Ling Zhenfei was at a loss for words and could only let out a bitter sigh. He looked at Yang Zixuan with a puzzled and sowhat reproachful gaze, asking, "Zi Xuan, seriously, this business trip is really not suitable for you, so why did you insist on taking on this tough job?"
"Thank you, Big Brother Ling, I know. But please don't worry, I am aware of what I'm doing and nothing will happen," replied Yang Zixuan with a smile to Ling Zhenfei. She then calmly continued, "Besides, I don't want President Lin to misunderstand . You should not go with ; I can take care of myself!"
After saying this, Yang Zixuan turned around and left.
"Zi..."
Ling Zhenfei was anxious and was about to call out to her to stop her, but Yang Zixuan walked away quickly and was out of sight in the blink of an eye.
It seed that today, his good intentions had not only failed to please anyone but made him an annoying bother to both parties.
Helplessly, Ling Zhenfei could only shake his head, sigh, and take the elevator downstairs.
After everyone had vanished from the hallway, a figure erged from the shadows.
This person was none other than Du Kongting.
As he watched the closing elevator doors, Du Kongting's eyes were rapidly contracting, and he let out a series of cold snorts, "Ling Zhenfei, I know you're powerful, and I also know that I can't beat you using any other thod!
But what if you are strong? You are still human, and every human has weaknesses, desires, and cannot escape the entanglents of emotion. Sentintality is your weakness. As long as I firmly grab hold of your weakness and make you sink into the complexities of multiple emotions, I have no worry of not being able to play you out!"
Having said those words in a sinister tone, Du Kongting's eyes flashed with a strange smile as he turned and left.
Du Kongting thought he had a foolproof plan, but little did he expect, shortly after he disappeared, the closed elevator doors slowly opened again.
As soon as the elevator doors opened, Ling Zhenfei's cold face was revealed. He had used the "Perspective Eye" to spot Du Kongting spying from the shadows earlier. He had pretended to enter the elevator, closed the doors, but had not pressed a button for any floor.
Du Kongting, in his conceit, had failed to notice this detail, and every word he spoke had been heard by Ling Zhenfei without missing a single one.
It seed that Ling Zhenfei's suspicions were indeed correct; Lin Yuluo had been instigated by Du Kongting all along, which explained her significant prejudice against Yang Zixuan. However, thanks to Du Kongting's recent gloating, Ling Zhenfei felt reassured about Yang Zixuan's safety.
Since Du Kongting's plan involved sowing discord between him and the two won, he certainly wouldn't resort to harming Yang Zixuan in secret.
This ant that Yang Zixuan's business trip would not be dangerous, and there was no need for him to take the risk of upsetting Lin Yuluo by accompanying her.
However, even though Yang Zixuan's danger was eliminated, Du Kongting was still lurking in the company, plotting against him at any mont. This scourge had to be eradicated soon, or it would lead to endless trouble.
Staring in the direction where Du Kongting had vanished, Ling Zhenfei fell into deep thought...
He had to deal with the petty Du Kongting.
Considering that the old fox no longer posed a threat to Yang Zixuan, and Han Lian still wanted to use him to lure out those international drug traffickers, Ling Zhenfei had no choice but to let the old fox leap around for a few more days. He would settle both their old and new scores later.
Seeing the jealousy in Lin Yuluo's eyes, Ling Zhenfei's own eyes revealed a sense of helplessness.
Although after receiving the dical God's legacy, his career had skyrocketed and he had found great success as if he was a fish back in water. When it ca to handling emotional issues, he still felt very muddled, not knowing how to manage the relationships between the won he loved.
Of course, since ancient tis, the hurdle of love has been the toughest to conquer. Heroes struggle to cross the threshold of beauty, let alone being caught between two beauties like Lin Yuluo and Yang Zixuan. Ling Zhenfei really didn't know how to choose.
Since he couldn't make a decision for the ti being, Ling Zhenfei decided not to dwell on this problem and hurriedly left Lin's Group. For the mont, the only thing he could do was 'out of sight, out of mind'!
Ling Zhenfei was feeling depressed and was about to walk ho to clear his mind when suddenly he received a call from Fatty.
"Hello, boss, do you have ti right now? I've pretty much sorted out the ornantal fish breeding base. That little Japanese guy, Ikeda Yasushi, also delivered all the Koi we asked for without missing a single one. I'm here with Old Qiao at the base right now, do you want to co over and take a look?"
Over the phone, Fatty's voice was tinged with excitent.
For the past few days, Ling Zhenfei had entrusted the managent of the ornantal fish breeding base entirely to him.
This Fatty was extrely dedicated to the task, neglecting even the business of his own restaurant to stay busy at the base all day long.
Now he was calling to report the good news to Ling Zhenfei.
"Alright, I'll be right there!"
Ling Zhenfei was feeling annoyed about Lin Yuluo's jealousy when he suddenly heard this good news from Fatty. Joy filled his heart, and without further ado, he rushed straight to the base.
The ornantal fish breeding base, although called a base, was actually just a slightly larger fish farm.
Moreover, the fish farm was pre-existing, with people previously breeding so high-end fish species there. Later, due to poor managent, it was acquired by Fatty at a low price.
Fatty made so slight modifications to the place, adding several large insulated glass fish tanks next to the fish farm and hooking them up with oxygen, specifically for breeding high-end ornantal fish like Koi and Golden Arowanas.
As for the fish ponds nearby, Fatty set aside so with high-quality water, for breeding so middle and low-range tropical fish, in preparation for expanding into the lower-end market later.
Although Ling Zhenfei had always been a hands-off owner, he still cared a great deal about the properties under his na.
He had visited the base a few tis during its renovation. Familiar with the route, it took him less than twenty minutes to arrive at the entrance of the base.
"Boss, you're here?"
Fatty was talking to Old Qi and, seeing Ling Zhenfei from afar, greeted him with a beaming smile.
Pointing at the newly installed large transparent fish tanks and the Koi fry just placed inside, Fatty excitedly said to Ling Zhenfei, "Boss, it looks like we really beat that little Japanese guy, Ikeda, good last ti. This ti he didn't dare to fool us at all.
The Koi fry he's supplied us with are the best, and the price is very fair; there's nothing to complain about. Look how lively these fish are, each one spirited and brimming with energy, just like Sun Wukong wreaking havoc in the Heavenly Palace."
"Psh, wreaking havoc in the Heavenly Palace? Aren't you concerned that these fish will break the tanks?"
Ling Zhenfei gave Fatty an unamused glance and laughed, "Fatty, you better take good care of these bosses; they're all very valuable. Each one is our own God of Wealth!"
"Heh heh, you're right, boss," Fatty replied.
"Then I'll leave the fish farm in your hands from now on. If there's anything you need, just let know. There are still many things to take care of at the villa now."
