As the song finished, Leng Xingfeng stood up from the piano and slowly walked to Qin Ruomeng's side, glancing at Ye Tianfan with eyes full of hostility.

He had already learned about Qin Ruomeng's marriage, which is why he rushed to Jiangzhou City from Dongzhou City in a hurry.

To Leng Xingfeng, Ye Tianfan was absolutely detestable. The goddess he had pursued for five years was now someone else's wife, and it felt like those five years were just serving someone else's wife. How could he suppress this nameless anger?

"So, you're Ruomeng's husband?" Leng Xingfeng raised an eyebrow and looked at Ye Tianfan, his tone full of provocation.

"Ruomeng?" Ye Tianfan glanced at Leng Xingfeng disdainfully and said, "You sound quite affectionate when you call her that."

"I've known Ruomeng since we were kids. Of course, our relationship is closer than that of outsiders." Leng Xingfeng's expression was very confident.

Moreover, before coming, Leng Xingfeng had already investigated all of Ye Tianfan's information. He was just a recent graduate from Kyoto University with no background or status. To put it bluntly, marrying Qin Ruomeng was really just marrying into the Qin Family, a typical pretty-boy.

If someone said that Ye Tianfan didn't marry Qin Ruomeng for the Qin family's wealth, Leng Xingfeng would never believe it.

However, Leng Xingfeng couldn't find out Ye Tianfan's true identity. Although Leng Xingfeng was a wealthy scion, he was not from the Ancient Martial Realm, so investigating Ye Tianfan's other identity was like climbing to the heavens.

If Leng Xingfeng knew that Qin Ruomeng forced the marriage, insisting on marrying Ye Tianfan, the current scene might be a different picture.

Ye Tianfan raised an eyebrow and gently wrapped his arm around Qin Ruomeng's fragrant shoulder, speaking, "You say you've known Qin Ruomeng since you were children?"

"Yes!"

"Childhood sweethearts? Intimately close?"

"Yes!"

"Closer than ordinary people?"

"Of course!"

Ye Tianfan smiled faintly and said, "Then why did she marry me? Besides, the one holding her now is me."

Ye Tianfan's words were like a loud slap in the face, directly hitting Leng Xingfeng. At this moment, Leng Xingfeng's face was full of anger, and Ye Tianfan's words left him unable to refute.

In any case, Ye Tianfan was already married to Qin Ruomeng.

They had even consummated the marriage.

Recollecting earlier, when Leng Xingfeng pursued Qin Ruomeng, he hadn't even held her hand, whereas Ye Tianfan might already spend nights intimately with Qin Ruomeng.

Even though in Leng Xingfeng's eyes, Ye Tianfan was just an unadulterated pretty-boy, now that things were settled, even with all his means, he couldn't win the woman, and Ye Tianfan, such a pretty-boy, had married her. Leng Xingfeng could lose to anyone, but to lose to a pretty-boy… Anyone would be unwilling.

"Ruomeng, do you have any difficulties? Tell me, and I'll definitely help you." Leng Xingfeng asked, unwilling to give up.

Qin Ruomeng gently raised her beautiful eyes and glanced at Ye Tianfan, ignoring Leng Xingfeng's question. It seemed that in front of Qin Ruomeng, Leng Xingfeng didn't even exist, and his emotions had nothing to do with Qin Ruomeng.

Qin Ruomeng only cared about Ye Tianfan's attitude and emotions.

As for Leng Xingfeng, Qin Ruomeng didn't dislike him, but didn't particularly like him either. In her heart, Leng Xingfeng was just a business partner with whom the Qin family had many import-export trade collaborations.

Other than that, there were no other relations.

And this time, the reason Qin Ruomeng came out.

Was entirely because of another person.

Long Yuqing!

Because Leng Xingfeng not only invited Qin Ruomeng but also Long Yuqing.

And Qin Ruomeng had mentioned before that she wanted to talk to Long Yuqing, so this was an opportunity. Now that Elder Qin had been taken away by a mysterious person, the Qin family had lost a stabilizing force. Qin Ruomeng knew that if she panicked, the Qin family would truly be finished, so she had to pull herself together!

Having understood this, Qin Ruomeng decided to come to this western restaurant with Leng Xingfeng.

"Ding-a-ling-a-ling..."

The door of the western restaurant was pushed open by someone, setting off the wind chimes.

Ye Tianfan and Qin Ruomeng simultaneously turned to look, only to see Long Yuqing, dressed in a white long dress, walking into the restaurant.

"Long Yuqing?" Ye Tianfan slightly furrowed his brow, somewhat puzzled by her sudden appearance.

"Brother Tianfan."

Seeing Ye Tianfan here, Long Yuqing was a bit surprised, but right now her eyes were tinged with sadness when she looked at Ye Tianfan.

The news of Ye Tianfan and Qin Ruomeng's marriage had spread throughout Jiangzhou City, and Long Yuqing had even received a wedding invitation sent by Elder Qin.

It was somewhat ironic, but that was reality.

"Yuqing, you're punctual indeed."

Just moments ago filled with anger, Leng Xingfeng now had a smile on his face as he walked towards Long Yuqing, attempting to shake her hand.

But the extended hand was ignored by Long Yuqing.

At this moment, Long Yuqing's gaze was fixed on Ye Tianfan, not moving away. That gaze, however, was full of complex emotions.

"Please, sit." Qin Ruomeng, with an expressionless face, gestured to the chair in front of her, indicating for Long Yuqing to sit down.

"Leng Xingfeng, you invited me to talk business, but you didn't say there would be others present!" Long Yuqing was clearly a bit upset.

"Miss Long, since you're here, why not sit down and chat? It's rare for us to meet face-to-face." Qin Ruomeng's voice was very calm.

So calm that even Ye Tianfan felt surprised.

Previously, whenever it involved emotional issues, Qin Ruomeng would be furious and thunderous, but now she was as calm as still water.

Perhaps it was the sudden disappearance of Elder Qin that hit Qin Ruomeng too hard.

Or maybe it was because Ye Tianfan and Qin Ruomeng had already obtained their marriage certificate.

In any case, the current Qin Ruomeng gave people a feeling of rebirth, as if she had matured overnight.

Regarding Qin Ruomeng's attitude, Long Yuqing was also slightly surprised. Although she felt unsatisfied, she still sat beside Qin Ruomeng.

"Alright! The matter Elder Qin entrusted to our Leng family, I consider it done, and the rest has nothing to do with me."

Leng Xingfeng's words left Long Yuqing slightly stunned, very unexpected.

In Long Yuqing's mind, Leng Xingfeng was always a typical playboy, openly pursuing Qin Ruomeng while secretly making eyes at her, a scion with a two-timing heart.

Both women were well aware of this situation but chose not to disclose it, after all, the Leng family's conduct had always been such. Not only Leng Xingfeng but the entire Leng family was like this. On the surface, the Leng family and the Qin family had business exchanges, while secretly, the Leng family also engaged in smuggling with the Long family.

A typical merchant's facade.

Despised, yet profitable.

But one thing couldn't be denied, the Leng family was a link. If anyone could bring the Qin family and Long family to sit down and talk, it was the Leng family.
