Chapter 32: We Can’t Go Back to the Past!
When Guo Fei looked at Ye Fan in confusion, he suddenly caught a sharp glint flashing through Ye Fan’s eyes!
The threatening meaning in that gaze was unmistakable, and he even gave a subtle nod!
Boom!
A thunderclap instantly exploded in Guo Fei’s mind!
That young master of the Ye family wasn’t a fool at all?
He had quietly become one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Xuanwu War Zone. This should be the highest military rank any of the Ye family’s younger generation had ever attained, right? The old master of the Ye family founded the Heavenly Dragon Army and became the esteemed King of Beiliang, only to eventually become a target of the imperial family’s suspicion.
And now, although the Ye family had been ambushed, they ultimately had someone to carry on the family legacy?
After thinking rapidly for just a few seconds, Guo Fei immediately understood that Ye Fan was telling him to keep this secret and get lost at once.
“Your subordinate takes his leave! I will absolutely obey the Heavenly King’s orders!” Guo Fei quickly got up from the ground, called out to his men, and turned to leave. Before departing, Guo Fei did not forget to remind him, “Young Master Ye, please be careful of Xuan Zhengguo.”
Actually, Ye Fan did not need Guo Fei to remind him. He naturally knew that Xuan Zhengguo was the one who had called in reinforcements.
“Big bro? What was that thing you just showed? It was so awesome! It could actually make a major tremble in fear like that? Big bro, are you hiding something from me? Hurry and let me see!”
As soon as Guo Fei left, Wang Fugui stepped forward and grabbed Ye Fan’s arm, wanting to see the token from just now.
Wang Fugui’s grandfather had been Ye Fan’s grandfather’s deputy general, so Wang Fugui also knew a little about military affairs.
The Four Heavenly Kings of the Xuanwu Army—that was a position commanding the entire Great Xia.
The old master of the Ye family had once said that as long as even one Heavenly King appeared in the Heavenly Dragon Army, he would no longer have to worry about the Heavenly Dragon Army being disbanded.
“Forget it! Old Wang, are you trying to steal my gold? I’m telling you, even if you’re my brother, you can’t!” Ye Fan hurriedly covered his pocket tightly, as if he were afraid Wang Fugui would snatch his token away.
Xia Hao, watching from the side, had a dark line appear across his face!
He knew Ye Fan’s situation very well.
Sigh!
Young Master Ye really had it hard. He had clearly awakened, yet he still had to pretend to be a fool.
However, Young Master Ye’s acting was truly unparalleled. The way Young Master Ye was playing a fool now couldn’t merely be called convincing; he was practically identical to a genuine fool. With acting skills like Young Master Ye’s, if he went to Hollywood, he would definitely come back with an Oscar statuette.
“If you don’t want me to see it, then forget it! Big bro, I was just curious!” Wang Fugui had never gone against Ye Fan’s wishes. Since Ye Fan refused, Wang Fugui did not continue asking.
But Li Hu and the brothers under him at the scene instantly changed their attitude toward Ye Fan completely, and they no longer had the slightest intention of looking down on him.
Previously, they had not understood why Xia Hao had been fawning over Ye Fan.
Although they had carried out Xia Hao’s orders and treated Ye Fan with utmost respect, that had all been because of the authority of Xia Hao and Li Hu.
But now, a token that had casually fallen from Ye Fan’s person had made a major in camouflage kneel and submit. In their hearts, Ye Fan had already become an existence that could not be offended.
Xuan Zhenghua, inside the room, had also seen most of what was happening outside through the crack in the door and heard everything clearly.
“Damn Xuan Zhengguo! Look at what you’ve done……This was originally a heaven-sent fortune for the Xuan family, yet you actually pushed it away from me! I really want to strangle you!”
“No! There’s absolutely no way I can let such a perfect son-in-law go just like that!”
“But Young Master Ye also said that he still has to continue pretending to be unconscious in front of Yufei, so how exactly should I remind Yufei? I have to think of a way!”
At the entrance of the hospital room, Ye Fan, Xia Hao, and the others did not have to wait long before Xuan Yufei hurried over with several security guards.
Seeing the bodyguards lying on the ground, as well as Ye Fan, Xia Hao, and the others, Xuan Yufei immediately understood.
Her second uncle must have sent people to try to abduct her father, while Ye Fan, Xia Hao, and the others had arrived in advance and rescued her father.
Fortunately, Ye Fan, Xia Hao, and the others had taken action. Otherwise, by the time she arrived, her father would probably already have been taken away by her second uncle’s people.
With her father in her second uncle’s hands, although Xuan Yufei had the support of many senior members of the Xuan Group, she would always have her hands tied.
“Brother Fan! Thank you!” Xuan Yufei’s face was full of affection. She stepped forward, wrapped her arms around Ye Fan’s neck, and was about to kiss him on the lips.
They had once been lovers, but Xuan Yufei had failed to seize that wonderful opportunity.
Now, after going through so many things, Xuan Yufei had become even more determined about her choice.
Even if Ye Fan was a fool, Xuan Yufei was willing to be Ye Fan’s woman.
Just as Xuan Yufei’s red lips were about to touch Ye Fan’s, Ye Fan suddenly pushed her away, “Shame, shame! Wife Yixue said I can’t kiss other girls, no……Yufei, you’re not my wife anymore, we can’t kiss……”
Ye Fan’s words instantly made Xuan Yufei’s entire body stiffen in place.
She was no longer Brother Fan’s wife!
Those words were like a thorn, stabbing deeply into Xuan Yufei’s heart and causing a sharp pain.
That was right!
Since yesterday, she had admitted in front of so many people that she had ended her engagement with Ye Fan. She had not resisted her second uncle’s announcement and had tacitly accepted it, which had caused Ye Fan tremendous harm.
Although Ye Fan’s intelligence had declined now, Xuan Yufei clearly remembered the disappointment in Ye Fan’s eyes yesterday.
Perhaps, although Ye Fan’s intelligence had declined, deep down he must still have cared about her, trusted her unconditionally, and even regarded her as someone he could rely on.
Yet when he needed her most, she had chosen to leave.
In the end, she was the one who had wronged Brother Fan!
Tears were already welling up in her eyes, but Xuan Yufei quickly composed herself, and she also made a decision in her heart.
Since she had made a mistake, she should make amends.
Brother Fan was still in a foolish state now, wasn’t he? Then she would treat him twice as well. Perhaps after he regained consciousness, he would forgive her, and they could rekindle their relationship!
“Brother Fan, yesterday’s matter was orchestrated by Second Uncle, and of course, my tacit acceptance also hurt you! I sincerely apologize to you……but I won’t give up. Today, in front of all these people, I, Xuan Yufei, swear that in this lifetime, I will only be Ye Fan’s woman!”
“For the hurt I caused you before, I will make it up to you little by little!”
“Brother Fan, please, you must give me this chance!”
Every word Xuan Yufei spoke was forceful and resolute.
Everyone looked at one another in bewilderment!
This was practically a dramatic reversal!
Just yesterday, the Xuan family had announced that they were breaking off the engagement with the Ye family, and now they wanted to remarry?
Xia Hao’s eyes narrowed slightly. Could Xuan Yufei have seen through what Young Master Ye was hiding?
Li Hu and the others, meanwhile, were somewhat disdainful!
Did she think the Ye family was a vegetable market, where she could come and go whenever she pleased?
Although Ye Fan’s face showed no expression, his heart was somewhat complicated.
It would be a lie to say he had no feelings for Xuan Yufei. The two had grown up together, childhood sweethearts who had experienced so many beautiful moments together. How could he possibly forget them just like that?
But now that Xuan Yufei wanted to come back, Ye Fan could not possibly agree so easily!
Besides, if he agreed to Xuan Yufei, what would he do about his seven stunning sisters-in-law?
“No! Don’t want me anymore, I already have a wife. Wife Yixue is the best……She said she would give me a big, chubby baby boy!” Ye Fan said with an innocent expression, his eyes filled with happiness.
Seeing this, Xuan Yufei felt another pang of heartache. Something must have happened last night.
But she would never give up!
“It’s okay! Brother Fan, I’ll work hard!” Xuan Yufei endured the pain in her heart and bowed to Xia Hao and the others, “Thank you, everyone! I’ll go settle my father in first, then I’ll treat everyone to a meal to show my gratitude!”
With that, Xuan Yufei walked into the hospital room!
She was afraid that if she continued speaking, she really would not be able to hold back her tears……
