Chapter 1071 - 114: Where is Shanshan’s Boyfriend?
Chapter 1071: Chapter 114: Where is Shanshan’s Boyfriend?But it seemed that during this trip, Li Yifei and his companions always found a turning point at the most critical moments. Unexpectedly, they stumbled upon a type of fungus under a rock wall. Hungry and in haste, they did not know if it was poisonous but decided to eat it regardless. The fungus turned out to be quite delicious, containing water that could stave off both hunger and thirst.
Replenished, the three continued their
Most importantly, all of Li Yifei’s assets were frozen. Resolving this issue was a priority. Although the Wei Family had lost, they wouldn’t be inclined to help resolve Li Yifei’s issues, preferring to see his family remain restrained.
In light of these matters, Li Yifei decided to take a high-profile approach, consolidating all his companies under the newly formed Li Group, appointing himself as the chairman, Xu Yingying as the president, and He Fangqing as CFO of the group, while other departments were managed by capable individuals.
Like Xiao Ling’er and Zheng Yuling, they also hold positions in Li Yifei’s company, but Li Yifei doesn’t grant them too much power. Despite being family, Li Yifei knows well that a big company needs genuinely capable people to manage it. Therefore, the general managers of his subsidiary companies are all professional managers he hired to ensure healthy development of the company.
Although the bank funds are still in processing and cannot be used right now, Li Yifei’s family has substantial assets. Thus, Li Yifei decided to take out a portion to distribute a large bonus to his employees, settling their hearts and letting them know that following Li Yifei was a prospect-filled choice.
That night, Li Yifei also invited several important municipal leaders to his house for dinner. Nowadays, regulations on hosting banquets are strict, even mayors and the Municipal Party Secretary are extremely cautious, but having a simple home-cooked meal at Li Yifei’s house was nothing out of the ordinary.
In the past few days, these leaders had distanced themselves from Li Yifei’s household. However, this time, a few crucial figures still showed up.
"Yifei, we really couldn’t help much during this period..." Song Zhentao began, apologetically.
Li Yifei quickly interrupted, saying, "Secretary Song, you’re being too formal. Under the pressure from the Three Great Clans, it was truly impossible for you to confront them. That you could come to dine at my house already gives me, Li Yifei, a lot of face."
"Yifei, for that statement alone, I’m willing to be your friend, and as long as I’m in Mile City, I will do my utmost to support the Li family."
Seeing Mile City as his base, Li Yifei couldn’t afford to offend these leaders. Hence, he was very polite at that moment, and everyone enjoyed pleasant conversations. Those municipal leaders also promised to help Li Yifei resolve the issues left over from earlier as soon as possible.
Wei Qianjun, Gu Yanan, and another person from Wei Qianjun’s side had all left Mile City by then. Staying in Mile City was no longer safe for them, and they believed that if they stayed, Li Yifei would definitely make a move against them. Thus, they dared not stay; they could contend with Li Yifei, but they certainly didn’t want to confront him directly due to the high risk.
With their absence, Li Yifei naturally wouldn’t let go of their industries. Now, he began to eat into their businesses. If the Li family wanted to grow and strengthen in Mile City, the more good resources, the better.
The Li family’s mansion was now completely constructed, and after discussing with everyone, Li Yifei decided to hold a housewarming party, inviting all influential figures in Mile City to attend. From then on, the Li family would have a high-profile presence, ensuring that nobody would dare to look down on them again.
During the day, Li Yifei was busy, and nights remained sensual. After several wild days, everyone finally vented their accumulated emotions and returned to normal, again spending every evening with Li Yifei.
As everyone’s emotions settled, Xu Yingying suddenly remembered an important issue. One evening after dinner, while sitting in the living room chatting, she turned to Xu Shanshan and asked, "Shanshan, have you got a boyfriend?"
Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan’s hearts skipped a beat. These past few days everyone had been busy with all sorts of things, and they had temporarily forgotten about this issue.
Xu Shanshan reacted quickly, smiling cheekily, "What do you think?"
"Don’t try to fool me. You think I don’t know what’s going on?" As soon as this topic arose, Xu Yingying blushed and glared at Xu Shanshan, demanding, "Who exactly is your boyfriend?"
Xu Shanshan continued to play dumb, saying, "What boyfriend? I don’t have one." Then she looked towards Su Mengxin, who was embracing Ye Yunzhu’s daughter, playing with the little girl with a totally enraptured expression, her affection for children growing stronger the longer she was pregnant. Now, she loved nothing more than holding Ye Yunzhu’s child or playing with Little Yifei, her maternal instincts growing ever stronger.
"Still pretending?" Xu Yingying was getting annoyed. "We have such a strong emotional connection, I already know, huh, you think I wouldn’t know whether you have a boyfriend or not?"
"Hehe, you knew? I thought you never noticed," Xu Shanshan suddenly took on a very mischievous demeanor, not at all flustered.
"Humph, and you didn’t even tell me, leaving me in the dark for so long."
Xu Shanshan pouted, saying, "How dare I let you know? Tell me, whenever you and brother-in-law are intimate, I feel it too, just like I’m doing it with my brother-in-law. How could you feel comfortable knowing that?"
