Ye Qingrou had a quirky personality. If you didn't read the letter, it would be hard to understand her intention. Fang Zhicheng opened the letter and read it. "Dear husband, I'm so bored here in England. I've made an important decision and plan to return home secretly during the Spring Festival. I'm sending you my spare clothes so that you don't have to carry clothes with you. In addition, I'm afraid that you, a heartless man, will forget me, so I'm sending you a few recent photos of me. There are a few men on the photos who are not as handsome as you. Don't be jealous after you see them. Please believe that I only love you deeply. - Your beloved Xiaorou."

After Fang Zhicheng finished reading the letter, he took another look at the women's clothing. Not only did he and Ye Meizi look at each other in surprise, but they both burst into laughter. Ye Meizi covered her mouth and laughed, "Xiao Rou is really too funny. She actually did such an outrageous thing. I was really defeated by her."

Fang Zhicheng was also a little helpless, and sighed softly: "She is actually a very clean little girl at heart, and she is so willful and capricious in the hope of gaining attention from others. How do you think I should respond to her?"

Ye Meizi pondered for a moment and said softly, "I think you should just go along with her."

"Go along with her?" Fang Zhicheng was a little confused, because he originally thought that Ye Meizi would be more willing to persuade him and stay away from Ye Qingrou.

Ye Meizi nodded solemnly and said, "You can be said to be Xiaorou's only spiritual support now. If I reject her, I'm afraid she won't be able to hold on and will collapse. No one can imagine what she will become."

"Uh..." Fang Zhicheng touched his chin subconsciously and asked curiously, "Am I really that important?"

Ye Meizi smiled and nodded, saying, "Girls in adolescence have very strange personalities. Although she is a little rebellious, she has decided that you are hers... and will love you at all costs... That's why she does something seemingly crazy like this."

Fang Zhicheng smiled awkwardly and said, "Have you ever done something similar before?"

Ye Meizi smiled lightly and said, "Although it's not so exaggerated, I have done some stupid things."

Seeing Ye Meizi's fresh and charming smile, Fang Zhicheng suddenly asked, "Would you like to share it?"

Ye Meizi shyly shook her head and said, "Of course not!"

She looked at Fang Zhicheng with burning eyes, and finally understood why her cousin Ye Qingrou was so in love with Fang Zhicheng. Fang Zhicheng was a man who could easily let people down. To put it simply, if it was someone else, she would never be able to sit opposite him in the hotel room so late, talk freely, and talk about her first love experience.

Fang Zhicheng no longer forced himself. When communicating with beautiful women, one must be careful about the degree, especially with a woman like Ye Meizi. One must not rush, otherwise he will feel disgusted. Fang Zhicheng and Ye Meizi have been in contact for quite a while. The first chat opened up the gap between their hearts. It must be said that Ye Meizi is a rare woman among the daughters of wealthy families. She has a gentle temper and a pure and kind heart, which makes him want to take the initiative to protect her.

After seeing Ye Meizi off, Fang Zhicheng opened the envelope and took out a recent photo of Ye Meizi. After not seeing her for a few months, Ye Qingrou had grown up a lot, with a graceful figure, smooth curves, and a more charming look between her eyebrows.

Fang Zhicheng stared at the tall and strong foreign youth beside her. For some reason, he felt angry. He frowned and pouted, saying, "Such a beautiful flower must not be taken away by a foreign devil."

Chapter 0220 Meng Fanchao noticed the change

The large round table for seventeen people was fully occupied. The waitresses in cheongsams were flitting among the people like butterflies, serving exquisite dishes or refilling drinks for everyone present from time to time.

Wang Tong sat in the main seat, stood up and said to Meng Fanchao beside him with a smile: "Secretary Meng, thank you for coming to my birthday party today. It really brings honor to my humble home."

Wang Tong held a birthday party today. All the people present were his friends, and the one Wang Tong valued the most was undoubtedly Meng Fanchao. Although Wang Tong and Qian Dechen were sworn brothers, the one who really helped him the most was Meng Fanchao, the secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission. Meng Fanchao provided a lot of help to Wang Tong in the early days of his business, and he was the biggest help for Wang Tong to take over Dongtai.

Wang Tong knew that he could not invite Qian Dechen to this year's birthday party, but he was still very happy that Meng Fanchao could come, because Meng Fanchao was actually Qian Dechen's spokesperson and the bridge between the two.

Meng Fanchao is the right-hand man of the county party secretary Qian Dechen. Over the years, Qian Dechen deliberately distanced himself from Wang Tong, but the relationship between Meng Fanchao and Wang Tong became closer and closer.

Wang Tong was able to accept the fact that Qian Dechen was distancing himself from him. After all, he had been involved in too many bad things. If Qian Dechen wanted to move up, he had to keep a certain distance from him.

However, Wang Tong still regarded Qian Dechen as his elder brother in his heart, and silently handled some things for Qian Dechen that he could not do as the county party secretary.

Meng Fanchao patted Wang Tong on the shoulder and said, "Old Wang, this is too polite. Why should we be so polite to each other?"

The two men finished the wine in their glasses, and Wang Tong clapped his hands. At this time, the lights in the house dimmed, and the colorful lights on the stage opposite the dining table flashed, and a slim female host walked up.

The female host introduced herself: "Hello everyone, I am Xinxin from Xinshang Model Company. Today is Mr. Wang's birthday. Our Xinshang company has prepared a large catwalk show. I wish Mr. Wang a happy birthday and may he be eighteen every year."

As soon as these words came out, the crowd below burst into laughter. Meng Fanchao said to Hong Jing beside him, "This little model in your company is quite interesting."

Hong Jing quickly said, “Since Brother Meng likes it, then after the show is over, ask him to come over and have a few drinks with you.”

Meng Fanchao smiled noncommittally and looked towards the stage. The music started at the right time, and four or five models in revealing clothes came out one after another, posing in charming and sexy poses. The stage lights shone on the models to the rhythm of the music, making them look even more sexy and dreamy.

Hong Jing established this modeling company with the funding from Meng Fanchao. On the surface, she often participated in some public activities, such as real estate exhibitions, car shows and other large-scale events, but secretly used these models for paid public relations.

The models who were able to walk the stage at Wang Tong's birthday party today were undoubtedly outstanding models. They were all over 1.7 meters tall, with slender legs and exposed skin, adding a lot of pink flavor to the birthday party. These models also knew that tonight's performance was extremely important. Maybe they would win the favor of a big shot, and their status in the company would rise in the future.

Just as he was concentrating on watching one of the models dancing around a steel pipe in the center of the stage like a snake, a person hurriedly walked out of the door, came up to Meng Fanchao, and whispered something in his ear.

Meng Fanchao's originally relaxed and happy face was instantly covered with a layer of frost, and he asked back: "What? Are you telling the truth?"

Wang Tong's attention was on Meng Fanchao from time to time. He soon realized that his complexion was abnormal and looked at Meng Fanchao with a puzzled look.

Meng Fanchao stretched out his hand and glanced at Wang Tong, then said indifferently, "Boss Wang, I'm sorry, I have to excuse myself. You guys continue to play, I have something to deal with right now."

Seeing that something was not right, Hong Jing quickly extended her hand to signal the performance to be interrupted. The lights were turned on again. Meng Fanchao had lost his appetite and stood up to walk out. Wang Tong hurriedly followed him and asked in confusion, "Secretary Meng, what happened?" Wang Tong was a very sensitive person. From Meng Fanchao's attitude, he saw that this matter might be related to him. He used the excuse of giving Meng Fanchao a ride and followed closely behind him.

Meng Fanchao sighed, looked around, and said in a deep voice: "Is there a more private place? It's not convenient to talk about it here."

Wang Tong quickly ordered his men to open a separate room in the hotel. After Meng Fanchao entered the room, he remained silent. Wang Tong didn't know why, so he was naturally a little anxious.

After a long time, Meng Fanchao said in a deep voice: "The city has arranged people to check on me."

"Huh?" Wang Tong finally realized the seriousness of the situation and asked in confusion, "Who is so bold as to cause trouble in Dongtai?"

Wang Tong was quite arrogant, and he regarded himself as the local emperor of Dongtai. However, he did have the confidence. In Dongtai, the emperor in public was Qian Dechen, but in the underground world, everyone knew his name, Wang Tong. Previously, many people wanted to investigate the power of Qian Dechen, Meng Fanchao, and Wang Tong, but they were all cleverly resolved. The key figure among them was Wang Tong, who always did whatever it took.

Meng Fanchao has always behaved calmly, but today he looked different, which made Wang Tong feel very strange. Meng Fanchao was called Meng Yanwang by the Dongtai officials, and he was a signboard of the political and legal system. What could be difficult for him and make him behave so panicked

Meng Fanchao tried his best to control his complicated emotions and said in a deep voice, "This time the enemy is not a nobody. Zhong Yang from the city criminal police detachment came to Yinzhou in person. He is a young police officer with rich experience in handling cases. Moreover, the source of the information is very secretive. It is obvious that there is a big shot in the city who wants to conduct a secret investigation. Once the evidence is solid, he will catch us off guard."

Wang Tong's attitude quickly changed, and a fierce look appeared on his face. He no longer looked like the Confucian businessman he had pretended to be. He gritted his teeth and said, "No matter who it is, if they want to touch Secretary Meng in Dongtai, they must first ask me, Old Wang, for permission."
