Ye Xiaofei was really depressed. It was supposed to be a very simple thing, but it was a mistake, and it was so troublesome.

Fang Yunshu’s gaze made him even more displeased.

“Heh, I was lying to you.”

Ye Xiaofei’s lips curled up. He did not get angry at this time. Instead, he grinned at Fang Yunshu with a mischievous look.

“Hmph, please.” Fang Yunshu crossed her arms and stepped to the side.

“Alright, I’ll go.” Ye Xiaofei was also very straightforward and walked out directly. However, before he went out, he winked at Fang Ling’er.

Fang Ling’er pouted her lips. She was obviously a little depressed. She had originally thought that Ye Xiaofei would be able to show off in front of her mother, but in the end, it made her mother think that Ye Xiaofei was a liar.

After Ye Xiaofei left, Fang Yunshu turned to look at Fang Ling’er. She frowned and said, “You see it now. He’s a liar. Don’t bother with him in the future.”

Fang Ling’er nodded and played with the bead that Ye Xiaofei gave her.

Fang Yunshu frowned. It seemed like her daughter did not take her words to heart at all.

Ye Xiaofei left the Fang Family’s house. Not far away, a business car parked by the side of the road opened its door, and Luna was sitting inside.

“Mr. Ye, I guessed that you must be here. I’ve been waiting for you here for a long time.”

Ye Xiaofei got into the car and looked at Luna, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He had been looking for her for a long time, but she was here.

“Mr. Ye, you look a little unhappy. Is there anything wrong with what I did?” Luna looked a little nervous.

He asked angrily, “Why didn’t you give me your phone number?”

Luna said apologetically, “Oh? I forgot. I wanted to contact you just now, but I didn’t ask for your contact information.”

Ye Xiaofei rolled his eyes and stopped blaming Luna. “I don’t have a phone yet. Lend me some money first. I’ll go buy a phone first.”

“Borrow?” Luna was stunned.

“What’s wrong? Can’t I borrow some money from you? I’m your biggest shareholder. Are you afraid that I won’t be able to pay you back?”

“No! No!” Luna said hurriedly, “I just didn’t expect Mr. Ye to not have money. I’ll get to it right away.”

Ye Xiaofei spread his hands and said, “That’s right. I’m broke now. My pockets are empty and I don’t have a single cent.”

Luna chuckled. “Mr. Ye’s current wealth is enough to rank in the top 100 in the world. You said you’re poor? What a joke.”

“Hah, that’s true.” Ye Xiaofei leaned back, a gloomy look appearing on his face.

“Mr. Ye, is there anything else that makes you unhappy?” Luna asked carefully.

“No, it’s my own business. Oh, don’t mention me in front of Fang Yunshu.”

“Ah?” Luna asked, confused, “Didn’t you do all this to make her happy?”

Ye Xiaofei said, “This woman makes me very unhappy. If I ask you to tell her directly, I won’t be able to vent my anger.”

“Vent? You guys…” Luna was very curious.

Ye Xiaofei laughed at himself and said, “She refused to believe that I helped her with this matter. She even said that I was a liar.”

Luna was even more confused. “Shouldn’t you prove that you did it right away?”

“No!” Ye Xiaofei waved his hand and said, “This woman has a bad temper. If she knew it was me now, she might not want this benefit anymore. When she gets enough benefits, there’s nothing she can do even if she does not want the benefits anymore. She can’t not thank me. I really want to see what kind of expression she will have when she suddenly finds out that I, a big liar, am the one who really helped her.”

Luna was stunned for a moment before she pursed her lips and smiled. “Mr. Ye, are you trying to play dumb to take advantage of her?”

Ye Xiaofei shook his head. “No. I just want to embarrass her. Hmph, if she gives me a bad attitude, I will show her what is a bad attitude.”

The smile on Luna’s face deepened. Ye Xiaofei was like a child who was angry at this moment, making people feel even closer to him.

Back at the hotel, Luna gave Ye Xiaofei a phone and said, “Mr. Ye, this is a custom-made phone with many special functions. I hope it suits your taste.”

Ye Xiaofei took it immediately and said, “Thank you.”

“Also this is a card that is linked to the financial department of the Nox Company. You can withdraw any amount below 100 million, but if you want more, you have to check in with the financial department.”

“Use anything below 100 million. This is more awesome.” Ye Xiaofei immediately beamed with joy.

Although he had obtained a lot of wealth on Villain Island, it was just empty talk. Now, it was truly in his hands.

In the past, he was a poor kid. With such a huge fortune in his hands, this kind of joy was really difficult to contain.

After Luna left, Ye Xiaofei impatiently took out his phone.

It had been more than five years since he had touched his phone. To a boy, this was definitely very attractive.

In the past five years, cell phone technology had improved a lot. There were too many things that Ye Xiaofei had never seen before.

Ye Xiaofei held his phone and played with it happily.

After a while, Ye Xiaofei finally logged into his QQ account that he had not used for five years.

“Fatty, are you there?”

Ye Xiaofei found an account and sent a message over. He was really excited.

Fatty was a man called Wang Dabao. He was Ye Xiaofei’s high school classmate. They had been deskmates since their first year of high school. They lived in the same dormitory, ate together, and played together. He was Ye Xiaofei’s only true friend.

Wang Dabao was 1.8 meters tall, but he weighed more than 200 pounds. When he walked, the fat on his body shook.

Thinking of him, Ye Xiaofei could not help but smile.

“Xiao Fei? Is it really you?” A few minutes later, a message came back with a string of question marks and a surprised expression.

“Of course it’s me. Did you miss me?” Ye Xiaofei sent a picture of a smirk.

“F*ck! Where the f*ck did you go? I thought you were dead after five years.”

This time, Wang Dabao sent a voice message. His voice was filled with intense excitement and agitation. He even choked up a little.

Ye Xiaofei felt a lump in his throat. Just one sentence from Wang Dabao made him feel that the friendship between them was still there. “I left for a while. I came back because I missed home.”

Wang Dabao’s voice became even more agitated. “F*ck! F*ck! It really is you. Where are you, kid? Let’s meet tomorrow. No, no! I want to see you now.”

Ye Xiaofei said, “Then come to the presidential suite of Ning City Grand Hotel to find me.”
