Chapter 154: The Assassination of Chen Liang
When Huang Shan received no response from Ye Feng, she gave him a forceful shove. As the car swayed, her slender hand pushed directly against Ye Feng’s lower body, instantly causing him to wince with pleasure. Having already been aroused by the enchanting, delicate fragrance emanating from Huang Shan, Ye Feng was suddenly subjected to such an assault. As a soldier with razor-sharp reflexes, how could he possibly fail to react?
"Um, Ye Feng, what is this? Are you carrying something good?" In truth, Huang Shan was not entirely drunk. Suddenly finding herself losing her balance and accidentally slamming her hand right against Ye Feng’s lower body, her heart began to flutter wildly like a trapped fawn. Feeling both shy and flustered, she had no choice but to pretend to be drunk.
Hearing Huang Shan’s sweet, intoxicating voice, Ye Feng’s interest grew all the more intense. Yet, since they were currently in a moving car, he could hardly take her right then and there. With great difficulty, he replied faintly, "Th-this is nothing. Sister Shan, you—you should sit properly!" Speaking proved exceptionally arduous; one only needed to imagine it to understand Ye Feng’s predicament.
Huang Shan seemed to snap out of her daze, quickly pulling her hand back from Ye Feng’s arm and anxiously asking, "What—what is wrong with me?" The mere thought that she had just accidentally touched the terrifying bulge beneath Ye Feng made her pretty face flush like a ripe red apple, so rosy and tender that one couldn't help but want to take a bite.
"N-nothing at all. Oh right, Sister Shan, when do you plan to sign the contract with Emerging Real Estate?" Since Sister Shan refused to dwell on that topic, Ye Feng naturally hastened to change the subject and chat with her about something else. Otherwise, if she remembered being held tightly in his arms just now, a full-scale world war might break out inside this tiny car once again.
"That’s not certain yet, but it should be sometime in the next few days. According to our previous agreement, President Chen needs to thoroughly inspect the company before deciding on the investment amount," Huang Shan said with a gentle smile. Once this collaboration with Emerging Real Estate succeeded, the real estate market in the provincial capital would undoubtedly become the territory of the Huang Family Group.
"I see. Then for this period, let's proceed according to our original plan. If Sister Shan encounters any issues, remember to call me immediately!" Ye Feng said with a lecherous smile. If Sister Shan happened to be having her period or anything of the sort, she must let him know at once; he had a wealth of experience in buying sanitary napkins and would certainly provide top-tier service. Of course, if Sister Shan ever needed help pulling down her pants to use the restroom, he would be more than happy to assist as well.
"Alright, that won't be a problem at all. Most of the time, I'll be either at the villa or in the office, so things should be fine!" Huang Shan giggled. The mere thought that she would be able to commute to and from work with Ye Feng every single day sent a surge of inexplicable excitement through her heart.
"Well, commuting is one thing, but what about other times? Are you sure there won't be any trouble, Sister Shan? Why don't I send a few of my brothers over to protect you?" Ye Feng pondered aloud. After all, Huang Shan’s safety was his utmost concern; even if it meant shattering his body into pieces, he could never allow her to suffer the slightest harm.
Hearing Ye Feng express such deep concern warmed Huang Shan’s heart with sweetness. She offered a radiant smile and said, "There's no need. The security system at home is quite good. As long as I'm inside the house, I have nothing to worry about!" Huang Shan said with a smile, knowing the Huang Family villa was virtually flawless within the provincial capital.
Upon escorting Huang Shan back to the Huang Family villa, Ye Feng initially intended to accompany her inside to share a tender moment before leaving. However, as if she could see right through his intentions, Huang Shan directly rejected his kind offer and instructed her subordinates to drive Ye Feng back to the Regal Hotel.
Watching the car fade into the distance, Huang Shan could not help but shake her head inwardly. How could she possibly fail to love a man as outstanding as Ye Feng? It was simply because of her own circumstances that she could not bear to hurt him. "I'm sorry, Ye Feng. I hope you can understand Sister Shan's hidden hardships!"
Of course, Ye Feng remained entirely oblivious to all of this. Upon returning to the Regal Hotel, he bid a polite farewell with a faint smile to the driver who had brought him back, then walked straight up to the room where Chen Liang was staying. Seeing Ye Feng return, Chen Liang began to feel at ease, and they immediately began discussing his upcoming schedule.
To the various issues raised by Chen Liang, Ye Feng naturally raised no objections. At the same time, he meticulously formulated plans, determined to properly safeguard Chen Liang. After all, Chen Liang’s sole purpose for this trip was to cooperate with the Huang Family Group; if anything were to go wrong because of the partnership, who would ever dare cooperate with the Huang Family Group again?
"Alright, our subsequent work will roughly proceed along these lines. Please rest assured, President Chen, our Xingfeng Security Company swears to protect your safety with our lives," Ye Feng declared boldly. President Chen nodded in appreciation, thinking to himself that his judgment of character had indeed been spot-on.
"Knock, knock!" Just at that moment, a series of knocks echoed out, instantly heightening everyone's vigilance. In particular, Chen Liang's five bodyguards immediately went on high alert, preparing to shield Chen Liang from harm at the slightest sign of trouble.
Chen Liang chuckled softly. "Don't be so tense, everyone. I specifically ordered some takeout for a late-night snack, haha!" Seeing the cautious expressions on everyone's faces, Chen Liang laughed and walked over to open the door himself. However, Ye Feng quickly stopped him, gesturing that he would handle it instead. Chen Liang nodded.
Peering through the peephole, Ye Feng saw a young man with ordinary features waiting anxiously outside, pacing back and forth from time to time. Ye Feng also scanned the surrounding corridor and, finding nothing amiss, slowly unlocked the door. The young man asked very politely, "Excuse me, did someone here order room service?"
"Yes, come on in!" Ye Feng said with a faint smile. He immediately stepped close to Chen Liang so that if the visitor launched a sudden assault, he could instantly shove Chen Liang down and shield him, while simultaneously signaling the others to stay on guard.
"Sir, here are the items you requested!" the young man said with a slight bow and a smile, slowly placing the items in his hands onto the table. Chen Liang smiled warmly. "Thank you, young man. Sorry to trouble you!" As Chen Liang spoke, Ye Feng kept a close eye on the visitor’s eyes, suddenly sensing that something was terribly wrong.
"Watch out!" Ye Feng roared in alarm, instantly tackling Chen Liang to the floor. At that exact moment, a gunshot rang out. Chu Yun and the others also hit the deck immediately; facing someone armed with deadly hardware, none of them dared to be reckless. Realizing his initial ambush had failed, the young man unleashed a barrage of gunfire toward the spot where Ye Feng had just fallen.
The moment the young man's gunshot shattered the silence, the hurried sound of footsteps echoed from outside the hallway. More than a dozen masked men burst through the doorway, slamming the heavy door shut behind them. Peering from the corner of the sofa, Chu Yun and his companions stared in utter astonishment. What on earth was going on here?
