In another room of the hotel, Ye Fan was watching the panoramic surveillance footage, clearly observing everything happening in the room.

In fact, from the beginning, Ye Fan didn't let those thugs touch Zhang Xiaofan, he just had Sun Ning bring in two women to create an "illusion" for Zhang Xiaofan, making her think something had occurred.

Behind Ye Fan, Xu Jie's voice came through: "Is it really okay to torment a young girl like this?"

"Sister Xu, you're really generous. If I hadn't switched the drugs, she was truly prepared to feed the powder to your son. For someone so young, consuming that much would likely impair his intelligence, if not worse. And now you're speaking up for her?" Ye Fan frowned.

Xu Jie's face darkened: "Are you implying that I'm… a hypocritical saint?"

Ye Fan shook his head: "I didn't mean that, don't misunderstand. To be fair, she's just a young girl who just turned adult. You and I are both police officers, and based on the principle of teaching without discrimination, we should not seek revenge. It's best to let her learn a lesson so she can lead a normal life. Although she had malicious intentions, at least she was stopped before she could do evil. That's a small lesson for her, but her father must be legally punished!"

"Sounds like… you're more of a judge." Xu Jie looked at Ye Fan with a complex expression, slightly incredulous.

Yesterday, she merely regarded Ye Fan as a boy-next-door. After Ye Fan showed off, she gave him a "reward," not expecting that today she would find herself somewhat impressed by Ye Fan's integrity.

"Sister Xu, the outside world now believes your son is dead, even those underworld forces won't use him to threaten you anymore. I will have your son temporarily sent to Hua Hai City. Consider it a summer holiday for him. Once this case ends and Director Zhang and other corrupt officials are dealt with, your son can return to your side." Ye Fan said.

"Thank you." Xu Jie moved in front of the sofa, half-kneeling before Ye Fan, placing her hand on his leg, lifting her face with mature charm and seductive expression, she smiled, "Aren't you going to let me repay you properly? You've helped my son and me so much, I have nothing to offer. Even if I repay you, it's what you deserve; you shouldn't feel burdened, just let me do it."

Ye Fan smiled: "Sister Xu, I've told you before, we children just need beautiful memories. You're so outstanding, if this continues, I might make mistakes."

Xu Jie's expression darkened, "Looks like the women around you must be very happy. Poor me never met a man as good as you."

Ye Fan stood up, and Xu Jie followed suit. Ye Fan had to return to the villa first, and Xu Jie had to return to the city bureau. It seemed like their paths had diverged, and Ye Fan wouldn't return to Ning Hai City anymore.

"Sister Xu, take care of yourself. I hope that when I see you again, you'll be as beautiful as now." Ye Fan smiled.

"You just know how to say sweet things. When you see me again, I'll probably be so old you won't recognize me. Haha. Don't think Sister Xu has feelings for you, in my eyes, you're just a young boy!"

Xu Jie escorted Ye Fan downstairs, watching his figure disappear into the distance. Her expression suddenly turned gloomy, unable to hold back her tears. The feeling of loss was so painful, but she knew there was no possibility with Ye Fan.

"As I was born, you were not; when you were born, I was old…"

...

...

Ye Fan walked out of the hotel, just about to hail a taxi back to the villa, Sun Ning came out from inside, "Mr. Ye, the car is ready. Shall we drive you back?"

"Okay." Ye Fan looked at Sun Ning, smiling and nodding, "Thanks."

"It's our duty to serve you because you are the behind-the-scenes owner of the Han Group. Even the young miss is just your servant." Sun Ning said, gesturing for the car to come over, with even the driver being female, "Mr. Ye, please."

Sun Ning personally opened the car door for Ye Fan, and after he got in, she seated herself in the passenger seat.

After they started driving, Sun Ning said, "The Miss Hu you instructed us to protect has already taken a private plane to Nan Hai City. There, we will provide the most stringent armed protection to ensure Sun Ronghe and other underworld people can't threaten her life. Besides, the young miss instructed us to arrange for twenty popular female stars in the entertainment industry for you. Here is the list; if you're interested, you can have them come over to accompany you anytime…"

As she said this, Sun Ning handed a document to Ye Fan.

Ye Fan opened it. Every page featured a famous movie or singing celebrity, all household names, with detailed information on each.

After skimming a few pages, Ye Fan smiled and handed the document back, "Are these people all under your control?"

"A few of these actresses belong to our Han Group's entertainment and management companies, but most are from other companies. However, we have absolute allocation rights. In this field, once Young Master Ye asks, they have no guts to refuse, whether married or with children or not." Sun Ning said solemnly.

"Hmph." Ye Fan nodded, "One must admit, these actresses are stunning in appearance and fame, capable of stirring any man's heart. But like you said, since they are beyond their control, what's the point in obtaining them? Drive me back quickly, I've got things to deal with."

After Ye Fan's cultivation reached the Divinity Transformation Stage, he undeniably developed more dependency on women. But he tells himself that he already has many female companions, and he still owes Li Zhaojun a formal wedding ceremony, which prevents them from taking the final step.

And those actresses seem like mutual targets for men. Seeing luminous beauties on screen ignites a desire to claim them for oneself. Even before his cultivation, Ye Fan found it hard to resist psychologically.

This shows Han Qing'er knows how to please Ye Fan. Han Qing'er also understands that with only her strength, she cannot win Ye Fan's heart because he never considered her an equal partner, only a tool.

"Mr. Ye, whether or not you need it, Miss Han has already prepared for you." As they were nearing the villa, Sun Ning suddenly said, "Among these twenty actresses, we'll find six to eight near Hua Hai City and Ning Hai City, then secretly gather them in a private chamber in Ning Hai City. Here's the address; they will arrive around eight tonight, available until six tomorrow morning. You can go anytime. As soon as you step through that gate, these women will know what to do. You shouldn't feel burdened."
