Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City

Chapter 99 Simple and Honest Li Dazhu

"Director Ma, we don't need you here for the moment. If I need anything, I'll contact you."

Seeing that Zhao Qiang and Wang Long had been taken to the police cars, Shen Yuexin said to Ma Lin.

Ma Lin immediately nodded, "Okay, if there's anything, Director Shen, just give me an order. Here is my business card."

While speaking, Ma Lin handed Shen Yuexin a business card.

Shen Yuexin took it and nodded slightly.

Ma Lin, being a man who understood the situation, knew Yuexin had nothing more to say to him and promptly left.

"Shen, such a stunning beauty with such courage, I admire you, really admire you!"

Ye Ling winked at Shen Yuexin and said with a smile.

"Isn't it you who's the courageous one?"

Yuexin glanced at Ye Ling and said, "You even dare to hit a police officer in front of the station chief; not even an atomic bomb can handle you now."

"They were asking for it; what could I do?"

Ye Ling shrugged helplessly and said, "But still, I need to thank you for your help. Otherwise, dealing with Zhao Qiang and the others would have been troublesome."

"It's nothing, consider it returning the favor for your help the other day."

Ye Ling shook his head and did not speak further.

"Lingzi, who's this girl?" Wang Shufen asked Ye Ling.

Wang Shufen had seen how Shen Yuexin had determined the fate of Zhao Qiang and Wang Long with just a few words.

Li Dazhu also followed with the question, "Yeah, yeah, Lingzi, I didn't expect you to have such a powerful friend and so beautiful at that. She's not your girlfriend, is she?"

"Don't talk nonsense."

Ye Ling glared at Li Dazhu and said, "You know about Huamei Group, right?"

Li Dazhu nodded. Not only he, but Wang Shufen also knew about it.

Huamei Group spans various industries with robust strength, appearing on television almost every day. Basically, all TV dramas and movies have their sponsorship and investment, making them a household name.

In today's society, you might not know who Jobs is, who Kobe is, or even who ***** is, but it's rare for someone not to know what Huamei Group is.

"Could it be that this lady is an employee of Huamei Group?" Wang Shufen asked.

"Employee?"

Ye Ling laughed and said, "Mom, she's not just an employee of Huamei Group, but the top person in charge. If we use the professional terminology, she is the President and CEO of Huamei Group."

"What does that mean?"

Ye Ling: "..."

For someone of Wang Shufen's age, not knowing what a president means wasn't really odd.

It didn't matter if Wang Shufen was unaware, but Li Dazhu was staring with wide eyes, standing there dumbfounded.

"Huamei Group... President?!"

"Damn!!!"

Li Dazhu suddenly shouted out loud, giving Ye Ling a fright, while even Shen Yuexin stepped back, looking at Li Dazhu in confusion.

"You idiot, what are you yelling for?" Ye Ling said, rolling his eyes.

Li Dazhu, excited, said, "Damn, this beautiful lady is really the president of Huamei Group? How is that possible? I know very well what Huamei Group is. Logically, the president of such a big corporation should at least be in their fifties or sixties, with a face full of age spots, a super smart old guy, right? How could she be so young? And... she's way too beautiful, almost inhuman!"

Ye Ling's face was full of black lines as he was at a loss for words.

Shen Yue Xin then asked, "What does 'unprecedentedly smart' mean?"

"Oh, it means so smart that you don't have any hair left—that's called 'unprecedented.'"

Shen Yue Xin, "..."

"That..."

Wang Shufen hesitated for a moment before saying, "Lingzi, your friend helped us out a lot today, we should really thank her properly. How about this, come over to our place for lunch today, Dazhu will be there too, and I'll cook some nice food for you—it's been a long time since you last tasted Mom's cooking."

"Is that so..."

Ye Ling glanced at Shen Yue Xin, struggling to say, "Mom, the beautiful Shen isn't an ordinary person. She frequents five-star hotels, where both the service and the environment far surpass our home. I'm just afraid she might not be willing..."

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Shen Yue Xin gave Ye Ling a stare and turned to Wang Shufen with a smile.

"Auntie, I'm quite hungry too. If you hadn't said anything, I'd have been too embarrassed to bring it up."

The smile of Shen Yue Xin was like the blossoming of a night-blooming cereus—fleeting, yet like a ray of sunlight piercing the night, illuminating the world and making all else pale in comparison.

Even Wang Shufen was slightly stunned, inwardly exclaiming at how Shen Yue Xin represented the pinnacle of perfection as a woman.

Li Dazhu was outright stunned.

After his moment of shock, he poked Ye Ling hard, whispering in what he thought was a very quiet voice, "Lingzi, this *****, such a beautiful woman, you must marry her and take her home as your wife if you can!"

Obviously, this 'very quiet' voice was heard by Wang Shufen, Shen Yue Xin, and the bodyguards behind Shen Yue Xin.

Ye Ling wished he could find a stone to stuff Li Dazhu's mouth shut.

Shen Yue Xin pretended not to have heard, but the slight redness on her face revealed that she was somewhat embarrassed.

Although Shen Yue Xin's mindset was more mature and composed than that of other women, after all, she was still a woman.

Ye Ling's home, or to be precise, Zhao Qiang's home, was truly too lackluster.

Even worse than the conditions at Liu Qiao'er's place, there were almost no household appliances, the walls were stained black, and the empty space made it feel devoid of any warmth.

Due to Zhao Qiang's gambling over the years, causing the family to be in poverty, Wang Shufen also hadn't lived a single good day.

Ye Ling and Li Dazhu were used to such scenes, but Shen Yue Xin rarely entered such houses. However, her expression showed no change, and even Ye Ling admired her level of composure.

"Our home is modest compared to those big cities, Miss Shen, I hope you won't mind."

Wang Shufen brought over a chair and grabbed a cloth to wipe it down.

Shen Yue Xin quickly stopped her, smiling, "Auntie, this chair is already clean, no need to wipe it."

"Oh, alright."

With a smile, Wang Shufen went outside, saying as she went, "You all wait here for a bit, I'll go out to buy some groceries."

Ye Ling nodded, then turned to look at Shen Yue Xin, "Are you sure we don't need to wipe it?"

Shen Yue Xin rolled her eyes, "If I can sit on the chairs at a food stall, I can sit on this chair." Experience more tales on m v|l e'-NovelBin.net

Clearly, the incident at the food stall had left a lasting impression on Shen Yue Xin.

Unbeknownst to Ye Ling, it was that very incident that altered Shen Yue Xin's view on her surroundings.

Shen Yue Xin wasn't coddled from birth; in her heart, she believed that while nice environments are indeed great, they can make a person lazy, whereas challenging environments can drive one to strive and succeed.
