Ye Feng looked at Jiang Tao with a half-smile, his meaning quite obvious.
It was clear he was retaliating for what Jiang Tao had done to him earlier.
Hearing Ye Feng's words, Jiang Tao's entire face turned extremely awkward. This was the very move Jiang Tao had used on Ye Feng before.
Now that Ye Feng had used the same tactic against him, Jiang Tao was so angry he almost spat blood.
Ye Feng, seeing his face turn as red as a pig's liver, felt a secret surge of satisfaction.
"Serves you right for showing off, for being smug, for flaunting yourself before..."
"What goes around, comes around!"
"Now you know you were wrong!"
But Jiang Tao seemed unwilling to give up. He spoke, "Your house is so big, with so many rooms? How could there not be enough beds..."
Before he could finish, Liu Yingying interjected, "Jiang Tao, they already said there aren't enough beds. Why are you still hanging around?"
"Exactly! Plus, your place is just across the street, it's so close. Why do you insist on crowding here?" Jiang Qingqing also chimed in.
Seeing this, Ye Feng couldn't help but laugh inwardly.
Jiang Tao was even more bewildered. He remembered that these two girls had helped him confront Ye Feng in the same way before.
He never imagined that it would all be turned back on him, Jiang Tao. The feeling was as awful as eating dirt.
He had originally planned to bring everyone to laugh at Ye Feng. Now, it had turned into everyone laughing at Jiang Tao.
With a dark expression, he was both ashamed and angry, but he couldn't lash out.
After a moment of hesitation, he reluctantly said, "This, this... alright!"
With that, Jiang Tao turned and left without another word.
Once he was out of Ye Feng's luxurious mansion, he couldn't help but roar at the air.
He cursed with all sorts of vulgarities from the bottom of the mansion all the way to the gate, only stopping when he got into his car.
Ye Feng and the others on the upper floor watched this scene clearly, their expressions all varied and peculiar.
After Jiang Tao left, Ye Feng invited everyone to sit in the living room and chat for a while.
At this moment, Ye Feng noticed that the attitudes of his aunt's family had completely changed.
His uncle, abandoning his previously arrogant demeanor, spoke in a gentle and amiable tone, praising Ye Feng for his youthful achievements and his mother for her excellent upbringing.
As for his cousin Liu Yingying, she kept addressing him as "cousin," calling him with such warmth.
Finally, Jiang Qingqing's look of disdain had vanished, replaced by eyes filled with admiration and affection.
Their drastic change in attitude made Ye Feng sigh at the fickleness of human nature.
Ye Feng chatted with them for a while longer until it was getting late, and everyone dispersed.
Since he was tired from the day, Ye Feng decided to take a shower and go to bed.
While he was showering, Liu Yingying and Jiang Qingqing were chatting in another room.
"Yingying, I never imagined your cousin would be so outstanding! So young, yet he already lives in a mansion and runs a company. He's truly a dragon among men, accomplished beyond his years!" Jiang Qingqing said with admiration.
Liu Yingying sighed in agreement, "Indeed! My cousin is a credit to his prestigious alma mater, being so low-key and profound! To think none of us realized it!"
"Alas, if I had known he was this accomplished, I would have presented myself better! I wonder if I left a bad impression on him today!"
Jiang Qingqing's face was filled with regret as she thought about her attitude and words earlier.
"It's alright! My cousin probably isn't that petty!" Liu Yingying said.
Hearing this, Jiang Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good! By the way, when we came earlier, didn't you say you would introduce me to him?"
Liu Yingying frowned at this, "Didn't you say in the car that you weren't interested in him? You even blamed us for introducing him to you!"
"Oh, that was then, and this is now! Just help me ask if he has a girlfriend. If not, introduce me to him!" Jiang Qingqing pleaded.
Liu Yingying's expression turned hesitant.
"Oh, Yingying, please help me! If I become your cousin-in-law in the future, you'll definitely benefit!" Jiang Qingqing winked at her.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yingying thought about it carefully and then nodded, "That's true! I'll ask him when he's done showering."
A short while later, Ye Feng emerged from the bathroom after his shower.
As soon as he came out, he saw Liu Yingying and Jiang Qingqing waiting at the door.
"Huh? What are you two doing here?" Ye Feng asked, puzzled.
Liu Yingying then asked, "Cousin! Are you, are you busy right now?"
Ye Feng, wiping the water from his hair, asked doubtfully, "I'm not busy now. What's up?"
"Not busy? That's great! We haven't seen each other for so many years, cousin. We want to chat with you!" Liu Yingying said with a smile.
Ye Feng had intended to go to bed, but since they had asked, he couldn't refuse and agreed, "Alright!"
Thus, Liu Yingying and Jiang Qingqing followed Ye Feng into the living room and sat down to chat.
Liu Yingying started by saying, "Cousin, I find you so handsome after your shower!"
Jiang Qingqing, standing beside her, chimed in, "Yes! I suddenly admire people like Brother Ye Feng who are low-key and profound..."
As soon as they started speaking, they were either praising Ye Feng's handsomeness or his low-key nature, making Ye Feng feel a bit embarrassed.
However, Ye Feng knew the reason for their behavior – it was because they knew he was rich.
Ye Feng clearly remembered how arrogant and dismissive they had been towards him before, even addressing him by his given name.
Now that they knew he owned a multi-million dollar mansion and had started a company, they were calling him "cousin" one after another.
This transformation made Ye Feng want to laugh.
After chatting for a few minutes, Jiang Qingqing tugged at Liu Yingying's sleeve.
Sensing the cue, Liu Yingying immediately asked, "By the way, cousin, do you have a girlfriend?"
"Yes! Why do you ask?" Ye Feng replied, confused.
Jiang Qingqing, who had been looking forward to it, immediately showed a displeased expression upon hearing this.
Liu Yingying also looked awkward and continued, "Oh, no, it's nothing! It's getting late, you should get some sleep."
With that, she pulled Jiang Qingqing back to the room where they were staying.
"Uh, no, didn't you say you wanted to chat with me? Is that it?" Ye Feng felt completely bewildered.
However, since they had already left, Ye Feng returned to his room to sleep.
On the other side, after returning to the room, Liu Yingying said to Jiang Qingqing, "See, it's not that I didn't help you. My cousin already has a girlfriend."
"Damn it, why do such excellent men already have girlfriends?" Jiang Qingqing stomped her foot in frustration.
Seeing this, Liu Yingying said helplessly, "Alas, what can you do? Excellent men are just like that! Alright, it's late, time to sleep!"
Not long after they lay down, Liu Yingying fell asleep.
However, Jiang Qingqing remained awake, lost in thought. After a while, she muttered to herself, "No, I absolutely cannot miss this opportunity for a life-changing leap!"
A few seconds later, a bold idea suddenly flashed through Jiang Qingqing's mind. She immediately got up, opened the door, and walked out...
