The appearance of Lantian Yuanyuan instantly chilled the hearts of those present, stripping them of even the courage to leave. They were well aware of the reputation of this legendary figure, the founder of a glorious enterprise. Provoking the sister of such a godlike man would obviously lead to dire consequences. Moreover, from his tone, it seemed that the sinister-looking man before them also held a remarkable status.
“You are the founder of Fengyun Enterprise, an undefeated legend in Beijing’s business circle. I never expected someone like you, a man of such prestige, would appear in a place like Yinhai Xuan, just like a common wastrel. Wouldn’t this damage your reputation if word got out?”
Xiao Yufan’s lips twitched slightly as he looked at the composed, self-assured man in the plain green robe. He hadn’t expected that Lan Yue would have such a connection to this legendary figure in Beijing’s business world.
“This isn’t exactly a place for romantic escapades, so what’s wrong with me being here? Surprisingly, a young master of the Situ family hanging out in a bar—it’s quite different from what people say about you outside.”
Lantian Yuanyuan’s expression remained unchanged as he exchanged words with Xiao Yufan, showing no emotion. However, Lan Yue could sense the subtle fluctuations within her brother’s heart.
Although they had never met, both were aware that Fengyun Enterprise and Huihuang were destined not to be allies. The reason Xiao Yufan recognized Lantian Yuanyuan was because he had already studied him thoroughly. The mention of the Situ family sent another shockwave through the crowd. Some influential people began to suspect something and remained silently watching the unfolding confrontation.
Fengyun Enterprise held a prominent position in Beijing, often mentioned alongside Lingyun Enterprise as the twin rising stars of the city’s business scene. Fengyun’s annual revenue could rival Huihuang’s, making it a formidable competitor.
Lan Yue gazed at the two men, a faint bitter smile flickering across her lips. Though she didn’t know Xiao Yufan well, he was the first man, aside from her brother, to stir warm feelings in her heart. She didn’t want these two exceptional individuals to clash.
“It seems like the business scene in Beijing is about to become more exciting. I wonder whether Qing Yuanfeng is ready. The bold reforms of Huihuang have given me a refreshing new perspective!”
Under his plain green robe, Lantian Yuanyuan’s expression turned slightly playful. The business circle in Beijing had been too quiet for too long. With Huihuang’s involvement, the existing balance would gradually be disrupted. He was eager to see who would emerge victorious in the upcoming three-way rivalry.
“Huihuang was once a legend and will remain an unsurpassable force in the future. I’m really looking forward to meeting the two legendary figures of Beijing’s business world.”
Meeting Lantian Yuanyuan’s sharp gaze head-on, Xiao Yufan did not flinch. He knew that Huihuang’s expansion would inevitably bring friction with Fengyun, so he was eager to understand the man before him.
“I’m afraid Huihuang can’t even escape its current constraints. Today is different from the past. Even though Huihuang once stood at the pinnacle, it is now just a fleeting brilliance in the past. How can something outdated shine again?”
Gently stroking Lan Yue’s hair, Lantian Yuanyuan’s warm profile was touched by a hint of a smile. That he had founded Fengyun Enterprise was proof enough of the immense power this man possessed.
“That’s not necessarily true. Since Huihuang once reached the summit, it can definitely create another legend. There’s no doubt about that.”
Xiao Yufan’s gaze remained resolute as usual. Suddenly, he realized that taking over Huihuang might not be such a bad thing—it would at least keep his life from becoming too dull. For Huihuang to break through its barriers, it needed external motivation.
“I’m looking forward to Huihuang’s resurgence. However, don’t trip over something minor. There are certainly more people than just me who have their eyes on Huihuang!”
Lantian Yuanyuan laughed heartily. Xiao Yufan’s rebellious spirit suited his taste. He could already envision the turbulence about to shake Beijing’s business world. Since both Huihuang and Lingyun had already made their moves, how could he possibly remain idle?
“Thanks for the warning, but those insignificant players will never shake Huihuang’s foundation. I think as long as Fengyun and Lingyun don’t act directly, Huihuang won’t collapse before it even has a chance to grow. Don’t you agree?”
Xiao Yufan didn’t take Lantian Yuanyuan’s warning too seriously, but his words carried a subtle probing tone. At this point, Huihuang couldn’t afford a direct confrontation with Fengyun, so he simply wanted to understand what the other man was thinking.
“Don’t worry. I wouldn’t stoop to underhanded tactics. Defeating Huihuang head-on, however, sounds quite tempting…”
Their eyes met, sparks flying in the air between them. Both men smiled faintly, and even Lan Yue, watching silently, couldn’t tell what had just passed between them. But one thing she was certain of was that a fierce battle between these two titans was inevitable…
