"No need. If I just wanted to take her down, I would’ve had you make a move early on."
"What I want is for Liu Tianyun to see with her own eyes that Tianyun International is taken by , plunging her into despair."
"I want, when she is in despair, to make her even more desperate!"
As White Impermanence spoke, he slamd the teacup in his hand on the table, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.
"Young Master, I understand your thoughts now, but..." The coldness in One-Eyed Dragon’s eyes dissipated sowhat, and he said, "Tianyun International has canceled distribution to dostic suppliers. To proceed with the plan, we’ll need to repurchase iying from overseas, which will increase our costs significantly. If warehouses No. 2 and No. 3 are to be filled, we’ll need about seven hundred million in funds."
"No problem, Tianyun International still has iying as a cash cow. Once we take over Tianyun International, we’ll soon earn back the money lost in repurchasing iying."
White Impermanence exhaled a turbid breath, focused his gaze, and commanded, "Proceed with the plan at full speed, and within a month, seize Tianyun International!"
...
Tianyun International, B-06.
In the morning, warm sunlight stread through the window into the guest room, where birds chirped continuously, as if welcoming a new day.
Zhang Huimin sat up, lazily stretching.
She felt exceedingly well-rested and had a sweet sleep.
The next mont, as if realizing sothing, her face changed dramatically!
This wasn’t her room, what’s going on!
And also... and also...
She rembered!
Last night, she slled a strange fragrance and then lost consciousness!
Suddenly, her face turned a bit panicked.
The next instant, she looked to her side and let out an earth-shattering scream!
But the scream lasted only one second.
Because the door of the guest room... opened...
"Master and Mistress, breakfast is ready."
A sweet-looking girl in a maid outfit walked in, her face turning red before quickly retreating.
Seeing this girl, Zhang Huimin was dumbfounded.
How... how did a pretty girl suddenly appear and call her Mistress!?
This "pretty girl" was, of course, Kagami Reina.
She was unwilling to reveal her true face, so Ye Huan had her disguise a bit to avoid scaring Zhang Huimin with her mask, as they would have to live together for a long ti.
This ti, Kagami Reina knocking Zhang Huimin out was like giving Brother Huan an extraordinary dose of preventative dicine.
Having been back in Huaxia for so long, she had made enemies with too many people, all of whom had power and influence, so it was unpredictable when they might hire assassins or other figures to target those around her if she was not careful.
This ti, Kagami Reina only knocked Zhang Huimin out. What about next ti? The ti after next? It’s sothing fundantally unpredictable.
Considering this, Ye Huan positioned Kagami Reina to be Zhang Huimin’s personal bodyguard!
"Ahem. Ahem."
Seeing Zhang Huimin still in a daze, Ye Huan cleared his throat, "reminding" her, "Sister Zhang, isn’t your posture a bit inappropriate?"
Zhang Huimin’s hands were suspended in the air, her body frozen by the "pretty maid," still in the middle of stretching, revealing her curvy figure.
Hearing this, Zhang Huimin snapped back to reality, and seeing Ye Huan, she breathed a sigh of relief.
No, wait... Why was Ye Huan here!
After a mont’s blankness, she exclaid, "Xiao Ye, you... why are you here..."
Before she could finish, seeing Ye Huan’s not-so-innocent gaze, Zhang Huimin blushed and quickly ended her stretching pose.
"Where is this, and why did I wake up to see you?" Zhang Huimin glared at Ye Huan with a mix of sha and annoyance.
"This is the guest room B-06. There’s a problem with the second-floor bedroom that’s being remodeled."
"As for waking up to see , when we ca back yesterday, I found you passed out, so I carried you into the guest room to sleep. I was worried about you, so I didn’t leave."
Ye Huan answered with his hands behind his head.
"Passed out?" Zhang Huimin furrowed her delicate brows, "I rember I slled a fragrance yesterday and then fell asleep."
"Oh, that was the prank of the maid just earlier. She’s my apprentice, but she’s particularly fond of playing pranks! But don’t worry, Sister Zhang, I’ve already given her a good scolding, and she won’t prank you again in the future," Ye Huan said with a smile.
"The maid just now... is your apprentice? What apprentice?" Zhang Huimin asked with a puzzled expression.
"I’m an old Chinese dicine doctor, of course, it’s a dical apprentice. Her grandfather is also an old Chinese dicine doctor, and I have a deep friendship with him. But her grandfather has gone traveling, and he insisted on sending her to learn dicine from ; I had no choice," Ye Huan sighed, then smiled and said, "In the future, she’ll be living with us long-term, just treat her like a little sister, Sister Zhang."
These words completely relieved all the doubts in Zhang Huimin’s mind.
With all doubts resolved...
The annoyance about Ye Huan staying overnight at B-06 also dissipated since Ye Huan stayed out of concern for her.
Zhang Huimin nodded slightly.
In the next second, noticing Ye Huan’s reddened eyes, her expression imdiately changed.
...
Kagami Reina was about to knock on the door and call the two for breakfast.
She noticed the ceiling around the guest room was trembling. She sighed helplessly and retracted her middle finger, which was about to knock on the door.
