The night was getting a bit late. Ye Wu, dressed in a robe, sat in his living room with his eyes tightly closed. Abiao and Little Four unexpectedly occupied the sofa beside him. The living room was very quiet, only the sound of the clock on the wall swinging could be heard.
"Abiao, tomorrow gather some of the brothers from Lin Zhi Road Vegetable Market. Aren't there some who are quite capable? Once we receive the specific address for the Annual Meeting tomorrow, take them up there and smash the drinks. Remember, be quick and leave no traces behind. After it's done, disperse quickly," Ye Wu suddenly broke the silence and instructed the chubby Abiao beside him.
Little Four blinked a couple of times and quietly asked, "Brother Tiger, what about me? Do I have any tasks?"
Ye Wu thought for a moment and said, "Do you think I would keep you around for nothing? The day after tomorrow, bring a few skilled brothers to stay by my side and act as needed. Remember, absolutely no weapons."
Little Four nodded and softly asked, "If we can't bring weapons, can we bring our belongings?"
"Handle it yourself," Ye Wu replied coldly. He was feeling a bit off today; he had gone to find Ye Wei in the morning to gauge his attitude but was unexpectedly turned away at the door under the pretense that there were guests at home. Just thinking about it made him angry.
In fact, there really was a guest at Ye Wei's house—none other than Wang Qian. She knew that Ye Wei's wife had gone back to her hometown, so she rushed over early in the morning. She wasn't there to keep Ye Wei company; instead, she was stirring up trouble.
"A company president who shows up three days to fish and two days to sunbathe—only comes when she feels like it. You tell me how many times she's been to the company these days? She even got one of the security guards a month off without my knowledge! What do you need me for as Vice President? Just fire me already," Wang Qian complained, unable to even receive the tea that Ye Wei personally poured for her.
"Hahaha! I thought you missed me; turns out it's just about this nonsense. Is it worth it? If she doesn't come to work, aren't we more relaxed? Seriously! As for that security guard, let him take as many days off as he wants! With such a big company, we're not short one guard. Hey! I feel like you might have a thing for that guard; you two didn’t end up in bed together when you went to Hong Kong, did you?" Ye Wei said with a mischievous smile on his face.
Wang Qian stood up angrily and softly cursed, "Is that all you've got? Full of thoughts about men and women! You really think I would be interested in a lousy security guard? You really underestimate me!"
Ye Wei stood up and patted Wang Qian on the shoulder, saying, "Baby, I was just joking with you. This Ye Xiaofei will be removed from the company sooner or later; she's been busy handling a Major Incident for the old man lately. I can't interfere with her; otherwise, the old man won't let me off easy."
"What Major Incident? Why are you being so mysterious?" Wang Qian asked softly as she sat back down.
Ye Wei leaned his chubby face closer to Wang Qian's and lowered his voice, saying, "The day after tomorrow is our Dragon Tiger Gang's anniversary meeting. She's been busy with this lately, so I can't say anything to her. Got it?"
"Oh! Where is it being held? Is it going to be lively?" Wang Qian's face showed an expression of surprise.
Ye Wei shook his head, his expression turning serious as he said, "Isn't that too many questions? This is not something you should be asking."
Wang Qian was taken aback for a moment, a subtle smile appearing on his face.
Fei Hu had dinner at Ye Cheng's house, and everyone discussed the complete plan for the day after tomorrow. However, Fei Hu had formulated this plan based on what he learned from military texts, and Ye Cheng praised him for it.
When Ye Xiaofei handed him the key to his room, Fei Hu suddenly remembered that the room was only half tidied up. Checking the time, it wasn't too late; if he hurried back, he could finish it since he might not have time tomorrow.
After saying goodbye to everyone, just as Fei Hu was about to leave, Yingzi handed him a mask and said, "Put this on and go out through the backyard. It's best not to use the front door. We won't drive you; just catch a taxi at the roadside. I'll come pick you up tomorrow morning."
Climbing over a wall wasn't too difficult for Fei Hu, but he couldn't help but wonder if someone was watching the front gate of Ye Cheng's house. Last time they mentioned that Ye Cheng's study had been bugged, and they had only just discovered it a couple of days ago. That seemed a bit frightening!
For wealthy people, everything is convenient. Remembering those days of squeezing onto public buses, Fei Hu now felt that sitting in a taxi was a very luxurious experience. After more than half an hour of travel, he arrived quickly. Thinking about how messy his room was made him uneasy; if it weren't for Ye Xiaofei personally inviting him today, he really wouldn't want to go out.
As Fei Hu took out his key and was about to unlock the door, the door next door opened, and two girls dressed very flamboyantly walked out. One of them nodded at Fei Hu and smiled, "Did Zeng Xin renovate the place?"
Fei Hu replied vaguely, "Just tidied it up a bit." After watching the two girls leave, he thought to himself, am I suffering from Divine Essence disease? Why am I renovating someone else's house?
As the key turned in the lock with a click, the door swung open. Fei Hu's first impression was that he had walked into someone else's room. Goodness! The floor was covered with thick carpet, and the walls were adorned with brand new wallpaper. The once empty bed was now thickly padded with new bedding and some daily necessities added; everything was complete and nothing was lacking.
While Fei Hu stood at the doorway in a daze, his phone rang. Without even looking at it, he answered excitedly, "Hello! What’s up?" His voice couldn't hide his excitement; it felt like winning the lottery.
"How is it? Are you satisfied with your room? Try the bed; is it warm enough? If it's not enough, I can have someone bring you more blankets tomorrow," Ye Xiaofei's pleasant voice came through from the other end.
Fei Hu suddenly realized that Ye Xiaofei had asked for his key today because she had already made preparations. He felt quite foolish for not having thought of this earlier; it truly surprised him.
"Why aren't you saying anything? Are you dissatisfied?" Ye Xiaofei pressed on over the phone.
Fei Hu finally came to his senses and hurriedly said, "It's so beautiful, it's beautiful enough to leave one a bit dazed."
When Ye Xiaofei heard this, she was very pleased and smiled, saying, "As long as you're satisfied. Tonight you can take a beauty home; otherwise, like this morning, which woman would be willing to step inside?" Ye Xiaofei joked with Fei Hu for a moment before hanging up the phone.
Fei Hu closed the door and tossed his phone onto the table. He dashed into the bedroom and flopped onto the soft, fluffy bed. The feeling was simply amazing. After being in A City for so long, it was the first time he felt at home. Although he had been staying at Sun Li's place these days, which was undeniably comfortable, as a man, Fei Hu also cared about his pride. He always felt like he was living off someone else, speaking in front of Sun Li without any confidence.
Fei Hu rolled around on the bed a couple of times and shouted loudly, "I have a place to live now!"
Suddenly, the phone on the table rang. Fei Hu heard it and angrily cursed, "I'm having such a good time; why are you calling? I'm not answering." He really didn't move. The phone rang for a while before falling silent.
With his hands behind his head, Fei Hu stared at the ceiling, wondering why Ye Xiaofei was suddenly being so nice to him. Was it just to get his help? It didn't seem like it; Ye Xiaofei's kindness felt genuine, without any pretense. Although he hadn't interacted much with her, Fei Hu had a bit of understanding about this woman. Despite her beauty and elegance that exuded nobility, she was quite straightforward and didn't have any ulterior motives.
Just as Fei Hu was feeling pleased with himself, the phone on the table rang again, continuously ringing as if it would keep calling until dawn if he didn't answer. Frustrated, Fei Hu jumped out of bed and ran to the living room. He grabbed the phone and saw that it was Fat Girl calling. He hadn't seen her for a few days. Fei Hu quickly pressed the answer button and smiled, saying, "It's Fat Girl! How have you been? I'll come over tomorrow..."
"Dead Long Hair! How dare you not answer my call? Let me tell you, your rental period has already passed by two days. I've rented your place to someone else. Come over and move your stuff; don't occupy my space," came the landlady's shout from the other end of the line.
Fei Hu moved the phone slightly away from his ear and replied without courtesy, "Do whatever you want; I'm not renting anymore."
"What? You're not renting anymore? Well, I couldn't be happier! Just listen carefully; don't go back on your word. A man's word is his bond; once it's said, it's like spilled water. Don't come crawling back later," that stubborn landlady really underestimated him.
Angry, Fei Hu hung up the phone abruptly. He knew that arguing with such a woman wasn't worth it. His good mood was instantly ruined, leaving him unsure if he would still dream about Ye Xiaofei tonight while sleeping.
