“Xu Yanyan and the rest told Grandpa that I embezzled money to buy a car, but he refused to listen to my explanation.”

Xu Yaqing said indignantly.

“Why bother about them? You won’t be happy if you care so much about what others think.”

Ye Feng consoled Xu Yaqing.

“But I feel like they’re targeting me. I didn’t do anything.”

Xu Yaqing felt wronged just thinking about it. These people had been targeting her since she was young.

“They’re not targeting you. They’re just jealous of you. Those who don’t incur the jealousy of others are mediocre. It’s you who’s much more outstanding than them. They’re just afraid of you.”

“I didn’t expect you to say such nice things.”

Xu Yaqing looked at Ye Feng in surprise. She didn’t expect Ye Feng to say such sweet words.

“That’s the truth.”

This was indeed what Ye Feng was thinking.

Xu Yanyan and Xu Tianxian were just a bunch of rich kids who only knew how to have fun. Xu Yaqing, who managed a project well, was undoubtedly the most capable and outstanding person among the younger generation of the Xu family.
“Why do you seem to have something on your mind today?”

Xu Yaqing noticed that Ye Feng was frowning as if he was thinking about something.

“Nothing.”

Ye Feng was thinking about why the stall owner didn’t open business today. He knew that the owner wasn’t an ordinary person, but he hadn’t investigated in-depth. He had a bad feeling because the stall wasn’t open today.
However, he didn’t intend to tell Xu Yaqing about these things. Telling Xu Yaqing would only add to her troubles.

“Their complaining shouldn’t be the only thing that happened at the meeting today.”

Ye Feng collected his emotions and asked Xu Yaqing.

“Thave another problem today, but Xu Tian already helped me settle it. It’s not a big deal.”

“Xu Tian? What happened? That guy would help you?”

Ye Feng asked in surprise.

“Yeah, someone tampered with our project this time. They wanted to gain some money in the middle, so they asked me to go over and have a talk with them. Previously, I was still having a headache trying to find out who did it, but now that Xu Tian has found out, it’s Wang Ye from the southern city. I
just need to send the money over.”

Xu Yaqing told Ye Feng about what happened.
“Xu Tian? He would investigate and then give you the credit? Let me go with you tomorrow.”

Ye Feng felt that this matter was very strange, but he couldn’t pinpoint exactly what was wrong.

“Do you think there’s something wrong with this?”

“You should know very well what kind of person Xu Tian is. He would take credit for things that are yours. Don’t you think it’s strange that he gave his own credit to you?”
“It’s a little strange, but he’s a member of the Xu family after all. He shouldn’t harm the Xu family.”

“How about this, I’ll go with you to see Wang Ye tomorrow. We can take care of each other if anything happens.”

Ye Feng didn’t have any evidence either, so he couldn’t directly say that Xu Tian was guilty. It was better if he followed Xu Yaqing.

“Fine.”

At the same time, in the Xu Corporation building, inside Xu Tian’s office.

“Xu Tian, what are you doing? Why are you working for Xu Yaqing?”

Xu Yanyan asked in disbelief.

“Me helping Xu Yaqing? Hahaha, Yanyan, you think too simply.”

Xu Tian burst into laughter.

“What are you laughing at? Didn’t you just give the credit for solving the problem to Xu Yaqing?”

Xu Yanyan asked in confusion.

“Hmph, give her credit? To think you could think of that. Xu Yaqing will be kicked out of the Xu family in the future.”

Xu Tian said proudly.

“Tell me what’s going on.”

Xu Yanyan’s curiosity was piqued.

“Twas the one who contacted Wang Ye about the problem with the project this time. I’ve already told Wang Ye that as long as Xu Yaqing goes to look for him tomorrow, he will sleep with Xu Yaqing. At that time, I will let everyone in Jiang Zhong know that Xu Yaqing slept with someone in order to be
promoted. Tell me what will happen then.”

Xu Tian told Xu Yanyan his plan.
“After that, Xu Yaqing’s reputation will be ruined, and Grandpa won’t let such a person ruin his family’s reputation in the Xu family.”

Xu Yanyan said excitedly.

“That’s right. This time, I’m going to beat Xu Yaqing to death. This is the outcome of fighting with me!”

Xu Tian said fiercely.

“Lalso want to see how desperate Xu Yaqing will be.”

Xu Yanyan smiled.

The next day.

Ye Feng arrived at the Xu Corporation building. He couldn’t help but frown when he saw that the food stall was still closed.

However, Ye Feng didn’t think too much about it. He only planned to have Wang Haotian investigate thoroughly tonight.

Soon, Xu Yaqing came downstairs and got into the car.

‘The two of them drove all the way to the place where they had agreed to meet Wang Ye.

The navigation system gradually left the city and entered a sparsely populated suburb. There was a farmhouse in the depths of the suburb.
‘When Ye Feng saw that they had arranged to meet at such a place, he knew that they most likely had ill intentions. Fortunately, Ye Feng had informed Wang Haotian before coming here.
‘The two of them entered the farmhouse. Looking at the people standing guard inside, Xu Yaqing couldn’t help but feel a little scared.

“If you’re afraid, leave this to me.”

Ye Feng looked at Xu Yaqing and said softly.

“Let’s go in and take a look.”

Xu Yaqing calmed herself down.

Ye Feng didn’t say anything else. He didn’t think anyone could do anything to Xu Yaqing with him here.

When they entered the farmhouse, there was only one room inside. The door of the room was wide open, and Wang Ye was sitting at the main seat. Four subordinates were standing behind Wang Ye in the room.
“Look, our female lead is here tonight.”

‘Wang Ye looked at Xu Yaqing, who was walking over slowly, and spoke to his subordinate proudly. As for Ye Feng, Wang Ye had already ignored him.
“Brother Ye, I’m Xu Yaqing. I’m here on behalf of the Xu family to discuss something with you.”

Xu Yaqing went straight to the point the moment she entered the room.

“Miss Xu, don’t be in such a hurry to talk about this. Come and sit down.”

Xu Yaqing sat down and so did Ye Feng.

“Kid, who are you? Did Brother Ye let you sit? Hurry up and stand up.”

A subordinate behind Wang Ye shouted loudly.

“Wang Ye hasn’t said anything yet, why are you so anxious? Are you more important than Wang Ye?”

Ye Feng smiled as he spoke to the lackey.

“Impudent! Is this a place for you to speak?”

‘Wang Ye immediately reprimanded his subordinate.

“Miss Xu, this is?”

‘Wang Ye finally noticed that Xu Yaqing had brought someone over.

“My husband, Ye Feng.”

“So this is the most famous gigolo in Jiang Zhong. I’ve heard a lot about you. Nice to meet you.”

‘When Wang Ye heard that this was Ye Feng, he couldn’t help but take a few more glances.

“I don’t know if it’s my honor to have someone like you remember me.”

Ye Feng said playfully.

“You’d better not interrupt when Brother Ye is talking, or you’ll suffer.”

The person who spoke just now stood up and scolded Ye Feng again.

“Hey, don’t be so rude. This is my guest.”

‘Wang Ye casually lectured his subordinate.

“Brother Ye, let’s get down to business. I’m here this time because I hope to settle this matter with money. Please give me an answer.”

Xu Yaqing went straight to the point.

“Money? Do you think I, Wang Ye, lack money?”
