"Why bring these things up?"
"You’ve helped again. If it weren’t for you, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have even been able to et Mr. Li, let alone help i Yue Company hold on until now." Luo Jingxuan sighed.
"I am now Ye Luo, a mber of the Ye Family, and even more, your nephew. There’s no need for us to be so formal with each other. However, trying to collaborate with the Li Corporation might not be so easy," Ye Luo said indifferently.
"Are you saying that Fang Rushan will obstruct us?"
"I have deep-seated enmity with the Fang Family, and Li Tiancheng must have an important deal with Fang Rushan. If Fang Rushan uses this as leverage over Li Tiancheng, I’m afraid things might not be so straightforward," Ye Luo’s eyes flickered.
"No need to worry so much. Even if we don’t collaborate with the Li Corporation, i Yue won’t suffer any losses. When those few products are launched, they will be just as popular," Luo Jingxuan said with extre confidence.
Ye Luo certainly believed what Luo Jingxuan said. The beauty products made from the formulas he had provided would surely be far more effective than any currently on the market. When released, they would undoubtedly cause a sensation.
anwhile, in a hospital room, Fang Yan hurried in and anxiously asked his father, "Father, are you all right?"
"I’m fine. Don’t worry about ," Fang Rushan shook his head.
"Who did this?"
"Ye Luo!"
"Him!"
Fang Yan’s eyes narrowed, a chilling cold flash passing through them.
"What exactly happened?" Fang Yan asked. Fang Rushan gave him a brief account of the events.
"What a coincidence. In any case, we must stop their cooperation, no matter what," Fang Yan spat coldly.
In the room where Li Tiancheng was staying, there were no others except for Li Tiancheng and two short-haired won in black.
"What do you plan to do? The purpose of your trip to Huaxia is to acquire the Fire Origin Pearl. If you fail, you know what the consequences will be when you go back," one of the won in black said coldly to Li Tiancheng.
Li Tiancheng frowned, his eyes flickering. He then said, "I know, but Fang Rushan is old and cunning. It won’t be easy to make him give up that pearl, and..."
"And you want that person to cure your kidney," the other woman in black interjected indifferently.
"Sigh..." Li Tiancheng let out a deep sigh.
"Let’s do this, we’ll sneak into the Fang Family tonight and see if we can get the Fire Origin Pearl," one of the won suddenly suggested.
"This... I’m afraid..." Li Tiancheng’s eyes showed a hint of worry.
"Don’t worry, we will be fine. A re secular family like this won’t have any Innate Experts," the woman in black sneered, her eyes showing a trace of disdain, and then the two left the room.
After parting with Luo Jingxuan, Ye Luo t Lightning Monkey and Wild Bear.
"These two are Seventh Grade Yellow Rank Body Tempering Pills. They can refine your bodies and are even more potent than the Marrow Cleansing Pills. Take them and use them; they are enough to further enhance your strength."
Ye Luo handed over two Body Tempering Pills to them.
"Thank you, Young Master!"
The Lightning Monkey and the Mad Bear’s eyes sparkled with excitent as they knelt halfway to the ground to express their gratitude.
"However, I must remind you that these two Body Tempering Pills have extrely powerful effects, and the process of tempering the body is very painful. If you cannot endure it, your ridians will be completely destroyed, and you will beco useless. So, you must think it through carefully," Ye Luo cautioned.
"Understood. Please rest assured, Young Master, we will definitely not let you down," the Lightning Monkey’s eyes flashed with a sharp light as he spoke solemnly.
Watching the Lightning Monkey and the Mad Bear depart, Ye Luo’s gaze flickered. Both of their martial arts talents were not low, and each had their own strengths. If cultivated properly, they would definitely beco experts in their own right, which would be a great help to Ye Luo at this ti.
As Ye Luo increasingly faced a wider world with ever stronger enemies, and considering the number of won around him, he had started to train people like Xue Tu and the Lightning Monkey. After all, no matter how strong he was alone, he couldn’t be in two places at once. When danger ca, it was hard to protect everyone.
Ti flowed like water, and darkness began to envelop the sky.
On the road to the Ling Family Manor, a BMW was driving with Ye Luo and Ling Qingya inside.
"Why would Grandpa suddenly think to have dinner together?" Ye Luo asked curiously. He had received a ssage from Ling Qingya after work today, saying that the old Master Ling wanted them to return to the Ling Family for dinner.
"I don’t know. Maybe he just wants to see us," Ling Qingya said indifferently.
The BMW drove into the Ling Family Manor; as soon as Ye Luo got out of the car, he saw a figure waiting there, Ling Qingya’s younger brother, Ling Xiaofeng.
"Brother-in-law, sister, you’ve arrived. Dad, mom, and grandpa are all waiting inside," Ling Xiaofeng approached Ye Luo with a warm greeting.
"What’s the matter with you, kid? Why have you suddenly changed?"
Ye Luo looked at Ling Xiaofeng with a look of surprise. He rembered that the first ti he ca to the Ling Family, his brother-in-law was not pleased to see him at all. How could he have changed so drastically this ti?
"Brother-in-law, I was wrong before, and I misunderstood. Now I realize that you and my sister are the perfect match. From today on, you will be my brother-in-law, Ling Xiaofeng," Ling Xiaofeng said earnestly, looking at Ye Luo.
"You kept saying that as if I wasn’t your brother-in-law before?" Ye Luo retorted with a curled lip.
"Hehe." Ling Xiaofeng scratched his head and gave an embarrassed laugh.
Then, the three of them went straight into the dining room, where at the head of a table sat the old Master Ling, flanked by a middle-aged couple.
The man was naturally Ling Huatao, and the woman, heavily made-up and dressed like a lady of high standing, was clearly Ling Huatao’s wife and the mother of Ling Qingya and her brother—Yang Qiuli.
Ye Luo had not t Yang Qiuli in his last visit to the Ling Family. Now, seeing her for the first ti, he couldn’t help but recall what Luo Jingxuan had said before—several hidden assets of the Ye Family had all been transferred to this woman’s na, which made Ye Luo take a few more glances at her.
"Ye Luo, Qingya, you’re here. Please take a seat. Dinner’s ready," the old Master Ling said with a broad smile as he looked at Ye Luo and Ling Qingya.
Ling Huatao’s gaze t Ye Luo’s, looking sowhat unnatural, while Yang Qiuli watched Ye Luo, her pupils flashing with an unusual light.
"Qingya, it seems like months since we last saw each other. Your mother has missed you so much," Yang Qiuli said, her words suggesting affection, but Ling Qingya seed sowhat distant in response.
"Miss Ye, I didn’t expect that you would end up with our family’s Qingya after all. I heard you’re now the Deputy Head of the Security Departnt at Ling Corporation. How is your work?" Yang Qiuli said, glancing at Ye Luo.
"Thank you for your concern, Auntie. My work is going well," Ye Luo replied calmly.
