The woman's words, though seemingly absurd, struck a chord with Ye Fei and instantly clarified everything for him. It was such a simple truth: he had the ability to make them happy, and they didn't mind sharing him.
That was all that mattered.
Why overthink it?
Only when everyone was together could they truly be happy.
As for Ye Xuan and Liu Yuner, they just didn't know him well enough yet. If he made them his won in truth, they'd likely end up like his mom and the others, encouraging him to be a bit of a playboy and never feeling jealous again.
Realizing this, Ye Fei felt extrely grateful to the woman. He wanted to thank her, but found that he didn't even have the strength to lift his head. His body swayed gently a few tis before he collapsed onto the table, losing all consciousness.
Seeing Ye Fei finally unconscious, the woman let out a long sigh of relief. Her earlier words had been deliberate, aid at making Ye Fei completely relax so that the full effect of the bottle of wine she had given him could take hold.
In truth, she despised n like Ye Fei who were unfaithful.
That's why she had accepted this mission. But she hadn't expected him to be so resilient.
A whole bottle of her specially brewed knockout wine hadn't been enough to take him down.
Not only did the reward for the mission fail to cover the cost of the ingredients for that bottle, but she also had to force herself to say those words. Had it not been for her sense of honor, she would have abandoned the task altogether.
Suppressing her disgust, the woman helped Ye Fei, who seed utterly intoxicated, to his feet. She draped his arm over her shoulder and half-carried, half-supported him out of the bar, under the envious gazes of everyone present (the won envied her, the n envied Ye Fei). She led him to a secluded alleyway, where she handed the unconscious Ye Fei over to two people who had been waiting there.
Watching the two drive away with Ye Fei, the woman muttered to herself, "This ti, I've really lost out. Not only did I fail to profit, but I also let that detestable man take advantage of !"
But when she recalled the pained and tender expression on Ye Fei's face as he spoke of his regrets towards his won, she found him less detestable. Your journey continues at My Virtual Library Empire
Allowing him to touch her body, which was so sensually concealed yet pure beneath, didn't seem quite as unbearable.
When Ye Fei regained consciousness again, he found himself in a place that looked very much like a prison cell. He deduced this from the thick, arm-sized steel bars surrounding the space. He then rembered what had happened before he passed out. It seed that woman had been sent by so hostile force specifically to target him. He had been in a very confused state of mind and had fallen right into the trap.
However, Ye Fei didn't harbor any resentnt towards the woman. In fact, he felt sowhat grateful to her. Her words had helped him untie the knots in his heart. Although he was now locked in an unknown cell, his mood was much lighter than when he had been on the streets of Near-sea City.
"You're finally awake!" Just as Ye Fei was happy to have figured things out, a very pleasant voice ca from the darkness beside him, letting him know he wasn't alone in this cell-like place.
It wasn't that Ye Fei's senses had diminished; he had just woken up from a coma and his mind was still a bit foggy.
Besides, he was so focused on being happy about his newfound clarity that he hadn't paid attention to his surroundings. Hearing the voice, he strained his eyes to look over and was stunned.
In the dimly lit corner, there was a doorway-like opening. Standing at that doorway was a woman, an incredibly beautiful woman.
She was not only stunningly beautiful but also gave Ye Fei a sense of familiarity. This feeling of familiarity made Ye Fei pause, because despite his excellent mory, he couldn't recall where he had seen her before. Yet, she felt undeniably familiar.
The woman seed to share this feeling. Her gaze towards Ye Fei was filled with surprise and confusion, clearly puzzled as to why she felt familiar with this young man.
After a long while, Ye Fei finally asked, "Who are you? Where is this place?"
"My na is Shui Ying. This is a prison cell!" The woman didn't hide anything and answered Ye Fei's question directly. She then asked, "Why were you brought here?"
Ye Fei wasn't surprised, as he had already guessed it was a prison cell. He just didn't understand why the people who captured him would put him in the sa cell with such a beautiful woman. So he asked, "And why are you here?"
"I've been in this cell for eighteen years," Shui Ying sighed. "But I don't understand why they brought in another person. Who are you, really?"
"My na is Ye Fei," Ye Fei casually replied, but inside, he beca more vigilant. He hadn't had ti to think about it before, but now he realized that the people who captured him were probably no ordinary force. He had just had a disagreent with Liu Yuner, and that woman had approached him imdiately afterward.
This ant they knew his whereabouts very well. Although the Lingyun Group's influence in Near-sea City wasn't as strong as in Wang Hai City, they still controlled most of it. Yet, this group seed to move freely in Near-sea City, making them a formidable rival.
Of course, there was another possibility: they had just randomly grabbed soone, and he happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong ti. He knew this was unlikely, but he couldn't rule it out entirely.
"What? You have the surna Ye? Where are you from?"
Hearing Ye Fei's na, Shui Ying seed very excited. Her face, which hadn't shown much emotion when she ntioned her eighteen years in captivity, now flushed with an excited expression.
"I was captured in Near-sea City," Ye Fei said, without revealing that he was from Wang Hai City. He didn't fully trust this woman nad Shui Ying.
Who knew if she was planted here by the captors to pretend to be a fellow prisoner? She didn't seem like it, but there were always people in the world with incredible acting skills.
Although Ye Fei only ntioned that he was captured in Near-sea City, Shui Ying apparently assud he was from there. Her face showed a mix of disappointnt and relief, which puzzled Ye Fei.
"Do you know why they brought you here and locked you in this cell?"
After realizing Ye Fei wasn't from Wang Hai City, Shui Ying's expression returned to its indifferent state. She asked, genuinely curious why they had put this young man in the sa cell as her.
