Chapter 80: Fried Rice with Eggs

1 a.m., 10th floor of the Hilton Hotel, Hamilton, bathroom.
Ye Feng took off his ring, opened the door to the men’s bathroom, and leaned against the sink, arms crossed, waiting.
Soon, Long Tian and Kelly came out of the bathroom.
“Should we rest here?” Kelly asked Ye Feng, still nervous.
“No. I didn’t book a room here. Although we disguised ourselves and booked several rooms at seven different five-star hotels for three days each, it’s just to throw off suspicion!” Ye Feng smiled. “What we’re going to is an abandoned warehouse in the southwest corner of this city. We’ll wait here for a day. Since you disappeared, he’ll surely have men near the airport by tomorrow. The day after that, the three of us will take different masks and board three separate flights to Switzerland, Germany, and Spain. After that, we’ll meet on the Champs-Élysées in France, stay there for a while to gather information, and then decide whether to return to China.”
“Why go through all this trouble? Haven’t we already escaped?” Kelly asked, puzzled.
“No, we haven’t escaped yet. That guy has too many spies—too many to keep track of! Also, don’t use your credit cards during this time; they can trace them! I asked Yi Ge to open an anonymous account at a Swiss bank. There are several credit cards under it—use mine.” Ye Feng handed one credit card to Long Tian and another to Kelly. “Also, throw away your communication devices and change all your clothes!”
As he spoke, he handed them two brand-new iPhone 4s.
“I bought these from a special place; there won’t be any problems. Now, go into the bathroom and change your clothes, including your underwear! Throw your old phones down the toilet!” Ye Feng shoved two black boxes into their hands.
“Okay, do you know her size?” Long Tian teased. Hearing this, Kelly’s cheeks turned red instantly.
“Hurry up!” Ye Feng glared at him sharply.
“Oh, by the way, thanks for the underwear!” Before entering the bathroom, Long Tian turned around and winked at Ye Feng.
Ye Feng put on his glasses and checked for any unusual activity nearby. After finding nothing suspicious, he entered the virtual realm, changed into new clothes, and came back out.

After a short while, Long Tian came out of the bathroom wearing a formal black suit, examining himself carefully in the mirror. “Hmm, it fits perfectly and looks very stylish! Truly my style!”
Ye Feng pretended not to hear, somewhat speechless.
“Where… did you change into that?” Long Tian then noticed that Ye Feng had also changed into new clothes.
“Secret!” Ye Feng spread his hands, indicating he couldn’t reveal it.
At that moment, Kelly also came out of the bathroom. She was wearing a tight black leather jacket that accentuated her perfect figure even more.
Both Long Tian and Ye Feng were momentarily stunned.
“Is there something on my face?” Kelly asked, looking at them curiously before stepping closer to the mirror to check.
“Nothing. Let’s go outside!” Ye Feng shook his head and smiled mysteriously. “Later, I’ll perform a magic trick for you in a secluded place without any cameras!”
“A magic trick? I’ve known you for so long—why have I never seen you do one?” Long Tian doubted Ye Feng.
“You’ll see it then. Come with me!” Ye Feng said as he headed toward the elevator.
The three got off the elevator and strode out of the hotel. Ye Feng led them to a small path nearby.
“Keep your eyes open.” Ye Feng checked and saw that there were no traffic cameras in the area.
“I don’t see anything!” Long Tian teased.
“Three, two, one!” Ye Feng snapped his fingers, and a brand-new BMW suddenly appeared in front of them.
“Uh, this is… a BMW 7 Series Steinway limited edition…” Long Tian was shocked. “It’s a masterpiece created jointly by BMW and the world-famous piano brand Steinway.”
“The perfect hand-painted finish…” Long Tian gently stroked the car’s surface. “Only two are produced worldwide each week…”
“Want to drive it?” Ye Feng shook the car keys in his hand.
“Are you serious?” Long Tian was excited, staring intently at the keys in Ye Feng’s hand.
“Take it!” Ye Feng threw the keys to Long Tian, then went over to Kelly and whispered to her, “It seems this car is more attractive to you!”
“Women and cars—their ‘freshness’ lasts different lengths of time!” Kelly winked at Ye Feng.
“Fair point!” Ye Feng narrowed his eyes slightly. Seeing Long Tian start the engine, he walked over, opened the back door, and gestured politely, “Madam, after you!”
Kelly happily got into the car, followed by Ye Feng, who then closed the door.

“Do you remember how to get to that warehouse?” Ye Feng asked Long Tian Dao, who was sitting in front of him.
“Of course I do!” Long Tian was like a little boy who had just gotten a new toy, afraid that someone else would take it away. This was the first time Ye Feng realized that Long Tian could be so easily handled!
The luxury car, worth nearly 3.2 million RMB, quickly left the dimly lit path and headed into the distance.
A seemingly abandoned warehouse was actually as tidy as new inside.
There was a wooden round table and three wooden chairs. Dim light came from several candles on the table, flickering from time to time.
There was only half of a bottle of Bordeaux wine from 2000 left. The red liquid in the transparent goblets in the three people’s hands emitted a strong aroma of wine.
“Bordeaux from 2000? I feel like I’m dreaming!” Long Tian gently swirled his glass, staring at the pure red color, reluctant to take a sip.
“I don’t know much about this kind of thing either. I just picked the most expensive one. The 2003 version is also exorbitantly priced, but I think the 2000 version, being three years older, might be better.” Ye Feng took a small sip.
“Things produced by world-class wineries are already luxury items, even those from 2010.” Long Tian smiled satisfactorily. “Now I think you’re almost omnipotent!”
“Do you want to eat something?” Ye Feng looked at the two of them.
“I don’t need anything. I want to savor the wine properly.” Long Tian shook his head. “Miss Kelly must be hungry. You guys go ahead and eat!”
“How about some steak?” Ye Feng asked with a smile.
“I want fried rice with eggs!” Kelly made a strange request, leaving Long Tian speechless for a moment.
Ye Feng also looked at her in disbelief. “Fried rice with eggs?”
“Actually, I liked it when I was in China last time. But I haven’t had it in a long time… So…” Kelly said shyly.
“No problem. Then I’ll have fried rice with eggs too!” Ye Feng pouted and conjured up two plates of fried rice with eggs, handing one to Kelly.
“You two wastrels! The rest of the wine is mine!” Long Tian snatched the half bottle of wine left on the table, moved a stool aside, and started enjoying it on his own.
