The four of them exited the headquarters of the Lingyun Society together and got into Ye Fei's car.
As for Ye Ningsuan's vehicle, it would naturally be returned to her by one of the gang's younger mbers.
Once on the road, Ye Fei casually asked while driving, "By the way, Aunt Mu, you arrived yesterday too, right? Why didn't you co with Sister Weier?"
Mu Ling smiled and said, "We were originally planning to co together, but just before boarding the plane, Weier was called back by her father. By the way, Weier, I haven't asked you yet—what did your father want you for?"
"Nothing important!" Xu Weier, who had claid the passenger seat, pouted and said, "He just told so common sense about going out and what to be mindful of once I beco a celebrity, making get used to these things before I even beco famous."
"No wonder you ntioned needing a bodyguard—it was because of this," Mu Ling said, realizing the reason.
Ye Fei's heart skipped a beat; he had already guessed what had happened. With a wry smile, he said, "Speaking of bodyguards, I'm the one who suffered yesterday. Sister Weier really put through a lot. If I had known, I would have just hired a real bodyguard for her."
"What do you an? Who put you through a lot?" Xu Weier imdiately retorted, "I just comnted that you didn't look like a bodyguard. You're not one anyway. Hmph, I haven't even complained about you bullying yesterday, and here you are tattling first."
Although Xu Weier spoke this way, Mu Ling knew her daughter's character well, and Ye Fei seed like an honest person who wouldn't bully her. She laughed and said, "I didn't want to spoil her, which is why I didn't hire a real bodyguard. But it looks like Ye Fei has been wronged instead."
If Ye Fei had known that Mu Ling considered him an honest person, he would have laughed out loud. He had taken so liberties with her last night, yet he was still seen as honest. It seed he could afford to be even less "honest" in the future.
By now, Ye Fei was certain that Xu Weier's father was connected to that person.
Only that person could have such detailed knowledge of those around him, guessing that Ye Ningsuan would send him to pick up Xu Weier and orchestrating the robbery last night.
It seed this guy had far-reaching influence, with connections even in the remote northwest, where he had a wealthy associate.
Looking at the mature and stunning Mu Ling in the rearview mirror, Ye Fei sneered inwardly.
That Mr. Xu, whom he had yet to et, had made him feel sowhat guilty about "taking" his wife.
But if he was an accomplice of that person, Ye Fei would show no rcy!
Having made up his mind, Ye Fei said to Mu Ling in the back seat, "Aunt Mu, if Sister Weier signs with us, why don't you stay here as well? First, you can take care of Sister Weier personally, and second, you can spend more ti with my aunt."
"That's right," Ye Ningsuan chid in, understanding Ye Fei's intentions perfectly. After all, it had been her idea for Ye Fei to want Mu Ling to stay, so she was fully supportive.
"You should stay here, Mu Ling. Since you moved to the northwest, you rarely get to visit Wang Hai City. We can revisit all our old haunts together."
Naturally, Xu Weier also wanted her mother to stay by her side and added, "Yeah, Mom, I'll be really uncomfortable if you're not around."
With all three of them in agreent, and Mu Ling not particularly wanting to return ho anyway, she readily agreed, much to Xu Weier's delight, who cheered in excitent.
Unlike the Liu family, which centralized all its administrative bodies in one place, the Ye family's businesses were more scattered due to their criminal origins. Instead of having a comprehensive office building like the Liu family, the Ye family's various enterprises were spread throughout Wang Hai City.
The entertainnt company they were heading to was located in the northern suburbs of Wang Hai City, occupying an entire floor of a mixed-use building as both an office and a warehouse.
The four of them took the elevator to the floor where the entertainnt company was located and easily entered the company, also nad "Lingyun."
To their surprise, the vast office hall was nearly empty, with only a handful of people seated inside.
Although they hadn't yet visited the offices or recording studios, they could already imagine the state of affairs.
After a considerable wait, a young girl who seed to be a receptionist finally approached them listlessly and asked, "Are you here for an advertisent?"
Ye Fei was left speechless. He had known that the Ye family's entertainnt company wasn't doing well, but he hadn't expected it to be this bad—relying on advertisents just to get by.
Xu Weier also expressed her dissatisfaction, saying, "Ye Fei, you can't be serious about having sign with a company like this, can you?"
The receptionist, noticing that the group was ignoring her and talking amongst themselves, beca impatient and said, "If you have no business here, please leave."
"Call your person in charge over here!" a commanding voice rang out. It wasn't Ye Fei who spoke, but Ye Ningsuan. Having held the position of CEO of the Ye Corporation for so long, she naturally exuded an air of authority.
The receptionist now took a closer look at the group. Her attention had initially been focused on Ye Fei and Xu Weier—finding the man handso and the woman stunningly beautiful, though one seed naive and the other rather laid-back.
However, upon seeing the two stunningly beautiful won behind them, she was taken aback, especially by the one who had spoken.
The receptionist dared not et her gaze and quickly said, "Please wait a mont. I'll get our manager right away."
With that, she hurried toward an office.
Ye Fei, on the other hand, was transfixed by the queen-like deanor of Ye Ningsuan. She had always been a kind aunt to him, and later, she had shown an almost obsessive attachnt to him—sotis like a lovesick young girl, sotis like a desperate woman. But this side of her was sothing he had never seen before, and it stirred his heart.
It wasn't until Ye Ningsuan cleared her throat slightly that Ye Fei snapped out of his daze. He smiled at Xu Weier and said reassuringly, "Don't worry. What you see now is just the old Lingyun Company. From now on, I'm going to completely reform this company. It won't take long before it becos a top-tier entertainnt company."
Had they not witnessed Ye Fei's capabilities the previous day, Mu Ling and Xu Weier would have dismissed his words as re boasting. But now, they had full confidence in him. They believed that if Ye Fei said it, he would surely make it happen.
After a short while, the receptionist returned, followed by a middle-aged man in his early forties, presumably the person in charge.
Upon seeing Ye Ningsuan, the initially impatient middle-aged man was taken aback. His face imdiately lit up with a sincere smile as he quickened his pace and said, "President Ye, what brings you here in person?"
"How else would I know that a prestigious entertainnt company has now beco an advertising firm?" Ye Fei said with a cold sneer.
He was already deeply dissatisfied with the state of affairs here—neither the receptionist nor the manager seed to take the company seriously.
Ye Fei's words irked the manager, who felt he was speaking ill in front of President Ye. He asked sternly, "And who might this be?"
"He is my nephew, Ye Fei," Ye Ningsuan introduced him calmly, returning to her usual gentle deanor.
"Ye Fei?" The manager repeated the na subconsciously, and imdiately beads of cold sweat ford on his forehead. His body began to tremble slightly. Although he had never t Ye Fei, he had heard of his formidable reputation.
Knowing that Ye Yu had been killed by Ye Fei, the internal rumors about him were far more terrifying than what the average citizen knew.
Ye Fei's words had clearly expressed his dissatisfaction with the company, and the manager couldn't help but feel afraid.
Ignoring the manager's reaction, Ye Fei looked around and asked, "Are these the only staff mbers in this company?"
"Well..." The manager hesitated for a mont, but ultimately dared not lie and replied honestly, "No, our company has nearly two hundred employees, but right now... right now..." He stopped, not daring to continue.
"What's the situation now? Tell the truth!" Ye Fei's voice was not loud, but to the manager, it was like a thunderbolt, causing his body to shudder involuntarily.
