Chapter 140: Chapter 140: Chance Encounter

Ye Ling, having left the coffee shop, gazed at the dazzling stars scattered across the sky and let out a deep sigh.In the past, he thought that when he saw Liu Fei again, he had to slap her fiercely or crush her with banknotes, all to vent this deep-seated anger.

But now, none of it seemed so important anymore, perhaps it was all about one's mindset.

Once an Immortal Emperor, who defied the Nine Heavens, his mindset was naturally much stronger than that of mortals; otherwise, how could he have reached the pinnacle of cultivators and look down upon the multitude of living beings?

Since he had come to the coffee shop in Qu Yishan's car, Ye Ling did not drive himself and was now ready to set off to find Lin Hua, who had ignored his words as if they were non-existent.

This damned bastard owed him a full five hundred million, oh, of course, by now that probably wasn't enough.

The words of this Immortal Emperor have always been resolute; it had been so long, and yet he still dared to hire assassins to target him, tsk tsk, how could I not extort you for ten or eight billion to be worthy of myself?

As for Lin Hua's location, it was quite simple; working at the same company as Liu Qiao'er, many knew where he lived.

However, just at this moment, as Ye Ling was walking forward, he was suddenly gripped tightly by an arm, nearly causing him to cry out in alarm.

"Who! Who dares to ambush me!" Ye Ling shouted as he turned around, his face immediately darkening.

Liu Fei, it was actually Liu Fei, her hands tightly clinging to Ye Ling's arm, showing no sign of letting go, her face even bearing a hint of coquetry.

"Ye Ling, are you testing me?"

"I know you must blame me for how I spoke to you before, for looking down on you, and even for the excessive things I said!"

"But do you know that I was just deliberately provoking you, to give you the motivation to strive harder, to kindle the fighting spirit in your heart."

"Now I haven't misjudged, you really are a man worthy of entrusting a life to, Ye Ling, I love you!"

Liu Fei looked at Ye Ling with tender affection, speaking softly, and even tried to nudge closer to him, only for Ye Ling to skillfully dodge her approach.

Ye Ling looked at Liu Fei in such a state and shook his head: "I wasn't wrong about you, you're still so shameless. You can even make cheating sound like noble righteousness, you really outdo yourself."

"All right, please leave. I have nothing to do with you anymore; oh no, it was in the park that we already ended all relations," Ye Ling said as he patted his arm that had been grasped by Liu Fei and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Liu Fei was unwilling to let go and directly stepped forward to embrace Ye Ling: "Ye Ling, you still love me, don't you?"

"I know you must still love me, you can't possibly forget me in such a short time."

"Forgive me, give me another chance, give both of us a chance!"

"I'm willing to give you everything, including myself!"

Liu Fei still had her assets to be proud of; otherwise, how could the former Ye Ling have fallen for her?

Hearing these words, Ye Ling's eyes were tinged with a trace of icy coldness, not showing a hint of sentimentality.

"Liu Fei, a person needs to have some shame, otherwise, there's no difference between you and a beast. Don't cling to me anymore. You chose this path yourself; to use that Internet slogan, you must finish the road you've chosen, even if you have to crawl."

After speaking, Ye Ling strode away, leaving behind Liu Fei, who collapsed to the ground, her face streaming with tears.

Watching Ye Ling's retreating figure, Liu Fei's heart felt as if it had been torn to shreds, but only she knew that this shattered heart was actually composed of banknotes, amounting to five or six billion!

Yes, Liu Fei, this woman, desired not men but money enough for her to squander and indulge in luxury.

It wasn't until Ye Ling's figure had completely disappeared that Liu Fei stood up, glanced at Liu Min who still sat in the café, phone in hand, shaking and clueless about how to explain to her father, and left with a contemptuous smile.

Life is like a play, all dependent on acting—and Liu Fei was the recipient of the Oscar for Best Actress in that realm.

Nine o'clock at night was still bustling and noisy for Donghai City, with a constant stream of traffic on the streets and neon lights crisscrossing along the sidewalks, casting the most enchanting scene of this international metropolis.

Yangzi Lake was a famous natural lake in Donghai City, not man-made, but formed naturally, with a history of several hundred years.

By Yangzi Lake, couples old and young walked side by side, some snuggling close, some wrapped in hugs, engaging in intimate gestures. Unfortunately for Ye Ling, the less desirable antics he had hoped to witness were absent.

"Ah, the quality of people these days, how high it has become. Just the other day, a couple kissed for twenty-one stations on the subway, shocking the entire country. Why isn't there anyone making love by Yangzi Lake until the break of dawn?"

"Tsk tsk, not a single worthy opponent to spar with, at the very least they could exchange some experience, alas, being invincible is so lonesome."

Ye Ling shook his head and muttered to himself with a pout, when suddenly, his eyes brightened, shining with a green light as if a famished wolf had spotted its meal.

In front of him, a beautiful woman approached, roughly one hundred seventy-five centimeters tall, with a slender figure and long, fair legs.

She wore tight leather shorts and black high-heeled shoes, with a leather jacket so short it didn't even cover her belly button, accentuating a pair of ample assets even more magnificently.

Her exquisite cheeks framed a pair of narrow, speaking eyes, tilting upward at the corners—fox eyes, as they're commonly called, extremely inviting.

Her full, red lips appeared small but seemed to exude boundless allure with every movement, and her luscious red hair cascaded over her shoulders like a fiery red waterfall of molten lava.

An absolute stunner, she radiated intoxicating allure, smiling faintly as she walked towards Ye Ling.

"Damn it, at last I understand the charm of a woman for whom one would willingly sacrifice ten years of life just for a single battle in bed!"

Ye Ling licked his lips, feeling a wild rush of male hormones surging throughout his body.

Shen Yuexin, Liu Qiao'er, Han Qingxin, Chen Yan, Ning Yushan, and Wang Ningmei—Ye Ling was acquainted with a plethora of top-grade beauties, each and every one of them alluring and formidable.

But when it comes to women, once comparison comes into play, hierarchies emerge.

If there were one among them who could genuinely be compared to the woman who had even Ye Ling struggling to maintain control, it would be Shen Yuexin.

As the woman passed by Ye Ling, his fingers deftly hooked, smoothly grazing over her hand. Explore stories on M-V-L seaʀᴄh thё ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Wow!

What a thrill!

Her skin was like jade!

It was cool to the touch, not the usual cold, but a different kind of flavor.

This move was not overlooked by the beauty—instead, she stopped and with a slight lift of her mouth corners, asked, "What? You want to hit on me?"
