CHAPTER 599: CHAPTER 598: WEI XUEQING’S CONFUSION (1/3)

The five people in the delegation hesitated for a long time.

People like Miles Bene from Feike Jewelry and Carol Kane from Zika Red Wine were the most relaxed. Firstly, because they were in the trade business, and secondly, because Zhao Feiyang had already laid a solid foundation in Ningchuan. They just needed to expand the market.

Compared to the other three, the development favored Lairui Technology the most. Being in the electronics technology industry, they already had many projects, and any project taking root in Flame Country, in Ningchuan, would be very appealing and facilitate their work.

Moreover, being involved in electronics technology, they naturally garnered a lot of attention from the locals, making cooperation and development a breeze.

Berry Pharmaceutical also had relatively good development prospects. They owned medical enterprises, pharmacies, and had the necessary technology, so as long as they identified the right development direction, they could quickly establish themselves.

The most challenging task fell upon Nolan Bayle of Jingqi Heavy Industries, whose work was indeed very difficult to kick off.

Despite the month being short and challenging, after hesitating, everyone resolutely agreed.

"Rest assured, Mr. Yang!" Nolan Bayle said in a deep voice, "I will do my utmost!"

Yang Chen nodded, stood up, and said, "Looking forward to your good news!"

Thinking for a moment, Yang Chen bent over and wrote down his phone number, telling them, "If there’s anything important, feel free to contact me directly."

With that, Yang Chen left the room and took out his phone.

A few calls had come in earlier, but Yang Chen wouldn’t answer calls when he was having important discussions with others.

When Yang Chen called back, he was immediately met with Sun Yue’s roar.

"I called so many times, why didn’t you pick up?" Sun Yue shouted angrily.

"Busy," Yang Chen replied indifferently.

"You!" Sun Yue was probably already about to explode with anger.

"What’s up?" Yang Chen asked.

Sun Yue huffed angrily, "Yang Chen, I warn you! I am Ye Xin’s subordinate, not yours! You have no right to order me around like this!"

Yang Chen ignored it, but he could hear grinding teeth over the phone.

"I’m just calling to let you know that the addresses have been confirmed. They are mostly correct. There are some changes, and I’ve marked out the addresses of other personnel for you, so see for yourself!"

With that, Sun Yue hung up the phone.

Yang Chen opened the picture Sun Yue sent, indeed seeing the newly marked addresses.

With the addresses confirmed, Yang Chen forwarded the pictures to Gao Hong and sent him a message to be prepared.

If they had found the address of the Shangqing Sect, everything might be too late to execute, and whether they could make it out alive was another question. So before leaving for the trip, Yang Chen needed to resolve certain things.

Yang Chen bought some dinner and pastries and returned to Emperor Garden.

As soon as he entered, Chen Siyan hurried over, pulling Yang Chen’s arm, "Brother, where did you go? Why are you only back now?"

When Yang Chen left in such a hurry, it worried Chen Siyan a lot.

Yang Chen smiled and said, "Don’t pull me, I’m holding stuff, went to buy food for you all."

"You don’t need to ask him," Wei Xueqing said coldly from the sofa, "He naturally has his own things to attend to."

Chen Siyan pouted and let go of Yang Chen.

Yang Chen unpacked the food he bought and placed it on the dining table, "Come eat."

Chen Siyan, hungry the whole day, immediately rubbed her hands and sat down, drooling over the feast on the table.

Wei Xueqing stood up, staring at Yang Chen, "You just went to the Zhangkou Grand Hotel, didn’t you?"

Yang Chen frowned, "Yes!"

"And Zhao Feiyang also went, right?" Wei Xueqing continued.

Yang Chen put down his chopsticks, stood up, and stared at Wei Xueqing, "So what if he did?"

"As far as I know, Zhao Feiyang was responsible for Feike Jewelry and Zika Red Wine before the delegation arrived, right? Now you are together, were you holding a meeting? Or plotting something?" Wei Xueqing said coldly.

Yang Chen sneered, "Sorry, I really don’t see the need! First, make it clear, Feike Jewelry and Zika Red Wine were brought by me. Without me, they wouldn’t have come. And the five people in the delegation all have ties to me. Without me, you wouldn’t have this business opportunity. As for what we discussed, none of it concerns you, and I certainly won’t disclose any information to you, or deign to share it with them!"

After saying that, Yang Chen sat down and told Chen Siyan, "Eat more."

Wei Xueqing was stunned for a moment.

After listening to Yang Chen, she suddenly realized she had oversimplified things.

She knew Yang Chen well and was very aware that he would never engage in commercial espionage.

However, for some reason, she acted like a fool, speaking without thinking.

She couldn’t understand why she did it. She clearly wanted to strengthen her relationship with Yang Chen, to get closer to him, but instead, she just pushed him further away...

At this moment, Wei Xueqing heard Yang Chen saying, "Yanyan, get ready, I might go traveling in a couple of days, probably to Yun Province and a few surrounding provinces and cities; it’s time to fulfill my promise to show you the sea of flowers."

"Really?" Chen Siyan was excited.

Yang Chen nodded, speaking solemnly, "I promised you a long time ago."

Chen Siyan, overcome with excitement, seemed to remember something, and softly said to Yang Chen, "Brother... it was originally supposed to be with sister-in-law as well..."

She feared Yang Chen would be saddened.

Hearing this, Yang Chen couldn’t help but chuckle gently and looked at Chen Siyan tenderly, "Silly girl, don’t worry, I won’t neglect your sister-in-law. We’ll have plenty of time together after the wedding, and then we’ll take a trip around the world... I’ll show her the most beautiful scenery in the world."

Chen Siyan could not help but yearn for this and half-jokingly pouted, "Oh, so the best things are reserved for sister-in-law! Of course, once men have a wife, they forget their sisters, huh! All men are the same!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Chen couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat, glaring at Chen Siyan, "Where did you learn to say things like that?"

Chen Siyan picked up the Aipu X beside her and said, "With it, is there anything I don’t know?"

Yang Chen couldn’t help but shake his head.

Wei Xueqing seemed to see hope and quickly said to Yang Chen, "Are you going traveling these two days?"

Yang Chen looked at Wei Xueqing, nodded, "Going out on business."

Indeed, he was going on business, to arrange things for the families of fallen brothers and those who’d withdrawn.

"Then let me come with you!" Wei Xueqing said.

Upon hearing this, Yang Chen couldn’t help but frown, "I’m going for work, just taking Yanyan out on the side, besides, aren’t you busy negotiating cooperation with the delegation?"

"The contract will be signed tomorrow, the final negotiations are done, and my subordinates will handle the rest, nothing to do with me," Wei Xueqing crossed her arms, staring at Yang Chen with a certain determined look.

Yang Chen shrugged, "Arrange it yourself. I don’t have time to entertain you, it’s not a relaxing journey!"

Seeing Yang Chen agree, Wei Xueqing was thrilled, pulling Chen Siyan and saying to Yang Chen, "Don’t worry, I’ll be with Yanyan, I can take care of her!"

Yang Chen shook his head and continued eating.
