"Alright, I will stop smoking."
With the flick a finger, Chen Feng shot his cigarette bud through the air, accurately landing it in a trash bin several meters away.
However, everyone, including Ye Qingqing, missed this detail.
"Qingqing, keeping several million on him is not safe." Li Suqin advised earnestly.
Ye Qingqing decided solemnly, "Why is it not safe? Regardless, you cannot take Chen Feng's money anymore, there's no way around this."
"Alright, alright, I won't take any."
From Li Suqin's gritted teeth, it was clear she was not content with this.
"Let's go inside."
Ye Qingqing linked her arm with Chen Feng's, as they headed into the villa.
Inside the villa where the birthday celebration was being held, everything that needed to be prepared was already in order, and the guests were starting to arrive.
The guests at the party, besides members of the Ye Family, were mostly wealthy or nobles.
Old Sir Ye, donned in a festive robe, was engaging in lively conversations with the arriving guests, wearing a bright smile on his face.
Chen Feng had previously made the acquaintance of Old Sir Ye two years before. Meeting him again today, Chen Feng observed that Old Sir Ye remained vigorous and full of life, his eyes radiant and full of spirit.
"Young Master Long has arrived."
"It really is Young Master Long."
"Young Master Long indeed carries the prestige of Qianzhou's most respected family's heir. He is truly exceptional."
Suddenly, chatter broke out amongst the guests.
A youthful man dressed in white, with an extraordinary demeanor, surrounded by four dark-suited bodyguards, steadily approached Old Sir Ye with a gentle smile on his face.
Old Sir Ye greeted him with a warm smile.
"Elder Ye, on behalf of the Long Family, Long Fei wishes your life to be as boundless as the eastern sea and long as the southern mountains. I bring this small token to express my respect, I hope you will accept it."
Long Fei ceremoniously presented Old Sir Ye with a birthday gift.
"You are too kind, too kind. Young Master Long, please have a seat."
Old Sir Ye replied with a smile.
"Thank you, Elder Ye."
Long Fei slightly bowed, and then casually swept his gaze across the crowd, eventually stopping on Chen Feng.
"Don't say anything improper."
Ye Qingqing hastily advised Chen Feng under her breath.
Ye Qingqing clearly understood the powerful influence that Qianzhou's most respected family held. Offending the Long Family could have unimaginable consequences.
"Don't worry," Chen Feng nodded.
Ye Qingqing took a couple of steps forward to greet Long Fei.
"You must be the shining pearl of the Ye Family, Miss Ye Qingqing, right?"
Long Fei stretched out his hand with a smile on his face.
"Indeed, I'm honored that you recognize me, Young Master Long." Ye Qingqing returned the smile and reached out to shake his hand.
However, when they shook hands, Long Fei did not let go of her hand immediately.
"I have heard of Miss Ye's unparalleled beauty, and now that I see you in person, you are indeed like a celestial being descended from heaven. I must admit, I am somewhat infatuated," Long Fei remarked, squinting his eyes slightly.
Ye Qingqing, her eyes flickering uneasily, tried to withdraw her hand, but Long Fei had a firm grip on it.
This did not escape Chen Feng's notice.
Chen Feng stepped forward swiftly, taking hold of Long Fei's hand and effortlessly breaking his grip before pulling Ye Qingqing to his side. He then spoke lightly, "Everyone knows that my wife is a celestial being, but I have an advice for you. Being a mere mortal, you should not harbor improper thoughts."
"What? Miss Ye, is he your husband?" Long Fei exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, he is."
Ye Qingqing nods. Her first impression of Long Fei was incredibly negative.
At the same time, she was slightly touched by Chen Feng's reaction just now.
"Don't listen to her nonsense, hehe. Young Master Long, my daughter and he are only married on paper,"
At this point, Li Suqin suddenly interrupted from the side.
"A marriage of convenience?" Long Fei's eyes lit up. "Auntie, are you serious?"
"Of course! How could our Ye Family ever settle for such a loser?" said Li Suqin nonchalantly, scrutinizing Long Fei up and down, her face revealing more satisfaction as she does so.
Long Fei's brilliant smile seemed to shine even brighter after Li Suqin's speech.
Chen Feng at this point, felt a chill pierce his heart!
The guests began whispering amongst themselves, thinking that Li Suqin's words were too harsh
"Mom, how could you do something like that?"
Ye Qingqing knew exactly what her mother was thinking, and she was extremely displeased and disappointed with Li Suqin's behavior.
"Don't interfere," Li Suqin glared at Ye Qingqing. She then turned back to Long Fei with a bright smile, "Young Master Long, are you seeing anyone at the moment?"
"Not at all," Long Fei laughed. "In fact, I've just fallen for Miss Ye at first sight. Too bad she's already married."
"I told you already, it's a marriage of convenience. They've never consummated their marriage or anything. You understand, right?" Li Suqin winked at him.
"Is that so? That's great news indeed," Long Fei's eyes gleamed with anticipation.
Ye Qingqing, having listened to their conversation, seethed with rage.
Meanwhile, the fact that Chen Feng remained silent despite the disparaging words exchanged by Li Suqin and Long Fei, made Ye Qingqing's budding affection for him evaporate swiftly.
After taking a deep breath, Ye Qingqing announced in a deep voice, "Young Master Long, if you are here to celebrate my grandfather's birthday, I welcome you. Apart from that, I believe there's no chance of anything else happening between us. I would appreciate it if you and my mother would stop talking nonsense."
"When did speaking the truth become nonsense? Qingqing, Young Master Long is an exceptional gentleman, a hundred times better than that loser Chen Feng. Why don't you consider him instead..."
"Enough!"
Chen Feng had had enough and couldn't hold back anymore.
"What are you getting angry for? You really are useless."
Li Suqin raised her voice, attracting everyone's attention.
Slap.
Chen Feng raised his hand and slapped Li Suqin across the face.
Stunned by the slap, Li Suqin couldn't react. At the same time, the guests were left speechless, staring at Chen Feng in shock.
Chen Feng coldly said, "I have always respected you because you are my elder, and because you are Ye Qingqing's mother. Thus, I've never argued with you. However, your actions tonight have disappointed me. You can't wait to push Ye Qingqing into Long Fei's arms, can you? Being your son-in-law... it is a disgrace."
"Chen Feng, how... how could you! You ungrateful monster! You lived and ate in our house for two years, never doing anything useful. Today, you even dare to hit me, you deserve to be cut into pieces!"
Li Suqin, holding her face, started to weep.
"Chen Feng, how could you resort to violence? This is a bit too much."
Ye Qingqing's face turned pale. She knew that Li Suqin's words would have angered Chen Feng, however, she didn't expect him to react so violently.
"Such a vulgar person. No wonder you are unlikable."
Long Fei said disdainfully.
Bang!
Chen Feng turned around and delivered a powerful kick that sent Long Fei flying several meters away.
Blood dripped from Long Fei's mouth as he stared back at Chen Feng in surprise.
"Some people are beyond your capability to judge."
Chen Feng straightened his collar and with practiced ease, lit another cigarette.
In that moment, Chen Feng became the center of attention for many women present.
"He's so handsome."
"Could he be the Ye Family's son-in-law? Oh my god, he dared to kick Young Master Long... that's hot!"
"What's so hot about that? Hehe, The Ye Family is finished."
With Long Fei's prestigious reputation, Chen Feng daring to assault him meant, in the eyes of everyone present, that the Ye Family was about to meet disaster.
"Chen Feng, you've gone too far."
Ye Qingqing looked pale.
"Too far? I don't think I did anything wrong. Ye Qingqing, I've wanted to understand you more, but now I realize that we're from two different worlds. Let's end this... we're getting divorced!"
Chen Feng said, each word heavy with resolution.
