Such detailed information wasn’t something just any heir could obtain. In the business world, Yao Corporation was no less competitive than Lei Corporation. Each company’s information was extremely confidential.
“The Lei Corporation’s CEO is indeed extraordinary,” Yao Langyuan said.
“Is that so?” Lei Tianyi raised an eyebrow, looking at him coldly. “For your interest in my fiancée, I’ll share a piece of news with you.”
“Oh? Please tell,” Yao Langyuan responded coldly.
“Five minutes ago, your company’s American resort cooperation project was declared a failure,” his voice as cold as a devil’s, sending chills through everyone’s skin.
Yao Langyuan’s face quickly showed panic. The American resort cooperation was his first major project as CEO. If it failed, those old conservatives would…
Lei Tianyi glanced satisfactorily at Yao Langyuan.
Leng Youlan hugged her doll, linked arms with Lei Tianyi, and said softly, “Yi, shall we go?” “As you wish, my girl,” his gentle voice making the previous confrontation seem like a mere illusion.
The perfectly matched couple in white couple’s attire sat in a silver Mercedes sports car and quickly disappeared from everyone’s sight.
[Volume One: 30, I Want to Start a Company]
Life always needs to leave oneself multiple escape routes. While young, pave more paths for yourself!
“I want to start a company.” “Start a company?” “Yes, the company was officially registered this morning. I want to sell our company’s clothing at the coffee shop.”
Lei Tianyi looked at Leng Youlan’s expression that seemed to say “Isn’t it just like that?” and said somewhat angrily, “I’m telling you now, I haven’t, haven’t. Perhaps, the people around me did investigate your information thoroughly to ensure my safety.”
“Why?” Leng Youlan was somewhat confused. “Because I want to hear you tell me personally.”
Leng Youlan was stunned.
Silence, an unprecedented silence in the room. Beneath the calm surface, two hearts were in turmoil.
Lei Tianyi had never been as flustered as today. Since meeting his girl, his world had been changing. His rationality was in chaos, and the only thing he could be sure of was that he liked her companionship and was willing to cherish her.
Leng Youlan walked in a daze to the window, sitting quietly as she had done countless nights in her childhood. She looked at the endless night sky, a familiar feeling climbing into her thoughts. Warmth, confusion, pain, and deep hatred, the only difference being the lack of her mother’s warm embrace and the whispers that were both happy and painful for her. She felt she was about to be devoured by darkness. At the moment her mother fell in a pool of blood before her, she gave up.
Her mother said before dying that she would avenge them and then marry an ordinary man and live a happy, ordinary life. Could the person behind her give her this? Leng Youlan gave a bitter smile; the answer had long been in her heart. Love was too distant, both for her and for him.
She slowly stood up, looking at Lei Tianyi’s furrowed brow. Her hand tightly gripped her sleeve, afraid it would betray her.
Yi, I am the ghost of Chi,” she said in a calm voice without a hint of emotion. That was her hateful self, yet enough to answer his questions.
Lei Tianyi gave her a deep look and slowly said, “The coffee shop is yours from now on.”
Perhaps this was good for both of them. He just wanted her by his side, and she just wanted him to help her fulfill her wish.
[Volume 1: 31, Devil’s Wishing Pool]
“Youlan, I think it’s almost done,” Lei Jing said excitedly to Leng Youlan, who was planting mimosa. Leng Youlan looked around; the wishing pool was now surrounded by a brilliant garden, a sweet smile spreading across her face.
Seeing that most people had completed their tasks and were chatting and playing, she stood up and said calmly, “Everyone, please listen. We have completed the garden. So, I want to tell everyone the story of this place.”
Seeing everyone’s curious gazes, Leng Youlan began softly, “A long time ago, in the heavenly realm, when choosing a leader… So, this wishing pool is called the Devil’s Wishing Pool.”
“Looking at everyone’s focused expressions, Leng Youlan suddenly said mysteriously, ‘After we completed this garden, this forest has become a maze forest!’
A sweet-looking girl asked curiously, ‘Does that mean this place has become a maze too?’ ‘How could that be? Girls just love to imagine,’ a boy’s words earned unanimous eye-rolls from the girls, while the boys gave sympathetic looks. Leng Youlan continued softly, ‘This place will indeed make people get lost. If anyone doesn’t believe it, you can try it after we go out. But remember to bring your phone, or you won’t be able to call for help!’
Seeing everyone’s eager expressions, Leng Youlan was very happy. Last night, she had sent Fujiwara Naoko to transform this place. She was very skilled in various array techniques.
Leng Youlan secretly glanced at Lei Tianyi, a hint of bitterness in her heart. Would they one day be like He Han and Hei Luo Jia, having a demon’s love? Knowing the result, her heart still quietly harbored hope.
‘Okay, let’s go out now!’ Leng Youlan said calmly. She was the first to walk out. Lei Tianyi also noticed the array set here. Although he knew his girl understood array techniques, he still walked to her side, not at ease.
Leng Youlan knew Lei Tianyi’s intention and gave him a gentle smile. Behind their perfectly matched figures, various gazes were cast.”
But they didn’t care, their eyes and hearts only for each other.
The Devil’s Wishing Pool caused a sensation in S City. More and more people went to the maze forest to find the Devil’s Wishing Pool. Because the maze forest truly made people get lost, the story of the Devil’s Wishing Pool was deeply believed by people.
The Storm of the Devil’s Wishing Pool, centered in S City, began to spread across the world. Meanwhile, JM Company, which operates the Devil’s Wishing series, emerged out of nowhere. Devil’s Wishing Stones, Devil’s Wishing Grass, and various Devil’s Wishing accessories began to become popular worldwide.
JM Company launched Devil’s clothing stores in various locations, primarily focusing on couple’s wear. Almost every couple in the world would purchase Devil brand couple’s clothing.
JM Company’s advertising slogan for Devil’s clothing was “Couples wearing Devil’s clothing, possessing the deep love of devil’s romance.” Because of this slogan, people associated deep emotional connections with wearing Devil’s couple’s clothing.
“Big Sister, what’s our next step?” Mili Kaluda asked curiously. She was the master of Qingfeng Pavilion, responsible for all company negotiations and public relations.
“I’m more curious about why we’re opening a company,” Luisan Sabante asked blankly. She was the master of Ziri Pavilion, responsible for assassinations.
“Indeed, Big Sister,” Aiteman Yokin said indifferently. She was the master of Huangzhu Pavilion, specializing in weapons.
“Big Sister naturally has her reasons,” Ai Guosu said seriously. She was the master of Chengning Pavilion, managing rewards and punishments.
Leng Youlan looked at her sisters, her eyes involuntarily revealing a doting expression. “We can’t keep mixing in this world forever. Everyone needs to understand that we must prepare for the future.”
“Big Sister, does JM mean ‘sisters’?” Fujiwara Naoko suddenly asked. The others looked at Leng Youlan upon hearing Naoko’s question.
Leng Youlan nodded firmly. The seven sisters’ eyes instantly welled up with tears.
“Okay, we have many things to do. Now, listen to my arrangements.” Everyone nodded together.
