Qiu Wan shyly wriggled in Ye Fan’s arms before finally getting out of bed to get dressed, “Xiao Fan, do you want breakfast? I’ll make it right away!”
Qiu Wan indeed was a very gentle and virtuous candidate for a wife. Ye Fan shook his head, “No need, I have to deal with some things. You rest for a while, and go report to work at Nether Group!”
“Okay!”
…
Lovette had set up the operation headquarters in Guo Corporation. Just as Ye Fan and Guo Li stopped at the entrance, a strapping young man came rushing over, “Big Brother! You’ve kept me in the dark for so long… You should have told me earlier, I was worried to death!”
The person who arrived was none other than Wang Fugui, Ye Fan’s brother in life and death.
In such a dire situation for the Ye Family, where everyone chose to distance themselves, Wang Fugui had always firmly stood by Ye Fan’s side, always the first to step forward and protect Ye Fan when he was bullied.
Ye Fan was truly grateful for this brother.
“Isn’t that because I was afraid you’d spill the beans, compromising everything? If I’d told you earlier, probably the whole world would have known on the day of the funeral!” Had Ye Fan’s identity been exposed that early, it would not have been possible for him to smoothly deal with the internal enemies within the Ye Family, the families from Cloud City—the Zhao family, the Li family, the Wang family, and Xu Jian and his son.
Nor would he have been able to follow the vine to find the hidden masterminds, Zhang Heng and Tang Zheng!
After all, at that time, in everyone’s eyes, Ye Fan was just a fool, and nobody would be on guard against him.
If the news of Ye Fan’s awakening had leaked at that time, and Ye Fan’s strength was still at the Martial Venerable Realm, those archenemies of the Ye Family would have been on alert and surely sent their strongest experts to deal with Ye Fan directly.
Then, if Elder Zhang’s subordinate, Captain Chu Feng, had personally come with his team, Ye Fan really wouldn’t have been a match for them.
“Cough cough! Big Brother, you don’t trust me enough… Am I that kind of person? Right… Big Brother, I have to tell you, today someone familiar learned of the news and came with me… look…” As Wang Fugui spoke, he pointed towards the entrance.
There, a stunningly beautiful woman clad in a red dress approached with confident steps.
It was none other than Xuan Yufei!
“…” Ye Fan was inwardly speechless. Just now, Wang Fugui claimed he wasn’t a blabbermouth, yet Guo Li had only just informed him, and he turned around and told Xuan Yufei!
Sigh!
Ye Fan wasn’t yet ready on how to face Xuan Yufei, and in Provincial City, Qing Ruolan and Yu Linglong were also around.
With so many girls here, and Wang Fugui bringing Xuan Yufei over, wasn’t this creating an Asura Field for him?
“Brother Fan!” Xuan Yufei stood in front of Ye Fan, gazing at him affectionately, her eyes almost brimming with water.
Xuan Yufei was full of regret now. What was she thinking at that time? Why did she listen to her uncle’s words and call off the engagement at the Ye family’s funeral?
“I’m sorry about before!” As Xuan Yufei spoke, she bent down to give Ye Fan a deep bow.
Today, Xuan Yufei was wearing a red dress with a very low neckline. As she bent over, the landscape that presented before Ye Fan’s eyes was a vista of many gorges…
Such an apology indeed showed sincerity!
Ye Fan took a long look, reminiscing over the various beautiful memories of growing up together with Xuan Yufei, feeling very conflicted.
Considering their past affection, Ye Fan’s heart couldn’t bear to be harsh with Xuan Yufei!
Moreover, the last time Su Yixue was kidnapped, Xuan Yufei had taken the initiative to rush up to protect her, showing no fear for her life, which touched Ye Fan deeply.
But the thought of the day of the funeral, in the Ye Family’s dire situation, when Xuan Yufei’s uncle, Xuan Zhengguo, publicly announced the withdrawal from their engagement and Xuan Yufei made no objections, implicitly consenting to call it off, weighed on him.
Although Ye Fan had realized the existence of The Technique of Soul Capturing within Xuan Yufei’s body, he still couldn’t bring himself to forgive her so easily.
“No need to apologize! Whatever happened before, I’ve already forgotten!” Ye Fan said indifferently, his casual tone causing Xuan Yufei to stiffen.
Had she really hurt him too deeply?
Sigh!
What could she possibly do to earn Ye Fan’s forgiveness?
At the funeral, she really hadn’t meant to do it!
With the annihilation of the Ye Family’s ten core disciples, Ye Fan had been lost in folly for five years, unable to see any future hope. His father was seriously ill and unconscious, his second uncle was in control of the whole situation, and she was forced to break off the engagement. What could she possibly do?
Moreover, Xuan Yufei herself didn’t understand how, but her memories of the events at that time were incredibly vague, as if someone else had been speaking in her place.
“Let’s go! Let’s go in first!”
As Ye Fan spoke, he stepped towards the inside.
Behind him, Guo Li and Wang Fugui exchanged glances and both helplessly shook their heads.
As the “Three Musketeers” who had grown up together, they had witnessed the childhood love between Xuan Yufei and Ye Fan and how good their relationship had been all along. After going through so much, they now faced such a tragic outcome.
Both of them couldn’t bear it!
“Sister-in-law, Big Brother still hasn’t untied the knot in his heart,” Wang Fugui let out a long sigh and said to Xuan Yufei, “But don’t worry, Sister-in-law. Big Brother definitely has you in his heart. Otherwise, why would Big Brother have woken up so early? When Li Yunyang was about to engage you, Big Brother wouldn’t have gone there… let alone have killed Li Yunyang on the spot… umm…”
Mid-sentence, Wang Fugui quickly covered his mouth with his hand, looking bitterly at Guo Li, “Scholar Guo, did I speak out of turn again?”
“You,” Guo Li shook his head helplessly, following Ye Fan while leaving Wang Fugui to chastise himself.
Was Big Brother right?
Am I really such a blabbermouth?
Xuan Yufei, an intelligent girl as clear as ice and snow, grasped the crux of the issue immediately, even though Wang Fugui had only spoken a few words. Ye Fan had already woken up at the time Li Yunyang was about to engage her? And at that time, it was Ye Fan who had stepped in to save her!
At that moment, Xuan Yufei had thought it was Li Hu and Xia Hao who acted on behalf of Ye Fan… But now it seemed that Ye Fan had already awakened then and had gone to rescue her from the inferno. It must have been Ye Fan.
Ye Fan indeed had her in his heart!
Having realized this, the gloom on Xuan Yufei’s face disappeared instantly, and she smiled radiantly, as if the snow of a harsh winter had melted away, refreshing the heart.
As long as Ye Fan didn’t hate her that much, by behaving well in the future, he would surely forgive her… This time, she couldn’t make the wrong choice again!
“Brother Fan, wait for me!” With a smile on her lips, Xuan Yufei was not coming to Flower Capital empty-handed this time.
Having learned yesterday that the Ye Family was going to engage in a financial battle with the Zhang family, Xuan Yufei, worried that the Ye Family might not have enough funds, had directly arranged for a hundred billion from Xuan Corporation to support Ye Fan.
Inside the Guo Corporation meeting room, as soon as Ye Fan and Guo Li and the others stepped into the hall, a burly man with a beard enthusiastically rushed up to embrace Ye Fan, “Young Master Ye, five years without seeing you, I’ve missed you terribly!”
This bearded man was Lovette, a financial tycoon from Beautiful Country. Seeing Xuan Yufei behind Ye Fan, Lovette happily exclaimed, “Young Master Ye has a virtuous partner indeed! Just now, Miss Xuan arranged a hundred billion in funds, and with that against the Zhang family, our victory is assured! Miss Xuan and Young Master Ye, you are both so talented and graceful, a match made in heaven, ha ha…”
