Return Of The Soldier King Chapter 60 His Name Is Su Di

"Who is it that makes you so happy just by mentioning him?"

"He is my little brother!"

Liu Manman beamed, "Of course, not a real little brother. His name is Su Di. He's one year younger than me and he is studying here in Shanghai. Well, we are from the same village. He… hehe, he is my boyfriend."

"You have a boyfriend?" Ye Fei was surprised, "So why did you want me to become your boyfriend?"

"Well, I've known Su Di for three years, but... we are only friends. I said he was my boyfriend because that's what I wish would happen."

Liu Manman hurriedly explained, animatedly waving her hands, "Su Di's family is also poor, like mine. He was admitted to a university, but couldn't afford to study there. Fortunately, he met me online and I gave him the money for his tuition. We can't meet very often, but during the holidays we can still go out and have fun together. He doesn't know I am a model, though. He thinks I'm a corporate manager in charge of marketing. He adores me."

"You paid his tuition? And you met each other online?" Ye Fei screwed up his features incredulously.

Liu Manman pulled out her phone to show Ye Fei a photo of her and Su Di together.　

To comply with her fake ident.i.ty, Liu Manman wore a white dress and a ponytail. She looked smart and capable.

The boy was sticking out his tongue and making a funny face.

He looked about the same as Liu Manman. His skin was very smooth and he had very big eyes with slightly discolored pupils. He obviously wore contact lenses. He also wore eyeliner, like a South Korean pop star. A closer inspection revealed that the watch on his wrist was the newest "Apple Watch", worth more than 4000 Yuan.

Su Di did not look like a poor college student at all. Ye Fei gave Liu Manman a sidelong glance.

"Do all poor students from remote villages wear 4000 Yuan watches these days?"

"I bought it for him. Su Di said all the students in his cla.s.s had them and they were making fun of him for not having one," Liu Manman said. "Anyway, 4000 Yuan is not that much, as long as I work hard to earn the money."

Ye Fei remained silent. He thought Su Di was less a poor college student and more a wily boy toy who played with women's emotion for his own benefit.

Liu Manman usually seemed very clever, so why did she not see that?

However, Ye Fei didn't want to voice any a.s.sumptions before he met this Su Di in person. He might actually be a good kid.

Ye Fei casually inquired further about Su Di and found that when Su Di stayed with Liu Manman, he usually only talked about food and famous brands and never said anything about his schoolwork. She couldn't name his major, either.

Ye Fei looked deeply at Liu Manman and saw the happiness in her eyes. He took a sip from his beer and said, "As long as you like him, that's enough."

In Ye Fei's view, Su Di had nothing to do with him. He didn't want to interfere.

Liu Manman made her own money. If she really wanted to spend it on Su Di, it was none of Ye Fei's business.

It was already four o'clock in the morning and Ye Fei was ready to go back to meditate and practice his martial arts.

As the saying goes, "Once in morning is worth twice in the evening."

Mornings were a lot fresher and more vigorous. Before breakfast Ye Fei could get twice the results with half the effort in his martial arts practice.

Ye Fei kept practicing in his little room until eight in the morning. Although he didn't really sleep all night, he felt very energetic, his whole body full of vigor.

By the time Lin Qingwan got up and finished was.h.i.+ng up, brus.h.i.+ng her hair and doing her makeup, it was ten o'clock. She had a quick breakfast and then set off to the company offices with Ye Fei.

With Xue Bing's death, there was a sudden gap in the company's leaders.h.i.+p that had to be dealt with. Lin Qingwan had three consecutive meetings and it was already two o'clock in the afternoon by the time she was done. Then she started dealing with paperwork.

Ye Fei was happy that day because he didn't need to protect Lin Qingwan.

Xue Bing was dead and Fire Dragon was on the run. Although Ye Fei still didn't know who wanted to a.s.sa.s.sinate Lin Qingwan, it seemed that the police's intervention was enough to dissuade them from further attempts on her life.

Ye Fei had nothing much to do all day, so he stayed in Lin Qingwan's office to surf the internet or practice martial arts.

Things went on more or less the same way for a week.

One day, after Lin Qingwan concluded a meeting, she entered her office and saw Ye Fei taking a nap. "Oi, get up," she poked him in the ribs. "I have dealt with the company's most pressing issues, so I can take it easy for some time until next month. By the way, have you found any clues about whoever's trying to kill me?"

"The enemy does not move, so I will not move. But if they dare to try anything, I will..." Ye Fei smiled.

"Just give me a quick summary." After a fortnight of daily interaction, Lin Qingwan was quite familiar with Ye Fei's character.

"I got nothing." Ye Fei told the truth. As the sniper they caught wouldn't tell the police anything, the investigation had essentially ground to a halt.

Lin Qingwan looked at the watch, and said, "All right, let's go to Shanghai University. My cla.s.s is about to start."

"You're going to college? Do you even have the time?" Ye Fei was surprised. Instead of taking a break, she went to college to study?

"What are you talking about? Of course I have to study. All the department managers in the company have MBAs or doctorates. I was actually studying for my MBA in the United States, but now that I moved here I had to transfer to Shanghai University."
