Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 54 Ye Fei, the Great Trickster

Ye Fei noticed that this guy seemed a bit smarter and wasn't quick to believe him, so he continued, "Your name is Zhang Yu, right? You also work here. I've heard my sister mention you before."

Although Zhang Yu also worked at the sub-bureau, he was in a clerical position in the household registration department, so he couldn't be as well-known as Ming Yuexin.

Now, seeing this kid actually knew him, Zhang Yu immediately believed that he was indeed Ming Yuexin's brother. Moreover, hearing Ye Fei mention that Ming Yuexin had talked about him made him quite happy, so he eagerly asked, "What did your sister say about me?"

"How about it, do you believe me now?" Ye Fei didn't answer him but just looked at Zhang Yu with a sneer.

Fortunately, Zhang Yu had thick skin, having been through many trials, so he only felt a bit embarrassed momentarily. He quickly laughed it off, saying, "Oh, I was just being silly for a moment, you know how we police officers are, suspicious of everything, it's just a professional habit, brother, don't take it to heart!"

Ye Fei thought, "You're just a police officer, who cares," but he said, "Aren't you going to interrogate me? Let's continue then."

Although Zhang Yu was cursing Ye Fei inwardly for being so cheeky, he didn't dare offend him and instead smiled, saying, "Brother, you're joking. Since you're Ming's brother, you're naturally my brother too. Come, dear brother, let's chat."

Ye Fei sat confidently in the place where Zhang Yu had been sitting and asked, "It's been quite a while, I'm a bit thirsty now. Zhang Yu, do you have any water here?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhang Yu hurriedly replied, "I'll get you some." He personally took a disposable cup from the sterilization cabinet under the water dispenser, filled it with water, handed it to Ye Fei, and then asked, "Can you tell me, what does your sister say about me at home?"

Taking the cup, Ye Fei took a sip, cleared his throat, and said, "My sister says that you are not bad, but sometimes you just don't understand a girl's heart. You only know how to persist, but you've never even bought her a flower, let alone anything else."

Zhang Yu was delighted. It seemed that Ming Yuexin had her thoughts about him after all. He realized that perhaps his way of pursuing her was not quite right. So he hurriedly asked, "How does your sister want her future boyfriend to pursue her then?"

"Don't be fooled by my sister's usual seriousness; she actually loves romance. She once told me that she hopes her boyfriend will publicly kneel down to propose to her and then put the ring on her hand." Ye Fei pretended to sigh maturely, "Ah, girls these days, all influenced by those so-called romantic movies, having such ideas."

Initially, Zhang Yu thought publicly kneeling to propose was silly, but after hearing Ye Fei's words, he found them quite reasonable. Nowadays, didn't all the girls love watching those Korean dramas? Maybe Ming Yuexin was also influenced by them. So he secretly decided to go out and buy a ring, then publicly propose to Ming Yuexin in the bureau.

Although it was a bit embarrassing, thinking of Ming Yuexin's stunning face and fiery figure, he felt it was all worth it.

With his plan set, Zhang Yu could already envision Ming Yuexin shyly accepting his proposal. Overjoyed and grateful to Ye Fei, he decided to help him out, asking, "Brother, how did you manage to get your sister to bring you here?"

Ye Fei sighed, "Ah, don't mention it. I finished school this evening and wanted to go out and play with a few classmates. Unexpectedly, I ran into my sister, and you should know how serious she is. She let my other classmates go but brought me here specifically to give me a good lecture. Zhang Yu, you have to help me out."

Zhang Yu patted his chest and said, "Of course, even if you didn't ask, Zhang Yu would still help you out. Tell me, what do you need help with?"

Ye Fei replied, "It's nothing much, can you secretly let me out? I don't want my sister nagging at me in front of others."

Zhang Yu hesitated, "This doesn't seem right. If I let you out secretly, how do I explain it to your sister?"

Ye Fei cursed inwardly, thinking how clueless this guy was. It would be a miracle if he could ever win a girl over. If it weren't for the fear of causing a commotion and disturbing his aunt, he would have kicked him out long ago.

However, he put on a mysterious expression and whispered, "Do you really think my sister wants to catch me? She always dotes on me. She only brought me here because she didn't want to be accused of favoritism. If you let me go, she will definitely be happy."

Zhang Yu found his reasoning sound. Who wouldn't care for their younger sibling? It didn't make sense to bring them to the police station instead of protecting them. So he nodded and said, "Alright then, let's go out together. You can help me figure out what kind of ring to buy for your sister."

Ye Fei looked pleasantly surprised and excitedly said, "Zhang Ge, you're such a good person. I will definitely speak highly of you in front of my sister!"

"Great, great!" Zhang Yu, having easily won over his future "brother-in-law," was overjoyed. He urged Ye Fei to leave with him as if he were the one who had been detained.

The two of them managed to evade all eyes and sneak out of the sub-bureau. Although it was nearly midnight, many shops were still open. Zhang Yu pulled Ye Fei, who wanted to leave, and said, "Brother, come on, help me pick out a ring first, then I'll treat you to a big meal!"

Ye Fei thought that he wouldn't be able to sleep if he went back now, so he decided to stay and play with this silly guy. He nodded and followed Zhang Yu into a jewelry store.

Although Zhang Yu's father was just a deputy bureau chief, he was well off. Therefore, Zhang Yu had no shortage of money. After entering the jewelry store, he waved generously and said, "Brother, go ahead and pick. I believe you will choose something you like, and your sister will surely love it."

Even if he hadn't said anything, Ye Fei would have taken the opportunity to pick out the ring. So after hearing Zhang Yu's words, he immediately ran to the ring section. Without looking at the styles, he only checked the prices and started selecting. Unfortunately, it was just a small store with not many high-end pieces.

The most expensive one was a white gold diamond ring. Ye Fei pointed at it and said, "This one will do. I've been here with my sister before, and she really liked this ring. She said she hoped one day a prince charming would personally put it on her finger."

Zhang Yu didn't expect to find the one Ming Yuexin had set her eyes on. Excited, he walked over to Ye Fei, glanced at the price tag, and looked a bit dumbfounded.
