Urban Seduction: Housewives Club

Chapter 410: Siyaoʼs Persistence

Having made up his mind, Ye Fei didnʼt hesitate any longer. He got into his car and drove straight towards the direction of Ye Siyaoʼs martial arts school.

Soon, Ye Fei arrived at the building where the martial arts school was located. What struck him as odd was the unusual bustle of the place.

At the entrance of the building, a crowd had gathered, and from the cameras and other equipment they were holding, Ye Fei deduced that these were journalists. It seemed that a notable figure was expected to arrive today, likely a celebrity, given that the majority of the journalists present were from the entertainment industry.

After parking his car in the parking lot, Ye Fei saw a security guard approaching and casually asked, ”Whatʼs going on here today? So many journalists?”

The security guard, recognizing the luxury car Ye Fei was driving, didnʼt dare to be negligent and explained, ”I heard that Wang Xiaoming is coming here today, and these entertainment journalists have gone crazy.”

”Wang Xiaoming? Why would he come here?” Ye Fei was taken aback. He had heard of this person, a male celebrity who had gained considerable fame in recent years.

Although his acting skills were nothing to write home about and he was mostly known for posturing, he had managed to stay at the top of the entertainment industry, thanks to the backing of a powerful director.

Through aggressive promotion, he had become a well-known figure. Ye Fei had ventured into the entertainment business precisely to challenge people like him, to give those with real talent who refused to sell themselves a chance to shine.

The security guard, of course, had no idea about Ye Feiʼs intentions and replied, ”I heard that someone from Feiyang Martial Arts School invited him. They probably want to do some publicity.”

This struck the security guard as odd. He had been working as a security guard here for a long time and had witnessed the opening of Feiyang Martial Arts School. Since the owner was an incredibly beautiful woman, they had all unconsciously paid attention to the school.

After its opening, the school had maintained a low profile. Although it taught genuine martial arts, the number of students had never been very high. It was surprising to see them resorting to hiring a celebrity for publicity today.

The security guardʼs curiosity was nothing compared to Ye Feiʼs.

Why would Siyao, who had agreed to help him, invite a celebrity?

And why was she still planning to promote the school?

Eager to get to the bottom of this, Ye Fei politely thanked the security guard and strode towards the entrance.

Although in terms of appearance, he was far superior to the celebrity, and his status was incomparable to that of a minor star, few people outside his circle knew his true identity.

The entertainment journalists, who were only interested in trivial gossip, were even less likely to recognize him.

Thus, he managed to pass through the crowd smoothly, took the elevator to the top floor, and entered the martial arts school.

The school was also bustling with activity. Ye Siyao, dressed in a practice uniform, was standing in the middle of the hall, directing the students to set up something.

To his surprise, Jin Dashun, whom Ye Fei had previously confronted, was also there, helping to direct everyone.

”Sis...” Ye Fei quickly walked up to Ye Siyao and began to call out ”sis,” but then remembered that his role here should be that of a flyswatter for his sister. He grabbed her hand and changed his greeting to, ”Honey, what are you all doing?”

Ye Feiʼs endearing term caused Ye Siyaoʼs face to flush instantly, but a wave of happiness surged within her. She smiled at him and said, ”Weʼre preparing to promote the martial arts school. It just so happens that Jin Dashun knows Wang Xiaoming, so we invited him. Heʼll be here soon, and we need to get everything set up.”

Ye Fei pulled his sisterʼs hand and moved aside, asking in a low voice, ”Why are you promoting the school again? Arenʼt you planning to help me at the gang?”

”Itʼs precisely because I want to help you that Iʼm planning to promote the school properly,” Ye

Siyao replied with a smile, also speaking in a low voice. Seeing that her brother seemed puzzled, she instinctively reached out to pat his head, only to realize that he had grown taller than her.

She settled for a gentle touch on his chest and continued, ”This is, after all, my first business venture. Although Iʼm ready to let it go now, I donʼt want to leave it in a half-hearted way. I want to make it big before I leave.”

Ye Fei couldnʼt help but chuckle and shake his head. ”Who said you canʼt run the school if you join me? Thereʼs not much to do in the gang on a regular basis, so you can still continue with the school. And even if you want to promote it, why resort to hiring some washed-up celebrity?”

Disdainful of those who rose to fame through hype, Ye Feiʼs voice rose slightly as he spoke.

Ever since Ye Fei entered the room, Jin Dashun had been keeping an eye on him. Seeing him immediately take hold of Ye Siyaoʼs hand, which he himself had tried so hard to reach without success, he couldnʼt help but feel a pang of jealousy.

When Ye Siyao casually touched Ye Feiʼs chest, Jin Dashun mistook it for flirting, which further fueled his burning envy. Unable to contain himself any longer upon hearing Ye Fei dismiss Wang Xiaoming as a washed-up star, Jin Dashun sneered, ”Washed-up star? Do you even know who Wang Xiaoming is? Why donʼt you try inviting someone like him and see how it goes?”

In Jin Dashunʼs eyes, Ye Fei was nothing more than a pretty-boy who had latched onto Ye Siyao.

Although Ye Fei seemed to be quite capable in a fight, this was not an era where physical prowess was everything, so Jin Dashun spoke without any politeness.

After being slighted by Jin Dashun, Ye Fei merely offered a faint smile and didnʼt bother to retort. Given his status, he naturally didnʼt deign to argue with such a minor character. Moreover, regardless of Jin Dashunʼs intentions, he had, after all, helped Ye Siyao with this matter, so Ye Fei was even less inclined to take issue with him.

While Ye Fei was willing to let the matter go, Ye Siyao was not.

Protecting Ye Fei had become second nature to her, a habit formed due to his physical condition.

Although Ye Fei no longer needed her protection, this habit was not something that could be easily changed.

Moreover, the term of endearment Ye Fei had used had filled her heart with sweetness, amplifying her affection for him. She couldnʼt stand to see him wronged in the slightest.

With a stern expression, Ye Siyao turned to face Jin Dashun and said, ”Who asked for your input while we were talking? Donʼt think that just because youʼve done something for the school, you have the right to interfere. If you donʼt want to help, you can send Wang Xiaoming back anytime. I was actually reluctant to use him in the first place!”

Overcome with anger, Ye Siyao, who was usually as cold as ice but always maintained a calm demeanor, spoke these words quite harshly.
