The thought of marrying Xiaofei, whom he had always considered a sister since she had cared for and protected him throughout their childhood, made him feel as if he had behaved like an animal, even though there was no blood relation between them.
Three rounds of drinks later, when Ye Chenfeng and Ye Dongjian left the restaurant, the night had already fallen.
Ye Dongjian's military jeep was parked in the parking lot next to the restaurant. Since Ye Chenfeng had arrived by taxi, Dongjian insisted on giving him a ride back to his villa.
The autumn wind was bleak; the weather in Tianhai in November was already quite cool, turning chilly as the night progressed.
