"What are you two talking about? Don't you know that others have already misunderstood?"

When the four of them sat down at a corner by the window in the restaurant, Fang Jing immediately whispered to Ye Xiao and Jiang Miaoke.

Jiang Miaoke looked puzzled and said, "Misunderstood what?"

"Are you really dumb or just pretending to be?" Fang Jing listened to Jiang Miaoke's words and was speechless.

Xia Mingyue cleared his throat and said, "Jinger, stop it, it's not good to say more."

Jiang Miaoke looked at Xia Mingyue, then at Fang Jing, and after thinking for a bit, suddenly remembered what she had just said.

One person fighting many people?

Could that be understood as Ye Xiao taking on the three beautiful women? If that's the case...

"That's not what I meant!" Jiang Miaoke immediately said seriously.

"I know that's not what you meant, but I hope you can now shut up and not let your loud voice ring out again, okay?" Xia Mingyue said speechlessly.

Because at this moment, everyone in the restaurant was looking over at Ye Xiao and others, clearly misunderstanding them even more.

Jiang Miaoke became more regretful as she thought about it, then glared fiercely at Ye Xiao and said, "It's all your fault. If you hadn't misled me, how could I have said those things?"

Ye Xiao looked innocent and said, "Coco, I'm really aggrieved."

"Hmph, explain properly to me later," Jiang Miaoke said a little angrily.

Hearing Jiang Miaoke's demand, Ye Xiao felt troubled and said, "That's not a good idea, you know I'm a person with some dignity, plus I'm now the Vice President of Blue Star Technology Company."

"Oh really?" Jiang Miaoke immediately glared at Ye Xiao and said, "Now you're putting on the air of a Vice President? Hmph, you must explain."

Ye Xiao had no choice but to surrender.

Soon, five servings of rice with toppings were brought over. The one who served them was a young woman who had also been in the restaurant earlier, so naturally, she had heard the conversation between Ye Xiao and Jiang Miaoke, and at that time, she and her companions were stunned because it's rare for someone to openly talk about such a big thing.

So, when she brought over the food, she couldn't help but glance at Ye Xiao, as if she really wanted to know what kind of ability this man had, that he could take on three at a time.

"Beauty, is there something blooming on my face?" Ye Xiao looked at the woman bringing the food.

The woman blushed upon hearing Ye Xiao's words and hurriedly planned to leave, but was stopped by Ye Xiao.

"Wait a minute!" Ye Xiao said.

The woman was surprised to hear Ye Xiao ask her to wait, and she looked at Ye Xiao in shock, stammering, "Sir... is there something the matter?"

Ye Xiao shook his head and smiled, saying, "I need to explain something. Our conversation just now, I hope you don't misunderstand. I just went to fight someone, took down eight people by myself, that's what's meant by one person against many, can you understand?"

The woman listened to Ye Xiao's words and looked at his physique and the somewhat ragged clothes.

If Ye Xiao said he got beaten, maybe he could get away with it, but now he's saying he beat others away, this woman really felt he was hiding something.

"I... I didn't think much!" The woman immediately blushed and left.

Ye Xiao watched the woman leave, grinning and said, "A little girl, still shy."

"Ye Xiao, was that an explanation?" Fang Jing said with some twitches at the corner of her mouth.

Ye Xiao immediately said, "Of course, otherwise, what do you think I was doing?"

"Are you kidding? That's an explanation? I think you were clearly misleading, misleading that little girl's thoughts," Fang Jing said, "I bet you did it on purpose."

"I..." Ye Xiao felt really aggrieved, so he stopped saying anything and buried himself in his food, while Jiang Miaoke, Xia Mingyue, and Fang Jing were eating but kept feeling that someone was watching them, making them feel quite uneasy, although this was mostly their imagination.

After finishing their meal, the four of them paid and left. Of course, they knew that after they left, there would definitely be rumors about them in the restaurant.

"Ye Xiao, are you going back to work in the afternoon?"

At the restaurant entrance, Xia Mingyue looked at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao said, "If you give me a separate office renovation, I'll go back."

"Office?" Xia Mingyue smiled wryly and said, "You want an office, sure, as long as you can do what's expected of your Vice President role, I'll give you my office."

Fang Jing quickly laughed and said, "Ye Xiao, Mr. Xia is being very generous this time. You can't just keep playing outside, there are things at the company that need to get moving."

Ye Xiao said, "No rush, one must take the initiative, don't worry, very soon He Huawei and Yang Liufei will come to me on their own, and then, won't I set the terms? So this is just a matter of time, don't worry."

Xia Mingyue was half-skeptical, and said, "Then just be careful, I've got to get back to the company. Jinger, how about you?"

Fang Jing glanced at Ye Xiao, then said to Xia Mingyue, "Mingyue, wait a moment, I have something I want to say to Ye Xiao alone."

"Alone?" Xia Mingyue immediately smiled and said, "Are you really setting me up to be a godmother?"

"Oh, come on!" Ye Xiao immediately said, "Xia Mingyue, you have such unique tastes, wanting to be Fang Jing's godmother?"

Fang Jing obviously understood Xia Mingyue's implication, her face slightly red, she said to Ye Xiao, "Shut up, will you? Come over here, I have something to say to you."

As she spoke, Fang Jing directly pulled Ye Xiao to a spot not far away.

"Sister Mingyue, just how far have Fang Jing and Ye Xiao's relationship progressed?" Jiang Miaoke saw Fang Jing pulling Ye Xiao away and immediately approached Xia Mingyue to whisper.

Xia Mingyue smiled and said, "What's wrong? Are you jealous?"

Upon hearing Xia Mingyue's teasing, Jiang Miaoke immediately retorted, "Hmph, aren't you jealous too?"

"Me...jealous of what?" Xia Mingyue was surprised to hear Jiang Miaoke's words and quickly said, "Don't talk nonsense."

"Hmph, I wasn't talking nonsense. Cousin, can you really say you have no feelings for Ye Xiao? The way you were so tense about him today and even willing to risk your reputation to clear his name, don't say you have no feelings for him, or else you're just insulting my intelligence!" Jiang Miaoke said.

Xia Mingyue's expression was noncommittal upon hearing this.

Meanwhile, after Ye Xiao and Fang Jing got aside, Ye Xiao cheerfully said to Fang Jing, "Jinger, what's up? Don't worry, my injuries are fine."

"It's something else!" Fang Jing said, her head lowered with a bit of embarrassment.

Seeing Fang Jing a bit embarrassed, Ye Xiao was amazed and said, "Jinger, do you want some intimate contact with me? Right here, in the middle of the crowd? How about we find a moonlit night instead?"

Fang Jing was so angry at Ye Xiao's words that she stomped her foot and said angrily, "What are you talking about? Who wants to do anything with you? I really have something else!"

Ye Xiao chuckled; teasing a beauty was indeed one of his joys in life.

"Go ahead, what is it? Of course, whatever it is, as long as you say it, I'm willing to go through fire and water to do it, regardless of whether I can actually get it done," Ye Xiao said with a grin.

"I miss my mom," Fang Jing suddenly said, her voice tinged with sadness.

Ye Xiao was slightly taken aback by Fang Jing's words. He remembered that Fang Jing used to always be with her mom, but due to the Liu family's troubles, Fang Chunzhi was temporarily staying with Liu Wenzhuo at the Fu family to lay low. Fang Jing knew where they were but understood the seriousness, so she dared not go.

Ye Xiao glanced at Fang Jing and then looked around the surroundings.

The Liu family, one of the eight major Martial Artist families in Bird City, had entrenched themselves in the city for many years, with extensive connections in both the martial world and the officialdom, and they commanded a lot of people.

Liu Wenchao was dead, and Liu Shixun would undoubtedly be furious, but they hadn't made another move against Fang Jing. Why was that? Most likely, they were waiting to use Fang Jing to lure Liu Wenzhuo out, and also to get the person who killed Liu Wenchao.

Ye Xiao believed that among the bustling crowd, there had to be spies from the Liu family. Honestly, Ye Xiao didn't want to take Fang Jing to the Fu family now because the Liu family might find out.

Fang Jing saying she missed her mom was simply because she worried for her mom's safety.

"I'll take you to see her!" Ye Xiao said.

Fang Jing immediately looked up at Ye Xiao, her eyes slightly red, and asked, "Really? Can we really go now?"

Seeing Fang Jing's slightly reddened eyes, Ye Xiao felt a pang in his heart. He smiled and said, "As long as you want to, I'll go with you anytime."

"Thank you!" Fang Jing said gratefully.

Ye Xiao reached out to gently stroke Fang Jing's face and said seriously, "Being so polite with me, you'll gain thirty pounds, you know."

Hearing this, Fang Jing couldn't help but erupt into laughter.

"That's better, you need to smile more. I especially like your smiling face," Ye Xiao said.

Fang Jing's face turned even redder.

"Hey, have you two finished talking? Sister Mingyue is still waiting to go to work," Jiang Miaoke called to the chatting Ye Xiao and Fang Jing.

Ye Xiao turned to Jiang Miaoke and said, "Coming."

Subsequently, Ye Xiao and Fang Jing walked over to Xia Mingyue and Jiang Miaoke.

Xia Mingyue looked at Fang Jing and joked, "Jinger, why are your eyes red? Did Ye Xiao bully you? Or is it that I really have to be a godmother?"

"You're the one who's going to be a godmother," Fang Jing said, playfully fuming at Xia Mingyue's words.
