Chapter 59 A Low-Key Personage
Chapter 59 A Low-Key Personage
"It's nothing, really."
"I came to Jianghai to visit my relatives. When I heard about this jewelry exhibition, I decided to come
and take a look. But I did not expect to be denied entry by the security guard."
Ye Fan replied to Shen Fei's questions indifferently.
The chief of security, who had been trying to sneak away, nearly burst into tears when he heard this.
Shit, it's over.
Just as expected, Shen Fei turned to look at the fleeing security chief.
"You blind fool! Do you have any idea who you have offended?"
Shen Fei hmphed coldly and turned to look at the vice chairman of the jewelry association. "Mr. Wang, Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
you know what to do, right?"
The middle-aged man answered affirmatively. He frowned at the security chief and said coldly, "I think
there is no need for you to stay here any longer. Go collect your salary from payroll and get out of here.
We don't employ snobbish bastards like you."
"Please don't fire me. Vice chairman, I was wrong. I know it was my fault. I have elderly parents and
young children at home. And I am uneducated. If I lose this job, my family will starve-" The chief of
security looked like he was about to cry.
"Is this my problem? Get out of here!" The vice chairman turned green with anger and shook away the
security chief's hands.
Young Master Shen was the crown prince of Qianyi Group. And if the corporate prince was treating this
simply dressed man with such respect, it meant that the latter must be one of the top dogs; one who
liked to keep a low profile.
Since the security chief had offended such a low-key personage, he could only blame himself, and no
one else, for being unlucky.
"Forget it. It's fine as long as you know you are the one at fault."
"It's not easy making a living. This is just a small matter, so there is no need to go to extremes here."
Ye Fan waved his hand dismissively and expressed his wish not to pursue the matter. "But before I
leave, I would like to offer you a bit of advice. A person should be calm, kind and always have a smile
on his face."
"Yes yes yes. Thank you, sir. I, Wang Da-Lu, will adhere to your teachings." Tears were forming in the
security chief's red-rimmed eyes. Just then, he felt so much gratitude toward Ye Fan that he almost
called the latter "dad."
"Hmph, you can keep your job thanks to the benevolence of Mr. Chu. Otherwise, you would be out of
here this very day." The vice chairman scolded the security chief again, and then the trio walked toward
the exhibition hall.
Mr. Chu, this way. We will be using the VIP
entrance, not the one for bumpkins." Just then, Shen Fei called out to and guided Ye Fan to another
entrance.
In Shen Fei's opinions, only bumpkins would use the regular entrance.
"That bumpkin. He thinks he can follow us in here? What does he take this place for? A market? He
thinks he can get in just by pleading with and offering cigarettes to the guard?"
"What a joke."
"I will be too embarrassed to even walk in here with a bumpkin like him."
"Mu-Cheng, to be honest, he is not worthy of you. Only a man like Yu-Hao deserves to be with a
beautiful woman like you."
Qiu Mu-Cheng and her companions had just entered the exhibition hall. Meanwhile, Han Fei-Fei was
thinking about what Ye Fan had said earlier. And she could not help but mock his foolishness.
Fei-Fei, don't make fun of him. Ye Fan does have some merits."
"Merits? Mu-Cheng, stop joking. Why don't you tell me what merits that bumpkin has?" Han Fei-Fei
asked laughingly.
"He..." Qiu Mu-Cheng stayed silent for a long while, but she could not think of any merit that her
husband might have. In the end, she whispered, "He is honest. At least, he doesn't cause me trouble."
"Hahaha~"
"This is so funny."
"Honesty?"
"Well, it's the only merit that bumpkin has."
Han Fei-Fei was bent double with laughter, and the tears were about to pour from her eyes.
Sun Yu-Hao shook his head with a smile, his face full of disdain and mockery.
"Mm, Yu-Hao, why are there so many girls standing on the second floor?"
"And they are all so pretty?"
Just then, Han Fei-Fei saw the dozen or so beautiful ladies on the second floor. They were standing
respectfully on both sides of a corridor, as if they were waiting to receive VIPs. All of them were
wearing cheongsams and, with their delicate smiles that revealed pearly white teeth, they looked very
much like well-trained hostesses.
Sun Yu-Hao took a look and explained, "That is the VIP passage. The people who use that are the top
elites of Jianghai. But in the whole city, there aren't many who have the right to walk through that
passage. I think only the people at my father's level can do that. Even I do not have the right to walk
there.”
"Wah?"
"Really? It sounds like they are really amazing people." "I think I will be very happy, if I can become
their woman." Just then, Han Fei-Fei had stars in her eyes, and she was filled with envy.
She had assumed that Sun Yu-Hao was already one of the top dogs in Jianghai. But who would have
thought that there were many people in the city who were more powerful than him.
When he saw Han Fei-Fei's starry-eyed look, Sun Yu-Hao shook his head and laughed. "Fei-Fei, stop
dreaming. The people who can walk on the second floor are basically middle-aged men with their own
families. They even have kids already."
When Han Fei-Fei heard this, she lost her enthusiasm immediately. "That's true. The ones at the top of
the pyramid are usually old men. But, Mu-Cheng, if you marry Yu-Hao, you can have the right to stand
there with him. Maybe in twenty years time. And then you will be able to enjoy the respect and envy of
the people here."
But Sun Yu-Hao shook his head with a smile. "Fei-Fei, I do not need twenty years to earn the right to
stand there. I only need ten."
"Awesome!"
"Mu-Cheng, I really envy you. If it weren't for the fact that Yu-Hao has no interest in me, I would have
fought with you over him.” Han Fei-Fei's eyes shone brightly when she heard Sun Yu-Hao's proud and
confident voice.
"Mm?"
"Yu-Hao, they are not old men. There are two men who are our age?”
Just then, two young men were walking slowly through the VIP passage. When Han Fei-Fei saw them,
she cried out in excitement.
Sun Yu-Hao looked at them and sighed feelingly. "In this world, there are always exceptions. People
like them are probably at the very top of the pyramid. We can never hope to reach them. We had better
leave now."
Sun Yu-Hao knew that his status could not be compared to theirs, so he simply decided to stop looking
at them. And then he called for his two lady companions, as he prepared to leave the place.
But Han Fei-Fei was in the throes of excitement. "Wah, Mu-Cheng, the two boys are so good-looking."
"I want to marry them.”
"Especially the one in the black clothes. He dresses so simply. He is rich but not excessively proud.
Noble but not showy. He must be a low-key VIP. Someone like him must be easy to get along with. And
he definitely knows how to pamper his women. I want to marry him." Han Fei-Fei kept screaming in
excitement, and her face was flushed with agitation.
But when Qiu Mu-Cheng saw the back view of the man wearing a black short-sleeved shirt, she was
taken aback for a moment. "Isn't that Ye Fan?" she asked.
"Mu-Cheng, stop talking nonsense. That guy is a somebody. Even Yu-Hao thinks he cannot hope to
compare to that person. How could he be Ye Fan? I must try to get to know that boy." Han Fei-Fei
could not bring herself to believe that the low-key VIP could be her cousin's bumpkin husband.
"But he really looks like Ye Fan. Even the clothes are the same.” Qiu Mu-Cheng was the one who had
bought the black short-sleeved shirt, so she could recognize it clearly.
"Impossible. They are as different as heaven and earth. We can't compare them with each other. Mu-
Cheng, what should I do? I think I am falling in love with the low-key VIP," Han Fei-Fei said excitedly.
Sun Yu-Hao laughed derisively and said, "Mu-Cheng, you are mistaken. That is the VIP passage. It will
take me ten years to reach that place. As for him, he can struggle his whole life and never earn the
right to go there."
Sun Yu-Hao bragged indifferently.
Just then, the low-key personage, who had been walking slowly while surrounded by Shen Fei and the
others, suddenly came to a halt. He quietly turned, looked in the direction of Qiu Mu-Cheng and
laughed lightly. "Mu-Cheng, I have kept you waiting.”
The soft laughter drifted to them like a gentle breeze.
For a moment, Han Fei-Fei and her companions could feel the air thickening around them.
"Shit! How...how is this possible?"
Boom! Han Fei-Fei felt as if she had been struck by lightning, and could only look dumbfoundedly at Ye
Fan's bright smiling face.
This twist in the plot came as an unexpected shock to her. The low-key personage she had wanted to
surrender herself to was Ye Fan?
