"Ye Chen, it must be this guy, he's the one oppressing you, making you lose your freedom, all anxious and wary!"
"But, rest assured, with me, Feng Yi, here, no matter how brutal this guy is, I will rescue you from the devil's clutches!"
Feng Yi bellowed repeatedly, instantly becoming the focus of the entire banquet, making the whole event suddenly quiet down.
Some celebrities who were originally having a great time chatting, but Feng Yi's sudden frenzied roar froze everyone's face, turning the atmosphere at the banquet eerily awkward.
"Mr. Hong, please excuse me for a moment."
Liu Zhenglong said apologetically to a friend and hurriedly walked toward Ye Chen and Feng Yi, trying to stop the disaster from unfolding.
He Xihui, with her belly protruding, also moved slowly across the venue, wanting to go over and understand the situation.
This was Liu Zhenglong's celebration for expecting a child, with every guest a notable figure from different fields, top-tier individuals, and economic powerhouses. If a brawl between guests occurred under the watchful eyes of everyone present, then the spectacle would be enormous!
"They all look at me with tenderness in their eyes, it was your appearance that changed their attitude, you definitely coerced them with some method, I must knock you down, and free them all!" Feng Yi glared at Ye Chen, his eyes spewing a cold light, as if he was ready to lash out at any moment.
From Li Yan's attentive gaze to the female anchor informing him about the cause of the event, all these women acted shy around him, which made Feng Yi's heart bloom with joy, believing that he was blessed with the favor of a group of beautiful women.
However, since Ye Chen's arrival, these women seemed startled and no longer dared to cast flirtatious glances his way, inciting surprise and anger in Feng Yi.
Ye Chen, this scoundrel, is undoubtedly a Demon King, hoarding four beauty queens, terrifying them into submission. Feng Yi decided he must rescue all four women!
"Ye Chen, it's all our fault, we caused you trouble."
Li Yan, Su Binglan, Zhang Xinlan, Wen Rou, all surrounded Ye Chen, apologizing incessantly, fearful of displeasing him.
The attendees of Liu Zhenglong's celebration were high-profile society members. After Ye Chen's arrival, a few words were enough to send Feng Yi into a rage, drawing everyone's attention. Su Binglan, Li Yan, and the others knew the situation had escalated.
They had initially intended just to have fun, but who would have known that Feng Yi, a fool, would bark so loudly and draw all eyes to them. If Ye Chen mishandled the situation, he would lose face, and even Liu Zhenglong, the host, would be embarrassed.
"Don't blame yourselves." Ye Chen consoled the women.
"Blame us, it's because we are too beautiful. It's our beauty that nearly made Feng Yi fight you." Li Yan complained, troubled by her own beauty.
"…" Ye Chen's face stiffened.
"Get lost, you're not welcome here!"
Feng Yi shouted furiously, drawing everyone's attention. He looked fierce as if he wanted to drive Ye Chen out.
"Do you even know what you're doing?" Ye Chen said sternly, a touch of coldness on his face, as certain people crossed his line.
"Ha, who are you, and do you know who I am?" Feng Yi stood tall and proud, snorting derisively at Ye Chen.
"Feng Yi!" Liu Zhenglong shouted angrily, rushing over. "What the hell do you think you're doing? Are you intentionally trying to mess things up for me?"
"Liu Zhenglong, don't stop me. This man is a Demon King, imprisoning a bunch of princesses. I will rescue all these princesses!" Feng Yi naively declared.
"…"
Liu Zhenglong was originally furious, but upon seeing Feng Yi's foolish demeanor, he was momentarily dumbfounded. Had the kid been kicked in the head by a donkey?
"Demon King, I will beat you and rescue this group of princesses!" Ignoring Liu Zhenglong's annoyance, Feng Yi's tall figure charged toward Ye Chen, and, under the guests' watchful eyes, he started attacking Ye Chen.
"This is bad, Feng Yi is definitely being manipulated!"
Liu Zhenglong instantly realized the truth, but it was too late. With Feng Yi's swift and forceful pounce, even if he wanted to stop him, he was powerless and could only watch the tragedy unfold.
"Liu Zhenglong, you've really lost face this time. The Feng Family's boy here is obviously trying to wreck the celebration!"
The onlookers, most of them cunning and strategic, found Feng Yi's behavior at the event exceedingly abnormal. Some contemplated the possibility that Feng Yi might be acting under someone else's orders, used as a pawn.
Using Feng Yi as a pawn to disrupt this celebration not only offended Liu Zhenglong, but also equivalent to challenging Feng Yi's family. Those who weren't afraid of the Feng Family and cared even less for Liu Zhenglong were very few amongst the gathered guests…
Feng Yi charged at Ye Chen, aiming a punch at his forehead, intending to beat Ye Chen to a pulp. This scene changed the expressions of several people.
"Bang!"
A muffled sound reverberated, setting everyone's nerves on edge.
Ye Chen stood there, Feng Yi knelt down.
"What!"
Someone exclaimed in shock, the outcome proving to be quite unexpected.
"This!" Liu Zhenglong's eyelids twitched, his face unable to hide his surprise.
Feng Yi, towering at one-ninety, was built like a bear and a tiger. His charge towards Ye Chen resembled a tiger descending a mountain, quite intimidating indeed.
Ye Chen wasn't as tall and muscular as Feng Yi, nor was he the strong, powerful type. If Feng Yi gave off an aura of brute strength, then Ye Chen was decidedly the idol type.
However, the powerful Feng Yi, with a threatening aura, had barely reached a foot in front of Ye Chen before being blasted in the lower abdomen by the idol-like Ye Chen's fist, falling to the ground and continuously spitting out white foam.
"How is this possible!" Feng Yi spat out white foam, his eyes wide with disbelief.
Feng Yi wanted to land a punch on Ye Chen's head, aiming to tackle Ye Chen to the ground, but the moment his fist was about to make contact, Ye Chen launched a powerful inch punch that stopped him in his tracks, causing his body to soften and drop to his knees.
The physical prowess of Ye Chen was a shock to Feng Yi's heart. Due to his impotence, he had deliberately trained his body over the years. He was well aware of the force of his own charge, which could even break a small tree standing before him.
But such a strong impact was stopped by a single inch punch from Ye Chen, leaving him spitting white foam. What kind of monster was he dealing with?
Feng Yi felt a hint of fear in his heart.
"I'll give you a chance to atone. Tell me, who sent you to pick a fight with me?" In the quiet of the banquet, Ye Chen spoke indifferently, as if judging Feng Yi.
"Mr. Ye has noticed it!" Liu Zhenglong's heart jumped, somewhat surprised by Ye Chen's wisdom.
Following Ye Chen's words, many faces at the banquet revealed shock, further confirming Ye Chen's extraordinary insight in quickly seeing through everything.
"I don't understand what you're talking about!" Feng Yi said through clenched teeth.
"Think carefully; if you don't reveal who sent you, I will beat you up, you know!" Ye Chen said very seriously.
"..." Feng Yi did not expect Ye Chen to threaten him so directly and simply.
Nevertheless, it's better for a man to die standing than live kneeling. If Feng Yi immediately betrayed his principles due to a threat from Ye Chen, how could he continue to get by in the future?
"There's a saying that goes, 'A wise man submits to circumstances.' You need to think carefully about some things; they can affect your future!" Ye Chen said calmly.
Feng Yi had come over feigning ignorance and even made a move on him, trying to embarrass him. There certainly was someone behind it.
Ye Chen felt it necessary to find that person and step on them, to utterly humiliate them and establish his authority.
"..."
Ye Chen's words left Feng Yi with doubt and struggle written on his face.
"Speak up quickly, or I'll really hit you!" Ye Chen threatened.
"What the hell!" Feng Yi was getting annoyed.
Feng Yi did not want to completely offend Liu Zhenglong and was about to spill the beans, but Ye Chen's threat made him tense up.
Feng Yi was somewhat of a figure in his own right, and Ye Chen's repeated threats to beat him were an affront to his dignity. If he now revealed everything, wouldn't that just prove he was a coward, afraid of being beaten by Ye Chen?
Feng Yi was a man with integrity; for the sake of his dignity, he refused to confess.
"Sometimes, pride and arrogance must consider the time, the place, and the occasion," Ye Chen sighed softly.
"Bang!"
Ye Chen suddenly struck with an open palm, directly hitting Feng Yi's forehead. The conceited Feng suddenly collapsed, his life or death unknown.
"Ye Chen, you!" Liu Zhenglong glared.
"Don't worry, he's not dead. He might have a concussion, though. Consider it a lesson," Ye Chen said to Liu Zhenglong.
"Uh, alright then," Liu Zhenglong opened his mouth, but stopped short of speaking further.
After all, Feng Yi had started the trouble, and it was only right for him to be taught a lesson.
However, the swift takedown of Feng Yi, who stood nearly two meters tall, by Ye Chen caused a stir at the banquet.
"Liu, you know this man. You should know who instructed him, right?" Ye Chen turned to Liu Zhenglong.
This seemed to be targeting Ye Chen, but the celebration was Liu Zhenglong's baby shower, and Ye Chen had saved Liu Zhenglong's life. Attacking him was like slapping Liu Zhenglong in the face, and Ye Chen felt like an innocent casualty.
"Mr. Ye, you are indeed wise!"
With a resigned smile, Liu Zhenglong was taken aback by Ye Chen's quick deduction of the truth.
"Liu Zhenglong, what are you playing at? This is your baby shower, and now someone has killed a man at the banquet. Why aren't you calling the police to arrest the murderer?"
As the atmosphere quieted down, a mocking voice rang out, heralding the arrival of a big shot looking to stir trouble, causing everyone's expressions to shift.
There was a loud noise in the sky, and the big shot made a flashy entrance!
You Tianyi followed by a crowd, strode towards Liu Zhenglong with a menacing aura, which surprised Ye Chen. With such presence and ferocity, he blatantly disrespected Liu Zhenglong in front of so many people.
"Was it you who sent Feng Yi?" When Ye Chen saw You Tianyi, he had his suspicions.
"Yes, correct," You Tianyi admitted openly. "Feng Yi was a surprise I prepared for Liu Zhenglong, but that guy is really brainless. I asked him to liven up the atmosphere at the banquet, and he actually came over to brawl with you over jealousy. He has truly disappointed me."
