Ye Fan did not go with Mengyao, as he wanted to see what strategies the pilots of the five families would employ. Only when they reveal a flaw would he step forward, so he waited alone, seemingly without purpose, but actually with a plan.
This maneuver to lure the snake out of its hole required Qiu Wen and Du Xueqi to accompany Mengyao, allowing her to probe the intentions of the five families.
Now that Qiu Wen had sent out a warning and a call for help, Ye Fan knew that the five families were likely making their move.
Eager to rush over, he unexpectedly got caught by Song Meimei.
"Let go. I don't have time to play with you. If you don't release me, don't blame me for being rude." Ye Fan said coldly.
If he struggled free, Song Meimei would definitely be in a sorry state, so for her sake, he chose not to act forcefully.
