Hello Mr. King

Chapter 387 - His Professed Small Scale

Chapter 387: His Professed Small Scale

If it were before, Yun Xiangxiang would not complain to Song Mian. Not because of ego though, but rather because of habitual thinking of relying on herself.

Not knowing when it began, Song Mian had made her fall in love with his broad shoulders and safe embrace gradually.

Yun Xiangxiang finally understood the meaning of that saying:

Whose invincibility isn’t steel that was tempered?

Whose peace of mind isn’t walls built by love?

Strength is built only because there is no escort. One can only carry the storm on one’s shoulders.

Peace of mind comes only because someone can shelter you from the storm, allowing you to see the bright and beautiful sunlight.

Yun Xiangxiang was once the former. Now, she qualified to be the latter. However, she had already gotten used to being self-reliant.

She chose so decisively to complain this time only because Zhang Fengde was not someone she could shake with her current capability.

Zhang Fengde was also not a man of good faith. Today’s incident could already be considered as a fallout. Yun Xiangxiang couldn’t put her life at risk.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t be called strength, but flaunting instead.

She didn’t want to wait until Zhang Feng had taken action on her and had herself fall into grave danger before waiting for Song Mian to come to save her.

“How do you plan on cleaning him up?” It was the first time Yun Xiangxiang was so impatient.

Song Mian pulled her directly to the airport. She had indeed left, but as long as Deng Yang was still there, Yun Xiangxiang would be even more worried.

“The clothing company is a place where dirt and corruption are concealed. There are countless dark secrets in it. Zhang Fengde is also not an upstanding person. He has been in charge of the company for so many years. You wouldn’t know how much he has hidden.”

Song Mian pulled Yun Xiangxiang to sit next to him, “Don’t worry, I have already made arrangements. Someone will look after Deng Yang.”

Yun Xiangxiang playfully blinked her eyes for having her thoughts exposed. She laughed a little foolishly, “I didn’t doubt you. Before this, you...”

... didn’t like Deng Yang. After being with Song Mian for so long, Yun Xiangxiang knew about it, although he had been extremely detailed in her affairs to an outrageous point.

But apart from her, Song Mian had always been indifferent, even toward himself.

“There is a phrase called love me, love my dog.” Song Mian said with a gentle laugh, “Since you and her share the same enemy, I have to also look after her affairs to prevent you from getting hurt.”

Moreover, Deng Yang’s responses were quick enough. She was not someone who could be taken advantage of by merely anyone, hence barely qualifying to work alongside Yun Xiangxiang.

The most important thing was that Deng Yang’s intention toward Yun Xiangxiang was pure.

If Yun Xiangxiang were to choose a work partner, she would only consider the person’s personality and talents. As for other capabilities, it could be ignored.

With this, the most critical requirement for Song Mian concerning the people around Yun Xiangxiang would be for the person to be nice toward Yun Xiangxiang truthfully.

With this in mind, Song Mian could choose to ignore any other shortcomings.

“Tell me about the specific plan, then.” Since it was boring on the plane, this could be taken as a pastime and learn from Song Mian, “Also, what dark secrets do clothing brands have?”

“There are too many dark secrets, counterfeiting, swindling, plagiarising...”

In Song Mian’s eyes, Yun Xiangxiang was like white clouds in the sky; elegant, natural, and clean. She should be curled up comfortably and freely in the clear skies, showing off her most beautiful poses and expressions.

He wouldn’t let any filth near her, but he wouldn’t let her know the various industries’ shadiness.

“The common method of counterfeiting is to put their labels and tags on staple goods. It could be that the cost price for a piece of clothing worth hundreds or even thousands of yuan was only just a few yuan.”

Yun Xiangxiang was stunned hearing this, “This is consumer deception, right? It’s simply audacious!”

“Some who are obsessed with first-line brands may experience a psychological effect where even if they were to feel two of the exact same things presented to them, they would think that the branded one is better.” Song Mian laughed gently.

“What about swindling?” Yun Xiangxiang continued to ask.

“After the brand gets bigger, counterfeiting would usually be aimed at franchisees...”

After hearing Song Mian explain these dark secrets in detail, Yun Xiangxiang had an explicable feeling that she had gone through this personally, “It seems that the Song Family is not involved in this field...”

“The Song Family indeed has medical care as its main focus, but not everyone in the Song Family likes studying medicine, and not everyone has the talent for it.”

You couldn’t force it if you don’t have the interest, could you? What more forcing it when you couldn’t understand it?

“So, there are people from the Song Family that are involved in this field.” Yun Xiangxiang came to a realization.

“It’s all just on a small scale.” Song Mian exposed with a brisk sentence.

“I want to know what is the level of your professed small scale?” Yun Xiangxiang’s lips twitched.

“S1. Song Family’s extended family creates the brand.”

He Wei: ...

Yun Xiangxiang: ...

Small scale your ass. That is a listed company with a market value of over ten billion!

Even He Wei wasn’t quite sure of what to say, let alone Yun Xiangxiang. Clothing brands had always been tied closely to the entertainment industry.

S1. Although it was a foreign-registered company, everyone knew that Chinese people founded it. It just hadn’t been investigated in-depth, and it was also an endorsement brand that was highly sought after by the entertainment industry.

Song Mian’s words made it seem like something that couldn’t be put on the table, like something shameful to say.

You must know that ZD, created by Deng Yang, only had five billion market value. It was far behind S1!

“I take back the question I just asked, just assume I didn’t ask.” Yun Xiangxiang stood up silently and returned to her seat while holding her book. She needed some quiet.

“You will have to face it someday.” Song Mian smiled helplessly.

Although he had incredible connections as the heir of the Song Family, they did not interfere with one other’s territory and industries. However, their heritage would not change. When the Song Family made their fortune, it happened not to be when governed by the Chinese.

At that time, Mongolian medicine was the leader of medical studies. As a Chinese doctor, they could only lay low. It was precisely because of those days of being cautious that forged their determination in staying united.

Although many conflicts and family crises had occurred since then, they had endured to this day after all. Medical care was still the Song Family’s roots.

What their extended family didn’t matter, and direct sons did not have to be filial. But no matter how far they ran, they still would not be able to escape from times when they would have to ask for favors.

After all, no one in this world would never fall sick; neither was there anyone who wouldn’t want to live more.

Therefore, his authority is beyond doubt. This was also why the old man rushed to have him created when he did not have the heart to study medicine.

By the time they got married, these people would still have to come home to pay respect to the house’s lady regardless of how dissatisfied they were in their hearts.

Knowing in advance about this now could also prevent Yun Xiangxiang from bungling in circles when the time comes.

Yun Xiangxiang rolled herself up onto the bed and picked up her books for the next semester. She looked exactly like the shape of an ostrich.

In fact, He Wei was also taken aback. He had it a little better than Yun Xiangxiang, that was, he had long known about the existence of the Song Family.

However, he had always thought that the Song Family was only involved in medical care and wasn’t involved in other industries. He didn’t expect that that wasn’t the case.

“Are all the other industries of the Song Family registered abroad?” He Wei asked suddenly.
