Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 300 The Cunning Ye Fei

The little troublemaker, Yun Chuqing, stealthily winked at Ye Fei with a mischievous glint in her large eyes before dashing back to her bedroom. Ye Fei, on the other hand, took a seat beside his aunt, Ye Ningbing, and inquired, ”Auntie, where is Uncle Yun?”

”Heʼs gone to work,” Ye Ningbing replied, her tone slightly awkward as she inwardly lamented her husbandʼs state of mind.

Ye Fei was well aware that Yun Jing had left. His question was merely an attempt to broach the subject, hoping that his aunt, burdened by her troubles, might confide in him.

This would allow him to gradually close the distance between them. However, seeing that she seemed reluctant to elaborate, he decided not to press further.

Having already mentally claimed his aunt as his own, Ye Fei was determined that no other man, not even her husband, would touch her again.

Last night, worried about what might happen once they returned to their bedroom, he had projected his awareness to eavesdrop.

To his advantage, he overheard a conversation that would prove useful to him.

The situation had unfolded like this: After following her husband upstairs, Ye Ningbing found him already lying in bed and couldnʼt help but ask, ”Why did you come back so late?”

”Had a few drinks with friends,” Yun Jing replied indifferently.

”Today is our daughterʼs birthday. How could you still be out drinking?” Yun Jingʼs words stirred a hint of discontent in the usually gentle Ye Ningbing.

”Am I supposed to drink at home? With my lowly position, do you think I can drink with those big shots like mayors and CEOs?” Yun Jing sat up abruptly, his eyes reddening as he stared straight at Ye Ningbing, clearly agitated.

Ye Ningbing, understanding his frustrations, sighed softly, ”Youʼre Chuqingʼs father. Weʼre all family here; no one is comparing you to anyone else.”

”Canʼt I just feel upset?” Yun Jing retorted, then fell silent, turning over to slowly drift off to sleep. At that moment, Ye Fei withdrew his awareness.

Though only sixteen, Ye Fei was far from the innocence typical of his age.

Instead, he possessed an acute understanding of human nature. From this conversation and his previous observations of Yun Jing, he had pieced together the situation.

Yun Jing was exceedingly fortunate. Hailing from a poor background, he had met Ye Ningbing, the third miss of one of Wang Hai Cityʼs two major clans, the Ye family, through an introduction during their university days.

After getting to know each other, they gradually developed feelings. For reasons unknown, Ye Ningbing decided to marry him before even graduating, instantly catapulting him into the upper echelons of society.

Many envied his rise, but he himself felt increasing pressure. No matter his efforts, people attributed his success to the Ye family.

Thus, despite studying economics, he chose to enter the civil service after graduation, rejecting all assistance from the Ye family.

Had it remained so, Ye Fei would have admired him.

However, over the years, without any support, Yun Jing remained a minor official after more than a decade.

This gnawed at his pride. Ye Ningbing was the epitome of a traditional good wife. No matter how poorly Yun Jing fared, she remained devoted, free of any rich missʼs vices. Even after taking over many of the Ye familyʼs businesses, she continued to care for him and their daughter diligently.

Yet, the more she did so, the more Yun Jing felt aggrieved. He saw himself as a man of great talent, unappreciated.

While envying others who climbed the social ladder through connections, his fragile pride prevented him from accepting help from the Ye family.

This internal conflict gradually twisted his character, making him both arrogant and insecure.

Dealing with someone like him would be incredibly easy. Ye Fei was confident that he could shatter Yun Jing in an instant if he wished. However, the crux of the problem lay not with Yun Jing but with his extremely traditional aunt.

Ye Fei was certain that even if Yun Jing collapsed or went mad, his aunt would remain steadfastly by his side. Therefore, to win her over, he needed to undermine their relationship and make her utterly disillusioned with Yun Jing. Only then could he resolve the issue at its root.

Achieving this would not be difficult for Ye Fei.

Although Yun Jing was a relatively honest and family-oriented man, any flaw in his character could be exploited. His arrogance and insecurity were his Achillesʼ heel. By introducing a woman who could cater to his every whim and satisfy his vanity, Ye Fei was sure he could easily ensnare Yun Jing.

Then, he would orchestrate a scene where his aunt would witness Yun Jing with another woman. Hehe!

While plotting these sinister plans, Ye Feiʼs face wore an innocent smile. He praised his auntʼs cooking during breakfast, cracking jokes that made Ye Ningbing laugh heartily. Her initially low spirits began to lift.

After breakfast, Ye Ningbing headed upstairs to change for work. Seizing the opportunity, Ye Fei called over the little troublemaker and said earnestly, ”Chuqing, could you do me a favor?”

”What kind of favor?” the little girl asked, eager to assist her beloved brother.

Ye Fei replied, ”From now on, you must sleep with your mother every night until I say otherwise. Can you do that?”

”But will Mom agree? She usually sleeps with Dad,” the little girl hesitated.

”Thatʼs where your skills come in,” Ye Fei coached her.

”If she refuses, just make a fuss. Your mom loves you the most; she wonʼt be able to say no if you insist.”

”True,” the little girl nodded confidently, then furrowed her brow. ”But why do I need to sleep with Mom? What if she wants to be intimate with Dad?”

”Thatʼs exactly what we want to prevent. Iʼve noticed she looks quite tired lately, probably from overexertion,” Ye Fei explained. He then took out a recovery pill from his pocket and handed it to Yun Chuqing, saying, ”Try this and see how you feel.”

Without a second thought, the little girl swallowed the pill. Her spirits immediately lifted, and she exclaimed in surprise, ”I feel so much more energetic! And stronger too.”

”After what we did earlier, didnʼt you feel a bit drained?” Ye Fei asked.

Seeing Yun Chuqing nod, he continued, ”This pill is designed to restore that kind of depletion. What we did earlier was within the normal range, so you didnʼt feel much of an effect. But when you give one to your mom, youʼll see just how exhausted she really is.”

Ye Fei knew that his aunt hadnʼt slept well the previous night. The recovery pill would undoubtedly have a powerful effect on her.

”Alright then, Iʼll give it a try later,” the little troublemaker agreed, though she had already been convinced by Ye Feiʼs words.

A moment later, Ye Ningbing descended the stairs, now dressed in a formal suit, her expression somewhat strained.

Yun Chuqing, who hadnʼt initially noticed her motherʼs lack of energy, was now alerted by Ye Fei and saw that her mom indeed looked quite listless. This only reinforced her belief in what Ye Fei had said.

Ye Fei reluctantly tore his gaze away from his auntʼs mature and alluring figure and took out another recovery pill. He said to Ye Ningbing, ”Auntie, you seem a bit tired. This is a recovery pill I got from Auntie Dongfang. Give it a try.”

Naturally aware of Dongfang Ruolanʼs reputation, Ye Ningbing didnʼt hesitate to take the pill and placed it in her mouth.

The pill had no distinct flavor but dissolved instantly, sending a wave of comforting warmth through her body as soon as she swallowed it.

Ye Ningbing couldnʼt help but shudder. The fatigue from her nearly sleepless night had vanished in an instant, and she felt an immediate surge of energy and a sense of lightness in her body.

She exclaimed in amazement, ”This medicine is incredibly effective! I wonder how Auntie Dongfang managed to create it.”

Yun Chuqing, who had been intently watching her mother, had witnessed the transformation firsthand.

Any lingering doubts about Ye Feiʼs words were now completely dispelled.

She made up her mind that from then on, she would insist on sleeping with her mom, no matter what. She couldnʼt allow her dad to ”hurt” her mom anymore. For the first time, a hint of discontent began to form in her heart towards Yun Jing.

Ye Fei took out a small vial containing dozens of recovery pills and handed it to Ye Ningbing, saying, ”Here, if you ever feel tired, just take one. But Auntie, you must also pay attention to resting. Donʼt work yourself to the bone just because you have these. After all, thereʼs no end to making money. To me, the entire Ye Group isnʼt as important as you. Do you understand?”

Her nephewʼs caring words warmed Ye Ningbingʼs heart, and she smiled gently, ”Auntie knows. Thank you, Ye Fei.”

At this moment, she was truly touched by Ye Fei. Judging from the effects of these pills, they must have taken a great deal of effort from Dongfang Ruolan, and they were probably not made in large quantities.

Now, Ye Fei was giving them all to her. How could she not be moved?

However, knowing Ye Feiʼs character well, she understood that he would be very upset if she refused, so she accepted them.

”Itʼs only right,” Ye Fei said with a grin.

”Not to mention that youʼre my aunt, but even if you werenʼt, I wouldnʼt bear to see such a beautiful woman overworked.”

Ye Ningbing laughed delicately at his words, ”Youʼre getting more and more charming, arenʼt you?”

The three of them chatted and laughed as they left Ye Ningbingʼs small villa together. Ye Fei declined his auntʼs offer to give him a ride, suggesting she take Yun Chuqing to school instead.

However, before the little troublemaker got into the car, Ye Fei pulled her aside and whispered, ”Remember what we talked about earlier. But absolutely donʼt tell your mom why you want to sleep with her. If she finds out the truth, sheʼll be very embarrassed.”

”I know!” The little girl made an OK sign to Ye Fei and nodded firmly.

After watching his aunt and cousin leave, Ye Fei hailed a taxi. He had initially planned to go to the Liu Corporation building to find his mom, but when he called her, she said she had an important meeting today and wouldnʼt have time to accompany him.

Moreover, his other two targets—Ye Siqi and his mother-in-law, Xiao Hanyue—were also attending the meeting. So, he simply instructed the taxi to change direction and head towards the school.
