After they returned to the villa, Ye Fan changed Qiu Mu-Cheng's dressing with care.
He wanted her to stay home and rest, but the silly girl insisted on returning to the office.
Life still had to go on.
She couldn't set her work aside because she wanted to spend more time with Ye Fan.
Mufan Group might not mean much to Ye Fan, but its significance to Qiu Mu-Cheng was only second to that of Ye Fan.
This company was the result of Ye Fan's hard labors.
She would willingly spend the rest of her life watching over and guarding Ye Fan's life work.
Qiu Mu-Cheng knew that she was of no help to Ye Fan when it came to the martial arts circle.
The only thing that she could do for Ye Fan was to watch over Mufan Group.
That explained why Qiu Mu-Cheng had stubbornly stood her ground against the Lv family, a powerful martial arts family, during Ye Fan's year of absence.
She had only been sent to the military by Lu Tian-He for her safety as a last resort.
Ye Fan did not stop Qiu Mu-Cheng since she had insisted on going back to the office. Instead, he drove her there personally.
He did not linger at Mufan Group and instead returned to Mount Yunding Villa immediately.
He summoned Li Er.
"Mr Chu, did you...ask for me?"
Li Er felt fear instinctively even though Ye Fan had not said a word. He could not help the stammer in his voice.
He had clearly heard about what Ye Fan had done in Jiangbei.
He had slaughtered the Lv clan, the most powerful family in Jiangbei.
He had killed more than a hundred martial artists mercilessly at West Lake.
Even though he had not seen it with his own eyes, Li Er had still been terrified by the sheer massacre.
He had known Ye Fan for more than two years.
Li Er could not imagine the power that Ye Fan had amassed within the brief period of time and how he had grown from a meek young man of low stature who had married into the Qiu family into someone so powerful.
He had destroyed a powerful clan so easily.
The terrifying extent of Ye Fan's power had exceeded Li Er's imagination.
Li Er could feel nothing but awe for Ye Fan
now.
"That's right." Ye Fan nodded slightly before picking a cup of tea from the table and sipping lightly at it. "You've heard of what happened in Jiangbei, haven't you?"
Ye Fan continued sipping at his tea. He did not look at Li Er while he spoke.
Something flickered across Li Er's eyes. He had no idea why Ye Fan was asking him this all of a sudden. Nevertheless, he decided to answer the young man honestly. Tve heard some news."
"Well, share what you think about what you've heard," said Ye Fan.
Li Er answered hastily. "The Lv family exploited their wealth and insulted Mr Chu's family first. They deserved what they got. Even if Mr Chu had not destroyed the Lv family, I would have tried to eliminate them to seek justice for Miss Qiu and Mdm Ye."
Li Er knew his way around his words and was quick to speak what he knew would
please Ye Fan.
