Forbidden Fruit [Full Text] - 10

Chapter 138 Revenge Begins

Ye Tianya, back in Shangri-La, wasn't in a good mood. After doing his homework in his room under the starry night, he returned to his own room, pulled up the international futures market data, and used the analysis program built into Lisi to perform rapid calculations. He then began collecting relevant data for manual analysis.

Not long after, Yin Chao returned from a meeting at the club, looking exhausted. Seeing Ye Tianya come out of his room, he immediately complained, "Boss, that meeting was so tiring! From now on, you should go for these kinds of things!" Ye Tianya was in a bad mood and said somewhat unhappily, "What? You can't even handle this little bit of hardship? How will you be able to handle things on your own in the future? Do you think I'm just being lazy by asking you to go? You've always relied on me; how will you amount to anything in the future? I'm letting you go and get some training, and you're still not happy about it? Then you can just not go next time!" Yin Chao didn't expect Ye Tianya to be so angry, and Yin's mother was also startled. She quickly said to Yin Chao, "Xiao Chao, Ye Tianya is letting you get some training, and you're so young, why are you complaining about being tired? Apologize to Ye Tianya!" Ye Tianya realized his tone had been a bit harsh, sighed, and patted Yin Chao's shoulder, saying, "It's alright, Yin Chao. I ran into Mo Shao Cong this afternoon, so I was in a bad mood. Don't take it to heart. But you should be more independent in the future, and hone your skills. I hope you can handle things on your own and help me out!" Hearing that Ye Tianya was deliberately training him to be independent, Yin Chao felt a mix of confidence and excitement, mostly gratitude towards Ye Tianya. Ye Tianya's stern reprimands had made him realize that he had been relying on Ye Tianya for so long. Even when he analyzed good stocks, he would only feel at ease after Ye Tianya's approval. He lacked Ye Tianya's decisiveness. "

I understand, boss, I won't let you down!" Yin Chao said to Ye Tianya, then turned to his mother, "Mom, don't worry, I know I was wrong, and I won't complain anymore!" Mother Yin smiled and said, "Good, that's good. You two must be as united as brothers. You must avenge Xiao Ye, and you must also achieve something yourself. Especially you, Xiao Chao, stop joking around so much and be more serious, understand?" Both of them nodded respectfully. During this time, Ye Tianya had come to regard Mother Yin as his own mother, and he accepted her words with great respect. Yin Chao pouted and said, "Mom, I don't need you to tell me to be united, but it would be difficult if I didn't smile. Who told you to raise a son who is naturally always smiling?" Mother Yin, both amused and annoyed, reached out and slapped him, saying, "You're still talking back! Go wash your hands, dinner is ready!" Ye Tianya chatted with Mother Yin and her son for a while, and his mood improved considerably. He smiled slightly, went into the room, and helped Xing Ye out. Xing Ye could already take big steps, but he still had some balance problems and was prone to falling. His feet hadn't fully regained feeling; they could only obey his brain's commands.

※※※※※※At the end of the month, as Ye Tianya had predicted, the domestic stock market unexpectedly turned bearish due to the international situation. Many investors who were late to the game suffered heavy losses. However, the investors represented by the more than twenty companies that had joined the financial club only suffered minor losses. This was because those companies didn't quite trust Ye Tianya. Several companies that did trust Ye Tianya had made comprehensive adjustments to their funds in advance, and some even suffered no losses at all. As a result, the club members held Ye Tianya and Yin Chao in even higher esteem. The direct impact of this event was that the club immediately experienced a surge in memberships, with word spreading rapidly. The news of the club's existence and the benefits of sharing Ye Tianya's information spread like wildfire. Hu Qing got busy, and fortunately, the bear market hit, causing a downturn in Hu Qing's Spark Foundation. With less work there and the assistance of Liu Yunxiao, Gu Letian, and others who became club directors, he weathered the storm. The club's membership surged from the initial twenty-odd to over fifty. These new members shared an unspoken understanding: knowing Ye Tianya was targeting the Mo family, they wouldn't help Ye Tianya, but they also wouldn't cooperate with the Mo family.

The Mo family, already facing financial difficulties, saw some of its partners withdraw their capital immediately after Ye Tianya announced his actions. Now, with the bear market, many companies that had previously considered observing Ye Tianya's ability to deal with the Mo family decisively terminated their cooperation and withdrew their funds, all to show their sincerity to Ye Tianya, the protagonist of the financial club. Furthermore, the bear market caused significant losses to the unprepared Mo family, exacerbating their already dire situation and leading to an unprecedented crisis.

Mo Shao Cong realized the situation was hopeless and had no choice but to sacrifice a pawn to save the king. He decisively abandoned his investments in Chaoyang Real Estate and the supermarket business, selling them at a low price. Many other companies had been eyeing this lucrative opportunity, but at the club meeting, Gu Letian suddenly announced his intention to help Ye Tianya deal with the Mo family. He decided to acquire the real estate company. This immediately caused those companies that had wanted the property to give face to Xueya Shuangye and stop competing with them. Instead, they focused on vying for the supermarket investment that the Mo family was transferring.

While other companies had leisure time during the bear market, Gu Letian's team was extremely busy. Xueya Shuangye acquired Chaoyang Real Estate for a low price of two million. Mo Shao Cong had already guessed that Xueya Shuangye wanted to intervene in the feud between Ye Tianya and the Mo family, but he had no choice but to sell it. Besides Xueya Shuangye, no other investment company was willing to acquire the real estate business; he knew it was because of the financiers' club that was causing him so much anxiety. Because many other investment companies in S City also wanted to bid, but they hadn't yet figured out the true nature of the financiers' club Ye Tianya mentioned. They worried that the club might be an alliance, and if they clashed with Xueya Shuangye, they might offend all the companies within the club. That would be a huge loss. By the time those companies figured it out and returned, Gu Letian had already brought in Chaoyang Real Estate.

Of course, Ye Tianya also knew that the reason these companies in the club cooperated with Gu Letian was simply to get some benefits from him, like the one he provided with the bear market information last time. To appease them, Ye Tianya provided all the companies in the club with some information that was insignificant to him but very useful to them.

After Gu Letian acquired the real estate company, he immediately received a notification from President Hu Qing to merge it with Lin Siyin's Tianya Real Estate through an investment. At the same time, Lin Siyin also received a notification from Ye Tianya to negotiate with Gu Letian. Lin Siyin's real estate company had only been developing for less than a year and was still in its infancy. Its management, facilities, and construction teams were all weak. With the merger of an established company like Chaoyang Real Estate, its strength would immediately increase significantly. Moreover, Xueya Shuangye was investing in Tianya Real Estate, so Lin Siyin wouldn't have to pay a single penny; it was a mutually beneficial arrangement. Why not?

With the merger of Chaoyang Real Estate and Tianya Real Estate, Lin Siyin immediately became more energetic and accelerated the construction of the Tianya Mountain Villa. Six construction teams worked in three shifts daily, and the main construction of the villa's buildings was in full swing. This move to merge the real estate companies also attracted the attention of many companies in the real estate industry, most notably Qin Ting of the Qin family.

Upon learning of the merger between Tianya Real Estate and Chaoyang Real Estate, Qin Ting immediately dispatched an investigation. After learning the entire process of the merger, he immediately thought of the key figure involved: Ye Tianya. Ye Tianya wanted to deal with the Mo family, while Gu Letian claimed to help Ye Tianya. The acquired real estate company then merged with the company of Ye Tianya's friend, Lin Siyin. It was obvious that Ye Tianya played a crucial role.

Qin Ting's first thought was to provide financial assistance to the Mo family to deal with Ye Tianya. This news quickly reached his father, Qin Fucheng. "

I heard you plan to provide financial assistance to the Mo family to help them through this difficult time?" Qin Fucheng called his eldest son to him and asked. "

Yes, Dad! This Ye Tianya is too arrogant; he's clearly helping Lin Siyin to oppose us," Qin Ting said angrily.

Qin Fucheng then asked: "Does Lin Siyin's real estate company have a direct conflict with our Qin family?" "No! Does Gu Letian of Xueya Shuangye have a conflict of interest with us?" "No!"

Chapter 139 Pediatric Attack

So what's the point of you helping Mo Shaocong deal with Ye Tianya? Ye Tianya is still incredibly mysterious. Do you believe there are books in Chinese libraries that can cultivate a stock market guru? You came from China yourself; have you ever seen such a book? No! Then why are you helping Mo Shaocong? What benefit do you get from helping him? Will he be grateful to you once he recovers? There are no friends in the business world, only interests. By going against Ye Tianya, you're offending the entire financiers' club. Although none of those people can rival us, what if Ye Tianya gives them some highly profitable information and they unite? Why did I give birth to such a worthless son? Immediately organize funds to compete for Mo's Supermarket. What are you waiting for if you don't grab a share now? I'm furious! Go now! But Dad, Lin Siyin… *slap*… Qin Fucheng, unable to contain his anger, slapped his son across the face, saying, “Lin Siyin, Lin Siyin! All you think about is Lin Siyin! I only didn’t say anything because you made a profit dealing with Lin Zhengnan last time. The Lin Siyin of today is not the same Lin Siyin of the past. You still haven’t figured out who her backer is, and you’re already trying to deal with her? Have you even thought about where her startup capital came from? Before you figure that out, I’m warning you, don’t do anything rash. If you mess with someone you shouldn’t and cause me trouble, I’ll cripple you and let your younger brother take over. Stop thinking about that woman. Compared to her, you’re far inferior. Now get to work!” Qin Ting knew his father was truly enraged. As long as his younger brother was brought up as a threat to his successor status, Qin Ting immediately became much more obedient and left, secretly plotting how to vent his anger. He still remembered the humiliation Ye Tianya had inflicted on him in that restaurant last time.

While other companies were desperately trying to protect their capital during the bear market, the companies in the Financiers' Club were much more relaxed. However, Xueya Shuangye was far from relaxed; in fact, they were busier than ever. Finding no profit in the stock market, Ye Tianya and Yin Chao began mobilizing the entire company's funds to venture into the futures market. Gu Letian confidently entrusted the funds to Ye Tianya and Yin Chao, while he led the company in expanding its scale and business. While other companies dared not take on shareholder agents, he aggressively expanded his business, taking on large amounts of agent funds and entrusting them all to Ye Tianya and Yin Chao to invest in the futures market. Simultaneously, he kept a close eye on the real estate company that had merged with Tianya Real Estate, sending personnel to assist Lin Siyin in developing Haijiao Tianya. This was also Ye Tianya's message conveyed through Hu Qing. This made things much easier for Lin Siyin; with the employees of Tianya Real Estate and the people sent by Gu Letian handling many matters, she and Ren Jing only needed to focus on the villa's blueprints.

In just one month, Xueya Shuangye had more than doubled in size, and Ye Tianya and Yin Chao's first futures investment had also been sold off, recovering their costs. The initial investment of 300 million had turned into 500 million. The news sent the entire company into a frenzy, with the business department bustling with activity, while the investment department became deserted.

This made Zheng Guorong restless. He wanted to ask Ye Tianya for some top-secret information, but he couldn't bring himself to ask. After all, he hadn't given Ye Tianya a single penny of the 20% commission he'd earned from the information he'd obtained from him recently. He'd considered giving him 10%, or even just 5%, like others, but he couldn't bear to part with it. 10% would mean giving away 500,000 of his million-plus earnings. The thought of giving it away already pained him. Now, wanting to ask Ye Tianya, he couldn't bring himself to say it.

Then he thought of Li Lanyu, but then he realized that if he relied on a woman for everything, she would look down on him even more. Just as he was caught in a dilemma, Yin Chao suddenly called him. "

Senior Zheng, have you been a bit free lately?" Yin Chao chuckled calmly on the phone.

"Yes, yes, seeing how hard my colleagues in the business department are working for the company, while our investment department has nothing to do, Junior Yin, do you have any connections? Please give me some pointers!" Zheng Guorong didn't want to lose face in front of a woman, so he had to speak up himself.

Yin Chao chuckled: "Senior Zheng, you're really dedicated to the company. How about this, I'll provide you with some connections, but I want a 5% commission, how about that?" Although Zheng Guorong was reluctant to accept a 5% commission, it was better than doing nothing, so he asked: "You're only providing me with one?" Yin Chao chuckled and said, "Of course, I won't give it to anyone else. Besides, Tianya doesn't plan to let the company's investment department get involved in futures this time. But let's make it clear first, you can't tell Tianya about the information I gave you, and you can't tell anyone else either. Just say you analyzed it yourself. Also, after you make a name for yourself and get noticed by President Gu, you have to support me in important personnel changes in the company!" Zheng Guorong was overjoyed. He was thinking that Yin Chao wanted to have his own power after joining the company, instead of always being in Ye Tianya's shadow. Moreover, Yin Chao was only after a 5% profit, so it all seemed so reasonable. He immediately seized the opportunity and happily said, "Okay, it's settled then. I'll make some friends in the company, and I'll definitely support you!" Yin Chao also happily provided Zheng Guorong with some information before saying "It's a pleasure to cooperate" and hanging up the phone. Zheng Guorong, overjoyed, immediately ran to Gu Letian's office to apply for funds to enter the futures market.

Yin Chao put down the phone, a devilish smile spreading across his face. Ye Tianya, standing beside him, sighed and said, "You call me cunning? I think you're far more cunning than me. You've completely outmaneuvered Zheng Guorong." Yin Chao grinned and said, "Boss, you told me to figure it out myself. I know it's a bit much, but who can blame me when that guy is so greedy and despicable? If I don't prop him up a bit, how can I let him crash and burn?" Ye Tianya shook his head helplessly and said, "I'll stay away from you for now, lest I accidentally fall into your trap!" Xingye laughed from the side, "That's right, that's right, Yin Chao is cunning! Brother, let's run!" Ye Tianya smiled and carefully helped Xingye away. Yin Chao followed with a bitter face and said, "Xingye, do you really think that badly of me?" Xingye giggled and said, "Isn't that what the books say?" First impressions matter. You came to my house for the first time and didn't even buy me candy! Hmph, so what if I have a bad impression of you? You're not coming in tonight without candy! Oh God, Lord, God, God, save me! I've been exploited by this little capitalist Xingye…” Yin Chao followed behind, complaining, while Long Lan and Long Zhu couldn't help but chuckle.

Suddenly, the two girls stopped laughing and quickly stepped forward to protect Xingye and Ye Tianya. At the same time, Xu Keming, who was parked some distance away on the beach, quickly got out of the car and rushed over. Yin Chao gave Ye Tianya a playful look and said, “Boss, I haven't fought in a long time. How about I get some exercise?” Ye Tianya laughed and said, “Sure, you should get some practice too. You'll probably have plenty of opportunities like this in the future.” Xingye looked at Ye Tianya and the now wary Long Lan and the others, puzzled, and asked, “Brother, what are you talking about?” Ye Tianya chuckled, "It's nothing. Yin Chao said he wanted to practice his kung fu, and some people just happened to want to spar with him. Shall we watch Yin Chao fight from the sidelines?" Xingye, hearing that Yin Chao was going to fight, immediately clapped her hands excitedly, "Great! Great! Let's see how strong Yin Chao is! Brother, is he fighting those guys?" Xingye pointed to the dozen or so people approaching from both sides of the beach. Their sleeves were bulging; it was clear they had something inside.

Ye Tianya laughed, "Yes, come here, let me hold you. You can see more clearly, and criticize Yin Chao if he doesn't do something right!" He then picked Xingye up and let her sit in the crook of his arm. While eating a lollipop, she curiously watched the approaching men.

Xingye cheered, "Great! Great! I'll be the coach and give Yin Chao a few pointers!" Xingye had somehow acquired a mature and sophisticated air, making the wary Long Lan and Long Zhu laugh. Xu Keming approached from a distance, looking at Ye Tianya. Ye Tianya transmitted his voice, saying, "No need to come over. These are just some gangsters. Yin Chao can just practice on them!"

Chapter 140 Yin Chao Unleashes

His Power. Xu Keming was still uneasy. He was afraid that if the gangsters said anything that angered Ye Tianya, and Ye Tianya lost his temper and caused a lot of deaths, he would be in trouble. So he quickly approached and stood behind Ye Tianya, ready to defend himself at any moment.

"Who is Ye Tianya?" one of the approaching gangsters, a young man at the front, asked arrogantly.

Ye Tianya smiled and said, "Yes, it is. What can I do for you, friend?" The young man sneered, "I do have some advice. Someone sent us to give you a warning. Lin Siyin is their enemy, so you'll understand the consequences of helping her, and learn your lesson next time. Those who are not involved, please step aside. We're just doing this for money. Sorry for the intrusion!" Ye Tianya smiled slightly and said, "Did Qin Ting send you? That rich kid is really incompetent, sending some useless trash to deal with me. He really underestimates me. I have no interest in playing along. You can have your fun!" After saying that, Ye Tianya carried Xingye and walked towards the inner shore of the beach. The dozen or so thugs tried to rush up to stop him, but Yin Chao jumped out and swept the young man in front of him to the ground with a sweeping kick. He chuckled evilly, "Great! It's been a long time since I've fought! This is really fun. If you want to deal with my boss, you'll have to get past me first!" Sitting in Ye Tianya's arms, Xingye clapped her hands and shouted, "Yin Chao, well done! That was a good move. Here's a piece of Alpenliebe for you!" Yin Chao broke out in a cold sweat. Seeing their leader swept down, the thugs opposite him immediately pulled out weapons from their sleeves—all gleaming machetes. When Yin Chao saw the machetes, he took a small step back and laughed, "Looks like I'll have to practice with you today! Brothers, don't hold back! Don't be afraid to kill someone, otherwise it won't be as satisfying!" The thugs were stunned. They'd only ever seen people beg for mercy at the sight of a knife; today they'd encountered someone who was excited by it.

This kid's gone mad! Never mind that, cripple him first! One of them yelled and charged at Yin Chao.

Yin Chao spun around, his foot plunging into the sand. He then kicked up the sand, sending it flying into the air and scattering it towards the dozen or so thugs charging at him. While they dodged the sand, he soared into the sky like a roc spreading its wings, swooping down. Before the first thug could react, Yin Chao had disarmed him. A series of clanging sounds followed, and more than ten machetes fell to the sand. The thugs stared at Yin Chao in terror, momentarily forgetting to attack, standing there dumbfounded. "

How can you be so useless? You can't even hold a knife properly! Pick up your knives and start over!" Yin Chao, still not satisfied, yelled at the stunned thugs.

"Run!" One of the thugs reacted first, shouting a warning to the others, and they all turned and fled.

Ye Tianya smiled slightly, Xingye perched on his left arm, and waved his right hand at the scattered machetes on the ground. He then flicked the machetes in the air towards the fleeing thugs. As if guided by eyes, the machetes sprang up from the ground, flying past and neatly embedding themselves in the sand in front of the fleeing group. The thugs were startled and froze, too afraid to move. Not only them, but even Xu Keming, Long Lan, Long Zhu, and Yin Chao beside Ye Tianya were utterly horrified, staring at Ye Tianya in astonishment, as if they had seen a ghost.

Ye Tianya smiled at the thugs and said, "Did I say you could leave?" Ye Tianya's smile sent chills down their spines. The man who had initially asked who Ye Tianya was was now pale-faced, bowing and scraping, saying, "Mr. Ye, we're just doing this for money. Please let us go this time. We won't dare to offend you again!" Ye Tianya put Xingye down, took her hand, and smiled, "How about this? I need someone to relay a message to Qin Ting anyway. If you can defeat this guy, I'll let you leave and tell Qin Ting that I, Ye Tianya, said I'll settle this score with him sooner or later. Of course, if so many of you can't defeat him, each of you can just cut off an ear and leave." "Ah, this…" The guy's face turned even paler, and he looked at Yin Chao in terror. Then he looked at Ye Tianya.

Ye Tianya smiled, "Don't worry, I'll make him throw away his knife!" "Damn it, let's fight!" The guy turned around fiercely and said, "Brothers, let's fight! Defeat him, save your ears first!" "Let's fight!" Driven to desperation, more than ten men pounced on Yin Chao. They dared not run. Although they didn't know whether Ye Tianya or the man and two women beside him had thrown the row of machetes, they were certain that if they ran, the machetes would pierce their bodies.

After throwing the machetes into the sea, Yin Chao became excited and charged towards the thug.

Xingye cheered and clapped at the intense scene. It's said that a cornered dog will jump over a wall; these people, driven to desperation, charged forward and began fighting like madmen. More than a dozen pairs of fists and feet caught Yin Chao off guard. The reason he was able to win easily at first was only because he had used sand to confuse the people's eyes before launching a lightning-fast attack, which had a shocking effect. Now, these people were driven to desperation, and since neither side had their weapons, they were not afraid of killing anyone. They surrounded Yin Chao and unleashed a barrage of punches and kicks.

Yin Chao quickly regained his footing and fully utilized the skills Ye Tianya had taught him. He dodged and leaped, knocking the thugs down time and again. But to save their ears, the thugs, ignoring the pain, would get up again and continue charging.

Xingye watched with increasing excitement, cheering, "Go, Yin Chao! Hehe, dodge! Slap his butt!" Xu Keming, seeing that these thugs posed no threat to Ye Tianya, looked towards the row of neatly arranged machetes. In the afterglow of the setting sun, the machetes gleamed, so perfectly aligned from the side. He was certain his master couldn't have achieved that. He saw Ye Tianya simply wave his hand, his versatile hand seemingly flicking through the air—clearly the legendary ability to retrieve objects from a distance. How high a level of skill would that require? Xu Keming was so astonished he almost had a mental breakdown. Meanwhile,

the battle on Yin Chao's side continued. Yin Chao fought with increasing excitement, shouting excitedly among the thugs. Some fell, but others rose again. Xingye, exhausted from cheering, clung to Ye Tianya's arm and tried to sit down again. Ye Tianya squatted down and lifted her up in his arms. Only a monster like Ye Tianya could make a girl as big as Xingye sit in his arms without feeling strained.

Yin Chao, being flesh and blood, was also getting tired after the melee lasted for about fifteen minutes. The leader of the thugs realized that they had become targets for Yin Chao's punches. Although they didn't know whether the row of knives was made by Ye Tianya or by the man and two women beside him, they were certain that there was a master among Ye Tianya's group. If they didn't defeat Yin Chao, their ears might really be lost.

They held on tightly! The leader thought of the most shameless tactic, leaping out and grabbing Yin Chao tightly. No matter if Yin Chao punched or elbowed him, he gritted his teeth and endured it, shouting, "Everyone, grab him!" Yin Chao was now helpless. More than ten men surrounded him, three layers deep, and then they all fell to the ground. "

He...he's down! He's...down! We...beat...him down!" The men got up, panting heavily, but still cheered. Yin Chao, nearly crushed into a pancake by more than ten burly men, finally got up, covered in sweat. He kicked each of them from behind and cursed, "You fucking scoundrels! Now that you've won, get out of here!" The group of thugs, relieved, fled in panic, abandoning their machetes. Xingye, seeing the large mark on the beach where Yin Chao had gotten up, laughed, "Yin Chao, you were thinking of digging a tunnel to escape?" Yin Chao broke out in a cold sweat again, looking at Ye Tianya with a bitter face and said, "Boss, that move of yours was too cruel! Those guys were practically fighting for their lives!" Ye Tianya laughed and said, "If I didn't do it that way, would you have had a good time?" Yin Chao chuckled and said, "You're right. These guys are useless at everything, but they're great punching bags. Ugh, I really regret letting them go. I should have found a place to lock them up and beat them up another day!" Ye Tianya said irritably, "I didn't realize you were such a sadist!" Yin Chao quickly waved his hand and said, "Go away, I'm still a bit lacking compared to you. You're the boss, after all. By the way, Tianya, was that move you just used the legendary telekinesis? Teach me!" As soon as Yin Chao asked, Xu Keming, Long Lan, and Long Zhu all perked up their ears, eager to hear more.

Volume 8,

Chapter 141: The Conspiracy Reappears.

Ye Tianya smiled and said, "Your current skill is not enough. Once you have enough skill, this move is not difficult. Keep practicing. When your skill is sufficient, I will naturally teach you. Alright, the sun has already set over the sea, and we should go home!" Xu Keming, Long Lan, and Long Zhu looked at each other, wondering what level of skill Ye Tianya actually possessed.

After his battle with Elder Long, Ye Tianya stopped deliberately hiding his martial arts skills. Since everyone already knew, there was no need to conceal them any longer. Ye Tianya also wanted to show a little of his strength to make things easier in the future. Xu Keming's current job, besides driving, mostly involved watching over him, which made him somewhat uneasy.

※※※※ Hu Qing brought news that Xueya Shuangye had completed its expansion, renting the entire twelfth floor of Qingfeng Building. The number of employees had increased to over three hundred, and all seven departments were operational. Everything was on track. However, the more than two hundred new employees hadn't yet met him and Yin Chao, the two major contributors to the company. Gu Letian wanted to invite them to the company's general meeting to give everyone a boost.

Ye Tianya replied, "Okay, let Gu Letian arrange it. Yin Chao will attend in my place!" "Yin Chao again? Are you planning to push him to the forefront?" Hu Qing sensed Ye Tianya's intention.

Ye Tianya smiled, "Yes, let him get some experience. With him around, things will be much easier for me. Why?" "You don't trust him?" Hu Qing chuckled. "I don't trust others, but I absolutely trust Yin Chao. Okay, I'll inform Lao Gu to arrange it." After hanging up, Ye Tianya told Yin Chao the news and told him to prepare so he wouldn't be caught off guard. This time, Yin Chao didn't dare complain anymore and happily agreed.

※※※※ The project at the edge of the world was nearing completion. Because of Chaoyang Real Estate's merger with Tianya Real Estate, Lin Siyin had plenty of time. She meticulously oversaw every detail, because this was not only where Ye Tianya would live in the future, but also the key to Tianya Real Estate's instant success. "

President Lin, I feel these light fixtures on the lighting engineering drawings are completely useless. Why put a light fixture here? There are no roads or facilities here; this is clearly a waste of materials." The speaker was an engineer who had come with Chaoyang Real Estate when it merged with Tianya Real Estate.

Lin Siyin smiled and said, "Engineer Wang, I don't know why there's a light fixture here, but we have to follow the blueprints exactly, even if it's a waste, we have to make the most of it, understand?" The engineer, surnamed Wang, looked at Lin Siyin, puzzled. Lin Siyin adopted the authority of a CEO and said, "I don't understand architecture, but I trust the designer of this resort. Your task now is to read the blueprints and follow them. Remember, the dimensions on the lighting engineering blueprints cannot be wrong by even a centimeter, otherwise it will be redone." Under Lin Siyin's authority, the engineer dared not say anything more and hurriedly left with half a blueprint.

Lin Siyin then said to her assistant standing behind her, "Xiao Jing, when will the special glass we ordered from the glass manufacturer arrive?" "Mr. Lin, it will arrive this afternoon!" The assistant was filled with admiration for Lin Siyin's authority. A woman who could build Tianya Real Estate and Xingye Express to such a scale—she had followed Lin Siyin from the very beginning of the company. As Lin Siyin's assistant, she had witnessed Lin Siyin's efforts throughout the growth of these two companies, and she admired Lin Siyin immensely. Their words were full of admiration for Lin Siyin.

After listening to her report, Lin Siyin happily said, "Xiao Jing, well done! Immediately notify the captain of the third renovation team to gather the workers. After the glass arrives this afternoon, start the renovations immediately. Also, notify the first construction team that the trees on three sides have grown tall enough that they no longer need high-pressure water spraying; their work is complete. Inform the finance department to settle their wages and let them return to the company for rest and recuperation." "Yes," Lin Siyin respectfully replied and left.

Looking at the nearly completed villa before her, Lin Siyin took a long breath and exclaimed, "A miracle will be created here! Tianya Real Estate, soon you will become a shining star in all of China, all of Asia, and even the world! Your brilliance will propel Tianya Real Estate to new heights!" Qin Ting didn't heed his father's advice to abandon his pursuit of Lin Siyin. While organizing funds to seize a large portion of the supermarket transferred from the Mo family, he also dispatched his most capable assistant to closely monitor the developments of Lin Siyin's villa. As the "End of the Earth" villa took shape day by day, Qin Ting became increasingly restless. The villa, not yet fully completed, had already greatly impressed him. He knew that if the villa truly took shape, "End of the Earth" would definitely not be unsellable; even without the road, people would be scrambling to buy it.

Therefore, he considered sabotage. He couldn't let Lin Siyin succeed; he was determined to drive her to a dead end. So he contacted Qinglong, the leader of the Qinglong Gang, a criminal organization consistently supported by the Qin family. "

Qinglong, do me a favor." Qin Ting didn't beat around the bush like he had with the fat Director Cai when asking Qinglong for help. "

Young Master Qin, just tell me what you need. As long as it's within my power, Qinglong will handle it." Qinglong was a straightforward man. He took on tens of millions of dollars worth of business from the Qin family every year; how could he not be?

Qin Ting grinned maliciously and said, "I want you to send people to smash up a construction site for me. Smash as many as they build." "What's your background? Do you have any connections?" Qinglong had been in the underworld for so long; he knew the art of yielding and avoiding force. He wouldn't dare touch anything untouchable.

Qin Ting laughed, "Background? What kind of background could a real estate company run by a woman in her twenties have?" Could it be that the usually fearless Qinglong was so cowardly? Hearing that he had no connections, Qinglong laughed heartily, "What are you saying, Young Master Qin? Even if he were the King of Heaven himself, Young Master Qin has given the order, so of course Qinglong will do his utmost." "Good, indeed straightforward. I, Qin Ting, am not one to mince words. This year, I'll give all the drinks at your establishments a 10% discount; that 10% will go into your pocket, how about that?" Qin Ting readily agreed. "

Thank you, Young Master Qin, Qinglong is extremely grateful!" Qinglong feigned gratitude, but secretly plotted to find another weakness in Qin Ting to prevent becoming his lackey in the future.

Suddenly remembering something, Qinglong said, "Young Master Qin, the task you asked me to send to deal with Ye Tianya was a disaster!" "Disaster? What happened? You couldn't even handle a student?" Qin Ting said displeased. Qinglong lowered his head, appearing ashamed, but his face turned extremely ugly. Qin Ting's tone made him want to strangle him immediately. But he knew it wasn't the right time yet, so he quickly put on a sheepish smile and said, "Young Master Qin, you don't know, this Ye Tianya is no simple character. The dozen or so skilled fighters I sent couldn't even handle that student named Yin Chao beside him. In less than a minute, he knocked all their machetes out of their hands. According to those useless bastards, Yin Chao is a martial arts fanatic. He stopped them and demanded they fight him, or he'd cut off their ears." After the fight, five of the dozen or so guys had broken ribs. And those one man and two women who always followed Ye Tianya—one of them must be highly skilled in martial arts, managing to throw over ten machetes simultaneously, arranging them neatly in a row. In my opinion, Ye Tianya is very mysterious; it's best if Young Master Qin doesn't deal with him. Qin Ting was sweating a little, but he couldn't lose face in front of Qinglong. He said with feigned strength, "No matter how strong he is, he won't escape my grasp. Let's deal with Lin Siyin first; we can put him aside for now!" Qinglong, an old hand, could see Qin Ting's unease. A mocking glint flashed in his eyes as he said, "Young Master Qin, Ye Tianya sent someone to tell you he'll remember that debt and get it back from you sooner or later. I think Young Master Qin might need to be careful." A flicker of panic crossed Qin Ting's eyes, but when he saw the tall foreigner behind him, his expression calmed down. He laughed and said, "What is Ye Tianya? Do you think I'm afraid of him?" "Do you think Roth beside me grew up eating vegetables?" Qin Ting said proudly, looking at the tall, white man beside him.

Qinglong's expression changed. He had to admit that this white man was very strong, so strong that he couldn't even see through him. This was also the reason why he had to submit to the Qin family. He knew that no matter how ruthless a person was, they couldn't be more powerful than money. For a rich person, hiring a master was just a matter of writing a check. Moreover, he knew that the Qin family had a force that few people knew about.

Chapter 142 Underworld Feud

Although Qinglong was extremely dissatisfied with Qin Ting, he had to do as Qin Ting said. As long as Qin Fucheng was in the Qin family, Qinglong could not dream of turning the tables. Qinglong could not challenge the power of the Qin family at present. However, before taking action, he conducted a comprehensive investigation into Lin Siyin. When he discovered that Lin Siyin's start-up capital came from a mysterious source, and that Lin Siyin was friends with Ye Tianya, a mysterious person whose intelligence system couldn't even figure out, he hesitated for a moment, but finally sent his capable assistant—Butcher.

Butcher had been with him for over ten years and had never failed in his mission. After the failure of the dozen or so men he sent to deal with Ye Tianya, he had to reassess Ye Tianya's strength. That's why he didn't send ordinary people, but instead sent his most capable assistant, Butcher.

When Butcher led his men out, Shadow immediately received the news, and Black Hawk immediately informed Night Owl.

Upon receiving the news, Night Owl immediately issued an order for Yang Huan to personally lead a team to protect Haijiao Tianya. Although Night Owl didn't know that Haijiao Tianya belonged to Ye Tianya, he knew that Ye Tianya and Lin Siyin had a special relationship. Helping Lin Siyin would also help Ye Tianya. He believed that if Ye Tianya knew about this, he would definitely help Lin Siyin as well. "

Brother, should we inform Little Ye?" Yang Huan asked Night Owl after issuing the order.

Night Owl thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No need. It's such a small matter, why bother telling him and making him worry? Just go and handle it. Be careful, I heard that the forest at the ends of the earth is a bit mysterious, I guess it's some kind of formation. Don't go in when you get there. Just guard the entrance and the buildings inside." Yang Huan nodded and said, "I understand, brother, I'll be going now! Today I'll give Little Ye a big gift." Night Owl laughed and said, "Alright, be careful. Don't tell me you can't even handle a butcher! Hehe, today I'll cripple one of Qinglong's assistants to avenge the brothers who died at their hands last time!" Yang Huan left with a cold laugh, but Night Owl remembered the great battle with the Qinglong Gang a few years ago for the nine venues in the central street. Although Night Owl eventually seized the territory, he lost dozens of brothers, and he was imprisoned in Lincheng Prison with Lei Bao for several years. This had always been a pain in Night Owl's heart. That's why he fought Tu Long to the bitter end. Last time, he kidnapped Lei Bao partly to help Ye Tianya, and partly for revenge.

※※※ Yang Huan and his men rushed ahead of the butcher. When they arrived at Haijiao Tianya, the workers had already dispersed and gone into their sheds to rest. When Yang Huan and his men stormed into the construction site, they woke up all the workers. They all turned on their lights and came out to see

what was happening. "Listen up! Someone's coming to smash the manor you've worked so hard to build! Boss Lin sent us to protect it. Don't move, go back to sleep. No matter what happens outside, nobody is allowed to come out! Whatever you see, treat it as a dream tonight!" The men behind Yang Huan brandished their weapons and spread out to various corners.

Hearing that it was Boss Lin's men, and seeing the gleaming machetes they brought, the workers obediently crawled into their sheds, afraid to come out. The bolder ones peeked out through the cracks in the sheds to try and see what was going on.

Shortly after, the sound of wheels echoed outside the construction site, and soon twenty or thirty burly young men rushed in, carrying sledgehammers, steel pipes, and other demolition tools. Butcher was the first to rush in, unaware of Yang Huan's men lurking in the shadows. He glanced at the nearly completed building and sighed, "Smashing it like this is such a waste of such a magnificent project! Hey, smash it!" Clearly feigning compassion, he said it was a pity but immediately ordered the demolition. As soon as Butcher finished speaking, his men rushed in as well. But at the same time, the searchlights on the construction site's elevated structure also turned on. Yang Huan's men immediately emerged from all directions, surrounding Butcher's group.

Yang Huan stepped out from the encirclement and sneered, "Butcher, Tianya Real Estate doesn't seem to have offended your Green Dragon Gang, does it? Such a beautiful project, you think you can just smash it like that? You'd better ask the knife in my hand if it agrees first." When the butcher saw Yang Huan, his heart skipped a beat. He had long heard of the strength of the Four Tigers of Yanhuang, and he knew he was no match for Yang Huan. Now, surrounded by them, it was clear that Yang Huan had been waiting for him.

Although he felt a chill, the butcher didn't want to lose face, and said in a sinister tone, "Hey Yang, Tianya Real Estate doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, does it? We've kept to ourselves all these years. Are you trying to cause trouble for our Green Dragon Gang again?" Yang Huan snorted, "Tianya Real Estate may not have anything to do with us, but the money is. We're just protecting this construction site and getting a little money for it. Since you want to cause trouble in the area we protect, it's not that we're causing trouble for the Green Dragon Gang, it's that you provoked us first. Remember that year when you despicably used explosives to kill dozens of our brothers? Today, you'll pay for your blood debt! Brothers, kill them! Avenge the brothers who died last year!" At Yang Huan's command, the two sides immediately clashed. The Butcher's men were outnumbered by Yang Huan's, and they hadn't expected any resistance. He'd assumed they were just cowardly construction workers, not a threat. The steel pipes he brought would be useful, but the sledgehammers were less effective. Outgunned and outnumbered three to two, the Butcher's men were pushed back, the encirclement shrinking. About ten men at the outer perimeter had already fallen, all of them Butcher's own.

Seeing his men fall, the Butcher was enraged and charged out of the encirclement. The ordinary gangsters were no match for him. One of Yang Huan's men was punched and sent flying, unconscious. Knowing his men were no match for the Butcher, Yang Huan rushed forward and intercepted him. The two immediately engaged in battle. Inside the encirclement

, blood and flesh flew everywhere. Fewer and fewer of the Butcher's men remained standing, while Yang Huan's side fought the Butcher to a standstill. Dodging and slashing, back and forth, the butcher was soon panting. "

I don't have time to play with you anymore, die!" Yang Huan roared, grabbing the butcher's arm and violently throwing him. The butcher felt a tremendous force, the pain of his arm almost being torn off drove him into a frenzy. Even while being flung into the air, he tried to lunge at Yang Huan's head, but the momentum was too great, and he was thrown out, impaling himself on the steel frame erected by the workers. A steel pipe pierced through his thigh, and blood gushed out. "

Alright, leave a few of them to clean up the mess. Don't make us carry people after we've finished!" Yang Huan clapped his hands, as if nothing had happened, and shouted to his men who were about to cut down all the butcher's men.

The men stopped. Four or five of the butcher's men remained, looking at Yang Huan tremblingly. Yang Huan sneered: "What are you looking at? Take your own men, alive or dead, with you. Do you want them to bleed more in this beautiful place?" "I'll give you three minutes. If there's one left on the ground, I'll kill one of you!" The butcher's men were nearly scared to death. They didn't dare wait any longer, frantically dragging their brothers, dead and alive, onto the truck. They actually cleared the ground in three minutes, then looked at the butcher still hanging on the steel pipe. They looked at Yang Huan, as if asking if they could take the butcher with them.

Yang Huan glanced at his men, several of whom were injured, and said to them, "Bandage their wounds. Wake up A'Luo and let him take revenge!" A'Luo, whom Yang Huan referred to, was the guy the butcher had knocked unconscious with a single punch. Upon waking and seeing the butcher hanging on the steel pipe, his eyes immediately blazed with rage. He said to Yang Huan, "Boss, please let me take revenge!" Yang Huan chuckled indifferently, "Fine, I'll let you take your revenge, but don't kill him. We're law-abiding citizens, we can't kill." Yang Huan's men all laughed. They had just slaughtered a whole bunch of people, yet now they were proclaiming themselves law-abiding citizens. Only Yang Huan, the victor, had the leisure to joke like that.

A Luo picked up a machete from the ground and charged at the butcher hanging on the steel pipe. The poor butcher, now hanging on the pipe, couldn't go up or down, enjoying the feeling of being slaughtered. To avoid killing him, A Luo stabbed him in the arms and legs, each stab drawing blood and a scream, scaring the workers peeking in the shed into closing their eyes.

Finally, the dying butcher was carried away by his men. But he would probably never be called a butcher again; crippled, his fate was to be slaughtered. Yang Huan knew that with Butcher's return, another battle with Qinglong would begin. For over a year, Night Owl had been biding his time, preparing for revenge against Qinglong; this battle to defend the ends of the earth was merely the fuse. The first thing Yang Huan did upon returning was to organize his forces and wait for Qinglong's men to appear.

Chapter 143: A Petty Man's Triumph

The workers assumed Yang Huan and his group were hired by Lin Siyin to protect the construction site, so they didn't report it to her. Ye Xiao, not wanting to ask for a favor for helping Ye Tianya with a small matter, also kept quiet. Yang Huan cleaned the site before leaving, and when Lin Siyin arrived the next day, she didn't notice anything amiss. Thus, what should have been a major event for the entire company remained largely unknown.

Meanwhile, one person was basking in the limelight at Xueya Shuangye: Zheng Guorong. Since the verbal agreement with Yin Chao, he had received regular updates, but not from anyone else. Zheng Guorong followed Yin Chao's advice and entered the futures market, making several large profits. Gu Letian began to value him, noticing his expertise in futures despite his lack of success in the stock market. Gu Letian gradually trusted him more when he applied for funds, approving increasingly larger sums, eventually granting him investments exceeding ten million.

Zheng Guorong's continuous victories in the futures market propelled him to stardom within the company, placing him second only to the legendary "Twin Dragons of China," Ye Tianya and Yin Chao. Today was the company's first all-staff meeting since its expansion, and Zheng Guorong was chosen by Gu Letian to speak—a moment of great pride for him.

He got up early, dressed himself up like a model of a suave gentleman, and drove his newly purchased Mercedes to the company. As one of the company's earliest veterans after the expansion, he was certain he would become a department manager in the personnel changes at this meeting, hence his meticulous preparation. With his past 20% commissions from Ye Tianya's support and his recent earnings from futures trading, he could easily afford a BMW. However, since the company's vice president, Gu Letian, only drove a Santana, he couldn't afford to be too conspicuous. He had to drive a regular Mercedes to work. In the company's recent establishment, few people drove private cars like him. Even the investment minister, Su Dawei, still takes the bus to work. Zheng Guorong is now practically a small-time millionaire.

See him? That's Zheng Guorong, a futures trading expert. He hasn't lost a single trade since he entered the futures market. It seems he'll soon be one of the "Three Dragons of China," alongside Ye Tianya and Yin Chao. Wow, a graduate of a prestigious university, handsome, rich, and a company veteran. He's already driving a Mercedes after such a short time working here. He'll definitely be a diamond bachelor in the future, and everyone's swooning over him. Shouldn't he go after him? But how could he possibly accept that…

That's Zheng Guorong! Quick, go say hello. It'll be good to build a relationship later. If he can give you some pointers, you might have a chance to drive your own car. I heard he's already worth millions, almost tens of millions, and he's so good at futures trading. Why doesn't he go out and do it himself? You're so stupid! Going out on your own is too tiring. It's not as good as him. He can apply for tens of millions in capital to enter the market and come out with millions in profits. Why struggle so hard on your own? That's true... When he first entered the company, colleagues greeted him warmly all the way. Even his former colleagues, who hadn't looked down on him before, had completely changed their attitudes, becoming so enthusiastic that he felt flattered. He couldn't help but put on airs, simply nodding and smiling at others, adopting the air of a superior. But only he knew in his heart that even if he earned tens of millions, he wouldn't dare to go out and start his own business. Facing Ye Tianya and Yin Chao, without Yin Chao's covert support, he was nothing. Going solo? He wouldn't even dare to dream of it.

Entering the office, Zhan Kun, who had arrived a few minutes earlier than Zheng Guorong, saw his smart attire and greeted him with a smile: "Not bad, Guorong. You're going to give a speech today. Dressed so smartly, are you trying to win over all the beautiful female employees in the company?" Of the first dozen or so people in the company, Zhan Kun and Su Dawei were the only two who hadn't changed their attitude towards Zheng Guorong after his recent rise to fame, still joking around as before.

Zheng Guorong laughed, "Zhan Kun, you said that, I didn't! Little Zheng is now a private car commuter, young, handsome, and rich, charming countless girls. But you have to save one for Zhan Kun!" Su Dawei chimed in with a smile. Zheng Guorong was annoyed by Zhan Kun and Su Dawei's use of "Guorong" and "Little Zheng," thinking that soon they'd have to add a title to his surname. However,

Zheng Guorong didn't show his displeasure, laughing, "Don't laugh at me, Minister Su. You want a private car? It's not hard, is it? I don't believe you can't afford one." Su Dawei laughed, "Buying a car is easy, but maintaining it is difficult. Insurance, road tax, maintenance, fuel, and environmental pollution control fees—all sorts of things added up. Someone like me, with little commission and only basic wages, can't afford it. Anyway, the meeting is about to start. Little Zheng, you'd better do your best in your speech today and bring honor to our department." Although Zheng Guorong was quite dissatisfied with Su Dawei's superior-to-subordinate tone, he was still Su Dawei's subordinate and dared not show his dissatisfaction. He forced a smile while dealing with the situation, all the while thinking about how he would get revenge when he climbed higher than Su Dawei in the future.

The company's first all-staff meeting was held in the largest conference room on the twelfth floor. The conference room could easily hold about three hundred people. When Su Dawei and Zheng Guorong entered, it was already full, but there were only a few people in the front row. They were all the company's dozen or so veterans; clearly, the empty seats were reserved for them.

Su Dawei and the others, who sat in the front row, looked around, searching for Ye Tianya and Yin Chao, but ultimately withdrew their gaze in disappointment. "

Didn't Ye Tianya and Yin Chao come? Didn't they say they were coming to the meeting?" Chen Kun scanned the room but couldn't find Ye Tianya and Yin Chao, so he asked Su Dawei in a low voice.

Su Dawei laughed: "Are you out of your mind? Do you think they would sit here early and wait to be besieged by those admirers? I think there are a few reporters I've seen before mixed in." There's going to be a show today. What? I'll go get security to kick them out! Zhan Kun was about to stand up to find security when Su Dawei pulled him back and whispered, "What are you doing? If it wasn't arranged by President Gu, would these people have been able to sneak in? You mean... President Gu wants to use this to let those gossip lovers boost the company's reputation again?" Zhan Kun wasn't stupid; he quickly realized what was going on.

Su Dawei chuckled and said, "You said it yourself. I didn't say anything. If Yin Chao and Ye Tianya find out, President Gu will definitely skin you alive." Zhan Kun chuckled and said, "I didn't say anything. Did you hear what I said?" "No, didn't you just say there are a lot of beautiful women in the company?" Su Dawei said with a smile. Although their voices were soft, Zheng Guorong, who had been sitting upright and putting on a serious face since arriving at the venue, could hear them clearly. At this moment, he was both nervous and excited. If there were really reporters, he could be the center of attention today. He couldn't help but fantasize about Li Lanyu's expression if she saw his picture in the newspaper or on television. He remembered that even when he had made a fortune with Ye Tianya's secret support, Li Lanyu hadn't shown any appreciation for him. Because Li Lanyu knew about Ye Tianya's help. It wasn't until Yin Chao secretly helped him, without Li Lanyu's knowledge, that she realized his true abilities and praised him a few times. But how could he be satisfied with just that? He was still unable to have her, and his heart was burning with longing. Yet, Li Lanyu always managed to cleverly avoid him.

He secretly thought that if he made a big splash this time, or even if he got promoted to manager after the company's personnel changes, Li Lanyu might be proud of her boyfriend and, in a moment of joy, might just give in to him. Then…

Lost in thought, he was interrupted by applause. Looking up, he saw Gu Letian and his secretary had already gone up to the stage.

The secretary, presiding over the meeting, stepped to the microphone and announced: "Colleagues, the first plenary meeting after the expansion of Xueya Shuangye is now beginning. Please close both doors of the meeting room. Each department should tally the number of latecomers. Anyone absent today will have three months' pay deducted." A murmur rippled through the audience. The secretary quickly called out: "Please be quiet. Now, please welcome General Manager Gu to speak."

Chapter 14: The Conference's Turmoil

When Gu Letian walked to the microphone, the audience hadn't completely quieted down yet. His expression immediately darkened. He said, "Colleagues, do you all feel that deducting three months' pay for latecomers is too lenient and unfair to those of you who arrived early? Then let's deduct five months! Department heads who aren't strict enough with their staff will be deducted three months." This time, no one dared to speak; the audience was completely silent. Originally, the department heads were already present and shouldn't have been penalized, but because of that earlier uproar, department heads with absent employees had three months' bonus deducted. No one dared to cause a commotion anymore.

Gu Letian then looked at the quiet audience with satisfaction and said, "Our company, Xueya Shuangye, initially only had a dozen or so people. You could say it was just an unknown little company, so small it was negligible in the financial world." Even so, none of our dozen or so colleagues have ever been late for work. Later, during our first expansion, our staff grew to over fifty, and they were all full of confidence in the company's future. No one was lazy or unmotivated, which made me very happy. Then, the company expanded a third time, and now we have over three hundred employees. Our company has gained some recognition in S City's financial circles. With the help of Ye Tianya and Yin Chao, we became one of the board member companies of the Financiers Association. Besides increased influence, our overall strength has also risen to a level that cannot be ignored. We now have agents for three-tenths of the city's retail investors, and our business department is working overtime every day, with the number still increasing. No other company dares to compare with us in this regard. The company's strength is increasing, like a tree, constantly growing and its branches becoming more lush. But what does this mean? It doesn't mean that as the company grows stronger, it allows people to slack off and coast along, nor does it mean that anyone can bring their bad habits from other companies to Xueya Shuangye. The company's growth means greater responsibility; the interests of three-tenths, or even more, of the shareholders are in our hands. What does that mean? Some of you may not know this, but the business department certainly does. According to our agency agreement with shareholders, regardless of whether our investments are profitable or not, we are obligated to pay shareholders monthly dividends. The fact that you're here shows you know what we're in. We don't just invest; we also deal in stocks and futures. You should know that the stock market and futures markets are constantly changing. For those in this industry, what does time represent? It represents profit, money, and even the success or failure of a deal. Today is the first general meeting, and I shouldn't have started off so angry, but I couldn't help it. Since the third company-wide meeting, we've been working for a week now, and looking at the daily attendance records, at least thirty people have been late by more than half an hour each day. More than ten of you were late for today's meeting. That means more than twenty of you are frequently late. I want to ask you twenty-odd people, are you here to work or to collect your monthly salary? After Gu Letian finished speaking, many people lowered their heads. Seeing that the effect was about right, Gu Letian calmed his emotions and said in a gentle tone: "Everyone, don't be too nervous. Xueya Shuangye isn't heartless. Xueya Shuangye's history is only less than a year old, which you should have already read in the newspapers, so I won't go into further detail. You can also ask your colleagues who have worked at the company for a while. Actually, Xueya Shuangye is like a warm family. As long as everyone is dedicated to the company, the company will not treat you unfairly. In this bear market, other companies may have nothing to do, but at Xueya Shuangye, what we fear is that you won't want to work. The company's commission system is arguably the highest among all the companies in the city, and it's always cashed out on the spot. The company's earliest employees should understand this best. Back then, the company only had a little over a million yuan in funds, but I still let them take a commission. Why? Because they were wholeheartedly dedicated to the company, and that commission was a reward they deserved." Among these employees, the one who received the most commission was Zheng Guorong, a young and promising member of the investment department. "Let's invite him up here to share his insights..." Gu Letian said, but Zheng Guorong didn't hear the rest. He hadn't expected Gu Letian to call him up first. His mind raced, and he felt a surge of excitement, secretly pleased that he was about to be given a prominent position, as if he could see a bright future ahead. Excitedly, he stood up and walked towards the stage. In his mind, however, he was silently rehearsing the lines he had memorized for most of the night before.

Applause erupted, and then erupted again. As the most promising financial genius besides Ye Tianya and Yin Chao, almost everyone in the company was acutely familiar with the name Zheng Guorong. The applause was as enthusiastic as when Gu Letian took the stage.

Hello everyone, I'm Zheng Guorong from the Investment Department. First of all, I'd like to thank General Manager Gu for giving me this opportunity to speak. I owe my small achievements today to General Manager Gu's cultivation and trust, and to my colleagues in the Investment Department for their guidance. Thank you… Zheng Guorong began by thanking everyone from top to bottom, then subtly praised himself before continuing: "Actually, the most important thing in futures trading is to pay attention to relevant current events and predict futures market trends. For example, the MK war eight years ago. If you could have predicted in advance that the war would definitely break out, then you could have invested in oil beforehand. When the war broke out, that was when oil futures would have exploded. Of course, to predict and be certain beforehand requires strong analytical skills and a certain amount of intuition. If the two sides suddenly reach an agreement and the war is over, then the money you invested in oil will be gone forever…" Zheng Guorong was rambling on at the front of the stage, while Yin Chao in the small office next to the podium sneered: "You're really good at bragging, talking a good game, but it's all useless. Analytical skills and intuition? Isn't that obvious? Who doesn't know that?" "Climb higher, climb a little higher..." Zheng Guorong launched into a tirade of principles everyone already knew, but as one of the company's stars, his words carried considerable weight, effectively igniting the passion of those below. Everyone was filled with confidence in the company's future, and they were utterly impressed by Zheng Guorong. Especially the young women fresh out of school, their eyes gleamed with admiration.

Zheng Guorong then appropriately expressed his loyalty and determination to the company and to Gu Letian, painting a vivid picture of the company's future before stepping down from the stage.

Gu Letian was satisfied with Zheng Guorong's speech; at least it achieved his goal of boosting company cohesion. After gesturing to his secretary, the secretary stepped to the microphone and said, "Colleagues, I think you've all heard the news. We were going to invite the usually mysterious Ye Tianya and Yin Chao to this conference. Unfortunately, Ye Tianya has something to attend to and can't make it. However, we are honored that Yin Chao, representing Huaxia Shuanglong, has arrived at our venue. Now, please welcome Yin Chao to share his wisdom with us..." Hearing his name called, Yin Chao knew it was his turn to go on stage. He straightened his new suit, walked out of his small office, and ascended the stage from backstage. Looking at the sea of people below, Yin Chao felt a little insecure, but he quickly remembered Ye Tianya's words about him coming to hone his skills. He immediately regained his composure. After smiling and nodding to Gu Letian, he took the microphone from the secretary.

Many people had already stood up. The mystery surrounding Yin Chao and Ye Tianya had piqued the curiosity of everyone except the company's original dozen or so employees. The reporters lurking below were constantly snapping photos of Yin Chao.

Seeing the photographer trying to take pictures discreetly without using flash, Yin Chao simply smiled and didn't object. He put the microphone to his mouth and said with a smile, "Hello everyone, my name is Yin Chao..." Before he could finish, applause broke out, interrupting him. Helpless, he raised his hand to stop the applause and said with a laugh, "Please stop clapping, or I'll be scared away! Look, I had so many brilliant lines ready for you all, but you scared me like that, and I... I forgot them all! What am I going to do now?" The audience burst into laughter. Yin Chao brought laughter wherever he went; getting him to be serious, given his usual carefree attitude, was no easy feat.

Chapter 145 Personnel Transfer

was originally just a joke, but a voice came from below: "Since you forgot what to say, why don't you answer a few questions for us, Yin Chao?" Yin Chao looked at the person who spoke, the guy who had been hiding and taking pictures, and smiled: "This reporter friend has some questions to ask. Also, the photos you took while hiding might not be of very good quality. Although I don't need you to make me look more handsome than I am in real life, please don't make me look ugly." Some people below were surprised, some laughed, and they all looked at the person who spoke. Gu Letian on the stage also changed his expression and looked nervously at Yin Chao, worried that he would be angry because he had arranged for reporters.

"I...I'm a public relations employee, not a reporter..." The woman tried to defend herself, but Yin Chao laughed, "Alright, a reporter is a reporter. President Gu already told me, so you don't need to hide anymore. Just ask whatever you want!" Gu Letian was secretly sweating. He hadn't told Yin Chao at all; Yin Chao's words were a complete bluff. Sure enough, when the reporter heard that Gu Letian had already told Yin Chao, she immediately relaxed and adopted a reporter's demeanor, saying, "Thank you, Mr. Yin Chao, for accepting our interview. I am..." The reporter wanted to introduce herself, but Yin Chao smiled, "You're a reporter from the Oriental Evening News, right? Oh, I recognize you. You surrounded me once before, didn't you? This time, President Gu arranged it, so ask me anything. I'll answer whatever I can. But next time, you're not allowed to stop me from going to class." The female reporter blushed and said, "Okay, Mr. Yin Chao, what's your relationship with Ye Tianya? Is there something that prevents him from attending such an important meeting today? Or does he disdain attending?" I heard he… The reporter, having finally gotten Yin Chao's permission for an interview, bombarded him with questions. Yin Chao, sweating profusely, quickly said, “Wait, Ms. Reporter, my memory isn't very good. Can we take it one step at a time?” The reporter's face flushed with embarrassment; she was clearly too excited. However, the questions she asked were the ones that all the company employees were curious about. The meeting room fell silent as everyone looked at Yin Chao, waiting for his answer.

Yin Chao smiled and said, “Ye Tianya and I are classmates… well, actually, you know the answer even if you don't ask.” Your second question is a little problematic, the problem lies in the word "important." Today's meeting is important to everyone in the company, important to me... and important to Ye Tianya. However, it's not that Ye Tianya disdains attending; it's just that he has more important things to do. So, he asked me to convey his greetings to everyone, wishing you all good health, all the best, and great wealth every day. May everyone drive their own car to work like Mr. Zheng Guorong, never late... Oh, the last part is my own addition, hehe, not Ye Tianya's. Another burst of laughter erupted, and Zheng Guorong immediately felt his face become unnatural, but he couldn't understand whether Yin Chao was trying to increase his fame or deliberately insulting him. The reporter continued: So what are Ye Tianya's more important things? Yin Chao smiled: More important things? It's that his little princess's injured leg is starting to recover, and she's practicing walking again. That guy Ye Tianya, as long as his little princess is happy, he won't care even if the sky falls. Not to mention this meeting, even if President Gu were to give him the position of vice president today, he still wouldn't give up teaching the little princess to walk... Whoosh—the whole room erupted in commotion again, and many people immediately asked: Who is the little princess? Yin Chao laughed: Who else could it be but Xingye, the one who caused Ye Tianya's hair to turn white overnight after the incident? The story of Ye Tianya's hair turning white overnight because of Xingye had become a legendary tale throughout the company ever since Zheng Guorong revealed it. Even those who had only been with the company for less than a week would hear this legendary story when they curiously inquired about Ye Tianya. Of course, they wouldn't be unfamiliar with the name Xingye. Yin Chao had his own plans for pushing Xingye forward in this setting. Ye Tianya was determined to cultivate him to be independent and even his representative. He believed he could handle it, but he also knew that Xingye's position in Ye Tianya's heart was unparalleled. If Xingye regained consciousness in the future, he might become another representative of Ye Tianya. Yin Chao was simply increasing Xingye's influence in advance. This would allow everyone to understand Xingye's place in Ye Tianya's heart, so that when Ye Tianya officially announced his position as the company's president, Xingye could simultaneously become Ye Tianya's spokesperson.

No one in the company blamed Ye Tianya for saying this, and Gu Letian especially didn't, because they all knew that what Yin Chao said was true. Ye Tianya's feelings for Xingye were deeply moving, let alone those of ordinary people like them.

The reporter quickly jotted down the notes and then asked: "Yin Chao, what's the secret to your and Ye Tianya's success in the financial world?" Yin Chao smiled and said: "Reporter, that's confidential. If I told you the secret, wouldn't we have another enemy? Hehe, but seeing how dedicated you are, I'll tell you. The secret is analysis plus intuition. Mr. Zheng Guorong just mentioned it to everyone, didn't he?" Zheng Guorong was secretly delighted. With Yin Chao's confirmation, his words became more believable, and naturally, his influence would increase even further. Just now, Yin Chao had single-mindedly portrayed Ye Tianya as a womanizer who only loved beautiful women and lacked ambition. In his view, this was merely a veiled attack on Ye Tianya's influence in everyone's eyes, further confirming his suspicion that Yin Chao wanted to betray Ye Tianya.

The poor reporters, however, found that Yin Chao refused to answer nine out of ten questions. But the initial exclusive about Ye Tianya and Xingye was enough for him to report back to his editor.

After speaking, Yin Chao slipped out of the company and disappeared. The reporter was also asked to leave the meeting room by Gu Letian. The meeting then reached its climax: personnel changes. Personnel changes were the most concerning issue for company employees, with everyone speculating about who would be their superiors and who would be laid off.

The head of the personnel department, Feng Zhiwei, a thirty-something with a master's degree in human resource management, had been hired during the second expansion. When he stepped to the microphone and opened the folder in his hand, the meeting room fell silent except for the rapid breathing of everyone present.

The personnel changes were announced directly. Zhan Kun, formerly of the Investment Department, was appointed as Special Assistant to the Vice President. Su Dawei, formerly of the Investment Department, was appointed as Manager of the Investment Sub-Department. A new Deputy Manager was appointed, Xu Jing, from the Investment Department. Under him were three sub-departments: Futures Department Manager, Zheng Guorong, formerly of the Investment Department, in charge of futures work; Securities Department Manager, Zhang Xuping, formerly of the Investment Department, in charge of stock market securities; and Industrial Department Manager, Lin Liqin, formerly of the Investment Department, in charge of industrial investment... Zheng Guorong didn't hear any of the subsequent personnel changes. He slumped in his seat, his face ashen. Among the company's veterans, only a few had truly secured important positions in this reshuffle. Xu Jing and Zhang Xuping were recruited during the company's second expansion, and Lin Liqin had only been with the company for less than a week. Xu Jing and Zhang Xuping have some potential in investment, while Zheng Guorong previously relied on Ye Tianya's covert support. However, everyone could guess that they would rise to their positions. Although he was unhappy, he had nothing to say. Lin Liqin, although a newcomer to the company, had been working outside for many years and had rich experience, especially in industrial investment. She was able to rise to the same level as him, and Zheng Guorong, who had little experience in industrial investment, had nothing to say either. But Zhan Kun's leap to become the president's special assistant made him very resentful. Zhan Kun was usually well-behaved and diligent, and was considered a good worker in the business department, but he hadn't brought much profit to the company. Zheng Guorong's recent performance in the company was such that, apart from Ye Tianya and Yin Chao, no one could compete with him, yet he was now even inferior to Zhan Kun. He couldn't swallow this insult. Even if a president's assistant needed to be good at investment, business, and interpersonal skills, Su Dawei, nominally the department head, was only slightly more capable than the other members of the investment department. Compared to the currently rising star Zheng Guorong, he was far inferior, yet Su Dawei had secured the manager position. Zheng Guorong had initially guessed that because Su Dawei was a senior figure, Gu Letian wouldn't fire him, but at least he could get a deputy manager position. Now, all his hopes were dashed, and he couldn't accept that. Naturally, his face was grim.

Chapter 146 The villa was completed.

Zheng Guorong, his mind filled with resentment, didn't even notice when Gu Letian adjourned the meeting after the personnel minister's announcement. It wasn't until Zhan Kun gently patted him and said, "Guorong, the meeting is over. Are you alright?" that Zheng Guorong snapped out of his daze. Seeing Zhan Kun's concerned expression, he suddenly felt disgusted and sneered, "Thank you for your concern, Assistant Zhan. It's too much trouble for a mere department head like me." After saying this, Zheng Guorong turned and left, leaving Zhan Kun and Su Dawei looking at each other in bewilderment.

They couldn't understand what had gotten into Zheng Guorong. At this moment, Gu Letian came out from behind and said with a smile, "What's wrong? You two don't understand his feelings, do you?" Zhan Kun asked, puzzled, "President Gu, is he dissatisfied with this personnel change?" Gu Letian smiled and said, "Yes, it's a case of the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. With his recent performance, even if he were put in Dawei's position, no one would object. However, he's too impetuous. Even if he has talent in futures trading, he's not suitable for management. If it weren't for the fear of dampening the enthusiasm of the entire company, I wouldn't even want to give him the position of head of the futures department. I hope he can realize his mistake. It's not too late for me to promote him when he's more mature. Sigh, he's too young. He can't get rid of that impulsive temper. Zhan Kun, the person he's probably most dissatisfied with is you. You can't let me down in the future!" "Yes, President Gu, I won't let you down!" Zhan Kun said gratefully.

Gu Letian laughed: "Your performance initially infuriated me when you sold the information about Ye Tianya and the others. However, you admitted your mistake and corrected it. You've actually managed to overcome your impetuousness, which is why I promoted you. Remember, if you're not up to the task, I won't hesitate to send you back to the sales department. Don't be like Zheng Guorong, storming off like that." Zhan Kun quickly said he wouldn't dare. Only then did Gu Letian leave the meeting room to find Zheng Guorong. He clearly understood the emotions of his subordinates, but he wouldn't allow such emotions to affect the company's development. So he went to find Zheng Guorong.

Zheng Guorong was quite hot-tempered, but in Gu Letian's eyes, he was the easiest person to manage. Such people are impulsive, lack decisiveness, and are easily persuaded. When Gu Letian found him, he only said: "If you want to be able to handle things independently, you need to hone your skills down below. I really wanted to promote you, but look at you, getting so angry over such a small matter, so impulsive. How can I entrust a large department to you?" With just a few words, Zheng Guorong was completely subdued and speechless, as obedient as a child who had just received candy. He swore an oath to Gu Letian, promising to be more careful in the future, and was even moved to tears.

Gu Letian hadn't lied to him. If he truly matured, given his performance in the company, promotion would be a matter of course. However, seeing Zheng Guorong so easily moved to tears by a few encouraging words, Gu Letian couldn't help but sigh. It seemed difficult for Zheng Guorong to truly mature.

As a superior, Gu Letian certainly knew how to motivate his subordinates. Just a few words were enough to cheer Zheng Guorong up again. Although he hadn't gained much from this personnel transfer, Gu Letian's words gave him great hope. What made him even happier was that his photo had appeared in the Oriental Evening News. He was famous, famous in the financial world, hailed by the newspaper as the third dragon of China. Upon seeing the newspaper, he almost immediately called Li Lanyu, who was currently teaching students in China.

Unfortunately, no matter how outstanding Zheng Guorong was, someone's brilliance always overshadowed him. On the same page of the Oriental Evening News, Yin Chao's photo was noticeably larger, and the story of Ye Tianya and Xingye took up most of the page. Zheng Guorong only occupied a small section in the lower right corner.

If Ye Tianya and Yin Chao weren't students at Huaxia University, if Ye Tianya wasn't someone Li Lanyu knew, or someone she had once liked, perhaps Li Lanyu would have been happy for Zheng Guorong when she saw him in the news. But now? Of the three people in the newspaper, two were still second-year undergraduates, yet their achievements far surpassed those of Zheng Guorong, a master's graduate from Huaxia University. The most accomplished and famous among them was someone Li Lanyu had once liked. If Xingye hadn't had his accident, and Ye Tianya's disappearance hadn't been portrayed as a suicide pact, Li Lanyu might never have become Zheng Guorong's girlfriend. With Ye Tianya and Yin Chao's brilliance overshadowing him, even if Zheng Guorong were ablaze, he wouldn't shine as brightly as them. Of course, Li Lanyu wouldn't cheer for Zheng Guorong because of this. Because when Zheng Guorong asked her to secretly ask Ye Tianya for help, she subconsciously looked down on him.

Li Lanyu's coldness on the phone felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over Zheng Guorong's head, chilling him to the bone. He slumped into his office chair. He finally realized that Li Lanyu didn't care about his achievements at all. Looking at the lengthy newspaper articles about Ye Tianya, and recalling Li Lanyu's strange expression every time she mentioned Ye Tianya, Zheng Guorong finally understood that Li Lanyu actually cared about Ye Tianya. He angrily tore the articles to shreds, muttering to himself, "You forced me to this, don't blame me!" Zheng Guorong had nothing else now, but he had money. Although not a tycoon, his tens of millions made him a small-time millionaire. With money, he understood some things: some things could be solved with money. With money, nothing was impossible.

The finishing touches on the "End of the Earth" project were complete, but the sheer awe the departing workers had left behind was so profound that news of this idyllic paradise in the secluded harbor quickly spread. The workers' vivid descriptions of the project attracted considerable attention, and out of curiosity, more and more people wanted to see for themselves what this much-discussed project was like. Some workers even secretly called newspaper reporters hoping to earn tips.

However, when these curious onlookers tried to see for themselves, they were stopped by security personnel hired by Lin Siyin. Lin Siyin had ordered the entire "End of the Earth" project sealed off. This idea came from Ye Tianya, who had a deep understanding of human nature. He knew that people, especially the Chinese, are most insatiable when it comes to curiosity, and the more mysterious something is, the more curious and attentive people become. He had Lin Siyin seal off the End of the Earth, simply to keep the curiosity of more people on tenterhooks and attract even more attention.

The End of the Earth was nestled among hills on three sides; apart from the view from the sea, the other three sides only revealed the trees on the hills. As the security guards at the seal-off told the curious onlookers, the manor was undergoing final renovations, but only Ye Tianya was inside, installing the magic crystals needed for the protective shield. The magic crystals were being installed in the surrounding forest, which was arranged into an array. After Ye Tianya finished, he floated up invisibly, circled once above the End of the Earth, and looked down at the building below—a magnificent palace surrounded by lush trees, with winding paths winding through the woods and two octagonal pavilions scattered along the paths. Under the dazzling lights, the magnificent palace shimmered with captivating brilliance, its sky-blue glass reflecting a soft, ethereal glow. Emerald lawns, vibrant gardens, several fountains of varying sizes scattered throughout, and a large, shimmering swimming pool…

The lush trees on three surrounding hills embraced the breathtakingly beautiful palace, a serene and ethereal beauty, like a great mother's warm embrace. An overwhelming sense of warmth and security left Ye Tianya momentarily speechless, even as he stood in the sky.

There was one more effect Ye Tianya hadn't yet activated: the lighting system. After descending from the sky, Ye Tianya turned on the power button. The instant he pressed the button, seven rainbows rose from within the four surrounding walls, tracing beautiful arcs in the air before converging atop the palace. This was Ye Tianya's proudest moment; the point where the seven rainbows met emitted a white light, like a small sun in the sky, illuminating the celestial palace below. This was his masterpiece, cleverly designed using the calculation formulas in the Lisi system and the principle of light interference.

As seven rainbows rose above the villa, some curious people, who were being held back by security guards, looked up and were instantly captivated by the seven rainbows. They stared blankly at the sky.

Chapter 147: A Sensation in the Real World .

Rainbows…seven…rainbows are only visible in clear skies after rain, and even then, only one or two are usually visible. But now, seven rainbows appeared simultaneously, converging in the air. This dreamlike scene left the mesmerized people murmuring and yearning. Even the security guards who had been holding them back couldn't bring themselves to turn back after a single glance. The first to react began pressing the shutter button on their cameras. Meanwhile, Ye Tianya had reached a spherical decoration on the villa's roof, channeling his magic into it and activating the protective shield.

As the protective shield activated, the seven rainbows instantly brightened, their light also radiating in seven rainbows, perfectly coinciding with the rainbow from the lighting project. Others couldn't see it, but Ye Tianya could sense it. A hemispherical layer of transparent energy had appeared above the entire resort, protecting it flawlessly. "

Xiao Ye, I kept my promise! This will be our home, a home for you and for me." Ye Tianya, now airborne again, looked down at the resort and murmured to himself before disappearing from the sky.

After the lighting project was activated, the resort's security forces steadily increased, but the security team still repeatedly requested assistance from Lin Sijian, because they had encountered the world's most curious people—reporters.

Lin Siyin appeared in Shangri-La once again.

"Tianya, they can't hold on anymore. Photos of those seven rainbows are everywhere online. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of people taking pictures outside Tianya every day. We've increased our security guards to over three hundred. And the company reception has received over a hundred interview requests from reporters," Lin Siyin anxiously reported to Ye Tianya.

Ye Tianya calmly asked, "How are your preparations for the housing fair going?" Lin Siyin's face darkened at the mention of the housing fair. "We didn't get a good booth. Our booth was placed in the innermost corner of the hall. It's uncertain whether anyone will even go there. This must be Qin Ting's doing again. The organizer's manager has had a lot of dealings with Qin Ting." Ye Tianya suddenly laughed. "That's good. Let them make a scene. If we shift the focus of the housing fair to Tianya Real Estate, what can Qin Ting do even if he gets the best and most prominent booth?" Now I'm thinking about how to force the infrastructure department to take the initiative to build that road to the ends of the earth for us and install water and electricity there. Lin Siyin's eyes lit up, and she asked happily, "Tianya, do you have a good plan?" Ye Tianya smiled and said, "That's why I told you not to give any interviews to reporters for so long. If you give interviews too early, the news will leak out too quickly, and some newspapers will get exclusive coverage. Wouldn't that have the same publicity effect as having hundreds of reporters interviewing us now?" Lin Siyin nodded and said, "I know that, but how can we force the infrastructure department to agree to build the road?" Ye Tianya smiled confidently and said, "If it's just a domestic issue, they might not agree to build the road. Go back today and organize a press conference. Prepare translators and other personnel. There might be many foreign friends coming." "That's all?" Lin Siyin looked at Ye Tianya in confusion.

Ye Tianya smiled and said, "That's all, but the press conference will be held in three days." Lin Siyin asked in confusion, "But that won't force the infrastructure department to agree to build the road at all." "Three days later?" The housing fair is in five days! Domestically, it's obviously not going to work out. That's why I asked you to hold a reception in three days. I've already sent our pictures and materials to editors of well-known websites and newspapers both domestically and internationally. Our press conference will be held at the same time as the housing fair. Hmph, I'm going to move the main venue of the housing fair to Tianya Real Estate, not the main hall! Prepare to receive our foreign friends, especially those wealthy foreigners. They are the real leverage to force the infrastructure department to build the road. Qin Ting? Let's let them collude and reap what they sow. Ye Tianya said with a cold smile.

Lin Siyin's eyes lit up, and she looked at Ye Tianya in surprise. Suddenly, her face flushed slightly, and she said, "Tianya, you're so kind!" Me? Me kind? Ye Tianya looked at Lin Siyin in confusion.

Lin Siyin blushed and said sweetly, "Thank you for helping me deal with Qin Ting." Ye Tianya shook his head and smiled, saying, "You deserve the most credit here. Don't worry, once Tianya Real Estate grows stronger, you can deal with Qin Ting however you want. Alright, you've worked hard enough for Tianya Real Estate; you've even lost weight. Go back and rest early. Have your people prepare for the reception. Go back and relax for three days. Three days later, it will be the time for our Tianya Real Estate to take off." Hearing Ye Tianya's concerned voice and his words about "our Tianya Real Estate," Lin Siyin felt secretly delighted. But she couldn't rest peacefully. The next morning, after arriving at the company, she received a report from the reception office that they had received interview requests from over fifty foreign media outlets.

"So fast!" Lin Siyin muttered to herself before telling the head of the reception office, "Notify all the reporters who have made appointments to cancel all interviews. The company will hold a press conference in three days." After the head of the reception office left, Lin Siyin called her assistant, Ren Jing, and said, "Xiao Jing, notify the real estate company to stop setting up the exhibition booth for the housing fair." "Also, organize a press conference in three days. Maintain constant contact with the reception office, arrange translations according to the nationalities of the journalists, and determine the venue size based on the number of journalists." "Mr. Lin, are we not attending the housing fair?" the assistant asked in surprise.

Lin Siyin suddenly remembered Ye Tianya's bold words and said, "What can we exhibit in the space the housing fair has given us? I want to move the main venue of the housing fair to Tianya Real Estate, not the main hall!" Tianya Real Estate was busy but organized, but the real estate industry around the world, especially those specializing in villa development, was in chaos. After Ye Tianya posted pictures of Tianya's property on various websites, it immediately attracted the attention of the media, appearing on website homepages and newspaper front pages—simply because it could attract readers' attention and increase their click-through rates and circulation. No one cared how Ye Tianya knew their email addresses. With Lisi's abilities, she could easily find out their private phone numbers, let alone email addresses.

As images of the ends of the earth swept the world like a typhoon and tsunami, a virtual auction website suddenly appeared online. Ye Tianya became curious about this website, and to his utter astonishment, not only were there bids, but the bidders were also actively revealing their identities, hoping to buy the ends of the earth at a certain price.

Ye Tianya didn't pay much attention to the names of the bidders, only focusing on the rapidly increasing bids. The first bid was ten million, which immediately drew criticism, with people saying he didn't understand the market; that a celebrity's mansion in Hong Kong cost twenty-four million, and ten million for the ends of the earth was simply delusional. After

the criticism, the second bid reached fifty million, and then the number skyrocketed, jumping to eighty million, and finally to one hundred million.

As the bidding progressed, more and more people joined in, driving the price higher and higher, exceeding two hundred million. Ye Tianya gradually realized that some people were just making a fuss, so he stopped paying attention and closed his laptop, turning to Xingye, who was curiously browsing the webpage on the desktop computer next to him.

Xingye was looking at pictures of the End of the World online. Seeing Ye Tianya looking at her, she turned her head and smiled, "Brother, is this the place you took me to the other day?" Ye Tianya walked over, picked Xingye up, and smiled, "Yes, isn't this house beautiful?" Xingye nodded eagerly, "Beautiful! It's the house that Sister Siyin built, it's so beautiful!" Ye Tianya smiled, "Sister Siyin built this house, do you know who she built it for?" Xingye gently shook her head, "I don't know." Ye Tianya said happily, "Brother asked Sister Siyin to build this house for me, okay? We'll move in and live here in a few days, alright?" "Really? Brother, is this house really ours? Can we really live here?" Xingye looked at Ye Tianya in surprise.

Ye Tianya laughed: "Of course it's true, Xiaoye, are you happy?" "Happy, Xiaoye is so happy, brother, you're so good!" Xingye kissed Ye Tianya on the cheek, cheering and laughing. Suddenly, she stopped, reached out and touched Ye Tianya's chin, laughing: "Brother, your beard is growing again, it's tickling Xiaoye!" Ye Tianya chuckled and deliberately rubbed his chin against Xingye's face, making Xingye giggle. Suddenly, Ye Tianya felt a magical fluctuation coming from afar; it was a distress signal from the wooden stick Ye Tianya had given Xingye before.

Chapter 148 Lan Yu's Accident

Ye Tianya was teasing Xingye with his stubble. Suddenly, Ye Tianya felt a magical fluctuation coming from afar; it was a distress signal from the wooden stick Ye Tianya had given Xingye before. He remembered giving Lin Siyin one of these signal sticks, and Li Lanyu had also wanted one. However, Ye Tianya thought it might be because Lin Siyin was in trouble, as Lin Siyin had recently become a formidable rival to many companies in the real estate industry. He was worried that someone might harm her. "

Xiao Ye, you stay here and quietly browse the internet to see what our future home will be like. I'm going to the bathroom, okay?" Ye Tianya put Xing Ye down and said.

Xing Ye obediently nodded, and Ye Tianya quickly left Xing Ye's room, went into his own room, locked the door from the inside, and disappeared.

※※※ After work, Li Lanyu finally had some free time and accepted Zheng Guorong's invitation to a date. She had thought a lot about it lately. Being with Zheng Guorong was torture for both of them. She realized she didn't like him at all, even hated him, or rather, looked down on him. She planned to talk to him clearly tonight.

But during dinner, Li Lanyu tried to speak several times, but Zheng Guorong interrupted her each time. Only after leaving the restaurant did Li Lanyu speak again: "Guorong, I have something I want to tell you." Zheng Guorong smiled: "Okay, let's go this way. We'll reach the school gate after we go through this alley. Let's talk as we walk." Li Lanyu nodded and followed Zheng Guorong into the alleyway he pointed to.

"Guorong, I've thought about it for a long time, and I've realized that we're simply..." Li Lanyu was about to speak again, but the words caught in her throat. She saw three thugs blocking her way, their eyes gleaming with lust. Her heart tightened, and she wanted to tell Zheng Guorong to move aside, but when she turned around, three similarly dressed young men blocked her path as well.

"What do you want?" Zheng Guorong shouted sharply, shielding Li Lanyu behind him. "

What do you think? Isn't it obvious? Leave the woman here and you can go!" the thug said with a lewd grin. Seeing Zheng Guorong's fearless demeanor, Li Lanyu's disgust towards him lessened slightly, but Zheng Guorong was no match for six thugs. In desperation, Li Lanyu cried out for help. Hearing her cry, the six thugs panicked and pounced on Zheng Guorong and Li Lanyu. Zheng Guorong charged forward, but one of the thugs punched him unconscious.

Seeing Zheng Guorong knocked down, Li Lanyu rushed over to check on him. However, she was grabbed by six thugs. As she tried to struggle and cry for help, a large towel was stuffed into her mouth, her hands and feet were bound with duct tape, and then she was slung over a large sack. Inside, she tried to scream but couldn't, struggled but couldn't move, and despair filled her heart. Suddenly, she heard a scream from outside the sack—it was Zheng Guorong's voice. Then came the thugs' mocking voices: "Kid, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't point and we can't understand you. We just lightly hit you and you pretended to faint, you really played along well, hahaha. Why didn't you tell us your girlfriend was so beautiful when you paid us? Now we regret it and have decided to return your money. This woman, hehe, someone's offering an even higher price for her." Li Lanyu, trapped in the sack, was deeply shaken. She wasn't stupid; she'd gleaned something from the thug's words, but wasn't certain. The next sound confirmed her suspicions completely. It was Zheng Guorong's voice: "You broke your promise! We agreed I'd give you 100,000, and you… Ah…" Then came another scream from Zheng Guorong.

Li Lanyu finally understood. It was all a charade, paid for by Zheng Guorong, but he hadn't expected his hired men to betray him because another buyer offered a higher price. Li Lanyu suddenly felt utterly pathetic. She struggled desperately in the sack, but it was all in vain.

She felt herself being lifted up, as if being put into a car, and then she felt the car start moving. Filled with despair and fear, she didn't know where she was being taken. She desperately tried to think of a way to escape. Suddenly, she felt something like a car door handle; her hands were tied behind her back. As the car turned right, she rolled over, bracing her back against the door. She tentatively reached for the handle with her bound hands inside the sack.

Finally, she managed to grab it through the sack. Suddenly, she heard the thugs in front of her talking: "Young Master Chen wants us to take him to the 'Fengyue Nightclub.' Turn left from here; it's about two hundred meters ahead." Li Lanyu heard a commotion outside, knowing this was a busy area. She knew that if she could jump out of the car, these thugs wouldn't dare try to carry her in front of everyone. Hearing "turn left," she immediately felt her body being pressed against the car door as the turn occurred.

Without hesitation, Li Lanyu pried open the car door through the sack. Due to the turn and the car's speed, she was thrown out of the car as the vehicle turned. She landed with a thud, skidding across the ground for a considerable distance.

Screech—after Li Lanyu hit the ground, oncoming cars braked sharply, nearly hitting her. She felt a sharp pain in her face, and her arms and legs were also throbbing with pain that almost made her faint. But she knew she had to struggle. If she didn't move, she would be mistaken for cargo, and those thugs would dare to get out of their car and retrieve her. She had to struggle to show the people outside that the sack contained a person, not cargo.

Li Lanyu didn't know that when she hit the ground, a small piece of wood she had been carrying in her pocket broke in two.

Li Lanyu's last struggle inside the sack finally paid off. Someone screamed, "There's a person in the sack! There's someone in the sack!" Then, Li Lanyu heard the sound of a car accelerating. She knew the thugs had escaped, but the pain in her face and legs made her faint.

Just as she collapsed, a white figure appeared behind the crowd. Everyone was focused on the sack, but no one noticed how he appeared. He pushed through the crowd, rushed to the middle of the road, and went straight to the sack, where someone was already untying it.

"Teacher Li!" Ye Tianya exclaimed when he saw the person revealed after the sack was opened. "

Is that your teacher? She's badly injured. You should take her to the hospital quickly!" A driver who had stopped his car said. Someone recognized the injured person, and they were naturally inclined to avoid trouble. If they couldn't find someone to pay for the emergency treatment, they might have to spend money themselves.

Ye Tianya quickly picked up Li Lanyu, and when he saw that half of her face was covered in blood and gore, his heart ached terribly. "Which driver can give me a ride?" Ye Tianya asked, standing up and looking at the drivers parked around him.

Almost all the drivers present turned away, pretending not to hear. Ye Tianya was secretly furious and said, "Ten thousand yuan to take me to the hospital. Who will do it?" "I'll go... I'll take you. My car is fast... My car is brand new..." Ye Tianya sneered inwardly. This is human nature...

Ye Tianya carried Li Lanyu into a car that looked quite new. Under the cover of Li Lanyu's body, he took out ten thousand yuan from his ring and threw it at the driver in front, saying, "Drive faster, or you won't get a penny." The driver did drive fast along the way. Ye Tianya ignored the driver in front and used his spiritual power to examine Li Lanyu's body. In addition to the disfigurement of the left side of her face, her left arm and thigh were fractured. There was also a large area of abrasions on her left thigh, and it was a serious injury. A thick layer of flesh on that side had been scraped off when she was thrown out of the car.

Ye Tianya didn't have time to worry about Li Lanyu's external injuries. He had to heal her bone injuries before reaching the hospital. Otherwise, with modern medical technology, she would definitely need surgery, and then have internal splints and nuts put on her bones, which would be quite a ordeal for her.

Along the way, Ye Tianya expended a lot of his life force and mental energy to heal and repair Li Lanyu's bones until he was sure that no cracks would be visible on X-rays. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief. Just as he was preparing to repair her external injuries as much as possible, the car arrived at the hospital. Ye Tianya had no choice but to take Li Lanyu to the emergency room.

Chapter 149 A Different Kind of Advice

Ye Tianya dared not stay outside for too long. If Xu Keming discovered that he had the ability to disappear into the room by teleportation, he would be in trouble. He had to pay the relevant fees for Li Lanyu's emergency surgery and return to his room in the Shangri-La.

Fortunately, Long Lan and the others did not notice anything amiss. Just as Ye Tianya came out of the room, Xingye came out of the room at the door. Long Lan: Sister Lan, is my brother still in the toilet? Xingye can walk on her own now, just a little slowly. Ye Tianya secretly rejoiced that he had returned in time; otherwise, if Xingye had asked, Long Lan would have discovered the problem when she knocked on his door. He quickly smiled and said, "Xiaoye, your brother is here!" Xingye turned her head and, seeing Ye Tianya, happily exclaimed, "Brother, I just saw a website where someone offered over 3 billion to buy our house!" "Your house? 3 billion?" Long Lan and Long Zhu looked at Xingye in surprise, then at Ye Tianya.

Ye Tianya smiled and said, "Xiaoye is talking about the End of the Earth. I funded the construction of the house by Lin Siyin, and we're moving there soon. Long Lan and the others will follow eventually, so Ye Tianya won't hide it from them." "

The End of the Earth in the newspaper? The beach we went to last time?" Long Lan asked excitedly.

Ye Tianya smiled and said, "Yes, that's my and Xiaoye's house. Don't let this get out, or you'll be responsible for any trouble that arises." Long Lan said happily, "Don't worry, we know! That's wonderful! We can live at the ends of the earth now, isn't that great? Being Xiao Ye's nanny isn't so bad after all." Ye Tianya shook his head and smiled wryly. Even Long Lan and Long Zhu longed for the ends of the earth. After all, someone had already offered 3 billion there, and it was very likely that the price would rise further.

Looking at Long Lan and Long Zhu's expressions, Ye Tianya knew they were happy about living near the ends of the earth. But he had no time to care about their happiness; his mind was preoccupied with Li Lanyu's injuries. He couldn't go to the hospital on his own; he had to receive a call from someone else, otherwise Xu Keming would suspect how he knew Li Lanyu was injured.

Ye Tianya waited anxiously at home all night, finally receiving a call from Lin Siyin the next morning, saying that Li Lanyu was injured and hospitalized, and urging him to come quickly. Ye Tianya hadn't revealed his true identity when rescuing Li Lanyu; he was wearing sunglasses. He wasn't worried about being recognized, and even if someone did, as long as he denied it, Xu Keming wouldn't suspect anything, because Long Lan and Long Zhu could testify that he hadn't left home the previous night.

When Ye Tianya arrived at the hospital, Lin Siyin was already there, frantically pacing around. "

Tianya, you're finally here! Xiaoyu hasn't seen anyone, she's throwing things around inside, and she's very emotionally unstable." Lin Siyin rushed up to Ye Tianya and said anxiously. She paused, surprised to see Xu Keming following behind him.

Ye Tianya knew Lin Siyin was a seasoned businesswoman who needed introductions when meeting friends of friends, so he introduced Xu Keming: "This is my friend, Xu Keming. He usually drives for me." He then said to Xu Keming, "This is Miss Lin Siyin!" Xu Keming, of course, recognized Lin Siyin. No one who had entered or left Ye Tianya's residence in Shangri-La had escaped his investigation. However, Lin Siyin had only ever seen Long Lan and Long Zhu in and out of Shangri-La, not Xu Keming, hence her unfamiliarity.

Lin Siyin understood the implication in Ye Tianya's words. The person driving was obviously a driver; calling him a friend was just for appearances. Lin Siyin immediately sensed the hidden meaning. Since he was a driver, yet called a friend for appearances' sake, it meant Xu Keming wasn't just Ye Tianya's driver. Before clarifying their relationship, Lin Siyin dared not say anything beyond friendship. She decided not to mention anything about the company, but she didn't have time for that now, as she was worried about Li Lanyu in the ward, who was still telling the nurse to get out. "

Where are Teacher Li's family?" Ye Tianya asked Lin Siyin. "

They're from Chongqing. Their school has already called to inform them, but they can't get here yet. When I went in just now, she ignored me and kicked me out. She threw away everything on the bed that could be thrown away. Her face… her face is ruined…" Lin Siyin said, tears welling up in her eyes, heartbroken for Li Lanyu.

Ye Tianya comforted her, "Don't worry, medical technology is very advanced now. I think there should be a way to help her recover. Wait here for a moment, I'll go in and see if I can persuade her to calm down and accept treatment." Ye Tianya walked towards the ward door, and only when he got closer did he notice that the vice dean of Huaxia's online academy and the grade leader were there. Ye Tianya looked around but didn't see Zheng Guorong, and his heart sank. From inside the ward came Li Lanyu's cries and shouts: "Get out! Get out! I don't want to see anyone! I don't want your treatment! Get out!" Ye Tianya first greeted the academy leaders and was about to push the door open when the grade leader quickly stopped him, saying, "Ye Tianya, at this time, you shouldn't go in and cause trouble." Ye Tianya glanced back at him and smiled, "Teacher, I'm no longer a student of the online academy, but Teacher Li is still my teacher. In other words, she's a friend of a friend, which means she's my friend too. I think it's alright if I go in and see her." The grade leader was about to stop him when Li Lanyu, hearing Ye Tianya's voice, immediately called out, "Tianya, don't come in! I'm in this state, I can't show my face to anyone! Please don't come in!" Ye Tianya ignored her and pushed open the door, walking in amidst the surprised gazes of the two academy leaders. "

I said I don't want to see you! Get out! Get out now!" Seeing Ye Tianya enter, Li Lanyu immediately turned her back to him, not letting him see his injured side of his face. Ye Tianya frowned when he saw the blankets and pillows scattered on the floor. He had booked a special ward for Li Lanyu last night, and thankfully the nurses there were very helpful; otherwise, they might have been furious. Two nurses were about to change Li Lanyu's dressings when she knocked over the tray, scattering everything on the floor. The two nurses were busy picking things up.

Ye Tianya said to the two nurses, "You two can go out now. Picking them up now will just lead to more throwing. Wait until she's done throwing things, then you can come back and save yourself the trouble. Oh, and by the way, could you also open that window for her? The patient might try to kill herself because she's lost her pretty face. She's injured; it's too much trouble for her to jump out of the window. It's good for us able-bodied people to help her; it's a pleasure to help others." Everyone outside could hear Ye Tianya's words, including Lin Siyin and the school leaders. Almost simultaneously, they shouted from outside the door: "Ye Tianya (Tianya), how can you talk like that?" Ye Tianya ignored them and suddenly yelled at the two nurses who were trying to push him out, mistaking him for a troublemaker: "Didn't you hear me tell you to open the window? Didn't you hear me tell you to get out? Someone doesn't want to live anymore. She can't live without her face. She wants her wounds to fester even deeper. She doesn't want treatment herself, so why are you all in such a hurry? Get out, get out! And bring her some poison, rope, or a knife!" Ye Tianya's sudden roar startled the two nurses inside, causing them to take several steps back. Even the people outside were startled. Li Lanyu on the bed was stunned, forgetting Ye Tianya's continuous roar. The two nurses were intimidated by Ye Tianya's imposing aura and involuntarily retreated. Ye Tianya walked to the door, glanced at the people outside, and said to Xu Keming, "Brother Xu, guard the door. I'm not coming out, don't let anyone come in and disturb me!" "Ye Tianya, what are you doing!" The grade leader reached out and pushed the door that Ye Tianya was about to close, looking at Ye Tianya warily.

Ye Tianya ignored him, glanced at Xu Keming, and Xu Keming immediately stepped forward, pulled the grade leader aside, and blocked the doorway. Only then did Ye Tianya close the door, and at the same time, he created a soundproof barrier around the room. He then picked up the pillow on the floor, picked up the quilt, and placed it next to the still dazed Li Lanyu, saying, "Are you still throwing things away? These two things aren't enough to throw away, I'll pick up some more things for you."

Chapter 150 Lanyu's Confession

Li Lanyu didn't expect that Ye Tianya would not only not comfort her after coming in, but would also make sarcastic remarks and ridicule her. Anger welled up inside him, and he roared, "What are you doing here? Did you come just to mock me? Just to show off your manliness by yelling at the nurse? Or do you think you're someone I have to be here for?" Though he was roaring, he stopped throwing things.

Ye Tianya looked at Li Lanyu's face, half of which was congealed blood, yet still a gruesome and gruesome mess. A chill ran down his spine. He opened the blanket and covered her, then gently lifted her head to place a pillow under it. Li Lanyu struggled free and shouted angrily, "Get out! I don't want your help! Get out! I hate you! You men are all the same! Get out! Who do you think you are? Just because you taught my class a few days? I've taught many more students for much longer; it's none of your business to care. Don't you want me dead? Someone like me is an eyesore, ruining your mood. What are you even here for? Get out!" Li Lanyu angrily tried to throw the pillow again, but Ye Tianya grew increasingly irritated: "Enough! Do you think I have so much free time that I come here to toy with you? Do you think I have nothing better to do than mock you? Do you think I have to come see you just because I studied in your class for a few days? I came to see if the Li Lanyu who used to joke and play with me was planning to refuse treatment and die. I came to confirm if there would still be anyone to joke and banter with in the future. I'm afraid that the Li Lanyu who could make me happy through banter is dead, and there will be no one left to argue with me. Are these reasons enough? Do you want me to add more? I'm an ugly monster now, an ugly monster that everyone hates. Do you think I'm a three-year-old? You want to have fun arguing with an ugly monster? Nobody would believe that! I don't want your pity, I don't want your sympathy. I have nothing left, nothing left at all..." Li Lanyu's voice changed from anger to sobs, and she began to cry.

Ye Tianya sat on the edge of the bed and said softly, "Teacher, I'm not here to pity you or sympathize with you. I just want to tell you that you must remember you are a master's student in network engineering at Huaxia University. Your degree, the knowledge in your head, and your perfect personality—none of these have anything to do with your face. If a master's student at Huaxia University got in based on their looks, wouldn't that make the whole world laugh? In my eyes, no matter what your face looks like, you are still the strong Li Lanyu, the Li Lanyu who likes to argue with me, the Li Lanyu who urges me to run but then cries in my arms in fear. You are you. They say beauty is a curse. If I'm not mistaken, your injury this time must be because of your face. Besides bringing you countless lustful glances from men, what else has this face brought you? Happiness? Or disaster!"... Ye Tianya's words gradually calmed Li Lanyu down. Suddenly, she thought of something and looked at Ye Tianya in surprise. "

How did you know? My accident was because..." Li Lanyu asked Ye Tianya in surprise.

Seeing Li Lanyu soften, Ye Tianya put the pillow she had pulled out back under her head before asking, "Tell me, where's that wooden strip I gave you before? The one you wanted when I gave it to Sister Siyin last time?" Li Lanyu thought for a moment and said, "It's in my pocket, over there." "Why are you asking about it?" Li Lanyu pointed to a bag in the corner of the ward, which must have been her clothes that had been changed.

Ye Tianya asked again, "Did you break it when the accident happened?" "I didn't... I don't know if I broke it when I fell off the car," Li Lanyu said after thinking for a moment. Ye Tianya didn't care about that anymore and went over to rummage through her clothes for a while. When he found a broken wooden strip inside, he finally understood why he had sensed the magical fluctuations.

He took the wooden stick and handed it to Li Lanyu, saying, "I brought you to the hospital last night. When this stick broke, I sensed a special information on it, which led me to the location of your accident. You were covered in a sack, so I guessed someone was after your beauty. I think I was right." Li Lanyu recalled her experience from the previous night, a flash of intense pain crossing her face. For a moment, she forgot to ask Ye Tianya about his special ability. Ye Tianya could see the inner turmoil within her. After a long while, she calmed down slightly and quietly recounted her ordeal to Ye Tianya. When Ye Tianya heard that Zheng Guorong had actually paid thugs, the small wooden stick in his hand split into four pieces, then eight, and finally turned into a pile of powder.

After Li Lanyu finished speaking, her face was surprisingly calm as she asked, "Don't you find it ridiculous?" Who would believe that her boyfriend would collude with thugs to kidnap his girlfriend? I know it's all because I never let him touch me, that's why he resorted to such a shameless tactic. Tianya, do you know why I never let him touch me? ...It's because of you. Because every time he tries to touch me, I think of you! Ye Tianya looked at Li Lanyu in surprise, speechless for a moment. He had always taken the email Li Lanyu sent him as a joke, never expecting her to be serious.

Seeing Ye Tianya's surprised expression, Li Lanyu suddenly gave a self-deprecating laugh, pulling at the wound on her left cheek, making it look somewhat grotesque. After laughing, Li Lanyu said self-deprecatingly: "Were you scared? Being liked by such an ugly monster, don't you feel like throwing up?" Ye Tianya gently shook his head and said: "All along, I thought your letter was a joke, but I never expected that in your eyes, I, Ye Tianya, am just someone who likes appearances. Isn't that right? Aren't all men the same?" "You're a womanizer, otherwise, why would Zheng Guorong go to such lengths to possess me? And that Chen Shao they're talking about, humph, you're absolutely right, beauty is a curse. If it weren't for my face, would so many people like me? You dare say you men aren't womanizers? Should we let that grade leader outside come in and have him take a look at me, see if he'll still send me flowers in the future?" Li Lanyu stared at Ye Tianya, as if trying to force him to admit it.

Ye Tianya didn't answer her, but looked into her eyes and said: "So, you also hate your former pretty face? In other words, if someone could cure your face and restore it to its original state, you wouldn't accept treatment?" "Hmph, is that possible? Do you think I'm as easy to fool as a three-year-old? Look at my face, look closely, you can already see the bone..." Li Lanyu became agitated again. "

What if I guarantee your face can be restored?" Ye Tianya calmly stared into Li Lanyu's eyes and said.

Li Lanyu suddenly froze, looking at Ye Tianya in surprise. In his eyes, she saw nothing but sincerity; those eyes made her believe that not a single word uttered from his mouth was false. "

If you can restore my face, I, Li Lanyu, am willing to be yours for life…!" Ye Tianya was startled. Before Li Lanyu could finish the last word—he knew Li Lanyu was always very forthright—he couldn't be sure what she would say. He quickly interrupted her, "Don't speak too soon, or you'll regret it. Stay in the hospital for two days. After your parents come, I'll pick you up. Remember, I guarantee you'll fully recover." Ye Tianya finished speaking and was about to walk out when Li Lanyu suddenly called out from behind, "Tianya… Hmm?" Ye Tianya turned to look at Li Lanyu.

There was no more doubt in Li Lanyu's eyes. She completely believed Ye Tianya could restore her face; more than anything, it was her desire to recover that drove her to believe in Ye Tianya.

"I'll wait for you to pick me up!" Li Lanyu only said this after Ye Tianya turned around.

Ye Tianya smiled at her and said, "That depends on whether you've attempted suicide by jumping off a building before I come to pick you up..." He then removed the soundproof barrier, opened the door, and went out. There

were many more people outside. Ye Tianya only recognized a few of them as teachers from the academy, but Xu Keming blocked them at the door. The two nurses were still at the door, and a doctor was arguing with Xu Keming in front of them, demanding that he move aside.

Ye Tianya was inside for more than ten minutes, and the people outside couldn't hear anything. They could only anxiously wait outside, but Xu Keming wouldn't let them in. The standoff continued until Ye Tianya opened the door.

Chapter 151: The Balance Reappears

. "Doctor, I've stabilized the patient's emotions. Please proceed with the treatment!" After calmly finishing his sentence, Ye Tianya said to Lin Siyin, "Siyin, after the doctor finishes applying the medicine, go in and check on her again. She won't cause any more trouble. Your company must be very busy, so don't bother her for too long. I'll come see her when I have time." Lin Siyin understood that Ye Tianya was telling her that he was there and that she should go back to the company as soon as possible so as not to delay the important housing fair. Nodding in understanding, Ye Tianya quickly left the hospital with Xu Keming. Ye Tianya was filled with overwhelming anger at this moment. Although he didn't show it, he was too lazy to greet the teachers who were surprised that Ye Tianya had calmed Li Lanyu down, and hurriedly left. "

Brother Ye, it's me, Xiao Yezi!" After returning to his room at the Shangri-La, Ye Tianya called Ye Xiao on his phone. "

Xiao Yezi, it's been a long time. When are you coming over for a few drinks?" Ye Xiao laughed as soon as he opened his mouth.

Ye Tianya was in no mood for drinking. After a few polite words, he said, "Brother Ye, I'd like to ask Shadow Spy for a favor..." Before Ye Tianya could finish, Night Owl interrupted, "Little Ye, if you keep being so polite, I'm going to hang up. Just say what you need. If you keep being so polite with your brother, don't ever contact me again." Ye Tianya quickly laughed, "Yes, yes, I know I was wrong. I wanted to ask you to investigate. Last night, at..." Ye Tianya recounted the location and details of Li Lanyu's incident to Night Owl. After Night Owl assured him there were no problems, he hung up and went to notify Black Hawk to investigate. With a gloomy expression, Ye Tianya called Yin Chao, who lived at the school. "

Boss, I'm not going home tonight. I'm going to spend time with Sisi." Yin Chao had just finished class and, when he received Ye Tianya's call, thought he was being asked if he wanted Ye Tianya to wait for him after class. But Ye Tianya's voice sounded strange: "Yin Chao, how long do you plan to take with Zheng Guorong's matter?" "What's wrong, boss?" Yin Chao noticed the hidden anger in Ye Tianya's voice and asked, puzzled.

Ye Tianya said coldly, "I want you to force Zheng Guorong onto the path he should take as soon as possible. If you go any further, I won't call you insidious." Yin Chao was stunned for a moment and asked, "Boss, did something happen?" He remembered that Ye Tianya had advised him not to go too far before, but now he was telling him to go even further. He knew that something must have happened.

Ye Tianya controlled his emotions and told Yin Chao everything that had happened to Li Lanyu.

After listening, Yin Chao slammed the book in his hand on the table, immediately attracting the attention of the surrounding classmates, but he didn't care at all and said, "I know what to do. I'm going to play him until he breaks down!" "Okay, Zheng Guorong is yours to deal with. I just want to see the result. You can enjoy the process yourself!" Ye Tianya said coldly. Yin Chao immediately said, "Don't worry, just wait and see. Class is about to start. You didn't come to class again today?" Ye Tianya had no mood to go to class. He hadn't been to class for several days. He had been organizing the villa design drawings on Lisi's hard drive and had asked the class for a few days off.

After hanging up, Yin Chao saw the surprised looks on the faces of his classmates who were still staring at him curiously, not understanding why this usually jovial celebrity was so angry. Yin Chao smiled at his classmates and said, "It's alright, everyone, continue with your work!" The students in his class were all software engineering students, and they didn't pay much attention to things outside the software industry. No one knew that Yin Chao was doing part-time work outside of school, and even fewer people on campus knew about Huaxia Shuanglong. Students were more interested in obvious gossip, and the financial section of the newspaper was usually just something they used to sit on. "

Yin Chao, are we still meeting this afternoon?" a boy next to Yin Chao asked. This was a member of an interest development group he had formed. At Ye Tianya's suggestion, he had started paying attention to some classmates who showed potential in software and had already begun researching software themselves in their second year of university. Ye Tianya wanted him to build his own team as soon as possible to prepare for his software company.

Although Yin Chao's development group had only developed some small games and software so far, he believed that they were at the forefront among their peers or even their classmates. Because of his financial backing, he had recently contacted several senior students preparing for postgraduate entrance exams. If they succeeded, they would stay at the university and join his group, significantly increasing its strength.

They met almost every afternoon, not physically, but individually at their computers to communicate online and collaborate on development. However, Yin Chao had no desire to meet today. Although he wasn't familiar with Li Lanyu, he disliked Zheng Guorong, and this incident only intensified his hatred. He wanted nothing more than to torment Zheng Guorong to death. But Yin Chao refrained from immediately killing him; instead, he planned to play him like a monkey until he collapsed.

The night in S City felt unsettling. People rushing about their lives weaved through the affluent yet leisurely crowds, while restless young people sought thrills at their usual haunts. Shi Hongwu, nicknamed "Big Chicken," was different from these thrill-seeking youths; he was someone who catered specifically to them. Of course, it was all for his boss—money.

For two days in a row, he and his five brothers hadn't gone out to work. They'd been hiding in a dilapidated house in the suburbs, afraid to go out. In their line of work, that was called "laying low." "

Ah Ping, what's the situation outside? Has Young Master Chen sorted things out?" Big Chicken asked nervously as his friend brought food. The young man called Ah Ping placed the food on the table and then took out six stacks of cash from his bag and placed them on the table as well. He said, "Young Master Chen said that the woman hasn't reported the case yet, but things have gotten a bit out of hand and have attracted the attention of Principal Hua Xia. Young Master Chen said that you guys messed things up and you can't implicate him. You need to take this money and leave S City. He'll make arrangements for you and send you to Hong Kong." "Damn it, who knows if that woman would jump off the train like that? Ah Ping, who exactly is that woman? Isn't she just a female graduate student?" Big Chicken said regretfully, "Didn't Young Master Chen say that her family didn't have any influence?"

Ah Ping said, "Even Young Master Chen didn't expect this. Stop talking, you guys should eat and leave quickly, otherwise if someone finds you here, you won't be able to leave." "It's too late, no one can leave!" A voice appeared at the door. The door was pushed open, and the seven inside noticed a dark figure in a black trench coat and sunglasses outside. The voice was icy, making all seven shiver. "

Who are you?" Big Chicken asked in terror.

"Me? Tianping! Ever heard of me?" The dark figure's voice was like a chilling current flowing through the seven's hearts, making them feel their hearts freeze. "

Never heard of me!" Tianping might be famous in Lin City, and those who follow the news might be familiar with him, but to these thugs in S City who only care about making dirty money, he was still a stranger. "

Then I'll make sure you remember me forever!" As the shadowy figure spoke, a long knife magically appeared in his hand. With a thud, it shattered the plate that the large chicken had thrown out. In a flash, the men inside only saw a blur before the figure blocked the large chicken's path as he tried to jump out the window to escape, grabbing his neck. "

From now on, remember this: my name is Tianping. I'll take care of any injustice I know of. If you don't want to die, tell me who Young Master Chen is!" The shadowy figure's icy voice, combined with the darkness of the night, sent chills down everyone's spines. "Go ahead

...kill...me, and you'll never...know...who...Young Master Chen is!" the large chicken, still clinging to a semblance of chivalry, tried to play the hero.

*Crack*—the sound of his neck snapping echoed as soon as he finished speaking. His head lolled to the side, and after the shadowy figure released his grip, he collapsed to the ground, lifeless. This sudden turn of events caused the remaining five murderers and Tianping to collapse to the ground almost simultaneously. They never dreamed they would encounter a ruthless killer. "

Now, do you know who I am?" the six stammered, trembling.

The icy voice of the man said again, "Very good, good memory. Now I'll ask again, who is Young Master Chen? Whoever answers first, I'll spare their life." "Young

Master Chen is Chen Guoping's son…

" The six thugs spoke in unison, vying for attention. Although they ran rampant in the city, bullying the timid, they had never dared to kill anyone. They had never seen someone end a life so easily without even flinching. Fearing they would be snapped if they spoke too late, they all blurted out who Young Master Chen was almost simultaneously. "

Explain in more detail…" the shadowy figure said impatiently.

Chen Shao's real name is Chen Ze, the son of the president of the S City Chamber of Commerce, and the secretary of the president's office at Huaxia University... This time, the guy named A Ping spoke first, but Tian Ping interrupted him when he heard that Chen Shao was the secretary of the president's office at Huaxia University: "Alright, enough nonsense, tell me what you did this time." One of Da Ji's underlings, who was quite articulate, quickly said: "This is what happened. That guy surnamed Zheng from Xueya Shuangye, what's his name again? He paid us 100,000 to kidnap his girlfriend, blindfold her, and take her to a place he specified. Chen Shao has always had a good relationship with us, and he's always liked that female master's student. After we took this job from Zheng, we knew that Zheng wanted to sleep with his girlfriend, so we notified Chen Shao. Chen Shao paid us 150,000 to bring her to him, so we sold Zheng. After knocking him unconscious, we took the woman to a brothel, but unexpectedly, he opened the car door and jumped out." Tian Ping pondered for a moment and coldly said: "If you don't want to die, put all your communication devices on the table!" Without a second thought, three of the six men took out their phones and placed them on the table. Tianping rummaged around on the large chicken, took out a phone as well, stacked them together, and smashed them all to pieces with a single blow. Before the six men could even grieve over the lost phones, and without any visible movement from the shadowy figure Tianping, the other five men, except for Aping who hadn't participated in the kidnapping of Li Lanyu, felt a sharp pain in their left ears. Reaching out to touch them, they found their ears were gone, replaced by hands covered in blood.

Three of the more timid men, thinking Tianping had changed his mind and was going to kill them, were so frightened that they lost control of their bladders, and one even fainted.

This is a small memento, to tell those you can tell: do bad things, but don't let Tianping know! The shadowy figure finished speaking and vanished through the doorway in a flash. When A-Ping reacted and rushed to the large chicken, it was already cold. "

Quick, quick, notify Young Master Chen…" A-Ping shouted first. "

Tianping smashed the phone, how can we notify him?" "My ears hurt so much—" one of them, still recovering from Tianping's intimidation, trembled. "

Run back! Go to the intersection and flag down a car, find a public phone booth and make the call… I… I dare not! If Tianping finds out, I'm… dead! Go yourself!" I...I don't dare either...Let's go out together...Come on, the scales didn't say we could leave here...※※※※ Chen Ze originally planned to get Li Lanyu first and then deal with the rest later. As a teacher, Li Lanyu would definitely care about her reputation and wouldn't make a fuss, so he had nothing to worry about. He could just throw a wad of money at her and it would be fine. He wasn't even panicked when he learned that Li Lanyu had jumped out of the car. But when he went to the principal's office and learned that the matter had alarmed the principal and that the principal was furious, he started to get nervous. This was because Li Lanyu's boyfriend was involved, and he wasn't sure if Li Lanyu would reveal the truth. If Li Lanyu disregarded her boyfriend and asked the police to investigate, then with just one word from the principal, the S City police would definitely treat Li Lanyu's case as a top priority. Others might not know the principal's identity, but as the principal's secretary, he knew it all too well. China was the talent hub of the whole country, and the principal of China was a member of the CPPCC. Even high-ranking officials, like major generals, had to salute him. Countless powerful people across the country were his prized students. The principal's word was enough to mobilize not only the S City Public Security Bureau, but even the military if he wanted.

Sensing danger due to the principal's anger, Chen Ze immediately tried to send those who knew he was the mastermind away, the farther the better. However, he never expected that A-Ping, whom he had just sent to deliver money to get them to leave, would call back anxiously. "

What? Tianping? You mean Tianping, the one who cut off the chief's son's arm in Lincheng?" "I don't know, but Big Chicken was easily crushed by him, and the others each had an ear cut off. We're worried he'll come looking for you, you'd better leave quickly." "Tianping just left, he can't get there anytime soon. Find a safe place, or hire more bodyguards… Okay, I understand!" Chen Ze hung up the phone and immediately tried to run out of the room to call for bodyguards. Just as he reached the door, a dark figure suddenly appeared on the balcony, sneering: "Young Master Chen, it's no use, you can't get out." "You are... Tianping—! Help! Someone help me, quick!" Thinking of the Tianping mentioned by A-Ping, Chen Ze panicked and shouted loudly.

But no matter how much he shouted, there was no response from outside, let alone anyone coming. "

What do you want? Let me tell you, I'm an administrative staff member of Huaxia University, my rank is the same as the Secretary-General of the Municipal Party Committee. You'll regret it if you mess with me! The president of Huaxia University can mobilize the entire city's military and police to deal with you with just one word..." Chen Ze said in terror as he tried to turn the doorknob, but he found to his despair that the doorknob wouldn't open, as if a huge force was holding the door down.

The dark figure sneered: "You know I'm Tianping? Looks like those guys were quick enough to call you. What did you just say? You're an administrative staff member of Huaxia University?" Principal Hua Xia can certainly mobilize the military and police, but if he finds out what you did, he might only call the police. Your Chen family mansion doesn't even need the army to surround it; a few policemen will suffice. You seem to have omitted a bit earlier, so your father is still the president of the Chamber of Commerce, right? At your age of twenty-something, you're on par with the Secretary-General of the Municipal Party Committee, heh heh, what did you rely on? Tianping said, slowly walking towards Chen Ze by the door. "

Don't come any closer. This has nothing to do with you. Let me go, and I'll give you money, as much as you want. I'll pretend I don't know about you killing Big Chicken. Don't come any closer, stop right there, don't come any closer..." Tianping was dressed in all black, the collar of his trench coat turned up high, large sunglasses covering most of his face. His all-black attire gave off a sinister and terrifying feeling, making Chen Ze feel cold sweat pour down his body and his heart chill down.

Tianping sneered: "If Tianping only cares about things that concern him, then what kind of Tianping is he? Come here, come here obediently, and I won't kill you." "You really won't kill me?" "How much money do you want?" Chen Ze slowly moved towards Tianping and asked cautiously.

Tianping coldly laughed: "I don't want money—I want something from you!" "What is it?" "As long as you don't kill me, I'll give you whatever I can!" Hearing that Tianping wouldn't kill him, Chen Ze immediately relaxed a lot. "

I want your manhood—" After Chen Ze walked up to him, Tianping suddenly reached out and grabbed his neck, lifting him up until his feet were off the ground before coldly laughing. As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Ze, who couldn't scream because his neck was being choked, felt a sharp pain in his groin, the pain shooting straight to his brain, and his vision went black as he fainted. He didn't even have time to scream before he passed out. Tianping coldly laughed as he laid him on the ground, looking down at the tip of a Swiss Army knife in his hand, where a long, limp manhood was dripping blood.

Tianping sneered and brandished his military knife. The manhood, as if held captive, moved against the pristine white wall, leaving rows of writing. Once the blood on the manhood dried, Tianping used the knife to manipulate it, turning it to Chen Ze's crotch on the floor, staining it with more blood, and continued writing on the wall.

After finishing, the manhood was worn down to a stub, lying shapeless on the floor. Tianping glanced at the lines of writing on the wall with satisfaction, then magically produced a camera. He stepped back a few paces, filming Chen Ze on the floor and the writing on the wall. He then wiped the Swiss Army knife clean on the bed and quickly disappeared from the room. After he left, the floor-to-ceiling windows shattered with a crash, and the bodyguards below immediately rushed in.

Chamber of Commerce President Chen Guoping rushed forward, only to see a large pool of blood between his son's legs and several lines of writing on the wall: Chen Ze, son of Chen Guoping, President of the S City Chamber of Commerce, on xx/xx/xx/xx, lured and raped a minor girl in xx location, and later settled the matter with 30,000 yuan; on

"Get me Director Huang from the Municipal Public Security Bureau! I want to tear Tianping to pieces!" Chen Guoping roared furiously upon hearing

this. But in the end, he was persuaded by his wife. As the president of the S City Chamber of Commerce and the head of one of the three major groups in S City, Chen Guoping had to protect his reputation. If he notified the police, he could forget about keeping his son's eunuch status a secret. While sending his son to the hospital, he mobilized his personal resources to investigate. But what could he find out?

However, it was pitiful that the thug named A-Ping and the five other guys besides Da-Ji. Tianping didn't go looking for them anymore, but Chen Guoping's men went. All six of them died, their bodies, along with Da-Ji, whom Tianping had killed, were sunk into the Huangpu River.

Zheng Guorong hadn't been able to work peacefully for three days. Ever since he learned that Li Lanyu had been disfigured after jumping from the moving vehicle, he had been on tenterhooks. He had tried several times to visit her in the hospital, to apologize, and to beg her not to file a complaint. But Li Lanyu refused to see him each time. The first day, he was blocked by the college leaders, and later by Li Lanyu's parents. These people didn't know that Li Lanyu had been harmed by the thugs he had brought along, so they didn't blame him. They simply wouldn't let him in because Li Lanyu wouldn't see him inside.

On the third day, Li Lanyu and her parents strongly objected to her discharge and insisted on being discharged. The hospital had no choice but to notify Li Lanyu's school leaders.

Ye Tianya had Xu Keming park the car in the hospital parking lot. He was there to pick up Li Lanyu, but upon arriving at the hospital, Li Lanyu's ward was a chaotic mess, like a marketplace. Just as Ye Tianya reached the entrance, he bumped into someone rushing out. After bumping into Ye Tianya, the person quickly scurried to the side and squatted in a corner, vomiting. Ye Tianya wanted to see what was wrong, and then noticed that it was the college's grade leader who had stopped him that day. Ye Tianya immediately remembered Li Lanyu saying that she wanted the grade leader to see her face to see if he would still send her flowers. Seeing the grade leader in this state now filled him with disgust. He ignored him and walked into the ward.

Once inside, he understood that everyone was trying to persuade Li Lanyu not to leave the hospital, but she insisted. Li Lanyu's trust in him pleased Ye Tianya. He squeezed in to the bedside and asked with a smile, "Teacher Li, are you ready? The car is here!" Ignoring the pleas of those around her, Li Lanyu happily looked at Ye Tianya and said, "Alright, alright, Tianya, shall we go now?" Ye Tianya glanced at the people around him, his gaze finally settling on Li Lanyu's parents. They were simple, ordinary workers; the weariness on their faces indicated they were no longer young, but out of concern for Li Lanyu, they listened to the hospital doctor and strongly opposed her discharge. "

Xiaoyu, you can't leave the hospital! The doctor said it's very dangerous for you to leave now. If you get infected, it will be very serious!" Li Lanyu's parents panicked upon hearing that she had already arranged for someone to pick her up, anxiously trying to dissuade her.

Ye Tianya looked at Li Lanyu, who, perhaps because of her disfigured face, was in a bad mood and said to her parents rather rudely, "So what if I get infected? It's already so bad, what if it gets even worse!" At this moment, the doctor in the white coat next to him interjected, "Miss Li, hospital regulations state that patients cannot be discharged unless they meet the discharge criteria, so..." Before the doctor could finish speaking, Ye Tianya had already bent down and picked up Li Lanyu. "

Ye Tianya, what are you doing? The doctor said she can't be discharged! Where are you taking Teacher Li?" The vice dean of the academy reached out to stop Ye Tianya, who was carrying Li Lanyu and turning to leave.

Ye Tianya stopped and looked at the doctor in the white coat, asking calmly, "Then, doctor, when I came here to visit Teacher Li the day before yesterday, the patient in room number twelve was kicked out of the hospital because she couldn't afford the medical bills. Did she meet the discharge criteria?" "This... this isn't my business. I only care about treating patients," the doctor in the white coat said, immediately becoming awkward.

Ye Tianya sneered, "If Teacher Li is like that patient, unable to pay the hospital, would you still keep her in the hospital?" The doctor hesitated, and Ye Tianya looked at the vice dean of the academy again, saying, "Or would the academy cover all of Teacher Li's expenses?" The vice dean immediately became awkward and said, "This still needs the college to decide..." Ye Tianya's gaze then shifted to Li Lanyu's parents and said, "Uncle and Aunt, come with me. I've invited an expert who has encountered similar illnesses before. Don't worry about the fees; I've arranged everything. The car is outside. Let's go." Ye Tianya said this entirely to appease Li Lanyu's parents. As long as they didn't object, no one else would say anything.

Sure enough, upon hearing that there was an expert and the fees had been arranged, Li Lanyu's parents hesitated for a moment and then said nothing more. The college and the hospital, silenced by Ye Tianya's promise of money, dared not utter a word. Ye Tianya swaggered out of the hospital, handing over the discharge procedures to Xu Keming.

As Ye Tianya carried Li Lanyu out of the hospital, a figure made a chill run through him.

Zheng Guorong had come to beg Li Lanyu again. He couldn't rest easy until Li Lanyu spoke up, but he hadn't been able to get into the ward for days. He never expected to see Li Lanyu outside the hospital today. But when he saw Li Lanyu in Ye Tianya's arms, he was instantly enraged. Forgetting that he had come to beg Li Lanyu not to sue him, he rushed over to Ye Tianya and said, "Ye Tianya, put Xiaoyu down! It's not your turn to hold her..." Ye Tianya stopped and looked at Li Lanyu, whom he was holding horizontally. He wanted to gauge her reaction. When Li Lanyu came out of the hospital, she had covered half her face with her long hair; anyone who didn't know her would definitely think she was a stunning beauty. When Zheng Guorong appeared, Li Lanyu trembled with anger for a moment, then calmed down and suddenly laughed, "Tianya, I've been in the hospital for so long, and I don't even know where my boyfriend has gone. Now that he's here, let him carry me to the car!" As Li Lanyu spoke, she reached out and brushed aside the hair covering half of her face, revealing the grotesque half to Zheng Guorong.

Upon seeing Li Lanyu's half-face, Zheng Guorong's expression changed drastically, from initial curiosity to red, then white, then blue, until finally he squatted down and vomited. Ye Tianya coldly glanced at the grade leader standing behind the college leaders. Seeing his deathly pale face, it was clear he hadn't recovered. Meeting Ye Tianya's amused gaze, the teacher couldn't help but blush slightly and look away. Seeing his reaction, Li Lanyu couldn't help but sneer, saying, "Guorong, what's wrong? Tianya's been holding me for so long, my arms must be tired. Didn't you come to pick me up?" To the astonishment of the college teachers and Li Lanyu's parents, Zheng Guorong stood up and fled without looking back, leaving not a single word. Ye Tianya didn't stop him. He decided to let Yin Chao play with this guy, partly to train Yin Chao's abilities. The cutthroat world of business was something ordinary people couldn't handle, and Yin Chao wasn't skilled enough yet; some practice would be good.

Li Lanyu let out a sarcastic laugh: "How about it, Tianya, I wasn't wrong, was I?" Ye Tianya knew Li Lanyu was referring to the saying that no man is without a lustful nature, and couldn't help but laugh and whisper: "But teacher, it seems like I'm still holding you right now. Does that mean I'm not a man?" Li Lanyu covered her face with her hair again, raising half of her perfect face and whispering: "If you were that kind of man, I wouldn't let you hold me!" At this moment, Xu Keming, who had finished the discharge procedures, came out, and Ye Tianya carried Li Lanyu into the van.

After Ye Tianya moved into Yin Chao's house in Shangri-La, there was no more room for anyone else. So he had to ask Lin Siyin to bring Li Lanyu to her house. At the same time, he also transferred Yang Meng to take care of the Li family's daily life. Shangri-La was left to Yin's mother to manage.
