Seeing Yang Hui and Liu Feng teasing Ye Chen with all their might, Ye Ming could not help but say, "Forget it. Xiaochen was just joking. Don't take it seriously. Go back."
Yang Hui opened her mouth and scoffed. Meanwhile, Liu Feng looked disappointed. He could not wait to see Ye Chen embarrass himself. However, since Ye Ming had already said that, he would seem overbearing if he insisted.
Just when they were planning to leave, Ye Chen said without even thinking, "Sure, Second Uncle.
However, Ye Chen said without thinking, "Sure, Second Uncle. I happen to be free today. If you guys really want to see it, I can bring you guys there now."
The few of them were stunned to hear that. They thought they had heard it wrong.
Ye Wen glanced at him in utter disgust.
'How long are you going to pretend?
My dad has already taken the initiative to give you a way out. Not only do you not understand, but you're still acting tough. Your lies will be exposed eventually. '
"Xiaochen, you …" Ye Ming frowned. He had no idea what to say at the moment.
Liu Feng was secretly elated. He interrupted immediately, "Uncle Ye, since Ye Chen has taken the initiative to invite us, let's go take a look. Otherwise, he'll think that we're not showing him respect."
'Ye Chen, oh, Ye Chen!
You're really seeking death this time!
I'd like to see how you're going to clean up after your lies are exposed! '
Ye Ming glanced at Ye Chen helplessly. Just when he was going to speak, Yang Hui grabbed his hand and walked down. She said as they walked, "Why are you still talking so much? Your nephew has grown up. It's only right for him to invite you, a senior, to his new mansion."
Ye Wen did not want to go at first. However, she was furious after seeing Ye Chen pretending to be calm. She clenched her teeth and followed them to the villas below.
Ye Ming shook his head as he walked. He was secretly thinking about how he could help Ye Chen out of the situation later. Meanwhile, he could teach him a lesson without hurting his pride.
Over ten minutes later, the few of them arrived at the man-made lake across Nine Dragons Bay.
As they looked far away, they could see the beautiful scenery around Nine Dragons Bay. All of them were shocked by the palace that could be described as a villa.
Seeing that there was no way out, Yang Hui glanced at Ye Chen while smirking. She said gloatingly, "Xiaochen, there's no way out. Why don't you, the master, tell us how we're going to get there?"
"There's a man-made lake around here. The width of the lake should be more than ten meters, and there's no bridge. I think the owner of the villa did this on purpose to prevent some riffraff from going over." Liu Feng introduced while smiling. He emphasized on the word 'shady' on purpose. He even glanced at Ye Chen meaningfully.
Ye Ming sighed and took over the conversation. "This villa belongs to the wealthy Lin Tai. You guys might not have heard of Lin Tai, but you guys should know Brother Leopard."
"Brother Leopard?"
Liu Feng inhaled sharply, his face filled with shock. "You mean Brother Leopard who controls the entire underground of Lin City? His power even covers the entire three provinces of Tiannan?"
He knew a little about Brother Leopard. He could still vaguely remember the last time he and the others went online in the internet cafe, they had offended Brother Leopard's underling, Brother Viper. Even Chen Wu, who ran amok on East Street, was as obedient as a quail in front of Viper.
How terrifying was Brother Leopard?
"Yes, it's him."
Ye Ming nodded and said with fear on his face, "What you guys don't know is that not only is he ruthless in the dark, but nobody dares to offend him in the open. It's not an exaggeration to say that he's a man of the law."
"Xiaochen, didn't you say that this villa belongs to you? Why is Brother Leopard involved? "Yang Hui looked at Ye Chen, pretending to be confused.
Ye Chen smiled calmly. "It used to be Lin Tai's, but he gave it to me."
"Say, Ye Chen, can you stop pretending?"
Liu Feng could no longer hold back his ridicule. He said with a scoff, "Brother Leopard isn't to be trifled with. You've claimed his villa and brought us here. If he finds out about this, everyone here will be in trouble."
"Don't worry. He wouldn't dare."
Ye Chen smiled lightly and took out his phone to make a call. He said, "Get the speedboat here."
The smirk on Liu Feng's face grew when he saw that. 'Keep pretending. You really won't give up until you reach the yellow river. If you really offend Brother Leopard, I'll be the first to say that you lied to us.'
Ye Wen looked at Ye Chen in disgust. She turned her head to say to Ye Ming and Yang Hui, "Dad, Mom, let's go back. This is boring."
She really did not want to look at Ye Chen at the moment. 'How can he be so stubborn at a time like this? He even got a speedboat to pick them up.'
A loud thud came from the other side of the lake as soon as she was done speaking. Subsequently, a white speedboat drove over quickly from the other side of the lake.
"There's really a speedboat here?" Yang Hui looked shocked. She glanced at Ye Chen secretly.
Could this villa really belong to him?
Liu Feng shook his head and said arrogantly, "It's not here to pick us up. The owner must've found out that we're here, so he's mad."
Yang Hui and Ye Ming could not help but get nervous as soon as he said that. Yang Hui glared at Ye Chen coldly. "You've screwed us over."
"Forget it. I'll try my best to talk to the owner when they get here later." Ye Ming forced a smile.
Ye Chen smiled without saying anything. Soon, the speedboat arrived by the lake that they were standing on. An old man in a long robe walked down from it.
The old man wore gold-framed glasses and had an extraordinary aura.
Could he be the owner of the villa?
Just when everyone was having their own thoughts, they saw Li Fu get out of the lake and jog to Ye Chen.
As everyone watched with their mouths agape, the old man bowed hard at Ye Chen. He said extremely respectfully, "Mr. Ye, your most loyal butler, Ah Fu, is here."
He did not even look at the rest throughout the entire process.
At that moment, everyone apart from Ye Chen was dumbstruck. There was dead silence.
Ye Chen nodded calmly and stretched his arm to point at Ye Ming who was next to him. "I'm here to bring some of my relatives here. This is my Second Uncle, Ye Ming. He's currently the deputy director of the General Affairs Office in the development zone."
"Nice to meet you, Director Ye. I've always heard that there's an extraordinarily honest and upright office director here, but I've never seen him. Now that I've met him today, I'm sure that he lives up to his reputation." Li Fu smiled at Ye Ming in an extremely polite manner.
Ye Ming waved in panic and said while gulping, "L-Xiaochen, i-is Nine Dragons Bay really yours?"
He didn't know how to describe his current mood. He had seen the old man in front of him before, but at that time, the old man was very arrogant and had never put him, the deputy director, in his eyes. How could he be as amiable as he was now?
Just when Ye Chen was going to speak while smiling, Li Fu spoke first, "Director Ye, Nine Dragons Bay really belongs to Mr. Ye. Brother Leopard gave it to him."
Ye Ming felt like the world was spinning as soon as he was done speaking.
Ye Ming felt like the world was spinning.
Ye Wen's lips opened slightly as disbelief filled her beautiful eyes. Subsequently, she felt a burning sensation on her face.
'So, he wasn't lying from the beginning.
'I can't believe I thought he was pretending …'
Yang Hui's face turned pale. She could not speak as if someone was choking her.
Among the few of them, Liu Feng was the most exaggerated one. At that moment, he could not stop drooling while cold sweat seeped out of his forehead.
Mr. Ye, the butler, and Brother Leopard gave it to him …
