Watching Xu Jianglong disappear, Xu Yunji’s face darkened.
Although the discord between Uncle Xu Xuanqiang’s branch and his father Xu Xuanyi had long existed, Xu Yunji still underestimated the other side’s shamelessness.
He stood pondering for a moment, then decided to call Xu Yixue to inform her about the situation.
After the call connected, Xu Yixue immediately asked, “Xiao Ji, did you get the item?”
“I got it,” Xu Yunji replied, his tone sounding somewhat cold.

He paused before adding, “I need to tell you something.
Xu Jianglong has come to Zhonghai.”
“What’s he doing here?” Xu Yixue was clearly surprised.
“They want to reap the fruits of our labor…” Xu Yunji briefly described what had just happened.
After listening, Xu Yixue also felt angered and said coldly, “How can they be so shameless?”
“Sister, this matter involves huge interests.
They won’t give up easily.

How should we deal with it?” Xu Yunji asked.
The priority was not to be angry but to be prepared to respond.
Xu Yixue understood the stakes and did not dare underestimate them, so she began to ponder.
What Xu Jianglong said was indeed a fatal weakness for Yifan Beauty Company, and it would be difficult to address properly.
How exactly the three products’ formulas came about, she had no idea how to explain to the vast number of consumers.
Could she just tell the truth and say Xu Fan was a “Cultivator”?
If said outright, whether others would believe it was secondary; the main issue was the repercussions such a statement could cause, potentially more severe than losing Yifan Beauty Company.
Therefore, if the Xu family presented the matter more convincingly, creating a credible yet indistinguishable research team narrative, the public would definitely trust the authority of experts more.
If it really came down to arguing, Xu Yixue was from the Xu family; the idea that she could have stolen the family research team’s formula was indeed plausible, leading the general public to trust the Xu family’s narrative more readily.
Even if the adversaries’ plot ultimately failed, during the legal proceedings in court, not only would it waste a considerable amount of time and energy, but it would also damage the product’s reputation, thereby losing consumer trust.
Naturally, sales would decline.
With the current market momentum, the losses incurred in the meantime would be immeasurable.
After a period of silence, Xu Yixue had some ideas and responded, “Xiao Ji, keep this to yourself for now.
I’ll ask Dad first.”
“Understood.”
After hanging up the phone, Xu Yixue stopped the filming at the set and went to a corner to dial Xu Xuanyi’s number.
Once the call connected, she said, “Dad.”
“Is that you, Xue?
What made you think of calling your old dad?” Xu Xuanyi said with a smile.
He knew his daughter was busy working in Zhonghai and also taking care of her child, so she rarely called home.
She had made a call a few days ago, and now another – this was out of the ordinary, likely because she had encountered a problem.
After all, he kept an eye on the situation in Zhonghai.
In recent days, Yifan Beauty Company’s products were selling well, and Xu Yixue must have been extremely busy.
She wouldn’t call him without reason.
“What, you’re not happy when your daughter calls you?”
Xu Yixue did not intend to directly tell Xu Xuanyi about the issue, worried it would cause him concern and anger.
Her father was the Xu Family Head; dealing with such matters would certainly not be easy, so she decided to approach the subject indirectly.
Pretending to be casual, she asked, “Dad, what has Uncle been up to recently?”
“Why do you ask?”
Xu Xuanyi was somewhat puzzled, but he answered his daughter anyway, “I’m not too sure about his activities, either.
Even if I asked, he wouldn’t tell me.
However, I did see him leave with a group of people this morning.
Heaven knows what he was up to.”
“Dad, I was just asking casually.
Oh, the people from the production crew are calling me.
I’ll stop here for now and call home again tonight if I have time,” Xu Yixue said before hanging up.
Seeing her still in such a hurry, Xu Xuanyi couldn’t help but smile helplessly and shake his head, not delving deeper.
Meanwhile, Xu Yixue’s face shifted with uncertain thoughts…
Xu Xuanqiang took people with him?
“`
Xu Jianglong was probably the vanguard, while Xu Xuanqiang and his people were the main force; they must be heading for Zhonghai City.
Considering the time, they should have already arrived.
Therefore, with time pressing, if they couldn’t strike first, they would certainly find themselves in a very passive position.
Once Xu Yixue realized this, her thoughts raced as she quickly considered how to break the deadlock.
A few minutes passed and Xu Yixue slowly exhaled, her face showing a few shades less of worry.
Regarding business matters, it was certain that the President of Zhonghai Commerce Association, Zhonghai’s wealthiest man Lu Chennong, was clear about them.
After dialing Lu Chennong’s number, Xu Yixue explained the situation directly and shared her response plan.
Lu Chennong, adept in these affairs, understood immediately.
He ran the plan through his mind and noticed only a few minor flaws.
So, he offered a few small suggestions to make the plan more perfect.
After the call ended, Lu Chennong couldn’t help but lament, “Xu Xuanyi really knows how to raise a daughter; both beautiful and smart, and extremely capable.
Marrying her would be a profit, Elder Xu sure is lucky.”
Following his sigh, Lu Chennong began implementing the plan.
He created a chat group on WeChat, added Black Dragon and Sun Lihua to the chat, sent a voice message detailing the current situation and the response plan, asking them to prepare for action.
After dealing with this, Lu Chennong called his secretary and gave him specific instructions.
At the same time, at Zhonghai City Airport, a plane from Shenzhen City landed smoothly on the runway.
Under the gentle reminders of the flight attendants, a group of conspicuous people walked down, clearly together.
They all looked like successful people, dressed in suits, even the women among them wore this professional attire.
The age of these individuals was generally on the older side, all above thirty, with even two elderly people wearing reading glasses and with graying hair.
Behind this group, four Ancient Martial Artists with bulging temples followed, all large and robust, with a cold and alert look in their eyes, clearly bodyguards.
There was also a middle-aged man, about forty years old, strong and commanding, wearing a specially tailored suit, hands behind his back, striding at the forefront of the group.
“Zhonghai…
I have arrived.”
Gazing at the red letters “Welcome to Zhonghai” on the electronic display, the middle-aged man murmured with a hint of mockery and then walked toward the exit.
Along the way, the group retrieved their checked luggage, and upon leaving the airport, Xu Jianglong was already waiting outside, calling out to them as he approached.
“Young Master Long!”
“Young Master Long!”
“…”
Many people within the group called out with reverence.
The middle-aged man walking at the front was Xu Xuanyi’s elder cousin, the eldest of Xu Family’s generation with the character Xuan in their names, Xu Yixue’s uncle, Xu Jianglong’s father, Xu Xuanqiang.
Xu Xuanqiang glanced at his son without breaking stride and said, “Get in the car first, then we can talk.”
Xu Jianglong nodded, leading everyone to the parking area, where they found several rented Porsche Cayennes with dedicated drivers, who, dressed in professional attire and with smiles on their faces, opened the car doors and courteously welcomed the guests inside.
