Qin Li called his wife back from her SPA to their home estate and asked her to change into a new outfit.

"Remember I told you about Tianfeng Company’s secretive owner, Feng?"

His wife, Gao Lingling, nodded.

Of course, she remembered.

Her husband and a few others in their circle had made no small effort for that slot.

It was common knowledge how fiercely contested this slot currently was in the capital circles.

Out of the ten slots, the Jingbei Circle took one.

Jiangcheng grabbed three.

One was held by a circle led by Tang Jun.

One belonged to Guo Yunfan’s circle.

There was also one registered to a Pei Li, but a little inquiry revealed that she was Lin Yu’s girlfriend.

She was the Lin Family’s front, holding shares not only in Tianfeng’s branches but also controlling stakes in the Thunder Group.

With Guangshen Capital holding onto one slot, there were now less than five slots left undistributed.

The once prestigious families of Jiangcheng – the Qin, Dong, and Xu – had modest demands; even if they were to share one slot among them, they’d be content.

Curious, she asked, "Didn’t you say that it’s impossible to meet this big shot?"

"It just so happens that Feng has invited us to play mahjong today," Qin Li instructed her, "Guo Yunfan’s wife will also be there; you and the others will play at another table with sister-in-law. She doesn’t play well, so let her win sometimes. It’s not about the money, just make sure she feels included."

"Don’t worry, I will definitely take good care of sister-in-law," his wife replied excitedly, nodding her head.

She knew of Gu Feng’s background and the thought of visiting the big shot’s home with her husband made her both nervous and excited.

On the other side. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Zhao Wenwen, following Guo Yunfan, passed by a Bolaiya flagship store and had an idea: "Shall we not buy a gift to bring over? How about I go home and fetch the high-end cosmetics from Bolaiya that I snatched up earlier to give to sister-in-law?"

Guo Yunfan made a queer face: "No need, sister-in-law won’t be interested in that."

"You don’t understand women," Zhao Wenwen huffed, "Every woman in Jiangcheng’s social circles talks about these things. They’re very sought after now. You try buying them and might not even be able to get your hands on them – they are that hot. Trust me, sister-in-law will definitely like this gift!"

Guo Yunfan chuckled wryly.

In his circle, perhaps only his fiancée Zhao Wenwen was unaware of Gu Feng and Lin Yue’s background.

After all, she was a fiancée who had just recently gotten to know him, and she was not very familiar with the Guo Family’s circles.

"There’s no time, we’re in a hurry," he said.

The two drove to Tangchen, and Zhao Wenwen asked curiously, "Are we playing at your place?"

She knew that Guo Yunfan owned a house here in Tangchen.

After parking the car, Guo Yunfan shook his head and said, "Feng’s house is here in Tangchen. We all bought a house here after seeing him live here."

Seeing his fiancée wanting to bring her purse, he said, "Leave the bag, just bring your phone. The guards won’t let you bring anything else."

Guards?

Zhao Wenwen followed Guo Yunfan around a large building to another entrance with its own access.

There, to her surprise, were indeed armed security guards!

Zhao Wenwen became somewhat apprehensive.

She followed Guo Yunfan carefully and was searched by the guards before they were allowed to ride in a private elevator.

As the elevator doors opened to a private corridor leading to a certain apartment, they encountered another layer of armed security.

After ringing the doorbell and seeing Lin Yue open the door, Zhao Wenwen was stunned and blurted out with a slight bow, "President Lin, good to see you."

The buzz around the cancer medicine had made Lin Yue, the head of the state-owned Meiyue Group, a household name.

Zhao Wenwen paid attention to Lin Yue because of her beauty!

She bowed because she knew that this President Lin held a pivotal position in Jiangcheng!

Not only was Meiyue Group a high-ranking entity independent of the local Jiangcheng administration, but even many of the local capital magnates relied on President Lin to get their hands on the cancer serum!

Due to the scarcity of mass-produced pharmaceuticals, aside from supplying what was needed for frontline patients, Dragon Nation also added a markup for export to foreign countries.

After all, that’s where the real money was.

The domestic price for citizens was only 50,000 per dose – which honestly wasn’t expensive, considering that the cost was nearly 30,000.

Thus, many capitalists who had no access to the medicine were all eager to ingratiate themselves with the executives of Meiyue Group to reduce their waiting time, not to mention dealing with the head of Meiyue Group.

"Sister-in-law, this is my fiancée, Zhao Wenwen," Guo Yunfan introduced her to Lin Yue with a smile.

Lin Yue glanced at the young woman who had just bowed deeply to her and smiled magnanimously, "Come on in."

After Lin Yue turned to go inside, Zhao Wenwen widened her eyes in astonishment at her fiancé Guo Yunfan and asked, "She, she is the wife of that mountain-like figure, Feng you mentioned?"

Guo Yunfan nodded, "Yes, Feng’s identity is special, and we’re not allowed to discuss it casually in private."

My God!

Zhao Wenwen’s eyes widened.

If President Lin’s background was already immense, wouldn’t her husband be even more formidable?

No wonder the Guo Family’s influence was so significant in Jiangcheng’s capital circles; the background of their acquaintance was indeed formidable!

But suddenly, Zhao Wenwen realized something, and she turned red with embarrassment, hitting Guo Yunfan on the arm and chiding him, "Why didn’t you tell me sister-in-law was President Lin? I almost brought makeup over."

As Tang Jun and the others who were following arrived at the doorway,

they saw the couple standing at the door. Qin Li’s wife recognized Zhao Wenwen and asked curiously, "Wenwen, why is your face red?"

Guo Yunfan stifled his laughter, "She was just saying it’s not polite to come without a gift, and she wanted to buy a set of high-end Bolaiya cosmetics for sister-in-law, but I stopped her."

"Pfft."

All those present burst into laughter.

Tang Jun’s wife laughed so hard she had to cover her mouth, "You were going to give sister-in-law a gift from her own company’s product line?"

"Hahaha."

Zhao Wenwen was utterly embarrassed, "Guo Yunfan, that’s too much!"
