Zhang Yuxi pouted and said, "He started chasing me after watching ’Green Jade Case.’ Besides being lustful, he might just be looking for a novelty. Once he gets me, he won’t cherish me and will dump me after the thrill is gone, then chase the next target. I’ve seen many pampered young men like him. If it were for money, I could be with him for a while, but I’m not that kind of person."

Chen Feng found her words amusing. If she wasn’t interested in money, why did she get involved with him earlier? The purpose was clearly for fame and fortune.

However, Chen Feng still trusted her integrity, believing she genuinely wasn’t after Yao Guanyu’s money.

After all, she became a sensation because of ’Green Jade Case’ and has already landed several lucrative endorsements. She doesn’t lack money anymore, so there’s no need for her to accommodate others for financial reasons, or even compromise her values.

In the end, it was simply that Zhang Yuxi wasn’t interested in Yao Guanyu.

Meanwhile, Yao Guanyu, who Zhang Yuxi mentioned, was outside the gates of East Lake Garden, sitting in his parked Range Rover, smoking one after another.

"Are you sure you saw her enter this district alone?"

Yao Guanyu asked the driver.

The driver, Lu, was in his thirties, a former scout, and had been with him for several years. He was someone Yao trusted deeply.

He had come specially from his hometown in Yue State to pursue Zhang Yuxi. Though impulsive, he was ready for a long-term endeavor, so he brought Lu to help stake out Zhang Yuxi.

Otherwise, as a pampered young man since childhood, he lacked the patience, perseverance, and capability.

"Yes, she flew back from Huai State last night and went straight into this district by car. Because the district’s security is quite strict, I haven’t yet figured out which building she’s staying in. Since she entered the district last night, she hasn’t come out."

"Did you ask her assistant?" After taking a harsh drag on his cigarette, Yao Guanyu asked.

Five days ago, he managed to use connections and privately contacted a personal assistant of Zhang Yuxi’s. After adding each other on WeChat, he transferred 18,888 to her immediately. She quickly submitted, acting as an informant and revealing Zhang Yuxi’s itinerary and whereabouts to him.

Otherwise, no matter how resourceful he was, it was improbable not to lose track of Zhang Yuxi.

"That assistant seems to have been suspected by her, wasn’t brought along to Xiu Zhou this time, deliberately left in Huai State instead."

Yao Guanyu wasn’t disappointed; instead, he said joyfully, "Indeed, the woman I admire combines beauty with intelligence. She even discerned problems among her close personnel. Very impressive."

"So, should we keep waiting?"

"Yes, keep waiting. You stayed up all night guarding, you should rest for now, I will watch myself."

Yao Guanyu was considerate of his subordinates. Plus, Lu hadn’t left the car since yesterday night after tracking Zhang Yuxi into East Lake District, consistently staking out.

"Alright then, thank you, boss."

Lu wasn’t pretentious; after expressing gratitude, he quickly fell asleep in his seat.

Yao Guanyu had slept comfortably in a hotel last night up to now; he felt refreshed.

It wasn’t until close to noon that Yao Guanyu finally saw Zhang Yuxi exiting the district and getting into a business vehicle parked at the entrance, heading straight toward the airport.

Yao Guanyu hurriedly awoke driver Lu, telling him to follow her.

Zhang Yuxi was indeed hard to pursue, but Yao Guanyu enjoyed the challenge too. It simply exhibited the dull life of a rich heir, or maybe Zhang Yuxi’s present allure for him was too profound.

Before Zhang Yuxi left East Lake Garden, Chen Feng had already driven out from inside, returning to No. 8 Villa.

First, he returned to his room, took a shower, changed his clothes, and then comfortably lay on the sofa downstairs, ready to browse his phone. Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

Chen Feng found it peculiar; usually, his doorbell wouldn’t ring.

Suspecting it must be the persistent Sun Yanhong, he went to check the visual doorbell, and indeed it was her.

Chen Feng, not happy, directly questioned, "Why are you here? Couldn’t you just call? Why ring the doorbell?"

"Chen Feng, I made pine cakes from Lu City myself. Open the door and let me in."

Sun Yanhong said while purposely raising the pine cakes to the camera, showing Chen Feng.

As he looked, Chen Feng saw that it indeed resembled the pine cakes from Lu City, something he loved eating since childhood and couldn’t find outside, including in Xiu Zhou.

It seemed Sun Yanhong was very thoughtful, knowing what he liked.

Chen Feng wanted to refuse, but remembered throwing away the egg cake she sent last time; refusing or discarding the pine cake this time might seem excessive.

Mostly, Chen Feng desired the pine cake. After slight hesitance, he said, "Wait a moment, I’ll open the door."

Using a control switch to open the door while in the room to let her in was not an option.

To get the pine cake, Chen Feng had to go personally to the gate, intending to take the cake, then shutting the gate without letting her inside.

That was the plan, but as he opened the small gate of his front iron door and walked outside to Sun Yanhong, a young man quickly ran up from not far away, glaring at Chen Feng, as if confronting a mortal enemy.

"Is it you, this bastard, who stole my girlfriend?"

The man pointed at Chen Feng, demanding loudly.

Grass! It’s a plant.

Chen Feng was a bit taken aback, staring at the young man who seemed just over twenty, then turned his eyes to Sun Yanhong.

At that moment, after recovering from initial shock, Sun Yanhong quickly grew furious, stepping forward swiftly in high heels and slapped the man harshly.

A crisp slap echoed!

Both Chen Feng and the young man were stunned.

"Get lost immediately! Or you’ll regret it!"

Sun Yanhong pointed her finger outward at a forty-five-degree angle, commanding the young man loudly.

The man, with shock and grievance, clenching his hand over his slapped side of the face, shot Chen Feng a venomous glare before obediently turning away.

Evidently, Su Yanhong held significant sway over him; when she told him to leave, he left right away, very compliant.

"Chen Feng, I’m sorry. This kid is someone I knew before and has been chasing me, thinking he’s my boyfriend, but I’ve never acknowledged him."

To Sun Yanhong’s words, Chen Feng sneered; the man looked clearly like one of her former paid lovers, yet she acted innocent in front of him.

"Enough. I’m not interested in your personal affairs. Just keep your emotional disputes from involving me."
