Chapter 251: Concealnt, Flirting
Hearing Zheng Yuzun’s words, Zheng Yixuan and He Zhengyuan beca serious. Zheng Yixuan lowered his voice: "I asked Old Nine, it’s the Clover Organization afraid of you ssing with them, so they hit you first. What’s your plan?" Old Nine refers to Guan Ziyi, who also provided information to Li Yan.
Li Yan smiled slightly: "They’re afraid I’ll ss with them; I will ss with them. If they dare to ss with , what do you think I’ll do?"
Zheng Yixuan tapped his fingers on the table and said irritably: "Stop joking around! I don’t care how you do it, just settle it quickly for !"
"What’s the rush? It’s just the Clover Organization!" Li Yan had just returned, and since they wanted to cause a fuss, why not make it a big one?
Zheng Yixuan said solemnly: "It’s not as simple as you think! You’ve heard of the butterfly effect, right?
You shouldn’t delay with them; the longer the delay, the more advantageous it is for them and the more disadvantageous for you! Don’t forget, you’re not as mysterious as before. You’ve announced your return from a vacation, but you haven’t cut off your current life! The longer it takes, the greater the chance you’ll be discovered. How many people can you protect then? You might be carefree, but can the Clover Organization not strike at the people around you? You might handle ten assassins, but can the others... like the two girls with you now, handle ten assassins?"
Listening to Zheng Yixuan’s words, Li Yan broke out in a cold sweat and imdiately said: "Third Brother’s right! I’ve been arrogant."
Always so confident, he was comparing it to his previous lifestyle. Given his abilities, destroying an organization might not be difficult, and Queen, "they" all have self-preservation capabilities, and won’t beco his burden. Yue Yao was by his side to protect Zhang Yurong; it shouldn’t be a problem. But he had overlooked one thing: an environnt does not equate to a person. Once this identity layer is discovered, all his family and friends will beco targets. How many could he protect then? Yue Yao could only protect against sudden incidents, but after one such event, her identity would be exposed, and she would be even more in danger!
Zheng Yuzun also said: "Now I’m just here to et with Old Third and Old Fifth, but I have to leave tonight."
"I understand. I will resolve the Clover Organization as soon as possible."
They were planning to discuss this matter and provide Li Yan with information afterward, but now that they’ve addressed the most crucial matters face-to-face, they relaxed a bit. He Zhengyuan smiled and said: "I should have made you stay so we could have a good chat. But those two beauties seem a bit uneasy, they’ve looked over several tis in just this short period."
"You’re really not going to introduce them to us?"
Li Yan scoffed: "Old Nine already knows; how could I hide it from you old geezers? Old Five, Old Six might not know, but would you dare say you haven’t looked into it, Old Third?"
Zheng Yixuan jokingly scolded: "As if I’m spying on you! How could I give you appropriate reminders without understanding your situation? Without reminders, you’d have been kept in the dark about ’their’ business last ti, and this ti might stir up trouble."
"You better keep their safety in mind for ."
"What, you think I’m a babysitter?"
While Li Yan and Zheng Yixuan were talking, He Zhengyuan chuckled slyly and said: "Old Seven, I find that you’ve indeed got a good eye; both are quite nice. I heard you’ve got a few beauties hooked up, like that Huang... Huang Ying, a nice young lady. Because she knows you helped her mother get treatnt abroad, does she feel so grateful that she’s willing to marry you?"
Li Yan rolled his eyes at him, "Old He, you’re the head of a charity fund! Mind your manners! You look like a hypocritical, sleazy type exploiting young ladies under the guise of charity and authority."
He Zhengyuan was dumbfounded! Jeez, what kind of world is this! This punk can be sleazy with won left and right, no problem, and I make a joke, and I’m a hypocrite.
Having lost the argunt with Li Yan, he could only glare furiously.
"What’s going on? Old Five, you too, isn’t this favoritism?" Zheng Yixuan pretended to be serious.
"Enough nonsense. Old Five, this thing Huang Ying doesn’t know about. She thinks it’s because you found out about her situation through the internet and contacted her. Don’t let it slip, and don’t let her mother know. The Mortal Fund is ant to help mortals, and they genuinely need help. Right now, they’re already grateful to you and have faith in charity. Revealing the truth would spoil the feeling." Li Yan earnestly instructed.
Huang Ying’s family situation was not an exception, or else it would be known nationwide with a bit of hype. Such situations are everywhere, and there are even worse cases. Internet hype has limited effects as the interest fades quickly. With the existing manpower and channels, the Mortal Fund can’t pay attention to it.
They could quickly contact the hospital and thus contact Huang Ying, actually because of Li Yan’s connection. And this was what Li Yan had previously told Huang Ying about the thod that would beco evident after it worked. (See Chapter 44 for details) The internet hype about the most beautiful, pure girl in history was just a step, a cover to make Li Yan’s other help seem more reasonable.
Back then, he considered ntioning it to Zhang Yurong to see if the company could help a bit, but that would probably be voluntary donations, which might make Huang Ying feel embarrassed, so he contacted He Zhengyuan to let the Mortal Fund check if she t the aid criteria. If not, he might still provide personal support under the na of the Mortal Fund.
Both company and charity help require a reasonable process, and the hype was to convince Huang Ying to believe and accept it. She might have suspected the role of the hype, but she wouldn’t have guessed that Li Yan was good friends with the head of the Mortal Fund, rely believing her luck was good and they happened to notice.
"Alright, just let you keep doing good deeds without leaving a na. But if that little girl doesn’t know the truth and ends up being super grateful to and insists on marrying , I’d feel a bit awkward as the older brother. You better not knock off then!" He Zhengyuan laughed slyly.
Li Yan chuckled: "I’m not doubting your charm, but Fifth Sister-in-law..."
"Cough..." He Zhengyuan also had a young and beautiful girlfriend and was rather afraid of her, so he didn’t dare truly pursue other girls.
At this point, Li Yan hastily bade farewell and left because... he saw soone was going over to bother Zhang Yurong and Yue Yao!
...
Seeing that Li Yan wasn’t coming their way, Lan Tianci, who originally wasn’t interested in greeting Li Yan, felt slighted and embarrassed by being ignored. So, when his companion Chen Wen stared at the two beautiful won without blinking, Lan Tianci also stirred things up.
Initially, Chen Wen seed polite, but seeing Li Yan engrossed in conversation with several n and leaving the two stunning beauties aside, he couldn’t hold back. How could a plain guy neglect beautiful won? As a handso guy, he couldn’t just stand by!
By now, he had already made his way to Li Yan’s table where Zhang Yurong and Yue Yao were seated. Facing them across the table was Chen Wen, who sat down ungraciously.
"Ladies, I’ve seen you before! Last ti at the Prince Hotel, that’s where I saw you. Allow to introduce myself: I’m Chen Wen, Chen as in ’Chen Wen,’ Wen as in ’Chen Wen.’" Chen Wen introduced himself humorously, thinking it was clever. He indeed looked a bit better than Lan Tianci, and like Wen Qiang, he could be considered a handso young lad. Referring to having seen them at the Prince Hotel was, of course, taught by Lan Tianci.
"I don’t know you, and I don’t want to. This seat is taken, please move," Zhang Yurong coldly dismissed him.
Chen Wen already knew she was a rich heiress, so flaunting wealth wouldn’t work. He couldn’t flaunt knowledge either, for fear of showing inadequacies. Hence, he ca with a plan to flaunt his looks, youth, and attractiveness.
With his hand propping up his chin on the table, he showcased his handso face while using what he believed was 80% of Liang Chaowei’s seductive eyes to gaze at Zhang Yurong. With a magnetic voice, he suavely said: "Dear beautiful sisters, I truly admire you both. When I first saw you, I thought you were out of this world, making lose my appetite and sleep. eting by chance again today just proves we have a connection."
He was about the sa age as Yu Xiaodi and Wen Qiang, so he didn’t seem much younger in front of Zhang Yurong and Yue Yao. This was part of his strategy, assuming girls liked being called sisters. Thus, he started with sweet words, calling them sisters, and then complinted them.
Zhang Yurong had already turned icy cold, completely ignoring him. Yue Yao, who was generally more approachable, could only feel goosebumps listening to Chen Wen, urgently looking for Li Yan with her eyes. (To be continued.
