Chapter 206: Not Evoking Jealousy Means Mediocrity!

Yida Square.

The livestream had concluded, and Chu Yufei was busy tidying up the scene with her team.

A black Mercedes S-Class arrived, stopping nearby. A middle-aged driver stepped out, opened the rear door, and a middle-aged man emerged from the car.

The middle-aged man glanced around, saw Chu Yufei, and walked toward her.

"Feifei." the middle-aged man called out.

Chu Yufei turned her head and was surprised: "Daddy, why are you here?"

The middle-aged man was indeed her father, Chu Haotian, the head of Yun Chu Group and the Patriarch of the Chu Family in Yun City.

"I saw your livestream, so I came over to see you," Chu Haotian smiled.

Chu Yufei seemed to be annoyed by something: "Daddy, if you’re here to persuade me to quit, then forget about it."

Chu Haotian had always disapproved of her career choice, wanting her to return to Yun Chu Group to help manage the family business, but Chu Yufei was rebellious and didn’t listen to him.

Chu Haotian said, "Don’t misunderstand, I’m not here to persuade you to come home this time, I’m here for your boss."

Chu Yufei paused, slightly surprised: "Mr. Lin? Daddy, why are you looking for Mr. Lin? You’re not asking him to fire me, are you?"

Chu Haotian smiled, "Don’t worry, I just greatly admire Lin Fan. Where is he, can you introduce me?"

Chu Yufei understood, it turned out that Chu Haotian wanted to use her connection to meet Lin Fan!

As the head of Yun Chu Group, Chu Haotian was a prominent figure in Yun City, usually receiving attention from others, yet this time, he actively sought to meet Lin Fan.

Mr. Lin is indeed impressive.

Chu Yufei asked, "Daddy, may I ask what your purpose is for meeting Mr. Lin?"

Chu Haotian chuckled, "How much do you know about this Mr. Lin?"

Chu Yufei replied, "I met him a few days ago at He Dahong’s party. That night, he announced a ten-billion charity investment, so I approached him for a collaboration. As for other things, I’m not very familiar, nor do I need to be."

Chu Haotian replied, "From what I know, he became the chairman of Celestial Aviation yesterday, and on the same day, Celestial Aviation’s market value skyrocketed by ten billion. Today, Celestial Aviation’s stock price opened with a surge and is now at the limit; its market value has increased by another ten billion. Besides, as mentioned in today’s livestream, he acquired Zhou Tian Mansion for a hundred billion."

Chu Yufei was stunned; she really didn’t know Lin Fan was so formidable. In addition to acquiring Zhou Tian Mansion, he also acquired Celestial Aviation?

Chu Haotian said, "There’s a rumor he’s the son of the Kyoto Lin Family, and this possibility is quite high."

Chu Yufei was astounded, "What, the Kyoto Lin Family?"

The Kyoto Lin Family, a family of monumental influence!

If Lin Fan really belongs to the Kyoto Lin Family, his identity would be quite impressive.

Chu Haotian said, "Now you understand why I want to meet him. If he truly is from the Kyoto Lin Family, forming an alliance with him would immensely benefit Yun Chu Group in the future. Even if he isn’t part of the Kyoto Lin Family, given his extravagant behavior, he must be a tycoon, and becoming friends with him wouldn’t have any drawbacks."

Chu Haotian’s plan was pretty shrewd.

Chu Yufei coldly replied, "I get it, this time you’re not opposing my charity work because of Mr. Lin."

Chu Haotian didn’t actually support her passion; he only allowed her to stay in the Mortal Charity Fund because he wanted to establish a connection with Lin Fan. Wasn’t he just using her?

Chu Haotian awkwardly smiled, "Feifei, Daddy was wrong in pressuring you before, and I will reflect on my actions. Regarding Mr. Lin, I hope you can facilitate an introduction."

Chu Yufei coldly said, "We’ll see, I have to get busy and can’t talk further. Do as you please."

Chu Yufei walked away.

However, Chu Haotian began to smile. He knew this daughter well; she was cold outside but warm inside, and she would definitely help because, after all, he was her father.

Thinking about the chance to meet Lin Fan soon put Chu Haotian at ease.

In Yun City’s business circles, there were quite a few people like Chu Haotian who wanted to connect with Lin Fan.

Yet, as the saying goes, absence of envy signifies mediocrity; similarly, many viewed Lin Fan with hostility, perceiving him as a threat.

Feng Wanshan topped that list.

Shengshi Group, chairman’s office.

Feng Wanshan sat in his chair, listening to his trusted subordinate’s report.

"Chairman, today in the charity event, Lin Fan revealed the acquisition of Zhou Tian Mansion for a hundred billion. Following this news, Celestial Aviation stocks continued their surge and are now at the limit, with another ten billion increase to its market value. Celestial Aviation’s current market value reaches seven hundred billion Huaxia Coins," the subordinate reported.

Feng Wanshan jumped up, gritting his teeth, "Damn it..."

If this continues, Mortal Group’s market value might soon surpass one trillion, approaching Shengshi Group.

In Yun City, the three trillion-dollar conglomerates are Yida Group, Zhongtong Group, and Shengshi Group, with market values of 1.8 trillion, 1.5 trillion, and 1.3 trillion respectively.

Lin Fan’s Mortal Group naturally had some distance from these three giants, but at this pace, catching up with Shengshi Group was only a six hundred billion gap away.

Feng Wanshan felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.

"Lin Fan’s identity is mysterious. Rumor has it he is the son of the Kyoto Lin Family, although some channels suggest the Lin Family has denied this. However, it seems ineffective, as it only makes people believe more in Lin Fan being of the Lin Family, which is also the reason for the surge in Celestial Aviation stocks today," the subordinate analyzed.

Feng Wanshan sneered, "Kyoto Lin Family? He’s nothing from there!"

The subordinate curiously asked, "Chairman, do you know his real identity?"

Feng Wanshan didn’t respond, just waved him off, "Go gather them for a meeting."

The subordinate responded, "Alright." and left.

Feng Wanshan then picked up his phone and called Anna, "Are you free to talk?"

Anna replied, "Go ahead."

Feng Wanshan asked, "What have you found out about Lin Beixuan?"

Anna said, "I’ve been observing Lin Fan’s actions recently but haven’t noticed any contact with Lin Beixuan."

Feng Wanshan suddenly got excited, "I need to know Lin Beixuan’s identity; so many days have passed without progress, what are you doing?"

Anna coldly replied, "I was injured that night by Muay Thai Li San, and I’m recuperating at Yunding Manor."

Feng Wanshan offered not a single word of concern, immediately demanding results. This upset Anna since she was his adopted daughter.

This was unlike Feng Wanshan’s past behavior; previously, he showed great care and affection towards her as his adopted daughter.

Feng Wanshan, upon hearing this, said nothing comforting, only, "Find out quickly. I’ve spent five million helping you trace your father’s whereabouts, so don’t let me down. That’s it!"

Feng Wanshan hung up the phone.

Soon afterward, his subordinate knocked and entered, bringing in several more people, all trusted aides of Feng Wanshan.

"Come and sit down, let’s discuss how to deal with Mortal Group. I want Mortal’s stock price to fall!" Feng Wanshan’s eyes showed a menacing look.

Yunding Manor.

After the call was abruptly ended, Anna tossed the phone aside in frustration.

Although her godfather’s attitude annoyed her, she also felt pressure. Regarding her father’s whereabouts, her godfather had always helped without seeking credit, and yet now he used this matter to pressure her for the first time!

All for dealing with Lin Fan!

Indeed, she owed her godfather a lot. The funds Feng Wanshan spent to find her father were far beyond five million.

Anna frowned, sinking into deep thought.
