Tang Wen left, departing from Ye Xunhuan’s office.
As she left, Tang Wen’s face was filled with complexity and turmoil, but also carried an air of depression, looking entirely like she didn’t know what to do.
In contrast, Ye Xunhuan remained as before, quietly sitting in his office, smoking a cigarette, his face full of calm contentment.
As for Ye Xunhuan’s question, how Tang Wen answered, probably only the two of them know.
After leaving Ye Xunhuan’s office, Tang Wen went to the corner of the stairs, took out her phone, and dialed the boss’s number.
She informed the big boss that Ye Xunhuan knew her identity.
The big boss didn’t say much, just told Tang Wen to stay in Jiangzhong City, not to do anything, just to live like an ordinary person.
The big boss’s attitude completely surprised Tang Wen, as if the big boss had already guessed that Ye Xunhuan would know she was the big boss’s person.
With the big boss not saying anything more, Tang Wen naturally wouldn’t do anything. After hanging up the phone, Tang Wen quickly adjusted her mood and went to work.
But Ye Xunhuan did nothing, just sat there quietly on the sofa, lost in thought.
He had verified the first thing Ye Nanfeng had told him from Tang Wen, but what about Wu Mei?
Does Ye Nanfeng really know, and what exactly happened to Wu Mei? Why did Ye Nanfeng say that if he couldn’t find Wu Mei, he would regret it for a lifetime?
Ye Xunhuan racked his brains but couldn’t understand the meaning behind Ye Nanfeng’s words!
After a while, Ye Xunhuan slowly exhaled a heavy breath!
"Ye Nanfeng, oh Ye Nanfeng, what is your background, why is there no information about you at all?"
Ye Xunhuan had someone investigate Ye Nanfeng yesterday, but there was no information. He doesn’t belong to the underworld nor does he seem to belong to the martial arts world, completely like a lone ranger, nobody knows about him.
Of course, if Ye Xunhuan could find Lian Xing now, maybe he could ask her, but Lian Xing is nowhere to be found right now. Even with the intention to inquire, he can’t find anyone!
Helplessly, this filled Ye Xunhuan’s heart with unprecedented helplessness.
Could it be that he really has to become Ye Nanfeng’s successor?
......
Time flew by, and in a flash, three days had passed. Ye Nanfeng once again appeared in front of Ye Xunhuan, as promised.
Ye Nanfeng, just like when Ye Xunhuan first saw him, was holding a bottle of wine, drinking, the whole person in a state of being half-drunk and half-awake.
"How did you think about it?"
Ye Xunhuan looked at Ye Nanfeng in his half-drunk, half-awake state and said lightly, "Aren’t you afraid that I will regret it after agreeing?"
"Not afraid!" Ye Nanfeng said slowly, "If you regret it, I will make you suffer, and I also have the ability to take away one of the women around you, so that you never meet again, like the cowherd and the weaver girl!"
"You..."
"You said it yourself; if you regret it, I can’t suffer losses, right? You tricked me after I told you what you wanted to know!" Ye Nanfeng interrupted Ye Xunhuan directly.
"I have to see Wu Mei first, otherwise how do I know if you’re tricking me?"
"Then forget it, we don’t need to talk. I’ll go drink my wine and live my carefree life, while you slowly find someone."
Saying this, Ye Nanfeng was about to leave, without the slightest reluctance, as if whether Ye Xunhuan became his successor was not very important to him!
"Wait a minute!" Ye Xunhuan hurriedly said.
Ye Xunhuan felt like slapping Ye Nanfeng to death; this guy actually left no room for bargaining, something that had never happened before.
"What’s the matter?" Ye Nanfeng slowly turned his head to look at Ye Xunhuan.
"You have to tell me who you really are, or how can I be your successor?"
"Who I am is not important, the important thing is you become my successor, and after I die, you have to take my place. You just need to agree to this point." Ye Nanfeng said lightly, "I won’t interfere in any of your matters, and if you die, then it’s off!"
"But if you’re alive, you must fulfill your promise, otherwise, I’ll do as I previously said!"
"You mean, you just want me to take over your position, but only after you die?"
"Accurately, when I’m about to die." Ye Nanfeng said seriously, "I estimate, it’ll be at least ten years later!"
"What do you think, agree or not?"
Ye Xunhuan suspiciously glanced at Ye Nanfeng, "Are you sure it’s not now?"
"I had this thought, but the Taiji mark on you is not a good thing. So many people are watching it; if you took my position and fought with them, it would break the rules, and I can’t bear that blame. So, the minimum is to wait until everything settles down."
"It seems your background is not small, subtly hinting at a power above others, transcending constraints!"
"Don’t try to extract information from me. Who am I, what’s my identity, I won’t tell you. Even if you meet Lian Xing someday, that girl may not dare to tell you. At most, she will say I won’t harm you."
"Fine, I promise you!" Ye Xunhuan said heavily, "Now, can you tell me where Wu Mei is?"
"The West!" Seeing Ye Xunhuan agree, Ye Nanfeng said directly without hesitation.
"The West?"
"Western development!" Ye Nanfeng looked at Ye Xunhuan with some disdain, "Go there, you’ll definitely find her, but you’d better go alone and don’t let her know, otherwise she’ll definitely run and won’t meet you!"
"How did she end up in the western development, what happened to her?" Ye Xunhuan asked, full of concern.
"That you’ll have to ask what good deeds you did." Ye Nanfeng smiled knowingly, staring at Ye Xunhuan, "If not for you, she would probably still be in this bustling metropolis now!"
"Me?"
"Could it be me?" Ye Nanfeng said irritably, "But before you find Wu Mei, I have to remind you!"
"Speak!"
"If you find her and bring her back, I bet your wife will completely turn against you!" Ye Nanfeng seriously said, "Maybe your marriage will fall apart directly. Of course, there’s also the possibility that Wu Mei disappears from your sight again!"
"Too many women, manage well, or it’ll drive you to despair!" Ye Nanfeng said somewhat teasingly.
