CHAPTER 540: CHAPTER 0459: POPULAR STAR, BEI YINYAO! (SIXTH UPDATE)

"Aunt Fang, these things are just a drop in the ocean for me now. You don’t have to see them as valuable. This is my heartfelt gesture to you and Uncle Bai," Ye Qingfeng said earnestly. "For those I acknowledge, I spare no effort to ensure they live the best lives. I hope you won’t refuse, because rejecting means treating me like a stranger."

Despite her reluctance, Fang Meilian couldn’t resist Ye Qingfeng’s repeated persuasion, so she eventually kept the note and bank card.

After chatting with Fang Meilian and Bai Wan’er for a while, Ye Qingfeng received a call from Lei Ye and then left.

Bai Wan’er intended to see him off but decided against it when she noticed he was busy. She stood by the window, watching Ye Qingfeng leave.

"Oh my, I still can’t believe Xiao Feng actually..."

Ye Qingfeng left, and Bai Gang let out a deep breath, cold sweat dotting his forehead.

He always felt an invisible, oppressive presence from Ye Qingfeng, suffocating.

Previously, although he acted kindly, he somewhat looked down on Ye Qingfeng, thinking that he had no family background or abilities and was overly ambitious in learning without taking gradual steps, believing Ye Qingfeng had no great future ahead.

Who would have thought Ye Qingfeng is now above the Nine Heavens, while his exceedingly satisfactory son-in-law, Jian Chen, with top family background, looks, and wealth, is at Ye Qingfeng’s mercy—life and death unknown. Comparing the two is like night and day.

"It seems this is truly unfathomable!"

Fang Meilian sincerely marveled, a smile spreading across her face.

She was delighted with Ye Qingfeng’s status and identity.

Previously, she arranged Bai Wan’er’s engagement to Jian Chen out of concern that Ye Qingfeng couldn’t provide Bai Wan’er a bright future, but now all those worries have vanished.

"Mr. Ye," who reigns supreme at the Southern Base, commanding respect from all elites and possessing mighty force, ensuring Bai Wan’er’s lifelong prosperity is a breeze.

Seeing Bai Wan’er still standing dumbfounded by the bed, Fang Meilian laughed, "Alright, stop staring, he’s already far gone!"

Bai Wan’er only came back to her senses, a blush rising to her pretty face: "Mom, what are you talking about, I wasn’t watching!"

Fang Meilian pulled Bai Wan’er to sit, full of smiles, "Ah, our daughter’s taste is impeccable. The person she fancies is truly extraordinary, far superior to those rich second-generation relying on their parents’ glory."

Bai Wan’er’s face turned crimson to her neck, but Bai Gang pressed on, "Wan’er, such a young and outstanding talent cannot be compared to someone like Jian Chen. Even prominent figures in Jiangnan and Jiangbei look up to him, and Elder Guo, who holds a revered position, works for him. You must seize this opportunity!"

"Dad, weren’t you the one secretly telling me to keep my distance from him?"

Bai Wan’er deliberately asked, playing coy.

"Ahem, well, that was because I wasn’t aware of Xiao Feng’s capabilities back then!" Bai Gang replied awkwardly, continuing, "You see, today, you’re supposed to get engaged, yet Xiao Feng gathered so many important people just to disrupt the engagement banquet. He must have feelings for you, so grab the opportunity tightly!"

Sweetness surged in Bai Wan’er’s heart, but recalling Ye Qingfeng’s words, "We are friends," her heart felt a bit gloomy.

"Dad, Mom, you’re overthinking it; he just sees me as a friend!"

Bai Wan’er murmured wistfully.

"This isn’t a difficult matter!" Fang Meilian encouraged. "Your dad and I started as friends, and now, here you are! Feelings can be cultivated. Such a prominent figure like Xiao Feng, if you don’t take the initiative, countless girls will flock to him. Don’t blame me for not warning you if you miss the chance!"

Bai Wan’er was utterly defeated by her parents and could only nod helplessly, "Alright, I get it!"

She understood clearly as well. From the moment Ye Qingfeng stopped the engagement banquet today, she had already decided she would be Ye Qingfeng’s woman. How could other men possibly find a place in her heart?

Helping Ye Qingfeng manage Nine Tribulations company and promote Spiritual Energy Water was Lei Ye.

Now, his status was incomparably esteemed as well.

However, all of this was bestowed by Ye Qingfeng.

Now, Spiritual Energy Water has been promoted to the Northern Base.

Jiangbei City was the first stop.

Ye Qingfeng sat in Lei Ye’s Extended Lincoln, looking at the photos and documents Lei Ye handed over. His expression was somewhat peculiar, as if reminiscing about a past incident, a certain old acquaintance.

"Could it be that Young Master Ye likes trending celebrities?"

Lei Ye wondered curiously.

However, given Mr. Ye’s abilities now, playing around with a trending celebrity wouldn’t matter much, would it?

Ye Qingfeng stroked his chin, "When is she coming?"

Ye Qingfeng pointed at the photo in the documents, showing a young woman with cosmetics-free face, red lips, big eyes, and a pretty face with a warm smile. There was a hint of seduction in her air, yet she still appeared incredibly pure.

Her profile listed three words: Bei Yinyao!

"Bei Yinyao will arrive in Jiangbei City tomorrow morning. We’ve arranged the reception work," Lei Ye suddenly laughed, "Young Master Ye, do you want to pick her up at the airport?"

"Pick her up at the airport?" Ye Qingfeng appeared puzzled, "Why would I pick her up at the airport?"

"Huh?" Lei Ye rubbed his bald head, puzzled, "Aren’t you a fan of Bei Yinyao?"

"Me, her fan?" Ye Qingfeng chuckled, "I don’t really enjoy listening to music!"

Lei Ye laughed sheepishly, then asked, "Young Master Ye, we’re organizing a party tomorrow night to welcome Bei Yinyao. Will you be joining?"

"I won’t go. I’m not interested in that kind of thing. Leave it to you guys to handle!" Ye Qingfeng said, leaning back and closing his eyes, "Drive around Jiangbei City until I wake up!"

"Yes!" Lei Ye nodded, sighing inwardly, "Young Master Ye truly is indifferent to women!"

Bei Yinyao, a superstar who’s emerged in recent years, though relatively new, has surpassed many veteran artists due to her pure and sweet appearance and heavenly voice, making her the top artist in the largest domestic entertainment company.

Her popularity is tremendously high, with her released albums breaking new records, earning her the admiration of countless young people as a virginal star.

Debuting for two years, she hasn’t been involved in any scandals, diligently using her singing to move countless fans, making her one of the most popular idols in the country.

Inviting her to star was a strategic move by Nine Tribulations company to enhance influence and brand effect for Spiritual Energy Water, with Bei Yinyao being the ideal choice.

His friends, upon learning that Bei Yinyao was coming, were all absolutely ecstatic.

Ye Qingfeng, although a young man, remained calm and composed, uninterested in meeting Bei Yinyao. Such poise and dignity left Lei Ye deeply impressed.
