Amongst the Stars, Out in the Ocean, There's You

Ye Fei checked out the dress she had changed into, mostly satisfied with it. Though Su Mohan forced her to give up the light pink dress, that conceded b!tch paid her double the price – enough for her to buy a newer style.

Humming, Ye Fei took a cab. By the time she arrived at the hotel, it was almost time for her meeting with the pawnshop owner. She had to skip her meal.

"Follow her."

Looking at the attractive woman, Su Mohan, as if possessed, asked the driver to follow. His eyes were dark and hard to read.

The driver followed from a far distance and eventually saw Ye Fei get off at Wan Xin Hotel.

When he saw Ye Fei take a seat by the window on the second level of the hotel lobby, Su Mohan left the car, took a private elevator and arrived on the second floor of Wan Xin Hotel. The manager who quickly came upon hearing Su Mohan's arrival stood by his side respectfully and kept on wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Standing by the carved out railing on the second floor, Su Mohan easily placed the beautiful Ye Fei. However, across from her sat a man who was older than 30. A look of irritation crossed his eyes, scaring the manager, who was observing his expression, so much that he nearly fell off the stairs.

Time passed by minute by minute. Su Mohan stood by the second floor and watched Ye Fei chat with this man about life. Green veins were now visible on the hand that was gripping onto the railing. The well-carved railing kept on making funny noises as if it could not endure the man's anger and was about to be crushed.

Ye Fei, you've got some nerve!

You stepped off my bed yesterday and today you go and seduce other men!

The man sitting across from Ye Fei was a little over 30 with an average-looking face. He wore a casual dress shirt and his hair was neatly combed through and waxed. If it weren't for the ill-intended looking gaze he was using on Ye Fei, he would be leaving a rather positive impression.

"You must be Ms. Xu!" The man extended his hand to Ye Fei, his eyes flashed with cleverness and greed.

"Mr. Zhou, hello." Ye Fei didn't tell this man her real name. Because he was asked by Ye Ya and Jiang Huiru to take care of her late mother's inheritance, she had to hide her identity in case the news gets into the Ye family's ears.

"Ms. Xu truly is exceptionally graceful. Your beauty is out of the world…" grabbing onto Ye Fei's extended hand, the man cupped it with both hands. He only let go after checking out Ye Fei for a whole minute.

Looking at her hand that was red from being held on to for too long, Ye Fei didn't get a good feeling. However, her expression remained unchanged. "Mr. Zhou, I think you are aware of my intentions for setting up a meeting with you."

The man didn't answer straight away and instead, poured wine into Ye Fei's wine glass, "Ms. Xu, it is our first time meeting, I will finish my drink to show respect."

Ye Fei had no choice but to comply and show respect as well. She picked up her wine glass and finished the drink in one go. After the glass of wine hit her stomach, her cheeks began to feel flushed.

"Ms. Xu sure is a straight forward person! Since that's the case, then I will be straight forward with you as well." The man paused before continuing, "Though I do not know what your relationship is with the late Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Lu's inheritances are currently being taken care of by me at the ask of the second daughter of the Ye family. I have to report the earnings from the inheritances to the family as they are. So, if you want all the goods, then I really have no way to go around the asking prices."
