The eastern sky had begun to lighten, and two cars drove into Ye Cheng's large villa. As soon as the vehicles came to a stop, Sister Wu rushed out wearing a robe. Upon seeing everyone, she smiled broadly but first supported Ye Cheng and quietly asked, "Who is this young man with Xiaofei? I don't think I've seen him before."
Ye Cheng chuckled and whispered something to her. Sister Wu quickly nodded and ran back to the hall, giving instructions to a few maids who had just woken up.
For Fei Hu, the villa was merely something he had heard about. That night, following Yingzi, he had hurried in and rushed out without having a chance to see what it was like inside. He never expected to enter the villa again today. Everything inside felt surreal, like something out of a movie—spacious living rooms and high-end elegant decor that reflected the owner's unique lifestyle.
"Stop looking around and go take a bath. I've already prepared your clothes," Yingzi said as she walked over and patted Fei Hu on the shoulder, smiling brightly.
Fei Hu had initially planned to get out of the car midway, but Ye Xiaofei didn’t say anything and simply drove him straight to the villa, making his intentions clear. Now being told to take a bath, it seemed they had everything planned out for him. After spending days in the forest, he must have gotten quite dirty; taking a bath was indeed urgent.
Fei Hu opened the bathroom door and was stunned. It looked like something from a movie where concubines bathed—an enormous bathtub that could easily fit two or three people, let alone just one. The key feature was the large pool filled with steaming hot water, with rose petal-like flowers floating on the surface, filling the bathroom with an enticing fragrance that refreshed his senses.
He quickly stripped off his clothes and jumped in, ready to enjoy himself thoroughly.
Meanwhile, at Ye Wei's home, Ye Wu was sipping Dim Sum and softly said, "Second Brother, it's been several days since the old man left; there hasn't been any news at all. I don’t feel like it’s as you said—they're just on vacation. If they were genuinely enjoying themselves by playing in the water, Sister Wu would definitely be with them."
Ye Wei took a sip of tea, savoring it before replying, "I think you're overthinking it. Whether or not Sister Wu is with them doesn’t really indicate anything. Whether they are traveling or not, an old man in his seventies taking a young girl along isn’t likely to stir up much trouble."
"Hehe! Second Brother, it's not that I'm being overly cautious; you should know better than I do how formidable that old man is. When he sent Ye Xiaofei to you, do you think it was just for show? I believe this situation is more complicated than it seems! It must be that you've run into some trouble that he caught wind of and wants to take you down all at once. Don’t you think so?" Ye Wu said with a laugh.
Ye Wei slammed his teacup down on the table angrily and asked sharply, "What problem do you think I have?"
"Hehe, Second Brother, you know better than I do. Let’s be straightforward; we’re all in this together. If that old man decides to act against us, none of us can escape. But I’ve noticed that you seem indifferent about this matter and keep pushing me forward alone; that's rather ungrateful. You can't just let me fight while you sit back and reap the rewards!" Ye Wu said with a frown, his tone revealing his displeasure.
Ye Wei stood up angrily, hands behind his back, and paced back and forth in the living room, exasperatedly asking, "So what do you want me to do, stab him directly with a knife?" He pointed at Ye Wu, looking somewhat ferocious.
"Hahaha, come on Second Brother, do you dare? I'm not saying you should do it yourself; I mean we should take some measures to make the old man feel it. That way, I'll have the chance to act and gradually take over his territory. By then, won't the Dragon Tiger Gang be ours?" Ye Wu said with a sly grin, as if he were already sitting in the position of the leader of the Dragon Tiger Gang.
Ye Wei shot a glance at Ye Wu and coldly replied, "At the end of last month, I already cut off the payments for the villa. The old man nearly had a heart attack over the phone. You think that's not enough? Do you really want me to choke him? Don't forget, he's our father."
"So what? Those who oppose me will perish; those who follow me will thrive. Who told him not to know what's good for him?" Ye Wu said, revealing a fierce expression.
Ye Wei glanced at Ye Wu and felt a bit uneasy. He knew he had to be cautious of this person; if he gained power, his own good days would be numbered!
Fei Hu enjoyed a whole day at the villa. In the evening, after eating and drinking well, it was only after multiple requests that Yingzi finally took him back to his rental house. On the way, Yingzi revealed that Ye Cheng wanted to rent a better building for Fei Hu to live in because the conditions here were too poor. However, Fei Hu smiled and declined Yingzi's offer.
Upon opening the door, a musty smell hit him. This rundown place was just like that; if it wasn't ventilated properly, it would have an unpleasant odor. Fei Hu hurriedly opened the window to let some fresh air in and then remembered the phone in the shoebox. When he went out this time, Yingzi advised him not to bring his phone, so he followed her advice. Fortunately, it wouldn't have mattered anyway; there was no signal in these deep mountains and old forests.
Fei Hu took out his phone and was surprised to see that this Nokia phone was truly reliable; after five or six days, the battery still had charge. When he turned it on, he found over ten missed calls. While he was in City A, no one called him for days; now that he was away, it seemed like people were calling on purpose.
These ten-plus calls were actually from two people: one was Wang Qian, whom he didn't need to worry about; the other was Xia Yan, who had called repeatedly. Ever since she lost money gambling last time, Fei Hu hadn't seen her again or received any calls from her. Since she was a woman and he didn't have much expectation of her anyway, he didn't take the initiative to reach out.
With so many calls, there must be something going on. Fei Hu sighed; it seemed like his life was all about serving women. When he finally connected the call, Xia Yan's excited voice came through: "Hello! Where have you been? You've ignored so many calls! Now you finally return my call—what does that mean? Do you look down on people?"
This woman spoke like a machine gun. Fei Hu finally managed to interject: "Hey! What do you want from me? Can you get to the point?"
Xia Yan then realized she had talked too much and quickly said, "I want to see you. Wait for me at the intersection of Yuzhong Road; I'll be there shortly." After saying that, she hung up without giving Fei Hu a chance to respond.
Fei Hu listened to the beeping sound on the phone and shook his head helplessly.
As the lights began to glow, City A was bustling with activity. Fei Hu stood at the intersection, gazing at the flickering neon lights in the night. He felt a bit lost, as if he couldn't find direction in life. The calmness and composure he had in the Great Forest seemed to have vanished here. Suddenly, a car horn blared beside him. Fei Hu turned to see Xia Yan sitting in the car, smiling at him.
As soon as Fei Hu got into the car, Xia Yan leaned over and sniffed him, saying, "Wow! You're doing quite well now! Smelling like you've just had a rose bath." This woman was too perceptive; she could tell he had just enjoyed such a luxury.
Turning his head, Fei Hu noticed that Xia Yan, whom he hadn't seen for some time, appeared slightly more voluptuous. In the late autumn season, she still wore a short skirt, exuding an irresistible charm. When his gaze fell on her chest, where two treasures were subtly visible, the restlessness that had quieted down within him began to stir again.
Xia Yan playfully rolled her eyes at Fei Hu and teased, "Look at your expression; it's as if you've never seen a woman before."
Fei Hu replied with a smile, "I really haven't seen one like you—one who values style over warmth."
Xia Yan laughed happily as she started the car. Soon they were caught in traffic. Watching the colorful lights flash by outside the window, Fei Hu suddenly felt that life was actually quite exciting; he just wasn't ready for it yet.
After driving for more than twenty minutes and winding through streets, Xia Yan surprisingly pulled into her residential area. After parking, she smiled and said, "Come on up! I have something good waiting for you to eat."
Women love beauty; not only did she look radiant herself, but she also kept her room spotless and cozy. When Fei Hu sat down on Xia Yan's sofa, he felt incredibly comfortable. It seemed that life without women was indeed lacking.
Xia Yan went to her room to change into a set of pajamas and then said with a smile, "Just wait a moment; something wonderful is about to be revealed."
"It wouldn't be a beauty feast, would it?" Fei Hu laughed happily. For some reason, he never felt constrained when he was with Sun Li or Xia Yan; he could always be his true self.
