Rebirth at the Start: This Fate is Too Explosive!

Chapter 273 Because my husband's driving skills are too good!

She sighed, "My very sharp-eyed distant cousin spotted it! She works as a sales clerk at the LV store in our second-tier city, and her eyes are incredibly sharp!"

Xu Yunshu said with some distress, "So she's very familiar with what I'm wearing, and this watch too, she recognized it at a glance! The look in her eyes at that time...tsk tsk, both surprised and suspicious. Honey, you know, with my meager salary, I couldn't afford this outfit even if I didn't eat or drink! In the end, I had no choice but to tell you, honey."

She cautiously observed Ye Fan's expression: "Honey, you...you're not angry with me, are you? If I had known it would turn out like this, I wouldn't have worn these clothes back. I just made trouble for myself..."

After saying that, she nervously clutched Ye Fan's shirt, like a small animal awaiting judgment.

Ye Fan chuckled as he looked at her, picked up the iced grape juice next to him and took a sip, his movements composed.

He reached out and ruffled Xu Yunshu's hair, his tone gentle yet firm: "Just for this? What's there to be angry about?"

Under Xu Yunshu's surprised gaze, he continued, "It's only natural for girls to love beauty. If you have nice clothes and jewelry, why not wear them? Are you going to hide them? Besides, you're going home to see your parents who raised you."

Ye Fan's voice carried a worldly wisdom: "There's an old saying, 'Wealth and honor not returned home are like wearing brocade at night.' It may be a bit vulgar, but it's true. It's only natural to let those who care about you see that you're doing well, to put their minds at ease and make them happy for you. Your cousin recognized you, so just admit it openly. There's no need to hide it. You're my woman, Ye Fan's woman, so it's only right that you dress well."

Ye Fan noticed that although Xu Yunshu had relaxed a bit, her eyes were still somewhat darting around, and her fingers were unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes, clearly indicating that she still had something to say.

He put down his chopsticks, looking at her with a gentle yet insightful gaze: "Is there anything else? Let's say it all at once, don't keep it bottled up inside."

Like a primary school student being called on by the teacher, Xu Yunshu immediately lowered her head, her voice barely audible, filled with guilt and lack of confidence: "Um... honey, although I said you bought it, I... I didn't explain our relationship clearly to my family."

She took a deep breath and explained quickly, "So many relatives surrounded me and asked, and I was too embarrassed to say, so I finally said that my boyfriend bought it for me..."

Xu Yunshu was naturally referring to her being Ye Fan's mistress!

Her voice trailed off, almost burying itself in her chest: "Then...then my parents found out I had a boyfriend, and he seemed to be quite well-off. They really wanted to meet you, to see what kind of person my boyfriend was..."

At this point, she suddenly looked up, her eyes darting nervously towards Ye Fan, and added urgently, "But honey! It's really okay! If it's inconvenient for you, or you feel this isn't appropriate, I completely understand! I'll tell my parents right away that we're having relationship problems, that we had a fight and broke up! They won't say anything! Really!"

Xu Yunshu finished speaking in one breath, as if a heavy burden had been lifted, but deep in her eyes was a trace of barely perceptible loss and caution.

She has a very clear understanding of her position.

Marriage? She never even dared to dream of it.

There was a huge chasm between Ye Fan's world and hers, a distance she could never cross in her entire life.

Being able to stay by his side like this, receiving his protection and tenderness, and feeling his presence, is already an immense fortune and satisfaction for her.

She didn't ask for much; she only wished to maintain the relationship for a long time and didn't want to lose it because of any "unreasonable desires."

After listening, Ye Fan remained unusually calm, even with a knowing smile: "Then let's find some time to meet."

Xu Yunshu's eyes widened suddenly, staring at him in disbelief: "Husband, you?"

Ye Fan met her shocked gaze and said calmly, "You're my girlfriend, that's a fact, there's nothing to hide. It's only natural for your parents to know what kind of person their daughter is dating, to put their minds at ease."

Some people might think that if you're not married, there's no need to meet the parents, otherwise it will cause more trouble later. But for Ye Fan, whether or not he gets married is just a matter of whether or not he gets a marriage certificate. Everything else is irrelevant. He may be a jerk, but he's not irresponsible.

As a lawyer named Zhang San once said, as long as you don't get a marriage certificate, it's okay to marry seven women at the same time. Although it's immoral, it's not illegal!

He paused, looking at her intently. "It would be good to meet her. That way, you can be more open and honest with me, with fewer worries."

Xu Yunshu felt a lump in her throat, and her eyes were instantly filled with a warm mist, blurring her vision.

She hurriedly lowered her head, not wanting Ye Fan to see her in such a state, but her voice was already choked with sobs: "Husband, aren't you afraid that if this happens, I'll have even more reason to shamelessly cling to you for the rest of my life?"

Ye Fan said, "I always keep my word. As long as you don't want to leave, no one will force you to go. You can stay by my side forever."

Xu Yunshu was deeply moved and her attitude was firm: "Husband, I really love you to death. I want to be your concubine for the rest of my life, and I will want to be your concubine in the next life too. I will never leave you."

Ye Fan laughed and said, "You said it yourself!"

Xu Yunshu nodded emphatically: "Mmm~ What's wrong with being a concubine? Most people don't have that kind of luck. Besides, my husband, you're handsome, younger than me, rich, and even your driving skills are unparalleled. I'm basically eating young grass!"

Xu Yunshu hugged Ye Fan and whispered, "Honey, you can't kick me out in the future. Even if you don't give me money anymore, I'm still willing to be your concubine."

Ye Fan smiled and said, "Then tell me why."

Xu Yunshu rolled her eyes and said, "Hehe! Because my husband's driving skills are so good! I love it!"

Ye Fan looked at her with some surprise, thinking to himself that this woman was really addicted.

......

The next morning.

Ye Fan was still in Jiangnan Jiuxu's bedroom when his phone rang. It was Miao Zi.

"Boss, Mr. Chen Lichuan's team has been initially assembled, including the two candidates you specifically mentioned who have active market trading experience. Everyone is here and waiting for you at the Hongdou Building for the interview."

"Okay, got it. Go ahead and get ready, I'll be there shortly." Ye Fan hung up the phone.

Finally, someone will be managing his recently active trading account. Monitoring the market, placing orders, and managing risk—these tedious and mentally taxing tasks can be handed over to professionals, freeing him up to focus on more strategic investments, such as the team Chen Lichuan is currently building and projects on the scale of ByteDance.
