Chapter 87 - Calm as If

The venue for this charity gala was the Elegant Pavilion Hotel.The Elegant Pavilion Hotel is a five-star hotel and is considered high-class in Capital City.

For today’s charity event, the entire Elegant Pavilion Hotel had been booked.

Seeing that it was almost time, Ye Chenfeng took a taxi to the entrance of the Elegant Pavilion Hotel.

Tonight, next to the entrance of the hotel, the parking spaces were filled exclusively with luxury cars worth millions.

Ye Chenfeng, who had arrived by taxi, was a unique sight, hence all eyes were on him.

Ye Chenfeng shrugged indifferently and prepared to walk into the Elegant Pavilion Hotel when a security guard at the entrance blocked his way.

Although Ye Chenfeng was dressed reasonably well, who would take a taxi to a gala?

Tonight’s attendees were all prominent figures from Capital City.

“Sir, the Elegant Pavilion Hotel has been booked for a private event tonight, and unauthorized individuals cannot enter,” the security guard said arrogantly, his tone even laced with disdain.

Ye Chenfeng, who had encountered such look-down-their-nose types before, saw no need to argue with the guard.

He pulled out his invitation from his pocket and handed it over, asking, “Do you think I can go in now?”

Upon seeing the invitation, the guard’s confidence instantly deflated, and he thought to himself, “Why didn’t you show the invitation earlier?

You’re making me look foolish.

Do rich people nowadays prefer taking taxis?”

While thinking this, the guard quickly said, “Please come in, come in.”

The charity gala was taking place in the large hall on the second floor of the Elegant Pavilion Hotel.

By the time Ye Chenfeng entered it, the hall was already bustling, filled with people dressed to impress.

On the surface, everyone was polite, but Ye Chenfeng knew the high society crowd could be quite despicable behind the scenes!

Zhao Wanting’s father, Zhao Qihua, was already there, and Fang Nanxiang followed close beside him.

“Chenfeng, you’re here!” Zhao Qihua hurriedly greeted him as he approached.

After all, Ye Chenfeng had saved his life, and cultivating a relationship with a Divine Doctor like Ye Chenfeng was something he greatly desired.

Evidently, he was still unaware of the relationship between his daughter and Ye Chenfeng.

“Uncle Zhao, you look well!

I trust your recovery is going smoothly?” Ye Chenfeng asked politely.

Zhao Qihua nodded repeatedly, responding, “Thanks to you, Chenfeng!

Without you, this old bag of bones would have crossed the great divide by now.

By the way, Chenfeng, I’ve heard about Nan Xiang’s situation.

It’s good for him to follow you and strike out on his own.

I know he has contributed a lot to our Zhaos over the years.”

“Chairman, please don’t say that.

If the Zhaos ever need my help, I will come back immediately to assist,” Fang Nanxiang quickly interjected from the side.

“Nan Xiang, I understand your intention.

Alright, you two have a chat first!

I need to go and greet the other guests,” said Zhao Qihua.

Tonight’s charity event was co-hosted by the Zhaos and several other business families, so Zhao Qihua was practically a host himself and had to say hello to the many guests attending the gala.

“Mr.

Ye, rest assured, in about two days, I’ll have everything regarding the Zhaos in order,” Fang Nanxiang said with great respect, admiring both Ye Chenfeng’s medical skills and impressive physical abilities.

Ye Chenfeng hurriedly waved his hands and said, “Brother Fang, can you stop calling me Mr.

Ye from now on?

Choose a different title!

Also, there’s no rush to deal with the Zhaos’ matters; take your time, and there is no hurry to train the Dragon Tooth Association either!”

“Everything will be as Young Master Ye wishes.” Fang Nanxiang finally changed the title from “Mr.

Ye” to “Young Master Ye.” Although Ye Chenfeng still felt a bit uncomfortable with it, it was undoubtedly better than “Mr.

Ye,” so he went along with Fang Nanxiang.

“Chenfeng, you’re already here!” Zhao Wanting had just walked into the second-floor hall when she spotted Ye Chenfeng.

She quickly approached and took his arm, ready to introduce him to Bai Xueling and the other girl.

She had even planned to publicly announce her relationship with Ye Chenfeng in front of her parents today!

When Ye Chenfeng turned around and saw Bai Xueling, his face froze for a moment before regaining its composure.

As the saying goes, life is full of unexpected encounters!

Ye Chenfeng and Bai Xueling were only fiancés in name.

He had no illusions about the Capital City’s number one beauty and calmly looked at Bai Xueling, saying, “What a coincidence!”

Bai Xueling’s entire face changed color when she saw Ye Chenfeng, and she asked incredulously, “What’s going on?

You’re Wanting’s boyfriend?”

Zhao Wanting realized something was wrong.

Did Ye Chenfeng and Bai Xueling know each other?

Could it be that this Ye Chenfeng was Bai Xueling’s fiancé, Ye Chenfeng?

But that would be a significant departure from the rumors, wouldn’t it?

Just as Zhao Wanting was about to speak, Zhou Ting, who stood beside Bai Xueling, couldn’t stay quiet. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NoᴠᴇFɪre.nᴇt

She held a grudge against Ye Chenfeng!

Back at the medical equipment store in Capital City, her cousin Zhou Jue’an had an embarrassing accident in front of Bai Xueling, and she learned from her cousin that it was Ye Chenfeng’s doing.

However, Zhou Ting now looked at the handsome Ye Chenfeng in front of her, who didn’t look like someone with an anxiety disorder at all—in fact, he seemed even more normal than most!

“Ye Chenfeng, you shameless man, don’t forget that you’re still engaged to Xueling!

How could you be flirting with other women?” Zhou Ting’s abrupt words made everyone nearby hear, and in an instant, countless gazes were focused on them.

Bai Xueling grabbed Zhou Ting’s arm and said, “Tingting, don’t talk nonsense.

We can talk about whatever it is later.” Bai Xueling, true to her upbringing in a prominent family, knew it was inappropriate to have such a conversation in this setting.

Zhou Ting, as if she had made up her mind, dissatisfiedly said, “Xueling, it’s just as well.

After all, Ye Chenfeng is nowhere near worthy of you.” Zhou Ting wanted to see Ye Chenfeng publicly humiliated before she would let it go.

Yet Ye Chenfeng looked completely composed, which greatly irritated Zhou Ting.

She turned her anger towards Zhao Wanting and said, “I guess you’ve always wanted to seduce this idiot Ye Chenfeng, haven’t you?

The two of you actually make quite a matched pair.”

Zhao Wanting’s beautiful eyes were already red, and when Zhou Ting spoke those words, tears burst forth from Zhao Wanting’s eyes like water from an opened tap.

Seeing Zhao Wanting with tears in her eyes infuriated Ye Chenfeng; Zhou Ting was the kind of woman who disgusted him.

Although he never hit women, he decided to make an exception tonight.

However, just as he was about to swing his palm, he heard a loud “slap” resonate.
