When talking about this matter, the helplessness on Wu Mei's face became even more pronounced.

She had refused Hu Yuanbin more than once, and had clearly told him that it was impossible for her to like him.

But Hu Yuanbin was like a persistent dog-skin plaster, never giving up, relentlessly pestering her!

Wu Mei had no way to deal with him at all.

Even using Ye Xunhuan as a shield just now was a spur-of-the-moment idea, hoping that Hu Yuanbin would back off because of Ye Xunhuan.

But seeing Hu Yuanbin like that just now, it was almost impossible to make him back off.

"All right, but he probably won't give up that easily!" Ye Xunhuan said softly to Wu Mei.

"I know." Wu Mei nodded and said a little embarrassedly, "I might cause you trouble from here on. I hope you..."

"It's nothing for me," Ye Xunhuan said indifferently.

He didn't care about Hu Yuanbin at all. If this guy didn't come to make trouble for him, fine. But if he did, Ye Xunhuan certainly wouldn't go easy on him.

"But this guy has quite a background..."

"What background?" Ye Xunhuan asked curiously.

"He comes from the Hu family in Longxi, which is the top family there," Wu Mei said softly. "And his father is in the National Security Bureau..."

This was why Wu Mei had no way to handle Hu Yuanbin. If he were just an ordinary person, daring to pester her like this, she would have beaten him so badly that even his mother wouldn't recognize him.

It was precisely because Hu Yuanbin came from the Hu family in Longxi, and his father was in the National Security Bureau, that she had no way.

And if she used someone else as a shield, it certainly wouldn't scare off Hu Yuanbin, and might even bring disaster to them.

But Ye Xunhuan was different; this guy was one of the underground world's overlords. Even Hu Yuanbin's father had to think twice about the consequences of offending Ye Xunhuan.

So Wu Mei brought out Ye Xunhuan, hoping it would make Hu Yuanbin back off.

After hearing Wu Mei's brief description of the Hu family, Ye Xunhuan showed an understanding expression: "No wonder you have no way to deal with this guy. Turns out he has a good father!"

Wu Mei nodded: "Yes, his father holds an important position in the National Security Bureau. Even though I've joined Hidden Dragon now, it's best not to offend them!"

Ye Xunhuan nodded in agreement.

Wu Mei was right; the connections between the National Security Bureau and Hidden Dragon are complicated. Even though Wu Mei's in Hidden Dragon now, and no longer part of the National Security Bureau, it's best not to offend them if possible.

"If he investigates me, it'll be easy," Ye Xunhuan said calmly. "He'll definitely find out I'm married, and my wife is Qiu Ruoxi. Then, you..."

"We'll take it one step at a time!" Wu Mei said softly. "But sorry for involving you this time!"

Saying this, Wu Mei couldn't help but chuckle wryly.

"Not really an involvement. It's just the Hu family. If they're not stupid, they should know what to do. It's you who should be prepared for them to pester once they find out my identity..."

"I know, but at least I can have one quiet day." Wu Mei breathed out slowly: "All right, let's not talk about this anymore. Come, I'll treat you to a meal!"

The invitation from a beautiful woman was impossible for Ye Xunhuan to refuse, so he nodded in agreement.

Soon after, Ye Xunhuan and Wu Mei drove away from the police station.

Just as they left, Hu Yuanbin also walked out of the police station. Watching the direction where Ye Xunhuan and Wu Mei disappeared, a fierce look flashed in Hu Yuanbin's eyes!

"No one in this world has ever taken a woman from me!"

......

Ye Xunhuan and Wu Mei found a nearby restaurant, casually ordered some food, and ate while chatting and laughing.

After the meal, Wu Mei parted ways with Ye Xunhuan.

After separating from Wu Mei, Ye Xunhuan went to find Xiao Jiu, telling him everything Wu Mei had said and also instructed him to go to the hospital for a check-up immediately.

After all, this was a matter of life and death and couldn't be taken lightly.

And Xiao Jiu, being someone who values life, went to the hospital immediately after hearing Ye Xunhuan.

With Xiao Jiu at the hospital, Ye Xunhuan couldn't just stay there any longer.

Taking advantage of the fact that it was still early, Ye Xunhuan returned to the company.

Ye Xunhuan originally wanted to visit He Sichan, but after reconsideration, he decided against it!

After all, he didn't know if there were people secretly watching, and for He Sichan's safety, Ye Xunhuan felt it was better not to visit her.

If he didn't go to He Sichan and even if her mother appeared, she probably couldn't do anything to He Sichan, right?

If he got too close to He Sichan, then everything would be hard to predict.

After all, from the people who had been slaughtered by Olivia at the villa in Xiangshui Pavilion, it was clear that they suspected He Luo was with Ye Xunhuan.

So Ye Xunhuan chose not to find He Sichan and instead went back to the company.

Meanwhile, as Ye Xunhuan returned to the company, in a hotel in Jiangzhong City, Dongfang Qingyu stood respectfully in front of a youthful man with delicate features, sword eyebrows, and starry eyes.

Behind the young man stood a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man seemed like an ice man who had walked out of a frozen cave, exuding a chill that pierced to the bone, with a face like it was carved from stone, devoid of any expression.

Dongfang Qingyu stood respectfully like a servant, quietly waiting for the young man to speak.

After an unknown amount of time, the young man slowly spoke: "You say Marshall Ye Xunhuan and Dongfang Shu have a fling?"

"I'm not sure; that's just the rumor," Dongfang Qingyu answered cautiously!

"So, you're not certain?"

"Yes!" Dongfang Qingyu quickly nodded: "But seeing how close the two of them are, the rumor might be true!"

The young man nodded slightly: "You have no ability to fight back in front of Ye Xunhuan?"

"Yes, I couldn't even see how he attacked; my arm was broken by him!" Dongfang Qingyu said with lingering fear.

"It seems the position of an overlord in the underground world has quite a high gold content." The young man said indifferently: "However, no matter if he's an overlord of the underground, he can't touch my woman!"

"Since he dares to touch her, I'll send him to hell, reducing the top ten overlords by one!"

Saying this, a sinister and fierce look flashed in the young man's eyes!
