CHAPTER 63: CHAPTER 63 LOVE IT OR NOT

"Mr. Yang, the rough outline of the ribbon-cutting process is as follows. Did you remember it?"

At the entrance of the 50th-floor revolving restaurant, Guo Can looked at Ye Fei with an expression of utmost respect.

"Yes, I remembered it!" Ye Fei nodded mildly and smiled.

"Good, as long as you remembered! Would you like me to accompany you downstairs?" Guo Can stepped aside and asked.

But Ye Fei shook his head and said, "No need, you can go down first. I have some matters to attend to."

Some matters?

Guo Can instantly felt curious but didn’t dare to ask further. He could only nod and say, "Alright then! Mr. Ye, please take care!"

With that, Guo Can stepped into the elevator.

Watching Guo Can leave, Ye Fei stood there with his hands behind his back and smiled faintly. "Come out!"

From the rooftop, Li Xu hesitantly stepped forward with a face full of fear.

"Mr. Ye, earlier I..."

"I know it wasn’t your fault..." Ye Fei smiled.

Li Xu sighed in relief upon hearing this.

Earlier, after slapping Shi Tian on the rooftop, he hurried to follow Ye Fei, wanting to explain himself to avoid any misunderstandings Ye Fei might have about him or the Li Family.

Seeing Ye Fei not holding a grudge, the heavy burden in his heart was finally lifted.

But in the next moment, Li Xu couldn’t help but smile wryly once more.

Because Ye Fei had calmly remarked, "Because I know you wouldn’t dare."

"Yes, yes, Mr. Ye, you see clearly, I certainly wouldn’t dare!" Li Xu nodded enthusiastically.

If someone else had spoken to Li Xu this way, he likely would have slapped them to show whether he dared or not.

But who was standing before him now?

Ye Fei! Mr. Ye!

Whether it was his identity as the overlord commanding the big players of the thirteen cities in Su Province or as the Innate Martial King, Li Xu couldn’t afford to cross him.

Thus, Li Xu could only nod submissively like a servant.

After some time, Ye Fei suddenly smiled and said, "What did your cousin say when she left Lingshan?"

What did she say?

Upon hearing this, the stone just dropping from Li Xu’s heart instantly shot back up to his throat.

He didn’t dare repeat Su Mai’s words and could only stammer, "She... she didn’t say anything..."

"Is that so?" Ye Fei gave Li Xu a faint glance.

Thump!

Li Xu’s legs buckled instantly as he knelt on the ground, crying bitterly. "Mr. Ye, I... I didn’t have the nerve to tell you! My cousin... she never intended to fulfill the promise she made to you, and... and..."

"And plans to oppose me, doesn’t she? Haha, it seems I’ll need to visit the Su Family one day!" Ye Fei sneered coldly.

Li Xu shuddered all over, not daring to defend Su Mai in the slightest.

Quickly, under Ye Fei’s oppressive presence, Li Xu apologized repeatedly before finally leaving.

Ye Fei, on the other hand, was preparing to head downstairs for the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

What he didn’t expect was that just as he reached the elevator, Wu Xia came walking toward him.

"Ye Fei! What did Li Xu want with you just now?" Wu Xia immediately confronted him directly.

Back when Li Xu gave Shi Tian a sudden slap on the rooftop, Wu Xia had already felt something was amiss. So, when Li Xu left, she had stealthily followed him.

What she hadn’t anticipated was that Li Xu would come to meet Ye Fei.

Although she hadn’t dared to get close enough to overhear their conversation, the fact that someone like Li Xu, a young heir of the Binjiang Li Family, would seek out Ye Fei was already extremely suspicious.

Thus, when she saw Ye Fei now, she naturally had to question him.

However, Ye Fei showed no intention of entertaining Wu Xia and merely smiled faintly, saying, "What does it have to do with you?"

"So you refuse to answer, huh? Hmph! Don’t think I haven’t figured it out. Li Xu and you clearly already know each other. As unbelievable as it sounds, Li Xu slapping Shi Tian was definitely because of you!"

"And the screening process to enter the Purple Mist Building is extremely strict. Guo Can has been in the revolving restaurant all day and hasn’t left; how did you even get in?"

"Earlier, I even saw Chen Qian’s father. He looked for you before, and logically speaking, you should have stayed away from Chen Qian ever since. But when you were at the rooftop, you weren’t avoiding Chen Qian at all."

"And previously, the Black Tiger Hall came to you. What exactly were they looking for? What have you done?"

"Everything about this is far too strange, leaving me no choice but to wonder—Ye Fei, who exactly are you?" Wu Xia asked, her gaze full of suspicion.

"You’ve been paying attention," Ye Fei remarked with surprise and a smile.

Wu Xia coldly snorted and said, "That’s only because Aunt Su asked my mother to keep an eye on you; otherwise, do you think you’re worth my attention? Now, tell me—who exactly are you?"

"Who am I? Heh, naturally, I am Ye Fei!"

"However, I am not the Ye Fei you know, you understand, or you think you know!" Ye Fei said indifferently.

"What do you mean?" Wu Xia demanded angrily.

"Nothing much. It’s just that some things, even if I told you, you wouldn’t believe. So why waste my breath?" Ye Fei said as he turned to leave.

But Wu Xia grabbed his arm firmly and said coldly, "How do you know I won’t believe you unless you tell me? Here’s your chance—speak!"

Looking at the determination in Wu Xia’s eyes, Ye Fei shook his head and smiled. "Are you sure?"

"Speak!"

"Alright! Since you insist, I’ll tell you."

Ye Fei slowly walked toward the windows, gazing at Yuntai City’s stunning landscape, and smiled. "I am none other than the so-called Mr. Ye you all talk about!"

"This is my company. Why wouldn’t I be allowed inside?"

"Li Xu fears me because he knows my identity!"

"Chen Xing reveres me as if I’m a Ghost God. Why should I avoid his daughter?"

"The Hall Master Bai Que of Black Tiger Hall sought me out because I crippled his son. In the end, Bai Que himself fell by my hand in the North Suburb."

"I am the giant of Su Province; the thirteen city bosses bow before me..."

With each sentence Ye Fei uttered, he took a step forward. In response, Wu Xia took a step back. By the time Ye Fei finished, Wu Xia found herself pressed against the wall, drenched in cold sweat.

"Now, do you know who I am?"

Ye Fei smiled faintly, turned, and walked away.

After a long while, Wu Xia finally snapped out of it and shouted angrily, "Ye Fei, do you think I’ll believe a story like that? You’re Mr. Ye? That’s impossible!"

"Believe it or not!"

Ye Fei replied without even turning around.

"You..."

Wu Xia was so furious that she stomped her foot but quickly rushed to follow him.

The two stepped into the elevator, one leading and one following, and arrived at the lobby.

Shi Tian and the others had already gathered downstairs.

Although they were baffled by Li Xu’s abrupt slap to Shi Tian earlier, they hadn’t left. After all, they were here to witness the legendary Mr. Ye in the flesh.

When Wu Xia and Ye Fei stepped out of the elevator one after the other, Han Fenfen immediately approached out of curiosity and asked, "Wu Xia, where did you go?"

"Where? I went to visit Mr. Ye!" Wu Xia sneered and glanced toward Ye Fei.

"Mr. Ye? What Mr. Ye?" Han Fenfen asked, her face full of confusion.

Wu Xia pointed at Ye Fei and said sarcastically, "This one—he claims to be the omnipotent Mr. Ye, none other than Ye Fei standing right before us!"
