Chapter 304: Chapter 304: The King of Living Off a Woman"Officer Tang, you can set a time at your convenience, and no matter how busy I am, I’ll come to teach you!" Fang Bai said with a smile. "Okay, you said it. When I’m free, I’ll call you!" With Fang Bai’s words, Tang Wenrou knew he still cared about her. Her mood immediately improved, and her lips curved slightly, evoking a charming smile. "A friend has just arrived... Officer Tang, we’ll chat more when you’re free!" Suddenly sensing a familiar presence, Fang Bai looked up and indeed saw someone he recognized approaching. After bidding "goodbye" to Tang Wenrou, he hung up the phone and revealed a faint smile, turning toward the woman walking towards him. Under the lights, Dongfang Rushi appeared to step right out of a painting, her movements light and ethereal, stunningly beautiful. Her attire was simple, her face free of makeup—though reserved, her presence was overwhelming. Tonight, Dongfang Rushi was undoubtedly one of the most dazzling female guests among the hundreds in the hall. The first prodigious woman in the history of the Dongfang Family, the next helmswoman of the Dongfang Family, recognized as "The First Beauty of Yanjing," the pampered young woman of the Huaxia Business Community... With multiple auras about her, Dongfang Rushi was the center of attention wherever she went, drawing countless admiring gazes. This year, Dongfang Rushi turned twenty and was said to be still without a boyfriend. Countless heirs of prominent clans had wracked their brains, trying desperately to win her affection. But unfortunately, Dongfang Rushi had high standards, and to this day, no man had captured her favor. Some men called Dongfang Rushi haughty, others said she was arrogantly aloof, but many more held the mentality that "the unattainable is the most desirable," persistently launching frenzied romantic pursuits at her. As Dongfang Rushi gracefully made her way towards Fang Bai in the corner of the hall, many people’s gazes followed her, eventually falling on Fang Bai. To have Dongfang Rushi move herself to greet him... just who was this young man? In that moment, the crowd wore expressions of surprise, speculating about Fang Bai’s identity in hushed tones. At the same time, Lu Jianfeng, Hua Yi, Wang Dong, and others who were conversing with friends also noticed Fang Bai. Lu Jianfeng had always had a good relationship with Fang Bai. Hua Yi, since reconciling with Fang Bai, had become an acquaintance. Seeing Dongfang Rushi, who never favored any man, approaching Fang Bai seemingly to greet him, they began to ponder over their relationship. Jiang Xiaoyu, the initiator of this charity auction, hadn’t expected Fang Bai to be not only the "Little Lover" of "National Sweetheart" Ye Wumei but also to be acquainted with Dongfang Rushi, the pampered princess of the Dongfang Family. She couldn’t help but show a spark of interest and also believed that Fang Bai was no mere gigolo. Because Jiang Xiaoyu understood Dongfang Rushi well. If Fang Bai was the kind to live off a woman, Dongfang Rushi, given her character, would definitely not have acknowledged him. As for Xie Yifeng and Shen Huanian, one had just had an unpleasant encounter with Fang Bai, and the other was Fang Bai’s "rival in love." And both happened to have a certain longing for Dongfang Ruhua. Seeing Dongfang Ruhua walking towards Fang Bai, they couldn’t help but look somewhat displeased. As for Wang Dong, his gaze towards Fang Bai was already filled with killing Qi. A few days ago, Wang Dong had received news from his family, informing him that he was to meet Ye Wumei tomorrow at noon, accompanied by elders from both sides. If he and Ye Wumei took a liking to each other after spending some time together, Ye Wumei might marry into the Wang Family and become his woman. When Ye Wumei had entered the hall earlier, arm in arm with Fang Bai, Wang Dong saw it and immediately felt as if someone had stolen something that belonged to him. His eyes were ablaze with fiery rage and disbelief. However, since Wang Dong had suffered a considerable loss at Fang Bai’s hands during Dongfang Ruhua’s birthday banquet, and since Ye Wumei had no actual ties to him at the moment, he had no choice but to forcefully suppress his anger and pretend as if nothing was amiss. "Doctor Fang, I’m very pleased to see you again." Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Dongfang Rushi walked up to Fang Bai, her lips curving into a faint smile. She greeted him, her demeanor carrying a hint of respect. Seeing the smile that graced Dongfang Rushi’s lips, those who knew her well were wide-eyed with disbelief. Dongfang Rushi had once been summoned by the Prime Minister. It was said that during her audience with the Prime Minister, she maintained a respectful attitude without showing a hint of smile. Yet, there she was, taking the initiative to greet and smile for that delicate-looking, excessively young man. Could his status be even greater than that of the current Prime Minister? Most of the guests in the hall were unfamiliar with Fang Bai, and upon seeing this scene, they began to whisper amongst themselves, inquiring about Fang Bai’s identity and background. Some, who were quick-witted, even prepared to approach and make acquaintances with Fang Bai. However, it didn’t take long for the message about the man’s identity and background to reach nearly all the guests present. To the majority’s surprise, the man named Fang Bai had no remarkable background to speak of. He was just an intern at Yanjing Medical College, specifically in the Traditional Chinese Medicine department, practicing acupuncture and massage. While most guests were skeptical about the truth of this information, those who had been ready to network with Fang Bai decided to put their plans on hold and observe the situation a bit longer. The news had spread from Xie Yifeng’s lips, his purpose clearly to let the guests understand that Fang Bai was actually without significant background. He wanted them to infer that Fang Bai was merely a pretty boy living off of others, attempting to diminish Fang Bai’s standing and provoke disdain and ridicule from other guests. However, Xie Yifeng had clearly miscalculated. Although some guests looked at Fang Bai with contempt, many more felt a deep admiration for him. What did it matter if he was living off others? He could get close to Ye Wumei, and it seemed he might even be involved with Dongfang Rushi. Being able to live off others to the extent that Fang Bai did was truly worthy of the title "King of Kept Men." "Rushi, I’m also very happy to see you!"

As Dongfang Rushi approached him with light steps, Fang Bai smiled and asked, "Why, didn’t Ruhua come with you?" In Fang Bai’s memory, Dongfang Rushi’s and Dongfang Ruhua’s personalities were complete opposites—one was calm and undisturbed, while the other loved excitement and was lively. Normally, in such bustling occasions, Dongfang Ruhua wouldn’t be absent. "Ruhua has recently been cooped up in her room, aside from her studies. She claims to be cultivating the Cultivation Technique that you, Doctor Fang, imparted to her. She says that if she practices that technique, she could become a powerful Martial Artist like Doctor Fang..." Dongfang Rushi, who seemed quite stingy with her smiles, had only shown that hint of a smile when she first saw Fang Bai, and then she returned to her usual expression, speaking in a nonchalant tone. "Doctor Fang, you are a Master from beyond this world; imparting the Cultivation Method to Ruhua is an opportunity of great fortune for her. But that girl is so absorbed in her learning that she doesn’t even keep to regular meal times; the family is a bit worried... Doctor Fang, there won’t be any problems, right?"
