For Ye Jingyi, the investnt from The Four Seas might have had unclear reasons, but it indeed rescued her company.
Therefore, she absolutely couldn’t let everything be ruined by Jiang Chen.
"Co with !" Ye Jingyi, with a cold expression, yanked Jiang Chen and got up to apologetically greet Wang Hui, Lin Wan, and the others before walking toward the bar’s entrance with a dark expression.
Jiang Chen had no choice but to stand up and follow her.
Wang Hui and the other person wanted to see them out, but Jiang Chen stopped them.
"Jiang Chen, what’s going on?" Once they were in the car, Ye Jingyi glared angrily at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen, looking clueless, scratched his head: "What did I do?"
Thinking Jiang Chen was still pretending, Ye Jingyi exploded with rage, glaring at him and shouting, "What did you do! I’m going to be killed by you! How could you do this? I know you’re trying to help , but you can’t just deceive people to do it! Now look what happened, you’ve deceived The Four Seas, and the family is questioning . What exactly are you trying to accomplish?"
Jiang Chen smiled: "I didn’t deceive anyone; I really have a secret recipe."
In Jiang Chen’s dreamlike mories, there were miraculous ancient dical techniques—casually taking out any prescription and modifying it would suffice to beco a top beauty secret in the present society.
Ye Jingyi was so angry that she raised her fist, nearly ready to hit soone: "You’re still talking nonsense!"
"Jing Yi, when will you actually trust ?" Jiang Chen shook his head with a sigh, then extended his hand: "Do you have paper and a pen?"
"What for?" Ye Jingyi was taken aback.
"I’m going to write down the secret recipe for you," Jiang Chen said with a wry smile.
Ye Jingyi, unconvinced, rummaged through her bag and found only an eyebrow pencil and a napkin.
Jiang Chen took the ’pen and paper,’ and with the eyebrow pencil, he wrote a recipe on the napkin.
"Your family started with dicine, so there must be so pros. Take this back to your family’s dical experts, let them see if it’s real," Jiang Chen handed the recipe to Ye Jingyi, and then advised, "I left out one main ingredient in the recipe; keep that to use as leverage."
Ye Jingyi took the recipe and glanced at it; indeed, there were so dical materials listed, but she didn’t understand it either. She hesitated for a long ti, also not daring to believe it was real.
However, considering the current situation, it seed she had no choice but to hope for the best from a desperate situation.
Suddenly, Ye Jingyi’s phone rang. She took it out and frowned slightly: "Hello, Uncle."
"Co to the family eting tomorrow!"
Ye Jianchang hung up after dropping that one line.
Ye Jingyi looked at the phone emitting a busy tone, her brows furrowing into a ’川’ shape.
"Don’t worry, once you take the recipe there, all problems will be solved!" Jiang Chen patted Ye Jingyi’s shoulder.
Ye Jingyi glanced at Jiang Chen and nodded helplessly; now she could only trust in Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen knew Ye Jingyi was still sowhat distrustful, but he didn’t say anything more. He couldn’t explain this matter; after tomorrow, the results would naturally reveal themselves.
...
Early the next day, at Ye Jianchang’s villa in Jinhai, all the main decision-makers of the Jinhai Ye family gathered there.
In the grand living room, Ye Jianchang sat at the head, with the Ye family’s key figures sitting on both sides. Ye Jingyi was seated only in the corner at the very end.
"Today, I have called everyone together primarily for one issue."
Once everyone had arrived, Ye Jianchang spoke with a cold deanor: "Ye Jingyi, as a mber of the Ye family, you have been utterly irresponsible toward the family, ignoring the family’s interests, marrying on your own accord, and even deceiving the family. Do you still see yourself as part of the family? Now in front of everyone, you must give an account to the family. Tell us, why did The Four Seas invest in your company!"
"Yes, Jing Yi, why would The Four Seas invest in your company?"
"Exactly, why doesn’t The Four Seas invest in our company instead? Your company is so small and yet you managed to get investnt; are you hiding sothing?"
"Ye Jingyi, you are a mber of the Ye Family. You can’t just look out for yourself and ignore the family. Doing this is a disgrace to our ancestors."
The mbers of the Ye Family all spoke up to criticize Ye Jingyi, so eyes even flashing with jealousy: they had many who wanted investnt from The Four Seas but had failed to secure it!
Ye Jingyi took a deep breath, trembling as she took out a napkin from her bag: "The Four Seas invested in Liying Costics because of this beauty recipe."
"A recipe?"
"What beauty recipe?"
The mbers of the Ye Family were stunned, turning their eyes toward what Ye Jingyi held in her hands.
"Co on, Ye Jingyi, are you joking with us? Isn’t that just a napkin?"
"Exactly, Ye Jingyi, you’ve gone too far! This is a family assembly, do you dare to talk nonsense here? Do you not want to stay in the family anymore?"
"Look, the words on this napkin are even written with an eyebrow pencil, Ye Jingyi; did you just doodle so nonsense when you had nothing better to do?"
As the mbers of the Ye Family could see what Ye Jingyi was holding, they all laughed and mocked her.
"No, it really is a recipe!" Ye Jingyi argued with a flushed face and ears, praying in her heart that what Jiang Chen wrote was indeed a real recipe, otherwise she was truly dood!
One of the Ye Family elders sitting on the left hand side of Ye Jianchang squinted at the napkin and said indifferently, "Since you claim it’s a recipe, then bring it here and let have a look."
Ye Shen, Ye Jianchang’s uncle, had profound knowledge in ancient dicine, once served as the Divine Doctor in Jinhai, but later retired to focus solely on the Ye Family’s pharmaceutical company, with many of the drugs and costics research being led by him.
"Right, let uncle have a look. He’s an expert in this area and will surely be able to tell real from fake."
"Uncle, please take a good look, don’t let Ye Jingyi fool us!"
"Hmph, if she dares to deceive us, we will oust her from the family!"
The mbers of the Ye Family all spoke out, no one believing the recipe Ye Jingyi held was real: so were already planning on taking over Liying Costics once Ye Jingyi was expelled from the family, as there was investnt from The Four Seas involved. Using Liying Costics to establish a connection with The Four Seas could lead to a huge profit!
Ye Jingyi swallowed nervously, her heart uneasy as she approached Ye Shen with the recipe, handing it over: "Uncle, here."
Ye Shen casually took the recipe and glanced at it, then his eyes lit up, and he sat up straight, reading the recipe word by word.
"Uncle, is the recipe fake?"
"Yes, Uncle, that just has to be sothing Ye Jingyi scribbled, right?"
The Ye Family mbers stared intently at Ye Shen, ready to claim Liying Costics for themselves.
Ye Jianchang glanced at Ye Jingyi and then at Ye Shen, feeling puzzled. He knew his uncle’s disposition well. By the looks of it, this recipe might be more interesting than expected.
"Haha! Hahaha..."
Ye Shen suddenly broke into laughter: "Good... good! Heaven’s blessings on our Jinhai Ye Family, this is truly manna from the heavens! Our Jinhai Ye Family is going to thrive, we’re going to make it!"
All the mbers of the Ye Family were stunned, and Ye Jianchang’s body shook as he urgently asked, "Uncle, is the recipe real?"
"It’s real, and not just real, but this is the formula for ’Yunshang Yulu Gao,’ a recipe that has been lost for hundreds of years. I can’t believe it... I can’t believe it’s appeared in our Jinhai Ye Family. Jian Chang, our Jinhai Ye Family is going to thrive. We won’t be looked down upon by Jincheng anymore! Hahaha..."
Ye Shen couldn’t stop laughing, tears streaming down his face.
