"..."

"That's amazing." After a brief silence, Zhang Huimin said sincerely.

Ye Huan was surprised: "Sister Zhang, don't you think I'm bragging? America is the only superpower besides Huaxia, and their president holds a very high position."

"I don't think so, because I believe you."

Such a brief sentence moved Ye Huan deeply.

Then he continued:

"Sister Zhang, knowing too much isn't good, I can't tell you too much."

"But there's one thing I can tell you."

"The most powerful force in the West isn't made up of various nations; it's the Twelve Divine Halls! The masters of the Twelve Divine Halls secretly govern the operations of Western countries. Every national leader has to make tributes to the major Divine Halls every year before and after taking office!"

"And my power is second only to theirs. The reason it's second is that I have no interest in developing my own power."

"Otherwise, the Western countries would have to make an additional tribute to me each year."

If someone else had said these mind-boggling words, Zhang Huimin would have thought they were crazy.

But Ye Huan was different. She unconsciously believed him, and her expression showed shock.

Then she felt even more inferior.

At this moment…

"I have another identity. Want to know?" Ye Huan's lips curled into a meaningful smile as he spoke.

Having received so many shocks, what's one more?

Zhang Huimin nodded.

The next second, her face turned red.

"I'm also your man."

This identity, self-proclaimed by Ye Huan, made Zhang Huimin feel as sweet as if she'd tasted honey!

But she still sighed softly and said, "Ye, I feel like I'm not worthy of you…"

"You're knowledgeable and sensible."

"Beautiful and kind-hearted, intelligent and understanding."

"You have beauty, and you have talent."

"How could someone like you not be worthy of me?"

"As for my status… you don't need to worry at all. The moment we confirmed our relationship, your level of nobility already surpassed 99.9999% of women."

"If you keep saying things like 'I'm not worthy', I'm going to get angry."

Ye Huan said these words, almost like a confession, with a serious expression.

"Am I really that good? I didn't know!" Zhang Huimin was so flattered her heart melted, feeling incredibly sweet inside.

Ye Huan suddenly turned Zhang Huimin to face him, looked into her eyes earnestly, and nodded: "You have every quality of a good woman, all perfectly embodied in you."

"I..." Zhang Huimin's cheeks were burning, and she was too shy to meet Ye Huan's gaze.

She never thought she could be that great in Ye Huan's heart.

"Come with me to Capital City," Ye Huan said this time with a commanding tone.

Zhang Huimin was a little stunned, then softly replied with an "Okay," agreeing to it.

Ye Huan was delighted internally, but his expression remained serious: "Let me 'warn' you one last time, don't say things like 'not worthy' anymore, understand? You are the woman I, Ye Huan, have chosen. My status isn't ordinary, and you should be as proud as a swan, never as inferior as an ugly duckling."

Zhang Huimin remained shy, nodded her head after a gentle "um."

Ye Huan's lips curled, quite satisfied.

And then…

He lifted Zhang Huimin's chin, pressed his lips to hers with a "smooch."

Zhang Huimin's face was so red that it looked like it could bleed, but she didn't stop Ye Huan. After all, she had agreed to privately kiss him at the restaurant.

Plus, having not seen Ye Huan for so long, she missed him dearly!

Zhang Huimin began to respond.

But just at the crucial last moment…

The office door opened with a "click."

Tang Yao, after finishing a phone call, returned to the office and saw this scene. Her face turned completely red, and she lightly covered her mouth: "You... you two..."

Too embarrassed to continue, she shielded her face with her hands in shame and annoyance, and dashed out of the office.

She never expected to see such a scene after returning to the office!

"..."

Inside the office.

Zhang Huimin came back to her senses and pushed Ye Huan away.

She wished she could find a hole to crawl into!

"See what you've done! Why did you do that? We're still in the office!"

"Now look, Tang Yao saw us! How am I ever going to face her again?"

Zhang Huimin glared at Ye Huan in embarrassment and anger.

"Sister Zhang, how can you say that? You kissed me quite passionately just now," Ye Huan said with a playful smile.

Zhang Huimin had no words to counter, feeling deeply embarrassed. She had indeed gotten a bit too forward just now.

Ye Huan lightly embraced her and cheekily said, "Sister Zhang, no one troublesome will come now, so shall we continue...?"

"You wish! I don't want to!"

Zhang Huimin pushed Ye Huan away again, her face flushed as she began to pack her things.

Ye Huan chuckled, suppressing his excitement, and began to help.

...

"What? Your dad doesn't even know a Huang Family in Capital City?"

On the BMW speeding along National Highway G-01 heading toward Capital City, Ye Huan asked in surprise.

"That's right, my dad said he's never even heard of the Huang Family in Capital City, let alone having any enmity with them." In the backseat, Tang Yao was also quite puzzled.

"What about your mom?"

"My mom's a housewife. If my dad doesn't know, she definitely wouldn't know."

Ye Huan raised an eyebrow, could it be that his assumption was wrong?

He shook his head and stopped overthinking it, saying, "Then I might have guessed wrong. But you can rest assured for now, there won't be any more assassins bothering you or your parents. I've also contacted Zhu Dachang, the Captain of the Celestial City Criminal Police, who agreed to send a special police team to secretly protect them."

"Thank you," Tang Yao said gratefully.

"By the way, where do you plan to stay when you get to Capital City?"

"How about staying at my place? I bought a big house, the more people, the merrier, and less likely to feel haunted."

Ye Huan casually suggested, secretly observing Zhang Huimin's expression in the passenger seat.

He hoped that Zhang Huimin would move into Tingxiang Pavilion.

As his marriage with Liu Tianyun was already set, it might be better for them to start interacting sooner.

Adding a "them" in his words was also to reduce Zhang Huimin's resistance, as living together with Tang Yao at Tingxiang Pavilion would mean she had a companion.

"Isn't that inappropriate?" Zhang Huimin's face was tinged with a red hue.

Ye Huan's home was Liu Tianyun's home, after all.

She remembered how Liu Tianyun had invited her over many times.

But… how could she feel okay about it?

"There's nothing inappropriate about it. The house is big with many rooms, ample space for you both," Ye Huan said.

"It's not about the rooms, it's..."

Zhang Huimin fiddled with the corner of her clothes: "I'm embarrassed to live... in the same house as President Liu."

"What's there to be embarrassed about? You'll have to get along sooner or later, so why not sooner rather than later?" Ye Huan saw that Zhang Huimin was not strongly opposing and pressed on.

"But..."

"Ye Huan, what do you mean?" Before Zhang Huimin could speak again, Tang Yao asked with a frown, "Are you really planning to have multiple women at the same time and make Sister Zhang a concubine?"

"I'm willing."

Zhang Huimin knew this question would embarrass Ye Huan, and hurriedly spoke up to alleviate the awkwardness, her face flushing as she agreed: "Ye, you're right, it's better to get along sooner than later. I want to move into Tingxiang Pavilion."

"Sister Zhang, you..." Tang Yao gritted her teeth.

But since the main person involved agreed, what else could she say?

It's just… she couldn't accept it.

She glared at a certain playboy and said, "Until you've sorted out your relationships with the other women, I'm going to stay with Sister Zhang. I won't let you touch her."

Ye Huan couldn't help but get a few sweat lines on his face, but he felt relieved inside.

As long as Zhang Huimin agreed to move into Tingxiang Pavilion, nothing else mattered!
