“Umm, Ms. Qiu, I didn't mean anything.”
Li Er felt the change in the atmosphere in the car and laughed awkwardly, realizing that he had said something inappropriate.
However, Qiu Mucheng puffed up her cheeks angrily and replied, “Hmph! If you try to lead Ye Fan astray again, you'll definitely get it from me.”
“No, I wouldn't dare. How can we be fit to lead Mr. Chu, who's so dignified and unparalleled in this age? Besides, this can't be taught. It's simply wired into a man's DNA. Hehe...” Li Er chuckled.
“You... Just shut up.”
Qiu Mucheng was extremely infuriated with the man.
However, she was not going to argue with him then.
Meanwhile, outside the car window, Ye Fan did not care about what the people around him were discussing. He was unable to stop worrying after knowing that Angie's life was in danger.
“What happened? Why did Angie die during her wedding? I want to know exactly what happened,” Ye Fan asked coldly.
Compared to his previous calm and indifferent state, the man was unable to remain composed after knowing that Angie was in a life-and-death situation.
Even though Ye Fan and Angie were not a couple like MengWanyu thought, both of them definitely did not share an ordinary relationship.
Angie had left a deep impression on Ye Fan after their journey through the rainforest together.
Ye Fan was deeply attracted to the woman's kind heart, cheekiness and adorable nature.
Besides, long before their trip to the rainforest, they already had an encounter with each other.
It was even before Ye Fan was chased away from the Chu family.
At that time, as Angie was being seen as a monster, she was often ostracized and bullied by others.
As for Ye Fan, even though he was also ostracized by the Chu family, he was fearless. Whenever he witnessed someone being bullied, he would not
hesitate to stand up for the victim.
That was despite the fact that the man often ended up getting beaten up and suffering injuries.
That was also how Ye Fan and Angie first met each other.
However, they did not get to spend a lot of time with each other.
Not long after their meeting, Ye Fan stopped seeing Angie around. As time passed, he couldn't seem to even rememberthe woman's name.
Both of them had originally thought that they were just passersby in each other's lives, until their previous encounter at the Boguia Rainforest, when Angie started narrating her childhood tales to Ye Fan.
It was then that he realized that the sweet girl in front of him was the same girl he had helped years back.
It was also during that time when Ye Fan got to know that he was Angie's only friend back then.
However, he chose not to let the woman know what he had found out.
He did not want too many people to know his background.
As such, even until this day, Angie was still unaware that Ye Fan was, in fact, the person who often stood up for her when she was young.
But despite that, to the woman, Ye Fan was already one of the most important people in her life.
Meanwhile, even though Ye Fan was still in the midst of questioning Meng Wanyu, King of Fighters tightened the rope that was wrapped around her with a forceful tug.
Meng Wanyu let out an agonizing cry as her skin tore apart with blood tricking down the rope. The woman was in so much pain that tears started streaming down her face, and she was unable to speak.
“Come clean now! Who is Angie? Is she from the Chu Sect? Also, what is her relationship with Ye Fan? Is Ye Fan acting as the Chu Sect's spy in China? Spit the truth!”
Mo Gucheng pulled Meng Wanyu toward him and grabbed her neck, questioning her. What Meng Wanyu said earlier on had no doubt given him something to use against Ye Fan.
At the martial arts meeting in China previously, he had made a suggestion to strip off Ye Fan's title and punish him for committing treason.
However, as there wasn't enough supporting evidence, Sword Saint, Sword God and some others had objected to that proposal. In the end, what Ye Fan had gotten was just a random punishment that did not affect him at all.
