At this moment, Ye Xiao was indeed feeling a bit strange, or rather, like a monk who hadn't found his way.
Originally, Ye Xiao thought that although Tang Xuewen wasn't exceptionally handsome, he was at least reasonably good-looking with clear features. More importantly, this guy was his financial minister, possessing a unique insight in business aspects, and would surely become his right-hand man in the future. Plus, Ye Ziyan, as his sister, would surely be treated very well by Tang Xuewen in the future.
However, Ye Ziyan's reaction was unusual, and Jiang Miaoke added some off-topic comments on the side.
Yet, what Jiang Miaoke said seemed to have some truth, so Ye Xiao didn't say much more and instead looked at Jiang Miaoke, saying, "Could you please give us a ride back to Tulip District?"
Jiang Miaoke initially wanted to bicker a bit with Ye Xiao, but seeing Ye Ziyan's odd expression, she lost that thought and slapped the car keys onto the table.
Ye Xiao looked at Jiang Miaoke, "What do you mean?"
Jiang Miaoke immediately raised her eyebrows and said, "Don't you want to be the driver?"
A driver?
Hearing this, Ye Xiao quickly picked up the car keys and said, "Of course I do, it's my lifelong honor to be your driver."
"You sure know how to talk!" Jiang Miaoke joked.
Ye Xiao then stood up, paid for the three bowls of pepper noodles, and walked directly to the roadside where Jiang Miaoke's Porsche was parked.
Meanwhile, Jiang Miaoke and Ye Ziyan also got up.
At this moment, Ye Ziyan kept her head down with a slight frown.
Jiang Miaoke smiled slightly, walked to her side while looking at Ye Xiao heading to the Porsche, and said to Ye Ziyan, "Ziyan, you like your brother, right?"
"Huh?" Ye Ziyan, hearing Jiang Miaoke's words, was instantly flustered and quickly said, "No, no, I…I don't!"
If Jiang Miaoke was just guessing before, now his guess was fully validated, at least from Ye Ziyan's flustered reaction.
Jiang Miaoke said, "Did you forget? We are all women!"
Ye Ziyan was slightly stunned by Jiang Miaoke's words, seemingly understanding.
"Let's go, we just might see the person Ye Xiao speaks so highly of. I'm curious to see what he's capable of." Jiang Miaoke said, "Also, don't take your brother's words to heart, when he's dealing with serious matters, he's competent, but not at all when it's not."
Ye Ziyan forced a smile, but her heart was somewhat sour and even more torn. Nevertheless, she followed Jiang Miaoke to the Porsche.
On the way, the three of them barely spoke.
At that time, there were quite a few cars on the road, so Ye Xiao wasn't driving fast at all.
More than half an hour later, the Porsche stopped in Tulip District.
As soon as Ye Xiao entered the district, a Blood Wolf Guard called Lu Sen, so Lu Sen and Tang Xuewen immediately went downstairs to greet Ye Xiao.
"Brother Xiao!" Tang Xuewen saw Ye Xiao and immediately walked towards him with a big smile.
Ye Xiao also walked towards him, saying, "You dare to trick me? Where's the person I wanted to meet?"
Hearing this, Tang Xuewen immediately laughed, "Brother Xiao, don't worry, if I dare say it, that person certainly exists."
Ye Xiao looked suspiciously at Tang Xuewen, but at that moment, not far behind, a woman walked over with long flowing hair, wearing a wool coat, and her exquisite face was mesmerizing.
"Weiwei!" Upon seeing this woman, a hint of joy appeared in Ye Xiao's eyes, and he immediately walked towards the long-haired beauty.
She was none other than Han Xuewei from Minghai City.
Ye Xiao was just curious about what kind of person could make Tang Xuewen keep it secret, and it turned out to be Han Xuewei.
Han Xuewei looked at Ye Xiao with a smile on her face.
"How have you been?" Han Xuewei walked up to Ye Xiao and said with a smile.
Ye Xiao nodded slightly and said, "Great. And you, did you miss me?"
"You're always like this!" Han Xuewei said without a good nature.
Ye Xiao proudly said, "Isn't this my asset?"
Hearing this, Han Xuewei immediately said, "Maybe, but suddenly coming here wouldn't disturb you, would it?"
"Of course not, I've been thinking about you day and night!" Ye Xiao said earnestly, "Just look at my serious face, you'll know that what I said is absolutely true."
"I wouldn't believe you!" Han Xuewei said, "Is this your new girlfriend?"
Ye Xiao also noticed Jiang Miaoke and Ye Ziyan walking over, so he knew who Han Xuewei was referring to.
"Yes." Ye Xiao said.
At this moment, Jiang Miaoke's voice also came over.
"Ye Xiao, aren't you going to introduce who this beautiful lady is?"
Han Xuewei and Ye Ziyan were acquainted, having met once in Minghai City, though Ye Ziyan barely spoke at that time, so they weren't familiar with each other.
Hearing Jiang Miaoke's words, Han Xuewei brushed past Ye Xiao and approached Jiang Miaoke, extending her right hand, and said, "Hello, I'm Han Xuewei."
Being experienced in business, Han Xuewei chose to take the initiative after knowing who the counterpart was.
Although Jiang Miaoke was usually straightforward, she was taken aback by Han Xuewei's sudden 'assault'.
"Hello, Jiang Miaoke!" Jiang Miaoke, after hesitating for a good three seconds, finally looked at Han Xuewei and said.
Han Xuewei said, "Nice to meet you."
"Me too!" Jiang Miaoke replied.
The conversation between the two was really very formal.
At that moment, Ye Xiao suddenly detected a whiff of gunpowder.
Yes, the smell of gunpowder.
This made the previously calm Ye Xiao a bit nervous.
After half an hour of calming down, Ye Ziyan was feeling much better, and she sensed some discord in Jiang Miaoke and Han Xuewei's words. To avoid making things difficult for Ye Xiao, she quickly smiled and said, "You two sisters-in-law, there's plenty of time to talk later, why don't we let Ye Xiao go and chat with Tang Xuewen first?"
Sisters-in-law? Two sisters-in-law?
Upon hearing this, Han Xuewei and Jiang Miaoke almost simultaneously turned to Ye Ziyan and said, "What sisters-in-law, don't talk nonsense!"
Ye Ziyan, hearing their words, immediately laughed, "See, they're already teaming up against me, their little sister. You better watch out, if you offend me, I might just talk badly about you to my brother."
Han Xuewei and Jiang Miaoke were speechless.
