As the two women talked, Ye Fei had already stepped into the elevator heading downstairs. It wasn't that he didn't want to spend more time with his aunt, who had missed him dearly, but he had just returned and had a lot to take care of. Besides, with Zhou Mingming also present, staying would only make things awkward for her.
Since it was already work hours, the elevator was relatively empty—only Ye Fei was inside. However, after descending a couple of floors, the elevator stopped, and the doors opened to reveal a strikingly beautiful woman with a tall, curvaceous figure. It was Song Xuan, the deputy mayor, who was still in her late twenties.
Seeing Ye Fei, Song Xuan was momentarily surprised but quickly composed herself. She glanced at the already lit button for the first floor, pressed the close door button, and didn't acknowledge Ye Fei further.
