Chapter 1234: Chapter 1234: The Undercurrents Stirring 2

“Probably only those close to Ye Fei would know about this,” Zhou Shichang said. He wasn’t unwilling to monitor Ye Fei’s movents; it was just that Ye Fei was surrounded by too many skilled individuals.

No spy would dare to show up in places Ye Fei frequented.

To be honest, Li Minghua was quite dissatisfied with the current situation. Her original plan was to use the Qi family to spread Ye Fei’s scandals, making her daughter see his true nature.

Then, an enraged Ye Fei would wipe out the Qi family, who had been harboring impure intentions towards her daughter. It would have been a perfect two-for-one deal.

However, now that the Qi family had made their move—and it was a significant one—Ye Fei still hadn’t reacted.

This was not only completely unexpected but also allowed the Qi family to gain an advantage and profit from the situation.

“Dad, how about we loosen our grip on the military and let the Qi family take down Liu Junyi as well?” Li Minghua suggested, unwilling to give up. She couldn’t believe Ye Fei would still hold back.

But Zhou Shichang shook his head. “We can’t do that. Now that Liu Fengyi has just been suspended, the political scene in Wanghai is bound to shake up.

Most of these officials aren’t good apples. They can pretend to be decent in normal tis, but with the upcoming reshuffle, everyone will be fighting for their interests.

Who will care about the well-being of the people? With the military district in control, things are still manageable.

But if even the military district falls into chaos, I’m afraid even I won’t be able to handle it.”

Of course, Li Minghua knew that Zhou Shichang, aside from his deep-seated grudges that sotis led him to do so morally ambiguous things, was truly a good official who cared about the country and its people. But she still pressed on, “Liu Junyi is just the commander of the special forces. Removing her shouldn’t have much impact on the military district, right?”

“If it were a few months ago, it wouldn’t have mattered. But now she’s a major general, with a rank equal to the military district commander and even more actual power.

If it were soone else, they definitely wouldn’t be as restrained as she is.

They would surely try to seize control in the local military district. Unless we send our own people there,” Zhou Shichang sighed softly. “But I don’t want to do that. After all, I’ve seen them grow up.”

Li Minghua also sighed softly. She wasn’t heartless and understood Zhou Shichang’s conflicted feelings—wanting revenge but not wanting to harm Liu Yiru and the others too much. So she didn’t say anything more.

Co to think of it, her goal had pretty much been achieved. Ye Fei’s relationship with Liu Yiru was already common knowledge. She believed her daughter would surely give up on Ye Fei because of this.

As for the Qi family, they wouldn’t be arrogant for long.

Even if Ye Fei didn’t make a move, the won around him weren’t pushovers.

A few of them could easily uproot the Qi family.

It had to be said that Li Minghua was extrely ticulous in her thinking and exceptionally intelligent, truly deserving of the title of “female Zhuge Liang.”

However, she had never truly loved a man in her life and couldn’t empathize with Liu Yiru and the others. So, she was bound to miscalculate again this ti.

…

Wanghai, Ye Fei’s Manor.

In the first-floor main hall of the central building, nearly a hundred won sat around a long conference table.

Won who had relationships with Ye Fei or had mutual feelings but hadn’t yet developed a relationship were almost all present. Since there were so many people, they simply used this hall as a eting room.

Any one of these hundred won could easily captivate a crowd and be adored by thousands, but here, they seed quite ordinary.

Only the dozen or so won seated at the head of the table could be considered true beauties, especially the one sitting at the very center.

Her beauty was so stunning that even the other won present couldn’t help but be srized.

These won, who considered Ye Fei the pillar of their lives, initially gathered out of deep concern for his safety, wanting to know any changes as soon as possible.

Later, after Liu Yiru and Ye Yunqi sensed that he was not in any life-threatening danger, they all cald down. Now, they were discussing strategies for dealing with the current situation.

“We’ve figured it out. The main force behind this move against Wanghai is the Qi family. They were also the ones who exposed that scandal before. How dare they use such a despicable tactic as a romantic relationship to attack Sister Fengyi, and it’s all baseless! It’s like a cornered dog jumping over a wall,” Song Xuan began, indignantly.

She was from the Song family in the capital, which, though fallen from grace, still had good intelligence.

Compared to Song Xuan’s anger, Liu Fengyi, the person directly involved, took it quite lightly. She smiled charmingly and said, “This is great. Now I’m free from official duties. When Xiaoman cos back, I can just be his little woman by his side.” Since everyone present was like family, there was no need to hide her relationship with her nephew.

“I envy you, Sister Fengyi. I also want to step down, but Uncle Zhou won’t let .” Liu Junyi followed, “It looks like I’ll have to stay in the military camp obediently.”

“That’s not bad either. Those people are also eyeing our company. Although they dare not attack the Qiu Feng Group for now, having a general as a deterrent is always safer,” Ye Ningshuang said.

Originally, the Qiu Feng Group was managed by Li Xue’er, and she should have been the one to speak. However, out of respect for Auntie Ye Ningshuang, she let her take the lead.

The last to speak was Ye Xuan. She sighed softly, “The worst off is the Lingyun Association. They’ve made such a huge contribution to stabilizing the southeast, but now they’re inexplicably labeled as a terrorist organization. If they don’t want to be accused of rebellion, they have no choice but to retreat overseas for the ti being.”

Liu Fengyi represented the political field, Liu Junyi the military, Ye Ningshuang the business world, and Ye Xuan the underworld.

The four won, each speaking a sentence, had already analyzed the current situation and made general decisions.

After the four won finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to Liu Yiru, who was sitting at the head of the table, waiting for her to make the final decision.

With Ye Fei absent, they needed to choose soone to take charge, and that person could only be Liu Yiru.

Officially, she was Ye Fei’s biological mother and thus everyone’s mother-in-law. She was Ye Fei’s beloved, the undisputed queen of the harem.

Unlike the scheming and jealous harems of ancient emperors, this harem was harmonious because the won loved Ye Fei as a person, not for his wealth or status.
