Chapter 15: Chapter 15 I am his woman, please do not harass my man!
But when Xuan Yufei broke off their engagement in such a situation, it was nothing short of kicking him while he was down. Although it wasn't Xuan Yufei who orchestrated it, the fact that she didn't stand up for Ye Fan hurt him deeply.
Yet, whenever he thought of that girl, Ye Fan still felt a twinge of regret and melancholy in his heart.
"Let's go! Let's see!" Su Yixue took Ye Fan by the arm, straightened her appearance a bit, and deliberately messed up her clothes to look somewhat disheveled, before walking out the door with Ye Fan.
At the gate of the villa, Xuan Yufei stood alone, looking desolate. Seeing Ye Fan and Su Yixue walking out so intimately, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart.
Had Ye Fan already gotten together with Su Yixue after just one day?
"Xuan Yufei, what are you doing here? Didn't you just break off your engagement with Ye Fan yesterday? Do you want to ridicule my man again?" Su Yixue did not give Xuan Yufei a friendly look.
The face of the Ye Family was something everyone was supposed to uphold together.
Yet the Xuan Family had publicly ground the Ye Family's face into the dirt in front of so many people yesterday. That wasn't enough, they wanted to humiliate Ye Fan again today?
Xuan Yufei knew that her actions yesterday had hurt many people. So she didn't retort Su Yixue's words, but instead turned her head and looked at Ye Fan tenderly, "Brother Fan! I came to say I'm sorry. Yesterday... it wasn't what I wanted. It was my uncle's decision, I..."
Towards the end of her speech, Xuan Yufei felt like she was about to cry.
Deep down, Xuan Yufei truly loved Ye Fan. But her character was too soft, and she lacked the guts of people like Yu Linglong to stand up when her uncle announced the news.
But it was just one night, and everything had already changed beyond recall.
"Princess Yu, you're here? I've been looking for you all morning. Didn't we agree to watch a movie together today?" Before Xuan Yufei could finish talking, a Mercedes suddenly stopped by. Li Yunyang from the Cloud City Li Family got out of the car, spoke gently to Xuan Yufei, and handed her a bouquet of roses.
"Ah... this..." Xuan Yufei felt so awkward that she almost dug a three-bedroom flat out of the ground with her toes. She had come to apologize, so what was Li Yunyang doing here at this time?
And who was the gossip who had told Li Yunyang about her schedule?
It was definitely her uncle!
Sigh!
"Xuan Yufei, is this your apology? Are you here to apologize, or to show off your love?" Seeing Ye Fan looking disheartened, Su Yixue couldn't bear it and stepped forward to scold Xuan Yufei, "Xuan Yufei, let me tell you, I am already Ye Fan's woman... so please, don't bother my husband again in the future!"
As she spoke, Su Yixue lifted Ye Fan's chin and tenderly planted a kiss on his lips.
This was a declaration as well as a show of defiance.
Click!
Xuan Yufei felt as if she could actually hear the sound of her heart breaking at that moment.
Had they really gotten together so quickly?
Wasn't Ye Fan supposed to be a simpleton? How could he do something like this?
Ye Fan had also held some regrets about Xuan Yufei, so seeing her take the initiative to come and apologize made him feel somewhat consoled. However, seeing Li Yunyang appear irritated him straight away.
What's more, Ye Fan had already learned from the mouths of Zhao Tianlong and Zhao Dechang that the Cloud City Li Family was a vassal family of the Liu Family in Provincial City and had also participated in the action to ostracize the Ye Family.
They were the life-and-death enemies of the Ye Family.
Xuan Yufei actually broke up with me, but to turn around and throw herself into the arms of the Ye Family's enemy?
This was something that Ye Fan couldn't accept!
"Heh heh! Princess Yu, if you won't be my wife, I've got another wife now... and she's prettier than you, plus I have six others..." Ye Fan counted seriously on his fingers, tallying carefully.
Ye Fan did it on purpose, to show that if Xuan Yufei wouldn't be with him, there were seven other beautiful sisters-in-law who would!
Pfft!
Xuan Yufei felt a surge of blood in her chest, sweetness in her throat, and she barely held back from vomiting, staggering a bit. Her face turned pale as she looked at Ye Fan, trying to keep a smile and said, "Brother Fan! As long as you're happy... I wish you well..."
With that, Xuan Yufei held back the tears in her eyes from falling, and quickly walked towards her car.
Li Yunyang wanted to step forward to support Xuan Yufei but was angrily pushed away by her, "Scram!"
Xuan Yufei didn't like Li Yunyang at all, but after knowing that the Ye Family had fallen, her uncle insisted, for the sake of the Xuan Family's development, that she date Li Yunyang.
Su Yixue was dealing with matters at the company today, and she was worried about how to arrange things for Ye Fan.
Given Ye Fan's current situation, leaving him alone at home worried Su Yixue, but taking Ye Fan with her to the company was also inconvenient, especially since she needed to go out for negotiations.
However, just as Su Yixue was fretting, Wang Fugui drove over.
"Sister-in-law, go to work with peace of mind, I'll take good care of Big Brother!" Wang Fugui said confidently, easing Su Yixue's worries completely.
The relationship between Wang Fugui and Ye Fan was like that of two brothers who grew up in the same pair of pants. At any time, Wang Fugui would protect Ye Fan unconditionally.
Moreover, Wang Fugui's power was growing continuously, so Ye Fan should be quite safe with him.
"Okay! Then I'll leave him in your care, I'll come back as soon as I can in the afternoon!" Su Yixue instructed Wang Fugui and then drove off.
Wang Fugui took Ye Fan into his car and waited for Su Yixue to leave before he spoke up, "Big Brother! Everyone's gone now, can you stop pretending? I know you're feigning ignorance on purpose. Between brothers, there's no need for pretense, right?"
After returning home the day before, the more Wang Fugui thought about it, the more something felt off.
Ye Fan's behavior at the banquet and that peculiar sensation made Wang Fugui feel that Ye Fan was different than before. If Ye Fan had truly become foolish before, he must have awakened by now.
Especially in the middle of the night, when Wang Fugui received news that the Zhao Family had been wiped out overnight.
The first person Wang Fugui thought of was Ye Fan taking action, but when he called Elder Ye, he found out that Ye Fan was staying in Su Yixue's villa and wouldn't have had the chance to do anything.
Unable to figure it out, Wang Fugui went to see Ye Fan early in the morning, hoping to probe him.
"Old Wang, what do you want to package? I have a plastic bag here, do you need it?" Ye Fan pulled out a plastic bag and handed it to Wang Fugui, which left Wang Fugui not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Was his big brother really still foolish?
"Big Brother! I don't know if you're really foolish or pretending, but I'll assume you've come to your senses!" While driving, Wang Fugui said to Ye Fan, "Since we're free today, I'll take you out and about to some places we used to go. Maybe you'll be able to remember something!"
Wang Fugui's words made Ye Fan feel a tightness in his heart.
Where did he often go before becoming foolish?
Could it be the Heaven on Earth clubs?
