540: Chapter 540: “National Sweetheart” arrives in Zhongzhou 540: Chapter 540: “National Sweetheart” arrives in Zhongzhou The sa incident unfolded within the Donghai Li Family.
Due to the quality issues of Beauty Company’s products, the “Heavenly Daughter” Group under the Donghai Li Family suffered great losses, and Li Dongyang was not only stripped of his position as Vice President of the “Heavenly Daughter” Group but was also grounded by his parents, forbidden to leave the house for an entire year.
After punishing Li Dongyang, the Li Family also began to pay extra attention to Fang Bai.
Despite being suppressed by the “Belle Group” and the “Heavenly Daughter” Group, Beauty Company rose against the odds and successfully surpassed both groups to firmly hold the number one position in Huaxia’s industry sales charts, becoming a miracle in the Huaxia business community.
However, many people were also worried for Beauty Company, Xia Chenyu, and Fang Bai.
Although they successfully thwarted the conspiracies of the “Belle Group” and the “Heavenly Daughter” Group, they had also offended the powerful Shen Family and Li Family behind these two groups.
The Shen Family and Li Family, both formidable and influential noble clans of Huaxia, had suffered heavy losses in this incident and would hardly rest on their laurels.
Of course, both Xia Chenyu and Fang Bai were aware of this, but they didn’t take it seriously.
In Fang Bai’s words, whether it’s a plot hatched in the shadows or in broad daylight, it would be crushed to pieces in the face of absolute power.
If the Shen Family and Li Family were to compete fairly and squarely, Beauty Company would et the challenge head-on.
But if the two families resorted to foul play and slander again, Beauty Company’s counterattack would be even sharper and stronger.
Besides, after secret negotiations between Fang Bai, Xia Chenyu, and Su Yifei, Fang Bai facilitated a deal to sell a portion of Beauty Company’s shares to the Yanjing Lu Family, thereby drawing them into Beauty Company’s camp.
As a result, Beauty Company was now backed by two major families: the Su Family of Zhongzhou and the Lu Family of Yanjing.
The Shen Family and the Li Family would now have to be wary of harming a rat for fear of breaking vases, carefully considering the consequences before making a move against Beauty Company.
For the Yanjing Lu Family, investing in Beauty Company, which conducted legitimate business and earned honest money, was a positive move supported by everyone, including Old Master Lu, Lu Shengguo.
Moreover, Old Master Lu saw the collaboration with Beauty Company not only as a new source of inco for the family but also as an opportunity to foster a good relationship with Fang Bai, a rare talent of the tis—why not embrace it?
……
From the beginning of the lunar month, posters started popping up in the streets and alleys of Zhongzhou City.
According to the information on the posters, the “National Sweetheart” Ye Wui was scheduled to land in Zhongzhou on the sixteenth day of the first month to hold a large-scale concert at the Zhongzhou Gymnasium.
As soon as the news broke, the city was abuzz.
Ye Wui’s fans spanned the global Chinese community, but her concerts were rare.
Her arrival in Zhongzhou thrilled the local fans, with thousands organizing themselves to welco her at the airport on the day of her arrival.
However, no one expected that on the evening of the fourteenth day of the lunar month, Ye Wui arrived in Zhongzhou City, accompanied by a host of bodyguards and assistants, and checked into the “Four Seasons Spring Hotel” owned by the Su Family.
Due to tight security asures, only a very few people knew about Ye Wui’s arrival in Zhongzhou.
From the mont she set foot in Zhongzhou, Ye Wui was in a state of excitent.
After a brief rest at the hotel, she took her four personal female bodyguards in a van and quietly left for Fang Bai’s house, claiming to visit her master.
The four female bodyguards accompanying Ye Wui were Ye Lin, Ye Li, Ye Feng, and Ye Huang.
All four had t Fang Bai before, knew of Fang Bai’s capabilities, and were acutely aware of the relationship between Ye Wui and Fang Bai—one that was partly ntor-student and partly friendly with a tinge of ambiguous affection.
Before leaving Lingnan, the family head, Ye Xing, had explicitly instructed the four to protect their mistress throughout the trip.
However, he specifically ntioned that if the mistress decided to see Fang Bai upon reaching Zhongzhou, they should not ddle too much and simply allow her to proceed.
Ye Feng and the others knew very well that the family head had agreed to let Miss Ye associate with Fang Bai, and perhaps Fang Bai might beco the Ye Family’s son-in-law in the future.
Miss Ye was very fond of Fang Bai, and since Fang Bai practiced both dicine and martial arts with great strength and limitless prospects, as mbers of the Ye Family, Ye Feng and the others were pleased to see it happen.
Ye Wui wanted to give Fang Bai a surprise, so she didn’t inform him in advance about her visit to Zhongzhou City.
Although Ye Wui had never been to Fang Bai’s ho in Zhongzhou City before, “Fang’s Traditional Chinese dicine Clinic” was very famous in Zhongzhou, and the Fang Family was currently living in a large courtyard behind the clinic, so it was easy to find their place.
Less than half an hour after the business van left the “Four Seasons Spring Hotel,” it stopped in front of the entrance to the Fang Family’s courtyard.
Ye Wui gestured to Ye Feng and the other three to wait in the car while she, carrying a few gifts, went up to knock on the door.
A mont later, the courtyard door opened, and a handso young man appeared before Ye Wui.
“Miss Ye?
Why are you here?”
“Ghost Hand?
What are you doing here?”
Ye Wui and the young man were both startled when they saw each other, then asked simultaneously.
“I ca here with my master before the New Year and have been helping out at my master’s traditional Chinese dicine clinic.
Miss Ye, you’re here to see my master, aren’t you?”
The young man was Ghost Hand, and upon opening the door and seeing Ye Wui, he knew she was there for his master.
“I have a concert at Zhongzhou Gymnasium the day after tomorrow, and I ca early to get accustod to the environnt!
Also, I’ve encountered so issues in my cultivation recently and wanted to co to consult Fang Bai about them.”
While Ye Wui really wanted to see Fang Bai, she was too shy to say it directly, so she ca up with this reason, planning to use it whenever soone asked.
When Fang Bai lived in that quadrangle in Yanjing, Ye Wui had visited him more than once.
Ghost Hand could certainly see the subtle relationship between the stunning “National Sweetheart” and his master.
Hearing that Ye Wui had co to consult his master about cultivation issues, Ghost Hand found it amusing, but he wouldn’t expose Ye Wui’s true intentions and stepped aside, saying, “Please co in, Miss Ye.
My master and his family are watching TV inside the house!”
“Mhm.”
Ye Wui nodded, entered the courtyard, and looking at the closed door nearby, she started to feel nervous despite being used to grand scenes.
“Ye Wui, Ye Wui, it’s not like you’re climbing a mountain of swords or descending into a sea of flas, what’s there to be nervous about?
Fang Bai said before, his parents are both kind and amiable…
Okay, don’t be nervous…
don’t be nervous…”
Gathering her courage, Ye Wui slowly approached the door, just about to knock when suddenly the door “creaked” open from the inside.
“Fang Bai?”
Seeing Fang Bai with a smile on his face appearing before her, Ye Wui couldn’t help but exclaim with joy.
