Hearing footsteps approaching from outside, the spirits of everyone in the private room were immediately lifted. They turned their gazes toward the door, all wanting to know which formidable personage had merited an invitation from both Fang Derong and Elder Zhao.

As the footsteps neared, a group of several people walked in slowly from outside the room. When the crowd caught sight of them, they were all taken aback.

The group that entered was almost identical to the one that had left earlier, except now there was an additional young man among them.

This young man was in the middle, accompanied on either side by Fang Derong and Elder Zhao, and behind them followed Fang Qingxue and the others.

"Who is that young man?"

In the private room, everyone's eyes were filled with shock and suspicion. They had assumed that anyone who could get two heavyweights like them to jointly send an invitation must be a well-known figure in Jiangnan Province, but they had never seen this young man before.

Moreover, the young man was wearing a pair of jeans that had faded from washing, and his T-shirt was tattered, looking ragged. If they had run into him on the street, they would have thought he was a construction worker or a beggar.

The guests were all discussing in low voices, but they dared not show the slightest disrespect towards the young man. No matter how shabby his attire, the mere presence of Fang Derong and Elder Zhao at his side was a testament to his extraordinary status.

"Mr. Fang, have you felt unwell recently?"

Ye Feng was frowning at the moment; on the way here, his eyes had been observing Fang Derong closely. He had a vague feeling that something was amiss and finally decided to ask.

Fang Derong was taken aback before smiling and saying, "Young friend, I know your medical skill is remarkable, but this old body of mine is pretty robust, and I have a personal physician who checks on me regularly—there's no major problem!"

Fang Derong thought Ye Feng was trying to show off his medical skill in his presence, so he didn't take it too seriously.

After hearing this, Ye Feng's gaze flickered slightly before he said,

"Within a week, if you feel any discomfort, you can come to me. Also, it's best to have truly trustworthy people manage your diet!"

Confused by Ye Feng's vague remarks, Fang Derong could only agree, "Rest assured, young friend. If I ever encounter any difficult problems, I will seek your help. I'll be troubling you then!"

At the moment, Fang Derong was just being polite. He always felt strong and healthy, had regular sleeping habits, and had no bad addictions. According to his doctor, he should be in good health for at least another ten years!

Ye Feng could tell what Fang Derong meant and simply nodded without saying anything more.

"Alright, young friend! Please feel free to sit wherever you like, and if you want something to drink, just ask the waiter. I'm going to mingle with the guests along with Qingxue now!"

Fang Derong then smiled at Ye Feng, nodded, and started to greet the other guests in the private room with Fang Qingxue.

Ye Feng's brow furrowed as he watched Fang Derong's departing figure. He noticed a few faint black lines on Fang Derong's forehead, fine like threads of a needle, which closely resembled a symptom he was familiar with.

"Kid, does Old Fang have some health issues?" Elder Zhao, who had witnessed Ye Feng's exceptional abilities, had been watching Ye Feng's expression closely. It was only now that he finally asked.

Ye Feng shook his head and said to Elder Zhao, "I cannot yet be sure. It's just a suspicion, and it will take some time to confirm."

Upon hearing this, Elder Zhao wanted to ask more, but at this moment, many of the other guests in the private room came over with drinks in hand, clearly intending to toast to Elder Zhao.

"Kid, I'll have to excuse myself for a bit!"

Elder Zhao gave Ye Feng an apologetic smile before turning to engage in conversation with the guests.

It wasn't just him; even Zhao Yuankui and his son were now surrounded by many guests, chatting animatedly.

Ye Feng saw that there were also some guests approaching him with glasses of red wine, apparently wanting to interact and probe into his background.

However, he had no interest in wasting words with these people. He simply found a corner, opened a bottle of beer, and started drinking.

"Brother-in-law, what are you hiding here for?"

No sooner had Ye Feng taken a couple of sips than Red Rose popped up out of nowhere, snatched his beer, took a swig, and then asked with a mischievous grin.

"Why aren't you talking to those people and instead ran here?" Ye Feng, who had become familiar with Red Rose's carefree nature, asked with a resigned smile.

Upon hearing this, Red Rose shrugged her cute nose and huffed, "Those people are too cowardly, they didn't even open their mouths to speak before I glared at them and scared them off!"

Hearing this, Ye Feng was at a loss for words. But he thought about it, it made sense; most of the people here were respectable businessmen who wouldn't dare to mess with Red Rose, the boss lady.

At that moment, Red Rose took another sip of her drink, her beautiful eyes spinning around before she mischievously smiled at Ye Feng and said:

"Brother-in-law, you..."

"You're not wearing underwear again today!"

However, before Red Rose could finish her sentence, Ye Feng interrupted.

Pfft!

Red Rose hadn't swallowed her sip of wine when she heard this, and she spat it out. She then stared at Ye Feng with wide eyes, her pretty face blushing:

"You... did you see something again?"

Ye Feng shrugged his shoulders and said with a playful smile, "I didn't see anything!"

"Really?" Red Rose was somewhat incredulous.

"Of course…" Ye Feng looked at Red Rose, a lewd smile curling up at the corner of his mouth:

"Not!"

"You…" Fuming, Red Rose swung her hand out and aimed a punch right at Ye Feng's crotch:

"Go die!"

Red Rose's hand moved like lightning, striking with incredible speed and completely without warning!

Ye Feng jumped in fright and immediately broke out in a cold sweat as Red Rose's fist was about to hit his private area, when he quickly grabbed her hand:

"Damn, you're seriously going for it!"

Ye Feng's face was full of disbelief; this woman was so fierce, swinging at him without a second thought!

"What are you two doing!!!"

Just then, a sharp reprimand rang out; it was Bai Furong walking over.

Bai Furong's face was as cold as ice, and her eyes nearly shot fire when she saw Red Rose's hand being held by Ye Feng.

Seeing Bai Furong approaching, both of them trembled and hastily let go.

"Ahem… I mean, it's not what you think!" Ye Feng was slightly embarrassed, because his sister-in-law's hand had just been touching there, and it was really damn hard to explain.

"Bai Furong, brother-in-law is so shameless! He said we were playing 'eagle catches chicks' and then grabbed my hand, aren't you going to do anything about it?" Red Rose quickly played the aggrieved victim to Bai Furong.

Eagle catches chicks?

You… you damn…

Ye Feng was completely dumbfounded; he never expected Red Rose to set him up like this. This woman had no shame!

This damn thing, that's an eagle, not a chick!!!
