Z4 stopped halfway up the mountain, and Ye Xiaofei stood outside the car, waving at Fei Hu at the top of the hill. Initially furious, Fei Hu saw that Ye Xiaofei had not left but was waiting for him on the slope. His anger dissipated instantly; a real man should be broad-minded. After all, it was just a short run. It could even be considered a bit of off-road training for himself.
Running downhill was much easier. Looking at the Z4 less than a hundred meters away, Fei Hu felt like he could leap over in one bound and lie down on it for a good rest. Fifty meters, ten meters—finally, he reached it. Just as Fei Hu was panting and reaching for the car door, the Z4 let out a light beep and darted away like an arrow, disappearing around a bend.
"Ah..." Fei Hu's angry voice echoed through the mountains. He had been toyed with by this woman once again. He realized that a man's resistance to beautiful women was nearly zero. No wonder throughout history there has been talk of heroes falling for beautiful women. It seemed he had been conquered by her beauty, losing his usual judgment.
In frustration, Fei Hu punched a small tree by the roadside. The impact was so strong that the tree trembled violently. Suddenly, a piece of paper fluttered down from the tree. Fei Hu paused and slowly picked up the note, which read in neat handwriting: "Pervert, this is your deserved punishment. If you get angry and punch this tree, it means you are a narrow-minded pervert. If you don't punch it, then you're just a lecher. Hehe! I didn't expect you to be quite fast; keep it up! See you at the company."
Fei Hu was nearly driven mad with anger; this woman was truly infuriating—punished and insulted all at once! He felt like she was playing him like a fool. No way! Since she said I’m either a pervert or just lecherous, I’ll show her what I really am; I won’t let her look down on me. As he ran back, he vowed in his heart, "Ye Xiaofei, just wait! I won't let you off easily; I will definitely roll in bed with you." With that thought, Fei Hu felt renewed strength in his legs and began to run faster.
By around two in the afternoon, drenched in sweat, Fei Hu stood in the lobby when Helena walked by and exclaimed, "What happened to you? Weren't you supposed to be out with Miss Ye to test drive the new car? How did you end up like this?"
Fei Hu forced a smile and replied, "It's nothing; I haven't exercised in a while and just went for a run."
Noticing that Fei Hu seemed unhappy, Helena didn’t press further and took her documents upstairs.
Suddenly, the phone on the desk rang. Fei Hu irritably picked it up: "Hello! Lobby here; who are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for you! I heard you’re back; that's great! It’s not much slower than my BMW. How about another round? This time I'll drive further so you can make it back by tomorrow morning," came Ye Xiaofei's cheerful voice from the other end.
Realizing it was Ye Xiaofei, Fei Hu felt an urge to pounce on her and bite her beautiful face to vent his frustration.
"Oh! A real man is actually angry! I was just joking with you; can’t take a little fun?" Ye Xiaofei laughed heartily.
Fei Hu thought to himself that the more angry he got, the happier Ye Xiaofei would be because that was exactly what she wanted. If he didn’t get angry, perhaps she would have no way to provoke him further. At least today’s plan had failed; it hadn’t worked on him at all. With that thought, Fei Hu burst into laughter: "Miss Ye, look at what you're saying! Although my status is lower than yours, my mind is broad enough; don’t think that just because I can run fast that you can outrun me in your car!"
"You just keep bragging! I didn’t expect you to be not only lecherous but also good at pretending; you'd be missing out if you didn’t become an actor," Ye Xiaofei replied without laughing this time. It seemed Fei Hu's guess had been correct.
With one effective move, Fei Hu knew what to say. He chuckled and spoke into the microphone, "How does Miss Ye know that I'm good at running? To be honest, this distance is nothing for me. When I was young, I used to hunt in the mountains with my grandfather, running dozens of miles on mountain paths. Ah! It's been a long time since I've run so freely. Today, I have to thank you. I wonder if I could invite you to dinner tonight..."
Just then, as Fei Hu was enjoying himself, Ye Xiaofei abruptly hung up the phone, nearly causing him to burst out laughing. It seemed this woman had her weaknesses too; it looked like he couldn't be too serious when dealing with her. Fei Hu couldn't help but chuckle to himself.
At the dining table in the villa, Ye Xiaofei was full of excitement as she shared her day's achievements with her grandfather, who nodded and smiled in response. Sister Wu beside them was also laughing, but Yingzi sat quietly in a corner, looking gloomy and saying nothing.
Ye Cheng glanced at Yingzi and gently asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell or is there something on your mind? If so, just say it out loud; we can help you."
Yingzi shook her head and said, "The clues have run dry again. All the effort we've put in recently seems wasted. Sigh! Is our approach incorrect? Continuing like this, who knows if we'll find anything."
"Oh! I thought it was something serious. This matter really can't be rushed. Look at me; didn't I make some progress today? As long as we're prepared, opportunities will come our way. Let's enjoy our meal! After eating, take me out for a walk. I've been back in A City for so long and haven't seen what it's like at night," Ye Xiaofei comforted Yingzi.
Ye Cheng nodded and smiled, saying, "That's the right mindset. This matter really can't be rushed. If we make too much noise, we might push them into a corner, and then we'll be the ones caught off guard. Now that Xiaofei has made some progress here, that's very good. You all make arrangements; I need to go to Nan Jun personally to invite a few elders from the organization out. With their involvement, even those who followed Ye Wu will obediently return. That will be our best chance for a counterattack. As for my Young Man, if he can't be found, then it's just fate that we're not meant to be."
Ye Cheng's words lifted everyone's spirits again. After finishing their meal, Ye Xiaofei ran upstairs to change clothes and pulled Yingzi out the door. Ye Cheng hurriedly called out, "Don't drive yourself tonight; it's better to take a taxi."
"Got it, Grandpa," Ye Xiaofei replied as she dashed out the front door.
Watching Ye Xiaofei and Yingzi's retreating figures, Ye Cheng sighed, "Youth is truly wonderful."
On the riverside embankment, lights twinkled as boats passed by on the river, adorned with colorful lanterns. People leaned against or climbed over the railings along the embankment, appearing relaxed and carefree without the hurried pace of daytime.
"Wow! It's beautiful! No wonder it's an international metropolis," Ye Xiaofei exclaimed as she walked hand in hand with Yingzi.
Yingzi smiled and said, "Yes, A City is becoming more beautiful every day. This is just one spot; there are many more lovely places here. Even foreigners are amazed when they see it."
The two chatted and strolled leisurely along the scenic embankment path, feeling extremely content. If only there were no other conflicts in their lives; how wonderful that would be! But that's just how the world is.
"Hey! Yingzi, isn't there a café over there? Let's go sit down," Ye Xiaofei pointed to a café across the street bustling with people.
Yingzi glanced and smiled, "It's not a place opened by a Foreigner; it's too expensive. Let's find somewhere else."
"Come on! I'm treating, so don't overthink it," Ye Xiaofei said as she pulled Yingzi along.
Suddenly, a familiar figure flashed in front of Yingzi, and she immediately shouted, "Fei Hu!"
What a coincidence! A colleague at the company had some issues at home, so Fei Hu was filling in for a bit. He had just gotten off work and was passing by when he heard someone calling. Fei Hu quickly stopped his hurried steps and turned around to see Yingzi. He couldn't help but feel delighted, but when he noticed Ye Xiaofei beside her, his heart sank. This woman looked stunningly beautiful tonight in her new outfit.
"Hey! See a beautiful woman and you can't speak?" Yingzi teased as she greeted Fei Hu.
Fei Hu finally collected his flustered thoughts and smiled, "Where are you two beauties headed? Be careful out there."
Ye Xiaofei shot Fei Hu a glare and whispered, "No manners at all."
"Sister Xiaofei, it's after work hours; what manners are we talking about?" Yingzi nudged Ye Xiaofei's hand gently, reminding her softly.
Even Fei Hu could tell that Ye Xiaofei wasn't fond of him at all, so he quickly said, "You two enjoy yourselves. I just got off work and need to head home." With that, he turned to leave.
"Don't go! Let's go have coffee together," Yingzi called out.
Ye Xiaofei frowned slightly and whispered to Yingzi, "You want to invite this creep along?" Hearing this, Yingzi looked utterly astonished.
