Chapter 945: Chapter 986: Bumper Boats

Li Yifei had come to the province today to handle some company-related procedures. The Ye family was quite capable in this regard and quickly settled everything for him. Although Li Yifei knew people in official circles which made matters more convenient, with the Lin family in the province, the Su family in Capital City, and the future involvement of the Xiao and Zheng families, whose networks were even broader, he could fully leverage these connections which would be much easier than establishing his own.

The matters were handled smoothly, so Li Yifei found himself with some leisure time. He went back to the Ye family’s house, picked up Ye Yunzhu, and they both went out for a stroll.

Ye Yunzhu suggested, "Honey, let’s go for a walk in the park."

Li Yifei gladly agreed, and then they headed to Labor Park, the largest park in the province. The park had a nice environment with Renmin Lake, a flower exhibition, and various amusement facilities. Although it was not the weekend, there were still quite a few people around.

Yunzhu linked her arm with Li Yifei’s, walking leisurely along the wooded paths of the park, feeling extremely good.

Li Yifei smiled and said, "Yunzhu, it’s been a long time since we last strolled through a park like this."

Ye Yunzhu gently pinched Li Yifei’s arm and remarked, "You remember, huh? The last time we went to a park, we were still in high school. Now, I have even had a child for you, and you haven’t been spending quality time with me."

Li Yifei felt regretful and said, "Yunzhu, are you very angry with me?"

"Not really angry anymore. We were young at that time, just thinking about how to have fun. Now that we’re older, our desires are different. Being able to go out like this occasionally feels quite romantic. Besides, even if I do get angry with you now, what good would it do?"

Li Yifei laughed dryly. This was his weak spot; having many women meant that many normal activities for couples were considered a luxury for him and his women.

"Let’s go boating," they suggested when they reached the artificial lake, as Yunzhu looked excitedly at the boats.

Naturally, Li Yifei couldn’t refuse. They bought tickets and boarded a small boat. It was a normal boat operated with paddles and not a pedal boat. Rowing a boat on the lake had a certain charm, while pedal boats were less exciting.

Li Yifei and Ye Yunzhu sat facing each other. Li Yifei gently waved the paddle, and the boat immediately moved away from the shore toward the center of the lake. Ye Yunzhu leaned over to put her hand in the cool lake water, occasionally flashing charming smiles at Li Yifei. It felt like they were back in their teenage years, an indescribably sweet moment.

While Li Yifei and Ye Yunzhu were enjoying a tender and romantic time, people on several nearby boats were staring at them with venomous glares in their eyes.

Among them were Lin Sihao and Song Ziqiao. Lin Sihao was previously supposed to be engaged to Ye Yunzhu. Li Yifei had interrupted that arrangement, causing Lin Sihao to deeply resent both Li Yifei and Ye Yunzhu. Song Ziqiao, formerly the Deputy County Head, had encountered conflicts with Li Yifei in Mile City. Though he was reassigned by the Song family, his career progression wasn’t as smooth at the new location, provoking hatred for Li Yifei.

Neither of the two was particularly interested in boating, but they had come to the park with a group of friends and several attractive university students, striving for some fun. Unexpectedly, they spotted Li Yifei and Ye Yunzhu, and seeing them reignited their hatred.

Lin Sihao rowed his boat close to Song Ziqiao’s and whispered, "Ziqiao, see that guy over there?"

Song Ziqiao, staring at Li Yifei, gritted his teeth and said, "Of course I see him, damn it, this bastard actually showed up here."

Lin Sihao responded bitterly, "Young Master Song, this guy has forced you to restart your career, delaying your progress for several years. Don’t you want to settle the score properly?"

"Of course, I do. But his backing is damn solid. My family’s elder already warned me not to mess with him."

"So what if his backing is solid? Do we really have to confront him head-on? If something ’accidental’ were to happen, would it have anything to do with us?"

Song Ziqiao’s eyes lit up and said, "Sihao, you’ve got a point. Let’s plan for an ’accident.’ Even if we can’t kill him, we can embarrass him."

The two huddled together, discussing their scheme, then both pulled out their phones to make some calls.

Song Ziqiao and Lin Sihao were able to see Li Yifei and bore such looks at him; there was no way Li Yifei wouldn’t notice them. If he couldn’t even detect them, he wouldn’t deserve the name ’Golden Eagle.’

However, Li Yifei did not inform Ye Yunzhu about this, seeing how happy she was, he truly didn’t want to spoil the mood. On the lake, even if Lin Sihao and Song Ziqiao were to pull some tricks, Li Yifei could handle it comfortably, so he continued to happily boat and chat with Ye Yunzhu, enjoying this rare, warm moment.

Several pedal boats leisurely approached, getting increasingly closer to Li Yifei’s boat, a typical scene on the artificial lake. However, when two pedal boats were only a few meters away, they suddenly accelerated and headed straight for Li Yifei’s boat.

Ye Yunzhu immediately felt it and cried out in alarm. If those two pedal boats really hit theirs, their small boat was most likely to capsize. Instinctively, Ye Yunzhu quickly grabbed the gunwale. The four people on those two boats had excitement gleaming in their eyes, eagerly waiting to see Li Yifei’s boat capsize.

But at that moment, Li Yifei paddled swiftly, and the almost stationary small boat shot forth like an arrow, miraculously avoiding a collision.

Though they hadn’t been hit, Ye Yunzhu was still startled. Her personality was naturally dominant, and she suddenly yelled, "What are you doing?"

A man in one of the pedal boats, with a slick tone, responded, "Beauty, you’ve got quite the temper. We were just joking around."

Another young guy from the other boat chimed in, "Beauty is so pretty, we wanted to see how you look wet, haha..."

"Yeah, yeah, if the beauty would just jump into the water, it’d be best for us all to get a look. If not, then we’ll have to knock you in."

At this point, raucous laughter echoed from all four pedal boats.

Ye Yunzhu was greatly annoyed, while Li Yifei patted her hand and said, "Yunzhu, we’re in a good mood today, let’s just play along with them."

Ye Yunzhu paused for a moment, then broke into a brilliant smile, "Okay, let’s get all those jerks from those four boats into the water as turtles."

"No problem!" Li Yifei snapped his fingers and then swung the paddle, and their small boat swiftly weaved through the gaps between the pedal boats.

"Guys, chase them! Bumper cars weren’t enough; let’s play bumper boats." The four pedal boats quickly rushed towards Li Yifei and his companions.

Normally, the pedal boats in the park should have been faster than the small boat and easier to maneuver, and the eight men on those boats were particularly robust, pedaling fiercely. They should have been faster than Li Yifei’s boat.

But with Li Yifei paddling, though not seeming fast, the small boat zipped across the water, advancing and retreating swiftly, eluding the chasing boats.

Other boats on the artificial lake, seeing the chase, quickly rowed to the shore to avoid collateral damage, and soon the lake was left for the exciting confrontation among these five boats.

"Damn, this guy is really good at rowing the boat, must be a fisherman, right?"

"Yeah, he’s handling the boat too stylishly, like performing acrobatics."

"Ah! They’re going to collide!"

"Wow, dodged it again."

The onlookers were becoming increasingly excited as they watched. They had never seen such a bumper boat game, especially with a beautiful woman in the boat, making the spectacle even more eye-catching.

Song Ziqiao and Lin Sihao’s boats had now stopped at the shore, watching the developments with some irritation. The four boats still hadn’t managed to hit Li Yifei’s boat. How could this guy be so good at rowing?

Li Yifei skillfully dodged the collisions, and Ye Yunzhu wasn’t fearful anymore but rather found the exhilaration amusing, laughing, "Honey, don’t keep dodging, they want to hit us, you should hit back."

Li Yifei chuckled and said, "Alright, let’s show you how a bunch of turtles swim." Then, he paddled straight towards where Song Ziqiao and Lin Sihao were, with the four boats hastily chasing after him like flying.

This time Li Yifei paddled directly forwards, the four boats behind also desperately followed, their speed seeming to reach the peak.

"Guys, push harder, he’s got nowhere to hide!"

The four boats, seeing that Li Yifei’s small boat was heading towards the shore, got excited and yelled out loudly, giving it their all in pursuit.

Song Ziqiao and Lin Sihao felt uneasy at that moment, as Li Yifei’s boat was clearly heading towards their own. If Li Yifei’s boat were to be hit, they’d be in trouble too. They both urgently shouted, "Go back! Go back!"

But it was too late when they realized, and with several dull crashes, the boats collided, the huge impact instantly capsizing them, throwing everyone into the lake, and turning them into drenched chickens.
