Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City

After a night of warmth, Shen Yuexin temporarily went to the company in Imperial Capital first; she took care of everything and then started shopping with Ye Ling, purchasing essentials at the mall.

Inside the Imperial Capital mall, Shen Yuexin and Ye Ling wandered around, looking to buy some clothes since they were going abroad and needed a few changes of attire.

"Wife! I can buy my own clothes, okay? Shopping is so tiring," Ye Ling protested. Accompanying a woman while shopping was the most exhausting task ever.

Ye Ling, the esteemed cultivator of the seven Golden Cores, was unafraid of Dragon Slaying, but just half an hour of shopping had already started to wear him out, with his legs beginning to feel sore.

"Shopping destroys cultivation," Ye Ling muttered, his mouth puckering, while Yue Xin by his side just slightly smiled.

The most critical thing was that after more than half an hour with Shen Yuexin, she had already bought over ten bags of items. Ye Ling's hands were full of large and small packages.

However, Ye Ling hadn't bought even a pair of socks. Yue Xin's idea was to finish buying her stuff first, then pick something nice for Ye Ling, emphasizing quality after all.

As for this, Ye Ling didn't actually believe it at all. He suspected that when it came time to shop for him, it would be nothing more than a few random items. The talk of prioritizing quality and value was definitely not happening.

As they browsed, suddenly a pretty young woman approached them from the other way. While her face showed delicate beauty, there was a trace of unapproachable cold arrogance.

By the woman's side was a slightly overweight middle-aged man with a large beer belly, a string of jade Buddha Beads hanging around his neck.

"Oh, isn't that Ye Ling? What brings you to Imperial Capital?" the woman exclaimed with a surprised smile upon seeing Ye Ling.

Ye Ling was taken aback, and instantly memories flooded his brain. This woman was his classmate from junior high, a former school beauty whom he had once pursued but who had rejected him.

"Hmm, I didn't expect to run into you here, Xiao Mei," Ye Ling replied with a slight smile.

Xiao Mei, noticing Yue Xin beside Ye Ling, had a glint in her eye and immediately sneered, "Tsk tsk, I heard you aren't mixing too well these days, so how did you find such a beautiful girlfriend?"

"She's not your sugar mommy, is she? Haha," Xiao Mei mocked, covering her mouth with her hand.

Shen Yuexin's face darkened instantly, just about to speak, when Xiao Mei quickly gestured with her hand, "Sorry, you know me, I always speak my mind. Please don't mind it."

"No worries. The person by your side, is he your father?" Ye Ling asked, also with a slight smile.

Xiao Mei's face turned dark immediately, and the chubby man beside her also turned blue instantly. Damn it, what the hell kind of look was that? Did he really look anything like her father?

"What are you looking at? This is my darling!" Xiao Mei said in a coquettish voice, then hugged the chubby man's arm even tighter.

Ye Ling's eyes widened in disbelief, "Xiao Mei! Do you by chance lack fatherly love?"

Shen Yuexin burst into laughter immediately, then hastily waved her hand in apology, "Sorry, couldn't help it, my apologies."

The man, whom Ye Ling labelled 'fatherly affection,' instantly turned completely dark and said furiously, "You, have you no manners? One look at you and I can tell you're a penniless lad, living off a woman, am I right?

Lady, I think you'd be better off finding yourself a gigolo instead of supporting him. Look at him, no looks, so skinny, clearly malnourished, tsk tsk, I really wonder if he can satisfy you."

Fatherly Affection didn't hold back either and launched a direct counterattack, as Xiao Mei proudly raised her head beside him.

Hearing this, Shen Yuexin was not in a hurry and just laughed softly, "Men, you only know once you've tried. I think he's quite good. But the woman by your side, she doesn't seem to be any good catch."

"Who knows how many hands that second-rate junk has passed through. You better watch your image, or what if someday a beggar pops up claiming you stole his ex-girlfriend? Wouldn't you look foolish?"

Shen Yuexin's words were also incredibly sharp, and Xiao Mei immediately got upset, gritting her teeth: "You shameless hussie, supporting a man, sharp-tongued and shrewd, you really do resemble a vixen."

As soon as the words were out, Shen Yuexin raised her hand and slapped Xiao Mei's face, leaving five bright red finger marks on it.

"You! You actually dared to hit me!" Xiao Mei, covering her face, said in disbelief. She couldn't believe this woman had the audacity to hit her.

Xiao Mei's chubby friend was about to strike, but Ye Ling stood in front of him with a slight smile.

"I think it's best not to get involved in women's affairs, don't you agree? It would be quite shameful for a grown man to hit a woman, and I believe there would be consequences, right?"

The chubby man, looking at Ye Ling in front of him with a cold laugh, suddenly felt a chill all over his body, as though he were being watched by a bloodthirsty beast.

"You! You just wait!" After saying this, the chubby man tried to take out his phone to make a call, but just then, his eyes lit up when he saw a well-dressed couple approaching their way.

The chubby man stopped bothering Ye Ling and Shen Yuexin and hurried over to the couple, his face full of flattering eagerness.

"President Li, what brings you and your wife out today? To run into you here is such a coincidence."

The chubby man reached out with both hands to eagerly shake President Li's hand, his face beaming with excitement.

This President Li was a famous tycoon in Imperial Capital, with assets approaching ten billion. The chubby man's current comfortable lifestyle depended on picking up small jobs from President Li's company.

President Li, seeing the chubby man, also smiled: "Ah, what a coincidence to bump into you here. Who did you come with?"

The chubby man quickly pointed to Xiao Mei standing beside Ye Ling. President Li, seeing the group, immediately put on a smile and walked briskly toward Xiao Mei.

"What's this? President Li takes a fancy to Xiao Mei? Fine! If he's interested, I know exactly what to do now!"

The chubby man firmly decided in his heart and quickly followed.

President Li and his wife, both smiling, came right up to Xiao Mei, reaching out with both hands: "It's so coincidental to find President Shen here too, it's been such a long time since we last met."

"You are?" Shen Yuexin looked at President Li, feeling he looked somewhat familiar but couldn't quite place him. She had met too many billionaires to remember each one clearly.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

President Li wasn't embarrassed: "Such a busy person as President Shen naturally wouldn't remember me, a nobody. I am Li Chao from Ding Sheng Company, this is my wife, and we've met at so-and-so's banquet. Do you remember now?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuexin nodded slightly and smiled, extending her hand to shake with both of them.

"What brings President Shen here? Surely you're not involved with this chubby fellow? I haven't heard him mention it," President Li said with a laugh.

The chubby man immediately felt like a complete fool; he had kicked an iron plate this time!

The chubby man begged Shen Yuexin with his eyes, pleading silently, not to say anything, or else he would be ruined.

"I would've liked to form a connection, but unfortunately, they found my man too poor and called me cheap. How could I, Shen Yuexin, possibly aspire to such heights?" Shen Yuexin said with a cold laugh.

Hearing the name Shen Yuexin, the chubby man's legs went weak, and he nearly collapsed to the ground.
