CHAPTER 1099: CHAPTER 1099: FAITH IN THE MILITARY GOD

"I’ve already given him a good talking-to, and he’s come to a deep understanding of his mistakes, establishing the right values in life. Don’t worry, this troublemaker won’t stir up any trouble anymore."

"Ha!"

Hearing Ye Chenfeng’s explanation, Chu Qingxue almost burst into laughter.

Chu Qingxue’s smile deepened at the corners of her lips: "Once again, I have to thank you tonight. If it weren’t for you, the loss would have been significant."

"It was a piece of cake, don’t worry about it."

"By the way, Chenfeng, I have an idea." Suddenly, Chu Qingxue spoke up.

Ye Chenfeng looked at her puzzled and asked, "What idea?"

"I’ve decided that once Chu Corporation has firmly established itself in Yanjing, I’ll hand over the position of CEO to you." Chu Qingxue said with utmost seriousness.

Ye Chenfeng looked shocked: "What kind of idea is that? I’m terrified of managing a company and all that, how’s that any different from being both a dad and a mom?"

"After all, the Chu Corporation has come this far mainly because of your efforts. Without you, we wouldn’t be here today." Chu Qingxue said with a smile.

"What are you talking about? You’ve always been the one managing the company, it’s got nothing to do with me. I barely have any part in it." Ye Chenfeng said helplessly.

"C’mon, Chenfeng, haven’t you noticed? You’ve resolved the biggest obstacles one by one. I’ve just been following the standard procedure. You could replace me with anyone, and it would be the same. That’s why your role is the most critical." Chu Qingxue explained to Ye Chenfeng.

Ye Chenfeng quickly changed the subject: "Alright, let’s not bring this up again. You know I’m not interested in this anyway. I still prefer to eat your food, drink your drinks, and live in your place. Counting money at home is much more comfortable."

The next day.

Chu Corporation completely rid itself of Sikong Zhairiyue’s shadow, and it was just short of holding a celebration for the whole company.

"Phew!"

Meanwhile, at the villa, Ye Chenfeng was doing some simple exercises for his morning workout.

Finally, Ye Chenfeng prepared to take a jog along the shore.

He was a bit excited today, and the reason was simple—the news from the Military God gave him hope.

...

On the road leading to the villa by the river, a luxury car slowly arrived.

The people inside were none other than Ji Xiaofeng and Ding Wenjun.

"This villa was indeed sold a long time ago. Although there’s no real name, the account is under the surname Ye. Considering the situation we encountered that night, it’s undoubtedly Ye Chenfeng." Ding Wenjun analyzed calmly.

Ji Xiaofeng, however, was skeptical and shook his head, saying: "I still think it’s unlikely. I’ve used every possible connection to investigate his identity and background. It’s too ordinary; there’s no way he knows a master of that level, let alone lives in such an expensive villa area."

Ding Wenjun gave Ji Xiaofeng a glance and said, "Then how do you explain the incident at the art exhibition the day before yesterday?"

"After the incident, I analyzed it very carefully. The whole art exhibition was filled with oddities. First, there was Tony’s appearance, then his teacher showed up, but it was all just a prelude for the final setup for Ye Chenfeng.

Think about it, if he really was that kind of person, why did he leave in such a hurry after Tony’s teacher recognized him, instead of staying to show off?"

Ji Xiaofeng’s analysis caused Ding Wenjun to hesitate for a moment.

Seeing this, Ji Xiaofeng continued: "Clearly, they put on a show for us to see. Leaving suddenly at the final moment was truly brilliant, leaving us with a huge mystery."

Ding Wenjun thought for a while and then nodded: "It seems to be like that, but Tony’s teacher definitely couldn’t have been fake."

Ji Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Haven’t you heard the saying, ’Money makes the world go round’? This guy has been fooling the old man all along, and I suspect he’s gotten quite a bit of money from him. Spending some to put on such a play is quite normal."

"Could it really be like that?" Ding Wenjun was genuinely hesitant.

"Hehe, honey, if that’s the case, why don’t we sneak up to that villa and see for ourselves? If he’s living there, it means everything is true. If not, I won’t be able to resist giving him a piece of my mind." Ji Xiaofeng said.

"Alright!"

Soon, the two were very close to the villa.

After some discussion, they decided to abandon the car and approach on foot.

Ten minutes later, they were already around the villa area.

"It seems like there’s really no one living in this villa, isn’t there?" After observing for a while, Ji Xiaofeng couldn’t help but say.

Ding Wenjun shook his head and said: "No, there are signs that someone has lived here before. The villa has definitely been sold."

"Then why is there no one?" Ji Xiaofeng was very puzzled.

"Let’s observe a bit longer and get closer."

"Okay, but be careful not to be discovered by security." Ji Xiaofeng said.

...

"Hmm? Why is there a car here?"

Returning from his run, Ye Chenfeng suddenly saw a car parked in a secluded spot, and his eyes lit up.

Isn’t this Ji Xiaofeng and Ding Wenjun’s car?

Ye Chenfeng had seen Ji Xiaofeng’s car once before and had memorized not just the model but also the license plate number.

"What are they doing here?" Ye Chenfeng felt a bit suspicious but soon had an idea pop into his mind, seemingly guessing their motives.

"Annoying!"

Ye Chenfeng pursed his lips and instead of heading to the villa, went in the opposite direction. However, after a short while, he returned again.

From his angle, he could just make out the sneaky Ji Xiaofeng and Ding Wenjun not far ahead...

Not long after, two young people, a man and a woman, walked into the villa side by side. They had keys and opened the villa with practiced ease.

"Look, the owners are back." From Ji Xiaofeng and Ding Wenjun’s angle, they could just see the panoramic view of the inside of the villa.

Ji Xiaofeng couldn’t help but laugh out loud: "Haha, honey, I told you, there’s no way this villa could be his. If it was his, I’d take his surname."

"Alright!" Ding Wenjun pursed her lips, a hint of disappointment showing in her eyes.

"Now we can return in peace. My guess was completely correct."

Ji Xiaofeng couldn’t have been more excited and couldn’t help but feel on top of the world, thinking about his analysis.

Watching the backs of Ji Xiaofeng and Ding Wenjun as they left, Ye Chenfeng chuckled.

At noon, Ye Chenfeng received news from Heavenly Eye that the Ironblood Club had news, and he had successfully defeated the hacker.

"Hmm? Ji Qiushui has been to the Ironblood Club?" Ye Chenfeng couldn’t help but be surprised when he heard this clue.

He had intended to have no further entanglements with Ji Qiushui, but now it seemed unlikely, so he could only brace himself for it.

When he contacted Ji Qiushui, his attitude was cool and indifferent, yet he still agreed to meet with Ye Chenfeng.
