Chapter 503: The Land of the Immortals_2
It was precisely because of all these considerations that Rong Duoer was so eager to have her best friend spend the five million yuan—and then she could use this as an opportunity to create a livestreaming column, which might just become a hit.
But her best friend was naturally frugal to a fault; getting her to spend the five million yuan all at once was practically harder than climbing to heaven.
Not willing to give up just yet, Rong Duoer looked at her friend sitting in front of her and said helplessly:
"Your boyfriend is so rich; he can't be just toying with you, right? Otherwise, why wouldn't he see you on the weekends?"
Ye Xiaomeng immediately put on a stern face, replying with utmost seriousness:
"Who said Chu Mo hasn't been looking for me? He called me yesterday to invite me to Guang'an Building to have fun. He said there would be some martial arts competition there, but I'm not interested in all that fighting and killing, so I didn't want to go. Duoer, don't talk nonsense."
Upon hearing this, Rong Duoer's eyes lit up. She was currently stressed about not having any material for her livestream. If she wanted to make it big, the usual broadcasts were no longer viable—she needed to feature something more novel.
Even though a martial arts competition sounded unreliable, her livestream viewers were mostly boys. She might not like fighting, but that didn't mean the boys wouldn't enjoy it.
With this thought, Rong Duoer grabbed her friend by the wrist and said:
"Quick, right now, immediately, let's head to Guang'an Building. When does the competition start? Aren't we already late?"
Ye Xiaomeng wanted to retort, but she was already being dragged out of the dorm room by her friend.
Both girls were blessed with exceptional looks: Ye Xiaomeng was herself a top scorer in terms of beauty at the music college, and Rong Duoer, being a beauty live streamer, also had a stunning appearance. The two friends, chattering and laughing their way, made for a lovely scene as they moved across the music college campus.
They took a cab straight to the Guang'an Building. Upon arrival, they found the entire building was on lockdown, with security guards and a number of tall men in black suits guarding every corner.
Seeing the situation before her, Rong Duoer's eyes shone brightly. Such a scene indicated that there must be a heated martial arts competition inside. She excitedly took out her phone and started her live broadcast.
Even though it wasn't her usual broadcasting time, Rong Duoer couldn't care less. She created a live room and pointed her camera at the heavily guarded Gemini Towers Building.
Since she had just started the broadcast, there were only a few viewers in her live room, so Rong Duoer didn't bother to waste words on them. Instead, she focused her phone on the building. But in no time, her actions caught the attention of the surrounding security personnel, and soon, two towering men dressed in black, each at least two meters tall, headed her way!
"Ladies, Guang'an Building is closed to the public today, and we apologize for any inconvenience. If you don't have an invitation, please leave immediately!"
The two tall men stood a head and shoulders above the two little girls from the music college. Their imposing presence seemed to emanate a powerful sense of pressure, making both Rong Duoer and Ye Xiaomeng feel an urge to flee deep within their hearts.
But at that moment, Rong Duoer glanced at her phone and saw her live room fan count increasing. Not wanting to miss this golden opportunity, she whispered to her friend:
"Xiao Meng, isn't your boyfriend inside? Get him to come out and pick us up!"
Hearing this, Ye Xiaomeng, who had just snapped back to her senses, hurriedly took out her phone. She scrolled through her contacts and soon found a name: Jia Tianze.
She remembered that he had claimed to be the general manager of Tianxin Building, and the middle-aged man had once told her that she could call him anytime she encountered any trouble.
After hesitating for a moment and seeing the impatient look on the faces of the two men in black, she immediately dialed the number.
After just a few rings, the call was answered, though the background noise suggested that the person on the other end was quite busy!
The voice that greeted her, as always, was filled with respect, easing Ye Xiaomeng's slight anxiety.
Holding the phone, she said cautiously:
"It's like this: yesterday, Chu Ge told me there was some martial arts competition at Guang'an Building and invited me over. Now I've come with my bestie, but we've been stopped outside. They're asking for an invitation, which Chu Ge didn't give me, and I don't know what to do, so I'm troubling you...!"
"I'm in a meeting right now. Ye Miss, pass the phone to the security guard, I'll speak to them... Never mind, wait a moment, I'll come over and pick you up right away!"
As the general manager of both Guang'an Building and Tianxin Building, and managing nearly a hundred billion yuan in assets, a busy Jia Tianze was expected.
Chu Mo had mandated that this martial arts event proceed without a single hiccup, and as the person responsible, Jia Tianze had plenty of matters to attend to.
Even though he was currently hosting a crucial meeting with all the top executives, and despite having many important tasks to delegate, as soon as he heard that Ye Xiaomeng had been barred from entering the building, he hesitated for only a moment before foregoing all other concerns, opting to personally attend to this young lady.
Three minutes later, followed by a number of high-ranking hotel officials, Jia Tianze arrived at the entrance to the building. He immediately spotted the two elegant young women and hastily jogged over to them.
