Chapter 28: Chapter 28: The Enigmatic Man
Chu ngyao, with a strange emotion, ca to Ye Fan and Zhang Lu’s side, deliberately keeping a certain distance from Ye Fan, and teased Zhang Lu, "Officer Zhang, what are you talking about? You look high-spirited?"
"President Chu, are you jealous? I rely spoke a few words to Ye Fan, and you’re already losing your patience. I’ve heard that President Chu is famous in the circle for being the ’Ice Woman.’ I didn’t expect you could also have spring fever. But isn’t your jealousy a bit too intense? Is any woman near Ye Fan automatically your rival?" Zhang Lu mocked, raising her nose.
"What are you talking about? I don’t understand." Chu ngyao suppressed the strange emotions in her heart and said matter-of-factly, "Ye Fan and I are just friends, not what you’re thinking."
"An explanation is just a cover-up. Doesn’t President Chu understand this concept? You don’t need to feel guilty. Whether you admit it or not doesn’t matter. I’m also a woman—do you think your small hidden thoughts can escape my eyes?" Zhang Lu’s lips curled up into a weird smile.
"Nonsense, I can’t be bothered with such an unreasonable woman as you." Chu ngyao’s secret seed to be poked through by soone, her expression becoming extrely uncomfortable.
"Who is being unreasonable knows it themselves. I won’t point it out." Zhang Lu gave a provocative glance at Chu ngyao and sneered, "Only you would cherish Ye Fan, treating him like a treasure. I certainly don’t care."
With that, Zhang Lu walked away, humming, with a victorious stance.
Chu ngyao’s mind whirled, thinking to herself, "Why do I feel upset seeing him with other won? Could it be that I really like him? Impossible, absolutely impossible. We’ve only known each other for such a short ti, how could it be possible?"
She couldn’t sort out the emotions in her heart, so she could only quash the thought deep down.
Ye Fan glanced at Zhang Lu, then at Chu ngyao, not knowing why, seeing Chu ngyao stand up for him made him extrely happy.
"ngyao, could it be that your heart has really stirred for love?" Zhao Shiyan suddenly appeared next to Chu ngyao.
She heard Zhang Lu’s words, and seeing Chu ngyao’s reaction, strange thoughts arose in her heart as well.
"I don’t understand what you’re talking about?" Chu ngyao said seriously.
"You’re just pretending." Zhao Shiyan teased incredulously.
Fifteen minutes later, a waitress approached Zhao Shiyan and reported, "Miss Zhao, everyone invited to the birthday party has arrived."
Zhao Shiyan’s birthday party was not just about the beauties Ye Fan saw. Within the circle, almost all the people with significant business stature were present. Even those not invited by Zhao Shiyan had found ways to get an invitation.
Such a party gathered the elite of the circle, and naturally, everyone was eager to attend, hoping to network and find business partners. Besides, Zhao Shiyan was one of the four great beauties in the circle, with Chu ngyao ranked first, so Zhao Shiyan’s birthday party attracted many people.
Ye Fan could enter the circle of ladies’ conversations thanks to being a friend of Chu ngyao; otherwise, he would only mingle with the n and wouldn’t appear in front of the ladies.
Under Zhao Shiyan’s greeting, the group of beauties left and entered the party hall.
Around, nearly a hundred successful n watched as Zhao Shiyan took center stage, appearing as gentlemanly as possible.
Complints and blessings poured out of the n’s mouths incessantly.
Chu ngyao’s presence further astonished and srized the n present.
The mix of n and won, familiar acquaintances exchanged warm greetings, and those eager to et new people struck up enthusiastic conversations.
"Who is that? There’s no such person in the circle? Why is he following behind Chu ngyao as part of the female entourage?" The n thought to themselves, their eyes uniformly turning to Ye Fan; so were envious, and others were jealous.
In the crowd, Zhao Xianghua and Wang Zijian both imdiately stood up, jogging towards Ye Fan.
"Mr. Ye is here too."
"Mr. Ye, how have you been?"
Although Zhao Xianghua and Wang Zijian lost the Chu Group stocks, they still owned small companies and barely qualified to attend such a party. Both were very wary of Ye Fan. With Zhang Daya now behind bars and Poisonous Spider’s miserable defeat, they had a clear idea that Ye Fan was behind it all.
Zhao Xianghua’s son was saved all thanks to Ye Fan.
The evidence of Wang Zijian’s cri with a young girl was also seized by Ye Fan from Zhang Daya.
So, the two of them held both respect and fear towards Ye Fan.
"Don’t get in my way, get lost." Ye Fan said bluntly, showing no kindness to the two, especially disdaining Wang Zijian. A person with a bit of money acting recklessly like that, he loathed even more.
"Yes, yes, yes." Zhao Xianghua and Wang Zijian retreated with bitter smiles, not daring to show any displeasure.
"Who is he?"
"Such audacity, making Wang Zijian and Zhao Xianghua so afraid."
"Could it be that he has a profound background?"
The n and won on the scene all focused on Ye Fan. Among the n, except for Wang Zijian and Zhao Xianghua, it was the first ti the others had seen Ye Fan. None knew Ye Fan’s identity. The won’s eyes flickered, convinced that Chu ngyao’s friend’s identity was no ordinary one.
For a mont, Ye Fan beca the center of attention, overshadowing Chu ngyao and Zhao Shiyan. The speculation about Ye Fan’s identity beca the question in everyone’s mind.
The people present at this event were all significant figures, wealthy and powerful, and they usually had so awareness of those with prominent backgrounds. However, within their mory and influence, there was no such character as Ye Fan.
Many of the beauties’ eyes glimred, pondering silently, "There are no high officials or business magnates with the surna Ye in Huaxia. Who is he really, and why so mysterious?"
Zhao Xianghua and Wang Zijian’s respect for Ye Fan stirred up waves of suspicion.
"I’m increasingly curious about this man." Zhao Shiyan wore a cunning smile.
Chu ngyao, however, wasn’t surprised. She knew why Zhao Xianghua and Wang Zijian were so afraid of Ye Fan.
Shen Yahut’s astonishnt was much stronger. As Chu ngyao’s secretary, she naturally knew about Zhao Xianghua and Wang Zijian’s recent antics. She could not imagine why, given the two’s caliber, they would treat Ye Fan with such respect, yet on the contrary, Ye Fan seed indifferent towards them.
"This guy is so mysterious; no wonder he can resist my allure." Shen Yahut thought to herself.
Zhang Lu’s thoughts were different from others. She suddenly and vaguely guessed that Zhao Xianghua and Wang Zijian handing over the Chu Group’s stocks might have an inseparable connection with Ye Fan.
"After this, I must find the two and get to the bottom of it. I don’t believe I can’t uncover his secrets." Zhang Lu stared at Ye Fan.
