"Delicious, truly delicious."
"I never expected a delicate young lady like you, who can't even handle simple chores, to prepare such a feast."
"You're amazing. Whoever marries you will be truly blessed!"
Ye Fei said cheerfully, praising her.
"Aren't you my fiancé?"
"If anyone is to marry me, it's you!"
He Jingyao responded.
"That won't do, we're about to break off our engagement."
"Besides, my heart belongs only to my senior sister."
"That's absolutely out of the question."
Ye Fei's head almost became a rattle as he refused repeatedly.
This outcome was within her expectations, but she couldn't help but feel a touch of disappointment.
However, she quickly composed herself and then said,
"Hurry up and eat, you talk too much!"
The topic was soon brushed aside by the two of them.
After Ye Fei had eaten and drunk his fill, he learned that the whitening cream he had developed had sold out across the city, with many suppliers demanding immediate increases in supply to resolve the shortage.
Only then did Ye Fei feel completely at ease.
Now, even the Song family could no longer do anything to them.
"Excellent, I have successfully completed my mission."
Ye Fei rarely showed his joy, and it was evident he was quite happy.
After bidding each other goodnight, Ye Fei returned to his room to rest.
The next day, he woke up leisurely when the sun was high in the sky.
He had just finished breakfast when his phone rang with a ding-ding-ding sound.
Ye Fei answered without even looking at the caller ID.
"Ye Fei, it's me, Yuan Bing."
"Today is my birthday, and you promised to come to my birthday banquet. You must come, I'll be waiting for you!"
Yuan Bing's voice traveled through the receiver to Ye Fei's ears.
If she hadn't called, he would have completely forgotten about it.
"Alright, Miss, I understand. I will definitely come."
"See you tonight."
After hanging up, Ye Fei couldn't help but yawn.
He was so tired that he wished he could sleep until he was completely out of it.
But now, he had to attend the birthday banquet, so he had to prepare a birthday gift.
He rummaged through his home and finally found a transparent glass jar.
He decided to make a scar-removal cream himself.
If he remembered correctly, that woman had a five-centimeter long scar below her arm.
It looked like an old wound.
Ye Fei went directly to his room, closed the door, and started working on it.
The formula for the scar-removal cream was already imprinted in his mind.
After preparing all the medicinal ingredients, he immediately began refining them.
This was a secret technique unique to their sect.
Only by using their sect's methods could the best results be achieved.
The effectiveness of the whitening cream last time was actually a few percent lower than the whitening cream he made himself.
But it was enough.
After some tinkering, Ye Fei extracted all the essence from the medicinal ingredients.
Then, Ye Fei sped up his actions, muttering incantations while his hands worked non-stop. An hour later, a milky-white ointment with a faint medicinal fragrance appeared before Ye Fei.
"Not bad, not bad. It seems my technique has improved again."
Ye Fei picked up a bit, observed it carefully, and then smelled it. He found that both its color and effectiveness were purer than what he had made a year ago.
After tidying up, he poured all the scar-removal cream into the glass jar.
"Alright, you'll be the birthday gift!"
Ye Fei clapped his hands, appearing very satisfied.
He informed the nanny and, seeing that it was almost time, Ye Fei took a taxi to the hotel.
This time, Yuan Bing's birthday banquet was attended by young people of similar age to her.
And the hotel was still the Cloud Top Hotel.
When Ye Fei's taxi arrived at the main entrance of the Cloud Top Hotel, even the taxi driver couldn't help but look at Ye Fei a few extra times.
The drivers of the luxury cars parked around were also stunned.
They had never seen a young man arrive at a banquet by taxi, especially while carrying a paper bag.
Since he didn't know which private room the woman was in, Ye Fei decided to go in and rest for a moment.
However, before he could enter, he was stopped by a security guard at the entrance.
Especially seeing Ye Fei in casual wear, he didn't look like a rich person at all. The security guard's gaze scanned Ye Fei with suspicion.
"Sir, who are you looking for?"
One of the security guards asked dutifully.
Seeing his polite attitude, Ye Fei was about to answer.
However, before he could speak, he was interrupted by a skinny security guard next to him.
"Do we need to ask?"
"Look at this kid, in what way does he look like a rich person?"
"Look at his flashy attire, his shoes are even inlaid with colorful fake gems. It's truly laughable!"
"You're not allowed to enter!"
"Get lost!"
"Don't block the way!"
The security guard said disdainfully.
Ye Fei, known for his temper, almost slapped him, but since he was attending a birthday banquet today, he restrained himself and chose not to get into a conflict with the security guard.
"You're new here, aren't you?"
Ye Fei said coldly.
"So what if I'm new? My brother-in-law is a supervisor here!"
"I advise you, while I'm in a good mood, to leave here quickly, otherwise, I'll beat you until your teeth are scattered!"
This security guard was naturally inclined to bully those he perceived as weaker. When he encountered someone like Ye Fei, he naturally went all out to oppress him.
"Apologize!"
"Apologize to me immediately!"
Ye Fei flashed forward, grabbed the security guard by the collar, and pushed him back. The security guard was directly pushed to the ground by Ye Fei.
This action directly ignited the security guard's rage.
"You brat, how dare you push me!"
"I won't let you off!"
Insulted, the security guard immediately pulled out his electric baton from behind, clearly intending to teach Ye Fei a lesson.
"Sir, please leave!"
"I'll hold him off for you!"
The other security guard urged him urgently.
"Don't worry, he can't hurt me."
As the security guard menacingly prepared to strike Ye Fei, Yuan Bing, who had rushed over after receiving Ye Fei's call, witnessed the scene.
In an instant, Yuan Bing's face turned pale with shock, and she immediately stopped him.
"Stop!"
"Stop immediately!"
"Don't hurt my friend!"
These words caused the security guard to pause for a moment. Especially seeing that the person who arrived was the young lady from the Yuan family, one of the four great families, the security guard immediately dropped the electric baton.
"Ye Fei, are you alright?"
Yuan Bing checked him carefully and, seeing that Ye Fei was unharmed, breathed a sigh of relief.
