228 Visiting Green Vine Club Again (2/2)

It wasn't until Zhou Qinya met Fang Qiong face to face did she realize why so many rich heirs were after her. Her elegance and confidence were unmatched by anyone she had seen.

”She is Fang… Fang Qiong? The Goddess of Jin City University? Her family owns over a few billion assets.” Qian Lulu stammered. Pan Li's face was as pale as a piece of paper. She had given all she had, trying to coax Chen Fan into her embrace. Despite Chen Fan's cold shoulder, she had been confident that, with time, she would be able to gain his trust and slowly win him over.

However, little did she know that Chen Fan already had a girlfriend. She was not only extremely attractive but also richer and smarter than her.

Even as Chen Fan's friends marveled at his luck, Qi Wangsun furrowed his brows and fell into deep thought. He had found some similarities between his strident fiancee and Fang Qiong.

Fang Qiong drove her red Audi model TT and arrived at Green Vines.

When they walked to the same vine-covered red gate that he saw last time, Chen Fan noticed that they were not the only visitors. Chen Fan furrowed his brows and walked in.

As soon as he entered the club, he was greeted by Song Zhe, Liu Daoyuan and their friends. The surprised looks when they saw Chen Fan suggested that they didn't expect to see Chen Fan again. Some of them wondered if Chen Fan was going to be officially accepted into the clique.

Unlike everyone else, Shen Junwen kept calm and sipped on his tea.

”Mr. Chen, you have finally arrived.” Tang Yifei rose to her feet and came over to Chen Fan in a few sultry steps. ”Xiao Qiong, can you please look after the boys for a second, I need to have a few words with Mr. Chen.”

So saying, Tang Yifei gestured Chen Fan to follow her. She then walked toward a side door. Chen Fan followed her closely.

The room boiled over as soon as the two left.

”Who the heck is he? Why does Sister Tang want to talk to him in private?”

”Just so! It's the first time I have ever seen Sister Tang talked to anyone with so much respect.”

”Fang Qiong, your childhood friend must be hiding something from us.”

Liu Daoyuan exclaimed. Fang Qiong's mind was filled with questions. If Chen Fan really was just the son of a county officer as she thought he was, then why did Sister Yifei speak to him so carefully. Zhong Yaoyao wanted to chime in and tell everyone what she knew, but the promise of being burnt alive made her think better of it.

She had woken up by the same nightmare for many nights. In her dream, she was surrounded by fire, and she watched as her body was burnt to a crisp before it was reduced to ashes.

Shen Junwen was still working on his tea, however, a cold light started to glow in his eyes.

Chen Fan followed the girl out of the tea room, to the backyard of the club. This yard was a textbook example of the private garden in Jiang Nan province: a windy path wrapped around the pearl-shaped pond that centered in the garden; along the path were painted pavilions and benches for resting, man-made rock hills with caves that fit only one person and ancient gnarly trees whose trunks were so slented that their branches were kissing the water.

Tang Yifei walked quietly with Chen Fan.

She was wearing a green Qipao with a high slit. Every step she took would expose her breathtaking thighs. Her snowy white hand was decorated with a green jade bracelet on her wrist. She wore her hair in a bun that rested high on her head. She looked like a young lady of the last century in a sexually charged ballroom dress during her debutant.

”Mr. Chen, should I call you Chen Fan or Master Chen?”

Tang Yifei paused and then fixed her stare on Chen Fan.

”Call me anything.” Chen Fan was unfazed after knowing his cover was blown. ”did Zhong Yaoyao tell you about it?”

”Yaoyao can't even look at you in your eyes, much less snitch on you.” Tang Yifei said: ”It was Junwen. Without his tip, I would never have thought that the famous Master Chen was Xiao Qiong's pursuer.”

”Shen Junwen?” Chen Fan was taken aback for a second and then he nodded. ”It must be because of the East Mountain Meadow project. I knew Xiao Qiong ever since we were children. Why can't I take our friendship to the next level?”

”Then why don't you tell her who you really are?” Tang Yifei cracked a smile. ”What will be the harm in it? Who would refuse you anyways, not me of course. ”

So saying, Tang Yifei looked to Chen Fan with a sultry glance that would render many men defenseless.

”Hehe.” Chen Fan cracked a smile and left it at that.

Tang Yifei would never understand the love between him and Fang Qiong. If he really wanted to be conspicuous, he might as well tell people that he was the North Mystic Celestial Lord. Not even an Immortal Cultivator could have resisted the temptation of dating someone so powerful. However, he was reborn as a mortal to reclaim the love that was pure and untainted.

By then a white-haired old man walked over to them and spoke to Tang Yifei respectfully.

”My lady, everything is ready. ”

After Tang Yifei nodded, the old man retreated behind Tang Yifei. Judging from the look of the old man, it was easy to tell that he must be a powerful dominating figure in public. However, in this room, he acted as if he was Tang Yifei's servant.

”Mr. Chen, I want you to know that I can make you disappear from this world on a whim.”

Tang Yifei cracked a faint smile. The alluring light in her eyes were replaced with an icy intent. She had finally put away her mask and revealed her true colors: the queen of Jiang Nan's underground world.

Suddenly, footsteps rose from all directions; they were all coming toward Chen Fan.
