But even though he only mentioned a nearby place, it still startled the middle-aged driver, and he stared at him blankly.
Ye Fei touched his own face and said with a smile, "Uncle, what’s the matter? Is there a flower on my face?"
The driver realized that he had lost his composure. He gave an awkward smile and said, "Sorry, little brother. I was distracted. By the way, you’re going to Time Square. Do you live there?"
"Yes, I live nearby." Ye Fei replied. He was currently living in the Ye family’s courtyard, so it wasn’t exactly a lie.
The driver suddenly got excited. He looked at Ye Fei and asked, "Then do you know Ye Fei?"
"No, I don’t." Ye Fei shook his head and said.
The driver showed a disappointed look, started the car, and stopped talking to Ye Fei.
But Ye Fei wanted to learn about the ordinary citizens’ views on himself and the Ye family from him, so he continued, "Uncle, do you have something to do with Ye Fei?"
"No, no. I just want to know more about him." The driver shook his head as he drove, and his face showed an animated expression again. He continued, "I heard he’s about your age, but he managed to deal with that Ye Yu. You can see how powerful he is. I really hope that under his leadership, the Ye family can become like before, so that we ordinary people can live in peace."
Ye Fei couldn’t help but feel secretly happy. It seemed that the Ye family had quite a good reputation among ordinary people. Despite all the bad things Ye Yu had done, people hadn’t completely lost hope in the Ye family. It seemed that he should pay more attention to this aspect in the future. At all times, the will of the people was very important. This was not only useful in war and fighting for power but also couldn’t be ignored in times of peace. Unfortunately, those who had already reached the top had overlooked this point.
"Is he really the same age as me?" Ye Fei thought about his own matters and casually responded to the driver.
The driver quickly nodded and said, "Yes. Maybe he’s even younger than you. I heard he’s only sixteen. Hehe, when I was sixteen, I was just a kid who only knew how to play. I really hope to meet him in person."
Ye Fei secretly laughed. He didn’t expect that this middle-aged driver still had the heart of a fan. He also echoed, "Yes, I’m also sixteen. I usually only know how to play. It seems I should work hard from now on."
Hearing Ye Fei say this, the driver seemed to have found a kindred spirit and immediately started chatting with Ye Fei non-stop.As the largest city in the south, there was naturally a long distance from the southern district to the city center.

Ye Fei originally thought this journey would be boring, but he didn’t expect that this driver uncle had quite a good eloquence. He didn’t stop talking during the forty-odd minutes, chatting with Ye Fei about all sorts of things from all over the place, and Ye Fei also learned a lot about ordinary people’s matters.
When getting out of the car, the driver refused to take Ye Fei’s money no matter what. In the end, he even got a bit anxious. Ye Fei, who had never taken advantage of others even for the slightest bit, had no choice but to make an exception this time.
After making sure that the enthusiastic driver uncle had disappeared from sight, Ye Fei walked out of Time Square and headed towards the Ye family’s courtyard.
Although all the newspapers and magazines now wanted to be the first to publish Ye Fei’s appearance, the Ye family’s courtyard was quite safe.
Even the most daring reporters wouldn’t dare to come here to take sneaky photos. It wasn’t because they were afraid of the Ye family’s retaliation afterwards, but out of respect for the Ye family and not wanting to disturb the Ye family’s life, so Ye Fei wasn’t worried about being photographed or anything.
"Where have you been? You’re only back now. Don’t you see what time it is? If you’re late again today, let’s see how Ling will deal with you!"
As soon as he entered the door, Ye Yunqi, who had gotten ready in the morning and had been waiting until now, started scolding Ye Fei.
Ye Fei gave a bitter smile and said, "I was delayed by something. Let’s set out right away!"
But in his heart, he was a bit happy.
Since they had the most intimate relationship, Ye Yunqi had always been extremely gentle and obedient to him. She hadn’t shown this fierce side for a long time. Now that she suddenly showed it, he felt very affectionate, as if he had returned to the past.
At the same time, he also understood that Ye Yunqi was doing this for Xu Shuyun and Ye Jing to see. Now she still didn’t dare to disclose her relationship with Ye Fei in front of her family, so she was afraid that they might notice something from her inconsistent behavior.
Ye Jing learned from Ye Yunqi that they were going to play at Lin Ling’s house today, and she also wanted to go. So she grabbed Ye Fei’s arm and said, "Brother, can you take me too?"
Ye Jing was also quite familiar with Lin Ling, and she was particularly pitiful after just losing her father. Naturally, Ye Fei didn’t want to refuse her, but he first looked at Xu Shuyun, who was sitting aside.
Xu Shuyun smiled slightly and said, "You guys go. Don’t play too late at night. You must come back before dark tomorrow because you have to go to school the day after tomorrow."
After being comforted by everyone these days, she was no longer as sad as she was at the beginning and had regained her usual gentleness and elegance.
"Got it!"
Ye Fei nodded to Xu Shuyun and set out with the two girls. Since Liu Fengyi hadn’t agreed to let Ye Fei get a driver’s license yet, the three of them had to take a taxi to Lin Ling’s house.
Lin Ling’s family also lived in the suburbs. But unlike Ye Fei’s family, they lived in the western suburbs.
After Lin Ling’s father and Ye Fei’s father died together more than ten years ago, Liu Yiru had also advised Xiao Hanyue to move in with them. Xiao Hanyue had agreed at that time, but later, due to various matters, they had never moved.
When they arrived at the front of Lin Ling’s villa, Ye Fei rang the doorbell, and the gate was quickly opened from the inside. Lin Ling had already seen through the peephole that they were coming. She flew over like a cheerful little bird, giggling, "Ye Fei, Yunqi, you’re here. Wow, Jingjing is here too?"
Ye Fei walked forward with a smile, opening his arms and waiting for Lin Ling to jump into his embrace.
But although Lin Ling didn’t avoid being affectionate with him much in front of Ye Yunqi, there was Ye Jing beside them now, and most importantly, her mother was still behind her. She was too embarrassed to let Ye Fei hold her like that. She turned her body slightly and dodged like a little rabbit.
Ye Fei didn’t mind. He gave a chuckle and looked behind her, but his eyes suddenly became a bit straight.
