Chapter 781: Chapter 777: The Long-Awaited Party

Around 7:50 PM, Ye Fan and Hu Jing drove to the parking lot of Yun Qi Clubhouse.

Getting out of the car, Hu Jing approached Ye Fan, extending her snow-lotus-like pale arm to gently hook onto Ye Fan’s left arm, then they walked together towards the elevator.

The two were walking so closely that Ye Fan could clearly smell the faint fragrance of the woman on Hu Jing, and Hu Jing’s fullness was just a whisper away from his arm.

This tiny gap only needed him to swagger his upper body as he walked to touch her, and it was foreseeable that Hu Jing wouldn’t mind.

However, Ye Fan still suppressed such thoughts; since he had decided to be just an ordinary good friend with Hu Jing, there was no reason to be tempted and get too close again.

By the time they reached the entrance to the party hall, Ye Fan hadn’t made any moves on Hu Jing, and she hadn’t tried to get any closer to tempt him.

As they entered the party hall, Hu Jing, dressed in a fiery red evening gown, coupled with her stunning beauty, instantly attracted the gaze of all the men in the room.

Hu Jing instantly became the focus of the entire venue.

Ye Fan turned his head slightly and said to Hu Jing with a smile, “Alright, I won’t interfere with your charm anymore.”

Hu Jing smiled faintly and let go of Ye Fan’s arm.

Ye Fan secretly heaved a sigh of relief; it was quite a pressure to have Hu Jing clinging to his arm like that.

Once free, Ye Fan walked aside, leaving the center of attention.

A few steps away, he was immediately greeted by an excited shout at the front and side, “Brother Ye!”

Ye Fan looked toward the direction of the voice, only to see Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and others coming up with faces full of joy and excitement.

“Haha, Shuai Jiang, Mingyi, Ruolin…” Ye Fan quickly called out his friends’ names, and then said, “Long time no see.”

Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and others approached, giving Ye Fan a warm, strong hug, including several girls like Wang Ruolin.

Standing in front of the sofa by the wall, Ye Fan and Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and others happily caught up.

As Ye Fan chatted happily with Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and the others, all of a sudden, they quieted down, their gazes shifting behind him.

He turned around, puzzled, and immediately saw Dongfang Yun Qi, dressed in a noble, simple beige long dress, gracefully walking towards him with a beautiful, elegant smile. As their eyes met, they looked directly at each other.

“Hehe, Yun Qi, good evening,” Ye Fan said, turning his body to face Dongfang Yun Qi, greeting her with a smile.

Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and others also politely called out, “Miss Yun Qi (Sister Yun Qi).”

Finally, Dongfang Yun Qi approached Ye Fan and others with her graceful figure, smiling and saying, “I apologize for interrupting your conversation. Sorry.”

“Hehe, not at all,” replied Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and the others, immediately shaking their heads and waving their hands.

Dongfang Yun Qi gave a graceful and easygoing smile, her gaze returning to Ye Fan’s face, “Ye Fan, I thought you would wait until the party started to come.”

“Hehe, not at all,” Ye Fan replied with a smile.

Then, Dongfang Yun Qi talked with Ye Fan for a few more sentences before saying, “The party is about to start; we can talk more later.”

In front of Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and the others, Dongfang Yun Qi didn’t talk too much with Ye Fan.

“Mhm,” Ye Fan nodded.

“Ladies and gentlemen, we’ll talk later,” Dongfang Yun Qi said finally, moving her gaze away from Ye Fan and onto Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and the others.

Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and the others laughed, saying, “Let’s chat later.”

They all understood clearly in their hearts that this was just courtesy on the part of Dongfang Yunqi; her only purpose in coming over to greet them was to see Ye Fan.

As Dongfang Yunqi turned and gracefully walked away, Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and the others couldn’t help but look at Ye Fan with envy and said with a smile, “Ye is truly remarkable. As soon as you arrive, Miss Yun Qi comes over to greet you personally.”

“Hehe,” Ye Fan replied modestly with a smile, “I haven’t been here for a long time, so it’s normal for her to come over and say a few words when she sees me.”

Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and the others laughed and didn’t believe what Ye Fan had said, but they didn’t continue on the topic and soon started catching up with each other again.

After reminiscing for a while, Hu Jing attracted too much attention; consequently, Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and the others couldn’t help but shift the topic to Hu Jing.

Looking at Hu Jing in the center of the hall, surrounded and courted by many young masters, they talked to Ye Fan, saying, “Brother Ye, your former colleague Hu Jing is really beautiful.”

“Mm, she is indeed beautiful,” Ye Fan acknowledged with a smile. “Who among you is interested in her? Make your move quickly, or it’ll be too late for regrets.”

Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and the others chuckled and said, “Better not; you’re too close to her. If we were to start something, it’d create an awkwardness in our hearts.”

They were familiar with both Ye Fan and Hu Jing and knew she had a good relationship with Ye Fan, so they needed to be discreet.

Hearing this, Ye Fan realized they had a point and stopped trying to ‘sell’ Hu Jing.

Not long after, the party finally began.

This party had a theme, but Ye Fan didn’t pay much attention to it.

He was attending this party for two reasons, first, because of the earnest invitation from Dongfang Yun, and second, to meet with Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and the others.

Ye Fan and Zhao Shuaijiang, Tang Mingyi, and the others stood in the crowd, chatting quietly. The half-hour themed activities ended quickly.

Next, the dance party began.

“Brother Ye, may I have the honor of dancing with you?” Wang Ruolin, standing nearby, asked eagerly.

“It would be my pleasure,” Ye Fan said with a slight smile.

Then, he made a gentlemanly gesture inviting Wang Ruolin to dance.

Seeing Ye Fan had agreed, Wang Ruolin happily extended her delicate hand and placed it in Ye Fan’s.

Ye Fan gently held Wang Ruolin’s soft hand and together they headed toward the dance floor.

Wang Ruolin was also beautiful and tall with an elegant figure, hailing from a family of officials—her father being the Director of the Hua Hai City Industrial and Commercial Bureau. She greatly admired Ye Fan, the enigmatic new Racing King.

Thus, being able to share a dance with Ye Fan, coupled with her knowledge of his impressive dance skills, filled her with a bit of excitement.

Once on the dance floor, the two faced each other and assumed their dance positions, then they began to glide across the floor in time with the music.

Wang Ruolin was wearing a rather sexy backless evening dress, and as Ye Fan danced with her, his palm inevitably made direct contact with the soft, smooth skin of her back.

However, Wang Ruolin didn’t mind at all.

As Ye Fan took to the dance floor with Wang Ruolin, Hu Jing, who had intended the first dance with Ye Fan, couldn’t help feeling a touch of disappointment. After entering the party hall, she was constantly surrounded by a group of young masters and thus, was a bit distant from Ye Fan. When the dance started, and she went to find Ye Fan, Wang Ruolin had already made her move swiftly.

Dongfang Yun also noticed Ye Fan dancing with Wang Ruolin and, watching Ye Fan’s tall and elegant dance figure in the dance pool, she showed an appreciative smile. She also planned to dance with Ye Fan at some point, but she was in no rush and would wait until midway through to ask him.

Turning her attention away, she continued to converse with several guests standing in front of her.
