Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 86 Goddess's Surprise (2)

Xiao Hanyue, as an experienced person, could easily see the pride and admiration in her daughter's eyes when she spoke of Ye Fei. She could also see the deep affection in her daughter's gaze towards Ye Fei now.

Knowing that her daughter and Ye Fei had transitioned from childhood playmates to true lovers, Xiao Hanyue was extremely happy. She couldn't help but tease her daughter, "Well, you little girl, now that you have a husband, you don't need your mom anymore. You even said I worry too much!"

Although Lin Ling had been engaged to Ye Fei since childhood and had deep feelings for him, and there were no outsiders present, she still couldn't help but blush a bit. She coyly retorted, "Mom, what are you saying? I'll ignore you!" and quickly walked inside, leaving Ye Yunqi and Ye Ningsuan laughing.

Lin Ling had always appeared composed in front of Ye Fei, rarely showing such a shy demeanor. However, at that moment, Ye Fei couldn't help but feel captivated by her sudden shyness.

That hint of bashfulness was no less charming than Ye Yunqi's. It made him feel a bit itchy inside, thinking that this fiancee of his was indeed quite appealing.

Seeing Ye Fei's somewhat mischievous expression, Ye Yunqi, who understood him well, could easily guess what he was thinking. She leaned in close to Ye Fei and asked, "Brother, do you want to 'eat' Ling?"

Ye Fei didn't want to hide anything from Ye Yunqi regarding Lin Ling. He nodded gently and whispered back, "Yes, without a challenge, it's too dull. Maybe when you both team up, you might just be able to handle my moves. See how good I am to you? I've found you a helper!"

"Pah! You scoundrel! Who said we'd team up with you? Don't even think about it!" Ye Yunqi playfully slapped Ye Fei's arm and then went to catch up with Lin Ling.

While she didn't mind sharing Ye Fei with Lin Ling, she wasn't ready to share in those intimate moments just yet.

After catching up with Lin Ling, Ye Yunqi whispered something in her ear that made her blush. When Ye Fei walked over, Lin Ling revealed her mischievous side, grabbing one of Ye Fei's ears on each side, causing him to yell in pain. Witnessing this, Ye Ningsuan and Xiao Hanyue chuckled softly.

Meanwhile, Liu Yiru had taken quite a few twists and turns following Yaya and finally stopped in front of a very ordinary guest room.

By now, she understood that the little girl didn't need her help with anything specific but had intentionally sought her out.

Despite this realization, Liu Yiru felt more curious than afraid. As Ye Fei had mentioned, this was the Ye family's territory, and she possessed considerable martial arts skills, so she had nothing to worry about.

Yaya gently knocked on the door and called out in a sweet voice, "Sister, we're here."

"Come in, the door's unlocked." A pleasant female voice came from inside, further reassuring Liu Yiru.

After entering the room and seeing the woman smiling at her, Liu Yiru couldn't help but freeze. It wasn't because of the woman's nearly as stunning beauty as her own, but because of her identity.

The woman before her was none other than Li Xue, the CEO of Autumn Group, who had only appeared in public once before but was unforgettable in the entire Wanhai business community.

Although Li Xue's public status was not inferior to Liu Yiru's, as she was both her boss's mother and a childhood idol, she felt slightly nervous facing Liu Yiru. She politely nodded to Liu Yiru and greeted her, "Aunt Liu, hello!"

"President Li, what is this?" Hearing Li Xue's address, Liu Yiru became even more puzzled.

"Don't call me President Li, Auntie, if you don't mind, just call me Xue." Li Xue politely suggested, then went straight to the point, "Auntie Liu, you must be wondering why I wanted to meet you secretly before the banquet started, right?"

"I am a little puzzled." Liu Yiru nodded, growing more and more confused.

The other party not only referred to herself as a junior, but also showed a respectful attitude towards her, as if she was not a big corporation's CEO who could sit on an equal footing with herself, but rather a small employee in her own company.

Li Xue smiled and handed a few printed sheets to Liu Yiru, saying, "Take a look at these first, maybe then you'll understand."

Liu Yiru, with some hesitation, took the sheets and glanced over them briefly. She was so astonished that she couldn't speak. It was a secret agreement, and one that had been ratified by the Supreme Court.

The agreement clearly stated that in the future development of Wanhai, Autumn Group would defer to Feiyun Group. In case of any competition for interests, Autumn Group would automatically step back. Moreover, when Feiyun encountered difficulties, Autumn Group would do its utmost to help.

Liu Yiru had managed Feiyun Group for so long, and she had signed countless contracts, but she had never seen such an agreement before. From what was described in the agreement, it seemed like Autumn Group had almost sold itself to Feiyun Group.

As a seasoned business professional, Liu Yiru was as familiar with contracts as they come. She was well aware that there were no deceptive traps or loopholes in this agreement.

Autumn Group had placed itself in the most unfavorable position.

In fact, it could be said that if she wanted to harm Autumn Group after signing this agreement, all she needed to do was create a few minor issues, and she could easily bankrupt them.

After carefully reviewing the contract, Liu Yiru looked at Li Xue in extreme astonishment. Li Xue smiled and asked, "Auntie Liu, do you understand our intention now?"

Liu Yiru nodded and said, "I understand, but I don't understand why you are doing this."

Li Xue had received strict orders from Ye Fei not to disclose the truth to Liu Yiru, so she could only feign helplessness and said, "Actually, I don't understand either. But this agreement was drafted by my boss personally. I'm just an employee, so naturally, I follow my boss's instructions."

"Then who is your boss?" Liu Yiru was filled with curiosity about the boss behind Li Xue. No matter how she thought about it, she couldn't understand why that person would be so supportive of her.

Li Xue shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't reveal his identity until my boss agrees. But I can tell you with certainty, Auntie, that you can have complete trust in my boss. Even if the whole world were to oppose you, he would definitely stand by your side."

Liu Yiru's puzzled expression made Li Xue somewhat reluctant, so she wanted to hint at something, "Moreover, our Autumn Group was established by him to help both Liu and Ye families through their current difficulties. I can only say this much. In short, you just need to know that our Autumn Group exists solely for you."
