Chapter 788: Chapter 784: Layout
At that mont, Wang Hongsheng said, “Mr. Ye, it’s really not suitable to talk in the corridor. Enemies should try to resolve, not deepen, conflicts. Please give a chance to explain. Young man, it’s better not to be too hotheaded.”
“Ha!” Ye Fan scoffed disdainfully, “So what if I am hotheaded? When you’ve kicked the iron plate, you co knocking and ask for forgiveness; yet, if it were just an ordinary person, they’d deserve to be tornted to death by your son, right? Where in the world does such cheapness exist?”
“Mr. Ye, I know I was wrong, I’ll pay…” Wang Kaichen said hastily, begging as he heard this.
People like him feared most those whose backing was stronger than theirs, as everything he had was dependent on his father being the vice mayor.
“Scram!” Ye Fan detested the cowardly, bullying type like Wang Kaichen and, without politeness, kicked him away.
Wang Kaichen scread miserably, flying two or three ters away and lying on the ground, unable to get up imdiately.
Wang Hongsheng pointed at Ye Fan with an extrely displeased expression, “How can you hit soone?”
“I just did, what are you going to do about it?” Ye Fan replied disdainfully, “If you keep rambling here, believe it or not, I’ll hit you too!”
Intimidated by Ye Fan, Wang Hongsheng’s montum imdiately deflated; he truly feared Ye Fan’s unreasonable aggression. Ye Fan, being tall and robust and not restraining his aura at the mont, indeed made Wang Hongsheng a bit scared.
“Humph, unreasonable! I, Wang Hongsheng, am not necessarily afraid of your backing!” After dropping this face-saving line, he went to help Wang Kaichen.
Ye Fan couldn’t be bothered with the father and son. He walked to the door, opened it, entered, then imdiately shut it with a “bang.”
The next day, Friday, Ye Fan finally took the ti to handle those three million yuan and that strand of South Sea pearl necklace.
He kept the South Sea pearl necklace and deposited the three million in the bank.
At noon, Ye Fan received an email notification, knowing that the information he wanted about Wang Hongsheng, Wang Kaichen, and An Qiye had arrived.
After having lunch with Lu Xiaoman at noon, Ye Fan drove back to the Dingsheng International Hotel to open his laptop and review the materials about Wang Hongsheng, Wang Kaichen, and An Qiye.
Having spent an afternoon, Ye Fan finished reading and carefully analyzing the information on these three individuals. He nodded in satisfaction, quite confident about making Wang Hongsheng step down prematurely. This old man Wang Hongsheng was indeed no good egg, constantly involved in dirty deeds.
Reflecting for a while, Ye Fan started strategizing against Wang Hongsheng, making several phone calls. The last one was to Tantai Wanrong.
“Aunt Wanrong, are you free tonight?” Ye Fan called and asked, “I’d like to have dinner with you.”
Tantai Wanrong pondered briefly, “Today is Friday. I am free tonight, but I can’t have dinner with you. Yaoyao has started her college entrance exams; she needs absolute peace these days. She and you don’t get along, so you can’t see her for now.”
“Is sothing the matter?” She imdiately asked with concern.
“There is indeed sothing I need your help with,” Ye Fan said.
“How about this? After I drop Yaoyao at her school for the evening self-study, I’ll drive to et you. How does that sound?” Tantai Wanrong said.
Ye Fan naturally had no problem: “Sounds good.”
After the call, Ye Fan logged into the Master of Truth World website and anonymously posted a task about Wang Hongsheng, offering a bit of influence as a reward.
After distributing the task and since it was not yet ti for dinner and he wasn’t planning to et Lu Xiaoman for dinner at Huayang Martial Arts Dojo because he had a eting with Tantai Wanrong in the evening, he still had so free ti.
Since he was free anyway, Ye Fan simply browsed the task bulletin of the Master of Truth World, looking for tasks suitable for him to undertake.
He hadn’t expected that after only browsing for seven or eight minutes, his account suddenly prompted that the task he had posted had already been taken.
Ye Fan couldn’t help but be slightly surprised at how quickly the masters of the virtual world operated. However, he soon realized that dealing with Wang Hongsheng required no control at all, much less did he need the other party to fully tackle Wang Hongsheng on his own. Perhaps soone not from China had snapped up the task.
Once he confird that the task had been accepted, Ye Fan continued browsing the task bulletin board and found there were two tasks he could do, with rewards of three and four points of control power respectively. Unfortunately, these two tasks required him to travel abroad for half a month, so he had to let them go.
At a little past seven in the evening, Ye Fan drove and stopped in front of the entrance to Newcor Park to wait for Tantai Wanrong.
eting at Newcor Park was Tantai Wanrong’s suggestion, ever since she had played there once, she had grown fond of the tranquility of the park.
After waiting around for over ten minutes, Tantai Wanrong arrived.
Ye Fan watched as Tantai Wanrong stepped out of her car, suddenly wearing a casual, loose long dress, her long hair simply done up, full of dostic charm yet in no way diminishing her elegance and grace.
“Aunt Wanrong,” Ye Fan couldn’t help but smile, and he happily approached her.
Tantai Wanrong smiled sweetly at Ye Fan, saying, “How long have you been waiting, Auntie?”
She spoke and without waiting for Ye Fan’s reply, headed towards the trunk of the car.
“I’ve also just arrived a little while ago,” Ye Fan said, following behind Tantai Wanrong to the back of the car.
Tantai Wanrong opened the trunk and said to Ye Fan, “Take out the picnic mat.”
Ye Fan bent down to take out the picnic mat and noticed it was new and had been washed, probably because Tantai Wanrong had played in Newcor Park last Sunday and then prepared it for another visit to the park.
Holding the picnic mat, Ye Fan felt quite pleased, guessing that Tantai Wanrong planned to stay in Newcor Park for over two hours.
Next, Ye Fan and Tantai Wanrong walked shoulder to shoulder into the park, chatting as they walked closely together.
They reached a deeper part of the park where Tantai Wanrong pointed to a patch of grass and said, “Let’s settle here. Let’s talk business first.”
“Okay,” Ye Fan responded, and spread the picnic mat on the grass patch pointed out by Tantai Wanrong.
Then, the two of them took off their shoes and sat down on the picnic mat, facing each other with crossed legs.
Tantai Wanrong, wearing a long dress, sat cross-legged without worrying about exposure.
“Xiaofan, what did you want to talk to about?” Tantai Wanrong took the initiative to ask.
Ye Fan hesitated for a mont before saying, “Aunt Wanrong, how is your relationship with Wang Hongsheng?”
In fact, he had already known from Wang Hongsheng’s information that Tantai Wanrong did not have a good relationship with Wang Hongsheng and there were hints of political rivalry. Of course, it wasn’t to say that Wang Hongsheng and Tantai Wanrong, the deputy mayor, were adversaries; he was rely aligned with another figure.
However, knowing this, he couldn’t just say it outright.
“Not good,” Tantai Wanrong directly stated. In front of Ye Fan, there was no need to be as cautious as she was with others.
Ye Fan nodded, “That’s good. I’m preparing to deal with Wang Hongsheng.”
“Has he hard you?” Tantai Wanrong asked slightly surprised and instinctively.
