“The matter about Su Dazhi, did anyone put forward any investigation?” Wang Xifan asked to ease his emotions.
“The police thought that this person had fled, but they didn’t suspect that he was murdered.” Huang Youcai reported.
” En , be more careful during this time. Our business over there has stopped already, right?” asked Wang Xifan.
“It had stopped long ago. I was afraid to ship the inventory of electronic components.” Huang Youcai nodded.
“Let’s slow down a little first.” Wang Xifan sighed. “Right now is the most dangerous moment of the Wang Family. Youcai, it’s hard to believe that you’re still staying here to give me advice.”
“President Wang, you recognized my worth and employed me out of kindness. I had no place to go because of the pressure from the underworld. It was also you who gave the money to help me resolve the issue. Then, you treated me very well. You have involved me in every business!” Huang Youcai was moved. “Your kindness, I can never repay you in my lifetime. My parents and younger siblings have lived a prosperous life. I, Huang Youcai, have nothing to worry about. I have sold my whole life to you, President Wang.”
“Good! Good!” Wang Xifan stood up and patted Huang Youcai’s shoulder. “I knew I wasn’t mistaken about you! In the future, I will hand over Zhitao to you. Your ingenuity is enough to assist him.”
“President Wang, please rest assured.” Huang Youcai nodded.

In the evening, at Chen Mengyan’s house, Zhou Jiajia met Chen Fei.
“Dad, this is my classmate, Zhou Jiajia. She is looking for you for something.” Chen Mengyan introduced to her father.
” Oh ?” Chen Fei said, “Hello, Zhou Jiajia. Why are you looking for me?”
“Uncle Chen, hello.” Zhou Jiajia said politely, “Can we talk alone?”
“Alone?” Chen Fei’s expression showed surprise. He looked at her daughter and saw Chen Mengyan nodding to him. Chen Fei nodded and said, “Well, let’s go to the study…”
However, Chen Fei’s heart was still very doubtful. I wonder what happened in order for Chen Mengyan’s classmate to look for me.
When they came to the study, Chen Fei let Zhou Jiajia sit on the sofa. Then, he sat on the office chair. He said politely, “Zhou Jiajia, what’s the matter? Can you talk about it? Don’t worry. There are no monitoring devices in this room…”
” Hehe , I don’t mean that. But, it’s quite a big deal… and…” Zhou Jiajia hesitated. “And I’m not sure if it would cause any consequences…”
” Oh ?” Chen Fei frowned. “What’s the matter? Could it be that you’re looking for me for something related to my job matters?” Chen Fei’s keen professional instinct immediately sensed it being unusual.
” En , it’s both job related and a private matter…” Zhou Jiajia nodded.
“Alright, let me listen to what you want to say.” Chen Fei said seriously. After all, with the relationship connected to his daughter, Chen Fei was very kind to Zhou Jiajia.
“Uncle Chen, this matter is related to Yang Ming…” Zhou Jiajia hesitated and said, “I don’t want to hide from you. I also like Yang Ming…”
Zhou Jiajia used the word “also.” Chen Fei certainly understood what it meant. He was also clear that his daughter liked Yang Ming.
” Oh ?” Chen Fei said, “You… want to talk about this only?”
“No, Uncle Chen. You misunderstood. I’m not here coming to demonstrate or something else. I’m Wang Zhitao’s girlfriend now…” Zhou Jiajia said with a smile.
“Wang Zhitao?” Chen Fei was naturally not unfamiliar with this name, but the situation was foggier.
“Yes, the reason why I’m now Wang Zhitao’s girlfriend is due to the threats by Wang Zhitao’s father, Wang Xifan…” Zhou Jiajia told Chen Fei about her affairs.
“Do you mean, Wang Xifan would hurt Yang Ming?” Chen Fei frowned. Wang Xifan and Huang Youcai had always been the focus of their attention for quite some time. Of course, this was another case. It had nothing to do with what Zhou Jiajia said.
“I think it is… Although I have already agreed to his request as I became Wang Zhitao’s girlfriend… but I’m afraid they would do something to Yang Ming.” Zhou Jiajia nodded. “So, I wanted to ask uncle to help. Please protect Yang Ming. Thank you, Uncle Chen.”
“Why did you look for me?” Chen Fei suddenly asked, “How do you know that I would agree to your request?”
“It’s because… Chen Mengyan is Yang Ming’s girlfriend…” Zhou Jiajia smiled.
Chen Fei looked at the girl in front of him who was as old as his daughter, but he was filled with sentiments. This girl named Zhou Jiajia was much more careful than his daughter.
And everything she did also shocked Chen Fei. He admitted that Yang Ming was one of the more outstanding young people that he had ever encountered. He was a rare exception. However, it made Zhou Jiajia commit such a big sacrifice. Chen Fei found it hard to imagine.
After associating about the past, the girl named Lin Zhiyun suddenly changed her confession abruptly. Chen Fei even suspected that Yang Ming had some sort of a personality charm or aura of triumph…
“Okay, I promise you.” Chen Fei nodded, and suddenly a bold idea emerged.
“Thank you, Uncle Chen.” Although Zhou Jiajia knew that Chen Fei couldn’t refuse her, when she heard his affirmative reply, she could finally rest at ease in her heart. “Then, I won’t bother you anymore. I will go first. I needed to trouble Uncle Chen for all of it.”
“Wait…” Chen Fei suddenly stopped Zhou Jiajia.
“Uncle Chen, anything else?” Zhou Jiajia saw Chen Fei frowning, knowing that he had something to say to her. But, she hesitated and said, “Uncle Chen, you can be assured. What I just told you, no one else knows.”
“Zhou Jiajia, can you do me a favor?” Chen Fei kept quiet for a long time and finally asked…
Half an hour later, Zhou Jiajia and Chen Fei both walked out of the study. The two had already reached a mysterious agreement.
However, what made Zhou Jiajia felt odd was that as she was together with Wang Zhitao, Wang Xue had no objection, but rather, Wang Xue was quite supportive.
“Jiajia, you and Yang Ming simply won’t have any results. It’s better to be with Wang Zhitao.” Wang Xue said on the phone.
“But, I don’t like Wang Zhitao, right?” Zhou Jiajia was shocked. She didn’t expect Wang Xue who always supported her to actually change her mind.
“I think Wang Zhitao is very good anyway.” Wang Xue said, “If it wasn’t… If it wasn’t that I have Tian Donghua, I would be tempted by him!”
“Forget it. I’m really defeated by what you said.” Zhou Jiajia naturally wouldn’t say too much on other hidden affairs with Wang Xue. She just said that she was forced by her mother’s pressure and so on.
……
After Yang Ming’s agreement, the partner of the Ming Yang Entertainment City’s cooperation project was finally finalized.
Without surprise, this person was Yang Dashan.
After Yang Dashan learned the news, he was so excited that he didn’t hesitate to use a large sum of the company’s liquid assets, mortgaged the real estate company, and borrowed a large sum of money from the bank to invest in the entertainment city project.
The location of the entertainment city was a bathing center located in the development zone. The bathing center was originally a property owned by a state-owned enterprise. Later, due to poor management, it was completely sold.
Yang Dashan just took a fancy to this location and felt that the price was right. So, he took it over from the hands of the company. The original layout of this bathing center was great. There was no need to convert. As long as a little renovation was completed, it could be opened for business!
In order to catch up with the entertainment consumption boom of the Chinese New Year, Yang Dashan hired the renovation team at a high price. They must complete the work before the New Year.
Money does great talking. Those renovation workers who were going to go home for the Chinese New Year had finally stayed behind for Yang Dashan’s renovation under the temptation of doubling their usual wages.
Of course, all of this came from Yang Dashan’s nephew, Yang Ming, so he didn’t forget to call Yang Ming to express his gratitude. Yang Ming smiled faintly, just reminding him to avoid being too extravagant in managing the business. If he really couldn’t do it, just let go.
Although Yang Dashan was grateful to Yang Ming for building the connection for him, he didn’t agree with Yang Ming’s words. He thought to himself, How come Yang Ming is starting to be like my second brother? He’s becoming so constrained?
After a few perfunctory words from his mouth, he hung up the phone. Yang Ming naturally heard the absent-mindedness. However, he was helpless but there was no way to go about it. He could only let the gods decide his fate.
Fortunately, if his uncle really lost money, the money that he lost wouldn’t be too much for him. It was impossible for Bao Sanli to trouble his uncle with their current relationship.
Anyway, Yang Ming had done his best. As for the consequences, it wasn’t that he could intervene. With regard to the matter of running a business, not everyone can do it. Especially in the entertainment industry, some people make money when they open their business, but some people lose money.
Moreover, they must have a strong background to be in this industry. He wasn’t too worried about this. There should be no problem with the support of Bao Sanli in Song Jiang, but the rest of it depended on the way the business was run…
But, Yang Dashan lacked such awareness precisely… However, he was now conceited and he wasn’t aware of it.
