Yue Tingfeng’s voice was exceedingly calm and completely devoid of any undulation. He was as calm as a cup of water that was left to cool. Even his expressions were calm too, and the only thing revealing his true frame of mind was the bulging green veins at the back of his hand.
Yan Qingsi!
Helan Fangnian!
The combination of those two words rang one after the other in his mind, dealing multiple blows to his mental state.
He did not even have the mood to listen to what Helan Fangnian was saying.
After regaining his composure, he asked, “What was that? The line wasn’t good just now. I couldn’t hear clearly.”
Helan Fangnian asked again. “Tingfeng, you really don’t know her?”
He was beginning to doubt it when Yue Tingfeng chuckled. “Of course I don’t. Why should I pay attention to a celebrity? Those that I know are from the front lines. Who is she anyway?”
Yue Tingfeng said everything as though it did not bother him in the slightest. Over the phone, not even the acute perception of a lawyer like Helan Fangnian could detect that Yue Tingfeng was lying to his face.
Helan Fangnian’s mind was getting more anxious. He pleaded, “Please help me find out more. Her agent’s company and…where she lives. Please.”
Yue Tingfeng was on the brink of crushing the phone using his bare hands, yet his reply was as calm as ever. “Sure, no problem…”
The next second, Yue Tingfeng asked casually, “This Yan Qingsi… Is she the one you said was love at first sight?”
He heard Helan Fangnian sigh and answered, “It’s her.”
Though they were talking over the phone, Yue Tingfeng could hear the amount of regret, longing, joy, and obsession through Helan Fangnian’s two simple words.
Yue Tingfeng narrowed his eyes. “But from the picture…she doesn’t look that special, right? She’s just an ordinary girl who happens to look good.”
“No, you don’t understand her. If you… Never mind. Tingfeng, please help me with this. I’ll owe you a favor for this. If you help me with this, I’ll do anything for you next time. Just say the word.”
Yue Tingfeng’s hand was grabbing so tightly on the phone that some cracking noises could be heard. “Sure, not a problem.”
Helan Fangnian asked, “Why is there noise from your phone?”
“Oh, the line’s not that good. And yes, I just read online that the woman slept around, exchanged sex for favors, had abortions, and became a mistress. She doesn’t seem to have a good reputation. Is someone like her really worth not getting over?”
Yue Tingfeng did not expect Helan Fangnian to answer without any hesitation, “It’s not like that. I trust her. It’s clear that the slander against her is the work of cyber troopers. I know she wouldn’t do that kind of thing. Even if she did do it, I believe that she was forced to do it and had no other choice… You don’t know her at all…”
Yue Tingfeng had a convoluted expression. A raging inferno was burning in his eyes and he chuckled coldly in his heart. ‘Heh, I don’t know her? Yan Qingsi? Is my knowledge of her incomparable to Helan Fangnian’s?’
“You’re really…obsessed.” There was a slight change in Yue Tingfeng’s voice.
If Helan Fangnian was with Yue Tingfeng, he would be able to see the latter’s expression and realize that Yue Tingfeng was as infuriated as he could be.
Helan Fangnian said slowly, “She might be the only person that I’ll ever truly love in my entire life. Tingfeng…I don’t think you can ever understand how that feels.”
Yue Tingfeng kept quiet for a few seconds.
“You’re right, I don’t understand it. I guess that’s that then. We’ll talk about it again later.”
“Okay. Please help me. You have to help me find her.”
“Mm…”
