"Although Yunxi Mountain doesn’t have this magical hot spring, the natural environment and scenery there are even better than here. If it could be fully developed into a high-end resort, it would definitely bring extremely high profits and commercial value to Ye Corporation."
Qiu Yuying stood beside Ye Yaxin, her lips parting lightly as she applied her lipstick.
"What are the two beauties talking about?"
Just then, Xiao Yifeng came over with his hands in his pockets, smiling at the two women.
Looking at Xiao Yifeng, Ye Yaxin huffed and walked away without paying any attention to him.
Xiao Yifeng touched his nose with an embarrassed look on his face. It seemed this woman was really angry this time.
Moreover, Xiao Yifeng caught a whiff of jealousy. Could it be that this woman was jealous?
Or could it be that his cold and arrogant CEO fiancée had started to like him?
Xiao Yifeng thought to himself.
"How did you manage to offend Ya Xin this time?"
Qiu Yuying’s gaze fell on Xiao Yifeng.
"Maybe because I didn’t satisfy her last night,"
Xiao Yifeng curled his lip—fortunately, Ye Yaxin didn’t hear this, otherwise, it might have been a volcanic eruption.
Hearing Xiao Yifeng’s response, Qiu Yuying rolled her eyes at him directly.
"By the way, why isn’t Su Yan here? Where is she?"
Xiao Yifeng suddenly asked Qiu Yuying. He had wanted to ask Ye Yaxin, but given the circumstances, that clearly wasn’t possible, so he had to ask Qiu Yuying instead.
"Why are you interested in Ya Xin’s secretary? Could it be that..."
Qiu Yuying looked at Xiao Yifeng with a strange glint in her eyes.
"I’m just curious, just asking," Xiao Yifeng hurriedly explained.
"Su Yan has resigned!"
Xiao Yifeng looked startled, his pupils contracted as he said, "What happened? Why did she suddenly resign?"
"I’m not sure about the details either. Even Ya Xin doesn’t know. She came to the company early this morning and submitted her resignation letter directly. Even Ya Xin’s attempts to persuade her were futile."
Qiu Yuying shook her head.
Xiao Yifeng’s frown deepened. Just then, his cellphone dinged, and a new message arrived.
When Xiao Yifeng opened the message, it was from Su Yan.
"Thank you for rescuing me from Yang Hao’s hands, and also for not letting the president know my true identity. However, I no longer have the right to stay with the Ye family. Let’s consider last night’s events as my way of repaying you. Don’t worry about me. I’m leaving. Maybe we’ll meet again if fate allows it!"
After reading the message, Xiao Yifeng’s eyes sharpened, his gaze flickering intensely.
Xiao Yifeng hadn’t expected Su Yan to leave without a word to him, and it seemed everything that happened the previous night was done deliberately by her.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Qiu Yuying noticed something off about Xiao Yifeng and asked with some curiosity.
"I’m fine." Xiao Yifeng put away his phone, shook his head, and felt an indescribable mixture of complexity and melancholy.
Although he and Su Yan didn’t share deep feelings, after all, she had given him her first time, and now that she had left, he felt somewhat guilty.
"How could you do this? You are going back on your word, showing no integrity whatsoever!"
Suddenly, a quarrel broke out. Xiao Yifeng turned his head sharply and saw Ye Yaxin looking furious as she argued with a suit-clad, somewhat balding middle-aged man at the resort entrance.
Xiao Yifeng and Qiu Yuying hurried over to the scene.
"What’s wrong with Ya Xin?"
Qiu Yuying walked over to Ye Yaxin and asked with confusion.
"I had reserved Mount Lan Hot Springs for an entire day, but just now, the manager of the resort told me that it has been booked by someone else and asked us to leave!"
Ye Yaxin spoke with a troubled face. She had specially organized this resort trip to reward the employees, and naturally felt angry upon hearing this news.
"President Ye, I am really sorry for the inconvenience and trouble caused to you. We will definitely compensate you, but please, just go back now, and come another day. Next time, I’ll make all charges complimentary, how about that?"
The manager spoke with a troubled look on his face.
"Do you think I, Ye Yaxin, can’t afford it?"
Ye Yaxin scoffed coldly, exuding a powerful aura, her demeanor icy and her presence formidable.
"Of course not, I..." The manager’s forehead began to sweat as he hastily tried to explain.
"I don’t need your compensation or free offers. Since I’ve already reserved this place in advance and you agreed to it, we must be allowed in today."
Ye Yaxin spoke with determination, radiating the aura of a powerful queen.
"Please don’t make it difficult for me, President Ye. The person who reserved the place today is someone I simply cannot afford to offend. If I let you in, my resort would be done for."
The manager looked as if he were on the verge of tears, his face covered with sweat.
"Well, I would like to see who this person you’re talking about is."
Ye Yaxin said fearlessly, her eyes gleaming sharply.
At that moment, a procession of black luxury cars drove up the mountain road leading to the resort.
In the lead was a convoy of black Mercedes Benz, followed by a limited edition Bentley worth over six million.
The luxurious motorcade took many of the Ye Corporation employees by surprise.
The attention of Ye Yaxin and others was drawn to the line of luxury cars, and the resort’s manager hurried forward to greet them.
Soon, one by one, men in black suits and sunglasses stepped out of the black Mercedes Benz, each emitting a daunting aura that induced chills in onlookers and a sense of ruthlessness.
The employees of Ye Corporation instinctively took a few steps back, feeling an innate fear of these men.
Next, two middle-aged men got out of another black Mercedes, dressed in black vests, both tall and muscular with the air of formidable men.
Their eyes carried a ruthless glare; it was clear they were ruthless individuals who had taken many lives.
These two middle-aged men quickly stepped up to the Bentley, and following them, a slender man with a somewhat cold face got out of the front seat of the Bentley and opened the rear door.
As the rear door of the Bentley opened, a burly middle-aged man dressed in a mink coat and alligator skin shoes stepped out of the car.
His eyes were cold and ruthless, emitting a terrifying aura that instilled an inexplicable sense of fear in those around him.
