At the entrance of Red Leaf Villa, a woman in a light green long dress, about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, was welcoming guests.

This woman had her hair in a high bun, with delicate features and a graceful figure.

She was like a green bamboo swaying in the wind, captivating anyone who laid eyes on her.

Yang Fei couldn't help but look twice, and Liang Jiayi gave a soft humph.

"Stop looking. This manor is now under her control."

"She is a very formidable woman. You can't afford to mess with her."

Yang Fei chuckled, "In this world, is there a woman I can't afford to mess with?"

"Is she the daughter of that old leader?"

Liang Jiayi rolled her eyes at him, slightly jealous.

"This woman's name is Chen Xingzhu. She has a mysterious background and is the daughter-in-law of the old leader."

"Since the leader passed away, this Red Leaf Villa has been managed by her."

"Don't underestimate her. She is very well-known in the elite circles."

"She is very socially adept, with connections everywhere. Nobody dares to offend her."

Yang Fei hummed in acknowledgment, a hint of doubt flashing across his face, but he said no more.

As they spoke, Yang Fei parked the Land Rover outside the villa, in a shaded parking spot.

Then, he and Liang Jiayi got out of the car.

Today, Liang Jiayi was wearing an off-white, small-collared, high-waisted women's suit, with rimless crystal glasses.

Her long legs were accentuated by the suit pants, and her hair was styled in a high bun, giving her a look of intellectual elegance that did not detract from her girlish charm.

In the same attire, Su Yinxue appeared domineering and cold, Lin Xueyi seemed elegant and gracious, Feng Cai'er looked spirited.

But Liang Jiayi's temperament was different from the other girls.

Liang Jiayi walked shoulder to shoulder with Yang Fei towards the villa entrance.

Yang Fei's outfit, also suggested by Su Yinxue, was a Yalan men's suit.

This significantly toned down his usual flippant demeanor, making him appear remarkably handsome.

Chen Xingzhu immediately spotted Liang Jiayi and greeted her warmly.

"Jiayi, you're here. You're getting prettier and prettier, come on in."

Her eyes curved like crescent moons, her smile full of warmth.

That welcoming and joyful aura naturally made people feel at ease.

Liang Jiayi greeted Chen Xingzhu.

"Sister Zhu, you're getting more beautiful too. Your skin is much better than mine."

"Oh, please, Sister Zhu is an old woman now, how can I compete with you young girls?"

"Jiayi, now that you're a secretary, your words are sweeter than ever!"

Chen Xingzhu affectionately pinched Liang Jiayi's cheek, acting like an older sister.

Liang Jiayi turned around and introduced Yang Fei to Chen Xingzhu, "Sister Zhu, let me introduce, this is..."

"Mr. Yang Fei, one of the actual shareholders of Yalan International and also a board member of the Lanting Hotel."

"Oh yes, Mr. Yang Fei is also the owner of Yinxue Tower. Isn't that right?"

Before Liang Jiayi could introduce him, Chen Xingzhu already recited Yang Fei's basic information as if reading from a script.

She lightly patted Liang Jiayi's shoulder.

"Of course, he is also the beloved of our Secretary Jiayi, hehe."

Although joking, Chen Xingzhu inadvertently showcased her powerful network capabilities.

Yang Fei was taken aback.

He didn't expect Chen Xingzhu to know so much about him.

This information about Yang Fei was not really a secret, a bit of attention would reveal it.

But the fact that Chen Xingzhu paid attention to Yang Fei was very telling.

Chen Xingzhu, smiling warmly, gestured towards the villa.

"Don't ask me how I know. They investigate you guys every day; I can't help but know."

Liang Jiayi was surprised, "Who's investigating us?"

Chen Xingzhu rolled her eyes playfully at Liang Jiayi.

"Who else? A bunch of brats thinking about bullying our Jiayi all day."

"But Jiayi, you should think twice if it's worth it to fight those scoundrels."

Liang Jiayi picked up on Chen Xingzhu's warning, growing more alarmed.

Yang Fei grew even more wary of this smiling woman.

Her seemingly warm and caring words had the potential to undermine Liang Jiayi's resolve.

This Chen Xingzhu was indeed not simple.

After speaking, Chen Xingzhu gave Yang Fei an intentional or unintentional glance, then invited the two inside.

Liang Jiayi and Yang Fei walked into Red Leaf Villa.

The villa had no particularly tall buildings, mostly Ming and Qing dynasty-style gardens, with wing rooms and pavilions.

Green bamboo stood tall and straight everywhere, interspersed with maple trees giving a layered feel.

There were also artificial hills and fountains, pavilions, and terraces.

This was indeed a great place for relaxation and entertainment.

Liang Jiayi felt a bit down.

She sighed softly.

"Sister Zhu is very well-informed. Even she doesn't seem optimistic about me."

"I think this time, I may not be able to win against them."

Yang Fei snorted.

"It's not necessarily the case. Chen Xingzhu's attitude doesn't mean anything."

"As long as you and Secretary Luo hold on, no one can do anything to you."

"And we still have the development contract we signed, they can't just be pieces of scrap paper, can they?"

Liang Jiayi gave a bitter smile.

"A few days ago, the city's specific plan hadn't been released yet."

"So, the contract we signed was just a development intention, not a formal contract, and has no legal effect."

"Moreover, even if a formal contract was signed, if I get transferred, they have ways of forcing you out legitimately."

Yang Fei hummed.

He was aware of these situations. At this moment, he was just trying to comfort Liang Jiayi.

Liang Jiayi sighed.

"Right now, my biggest worry is Uncle Luo."

"He's defying orders for the development of Martial God Town."

"Given the current situation, he is very likely to be transferred, which would leave us even more passive."

Yang Fei laughed coldly, a look of arrogance on his face.

"So, these people are really resorting to any means to grab the credit."

"Hmph, then they better not blame me for being unkind."

Liang Jiayi knew Yang Fei's temper, and her heart skipped a beat.

"You mustn't do anything illegal. Our opponents might be watching you closely."

"If they find any loophole in Yalan International, we'll be even worse off."

Yang Fei sighed, comforting Liang Jiayi.

"Don't worry, I won't need to do anything illegal to deal with these people."

"I only respect leaders like Secretary Luo. As for other leaders who want to oppress me, it depends on whether they have clean hands."

Yang Fei was speaking the truth.

With his current power and influence in the underworld, it was easy for him to catch anyone's weak spot.

As they walked and chatted, Liang Jiayi felt somewhat relieved by Yang Fei's comforting words.

In front of them was a three-story villa, which was the main venue for tonight's party.

Just as Yang Fei and Liang Jiayi reached it, they heard a sarcastic voice.

"Isn't this Comrade Jiayi? You're here too."

At the hall entrance, Fang Tang was wearing a Versace shirt, smiling amiably.

However, his eyes were full of malice.

Beside Fang Tang were Feen Jun and four or five other high-ranking youths.

These people were almost all familiar faces from Yinxue Tower.

Old enemies meet, eyes full of hatred!

Feen Jun glared malevolently at Yang Fei, the other high-ranking youths also had unfriendly expressions.

Feen Jun had been beaten by Yang Fei's security guards and then slapped by Elder Cheng.

All of this was because of Yang Fei. The anger in his heart was imaginable.
