She actually took the initiative to wrap her arm around Ye Feng's arm, half of her body pressing tightly against his. Ye Feng could even feel the soft and warm prominence pressing against his shoulder.

At the same time, Ye Feng also got a good look at the woman. She was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with large eyes, a high nose, a small mouth, and a face as smooth and lustrous as a goose egg.

She was very beautiful, a super beauty like Qin Yan. However, unlike Qin Yan's elegant and intellectual aura, she looked very capable and mature.

Ye Feng was looking at her, but she wasn't looking at him. Her gaze was fixed on something behind Ye Feng, her brows furrowed, looking somewhat nervous and annoyed.

Ye Feng felt something was off, so he used his spiritual sense to check behind him.

Ye Feng saw that a black extended limousine had appeared on the previously empty roadside. A middle-aged man, who was both black and fat, stood by the car door, his gaze fixed on Ye Feng and the woman. His expression was very unhappy, his face stern, and his eyes glaring, but he didn't come over.

The woman's head tilted slightly toward Ye Feng's body, and she whispered, "If you help me with a small favor, you won't have to apologize for tripping me earlier. If you help me, we'll be even. What do you say?"

When the woman spoke, Ye Feng could smell a strong scent of alcohol.

Ye Feng asked, "What kind of favor do you want me to do?"

"Very simple. Turn around and you'll see a black, fat man. This man is very annoying. To be honest, I really dislike him, but I can't offend him openly because I need something from him right now. So I want you to pretend to be my boyfriend for a while. When he comes over, you don't need to say anything, just nod or say yes. By the way, my name is Wu Xinghua, what's yours?"

Ye Feng subconsciously replied, "I'm Ye Feng."

"Great, Ye Feng, he's coming over. I'll borrow your arm. Remember what I said, just nod or say yes when he comes over."

Ye Feng found the situation both amusing and helpless. Accidentally tripping this woman, Wu Xinghua, had unexpectedly brought him a small but significant trouble.

Wu Xinghua's words clearly indicated that the black, fat man was her suitor, but she didn't like him. She wanted to use Ye Feng as a shield. Ye Feng didn't expect that a simple trip would lead to such a ridiculous situation, but since he had tripped her, he couldn't refuse her request.

Since that was the case, he might as well help. After all, she had said he wouldn't have to say anything, just stand there as a shield.

Ye Feng turned around and looked at the black, fat man, who was glaring at him with anger and jealousy, as if he wanted to eat Ye Feng alive.

The black, fat man spoke first.

"Xinghua, I thought I was seeing things, but it really is you."

"Mr. Zhao, why are you here? Could it be that you were following me?"

"No, how could I follow you? I just felt that you had quite a bit to drink tonight and was worried about you."

"Well, thank you for your concern, Mr. Zhao. But I'm already at my doorstep, and my boyfriend has come to pick me up. You can go back with peace of mind now."

After saying this, Wu Xinghua let go of Ye Feng's arm and wrapped her arm around his waist. This made Ye Feng feel somewhat awkward, but also secretly pleased. It was the first time in his life that a super beauty had hugged him so intimately.

Ye Feng felt secretly pleased, but the black, fat man was clearly not. His glare at Ye Feng had turned into a furious stare.

"Xinghua, is he really your boyfriend? I've never heard of you having a boyfriend before."

Wu Xinghua laughed. To make the black, fat man give up, she kissed Ye Feng on the cheek, saying, "Mr. Zhao, what do you mean? Do I have to announce it to everyone that I have a boyfriend?"

"Oh, oh... that's not it, it's just... how could you have a boyfriend?" The anger on Mr. Zhao's face slowly turned to disappointment, and he stopped glaring at Ye Feng.

"Mr. Zhao, I'm in my thirties. Is it impossible for a woman in her thirties to have a boyfriend? My boyfriend and I have known each other for almost two years, and we plan to get married by the end of this year or early next year, right, Ye Feng?"

Ye Feng was still recovering from the sudden kiss and was surprised by her statement that she was in her thirties. From any angle, Ye Feng couldn't tell that she was in her thirties.

While he was still dazed, Ye Feng suddenly felt a pinch on his lower back. He realized that Wu Xinghua had been asking him a question.

Ye Feng quickly nodded and said, "Yes, yes."

After saying this, Ye Feng's face turned a bit red, not because of excitement or nervousness, but because he felt he hadn't performed well and hadn't cooperated well with Wu Xinghua.

Hopefully, the black, fat man wouldn't notice anything.

Fortunately, the black, fat man just sighed, seemingly not noticing anything amiss.

Wu Xinghua's hand on Ye Feng's lower back didn't let go but twisted a couple of times, reminding him not to zone out again.

Wu Xinghua seemed to want to leave the awkward atmosphere, so she took Ye Feng's hand, smiled at Mr. Zhao, and said, "Mr. Zhao, it's late. My boyfriend and I will go home now. You should also go back to your hotel and rest. I hope tomorrow's authorization ceremony goes smoothly."

Mr. Zhao's disappointed expression disappeared, and he looked very serious, his eyes filled with challenge and contempt as he looked at Ye Feng.

Yes, Ye Feng could feel the challenge and contempt in his eyes, the same look he had seen in Liu Yong's eyes, the police officers who beat him, and Daoge's eyes.

"Since that's the case, Ms. Wu, I won't disturb your rest. However, I may not be able to attend tomorrow's authorization signing ceremony."

As soon as the black, fat man said this, Ye Feng could feel Wu Xinghua's body tremble, and the arm that had been loosely around his waist suddenly tightened.

"Mr. Zhao, what do you mean? We agreed in front of Mayor Liang tonight that the authorization signing ceremony would be held tomorrow, and Mayor Liang will attend and speak. If you don't come, how can the ceremony proceed?"

"Ms. Wu, don't you understand what I mean? I won't be too blunt in front of your young boyfriend, but you should understand. Either you come with me tonight, and I guarantee the signing ceremony will proceed as planned, and I won't even charge you the authorization fee. Or you go home with your young boyfriend, and I'll fly back to Jiangsu Province early tomorrow morning. You can find other partners, but if you do, I must warn you, the impact on your company's market reputation will be significant if you lose this deal."

Looking at the black, fat man's arrogant demeanor, even though Ye Feng didn't know the exact relationship between him and Wu Xinghua or what leverage he had, it didn't change his increasingly negative impression of the man. A man should be responsible and keep his promises.

This black, fat man was clearly not such a man.

Wu Xinghua seemed to be furious, her teeth biting her lower lip, her body trembling slightly.

The black, fat man, however, suddenly burst into laughter, looking very pleased and arrogant.

Wu Xinghua suddenly let go of Ye Feng's waist, pointed at the black, fat man, and angrily said, "Zhao Chunnan, I, Wu Xinghua, don't believe you. I'll tell you right now, within a year, I will establish a new brand. Now, get lost! Even if you beg me to sign that damn agreement, I won't. Get lost, get lost now!"

Hearing Wu Xinghua's words and seeing her angry expression, Ye Feng felt a sense of satisfaction.

Now it was the black, fat man's turn to tremble, clearly enraged. He pointed at Wu Xinghua and stammered, "Fine, fine, Wu Xinghua, you can do it. I'll wait for the day your company goes bankrupt, I'll wait for you..."

"Wait, wait your damn ass, get lost, you old pervert! Look at your ugly, fat pig face. Just because you have some money and a recently inherited family business, you think you can take advantage of me? I spit on you! The world will keep turning without you. I've been looking at you with disgust for a long time. If it weren't for Mayor Liang, I would have slapped you at the dinner table tonight."

The black, fat man's face turned even darker with anger. He wanted to say something but, seeing Wu Xinghua standing with her hands on her hips, he ultimately said nothing, swung his arm, glared at Ye Feng, and walked away.
