Fang Yunshu’s waist tightened; Ye Xiaofei actually hugged her waist.

Fang Yunshu didn’t struggle and just let Ye Xiaofei hug her.

She had to admit that in the current situation, only Ye Xiaofei could give her a sense of security. Only Ye Xiaofei really wanted to protect her.

Wang Yuqiang had Ye Xiaofei1 s gaze sweep over him, and he involuntarily took a step back. However, Wang Yuqiang immediately felt that something was wrong. The Wang Family was no longer the Wang Family of the past, and he, Wang Yuqiang, was no longer the Wang Yuqiang of the past.

Raising his chin, Wang Yuqiang straightened his chest and said, “Ye Xiaofei, you really think too highly of yourself. Don’t think that just because you’ve hooked up with Meng Zhijing, you’re qualified to challenge the Wang Family.”

At that point, Wang Yuqiang’s eyes suddenly lit up, and his voice suddenly raised an octave, “Fang Yunshu, that kid is living off others. That kind of person is simply trash. What right does he have to be worthy of you?”

Seeing Fang Yunshu’s calm expression, Wang Yuqiang said loudly, “Listen, 1 witnessed this with my own eyes. That woman, who used to be a subordinate of our Wang Family, is involved with gangs.”

Fang Qianlong was even more furious. “Fang Yunshu, hurry up and get over here. Yuqiang is already very magnanimous to be able to let bygones be bygones. That kid can’t even be compared to Yuqiang.”

Fang Yunshu suddenly sighed and said, “I’ve always tried my best to gain the recognition of my family. I’ve always wanted to work hard to become a member of this family, but you’ve always treated me as a tool. If I do well, it s only natural. If I don’t do well, it s my fault as a tool. I couldn’t make the cooperation with Nox Company successful, and now you’re interested in using my body.

Hah…”

Fang Qianlong’s old face blushed slightly, but it was only for a moment. He immediately said in a deep voice, “Fang Yunshu, I’m not asking you to casually accompany anyone. You’re officially marrying into the Wang Family.”

“Ha…” Fang Yunshu chuckled again, but her smile was filled with indescribable sadness. “Yes, who am I? I’ve given birth to a child before, and 1 don’t have any status in the Fang Family. As long as there’s a man who’s decent enough. I’m obliged to gain their favor.”

Ye Xiaofei tightened his grip on Fang Yunshu and pulled her into his embrace. With a fierce look in his eyes, he said, “Nonsense, a piece of trash like Wang Yuqiang can t even compare to a strand of your hair.”

Fang Yunshu turned to look at Ye Xiaofei, then shook her head gently and said, “Let s go. I don’t want to talk anymore.”

“You’re not allowed to leave!” Fang Qianlong shouted. “If you don’t agree to the Wang Family’s request, don’t even think about leaving!”

Ye Xiaofei’s eyes flashed with a cold light. He hugged Fang Yunshu and shouted, “You can come and go as you wish. Today, I want to see who dares to stop you!”

Ye Xiaofei’s imposing aura pressured everyone. Each of them instantly felt as if they were being stared at by a ferocious beast. As long as they moved, they would be torn into pieces.

It was nor until Ye Xiaofei and Fang Yunshu walked out of the villa that they let out a breath of air.

Fang Qianlong was so angry that he breathed heavily and glared at Ye Xiaofei in the distance. “How dare you! You’re going too far! Ye Xiaofei, if the Fang Family doesn’t punish you, we won’t have the face to stay in Ning City anymore!”

Wang Yuqiang snorted and said, “I’ve given the Fang Family an opportunity. Whether you can grasp it or not is up to you. Don’t wait until the Wang Family has truly become the number one family in Ning City before coming to me. If you come to me then, I’m afraid you won’t have such a good opportunity offered anymore.”

Wang Yuqiang hared Ye Xiaofei to the bone, but the Wang Family couldn’t really do anything to Ye Xiaofei now.

After all, Luna and Meng Zhijing had a very good relationship. If the Wang Family and Ye Xiaofei had a conflict again, it would affect the Wang Family and Nox Company’s cooperation.

So, he wanted to have the Fang Family deal with Ye Xiaofei instead.

Wang Yuqiang couldn’t help but feel a little smug. To be able to come up with a strategy that wouldn’t dirty his own hands was already a great improvement on his part.

Ye Xiaofei and Fang Yunshu walked to the door. Fang Yunshu turned her head and squeezed out two words from between her teeth, “Let go!”

“Ohl” Ye Xiaofei let go of his hand in disappointment, then immediately said, “1 didn’t mean to take advantage of you. I was trying to protect you so that they wouldn’t find trouble with you.”

After getting into Ye Xiaofei’s car. Fang Yunshu let out a long sigh and suddenly chuckled.

“Hey, are you all right?” Ye Xiaofei asked worriedly.

“I’m fine,” said Fang Yunshu. “I suddenly feel very relaxed. I don’t have to be submissive anymore. 1 don’t have to accommodate others anymore. I don’t have to think of ways to please others anymore. The burden of the Fang Family has been weighing me down to the point that 1 can’t breathe. Now that I’m relieved of it, I’m really relaxed.”

“Ha… It’s great that you’re able to let it go.” Ye Xiaofei was as happy as Fang Yunshu.

Fang Yunshu shrugged her shoulders and looked out of the window, not saying a word for a long time.

“You bought a car and a house. It seems that your conditions are not bad now.”

Fang Yunshu’s sudden words confused Ye Xiaofei. Fang Yunshu had never cared about his situation, so that was definitely the first time she was asking about his living situation.

“Hehe, it’s just so-so,” Ye Xiaofei answered modestly.

Fang Yunshu glanced at Ye Xiaofei and uttered, “It’s thanks to that investor, right? She gives you anything from a sports car worth a few million to a house worth a few million.”

Why did Ye Xiaofei feel that there was a hidden meaning in Fang Yunshu’s words? He hurriedly said, “No, that was all bought using my own money. Besides, Meng Zhijing isn’t my sugar mommy. She’s my subordinate.”

“Your subordinate?” Fang Yunshu rolled her eyes at Ye Xiaofei. “I’ve heard about that woman. Although she doesn’t have much power, she’s still a person with quite a status. Who are you trying to fool?”

“If you don’t believe me, 1’11 call her over and have her tell you,” Ye Xiaofei said immediately.

“Humph, I’m nobody to you. You don’t have to prove anything to me. I just want to remind you that if you want Ling er s condition to be better, then you’d better not let those messy things affect Ling er.”

Ye Xiaofei quickly said, “1 won’t! Ling er is my little darling. 1 won t think of teaching her bad things.”

After a moment of silence, Fang Yunshu said to herself, “It’s a new beginning. 1 need to find a job first.”

Ye Xiaofei chuckled and suggested, “1 have an idea to let you both have a job and vent all the anger you’ve suppressed during this period of time.”

“Huh?” Fang Yunshu was confused..
