Heavenly Dream Hotel, top floor.
Ye Feng stood outside a door and two bodyguards in black stopped him.
“I want to see her,” Ye Feng said calmly.
“Little Young Master, please wait for a moment. I’ll report to her.”
After saying that, he took out his phone and made a call.
When he heard this, Ye Feng couldn’t help but sneer in his heart. So you haven’t changed at all. I need to request permission to even see you.
After the bodyguard finished his call, he let Ye Feng in.
After Ye Feng entered, he looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar woman sitting on the sofa and said, “I’m here.”
The woman raised her head. It was the woman who had gone to the Xu family to deliver the betrothal gifts. Her name was Xiao Qiyun, and she was Ye Feng’s mother. However, this woman had never given Ye Feng any motherly love.
“You’re finally here. What? You’re not even going to call me Mother now?”
“Ha, do you remember that I’m your son now?” Ye Feng asked with a spurious smile.
“Actually, I’ve missed you all these years.”
“How can you say that you miss me, Ms. Xiao? If you miss me, shouldn’t you have come to find me a long time ago?
If you really wanted to be good to me, you shouldn’t have been like that when I was young. My knowledge of what the outside was like was only from what he bragged about when you brought him out to play. When you bought food, you would only buy one serving. If he didn’t want to eat it, you would rather throw it in the trash than give it to me. You would only buy toys for him. If I even touched a toy that he was sick of, I would get hit. Are you telling me now that you’re my mother? That you missed me?”
“But you still accepted your identity as the successor of the Ye family, didn’t you?”
“Ha, I have never cared about being the successor of the Ye family. This is just a transaction with the Ye family.”
“But you are also a member of the Ye family. Now that something has happened to the Ye family, you have the responsibility to share the burden.”
“I haven’t been part of the Ye family since that old woman chased me out. If it wasn’t for my second brother, who only knows how to indulge himself in pleasure, getting into trouble, would you guys have remembered that I’m also her grandson?”
“Alright, but the outcome now is that you’ve already come to me, right?”
Ye Feng didn’t say anything. It wasn’t time for them to fall out yet.
Xiao Qiyun looked at the silent Ye Feng and continued speaking, “We will open a company for you to run in Jiang Zhong. I hope you won’t disappoint me.”
“Are you still testing me at a time like this? Do you think I’m inferior to that person?”
“I fought hard for you to get this. I hope you can work hard.”
“I’ll get going first. Call me when the company is ready.”
When Ye Feng heard these things, he felt that his heart and mind were in turmoil. He only wanted to leave.
“By the way, I’ll handle my own matters with the Xu family. You don’t have to worry.”
Ye Feng opened the door and left.
After Ye Feng left, Xiao Qiyun picked up her phone and called the capital.
“Mother, he has already agreed to it. It’s just that he’s a little conflicted emotionally. I think he’ll come around after some time.”
“As expected, how could a wild brat outside resist the temptation of the Ye family’s assets? He must do well.”
With that, the other end hung up.
Xiao Qiyun didn’t want to be so unfair between her two sons. Although she didn’t think as highly of her youngest son, she still felt that she should give him a chance.
Hence, she put in a lot of good words in front of Old Madam Ye and gave Ye Feng this opportunity.
Xiao Qiyun, who was deep in thought, suddenly received a text message.
It was from Ye Feng.
“Any news on my eldest brother?”
Xiao Qiyun replied, “No.”
“If you want me to accept the Ye family in peace, then you better start investigating the whereabouts of my eldest brother.”
“No problem.”
Three days later, something big happened in the business world of Jiang Zhong.
The Ye family of the capital opened a company in Jiang Zhong called Qingfeng Pharmaceuticals. As soon as they moved into Jiang Zhong, they intercepted orders from almost all hospitals and clinics. Even the cities near Jiang Zhong were affected.
Then, they used underhanded methods to either suppress the acquisition or entice them with benefits to obtain 50% of the Jiang Zhong medical market.
This method of almost monopolizing the market caused dissatisfaction among peers, but still, all kinds of drug manufacturers, raw material factories, and businesses went to Qingfeng Pharmaceuticals to seek cooperation.
However, the requirements for Qingfeng Pharmaceuticals to choose a partner were extremely high. In the entire Jiang Zhong, only a few wealthy families had received an order.
Most families were rejected.
The Xu Corporation mainly focused on processing raw materials for drugs and then providing them to pharmaceutical companies to research drugs. Naturally, they hoped to cooperate with Qingfeng.
Madam Xu had sent someone to Qingfeng Pharmaceuticals to seek cooperation on the day Qingfeng entered the market.
However, Qingfeng rejected them.
At this moment, in the conference room on the top floor of the Xu Corporation building.
All of the Xu family’s higher-ups were here.
Seated at the head of the table was Xu Wanghai, who had not been to the Xu Corporation for half a year.
Half a year ago, Xu Wanghai began to gradually relinquish his authority, allowing the younger generation of the family to take charge of the corporation while he retired behind the scenes.
Today, in order to cooperate with Qingfeng, Xu Wanghai came to the corporation once again after half a year.
He had no choice but to come because this collaboration with Qingfeng was too important. Once he formed a collaboration with Qingfeng, the Xu family would break through their current bottleneck and become a true first-rate family. They would be ranked among the wealthy.
“We have to gain cooperation with Qingfeng. Who do you think should go?”
Xu Wanghai raised his question as soon as the meeting started.
When the people below heard Xu Wanghai’s words, they all lowered their heads.
Everyone knew that this contract was not easy to get. This was a thankless job. If they could not get the contract, they would be scolded. They would be dumb to volunteer.
Xu Wanghai looked at everyone who had their heads lowered and couldn’t help but shake his head in disappointment. “Is the Xu Corporation like this now? You don’t even dare to fight for a contract?”
“Grandpa, it’s not that we don’t want to go. It’s just that Qingfeng looks down on our small company and won’t give us a chance,” Xu Tian whispered.
“Great, now that our Xu Corporation has become a beggar, we won’t work with them just because they look down on us? If they don’t agree once, can’t we go a second time or a third time? Or do you guys not have any motivation to work hard?” Xu Wanghai questioned harshly, making the people sitting there speechless.
Just when everyone was silent, a clear voice sounded.
“I’ll go, Grandpa. But I have a request. If I can get the contract, let me be the person in charge of this project.”
The one who spoke was Xu Yaqing.
Xu Yaqing didn’t want to take this job either, but she had just received a message from Ye Feng asking her to take this job. As for being the person in charge, it was Ye Feng who asked her to do it.
“Xu Yaqing, are you kidding? Don’t you know that we can’t get this contract? Are you much better than us? Why do you think you can do it?”
Xu Tian immediately refuted Xu Yaqing.
“Just because you can’t doesn’t mean I can’t.”
Xu Yaqing did not back down either.
“Since you’re so confident, do you dare to make a military pledge?”
Hearing him say ‘military pledge’, Xu Yaqing couldn’t help but feel like retreating.
But when she thought of Ye Feng’s resolution from a few days ago, she decided to trust him again.
“Alright, then we’ll make a military pledge.”
