Chapter translated by: Ironize97
"Mr. Du! Why do you say that about Ye Chen? Ye Chen is definitely not a bad person!"
Liu Ruoxi suddenly said angrily.
"Mr. Du, it's really strange that Ye Chen didn't come to meet you on purpose several times, but it wouldn't make sense to say that he was a person with ulterior motives! After all, the lives of me and Ruoxi at that time were both saved by him!"
Elder Liu also shook his head and said.
"Yes, Master, Mr. Ye Chen should not be a bad person! I misunderstood him before, but later, if it weren't for him, I'm afraid we would have all been killed by that masked man!"
Even Jiang Qing opened his mouth to defend Ye Chen.
"Hehe, this, maybe it's his brilliance! No, it's not him, if I'm not wrong, it's most likely them!"
Du Bocheng said with certainty.
"They? Mr. Du, what's going on?"
Old Liu frowned tightly, and said doubtfully.
Liu Ruoxi and Jiang Qing also looked at Du Bocheng in puzzlement.
"Hehe, Mr. Liu, in your capacity, as a stranger, it may not be easy to gain your trust in a short period of time, right?"
Du Bocheng said in a mysterious way.
"Good."
Old Liu nodded.
Old Liu was a soldier for half his life, and the Liu family has stood in the south of the Yangtze River for decades, how could he easily trust a stranger?
"However, Mr. Liu, this Ye Chen can come and go in and out of the Liu family villa at will now! Besides, Mr. Liu, although you still don't have absolute trust in this Ye Chen, at least you have a good impression of this Ye Chen, right? As for Miss Ruoxi, for this Ye Chen, that can be said to be more trustworthy! Even my incompetent apprentice Jiang Qing, didn't he just speak on Ye Chen's side?"
Du Bocheng smiled faintly and spoke slowly.
"This..."
Liu Lao was immediately speechless.
"Old Liu, since you want to gain the trust of the Liu family, how can it be possible without paying a price? Isn't the masked man's life the price they paid?"
Du Bocheng stood up and said.
"But...but, that masked man is a martial artist with inner strength!"
Old Liu still refused to believe it.
Could it be that taking the life of an inner strength warrior as the price is just to let Ye Chen get close to him?
"Hehe, Mr. Liu, you underestimate the Liu family too! They are willing to pay the price of the life of an inner strength warrior to get close to the Liu family. Doesn't it mean that they have a big plan? Besides, even if they are both inner strength warriors, the difference in their strength is too huge! Although a martial artist who has just started with internal energy can defeat a dozen or so external energy fighters, he is like a dish in front of a real internal energy master, or even a top-level internal energy fighter! Not every life of an inner strength warrior is very valuable!"
Du Bocheng said proudly.
Obviously, in his eyes, he himself is at least the so-called master of inner strength!
Hearing Du Bocheng's words, Old Liu's face was solemn and he didn't say a word.
Jiang Qing also frowned, thoughtful.
But Liu Ruoxi didn't believe it at all!
She absolutely couldn't believe that Ye Chen, who would sleep in the guest room as soon as he arrived at the villa, would be such a sinister and deep-rooted villain!
"Mr. Du, you, what you said is all guesswork! You, you have no evidence at all!"
Liu Ruoxi's face flushed red.
"Evidence? Hehe, Miss Ruoxi, in fact, you have discovered the evidence a long time ago, but no one has paid attention to it, and no one has really used their brains to think about it."
Du Bocheng smiled inscrutablely again.
"Mr. Du, you mean?"
Liu Lao's face was already a little ugly.
"Isn't the masked man's body the evidence? Since the face has been masked, why bother to disfigure it? Now that the face has been disfigured, why bother to mask it? This masked man is clearly a dead man! He has already been disfigured for the sake of not letting you find out his details! The mask is just to confuse you!"
Du Bocheng suddenly raised his voice and shouted repeatedly.
"What?"
Liu Lao suddenly realized.
"My God! It's dangerous!"
Jiang Qing was suddenly terrified.
"No, I don't believe it!"
Liu Ruoxi felt her head was in a daze, she turned around and ran towards her boudoir, she wanted to have a quiet time.
"Hey, I hunt geese all day long, but I almost got pecked in the eye by geese!"
Old Liu laughed wryly at himself, shook his head, and also entered the villa.
Jiang Qing hurriedly followed.
Only Du Bocheng was left alone, and he walked slowly to the edge of the cliff on the top of the mountain, and stood proudly with his hands behind his back.
...
Ye Chen, who knew nothing about the discussions at the villa on the top of the mountain, had already arrived at the KTV at this time, waiting for Ye Xiaoqian to get off work.
Unexpectedly, before Ye Xiaoqian got off work, an unexpected person came to him.
"Ye Chen, can you open a private room for me, and bring me a bottle of red wine, please? I want an 86-year-old Lafite. When I came last time, you seem to have it here. Thank you."
A beautiful woman in extremely fashionable clothes suddenly walked into the KTV, and said to Ye Chen who was waiting for Ye Xiaoqian in the hall.
Ye Chen looked up and was surprised to find that it was Zhao Mengya!
At this time, Zhao Mengya was no longer dressed like a student in school, but changed into a suit of incomparably fashionable and high-quality clothes, making her look elegant, noble and generous.
Hearing Zhao Mengya's words, Ye Chen frowned slightly.
Although Zhao Mengya's tone was polite, it was that kind of cold, superior politeness.
She obviously really regarded Ye Chen as a waiter.
However, thinking of what Xie Zhiruo had done for him during the day, and seeing that Zhao Mengya was Xie Zhiruo's best friend, Ye Chen just shook his head, opened a private room for her, and took a bottle of 86-year-old Lafite ordered by Zhao Mengya at the front desk. Ye Chen opened the bottle and placed it on the glass coffee table in the private room, then turned around and was about to leave.
"Ye Chen, have a drink with me."
Zhao Mengya picked up two goblets, poured one for Ye Chen, and poured one for herself.
"OK."
Although Ye Chen didn't know what Zhao Mengya was going to do, but for Xie Zhiruo's sake, having a drink with her was not a big deal.
"Come on, cheers."
Zhao Mengya picked up the goblet, shook it a few times, and gestured to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen picked up the wine glass, touched it with Zhao Mengya, and drank it all in one gulp.
Zhao Mengya chuckled, held the goblet, and shook it a few times before putting it to her mouth.
"Did you know? This bottle of 1986 Lafite, the taste is second only to the 1982 Lafite."
Zhao Mengya took the initiative to pick up the wine bottle again, and poured some red wine for Ye Chen and herself.
"I don't quite understand that."
Ye Chen honestly shook his head.
"When drinking red wine, you should shake the glass first to make the red wine contact with the air more. In this way, more aroma of the wine will be released, and the taste of the wine will become softer and less bitter."
Zhao Mengya picked up the wine glass again, shook it gently, and preached to Ye Chen in a condescending tone.
"For me, it makes no difference."
Ye Chen said lightly.
No matter if it was Lafite in the 1980s, no matter how much or how little he had been in contact with the air, wouldn't there be no aura in it?
"This bottle of Lafite from 1986 probably costs about 50,000 yuan here." Zhao Mengya nodded, and said, "Of course, if you take out the 600,000 yuan you bought the house yesterday, you can buy a bottle of it."
Zhao Mengya's tone was elegant, but with a hint of sarcasm.
"What do you want to say in the end?"
Ye Chen's voice became colder.
"I want to say, let you stay away from Xie Zhiruo!"
"What I just said is the life Xie Zhiruo should live in the future! And these, you Ye Chen, are completely two worlds!"
"Even if you can spend 600,000 yuan to buy a house, you are too far away from this kind of life!"
"You, Ye Chen, and Xie Zhiruo are people from two worlds!"
"You, Ye Chen, please stay away from Xie Zhiruo in the future!"
Zhao Mengya stood up abruptly, and said in one breath.
"It turns out that these are what you want to say."
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes and said coldly.
"That's right, Ye Chen! I know you are good at fighting. But in modern society, what is the comparison? The comparison is status, status, power, connections, money, ability... and you, Ye Chen, only rely on What's the use of being able to fight? Do you want to fulfill Xie Zhiruo's star dream by being a bodyguard and a thug?"
Zhao Mengya suddenly seemed to be a different person, showing her sharpness in an instant.
