With a knock on the door, Ye Xiaofei walked in wearing a black skirt. Upon seeing Fei Hu with a silly grin on his face, she felt a surge of anger and said sharply, "What are you doing here when you're supposed to be on duty on the first floor?"
Wang Qian quickly stood up and tried to smooth things over for Fei Hu, saying, "Oh! I just wanted him to help me move this pot of flowers."
"Isn't that something the janitor is supposed to do? How can you let him leave his post? He should be downstairs on duty; it’s unacceptable for there to be no one around," Ye Xiaofei said, raising her voice.
Fei Hu turned to leave. He hadn't expected that such a beautiful woman could be quite intimidating when angry. As he walked away, he sighed; it seemed that he and this female CEO were not going to have a good relationship.
The lobby on the first floor was nearly empty. After standing there for a while, he realized it was just a few people from their unit coming and going. This female CEO seemed to be making a big deal out of nothing, scolding him for no reason. However, Fei Hu sensed that Ye Xiaofei was not just targeting him today; she was also giving Wang Qian a hard time. It appeared she was trying to assert her authority.
"Hey! What are you thinking about? You look so gloomy," Helena approached with a cheerful smile.
Fei Hu stuck out his tongue and recounted how he had encountered Ye Xiaofei in Wang Qian's office and got scolded. After listening, Helena pondered for a moment and said, "What does Wang Qian want? This isn't even your responsibility. You should avoid her in the future; you can't afford to mess with someone like her."
"She's the Vice President; where can I hide?" Fei Hu replied, feeling frustrated.
Helena chuckled and said, "It's fine; I’m just saying. Don't be upset. Let's go have tea together tonight if you're free. I'll explain everything to you, and you'll understand better. How does that sound?" Helena was in a good mood today.
Fei Hu felt annoyed and replied expressionlessly, "Alright! Let's just keep in touch by phone."
In the villa, Yingzi had just gotten out of bed. Last night when she returned, she had shared what happened with Ye Cheng and Ye Xiaofei, as well as Sister Wu. Everyone's faces stiffened as they listened; they thought Yingzi had merely gone out to pursue someone but were shocked to learn about the many hidden secrets behind the situation. Fortunately, Yingzi had brought back what they wanted; otherwise, the risk would have been too great.
Ye Cheng even asked Yingzi what her helper's name was and insisted on thanking him properly. Yingzi changed the subject because Fei Hu didn’t want anyone to know who he was. Moreover, given the potential dangers involved in this matter, Yingzi's actions were also meant to protect Fei Hu.
After changing clothes and heading downstairs, Sister Wu expressed concern for Yingzi: "Why don't you take a break today? You must be exhausted from last night. When we asked your brother to call you, we felt something was off; we didn't expect it would turn into such a big issue."
"It's fine; I can't shake this uneasy feeling until I find that guy who helped Grandpa. This matter can't be delayed any longer," Yingzi said as she hurried down the stairs.
Sister Wu called after her, "Just be careful!" Watching Yingzi's retreating figure, Sister Wu shook her head helplessly.
Today, Yingzi planned to visit the riverside dock since it was the only place she hadn’t searched yet. From her grandfather's description, this person didn’t seem like someone who worked in an office or service industry; he appeared more like someone who did manual labor. The riverside embankment and dock quickly came together in her mind.
X1 sped past the Shengwei Group when Yingzi suddenly thought of Fei Hu. She turned the car, honked the horn, and the security guard at the entrance recognized her vehicle and immediately opened the gate. Yingzi parked the car at the steps and got out, heading towards the lobby.
At that moment, Fei Hu was deep in thought about how to find the elderly person he had saved. The medicine could be crucial for him, perhaps as evidence or something else; he couldn't quite figure it out. Kind-hearted people often think more about others.
"Hey! What are you daydreaming about?" Yingzi suddenly tapped Fei Hu on the shoulder from behind, startling him.
Fei Hu came back to his senses, smiled, and said, "What brings you here?"
"Why can't I come? Just thought I'd drop by to see you," Yingzi replied playfully.
Fei Hu glanced around and noticed there weren't many people before quietly saying, "The events from last night made it to today's front page; things have gotten a bit out of hand."
Yingzi laughed and said, "Thunderous Noise, Little Rain. Real major incidents don't get reported; what gets reported are just trivial matters. They won't come until we're gone, right?"
Fei Hu chuckled but didn't respond. Yingzi looked him up and down, waved her hand, and said, "I'm off; you take care at work!"
Watching the BMW X1 drive out of the gate, Fei Hu felt a bit confused. What kind of people were these? Driving luxury cars, being executives, and still getting into fights at night—it was all too hard to understand.
Ye Wu had just crawled out of his lover Juanzi's bed. As he dressed, he answered a phone call: "What did you say? Someone mobilized Dragon Tiger Gang members for a brawl last night and almost got caught by the police... Don't say anything else; I'm coming back right now." Ye Wu quickly finished dressing and jumped off the bed. He awkwardly twisted his neck; ever since the last attack, his neck had been hurting every few days. He was furious—losing both his woman and his men.
A woman in bed called out seductively, "Darling, can't you sleep a little longer? Is some vixen calling you again?"
As Ye Wu put on his shoes, he replied irritably, "Oh come on! Don't make it worse. Something happened in the gang; I need to rush back to handle it. This is serious." With that, he left.
As soon as Ye Wu left, the woman turned over and grabbed the phone by the bed, whispering into it.
In Ye Wu's home lobby, Little Four hung his head as Ye Wu kicked and scolded him: "You idiot! After working with me for so many years, you should know the rules of the gang. Who told you to take our people out last night?"
"Brother Tiger, you're wrong about me. Aunt Luo said she consulted you first, so she didn't ask again," Little Four mumbled with his head down.
Hearing this made Ye Wu even angrier. He kicked Little Four in the rear end, causing him to wince in pain. Inside, Little Four cursed silently—this was all because of your own messiness with the rules; you're the real idiot!
"Are you still not convinced? You couldn't even pick up a phone to confirm? Would that have killed you?" Ye Wu's anger was still boiling as he slapped a nearby henchman hard across the face with a loud crack.
At this moment, Little Four couldn't stand it any longer. He tilted his neck, blushed, and shouted, "Boss, Brothers are thinking of you. Didn't you go to Sister Juanzi's place last night? We were afraid of disturbing you at home, so..."
"Get lost, useless guy! You make it sound so nice!" Ye Wu grabbed the ashtray from the table and threw it. Little Four dodged to the side, and the ashtray smashed against a pillar, shattering into pieces with a loud crash that was quite alarming.
Little Four thought to himself, didn't you tell me to get lost? Then why not take this opportunity to slip away? If another ashtray comes flying my way and I can't dodge it, my head would be smashed! Little Four exchanged a glance with another blonde guy, and the two quietly slipped out.
Ye Wu calmed down a bit before grabbing the phone on the table. After dialing several numbers without anyone answering, Ye Wu angrily cursed, "Damn woman, she wouldn't have gone to report to Yama King, would she?"
When Yingzi returned home that evening, she had a joyful expression on her face. Ye Cheng immediately asked, "Child, do you have good news? Hurry up and tell us!"
Yingzi glanced at Ye Xiaofei, who was talking to Sister Wu, hesitating to speak. The clever Sister Wu smiled and said, "Alright, let's not interrupt; let Yingzi share her important news."
Ye Xiaofei pretended to be unconvinced and said, "Yingzi, do you have more good news? You really are too capable! With what you've done, I feel embarrassed to eat dinner now."
"Okay, okay, I'm in a hurry!" Ye Cheng couldn't sit still any longer.
Yingzi cleared her throat and happily said, "I found a clue!"
"What? Are you talking about which Young Man?" Ye Cheng was very excited.
Yingzi nodded, and everyone eagerly awaited her next words.
