Although more than a hundred brothers were laughing, there wasn't a single one who didn't admire Ye Xiaofan. They were all part of the plan this time and knew that Xiaofan had successfully rescued someone, earning their admiration.

Now, they were even more impressed by the fact that Xiaofan was facing the difficulties alone without dragging others down. The laughter just now wasn't mocking but rather amused by Chen Mei'Er's straightforwardness. For a girl to say such words in front of so many people, it indirectly showed Mei'Er's candid nature.

Chen Baicheng understood clearly that Ye Xiaofan had provoked something frightening, so he didn't want to implicate others, but his daughter was deeply in love.

What is this? He thought it was a happy occasion for his daughter to like a boy, hoping for grandchildren, but now, this fellow turns out to be so troublesome.

Overall, Chen Baicheng owed Xiaofan a personal favor for this incident, and it was a huge one, affecting all his brothers, especially Gui.

"The words have been spoken, they can't be taken back. You all listen, Xiaofan is the Second-in-Command, that won't change, but it must be kept secret outside. If you see him needing help, assist him as much as you can. Do you understand?" Chen Baicheng wouldn't risk the lives of so many brothers, knowing that their opponent's organization was too powerful to contend with, which was why Xiaofan didn't want to involve many people.

The fact that he always considered others showed how decent this kid was. But fate has its way, damn it.

'Ring ring ring.'

"Hello, Xiaofan..."

At that moment, Chen Mei'Er's phone rang. After answering it, she happily called out.

"Cough cough, this kid just left and immediately called you? I wonder if it's a trick." Chen Baicheng skeptically asked.

"Mm, I know, leave it to me." Chen Mei'Er hung up the phone, but her mood wasn't great: "He wants me to act in a play with him, says it's to make another girl give up on him."

"Oh, still a romantic, huh. Who has the guts to compete for my daughter's sweetheart?" Chen Baicheng laughed.

"Her name is Liu Siyan. She's Xiaofan's high school classmate, and they knew each other before me. Xiaofan has always been pursuing that girl, while I, your precious daughter, am the third party…" Chen Mei'Er said, gave her father a look, and went upstairs.

Being the third party, actually not. Knowing Xiaofan's character, too many attachments might be a burden for him. She's willing to quietly wait by the side. But she knows that Xiaofan doesn't want anyone to waste their emotional clarity for him. It's the same whether it's herself or Liu Siyan.

Actually, Xiaofan asked Chen Mei'Er for help because he had no choice.

When he drove out of the Chen family's estate, he saw a message from Liu Siyan. The message read: Are you free? Let's have dinner and watch a movie tonight.

Xiaofan felt frustrated. She must have clearly seen him forcibly kissing Chen Mei'Er when she came, so why was she acting as if nothing had happened and still seeking him out?

He originally thought, with no contact these past few days, she had completely given up on him, but unexpectedly…

With a heavy heart, he never thought Liu Siyan would be willing to sacrifice so much for him. Even pretending nothing happened when she clearly saw him kissing another woman. It seems this emotional debt keeps growing.

'Not free this afternoon, let's have a drink at the club tonight.'

'Okay, you come pick me up.' Liu Siyan replied too.

'No, I'm meeting friends tonight, just come by yourself. Ten o'clock.'

'Oh, okay.'

After sending the messages, Xiaofan immediately called Chen Mei'Er to discuss the acting for the evening.

As for Liu Siyan, after hanging up, she took a deep breath. No matter what, she must show a better side in front of Xiaofan.

Yes, she did see it that day, but she was unwilling. Clearly, she and Xiaofan knew each other earlier, he's always liked her. Previously, when Shen Zuimo appeared, Xiaofan was distraught. Now, with the appearance of Chen Mei'Er, she really didn't know how to face it.

If she agreed to be his official girlfriend now, would things change? Yes, surely they could.

So, after putting down the phone, Liu Siyan immediately opened her wardrobe, carefully choosing her best-looking clothes to dress up beautifully to meet her sweetheart. Yet she didn't know that what awaited her was a heart-wrenching encounter.

But, heartbreak is better than loss. Liu Siyan is a good girl. If told the truth, she surely wouldn't give up on him, and indeed, he had relationships with Ren Ling and Chen Mei'Er, which was the fact. So he planned to omit the assassination order part, showing only the other half of the truth before her.

Meanwhile, at the Red Butterfly headquarters.

"Ye Xiaofan, Ye Xiaofan again, why is it always this kid? Bastard. Bastard."

Losing so many channels at once, billions worth of goods gone, and losing four assassins consecutively, with one female assassin who had been with them for seven or eight years. Their original plan was completely disrupted again, all thanks to Ye Xiaofan. In a rage, the Red Butterfly boss smashed the TV and tore up the newspaper.

And that wasn't enough. He took out an AK47 from the cabinet and started shooting wildly around the room, unable to quell the fury in his heart.

However, he was a figure who wouldn't let anger ruin his thought process. Initially, he had calculated that even if the police discovered them, their supply line wouldn't be fully severed. But now, ruined by Ye Xiaofan, they suffered a complete defeat, losing everything.

"Someone, come."

"Boss."

"Raise the bounty on Ye Xiaofan to a billion."

"What? A billion? This…"

"Do it. This kid is clearly against us, and we need stronger assassins to take him out."

"Hmm, what the boss says makes sense, but should we also kill Chen Baicheng."

"Why kill Chen Baicheng? A small-time mob boss, killing him is a waste of the prize money. I only want Ye Xiaofan's life. Go now..."

"Yes, boss."

After the subordinate left, the boss took out a couple of photos from the drawer, one of Shen Zuimo, and the other of Ye Xiaofan.

"Ye Xiaofan, I must have you dead."

'Bang.' With an angry roar, the boss used the AK47 on the desk to frantically shoot at the photos again.
