Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Huang Ruobing wasn’t an indecisive character. Once she decided to collaborate with Ye Yang, she immediately became more intimate with Ye Yang on a surface level. It was like both of them had been lovers for a very long time now.

Ye Yang was left speechless by this. He wasn’t expecting Huang Ruobing to execute this collaboration so effectively. Before he could figure out Huang Ruobing’s train of thought, both of them had left Jiangdu Building hand-in-hand, and were now dining at a classy restaurant in the city center.

Ye Yang couldn’t help but be amazed at how easily Huang Ruobing changed her facade. As expected, women were versatile, just like a chameleon.

Their seat inside the restaurant wasn’t considered secluded. Quite the contrary actually, as it was the most eye-catching spot of all. In addition to Huang Ruobing being a well-known character, many people began staring at the couple.

“Many people are looking at us right now.”

Ye Yang’s table manners were quite elegant. Initially, Huang Ruobing was worried that they might embarrass themselves at a place like this but Ye Yang was able to play the role of a perfect boyfriend. It was also this reason that Huang Ruobing could gradually unwind. The two began acting more intimately like an actual couple who was deeply in love with each other.

This restaurant was actually quite a trendy place in the city. As they both ate, Huang Ruobing bumped into quite a few acquaintances of hers. All these people knew of Huang Ruobing and He Dong’s engagement. They were also familiar with He Dong on a personal basis so now, more eyes were looking their way.

“You’re not scared, are you?” Huang Ruobing was quite relaxed by now. She was even poking fun at Ye Yang. As the instigator of all this, she naturally knew that Ye Yang wouldn’t be afraid.

“Why would I be? There’s a saying that if I die under a skirt, I can still flirt as a ghost.” Ye Yang didn’t mind Huang Ruobing’s borderline challenging comment.

Huang Ruobing never thought Ye Yang would still tease her at a time like this. Without another word, she stuffed a spoonful of food into Ye Yang’s mouth. “Let’s see how you talk with this.”

Their interaction had no doubt been witnessed by many, and in the public’s eye, these two were merely flirting with each other. However, nosy people wouldn’t just stop at watching with their eyes. Soon, someone came over to talk to Huang Ruobing. “Ruobing, it’s been so long. Are you dining with your friend?”

Both individuals were considered influential figures in their own circle so even if they wanted to pry, their choice of words had to be free of fault. That way, no one would get offended explicitly.

These tricky conversations were something Huang Ruobing was used to. She put on an equally polite smile and said, “Indeed it has been a long time since we last met. I’m dining with my boyfriend.”

“Oh, if that’s so, I hope I won’t bother you two spending quality time with each other.” This person was mildly startled, surprised by how effortlessly Huang Ruobing admitted her relationship with Ye Yang. Before leaving, this person remained courteous and greeted Ye Yang as well.

No matter how blind they were, they could tell that Ye Yang was an extraordinary character so they wouldn’t easily attempt to offend him.

Also, there were barely any secrets among their circle. Once a few people had talked to Huang Ruobing, the whole community basically found out that she now had a boyfriend.

Many of them knew about Huang Ruobing’s engagement to He Dong so this became a source of entertainment for them. Although this incident had stirred up turbulent waves, the two people in the center of this gossip remained unfazed.

“You said something about my little brother being in danger before. How did you know?”

“If there’s something I want to know, I’ll definitely get answers. Huang Xudong is currently in a life-threatening situation. Someone’s going for his life!”

“Just what on earth is going on? Explain it clearly.” Huang Ruobing immediately became serious. She was clearly concerned because she only had this one little brother. Still, it came as a surprise how Ye Yang, whom she had only met today, knew so much.

Nonetheless, Huang Ruobing was worried about Huang Xudong’s current predicament.

“Huang Xudong has been doing great in Riverside these past few years and his monopoly over the entire entertainment industry is near its completion. But how come it was all smooth-sailing for him? Did you merely assume that it was because of the Huang family? In Riverside Club, he had been making illegal arrangements for authority figures while exploiting this as a weakness to threaten the same people to get where he is today.”

Huang Ruobing was stunned. Although she had no idea if this was true or not, upon seeing Ye Yang’s grave expression, she subconsciously chose to believe him.

If this was the case, Huang Xudong was truly in danger. To do this once or twice would have been fine, but over and over again? Those authority figures weren’t pushovers.

And so, Huang Ruobing began contemplating on the solution to this trouble.

“Young Master.”

Meanwhile, on He Dong’s end, his plane had just arrived at the airport.

He Dong had been wearing a smile earlier, but when he saw the news in his hand, his face darkened.

Within their circle, where there were people who were acquainted with Huang Ruobing, naturally, there would be people who were acquainted with He Dong. News of Huang Ruobing having a boyfriend soon reached He Dong’s ears.

Although no one dared to directly approach He Dong to inform him about this, it wasn’t too difficult for him to find out about the truth. At the thought of how this was probably known throughout their community, He Dong couldn’t help but flare up in anger.

Sensing a pressuring aura, the old man who was following behind He Dong became cautious.

Although the people around him were completely expressionless, He Dong inadvertently imagined that they were laughing at him on the inside. And thus, he could no longer maintain his gentlemanly ways.

It required his lifetime’s worth of education to prevent himself from misbehaving in public. Still, he said to his assistant, “You have ten minutes to locate Huang Ruobing’s whereabouts.”

Without a word, the assistant began the search.

In fact, this wasn’t a difficult task at all since Huang Ruobing didn’t try to conceal her traces. By doing this, she was basically admitting to the public her relationship with Ye Yang.

By the time He Dong got into the car, he was aware of the couple’s location. Without needing his orders, the assistant simply drove toward the restaurant where Huang Ruobing was having a lunch date.
