Chapter 1911: Play a Yang plot

~8 min read 1,545 words

Lai Qinghua's words made Ye Chen thoughtful.

What he was thinking about was not whether he should borrow the energy of his maternal grandfather's family to achieve himself in the future. He was thinking that the higher he went in this world, the narrower the road became. If he wanted the Ye family to stand at the pinnacle of the world, then one day in the future, he would inevitably have to meet the An family on a narrow road.

He couldn't help but think, if one day in the future he really met the An family on a narrow road, would the An family be an enemy or a friend?

After all, the An family was currently one of the top three families in the world. If Ye Chen wanted to realize his father's last wish, he would inevitably have to make the Ye family stand higher than these three families.

If the three families were unwilling to see a newcomer surpass them, it might even trigger a life-and-death battle between the new king and the old king.

Seeing Ye Chen suddenly silent, Lai Qinghua roughly guessed what Ye Chen was thinking, so he said earnestly, "Young Master Ye, among the top three families, the Rothschilds have had a foundation in this world for a full three hundred years. Their scale has long exceeded the vast majority of countries in this world and is so powerful that no one can see their full picture. And behind the Saudi royal family in the Middle East is the support of the entire country, and neither financial power, material resources, nor military power can be compared to by ordinary families. So, the An family is actually the weakest among these three families."

Speaking of this, Lai Qinghua sighed, "Although the An family is the most powerful Chinese family in this world, it is the weakest one in the situation of three kingdoms. Over the years, the other two families have also had the intention to suppress the An family and squeeze it out of the three families. So, according to my speculation, the An family's days in the future will not be easy either. Joining forces with the An family will be of great benefit to you and to the An family."

Ye Chen smiled noncommittally and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Old Mr. Lai. One day in the future, I will definitely have to face the An family. We will talk about the specifics when we truly meet."

Lai Qinghua knew that Ye Chen had his own ideas, so he nodded lightly and said, "If you want to meet the An family one day, Young Master Ye, I can help you bridge the gap."

"Good!" Ye Chen thanked him, "Then thank you, Old Mr. Lai!"

Lai Qinghua waved his hand, then changed the subject and said to Ye Chen, "By the way, Young Master Ye, I have another uninvited request; I hope you can do me a favor."

Ye Chen said without hesitation, "Old Mr. Lai, please speak."

Lai Qinghua hesitated for a moment and sighed, "I have a good friend named Fei Jianzhong. He is one of the 200 participants in this auction."

Ye Chen smiled slightly and nodded, "I know this person; I have seen his information."

Actually, Ye Chen not only knew Fei Jianzhong but also knew his granddaughter, Fei Kexin.

However, Ye Chen didn't mention that he knew of Fei Kexin's existence in front of Lai Qinghua.

Lai Qinghua sighed lightly at this time and said earnestly, "On the way here, I calculated a hexagram for Old Fei. The hexagram shows that his trip to Jin Ling this time has some dangers in his future..."

Speaking of this, Lai Qinghua said somewhat self-reproachfully, "He decided to come to Jin Ling to participate in the auction because of my influence. If he encounters any danger because of this, I truly cannot shirk the responsibility. So I hope Young Master Ye can pay a little attention to him. In case something happens suddenly, I hope Young Master Ye can lend a helping hand."

Ye Chen couldn't help but frown and asked, "Old Mr. Lai, I wonder if you have any more detailed clues? For example, the danger you just mentioned, what aspect is it in? Do I need to watch out for accidents, or watch out for villains harming him?"

Lai Qinghua laughed at himself and said, "The hexagram can only see good or bad luck; it cannot see more detailed content. His hexagram has both good and bad luck. I can't say for sure what kind of result it is."

Subsequently, Lai Qinghua added, "However, he won't stay in Jin Ling for too long. After participating in the auction, he will probably have to return to the United States immediately, regardless of success or failure. So it's just these few days that I need you to worry about, Young Master Ye."

Ye Chen nodded and said, "Since there is a bad omen in the hexagram, I estimate that he might not be able to bid for the Rejuvenation Pill."

Upon hearing this, Lai Qinghua was slightly startled, then laughed at himself, "You are right. For such a divine medicine as the Rejuvenation Pill, if anyone can obtain it, it must be a sign of great luck in the hexagram. It seems that Jianzhong is destined not to have the Rejuvenation Pill this time..."

Speaking of this, Lai Qinghua sighed, "He is old. He might be the oldest among the 200 people participating in the Rejuvenation Pill auction this time. If he can't bid for the Rejuvenation Pill this time, I'm afraid he won't have much time left."

Hearing this, Ye Chen had a few more points of admiration for Fei Kexin.

This woman really had a set of methods. At the very least, under her human favor offensive, he had long ago decided that if her grandfather couldn't bid for the Rejuvenation Pill, he would send him half a Blood-Dispersing Heart-Saving Pill to let him live for two more years.

Combined with Lai Qinghua's words, it could basically be determined that even if this Fei Jianzhong had any sudden accident in Jin Ling this time, with this half of his Blood-Dispersing Heart-Saving Pill, it would probably just be a false alarm.

Ye Chen knew clearly that she was just trying to engage in a human favor offensive, and he knew clearly that these human favor offensives combined were far from worth half a Blood-Dispersing Heart-Saving Pill.

But Ye Chen always felt in his heart that if he didn't return this favor and kept owing Fei Kexin, he would definitely feel very uncomfortable.

This was Fei Kexin's brilliance.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that since this was the case, he might as well play a Yang plot with Fei Kexin, which could be considered an eye for an eye.

So, he smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth and said to Lai Qinghua, "Don't worry, Old Mr. Lai, I will pay more attention."

Lai Qinghua cupped his hands at Ye Chen and said respectfully, "I thank Young Master Ye."

After chatting with Lai Qinghua for a while and drinking a few cups of tea, Ye Chen said goodbye and left.

After leaving Lai Qinghua's room, he directly took out his phone and made a call to Fei Kexin.

Fei Kexin was soaking in the bathtub in the presidential suite at this time. Suddenly receiving Ye Chen's call, she was startled for a moment, then hurriedly sat up, adjusted her breathing, and then connected the call, saying with a smile, "Mr. Ye, what made you think of calling me at this time?"

Ye Chen smiled and asked her, "Is Miss Zhan busy?"

Fei Kexin smiled, "Not busy. What instructions does Mr. Ye have?"

Ye Chen then said, "It's like this: I know that Miss Zhan must have helped a lot behind the scenes for Churan to go to the United States to study in the master class. Owing you such a big favor, I really feel somewhat ashamed."

Fei Kexin was overjoyed, but her tone was very calm, "Mr. Ye, please don't be so polite. We are all friends; why mention such a small matter?"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Miss Zhan, there happens to be a very private auction at Buckingham Palace the day after tomorrow. I happen to have a VIP invitation letter in my hand. If you are interested, you can come and take a look."

Upon hearing this, Fei Kexin was so shocked that she couldn't speak.

She originally thought that Ye Chen would never take the initiative to expose his identity in front of her, let alone take the initiative to mention any information related to the Rejuvenation Pill.

She even thought that if her grandfather came away empty-handed at this auction, she would definitely have to thicken her skin and take the initiative to beg Ye Chen, and by then she would have to muster the courage to speak openly.

However, she never dreamed that Ye Chen would take the initiative to invite her to participate in the Rejuvenation Pill auction!

And it was as a VIP!

This caught her off guard... ===== CHAPTER 1912 =====
