Chapter 205: 205 Strong! Complete Withdrawal from Shelves [1 Update] Chapter 205: 205 Strong! Complete Withdrawal from Shelves [1 Update] The Xiang Family’s legacy has endured to this day, its foundation naturally extrely rich.
From a young age, Xiang Shaoyu read various books in the Scripture Pavilion, and he was very familiar with every war,
The blood of the Xiang Imperial Family had flowed for so long, and their pride remained unyielding.
“That’s our Brother Shaoyu!” Xiang Yuefeng applauded, “If you had been born ten years earlier, Seres would have been driven out long ago for their malicious insults to Shenzhou.”
Xiang Shaoyu couldn’t be bothered with him and simply took out his phone: “I’ll contact Miss Ye first.”
The call was quickly answered: “Hello?”
“Miss Ye, it’s , Xiang Shaoyu,” Xiang Shaoyu said, “I’ve heard about the situation with Saint Leys. Coincidentally, I just took over the Everlight City project last year, and I can have them completely withdraw.”
“If Young Master Shaoyu can offer help, I would be very grateful,” Ye Wanlan was slightly taken aback. After a mont of silence, she spoke again, “However, the workers at the Saint Leys counters are also ordinary employees. Before resolving their employnt, let’s not talk about the withdrawal of counters.”
One should not, after all, let the innocent suffer because of the conflict between them and Saint Leys.
There’s an old saying, “When immortals battle, mortals suffer,” but in the end, there are no gods in this world—everyone is but one of the countless living beings.
In her life as Princess Yongning, she had made nurous incognito visits to understand the common people’s sentints, personally toiled in the fields, and tasted the full spectrum of life’s hardships.
Because many, many things are simply invisible from a high position of authority.
Even if one does see them, they might be overlooked due to a lack of empathy.
Those who win the people’s hearts win the world; those who lose the people’s hearts lose the world.
If one is cruel and inhumane, they will ultimately be dood to destruction.
How could she not protect her own people and let such incidents beco a weapon for enemies to stab at Shenzhou?
Xiang Shaoyu also suddenly realized, his expression involuntarily stern: “Miss Ye has considered thoroughly. I almost forgot about this issue. Rest assured, Miss Ye, the Xiang Family will arrange relevant jobs for them.”
“No need to be polite,” Ye Wanlan said with a slight smile, “If any of them wish to co to Pulling the Sky to learn intangible cultural heritage techniques, I welco them too, with salaries that are only higher, not lower.”
Xiang Yuefeng nodded: “After Saint Leys withdraws, would Miss Ye need the vacant store spaces?”
“Not for now. The company currently lacks production capacity and doesn’t have enough products to support a storefront,” Ye Wanlan shook her head slightly, “Right now we are still going with an online reservation model, planning to open the first physical store by the end of the year.”
“Good,” Xiang Shaoyu smiled, “Then when that ti cos, Miss Ye just contact , and I’ll reserve the best store spaces for you, striving to promote and magnify Shenzhou’s intangible cultural heritage.”
Upon uttering these words, a surging passion rose within his long-dormant heart.
After the call ended, Xiang Shaoyu turned his head: “You did well this ti, showing so insight.”
“Of course,” Xiang Yuefeng raised his chin proudly, “Last ti Tingfeng even praised as being smarter than Rong Yu.”
Xiang Shaoyu thought for a mont: “Just a little bit smarter, I guess.”
Xiang Yuefeng: “…”

The words of the MN Group Director had also been spread on foreign websites, and people of Shenzhou overseas had started boycotting as well.
[It’s so infuriating, if Saint Leys dares to take even a penny from us, that would be shaless to the core!]
[Oh please, why wouldn’t they dare? Didn’t their ancestors outright steal a lot of our cultural relics? Of course, they dare now.]
[Anyway, so people will still buy, just watch.]
[But there’s sothing to what was said, we really don’t have an internationally recognized luxury brand. Can’t the big companies step up?]
[I have high hopes for Pulling the Sky Company. Listen to that na, Pulling the Sky, how domineering!]
anwhile, inside Pulling the Sky Company.
“Sister Lan, Everlight City and Zhaoyun Plaza have already issued notices, demanding that all Saint Leys stores be withdrawn within one day,” Fang Qingli reported, “I’ve also alerted President Quan in advance to arrange new jobs for the staff inside the stores, ensuring that their rights won’t be compromised.”
“Good,” Ye Wanlan nodded, “We also need to start preparing for the physical stores. Once they’re open, we’ll guarantee new arrivals every month.”
Fang Qingli agreed: “The physical stores will follow your plan, Sister Lan, with two tiers—an ordinary storefront that carries the ‘Shenzhou’ product line, and a high-end product line ‘Dragon Sing’ that will be in luxury malls; both stores will have entirely different product offerings.”
“Not bad,” Ye Wanlan pondered, “President Quan and Young Master Shaoyu have helped us a lot, and they didn’t need to get involved. We’ll prepare so gifts as a thank-you later on.”
“Sister Lan, we are all people of Shenzhou, naturally siding with Shenzhou,” Fang Qingli said, “Just now my mom called and asked if the Fang Family should offer so help. But Sister Lan, without the Xiang Family and President Quan, this ti…”
Ye Wanlan humd in acknowledgnt: “It would’ve been a bit troubleso, but still manageable. I intended to contact my online friends, but it looks like there’s no need for that now.”
“Online friends?” Fang Qingli’s forehead bore a question mark, “What online friends?”
Could they be that powerful?
“Five years ago, she said she was going to Wanguo Group, I don’t know if she’s gone there by now,” Ye Wanlan spoke casually, “She’s reliable; I’ve always been confident in her handling things.”
Fang Qingli’s mouth ford an ‘O’: “… The Wanguo Group?”
Wasn’t that the biggest group in Global Center?!
What kind of people were Sister Lan’s online friends?
**
Xiang Shaoyu and Quan Zhaoning acted swiftly, with orders issued and executed the very sa day.
The withdrawal of the counters was a big move, and naturally, it couldn’t go unnoticed.
Even many passersby stopped to film videos and uploaded them to the internet.
[Breaking – All Saint Leys counters at Everlight City in Yunjing have been withdrawn!]
[The Saint Leys stores in Everlight City here have all closed down too, billboards have been taken down, so satisfying!]
[Wow, so assertive! When has Everlight City ever been this bold? They weren’t even this assertive during the last Seres video scandal.]
[Everlight City is under Xiang’s Group, wild guess here, could it be that the Crown Prince of the Xiang Family has started to take over the family business?]
[I once had the honor of glimpsing the Crown Prince of the Xiang Family from afar, and I must say, his deanor was impressive. If he were in ancient tis, he’d surely be a prince.]
In the midst of all the controversy, a new term was born —
#MysteriousCapitalCircle’sCrownPrince#
As a frontline surfer on the web, Xiang Yuefeng couldn’t wait to find Xiang Shaoyu.
“Brother Shaoyu, online friends are now very sure of your identity,” Xiang Yuefeng said seriously. “From today on, you’re the one and only Capital Circle’s Crown Prince.”
Xiang Shaoyu: “…What the hell is that?”
Since when did modern society have anything like a ‘Crown Prince’?
And to add ‘Capital Circle’ to it?
It sounded utterly shaful, and he felt a sense of social death.
“Brother Shaoyu, don’t be shocked,” Xiang Yuefeng consoled him. “I think the title of Capital Circle’s Crown Prince is slightly better than Buddha’s Son of the Capital Circle, don’t you think?”
Xiang Shaoyu: “…What the hell is Buddha’s Son of the Capital Circle?!”
He always felt that his obsession with collecting antiques, along with his family business keeping him on his toes, had made him unable to keep up with current trends.
But were these titles really okay to be spoken aloud?
Just hearing them made him speechless.
“It’s none other than the guy from the Huo Family,” Xiang Yuefeng shrugged his shoulders. “Didn’t he enter monkhood? But there are still plenty of young girls going to Cold Hidden Temple to see him and throw peach blossoms at him.”
Xiang Shaoyu rembered now: “Wasn’t he ordained as a monk and vowed to remain unmarried for life?”
“That’s why he got the nickna ‘Buddha’s Son of the Capital Circle’,” Xiang Yuefeng clapped his hands. “Isn’t it fitting?”
Xiang Shaoyu: “…You can leave now.”
He should have less contact with Xiang Yuefeng; it was destabilizing his mature and stable persona.

Starman Federal Empire, MN Group headquarters.
“What does this an? Why withdraw the counters without a heads up?” The director’s veins on his forehead bulged. “This is a breach of contract, do you believe we will pull out all of MN Group’s other brands as well?”
“Beep beep beep—”
The call was hung up, leaving behind only the cold chanical tone.
“Look at what you’ve done, so things should just stay in the heart, why say them out loud, huh?” the general manager berated, wanting to slap so sense but held back. “Do you think the situation isn’t chaotic enough and needs more fuel on the fire?”
The director hadn’t expected Shenzhou to be so adamant this ti.
Without any courtesy, they simply removed the Saint Leys stores.
This was a huge humiliation for the MN Group.
“But, but we still have AOL, right?” the director pursed his lips. “Although the stores in Everlight City and Zhaoyun Plaza have been withdrawn, we have many stores in AOL, and they are not controlled by the People of Shenzhou, so they shouldn’t make such a fuss.”
MN Group is one of the biggest luxury empires, with a vision for the future
AOL malls, standing for “articles of luxury,” literally translates to luxury goods.
AOL malls are all over the world, with the largest headquarters located in Global Center.
The headquarters’ store could only be accessed by esteed mber cardholders.
“There’s AOL, but do you know how many stores Saint Leys has lost this ti?” the general manager finally snapped. “Seventy-five! Do you understand how much money that is?”
The director bowed his noble head, unable to utter a word.
At that mont, a new term appeared on Weibo.
