540: Chapter 536: Some Things Must Be Bravely Confronted 540: Chapter 536: Some Things Must Be Bravely Confronted Having received Ye Guohua’s consent, Qiao Feixuan couldn’t wait a minute longer and requested that Ye Guohua take the morning off to accompany her to plead with Elder Ye.

Ye Guohua had no choice but to agree.

At over ten in the morning, inside Elder Ye’s residence, Elder Ye sat in a purple sandalwood grandmaster chair, listening to Qiao Feixuan’s request with his eyes half-closed.

After a moment, Elder Ye opened his eyes and turned his gaze onto Ye Guohua, saying, “You agreed to Feixuan’s request?”

“No,” Ye Guohua replied, “this was my idea.”

Since he had agreed to Qiao Feixuan’s request, he wouldn’t be equivocal.

As they say, never start what you cannot finish.

Therefore, he directly presented Qiao Feixuan’s request as his own, clearly stating his resolution to Elder Ye.

“State your reasons,” Elder Ye said.

Ye Guohua had already prepared his reasoning and immediately responded, “Although Ye Fan is still young, he has already served in the military for six years, having been promoted to major general, and has become the highest commander of Dragon Group, demonstrating his capability to act independently.

Even without the Ye family’s influence in the military, Ye Fan has also built a significant network in the military.

Ye Fan is only twenty-two this year; shifting to politics would still be an enormous advantage in terms of age.”

“If Ye Fan’s transition to politics goes smoothly, controlling both the military and political spheres and adding the Ye family’s foundation, he might well be able to aspire to the highest position,” Ye Guohua stated bluntly.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Feixuan couldn’t help but inhale sharply, not expecting her husband to hold such significant expectations and ambitions for their son.

Elder Ye’s pupils suddenly constricted, and he abruptly sat upright, emitting an intimidating aura of a superior, his aged hands tightly gripping the armrests of his grandmaster chair.

A moment later, Elder Ye relaxed back into his chair and resumed his usual state, saying, “This matter is of great importance.

Come back to me in three days.”

“Yes, Daddy,” Qiao Feixuan immediately replied joyfully.

After leaving Elder Ye’s residence, Ye Guohua and Qiao Feixuan drove home.

In the car, Qiao Feixuan couldn’t help but smile gleefully at Ye Guohua, “Honey, you were so brilliant!

Throwing out such a big lure, there’s no way the elder wouldn’t agree!”

Yet, Ye Guohua said solemnly, “The things I said to the elder earlier, you absolutely must not reveal a single word to a fourth person.

Even our son mustn’t know!”

“Got it.

Hehe…” Qiao Feixuan laughed.

…

…

Meanwhile, the next morning, Ye Fan drove to work at Emali Group.

In his office, with little to do until around ten, he left his office, knocked on the door, and entered Li Zhaojun’s office, hoping to chat with her for a bit.

“Ye Fan, what is it?” Although Li Zhaojun immediately put down her work, she remained seated in her luxurious executive chair, asking flatly.

Seeing that Li Zhaojun was still giving off a chilly demeanor, clearly not in the mood to chat, Ye Fan felt slightly disappointed.

However, since he had come in, he couldn’t leave without saying anything.

Thus, he said, “Nothing much.

Just about Emali Group’s stock, I also hold some, about ten percent.

But they are spread across four accounts.

I just remembered and thought I’d come to let you know.”

Originally, according to his plan, he was to consolidate all his Emali Group stock to become a significant shareholder with sway in the company, but because Li Zhaojun wanted a divorce, he lost interest and didn’t complete the last step.

“Okay, I’m aware now,” Li Zhaojun nodded slightly, aware that Ye Fan had secretly done a lot for her.

Seeing this, Ye Fan added, “Nothing else then.

I won’t disturb your work.”

“Mhm,” Li Zhaojun responded.

Ye Fan turned around and left Li Zhaojun’s office, returning to his own with a bitter smile.

Clearly, his relationship with Li Zhaojun had stabilized, and she no longer needed to deliberately get close to him to win him back, so Li Zhaojun had reverted to her usual demeanor.

Sitting at his desk idly for a while, Ye Fan remembered something and walked out of his office to the safety staircase at the end of the corridor to make a phone call.

The call connected quickly.

“Yun Qi, it’s me, Ye Fan,” Ye Fan said with a smile into the phone, “How have you been lately?”

Dongfang Yunqi’s melodious and elegant laugh came through the phone: “I’ve been alright.

You went back to your hometown to celebrate your grandfather’s birthday, right?

Is your grandfather healthy?”

“Hehe, yes.

He’s quite well,” Ye Fan replied with a smile, “The birthday gifts you recommended were quite to his liking, especially the Browning handgun.

Thanks.”

“Hehe, you’re welcome,” Dongfang Yunqi said happily.

Ye Fan continued, “Are you free for lunch?

I’d like to take you out.”

“Lunch?

I can’t do lunch,” replied Dongfang Yunqi, “How about dinner?”

Ye Fan laughed, “Alright, dinner it is.”

Since he was making calls, Ye Fan also remembered that he hadn’t called Zhao Lina yet.

Now that he had decided not to divorce, he had to resolve things with Zhao Lina as well; he couldn’t keep dragging it on and hold her back.

Given Zhao Lina’s status and personality, he realized that he couldn’t arrange things for her like he did for Lu Xiaoman.

However, he wondered anxiously if she would really kill him when she found out the truth.

Finding Zhao Lina’s number, Ye Fan still gave her a call.

Quickly, Zhao Lina’s voice came through the phone, “Ye Fan, are you back in Hua Hai City?”

“Yes,” said Ye Fan, “Still busy with cases?”

“Um, I’m almost done,” Zhao Lina replied.

Ye Fan took a deep breath and said, “These days, should we meet up and talk?”

“…Alright,” Zhao Lina hesitated for a moment and then said, “Not today, tomorrow.”

Recently, she had found out that Ye Fan and Lu Xiaoman had not separated at all; instead, their relationship had progressed further, and they had become official lovers and even opened a martial arts school together.

Furthermore, Lu Xiaoman was no longer just a white-collar worker but had become the legitimate Miss of the Chongqing Mo family.

After knowing these facts, she was furious, wanting to catch Ye Fan and send him to jail, and cut off all ties with him.

Later, when she thought about the happy times with Ye Fan and the joy of kissing him, she was very reluctant to part ways with him.

She pondered and decided it would be better to fight to get Ye Fan back.

Of course, given Ye Fan’s cunning, he truly deserved a harsh lesson.

These past few days, her feelings were conflicted, and she hardly knew what she was thinking anymore.

Now that Ye Fan had called her to meet and talk, she guessed he must be ready to come clean; she needed one more day to make her final decision.

Ye Fan, sensing Zhao Lina’s tone, roughly guessed she might have discovered something.

Nevertheless, he knew he had to face whatever came bravely.

“Okay,” he said, “See you tomorrow.”
