"Hey, how's the investigation I asked for going?"

"Young Master, we've found that Ye Xiaofan was born in H City and was originally a student at Mingyuan University, next to Capital University. Somehow, this year, he was admitted to Capital University. He used to be high school classmates with Miss Liu Siyan, so it's not surprising that they know each other well."

"Anything else?"

"Also, Ye Shaolong is his uncle's child. As for Ye Xiaofan's father, he's just an ordinary cargo driver, with no family background."

"No background? No background, yet he can fend off members of our family who have undergone rigorous training? How is that possible..."

"Well... maybe he grew up in the countryside, naturally gaining great physical strength..."

"Alright, keep investigating and report any findings to me at any time."

"Yes, Young Master."

Zhang Yuxuan isn't a fool. The skills Ye Xiaofan displayed last night couldn't have been achieved solely by brute force.

His movements were incredibly fast, effortlessly defusing crises with simple gestures. His calm demeanor, showing no trace of fear in his gaze, isn't something a typical university student should possess.

However, despite this, Ye Xiaofan's abilities aren't so extraordinary as to alarm Zhang Yuxuan. But his relationship with Liu Siyan might be difficult to break.

This afternoon, Liu Siyan arrived early at the club, with the sole purpose of checking if that guy was injured.

Among the members arriving one after another, Liu Siyan finally saw the figure she was anticipating.

He came, as usual, looking nonchalant, with nothing unusual in his demeanor. Perhaps she was overthinking.

Injuries are routine for Xiaofan; after surviving numerous major crises, his body's immune functions have greatly improved. Even without inner strength for healing, a night's rest would alleviate minor injuries.

However, being bothered by a slight injury throughout the night was something Xiaofan was not quite accustomed to.

The matter had passed, and Liu Siyan wouldn't continue to trouble Xiaofan in literature. If he wanted to stay, she would just ignore him.

After the club activities ended, Liu Siyan deliberately didn't leave immediately. Instead, she waited quietly under a small tree outside, intending to ask that guy if he got injured last night.

Yes, just to ask, because after all, he was acting for her last night. If he were injured, she'd feel somewhat uneasy about it.

It was more about a troubled conscience than concern, definitely not care.

Despite repeatedly telling herself this, who can understand the turmoil in Liu Siyan's heart?

Finally, as he walked away, Liu Siyan hesitated over whether to follow him and ask.

But when she started to move her feet, seeing someone ahead made her reluctantly stop.

Meanwhile, Xiaofan headed to a nearby shop for a water bottle when suddenly an energetic presence approached from behind.

He stopped in his tracks and barely turned around before a chubby body lunged at him.

Caught and embraced tightly, but the momentum caused them both to lose balance and fall onto the grass.

This scene surprised many onlookers.

"Hey, isn't that Ren Ling?"

"What's going on? What's happening between Ren Ling and Ye Xiaofan?"

"Wow, girl, what are you up to?" Xiaofan climbed up, smiling wryly.

Ren Ling clung tightly to Xiaofan, hanging onto him as he stood up.

"Nothing, just missed you." Ren Ling spoke in her usual gentle tone, always speaking her mind.

"Could you please avoid using this kind of approach next time?"

"Why?"

"You seem to have gained weight."

"No, it's your strength that's decreased. Can't your inner strength be restored?" Ren Ling asked directly.

Just hearing that, Xiaofan's gaze dimmed slightly but soon brightened with a smile, "It's okay, even without inner strength, I can still hold you well next time."

"Okay."

"Hey there, flaunting your affection in daylight, aren't you worried someone's going to get jealous?"

At that moment, another highly attractive woman approached, catching the attention of the boys present.

Such a gorgeous lady, her figure and appearance rivaled Liu Siyan.

"Isn't that Chen Mei'Er?" Someone finally recognized her.

"Why are you here too?" Xiaofan gently set Ren Ling down and asked slowly.

"If I didn't come, was I supposed to wait for you to come to me? Seriously, I bumped into Ren Ling and came over to find you for a meal together."

The scene froze here; Liu Siyan couldn't bear to watch any longer. Some things are true facts; any more observation would only break her heart a little more. Eyes closed, she decided to ignore it all—whoever that guy wants to be with doesn't matter to her.

"Siyan, are you alright from last night?"

As soon as the club activities ended, Zhang Yuxuan rushed to Liu Siyan's side to inquire about the previous night's events. Of course, the scene involving Ye Xiaofan and Ren Ling didn't escape his notice.

"Yeah, I'm fine, slept well." Liu Siyan remembered the previous night only vaguely. She recalled that amidst the chaos with Xiaofan, Zhang Yuxuan was present.

"Glad to hear. Honestly, last night, I didn't know you knew Ye Xiaofan before. I wouldn't have tried to stop him if I knew."

"It's okay, he's just asking for trouble." Liu Siyan said little more, not even aware of Zhang Yuxuan's intentions to cause harm the previous night. Answering simply, she continued toward the parking lot.

Still entangled with Zhang Yuxuan, Ye Shaolong intercepted Liu Siyan at the parking lot.

At that moment, Ye Shaolong held a large bouquet of vibrant roses, dressed smartly in a suit, approaching Liu Siyan with a smile.

"Siyan, I'm really sorry about last night. At that time, I was just worried about you..."

"Last night? Oh, you were there too. It's fine now, thanks. Don't bother with the flowers." Liu Siyan said flatly, preparing to sidestep him toward her car.

"Wait... Siyan, actually, I came today to invite you for dinner. I was wondering if you have time today..."

"Oh, guess who... dressed up so nicely, turned out to be last night's defeated loser." Zhang Yuxuan snidely remarked, clearly not considering Ye Shaolong a worthy opponent.

"Zhang Yuxuan, what are you saying? Keep your words clean."
