Ye Feng opened the car door and let Liu Qingyi get in first.
He gently closed the car door, walked around to the driver's seat, and got in.
The car slowly started and drove into the night.
"What did your godmother say to you?" Ye Feng broke the silence.
Liu Qingyi turned to look at him and said calmly, "It's a little secret between women."
Ye Feng raised an eyebrow but didn't press the matter further.
After the car entered the residential area and came to a stop, Liu Qingyi suddenly said, "Why don't you go and check on Xiaoran?"
Ye Feng was stunned for a moment.
He had offered to visit Qin Xiaoran several times before, but Liu Qingyi had refused each time.
"You agree?"
Liu Qingyi didn't look at him, but simply gave a soft "hmm".
"I knew you were cold on the outside but warm on the inside," Ye Feng said with a smile.
Liu Qingyi got out of the car, did not respond, and walked straight into the villa.
Watching her retreating figure, Ye Feng felt a warm glow in his heart.
He started the car, turned it around, and drove towards Qin Xiaoran's house.
When they arrived at Qin Xiaoran's house, Ye Feng rang the doorbell.
The door opened quickly, and Kong Xiaoyue appeared in the doorway. Upon seeing Ye Feng, a joyful smile immediately appeared on her face.
"Ye Feng, you've finally arrived!"
"Is Xiao Ran feeling better?" Ye Feng asked with concern.
Kong Xiaoyue shook her head and sighed, "It's still the same old story, always saying she killed Chen Yuhao..."
"Chen Yuhao is truly a scourge; even after he's dead, he continues to haunt us."
He followed Kong Xiaoyue into the bedroom and saw Qin Xiaoran curled up on the bed, her face pale and her mental state extremely poor.
Kong Xiaoyue walked to the bedside and gently patted Qin Xiaoran. "Xiaoran, look who's come to see you?"
Qin Xiaoran suddenly raised her head, her eyes filled with fear, "Don't come any closer... don't bother me..."
"Xiao Ran, it's me, Ye Feng."
Ye Feng softened his tone.
Qin Xiaoran's eyes gradually regained some clarity. She seemed to recognize Ye Feng, and suddenly threw herself into his arms, hugging him tightly and crying her heart out.
"I'm so scared... I keep feeling like Chen Yuhao is clinging to me..."
Ye Feng stiffened for a moment. He gently patted Qin Xiaoran's back, unsure how to comfort her.
Seeing this, Kong Xiaoyue quickly said, "Xiaoran, calm down and sit up first."
However, Qin Xiaoran hugged her even tighter.
Ye Feng sighed softly and continued to comfort Qin Xiaoran until her crying gradually subsided and her breathing became even.
He carefully placed Qin Xiaoran back on the bed and covered her with the blanket.
After confirming that Qin Xiaoran was asleep, Ye Feng quietly walked out.
When Kong Xiaoyue came out, Ye Feng was leaning against the wall, a cigarette flickering between his fingers.
Seeing this, Kong Xiaoyue chuckled: "What, are you afraid you won't be able to explain it when you get back?"
Ye Feng stubbed out his cigarette and nodded helplessly.
"If your sister-in-law knew how much you care about her, she would be overjoyed," Kong Xiaoyue teased.
Ye Feng gave a wry smile, then his expression turned serious: "What are you planning to do about Xiao Ran?"
Kong Xiaoyue sighed: "I plan to take her to see a psychologist tomorrow."
"Oh, right, there's one more thing..."
Ye Feng looked at her, waiting for her to continue.
“That Manager Liu… went to the company to complain, saying that you were slacking off and even assaulted someone, and you may face suspension and observation.”
Ye Feng sneered: "Based on his one-sided statement, the company can't possibly fire me, can they?"
This company originally belonged to him, so why fire him?
What a joke.
Kong Xiaoyue, unaware of Ye Feng's true identity, became anxious upon hearing this: "That guy is no pushover! You'd better be careful! I'll go to his door and make sure he doesn't get away with this!"
"So be it, I don't care if you're suspended."
Manager Liu clearly planned this all along.
Now that the other party has made a move, he no longer needs to hold back.
If the other party does the first thing, then don't blame them for doing the fifteenth.
He was devising a strategy for counterattack.
On his way home, Ye Feng kept thinking about how to deal with Manager Liu.
To set a trap for someone, you must first understand their weaknesses.
This incident made him realize that his loyal and affectionate nature had been taken advantage of by the other party.
So, what are the other party's weaknesses?
Ye Feng carefully recalled his interactions with Manager Liu, and several keywords flashed through his mind.
Gluttonous, cowardly, and lecherous.
The outline of a plan gradually emerged in his mind.
When Ye Feng returned home, he found Liu Qingyi putting down her phone with a smile on her face.
Whose call was it?
Ye Feng asked casually, glancing at Liu Qingyi as he changed his shoes.
"It's work-related," Liu Qingyi said with a smile. "We finalized a project with a partner."
He walked to Liu Qingyi's side and gently put his arm around her shoulder.
Liu Qingyi leaned against him.
Ye Feng remembered Qin Xiaoran's situation and said, "Xiaoran's condition is not good. I went to see her today. She is in a very bad mental state. Xiaoyue said she would take her to see a psychologist."
Liu Qingyi's smile gradually faded, replaced by worry: "Xiao Ran is really heartbreaking. I have a friend who is a psychologist, very professional. I'll give you her contact information later. Just say she's my friend, and she should be able to give you a friend's price."
"That's great, thank you Qingyi."
Ye Feng expressed his heartfelt gratitude and held Liu Qingyi's hand tightly.
Liu Qingyi grasped his hand in return and patted it gently: "Of course, your god-sister is my god-sister. I'm going to the study to handle some documents, you rest for a while."
She got up and walked towards the study, but turned back at the door. "Oh, right, I made two cups of lemon water. You can drink one and wash the other one for me."
As Ye Feng watched Liu Qingyi walk into the study, a smile unconsciously crept onto his lips.
He picked up his water glass and took a sip; the refreshing scent of lemon filled his mouth.
He washed the cup and placed it on the coffee table, feeling a warm glow in his heart.
At exactly nine o'clock, the black Audi A8 came to a steady stop on the side of the road, and Ye Feng turned off the engine.
In the dim light inside the car, Xu San and Wu Dan's faces looked particularly serious.
"That's how it is. I beat up Qi Xue's manager, Liu. Now it depends on the company's reaction. Suspension or fines are both possibilities."
Ye Feng briefly outlined the course of events and his subsequent thoughts.
Xu San frowned and pondered for a moment: "Brother Feng, I'll work for you! If it weren't for you, I'd still be messing around on the streets! I've long since given up on that lousy job of Qi Xue's!"
Wu Dan nodded in agreement: "Brother Feng, me too. Whatever you say, I'll do!"
Ye Feng patted the two of them on the shoulders, a warm feeling welling up inside him.
He will always remember this kindness.
"Actually, I already have a plan in mind. I'm just waiting to see what they do. It'll be good to see what these so-called high-ranking officials are really capable of."
Wu Dan suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "Brother Feng, that Manager Liu carries a laptop with him every day, acting all mysterious. I've never seen him go online."
