Chapter 383: Maybe I’m Handsome!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
‘It’s him! I can’t believe that he dares to come to Hong Kong!’
Tang Ning glared angrily at Ye Chen while the humiliation that she had felt back then was rushing into her body. Her face was turning red as she was eager to fight Ye Chen right there and then.
“Boss, what’s wrong?” Shen Xingye, who was standing next to her, asked while smiling.
He was already handsome enough, and his smile made the ladies around him blush and charmed their socks off.
“Nothing!” Tang Ning took a deep breath and looked away from Ye Chen as she clenched her fists. “Xingye, let’s meet Young Master Lei.”
She managed to suppress her anger while facing her enemy. After all, it was not the right place to take revenge. Young Master Lei would not allow anyone to stir things up at his event.
Most importantly, the trip to China matured her significantly. She knew when to hold back and when to release her frustration. That was the reason why she got the Tang family’s support.
‘Ye! I’ll get you after the ball!’
“Sure!” Shen Xingye glanced at Ye Chen following her gaze. He nodded lightly as if he was in deep thought. Then, they went to the third floor of the ballroom following a lady.
…
Ye Chen was surprised to see Tang Ning here. However, he did not care about her opinion of him.
Back then, he only let her go for the sake of his old classmate, Shen Jing, and his father. If she wanted to take revenge on him, he would not show any mercy! To him, Tang Ning was no different than an ant!
Dai Shiyu, who was aside, blinked and asked in confusion, “Mr. Ye, why did Young Mistress Tang stare at you?” She had also noticed something off about Tang Ning earlier.
“Maybe it’s because I’m handsome!” Ye Chen smiled lightly.
Dai Shiyu was speechless to hear his response. ‘Are you even sure you’re handsome? Although you’re not ugly, you’re nowhere near handsome.’
She rolled her eyes at Ye Chen directly. “Young Master Shen, who is next to Young Mistress Tang, is handsome. It’s no wonder that he’s one of the Four Most Handsome Men in Hong Kong.”
“That’s Young Master Shen?” Ye Chen was surprised.
So, he was Hong Kong’s feng shui master, Shen Tiannan’s son?
“That’s right!” Dai Shiyu nodded slightly and smiled sweetly as she spoke, “What’s wrong with you? Don’t you know Young Master Shen? Judging by that, you must’ve never seen Young Master Lei.”
Ye Chen shook his head and smiled in an awkward manner. “They’re not as important as money, so why must I know them?”
Dai Shiyu was stunned, speechless by his sarcasm.
‘Dumb fool! What a dumb guy! Is this how you talk to a girl?’
At that moment, Fang Mi and Fang Hao came down from the third floor. There was excitement between their brows that they could not hide.
Fang Mi was surprised to notice Ye Chen still there. She could not help but walk over, “Ye Chen, why are you still here?”
“Where else would I be if not here?” Ye Chen said.
“What I mean is that you shouldn’t be here since you’re not on the guest list,” Fang Mi frowned, feeling rather upset.
She took a look at the guest list earlier intentionally, Ye Chen’s name was not on the list. Therefore, she assumed that Ye Chen sneaked in.
Fang Hao thought he wanted to mock Ye Chen, but his eyes lit up when he saw Dai Shiyu behind Ye Chen. He said while smiling, “Let’s get to know each other, gorgeous. I’m Fang Hao from the Fang family!” He stretched his hand out as he spoke.
Dai Shiyu loathed the way he looked at her, so she did not shake his hand. Instead, she went closer to Ye Chen by instinct and said, “I’m Dai Shiyu!”
Jealousy and rage flashed through Fang Hao’s eyes when he noticed what she did.
“Ms. Dai, I bet you didn’t know this, but this guy next to you sneaked in. It’ll look bad on you if you get too close to him,” Fang Hao said with a plastic smile on his face.
“Impossible! It’s impossible that Mr. Ye snuck in.” Dai Shiyu shook her head without even thinking about it. She had witnessed Ye Chen’s ability, it was not an exaggeration to call him a god. How could it be possible for such a man not to get an invitation to the ball?
Fang Hao’s expression turned grim. He suddenly saw a person walking from far away when he was going to speak further. Then, he grinned. “Ye Chen, it’s the end for you. Brother Long is here.”
Fang Mi looked over by instinct and saw Wang Long walking over from far while holding a glass of red wine. People greeted him as he walked over.
Her expression changed while she said to Ye Chen immediately, “He’s the boss of Sun Yee On Guild, Wang Long. You beat up his men earlier and ran away. You’ll die if he sees you.”
“Run? Where are you going to run? The exits are locked as soon as the ball starts, so you can only wait until the ball ends.” Fang Hao smiled in a gloating manner.
‘Ye, you’re dead!’
Fang Mi said angrily after noticing that Ye Chen remained still as if he did not see Wang Long. “Why are you standing here? Go and hide somewhere now.”
‘You dummy! Are you not afraid of death or is there something wrong with your head?!’ She did not notice the confusion on Dai Shiyu’s face at all.
Dai Shiyu recalled that Wang Long was the man who had been chased at sea. If not for Ye Chen, he would have been dead. Why would such a man hold a grudge against Mr. Ye?
At that moment, Wang Long was walking toward them.
Fang Mi could not help but shake her head. She secretly assumed that Ye Chen would be killed soon. Meanwhile, Fang Hao could not hide the gloat on his face at all.
However, they saw Wang Long walk quickly to Ye Chen in the next second. He said to Ye Chen politely, “I’m sorry, Mr. Ye. I bumped into a few old friends over there. Sorry to have left you alone!”
Fang Mi and Fang Hao were dumbstruck. They thought that Wang Long would be pissed off when he saw Ye Chen and teach him a lesson.
However, Wang Long called him Mr. Ye as soon as he saw him and even apologized for leaving Ye Chen alone? His tone and attitude were so polite. He even sounded respectful! How did that look like a man with a grudge? How was that possible?
They clearly remembered seeing Yan Tie complaining to Wang Long, as well as the scene whereby Wang Long was enraged.
“Brother Long, this brat is the one who beat up Brother Elephant and Yan Tie,” Fang Hao could not help but remind before Ye Chen could speak. He thought that Wang Long did not recognize Ye Chen.
Fang Mi panicked instantly.
However, Wang Long gave a short response and grinned as he spoke, “Elephant and Yan Tie deserve to die after having offended Mr. Ye!”
They deserved to die?
Fang Mi and Fang Hao were stunned at first. They then snapped back to their senses and looked at Ye Chen and Wang Long in disbelief as chills ran down their backs.
‘Elephant and Master Yan are dead?! How is that possible?! What exactly happened?!’ Fang Hao could not stop screaming inside. Fang Mi glanced at Ye Chen after seeming to recall something.
‘Who exactly are you for the boss of Sun Yee On Guild to be so respectful of you? Two men even died because of you.’ She understood slightly why his grandfather had ordered them to take good care of Ye Chen as she thought to this point. Nevertheless, rage welled up within her.
‘Why didn’t you tell us that you’re so powerful? You made us worry for nothing.’ She felt humiliated when she recalled herself asking Ye Chen to hide. She wanted to bury herself in a hole.
A commotion burst from the crowd at that moment.
“Young Master Lei is here!”
