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

Seeing his expression, Wu Dagui felt smug. "How about this, Tingting will have a meal with me, and we'll call it even."

He stared at Li Tingting with a lecherous look.

"You're dreaming!" Yu Xiaoshu roared, shielding Li Tingting behind him.

He could endure poverty and humiliation, but he would never allow his friends to suffer such disgrace.

Li Tingting looked at Yu Xiaoshu in surprise, while Ye Feng observed everything with great interest.

Wu Dagui picked at his ear with his little finger. "It's no use having an opinion. Can you even come up with 50,000 yuan?"

Yu Xiaoshu gritted his teeth, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

He had no money, but he couldn't back down.

He turned to look at Ye Feng, his eyes filled with hope.

Ye Feng took out a bank card from his bag and handed it to Yu Xiaoshu. "Between brothers, no need for formalities. Here's 100,000. I'll tell you the PIN in a bit. Go, slap him in the face."

Yu Xiaoshu took the bank card, his eyes slightly moist.

Ye Feng was helping him, and he would always remember this kindness.

"Brother Feng, my good buddy! I'll pay you back next month!"

He turned to face Wu Dagui, slammed the bank card on the table, and said, "It's just 50,000 yuan, right? I'll pay double! Stay away from Li Tingting from now on, or I'll beat you up every time I see you!"

Wu Dagui scoffed, patted the bank card with his hand, and said contemptuously, "Oh, what are you trying to prove with borrowed money?"

Yu Xiaoshu retorted, "This wasn't borrowed; it's because my brother is capable! What, you're not convinced?"

Wu Dagui glanced sideways at Ye Feng, who had remained silent, and sized him up. "Who are you?"

Ye Feng said calmly, "I am Xiaoshu's friend."

Wu Dagui curled his lip in disdain, "Friends? With his poor appearance, what kind of friends could he have? How much money does he make a month? 100,000? Don't let your friend be unable to pay you back and end up swindling you too!"

Ye Feng's tone remained calm and composed. "He's my brother. Even if he can't pay me back, I'm happy to."

He glanced at Wu Dagui indifferently, his eyes filled with coldness.

Wu Dagui remained defiant, "Oh, you've got quite the nerve! Do you know who I am? In this area, I, Wu Dagui, can make a name for myself with a stomp of my foot..."

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Feng interrupted him, "I don't care who you are, you bullied my brother today, and I'm going to settle this score with you."

Wu Dagui's expression changed, and he said with a fierce but weak tone, "What do you want to do? You want to fight? Do you dare? This is a police station!"

"What's your relationship with her?" Wu Dagui turned his attention to Li Tingting, his eyes lewd.

"She's my sister." Ye Feng's voice suddenly turned cold. "If my sister hadn't stopped you today, you'd be lying in the hospital right now."

Wu Dagui was intimidated by Ye Feng's imposing aura, but he still shouted, "If you have the guts, then kill me! Come on!"

Ye Feng looked at him coldly.

You mustn't use force; this is the police station.

Li Tingting sensed something was wrong and quickly stepped forward to tug at Ye Feng's sleeve, whispering, "Brother Feng, let it go, don't take it to heart."

Upon seeing this, Wu Dagui immediately yelled at Li Tingting, "You're messing around! Your sister-in-law clearly said you don't have a boyfriend, who are they?"

Li Tingting also put away her previous timidity and said firmly, "I will make my own decisions about my marriage, and it's none of your business!"

The group walked out of the police station.

Wu Dagui started the car, rolled down the window before leaving, and yelled at Li Tingting, "You wait, this isn't over! No woman I, Wu Dagui, have my eye on can escape!"

After saying that, he stepped on the gas and sped away.

Li Tingting stood there, stubbornly biting her lip, tears welling up in her eyes, but she refused to let them fall.

Li Tingting felt deeply wronged by her sister-in-law's arrangement.

Her brother cared, but had no power. Thinking of this, she felt even more aggrieved.

Ye Feng frowned slightly as he watched the car speed away. Wu Dagui seemed wealthy, but his domineering manner was unacceptable; he didn't want Li Tingting to be with someone like him.

But how could he easily interfere in the affairs of the Li family?

Ye Feng sighed helplessly.

"Tingting, let's go home," Ye Feng said softly.

Li Tingting could no longer hold back and suddenly threw herself into Ye Feng's arms, bursting into tears.

Ye Feng was somewhat at a loss, standing stiffly in place.

He looked to Yu Xiaoshu for help, hoping he could come and comfort Li Tingting.

Yu Xiaoshu, however, avoided it.

Ye Feng sighed and gently patted Li Tingting's back, comforting her, "Alright, alright, don't cry."

His shirt was soaked, and he felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't want to push her away.

"If I keep crying, my clothes will be soaked."

He tried to defuse the awkwardness with a lighthearted tone.

Li Tingting finally stopped crying and smiled, stepped out of Ye Feng's arms, and wiped away her tears shyly.

She realized that her behavior just now was somewhat inappropriate.

"Ye Feng, thank you so much for your help today," Li Tingting said sincerely.

"Why thank me?" Ye Feng smiled and pointed to Yu Xiaoshu not far away. "If anyone should be thanked, it should be him."

Li Tingting followed Ye Feng's gaze and immediately understood what he meant.

Ye Feng is trying to match her up with Yu Xiaoshu.

Yu Xiaoshu gave her a good impression; he was honest, reliable, and had a good personality.

But ever since she met Ye Feng again that day, his image has lingered in her heart.

The feeling intensified after I met Liu Qingyi.

She was unwilling to settle for second best.

Moreover, she found out that Ye Feng and Liu Qingyi are still in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.

She doesn't want to let go unless Ye Feng gets married.

"Brother Yu is a good person. We are so grateful for his help today." Li Tingting looked at Yu Xiaoshu with a grateful smile on her face.

Ye Feng laughed, "That's just how my brother is, he's always so kind-hearted!"

He deliberately emphasized Yu Xiaoshu's strengths, his eyes occasionally glancing at Li Tingting to observe her reaction.

Li Tingting understood Ye Feng's intentions, but she didn't want to dwell on the topic any longer.

"It's getting late, we should head back." Li Tingting glanced at Ye Feng. "Otherwise, your girlfriend will worry about you."

Ye Feng was taken aback for a moment, then realized, "Yes, it's time to go back."

Turning around, they found Yu Xiaoshu still standing a few meters away, staring at them blankly.

He glared at Yu Xiaoshu helplessly.

Yu Xiaoshu jumped up and rushed over, standing awkwardly in front of Li Tingting.

"Tingting, if Wu Dagui bullies you again next time, just tell me and I'll deal with him!" Yu Xiaoshu said, his face flushed.

Li Tingting smiled gratefully, but didn't say anything.

Ye Feng looked at the two of them and sighed inwardly.

That blockhead!

"Xiaoshu, you take Tingting home," he said bluntly.

Yu Xiaoshu paused for a moment, then nodded.

Li Tingting shook her head, "No need, I don't want to go back to stay tonight."

Ye Feng and Yu Xiaoshu were both stunned.

Yu Xiaoshu grabbed Li Tingting's arm nervously, "Tingting, please don't do anything rash!"

Li Tingting quickly pulled her hand back, "No, you misunderstood. Wu Dagui will definitely go back and complain, and I'll definitely argue with my sister-in-law again when I get back."
