Chapter 552: Chapter 552: The Gift from Fang Bai

"Miss Ye, my apologies!"

After a thorough inspection, the martial artists guarding the checkpoint apologized to Ye Wumei and then waved the business van through.

The business van drove into the Ye Family Manor and stopped in front of a three-story European-style villa at the center of the estate, where Ye Xing and his wife Sun Lin, who had been notified in advance, were already waiting at the villa’s entrance.

"Mr. Fang, welcome!"

As Fang Bai and a few others got out of the business van, Ye Xing and his wife Sun Lin both came forward to greet them. Ye Xing was particularly enthusiastic, stretching out his right hand to Fang Bai from a distance.

Sun Lin followed behind her husband, her expression somewhat awkward.

Originally, out of consideration for the Ye Family’s interests, she had wanted her daughter to marry Wang Dong from the Wang Family in Yanjing and even hosted Wang Dong and his mother specially in Yanjing for this purpose. But then her daughter brought Fang Bai into the picture, which caused some discord between her and Fang Bai at the time.

Although she later learned about some of Fang Bai’s accomplishments and realized he was a young man with boundless potential, fully worthy of her daughter, and even expressed her support for her daughter’s relationship with Fang Bai, she still worried that Fang Bai might bear a grudge against her because of the incident in Yanjing.

"I’m sorry for the disturbance so late at night!"

Fang Bai shook hands with Ye Xing and then nodded and smiled at Sun Lin, saying, "Mrs. Sun, hello!"

Ye Xing was the head of the foremost great family in Lingnan and also the leading figure in Yuezhou Province, also a Profound Level Martial Artist, naturally exuding a powerful aura. Many people who met him would be intimidated by his presence, feeling as though they were under immense pressure.

But when Fang Bai faced Ye Xing, he was neither overbearing nor humble, speaking naturally without any hint of restraint, which made Ye Xing and Sun Lin hold him in even higher regard.

"Hello! Hello!"

Sun Lin, noticing that Fang Bai didn’t show any signs of displeasure when talking to her, silently breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mom, this is the gift Fang Bai brought for you!"

Ye Wumei lifted up the several gift bags in her hand, blinked, and said, "These are beauty products personally prepared by Fang Bai, and their effects haven’t been diluted at all!"

"Fang Bai is so thoughtful!"

All women love beauty, and Sun Lin was no exception. Seeing the gift bags in her daughter’s hands, she was thrilled and her face lit up with joy.

Previously, Sun Lin had heard from her daughter that the Beauty Company’s rapid rise was thanks to a few beauty recipes provided by Fang Bai. The company’s bestselling products were created by diluting those recipes by ten times, twenty times, or even more before they were launched on the market.

Under her daughter’s influence, a few months ago, Sun Lin had switched to using beauty products from the Beauty Company. Over these months, she had visibly noticed her crow’s feet at the corners of her eyes had lightened significantly and her complexion had whitened a few shades—results unachievable by any other brand’s beauty products.

And now, Fang Bai had brought her his personally prepared beauty products with undiluted effects. For Sun Lin, this gift was better than anything else, and she was naturally overjoyed.

"Fang Bai said that after using his prepared beauty products, you can see significant changes overnight... Mom, you haven’t seen Fang Bai’s mother. She’s in her forties, but after using the beauty products prepared by Fang Bai, she looks like she’s in her thirties. It’s truly incredible!"

Ye Wumei added with a smile.

"Alright, I’ll try it later! Mmm, if it’s prepared by Fang Bai, it must be effective!"

Although Sun Lin said this, she was somewhat skeptical of her daughter’s words, thinking that no matter how effective Fang Bai’s beauty products were, they couldn’t possibly cause such drastic changes; otherwise, they would not be beauty products, but divine medicine.

"It’s cold outside, let’s go sit in the living room!"

Sun Lin immediately warmly invited Fang Bai into the house.

Once seated in the villa’s living room, Ye Xing and Sun Lin exchanged glances when they noticed their daughter sitting close to Fang Bai, bodies pressed together; they hadn’t expected their daughter to have become so intimate with Fang Bai.

"Fang Bai, did you come to Lingnan for a particular reason?"

Ye Xing asked cheerily. He had heard from his daughter that Fang Bai was coming to visit the home but didn’t know why Fang Bai was coming. He also knew that a person like Fang Bai wouldn’t show up without good reason.

"I heard ’Wrathful Beauties’ has threatened to target the Ye Family?"

Fang Bai countered.

Ye Xing was startled, realizing his daughter must have told Fang Bai, and said with a wry smile, "Yes! Last time they kidnapped Wumei, this time they have threatened to kill every member of our Ye Family... I don’t know what’s gotten into this notorious organization recently, but they seem to have taken a particular interest in our Ye Family!"

Fang Bai furrowed his brow, then asked, "The Ye Family doesn’t have any feud with ’Wrathful Beauties,’ right?"

Ye Xing immediately shook his head, replying, "Not at all! How could our Ye Family be involved with that kind of assassin organization?"

Fang Bai said, "If there is no enmity, then someone must have hired them for murder."

Ye Xing said, "Although the Ye Family has some adversaries, none of the rivalries are severe enough to warrant hiring ’Wrathful Beauties’ assassins to completely annihilate us!"

Ye Wumei said, "Could this matter be the result of someone deliberately spreading rumors to throw our Ye Family into chaos?"

Ye Xing sighed, "I hope so. But not long ago, while I was out discussing business, someone left a red flame mark in my private car, and my driver Li Yingjie was completely unaware... and he’s a Profound Level Martial Artist! Moreover, I’ve heard that some ’Wrathful Beauties’ assassins like to leave behind a flame mark before carrying out their tasks. Whether it’s true or not, it’s always good to stay alert!"

Sun Lin said with a concerned face, "The thought of what happened that time still terrifies me! Just imagine if the object placed in your car had been an explosive; the consequences would’ve been unthinkable!"

Upon saying this, she turned to Ye Xing and said, "Old Ye, you should try to cut back on your trips. Even if you have to go out, remember to bring more bodyguards and be very careful!"

Ye Xing nodded in agreement.

"Oh! Dad, Mom, this is for you!"

Ye Wumei suddenly stood up, walked around the coffee table to her parents, took out two chicken-heart jade pendants gifted by Fang Bai, and placed one in each of their hands.

"This is..."

Ye Xing, looking at the jade pendant in his hand, initially thought it was a small gift from his daughter, smiled and said, "It would have been enough for you to buy one for your mom. What would a man like me do with this?"

"These were given by Fang Bai, and I have one too!"

Ye Wumei took out her pendant and showed it off, saying, "These pendants have a strong protective function. Fang Bai said that wearing them can save your life even if you encounter gunfire or explosions. However, they only offer three chances to save your life; after three uses, the pendants will shatter!"

"That powerful, huh..."

Sun Lin glanced at Fang Bai, then looked down at the pendant in her hand. She couldn’t see anything special about it and found it hard to believe her daughter’s words.

Even Ye Xing found it hard to believe that such a small jade pendant could withstand gunfire and explosions. However, he knew that Fang Bai was an extraordinary person and that the pendant must have some effect. Out of respect for Fang Bai, he immediately donned the pendant around his neck.

Seeing her husband and daughter both wearing theirs, Sun Lin also put on hers.
