quickly, so we can help you get a job. Got it?"
Xie Guangkun said, unabashed with his lecherous gaze, full of wicked smiles.
Clearly, he and his dad often yed the ''Father-Son Duo'' strategy in action.
"You..."
Li Ying, furious, pointed at him, gritting her teeth.
Then she stomped her foot, pulled Ye Huan aside, and full of apology and self-me, said, "Brother Ye, forget about my job matter for now. I''m really sorry for implicating you in this..."
Ye Huan patted her back forfort, smiled, and said, "It''s okay, don''t worry, you''ll definitely get the job."
On the side, Xie Guangkun was truly not at ease.
Even now, this kid was still using sweet words to trick Li Ying, making her believe he could get her into Tianyun International, damn!
Pissed off but restraining himself from blowing up.
He wanted to crush Ye Huan under the facts and p him hard in the face!
Who besides the President and Vice President would dare to go against their father and son duo?
This kid is truly fearless!
...
At Tianyun International, in the meeting room.
As the cooperation with Li Corporation was about to start, Liu Tianyun gathered the senior management in the office to assign tasks.
Receiving Ye Huan''s call, her eyebrows shot up.
Li Ying? Clearly a woman''s name, could it be his mistress?
No choice, got to ept it!
The meeting room was extremely simply furnished, with just arge rectangr table and an air conditioner, ten chairs, and a projector.
Sitting at the head of the long table, Liu Tianyun put down her phone and looked at the first bald man on her left.
"Minister Xie."
"President."
The bald man just put down his phone and spoke in unison with Liu Tianyun.
The bald man was the newly appointed Human Resources Minister three days ago C Xie Yongqiang.
"What''s the matter, you speak first." Liu Tianyun said faintly.
It was her first time meeting the new HR Minister, Xie Yongqiang.
Before, when she was in Suzhou, she called her secretary Tang Yao, fully delegating the affairs of Tianyun International to her.
After dismissing Zhao Zhenhai, Su Qingqing temporarily took on the role of HR Minister, but then she soon resigned, leaving the HR Minister position vacant for a while.
With Liu Tianyun absent these days, Tang Yao had brought in and appointed Xie Yongqiang from outside thepany as the HR Minister.
Judging by his resume, Xie Yongqiang only had a primary school education and served time in prison for fighting, and had never worked in anyrgepany before.
Normally, with such a resume, he would be rejected even from applying to clean the toilets at Tianyun International, let alone being an HR Minister whose power was only second to the President and Vice-President.
But Liu Tianyun trusted that Tang Yao''s choice of Xie Yongqiang was not baseless, so she decided to try him out for a while first, and if it didn''t work out, she would dismiss him.
"Oh, President, I just received a call, where someone reported a certain employee, saying that his conduct was extremely rampant and arrogant, almost describable as heinous!"
"Not only did he leave his work post without permission, but he also ignored reprimands from his superiors on ount of having a bit of power, and even attempted to assault his superiors."
"This person is exceptionally vile, with extremely arrogant conduct, and if left in thepany, would definitely be like a rat turd spoiling the whole pot of soup!"
"I propose to have this person fired right away!"
Xie Yongqiang''s expression was very serious as he directly used the security captain of a slew of baseless charges.
Daring to bully his son Xie Guangkun, it''s sheer liveliness intolerance.
"Do we really have such people in ourpany?" Liu Tianyun''s eyebrows knit tighter, sternly saying, "Who is this person? If investigations confirm this, he must be dismissed."
The array of executives nodded in agreement.
"President, there''s no need to investigate, it is absolutely true!"
"This person is named Ye Huan, seems to be the security captain of thepany."
"The one scolding him was my son, Xie Guangkun. Ye Huan, this person, was negligent during working hours and was utterly arrogant despite my son''s scolding, with zero repentance. Such a person is nothing but a vile rat turd contaminating ourpany''s ethos!"
"He must be dismissed!"
Xie Yongqiang resolutely spoke, continuously thumping the table to demonstrate his ''outrage.''
Suddenly, the meeting room fell into heavy silence.
Sitting directly across from Xie Yongqiang, Tang Yao, who was already fairly pale, turned ghastly pale.
The meeting room held a total of ten people.
Apart from Liu Tianyun, there were nine executives.
Some were gleeful; some mournful; others looked at Xie Yongqiang as if he were a fool;
Xie Yongqiang wondered what was up with these executives, why were their looks toward him so strange?
"Who did you just say was disrupting thepany order?" Liu Tianyun coldly asked.
"Oh, Ye Huan!"
"That rat turd must be eradicated!"
Just as he finished speaking, Xie Yongqiang felt a chill race from his feet right to the top of his head.
Turning his gaze to Liu Tianyun, he couldn''t help but shiver.
Damn.
What''s going on?
Why did the President suddenly change her expression?
Liu Tianyun''s face was coated with frost, then she took out an A4 paper from a folder, drew out a ck pen, and began writing swiftly on the paper.
"Termination Order!"
Seeing those three words at the top of the A4 paper, Xie Yongqiang exhaled with relief.
He thought the President was angry because of Ye Huan, what a false rm, wasn''t he still getting fired after all?
Anyone who dared to oppose his son in thepany, this was their fate!
Xie Yongqiang wore a smug face.
The next second, he shuddered.
"Bang!"
Liu Tianyun mmed the A4 paper heavily on the table.
Her voice was frigid to the extreme, as if casting one into an ice pit.
"I hereby announce the dismissal of HR Minister - Xie Yongqiang!"
"Dismissal of HR supervisor - Xie Guangkun!"
"And list both on the cklist, never again to enter Tianyun International!"
"And, notify all sectors, impose a universal industry ban!"
Chapter 421 - 418: Tang Yaos Kneeling Plea
Xie Yongqiang was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion, "President, are you mistaken? You should fire that troublesome person, not me and my son."
"Xie Yongqiang, don''t talk about your son, who is just a small HR department manager; even you as the HR director have no right to instruct President Ye!"
The cold sneers from otherpany executives hit Xie Yongqiang with sudden realization.
President Ye?
Tianyun International only has two presidents: President Liu Tianyun and the vice president whom he hasn''t met yet.
Could it be that this head of security is the mysterious vice president?
No wonder these people had such a strange reaction when Ye Huan was scolded.
It''s said that thepany''s vice president is still Liu Tianyun''s husband.
This Ye guy hasn''t half the ability, managing to win over a woman like Liu Tianyun.
For some reason, upon hearing the news of being fired, Xie Yongqiang was only slightly startled at first, but quickly returned to normal.
Even...
"Click."
Pressing the lighter''s button, after lighting a Hongtashan cigarette, Xie Yongqiang took a deep drag, exhaled a smoke ring, "Are you sure you want to fire me and my son? We are irreceable talents."
"Get out."
Liu Tianyun coldly spat out a sentence, pointing outside the door.
"s, what short-sightedness, to actually miss out on two great figures like me and my son."
Xie Yongqiang exhaled a long smoke ring towards Liu Tianyun''s face, then slowly stood up and swaggered out of the meeting room, seemingly unconcerned about being fired.
After the smoke cleared from her face, Liu Tianyun slowly opened her eyes, full of anger.
Just then, Tang Yao stood up and said, "President, I need to go to the restroom."
With that, she hurriedly ran out of the meeting room.
She dashed in just as the elevator doors closed.
"Oh, Secretary Tang, what brings you here?" Xie Yongqiang smoked, his mouth curling up, as if predicting Tang Yao would follow him.
"You Don''t worry, I''ll get you back your position as HR director. Please, give me some time, okay?" Tang Yao''s tone was almost pleading, appearing pitiful.
"That won''t do."
"Secretary Tang, you know my time is precious. So, there are two choices for you." Xie Yongqiang continued.
"One, marry my son;"
"The second one!" Tang Yao didn''t even think and directly refused.
Xie Yongqiang''s face turned displeased, but he didn''t explode, taking a deep drag, extinguishing the cigarette butt, his voice much lower, "The second option is to reinstate me and my son to our original positions today, or your family will suffer. If it exceeds one day, I''ll chop off one of your dad''s hands; another day, I''ll chop off one of your mom''s hands; another day, I''ll chop off your dad''sst hand;"
"Can you give me some more time, three days three days are enough!" Tang Yao''s voice trembled, directly kneeling on the ground.
"Three days?" Xie Yongqiang looked down at her, mocking, "Secretary Tang, actually you don''t have to care about those deadbeat family members, you don''t need to sacrifice so much for them, nor do you need to bargain with me here, after all, the debts they owe shouldn''t be carried by you. But I''ll tell you, if it exceeds the time limit, I''ll cut off all of your parents'' legs and feet, and finally, I''ll chop your eight-year-old sister into pieces and throw it into a meat grinder to feed the dogs"
"Enough, I I''ll handle it!" Tang Yao still knelt, eyes filled with tears, gritting her teeth.
With the corners of his mouth curling up even more, Xie Yongqiang said, "If you can''t handle it, you can still choose the first condition I gave."
As his words fell, the elevator doors opened, and Tang Yao quickly got up.
Xie Yongqiang stepped out.
"Dad, how did it go? Did you get rid of that guy?" Seeing Xie Yongqianging, Xie Guangkun''s face lit up.
"What for, do you know who you''re messing with?" Xie Yongqiang nced at Ye Huan, faintly saying, "This guy is not only the head of security but also Tianyun International''s vice president and the president''s husband. You''ve messed with someone you shouldn''t have, understand? We''ve been fired!"
Xie Yongqiang irritably tapped Xie Guangkun''s head, grabbing his cor and walked out of Tianyun International.
Xie Guangkun looked stunned: "..."
Meanwhile.
In Tianyun International''spany hall, Li Ying''s appointment letter arrived.
"Vice President''s exclusive secretary."
"Sry of five thousand a month, five social insurances and one housing fund."
"Signed by: Liu Tianyun."
Li Ying was very excited, from Xie Yongqiang''s words, she could tell that Ye Huan was the vice president, she was practically Ye Huan''s secretary now?
Ye Huan''s eyebrows raised multiple times, not understanding what Liu Tianyun was up to, and with breakfast he brought for her in hand, Brother Huan decided to go up and ask her.
This time, Tang Yao came over, pulling his arm and took him to the security office.
Once inside, Tang Yao locked the door.
Then.
"Thump."
She knelt on the ground, sobbing, "Ye Huan, I''m... I''m begging you, can you... can you help me? I... I''m truly begging you, please, I beg you..."
Chapter 422 - 419 Haihui District
"What happened?" Ye Huan frowned, trying to lift her up, but repeatedly failed.
"Can you... can you promise me first?"
"I''m begging you, I''m really begging you!"
Tang Yao remained kneeling, refusing to rise.
"What exactly is going on?" Ye Huan asked, his voice steady.
"You..." Tang Yao was sobbing uncontrobly: "Can you... can you let the president reinstate Xie Yongqiang and his son to their original positions, just for a few days? Once I''ve resolved my issue, they can be fired again, okay, I''m begging you!"
Ye Huan frowned even deeper and asked, "What exactly happened? Tell me, maybe I can help you."
"No need... no need, just help me with this, okay?" Tang Yao''s eyes shimmered with tears, her makeup ruined, looking pitifully helpless.
It''s no exaggeration to say that no man could see her like this without feeling heartache.
But Brother Huan...
Ye Huan sat on the sofa, crossed his legs, raised an eyebrow, and snorted coldly, "Little white rabbit, although we have a good rtionship, Xie Yongqiang''s son did cause me a lot of ''trouble'', so how could I let Liu Tianyun reinstate him?"
"Just... just a few days!"
"Just a few days, okay!"
"Once I resolve my issue, you can fire them, okay?"
Tang Yao crawled before Ye Huan, her teary peach blossom eyes staring straight at Ye Huan, pleading, "If you... if you help me with this, I will be at your service forever!"
"Be at my service?"
Ye Huan wagged his finger, his gaze sweeping over Tang Yao, the corner of his mouth curling up, "There are plenty who want to be at my service, I don''t need you, but you can be something else for me..."
"What is it, just tell me!" Tang Yao urged impatiently, cutting off Ye Huan.
Ye Huan smacked his lips twice, winking, "A secret lover."
"I really misjudged you, you scum!"
Tang Yao suddenly exploded, biting her teeth, cursing, and then got up, fists clenched, and stormed out angrily.
"Bang!"
The door mmed loudly.
The curve on Ye Huan''s lips slowly disappeared.
About ten secondster, he narrowed his eyes slightly, stood up, and also walked out of the security office.
After following her out, he saw Tang Yao hailing a cab and leaving thepany.
Ye Huan stopped a cab behind and got into the front passenger seat, saying, "Driver, follow that car in front."
...
"Dad, what''s going on, is that guy really the vice president? Or Liu Tianyun''s husband?"
"Nonsense, I caught that guy in the conference room and gave him a good scolding, and then got fired by Liu Tianyun, you good-for-nothing really have no foresight, now look, we both got fired because of you."
Although Xie Yongqiang''s words had a scolding tone, his expression was very calm, obviously unfazed by being dismissed.
In the dimly lit room, Xie Yongqiang and his son sat across from each other at a table.
The old, worn table held a te of peanuts and two bottles of Tsingtao beer, and the father and son would asionally grab a handful of peanuts and take a sip of beer.
"Gulp."
Xie Guangkun downed a bottle in one go.
After finishing the beer, he felt very ashamed.
All this time, that guy wasn''t just the security team leader, he was also the vice president.
The vice president was indeed above the HR department head, thepany''s second-inmand, naturally possessing the power to hire and fire.
This guy really can get anyone into Tianyun International, damn it!
Conquering him and showing off in front of the receptionist? It''s more like losing face in front of the receptionist!
Xie Guangkun understood, the receptionist was signaling him to warn him not to offend Ye Huan, not because Ye Huan was good at fighting, but because his identity was impressive.
Sigh, why would a vice president have a position as a security team leader? Trying to keep a low profile doesn''t mean you have to go this far!
Xie Guangkun looked very dissatisfied, and said with some reluctance, "Dad, can we remedy this? The days at Tianyun International were toofortable, not only could we get so many women without spending money, but you also got over a million each month, and I got tens of thousands in sry."
"Don''t worry, I''ve got that beggar Tang Yao working on it, I told her if she doesn''t get us back into Tianyun International by today, I''ll chop her family''s hands off."
Xie Yongqiang looked casual, but his words were extremely ruthless.
Causing two figures hiding in a dark corner of the room to shiver violently...
...
Celestial Sea City, Haihui District.
Thirty years ago, when Huaxia officially opened up, Haihui District was the first area in Celestial Sea City to reap the benefits, with countlessmercial buildings rising from the ground, recing the old tile houses.
The top hospitals, parks, and schools in Celestial Sea were also located here, and countless domestic and international brand supermarkets also settled here.
It can be said that Haihui District was indeed the "rich area" of Celestial Sea thirty years ago and the most prosperous part of the city.
Owning amercial house here was a dream for many families.
But now...
Unless a family''s economic conditions are really very tight, no one wants to live here anymore!
Because in the past thirty years, Haihui District has not kept up with Celestial Sea''s economic development, not a single bit of the district has changed, and the once coveted luxurymercial buildings are now dpidated.
The once top hospitals and schools,rge shopping malls, have also withdrawn, leaving a mess behind.
Now, Haihui District has be known as the ''slum'' area of Celestial Sea City, with all sorts of people mixed together and numerous small gangs, and the public security is very poor.
Except for old men and women, those walking or standing on the streets are all mboyantly colored-haired, scantily dressed punks.
Tang Yao walked toward the crowded apartments, her expression tense and even shivering slightly.
The reason is simple.
Her pitiful face and striking figure had clearly attracted the gaze of many thugs.
The lewd looks from the thugs were not concealed, and some went as far as to whistle at her lightly and flippantly.
Every time she heard the whistles, Tang Yao shivered unconsciously, her face turning even paler, and she quickened her pace toward the buildings.
Reaching an alley littered with garbage and swarming with flies, Tang Yao pinched her nose, struggling to suppress the urge to vomit violently, and walked into the alley, then ascended the stairs from a building entrance.
"Yo, Secretary Tang, what''s up, not taking care of business anding home instead?"
Chapter 423 - 420: What does it mean? Literal meaning!
The old wooden door creaked open, and Xie Yongqiang spotted the visitor, a yful smirk curling at his lips.
"Uncle Xie, I... I beg you, please give me some more time, okay?"
"I promise I''ll gather the money to repay you within three days!"
Tang Yao clenched her hands into fists, her face full of pleading.
The smirk on Xie Yongqiang''s lips grew more pronounced, yet he coldly snorted: "What do you mean? You can''t get us back into Tianyun International?"
Tang Yao''s face turned deathly pale, and she nodded weakly.
Xie Yongqiang and his son picked the worst possible person to provoke, getting on the wrong side of Ye Huan, the vice president and husband to the CEO.
Tianyun International was not publicly listed; the two presidents were the absolute bosses, wielding unparalleled power. Without their approval, Tang Yao, a mere employee, had no way to get Xie Yongqiang and his son reinstated in thepany.
"So you''re saying you can gather that much money within three days?" Xie Yongqiang''s voice turned low.
"I... I can!"
"Please just give me three days, okay!"
Tang Yao implored.
"Ridiculous, Tang Yao, even if you gave all your savings to pay off your family''s debt, it would cover less than a tenth. The remaining amount is astronomical for you. How do you expect to gather so much in three days, hmm? Seduce a rich boy, swindle money from them?"
A click echoed as Xie Yongqiang lit a cigarette, took a puff, and then sneered: "Enough with the nonsense. Let me tell you, if you marry my son and be his woman, I''ll waive your family''s debt."
This time, Tang Yao did not immediately refuse because... she was in despair.
She couldn''t find a better way to rescue her family from this devil''s clutches.
The second option given by Xie Yongqiang was beyond her power; she had no authority to rehire Xie Yongqiang and Xie Guangkun back to thepany.
She was utterly desperate.
Xie Guangkun was notorious for his crimes in the slums,mitting acts like kidnapping women, assaulting the elderly, murder, and arson... there was nothing he wouldn''t do!
Marrying such a thug, Tang Yao would rather die!
But... what choice did she have!
If she were to die, what would happen to her parents and sister?
Tang Yao took a deep breath, her long nails digging into her palms, her voice trembling as she spoke, "I... I ep..."
"No!!!"
From the corner of the room, a bound woman, mustering unknown strength, spat out the dirty sock stuffed in her mouth, shouting, "Yao Yao, don''t worry about us, you can''t marry someone like that!"
"Sister... sister, don''t worry about us, don''t agree to these two bastards'' terms, Xiaoxiao doesn''t need you to save us!" The little girl nestled in the woman''s arms also spit out the dirty sock, her eyes welling with tears as she cried out.
Xie Yongqiang and his son paid no mind to their cries, both wearing a sly smile, believing that Tang Yao would make the "right" choice.
Tang Yao lowered her head, once again speaking in despair, "I... ep..."
Before she could finish the word "ept,"
Xie Yongqiang and his son already began to smile lecherously.
The next second...
Anguid voice interrupted Tang Yao.
"Little bunny, you, what are you thinking?"
"Willing to marry such an ugly thing, but not willing to be my lover?"
"At least with me, you wouldn''t be nauseated, right?"
Tang Yao slowly turned her head, looking behind her, seeing the rxed figure leaning against the door, and froze.
Ye Huan?
Why is he here!
"Kid, how dare you insult me!?"
Xie Guangkun mmed the table, furious, having already been humiliated by Ye Huan at Tianyun International, and now being insulted for his looks ignited his anger.
He had long been sensitive about his looks, having a t nose, small eyes, and sunken cheekbones, his appearance being hideous, and hated anyonementing on his face.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, ring viciously at Ye Huan, even rolling up his sleeves.
Clearly, he intended to teach Ye Huan a lesson.
But Xie Yongqiang reached out, stopping him.
And looking at Ye Huan, he discontentedly asked, "President Ye, what did you mean by those words about my son just now?"
"Literal meaning." Ye Huan responded casually.
"You..."
Xie Guangkun was about to curse, but was stopped again.
Xie Yongqiang''s face twisted with irritation, but he held back.
After all, Ye Huan was Liu Tianyun''s husband, the Prince Consort of the Liu Family, and the Four Great Families were not something small gangs like theirs could afford to offend.
However, if Ye Huan really had a death wish, Haihui District was a chaotic ce, and he wouldn''t mind killing Ye Huan and framing another gang for it.
Xie Yongqiang nced at Xie Guangkun and blinked twice.
This was obviously a signal, and Xie Guangkun nodded slightly, suppressing his anger while secretly taking out his phone and sending a text.
"President Ye, this is not the Liu Family, nor Tianyun International, I advise you..." Xie Yongqiang coldly spoke, enunciating each word, "Be-care-ful-what-you-say-and-do!"
"Are you threatening me?" Ye Huan asked with a yful expression.
"Not really, just advising you, President Ye, not to consider every ce as your home, and definitely don''t speak rashly in ces that aren''t your home, because if something unexpected happens... it wouldn''t be good to leave your beautiful wife alone." Xie Yongqiang sneered, tossing a couple of peanuts into his mouth.
The threat was obvious.
Ye Huan didn''t bother to continue the pointless chatter.
He pulled out another chair from beside the table, sat down, and casually asked, "How much does she owe you?"
"Oh." Xie Yongqiang showed a trace of mockery on his face, "President Ye, having such a beautiful wife like President Liu isn''t enough, now you want to y the hero saving the beauty to win Secretary Tang''s heart? You''re quite the phnderer."
"You talk too much." Ye Huan''s eyes gradually turned cold.
"Since President Ye has the intention of ying the hero, I''ll indirectly facilitate your good deed."
"The Tang Family owes me, not much."
Xie Yongqiang held up three fingers, grinning, "Thirty million."
"What!" On the side, Tang Yao''s eyes widened, "Wasn''t it twelve million?"
"Twelve million, I wasn''t charging interest at all, twenty percent interest per day, round it up to twenty-five million isn''t too much, and just now, your dad borrowed another hundred thousand from me, saying he could return five millionter, so it totals to thirty million."
"You lent my father more money? And borrowing one hundred thousand to repay five million, with such high interest?" Tang Yao red at Xie Yongqiang, feeling furious.
"Ah, Tang Yao, you''re mistaken there. Your father kneeled and begged me for it, he set the interest, iming he''d definitely repay the five million. Your dad and I go way back, over a decade of debt rtions, the ''bond'' is deep. When hees to me to borrow money to ''chase his dream,'' of course I''d lend it to him, don''t you think?" Xie Yongqiang''s face bore an even more mocking expression.
Tang Yao couldn''t believe it.
Her questioning gaze shifted to the corner.
Seeing the mother and daughter both nodding in despair, a fierce hatred surged on Tang Yao''s face, she truly felt there was no saving her father, Tang Dongqiang.
No wonder the corner only had her mother and sister; Tang Dongqiang borrowed another hundred thousand in high-interest loan to gamble on boxing matches!
Even with the family in such a state, in this dire situation, he abandoned his wife and daughter here to gamble on boxing? Is he not afraid of his wife and daughter suffering at the hands of Xie Yongqiang and his son, who have tormented and killed many women in the slums!
Tang Yao was fed up with her father, Tang Dongqiang.
Turning her head back, she saw Ye Huan withdrawing a bank card from his pocket with two fingers and tossing it onto the table.
"Three million on this card."
Chapter 424 - 421: Greed? A Slash to the Throat!
"President Ye, you really are generous, thirty million, just to win over this beauty?"
Xie Yongqiang reluctantly epted the bank card, feeling somewhat shocked.
These rich young masters... are just toovish!
"It''s none of your business. All you need to do is take your son and disappear from our sight," Ye Huan said calmly.
"Kid, you''re too arrogant!" Xie Guangkun wanted to skin Ye Huan alive.
This time, Xie Yongqiang didn''t stop him.
There was a hint of excitement in his eyes.
When Ye Huan just pulled out the bank card from his pocket, Xie Yongqiang clearly saw that there were at least ten other bank cards in his pocket.
Casually pulling out one was thirty million...
With those ten cardsbined, there''s surely a hundred million...
A billionaire!
The more he thought about it, the more excited Xie Yongqiang became.
In his excitement, his eyes turned vicious.
In a slum like Haihui District, if Ye Huan is done away with, the Liu Family won''t find out it was him for a while. He''d have enough time to take his son to another city, or even another country, and live a carefree life...
Not bad...
"Tap. Tap. Tap."
The sound of hurried footsteps approached.
More than ten thugs barged in, each holding a gleaming knife.
They were obviously called by Xie Guangkun''s message.
The gleaming knives reflected a chilling light, scaring Tang Yao and her mother and sister into trembling.
Xie Yongqiang''s lips curled into a ruthless smile.
Ye Huan remained unfazed, "What do you mean by this?"
"What do I mean? President Ye, don''t you understand the saying ''Wealth should not be disyed''? As the saying goes, ''Man dies for wealth, birds die for food.'' Those bank cards left in your pocket, Mr. Xie here finds them very tempting..." Xie Yongqiang rose to his feet with a smile, signaling with his hand.
"Hahaha, kid, you''re dead today for sure." Xie Guangkun came to his senses, realizing his dad was going to attack Ye Huan ruthlessly, and immediatelyughed sinisterly.
The thugs'' eyes all turned towards Ye Huan, filled with murderous intent.
"What, you nning to silence me?" Ye Huan rose unhurriedly, with an amused look.
"Huff"
A puff of smoke was blown out as Xie Yongqiang waved his hand again, answering with both action and words.
"Don''t spare anyone in this room, stab them all to death."
He said, leading Xie Guangkun outside and closing the door.
Inside, the thugs raised their gleaming knives with cold smiles, stepping towards Ye Huan inch by inch.
"Bang"
Ye Huan suddenly sprang up, swung a chair, bashing one thug''s head open and bleeding, rendering him unconscious.
"Shit, this kid is a tough one."
"Stop pretending, move fast, everyone attack, stab him to death!"
The thugs quickly regrouped, with sinister eyes, charging at Ye Huan together!
Over ten knives stabbed towards Ye Huan simultaneously!
Ye Huan sidestepped, dodging a lethal strike from a thug on the left, then suddenly reached out with his right hand, grabbing the knife from their hand.
Then he kicked out!
"Puh!" The kicked thug spurted a mouthful of blood, crashed into the wall, and passed out.
Meanwhile, the other ten knives all stabbed "into" him, and all the thugsughed out loud.
The next second, they were dumbfounded!
Just 0.01 millimeters away from his body, Ye Huan suddenly dodged back.
His speed was such that only the afterimage of his movement could be seen!
"Swipe!"
Ye Huan swung the knife, and the thug clutched his throat, falling to the ground, bleeding non-stop.
These thugs were executing extremely ruthless killing moves, intending to kill everyone in the room. Naturally, Ye Huan couldn''t hold back either.
"Kid, go to hell!" Suddenly, a thug at Ye Huan''s side shouted, stabbing out!
Ye Huan, neither slow nor fast, spun the knife swiftly between his fingers, then suddenly shed upwards to the right.
"Thud."
The de of the knife in his hand was directly chopped off, the thug''s eyes widening.
Before he could remain in shock, Ye Huan clenched his left hand into a fist and swung out fiercely!
"Bang!!!"
The thug''s skull immediately caved in, letting out a spine-chilling scream before copsing, dead as a doornail.
The fate of theirrade left the remaining seven front-facing thugs terrified, their hands holding knives shaking uncontrobly, their legs turning to jelly.
Dear god!
A tough character!
This is definitely a tough character!
"Big brother... we can talk this out!"
"Let''s... let''s discuss it, can we just talk?"
"Please... Spare us, we can give you money..."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Ye Huan walking step by step towards them. The seven punks exchanged nces and nodded to each other, then suddenly, with extreme malice, they drew their knives.
Unfortunately...
"Bang!"
The knife in Ye Huan''s hand sliced through iron like mud, breaking all seven knives in a single stroke, and...
Slit the throats of the seven men!
Blood spurted like a fountain, sttering the ceiling and floor of the room!
"Ah!!!" Suddenly, Tang Yao let out an incredibly sharp scream of terror from the side.
One punk was clever.
He had been hiding in the dim corner of the room, waiting for a chance to ambush Ye Huan, but seeing Ye Huan''s formidable skills, how could he dare to attack?
He knew he was doomed but was determined to take someone down with him before he died!
So, with a vicious expression and a knife gleaming with cold light in his hand, he thrust it straight towards Tang Yao.
Seeing this, Ye Huan''s eyes narrowed into slits, and while throwing his knife, he propelled himself forward with a sudden burst!
"Bang!"
"Bang."
A crisp sound and a muffled sound rang out simultaneously.
The punk''s ribs shattered on the spot, and with a groan, he spewed arge mouthful of blood before copsing against the wall, dead without even closing his eyes.
Ye Huan''s punch shattered all his internal organs.
The source of the crisp sound was Ye Huan''s thrown knife, which knocked the punk''s knife out of his hand and then lodged deeply in the wall with a "ding."
However...
The knife that the punk dropped still left a bloodstain across Tang Yao''s face when it fell.
"Are you okay?" Ye Huan bent down and patted Tang Yao on the shoulder.
Tang Yao looked dazed and shook her head.
The first time they met, Ye Huan single-handedly took down all the armed carjackers on the bus.
This time, Ye Huan again single-handedly took down all the knife-wielding punks.
Who really is he, and how is he so good at "fighting"!
She was puzzled.
At that moment, the room door opened.
Xie Guangkun pushed the door open and shouted, "How''s it going, is it done, is that guy dead..."
Hearing this, he froze.
Oh my god!
What''s going on!
Where are my underlings, all dead?
And Ye Huan?
Xie Guangkun, horrified, shifted his gaze to the corner of the room.
Seeing that Ye Huan and Tang Yao were unharmed, how could he not understand that Ye Huan had dealt with all those punks!?
At the same time, he was filled with remorse.
Because... the knife embedded in the wall, with a flick of Ye Huan''s hand, had pierced his forehead.
"Thud."
He copsed to the ground.
Xie Guangkun went below to report to King Yama. Seven seconds ago, when he heard nothing from the room, he hadughed as he went in, ready to see what a sorry sight Ye Huan was.
Seven secondster, Ye Huan was alive, but he had gone to the Yellow Springs!
He died with his eyes open!
Outside the door, seeing his son copse to the ground, Xie Yongqiang hurriedly rushed in, throwing himself beside Xie Guangkun to check on him.
Oh my god!
Dead?
He looked around, stunned by the bloodbath before him; over ten of his subordinates were dead!?
And Ye Huan!?
He looked up and saw Ye Huan stepping on Xie Guangkun''s forehead, pulling out the knife, and walking towards him. Xie Yongqiang was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, his lips trembling incessantly: "Don''t... don''t make a move, if you... if you dare to kill me, my... my people won''t let..."
Before he could finish saying "go of you," Ye Huan''s knife sliced across his throat.
shed and dropped.
Tossing away the knife, Ye Huan retrieved the bank card from Xie Yongqiang''s suit jacket and put it back in his pocket.
As the saying goes, debts must be repaid; it''s only right.
The Tang Family borrowed a high-interest loan and logically should repay it fully, and Brother Huan would help pay it back.
But s, if someone courts death, they can only me themselves for what happens...
Putting the bank card back into his pocket, Ye Huan kicked out.
Xie Yongqiang clutched his shed throat, copsing to the ground with a "thud," following his son on the path to report to King Yama at the gates of the underworld...
Even in death, he was full of regret.
He only lent out three million in loans, ten times the profit, which would''ve been thirty million back. Why did he have to be greedy, why did he have to covet other bank cards belonging to the Liu Family''s son-inw?
Why did he have to court death!
Chapter 425 - 422: The Past of the Tang Family
"Auntie, you take the child and leave first."
After resolving these troublesome matters, Ye Huan helped untie the ropes binding the hands and feet of Tang Yao''s mother, Hu Pingtong, and Tang Yao''s sister, Tang Xiaoxiao, in the dim corner of the room.
"Big brother, can you let my sister go, please... please don''t bully her." Tang Xiaoxiao grabbed Ye Huan''s hand, looking pitiful.
"Yes, sir, please... please don''t hurt my daughter, I''m begging you, I''m on my knees."
Hu Pingtong said this while trembling almost uncontrobly.
Recalling what Ye Huan had said earlier about making Tang Yao his mistress, the mother and daughter instinctively thought that Ye Huan wanted them to leave so he could do something to Tang Yao.
The scene of Ye Huan ughtering those thugs like a God of ughter was still vivid in her mind. If he wanted to do something to Tang Yao...
Hu Pingtong knew that even if one hundred of her rushed forward, it would be in vain, so she chose to plead aloud.
Ye Huan''s face darkened like the bottom of a pot. He looked just about twenty, a pure fresh young guy, yet he was called "sir" by Hu Pingtong, who was nearly fifty?
"Auntie, the smell of blood here is too strong. It''s not suitable for children to stay in this room for long. You should take her out first..."
"No, if... if you want to do something to my daughter, then you have to step over my dead body first." Hu Pingtong mustered her courage, firmly holding Ye Huan''s arm, thinking that he wanted them to leave first so he could bully Tang Yao.
Tang Xiaoxiao also grabbed Ye Huan''s arm and shouted "viciously": "Yes, you''d have to step over Xiaoxiao''s body too!"
Ye Huan was at a loss: "Rest assured, I have no interest in little white... I have no interest in Tang Yao."
"Re... really?" Hu Pingtong was a bit incredulous.
"Mom, don''t worry, he won''t do anything to me." Tang Yao spoke up for Ye Huan.
"Well... okay then..."
Hu Pingtong and Tang Xiaoxiao released their grip on Ye Huan''s arm with doubt.
After that, Hu Pingtong held Tang Xiaoxiao and walked towards the door.
Tang Xiaoxiao didn''t dare to look at the extremely bloody scene in the room, keeping her eyes tightly shut, and Hu Pingtong was also filled with trepidation.
After the two left the room, Ye Huan approached Tang Yao, bent down, and wiped the blood streak on Tang Yao''s face.
"Fortunately, the knife didn''t cut your flesh, only left a blood streak, so you don''t need a tetanus shot." Ye Huan breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Little bunny, you might have a scar on your face, I''ll help you treat itter."
Tang Yao: "..."
Originally, she was embarrassed because her face was touched.
But upon hearing the word "blood streak," she became very disappointed, knowing that the streak would leave a hideous scar after it faded.
Women love beauty, and Tang Yao was no exception. With a scar on her face, she would definitely be pointed at and would have a hard time finding a husband in the future.
Upon hearing Ye Huan''sst words, her expression brightened, "Really? You can help me remove the scar?"
Ye Huan smiled, "Of course, or should I help you with it now? It might just take some time."
"Now?"
Tang Yao shook her head rapidly; the air here was filled with the smell of blood, and staying any longer would make her vomit.
With Ye Huan''s help, she stood up with difficulty and said through gritted teeth, "Forget it for now, I need to go catch my father!"
...
Leading the three out of Haihui District, Ye Huan contacted Ma Zhiqiang, the property manager at Peni Lakefront, asking him to rent a temporary apartment and arrange for someone to take Hu Pingtong and Tang Xiaoxiao there.
Ye Huan followed Tang Yao to the "ce where the betting happens."
In the taxi, Tang Yao recounted the whole story.
Thirty years ago, and even ten years ago, her family''s financial condition was excellent. Her father, Tang Dongqiang, had capitalized on Huaxia''s economic opening to establish the first garment factory in Celestial Sea City, earning his first fortune and buying their family house in the then prime real estateHaihui District.
In those days, people could only eat chicken, duck, and fish during the New Year, but for the Tang Family, it was avable every meal.
But the prosperity didn''tst long. Ten years ago, the garment factory was taken over by another major shareholder, Tang Dongqiang''s "good brother," who also transferred the factory''s debts to him.
The bank pressured them to repay the debts relentlessly. With no other choice, Tang Dongqiang used all the family''s savings to pay off the debt.
From then on, the Tang Family fell from grace, and their meals changed from chicken, duck, and fish to simple cabbage soup. His wife, Hu Pingtong, was understanding,forting him by saying everyone faces setbacks in life, and she believed Tang Dongqiang could rise again, willing to wait for him.
Despite herforting words, reality was harshly indifferent.
Tang Dongqiang tried to recover, borrowing money to attempt aeback, but repeated failures left him utterly despondent and deeply in debt once again.
At this moment, he unintentionally wandered into an underground fighting ring and began his career of betting on fights.
The oue was predictable. Like countless other gamblers, he lost everything and couldn''t pay his debts.
But this time, he didn''t pull himself together; instead, he willingly sank into decay, reaching a point where no one could save him.
When he ran out of money, he borrowed from rtives and friends.
He lost it all again and couldn''t repay it. When they refused to lend him more, he turned to local gangs for high-interest loans!
Under Xie Yongqiang, there were over a dozen desperados. In the Haihui District, they formed a decent-sized gang with substantial financial power, specializing in usury.
The first time, Tang Dongqiang shamelessly borrowed half a million.
He gambled and lost it all again!
He went to borrow a second time, and it was the same story!
The third time...
The fourth time...
Countless timeseach loss total andplete!
During this period, Tang Yao and Hu Pingtong, both now adults, used various methods to persuade him to stop!
But all Tang Dongqiang would say was, "I can definitely make it back to the top, just like those experts in the ring, earning millions or even more in one fight. Sure, I''ve lost money now, but I''ve gained a lot of experience. I''ll soon be back on top and rake in big money!"
The dream was rich, but reality was harsh.
Tang Dongqiang gambled on fights for many years without ever winningnot even a penny!
In the end, even Xie Yongqiang couldn''t tolerate his dys any longer and forced him to repay the money.
How could Tang Dongqiang repay it? Furious, Xie Yongqiang directly kidnapped Tang Dongqiang''s wife and their young daughter, Tang Xiaoxiao, and threatened the only capable member of the Tang Family, Tang Yao.
He said, "If you can''t pay back the money, I''ll cut off their hands and feet, one a day, until they''re human sticks."
Tang Yao was terrified and asked how much needed to be repaid.
As the secretary to the president of Tianyun International, her sry was higher than most, a bit over 30,000 a month, and she had saved some money over the years.
But hearing numbers in the millions, she was almost fainted with fear and asked if she could have more time.
Xie Yongqiang was in no mood for negotiations, cruelly warning that if the money wasn''t transferred by the deadline, he would start cutting off a Tang Family member''s limb a day.
Later, he learned that Liu Tianyun, the president of Tianyun International, was away and had handed over authority to Tang Yao. He then told Tang Yao that if she could arrange for him and his son to be hired by Tianyun International to earn a sry and pay off the debt, they might temporarily back off.
Tang Yao, with no other option and not wanting her family to suffer under Xie Yongqiang''s wrath, resorted to abusing her power, betraying Liu Tianyun by arranging high-paying positions in the human resources department for the two, as head and manager, respectively.
She knew the two had extremely bad reputations and would probably be fired by Liu Tianyun soon, so she used their time in employment to scramble for money.
But just three dayster, the subsequent incidents urred.
"Ye Huan, don''t worry. I''ll go apologize to the presidentter. Abusing my power was a huge mistake, and I''ll ept any punishment," Tang Yao said, clenching her fists, filled with guilt.
Ye Huan remained silent.
Anything rted to Liu Tianyun, Brother Huan wanted no part of. He needed to maintain his distance for an easy divorce!
Some ten minutester, the taxi stopped in front of a bar on the outskirts of the Celestial Sea.
After scanning the QR code with WeChat, Ye Huan stepped out of the car. When paying the fare, he was surprised to see the real name in brackets after the driver''s WeChat handle.
It read "Guan Caiban."
"Mr. Guan, your name sounds quite lucky," Ye Huan joked.
"Haha, don''t make fun of me, young man. My parents just weren''t very educated," the taxi driver, Guan Caiban, said, his eyes shing with a trace of excitement. He didn''t even check if Ye Huan had paid, eagerly drove away.
Ye Huan wasn''t the type to take advantage. After paying the fare, he walked toward the bar with Tang Yao.
What they didn''t know was.
As the taxi drove away, Guan Caiban''s hands trembled, and with excitement, he retrieved an old Nokilia phone, powered it on, rummaged through the contacts, and dialed a number saved under "Boss."
With a fawning expression.
"Hello, Boss?"
"It''s Old Guan. I spotted Tang Dongqiang''s daughter!"
"Yes, yes, the same Tang Dongqiang who used to run a factory with us!"
Chapter 426 - 423: Underground Boxing Ring
Shane Bar, thergest entertainment venue in the northern suburbs of Celestial Sea, is also one of the few bars that operate around the clock.
However, the bar''s regrs know well that Shane Bar''s 24-hour operation is because...
Although it''s a bar on the surface, it secretly houses an underground fighting ring that offers gambling services!
Tang Yao had a brief conversation with the doorman at the bar entrance, and then the doorman led Tang Yao and Ye Huan to a wall.
After the doorman verified his fingerprint on the fingerprint lock on the wall, there was a "boom" sound, and the heavy door of the secret room opened, revealing a staircase leading underground.
As the staircase appeared, deafening metal rock music and shouts echoed from within.
The area of the underground fighting ring is evenrger than the bar. In the center is a fifty-square-meter boxing ring, where two muscr men were exchanging punches in the ear-shattering metal rock music.
Beneath the ring, a crowd of gamblers whistled, shouted, andughed loudly.
After entering the fighting ring, Tang Yao scanned the crowd, looking for her father, Tang Dongqiang.
Soon, her gaze froze on a thin, dirt-covered middle-aged man cheering with raised arms, and she was immediately filled with anger.
"Are you still human? At a time like this, you''re still here gambling on fights!?" Tang Yao grabbed the man''s arm and pulled him aside, looking heartbroken and furious.
The middle-aged man was Tang Yao''s fatherTang Dongqiang.
He was in high spirits, but after being interrupted, he couldn''t help feeling a bit annoyed. However, when he saw who it was, he was momentarily stunned.
"Yao Yao, what are you doing here? And who is he?" Tang Dongqiang nced at Ye Huan, a bit confused.
"Don''t ask about him first!"
"I''m asking you, mom and Xiaoxiao are in Xie Yongqiang''s hands, and you still have the mood to gamble on fights. Aren''t you afraid of what he might do to them!?"
"Also, you borrowed a high-interest loan from Xie Yongqiang again, borrowing a hundred thousand to repay five hundred thousand!?"
Tang Yao became more and more furious, tightening her grip on Tang Dongqiang, causing him pain.
Tang Dongqiang inhaled sharply, then retracted his hand, and spoke seriously,
"Yao Yao, I hope you can understand me. I asked him for this one hundred thousand, isn''t it to turn things around, to save your mom and Xiaoxiao?"
"As long as I win one big bet, I can pay off all the debts, and Xie Yongqiang will let our family go!"
"By then, not only will we have paid the debts, but we can also live in a luxury house, drive a luxury car, and turn our lives around instantly!"
Tang Yao was so angry sheughed, putting her hands on her hips, "And have you won?"
To her surprise, Tang Dongqiang nodded earnestly, "I have won."
Tang Yao was momentarily speechless, her anger having nowhere to go; she really didn''t expect Tang Dongqiang to win.
"Not a lot, just five hundred thousand." Tang Dongqiang added, looking smug, "Yao Yao, as I said before, losing money was just umting experience. Now Dad can proudly tell you, Dad is ''max level'', and I won''t lose again! This five hundred thousand is just the beginning. After betting another dozen rounds, I can make at least ten million today, haha!"
The words had just fallen.
"Bang!"
The fists collided on the ring, deciding victory and defeat!
The muscr man with the red headband won this time, raising his arms in the air with a victor''s smile on his face.
The gamblers below the stage cheered continuously and were full of excitement, clearly having gained a lot.
"Haha!"
Tang Dongqiang also jumped up happily.
After calming down, he patted Tang Yao''s shoulder, his expression smug, as he said with a smile, "Yao Yao, you see how good dad''s skills in fight betting are, right? To be honest, after this fight, dad won another fifty thousand!"
Tang Yao''s face darkened like the bottom of a pot, her anger having nowhere to go.
She knew that no matter what she said, a money-winning Tang Dongqiang wouldn''t listen.
"Waiter,e over."
"Uh put all this six hundred fifty thousand on that big brother on the stage for the next round!"
Tang Dongqiang beckoned a waiter over, intending to ce all the chips he held into the waiter''s tray.
Ye Huan reached out to stop him, "Uncle Tang, don''t bet this round."
"How can I not bet!"
"Betting on that big brother equals winning money, do you understand that, kid!"
"Quick, quick, go aside."
Tang Dongqiang impatiently waved his hand, pushing Ye Huan aside.
This time, Tang Yao stopped him with a cold face.
"Listen to him, don''t bet this round!" Tang Yao said.
"Why not?"
"No reason, if you still care about me as your daughter, don''t bet this round!" Tang Yao stared with angry eyes, knowing that Ye Huan was not speaking without reason.
When his daughter threatened him like this, Tang Dongqiang had no choice but to grit his teeth, awkwardly apologize to the waitress, send her away, and refrain from betting on the next match.
"Is he your boyfriend?" Tang Dongqiang pointed at Ye Huan.
"No, but if you listen to him, you won''t go wrong!"
Tang Yao snorted coldly, her face slightly flushed. She simply felt that Ye Huan was much more reliable than Tang Dongqiang.
Tang Dongqiang was infuriated. He had always heard others say that daughters were unpredictable. Now he truly experienced it himself!
His daughter was actually stopping her father from betting to "make money" because of an unknown, inexperienced wild boy!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Tang Dongqiang gave Ye Huan an extremely dissatisfied re.
Ye Huan didn''t care and calmly watched the ring.
Having traversed the Dark World for seven years, he had seen all the dark sides of this world. The "little tricks" yed in this underground arena were child''s y to him, and couldn''t hide from his eyes at all.
At this moment, another burly man stepped into the ring to face off against a man with a red bandana.
The gamblers saw him and immediately felt a sense of dread; he was a fierce one, even bigger than the red-bandana fighter!
The burly man smirked and made a provocative gesture.
The red-bandana fighter erupted in response.
In less than a minute, the burly man who initiated the provocation was kicked off the stage by the red-bandana fighter.
Red-bandana fighter, wins!
"Great!!!"
"Haha, this guy is awesome, I''ve won eight hundred thousand, haha!"
"He''s truly a lucky star. I''ve never won before, lost tens of millions, and this dude has directly paid me back one percent, haha!"
The gamblers were full of joy, pping and cheering for the red-bandana fighter repeatedly.
"Sigh"
On the side, Tang Dongqiang sighed heavily, furious as he scolded Tang Yao: "Look at what you''ve done, if I''d bet, I could have made tens of thousands this time!"
"He has his reasons for not letting you bet, just trust him!" Tang Yao retorted directly.
"You..."
Tang Dongqiang''s anger surged, nearly exploding, and he truly wanted to give Tang Yao a p.
Meanwhile, a small, thin man with an eagle nose and hawk-like eyes walked up to the ring.
He was the one who would face off against the red-bandana fighter in the next match.
At a nce, the 1.6-meter-tall eagle-nosed man looked like a child in front of the roughly 2-meter-tall red-bandana fighter.
Purely from the size, it''s no exaggeration to say that if the red-bandana fighternded a punch, the eagle-nosed man might die on the spot!
A sure loss!
The gamblers saw this and were all smiles, handing their chips to the waitress without hesitation, betting everything on the red-bandana fighter.
Tang Dongqiang gave Ye Huan an extremely dissatisfied re, then suppressed his anger, called over the waitress, and said, "Here''s six hundred and fifty thousand, put it all on Red Bandana Brother..."
"No, put the whole six hundred and fifty thousand on that other guy." Ye Huan firmly interrupted Tang Dongqiang.
Tang Dongqiang widened his eyes and said, "Kid, are you delirious?"
"I''m not, just listen to me." Ye Huan said unhurriedly.
"Get lost!"
Tang Dongqiang red at Ye Huan, then handed all his chips to the waitress and said exuberantly, "Bet it all on Red Bandana Brother!"
"Okay, okay!"
The waitress''s mouth subtly turned up. At first, when she heard Ye Huan say to bet on the eagle-nosed man, her expression slightly changed, but now it returned to normal.
"Uncle Tang, you''re throwing money away." Ye Huan remarked helplessly.
Tang Dongqiang smirked sarcastically andughed coldly:
"Kid, if you don''t understand, don''t babble. Do you even know the strength of the red-bandana fighter in the ring?"
"He''s been undefeated, winning every match over the past few dozen days!"
"His strength is beyond your imagination! Once, his mere presence terrified another fighter into submission!"
"The sixty-five thousand I won was all from betting on him!"
"This eagle-nosed guy seems even thinner than me. A gust of wind could blow him away, much less withstand a punch from the red-bandana fighter!"
Ye Huan kept hisposure but said something surprising.
"Precisely for that reason, he shouldn''t be bet on."
Chapter 427 - 424: God of Gamblers!
Tang Dongqiang: "..."
He was so angry that heughed and didn''t say anything.
Because the man with the red scarf is impressive, you can''t bet on him?
What kind of logic is this!?
Idiot!
"Little Bunny, help me exchange for five hundred thousand in chips, all on the Hooked Nose Guy." Ye Huan pulled out a bank card and handed it to Tang Yao.
Tang Yao nodded obediently and went to do it.
Who knew Tang Dongqiang''s eyes would widen, grabbing Ye Huan''s shoulders with both hands, and ask incredulously: "You you''re not mistaken, are you? Betting all five hundred thousand on the Hooked Nose Guy!?"
"What''s the problem?" Ye Huan said calmly.
"You''re just throwing that five hundred thousand into the water, you might as well give it to me, let me create more value for you!"
"Betting on the Hooked Nose Guy is like throwing money into the water!"
Tang Dongqiang shook Ye Huan''s shoulders, looking pained and heartbroken.
At this moment, Tang Yao came back, handed the bank card back to Ye Huan. The five hundred thousand chips were already bet on the Hooked Nose Guy.
Tang Dongqiang, seeing no way to recover the situation, his face turnedpletely sullen.
He yanked Tang Yao''s arm, pulling her to the side!
"In the future, you''re not allowed to associate with this idiot, you hear me!"
"If he doesn''t know how to bet on boxing, fine, but he won''t let someone who does help him, this kid is simply too dumb, my daughter, Tang Dongqiang''s, absolutely cannot associate with someone this stupid!"
"Hiss" Tang Yao gasped in pain, red at him after breaking free, "What are you getting all worked up about again!"
"What do you mean getting worked up, your old man is advising you, advising you to turn back from the wrong path, this kid''s intelligence is not normal!"
Tang Yaopletely ignored Tang Dongqiang''s words and returned to Ye Huan''s side.
You can''t keep a grown daughter at home!
She''s not even listening to her dad anymore!
Tang Dongqiang felt his lungs about to explode with rage, his entire body about to blow up!
Themotion here was quite loud, attracting the attention of many gamblers. Seeing Ye Huan bet five hundred thousand on the Hooked Nose Guy, their reactions were the same as Tang Dongqiang''s, all a bit dumbfounded.
Are you kidding?
Who is the Red Scarf Fighter?
It''s not an exaggeration to say he''s the star fighter of this underground boxing arena, his iron fists have no rival worldwide!
Betting five hundred thousand on that Hooked Nose Guy is just like throwing money into the water, gone for nothing!
Keep in mind, the Red Scarf Fighter, not just today, since he set foot in the underground boxing arena, hasn''t lost a single fight!
His strength is formidable, in several past fights, he would explode with such aura that it scared his opponents into kneeling for mercy.
A pair of iron fists, with unparalleled power!
Against this feeble Hooked Nose Guy, could he possibly lose?
Everyone believes he''s guaranteed to win!
And this young man just has to do something different?
Even saying that because the Red Scarf Fighter is so badass, we shouldn''t bet on him?
This kid''s brain must have been kicked by a donkey...
No, staying here might infect them.
The gamblers fled as if avoiding the gue, running quickly away.
For a moment, with Ye Huan as the center, there wasn''t a soul within a ten-meter radius.
Tang Dongqiang was about to explode with anger.
Originally shunned by fellow gamblers due to being in rags over the long term, he could still get some betting insights if he passed around enough cigarettes and alcohol!
But after this incident, just because he stood closer to this kid, he fears he''ll bepletely ostracized from their gambling circle, no amount of cigarettes and alcohol would gain him any further betting insights!
Bear in mind, these insights were gained from gamblers losing hundreds of millions in total, incredibly precious!
Because of this kid, all gone!
Looking at Ye Huan, Tang Dongqiang''s gaze was filled with deep resentment.
At the same time, he couldn''t understand what kind of spell this kid had cast on Tang Yao to make her so enamored with him?
Also, after all this, not a boyfriend!?
Tang Dongqiang decided that no matter what, he absolutely couldn''t let his daughter associate with this jinx!
Everyone else, when they meet the parents for the first time, brings gifts and red envelopes!
This kid? First time meeting the parents, he throws fifty thousand, which was "prepared" for the parents, into the water!
Tang Dongqiang was so angry he was about to suffocate.
"Hush"
A whistle sounded, signaling the start of the fight.
Tang Dongqiang suppressed his fury, turning his gaze to the ring.
He forced himself to calm down.
Can''t let this kid disturb his state of mind and affect future bets!
On the ring, the exchange of punches and kicks was extremely fierce and extremely dazzling, making people feel dizzy.
The gamblers cheered, rooting for the Red Scarf Fighter with some surprise.
This Hooked Nose Guy does have some skills, managing so many moves under the Red Scarf Fighter''s assault.
But, he was only withstanding, soon he would lose!
A minuteter, the gamblers began to sweat.
Because the Hooked Nose Guy showed no signs of losing!
In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged a hundred moves, yet the Red Scarf Fighter hadn''t suppressed the Hooked Nose Guy.
Not only hadn''t he suppressed him, but signs of being suppressed instead!
Another minuteter.
"Bang."
The Hooked Nose Guy dodged a chop, and then kicked out, directly pushing the Red Scarf Fighter into the corner of the ring.
This move left all the gamblers dumbfounded!
"Go, kill him!"
"What are you doing, can''t even beat this skinny guy!"
"I bet my whole stake on you, get up there and kill him!"
The gamblers shouted anxiously.
But when the Red Scarf Fighter turned his head, a cold look instantly silenced them.
The cheers stopped
The apuse ceased
The whistles died down
The gamblers dared not shout anymore, but hoped the Red Scarf Fighter could reverse the situation!
But, things didn''t go as they wished!
The Red Scarf Fighter, pushed into a corner, had no ce to retreat.
"Bang!"
Chapter 428 - 424: God of Gambling!_2
The hook-nosed man casually throws a punch!
A sound of fist crashing!
And then...
"Ah!!!"
"Puh!!!"
With a sharp scream, the Red Scarf fighter spit out a mouthful of hot blood, sttering the boxing ring, and was knocked back over ten meters!
In the end, the burly body of the Red Scarf fighter smashed into the wall and fainted on the ground.
"..."
If you ignore the metal rock music...
The entire underground boxing arena was utterly silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop...
The gamblers'' eyes were wide open, their mouths agape like bloodthirsty maws, faces full of shock and disbelief!
What just happened!!!
Lost?
The Red Scarf fighter, who won dozens of matches in a row, actually lost!?
Lost to a skinny guy who looked like he could be blown over with a puff of wind!?
Most gamblers firmly believed in the Red Scarf fighter, betting everything they owned on him.
With this loss, not only did they give back all their previous winnings, but they also lost their entire livelihood!
"Why didn''t you stop me, why didn''t you forcefully stop me!!!" Tang Dongqiang grabbed Ye Huan by the cor, filled with grief and indignation.
If Ye Huan had forcefully stopped him, he wouldn''t have lost this money!
If Ye Huan had forcefully stopped him, the money wouldn''t have been wasted!
With the money wasted, there''s no chance for aeback, and he can''t pay back the promised five million to Xie Yongqiang!
Unable to pay it back...
Wife Hu Pingtong...
Daughter Tang Xiaoxiao...
And himself...
Will all be doomed!
The more Tang Dongqiang thought about it, the angrier he got, his hatred toward Ye Huan reached its peak. This kid clearly saw something but just didn''t stop him, just watched him lose!
In a fit of rage, he raised his massive palm.
Tang Yao coldly stepped in front of Ye Huan, clearly indicating: go through me first before touching him!
"Move aside!"
"This kid caused us to lose everything, caused our family to be destroyed!"
"If I don''t beat him to death, I can''t relieve this hatred in my heart!"
Tang Dongqiang cursed angrily, his palm still held high in the air.
Tang Yao stood her ground with a cold face, not moving an inch.
The deep hatred in her eyes stabbed into Tang Dongqiang''s chest like a knife, causing him pain.
For all these years, if it weren''t for this daughter propping up the family, the Tang Family would have been finished long ago.
In the end, Tang Dongqiang withdrew his trembling palm and fell back to the ground with a defeated look.
The boxing arena returned to a state of silence.
"Sir, here are the chips you won, five million." The waiter brought over a tray of chips and handed it to Ye Huan.
Ye Huan took it casually, his gaze calm and emotionless.
The gamblers looked on with envy, jealousy, and hatred, filled with remorse.
This kid bet fifty thousand and got five million at odds of 1.10!
He made a fortune!
Throw money into the water? If throwing fifty thousand into the water could yield five million, they would rush to do it!
His unique strategy set him apart because he was more cunning than anyone else!
Hit on the head by a donkey? Everyone present except for this young man was hit; only he was the wise one!
The gamblers regretted it to their very cores. If they had followed Ye Huan''s bet, they wouldn''t have lost so miserably and would have made a huge profit!
"Do you want it?" Ye Huan leaned down, moving the tray of chips in front of Tang Dongqiang.
Tang Dongqiang looked up at Ye Huan, nodding eagerly after a moment of being stunned, growing ecstatic. If he had these chips, he could use his "exquisite gambling skills" to make aeback!
"Young... young man, can... can you lend me all these chips? I''ll pay you back at 1.10, giving you fifty million, okay!" Tang Zhiqiang replied excitedly.
His problem with borrowing high-interest loans was incorrigible.
Tang Yao, heartbroken, reached out, wanting to support Ye Huan but stopped when Ye Huan subtly shook his head.
"I won''t lend you these chips."
These words from Ye Huan left Tang Dongqiang looking ashen.
But his next words made Tang Dongqiang jump up in excitement.
"I''ll give you all these chips." Ye Huan stood, a smile on his lips, "But I have to ask you first, why did youe to gamble here?"
"I..." Tang Dongqiang gritted his teeth, "I want to make aeback."
"What you mean is, you want to pay off all your debts and then raise some start-up capital for a business, right?"
"Right!" Tang Dongqiang nodded, "As long as you give me these chips, with my gambling experience, I can surely gamble and win a lot of money..."
"No, if you keep gambling, you''ll just lose everything down to your underwear."
"You call that gambling experience? It''s more like losing experience."
Ye Huan deliberately mocked him, making Tang Dongqiang blush with embarrassment.
Indeed, he had never won, only had experiences of losing!
"Do you know why I said earlier that because it was ''impossible'' for the Red Scarf Fighter to lose, you couldn''t bet on him?" Ye Huan asked calmly.
"I don''t know."
Tang Dongqiang shook his head in regret. If he had listened to Ye Huan, putting sixty-five thousand on the hook-nosed man, he would now have earned six hundred and fifty thousand.
"Having been undefeated in the arena for so long, besides there being no other formidable fighters, there''s only one possibility."
"And that''s that the arena is deliberately hyping up the power of the Red Scarf Fighter! Including the so-called explosive power and forcing the opponent to kneel and beg for mercy, it''s all about building his strong persona, a persona so strong that it''s unbelievable!"
"The news of his dozens of consecutive wins will inevitably spread among gamblers, and more people will bet on him. Initially, gamblers might have been very cautious, perhaps betting very little, but..."
"As the Red Scarf Fighter defeated opponents again and again, showcasing extreme strength, you gamblers who bet on him win match after match, and in the ecstasy of winning chips, you let down your guard and bet more on him."
Chapter 429 - 424: God of Gambling!_3
"Naturally, the more you win, the more chips you rake in. Each time, the intense thrill of winning chips starts bombarding your brains, making you more and more convinced he can''t lose, making you utterly certain betting on him won''t ever result in a loss!"
"When the thrill of umting chips and your unwavering faith in the Red Scarf fighter reaches its peak, you willpletely lose your basic ability to judge. At this moment, the arena will strike, manipting and reaping all the assets of the gamblers."
"When Tang Yao and I entered the arena, I told you not to bet in the first match because I wanted to assess the situation, to see to what extent the arena''s quick-profit thrill had captivated you all, to prevent the next match being when the arena uses thrill to reap you, leading to losses."
"Watching the fighter with a broad back easily defeated, hearing your cheers and shouts of surprise, I guessed that the arena''s n was about to reach fruition, the arena had made youpletely believe, believe that betting on the Red Scarf fighter couldn''t possibly lose, could definitely win more and more money!"
"Later, when the eagle-nosed man stepped into the ring, it confirmed my suspicions. The arena sent out someone deliberately creating a visual impact, crafting a sharp contrast. After all, how could the weak and frail dwarfpare to the powerful, undefeated boxing king in your minds?"
"But the oue was already determined. Under the intense contrast and impact, most gamblers would stake their majority or even all their chips on the Red Scarf fighter, thus creating thergest scale of betting."
"The arena will surely at this moment, make you spit back all the money you''ve won, and sweep away all your other assets!"
Ye Huan deliberately lowered his voice so that only Tang Dongqiang and Tang Yao could hear.
His analysis left Tang Yao and Tang Dongqiang stunned on the spot!
Tang Yao snapped back, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Ye Huan. This man wasn''t just more reliable than Tang Dongqiang; he was a thousand times better!
Having only been in the arena for such a short time, he had seen through the arena''s tactics clearly!
Tang Dongqiang, however, felt so ashamed he''d have liked to dig a hole and crawl into it. He only then realized that if he continued to rely on his "precise gambling skills," the oue would undoubtedly be the same, losing everything.
Previously, he was lost in the recurring excitement of winning, turning a deaf ear to any advice, believing a hundred percent in the Red Scarf fighter''s victory, which led to a total loss!
Doesn''t understand the trade? This guy is a gambling god!
The scheme set by the arena was effortlessly seen through by him!
"I''ll give you these chips, but you must bet under my instructions, and all winnings will belong to you." Ye Huan maintained a calm demeanor as he handed over a tray full of chips.
Tang Dongqiang nodded frantically like pounding garlic, now believing whatever Ye Huan said, for he believed in the gambling god!
A muscr man entered the ring to face off with the eagle-nosed man.
"Eagle-eyed guy, bet it all."
Ye Huan directed, and Tang Dongqiangplied, cing all the chips on the eagle-nosed man.
In this round, five million turned into six million one hundred thousand,ting a profit of one hundred and ten thousand.
One fight after anothermenced in session.
Tang Dongqiang, following Ye Huan''s guidance, profited handsomely in every bout, beaming with joy.
With each full tray of chips presented by the servers, their expressions grew increasingly grim.
After eight bouts, the chips in Tang Dongqiang''s hands had skyrocketed from five million to twenty-four million!
The gamblers who had mocked and avoided Ye Huan earlier now all wanted to be near him, eager to hear whom he would have Tang Dongqiang back and to follow suit.
Only, unfortunately...
Ye Huan and the other two evaded them like the gue, and with voices only audible to themselves, directed Tang Dongqiang.
The gamblers felt like crying but had no tears. If they hadn''t offended this gambling god earlier, how could such a thing have happened!
If they could get this god of gambling''s guidance, they would profit hugely!
Why did they have to avoid this gambling god earlier like avoiding a gue!
...
"Baka!"
"This brat must be an old hand; he saw through our routine!"
"This time, after he ces his bets, find out which side he bet on, and immediately instruct the other side to concede!"
"We must make him spit out all the money he''s holding!"
In a luxurious private box at Sanei Bar, a man d in samurai attire smashed the ss in his hand, hurling curses.
The server nodded, responded with a "Hai," and withdrew.
The man thought he was on the fifth floor, while Ye Huan was on the second.
Too bad, Ye Huan was up in the exosphere!
Three minutester.
The server returned, bbergasted and running.
"Boss, he... he stopped betting!"
Chapter 430 - 425: Kameda Zhibin
"Not betting anymore?" Kameda''s mouth twitched.
"Yes, not only is he not betting, but he''s also... also..." The waiter''s face was awkward as he added, "He wants to cash out and leave."
Kameda nearly fainted from anger.
Taking a deep breath, he snarled, "Refuse the withdrawal; let him go after he''s paid back the principal. If he resists, just make him disappear!"
"Yes!"
The waiter exited again.
...
"Not enough cash? Are you kidding? Our chips were exchanged for real money, and now you won''t let us cash it back?"
Tang Dongqiang nted his hands on the service counter, ring at the waiter.
"If we say there''s none, there''s none!"
"Twenty-four million, do you think we can just pull that out, huh?"
"If you''re smart, you''d leave now. There''s six hundred thousand in the card, just enough for the two of you as principal."
The waiter, looking impatient, tossed a bank card onto the counter.
"How is this fair!" Tang Dongqiang felt indignant, arguing, "This is our winnings. How can you say no and mean it?"
"Yeah, what you''re doing is really unfair!"
The gamblers wore grim expressions, starting to chime in.
Though they had all lost heavily, wagering even their underwear, they still believed that one day, with luck or help from some benefactor, they could win big like Tang Dongqiang and turn their fortunes around.
But now they had the means to turn it around, and the gambling den wouldn''t pay up? What a disgrace.
As the saying goes, history repeats itself. This cannot be overlooked. If by chance they did manage toe back, the gambling den refusing to pay would ruin everything.
"How can you be so unscrupulous? If the gamblers lose money, you happily take it; but when they win, you don''t pay?"
"Indeed, it''s truly disgraceful. If you can''t run a gambling den, then don''t. Aren''t you afraid no one wille to gamble in the future?"
"It''s not just unscrupulous. Earlier, the Red Scarf boxer lost to that hooked-nose man, and there was some shady business. You rigged it!"
Someone shouted, instantly stirring up the mood.
The gamblers exchanged nces, each starting to feel a bit pleased.
If they could use the momentum to reim their lost chips... that would be a thrill!
"Give us back our money! You rigged it, give us our money back!"
"You heartless gambling den, return the money!"
"Give all the money back!!!"
The gamblers surged forward, swarming the service counter, shouting and swearing, spittle flying onto the waiter''s face.
The waiter remained unfazed, wiping his face and pressing the red button on the counter.
"Boom!"
In a deafening explosion, a hundred gun-toting thugs, wearing sunsses and dressed in ck, stormed into the gambling arena, their weapons pointing straight at the gamblers'' heads, driving them into pale-faced terror as they huddled into a corner.
Only Ye Huan remained calm.
Tang Yao couldn''t help but feel a bit panicked, instinctively grabbing Ye Huan''s hand, her palm covered in fragrant sweat.
As Ye Huan squeezed her hand, a sense of security washed over her, the panic fading away, reced by a hint of shyness.
"What''s up with you all, can''t afford to lose, huh!?"
"You''re the ones who wanted to gamble, but when you lose, you me our den and cause trouble here? You think you can mess with our den?"
"Go ahead, cause another scene, let''s see!"
"Click."
The leader of the gun-wielding thugs, Shike Lang, chambered a bullet, aiming the gun at the cornered gamblers, his face menacing, arrogance reaching a peak.
The gamblers shivered, both frightened and furious.
Because this thug leader was the Red Scarf boxer!
This guy looked full of life, nothing like he was injured before!
It was definitely rigged!
"How can your den rig things like this?"
One gambler who had lost everything dared to voice out his anger.
"You son of a bitch!"
Shike Lang spat in disgust, backhanding the gambler to the ground, then pulled the trigger!
"Bang!"
The bullet discharged, directly blowing the brave gambler''s head off.
The gamblers screamed in horror, trembling.
These guns were real, and they really dared to fire them!
"I''m telling you, this is rigged! Not happy?" Shike Lang nced over the gamblers, strutting arrogantly.
No joke, with over a hundred guns pointing, how could they dare to be unhappy? Even if they were, they''d have to swallow it down.
Anyone who dared to voice their frustration had already been shot!
"You unhappy, huh?" Shike Lang raised his handgun, pressing it against a gambler''s forehead.
The gambler wet himself, cried out, "I''m ecstatic!"
"Damn, getting off on being held at gunpoint, what a masochist." Shike Lang sneered, leaving the gambler only able to sob and force a grin, afraid of getting shot.
Fortunately, the next second, Shike Lang moved the gun away.
"How about you? Happy?"
"And you, happy?"
"Happy?"
"Happy?"
"..."
After asking over ten people, all answered "happy," leaving Shike Lang with a mocking smirk.
A bunch of cowards!
Spitting again, he stepped on the body of the shot gambler, staring down the others, scoffing, "I''ll give you a chance to live. Hand over all the money you have, then you can leave!"
The gamblers were furious; this wasn''t rigging, this was outright robbery!
But there was no winning this, facing over a hundred guns, they''d have to pay whether they wanted to or not!
"Don''t waste time."
"Hurry up, give me my twenty-four million, I gotta get home and cook for my wife."
Chapter 431 - 425: Kameda Zhibin_2
The sudden noise left many people dumbfounded.
All eyes shifted toward the back of the crowd to that young man with a cold expression.
Ye Huan kept a stern face, visibly impatient.
"..."
The whole ce was silent; even the deafening metal rock music came to a halt.
The gamblers looked at Ye Huan, then collectively shivered, hastily backing away, fearing they might be caught in the crossfire if Shi Kelong decided to execute the kid.
"Going home to cook for your wife? I''ll send you underground for a report!"
Shi Kelong''s face was dark; he ced the gun barrel directly against Ye Huan''s forehead and shouted fiercely, "Speak! Do you want this 24 million, and the end is reporting underground, or do you quickly get lost?"
"Let me remind you."
"One, get the money out for me within three minutes;"
"Two, I really hate having a gun pointed at me, so watch out."
Ye Huan looked indifferent.
Oh my god!
Isn''t this gambling god crazy? Daring to speak like this with a gun pointed at him? Could it be that he''s won money and is dazed from the thrill?
The gamblers'' eyes were wide open, all running to the other corner.
In an instant, besides Shi Kelong and his thugs, only Ye Huan and his twopanions were left in the corner.
"Kid, do you have the guts to say that again?" Shi Kelong twisted his grim head, his gaze menacing as he pressed the gun harder against Ye Huan''s forehead.
"Ye Huan, let''s... let''s give up on the money, just... just forget it..." Tang Dongqiang and Tang Yao, both pale, tugged at Ye Huan''s sleeve.
Ye Huan raised an eyebrow, "Give up? We won it fair and square, why should we give up?"
"Kid, you''re asking for it!"
Shi Kelong couldn''t stand someone being more brazen than him and pulled the trigger.
But at that moment.
Ye Huan''s right hand shot out suddenly...
"Bang!"
The gunshot rang out.
Yet lying in the pool of blood was Shi Kelong!
He was motionless, a bloody hole from a bullet in his forehead!
The thugs recovered, their faces twisted, and their guns pointed straight at Ye Huan.
But before they pulled the trigger, a shadow shed from behind them, heading straight for Ye Huan.
"Swish!"
"Swish!"
"Swish!"
The speed was so fast it left only afterimages!
Ye Huan even closed his eyes.
The next second...
He raised his pistol, chambered a bullet with a "click," and pointed it upward.
The muzzle was against someone''s forehead.
"Master Xiaochuan!" the thugs eximed.
The hook-nosed man, Xiaochuan Sunng,nded smoothly, holding an extremely sharp, hook-shaped knife.
Yet, the muzzle remained pressed to his forehead.
Ye Huan kept a cold face, pulling the trigger by seven-tenths.
"Give the entire 24 million to this gentleman!"
Xiaochuan Sunng had a calm expression and waved his hand.
The cashier thought he heard wrong and asked tentatively, "Master Xiaochuan, are you... sure about withdrawing money for this kid?"
"Swish!"
The hook-shaped knife left Xiaochuan Sunng''s hand, embedding deeply into the wall just a millimeter from the cashier''s head.
Frightened out of his wits, the cashier immediately started withdrawing the money.
A minuteter, he emerged from the counter, trembling as he handed over a bank card, "Big... big brother, the 24 million... all in here."
Ye Huan nced at Tang Dongqiang, signaling for him to take it.
Tang Dongqiang, still very nervous, fearfully took the bank card and then scurried behind Ye Huan.
With the money collected, Ye Huan still didn''t move the gun''s muzzle from Xiaochuan Sunng''s forehead.
"Let them pass!" Xiaochuan Sunng waved his hand again.
The thugs all stepped aside.
Ye Huan tossed the gun and led Tang Yao and Tang Dongqiang up the stairs leading to the bar.
Throughout the process, no one stopped them!
The thugs wanted to stop them, but with no orders from Xiaochuan Sunng, they reluctantly let it go.
"Fifty thousand each, kill whoever doesn''t pay!" Xiaochuan Sunng left this extremely venomous remark and then left the underground boxing arena.
The gamblers wailed loudly.
They knew the underground arena intended to recover the 24 million "loss" from them!
But most of them had lost everything, not a penny left to pay the ransom!
They regretted it again!
Utterly regretted!
To the point of gut-wrenching regret!
What the hell, this gambling god not only wasn''t executed but withdrew 24 million and left unharmed!?
There''s only one exnation, he''s strong!
Very strong!
So strong that the arena wouldn''t dare stop him!
His power intimidated that "Master Xiaochuan!"
Killed by Shi Kelong?
Shi Kelong himself took a bullet and went underground to report!
If they hadn''t run away from the gambling god earlier, maybe... maybe they could have muddled through and left the arena with him!
The gamblers looked ashen, those who lost everything "thumped" on the ground, waiting for death toe.
The gambling god "gave" them a second chance, once to earn money and once to leave the arena, but they failed to seize either!
Not only did they lose everything, but their lives were also at stake here!
...
Shanai Bar, a luxurious private room.
Though it was called a private room, it was more like arge surveince room.
The walls of the room were covered with electronic screens, disying footage from the visible bar and the hidden underground boxing arena, capturing every corner of the building in 360 degrees.
A man dressed in a samurai outfit, holding a beer, sat on the sofa.
He ced the beer on the coffee table in front of him, then extended a finger, pointing at the top screen, showing the three people at the bar entrance. The young man''s face was dark as he said, "Get me all his information, instantaneously!"
Chapter 432 - 425 Kameda Shibin_3
"Hi!"
The waiter nodded and exited the private room.
In the private room, on the other end of the sofa, Sonichiro Shochikawa frowned and said, "Lord Zhibin, not only is this boy''s gambling technique top-notch, but his own strength is also very formidable, far exceeding mine."
As a Genin from the East, Sonichiro Shochikawa''s strength was extremely formidable, and there were very few people who could make him admit defeat.
"That''s precisely why I''m just investigating him." Kameda Zhibin took a sip of beer, his expression somewhat solemn.
From the surveince footage, he had seen the entire scene of Sonichiro Shochikawa''s lightning-fast exchange with Ye Huan.
Sonichiro Shochikawa''s surprise attack was extremely fast, difficult for the human eye to capture even an afterimage, yet Ye Huan predicted Shochikawa''s position with closed eyes, directly pointing a gun at his forehead.
Ye Huan''s strength indeed far exceeded that of Sonichiro Shochikawa!
As a Chunin from the East, Kameda Zhibin admitted to himself that he couldn''t do better than Ye Huan, and he also realized... he couldn''t see through Ye Huan''s strength, otherwise, he would have taken action himself to kill Ye Huan.
"Lord Zhibin..." Sonichiro Shochikawa spoke again, as if thinking of something, his expression bing extremely grave, "It''s highly possible that the God of ughter is hiding in the Celestial Sea, could this person be..."
Kameda Zhibin slowly shook his head and said, "If he were the God of ughter, I wouldn''t dare to send someone to investigate him; that would be asking to lose my head. The reason I concluded he isn''t the God of ughter is because in the Western Dark World, the God of ughter is so called because everyone who has provoked his displeasure has invariably died in the Yellow Springs. If he were the God of ughter, you who just pointed a gun at him, and you who suddenly attacked him, would both be dead."
Sonichiro Shochikawa nodded, agreeing with Kameda Zhibin''s argument.
"So, since he isn''t the God of ughter, our money... won''t be so easy to win!"
A fierce glint shed in Kameda Zhibin''s eyes, and he gripped the wine ss forcefully, which instantly shattered into a pile of ss shards falling to the floor.
His mood was very, very bad.
He had led the team to the Celestial Sea for three years, and it wasn''t until three days ago that the organization had assigned a task for the first time.
Excitedly leading the team into action, executing the mission, only for it to end in failure!
The first mission execution, and it ended in failure!
The organization was furious, harshly berating the entire squad, and he, as the leader, naturally received the harshest criticism.
After reporting the task failure, the higher-ups, in addition to the scolding, gave him a deadline for the mission; if it wasn''tpleted in three days, he would be forced tomit seppuku!
But the task deadline was just two hours away, and there had been no feedback from the people sent out.
If in the next two hours, the mission still showed no progress, Kameda Zhibin would have tomit seppuku.
He wouldn''t disobey orders.
Because even if he disobeyed and didn''tmit seppuku, someone would "help" him disembowel himself.
Kameda Zhibin was extremely upset, with nowhere to vent!
Ye Huan had just walked away with 24 million from the boxing arena, and he was genuinely infuriated.
He even began to ponder, if the mission truly failed, he would take Ye Huan to hell with him.
His mood grew more and more irritable.
Five minutester.
On the coffee table, the phone screen lit up, followed by the sound of a standard, perfect East wind ringtone.
"Naruto! Sasuke! Naruto! Sasuke!"
Kameda Zhibin picked up the phone.
Seeing the caller, he immediately answered eagerly.
"Moshi moshi?"
Before he could ask a question, the other party already answered.
The answer made Kameda Zhibin overjoyed!
"Lord Zhibin, several subordinates searched the entire Celestial Sea and finally found the corpse of a person who died from B-max near the garbage dump of the Liu Family residence."
"And we also captured a woman who seemed to have traces of B-max on her body..."
"This woman''s name is..."
"Liu Dandan!"
Chapter 433 - 426 The Impulse to Kiss!
"What!"
"Xie Yongqiang has already released your mom and Xiaoxiao!?"
"Is that true?"
Tang Dongqiang widened his eyes as he stepped out of the bar.
"Of course, and he said he''s giving us three years to make aeback and repay him."
Tang Yao''s face was cold as she said, "Use this money to pay off the debts to rtives and friends. You''ll probably have about two million left. I hope you can use this as startup capital to make aeback and fill the hole of Xie Yongqiang''s high-interest loan in three years."
Tang Dongqiang: "..."
He was stunned.
Xie Yongqiang not only let Hu Pingtong and Tang Xiaoxiao go, but also voluntarily gave the Tang Family three years to repay the money?
How is that possible!
How could Xie Yongqiang be so kind!?
Unless... did Tang Yao sumb to Xie Yongqiang, making some dirty deal with him...
Thinking of his daughter being preyed upon by Xie Yongqiang...
Tang Dongqiang''s eyes turned red, like an enraged lion.
But soon, he sensed something was wrong.
If Tang Yao had sumbed to Xie Yongqiang, then who was this "gambling god" beside her?
This guy wore a security guard''s uniform, but his demeanor was nothing like a security guard''s. Instead, he resembled a noble young master, exuding unbeatable strength that even the underground fighting pit dared not obstruct.
Could it be... did Tang Yao sumb to him, bing his woman, and then he took action to settle things with Xie Yongqiang?
In that case, it all makes sense!
That would exin why Tang Yao was partial to him at the underground fight, fearing she might offend someone even more formidable than Xie Yongqiang!
"Yao Yao, let me ask you." Tang Dongqiang pulled Tang Yao aside, taking a deep breath. In a low voice, he asked, "Tell me, did you submit yourself to him to get his help?"
Tang Yao raised an eyebrow, "What kind of person do you take me for..."
Before she could finish, she swallowed back thest word and nodded with a cold face.
Tang Dongqiang looked heartbroken.
"My affairs are none of your business. What you need to do is use this money to repay debts, make aeback if you can, never go to the casino again, and be nicer to mom and Xiaoxiao!
If you gamble again, I''ll take mom and Xiaoxiao and leave you; it''ll be as if you don''t exist in this family anymore!"
After speaking, Tang Yao left a slip of paper with an address in front of Tang Dongqiang, then took Ye Huan, hailed a taxi, and left.
The address on the note was the temporary residence that Ye Huan had previously contacted Ma Zhiqiang to rent for the Tang Family.
Watching the taxi drive away, Tang Dongqiang copsed to the ground, utterly powerless.
As a father, he knew Tang Yao very well.
She longed for love but was very traditional and conservative, never having any rumors with any man.
Even when it came to blind dates, she would always say, "Love can''t be forced. It depends on fate. If it happens, it happens; if not, I won''t marry or have anything to do with a man for the rest of my life!"
But to save the Tang Family from falling into the abyss, she... she submitted to that capable man named Ye Huan!
She sacrificed her principles to save the Tang Family, handing herself over to Ye Huan!
All because of... because of me!
All because I was self-indulgent and refused to heed advice!
Tang Dongqiang felt very sorrowful.
Sorrowful to the extreme!
He felt he... was a failure as a father!
...
"Yes, mom, don''t tell him the truth about the matter, just say Xie Yongqiang gave us three years, that''s all."
"Okay, keep a close eye on him. Now that he has a lot of money, make sure he doesn''t gamble again!"
"Okay then, I''ll see you tonight, bye-bye!"
At Tianyun International, in the security office, Tang Yao made a call to Hu Pingtong.
The reason she asked Hu Pingtong to help "cover up" by saying Xie Yongqiang only granted the Tang Family three years to save money, instead of telling Tang Dongqiang that Xie Yongqiang''s group had all died, was to keep her father feeling the threat was still close. This way, he could strive hard, pay off the family and friends'' debts, and use the remaining two million or so to revive within the three years.
Not to mention making aeback, just turning over a new leaf and never gambling on fights again was enough.
"Hey, little rabbit, your dad seems to have misunderstood us, aren''t you going to exin?" Nearby, Ye Huan eximed, holding a teacup.
"No exnation."
"If he''s upset, let him be upset."
Tang Yao snorted coldly. Being the executive secretary at Tianyun International, she naturally had a sharp mind.
She guessed that before the bar, Tang Dongqiang thought she had "submitted" to Ye Huan, reaching some kind of deal with him, which led to Ye Huan stepping in, smoothing over the trouble, and earning the Tang Family three years of breathing space hence his anger.
No... no, that''s not right...
As if realizing something, she sheepishly said, "Misunderstanding? Actually, it''s not exactly a misunderstanding. The reason you helped me this time was to make me your secret lover, wasn''t it..."
Ye Huan was drinking tea, and suddenly he spat it out.
Seeing this, Tang Yao blushed and pouted:
"What, am I wrong?"
"When you stepped in, didn''t you say something like, at least having you as a lover wouldn''t be nauseating?"
"Actually, thinking about it, you barely look passable, and you''ve helped me so much. Whatever you want to do with me, I''m okay with it."
In truth, she was extremely grateful to Ye Huan; otherwise, she wouldn''t have said something about willingly bing his secret lover.
The next second...
"Ah, what are you doing!"
"What, willing to be my lover, but not willing to let me pinch your cheek?" Ye Huan "smirked", pinching one side of Tang Yao''s face with his right hand.
Tang Yao''s face turned crimson, and she gritted her teeth, "You... you must give me some time to ept it, and besides, what if someone catches us here in thepany!?"
"On my wife''s turf, and my wife is your boss, don''t you think... isn''t this exciting?" Ye Huan grinned.
Tang Yao was speechless, her eyes wandering, heart flustered.
Exciting? It''s absolutely thrilling!
But she''s a girl who''s never had physical rtions before; how could she handle such excitement?
"Stop overthinking things, I don''t seek this kind of thrill. When I said in the office you could be my secret lover, it was just to provoke you, get you angry enough to handle things, and then I could follow along to see what''s happening and maybe help."
"Don''t me me for trying to provoke you; I asked you what happened so many times, yet you kept it all to yourself."
Ye Huan pinched Tang Yao''s nose lightly, then gently stroked the scar on her cheek.
Tang Yao blushed to her ears, her mind quite conservative, never having had any contact with males before.
Having her face pinched and touched by Ye Huan, even knowing he was helping her treat her scar, still made her shy, her body temperature rising like she had a fever.
She had to speak to shift her focus, snorting, "I think you''re just saying one thing and meaning another, if you don''t have feelings for me, why did you help me?"
"We''ve known each other for so long; as friends, helping isn''t that strange, is it?"
"Friends? Who''s friends with a slick wolf like you!"
"Not friends? Then do you really want to be my secret lover? If you''re really thinking like that, I''d just have to ''reluctantly'' ept." Ye Huan''s lips curled up, as he lifted Tang Yao''s chin with his right index finger, looking straight at her.
"Pah!" Tang Yao dared not make eye contact, folding her arms, blushing and spitting, "Who wants to be your secret lover, don''t tter yourself!"
"Alright, alright, I''m ttering myself, don''t move." Ye Huan chuckled, cing his hand back on the scar on Tang Yao''s little face.
Tang Yao''s face was hotter than a fever!
But she was obedient, making no further noise.
The office quieted down, and only then did she notice, she and Ye Huan were almost face to face.
Unable to control her eyes, she stared directly at Ye Huan...
Only to realize...
Barely passable looks?
Ye Huan was clearly a hunk!
Too handsome!
Swallowing hard, Tang Yao shifted her focus, blushing, "You... don''t worry, I''ll repay your kindness in the future. The 24 million you earned for my dad, I... I''ll repay it slowly, too."
"No need to repay the money, and don''t talk anymore."
Ye Huanmanded.
Having no choice, Tang Yao had to keep quiet.
But in the silence, being this close to Ye Huan, her heart started to flutter.
His features were well-defined, with fair and radiant skin, and his eyes were the kind of deep that girls love the most.
Tang Yao''s heart thumped, and she felt an impulse to kiss Ye Huan on the cheek...
As if driven by a will not her own, her eyes slowly closed, her lips puckered...
Just then...
"Click..."
The door to the security office, opened...
Chapter 434 - 427 A Series of Misunderstandings…
Li Ying was wearing her work badge as she pushed the door open and walked in, freezing at the scene unfolding in the office.
Snapping back to her senses, she hastily retreated, her face flushing and heart racing, silently chanting to herself: "See no evil! See no evil! See no evil!"
In broad daylight, touching and pinching faces, aren''t they afraid someone might see?
And they didn''t even lock the door!
This is absolutely scandalous!
But speaking of which...
Secretary Tang''s pouty face is so small and cute, no wonder Brother Ye took a liking to her!
"Hmm? Who are you? Why are you standing here?" A woman''s voice came from behind.
Li Ying looked up and saw a very beautiful woman.
She nced at the woman''s name badge.
Deputy Minister of Sales Department - Zhang Huimin!
Zhang Huimin also nced at Li Ying''s badge and was surprised, "You''re Xiao Ye''s secretary?"
"Yes, I just joined today. Hello, Minister Zhang, I''m Li Ying." Li Ying replied somewhat respectfully, after all, the other party''s rank was much higher than hers.
"Hello."
Zhang Huimin shook hands with her with a smile and then asked, "What are you doing outside, why don''t you go in?"
"I... I wouldn''t dare go in, Captain Ye is in there with... with Secretary Tang..." Li Ying stumbled over her words, feeling too embarrassed to continue.
In broad daylight, touching and pinching faces in the office, and when things heat up, who knows what might happen...
This is absolutely scandalous!
No, wait!
This Minister Zhang is so beautiful, with such remarkable charm, and a figure so hot, and she''s calling Brother Ye "Xiao Ye" so affectionately, could she also be one of Brother Ye''s women?
Very possible!
Li Ying thought things were not going well.
As apetent secretary, how could she let the other women in thepany discover the boss''s affairs while they''re having their affectionate moments?
This could lead to an Asura field!
"Minister Zhang, don''t... don''t get the wrong idea, I... I mean, Captain Ye is in there with Secretary Tang..."
Li Ying hadn''t figured out how to cover for herself and got stuck there after blurting it out.
Then...
Zhang Huimin covered her face and quickly fled the scene!
"Minister Zhang, wait!" Li Ying chased after her, but the elevator door had already closed.
She felt a deep sense of guilt, feeling she was an ipetent and insufficient secretary, failing to handle things correctly. It was a disaster!
Sigh, I just hope Minister Zhang didn''t misunderstand too much!
Little did she know, things were worse than she imagined!
Twice, Li Ying got stuck on "Captain Ye and Secretary Tang are in there...", and then felt too embarrassed to continue.
As a woman well-versed in these matters, how could Zhang Huimin not understand what Li Ying was implying!
She absolutely meant that Xiao Ye and Tang Yao were in the office...
Zhang Huimin, covering her burning cheeks, felt both angry and sour.
Having not seen Ye Huan for many days, she missed her beloved deeply, so when she heard Ye Huan was back at thepany, she rushed down to see him.
Who knew he was in the office...
And even found a secretary to "stand guard" for him!
So bad!
She said she could tolerate him having other women, but didn''t mean he''d ignore her once he did have someone else!
She understood that a near-perfect man like Ye Huan couldn''t be possessed by just one woman, and was prepared to share him with others.
But when it actually happened, she felt uncontrobly jealous.
Especially since, after Ye Huan "got together with Tang Yao", he hadn''te to see her or contacted her for days!
Too much! And to think she was pining for him day and night!
The more she thought about it, the sourer she felt. Returning to her office in a huff, Zhang Huimin gritted her teeth and directly blocked all of Ye Huan''s contact information on her phone.
...
In the security office, as Li Ying exited, Tang Yao shivered, pulling back her lips with a face full of shame and anger.
"What''s wrong?" Ye Huan asked in confusion.
"You... you touching my face was seen by... by someone!" Tang Yao, seeing that Ye Huan appeared unaffected and hadn''t realized her pouting aim to kiss him, was relieved, though still overflowing with embarrassment.
Ye Huan didn''t notice, but that pretty woman certainly did!
"Well, if she saw, she saw. She''s my secretary Li Ying, she won''t spread anything around, don''t worry," Ye Huan said with a smile.
"But... but..." Tang Yao was utterly mortified.
Ye Huan appeared unconcerned, saying, "There''s no ''but'' about it. She''s one of us, she won''t say a word. The sky knows, the earth knows, you know, I know, and she knows, but no third person will find out."
Tang Yao was so embarrassed that she wanted to bury her head.
Part of her embarrassment was that Li Ying saw Ye Huan touching and pinching her face.
But what mattered more was that her "naughty thoughts" were seen by Li Ying, and that was the crux of the matter!
Ye Huan had no idea she wanted to kiss him!
If Li Ying told Ye Huan about her "naughty thoughts"...
For a moment, Tang Yao wished she could find a hole to crawl into; she looked like a "human steam engine," her body temperature so high it seemed to be smoking.
What she didn''t know was that Li Ying saw her pout and thought she was just being yful with Ye Huan, without a clue that she intended to sneak a kiss.
"Phew"
Exhaling a breath of air, Ye Huan retracted his hand, leaned back a bit, and said, "I just used a special technique to repair the loweryers of your skin. Topletely remove the knife scar, you''ll need to apply medicine for five days. After five days, the scar will be entirely gone, without a trace. I''ll write you a prescription, and you can go to a Chinese medicine shop to get the ingredients."
With that said, Ye Huan scribbled a prescription on a slip of paper and handed it to Tang Yao.
"Th-thank you! But, I still have a question to ask you..."
"Oh, I can tell you get your period three times a month because of liver fire attacking the heart. The herbs in my prescription can treat this problem for you, don''t worry about it. As for treating ailments... I''m a professional!" Ye Huan replied confidently, letting out a snort of pride.
"You''re the old sow... No, you''re the one who gets her period three times a month!"
Tang Yao shamefully and angrily hit Ye Huan before quickly getting up and leaving the security office.
Her physical issues being pinpointed by Ye Huan left her so embarrassed she wished she could disappear.
After reaching the office''s entrance, Tang Yao looked around and then pulled Li Ying to the end of the corridor, whispering, "You''re Secretary Li, right?"
"Yes, Secretary Tang, please... please don''t me me, I... I didn''t mean to disturb you two. Don''t mind me!"
"I really didn''t mean it, I''m sorry!"
Li Ying looked apologetic and gave a bow.
As apetent secretary, she certainly didn''t want to be disliked by her superior''s "woman."
She thought Tang Yao was mad because her "good moment" got interrupted, so she apologized.
"That''s not it, what I wanted to talk to you about isn''t that, and I''m not ming you. Rest assured."
"Really? I mean, I... I did interrupt you and Brother Ye, Secretary Tang, are you not mad at me?"
"Not mad at you, don''t worry." Tang Yao reassured her, ncing around cunningly once more before trying to speak.
But Li Ying sighed in relief and then eximed first, blinking starry eyes topliment, "Secretary Tang, you looked so cute pouting just now in the office..."
"What I wanted to tell you is precisely about that!"
"Don''t ever tell Ye Huan about this!"
"If he finds out I wanted to sneak a kiss, I''ll never be able to face him again!"
Tang Yao broke in, flustered and ashamed, stopping Li Ying.
Li Ying froze immediately, then eximed, "Secretary Tang, wasn''t that a tsundere expression, how could it be you wanted to sneak a kiss with Captain Ye..."
Boom!
Tang Yao''s mind went nk.
That''s when she realized she misunderstood Li Ying!
This had backfired!
Initially, only she knew she was nning to sneak a kiss with Ye Huan, but now, she had gone and told Ye Huan''s secretary!
"Secretary Tang, you can rest assured, I will never reveal your little secret." Li Ying sincerely blinked herrge eyes twice before seriously saying, "Secretary Tang, you should return. As an ountable secretary, I''ll guard the door for you, ensuring no one gets near the security office while you handle matters!"
Her words were firm and decisive!
"It''s over already, don''t ever tell Ye Huan about my pouting!"
Realizing that Li Ying knew about her desire to sneak a kiss with Ye Huan, Tang Yao left these words and dashed off with a face flushed with embarrassment.
The "matter" she spoke of beingpleted was referring to the treatment of her knife scar.
But in Li Ying''s mind, the matter that Tang Yao and Ye Huanpleted was...
Li Ying thought that Tang Yao suddenly ran off because she was still mad, reaching out to hold her back when she tried to apologize, only to be stunned by what Tang Yao had said on her exit.
What, the matter is done!?
And it was over early!?
That was fast!
Could it be... could it be Captain Ye suffers from some chronic condition?
Li Ying was dumbfounded.
Ye Huan has a well-toned body, full of powerful muscles, he doesn''t look frail at all!
How could this be!?
But Secretary Tang had previously mentioned she wasn''t mad at her, so why such a hasty departure
Li Ying nodded knowingly.
No doubt about it, Secretary Tang was definitely angry with Brother Ye!
Emotions were high, but Brother Ye was unable to handle it, and it made Secretary Tang upset!
Sigh!
Li Ying let out a deep sigh, her expression growing even more serious. As a capable secretary, she felt it...
Imperative to help the boss regain confidence and restore self-esteem!
She opened the door and entered the security office.
Chapter 435 - 428: Hawkish Slave Wife Technique!
Li Ying felt very sorry for Ye Huan.
So handsome, so strong, and such an outstanding man, how could he contract such a persistent ailment?
The old saying is indeed true...
When Buddha opens a door for you, he''ll close another window.
Brother Ye is perfect in every aspect, but Buddha yed a huge joke on him, making him unable to hold his head up in front of women!
Sigh!
Li Ying let out a long sigh in her heart, then secretly made up her mind.
As a qualified secretary, she mustfort and encourage her boss, she must help Brother Ye regain his confidence!
"Hmm? Li Ying, why are you standing at the door? Come in and sit," Ye Huan said.
"Oh, okay."
Li Ying responded and sat on the other side of the sofa, blinking as she asked, "Brother Ye, as your secretary, what should I be doing?"
"Doing what?"
Ye Huan thought for a moment and concluded seriously: "You don''t need to do anything."
"Huh? Don''t need to do anything?"
"Right, but you could try learning to use aputer, the office has one." Ye Huan smiled.
To be honest, Brother Huan really doesn''t need a so-called secretary.
If it weren''t for those issues with Tang Yao, he should have already been asking Liu Tianyun why she arranged Li Ying to be his secretary.
Brother Huan''s job is just napping all day, why would he need a secretary?
"Rest assured Brother Ye, I''ll learn diligently."
Li Ying said earnestly.
Then, she nonchntly pulled out her phone, scrolled through, and pretended to look at news, eximing, "What! More than five minutes and you''ve already defeated eighty percent of men? So impressive!?"
"Pff!"
Ye Huan was drinking tea at that moment, and upon hearing this, he spat it out in surprise.
Brother Huan''s face turned ck as a pot bottom, what kind of news is Li Ying reading? Tabloid news!?
Li Ying nced at Ye Huan from the corner of her eye, seeing his darkened expression, she inwardly cursed herself while feeling deeply guilty.
This secretary... she''s so ipetent!
She totally forgot Brother Ye is suffering from an ailment.
Five minutes is probably unthinkable for him!
Now great, instead of encouraging Brother Ye, she seriously hurt his self-esteem!
Li Ying was extremely self-critical.
At the same time, she dismissed the idea offorting Ye Huan.
She couldn''t possibly say that even a few seconds would defeat 0.00001 percent of men, could she?
That''s notfort, that''s another blow to his self-esteem!
Sigh!
What to do...
Just when she was deeply troubled, her eyes suddenly brightened, and she quickly looked at her phone screen, eximing aloud:
"Celestial Sea University Affiliated Men''s Hospital: Frailty causing marital discord? Wife exiningte nights away as exercising with a young buck? Coming home only to taunt you with a middle finger."
"Comrade, don''t wait any longer! If you keep waiting, the wildflowers will wilt! Come to our men''s clinic, where world-ss male health experts will personally consult and develop a treatment n just for you!"
"Make the discontented domestic tigress see you in a new light, never daring to rebuke you again;"
"Let''s hear from little-known online novel writer, author of "The Soldier King of the Female CEO," Sweet-Sour Carp, who experienced life changes after treatment at our clinic!"
"Sweet-Sour Carp expressed deep gratitude and said: ''I was physically and mentally empty, writing for eight hours a day yet only producing three to four chapters, making readers call me shameless and me feeling utterly dejected and insecure, but after receiving expert treatment at the men''s clinic, everything changed!
Weak man? After the specialist treatment at our men''s clinic, I transformed overnight, producing seven chapters in one night!
In thete night, I wield a key; a key that can open heaven! A key that can y immortals! A key from the sky can preserve the world!
Four updates not enough? I did forty updates!
Still not enough at forty? To prove myself, to be a real man, I did four hundred updates!

Chapter 436 - 429: Misunderstanding?
Li Ying spoke rapidly about an advertisement, then suddenly, looking very excitedly at Ye Huan, blinked her lively big eyes several times
The ad is so prominent, so confident, maybe this Tianfu Men''s Health could really have some tricks to cure Big Brother Ye''s stubborn problem in that area!
If Big Brother Ye could really solve that issue, then I would be a more qualified andpetent secretary!
Ye Huan: "..."
His face turned darker than Bao Zheng''s, and he said: "Are you a spokesperson for Tianfu Men''s Hospital or something?"
"No, no, no!" Li Ying shook her head like a rattle drum, then blinked her big eyes again, seriously saying: "I''m saying, Big Brother Ye, you could go go there..."
She bit her lip, refraining from saying more, as it was too damaging to one''s self-esteem!
Ye Huan had no idea what Li Ying was doing, so he changed the subject, casually reminding: "Secretary Tang has thin skin, don''t mention what you saw before."
"Mm-hmm, okay." Li Ying said this, hesitated a bit, her expression slightly changed, then shrank her head, weakly saying: "Big Brother Ye I I seem to have messed up something."
"Messed up something? What is it?" Ye Huan picked up his tea cup and took a sip.
Li Ying hesitated for a moment, then confessed the earlier misunderstanding that Zhang Huimin had, and then weakly said: "Big Brother Ye, I''m sorry, you you can punish me"
Unexpectedly, Ye Huan spewed out his tea, turned dark-faced, picked up his phone, found Zhang Huimin in his contacts, and dialed her number.
While waiting for the call to connect, Ye Huan was genuinely anxious.
"Captain Ye and Secretary Tang are inside"
That sentence left too much to the imagination!
Any adult would think it means: "Captain Ye and Secretary Tang are inside"
"Sorry, your call has been cklisted."
The cold female voice of the system sounded, and Ye Huan''s mouth twitched fiercely.
No need to guess, Zhang Huimin definitely misunderstood!
This misunderstanding is huge!
Opened WeChat.
Sure enough, also cklisted!
"Big Brother Ye you you can punish me, even if you want to fire me, I have noints, it was my dereliction of duty!" Li Ying said self-reproachfully.
But how could Ye Huan have the mind to talk about this? He directly rushed out the door and ran to the sales department from the staircase!
"Hey, Big Brother Ye!" Li Ying chased after him, but how could she keep up with Ye Huan?
She could only stomp her feet and self-reproachfully return to the office.
Sigh, wanting to be a qualified secretary, there''s still a long way to go, much effort is needed!
Li Ying clenched her small fists, her face resolute.
...
Tianyun International, Vice Minister of Sales Office.
After such an incident, Zhang Huimin lost all interest in work, lying powerlessly on the desk, her head buried in her hands, having kicked off her high heels, her fair feet continuously kicking the desk, utterly bothered.
Bothered to the point that when someone quietly entered the office and locked the door, she didn''t even notice
Dead! Being cklisted for so long and not even noticing!
Having another woman, you''ve forgotten about me, men worldwide are truly all scum!
"Scumbag!"
"Scumbag!"
"Scumbag!"
Zhang Huimin scolded repeatedly, her hands continuously pounding on the table.
A few minutester, she slowly lifted her head, tidying her disheveled hair behind her ears, and then picked up the phone on the desk.
She tried several times to add back Ye Huan''s WeChat but always sighed and gave up.
Probably by now, Ye Huan is still in the office with Tang Yao taking care of things?
Adding back now, if there''s a notification sound, it would interrupt them.
"Truly a scumbag!"
"If you don''t add me back today, I''m not done with you!"
Zhang Huimin angrily put the phone back on the table.
Suddenly, "Ding," a WeChat message notification sounded.
She immediately felt joy, picking up her phone.
Friend request: Ye Huan!
She was overjoyed, yet she muttered to herself with a cold snort, "After having another woman, you neglected me, I''ll also neglect you."
Her finger hovered over the ept button, but she didn''t press it immediately.
So someone grabbed her hand and pressed it on the "ept" button.
Zhang Huimin was stunned and then screamed loudly!
"Sister Zhang, how could you, blocking me for no reason, not adding me back? Is it because your husband''s authority can''t keep you in line?"
Hearing this familiar teasing voice, Zhang Huimin turned around, her face suddenly flushed: "Little Ye, w-why are you in my office?"
"Haven''t seen you in so long, I missed you a bit, so I came over." Ye Huan smiled.
"Missed me?" Zhang Huimin looked away, snorting: "Who''d believe that, with such a great beauty as Secretary Tang, you must have forgotten all about me?"
"Why is someone''s tone so sour, as if you''ve had a bottle of ten-year-old vinegar?" Ye Huan teased intentionally.
Zhang Huimin''s eyes turned resentful, "I''m just sour; with Tang Yao around, you don''t contact me, shouldn''t I be sour?"
"Sister Zhang, who do you take me for? How could I be so scummy!" Ye Huan snorted coldly: "Given that you''vemitted the crime of defaming your husband, your husband is going to punish you well!"
The scene suddenly became quite spectacr
...
In the evening, the working masses ended a day''s work, tiredly tugged their ties, wiped the fine beads of sweat from their foreheads, and dragged their weary bodies on the way home.
The dusk poured over the earth, making the fine beads on their foreheads shine brilliantly.
The working masses had finished work.
Tianyun International, Vice Minister of Sales Office.
The battle settled.
After exhaling a puff of impure air, Ye Huan pushed open the office window.
The indoor temperature dropped sharply, and the strange smell dispersed.
Chapter 437 - 430: Very Soft and Bouncy!
Zhang Huimin curled up like a kitten on the sofa, asking with a hint of sadness, "Didn''t you already... with Tang Yao? How do you still have so much energy?"
"Zhang Jie, don''t overthink it, it''s all a misunderstanding."
"It was all Li Ying, my secretary spreading rumors."
"Don''t you know my skills? How could I end it so quickly ande up to find you?"
Ye Huan spoke with a face full of smugness.
Zhang Huimin''s expression turned a bit strange. With Ye Huan''s words, she actually believed him, knowing well about his capabilities.
"Zhang Jie, there''s really nothing between Tang Yao and me, we''re just pure friends."
"In the office, I was just helping her treat a scar on her face, pinching her face a bit, and this scene was seen by Li Ying, which led to the misunderstanding."
Ye Huan sat beside her, gently hugging her.
Zhang Huimin red at him fiercely, sulking, "Then exin why you haven''t contacted me for so many days, not even replying to the WeChat messages I sent. Don''t you know how much I miss you, how worried I am about you!"
"Ah, these past few days, I really have been busy. I first went to Suzhou and Hangzhou, then back to Celestial Sea, anyway... just very busy."
Ye Huan vaguely exined, naturally avoiding mentioning the matters with Jiang Tiansha and the Zhong Family to Zhang Huimin.
After all, telling her about these things would inevitably cause unnecessary worry, like worrying about Brother Huan being retaliated against or something.
Zhang Huimin sighed with a mncholy air, burying her head in Ye Huan''s chest, softly saying, "I understand you''re very busy, but... I also hope you can find some time amidst your busyness to reply to my WeChat, just to let me know you''re safe, so I can be at ease."
Ye Huan raised an eyebrow and winked, "So, you''re not mad at me?"
"How would I dare to be mad at Lord Ye? I just hope that Lord Ye won''t neglect this little girl," Zhang Huimin sighed again, her eyes growing more mncholic.
"Still simmering with anger."
"Believe me, there''s really nothing between Tang Yao and me."
Ye Huan disyed sincerity all over his face.
"I''m not against you having something with her, still the same old words. I just hope that when you have other women, you won''t neglect me either. Do you know how upset I was when I went to find you and then heard those things from Li Ying?" Zhang Huimin''s voice grew more aggrieved, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Don''t worry, no matter who I neglect, it won''t be you. I''m still nning to take you away to the countryside in a few days, hoping you can give me two babies." Ye Huan smiled and gave her a peck on the cheek, finally soothing some of her emotions.
"I''m not having your babies, you heartless man!" Zhang Huimin blushed, hummed in a voice full of contradictions, and got up to tidy up her clothes.
As she straightened her clothes, she nonchntly asked, "So, what''s the deal with you and Secretary Tang?"
"You''re pretending not to care about me and her, but you''re still jealous, aren''t you?" Ye Huan teased.
"I''m not jealous, I don''t care!" Zhang Huimin red, getting angry out of embarrassment.
"Say it!"
Ye Huanughed as he got up and also started tidying his clothes, then narrated what happened with the Tang Family.
Except that he reduced the part about eliminating a dozen hooligans to just them causing trouble and shing at Tang Yao''s face, and how Brother Huan drove them away to avoid making Zhang Huimin worry.
As for the underground boxing arena, hepletely skipped over it.
"A woman with a facial scar would really have a hard time getting married. I conveniently have medical skills, so I decided to help her to the end, like a monk helping a lost soul to the West, treating her scar in the office, which happened to be witnessed by Li Ying, leading to that outrageous ''Captain Ye and Secretary Tang inside...'' rumor."
"If you don''t believe me, you can meet Tang Yao tomorrow, the scar on her face hasn''t been fully removed yet, that should prove my innocence."
Ye Huan exined once again.
Seeing him exining so earnestly, Zhang Huimin felt warm inside.
Doesn''t this prove that the man in front of her cares a lot about her? Cares about whether she''s angry?
"So, how''s the feeling of pinching Secretary Tang''s face?" Zhang Huimin asked yfully with a raised corner of her mouth.
Seeing Zhang Huimin was just joking, Ye Huan curved his mouth into a grin and replied, "Very soft, very bouncy, very smooth, you know~."
While saying this, Brother Huan smacked his lips a couple of times.
"Pervert!"
"That''s enough, let''s clock out!"
Zhang Huimin blushed and spat, fastening thest button, and turned to leave the office.
But as she just stepped out, she froze.
"Liu... President Liu." Zhang Huimin greeted, lowering her head slightly guilty.
"Hmm, now that work is over, I''ve been trying to call Ye Huan, but couldn''t get through. Hearing from other employees, it seems he''s here with you, is he?" Liu Tianyun asked, neither warmly nor coldly.
"He..."
"Why are you looking for me, is there something?"
As Zhang Huimin was unsure whether to nod or shake her head, Ye Huanzily strolled out.
"The end..." As the first word left her mouth, Liu Tianyun''s gaze turned rather peculiar as she nced at Ye Huan''s neck, then at Zhang Huimin''s lips, and finally said tly, "Work is over, go home, you weren''t answering your phone earlier."
"Oh, let''s go."
Ye Huan, hands behind his head, headed towards the elevator.
His casual demeanor contrasted sharply with Zhang Huimin''s apparent awkwardness.
Liu Tianyun nced once more at Zhang Huimin''s lips, shook her head helplessly, and followed after Ye Huan.
Once their figures hadpletely disappeared, Zhang Huimin let out a sigh of relief, lifting her head slightly.
But she was still very guilty!
She dashed back into the office, red-faced, to clean up the mess!
...
"Let me ask, Li Ying was here for an office clerk position, so why did you transfer her to me, to be my secretary?"
In the driver''s seat of the Rolls-Royce Phantom, Ye Huan steered the vehicle while inquiring.
The passenger seat, where Liu Tianyun sat, her faceposed, spoke shocking words: "So it''s convenient for you to have something for the secretary to do, and nothing... well, you know."
Ye Huan stumbled, almost pitching forward onto the console.
Once heposed himself, he twitched his mouth and said, "You''re overthinking it, I''m not that kind of person."
Liu Tianyun''s response was just a light chuckle.
The meaning was obvious: Do you think I believe that?
Ye Huan''s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, but he didn''t exin.
After all, Brother Huan''s current goal was to keep his distance from Liu Tianyun, so that a monthter he could bring her back to the vige, see his master, and sessfully divorce her!
Even speaking one more word with her would be of all harm and no benefit!
Actually, it wasn''tpletely Liu Tianyun''s fault for being suspicious.
Li Ying, whether in figure or appearance, was identical to Zhong Qianqian.
In the Capital City, Zhong Qianqian is among the top ten A-list beauties, with a figure''s overall level above that of a supermodel!
Ye Huan, in the lobby of Tianyun International, coaxed such a great beauty, telling her he could help her get a job...
Plus, from the surveince, Liu Tianyun could see that this great beauty knew Ye Huan, so naturally, she assumed Li Ying was Ye Huan''s "little lover."
One Li Ying.
Another caught "in the act" Zhang Huimin.
Liu Tianyun rubbed her throbbing temples and sighed heavily with difficulty.
It''s known that Ye Huan has at least two lovers already, who knows how many more there are behind the scenes.
There are so many "sisters" to try to get along with!
But there''s nothing I can do, after all, I let him indulge himself before.
In a month, after meeting his mentor, I''ll start the "Gentleman Transformation n" to make him truly be my man!
...
Peni Lakefront, S-01.
As soon as they got out of the car, Ye Huan and Liu Tianyun smelled the enticing aroma of food wafting from the vi.
Upon entering the vi, the two saw a flurry of activity in the kitchen.
"Tianyun, Xiao Huan, go wash your hands, dinner is almost ready." From the kitchen, Lilu saw the two as they entered, smiled.
"You''re back."
On the sofa in the living room, Ye Tiance sat with his legs crossed, wearing gold-rimmed sses, looking like a boss while reading the newspaper.
Ye Huan responded with an "Mm," and plopped down on the other end of the sofa, casually asking, "How''s the situation at the Forensic Bureau going?"
Ye Tiance nced at Liu Tianyun, about to speak.
"I''ll go help mom in the kitchen." Liu Tianyun smiled, shook her head slightly, tied her long ck hair into a ponytail, and trotted off to the kitchen.
"You''re really lucky to have found such an understanding wife." Ye Tiance praised.
Ye Huan was speechless.
Does Liu Tianyune with some kind of "happy inws buff"? Why do Ye Tiance and Lilu like her so much?
Once Liu Tianyun entered the kitchen, Ye Tiance finally answered.
"Ninjas."
"Judging by the signs of a struggle at the scene and the injuries to the Forensic Bureau officers on duty, my preliminary assessment is that this was done by ninjas from Japan."
Ye Tiance closed the newspaper in his hand and continued, "Currently, it''s estimated that there are about five to eight Genin, and one Chunin among them."
Ninjas?
Upon hearing this word, Ye Huan''s eyes suddenly narrowed to slits.
He remembered that after he killed Shikng in the underground fight arena, the person who ambushed him, Xiao Chuan Sun Ichiro, was a Japanese ninja.
However, this person''s skill was unimpressive at best, just an advanced Genin, so Ye Huan hadn''t given it much thought.
After all, Brother Huan is a Celestial God level existence in the Dark Worldthe God of ughter, strong enough to rival the highest-ranking Divine Ninjas from Japan!
Genin? They''re just ants.
But it''s quite the coincidence. Could the force behind that arena possibly be Japanese ninjas?
"Even Chunin and Genin can sneak into Huaxia without a sound, what''s your Special Service Bureau good for? Might as well disband." Ye Huan remarked.
Ye Tiance''s face instantly turned as dark as a pot bottom, unable to find a retort to Ye Huan''s jab.
"This address might lead to a ''special discovery for you''." Ye Huan tossed a slip of paper.
The line on the paper was the address of the underground fight arena.
"Thanks." Ye Tiance took the note, stood up to straighten his crisp military uniform, and walked towards the vi''s entrance.
"Not staying for dinner?" Ye Huan asked.
Ye Tiance waved a hand to indicate he wasn''t staying, then left the vi.
"Dinner''s ready!"
"Hmm?" Lilu noticed only Ye Huan in the living room and asked in confusion, "Xiao Huan, where did your dad go?"
"He''s off to handle things at the Forensic Bureau."
"That''s great, I''ve had enough of looking at his ugly mug. Without him, us three girls will enjoy our meal more."
Lilu snorted coldly, then continued to move between the kitchen and the living room, setting the delicious, perfectly prepared dishes on the dining table.
Ye Huan''s mouth twitched.
If Ye Tiance has an ugly face, then what about me, his son, who inherited his genes?
Dammit, that''s a "backhandedment"!
At the dining table, somehow, the atmosphere was quite strange.
Lilu kept ncing at Ye Huan, then turning to look at Liu Tianyun, who was focused on eating.
Back and forth, for over ten minutes already.
In this awkward atmosphere, Brother Huan was getting goosebumps, and even though the food was appetizing, he didn''t have the heart to eat.
About five minutester, Liu Tianyun put down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth with a napkin, stood up, and smiled, "Mom, I''m full. Your cooking is fantastic, even better than a five-star chef''s. I''m going upstairs to change, you two continue eating."
With that, she went up the stairs to the second-floor bedroom.
At the dining table, Lilu''s gaze towards Ye Huan became increasingly peculiar.
Ye Huan finally couldn''t hold it in and asked, "What are you looking at?"
"You little rascal."
"Don''t you know how to cover up? How can you be so dumb!"
"Is your ''little lover'' from Tianyun International?"
Lilu looked exasperated, letting out a long sigh.
Ye Huan''s face turned red.
He thought it might be necessary to let Lilu know in advance who his "real daughter-inw" was.
"The Deputy Director of Sales at Tianyun InternationalZhang Huimin." Ye Huan hinted.
"Impressive, seeking excitement right under your wife''s nose, and in broad daylight too."
Lilu sarcastically gave Ye Huan a thumbs up, left a "Going tofort my precious daughter-inw," then put down her chopsticks and also went upstairs to the second-floor bedroom.
Lover, seeking excitement, broad daylight.
How did Lilu know about this?
Knowing these messy affairs had reached his mom, Ye Huan''s face flushed and his heart puzzled.
After pondering for a bit, Ye Huan thought of something.
Earlier at Tianyun International, just aftering out of the Deputy Director of Sales'' office, Liu Tianyun had been staring at his neck.
Lilu''s gaze earlier had also been fixed on his neck.
Could it be...
Ye Huan''s eye twitched a few times, and he quickly ran to the bathroom.
Sure enough!
Hickeys!
All left by Zhang Huimin!
Dammit!
Chapter 438 - 431: The Racial Talent of the Japanese
"All soldiers, listen to orders, fully armed!"
"Destination, Celestial Sea City, Shanae Bar!"
In the rapidly moving Red g car, Ye Tiance held a mobile phone and sternly issued an order.
One minuteter.
Capital City
Su Hang
Celestial Sea
Troops stationed at each Special Service Bureau, all loaded their bullets, and boarded armed helicopters and fighter jets from various locations!
"Wooo"
Various fighter jets whistled by, soaring above the Nine Heavens!
Destination, Celestial Sea, Shanae Bar!
...
Celestial Sea City, Shanae Bar.
In a room resembling a surveince chamber, eight men wearing ck robes and red demon masks stood with hands behind their backs, faces hidden.
On the smooth floor of the room,y a menacing corpse, all ck, and a woman with bloodied lips, swollen cheeks, her clothes covered in dust and dirt.
"The corpse has been found."
"Specific details are being interrogated."
"All those involved in the B-max incident are dead, making an example?"
"Guarantee perfectpletion!"
On the sofa, Kameda Shibin, wearing a samurai outfit, spoke in an extremely respectful tone.
After hanging up the phone and cing it on the coffee table, Kameda Shibin''s face showed joy as he waved his hand, saying, "You handled this matter well, Lord Koku praised us."
The eight men in ck looked at each other, smiling widely beneath their masks.
Kameda Shibin exhaled a turbid breath, appearing refreshed and invigorated.
The mission made great progress, his own life''s danger was basically eliminated.
He stood up, fiddled with the ck corpse on the ground a few times, then leaned close to the terrified Liu Dandan, his nose twitching, sniffing the scent on her.
Approximately a minuteter, after smelling her all over, Kameda Shibin moved his head away with satisfaction, casually reclined back on the sofa, crossed his legs, and said, "Not bad, even though it''s very faint, I can still smell it. This woman has the scent of B-max lingering on her."
"Shibin-sama, it''s fortunate our Japanese sense of smell is much more sensitive than that of normal humans, otherwise it might be undetectable." On the other side of the sofa, Eaglenose Falconeye Kawara Sunichiro disyed a self-satisfied expression.
Kameda Shibin likewise wore a faint smile of pride.
Sharp sense of smell is inherently a racial gift of the Japanese.
Kameda Shibin nudged Liu Dandan with his toe, then coldly asked in broken Huaxianguage, "You, what do you do?"
"MMaster, why did you bring me here, II didn''t offend you!"
Liu Dandan, overwhelmed with fear, cried out.
She had knelt at the Liu Family residence all day, hoping to soften Liu Aimin''s heart and let her return to the Liu Family.
But who could have expected, as her legs went numb from kneeling, gritting her teeth to stand up and leave, she was forcibly abducted by these eight men in ck, suffering several ps during her resistance, which scared her immensely.
"As long as you honestly cooperate, we won''t make things hard for you, just purely asking you questions, what do you do!" Kameda Shibin spoke coldly.
"II am"
"I am Liu Dandan of the Liu Family!"
Liu Dandan heard "honest cooperation won''t be hard," and amidst panic, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why do you have the scent of B-max on you?"
B-max?
Liu Dandan was momentarily stunned, then frowned.
Wasn''t the drug used on that old Liu Aimin B-max back then?
Her throat moved with difficulty as she replied, "Mymy nephew bought B-max onthe dark web"
Then she conveyed the purpose of buying B-max to poison Liu Aimin, along with the conspiracy with Liu Chuanzhi.
"Then the corpse on the ground, it''s the old master of the Liu Family?" Kameda Shibin pointed to the ck corpse.
"No, hehe''s my nephew!"
"He failed in poisoning and got poisoned instead!"
"As for Liu Aimin, that old guy was poisoned but was saved."
Liu Dandan''s words caused a change in expression among all the ten Japanese present.
Poisoned with B-max, yet he was saved!?
It''s known that even the "batch" of defective B-max that circtes in the Dark World has a death rate of an absolute 100%, and no one who has been afflicted by B-max has ever been heard to survive.
Kameda Shibin''s face drastically changed, and after taking a deep breath, he picked up the phone on the coffee table and dialed a call.
"Lord Kokuju, the woman we''ve abducted is a descendant of the Liu Family, one of the four major families of Celestial Sea. She says that her nephew bought B-max on the dark web to poison the old man of the Liu Family, Liu Aimin."
"But Liu Aimin was rescued after being hit by B-MAX!"
Upon hearing this, there was silence from the other end.
When the voice resumed,
the tone of Lord Kokuju turned extremely cold, sinister, and vicious.
"Kill!"
With these words, the call was terminated.
Kameda Shibin looked directly at Liu Dandan with an icy gaze, "The person who saved old Mr. Liu, what the hell does he do!"
Liu Dandan was scared, swallowed hard, and quickly said:
"Ye Huan!"
"He''s... he''s my son-inw!"
"Originally... originally Liu Aimin was already ck all over, poisoned to death, it was him... he intervened and saved Liu Aimin!"
Ye Huan?
Listening to this unfamiliar name, a thick cloud covered Kameda Shibin''s face.
B-max, although he wasn''t deeply involved, he knew some things.
This stuff was the painstaking effort of all top biomedical scientists in Japan and was the most crucial aspect of the grand n for the revival of the Japanese Empire.
The direction of creation was heading towards 100% fatality, with central nervous control.
Even the batch that flowed out from "traitors," which is now the defective B-max circting the Dark World, mightck central nervous control capabilities, but the death rate is absolutely 100%.
This B-max has been circting in the Dark World for quite some time and has never been heard of anyone surviving its poisoning, nor of anyone who could cure the poisoned person.
This person named Ye Huan actually broke the record of B-max''s 100% fatality rate and saved the poisoned Liu Aimin?
"All the details of the incident."
"And your son-inw, Ye Huan as a person."
"Tell me everything!"
Kameda Shibin walked up to Liu Dandan, bent down, and pinched her chin, his words full of overwhelming murderous intent.
Wrapped fully in that murderous intention, Liu Dandan''s face turned pale, yellow liquid uncontrobly spraying from between her legs.
She was scared to pee herself.
She dared not hesitate, her voice trembling as she recounted everything starting from the Liu Family patriarch being pped into a vegetative state by the Crown Prince of Huaxia, the struggle among the descendants for the patriarch position, their conspiracy to eliminate Liu Aimin, intent to join the eldest of the Yu Family, Yu Beixuan, all the way to the destruction of the n by Ye Huan, Liu Aimin being saved, Liu Chuan Zhi being counter-killed, and her expulsion from the Liu Family.
Among this, she cunningly hid the fact that Ye Huan was the Crown Prince of Huaxia and that Ye Tiance and Lis Feng personally went to the Liu Family, dramatically exaggerating Ye Huan''s use of a "demon technique," instantly reviving the already dead Liu Aimin.
Because she heard it, heard the vicious "kill" word from Kameda Shibin''s call earlier, and personally felt the murderous intent emanating from Kameda Shibin.
This murderous intent from the Japanese only became evident after she spoke that it was Ye Huan who saved the poisoned Liu Aimin.
This indicated that their murderous intent was aimed directly at Ye Huan!
So, she deliberately hid Ye Huan''s identity and exaggerated his process of removing the B-max toxicity for Liu Aimin.
Her purpose was to intensify the Japanese people''s desire to kill Ye Huan!
By doing this, she could use the hands of these Japanese people before her to eliminate that oblivious Ye Huan!
Liu Dandan''s lips curled into a sinister smile, a glint of venom flickering in her eyes.
Having such a powerful background, not letting her as a mother-inw benefit, refusing to make her the ''Empress Dowager of Huaxia,'' and even "instructing" Liu Aimin to expel her from the Liu Family, confiscate her property, leaving her in a living hell.
Too despicable!
Her n... was very sessful!
The "demon technique" she attributed to Ye Huan made Kameda Shibin''s expression gloomier to the extreme.
If this man who can remove the B-max toxicity from the human body isn''t eliminated, the revival n of the Japanese Empire might be endangered!
"Bastard!"
"Someone, pull up all information on Ye Huan!"
"Get me all the data on his family members and the information about the vige behind him!"
Kameda Shibin roared at the box''s door.
Meanwhile.
The waiter rushed in gasping, holding a document in his hand.
"Lord Shibin, the... the data on that cunning gambler, who won off twenty-four million here, has been retrieved!"
Chapter 439 - 432: Slaughter the Village Behind Him!
Kameda Shibin raised an eyebrow, taking the documents as he ordered, "Go, investigate the husband of Liu Family''s eldest daughter, Liu Tianyun, Ye Huan, and specifically look into the vige behind him."
Ye Huan?
The waiter was momentarily stunned, then awkwardly said, "Master Shibin, you...you should first look at this document."
Kameda Shibin frowned slightly, his gaze shifting to the A4 paper in his hand, his face suddenly chilled.
Name: Ye Huan.
Gender: Male.
Age: 25.
Currently husband of Liu Family''s eldest daughter, Liu Tianyun, Vice President and Security Captain of Tianyun International.
"Look, is this your son-inw?" Kameda Shibin asked coldly, holding up the A4 paper to Liu Dandan''s gaze.
"Yes, yes, yes, that''s him!" Liu Dandan nodded without hesitation.
Knowing Ye Huan had "old grudges" with this group of Japanese, she almostughed out loud.
These Japanese were clearly not easy to deal with; she had witnessed the strength and speed of those ck-d Japanese, they were extraordinarily powerful.
If Ye Huan provoked them, it was purely courting death!
On the sofa, recalling the detailed recount of events by Liu Dandan earlier, Kameda Shibin''s expressionpletely darkened.
No wonder the corpse couldn''t be found at the Forensic Bureau. It turned out the police, under Ye Huan''s direction, deliberately used a blinding technique on society, misleading Liu Dandan and Liu Chuan Zhi to think Ye Huan was dead, so they could proceed with their n at ease.
This damned brat not only deceived Liu Dandan and Liu Chuan Zhi, but also tricked those who wanted to dispose of the corpse that died from B-max, and he took away 24 million from their venue!
Moreover, at just twenty-five, he possesses medical skills far surpassing Huaxia''s top physician Jiang Jinfu, and relying on those skills, he "revived" Liu Aimin who had been under B-max for hours and showed no signs of life?
No signs of life...
Kameda Shibin understood B-max; once it invades the human body, it first attacks the vital organs, causing one to fall into aa and lose vital signs within ten minutes.
But that''s just the surface!
The toxin then attacks the central nervous system, and after seven to eight hours, it will truly cause death.
Ye Huan must have reversed B-max''s attack on Liu Aimin''s central nervous system, leading to his revival!
Dammit, isn''t the current focus of B-max development precisely targeting the attack and control of the human central nervous system?
Ye Huan possessing the ability to reverse B-max''s attack on the central nervous system is simply naturally an enemy of the great Empire of Japan.
He must be executed!
The revival n of the great Empire of Japan must not suffer any setbacks; all obstacles and indirect obstructions must be eliminated!
A piercing cold light flickered in Kameda Shibin''s eyes, gripping Liu Dandan''s chin harder, questioning, "What is the name of the vige behind Ye Huan, and where is its location?"
"Uh...D-Dad, I...I don''t know."
"However, it should be...should be easy to investigate, probably just a poor, remote vige, unable to attract your attention, sir."
Liu Dandan squeezed out a smile uglier than crying.
Then, her eyes gleamed as she tentatively asked, "Master Shibin, you intend to take out Ye Huan, right?"
"Take him out, and his vige. If you know anything, spit it all out to avoid ending up dead shortly." Kameda Shibin''s words carried an obvious threat.
Liu Dandan was genuinely startled and urgently eximed:
"I...I''m Ye Huan''s mother-inw, and I have a grudge with him too, I can cooperate with you, n to take him out!"
"Even though my rtionship with him isn''t so good now, since I''m his mother-inw, as long as I sincerely admit my wrongs, he''ll definitely reconcile with me."
At this point, she wore a sly grin: "By then, I can coordinate with you from inside and out to send him to hell! Also..."
She then wore a look that was both meaningful and ttering, smiling as she said, "My daughter is the number one beauty in Celestial Sea City, her figure is simply superb. If you are interested, I can introduce her to..."
Before she could finish, she was so frightened by the cold murderous intent in Kameda Shibin''s eyes that she shuddered and fell silent.
Kameda Shibin''s eyes were undisguised in their cold murderous intent, and he spoke with a low voice, "Do you really not know the name of the vige behind Ye Huan or where it''s located?"
Liu Dandan shook her head like a rattle, "I...I really don''t know..."
Kameda Shibin slowly released her chin, returning to sit on the sofa, crossing his legs once more.
Liu Dandan felt a sense of relief, thinking her devious n had seeded, and her face disyed an even more sinister grin.
Who knew...
"Take her away, dispose of her!"
Kameda Shibin waved his hand.
Two ck-d Genin immediately took action, disabling Liu Dandan''s limbs.
Afterwards, the waiter walked in, grabbed Liu Dandan, and dragged her out.
Liu Dandan let out an ear-piercing scream as if her parents had died, crying out, "Sir, what...what are you doing, I can help you kill Ye Huan..."
"I, a Japanese ninja, would never lower my status to conspire with such inferior Huaxia vermin! Dirty tactics, we Japanese ninjas disdain to do!"
"As for your daughter..."
Kameda Shibin''s eyes and expression were full of contempt, picking up a wine ss from the coffee table, he slowly took a sip of beer, then sarcastically said, "Lowly and inferior Huaxia woman, no matter how excellent her figure may be, what qualifications does she have to sleep with a Japanese man? Huaxia people are nothing but ves I will sooner orter rule and enve with Japan. Can a ve dare topare with Japanese nobility? Let me tell you, even your most beautiful Huaxia woman is not worthy to sleep with a Japanese tramp, understand? You should be forever confined to the pigsty!"
Liu Dandan''s face turned paper-white, mouth open as if wanting to say something.
But the waiter, with a cold expression, ced a sharp knife directly against her throat.
"Shah"
The waiter swiftly sliced, making Liu Dandan''s eyes widen in extreme horror, yet she couldn''t utter a sound.
Blood gushed like a fountain from her throat, sttering the floor.
"Dispose of the body, also, send someone to check out the vige behind that kid for me!" Kameda Shibin ordered with a wave.
"Hai!"
The waiter respectfully bowed, then hoisted Liu Dandan''s still-bleeding corpse onto his shoulder, leaving the private room.
...
"Master Shibin, do we really need to deal with this individual?"
In the private room, the expression on the face of Shojin Sun Ichiro was extremely grave. He had briefly crossed paths with Ye Huan, knowing that Ye Huan''s strength far exceeded his own as a senior Genin, and he was not an easy target.
Kameda Shibin nced at him, then said coldly, "This person must be eliminated, and his vige must bepletely massacred as well!"
A poor boy from the vige?
Kameda Shibin wasn''t that foolish.
To possess such powerful medical skills at the age of twenty-five, Ye Huan must have a master whose medical skills are even more formidable behind him.
If even Ye Huan as a disciple can reverse the nervous system toxicity of B-max, then his master...
Without exception, must also have such abilities!
Since that''s the case, regardless of who his master is, as long as they possess such abilities, they will directly or indirectly affect B-max, which is the Empire of Great Japan''s revival n.
Such a person must be killed!
Not a single person from that vige can be spared!
"Lord Shibin..." Beside him, Nokawa Suniro furrowed his brow into a dark line and said with a solemn tone, "This person''sbat strength is extremely formidable and will not be easy to kill."
Kameda Shibin nodded indifferently, "This person''s strength, even I find it hard to fully grasp. Indeed, killing him is quite troublesome."
"How about..." Nokawa Suniro pondered for a moment, then hesitantly asked in a low voice, "How about asking Lord Kunikawa to dispatch a ''Rakshasa''? I''ve heard the experiment has reached its final stage, maybe we can use this opportunity to verify thebat level of ''those things''..."
"This is inappropriate."
Kameda Shibin decisively refused, a cold gaze sweeping over him: "Nokawa, you seem to know a bit too much!"
Nokawa Suniro shivered, his forehead coated with cold sweat, and nodded.
That "Lord Kunikawa" is his cousin, so he knows more than the other eight ck-d Genin present, even much more than Kameda Shibin.
"Unless Lord Kunikawa receives orders from above to begin thebat experiments, we are not to interfere or inquire about those matters."
"Ye Huan''s strength is formidable, but so what? Do you really think he is the God of ughter? If he were the God of ughter, you would have been killed on the spot when you attempted to ambush him!"
Kameda Shibin downed the beer in his cup and then continued with a cold face:
"With me as an Intermediate Chunin, and you, Nokawa, as a Senior Genin leading eight Intermediate Genin, our team of ten will definitely be able to annihte him with precision!"
"At that time, Nokawa, you will lead the main attack, engaging him head-on while the eight of you harass him from the left, right, and rear sides. Your top priority is not to kill him but to exhaust his energy as much as possible!"
"I''ll move in with opportunity, making a surprise kill when he''s utterly exhausted, delivering a fatal blow at the critical moment to send him off to the west!"
Kameda Shibin''s eyes were vicious to the extreme as he spoke. Then, he suddenly crushed the beer ss into a pile of ss shards with a strong grip.
"Yes, sir!"
Nokawa Suniro and the eight ck-d men nodded in unison.
"Once we kill this person, we will not only clear the path for the Empire''s advance but also gain immeasurable benefits," Kameda Shibin spoke again, revealing a trace of excitement on his face.
Nokawa Suniro and the others nced at each other, not understanding what was going on.
Clearing the path for the Empire is their primary job, so what benefits could they gain?
Everyone was puzzled, and said, "Please rify, Lord."
"Ye Huan must be eliminated because he possesses medical skills that counter B-max."
"The vige behind him probably has someone whose medical skills are even more formidable."
"Kill him, and then after we investigate and pinpoint the location of that vige, I will lead you to secretly invade the vige and massacre all the Huaxia pigs there, not sparing a single one, to prevent anyone who might indirectly threaten the revival n of our Great Japan Empire from existing."
"After that, the Liu Aimin who wasn''t killed by B-max must also be eliminated! The Liu Family too must be exterminated!"
"B-max''s 100% mortality rate must not be broken by Huaxia pigs!"
"And the Celestial Sea police who cooperated with Ye Huan to deceive us must bepletely wiped out!"
"As long as we kill all these individuals one by onepletely, our n can proceed smoothly, and the revival of our Great Japan Empire is just around the corner!"
"By then, we who have eliminated countless indirect threats for the Empire will be the most meritorious of the meritorious!"
"We, whose merits are illustrious, will be the most respected and prioritized individuals within the organization!"
"We will surely be groomed by the organization, and might even be a direct disciple of the Divine Ninja, by then, not to mention Jonin, there is a possibility of advancing to Divine Ninja!"
"After bing a Jonin or even a Divine Ninja, we will enter the absolute upper echelon of the organization, with money, beauties, luxury cars, and mansions at our disposal!"
"Besides these, we will also be part of the most powerful figures within the Empire. After the Empire revives"
Kameda Shibin seemed to be filled with immense enthusiasm, his voice grew louder as he continued, and his face became more and more excited.
Finally, he suddenly stood up, raising his hand fiercely towards the sky, and shouted excitedly: "We will punch the Western Dark World and stomp on Huaxia, reaching the top of the world, making all the people in the world be our ves!!!"
For a moment.
Nokawa Suniro and the eight ck-d Geninughed heartily with excitement: "Haha, good!!!"
Kameda Shibin tried to suppress his excitement, waving his hand.
Everyone fell silent.
Kameda Shibin was about to speak again when he frowned.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, the deafening sound of rumbling explosions came from outside, shaking the eardrums relentlessly.
What''s going on?
Road construction with tractors?
Forget it, doesn''t matter.
Kameda Shibin''s frown rxed, and after taking a deep breath, he continued:
"But, this is just the future, we still need to work hard now!"
"What we need to do right now is to take down Ye Huan, eliminate the vige behind Ye Huan, destroy the Liu Family, and wipe out Celestial Sea''s police!"
"If possible, eliminate the entire Special Service Bureau as well, removing all obstacles for the Empire"
At this point, Kameda Shibin''s face suddenly changed dramatically!
"Bang!!!"
After a loud noise, the private room door copsed with a crash.
"Hands up, all of you!"
Chapter 440 - 433: Such great ambition, yet cant understand human speech!?
After a powerful shout, dozens of fully armed Special Service soldiers charged into thepartment with guns.
"Click!"
The sound of gun bolts being opened and bullets being chambered echoed.
Kameda Shibin and his team''s reaction was obviously quick.
"Swish!"
The sound of a de slicing through the air rang out.
Eight ck-d Genin, along with Shochu Sonichiro and Kameda Shibin, all revealed an extremely sharp, eagle hook-shaped knife in their hands.
But just at this moment.
"Hands up!" Kameda Shibin''s face turned ashen as he suddenly threw away the knife in his hand and raised both hands.
The others were puzzled but followed suit.
"ng, ng."
The eagle hook-shaped knives fell to the ground.
As they raised their hands, following Kameda Shibin''s gaze, their faces suddenly changed.
They saw a man with his hands behind his back, expressionless, wearing a full military uniform, walking through the crowd of Special Service soldiers and into thepartment.
Arm patch: Huaxia Special Service Bureau!
Shoulder patch: Three-star General!
Shochu Sonichiro and the eight Genin all trembled.
Huaxia Special Service Bureau''s three-star General, isn''t he the director of the Special Service Bureau!?
"Destroy my Special Service Bureau? You really have some nerve."
Ye Tiance coldly walked into thepartment, sitting opposite Kameda Shibin on the sofa.
Just as his voice fell, the Special Service soldiers stepped forward uniformly, gun barrels directly against the masks of the eight ck-d Genin, as well as Shochu Sonichiro''s forehead, and Kameda Shibin''s forehead.
There was a sh of cruelty in Kameda Shibin''s eyes. He was extremely proud of being a Chunin from Japan, so how could he allow a gun to be pointed at his forehead?
But he was angry and did not dare to speak, let alone resist, because...
At the first nce he saw Ye Tiance, he felt an overwhelming pressure in the air.
This kind of pressure he had only experienced on "Lord Koku", which was a Jonin from Japan.
This means... Ye Tiance possesses Jonin level strength!
To face such a person, even ten of him wouldn''t be enough, so he ordered his subordinates to throw down their weapons and surrender.
Then, he spoke.
"Your Special Service Bureau really has some audacity, actually aiming guns at the heads of international friends for no reason, aren''t you afraid of being condemned by the internationalmunity for this vition?"
Kameda Shibin did not directly answer Ye Tiance, instead using the Special Service Bureau of wantonly threatening "international friends".
A cold smile appeared on Ye Tiance''s lips, "No reason? You broke into the Celestial Sea Forensic Bureau a few days ago, severely injuring the police officers on duty there, why didn''t you mention the vition then?"
Kameda Shibin''s face slightly changed, and he replied coldly, insisting, "Forensic Bureau? What are you saying, I don''t understand."
"Don''t understand?"
"Kill Liu Aimin; destroy the Liu Family; destroy the Celestial Sea Police Bureau; eradicate the vige behind Ye Huan; punch the Western Dark World, stomp Huaxia, ascend to the top of the world?"
"And destroying my Special Service Bureau, your ambitions are so grand, yet you don''t understand human speech?"
Ye Tiance looked full of ridicule.
Kameda Shibin''s expression was extremely embarrassed, his inner feelings being a turmoil as if ten thousand Divine Beasts trampled over.
Enjoying a beautiful future interrupted is one thing, but being interrupted by such violent behavior, with a gun aimed directly at his forehead.
Furthermore, just as he said he wanted to destroy the Special Service Bureau, the main person directly "came knocking on the door", does it have to be so coincidental?
"Coming knocking on the door" is good, but Kameda Shibin dared not ept it.
The Special Service Bureau, being the strongest, most elite violent institution of Huaxia, how could his team led by a Chunin destroy it?
Probably only the Divine Ninja led team, which is the most elite group under Japan''s Orochi, currently has the capability to destroy the Special Service Bureau!
But Dragon Gate is not to be trifled with, the Divine Ninja dares toe, Dragon Gate dares to kill!
So, Kameda Shibin was just bragging, getting carried away with blowing his horn, and in the absence of stopping, only then did he say he wanted to destroy the Special Service Bureau.
Being scolded for not understanding human speech left Kameda Shibin extremely aggrieved, but there was no way out, no matter how aggrieved he must hold it back!
Seeing him in this state, Ye Tiance looked contemptuous, "Onest question, you wanted to kill Ye Huan, do you know who he is?"
Kameda Shibin continued ying mute, without responding.
Ye Tiance spoke again, causing him to tremble all over!
"He is my son, Ye Tiance!"
"Check and disarm all of them, take them all away!"
"If anyone dares to resist, execute them on the spot!"
Resist? With a presence of Jonin level here, who dares to resist?
Special Service Bureau soldiers in pairs, respectively restraining the left and right arms of the Japanese Ninja, escorting them onto armored vehicles.
Before getting into the vehicle, Kameda Shibin nced at arge tree a hundred meters away from the bar, made a signal, and was then escorted onto the vehicle.
A few minutester, the armored vehicles roared away.
At this moment, the waiter behind the tree stared wide-eyed, looking shocked.
Having just dealt with Liu Dandan''s corpse, returning to the entrance of the bar and seeing hundreds of armed Specials, he was instantly weak-kneed, hurriedly hiding behind the tree to observe secretly.
Seeing the Special Service Bureau take Kameda Shibin''s group away, he was full of shock, quickly picked up his phone, searching his notes.
As Kameda Shibin''s most trusted informant, the waiter had been given an address and code by Kameda Shibin, the address being another base of Japan''s Orochi located in Celestial Sea, and it was a higher-level base.
The reason Kameda Shibin gave him this address was to prevent such incidents without anyone informing the higher-ups to rescue them.
After finding the address, the waiter quickly called a taxi, also hurriedly left.
Chapter 441 - 434: Birdsong
"Name."
"Ajimi Kiwa."
"Age."
"Jiawaka."
"Gender."
"Yami Ki."
"upation."
"Kaji Kaji."
"Nationality."
"Woof Woof Woof."
In the city of Celestial Sea, inside an interrogation room of the police station, Qin Guangming and Ye Tiance faced the iron-barred Laughing Kawakawa Ichiro, their faces darkened.
After escorting these ten Eastern ninjas to the police station, no matter how they interrogated, all they heard was meaningless "gibberish."
Initially, they interrogated the ten together; now, they separated them, conducting ten individual interrogations.
It was still useless. No matter what questions were asked, they responded, but unfortunately, it was all gibberish,pletely iprehensible.
"These are the ones who stormed into the Forensic Bureau and injured the on-duty officers, right?" Ye Huanzily asked, resting his head on his hands, looking casual.
He had just finished removing the strawberry marks on his neck, was about to lie down and sleep, when he received a call from Ye Tiance, learning that these Eastern ninjas were plotting to kill him, and about the Jimiw Vige incident.
It''s just a matter of taking twenty-four million; nning to kill him could be understandable, but why plot against Jimiw Vige?
Ye Huan thought for a moment and knew this was not simple, so he got up, went to the police station, and participated in the interrogation of Laughing Kawakawa Ichiro.
"Yes, it''s indeed them. The number and strength of their group are not far from my estimate."
"One Intermediate Chunin, one High-level Genin, eight Intermediate Genin."
"As for their intent to murder you and the matter with Jimiw Vige, I''ve already told you over the phone."
Ye Tiance was sitting on a bench in front of the interrogation table, taking a sip of hot tea after speaking.
At this moment.
"Jimi Jimi, Kawakawa #@%..."
In the iron cage, Laughing Kawakawa Ichiro kept waving his arms, seemingly expressing his indignation.
Ye Huan walked up to the iron bars and asked with a "sincere" face, "Bro, yournguage is obscure, which country is this?"
"Kaji Kagu Ji!" Laughing Kawakawa Ichiro snorted coldly.
Ye Huan immediately looked very "puzzled" and asked, "Didn''t I hear you speak Huaxian at the underground boxing arena? Howe now I can''t understand, and you''re speaking gibberish?"
"Kaji Gu..."
This time, before Laughing Kawakawa Ichiro could finish.
Ye Huan''s eyes lit up, his mouth curled up, interrupting him, "I know now, you''re speaking the tribalnguage of those native tribes in the African rainforest, right?"
Laughing Kawakawa Ichiro''s mouth curled up into a mocking smile, "Kaka Gu Mi%@..."
"So you''re saying, you really can''t understand Huaxian?" Ye Huan raised his eyebrow and asked.
"Kaji1@!@#..."
A stream of gibberish.
"Are you sure you can''t understand Huaxian?"
Ye Huan''s smile became more yful, his expression very intriguing, leaving Laughing Kawakawa Ichiro confused, so he simply stopped speaking, showing he didn''t understand.
Unexpectedly, Ye Huan suddenly burst intoughter, turning his head to look at Qin Guangming,ughing, "Haha, Uncle Qin, he really seems to not understand Huaxian, this makes things easier."
"Ah?" Qin Guangming looked bewildered.
"It''s good if they don''t understand, if they can''t understand Huaxian, we can frame him, and he wouldn''t know!"
"Anyway, all we need is confirmation that this group attacked the Forensic Bureau and severely injured the officers."
"Let''s frame him as the one who organized the attack on the Forensic Bureau and the others as aplices. We can directly proceed to the execution process, best to finish them off within today."
"He only speaks gibberish and doesn''t understand we''re plotting against him, executing him won''t be a problem."
"Once he''s executed, the case will be closed!"
Ye Huan said with a big smile.
Damn, this kid doesn''t follow the rules at all!
Laughing Kawakawa Ichiro''s face turned anxious, he wasn''t involved in the attack on the Forensic Bureau and didn''t want to be executed.
He was just about to speak.
"Xiao Ye, we have procedures in ce, we can''t execute suspects without evidence." Qin Guangming awkwardly smiled.
Laughing Kawakawa Ichiro breathed a long sigh of relief.
Indeed, this kid doesn''t y by the rules, but Huaxia police can''t deviate from the rules.
Execute him? Execute them?
Ridiculous, as long as they don''t confess, and Huaxia police have no evidence of their crimes, how could they be executed?
If they dare execute without evidence, Huaxia police would be condemned by the world!
In the car, Kameda Shibin secretly signaled to them that he had a waiter initiate a rescue n. They must hold on, not confess no matter what the police and the Special Service Bureau asked, because without evidence, the police and Special Service Bureau can''t convict them!
Huaxia police are unlikely to use torture, even if they did, once the rescue arrives, Huaxia police would face worldwide criticism.
So Kameda Shibin told them, no matter what the police asked, just speak random gibberish.
Once the waiter brought in the rescue, the rescue would contact the Eastern conste in Huaxia. The conste would surely find ways through public opinion or other methods to rescue them from the police.
So, as long as they spoke gibberish, even if the Special Service Bureau and police confirmed they stormed the Forensic Bureau, they''d have to release them without specific evidence.
Execute us? Howughable, Huaxian pigs!
Laughing Kawakawa Ichiro stared at Ye Huan, his mouth curling into a disdainful smile.
Once released, the n would proceed as usual, marking the end for this kid and the vige behind him!
Chapter 442 - 434 Bird Language_2
Ye Huan raised an eyebrow, "Really need evidence?"
"That''s right, we must have evidence," Qin Guangming replied.
Ye Huan nced at Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro and saw the proud and contemptuous curve on his lips.
Suddenly, Huan''s lips curled up with a meaningful smile.
Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro shuddered, and his lips returned to normal.
"Chirp chirp chirp."
"Kamoji."
"Kaji mi, jimei wu, kaka kawawa."
Suddenly... Ye Huan took out his phone while also speaking in birdnguage.
Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro was bewildered for several seconds, but still forced himself to respond, "Kaka wu, kaji kaji."
"Kawu kawu, k k."
"Ji wai ka! @..."
Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro started sweating bullets on his forehead.
What''s this kid up to, speaking birdnguage too?
"Kaka wawa."
"21@#%..."
"%%..."
In the next ten minutes, Ye Huan and Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro had a "friendly and cordial" conversation.
In fact, Ye Huan ended up "excitedly" stretching his hand through the iron bars to shake hands with Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro.
This scene left Ye Tiance and Qin Guangming utterly dumbfounded.
As for Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro, he was even more stupefied.
In the next second, Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro''s face changed drastically.
Ye Huan held a toothpick in his mouth and said with a smiling face:
"Uncle Qin, this kid has confessed."
"He said the group that attacked the Forensic Bureau was them."
"You can prepare to drag them out and execute them all in a bit."
Qin Guangming was taken aback, confused, "Confessed? When did he confess?"
"Just now, the ''evidence'' is this recording."
With that, Ye Huan yed the birdnguage dialogue recording on the phone and said with a smile, "Uncle Qin, this kid spoke in birdnguage that no one can understand. I guess he''s speaking the tribalnguage of those small tribes in the African primitive forest."
"Thisnguage is very rare, probably not a second person in Huaxia can understand it."
"So, I just pretended to understand and spoke back to him, and I recorded it."
"Anyway, no one in Huaxia can understand it, nor can anyone trante it. By then, I''ll just produce a trantion script saying he confessed and refused to repent for his crimes, and dared them to sentence him to execution!"
"For his offenses of attacking the Forensic Bureau and seriously injuring police officers, having him executed is not over the top."
"Just arrange to put the main me on him, divide some minor charges among the others, execute him ten times, once each for the others is enough."
Listening to this, Qin Guangming was bewildered, "Isn''t this bad?"
"Kaji kaji!" Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro cursed in birdnguage while pounding on the iron bars twice, expressing protest and indignation, his voice very loud.
Ye Huan looked impatient:
"What''s bad about it?"
"Anyway, he can''t understand Huaxianguage, he doesn''t know we''re framing him."
"Kaka ji, wqjen..."
Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro''s eyes filled with "grievance" tears as he repeatedly tried to interrupt Ye Huan with birdnguage, but Ye Huanpletely ignored him.
"Let''s go, let''s go, the interrogation is over. Uncle Qin, you directly send this recording to the superiors, I''ll handwrite a trantion draftter."
"Sentence all ten of these criminals to execution, best to carry it out tonight."
"This way, they won''t have anything to say, and Uncle Qin, you can close the case. Isn''t that to everyone''s satisfaction?"
Ye Huan said, pulling the confused Qin Guangming and Ye Tiance up and heading towards the door.
"I confess!"
"I confess!"
"I confess everything, don''t execute me!!!"
Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro clutched the iron bars, almost crying out loudly.
Upon hearing the cries, the trio halted their steps.
Qin Guangming and Ye Tiance''s eyes glinted.
Ye Huan gave them a look, signaling them to leave first.
Then, he closed the interrogation room door, returned to the bench in front of the interrogation table, sat down, curled his lips up yfully, and asked, "So, you can understand Huaxianguage?"
"I... I can understand." Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro replied, shrinking his neck, gritting his teeth.
"Name."
"Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro."
"Age."
"46."
"Nationality."
"Eastern Japan."
"..."
After a series of questions, Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro answered fluently.
Ye Huan raised an eyebrow, "If you had been this honest from the start, we wouldn''t have had so much trouble. Are you deliberately wasting our time?"
Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro awkwardlyughed twice, but in his heart, a thousand Divine Beasts were galloping.
Who knew you wouldn''t follow the usual ways!
Ye Huan lightly knocked on the table and asked, "Why attack the Forensic Bureau and severely injure police officers?"
After this question, Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro clutched the iron bars and urgently said, "Bro, don''t get it wrong, I didn''t... I didn''t attack the Forensic Bureau, they went that night, but I didn''t!"
"Did I ask if you went? Answer my question; I asked, what was the purpose of attacking the Forensic Bureau."
"The purpose is..." Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro hesitated for a while, gritted his teeth, and said, "I will tell you, but you must not let it be known that I''m the one who informed..."
"You can rest assured, just speak."
"Alright then!" Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro said with a solemn voice, "Their purpose of attacking the Forensic Bureau was to find and destroy the body that was all ck from B-max as reported in the news when Celestial Sea police cracked down on vice."
"Why do you want to find that body?"
"Because... the organization said that the body that died due to B-max should not be allowed to fall into the hands of others, especially the Huaxia authorities," Xiaochuan Sun Ichiro replied. "Not just in Huaxia, the organization will send people to find and destroy the body wherever there are reports of suspected B-max deaths."
"The organization you mentioned is Orochi, right? B-max is something your Orochi produces?" Ye Huan asked coldly.
Chapter 443 - 434 Bird Language_3
Saegawa Ichiro''s face changed color.
He really didn''t expect that this kid in front of him knew about the Japanese Orochi.
"I only know this much, I don''t know more specific things about B-max, my status in the organization isn''t high and I don''t have the authority to ess that information."
Ye Huan did not doubt Saegawa Ichiro''s words.
Just a senior Genin, even if he is a descendant of the Saegawa family, it is impossible for him to ess the deeper secrets of Orochi.
"Next question, why do you want to kill me and destroy the vige behind me?" Ye Huan asked further.
"Because... Lord Zhibin, that Chunin, learned from your mother-inw about you reviving Liu Aimin, whose life signs werepletely gone due to B-max."
"B-max has a one hundred percent fatality rate, yet you broke that probability with your medical skills."
"Lord Zhibin believes that you might be guided by a master, so he wanted to eliminate you and the vige behind you to clear obstacles for the Empire''s revival n."
Saegawa Ichiro spoke fluently.
After he finished speaking, he saw Ye Huan silent for a few minutes and couldn''t help but feel a bit panicked.
The things Saegawa Ichiro revealed truly took Ye Huan by surprise.
It can almost be confirmed that the infamous deadly poison in the Dark WorldB-max, has a very deep connection with the Japanese and Orochi, and might even be produced by them.
The Great Japanese Empire''s revival n...
And also, mother-inw?
Liu Dandan told Kameda Zhibin everything about the Liu Family?
Ye Huan''s gaze turned cold, and he questioned, "Are you talking about Liu Dandan? Where is she now?"
"She... she was killed by people sent by Lord Zhibin." Saegawa Ichiro shrunk his head, fearing Ye Huan''s anger as he finished speaking.
Liu Dandan''s death was indeed a surprise to Ye Huan, but only a surprise.
This woman, who was extremely snobbish and always liked to make trouble out of nothing, died and Ye Huan felt not a hint of pity.
"Where is the Orochi stronghold in the Celestial Sea located, which is also your superiors?"
"I... I really don''t know, only Lord Zhibin has the authority to contact superiors, I don''t have that power."
Seeing he didn''t seem to be lying, Ye Huan threw out thest question, "Can you be certain that everyone except you participated in the criminal activities against the Forensic Bureau?"
"I''m sure, I really didn''t participate, they all did, I... I''m afraid of dying!"
Saegawa Ichiro, flushed red, lowered his head after saying this.
The Japanese Orochi, simply put, is an alliance formed by the eight ninja families that control Japanese power.
Divided into three upper families and five lower families.
Saegawa Ichiro is a descendant of the Saegawa family, one of the lower five families, born more noble than ordinary Japanese. Coming to Huaxia''s Celestial Sea was just to gild himself, and it wouldn''t be long before he could return to Japan and be a grassroots leader of Orochi.
By then, luxury cars and beauties will abound, and a luxurious life awaits him, so he doesn''t want to lose his life in Huaxia.
Therefore, he''s very spineless!
...
After leaving the interrogation room where Saegawa Ichiro was detained, Ye Huan went to the interrogation room of the other eight ck-clothed Genin and made them confess their crimes one by one using the same method.
But when it came to Kameda Zhibin, the situation suddenly changed.
His will was very strong!
Very strong and unyielding!
Even though Ye Huan used means, he couldn''t extract a bit of intelligence from his mouth.
In the end, Kameda Zhibin directly bit down on the poison tooth hidden in his oral cavity,mitting suicide, and his body turned pitch ck.
Evidently, the toxin contained in the poison tooth was B-max.
But this B-max was extremely different from what Ye Huan had seen in the Dark World and on Liu Aimin before.
In just thirty seconds, Kameda Zhibin turnedpletely ck and died.
Another five secondster, his body exploded!
ck blood sttered all over the interrogation room, and it was no exaggeration to describe it as a bloodbath.
Even if he couldn''t extract anything from his mouth, it can be confirmed that B-max absolutely has a deep connection with Orochi and Japan.
It''s even very likely deeply linked to the so-called "Great Japanese Empire Revival n" mentioned by Saegawa Ichiro.
Otherwise, Kameda Zhibin wouldn''t have been determined to eradicate him and the vige behind him after knowing he saved Liu Aimin who was affected by B-max.
"Uncle Qin, they all confessed, find some time to execute them by firing squad, keep Saegawa Ichiro for now."
In the corridor outside the interrogation room, Ye Huan spoke after a long silence.
Qin Guangming pondered for several seconds, then nodded and said, "Just right, seven dayster is the date for the execution by firing squad for Bai Family''s Bai Yu and White Impermanence, and guys like Tiger Bro. Let these Japanese guys ''catch a ride.''"
"Hmm, that''s fine."
"Another point, spread the news of the execution by firing squad in seven days to the public."
"During the execution, the Special Service Bureau had better be fully armed and guard around the execution ground, there are more advanced presences behind these Japanese ninjas."
...
"Late-night news: The culprits who forcefully broke into Celestial Sea City''s Forensic Bureau and seriously injured several on-duty policemen have been identified."
"The culprits are a total of nine Japanese men, with conclusive criminal evidence and all have confessed, one of whommitted suicide by poisoning when the police were not paying attention."
"The remaining eight will be executed by firing squad at noon seven dayster, together with several other criminals, at Celestial Sea execution ground!"
Looking at this news on his phone, the old man with a mustache, Yamamoto Koku, had an extremely gloomy face.
"Crack!"
The phone was crushed into a pile of fragments and fell to the ground.
Chapter 444 - 435: Lilith, Princess of the Seven Kingdoms!
"Concert?"
Ye Huan left the police station, returned to S-01, and was about to sleep when he received a call from Su Qingqing.
"Yes, Lilith ising to the Capital City the day after tomorrow to host a grand concert. My sister worked really hard to get tickets for the front row, and she got three, just happened to have an extra one, so she contacted you."
On the other side of the phone, Su Qingqing blushed with a little humph.
But actually, it wasn''t "just happened" to have an extra one.
Ever since Su Qingqing came to the Capital City, she dreamt about Ye Huan every day. She couldn''t stop thinking about him day and night.
After finding out that Lilith wasing to Huaxia for a global tour concert, Ye Qiqing contacted several parties to obtain tickets for the front row, and Su Qingqing asked her to get one more ticket for the concert, hoping Ye Huan woulde to the Capital City, so she could see him.
But Ye Huan, upon hearing the name "Lilith," twitched at the corner of his mouth and said, "Is it possible not to go?"
"No way!"
"Do you know how much effort my sister put to get those tickets? Out there... people would scramble to buy them even for a billion, and you''re being offered them for free, and you''re not willing!?"
"The seats are Supreme VIP 5-7, three of the first fifteen front row seats!"
"I don''t care, anyway, if you don''te, I''m breaking up with you!"
Su Qingqing let out a really annoyed hmph before hanging up.
Staring at the now darkened phone screen, Ye Huan''s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
Breaking up? Isn''t this a trick that only elementary school students use?
Also, free? If Brother Huan wanted, forget about attending a concert in the front row, even having Lilith organize an exclusive concert for him, Brother Huan believes she''d dly agree!
Brother Huan''s trouble is precisely about this!
But... as long as Lilith doesn''t see him, there shouldn''t be a big problem.
After all, for a world-ss diva''s concert, the venue''s area is bound to berge, even the front row should have a considerable distance from the main stage.
Ye Huan heaved a long sigh and could only reply on WeChat: "I''ll go to the Capital City tomorrow night."
The other side quickly responded with an "OK" emoji.
Lilith entered the entertainment industry at twenty, and even before she became famous, she was acimed for her exquisite pretty face, heavenly voice, and performing skills as the "future queen" by many in the circle.
Seven years have passed, and the prophesies of the circle havee true.
Lilith has won numerous Oscars continuously for seven years, including Best Actress, Best Singer, Best Director.
Many of her well-known songs are heard on every street in every country; her movies never had a box office below ten billion US dors; the number of her followers on the famous social media tforms Youtobi and Facebokebined is astonishingly a billion, once acimed as the world most high number of fans for an artist, surpassing even Michael Jackson at his peak.
Truly a world-ss diva!
The dream girl of countless men!
But, if it were just this, Brother Huan wouldn''t have twitched his mouth so fiercely upon hearing her name.
The reason his mouth twitched is because Lilith is not only a world-ss diva, but her real identity is the sole daughter of the Divine King Zeus and the second Celestial God Hera in the Dark World.
About five years ago, Ye Huan coincidentally encountered her being assassinated during a tour concert. Upon sensing a hint of Divine King Zeus and Hera''s power within her, Brother Huan intervened and annihted the assassins, saving her from the brink of death.
Who would''ve thought, Lilith fell for Brother Huan right on the spot, bing a clingy adhesive, sticking to Brother Huan for two years, trying countless times to take Brother Huan down, hoping for a fait apli!
During his time in the Dark World, Ye Huan was not someone who kept to himself. Living in a ce filled with mountains of corpses and seas of blood, without a woman by his side, he might have long lost himself and be a genuine bloodthirsty "God of ughter."
Lilith is very beautiful, extremely beautiful!
If not for her other identity, Brother Huan would''ve certainly epted her offer!
But who is she? The moment Ye Huan saved her, he immediately asked why she possessed Zeus''s power and aura.
Lilith''s response was, "Because that old man is my dad."
The daughter of the Divine King...
If he impulsively took her, Zeus and Hera would surely chase him across thousands of miles.
So Ye Huan kept to himself when facing him.
But after two years of restraint, he still fell for her scheme and was taken by her!
On a day three years ago, Lilith handed Brother Huan a ss with the words, "Darling, have your medicine," and fed him a drink.
The drink was drugged!
What happened afterward is needless to say!
Lilith even called over her six sisters!
The next day, Zeus somehow discovered it and brought the Divine King Hall''s army to storm the hotel.
Back then, Ye Huan had not yet reached the level of God of ughter. He was just a small, unknown figure who had just stepped onto Celestial God Rankings.
The Divine King Hall''s siege? What an international joke!
He just ran!
It was from that day that he escaped Lilith''s clutches.
This is the origin of Brother Huan''s famous "ck history."
If he goes to the concert and that crazy woman Lilith sees him...
Ye Huan began to sweat profusely.
He decided he must disguise himself well the day after tomorrow, so that crazy woman won''t see him!
Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable!
...
The following day.
Tianyun International, CEO''s office.
"Tomorrow..." Liu Tianyun nibbled on a bun, looking somewhat embarrassed, reached into her bag with her left hand, "would youe with me..."
"I just need to ask for leave."
"Tomorrow I have to handle some business out of town."
Ye Huan interrupted her decisively, his tone indifferent.
No kidding, Brother Huan intended to keep a distance from Liu Tianyun and go back to the vige to get a divorce in a month, how could he apany her to do anything?
Doing anything is out of the question. That''s why Ye Huan didn''t listen and decisively refused.
"Can''t it be postponed a little?" Liu Tianyun seemed a bit disappointed.
"No can do."
Once Ye Huan said this, Liu Tianyun''s hand that was holding two tickets in her bag paused for a moment.
After finishing thest sip of soy milk, Ye Huan casually took the breakfast trash and left the CEO''s office.
What will I do then?
With a face full of helplessness, Liu Tianyun pulled out the two tickets from her bag.
"Lilith ConcertSupreme VIP, Seat 8."
"Lilith ConcertSupreme VIP, Seat 9."
She''s also a fan of Lilith, buttely, she''s been too busy to keep up with her activities.
Last night, while she was sulking about the hickey on Ye Huan''s neck, Lilu handed her these two tickets so she could go to the concert with Ye Huan, and that''s how she found out Lilith was touring in the Capital City.
She also wanted to attend the world-ss diva''s concert live, so she epted the tickets.
But she agonized over this quasi-"date" invitation to Ye Huan, losing almost a whole night''s sleep thinking about it.
Who knew Ye Huan would refuse so bluntly.
No choice.
Liu Tianyun took out her phone and made a call.
"Mom, he said he has something to do tomorrow and rejected me."
"What? That little brat, so many people want to attend Lilith''s concert and can''t, and he even rejected the front row!" On the other side, Lilu gritted her teeth.
Liu Tianyun chuckled wryly, not saying that Ye Huan refused without even listening.
She helplessly said, "Maybe he''s really busy."
"Busy with what!"
"If that little brat doesn''t appreciate this opportunity, then let''s go, just us mother and daughter!"
"We''ll head to the Capital City after you get off work today!"
Chapter 445 - 436: Concert
"Tomorrow? I''m going out of town tomorrow."
In the security office, Ye Huan sat on the sofa, holding Zhang Huimin''s slender waist, with an apologetic look on his face.
After leaving the CEO''s office, he took the elevator downstairs to the security office, where Zhang Huimin had been waiting for a while. The first thing she did upon seeing Ye Huan was to request a "date."
Going on a date with Zhang Huimin, Brother Huan naturally wouldn''t refuse, but... there''s no choice, he has to go to Capital City tomorrow!
"Can''t it be postponed?" Zhang Huimin looked at Ye Huan intently, her expression visibly a bit disappointed.
Postponed? He couldn''t exactly ask Lilith to reschedule the concert, could he?
Although Ye Huan believed that if he contacted Lilith, it wouldn''t be a problem to have her reschedule or even cancel the concert altogether.
But Brother Huan wouldn''t dare initiate contact with Lilith; that would cause very serious "consequences"!
He had no choice but to postpone the date Zhang Huimin proposed.
Come to think of it, this was supposed to be their most formal date, and now it''s postponed...
Brother Huan felt a bit guilty for a moment.
On top of that, postponing this date to see another woman at a concert filled Ye Huan with guilt and shame!
With an apologetic look, he said, "I''m sorry, can we reschedule the date for when I return?"
"Then... fine." Zhang Huimin sighed, putting back half of the two tickets she had taken out from her pocket.
A date can be rescheduled, but Lilith''s concert can''t be.
These two second-row tickets to Lilith''s concert were incredibly lucky acquisitions, won through a raffle on Lilith''s Weibo.
She had intended to go with Ye Huan, but he wasn''t avable.
"How about when I get back in a couple of days, we go on our date, alright?" Ye Huan stroked her face and said softly.
"Okay."
Zhang Huimin answered weakly, her mood obviously still very low.
The next second, when Ye Huan cupped her face, her cheeks suddenly blushed.
Their lips met.
Feeling the warmth of Ye Huan''s lips, knowing he was trying tofort her and make her feel better, Zhang Huimin felt sweetness in her heart, and her mood improved significantly.
But just at this moment.
"Click."
The office door opened.
Li Ying walked into the office and immediately covered her mouth lightly upon seeing the scene on the sofa.
Kissing in the office, what might happen next...
After a minute, she finally realized that Ye Huan and Zhang Huimin were both looking at her with tilted heads.
"Brother Ye, uh... I''m sorry, I... I''ll definitely knock next time!" Li Ying shouted, retreating with her eyes tightly shut, closing the office door behind her.
Ye Huan: "..."
Zhang Huimin: "..."
The two exchanged a nce.
"It''s all your fault!"
Zhang Huimin pounded Ye Huan''s chest in embarrassment and annoyance and then got up to leave.
Ye Huan was left speechless, feeling like a herd of Divine Beasts had trampled through his mind.
Just when he was about to take things further, someone had to walk in. Could it be more coincidental?
Outside the office, watching Zhang Huimin''s departing figure, Li Ying looked stunned.
What''s going on!
That was only a minute, and Manager Zhang already left!? So fast!
For a moment, Li Ying not only med herself but also felt a bit sympathetic.
Brother Ye''s condition must be really serious!
Sigh!
...
Zhang Huimin''s face was burning, filled with embarrassment and anger.
Being seen by Li Ying kissing Ye Huan in the office, who knows how she might have misunderstood that!
If she let her imagination run wild and kept thinking...
Sigh!
She would never be able to face her again!
"Sigh"
In the elevator, Zhang Huimin let out a long sigh and pressed the button for the sales department floor.
At this moment.
"Hey, Minister Zhang, wait up!"
Tang Yao rushed in, gasping for breath.
She looked a bit embarrassed and said, "I just wanted to catch the elevator; you can close the doors, Minister Zhang."
"Oh, okay."
Zhang Huimin nodded, pressing the close button while noticing out of the corner of her eye a faint scar on Tang Yao''s right cheek.
Seeing this scar, Zhang Huimin''s jealousypletely vanished.
Ye Huan was definitely helping Tang Yao with something, and in the office, he was also helping her deal with this scar.
However... Zhang Huimin knew very well what kind of man Ye Huan was.
Perfect, charming.
He''s helped Tang Yao so much; she might already, or in the future, develop feelings for Ye Huan!
Maybe... Tang Yao would be one of her future "sisters"!
She needs to foster good rtions with her sisters!
"Secretary Tang, are you free tomorrow?" Zhang Huimin blinked her big eyes twice, pulling out two shiny tickets from her pocket and said, "I want to invite you to Lilith''s concert..."
"Huh? Really?!"
Tang Yao''s eyes widened, looking incredulous.
"Of course, shall we go together tomorrow?" Zhang Huimin sweetly smiled and handed over a ticket.
"Let''s go together!" Tang Yao nearly jumped for joy as she took the ticket, "Minister Zhang, you''re so kind, I''ve tried so hard but couldn''t even get a ticket at the far edges. And you''ve got... these are Super VIP seats, right?"
Zhang Huimin smiled and nodded, "Yes, seats 7-8 in the second row. I just got lucky."
Tang Yao had been a devoted fan of the little-known Lilith for seven years, watching her progress step by step.
The chance to see her idol up close was beyond thrilling for her!
"Thank you so much!"
In her excitement, she hugged Zhang Huimin and kissed her cheek heavily, leaving Zhang Huimin blushing bright red.
Chapter 446 - 437: Capital City, Huang Zhiwen
In the evening, after Ye Huan dropped off Liu Tianyun at home, he drove a BMW Mini worth around a million out of the S-01 garage, heading for the Capital City.
On National Highway G-01, the BMW Mini sped along in the twilight glow.
"Hmm, I''m on the way, it''ll take about an hour and a half."
"Book a room for me? Sure, send me the address."
"Okay, I''ll hang up now."
Ye Huan hung up the phone and then received a location sent by Su Qingqing on WeChat. After ncing at it, he was about to turn off his phone screen.
At this moment, the "ding" of another WeChat notification sounded.
Looking closely, Ye Huan''s face turned dark.
"If you have any trouble in the Capital City, contact me."
Ye Tiance.
Damn, how does he know I''m going to the Capital City?
Ye Huan was very puzzled.
A momentter, a Hongqi car brushed past him.
Huan''s face instantly looked like a pot''s bottom.
So Ye Tiance was following behind!
...
Capital City, Huadu Hotel.
"Qingqing, isn''t this inappropriate? We''ve only known each other for a few days, and you''re taking me to a hotel?"
In the hotel lobby, a man in a custom-made Givenchy suit with a lecherous grin stood by the front desk, next to the beautiful woman paying for a room.
The woman had delicate and defined features, wearing a ck OL uniform, her ck hair styled into a bun on top of her head, her long white neck exposed to the air, her smooth white legs wrapped in sheer ck crystal stockings, and ck high heels enhancing her tall and slender figure, her curves presenting a fluid S-shape.
Exquisite!
The woman attracted the attention of all the male wolves in the lobby, those pretending to be on the phone but actually sizing up Su Qingqing. Their drooling was barely noticeable.
After paying and taking the room card, Su Qingqing gave the lecherous suit man nothing but a cold nce.
The suit man was stunned and awkwardly said, "Qingqing, I don''t mean anything else, it''s just so sudden. You didn''t give me a good face before, and now you''re bringing me to a hotel; it''s quite abrupt!"
Saying this, he curved his lips in a lecherous smile, "But since you have this intention, I won''t back down, let''s head up."
"Huang Zhiwen, are you daydreaming,ing to a hotel with you? You should look in the mirror and see what you look like!"
Su Qingqing was furious, ring at him before kicking out directly!
A crotch kick!
"Ah!!!"
Caught off guard, Huang Zhiwen clutched his crotch and fell to the ground, rolling and screaming like a pig being ughtered.
This scene immediately made those staring at Su Qingqing retract their gazes, and they couldn''t help but cover their own crotches.
This was too brutal!
Huang Zhiwen was utterly baffled.
You''ve brought me to a hotel, and you still kick so hard?
If you cripple me, won''t you be the one losing out once we get to the room!
At the moment, Huang Zhiwen was dumbfounded.
"Almost there?"
"Yeah, okay, the room is ready."
"Want to grab some food? No? Then I''ll order takeout, okay, you hurry up, I''m waiting at the hotel entrance."
Su Qingqing''s voice was sweet and coquettish as she spoke on the phone, her face blooming with a smile.
Hearing these words, Huang Zhiwen was furious!
So Su Qingqing wasn''t here with him.
She had booked a room, waiting for another man toe find her!
And her voice could be so sweet and coquettish?
When talking to him, she sounded like a lioness!?
That''s too biased!
"Su Qingqing, what do you mean!?"
"Bringing another man to the hotel is one thing, but booking a room and waiting for him, and you pay for it? Who does that!"
"Moron!"
The more Huang Zhiwen thought, the angrier he got, clutching his crotch as he stood up, he chased after her, yelling at Su Qingqing outside the hotel.
A sharp re met his eyes, and Huang Zhiwen instantly went silent.
Who is Su Qingqing?
The Secretary to the current Chairman of Li CorporationYe Qiqing, matchless in power, someone that Huang Zhiwen couldn''t afford to offend.
Being stared at coldly by Su Qingqing, Huang Zhiwen couldn''t help but lower his head, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.
Insulting the Secretary of Ye Qiqing as a moron, if Su Qingqingined to Ye Qiqing, no one could save his neck.
Fortunately he had ayer of life-saving identity.
"Considering you''re the wife of my elder brother, I''ll let it go this once."
"But don''t let me see you again."
"Get lost!"
Su Qingqing''s voice was chillingly cold, her eyes aze with anger.
Scolded like that by a mere woman, as the eldest son of the Huang Family, a second-tier family in the Capital City, Huang Zhiwen felt utterly humiliated.
But there''s nothing he could do; the Secretary of the Chairman of Li Corporation, was not someone he or his family could afford to offend.
The task his father, Huang Shng, had given him was to pursue Su Qingqing, or at least establish a good rtionship.
If Huang Shng knew he called Su Qingqing a "moron," he would definitely break his leg.
Huang Zhiwen gritted his teeth and ran off, tail between his legs.
But he didn''t run far; he hid behind a big tree not far away, intending to see what kind of man could gain the favor of the Secretary of Li Corporation''s Chairman and make her wait at the hotel for him!
A quarter-hourter, his anger surged sky-high!
A handsome guy got out of a BMW Mini, and Su Qingqing visibly delighted upon seeing him, sweetly smiled, and led him into the hotel.
Wow!
A BMW Mini, barely worth over a million, just equivalent to his monthly allowance!
A man driving such a car couldn''t be a top-notch rich heir, or mega tycoon, could he?
He''s simply handsome, a pretty boy!
This pretty boy, aside from being handsome, how could he possiblypare to him, Huang Zhiwen?
Wealth? Power? Background? Strength?
Having just a pretty face, what kind of skill is that!
Su Qingqing is truly short-sighted, actually liking this pretty boy, and even arriving at the hotel early to wait for him!
Huang Zhiwen was fuming.
Isn''t it just being handsome? In terms of inner qualities and character, this pretty boy can''t evenpare to me!
Thinking this, Huang Zhiwen''s face was full of envy.
Clearly, he wanted to be a pretty boy too, but...
His abilities don''t allow it!
His genes don''t allow it!
Huang Zhiwen was unwilling, he couldn''t bear losing to a pretty boy!
He wanted to "win back" Su Qingqing!
Since he couldn''t match in looks, he must showcase qualities and capabilities that far surpass this pretty boy to make Su Qingqing realize not only is he not worse than the pretty boy, he''s even better!
So why not take this opportunity to show his worth?
Huang Zhiwen devised a scheme, a sly smile curling at the corners of his lips.
Not only would he dissipate her anger and disgust for him, but he could also capture her heart!
He pulled out his phone.
"Li Meng, find five tough guys, be at Huadu Hotel tomorrow morning, and help me put on a show."
"..."
After scheming, Huang Zhiwen hung up the phone with a sly grin.
Li Meng was a small gangster leader in the Capital City, someone he was familiar with, often helping him with shady dealings.
His n was to have Li Meng find five tough guys to wait at the entrance of Huadu Hotel in the morning, harass Su Qingqing verbally and physically when she came out.
Then, these five tough guys would express their disdain for the handsome pretty boy, i.e., Ye Huan, urging him to leave, dering to take his woman.
Simultaneously, the five tough guys would roll up their sleeves, ring at Ye Huan.
If Ye Huan was oblivious and didn''t leave, the tough guys would step in, beating him but not too hard, just enough to scare him and make him run.
The goal was to frighten Ye Huan into fleeing, leaving Su Qingqing behind.
So Su Qingqing would realize this pretty boy had nothing but a good face, but was a coward who''d abandon her in danger, ultimately losing hope in him.
With that, Li Meng and the others would start to make moves on her, throwing her into despair.
Thenes the real show.
Huang Zhiwen would give a loud roar.
Subduing Li Meng and the thugs, taking control of the situation!
Saving Su Qingqing from despair, overturning her distaste for Huang Zhiwen, and perhaps making her fall in love with him, apologizing profusely, even taking him back to the hotel for a deeper apology!
Haha, brilliant!
Chapter 447 - 438: Brother Huan Who Keeps Himself Pure
Floral Hotel, Room 704, luxury suite.
"You''re staying here too?" Walking into the room, Ye Huan couldn''t help but frown.
"The hotel rates in the Capital City are really expensive, and I just got here with hardly any money. Of course, I need to save where I can. Anyway, it''s not the first time we''ve stayed together, no big deal."
Su Qingqing hummed a tune and plopped down on the big bed in the center of the suite.
On the surface, she was acting casual, but inside, she was blushing like crazy.
She did it on purpose.
Hoping to seize this opportunity to finally win over Ye Huan.
Ye Huan looked quite unamused, but he didn''t dwell on the matter.
Indeed, it wasn''t the first time they''ve shared a ce, no need to be so uptight.
He sat on the sofa not far from the bed, nced at Su Qingqing, and asked, "You seem a bit upset?"
"Ugh, don''t even mention it, I''ve been bugged by a really annoying person." Su Qingqing looked frustrated.
Upon arriving in the Capital City and joining Li Corporation as Ye Qiqing''s secretary, she had already started looking for her brother, Su Zhiqiang.
Soon after finding him, Su Zhiqiang married Miss Huang Min, the second daughter of the Huang Family. Then, Huang Min''s brother, the head of the Huang Family, Huang Zhiwen, started sticking to her like glue, and she couldn''t shake him off!
He just called her a "nutjob," and Su Qingqing couldn''t be more upset.
If it weren''t for the "sister-inw" status, she definitely wouldn''t let Huang Zhiwen off so easily after being insulted like that.
"Need my help?" Ye Huan asked.
"No need." Su Qingqing shook her head and then asked, "How''s everything with youtely?"
"Not bad, how about you?"
"I''ve been great," Su Qingqing said proudly, "Before boarding the ne, I ran into a little sister who shares a simr plight. Let me tell you, my sister..."
At this point, she teased, "Never mind, I won''t tell you now. I''ll introduce you tomorrow. But I can tell you this: her background is really powerful, so don''t be shocked. I''m her secretary now, and she''s the chairman of the Li... Corporation!"
Su Qingqing thought mentioning Li Corporation might intimidate Ye Huan, so she just referred to it as ''thepany.''
Ye Huan was also curious about the mysterious "sister" Su Qingqing met by chance.
But he didn''t press the issue, instead he asked, "How''s your brother?"
Su Qingqingughed, "He''s doing well, he married Huang Min, the second daughter of the Huang Family, and works at the Huang residence."
Ye Huan nodded.
"..."
After this exchange, neither of them knew what to say, plunging into silence.
Just looking at each other.
Su Qingqing was bashful.
Ye Huan felt awkward.
Finally, Su Qingqing broke the silence proactively.
She ordered two takeout meals.
After eating, Su Qingqing went to the bathroom to freshen up, ready to try her luck with Ye Huan.
Unfortunately, Gentleman Huan didn''t give her any chances!
When Su Qingqing walked out of the bathroom, she found Ye Huan already asleep on the sofa.
She was utterly embarrassed and annoyed.
"Darn, wasting such a great opportunity!"
...
The next day, under the bright sun, the two woke up one after the other.
While having breakfast at the hotel buffet downstairs, that annoying pest showed up again.
"I told you, I don''t want to see you!"
"Get out of my sight, or don''t me me for being rude!"
The hotel restaurant wasn''trge, only about a dozen tables, and when Su Qingqing saw Huang Zhiwen sit down at a table next to her and Ye Huan, she immediately shouted angrily.
What''s up with this woman? Did she take her mad pills this morning?
Huang Zhiwen cursed internally before helplessly spreading his hands and saying, "Qingqing, what do you take me for? A clinger?"
"Aren''t you?"
Chapter 448 - 439: Bring Some Money to Spend
Su Qingqing''s retort nearly made Huang Zhiwen fall to the ground head first.
Do I really leave such a bad impression on you?
But never mind, I''ll change your mind soon!
Not only change your mind, I''ll also show you how cowardly this pretty boy you like truly is!
Huang Zhiwen took a deep breath and said coldly, "Qingqing, your prejudice against me is too deep. You''ve alreadypletely ''broken up'' with mest night. Do you think I would still cling to you? I''m at least the eldest son of the Huang Family, I wouldn''t do anything to lower myself like that. I''m here with my new girlfriend for a meal, I never meant to bother you."
Su Qingqing stared closely and finally noticed a seductive woman beside Huang Zhiwen.
"Beauty, don''t casually nder my Zhiwen. Do you know who he is? The eldest son of the Huang Family! The line of women wanting to be with him can stretch from the north to south of the city!" The seductive woman crossed her arms and sneered, "You''re too blind to appreciate a treasure, leaving Zhiwen for a pretty boy. You''ll definitely regret it one day."
"What nonsense are you spouting, who''s clinging to him! And who are you calling a pretty boy?" Su Qingqing''s anger surged, and she mmed the table, standing up abruptly.
"Qingqing, calm down, calm down, don''t get angry. My girlfriend just speaks whateveres to her mind, no harm intended!" Huang Zhiwen made a gesture for peace, looking earnest, yet there was a trace of smugness at the corner of his mouth.
By saying she''s blunt, he meant that the seductive woman wasn''t wrong in calling Ye Huan a pretty boy.
It''s even equivalent to him "admitting" that Su Qingqing used to cling to him.
Afterwards, he pulled the seductive woman to sit down and eat, no longer looking at Su Qingqing and Ye Huan.
Su Qingqing''s eyes were wide with anger, looking like she wished to y Huang Zhiwen alive.
After sitting down, she hurriedly said, "Ye Huan, don''t misunderstand, there''s nothing between me and him..."
"Let''s eat." Ye Huan looked indifferent. Of course, he wouldn''t think that Su Qingqing had anything to do with that Huang Zhiwen.
The little tricks in their words couldn''t escape his notice.
Huang Zhiwen saying Su Qingqingpletely "broke up" with himst night, and the seductive woman''s "clinging to him," were indirectly sending a message to Brother Huan.
That is, the message that Su Qingqing once "had something" with him, Huang Zhiwen.
As for Huang Zhiwen boasting his identity as the "eldest son of the Huang Family," just by looking at Brother Huan with contemptuous eyes, it''s easy to infer that he was just unting his status, wanting to make Brother Huan, this "lover kept man," feel ashamed of himself.
Yes, Huang Zhiwen thought it over for the whole night and finally figured out why Su Qingqing would be involved with Ye Huan.
Support!
Su Qingqing is only 25, still at an age where a man''s sweet talk can steal her heart. Surely this pretty boy used his handsome face and flowery promises to deceive her heart, making her support him!
How else could it be exined?
Who is Su Qingqing?
She''s the secretary to the chairman of the Li Corporation, which means she can influence the chairman''s decisions and mobilize funds in the billions at will!
And the pretty boy?
His ride is a low-end, barely qualified BMW Mini!
Most likely this car was even bought for him by Su Qingqing!
Their statuses don''t match at all, how could they be a normal couple? This pretty boy must have used his good looks to make Su Qingqing support him!
Thinking of himself chasing Su Qingqing for more than a month with no progress, while this pretty boy just relies on his handsome face and flowery words to make Su Qingqing support him...
Huang Zhiwen was on the verge of exploding with jealousy, casting a sidelong nce at Ye Huan, a sh of fierceness in his eyes.
Kid, you''ll regret thister!
"You really shouldn''t misunderstand, there''s truly nothing between me and him!" Su Qingqing continued exining to Ye Huan.
Ye Huan smiled, "I know."
Su Qingqing: ""
She was still afraid Ye Huan would misunderstand, but this was public, so it was hard to exin clearly.
She blinked her big eyes and said, "Do you want toe to my office?"
"Alright, I''m free during the day anyway." Ye Huan agreed readily.
"Then let''s go, this ce is too unlucky!" Su Qingqing cursed with a hint of implication, then got up and left with Ye Huan.
Huang Zhiwen instantly exploded with anger.
Infuriating!
I''m just a bit uglier than this pretty boy, does the gap have to be so wide in how we''re treated?
"There''s nothing more for you to do here, let''s go." After Su Qingqing and Ye Huan left, Huang Zhiwen got up, tossed a wad of cash on the table, and then left.
The seductive woman was someone he had hastily pulled to put on a show on the roadside, her role was to use the words he instructed to rile up Su Qingqing and Ye Huan. But who knew this Ye Huan wouldn''t get angry at all!
Following Su Qingqing and Ye Huan out to the parking lot, Huang Zhiwen''s face turned anxious.
Where are the people Li Meng called? Why aren''t they here yet!?
"Hey, wait up!" Huang Zhiwen, having no other choice, called out to the two about to get in the car in the parking lot.
"What do you want now?" Su Qingqing turned her head back, ring at Huang Zhiwen with eyes as cold as ice, making him shiver.
"I I"
"Nothing!"
"I just hope you don''t entrust your life to a pretty boy with no substance!"
Huang Zhiwen mustered up the courage to mock Ye Huan with a slight smirk.
The people were here!
Before Su Qingqing could erupt in anger
Five gaunt, ragged youths approached, each holding a long red stick in their left hand and an iron bowl in their right.
They looked shabby, but the fierce glint in their eyes showed they were tough guys!
Their eyes roved over inly dressed Ye Huan, Su Qingqing in her office uniform, and Huang Zhiwen dressed in a sharp suit.
Ultimately settling on
Huang Zhiwen.
"Brother, spare some change." One-Eyed Dragon, the leader among the five, shook the iron bowl in front of Huang Zhiwen.
There were a few coins in the bowl, nging as they were shaken.
Huang Zhiwen was instantly dumbfounded.
He had instructed Li Meng to find trouble for the most handsome person there.
Convinced he was much uglier than the pretty boy Ye Huan, how did these tough guys end up singling him out?
And aren''t they supposed to harass Su Qingqing with words first? Why the sudden demand for money?
Was it that Li Meng didn''tmunicate clearly, or did these tough guys misunderstand?
The one-eyed beggar was evidently the leader among the five, and Huang Zhiwen desperately blinked at him and gestured at Ye Huan, suggesting he had found the wrong person.
"Why aren''t you talking, are you--damn it--deaf?" The one-eyed beggar cursed and jiggled the iron bowl a few more times, "You''re the one wearing a suit, so you must be the richest. Hurry up and pay!"
Huang Zhiwen felt utterly embarrassed, cursing Li Meng in his heart. What kind of fool couldn''t make it clear to these tough guys?
What they were doing waspletely different from what he instructed them to do!
What the heck is happening!
At this moment, Ye Huan spoke out.
"Big brother, this guy''s a young master from a big family, rolling in wealth. Asking him for money is the right call. My friend and I will be on our way now." Ye Huan said lightly.
The one-eyed beggar nced at him but said nothing, which implied agreement.
They weren''t greedy; they were satisfied with getting money from this suit-wearing guy.
Huang Zhiwen internally cursed fervently.
His original n was for Ye Huan to leave Su Qingqing behind and flee alone with his tail between his legs.
Then he would step in, settle the matter in one stroke, and win Su Qingqing over.
If she followed Ye Huan in fleeing, what good was his n anymore?
Huang Zhiwen blinked even faster, trying to signal to the one-eyed beggar to stop Ye Huan and Su Qingqing.
But things didn''t go as he wished
"You--son of a--, this guy looks like he doesn''t want to pay."
"Let''s beat him together!"
The one-eyed beggar cursed and swung his fist toward Huang Zhiwen.
What the hell, what kind of people did Li Meng bring over, why weren''t they taking orders!?
Wait
Could it be that they skipped the preliminary steps and only saw his mention of settling everything in one stroke?
Quite likely!
What the hell, that Li Meng guy, couldn''t even pass on a simple message clearly!
Guess it''s time to show off my skills ahead of schedule!
Chapter 449 - 440 Stop hitting, ouch...
After Huang Wenzhi shouted angrily, he unleashed a flying kick!
The move was incredibly cool!
He wanted Su Qingqing to see thatpared to this pretty boy, he was the real man!
But what Huang Wenzhi never expected was that after the one-eyed beggar was kicked back a few steps, he became furious and directly pulled out the brick tucked in his waistband.
"Bang!"
After a dull sound.
Huang Wenzhi immediately clutched his crotch, his body bent like a "bow," his eyes wide open.
The next second...
"Ah!!!!!!!"
Huang Wenzhi let out an extremely piercing scream, as if his parents had died, rolling on the ground constantly, he felt like his future lineage was doomed.
"Still dare to strike first, you''re really tired of living, beat him to death!"
The one-eyed beggar cursed, threw away the brick, and with four little brothers took up sticks and surrounded Huang Wenzhi for a wild beating.
While Huang Wenzhi was howling in pain, he hated Li Meng to the core.
What the hell did that guy do, asked him to hire tough guys, not idiots!
Why aren''t these idiots hitting Ye Huan, but instead beating me!
"I am Huang Wenzhi, I hired you to beat that pretty..."
"Stop beating!"
"Ouch!"
Huang Wenzhi tried to stop the one-eyed beggar and his crew, but got beaten until he screamed like a ghost cry.
Meanwhile, beside the BMW Mini, Ye Huan didn''t take Su Qingqing and leave.
Leave?
What a joke, such a good show, it would be a waste not to watch.
"Ye Huan, isn''t he going to be in trouble being beaten like that?" Su Qingqing asked, somewhat panicked.
"He shouldn''t die," Ye Huan replied with a smile.
Shouldn''t die, does that mean there''s still a possibility of danger?
"You all calm down, stop fighting!" Su Qingqing urgently urged, after all, Huang Wenzhi was her sister-inw''s big brother, if he died in front of her, it would be quite hard to justify.
But how could the one-eyed beggar listen to her?
They were like a tough guy beating his wife, the more they hit, the more excited they got!
The scene was once extremely bloody, scaring passersby from even daring to approach.
"Ring ring ring."
Suddenly, the phone rang.
"Ah? Why is it now?"
"Okay, I''ll be right there, please ask him to wait a moment!"
Su Qingqing stomped her feet anxiously, hung up the phone and looked at Ye Huan, apologetic, "An important client has arrived, I need to meet with them. I''ll send you thepany address on WeChat, can you wait for me there for a while?"
"Okay, do you want me to give you a ride?" Ye Huan nodded, he didn''t mind.
"I''ll take a cab over, also, if he doesn''t dieter, help him call an ambnce."
Su Qingqing casually said, then jogged to the street to hail a taxi, and left.
As for Ye Huan...
He wasn''t some living Buddha, Huang Wenzhi obviously had hostility towards him, he had nothing better to do and wait here to call an ambnce for Huang Wenzhi?
If he really did that, when Brother Huan is cremated decadester, there would definitely be a string of relics left.
"Vroom!"
The BMW Mini roared away.
The beatingsted for five or six minutes before the one-eyed beggars stopped, and when they left, they still dropped a curse: "Let''s see if you''ll still blink your eyes, or act like a poser in the future!"
"Ouch... I''m in so much pain!"
Huang Wenzhi''s face was swollen beyond recognition, his head was bleeding in several ces, his body was bruised and battered, looking extremely wretched, and his wallet was stolen.
He felt like dying, not only did he fail to expose Ye Huan''s "true colors" and let Su Qingqing dislike him, and settle the matter with a decisive fight to win Su Qingqing''s heart, but instead, he got beaten mercilessly by these beggars in front of Su Qingqing.
So humiliating!
It''s all Li Meng''s fault, that bastard, what idiots did he bring here!
Huang Wenzhi pulled out his phone and angrily began dialing.
At this moment, five formidable and ferocious men arrived on the scene.
"Boss, we came a bitte, is it okay?" a little brother asked.
"Just ten minutes or so, it should be fine," the strongest of them, the boss, said casually waving his hand.
When the five saw the wretched appearance of Huang Wenzhi, with a face swollen beyond recognition, they looked at each other and nodded knowingly.
Being handsome makes you easy to get beaten.
Though they couldn''t clearly see the exact look of this kid''s face before it was swollen.
But this kid probably was too handsome and got beaten up badly by some other big brother who didn''t like it.
"Boss, Meng Brother asked us to harass the beauty next to the pretty boy, where''s the beauty?"
"And where''s Young Master Wenzhi? He''s not here, weren''t we supposed to act and lose to him?"
"No idea." The boss was also dumbfounded.
Logically, there should be at least three people present.
The trampled pretty boy.
The poser Huang Wenzhi.
The trophy beauty.
Howe there''s only one already trampled pretty boy here?
"Damn!"
"Did you guys eat poop, why are you sote!"
Upon hearing the conversation of the five strong men, how could Huang Wenzhi not realize that these were the tough guys Li Meng had actually hired?
Turns out those beggars weren''t from their side, it was his own people who camete!
Huang Wenzhi was furious, he stood up and directly pointed at their noses, cursing them wildly.
The faces of the five strong men immediately darkened.
They went to the club for funst night, woke up a bitte, they were definitely at fault for causing this.
But if anyone should curse them, it should be Young Master Wenzhi, who was this "handsome guy" who''d already been stomped by other big brothers, to curse them?
They''d never suffered the indignity of being pointed at and cursed by a pretty boy like this while running in these circles!
Instantly furious, they didn''t care what mission they were here for.
"Beat him to death!"
The boss kicked out a blow.
The five strong men surrounded Huang Wenzhi.
Another wild beating!
Five minutester, the strong men left.
They didn''t beat people for nothing, wanting to capture some spoils.
Not finding a wallet in Huang Wenzhi''s pockets, they stripped him of his custom Givenchy suit.
With only a floral-pattern big pair of shorts covering him, Huang Wenzhi strenuously moved his body a bit, picked up the phone that had fallen to the ground, and made a call to Li Meng.
In just a few seconds, the call was connected.
He was raging.
"Li Meng, fuck you!!!!!!"
Chapter 450 - 441: Li Corporation!
Huang Zhiwen loathed Li Meng to the core for bringing over such useless people who not only failed to beat up Ye Huan but instead gave him a vicious beating.
After a burst of furious roaring, Huang Zhiwen hung up the phone.
He rummaged through his contacts and found another phone number to dial.
"Old Three, do me a favor!"
"A pretty boy ising to yourpany soon, stop him for me!"
"Best if the gatekeepers stop him, let him make a fool of himself, listen to me..."
After finishing his rant, Huang Zhiwen hung up the phone with a malicious gleam in his eyes.
If it weren''t for the rivalry with Ye Huan over a woman, would he have endured these two beatings? He had to regain his face!
Huang Zhiwen couldn''t swallow his anger.
During the beating, he overheard the conversation between Su Qingqing and Ye Huan nearby.
Su Qingqing was going to discuss business, and that pretty boy Ye Huan was heading to Li Corporation''s headquarters on his own.
His third brother, Huang Zhiqi, happened to be the logistics manager at Li Corporation, overseeing security, cleaning, gatekeeping, and many other departments.
With him there, Ye Huan absolutely wouldn''t even get past Li Corporation''s gates, making him embarrassed and awkward when stopped by the gatekeepers!
Distant water can''t put out a nearby fire, and even if Su Qingqing was anxious, she couldn''t rush back in time.
As for offending Su Qingqing because of Ye Huan''s close rtionship with her?
Huang Zhiwen couldn''t care less, he was in a rage, and no matter how close Ye Huan and Su Qingqing were, he would not let it slide, determined to regain his dignity through Ye Huan!
Offended? So be it, he would just plead with his brother-inw Su Zhiqiang, and even if his rtionship with Su Qingqing didn''t improve, it wouldn''t be too terrible either.
"Hey, wait, wait for me!"
Huang Zhiwen waved his phone and ran down the street chasing a taxi.
He was anxious to go to Li Corporation to watch Ye Huan embarrass himself, trample Ye Huan underfoot, but no taxi stopped despite his attempts.
In a hurry, he waved and chased after a taxi.
Not only did the taxi not stop, but it ran even faster.
Almost scared the driver to death.
With his face so swollen, was it a human or a ghost? And wearing only a pair of big shorts?
Which mental institution did he escape from!
...
Li Corporation, Chairman''s Office.
Ye Qiqing was handling business documents when she received a call from Su Qingqing.
"Sis?"
"Is your sweethearting to thepanyter? Why don''t you take a day off, don''t work, and apany him?"
"No need? Alright, I''ll go down to meet himter, just give him my phone number."
After hanging up, Ye Qiqing was curious about who Su Qingqing''s sweetheart could be, while her expression turned quiteplicated.
She and Su Qingqing shared a simr plight, both having fallen in love with already married men. Although Su Qingqing couldn''t be with her heartthrob, they managed to maintain a close friendship!
What about her, Ye Qiqing?
Sigh, she didn''t even have her heartthrob''s phone number and hadn''t contacted him since leaving Celestial Sea.
Recalling that rainy night when a group of thugs tried to assassinate her, Ye Huan heroically shielded her, saving her life...
If only she could attend a concert with him...
Ye Qiqing was full of anticipation but also regret.
Unable to even contact Brother Ye, how could she talk about attending a concert with him, or doing something akin to a date?
"Knock, knock, knock."
At this moment, there were three knocks on the door.
With Su Qingqing absent, a junior secretary from the secretarial department came in.
"Chairman, there''s a meeting in the logistics department that requires your attention," the junior secretary respectfully said.
"How long will it take?"
The junior secretary nced at the document and replied respectfully, "Half an hour should suffice."
Half an hour? That shouldn''t be a problem.
"Let''s go." Ye Qiqing tied up her waterfall-like ck hair with aposed expression and left the office with the junior secretary.
As for her phone, it remained on the desk charging.
...
Li Corporation epasses a range of high-tech research and manufacturing departments, including military, semiconductors, cutting-edge technology, aerospace, and more, with an estimated market value of around ten trillion US dors, a genuine supercarrier.
In the Capital City, where real estate prices were exorbitant and every inch ofnd was precious, Li Industrial Park spanned 12,000 acres,parable to two Tsinghua Universities!
Ye Huan drove to the very center of the park, before the skyscraper that stretched beyond sight, touching the clouds, and his mouth twitched with a full head of ck lines.
Su Qingqing was actually the secretary to the chairman of Li Corporation!?
Who was the current chairman of Li Corporation? The daughter of Li Luo and Ye Tiance, which meant his sister, Ye Qiqing!
Gosh, could it be this coincidental?
Could Su Qingqing''s "sister" actually be Ye Qiqing?
Also, recalling Ye Qiqing publicly proposing to him at that business banquet...
Ye Huan''s face grew darker, being proposed to by his own sister, what was that about?
But there was no way around it, what was meant toe woulde.
Ye Huan sighed, parked the car, and entered the ultra-luxuriouspany lobby through the automatic sliding doors.
The lobby floor wasid with fine marble, and the snow-white walls were smooth and eye-catching.
The lobby was vast, with the right-side conversation area resembling arge caf, where men and women in suits smiled as they engaged in work conversations with poise.
The spaciouspany lobby amodated dozens of people chatting, but conversations were soft and calm, not at all noisy.
"Hello sir, may I help you with something?"
Seeing that Ye Huan wasn''t wearing a work badge, the receptionist at the desk near the sensor doors stood up and politely called out to him.
"Oh, Su Qingqing asked me to wait for her in her office, could you tell me which floor her office is on?" Fortunately, since Su Qingqing hadn''t mentioned the floor, Ye Huan decided to ask the receptionist.
"Su Qingqing?" The receptionist paused for a moment.
The name sounded so familiar.
"It''s Secretary Su!" another receptionist seated on the side of the lobby eximed.
Secretary Su?
Right, wasn''t Su Qingqing the chairman''s secretary!?
The receptionist''s eyes widened.
Li Corporation was a vast enterprise with tens of thousands of employees, and for receptionists like them, department heads were like emperors and hard to meet, let alone the Jade Emperor-like chairman and the chairman''s secretary.
"Sir, may I have your name, and do you have an appointment?" The receptionist''s tone became noticeably more respectful.
Being connected to the chairman''s secretary, Ye Huan''s status was surely remarkable as well.
"My name is Ye Huan, and as for the appointment... it should count as an appointment, right?" Ye Huan wasn''t entirely sure but answered anyway.
"Alright, please wait a moment."
The receptionist bowed respectfully, then jogged to the reception desk, grabbed a notebook, and jogged back, moistened her fingers slightly, and began flipping through it.
After checking several times, her expression changed slightly.
"Sir, we couldn''t find your appointment. Could there be a mistake?" the receptionist asked with a frown.
"Oh, I''ll make a call."
Ye Huan said, then took out his phone and started dialing.
Thirty secondster.
"The number you have dialed is currently unavable, please try againter, sorry..."
Chapter 451 - 442: I Am the Elder Brother of Your Chairman
Ye Huan''s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
On the way to Li Corporation, Su Qingqing had given him an address and a phone number, saying that if he called this number, her sister woulde down to greet him.
But the phone seemed useless, couldn''t get through...
"Sir, may I ask..." The beautiful receptionist blinked twice.
"Oh, hold on, I''ll try again." Ye Huan dialed once more.
Repeatedly...
He called three times, but nobody picked up.
"Sir, if you don''t have an appointment, we can''t let you through, please understand." The receptionist gestured towards thepany entrance, thinking Ye Huan was just looking for trouble.
Ye Huan''s forehead was full of ck lines.
Visiting the family-operatedpany and almost getting kicked out, it''s ridiculous.
"Onest call, please wait a moment." Failing to reach that number, Ye Huan tried calling Su Qingqing.
Thirty secondster.
"The number you have dialed is currently switched off..."
Ye Huan held the phone, speechless, and looked at the receptionist, "The call didn''t get through, can you contact your chairman toe down and meet me? Secretary Su made an appointment for me."
"Sorry sir, the chairman is not someone a small receptionist like me can contact, and I can''t find any appointment for you. I''m afraid you''ll have to leave..."
"How about this, see if you can contact your manager to reach out to the chairman." Ye Huan said with a dark face.
The beautiful receptionist raised an eyebrow, convinced this guy was making trouble for no reason!
Just then, a security team walked over.
The receptionist went over and exined the situation to the middle-aged security officer.
The middle-aged security guy''s face suddenly darkened.
He walked up, hands behind his back, scrutinizing Ye Huan with a frown.
Is this the pretty boy Manager Huang mentioned?
"Kid, what''s your name?" the middle-aged guard asked Ye Huan indifferently.
"Ye Huan," Ye Huan said, ncing at the name tag on the guard''s chest.
Li Corporation, Security Team Leader - Ma Qingming.
Upon hearing Ye Huan''s reply, Ma Qingming frowned slightly.
The pretty boy Manager Huang wanted stopped, wasn''t him called Ye Huan?
"Kid, are you just bored looking for trouble at Li Corporation, or do you just not respect us security?"
Ma Qingming shoved his hands in his pockets, eyes cold on Ye Huan.
One sharp-witted guard ced a cigarette in his mouth, took out a lighter, shielding from the wind with one hand, lighting with the other.
Ye Huan saw his hostility and didn''t give him any face either, replying coldly, "I came here because Secretary Su told me to."
"Then where''s your appointment? Your call, couldn''t get through? Hmm?" Ma Qingming blew a smoke ring, sneering.
"Maybe your chairman is busy, but I can give you her phone number," Ye Huan said calmly.
"What a joke, you think you can have the Li Corporation chairman''s number? You can just make an appointment with her?!"
Before the beautiful receptionist could finish, an amused, mockingugh rang out.
A man with a bruised face, wearing a in tracksuit, passed through the sensor door into the lobby.
In the past, Huang Zhiwen would never touch clothes worn bymon folks, lowering his status!
But he had no choice, he couldn''t hail a taxi shirtless, so he grabbed these clothes from a nearby store.
"Sir, may I ask who you are?" The receptionist asked as Huang Zhiwen had no name tag.
"He''s Manager Huang Zhiqi''s older brother," Ma Qingming noted.
The receptionist''s face immediately showed a hint of respect.
Huang Zhiqi is the logistics department manager at Li Corporation, a position of power, the top superior of the receptionist and security, and the third young master of Capital City''s second-tier familythe Huang Family.
Huang San Shao''s eldest brother, isn''t that the infamous yboy of Capital City, Huang Da Shao?
Huang Zhiwen walked over, giving Ye Huan a cold look, a deep-seated hatred shing in his eyes.
However, he didn''t linger, instead, he made a call, "Third brother, I''m in thepany lobby,e down to meet me. In a meeting, about to finish? Okay, hurry up."
"Your Manager Huang ising to meet me." Huang Zhiwen casually remarked after putting away the phone.
Ma Qingming instantly showed ttery, escorting him to a chair in the reception area, helping him sit like a lord, summoning a security guard to light him a cigarette.
Compared to his earlier attitude towards Ye Huan, it was like night and day.
"Kid, Li Corporation isn''t a ce for freeloaders like you, I suggest you go back where you came from."
"Calling the chairman, really bragging to the skies."
Huang Zhiwen, jiggling his leg, exhaled thick smoke, scolding Ye Huan arrogantly.
He knew Ye Huan was close to Su Qingqing but couldn''t believe he had Ye Qiqing''s number.
Who is she? The daughter of Ye Tiance and Li Luo!
The super trillonaire conglomerateLi Corporation''s helmswoman!
Su Qingqing''s sworn sister rtionship with Ye Qiqing wasn''t public, they appeared as superior and subordinate to outsiders.
So, Huang Zhiwen didn''t believe Su Qingqing would casually give her contact info to this pretty boy Ye Huan.
The receptionist also thought Ye Huan was bluffing; after all, Ye Qiqing''s contact isn''t something just anyone can have.
Once again, she gestured towards the door, "Sir, I''m sorry, but if you don''t have an appointment, we can''t let you in, please understand."
"Your chairman is Ye Qiqing, right?" Ye Huan suddenly asked.
The receptionist was stunned, then nodded.
"I''m her elder brother, have your manager contact her." With no choice, Ye Huan revealed his identity.
Who knew...
"Hahaha!"
When Ye Huan said this, the scene turned quite jubnt.
Not just Huang Zhiwen and Ma Qingming, but even regr security guards and the Li Corporation employees in the reception area were allughing heartily!
Too funny!
Huang Zhiwenughed till he cried.
"Kid, you''re really something," Huang Zhiwenughed, giving Ye Huan a thumbs up, "Saying you''re the chairman''s elder brother just because I said I''m Manager Huang''s brother? You''re really something else, haha!"
Another round ofughter filled the room.
Just before, when asked what he was up to, Huang Zhiwen didn''t bother exining, just whipped out his phone and made a call.
And on the other end was indeed Li Corporation''s logistics department managerHuang Zhiqi!
But this kid?
Endless boasting, first iming to have an appointment with Secretary Su.
The receptionist couldn''t find the appointment, and when he called, not a single number connected!
Now what? After Huang Zhiwen revealed his identity and was seen calling Manager Huang, and was fawned over by security, this kid ims he''s Ye Qiqing''s big brother?
Boasts so big he risks spraining his back!
Employees in the lounge area looked at Ye Huan with mocking smiles.
Why can''t this kid recognize his own ce?
The gap between people can''t be bridged with just words!
Huang Da Shao saying he''s Manager Huang''s brother was proven with a call!
And this kid? Just full of hot air!
Not a single call got through, pretending to be powerful when he''s not!
Chapter 452 - 443: When I Go Crazy, I Even Fight Myself
"This guy must have a screw loose, bragging like that. I''ve really seen it all now."
"Exactly, iming to be the big brother of Chairman Ye, almostughed me to death!"
"Look at Young Master Huang calling himself Manager Huang''s brother, and he just t out ims to be the chairman''s brother, what a master of bullshitting."
"Plenty of folkse here trying to stir up trouble or sneak in to see the world, but I''ve never seen someone with skin this thick."
"Shameless, standing here is literally tarnishing ourpany''s floors, polluting ourpany''s air!"
"He must be thrown out!"
It seemed evident that Huang Zhiwen held a grudge against Ye Huan, so the employees in the reception area of Li Corporation all mocked Ye Huan, trying to curry favor with Manager Huang''s elder brother.
After all, this brother was a "genuine brother," confirmed by a phone call.
Listening to these mockingments directed at Ye Huan, Huang Zhiwen puffed out a ring of smoke, feeling immensely satisfied, his expression even more smug.
Someone who lives off others will always do so, good-looking but useless!
What''s the use of being handsome, can it fill your belly...
Wait... with those lookstching onto Su Qingqing, it really can.
But what does it matter? Before me, Huang Zhiwen, you''re nothing!
I can make one phone call and have this pretty boy stopped by security, unable to enter thepany, boasting like a fool only to publicly disgrace himself!
"Tap. Tap. Tap."
A series of rapid footsteps came from the corridor on the far right of the lobby.
Huang Zhiwen knew that corridor had just one roomthe logistics department meeting room.
It must be the third brother finishing the meeting,ing over with the senior managers.
Alright, time to put on the final act.
"You can throw him out now," Huang Zhiwen said with a smirk, casually gesturing.
Ma Qingming looked at Ye Huan, a hint of malice in his eyes, tapping an iron rod onto his palm, speaking in a low voice, "Kid, I''m telling you, when I go crazy, I even hit myself. So, what''s your choice? Are you walking out on your own, or do we break your legs and throw you out?"
The security guards followed suit, maliciously drawing iron rods from their waists, tapping them menacingly on their hands.
Ye Huan''s eyes turned cold; his patience was thoroughly exhausted.
But just as he was about to act and teach these people a lesson,
"What''s happening?" a cold female voice came from the right of the lobby.
Along with the voice were the sounds of dense footsteps, and dozens of people apanying.
Leading them was a woman.
The woman was stunning.
Unbelievably beautiful.
Her exceptionally sculpted features seemed as if they were personally carved by the heavens, her sparkling eyes as gentle and clear as autumn ponds, and her small cherry lips gave one the irresistible urge to kiss.
She wore a gray OL uniform that perfectly entuated her sizzling S-shaped figure, with beige crystal stockings wrapping her fair, long legs, adding to her beauty.
She was beautiful, yet...
Not one dared to stare at her!
Because she was the chairman of Li Corporation; she was the daughter of Ye Tiance and Li LuoYe Qiqing!
"Greetings, Chairman!"
Seeing her arrival, Ma Qingming and the leading security guards bowed their heads in unison.
Even the employees in the reception area stood up and bowed, expressing their respect.
Ye Qiqing approached with a stern face, asking coldly again, "What''s the sit..."
Before she could finish thest word, seeing the familiar face beside the security guard, her movements halted, with disbelief filling her eyes.
Her actions paused, and although the high-level executives behind her were puzzled, they too stopped.
One of them discreetly called Huang Zhiwen over, pointed at Ye Huan, and asked, "Big brother, is this the pretty boy you were talking about?"
"Yes, it''s definitely him." Huang Zhiwen nodded.
"Damn, this pretty boy looks like he''s asking for a beating; big bro, you have to smash him beneath your foot!"
"Don''t worry, I''ll stomp him down," Huang Zhiwen said viciously.
"Great, big bro, you can start showing off now. Oh, and by the way, a piece of good news, I''ve just been promoted to deputy director of the logistics department." Huang Zhiqi proudly informed Huang Zhiwen from the side.
"Haha!"
Huang Zhiwen burst intoughter, bing the focal point of attention.
But he didn''t mind!
Deputy director? That''s a rank higher than a manager!
With his younger brother being so aplished, he, as the big brother, shares the glory.
Of course, what made him the most excited was the opportunity to converse with the chairman of Li CorporationYe Qiqing!
Huang Zhiwen walked up to Ye Qiqing with his hands behind his back, pointing at Ye Huan, and angrily said:
"Chairman Ye, this kid had nothing better to do and came to our Li Corporation looking for trouble. He keeps saying Secretary Su asked him to wait for her in ourpany, but there''s no appointment record, and no calls connected."
"He ims it couldn''t connect, but I say, this kid just dialed a nonexistent number, trying to sneakily slip into ourpany under false pretenses."
"What''s more infuriating is that after being blocked by security and reception, and seeing me reveal myself as Manager Huang''s brother getting through, he dered himself as your brother, Chairman Ye, the nerve of such an act."
"So, I just had the securitye over to give him a good beating and throw him out, to make sure he knows Li Corporation isn''t a ce he can just walk into!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Qiqing cast an icy gaze that made Huang Zhiwen tremble all over.
Good heavens, that aura is too intense.
Yet, his gaze at Ye Huan was full of schadenfreude.
If Ye Qiqing was this angry, she would definitely order the security to break this kid''s legs, hahaha!
"Who are you?"
Ye Qiqing''s cold inquiry left Huang Zhiwen stunned.
Before Huang Zhiwen could reply, Huang Zhiqi, dressed in a suit, hair slicked back, exuding the demeanor of a sessful man, stepped forward with a smile, "Chairman Ye, this is my elder brother, Huang Zhiwen."
"Your brother? Eldest son of the Huang Family?"
For some reason, Ye Qiqing''s voice grew even colder.
"Yes, Chairman Ye, pleased to meet you, I am Huang Zhiwen." Huang Zhiwen extended his hand, a lecherous curve forming at the corners of his mouth.
If he could just touch Ye Qiqing''s jade-like hand, his life would beplete.
Unexpectedly, Ye Qiqing outright ignored him.
"So who instructed to block him?" Ye Qiqing coldly continued her inquiry.
"I instructed them!" Huang Zhiwen quickly took credit.
"You did?" Ye Qiqing''s gaze suddenly turned colder, nearly causing Huang Zhiwen to fall on his backside, "What authority do you have to block someone at my Li Corporation?"
"Because I!"
"Chairman Ye, this is my elder brother, I gave him this authority."
"My elder brother proactively wanted to help ourpany thwart potential ''illegal elements,'' so of course, I agreed."
Huang Zhiqiughed and said.
Ye Qiqing jokingly asked, "So, should I also reward your brother?"
Huang Zhiwen was overjoyed.
Huang Zhiqi was also delighted.
If big brother received praise from the chairman, then as the younger brother, he shares in the glory.
Huang Zhiwen even smugly nced at Ye Huan.
His gaze was utterly contemptuous.
As if saying: "See, you can only gnash your teeth in impotent rage. But I, Huang Zhiwen..."
"Can receive praise and rewards from Chairman Ye!"
Chapter 453 - 444: Pretending to be cool?
The gap between people is just that big!
Huang Zhiwen''s face grew more and morecent.
Beside him, Huang Zhiqi smiled broadly and said, "President, you have always been fair and impartial. I believe you will make your own judgment."
"Huang Zhiqi, the ''Logistics Department Layoff Proposal'' you just proposed at the meeting is quite good."
Upon hearing Ye Qiqing''s words, Huang Zhiqi was puzzled but then delighted.
Why is Ye Chairman praising him instead of his brother?
Could it be because he gave his brother the authority to mobilize the security team and block that arrogant guy who ims to be Ye Chairman''s brother in thepany lobby?
Haha, it must be the case!
Brother is indeed a lucky star!
Huang Zhiqi''s face flushed with intense excitement.
Not only did Ye Qiqing praise him, but she also endorsed the proposal he put forward...
Haha, fantastic!
Huang Zhiqi was so close to jumping up in excitement.
Earlier at the meeting, the previous head of the logistics department had to resign due to reaching retirement age, and since no recement was yet decided, Ye Qiqing temporarily promoted him, the logistics department manager, to acting head.
Then, he conveniently proposed the "Logistics Department Layoff Proposal."
As long as Ye Qiqing approves this proposal, the authority over staffing decisions in the logistics department would temporarily be transferred from the HR department to him, the acting head of the logistics department.
Li Corporation, being a colossal enterprise, offers employee benefits that fewpanies globally can match.
By then, those in the logistics department seeking promotion or fearingyoffs wouldvish him with substantial benefits!
This would allow him to earn a fortune and even appoint people based on favoritism, turning the logistics department into his personal circle, essentially bing the Supreme Emperor of the logistics department!
Huang Zhiqi was extremely excited but managed to suppress it, speaking with resolute determination, "President, rest assured, entrust theyoffs to me, and I will streamline the logistics department staffing and enhance the quality of its employees."
"I believe restructuring the logistics department''s workforce is quite simple."
"As for enhancing employee quality, eliminating some bad apples should suffice."
Ye Qiqing said calmly.
Bad apples?
Did someone in the logistics department offend Ye Qiqing?
Though puzzled, Huang Zhiqi still ttered and agreed, "Ye Chairman, you''re absolutely right, some bad apples trulyckmendable quality..."
"Logistics Department Head Huang Zhiqi, you''re fired!"
Before Huang Zhiqi could finish speaking, Ye Qiqing''s coldmand caused his legs to give out, copsing to the ground with a thud.
As Huang Zhiqi fell to the ground, his eyes widened.
No mistake, right? Theyoff proposal was excellent, so he''s the one gettingid off?
What is happening!
"Ye Chairman, how could you do this?"
"Regarding my loyalty, I won''t say otherwise. I have always been devoted to thepany, shining my light for it!"
Feeling aggrieved, Huang Zhiqi said, "Even if you''re firing me, at least give me a reason. Otherwise, I cannot be convinced!"
"You want a reason?" Ye Qiqing''s tone was so cold it made Huang Zhiqi shiver uncontrobly.
"A reason is necessary!"
Before Huang Zhiqi could speak.
Beside him, Huang Zhiwen mustered the courage to question:
"Ye Chairman, pardon my bluntness, isn''t your action a bit inappropriate?"
"It was under my guidance that my younger brother assembled thepany''s security team to block that pretentious guy who ims to be your brother from entering."
"You''re not going to deal with that pretentious guy or reward my younger brother and me, but instead, you''re firing my younger brother?"
"You..."
At this point, cold sweat dripped down Huang Zhiwen''s forehead, but he still angrily rebuked, "You are being outrageously unjust! You!"
"Are you done talking?"
Ye Qiqing''s sharp gaze almost scared Huang Zhiwen into wetting himself.
Huang Zhiwen''s throat moved with difficulty, realizing that verbally attacking Ye Qiqing was akin to seeking death, he hurriedly apologized, "Ye Chairman, I''m sorry, I shouldn''t have said those words to you..."
"Smack!!!"
A loud p echoed through thepany lobby.
Being pped and knocked to the ground in front of so many people, Huang Zhiwen felt utterly humiliated.
But he didn''t dare act out, as the Chairman of Li Corporation, Ye Tiance, and the princess of the Li Family are not entities he or the Huang Family backing him can afford to defy.
Not daring to act out, he even had to apologize!
The anger just now led him to insult Ye QiqingCa path to self-destruction!
"Ye Chairman, I''m sorry, I... I shouldn''t have insulted you..."
"Smack!!!"
Before he could finish.
The sound of a p echoed again.
"Is my big brother, Ye Qiqing, someone you can insult?!"
With Ye Qiqing''s icy statement, the apologizing Huang Zhiwen felt as if he had fallen into an ice pit, while his pants suddenly became wet...
It''s not just him...
"..."
A deadly silence filled thepany lobby...
At this point, everyone saw that Ye Qiqing wasn''t angry because Huang Zhiwen called her "ineffectual," but rather...
It was because...
because Huang Zhiwen insulted the "big brother" she mentioned. That''s why she was so enraged!
On the ground, Huang Zhiwen''s eyes widened in bewilderment.
Insulting Ye Qiqing''s big brother? When did that happen!?
It''s not just him who''s confused!
Everyone present was puzzled!
Looking around.
Other than the pretentious guy and Huang Zhiwen, everyone present was an employee of Li Corporation, people they often see in passing, and none had heard of anyone being Ye Qiqing''s big brother!
No, wait...
As if realizing something, everyone suddenly shivered.
Their gazes gradually shifted to the side, where Ye Huan stood, calm and expressionless...
Big brother?
This... this "pretentious guy" is the one iming to be Ye Qiqing''s big brother!?
Could it be...
No way!
Huang Zhiwen and his group held their breath, unable to believe their thoughts.
But the next second, Ye Qiqing''s actions and demeanor struck them like a bolt of lightning.
"Big brother, I''m sorry you were wronged, forgive me."
"Also, I... I''ve missed you so much!!"
Ye Qiqing dashed over to Ye Huan, blushing with shyness, wrapping her arms around him like an octopus, her eyelids bashfully closing slightly.
It''s hard to imagine that this woman feared by Capital City''s affluent circles, the leader of Li Corporation, could disy such a small, tender side!
"Boom!!!"
The scene before them exploded like thunder, rendering many people''s minds utterly nk!
Huang Zhiwen...
Huang Zhiqi...
Ma Qingming...
All the security from the security team...
The employees who ridiculed Ye Huan to curry favor with Huang Zhiwen...
They all looked as if their world had copsed!
Chapter 454 - 445 The Miserable Huang Zhiwen
Ye Huan''s face turned as dark as Judge Bao, his forehead full of ck lines.
What kind of situation was this? Being hugged so affectionately by Ye Qiqing in public, it was utterly scandalous!
About seven secondster, Ye Qiqing finally let go of Ye Huan, blushing.
Then, she fluttered her big Caslon eyes, looked directly at Ye Huan, and asked seriously:
"Brother Ye, tell me, how do you want to deal with these wretched people who give you a hard time? Is it a thousand cuts or feed them to pigs? You decide."
As soon as she said this, thepany''s lobby was immediately filled with a pungent smell.
Almost everyone was scared to wet themselves.
A thousand cuts, feed to pigs?
They had no doubt that Ye Qiqing was capable of it!
"No need to be so harsh, you handle it as you see fit."
Ye Huan said with a dark face.
He had just arrived in Capital City and didn''t want to stir up any trouble.
For instance, regarding the Huang Family behind the Huang brothers, although he could easily handle it, it would still require effort, wasting energy and timepletely unnecessary.
"Minister of Logistics, Huang Zhiqi, all members of Security Team One. Also, I''ll have someone check the surveince footageter."
"Anyone here who was disrespectful to my brother..."
"Dismiss them all!"
Ye Qiqing turned her head, her expression changed instantly, and she shouted angrily as fire shed in her eyes.
Then, she pulled Ye Huan into the elevator, leaving thepany''s lobby.
"..."
Thepany''s lobby remained dead silent.
Previously extremely arrogant Mai Qingming and the other security guards, as well as the employees in the reception area who had been disrespectful to Ye Huan to please Huang Zhiqi and Huang Zhiwen, all turned pale as paper, looking utterly hopeless.
Huang Zhiqi was no different.
He had just been promoted to Minister of Logistics, and his future was promising...
But just because he offended an extraordinary person, his future was abruptly cut off!
Why...why, didn''t Huang Zhiwen say he was just a pretty face!
How could this pretty face be Ye Qiqing''s big brother!
Who is Ye Qiqing? Daughter of Ye Tiance of Celestial Strategy, the most doted on descendant of the Li Family, Li Hentian!
How could he, Huang Zhiqi, dare to offend her big brother, especially after having security block him at the door? This...this was a suicidal act!
The only reason they spared his life now is because her brother spoke up. If she decided to settle scorester for him, he might still face death!
His future was gone, and he might even lose his life!
Huang Zhiqi''s gaze turned venomous as he red at the dazed Huang Zhiwen, who had a bruised nose and a swollen face.
At this moment, Huang Zhiwen felt waves of shock and disbelief.
Is this a joke!?
This pretty face isn''t just pretending!?
He...he really is Ye Qiqing''s big brother!
And this big brother is definitely not a "normal big brother"!
The two share the surname Ye, but they look nothing alike.
Also, if they were real siblings, why would Ye Qiqing be so shy when hugging Ye Huan?
The only exnation is that the "big brother" Ye Qiqing referred to carries significant affection, like a lover''s nickname!
This pretty face has quite the skills, not only getting involved with Su Qingqing but also winning over Su Qingqing''s bossYe Qiqing!?
To win the hearts of these two powerful individuals at Li Corporation, his handsome face really does feed him well!
And I was still pretending in front of him, and stepping on him?
Ye Qiqing''s big brother, was someone I could trample on!?
The biggest backing I relied onHuang Zhiqi was dismissed with just a word from his backer, leaving him no future!
Damn, the difference between people is too big!
This pretty face can rely on his looks to win over Ye Qiqing, who has both supreme power and background, while I can only get pped by her.
Huang Zhiwen looked filled with grief and indignation.
Being born also requires skill!
This pretty face, despite everything, can rely on sponging to crush not only himself but also the Huang Family behind him!
No, he can''t provoke him!
He must quickly disappear from this pretty face''s sight and never appear in his life again, otherwise, if this pretty face finds him boring andins to Ye Qiqing, a hundred of him wouldn''t be enough to survive!
Huang Zhiwen endured the pain, getting up and running towards thepany''s exit.
At this time.
"Stop!!!"
Mai Qingming''s powerful roar directly scared Huang Zhiwen causing him to shiver.
"Wh...what is it?" Huang Zhiwen''s throat moved with difficulty as he turned his head.
Seeing Mai Qingming''s bloodshot eyes and menacing face, readying an iron rod, Huang Zhiwen''s eyes filled with fear, and his voice trembled as he warned, "Wh...what are you trying to do? I warn you, don''t mess around..."
"Bang!"
Before he could finish, Mai Qingming delivered a powerful kick to his groin, bending his body into a bow, nearly causing his eyeballs to bulge out of their sockets.
It was so painful, Huang Zhiwen felt like he was neutered.
"Get him, beat him to death!!!"
Mai Qingming swung the iron rod while roaring.
Huang Family''s young master''s warning might not have been disregarded before.
But he was beyond furious, how could he care anymore!?
Twenty years ago, when Li Corporation was just starting, the requirements for security weren''t high, so even those without much education like Mai Qingming and the others could get in and do quite well, now earning twenty-five thousand a month, higher than somepanies'' middle or even senior management, hence they could barely afford Capital City''s high housing prices.
But once fired, without education or skills, they certainly wouldn''t find another opportunity like this, reducing their monthly sry to two thousand or even less, not even enough to pay their mortgage!
If it weren''t for Huang Zhiwen, could they have possibly offended that great figure and gotten dismissed!?
That great figure was truly Ye Qiqing''s big brother!
The security guards all picked up iron rods, their eyes bloodshot, beating Huang Zhiwen violently.
Screams echoed continuously.
"Ouch...it hurts so much, stop beating..."
"Stop, ouch..."
"Oh shit..."
Huang Zhiwen''s miserable wails didn''t deter the security guards; instead, it made them, like a spouse abuser, hit harder and harder.
The damage felt conquer-like, hitting harder increased the damage, making Huang Zhiwen''s howls be increasingly shrill.
When the security guards were exhausted, Huang Zhiqi led the furious employees up to "take over" and continued beating Huang Zhiwen into cries of agony.
If it weren''t for this guy, would they have ended up being dismissed!?
These employees each month had mortgages and car loans to pay, and even supported their young model-looking wives, now being dismissed.
Unable to pay mortgages and car loans, their wives would leave for rich old men!
Half an hourter, Huang Zhiwen was almost unconscious.
The security guards and the employees then turned the tables, beating Huang Zhiqi into a bloody head.
If it weren''t for Huang Zhiqi, would they have ttered Huang Zhiwen out of sheer boredom, thus offending Mr. Ye''s big brother and getting dismissed!?
Half another hour, and the crowd finally left in indignation.
Huang Zhiqi''s injuries were better than those of Huang Zhiwen. After getting up, he gave Huang Zhiwen another furious beating, then called an ambnce for himself.
Huang Zhiwen was absolutely outraged.
Huang Zhiqi was so selfish, would it have killed him to call an extra ambnce!
He wanted to call for an ambnce now but couldn''t!
The only possession he had, his phone, was robbed!
The sportswear on him was also stripped by the security guards.
A bunch of bandits!
Huang Zhiwen cursed fiercely in his heart.
Then, he painfully crawled through the automatic door, out of thepany lobby.
But just then.
"Ah, pervert!!!!"
Su Qingqing, who had just returned to thepany entrance, saw a person crawling on the ground wearing only floral boxers, with a bruised face, looking like a pervert, and she screamed sharply, kicking fiercely with her high heels.
The heelnded directly on Huang Zhiwen''s most vulnerable spot.
Huang Zhiwen clutched his groin, his eyes bulging wider than eggs.
The feeling...he really felt like he was neutered!
Three secondster, the searing pain in his groin caused him to pass outpletely, his life hanging in the bnce
"""
Chapter 455 - 446: Continuing the Past Relationship?
"Ye Huan, do you have telepathy, knowing that I miss you so much, so you came to see me, right?"
Li Corporation, 108th floor, in the spacious chairman''s office.
Ye Qiqing''s eyes were moist, her hands tightly grasping Ye Huan''s left hand, her cheeks nearly touching his face.
Because she kept moving closer to Brother Huan, he was already cornered against the wall with nowhere to retreat.
Ye Huan''s mouth twitched a few times, hurriedly saying, "I''m not..."
"What''s ''not'' about it? Ye Huan, you''re a grown man, what''s there to be shy about!" Before Ye Huan could finish, Ye Qiqing earnestly interrupted him, "Don''t ''deny'' it. I know you came to find me because you miss me!"
"I''m not..."
"What''s ''not'' about it? Ye Huan, stop being insincere!" Ye Qiqing said frustrately, "I know you''re telepathically in tune with me, knowing I wanted you to go to Lilith''s concert with me, so you came to find me, right?"
"I''m not..."
"What''s ''not'' about it! If you keep this up, Ye Huan, I might just get angry!" Ye Qiqing feigned anger, huffing while putting her hands on her hips.
If Judge Bao came back to life and sat with Brother Huan, their level of ck-facedness would likely be on par!
What is all this!
Not to mention, I''m at least your real brother!
Ye Huan said sternly, "Ye Qiqing, I''m your brother..."
"Yes, you are my Ye Huan, aren''t you?"
"I''m not..."
"Don''t speak, listen to me!" Ye Qiqing shouted irritably, then continued:
"Ye Huan, I know you came this time to ''rekindle our previous bond'', and I happen to think the same!"
"Do you know, when you stood in front of me back then, facing those fierce assassins with weapons without flinching, and drove them all away, saving me from thousands. At that moment, your figure in my heart was like a giant, like a Celestial God descending!"
"And, afterwards, you hugged me to the hospital, signing the surgery risk agreement in the capacity of a husband. You know, had the surgery failed and I died, you would have been held responsible! You might have faced a great deal of trouble! You didn''t have to take on this responsibility or risk, but I heard from the nurse that when you signed, you didn''t hesitate at all!"
"Not only that, but youter donated blood, 300, practically draining your own blood!"
"Afterwards, in the hospital room, you talked to me with a cold face, asking me to pay 10,000 yuan for medical and nutritional expenses. But I knew, after you left, you turned around and handed the money to the head nurse, asking her to take good care of me. You''re all bark and no bite!"
"You not only offended the assassins to save me, but also took on unnecessary risks, donated 300 of blood, and in the end, with your barbed words but soft heart, gave the 10,000 yuan I gave you to the head nurse. You bore all the losses, and after knowing my identity, you still refused my marriage proposal, which shows you genuinely wanted to save and help me!"
"You know, I''ve never had feelings for any other man, only you your actions back then seemed small, but they were really gentle, hitting straight at my heart!"
The more Ye Qiqing spoke, the more emotional she became, her jade hands gripping Ye Huan''s left hand ever tighter.
In the end, she was moved to tears.
The vast green grasnd in Ye Huan''s heart had been plowed by ten thousand Divine Beasts in turns!
I saved you purely because you looked pitiful and it was just convenient, I didn''t mean to hit you in the heart!
I never meant to ''rekindle our previous bond''...
No, there was never any previous bond, so how could it be rekindled???
Besides, we''re siblings, not that "brother and sister" thing like couples!
Ye Huan was utterly speechless, yet still gritted his teeth and consoled, "You... calm down..."
"Ye Huan, don''t worry!"
Ye Qiqing wiped her eyes with her sleeve, took a deep breath, and said seriously, "Ye Huan, rest assured, as long as you love me and are willing to be with me for life, I don''t mind if you''ve had other women."
"I..." Ye Huan clutched his stomach, nearly spitting out a mouthful of old blood.
"I don''t mean that kind of thing, didn''t want to ''rekindle any previous bond''!" Ye Huan shouted helplessly.
"If not to rekindle, then you came to develop feelings with me? Hmm, I also think we should nurture feelings first, make you genuinely fall in love with me..."
"I didn''te here for you!" Ye Huan interrupted Ye Qiqing sharply, surely.
"Impossible!"
"If not for me, then who did youe for?"
"You really are a typical insincere man, but... I like it!"
Ye Qiqing hummed again, a blush arising on her pretty face.
No other way, Ye Huan with a dark face took out his phone, made a call.
"Ring ring ring."
The phone rang.
Hearing this, Ye Qiqing''s face changed slightly.
Almost forgot something very important, isn''t sister''s crushing to thepany, have to receive them.
"Ye Huan, wait a moment."
Ye Qiqing said with a hint of apology, then she ran to the desk, hurriedly picked up the vibrating phone on the desk.
Quickly answered.
"Hello?"
"Hello." Ye Huan said.
Ye Qiqing rolled her eyes at him, but internally, there was a hint of glee.
Did Ye Huan interrupt my call because he was jealous of me talking with another man?
See, a typical insincere man...
But wait...
As if realizing something, Ye Qiqing''s face turned pale.
The voice on the phone just now, why does it sound so much like Ye Huan''s!?
Ye Qiqing took a deep breath, said again, "Hello?"
"Hello?" Ye Huan responded.
Ye Qiqing''s face suddenly changed, and she hung up the phone.
Simultaneously, she nced at the phone in Ye Huan''s hand, saw the screen go dark, her heart skipped a beat...
Could it be, such a coincidence?
She had aplex expression, lightly biting her lips, dialed again.
"Ring ring ring."
Ye Huan''s phone screen lit up in response.
Hung up the phone.
The ringing came to an abrupt end, and the screen went dark again.
Ye Qiqing gritted her teeth, dialed again.
Seeing Ye Huan''s phone screen light up and hearing the ringing, she remained skeptical and said, "Hello?"
"This is Ye Huan."
Chapter 456 - 447 Lilith
Ye Qiqing: "..."
Ye Huan hung up the phone and helplessly said, "Now do you believe it? I''m here to see your sister, Su Qingqing."
Believe?
How could Ye Qiqing not believe it, the facts were happening right in front of her.
Ye Huan and she didn''t have each other''s contact information.
The three missed calls showing on her phone were all from Ye Huan''s number.
There''s only one possibility, and that is...
The heartthrob Su Qingqing mentioned visiting thepany is Ye Huan, and Su Qingqing gave her contact information to him!
Ye Qiqing remembered that those pesky people giving Ye Huan trouble partly because they didn''t believe, didn''t believe Ye Huan was at thepany waiting for Su Qingqing!
Earlier, upon seeing Ye Huan, she was so excited that she forgot about this part.
Her little face turned pale, and her expression became somewhat dazed.
So, she and Su Qingqing not only fell in love with a married man, but also...
Fell in love with the same married man!?
Isn''t that just too coincidental!?
Ye Qiqing clutched the hem of her OL uniform, her face extremelyplex.
She even thought Ye Huan had a telepathic connection and came looking for her.
And the result? He was here for Su Qingqing!
He has been keeping in touch with Su Qingqing, but with her... not even a single call or message!
How could there be such a big gap between people?
At that moment, Ye Qiqing felt extremely jealous of Su Qingqing.
But jealousy aside, she and Su Qingqing had been eating and sleeping together for a month, sharing many little secrets and heartfelt words before bed every night, their feelings had grown very deep.
"Brother Ye, our rtionship..."
"Must be kept secret!"
"Absolutely can''t tell sister!"
Taking a deep breath once more, Ye Qiqing spoke seriously.
Inside Ye Huan''s mind, the tumultuous Divine Beasts started stirring again.
Why does this conversation sound so strange?
Is it that ambiguous that we have some special rtionship???
Is being siblings considered a special rtionship?
Ye Huan felt that revealing the "true rtionship" now would make Ye Qiqing''s feelings even moreplicated.
No choice, he had to wait for a while, let Lilu and Ye Tiance tell her, which would be better.
...
"Miss, we really can''t hold a concert in Huaxia."
"Let''s hurry and buy return tickets to the West."
"ording to intelligence from the Divine Hall, those assassins have already infiltrated Huaxia and are targeting you!"
At Capital City International Airport, a woman in a fiery red dress, with short golden hair, chased after another woman who was chewing gum, dressed in a light yellow dress, with long golden wavy hair.
Even though both women wore sunsses, they couldn''t hide their outstanding looks and aristocratic aura, attracting many gazes at the airport.
At the same time, observers found the long golden waves familiar but couldn''t recall exactly who she was.
No wonder, who would think that the World Celestial Queen Lilith woulde to Huaxia, apanied by only one assistant and bodyguard, without any fans to greet her?
"Miss, please seriously consider my suggestion and cancel this concert."
"This is Huaxia, guarded by the Dragon Gate, where the Divine Hall''s guards cannot enter!"
"Once those people make a move on you, without the protection of the Divine Hall''s guards, you''ll be in absolute danger!"
Seeing Lilith not responding, Diana in the fiery red dress couldn''t hide her anxiety beneath her sunsses, directly grabbing Lilith''s pale left arm.
Lilith paused, coldly nced at her, "Let go."
"Didn''t you hear me say let go?" A few secondster, seeing that Diana still hadn''t reacted, Lilith raised her brows.
"Miss..." Diana gritted her teeth, and said, "I''m sorry I can''tply, holding this concert will put you in extremely dangerous circumstances, and without the Divine Hall''s protection in Huaxia, your life will be greatly threatened!"
"Then let it be a threat." Lilith nonchntly replied, "I don''t care."
Diana: "..."
She remained silent for a while, yet her stance was still firm, solemnly saying, "Miss, I can''t just watch you fall into danger. If you insist on not returning to the West, I''ll have to take unconventional measures..."
"You dare!" Before she could finish, Lilith red at her fiercely, leaving her speechless.
As the maid and bodyguard personally assigned by Hera to Lilith, Diana truly didn''t dare to rough up Lilith.
If she identally harmed this Dark World''s grand princess, her head wouldn''t be safe.
ncing at the bowing Diana, Lilith coldly said:
"Tell that old man Zeus, this concert is happening."
"If he wants me to cancel this concert and save my life, he should agree to one of my two conditions."
"One, give me back my man; two, publicly announce to the Dark World that I''m betrothed to my man;"
"That old man keeps saying he loves me as his daughter, but what does he actually do? I finally found an opportunity to take him down, nearly conquered his heart, and made him fall in love with me, but that old man butted in and ruined everything. I won''t let him get away with it!"
"Tell him, if he doesn''t meet my demands, I will sever our father-daughter rtionship before I die!"
After angrily ranting, Lilith left with a huff.
She walked out of the airport and boarded the Lamborghini Jiuzhou Wind God waiting outside, driving away quickly.
Diana was so worried she nearly jumped, quickly hailing a taxi to follow the Lamborghini Jiuzhou Wind God and simultaneously took out her phone to make a satellite-encrypted call, rying Lilith''s words exactly to the Divine King Zeus and Divine Queen Hera.
...
In the West, the Alps, Dark Holy City.
"You disgrace!!!"
Chapter 457 - 448: A Mortal Body, On Par with the Celestial God
It''s hard to imagine that within the body of this world-famous mountain, there lies a city, the Western Dark WorldHoly City!
Its area and scale areparable to, if not surpassing, international cities like New York, Paris, and the Huaxia Capital City.
The ruler of this city is none other than the first among the twelve Celestial Gods of the Dark WorldDivine King Zeus and the Divine Queen Hera.
At the very center of the city, there stands a pceparable to a royal pce, but strangely, the overall tone of this pce is ck and purple, giving it an extremely oppressive feeling.
The Divine King Hall.
In the main hall, on a long chair adorned with many skulls, Zeus, d in a ck robe, shouted this sentence with utter grievance, almost vomiting blood of rage.
He felt as if his blood pressure had shot up, and further development might lead to a brain hemorrhage.
"Alright, don''t be mad anymore."
In his arms, a woman with a diamond ice crystal mask covering her eyes, possessing waterfall-like long snow-white hair and a calm face, extended a jade-like white hand, patting Zeus''s back.
The woman exuded a naturally holy aura, as if a fairy had descended to the mortal world.
The Divine King guards inside the pce dared not even nce at her.
Because she was the wife of the Divine KingDivine Queen Hera.
Second among the twelve Celestial Gods!
"How can I not be angry!"
"Look what you''ve done, you''ve spoiled your daughter to this extent!"
"Because of some wild man, she wants to openly break with me, her father!"
Zeus not only failed to quell his anger, but it instead surged to the sky.
He was utterly furious.
Divine Queen Hera looked helpless, sighed, and said, "What Lilith said this time is somewhat excessive."
"More than excessive? It''s simply outrageous, a disgrace!" Zeus mmed the armrest of his chair hard, turning a skull into dust, breathing heavily in anger.
Hera rolled her eyes at him and said, "Just curse a bit to vent, don''t get seriously worked up. Besides, it''s not the time to be angry now, what we need to think about is how to get Lilith to cancel this concert and return under our protection."
"What do you mean?" Sensing an underlying message in Hera''s words, Zeus frowned.
"It''s the same proposal I made back then. The matter between Lilith and her beloved can''t be reversed, perhaps letting them be together..."
"Absolutely not!" Before Hera could finish, Zeus interrupted coldly: "This is one thing we absolutely cannot negotiate on. If that kid hadn''t run away at the time, I wouldn''t be so adamant about separating them. My daughter, Lilith... can''t marry a coward."
Hera rolled her eyes again, speaking irritably: "You should be grateful that boy was smart and had the ability to escape from you. Otherwise, he would have been dead at your hands by now. If that were the case, your precious daughter would surely have broken entirely with you."
Zeus kept a cold face, silent because he knew Hera was right.
Lilith being rescued by that boy, falling for him, and following him was something he was naturally aware of.
ording to Diana''s report, their daughter spent months with that kid and tried several times to give herself to him, but each time she was brushed off because of her identity.
This pleased Zeus, even making him consider that if the kid could restrain himself and grow to rank thirteenth in the Celestial God Rankings, he would allow him to marry Lilith.
Who would have thought one day Diana would suddenly lose contact?
Zeus was frantic, taking several hours to get in touch with her, learning that Lilith had drugged her with sleeping pills!
The most crucial information was that while she was asleep, Lilith was taken by that kid!
As a father, Zeus was immediately infuriated, leading the Divine King Guard with him, swearing the kid would pay the price!
Upon discovering that the rascal had taken his daughter without making any formalmitment, Zeus didn''t hesitate and resolved to kill him on sight.
Who knew that just fifteen minutes before they arrived at the hotel where it all happened, the kid had fled the "crime scene."
His daughter was taken, yet he, as a father, didn''t even see the face of the original offender.
Moreover, that kid had disappeared for so many years,pletely vanishing without a trace, clearly having his fill and fleeing without any intention of taking responsibility for Lilith!
Zeus was enraged, yet unable tosh out, with anger festering in his heart for years.
Under these circumstances, how could he consider betrothing his daughter to that kid?
Seeing Zeus''s face grow increasingly dark, Hera, helpless, asked, "Then what do you want? Our daughter has already gone all the way with that boy, can''t you just fulfill their wish?"
"I would rather let Lilith remain single for her life than allow her to marry a ''coward''." Zeus''s face was cold, and his attitude very resolute.
"Then tell me, what''s your criterion for a son-inw? To what extent must that boy grow for you to ept him?" Hera, standing on Lilith''s side, sought to probe his thoughts.
Zeus pondered for a while, nced at her, and said ndly:
"Unless that boy possesses the strength and capability on par with the God of ughter."
"To match the Celestial Gods with a mortal''s frame!"
"Otherwise, there''s nothing to discuss."
Hera: "..."
She sighed, feeling utterly at a loss.
The God of ughter?
Unlike others, being the Divine King and Divine Queen, they were acutely aware.
In the battle between the Sun God Apollo and the God of ughter, Apollo narrowly lost.
Before the God of ughter''s sudden emergence, the twelve Celestial Gods held an absolute ruling position in the Western Dark World, never having any defeat.
Even the lowest ranked, the Sun God Apollo, boasted an absolutely undefeated record among the twelve Celestial Gods.
The God of ughter, with a mortal''s frame, shattered the twelve Celestial Gods'' undefeated record in the Western Dark World!
To possess such capability, aside from that now-reclusive elder of Huaxia, only the current God of ughter holds it.
For Lilith''s beloved to reach the level of the God of ughter is nearly impossible, akin to ascending to the heavens.
What Hera didn''t know was that Zeus insisted on such unreachable standards because he absolutely refused to let the boy who had angered him for years be his son-inw.
The power and capability of the God of ughter were not for just anyone.
Especially not for that "soft egg."
Zeus shifted the topic, saying solemnly:
"The Dragon Gate will never allow the Divine King Guard into Huaxia."
"Lilith won''t cancel her performance and return to the West; there''s only one solution left."
"The God of ughter currently resides in Huaxia, contact Apollo, get him to reach out to the God of ughter, and protect Lilith."
"Our Divine King Hall, owe the God of ughter a favor!"
Chapter 458 - 449: The Divine Kings Favor
Huaxia, Capital City, Li Corporation.
"Protect Lilith?"
Upon receiving this call from the West, Ye Huan went to thepany rooftop, frowning slightly.
"Yes, that old man Zeus said if you protect Lilith, he owes you a favor." The man''s voice on the other end was extremelyzy.
The Twelve Celestial Godsthe Seventh Celestial God, Apollo the Sun God!
"Are you sure Zeus wants me to protect Lilith?" Ye Huan''s lips curled up in a yful manner.
Apollo seemed to hear a different meaning in Ye Huan''s tone and twitched the corner of his mouth: "God of ughter, I advise you not to have any bad thoughts. If you and Lilith rekindle anything, I believe Zeus will hunt you down for miles."
In the West, Apollo was among the few who had seen the true face of the God of ughter and knew that the Divine King''s daughter Lilith was smitten with him.
"I never had anything with her, so how could we rekindle anything? Back then, Lilith drugged me with a hundred kilograms, I was... well, you know, I was forced." Ye Huan pursed his lips.
"How did such a good thing happen to you? I, Apollo, am no less handsome or charming than you. Why did Lilith drug you, but every time I see her, she gives me a cold face?" Apollo shouted, evidently very unconvinced.
"Doesn''t that already prove you''re far inferior to me?"
"Enough said, tell that old man Zeus, I''ll take the job."
Ye Huan said a word and hung up the phone.
Divine King Zeus, the absolute ruler of the Western Dark World!
His power unparalleled, shaking the world!
Including the world''s first great countryAmerica, the newly appointed leaders of all Western countries, will lead their aides to the gates of the Dark Holy City in the Alps, kneel, and revere the statue of Divine King Zeus pleading for his continued protection of the West.
Zeus''s favor... is very weighty!
As for protecting Lilith...
Brother Huan happens to be attending her concert, so secretly protecting her is just something on the side.
Since doing so can make Zeus owe him a favor, why not?
...
Li Corporation, employee cafeteria, executive box.
The so-called executive box was actually quite simple, with a square table and four chairs, surrounded by smooth marble walls.
"How about it, my sister''spany is impressive, right? Didn''t tell you before to avoid startling you." Su Qingqing, sitting on a chair, proudly linked her white arms with Ye Qiqing''s.
Ye Huan smiled but said nothing.
If Su Qingqing found out that he was Ye Qiqing''s actual brother and had "family" ties with thispany, she would definitely be shocked.
"And my sister, her figure is good, her face is beautiful, right? She''s the number one beauty in the Capital City." Su Qingqing said animatedly, suddenly warning: "But I have to remind you, you''d better not have any special thoughts about her, or her suitors, one spit from each could drown you."
Ye Huan rolled his eyes, if he could have any thoughts about his sister, that would really be worse than a beast.
As for Ye Qiqing.
A strange look flickered across his face.
Su Qingqing happened to see this and couldn''t help but frown, asking, "Qiqing, did he bully you?"
"No!" Ye Qiqing sounded guilty, suddenly speaking very loudly.
Su Qingqing looked skeptical but didn''t think much.
She knew Ye Huan wasn''t reckless, otherwise, she would have already won him over with her repeated advances.
The atmosphere at the dining table was rather strange.
A strangeness that couldn''t be exined.
"Ring, ring."
A mobile phone ringtone broke the strangeness.
Su Qingqing put down her chopsticks, took out her phone from her bag, and her face instantly turned cold when she saw the number.
Without even answering, she directly hung up.
Blocked, deleted the number entirely!
"Sis, why didn''t you pick up?" Ye Qiqing blinked her sparkling eyes.
"An annoying guy, not necessary to answer." Su Qingqing said.
Time flew by.
In the evening, Ye Huan drove a BMW Mini, carrying the twodies to the venue where Lilith''s concert was heldthe Bird''s Nest.
The Bird''s Nest, arge building specifically built for Huaxia''s first Olympics, shows how big Lilith''s concert is.
Along the way, Ye Qiqing, sitting in the back seat, found it hard to join in on the conversation in the front seat and felt terribly ufortable and envious.
After parking the car, the three of them walked towards the venue.
Just after the three had their tickets checked and entered, a man, 1.8 meters tall, wearing an Armani custom suit, shiny leather shoes, and a trendy middle-parted hairstyle, walked over with a smile.
He first nodded respectfully to Ye Qiqing, "Sister Qiqing."
"Nan Zhen? What are you doing here?" Ye Qiqing asked coldly.
Being the top leader in the Capital City''s elite circle, Ye Qiqing naturally knew the person in front of her.
A first-line family in Capital City, the third young master of the Nan FamilyNan Zhen, a notorious yboy, and one of Ye Qiqing''s little brothers.
"Sister Qiqing, I''m a special guest at today''s concert and will be coborating with Lilith on a program." As Nan Zhen spoke with a smile, he nced at Su Qingqing on the side, showing undisguised fervor in his eyes.
"You really struck it lucky." Ye Qiqing said nonchntly.
If anyone else had said such a thing about him, Nan Zhen would have been furious.
But Ye Qiqing was different; no matter how she scolded, Nan Zhen wouldn''t get angry, nor dare to, and could only smile awkwardly.
"Don''t block the way, move aside." Ye Qiqing impatiently waved.
"Sister Qiqing, actually, I have another matter to attend to this time."
Nan Zhen smiled, then seriously handed the bouquet of roses to Su Qingqing, "Qingqing, didn''t you like Lilith very much? I just spoke with Lilith''s assistant, Diana, and she agreed to get you an autographed photo from Lilith after the concert. It''s even possible to take a photo together."
Su Qingqing didn''t even nce at the roses, her face turning cold, "Step aside."
"Qingqing..."
"Step aside." This time, even before Su Qingqing could speak, Ye Qiqing coldly uttered two words.
Nan Zhen gritted his teeth and obediently moved to the side.
Su Qingqing was terribly annoyed, having just managed toe to a concert with Ye Huan, when annoying pests kept popping up one after another.
First Huang Zhiwen, now Nan Zhen.
Previously, after Huang Zhiwen was beaten by a one-eyed beggar, the phone call she received was from a coborator asking her to discuss a project.
The project owner was Nan CorporationNan Zhen.
But when she went to the tea house, Nan Zhen didn''t discuss the project at all and kept praising Su Qingqing''s beauty, expressing his fondness.
Su Qingqing was extremely annoyed and left after repeated warnings went unheeded, not knowing he would "ambush" at the concert venue.
What if Ye Huan misunderstood, misunderstood that she had something with another man...
Su Qingqing was terribly annoyed, getting angrier the more she thought, ring fiercely at Nan Zhen, and then walked inside with Ye Huan and Ye Qiqing.
At this moment, she was holding Ye Huan''s arm.
Nan Zhen''s brows turned cold, and he took out his phone, snapped a picture of Ye Huan, and then made a call.
"Find out the background of this man for me."
Chapter 459 - 450: Brother Huan with Weak Legs
"Hmm, why does that person look like Ye Huan!?"
Outside the venue, in the ticket queue, Tang Yao in a simple dress pointed at the entrance.
Zhang Huimin looked in the direction Tang Yao pointed and also thought the person resembled Ye Huan, but she shook her head, "You must be mistaken, little Ye... Ye Huan went out of town for business; how could he be in the Capital City."
Tang Yao nodded and withdrew her gaze, "Yeah, it''s probably just someone who looks simr..."
Meanwhile, at the back of the long ticket line, Li Luo furrowed her brow as she looked inside the venue, her expression changing slightly.
Ye Qiqing!
And her sworn sisterSu Qingqing!
The other man...
Why does he look so much like Dabao???
"Mom, what are you looking at?" Beside her, Liu Tianyun blinked and asked. She was wearing a little evening dress today that perfectly highlighted her exquisite face and hot figure.
"Oh, nothing."
Li Luo let out an awkwardugh and withdrew her gaze, but cold sweat was breaking out on her forehead.
On the left, there''s Su Qingqing, and on the right, there''s Ye Qiqing.
As a mother, Li Luo naturally felt very pleased with her son''s ''aplishments.''
But...
That''s not good!
If the main wife shows up, won''t it be an Asura field???
Li Luo quickly pulled out her phone and sent a WeChat message to Ye Qiqing.
"Is the man next to you Ye Huan?"
The reply she got was: "Yes."
Li Luo: "..."
She immediately felt that bringing Liu Tianyun to the concert was a bad decision.
Li Luo knew that Liu Tianyun actually had a certain level of tolerance for Ye Huan having other women.
Otherwise, she wouldn''t have looked at Ye Huan''s neck full of hickeys and pretended not to see them.
But...
This time is different!
This time, Ye Huan refused Liu Tianyun''s invitation to ''date'' with two other women!
Dabao, Dabao, you''re out there fooling around with other pretty women, and you don''t even give your mom a heads up!?
If you had given a heads up, your mom would definitely help cover for you!
What a fool!
Li Luo scolded silently in her heart, nced at Liu Tianyun, and sighed.
Things are as they are, there''s no other way, just take it one step at a time...
...
"What''s wrong with you?" In the front row of the venue, among fifteen supreme seats, Ye Huan sat in seat 6, with Su Qingqing and Ye Qiqing on either side.
Su Qingqing, noticing Ye Huan''s somewhat unnatural expression and trembling legs, thought he was having a sudden illness and asked worriedly.
"It''s nothing."
Ye Huan waved his hand casually.
"Really nothing? If something''s wrong, just say it, I''ll take you to the hospital," Su Qingqing said worriedly.
"Really nothing." Ye Huan tried his best to act like nothing was wrong.
"Alright then... but if something''s up, you have to tell me."
Su Qingqing put her hand on Ye Huan''s shoulder like a close buddy, making it seem like she was taking advantage.
Beside her, Ye Qiqing felt really jealous and bitter inside.
But she didn''t dare to show it.
A few secondster, Su Qingqing, with a look of reminiscence, eximed, "I''ve always just seen Lilith on video, seeing her in person this time, she''s really beautiful, like a fairy..."
Hearing this, Ye Huan''s legs got even weaker!
On the surface, he acted like nothing was wrong, but inwardly, he felt like his emotional field was being trampled by thousands of Divine Beasts!
He was thinking about secretly protecting Lilith, trying not to let her see him.
The VIP seats, the front row, indeed had a distance from the main stage.
Once the concert started, the lights would definitely dim, making it impossible for Lilith to spot him.
But human ns don''t always work out!
On the way from the seating area to the front row, they happened to run into Lilith!
What a coincidence!
Upon meeting, Ye Huan and Lilith both froze.
Soon, they both regained theirposure.
Lilith, seeing Ye Huan apanied by two women, suppressed her excitement but still secretly blew a kiss, her mouth curving into a breathtaking smile...
This smile was exactly like the one that once broke through Ye Huan''s defenses, making him submit in the past!
Just a few minutes after the drug''s effects faded, Zeus, the Divine King, led the guard to attack.
Ye Huan then fled on trembling legs, narrowly escaping with his life!
And now she spotted him again!
It''s over!
Recalling the events of that year, even while sitting in the best seat, Ye Huan felt his legs growing weak!
Chapter 460 - 451: Ten million, to buy your position!
Backstage at the venue, in the dressing room.
"Miss, please reconsider onest time, cancel this concert and return to the West." Diana pleaded earnestly.
In front of her, Lilith was sitting on a bench while several makeup artists worked on her makeup and hairstyle.
"I''ll say it onest time, no cancetion!"
"This concert is fantastic, it has helped me catch a big fish!"
"Also, cancel the singing and dancing segment of the concert and rece it with..."
Lilith waved her hand, signaling Diana toe closer, then whispered something into her ear with a sly smile on her lips.
The more Diana listened, the wider her eyes grew, and finally she eximed, "Absolutely not!"
"Why not? It''s my concert, I make the decisions, go and get it done." Lilith red at her.
Diana gritted her teeth, advising, "Miss, please reconsider. If you perform this, Lord Zeus and Lady Hera will be very, very angry!"
"I want them to be angry. Who told them to break up loving couples?"
"Miss, please think it over. This time, for the dance segment, I''ve carefully selected a partner for you, a person with the title of ''King of International Ballet,'' you can''t just dismiss him, it''s too disrespectful..."
"King of Ballet?" Lilith raised an eyebrow and said, "I''ll apologize to him afterward. In any case, he''s received quite a substantial fee from us for this coboration, at worst, we won''t take the money."
"But..."
"No buts, just go and get it done."
Lilith impatiently waved her hand.
Helpless, Diana had no choice but to step down.
She left the dressing room, stamping her foot anxiously with a worried look.
Hera had already informed her that the God of ughter would be present to ensure Lilith''s safety, with a Celestial God Level of protection, Lilith wouldn''t be in life-threatening danger.
But...
Lilith wants to perform "that kind of dance" in front of tens of thousands of live audience and millions more watching through television andputer screens?
Too outrageous!
If Zeus and Hera found out, they''d absolutely explode with anger!
But there''s nothing to be done!
Reporting it now would be toote, for now, she could only temporarily follow the youngdy''s wishes.
Diana felt a deep sense of helplessness, took out her phone and started to make a call to the originally designated dance partner.
But before she even finished dialing, her phone shut off.
No choice, she''ll have to apologize afterward, sigh!
Inside the dressing room, Lilith''s smile deepened, bright enough to eclipse any blossom.
This concert really has reeled in a big fish...
However, you big fish really know how to enjoy yourself. After leaving me, you even found two such beautiful women.
No worries.
I''ll see what expression you have when you take the stageter!
I''ll see how you wrap things up in the end!
A mischievous smile crept across Lilith''s lips.
...
"Nan Zhen, how many times do I have to tell you!"
"I really hate you!"
"Stop bothering me, alright!"
In the supreme VIP seat 5, Su Qingqing was fuming.
Nan Zhen, on the other hand, lookedpletely shameless, offering a bouquet of roses: "Qingqing, these roses were shipped over from Pu Perhentian in the Antic, they may not be expensive, but they cost 999,999 yuan, a token of my personal feelings. If you ept, I promise I won''t bother you anymore."
Su Qingqing''s eyes widened with anger. How could she possibly ept this bouquet?
Aside from Ye Huan sitting right next to her, even if he weren''t, Su Qingqing would never ept roses from such a pest.
"Get lost!" Su Qingqing retorted furiously.
"Qingqing, please ept this bouquet."
"I''ve seen your WeChat moments, thest dozen or so all rted to Lilith''s concert, so I know you really like her."
"If you take these roses, not only will I promise not to bother you, but I can also put in a good word with Lilith to get her to personally sign a photo for you, or even take a picture with you!"
Nan Zhen was not angry but rather persistent, attempting to persuade Su Qingqing to ept the flowers.
If Su Qingqing took the flowers, the guy next to her, Ye Huan, would surely be fuming with envy, giving Nan Zhen the perfect opportunity to mock his pettiness.
Unfortunately...
"Get lost!" Su Qingqing''s response remained filled with anger.
Nan Zhen was extremely annoyed.
He took a deep breath, looked at Ye Huan, and said, "Brother, may I ask if you can switch seats with me?"
"Why should I switch seats with you?" Ye Huan responded coolly.
"Shuffle shuffle shuffle."
Without another word, Nan Zhen pulled out a checkbook, quickly wrote down a string of numbers, tore it off, and handed it to Ye Huan with a cold voice, "A million, for buying your seat."
Chapter 461 - 452: Pushing into the fire pit?
"Nan Zhen, what do you mean by this?!" Su Qingqing raised her eyebrows in anger.
Beside her, Ye Qiqing also showed a furious look, ring fiercely at Nan Zhen, scaring him.
Nan Zhen''s face turned pale, not knowing how he offended Ye Qiqing, as he attempted to take back the check...
"Ten million? Is my seat that cheap?" Ye Huan said with a yful expression.
Is that too little?
Nan Zhen was stunned, then despite Ye Qiqing and Su Qingqing''s cold stares, he brazenly wrote another check, tore it off, and handed it to Ye Huan, "Here''s ny million, totaling one hundred million."
"A hundred million just to buy my seat? Offering such aid, you''re like a living Lei Feng in the Capital City." Ye Huanughed heartily as he epted the check.
"No problem, I''m just that kind-hearted." A strong hint of sarcasm shed in Nan Zhen''s eyes, "Buddy, now that you''ve got the money, the seat should be..."
"Of course, now that you''ve paid, I surely have to deliver," Ye Huan said with a squinting smile, standing up.
Both women looked puzzled, each grabbing one of his sleeves.
"Ye Huan, how could you do this? He buys your seat, and you sell it? Are you that short of money?"
"Exactly, Brother Ye, if you need money, I''ll transfer it to you. Ten billion or a hundred billion, I can transfer it all to you. Why would you yield to this guy?"
Ten billion or a hundred billion...
So wasteful!
"You don''t understand anything." Ye Huan snorted coldly with a dark face, shaking off the hands of the two women, "This hundred million is easy money. It''s a no-brainer deal, it has nothing to do with whether I''m short of money or not. Understand?"
"You..."
Both women''s faces turned unpleasant, and they absolutely refused to have Nan Zhen sit between them.
But there was no choice, as Ye Huan had already walked away.
Watching Ye Huan''s back as he walked towards seat 8, Nan Zhen couldn''t help but curl his lips in a mocking smile.
Just for a small sum of a hundred million, he sold the position between Su Qingqing and Ye Qiqing?
The position between the chairman of Li Corporation and the chairman''s secretary would be worth at least ten billion if auctioned outside!
Because it was a chance to win the favor of the two top executives of Li Corporation and also two goddesses!
This kid doesn''t know his blessing, selling the position for such a small amount...
A country bumpkin from Celestial Sea has such limited vision.
Nan Zhen''s mocking smile grew wider.
Just ten minutes ago, he had used the power of the Nan Family to obtain all avable information on Ye Huan.
Ye Huan was the husband of Liu Tianyun, the eldest daughter of one of the four major families in Celestial Sea.
Vice President and head of security at Tianyun International.
And he found out that Su Qingqing once worked at Tianyun International, holding the position of head of the sales department.
This concert supreme VIP seat ticket was also given to him by Su Qingqing.
With a little thought, Nan Zhen guessed that Su Qingqing had an office romance with this guy named Ye Huan, and even aftering to the Capital City, she missed him so much that she invited him to the concert to rekindle their rtionship.
The rtionship between Su Qingqing and this guy must be very close and loving!
But so what?
For a small benefit, Ye Huan sold his seat, which would certainly make Su Qingqing detest him.
In that case, his opportunity, Nan Zhen''s, had arrived!
Haha!
Nan Zhen smiled broadly, tidying the cor of his tailcoat before sitting down in seat six with a smirk.
At the same time, he shook his head left and right, ncing at Su Qingqing and Ye Qiqing, with a lecherous gleam in his eyes.
Sitting between these two top beauties and enjoying the heavenly voice of World Celestial Queen Lilith... what an indulgence, haha!
Not only enjoying it but also letting the two women see clearly this guy''s greed, haha!
This hundred million was well spent!
Su Qingqing and Ye Qiqing looked livid, unable to understand why Ye Huan wanted to swap ces.
Wasn''t he pushing them into a fire pit!
"Ladies, you can go now."
Chapter 462 - 453: The Concert Opens
Suddenly, two voices rang out simultaneously.
The two women were startled.
Nan Zhen was also taken aback.
"Ladies, aren''t you going to switch seats? Are you or aren''t you?" Seeing the two women not moving, two middle-aged men in suits looked puzzled.
Switch seats?
The two women looked to the right.
They saw Ye Huan smiling, gesturing for them to go over.
The expressions on the two women''s faces instantly became quite colorful, and they got up to sit in seats 9 and 10.
Ye Huan sat in seat 8, on Su Qingqing''s left.
"How did you get them to switch seats with us?"
Both women asked in unison, echoing the question in Nan Zhen''s mind.
"Seats 5 and 7 naturally have better views. I also gave each of them five million. Unless they''re fools, they''d definitely agree to switch."
With Ye Huan''s words, the expressions on the women''s faces became even more colorful.
Five million each, that''s ten million! Ye Huan must have used the first check from Nan Zhen.
Nan Zhen''s face turned purple, feeling as if he''d swallowed a fly.
Originally, there were fairies on either side of him, but now, there were two middle-aged men. Who could stand that?
Also, this kid pulled off this move, making a gain of ny million!
Nan Zhen was furious, on the brink of exploding.
"One hundred million each. Promise me you won''t switch seats with that kidter!" Nan Zhen, in a fit of rage, wrote two checks and handed them to the middle-aged men on either side.
The two men were somewhat dumbstruck.
Why is there so much money being handed out these days?
"No problem." The two men dly epted the checks. They certainly weren''t short of money, having secured the Supreme VIP tickets, but they weren''t going to refuse a hundred million offered right to them.
Nan Zhen, gritting his teeth, walked over to Ye Huan, wrote another check for a hundred million, and angrily said:
"A hundred million, go to seat 6!"
"Sorry, not interested." Ye Huan shrugged.
"Damn it, are you freeloading nine million from me? I''ll kill you..."
Nan Zhen realized he had been tricked, burning with rage.
However...
Ye Qiqing''s cold, piercing gaze instantly scared him into swallowing back his curse words.
With nowhere to vent his anger, Nan Zhen felt like he''d swallowed ten flies, incredibly ufortable, but obediently sat back in seat 6, sandwiched between the two middle-aged men.
This is miserable!
Originally, he was at least sitting next to Ye Qiqing.
Now, after spending three hundred million, he ended up between two middle-aged men!
This is like shooting oneself in the foot!
Nan Zhen was almost exploding with anger!
So pissed!
Grinding his teeth, he pulled out his phone and sent a barrage of messages to Su Qingqing.
Su Qingqing opened her WeChat and saw Nan Zhen''s messages.
"Qingqing, what''s the point of sticking with that pretty boy? He''s just the Liu Family''s son-inw, nothingpared to my status as the Nan Family''s third young master!"
"Think about it. If you stick with him, you can at most be his mistress, but with me, you can be the legitimate wife of me, Nan San Shao!"
"I can give you everything you want - money, status, background! Including Lilith''s autograph, or even a picture together with Lilith. To go further, even dining with Lilith is possible!"
"I''ve been selected as Lilith''s backup dancer for this concert, and I''ll surely be in the spotlight. As long as you agree to be with me, after the dance, I''ll introduce you to the whole audience, letting you bask in the otherwise unattainable glory!"
Reading through these messages, Su Qingqing was enraged, typing furiously in the message box: "Go to hell!"
Finished typing, she hit send!
Blocked!
Su Qingqing blocked all contact with Nan Zhen.
Seeing the reply, Nan Zhen''s face turned a mix of green and blue, as he sent: "Can''t you reconsider if it really won''t work?"
But all he saw was a red exmation mark. Blocked!
He was thoroughly pissed.
When has he, Nan San Shao, ever been treated like this?
If it weren''t for Su Qingqing having the connection as Ye Qiqing''s secretary, he wouldn''t be persistently doting like a sycophant.
This Su Qingqing, truly ungrateful!
She''d rather be the mistress of a pretty boy than the wife of a first-tier family heir!
Nan Zhen took a deep breath, suppressed his rage, as a trace of malice shed in his eyes.
He decided that after the dance, he would publicly curse out Ye Huan on stage, humiliating him in front of everyone!
He also decided that during the dance to Lilith''s song, he''d showcase his greatest charm to conquer Su Qingqing''s heart!
A backwoods son-inw from Celestial Sea dares to cross me, Nan Zhen? Court death!
Once the dance is over, you''ll be looking for a hole to crawl into, but won''t find a ce!
"Ye Huan, don''t mind him. I...I have nothing to do with him, he''s just so annoying!" On the side, Su Qingqing was afraid Ye Huan would misunderstand, hurriedly exining, furious.
She wished she could p Nan Zhen to death.
Finally having an "outing" with Ye Huan, this annoying fly keeps buzzing non-stop, making her furious!
"What''s his deal?" Ye Huan asked.
"The third young master of the Nan family, named Nan Zhen, he''s supposedly some superstar of the world ballet association, known as the ''King of Ballet''."
"It''s unclear what dumb luck he had to score a gig as Lilith''s backup dancer."
Su Qingqing said discontentedly.
After a pause, she reassured: "Ye Huan, don''t worry. The Nan family''s power is decent, butpared to Qiqing, it''s nothing. He definitely won''t dare to retaliate against you."
"Right." Ye Qiqing nodded. On the surface, she appeared calm, but inside, a trace of murderous intent shed.
Nan Zhen dares to treat Brother Ye with such hostility? He''s asking for it!
Ye Qiqing was even considering what would be a good way for Nan Zhen to meet his end.
Ye Huan just smiled it off, indifferent to it.
If Nan Zhen was tired of living, Brother Huan wouldn''t mind sending him off.
...
Half an hourter, the bird''s nest, capable of holding tens of thousands, was packed to the brim, with almost every seat upied by spectators.
The attendance rate during the Olympics was never as overwhelming as this.
The size of Lilith''s fan base was evident!
At this moment, the lights in the venue had dimmed, leaving only a few lights on the main stage.
A blonde woman in a red evening gown stepped onto the stage with a microphone, smiling: "Hello everyone, I am Diana, the host for tonight''s concert. The concert is about to begin, please wee Miss Lilith!"
"..."
After a moment of silence, the audience burst into enthusiastic apuse!
"Bang!!!"
The sound of several ceremonial cannons fired simultaneously.
"Swish! Swish! Swish!"
Eight spotlights illuminated the center of the main stage, focusing on the slowly rising tform adorned with falling streamers!
On the tform stood a woman with a microphone!
At this moment, she was the focus of the entire venue!
Chapter 463 - 454: What a Coincidence!
The woman slightly lowered her head, with a petite oval face, her long eyshes tightly covering a pair of bright blue eyes. Her nose was delicate and straight, and her small cherry lips were pink and tender. A cascade of golden curls draped over her shoulders like a waterfall.
The silver-white evening gown revealed her fragrant shoulders and long, beautiful legs. Her crystal-clear skin glowed with an alluring flush, with white over-the-knee socks clinging to her slender legs, showing off her exquisite figure perfectly.
The few transparent ice crystal ribbons fluttering in the air from the hem of her gown made her look even more like a real fairy!
No, she is a fairy!
"Lilith! Lilith! Lilith!"
"Lilith! Lilith! Lilith!"
"Lilith! Lilith! Lilith!"
The fans in the audience waved their glow sticks and shouted enthusiastically, creating a scene that could only be described as a tidal wave of sound!
Seeing Lilith''s fairy-like face and figure with their own eyes, many fans were so excited they burst into tears!
On the Supreme VIP seats, the two middle-aged men in suits on seats 5 and 7 were also crying while cheering.
Damn, who are these people sitting next to me, why are they so excited!
Nan Zhen cursed.
Ye Huan was slightly better, but still felt a shiver down his spine!
He shivered not because of the middle-aged men on seats 5 and 7, but because
"Lilith! Lilith!"
The excited female voices from seats 8 and 9 in the Super VIP area, right behind Ye Huan, caught his attention!
Very familiar female voices!
Tang Yao!
Zhang Huimin!
When did these two arrive!
ncing back quickly, Ye Huan immediately turned his head around, eyes wide with panic.
Was Zhang Huimin''s "date" at Tianyun International actually meant to be at Lilith''s concert!?
If she finds out he came with Su Qingqing to see Lilith''s concert instead of being on an "official trip" out of town as an excuse to skip the date
The consequences would be unimaginable!
"Lilith! Lilith..."
Su Qingqing shouted excitedly for several minutes and thenpletely ran out of strength.
Breathless, she suddenly noticed
There were still two empty seats in this row of Supreme VIPs.
And they were right next to Ye Qiqing on the right.
"That''s really strange, why are those seats still empty? Supreme VIP seats were going for fifteen billion each and were sold out," Su Qingqing murmured.
Ye Huan nodded, also bewildered by this.
If they weren''t true fans of Lilith, how could they spend so much money to get the Supreme VIP tickets?
And true fans wouldn''t skip the concert, right?
It was indeed strange.
Suddenly, Ye Huan frowned.
Having fought long in the Western Dark World, his perception of danger far exceeded that of ordinary people.
Looking to the right.
"Just in time, barely made it for the opening!" Two women jogged to seats 11 and 12.
Seeing a man staring at them, the two women immediately turned cold.
But upon seeing the man''s face
They froze on the spot!
One of the women sent Ye Huan a "good luck" look and sat in seat 11.
The other woman continued to lock eyes with Ye Huan and remained frozen!
......No way!!!
As Ye Huan''s eyes met Liu Tianyun''s, his eyes nearly popped out.
A hundred thousand Divine Beasts furrowed the green pasture in his heart over and over, and it wasn''t enough, they continued plowing!
```
Chapter 464 - 455: Lucky Audience
Ye Huan''s unusual behavior was also noticed by Su Qingqing and Ye Qiqing.
They followed Ye Huan''s gaze and were momentarily stunned.
Liu Tianyun!
Su Qingqing felt a pang of guilt, cold sweat dripping from her forehead. Is this the rightful wifeing to catch an affair?
Ye Qiqing also felt a bit guilty and turned her head aside.
In that nce, she saw Lilu.
"Mom, why are you here too?" Ye Qiqing asked in a low voice.
"Oh, don''t even mention it, let''s just watch the concert," Lilu said helplessly.
It wasn''t just Ye Huan and Su Qingqing!
In the back row, Tang Yao and Zhang Huimin also paused when they saw Liu Tianyun.
Recovering from the shock, they quickly followed Liu Tianyun''s gaze, looking towards the front row.
Ye Huan!
Just as we thought when we saw that figure at the ticket check, it really was him!
And sitting beside him... is Su Qingqing!?
He turned down my date invitation toe "date" another woman?
For a moment, Zhang Huimin, who rarely got angry from childhood to adulthood, was truly red in the face with anger.
Tang Yao was the same, looking furious.
On the way here, she found out from Zhang Huimin about her rtionship with Ye Huan and also knew that Ye Huan had to go "out of town for business," so he couldn''t "date" Zhang Huimin, and that''s why Zhang Huimin invited her to the concert together.
Now it seems, Ye Huan did go out of town for business!
He came to out of town to "date" another woman!
How despicable!
In an instant, the area around the esteemed VIP section 9 was filled with a thick tension!
"Did youe here with them?" Liu Tianyun took a deep breath, nced at Su Qingqing and Ye Qiqing, and asked in a stern voice.
"I..."
"No, we ran into each other by chance. President Liu, please don''t misunderstand!" Su Qingqing quickly covered for Ye Huan.
Liu Tianyunpletely ignored it. She took another deep breath, suppressing the fire in her heart as she sat down.
Coming to handle affairs meanting out of town to date his other women?
Liu Tianyun clenched her teeth hard, producing a "crack" sound. The surrounding temperature plummeted to freezing point, causing many people to shiver.
Next to him, feeling an angry gaze and an extremely resentful one shot from behind, Ye Huan almost cried out loud.
What kind of situation is this!
One Lilith was not enough, now Zhang Huimin and Tang Yao are here, and that''s not enough, Liu Tianyun and Lilu are here too!
Does it have to be this outrageous!
During the ten-odd minutes that the women were ring at Ye Huan, Lilith had already finished singing two popr songs, greatly elevating the atmosphere of the venue.
The fans were highly enthusiastic, repeatedly breaching the decibel limit with their shouts, many had even shouted their voices hoarse but continued shouting!
"Lilith!!!!!!"
"Lilith, I love you!!!!!"
"Lilith, marry me, I love you!!!!"
The fans shouted until their voices were hoarse.
Some even got so excited that they fainted on the spot.
During these ten-plus minutes, more than a dozen ambnces had arrived, carrying away the dozen or so fans who had fainted from overexcitement.
As another song by Lilith concluded.
The main stage lights brightened.
"Next, Miss Lilith is going to perform a special program that requires the participation of one audience member!"
"This audience member will have the honor to dance with Miss Lilith!"
On the main stage, Diana smiled and raised her hand in the air, "Let''s see who the lucky audience member will be!"
As she finished speaking, the main stage lights went out.
More than a dozen spotlights began sweeping across the audience seats.
The lights were blinding, yet no one closed their eyes!
Everyone wore expressions of anticipation and hope, and some even shouted out:
"Pick me, pick me, Miss Lilith, choose me!!!"
"If Miss Lilith chooses you, she must be blind, it''s me she should pick!"
"I''m willing to trade ten years of my brother''s life for a chance to dance with Miss Lilith!!!"
"Dude, whose life are you trading!?!?"
Chapter 465 - 456: Dance Together
The scene was chaotic for a time.
You couldn''t really me the fans for being so frenzied.
Lilith''s fan base, worldwide, was at least 150 million!
Out of these 150 million, 100 million are men, and Lilith is the dream goddess of these 100 million men!
An unattainable goddess!
Now, with the chance to dance with her, how could the men on-site not go crazy!?
It''s no exaggeration to say that even if they had to trade ten years of their life for a chance to dance with Lilith, they would do so without hesitation!
No, not even just dancing, just shaking hands briefly, to trade ten years of life for that, they still wouldn''t hesitate.
The stature of a World Celestial Queen is just that heavy!
Most importantly, if one could have contact with Lilith, even just a handshake, that would put one above the other hundred million men, and the face that''d give is immeasurable!
Even tens of millions of audiences watching the live broadcast at home were green with envy, regretting not being there in person.
Understand that Lilith''s past concerts have never given fans a chance to approach her!
Who could be that lucky person, able to have such intimate contact as dancing with Lilith!
One in a hundred million!
Almost no one could tell who the lucky person would be.
But one person, "had some idea"!
Ye Huan''s heart skipped fiercely when he heard Diana''s words, feeling a surge of anxiety.
He had already sped his hands together in his heart, praying that Lilith wouldn''t add fuel to the fire, making things more difficult for him.
And another person, who was also "very clear"!
Nan Zhen in seat number 6, front row of Supreme VIPs, straightened his tailsuit cor with a face full of self-satisfaction.
For some reason, what was originally a simple dance apaniment had changed to a dance with Lilith.
But how could he refuse the chance to have an intimate encounter with the World Celestial Queen? Not only would it boost his prestige, but it would also stir up jealousy and envy amongst billions of men!
And most importantly.
Nan Zhen''s lips curled into a cunning smile.
Dancing with Lilith would surely garner immense attention.
That way, he could publicly denounce Ye Huan on stage, rebuking him, making him ashamed to the point of wanting to disappear, haha!
Furthermore, if he performed well, he might even win a chance for a photo with Lilith or even a meal together...
Then, he''d have the leverage to steadily persuade Su Qingqing, eventually making her sing conqueringly on her knees.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became.
Nan Zhen looked at Su Qingqing, proudly grinning, "Qingqing, did you hear that? Lilith is going to dance with me. If you take this bouquet of roses from me, not to mention an autograph, I might even get you a chance to take a photo with her."
"Get lost!"
Su Qingqing said one word, making Nan Zhen''s expression darken.
But he quickly calmed himself.
In a moment, he''d have physical contact and a dance with their dream goddess in front of tens of millions or even a billion viewers. He had to show his best state, and make them super envious to the extreme.
As for Su Qingqing?
No rush,ter he would confess to her under the gaze of all, and the audience would surely jeer her into agreeing.
She would be in a dilemma, eventually epting under pressure!
At that time, he would then reprimand Ye Huan, using him of interfering in others'' rtionships, making the audience heavily criticize him, surely making him blush with anger, unable to find a ce to hide!
""
Several minutes passed, the spotlight still hadn''t stopped, shing here and there within the audience.
The reason was that Diana still wanted to give Lilith onest piece of advice!
On the main stage, Diana turned off the microphone, walked beside Lilith in the darkness, took a deep breath, and anxiously said, "Miss, there''s still a chance to turn back now. If Lord Zeus and Lady Hera find out that you''re performing ''that kind of dance'' with a man in public, they will explode with anger!"
Chapter 466 - 457: Liliths Steel Pipe
"Hurry up and do it!" Lilith red at her, her attitude unusually resolute.
After trying to persuade her a few more times, it was to no avail.
Diana knew she couldn''t argue with Lilith, so she had no choice but to grit her teeth andply.
She returned to the edge of the stage, her gaze slightly focused, looking at the Supreme VIP seat number 9, wanting to see who exactly was capable of making Lilith treat him like a pole!
At the same time, she raised the microphone with a smile and said, "Next, let''s have Miss Lilith call a stop and reveal this lucky audience member!"
"Miss Lilith, choose me!!!!"
There was another round of hoarse, hysterical shouting from the audience.
"Swoosh!"
A beam of light shone down on the main stage.
In the center of the light, Lilith''s figure reappeared before the audience.
She raised her slender white left hand, holding a microphone in her right, smiling with her rosy lips slightly parted.
In an instant, the dozen or so beams of light shing among the audience sped up, bing even more dazzling!
The fans grew more excited.
The one in a billion lucky audience member was about to be revealed!
In the Supreme VIP seat number 6, Nan Zhen put down his crossed legs, straightened his cor, and wore a smug expression.
He, Nan Zhen, was about to be the lucky winner!
The lucky winner that over a billion men envy!
"Stop!" With Lilith''smand,
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"
One spotlight after another extinguished.
Several secondster, only one spotlight remained on the audience!
The person at the very center of this light was the lucky one to dance with Lilith!
In an instant, everyone''s gaze focused on this lucky person.
That is, Supreme VIPseat number 9!
The scene was in an uproar!
On the main stage, the corner of Lilith''s mouth lifted into a yful smile.
After seeing who was seated in seat number 9, Diana''s eyes widened, filled with shock. She finally understood why Lilith was so determined to change the song and dance performance into a pole dance performance!
This man, wasn''t he the one who disappeared after winning over Lilith?!
"Miss, you''re purposely trying to anger Lord Zeus and Lady Hera..."
Before Diana could finish, she was silenced by a sharp look from Lilith.
Lilith slightly parted her red lips, cleared her throat, and with her extremely sweet voice, said:
"Next, my performance will be: Sex Pole Dance."
"Due to the spontaneous nature of the performance, there''s no pole on stage."
"May I invite this lucky audience member toe on stage to substitute as the ''pole'' for my performance."
After speaking, a mischievous smile appeared on Lilith''s pretty face, and she gestured a ''please'' toward seat number 9 of Supreme VIP.
"......"
The whole venue fell silent.
The fans'' excited shouts came to an abrupt halt.
Sex Pole Dance!?
Lilith, who is practically a goddess, is going to perform such a hot dance!?!?!?
And have a man cooperate with her, serving as her pole!?!
For a moment, the fans in the audience were filled with grief and indignation, feeling their hair turning a vivid green.
The goddess in their hearts, is actually letting another man be the pole, to cooperate with her in performing a pole dance, and it''s of the hottest Sex level!?!?
Goddess, why are you doing this!
You''re deliberately putting a green hat on your male fans!
The piercing gazes of tens of thousands of fans simultaneously swept toward seat number 9 in the first row, with a look as if they wanted to swallow him whole.
Seeing the hint of a mischievous smile at the corner of Lilith''s mouth, Ye Huan''s face turned dark as ink, his mouth twitching.
Lilith was watching themotion, not afraid of stirring up trouble, deliberately adding fuel to the fire!
Chapter 467 - 458: Hes going to turn Moms idol into Moms daughter-in-laws rhythm!
Beside him, Ye Qiqing and Su Qingqing looked at Ye Huan, their eyes almost popping out.
Isn''t this a mistake? The odds of one in a billion, and it happened to fall on Ye Huan!?
Something''s off!
Su Qingqing and Ye Qiqing''s expressions changed slightly, remembering that when they bumped into Lilith upon entering the venue, Ye Huan was very uneasy!
Could it be... he''s an old acquaintance of Lilith!?
If not, how do you exin the initially nned dance performance suddenly being changed to Sex Pole Dance,
and the originally set dance partner Nan Zhen suddenly being reced by Ye Huan!?
Moreover, Lilith, whether in TV shows, movies, or concerts, has never had any physical contact with men.
And today? She''s going to perform a Sex Pole Dance with Ye Huan!
This indicates... Ye Huan must have an extraordinary rtionship with her!
Thinking of this, Su Qingqing and Ye Qiqing both felt pangs of jealousy.
And it wasn''t just them; even Lilu and others quickly thought of it too.
Beside them, Lilu almost cried out "wow" in emotional joy.
Too impressive, Dabao is just too impressive!
Even the World Celestial Queen Lilith is his!
He''s on the way to turning his mom''s idol into his mom''s daughter-inw!
To the right of Lilu, Liu Tianyun almost passed out from anger.
Su Qingqing.
Ye Qiqing.
Plus Zhang Huimin and Tang Yao in the back seats.
And now there''s Li Ying, who didn''t even attend.
Now outes Lilith too, the World Celestial Queen no less, and she can be linked to him.
How many women does he have in the end!
Is he nning to build a modern-day harem!
Three thousand beauties, is that enough???
Liu Tianyun clenched her teeth, her pink fists tightly held, her eyes burning with even more intense fire.
At the same time, in front of the radiant Lilith, she truly felt a sense of defeat, a strong sense of defeat.
This defeat made her feel powerless.
So many women, so many women no less inferior to her, Liu Tianyun, all like Ye Huan, whatpetitive edge does she have?
In the back seat, Zhang Huimin''s teeth ttered with anger, and Tang Yao shared her enmity.
Feeling the increasingly resentful gaze from behind, Ye Huan indeed didn''t burst out crying "wow."
"Kill the European king, snatch Lilith!!!"
After a moment of silence.
The fans on site once again raised their arms and shouted, a tidal wave of envy, jealousy, and hatred crashing overwhelmingly, the waves growing louder and louder.
They, along with tens of millions of viewers watching the live broadcast, were envious and jealous to the extreme, wishing they could just chop this kid up!
The dream goddess of over a hundred million men, the invible goddess, is going to touch this kid, is going to take this kid as a pole!
This kid is stepping on over a hundred million men''s heads ah!
This is putting a "green hat" on over a hundred million men ah!
This is a blessing umted from ten generations of forefathers ah!
"Wait!!!!"
Suddenly, a roar sounded.
Nan Zhen mmed the chair and pointed at Ye Huan, angrily saying, "Kid, you nned this, right? Cheating me out of my spot, right!?"
Ye Huan didn''t bother with a pleasant expression, coldly saying, "Cheat you out of your spot? Wasn''t it you who wanted to swap with me?"
"Don''t talk so much nonsense!"
Nan Zhen naturally knew that Ye Huan couldn''t have set him up, after all, he was the one who offered the seat swap, and it cost him three hundred million.
But he just couldn''t take it!
The three hundred million spent ended up with him sitting between two middle-aged men.
Let that be!
But then Ye Huan ended up being Lilith''s dance partner, shattering all his ns!
Let that be too!
But Lilith changed the performance to what? Sex Pole Dance!
Ye Huan? He''ll perform the Sex Pole Dance as her partner!
Act as her pole, letting her perform the dance on him!
Originally, that seat was his, the one basking in this glory should be him!
Moreover, Lilith was also Nan Zhen''s dream lover, but he never dared to entertain too many fantasies about her, at most fantasizing about shopping and having a meal with her, attracting envy from others!
Ye Huan? He''s going to have direct physical contact with her!
Nan Zhen only felt that the hair on his head turned into a vast green meadow, with Grey Wolf catching sheep on it!
"If you know what''s good for you, just get lost!"
"This ce is mine!"
"If you don''t recognize the situation, I don''t mind finding someone to take care of you!"
As Nan Zhen thought more and more angrily, he pointed at Ye Huan''s nose with a slew of curses.
Although the women had someints about their man, how could they let an outsider insult him?
In an instant, several murderous gazes were cast at Nan Zhen, making him feel as if he were plummeting into an ice cave.
Among those murderous gazes was also that of Ye Qiqing, his big sister''s share.
But he chose to ignore it!
Because of the "hate of stealing a wife," it''s irreconcble ah!
Chapter 468 - 459: The clown turns out to be himself!
"Ye Huan, hurry up and get out of here, give up the seat to me..."
"What kind of nonsense is that, dare to shout one more word and get out of my concert venue!"
Before Nan Zhen could continue his tirade.
Lilith, who had never shown anger in front of the camera, snapped furiously, her face truly turning ashen, with eyes ring wide!
Nan Zhen''s face turned anxious, his gaze shifted to the main stage, and he shouted, "Miss Lilith, I was the original dance partner you agreed on, my previous seat was number 9, which was changed to number 6, sorry for not informing you beforehand!"
As he spoke, he pulled out a crumpled ticket, with seat number 9 on it.
Indeed, he thought the spotlight hitting seat 9 was because Lilith''s team knew this was the seat of the original dance partner.
But he happened to swap seats with Ye Huan, and Lilith''s team didn''t know, leading to such a huge mistake.
"What, are you questioning our choice of a lucky audience member as being prearranged?" Lilith said coldly.
"I... I didn''t." Nan Zhen gritted his teeth and said, "Miss Lilith, I''m just saying I was the original dance partner you agreed on, I even received the remuneration."
"Indeed, the remuneration was given."
"But, you were only the original dance partner for a singing and dance act."
"Now that the program has changed to a pole dance, do you still want to be my dance partner?" Lilith maintained a cold sneer.
"I..."
Not wanting to is a lie, but so many people were watching, he couldn''t show it.
Nan Zhen''s throat bobbed twice and he said, "Miss Lilith, what I meant is you might really be mistaken, I was the one finalized with Miss Diana to be your dance partner..."
"To be my Lilith''s pole, did you look in the mirror to see if you are qualified?!"
Lilith didn''t give him any face, directly cursing out loud.
Instantly, the fans all turned their attention to Nan Zhen.
"Shameless, did you check yourself in the mirror to see if you''re worthy?!"
"Looking like that, Miss Lilith could have chosen you as a pole? She must be blind or something!"
"Hurry up and stop embarrassing yourself standing there!"
The fans, without a second thought,unched into a tirade of curses against him.
What a joke, this guy thinks it''s not enough that they got "betrayed" once, he wants a second round!
Already they were trampled by the guy in seat 9, now this guy wants to step on them too, how could they tolerate this?
"Young man, one must have self-awareness. Your behavior is simply aiming too highdaydreaming!"
The middle-aged men in suits in seats 5 and 7 timely added a metaphorical stab.
Nan Zhen was furious, his lungs felt like they would explode.
"Let me tell you!"
"The lucky audience member was indeed chosen by me!"
"And let me inform you, don''t think receiving a hundred million from me means you get to be my dance partner; do you think I''d shortchange you on money?!"
"I changed the performance from a singing and dancing act to Sex Pole Dance just for him!"
"And you, not worthy!"
Lilith, in front of the global audience, yelled with the demeanor of a spoiled rich girl, quite unsatisfied with her expression.
The world was in an uproar!
Countless men, with red eyes, were insanely jealous of the man in seat 9!
But, their underlying "sourness" actually reduced quite a lot.
Lilith always came across as an untouchable fairy.
Now though? A domineering rich girl!
More rtable!
After all, a fairy doesn''t fall for mortal affairs; a domineering rich girl has to marry someone, right?
Moreover, a fairy-like woman such as Lilith should be domineering, should possess whatever she desires!
She should be pampered!
"And you, not worthy!"
Lilith''s scornful words echoed repeatedly in Nan Zhen''s mind, making his face flush, wanting to find a hole to hide in.
He was truly furious and aggrieved.
Lilith had changed the singing and dancing act to Sex Pole Dance specifically for this guy!
The spotlight selection had nothing to do with seats!
Get on stage and, under the watching eyes of so many, ridicule Ye Huan, take down Su Qingqing?
He was actually performing like a clown under everyone''s gaze!
Lose facepletely!
Face? All the face was Ye Huan''s now!
Ye Huan, this guy, had "betrayed" over a billion men!
This guy, had a chance to win the favor of a goddess whom over a billion men dream of yet can''t taint!
Among those billion men, including him, Nan Zhen!
Nan Zhen was utterly aggrieved, as if consuming something vile, keeping his head down and covering his ears, too afraid to look at Lilith, even less willing to hear the repeated jeers from the audience.
He, the third young master of the Nan family, when had he ever suffered like this?!
On the surface he received the remuneration.
But to be Lilith''s dance partner, he had poured out ten times that amount of money!
Spent the money, yet fed flies!?
And then in front of millions, became a clown?
This anger, he couldn''t swallow!
In Nan Zhen''s eyes shed a glint of resentment.
Chapter 469 - 460: The West has 12 Celestial Gods, shall we arrange 12 concubines for you?
"Get on stage, move it!" Lilith said impatiently, looking at Ye Huan.
In the end, Ye Huan had no choice. With a dark expression, he stepped onto the main stage under the murderous res of Su Qingqing and the others.
He had to go on stage. Who was Lilith? The daughter of the Divine King and Queen, the grand princess of the Dark World!
If her temper red, she might add fuel to the fire and expose all of Ye Huan''s embarrassing past in front of the entire audience.
If that happened, Ye Huan would suffer a social death for sure!
Social death wasn''t the issue; the most important thing was that Zhang Huimin might discover his embarrassing past!
There was no other choice but topromise temporarily under the murderous looks of the women and "obey" Lilith.
After stepping onto the main stage, Ye Huan became Lilith''s "personal dance pole!"
That''s right, the so-called cooperation was to be Lilith''s dance pole!
The performance began, and all the lights in the venue went out.
The only thing that lit up again was a pink spotlight.
Apanied by deafening DJ music, Lilith treated Ye Huan as a dance pole, constantly performing standard pole dance moves.
With her almond-shaped eyes closed and her swan-like white neck swinging high, her wavy golden hair kept flying in the air.
The audience couldn''t believe this was Lilith!
They couldn''t believe this was the goddess in their hearts, untouched by the mortal world!
But there was no choice. They had to force themselves to change thebel of Lilith in their hearts from fairy to domineering princess.
Otherwise, they couldn''t ept it. They couldn''t ept the fairy Lilith disying such a posture in front of this man. It was too sinful; no one could bear it!
If Lilith was a fairy before.
Now she was a sultry beauty snake!
The audience below and in the live broadcast room watched tirelessly, gritting their teeth, wishing they could get rid of that guy and take his ce.
This guy was enjoying blessings that billions of men couldn''t even imagine He must have umted fortunes for eighteen generations!
...
In the West, within the Dark Holy City, Divine King Hall.
"Pfft!!!"
Seeing the performance on television, and Diana making "strange gestures" to the live camera, Divine King Zeus, overwhelmed with anger, spat out a mouthful of blood, his face livid.
Beside him, Hera let out a profound sigh.
She naturally could understand Diana''s signnguage.
"This man is the one who captured Miss back then!"
...
"Lilith, what exactly are you trying to do!" In the center of the main stage, Ye Huan whispered a question.
As Lilith danced, she mischievously smiled and said, "This littledy just wants to dance a song with you."
"Speak properly," Ye Huan said through gritted teeth.
"Alright, alright, actually, I just want to give those two Eastern beauties next to you a surprise, and it''s a little surprise for you too..."
"Surprise? This is purely a shock. You''re pushing me into the fire pit, don''t you know!" Ye Huan interrupted Lilith decisively, gritting his teeth.
"I know." Lilith''s mischievous smile grew wider, "I just want to see how you will deal with itter. Besides those two women you met before, there''s another one on your right, two more behind you, making a total of five beauties, right? And I guess they don''t know about each other''s existence, just happened to meet here, am I right?"
Ye Huan clenched his teeth even tighter, "They''re not ''beauties,'' but you know they know me. Why are you meddling and adding fuel to the fire? Are you afraid I won''t die fast enough!"
"I can''t help it. After all, you conquered me. I count as one of your beauties too, right? I have the right to meddle!"
"That''s because you drugged me!"
"Whether there were drugs or not, what happened already happened, don''t deny it!" Lilith snorted, her lips curling up again, "But after all these years, you haven''t changed a bit. You''re still surrounded by countless women."
With that, she put on a mischievous smile and teasingly asked, "Ye Huan, do you really n to open a big harem? There are five offstage, plus me and my six sisters, making a total of twelve. There are twelve celestial gods in the West, just enough for us to create twelve concubines for you. You really can, huh."
Chapter 470 - 461 Transformation? Ridiculous!
Ye Huan was at a loss for words. He really wanted to exin that aftering to Huaxia, he hadpletely reformed, bing a devoted man with only Zhang Huimin as the one woman in his life. All other women were just misunderstandings.
But back when he was overseas, from escort girls to the princesses of conglomerates, he had been with so many women that he lost count. It''s not an exaggeration to say he had countless women.
Lilith had been by his side for two years, and knew these things inside out, so it was impossible for her to believe he had suddenly reformed.
He knew that no matter how he tried to exin, it would be a waste of breath, so he simply kept silent.
"Let''s not talk about anything else. How about it, my bodyis it even better than before?" Lilith asked smugly, winking and making faces.
The dance moves became increasingly seductive!
Countless men went wild!
But Ye Huan...
He didn''t have the heart to appreciate it at all.
He was still thinking about how to deal with the situation involving Su Qingqing, Liu Tianyun, Tang Yao, Ye Qiqing, and Zhang Huimin!
If he doesn''t handle this well, Brother Huan will be doomed.
Ye Huan wore a troubled expression.
Seeing that Ye Huan wasn''t responding, Lilith asked again, "I''m asking you, is my body even better than it was before?"
"..."
Several seconds passed without a response, and Lilith was quite displeased, her dance moves even more enthusiastic.
Beside her, Diana was nearly fainting from embarrassment, wanting to step forward to stop Lilith numerous times but was always red back at.
Offstage.
Su Qingqing, Ye Qiqing, and Zhang Huimin all lowered their heads, their fists clenched tightly, making a creaking sound of bone movement.
The male fans wanted to rece Ye Huan, so it''s no surprise they wanted to rece Lilith, too?
In their eyes, Lilith''s actions were pure "provocation"!
This is in front of tens of millions of people; can you really be so bold?!
"Shameless!"
The women were all very dissatisfied, cursing in their hearts, and Lilith''s idol status in their minds copsed.
Lilith''s fans -4!
Lilu was blushing, lowering her head, embarrassed by her "daughter-inw''s" boldness. Though as a mother, she was quite pleased, she also felt too embarrassed to watch.
As for Liu Tianyun...
She was both furious and frustrated, biting her teeth hard.
Who is Ye Huan? Her husband, Liu Tianyun''s husband!
Lilith actually "imed" her husband in front of tens of millions of people!
For a moment, Liu Tianyun wished she could tear Lilith apart!
And those fans?
Liu Tianyun took out her phone and angrily unfollowed Lilith''s live broadcast, blog, and other social tforms.
Fans -1!
And another thing, Liu Tianyun was utterly perplexed!
Lilith was the World Celestial Queen, the artist with the most fans worldwide since her debut, and no scandal had ever been associated with her.
But today, at the concert venue, under the spotlight, she made such bold moves towards Ye Huan, which means she definitely had an extraordinary rtionship with him!
Who is Ye Huan in the end?
The God of ughter!?
Liu Tianyun remembered that Lilu had inadvertently blurted out "God of ughter."
But she couldn''te up with any clues whatsoever, and she didn''t understand what "God of ughter" represented at all.
Possessing the inescapable martial prowess of Jiang Tiansha, capable of altering bullet trajectories with bare hands!
Possessing transcendent medical skills, even stronger than Huaxia''s top doctor Jiang Jinfeng!
Possessing an identity shrouded in mystery, apart from "Huaxia Crown Prince."
Liu Tianyun knew that the information about Ye Huan that Liu Aimin forced him to provide was all superficial.
He had been overseas.
But did he really go overseas to mine andy bricks, as Ye Huan himself imed?
Impossible.
How could working abroad possibly allow him to know the World Celestial Queen Lilith and have connections with her?
If it were merely working abroad, how could he possess such extraordinary medical skills and martial abilities?
There was only one exnation.
Ye Huan had many secrets.
Many, many secrets!
All the information obtained about Ye Huan was extremely superficial; he was a man shrouded in profound mystery.
As a wife, she couldn''t see through her husband at all, nor his identity, nor anything about him.
In fact, she might not even know him as well as his other women do.
Liu Tianyun was deeply disheartened.
At their first meeting, Ye Huan was very enthusiastic towards her, overly enthusiastic, always having "having children" on his lips.
Later on, his attitude suddenly changedneither cold nor warmand he never said those things again, yet he continued to quietly help her and Tianyun International fend off many threats, brought down the Bai Family.
And saved her and Liu Aimin from Jiang Tiansha.
Later, she began to notice the bright spots in Ye Huan, changing her view and even harboring some hidden affection.
But his lukewarm behavior turned into in coldness, distancing.
Liu Tianyun wasn''t foolish; she knew that Ye Huan would reject her carefully nned invitations without even listening, consciously distancing himself from her.
Did it hurt her at the time?
It hurt a little, but she thought she could remedy itter, find an opportunity to pull his heart back.
But now, Liu Tianyun found herself ridiculous.
Ye Huan was on good terms with almost every other woman, deliberately distancing only her.
And she was still foolishly thinking of finding another opportunity, taking her time.
But by waiting any longer, will there really be a chance to win back Ye Huan''s heart?
Not to mention Ye Qiqing; she was Ye Huan''s sister.
But Su Qingqing, Zhang Huimin, Tang Yao, which of these three women was inferior to her?
And now there''s Lilith, the World Celestial Queen.
A dream lover of over a hundred million men!
An exceedingly beautiful traditional Western beauty!
Why would so many women be infatuated with Ye Huan without reason?
Ye Huan would neverck women around him, much less so-called beauties!
Facing these women, she had nopetitiveness!
Under such circumstances, she was actually still waiting, waiting for the n to transform Ye Huan to start?
But Ye Huan doesn''t need her, why would he ept transformation?
Moreover, with so many women not inferior to her liking him, why would he have a reason to choose her, to ept that ridiculous "transformation"?
Thinking of this, Liu Tianyun''s expression grew increasingly deste.
A wave of helplessness.
Chapter 471 - 462: Those Who Die from Drought and Those Who Die from Flood
"857! 857! 8888857!"
The final roar of rock music fell.
The performance ended.
At this moment, the temperature in the venue had risen significantly!
In winter, without the air conditioning on, the warmth in this bird''s nest made everyone break out in a sweat!
The reason was none other than Lilith''s performance; it was just too hot, igniting a fire in every man''s heart.
After the pole dance segment ended, the concert took a halftime break.
The entire venue, except for one spot, not only wasn''t hot but was cold as if it was in the deepest Siberian abyss!
Ye Huan sat in the Supreme VIP Seat No. 9, with a tense face like a primary school student.
Apart from countless murderous looks from men.
The icy stares of the several women made him look calm on the surface, but he felt far from calm inside.
What a mess this was!
Although Brother Huan, standing tall without a guilty conscience, only had ties with Zhang Huimin, he could ignore all other stares!
But the resentful gaze from directly behind was impossible to ignore!
Moreover, he could perhaps ignore the other women''s stares, but if they wanted to act up, Brother Huan couldn''t handle it!
At this moment, Su Qingqing grew angrier the more she thought about it, fiercely pinching Ye Huan''s thigh and angrily questioned: "Exin to me properly, what''s your rtionship with Lilith?"
"Yeah, exin properly, or just for daring to sneak around with another woman behind Sister Zhang''s back, I won''t spare you!" shouted Tang Yao from the seat behind.
Tang Yao''s words immediately drew attention.
Zhang Huimin wanted to cover her mouth, but it was toote.
Facing Liu Tianyun''s gaze, she lowered her head somewhat guiltily.
As for Tang Yao, she still wore a furious expression!
As for Lilo...
She was genuinely overjoyed inside!
Great!
This petite and adorable girl would make a perfect daughter-inw, such a pity if not!
And this other girl, with an intellectual aura, absolutely great for having kids, another pity if not a daughter-inw!
Lilo gave Ye Huan an "appreciative" look, as if to say, "Come on, mom supports you."
Ye Huan almost spat out old blood.
He could only brace himself and exin, "Lilith and I are friends, met overseas before."
He called it an exnation, but to the women, it certainly wasn''t!
Defending!
He was defending!
Met?
If it was purely just meeting, would World Celestial Queen Lilith have changed the song and dance segment to such a bold disy specifically for you!?
Trying to fool fools here!
"I''m telling you, if you don''te up with a good exnation today, I''m gonna..."
Su Qingqing said viciously, stopped midway because she realized she had no means to threaten Ye Huan.
"There''s really nothing between us!" Ye Huan dered righteously, yet his face looked apprehensive.
Whether willingly or not, Brother Huan indeed handled Lilith, can this be called "nothing?"
However, even attempting an exnation now probably won''t work!
"I''ll exin to you all after the concert!" Ye Huan, with a dark expression, said and closed his eyes amidst the murderous res from the women, saying nothing more.
Appearing this way on the outside, his heart longed to properly school Lilith!
It''s fine to hold a concert in Huaxia, but must you fan the mes there, thinking the situation isn''t chaotic enough!
Ten minutes passed, and the concert resumed.
Under the increasingly colder gazes from the women, Ye Huan found it odd and squinted open his eyes slightly.
"Damn."
Ye Huan couldn''t hold back and cursed through gritted teeth.
On the main stage, Lilith, exhibiting her sweet singing voice, greatly boosted the overall mood, while every so often sending flying kisses to Brother Huan''s seat!
Every time this happened, Ye Huan''s thigh pinched by Su Qingqing on the left and by Ye Qiqing on the right hurt all the more!
It wasn''t that Lilith didn''t think there was enough trouble or the fire wasn''t strong enough, she just thought Brother Huan wasn''t going to die anytime soon!
In Ye Huan''s mind, ten thousand Divine Beasts were rampaging.
But there''s no solution; under such circumstances, even if he had ten thousand mouths, he couldn''t exin clearly, he could only endure until the concert ended to try defending himself.
While internally griping, he noticed a resentful gaze fixed on him.
From Seat 6, Nan Zhen.
Ye Huan didn''t take it to heart.
Nan Zhen had already made a fool of himself, if he still didn''t learn, and sought death, Brother Huan wouldn''t mind amodating him.
...
Amid the deafening cheers, apuse, and Lilith''s sweet and charming singing, Nan Zhen nced at Ye Huan with a sidelong view, eyes full of resentment, jealousy, and hatred.
Nan Zhen noticed that the women around Ye Huan were each affected emotionally because Ye Huan danced for Lilith.
This implied that these women all had ties with Ye Huan!
And, these women were the crme de crme of beauties!
It''s already a world of more men than women!
And yet you, Ye Huan, hoard so many "good resources" for yourself, isn''t your conscience hurting!
Aren''t you afraid of being condemned by all the men!
While some starve to death in drought!
Others drown in floods!
Chapter 472 - 463: Asura Field!
After an hour and a half and more than ten ssic songs, Lilith announced that she would release a new album, which would be sent to the concert attendees as soon as it was ready, so they could get their hands on it first.
Instantly, the entire venue was in an uproar!
Lilith stood on the tform, apanied by the deafening cheers and revelry of the audience, as the tform slowly descended.
At the same time, she waved with a smile, bidding farewell to the audience.
Her figure disappearedpletely, but the cheers and shouts grew louder instead of fading.
Supreme VIP, seat number six.
After the concert ended, the first thing South Town did was flee this ce that had disgraced him.
Before leaving, he even shot Ye Huan a venomous nce.
At this moment, even Ye Huan found the earth-shattering cheers intolerable, covering his ears with both hands.
The women beside him were unfazed by the shouting, sitting in the same posture.
Legs crossed, arms folded, faces cold as frost.
Each time Lilith blew a kiss to Ye Huan, their anger level increased.
By now, after hundreds of blown kisses, their anger was about to explode!
Ye Huan naturally felt this.
After a difficult gulp, he casually scratched the back of his head, stood up, and said, "This concert was great, plus we get the album. Alright, let''s head back."
"Back?"
The women''s eyes shed with cold light, startling Ye Huan into twitching his lips several times.
"NoGoing back for what, of course we''re going back!" Ye Huan replied.
"Then may I ask, this ''back'' you mentioned, who exactly were you referring to among us?" Zhang Huimin asked, her words dripping with jealousy.
The jealousy jar toppled over!
Saying she could ept Ye Huan having other women, yet seeing him reject her date invitation to go out with another woman, truly upset her.
Ye Huan was struck by frustration.
This question waspletely unanswerable.
If he said it was directed at all of them, wouldn''t he be implying he had a special rtionship with each of them?
But if he said it was to one specific person, the other women would surely explode on the spot.
This situation was impossible to handle!
"Let''s go, I need to demand an exnation from that woman!"
"In broad daylight, under the watchful eyes of millions, dare to monopolize someone else''s husband!"
"I won''t tolerate it!"
Su Qingqing cursed fiercely, dragging Ye Huan''s arm towards the backstage.
She had no intimate rtionship with Ye Huan, so she couldn''t criticize other women interested in him emotionally, nor could she vent her anger on Lilith.
Therefore, she prepared to confront Lilith under the pretense of "monopolizing someone else''s husband!"
After all, Lilith indeed "monopolized" Liu Tianyun''s husband under broad daylight!
With this reason, she had the right to vent!
"Come on, there''s no need, really no need!"
"Rather than wasting breath, we should just head home early, everyone back to their mom"
Ye Huan was extremely anxious.
Su Qingqing is strong-willed, and so is Lilith!
When these two women sh, it''s bound to result in a hair-pulling fight!
"Your words are useless!" Su Qingqing red angrily at Ye Huan.
Then, with several women apanying her, she forcibly dragged Ye Huan away.
Ye Huan was truly in a bind, unable to even find a ce to cry.
...
"Lilith, exin yourself to me, what do you mean!"
Su Qingqing was very vtile, kicking open the backstage door.
"Security! Security, quick!" Hearing themotion, Diana thought an assassin hade, her face turned pale, and she urgently shouted out.
In an instant, the already prepared security guards rushed in with batons in hand.
"Leave."
"There''s no danger."
As the security guards were about to seize Su Qingqing, Lilith waved them off.
After looking at each other, the security guards retreated.
Diana was stunned, nced at Su Qingqing and the others, and retreated to the side with a frown.
"Ladies, anything wrong?"
Lilith sat in a chair, asked calmly.
Her left hand holding a small mirror, and with her right, she was applying eyeshadow.
Not even sparing Su Qingqing and the others a nce.
This made them even angrier.
"Nonsense, if nothing''s wrong, why would we seek you out!"
"Lilith, have some decency!"
Chapter 473 - 464: Ill Dominate Your Husband, What Can You Do?
Su Qingqing red angrily, taking the lead to attack Lilith.
"Why ask that? This face of mine is so beautiful, how could I not want it?" Lilith replied casually, still touching up her eyeliner.
Narcissist!
Su Qingqing cursed in her heart.
The reason she only cursed in her heart was because she had to admit, Lilith''s face was indeed stunningly beautiful.
After taking a deep breath, she questioned, "Since you care about your face, then why, as the entertainer with the most fans in the world, are you publicly iming someone else''s husband in broad daylight? Don''t you feel ashamed!?"
"iming someone else''s husband?"
With a "click," Lilith closed her eyeliner case and looked at Su Qingqing with amusement, "You mean my darling is your husband?"
Darling?
This word clearly made the rage among the women re up once again!
Su Qingqing was somewhat embarrassed.
At most, she was secretly in love with Ye Huan, and had no intimate rtionship with him.
Helpless, she had to brace herself and point at Liu Tianyun, while angrily reprimanding Lilith, "She is Ye Huan''s wife, and you''re iming her husband right in front of her. You''re destroying someone''s rtionship!"
"iming her husband is between her and me. What does it have to do with you? Do you have any standing to intervene?" Lilith sneered.
"You" Su Qingqing was furious, but couldn''t refute, falling silent.
About three secondster, she found a somewhat reasonable excuse and said unhappily, "She''s my friend, isn''t it right for me to speak up for her?"
Lilith''s lips curled, her face looking even more amused, "Of course, you can speak up for your friend, but I guess it''s because you don''t have the standing to criticize me, which is why you found such an excuse."
"You you''re talking nonsense!" Su Qingqing felt extremely guilty, her voice dropping significantly.
"Whether I''m talking nonsense, you know well in your heart." Lilith snorted coldly and continued, "You definitely want to pursue my darling but can''t catch him, and you''re jealous of me being able to be affectionate with him, which is why you''re angry. Using ''friendship'' as a shield because you''re mad, my analysis isn''t wrong, right?"
Her mind exposed, Su Qingqing was furious and ashamed.
And
She was jealous!
"I''m going to fight you!!"
Su Qingqing gritted her teeth and swung her fists, charging at Lilith.
Ye Huan restrained her from behind, his face dark as he said, "Calm down, both of you stop talking!"
"Resorting to a fit when you can''t win an argument, not realizing even when you can''t catch my darling!"
"A woman as unreasonable and violent as you doesn''t deserve to be by my darling''s side!"
"Also, with such a bad temper, are you going through menopause? Women in menopause should hurry and leave my darling''s side!"
Lilith clearly had no intention of "ceasefire," sitting in the chair and sarcastically speaking.
"Let me go, I''m going to fight her today!" Su Qingqing''s face was red from the insults, struggling continuously.
Ye Huan naturally wouldn''t let go.
If they started fighting, the situation would really be uncontroble!
He kept blinking, signaling Lilith to stop talking, signaling her to ceasefire!
Unfortunately, Lilith chose to ignore him.
"Let me tell you, a woman who wants to be with my darling must be virtuous and demure. People like you don''t stand a chance!"
Winning the verbal spar, Lilith snorted triumphantly and then casually nced at Liu Tianyun, "You are my darling''s husband?"
"Miss Lilith, please mind your words. He is my husband, not your darling!" Liu Tianyun clenched her fists, her gaze icy.
"Why wouldn''t he be my darling?" Lilith raised her brows, her face slightly displeased. "You are the official wife, I can call you ''sister,'' but you shouldn''t use your status to suppress me. When my darling truly won me over, you didn''t even know where you were hanging around. When I wasn''t around, you stole the tower, and that''s fine, but don''t be too proud. If I find you treating my darling badly, I can rece you anytime!"
"As for iming your husband"
Lilith smirked wickedly and stood up, with a "mwah," she left a fiery lip print on Ye Huan''s left cheek.
Then, she looked at Liu Tianyun and smiled, "I''m iming him. What can you do?"
Chapter 474 - 465: Pulling Hair!
Her kiss nearly caused Huan to die on the spot.
This wasn''t just fanning the mes.
This was deliberately setting off a bomb!
Lilith''s words and actions thoroughly infuriated Liu Tianyun.
She clenched her fists tightly, making a "crack" sound!
Lilith''s behavior was clearly a provocation against her!
And a provocation against Zhang Huimin!
And also Su Qingqing!
As well as Ye Qiqing!
Seeing the "bomb" was about to explode...
"Enough, all of you!"
"Can''t you talk properly?"
"Do you have to argue here?"
Ye Huan yelled twice, feigning anger.
This look truly frightened several women.
After all, Ye Huan had never shown his angry face in front of them before.
Zhang Huimin looked down with a bit of grievance.
Although Ye Huan couldn''t bear it, there was no way around it.
He had no choice but to do this.
Who is Lilith? The daughter of Divine King Zeus from the Western Dark World, pampered and domineering since childhood.
If she really got angry, she wouldn''t give face to anyone.
Getting into conflict with her, the women would definitely not benefit.
"Talk it out properly, don''t argue!" Ye Huan rebuked loudly.
Lilith had also never seen Ye Huan angry, and immediately calmed down a lot.
She snorted, then returned to her chair, and said, "Darling, my point is this: even if you get married, I won''t give up on you. If you''re opening a harem, I must have a spot."
Ye Huan really wanted to find a ce to reason with her but couldn''t.
He never thought about starting a harem!
But he didn''t respond to Lilith''s words.
After all, she finally quieted down, and the fighting stopped.
As long as all the women stopped fighting, the situation could still be controlled!
"You all calm down now!" Ye Huan continued to act angry, said this coldly, and then released the hold on Su Qingqing.
Each woman had a face full of dissatisfaction, pulling a chair to sit down with arms crossed.
Rarely, they unified their stance in their hearts!
Because there was a mon enemy"!
Lilith!
World Celestial Queen!
This figure, whether in stature or talent, surpassed 99.99999% of women!
Even though they were very unsatisfied with Lilith''s domineering behavior, the women had to admit thatpared to Lilith, they not only had no advantage but even some disadvantage.
This made them feel a huge sense of crisis.
Especially her sentence: "When Darling really took me, you didn''t even know where soy sauce was being made."
Wasn''t this saying that Ye Huan had something with her long ago?
Ye Huan didn''t deny it, showing that it was true.
Damn, this was much earlier than them.
The women became increasingly dissatisfied.
Su Qingqing was the worst!
A strong sense of defeat rose in her heart.
Just in this one aspect, Lilith crushed herpletely.
Besides the sense of defeat, she was also furious.
Furious at Ye Huan!
What was Ye Huan doing, was he blind?
How did he end up with this utterly unreasonable woman?
Was it because Lilith had a good figure and good looks that he took her?
Such a fool, not to see her innermost qualities!
This woman''s personality was like apletely unreasonable spoiled girl, marrying such a woman would mean being entangled for a lifetime!
Spending a lifetime with her, this kind of spoiled girl''s temper won''t serve you!
Perhaps she''d have you serve her, doingundry, cooking, mopping the floor, doing housework...
Just for momentary pleasure?
After the pleasure, it''s hell on earth!
Su Qingqing gave Ye Huan a fierce re.
Time ticked away, the women''sbined mental and visual assault on Lilith grew increasingly intense.
Lilith, however, seemed indifferent, calmly sipping her tea, disying the air of an aloof spoiled youngdy.
Su Qingqing felt she deserved a beating!
She wanted to pull her hair!
Her jaw was clenched, continuously making a ''grind'' sound.
Nearby, Li Luo smiled like a flower, her heart blooming with joy.
Unexpectedly,ing to this concert allowed her to meet so many daughters-inw!
So proud!
Not for nothing, her beloved son, so proud!
Bute to think of it, her son having so many women, was he nning to open a little harem?
Truly knows how to enjoy life.
Li Luo gave Ye Huan an approving yet yful look.
Ye Huan noticed this look and had a darker expression than ck Bao Qingtian, yet he sighed in relief internally.
The women were all holding back, in this situation, they wouldn''t start pulling hair, and the situation wouldn''t get out of hand.
He was about to speak to soothe the women.
But suddenly, just as his earlobe twitched slightly, his brows furrowed.
Even though the sound was extremely faint.
So faint to the ultimate degree.
He could still hear it was a gunshot!
Ye Huan''s face became serious.
Had the assassin that Apollo mentioned arrived?
Chapter 475 - 466: Thug!
"Stay inside, don''t say a word. No matter what happens, don''te out, understand!"
Ye Huan instructed in a calm voice.
"Huh?"
The women were puzzled.
They wanted to ask Ye Huan, but he had already stepped out.
But the next second, he was pushed back.
No...
To be precise, he was pushed back by the muzzle of a silenced AK47!
"Raise your hands!" The burly man barked loudly, his finger slightly squeezing the trigger.
Ye Huan didn''t act recklessly and instead raised his hands as instructed by the man.
The reason was simple...
The four people behind the man had their guns pointed at Su Qingqing and the others, their fingers on the triggers.
Ye Huan wasn''t confident he could take them all out in an instant, as these thugs were tightly wound and could very well pull the triggers in a moment of panic and injure Su Qingqing and the others.
He needed to find another opportunity.
"All of you, move it ande out!" The beret-wearing man, known as Old Ghost, shouted a string of curses towards the backstage.
Finally, with AK47s pointed at them, Su Qingqing and the others, pale-faced, walked out from the backstage towards the main hall.
Lilith seemed unfazed; she had seen such scenes many times.
Almost every concert had these kinds of disturbances. Fans were so used to it that they gave her a nickname: The living Conan.
Wherever Conan went, murders urred.
Wherever Lilith went, terror activities happened.
Upon reaching the main hall, apart from Lilith, the other women were pale with fear.
The scene was a bloodbath.
Several well-dressed audience membersy on the ground, with blood gushing from wounds on their bodies, victims of a shooting.
Thousands of other audience members, under the threat of guns, were herded onto the main stage by the thugs.
The originally spacious main stage was now overcrowded.
The audience followed the thugs'' demands, holding their heads and squatting on the ground, trembling.
"Old Ghost, drop your weapon and surrender. The only oue for resisting is death!" At the venue''s entrance, leading a force of the Special Service Bureau, Ye Tiance red furiously, eyes zing with anger.
"Ye Tiance, retreat immediately, or don''t me me for ruthlessly killing all these people!"
A man with a ck beret, emzoned with a "ck skull" emblem on its brim and a half-smoked cigar in his mouth, looked at the venue''s entrance with a sinister grin as he raised his AK.
"Bang!!!"
A bullet pierced straight through the ceiling!
"Ah!!!!"
The gunshot triggered chaos. The audience screamed in terror, covering their ears.
"Ye Tiance, I''m giving you ten seconds. Fall back!!"
"Or I''ll order them to open fire!"
Old Ghost''s tone was fierce, but his face showed panic.
If they fought to the end, they were sure to die!
The strength of Huaxia''s Special Service Bureau was beyond doubt.
He didn''t want to die, so he used hostages as leverage!
Meanwhile, aside from his gun aimed at the venue entrance''s Ye Tiance, his twenty or so subordinates pointed their guns at the audience huddled on the main stage, and not at Ye Tiance or the special forces at the entrance.
They knew that a showdown with Huaxia''s Special Service Bureau would lead only to death, so they chose to use hostages as a threat.
This threat proved highly effective.
Ye Tiance suppressed his fury, trying to keep his voice calm: "Old Ghost, I''ll advise you onest time, surrender is your only way out. I can negotiate for leniency on your behalf!"
"Bang!!!"
Old Ghost fired another shot into the ceiling without a word and then furiously roared: "Load the bullets!"
"ck! ck! ck!"
The other twenty brawny men all pulled back the bolts, keeping their guns aimed at therge number of audience members on the main stage.
"Ye Tiance, take your people and fall back!"
"I''m just here to do a job, not to hurt anyone!"
"But if you don''t give me face, don''t me me if my bullets rain wildly everywhere!"
Old Ghost roared again, all the while watching Ye Tiance. He turned his AK towards the audience, his finger squeezing the trigger slightly, his face full of anger: "Fall back!!!"
"You..."
Seeing Old Ghost''s determination to go down in mes, Ye Tiance took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and signaled with a hand gesture. The fully armed special forces soldiers behind him began retreating step by step.
With more than twenty AKs, if they all opened fire, hundreds or even more hostages would die instantly, and that was uneptable!
"Didn''t you eat breakfast!?"
"Move faster!"
"Damn it!"
Chapter 476 - 467: Dark Grim Reaper
The old ghost saw that the threat worked, so he felt more confident and his arrogance grew, pulling the trigger a bit more.
Ye Tiance was so angry that his lungs almost exploded, but he didn''t re up. He waved his hand backward, leading the special service soldiers to quickly retreat to a position three hundred meters away from the hall''s entrance.
It wasn''t until Ye Tiance''s figurepletely disappeared from sight that the old ghost finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The Special Service Bureau''s intelligence is really urate, and their actions are quite fast. They had just managed to gather the audience together, and the Special Service Bureau had already arrived.
Also, Huaxia is truly Huaxia, a country where human life is above all else.
Previously, he was on a mission in Bear Country...
Hostages?
Bear Country''s special forces would first execute the hostages, so there would be no hostages, and then they would shoot down his men, absolute craziness.
"Go." The old ghost signaled with his eyes to one of his subordinates.
The subordinate nodded, ran to the hall''s entrance, and closed the door.
Because it was a concert, the ce needed lighting to create atmosphere, so therge hall was thoroughly covered with ck cloth.
Once the door was closed, the outside couldn''t see what was happening inside at all.
Exhaling a thick puff of smoke, the old ghost waved his hand, leading his men toward the main stage.
As they walked to the side of the main stage.
"Boss, we''ve found them. They were hiding backstage just a moment ago," a subordinate stepped forward and reported.
"Hoo"
Exhaling another thick puff of smoke, the old ghost stubbed out his cigar and stared at everyone in front of him except for Lilith, saying, "Are you going up by yourselves, or would you like us to help you up?"
The women immediately panicked.
Seeing Ye Huan leading the way to the main stage, they all hung their heads and followed.
Except for Lilith and Diana.
...
Outside the Bird''s Nest in Capital City.
Nurses lifted the security guard who had been shot in the abdomen onto a stretcher, then into an ambnce before leaving.
Obviously, the faint gunshot Ye Huan had heard earlier was the confrontation between the old ghost''s group and the security guard, resulting in a shot fired.
After the ambnce left, there were still hundreds of police cars and armored vehicles on the scene!
In the air, modern armed helicopters hovered, whistling, while a thousand armed special police officers stood ready.
In addition to the thousand armed special police officers, there were a thousand armed special service soldiers.
"Tiance, what''s the situation inside?" A man dressed in a police uniform with a menacing scar across his face stepped out of a police car and saluted Ye Tiance.
Themander of Huaxia''s police departmentLi Shen, who is also Li Luo''s second brother and Ye Tiance''s brother-inw.
Upon hearing that the Bird''s Nest was hijacked by the bandits, he immediately dropped his work and rushed to the scene.
Ye Tiance returned the salute, his face looking quite bad as he said, "The bandits have taken control of the hall and have intentions of mutual destruction with the hostages. To ensure the safety of the hostages, I withdrew my men first."
He didn''t look especially angry on the surface, but inside he was furious. After receiving intelligence about a group of armed men secretly entering the country, he had returned to Capital City immediately to pursue the investigation.
As soon as they confirmed the bandits'' location, the bandits took action quickly, capturing the Bird''s Nest and taking over ten thousand audience members hostage.
Li Shen''s eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Tiance, who are these bandits?"
"Dark Reaper," Ye Tiance replied.
Dark Reaper?
Li Shen''s eyes narrowed abruptly, and his expression changed.
This term was not unfamiliar to him!
A top-tier presence among mercenary groups!
The mercenary group, active in ces like the Middle East Region and Africa''s impoverished areas, is an organization of armed men who brush with death daily.
Scorned by the Dark World, yet a constant headache for nations worldwide.
The World Criminal Police Organization onceunched efforts tobat the mercenary groups, but gains were minimal.
Because the powerful mercenary groups boasted top-tier fighting will andbat skills, their overall quality rivals that of some of the world''s elite special forces.
Later, the World Criminal Police Organization investigated and produced a rtively urate ranking list of mercenary groups.
Dark Reaper stood out as a group categorized under deep red for danger, ranking as the second super mercenary group that regrly operates in a particr country around the Middle East.
Their power is so formidable that they control several small oil fields within that country, forcing the country to allocate hundreds of billions in US Dors annually tobat them.
Yet, over all these years, while the country spent vast sums, Dark Reaper not only remained unscathed but grew stronger, seizing more oil fields and instilling fear in the army of that country, a testament to their unparalleled strength.
The leader of the Dark Reaper mercenary groupthe old ghost, is a globally wanted criminal in red notices, notoriously ruthless with countless lives imed.
Li Shen wouldn''t doubt for a moment this fierce person''s determination to go down with the hostages.
His expression was very solemn as he asked, "We must ensure the safety of the hostages to the greatest extent. Have the bandits made any demands?"
"They haven''t made any demands yet."
As Ye Tiance was speaking, a "ding" soundedthe notification of a WeChat message.
He took out his phone, nced at it, and showed a look of surprise.
"What happened?" Li Shen asked.
"My son is inside."
"Dabao?" Li Shen''s expression changed again, "Dabao is found? Moreover, he''s in the midst of the bandits, and you''re happy about it?"
"Haha, it''s fine, solid," Ye Tianceughed heartily, patting Li Shen''s shoulder.
Li Shen''s body went stiff.
Is this how you act as a father!?
He hastily stepped aside to call the number one leader, namely the Li Family''s patriarch Li Hentian, Ye Huan''s grandfather.
Chapter 477 - 468: So Reasonable That It Cant Be Refuted
"Are you Lilith?"
On the left side below the main stage, the old ghost scrutinized Lilith with his gaze.
"I''m Lilith." At the critical moment, Diana stepped out and stood in front of Lilith.
Without a word, the old ghost swung his hand directly.
"Smack!"
Diana was pped to the ground, spitting out several bloody teeth, her left cheek swelling from the hit.
"Diana!" Lilith''s face turned anxious.
Before she could step forward to check Diana''s injuries, the old ghost stepped on Diana''s body.
"Did you really think I don''t know what Lilith looks like?"
"I''m also her fan."
"During her live stream, I even sent ten super gifts and opened an emperor title."
The old ghost spat on the ground, cursed a few times, then kicked Diana, sending her flying ten meters away.
Diana howled in pain, cursing in her heart.
Since you already know, why are you pretending to ask!
After cursing, she became anxious, realizing these thugs were indeed targeting Lilith.
Where is the God of ughter!?
Why hasn''t the God of ughter arrived yet!
And, that "coward" who saved the youngdy overseas so many times, clearly has some strength, why is he hanging his head this time, as soon as threatened by the thugs he went up the main stage?
Has he be more cowardly over the years??
Miss, oh Miss, look at the kind of person you''re in love with!
This kind of person, at the critical moment, "abandons his wife and daughter!"
s!
Diana felt deep sadness and sighed heavily.
If Lilith had listened to her advice, she wouldn''t have ended up like this.
"Lilith, you don''t seem to be afraid of me?" the old ghost asked with interest when he saw Lilithpletely unfazed.
"Why should I be afraid of you?"
Lilith retorted, seemingly unperturbed, because she didn''t believe Ye Huan would ignore her.
The old ghost was intrigued.
At the same time, he admired Lilith even more.
"Lilith, I must say, you have a lot of guts."
"But ah, you are right not to be afraid of me, I''m also your loyal fan, I''ve given you gifts worth nearly a million."
"I''ve also collected all your albums."
The old ghost grinned with his yellow teeth, stained from years of smoking, smiling as he spoke.
"Since you''re my fan, why did you break into my concert venue with a gun?"
"How about this, seeing you''re a loyal fan, if you put down the gun and surrender to the police, I can make an exception and take a photo with you."
"I can also arrange for a signed photo, and even negotiate leniency with the Huaxia police for you."
Lilith folded her arms, looking nonchnt as she spoke.
The old ghost paused for a moment, then burst intoughter.
Afterughing for a few minutes, he pulled out a cigar from his cigarette case, bit it, and with a "click," lit it.
Blowing out a smoke ring, his face remained amused, "Lilith, I must say, you are the bravest and most interesting woman I''ve ever met."
Lilith maintained a cold expression, without responding.
"Actually, when I took this job, I really hesitated for a long time."
"First, I''m a loyal fan of yours, and I really like your films and albums."
"Second, if I hurt or killed you, your over a billion fans wouldn''t let me go, I''d be drowned in their spit."
"It''s just a pity that ''they'' offered too much."
The old ghost shrugged helplessly, "The offer was so high that I couldn''t refuse the job, but I don''t want to harm you, so what do you say?"
"Easy, betray them."
"Tell us who sent you to assassinate me, then surrender, and I''ll work to get your execution canceled."
"No matter how much they offer, I''ll give you double."
Lilith''s words left the old ghost momentarily stunned.
"s, if you offered these terms a month ago, I might have agreed."
"Unfortunately, even if you cancel the execution, I''d still spend my life in prison."
"Having so much money in prison isn''t much use, now is it?"
"But I also don''t want to harm you."
"Today, as long as you hand over the item, I promise not to make things difficult for you, not a hair on your head will be harmed, how does that sound?"
The old ghost pleaded earnestly.
Lilith''s expression turned unpleasant, the old ghost''s argument was so reasonable that she couldn''t refute it.
But...
She was so angry that she burst intoughter and said, "What exactly do you want! Every time you cause trouble for me, you demand I hand over the ''item'' but refuse to tell me what to hand over!"
"What you need to hand over, you know it yourself!"
Chapter 478 - 469: Japanese Ninjutsu?
"I don''t want to waste time with you anymore! You''ve got fifteen minutes to decide whether to hand it over."
"If not, then I''ll have no choice but to be ruthless and send you a bullet."
A sinister gleam shed in Old Ghost''s eyes as he coldly threw down these words.
Then, leading four of his underlings, he walked toward the main entrance of the venue.
"You know what you''re supposed to hand over."
He merely repeated this phrase verbatim as instructed by the client.
He had asked the client countless times, but the response was always, "Don''t ask questions you shouldn''t," apanied by a cold stare.
Moreover, since the mission''s location was Huaxia, a forbidden zone in the Dark World, Old Ghost really didn''t want to take on thismissioned task at that time.
After all, apart from the Dragon Gate, the skilled special agents in this Dark World forbidding zone were also a considerable threat.
This trip could end with a narrow escape!
But there was no choice; the offer was just too tempting...
Far too tempting!
An upfront payment of ten billion.
Another ten billion uponpletion, totaling twenty billion.
After covering expenses, their entire group would normally have a yearly profit of around three billion, so this twenty billion could save them nearly seven years of strugglehow could Old Ghost not be tempted?
It''s like a hard-working young man meeting a wealthy cougar; just cling to her, and you can save decades of effort!
...
After Old Ghost left, Ye Huan''s eyes gradually narrowed to slits as he scanned his surroundings.
Over twenty bandits, and he could easily handle them.
But he wasn''t confident he could instantly kill all the bandits who were intently focused on the hostages within a second.
If he acted and didn''t manage to instantly kill all the bandits, the remaining ones would undoubtedly retaliate and start shooting at the hostages.
With such a dense crowd, a burst of gunfire would result in at least a hundred casualties, if not more, which was uneptable.
With no immediate solution, Ye Huan turned his head, first ncing at Lilith, then at Zhang Huimin and Su Qingqing among the crowd.
Seeing their worried looks, Ye Huan slowly shook his head, assuring them not to worry and to stay calm.
This scene was clearly caught by Liu Tianyun.
Ye Huan gave reassuring looks to all the other women, but none were directed at her!
Didn''t this mean he didn''t care about her at all?
In his heart, she didn''t upy even a small ce.
In such a situation, she still tried to "change" him?
What right did she have? Based on what?
Her bad temper, or the fact that she never showed him a kind face before?
Liu Tianyun squatted beside Lilu, biting her lip hard, her expression deste to the extreme.
Ye Huan didn''t need her, but she thought she was very important to him!
Ridiculous!
Liu Tianyun found herself utterly ridiculous, ridiculous to the extreme!
"Tianyun, don''t be afraid, with Da Bao here, we''ll be okay." Seeing Liu Tianyun not looking well, Lilu thought she was scared, so she quickly patted her back, offering somefort.
Meanwhile, she kept gesturing to Ye Huan with her eyes, urging him to quickly deal with the bandits.
Others might not know, but as a mother, she knew that her son was the God of ughter in the Dark World!
But Ye Huan had already turned his head to stare at the venue entrance,pletely oblivious to Lilu''s signals.
"Listen up, people outside, if you want to save these people, you''d better get three trucks here quickly, fill them with fuel within fifteen minutes, and park them by the entrance!"
"Also, I''ll be leaving C4 on-site. If you dare enter the venue within six hours after we leave, or intercept our helicopter, don''t me me for the consequences!"
"Trust me, in the Middle East, I''m notoriously ruthlesseven if it means hitting myself!"
Old Ghost walked to the venue''s entrance and shouted toward those outside.
"..."
"Those inside the venue, I order you toy down your weapons immediately. Surrendering is your only way out; stubborn resistance will lead to death!"
"Surrender now, and I can plead for leniency on your behalf!"
After some silence, the sound of special agents outside urging them to surrender came over the loudspeaker.
"Damn it, do they really think my methods aren''t ruthless?" Old Ghost snarled in anger, his face twisted, opening a crack in the door and sticking out the muzzle of his AK!
On the main stage, Ye Huan waved his right hand.
"Whizz!"
A rushing sound filled the air as a toothpick precisely lodged into the firing pin of Old Ghost''s AK!
Old Ghost was just about to pull the trigger.
He intended to give the special agents a show of force, forcing them to meet all his demands!
"Click!"
The trigger was fully squeezed, a sinister smirk on Old Ghost''s lips.
But in the next second, his expression changed drastically!
The bullet didn''t fire but instead...
Exploded!
"Bang!!!"
In an instant, metallic fragments from the gun barrel pierced Old Ghost, leaving him riddled with holes, bloody and battered.
A grotesque sight.
"Thud."
With a dull thud, Old Ghost fell to the ground, dead with eyes wide open.
Until his death, he never imagined it would be the man he deemed "powerless" who would send him to Hell.
This momentary urrence left the bandits wide-eyed and dumbfounded.
As they came to their senses, they quickly cocked their guns, ready to shoot the hostages.
But would Ye Huan give them this chance?
This was the moment he was waiting to seize!
Ye Huan''s eyes suddenly turned cold, and as he swung his right hand, his figure darted out!
"Whizz! Whizz! Whizz! Whizz! Whizz!..."
The sound of air being sliced echoed in unison.
Sixteen bandits beside the stage simultaneously had blood holes appear on their foreheads.
The toothpicks pierced through their skulls, embedding deeply into the wall with blood trailing along!
Chapter 479 - 469: Japanese Ninjutsu?_2
At the same time, Ye Huan burst forth to the front of the four bandits at the entrance of the hall.
He threw a punch!
"Bang!"
The bandit spat out a mouthful of blood, his body flying backward.
Ye Huan grabbed the falling AK from the bandit with his right hand.
Immediately, he pulled back the bolt, pulled the trigger, and kept adjusting the direction of fire while shooting.
Four gunshots rang out.
Including the bandit who flew back and hit the wall, all the bandits by the door of the hall had a bloody hole in their foreheads.
The four bullets fired directly sent them to the Yellow Springs!
But at that moment, a sudden change urred!
"Bang!!!!!!!!!"
A loud bang!
A huge hole appeared in the ceiling of the nesting ce, and a ck figure leaped down, dressed in ck overcoat, wearing a yellow mask, with a finger-sized vial hanging on his chest.
As hended next to Lilith, he suddenly stretched his big hand towards Lilith, obviously intending to abduct her.
"Ah!!" Lilith screamed, her face pale as she took two steps back, slipping and falling to the ground.
Without hesitation, Ye Huan raised the AK and pulled the trigger at the ck figure!
"Bang!"
A bullet was fired!
The ck figure''s face turned cold, and he waved his ck sleeve.
"Swish!"
A gust of wind rose, and the moment the bullet touched his body, it ricocheted back!
As Ye Huan flung out a toothpick, his right palm gathered strength and pped forward in the air!
The toothpick pierced the bullet, splitting it in two!
Upon contact with the shockwave from Ye Huan''s palm, they shot towards the ck figure like miniature rockets at lightning speed.
The face beneath the ck figure''s mask changed, and he spun backward, trying to buy time for a counterattack!
Meanwhile, he pped his hands in the air!
The bullets touching his hands instantly turned to dust!
"What!!!"
Seeing Ye Huan rushing to him in an instant, the masked man shouted, suddenly raising his right arm to defend his body.
The AK47''s stock smashed into his arm, directly shattering the bones, leaving him defenseless for a moment.
Ye Huan''s attack did not stop!
"Bang!"
A spinning kick sent the masked man flying backward, spewing blood!
However, that was not enough!
Ye Huan stepped forward with his right foot, reaching for the masked man''s neck.
Grabbing him in front, Ye Huan red at the masked face, his gaze cold, and threw another punch!
"Bang!!!"
The masked man flew backward like a meteor.
The mask on his face shattered, his nasal and cheekbones were pulverized by Ye Huan''s punch, leaving the face beneath it twisted with pain, almost unrecognizable.
But as he flew back, he took a vial from his chest with his left hand, and after popping the stopper, he poured the yellow liquid into his mouth.
In an instant, hepleted a backflip in mid-air,nding with only a slight tremor in his legs, retreating only a step back.
Ye Huan''s gaze narrowed to a slit.
Visibly, the masked man''s injuries started healing, the nasal and cheekbones protruding again, wounds on his face mending rapidly.
Even...
The power of his body multiplied several times over!
The masked man nced at the hostage crowd out of the corner of his eye.
"Watch out!!!!" Several women screamed at the top of their lungs, causing Ye Huan''s face to change.
In the hostage crowd, a short man with a sinister smile on his face stood up, drawing and raising a silver Desert Eagle that had been hidden at his waist.
Ye Huan''s gaze sharpened.
At this moment, the masked man who had consumed the yellow liquid had already burst towards him!
His speed increased several times over!
A vicious kick aimed at Ye Huan''s chest.
His strength multiplied several times over too!
Even Ye Huan dared not take it directly, he judged...
Judged that this kick could cause severe internal bleeding!
He instinctively shielded himself with his hands in front, yet his body was kicked to retreat dozens of meters to the left.
The short man''s Desert Eagle''s barrel was precisely aimed at Ye Huan''s retreating position.
His sinister smile grew wider as he slowly pulled the trigger!
This isn''t a pistol!
This is... a machine gun masquerading as a pistol!
In one second, thirty bullets fired!
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
A series of gunshots rang out.
Ye Huan''s right hand was in his pocket, which he suddenly swung!
Thirty toothpicks shot out altogether!
"Bang!"
The sinister smiles on both the masked man''s and the short man''s faces froze.
Spitting out so many toothpicks in one second, is he even human!?
"Bastard, kill him!!!" The short man came back to his senses, cursing while hurriedly pulling out a magazine from his pocket to reload his pistol.
"Who do you want to kill!"
"Go, beat him to death!"
Su Qingqing cursed and then stood up.
A vicious low kick nearly popped the eyes out of the short man''s sockets.
Zhang Huimin and others also raised their toes, kicking the short man who howled endlessly.
Even as he fell to the ground, the women did not spare him!
They stomped on his most vulnerable spot!
All the men present felt a chill in their lower body!
The masked man felt it too.
While he was in a daze...
"Bang!!!!!!!!"
Ye Huan delivered a blow that shook the masked man''s organs, causing him to vomit blood incessantly.
Moreover, Ye Huan''s punch, with its immense force, transmitted from his abdomen throughout his entire body!
Crushing his skull and spine into dust!
Yet, the masked man wasn''t dead!
His face twisted, looking terrifying like a fierce ghost.
Not dead yet, Ye Huan sent him to death!
"Boom!!!"
Ye Huan''s extremely fierce kick hit him directly in the abdomen.
In an instant, the masked man''s body flew twenty meters away!
Ye Huan dashed to where hended, and with a sudden chill in his eyes,unched an upward strike, sending his body flying into the air, organs shattered!
Then, Ye Huan leapt into the air!
From above, with the masked man staring in boundless fear, he stomped down with tremendous force!!!!
"Bang!"
From that point on, every blood vessel in the masked man''s body burst open, and hey on the ground utterly motionless.
Ye Huan brushed the right side of his shirt, dusting off a speck of dirt.
With a cold face, he walked towards the short man being violently beaten by the women on the main stage.
Seeing Ye Huan walking towards him step by step, the short man howled in panic, terrified out of his wits.
The masked man, the masked man who took the potion, was actually killed by him with one punch!
Is this guy even human!
The short man gritted his teeth and made a few hand gestures...
Suddenly, a surge of power burst forth!
Pushing back the women, he dashed towards the exit of the venue!
He wanted to escape!
Ye Huan charged several dozen meters before swiftly reaching for the door with his right hand!
This grab seemed to be aiming for his neck!
But Ye Huan''s right hand formed a fist!
"Thud."
The short man transformed into a pile of illusions, dissipating into the air.
Ye Huan''s eyes turned cold again.
Japanese ninjutsu!?
"..."
The fight stopped, and the venue fell into an eerie silence.
A few minutester...
Realizing that this young man had taken down all the thugs!
The hostages among the audience, initially shocked, cheered and rushed out of the venue!
They raced to get out!
This was a second chance at life!
Outside the venue.
"Celestial Strategy, what are you doing!"
"Didn''t you hear the gunfire inside?"
"Why did you forbid the organization from rescuing them?"
"You should know, among the hostages, your son is one of them!"
Li Shen, hearing themotion from inside the venue, was anxious beyond words, repeatedly suggesting to send a team of elite operatives to sneak into the venue, execute the mission, eliminate the thugs, and rescue the hostages.
But Ye Tiance''s response was: "Haha, it''s fine!"
The moremotion inside, the more Ye Tianceughed!
This time was no different!
Ye Tiance patted him on the shoulder, "Haha, it''s fine!"
Li Shen, being patted on the shoulder, trembled slightly with a very unpleasant expression.
Did Ye Tiance find his son and be so happy that his intelligence dropped!
No choice.
He walked to the front passenger seat of a ck sedan next to the venue.
"Dad, please persuade Celestial Strategy to listen to my suggestion!" Li Shen said.
In the car was the Patriarch of the Li FamilyLi Hentian.
His expression was stern and solemn, holding a lit slim cigarette in his hand.
After receiving Li Shen''s call, he rushed to Bird''s Nest immediately.
But he didn''t participate in themand, just sat in the car, quietly watching Bird''s Nest.
No matter how many times Li Shen spoke to him, he stayed silent.
Chapter 480 - 470: Li Hentian, Yes Clubhouse!
"Dad, what are you thinking? Your grandson is inside, and he could very well be hurt by the criminals." Seeing that Li Hentian still ignored him, Li Shen angrily pped the car door.
"Noisy!"
Li Hentian reprimanded in a deep voice.
"Dad, don''t me me."
"I''m just worried about your grandson, worried about the hostages inside!"
"There was such a bigmotion just now, so many gunshots, the criminals might have..."
Li Shen anxiously tried to speak but was interrupted by Ye Tiance, who patted him on the shoulder.
"Haha, don''t worry, nothing will happen inside." Ye Tianceughed heartily, his face full of cheer.
"..."
Li Shen couldn''t help but want to curse.
He took a deep breath, held back the urge to swear, but still angrily shouted, "Ye Tiance, you''re really outrageous. If something happens to your son, you won''t even find a ce to cry..."
Before he could finish, he heard sounds of crying and joyful sobbing nearby, and he was stunned.
Why so suddenly noisy?
Looking in the direction of the sound, he was instantly taken aback.
Countless people were flooding out of the venue!
"What''s going on!" Li Shen was utterly incredulous, his eyes wide open.
Did the criminals have a change of heart and release the hostages?
That can''t be right!?
The next second, a special forces officer with a shocked expression came running over.
"Chief, all the criminals are...dead. Except for three seriously injured hostages, who have been sent to the hospital, everyone else is unharmed!"
"I know. Go maintain order." Ye Tiance, as if he had expected it, wasn''t surprised at all and waved with a smile.
The special forces officer nodded and jogged away.
At this moment, a group of people walked over.
"All taken out?" Ye Tiance asked with a smile, as if basking in the spring breeze.
"All taken out," Ye Huan replied casually.
"Dad?"
Nearby, Li Luo called out.
Ye Huan was stunned and only then realized, the old man in the passenger seat of the Red g car looked very familiar!
He looked like... the old man who frequently appeared on television and in the news.
The Patriarch of the Li FamilyLi Hentian!
"Young friend, may we have a talk?" Li Hentian smiled, ncing at Ye Huan.
"No..."
Ye Huan was about to refuse when he suddenly thought of the women behind him...
If he went back with them...
The situation could be very hard to control...
So it''s better to use this opportunity to avoid the heat!
Thinking of this, Ye Huan changed his tune: "Alright."
"Then you all head to Ye''s Clubhouse. I''ll arrange it for you," Ye Tiance said with a smile.
Li Hentian took a drag of his cigarette and smiled, "Sure. Young friend, are you getting in the car?"
"You go ahead, I''ll be thereter."
Having not fully epted the existence of his parents, let alone meeting his grandfather for the first time, sharing a car would definitely be awkward.
So Ye Huan simply refused.
After the ck sedan with Li Hentian left, Ye Huan briefly said goodbye to the women, drove the BMW Mini, and went to Ye''s Clubhouse.
Watching the BMW Mini drive away...
Li Shen waspletely flustered amidst the constant sirens of ambncesing in and out of the venue...
Taken out?
Taken out.
Who was taken out, it must be the criminals!
Need to know, those criminals were from the top mercenary groupDark Reaper!
All taken out by Ye Huan alone!?
Thatbat power, it''s simply terrifying!
Who is he!?
Ye Tiance and Li Hentian must know, but they''re not saying!
Thinking of the way he looked anxious earlier...
Li Shen''s face turned red.
He underestimated Ye Huan!
...
Capital City, Ye''s Clubhouse.
Ye Huan drove the BMW MINI and parked in the parking lot of Ye''s Clubhouse.
At this moment, besides the BMW MINI, there were several just-turned-off top supercars in the parking lot.
Lamborghini Venenoworth 14 million.
Rolls-Royce Frozen Throneworth 13.5 million.
Lamborghini Gran Coupeworth 10 million.
As Ye Huan got out of the car, the doors of the three luxury cars also opened, and six people got out.
Among the six, there were two familiar faces. Seeing them, Ye Huan frowned.
"What a nuisance!" Nan Zhen spat disdainfully after seeing Ye Huan, cursing silently that enemies always meet.
With a wave of his hand, he led the five people beside him away.
The previous embarrassing incident still weighed on his mind.
If it weren''t for the urgent matter at hand, he would''ve surely taught Ye Huan a lesson!
Among Nan Zhen''s group, one person avoided eye contact and kept his head down, seemingly not wanting Ye Huan to see him.
Su Qingqing''s older brotherSu Zhiqiang!
Ye Huan frowned even more deeply, but didn''t pay much mind to this little episode as he headed towards Ye''s Clubhouse.
Ye''s Clubhouse is one of the two super clubhouses in the Capital City, situated at the absolute city center.
For many in the elite circles, dining here is seen as a lifetime honor.
Unfortunately, very few possess a membership card for Ye''s Clubhouse and the privilege to dine here.
This leads to Ye''s Clubhouse being open daily throughout the year, yet it often has no visitors, sometimes not a single customer for weeks or months.
Today, however, it was particrly lively.
In the spacious lobby, a beautiful waitress was checking the white card in her hand.
Opposite her were seven or eight young men dressed in custom suits, looking like wealthy heirs.
"Gentlemen, please follow me. Since your membership cards are one-time use, I''ll be taking the card now," the beautiful waitress sweetly smiled, gesturing towards a private room on the first floor.
"Miss, could you exchange WeChat contacts?" Nan Zhen grinned, showing a set of gleaming white teeth.
"Sir, I''m sorry." The beautiful waitress smiled sweetly again and gestured "please."
The waitstaff at Ye''s Clubhouse are under the protection of the Ye Family.
Nan Zhen dared not use force and felt somewhat regretful.
However, business mattered more.
"By the way, that guy isn''t with us." Nan Zhen pointed at Ye Huan and then led the remaining five into the depths of the first floor.
The beautiful waitress became anxious and hurriedly blocked Ye Huan, saying, "Sir, please show your membership card."
Membership card?
Ye Huan thought Ye Tiance had made a reservation, so he was surprised to be stopped.
Could it be that Ye Tiance didn''t make a reservation?
Never mind, a membership card then. After getting rid of the Zhong Family that night, didn''t Ye Tiance give him a ck Gold Card during their conversation? It should suffice.
Ye Huan pinched a card in the pocket on the right side of his pants.
Just about to take it out.
"Hold on!"
Nan Zhen halted his steps.
He nced at Su Zhiqiang and suddenly asked, "Zhiqiang, do you know this guy?"
"I... I..." Su Zhiqiang was evasive, looking extremely embarrassed.
Nan Zhen clearly had a conflict with Ye Huan.
How did Ye Huan get involved? He really didn''t know what was good for him!
Who was Nan Zhen? The third young master of the first-tier family in the Capital Citythe Nan Family!
Su Zhiqiang was truly in a dilemma.
On one hand, someone who could bring him lifelong honor, the chance to dine at Ye''s Clubhouse, was Nan Zhen.
On the other hand, Ye Huan had done him a favor, providing him with 150 million startup capital to establish himself in the Capital City.
After weighing his options, Su Zhiqiang felt that he couldn''t pass up the opportunity to enjoy the honor.
Dining at Ye''s Clubhouse... was once too distant for him, but this opportunity now wasn''t one to miss.
As for Ye Huan, he could repay him double the moneyter and appease him a bit!
After all, the gap between him and Ye Huan was already significant!
He was no longer someone Ye Huan could easily win over; maintaining a certain distance was necessary.
"Brother Zhen, I''m... I''m not familiar with him!" Su Zhiqiang replied, gritting his teeth and avoiding looking at Ye Huan.
"Not familiar?" Nan Zhen looked amused, patting Su Zhiqiang''s shoulder. "How can you not be familiar? I''m not very educated, don''t cheat me, kid. I know him. He''s quite close with your sister, isn''t he? You should know him well, right?"
"Really not familiar, Brother Zhen, believe me, and my sister has nothing... to do with him!" Su Zhiqiang urgently said.
"Oh? Is that so?"
"I was going to say, since you know him, I would give him a meal as charity."
"Since you don''t, then never mind."
Nan Zhen sighed helplessly.
Su Zhiqiang was taken aback, then ted, "Brother Zhen, why not... just grant him a meal? If he had some favor with me before, it would be great if you could grant him a meal, allowing me to sever ties with him."
"Is that so..." Nan Zhen rubbed his chin, feigning difficulty while secretly forming a mocking smile, "Very well, I''ll ''grant'' him a meal."
As he spoke, he emphasized the word "grant" heavily.
His words were filled with pity towards Ye Huan.
Leaving this remark, Nan Zhen led the group into the private room.
Su Zhiqiang pulled Ye Huan aside, his expression serious, "Ye Huan, please be respectful to those young masters during the meal, and it''s best to serve them tea and wine with me. Let me tell you, they''re the sons of top-tier families in the Capital City, and their families wield immense power. Instead of currying favor with me... if you could use this chance to win them over, you''d benefit greatly."
Currying favor with you?
Ye Huan raised his eyebrows.
Just as he was about to speak.
Su Zhiqiang had already entered the private room.
Ye Huan was somewhat dissatisfied with his attitude and previous words.
But, considering that he was Su Qingqing''s brother, it would be rude not to greet him and just leave.
He followed into the private room.
Chapter 481 - 471 Apologize?
"As expected of Ye''s Clubhouse, incredibly luxurious."
"This chair, made entirely of Xishuangbanna oak, probably costs hundreds of thousands each."
"And this crystal ceiling, you can''t get it done for less than four or five million. This is just the ''simplest'' first floor and it''s alreadyparable to the most luxurious private room at my family''s clubhouse."
"Our family clubhouse is the same; the most luxurious private room can only bepared to the ''simplest'' of Ye''s Clubhouse, perhaps even slightly inferior."
Everyone sighed in awe.
The Ye Family was indeed extraordinarily wealthy.
The private room wasn''trge, but the tables, chairs, benches, walls, and floors were all made of extremely expensive materials.
They were the scions of top-tier families.
The Li FamilyLi Yuncang.
The Xue FamilyXue Changfeng.
The Sheng FamilySheng Tianming.
The Wang FamilyWang Sicong.
They had seen the world and had wealthy families, yet were still amazed by the scale of Ye''s Clubhouse.
A few of them sat around arge round table.
"If it weren''t for Brother Zhen, we might never set foot in Ye''s Clubhouse in our lifetime."
"Come on, Brother Zhen, a toast to you!"
"By the way, Brother Zhen, how did you get this membership card?"
Wang Sicong and the others warmly toasted Nan Zhen.
While Su Zhiqiang was busy pouring drinks for them at the side.
"This is nothing, really."
"As for the membership card, didn''t my dad get pped into the ICU by the Crown Prince?"
"I found it rummaging through his room."
"Originally... never mind, it''s nothing."
As Nan Zhen said this, his gaze fleetingly disyed a trace of resentment when he nced at Ye Huan.
He had nned to gain Su Qingqing''s approval at a concert, and after it ended, surprise her by taking her to Ye''s Clubhouse, giving her a glimpse of high society, andpletely winning over this beautiful secretary of the Li Corporation''s chairman.
Unexpectedly, a wrench was thrown in his ns, leaving him utterly humiliated in front of millions of viewers at the concert!
He reckoned he not only failed to please Su Qingqing but also made her dislike him.
He had no choice but to take a step back, bringing a bunch of cronies to Ye''s Clubhouse to lift his spirits, nning to trouble the "intruder" afterwards.
Who would have thought that enemies would meet on a narrow road, and this kid came right to him.
Ye Huan, you dared to embarrass me at the concert venue, so don''t me me for being ruthlesster!
I''ll make you so ashamed you''ll want to crawl into a hole but won''t find one!
"Zhiqiang, aren''t you going to introduce your friend?" Nan Zhen swirled his wine ss and spoke in a low voice.
"Brother Zhen, I... I''m not really friends with him, just an acquaintance at most, don''t misunderstand." Su Zhiqiang said awkwardly.
Faced with Nan Zhen''s cold gaze, Su Zhiqiang shivered.
Feeling somewhat regretful for bringing Ye Huan in to "piggyback," he didn''t dare hesitate any further and hurriedly introduced, "He''s Ye Huan, the husband of Liu Tianyun, the eldestdy of one of the four great families of Celestial SeaLiu Family."
"..."
"Is that all?" Nan Zhen frowned and asked.
Su Zhiqiang, somewhat perplexed, still nodded and answered, "That''s... that''s all."
"Let me add a few points for you."
"First, he''s the one who opposed me, Nan Zhen, and disgraced me in front of countless people."
"Second, he''s your sister Su Qingqing''s man."
"Third, not only did he oppose me, steal my woman, but he also cost me a billion, wasting two billion, making the total three billion I spent go down the drain."
With a cold expression, Nan Zhen extended a finger with each point he made.
Su Zhiqiang was increasingly shocked with every point he heard.
"..."
As Nan Zhen''s words fell, the private room fell into an extremely eerie silence.
Everyone''s gaze turned towards Ye Huan, who was leisurely sipping tea.
"Kid, what do you mean by this?"
Wang Sicong and the others spoke with a sinister tone, their expressions turning hostile.
This little circle of theirs was centered around Nan Zhen, who had been their leader since childhood.
Anyone who was at odds with Nan Zhen was essentially at odds with them, and they couldn''t stand it.
"I don''t mean anything."
Ye Huan casually replied, then looked at Su Zhiqiang, "I''ll be going first..."
"How can you be so clueless!"
"If you offend Brother Zhen like this, I can''t protect you!"
Before Ye Huan could finish, Su Zhiqiang interrupted him with a look of heartfelt distress.
Then, with an angry face, he said, "And my sister, it''s enough that you fawn over me, but why do you want to get involved with my sister?"
"Get involved?" Ye Huan''s expression was not pleased.
But before he could argue.
Su Zhiqiang shouted, "Quickly, apologize to Brother Nan andpensate him three hundred million!"
Ye Huan frowned deeply, his face looking a bit unpleasant.
This Su Zhiqiang, how did he be so snobbish?
Little did he know, his unpleasant expression in Nan Zhen''s eyes meant embarrassment...
Nan Zhen secretly enjoyed it immensely.
On the surface, he waved dismissively, looking disdainful, "Three hundred million, I don''t care, as for an apology... it''s unnecessary. His status isn''t worthy of a conversation with me, Nan Zhen."
Su Zhiqiang chuckled awkwardly twice.
Seeing Ye Huan unresponsive, he pped Ye Huan''s shoulder hard and said, "Brother Zhen is being magnanimous, and you''re not overflowing with gratitude, thanking him!"
Ye Huan raised an eyebrow.
About to speak, but always interrupted discourteously.
"No need, he''s not worthy."
"Alright, no more talking to this ''thing'', it''s a waste of breath."
Nan Zhen impatiently waved his hand.
After taking a sip of wine, he sneered coldly, "But you know, there are always ungrateful people in this world like a white-eyed wolf."
"..."
After a moment of silence, Su Zhiqiang hurriedly said, "Ye Huan, Brother Zhen is upset, quickly toast Brother Nan a ss, apologize, and thank him for bringing you to dine at Ye''s Clubhouse."
Ye Huan raised an eyebrow, "Apologize to him? Thank him? Why?"
"Why? Boy, you got to bask in Brother Nan''s glory, dining at Ye''s Clubhouse, enjoying a privilege countless people dream of, and you don''t know how to be thankful!"
The eldest son of the Wang Family, Wang Sitsong, was the first to attack, heavily smashing his wine ss on the table.
"Exactly, it''s absolutely outrageous!"
"I''ve seen disgusting, but never this disgusting!"
"Boy, do you understand the value of Ye''s Clubhouse?"
Several young masters nearby echoed in agreement.
"Su Zhiqiang, how could you deal with such a person who doesn''t know what''s good for him?" Wang Sitsong cursed again, his face very displeased.
"Brother Sitsong, he... he might just not know how valuable Ye''s Clubhouse is!"
"After all, Ye''s Clubhouse is beyond what ordinary people can imagine!"
Su Zhiqiang awkwardly tried to exin twice.
"Then why haven''t you quickly told him the value of Ye''s Clubhouse, let him know how much grace from Brother Zhen he is under?" Wang Sitsong shouted.
"Yes... yes!"
Su Zhiqiangughed dryly, cleared his throat, then sternly said, "Ye Huan, quickly toast Brother Zhen a drink, or if he''s angry at you, I can''t protect you. Also, Brother Zhen is only showing you this favor because of me, don''t be ungrateful. Do you know how valuable this meal is? Don''t follow me and freeload a meal, thinking Ye''s Clubhouse is a ce anyone can enter."
Indeed, Su Zhiqiang believed Ye Huan deliberately followed him to Ye''s Clubhouse to ingratiate himself with the Huang Family''s son-inw.
Ye Huan held significant power in Celestial Sea.
Butpared to the Capital City, Celestial Sea was nothing.
The four major families of Celestial Sea were also nothingpared to the Capital City.
That''s why he thought Ye Huan was trying to curry favor with him, hence his words to give Ye Huan a verbal warning.
"Let me tell you, Ye''s Clubhouse is owned by the Ye Family, one of the two super prestigious families in Huaxia, the Ye and Li Families, and it''s a pavilion for hosting guests."
"A membership card here, even just a single-use one, would probably fetch a billion or higher at the ck market auction!"
"Because throughout Capital City... no, all of Huaxia''s upper circles, people regard this ce as one of the ''pces,'' treating a meal here as a lifelong honor, a lifetime of pride."
"Originally, I, Su Zhiqiang, didn''t even have the qualification to dine here; it was all thanks to Brother Zhen''s kindness that I got such a chance, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
"You, Ye Huan... perhaps it''s safe to say, you may never have a chance in your lifetime!"
"But basking in Brother Zhen''s favor, to be able to dine at the same table with him, you think you should offer him a drink, showing respect and gratitude?"
Su Zhiqiang''s voice was cold, staring directly at Ye Huan.
Ye Huan raised an eyebrow again, "Why should I show respect and gratitude to him? Also... you''re Su Qingqing''s older brother, and somewhat my friend; if you want to dine at Ye''s Clubhouse, just let me know, no need to curry favor with these people or act as theirckey."
Lackey?
For a moment, Su Zhiqiang''s face turned red.
He was furious, pointing vigorously in the air as he voiced his anger:
"Ye Huan, who do you think is trying to establish connections, and who is your half-friend?"
"Moreover, I know about you and Qingqing, just a fake couple, don''t foolishly believe it can turn into something real."
"Qingqing is no longer a small sales department manager at Tianyun International; she''s now... a secretary to the chairman of Li Corporation, someone you can''t reach, understand!"
Chapter 482 - 472: Haha, this kid is pretty tough!
On the side, listening to Su Zhiqiang''s deafening speech, Nan Zhen''s expression was extremely colorful.
Fake couple?
Could it be that this kid is just a shield that Su Qingqing found!?
Very likely!
Otherwise, how to exin that both Su Qingqing and Ye Qiqing seem interested in this kid?
One is a bumpkin from the Celestial Sea, the other two are top figures in the upper circles of the Capital City, their status doesn''t match at all!
Ye Qiqing must be cooperating with Su Qingqing to put on an act, trying to scare him, Nan Zhen, away, making him think Ye Huan is something remarkable, so he''d never dare to harass "Ye Huan''s woman" again Su Qingqing.
Haha, it''s definitely like this!
Nan Zhen almostughed out loud.
Fake couple, great, if they''re fake, then chasing Su Qingqing isn''t hopeless for him!
But speaking of which, at the concert, those two women really could act.
But it doesn''t matter.
Thinking this through, Nan Zhen feltpletely at ease.
At this moment.
After Su Zhiqiang cursed him out, he pped a check in front of Ye Huan.
Ye Huan frowned, "What''s this supposed to mean?"
"Back then, I sold the vi you bought me for 150 million."
"Now I''m paying you back double, here''s a total of 300 million!"
"From now on, we owe each other nothing, and don''t ever think about cozying up to me and Qingqing again, the two of us siblings are no longer someone you can reach."
"Now, I want you, this ungrateful thing, to get out!"
Su Zhiqiang pointed outside, shouting harshly.
Ye Huan''s face turned cold.
For someone like this, in the Dark World, his method of handling would be summed up in one word: kill!
But Su Zhiqiang is different.
After all, he''s Su Qingqing''s biological brother.
Out of respect for Su Qingqing, he couldn''t kill him.
Ye Huan got up coldly and left the private room.
"Haha, this kid is pretty tough, actually not shamelessly staying here mooching meals, enjoying the glory."
"Exactly, he even thought that if Su Zhiqiang just wanted toe here and greet him, he coulde. Does he think this is a vegetable market?"
"No, this kid''s surname is also Ye. Could he think this Ye''s Clubhouse is family-owned?"
"Or maybe, he thinks he''s the Crown Prince?"
Wang Sicong and othersughed and mocked out loud.
"Zhiqiang, you handled this really well!"
"With someone who only boasts, it''s best to cut ties early!"
"Come, sit next to Brother Zhen, let Brother Zhen properly toast you, toast my future brother-inw!"
Nan Zhenughed heartily, pulling Su Zhiqiang to sit next to him.
Su Zhiqiang was ttered, repeatedly saying, "It''s my duty, my duty, if not for Brother Zhen, I would have realized it muchter, thanks so much for Brother Zhen''s teachings."
"Haha, no need to thank!"
"Come, a toast to my little brother-inw!"
Nan Zhenughed loudly several times, toasting with Su Zhiqiang along with Wang Sicong and the others.
The white wine in the cup emptied in one gulp, Nan Zhen''s lips curled up, looking content.
Seeing Ye Huan lose such face and scurry out of the private room, he was over the moon inside.
Ecstatically over the moon!
The feeling of pping someone''s face, that''s just so satisfying!
The concert grudge was finally avenged!
Ye''s Clubhouse, truly one of the top two exclusive clubs, had floors made entirely of crystal, the kid couldn''t even find a ce to bury himself, haha!
Also, after this incident, the kid should realize just how big the gap is between him and the young masters of Capital City, right?
Dancing with Lilith...
No, Lilith?
Why would Lilith dance with Ye Huan, and even take him as a pole?
Nan Zhen''s brows furrowed into a tight ck line, puzzled beyond belief.
Just then.
"Big shot... Mr. Big shot, you... you''re invited upstairs!"
"All the private rooms are yours to choose, just let us know which one you want, we''ll prepare the meal at the highest standards!"
"If you need any other services, just let us know!"
Suddenly, eximed voices came from outside the private room!
Called a big shot by Ye''s Clubhouse''s staff!?
Invited upstairs!?
And, choice of private room, highest standard meal!?
Chapter 483 - 473: This Membership Card Is Definitely Fake!
For a moment, Nan Zhen and others, including Si Cong, were all stunned!
As they regained theirposure, they were overjoyed!
A big shot!
This is definitely a big shot among big shots that has arrived!
A big shot at Ye''s Clubhouse
Could it be one of the prominent young members of the Ye Family?
If they could seize this opportunity to make connections, the benefits would be unimaginable!
"Bang!"
Nan Zhen was the first to rush out of the door!
Wang Si Cong, Su Zhiqiang, and others followed closely behind.
But upon reaching the clubhouse''s lobby, they were dumbfounded.
The "big shot" in front of the beautiful waitress turned out to be Ye Huan, who had just fled from the private room dejectedly!
How could this waitress be so careless!?
"What kind of service are you providing? Don''t you believe we could report you?" Nan Zhen yelled angrily.
He grabbed the ck Gold Card from the waitress''s hand.
Smashing it heavily onto the ground.
Lifting his toe!
"Snap!"
A stomp crushed the ck Gold Card.
The waitress was immediately stunned.
"You waitress, how can you be so careless? A fake card could fool you?"
"A big shot? If this kid is a big shot, then I''m the big shot among big shots!"
Nan Zhen stood with his hands on his hips, looking displeased.
Wang Si Cong and the others felt the same.
They never thought that the big shot they wanted towork with would turn out to be such a thing.
"Kid, you''re quite thorough."
"Even got a fake membership card?"
"Do you know what kind of people can actually possess a ck Gold Card from Ye''s Clubhouse? Let me tell you, only the absolutely prestigious big shots and outstanding members of the Ye Family can have it."
"If you''d gotten some kind of temporary membership card, or a lower-level yellow membership card, maybe you could have actually slipped in."
"What a pity, you''ve overdone your act, got yourself a ck Gold Card. Are you trying to make meugh to death, so you can inherit my Ant Financial credit line?"
Nan Zhen and others pointed at Ye Huan, speaking mockingly with contempt.
Su Zhiqiang''s face showed a bit of reluctance.
After all, Ye Huan had given him some startup funds, although they had already cut tiespletely, he felt he should give him onest word of advice.
Su Zhiqiang stepped forward, patted Ye Huan on the shoulder, and sighed, "Ye Huan, I know you want to act like a big shot, but impersonating a guest of Ye''s Clubhouse has consequences you can''t bear. So, I''d advise you to head back to Celestial Sea quickly, and stop ''harassing'' me and Qing Qing in Capital City. She and I are no longer the kind of people you can associate with"
"Enough!"
Suddenly, a stern shout.
The beautiful waitress snapped back to reality, hurriedly picking up the pieces of the ck Gold Membership Card from the ground.
She was furious, giving Nan Zhen a hard shove, "What are you doing!"
Caught off guard, Nan Zhen fell on his backside.
He red angrily, his eyes wide open.
In all his life, this was the first time a waitress had pushed him to the ground; he wished he could make this waitress disappear from the world!
But this waitress was of high status, being part of Ye''s Clubhouse, and could not be touched!
However
Though he couldn''t touch her, he could still shout!
"What am I doing? I should be asking you what you are doing. Is this how you treat the clubhouse''s esteemed guests? I want to report you, file aint against you!"
After standing up, Nan Zhen pointed at the waitress''s nose and berated her.
"Report me? After breaking a big shot''s membership card, you still want to report me!?"
"Security!"
The waitress shouted.
Immediately, thirty security guards armed with batons, wearing sunsses, standing two meters tall entered.
This scene almost made Nan Zhen wet his pants on the spot.
The security at Ye''s Clubhouse were rumored to be former Special Service Bureau operatives, this this isn''t to be messed with!
Nan Zhen wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, swallowed hard, and said, "Miss, let''s talk things over, there''s there''s no need to call security, right?"
Chapter 484 - 474: Welcome to Your Arrival, Black Gold Member!
"No need? The production cost of this card alone is in the tens of millions, representing an invaluable high-status identity. Is it something you can destroy?"
The beautiful waitress shouted angrily, spraying spit onto Nan Zhen and Wang Sicong''s faces.
In their hearts, they cursed the waitress for her low intelligence.
A little bit of intelligence would tell anyone that this card is fake!
Such a pretty boy, could he be someone of high status?
Intimidated by the thirty security guards, Nan Zhen didn''t dare to act out.
He pointed at the card fragments and said, "Take a closer look, this membership card is definitely fake!"
"Fake!?"
The waitressughed out of extreme anger.
She found a piece from the card fragments.
ced it horizontally in front of Nan Zhen.
She scolded, "General Celestial Strategy''s signature, could that be fake?"
With those words.
Nan Zhen was immediately stunned.
Wang Sicong and the others were the same.
Their hearts started to be uneasy...
No way?
A ck Gold Card with Ye Tiance''s personal signature, it can''t be fake.
"This... this signature is a forgery." Nan Zhen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, shouting.
He was unwilling, and didn''t dare to believe that this ck Gold Card was real.
If this card was real, and he damaged Ye''s Clubhouse''s ck Gold Card...
The consequences would be unimaginable.
"Forgery? Including me, all of Ye''s Clubhouse''s staff memorizes all ck Gold Card signatures to not neglect top-tier guests. You''re questioning my professional ability by saying this signature is fake!?"
"Or do you think anyone would dare to be so bold as to forge General Celestial Strategy''s signature?"
The waitress red angrily at Nan Zhen.
"I think this guy dares." Nan Zhen pointed at Ye Huan, angrily used, "Oh, you''re bold, even forging General Celestial Strategy''s signature, aren''t you afraid of death."
Ye Huan couldn''t be bothered with him, looking indifferent.
This made Nan Zhen even angrier.
Truly pretending, let''s see how long you can keep this up!
"I think your professional ability is wed, the signature is undoubtedly fake. You don''t even see if this guy has the qualifications to have a ck Gold Card from Ye''s Clubhouse." Nan Zhen turned the attack towards the waitress.
The waitress was furious.
"Fine, then I''ll input the card number, let you see if it''s real or fake!"
"Daring to step on and crack Ye''s Clubhouse''s ck Gold Card, you''re stepping on Ye''s Clubhouse. I''m curious to see what consequences you can bear."
The waitress sneered and retrieved a machine from the rest area.
In front of Nan Zhen and the others, she input the set of card numbers engraved on the ck Gold Membership Card.
Nan Zhen and the others felt a bit panicked.
Just as the waitress said, stepping on Ye''s Clubhouse''s ck Gold Card is akin to stepping on Ye''s Clubhouse, which means stepping on the Ye Family...
Stepping on the Ye Family... that''s seeking death...
The few nced at Ye Huan.
Seeing his calm and unchanging expression, they felt a bit uneasy.
Looking so confident, could this card actually be real?
No way...
Ye Huan, a bumpkining to the Capital City from Celestial Sea, how could he have a ck Gold Membership Card from Ye''s Clubhouse?
This is just delusional!
He''s staying calm right now, surely he''s pretending.
Yes, pretending!
Nan Zhen and the others steadied themselves, their throats moved with difficulty, and their eyes turned to the machine in the waitress''s hand.
At this moment, the card number was inputted.
The waitress pressed the "Verify" button.
On the machine screen, the progress bar began to roll, and a cold female voice was emitted.
"Verifying, please wait..."
Nan Zhen and the others looked expectant.
The next second, they were all dumbfounded!
"Ding!"
The machine emitted a green light.
"Wee, distinguished ck Gold memberMr. Ye Tiance." The machine''s cold female voice sounded again.
Chapter 485 - 475: The Clown Turns Out to Be Me!
This membership card is real!
Nan Zhen, Su Zhiqiang, and the others werepletely stunned!
You''ve got to be kidding me!?
The ck Gold membership card in this bumpkin''s hand from Ye''s Clubhouse is actually real?!
How is this possible!
No way...
The question now is not how the kid got a ck Gold Card.
But rather...
How are they going to clean up the mess after stepping on this ck Gold Card...
"Do you have anything to say now!?" The waitress, hands on her hips, red angrily.
Nan Zhen and his group shivered all over, cold sweat pouring down.
He looked desperately at his "good brothers" and asked, "What do you think I should do..."
Before he finished asking...
"Not close."
"Just acquaintances, really not close!"
"We and him... not familiar!"
Wang Sicong and the others ran off even faster!
This card was stepped on by Nan Zhen.
It has nothing to do with them!
They definitely didn''t want to share the wrath of the Ye Family with Nan Zhen!
"Damn it, don''t run!"
Infuriated, Nan Zhen shouted towards the door.
Wang Sicong and the others hesitated for a moment, then ran even faster!
Compared to "good brothers," their own lives were more important!
"Stop right there, you heartless bunch, don''t run if you have the guts, I''ll kill you!" Nan Zhen cursed before chasing outside.
But the next second, he was on the verge of tears.
"Whoosh!"
Several figures blocked the clubhouse entrance.
Their expressions were stern and eyes full of malice.
Nan Zhen''s face turned pale.
He knew his chance to slip away amidst the chaos waspletely gone.
And that ungrateful lot, Wang Sicong and his crew, were utterly detestable!
He brought them to Ye''s Clubhouse to enjoy, yet when trouble arose, they just bolted like they were rushing to be reincarnated, outpacing each other.
"Now let me ask you again, is this card fake?" The waitress questioned sharply.
Nan Zhen, on the brink of tears, turned his head and shook it.
"Daring to disrespect a ck Gold member of Ye''s Clubhouse and even breaking the ck Gold membership card, you''ve really got some nerve!"
"Are you the third son of the Nan Family?"
"Go ask your dad if he dares to break a ck Gold membership card of Ye''s Clubhouse!"
"Ask if he dares to make trouble in Ye''s Clubhouse like this!"
The waitress, unrelenting, red with anger, her spittle flying onto Nan Zhen''s face.
Nan Zhen wiped the spittle and cold sweat from his brow, then lowered his head like a reprimanded schoolboy.
His dad was naturally the Nan Family Patriarch who was just pped into the ICU by the "Crown Prince of Huaxia."
There was no need to ask those questions.
Nan Zhen was one hundred percent sure his dad wouldn''t dare.
It would be suicide.
"I''m heading up now, handle things here," Ye Huan said casually, not wanting to waste time.
"Yes sir, please go ahead."
"Also, I apologize for failing to stop this person from damaging the membership card, but please rest assured, I will give you a satisfactory resolution."
The beautiful waitress bowed apologetically to Ye Huan.
Ye Huan didn''t respond, trusting her to manage the situation.
His gaze fell on Su Zhiqiang, who was standing dumbfounded and hadn''t run off with Wang Sicong and others, and he said calmly, "Now that you''re so snobbish, how are you different from Zhang Ruya back then?"
Coldly saying this, he ascended the stairs without turning back.
Su Zhiqiang snapped back to reality, shivering from the remark.
Yet he paid no mind to the content of the words, only felt regret!
Regretted it utterly!
The ck Gold membership card in Ye Huan''s hand was actually real!
A pretend VIP? Ye Huan is the real VIP!
The ck Gold Card is the highest level membership card of Ye''s Clubhouse, allowing a choice from the lowest to the highest in both private rooms and dining standards.
Ye Huan saying toe to Ye''s Clubhouse for a meal and just let him know...
Was genuine.
Just mentioning Ye Huan''s name grants the top-tier ck Gold member treatment like him!
Recalling the words of disdain he previously said about Ye Huan...
Su Zhiqiang just felt that his intellect was sorelycking.
And he told Ye Huan, it''s an honor to be invited here by Nan Zhen, and he should toast to Nan Zhen, thanking him?
He is a ck Gold member!
A ck Gold member humbling himself to amon room on the ground floor was in deference to Nan Zhen, bringing honor to him!
Who should be toasting...
No, who should be bowing in respect was Nan Zhen.
Su Zhiqiang truly believed his intelligence had reached irretrievably low levels.
If he could be on good terms with Ye Huan, he could dine at Ye''s Clubhouse whenever he wanted.
Bringing others wouldn''t be an issue!
Moreover, bringing others would shower him with looks of respect and gratitude, skyrocketing his status in the Capital Citythis is true glory.
But not only did he fail to befriend Ye Huan, he even told Ye Huan not to "suck up" to him, or his sister.
That was akin to actively breaking ties with Ye Huan!
What a situation this was!
Su Zhiqiang couldn''t understand why Ye Huan had a ck Gold membership card from Ye''s Clubhouse.
But he knew he had actively severed ties with Ye Huan, a ck Gold member of Ye''s Clubhouse, and subsequently with a prominent figure.
Su Zhiqiang looked devastated, feeling that even if scientists developed idiot pills, they wouldn''t cure his condition, considering himself as maxed out on the idiot scale.
At this moment.
Ye Huan''s figurepletely disappeared up the stairs, and the beautiful waitress, lifting her head, turned angrily to Nan Zhen.
"I... I..." Nan Zhen wore a face of misery.
"What do you mean I!"
"The card costs thirty million to make,pensating ten times isn''t excessive, is it?"
Chapter 486 - 475: The Clown Turns Out to Be Myself! _2
"Hurry up and pay!"
The waiter shouted angrily while extending his hand.
Nan Zhen cursed internally.
Originally, three billion were lost because of this brat Ye Huan.
And now? Because of this brat again, another three billion are at stake.
What bad luck!
Also, demanding ten times thepensation is not excessive? It''s too much!
But, daunted by the intimidation of those security guards who were former Special Service soldiers, he only dared toin internally.
After cursing in his mind, Nan Zhen remained very obedient on the surface, pulling out a checkbook and writing a string of numbers on it with a "swish, swish, swish."
Starting with a 3, followed by eight zeros.
Three billion.
Seeing him being sopliant, the anger on the waiter''s face dissipated a little.
Then she brought over an A4 sheet of paper and a pen, throwing it at Nan Zhen''s feet, "Apology letter, five thousand words."
Nan Zhen was furious.
Five thousand word apology letter!?
To make him apologize to Ye Huan, how is that possible!
It''s very possible...
Seeing the fierce light in the eyes of the burly security guards nearby, Nan Zhen promptly knelt to the ground, picked up the pen, and began writing "swish, swish, swish" on the paper.
As he wrote the apology letter, he felt immense humiliation.
First ridiculed by thousands at the concert venue, reduced to a clown.
Then, intending to enjoy glory with "good brothers" at Ye''s Clubhouse to improve his mood, but instead, his mood worsened!
Forced to lie on the ground, writing an apology letter like an animal guarding the door!
Originally nning to disgrace Ye Huan, taking revenge, but ended up shooting himself in the foot.
So humiliating!
He never expected that the ck Gold Membership Card in Ye Huan''s hand would be real.
Recalling before entering the private room, thinking Ye Huan wanted to freeload, he told the waiter, "This kid is not with us."
Causing the waiter to stop Ye Huan, and nning to humiliate him by potentially "treating" him to a meal, Nan Zhen felt his face burning with shame.
Does someone with a ck Gold Membership Card need to ride on the coattails of his temporary membership, the shabbiest box? Does he need to ept his "charity"? Absolutely not!
On the contrary, Nan Zhen now hoped Ye Huan would "treat" him, take him to a high-ss box upstairs for a meal, that would be prestigious.
Thinking back, insulting Ye Huan as a country bumpkin in the box, letting Wang Sichong others hype up the awesomeness of Ye''s Clubhouse and how honorable it is to eat there...
Nan Zhen felt like a clown!
Boasting about Ye''s Clubhouse in front of a ck Gold member of Ye''s Clubhouse, isn''t he a clown?
The clown turned out to be himself.
Nan Zhen wrote diligently, finishing the five thousand word apology letter in ten minutes, and handed it to the waiter with both hands.
The waiter snatched the paper from him and began to read.
Seeing the words filled with a sincere apology attitude, just short of calling Ye Huan "grandpa," the waiter''s expression improved slightly.
"Go home and tell your father, your Nan Family is forever cklisted from our Ye''s Clubhouse! No member of the Nan Family or their dogs are allowed to set foot in Ye''s Clubhouse again!"
The waiter pointed to Nan Zhen and Su Zhiqiang, saying, "Throw these two out for me!"
"Yes!"
...
"Ouch, damn, it hurts like hell."
Nan Zhen was kicked out of the door frame by Ye''s Clubhouse security, falling to the ground, eating dirt, moaning twice.
Su Zhiqiang also inhaled sharply.
The security at Ye''s Clubhouse are all former Special Service soldiers; one kick almost sent them to heaven.
"You''re quite loyal, didn''t run off with those heartless bastards."
"Hurry up, let''s go, enough shame here."
After pulling up Su Zhiqiang, Nan Zhen dragged him to the parking lot and got into the Lamborghini Veneno.
The sports car roared away.
"Why do you look like you''ve lost your parents?" Nan Zhen driving, nced at Su Zhiqiang in the passenger seat.
Su Zhiqiang''s face was ashen and he remained silent.
He was still immersed in regret over voluntarily breaking ties with a big shot.
"Damn it, can''t you hear me talking?" Nan Zhen got a little upset.
"I...I can hear you." Can''t lose favor with another big shot, Su Zhiqiang hurriedly responded.
"Good that you can hear. You know that brat Ye Huan, give me a proper introduction about him." A sh of resentment crossed Nan Zhen''s eyes.
Ye Huan repeatedly embarrassed him, reduced him to a clown, how could he swallow this?
But he didn''t dare to act rashly.
If what Su Zhiqiang said is true, and Su Qingqing and Ye Huan are fake lovers, then Ye Qiqing covering for them makes sense.
But would Ye Qiqing give Ye Huan the ck Gold Membership Card from Ye Tiance just to merely cover for them?
Yes, Nan Zhen believed that the ck Gold Membership Card from Ye''s Clubhouse, with Ye Tiance''s personal signature, was given to Ye Huan by Ye Qiqing.
Nan Zhen now suspected that Ye Huan had another identity!
With the same surname as Ye Qiqing...
The term "Huaxia Crown Prince" shed in his mind, causing his body to tremble.
Could it be that Ye Huan is Ye Qiqing''s brother, who temporarily didn''t have a membership card at Ye''s Clubhouse, so she got one from Ye Tiance and gave it to Ye Huan!?
That exnation seemed too far-fetched and imusible, even Nan Zhen didn''t believe it, but he still suspected and felt uneasy.
"Hurry up and speak, tell me everything you know," Nan Zhen urged.
Su Zhiqiang nodded, didn''t hide, and recounted everything from meeting Ye Huan through Su Qingqing, to the white-eyed wolf Zhang Ruya, anding to the Capital City, telling it all to Nan Zhen.
Nan Zhen frowned.
This information waspletely useless, it was almost the same as what he had found out.
However, the mention of "Tianyun International Security Team Leader" slightly eased Nan Zhen''s suspicion of Ye Huan being the "Crown Prince."
Probably not possible.
The four families of Celestial Sea are at most third-tier families in the Capital, barely touching the edge of second-tier families at most.
Who is the Crown Prince? The first grand young master in Huaxia history, flowing with the blood of two super wealthy Ye and Li families.
Such a young master marrying a wife is likely the granddaughter of some powerhouse from Dragon Gate; at worst, she''d be the eldest daughter of a first-tier family in the Capital. How could he marry a country bumpkin eldest daughter from a backward ce like Celestial Sea?
Even if he did marry, he wouldn''t reduce himself to a security team leader at a smallpany under her wing, right? This level of self-debasement is equivalent to an emperor bing a foot soldier!
It seems this kid just happens to have the same surname as Ye Qiqing, no blood rtion whatsoever, let alone being the Crown Prince.
After analyzing, Nan Zhen nodded to himself, feeling that his analysis made sense.
Having analyzed Ye Huan wasn''t the Crown Prince, the resentment in Nan Zhen''s eyes was no longer concealed.
As for why Ye Huan could obtain the ck Gold Membership Card...
A little thought, and Nan Zhen understood the situation.
It must be Ye Huan ckmailing Ye Qiqing, saying something like:
"If you don''t lend me the ck Gold Card for one time, let me go to Ye''s Clubhouse for a meal and show off, I''ll tell Nan Zhen that I''m just a cover, letting him continue to bother Su Qingqing."
Such words, h h, threatening Ye Qiqing, that''s how he got Ye Tiance''s ck Gold Card from her.
Daring to threaten Ye Qiqing, this kid really is not afraid of death.
Nan Zhen sneered inside.
But it''s also good, Ye Huan''s threat to Ye Qiqing will definitely fuel her anger, and lead to Su Qingqing''s displeasure.
So, when he, Nan Zhen, shows his skills and punishes Ye Huan, not only will it appease Ye Qiqing''s anger and win her favor, but he also has a chance to gain Su Qingqing''s fondness.
Two birds with one stone.
Nan Zhen smirked cunningly.
"Ye Huan, you dare to threaten Ye Qiqing, truly digging your own grave!"
He made up his mind.
He would find an opportunity to punish Ye Huan.
And before punishing Ye Huan, he''d contact Ye Qiqing, and join forces with her for a good lesson to this reckless brat!
Chapter 487 - 476: Miss Di Family?
Ye''s Clubhouse, top floor private room.
It''s hard to imagine that the most "luxurious" private room in Ye''s Clubhouse, which is the top floor, would be so simple, just like the living room of an ordinary residential building in the 1980s.
The four walls are all snow white, and the floor is covered with ayer of cement, with the tables and chairs even somewhat rickety.
A thinyer of spiderwebs has formed next to an ordinary incandescentmp on the ceiling.
"Young friend, care for a drink?" Li Hentian smiled as he opened the cap of a Moutai bottle beside the table in the center of the room.
"Your blood pressure''s a bit high; it''s better not to drink this stuff." Ye Huan propped his chin with his hand, sitting casually opposite Li Hentian, casually saying.
High blood pressure?
Li Hentian sighed, "As expected of a disciple of ''that elder.'' Not only are your kung fu skills excellent, but your medical skills are also exceptional. You spotted my condition at a nce."
Ye Huan didn''t reply, but he was quite surprised inside.
''That elder,'' does this mean Li Hentian knows about Master Dog''s existence?
As if he could see through Ye Huan''s thoughts, Li Hentian smiled and said:
"He and I, you could say, have been old friends for decades."
"I just never expected that my old friend would quietly take you back as a disciple and raise you."
"You''ve had a rough time all these years."
"It''s nothing tough." Ye Huan looked indifferent.
"Waging war in the Dark World for seven years and achieving the position of God of ughter, how can that not be tough?" Li Hentian said.
Ye Huan poured himself some tea, took a sip, and said, "It''s alright. Over the years, it''s mostly been thrilling yet without danger."
"Your health condition allows for at most half a cup; otherwise, you risk a stroke." Seeing Li Hentian pour himself wine, Ye Huan reminded him.
He could tell at a nce that Li Hentian had previously suffered a sudden stroke due to high blood pressure.
"I know my limits."
Pouring about half a small cup, Li Hentian took a sip, then put down the wine ss, inteced his fingers, resting them in front of him.
Still smiling, he changed the topic and asked, "When do you n to go home?"
His "going home" naturally referred to returning to recognize one''s ancestry.
"Unsure." Ye Huan gave a vague answer as he indeed wasn''t sure when he would "go home."
He didn''t reject the Ye and Li families.
He just needed some time to ept it.
"As you wish, but as long as you return home, I''ll join Old Man Ye and prepare a grand ceremony for you."
"At that time, it''ll also help you deal with the major marriage issue."
Li Hentian took another sip of liquor, looking calmly at Ye Huan.
Sensing there was more to Li Hentian''s words, Ye Huan frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"
Li Hentian gently swirled the wine ss in his hand and said, "From birth, you''ve had a marriage arranged, and after so many years, it''s time to fulfill it."
Ye Huan was very displeased and said coldly, "I''m already married."
He hadn''t even acknowledged his ancestry yet, and they wanted to control him like the other juniors?
"Having an extra concubine is no harm."
"You must remember, besides being God of ughter, you are blood of both the Ye and Li families, flowing with their blood."
"Your marriage was destined from birth."
"As an heir of Huaxia''s two great aristocratic families, your wife was meant to be the Guardian God of Huaxia for all eternity, the eldest daughter of the top family in the Dragon Gatethe Di Family..."
Before Li Hentian could continue, Ye Huan''s eyes turned cold, and he interrupted him, "You want to use me for an alliance marriage?"
Li Hentian ignored Ye Huan''s words and continued speaking.
"But you''ve already married, and have many other women,pletely losing the qualification to marry the Di family''s eldest daughter."
"However, among your wives and concubines, one must be from the Dragon Gate. Because you were born with the mission of strengthening the rtionship between the Huaxia government and the Dragon Gate."
"I''ve already chosen a candidate for this woman, and I assure you, you''ll be satisfied. Although her family''s status in Dragon Gate is not as high as that of the Di Family and cannotpare to the Ye and Li families in Huaxia, she''s more than suitable as your concubine."
Li Hentian spoke calmly, as if long ustomed to issuingmands from a high position, and his words carried not a hint of negotiation, like delivering orders to subordinates.
His whole demeanor exuded the aura of a natural superior.
Ye Huan sneered and said, "I haven''t even acknowledged my ancestry yet, and you''re already plotting to send me into an arranged marriage?"
"This is your destiny, not my scheme..."
"Then let me tell you, I will never marry this woman; I have no interest in that Di family''s eldest daughter. If there''s nothing else, then goodbye." Ye Huan coldly interrupted Li Hentian, mmed the table, and headed for the private room door.
Li Hentianughed twice, shook his head as theughter stopped, and said smiling:
"Even if you were interested in the Di family''s eldest daughter, you wouldn''t have the slightest chance. Let me tell you, she is the most talented genius in the Dragon Gate in a thousand years, except for your master, and her current achievements are no less than yours."
"Countless men want to marry her. Originally, given your talent and aplishments, plus your pre-existing marriage arrangement with her, marrying her was the natural course of events. But I don''t know what madness my old friend was under to have you marry a ''flower vase'' woman with no family background matching yours and no aplishments."
"By marrying her, youpletely lose the chance with the Di family''s eldest daughter."
"Within three days, write a ''breach of marriage apology letter'' for me, and I''ll have it delivered to the Di family''s eldest daughter on your behalf, cancelling this marriage arrangement gracefully."
"As for the other woman..."
"Believe me, you''ll obediently marry her."
Li Hentian took another sip of the liquor in the cup, smiled, and said meaningfully.
But beneath his eyes, there was a flicker of anger,
The anger shed when mentioning "old friend''s madness."
Ye Huan stopped in his tracks, his face very unsightly.
He just expressed a disinterest in this woman, and Li Hentian wouldn''t stop bbering.
The tone and words made one feel an urge to hit him.
Initially looking like an amiable old man, how did he suddenly be so irritating?
As Ye Huan left, he mmed the private room door hard, expressing his displeasure.
With a loud "bang."
In the private room, Li Hentian took out his phone and made a call.
"Old Qin."
"My grandson and your granddaughter''s marriage can be finalized."
"But..."
Five minutester, on the other end of the phone, a calm voice said, "Isn''t doing this inappropriate?"
Li Hentian, expressionless, said calmly, "As long as the goal is achieved, there''s no such thing as inappropriate."
Chapter 488 - 477: More Qualified Than You!
"Sir, this is the three hundred millionpensation from Nan Zhen, along with his letter of apology."
"As a punishment, the clubhouse has cklisted the entire Nan Family, permanently banning them from entry."
"The new membership card is being expedited, may I ask..."
Just as Ye Huan stepped into the first-floor lobby, the attractive receptionist approached with a check and an A4 paper, presenting them in front of Ye Huan.
She blinked a couple of times, tentatively continuing to ask, "Should the new card be delivered to you, or to General Ye Tiance?"
"Send everything to Ye Tiance."
Ye Huan didn''t take the check and the A4 paper; he just waved them away and walked out of Ye''s Clubhouse.
...
Walking down the street, Ye Huan''s expression still wasn''t very pleasant.
Themanding tone and manner of Li Hentian made him extremely dissatisfied.
As for the so-called mission of marrying into the Dragon Gate, that annoyed him even more.
And a "trophy" woman?
No matter what, isn''t it his ce toment?
That old man deserves a beating!
Besides, what era is this, and they''re still ying matchmaking games?
And the purpose is marriage!
Ridiculous!
That Di Family''s eldest daughter really got hyped up by that old man.
"A marriage apology letter?"
An apology letter too?
Ye Huan decided, to write a divorce letter and send it over to Li Hentian!
Once he put that matter aside, he began to think about where to spend the night.
In short, he couldn''t run into those women!
He didn''t want to get caught up in any trouble.
Just find a random ce to sleep for the night.
Ye Huan yawned and walked towards the parking lot of Ye''s Clubhouse.
But soon, his face turned dark.
"If I run now, would I make it?" Ye Huan asked with a darkened face.
"We''re not bad people, why are you running?" Lilu smiled, grabbing Ye Huan''s arm so he couldn''t escape even if he wanted to.
Behind her.
Liu Tianyun.
Su Qingqing.
Zhang Huimin.
Tang Yao.
Ye Qiqing.
Lilith...
Not a single woman missing.
Ye Huan''s face was lined with embarrassment.
The main reason he came to Ye''s Clubhouse with Li Hentian was to avoid these women.
After all, if things got chaotic, he wouldn''t be able to control it...
But who would have thought they''d alsoe to Ye''s Clubhouse.
"So, how was the conversation with ''him''?" Lilu asked with a smile.
"Not very pleasant," Ye Huan replied.
Lilu was stunned, then looked helpless, "Your grandpa''s way of speaking is a bit blunt. He''s not very flexible. Just bear with it."
"Okay, enough about that." Mentioning that old man always made Ye Huan angry, so he changed the topic and asked, "What are you all doing here?"
"Waiting for you, what else? I told Mom, knowing your personality, you''d probably be unreachable after leaving Ye''s Clubhouse, so we had a meal and came at just the right time to catch you." Lilith shouted from the side.
Ye Huan staggered and almost fell face-first to the ground.
Why is it always you causing trouble!?
"Lilith, aren''t you embarrassed? What is your rtionship with Ye Huan that you''re calling Aunt Li your mom?" Before Ye Huan could hold Lilith ountable, Su Qingqing, who had been fed up with Lilith for a while, couldn''t hold back.
She pointed at Lilith''s nose and scolded fiercely.
Lilith raised her eyebrows, crossed her arms, "Am I embarrassed? Su Qingqing, I think you''re just jealous. You secretly want to call her ''Mom,'' but you have no right."
"What qualifications do you have? Do you think you''re Ye Huan''s wife? Let me tell you, Ye Huan''s wife is right here!" Su Qingqing pointed to Liu Tianyun.
This obviously touched a nerve for Lilith.
During the years she was gone, "he" was snatched by Liu Tianyun. Outwardly, she didn''t care, but inwardly she was furious.
Suppressing her anger, she retorted, "Su Qingqing, darling has already got me! Whether I qualify or not, when ites to calling ''Mom,'' I''m more qualified than you!"
Chapter 489 - 478: Storm and Tempest
"You..."
Su Qingqing was furious, and she really couldn''t rebut.
So she had to vent her anger on someone else.
She looked at Ye Huan, biting her teeth hard: "You''re really dumb! Do you think women are that easy to get? A woman like her taking her down is like losing years of your life, do you even know that!"
The "woman like her" in Su Qingqing''s words naturally referred to Lilith.
Ohe on, you guys argue all you want, but why drag me into it?
And by the bird''s nest, it was the two of you fighting, now it''s still the two of you. Are you just natural enemies?
Ye Huan only dared to mutter in his heart because saying it out loud would definitely cause more dissatisfaction among the two women, making the situation even harder to control.
He cleared his throat and said, "You all need to calm down..."
"Losing years of your life? Attacking me personally because you can''t win the argument? Let me tell you, no matter what you say, I have been taken by darling, go on and be jealous and envious!" Lilithpletely ignored Ye Huan and retorted Su Qingqing.
"Dare to unt such a thing, your skin is really thick!" Su Qingqing gritted her teeth, fiercely drawing her fingers in the air twice, to show her anger.
"Su Qingqing, you''re jealous of everything. Not only are you jealous that darling took me, but you''re also jealous of my thick skin. You''re truly a woman full of nothing but jealousy, not deserving of my darling at all. You should go back to wherever you came from." Lilith mocked coldly.
"Jealous of your charm? I''m going to fight you!" Su Qingqing was sessfully provoked and flew into a rage, swinging her pink fist towards Lilith.
"Enough of this."
Ye Huan was terrified of hair-pulling incidents, so he hurriedly restrained Su Qingqing.
"Let me go, I''m going to fight her!" Su Qingqing struggled persistently.
"That''s enough!"
Ye Huan suddenly shouted angrily.
Which really scared Su Qingqing into quieting down.
"What''s all the yelling for? Fighting like this on the street, aren''t you embarrassed?"
Seeing that Ye Huan was actually angry, Lilith and Su Qingqing both dared not make a sound and slightly lowered their heads.
In terms of household authority, Huan has it under control.
He capitalized on the situation and scolded them again:
"Look at yourselves, what do you even look like!"
"Arguing on the street is one thing, but fighting too!?"
"If you''re not embarrassed, I am embarrassed!"
The two women''s heads hung even lower.
"You should both reflect well on yourselves!" Ye Huan red at the two of them fiercely.
"Darling, I... I''m sorry, I didn''t mean to..."
"Yeah, Ye Huan, I''m sorry. I... I didn''t want things to be like this either, it''s all her fault, she''s too annoying..."
The two women said with aggrieved expressions, pouting.
"Huan, look, you''ve scared them, just forgive them." Even Lilu didn''t expect Ye Huan to be so angry and aftering to her senses, hurriedly helped speak for her darling daughter-inw.
"Yeah."
The women on the side chorused in agreement.
But the next second, seeing the BMW Mini roar like a rocket and dart out, their faces all changed!
It''s a trap!
"Everyone, sleep well tonight!"
Ye Huan''s mischievousugh echoed in the air.
Just as he was about to step on the gas...
The cold stare from the women made him shiver all over.
Huan knew that if he dared to run, what awaited him would be a storm of revenge...
Little did he know, even if he didn''t run, what awaited him was still a storm of revenge...
And not just any storm, a thunderstorm...

Chapter 490 - 479: Divorce?
Outside the Fourth Ring of the Capital City, a tree-linedmunity.
Almost no one could imagine that General Ye Tiance, a national star, and former business queen of Huaxia, Liluo, were not living in a mansion, but in a very ordinary, inconspicuous small residential building.
More than twenty years ago, the two settled here.
Afraid that their son who might return home suddenly would not find the house, they never moved away.
The house is small, only seventy or eighty square meters, crowded with nearly ten people, very cramped.
In the living room, Liluo sits in the center of the sofa.
Lilith and Su Qingqing, likepeting, are on either side, hugging her arms tighter and tighter.
The other women are also sitting nearby, squeezed on the same sofa.
Ye Huan sits on a bench directly opposite the sofa, holding a cup and drinking tea, a face full of ck lines.
He was clean in his dealings, and he knew he was innocent, as most of these women were merely friends.
But all these women were interested in Brother Huan, getting jealous of all the other women, and they simply wouldn''t believe Brother Huan!
In his heart, countless Divine Beasts were rampaging.
Of all the oues, he never thought these women would encounter each other.
It''s all Lilith''s fault, with nothing better to do,ing all the way to Huaxia for a concert?
It''s fine to hold a concert, but provoking the situation!
It''s fine to provoke, but then bringing Liluo and others to Ye''s Clubhouse to block him!
Are they trying to kill Brother Huan!
The more Ye Huan thought about it, the angrier he became, ring at Lilith with displeasure.
But in the next second, he was red back by Liluo.
"Come on, exin yourself." Liluo spoke.
"Exin what?" Ye Huan said, face darkening.
"Exin what these women are to you."
"You''re clearly already married, yet you''re still flirting outside."
"Are you worthy of Tianyun?"
Liluo questioned, her expression serious.
On the surface, but her heart was blooming with joy.
A Lilith on the left, a Su Qingqing on the right, so many lovely daughters-inw beside her.
Simply marvelous!
But no matter what, a wife is still a wife.
Liu Tianyun is Ye Huan''s legitimate wife, and as a mother-inw, she has the duty to soothe the feelings of this "number one daughter-inw," thus questioning Ye Huan.
Ye Huan truly found it difficult to speak.
He didn''t want to flirt, but his natural masculine charm bewitched these women.
"Exactly, it was only a few years of separation, and you found so many women. Finding women is one thing, but not even a call to ask my permission? Do you think you''re being fair to me?" Lilith spoke up, using Ye Huan.
Ye Huan almost spat old blood.
He gritted his teeth and said: "You''re all mistaken."
"Mistaken about what? With so many women present, you still have the nerve to argue?"
"Qingqing, you all, do you like him?"
Liluo held Su Qingqing''s hand and asked.
Su Qingqing''s face immediately flushed to her ears, her head slightly lowered, not daring to answer.
She liked Ye Huan, but Ye Huan had no interest in her.
Though she didn''t answer, her reaction spoke volumes.
Zhang Huimin''s reaction was exactly the same as hers.
As for Tang Yao... her face was also slightly red.
There was no denying it, from Ye Huan stepping up to save her and her mother and sister, to rescuing her father from the casino, and then the face-scarring healing process, she developed some feelings for Ye Huan.
Lilith, on the other hand, was very straightforward, "Super like."
"Enough!!!"
Suddenly, Liu Tianyun shouted hoarsely from the side.
It immediately startled Liluo, Lilith, and the others.
Dead silence.
"Tianyun, you" Liluo was also a little frightened, quickly holding Liu Tianyun''s hand,forting her: "Tianyun, don''t get angry. I''ll help you teach this rascal a lesson"
"Divorce!"
Before Liluo could finish speaking, Liu Tianyun directly spat out the word, staring straight at Ye Huan.
Chapter 491 - 480: His Identity in the West, Beyond Your Imagination
Ye Huan was stunned.
Not only was he stunned.
Everyone in the living room was stunned.
Then...
"No way!"
"Tianyun, how can this be!"
"You absolutely cannot divorce!"
Li Luo urgently blurted out.
Liu Tianyun didn''t say a word, her face still severe, looking at Ye Huan.
She really couldn''t help it and felt powerless, only to utter those two words.
She realized that, among these women, she had nopetitiveness.
And, thinking back to the ballroom where Ye Huan gave forting" nces to the other women, telling them not to worry.
Except for her!
This made her heart sink directly to the bottom.
Now, these women confessing their liking for Ye Huan right in front of her, the rightful wife, made her explode.
"Liu Tianyun, I advise you not to be impulsive."
At this time, Lilith crossed her long legs, propping them up and looking at Liu Tianyun with furrowed brows: "There''s no man better than him in this world."
"So what?"
Liu Tianyun gritted her teeth and retorted.
"If you divorce him, you''ll definitely regret it for the rest of your life." Lilith shrugged.
"Lilith, you''re so annoying with your condescending tone!"
Liu Tianyun snapped angrily.
"You all calm down." Ye Huan stood up and used his body to block the sight lines between the two women.
Damn, Liu Tianyun''s temper is worse than Su Qingqing''s. If she and Lilith start fighting...
The consequences are unimaginable!
Lilith looked indifferent and did not intend to stop talking.
"So what if I''m annoying, my good tone is only for my darling, as long as he likes me, it''s fine."
"You..."
Liu Tianyun pointed at Lilith, choked with anger.
She took a deep breath and then turned her gaze to Ye Huan''s face, speaking in a low voice: "Divorce!"
"Are you serious?" Ye Huan frowned.
"Anyway, you have them, and you don''t need me." Liu Tianyun gritted her teeth, clenching her pink fists with a wronged expression.
"He indeed doesn''tck you, a woman."
"A man like him will neverck women, neither you nor me."
"You may not know his true identity, but I can tell you that in the West, it only took him seven short years to rise from a nobody to one of the most powerful figures."
"In the past millennium, only two people have achieved this level, and he is one of them. Among these two, he is more outstanding, having climbed to a higher position at a younger age."
"After marrying me, he will dominate the Western world, meaning half of the Earth!"
"Can such a powerful man be controlled by one or a few women? Even if he opens a harem for three thousand people, I won''t care."
"I only know, what I should do is be his wise partner, help him keep the home stable, and let him have no worries while doing his own things outside."
Lilith wiggled her toes a couple of times and, after withdrawing her gaze from Liu Tianyun, added: "I was just advising you a few words earlier. But if you can''t be his wise partner or haven''t prepared yourself for the thought of sharing him with other women, then you all better divorce sooner rather thanter."
These words seemed to be spoken to Liu Tianyun, but were also addressed to the other women in the hall.
For a moment, all the women''s heads drooped down, their expressionsplex.
Liu Tianyun was feeling quite ashamed and angry.
As a wife, knowing nothing about her husband''s matters, yet an "outsider" knows more than her, how could she bear it?
"Marrying you, he can then rule the Western world?"
"Lilith, are you implying that your father is the President of America or the EU leader?"
Liu Tianyun''s questions brought a mocking arc to the corner of Lilith''s lips.
Her mocking smile made Liu Tianyun''s face even worse.
"If you''re still clinging to this exasperated mindset, I suggest you leave Ye Huan as soon as possible."
"You two... are not suitable."
Chapter 492 - 481 Deception
After mockingly saying these two sentences, Lilith picked up her handbag and smiled sweetly at Lilu.
"Alright, mom, it''s gettingte, I''ll go back to rest first. You should go to bed early too."
With that, she gave Lilu a peck and turned to leave.
This caused Lilu to blush bright red.
At the side, Ye Huan frowned deeply, put down his teacup, and stood up to follow her out.
"..."
There was a moment of silence in the living room.
A strange silence fell.
Though Lilith''s words seemed directed at Liu Tianyun, they reverberated in their minds.
Leaving them withplicated feelings and expressions.
They were aware of Ye Huan''s strength and mystery.
But the way Lilith described Ye Huan''s identity left them a bit breathless.
One of the most powerful individuals in the Western world?
Besides his identity, the mental preparations Lilith wanted them to make left them feeling rather sour.
Sharing Ye Huan with other women was something they could do, but the jealousy was inevitable.
After about ten minutes of silence.
The women stood up one by one, said their goodbyes to Lilu, exchanged phone numbers, and left.
Only Ye Qiqing and Liu Tianyun remained.
Lilith''s mocking smile and the words, "You two are not a match,"
left Liu Tianyun feeling aggrieved.
Even when she was bullied at the welfare center, ostracized and bullied at the Liu Family, at school,
she had only cried a few times.
And it was only at the welfare center, after Ye Huan drove away the bad kids, that she couldn''t help but cry a few times in Ye Huan''s arms.
But this time, true grievances brought her to tears.
She too wanted to know Ye Huan''s identity, to uncover all of Ye Huan''s secrets, but she had no idea where to start.
The fact that Ye Huan didn''t need her also filled her with a strong sense of insecurity.
"Tianyun, calm down, don''t do anything rash on impulse."
"You can''t just throw around talk of divorce without careful consideration."
Lilu held Liu Tianyun''s little hand and persuaded her again.
On the other side of the sofa, Ye Qiqing was also in a bad state.
What on earth is this!
From a young age, she had never had feelings for any man, yet in an instant, she fell in love with Ye Huan, who was like a god incarnate with a heartwarming demeanor.
But Ye Huan not only had a wife, his wife was her sister-inw!
Something even more dramatic than a Korean soap opera happened to her!
Ye Qiqing was in great difort.
Ye Huan is her brother, so she couldn''t even have the right to secretly love him.
What does secretly loving her own brother even mean?
Lilu looked at the two women, sighed deeply, and wrapped her arms around them, resting their heads on her shoulders.
She still hadn''t figured out how to talk about Ye Qiqing''s background.
But she knew it wasn''t the right time to talk about it now.
With so many women''s rtionships unresolved, adding Ye Qiqing would undoubtedly bring more trouble to Ye Huan.
She just had to dy it again.
As for Liu Tianyun, Lilu certainly didn''t want to lose this precious daughter-inw.
She must suppress her thoughts about divorce!
But, her emotions were currently at a low point.
Even if advised, she''d probably not listen now.
Lilu shook her head helplessly.
...
The Capital City, Huaxia''srgest international metropolis.
Evente at night, the streets were filled with a constant flow of vehicles.
By the roadside, Lilith didn''t mind her expensive dress getting dirty, sitting on the steps separating the sidewalk from the road, watching each car pass by.
"When did you find out?" Ye Huan sat beside her and asked.
"As I thought."
Lilith''s lips curled up.
Ye Huan''s face darkened, knowing he had been tricked.
"After the concert, at the venue, when mom and I ''drove away'' Diana before we left, she advised me."
"She told me to shout ''God of ughter'' if I ever faced a life-threatening situation, and the God of ughter would protect me."
"But at the venue, that so-called God of ughter didn''t save me, it was you who did, so I suspected that maybe you were the God of ughter."
"So I thought I''d trick you into confirming it."
"And I did, I''m pretty smart, right?"
Lilith looked smug.
Ye Huan sighed.
"He is one of the most powerful individuals in the Dark World."
Upon hearing Lilith''s words, Ye Huan initially thought she had discovered his identity as the God of ughter.
Who knew she was just probing.
After a while, Lilith seemed even more pleased, and said leisurely:
"The God of ughter, the greatest genius in the Dark World for a millennium."
"I mean, how could the man I fancy be anything less?"
"It''s Zeus that old man who doesn''t recognize talent, always ying spoiler for no reason."
At this point, Lilith''s expression suddenly turned displeased.
Ye Huan''s lips twitched.
Daring to speak of Zeus like that, perhaps only the eldest daughter of the Zeus family could.
There wasn''t much problem with revealing his identity to Lilith.
He shook his head, putting the matter aside, and changed the topic to business, saying: "When are you going back to the West?"
"I''m not going back, thisdy is already tired and ns to retire from the entertainment industry and settle in Huaxia." Lilith''s tone was rather "world-weary."
Ye Huan knew she was pretending, his face darkened: "I have no time to protect you, given your circumstances, it''s better for you to stay in the Divine King Hall and note out."
"My circumstances? You mean about the assassination attempts on me?" Lilith raised her delicate eyebrows and said: "Isn''t it natural for a husband to protect his wife? Don''t think that after taking me, doing the duties of a husband, you can shirk a husband''s responsibility."
"You..." Ye Huan gritted his teeth.
When it came to this area, he really couldn''t out-talk Lilith.
He could only change the topic, asking in a disgruntled tone, "Exactly what do they want to take from you?"
Lilith paused and then furrowed her brow, shaking her head, "I''m not sure either, that group has been attempting to assassinate me for six years, each time demanding I hand over something. But when I asked what they wanted me to hand over, they never say, always saying I know."
Ye Huan frowned, "Did you acquire anything special six years ago?"
Lilith shook her head, saying:
"I''ve thought carefully about this too."
"Even though I''m used to it, it doesn''t mean I like being assassinated."
"But thinking over and over, I really don''t know if I received anything special six years ago."
Throughout this conversation, Ye Huan''s frown deepened.
Who was Lilith? The daughter of Divine King Zeus.
Zeus, the undisputed ruler of the Western Dark World, anyone daring to repeatedly assassinate his daughter suggests Lilith possesses something very important and special.
And, undoubtedly, the opposing organization is not ordinary.
The masked man, near death, consumed that yellow liquid from the vial on his chest, not only instantly recovering his injuries but also boosting his strength to terrifying levels.
His overall strength increased from 50th on the Celestial God Rankings to 40th!
His most powerful kick''s strength even reached the equivalent of a full-force attack from someone ranked 20th on the Celestial God Rankings.
It must be noted that the gap between each ranking on the Celestial God Rankings is extremelyrge.
Ye Huan had never heard of any drug that could enhance strength to such a degree, like the one the yellow-masked man used.
How could such an organization that possessed such things be simple?
Ye Huan tentatively asked, "Do you know which organization is trying to assassinate you?"
"I don''t know."
"My dad knows, but he won''t tell me."
"I''ve just decided to not worry about it since he will send people to protect me."
Lilith looked indifferent.
Ye Huan couldn''t help but feel sheepish.
With such a powerful backing, she truly could do as she pleased.
However, Ye Huan didn''t want to ask too much. Knowing too much wasn''t a good thing, and he didn''t want to get involved in this trouble.
Let Zeus handle this headache himself.
After exhaling, he said, "Alright, no more talk about other things. Try to return to the West as soon as possible. I can''t spare the energy to protect you..."
Before Ye Huan could finish.
Lilith cut in sharply, her face displeased, interrupting, "If you keep trying to send me away, I''ll bring all my sisters to Huaxia."
Chapter 493 - 482: Civil Affairs Bureau!
This time, it was Ye Huan who almost spat blood!
Sisters?
The sisters Lilith mentioned, who else could they be!
The princesses from those countries!
Damn!
If theye, the situation will absolutely spiral out of control!
That''s a total of six people!
Twice the number of women!
Who could handle that?
"Just teasing you."
Seeing Ye Huan at a loss, Lilith smugly said, "I''ll be in Huaxia for another three days, then I''m going back to the West."
Ye Huan was taken aback.
Three days?
He breathed a sigh of relief.
But Lilith''s next words made him break into a cold sweat.
"After all, as one of your wives, I have an obligation to reduce your troubles."
"If I stay in Huaxia all the time, it will definitely distract you a lot."
"So I decided to go home and torment my dad instead."
Although a bit speechless, Ye Huan still heaved a sigh of relief.
The affairs of these women were already enough to leave him in a frenzy; he absolutely had no time to spare to protect Lilith.
"I suggest when you return to the West, stay inside the Divine King Hall and don''te out. The organization aiming to harm you is not simple. I suspect they haven''t sent their true experts yet."
"The current assassination attempts might just be to numb your dad, to lower his guard, making him think those trying to assassinate you are just some low-tierckeys."
"In the end, if that organization sends their true experts, Zeus won''t react in time, and you''ll be in real danger."
Ye Huan''s expression was very serious as he exined the pros and cons.
"..."
After a few seconds of silence, a yful curve appeared on Lilith''s lips.
She stretched out a slender finger, lifted Ye Huan''s chin, and joked, "Worried about thisdy, huh? So, does that mean I''vepletely conquered your heart, hmm?"
Ye Huan''splexion darkened, "Just a simple suggestion."
As he said this, he reached out to push away Lilith''s finger.
But at this moment.
Lilith suddenly grabbed his hand, turned him sideways, and directly pushed him down on the road, supporting herself with both hands beside Ye Huan, looking down on him.
Ye Huan''s face instantly turned ck as the bottom of a pot, "In broad daylight, what do you want to do!"
Lilith again stretched out a finger, teasing Ye Huan''s chin, and with a grin, said, "You know."
"..."
After a moment of silence.
"Oh?"
Ye Huan suddenly let out a meaningfulugh, turning the tables, causing Lilith''s face to flush red.
There were many vehiclesing and going here, it would be bad if seen.
Lilith pushed him slightly, her face a bit flushed, "Don''t rush, let''s go to the hotel. There are too many people on the street, it''s not a good influence."
"Go to the hotel?"
"Yes, hurry up, staying like this is not good if we''re seen."
"Then I think it''s better if you go by yourself."
Lilith: "..."
She was momentarily stunned.
Realizing what happened, Ye Huan was already waving as he ran away!
"Stop!!!" Lilith stood up and urgently shouted.
She wanted to chase after him, but wearing high heels left her powerless.
"Damn, he actually tricked me." Looking at the direction Ye Huan fled, Lilith gnashed her teeth in anger.
But he had already run, and she couldn''t do anything about it.
After a sigh, Lilith called her assistant and bodyguard, Diana, asking her toe and pick her up.
After hanging up the phone, she waited by the street.
It was still winter, and her dress was rather thin, a cold wind dispersed the mes in Lilith''s heart, making her feel a bit chilly.
She stomped her feet by the road and warmed her hands with her breath.
Half an hourter, a Maybach pulled up by the roadside and took her away.
At this time, Ye Huan walked out slowly from a nearby alley with his hands in his pockets, watching the car leave in the distance.
To ensure Lilith''s safety, he hadn''t gone far.
After a sigh of relief, he called Ye Tiance and asked him to send some female special agents to secretly protect Lilith.
Then he rented a room and went to sleep.
...
"Ring ring ring."
"Ring ring ring."
"Ring ring ring."
Ye Huan, with an impatient expression, woke up to the long ring of his phone.
He had already seen who the caller was.
Liu Tianyun.
But he didn''t pick up.
It was only eight in the morning, and he''d only slept for four hours.
But who knew, after hanging up, the call kepting, for more than half an hour, it was incessant.
Having no other choice, he pressed the answer button with an annoyed face, "What''s up, something urgent?"
"Go to the Civil Affairs Bureau, get a divorce!"
Chapter 494 - 483: After today, you and I owe each other nothing
Ye Huan was startled and frowned, "Are you serious?"
"What else?"
"I''m downstairs at mom''s,e pick me up."
"Let''s finalize this divorce sooner, you''ll be happy, and I... I''ll be happy too."
With that, Liu Tianyun hung up the phone.
Staring at the phone''s darkened screen, Ye Huan was dazed again.
Last night, he thought Liu Tianyun was just speaking out of anger.
Who knew she was serious.
But that''s fine, Liu Tianyun initiating the divorce was something he had been dreaming of.
Originally, Brother Huan nned to take Liu Tianyun back to the vige when there was nothing else and have her fulfill that long-dyed "request," which was for her to initiate the divorce.
Now it''s happening, and she''s bringing it up early.
Just as well, Brother Huan had long had enough of her bad temper.
The sooner the divorce, the better!
Happy!
For a moment, Ye Huan''s face, which was gloomy from interrupted sleep, cleared uppletely; he even hummed a jaunty tune.
After getting ready, checking out, and leaving, he drove straight to downstairs at Liluo''s house.
The hotel was not far from there, only a five-minute drive.
"No way!"
"Tianyun, don''t be impulsive!"
"Let''s talk about it, why do you have to get a divorce!"
"This rascal messed around outside and made you angry, sure, but let mom teach him a lesson, okay? Don''t get a divorce!"
By the roadside, Liluo was earnestly holding Liu Tianyun''s pale arm, persuading her with heartfelt words.
Seeing Ye Huan lower the car window, she hastily signaled to Ye Huan to soothe Liu Tianyun.
She didn''t want to lose such a precious daughter-inw.
"Make it quick." Ye Huan said coldly, then turned his head, pretending not to see Liluo''s suggestive nce.
"Mom, my mind is made up. Don''t try to persuade me."
"Between Ye Huan and me... fate is over!"
Liu Tianyun said apologetically and shook off Liluo''s hand, sitting in the front passenger seat of the Mini Cooper.
"Tianyun, give Xiao Huan another chance, give mom another chance. Let mom help teach this rascal a lesson!"
"Why can''t things be talked out without needing a divorce!"
Liluo clung to the car window, still pleading earnestly.
Liu Tianyun couldn''t bear to look at her, lowered her head, and said nothing.
The car started, shot out like a rocket.
Watching the car leave, Liluo extended her hand, wanting to plead.
But the Mini Cooper showed no sign of turning back.
"Cough. Cough."
Choking on the car exhaust, Liluo red furiously, teeth clenched.
Ye Huan ignoring her silent signals made her so angry that her teeth itched.
...
"Were you with Lilithst night?"
"Look at those dark circles, the tired look you have; you must have stayed up quitete with Lilithst night, right?"
In the front passenger seat of the Mini Cooper, Liu Tianyun folded her arms and let out a coldugh.
"What nonsense are you talking..."
Ye Huan frowned, just about to retort her, then felt it unnecessary.
He nodded, saying, "You''re really smart."
"You..."
Liu Tianyun was fuming.
She gritted her teeth, saying, "Does Lilith have such a great figure that you have to chase her down in the middle of the night?"
"Yes..." Ye Huan tut-tutted twice,ughed, "Absolutely amazing."
Liu Tianyun exploded, red at Ye Huan, said, "We haven''t even divorced yet, and you''re like this with her? You''re a married man, aren''t you afraid of heavens retribution..."
"To correct you."
"We''re in an arranged marriage."
"And, whether before or after the marriage, you said you wouldn''t interfere or inquire about anything concerning my private life."
Ye Huan''s words left Liu Tianyun speechless.
Indeed, both before signing the marriage agreement and afterward, she had clearly stated she wouldn''t meddle in Ye Huan''s private life.
Now it seemed like she was the one to me.
Liu Tianyun truly regretted saying those words back then!
"..."
After about two minutes of silence, Liu Tianyun slightly lowered her gaze and asked, "You really want to divorce me, don''t you?"
"Yes." Ye Huan admitted openly, saying, "That was the obligation you owed me, and I was waiting for you to initiate the divorce. After today, we owe each other nothing."
Those words cut like a knife, wounding Liu Tianyun''s heart.
Did she want to divorce because she didn''t like Ye Huan?
Not at all.
Actually, she doesn''t want to divorce.
Ye Huan was someone she had longed for over twenty years; with fate finally bringing them together, how could she willingly separate?
But knowing Ye Huan didn''t need her, had no ce for her in his heart, and with so many temptations around, she felt extremely insecure.
A strong, overwhelming sense of insecurity took over her heart.
She could endure anything but couldn''t bear insecurity.
Since childhood, she had been extremely insecure, being highly sensitive to this feeling.
She couldn''t cope with this insecurity and saw that Ye Huan didn''t care about her presence or absence, so after contemting all night, she decided to divorce him and let go.
That''s why, early in the morning, she bombarded Ye Huan with calls, urging him to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
"..."
Half an hourter, the Mini Cooper parked at the entrance of the Capital City''s Civil Affairs Bureau.
Seeing Ye Huan breathe a sigh of relief as if liberated, Liu Tianyun bit down on her teeth.
Could he really be this happy about separating from her?
Ye Huan was about to open the car door to get out.
"After the divorce, will we still be friends?" Liu Tianyun forced herself to speak without trembling, calmly delivering the phrase.
Ye Huan paused for a moment, then nodded and said:
"Of course, we''re not enemies; this marriage was forced upon us by others."
"Though we can''t be a couple, we should have no problem being good friends."
Liu Tianyun softly murmured, "Hmm."
She was still very unwilling.
But even if unwilling, what could she do?
She could only open the car door.
Together with Ye Huan, walking toward the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Chapter 495 - 484: Gossiping Old Lady
Early in the morning, there were around twenty-odd couples at the civil affairs bureau.
Some were getting divorced, some were getting married.
Divorces were moremon, and after more than half an hour in line, Ye Huan and Liu Tianyun finally started their paperwork.
"Hello, we''re here to get a divorce."
Ye Huan said to the clerk at the civil affairs bureau window.
"Okay, please hand over your ID cards."
The clerk, a woman in her fifties, without looking at Ye Huan, continued with her work.
Ye Huan and Liu Tianyun both took out their ID cards and handed them to the clerk.
The woman was stunned when she saw the photos on the IDs, quickly turned to look at them through the window, and was utterly shocked.
This man and woman look like a match made in heaven, how could they be getting divorced? It must be impulsive!
The woman felt the need to advise them, solemnly cleared her throat, and said sternly, "You two, as the saying goes, a day as a couple creates a hundred days of grace. Whatever issues you have, can''t you talk it over properly? It''s better to consider carefully before divorcing."
"We''ve already thought it through, please help us process it." Ye Huan replied.
The clerk furrowed her brows.
She had worked at the civil affairs bureau for decades and had her own way of interpreting people''s expressions.
This guy had a look of nonchnce, as if he didn''t care about the divorce at all.
But this girl...
The moment she saw Liu Tianyun, she noticed the hint of reluctance in her eyes.
The clerk had seen many couples like this, where one was indifferent, and the other was unwilling.
Usually, the unwilling one was the one emotionally hurt.
Sigh!
The woman sighed and then criticized:
"Young man, don''t mind me saying this."
"Your wife is as beautiful as a Celestial Immortal, a beauty on par with Diaochan in this world."
"Having such a pretty wife is the dream of many men, yet here you are, not appreciating what you have, flirting with others. Aren''t you ashamed?"
"Young man, listen to this olddy''s advice, apologize properly to your wife, and don''t let such a good girl down."
Hearing the woman''s words, Liu Tianyun''s expression eased significantly, even casting a smug nce at Ye Huan.
Ye Huan, however, was as dark-faced as a pot''s bottom and said, "Ma''am, we''re here toplete the divorce paperwork. Can you hurry up?"
"Hehe, you young people never listen to advice."
"I don''t want to be a bothersome gossip, but you''ll surely regret losing such a wonderful wife."
Saying that, the woman impatiently threw their IDs onto the counter and pointed to a photo room on the right, "Go in there and take a photo; you can get the certificate once you bring it back."
Not be a gossip?
Your tongue is already long enough, okay!
Ye Huan muttered in his heart with a ck face, then headed straight to the photo room without looking back.
Liu Tianyun followed behind with her head down.
After taking that gray divorce photo, the two returned to the service window.
"We''re done with the photo, please process the certificates. Thank you." Ye Huan shouted, handing over the photo.
The woman gave him a rather unfriendly look before taking the photo.
Within two minutes, two green booklets were printed from the machine.
On the green booklet, there were three shiny gold words: "Divorce Certificate!"
"Youngdy, you don''t have to be sad. Realizing this jerk''s nature at such a young age and parting ways, you''re not losing much."
"With your looks and charm, why worry about finding a good man?"
"How about you meet my son? Although you''re divorced, this olddy knows you were deceived by a jerk, you''re innocent, and you need a new rtionship to heal your inner wounds."
"I think my son is quite nice, and the two of you are a good match."
"He''s twenty-five this year, unmarried, earns fifteen grand a month, doesn''t have a house or car for now, but surely will in the future. You can consider my son."
The woman intended to console Liu Tianyun but veered off track eventually.
She took out a photo and a piece of paper with a phone number, offering them to Liu Tianyun.
With a friendly smile on her face.
Liu Tianyun, with her beauty and elegance, captured the woman''s interest at first nce.
Liu Tianyun let out an awkwardugh.
Just as she was about to decline...
"Hurry up, give me the certificates." Ye Huan interjected between her and the clerk woman, blocking their eye contact, sounding very impatient.
The woman was annoyed, "Is this how you speak to elders? Do you have any manners?"
"..."
Ye Huan felt a herd of Divine Beasts trampling over the grasnd in his heart.
He finally experienced how irritating a chatty woman could be.
At that moment...
"Thank you, ma''am, I''ll think about it." Liu Tianyun smiled and reached for the photo and the piece of paper from the woman''s hand, stashing it into her bag.
Ye Huan felt an unexined irritability inside.
Extending his hand, even more impatiently, "Hurry up, give me the certificates."
"Why are you rushing? If you hadn''t been wasting time, you would have had them already." The woman red at Ye Huan, almost making him spit out blood.
Who''s really wasting time here?
Is there no ce for reason?
Ye Huan felt his blood boiling.
The divorce certificate was thrown onto the counter, and the woman nced at Liu Tianyun like she was looking at her daughter-inw, swapping to a kindly face, blinking twice, "Girl, my son has never dated before. He''s straightforward and not very chatty, so bear with him a bit."
"Mm, okay." Liu Tianyun smiled sweetly, making the woman beam with joy.
And then.
The woman waved Ye Huan off like she was shooing away a fly, "Young man, you better leave quickly. Just looking at you makes me mad. This girl meeting you must be her misfortune for eight generations."
Ye Huan was truly exasperated.
For some reason, he felt inexplicably irritated inside.
Extremely irritated.
Grabbing the divorce certificate, he snorted coldly before turning away, leaving the civil affairs bureau.
...
"Are you staying in the Capital City, or?" outside the civil affairs bureau, Ye Huan asked.
"We''re divorced, why would I stay in the Capital City? Take me back to Celestial Sea." Liu Tianyun said, then in front of Ye Huan, took out her phone and that piece of paper with the phone number given by the woman.
As she walked towards the BMW Mini, she was typing on her phone.
Ye Huan couldn''t see exactly what she was doing, but he could guess.
Adding the clerk woman''s son''s WeChat!
For a moment, a burst of unfounded anger surged in Ye Huan''s heart, and his pace quickened as he got into the car first.
What he didn''t see was.
The barely noticeable curve at the corner of Liu Tianyun''s mouth and her action of carelessly tossing the paper and photo into the trash bin...
The BMW Mini roared away.
Chapter 496 - 485 Complete Separation?
National Highway G-01.
The BMW Mini sped along.
In the passenger seat, Liu Tianyun cradled her phone, typing away constantly, a faint, beautiful smile on her face.
The WeChat notification sound kept pinging.
Ye Huan inexplicably felt irritated, his peripheral vision constantly darting toward Liu Tianyun''s phone.
But Liu Tianyun seemed to be guarding against him, holding her phone at such an angle that he couldn''t see a thing.
After more than ten minutes.
Ye Huan couldn''t hold back any longer, frowned, and directly asked, "Are you chatting with that auntie''s son?"
"Yes." Liu Tianyun responded.
"You..." Ye Huan feigned calmness and pursued, "Are you really nning to"
"nning to give it a try with him, why, is there a problem?"
Liu Tianyun looked at the screen, nonchntly responding with a question.
A yful glint shed in her eyes.
Ever since the auntie handed over the photo and note, and he stepped in to block her gaze from the auntie, Liu Tianyun had felt somewhat puzzled.
To test her guess, Liu Tianyun abandoned the idea of rejecting the auntie and instead epted the photo and contact details of the auntie''s son, while her peripheral vision was fixed on Ye Huan.
As expected, Ye Huan''s reaction was as she anticipated, somewhat unnatural.
Clearly, he was so adamant about the divorce, leaving without a backward nce, feeling liberated entering the Civil Affairs Bureau, yet he suddenly changed when he saw her epting another man''s contact?
Is this what''s called "possessiveness" in men?
Liu Tianyun never thought Ye Huan would have "possessiveness" towards her, especially revealed after the divorce.
This amused her, so she developed a mischievous impulse she''d never had before in her life, deciding to tease Ye Huan more.
At the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau, pretending to add the auntie''s son on WeChat was when Liu Tianyun started her prank.
Now, her phone screen was only a webpage simting the WeChat notification sound.
The webpage had just one big button, pressing it would sound the WeChat notification tone.
Liu Tianyun pretended to type, tapping quickly on the screen, asionally pressing the notification button, deliberately smiling.
Of course, part of her smile came from Ye Huan''s unnatural reaction.
Interesting.
"It''s not about a problem or not."
"I''m just suggesting that you be a bit careful."
"That auntie''s so chatty, if she bes your mother-inw, she''ll definitely make things difficult for you."
With a dark expression, Ye Huan pretended not to care and gave a piece of advice.
"Excuse me, Mr. Ye Huan, how is this any of your business?" Liu Tianyun blinked, staring directly at Ye Huan.
Ye Huan, annoyed, said, "Just a friendly reminder!"
"Thanks for your reminder." Liu Tianyun blinked twice again, withdrew her gaze, and her fingers flew over the phone screen.
Controlling the car, Ye Huan became even more frustrated.
"In matters of love, I think you shouldn''t rush; at least be cautious, and then cautious again." Ye Huan added.
Liu Tianyun tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and sighed:
"It''s not about rushing, it''s just a simple wish to fall in love."
"I''m not getting any younger, about to be twenty-six, and many girls my age already have two kids."
"I feel like it''s time for a good rtionship, to find true love. After all, in a few years, I''ll be approaching thirty, and being married twice, finding a man might be an issue, so I must seize the time."
"The auntie''s so enthusiastic, chatting with her son won''t hurt, maybe we''ll hit it off, don''t you think?"
Ye Huan was speechless: "..."
After a moment of silence, he said, "I think you have great qualities, you won''tck for suitors."
"Of course I will."
"You divorced me like it was liberation."
"One can imagine how it is for someone married twice."
Liu Tianyun spread her hands in helplessness.
At the same time, she moved her fingers slightly.
The WeChat notification tone sounded, and her face instantly lit up with a smile, pretending to type.
Seeing Ye Huan''s face turn as red as a pig''s liver, Liu Tianyun''s smile grew, barely holding backughter.
After a while, she seemed to joke, deliberately asking, "I say, Ye Huan, you don''t seem to want me talking to the auntie''s son? Why, could you be jealous?"
"I told you, it''s just a reminder!" Ye Huan seemed genuinely exasperated.
"Why do I feel it''s not ''just a reminder,'' you''re clearly jealous."
"If you don''t want me to talk to him, just say it, why beat around the bush, aren''t you a man?"
Liu Tianyun''s teasing made Ye Huan''s face even more ashen.
Yet she thoroughly enjoyed it.
Ye Huan inadvertently showing that kind of "possessiveness" towards her made her feel quitefortable.
She even began to wonder if Ye Huan actually had feelings for her but deliberately didn''t show it.
She huffed and asked, "Let me ask you onest thing, are you not going to regret divorcing me? Will you ever want to remarry me in the future?"
"No!"
"You" Ye Huan''s straightforward reply made Liu Tianyun instantly fuming while a hint of disappointment clouded her expression.
She turned her head to look out the window.
Speaking of divorce, her peripheral vision asionally nced at the green certificate in her bag, two silent tears rolled down her face.
...
"If you face any difficulties in the future, feel free to contact me."
At Peni Lakefront, Ye Huan parked the car in the yard of S-01, looked ahead, and said.
"Why on earth would I contact you, who do you think you are to me?" Liu Tianyun looked straight ahead, trying hard to keep her voice from trembling.
The car had reached its destination, she knew
She and Ye Huan were about to endpletely.
This fortuitous union was about to end.
The person she had missed for twenty years was about to leave herpletely.
"Didn''t we agree that we could still be friends after splitting? As a friend, helping you solve problems is quite normal, isn''t it?" Ye Huan smiled.
Pouting, Liu Tianyun asked in a provoking manner, "Then I''ll ask you a tricky question, do you think I should keep talking to that auntie''s son?"
""
Ye Huan instantly fell silent.
Whenever the auntie''s son was mentioned, an inexplicable anger rose within him.
Chapter 497 - 486: He definitely wont have a good time!
There was silence for a full five minutes.
"And you im to solve problems, look at yourself, you can''t even help me with this little issue,pletely useless."
Liu Tianyun yfully pushed Ye Huan''s shoulder.
This was the first time she had initiated physical contact with Ye Huan.
"Alright, let''s not talk about it."
"Let me tell you, this divorce of yours really hurt me."
"I hope you spend your life with everything going wrong: getting your teeth stuck drinking cold water,gging at 460 ping in the game, constantly disconnecting in League, buffering every second when watching videos, and meme images never loading."
With a cold snort and these words, Liu Tianyun grabbed her bag, pushed open the car door, and got out.
Disconnecting from the game...
Damn, that curse is harsh.
Ye Huan shook his head with a smile and started the car.
"Vroom!"
The car roared to life, making a 180-degree drift with the front end.
The BMW Mini just exited the courtyard.
Ye Huan then heard a voice from Liu Tianyun.
"Come to Celestial Sea tonight, have dinner with me, watch a movie with me, drink with me, go on a date with me!"
Through the rearview mirror, Ye Huan saw Liu Tianyun making a call.
Having dinner, watching a movie, drinking, going on a date tonight!?
Who is she calling?
That olddy''s son?
Ye Huan was extremely annoyed.
He was sure he had no feelings for Liu Tianyun, yet he was repeatedly irritated by such matters.
Ye Huan knew it was the male possessiveness at work.
No matter what, Liu Tianyun was once his wife, considered his woman.
Hearing his former woman extending a "date" invitation to someone else, how could he not be angry?
The mood, which had improved somewhat due to Liu Tianyun''s few jokes, suddenly turned somber again.
But since they were already divorced, he couldn''t control it, nor did he have the right to interfere with Liu Tianyun''s private life.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Ye Huan pressed the elerator, and the BMW Mini shot out like a rocket, roaring away.
Liu Tianyun chased outside the courtyard, watching the BMW Mini speed away, biting her lip heavily, tears streaming down uncontrobly.
Her heart was empty, feeling as if she had lost the most important thing, and might never find it again, filled with despair.
The only man she had ever liked since childhood no longer belonged to her.
Liu Tianyun wished she didn''t care so much about security, so she could give up everything to be by Ye Huan''s side.
But Ye Huan didn''t have her in his heart, surrounded by a flock of women, giving her a strong sense of insecurity.
This insecurity was suffocating her.
She couldn''t stay by Ye Huan''s side in such a state.
...
"Apologize? No need." Ye Huan was driving when he received a call from Capital City.
Caller: Su Zhiqiang.
"No! Ye Huan, I must apologize to you face to face!"
"After I got back, I seriously reflected on myself!"
"The things I did were utterly despicable, first selling the A-01 vi you gave me without telling you, to get an ''entry pass'' to Capital City."
"After seeding in Capital City, meeting you, instead of thanking you, I even despised you along with others."
"And told you not to try and curry favor with me and my sister."
"The things I did were no different from what that traitor Zhang Ruya did!"
"I''m remorseful now, and if I can''t apologize to you in person, I won''t have peace of mind."
On the other end, Su Zhiqiang''s voice was extremely sincere and earnest, almost like he wanted to kneel in front of Ye Huan right now and apologize.
Ye Huan initially thought Su Zhiqiang knew his ck-gold membership card was genuine, and wanted to use the apology as a pretext to curry favor.
But these words sounded so sincere, not like that at all.
Ye Huan furrowed his brow tightly.
Just as Liu Tianyun''s "date" words kept echoing in his mind, making him extremely irritable.
Might as well find someone to have a drink with and spill his heart, to distract himself.
"I''ll send you a location,e over, and we''ll have a drink."
"Alright, alright!"
Su Zhiqiangughed hurriedly, then hung up the phone.
"Zhiqiang, your acting skills are pretty good." At the top-tier luxury box in Ye''s Clubhouse.
Nan Zhen sat on the sofa, cuddling a beautiful woman, praising Su Zhiqiang.
The two pretty girls wore delightful expressions, picking up pieces of already sliced fruits on the coffee table with toothpicks, continuously feeding Nan Zhen.
Su Zhiqiang let out a couple of dryughs.
Good acting skills are nice, but those words just now were a scolding for himself.
A few minutester, WeChat pinged.
Su Zhiqiang looked at the phone, it was a location sent by Ye Huan.
"Brother Zhen, this guy is at Celestial Sea." Su Zhiqiang respectfully handed over the phone.
"Celestial Sea?" Nan Zhen didn''t take the phone, just nced lightly.
Celestial Sea by the Huangpu River, Tangli Food Stalls?
Seeing the specific location, Nan Zhen raised his eyebrows and said, "Is he trying to escape back to his base because he knows I''m going to retaliate against him?"
"Brother Zhen, his base is nothing in front of you."
"That guy only has the Liu Family behind him, an ant that you can crush just by lifting a finger."
"This time, that guy definitely won''t escape your grasp."
Su Zhiqiang said sycophantically.
Earlier, Nan Zhen had shared his analysis, and Su Zhiqiang agreed wholeheartedly.
Agreeing that Ye Huan couldn''t possibly be the so-called Crown Prince of Huaxia, he only thought Ye Huan had some leverage against Ye Qiqing and Su Qingqing, which he used to threaten Ye Qiqing and acquire the ck-gold membership card of Ye''s Clubhouse, signed by Ye Tiance.
Who is the Crown Prince of Huaxia? The one and only supreme young master in all of Huaxia, with an extraordinary status!
How could such a person be working as a security team leader at a small Tianyun International?
Impossible!
Unrealistic!
So, he must have threatened Ye Qiqing to obtain the ck-gold membership card of Ye''s Clubhouse.
"Of course."
"This time..."
Nan Zhen''s eyes shed with deep malice and spite, "he''ll be left with nothing!"
Chapter 498 - 487: Oh, isnt this Ye Huan? Its only been a day, how did you become so useless?
"Zhiqiang, you deserve half the credit for sessfully teaching that kid a lesson this time."
"Plus, since you didn''t run off like that bunch of spineless people with the king of garlic chives, it shows your character is really good."
"From now on, you''re my real brother, Nan Zhen."
"If you have any troubles, juste to Brother Zhen, Brother Zhen will sort it out for you in no time."
Nan Zhen munched on the fruit fed to him by a beautiful woman, crossed his legs, and fished out the phone from his pocket.
Su Zhiqiang looked excited.
At that time, he was stunned because Ye Huan''s ck gold membership card was real, so he froze there without running.
Otherwise, if there was a risk of offending the Ye Family, he would have run faster than anyone else.
But the past doesn''t matter anymore.
The important thing is, being able to be brothers with Nan Zhen means a limitless future now.
"Thank you, Brother Zhen!"
"Thank you, Brother Zhen!"
"Thank you, Brother Zhen!"
Su Zhiqiang kept thanking him until Nan Zhen''s phone call was answered, at which point he finally stopped.
"Big Sister, didn''t I upset youst time?"
"This time I promise to give you satisfaction!"
"What am I doing? Oh, just venting your anger for you."
"Isn''t that kid Ye Huan annoying you? This time... I''ll teach him a good lesson for you, let him know you''re not someone to be messed with!"
"Alright, I''ll send you an address. If you have time,e in person. If not, I''ll take a video when that kid''s crying for his mommy, and send it to you to cheer you up!"
"That''s it, I''ll go handle it now!"
"Big Sister, just wait for my good news, haha!"
Nan Zhenughed twice and hung up the phone without waiting for Ye Qiqing to say a word.
Half an hourter, a convoy of five vans was parked in front of the Nan Clubhouse.
A full fifty muscr men stood with folded arms.
These people are all members of the private guards within the Capital City yboy circle.
In the Capital City yboy circle, headed by Ye Qiqing, when they were making waves in the city, they inevitably had conflicts with thugs or some social figures.
Showing off one''s identity is too ostentatious, too shy.
At first, it feels good to oppress people with family power, butter it gets boring.
So Ye Qiqing simply established a private guard team, filled with top-tier experts, renowned in the boxing and free fighting circles.
No matter who in the yboy circle encounters trouble, as long as they can call the captain of this guard team, the issue can be resolved, and there''s nothing they can''t handle.
Nan Zhen, beaming with joy, got into the front Lamborghini Veneno with Su Zhiqiang.
The other fifty experts, divided into groups of ten, took their ces in the five vans.
The convoy of six vehicles grandly set off for Celestial Sea.
Nan Zhen lit a cigarette, looking pleased.
Thinking about how Ye Huan would soon be kneeling and admitting his wrongs, calling him grandfather, delighted him inwardly.
That kid made him aughingstock in front of countless people at the concert.
At Ye''s Clubhouse, taking advantage of the ck gold membership card he threatened out of Ye Qiqing, he thoroughly humiliated him, making him aughingstock once again while losing all face.
He even got scolded harshly by a waiter.
He was forced to write a five-thousand-word letter of apology to Ye Huan.
Afterward, the Nan Family was cklisted by Ye''s Clubhouse, causing his father, the head of the Nan Family, to vomit blood in rage and copse in the hospital, almost beyond rescue.
Eventually, he was punished with a year''s allowance cut, and everything he had on the surface, including his bank cards, was frozen.
It''s made Nan Zhen extremely tight for cash now, with only one or two million stashed away, barely enough to sustain his extravagant lifestyle.
He can''t swallow this anger!
He determinedly wanted Ye Huan to kneel and beg for mercy, calling him father!
No, call him grandpa!
Only then can he quench his hatred.
A bumpkin from Celestial Sea daring to provoke him, a young master from a top-tier family in the Capital City?
Simply asking for death!
...
Tianhai City, by the Huangpu River, Sweet and Sour Snack Stand.
"Grilledmb kidneys."
"Fried chives."
"Garlic oysters."
Looking at this menu, Ye Huan had a facepalm moment.
At the Sweet and Sour Snack Stand, logically, the main dishes should be something like "sweet and sour pork ribs," "sweet and sour carp," and some other sweet and sour dishes, right?
Howe none of the expected dishes are here, but instead the menu is full of dishes meant to boost health?
Ye Huan couldn''t help but ask, "Boss, what''s the deal here? Howe all the barbecue is health-boosting?"
The owner, who was also the head chef, was grilling skewers.
To be honest, this owner was very handsome and had a lot of charisma.
Truthfully, Ye Huan had never admired anyone for their looks, but he really admired this owner''s appearance.
Much more handsome than top-tier male stars, literally the dream of fourteen billion girls.
"Young man, do you think just because my shop is called Sweet and Sour Snack Stand, the main dishes would be rted to sweet and sour stuff?" The boss smiled and exined, "Actually, I''m an online novel writer, and the name of this snack standes from the front two characters of my pen name ''Sweet and Sour Carp''."
"An online novel writer?" Ye Huan was a bit surprised.
"Yes."
"The reason all my shop''s dishes are rted to health is that my updates are too intense, and readers can''t take staying upte, so they be physically weak."
"So, I often invite them to dine at my ce to boost their health." The bossughed heartily.
"Boss, why not just not update so intensely? They''re your readers, you should care about their health." Ye Huan found it quite amusing and chuckled.
The boss sighed helplessly and said:
"I didn''t expect them to be so ''weak,'' it''s my fault for overestimating them."
"But now, to take care of their health, I only update four chapters a day, so they can slow down and nourish their kidneys."
Ye Huan gave him a thumbs up, "It''s rare to see an author so considerate of his fans."
After saying this, both of them exchanged a smile and stopped talking.
There are no main dishes here, eating wouldn''t be satisfying.
Ye Huan had waited here all afternoon, waiting for the boss to open.
If he had seen the menu earlier, he would have chosen a different restaurant, but now it''s toote to change.
Ye Huan took out his phone and checked the time.
He found this snack stand on the navigation map around 2:10 PM and came over, having already sent the location of this snack stand to Su Zhiqiang in advance.
Now it''s 6:10 PM, the four-hour drive from the Capital to here should be about right.
The scenery here is beautiful, with the river breeze blowing, and you can hear the "ssh ssh" sound of the river.
Eating some barbecue in this atmosphere, drinking some beer, it''s indescribably rxing.
Ye Huan exhaled a deep breath, dispelling much of his annoyance.
A minuteter, as he expected, Su Zhiqiang arrived.
But it wasn''t just him.
An entire convoy also came.
Ye Huan slightly frowned, his eyes gradually narrowing.
Nan Zhen closed the door of the Lamborghini Veneno, hands in pockets, swaggered over to Ye Huan, pushed his sunsses down to his nose, and with a "surprised" expression:
"Oh my, isn''t it Ye Huan?"
"Haven''t seen you for a day and you''ve be such trash?"
"Eating at a snack stand now?"
"If you''re broke, why not give Brother Zhen a call?"
"Brother Zhen has money. If you beg Brother Zhen, Brother Zhen will wire you a cool amount with his eyes closed!"
```
Chapter 499 - 488: Scattered Your Ashes!
Ye Huan nced coldly at Su Zhiqiang and calmly asked, "Is this the apology you mentioned?"
"Ye Huan, don''t me me; me yourself for provoking a force you can''t handle."
"Time and again you opposed Brother Zhen and even dared to threaten my sister and Big Boss Ye Qiqing. You''re really tired of living."
"I''m just using a little ploy to bring Brother Zhen here to teach you a lesson, you oblivious fool."
Su Zhiqiang spoke without expression, his words filled with coldness.
"The phone call where you practically begged to apologize was just to trick me into giving away my location so you could bring Nan Zhen over here?" Ye Huan couldn''t help but let out augh.
"Exactly. But let me tell you, apologizing to you over the phone wasn''t my true intent at all."
"I used to hate Zhang Ruya, but after spending a short time in Capital City, I no longer hate her and understand her ways of climbing up."
"Because I deeply experienced what it feels like to be endlessly satisfied by money and power."
"With power, you can do whatever you want; with money, you can buy anything you want; having both allows you to trample many people beneath your feet, bing a presence they admire, one they dare not offend."
"As long as I can curry favor with those more powerful and richer, I don''t care if I''m considered a turncoat; I don''t care about morals and integrity."
Su Zhiqiang spoke without expression, his tone t.
"Not bad, quite self-aware."
Nan Zhen removed his sunsses,plimenting Su Zhiqiang as he leisurely walked over to face Ye Huan directly, sat down, and crossed his legs.
He took out a pack of cigarettes and held one between his lips.
Understanding the gesture, Su Zhiqiang took out a lighter, shielding the wind with one hand as he "clicked" it to light the cigarette in Nan Zhen''s mouth.
"Hoo"
A circle of smoke was exhaled.
Nan Zhen looked straight at Ye Huan, his mouth curled up, teasingly saying, "Ye Huan, you''re quite clever, huh? Did youe back to your base on purpose, knowing I was going to take revenge on you?"
Ye Huan spread his hands and said, "Since you''re so determined to die, I don''t mind helping you. Why go through so much trouble? You could''ve just called me, and I''d send you my location for you toe here and get yourself killed."
"Haha."
"You really have a sharp tongue."
"You''re acting all high and mighty now, but I wonder how long you can keep it up."
Nan Zhen sneered mockingly.
"p. p. p."
He pped his hands a few times rhythmically.
"Wow"
The doors of five vans opened simultaneously.
Fifty men dressed in ck vests and ck capri pants, with bodies full of visually powerful muscles, stepped out of the vehicles.
They stood with their hands in their pockets behind Nan Zhen, which was right in front of Ye Huan.
Nan Zhen exhaled a thick puff of smoke, his eyes full of contempt, and mockingly asked:
"Kid, still daring to act tough?"
"Still daring to talk big in front of me?"
"Come on, show me how tough you can be."
His words were full of mockery.
After speaking, he was a bit surprised.
A normal person would have been scared out of their wits at this scene.
Howe Ye Huan wasn''t reacting, and his expression hadn''t changed?
Was he scared stiff?
Yes, he must have been scared stiff.
Nan Zhen''s face showed even more mockery.
"How do you want to die?" Ye Huan suddenly said, freezing the smile on Nan Zhen''s face.
This kid, his mouth is really tough.
With such a tough mouth and so much confidence, is it because of the Liu Family backing him?
Realizing this, Nan Zhen sneered, "Ye Huan, you''re like a country bumpkin who hasn''t seen the world. Do you think the Liu Family backing you is formidable? Let me tell you, the Liu Family is mighty in Celestial Sea, but in front of the Nan Family and me, Nan Zhen, they are nothing. If the Liu Family decides to protect you, I won''t mind taking them out too."
His tone was full of disdain, as if taking out the Liu Family was as simple as lifting a finger.
Finishing his sentence, he stubbed out his cigarette and tossed it carelessly on the ground, his eyes shing a hint of malice.
"Let me tell you, I''m here to settle the score today."
"First, you humiliated me in front of tens of millions at Lilith''s concert."
"Second, you forced me to write an apology and pay three billion at Ye''s Clubhouse."
"Third, you ckmailed Ye Qiqing into giving you a ck card membership by revealing the ''shield'' incident."
"Ye Huan, you''re truly unafraid of death, daring to offend both me, Nan Zhen, and my big sister bossYe Qiqing."
"Do you even know who Ye Qiqing is... never mind, you probably wouldn''t understand, you country bumpkin."
"I can only tell you, she''s a big boss among big bosses, and she''ll being overter to teach you a lesson."
"Today, if you write a ten-thousand-word apology and return all the money you took from me, I might just beat you up, cripple your limbs as a lesson, to show you who you can and can''t offend!"
"I don''t know how Ye Qiqing ns to punish you, but I might plead on your behalf."
"Of course, if you don''t write the apology or refuse to return the money..."
Nan Zhen nced at the river by the store, with an icy smile, "I wouldn''t mind scattering your ashes in the Huangpu River!"
Having said that, he pped his hands again.
"Crack... crack..."
The muscle-bound men cracked their knuckles, making intense bone-cracking sounds, with murderous glints in their eyes.
Nan Zhen ced both feet on the table, exuding an air of extreme arrogance.
He didn''t even bother to look Ye Huan straight in the eye.
The people behind him were boxing champions and top-tier fighters, each with physical prowess on par with special forces.
If Ye Huan acted out of line, these guys could instantly beat him into submission, leaving him powerless to call for help.
"Hey, what are you guys doing!"
"Don''t start a fight here!"
"My readers areing for a kidney supplementter!"
At this moment.
The food stall owner frowned and came over, yelling at them.
"If it''s broken, I''ll pay for it. I''ve got plenty of money..."
Nan Zhen was cut off mid-sentence.
He recognized the owner!
"Damn, it''s you, Sweet and Sour Carp!"
"You barely update daily, I''ve wanted to kill you for a long time!"
"Get him! Beat him to death!"
Nan Zhen cursed out.
The owner turned pale with fear, "What do you... what do you want to do..."
The next second, a muscr man answered him with action!
"Bang!"
A muscr man threw a punch, sending the owner flying fifty meters, spitting blood incessantly.
Then, a group of brawny men rushed up to him, pummeling him with kicks and punches.
The owner''s scream, like a pig being ughtered, echoed to the sky.
Nan Zhen leisurely smoked, his eyes ncing sideways at Ye Huan, seeing no change in expression, found immense satisfaction.
This kid, he probably got scared stiff seeing the owner''s tragic end.
Good, let him see the might of the muscle men in advance.
Soon he''ll be on his knees, calling him dad, begging for mercy.
About a minuteter.
Nan Zhen waved his hand and said:
"That''s enough, don''t kill him."
"I still want to read what he writes."
"If his updates still drag on like before, I''ll kill himter."
With that said.
He got up, shook his head a few times, and mocking looked at Ye Huan: "So, are you going to do what I said, or should I toss your ashes?"
Chapter 500 - 489 Big Sister
"You can try." Ye Huan chuckled softly.
"..."
This kid must be scared stiff, otherwise, how could he say something like that?
Nan Zhen frowned.
In his expectations, after Ye Huan witnessed the prowess of the strong men, he should have cried and begged for mercy.
Ye Huan''s indifference now really made Nan Zhen feel like his iron fist hit cotton, not painful nor itchy.
This made him very displeased.
This kid is still pretending now, I''ll kill himter and scatter his ashes!
But the most important heavyweight guest hasn''t arrived yet, so he can''t make a move now.
After exhaling a long stream of thick smoke, Nan Zhen pulled out his phone and made a call.
"Big Sis, where are you?"
"We''ve surrounded this kid. We can teach him a lesson whenever we want."
"Waiting for you? Another ten minutes?"
"Okay, okay, no problem."
Nan Zhen''s mood improved quite a bit.
Ye Huan threatened Ye Qiqing, which must have made Ye Qiqing very unhappy.
After getting rid of this reckless kid, Ye Qiqing will definitely praise him, Nan Zhen.
Nice, very nice.
"When my Big Sis arrives, be smart, got it?" Nan Zhen said to Su Zhiqiang.
Su Zhiqiang nodded solemnly.
Nan Zhen''s Big Sis is none other than a descendant of the super-elite Ye Family!
Her brother is the mysterious Crown Prince of Huaxia, and she is the First Princess of Huaxia!
If he could get close to the First Princess, establish a good rtionship...
The benefits he could gain are simply unimaginable!
Su Zhiqiang decided that when the strong men beat up Ye Huan, he would also kick him a couple of times.
After all, Ye Qiqing was unhappy with Ye Huan, so if he kicked Ye Huan hard, he could earn some goodwill in front of Ye Qiqing.
Nice, very nice.
Su Zhiqiang couldn''t help but smile, casting a "pitiful" nce at Ye Huan, as if looking at a dead man.
"Ye Huan, you can be my stepping stone to climb higher up, that''s a lifetime of glory for you."
After letting out a coldugh in his heart, he respectfully stood by the roadside, waiting for Ye Qiqing''s arrival.
Nan Zhen continued smoking, shaking his leg.
After exhaling another smoke ring, he mocked, "Kid, once my Big Sis arrives, your death sentence is set, be ready to say yourst words."
Ye Huan didn''t even want to bother with him, calmly sipping his tea.
In between, he even called 120 to get the ambnce to take away the unfortunate handsome boss and had the already grilled barbecue on the rack served up, eating as if nothing happened.
"Kid, you''re really courting death."
After an angry shout from Nan Zhen, he got up and walked to the roadside.
He didn''t want to look at Ye Huan anymore. Each time he saw Ye Huan''s indifferent demeanor, his anger red up a notch.
Ten minutester, a Maserati Quattroporte worth forty-five million pulled up beside the store on the roadside.
Nan Zhen walked to the car door at the driver''s seat, respectfully made an inviting gesture.
When Ye Qiqing, dressed in a sleek ck tight-fitting outfit and wearing sunsses, stepped down from the driver''s seat, he helped close the car door and gave Su Zhiqiang and others a hinting look.
"Greetings, Big Sis!"
Su Zhiqiang and those fifty muscr men respectfully shouted and then collectively bowed ny degrees to Ye Qiqing.
Ye Qiqing had one hand in the pocket of her ck jacket, the other hand removed the sunsses from her face, her face icy cold.
She had the aura of a gang leader.
She nced at Ye Huan, her eyes igniting an unspoken rage.
Seeing this, Nan Zhen almost couldn''t help butugh out loud.
Ye Qiqing was furious!
The angrier she got, the better it was for Nan Zhen to please her by teaching Ye Huan a lesson!
Ye Qiqing must not mistreat him.
Haha, awesome!
Nan Zhen cleared his throat, suppressed his inner excitement, first pointed at Su Zhiqiang and said, "Big Sis, this is my brother Su Zhiqiang, your secretary at thepany - Su Qingqing''s big brother. It was he who devised the n to trick out Ye Huan''s location, allowing me to surround this reckless kid."
Upon hearing this, the anger in Ye Qiqing''s eyes intensified!
She abruptly turned her head, ring at Su Zhiqiang.
Facing Ye Qiqing''s furious gaze, Su Zhiqiang was startled, cold sweat dripped down his forehead.
But he just assumed that Ye Qiqing''s anger was directed at Ye Huan.
He felt grateful to Nan Zhen.
Nan Zhen was introducing him to Ye Qiqing, giving him credit.
Su Zhiqiang steadied his mind, spoke sincerely, "Big Sis, it''s what I should do. This kid offended you, naturally, I should join Brother Zhen to teach him a lesson."
"Should do?" Ye Qiqing sneered coldly, "You''re quite clever, tricking people''s location and bringing people to surround others."
ted by Ye Qiqing''spliment, Su Zhiqiang was ecstatic.
He was ttered, sycophantically smiling, "That''s because of your radiant brilliance, Big Sis, that I could be so smart..."
Before he finished, his face suddenly turned white.
Ye Qiqing''s gaze was chillingly cold, the p she threw was only a centimeter away from his face.
"..."
The air instantly froze.
Everyone, except Ye Huan, was stunned.
Coming back to his senses, Nan Zhen pointed at Su Zhiqiang''s nose, angrily scolded, "Big Sis''s brilliance is not something you can shine with whenever you wish!"
"I... I... I was wrong in my words, I spoke outrageously without looking in the mirror, I''m sorry, Big Sis..."
Su Zhiqiang hurriedly pped his own mouth, each p sounded louder than thest.
The crisp sound of pping echoed continuously.
"Big Sis, he''s already like this, can''t you... can''t you spare him this once..." Nan Zhen smiled sycophantically.
He thought Ye Qiqing was unhappy with what Su Zhiqiang said.
This Su Zhiqiang sure has low IQ.
Ye Qiqing''s brilliance is something that can shine whenever he wishes?
After cursing twice in his heart, Nan Zhen decided it was better to shift the topic back to serious business.
He put on a serious face, pointed his index finger at Ye Huan, and said:
"Big Sis, this reckless kid is here, you say how to deal with him."
"Should we break his limbs, or scatter his ashes into the Huangpu River?"
"It''s all up to you."
"This kid dared to threaten you, he''s simply courting death..."
Before he finished speaking.
"Bam!!!"
Chapter 501 - 490: How could such a sturdy young man have that kind of chronic illness!
A crisp p echoed through the night sky.
Ye Qiqing''s face was cold. After retracting her palm, as if disgusted, she picked up a napkin from the table and began wiping her hands.
Su Zhiqiang was her "sister-inw''s" elder brother, so it was inappropriate for her to hit him.
Nan Zhen, at most, was just one of her little brothers, a tag-along.
Would she hesitate to hit him?
"..."
The whole venue fell silent.
Nan Zhen''s head was turned to the right side,pletely confused.
What was going on? Why did Ye Qiqing hit him, the hero of the day?
Nan Zhen looked unconvinced and questioned, "Big Sister, are you are you mistaken? Why are you hitting me?"
"Hit you? I''m not just going to hit you, I''m going to disable you!"
"Tattooed Arm, get him, cripple his limbs!"
Ye Qiqingmanded angrily.
The man addressed as Tattooed Arm was the leader of the muscle men, a thick-armed man with arge Cyan Dragon tattooed on his left arm. He was the captain of this private bodyguard team for the rich kids.
Following Ye Qiqing''s order, he immediately turned his head to look at Nan Zhen, his eyes showing a fierce glint.
Nan Zhen''s body trembled with fear, unable toprehend the situation.
When his gaze met that of Tattooed Arm, Nan Zhen''s lips quivered violently, fear flickering in his eyes, and he stammered, "You guys don''t don''t..."
"Brother Zhen, you have to understand, we can''t go against Big Sister''s orders."
With a look of difficulty, Tattooed Arm said in a low voice that only the two could hear, then swung a fist.
Nan Zhen was knocked down directly, clutching his abdomen and crying out in pain.
"Go, cripple him!" Tattooed Arm ordered in a deep voice, then led the charge to beat up Nan Zhen.
Already sapped by indulgence, Nan Zhen couldn''t withstand such a beating. He immediately let out a bone-chilling, miserable scream.
Ye Qiqing watched coldly, then sat down opposite Ye Huan and said, "Brother..."
She shaped her lips for a word, but before making a sound, she changed it under Ye Huan''s silent cue, apologetically saying, "Brother Ye, I''m sorry I''m a bitte. I didn''t expect Nan Zhen, that damned thing, would dare to take revenge on you."
"It''s alright."
Ye Huan casually replied, then took a portion of the barbecue from his te, ced it on a clean te, and pushed it in front of Ye Qiqing.
Ye Qiqing nced at it, and seeing it was mostly kidneys, oysters, and bull penis, she lost her appetite immediately, quickly waving her hands, awkwardly saying, "No need."
"Try it, the chef''s skills are quite good," he said.
"It''s a pity there''s only this much, can''t fully enjoy it. The chef got beaten into the hospital by someone''s underlings."
While speaking, Ye Huan took another skewer ofmb kidneys into his mouth.
Ye Qiqing''s eyes turned cold upon hearing this.
What a joke, who did Nan Zhen think he was?
Daring to make her brother and secret crush, Ye Huan, go hungry and unsatisfied!?
Courting death!
"Such weak strength, haven''t you eaten!?" Ye Qiqing sternly shouted at the muscle men, her voice filled with coldness.
The muscle men all shivered.
Nan Zhen had been generous to them, so they held back a bit.
But they knew their true master was Ye Qiqing, the "Duke Princess of Huaxia"!
With hermand, what room did they have for personal thoughts?
The muscle men all spat and, with a cruel glint in their eyes, unleashed all their strength to beat up Nan Zhen.
"Ouch, stop hitting, it hurts like hell..."
"Big Sister, why why do you want to cripple me? I''m the hero, ouch..."
"Aow!!!"
Screams of utter misery echoed through the air like wailing ghosts and wolves.
Nan Zhen cursed inwardly from the pain!
These muscle men were renowned in the boxing and martial arts worldhow could he withstand their blows?
Moreover, he brought these muscle men to beat up Ye Huan!
He wanted Ye Qiqing to witness Ye Huan screaming for mercy!
But now, it was not Ye Huan getting beaten, it was him, Nan Zhen!
And the one Ye Qiqing witnessed screaming for mercy was now him, Nan Zhen!
Nan Zhen couldn''t understand the situation but was being beaten and howled endlessly.
His miserable cries left Ye Qiqing, already uninterested inmb kidneys, even less appetized.
But since Ye Huan imed it tasted good and was eating so heartily, Ye Qiqing decided just to try it, picking up a skewer and putting it into her mouth.
"How is it? The chef''s skills are quite good, right?" Ye Huan smiled.
"Mm..."
Ye Qiqing, chewing with puffed cheeks, nodded approvingly.
Themb kidney was deliciously vorful and chewy without any odd taste, indeed quite good.
After finishing themb kidney, she picked up another skewer from the te.
But then, she seemed to realize something, raising her eyebrows in a frown.
The barbecue on the table...
Lamb kidneys...
Bull penis...
Oysters...
Geoduck m...
Leek...
Why were all these barbecue items for body replenishment??
Thinking back to how Ye Huan chased after Lilith out of the housest night...
Could it be...
( 㧥 ;)
They said Western women are wilder; Ye Qiqing didn''t believe it before, but now she did!
Despite Ye Huan''s well-proportioned figure and explosive muscle power, which should mean he has quite the capability, did he actually lose to Lilith?
Incredible!
Surely, after being exhausted by Lilith, Ye Huan came here to eat barbecue for body replenishment.
That''s right, it must be like this!
No...
No way!
Ye Qiqing''s face was solemn as she propped her chin up with her hands, lost in thought.
If it''s about supplementing health, a little would be enough, right?
Why order all these strong supplements?
This clearly shows an extremely urgent desire to supplement!
It''s strange, why so urgent...
"Hey, stop it! Stop hitting me, or I''ll be done for!"
Nan Zhen''s miserable scream suddenly interrupted Ye Qiqing''s thoughts!
Ye Qiqing was furious and said, "Stuff his mouth for me, he''s so annoying!"
A muscr man stopped beating Nan Zhen, took off his stinky socks, and stuffed them into Nan Zhen''s mouth, nearly bulging his eyes out of their sockets.
Damn, it''s too smelly!
"Mmm... mmm mmm..."
Nan Zhen''s cries became much quieter, and Ye Qiqing fell back into thought.
Indeed, if it''s for health, a little would be enough.
Ordering all these strong barbeques is too strange!
Could it be that...
Could it be that Ye Huan was embarrassed in front of Lilith yesterday, and then searched the inte for health supplement tips, found thatmb kidneys and other barbeques are good for weakness, and that''s why he''s here at this food stall for barbeque?
It''s very possible!
Ye Qiqing swallowed and tentatively asked, "Brother Ye, how long were you with Lilithst night?"
Ye Huan was taken aback and answered, "A few minutes, I guess."
( 㧥 ;)
A few minutes???
Ye Qiqing covered her mouth with her small hand, somewhat in disbelief.
Ye Huan looks so robust, how could he have such an "ailment"?
Ye Qiqing couldn''t believe it and asked again, "Brother Ye, what made you decide toe for barbeque?"
"Why are you asking that?" Ye Huan looked puzzled.
"Just say it." Ye Qiqing propped her chin up with her hands and blinked.
Ye Huan frowned slightly. He thought that the riverside scenery was pleasant and could improve his mood, so he looked up what eateries were by the riverside online, found Sugar Vinegar Food Stall, and came over.
"Found it online and came," Ye Huan said.
But these words meant somethingpletely different to Ye Qiqing''s ears!
"Bang!"
Ye Qiqing''s hands went soft, her head dropping onto the table, her face covered with the barbeque spices from themb kidneys.
"What''s wrong with you?" Ye Huan frowned and asked, finding Ye Qiqing a bit odd.
"Cough. Cough."
After being stimted by the barbeque spices, Ye Qiqing coughed a couple of times before hurriedly saying, "I''m fine, just a slip of the hand."
As she spoke, she wiped her face with a tissue.
A storm raged in her heart.
Just as she guessed, Ye Huan was embarrassed in front of Lilith yesterday, searched online formb kidneys and the like to supplement, and came for barbeque!
How could a sturdy young man like him have such an "ailment"!
Moreover, he just left with Lilithst night, and today he''s urgentlying to eat supplementing barbeque, it must be because Lilith expressed disdain for him, making him ashamed and furious, so he came for barbeque to bolster himself!
Ye Qiqing was frustrated.
How could Lilith act like this?
As a woman, notforting her man and even showing disdain? It''s simply too vile!
Lilith is trampling on Ye Huan''s dignity!
Ye Qiqing was extremely dissatisfied with Lilith.
At the same time, she felt very sorry for Ye Huan.
Sigh.
Being disdained by his own woman, face lost.
Ye Huan must be calm on the outside but hurting inside.
Ye Qiqing picked up a skewer and, after picking up the barbeque that had an intimate encounter with her face, ced it piece by piece into Ye Huan''s te. Then, with her hands propped under her chin, she gazed at Ye Huan, her beautiful eyes filled with sympathetic tears, "Brother Ye, eat more."
Ye Huan: "..."
He had a speechless look on his face.
"Bossdy, it''s done."
"This kid''s arms and legs are all broken."
Beside him, the tattooed man wiped the sweat off his forehead and said breathlessly.
Ye Qiqing frowned and coldly asked, "Is there any chance for recovery?"
The tattooed man''s body stiffened.
He did hold back with his men, so as long as Nan Zhen receives treatment, there''s a high chance he''ll recover.
Seeing Ye Qiqing''s increasingly cold gaze, the tattooed man shuddered.
He made a fierce expression, lifted his toe.
"Crack!!!!"
Four bone-cracking sounds echoed.
Nan Zhen felt sharp pain shooting through his limbs, and after a final anguished scream, his eyes cked out and he passed out.
The tattooed man awkwardly said, "Bossdy, now Nan Zhen''s limbs and joints are shattered, no chance of recovery."
Ye Qiqing withdrew her cold gaze and turned to look at Ye Huan, asking, "Brother Ye, what do you think we should do with the remaining person who schemed maliciously against you?"
The person in question was, of course, Su Zhiqiang.
"Thud."
Su Zhiqiang''s legs went soft, and he knelt to the ground.
He was already terrified by Nan Zhen''s miserable state.
Ye Qiqing''s words filled him with boundless fear!
He crawled to Ye Huan, clinging to his leg and cried, "Ye Huan, please... please spare me once, I... I really know I''m wrong!"
Chapter 502 - 491: Drunk?
Ye Huan''s face was indifferent as he said, "You seemed to have said the same thing before, yet you still brought people over to trouble me."
Su Zhiqiang''s face turned anxious and he said:
"I... I didn''t know you were so badass before!"
"If I had known earlier that you were connected with the big sister, I wouldn''t have been able to tter you fast enough, let alone bring people over to trouble you!"
"Please... please spare me this time, I''m begging you..."
"So, you''re saying that after sparing you once..." Ye Huan sneered, "I should give you another chance to curry favor with me?"
"I can... I can do that!"
"Ye... Ye Huan, I''m willing to do anything for you!"
"I... I can even have my sister..."
Su Zhiqiang wore a sycophantic smile, one that carried a deeper meaning.
"Su Zhiqiang..." Ye Huan''s gaze turned cold, and he kicked him five meters away, "You''ve truly be a human pincushion now."
Su Zhiqiang''s face was full of awkwardness as he crawled back, attempting again to cling to Ye Huan''s leg.
With a signal from Ye Qiqing''s eyes, the tattooed arm held Su Zhiqiang by the shoulder, preventing him from getting even an inch closer to Ye Huan.
In that instant, Su Zhiqiang cried out again in despair.
"Brother Ye, however you decide to handle him, I''ll leave it to you," said Ye Qiqing.
Ye Huan nced at the kneeling, weeping Su Zhiqiang.
Su Zhiqiang''s face waspletely filled with the word "regret" as he cried more desperately; he didn''t want to end up like Nan Zhen, or even worse.
He was the son-inw of the Huang Family and the eldest brother of the secretary to the chairman of Li Corporation, with a bright future ahead!
Why... why did he provoke someone he shouldn''t have!
Was it to help Nan Zhen teach Ye Huan a lesson and stand out as a leader?
Ridiculous!
Who is Ye Huan? Ye Qiqing affectionately calls him "Brother Ye"!
Moreover, Su Zhiqiang noticed a hint of deep-seated shyness in Ye Qiqing''s eyes when she spoke to Ye Huan!
Su Zhiqiang recalled when Ye Qiqing just assumed the position of chairman of Li Corporation, she went to a business banquet held in Celestial Sea.
The banquet caused quite a stir not only in Celestial Sea but also in Capital City.
Because the "Huaxia Princess" Ye Qiqing, who had never had any romantic rumors, proposed to a man at the banquet, only to be rejected on the spot.
ording to the grapevine, the person who was proposed to had the surname Ye!
In Celestial Sea, among those with the surname Ye who also had the opportunity to attend the banquet...
It could only be Ye Huan!
Thinking of this, Su Zhiqiang was filled with deep regret.
He actually offended Ye Qiqing''s beloved for someone like Nan Zhen.
It was like picking up sesame seeds and losing a giant pineapple!
If he could win over Ye Qiqing''s beloved, Su Zhiqiang would indirectly have Ye Qiqing as a powerful backing in Capital City, a truly bright future ahead!
However, instead of befriending Ye Huan, he offended him once at Ye''s Clubhouse, and then used the pretext of an apology to counterattack, offending him thoroughly!
This was a surefire way to court death!
A ck gold membership card? Threatening Ye Qiqing to get it?
Ridiculous, Su Zhiqiang believed that not to mention a ck gold membership card, even more valuable things would be handed over by Ye Qiqing if Ye Huan asked!
For that, when Ye Huan was beaten, he also went up and kicked him a couple of times, hoping to win Ye Qiqing''s favor.
Su Zhiqiang believed that if he dared to kick Ye Huan, Ye Qiqing would unhesitatingly have someone cripple both of his legs!
And somehow, Ye Huan was never meant to be a stepping stone for him.
Yet, Su Zhiqiang''s very life and death ended up in Ye Huan''s control!
Su Zhiqiang believed that if Ye Huan wished him dead...
Ye Qiqing would unhesitatingly have someone scatter Su Zhiqiang''s ashes into the Huangpu River.
All he could do was beg!
Beg Ye Huan to spare him!
"Ye Huan... no, Grandpa Ye Huan, I''m begging you, just let me go like a fart!"
"For the sake of old times and my sister, please spare me this time!"
"I''m really begging you!"
Su Zhiqiang begged with tears while banging his head hard, breaking it open with just a few hits.
Ye Huan showed no intention of responding, eating kebabs with a indifferent look.
Meanwhile, Su Zhiqiang continued crying loudly and banging his head.
About ten minutester.
Su Zhiqiang''s head was bloodied from hitting it, and he was somewhat dazed.
"Brother Ye, he..." Ye Qiqing frowned slightly.
Ye Huan unhurriedly finished swallowing hisst piece ofmb kidney.
He pulled out a napkin from beside and wiped his mouth.
He nced at Su Zhiqiang.
No matter what, Su Zhiqiang was Su Qingqing''s older brother.
With that rtionship, Ye Huan felt it wouldn''t be appropriate to take his life.
Having banged his head until it bled, he received the punishment he deserved. Ye Huan decided to forgive him onest time and cut all ties.
Just as he was about to speak.
"Ding-a-ling."
The phone rang.
Ye Huan pulled out his phone from his pocket, and, feeling intrigued, nced at it.
What a rare event, Qin Ya was actually calling him?
Ye Huan answered the call without hesitation and said casually, "Hello, Captain Qin, what can I do for you..."
But before he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed.
"Ye Huan, you need to get to the Secret Bar in Celestial Sea quickly, Tianyun is blocked by men there and they won''t let her leave. I can tell she''s drunk; you need to go get her!"
Chapter 503 - 492: Secret Bar
"Alright, I understand."
Ye Huan said in a heavy tone. After hanging up the phone, he got into the Mini Cooper and drove away without saying a word.
Beside the shop, Ye Qiqing''s expression also changed slightly. She knew something must have happened, otherwise Ye Huan wouldn''t be in such a hurry.
She cast a cold nce at Su Zhiqiang, who was kneeling on the ground.
Without a word.
She put on her sunsses, waved her hand, and got into the Maserati Quattroporte she had driven here.
The rest of the muscr men boarded the five vans, roaring as they followed behind.
Leaving nothing but a scene of chaos.
And...
A jubnt Su Zhiqiang!
He originally thought he was doomed, but who knew happiness woulde so suddenly.
Ha ha!
Su Zhiqiang was ecstatically happy, full of the joy of surviving a disaster.
Then, he dialed 120 for an ambnce to take Nan Zhen away.
Nan Zhen was already unconscious, and if it weren''t for the faint breathing, he looked no different from a dead person.
...
Celestial Sea City, Secret Bar.
"Boom cha boom cha, so whay so whay so whay."
"857857, 8585857, 8888857."
Amidst the deafening DJ music, men and women in the dance floor moved their bodies wildly, looking particrly striking under the dazzling, blinding lights.
Beneath the dance floor, the sound of clinking sses constantly echoed, and men and women, upon seeing someone they liked, would unhesitatingly go up and hit on them.
By the bar counter.
"Miss, your Midnight Rose."
The bartender elegantly ced a wine ss on the counter, pushing it in front of the woman.
The woman''s exquisite face was flushed with intoxication, and her fair army on the counter, her eyes misty. "Thank you."
Murmuring softly, she drunkenly picked up the ss, took a sip, and then fixed her gaze on the group of men behind her.
"If you dare touch me, you''re finished. I''ve already... called my best... best friend, and she''s... she''s a cop."
Liu Tianyun mumbled, trying to make her tone fierce, but in her drunken state, she didn''t sound fierce at all, instead looking rather cute.
"Gulp." Huang Zhiwen, wearing a sleek suit, swallowed hard and said from the heart, "She''s truly exceptional..."
The four strong men beside him nodded, eximing in unison, "Brother Zhiwen, this is... the first time I''ve seen such a beautiful woman in my life."
"Yeah... truly exceptional..."
Huang Zhiwen''s gaze was veryscivious, looking Liu Tianyun up and down, swallowing repeatedly.
He hadn''t expected that in such a backwater ce like Celestial Sea, such a high-caliber beauty existed.
And he had encountered this beauty!
This trip to Celestial Sea... was worth it!
Huang Zhiwen came to Celestial Sea to assist his boss, the young master of the Nan Family, Nan Rui, to first meet his fiance and secretly take a few photos to take back.
This morning, the Nan Family announced to the entire Capital City that the Qin Family in the Dragon Gate was to form an alliance through marriage, with the young master of the Nan Family set to marry the youngest daughter of the Qin Family!
The news caused an uproar in the Capital City!
The Qin Family of the Dragon Gate held a position akin to being second-inmand, just below the super aristocratic Di Family!
The Qin Family''s status in the Dragon Gate was equivalent to that of the Ye Family from the Li Family in Huaxia''s official circles!
Even in a marriage alliance, it should be between families of equal standing, right?
The Qin Family''s active decision to ally with the Nan Family, a family dozens of times weaker in status, was beyondprehension!
It aroused vigorous spection from the outside world!
Some wondered if the Qin daughter being married off was second-hand goods or extremely unattractive...
Or even more outrageous guesses began to surface.
This made Nan Rui immensely troubled, as he didn''t want his wife to be unworthy.
So, after getting the whereabouts of the woman from the Qin Family, Nan Rui sent his subordinate Huang Zhiwen to Celestial Sea to investigate, gather information, and take some photos back.
Initially, Huang Zhiwen was somewhat resistant to this task.
Compared to the Capital City, Celestial Sea was just a backwater city.
Going to Celestial Sea for business would lower his status, Huang Zhiwen thought.
But now, Huang Zhiwen had no objections.
On his first night in Celestial Sea, he was able to catch such a beautiful woman, so why be unhappy?
"Kid, this woman is mine, you got a problem with that?" Huang Zhiwen said nonchntly, giving a shove to the man who looked like a hooligan at his right hand.
"Ouch." The man fell to the ground with a shout of pain, the right side of his face already swollen.
Two minutes ago, Huang Zhiwen had pped him.
He was the boss maintaining the order in this ce, called Sima Gang.
Earlier, he had set his eyes on Liu Tianyun and started chatting her up.
Just as things were getting exciting, Huang Zhiwen showed up with his men and pped him without a word, telling him to get lost.
Sima Gang was infuriated and immediately called for backup.
Huang Zhiwen sneered, revealing his identity, scaring Sima Gang enough to call off his men and not dare make a sound.
As a joke, Sima Gang believed that if he dared hit the young master of the second-tier Capital City family, the Huang Family, he''d disappear from this world tomorrow.
Regarding Huang Zhiwen''s "unreasonable request," Sima Gang naturally didn''t dare voice any objections, so he forcibly swallowed his pride and got up, grinning obsequiously, "No... no problem, Master Huang, do whatever you like."
"Really no objections? If you do, just say so. I always convince people through virtue," Huang Zhiwen "smiled" as he patted Sima Gang on the shoulder.
Sima Gang inwardly cursed.
Convince through virtue? If you were to convince through virtue, would you have pped me the moment you came in?
And frankly, he''s quite annoyed!
He had been watching Liu Tianyun as soon as she stepped into the bar.
He had approached her, chatted her up, and had been plying her with drinks.
He had just about managed to get her drunk and was close to seeding when Huang Zhiwen came out of nowhere like Lu Zhishen, snatching away his prize. If he weren''t angry, who would be?
But no matter how much he objected, Sima Gang didn''t dare voice it!
"Master Huang, I truly have no objections. She''s all yours." Sima Gangughed awkwardly.
"Are... are you even a man, not daring to fight back after getting pped?"
Liu Tianyun''s drunken scolding made Sima Gang feel incredibly embarrassed, leaving with his head hung low.
Daring not to make a sound!
"Ha ha, beautifuldy, you don''t understand. I''m the young master of the Huang Family of the Capital City, Huang Zhiwen."
"Forget about a p; even if I urinate on his head, he wouldn''t dare retaliate."
"Also, would you consider... following me? I promise to give you endless wealth and glory."
Beside her, Huang Zhiwenughed sinisterly.
Reaching out, he attempted to touch Liu Tianyun''s delicate shoulder.
"Scram!"
Liu Tianyun suddenly shouted angrily, startling Huang Zhiwen, freezing his outstretched hand in mid-air.
"I''m war...warning you."
"My best friend will be here... here any moment."
"She''s... she''s a cop. If you dare try anything, she... she won''t let you off easily!"
Chapter 504 - 493: Luck Mentality
"..."
After a moment of silence.
Huang Zhiwen''s lips curled into a disdainful smile.
"Prettydy, do you know who I am?"
"The eldest son of the Huang Family, a second-tier family in the Capital CityHuang Zhiwen."
"Your girlfriend, a mere police officer, can scare me? If she dares toe, I''ll take her along with you tonight!"
Huang Zhiwen''s words were extremely arrogant, and the four burly underlings he brought also burst intoughter.
"Prettydy, why don''t you just follow me? I won''t mistreat you." Huang Zhiwen reached out his greasy hand towards Liu Tianyun.
"You... go to hell!" Liu Tianyun was infuriated and directly sshed a ss of wine in Huang Zhiwen''s face.
"Woman, you''re asking for death!"
The burly underlings beside Huang Zhiwen immediately became agitated, rolling up their sleeves and trying to teach Liu Tianyun a lesson, but Huang Zhiwen stopped them. Not only was he not angry, but he nodded in satisfaction.
The challenge of conquering a spicy woman like this gave him a sense of aplishment.
After wiping the wine from his face, Huang Zhiwen sat down on the small stool next to Liu Tianyun.
"What do you want?" Liu Tianyun looked wary, moving back a few steps with the stool.
"I want to drink with you."
Huang Zhiwen ordered a regr cocktail from the bartender, his gaze fixed on the drunken redness on Liu Tianyun''s face, his heart fluttering.
So beautiful... an absolute beauty indeed...
Thinking that such a prize was about to be his, Huang Zhiwen couldn''t contain his excitement.
"Get this lovelydy a high-proof cocktail," Huang Zhiwen instructed the bartender, tossing ten bills onto the bar.
"Alright, sir."
"There''s just a high-proof brandy cocktail that''s already prepared."
"Please."
The bartender smiled lightly and elegantly pushed the highball ss to Liu Tianyun''s hand.
Liu Tianyun bit her lip gently, the expression on her face somewhat unpleasant.
How could she not know that Huang Zhiwen had ulterior motives by ordering her a high-proof cocktail, intending to get her drunk?
This was dangerous!
Clenching her teeth hard, she stood up shakily and said, "I... I need to go to the bathroom."
"You can''t even stand properly, how will you get to the bathroom? Come on, let me help you!" Huang Zhiwen volunteered, wearing a sleazy grin as he reached out to wrap his arm around Liu Tianyun''s waist.
"What are you doing!"
Liu Tianyun was startled, hurriedly taking a few steps back, plopping down onto the stool again, avoiding the greasy hand.
Huang Zhiwen was taken aback but then his expression darkened: "Prettydy, you''re not thinking of running away, are you?"
With that, he signaled to his underlings.
The four big guys understood and nodded, surrounding Liu Tianyun.
"Prettydy, with looks as stunning as yours, how can you use an ordinary restroom? An ordinary restroom isn''t worthy of your beauty. If you want to use the restroom,e with me to the hotel, and I''ll let you experience the restroom that matches your beauty, the presidential suite''s restroom." Huang Zhiwen said calmly, taking a sip of his cocktail.
Liu Tianyun''s face turned deathly pale.
In desperation, she shouted towards the dance floor, "Help, help, someone please save me!!!"
The voice was so loud it even drowned out the deafening DJ sound, causing many to look over.
But their reactions were identical; after ncing for a second, they averted their eyes and resumed dancing.
They frequented bars and such incidents happened daily there, they were used to it and naturally wouldn''t act heroically to rescue the beauty.
If there''s anyone to me, me yourself for being naive.
Looking this pretty and daring to be at a bar alone at suchte hours, weren''t you just offering yourself?
If the wrong people don''t target you, who would?
Seeing no response to her plea for help, Liu Tianyun felt utterly helpless, traces of panic appearing on her face.
Regret seeped in foring to such a dubious ce like a bar.
Seeing no reaction from the dance floor, Liu Tianyun turned her gaze to the bartender, pleading, "Help..."
"Prettydy, just ept your fate."
"With such stunning looks, and youe alone to a ce like a bar, no one can save you."
"Coming to such a ce requires a corresponding awareness."
"Consider this a profound lesson in your life this time."
The bartender kept wiping sses with a cloth on his own, speaking extremely dispassionately, not giving so much as a direct nce at Liu Tianyun andpletely ignoring her plea.
"Here''s your tip." Huang Zhiwen appreciated the bartender''s indifference, tossing a check for ten thousand in front of him.
"Thank you, sir." The bartender epted it cheerfully, smiling, "If there''s anything else you need, just let me know."
Their conversation, especially the bartender''s indifference, instilled a sense of despair in Liu Tianyun''s heart.
She knew bars were dirty, chaotic ces.
But due to the divorce, she had cried at home the whole afternoon, truly ending her rtionship with the man she had loved since childhood, her heart sinking to the bottom of the abyss.
Even considering ending it all by jumping off a building.
But in the end, reason triumphed over irrationality.
Liu Tianyun didn''t choose to jump; she scoured the inte, searching for ways to quickly adjust her mood and forget unhappy things.
The majority suggested: unwind in a bar.
At the time, Liu Tianyun hadplex emotions.
A club, a locale teeming with nightlife, notorious for its high crime rate, was crawling with all kinds of people.
A girl going there alone was likely to encounter danger.
But holding on to a glimmer of hope, Liu Tianyun decided to go to a bar andpletely indulge herself once, to forget all the unhappy things.
At the secluded bar, as she ordered the first cocktail, Sima Gang sat down on the stool beside her, striking up a conversation.
Being an adult, she knew exactly why Sima Gang struck up the conversation with her.
Liu Tianyun initially intended to refuse, but Sima Gang was persistent, and she didn''t have the right to kick someone off a public seat, so she had to let it go.
Realizing she shouldn''t stay long there, she just nned to have a couple of drinks and leave.
Unexpectedly, after two drinks, she started to feel tipsy, her mind became somewhat hazy, and she felt weak.
At that moment, she panicked!
Two drinks in and she was already like this; if she continued, she''d definitely get dead drunk, and then it would be dangerous.
At that point, she wanted to leave the bar.
Unexpectedly, Sima Gang blocked her, refusing to let her go, insisting that she apany him for drinks.
In desperation, she wanted to call for outside help, so she took out her phone from her bag, opened the contacts, and instinctively found Ye Huan''s number.
But just as her finger was about to press down, she hesitated, her finger hovering a few millimeters above the phone screen.
They were already divorced; how could she voluntarily call Ye Huan? What if he thought she still had feelings for him? That would be too embarrassing.
At that time, Liu Tianyun thought about this, ultimately moving her finger away from the letters "bastard" and scrolling down to "Qin Ya" to call and ask for help from Qin Ya.
She just hoped Qin Ya coulde quickly; she couldn''t hold on much longer.
Chapter 506 - 495: Fulfill You
This is Huang Zhiwen''s scream!
The four burly henchmen''s faces instantly changed drastically.
They all turned their heads.
The moment they turned, their faces went pale.
A ck shadow was seen crashing towards them like a meteor.
"Bang!!!"
Huang Zhiwen''s body smashed into the henchmen, knocking them backward together, smashing the bar counter to pieces.
The bartender was hit so hard that he spat out a mouthful of blood and passed out on the spot.
The sudden urrence of all this left Liu Tianyun stunned on the spot.
Ye Huan leisurely walked into the bar, came to Liu Tianyun, picked her up off the ground, casually patted the dust off her, and asked, "How are you, alright?"
Seeing who it was, Liu Tianyun was stunned on the spot.
"You... why are you here..."
Coming back to her senses, Liu Tianyun couldn''t believe everything in front of her was real. She only called out in her mind, how did she really "summon" someone?
She tearfully reached out, touching Ye Huan''s face.
Seeing Ye Huan''s expression with ck lines, she realized that everything was real, and her face turned crimson, only hidden by her drunken blush.
At this moment, Ye Huan frowned and spoke: "The smell of alcohol on you... is unbearable."
"Mind... mind your own business." Liu Tianyun was a bit annoyed, "Also, why did youe here!"
Ye Huan couldn''t help but feel embarrassed, "Isn''t it obvious I came to save you? Aren''t you some business queen? Isn''t it a bit worrying you''re this daft?"
"You''re... you''re the daft one. Also, who asked you to save me, nosy housekeeper!" Liu Tianyun shouted angrily, but her body uncontrobly went limp in Ye Huan''s arms.
She felt a sense of safety fill her heart, making her feel very at ease.
"Qin Ya sent me."
"And, why did you call her for help?"
"She''s still in the hospital, she can''te to rescue you."
What Ye Huan said truly made Liu Tianyun shudder with fear.
Earlier, in her drunken state, she forgot Qin Ya was still receiving treatment at the city''s hospital.
The Qin Ya she had been waiting for couldn''t possiblye!
If Qin Ya hadn''t called Ye Huan, she would have been in real danger this time.
"Damn it!"
"Who dares hit Young Master Zhiwen!"
"And destroy my ce!?"
The noise outside was loud, and Sima Gang thought someone hade to smash the ce, so he led over ten henchmen to check it out.
Seeing Huang Zhiwen and his henchmen lying in the smashed bar counter, Sima Gang was shocked.
Which kid with no eyes dared to injure the Huang family''s young master in his ce?
If the Huang family pursued it, he wouldn''t be able to escape me either.
Sima Gang was furious, looking left and right.
Finally, his gaze fixed on the calm man holding the beautiful woman.
"Kid, was it you who trashed my ce and beat Young Master Huang?" Sima Gang spat as he dragged a steel pipe toward Ye Huan, his gaze extremely sinister.
"Why, can''t I?"
Ye Huan replied calmly.
"Dare to cause trouble in my ce, looking for death!" Sima Gang yelled and swung the iron rod toward Ye Huan fiercely.
His dozen henchmen did the same, brandishing weapons toward Ye Huan.
"Bang!!!"
Suddenly, a gunshot rang out.
Sima Gang and the others froze in their tracks.
A bullet left a bloody scratch on Sima Gang''s cheek.
Had it been off by one millimeter, he would have been shot in the head.
"..."
The entire ce fell silent.
The deafening DJ music came to an abrupt halt.
The men and women dancing in the pit stopped in their tracks.
They''d seen lots of scenes, even big ones!
But it was the first time they''d seen someone actually shoot a gun!
Is this... a terrorist?
The men and women screamed, huddled into a corner of the pit.
Sima Gang and his people were all stunned, their legs went weak, trembling constantly.
Their gaze turned in unison towards the door.
A woman in ck walked in.
She had her left hand in her jacket pocket, her right hand holding a Desert Eagle, aiming straight at Sima Gang, her face like ice.
"Who did you say is looking for death?" Ye Qiqing said, her finger twitching slightly.
"Click."
The trigger pulled a bit.
Sima Gang was just a small-time gangster, mostly doing bullying with knives and sticks, when had he ever been faced with a gun?
With the ck muzzle aimed at him, he felt a chill run from his feet to his head, his crotch uncontrobly wet, emitting an unpleasant odor.
"I''m asking you, who did you say is looking for death?" Ye Qiqing coldly asked.
Sima Gang came to his senses, realizing this woman was with that guy, feeling extremely awkward, he could only reply sheepishly, "I... I said I''m looking for death..."
"Then let me fulfill that for you."
Ye Qiqing''s calm words fell.
A "bang" sounded.
The bullet shot straight through Sima Gang''s forehead, ending his life instantly.
Ye Qiqing was truly furious, in just half a night, she''d encountered two groups attempting to harm Ye Huan.
At this moment, a hand reached out in front of her.
"Lend it to me for a moment." Ye Huan said, taking Ye Qiqing''s handgun, then pointed the gun toward the bar counter.
Huang Zhiwen and his four burly henchmen weren''t unconscious, just severely injured, and seeing the gun aimed at them, their eyes filled with extreme terror and regret.
They regretted harboring inappropriate thoughts about Liu Tianyun!
But there are no regrets in life!
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Five gunshots.
Huang Zhiwen and his men, unable to resist, could only watch the bullets pierce their foreheads, sending them altogether to report to the Underworld.
After firing five shots, Ye Huan left the bar with Liu Tianyun.
"..."
"Ah!"
After a moment of silence, the men and women in the corner came back to their senses, screaming in terror.
Someone got killed, actually killed!
And six people!!!
But the next second, their terrified screams came to an abrupt halt.
Because Ye Qiqing''s icy gaze turned toward them.
"p. p. p."
Ye Qiqing pped her hands a few times, making a crisp sound.
A burst of dense footsteps responded from outside the bar, with fifty muscr men, led by tattooed arms, rushing into the bar, standing straight behind Ye Qiqing, bringing a strong visual impact.
Seeing these muscr men, the men and women shivered even more.
Ye Qiqing''s icy gaze swept over them one by one, speaking coldly:
"Forget everything about today."
"Line up, take out your IDs, I want to photograph all of your IDs!"
"Your home addresses are with me, if anyone dares speak of today''s events... the consequences will be your own."
Chapter 506 - 495: Fulfill You

But there are no regrets in life!
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Five gunshots.
Huang Zhiwen and his men, unable to resist, could only watch the bullets pierce their foreheads, sending them altogether to report to the Underworld.
After firing five shots, Ye Huan left the bar with Liu Tianyun.
"..."
"Ah!"
After a moment of silence, the men and women in the corner came back to their senses, screaming in terror.
Someone got killed, actually killed!
And six people!!!
But the next second, their terrified screams came to an abrupt halt.
Because Ye Qiqing''s icy gaze turned toward them.
"p. p. p."
Ye Qiqing pped her hands a few times, making a crisp sound.
A burst of dense footsteps responded from outside the bar, with fifty muscr men, led by tattooed arms, rushing into the bar, standing straight behind Ye Qiqing, bringing a strong visual impact.
Seeing these muscr men, the men and women shivered even more.
Ye Qiqing''s icy gaze swept over them one by one, speaking coldly:
"Forget everything about today."
"Line up, take out your IDs, I want to photograph all of your IDs!"
"Your home addresses are with me, if anyone dares speak of today''s events... the consequences will be your own."
Chapter 507 - 496: Remarry?
"You didn''t go to the Capital City?" Liu Tianyun asked softly at the entrance of the bar.
"No." Ye Huan shook his head.
Liu Tianyun''s lips curled up, "So after you got Qin Ya''s call, were you really worried about me and came to rescue me?"
Ye Huan: "..."
After a moment of silence, he replied, "Just a friend''s concern."
"Did I ask you what kind of concern it was?" Liu Tianyun''s smile widened.
Ye Huan''s face darkened.
He was afraid that answering "concern" might cause a misunderstanding with Liu Tianyun, so he had added those extra words.
Now it seemed like it didn''t help?
He didn''t want to continue with this topic, so he simply changed the subject, asking in a deep voice, "Whye to a bar? You used to be clean and proper, nevering to such mixed ces."
"Because of you."
Fueled by the alcohol, Liu Tianyun didn''t hold back and confessed, "I regret divorcing you and came to the bar to let loose, trying to drink away my troubles."
"Well, there''s no remedy for regret."
Ye Huan said casually, pulling her toward the BMW Mini, and added, "Don''te here alone anymore, it''s not safe."
"Then if youe with me, it won''t be a problem, right?"
Ye Huan was genuinely startled by Liu Tianyun''s suddenment, which had a coquettish undertone.
An ice queen acting coquettish... how strange can it get!
"Ye Huan, do you have feelings for me but are too shy to admit it?" Liu Tianyun muttered drunkenly.
The ck lines on Ye Huan''s forehead grew more, "You''re drunk!"
"I am drunk."
"If I weren''t drunk, I''d never dare to be so... so... bold with you..."
As Liu Tianyun spoke, she suddenly looked ufortable and bent over.
Retched several times, almost vomiting the contents of half her stomach.
Ye Huan gently patted her back, "Feeling better?"
"Mm... mm."
"I feel much better after throwing up."
After catching her breath, Liu Tianyun leaned into Ye Huan''s arms, bringing the topic back up with a teasing tone, "Same question, do you have feelings for me?"
"No!" Ye Huan truly didn''t want to continue on this subject and continued leading her to the car, "Alright, let''s go."
"Still no!"
"If not, why did youe to save me!"
"Even if you don''t have feelings for me, you at least have some possessiveness, right?"
Liu Tianyun persisted, wanting a clear answer from Ye Huan.
Ye Huan suddenly stopped.
He put his hands together, bowing deeply several times, "begging" her, "Liu Tianyun, please, can you stop indulging in fantasies."
"You..."
Liu Tianyun became angry, pulled away from his embrace, and pointed at him with her finger, saying "fiercely", "You say you have no feelings, no possessiveness, so just leave, I don''t need your saving!"
"There''re so many people on the street, stop making a scene." Ye Huan was truly exhausted, women could be so troublesome, couldn''t they?
"What scene, I just want you to admit it, admit you have possessiveness over me, or this won''t end." Liu Tianyun acted shamelessly.
"Well, I really don''t, are you going to kill me then..."
"I can''t bring myself to kill you. Besides, it was you who said you didn''t have possessiveness over me." Liu Tianyun snorted, then wobbled towards a male pedestrian by the roadside.
Stopped him in his tracks, "Handsome guy, can you send me home?"
The male pedestrian was startled.
Seeing Liu Tianyun''s beauty, he was suddenly delighted.
Is this a blessing? It''s like a giant pineapple from the sky.
"Of course, but beautiful girl..."
"What''s the point of going home, let me take you to a hotel to rest for a night." he said suggestively.
The next second, feeling something cold against his temple, he shivered all over.
Turned his head in terror.
Seeing a cold gun barrel and a cold face, he was so scared he wet himself, pants soaking.
"Bro, you... you..."
"If you don''t want to die, then go away quickly." Ye Huan said coldly, scaring the man into nodding repeatedly before running off without looking back!
Seeing this, Liu Tianyun''s lips curled up again, and despite barely able to stand, she trotted after the male pedestrian, calling out, "Handsome, don''t run, you... send me home!"
The male pedestrian hesitated for a moment, then ran even faster, his face turning pale!
"Are you done making a fuss?" Ye Huan grabbed Liu Tianyun''s arm, very impatient.
"Upset?" Liu Tianyun looked pleased, "Now will you admit you have possessiveness over me?"
"Self-delusional." Ye Huan said annoyed.
"You know if I''m self-delusional..."
"You''re really drunk; I''ll take you back!" Ye Huan interrupted Liu Tianyun, pushing her into the passenger seat.
With a "bang", he shut the passenger door and got into the driver''s seat, starting the car.
"What are you doing!"
"Taking you home."
"I won''t go home, unless you admit you have possessiveness over me!"
"How can I admit to something that doesn''t exist?"
Ye Huan dered righteously, but his face was red.
He did feel a slight possessiveness towards Liu Tianyun; after all, she was once his wife, even if just in name.
But he couldn''t admit it.
If he admitted it, where would Brother Huan hide his face?
"You''re just being contrary." Liu Tianyun, seeing his blush, got the answer she wanted and felt satisfied.
She hummed and said, "I want to see the scenery, sober up."
...
Huangpu River bridge.
"Whoosh"
The harsh wind hit Liu Tianyun.
She was only wearing a thin officedy outfit, shivering continuously.
Ye Huan was in good shape, not feeling any difort, and draped his jacket over her.
The two remained like this, looking at the city neon reflections, the endless flow, and the surging river water.
Watched for a good half hour.
"If you stay longer, you''ll catch a cold." Ye Huan said, seeing Liu Tianyun had no intention of leaving.
Liu Tianyun didn''t respond.
After several more minutes, Ye Huan patted her shoulder, "Hey, Liu Tianyun, are you out of your mind? Time to go back, right?"
"You''re the one out of your mind." Liu Tianyun said sharply.
"As long as you''re not out of your mind, that''s good. I''m saying, time to go back, right?" Ye Huan said.
"..."
Another silent moment.
Ye Huan could see Liu Tianyun''s physical state.
If they stayed here for another five minutes, Liu Tianyun would definitely catch a cold and fever.
Ye Huan patted her again, "Time to go back, if you keep staying here, you''ll really get sick."
Suddenly.
While gazing at the river, Liu Tianyun tucked back the stray hair blown by the river wind behind her ear and gently opened her red lips.
Softly spoke the words she had prepared for a good half hour.
"Ye Huan, let''s get back together?"
Chapter 508 - 497: Is It So Hard to Admit It!
"Wow"
Vehicles came and went on the bridge, the roar of engines was deafening.
Under the streetlight, Tianyun turned her head, staring directly at Ye Huan, waiting for his answer.
Ye Huan was stunned for a long time, obviously not expecting Tianyun to say such a thing.
But when he came to his senses, he frowned and refused without thinking: "No reconciliation."
"But I want to reconcile, I really regret it!" Tianyun gritted her teeth.
Regret?
Ye Huan said coldly, "Tianyun, marriage is not a child''s y. Have you ever heard of a couple getting divorced in the morning and remarried the next day?"
"Just because you haven''t heard of it doesn''t mean it can''t happen!"
"I won''t mention divorce again, and I''ll try to be a gentle and virtuous wife."
"I won''t be cold to you anymore and will try to share you with Lilith and the others. Please reconcile with me, okay?"
In the biting cold wind, Tianyun''s legs trembled, but after she sincerely pleaded, she still stepped forward, trying to hug Ye Huan.
But because she was drunk, she lost her bnce as soon as she took a step, losing her footing and falling with a scream.
Fortunately, Ye Huan reached out and caught her just in time.
He helped her up, and after she regained her bnce, he stepped back slightly, shook his head slowly, and sighed, "Tianyun, I can''t reconcile with you. Don''t bring it up again."
It was hard enough to get divorced; he certainly didn''t want to get married again.
"But I love you, after our divorce, I feel like dying!"
Tianyun, emboldened by the alcohol, bluntly said words akin to a confession.
Ye Huan knew Tianyun had feelings for him, but hearing her confession-like words, he couldn''t help but blush.
"Without reconciling with you, I don''t know how to go on living!"
"And you have no reason not to reconcile with me. You obviously have possessiveness towards me!"
"Could it be that you''re willing to watch me be with another man?"
Tianyun added, dering her lifetime attachment to Ye Huan, making her statement merely to provoke him.
Admittedly, it was very effective!
Ye Huan was inexplicably angry. He couldn''t admit to having possessiveness over his "ex-wife" in front of his "ex-wife."
It''s too embarrassing.
He''d beughed at!
"Please, stop being delusional!" Ye Huan gritted through clenched teeth.
"Ha."
"You think I''m delusional? Then let me ask you a few questions to see if I''m the one being delusional or you''re being insincere."
"You must answer truthfully."
Tianyun put her hands on her hips, pouting as she spoke.
"I refuse to answer," Ye Huan said darkly.
"If you don''t answer, then you admit you have possessiveness towards me, and you don''t want to see me involved with other men."
"Then go ahead and ask!" Ye Huan said, now provoked and a bit exasperated.
Tianyun held up one finger and threw out a question, "At the Capital City civil affairs office, when ady introduced me to her son and handed me his contact information and photo, why did you react so strangely? Why did you step between thedy and me? You didn''t want me to take the photo and contact information, did you?"
The first question made Ye Huan''s face flush.
His thoughts at the time were exactly as Tianyun described, but he couldn''t admit it, for he''d surely be ridiculed by Tianyun!
"You''re overthinking. I didn''t deliberatelye between you and thedy, and I had no intention of preventing you from taking the photo and note." Ye Huan intentionally lowered his voice to sound serious, trying to add credibility to his words.
Little did he know, it instead sounded very forced.
His reaction gave Tianyun the answer she wanted, and she smiled even more.
"The second question," Tianyun raised a second finger, "When you saw me chatting with thedy''s son on WeChat, your reaction was also strange, repeatedly advising me from a side angle not to continue talking to her son. You must have felt annoyed seeing me chatting with the son, am I right?"
Ye Huan''s face turned red again. How did she keep guessing right?
Even his gaze became evasive as he retorted, "That wasn''t the case, you''re overthinking it."
"Am I overthinking it, or is someone too shy to admit it?"
With a teasing remark, Tianyun extended a third finger and continued asking, "When I asked a male passerby to take me home just now, you instinctively got anxious and drew a gun. Why is that?"
Ye Huan felt like he''dpletely lost face.
He indeed got anxious, but he couldn''t admit it!
He tly denied, "I didn''t get anxious, stop talking nonsense!"
"You clearly got anxious!"
"Back then, you were so angry, without a second thought, you pulled out a gun and threatened that pedestrian to leave."
"What else could that be but possessiveness for me? That''s your subconscious reaction, you can''t exin it away!"
"Is it really that hard to admit you''re possessive of me, that embarrassing?"
Liu Tianyun went on and on passionately.
The more she spoke, the more embarrassed Ye Huan became, his face turning beet red.
"You''re drunk, I''ll take you home!" Ye Huan said, feeling both ashamed and angry as he reached out and grabbed Liu Tianyun''s arm.
Liu Tianyun took the chance to dive into his embrace, wrapped her arms around his waist, and buried her head in his chest.
The drunken flush on her cheeks masked that hint of newly risen blush.
"Onest question."
"This afternoon, when you took me back to S-01, I made a ''call'' after you left. The call was about me ''dating'' someone else. How did you feel and react when you heard that?"
"Please describe it truthfully!"
When Liu Tianyun said this, her tone was coy and charming.
Her voice was naturally ethereal and pleasant, and when she acted spoiled, it really took Ye Huan''s breath away, making his whole body weak.
As he felt weakened, Ye Huan secretly grumbled in his heart.
This woman can be as cold as an iceberg, but when she acts spoiled, her charm is even more overwhelming than a little girl''s?
Is this what they call charming contrasts???
Ridiculous!
Ye Huan muttered inwardly, his old face alsopletely flushed red, like a monkey''s butt!
Describing how he felt and reacted at that time?
Not just then, even now, thinking of it still brings a surge of inexplicable anger.
"Why are you quiet? If you don''t want to say, forget it. Even if you stay silent, I can guess how you felt and reacted!"
"You must have been very frustrated, very angry, and really wanted to know who I was meeting!"
"Don''t rush to deny it."
Liu Tianyun extended her finger to Ye Huan''s lips, stopping him from speaking.
With a yful expression, she continued, "If you want to know who I was meeting, just tell me now, and I''ll let you know."
Ye Huan was very tempted.
Saying he didn''t want to know would be a lie.
But he couldn''t show it too obviously either.
"Uh..." Ye Huan''s eyes flickered, his tone very unnatural, "I... I might be a little curious."
"Is it a little, or a lot?"
"But, that''s not important. Whether it''s a little or a lot, it still indirectly means you admit you have possessiveness over me."
"Since that''s the case, you definitely don''t want me to have anything to do with other men, so what reason do you have not to remarry me?"
"Remarry me, okay?"
Liu Tianyun asked softly, her gaze filled with hope, wishing for Ye Huan to give her a satisfactory answer.
But Ye Huan knew he was being tricked, feeling utterly humiliated and angry, how could he agree?
"Please, stop being delusional, I don''t have the slightest possessiveness over you, nor do I care who you''re meeting!"
With that, he took hold of Liu Tianyun and walked towards the BMW Mini, "Come on, stop messing around, I''ll take you home!"
This time, even Liu Tianyun was a bit angry!
What''s so hard about admitting he has possessiveness over her?
She had said so much, literally speaking until her mouth was dry, but this stubborn pig still wouldn''t admit it, wasting her breath!
Liu Tianyun broke free from Ye Huan''s embrace, then pointed towards the surging river below the bridge, and shouted in embarrassment and anger:
"Fine, you say you aren''t possessive of me!"
"I''ll give you a chance to prove it to me!"
"As long as you jump down from here, I''ll believe you aren''t possessive of me, and I won''t bother you ever again!"
"Fine, it''s your own words, don''t regret it!"
Ye Huan said through gritted teeth, as he pped the bridge railing with one hand, making a pole-vaulting motion, and leapt down.
This action turned Liu Tianyun''s face ghostly pale!
"Don''t jump!!!"
Liu Tianyun screamed anxiously, reaching her arms out to grab Ye Huan, but it was toote!
She rushed to the railing, only to hear a "thud" from below the bridge, and water sshing up from the river
Chapter 509 - 498: Are you coming down here to deliver a head to King Yama?
Liu Tianyun covered her mouth, her originally flushed face turning as pale as paper.
She had just wanted to provoke Ye Huan out of embarrassment, she hadn''t really intended for him to jump!
The Huangpu River was in flood season, with rapid currents, and there were often news reports of people being swept away and drowning during winter swims!
Seeing that the river below the bridge showed no response, Liu Tianyun burst into tears on the spot, filled with regret and hating herself to the core.
Why did she have to say such things!
She had practically killed Ye Huan!
If Ye Huan were dead, she couldn''t live alone either!
Without a moment''s hesitation, Liu Tianyun climbed over the railing and jumped off the bridge resolutely!
If they couldn''t be together in life, then they''d be united in death!
She closed her eyes, feeling her body plummet rapidly.
Seven secondster, she plunged into the river.
But she found that she wasn''t being swept away by the water.
Moreover... it felt like someone was holding her?
Could it be a rescuer?
"Don''t save me, let me die!"
Liu Tianyun kept pping the water, sobbing and shouting that she wanted to die with Ye Huan.
"Are you bored or something? Why are you looking to die?"
A scolding voice made Liu Tianyun freeze.
That voice was so familiar.
After opening her eyes and seeing the familiar face, she cried tears of joy, "Ye Huan, you... you''re not dead?"
"You seem to really wish I were dead?" Ye Huan said irritably.
"I... I don''t!"
"But, why did you... howe you..."
Liu Tianyun looked incredulous as she noticed that Ye Huan was holding her, and the rapid river hadn''t swept them away one bit.
"Didn''t you tell me to jump in, saying I''d stop bothering you afterwards? So I just took a dip. But why did you jump down?"
"The current is so strong it could drown even Sun Yang, jumping down is like sending yourself to King Yama." Ye Huan scolded.
"You''re the one sending yourself to King Yama! I was afraid you''d drown, so I came down to retrieve your body!" Liu Tianyun angrily hit Ye Huan''s chest with her fists and retorted, "And why are you so stupid, I tell you to jump and you jump? Why do you always refuse when I want to remarry you?"
"Sorry, just a t-out refusal!" Ye Huan made a "firm rejection" gesture.
If the world knew that in the middle of the night, someone was "flirting" in the turbulent Huangpu River, it would definitely cause a sensation.
With this in mind, Ye Huan didn''t linger in the river too long, he held Liu Tianyun and swam to the riverbank.
"Rejection is futile." After a few seconds of silence, Liu Tianyun blushed and said in her heart.
She had already decided, even if it meant dying, she wouldn''t leave Ye Huan''s side again, she wouldn''t let go.
Liu Tianyun wasn''t in good health to begin with, soaking in the icy river water during winter, her whole body drenched which led to symptoms of a cold as soon as she got ashore.
By the time they drove to Peni Lakefront, fifteen minutes had passed.
Along the way, Liu Tianyun was curled up in the passenger seat, shivering, her teeth chattering non-stop, and even when she fell asleep, she kept yawning, her nose red, clearly she caught a chill.
The best way to alleviate this condition is to get her into a hot bath as soon as possible.
When the car stopped at S-01, Ye Huan hurriedly carried her to the second-floor bathroom, removed her coat and ced her into the bathtub.
"Ye Huan, I''m so cold." Liu Tianyun''s face was in pain, muttering repeatedly while tightly holding onto Ye Huan''s arm.
"I''ll run a hot bath for you, hang in there."
Ye Huan picked up the shower head next to him, ran hot water and let it flow over her body, the pain on her face eased a lot, and the frequency of her yawning decreased somewhat.
Ye Huan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
This timely hot bath would mean that at most, Liu Tianyun would catch a cold, she wouldn''t have a fever, and taking cold medicine for two days would be enough to recover.
Having calmed down, while he was running water for Liu Tianyun, Ye Huan noticed something "remarkable".
Oh my.
The size of it was outrageous!
Did she grow up drinking papaya milk?
Ye Huan''s throat involuntarily gulped.
"Do not look at what is inappropriate!"
"Do not look at what is inappropriate!"
"Do not look at what is inappropriate!"
Realizing he was losing his cool, Ye Huan forcibly controlled his gaze away from the bathtub room, repeating the important mantra in his heart three times, and dutifully showered himself instead.
One minuteter.
Finishing his shower, Ye Huan went to the first-floor bedroom to change into pajamas and then returned to the second-floor bathroom to lift the sleeping Liu Tianyun out of the bathtub, tossed her wet clothes in the washing machine, and dried her with a bath towel.
After drying her off, Ye Huan carried her to the second-floor bedroom and ced her on the bed.
Then, Ye Huan walked to the closet to find her some clothes to change into.
Oh dear...
Why is this icebergdy''s wardrobe filled with pink clothes besides work outfits?
The bed sheets and quilt covers were also pink, even the walls and floor had pink wallpaper.
Cold on the outside, yet soft and pink on the inside?
Truly "knowing the face but not the heart"!
After some contemtion, Ye Huan took a set of pink pajamas and an undergarment from the closet.
When it came time to dress Liu Tianyun, Ye Huan was stumped.
As for bras, he could undo them and take off dozens or hundreds in no time.
Absolutely an expert yer!
But when it came to helping put them on... he had zero experience!
He tried several times, which woke the sleeping Liu Tianyun, yet he still couldn''t seed!
"..."
The two stared at each other, the scene turned extremely awkward.
Liu Tianyun''s face turned red.
A bit of blush from alcohol, but mostly from embarrassment.
She had been seenpletely!
"I..." Ye Huan''s face was somewhat awkward, he gave an embarrassed smile.
"Did you bathe me?" Liu Tianyun asked faintly.
"Didn''t bathe..." Ye Huan replied embarrassingly, "I saw you were cold, so I put you in the bathtub for a fifteen-minute hot bath."
"Then what about my clothes?" Liu Tianyun asked faintly.
"Can''t have you wearing them after the bath, you''d catch a cold." Ye Huan answered with a wink.
"And what are you doing now? Trying to help me put on a bra but can''t get it on?" Liu Tianyun found it somewhat amusing.
Seeing her showing a rare smile, Ye Huan broke out in a cold sweat.
He swallowed and nodded, "Yes."
As he spoke, he prepared himself inwardly to be scolded.
To his surprise...
"Useless, move aside." Liu Tianyun only said with embarrassment, pushed Ye Huan off and began dressing herself.
Ye Huan sat at the foot of the bed, confused.
By logic, shouldn''t Liu Tianyun be chasing him with a knife right now? Why didn''t she show any signs of anger?
"Be careful next time." Liu Tianyun had already dressed herself and was fastening her pajama buttons as she spoke.
Be careful next time?
Just like that?
Ye Huan opened his mouth wide, feeling somewhat incredulous.
This isn''t right...
He frowned, sensing things weren''t simple, Liu Tianyun''s reaction was simply too abnormal.
Could it be that she''s pretending on the surface and actually waiting for a chance to, "help Brother Huan self-castrate"?
Very likely!
Ye Huan wore a vignt expression, he would not fall for it.
"Girls shouldn''t sleep with wet hair, it''s easy to get headaches, remember that in the future, got it?"
Chapter 510 - 499: Too Sentimental!
Ye Huan''s eyes widened, once again confused.
Don''t sleep with wet hair?
Hey, hey, hey, is this important!
Ye Huan muttered to himself, starting to suspect that Tianyun had jumped into the river and gone crazy.
Otherwise, how to exin her focus on hair instead of being seen naked?
No way...
Could it be that Tianyun is pretending to be stupid?
Yes, that''s definitely it!
She''s definitely trying to make him let down his guard and take the chance to "help" Brother Huan castrate himself!
Upon thinking of this, Ye Huan''s face gradually grew serious.
He mustn''t let Tianyun seed!
Growing more cautious at heart, Ye Huan nodded and said, "Got it."
"Good, just pay more attention in the future."
Tianyun said, picking up a hairdryer and pressing the switch.
"Whirr"
The hairdryer blew hot air, and visibly, her waterfall-like long ck hair began to dry.
Seeing she was just drying her hair, with no intention tounch a sudden attack, Ye Huan furrowed his brow, feeling somewhat confused.
Could it be... this is also an act to make him rx his vignce?
Ye Huan nodded secretly, thinking it quite possible, remaining tense with his gaze fixed straight on Tianyun.
Little did he know... Tianyun was really not angry!
Having been seen by the man she had set her heart on, she only felt shy, nothing else, so naturally, she couldn''t get angry.
Blowing her hair, Tianyun''s eyes and expression were quite unnatural.
With Ye Huan staring at her like that, she felt extremely shy.
Ten minutester.
Tianyun put down the hairdryer and stood up.
Finally... is iting?
Ye Huan''s body tensed.
It''s not easy to deal with a woman in a rage.
Especially one who seems calm on the surface but seething inside, dealing with her could really be life-threatening.
The next second...
What''s going on?
She walked past him withoutunching an attack?
Ye Huan''s brow knitted into a ck line, not understanding Tianyun''s intentions.
"Click."
Hearing that crisp sound, he twitched his lips.
The door had been locked!
As expected, are we really going to fight?
Watching Tianyun walking toward him, he was extremely cautious, not missing any subtle changes in her expression.
As the God of ughter, who had survived thousands of ughters in the Dark World, he knew clearly that before people strike, their eyes and expressions would reveal fierceness.
As long as he observed carefully, the moment Tianyun revealed fierceness, Brother Huan could dodge danger!
But there was no fierceness on Tianyun''s face, only a shy and bashful look!
What she did next left Brother Huan dumbfounded.
Tianyun, blushing, leaned against his chest, theny down with him, pulling the quilt over them both.
Under the quilt, she slightly adjusted her posture, curling up in Ye Huan''s arms like a kitten.
In such close proximity, smelling the subtle fragrance on Tianyun, Ye Huan couldn''t help but feel a bit flustered.
But the flustersted only a second.
He knew very well that if he let down his guard in such a situation, the danger of "being castrated" would exponentially increase!
Ye Huan''s body tensed more tightly, his cautious heart nearly in his throat.
"Ye Huan, are you very tense?" Feeling Ye Huan''s muscles tense, Tianyun teased.
Tense?
Why would I be tense, don''t you have a clue?
Ye Huan snorted coldly to himself, remaining silent, still vignt.
"What are you nervous about?"
"I''m not a monster."
"I won''t gobble you up in one bite."
Tianyun''s lips curled up into a perfect arc.
Suspicious!
So suspicious!
Is this still the ice-cold woman?
Especially when Tianyun reached out a hand and cradled his left cheek, it startled Brother Huan!
Tianyun... is she finally going to make a move?
Ye Huan''s body tensed, and instinctively he reached to protect his vital parts.
But instead, he ended up "protecting" Tianyun''s hip bone, even squeezing it!
"Ah!" Tianyun screamed, then lifted her head, ring at Ye Huan with embarrassment and anger, "What are you doing."
"A slip of the hand, a slip of the hand..."
Ye Huanughed awkwardly, muttering a string of curses internally.
Seeing her naked, and the undressing issue isn''t resolved yet, now he pinched her, it seems like courting a dreadful death.
But, to be honest, the feel of it just now... was even bouncier than cotton candy!
But...
After the pinch, Tianyun must be furious and about to explode, right?
But Tianyun''s next reaction was the opposite of what Brother Huan expected, leaving him stunned again!
"You jerk, and we haven''t even remarried yet, and you''re doing this to me?" Tianyun''s words carried no anger, only shyness.
What''s going on...
Something''s terribly off!
Ye Huan began to suspect, wondering if Tianyun had been possessed by some vixen!
At this moment...
"Ye Huan, do you think I''m beautiful?" Tianyun''s lips curled up, suddenly throwing out a question.
"Beautiful..."
Ye Huan blurted out, then covered his mouth, feeling his face flush red.
But undeniably, Tianyun truly was beautiful.
Tianyun wore a proud expression, smiling sweetly, "Then let''s remarry? That way, you can see me every day, and I''ll dress up beautifully for you every day."
She said such mushy words bolstered by alcohol courage, and once she finished, her heart pounded rapidly.
Remarry?
Ye Huan sighed and said, "Tianyun, I think we''re better off as friends..."
"I''m just informing you, not discussing with you." Tianyun huffed, decisively interrupting Ye Huan, "At thetest, by tomorrow night, we''ll be remarried."
Ye Huan''s heart sank, as if realizing something, twitching his lips, "What do you mean..."
Tianyun snorted and said:
"I''ll tell Mom to help us handle the remarriage procedures."
"Even if you don''t show up, our marital status will legally revert to the past."
"..."
The room fell silent.
Ye Huan''s face turned as ck as midnight.
Tianyun''s move left him powerless.
Support is definitely with Tianyun, not him.
"Ye Huan, I''ve decided on you for this life. Unless you kill me, you can''t shake me off."
"Don''t worry, from now on, I''ll learn to be a good wife, a qualified wife."
"And I''ll gradually conquer you, making you truly fall in love with me."
While Tianyun hummed softly, she extended a finger to lift Ye Huan''s chin, staring down at him with words full of determination.
"You..." Ye Huan wanted to say something, but Tianyun wouldn''t give the chance.
"From tonight, sleep with me!"
"You can rest with Lilith and the others too, but when you''re not with them, you must rest with me, understand?"
"However... for now, don''t be too excessive with me, I... I''m not ready for those thoughts yet, give me some time..."
Tianyun''s voice lowered, bing very shy when she said this.
With that, she sat up and flicked off the wall light switch.
The room instantly darkened.
Shezily stretched, then yawned after her body rxed; two fair, slender arms wrapped around Ye Huan''s neck, her soft lips gently whispered in his ear:
"Dear, I''m a bit sleepy, going to sleep first, you sleep early too."
"Good night~"
This voice triggered a wave of goosebumps across Ye Huan, causing him to shiver multiple times before calming down.
Damn... that was too mushy!
Chapter 511 - 500: The Stepping Stone to Returning to the Family!
Feeling goosebumps, Ye Huan''s slightly rxed vignce once again surged up to his throat.
Could it be that Liu Tianyun is pretending to sleep, actually trying to lower Huan''s guard to strike at the right moment?
Damn, that won''t do...
Half an hourter.
Listening to Liu Tianyun''s even breathing, Ye Huan furrowed his brow deeply.
He was sure that Liu Tianyun was truly asleep.
If she really intended to attack at the right moment, she wouldn''t have fallen asleep.
There''s only one exnation...
She never considered any of those things!
But this doesn''t make sense...
Ye Huan remembered, in the past, he also sent the drunken Liu Tianyun back to S-01.
At that time, he simply carried her upstairs and did nothing else, yet she scolded him to high heaven, leaving no room for exnation.
For someone like Ye Huan, who has dominated the Dark World for seven years, how could he endure such grievance?
In the incident with Liu Tianyun, her refusal to listen to exnations, and temper worse than a stinkytrine, left Huan upset for a long time, harboring resentment, even contributing significantly to his determination to divorce.
This time, she was also drunk.
He not only carried her but took even more daring actions.
Yet she showed no signs of anger, and instead acted coyly, showing a shy demeanor.
Hell, what''s going on!
It''s as though she''s a different person!
Ye Huan''s eyes widened in disbelief.
Soon, Ye Huan found the answer.
When Liu Tianyun said the words "I will strive to be a qualified wife," her expression was very serious and sincere, clearly from the heart.
The final "good night" was rich with affection; otherwise, it wouldn''t have given him goosebumps.
Slightly lifting the quilt, gazing at the woman curled up like a cat on his chest, with a sweet smile on her sleeping face, Ye Huan sighed.
This sticky one seems...
Like she''s not going to let go?
Capital City, Li Family residence.
In the dead of night, the whole courtyard''s only dim light came from the side room''s study.
"Patriarch, you''ve already exceeded the sleeping time prescribed by Doctor Jiang, you shouldn''t stay up any longer; please rest quickly." Assistant Xiao Wu anxiously expressed.
"I''ll rest after finishing what I''m handling, don''t worry." Li Hentian, wearing gold-rimmed sses, holding a pen, was handling Li Family''s affairs documents.
Xiao Wu sighed, having no choice but to pace patiently by the side.
Two hourster, he couldn''t wait any longer.
"Patriarch, you must go to sleep now"
He swallowed his following words.
Because Li Hentian had finished his current task.
"I''ll assist you in resting." Xiao Wu proposed.
Li Hentian shook his head, refusing out loud, "I haven''t reached the point where I can''t walk on my own."
Having spoken, he stood up, hands behind his back, walking out of the study towards the master bedroom.
During this time, Xiao Wu escorted him.
"How''s the matter with the Qin Family going?" Li Hentian inquired halfway through.
"Reporting to the family, the Qin Family has proactively expressed to the Nan Family their desire for their youngest daughter to engage with Nan Zhan''s eldest son, Nan Rui, as you instructed."
"Upon hearing this, Nan Family''s Patriarch Nan Zhan jumped out of the ICU excited but, before his head recovered, broke a leg again."
"Yet, he was eager to spread the news, exaggeratedly processing it, iming the Qin Family''s engagement as them actively seeking a marriage alliance with his Nan Family."
"This matter has stirred quite the storm in the Capital City."
Xiao Wu reported all the information received.
"Ha!" Upon hearing this, Li Hentian uttered a disdainful chuckle, "Qin Family actively seeking a marriage alliance with his Nan Family? Nan Zhan truly seems excited beyond reason to release such nonsense, utterly ridiculous."
"Indeed, very ridiculous."
"However, Patriarch, won''t taking this action upset the young master?"
Xiao Wu tentatively asked.
"As long as it achieves the objective of strengthening connections with Dragon Gate, unrest can be tolerated." Li Hentian replied expressionlessly.
As he spoke, his eyes showed a ruthless glint, "The Nan Family has been arrogant enough for quite a while; fortunately, they''re also on ''that list,'' let''s use this opportunity to deal with them while demonstrating a warning to others."
Xiao Wu''s expression slightly tensed, "You mean"
"Since the Nan Family exaggerated the news, let''s turn the situation to our advantage."
"Inform the Qin Family to send a marriage alliance invitation to the Nan Family."
"Moreover, set the wedding date to one monthter."
"The venue will be Nan Family''s courtyard."
"One monthter, my grandson will take a concubine in Nan Family''s courtyard."
"And return home to the family!"
Li Hentian sternly concluded, waving a hand as he entered the master bedroom, closing the door behind him.
Xiao Wu stood stunned for quite a while, then silently mourned for the Nan Family for three seconds.
The Patriarch''s intention is to use the Nan Family as a stepping stone for the young master to return to the family and make a name in the Capital City!
Celestial Sea City, First People''s Hospital, advanced ICU ward.
"Brother, you have to avenge me!!!" On the hospital bed, Nan Zhen cried with heart-wrenching sobs.
After a whole night, a nine-hour rescue effort, he survived until dawn.
Yet his limbs'' joints had turned into dust; not even an expert doctor, nor a deity, could restore him.
Learning of this, he could not stop crying, unable to ept going from the dignified Nan Family''s third young master to a man incapacitated, reliant on others for eating and restroom needs, destined to spend life bedridden as a cripple.
Seated beside the bed sat a man appearing around thirty, silently smoking, his solemn face seemingly ready to drip water.
Nan Family''s eldest sonNan Rui.
Upon hearing of his younger brother''s severe injury, he rushed in a frantic pace, dispatching a private helicopter, arriving in Celestial Sea within an hour.
At the surgery room''s door, he waited alongside Su Zhiqiang for eight hours.
The surgery ended, the doctor''s words "unable to recover" not only stunned Nan Zhen, but his elder brother also found it hard to ept.
Nan Rui and Nan Zhen were full brothers, same mother and father, a rarity in elite families, as most nobles are half-siblings from different mothers.
This closeness meant they were deeply bonded, growing up inseparable, never feuding.
Seeing his own brother now a cripple, as the elder brother, his pain is deep and visible.
"Brother, Ye Huan is far too despicable, it''s all his fault I ended up like this!"
"You must avenge me!!!"
Chapter 512 - 501: The Nan Family Set to Soar?
Nan Zhen cried more and more miserably.
"What really happened, tell me everything from start to finish!" Nan Rui looked at Su Zhiqiang beside him, his eyes filled with rage.
Earlier, while waiting in front of the operating room, he was too worried about Nan Zhen''s condition to ask.
Su Zhiqiang swallowed hard and recounted the series of events from the concert, to Ye''s Clubhouse, and then to the barbecue stand, telling Nan Rui everything.
He wasn''t present at the concert, so he simply told Nan Rui that Ye Huan made Nan Zhen look like a clown in front of countless people, disgraced, without mentioning the details.
He was present at Ye''s Clubhouse and the barbecue stand, and he described it vividly, not missing a single detail, even sharing some of his own analyses with Nan Rui.
"A Zhen was humiliated twice by that kid and thought that the ck gold membership card of Ye''s Clubhouse that the kid had was obtained by threatening Ye Qiqing, so he nned to set a trap to take revenge on that kid, hoping to restore his honor and avenge Ye Qiqing, thereby pleasing her?"
"But when Ye Qiqing arrived, she directly turned Flower Arm and the others against him, leaving A Zhen crippled?"
"Regarding Ye Qiqing calling that kid ''Big Brother Ye'', do you think the person Ye Qiqing publicly proposed to at the business cocktail party in Celestial Sea was this Ye Huan?"
After listening to Su Zhiqiang and organizing the information in his mind, Nan Rui asked in a low voice.
"Yes." Su Zhiqiang nodded heavily.
Nan Rui thought hard and also found this spection quite usible.
His face grew increasingly stern, and a strong killing intent toward Ye Huan arose in his heart, along with extreme dissatisfaction with Ye Qiqing.
"Brother, I can''t swallow this anger, you must avenge me!!!"
"Ye Huan and Ye Qiqing, both deserve to die!!!"
Aside, Nan Zhen cried miserably.
In his heart, besides the overwhelming hatred for Ye Huan, there was only endless regret!
He brought a team of muscr men to teach Ye Huan a lesson, to avenge himself and please Ye Qiqing, not to be crippled himself!
He went there to make Ye Huan unable to take care of himself, not to make himself unable to take care of himself!
If he had known this would happen, he wouldn''t have sought trouble with Ye Huan at all!
"Why are you crying, just know how to cry!"
Nan Rui suddenly roared, scaring Nan Zhen and Su Zhiqiang, whose faces turned pale.
He was already upset, thinking about how to handle this matter, and Nan Zhen''s crying made him both heartbroken and annoyed.
"Brother, if you don''t avenge me, I might as well be dead like this!" Nan Zhen said, shaking his head, trying to shake off the oxygen mask on his face.
"Hey, what''s the rush!" Nan Rui sighed anxiously, quickly stopping Nan Zhen''s actions, "You''re like this, how could big brother not avenge you? I''m just thinking of a strategy! That kid is Ye Qiqing''s beloved, ordinary ways won''t easily deal with him!"
Hearing this, Nan Zhen''s movements stopped, but his face was still full of hatred, his eyes poisonous to the extreme.
He unceremoniously asked, "So what are you thinking of?"
"You..."
Nan Rui really wanted to give his unpromising brother a p, he had just started thinking!
But continuing to think is futile.
Ye Huan is Ye Qiqing''s beloved.
Messing with him is equivalent to messing with Ye Qiqing.
Behind Ye Qiqing is the Ye Family
The Nan Family, at present, can''t oppose Ye Qiqing and the Ye Family, and thus can''t seek revenge on that kid.
But this is only temporary...
Nan Rui''s eyes shed with deep-seated killing intent, and he said, "I will help you avenge, but it will be after a month. And if we are to take revenge, it can only be against Ye Huan at most."
"Why can''t we do it now?" Nan Zhen looked disgruntled, he wished he could cut Ye Huan into a thousand pieces right now, and he also deeply hated Ye Qiqing, but he understood the stakes.
The little princess of the Ye and Li Families is not someone the Nan Family can retaliate against.
"Early this morning, a letter came from the Dragon Gate''s Qin Family, proposing to marry their youngest daughter into my family."
"A wedding is to be held at the Nan Family''s grand manor one monthter."
Nan Rui''s indifferent words first left Nan Zhen dumbfounded, then incredibly excited.
"Brother, is this really settled?" Nan Zhen was so excited that his voice trembled a bit.
"It is settled." Nan Zhen said indifferently, "So thirty dayster, it will be the day we take revenge on that kid and clear the grudge."
Upon hearing this, Nan Zhen burst into maniacalughter.
The Qin Family, that''s the Dragon Gate''s Qin Family!
The status of the Qin Family in the Dragon Gate is equal to the status of the Ye Family in Huaxia in the open!
But it is only equivalent under two different conditions.
If the Qin Family were put in Huaxia openly, they would be stronger than the Li Family, let alone the Ye Family!
The Nan Family being able to marry into the Qin Family is truly like luck umted over eight generations!
After the marriage, with the Qin Family as backing, the Nan Family will leap to be the third super family in Huaxia!
The future is incredibly promising.
Even the Ye and Li Families have never married into a family from the Dragon Gate.
Dragon Gate is the existence guarding the national gate of Huaxia, the essence of Huaxia country.
The Nan Family bing inws with the second family of the Dragon Gate, in the future, after Li Hentian, the Patriarch of the Li Family, and Ye Yaoguo, the Patriarch of the Ye Family, pass away, there''s definitely a chance to step into politics!
With the Qin Family backing them, and a bit more effort, after entering the center of politics, the Nan Family could step over the Ye and Li Families, bing the true number one family, controlling the entire Huaxia!
The Nan Family is about to prosper, about to ascend to the heavens in one step!
The more Nan Zhen thought about it, the more excited he became both in appearance and in mood.
Had his legs not been crippled, he would have jumped up in excitement.
However...
There was one thing he couldn''t understand no matter how he thought about it.
Why would the massive Qin Family suddenly want an alliance by marriage with his Nan Family?
Could it be...
"Brother, the girl the Qin Family is marrying you, does she have some congenital defect?" Nan Zhen asked tentatively, implying to ask if she was very ugly.
"That''s none of your concern!" Nan Rui''s words carried a bit of anger, this was what was bothering him.
He understood the saying that nothing cheap is good.
But with something cheap, at least you paid for it!
This was offered voluntarily, you don''t even have to think about the quality!
What man would want to marry an ugly woman as a wife?
But there was no choice, this ugly woman is the youngest daughter of the Qin Family, for the sake of revitalizing the Nan Family, he must marry her.
No matter how ugly, he could only grit his teeth and endure!
The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, and he pushed this matter to the back of his mind.
Taking a deep breath to calm himself, Nan Rui shifted the topic back, saying in a deep voice:
"On the day of my wedding, I will have someone bring that kid to you. Whether you want to break his limbs or torture him to death, it''s up to you."
"You can take revenge on him however you wish."
Nan Zhen grinned ominously, nodding his head.
He wasn''t yet foolish beyond redemption and understood what his brother meant.
A monthter, once the Nan Family bes affiliated with the Qin Family, their status will soar.
If the Nan Family takes out Ye Huan, even if Ye Qiqing is furious, the Ye Family will dissuade her from seeking revenge on the Nan Family!
Because Ye Huan is merely Ye Qiqing''s beloved, not truly the son-inw of the Ye Family.
And by that time, the Nan Family''s backing will be the Qin Family!
If the Ye Family is not foolish, they won''t bother the Nan Family.
Even if they are truly foolish!
They would have to consider whether they are up to it!
Confronting the Dragon Gate''s Qin Family, the Ye Family is courting death!
In his heart, Nan Zhenughed uncontrobly, already imagining the miserable death Ye Huan would face...
Chapter 513 - 502: This marriage is probably reinstated...
Beside him, Su Zhiqiang''s face was also filled with intense excitement.
After the alliance between the Nan Family and the Qin Family, they wouldn''t instantly be super-families like the Ye and Li families, but ascending to the only top-tier family was absolutely no problem!
As long as he clings to the Nan Family, basking in their glory, Su Zhiqiang would break into the Capital City''s elite circle, and his status would rise rapidly, with a future of boundless brightness!
For a moment, Su Zhiqiang even felt "grateful" to Ye Huan.
At the BBQ stall, Su Zhiqiang believed he was doomed, but who knew that Ye Huan, after answering a phone call, just left, forgetting him there!
Because of this, he survived and gained the opportunity to ascend alongside the Nan Family.
While "thanking" Ye Huan, he also mourned for Ye Huan.
In just a month, this guy would meet his end in the Nine Netherworlds.
Su Zhiqiang calcted in his mind that since Ye Huan was destined to die, he should at least die more valuably.
For instance... bing a stepping stone for Su Zhiqiang''s rise to the elite circle in the Capital City!
If he could im more credit for eliminating Ye Huan, he could gain more friendship from Nan Zhen and Nan Rui, and then he could reap countless benefits!
An excited look shed in Su Zhiqiang''s eyes, then he cleared his throat and said seriously, "Brother Zhen, Master Nan, I know a lot about Ye Huan. If there''s anything I can help with, just give the word. I''d go through hell or high water."
Nan Rui gave him a nce and said coldly, "Gather all the information and materials on Ye Huan and bring them to me, as detailed as possible."
"Sure, sure, I''ll get on it as soon as possible."
Su Zhiqiang nodded and bowed, smiling obsequiously.
As he spoke, the phone rang.
He smiled sheepishly, then left the hospital room with his phone.
As soon as he answered the call, his face changed dramatically.
"What, Zhiwen is dead!?"
...
Warm sunlight filtered through the curtains, streaming into the second-floor bedroom of Vi S-01 at the Peni Lakefront.
A few finches perched by the window, their singing pleasant yet somewhat "disturbing".
Ye Huan was sleeping soundly, but the chattering of the birds slightly annoyed him. He flipped theforter over his head and rolled over to continue sleeping.
However...
His closed eyes had a hint of confusion.
Why does it smell so nice?
After twitching his nose twice and catching a familiar, gentle fragrance, Ye Huan''s expression changed dramatically!
He hadpletely forgotten it was Liu Tianyun''s bed!
Could it be...
Ye Huan opened his eyes, his body suddenly stiffening.
He was nearly face-to-face with Liu Tianyun, whose face was so red it could drip blood!
He really had slept in Liu Tianyun''s bed all night!
At least he wasn''t beheaded!
Ye Huan took a moment to feel himself and let out a sigh of relief.
"Good morning." Beside him, Liu Tianyun''s face was slightly flushed.
"Good... good morning."
"..."
Both of them were too embarrassed to speak.
Liu Tianyun sat up, leaning against the headboard while ying with her phone, her heart pounding "thump, thump".
Aftering to her senses, she recalled the shameful things she had said under the influence of alcoholst night and wished she could find a hole to hide in.
She was too boldst night!
"Ding."
"Ding."
"Ding."
Listening to the WeChat notification sounds beside him, Ye Huan was a bit annoyed. Casually sitting up while pretending to y on his phone, his peripheral vision constantly nced at Liu Tianyun''s hands.
Unfortunately, if he didn''t get closer, he couldn''t see!
But he was certain she was chatting on WeChat.
Ye Huan was inexplicably irritated, wondering if she was chatting with that gossiping aunt''s son.
Clearing his throat, he pretended nothing was wrong and said, "Hey, Liu Tianyun."
"Hmm... what is it?" Liu Tianyun''s voice was a little soft, with a hint of shyness.
"Oh, I think you should open your eyes a little wider."
"Even if you don''t want to remarry me, you don''t have to find just any riffraff..."
Before she even finished speaking, Liu Tianyun nced at him, "What are you talking about? Who doesn''t want to remarry you?"
"Then why did you..." Ye Huan''s cheeks flushed with embarrassment, unable to finish the sentence. It was too humiliating.
Liu Tianyun was momentarily stunned, as if she thought of something, her face showing a hint of amusement.
She scooted a bit to the left, snuggled into Ye Huan''s arm, and teasingly asked, "Jealous?"
"Jealous of you? Am I crazy?" Ye Huan vehemently denied, his voice involuntarily louder, sounding quite unnatural.
"Not jealous? Then what did you mean by what you just said?"
"Oh, I saw a news article on my phone about a woman who, after divorcing her husband, sought a new rtionship and became reckless, which led to a big loss."
"Dear Mr. Ye Huan, as your wife, I must remind you that your phone is upside down," Liu Tianyun yfully remarked, a stunning curve forming at the corner of her lips.
Ye Huan''s mouth twitched.
He took a closer look.
Oh, great, it was actually upside down!
His eyes darted about, feeling quite guilty!
"Honestly, did you think I was chatting with that auntie''s son and got jealous?" Liu Tianyun snorted, then reached out with her jade hand to hold Ye Huan''s chin, forcing him to look into her eyes.
"Liu Tianyun, since yesterday, how did your imagination get so wild?" Ye Huan retorted stubbornly, but his reddened face betrayed him.
Saying one thing and meaning another!
Liu Tianyun just loved seeing him act "jealous" because it proved that she meant something to Ye Huan.
"Let me tell you, you''re the only man in my WeChat," Liu Tianyun smirked, showing him the phone screen, "I''m chatting with Qin Ya, see?"
"I don''t want to see it, take it away, take it away." Ye Huan waved his hand, didn''t look at all, and the anger in his heart disappeared.
Liu Tianyun''s smile widened, clearly enjoying Ye Huan''s reaction.
"Really not going to look?" Liu Tianyun yfully asked again.
"Nope, not interested, take it away." With that, Ye Huan turned his head away.
"Actually, it''s nothing much. Qin Ya just asked if I was okayst night. I didn''t see it, so I just replied to her, and said I was going to the hospital to see herter."
With that, Liu Tianyun scooted a bit more to the left, leaned her face against Ye Huan''s neck, eyes full of tenderness, "Ye Huan, don''t think of me as a casual woman. I''ve always been pure-hearted and clean-bodied, only belonging to you. As for chatting with that auntie''s son, I actually lied to you, and I''m confessing now..."
She confessed it all, from immediately tossing the auntie''s son''s contact and photo into the trash after leaving the civil affairs bureau, to pretending to chat on WeChat on the way back to Celestial Sea, but not actually chatting.
The more Ye Huan listened, the more ck lines appeared on his face.
To think that Brother Huan, who dominated the Dark World for over seven years, so mighty, was fooled by a woman, leaving him upset for half a day!
Damn it!
"And that phone call I made after you dropped me at S-01 and left..." Liu Tianyun blinked herrge, Kakizn-branded eyes, adding, "It was fake too. I didn''t actually dial, just did it to upset you."
Ye Huan clutched his stomach, almost spitting out old blood.
So that call that bothered him for an afternoon and night was to the "void"?
Ridiculous.
"Anything else you''d like to confess?" Ye Huan grumbled.
"No, just those things."
"Said it was to upset you, but really, I just like seeing your jealous reaction."
"Mwah."
After saying that, Liu Tianyun lightly pecked a beautiful lip mark on Ye Huan''s face like a dragonfly skimming the water.
In a moment...
Both of them were stunned!
Stunned again!
Especially Liu Tianyun!
This kiss was so impulsive!
After the kiss, realizing she did something so daring, Liu Tianyun felt her body temperature rise rapidly, even her nose was steaming. She blushed fiercely, staring at the bedding, not daring to look at Ye Huan.
Ye Huan fared a bit better, but his expression was also quite odd, clearly not expecting to be "ambushed."
"..."
After about ten minutes of silence, he looked at the shy woman in his arms and softly said, "Get up, let''s go see Qin Ya."
"Hmm..."
Liu Tianyun blushingly responded, and like a steam-powered doll, got up, covered her face, and ran to the bathroom to wash up.
Ye Huan, holding the side of his face that was kissed, just felt his whole body go weak.
This cold beauty acting coy is really unbeatable...
For a moment, he even wondered if he had osteoporosis...
And looking at Liu Tianyun''s stance.
It seems like this marriage is going to be back on track...
Chapter 514 - 503: Xiaoxiaos Canteen
"What, discharged from the hospital?"
Celestial Sea City, First People''s Hospital, in front of the general ward.
Ye Huan and Liu Tianyun were both a bit puzzled.
"Yes, just... um..." The nurse recalled and said, "About a quarter of an hour ago, an old man who looked very strange, with white hair coiled on his head and a long white beard, helped her with the discharge procedures and then took her away."
"Okay, we got it, thank you." Ye Huan thanked her and left with Liu Tianyun.
After leaving the hospital, Ye Huan said, "Call Qin Ya and ask what''s going on."
"Okay." Liu Tianyun nodded, took out her phone from her bag, and dialed a number.
No answer...
She called three times, but no one answered any of them.
"Strange, no one''s answering..."
Liu Tianyun muttered, then looked worried, "Could something have happened?"
"Probably not, who would dare mess with the Celestial Sea City''s police chief''s daughter?"
Ye Huan said, taking out his phone and giving Qin Guangming a call.
The call was quickly answered.
"Transferred to the Capital City for treatment?"
"Very busy? Okay, Uncle Qin, you go ahead, I won''t bother you."
With a smile, Ye Huan said after hanging up the call.
He could hear the worry in Qin Guangming''s voice but didn''t ask further; he hadn''t be a busybody yet, feeling the need to ask about everything.
"How was it?" Liu Tianyun blinked beside him.
"Uncle Qin said Qin Ya has been transferred to the Capital City hospital for treatment. No need to worry, nothing else." Ye Huan tucked the phone back in his pocket, started heading towards the BMW Mini, and asked, "Where to now?"
Liu Tianyun said nothing, a sly look shing in her eyes.
Ye Huan was about to open the car door when Liu Tianyun grabbed his wrist.
For some reason, a blush appeared on Liu Tianyun''s face, "I''ll drive, you take the passenger seat."
"Why?" Ye Huan asked, puzzled.
"Don''t ask, just go to the passenger seat, quick, quick, quick."
...
Coming out of the civil affairs bureau, Liu Tianyun hugged the marriage certificate, leaning affectionately into Ye Huan''s arms.
"Divorced just yesterday, remarried today."
"Isn''t this a bit over the top?"
Looking at the little red booklet in his hand, Ye Huan was speechless.
"Over the top or not, who cares."
"But you know, they say you gotta break to establish anew, and before we were in an arranged marriage, pushed together by others."
"This time, it''s ''freely-in-love'' marriage,pletely different in nature."
"And now, I have the rights to get involved in your private life."
Liu Tianyun nced at Ye Huan, her lips curling mischievously, "Tell me, how many sisters do you n to get me?"
"How about one hundred and eight?" Ye Huan retorted, annoyed.
"As long as you''re sturdy enough, don''t leave me as a widow." Liu Tianyun pulled down her eyelid with a finger, made a funny face, hummed lightly, and skipped towards the BMW Mini.
Acting as a happy young girl, she no longer looked like the ice-cold CEO she was before.
Sturdy enough...
Ye Huan, hands in pockets, couldn''t help but recall the incident with Lilith in the West.
Seven were already like that, with one hundred and eight...
Ye Huan broke into a cold sweat, not daring to imagine any further.
Getting back in the car, buckled the seatbelt.
As he started the engine, Ye Huan said, "Let''s grab breakfast first, then I''ll drop you at thepany, after which I''ve to head back to the Capital City. Lilith returns to the West in a few days, I must ensure her safety these days."
"Alright, stay safe on the road ande home early."
A hint of shyness shed in Liu Tianyun''s eyes, just like in the morning in bed, she gave Ye Huan a light peck on the cheek, then turned her head shyly towards the window.
Ye Huan touched his kissed right cheek, letting out a sigh.
Liu Tianyun''s matters have been settled; he''s stuck with her for life.
But the feelings with other women still need handling.
His trip back to the Capital City was partly to protect Lilith and significantly to handle his feelings with Su Qingqing and others.
The recent concert incident made him realize the ambiguity between him and Su Qingqing shouldn''t continue.
It wasn''t good for him or for them.
But thinking about dealing with it gave him a headache.
Huan Ge is skilled in matters of life and death but handling feelings is entirely a different matter, one he has no experience in whatsoever.
...
Driving into the CBD area of Celestial Sea City, Ye Huan pulled over as he passed a restaurant.
[Xiaoxiao''s Cafeteria]
[Business Hours: Daily 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM (except special circumstances)]
[Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner Avable]
Two rows of flower baskets were ced at the entrance, and the decoration was also very new, obviously a newly opened restaurant.
However, what attracted Brother Huan to stop was actually the name of the shop.
The "Xiaoxiao" in the shop name felt inexplicably familiar to him.
"How about eating here?" Ye Huan asked.
"Okay."
"But... why is this new shop so empty?"
"Strangely, the dirty-looking ce across the street, which doesn''t look appetizing at all, is crowded with people."
Next to him, Liu Tianyun was puzzled.
Upon hearing this, Ye Huan realized that "Xiaoxiao''s Cafeteria" was deserted and very quiet.
The breakfast ce across the street, however, was bustling with peopleing and going.
Logically, it shouldn''t be like this.
"Xiaoxiao''s Cafeteria" was obviously a new establishment, spacious and bright inside, with a very cozy decor.
In contrast, the breakfast ce across the street looked aged, its walls turned ck from years of grease and smoke, the floors filthy with used napkins, disposable chopsticks, and stic bags scattered around, with rats and cockroaches scuttling about.
The shop was a small rectangr space, with an area of at most ten square meters, and cing a few tables made it already quite cramped.
Why was the business of this breakfast ce so much better than "Xiaoxiao''s Cafeteria"? The line stretched over twenty meters.
Could it be a great difference in cooking skills?
Or were the prices too high?
Even so, "Xiaoxiao''s Breakfast Restaurant," as a new store, shouldn''t have not a single customer, right?
It was indeed strange.
At this moment.
"Knock. Knock. Knock."
Ye Huan turned his head and saw a slim man with yellow-dyed hair knocking on the car window.
"What''s up?" Ye Huan slowly rolled down the window and asked calmly.
"It''s like this." The yellow-haired man said, secretly startled after ncing at Liu Tianyun in the passenger seat, what a beautiful woman.
A woman can say a lot about a man.
Usually, impressive men have high-quality women by their side.
This dude''s woman is so beautiful, he must not be ordinary.
Plus this car.
Given the current market, this BMW Mini wouldn''t be less than 1.2 million.
This guy is either a sessful person or a wealthy second-generation elite, anyway, he''s very rich.
If I could hook him... the rewards would be plenty!
The yellow-haired man analyzed in his heart, secretly delighted.
Retracting his gaze, he cleared his throat and said, "Hello sir, I''m here specifically to remind you."
"Remind?" Ye Huan frowned.
"Oh, it''s like this."
"This ''Xiaoxiao''s Cafeteria'' tricks customers, using extremely poor quality, almost expired ingredients."
"Don''t be fooled by the exquisite decoration, it''s just a facade."
"I ate here once before, and guess what, I got food poisoning, had to go to the hospital twice for stomach pumping, and nearly lost my life!"
"When I recovered, I went back for an exnation, but they used me of defrauding them. Suspecting their kitchen''s cleanliness due to my poisoning, I rushed in when they weren''t paying attention."
"The kitchen of this ce is absolutely filthy. Rats and cockroaches scurry about, spider webs fill the corners, flies buzz around, and they wash vegetables with ck water."
"I originally took photos for evidence, nning to sue them, but it turns out the shop owner has ck Society connections. They deleted all my photos and even had me beaten up."
"I saw your distinguished status and precious health, and feared you''d get poisoned and die from eating dirty food here, so I risked being beaten to death by the ck Society to warn you."
The yellow-haired man said this with a vignt look, ncing around as if really afraid of a sudden attack by the "ck Society."
Two secondster, he changed his tone, pretending nothing was wrong, "But I''ve heard the breakfast ce across the street is actually pretty good. It looks dirty, but the taste is exceptional. Once you go, you want to go a second time, and then countless times after..."
At this point, the yellow-haired man''s mouth curled into a barely noticeable crooked smile.
"Well, thank you then." Ye Huan''s mouth turned up slightly.
"Haha, no need to thank me, just doing a casual act." The yellow-haired manughed heartily.
"Let''s get out."
Ye Huan turned off the car and said to Liu Tianyun.
The two opened the car doors and got out together.
"Sir, I wish you both a pleasant meal." Saying so, a sly smile of sess shed in the yellow-haired man''s eyes.
The next second, his expression changed.
"Stop!"
Chapter 515 - 504 Tang Xiaoxiao
"Something up?" Ye Huan turned his head to face the blond-haired man.
The blond-haired man looked pained, "I''ve warned you guys like that, why do you still go to that shop?"
"You warned us, but whether we listen or not is our business."
"I insist on eating at ''Xiaoxiao''s Canteen,'' is that not okay?"
Ye Huan shouted.
"You..." The blond was exasperated but held back fromshing out.
With a pained expression, he gritted his teeth, pulled out five red bills from his pocket, and stuffed them into Ye Huan''s hand, "Take this money and go eat at the shop across the street, just consider it my treat."
"Such a good thing?" Ye Huan feigned surprise.
"Hurry over there." The blond-haired man waved his hand, a glint of coldness shing in his eyes.
Now take the money, right? In time, you''ll have to spew back dozens to hundreds of times what you took!
"Stop babbling endlessly here." Ye Huan suddenly sneered, throwing the bills back at the blond''s face, "I''m telling you, I don''t need your five hundred bucks. Moreover, I''m just going to eat at this shop today."
The blond-haired man was first stunned, then his face turned grim.
His task was to camp around "Xiaoxiao''s Canteen," intercept anyone wanting to dine, and through a series of shocking speeches, guide customers to the opposite restaurant.
If that failed, he''d pull out assignment funds, five hundred bucks.
Customers seeing the money, no matter what other thoughts they had, would gleefully ept it and head to dine at the opposite restaurant.
After all, a meal at this fast-food ce costs at most a few dozen bucks, tops thirty or so.
Taking this five hundred would not only get a free meal but also make over four hundred bucks. Even a fool would know which to choose.
But they weren''t money-squandering youths. Given out these five hundred bucks, they were sure they could get the recipient to return several times, even hundreds of times that five hundred...
But if there truly were ''idiots'' stubbornly visiting "Xiaoxiao''s Canteen," he''d surely face criticism from the boss...
"Kid, are you sure you want to eat at this shop?" The blond sneered, voice cold.
Ye Huan chuckled softly, "Why, my legs are on me, can you also control where I eat?"
"Now they''re on you, but once you finish eating inside, that''s another story..." The blond''s words carried a thick thread of menace.
Ye Huan''s eyes turned icy, "I''ll warn you once, I''m someone who... really hates being threatened."
With that, he led Liu Tianyun into the restaurant.
"Really begging for a beating, utterly clueless." The blond cursed inwardly, but his face turned pale, with the hair at the back standing upright.
Moments ago, he felt a chill rush from his feet up to his head.
Illusion...
Surely an illusion!
This kid looks like nothing, there''s no way I could be scared by him!
Steadying himself, the blond cursed Ye Huan a few more times internally, then jogged over to the restaurant across the street.
...
"Daddy, Mommy, Sis, we have customers!"
Just stepping into "Xiaoxiao''s Canteen," Ye Huan immediately understood why the word "Xiaoxiao" felt familiar to him.
The five-year-old girl with big eyes, was someone he''d seen before, Tang Yao''s sisterTang Xiaoxiao.
"Hey, you''re the big brother from that time." After shouting to the back, Tang Xiaoxiao sucked on her fingers and recognized Ye Huan.
Her eyes nced at Liu Tianyun, and she eximed, "Big brother, your new love is so pretty!"
Ye Huan stumbled, almost tripping headlong to the floor.
Liu Tianyun''s face flushed crimson.
New love?
Even little girls these days know the term ''new love''!?
Wait...
If she''s saying I''m a new love, doesn''t that mean this little girl has seen Ye Huan''s ''old love''?
The next second, Liu Tianyun froze.
Tang Yao!?
"Here theye."
A voice called out from the kitchen.
Hearing customers, Tang Yao, with a ponytail and wearing an apron, hurriedly wiped her hands on her apron, grabbed a menu, and rushed out from the kitchen.
"President Liu!?"
"And... you?"
Speaking, Tang Yao was a bit surprised at Liu Tianyun''s presence, but upon seeing Ye Huan, her face soured.
"Secretary Tang, what''s with the ''you'', I have a name, okay?" Ye Huan snapped irritably.
Beside him, Liu Tianyun''s gaze was a bit strange.
She was only startled for a moment before calming down.
Indeed, at the concert, Tang Yao was there and had shown anger towards Ye Huan.
Truly impressive.
The former Head of Sales of Tianyun International, Su Qingqing, the current secretary to the president Tang Yao, and the current deputy head of sales Zhang Huimin, these three women are all beautiful andpetent, no pushovers, yet each has been captivated by Ye Huan.
While sighing inwardly, Liu Tianyun also felt proud of her man''s excellence.
If Ye Huan weren''t outstanding, how could he win over the hearts of these women and captivate these ''no pushovers'' thoroughly?
"Why are you here?" Tang Yao asked Ye Huan, hostility in her tone.
She had formed a deep friendship with Zhang Huimin and naturally felt indignant about Ye Huan ''cheating'' her sister.
"To eat, what else?" Ye Huan responded irritably.
About to sit, he was stopped by Tang Yao''s raised slender, beautiful leg.
Ye Huan couldn''t help but nce down.
Tang Yao was wearing a uniform OL outfit under her apron, her beautiful legs wrapped in ck stockings, perfectly outlining the shape of her legs.
Ye Huan was a bit surprised; he hadn''t noticed this before.
At this nce, although Tang Yao''s figure was petite, her height was at most 1.55 meters, yet her legs were long, giving her a perfectly proportioned figure!
Also...
The apronbined with ck stockings, it really had a unique vor...
"Sorry, this store does not wee you." Tang Yao said coldly.
Several secondster, seeing that Ye Huan still hadn''t responded, she noticed Ye Huan''s gaze kept ncing at her extended leg, quite dishonestly!
"What are you looking at!" Tang Yao eximed in embarrassment and anger, quickly retracting her leg.
"Nothing much." Ye Huan seized the opportunity to take a seat.
Noticing Liu Tianyun looking at him with a strange expression, he felt a bit awkward and nced out the ss window.
No matter what, Liu Tianyun was his wife, and he had just ogled another woman''s legs in front of his wife...
It was indeed a bit disgraceful!
"President, here''s the menu."
"For breakfast, the selection is rtively limited,"
"But I assure you, everything my mom makes is delicious."
Tang Yao red angrily at Ye Huan and then ced the menu in front of Liu Tianyun.
"Is this your family''s shop? Is it newly opened?" Liu Tianyun retracted her gaze from Ye Huan and asked Tang Yao with some curiosity.
"Yes, it''s been open for half a month now." Tang Yao nodded.
"How''s business..."
Liu Tianyun was just being polite, but as soon as she asked, she noticed a look of worry sh between Tang Yao''s brows, and immediately regretted asking more.
Was there even a need to ask?
Aside from the two of them, there wasn''t a single customer in the store.
"I''m sorry." Liu Tianyun said apologetically.
Tang Yao sighed helplessly, "It''s nothing, President, please just order."
"What about me? Aren''t you going to give me a menu?" Ye Huan shouted from the side.
"I said the store doesn''t wee you, there''s nothing for you to eat!" Tang Yao said, annoyed and embarrassed.
"How can you run a business like this, talking to customers that way? Do you know the customer is king..."
"I hereby announce, you''ve been permanently cklisted from ''Xiaoxiao''s Canteen.''" Tang Yao interrupted Ye Huan, making the corner of his mouth twitch.
Retaliation, this is absolutely retaliation.
Just because I nced at your legs twice, is it really necessary!
"Sis, could it be that you''re being so harsh on him because you''re jealous that he abandoned you for a new love?"
The restaurant''s seating wasn''t chairs but a rectangr sofa.
Tang Xiaoxiao took advantage of her petite stature and crawled through the space under the table to sit beside Liu Tianyun.
At the same time, she blinked her big eyes at her sister Tang Yao.
Hearing this, Tang Yao''s face instantly turned so red that it could drip blood. She grabbed Tang Xiaoxiao''s ear, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Ye Huan almost crashed headfirst into the table.
Even five-year-old girls nowadays know so much about romance?
"It hurts, it hurts, sis please let go." Tang Xiaoxiao gasped, pleading pitiably.
"Let''s see if you dare talk nonsense again!" Tang Yao let go, embarrassed and annoyed.
Just then, Liu Tianyun finished ordering and handed back the menu.
Tang Yao didn''t dare look at Liu Tianyun. She took the menu with a flushed face and ran away.
After entering the kitchen, she took a look at the menu.
All the dishes ordered were in two portions, apparently one for Ye Huan.
Tang Yao frowned slightly.
Recalling the various unusual reactions Liu Tianyun had at the concert event, Tang Yao had long suspected that this ice queen CEO had genuine feelings for Ye Huan.
Seeing this now, it''s probably true.
She knew well how much Liu Tianyun resisted and was dissatisfied when she initially entered into the contractual marriage with Ye Huan.
If she were still like that, it''s impossible for her to order food for Ye Huan.
Thinking of this, Tang Yao cursed Ye Huan a few more times in her heart.
Having such a beautiful wife like Liu Tianyun, yet still fooling around outside!
And always with good women!
Especially Zhang Huimin.
After the concert incident, Tang Yao gained a deeper understanding of Zhang Huimin; she repeatedly advised Zhang Huimin to have a showdown with Ye Huan, to make him choose among all these women.
Zhang Huimin''s response was always: "Isn''t this forcing Xiao Ye? He would be in a bind, absolutely not. As long as he doesn''t forget me, I don''t need a status, I''m fine being his secret lover!"
Tang Yao was heartbroken back then!
s, such a wonderful woman like Zhang Jie, why did she fall for a scoundrel like Ye Huan?
Zhang Huimin could silently give so much for Ye Huan!
And Ye Huan?
Hiding it from her, going to concerts and on dates with other women!
The number of women he''s involved with is more than can be counted on one hand.
It''s simply outrageous how much of a scumbag he is.
Thinking this, Tang Yao had already, in her mind, dismembered Ye Huan a thousand times.
Chapter 516 - 505: Cant Continue the Business?
"Sister, you''re as beautiful as a fairy."
"If only Xiaoxiao could grow up to be as beautiful as you."
"You''re so pretty, no wonder big brother abandoned my sister to have you as his new favorite."
Tang Xiaoxiao propped her chin with her hands and yfully blinked.
"Xiaoxiao, when you grow up, you''ll definitely be even prettier than your sister." Liu Tianyun said with a smile, pinching Tang Xiaoxiao''s rosy cheeks, though she was a bit embarrassed; this little girl''s thoughts were mature beyond her years.
Besides embarrassment, there was a bit of indignation.
She was the original partner, not some new favorite!
But she didn''t bother to argue with a child.
"Xiaoxiao, are the dishes in your shop expensive?" Nearby, Ye Huan suddenly asked.
"Not expensive, our shop is very cost-effective." Tang Xiaoxiao replied.
Ye Huan looked at Liu Tianyun, saw her nodding, and pursued further, "Then why is there no business at your ce?"
"It''s because of that bad uncle across the street."
Saying this, Tang Xiaoxiao puffed her cheeks in anger and pointed outside the window, toward the restaurant opposite them, where a man like a door guardian sat at the entrance, wearing a white vest, with crossed chubby legs, feet in flip-flops, smoking a cigarette, with a face full of fierceness.
Gangster!
Ye Huan followed her direction with his gaze.
At that time, a man with blonde hair was next to the middle-aged man.
The blonde seemed to be reporting something to the middle-aged man.
The more he listened, the angrier the middle-aged man''s face became.
After retracting his gaze, Ye Huan thought for a moment and understood the cause of the situation.
"Xiaoxiao''s Canteen" had no customers, not because the environment was poor or the meal prices were too high.
On the contrary, "Xiaoxiao''s Canteen," with its cozy, spacious, and bright decor, had prices that could be considered affordable, even cheap,pared to other dining ces in the CBD area.
There were no customers clearly because the restaurant across the street was up to no good.
Indeed, the actions of the blonde man amounted to mischief.
He stationed himself not far from "Xiaoxiao''s Canteen," stopping all potential customers from entering and ndering "Xiaoxiao''s Canteen" in conversations, trying to lure customers to the other restaurant.
If customers insisted on entering, the blonde man would use a "trump card," directly throwing out five hundred bucks to "invite" them to eat.
For the customers, it was like a windfall!
Five hundred bucks left them with over four hundred in surplus after a meal, more than a day''s wages for many.
How could customers resist such temptation? They would all happily pocket the money and head to the opposite restaurant.
But Ye Huan knew, these gangsters were risking their lives, earning money by licking blood off the knife''s edge, so they valued money above all, and wouldn''t just give it away for free.
Giving away five hundred could only mean they had other ways to earn it back multiple times over.
"Xiaoxiao, big brother has a question for you."
"Is that bad uncle across the street the owner of that restaurant?"
Ye Huan temporarily withdrew his thoughts, smiling as he asked.
Tang Xiaoxiao sucked her fingers and thought for a moment before nodding, "That bad uncle seems to have acquired that restaurant, but the chef there is still the former manager."
Upon hearing this, Ye Huan couldn''t help but frown, "When did they acquire it?"
"Half a month ago."
"The day after we opened, they bought it."
Tang Yao came over holding two metal trays, her face looking upset as she spoke.
After saying that, she ced the two metal trays on the table, thoughtfully cing one in front of Liu Tianyun.
A te of vegetable shredded pork noodles, two meat buns, and a cup of soybean milk.
As for Ye Huan...
She pushed the tray towards him and left it at that.
With such force that the noodle soup and soybean milk sshed a few drops.
Ye Huan was about to open his mouth to argue with her.
Tang Yao interrupted, snapping, "If you don''t want to eat, then don''t..."
Before she finished speaking, a voice of rebuke came from the kitchen.
"Yao Yao, how can you treat guests like this?" Tang Dongqiang and his wife emerged from the kitchen, reprimanding Tang Yao.
Tang Yao let out a cold snort and turned her head away.
The Tang Dongqiang couple was about to reprimand her again when Ye Huan intervened with a smile, "Uncle and Auntie, it''s fine, I like eating from the tray."
"Tch, pretending to be a nice guy, scumbag." Tang Yao muttered under her breath, thinking Ye Huan was just sweet-talking his way into the hearts of women like Zhang Huimin.
Now he was using this tactic on her, but she wasn''t so easily fooled.
Though she spoke softly, in the sparsely-popted shop, everyone heard it clearly.
What a joke.
Even if Ye Huan was helping the Tang Family with the aim of winning "Tang Yao''s affection," he was still a great benefactor to them!
Moreover, this benefactor likely had a powerful background and identity that the Tang Family couldn''t afford to offend. Angering him would be unwise.
Hu Ping Tong knew she couldn''t persuade her daughter otherwise, so she apologized, "Mr. Ye, my daughter''s temper is quite bad, I''m really sorry."
It was clear that the couple still believed Ye Huan''s earlier assistance to the Tang Family was motivated by his attraction to Tang Yao.
If Brother Huan knew they thought like this, he might just die coughing up blood.
Ye Huan smiled and said:
"Auntie, it''s alright, I don''t mind at all."
"But you guys..."
At this point, Ye Huan changed the subject and asked, "What exactly is going on with this shop?"
"..."
This question made the Tang Family''s brows furrow with a tint of deep sorrow and anger, and they remained silent for a long time.
Finally, it was Tang Yao who spoke up.
"This store can''t continue. We''re nning to close it in a while."
Chapter 517 - 506: 关才板
"Is it because of that restaurant across the street?" Ye Huan pursued the question.
Tang Yao nodded, "Yes, it''s because of them."
"Have you had any conflicts with them before?"
Ye Huan asked this because Tang Yao had previously mentioned that the gangster came the day after ''Xiaoxiao''s Canteen'' opened to take over the restaurant across the street.
This was obviously targeted.
"No, we don''t know them at all, it''s impossible to have any conflicts." Tang Yao''s voice suddenly grew angry, his eyes fierce: "On our first day of opening, we were so busy, from nine in the morning until ten at night, we were packed. By eleven when we closed, most of the customers had left. All the customers had great things to say about us, saying the food was delicious and cheap, and they wanted us to reserve tables for them the next day."
"But the next day, the boss of that group across the street, that so-called ''door god''Guan Caiban took over the restaurant across the street and started ying dirty tricks on us."
"They sent a bunch of people to smear our restaurant''s reputation, even offering customers five hundred bucks to eat at the restaurant across the street."
"Most of the customers were drawn over, and only a few ''fans'' refused their money and came in to eat."
"But after eating, they left the restaurant only to be ambushed by thugs and had their legs broken. When this news spread in the CBD area the next day, everyone was saying our restaurant had offended some big shot, and anyone who dared to eat here would have their legs broken by this person. Thispletely scared everyone away froming to our restaurant."
"Only those who were not in the know would stille in our direction, but they would eventually be persuaded to go across the street."
No conflict?
Ye Huan frowned.
Impossible, if there were no conflict, the people across the street wouldn''t go to such extremes.
The dirty tricks used by the people across the street were more or less what Ye Huan had guessed.
And
Guan Caiban?
Why does this name sound so familiar?
Ye Huan thought for a while with no result.
Ye Huan stopped thinking about it and continued to ask, "Did you try tomunicate with this Guan Caiban?"
"We did, but they said they wouldn''t stop until our business couldn''t continue and we were forced to close down."
"Later, we were so furious that we called the police."
"But it only constituted unfairpetition, so the police just gave Guan Caiban a verbal warning and ordered him to apologize to us."
"At the time, Guan Caiban seemed genuinely remorseful. We thought he had a change of heart, realized his mistakes, epted a private settlement, and took some financialpensation, so the police didn''t pursue the matter further."
"Who knew, not only did they not change their ways, but they intensified their actions. Apart from openly affecting our business, they also secretly retaliated against us, impacting our normal life."
"Either while we were sleeping at night, the front door would be kicked in; or whening home from work, we''d find the front door dismantled, the floors covered with dead chickens and ducks, and the walls and bed stained with their blood."
"The scariest time was when Xiaoxiao was followed on her way home from school. If she hadn''t been clever enough to lose the person tailing her and escape, she might have been kidnapped by now."
"This incident terrified our whole family, and even now, we''re too scared to let Xiaoxiao go to school."
Tang Yao recalled this, his face turning pale, and he instinctively held onto Tang Xiaoxiao''s hand.
Tang Dongqiang and his wife also showed signs of fear.
These methods were excessively vicious and ruthless.
A cold gleam shed in Ye Huan''s eyes as he said, "Keep talking."
"Afterwards, we called the police again."
"We could almost be 100% sure that these were all orchestrated by Guan Caiban''s people, but the police needed to investigate and collect evidence, and they needed proof to arrest someone."
"There was no evidence linking Guan Caiban to these criminal activities, so the police only questioned him and didn''t take further action against him."
"We are at our wits'' end now, and losing money is the least of our concerns; we''re most afraid of Xiaoxiao experiencing danger again."
"So we are nning to"
"Give them what they want, announce our closure and leave in the next couple of days."
Saying this, Tang Yao sighed helplessly.
Tang Dongqiang and his wife looked utterly despaired.
They chose the location in the CBD area precisely because of the high foot traffic and spending power.
The first day''s turnover of 250,000 proved that their choice was right.
As long as the business was well-managed, they wouldn''t say they''d be rich, but the family''s food, clothing, and housing needs wouldn''t be a concern, and they might even improve their living standards.
Who would have thought Guan Caiban would suddenly appear, breaking the rules and using all kinds of dirty tricks to ruin them, leaving them with no recourse?
Now that they''re forced to close the business, their hearts are bleeding.
It''s important to know that just the rent and initial inventory and renovation costs ate up over six million, which was nearly all of Ye Huan''s gambling winnings after paying off debts to rtives.
The closure of this business announced they had no funds or capacity to restart, and life would be extremely tight again.
At this moment,
seeing the despair on Mr. and Mrs. Tang Dongqiang''s faces, Tang Xiaoxiao raised her little fists and said, "Don''t worry, Daddy and Mommy, when I grow up, I''ll learn martial arts and beat that bad uncle so hard he won''t know where his teeth went."
Tang Yao and the Tang Dongqiang couple, who were initially downcast, couldn''t help but smile at Tang Xiaoxiao''s innocent expression and words.
In the next second, azy voice from outside the door caused the Tang Family''s faces to change drastically.
"Little girl."
"Who are you nning to beat so badly they lose their teeth?"
Chapter 518 - 507: Celestial Sea Diviner
The words fell.
The middle-aged man with a face full of flesh, originally sitting at the doorway of the restaurant across the street acting as a door guardian, none other than Guan Caiban, led the fourth number thug-looking follower into the restaurant.
The blonde-haired man who blocked Ye Huan and Liu Tianyun at the restaurant entrance was unexpectedly among them.
Guan Caiban walked into the restaurant, kicked over a table, and then sat down on the sofa next to another dining table where he could see everyone in the restaurant, including Ye Huan.
He raised his fat legs, smoking a Hongta Mountain cigarette, and stared yfully at Tang Xiaoxiao, "Little girl, I''m asking you, who are you going to beat till their teeth are scattered all over the ground?"
Tang Xiaoxiao''s eyes showed some fear, yet she still mustered the courage, shaking her little pink fists twice, "Wait... when I grow up, I''ll... I''ll beat you, you big bad guy, till your teeth are scattered all over the ground!"
"Little brat, tired of living?" the blonde spat, raising his sleeves with a fiercely sinister look, stepping forward.
Tang Xiaoxiao, after all, was a child, and was so scared she shivered on the spot, instinctively burying her head into Liu Tianyun''s embrace, trembling with fear.
The blonde wanted to educate this little brat but upon taking a second step, was waved back by Guan Caiban.
He spat again and then reluctantly retreated behind Guan Caiban.
Little did he know...
If he dared to step forward one more time, he would meet his end in the underworld.
The coldness on Ye Huan''s face didn''t diminish.
"Little girl, nning to hit uncle when you grow up?"
"Then Uncle really has to consider whether to let you live to see that day..."
The words Guan Caiban said, filled with threats and amusement, scared Tang Dongqiang and his wife until their legs went weak, their faces ashen.
Tang Yao was also quite terrified but still summoned courage, angrily saying, "If you dare do such things, I''ll call the police to arrest you, and let you rot in jail!"
"Ha? Did I say I was going to do anything?" Guan Caiban looked "confused" and then smirked, saying, "I''m just reminding you to watch your little daughter closely. Don''t let her get kidnapped and killed by someone unrted to me if you''re not careful."
After speaking, he exhaled a smoke ring, his face filled with a rich yful expression.
The hint in these words was very clear.
The Tang Family became somewhat desperate.
Yes, if Guan Caiban secretly ordered someone to kill Tang Xiaoxiao, they really had no way to handle it.
As long as the perpetrator fled quickly after the crime, just like those who previously harassed them, the police could never convict Guan Caiban.
"What... what do you really want."
"Can''t we just admit defeat?"
Tang Yao took a deep breath, and with a slightly pleading tone, gritted her teeth, "As long as you promise not to disrupt our family''s life and not to harm Xiaoxiao, we''re willing to close the store..."
"I didn''te here to discuss this with you."
"You have no grounds to negotiate with me."
Guan Caiban let out a coldugh, then extinguished his cigarette.
The next second, his tone suddenly became irritable, addressing Ye Huan, "Kid, who allowed you to eat here?"
"My mouth is on my face, my legs are on my body, where I eat is my own business."
"But you, why don''t you drive your taxi and instead engage in criminal activities?"
Ye Huan said yfully.
Hearing the name "Guan Caiban," he felt it sounded familiar.
Seeing Guan Caiban''s appearance up close, he realized why the name felt familiar.
This middle-aged man with a face full of flesh was the driver of the taxi he called that day after dealing with Xie Guangkun and his son, when he and Tang Yao went to the underground fight club to find Tang Dongqiang.
When paying via WeChat after getting off the vehicle, he''d noticed the driver''s WeChat name "Guan Caiban" was a bit unique, even teasing about it a bit, so it left some impression.
Before, it was too far to see his face clearly.
Now, at a close distance, Ye Huan immediately recognized him.
"Is it you, kid?" Guan Caiban was stunned for a good while beforeing to his senses.
His eyes narrowed slightly, also recalling Ye Huan.
With this, it also exined why this kid insisted on eating at "Xiaoxiao''s Canteen."
This kid had ties with the Tang Family.
Having ties with the Tang Family, there was no need to hold back.
Thinking this through, Guan Caiban''s expression darkened, and he signaled the blonde with his eyes.
The blonde nodded, coldly ncing at Ye Huan who was "ignorant of danger," and then exited the restaurant.
In less than a minute, he came back inside.
Upon returning, there was a smirk of schadenfreude on his face.
At this time, Guan Caiban made a gesture with his fingers, smacked his lips twice, and said yfully:
"Kid, don''t you know I ordered that no one is allowed to do business with this joint?"
"Your insistence on barging in really puts me in a tough spot."
"I, Guan Caiban, have a nickname, called Celestial Sea Seer. When I calcte, I see that your defiance of my ''edict'' bying to eat here and doing business with the Tang Family will soon bring retribution."
The moment these words fell.
"Bang!"
"ng!"
"Snap!"
"Ungh!"
"Crack!"
Outside the restaurant, a series of chaotic noises erupted.
Everyone followed the source of the noise with their gazes.
More than a dozen thugs, wielding sticks, were smashing a BMW Mini to pieces.
Within less than half a minute, the once fairly new BMW Mini was beaten beyond recognition and left in tatters.
After finishing their destruction, the group of thugs scrambled to flee one by one.
"Oh my, would you look at that."
"Howe my prediction is so urate?"
"You''re really getting retribution?"
Chapter 519 - 508: Ive seen people courting death, but never to this extent before...
Guan Caiban was "stunned," looking out the window with a face full of "incredulity."
The fourckeys behind him, including Blondie, all sneered a few times.
Liu Tianyun''s face was as cold as ice.
The faces of the Tang family members also turned very grim.
As for Ye Huan...
He remained expressionless and said calmly, "Buddy, inciting crime is also illegal, aren''t you afraid of getting thrown inside?"
"Incite? Did I incite someone tomit a crime?" Guan Caiban looked at his fourckeys, his face filled with "puzzlement."
The fourckeys looked at each other in confusion and said with faces full of "bewilderment," "Boss, we don''t know anything. We''ve always beenw-abiding, and you never told us tomit any crimes."
"Listen to me, I didn''t incite anything here, so don''t pin this crap on me. Your car getting smashed is just karma, understand?"
"Those people probably saw youe here to eat and disliked you, along with your car, so they smashed it."
"I think you should swallow your pride, leave quickly, and never associate with this gue God family again, got it?"
Without thinking, it was clear who Guan Caiban was calling a gue God.
"You''re going too far!" Tang Yao red angrily, wanting to confront Guan Caiban, but was stopped by Ye Huan.
"A BMW Mini has a market price of 1.2 million."
"The person who smashed this car would get at least ten years inside."
"As the inciter, you''re looking at a starting point of twenty years, going up to life."
"If you call your people back now andpensate me tenfold, I might consider asking the police to be lenient with you."
Beside him, Ye Huan smacked his lips twice and said these words with a smile.
"..."
After a moment of silence.
"Ha ha!"
The fourckeys behind Guan Caiban burst intoughter, tears streaming down their faces!
He himself looked highly sarcastic.
This kid''s car got smashed and he was heartbroken to the point of going mad?
Was he actually threatening Guan Caiban?
He must be out of his mind.
"Boy, I really hate being threatened."
"Your threat really puts me in a bad mood."
"Here''s the deal, I''ll give you one minute to reorganize your words."
"If you kneel down and apologize to me, and promise never to associate with these gue Gods of the Tang family again, I don''t mind sparing your life..."
"Oh right." Ye Huan suddenly spoke up, interrupting Guan Caiban, "I almost forgot, you still want to ruin the Tang family, which really puts me in a difficult position..."
Ye Huan smacked his lips again and "sighed," saying, "Since you want to ruin the Tang family, smashed my car, and even threatened me. Not only am I a victim, but I''m also a friend of Tang Yao, and I happen to really hate being threatened, letting you go doesn''t seem right, so I''ll have to ruin you..."
"..."
The whole room fell silent.
Tang Yao was rmed by this.
Having been repeatedly harmed by dirty tricks before, they had investigated some information about Guan Caiban.
Guan Caiban himself was nothing, but hisckeys were hooligans who came from the Capital City half a month ago.
In the Capital City, they belonged to a notorious gang, a gang where everyone was ruthless and had blood on their hands.
It was rumored that a powerful family was backing the gang.
Tang Yao''s face turned anxious as she pulled Ye Huan aside.
She had witnessed Ye Huan''sbat abilities and knew he was formidable one-on-one.
However...
Opposing a gang and a family from the Capital City was extremely risky!
If conflict arose, Ye Huan himself would be in deep trouble.
Not to mention Ye Huan''s parents, even his family, Li Luo, could face retaliation from the gang and the family backing it.
Tang Yao was not aware of Li Luo and Ye Qiqing''s identity and, based on a visit to their ordinary apartment building, thought Ye Huan''s family was just an average household.
An average family couldn''t withstand retaliation from a big family; Li Luo would be in danger.
"Why are you so foolish?"
"They''re not ordinary hooligans, don''t provoke them."
"As for the issues with our family, we''ll ept it, close the shop if needed, but as for your car..."
Tang Yao bit her lip, whispering, "Swallow your pride, those one-point-something million aren''t significant for you two, there''s no need to mess with those desperados."
"Tang Yao, what are you thinking? Do you really think I care about that car? One-point-something million doesn''t mean much to us as a couple; we don''t mind. The main thing is that these bastards really pissed me off, and as your friend, I want to do my best to help you settle this." Ye Huan whispered, patting Tang Yao on the shoulder.
"Who asked for your help? You''re... you''re just sticking your nose into other people''s business like a dog." Tang Yao was deeply moved by his words, but she was also afraid Ye Huan would really provoke Guan Caiban, so she feigned anger, blushing, and scolded him to stay out of it.
She had to admit, while Ye Huan was a yer in rtionships, he was incredibly loyal as a friend.
But she really didn''t want Ye Huan to be loyal this time.
Ye Huan had already helped her and the Tang family a lot.
Even if he resolved the issue with Guan Caiban for the Tang family, he would definitely face retaliation from Guan Caiban''s gang and family, and even his family could be targeted.
This situation would make Tang Yao feel guilty, and she wouldn''t know how to repay this favor.
"Ye Huan, listen to me this time, stop sticking your nose where it doesn''t belong." Tang Yao spoke up again, trying to dissuade Ye Huan.
"Sorry, I''ve got nothing better to do. I''m definitely getting involved in this matter."
Tang Yao was anxious as Ye Huan ignored the advice.
Just about to speak, to persuade him not to confront Guan Caiban, to quickly admit defeat.
But...
"Kid, you''re really full and gutsy."
"Fine, you want to kill me, right? I want to see exactly which one of us can kill the other."
"Let me tell you, you''ve really pissed me off today."
"And one of the reasons you want to kill me is to settle troubles for the Tang Family, right?"
"You''re something, let me tell you, today I''m not only going to kill you but also everyone in the Tang Family!"
Guan Caiban let out a sinisterugh.
Since bing the Gang Leader of the Celestial Sea sub-gang of the "Great Yellow Gang," with dozens of men under him, no one had dared to speak to him like this.
Let alone threaten him, saying they would kill him!
His words full of murderous intent terrified Tang Yao and the Tang Dongqiang couple, their faces as pale as corpses.
For a moment, the Tang Dongqiang couple almost hated Ye Huan.
Why couldn''t this young man heed advice? Why did he have to provoke Guan Caiban? Guan Caiban was a big shot with connections in the Capital City. Was he someone to be casually offended? Was he someone that could be offended!?
If the bigwigs from the Capital City really wanted them dead, even if they escaped to the ends of the earth, the only result would be a miserable death!
Now it''s worse, his recklessness is going to get their whole family killed.
"Thud." The Tang Dongqiang couple copsed to the ground, despair written on their faces.
On the side, Guan Caiban was very satisfied with their reaction, feeling pleased inside.
But that wasn''t enough.
As the Gang Leader of the Celestial Sea sub-gang of the Great Yellow Gang, nning to lead the expansion in Celestial Sea, he felt the need to establish authority and let all of Celestial Sea know he was ruthless and merciless.
"Kid, congrattions, you''ve hit the jackpot."
"I''ve decided not only to kill you but also your whole family."
"Will you voluntarily give your family''s address, or do I have to beat you half to death to force it out of you, hmm?"
Guan Caiban said ruthlessly, shaking his leg nonchntly, with a grinning face.
Give family''s address?
Seen people courting death, but this kind of courting death was a first...
Ye Huan asked mockingly, "Are you sure?"
Guan Caiban sneered, "If you dare, just say it. I''ll let you and your family know the consequences of threatening me."
"Huaxia Special Service Bureau Headquarters."
"Huaxia Eastern Territory Headquarters."
"Huaxia Southern Territory Headquarters."
"Huaxia Western Territory Headquarters."
"Huaxia Northern Territory Headquarters."
"Huaxia Entire Territory Headquarters."
"And..."
Ye Huan rattled off a list of addresses.
At thest address, he called Ye Tiance, asking him to send special service agents downstairs, to wait for some heads to be delivered.
After hanging up, he mentioned thest address.
But the air had already solidified...
The way Guan Caiban and his men looked at Ye Huan was as if they were looking at an idiot.
This kid surely had delusions, otherwise, why would he think the Huaxia Command Headquarters was his own? Definitely a delusional patient!
However... thatst address, a neighborhood outside the second ring of the Capital City, sounded quite credible, probably real.
This kid was just bluffing earlier.
But... no matter how well you bluff, what''s the use without some real strength?
Recalling Ye Huan''s phone call saying, "Find ''a few'' people to guard downstairs, someone''s delivering their heads."
Guan Caiban almostughed out loud.
It''s known that the main base of the Great Yellow Gang is in the Capital City!
Guard downstairs, someone''s delivering heads?
No matter how many people are downstairs, they''re just there to add to the Great Yellow Gang''s reputation!
Besides, daring to give an address to Guan Caiban, this kid really was tired of having his family alive.
Even professional mourners would call him an expert.
Guan Caiban lit a cigarette, shaking his leg and dialed a phone call.
His actions were so cool, but his tone was very respectful.
He quickly conveyed the situation there to the other party.
The other was the Gang Leader of the Great Yellow Gang, a well-known ruthless figure in the Capital CityHui Shoutao.
After understanding the situation, Hui Shoutao replied on the other end of the call:
"Don''t worry, you are a talent favored by the Patriarch."
"You want to establish authority, I will naturally support you wholeheartedly."
"I will now take five hundred brothers to his home, to send his family to report to the underworld."
Chapter 520 - 509: Brother No. 500? What kind of concept is this!
Five hundred brothers!?
Guan Caiban had his phone on speaker.
Hearing the voice from Guan Caiban''s phone, Tang Dongqiang and his wife both shuddered.
Tang Yao was also extremely anxious!
A gang with five hundred members, what kind of concept is that?
Even Hong Kong movies from the 90s wouldn''t dare to portray that!
The gang behind Guan Caiban, situated in the Capital City, was undoubtedly absurdly powerful!
If the gang is like this, needless to say, the family behind the gang!
So powerful it''s unimaginable.
If they act seriously, no one present could survive.
Going against Ye Huan, he''s purely courting death!
Tang Yao grabbed Ye Huan''s arm, with a touch of pleading, said, "Ye Huan, you... you should quickly apologize to Guan Caiban, admit you''re wrong."
"Apologize? Admit I''m wrong? For what?" Ye Huan, munching on a bun, responded unhurriedly.
"Didn''t you hear, he... he called people to trouble Aunt Li..."
"So what?"
"What do you mean so what!" Tang Yao red at Ye Huan, "They''re sending five hundred people to trouble Aunt Li; Aunt Li is definitely in danger, and not just her, but you won''t be in a good situation either."
"Don''t worry."
"It''s just five hundred people."
"Even if it''s five thousand people, they''re just heading to their deaths."
Ye Huan smiled,forting Tang Yao, but the effect was "somewhat" unsatisfactory.
"At a time like this, why are you still talking nonsense, do you really think our Eastern Territory Army, Western Territory Army, Southern Territory Army, Northern Territory Army of Huaxia are owned by your family?"
"Can we be a bit realistic and stop making those impractical fantasies at such a critical moment?"
"Ye Huan, I know you''re great at fighting alone, and I''m grateful you''re willing to help our Tang Family."
"But the gang and family behind Guan Caiban are really formidable. If they retaliate against you, you''ll die!"
Tang Yao''s face was filled with reluctance; she hoped Ye Huan would yield a bit and plead with Guan Caiban.
She didn''t want to see Ye Huan suffer retaliation from those powerful gangs and families because of her, because of the Tang Family.
But little did she know, behind Ye Huan were the two most powerful families in Huaxia''s official domain.
She also didn''t know, the four-territory army was reallymanded by Ye Huan''s family...
As for the so-called powerful gangs, powerful families?
No matter how powerful, can they stand against the military department and the entire army behind the Ye and Li families?
The entire Huaxia army, sixteen million!
Raiding Ye Huan''s house means going against the guns of sixteen million elite soldiers, plus a million tanks, five thousand fighter jets, two thousand five hundred armed helicopters, five thousand nuclear bombs, and countless high-tech weapons!
That''s why Ye Huan''s face disyed a mocking expression.
He was curious to see who exactly was behind Guan Caiban and how audacious they were, to dare to do what the superpower Milliken wanted but didn''t dare to do.
Ye Huan didn''t exin much to Tang Yao, but knowing she was worried about him being retaliated against, he smiled and softly reassured her:
"Secretary Tang, rest assured, nothing will happen."
"The affairs of your Tang Family, I can handle."
"As for the family and gang behind Guan Caiban, I don''t care about them at all."
Ye Huan''s reassuring words frustrated Tang Yao immensely.
This dumb pig just wouldn''t listen to reason!
He didn''t care about the gang and family behind Guan Caiban?
The strong gang and family behind Guan Caiban in the Capital City!
He wouldn''t care about them, and could handle them?
Did he really think the Huaxia military department was his family business!?
If he''s that formidable, why hasn''t he ascended to heaven yet???
Tang Yao''s face turned red with anger, knowing she couldn''t persuade Ye Huan, she turned to Liu Tianyun, tugged at her sleeve, and urgently said, "President Liu, you should persuade Ye Huan."
"Persuade him to do what?" Liu Tianyun blinked in confusion, somewhat puzzled.
Tang Yao anxiously said, "Persuade him to beg Guan Caiban for mercy, if this goes on, Aunt Li will be in danger, and so will you two!"
"Dangerous? Why would it be dangerous?" Liu Tianyun had a puzzled look on her face.
In her eyes, Guan Caiban''s threat to raid Ye Huan''s home waspletely courting death, so she couldn''t understand Tang Yao''s words.
"..."
After a moment of silence, Tang Yao feltpletely helpless.
Liu Tianyun, usually so smart and capable, why was she confused at such a critical moment?
She wanted to persuade Liu Tianyun onest time, exining the pros and cons, but was interrupted.
"Yao Yao, stop kindly advising them, they will only treat kindness as nothing!"
"Ye Huan offending Boss Guan like this, Boss Guan will not let him go."
"Also, didn''t you just hear him say the addresses of Huaxia''s four-territory army headquarters and the General Command Headquarters are his family''s, which basically means he''s saying the Huaxia military department is run by his family!"
"He''s already scared senseless, he''s dreaming in broad daylight!"
"With him like this, why waste your breath advising him."
Tang Dongqiang and his wife slumped on the ground, faces full of despair.
Upon hearing Guan Caiban mention five hundred people, the two of them realized their suspicions were correct.
The backing of Guan Caiban is truly formidable, harder than a coffin board!
With this, their Tang family... is truly going to be implicated and doomed by Ye Huan.
What a misfortune!
"Sigh"
Beside them, Guan Caiban exhaled smoke rings, his mouth curled with satisfaction at the Tang family''s response.
The more desperate others became, the more he could feel the thrill of stepping on people.
But concerning Ye Huan...
Honestly, he couldn''t feel the thrill from stepping on Ye Huan anymore.
That kid, if no ident happened, should''ve been scared senseless, otherwise, how could he say that Huaxia''s army belonged to his family?
Stepping on someone who''s scared senseless brought Guan Caiban no sense of achievement.
Once a "victory" message came from the Capital City, then sending this kid off would suffice.
Guan Caiban nodded to himself.
The next second, he was stunned.
"Alright."
"Your people have gone to their deaths."
"We still have our ounts to settle."
Ye Huan finished his breakfast, pulled out a tissue from the box, wiped his mouth, and suddenly said this.
Settle ounts?
Guan Caiban snapped back, his lips curled into a sneer, "Kid, I''ll give you one more chance to rethink your words, do you dare to say it again?"
Ye Huan crossed his legs and picked up a toothpick:
"Don''t understand humannguage? I said I''m full, now it''s time to settle our ounts."
Chapter 521 - 510: Kid, I have to say, you truly are the Supreme Master of Pretending
"Go ahead, start your performance." Guan Caiban made a ''please'' gesture, looking at Ye Huan with an expression as if he were a mere clown.
"First, you''ve repeatedly sent people to use extreme methods to intimidate and severely disrupt the normal lives of my friend''s family. This constitutes intimidation and provoking trouble. ording to Huaxia''sws, your criminal acts are extremely heinous, and a 25-year sentence wouldn''t be excessive."
"Second, you sent subordinates to block the entrance of ''Xiaoxiao''s Canteen'', using coercion, threats, and other illegal means to seize others'' business. This constitutes unfairpetition and intimidation. A 30-year sentence wouldn''t be too much."
"Third, you sent people to smash my car. This constitutes causing trouble and damaging other people''s property. My car is valued at 1.2 million on the market, which categorizes it as extremely valuable. A life sentence wouldn''t be excessive."
"Fourth, this charge is quite serious. Being executed ten or eight times shouldn''t be considered excessive, right?"
"And below each of your charges, there''s one more: incitement tomit crimes."
"With all these charges together, you should be executed at least a hundred times."
With that, Ye Huan smirked with a meaningful look on his face.
To Guan Caiban, Ye Huan''s words were utterlyughable, his face filled with contempt.
What''s this kid trying to scare with so many charges?
The people whomitted those acts have long disappeared, leaving no trace, making it impossible to prove they were associated with Guan Caiban, thus making it impossible to convict him.
All this babble, utter nonsense.
However, Ye Huan''s "fourth" sentence did indeed send a cold sweat down Guan Caiban''s back, his expression extremely unnatural.
After half a minute, once he calmed down, Guan Caiban steadied himself.
Ye Huan had no dealings with them, and it was his first time here, so it was impossible for him to know about their past misdeeds.
This kid was definitely bluffing.
Little did he know, Ye Huan had already caught the scent of a certain "special item" from them as soon as they entered.
Huan Ge understood at that moment how Guan Caiban and his gang multiplied their wealth tenfold, a hundredfold.
Guan Caiban didn''t know this; he simply thought Ye Huan was bluffing.
"Kid, you want to talkw with me, huh?"
"I''m going to use thew to destroy the Tang Family you''re so eager to protect."
"Let''s see how long you can keep prattling on, kid."
Guan Caiban chuckled coldly to himself, an idea forming in his mind.
Since the patriarch wanted the Tang Family to never recover, why not go the extra mile and have them rot in prison for life?
A sly grin appeared on Guan Caiban''s face.
As he slowly exhaled a thick plume of smoke, he suddenly mmed his palm on the table, breaking it into pieces, scaring Tang Dongqiang and his wife into shivers.
"Hurry up, get four bowls of noodles for my brothers to eat." Guan Caiban ordered.
"Yes, yes, yes."
Tang Dongqiang and his wife dared not hesitate, faces pale as they quickly got up, swallowing hard before rushing into the kitchen.
In less than five minutes, they brought out a tray with four bowls of noodles.
Guan Caiban gestured with his mouth, signaling to Huang Mao and the other three juniors.
The four juniors nodded in understanding and began eating the noodles.
But after only a few bites.
"Bang!"
The four fell to the ground "in an orderly fashion," deliberately overturning the bowls in the process.
Covered in noodle soup and noodles, they started clutching their throats, sticking out their tongues, rolling their eyes, and convulsing violently, just like humans being infected and about to turn into zombies in horror movies, looking extremely hideous and grotesque.
This shocked Tang Dongqiang and his wife terribly.
"Wha... what happened!" Tang Dongqiang eximed in panic,pletely at a loss.
"You son of a b***h, I''ve long heard that the hygiene in your kitchen is poor, and you like to put some ''unholy'' stuff in your dishes. I didn''t believe it before, but now I do."
"Eating just a few bites of noodles did this, what if they ate more?"
"No way... damn, I get it now."
After a shout of surprise, Guan Caiban urgently "backed away in terror" to the restaurant door, pointing at Tang Dongqiang with a "wary" look and said, "You''re trying to poison my brothers and then gang up on me with brute force, aren''t you? Let me tell you, what you''re doing is illegal. I''m calling the police to arrest you!"
Saying this, he actually pulled out his phone and dialed 110: "Officer, this store has poisoned the food, and the owner is trying to beat me up. You muste and save me!"
After hanging up, he put away his phone, pointed at Tang Dongqiang and his wife, and warned, "Don''t make any sudden moves, the police are on their way."
Even though he said that, his face was full of sly smiles.
Seeing this look on his face, how could the Tang Family not realize he was ying dirty tricks?
"This is defamation, nder!" Tang Yao eximed in anger, shouting out.
"What, unhappy?"
"I''m just defaming and ndering you, what are you going to do about it?"
"Let me tell you, this kid wants to use thew to smooth things over for you against me, I''ll use thew to get your whole family thrown in jail."
"Don''t doubt my capabilities, trust me, your entire family will be locked up for life."
Guan Caiban sat back on the sofa with a carefree, disdainful look in his eyes.
"Well, we''ll really have to see if it''s the Tang family that ends up in jail forever, or if you get executed a hundred times over," Ye Huan chuckled lightly from the side.
"Kid, even if you think those ''shady deeds'' of yours were done by people I sent, what can you do? The people doing those things are long gone, impossible to trace, whether you or the police, do you have any way to prove those people are connected to me?" Guan Caiban''s eyes were filled with mockery as he sneered, "You don''t, so you can''t take me down, but I can make the Tang family fall apart clearly, and show you what real power is."
"You seem quite confident?" Ye Huan spoke with a hint of amusement.
"Let me tell you, if you manage to get the cops to nab me, I''ll be your eighteenth-generation great-grandson." Guan Caiban still wore a face full of scorn and contempt; he really didn''t believe Ye Huan could get him.
Because... the people he''d found tomit the crimes had all returned to the headquarters in the Capital City after finishing their deeds, the Celestial Sea police couldn''t trace them at all!
Without finding them, there''s no way to convict him!
Forget Ye Huan, even if deities came, they wouldn''t be able to do anything to him.
But what Guan Caiban didn''t know was.
Ye Huan was more badass than deities.
He wore a mischievous face, saying, "Wait and see, but bing my eighteenth-generation great-grandson isn''t necessary, you''re dirtying my family tree..."
Before Ye Huan could finish speaking.
"Please, can you stop being so stubborn!"
"Why are you meddling in our business!"
"Do our family matters warrant your concern!"
"And what big shot do you think you''re ying at? Do you know who Big Boss Guan is, he''s a representative of a super powerful gang and family from the Capital City here in Celestial Sea! Is this the kind of big shot you think you can offend?"
"It''s one thing if you offend him yourself, but why drag our Tang family into it, why!"
"You''re not helping us settle troubles, you''re going to get our whole family of four killed!"
"Once we''re dead because of you, you won''t escape either! Big Boss Guan, with just one call, can mobilize five hundred people..."
The worst that could originally happen to the Tang family was closing down and leaving.
But now? Because of Ye Huan, they''re going to bepletely ruined by Guan Caiban.
Yet in such a situation, Ye Huan was still mocking, triggering Guan Caiban''s anger more!
In utter despair, Tang Dongqiang couldn''t hold back anymore. He erupted, angrily scolding Ye Huan, the ''culprit'' who plunged the Tang family into a hopeless situation.
By the time he said thest sentence, Ye Huan cut him off.
"Uncle Tang, five hundred people really don''t mean much."
"I can make a call, not to brag."
"Tens of thousands of people can be mobilized easily."
As soon as Ye Huan said this, the entire room fell silent.
"..."
Ye Huan''s words weren''t false, he believed that if he called Ye Tiance to have the Special Service Bureau gather for some action, Ye Tiance would definitely do him the favor.
However, others wouldn''t believe it!
"Tens of thousands with one call? Here, I''ll give you my phone, call one and show me, let me see how badass you really are," Tang Dongqiang was infuriated intoughter, pulling out a chicken-and-duck phone and handing it to Ye Huan.
Ye Huan couldn''t help but sweat.
He could rely on Ye Tiance for a favor indeed.
But it''s unnecessary.
The work of the Special Service Bureau is to guard the national gates, preventing criminal forces from infiltrating into Huaxia, mobilizing them all to deal with someone like Guan Caiban is overkill and would affect their work,pletely unnecessary.
"Make the call then? Didn''t you say you could mobilize tens of thousands with one call, do one and show me, let me see how powerful you really are." Seeing Ye Huan remain silent, the hatred on Tang Dongqiang''s face was evident, if it weren''t for Ye Huan constantly talking big and angering Guan Caiban, the Tang family wouldn''t have ended up as they are now.
"Dad, don''t be like this, Ye Huan is trying to help us in good faith..." Tang Yao grabbed Tang Dongqiang''s arm, pulling him away from Ye Huan.
"Uncle Tang, you might have misunderstood me, I never meant to harm you, I truly wanted to help you."
"Tang Yao is my friend, helping you with this trouble was just something I did conveniently."
"Trust me, this guy will soon face punishment on a hundred counts."
"As for mobilizing tens of thousands against him, it would just be a waste of social resources, no need."
Ye Huan spoke with a nk expression, every word brimming with disdain.
Beside him, Guan Caiban waspletely ''convinced'' by Ye Huan; with a serious look, he gave Ye Huan a thumbs-up, saying:
"Kid, I have to say."
"You truly are a master of showing off, with your strength alone you''ve dominated half the world''s show-offs, I am willing to call you the Supreme Overlord of Show-offs."
Chapter 522 - 511: Executing a Top-Secret Mission, Red Wanted Criminal!?
Tang Dongqiang, standing nearby, was too furious to speak. A deep sigh escaped him, his face a mixture of despair, and his heart brimmed with hatred towards Ye Huan.
Tang Yao looked at Ye Huan without hatred, only me. She knew Ye Huan sincerely wanted to help her, to assist the Tang Family, hence the absence of hate.
The me was for Ye Huan''sck of adaptability.
Why do you insist on being so stubborn when you shouldn''t?
And you never stop bragging!
You spout big talk, but Guan Caiban really has strength!
What will you do if you provoke Guan Caiban?
But s.
It hase to this, we must take things as theye.
Because "Xiaoxiao''s Dining Hall" was located in the city''s central business district (CBD), and the Police Headquarters was right on the edge of the CBD area, officers arrived at the scene within minutes, very quickly.
"Hello, may I ask who reported this?"
Four police officers in total, led by a tall male officer, walked into the restaurant and asked.
As he questioned, he disyed his police badge.
Temporary Captain of Celestial Sea City''s Criminal Investigation TeamZhu Dachang.
"Officer Zhu, hello, I made the report."
Guan Caiban raised his hand, stood up, and congenially shook hands with Zhu Dachang.
The Captain of the Criminal Investigation Team, now that''s a big deal.
"Can you specify what happened?" Zhu Dachang took out his notebook, ready to record.
Guan Caiban pointed to the four men groaning on the floor, his face full of anguish, and said, "Officer Zhu, you must stand up for us. My brothers came here to eat noodles, and after just a few bites, they showed symptoms of poisoning."
Zhu Dachang followed Guan Caiban''s gaze and was somewhat startled by the sight of the four on the ground.
The symptoms looked indeed severe.
"Get our forensic colleagues over, check the food scattered on the ground," Zhu Dachang withdrew his gaze and turned to his assistant.
The assistant nodded and went aside to make a phone call.
Little did they know, Guan Caiban and his four henchmen had a brief sh of a sneer on their faces.
Moreover, the four blond men reached into their pockets, slyly scattered powder over the remaining uneaten noodles beside them and on their faces.
Ye Huan naturally noticed their little maneuver, his eyes momentarily cold.
These people would stop at nothing to frame others.
Scum of society.
In that case, they couldn''t me Brother Huan forck of chivalry.
At this time, Zhu Dachang asked again, "Who is the manager of this establishment?"
"Officer Zhu, we''re being framed."
"It''s Guan Caiban using dirty tricks!"
"Our food is all-natural, very clean, it''s impossible for there to be food poisoning symptoms."
Tang Yao hurriedly tried to rify for her parents.
Zhu Dachang nodded and said, "Ma''am, we understand your concern, but whether the food contains harmful substances needs to wait for our Forensic Bureau colleagues to check for the final result."
Nearby, as Zhu Dachang finished speaking, Ye Huan spoke, "Officer Zhu, this Guan Caiban is suspected of intimidating others, engaging in unfairpetition, inciting others tomit crimes, causing disturbances, damaging others'' property, and...a series of charges. There is one other particrly serious charge, which I will not say for now, but I will tell you once your Forensic Bureau colleaguese to check."
Zhu Dachang was stunned, finding the voice somewhat familiar.
Upon closer inspection, he was greatly surprised.
He recognized Ye Huan, who was once twice brought into the police station by Qin Ya, and he was present, back then as Qin Ya''s deputy.
But in the end, Ye Huan was released each time.
Qin Ya was even ordered to stop for three months due to "wrongful arrest" and went to the traffic police to reflect.
Because Ye Huan was executing "a top-secret mission," he was also an SSS-level dossier holder!
However...
Why is such an important figure here?
Could it be...
Recalling Ye Huan''s earlier usations against Guan Caiban, Zhu Dachang''s expression turned somewhat solemn. After approaching Ye Huan, he whispered, "Mr. Ye, Guan Caiban..."
"Support my operation," Ye Huan said firmly.
Indeed!
He is carrying out a top-secret mission!
The target of the mission is this "evil person first uses" Guan Caiban!
Zhu Dachang''s throat swallowed hard twice, and he softly asked, "How can I assist?"
"You first call for more reinforcements, otherwise I fear the situation will get out of control," Ye Huan said with a meaningful look, genuinely startling Zhu Dachang.
Any criminal pursued by such a top-tier individual must be dangerously dangerous, at least a red-listed wanted criminal!
This Guan Caiban... is very dangerous!
Zhu Dachang subtly signaled his assistant, making several police hand gestures.
The assistant nodded inprehension, left the police station, and hurriedly made a call: "Notify the SWAT team, everyone must gather around the CBD area''s ''Xiaoxiao''s Dining Hall,'' prepare for first-levelbat readiness, bullets chambered, speed, speed!"
After the call, he returned to the restaurant, covertly giving Zhu Dachang an "OK" gesture.
Only then did Zhu Dachang breathe a sigh of relief, his heart still in his throat.
A red-listed criminal is a merciless demon-like figure.
Without backup, one must not act recklessly!
"Once the Forensic Bureau colleagues arrive, we''ll proceed to the next step in the investigation and evidence collection. Please wait a moment." Zhu Dachang''s expression was very serious, and as he spoke, he cast a cold nce at Guan Caiban.
Guan Caiban was immediately displeased.
Originally, Zhu Dachang was questioning the Tang family, but upon seeing Ye Huan, he whispered a few words, and then his attitude changed, no longer targeting the Tang family, but instead casting hostile looks toward him.
These two definitely know each other.
Could it be... the extreme confidence Ye Huan showed earlier, saying he could have him executed a hundred times, was because he knew Zhu Dachang?
Guan Caibanughed mockingly several times in his heart.
What''s the use of knowing Zhu Dachang?
Without evidence, there''s no way he can be convicted!
yingw games with him? Ridiculous.
The final oue can only be the Tang family jailed for life, while he walks free, bing awless ouw!
When the forensic team checks and finds harmful substances in the noodles, the Tang family is finished.
Guan Caibanughed coldly to himself.
The noodles were harmless, but he had his blond henchmen tamper with them, sprinkling a "special substance" onto the ones on the ground.
This substance will surelynd the Tang family in prison for life!
Even gods can''t save them!
That''s Guan Caiban''s goal.
Utilize the police and legal system to ensure the Tang family never recovers.
Guan Caiban lit a cigarette, smoking cheerfully.
Five minutester.
Two forensic doctors arrived at the scene with toolboxes.
"There, these noodles, please help identify if there are harmful substances present." Zhu Dachang saluted his forensic colleagues, then pointed to the noodles on the ground.
On the surface, he appeared normal, but inside he was extremely anxious!
Why hasn''t backup arrived!
If a red-listed criminal erupts, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Chapter 523 - 512: No Crime? Now There Is!
"Report to Captain Zhu."
"In these noodles, there''s..."
The forensic expert, after a few minutes of analysis, came to a shocking conclusion, "They contain arge amount of addictive morphine!"
"What!"
"How is that possible!"
"There is absolutely no such thing!"
Upon hearing this conclusion from the forensic expert, Tang Yao was nearly in tears with anxiety, saying, "Officer Zhu, our... our family''s food could never contain something like this..."
Morphine is a drug!
Selling foodced with drugs to customers is a grave crime, starting with life imprisonment, essentially a sentence to die in prison!
Zhu Dachang didn''t expect the "harmful substance" to be this, furrowing his brow slightly, he asked the forensic expert, "Could morphine cause someone to exhibit such symptoms?"
The symptoms, naturally, were things like Huang Mao and others sticking their fingers in their throat, rolling their eyes, and their bodies convulsing with foaming at the mouth.
"Captain Zhu, when the human body firstes into contact with such a substance, it will have a strong rejection reaction." The forensic expert nodded and replied.
Huang Mao and others were old smokers, so their behavior was naturally on Guan Caiban''s instructions, done intentionally.
From beginning to end, everything was within Guan Caiban''s cunning ns.
"Captain Zhu, there have long been rumors outside saying that ''Xiaoxiao''s Canteen'' does sneaky and underhanded things. I didn''t believe it before, but now I really do."
"They''re unable topete fairly and want to use illegal means to trap customers."
As Guan Caiban spoke, there was a barely noticeable malicious smile at the corner of his mouth.
Tang Yao, hearing this, cried anxiously on the spot.
If the charges were truly established, Tang Dongqiang and his wife would have to endure a lifetime of imprisonment!
She couldn''t ept it, crying with tears like rain: "Officer Zhu, these... these things were only ced to frame us; our family always abides by thew and would never do such things."
"You can cuff him." Ye Huan spoke coldly.
"ck!"
Without any hesitation, Zhu Dachangpleted the action of taking off the silver handcuffs hanging from his waist and re-cuffed them on Guan Caiban''s wrist within a second.
The next second, he even more gravely pulled out the gun from his waist and directly pressed it against Guan Caiban''s forehead.
Everything happened too suddenly, everyone was stunned.
"Wee-oo"
"Wee-oo"
"Wee-oo"
The restaurant was silent as a grave, while outside, police sirens red loudly.
No fewer than thirty police armored vehicles were parked by the roadside!
"Swipe! Swipe! Swipe!"
The doors of the armored vehicles opened in unison, and fully armed SWAT officers disembarked and surrounded the area tightly.
"Dispatch teams to surround the restaurant opposite, don''t let anyone escape." Ye Huan instructed.
Zhu Dachang gave a nce towards his deputy, who understood and went out to give orders.
The SWAT officers moved quickly, swiftly sealing off the restaurant opposite.
"..."
For a moment, the restaurant was once again dead silent.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Even the crying Tang Yao couldn''t understand what was happening in front of her.
Coming to his senses, Guan Caiban, with a gun to his forehead, wet his pants on the spot!
He had driven taxis all his life and only recently, due to making some merits for the Patriarch, climbed to thuggish activities under the Patriarch''s directions, had never seen such a spectacle!
Such a spectacle only appears when catching terrorists, right!
Just as Guan Caiban was about to ask Zhu Dachang what in the world was going on, Ye Huan spoke up and told everyone present who this "terrorist" was.
"Guan Caiban, a world SSS-level red notice fugitive, a South American super drug lord with a bounty of five billion US dors."
"In possession of no less than a thousand human lives, having a thousand tons of morphine ounting for half of the world''s total morphine, and a ck armed force of over ten thousand people in a South American jungle, stronger than some national regr armies."
"Returned to Huaxia three years ago, living under a pseudonym as a taxi driver, in reality scheming to open up the Huaxia market, and formally started the n half a month ago."
Ye Huan calmly revealed all this.
Including Zhu Dachang, all the officers present were stunned with their mouths agape.
This is a super dangerous terror suspect!
Even with a gun to Guan Caiban''s forehead, Zhu Dachang was still sweating in his palms.
Guan Caiban was utterly bewildered, since when did he be such a big shot?
"Captain Zhu, that''s all I''ll introduce about this person''s information."
"Let me also speak about some of the crimes he''smitted locally in Huaxia after his arrival."
"First, which is what''s happening before us, he ndered and framed ''Xiaoxiao''s Canteen'', incited others tomit crimes, and reported false rms."
"His four underlings were instructed by him to lie on the ground pretending to be food poisoned, and deliberately sprinkled morphine powder on the noodles."
Just as Ye Huan finished speaking, Guan Caiban angrily retorted: "You''re talking nonsense, you''re the one framing and inciting crimes, not me! And you just said I''m a South American drug lord, howe I don''t know I''m that badass."
"Haha, still pretending?" Ye Huan sneered, walked outside, and took a rifle from the SWAT officer.
The muzzle was aimed at the four yellow-haired men.
He pulled the trigger!
"Bang!"
The bullet left the chamber and instantly pierced through the floor next to the four yellow-haired men, scattering wood chips.
The four yellow-haired men screamed in terror and got up immediately, their eyes stopped rolling back, they stopped pretending to gag, and their bodies stopped convulsing.
At this moment, the police officers looked at them with extremely unfriendly eyes.
The four yellow-haired men wanted to cry but had no tears.
They were exposed!
Isn''t the false usation and frame-up confirmed now?
Guan Caiban''s face turned pale, and he couldn''t even look at Zhu Dachang directly.
"Second," Ye Huan continued, "this man incited others tomit crimes, indirectly damaging someone else''s valuable property. My wife''s BMW Mini, which she bought for 1.2 million, was smashed to bits by someone he called."
"Bullshit! It''s true your car was smashed, but those who did it have nothing to do with me!" Guan Caiban stubbornly retorted, still not believing Ye Huan could convict him with enough crimes to "be executed a hundred times."
"Nothing to do?"
Ye Huan coldly chuckled.
"Get up," he ordered the yellow-haired men.
The yellow-haired men, with a gun pointed at them, naturally stood up obediently.
Ye Huan searched the kitchen and then handed each of them a wooden stick, pointing his gun at them to go outside the restaurant.
"Smash the car," Ye Huan ordered sternly, raising his phone.
The yellow-haired men immediately swung their wooden sticks and began to smash the already dpidated car.
"Click."
Ye Huan took a photo.
Returning to the restaurant, he showed the photo to Guan Caiban, "Isn''t it your people smashing it?"
What the hell, can you really do this!
Guan Caiban turned purple with rage.
"Third, they are suspected of intentionally injuring others, breaking the legs of customers who didn''t listen to their dissuasion and entered the restaurant to eat."
"Of course, also instigated by Guan Caiban."
This time Ye Huan didn''t give Guan Caiban a chance to argue.
He raised the butt of the gun.
"Bang! Bang!"
With two hits.
"Ahhhhh!!!!" The yellow-haired man fell to the ground, with his knees shattered into bits, screaming as if his parents had died.
He never expected that Ye Huan would break his legs.
Earlier, he had threatened Ye Huan outside the restaurant to be careful of breaking his legs if he went inside to eat.
Ye Huan finished his meal without breaking his legs!
Instead, his own legs were broken!
"Hit his kneecap, while hitting, say: ''See if you dare toe here to eat again''." Ye Huan coldly nced at the remaining threeckeys of Guan Caiban.
The three were so scared that they shivered and hurriedly followed Ye Huan''s instruction, raising their sticks to fiercely beat the yellow-haired man, cursing at the same time.
"Ah! Ouch! Damn! Ouch!"
"Stop hitting, it hurts so much!"
Ye Huan held up his phone, filming the video from the side.
Thus, another piece of "evidence" was created...
Next, Ye Huan continued to have the four men ''cooperate'' in his ''performance.''
Filming evidence of them trafficking children.
Filming evidence of them harassing others'' normal lives.
Filming evidence of them...
A whole series of crimes Ye Huan knew theymitted!
Wasn''t Guan Caiban relying on people escaping and the police unable to find evidence?
Ye Huan got these four to "help," and now all the evidence wasplete...
After half an hour, cold sweat had soaked through Guan Caiban''s white vest, and his face trembled with despair.
Guan Caiban never imagined Ye Huan would be so "hical," so unpredictable!
Unable to find the link between him and the "criminals," meaning the evidence, Ye Huan simply "created" the evidence himself!
With all these pieces of evidenceplete, although not enough to be executed a hundred times.
At least it starts with a life sentence.
From the Tang Family running the prison, it became him, Guan Caiban instead!
Chapter 525 - 514: Oh my, he is the Crown Prince of Huaxia!
Just entered the district, and already surrounded by five thousand special service agents?
How is that possible!
That ce is just an ordinarymunity, how could there be five thousand special service agents!
No matter how impossible, Guan Caiban couldn''t believe it.
The fact happened right before his eyes!
Guan Caiban''s lips trembled.
It''s not a military base, yet there are five thousand special agents...
There''s only one possibility...
These special agents were deployed to guard thatmunity!
But who has such power to deploy five thousand special agents just to guard amunity?
Who!
Who exactly!
Guan Caiban thought, his gaze involuntarily shifted to Ye Huan.
He remembered, before Ye Huan reported the address of thatmunity, he made a phone call.
The phone content was: "Get some people to stand guard downstairs, someone wille over soon..."
Cold sweat dripped from Guan Caiban''s forehead like raindrops, flowing like water onto the floor.
Apart from Ye Huan, Guan Caiban couldn''t think of anyone else who could dispatch special agents to guard thatmunity.
Deploy, deploy.
The people deployed are special agents, and a full five thousand!
No TV show dares to portray this, no novel dares to write this, no movie dares to film this!
Guan Caiban''s eyes widened, filled with shock and disbelief.
He never imagined that one phone call from Ye Huan would possess such power.
Why, why does Ye Huan have such power!
Soon, Guan Caiban got the answer in his heart.
This answer made him feel like his breath was about to stop.
He recalled the family addresses Ye Huan reported.
"Huaxia Special Service Command Bureau..."
"Huaxia Eastern Territory Command Bureau..."
"Huaxia Southern Territory Command Bureau..."
"Huaxia Western Territory Command Bureau..."
"Huaxia National Command Bureau..."
"Capital City, Second Ring, Haitian Garden District..."
Thest one isn''t important, the important ones are the former ones!
Guan Caiban shivered violently.
Wasn''t this kid just bragging when he reported those addresses!?
But... But if this kid was just bragging, how could he make one phone call and deploy five thousand special agents to guard that Haitian Garden District!
This proves, this kid isn''t bragging!
If he isn''t bragging, then those addresses he reported before must be true!
He isn''t some high-level bragger, he''s a terrifyingly powerful bigwig!
The main base of the Great Yellow Gang is in the Capital City, no matter how many people he calls, it''s just a record for the Great Yellow Gang?
In front of someone who can deploy a brigade of special agents with one call, the Great Yellow Gang is not even worth a scallion, at most it''s a micro-ant, tiny to the extreme!
Also, what terrifying identity does Ye Huan possess!
Just as he asked this question in his heart, Guan Caiban got the answer, and he shivered again, his eyes filled with extreme fear.
Ye Huan.
Last name Ye...
The suprememanders of Huaxia''s eastern, southern, western, and northern territories also have thest name Ye, right? The Special Service Bureau''s suprememander, isn''t it Ye Tiance of the Ye Family!?
Capital City Ye Family!
Ye Huan definitelyes from the Capital City Ye Family!
But being from the Ye Family alone, Ye Huan couldn''t possibly report "Huaxia National Command Bureau" as a family address.
The suprememander of thismand bureau is the family head of the Li Family, Li Hentian!
Could it be...
After bing the Gang Leader of the Celestial Sea branch of the Great Yellow Gang, Guan Caiban''s status skyrocketed, and he also came into contact with many Capital City rumors.
He subconsciously linked it to the mysterious identity of "Huaxia''s Crown Prince," born to Ye Tiance and Huaxia''s business queen Li Luo, who only appeared once in the Capital.
Only the Crown Prince carries the blood of both the Ye and Li families!
When Ye Huan reported the address, not only did he mention the Ye Family''s four-territorymand bureau, but he also mentioned the Li Family''s nationalmand bureau...
The ones deployed to guard the Haitian District happened to be special agents of the Special Service Bureau!
The phone call Ye Huan made while reporting the address was definitely to Ye Tiance!
So many pieces of information linked together, Guan Caiban got the answer to what Ye Huan''s identity really is.
He couldn''t believe it, yet he had to believe!
Crown Prince...
Ye Huan is definitely the "Huaxia Crown Prince" who suddenly appeared and then suddenly disappeared, causing a greatmotion in the Capital City recently!
Guan Caiban''s vision went dark.
It was only then he realized what a terrifying entity he had offended.
He had offended the Crown Prince of Huaxia!
It was only then he realized where the mockery on Ye Huan''s face came from when he reported his family''s address.
Behind Ye Huan are the Ye and Li families!
Threatening to wipe out the Ye and Li families, and putting it into action, is simply a suicidal act of looking for a coffin!
It was only then he realized why Ye Huan was so confident when he said he would have him executed a hundred times.
The confidencees from his strength!
Guan Caiban was utterly desperate, spat out a mouthful of reversed blood, and fainted.
He originally wanted to contact the "Patriarch" and ask him to use resources to save him...
But now, his fantasy directly turned into bubbles.
The "Patriarch" couldn''t possibly oppose the Ye and Li families for him!
If the Ye and Li families really wanted to destroy "that family," it''s no different from crushing an ant, just a simple move of the finger is enough!
Even though Guan Caiban was unconscious, he knew his final fate was to take a hundred shots and die with hatred.
Because the one he had offended wasn''t a high-level bragger or a supreme showoff.
But the most terrifying and noble young master of Huaxia!
The unconscious Guan Caiban was eventually escorted onto a police car by the SWAT team.
In the restaurant, Zhu Dachang shook hands with Ye Huan and gratefully said, "Comrade Ye Huan, on behalf of the Celestial Sea City Police Department and its citizens, I want tomend and sincerely thank you for your outstanding contribution in helping the police fight against illegal elements and maintain social order."
"Oh, it was nothing." After shaking hands, Ye Huan scratched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed.
He nced at the members of the Tang Family who were already in a daze, then turned back and said, "Captain Zhu, there''s something I would like to discuss with you."
Zhu Dachang nodded and said, "Mr. Ye, go ahead."
Ye Huan whispered something to him.
"Is it really possible?" Zhu Dachang showed excitement, saying happily, "If this can truly be done, then thank you so much."
Receiving a positive response from Ye Huan, he beamed with happiness and called to disband the team, leading over a thousand SWAT officers away.
"Let''s go." Ye Huan looked at Liu Tianyun.
"What about them..."
Liu Tianyun was naturally referring to the still-stunned Tang Family members who hadn''te to their senses.
Ye Huan shook his head, indicating that they didn''t need to worry about them, and then took her away.
...
"What did you say to Captain Zhu at the end?" In the passenger seat of the BMW Mini, after Liu Tianyun fastened her seatbelt, she blinked a couple of times and curiously asked Ye Huan.
"I told him that Western medicine doesn''t work well for treating morphine addiction, whereas traditional Chinese medicine is very effective. I also suggested that after contacting the victims who''ve consumed food containing morphine, they be arranged for treatment with the renowned doctor Zhang Song at the Celestial Sea City Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital." Ye Huan started the car while answering aloud.
"That''s it?"
"You talked for a few minutesit couldn''t have been just that, right?"
Liu Tianyun looked increasingly suspicious, her gaze growing sharper as she scoffed, "Be honest, what else did you say?"
ck lines appeared on Ye Huan''s face; this woman''s intuition was really sharp.
He had no choice but to add, "I also said that as long as the victims mention ''Xiaoxiao''s Kitchen,'' they can receive free treatment services."
"This way, not only can the police avoid dealing with this troublesome issue, but ''Xiaoxiao''s Kitchen'' will also improve its image in the victims'' minds."
"This goodwill gesture by ''Xiaoxiao''s Kitchen'' will also spread among the crowd in the CBD area, reversing the restaurant''s reputation overnight."
"As more and more peoplee to dine here, the nder by Guan Caiban and others against ''Xiaoxiao''s Kitchen'' will copse on its own, and with the restaurant''s affordable and delicious food, ''Xiaoxiao''s Kitchen'' will be one of the most popr dining spots in the CBD area."
"Doing all this is for Tang Yao, right?"
"You really are something, getting my secretary on your side without me even knowing?"
"Come clean, when did the two of you get together?"
Liu Tianyun huffed, staring directly at Ye Huan, as if her gaze could see through his heart.
The reason Ye Huan had previously kept part of his conversation with Zhu Dachang a secret was to avoid misunderstandings with Liu Tianyun.
Who knew it would backfire.
By hiding it, it instead seemed he had a guilty conscience.
"If I say Tang Yao and I have no special rtionship and it''s merely help between friends, would you believe me?" Ye Huan said helplessly, attempting ast-ditch exnation.
"I''d be crazy to believe you."
"But I won''t get mad over this. After all, I allow you to have other women, and since Tang Yao is my secretary, I''m well aware of her character. I have no issue being ''sisters'' with her."
Liu Tianyun spoke with a hint of exasperation, then shifted the topic, biting her teeth heavily, filled with a tone of mock jealousy, "I just want to ask you one question: between Tang Yao and me, whose legs look better?"
As she spoke, she stretched out her long, beautiful legs,ying them across Ye Huan''sp.
In that moment, her face turned slightly reddish.
This action was indeed a bit bold;st night''s boldness was fueled by alcohol, but now she waspletely sober.
But recalling how Ye Huan, right in front of her in the restaurant, stared so long at Tang Yao''s legs before taking a seat, she felt a bitpetitive.
Ye Huan''s mouth twitched, replying awkwardly, "I just took a few ncesit''s not that serious, is it?"
"Didn''t ask if it''s serious or not, just answer my question." Liu Tianyun feigned impatience.
Ye Huan maintained a calm facade, but in his heart, it felt like an endless prairie trampled by a thousand divine beasts.
How could he possibly answer this question?
Firstly, no matter whose legs hemented on as better, he would surely offend the other.
Secondly, when ites to legs, the petition" between these two women was genuinely hard to judge!
Ye Huan faced forward, but from the corner of his eye, he nced down at those long legs resting in hisp.
Due to work obligations, Liu Tianyun''s attire was the same as Tang Yao''sbusiness OOTD paired with ultra-thin ck stockings and high heels.
Their leg shapes were perfect, and the ultra-thin ck stockings entuated their "unique charm."
Liu Tianyun''s legs were long and curvy, with enough flesh to feel substantial but not overweight, making them quite attractive.
Tang Yao''s legs...
Ye Huan "recollected" for a moment.
Tang Yao''s legs were long and slender,cking the feeling of flesh but having immense aesthetic appeal, with the curve from thigh to foot being nearly perfect.
The two women were different types, yet both were outstanding in their respective categories!
Thispetition couldn''t yield a clear winner!
This question was really one he couldn''t answer.
"What are you waiting for, answer quickly!" Liu Tianyun said, her face flushed as she sat in the passenger seat.
Ye Huan couldn''t keep staring, or she''d want to crawl into a hole to hide and calm down.
Answer?
It was impossible to answer.
But if he didn''t, it''d be awkward.
Just then, a thought crossed Ye Huan''s mind.
As long as he wasn''t embarrassed, the one embarrassed would be someone else!
"Just by looking, you can''t tell."
"You have to ''try'' it."
Ye Huan said matter-of-factly, reaching out a hand to casually stroke the long legs resting on hisp with a serious expression.
Damn!
At the moment he touched them, he internally eximed.
That sensation was simply too wonderful!
"You... you..." Liu Tianyun blushed to her ears, quickly withdrawing her legs as Ye Huan was getting carried away, looking out the window, unable to say a word, and her initial question forgottenpletely.
She never expected Ye Huan to make a move!
Really, how could heunch a surprise attack?
He didn''t give her any notice!
Didn''t let her prepare mentally at all!
Too naughty!
Ye Huan''s "n" was very sessful.
As long as he wasn''t embarrassed, the one who would be embarrassed was Liu Tianyun!
All the way to Tianyun International, Liu Tianyun was too shy to speak and never questioned Ye Huan again about "whose legs looked better"!
The Novel will be updated first on this website. Come back and

"Didn''t ask if it''s serious or not, just answer my question." Liu Tianyun feigned impatience.
Ye Huan maintained a calm facade, but in his heart, it felt like an endless prairie trampled by a thousand divine beasts.
How could he possibly answer this question?
Firstly, no matter whose legs hemented on as better, he would surely offend the other.
Secondly, when ites to legs, the petition" between these two women was genuinely hard to judge!
Ye Huan faced forward, but from the corner of his eye, he nced down at those long legs resting in hisp.
Due to work obligations, Liu Tianyun''s attire was the same as Tang Yao''sbusiness OOTD paired with ultra-thin ck stockings and high heels.
Their leg shapes were perfect, and the ultra-thin ck stockings entuated their "unique charm."
Liu Tianyun''s legs were long and curvy, with enough flesh to feel substantial but not overweight, making them quite attractive.
Tang Yao''s legs...
Ye Huan "recollected" for a moment.
Tang Yao''s legs were long and slender,cking the feeling of flesh but having immense aesthetic appeal, with the curve from thigh to foot being nearly perfect.
The two women were different types, yet both were outstanding in their respective categories!
Thispetition couldn''t yield a clear winner!
This question was really one he couldn''t answer.
"What are you waiting for, answer quickly!" Liu Tianyun said, her face flushed as she sat in the passenger seat.
Ye Huan couldn''t keep staring, or she''d want to crawl into a hole to hide and calm down.
Answer?
It was impossible to answer.
But if he didn''t, it''d be awkward.
Just then, a thought crossed Ye Huan''s mind.
As long as he wasn''t embarrassed, the one embarrassed would be someone else!
"Just by looking, you can''t tell."
"You have to ''try'' it."
Ye Huan said matter-of-factly, reaching out a hand to casually stroke the long legs resting on hisp with a serious expression.
Damn!
At the moment he touched them, he internally eximed.
That sensation was simply too wonderful!
"You... you..." Liu Tianyun blushed to her ears, quickly withdrawing her legs as Ye Huan was getting carried away, looking out the window, unable to say a word, and her initial question forgottenpletely.
She never expected Ye Huan to make a move!
Really, how could heunch a surprise attack?
He didn''t give her any notice!
Didn''t let her prepare mentally at all!
Too naughty!
Ye Huan''s "n" was very sessful.
As long as he wasn''t embarrassed, the one who would be embarrassed was Liu Tianyun!
All the way to Tianyun International, Liu Tianyun was too shy to speak and never questioned Ye Huan again about "whose legs looked better"!
Chapter 526 - 515: Hoarse Voice
National Highway G-01.
The BMW Mini races towards the Capital City.
In the next two days, Brother Huan must ensure Lilith''s personal safety until she safely boards the ne back to the West.
After she leaves for the West, he''ll also need to handle emotional matters with Su Qingqing and the others.
Thinking of this, Ye Huan can''t help but feel a headacheing on.
He really has no experience handling emotional problems.
"Ding."
Suddenly, a WeChat notification sound rings out.
"Come home early."
Looking at the cute cat emoji sent by Liu Tianyun on WeChat, Ye Huan lets out a long sigh.
Truly a sin, how can my charm be so great?
To captivate Su Qingqing and the others aside.
This living iceberg female CEO has been charmed into a cute little wife, it''s ridiculous.
Too ridiculous.
After replying with an "OK" emoji, Ye Huan searched through his contacts and called Lilith, wanting to confirm where she was staying so he could go find her.
"Hello, the number you dialed is temporarily unavable, please try againter."
The cold voice of the system rang out, and the call was disconnected.
She''s probably still sleeping, adjusting to the time difference.
Without much thought, Ye Huan put down his phone...
"Hello, the number you dialed is temporarily unavable, please try againter."
Two hourster, the BMW Mini was about to enter the Capital City, and Ye Huan called Lilith several times, trying to find out her current location, but all the calls went unanswered.
Ye Huan frowned slightly.
It''s already noon, even adjusting to the time difference, she shouldn''t be sleeping now.
Could something have happened?
It shouldn''t be.
On the night of the concert, after separating from Lilith at the Haitian District where she was staying, he contacted Ye Tiance, asking him to send a few special forces soldiers to secretly protect Lilith.
If there''s any disturbance, these special forces soldiers would notify him immediately.
But unexinably, Ye Huan felt a sense of unease.
Having fought for years in the Dark World, his intuition had saved him countless times from life and death crises.
He had absolute faith in his intuition.
Something might really have happened!
Ye Huan took a deep breath and made another call.
As he anticipated, after the assassin''s first failed attempt, they would investigate those around Lilith, such as him, Ye Huan.
In this case, they definitely wouldn''t rashlyunch a second assassination attempt in a short time.
Plus, with the special forces soldiers secretly guarding, Ye Huan''s vignce had rxed slightly, and he returned to Celestial Sea.
He immediately felt a bit of regret.
Wishful thinking is a big taboo!
Ye Huan''s face fell.
But just as he was about to hang up the call and contact the special forces soldiers sent by Ye Tiance to inquire about Lilith''s location...
"Buzz"
The call connected.
"Lilith? Why did you take so long to answer the phone?" Ye Huan asked urgently.
On the other end, there was azy yawn, and then a voice came through.
"Darling, I was sleeping to adjust to the time difference."
"Eh, it''s already noon? Weird, why am I still so tired after sleeping for fifteen hours?"
"Ah~ I slept so deeply this time, if it weren''t for your call, I''d still be dreaming now."
As she spoke, Lilith yawned again, her tonezy, full of drowsiness.
Ye Huan held his phone, his eyes narrowing as his face grew extremely serious, "Lilith, go find a mirror and look at yourself."
"Huh? Why..."
"No need for a mirror; just use your phone screen to see what you look like!" Ye Huan interrupted Lilith definitively.
"Okay."
Lilith uttered a word, her voice still heavy with sleep.
Although she didn''t know what Ye Huan meant, she followed his instructions, opened her bleary eyes, and looked at her phone screen.
The phone screen reflected her appearance!
In that instant, she was wide awake, her eyes bulging like copper bells, frozen in shock.
Coming back to her senses, she opened her mouth...
"Ah!!!"
The first syble of her scream was abruptly cut off by Ye Huan''s stern voice, "Don''t scream, be silent!"
On the other end, Lilith''s terrified scream stopped abruptly.
"Ye Huan, I... I..." Lilith started crying directly.
Ye Huan interrupted her once again, his expression extremely serious as he instructed:
"From now on, don''t let anyone into your room."
"Don''t make any noise, even your breathing should be quiet."
"If someone breaks into your room before I arrive, y dead!"
"Now tell me which hotel and suite you''re staying in!"
After obtaining the hotel and suite number where Lilith was staying, Ye Huan stomped on the gas pedal, and the car shot out like a rocket, rushing towards The Ritz-Carlton Hotel in the Capital City.
Ye Huan''s face was so tense that water could drip from it, extremely serious.
Lilith''s voice was sweet and pleasant, which is one of the most important reasons she could be a world-ss diva.
But just now, her voice on the phone was hoarser than sandpaper scraping against a ckboard, each syble painfully grating...
Just like...
The voice of a dying person!
Chapter 527 - 516: Your Miss has an emergency, come back quickly!
Capital City, Ritz Carlton Hotel, Presidential Suite No. 1.
"What are you doing, stop it!"
"That''s dirty, don''t do that!"
On therge bed, Lilith shouted in shock, trying to stop Ye Huan.
"Shut up, don''t make too much noise."
"Besides, I''m just smelling, not doing anything else."
Ye Huan lifted his head, discontentedly stopping Lilith''s screaming, then lowered his head again...
Lilith was helpless, swallowing back the words that came to her lips, though her mind was full ofints.
How could Ye Huan be so eager to sniff something so dirty?
Could it be that he has some sort of fetish?
That''s not okay!
It''s too dirty!
"Did you use this ce morning, noon, and night?" Ye Huan asked, frowning.
"Yes, I used it all the time." Lilith replied a bit embarrassed.
"How shameless!"
Ye Huan was gritting his teeth.
"I''m not shameless, but you shouldn''t do that, that thing has been fermenting in the trash can for so long, it''s dirty!"
"I told you I''m just smelling, not eating. Besides, I can tell you clearly, the assassin has already been here." Ye Huan said, flicking a grain of rice from his hand back into the trash bin.
"You mean..." Lilith covered her mouth, a bit rmed.
Ye Huan nodded, irked, "Yes, I smelled the scent of ''something else'' on that grain of rice, but I can''t determine which meal it belongs to, morning, noon, or night. This means the assassin might be one of the three waiters who delivered your meals.
In his words, there was a hint of me.
ming Lilith for wasting food and disrespecting the farmers.
Such arge trash bin, half filled with leftover food.
"I...I''m just not used to Huaxia''s cuisine, so at every meal, I end up losing my appetite towards the end and throw it away." Lilith stuck out her tongue yfully, then angrily pulled out her phone and started dialing while grumbling, "This hotel''s supposed to be seven-star, but the security sucks, and there''s an assassin among the staff. I''m going toin until they''re dead, and then have those three who brought me foode up here so I can interrogate them myself."
Before her call went through, Ye Huan snatched the phone from her, stopping her futile attempt.
Normal hotel security only guards against some social conflicts and offers no defense against professional assassins.
Plus, as long as the assassin who disguised as a waiter and delivered the meals with ''foreign objects'' is rational, they would certainly hide after the delivery.
The hotel won''t be able to find him, let alone bring him up to face Lilith''s questioning.
"Don''t waste your energy."
"I ask you, where''s your assistant, Diana?"
"Has she entered your suite?"
"If not, then the assassin can only be one of those three waiters." Ye Huan said.
"Diana would never harm me, rest assured." Lilith dismissed the ''possibility'' Ye Huan mentioned, but still answered, "Diana is staying next door in Presidential Suite No. 2. She was jetgged yesterday, same as me, and knocked on my door midway to ask if I would attend the closing press conference for today''s concert. I told her from behind the door I wouldn''t, and she left. She hasn''t stepped foot in my room. As for now, she''s likely attending the press conference herself."
Ye Huan said nothing, silently taking out his phone.
He had a deeply unpleasant memory, from his second year in the Dark World when he had a brief ''romance'' with a down-and-out assassin.
The two had a great rtionship,sting for a month.
But once.
During a routine ''English learning'' session, the woman was ''teaching'' on the bed one moment, then in the next, she suddenly pulled out a knife, aiming to sh Ye Huan''s throat.
If it weren''t for Ye Huan''s quick reactions, taking and turning the knife against her, he would have died.
That''s when Ye Huan realized the month''s sweet interaction was the woman numbing his nerves all along.
The woman''s approach was for the million-dor bounty on his head.
This amount was enough to drive every impoverished assassin crazy.
After this incident, Ye Huan never easily trusted anyone again.
Human nature is not worth trusting.
For profit, someone who calls you brother one moment might kill you the next.
Using his right hand, Ye Huan took out his phone, directly opening a live-streaming tform, finding the live stream of the press conference, and clicked to watch.
Diana was indeed on screen.
Ye Huan moved his left-hand fingers slightly, unlocking Lilith''s phone screen and rummaging through her contacts.
Finding Diana''s number, he called her.
His eyes were fixed on the live stream on his right-hand phone.
The moment the call connected, Diana on the live screen visibly looked different, apologetically covered her pants pocket, said a few words, and temporarily left the scene.
Within seconds, the call connected.
"Miss, what''s wrong?" Diana asked.
Ye Huan sighed and said sorrowfully:
"Diana, it''s Ye Huan. Your Miss is in trouble, hurry back!"
Chapter 528 - 517: Condolences
Something happened?
Listening to the sadness in Ye Huan''s words, Diana was stunned for a while. Afterposing herself, she urgently asked, "Why are you holding mydy''s phone, and what happened to her?"
"I... I had an appointment with yourdy, to meet her today and take her on a date."
"But I knocked on the door for a long time with no response."
"So I used a spare room card toe in."
"And found... found yourdy..."
Ye Huan spoke, "sobbing" twice, his voice trembling.
"Are you a woman? Speak clearly, what exactly happened to mydy!" Diana shouted in anger, but her heart was filled with extreme unease.
"She... she..."
"She..."
Ye Huan deliberately paused for a long time, finally sighing full of sorrow, "Ah, you''d bettere back and see for yourself, I can''t say it out loud!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Meanwhile.
In the backstage of a media organization in the Capital City.
"Bang."
The phone fell to the ground, tears gushed from Diana''s eyes, and she hurriedly ran to the roadside, waving to hail a taxi, heading back to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel.
Upon hearing the sorrowful tone and words of Ye Huan, how could she not know what had happened!
It must have been that Lilith was assassinated by a killer while she was away!
Thinking of this, Diana''s eyes went ck, and her figure was a bit unstable, but she held back and didn''t pass out.
Even in extreme grief, she had to see Lilith onest time!
If she were merely Lilith''s assistant and maid, she wouldn''t be so heartbroken, but she has another hidden identity.
Wet nurse!
Lilith''s wet nurse!
Twenty-three years ago, when the queen of Hera gave birth to Lilith while seriously injured, she then went into seclusion to recover.
At the time, there were only two women in the Divine King Hall.
Queen Hera.
Hera''s close maidDiana.
As the only woman in the Divine King Hall apart from Hera, sixteen-year-old Diana had no choice but to take on the responsibility of bing Lilith''s wet nurse.
From Lilith''s birth until now, for these twenty-three years, she has been by her side all the way!
Even more so than Hera, Diana has spent more time with Lilith!
For Lilith, Diana harbors different feelings, almost like a mother''s feelings towards a child.
But because of Lilith''s identity as the daughter of the Divine King, she dared not reveal it and kept it buried in her heart.
Now, upon hearing the "news of Lilith''s death," those feelings burst forth uncontrobly!
Just feeling... about to suffocate.
...
"Are you testing Diana? Still suspecting her?" Lilith asked with a frown.
Ye Huan threw the phone back to her and said, "After seeing her in the live video, I no longer suspected her. I said that to her on purpose just now to lure the killer out."
"Lure the killer out?"
"So that means..."
"Do you have a n?"
Lilith seemed a bit surprised.
Ye Huan nodded affirmatively, "Yes."
Lilith was first delighted, then touched her own wrinkled face, and said through gritted teeth, "When we catch the killer, you must let me kick him twice, otherwise, it won''t resolve my hatred. That bastard, how dare he turn me into this appearance."
"When we catch the killer, I''ll help you return to your original form."
Ye Huan''s words brought joy to Lilith.
"Mwah!"
She believed Ye Huan could cure her and restore her beauty, so she appeared very optimistic and not sad.
But after receiving a positive answer, she excitedly hugged Ye Huan and gave him a heavy kiss on the face, making him full of ck lines.
"From now on, you lie in bed, and without my permission, no matter what happens, don''t move."
After wiping Lilith''s saliva off his face, Ye Huan gave a reminder.
Then, he bent down, picked up a grain of rice from the trash can, and carefully sniffed it.
His eyebrows furrowed deeply.
The "strange smell" on the rice was very simr to the B-max that Liu Aimin encountered.
But yet, also not very simr.
The symptoms were also, seemingly alike, yet unlike.
Take Liu Aimin for instance, the B-max he encountered could quickly damage the human organs, causing the physical body to die first, and then attack the nervous system.
The toxin Lilith encountered could instantly render a person unconscious and during the sleep, elerate the aging of all organs, killing silently and without trace, achieving the purpose of a person dying unknowingly.
This process takes about fifteen to twenty hours.
Now calcted, it''s almost done.
Ye Huan flicked away the grain of rice, a meaningful expression appeared on his face.
The killer couldn''t have poisoned and then left the hotel.
He needs to take a head or a photo of the dead body back to report.
Now, there are only a few hours left!
The killer must be tense and closely monitoring the situation in Presidential Suite No. 1.
So... this can be exploited significantly.
...
"Miss, it''s all my fault!"
"It''s all my fault, I let you down!"
"If I had insisted you note to Huaxia, you wouldn''t have met with harm!"
"I''m sorry, so sorry!!!"
"It''s my fault!!!"
Diana exited the elevator, tears once again flowing uncontrobly, she sobbed and ran towards Presidential Suite No. 1.
"Bang!" kicked the door open.
Seeing Ye Huan behind the door.
She froze for a moment, crying as she questioned, "What happened to mydy!"
"Condolences." Ye Huan put on a sorrowful face, sighing.
Even though she was mentally prepared, Diana still swayed and lost bnce.
If it weren''t for Ye Huan supporting her, she would have fallen to the ground.
"Aren''t you amazing!"
"How could you let mydye to harm!"
"How could you not protect her!"
Diana used all her strength, pounding on Ye Huan''s chest, her words filled with hatred.
If it wasn''t for Ye Huan, Lilith wouldn''t have stayed in Huaxia for so long!
As for Ye Huan saving Lilith at the concert...
Diana felt it was unnecessary.
Zeus had indeed found the renowned 13th Celestial God in the Dark World God of ughter to protect Lilith.
A dignified 13th Celestial God, should definitely be stronger than Ye Huan, right?
If Ye Huan could save Lilith, let alone the God of ughter!
If Ye Huan hadn''t shown up at the concert, the subsequent events would have been the God of ughter saving Lilith, killing the thugs, then the concert ended, and Diana would have taken Lilith back to the West to receive protection from the Divine King Hall, everything would have been so perfect!
But all of this quietly changed once Ye Huan appeared at the concert.
The God of ughter didn''t make a move.
The thug was killed by Ye Huan, and Lilith was saved by Ye Huan.
But because of Ye Huan, she insisted on staying in Huaxia, which gave the killer an opportunity, leading to Lilith''s misfortune!
gue!
If the one who killed the thugs was the God of ughter, Ye Huan hadn''t appeared, Lilith would have already returned to the West, receiving protection from the Divine King Hall!
Diana''s hatred for Ye Huan was overwhelming, wishing she could tear him apart!
"Sorry." Ye Huan sighed deeply, voice low, "By the time I came, Lilith was already harmed."
"Get out!"
"You get out!"
"I don''t want to see you again, get out!"
Diana shouted, violently pushing Ye Huan out of the suite, then mmed the suite door shut.
"Miss Diana, don''t be like this!"
"Let me see Lilith off for thest time!"
"I beg you, please open the door!"
Ye Huan shouted "crying," pounding on the suite door, his voice trembling.
Listening to his words, many people''s expressions changed slightly in the spacious corridor outside the suite.
Among them, a "female" service attendant, who was about to deliver something to other suites with a tray in hand, heard Ye Huan''s cry, suddenly stopped, and her eyes narrowed...
Chapter 529 - 518: Dragged Out and Executed?
"What''s going on!"
"What''s wrong with Lilith!"
A fierce female attendant grabbed Ye Huan by the cor, spraying spittle all over his face.
The other four female attendants looked equally anxious, worried sick.
Clearly, they were the special agents secretly guarding Lilith.
"How dare you talk!" Ye Huan shouted back angrily, "I had youe to protect Lilith, but you neglected your duties, leading to her assassination! What crime have youmitted... no, you all deserve to be executed!"
Upon hearing this, the five female special agents turned pale, stumbling backward several steps.
They realized that this man, who resembled Ye Tiance by seventy percent, was Ye Tiance''s son, the appointed person for this mission.
But...
But they hadn''t neglected their duties!
"Mr. Ye, how... how is this possible!"
"All five of us were guarding this ce. Even when we went to the bathroom, it was once every six hours, taking turns. Anyway, no matter what, at least four people were guarding the door, and we didn''t see anyone suspicious..."
Before the fierce female special agent could finish, Ye Huan, heartbroken and furious, pointed at her nose and scolded:
"No one, huh! Didn''t you let in three people delivering food!"
"I checked the food Lilith left in the suite, and it was poisoned!"
"I think you were neglecting your duties, not taking the task seriously, and you should all be executed!"
"Thud," the fierce female special agent stumbled and fell to the ground.
The other four didn''t look well either.
They had checked the three attendants who went in to deliver the food and found no weapons on them.
As for the food, they only opened the iron cover on the tes.
They just took a quick look, confirmed there were no weapons under the cover, and let them through, never thinking the food might be poisoned.
"Mr. Ye..."
"This was our oversight, I''m sorry."
The fierce female special agent, biting her lip and looking apologetic, got up and bowed ny degrees to Ye Huan, "When I return, I will take the penalty of execution myself."
"As long as you''re aware!"
"But it''s not just you, the rest of you should be executed too!"
Ye Huan said angrily, pointing at the noses of the remaining female special agents, shouting at them.
"I''m sorry."
"Mr. Ye, Miss Lilith''s death is indeed partly our responsibility."
"When we go back, we''ll ept the penalty of execution."
"But..."
The five female special agents bowed ny degrees and sighed in unison, "The dead can''te back, please restrain your grief..."
"Get out!"
"All of you, get out!"
Ye Huan shouted impatiently again, showcasing his anger.
"Fine, we''ll leave." The female special agents nodded, bowed again, took a deep breath, and backed away.
To appear more furious, Ye Huan even took off a shoe and aggressively threw it at the female special agents.
On the surface, while doing so, the corners of his mouth curled in private.
Having reached this point, it should almost be enough.
At most, just thest step is left.
"Miss Diana, please!"
"Just let me in!"
"Let me see Lilith onest time!"
Ye Huan knocked hard on the door of the presidential suite No. 1.
Seeing no response.
He gritted his teeth, turned around, and waved to a female attendant.
"Sir, how can I help you?" the female attendant asked, a bit frightened, having watched Ye Huan''s furious outburst.
"Get me a key card, for this presidential suite No. 1, and also bring some food. My friend just came back from a press conference, probably still hungry. I want to take the food in and with warmth, persuade her to allow me to see the person I wish to see onest time," Ye Huan said.
The female attendant hesitated awkwardly, "Sir, may I ask..."
Seeing Ye Huan''s face turn cold, showing signs of anger, the female attendant shuddered and hurriedly acknowledged before running off.
In less than three minutes, she returned with a tray and handed a room key card to Ye Huan.
Ye Huan took it with a cold expression, with an act of total despair and sorrow between his brows.
His acting was wless, showing no sign of any loophole.
"Beep," it sounded.
As he opened the suite''s door, he said sorrowfully, "Miss Diana, you just attended a press conference and definitely didn''t have lunch. You''re already grieving, and if you don''t eat, your health can''t take it. I''ve ordered you some food!"
With that, he walked into the suite.
"Bang," the suite door closed.
This process was entirely observed by the "female" attendant holding a metal tray nearby...
Chapter 530 - 519: "Lilith is dead?
"Come on, time to eat."
Ye Huan whistled cheerfully as he carried a te over to the side of the suite''srge bed.
Dianay by the bed, crying bitterly.
Lilith looked helpless, "Diana, what are you doing? I''m not even dead, why are you crying?"
"Miss, you... you''ve turned into such a state, how can I not cry..."
"What on earth is going on..."
Diana sobbed, if not for the slight familiarity she could catch from the aged face before her, she wouldn''t have believed the person before her was Lilith.
Once, Lilith''s skin was wless and tender, but now it was full of wrinkles, dry as if it were withered bark, brown spots speckled her cheeks and neck, looking extremely unsettling;
Once, Lilith had fair and slender hands with distinct knuckles, now they were just a thinyer of skin, veins like little worms crawling underneath, each pulse visible;
Once, Lilith had long and slender legs, they were now as thin as sticks, with no flesh left, and their color turned sallow;
Once, Lilith had bright and expressive eyes, now they were deeply sunken, the starlight in them vanished;
Once, Lilith''s hair was a shiny waterfall of wavy blonde locks, now they were dull and matted, with split ends and signs of balding at the top;
It was visible to the naked eye that her golden hair was still falling out continuously.
She looked like someone about to enter a coffin...
No, more like a dead person, with not a trace of vitality.
"What happened? Ah, it''s all because of that damn assassin." Lilithmented, "Yesterday, out of the three meals I had, one was poisoned, and after eating it, I fell unconscious. When I woke up, I was like this."
"What!" Diana eximed, then in a fit of rage pulled out her phone and angrily said, "Damn Ritz-Carlton Hotel, daring to poison the food, clearly they wish to cease existing in this world. I''m going to call my master right now to have him dispatch the Divine King Legion to raze the Ritz-Carlton family and make that damned family repent their sins underground!"
Listening to this, Ye Huan''s mouth twitched, then he reached out and snatched Diana''s phone.
"The poison wasn''t from the Ritz-Carlton, don''t falsely use them," Ye Huan said speechlessly.
Diana snatched her phone back and angrily retorted, "How did you get in here, get out..."
"Diana, don''t be like this!" Lilith showed dissatisfaction, "Without Ye Huan, I might still be asleep, waiting for death, he''s my savior!"
"Miss, you''re still speaking for him." Diana gritted her teeth, looking very displeased, "If it weren''t for him, you would have returned to the West after the concert and not been poisoned."
"Without him, I would have died at the concert!"
"Miss, without him, we still have the God of ughter, and Zeus had arranged for the God of ughter to protect you!"
"He is known in the Western Dark World as the Thirteenth Celestial God, holding the title of God of ughter capable of rivaling the Celestial God with a mortal body!"
On hearing Lilith''s words, Diana, who was about to argue, was left utterly speechless.
Diana''s throat moved twice with difficulty, directly facing Ye Huan, she asked in disbelief, "You''re the God of ughter..."
"Let''s skip other matters for now, the priority is to have the assassine quickly to ''verify the corpse''," Ye Huan decisively interrupted Diana.
"What else needs to be done?" Lilith''s face grew slightly solemn, for she knew the time to close the was near.
"Just the... final step left," Ye Huan said, a yful smirk appearing on his face.
In his n, Diana needed to show grief.
But Ye Huan knew as a professional killer himself, just how good they were at reading people.
If Diana was told in advance to feign grief, it might seem forced and the assassin would easily see through it, which would just backfire.
So, when he made that phone call, he deliberately spoke with a low tone, sighed several times, and stammered often.
This was to send a signal to Diana.
The signal that Lilith had been assassinated and was already dead.
In this way, whether or not Diana disyed sadness, the emotions she showed at least would be genuine.
But Diana''s reaction was much more than Ye Huan had expected!
When she ran out from the elevator, she broke down crying, and in her sobbing, there was nothing but sorrow, which well conveyed a message to the lurking assassin.
That message was: Lilith is dead!
Diana''s genuinely heartfelt and sorrowful cries were sure to exponentially increase the credibility of this information in the assassin''s heart, making the effect indescribably good!
After hearing themotion outside the door, Ye Huan stood behind the door in advance, allowing his face to be written with "grief" as well.
When Diana pushed the door open, he again used both his dialogue and demeanor with Diana tomunicate the notion that "Lilith was dead" to the assassin.
Dianater pushed Ye Huan out of the room, which naturally gave Ye Huan another "performance" opportunity!
Ye Huan believed the assassin knew someone was protecting Lilith in secret, which is why they used such an imperceptible method to kill.
So, he cried loudly in front of the door about Lilith''s murder to deliberately stir up the special ops agents secretly guarding Lilith, then berated them, expressing extreme anger!
This indirectly informed the assassin that the people secretly protecting Lilith were sent by him, Ye Huan.
Throwing a tantrum and threatening to shoot the special ops agents, throwing shoehorns to chase them all away, it signaled to the assassin that Brother Huan was an ipetent fool.
This not only made the assassinugh and let down their guard but also intensified Ye Huan''s emotions, adding more credibility to the "Lilith is dead" message in the assassin''s heart.
Moreover, it indirectly conveyed a vital piece of information to the assassin.
That the people secretly protecting Lilith had all been withdrawn...
No protection meant it was the best time to verify the corpse.
This assassin surely couldn''t hold back any longer.
Just one more action, to further enhance the credibility of the dead Lilith news in the assassin''s heart, and the assassin will surely show up for ''corpse verification''!
Ye Huan, with a yful look on his face, dangled the food tray in front of Diana.
"What are you doing?" Diana still wasn''t quite convinced that Ye Huan was the God of ughter, her tone was unfriendly.
"Miss Diana, you haven''t finished your meal since attending the press conference, is it time for lunch?" Ye Huan winked.
"Not eating..."
"Listen to him, eat!" Without waiting for Diana to refuse, Lilithmanded.
Diana had no appetite, couldn''t eat, but upon hearing Lilith''smand, she gritted her teeth and reached for the tray.
Just as her fingers touched the tray...
"ng!"
Ye Huan suddenly smashed the tray to the ground by the door, shattering it, and the food spilled on the ground by the door.
"What are you doing!" Diana felt that Ye Huan was ying her, and she was very angry.
Ye Huan''s lips curled slightly, meaningfully said:
"Your mistress is dead."
"You are inconsble."
"In such a situation, you can still eat?"
Suddenly...
"Ding."
The suite door opened in response...
Chapter 531 - 520: The True Face of the Assassin!
The "female" server holding the iron tray pushed the door open and entered. Upon seeing the mess on the floor near the door, a conspiratorial smile shed in his eyes.
"ng."
After throwing away the iron tray in his hand, he walked straight toward therge bed inside.
"We didn''t call for service. What are you doing here?" Diana, seeing someone barging into the suite without a word and with such a rough demeanor, immediately stepped forward with a stern face, blocking the server''s path.
The server nced at Diana, expressionless and silent.
His movements and demeanor were rigid, and Ye Huan immediately noticed he was wearing a human-skin mask.
"We didn''t call for service. What are you doing here? Get out!" Diana shouted.
The server didn''t answer but looked toward Lilith on the bed, tentatively calling, "Miss Lilith?"
His voice was very rough, clearly a man''s voice, which was why he remained silent earlier.
To avoid revealing himself.
Seeing Lilith not responding at all, that smile in his eyes was no longer hidden.
"You can revive now." Beside him, Ye Huan''s calm voice caused the server to pause.
The next moment, Lilith''s eyes snapped open, ring angrily at the server, who was actually an assassin.
The assassin''s face changed drastically.
He had been tricked!
"Whoosh"
A gust of wind rose, and the assassin''s figure moved to the suite''s doorway with lightning speed.
But someone was even faster!
Ye Huan grabbed the assassin''s left shoulder with one hand, his lips curving up, saying, "Buddy, there''s no need to run, is there? I still need to have a chat with you about the organization behind you."
Just as he finished speaking...
"Crack!" A sound of bone breaking rang out!
The expressionless human-skin mask on the assassin''s face twisted, emitting a piercing wail.
But he quickly recovered, with his left shoulder injured, he reached to his waist with his right hand and pulled out a handgun!
He directly stuffed the muzzle inside his coat, aiming backward, decisively pulling the trigger!
"Bang!"
The bullet exited the chamber, piercing through the assassin''s server outer coat, shooting at Ye Huan!
Ye Huan simply sidestepped, seizing the deadly bullet, while reaching out his right hand to grab the assassin''s hair!
Trying to m the assassin''s head against the wall, only to pull off a wig.
"..."
Before Ye Huan could retort, the assassin found an opportunity andunched a swift kick at Ye Huan.
Ye Huan quickly snapped back, blocking with his right arm in front of him.
"Thud!"
Stopping the assassin''s right leg with his right arm, Ye Huan thrust his left hand outward.
Just as he was about to grab the assassin''s right leg, his left leg suddenly attacked!
Unbeknownst to him, kicking with both legs would expose his greatest w!
Ye Huan seized the moment, delivering a kick!
"Crack..."
The sound of an egg breaking echoed in the suite, even Lilith and Diana, as women, couldn''t help but feel a chill in theirher regions and shivered while covering themselves...
Visibly, the assassin''s face, in just a second, transformed from bewilderment to twisted like a ferocious ghost!
"Ahhh!!!!!!"
"Thud" the assassin fell to the ground clutching his crotch, rolling around in an attempt to alleviate the piercing pain, his harrowing screams resounding throughout the sky.
"Come on, put on another wig for me." Ye Huan kicked the suite door shut, then grabbed the assassin''s short hair, forcefully mming his head against the marble wall...
"Bang!"
The assassin''s head was pounding with blood, feeling his vision go ck, the world spinning,pletely losing the ability to fight.
"Speak, who sent you." Ye Huan lifted the assassin by the neck and tossed him to the ground not far from therge bed.
"Thud" came a muffled sound, as the assassin fell to the ground, holding his head with one hand and his crotch with the other, gritting his teeth.
"Despicable man!" Catching his breath a bit, the assassin angrily yelled, never having thought that even with such caution, he could still fall into a trap meant to lure him out.
"Who''s the despicable man, don''t you have a clue?"
"Giving someone such a drug, and you still dare to call me despicable?"
Ye Huan sneered, the "drug" he mentioned was, of course, the toxin that turned Lilith into a living corpse.
After a coldugh, he reached out and ripped off the human-skin mask from the assassin''s face.
Revealing a Caucasian face.
Westerner.
Ye Huan was curious.
Who is Zeus?
The head of the Twelve Celestial Godsthe King of Gods!
The absolute ruler of the Western Dark World, revered as a deity by the Western nations!
A fellow Westerner daring to assassinate the eldest daughter of the ruler of the West, the Divine King Zeus?
"Kill me."
"I ept my fate!"
The assassin struggled a bit, finally taking a deep breath and saying these words.
As a Yellow-tier assassin of the organization, he had long been prepared to sacrifice himself for the organization.
"Kill you?"
"Rest assured, I will."
"But before that, I have a few questions for you."
Ye Huan extended a finger, asking, "First question, what''s the background of the organization behind you?"
The assassin''s face bore a sneer, "Believe me, you won''t get a bit of information you want from my mouth..."
"Believe me, I have ten thousand ways to pry open your mouth..." Ye Huan interrupted the assassin with a yful tone.
But seeing the assassin''s mouth spreading into a grin, his expression changed immediately.
"Kid, you''re not qualified to pry open my mouth. This time, you forced me..."
The assassin let out three eerie "hehehe"ughs, moving his tongue slightly to reveal a green fang!
Ye Huan reacted swiftly, hurriedly reaching out to grab his upper and lower jaws, trying to stop him, yet he was still a step toote.
The assassin''s jaws had already closed, the green fang pierced into his own oral mucosa and lips, a chillingly cold smile appeared on his face.
Visibly, his body began to inte rapidly, transforming from a thin man to the size of a 300-pound hulking figure in seconds!
Meanwhile, he clung tightly to Ye Huan''s leg, refusing to let go!
He intended to use his body''s explosion to perish together with Ye Huan!
Lilith saw this and her face turned pale, anxiously shouting, "Ye Huan, shake him off!!!"
Shake him off?
Toote.
"Damn it." Ye Huan cursed, stepping forward with both legs, bursting towards the floor-to-ceiling window!
In this process, the assassin did not let go one bit, adopting a posture to perish together with Ye Huan, bursting into wildughter!
Not exchanging for Lilith.
Exchanging for a powerful figure beside Lilith also constituted an outstanding contribution to the organization!
The assassin''s body continued swelling, already expanding to resemble a hot air balloon!
Heughed wildly, yet his expression was one of extreme pain, looking forward to his body exploding earlier, finding relief sooner!
As he wished!
"Crash!"
Ye Huan fiercely crashed through the ss window, bursting into the air, plummeting rapidly from the height of the eighteenth floor!
Seven secondster, as the sound of the assassin''s manicughter dissipated into the night sky...
"Boom!!!"
Chapter 532 - 521: Liliths Assistant, Secret Meeting with Liliths Boyfriend at the Hotel?
In the night sky, a bomb-like explosion resounded, causing many passing pedestrians to stop in their tracks.
How could there be an explosion out of nowhere?
If it wasn''t a bomb, it must be fireworks.
But in the Capital City, setting off fireworks is strictly prohibited. Who would dare to defy thew under the emperor''s nose?
The pedestrians were curious and looked up into the sky.
But instead of fireworks, they were showered with "rain"!
Feeling some liquid sshed all over them, the pedestrians spat disgustedly.
They were all muttering curses in their hearts.
The Ritz-Carlton is one of Huaxia''s only three seven-star hotels, usually housing foreign dignitaries and famed tycoons. How could such wealthy people behave so poorly? Pouring water downwards?
How disgraceful!
Eyes wide open.
The "drip-drip" sound continued incessantly.
The liquid kept falling from above.
But as they clearly saw what was falling, the pedestrians'' eyes widened in horror, and they screamed!
Blood!
It was all blood!
Blood rain!?
Screams filled the air.
Among them, the scream from the top of the Ritz-Carlton was the most piercing.
Lilith rushed to the floor-to-ceiling window, looked down, and saw no sign of Ye Huan. Covering her mouth, her already pale face turned even more ghastly.
She knew Ye Huan didn''t want the assassin''s explosion to affect her, so he dragged the assassin and leapt from the high altitude!
The assassin''s explosion nearly shook the entire building, with Ye Huan at the explosion''s epicenter, now...
Lilith''s face was filled with despair and grief.
Beside her, Diana also understood Ye Huan''s intent and was very moved.
Any previous dissatisfaction with him disappeared like smoke.
With a sigh, Diana took off her coat and draped it over Lilith''s shoulders, consoling her, "Miss, the dead cannote back to life. Please, take heart..."
"Heck with taking heart, can''t you wish me well for once?"
A deeply displeased voice made both Diana and Lilith pause.
Why did this voice sound so familiar?
In the next moment, two hands appeared on the window frame by the floor-to-ceiling window, and a head popped up.
Upon seeing who it was, Diana''s face turned pale, "A ghost?!"
"You''re the one who''s dead. Learn to talk properly," Ye Huan retorted, annoyed, using both hands and feet to leap up.
Then he headed straight for the suite''s bathroom.
After the assassin''s explosion, he''d grabbed onto an outdoor air conditioning unit and climbed up about twenty floors.
The first thing on his mind upon reaching the top was to take a shower!
Ye Huan took off his clothes and threw them all into the trash can.
Covered in blood, how unlucky.
He washed off the blood, using cold water to soothe the pain a bit as well.
The assassin''s explosion was quite powerful, with the force of about 110 pounds of TNT, but still insufficient to kill Ye Huan.
Even as a child, under his dogged master''s "training," he had developed a body as hard as steel, impervious to knives and bullets.
Yet, he was still charred half ck, with a stinging pain.
"This... can it really help me recover?" Lilith sat on the bed, holding a finger-sized vial.
This vial was handed to her by Ye Huan when he emerged from the bathroom wrapped in a bathrobe after cleaning himself.
"Most likely, yes. If not, I''ll personally help you heal."
"In any case, rest assured, with me by your side, nothing will happen to you."
Before the assassin''s explosion, Ye Huan had snatched the two vials hanging around the assassin''s chest.
One of the vials was already empty, with the same smell Ye Huan detected in the meal.
Evidently, this empty vial had contained poison.
The other vial matched one consumed by the yellow-masked man at the concert.
Ye Huan''s intuition told him this vial could reverse Lilith''s bodily aging.
He trusted his instincts and suggested Lilith drink it.
"Miss, maybe we should..." Diana cautiously whispered, "Let''s return west and let Hera treat you..."
Before she could finish, her face turned anxious as Lilith unhesitatingly drank the yellow liquid from the vial.
After burping, Lilith frowned, "It has no taste, not pleasant at all."
"Did you think it was a drink?" Ye Huan rolled his eyes, though his expression was now somewhat serious.
His eyes fixed on Lilith, fearing any adverse reactions.
The following scene made Ye Huan squint, his eyes shining brightly; Diana''s eyes widened in disbelief;
In just a few seconds, Lilith''s age spots on her face and neck vanished rapidly, and the wrinkles fadedyer byyer;
Her skin, once like dried bark, turned fair and smooth, even more tender than before, with ayer of enticing pink;
The nearly skeletal hands and legs, veined like earthworms, regrew flesh, returning to their previously healthy anatomical state;
The deeply sunken eyes returned to normal, with starlight twinkling within them again;
The tangled, split-ended golden hair transformed into a sleek, shiny cascade with a normal volume restored.
Before, she was like a living dead.
Now, she was like a revived soul!
Reborn!
"Really... really restored?!" Diana gasped, covering her mouth, her eyes staring at Lilith filled with shock.
"Recovered?"
Lilith was stunned for a moment, then ecstatic, and quickly ran into the bathroom.
After looking in the mirror in the bathroom, she saw that she not only sessfully returned to her original appearance but also became much more beautiful. Excitedly, Lilith ran out and jumped into Ye Huan''s arms, hugging and kissing him repeatedly.
With kiss after kiss, she turned Ye Huan''s handsome face into a mess.
It''s so dark!
"Okay, don''t get so excited."
"This potion has restored you for now, but it''s possible that once the effects wear off, your body will revert back."
"Then all this excitement would be for nothing."
Ye Huan''s words were like a bucket of cold water poured over Lilith, instantly quelling her excitement.
Lilith looked disappointed, "Will it really revert? I don''t want to be an olddy again."
"It''s just a possibility, but it''s not certain now."
"What we need to do now is wait."
"I estimate the effects of this potion willst about eight hours. If you don''t change back after eight hours, then you''ll have ''eternal youth''."
Ye Huan smiled and said, "Alright, let''s leave it at that. You get some rest now, and I''lle back tomorrow."
"Oh, you''re leaving?" Lilith pouted, "The night is long, a lonely man meets a beautiful woman, we''re like a match seeking a me..."
"Stop, don''t talk nonsense!"
Ye Huan broke out in a cold sweat, what kind of bold words were those? This was too wild!
"Alright, I won''t talk nonsense! But where will you go? You don''t even have clothes, are you going to wrap yourself in a bathrobe and go out? People will think you''re a pervert! Why not stay and keep mepany!" Lilith insisted, wanting Ye Huan to stay with her longer.
Apany her?
If he stayed, who knows what might happen!
Ye Huan didn''t want anything to happen with Lilith, so he hastily made up a lie, "Where I go is none of your concern, but I''m leaving now for your own good. You need a good night''s sleep to absorb the potion''s effects fully, or else you''ll turn into an olddy again with nowhere to cry."
"I..." Lilith was speechless. She really didn''t want to be an olddy again.
If Ye Huan stayed, she''d be too excited to sleep all night.
Turning into an olddy and being disliked by Ye Huan would indeed leave her with nowhere to cry.
She had no choice, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Then promise me you''ll spend a day with me in the Capital City tomorrow."
"Deal!"
Having received ''permission'' to leave, Ye Huan quickly slipped out of the suite, afraid that Lilith might change her mind.
"Miss, just listen to Ye Huan."
"Get some rest and a good night''s sleep to let the potion work its best."
Diana smiled as she helped Lilith lie down, covering her with a quilt. She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, not wanting Lilith to have anything more to do with Ye Huan, since they hadn''t defined their rtionship.
"Alright, Miss, you get some rest. I won''t disturb you," Diana said gently.
"Okay." Lilith nodded obediently.
Diana couldn''t help but show a ''maternal'' expression as she reached out to pinch her cheek.
Blushing, she apologized and then quickly ran outside.
At this moment.
Lilith suddenly spoke up.
"Diana."
Diana looked apologetic, "Miss, I... I didn''t mean to..."
Before she could finish...
"Diana, I want to apologize to you."
"Sorry for making you worry and even cry."
"Also, if you want to pinch my cheeks, go ahead like when we were kids. I don''t mind..."
Lilith said guiltily.
Diana was taken aback, and her nose suddenly tingled as she turned her head slightly and forced a smile, "Miss, you get some rest. I''ll leave now."
"Bang!"
She shut the suite door.
Diana covered her face and cried.
Though Lilith''s words seemed trivial, they touched her deeply.
A few minutester, havingposed herself, Diana took her hands off her face.
At this moment, she noticed a man still standing beside her, and she froze.
"Why are you still here?"
"Walking out like this, I''d definitely get gawkers," Ye Huan said helplessly, "Can you help me buy some clothes?"
Diana wanted to refuse, but then she remembered that Ye Huan ended up in this predicament for saving Lilith. After a moment of hesitation, she nodded and handed over a room card, "You shouldn''t walk around like this. Wait in my room; I''ll go buy them for you."
Ye Huan happily epted it.
"Click!"
Hearing the camera shutter sound, both Ye Huan and Diana''s faces turned cold as they hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound.
The elevator doors hadn''t fully closed yet, and inside there was a blonde paparazzo waving andughing, "Sir and Madam, I wish you a wonderful and joyful evening."
With that, the elevator doors closed.
"Diana, what do we do now?" Ye Huan twitched at the corner of his mouth, feeling a wave of exasperation. If this paparazzo published those photos, he''d be doomed.
"Nothing!"
"Just wait in the room!"
Diana furiously left.
Rumors of Lilith''s possible romance, suggesting her partner was her pole dance male apaniment during her concert in Huaxia, already spread through Western media.
If this news broke out: "Shocking! Lilith''s assistant Diana secretly meets Lilith''s boyfriend in a high-ss hotel..."
The consequences would be unimaginable; the whole world would explode!
But now, there''s no good way to handle this!
The paparazzo had already escaped, so they had to let it go for now!
Chapter 533 - 522: This Beloved, Not That Beloved!
"What exactly is your rtionship with Lilith?"
At the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Suite No. 2, Ye Huan was buttoning his shirt.
Diana moved quickly and bought a suit within ten minutes.
Ye Huan disliked wearing suits, but at this moment, he had no choice and had to make do.
"Assistant," Diana said inly. She sat on the suite''s sofa, holding a goblet, gazing at the night view outside, but secretly peeking at Ye Huan.
She was thirty-nine years old, at the age where she fancied younger men.
Ye Huan was handsome and well-built, aligning perfectly with her tastes.
She felt a stirring in her heart.
"Forget it if you don''t want to say."
Ye Huan finished buttoning his shirt and started putting on his jacket.
He could tell that Diana''s moment of breaking down and crying earlier was genuine.
If it was a simple assistant rtionship, such emotions wouldn''t be possible.
However, he merely asked out of curiosity, and since the other party didn''t want to borate, he didn''t intend to press further.
"Thanks for the clothes. I''ll find a chance to pay you back," Ye Huan said, waving his hand as he left.
As he reached the door,
Diana, still gazing at the night sky, suddenly spoke, causing Ye Huan to halt.
"Leave Lilith. You know her status is too high."
"Unless you are truly the God of ughter, you cannot marry her."
Indeed, Diana still doubted that Ye Huan was the God of ughter.
If Ye Huan was the God of ughter, then wouldn''t Zeus be sending the person he hated the most to protect his daughter?
You have to understand, the reason why Zeus hated Ye Huan was because Ye Huan took Lilith. If he had Ye Huan protecting Lilith, wouldn''t it be like sending a wolf to guard the sheep?
Impossible.
Thinking this, Diana was firm in her belief.
Ye Huan couldn''t possibly be the God of ughter.
"What do you want to say? Just say it directly," Ye Huan sensed hidden meanings in Diana''s words.
Diana took a deep breath and said, "If you refuse to leave her, you''ll end up getting hurt badly."
She paused, with a blush inexplicably appearing on her face, but her voice pretended to be low, "If Lilith makes you ufortable all over, I consider myself not bad looking and wouldn''t mind apanying you these few days. The premise is that you promise not to have anything further with Lilith."
"Miss Diana, are you really thinking for Lilith, or for yourself?"
"If you are thinking for yourself, there''s no need for so many twists and turns."
"Here''s my phone number. If you''re thinking for yourself, feel free to call me anytime, I''d be happy to apany you."
Ye Huan said meaningfully, throwing a paper ball behind him as he walked out of the suite.
The paper ballnded urately in Diana''s hand, making her blush furiously.
Indeed, she was thinking for herself.
As Lilith''s assistant, from birth until now, she had never had a boyfriend, nor had she experienced such matters.
Ye Huan''s physique, revealed when he changed earlier, matched her aesthetic perfectly, stirring her heart.
But to ask her to actively call Ye Huan, she couldn''t do it
Meanwhile, Ye Huan walked out of the hotel.
He was about to head to the parking lot.
A Hongqi sedan with the te "Military A-00005" stopped in front of Ye Huan.
"Get in."
The male voice from the car was deep.
Ye Huan was just worrying about having nowhere to go, so he opened the front passenger door and got in.
"Those five women who neglected their duties, I''ve already had them executed."
Ye Huan had just fastened his seat belt when he heard Ye Tiance''s words and immediately eximed, "Damn! Are you serious? You can''t just execute them like that! Besides, those five didn''t neglect their duties"
"How is Lilith?" Ye Tiance interrupted Ye Huan, smirking.
He had been fooled.
Ye Huan''s face was dark, "Didn''t your people already tell you?"
Ye Tiance chuckled, unconcerned: "I don''t believe anyone could assassinate someone protected by you, the God of ughter. There must be a reason you yelled at the five girls I sent, right?"
"Yes, to mislead the assassins," Ye Huan replied.
"Make a special tripter to apologize to those five girls."
"Their mental resilience isn''t strong, and they''re ming themselves because of this."
"If I hadn''t stopped them, they might have really killed themselves."
Ye Tiance''s words made Ye Huan feel quite embarrassed.
"I''ll find some time to apologize to them. Before that, you''d better keep a close watch on them and not let them do anything rash," Ye Huan advised.
"Don''t worry, they''re very dear to me, I couldn''t bear to"
"Do you know about Lilu?" Before Ye Tiance could finish, Ye Huan interrupted.
"This dear one and that dear one aren''t the same!"
Ye Tiance''s face turned dark.
Ye Huan was just joking. Heughed and brought the topic back, curiously asking, "Did youe here specifically to pick me up and take me somewhere?"
"To the wedding house your mother has prepared for you."
Chapter 534 - 523: Huang Family in the Capital City
Capital City, Huang Family Mansion.
The night sky was very clear, yet a thickyer of dark clouds hovered over the Huang Family Mansion, suffocating those beneath it.
"Bang!"
"Thud! Thud! Thud!"
The middle-aged man fiercely flung his phone to the ground and then raised the cane in his hand, smashing it forcefully onto the phone screen!
In no time, the phone was smashed into pieces!
"Dad, what is it this time?" Beside him, a woman exuding an extremely pungent perfume scent, with her face heavily painted with rouge, held the middle-aged man as she frowned and asked.
The middle-aged man was the patriarch of the Huang FamilyHuang Shn.
The woman next to him was his daughterHuang Yan.
Beside Huang Yan was her husband, Su Zhiqiang.
"It''s that Ye Huan brat again! Information hase that Guan Caiban, whom I nted in Celestial Sea, has been thrown in jail by that brat and is about to be executed! Furthermore..."
Huang Shn became furious at this point: "That damned Guan Caiban dared to, without my permission, start a morphine business using the helpers I assigned to him. If the Celestial Sea police trace it back to us, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Beside him, Su Zhiqiang and Huang Yan both turned pale.
Huaxia strictly prohibits drugs, imposing the harshest penalties worldwide. Anyone involved in drug trafficking faces at least a death penalty, with the possibility of being executed a hundred times, and will be strongly condemned by all sectors of society.
Though the Huang Family had no direct connection to Guan Caiban''s morphine, if the Celestial Sea police followed the trail to the Huang Family, they would face immense trouble and public outcry, possibly losing everything.
But Su Zhiqiang keenly picked up on a key piece of information.
He knew Ye Huan.
But what else?
When Su Zhiqiang received a call from his father-inw at the First People''s Hospital of Celestial Sea City informing him of his brother-inw Huang Zhiwen''s death, he rushed back to the Capital City.
Just five minutes ago, Huang Shn was still gloomily talking on the phone, and Su Zhiqiang stood silently beside him.
But hearing Ye Huan''s name and the word "again" made Su Zhiqiang think of many things.
"Dad, could it be that Ye Huan is the one who killed Zhiwen?" Su Zhiqiang tentatively asked.
"Ye Huan not only killed Zhiwen, but also orchestrated the capture of the Great Huang Gang by the Special Service Bureau, and now even the insider I nted in Celestial Sea has been eliminated by this kid!"
Huang Shn''s blood pressure surged at this, nearly causing a stroke.
He staggered a couple of times, about to copse, when Su Zhiqiang quickly supported him and pulled a chair over for him to sit on.
Huang Shn sat on the chair, gasping heavily, his face still full of anger.
He had never been this furious in his life!
Every call he received today seemed to raise his anger level by several degrees!
The first call brought him the heartbreaking news of his eldest son Huang Zhiwen''s death, making him hate the murderer immensely, vowing to avenge him!
The second call informed him of the Special Service Bureau''s eradication of the Great Huang Gang, which the Huang Family had painstakingly cultivated in the shadows for over twenty years.
This news made his heart ache; it was the Huang Family''s private force secretly nurtured with huge investments exceeding one hundred million yuan annually!
And the result? It waspletely wiped out by the Special Service Bureau!
Five hundred people, either dead or injured!
The gang leader, Hui Shoutao, was even turned into an imbecile during the resistance!
Money wasted!
The third call informed him of Guan Caiban''s arrest by the Celestial Sea police.
Moreover, the police seized over fifty bags of morphine from Guan Caiban!
This news not only enraged Huang Shn but also filled him with dread.
The Huang Family is "temporarily" innocent, but if the Celestial Sea police traced it to the Huang Family and uncovered some of its current secrets, the consequences would be unimaginable!
"Damn it, damn it, I want Ye Huan dead!!!" The more Huang Shn thought, the angrier he became, letting out an enraged roar.
"Dad, why don''t I contact some assassins overseas to have that brat..." Huang Yan said coldly, making a throat-slitting gesture.
"No way!"
Suddenly, Su Zhiqiang shouted.
Huang Shn and Huang Yan immediately looked displeased, "Why not?"
"Dad, listen to me."
After taking a deep breath, Su Zhiqiang recounted everything that had happened recently in the Capital City and Celestial Sea rted to Ye Huan.
He emphasized how Nan Zhen was brought down but the Nan Family chose to endure silently, and how Ye Qiqing seemed interested in Ye Huan, intending to caution his father-inw and wife not to act rashly.
After hearing this, Huang Shn and Huang Yan''s expressions fluctuated.
No wonder the Nan Family chose to endure silently despite their third young master Nan Zhen being brought down.
This kid really has skills, to even capture Ye Qiqing''s heart.
However, this exnation makes sense.
This kid could have contacted the Special Service Bureau to ambush under the Haitian Garden District building on the Second Ring Road in what seemed to be seeking Ye Qiqing''s help.
Ye Qiqing then likely sought her father Ye Tiance''s assistance, leading to the Special Service Bureau''s sessful ambush and theplete annihtion of the Great Huang Gang.
What a predicament...
This kid is not easy to deal with!
The Huang Family can''t afford to endure the wrath of Ye Qiqing and the Ye Family.
Huang Shn''s hand, gripping the cane, trembled incessantly, and after about two minutes, he exhaled deeply, ovee with sorrow: "Never mind anything else, Zhiwen was murdered, how could I swallow this bitterness..."
"Dad, don''t worry about this matter!"
"In a month, that kid will definitely die!"
Hearing this, Huang Shn was stunned and hurriedly asked: "What do you mean by that?"
Chapter 535 - 524: Honest Man Digging Up Your Ancestral Grave!
"In one month, the eldest son of the Nan Family, Nan Rui, is going to marry the young daughter of the Qin Family of Dragon Gate. Are you aware of this?"
"This matter has been causing quite a stir in the Capital City, so of course I''ve heard about it."
"Dad, to be frank, the Nan Family ns to eliminate Ye Huan after establishing this powerful alliance with the Qin Family."
A sinister smile appeared on Su Zhiqiang''s face.
Huang Shng pondered for a moment and then nodded.
Indeed, the Nan Family currentlycks the resources to contend with the Ye and Li Families.
But aligning with the Qin Family changes everythingpletely.
By then, the Nan Family will be a top-tier family, perhaps even a super family.
Though they still wouldn''t be able to confront the Ye and Li Families head-on, at that time, the Ye and Li Families would not turn against the Nan and Qin Families just because a man their own granddaughter is fond of was killedsuch a scenario is unrealistic.
After all, while the Nan Family might not matter much, the Qin Family represents Dragon Gate!
Who in Huaxia dares to challenge Dragon Gate? No one dares, and no one has the capability!
It''s just...
s!
The gap between people is just so vast!
The Nan Family is about to marry into the Qin Family and rise to prominence in one fell swoop!
And the Huang Family? Not only have they made no progress over the years, but today they also suffered a tremendous loss.
The Da Huang Gang has been wiped out.
The insider nted in Celestial Sea was removed, and it might even involve the Huang Family itself.
The eldest son is dead too.
Huang Shng felt utterly unwilling, as if he aged ten years in a split second, sighing, "Is my Huang Family destined to decline..."
"Who says so!"
"Dad, as long as I''m here, the Huang Family will certainly prosper!"
Su Zhiqiang pounded his chest, speaking with a resounding voice.
"You?" Huang Shng sneered, "When I let you marry Yan Yan, it was because you have a sister who is the secretary to the chair of the Li Corporation, yet neither you nor your sister has brought any benefits to the Huang Family. Besides, how can someone with no ability like a live-in son-inw help the Huang Family prosper?"
Su Zhiqiang was embarrassed. When he first arrived in the Capital City and met Huang Yan, he pursued her passionately.
Unfortunately, he was a man of no status or position, so neither Huang Yan nor the Huang Family paid any attention to him.
But everything changed dramatically when Su Qingqing arrived in the Capital City and found him.
The Huang Family and Huang Yan greeted him with smiles and made him a live-in son-inw of the Huang Family.
He also understood that the reason the Huang Family epted him was to use him as a bridge, leveraging his sister Su Qingqing, the secretary to the chair of the Li Corporation, to bring some projects from the Li Corporation to the Huang Family.
After all, the Li Corporation was massive, with countless projects, and just granting a few ordinary projects could profit the Huang Family immensely.
But despite numerous subtle and explicit hints over the past few months for Su Qingqing to allocate some of the Li Corporation''s projects to the Huang Family, she had sternly refused each time, stating that the Huang Familycked qualifications and she could not abuse her authority.
Failing to secure any projects from the Li Corporation, Su Zhiqiang''s status within the Huang Family plummeted dramatically, enduring disdain and eating only leftover scraps.
Su Zhiqiang harbored a constant simmering resentment.
Today, he intended to hold his head high!
In the future, he wanted to stand tall within the Huang Family!
Because he now possessed the leverage that would earn him respect from the Huang Familythe Nan Family!
"Dad, I know you disapprove of me."
"I understand my sister''s personality, and I truly couldn''t persuade her to give me projects."
"But..."
Su Zhiqiang cleared his throat and said solemnly, "I can get the Huang Family aboard the Nan Family''s fast track to sess!"
Huang Shng''s expression of displeasure instantly transformed into immense joy!
His voice trembled with excitement as he said, "Zhiqiang, my good son-inw, what did you just say?"
"I said I could bring the Huang Family onto the Nan Family''s fast track to sess!" Su Zhiqiang dered proudly, "You might not believe it, but Nan Zhen and I are already sworn brothers."
"What!?" Huang Shng eximed with delight, "Are you serious?"
Su Zhiqiang nodded and said, "Dad, I have something to say, which you might not want to hear."
"Go ahead, I won''t be angry!" Huang Shng said magnanimously.
"Alright."
"What I want to say is that my brother-inw, Zhiwen, didn''t die in vain. He gave the Huang Family an opportunity to ascend to great heights alongside the Nan Family."
"Dad, let me put it this way, to get onto this fast track with the Nan Family, having the rtionship between me and Brother Zhen is not enough."
"Our Huang Family also needs to do one thing, and that is topletely destroy Ye Huan, both openly and in secret! Zhiwen was killed by Ye Huan, so targeting Ye Huan is only natural and wouldn''t seem intentional."
"With Nan Zhen humiliated, the Nan Family, like us, utterly hates Ye Huan. By then, not only will they not see our actions against Ye Huan as trying to tter them, but instead will have a ''misery lovespany'' sentiment, thus closing the gap between our two families."
"Going forward, as long as we im arger part of the credit in avenging Ye Huan, the Huang Family will win the favor of the Nan Family;bining this with my brotherhood with Brother Zhen, the Huang Family will inevitably ride the momentum of the Nan-Qin marriage alliance to rise at once!"
"Bing a first-rate family is not a problem!"
As Su Zhiqiang spoke further, the ambition in his words grew even more intense!
"Good!"
Huang Shng jumped up excitedly, pping his hands repeatedly.
The first-tier family, the Zhong Family, was destroyed by the Crown Prince, leaving a vacant position. He dreamed of the Huang Family bing the new first-tier family!
Now there''s this hope, and he''s beyond excited. After pping, he held Su Zhiqiang''s hand with a face full of "gratitude," and said, "Zhiqiang, I knew marrying Yan Yan to you was the right choice."
Su Zhiqiang felt a wave of disdain in his heart, but was very satisfied with Huang Shng''s reaction. He loved seeing his prestigious father-inw, Huang Shng, go against his own beliefs and fawn over him.
After a while, he continued:
"Dad, to put it simply."
"The more ruthlessly we deal with Ye Huan, openly and secretly, the more benefits we gain."
"But until the veryst day, which is the day of the Nan-Qin marriage alliance, we can''t be too ruthless, otherwise, it wouldn''t be good to provoke Ye Qiqing."
"Good!" Huang Shng nodded solemnly and fiercely said, "Then let''s start off light. In a month, on the day of the Nan-Qin marriage alliance, that''s the day we finish him off, the day he dies. I''ll personally kill him to avenge Zhiwen!"
Su Zhiqiang was already mourning for Ye Huan in his heart.
Of all people to offend, he chose to offend the Nan Family and Su Zhiqiang himself.
He really was courting death.
Who is Nan Zhen? In a month, the Nan Family will ally with the Qin Family from Dragon Gate, and by then he will be the third young master of a top-tier, possibly even super-tier, family!
Who is Su Zhiqiang?
The Prince Consort of a newly first-tier family, the follower of a top-tier or even super-tier family''s third young master!
You couldn''t get more awesome!
The future looks bright!
Ye Huan? He''s just a kept man.
Now he''s just riding high on Ye Qiqing''s coattails.
In a month, he can be wiped out with a snap of the fingers.
In a month, on the wedding day of the Nan-Qin marriage alliance.
The Nan Family Mansion will be the ce where Ye Huan meets his doom!
"Ring ring ring."
Su Zhiqiang was dreaming about the wonderful future when the phone''s ringtone interrupted him.
Originally very displeased, he took out his phone and upon seeing the caller, his face suddenly turned fawning.
He answered the call.
"Hello? Brother Zhen? You''re back in the Capital City?"
"Want me to take you out for a walk?"
"Oh good, I''ll be right over!"
Su Zhiqiang smiled fawningly and hung up the phone.
Next to him, Huang Shng, with a sneaky look, tentatively asked, "Zhiqiang, was it Young Master Nan Zhen who called you?"
"Yes, Brother Zhen was crippled by Ye Huan, can''t walk, and wants me to take him out for a walk."
"Oh my, my good son-inw, what are you waiting for, go quickly, don''t keep Young Master Nan Zhen waiting!"
"Alright, I''ll head over now."
Su Zhiqiang, with a beaming face, straightened his cor and left the Huang Family mansion.
Watching his departing figure, Huang Yan eximed, "Dad, Su Zhiqiang really is lucky, to be able totch onto someone as powerful as Nan Zhen."
"Yes."
"But because of this, Yan Yan, you must be careful, concerning your matters...especially the child in your belly, it absolutely cannot be discovered by that fool Su Zhiqiang."
"Otherwise, our Huang Family might miss out on a great opportunity for development, and even offend Nan''s third young master''s brothers, leading to a disaster."
Huang Shng warned.
"Don''t worry, Dad, after today, I''ll delete all the information of the men I''ve had dates with."
"As for the child in my belly..."
"An abortion is harmful, and there''s no need. Su Zhiqiang is an honest man, I''ll just get him so drunk he passes out tomorrow."
"When he wakes up the day after, I''ll just say I''m pregnant, he''ll surely be overjoyed."
Huang Yan, with a mischievous face, spoke these incredibly outrageous words.
Huang Shng also broke out in a cold sweat; having such a daughter really was a sin.
But still.
An abortion not only harms the body but is also easily detected, after all, test reports and surgery records remain in the hospital.
Huang Yan''s strategy was actually quite good.
Su Zhiqiang is an honest person.
He won''t find out the child isn''t his.
If Su Zhiqiang knew his father-inw and wife had such thoughts, he''d surely be so furious he''d drop dead on the spot.
Did an honest man offend your ancestors in a past life to be bullied like this!?
Chapter 536 - 525 Golden Shore
Capital City, Golden Shore vi area.
"What, your brother-inw got killed by Ye Huan? Really!?"
In an A-rank vi at Golden Shore, Nan Zhen''s eyes widened upon hearing the news of Huang Zhiwen''s death.
"Yes, Brother Zhen, our Huang Family now absolutely hates Ye Huan."
"Can''t wait to put him to death."
"Zhiwen got executed just for having a verbal conflict with him, this kid is simply too detestable."
Su Zhiqiang, looking "grieved," used Ye Huan of his "crimes."
"Ah!" With a sigh, Nan Zhenforted:
"Zhiqiang, ept my condolences."
"Our Nan Family also hates Ye Huan, but currently, we indeed can''t get rid of that kid."
"However, it''s only temporary. After a month, once the Nan and Qin families sessfully arrange a marriage, that kid will be dead for sure."
Upon hearing this, Su Zhiqiang felt joy in his heart, as he realized Nan Zhen was feeling "sympathy in adversity."
With this, the Huang and Nan families can unite in enmity, seeking revenge on Ye Huan at the Nan-Qin arranged marriage ceremony in a month''s time.
The rtionship between the two families would naturally draw closer.
"No..."
"Zhiqiang, make a call to my brother."
"Tell him about Huang Zhiwen''s death."
Suddenly furrowing his brow on his wheelchair, Nan Zhen remembered that Huang Zhiwen was a follower of his brother, Nan Rui, often helping him with tasks.
Huang Zhiwen''s sudden trip to Celestial Sea might have been to assist Nan Rui!
Sure enough...
"Bang!"
Nan Rui suddenly grew furious upon receiving news of Huang Zhiwen''s death, smashing his phone in rage.
Huang Zhiwen? Nan Rui considered him merely a diligent henchman.
Normally, if he offended someone and got killed, Nan Rui wouldn''t blink an eye.
But this time was different!
Huang Zhiwen went to Celestial Sea to help Nan Rui, specifically to spy on the Qin Family''s young daughter''s appearance!
Getting killed while on task was like disrespecting Nan Rui, directly pping his face soundly!
"Ye Huan, it''s you again, you damn thing!"
"Isn''t crippling my brother enough, now you want to p my face!?"
"In a month, after I be the Qin Family''s son-inw of Dragon Gate, I''ll make sure you have nowhere to rest in peace!"
"Neither the Ye nor Li Family can save you!"
Nan Rui roared furiously, his mood so foul that he even lost interest in the influencer next to the bed, kicking her off.
But there was no choice; he had to swallow his anger!
Even if he wanted to kill Ye Huan again, he''d have to wait a month!
A monthter, Ye Huan''s death would be inevitable!
...
"Geez, Ye Huan is so arrogant because Ye Qiqing backs him, daring to provoke anyone, it''s ridiculous."
Nan Zhen was merely guessing Huang Zhiwen went to Celestial Sea to assist Nan Rui.
Who knew the spection would turn true?
Ye Huan killing Huang Zhiwen was almost like pping Nan Rui in the face.
"Brother Zhen, Ye Huan this kid is too infuriating, he must be finished... You must make him suffer a fate worse than death! Also, Brother Zhen, I want to ask you a favor, in seeking revenge against Ye Huan, make sure our Huang Family contributes as well." beside him, Su Zhiqiang angrily said, "Our Huang Family absolutely hates Ye Huan, we wish to cut him into pieces."
"Zhiqiang, rest assured, Brother Zhen promises you."
"Once I disable Ye Huan, leaving him half-dead, I''ll hand him over to your Huang Family."
"By then, you can do whatever you like with him, whether it''s cutting him into pieces or any other way!"
Nan Zhen, as the "victim," was very sympathetic to the Huang Family''s plight, speaking with resolute words; if his hands could move, he''d have pounded his chest in assurance.
Huang Zhiwen felt secretly pleased, knowing the rtionships were closer, making it easier to seek benefits from the Nan Family in the future.
He pretended to be grateful and tearful, saying, "Thank you, Brother Zhen."
"Between us brothers, there''s no need for thanks. Enough about this ill-fated matter, let''s go out and let me have some fresh air." Nan Zhen said.
"Alright."
...
Golden Shore is one of the most luxurious and also the most expensive vi areas in the Capital City, nestled against mountains with water nearby and fresh air.
The housing prices here far exceed market standards; even the worst-located vis in the area are priced at 888,888 per square meter, with an area of at least 700 square meters.
That is to say, the smallest, most remote, least noticeable vi in Golden Shore costs as much as 600 million Huaxia Coin.
Such steep prices make Golden Shore an exclusive residential zone for the wealthy, with even second-generation rich kids from first-tier and second-tier families in the Capital City proud to own a property here, able to boast for quite a while.
Golden Shore''s vis are divided into four grades based on location and overall quality, ranging from SSS, S, A, to B.
The viplex was built centered around the one and only SSS-grade viTingxiang Pavilion. If being the SSS-grade "Tingxiang Pavilion" vi is likened to a pce, then all other vis are anciry halls!
Yet throughout the years, Tingxiang Pavilion has remained vacant, with no one residing in it.
Because... it''s truly too expensive!
Tingxiang Pavilion covers an area of 2,500 square meters, priced at 1,888,888 per square meter!
One vi, nearly 4.8 billion!
Those yboys of the Capital City all wanted to buy Tingxiang Pavilion.
But without exception, their families wouldn''t permit it!
They may have the money, but it doesn''t mean they''re willing to spend it foolishly.
Tingxiang Pavilion is too big, 2,500 square meters.
This size is sufficient to house hundreds of people; to spend 4.8 billion to let a few youngsters live alone or with a few others is simply foolish.
Those without money dream of buying it.
Those with money don''t want to spend it foolishly.
This has resulted in Tingxiang Pavilion being long ignored.
But today, this ''huge foolish'' vi was casually purchased by someone!
Full payment!
Golden Shore, Tingxiang Pavilion.
"Don''t despise it, it''s prepared as a marital home for you and Tianyun."
Main hall
No.
In the hall, on a sofa made of pure Huanghuali wood, Li Luo elegantly crossed her legs, sipping a cup of tea.
Despise
Ye Huan looked around and frowned.
He wasn''t despising; he just felt the ce was indeed toorge.
"No need to buy such a big house, refund it." After assessing the living room for about two minutes, Ye Huan said.
"No refund, just this one."
"I''ve considered it for a long time, assessed those worth 20 billion, 10 billion, and even 1 or 2 billion."
"Consideringprehensively, this ce is most suitable, the size is just right."
Li Luo surveyed the hall with satisfaction.
Such arge vi contains as many as fifty to sixty rooms.
Besides the current treasured daughters-inw, even if "expanded" to ten more, they could still be amodated!
Even if each had two children, they could still be amodated!
The more Li Luo thought, the more satisfied she became, nodding continuously, she mentally praised her discerning eye for choosing the house.
Size just right?
Ye Huan felt a bit bewildered by Li Luo''s logic.
How is this size just right? It''s enough for a small military base!
"Such a big house, it''s spooky to live in." Ye Huan said with annoyance.
"Spit, stop saying such inauspicious things."
"Anyway, don''t worry. Now you think it''s big, butter you might find it cramped; then you''ll see how keen mom''s eye for choosing the house is."
Li Luo''s eyes showed a hint of yfulness as she joked, "After all, if the house is bought small, ''they'' won''t fit."
Chapter 537 - 526: Killing the chicken to warn the monkey!
"You''re overthinking it. I have nothing to do with ''them,''" Ye Huan said exasperatedly, knowing that when Li Luo referred to ''them,'' she meant Lilith and Zhang Huimin.
"No connection now, but there might be in the future."
"Anyway, here''s some good news for you. When I spoke with Tianyun on the phone today, she said she''s willing to share you with other women."
"With such a beautiful and understanding wife, you''d be smiling to yourself."
Li Luo snorted, clearly in a good mood.
Smiling to himself?
Ye Huan wasn''t smiling at all, feeling internally frustrated.
He noticed a problem. It seemed like many women, Li Luo included, thought of him as some kind of stud!
Since returning to Huaxia, he had turned over a new leaf, hadn''t he?
Seriously!
Ye Huan even wondered if someone had told Li Luo about his ''glorious exploits'' overseas.
Ridiculous.
After a moment of internal grumbling,
"Snap."
"What are you doing?" Seeing Li Luo take out a card from her purse and toss it on the coffee table in front of him, Ye Huan asked, his face darkening.
Li Luo pouted and said, "This is the vi''s room card. Tomorrow morning, you go to Celestial Sea to pick up my darling daughter-inw. I''ve already hired a movingpany, and the furniture I ordered for you will be delivered first thing in the morning."
Good gracious.
Act now, askter, huh.
Ye Huan frowned tightly, then after a moment of contemtion, rxed and epted the card.
He had initially refused to move to the Capital City because he was determined to divorce Liu Tianyun and didn''t want Liu Tianyun and Li Luo to be closer.
Now? He figured he''d likely be entangled with Liu Tianyun for a lifetime, and Li Luo had made up her mind about epting her as a daughter-inw.
Moving to the Capital City wouldn''t make much of a difference.
"Xiao Huai, Tianyun needs to focus on her career, and you have your own things to do. Tomorrow I''ll also move over to help you manage the house and cook for you."
epting the room card indicated that Ye Huan was willing to move to the Capital City, which delighted Li Luo.
Li Luo''s greatest hope was for Ye Huan to move to the Capital City so she could make up for the over twenty years of neglect.
She spoke, her eyes darting with a hint of ambiguity, "You and Tianyun have reallye together through trials. Have you started considering having kids? It''s okay if you don''t have time to take care of them; Mom has time."
Ye Huan''s lips twitched as he replied, "Isn''t it too early?"
"Too early?" Li Luo was stunned, then after some thought, her voice grew slightly more thoughtful, "It is a bit early, considering you''ve got your marriage license but haven''t had the wedding yet..."
Saying this, as if something urred to her, her eyes shed with a sharp glint as she hinted, "But that''s not a problem. Just in time, a monthter, your grandfather has prepared for you..."
Before finishing, she sensed a stern nce toward her and abruptly stopped.
Usually, Ye Tiance was henpecked, and family matters were left to Li Luo.
But when it came to major decisions, Li Luo deferred to Ye Tiance.
"Alright."
"Ye Huan, you should stay here tonight. It''s gettingte. Your mom and I should head back."
On the side, Ye Tiance, who had been silent since entering, spoke up, gulping thest of his tea before standing, "Remember to find time to apologize to those five girls."
"Tomorrow then, I''ll apologize to them tomorrow."
"Alright, call me when you do."
With that, Ye Tiance left the vi with Li Luo.
"Bang."
The front door closed.
Ye Huan gazed at the closed door, lost in thought.
Ye Tiance''s urgency in stopping Li Luo, not wanting her to continue speaking, undoubtedly meant he didn''t want Ye Huan to learn something.
"Just in time, in a month, your grandfather has prepared for you..."
Grandfather, that would be Li Hentian.
Prepared... prepared what?
That old fellow, is he plotting something again?
Ye Huan''s eyes gradually narrowed, recalling the unpleasant conversation with Li Hentian at Ye''s Clubhouse.
Especially since Li Hentian wanted him to form a union with Dragon Gate, by assigning him a fiance from the Qin Family of Dragon Gate.
This matter left Ye Huan very displeased, and he naturally couldn''t agree.
But what really irked Ye Huan was something else!
Li Hentian actually demanded he write an ''apology letter for breaching the marriage contract'' to the eldestdy of the Di Family of Dragon Gate.
Recalling this, Ye Huan''s mood soured considerably, and a sharp glint shed in his eyes.
If Li Hentian ns to manipte him...
Ye Huan wouldn''t sit idly by!
...
"I just took the opportunity to bring up that matter so he''d be more receptive. Why didn''t you let me say it?"
"Did you forget what Dad said? No matter what, we can''t let Ye Huan know about it?"
"Can we really not tell him anything?" In the red sedan, Li Luo was silent for a long time before asking, her face a bit uneasy.
"I want to tell him too, and I really oppose our dad''s n."
"After all, in this matter, Ye Huan is the one being manipted."
"Moreover, besides being our son, Ye Huan is also known in the Western Dark World as one of the Thirteen Celestial Gods, the God of ughter."
"A strong figure of this level would certainly feel furious and resentful about others controlling his fate and scheming against him."
"Moreover, he''s already reluctant about recognizing his roots and returning. If he finds out he''s being ''manipted,'' he might fall out with both the Ye and Li families. It''s not impossible."
Ye Tiance''s face looked grim, yet he sighed helplessly, "But you know your father''s temperament. Once he decides on something, there''s no stopping him, not even with ten oxen."
"Yes..." Li Luo was also quite helpless.
She knew very well her father, Li Hentian''s, strong-willed and stubborn nature, impervious to persuasion.
Li Luo looked troubled, sighing, "What to do now? After finally getting our son back, I don''t want him to hate us."
"Don''t be so pessimistic. At least the situation isn''t all bad. ording to my father-inw, the youngdy of the Qin Family already met Ye Huan in Celestial Sea." Ye Tiance patted Li Luo''s shoulder, offering somefort.
Knitting her eyebrows, Li Luo slowly asked, "I''m curious about one thing. How can Dad be so sure that with a fake marriage alliance between the Qin Family and the Nan Family, Ye Huan and the youngdy from the Qin Family will end up together?"
"That''s not something we need to consider. Dad has his ways."
Ye Tiance started the car, "Let''s not overthink it. Leave it to Dad to handle. However, you should get ready to prepare the wedding house and some red bridal veils. Regardless, the youngdy of the Qin Family and ''them'' will be marrying into our family in a month. We can''t treat them unfairly."
Li Luo sighed, nodding, "For now, it''s all we can do."
As she spoke, as if something came to mind, her eyes turned cold, "You''re aware, aren''t you, that the Nan Family and the Huang Family have always been hostile toward Dabao, even attempting to harm him numerous times?"
"I''m aware."
"But don''t rush to retaliate against them. Wait a month."
"The central government has drafted a document."
"Regarding the removal of local tyrants and hooligans who abuse family power to do evil."
"The Nan Family and the Huang Family are included."
"As my father-inw said, on the day when the Ye and Li families and the Qin Family unite in marriage a month from now..."
"In the Nan Family courtyard, with these two families..."
"We''ll make a grim example!"
Chapter 538 - 527: Only the Crown Prince deserves to live here!
"Whoa, has Tingxiang Pavilion been bought?"
In front of the iron gate of the SSS-grade vi, Tingxiang Pavilion, at Golden Shore, Nan Zhen and Su Zhiqiang were dumbfounded.
They were originally taking a breath of fresh air in the neighborhood and just stumbled upon Tingxiang Pavilion, seeing it brightly lit, they were instantly puzzled.
"Brother Zhen, this can''t be right? This vi is priced at 4.8 billion, and it''s sorge, buying it is like throwing money into the wind," Su Zhiqiang couldn''t quite believe what he was seeing.
The Tingxiang Pavilion covers a whopping 2,500 square meters.
It''s enough to amodate over a hundred people!
If it were said that this was purchased by some family for use as their headquarters, that would make some sense.
But in Capital City, whether first, second, or third-tier, or even lower-tier families, they would all build arge mansion with family characteristics for the headquarters instead of buying someone else''s property.
After all, if the family headquarterscks family features, then what is it?
Since it''s not a family purchase, it must be an individual.
But which nouveau riche would spend 4.8 billion to purchase such arge vi that can house a hundred people?
It''s so unreal, such a waste!
"Whoa, Zhiqiang, help me wipe my eyes." Nan Zhen couldn''t believe what he was seeing.
After Su Zhiqiang helped him wipe his eyes, he eximed "Whoa" again.
It''s real!
Tingxiang Pavilion has really been purchased!
Nan Zhen was sweating.
Golden Shore, known as a prestigious residential area for the high society of the Capital City, owning a property here is a source of pride for many wealthy scions and entrepreneurs. The top-tier SSS-grade viTingxiang Pavilion has always been an unattainable treasure for many.
Because it''s just so expensive and so vast.
And for such arge vi, housing one or two people is an absolute waste!
Therefore, buying this vi merely demonstrates immense financial power, causing a stir in the Capital City, beingbeled as a wealthy bigwig who unts wealth, with no other use.
As for spending 4.8 billion just to show off in front of others
No first or second-tier family would allow their children to squander money like this.
Nan Zhen once wanted to squander money and buy Tingxiang Pavilion, bing an admired bigwig in the entire Capital City, but he was scared off by the stick in Nan Zhan''s hand, settling instead for an A-grade vi in Golden Shore that was neither too good nor too bad.
But even an A-grade vi costs around a billion, not something everyone can afford.
After purchasing an A-grade vi at Golden Shore, Nan Zhen incited a wave of envy among many yboys, gaining face in the high society circle of the Capital City for quite a while.
If an A-grade vi is like this, not to mention the Tingxiang Pavilion, which is tens of times more impressive. If news of Tingxiang Pavilion being bought spreads, the high society circle of the Capital City would be in an uproar!
Looking at the brightly lit Tingxiang Pavilion, Nan Zhen was both shocked and envious.
Whose child is so wasteful?
Isn''t there a family to control them?
"Brother Zhen, who do you think had such a grand gesture to buy Tingxiang Pavilion?" Su Zhiqiang was envious, thinking about how much face he would have if he owned such a luxurious vi.
"No idea, but it must be a bigwig," Nan Zhen said.
"Right, definitely a bigwig."
"And a bigwig among bigwigs."
"After all, not everyone can buy Tingxiang Pavilion."
Su Zhiqiang nodded repeatedly.
"Zhiqiang, do you think we should go in and check it out? See who this bigwig is?"
Nan Zhen was eager to try.
"Can''t do that, Brother Zhen." Su Zhiqiang shook his head solemnly: "It''s sote now, going in would definitely disturb the bigwig. It wouldn''t be good to incur their displeasure."
Speaking as if he thought of something, he suddenly eximed: "Brother Zhen, do you think the owner of this vi is the mysterious Crown Prince?"
Crown Prince?
Nan Zhen was taken aback, knowing Su Zhiqiang must have thought of something, he quickly said: "Let''s hear it."
"Brother Zhen, think about it. Tingxiang Pavilion is amazing, but due to its high price andrge size, many people want to own it, but none want to spend this kind of money. Take a first-tier family, for example, the annual profit from all its businesses totals around 30 billion."
"Spending one-sixth of the annual profit to buy such a vi to umte dust is simply wasteful."
"But the Crown Prince is different. Backed by the Ye and Li Families, even buying a few more vis like Tingxiang Pavilion would not make them blink."
"Most importantly, the Crown Prince has been away for years, and the Ye and Li Families spending over 40 billion in ''pocket change'' to buy such a luxurious vi for him as somepensation over these years is nothing at all. After all, the annual profit of Li Corporation alone reaches 500 billion, and 4.8 billion is just a mosquito''s leg."
Su Zhiqiang analyzed in an organized manner, and Nan Zhen nodded repeatedly in agreement with his analysis.
"Zhiqiang, His Highness the Crown Prince has just arrived at Capital City. I think..." Nan Zhen said meaningfully: "I think we should establish a good rtionship with him."
"Brother Zhen, you mean..."
"Indeed, tonight is not a good idea; it would disturb His Highness the Crown Prince. How about this, wee over first thing tomorrow morning to greet His Highness and get a head start in building a rtionship with him."
Nan Zhen said with a smile, feeling very fortunate.
The Crown Prince of Huaxia, a super second generation with the blood of the Ye and Li Families!
In all of Huaxia, there''s only this one!
This young lord, newly arrived at Capital City, knowing no one, and without friends.
If Nan Zhen couldtch onto this big leg and develop a good rtionship with the Crown Prince...
The benefits would be unimaginable!
Just thinking about it made Nan Zhen very excited.
Su Zhiqiang felt the same, overwhelmed with excitement.
If he could be the ''Capital City guide'' for the Crown Prince, he would have two powerful connections!
A Huaxia super young lordthe Crown Prince!
The third young master of a future superfamily in HuaxiaNan Zhen!
The future looked incredibly bright!
Su Zhiqiang was so excited that his voice trembled slightly.
"Alright, Nan Shao, we''lle over first thing tomorrow morning!"
...
"My goodness."
"So grand and impressive."
"Only the Crown Prince is worthy of living here."
The next morning.
Su Zhiqiang led Nan Zhen to therge yard of Tingxiang Pavilion.
Looking at Tingxiang Pavilion up close, Nan Zhen couldn''t help but exim.
This vi... is impressive!
The main building of Tingxiang Pavilion is very simr to the castles where European medieval nobles resided. After going up a dozen steps, you reach the vi''s imposing and grand entrance, which is as high as a floor.
Behind the door is a magnificent hall.
The courtyard, the size of a football field, is nted with manyvenders and dandelions, and there''s a naturalke with a small bridge leading directly to a pavilion in the center of theke.
Including therge yard, the whole of Tingxiang Pavilion exudes an elegant and noble aura.
Living here is ultimate enjoyment and highlights an extremely noble status!
For a moment, extreme envy shone in Nan Zhen''s eyes.
Though envious, he was aware of his standing.
Such an impressive and expensive vi is not within his reach.
"What are you guys doing here?"
Suddenly, a cold voice pulled both of them back to reality.
They turned around and their faces turned sour.
Ye Huan?
Why do they keep running into this kid everywhere?
What a haunting presence!
Nan Zhen gave Ye Huan a cold look and said coldly, "Kid, you also live in Golden Shore?"
"Is that not allowed?"
Chapter 539 - 528: Nonsense, this is my friends house!
Upon getting Ye Huan''s affirmative answer, Nan Zhen was once again boiling with anger.
The disparity between people, why is it so vast!
As the third young master of the Nan Family, he had to beg his father over fifty times just to buy a vi in Golden Shore.
And Ye Huan? He got a vi in Golden Shore just by mooching off someone, ridiculous!
Nan Zhen felt very unbnced and asked, "So what level of vi do you live in?"
"What does it have to do with you?" Ye Huan replied indifferently, originally heading to the parking lot, preparing to drive to Celestial Sea to bring Liu Tianyun back to the Capital City.
He was about to start the car when he saw two unexpected guests in the courtyard, prompting him toe over and check.
"Just say it, why are you being so hesitant, are you a man!" Nan Zhen was very impatient.
Ye Huan didn''t want to engage with him, but thinking that dering the vi owner''s identity might make these two leave quicker, he casually responded.
"S..." Ye Huan had yet to say the other two S''s when Nan Zhen''s exmation interrupted him.
"S-ss?"
"Holy shit!"
Upon hearing ''S'', Nan Zhen instinctively eximed, feeling utterly vexed.
He had begged his parents tirelessly, and the vi he got was only A-ss.
Yet Ye Huan mooched his way into an S-ss vi!
The disparity between people, why is it so vast.
But it''s undeniable, not everyone can be a mooch.
For example, Ye Qiqing''s generosity isn''t something an average person can enjoy.
Yet this guy managed to, and in such an outrageous way.
Indeed, upon hearing that Ye Huan also lived in Golden Shore, Nan Zhen instinctively assumed that Ye Huan heard living there was prestigious and got Ye Qiqing to buy him a vi.
After all, Ye Qiqing, being the current chairman of Li Corporation, wasn''tcking money.
But hearing that Ye Qiqing bought him an S-ss vi left Nan Zhen utterly shocked.
Sure, Ye Qiqing is wealthy, but can''t you be a bit more discreet? To actually buy an S-ss vi in Golden Shore for a kept man?
An S-ss vi costs at least 1.5 billion!
In his shock, Nan Zhen felt immense psychological imbnce, his gaze towards Ye Huan filled with jealousy.
"Kid, your skill at mooching..." Nan Zhen sneered, yet was clenching his teeth, "is quite impressive indeed."
"I''m not interested in discussing anything else with you."
"Who allowed you to enter this yard?"
Ye Huan didn''t want to waste time with Nan Zhen and directly asked coldly.
Nan Zhen raised an eyebrow, very displeased, a sh of malice flickering in his eyes, and angrily cursed instead of answering Ye Huan''s question:
"Kid, aren''t you just mooching your way to an S-ss vi, why are you acting so arrogant!"
"You''re enjoying your mooching now, but a month from now, I''ll finish you off!"
"Ye Huan." Beside him, Su Zhiqiang chimed in, his tone full of coldness, "Let me give you a piece of advice. If you don''t want to die terribly in a month, don''t act arrogant in front of me and Brother Zhen."
"Su Zhiqiang,st time you tricked me and brought Nan Zhen to cause trouble, by rights, I shouldn''t have spared your life."
"But considering you''re Su Qingqing''s older brother, I let you go once."
"But only this once. I warn you, if you provoke me again, I won''t give you a second chance to live."
Ye Huan''s gaze turned cold, inexplicably sending a chill down Su Zhiqiang''s spine to his head.
Su Zhiqiang shivered but looked indignant, wondering how he could be scared by a kept man.
A monthter, when the Nan-Qin marriage happens, Ye Huan''s greatest supportYe Qiqing, will be of no use, so what should he fear from Ye Huan?
"Ye Huan..."
Su Zhiqiang still wanted to begrudge a few words with Ye Huan.
But Ye Huan didn''t want to waste time on these two, pointing to the iron gate, he coldly shouted, "No one allowed you in, get out!"
Nan Zhen: "..."
Su Zhiqiang: "..."
The two were taken aback,pletely not expecting Ye Huan to suddenly blurt this out, actually telling them to leave?
Where did Ye Huan get the courage?
Nan Zhen was furious, shouting, "Ye Huan, stop being so arrogant, you''re the one who should leave!"
"Me?" Ye Huan couldn''t help butugh, "Do you know whose house this is?"
"Nonsense, this vi was bought by a friend of mine yesterday!"
Chapter 540 - 529: Beat You Until You Cry Out
Nan Zhen''s coldugh made a thick yful expression appear on Ye Huan''s face.
"So, your friend, what''s their surname, name, and what do they do?" Ye Huan smirked and asked.
Nan Zhen was stumped, feeling a bit guilty, as he didn''t know the Crown Prince''s full name or what he did.
Having no way out, and unable to swallow the scolding from Ye Huan, he decided to y along with a bold face.
"Hehe, do you think you''re worthy of knowing my friend''s name and identity?"
"I can only tell you that my friend''s terrifying identity is beyond your wildest imagination, got it!"
"Like I said, it''s you who should damn well get out, if you know what''s good for you, you better scurry out now, don''t wait for my friend toe out and have the security kick you out!"
Ye Huan found it quite peculiar.
In this world, there really are such strange things?
Illegally intruding into someone else''s property and then threatening to have the owner kicked out using security?
"Kid, got nothing to say, huh?" Seeing Ye Huan keeping silent, Nan Zhen thought Ye Huan was scared, and immediately became arrogant, "Let me tell you, the owner of this vi, my friend, is an existence terrifying beyond your imagination. His family''s influence is second to none in the whole of Huaxia. He is a true super young master! Even I, the third young master of the Nan Family, am nothing in front of him!"
Huh?
Ye Huan was puzzled, unable to understand why Nan Zhen was suddenly praising him.
Could it be that when the tattooed thug crippled Nan Zhen''s limbs, he identally damaged Nan Zhen''s brain?
"You entering my friend''s vi without permission amounts to illegal intrusion!"
"You also live in Golden Shore, so you should know that Tingxiang Pavilion is Golden Shore''s most luxurious, most incredible, and most expensive vi."
"ordingly, its security level is the highest. If I call the vi area''s security and report your illegal intrusion into Tingxiang Pavilion, humph humph..."
Nan Zhen rambled on, deliberately threatening, "Let me tell you, the security here are all retired soldiers, they know you illegally intruded into Tingxiang Pavilion, they''ll at least beat you till you cry for your mom!"
As he spoke, he signaled to Su Zhiqiang.
Su Zhiqiang took out his phone.
Nan Zhen looked at Ye Huanzily, with a threatening toneced in his previous words, aiming to scare Ye Huan into leaving the courtyard quickly.
After all, he didn''t know the owner of Tingxiang Pavilionthe Crown Prince of Huaxia. If the Crown Prince suddenly came out from the vi, it would be very awkward when the truth came to light.
Not only awkward, but imitating a friend of the Crown Prince might anger the true Crown Prince!
Therefore, only if Ye Huan left soon could this risk be avoided.
"Kid, you''re still not going, are you?"
"If you don''t leave soon, when I make the call to the security, it''ll not be as simple as you want to leave."
Seeing Ye Huan unmoved, Nan Zhen seemed a little anxious, and as he spoke, he gave Su Zhiqiang another signal.
Su Zhiqiang began dialing.
"Come on, make your call." Ye Huan not only showed no sign of leaving but even made a ''please'' gesture. He genuinely thought Nan Zhen had been punched silly by the tattooed thug; otherwise, how could he talk about calling security?
What''s the point of calling security over?
To beat themselves up?
"Not crying until you see the coffin, dial the security, take him down." Nan Zhen knew he couldn''t wait any longer, otherwise, if the Crown Prince came out of the vi, the situation would blow up. So he instructed Su Zhiqiang to contact security toe over and drive Ye Huan away.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
"Tingxiang Pavilion!"
"Someone''s illegally intruding, get over here quickly!"
"You''ll be here in three minutes? Okay, okay, okay!"
Su Zhiqiang hung up the phone and said, "Brother Zhen, security will arrive in three minutes."
"Kid, this is yourst chance." Nan Zhen warned Ye Huan once again. Although he really wanted security to beat Ye Huan, he was also afraid the Crown Prince mighte out of the vi in these three minutes, so he gave Ye Huan onest chance.
Ye Huanpletely ignored him.
Nan Zhen was very displeased and wanted to speak again to tell Ye Huan to get out.
But just as he opened his mouth, his face changed.
"Whoosh"
The roaring sounds outside the courtyard became louder.
Five trucks drove into the yard, and dozens of staff from the movingpany and furniture factory gradually got off the trucks, unloading expensive furniture from the trucks.
Nan Zhen really cursed in his heart.
Why would these workerse now of all times?
Such amotion was very likely to alert the Crown Prince in the vi!
If the Crown Prince came out and found out that Nan Zhen was bluffing and pretending, he''d certainly be angry.
By then, not only would he fail to please the Crown Prince, but he''d also make the Crown Prince unhappy.
What a conundrum!
"Handle carefully, make sure not to damage anything. If it''s damaged, we can''t afford to pay for it even if we bring out all we have."
"Since Mr. Ye entrusted us with this job, we must be meticulous, careful, and cautious!"
The director among the workers shouted a few words through a loudspeaker.
Although Nan Zhen and Su Zhiqiang expected it, they were still somewhat shocked to hear the director referring to ''Mr. Ye.''
Surname Ye, the Crown Prince, after all, is the son of Ye Tiance, isn''t he?
It must be the Crown Prince living in Tingxiang Pavilion!
No way, he absolutely cannot be disturbed!
Chapter 541 - 530: The Master of Tingxiang Pavilion, Is It Really Ye Huan!?
Nan Zhen looked panicked, giving Su Zhiqiang a meaningful nce.
Su Zhiqiang nodded in understanding, snatched the loudspeaker from the officer, and angrily yelled, "Hurry up, tell your men to stop whatever they''re doing."
The officer was stunned for a moment and then asked with annoyance, "Who are you?"
"We''re Mr. Ye''s friends!" Nan Zhen said impatiently, "Hurry and make your people stop."
Mr. Ye''s friends?
The officer was indeed bluffed, waved to his men, ready to make them stop.
At this moment, Ye Huan spoke up coldly, "Don''t listen to them, they''re not my friends. Just keep moving things in."
"Hey kid, what are you babbling about, when did we say you were our friend? Who do you think you are? Go look in the mirror before you speak, alright."
After giving a scornful look, Nan Zhen turned to the officer and ordered, "Hurry up, make your men stop working."
"Get lost."
"You''re not Mr. Ye''s friends, what right do you have to order me around."
The officer was unapologetic, spitting as he spoke to Nan Zhen''s face.
This morning, beforeing over, he had called "Mr. Ye" and remembered "Mr. Ye''s" voice.
It was indeed this handsome guy in front of him.
"You''re talking nonsense, we are Mr. Ye''s friends!"
"Hurry up and make your men stop!"
"Otherwise, be careful, we''llin to Mr. Ye and have him return all your goods, and you won''t be able to do business!"
Nan Zhen shouted angrily, feeling furious inside, a mere worker dared to treat him like this, it really was a case of the tiger being bullied by dogs when fallen into bad luck.
The officer showed no fear and retorted, "Mr. Ye himself said you are not his friends, yet you keep stubbornly denying it?"
"Who said that!"
"Nobody said that!"
Nan Zhen and Su Zhiqiang spoke out simultaneously.
"Ye Huan, Mr. Ye said it!" The officer pointed at Ye Huan.
Nan Zhen and Su Zhiqiang froze simultaneously.
The two of them inexplicably felt a chill down their spines.
"What he says is useless."
"My friend Mr. Ye is not this Ye Huan."
"The friend I''m talking about, known as Mr. Ye, is the owner of Tingxiang Pavilion, the one who ordered this batch of furniture from you, got it?"
Nan Zhen steadied himself, stubbornly speaking out.
"I don''t know anything about the owner of Tingxiang Pavilion you''re talking about."
"But I do know, ady ordered a batch of furniture worth 14,000,000 yuan with us using the name Ye Huan, Mr. Ye, instructing us to deliver them to Tingxiang Pavilion at Golden Shore."
"If Mr. Ye Huan is not the owner of Tingxiang Pavilion, why would thatdy order so many pieces of furniture to be delivered here?"
The officer returned to the truck, took down a more than one-meter-long receipt, and dangled the bottom part of it in front of Nan Zhen.
Nan Zhen and Su Zhiqiang stared wide-eyed at the name signed on the receipt!
What, it really is Ye Huan!?
Delivery Address: Golden Shore - Tingxiang Pavilion!
And it''s been paid for!?
Both of them shuddered involuntarily, breaking out in a cold sweat.
Indeed, just as the officer analyzed.
If Ye Huan wasn''t the owner of Tingxiang Pavilion, how could "thatdy" idly order a batch of furniture worth over ten million to be sent here?
If she was really idle, "thatdy" wouldn''t have actually paid for it!
If paid for, it means a real purchase order!
But if it''s a real order, doesn''t that prove
Doesn''t it prove that the owner of Tingxiang Pavilion is indeed Ye Huan!
But how is this possible!
Both Nan Zhen and Su Zhiqiang disyed looks of disbelief.
But whether they believed it or not, the facts wereid before their eyes!
"S"
Nan Zhen recalled when Ye Huan previously mentioned the vi grade, after saying one "S" he made the first syble of the next "S!"
Ye Huan wanted to say SSS, but was interrupted by me!
I did hear the second "si" syble at the time, but I didn''t think much of it.
Because I never imagined that the owner of Tingxiang Pavilion, one of those top vis in the Capital City that countless people dream of but can''t have, would be Ye Huan!
This vi is the dream of so many people, and now it''s Ye Huan''s property!
Thinking of this, a sense of envy, jealousy, and hatred stirred wildly in Nan Zhen''s heart
Su Zhiqiang felt the same, filled with extreme envy, jealousy, and hatred
No
This is not the time for envy, jealousy, and hatred!
Recalling the call we ced earlier to the security to deal with the illegal intruders, both of our throats unconsciously tightened.
Ye Huan is the owner of Tingxiang Pavilion, not an illegal intruder!
The illegal intruders are the two of us!
Priorly when Ye Huan told us to get out, he really had the qualification!
Once the security arrives, the ones getting beaten up will surely not be Ye Huan, but the two of us!
"Zhiqiang, quicklylet''s go!" Nan Zhen shouted in panic, pulling Su Zhiqiang out of his daze.
Su Zhiqiang understood why Nan Zhen was so anxious, and with a face full of fear, pushed Nan Zhen, urging him to run out.
Ye Huan didn''t intend to let them off easily, kicking out with his foot.
"Bang!"
Su Zhiqiang, along with his wheelchair, fell t on his face.
Meanwhile, Nan Zhen plunged headfirst to the ground, groaning in pain.
At this time, a group of strong security guards rushed in, holding batons, angrily shouting, "Who dares illegally invade Tingxiang Pavilion!"
Upon seeing Ye Huan, they all stood at attention.
When Lilu moved in, she made a trip to the property management at Golden Shore.
She took out a photo, handed it to the property manager, and instructed that the man in the photo was the true owner of Tingxiang Pavilion.
After all, being the owner of the only SSS-level vi at Golden Shore, property management dared not neglect, so they circted the photo among allpany staff, including the security team.
The security guards recognized Ye Huan immediately and saluted.
"Hello, Mr. Ye!"
Ye Huan nced at the name tag on the lead security guard''s chest and twitched his mouth.
Security Captain Dai Xiongzhao.
This name is quite bizarre.
He shook his head and didn''t think much about it.
Ye Huan pointed to Nan Zhen and Su Zhiqiang on the ground and said,
"Captain Dai, these two illegally invaded Tingxiang Pavilion."
"Please ''properly'' deal with them, let them learn a lesson."
Dai Xiongzhao swung his baton, fiercely hitting Nan Zhen, meaningfully saying,
"Don''t worry, Mr. Ye, we guarantee toplete the task!"
Chapter 542 - 531: A Living Buffoon!
"Damn it, it hurts so much... ow!"
Nan Zhen and Su Zhiqiang howled in pain, their heads were cracked open, and blood was flowing down.
In the end, they were dragged out by security like little chicks and thrown out of Tingxiang Pavilion.
...
"Ouch..."
"It hurts so bad, take it easy..."
At a hospital in Capital City, Nan Zhen was crying out in pain repeatedly.
The nurse was bandaging his head, causing him to howl in pain once again.
Next to him, Su Zhiqiang was in slightly better condition, but he was still hissing in pain.
"Ye Huan, just you wait, I will never let you off!!!"
Nan Zhen gritted his teeth, roaring internally with rage.
With old wounds not healed, and now new ones added, it was truly taking his life away.
And both times, the injuries were because of Ye Huan!
Nan Zhen truly hated Ye Huan in his heart, wishing he could skin him alive and tear him to pieces.
Too infuriating!
Besides hating Ye Huan, he also hated Ye Qiqing!
If Ye Qiqing hadn''t bought Tingxiang Pavilion and given it to Ye Huan, he wouldn''t be the owner of Tingxiang Pavilion.
If that were the case, Su Zhiqiang''s call to the security team at Golden Shore wouldn''t have backfired on them.
Then Nan Zhen wouldn''t have ended up in such a situation!
The real culprit was Ye Qiqing!
How could this woman be so wasteful!
Tingxiang Pavilion, that''s a whole 4.8 billion!
A 4.8 billion vi, just given away like that?
And given to a pretty boy!
If you''re this wasteful, does your family know!
Yes, Nan Zhen believed that that luxurious vi, Tingxiang Pavilion, was chosen by Ye Huan because he wanted to unt it, and so he demanded it from Ye Qiqing.
Otherwise, how could Ye Huan, an upstart from Celestial Sea, afford such an extremely luxurious vi like Tingxiang Pavilion?
Nan Zhen also believed that Ye Qiqing would unhesitatingly buy Tingxiang Pavilion for Ye Huan.
After all, from childhood to adulthood, Ye Qiqing only had feelings for Ye Huan and even proposed to him publicly at a business banquet.
Once a woman who doesn''t easily fall in love falls for a man, she''ll treat him as everything.
Don''t say one Tingxiang Pavilion, Nan Zhen believed that even if Ye Huan wanted ten, Ye Qiqing would give them to him!
Who is Ye Qiqing? The current chairperson of Li Corporation, with control over trillions of funds!
Spending tens of billions or hundreds of billions on a beloved man is nothing.
The dy" who ordered that batch of furniture worth over ten million for Ye Huan must also be Ye Qiqing!
Nan Zhen was extremely jealous.
Why wasn''t he as handsome as Ye Huan, or as charming?
He also wanted to live off Ye Qiqing, but his abilities didn''t allow it!
s!
Nan Zhen let out a deep sigh.
Soon after, a look of extreme malice shed in his eyes.
Ye Huan not only got him hurt again this time but also humiliated him once more!
Friends with the owner of Tingxiang Pavilion?
More like enemies!
Thinking back to when he and Su Zhiqiang were praising the nobility and grandeur of Tingxiang Pavilion in front of Ye Huan, ttering the owner of Tingxiang Pavilion, saying how the owner was beyond Ye Huan''s imagination...
Thinking back to the time of pretending to be a friend of the owner of Tingxiang Pavilion in front of the real owner without knowing the truth...
Thinking about getting up early just to curry favor with the owner of Tingxiang Pavilion...
Nan Zhen only felt his face burning red, feeling like a lively clown with nowhere to hide his embarrassment...
So humiliating!
"Zhiqiang, I can''t swallow this anger!" Nan Zhen said in despair.
Su Zhiqiang, full of grief and anger, said:
"Brother Zhen, I can''t swallow this either, but we can''t rush it, we can''t provoke Ye Qiqing right now."
"Give me some time, I''lle up with a way to properly deal with that brat Ye Huan without anyone knowing it was us!"
"Alright! If you need any help, just let me know, this time we must make Ye Huan understand what pain really is!" Nan Zhen''s words were filled with resentment.
...
Originally, Ye Huan nned to go to Celestial Sea to pick up Liu Tianyun and take her to Capital City, and then to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel to check on Lilith''s condition.
As for the furniturepany, Ye Huan didn''t lock the vi door, letting them move the items themselves.
But because of this incident involving Nan Zhen, a lot of time was wasted, and a round trip to Celestial Sea would take at least six hours, meaning he couldn''t be back in time for the eight hours since Lilith took the yellow reagent. So Ye Huan simply called Liu Tianyun, asking her to drive to Capital City herself and help coordinate with the furniturepany''s staff to move the furniture.
Two hourster, all the furniture was moved and set up. Ye Huan took a quick shower and drove to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel.
"Hmm, the medicine works well."
"I''ve checked, the toxins in your body arepletely gone."
"Congrattions, you won''t turn into a granny again."
At the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, in the No.1 Presidential Suite, after checking Lilith''s pulse for three minutes, Ye Huan announced the good news with a smile.
"My dear, thank you so much."
Lilith smiled with delight, hugged Ye Huan''s neck, leaving a soft lipstick mark, making Huan''s face turn dark.
"There''s really no issue?" Diana, standing by, still looked worried.
"There is an issue!"
Lilith''s sudden remark made Diana extremely concerned, quickly asking, "Miss, are you feeling uneasy anywhere..."
"Oh, after drinking that vial of reagentst night, I became prettier."
"Now that I''m back to normal, I''m not as pretty."
Lilith sat on the bed, propping her chin in her hands and pouting.
Ye Huan smacked her head lightly, saying, "Don''t be too greedy. It''s good enough not to turn back into a granny."
"I am not greedy. I''m really satisfied with being back like this. I just felt a bit regretful before, because what girl wouldn''t like looking even prettier."
"And your body, there''s nothing ufortable, right?" Ye Huan had already checked Lilith''s condition, knowing full well she was fine, but he asked the question for Diana''s sake, to put her worries to rest.
"No, there''s nothing ufortable, in fact, I feel more energetic." Lilith said, stretchingzily, revealing her wless curves.
After a brief appreciation, Ye Huan looked away, chanting silently, "Don''t look, don''t look."
Seeing this, Lilith smiled slyly, pouncing forward, hugging Ye Huan tightly from behind.
Diana had originally sighed with relief, but seeing Lilith''s bold move, she panicked, "Miss, you..."
Before Diana could finish, Lilith got off Ye Huan''s back, stretched again, and then jumped off the bed, clenching her pink fists in the bright sunlight outside the window.
"Get up!"
"Today is the first official date with my darling!"
"I have to dress beautifully!"
Date?
Ye Huan''s face darkened, but he said nothing more, as he did promise Lilithst night to spend a day with her in Capital City.
It''s just that...
Today, he had agreed with Ye Tiance to go and apologize to the five female special forces officers.
"Lilith,st night, in order to lure out the assassin, I scolded the five special forces officers protecting you. I have to go apologize to them first, and then I''ll take you out." Ye Huan said.
"I''ll change first and then apany you." Lilith hummed a light tune.
At the same time, she unexpectedly started changing clothes without any reservation.
Her loveliness was fully revealed in the air!
Ye Huan couldn''t help but widen his eyes, his throat instinctively bobbing up and down...
Chapter 543 - 532 Dianas "Little Secret
"What are you looking at? Aren''t you afraid of getting a stye? Get out quickly!" Diana urgently pushed Ye Huan away, then used her body to block the view between Lilith and Ye Huan.
If he kept watching, regardless of the stye, he would definitely get a nosebleed!
To avoid such awkward situations, Ye Huan jogged out of the suite.
"Diana, what are you doing?" Inside the suite, Lilith looked displeased.
"Miss, can''t you be a little more reserved?"
"You haven''t even established a rtionship with Ye Huan yet!"
"Doing this will make him think you''re a woman who doesn''t respect herself, do you understand?"
Diana looked heartbroken. She was speaking harshly, hoping Lilith would stop "demeaning" herself like this.
Lilith was silent for a while.
Diana thought she was angry, and through gritted teeth, said, "Miss, I''m sorry, I shouldn''t have said that."
"I don''t me you." Lilith slipped the dress over herself, saying softly, "Diana, Ye Huan is excellent, and I love him very much."
Diana gritted her teeth, "But even so, you can''t..."
"If only he would be a bit more proactive, would I ever act this way?"
Lilith interrupted Diana angrily, then a sweet expression appeared on her face, a bit shy: "Diana, you might not believe it, but I don''t know when it started. I found myself thinking about him every day during meals and before sleeping, unable to get his image out of my mind. When singing or writing love songs, all I think of is him. At first, I wasn''t aware of it, but as time went by, I understood that I had fallen deeply in love with Ye Huan."
"Miss, I just can''t figure out what it is about him that makes you love him so?" Diana looked puzzled.
"His responsibility, hismitment..."
"Responsibility andmitment? He took you away and then ran off, disappearing for years?" Diana cut off Lilith with disdain.
Lilith rolled her eyes and said, "Zeus, that old man, blew a fuse back then. If he''d seen Ye Huan, he would have killed him with one strike. Only a fool wouldn''t have run in that situation."
With that, she changed the direction of the conversation and continued:
"Moreover, think carefully. If Ye Huan wasn''t responsible andmitted, why did he stick by me for two years, encountering countless dangers? He would always say he wouldn''t care about me, yet every time at critical moments, he''d save me."
"Evenst night, he fearlessly crashed through the floor-to-ceiling window, leaping down from the eighty-eighth floor with the assassins, just to prevent you and me from getting hurt when the assassins self-destructed."
"I''ve long ''seen through'' Ye Huan. He''s a man with a sharp tongue yet a soft heart!"
"Like when he told me he was busy, that if I stayed in Capital City, he wouldn''t have the time to protect me."
"But I believe as long as I stay in Capital City for one day, he''ll protect me for a day. If I''m here for a hundred days, he''ll protect me for a hundred days."
"Secretly deploying special forces outside the suite to protect me is the best proof!"
Diana: "..."
She was speechless, only now realizing she remembered Ye Huan''s escape but forgot about the two years he closely protected Lilith, saving her countless times in critical moments, and even her, Diana.
In several near-death moments, it was Ye Huan descending like a Celestial God, suddenly appearing and vanquishing all the enemies.
Recalling these events, Diana suddenly felt Ye Huan''s figure bing more towering in her heart, all previous negative perceptions of him vanished, and she even became less opposed to him and Lilith being together.
"Furthermore, about what you said about being reserved..."
"Diana, you haven''t been in love, have you?"
"Let me ask you, do you know what the most important thing in love is?"
Lilith''s mouth curled up.
This touched upon Diana''s blind spot of knowledge, causing her face to flush red, shaking her head: "Miss, I''ve never been in love, so I don''t know."
"In love, what''s most important between a man and a woman is mutual understanding andplementation."
"For example, in a rtionship, if both parties don''t take the initiative, how can the rtionship develop? Ye Huan is someone who won''t take the initiative in rtionships. You could even say, he''s someone who finds it hard even to be passive, a blockhead. If I am still reserved, I won''t win him over even after a hundred years. And he''s so excellent, there are plenty of women who would make the first move."
"So, I have to be more proactive and strive to win him over soon!"
"As for self-respect? Thisdy has decided on him for this lifetime. So what if I''m unreserved in front of him? Thisdy is only unreserved in front of him; how he sees me, that''s his own business, not something thisdy wants to manage!"
While speaking, Lilith boasted eloquently.
Diana was rendered incredulous, finally understanding what "the craziest woman in love" meant.
At the same time, she also thought Lilith''s words made a lot of sense...
But, there was onest concern.
Diana sighed: "Miss, I''m just afraid the master won''t agree to you and Ye Huan..."
"Ye Huan is the God of ughter, standing as an equal to the Celestial God among the thirteen Celestial Gods with a mortal body. Such an excellent son-inw is something even Zeus couldn''t find with antern after searching ten streets, so how could he not agree?"
Lilith snorted coldly, having already dressed, "Alright, I''m off. Today''s my date, so don''t follow me."
"Then Miss, please be careful yourself. If anything happens, call me immediately." Diana didn''t believe Ye Huan was the God of ughter, but she didn''t n to say more, sighing in her heart.
"Don''t worry, the person protecting me is the God of ughter, nothing will happen."
Lilith said proudly, walking towards the suite exit.
But after a few steps, she paused.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she came back, with a slightly mischievous look, leaned closely to Diana''s ear, her lips slightly curled, and softly whispered:
"Diana, when you meet the right man, go and seriously have a rtionship, so you don''t have to hide things in your suitcase every time you go out. Those things... they only treat the symptoms, not the root cause, and they''re unsanitary."
"Finding a boyfriend will easily solve that problem, right?"
With that, Lilith gave Diana a yful "good luck" look and skipped out of the suite.
Inside the suite, Diana covered her flushed cheeks, already petrified, her face as red as a tomato, wishing she could find a hole to crawl into!
Hide things?
She doesn''t have a boyfriend.
But she often needs to relieve stress.
So before every trip, she''d hide "toys" in her suitcase...
This was a secret she was ashamed to speak of, assuming she''d hidden it well!
Only now, with Lilith''s words, did she realize that Lilith had long known her secret!
Oh my, how can I face her now!
Chapter 544 - 533 Pink Lover
"Why are you dressed like that?" Ye Huan asked when he saw Lilith''s strange outfit outside the suite.
Lilith was wearing a light blue dress, a blue hat, sunsses, and a mask over her mouth.
"I''m afraid that fans will recognize me and interrupt our date, so I dressed like this."
Indeed, with Lilith''s poprity, she might be recognized even in an unknown alley.
Ye Huan nodded silently, then handed his phone to Lilith, saying, "Take a look."
"Look at what?" Lilith was puzzled for a second, then widened her eyes, eximing, "What, you secretly met with Diana!?"
The phone screen disyed a piece of news.
A piece of news with over 500 million reads online!
It shocked all of Huaxia...
No, it shook the entire world''s inte!
The news headline was: "Shocking! World Celestial Queen Lilith''s assistantDiana, secretly met with Lilith''s boyfriend at a hotelte at night?"
"Who met with Diana, do I not have better things to do?"
"I thought it was inappropriate to wear a bathrobe outst night, so I asked Diana to help me buy some clothes."
"She agreed and asked me to wait in her room, considering it wasn''t appropriate to stand in the hotel hallway in a bathrobe either."
"In the end, when I reached out to take the keycard from Diana, a paparazzi took a photo..."
Ye Huan exined the situation fromst night with a face full of exasperation.
He was bored and browsing news on his phone while standing outside the door and stumbled upon this story.
The news picture was naturally a shot taken by the paparazzi in the elevatorst night, capturing the moment when Diana handed him the keycard.
Thankfully, the paparazzi were not that crude; they "thoughtfully" pixted Brother Huan''s head, or he would have be infamous as a "scumbag," unable to clear his name even after jumping into the Yellow River.
As for exining to Lilith, he feared that she would see the newster, recognize him at a nce, and misunderstand the situation, so he exined in advance to avoid aplicated exnationter.
"That''s how today''s news came about," Ye Huan finished speaking exhaustively, feeling his throat burning, "Anyway, it''s malicious hype by paparazzi. I hope you don''t misunderstand."
Lilith looked doubtful:
"Diana hasn''t been in a rtionship. After so many years, she''s quite ''ripe,'' the type you men like the most."
"Last night, with no one around, you were alone in a room with her."
"Who knows if you might have done something with her."
Ye Huan staggered back, almost spitting out blood, thinking, where did Lilith learn such phrases? This is ridiculous!
"But, uh..." Lilith said seriously, "If you really got together with Diana, that wouldn''t be bad either. It would save her from hiding things in her suitcase every time she travels far and keeping me up with the noise when we sleep together. I have to pretend to be asleep to avoid embarrassing her."
The next moment, she clutched her forehead, taking a deep breath with a face full of grievance.
"What nonsense are you spouting, let''s go!"
...
"I say, haven''t you had enough?" Ye Huan gritted his teeth at the super mall.
If he could do it over, Brother Huan would definitely choose to take Lilith to the cinema rather than shopping!
He had always heard about the formidable "fighting power" of women shopping, and Brother Huan experienced it firsthand this time!
After leaving the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Ye Huan went to the Special Service Bureau to exin the situation ofst night to the five special service agents, apologize, and receive their understanding.
With this problem off his shoulders, Brother Huan felt relieved.
Little did he know that this was just the beginning of a nightmare!
For the next two hours, they began their so-called date with Lilith.
Shopping!
Lilith was like a bandit, as far as clothes, shoes, bags, and cosmetics were concerned. If she liked it, she bought it without even looking at the price.
She was extravagant!
But while she was extravagant, Brother Huan had to suffer!
Now, Ye Huan was carrying all kinds of shopping bags, with no ce left to hang them.
"Enough? This is just the beginning."
"If you''re tired and don''t want to shop with me anymore, go win that championship."
"Then give me the bouquet."
Lilith huffed, hands on her hips, and hung another shopping bag around Ye Huan''s neck.
"What''s so special about that bouquet? If you like flowers, I can buy you another bouquet from the flower shop," Ye Huan said helplessly.
"Though I''d love flowers from you, ''that bouquet'' is just a little better."
"It''s the only one in the world, a Valentine''s Day exclusive, and when the florists were designing and crafting it, they modeled it after perfect love."
"If you win it and give it to me, I''d be overjoyed."
Lilith pleaded, holding onto Ye Huan''s arm, her eyes sparkling with stars as she acted cute, "Why don''t you help me win it, please?"
Ye Huan sighed.
Before entering the mall, Lilith saw a huge poster pasted outside the mall entrance.
[Capital City Disnend: The triennial shootingpetition is about to start.]
[As thispetition coincides with Valentine''s Day symbolizing beautiful love, the organizers invited three top florists of Huaxia to jointly design and craft the Pink Lover Bouquet as an extra reward for the champion.]
The poster had a picture of the bouquet.
At first sight, Lilith''s eyes sparkled, wanting Ye Huan to win that bouquet for her.
Ye Huan refused without a second thought; he''d seen the news about this event while scrolling through his phone out of boredom.
Thepetition was creating a lot of buzz.
It''s said that some retired special forces, sharpshooters who lived by hunting on the savanna, and even Olympic shooting champions had registered to participate.
Their goal was to win the Pink Lover, which symbolizes perfect love!
It''s a bouquet designed and crafted by three top florists of Huaxia, unique in the world!
This world doesn''tck wealthy people.
The wealthy like to unt their money, buying extremely rare things to show off their status.
The Pink Lover obviously serves this purpose.
Even before thepetition started, it was on the ck market for pre-sale, with a ridiculous price, now spected up to a billion.
Whoever wins the championship this time and takes home the Pink Lover will undoubtedly be the center of attention and gain immense wealth.
Ye Huan had the ability.
With the powerful abilities of the Celestial God from the Dark World, including vision and wind speed judgment, Brother Huan''s body functions exceeded ordinary people.
Even if he were wielding a Gatling gun with maximum recoil, spraying bullets at a target, he could ensure all bullets hit the bullseye.
Therefore, for Brother Huan, guns were no different from children''s toys; he stopped ying with them more than a century ago.
Winning this so-called shootingpetition would be a piece of cake for him.
But Brother Huan didn''tck money and didn''t want to be the center of attention, so he refused to get involved in the chaos.
No matter how much Lilith acted cute and pleaded, Brother Huan ''ugly refused''!
Then came Lilith''s tantrum-like shopping spree!
The mall staff couldn''t stop grinning.
While Brother Huan suffered a world of pain.
If he had known, Ye Huan would definitely have gotten involved or taken Lilith to the cinema to kill time instead of enduring this in the mall!
Seeing no choice, Brother Huan didn''t want to suffer anymore.
Ye Huan gritted his teeth, saying, "After getting the flowers, no more today!"
No more meant ending the date.
But Lilith didn''t mind; she had prepared everything and would definitely have Ye Huan apany her the whole day and night...
She smiled with a beautiful arc, her eyes cunning, cheerfully saying, "No problem."
Chapter 545 - 534: Level 7 Gunner, Li Bing!
Capital City, Disnend amusement park, shooting gallery.
The spherical gallery was already packed to the brim, both at the registration area and the stands, it was a scene of people crammed together.
Ye Huan and Lilith queued for a whole hour and a half at the registration topete before they could enter the gallery.
"Why are there so many people, if I''d known it would be like this, I wouldn''t havee." Lilith greedily breathed in fresh air, wearing a mask already made it hard to breathe, and in the crowded area just now, she almost suffocated.
"It''s still not toote to leave now."
"Leave for what, after finally getting to go out with you? If we leave now, you''ll have topensate me for the hour and a half we wasted in line!"
Ye Huan, looking serious, frowned and said, "If we skip the shopping andpetition and just go to the movies or something, I canpensate you, twice even."
"Not leaving, I want you to win that bouquet for me as a gift!" Lilith hummed, she was justining just now, without any real intention of leaving.
That bouquet of pink romance, she was determined to get it!
The two walked into the gallery''s interior and soon reached the shooting range.
The range was covered with sand, located at the center of the gallery, with an area as big as two ser fields, one half being the participants'' preparation area and the other half popted with many targets for shooting.
The preparation area had the footprint of approximately one ser field yet still felt a bit cramped.
Ye Huan and Lilith went to a rtively spacious, though inconspicuous, corner area.
They nced around and discovered that ny percent of the participants had brought their male or female partners with them.
The remaining ten percent were mostly burly men, looking very rugged and over two meters tall.
They were hunters who made their living by hunting on the prairie!
Apart from them, the remaining individuals who came alone were those few men being interviewed by media reporters.
These men had an air of confidence, seemingly assured of their victory.
Clearly, the hunters and these men came for the championship, while most of the pair participants were just here for fun.
"Ye Huan, they are..." Lilith found these interviewed men familiar, feeling like she''s seen them somewhere before.
Ye Huan had seen these men on television, so he recognized them immediately, stating, "They are all members of the Huaxia national shooting team, who have won numerousurels at the Olympics, each one is a top-notch marksman whose shooting skills rival elite special forces."
"That''s impressive." Lilith was a bit surprised, fluttering her sparkling eyes as she asked, "How confident are you against them?"
Ye Huan smiled and said, "Rest assured, I stick to my word. If I say I''ll win that bouquet for you, you''ll get it, because I sure don''t want to endure a shopping trip again."
"Even though I really don''t like what you''re saying."
"But still..."
"Smooch."
Lilith, through her mask, pecked Ye Huan on the cheek, giving him a thumbs-up and said, "Good luck."
Ye Huan was speechless.
"Young man, you seem very confident, huh?"
Suddenly, a deep male voice was heard.
A corpulent, pot-bellied middle-aged man strolled over with his hands behind his back, his hair slicked back, wearing a Rolex gold watch. Clearly, he was a wealthy businessman.
Ye Huan frowned slightly, "And you are?"
The middle-aged man ignored Ye Huan, instead, he extracted a business card from his jacket pocket and handed it to Lilith with a gentlemanly air, saying:
"Beautifuldy, allow me to introduce myself."
"I am Liu Daming, chairman of Capital City''s Daming Building Materials Group, my assets aren''t much, just around ten billion."
"I own five vis, fifteen housing units, and more than twenty luxury cars priced over a million each..."
"If you came to talk nonsense, then you can leave now." Without letting Liu Daming continue, Lilith said coldly.
Liu Daming was taken aback, displeased with Lilith''s cold tone, but restrained himself from reacting.
"To be honest with you, beautifuldy."
"This shootingpetition has participants including prairie hunters, national team yers, all of whom are highly skilled, level five shooters and above."
"May I ask, what level shooter is your lover?"
Liu Daming asked with a smile.
Huaxia had introduced the shooting certificate over a decade ago for better management of people who need long-term firearm use.
Everyone who frequently requires firearm use, including military and police personnel, needs to obtain this certificate from relevant agencies.
Before issuing the certificate, shooting skills are tested and the level is indicated on the certificate based on the results.
The levels range from one to seven, with one being the lowest and seven the highest.
Lilith turned her gaze to Ye Huan.
Ye Huan shook his head lightly, having wielded guns mostly in the Dark World, he hadn''t bothered to get such a certificate upon returning to Huaxia.
Liu Daming wasn''t aware of this, he merely assumed Ye Huan didn''t have a shooting certificate.
In Huaxia, those without a shooting certificate generally don''t have long-term gun-handling or shooting training experience.
Liu Daming was genuinely intrigued by the rare situation.
A gunman without a certificate who actually wants to make it through so many pros to win a pink romance?
He inwardly scoffed.
Yet outwardly, he maintained a refined demeanor, merely "kindly" smiling as he reminded, "Young man, many participants in this shooting tournament are, like you, without certificates. However, those with a real chance of winning are few. For instance, the Olympic champion from thest editionPieter Daxing, and those who hunt for a living, they are level five or even level six shooters with exceptional shooting skills."
"What are you trying to say?" Ye Huan sensed the insinuation in Liu Daming''s words, asking coldly.
Liu Daming smiled, "Young man, I''m pretty straightforward, not very pleasant in how I speak, so don''t me me. What I meant is that for a gunman without a certificate, the odds of clinching the championship are virtually zero."
"I just find it troublesome, didn''t go to get that certificate. Also, whether I win or not, doesn''t seem to concern you, does it?" Ye Huan asked coldly.
Lazy?
Liu Daming maintained a calm exterior, but inwardly scoffed once more.
It''s not a matter ofziness or not, in Huaxia anyone proficient in gun use, or receiving prolonged shooting training must obtain a shooting certificate, or else it''s illegal!
Sneering internally, Liu Daming confirmed through Ye Huan''s "lie", one thing for sure.
That this guy was indeed an impostor trying to puff himself up, bragging about winning the pink romance, likely just to win over the woman beside him.
Talking about winning or not having no connection to him?
Liu Daming chuckled inwardly.
It wasn''t a concern initially, but since it rtes to that woman, it became one!
Liu Daming, relying on his keen eyesight, even with Lilith concealed by sunsses and a mask, deduced from her lively jade eyes, masked yet prominent high nose, slender waist with curvaceous figure, and cascading blonde hair, that Lilith was indeed a stunning western beauty.
Such prime western beauties were rare and must be wooed, shouldn''t let her be tricked away by this kid.
Moreover, from what the beauty wanted, she seemed to fancy the pink romance.
Just as well
"Miss, you do really want the pink romance, right?" Liu Daming still smiled gentlemanly and asked.
"What''s it to you?" Lilith''s voice was cold.
"Well, let me remind you kindly, miss, that in thispetition filled with pros, an uncertified shooter can''t possibly win, and therefore can''t win the pink romance for you. Also, I mentioned the strength of those level six shooters, and almost everyone believes the champion will emerge among them."
"But to be honest, the champion is definitely not among them!"
"Because a man has arrived who will absolutely be this tournament''s champion!"
Liu Daming pointed at a stoic man fifteen meters away, "Standing atop the world shooting scene, one of Huaxia''s handful of level seven shootersLi Bing!"
Chapter 546 - 535: 1 Billion!
"Darling, why is there a fly buzzing around here, it''s so annoying. Let''s go over there." Lilith waved her hand in disgust and walked a few meters away with Ye Huan.
Liu Daming''s face turned dark.
Did she just call him a fly?
This foreign woman really has a fiery temper.
However, usually the feistier the woman, the more obedient she bes once conquered by a man.
A lewd glint shed through Liu Daming''s eyes.
He straightened his cor, puffed out his beer belly, and walked over to Ye Huan and Lilith again, saying to Lilith:
"Beautifuldy, what I meant to say earlier is that the winner of Pink Lover will definitely be contestant Li Bing."
"And the reason I''m here at thepetition venue is to be the first to approach the champion, Mr. Li Bing, to purchase Pink Lover after the contest ends."
"For that, I''ve prepared..."
With an air of nonchnce, Liu Daming pulled out a check from his pocket, deliberately raising his voice: "One billion!"
The voice was loud, and even the contestants and audience around could hear it clearly!
An uproar ensued!
Everyone looked at Liu Daming with eyes full of disbelief.
"Isn''t this boss too generous? He''s actually offering one billion?"
"The price of Pink Lover on the ck market has just risen to two hundred million, but this boss is willing to spend a billion, that''s too extravagant!"
"I know who this boss is now!"
Suddenly, someone in the audience eximed: "He''s the chairman of the Capital City Daming Building Materials GroupLiu Daming, President Liu!"
"Wow, really?"
The audience looked closely and another uproar broke out.
"It''s really President Liu!"
"But then again, only someone of President Liu''s caliber would make such a big move, spending a billion on a bouquet, how extravagant."
"I''ve heard that Daming Building Materials Group''s cooperation with Li Corporation has be closer, having signed a strategic partnership agreement."
"Yeah, I''ve heard about it too, it even made it to the newspapers, and President Liu''s wealth skyrocketed by billions overnight!"
Daming Building Materials Group, the leading enterprise in Huaxia''s building materials industry, backed by Li Corporation, sees its profits rise every year, now potentially reaching thirty billion annually.
Liu Daming, because of this, has be a well-known millionaire in Capital City, which is why the audience could recognize him immediately.
"And... Li Bing!?"
The name mentioned by Liu Daming was known by almost everyone in Huaxia, and those present were no exception!
Is it that infamous Li Bing?
Not only the audience, but even some contestants turned their eyes to the expressionless man on the field.
"It''s really Li Bing, he actually came too!"
The scene immediately boiled over.
The previously confident-faced Hunter and Olympic gold and silver medalists all had their expressions change dramatically.
Among them, Pye Daxing, who won the gold medal in the shooting event at thest Olympics, looked the worst!
Li Bing represented Huaxia eight years ago at the Olympics, winning a gold medal in the shootingpetition and breaking the Olympic shooting record of previous years!
This battle elevated him from a Grade Six Shooter to a Grade Seven Shooter, renowned domestically and internationally!
Pye Daxing won the Olympic championship four years ago as well but did not break the legendary record left by Li Bing, currently remaining a Grade Six Shooter.
Facing Li Bing, he felt very insecure!
Pye Daxing grabbed an event staff member and angrily said, "What is your event staff doing, how can you let such a person participate in thepetition?"
The term "such a person" naturally referred to Li Bing.
Li Bing, returning home with glory eight years ago, shortly after had a scandal exposed, making him a public target in Huaxia.
The scandal was that, after losing a million in gambling, he turned to drugs to adjust his mood, ended up overdosing, got disoriented, and returned home to beat his wife, sending her to the ICU...
Even the muscleman eximed, "That''s expertise!"
"Yes, you must kick this pest out,peting with him is simply an insult to our dignity!"
"Kick him out! Kick him out!"
Many strong contestants raised their arms and shouted.
Because they knew, if Li Bingpeted, they had no hope of winning Pink Lover!
When the scandal broke out, Li Bing was expelled from the national team.
But over these eight years, Li Bing''s reputation in the shooting world hadn''t diminished but increased, participating in one shootingpetition after another!
Even a year ago, Li Bing won a championship in an international shootingpetition in the U.S., consecutively defeating multiple ace shooters from special forces, shocking the world!
If Li Bing were topete, the champion would be a foregone conclusion!
Thepetitors, thinking about this, protested even more.
Unbeknownst to them, the event organizers were struggling with the number of participants.
"Sorry, we don''t have this rule. Anyone who feels their dignity is insulted can choose to withdraw from thepetition themselves," the staff coldly said, shaking off Pye Daxing''s hand before turning away.
Pye Daxing and others turned pale, they participated in thispetition to win Pink Lover and sell it off to be rich overnight.
Who knew Li Bing would suddenly show up!
Who could guarantee they could beat Li Bing?
But...
They couldn''t juste for nothing!
They hadn''t even earned back their travel expenses.
Pye Daxing thought solemnly, if Li Bing was present, even if he couldn''t get the championship, he still had a good chance of getting second ce or something.
The prize money was several tens of thousands!
Many strong contestants thought the same way.
In the end, no one withdrew.
...
"Beautifuldy, I believe from these reactions you should know my financial capability and Li Bing''s strength."
"When I say Li Bing can win Pink Lover and I''ll buy it from him at that time, it''s not empty talk, it''s not arrogance."
Thest four words were said heavily by Liu Daming, clearly mocking someone''s arrogance.
"Buy? Rest assured, the one who will win Pink Lover will definitely be my beloved, not that Li Bing, and my beloved won''t sell Pink Lover to you." Lilith coldly sneered.
Liu Daming''s face darkened again.
This foreign woman is deeply brainwashed...
She really thinks the uncertified shooter beside her can win against the Grade Six Shooters on the field, win against Li Bing?
Liu Daming didn''t want to say much more to Lilith either.
A deeply brainwashed person can''t be persuaded.
He nned to use facts to show her who truly had the real strength to win the championship, who truly had the capability to buy that bouquet of Pink Lover!
Liu Daming walked up to Li Bing and talked to him about something.
Li Bing appeared unconcerned, as if he didn''t mind at all being a public target.
Smoking a cigarette, shaking his leg, he nced at Ye Huan briefly, then exhaled a smoke ring, turning back and saying:
"Don''t worry, the championship is mine, the one billion is mine;"
"That bouquet of flowers, I''ll win it and sell it to you, and then you can give it to that exceptional foreign woman;"
"''Conquer'' is the song she''ll sing to you after you give her the flowers."
Chapter 547 - 536: A Bye Round!?
Liu Daming smiled in satisfaction, patted Li Bing on the shoulder, and then went to the audience area to find a spot with a wide view to sit down and light up a cigar.
Smoking is not allowed in public ces, but since he is a well-known boss in Capital City, the staff didn''t dare to reprimand him.
After all, Daming Construction Materials Group is a leadingpany in the industry, backed by the Li Corporation, and not something ordinary people can mess with.
...
The shootingpetition started quickly.
Due to therge number of participants, over five hundred, the event organizers set up a new round to quickly eliminate some contestants, which was the gun assembly round.
For proficient gun users, licensed shooters, this posed no difficulty.
But for unlicensed shooters just in it for fun, it was very challenging.
After all, Huaxia has strict gun control policies, and most people have never even touched a gun, let alone assembled one.
The first round alone eliminated more than three hundred people!
The remaining contestants all had some understanding of guns and a certain level of shooting skills.
First ce, Li Bing, assembled a pile of parts into aplete QBZ-95 rifle in just thirty seconds!
This achievement broke the record of the Disney Shooting Competition, leaving the audience in shock and causing shooters like Pai Daxing to grit their teeth.
For Li Bing to participate in this shootingpetition, it was like dimensional reduction attack for them, simply outrageous!
The difference between a level seven shooter and a level six shooter is only one level, but this single level represents an almost insurmountable gap!
After all, Huaxia has dozens of level six shooters, but level seven shooters can be counted on one hand.
Second ce,st year''s Olympic champion, level six shooter Pai Daxing, took a total of forty-five seconds to assemble a pile of parts into aplete rifle, fifteen seconds longer than Li Bing!
Seemingly insignificant numbers actually highlight the overall strength gap.
The remaining third to tenth ces were all upied by prairie hunters.
Ye Huan... sixty-fifth ce, took one minute and thirty seconds!
Neither high nor low, apletely unremarkable result!
"Darling, is there any need to be so low-key?" Seeing Ye Huan returning with the assembled rifle, Lilith stepped forward and affectionately linked her arm through his.
"It''s better to be low-key. If you''re too high-profile, you''re more likely to get attacked while walking at night," Ye Huan said, causing Lilith to roll her eyes.
Ye Huan smiled and said no more.
He indeed intended to remain low-key; winning with an exceptionally high score would undoubtedly stir up a hugemotion.
At that time, the journalists present would not easily "let him go", and it would be incredibly annoying.
Ye Huan kept a low profile purposefully, but some people did not understand and only thought he spoke that way because he had thick skin.
Not far away in the audience, Liu Daming was crossing his legs, blowing smoke rings.
To be honest, upon hearing that the organizers added a gun assembly round, heughed out loud on the spot.
Without a shooting certificate, generally, one wouldn''t understand guns!
So he thought Ye Huan would definitely stumble in the first round.
Who knew Ye Huan actuallypleted the gun assembly and even secured not a bad result, sixty-fifth ce.
Liu Daming was very surprised, but upon hearing Ye Huan talking about keeping a low profile, he immediately showed disdain.
iming low profile due tock of skillridiculous!
Also, that girl is seriously brainwashed too much.
Seeing that kid get just an average ranking, she didn''t even question his skill but instead asked if there was a need to be so low-key...
Absurd.
Liu Daming silently criticized.
About ten minutester, the main event of thepetitionthe shooting match officially began, with the organizers conducting group draws and real-time announcements.
The shooting match is still knockout style, with head-to-head duels.
Liu Daming opened his phone and essed a gambling software interface.
This software is very powerful, capable of finding even the tiniest ofpetitions and allowing bets.
Liu Daming searched for the Disney Shooting Competition and immediately found it.
Moreover, due to live broadcasts and the hype around "pink lovers," this match had substantial attention and many bets.
[Eliminated contestant prediction: Choose one contestant you think will be eliminated this round, bet at least 100,000 yuan, and if the contestant is eliminated, the system will automatically return double the prize money. If the contestant is not eliminated, the bet money will be retained by the system.]
Liu Daming''s lips curled up.
The gun assembly round eliminated arge number of people; the remaining contestants, except for Ye Huan, almost all held shooting certificates.
Ye Huan, an unlicensed shooter, couldn''t possiblypete with licensed shooters in terms of shooting ability.
So even though the grouping wasn''t out yet, Liu Daming still mercilessly bet one million on Ye Huan, believing Ye Huan would definitely be eliminated!
By then, he''d one million, how great!
At the same time, Liu Daming opened the betting friend''s group and shared that Ye Huan was an unlicensed shooter.
Make money together!
In no time, the amount bet on Ye Huan being eliminated had reached over ten million.
Liu Daming grinned widely, feeling exhrated.
The feeling of winning money is just so wonderful~
Three minutester, the smile on Liu Daming''s face frozepletely.
"The contestant with a bye this round is: Contestant Ye Huan!"
At the shooting range, the organizers drew a piece of paper with a name from the drum.
"Damn, no way!" Liu Daming was so shocked that he braced one hand on the chair, stood up slightly, eyes widened, and couldn''t help but curse.
Out of 129 contestants, one would get a bye!
Who knew it would happen to be Ye Huan!
One million might not be much for Liu Daming.
But
Liu Daming wiped the sweat off his forehead.
There were quite a few social figures in the betting friends group, and if they got angry, the consequences could be unimaginable.
"Damn, got a bye? That kid''s luck is really good, cost me fifty thousand!"
Luckily, the big shots in the group weren''t angry, they just expressed their discontent.
After all, the bye situation was the organizers'' fault.
The 128-to-64 matches quickly finished.
Next was the 64-to-32 round.
The rules remained thirty bullets per target, with the highest score winning, but the target moved from 200 meters to 300 meters away.
The grouping was quickly announced.
The betting software updated in real-time.
"Brothers, just bet on Ye Huan losing, that''s it."
"By this elimination round, the remaining ones are at least level two shooters; there''s no way Ye Huan can win. Bet more to win back what we lost before!"
Chapter 548 - 537: This kid is definitely pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger
Liu Daming sent two messages in the group.
Then he bet five million on Ye Huan''s opponent to win and sent the screenshot to the group.
The big shots in the group followed suit, throwing in millions, saying they would treat Liu Daming to a good meal after winning.
In no time, the amount bet on Ye Huan''s opponent winning reached tens of millions.
Liu Daming was all smiles, knowing that getting along with these big shots was nothing but beneficial for his business.
A minuteter, the smile on Liu Daming''s face froze again.
Damn, you''ve got to be kidding me?
The match from 64 to 32 contestants.
Ye Huan actually advanced by a narrow margin of just one ring!?
This must be fake!
Five million down the drain!
Liu Daming''s mouth twitched, feeling a chill run up his foot.
Five million wasn''t a small amount; he felt some heartache.
But now wasn''t the time to be heartbroken...
Liu Daming hurriedly grabbed his phone.
Sure enough, the big shots in the group were already cursing him, having said they''d treat him a meal moments ago, now they''d already cursed his parents multiple times.
Liu Daming''s throat bobbled with difficulty as he sent a message.
"Please calm down, everyone."
"This kid only won by one ring, which only shows this is his true ability."
"In thest match, he was up against a level-2 shooter. It''s impressive that he won by luck, but this is as far as he goes. The remaining contestants after this elimination are all level-4 shooters and above; beating this kid is just a matter of time!"
"Haha, if there''s another mistake, you''re in for it!" one big shot cursed in the group.
Soon, the match from 32 to 16 started.
The rules remained the same, each person with thirty bullets, the higher score wins.
But in each elimination round, the target distance would increase.
This round was from 300 meters to 400 meters.
"Kid, now against a level-4 shooter, let''s see you lose!" Liu Daming''s eyes shed with a hint of malice.
He bet without hesitation on Ye Huan''s opponent to win, cing ten million, and sent the screenshot to the group!
The big shots quickly followed!
In no time, the amount bet on Ye Huan''s opponent winning reached nearly a hundred million!
Liu Daming''s palms sweated; he prayed that Ye Huan would lose!
Otherwise, those big shots would definitely make his life miserable.
Three minutester, Liu Daming almost passed out.
Ye Huan again advanced by a narrow margin of just one ring!
The big shots in the group were no longer cursing Liu Daming but posting photos of 40-meterrge machetes with fierce selfies.
Liu Daming was terrified, quickly sending a voice message to the group: "Guys, give me one more chance. In the top 16, other than Ye Huan, the weakest are all level-5 shooters! This time Ye Huan must lose!"
When the pairings came out.
Seeing Ye Huan up against a prairie hunter, a level-5 shooter, Liu Daming was overjoyed.
Prairie hunters made a living by hunting; no way Ye Huan could win again, right?
Liu Daming nodded secretly and then ced a bet on the hunter to win for twenty million on the software and sent the screenshot to the group!
This time, the big shots didn''t follow suit.
They all showed screenshots of betting on Ye Huan, but the amounts were rtively small, a few ten thousand each, clearly not trusting Liu Daming, expressing dissatisfaction and distrust, which made Liu Daming anxious.
He hoped Ye Huan would lose quickly, proving he wasn''t intentionally sabotaging the group!
Who knew...
Ye Huan again advanced to the top 8 by a narrow margin of just one ring!
Damn!
Liu Daming''s heart bled.
From the start to now, he had lost a full fifty million because of Ye Huan, half a billion!
And that wasn''t the worst of it!
The most important thing was...
"This Liu Daming is definitely a mole, screwing us over; I''ll have to find time to pay him a visit with a knife!"
"Later, bet on this Ye Huan, I made over a million just now."
"Yeah, bet on Ye Huan!"
Liu Daming''s heart convulsed.
Provoking these big shots, the consequences would be unimaginable!
He didn''t dare to voice his opinion anymore.
Instead, he gritted his teeth and, in the match from 8 to 4, bet ten million on Ye Huan''s opponent again!
The result...
"Again, just one ring, damn!" Liu Daming couldn''t help but roar in his heart.
This Ye Huan actually won against that prairie hunter by just one ring again!
What was happening!
Wasn''t this kid an unlicensed shooter?
How could an unlicensed shooter make it this far, consecutively defeating two level-5 prairie hunters?
This kid is definitely not an unlicensed shooter; he''s definitely ying a trick!
Liu Daming''s face reddened with anger as he nced at the WeChat group.
Seeing the big shots not only recouped their losses from betting on Ye Huan but also made massive profits, he was extremely jealous.
4 to 2...
The pairings came out quickly.
Li Bing against Pai Daxing.
Ye Huan against thest prairie hunter.
This prairie hunter was a level-6 shooter, like Pai Daxing.
Honestly, Liu Daming didn''t believe Ye Huan could win again!
But, strangely...
He chose to bet ten million on Ye Huan!
The result...
A windfall of fifteen million!
Again, just one ring!
Ye Huan won again by a narrow margin of just one ring!
How could this be!
Liu Daming won money but couldn''t believe it.
At this time, everyone noticed Ye Huan, who advanced to the finals with narrow victories all the way.
This was a dark horse!
"Wow, this is a dark horse, unknown yet making it to the final against Li Bing."
"Yeah, truly a low-key master..."
"No, it''s true that he has his own skills to reach this point, but luck also yed a significant role. His score in the semifinals was 288 rings, just one ring higher than the hunter''s 287. In the other group, Li Bing, no need to say more, scored a perfect 300 rings in every match from top 128 till now, and Pai Daxing, who faced Li Bing in the semifinals, scored 298 rings, ten rings higher than Ye Huan. So normally, Ye Huan could at most take third ce, not the runner-up, but due to the pairings, he avoided the stronger Pai Daxing, sessfully reaching the final and securing the runner-up spot. His luck is undeniable."
"Indeed..."
The audience nodded.
So did Liu Daming, thinking Ye Huan was just too lucky.
"Whew"
Exhaling a deep breath, he sent a message in the group: "Guys, this time, definitely don''t bet on Ye Huan. Li Bing is a level-7 shooter, scoring perfectly from start to end. Ye Huan being a runner-up is his best."
"Nonsense, you think we''re stupid? Of course, we''ll bet on Li Bing, I haven''t heard of any level-7 shooter in Huaxia named Ye Huan."
Saying so, this big shot sent a screenshot.
Betting a full hundred million on Li Bing!
Many big shots sent screenshots!
The most two hundred million, the least over ten million.
Liu Daming nodded, and he, too, started betting.
Betting on Li Bing, two hundred million!
Chapter 549 - 538: Divine Level Gun Technique?
Under the organizers'' announcement, the final match quicklymenced.
Thepetition rules had changed slightly.
To increase the viewing pleasure and excitement of the final, the two contestants would take turns shooting targets.
Targets can be chosen from a distance of as low as two hundred meters to as high as eight hundred meters.
The winner would be determined by the organizers''prehensive assessment of the ring numbers hit and the target distance selected by each contestant.
What astonished everyone was this.
The first to shoot, Li Bing, without any hesitation, aimed directly at the 800-meter target!
On the side, Ye Huan stared at the target 800 meters away, slightly frowning.
This Li Bing, his marksmanship is indeed good.
At this rate, it''s another perfect score of 300 rings.
This made Ye Huan a bit troubled; things were bing a little tricky.
He was confident he could defeat Li Bing, even if Li Bing achieved the perfect score, he could still beat him.
But if he wins under the condition that Li Bing hits the maximum score, it would certainly create a huge sensation.
But there''s no choice, no matter how troublesome, this championship must be taken!
Brother Huan does not want to go through the ordeal of shopping again!
...
"Bang. Bang. Bang."
A minuteter, the gunfire on the shooting range ceased...
The referee looked astonished and said:
"Contestant Li Bing, 300 rings, perfect score!"
After announcing Li Bing''s score, the entire venue fell silent, you could hear a pin drop.
Upon recovering, both contestants and spectators inhaled sharply, greatly shocked.
300 rings, that''s the maximum score, perfect score!
Li Bing hit it from 800 meters, which is the farthest target!
It''s important to know that the contestants are using a Type 95 rifle, with a maximum range of just five hundred meters.
Beyond five hundred meters, the bullet deviates from its trajectory due to ballistic and wind speed reasons!
Yet Li Bing hitting from 800 meters away, achieved such precise, perfect score results?
No wonder he is one of the Divine Level shooters that can be counted on one hand in Huaxia!
Pai Daxing and those Hunters looked extremely grim.
They''ve been in the shooting circle for a long time and knew Li Bing''s reputation well.
However, they never expected that Li Bing''s skill would be so formidable!
Indeed, as long as he''s around, others would justpete for the second and third ce, the championship would be a foregone conclusion!
"Sigh"
Contestants like Pai Daxing sighed repeatedly, feeling extremely regretful.
They came to win the championship, take back the Pink Lover, and then sell it, getting rich overnight.
Who''d know Li Bing suddenly emerged and imed the championship.
But there''s no alternative, Li Bing is strong, so they aim for the runner-up is reasonable, right?
Who knew even the runner-up was out of reach, taken by the dark horse named Ye Huan!
The most disgruntled was Pai Daxing!
He felt his luck was miserably poor.
Meeting champion Li Bing in the semifinals already!
If he had faced Ye Huan in the semifinals, he would surely have advanced, at least securing a runner-up!
Sigh, didn''t check the almanac before leaving home!
Too unlucky!
"Contestant Li Bing, what are your thoughts on winning thispetition''s championship?"
"Contestant Li Bing, after winning, is there anything you''d like to say to your opponents?"
"Contestant Li Bing, do you n to keep or sell the Pink Lover at, as General Manager Hu suggested, after winning it?"
After snapping out of shock, the reporters, even before Ye Huan had a chance to shoot, had assumed Li Bing as the champion of this shootingpetition, rushing forward to interview him.
Li Bing showed no expression, as if winning the championship was nothing worth being pleased about for him.
"No special thoughts. Because I knew, when I decided to join this Disney Shooting Tournament, the champion was already decided."
"As for my opponents? I just think they''re pitiful, if I weren''t here, the championship would have been theirs. But unfortunately... I am not a cat or dog that can be defeated."
"That Pink Lover is indeed to be sold at the price of one billion, to Liu Daming, the president of Capital City Daming Building Materials Group."
As Li Bing spoke, Liu Daming, with a cheerful demeanor, walked over.
After waving to the media reporters and greeting them, he took out the already written check from his chest, showing it in front of the live camera several times.
Causing numerous people to envy, looking at Li Bing with eyes of envy, jealousy, and hatred.
That''s one billion, Li Bing''s overnight fortune!
After disying the check for about two minutes on camera, Liu Damingughed heartily and handed the check to Li Bing, saying: "Contestant Li Bing, this one billion is my fee for purchasing the Pink Lover from you."
Li Bing expressionlessly acknowledged with an "Mm", pocketed the check, walked through the crowd towards the award podium near the door inside the venue.
At the very center of the award podium, there is a counter made of pure crystal.
Atop the counter was the flower arrangement, crafted personally by three top florists from Huaxia, looking very sacred the Pink Lover!
At this moment, the flower arrangement was surrounded by several pieces of purple crystal ss, unable to be taken out.
Li Bing approached the stage, and said to the event manager on the award podium: "You can take the Pink Lover out and present it to me now."
The event manager looked a bit awkward and said: "Sir, please don''t be hasty, once Ye Huan finishes shooting and the final results are out, we can truly determine the champion."
"Do you think it''s necessary? Let me tell you, that kid just got lucky in the draw, didn''t meet Pai Daxing, otherwise he would kneel in the semifinals."
"Being able to reach the finals by luck andpete with me, Li Bing, is already his honor."
"I believe..."
Li Bing, still expressionless, adjusted his cor and lightly said: "Seeing my Divine Level marksmanship, forfeiting the match is not impossible for him."
Chapter 550 - 539: Man and Gun as One
As soon as these contemptuous and arrogant words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar.
So arrogant!
Simply too arrogant!
However... Li Bing indeed has the capital to be arrogant!
Hitting a target eight hundred meters away with a 95 and still getting all perfect tens, this marksmanship is simply absurd!
Thepetition manager also believes that Li Bing is most likely the champion of this event.
But announcing the award to Li Bing without thepetition result is disrespectful to the contestant Ye Huan.
The principle of Disney Wondend is that the customer is king, and we cannot do anything disrespectful to customers.
"Sir, sorry."
Thepetition manager said seriously, "We haven''t received any request from contestant Ye Huan to forfeit the match, so thepetition must continue as usual. Please wait a moment, and after his final score is in, we can announce the champion and runner-up and distribute the prizes."
Li Bing was very impatient.
Liu Daming was the same, his face showing impatience.
If they could get the Pink Lover earlier, he could make that top-notch foreign beauty kneel and sing of victory.
He angrily scolded thepetition manager, "How can you not be flexible at all? Li Bing has shown the most extreme perfect score; how could that guy Ye Huan surpass him?"
"As I said, those are the rules. As an employee of Disney Wondend, I must adhere to them."
"If you can''t wait, you may leave."
Thepetition manager was somewhat annoyed by the reprimand, but did not explode, instead signaling towards the exit with a "please" gesture,
Leave?
A joke, they''re just about to get the flowers; leaving now would mean losing everything, leaving not even their underwear!
Li Bing and Liu Daming both snorted coldly and shut up.
Before long, bursts of gunfire echoed on the shooting range.
Clearly, Ye Huan had started shooting.
However, most of the people present were uninterested.
After all, with a champion whose record was so absurd, who would care about the result of a runner-up?
Just like most people only know the world''s highest peak, Mount Everest, but don''t know the second highest, K2.
The glory of the champion can infinitely overshadow the runner-up!
"Hahaha, what augh!"
Suddenly, there was a mockingugh in the crowd.
"Look, that kid is overestimating himself, shooting at the eight-hundred-meter target, the first shot''s a ten, but everything after missed, haha!"
Everyone became interested and looked towards the range, then all showed mocking smiles.
On the target eight hundred meters away, there was only one bullet hole in the very center, the ten-ring.
This indicated that all the other bullets missed!
Even Li Bing, who had been expressionless, couldn''t help but let his lips curve into a smirk full of mockery when he focused on it.
The maximum effective range for a 95-style rifle to maintain shooting uracy is only five hundred meters. Beyond five hundred meters, the trajectory bes very unstable, and without a special forces-level marksmanship, it can''t be handled.
To fully control it, at least a seventh-level shooter''s ability is required!
This Ye Huan guy is truly overestimating himself!
...
About a minuteter, the gunshots stopped.
A staff member jogged up to the award podium and whispered something into thepetition manager''s ear.
Thepetition manager looked surprised and gave the staff member a look that said, "Is this true?"
The staff member swallowed with difficulty and then nodded.
"Alright, I understand the situation. You may go down now," thepetition manager said in a steady voice.
After the staff member left, thepetition manager activated the floor microphone on the awarding stage.
"Buzz..."
After a piercing sound, thepetition manager cleared his throat and said loudly,
"I announce that the Disney Wondend Shooting Contest has nowe to an end!"
"Next, I will announce the specific rewards and the list of winners for thispetition!"
"p. p. p."
The audience apuded.
"In thispetition..."
"The champion''s prize is: a check for one hundred thousand yuan, a chain of 95-style gun model keychains, and the ultimate prize - the Pink Lover!"
"The runner-up''s prize is: a check for ten thousand yuan."
"The third ce prize is: a check for five thousand yuan."
"Prizes for 4th to 10th ce are: a check for one thousand yuan."
"The contestants from 4th to 10th ce are: Zhang Yuge... Ali Muto..."
"The third-ce winner in thispetition is: Pai Daxing, please invite Pai Daxing on stage to receive the award!"
Thepetition manager said with a smile, looking at Pai Daxing in the audience.
Again, there was apuse from the audience.
But Pai Daxing''s face showed no sign of joy.
Not only was there no joy, but he even spit on the ground with a face full of displeasure beforeing onto the stage.
It can be said that the prizes below the championship were quite shabby.
The third ce was also pitiful, only five thousand yuan, not even enough for decent soup.
After reaching the stage, thepetition manager immediately asked with a smile, "May I ask if contestant Pai Daxing has any eptance speech?"
"I just want to say, some contestants were really lucky."
"Originally, I would have at least been the runner-up."
"The prize in my hands would have been at least ten thousand yuan!"
Pai Daxing snorted twice beside the microphone, went to pocket the five thousand yuan check, and angrily walked off the stage.
For his words, almost everyone in the audience agreed.
Pai Daxing''s result in the semifinals was ten rings more than Ye Huan!
Only two rings short, he could have tied with Li Bing.
Ye Huan was ten rings short of Pai Daxing, only scoring 288 rings.
He had only won a single ring in the previous rounds.
In the final, he overestimated himself by trying to hit the eight-hundred-meter target, ending up with a ten-ring score!
Simply absurd.
If Pai Daxing had been ced in a group with Ye Huan in the semifinals, Ye Huan would have at most won third ce, and the runner-up would have belonged to Pai Daxing.
On the award stage, thepetition manager maintained an awkward yet polite smile before clearing his throat and saying, "The second-ce winner in thispetition is: contestant Li Bing, let us pping wee him!"
Chapter 551 - 539: Man and Gun as One_2
Apuse?
Nobody would apud a "viin" who took second ce by luck.
But
The next moment, everyone froze.
Li Bing?
Second ce is Li Bing?
Li Bing was also stunned, thinking he had misheard.
At just the right moment, the event manager spoke up with a reminder:
"Contestant Li Bing, pleasee to the stage to receive your second-ce prizea check for ten thousand yuan."
An uproar ensued!
What''s going on? Li Bing is second ce?
What''s the event management up to?
"Are you blindly talking nonsense? Li Bing is clearly the champion!" Liu Daming shouted from the audience.
Li Bing was also a bit angry at this time, ring at the event manager and questioning, "What do you mean by this?"
"Contestant Li Bing."
"There''s no denying that your performance was indeed impressive!"
"Butpared to contestant Ye Huan, you are just a ''tiny'' bit behind!"
"The champion of this shootingpetition is: contestant Ye Huan!"
"Contestant Ye Huan''s shooting score is: 300 points, a perfect score!"
As soon as the event manager said this, there was another uproar in the crowd.
The audience looked at each other, not understanding, their eyes slightly widened. They clearly saw Ye Huan only hit ten points; how did it be 300 points?
Li Bing was also taken aback.
Coming back to his senses, he widened his eyes in anger and questioned, "We saw with our own eyes, Ye Huan clearly only hit ten rings on the first shot, and all subsequent shots missed the target. Why are you falsely iming he scored 300 rings?"
"Contestant Li Bing, I can''t believe it myself."
"But to prevent cheating and ensure fairness and justice in thepetition, our event management set up two monitors."
"One monitoring the contestant''s shooting, and the other monitoring the target."
"Look at this surveince video!"
As the event manager spoke, he gestured to the backstage.
Two staff members carried an electronic screen to the stage, showing two videos simultaneously on the screen.
The left side was the surveince footage of Ye Huan shooting, and the right side was the footage of the target.
"Bang!"
After the first gunshot, a bullet hole appeared at the center of the ten rings on the target.
For the subsequent gunshots, no other bullet holes appeared on the target!
"Isn''t this a missed target?" Li Bing questioned.
The event manager responded calmly, "We''ll now enter the slow-motion segment of the video, please hold on."
Two minutester, including Li Bing, everyone''s faces on the scene were filled with shock!
After sixteen times slow motion, they finally saw clearly.
Every subsequent shot fired by Ye Huan didn''t leave a new hole on the target, not because they missed, but because each bullet precisely passed through the first, and only, bullet hole on the target!
This means every trajectory of his 30 bullets was identical, with no deviation!
But how is this possible!
The maximum range of a 95 rifle is 500 meters. Beyond that, the projectile is extremely difficult to control, even for Li Bing. After shooting, the ten-ring circle on the target bes riddled with holes.
Yet Ye Huan shot an 800-meter target, making every bullet trajectory identical, achieving a perfect score, with only one bullet hole at the center of the ten rings on the target?
This is like using an aim-bot!
No, even an aim-bot couldn''t be this urate!
The audience''s faces were filled with intense shock.
Including Li Bing and Pa Da Xing in the scene, all the experts'' expressions drastically changed!
Human-gun unity!
As experts in the shooting field, they know that making all bullets coincide is the highest state of shootinghuman-gun unity!
Li Bing and Pa Da Xing''s faces turned purple!
How can this be possible!
Human-gun unity is a realm that countless shooting experts strive for their entire lives but can''t attain, a realm they desperately pursue but cannot enter!
None of Huaxia''s level seven shooters can reach this level!
Li Bing hasn''t even touched the threshold!
Pa Da Xing, as a level six shooter, doesn''t even dare to dream of reaching that realm!
Masters who can enter that realm can easily defeat all level seven shooters in a minute!
Ye Huan?
This guy they looked down upon?
Wasn''t it luck that brought this guy to second ce?
Why, why can he make all bullet trajectories coincide, reaching the realm of human-gun unity!?
Why!?
Furthermore, was Ye Huan deliberately controlling his scores in the earlier matches to keep a low profile, winning by just one ring each time?
Only when Li Bing scored a perfect ring at 800 meters did he have to stop keeping a low profile, thus revealing his true skills?
Li Bing and Pa Da Xing''s faces showed an expression of disbelief!
"Impossible!"
"I think this video is fake, made by the event management!"
"How could Ye Huan''s shooting skills surpass Li Bing''s? I bet you guys set up a conspiracy, intentionally faked a video, and then gave the championship to Ye Huan!"
"As for your motives, they''re easy to guess!"
"You just used ''Pink Lover'' as an attractive gimmick and didn''t intend to really give it as a championship prize!"
While countless people were confounded and shocked.
Liu Daming, with his beer belly, pointed at the event manager and scolded him loudly. He didn''t understand what human-gun unity meant.
But he could see that Ye Huan''s marksmanship in the video was much superior to Li Bing''s, yet he couldn''t believe Ye Huan could be this good.
As soon as he spoke, Li Bing, Pa Da Xing, and other experts instantly realized.
Yes, videos can be fabricated!
Even if it killed them, they wouldn''t believe Ye Huan, who reached the finals by luck, could reach the shooting realm of human-gun unity!
"Your amusement park is engaging in false advertising. I''m going to sue you!" Li Bing angrily reprimanded!
The event manager was extremely anxious.
Reporters below were broadcasting the live scene. If Li Bing was allowed to speak freely, letting people think Disnend was conspiring in the dark, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The event manager hurriedly said, "Contestant Li Bing, our amusement park always operates with integrity, and would never resort to such dirty tactics!"
"Then how do you exin Ye Huan''s exceptional marksmanship? We don''t believe he could have such skills!"
"Unless the event management has him redo the target shooting in front of us to prove himself."
Li Bing said.
"Yes, let him prove it!" countless experts echoed.
"Contestant Ye Huan, may I ask" The event manager looked towards the back of the crowd, reluctantly saying, "May I ask if you can shoot the target once more?"
Everyone turned their eyes toward the back of the crowd.
Only to see a man and a woman walking over.
Ye Huan and Lilith.
"Shoot the target?" Ye Huan frowned.
He had already shot a target "without keeping a low profile" once, so doing it again didn''t matter.
Ye Huan said nothing, without even ncing at the target field, he raised his gun with his right hand and started firing towards the target field.
"Da. Da. Da."
After a series of shots
"..."
The entire scene was silent!
This time, Li Bing and Pa Da Xing''s eyes widened asrge as eggs, their legs trembling!
The audience was deeply shocked!
They had just been intently staring at the target field!
They clearly saw every bullet ejected from Ye Huan''s rifle precisely passed through the sole bullet hole on the target!
How is this possible!
The award ceremony tform was approximately 1,500 meters from the target, right?
With a 95 whose maximum shooting range is only 500 meters, how could it hit the target from 1,500 meters away, and every shot precisely hit the innermost circle of the ten rings, all without looking at the target!?
This isn''t aim-assist!
This is an ancient soldier...
No, this is a Jurassic soldier!
At the side, Pa Da Xing couldn''t believe what was happening before his eyes, but he had to believe it, as it was urring right in front of him!
Thinking back to the words he said with resentment at the award ceremony
Pa Da Xing only felt like a clown!
Luck?
Ye Huan''s shooting prowess far exceeded the pinnacle level of the current world''s shooting scene!
If it''s a matter of strength, one would definitely be overwhelmingly crushed!
Li Bing was utterly dumbfounded, his whole being in disarray. The tiny character he had never seen as significant now showed shooting skills dozens, even hundreds of times superior to his own!
Recalling how he epted media interviews as the "champion" after finishing his target shooting, expressing disdain and ridicule towards Ye Huan
Dang it!
The clown turned out to be myself!
Chapter 552 - 540: Immediately make his family fall apart and lose everything? Okay!
"Excuse me, could you award the prize to me now?"
Ye Huan, holding Lilith''s hand, walked through the stunned crowd to the award podium at the shooting range.
The event manager naturally had no objections.
"Mr. Ye Huan, this bouquet of Pink Lovers belongs to you and your beloved." The event manager smiled, stepped aside, and made a gesture of "please" towards the crystal disy case beside him.
As soon as the manager finished speaking, the crystal ss surrounding the bouquet descended and separated slowly, eventually forming a lotus shape that was very beautiful.
"Don''t just stand there, go get the flowers." Ye Huan whispered a reminder to the motionless Lilith.
"No, I want you to give it to me by hand."
Ye Huan was speechless: "..."
Having no choice, he stepped forward, took the Pink Lovers from the center of the "lotus," and then came back, presenting the bouquet to Lilith.
At that moment, Lilith smiled like a blossoming flower.
However, that stunning smile was hidden behind a mask, unseen by anyone.
"Let''s congratte contestant Ye Huan and his beloved for winning the bouquet Pink Lovers, designed and carved by three top florists of Huaxia with the theme of beautiful love!"
"May their lovest forever!"
"Let''s congratte them!"
The event manager said loudly.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Prepared cannons fired in the field, and ribbons slowly floated from the sky.
The loud noise from the cannons brought everyone, who was in a daze or shock, back to their senses.
The reporters held their cameras, "click click," taking pictures of Ye Huan and Lilith.
The audience apuded, the apuse thunderous.
There was envy, admiration, and self-deprecation in their eyes!
Envy, for Ye Huan''s victory of the Pink Lovers!
Admiration, for Ye Huan''s Divine Level shooting skills!
Self-deprecation, for not noticing such a top-notch sharpshooter from the very beginning!
They thought the champion would surely be among the former Olympic champion Pai Daxing and those Hunters, or the suddenly emerged Level Seven shooter Li Bing.
But unexpectedly, all these favorites were defeated!
The true winner was an unknown young man, a true dark horse!
Pai Daxing''s face was flushed, knowing he was a clown, he was the first to sulk and sneak off the field.
Li Bing''s face was extremely bad, ten billion... just gone like that!
A cooked duck was snatched by a suddenly emerging dark horse strongman!
Liu Daming...
Don''t mention how resentful he felt!
Two billion.
Before the match, he had bet two billion on Li Bing!
Now it''s all gone!
This "overconfident" kid really did win the Pink Lovers, just like the foreigner said, with ease!
The Li Bing he favored lostpletely! How ridiculous!
It''s gone, but he must not let the foreigner get away, otherwise, he would lose everything including his underwear!
"Stop!" Liu Daming shouted, stopping Ye Huan and Lilith, who were about to leave.
"Something you need?" Ye Huan gave him a cold nce.
For some reason, Liu Daming felt a bit scared when he met Ye Huan''s gaze.
He shook his head, steadying his mind.
Liu Daming snatched back the ten billion check he had given from Li Bing''s pocket, then jogged over to Ye Huan, handed out the check, and used amanding tone, "This ten billion, for your flowers."
Ye Huan''s eyes turned slightly cold; Liu Daming''s repeated provocations made him very unhappy.
Just about to speak.
Beside him, Lilith spoke first, in a cold voice, "I advise you to stop stirring up trouble here, or bear the consequences."
"Beauty, this kid just has some shooting skills, besides that, what''s his pointpared to me, Liu Daming?"
"With your figure, it''s a real waste being with him. Let me reintroduce myself."
"I, Liu Daming, am the chairman of the Capital City Materials Group, with a worth of tens of billions, which is still steadily increasing!"
"You should know Li Corporation, thergestpany globally. My Daming Materials Group has been on the big ship of Li Corporation since its establishment, and over the past twenty years, just by relying on Li Corporation, we''ve grown from an unknown small factory to the leader of Huaxia''s materials industry."
Liu Daming''s meaning was clear, and the audience started discussing it.
"President Liu is trying to snatch the woman in public. Do you think the beauty will say yes?"
"I think it''s possible. Contestant Ye Huan does have great shooting skills, but then again, shooting skills aren''t much use now in peacetime."
"In peacetime, money is king, and President Liu has a big family business backed by Li Corporation. He would never run out of money in a lifetime. If I were this beauty, I''d definitely be with Liu Daming."
"Yeah, in today''s society, status and money determine everything. No matter how good an ordinary man thinks a woman he has is, she will eventually be taken by a rich man..."
The audience was discussing, casting curious nces at Lilith to see how she''d choose.
Lilith, with an expressionless face, threw out a "strange" question coldly: "If Li Corporation cancels cooperation with yourpany, what would happen?"
Liu Damingughed and said:
"To tell you the truth, if that were to happen, Daming Materials Group would instantly copse, and I, Liu Daming would instantly go bankrupt, my family would break apart, and my wife and kids would run off with the neighbor."
"But you don''t have to worry, if you stick with me, you''ll live luxuriously your whole life. Li Corporation will never cancel cooperation with Daming Materials; our rtionship is tight. Also, Daming Materials Group recently signed a strategic partnership agreement with Li Corporation..."
Before he could finish, Lilith interrupted him coldly, pulling out her phone and making a call while saying, "Congrattions, this is about to happen."
About to happen?
What?
Liu Daming was momentarily confused.
What Lilith said next answered him.
"Mom, the chairman of some Daming Materials Group keeps harassing me and Ye Huan, saying there''s deep cooperation with Li Corporation, what do you think?"
"Deal with it immediately, make him go bankrupt and lose everything? Okay."
Lilith gave a sweet smile, put her phone back in her pocket, gave Liu Daming a cold look, and continued to walk out with Ye Huan.
"Stop!"
"You brat, really prefers the stick over the carrot!"
Coming to his senses, Liu Daming was furious at Lilith''s "bold words."
Mom? Lilith was a foreigner, so the mom she was referring to should be her mother-inw, Ye Huan''s mom.
Did this foreigner really think this kid was something extraordinary, with an impressive background? All he could do was shoot, what''s that worth!
Wanting him, Liu Daming, bankrupt and ruined, ridiculous!
Who was Liu Daming? An honored guest of Li Corporation, his rtionship with Li Corporation was very strong!
With just one phone call, cancel cooperation between Li Corporation and Daming Materials? Absurd!
Liu Daming blocked Ye Huan, impatiently, "Kid, hurry up, sell the flowers to me, then leave this foreigner behind!"
"p!"
"Ouch..."
Liu Daming cried out, a look of resentment shed across his eyes.
This kid, dared to p Liu Daming?
He was asking to die!
He stood up, preparing to teach Ye Huan a lesson...
"Ring ring."
A phone call came in.
Liu Daming took out his phone, seeing that it was a call from his secretary, he suddenly had a strange feeling, a fear deep in his heart.
He answered the call...
The next moment, "thud."
Liu Daming''s legs went weak, and he copsed on the ground.
"Chairman, Li Corporation has unterally canceled all cooperation with us!"
"Chairman, Li Corporation has notified the entire industry to boycott us!"
"Chairman, Li Corporation has asked the bank to recall all our loans, freeze all thepany''s ounts and your bank cards, and said if the loans are not repaid within three days..."
"They will seize thepany, repossess all your properties and vehicles, all your assets!!!"
Chapter 553 - 541 Real Big Shot!
"ng."
The phone slipped from his hand to the ground.
Liu Daming''s lips trembled.
Li Corporation, really canceled cooperation with Daming Materials?
And aplete industry ban? If Li Corporation notifies the entire industry to ban them, nopany will ever cooperate with Daming Materials!
The bank has recalled the loans, frozen thepany''s ounts, and even my personal funds?
They want to ruin me!
Why!
The Daming Materials Group and Li Corporation have always had a strong rtionship. Why would Li Corporation do such a thing?
There''s only one reason...
The mother-inw of that foreign woman is a significant figure within Li Corporation!
This figure can decide my fate with just one word, can decide the life and death of Daming Materials!
Liu Daming convulsed like a startled carp, his face showing extreme despair and fear.
"I beg you, grandma, grandpa, please spare me, I know I was wrong!"
Liu Daming threw himself in front of Ye Huan and Lilith, kowtowing repeatedly, his forehead quickly getting bruised.
Ye Huan, however, had no interest in dealing with him, kicking him away, sending him flying over ten meters, crying out in agony.
Just after he and Lilith left the venue not long after...
"Liu Daming,e out and face your death!"
"If I don''t chop you to pieces today, I won''t be able to show my face in the underworld!"
A few bald men with Cyan Dragon tattoos,rge and aggressive, barged into the venue with gleaming machetes in hand, followed by a crowd of over a hundred people.
Liu Daming had just recovered his senses when he saw this group, his face turning deathly pale.
"Alright then, go on, beat him up for me!"
With an order from one of the bald men, the hundred or so people started to mob Liu Daming.
These bald men were friends from the gambling group.
During the finals, they too believed Ye Huan couldn''t win, so they bet on Li Bing, each cing at least millions.
The result was aplete loss!
In their grief, they remembered Liu Daming''s message before the match: "Brothers, for this round, definitely don''t bet on Ye Huan. Li Bing is a seventh-level marksman, has been perfect from the start, and Ye Huan getting second ce is already the best he can do..."
Recalling this message, they shifted the me for their losses onto Liu Daming and came to the shooting venue seeking revenge...
Both reporters and audiences were equally frightened, secretly leaving the venue, still shocked in their expressions!
That phone call Liu Daming received, they heard it all clearly!
Li Corporation is really going to ruin Liu Daming as that Western beauty said!
Why could that beauty simply make a phone call and make Li Corporation suddenly strike against its former strategic partner?
It''s simple.
That beauty''s mother-inw is no ordinary person!
The Ye Huan with divine-level marksmanship has a background and influence far beyond Liu Daming''s!
No one could guess what the exact background is.
But everyone knows that anyone connected with Li Corporation is a big deal!
Anyone who can make a phone call and have Li Corporation strike against a former strategic partner is an extremely powerful figure!
This Ye Huan is definitely a top giant!
Behind him, there''s undoubtedly a very powerful force!
"Delete everything, fast, delete everything!"
Reporters frantically deleted photos from their cameras!
Are you kidding? If you dare post photos of a giant online without their permission...
That''s asking for death!
Someone who can make a phone call and bankrupt Daming Materials Group.
Can certainly make a phone call and bankrupt any media outlet!
At sunset, the golden sunlight spread over the earth.
After Ye Huan and Lilith left the shooting venue, they returned to their BMW in the parking lot.
Along the way, Lilith hugged her bouquet of pink lovers, joyously bouncing.
"It''s just a bouquet of flowers, is it really necessary to be so happy?" From the driver''s seat, Ye Huan started the car, somewhat puzzled.
"Of course I''m happy, this is your first Valentine''s Day gift to me, and this bouquet was designed and carved with love as the theme, its meaning is very different from ordinary flowers!"
"I really like it!"
"It makes me feel like I''m the happiest woman in the world right now."
Lilith''s face under the mask was full of happiness.
Ye Huan''s head was full of ck lines; he never thought a simple bouquet could mean so much.
He shook his head, dismissing the thought, and asked, "Alright, now that the flowers are in hand, should we head back to the hotel?"
"No!" Lilith snorted coldly, "Am I not beautiful, or is my figure not good, that you dislike staying with me so much?"
Ye Huan rolled his eyes, saying, "What are you talking about, I just don''t want to suffer through shopping again."
"That''s more like it. Now let''s go eat, after that you can take me back to the hotel."
"During yourpetition, I had Diana book us a table, it''s just right for us to go now."
Lilith said, showing Ye Huan the restaurant address Diana sent on WeChat.
Ye Huan nced at it and nodded in agreement.
As long as it''s not shopping, anything else is fine!
What he didn''t notice was the crafty gleam in Lilith''s eyes, as well as the bit of excitement!
After dinner, take her back to the hotel...
That''s nice...
But Lilith''s thoughts weren''t so simple.
Over the years, she had longed for Ye Huan almost to madness, and now met him by coincidence; she couldn''t be happier.
But with assassins lurking around, they must part ways again after this brief meeting!
Lilith was unwilling to return to the West with regrets, and she couldn''t simply "let go" of Ye Huan so easily.
So, she had prepared many things from day one, and this restaurant was one link of the n...
About ten minutester, as Ye Huan drove the car, his eyes slightly narrowed, and his brow furrowed slightly.
Lilith noticed this keenly and softly asked, "Dear, what''s wrong?"
"It seems someone is tracking us."
Chapter 554 - 542: Paparazzi!
Ye Huan noticed that a taxi had been following his BMW from the shooting range, keeping a consistent distance, neither too far nor too close.
"Let''s see," he said, stepping on the elerator.
The road they were on was an overpass, with a speed limit of 60 km/h, but most drivers, for safety reasons, kept their speed around 45 km/h. Therefore, it didn''t take long for Ye Huan''s BMW to overtake many vehicles.
But then...
A taxi also elerated to 60 km/h, closely following!
After driving some distance, Ye Huan began to slow down gradually.
Through the rearview mirror, he clearly saw the taxi also slow down, maintaining a constant distance from the BMW.
"Is it a hitman?" Lilith''s face turned slightly pale.
"Probably not," Ye Huan shook his head.
Even the most amateur hitman wouldn''t be this unprofessional in tracking.
Speeding up and slowing down with the target vehicle, isn''t that just outright exposing oneself?
"Not a hitman? Then who could it be?" Lilith heaved a sigh of relief but remained puzzled.
"Not sure yet, we''ll find out soon."
In the Capital City, at Riverside.
Riverside Restaurant, one of the world''s only three seven-star Chinese restaurants.
In the early evening, a BMW pulled up outside the restaurant entrance.
Ye Huan acted nonchntly and, with Lilith, got out of the car and walked to the restaurant door.
But just when the taxi stopped and the door had not yet opened...
Ye Huan grabbed Lilith, and they bolted in the opposite direction from the restaurant!
The blond man in the taxi was waiting for the driver to give him change. Seeing this, his face turned anxious, and he hurriedly got out of the car, sprinting toward the direction Ye Huan and Lilith had fled.
Yet he found that even at his fastest, the distance was steadily increasing.
Eventually, he couldn''t even see their silhouettes.
"Shit! They spotted me?" The blond man cursed, spitting on the ground, and swung his fists in frustration.
He had been tailing the pair all day, secretly taking photos.
But in the afternoon, when he followed them to the shooting range, the tickets were sold out, and the staff wouldn''t let him in no matter what he said.
He had no choice but to wait in a hidden spot for several hours, then followed Ye Huan and Lilith once more.
Who knew he''d be discovered this time!
The blond man let out a deep sigh.
At this time of night, Lilith and her boyfriend might go to a hotel to rest.
If he could snap some explosive photos and post them online, the benefits would be immeasurable.
But no luck.
They had vanished without a trace.
The blond man sighed again.
As he was about to leave, his gaze inadvertently fixed on the dpidated, messy alley beside him, feeling it looked suspicious.
He raised his camera and walked toward the alley.
But after just a few steps.
"Swish!"
A gust of wind brushed past, stinging the blond man''s face.
He realized his camera was gone, his expression changed, and he quickly turned to look to his left.
In the next moment...
"Bang!"
A dull thud.
"Ouch!" The blond man clutched his left side and fell to the ground, gasping in pain.
Ye Huan retracted his kick, nced at the photos on the camera, and said with surprise, "Dude, you''re quite dedicated. Been tailing us since early morning?"
Lilith''s charming face turned cold, her eyes slightly frosty.
Paparazzi!
Chapter 555 - 543: Street Rat, Social Death?
"Which media outlet are you from?" Lilith looked down at the blond man and questioned.
The blond man took several deep breaths, regaining hisposure, and showed an awkward expression: "Miss Lilith, I..."
"Tell me, which media outlet are you from, and what''s your name!" Lilith''s face was unweing; the first time going on a date with Ye Huan and they were already snapped by paparazzi, ruining her good moodpletely.
The blond man darted his eyes around.
The BBC TV station had a notorious reputation, constantly viting privacy in various ways, causing panic among celebrities worldwide.
Many stars, to protect their privacy from being exposed or dirty deeds from being dug up, pay a hefty protection fee to the BBC every year.
As long as he revealed his identity, surely Lilith and her boyfriend wouldn''t dare make things difficult for him, otherwise the BBC would make them pay dearly, possibly ruining their reputation.
Lorne got up from the ground, straightened his cor, and said calmly: "I am Lorne, a correspondent from the BBC stationed in Huaxia."
"I remember you, the one who secretly photographed me and Diana at the hotelst night and said goodbye before leaving, wasn''t it you?"
Beside them, Ye Huan remarked yfully, "As you wished, it''s truly ''goodbye'' now."
Lorne brushed off the dust from his clothes and said calmly:
"Mr. Ye, to be honest... I really don''t want to ''meet'' you again."
"But I hope you can understand me."
"I''m in this line of work just to earn a living. Before I post the photos of you and Miss Lilith''s date online, I''ll make sure to censor them. So, just return my camera quickly."
"Return it to you?" Ye Huan sneered, "Listening to you, even after being caught in the act of photographing us, you want the camera back and still intend to post our pictures online?"
Hearing this, Lorne''s face darkened immediately, he said:
"Mr. Ye, from what you are saying, does it mean you won''t return my camera?"
"There''s a saying in Huaxia, ''The prime minister''s belly can hold a boat,'' you''re a big figure as Miss Lilith''s boyfriend, can''t you be more magnanimous?"
"People like you shouldn''t bother with people at the bottom like us, right?"
"Taking some allegedly private photos and posting them online won''t cost you anything!"
"I won''t say much else, just return my camera. Before I release the photos, I''ll censor them so thoroughly that even your own mother won''t recognize you in them."
As Lorne spoke, he realized Ye Huan had no intention of returning his camera, and immediately thought Ye Huan was a petty man undeserving of being with Lilith, the dream love of countless men.
Just taking some pictures and posting them online, would it kill?
"Hurry up, give me back my camera." Lorne impatiently reached out, trying to snatch the camera.
"Bang!"
A loud crash.
Ye Huan gave Lorne no chance, directly smashed the camera in his hands, and stomped on the memory card that fell from it.
"..."
After being stunned for a while, Lorne red at Ye Huan and shouted, "What are you doing!"
"This is just a lesson for you, stop doing such despicable things in the future." Ye Huan said coldly.
"I''m just posting a few pictures online, will it kill you!"
"You really have no tolerance at all!"
"Besides, our BBC has a big family and vast business, high TV ratings. Posting your private photos gives you more exposure, understand?"
"Not feeling grateful to me is one thing, but giving me attitude and smashing my camera? I really wish I could beat you to death."
Lorne was fuming with anger.
The photos of Lilith and Ye Huan''s date were each worth a fortune, and now they''re all ruined. How could he not be angry?
Unable to hold back, heined to Lilith, "Miss Lilith, I don''t know if you''ve seen today''s news, but I need to tell you clearly,st night, I personally saw this little Ye having a secret meeting with your assistant Dianate at night!"
"What''s it to you? Besides, my Lilith''s man, do you think you can insult him?" Without saying another word, Lilith pped Lorne, then disgustedly patted her hands as if they were dirty.
Lorne staggered back several steps to steady himself, clutching his swollen cheek.
The priceless photos were gone, his camera was smashed, and now pped by a woman, he was utterly furious!
"Lilith, you dare hit me?"
"Don''t you know how powerful our BBC is? Do you not fear we will dig up your dirt and ruin your reputation?"
Upon hearing this, Lilith couldn''t help butugh.
Not to mention she had no dirt to dig up.
If the BBC dared to vite her privacy, the Divine King''s guards would instantly eliminate all rted persons and hold the English authorities ountable.
The behavior Lorne mentioned was essentially courting death.
Seeing Lilith''s indifference, Lorne grew even angrier.
His face darkened as he pointed at the two, threatening:
"Pay me 500,000, otherwise don''t me me for being rude!"
"Everyone knows the power of our BBC!"
"Let me tell you, I can contact our director directly. If you don''tpensate me for this loss, I will ruin your reputation..."
"Bang!!!"
With one p from Ye Huan, Lorne''s body flew over ten meters before stopping after rolling several times, the sound of the p echoed in the alley.
Lorne spat blood, his face was swollen like a pig''s head, even his own mother wouldn''t recognize him.
"I hate threats the most."
"If we were in the West, you''d be dead a thousand times over."
"This is just a lesson, if there''s a next time..."
Ye Huan''s eyes shed with cold light: "You''ll bear the consequences."
With that, he and Lilith, who wore a frosty expression, turned their heads and walked out of the alley.
At this moment, behind them came a resentful and angry curse from Lorne!
"You''re finished!"
"I''ll contact the director shortly, let him post the uncensored photos online fromst night''s meeting with Diana. Once Lilith''s one hundred million fans know you cheated, they''ll undoubtedly curse you profusely!"
"I will ruin your reputation!"
"And Lilith, I refuse to believe you have no dirt at all. Our BBC will dig up all your dirt and turn you from the World Celestial Queen to a rat scorned by all!"
The director?
The BBC director, wasn''t his name Stanley or something?
Ye Huan remembered, during his time in the West, this Stanley with no foresight once imed he would find someone to ruin him, but ended up with one leg crippled.
He even had to kneel and shout three hundred times "grandfather" for him to be spared.
Such a person could threaten him now?
Ye Huan turned his head, looked amused, "When you contact your director, tell him, I''m his grandfather Ye."
With that, he and Lilith''s figures disappeared from the end of the alley.
Lorne suddenly looked ted.
This Ye Huan dared to call himself the director''s grandfather?
This kid is finished!
With the director''s fiery temper, upon learning he was insulted, there''s no doubt he would dig out all this kid''s family''s information and disclose it online!
Then this kid wouldn''t only be cursed by Lilith''s hundred million fans, bing a street rat, his whole family would also face social death!
Satisfying!
Lorne let out a loudugh and made a phone call.
Chapter 556 - 544: The True Street Rat! The True Social Death!
UK, BBC headquarters, Director''s office.
Stanley, leaning on a cane, kept pacing in the office with a sour expression.
Ever since the news of Lilith''s assistant having a secret meeting with Lilith''s boyfriend blew up on the intest night, he felt an unexinable panic and palpitations.
What''s going on?
Logically, shouldn''t he be happy, celebrating with a toast?
This piece of news is exclusive, and other media must pay a fee to report it!
Moreover, Lilith''s massive fan base has exponentially increased the impact of this explosive news.
As soon as it was released by the BBC, countless media applied to republish it and paid the associated fees.
Throughout the night, the BBC raked in two billion dors, earning a fortune!
Stanley also receivedmendation from the financial backers behind the television station, with a chance to move into the management of therge group backing the BBC in the future.
At this point, logically, he should be happy, should be celebrating!
So why does he feel so panicked, so uneasy?
And why does this man look so familiar?
The photo in Stanley''s hand was a clear, unedited version.
Staring at the man''s profile in the photo, he inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity, and a... rising fear!
What''s going on!
"Ring ring ring."
The sudden ringing of the phone echoed.
Stanley wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, sat back in his office chair, picked up thendline phone, and said, "Hello?"
"Hello Director, this is Lorne."
"Lorne? What''s up? Do you have something to report?" Stanley asked.
Usually, an ordinary journalist like Lorne would not have the privilege to directly contact Stanley, but since he helped the station earn 2 billion dorsst night, Stanley temporarily granted him this special privilege.
"Director, I secretly took many photos of Lilith and her boyfriend on a date!" Lorne said from the other end of the line.
While Stanley was filled with joy, his anxiety only grew stronger.
"But... my camera was smashed by Lilith''s unreasonable boyfriend!"
"He... he even hit me!"
"Lilith also hit me and looked down on our BBC!"
Lorne added, crying.
Stanley''s face darkened.
Reporters out in the field represent the face of the television station.
Lilith''s boyfriend attacking Lorne is akin to pping the BBC''s face. Lilith dares to look down on the BBC?
Courting death!
"Moreover, that Lilith''s boyfriend not only hit me, he also... also insulted you!" Lorne added furiously.
"Insulted me? Insulted me how?" Stanley asked darkly.
"He said... he said..." Lorne stammered twice and then said, "He said he''s your grandpa, Grandpa Ye!"
"ng."
Upon hearing Lorne''s words, Stanley didn''t get angry, instead, he copsed to the floor, and thendline also slipped down onto the desk.
Upon hearing the three words, Grandpa Ye, he immediately understood why he felt a sense of familiarity when he saw that man''s profile in the photo, and immediately understood why he felt anxious at a time when he should be happy!
This man was the terrifying figure he offended three years ago!
At a high society gathering three years ago, Stanley got drunk and continuously verbally attacked and insulted the prestigious Huaxia man present, threatening to use his power to smear the man''s reputation, embroil him in public scandal, and even threatened to get people to ruin the man!
And the result?
Stanley''s own leg was broken on the spot!
He had to kneel and kowtow three hundred times, calling him grandpa three hundred times, barely managing to survive!
Due to losing a leg, Stanley was full of resentment andter tried to gather information about the man, to create some rumors making the man be a public pariah.
Who knew that just as the revenge n started, he received stern warnings and even death threats from the four major ancient western financial groups!
It was at that moment, Stanley realized he had offended someone immensely horrifying, and no longer dared to even mention revenge!
Who knew this time, he identally offended Grandpa Ye again!
How could the privacy of a big shot be something the BBC could casually disclose!?
And Lilith looking down on the BBC was only right!
Who is Lilith? The girlfriend of a big shot!
BBC is nothingpared to a big shot, and even less in front of the big shot''s girlfriend!
Stanley''s eyes were filled with fear. If those financial groups, especially the ones that threatened his life, found out that his subordinate was following him and his girlfriend without Grandpa Ye''s permission, infringing on their privacy...
His fate... would definitely end in a miserable death on the street!
Stanley''s whole body shivered, the hair on his back stood on end, and he felt utterly desperate.
"Director, sir, what''s wrong with you?"
"Are you very angry? Actually, there''s no need to be angry!"
"We just need to release those uncensored photos online, then have someone with that guy''s family information, and spread some rumors, letting his family socially die, and just dig out Lilith''s dirt too!"
On the other end of the phone, Lorne made a vicious suggestion.
Damn!
Lorne is adamant about getting me killed!
Stanley, furious, roared, "Lorne, if you dare make me offend Grandpa Ye, I will fire you, I will inform the whole industry to cklist you, make you infamous, and a public enemy!!!!"
After roaring.
Stanley''s face turned pale, and he dialed several more phone calls, continuously roaring:
"Notify the wholework, delete all ofst night''s news, if anyone dares not, cancel cooperation forever!!!"
"Fire Lorne, cancel all his pay!"
"Release a news report: ''BBC reporter Lorne, without the station''s permission, followed Lilith in Huaxia, infringing on Lilith and her boyfriend''s privacy, and faked the news of Lilith''s boyfriend and Diana through PS!''"
"At the same time, post Lorne''s photos and information online!"
"Let Lilith''s fans drown him in scorn, making him a public enemy!"
...
Got the director to offend Grandpa Ye?
Fire myself?
Have the entire industry cklist me?
Make me infamous, a public enemy!?
Lorne widened his eyes, full of disbelief.
What''s going on!
After the director got angry, shouldn''t he be doing this to Ye Huan and Lilith?
Why is he turning his anger on me instead?
It was as if he suddenly realized something...
Lorne''s heart skipped a beat...
Cold sweat beaded on his forehead.
Grandpa Ye!
What''s with the director, actually calling Ye Huan Grandpa Ye!?
Damn, can''t be serious!?
Lorne shivered all over, beginning to realize he might have offended someone incredibly formidable...
The director said I made him offend Grandpa Ye...
Lorne''s eyes suddenly widened again,rger than eggs!
Could it be that the director meant the business of following Ye Huan and Lilith, and the incident of secretly photographing Ye Huan and Diana''s private meetingst night?
If that''s the case...
Lorne, trembling, fumbled for his phone, opened the news app!
Sure enough!
The news about Ye Huan and Diana spending the night has already vanished from the web!
Recing that news is...
[BBC Television: Solemn Deration!]
[Our reporter Lorne, without permission, fabricated photos of Lilith''s boyfriend and her assistant Miss Diana sharing a room through PS and released them online.]
[Not only that, Lorne also privately tailed Miss Lilith and her boyfriend in Huaxia, causing an extremely adverse impact on their privacy and life!]
[To this end, our station, after investigating the truth, has withdrawn all news and dismissed Lorne, while sincerely apologizing to the parties involved!]
Below the news was Lorne''s personal information!
Photo, phone number, home address, all there!
Seeing these, Lorne''s face showed extreme despair and regret, even breathing became difficult.
He knew Lilith''s fans would drown him in spit!
He would be a public enemy, the target of everyone''s wrath!
Using the BBC to pressure Lilith and Ye Huan, to ruin their reputation?
Heh!
Ye Huan is the director''s grandpa!
Offending the director''s grandpa himself is courting death!
Chapter 557 - 545: Miss, The Money I Earn Abroad is for You to Spend!
Beside the Water, the restaurant lives up to its name, situated on the outskirts of the Capital Cityby the shore of Yao Long Lake, with an architectural style almost indistinguishable from an ancient pce.
As a seven-star Chinese restaurant, naturally, the expenses are astronomically high, with a minimum spend of a hundred thousand yuan per person for dining.
If it''s like this for dining, never mind the private rooms.
The most exclusive private room, Other Shore Pavilion, has a staggering minimum spend of one million.
Just for a meal!
"It''s just a meal, is it really worth spending so much money?"
Walking into the lobby on the first floor, Ye Huan''s mouth twitched as he saw the price list for the private rooms posted on the wall.
He remembered that the room Lilith reserved was the so-called Other Shore Pavilion.
One million!
Absurd.
"As my man, you can feel pain for anything, just not money."
"I earn money outside to leave for you to spend, to leave for you to enjoy. All you have to do is be handsome, like a pretty flower at home."
Lilith let out a humph, holding a bouquet as she headed upstairs.
Ye Huan followed behind, feeling like he had be someone who sponges off others, but he didn''t say much more.
Lilith indeed had no shortage of money, she''s a rich woman.
The only global star with over a billion fans, earning over a billion per concert, and selling more than fifty million copies of any song, Lilith had already ranked on the Forbes Billionaires List after umting wealth over the years.
Spending one million on a meal indeed wasn''t much to her.
Fifteen secondster, upon reaching the second floor, Ye Huan''s ears twitched slightly, and he suddenly stopped.
"What''s up with you? The private room I booked is on the top floor." Lilith noticed Ye Huan stopping and reminded him.
"Nothing, you go first, I''ll use the restroom."
Hearing Ye Huan''s words, Lilith was stunned, a look of surprise shing in her eyes. She said, "Then hurry, I''ll go up first."
Earlier, she was still thinking about how to get Ye Huan out of the private room to proceed with the next n.
Now it was perfect, Ye Huan had something himself, dying his return to the room!
"Heaven is helping me!"
Lilith''s mouth curled up, as she dashed upstairs.
...
"Damn, did you guys see the message Nan Third Young Master sent in the group? Two hours ago, the Capital City''s international airport was surrounded by thousands of special ops soldiers, not even a mosquito could fly in, and all flights during that time were either dyed or canceled!"
"When the passenger nended, eight of thetest fighter jets escorted it in the sky!"
"High-level members from other top-tier families went to check the situation, and they were turned away at gunpoint by the special ops soldiers, who wouldn''t let them in no matter what!"
"Holy shit, really? Such a big spectacle, which big shot ising to the Capital City?"
"Who knows, but you see, the photos Nan Third Young Master posted in the group are clearly taken from the inner reception area, so this big shot must have something to do with the Nan Family!"
"Rted to the Nan Family? No way, the Nan Family is a top-tier family, but not so influential to have special ops soldiers locking down the airport with such a grand spectacle."
"Are you stupid, the Nan Family isn''t that awesome, but think about it, which big ship is the Nan Family looking to connect with in a month?"
"I think the people from ''that big ship'' havee to the Capital City. They indeed deserve this grand spectacle."
That big ship...
As if something came to mind...
"Hiss" The five young men, dressed in luxurious clothes, sucked in a cold breath.
At this time.
"Gentlemen, dare I ask what''s the ''big ship''?" Ye Huan, who was standing nearby, asked out of curiosity.
He wasn''t really going to the restroom, he just overheard people discussing the Nan Family and Nan Zhen on the second floor and came over out of curiosity to listen.
The five young affluent men nced at Ye Huan.
Seeing that Ye Huan''s clothes were rtively ordinary, they lost interest, but still replied, "Dragon Gate Qin Family''s big shot."
There''s someone from Dragon Gate Qin Familying to the Capital City?
Ye Huan''s eyebrows raised instantly, his expression turning grim.
Could it be that old geezer Li Hentian had really contacted the Qin Family to discuss marriage alliances without his consent?
Ye Huan shook his head, he couldn''t be sure just yet.
He asked again, "Gentlemen, why is the Dragon Gate Qin Family suddenlying to the Capital City?"
The five young affluent men nced at Ye Huan again.
Initially, they thought Ye Huan was a low-key person.
After all, the expenses at Beside the Water are high, with each floor more expensive than thest. Those who can dine on the second floor of Beside the Water typically have a decent social status.
So, even though Ye Huan''s attire was ordinary, they still answered his question.
Now? Hearing Ye Huan ask this question, they began to suspect Ye Huan was just an ordinary person who had sneaked up to the second floor.
After all, the news about the Nan-Qin marriage alliance had spread across the high and middle circles of the Capital City. People who didn''t know about this news generally had quite an ordinary social status, and such people usually didn''t have the finances or capital to dine on the second floor of Beside the Water.
"Buddy, you''re not dining on this floor, are you?" One young rich man asked indifferently.
"Correct." Ye Huan responded, he was indeed heading to the top floor, just lingering on the second floor out of curiosity about the Nan and Qin families.
"Go, go, go, don''t disturb our chat!"
The young affluent men impatiently waved their hands, then gathered together again, continuing their discussion.
Ye Huan could feel a sense of awe.
But what these wealthy youths said answered his questions, so he kept silent.
"The Nan Family receiving the Qin Family at the airport means that the people from the Qin Family who came are here to discuss specific marriage alliance matters with the Nan Family!"
"s, with the Nan Family clinging to the Qin Family, they''re really going to make it big this time."
"Yeah, the Dragon Gate Qin Family, they''reparable to the Ye and Li families. In theing days, the Nan Family will surely soar high, possibly bing a super lineage family or even standing side by side with the Ye and Li families as a super family."
"..."
Through the series of conversations among the young affluent men, Ye Huan finally understood.
Nan Zhen, to satisfy his vanity and enjoy the maximum pleasure thates with unting wealth, created a WeChat group with members all from second or third-tier family descendants.
These people generally hadn''t seen as much of the world as first-tier family descendants.
Nan Zhen often posted luxury goods or some enviable items in the group, showing off and gathering numerous "666" and words of envy, jealousy, and hatred from the group members, obtaining a sense of satisfaction.
This time, Nan Zhen took the grand spectacle apanying the Qin family''s arrival and the fact that everyone couldn''t enter the airport but he could, as his unting capital, posting it in the group to show off.
The most surprising thing to Ye Huan was.
The Dragon Gate Qin Family was actually marrying into the Nan Family!
This Ye Huan truly hadn''t anticipated.
He thought the Dragon Gate Qin Family''s visit to the Capital City was due to Li Hentian inviting them to discuss the Ye-Qin marriage alliance.
Ye Huan got up to leave, not thinking any more about the Dragon Gate Qin Family since it was no longer rted to him.
At this moment, the young affluent men started discussing again.
"By the way, I heard the Other Shore Pavilion at Beside the Water was reserved. Do you think it might be reserved by the Qin family big shot?"
"I think it''s unlikely, Beside the Water is decent, but probably still not elite enough to host a Qin family big shot."
"Yeah..."
"But you know, the one who reserved the Other Shore Pavilion must be a big shot."
"Indeed, for us, spending ten thousand on a meal is painful, but a big shot spends a million on a meal without blinking."
The young affluent menmented how vast the distance between people could be.
But fortunately...
At least they were better off than some who sneaked in here.
The five young affluent men wore mocking smiles, ncing toward the spot where Ye Huan had been sitting earlier.
Hmm?
The five of them were all taken aback.
Where did he go?
"Mr. Ye, why are you here?"
"The Other Shore Pavilion is on the top floor, you should get going!"
Chapter 558 - 546: Apology Letter? Divorce Letter!
The receptionist, a female staff member who had seen Ye Huan before, knew he was a prestigious guest at the Other Shore Pavilion. Upon seeing him on the second floor, she thought he must be lost and kindly reminded him, her tone very respectful.
"Alright, I know. Thank you." Ye Huan smiled and headed upstairs.
On the second floor, five wealthy young men widened their eyes in shock and stood up involuntarily.
What, Mr. Ye, why are you here? The Other Shore Pavilion is on the top floor???
They couldn''t sit still any longer and rushed to the receptionist, asking, "What... what did you just mean? Could it be that guy is a guest at the Other Shore Pavilion?"
"Yes, along with him, there''s ady too." The receptionist did not hide anything, and after speaking, she turned and left.
Leaving the fivepletely stunned!
Damn, are you kidding me!
That guy is the one who booked the Other Shore Pavilion!?
The Other Shore Pavilion...
That''s a minimum spend of a million for a private room!
The five, being heirs from third-tier families, never spent more than tens of thousands dining out, and had never even considered a million-dor room.
Anyone who could afford to dine at the Other Shore Pavilion without exception is a bigshot.
The five wealthy young men winced, their expressions turning a bit sour.
That guy, dressed so ordinarily, is really just being low-key!
Thinking of how they sneered at Ye Huan after he said, "he''s not dining on this floor"...
All five of them blushed deep red.
This was truly clownish behavior!
Aside from being flushed with embarrassment, they felt a pang of regret!
Such a golden opportunity to curry favor with a bigwig, gone!
...
"Hmm?"
Just as Ye Huan reached the staircase to the top floor, he received a phone call and his expression turned grim.
"The three days are up."
"Quickly write a ''Breaching Marriage Apology Letter'' and deliver it to me. I''ll have someone ensure it reaches Miss Di..."
"When writing, make sure to clearly state it was you first who breached the arranged childhood marriage agreement by getting involved with another woman."
"Also, express sincere apologies to Miss Di in the letter."
"I''ll have someone pick it up from the Tingxiang Pavilion tomorrow morning."
On the other end of the line, Li Hentian''s tone was full ofmand.
After speaking, he hung up the call.
Ye Huan''s face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. Li Hentian, the old man, was so used to giving orders, he dared to order him around too?
And make him apologize?
The childhood marriage wasn''t even his idea!
Ye Huan muttered a few curses under his breath, then let out a cold snort.
He wouldn''t fulfill Li Hentian''s wishes.
An apology letter is out of the question!
But a break-up letter could happen!
After putting away his phone, Ye Huan headed to the private room.
As he passed by a workspace, a rather clumsy female staff member happened to rush out, carrying an iron tray and identally bumped into Ye Huan''s right arm. Due to inertia, she bounced back a bit, and the tray, along with a fine blue-and-white porcin teapot and two water-filled cups on it, fell towards the floor.
The female staff member screamed and tried to catch them.
With quick reflexes, Ye Huan supported the tray with one hand and caught the teapot and water-filled cups with the other.
Then, Brother Huan ced the teapot and water-filled cups back on the tray and handed it back to the female staff member.
"Sir, thank you so much, thank you so much!" The female staff member thanked him repeatedly with bows.
This blue-and-white porcin teapot is an authentic antique specially supplied by the Other Shore Pavilion, worth millions. If it broke, even selling her whole self wouldn''t be enough topensate.
"No worries, just be careful next time." Ye Huan casually waved it off, then, as if remembering something, asked, "Are these teaware supposed to be delivered to the Other Shore Pavilion?"
"Yes." The staff member nodded.
"I happen to be going there, give the items to me, so you don''t have to trouble yourself," Ye Huan said, reaching out to take the tray.
For some reason, the female staff member suddenly looked panicked, beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and she quickly dodged, awkwardly smiling, "Sir, it wouldn''t be polite. You go ahead first; I still need to make some preparations and will bring the teaware to you and Miss Lilithter."
Ye Huan felt a bit puzzled, but didn''t say anything further. He nodded and continued towards the Other Shore Pavilion.
The female staff member breathed a sigh of relief, yet her face turned somewhat pale.
Oh no!
She hadn''t managed to deliver the teaware and water Miss Lilith requested before Ye Huan arrived at the Other Shore Pavilion.
Also, earlier when Ye Huan caught the cups and ced them back on the tray, she hadn''t noticed which cup was which, leaving her now clueless.
Among them, one cup''s water is quite "special"!
The worst part is that the substance is colorless and odorless,pletely indistinguishable when dissolved in water.
As for drinking...
The waiter didn''t dare; she wasn''t sure what exactly the "powder" Lilith gave her was for.
Helpless, she gritted her teeth, rummaged through the indoor trash can, and retrieved a small finger-sized bag from it.
The waiter felt disheartened.
The bag was empty, not a bit of powder left, so she couldn''t prepare another ss of water with "powder."
No choice; she''ll have to exin the situation to Miss Lilithter.
...
"Why did you arrive so quickly!?"
As Ye Huan just entered the private room, he heard Lilith exim in surprise.
"Why, can''t Ie?" Ye Huan replied irritably.
"No..."
Lilith''s gaze shifted evasively back and forth.
She was a bit caught off guard.
Why hasn''t the waiter brought over the teapot and cups yet? Logically, it should be about time!
What''s going on!
Lilith drummed her fingers on the table, looking distracted.
"What''s wrong with you?" Ye Huan noticed her strange behavior and asked.
"Nothing... Why hasn''t the watere? I clearly told the waiter to bring it over, I''m dying of thirst." Lilith said.
"Oh, don''t worry about that. When I came upstairs, she was just running out of the studio, bumped into me nearly slipping, she''s probably organizing the teapot and cups now..."
"What!" Before Ye Huan could finish, Lilith suddenly pped the table, red, and loudly asked, "The water, it wasn''t spilled, right?"
She only brought one bag of that stuff. If the waiter collided with Ye Huan and spilled it, all her preparation would have been in vain.
Ye Huan suddenly looked suspicious.
Lilith''s reaction was too strange!
"It spilled."
As soon as Ye Huan said this, Lilith deted like a punctured balloon, slumping back into the chair.
"Kidding you, it didn''t spill, I helped her catch the cup and teapot." Ye Huan added.
Lilith was relieved.
After a sigh of relief, she noticed Ye Huan''s suspicious gaze fixed on her, causing her to be embarrassed, constantly avoiding eye contact.
Was it just a pot of water that made Lilith so strange?
Could it be...
Ye Huan''s face darkened, recalling how Lilith made him drink waterced with a hundred pounds of potent medicine a few years back...
He couldn''t help but feel a chill down below!
He was about to ask...
"Knock. Knock. Knock."
After three knocks, a waiter entered the private room with a tray, smiling awkwardly: "Miss Lilith, I''m a bitte, sorry."
Lilith said nothing; she first nced at the cup, then the waiter, with an obvious hint in her eyes.
As if asking, "Is the water mixed?"
The waiter nodded secretly, then gave Lilith an apologetic look and nced at the two cups.
She was saying, "Miss Lilith, the water''s mixed, but the two cups got mixed up, sorry..."
However, Lilith understood it as, "Miss Lilith, I''m sorry for beingte."
"No worries, you can go now." Lilith waved her hand.
To the waiter, it sounded like Lilith didn''t mind the mix-up...
Feeling pleased, she left.
The exchange of nces between the two did not escape Ye Huan''s eyes.
"Lilith, you put something in my water again, didn''t you?" Ye Huan sternly questioned.
"No, how could I, am I that kind of person?"
"If not, then exin why the two cups of water the waiter brought are full. Normally, wouldn''t they give empty cups?"
Ye Huan''s question made Lilith''s expression be unnatural.
Her n was for the waiter to bring the water before Ye Huan entered the room, so if he asked, she''d say she poured the water herself.
But now, this situation waspletely unexinable!
"If there''s something in it, I''ll know with a sniff." Nearby, Ye Huan picked up the cup closest to him and sniffed it.
Lilith was already panicking.
The next second, her face lit up with joy!
"What, there''s nothing in it!?"
Chapter 559 - 547: Enough to take down 50 elephants!
Ye Huan was a bit taken aback; he could tell that this water was just pure water, without any so-called strong drug.
"Nonsense, do you think I''ve got nothing better to do than drug you?"
"ndering me, I''ll remember this."
"If you suspect me, then don''t drink this water!"
Lilith pretended to be angry, snorting as she picked up the ss of water near her, using the act of drinking to hide her guilty conscience.
This time, the drug she used was far more advanced than the one she used on Ye Huanst time!
The effect of one gram could rival the potency of a hundred pounds of thest drug!
And, it was colorless and tasteless, easily dissolved in water!
Lilith''s lips curled up secretly; she hadn''t expected Ye Huan to be unable to detect the taste of the drug.
It seems like I have to get more of it in the future...
Ye Huan''s face darkened slightly as he took a sip of water.
There''s no such thing as apletely tasteless substance in the world, at most something with a taste so light that people''s taste buds can''t detect it.
But as the God of ughter in the Dark World, all his bodily senses, including taste, were far superior to ordinary people, so he could easily discern these "tasteless" things.
Yet as the water went down, Ye Huan was a bit puzzled.
It was really just pure water.
Could it be that...
Lilith truly hadn''t drugged him, and he was just being too sensitive and misunderstanding her?
Was she really that thirsty earlier?
Quite possible!
Ye Huan nced at Lilith, who was gulping down water, finishing one ss and filling another, looking really, really thirsty, and immediately dismissed his doubts.
"Sorry, I was too sensitive just now." Ye Huan apologized.
Lilith snorted coldly, yet felt secretly pleased inside.
This drug was indeed powerful enough that even Ye Huan couldn''t detect the taste!
"Are you really that thirsty?" After a few minutes, Ye Huan asked.
In those few minutes, Lilith drank water like a person dying of thirst, ss after ss, until she directly picked up the kettle and drank from it.
"Very thirsty!"
"Waiter, another pot!"
Lilith felt strange.
She inexplicably felt hot, her mouth parched and her tongue dry.
Drinking water only provided temporary relief; soon that parched feeling would intensify even more.
Quickly, the waiter brought another pot of water.
Lilith''s breathing became a bit rapid, and she looked at the kettle with longing.
One gulp!
This scene startled Ye Huan significantly.
"If you keep drinking like this, your kidneys won''t be able to handle it." Ye Huan reminded.
"I''m just really thirsty, what else can I do."
Lilith''s temper became a bit irritable.
After calling the waiter for more water again, she went to the restroom and washed her face with cold water.
For a moment, the parched feeling subsided somewhat.
Back in the private room, she took another big swig from the teapot.
"What''s going on, the more I drink, the thirstier I get!" Lilith looked at the empty teapot in confusion.
"Maybe eating something will help." Ye Huan also found it strange and ced a slice of Capital City roasted duck for Lilith.
Lilith ate a piece but felt it was useless.
Her cheeks started turning red.
"What''s going on, why is the temperature in this private room so high?" Lilith''s breathing quickened as she swore.
"There''s no air conditioning on here."
"Besides, the weather report says it''s 7 degrees, so it''s impossible to be hot."
"Are you having a fever?"
Ye Huan frowned, stood up, and touched Lilith''s forehead.
As soon as he touched it, he was shocked!
Hot as boiling water!
But something was off...
Ye Huan''s frown deepened, his hand remained on Lilith''s forehead, feeling peculiar.
He could sense that Lilith''s body was entirely normal, without any illness.
Not right...
Ye Huan felt theworks of veins and blood vessels in Lilith''s abdomen, incredibly warm!
These symptoms...
Could it be...
Ye Huan''s heart skipped a beat, looking down at Lilith beneath him...
In that moment, a low growl belonging to Lilith echoed in the room!
And then...
"Thud!"
Ye Huan was knocked over by Lilith, with his eyes covered by something!
Damn!
This isn''t the weight an ordinary man can bear!
Simply outrageous!
Ye Huan was shocked for a brief moment and then understood.
Lilith wasn''t having a fever; she drank drugged water!
"Lilith, did you drug the water?" Ye Huan questioned.
At this moment, Lilith couldn''t deny it; she also knew it was the drug taking effect causing her current state.
Her eyes were dazed; as she admitted, she was puzzled: "I...I drugged your cup, how...how did I end up drinking it?"
