An Yuanyuan confronted Ji Hong, mocking her supposed reliance on marriage and the potential downfall of the Ye Family. Ji Hong remained indifferent, stating the Ye Family's fate was no longer her concern. Meanwhile, Su Changfeng, overhearing the exchange, contacted Shangguan Sichen to discreetly ask about An Yuanyuan.

An Yuanyuan hadn’t expected Ji Hong to say such a thing. After all, An Yuanyuan thought that after saying these words, Ji Hong would definitely feel very flustered. But how come she doesn’t care at all now?

Or maybe the Ye Family divorced Ji Hong, which is why she’s reacting this way?

Thinking of this, An Yuanyuan looked at Ji Hong again and mockingly said, "Ji Hong, is this because the other side divorced you?"

This kind of thing is quite disgraceful to talk about. If things really developed this way, An Yuanyuan would quite enjoy taking the opportunity to stomp on Ji Hong.

But such a thing doesn’t mean that at all, even if Ji Hong has moved out of the Ye Family now, Ji Hong is still married to Ye Tian.

Therefore, Ji Hong looked at An Yuanyuan with a smile and said, "Well, you’re wrong there. I estimate my husband will never divorce me in the future."

"Haha!"

An Yuanyuan looked at Ji Hong sarcastically and said, "Really? If things are as you say, then why do you not care about the current situation of the Ye Family at all?"

"Are you worried that if this matter is spoken out, these people will laugh at you?"

Ji Hong frowned at An Yuanyuan and said, "This matter doesn’t exist at all. I have no need to admit anything just because of your words."

"And An Yuanyuan, when the class once said I was the prettiest, I didn’t care at all, nor did I take it to heart."

"Back then, you made people say you were the prettiest through some means. I didn’t say anything either. Is it that all this time, you’ve been holding a grudge about this?"

Ji Hong didn’t want to say any more useless things to An Yuanyuan. It seemed An Yuanyuan was clearly someone who didn’t know when to quit.

In An Yuanyuan’s eyes, this kind of thing was quite disgraceful. After all, she relied on improper means and flattering others to obtain this title.

Ji Hong’s words at this time undoubtedly made An Yuanyuan feel very embarrassed, and so she immediately jumped up.

An Yuanyuan looked at Ji Hong and said, "What are you talking about? These titles were given by others themselves, what does it have to do with me?"

Ji Hong ignored An Yuanyuan, instead looking at those people and saying, "Let them speak, then. I wanted to leave you some face, originally."

"But since you have repeatedly shown hostility towards me, I have no need to hide any longer. Don’t you know in your heart who you’ve flattered?"

"Or do you think I don’t know about this matter?"

Upon hearing this, An Yuanyuan got anxious immediately and even raised her hand to strike Ji Hong.

But Ji Hong wasn’t someone who would let An Yuanyuan have her way, and she grabbed An Yuanyuan’s wrist, teasingly saying, "What’s the matter, angry out of shame?"

Seeing the situation gradually worsening, Li Qingxiang said, "Alright, there’s no need for you to argue over this matter, is there? Didn’t this happen a long time ago?"

"I really haven’t cared about this matter, but it seems someone is so petty they hold a grudge over it." Ji Hong released An Yuanyuan’s hand and spoke calmly.

Ji Hong’s words once again hit An Yuanyuan’s sore spot, so she looked at Ji Hong angrily and said, "Ji Hong, I’ll make you pay for what you’ve said now!"

Ji Hong didn’t care at all: "Do you mean you’ll target the Ye Family? If so, go ahead. I’m curious to see what skills you have."

Ji Hong’s demeanor left An Yuanyuan with no way to respond, unsure of what to say.

Su Changfeng saw this and found it amusing. After all, he had already contacted Shangguan Sichen, so An Yuanyuan’s support was all but gone now.

Those people who knew An Yuanyuan probably regret it. Naturally, they wouldn’t face off against the Ye Family.

Furthermore, Su Changfeng had contacted Wu Feng, saying to upgrade them to a higher room. Initially, Su Changfeng didn’t want such high-profile action, but now he realized he had to smack An Yuanyuan’s face hard.

Soon after, the staff arrived at the room where An Yuanyuan and others were currently.

After all, L’s status here was extremely high. If anyone knew L was here, they would strive to curry favor.

Upon seeing the staff show up, An Yuanyuan and Ji Hong somewhat paused.

Li Qingxiang felt strangely puzzled seeing these people arrive, not knowing why they suddenly came here.

Even the man leading them had extraordinary charisma, suggesting his status wasn’t ordinary.

"May I ask if there’s anything?"

Li Qingxiang looked at the man and said. Although he could boast of his prowess in front of Ji Hong and others, it didn’t mean he’d be arrogant towards everyone.

Even if Li Qingxiang had some strength, he couldn’t compare to local tycoons.

Not to mention that anyone in this place could casually be much stronger than Li Qingxiang, so naturally, Li Qingxiang was respectful when he saw the man.

"Is President Ye here? I’m the person in charge here." The visitor said with a smile.

In charge?!

That means he’s the boss. Hearing this, Li Qingxiang felt very surprised, and everyone else was shocked.

After all, owning an estate here meant one’s status wasn’t average!

It’s likely the person is much more powerful than anyone present. What was puzzling, however, was why did the boss suddenly come here?

"May I ask why you’ve come here?"

Li Qingxiang’s attitude improved when speaking to the man, worried he might offend the boss.

"We’ve upgraded your room to the top-tier room. I just need to know if President Ye is here, so I can take you there right away." The man said.

Top-tier room!
