Conquest of Taboo and Debauchery

The next day, a Monday, Ye Fei decided to go to school, despite not attending a single class the previous week. He hadn't spoken to anyone, relying on Ye Yunqi to handle his leave. Though Yu Wuxia, their teacher, knew about his family situation and wouldn't hold it against him, Ye Fei felt it was necessary to show up and maintain some normalcy.

Perhaps it was because of what Ye Fei had said the night before, but Xu Shuyun looked noticeably better today. She even got up early to make breakfast for everyone. After eating, the four of them prepared to head out. Xu Shuyun planned to take Ye Jing to Wangda University, and Ye Fei was going to accompany Ye Yunqi to school. Just as they were about to leave, a familiar car pulled up at the gate.

It was a car they had seen many times over the past few days—Zhou Mingming's. As soon as Ye Yunqi spotted it, she excitedly called out "Sister Mingming!" and ran over.

Zhou Mingming, Liu Fengyi's closest assistant, got out of the car and warmly hugged Ye Yunqi before greeting Xu Shuyun and Ye Jing. She was familiar with Ye Fei's family and had a good relationship with them.

With Zhou Mingming offering to drive them, Xu Shuyun decided to head off with Ye Jing, leaving Ye Fei and Ye Yunqi to ride with Zhou. Once in the car, Ye Yunqi, now more independent after being in a relationship with Ye Fei, didn't cling to him as much as before. She eagerly claimed the front seat next to Zhou Mingming and began firing off questions.

"Sister Mingming, what brings you here today?" she asked curiously.

Zhou Mingming smiled mischievously. "Why don't you guess?"

"How am I supposed to guess?" Ye Yunqi pouted, clearly not in the mood for suspense.

Ye Fei, noticing Zhou Mingming's cheerful expression, could tell something good had happened. "Come on, Sister Mingming, stop teasing us. What's the good news? Share it with us."

With a bright smile, Zhou Mingming chuckled. "Alright, I'll tell you. Today, a new deputy mayor is arriving from Beijing. She's an old friend of Mayor Liu, and Mayor Liu went to pick her up this morning. It's a formal event, so they sent the real agents, leaving me, the fake agent, with the day off."

Ye Fei raised an eyebrow, feeling a slight unease when he heard the mention of a new deputy mayor being close to Liu Fengyi. Ye Yunqi, sensing his thoughts, quickly asked, "Is the new deputy mayor a man or a woman?"

Zhou Mingming didn't notice Ye Fei's reaction and answered casually, "Oh, she's a woman. She and Mayor Liu were good friends back when they shared a dorm during their first work assignment. With her help, Mayor Liu should be able to relax a bit."

Ye Yunqi gave Ye Fei a reassuring look, silently telling him, "See? Nothing to worry about." Ye Fei chuckled awkwardly and changed the topic. "So, is that why you're in such a good mood today, Sister Mingming?"

"Of course," Zhou Mingming replied, smiling. "It's a happy occasion for Mayor Liu, and I'm just glad for her."

Feeling touched, Ye Fei thanked her sincerely. Zhou Mingming, understanding why he was thanking her, laughed softly. "You don't need to thank me. Mayor Liu has treated me like her own daughter since I started working for her. I'm just happy for her, and that's enough."

The conversation shifted as the car made its way to the school. Ye Fei's mind drifted to how his classmates might react to him now. With the stories about him circulating in the news, he had become a bit of a mystery to many people. He wondered if his classmates would see him as something strange or different.

When they arrived at the school gate, Zhou Mingming dropped them off and went on her way, back to her busy schedule. As Ye Fei and Ye Yunqi walked through the school grounds, he paid close attention to how the other students looked at him. It wasn't class time yet, so many students were milling about.

Though many recognized him, their expressions seemed off—not the curiosity or admiration he expected, but something colder, almost contemptuous.

Ye Fei, who had once been weak but proud, had never been looked down upon like this before. Most of the students had admired him for his resilience, despite being physically weaker. However, the looks they were giving him now confused him.

After a few moments, he realized the truth. Unlike the general public, most of these students had known him personally and had witnessed his past weaknesses firsthand. While rumors spread about his hidden strength and connections, these students believed what they had seen with their own eyes—that Ye Fei wasn't capable of achieving the things he was being credited for.

In their minds, someone else must have done the work, and Ye Fei was merely taking the credit, something they despised.

Instead of being upset, Ye Fei found himself relieved. Being underestimated gave him an advantage. He needed to keep a low profile, especially since he was certain there was a greater, more dangerous mastermind behind the scenes. At eighteen, Ye Fei's maturity and understanding of the world far exceeded his years, and he wasn't troubled by the misunderstandings of some strangers.

While Ye Fei didn't mind, Ye Yunqi did. She couldn't stand people looking down on her brother, and she whispered angrily, "Brother, why are they looking at you like that?"

Ye Fei smiled and explained his theory, trying to calm her down. Though she understood, Ye Yunqi couldn't help but feel irritated, glaring at anyone who gave Ye Fei a dirty look.

With her fiery reputation, no one dared to say anything directly, but it was clear her anger had a silencing effect on their classmates.

Instead of heading straight to the classroom, Ye Fei and Ye Yunqi first stopped by their teacher Yu Wuxia's office to explain their absence. Yu Wuxia didn't scold them, instead offering them kind words of comfort, expressing sympathy for the recent death of Ye Lingtian.

She even smiled playfully, teasing, "Xiaoman, I didn't expect you to be so impressive! You've been hiding your talents. And Qiqi, you didn't say anything either. I'm starting to feel like you two don't see me as family anymore!" She blinked playfully at Ye Fei, her usual serious demeanor softened.

This unexpected playful side of Yu Wuxia made Ye Fei's heart skip a beat. Today, she wasn't in her usual teacher's attire but wore a light white blouse and a long sky-blue skirt. The air in the office was warm, and two buttons of her blouse were undone, revealing a hint of her cleavage. Ye Fei couldn't help but let his eyes linger.

Yu Wuxia noticed his gaze, and for the first time, she felt a bit flustered. Though her heart belonged to Liu Junyi, being looked at this way by Ye Fei, a boy she had known since childhood, stirred something in her. It wasn't discomfort, but rather a subtle feeling of pride.

As they left the office, Ye Yunqi playfully pinched Ye Fei's waist, scolding him. "You're such a pervert!"

Ye Fei, startled, asked, "What did I do?"

"You know what you did," Ye Yunqi teased. "Don't think I didn't notice the way you were ogling Teacher Yu. I still haven't forgotten what happened in class last time."

Grinning, Ye Fei replied cheekily, "Didn't we settle that already? Besides, didn't you say you wanted to find someone to help you handle me?"

"Don't get too carried away," Ye Yunqi huffed. "Too many, and I might not get my turn."

Ye Fei laughed. "Don't worry about that. I can handle as many as you bring. Haven't you seen what I'm capable of?"

Though she knew how strong Ye Fei was, Ye Yunqi only giggled and said, "Alright, then I'll find a few more to help deal with you. We'll see if we can wear you out!" With that, she dashed ahead, laughing.

When they returned to the classroom, it was almost time for the next class. A group of classmates immediately surrounded Ye Fei, all talking at once.

"Ye Fei, you're incredible! You're the chairman of the Ye Group now! If I told people the chairman of Ye Group was in our class, no one would believe me!"

"Yeah, we didn't even know until we saw the news last night! You've been keeping this a secret from us."

Though Ye Fei hadn't been close to many of his classmates, they were all genuinely impressed, even proud to have him in their class. Their words were sincere.

Ye Fei smiled and responded modestly, "It's just a title. My main job is still being a student." Inside, though, he sighed. Ye Ningshuang had already held a press conference announcing him as chairman without telling him. She clearly wanted to push him into the spotlight.

Despite the sudden responsibility, Ye Fei understood why she did it. Not only did she want to pass the family business to its rightful heir, but she also wanted to ensure he had a high status, protecting him from any judgment about their relationship if it ever became public.

Additionally, she hoped to create more opportunities for them to spend time together. Ye Fei was happy by Ye Ningshuang's painstaking efforts and decided to love her well the next time they met.

Sitting down with Ye Yunqi, Ye Fei smiled at Lin Ling who was sitting next to him, and Lin Ling smiled back at him. Although the two did not speak, they could both feel each other's deep affection for themselves. Looking at Ye Yunqi on the right and then at Lin Ling on the left, Ye Fei suddenly felt satisfied in his heart.

With these two girls who loved him by his side, and three more mature and attractive beauties who were more attractive and tender when caring about him, this kind of happiness was really intoxicating.

The third class in the morning was physical education. When Ye Fei and his friends walked to the playground, Tang Rou was already waiting there. Although they hadn't seen her for nearly half a month, she seemed not to have changed at all. She was still as stern as ever, but compared to the first class, she seemed a little more easy-going.

However, when she saw Ye Fei standing in the crowd, Tang Rou's casual attitude immediately disappeared, and she said indifferently: "Ye Fei, step out!"

Ye Fei didn't quite understand why this woman wanted to cause trouble for him again, but he still stood up and looked straight at Tang Rou.

After what happened that day, Tang Rou's impression of Ye Fei had improved a lot, and she could even say that she liked him a little. However, although she was a family friend of the Liu family, she didn't know much about Ye Fei, so after hearing about Ye Fei's deeds, she had the same idea as those students in the school.
