A surge of anger suddenly rose in her heart. Despite feeling Liu Piaoxu's powerful aura, Shen Tianyin still looked up defiantly, meeting his gaze.
“I’ll accompany you to the end.”
The eyes of the two women engaged in a fierce battle in mid-air.
Ye Fan sat to the side, feeling a headache. Neither of these two women was easy to deal with.
Elder Ji looked at Ye Fan with pity.
Excellent men were like this, and with Ye Fan's capabilities, he would certainly not lack women around him.
Since terrifying women like Liu Piaoxu were conquered by Ye Fan, what about other women?
“Miss Shen, are you not planning to withdraw?”
Liu Piaoxu asked coldly, her terrifying chill instantly enveloping Shen Tianyin.
Shen Tianyin’s eyes held determination, and a burning light bloomed.
“Miss Liu, where does your confidence come from? How much do you know about Ye Fan? Have you lived with him? Let me tell you, we have already consummated our marriage. Do you not find it laughable to ask me to withdraw, Miss Liu?”
She confronted Liu Piaoxu head-on, not yielding an inch.
However, these words stunned Ye Fan. Consummated their marriage? Since when? How did he not know?
Furthermore, was the Shen Tianyin before him the same dignified lady he knew?
The Shen Tianyin in his memory was gentle, elegant, reserved, and shy. How had she become so feisty now?
Liu Piaoxu’s lips moved, but in the end, she said nothing more. She walked past Shen Tianyin and headed straight out.
When she reached the door, she said coldly, “Even if you are married, you can divorce. Ye Fan, I will definitely win him.”
Then, she left the private room directly.
“Hmph, I’m only afraid you don’t have the ability.”
Shen Tianyin snorted dismissively, then looked at Ye Fan, her eyes questioning.
Her eyes were slightly red, and the previous feistiness had completely vanished.
She wanted an explanation from Ye Fan.
Seeing Shen Tianyin’s gaze, Ye Fan felt his head was as big as a bucket.
“If I say we have a purely cooperative relationship, would you believe me?”
Spreading his hands, Ye Fan looked at Shen Tianyin and said with a sincere face.
“Why wouldn’t I believe you? As long as you say it, I dare to believe it.”
She stubbornly lifted her small face, gazing at Ye Fan.
Clever women never made unreasonable demands. Clearly, Shen Tianyin was one such woman.
Boom~
Ye Fan felt his heart suddenly explode, and a warmth instantly flowed in.
Especially looking at Shen Tianyin’s stubborn and determined expression, the softness deep in his heart was deeply touched.
He abruptly stood up, strode forward, and pulled Shen Tianyin into his arms tightly.
“Thank you.”
Ye Fan whispered in her ear.
Feeling the warmth of Ye Fan’s embrace, and the immense strength in his arms, Shen Tianyin suddenly curled her lips into a smile.
“No matter what, I will not let you go unless I die.”
It seemed that Liu Piaoxu’s provocation today had completely changed Shen Tianyin, releasing the affection she had always hidden in her heart at this moment.
He held her tightly, as if wanting to merge her into his body at this moment.
After an unknown amount of time, there was a knock on the door. Ye Fan reluctantly let her go.
Shen Tianyin’s face was flushed red at this moment, her shy appearance making Ye Fan chuckle.
He lightly tickled her nose.
“With me here, you won’t die.”
Then he opened the door and saw Elder Sun standing outside.
“Sir, the appraisal fair is about to begin. Let’s return to our private room.”
The appraisal convention was about to start, and this was the main purpose of their visit.
Ye Fan nodded, then smiled at Shen Tianyin before returning to the Boguzhai private room with Elder Sun.
This time, Boguzhai, Tianyin Pavilion, and Bowang Pavilion were united in participating in the appraisal convention. If any of them achieved a good ranking, it would mean Ye Fan’s victory.
In the office of Zheng Zhilong of the Antiques Association.
“Boss, I have communicated with the four great families. This time, they will definitely suppress Ye Fan’s arrogant demeanor. Moreover, Liu Yuan has also assured me that Ye Fan will be ruined today.”
A man stood in the shadows, and Zheng Zhilong bowed and scraped before him.
“Liu Yuan? Does he even qualify?”
The man spoke gloomily, his words full of disdain for Liu Yuan.
“Yes, yes, yes, your subordinate thinks the same, but Liu Yuan spoke with great certainty. I don’t think he’s lying. Perhaps he has truly found Ye Fan’s weakness.”
He wanted to ask Liu Yuan what method he had, but Liu Yuan was tight-lipped and didn’t want to reveal anything. Helplessly, he could only guess.
“Hmph, I hope he won’t disappoint me this time. And you, Zheng Zhilong, you have disappointed me twice. If there’s a next time, I will make you understand what it means to be worse than dead.”
The man’s icy voice echoed in Zheng Zhilong’s ears, causing Zheng Zhilong’s body to tremble violently.
He did not doubt the man’s abilities at all. Once he was angered, he would surely die.
“Boss, please rest assured, this time, Ye Fan will definitely be defeated at the appraisal convention.”
Patting his chest, Zheng Zhilong vowed confidently.
…
At the same time, in the Liu family’s private room, people from the other three families were present.
“Liu Yuan, you are the young master of the Liu family, yet you have been taught a lesson by such trash twice. Not only have you disgraced the Liu family, but you have also disgraced our Dark Alliance.”
Looking at Liu Yuan, Zhao Danfeng said with a face full of icy chill.
They belonged to the same Dark Alliance, and their honor and disgrace were shared. Yet, Liu Yuan had been taught a lesson by Ye Fan twice.
This was equivalent to slapping the faces of their four families, so how could the other three not be angry?
Liu Yuan curved his lips into a cold smile.
“Ye Fan, this time, he is bound to die.”
Seeing Liu Yuan’s firm tone, the three exchanged glances, and all saw confusion in each other’s eyes.
“Liu Yuan, have you prepared some hidden trick?”
Wu Liuding lowered his voice, looking at Liu Yuan and asking.
This Liu Yuan was the most incompetent among the four of them. What method could he have to deal with Ye Fan?
He hadn’t understood Ye Fan before, but after the recent incident, they had a preliminary understanding of Ye Fan.
This man was deeply calculating and possessed sophisticated methods.
If they couldn’t find his weakness and strike a fatal blow, it was best not to provoke him.
Hearing Wu Liuding’s question, Liu Yuan curved his lips into a cold smile: “This is a secret, it cannot be revealed.”
Saying this, he picked up his glass of red wine and took a sip, appearing quite profound and unfathomable.
Seeing Liu Yuan like this, the three simultaneously rolled their eyes at him.
Their eyes were filled with disdain.
“Liu Yuan, I hope this time you won’t disappoint us.”
Wang Qingfeng finally said coldly, his icy voice perfectly matching his frosty face.
Liu Yuan glanced at him indifferently, “This young master has his own plans for this matter, so you don’t need to worry about it.”
