The medical equipment store was left reeking by Zhou Jue'an's actions, and he deeply regretted approaching Ye Chenfeng. Only now did he realize that if Ye Chenfeng was a fool, then he, Zhou Jue'an, was worse than a fool.
The fury burning inside Zhou Jue'an grew more intense. The incident of him losing control of his bladder in front of Capital City's number one beauty, Bai Xueling, would likely turn him into a laughingstock in Capital City's circles once word got out!
He could only swallow his pride like broken teeth down his throat. He desperately wanted to leave this place and avoid further embarrassment.
However, as much as he thought this, his laughter became even louder. The pain churning in his stomach felt like it was overturning rivers and seas, making him feel as if his intestines were going to come out.
He seemed to be completely drained, and he plopped down onto the filthy substance on the ground. Who asked this idiot to show off in front of Ye Chen? If someone with no real ability tries to show off, they'll only end up making a fool of themselves. Only those with true power can show off impressively.
"Xueling, my cousin..." Zhou Ting now wished she could find a hole to crawl into. It had taken her a lot of effort to arrange a meeting between Bai Xueling and Zhou Jue'an, and now she was utterly mortified by Zhou Jue'an's behavior.
Bai Xueling's anger, ignited by Ye Chen, had not subsided. Hearing Zhou Ting's words, she glanced at Zhou Jue'an and immediately averted her gaze.
She had detected something off in Zhou Jue'an's gaze ever since they met. She had only endured it because of Zhou Ting's face, and she said coldly, "Tingting, the next time the two of us go out, don't invite anyone else. Today, I didn't walk away on account of your face."
Zhou Ting knew Bai Xueling was truly angry and quickly apologized, "Xueling, it was my fault this time. I won't do it again."
The Bais were one of Capital City's top families, and Zhou Ting didn't want to lose a friend like Bai Xueling, especially since she would need to call on her in the future!
Not long after Ye Chenfeng stepped out of the medical equipment store, he saw Wu Xiaofei, dressed in a military uniform, rushing over hastily and gave Ye Chenfeng a smack on the head, speaking annoyed, "Chenfeng, did you go to the military hospital?"
"Xiaofei, how did you know I was here?" Ye Chenfeng, rubbing his forehead and discontented, said, "Can you be less violent? What if you can't get married later?"
"Oh, so you've learned to tease me now?" Wu Xiaofei pouted angrily and said, "Finding you was easy. Your car has a GPS system. I went to the Yes before I came here."
Ye Chenfeng had almost forgotten about that. His Mercedes sports car was equipped with a GPS system. Back when he would be away for days, uncontactable, his mother secretly had someone install the GPS to easily track his whereabouts.
Initially, Ye Chenfeng had wanted to find and remove the GPS, but then he was beaten up one time and developed panic disorder. He hadn't driven the car at all in the past three years.
Scratching his head in confusion, Ye Chenfeng asked doubtfully, "Xiaofei, what are you rambling about? Why would I go to the military hospital? Do I have a death wish or something? The security there is so strict; if I had really gone there, could I still be standing here in front of you?"
Wu Xiaofei listened and thought it made sense—after all, she only knew that Ye Chenfeng's panic disorder was completely cured, not how capable he was in combat. She asked uncertainly, "Then how did Elder Ye get out of the military hospital? And it seems like he wasn't even ill."
"You should ask my grandfather about that! Why ask me?" Ye Chenfeng rolled his eyes as he spoke.
While Ye Chenfeng and Wu Xiaofei were talking, Bai Xueling and Zhou Ting also left the medical equipment store. As for Zhou Jue'an, Zhou Ting had already called someone to take him to the hospital.
However, going to the hospital would probably be in vain, as there's no remedy there for the kind of acupuncture technique Ye Chenfeng used! Zhou Jue'an would be plagued with its effects for a full two days.
Bai Xueling's cold and beautiful eyes caught sight of Ye Chenfeng and Wu Xiaofei chatting and laughing together. She felt a surge of indignation, biting her lip as she thought, "Ye Chenfeng, how dare you criticize me when you're cuddling up to another woman yourself? And here I have absolutely nothing going on with Zhou Jue'an."
Whether it was anger clouding her judgment or something else, Bai Xueling actually walked over to Ye Chenfeng and Wu Xiaofei. With a cool tone, she said, "Ye Chenfeng, I want you to take back what you just said. There's absolutely nothing between me and Zhou Jue'an."
Ye Chenfeng noticed Bai Xueling's hostile gaze flicking toward Wu Xiaofei and swiftly pulled Wu Xiaofei into his embrace. Before she could react, his lips were already pressed against hers.
Caught by surprise with the sudden kiss, Wu Xiaofei's mind went blank. She did not push Ye Chenfeng away immediately, allowing his tongue to freely explore her mouth.
After a deep kiss, Ye Chenfeng, still unsatisfied, licked his lips and said, "Why should I take back what I said? Open your eyes and look closely. If I ever look for a woman in the future, I want someone like my Xiaofei. With curves where they should be and lines where they're needed, unlike you—just a flat washboard. And yet you call yourself the Capital City's number one beauty!"
Ye Chenfeng didn't know why, but every time he saw Bai Xueling's proud demeanor, he couldn't help but want to knock her down a peg.
In reality, Bai Xueling's figure was quite perfect. It was just not as mature as Wu Xiaofei's. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been crowned the Capital City's number one beauty.
Hearing this, Bai Xueling was so furious that her chest heaved violently. Pointing her finger at Ye Chenfeng, she scolded, "You—you jerk, I don't ever want to see you again!"
After her outburst, Bai Xueling stormed off. Which woman in the world doesn't cherish beauty? With such degrading words flung at her, how could she bear it?
If the other young masters of the Capital City saw the number one beauty cursing like that, they would certainly be flabbergasted. In their eyes, Bai Xueling was an ice queen, always indifferent to everyone, let alone showing anger.
After Bai Xueling and Zhou Ting left, Wu Xiaofei slowly came back to her senses. Her cheeks flushed, she threw a punch at Ye Chenfeng's chest. "You, what did you just do to me? That was my first kiss."
This time, Ye Chenfeng dodged in advance, touched his nose somewhat sheepishly, and thought, in truth, he had always seen Wu Xiaofei as a sister. His action was just a spontaneous impulse to rile up Bai Xueling.
"Xiaofei, that wasn't really your first kiss, remember when we played house as kids? Didn't we often kiss? But it was just a peck on the lips, you won't make a big deal out of it, right? Our affection as brother and sister is pure. If you have improper thoughts about me, it can only mean you are the one harboring such feelings. A small kiss between siblings is very normal," Ye Chenfeng quickly made up a string of excuses.
Left speechless by Ye Chenfeng's argument, Wu Xiaofei managed to smile awkwardly, her cheeks still reddened as she said, "Chenfeng, do you really think your Xiaofei sister is so petty? Come here, to your sister."
"Hey, Xiaofei, look over there! That couple is kissing too!" Ye Chenfeng pointed behind Wu Xiaofei and said.
Wu Xiaofei turned around, only to find not a single silhouette behind her. Realizing she had been tricked, she quickly turned back around but saw that Ye Chenfeng was already sitting in the car, waving at her. "Xiaofei, do you think I'm an idiot? If I listened to you, you'd probably torment me to death. It's just a little kiss! Our brother-sister love is still very pure."
Watching the Mercedes coupe speed away, Wu Xiaofei stomped her foot on the ground twice and yelled, "Chenfeng, how dare you take advantage of your Xiaofei sister? Next time, I definitely won't let you off."
Her hand touched her still-warm lips, Wu Xiaofei felt as though she could still sense the warmth left by Ye Chen's kiss. Her cheeks burned hotter than ever.
