"Indeed, it's good wine." Long Yuqing's beautiful eyes slightly shifted, looking at Mr. Fang with a hint of assertiveness in her gaze.

One must admit, Ye Tianfan's maneuver was truly impressive. Although Mr. Fang was the ally she painstakingly invited from Hong Kong, there had to be a leader in the relationship. Ye Tianfan's sudden move instantly suppressed Mr. Fang, causing Long Yuqing to be both surprised and delighted. If she could rope him into the Long Family, wouldn't the entire Jiangzhou City be hers?

At this moment, although Mr. Fang's face showed some embarrassment, his heart was already in turmoil. Upon arriving inland, he encountered a top-notch powerhouse like Ye Tianfan! This instantly birthed the desire in Mr. Fang to recruit him.

"Brother Ye's skills are remarkable, Fang has truly witnessed them today. Since Brother Ye likes them, these two beauties shall be gifted to Brother Ye!"

As he spoke, Mr. Fang cast a meaningful glance at the twin sisters behind him and said, "From now on, you two follow Mr. Ye and make sure you take good care of him. Don't upset Mr. Ye!"

The twin sisters flushed with a hint of redness on their faces, nodded simultaneously, and turned their beautiful eyes towards Ye Tianfan. They spoke, "Please, Mr. Ye, take good care of us in the future."

Ye Tianfan raised his eyebrows, glancing at Mr. Fang. These twin sisters had been with Mr. Fang since their teens and would not have been brought to the banquet if they weren't absolutely loyal.

One must say, Mr. Fang's intrigue runs deep. On the surface, he's gifting these beauties to Ye Tianfan, but in reality, he's planting spies by Ye Tianfan's side.

This is digging a pit for Ye Tianfan to fall into!

"A gentleman doesn't take what others cherish. Mr. Fang, keep your beauties for your own enjoyment; I don't want to take others' treasures. Besides, with something prettier in front of you, who wants to eat leftovers when there's a feast?"

As he spoke, Ye Tianfan shifted his gaze to Long Yuqing, brazenly wrapping his arm around her slender waist, his eyes filled with a teasing look. He said, "Aren't you fond of domination? I can be even more domineering, wanna give it a try?"

Long Yuqing's face blushed, half-heartedly resisting, indicating reluctance yet also a hint of acceptance. With her brows lowered, she spoke, "There are others here."

With those words, Ye Tianfan turned his head to look at Mr. Fang, his eyes expressing an intention to send him away. His aura completely shifted; originally a guest at the meal, he now thoroughly took control.

"Mr. Fang? Do you want me to invite you to have a few more drinks?" Ye Tianfan's words were filled with provocation.

Just arriving inland and already hitting a snag, moreover in front of Long Yuqing, Mr. Fang was quite displeased, but he couldn't leave at this moment.

The saying goes, to accomplish great things, one shouldn't fuss over minor things, know when to advance or retreat, and understand patience! Mr. Fang, having mingled in Hong Kong for decades, climbed to the position of a Hong Kong tycoon, his intellect and cunning unmatched by ordinary people.

If he left now, it would be tantamount to becoming adversarial with Ye Tianfan!

Both Mr. Fang and Long Yuqing understood a principle: one with absolute powerful abilities should never be turned into an enemy even if they cannot be a friend.

Therefore, Mr. Fang couldn't leave; even if he did, he should leave Ye Tianfan a favor, leaving at least a good impression! When they meet in the future, at the very least, they shouldn't become enemies.

"I would certainly drink Brother Ye's wine again, but just not today, its potency is too much for me to handle." Mr. Fang smiled slightly, not waiting for Ye Tianfan to speak, he shot a sharp glance towards Long Yuqing before saying, "When I entered, I heard Brother Ye asking you for someone, was it Ji Liancheng?"

Hearing Mr. Fang's words, a bad premonition instantly surged in Long Yuqing's heart, her once smiling, flower-like face abruptly turned cold, a layer of frost appearing as she said, "That's between Ye Tianfan and me, no need for Mr. Fang to worry."

Mr. Fang smiled slightly, waving his hand and speaking, "Oh, how can you say that? Brother Ye and I hit it off instantly. Originally, I wanted to gift him these two beauties, but with you here, the alluring vulgar powder at my side doesn't stand a chance."

With these words, a bright glint flashed in Mr. Fang's eyes. Looking at Long Yuqing, he said, "Since Brother Ye wants Ji Liancheng, then give him up. Could it be that my favor doesn't surpass that of Ji Liancheng?"

The meaning of Mr. Fang's words couldn't be more clear; he intended to use a trick to manipulate the situation!

If Long Yuqing didn't give him the face, then he wouldn't give her the face either, possibly dissolving their newly formed alliance!

At this moment, anger surged within Long Yuqing like a raging storm, hitting her in waves! Fang Zaitian was openly threatening her! She wished she could tear this Mr. Fang to pieces!

But reality was as it was; Long Yuqing needed Mr. Fang's support! His power was undeniable, and compared to him, Ji Liancheng's value was negligible. Initially, it was her favor to give to Ye Tianfan, but now it had turned into Mr. Fang's.

Suppressing her inward fury, Long Yuqing forced a smile and spoke, "Certainly, Mr. Fang's favor must be given, so if Brother Ye wants Ji Liancheng, he can take him directly."

Ye Tianfan couldn't care less about the games these two played, but now that Long Yuqing had relented and agreed to let him take Ji Liancheng, why be polite?

"Thanks a lot." Ye Tianfan's gaze passed over Mr. Fang, also giving Long Yuqing a look.

Mr. Fang beamed at Ye Tianfan, slightly waving his hand and said, "Why be courteous, Brother Ye? In future, if you need help from me, just let me know. I want to have another drink with you, but not like today."

Ye Tianfan smiled intriguingly and said, "If Mr. Fang invites me for a drink, I'll surely go."

"Good, Brother Ye, I'll remember that. Next time, I'll send someone to invite you properly, and don't refuse." Mr. Fang beamed.

Ye Tianfan smiled slightly and said, "Sure."

At this point, Long Yuqing clapped her hands, and a staff member quickly entered the dining hall, handing a contract to Long Yuqing. She took a pen, swiftly signing her name on it, then handed it to Ye Tianfan, saying, "This is Ji Liancheng's termination contract, I've signed it. As long as Ji Liancheng signs, he can leave Long Group for good."

Ye Tianfan glanced at the termination contract, then tucked it into his chest, smiling slightly and said, "Thank you. It seems you and Mr. Fang have more matters to discuss, so I won't intrude on your conversation, I'm leaving."

The purpose of Ye Tianfan's visit was to secure Ji Liancheng for Qin Ruomeng; with the goal accomplished, there was no point in lingering, so he stood and headed for the door.

"Let me see you off." Long Yuqing quickly rose, following Ye Tianfan's footsteps, the two walking out of the dining hall one after the other.
