Luna and Meng Zhijing didn’t eat much, and they were especially refined when it came to eating such things, so they ate a little of each dish and couldn’t finish the dishes.
Ye Xiaofei took their leftovers and continued eating.
Luna was tongue-tied, “Mr. Ye, if you’re not full, I’ll order another serving for you. This… How can you eat our leftovers?”
Meng Zhijing found it quite sweet though. This seemed to prove that Ye Xiaofei did not treat her as an outsider but instead took her as a very close person. Otherwise, how could he do this?
Ye Xiaofei waved his hand and said, “There’s no need for that. Wouldn’t it be a waste if we don’t eat the rest? Wasting food is the most shameful act in the world.”
“Huh?”
Luna and Meng Zhijing looked at Ye Xiaofei in a daze.
Ye Xiaofei shook his head and said, “You guys are living too well. You don’t know how precious food is. Back there, let alone these good things, we had to even fight to pick scraps on the ground and eat them.”
“Can you tell us about your experience?” Luna asked carefully.
Ye Xiaofei grinned and said, “Hehe, we are on a barren island which was very desolate there. It’s not easy to even have a full stomach. Food and water are the most precious things. It is a habit that has been formed over the years, so I just cannot bear to see food waste.”
“My grandfather must be having a hard time there,” Luna said anxiously, “I must go get him.”
“He’s not somewhere you can pick up just because you want to. Just heading there, less than two out of ten people will be able to reach the island alive. If you enter, don’t even think about leaving.”
As he spoke, Ye Xiaofei grinned again, “That place is filled with men. How many years has it been since they’ve seen a woman? If a beauty like you were to go there, wouldn’t those hungry guys swallow you alive?”
Luna’s face turned even paler as she said, “Is it so scary? My God, my grandfather must be suffering there.”
Ye Xiaofei laughed and said, “Not really. I think he’s living quite comfortably. It must’ve been quite boring since he had been fighting with people all his life. Fighting with the heavens brings endless joy.”
Although life on Villain Island was tough, those guys were all quite spirited. No one had ever thought of committing suicide, especially when they felt extremely happy once they secretly found some food.
“By the way, how’s the matter with Fang Yunshu going?” Ye Xiaofei changed the topic.
Luna shook her head gently, sorted out her thoughts, and said, “The cooperation is progressing very smoothly, but I found that there are still many problems. Fang Yunshu can’t really make decisions about many things. Most of her decisions depend on other people. When I visited their company, I also felt that they lacked a positive attitude.”
Ye Xiaofei nodded, “None of those people from the Fang Family are good. It would be strange if they didn’t covet such a big piece of cake.”
“Mr. Ye, it’s apparent that you don’t have a good impression of the Fang family. Then our cooperation…” Luna was a little hesitant.
Ye Xiaofei said, “Continue with it. Make sure that those people’s fox tails are all exposed.”
Suddenly, a melodious tune started playing. It was Ye Xiaofei’s phone.
He picked up and saw that it was Fang Yunshu. His eyes couldn’t help but light up. A hint of a smile crinkled the corners of his eyes and showed on the tips of his eyebrows.
Luna and Meng Zhijing looked at each other. Ye Xiaofei had never shown such a smile to them before.
“Yunshu, why did you call me?” Ye Xiaofei asked with a smile.
Luna and Meng Zhijing understood at the same time. Fang Yunshu obviously had a different status in Ye Xiaofei’s heart, which they could not catch up with at all.
Meng Zhijing was fine as she never thought too much about it.
In contrast, Luna actually felt quite sour.
Although Fang Yunshu was very beautiful, her looks weren’t inferior either. Moreover, her status was much higher than Fang Yunshu’s. Most importantly, the other party had a daughter. She had a greater advantage than Fang Yunshu, so why was Ye Xiaofei so good to the latter?
“Daddy!” Fang Ling’er’s crisp voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Oh my, it’s my precious daughter. Why are you looking for Daddy?” The smile on Ye Xiaofei’s face grew wider.
Luna was even more speechless. She had spent more time with Fang Yunshu these few days. Other than work, they also talked about personal matters. During that time, she probed and found out that Fang Ling’er was not Ye Xiaofei’s biological daughter at all.
Yet, Ye Xiaofei was treating Fang Yunshu’s daughter so well as if she was his biological daughter.
“You don’t have to pick me up tomorrow. Just wait for us at the entrance of the amusement park. We’ll be there at nine.”
“Oh? We?” Ye Xiaofei’s eyes lit up again.
“Yeah, Mommy doesn’t know yet, hehe,” Fang Ling ‘er smiled mischievously.
“Haha, alright.”
“See you tomorrow. I’m hanging up now. Otherwise, Mommy will find out and won’t go with me.”
After hanging up the phone, the smile on Ye Xiaofei’s face didn’t disappear for a long time.
“Mr. Ye, you do like Miss Fang’s daughter.” Luna pouted.
Ye Xiaofei puffed out his chest and said in a very proud tone, “Yeah, she’s very cute.”
“But her father is someone else,” said Luna.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaofei was annoyed. He said hatefully, “To think that bastard father of hers doesn’t even want such a cute daughter. If I catch him, I’ll beat him up until even his grandmother can’t recognize him.”
Luna rolled her eyes. Ye Xiaofei didn’t understand what she meant at all. She was about to say something when Meng Zhijing smiled and spoke up, “Since she has Mr. Ye as her father, that is enough to make up for it.”
Ye Xiaofei shook his head, “It’s not the same. Although I like her, I can’t accompany her like a real father.”
“Then won’t it be fine if you marry Miss Fang?” Meng Zhijing smiled.
Ye Xiaofei was stunned for a moment, then he shook his head like a rattle-drum and said, “It’s impossible, absolutely impossible!”
“Why? Don’t you like Miss Fang?” This time, Luna asked.
“This… It’s not my problem, but Fang Yunshu hates me to death. She won’t even talk to me properly, so how can she possibly marry me?”
Ye Xiaofei shook his head repeatedly. The moment he thought of Fang Yunshu, it was her murderous gaze and her vicious expression.
Luna and Meng Zhijing looked at each other and thought of something else at the same time.
Ye Xiaofei didn’t say that he didn’t want to marry the other party, which was enough to explain everything..
