Wang Kaichen reached out his hand, as if bestowing a favor, to shake hands with Ye Fan.
Ye Fan glanced indifferently at Wang Kaichenâs extended hand and returned his gaze to Wang Kaichenâs face, saying calmly, âUnfortunately, Yanyanâs friend is not necessarily a friend of Ye Fan.â
Wang Kaichenâs expression darkened slightly as he withdrew his hand, then pretended to be indifferent and said, âIs that so?
Thatâs a pity for you.â
âThatâs just what you think,â Ye Fan said.
âHeh,â Wang Kaichen scoffed disinterestedly and turned to Shen Yan, âYanyan, your friend here doesnât seem very friendly.â
Not just Shen Yan, but also others like Shang Shiwei realized that Ye Fan was directly confronting Wang Kaichen, thinking Ye Fan was being rash.
After all, Wang Kaichen wasnât just any rich kid; his father was the deputy mayor of Hua Hai.
Offending him was almost tantamount to being unable to get by in Hua Hai.
Worried for Ye Fan, Shen Yan hurriedly flashed a smile to ease the atmosphere and said, âYoung Master Wang, Ye Fan is straightforward and means no harm.â
Saying this, she quickly shot Ye Fan a look.
âHeh, Yanyan, thank you for your kindness,â Ye Fan smiled at Shen Yan and then turned to look down upon Wang Kaichen, âUnfortunately, I just find you annoying!â
Everyoneâs expression changed, even Wang Kaichen himself was taken aback.
In Hua Haiâs circles, not many people had ever dared to speak to him like this.
Wang Kaichen regained his composure, his face swelling with anger.
Meanwhile, Ye Fan continued, âBro had already made plans with Yanyan over ten days ago.
Who the hell are you to forcefully drag Yanyan along to amuse yourself?
Your father, Wang Hongsheng, is just the lowest-ranking deputy mayor and is already past fifty.
Heâll be out after this term.
You still dare to strut around, acting all important?
Believe it or not, I could slap you right now!â
Ye Fan was close to Tantai Wanrong and sometimes she would share some secrets of the official world with him, which was how he knew some details about Wang Hongsheng.
Ye Fan had quite an understanding of the political scene, knowing that even among deputy mayors, the range of power they held could be vastly different.
Hearing this tirade from Ye Fan, not just Shen Yan, but also Shang Shiwei and the others were shocked.
This was even worse than a slap to the face!
Wang Kaichenâs face turned red then purple, his chest heaving with uncontrollable anger.
âYouâŚ
youâŚâ he stammered, trembling and pointing at Ye Fan, unable to speak.
Ye Fan swatted away Wang Kaichenâs hand with a slap and snorted coldly, âYou what?
If you have the guts, bite me.
Or else, go home and call your old man to bite me.
Just beware, he might break his teeth trying!â
âFine!
Fine!
Youâre called Ye Fan, right?
Just you wait!â With that, he stormed off.
Ye Fan was tall and strong; despite being bullied to his face, Wang Kaichen didnât dare to confront Ye Fan physically.
Shang Shiwei and the others regained their senses from the shock, incredulously glanced at Ye Fan, then hastily said goodbye to Shen Yan and followed Wang Kaichen out.
After everyone had left, Shen Yan turned to Ye Fan, glaring at him with a hint of anger.
âHeh,â Ye Fan chuckled at Shen Yan.
Fuming, Shen Yan retorted, âYouâre still laughing.
What did you tell me before you came to find me?
Did you really need to offend him like that?
Donât think youâre all that just because youâre a deputy chief of the police station.
If they want to deal with you, youâll seeâŚâ
Ye Fan interrupted her with a smile and a wave of his hand, âDonât think Iâm so close to Hua Hai.
The place I work is in Anhui Province.
To get someone across provinces, theyâd need a lot more clout.â
Although he spoke lightly, his intention was not so.
It was just that at that moment, he couldnât suppress his anger and ended up embarrassing the son of a deputy mayor, dragging the deputy mayorâs reputation into it as well.
He had been feeling a bit depressed lately, and Li Zhaojunâs situation only added to his worries.
Wang Kaichen just happened to walk into the line of fire and deserved his bad luck.
âLetâs go,â Ye Fan said, reaching to take Shen Yanâs delicate hand and heading toward the door.
Her hand was firmly grasped by Ye Fan, and Shen Yan didnât resist.
However, at the doorway, she withdrew her hand, âBe careful of being spotted by the paparazzi.â
âOh, I almost forgot about that,â Ye Fan apologized.
Then, the two of them left Fashion Paris Leisure Hall side by side.
Down in the parking lot, since Ye Fan couldnât drive directly to Nahua Records to avoid being outed as Prisoner Two, he got into Shen Yanâs car.
As they drove away from the K11 Art Mall, Shen Yan apologized to Ye Fan in the car, âIâm sorry, Ye Fan, Iâve brought trouble upon you.â
âHeh, if trouble hadnât come, Wang Kaichen really wouldnât have been an issue,â Ye Fan laughed, âNot to mention that Iâm not in Hua Hai City anymore, even if I were, he couldnât do anything to me.
Heâs just a second-generation official; without his turf, heâs nothing.
I donât think youâd be afraid of him either, right?â
âI donât have to be afraid of him,â Shen Yan nodded.
Her work spanned the entire country, and her influence in the music industry even extended overseas.
Although Hua Hai City was the largest and most prosperous city in the country, it was just one of her many stops.
Even if Wang Kaichen held a grudge against her, he really couldnât do anything about her.
Furthermore, having known Ye Fan for so long, she had roughly guessed that Ye Fanâs identity was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.
The transformation from an office worker to a deputy director of a county police station indicated a significant background.
After half an hour, Ye Fan and Shen Yan arrived at Nahua Records without incident.
When getting out of the car, Ye Fan had naturally put on the mask of Prisoner Two, the wandering prisoner.
As Ye Fan appeared as Prisoner Two, people stopped in their tracks to watch and whispered to each other, âLook, Prisoner Two has shown up again!
We can probably expect new songs very soon.â
Ye Fan and Shen Yan heard some of the comments as well.
Shen Yan jokingly said in a low voice, âPrisoner Two, I never expected to be completely ignored when walking with you.â
âHeh, with my odd attire, how could I not draw attention?â Ye Fan said with a light smile.
They effortlessly made their way to a music studio where a band had been waiting for some time.
Since Ye Fan didnât have time to gradually sync up with the band, Shen Yan used a workaround: Ye Fan would record the new songs and send them to her.
She would then take them to Nahua Records for the band to practice in line with Ye Fanâs singing.
So, upon arriving at the music studio, Ye Fan only needed to rehearse with the band a couple of times before taking a short break and starting the official recording of the new songs.
After spending most of the day, including a direct lunch at the Nahua Records cafeteria, by three-thirty in the afternoon, the recording of two new songs was completed smoothly.
After the recording of the new songs, Ye Fan and Shen Yan left Nahua Records in a car.
A group of paparazzi had already arrived, eager to dig up Prisoner Twoâs real identity.
However, Ye Fan and Shen Yan used the same old tricks and successfully shook off the paparazzi following them after about an hour.
Meanwhile, as Ye Fan and Shen Yan were evading the paparazzi, Wang Kaichen had gotten in touch with An Qiye, and the two sat down face to face.
