An awkward silence hung in the air.
An Nuan stared blankly at Ye Yunfeng, unsure whether to nod or shake her head. Denying it now would feel too pretentious; after all, he had heard her. But if she nodded, she would be acknowledging that she was a married woman, bound by her promise to him. If she went on to seduce other men, wouldn’t she be condemned by everyone?
"I..."
"Granted."
Ye Yunfeng spoke those two words and then strode toward the car, a slight smile playing on his lips. He seemed to be in a good mood. Meanwhile, An Nuan stood frozen in place, utterly confused.
Granted?
Had he forgotten that they were already legally married, or was their marriage certificate merely for show?
She jogged after him. No, she needed clarification.
She couldn’t leave things so muddled.
"Ye Yunfeng, wait."
Calling his name for the first time felt awkward. An Nuan hurried to his side and opened her mouth to speak, but noticed Ye Yunfeng was on the phone. Instantly, her words died in her throat, and she lost the courage to continue.
"Mm, I understand."
Ye Yunfeng's expression darkened slightly as he responded to the person on the other end of the line, appearing quite displeased.
After hanging up, he noticed the slightly stunned expression on An Nuan's face. His voice softened a little. "Did I scare you?"
"N-no..."
An Nuan shook her head, hesitating inwardly about whether to ask or not.
"Then what's wrong?"
Ye Yunfeng's large hand ruffled her hair, as if the anger from a moment ago had never existed. An Nuan couldn't help but marvel at how quickly this man's mood could change, like flipping a page in a book.
She immediately closed her eyes, adopting the demeanor of a martyr facing her fate. "We're legally married, after all. If I were to seduce the major shareholder of Star Glory, you wouldn't object, would you?"
"What objection could I have? I can't expect you to give up your work for my sake."
Ye Yunfeng said this with an exaggerated sense of grievance, while also appearing to fully support her career. An Nuan, however, was left bewildered by the mix of sincerity and deception in his words.
Of course, she was just joking. Actually seducing a shareholder? She didn't have the courage for that.
There were plenty of beautiful women in the company; why would a major shareholder be interested in her?
"I see you're quite the successful person. Aren't you afraid of being cuckolded?"
Though she was a coward at heart, she still had to maintain an air of confidence. Upon hearing her words, Ye Yunfeng let out a laugh.
"Didn't I just say that I'd like to see who in this circle dares to cuckold me? As for your desire to seduce Star Glory's shareholder, I think it's a very astute choice and the quickest way to gain fame. But whether they allow you to seduce them depends on your own abilities."
"..."
Being blatantly scorned, An Nuan's cheeks flushed with embarrassment.
Honestly, what Ye Yunfeng said made perfect sense.
Her intention to seduce was one thing; whether they would allow her to do so was another matter entirely.
This clearly indicated that the major shareholder of Star Glory would not be interested in someone like her.
Was she really that undesirable?
"Alright, stop overthinking. Let's head to the casino in the west of the city."
"What's wrong with my mom?"
"They're not releasing her. I need to go myself."
"Oh."
An Nuan nodded and quickly got into the car. The vehicle made its way toward the western part of the city. Meanwhile, inside the casino, the atmosphere was extremely tense. The casino had initially planned to release the woman, but who would have thought that this elderly lady believed she had support and dared to strike someone, completely unaware of her own limitations and the seriousness of the situation?
Now, she had gone and hit the Crown Prince of C City – Chu Lingchuan.
