Chapter 48 - 48 048 Can Only Be Like This for a Lifetime

48: Chapter 048: [Can Only Be Like This for a Lifetime] 48: Chapter 048: [Can Only Be Like This for a Lifetime] On that day at the Royal Garden, Jiang Qi, who encountered Chu Qingxue, was now striding over elegantly, with an attractive woman on his arm. Jiang Qi’s gaze shifted, and he also spotted Ye Chenfeng, a smirk appearing on his lips as he walked toward him with a smile. With a smile plastered on his face, Jiang Qi came up to Ye Chenfeng and Qiu Muran, greeting her, “Miss Qiu, long time no see!” His gaze was sharp as a sword, seemingly ready to burst forth at any moment. Jiang Qi’s eyes flickered as he addressed Ye Chenfeng, “We meet again. What a coincidence!” “Long time no see, Young Master Jiang!” Clearly, Qiu Muran also knew Jiang Qi and greeted him with a smile. “Isn’t this the wealthy and handsome guy? Still need roses? Let me recommend a few places for you, guaranteed cheap and fresh. Give them to this miss by your side, she’ll definitely like them!” From the get-go, sparks were flying between Ye Chenfeng and Jiang Qi. Qiu Muran was astonished; could it be Ye Chenfeng knew Jiang Qi, the Jiang Family’s eldest son? This fellow knows Sun Yuan as well as Jiang Qi? Could his identity be as simple as he says? “…”. With just one sentence, Ye Chenfeng had almost made Jiang Qi spit up blood again! “Brother Jiang Qi, is this your friend?” The beauty at Jiang Qi’s side asked, her eyes burning with uncontrollable excitement. “Yeah, the rich and handsome guy is my friend. He even gave me roses last time. Of course, don’t get me wrong, I’m not gay. I threw out those several hundred roses; I’m definitely not into that kind of stuff!” Suddenly, Ye Chenfeng dropped this bombshell. “Pfft!” If Qiu Muran weren’t so composed, she would have certainly burst into laughter on the spot. Jiang Qi’s skin prickled, his face turning pale in an instant, cold sweat streaming down as Ye Chenfeng went for the jugular. The woman beside him instinctively let go of Jiang Qi’s arm, her gaze shifting oddly between the two men. The news of two men exchanging several hundred roses was already eye-catching; should the protagonist turn out to be the heir to the Jiang Corporation Jiang Qi, it would likely sweep through Jiangnan and even make explosive headlines in the Divine Land. “Let’s go!” Jiang Qi promptly pulled his companion away; he couldn’t bear to stay at this place any longer. Ye Chenfeng watched Jiang Qi with disdain, “Tsk, is it really necessary to leave so quickly just because I threw out your roses?” “Err…” Even Qiu Muran was looking at Ye Chenfeng with a tinge of surprise, cautiously sizing him up. In her mind, troubling thoughts surfaced; could Ye Chenfeng really be…? “Whew!” Qiu Muran couldn’t help but shudder herself. A sly sparkle in his eye, Ye Chenfeng skillfully grabbed a knife and fork and began to dine elegantly. Meanwhile. “Brother Jiang Qi, what happened to you? Did you really give roses to that man?” The woman’s expression was strange as she questioned Jiang Qi. “Slap!” Jiang Qi sent the woman flying with a slap, bellowing at her, “Get lost, get out of here now!” The beauty was a new catch from the Jiangnan Media Institute that Jiang Qi had snagged recently. He had been preparing to win her over but did not expect to encounter such an incident at the Luminous Cup Restaurant. “You… you actually hit me? You’re just a gay, doomed to be someone’s bitch for life!” The girl, holding her swollen cheek, glared at Jiang Qi and cursed viciously. “I’ll kill you!” Jiang Qi was so enraged, his eyes bloodshot, as he choked the girl with both hands, exerting his strength violently. “Mmm, mmm…” seaʀᴄh thё nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The girl’s face flushed red, then gradually turned to a deathly pale, her hands beating Jiang Qi continuously, her legs kicking wildly. Crack, crack… As Jiang Qi exerted force, even the girl’s neck emitted a sound of breaking. Gradually, the girl stopped moving, her arms naturally falling to her sides, her kicking legs also ceasing, only her huge eyes staring wide like a pair of bells, as if her eyeballs were about to pop out. “Bang!” The girl thudded to the ground, already lifeless, dead through and through. “Bitter Ghost has been dealt with!” Jiang Qi casually lit a cigarette and started smoking as if killing someone was just routine for him. His face showed complete relaxation, devoid of any guilt after committing murder. A man in black with large sunglasses swiftly dragged the body away! “Think Tank, I just saw that kid again! How’s your investigation going?” Jiang Qi asked with a light chuckle. Another person stood beside him, dressed in a custom Italian shirt, casual trousers, and leather shoes, looking lofty and elevated. However, this person exuded a sinister aura, seemingly cooler than the normal temperature by a few degrees. A sickly pale handsome face bore a strange smile, making one feel extremely uncomfortable. “Young Master Jiang, this Ye Chenfeng might be a big deal. His information is mostly a blank slate, and the surface information presented is all fake!” Think Tank said. Jiang Qi nodded, “I knew Chu Qingxue wouldn’t just find some laborer-like figure as a shield. If she was to choose a shield, it would have to be a high-level one!” Think Tank’s half-squinted eyes shone brilliantly, “What’s the situation tonight, Young Master Jiang?” Jiang Qi told the Think Tank everything that happened at the Moonlight Revolving Restaurant earlier. After hearing this, Think Tank nodded, his expression solemn, “Young Master Jiang, you’ve met your match. Ye Chenfeng must be well-versed in psychology, knows how to analyze psychological changes, and can cleverly attack by taking the initiative, thus psychologically disturbing you, defeating you!” “Indeed!” After listening to Think Tank’s analysis, Jiang Qi nodded, and as he was always calm as a mountain due to his good upbringing, he wouldn’t panic in a situation but would instead analyze and handle it coolly. But facing Ye Chenfeng three times had thrown him off balance, causing him to flee in a panic each time. “Young Master Jiang, I’m even more suspicious now that Ye Chenfeng is a shield hired by Chu Qingxue, and they haven’t been involved!” “Hmm, mm, you’re truly worthy of being the Think Tank—straight to the point!” Jiang Qi praised generously. Think Tank chuckled, “I think to understand Ye Chenfeng, we should start with the Daxing Pharmaceutical Factory District!” “Good, we’ll do everything as you say!” … “Grapes and wine under a luminous cup, ready to drink when the pipa urges haste! Such great wine!” Ye Chenfeng emptied the wine in the Luminous Cup and even recited a line of poetry. Qiu Muran’s beautiful face, sculpted like jade, flushed with tipsy red, “It seems you have a deep understanding of this poem, huh?” Ye Chenfeng smiled with ill intent, “Indeed!” “Share your insights then!” Qiu Muran, who studied archaeology as a second degree in college, had an intense passion for Divine Land’s poetry. “Ahem, the way I see it, the author uses an expensive Luminous Cup for his ’82 Lafite wine, just as he’s about to drink, a gal named Pipa is hurrying him up in bed!” Ye Chenfeng explained his interpretation candidly. “Pfft, you’re terrible!” Qiu Muran giggled, her beautiful eyes playfully glaring at Ye Chenfeng. “The author’s awesome!” Ye Chenfeng exclaimed with a laugh. Qiu Muran’s expression tightened, and with a twinkle in her eye and a blossoming smile, she said, “Ye Chenfeng, what’s really your background?”
