Chapter 2011
Unfortunately, the surprise only lasted for a moment because Zhang Xiaoyu got angry soon after.
She exited the car in a pair of high heels that were as high as fifteen centimeters. Then she walked right to Ye Fan and glared in displeasure. “How shameless are you? I can't believe you stalked me. Haven't I made things clear? A woman like me will never fall for a piece of trash like you. I'm warning you. If you keep badgering me like this, I will forgo being civil and ignore the fact that we are from the same country. Instead, I will beat you up!”
Zhang Xiaoyu shouted furiously and threw endless insults at Ye Fan.
The latter didn't say anything. All he did was stare strangely at the former.
The expression he wore... It was as though he was looking at an idiot.
He turned around and left immediately after.
Ye Fan's behavior undoubtedly pissed Zhang Xiaoyu off.
She reached out and stopped him from leaving. After that, she roared, “Get your butt back here... Are you freaking deaf? I am talking to you! Also, what is with that attitude of yours? I am not happy with it, and I demand an apology.”
It was clear that Zhang Xiaoyu was really spoilt.
Ye Fan's distaste and expression made her uncomfortable, and she wanted him to apologize for it.
Ye Fan was so angry that, for some reason, he ended up laughing aloud.
Zhang Jiuling is such an honorable and intelligent man, so how did he end up with an... insufferable granddaughter like this?
“What's wrong, Xiaoyu? Is he bothering you?”
Prince Duo Li showed up from behind Zhang Xiaoyu. When he saw how angry his date was, he immediately became concerned.
Zhang Xiaoyu changed her unreasonable stance and complained to Duo Li in a sweet but troubled tone, “Princey, he is the problem. He is just too much. I've already made it clear that I am not interested in him, but he keeps badgering me. That is so annoying.” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Zhang Xiaoyu stomped her feet and sounded frustrated.
Prince Duo Li cooed, “It's okay. It's just a simple matter, and I can solve the problem for you.”
After saying all that calmly, he stood up and scanned Ye Fan from head to toe before scoffing in distaste.
“Hey, punk! I had you on my radar ever since I saw you going after Xiaoyu at the entrance of the hotel. I didn't think that you'd actually stalk her all the way here. Do you honestly think that you can bully someone while being at the entrance of the palace? Kneel before her right away and apologize. If you don't, I'll make you wish you were never born!” threatened Duo Li mercilessly.
Ye Fan chuckled and shook his head. “You want me to apologize to her? Hah! Do you really think you have the power to do so?”
“Imbecile!” roared Zhang Xiaoyu. She was instantly infuriated. “Prince Duo Li is the President of India's nephew. He is a member of the royal family, and a pauper like you has no right to talk back at him. You better slap yourself right now to apologize for your insolence, or you will be dead!”
Zhang Xiaoyu pointed the finger at Ye Fan and reprimanded the latter endlessly.
Ye Fan, however, wasn't bothered at all. “He's a member of the royal family, but so what? To me, that means nothing.”
His smile remained as calm as ever.
“That's gutsy. It's interesting because only a handful of people have the guts to look down on members of the royal family.”
Just then, a series of harsh laughter came from the other side.
All anyone saw was a man in luxurious clothes making his way over as a few women circled around him.
“My dear brother, I'm glad you're here.”
Prince Duo Li greeted the guy as soon as he saw him approaching.
Zhang Xiaoyu was taken aback.
Duo Li referred to him as his big brother... Does that mean... he's the future duke?
Zhang Xiaoyu immediately became excited.
At the end of the day, Duo Li was just the youngest son, and only the eldest son could inherit the dukedom in India.
In other words, Duo Li's brother was much more powerful than him.
Zhang Xiaoyu was excited and nervous, but she quickly stepped forward to introduce herself.
She had just started her career in the entertainment industry and would need influential investors to help her if she wanted to be famous.
Zhang Xiaoyu didn't just get close to members of the royal family because she wanted to marry into the family. She also did that to get them to invest in herself and make her famous.
Duo Li's brother simply nodded at Zhang Xiaoyu when she greeted him. He turned his attention to Ye Fan soon after. “My brother demanded that you apologize, but you claim that he is not powerful enough to pressure you into doing so. Well, what if I were to make the same demand? Is that good enough for you?” Duo Li's brother sneered. His tone was brimming with the arrogance of a bully.
“You stupid punk. The prince has already issued his orders, so get on your knees right now.” The previous commotion had attracted the attention of quite a few people.
Hence, a crowd gathered, and everyone demanded that Ye Fan kneel and apologize when they saw Duo Li and his brother there.
Similarly, Zhang Xiaoyu wanted Ye Fan to apologize.
Duo Li's brother didn't care about much, though.
As far as he was concerned, Ye Fan was just a nameless pauper.
The former assumed that a single order from him would scare Ye Fan silly.
However, Ye Fan's response infuriated the guy so much that he almost fainted.
“Sorry, but you mean nothing to me, too.”
“You...” He was so angry that he clenched his fists.
“And what if I were the one who issued that command?”
Yet another voice brimming with arrogance rang out.
Everyone turned their attention to the source of that voice.
All they saw was the crowd parting in half.
A man, who was worshiped by everyone, made his way to Ye Fan and the others.
“Is that...”
“Prince Savanth?”
“Isn't he the king's eldest son?”
“Oh my gosh, what is with today?”
“Why have the princes gathered?”
“Is the king throwing a party or something?”
The crowd instantly parted when they saw the crown prince.
Many onlookers gasped in astonishment.
They were curious. Why have so many members of the royal family gathered here today?
“Pfft, you really are nothing but a bunch of hooligans. How do you not know that today is the day a VIP of the country will be visiting?”
Zhang Xiaoyu felt superior when she heard the crowd discussing the matter, and she couldn't help sneering at them.
She had already heard from Prince Duo Li that the king would be throwing a party to welcome a powerful individual.
Rumor had it that the king would even grant said individual an important title.
Given the importance of that exclusive event, even a billionaire would not be privy to any insights or invitations.
Hence, it was only natural that regular citizens were not aware of it.
“Punk, the crown prince is here, and you are in a heap of trouble. Hah, I'd like to see what you'll do now.”
Prince Duo Li grinned evilly and dissed Ye Fan a little before he went to his brother's side so that they could welcome the crown prince together.
Ye Fan wasn't worried at all, though.
He kept his hands in his pockets and was relaxed as he stood there.
As he stared at the royalties standing before him, he grinned and replied, “Sorry, I'm still unbothered.”
What the f*ck? Go to hell.
The crowd was practically going insane when they heard what Ye Fan said.
Many minds were blown at that moment.
Holy moly, this guy is a little too much, isn't he? First, he dissed Prince Duo Li, then he disregarded the duke's eldest son, and now he has disrespected the crown prince! What the hell is he thinking? Is he courting death or something?
“You stupid punk. I bet you're actually seeking death, huh?”
“I can't believe you offended a member of the royal family!”
“Guards, break his legs and throw him in to Grange River.”
Duo Li was so angry that he issued the order.
The commotion right outside the palace was getting a little out of hand, so someone exited the palace and made his way over.
“What is going on? Why is there such a ruckus? The party is about to begin, and our VIP is about to show up. You lot are late, so why aren't you making up for time lost by hurrying up?”
A middle-aged man had shown up and was scolding Duo Li and the others in displeasure.
“Understood, Father,” replied Duo Li and his brother simultaneously while having their heads down.
Prince Savanth didn't retort, either.
The customs at the time dictated that since they were still from the younger generation, so they had to obey the words of those from the previous generation.
“Hmph, you got lucky today, you idiot. I will deal with you after the party.”
Duo Li and the others glared at Ye Fan before making their way into the palace.
After the princes left, the spectators dispersed as well.
Ye Fan straightened his clothes a bit before making his way toward the party as well.
“Hey, beggars are not allowed here. Get out!” shouted the bodyguards.
They were lucky that Noa showed up at that exact moment. If she hadn't, Ye Fan might've left in a fit of anger, and that party would've ended before it even began. It was likely that the leaders of India would be utterly infuriated by that.
“Ye Fan, you're finally here. Hurry, everybody's waiting for you. Let's head in together.”
Noa, in her elegant outfit, walked out of the palace to welcome Ye Fan.
With the bodyguards still staring in astonishment, the head of the prominent Vias family, who is also the princess of India, hugged Ye Fan's arm and walked right past them.
