Fang Yuan, wearing a sexy suspender dress, stepped out of the car, the thin straps barely covering her thighs, chest prominently uplifted. Every move she made exuded a seductive charm. With an apologetic face, Fang Yuan walked over and said, "Lin Chuan, I'm really sorry."

"Why are you here?" Lin Chuan asked, "How did you know I came to the airport?"

"I went to the City Committee to look for you," Fang Yuan said awkwardly.

"Tell me, was last night's incident something you and Bai Yifan did together?" Lin Chuan closed in on Fang Yuan, his gaze intense, his tone demanding, "Look into my eyes and tell me the truth honestly."

"I don't know what you're talking about," Fang Yuan hurriedly avoided Lin Chuan's almost murderous gaze.

"Your eyes have already deceived you," Lin Chuan glared at Fang Yuan and said, "Don't think for a second that I don't know, you can't fool me."

"I... I really didn't," Fang Yuan said awkwardly, "I don't know what you are talking about, I... just like you, is that so wrong? Under those circumstances, I couldn't control myself!"

Seeing Fang Yuan in such a hysterical state, Lin Chuan was somewhat at a loss.

It was clear that he was the one who had made a mistake; not only had he kissed her, but he'd gone even further. Now, he was aggressively questioning her. What on earth was wrong with him? Lin Chuan's tone softened as he said, "I'm sorry, I... might have been out of sorts these past few days."

Having said that, Lin Chuan turned and walked towards a jeep parked nearby, then drove off.

Watching Lin Chuan's retreating figure, Fang Yuan felt a wave of guilt.

"What? Our Miss Fang Yuan can feel upset and guilty?" At this moment, Bai Yifan walked out from the terminal building, speaking with a smile, "Don't forget your title as the 'cold-faced assassin', right? Could it be that you've fallen for Lin Chuan?"

"Hmph," Fang Yuan snorted coldly and said, "Bai Yifan, you really are spiteful."

"How so?" Bai Yifan asked.

"There's a saying: it's better to demolish ten temples than to destroy one marriage," Fang Yuan said disdainfully. "But you, you've gone out of your way to break up a couple."

"They're not married!" Bai Yifan retorted, "Besides, even if they were, I have the right to pursue love. I truly love Tang Yumeng. Why can Lin Chuan have her and not me?"

"You could have pursued her openly and honestly, no need for such scheming!" Fang Yuan gave Bai Yifan a cold glance.

Bai Yifan let out a sigh and said, "I wish I could, but it seems that Tang Yumeng doesn't like me."

"Indeed," Fang Yuan said with a candid smile, "If I were Tang Yumeng, I would probably choose Lin Chuan over you, too!"

"Why?" Bai Yifan looked at Fang Yuan, genuinely puzzled, "From any angle, I am better than Lin Chuan. Looks, status, position, wealth... even education and upbringing... in all these, I am much superior. Why would you choose Lin Chuan over me?"

"Are those things really that important?" Fang Yuan looked at Bai Yifan with pity and said, "Those things might fool materialistic women, but you can't fool a real woman!"

"What is a 'real woman'?" Bai Yifan asked curiously, looking at Fang Yuan.

"Sincerity, a woman who is sincere," Fang Yuan said with a smile, looking at Bai Yifan, "A real woman won't deceive herself, nor will she settle for less. What she needs from a man is not looks, status, position, money, or even education. It's the responsibility that a man should carry."

"Don't I have responsibility?" Bai Yifan patted his chest.

"Then, may I ask, Mr. Bai, is your pursuit of Tang Yumeng pure in its intent?" Fang Yuan stared back at Bai Yifan, her gaze sharp like two flurries of cold blades. Bai Yifan stumbled back a few steps, intimidated by the gaze of a trained assassin, the look of someone who has been through countless trials and tribulations.

"Is Lin Chuan's pursuit pure?" Bai Yifan suddenly roared with anger, "He's merely attracted to Tang Yumeng for her beauty, status, and wealth. Tell me, where does his sense of responsibility come from?"

Fang Yuan looked pitifully at Bai Yifan and said, "You will never understand or realize what you lack when others possess it!"

With that, Fang Yuan turned away.

She stepped into her Beetle and then speedily drove off.

Bai Yifan, watching Fang Yuan's distant figure, couldn't help but shout furiously, "One day, I will make you understand that Lin Chuan is never better than me. I will make Tang Yumeng truly love me. Definitely not Lin Chuan!!!"

The rage inside him burst forth at that moment.

Bai Yifan still couldn't grasp what made him less appealing than Lin Chuan, despite being so outstanding.

Bai Yifan stood at the entrance of the airport terminal building.

The words Fang Yuan had just spoken had deeply stung him. As a man, he always believed himself to be the most exceptional person in the world. And Lin Chuan? Nothing more than a poor kid from Changlin Factory, not even average, let alone outstanding.

But, just why is it that such a man continuously has women thinking he is better than themselves? How could Bai Yifan not be angry?

In the end, Bai Yifan is an educated man, and he wanted to win Tang Yumeng's heart with his own methods. Although he disdains underhanded tactics, he often conflicts within himself. He wants to get Tang Yumeng, but on the other hand, his own upbringing prevents him from stooping to despicable means.

Bai Yifan is indeed very handsome, very excellent.

Even though he was just standing at the entrance of the terminal building, roaring with rage, he still attracted the attention of several hot girls.

"Wow, he's so handsome," a girl with an impressive bust excitedly looked at Bai Yifan and said, "I suddenly feel like I might have found true love."

"Nana, if you like him, go for it," a sister next to her egged her on.

The girl nodded, saying, "Alright, I'll give it a try. I don't believe there's a man who can resist me."

After saying that, the girl deliberately lowered her clothes a bit, making her already impressive bust even more overwhelming. She walked proudly straight toward Bai Yifan. As the girl approached, she said with a sweet smile, "Sir, I... I lost my phone, could I borrow yours to make a call?"

Bai Yifan glanced at her. He didn't have much of a liking for such an openly flirtatious girl.

But, Bai Yifan is after all a cultured and composed man, being helpful is his nature. Without hesitation, he passed his phone to her. It was a very small phone, a limited edition from Damascus.

This is a phone handcrafted with hot-forging technology. The material used for the body is called Damascus steel, which due to its strength and sharpness was traditionally used in making swords. The phone itself is also very "sharp"; this model had hit the market years ago, targeting nobility as its customers. The phone features a two-inch color screen, runs on a Nokia operating system, has a two-megapixel camera, and supports video shooting and Bluetooth. This phone is priced at four thousand two hundred US dollars.

Although it doesn't have the latest specs for cameras and operating systems, what this phone represents is a certain status.

"Wow!" When the girl took the phone, she was immediately stunned, exclaiming, "This... Isn't this the Damascus phone? I can't believe... I can't believe I would see one, oh my God!"

"Aren't you going to make a call?" Bai Yifan glanced at her.

"Right, right!" The girl nodded hastily, hurrying to dial a number, but soon, her own phone rang.

While Bai Yifan was puzzled, the girl returned his phone, smiling, "Sir, I've saved my number on your phone. My name is Nana, it was nice meeting you. You can ask me out for dinner sometime."

Bai Yifan was taken aback, chuckled, and said, "Is this how you pursue a man?"

"Of course not." Nana smiled and said, "I'm just giving you a chance to pursue me."

With the phone in hand, Bai Yifan turned and stepped into the white Mercedes parked at the terminal entrance and then drove away.

Several girls gathered around.

"Wow, Nana, you've hooked a rich husband," one girl said excitedly.

"That Mercedes is so expensive, did you see the model? It's an S600," another girl also said excitedly.

Nana held her phone, smiling, "The phone number is even a set of quadruple digits."

The girls were thrilled.

But, after Bai Yifan got into the car, he opened his phone and immediately deleted the just-saved number. With Bai Yifan's status and refinement, ordinary women naturally couldn't catch his eye. Such women were, at most, chasing after his money. He preferred Tang Yumeng, not only because pursuing her was more of a challenge but more so because of the mountain standing behind her.

Beep beep beep...

The car had just arrived home when an unknown call came in.

"Hello, who is this?" Bai Yifan answered the call.

"Sir, didn't you save my number?" A familiar girl's voice came through, laughing, "We just met at the airport. Have you forgotten me already?"

"Sorry, you have the wrong number." Bai Yifan immediately hung up, then added the number to the blacklist.

The girl stood outside the airport with a dejected face. Under her friends' encouragement, she actually called Bai Yifan. But this time, she ended up embarrassed and even made it to Bai Yifan's blacklist.

............

Not having caught up with Tang Yumeng at the airport, Lin Chuan was very dejected and disheartened.

Lin Chuan returned to the City Committee, back to the rest room. Although the main leaders of the City Committee were away on business trips, they, the drivers, still had to wait on standby in the rest room. After all, they were paid by the state, and it was their job. Even if sitting idle and bored, they had to stay in the rest room.
