Chapter 135: Gao Yuyang

Ye Fei stood at the entrance of the restroom, the more he looked at his reflection in the mirror, the more he felt that this man was simply too handsome. After admiring his own beauty for a while, Ye Fei went out to attend to serious business.

Secretaries and archives were indeed the top priorities, but entering those areas now would be too abrupt and might arouse suspicion. It was crucial to first probe the personnel in various departments and dig up some valuable information.

He arrived at the pantry on the fifteenth floor, intending to eavesdrop on some gossip. The room was filled with several women of average appearance. Ye Fei was not particularly interested, but a woman on the other side held up her coffee and asked, "I heard you’re the most formidable bodyguard around. Do you have any special skills?"

Ye Fei smiled slightly, reached out his hand, and gave it a gentle twirl. A small rose appeared out of thin air in his palm.

"A magic trick? Aren't you a bodyguard? How can you perform magic? And you look so thin and weak—can you really take on eight people at once?"

...

As expected, the women in the pantry were not to be trifled with. Ye Fei shrugged lightly and prepared to head back.

"Wait a moment, brother. You are the Chairman's bodyguard, after all. Who gave you permission to leave your post without authorization?"

An discordant voice rang out from the crowd. Ye Fei turned to see the Sales Manager, a department head brought in by the Situ Feng family.

Ye Fei poured himself a cup of coffee and took a sip. "I didn't leave without authorization; I was just bored and taking a stroll. Who might you be?"

"My name is Bai Lin, the manager of the Sales Department. Do you follow the Madam twenty-four hours a day? Have you won any domestic competition medals? Since you're a bodyguard, which agency do you belong to?"

They were clearly plotting against the Gao family, while the Gao family remained foolishly caught up in their own incredible, pipe-dream fantasies.

"I don't belong to any agency; I just train for fun," Ye Fei said, proactively dispelling Bai Lin's doubts. He intended to lure Situ Feng into making the first move; otherwise, he would have no credibility with Xie Yanzi.

Bai Lin’s lip curled in such disdain it nearly reached his ear. He glanced at Ye Fei, snorted coldly, and walked out of the pantry.

The pantry was left with only a few chattering women. Ye Fei had no interest in them and was about to turn and leave when a splash of scalding coffee stopped him in his tracks.

A woman had accidentally spilled her cup directly onto Ye Fei’s back. He heard a startled "Oh!" behind him.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

Ye Fei turned slowly. He was about to flare up, but upon seeing the delicate Jiangnan beauty before him, he instantly suppressed all his anger and quietly took off his coat.

The woman fixed her gaze on him. Ye Fei’s eight-pack abs were faintly visible. Which woman wouldn't be bewitched by such a physique? Combined with the aura Ye Fei exuded, she bit her lower lip, her entire focus locked on him.

"Xiao Mei, are you taken with this bodyguard?" the older women behind her couldn't help but tease, though their own eyes lingered on Ye Fei as well. Their longing gazes roamed over him, and they lost track of time.

"What are you all huddled here for? Don't you have work to do?"

A harsh reprimand rang out. Ye Fei turned and felt a flash of irritation—what was Gao Yangwei doing at the company?

Upon seeing Ye Fei, Gao Yangwei was also fuming. He stepped forward and grabbed Ye Fei by the collar. "What the hell are you doing here? Don't think that just because you have a powerful senior sister, you can do whatever you want! This is the Gao family's company, my company!"

The man was like a wild dog that had broken its leash, gripping Ye Fei’s collar so tightly that the smell of his breath hit Ye Fei directly.

"Aren't you just relying on your parents? So what if I rely on my dear senior sister? And another thing! I am a bodyguard hired by your mother, so show some respect when you talk to me!"

Gao Yangwei let go of him, looking incredulous. "Impossible, how could that be? My mother wouldn't hire you. What skills do you have that would make her hire you? You're just a bumpkin! This is a management company, do you think this is a street stall?"

The woman who had spilled the coffee spoke up for Ye Fei: "He is a bodyguard; he can take on eight people by himself!"

Hearing her voice, Gao Yangwei walked over to her, acting coy. "Xiao Mei, I've asked you to dinner many times, but you've never agreed. Can you go to dinner with me?"

Xiao Mei quickly stepped back and bowed slightly. "I'm sorry, I cannot. I am here to work, not to dine with you."

Gao Yangwei’s face turned the color of a pig's liver. Xiao Mei remained impassive, looking at him with a composed expression.

He pointed at her nose and cursed, "Do you really think I’m interested in you? You're just a pauper with a bit of looks; do you really think you're something special?"

Being insulted like that in public was unbearable for anyone. Xiao Mei clenched her fists, her eyes reddening slightly. She bit her lip and stood there silently, enduring the humiliation. No one around her stepped in to help. She kept her eyes fixed on the floor, trying to calm herself and block out the vile words.

"Hey, are you suffering from a mid-day hormonal imbalance? Are you a reincarnation of a libido? Is your brain just filled with trashy movies?" Ye Fei said with a laugh. Seeing Gao Yangwei’s shocked expression, Ye Fei continued, "Angry? I'm just stating facts. Didn't you get dumped by Sun Shiyun last time? Damn, if I were you, I wouldn't have the face to go out in public!"

...

Suddenly, the air was filled with whispers.

"Dumped by the eldest daughter of the Sun family? Is that true?"

"The engagement fell apart back then—so that's why, he was dumped!"

"Wow, that's explosive! Dumped by a woman from a third-rate family!"

Gao Yangwei grabbed the coffee machine nearby and hurled it at Ye Fei.

Ye Fei stood his ground. As the machine flew toward him, he gave a light flick of his left hand, and the machine seemed to sprout wings, flying right back at Gao Yangwei.

A loud crash followed, and all the coffee inside the machine splashed onto Gao Yangwei.

"What the hell is going on? This is bizarre!"

"Didn't the coffee machine fly from Young Master Gao's side? How did it fly back?"

"Is there some deity protecting this bodyguard today?"

Seeing Gao Yangwei shivering, Ye Fei burst into laughter. "This looks hilarious! Hahahaha."

Gao Yangwei pointed a trembling finger at Ye Fei. "I'm going to tell my mother! You just wait! And you! Huang Xiaomei, I'm not finished with you two! I will make you pay in blood for this."

"Young Master Gao, we are just talking about coffee debts here. Where does blood come into it?"
