Chapter 103 provides his contact information.
Thus, their first meeting ended hastily in such an awkward and unpleasant atmosphere.
Fu Shiyue stood there, watching the woman's departing figure, a strange emotion welling up in his heart.
He had seen all sorts of people in this huge shopping mall, including many women who racked their brains to get his attention, but for some reason, this woman gave him a different feeling.
It felt as if they had crossed paths in some distant past.
However, no matter how hard Fu Shiyue tried to recall, he could not piece together a clear picture related to her.
This feeling of déjà vu left him utterly confused, and he even muttered to himself in annoyance, "What the hell!"
Meanwhile, Ye Xingran was also filled with regret.
I thought I could easily win this man over, but things didn't go smoothly from the start.
Frustrated, she scratched her head, thinking about how to approach him next time. "Hmph, he's just a rich businessman. There's nothing I, Ye Xingran, can't do," Ye Xingran muttered.
A few days later, Ye Xingran obtained an invitation to a business cocktail party.
After carefully dressing up, they prepared to strike again.
She wore a floor-length red velvet dress with a high slit that perfectly revealed her fair and slender legs, exuding captivating charm with every step she took.
The fitted cut perfectly accentuated her graceful figure, and a ring of sparkling diamonds adorned the neckline, shimmering brilliantly under the lights like the brightest star in the night sky.
She wore a pair of teardrop-shaped ruby earrings that swayed gently with her movements, as vibrant as dripping blood. She carried an elegant black handbag adorned with a gold chain, perfectly complementing her overall look. Her long, glossy black hair was styled in an updo, with only a few wisps framing her face, adding a touch of languid charm.
When she stepped into the reception hall, she instantly attracted a lot of attention.
Fu Shiyue naturally saw her too, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, then the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, with a playful smile.
Ye Xingran felt his gaze, took a deep breath, straightened her chest, and walked confidently toward Fu Shiyue.
The moment Fu Shiyue saw her, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up.
She forced herself to go up and greet them, but her heart was filled with unease.
“We meet again, Miss,” Fu Shiyue said first, his voice deep and magnetic.
Ye Xingran replied, feigning composure, "Not that we're particularly lucky. We met for the first time, and now we've run into each other again, haven't we?"
The two seemed to be talking politely, but each had their own thoughts.
While dealing with the situation, Ye Xingran looked for an opportunity to get his contact information, while Fu Shiyue kept looking at her probingly, trying to unravel the mystery of the inexplicable sense of familiarity in his heart.
Just then, a waiter accidentally spilled a drink on Su Yao. Fu Shiyue instinctively reached out and pulled her closer, instantly closing the distance between them until they could hear each other's breath, and the atmosphere became subtle.
Ye Xingran's face flushed slightly, and her heart raced uncontrollably.
Just as she was about to break the ambiguous silence, Fu Shiyue spoke first: "Miss Ye, are you so quick to throw yourself into my arms?"
Although his words were teasing, his eyes held a subtle tenderness.
Ye Xingran, enraged, retorted, "Mr. Fu, you are taking advantage of my vulnerability."
Fu Shiyue released his hand and said with a smile, "It seems that Miss Ye cares a lot about this close contact."
Ye Xingran composed herself, her eyes darting around as she said, "Mr. Fu, let's not talk about these things today. I've always admired your business acumen. If possible, I'd like to learn from you. Could you please provide your contact information?"
Fu Shiyue raised an eyebrow: "Miss Ye is so eager to learn? But I don't give out my contact information easily." Just as Ye Xingran was feeling disappointed, Fu Shiyue took out his phone and waved it: "Unless Miss Ye agrees to dance with me."
Ye Xingran was secretly delighted and quickly agreed.
In the center of the glamorous dance floor, illuminated by dazzling lights, a pair of figures stood out like the most radiant stars in the night sky.
The man was tall and handsome with a gentle touch; the woman was delicate and graceful, her long dress swaying gently in the wind, like a fairy descending to earth.
They embraced each other and slowly stepped onto the dance floor. As the melodious music began, they started to dance gracefully.
At this moment, the surrounding noise and the clamor of the crowd seemed to be isolated by an invisible barrier, leaving only the two of them in the whole world. The man gently embraced her slender waist, guiding her into graceful dance steps, each step perfectly placed on the notes.
Their bodies pressed tightly together, their movements perfectly synchronized, like a pair of natural dancers. Spinning, shifting, swaying gracefully—every movement was fluid and natural, without the slightest hesitation or delay. The dance floor lights shone upon them, creating dreamlike shadows that made their figures even more captivating and mysterious.
Time seemed to stand still at that moment. All eyes were involuntarily drawn to the dancers. People were captivated by their graceful movements and deep emotions, forgetting where they were.
Fu Shiyue whispered in Ye Xingran's ear, "Actually, you are very much like an old friend of mine."
Ye Xingran was stunned. So this was the source of that sense of familiarity?
He slowly moved closer to her, the distance between them so close that they could almost feel each other's breath.
His deep eyes were fixed on her as he lowered his voice and questioned, "Who exactly are you? Why do we always seem to run into each other by such coincidence? Is it really just a coincidence? Or... is there more to it than meets the eye?"
As he spoke, an invisible pressure emanated from him, making the surrounding air seem heavy.
She remained calm and composed, showing no sign of panic. A slight, enigmatic smile played on her lips as she spoke:
"If Mr. Fu believes there's more to the story, then who am I doing this for?"
Before she finished speaking, her slender and delicate hands had already gently clung to his firm and broad chest, like a light butterfly alighting among flowers.
At the same time, her large, watery eyes stared intently at him, revealing an indescribable ambiguity that made one's heart flutter.
Fu Shiyue grasped her hand and pushed it away slightly. "Miss Ye, I want the truth."
Ye Xingran gently bit her lip, feigning a wronged expression, "Mr. Fu, you mustn't be angry when I tell you."
She took a deep breath. "Actually, I've admired your talent for a long time and deliberately created this chance encounter to find an opportunity to collaborate." A hint of doubt flashed in Fu Shiyue's eyes. "Is that all?" Ye Xingran nodded hastily.
The music slowed down, but Fu Shiyue didn't let go of her; instead, he hugged her even tighter.
"Since Miss Ye is so frank, I'll trust you this once. You're so persistent, how can I refuse? As for your contact information, I'll give it to you after the ball."
A delighted smile bloomed on Ye Xingran's delicate face, like spring flowers blossoming. This smile, as bright and captivating as a star in the night sky, was utterly enchanting.
As the lavish ball finally came to a close, Fu Shiyue, as promised, gave Ye Xingran his contact information. The moment Ye Xingran received the note, an indescribable joy welled up within her.
Then, Ye Xingran gracefully turned and left the bustling party.
She walked to a relatively quiet corner, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled, as if to release all the tension and pressure with that breath.
After letting out a long sigh of relief, she secretly rejoiced that she had managed to temporarily get through this tricky situation.
Just then, a crisp notification sound rang out, breaking the brief silence around them.
It turned out that her phone had received a text message from Lu Fei.
The text message clearly read: "Come to the basement parking lot of Xingyuan International Center. The car is a black Hongqi with license plate G7896. Come and pick up the antidote." Upon seeing this message, Ye Xingran's heart suddenly raced, and her eyes gleamed with excitement.
Because she knew that as long as she followed the instructions in the text message to the designated location, she would be able to successfully obtain the crucial antidote! Thinking of this, she couldn't help but cheer, "Great!"
Ye Xingran rushed to the basement parking lot of Xingyuan International Center and quickly found the black Hongqi car. The car window rolled down, revealing Fei Ye's cold and stern face.
She opened the back door and got in.
"Master Fei," she said coolly.
She was still the same as before, completely different from how she appeared in front of Fu Shiyue.
"Did you bring the items?" Master Fei's voice was icy.
Ye Xingran was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what was going on and hurriedly replied, "Everything was completed as planned. Fu Shiyue now believes that I just want to cooperate, and I have his contact information."
Master Fei nodded slightly and tossed out a small bottle of medicine, which Ye Xingran quickly caught.
"Don't be too happy yet. There's still a lot more for you to do. Fu Shiyue is no ordinary person. If you make a mistake, not only will you suffer, but I will also be implicated."
Ye Xingran gripped the antidote in her hand and said firmly, "Don't worry, Master Fei, I will definitely not let you down."
Fei glanced at her, rolled up the car window again, and the car slowly drove away.
Ye Xingran stood still, her gaze fixed on the car that was gradually moving away, until it disappeared at the end of the road.
Only then did she slowly exhale a breath of stale air, and her tense body relaxed.
With slightly trembling hands, she reached out and carefully unscrewed the bottle cap, looking down at the antidote inside. The transparent liquid shimmered faintly in the sunlight, as if containing boundless hope. Ye Xingran gazed at the antidote, a smile of relief gradually spreading across her beautiful face.
"No matter what, the first step was finally a success..." Ye Xingran murmured to herself, her voice as soft as a breeze rustling through the leaves.
At this moment, she was filled with joy, but she also knew that the road ahead was still rugged and difficult.
As long as she can successfully obtain the antidote again and escape this dangerous place, she will never back down, no matter how dangerous or arduous the task ahead may be.
However, the thought of having to continue dealing with Fu Shiyue made Ye Xingran frown.
She knew that Fu Shiyue was no ordinary person, and it would not be easy to get more information from him.
The competition ahead is destined to be extremely fierce, and a slight misstep could lead to total defeat.
On the way back, Lu Fei sat quietly to the side, his eyes somewhat unfocused.
He rested his chin on his hand thoughtfully, his mind replaying the scene of Ye Xingran's journey to the Chamber of Commerce.
"The mature look and expression Ah Ran had when she went to the Chamber of Commerce was something I had never seen before..." Lu Fei murmured, seemingly somewhat dissatisfied.
