Chapter 16

At 5 PM, on the third floor of the Si Hai Chamber of Commerce, in the President's office.

Ye Fei sat in the boss's chair, eating a chilled watermelon while surveying the room, looking calm and composed as if this were his territory.

After a fierce battle, Ye Fei did not feel tired, only refreshed.

The fire brought by the ginseng fruit had finally stopped tormenting him.

Across from him sat several female secretaries of the Si Hai Chamber of Commerce.

They were nervously serving Ye Fei tea, cutting watermelon, and shelling sunflower seeds.

They had all witnessed Ye Fei's battle, starting with disdain and contempt, only to be thoroughly defeated by him.

Now, they only felt admiration and flattery towards Ye Fei.

If Ye Fei needed anything, they would be ready to throw themselves at him.

Ye Fei paid little attention to them, his gaze falling on the Guan Gong saber in the corner.

This was an ancient three-meter-long saber, hanging on the wall, its blade gleaming and incredibly sharp.

Ye Fei could see several threads of red light entwined around it.

That was blood qi.

"Brother Ye, Huang Dongqiang and a few others escaped through the back door during our fight."

At this moment, Huang Zhendong ran in from the doorway, wiping the sweat from his forehead: "But don't worry, I'll send people to catch them right away."

Today's battle was started by Huang Dongqiang, so Huang Zhendong naturally wanted to capture him to give an account to Ye Fei. Otherwise, he might lose his head.

Moreover, he truly resented Huang Dongqiang. What a waste of a visit, someone who could be crushed with a pinch, yet ended up with the entire chamber being defeated by Ye Fei.

"Forget it, don't catch them. I'll deal with them myself."

Ye Fei thought for a moment and decided to temporarily let Huang Dongqiang go, not out of mercy, but because he wanted to see Huang Dongqiang suffer and die from liver cancer.

Rumor had it that people in the late stages of liver cancer lived like ghosts.

Ye Fei was a bit curious to see whether Yuan Jing would continue to protect Huang Dongqiang when she found out about his liver cancer, or turn her back on him.

"Understood, understood."

Huang Zhendong had no objections and immediately canceled the order to pursue Huang Dongqiang: "Brother Ye is truly magnanimous and virtuous, repaying evil with kindness."

Ye Fei took a bite of watermelon: "Cut the crap, pay up quickly."

"Yes, yes."

Huang Zhendong raised his voice and shouted out the door: "Is the finance and legal team ready?

Brother Ye has been waiting too long."

Soon, a young woman entered the room and handed a file folder to Huang Zhendong.

"Brother Ye, this is a check for two million. We will pay off the debt to Chunfeng Clinic in one go."

"Brother Ye, this is the contract for our cooperation with Chunfeng Clinic over the next three years."

Huang Zhendong laid out the contents of the file folder in front of Ye Fei: "Please review it."

Ye Fei chewed on the watermelon: "What's the meaning of this?"

Huang Zhendong bowed and nodded: "It was our fault to owe you, and we troubled Brother Ye, so we want to make it up to Chunfeng Clinic."

"You don't need to worry; we won't owe you again. We are also prepared to prepay ten million."

He took out a check and placed it in the contract: "We hope to continue our cooperation."

Although Ye Fei thought Huang Zhendong was not a good person, with the ten million prepaid, there was no need to worry about him defaulting.

"Alright, I'll take the check and the contract back."

Ye Fei said calmly: "But the final decision will be up to my mother-in-law."

"Understood, understood."

Huang Zhendong's smile became even brighter when he saw Ye Fei take it. He handed over a watch box: "Brother Ye, this is the latest Rolex."

"Strangers become friends after a fight. Consider this a small token of our respect and our sincerity."

He respectfully placed the watch in front of Ye Fei.

"Rolex?"

Ye Fei glanced at it indifferently: "It won't do me any good."

He was just a son-in-law, having to mop the floor, cook, and clean the toilet every day. Wearing a Rolex would be out of place.

Moreover, with his status, wearing a Rolex would only invite ridicule for being vain and wearing a fake to show off.

"Brother Ye, you must accept it. We were the ones who wronged you first, and we should show our apologies."

Huang Zhendong knelt down with a thud: "If you don't accept it, we won't feel at ease, always thinking you haven't forgiven us."

"Moreover, this Rolex was given to me by Huang Dongqiang. Now, giving it to Brother Ye as a trophy is only right."

"Please do us the honor and accept it."

The female secretaries and key members also pleaded with Ye Fei to accept it.

Huang Zhendong was indeed a remarkable person.

Ye Fei had initially looked down on him, but now he marveled at his ability to bend and stretch, a quality that many lacked.

After injuring five hundred people from the Si Hai Chamber of Commerce, Huang Zhendong did not seek revenge but instead tried to befriend him, which was rare.

"Alright, since you've said so much, I'll accept the Rolex."

Ye Fei helped Huang Zhendong up: "I won't take advantage of you."

"This Guan Gong saber is an inauspicious object."

Ye Fei pointed: "You'd better get rid of it, or you'll soon face a bloody disaster."

Taking a Rolex worth hundreds of thousands, Ye Fei felt it was only right to warn Huang Zhendong.

The Guan Gong saber looked old, but it still emitted a faint aura of killing intent.

Moreover, the sharp tip of the saber was directly pointing at Huang Zhendong's chair.

Being constantly surrounded by killing intent and facing the tip of the saber would greatly harm Huang Zhendong's fortune.

Fortunately, the Guan Gong saber had only been placed there recently; otherwise, Huang Zhendong might have already been dead.

"Blood disaster?"

Huang Zhendong was slightly taken aback, then looked at the Guan Gong saber: "Brother Ye, this is a high-quality replica. I liked its appearance, so I bought it for ten thousand and put it up."

"It shouldn't be inauspicious, right?"

Although Huang Zhendong worshipped Guan Gong, he did not truly believe in such things, so he did not take Ye Fei's words seriously.

To him, feng shui and divination were purely self-comforting and had no substantial meaning.

Moreover, he thought that the blood disaster Ye Fei mentioned was just a mockery of today's battle.

Besides, other brothers and even Mr. Du worshipped Guan Gong and had Guan Gong sabers, yet they did not face any blood disaster.

If it weren't for Ye Fei's performance in the afternoon, he would have suspected Ye Fei of being a con artist.

Ye Fei said calmly: "It's still better to get rid of it."

Huang Zhendong nodded quickly: "Thank you for the reminder, Brother Ye. I'll throw it away soon."

Ye Fei could hear the敷衍 (perfunctory) tone in Huang Zhendong's voice and did not say anything more. He picked up a piece of paper and a pen and quickly drew a Taiji talisman to ward off disasters.

"Wear it, and it will save your life once."

After saying that, he left the office... Huang Zhendong looked at the Taiji talisman, smiled without comment, and casually threw it into the trash can.

Ye Fei was skilled, he admitted, but this divination was purely feudal superstition.

He was a college graduate who had studied Marxism-Leninism.

A few minutes later, Huang Zhendong, with one arm hanging, went downstairs to go to Zhonghai Hospital with a few key members for treatment.

As he was going down the stairs, he suddenly slipped and rolled down, hitting his head and opening a wound.

Before he could stand up and curse, the chandelier above him fell with a crash.

If his subordinates had not pushed him away in time, Huang Zhendong would have been seriously injured.

Even so, he was covered in glass shards, leaving him bloodied.

At the entrance, the disheveled Huang Zhendong was about to get into the car when it suddenly burst into flames... Huang Zhendong and his confidants looked at each other, seeing uncertainty in each other's eyes: Could what Ye Fei said be true?

"符啊，符啊……" The next second, Huang Zhendong rushed back to the office, overturned the trash can to find the Taiji talisman...
