Yuan Shanshan and Xu Mingzhe’s conversation, Ye Xunhuan was destined not to hear it, otherwise, a storm would undoubtedly arise within Ye Xunhuan’s heart!
Just who exactly is this fiancée of Xu Mingzhe, to know so much about these things?
Yet, Ye Xunhuan only met Yuan Shanshan once and didn’t think much of it after, he and Qiu Ruoxi had their meal at the restaurant and were ready to settle the bill and leave.
But when paying, the waiter told Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi that someone had already settled their bill.
No need to guess, Ye Xunhuan knew with great certainty that this was part of Xu Mingzhe’s handiwork, and regarding this, Ye Xunhuan didn’t say much and left the restaurant with Qiu Ruoxi.
After leaving the restaurant, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi returned to the villa at Ting Xiang Shui Xie.
Yet neither knew that as they left, Xu Mingzhe and Yuan Shanshan stood at the window of a private box, quietly gazing downstairs, seeing Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi get further away!
"Shanshan, how come I feel Ye Xunhuan doesn’t seem like someone doomed to die soon!" Xu Mingzhe said thoughtfully.
"Why would you say that?"
"If like you said, so many people want him dead, then why has he lived up to now and even managed to kill a big figure?"
Xu Mingzhe certainly isn’t a brainless guy; instead, he is someone who plans carefully with foresight, otherwise, how could he still be alive after Yan Qingdi died?
"I’m puzzled too!" Yuan Shanshan said with disbelief: "Logically speaking, everyone should be joining forces to kill him."
"But all along, almost no one has united, everyone acts like scattered sand, fighting their own battles!"
"Nonetheless, it doesn’t matter, their fight has nothing to do with us, we can just sit here and wait for the storm to rise!" Yuan Shanshan said indifferently.
Xu Mingzhe remained silent, falling into deep thought, while uncertain of his true intentions.
......
The next day, after having breakfast at the villa, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi went together to the Storm Group.
Since their relationship is already exposed, there is no need to hide, therefore walking together is no issue.
Upon entering the company, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi separated, after all, Qiu Ruoxi is the President, while Ye Xunhuan, although the President’s husband, is merely a Vice President of a department.
After returning to his office, Ye Xunhuan sat for a while and then called Tang Wen to come over.
The matter Ye Nanfeng talked to Ye Xunhuan about yesterday needed confirmation from Tang Wen, or else Ye Xunhuan wouldn’t rest easy.
Even though Ye Xunhuan knows Tang Wen isn’t simple, he needs to figure out whether Tang Wen is on the side of the big boss.
After receiving Ye Xunhuan’s call, Tang Wen quickly came in from outside.
Upon entering, Tang Wen politely addressed Ye Xunhuan: "President Ye, when did you return?"
"Just got back!" Ye Xunhuan responded calmly: "Have a seat!"
Tang Wen didn’t stand on ceremony, directly sitting aside: "President Ye, is there something you need from me?"
"It’s nothing major, I just want to inquire about someone from you."
Tang Wen’s face slowly showed a curious expression, looking puzzled at Ye Xunhuan: "Who does President Ye want to inquire about?"
"The big boss!" Ye Xunhuan fixed his gaze on Tang Wen, speaking word by word.
Tang Wen’s face slightly changed upon hearing ’big boss,’ but quickly returned to normal.
Nevertheless, the subtle change in Tang Wen’s face was clearly seen by Ye Xunhuan.
"President Ye, which big boss are you referring to?" Tang Wen pretended to ask in confusion.
Ye Xunhuan took out a cigarette, lit it, took a light puff, then said nonchalantly: "Tang Wen, your expression has already betrayed you, you know whom I’m referring to!"
"President Ye..."
"You’re one of his people!" Ye Xunhuan interrupted Tang Wen: "Although I don’t know your purpose, during your time at Storm Group, you haven’t done anything adverse, and have, on the contrary, contributed quite a bit to the company."
"Therefore, I won’t make things difficult for you, I just want to confirm this now!"
Tang Wen remained silent, unsure of how to respond.
After a moment’s pause, Tang Wen slowly said: "President Ye, it seems you were already ninety percent sure before asking me!"
Ye Xunhuan nodded: "That’s right!"
"What do you want to know?"
"If I ask, will you tell me?"
"Depends on what it is."
"I know you won’t tell me who the big boss is, so let me ask a simple question then?"
"Go ahead!"
"Do you have genuine feelings for Wei Zixu, or is it pretentious, playing around, or are you looking to gain something through Wei Zixu?"
Ye Xunhuan didn’t ask anything about the big boss because he knew clearly, even if he did, it would be of no use, Tang Wen wouldn’t disclose any information.
"It’s genuine!" Tang Wen said earnestly, looking straight at Ye Xunhuan.
"That’s good!" Ye Xunhuan nodded with satisfaction: "I consider Wei Zixu a friend. If it’s pretentious, you’d better leave, but if it’s genuine, then I will bless you!"
"But what you say must be the truth, otherwise I won’t keep you, and it’s best for you not to harbor any hostility against me, or else I will not tolerate you!"
As he spoke, an intense and chilling intent shot from Ye Xunhuan, directly targeting Tang Wen, instantly throwing Tang Wen into an icy abyss, feeling a cold chill throughout!
"Actually, the big boss has never intended to harm you, nor those around you, you don’t need to worry about that." Tang Wen took a deep breath, saying to Ye Xunhuan: "Of course, don’t provoke him either, or he might change his mind, causing consequences you can’t bear!"
"Is this a threat?"
"It’s a reminder, a friendly reminder!" Tang Wen explained: "President Ye, the big boss is actually quite nice. If it were someone else, they would’ve taken action against you long ago!"
"He hasn’t, not from the beginning until now, and my being here is just to observe what you do and whether any interesting news arises!" Tang Wen said calmly: "Of course, there are other things and reasons I can’t disclose to you either."
Ye Xunhuan slowly exhaled a thick cloud of smoke: "Seems your big boss is still a rather good boss!"
"Yes, he’s definitely the best boss I’ve encountered!" Tang Wen affirmed heavily.
"Tang Wen, let’s talk about something more realistic!"
"Go ahead?"
"If, one day, I clash with the big boss, and if Wei Zixu chooses to stand on my side, what about you?"
