It turns out that the hero saving the beauty is only so admirable and worshipped in movies.
In reality, Xiaofan couldn't beat them. Fortunately, the other side had no ill intentions towards him, otherwise, failing to be a hero would turn him into a fool. Besides, that girl seemed quite short, probably not considered a beauty anyway?
Back at his second uncle's house, he happened to bump into Ye Weiwei driving out of the garage.
Although he knew his second uncle made money in business, Xiaofan originally thought they were just quite well-off. Only after arriving at his second uncle's house did he realize how extravagantly well-off they really were.
Ye Weiwei drove a Beetle, a Volkswagen import. Last year's new model, which should be priced around three hundred thousand. Even if Xiaofan's father, Ye Dashan, worked hard all year without eating or spending on anything else, it would take him three years to barely buy this car.
He really couldn't figure out what his dad was thinking, having such a wealthy brother, why did he still have to work so hard?
"Sis, are you heading out?" Xiaofan proactively greeted Ye Weiwei.
"Hmm." Ye Weiwei snorted, originally not intending to pay attention to Xiaofan. But suddenly, as if remembering something, she said to Xiaofan, "Hey, jump in, I'll show you around."
"Ah? You'll take me?" Xiaofan thought he misheard and couldn't help asking.
"Yes, didn't my mom say today to help you get familiar with the surrounding roads, so you won't get lost next time." Ye Weiwei said softly with a smile.
"Wouldn't this interfere with your evening plans?" It was quite strange, considering how she seemed annoyed with him upon his arrival, yet tonight she was so kind to offer to take him out?
"No, get on, come on."
"Well, thanks then."
He had nothing better to do anyway, and if the other person sincerely wanted to handle their relationship well, Xiaofan naturally wouldn't oppose it.
The car felt light as it moved on the road, but it was evident Ye Weiwei was still a novice driver. Her driving skills weren't very smooth yet.
"Hey, how much does your third uncle give you for living expenses every month?" Ye Weiwei suddenly asked.
"Hmm, during high school, I got fifteen hundred a month. But this time the enrollment notice mentioned half my tuition could be waived, so my dad sent me eight thousand, of which six thousand is for tuition." Xiaofan didn't tell his father about the money he got from Ouyang Xiong. After all, suddenly having a million and getting involved with the underworld would naturally cause concern. So, everything continued as before, following the usual routine.
"Only two thousand a month? That's not even enough for me to buy two outfits." Ye Weiwei shot a dismissive glance, her eyes darting somewhat aimlessly, possibly lost in thought.
The car stopped in front of an entertainment venue.
"Sis, do you usually frequent places like this?" Seeing the neon-lit sign, Xiaofan couldn't help frowning.
"What? Never been to a place like this? Come on, I'll show you the world." After locking the car, Ye Weiwei strode inside.
"Miss Ye, why so late tonight? It's bustling inside this evening."
"Oh really? I brought a friend today, that's why I'm late. Hey, Xiaofan, hurry up."
"Oh, coming." Xiaofan responded and followed inside.
Upon entering the entertainment venue, the ground floor was a disbar. Ye Weiwei bypassed the bar counter, heading straight for the elevator, clearly not fond of the noise there.
The second floor was much quieter, lacking the boisterous DJs. The guests here seemed different from those downstairs. Their attire was far more glamorous than those on the first floor.
"Hey, Weiwei, over here, over here. Late again as usual, penalty of three drinks." As soon as she reached the second floor, a voice called out from a distance.
Looking in the direction of the voice, more than a dozen men and women sat on a stylish sofa together.
"Penalty my ass, got stuck in traffic. Let me introduce my brother, Ye Xiaofan." Ye Weiwei casually pulled a chair and sat down, motioning Xiaofan to sit beside her.
"Your brother? Since when did you have a brother? Shaolong's already on the third floor. Is he an illegitimate child of your dad?" A slightly effeminate-looking guy joked.
"Illegitimate your sis. He's my third uncle's son, here for college at Mingyuan this year." Ye Weiwei continued.
"Hello everyone." Xiaofan greeted everyone.
"Mingyuan? Haha… Mingyuan."
Upon hearing Xiaofan attending Mingyuan, everyone's interest in him immediately vanished. Is going to a regular college that disdainful?
"By the way, what's up tonight?" Ye Weiwei inquired, "So many people here."
"Hehe, tonight's prize money went up by fifty thousand. So, everyone came for that prize money. Besides, rumor has it there's a special service for the winner." A man chuckled sinisterly.
"Special service? Fifty thousand?" Hearing this, Ye Weiwei suddenly felt uneasy.
"Weiwei, come over here." Sure enough, as soon as the unease settled in, someone called her name from behind.
Curious, Xiaofan turned his head and saw a woman dressed in sleek, black, sexy attire, standing out from the other women with her exceptionally exquisite features and short hair.
"This is bad." Ye Weiwei murmured quietly, then stood up, "Xiaofan, just follow me and agree with whatever I say later. Don't say anything unnecessary."
"Ah? Oh." Xiaofan didn't understand what was happening but followed obediently.
The three of them took the elevator to the fourth floor. The short-haired woman seemed slightly surprised to see Xiaofan tagging along, but didn't comment.
The elevator stopped at the fourth floor. The short-haired woman led them to a private room and closed the door.
"Didn't I tell you not to seek me out anymore? This fifty thousand in additional prize money was used as bait, wasn't it? Chen Mei'Er, what's the point of these tricks? We're already over." As soon as the door shut, Ye Weiwei spoke sharply to the short-haired woman.
As these words came out, Xiaofan was momentarily stunned. What on earth? Did he hear wrong or see wrong?
"Weiwei, we once promised to spend our lives together. How can you end things just like that? You know I can't live without you?" Chen Mei'Er looked at Ye Weiwei with teary eyes, the grief on her face clearly not feigned.
"I found it fun at first and just played along with you. Now that time's passed, it's no longer fun, so I'm done. Look, this is my boyfriend. Don't bother me anymore."
What? Boyfriend? Is this a joke? Xiaofan stared at Ye Weiwei pointing at him, nearly spitting out his soda. This big sis wasn't lying when she said she'd show him the world, and what a world it was.
