265: Chapter 256 Chapter 253: Encounter with Yao Yue Again 265: Chapter 256 Chapter 253: Encounter with Yao Yue Again The two girls at the entrance greeted Ye Chen and then covered their mouths and giggled.

Ye Chen paused, startled.

Had they heard about what had just happened?

Impossible, right?

The soundproofing on the second floor was quite good, wasn’t it?

“Hehe, there’s a lipstick mark on Ye Chen’s face.”

“Could it be Ms.

Yan’s?”

“Whose else could it be if not Ms.

Yan’s!”

The two girls whispered among themselves until Ye Chen had walked far enough away, then they dared to raise their voices slightly.

Ye Chen left the bar with a relaxed stride, having for the first time exercised a man’s right.

That feeling was truly incomparable to smoking, drinking, or getting into fights.

No wonder people say it’s easy to get addicted to this kind of thing.

Passing by Jianghuai University after leaving the bar, Ye Chen suddenly felt a pang of heartache.

He looked at the spot where Liu Ji’s Barbecue Shop used to be, now occupied by other street vendors.

There was not the slightest bit of quiet due to Mrs.

Liu’s departure; it was bustling as usual, with various small stalls.

“Smuggled Adidas, wanna buy?

Genuine products!”

“Outlet clearance sale, starting at 90% off!”

The street vendors were shouting, waving their arms vigorously, trying to attract some of the students who were bending down to take a look.

Ye Chen walked on, his eyes taking in the scene, reminiscing the good old times he had spent here.

Suddenly, a fashionable woman stepped in front of him and asked, “Sir, how about some barbecue?”

“Oh?

Barbecue?” Ye Chen blinked in surprise.

“Yes, the barbecue from Liu Ji’s Barbecue Shop is really authentic!” the woman said with a beaming smile.

Ye Chen was taken aback.

My goodness, had Fatty Liu actually started using the beauty tactic?

Taking a closer look, Ye Chen noticed not just one fashion-forward beauty on the street, but three or four of them.

He nodded and said with a smile, “Alright, let’s give it a try!”

Immediately, the beauty led Ye Chen into the shop and gave him a brief introduction to the special features of the place before walking out.

As she left, she pointed Ye Chen out to the cashier.

Naturally, Ye Chen understood that their payment method was based on commission; whoever brought in the customer would get a percentage of the customer’s expenditure as a cut.

It seemed Fatty Liu had finally gotten savvy.

“Ye Chen!” A familiar voice called out.

Ye Chen turned to look and to his shock, he saw a man in a black suit and striped tie.

He blinked, astonished.

“Fatty Liu, dressed like that, you sure don’t look like someone who sells barbecue!”

“Haha, I didn’t expect you to come here!” Fatty Liu hurriedly sat down next to Ye Chen and said, “It’s such a pity that Aunt Liu passed away; I heard about what happened.”

“Let’s not talk about that; tell me how you’ve been following my advice,” Ye Chen said with a smile.

“Absolutely!” Fatty Liu was delighted and replied, “You really called it with that beauty consumption scheme.

I made more in the first half of the month than I did in the past three months.

So, I immediately set up a barbecue company and spread our business all over Jianghuai City.

I also promoted the beauty consumption scheme here in Jianghuai City, and damn, after doing the math, I can make at least a million and a half in a month!”

“Nice going!” Ye Chen laughed heartily.

“Not bad at all.

You’re doing great.”

“Come on, I’m treating today.

Eat whatever you want, drink whatever you wish!” Fatty Liu said with grandeur, slapping his chest.

“There’s disappointment in nine out of ten things in life, but still, we have to live on strongly, don’t we?”

“Yes, yes!” Ye Chen nodded.

The two clinked glasses, drinking until midnight struck.

Fatty Liu was drunk as a lord, while Ye Chen’s eyes still shone bright.

Beer couldn’t extinguish the flames burning in his heart.

Fatty Liu’s words sparked like a small fire in Ye Chen’s heart.

Life doesn’t always turn out as we wish, but still, we must live on with strength.

Humans are an excessively humble creature; they are also incredibly fragile.

Many times, Ye Chen thought whether he should just live a resigned life.

Why dwell on the past?

Rather than painfully facing what had happened before, it’s better to focus on planning for one’s future development.

Leaving Liu Ji’s Barbecue Shop, Ye Chen ambled towards Xin Hai Apartment.

Deep into the night, all was quiet; the wind was high, the night pitch black.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and Ye Chen felt his whole body shiver.

He couldn’t help but pull his collar tighter.

Then he continued forward when suddenly, a black shadow lunged at him.

Ye Chen, startled, quickly performed a couple of aerial flips to dodge the attack.

Sniffing the air and frowning, he watched the shadow standing in front of him, clad head to toe in a black leather jacket and pants, face covered with a black cloth, holding a curved knife in hand.

“Yao Yue?!” Ye Chen was taken aback.

“How did you know it was me?” Yao Yue asked in astonishment as she removed the cloth from her face.

“Next time, just change your perfume,” Ye Chen said, unimpressed.

He hadn’t seen Yao Yue for months, and the little Nizi seemed even prettier than before, probably driving the guys in the Golden Triangle crazy with desire.

But Yao Yue was like a rose to be admired from a distance, her thorns painful to the touch.

Yao Yue huffed, “Idiot, your home isn’t safe tonight.

You’d better not go back!”

“Why?” Ye Chen was startled again.

“Hmph, and you ask me!” Yao Yue glared at him.

“You went and killed the Face Killing General.

Do you think the Great General isn’t furious, seething like a bull?”

“It’s been so long!” Ye Chen scratched his head.

“I thought the Great General had forgotten about it!”

“Bullshit.

If it hadn’t been for me holding the fort all this time, do you think you could’ve been living so carefree up till now?” Yao Yue glared at him again.

“I’ve already investigated the car bomb incident for you!”

Ye Chen was immediately shocked.

“You know about that too!”

“Of course, I do.

That’s exactly why I came!” Yao Yue glared angrily at him.

“I’ve been exhaustively protecting you, even spending a whole year training your escape skills, and here you are, risking your life for a woman!”

Ye Chen was dumbfounded, standing still and at a loss for words.

He would never regret his decision, though.

Even if he had to do it all over again, he would make the same choice.

He looked up at Yao Yue, at her exquisite face and her eyes black as Black Gemstone.

“Yao Yue, if one day you’re in the same situation, I will also protect you with my life!”

Yao Yue was taken aback, and Ye Chen clearly saw a hint of emotion in her eyes.

However, she quickly hid it, biting her teeth.

“Idiot, I don’t need that.

In this world, no one is worth sacrificing yourself for.

Every day, so many people die in the Golden Triangle; it’s the survival of the fittest.

Your life is your most precious treasure, sacrificing it for someone else is the stupidest mistake!”

“No!” Ye Chen shook his head.

“A man who has no one to protect is no man at all.”

“I’m not arguing with you!” Yao Yue felt a sourness at the tip of her nose.

If she continued, she would definitely cry.

She gnashed her teeth and said, “There is a traitor within Tianya Group.

The one targeting Tianya Group is a large domestic organization, known as the Doomsday Family.

Si Yang Group is a branch of the Doomsday Family, be careful.

The people of the Doomsday Family are very powerful, and you’ve encountered one of them!”

“Who?!” Ye Chen was startled.

“Elder Mian Xu!” Yao Yue glanced at him.

“Apart from the Squad Leader, Elder Mian Xu is the most powerful person within the Doomsday Family, but you killed him.

Of course, you didn’t know all this!”

Ye Chen was indeed baffled.

Although he was aware of such a person, he didn’t know how he had killed him.

He was puzzled and conflicted.

Yao Yue looked at him seriously and said, “First, find the traitor inside Tianya Group.”

“Okay, thank you, Yao Yue!” Ye Chen glanced at her.

“No need to thank me!” Yao Yue flicked her hair from her forehead, then looked up at the cold moon in the sky.

“Also, it seems someone behind the Great General is starting to make moves.

Be careful for yourself.

You remember the picture I gave you, right?”

“Yeah!” Ye Chen nodded.

“That’s good, I’m leaving!” With a push of her legs, Yao Yue once again vanished into the night as if she had never appeared.

Looking in the direction where Yao Yue had disappeared, Ye Chen said softly, “Yao Yue, you’re also someone I should protect!”
