Xue Mingtai smiled slightly, his eyes filled with a thick emotion.
His gaze was warm with laughter, "If you can't remember, then don't worry about it."
"You and I hit it off at first sight, we will have plenty of time together in the future."
Having said that, he walked over, suddenly spread his arms, and hugged Yang Fei.
Seeing this scene, Sister Ying and the other Elite Offspring were dumbfounded and at a loss for words.
The background of Xue Mingtai was unfathomable.
It was said that he had special connections with countless influential figures in Capital City.
Moreover, in his hands, he wielded an astonishing fortune that was hard to estimate.
Logically, such an imposing figure could have shaken the world with great achievements, either in public service or business.
Yet he chose to retreat from the public eye, find solace in nature, and cultivate his mind and character.
In addition to racing, Xue Mingtai was also a world-renowned artist.
His classic work "Gone with the Wind" once fetched thirty million US dollars at an art auction in Paris, a staggering price.
Innumerable tycoons and great collectors took pride in owning a piece of Xue Mingtai's work.
Such a person was like a king in plain clothes from ancient legends.
Despite his nature of being peaceful and unconcerned with worldly matters, he commanded the utmost respect in the circle of Elite Offspring.
Even when welcoming his girlfriend, Ye Zi, Xue Mingtai had never personally appeared but merely arranged everything.
Therefore, no one had ever tried to approach Xue Mingtai.
He seemed like an unapproachable supreme ruler from ancient times; though amiable and affable, no one dared to offend or approach him lightly.
And Xue Mingtai did not deliberately seek to make friends with anyone.
From his lofty position, he no longer needed to make an effort to win over anyone for any reason.
However, now Xue Mingtai had taken the initiative to hug Yang Fei.
What did this mean?
It meant that in Xue Mingtai's heart, this odd-job man from the hotel was far more honorable and important than any of the Elite Offspring present.
And Sister Ying, with her careful observation, could even detect a rich, special emotion flashing through Xue Mingtai's eyes, indicating some excitement.
A heaviness suddenly set in Sister Ying's heart.
Liang Jiayi also looked astonished.
Her background was already formidable, but it clearly fell short of Xue Mingtai's.
So, for Liang Jiayi, admiration for Young Master Xue's character and reputation was all she held, having met him only a few times.
Now that she saw him being so affectionate with Yang Fei, she was completely baffled.
But Yang Fei felt somewhat awkward.
Two grown men embracing upon meeting as though they were long-lost friends.
This Brother Mingtai was perhaps too enthusiastic and unrestrained.
Moreover, Yang Fei could sense Xue Mingtai's excitement.
Such a composed and serene person was now shaking ever so slightly.
He seemed to be forcefully suppressing some surging emotion in his heart.
"Damn, could it be that this guy swings that way? Do I have charm that transcends gender?"
A preposterous thought crossed Yang Fei's mind.
He felt goosebumps all over his body and hastily broke free from Xue Mingtai's embrace.
"That's right, Brother Mingtai and I hit it off at first sight, from now on we are friends."
In the blink of an eye, Xue Mingtai had regained his graceful composure.
He looked deeply at Yang Fei and said, "I've finally met you. In the future, you can come to me with anything you need."
Yang Fei shivered all over and forced out a dry laugh.
"Certainly, certainly, Brother Mingtai is too kind."
Xue Mingtai looked deeply at Yang Fei once more, then turned and walked toward a group of elite offspring.
This scene was witnessed only by Sister Ying, Sister Xue, Liang Jiayi, and two of the elite offspring.
The rest of the people didn't notice it.
A group of people was standing at the entrance of Jingshui Villa, chatting and laughing merrily, among them was Fang Tang.
Sister Ying glanced at Yang Fei, then at Fang Tang in the distance.
A feeling of indescribable suspicion grew in her heart.
Given Fang Tang's cautious and meticulous nature, if he had someone investigate Yang Fei's background, he would definitely not make a mistake.
If he said Yang Fei was an odd-job man at a hotel, it surely couldn't be false.
But then, how to explain that Range Rover worth over two million?
And now, Xue Mingtai's enthusiastic hug, as well as the warmth and even respect he showed toward Yang Fei, what was that all about?
The more Sister Ying thought about it, the more something felt off.
This hotel odd-job man truly was inscrutable.
In the distance, Xue Mingtai was shaking hands with everyone, Fang Tang was bowing and scraping, deliberately flattering Xue Mingtai.
Sister Ying couldn't help but smile ironically.
If Fang Tang knew that Xue Mingtai, whom he was desperately trying to ingratiate himself with, treated Yang Fei, the hotel odd-job man, with such warmth, I wonder what he would think?
As soon as Xue Mingtai left, Yang Fei immediately took out a tissue and frantically wiped his neck, arms, and face as if he was afraid of catching a plague.
Liang Jiayi found this amusing as she watched and gracefully walked over.
She took Yang Fei's tissue and said with a smile, "What's wrong, got lice?"
Yang Fei scowled and muttered as he watched Xue Mingtai's retreating figure.
"Damn it, that guy has some weird tastes, getting all touchy-feely the moment we meet."
Liang Jiayi playfully punched him, admonishing, "What are you talking about, Young Master Xue is a revered figure in our circle."
"It's okay to offend others, but never ever offend him."
Yang Fei rolled his eyes at Liang Jiayi, "Don't worry, I won't offend him. As for someone whose gender is so ambiguous, I'd rather stay far away."
"Great, after his hug just now, I feel like I've lost another two kilos of purity."
Liang Jiayi gave Yang Fei a look and couldn't help but giggle.
Xue Mingtai walked into the crowd and greeted everyone.
The moment he appeared, he nearly became the focal point of everyone's attention.
He was like a phoenix descended from the Nine Heavens to The Human Realm, supremely dignified and elegant, yet not distancing himself from others.
Although there were many people, each guest felt his goodwill and greeting; he did not neglect a single person.
Strangely, since hugging Yang Fei, Xue Mingtai never spoke to him again, nor did he even glance in his direction.
This peculiar scene made Sister Ying, who had been watching dispassionately from the sidelines, all the more puzzled.
Just as this group was about to enter the manor, a long convoy of luxury cars approached the manor's gate not far away.
An extended black Rolls-Royce at the front of the line slowly came to a halt.
Two big men in suits with earpieces quickly got out of the car.
One swiftly took up a an advantageous defensive position while the other respectfully shielded the car roof with his hand and opened the car door.
A pale leg stepped out of the car.
The foot was adorned in a rose-colored high heel with a lifelike platinum butterfly inlay, and in the center of the butterfly's wings was a diamond of at least three carats.
Just that one leg was dazzlingly beautiful.
