Chapter 74: Chapter 74: Huaxia’s Number One

More than half an hour later, Li Yifei got up to use the restroom, which was located at the end of the hallway outside. After he finished and was walking back, he saw Xu Yingying standing with a man at the entrance of the lobby she had entered.

Although Xu Yingying had a smile on her face, it was clearly forced, and she kept glancing in Li Yifei’s direction. When she saw Li Yifei, she imdiately gave him a look.

Li Yifei got the hint and quickly strode over, saying, "President Xu, there was an important call just now that requires your attention."

Xu Yingying imdiately apologized to the man with a smile and then walked towards Li Yifei, taking the phone he offered and began to pretend to talk.

Li Yifei then turned to the man. The man appeared to be in his thirties, dressed in a crisp suit worth no less than a hundred thousand. Although his looks were not particularly handso, the suit, combined with the expensive watch on his wrist, was enough to indicate that it wasn’t easy to deal with this guy.

The guy didn’t even glance at Li Yifei but stared at Xu Yingying with overt desire in his eyes. It was clear he harbored ill intentions towards Xu Yingying. Moreover, the fact that he didn’t attempt to hide his lascivious gaze proved his domineering status — he did not care for Xu Yingying’s position as a company president.

Although Xu Yingying held absolute authority within the company, she was, after all, just a corporate president. In Mile City, there were at least several dozen such companies, and frankly, Xu Yingying was just an employee; the company wasn’t hers. Her social standing and status were far from that of bosses and similar figures.

Li Yifei had seen such incidents quite often before, especially when he was protecting special personnel. Even the major stars by their side were nurous. In their eyes, no matter how capable a woman was, she was rely a toy for their pleasure. Now this guy obviously shared similar thoughts.

Before, when Li Yifei encountered such situations, he regarded them as none of his business, but things were different now. Since Xu Yingying had sought his protection, he could no longer ignore it. Moreover, he was now to stand in opposition to these powerful figures, which was no small challenge, especially since he was now a nobody.

Then Xu Yingying ca back and stood next to Li Yifei and suddenly took his arm, saying, "Yifei, let’s go in together."

Li Yifei was taken aback as Xu Yingying gently twisted his arm. He imdiately realized she must have been quite bothered by the man and possibly couldn’t get rid of him. That’s why she was using him as a shield.

Now he certainly couldn’t back down. With a faint smile, he said, "Isn’t it inappropriate for us to reveal our relationship so soon? It might make you look bad."

As they moved forward, Xu Yingying spoke with conviction, "No problem, we have to face it sooner or later. Besides, I’m just a nobody here, nobody pays attention to ."

Li Yifei gave a wry smile, "Alright then, let’s face it together."

As they spoke, they reached the man. The man by now had furrowed his brow and said to Xu Yingying, "President Xu, who is this...?"

With an apologetic smile, Xu Yingying said, "I’m sorry, Young Master Sunx, thank you for your kindness, but I can’t hide it anymore. This is my boyfriend, Li Yifei."

Young Master Sunx, nad Sunx Dongran, was the son of the chairman of Tianli Group in Mile City, Sunx Nenghui, with a family fortune of over a billion. Although he was not the sole legal heir, as the son of such a major consortium, he was naturally quite powerful. Huayang Company was nothing in his eyes, let alone Xu Yingying who was just a general manager there.

Originally, Sunx Dongran thought that pursuing Xu Yingying equated to her climbing up the social ladder — a sure-fire win. Unexpectedly, Li Yifei showed up, and his face imdiately darkened. After giving Li Yifei a look, he said, "President Xu, you’re not joking, right? Just grabbing soone to pretend to be your boyfriend?"

With an apologetic shake of her head, Xu Yingying said, "Sorry, but he really is my boyfriend," hugging Li Yifei’s arm even more intimately.

Sunx Dongran’s face turned even uglier. He snorted and said, "President Xu, your taste is really poor. How can you choose such a man? Is he suitable for you?"

"I... "

Before Xu Yingying could speak, Li Yifei patted the back of her hand and said, "Young Master Sunx, I know I might not seem good enough for Yingying in your eyes, but love isn’t sothing that can be asured by money. Moreover, Yingying isn’t soone who would choose a partner based on wealth, and I’m absolutely confident about that."

Sunx Dongran looked at Li Yifei and then let out a sneer before turning and walking into the hall. The malevolence in his gaze before he left was enough to show his hatred for Li Yifei.

"I really had no other choice," Xu Yingying sighed, appearing sowhat helpless.

At the company, in everyday situations, Li Yifei always saw Xu Yingying brimming with confidence. It was the first ti he saw her so helpless and in trouble, and he comforted her by saying, "Isn’t everything okay now?"

"Well, it’s okay for now, but I’m afraid he’ll co back to trouble you."
