"Pfft..."

Yan Feishuang just drank a mouthful of water, and suddenly spat it out. A business worth a million, and Ye Tianfan only invested a hundred and thirty-seven yuan? Isn't this just obvious that he has no money?

"A real empty-handed white wolf*!" Yan Feishuang raised an eyebrow at Ye Tianfan, but Ye Tianfan had already gotten up and came to her side, wrapping her in his arms and whispering, "I've already caught a white wolf once empty-handed, so what if I do it again?"

Hearing this, Yan Feishuang's pretty face blushed immediately, recalling that enchanting night, she then playfully said, "Fine, I'll invest to open the bar, and I'll be the boss..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Tianfan's eyebrows furrowed, and he said, "No, I'll be the boss, you're just a shareholder."

Just a shareholder?

A business worth a million, Ye Tianfan only invests a little over a hundred, and he still wants to be the boss?

However, at this moment, Yan Feishuang wasn't angry, just gave Ye Tianfan a charming glance and whispered, "You can be the boss, then I'll be the lady boss."

"Alright! It's settled then!" Ye Tianfan agreed quickly and straightforwardly to Yan Feishuang's proposal, then turned to leave.

"Where are you going?"

Ye Tianfan turned back casually and said, "I promised Lin Xiaofeng to check out the Huang Family, can't go back on my word, right?"

"I'll go with you!" Yan Feishuang quickly got up as well. Since she had already made up her mind to stay by Ye Tianfan's side, she needed to keep a closer watch. Although Ye Tianfan had an engagement with Qin Ruomeng which she couldn't interfere with, Huang Xiaorou and Long Yuqing were different; Yan Feishuang didn't want a few women unexpectedly sharing Ye Tianfan with her.

"You have other things to do!" Ye Tianfan suddenly showed a mischievous smile, pulling a small note from his pocket and handing it to Yan Feishuang, he said, "Here's the location for the bar, talk to the landlord and get the place rented as soon as possible."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Tianfan dashed out of the restaurant before Yan Feishuang could react.

Yan Feishuang looked at the little note in her hand, feeling both annoyed and angry, Ye Tianfan was totally acting like a hands-off shopkeeper! Investing her own money, renting the place herself, and he just sat back and enjoyed the fruits, truly unfair!

Though Yan Feishuang was angry, she had no choice, wanting to chase after Ye Tianfan but couldn't match his speed. She could only sigh in her heart—who made her fall for this infuriating man!

Soon, Ye Tianfan arrived at the Huang Family villa, and before he even stepped inside, he sensed a strong Ancient Martial Arts aura spreading in the courtyard. He couldn't help but furrow his brows, quickly stopping his steps, hiding his aura, and attentively watching.

The huge Huang Family villa had just a handful of bodyguards in the yard, and at the second-floor window of the villa, a few vague figures could be seen pacing back and forth, one being Huang Xiaorou!

She's not sick!

Ye Tianfan's heart sank!

If Huang Xiaorou wasn't sick, why didn't she attend Fang Zaitian's charity ball?

Ye Tianfan was perplexed, moved swiftly into the Huang Family villa, and using the skills of a gecko climbing walls, he stealthily crept to the window.

He heard Huang Xiaorou's angry voice from inside: "You're detaining me! Uncle, please let me out!"

"Nonsense! It's a critical time in Jiangzhou, all Huang Family's activities are on hold, and business has been reined in. I forbid you from having any contact with Ye Tianfan! During this period, stay at home obediently!"

The man's voice was loud and authoritative, although it was Huang Xiaorou's uncle speaking, his tone was as imposing as her father's, allowing no resistance.

The Ancient Martial Arts aura emanating from the Huang Family villa was also coming from Huang Xiaorou's uncle! It seemed the Huang Family harbored a hidden expert from the Ancient Martial Realm!

Huang Xiaorou spoke aggrievedly, "No! Why can't I go out! Why can't I contact Ye Tianfan!"

"Smack!" A crisp slap echoed, and Ye Tianfan was slightly stunned, Huang Xiaorou's uncle actually slapped her, then angrily said, "The business war between the Qin Family and the Long Family has already started! Our Huang Family must consolidate funds and watch the situation unfold! I won't allow anyone from the Huang Family to participate in this commercial battle! Wait till they both suffer heavy losses, that's when it's our turn to make a move! We can reap the benefits then! This is the moment for our Huang Family to rise! At such a crucial time, I won't have you creating troubles!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of a heavy door slam came, and Huang Xiaorou's uncle left angrily, leaving Huang Xiaorou alone in the room, softly crying.

Ye Tianfan's heart was in turmoil as well, never expecting the business war between the Qin Family and the Long Family to affect so many people. Once it starts, the whole business community in Jiangzhou City might be in upheaval!

Looking at the crying Huang Xiaorou sitting on the bed, Ye Tianfan merely furrowed his brows, but didn't go inside. Entrusted by Lin Xiaofeng, Ye Tianfan came just to check on Huang Xiaorou's condition, knowing she was alright relieved him, and he preferred not to get involved in the commercial battle. On this land of China, it's always been survival of the fittest, so Ye Tianfan couldn't be bothered with the Qin Family, Long Family, or Huang Family!

However, after leaving the Huang Family, Ye Tianfan still headed to the Qin Group Building, not because of the business war between the Qin and Long Families, but purely for Qin Ruomeng!

Due to Yan Feishuang, Qin Ruomeng must have misunderstood him, if she really caused a scene, Ye Tianfan wouldn't mind, at worst he'd just have to appease her. But Qin Ruomeng's current cold attitude, not crying nor making a fuss, really left Ye Tianfan uneasy, regardless there was an engagement between them, if anything happened to her, Ye Tianfan wouldn't know how to explain!

Opening the door to Qin Ruomeng's office, Ye Tianfan couldn't help but furrow his brows, seeing her desk piled with documents, obscuring her petite figure completely. Qin Ruomeng didn't notice Ye Tianfan entering, only speaking coldly, "Who? Doesn't know to knock before entering my office?"

"It's me." Ye Tianfan smiled, walking slowly to stand in front of Qin Ruomeng, expecting her to be surprised to hear his voice, considering it was his first time visiting her office.

Yet, Qin Ruomeng didn't even lift her head, just continued looking at the documents in her hands, coldly saying, "I don't have time to entertain you!"
