After the divorce, the aloof CEO begged me not to withdraw my investment.

Ye Feng glanced at him but didn't say anything.

He tolerated Liu Qingxing because of Qingyi.

But today's series of provocations made him very unhappy.

This kind of sarcasm was especially unpleasant in front of Qin Yifei.

He is Liu Qingyi's boyfriend and has rescued her many times in critical moments.

In contrast, Qin Yifei, Liu Qingyi's rival, did not appear when she needed help the most.

Liu Qingxing's attitude today was truly disgusting.

Qin Yifei glanced at Liu Qingxing with some surprise, then looked at Ye Feng.

Judging from Liu Qingxing's attitude, he could tell that Ye Feng was probably a very ordinary person, and he didn't understand why Liu Qingyi would choose such a man.

Before returning to China, he thought he would be facing an opponent like Su Hao. Could it be that the information he received was incorrect?

Liu Qingyi's relationship with this Mr. Ye didn't seem as close as she had imagined. Just as the three men were engaged in some undercurrents, a clear voice rang out from the restaurant: "Don't leave!"

Liu Qingyi walked out of the restaurant, staring sharply at Liu Qingxing: "This is my home, you have no right to kick people out."

“I’m a member of the Liu family, how can I not be qualified?” Liu Qingxing retorted, sticking out her neck.

"I am the head of the Liu family. You are not qualified in front of me!" Liu Qingyi said firmly.

Ye Feng remained silent, but felt a surge of joy within him.

Seeing this, Qin Yifei quickly tried to smooth things over: "Qingxing, don't be angry, we can talk things over."

"This is a matter for the Liu family, you have no right to interfere!" Liu Qingyi refused Qin Yifei without any politeness.

“He has always been a member of the Liu family!” Liu Qingxing argued.

Liu Qingyi disliked Qin Yifei, but since Qin Yifei brought benefits to the Liu family, she had no choice but to endure it.

Liu Qingyi took Ye Feng's arm and introduced him generously, "This is my man, Ye Feng."

Liu Qingxing's face was ashen, as if he had swallowed a fly.

Qin Yifei's face was gloomy, and he replied with difficulty, "Qingyi, then I wish you happiness first. However, I also have the right to pursue you."

"My goals are twofold: first, to multiply my capital several times over; second, to win you back."

Ye Feng scoffed and curled his lip in disdain.

He thought Qin Yifei's grand pronouncements were as childish and laughable as children playing house.

Liu Qingyi hesitated for a moment: "I can help you with the first goal. As for the second..."

She gave Ye Feng a meaningful look, "We'll see."

A glint of light flashed in Qin Yifei's eyes: "Alright, I'll wait."

Liu Qingyi glanced at the time: "I have a meeting in a bit, I have to go now."

Qin Yifei immediately chimed in, "I'll join in too. I was the one who facilitated this cooperation between the Liu family and Lingyun Group."

Liu Qingyi was somewhat surprised: "Lingyun Group? You've already invested in them?"

"Not bad," Qin Yifei said smugly.

Liu Qingyi was a little embarrassed, afraid that Ye Feng would be unhappy.

Seeing this, Ye Feng tactfully said, "If you have work to discuss, then hurry up and go."

Liu Qingyi felt a great weight lifted off her shoulders.

She never expected Ye Feng to understand her so well.

Ye Feng shrugged: "Don't worry about me, I need to get ready and go to work too."

Qin Yifei interrupted their eye contact: "Lingyun's representative will be here soon. We need to set off quickly. We can discuss some details on the way."

Liu Qingyi nodded: "I'll go home for dinner tonight."

Ye Feng's lips curled up slightly: "Okay, I'll cook."

After seeing Liu Qingyi and Qin Yifei off, Ye Feng gently closed the door, and the smile on his lips vanished the moment he turned around.

He took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag.

He has his own things to do.

Ye Feng drove to the branch office warehouse. Xu San and Wu Dan were already waiting inside.

Upon seeing Ye Feng, the two immediately came to greet him.

"Brother Feng!" Xu San called out respectfully.

"President Ye," Wu Dan greeted him as well.

Ye Feng nodded, walked straight to a table deep in the warehouse, sat down, and tapped the table: "Wu Dan, report to the security department tomorrow."

Wu Dan was taken aback for a moment, then realized what he meant: "Yes, President Ye."

"There's one more thing," Ye Feng paused, looking at Wu Dan, "help me investigate Qin Yifei's background."

"Qin Yifei?" Xu San repeated the name in confusion.

Ye Feng explained, "It's the one who was with Liu Qingyi."

Wu Dan nodded: "Understood."

He took out his phone and started operating it.

A faint smell of smoke filled the air, and the warehouse fell silent for a moment.

A moment later, Wu Dan looked up: "President Ye, I found out. This Qin Yifei, in just six months, went from an intern to a professional manager with an annual salary of several million. That's some speed of promotion..."

Ye Feng waved his hand: "There's no need to investigate any further. Liu Qingyi should be able to make her own judgment."

He paused, then added, "The most important thing now is to find out what's wrong with the branch office's accounts."

Wu Dan's expression also turned serious: "I've discovered a strange expense. The amount is fixed, but it's always hidden under a different name."

Ye Feng frowned: "How much?"

Wu Dan reported a number.

Ye Feng pondered for a moment, then tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table.

"Find the corresponding invoice and see if we can find anything," Ye Feng finally said.

Wu Dan nodded: "Okay."

Ye Feng stood up, walked to the warehouse door, and looked back at Xu San and Wu Dan: "Thank you for your hard work."

The two quickly responded, "Of course, Brother Feng/President Ye."

After the two left, Ye Feng suddenly remembered someone.

"Xiaoyue, let's have dinner together tonight. Let's invite Xiaoran too."

Ye Feng finished editing the text message and clicked send.

Soon, Kong Xiaoyue's reply popped up: "Oh, treating everyone to dinner? Are you interested in my Xiaoranran?"

Ye Feng looked at the message on the screen and smiled helplessly.

This girl really loves to joke around.

"What are you thinking about? I need your help with something," Ye Feng replied quickly.

"Alright, alright, seeing how sincere you are, I'll reluctantly agree. However, there will be one extra person at lunch today. Who it is is a secret for now." Kong Xiaoyue kept it a secret.

"A mystery guest, huh? Okay, I'll be watching." Ye Feng replied.

The dinner was arranged at a barbecue restaurant near the company, a prominent location that was easy to find.

Ye Feng was used to arriving early, so he arrived at the agreed location more than ten minutes ahead of time.

However, Kong Xiaoyue and Qin Xiaoran were already waiting by the roadside.

Ye Feng noticed that Qin Xiaoran's makeup was even more exquisite than Kong Xiaoyue's today.

He walked up to the two women, smiling and greeting them, "Good evening, ladies!"

Then, looking at Qin Xiaoran, he exclaimed sincerely, "Beautiful Qin, you look especially stunning today!"

Qin Xiaoran covered her mouth and chuckled: "President Ye is so sweet-talking today, he knows how to say the right thing."

"Just telling the truth," Ye Feng shrugged.

Seeing this, Kong Xiaoyue pretended to be angry and pouted: "Ye Feng, what about me? Am I pretty?"

Ye Feng glanced at Kong Xiaoyue, then at Qin Xiaoran, and said with a smile, "Beauty is beauty in its own way."
