Luo Chen didn't explain and left with the waiter. Fang Xue naturally followed, curious about what Luo Chen wanted to do.

Upon seeing the general manager, the waiter explained the situation.

After listening, the general manager smiled at Luo Chen and said, "You really don't need to pay. I misunderstood you earlier. This order is waived, you don't need to pay."

Luo Chen glanced at Fang Xue, who was standing not far behind him, and said to the general manager, "Come here for a moment."

"good……"

The general manager, not understanding what was going on, followed Luo Chen to the other side.

Seeing Luo Chen's strange behavior, Fang Xue pursed her lips and stood still.

"What's wrong?" the general manager asked.

"It's really not a big deal."

Luo Chen said, "You've already made up for the previous misunderstanding with the cake, so there's no need for that."

"But……"

Luo Chen interrupted, "I know you mean well, but this is her first birthday, so I hope to avoid leaving her with any regrets."

"ah?"

Upon hearing this answer, the general manager gaped and looked at Fang Xue, who was standing still in the distance, with great surprise.

Looking her up and down, the girl's clothes were of a high standard and she wasn't the kind of person who couldn't afford to celebrate her birthday.

Given the girl's demeanor and appearance, the general manager completely failed to understand what Luo Chen meant by those words.

Luo Chen smiled and said, "If you hadn't brought out the cake, I probably would have agreed. So it's good that you know about this; there's no need to tell everyone."

The general manager nodded blankly, then took Luo Chen and paid the bill.

Seeing Luo Chen return, Fang Xue didn't ask any questions. Even though she was curious, she still wouldn't ask.

As Luo Chen and I walked to the restaurant entrance, a waiter standing at the reception desk took out Luo Chen's bicycle keys and said respectfully.

"Sir, enjoy your meal. Your car is right there."

Fang Xue looked over, and the shame that had disappeared returned to her face.

In the row of parking spaces, all kinds of cars were parked quietly, looking perfectly normal and without any problems.

One parking space looked rather empty, which surprised me.

A rare, discontinued 28-inch bicycle sat there quietly, standing out from the crowd and attracting attention.

Luo Chen unlocked the chain, patted the back seat, and said to Fang Xue, "Come on, get in the car, I'll take you back."

Fang Xue reluctantly walked over, and facing the onlookers, she remained silent for a moment before sitting down.

"Hold on tight, grab my clothes so you don't fall off again."

"You don't need to tell me!"

Fang Xue grabbed Luo Chen's sleeve, and Luo Chen stepped onto the foot pedal, facing the gazes of others, and drove away as the bell on the vehicle rang.

...

The evening breeze in Ningcheng was slightly chilly, and the decorations on the streets added to the festive atmosphere.

A BMW stopped in front of the Supervision Bureau, and Xu Fei got out of the car and walked inside.

In the prison cell.

The loudspeaker that had been blaring all day finally stopped.

Chen Cheng and Nicholas Zhao Si lay on the bed, looking haggard with unfocused eyes, as if they had suffered severe trauma.

Unfortunately, Han Zhiruo changed the song halfway through, and the song "Eat a Peach, It's So Cold" completely broke their spirits and made them lose their appetite.

They never imagined they could have such a deep fear of a song.

In the opposite cell, Ye Lin sat cross-legged on the bed, eyes closed, circulating his qi. Perhaps due to his previous experience, he was much more numb this time. After resisting for a long time, he finally calmed down and began to circulate his qi.

As a result of misfortune, he was able to break through from the fourth level to the fifth level of his cultivation technique, and his strength improved significantly.

Hearing the sound of the iron bars at the door opening, Ye Lin opened his eyes.

Soon, footsteps approached and then stopped at the door.

Ye Lin was somewhat surprised to see Xu Fei.

After the last get-together, Ye Lin sensed that Xu Fei was no ordinary person and wanted to recruit him as a subordinate.

Xu Fei hesitated at first and did not agree immediately. He agreed a day later, but he also had to get Ye Lin to promise him a chance to make a name for himself.

Ye Lin didn't take this seriously at all. As the Dragon King of the Dragon King Palace, fame, status, wealth, and so on were all easily attainable for him.

As long as Xu Fei performs well, none of these will be problems.

What Ye Lin finds strange now is why Xu Fei came here at this time.

Could it be that they came to see him?

“Dragon King, I’ve come to bail you out,” Xu Fei said.

"What!"

Ye Lin quickly got out of bed and went over.

"Yes, they have agreed."

"..."

Ye Lin didn't speak, but instead frowned. In the afternoon, judging from Han Zhiruo's appearance, this matter wouldn't be over until he was locked up for a day or two. How come he was suddenly allowed to be released on bail?

Did the Ling and Han families put pressure on her?

Thinking of this.

Ye Lin smiled.

A wicked smile reappeared on his face.

Xu Fei looked at Ye Lin, who didn't speak but instead showed that kind of smile, and scratched his head woodenly.

He tried to imitate it and discovered that this smile was something no ordinary person could produce; the arc of the smile was practically inhuman.

Xu Fei had no idea what Ye Lin was thinking; he only saw the arrogance and disdain on Ye Lin's face.

After signing the document, Ye Lin wanted to see if Han Zhiruo would appear, but after waiting for a while, Han Zhiruo still didn't show up.

Ye Lin couldn't help but feel somewhat disappointed.

Then he got into the car with Xu Fei and left the Supervisory Bureau.

...

The next day.

Rockwell Group.

Raphael arrived at the group early.

She went to find the handsome guy she met yesterday, just as he had instructed.

Unexpectedly, she actually found it and even unexpectedly met Luo Chen's parents.

Upon learning that she had come to apply for a job at the Luo Group, Chen Fen became the interviewer and asked Raphael a few questions.

Before coming here, Raphael had done her homework. As one of the twelve winged seraphim of the Dragon King's Palace, she would familiarize herself with the information required for the mission beforehand.

Raphael answered Chen Fen's questions with ease, earning Chen Fen's appreciation.

Upon learning of the job Raphael was applying for, Chen Fen did not hesitate and immediately offered it to him.

Raphael was quite surprised by this; she thought it would take some effort, but it turned out to be so simple.

I arrived at the office.

Raphael saw the brown sugar. As Luo Chen's secretary, the brown sugar was quite important in the group.

However, starting today, she will replace Hongtang as her secretary.

Being by Luo Chen's side, she was better able to obtain intelligence, gather information, and then report back to the Dragon King's Palace.

The Luo family is one of the targets of the Dragon King Palace, and Luo Chen is the president of the Luo Group.

Raphael was confident he could accomplish this task and manipulate Luo Chen at will.

Seeing Brown Sugar busy organizing documents, Raphael walked over and watched curiously for a while before asking, "What are you doing?"

Brown Sugar didn't look up; it continued working.

"These are the project documents related to Fang's Group. I'm preparing to organize them and hand them over to Vice President Zhao."

"The Fang family?"
