Chapter 687: 687 Chapter: Fire Prevention, Theft Prevention and Preventing Li Feng

"Really? There are still people who don’t know about this?"

Jiang Linda glanced at Su Yuqing, thinking internally that she shared the same sentiment. As a public relations person, she was keen on information within the circles.

Her boss, Li Feng, might seem quite impressive, but in truth, he had a "notorious reputation"—names like "soft-rice king" and "bootlicker" were widely spread, and it didn’t stop people from looking down on him even though he was now the chairman of Century Group.

Moreover, such gossip spread far and wide, and many were even inclined to believe it.

After all, her boss’s incredible luck was too strong—who would believe that he had taken over Century Group out of nowhere, especially since he wasn’t the illegitimate son of the former chairman of Century Group.

"Hmm, that might actually be a possibility."

"Oh?" Su Yuqing looked at Jiang Linda, who said, "The guy seems to be a returnee from abroad. He mentioned that he had just become the vice president of Wanfu Jewelry a couple of days ago and had not been back in the country for long."

"Okay, so what do you mean?"

Normally, one would just call Li Feng, but that seemed a bit improper since he wasn’t just the boss of Myth Communication but also the chairman of Century Group.

Myth Communication had just crossed a hundred million in assets, whereas Century Group was a trillion-yuan conglomerate. The difference was clear, hence Li Feng not visiting Myth Communication had become commonplace—their company functioned almost solely under their leadership, essentially a company led by secretaries doing the boss’s job.

Jiang Linda hesitated, then Chu Shiyu who was beside her blinked: "Why not give the boss a call, after all, he is the boss."

Su Yuqing echoed her, "Shiyu is right, what’s the use of us pondering over this here? Let’s inform him, and whether he comes or not, that’s up to him."

Jiang Linda nodded, took out her phone, and called Li Feng. More than half an hour later, Li Feng showed up at Myth Communication’s office.

"Wanfu Jewelry."

Li Feng sat in the boss’s chair, looking at an invitation card, while Jiang Linda spoke up, "Well, the vice president from Wanfu Jewelry wants to discuss a partnership for the upcoming year with us in charge of their promotions and handle all related public relations for Wanfu Jewelry."

"And they have offered fifteen million for the price. Wanfu Jewelry ranks among the top ten jewelry groups in Yan Country, owning over three hundred stores and assets worth over ten billion. Furthermore, Wanfu Jewelry has an excellent reputation with hardly any negative news."

"For us at Myth Communication, this is a high-quality major client. However, there’s a condition; they want you to personally negotiate the partnership."

Li Feng hummed in response.

"Ah, the other party is a returnee and probably doesn’t yet know about your other status, boss. After all, I’m just an assistant, and Yuqing is just a secretary, we’re hardly influential and might be looked down on."

Jiang Linda gave Li Feng a slight look, with a bit of a complaint: "As for such small orders, if Chairman Sir finds them uninteresting, just pretend I never mentioned it."

"Oh, right, although we signed a strategic contract with Century Group, in reality, that business section can’t really get off the ground—the people over at Century Group are quite resistant to us and don’t even care to deal with us."

"So, right now the whole company is just idle."

Li Feng listened to Jiang Linda’s somewhat wistful tone, "I got it, I’ll talk to him."

"That’s agreed then, I’ll go respond to Wanfu Jewelry now."

"Hmm!"

Li Feng nodded in acknowledgment, Jiang Linda turned and left the CEO’s office, and as he watched her depart, he harbored some suspicions.

His reputation in Sea City, and still there were people who didn’t recognize him? Li Feng squinted and tapped on his keyboard, directly searching for Wanfu Jewelry.

Wanfu Jewelry’s chairman, Pei Han.

His surname was Pei.

The jewelry industry didn’t really have any conflict with Century Group, and then his gaze moved over the draft contract and a business card on the table.

"Wanfu Jewelry Vice-General Manager, Huo Yongtao."

Huo Yongtao, that Young Master of the Huo Family.

Li Feng suddenly recalled a past meeting with Chu Wei, who had mentioned this Huo Yongtao—his ancestors had included a Grandmaster. Still, halfway through, his family business was snatched away, and previously, they had exploited him briefly; now, he was approaching this closely.

Was it really a coincidence, or was there an ulterior motive?

Interesting.

Li Feng curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly as Jiang Linda came back and looked at Li Feng, "I’ve already confirmed with them, and they will arrange a meeting with you in the next couple of days."

"Alright, call me when the time is set."

Li Feng didn’t stay in the office, leaving Jiang Linda to handle the contract matters.

Wang Family mansion.

Wang Jin’er stared dumbfounded at Li Feng who appeared in front of her and quickly shut the door, "How did you get in?"

Li Feng stretched out his hand and wrapped it around Wang Jin’er’s slender waist, pulling her into his arms, "Hey, missed you, just naturally came in."

Wang Jin’er rolled her eyes, "Since when did you also learn to be so slick with words? Really, how did you run over to the mansion, aren’t you afraid of running into my dad?"

Li Feng casually sat down on a nearby chair, letting Wang Jin’er sit on his lap, "You’ve lost weight. Don’t worry, your dad will soon agree to our relationship."

Wang Jin’er looked at Li Feng but sighed, "If only it were that easy. My dad would never agree!"

Wang Jin’er’s face darkened; her father wanted her to inherit the Wang Family’s business, so he was trying to make Li Feng a son-in-law who would be under their thumb. The entire Wang Family was holding its breath, but now that they were to marry off a daughter, her uncles would surely step in, trying to make her give up the family business.

The conflict lay here: her father insisted on passing the Wang Family business to her, yet if she married out, the other members of the Wang Family would certainly not let it happen as planned, which essentially created a deadlock.

Li Feng looked at the distressed Wang Jin’er and grabbed her hand.

"Trust me, I’ll solve it."

Li Feng quickly changed the subject: "Can you go out now?"

"Hmm?"

Wang Jin’er looked at Li Feng, "I can, but there are bodyguards following me everywhere, and besides, my dad is on high alert against theft, fire, and you, so he simply doesn’t allow me to see you."

"What’s up?" Wang Jin’er asked.

"Nothing serious, just got invited to an engagement party."

"Oh, whose engagement party?"

"Do you know Wanfu Jewelry?"

"Oh, I know them, a quite famous jeweler in Yan Country. But Wanfu Group’s assets are only in tens of billions, not enough to send an invitation to our family."

Wang Jin’er shook her head.

Wanfu Jewelry was well-known with assets in hundreds of billions, but they hardly measured up to the Wang Family, and since Wanfu Jewelry dealt in jewelry, they didn’t have much interaction with the Wang family.

"So, did you come to ask if I’d go with you?"

Wang Jin’er narrowed her eyes at Li Feng.

"Yeah."

Li Feng nodded, Wang Jin’er’s eyes flickered, "Which day?"

"June 8th."

"Alright, seeing as you’re so sincere, but I have bodyguards following me whenever I go out now, so you’ll need to handle that."

"A piece of cake, leave it to me."

Li Feng spoke then buried his head in Wang Jin’er’s embrace, her face blushed, "Don’t...!"
