"Who?"
Ye Meiqi's voice rang out as she shouted towards the source. The moment she laid eyes on Ye Yunfeng, she was momentarily stunned.
He wore a well-tailored suit, his short hair meticulously styled, and his features were strikingly handsome. There was an ethereal quality to him, and his deep-set eyes reflected a maturity that seemed at odds with his youthful face.
Whoever said that a person's maturity is determined by their experiences rather than their age was certainly speaking of this man.
"You are..."
Ye Meiqi quickly withdrew her foot, a bright smile appearing on her face.
The man glanced at the disheveled An Nuan on the ground. He strode forward and gently helped her up, carefully inspecting her hands. When he noticed the redness on them, a flicker of concern flashed in his eyes. However, upon seeing the gemstone An Nuan held, Ye Yunfeng's gaze deepened.
"My wife has no need to steal; as for these items, they are better left untouched."
Ye Yunfeng took An Nuan's brocade box, and thinking he intended to give it away, An Nuan hurriedly pressed down on his hand. "No, this was given to me by my father. I can't give it to her."
This was the only keepsake her father had left her.
"Be good, just hand it over to me."
Ye Yunfeng gently stroked her hair in comfort. Ye Meiqi watched the scene unfold before her, her mind echoing with Ye Yunfeng's earlier address to Lu An Nuan.
"Madam?"
Could it be that Lu An Nuan has gotten married so quickly?
And to such an outstanding man?
Just looking at the man's suit, which must be worth a fortune, custom-made and hand-tailored—something that ordinary people can't afford. Someone like Xiao Ruoyu wouldn't even dare to think about it.
What is this man's background? When did C City have someone like him? She has been mingling in high society, yet she hasn't noticed him at all.
If he truly belongs to a wealthy family and is such an impressive man, she would have certainly taken note.
She even knows the young master of C City, Chu Lingchuan, so how could she not know about anyone else?
Lost in her thoughts, she barely noticed Ye Yunfeng placing a brocade box in front of her. "Is this yours?"
Ye Yunfeng asked, and An Nuan was puzzled as to why he was asking Ye Meiqi.
Does he not believe her words?
A sense of inexplicable grievance welled up inside her. Does he not see that Ye Meiqi is deliberately making things difficult for her? Or does he also think that Lu An Nuan is lying, believing she wouldn't possess something so valuable?
"…Yes, it is."
Ye Meiqi hesitated for a moment but ultimately affirmed it with determination.
There were no witnesses; the only one was Xiao Ruoyu.
As long as she kept her mouth shut, Xiao Ruoyu would definitely stand by her side. She couldn't believe that they could frame Lu An Nuan.
Who knows, this man might even be hired by Lu An Nuan to play a part. As for that suit, it was probably rented. Otherwise, why would she not know of such a person in the wealthy circles of C City?
"How much?"
Ye Yunfeng asked disdainfully. An Nuan frowned even deeper and tugged at Ye Yunfeng's sleeve, but his large hand wrapped around her small one, squeezing it tightly. An Nuan couldn't break free and had to let him be.
"This..."
Ye Meiqi hesitated. Just that moment of hesitation prompted Ye Yunfeng to press further: "Since it's Miss Ye's item, how could you forget the price?"
"I..."
Ye Meiqi opened her mouth, and Ye Yunfeng wasn't in a hurry; his deep-set eyes seemed to see through everything.
Ye Meiqi gritted her teeth and blurted out an exorbitant price, "Fifty million!"
"Heh!"
Ye Yunfeng pulled out a check and casually wrote down the figure of fifty million. With his long fingers, he tore off the check and said nonchalantly, "Fifty million is nothing to me. As long as my wife likes it, several hundred million wouldn't be a problem. It's just that such valuable items can be traced back to the buyer, and when the time comes..."
