Ye Chuchen did not take Ren Feifan to his office; instead, they went to a much larger office next door.
The entire office was brand new and decorated in a minimalist style.
From every detail, Ren Feifan could tell that this office had been designed especially for him.
"Master Ren, this will be your office from now on," Ye Chuchen said.
Ren Feifan nodded, quite satisfied with the design.
"I just got off the plane and I heard how well you’ve been running Feifan Pharmaceuticals. Good job," Ren Feifan complimented.
At his comment, Ye Chuchen modestly replied, "I can’t take all the credit. Our superior products are to thank. We only rolled out a fraction of it and it already caused a frenzy among consumers! There is a long line of investors outside, asking us if we need more capital."
With this, Ye Chuchen asked, "Master Ren, would you consider securing financing?"
Ren Feifan refused directly, "If the company needs money, tell me and I’ll solve it. Once we start taking outside investment, the company will no longer be pure, understand?"
"Actually, we don’t lack money right now. Once our product officially goes on the market, our cash flow will be plenty. Besides, government Discover more novels on NovelHub - your gateway to endless stories."
Afterwards, Ren Feifan discussed some matters regarding Feifan Pharmaceuticals with Ye Chuchen, and then he left straightaway.
Before leaving Capital City, Ren Feifan visited Aunt Ming’s restaurant and found it doing surprisingly brisk business. Security guards in uniforms were patrolling back and forth. This area had clearly become the safest in North Jinsha Road.
Ren Feifan had planned to help Aunt Ming cure her infertility during this visit, but to his surprise, she declined.
Aunt Ming told Ren Feifan that they were aging and did not want to have children anymore. They were quite content with their current life.
Ren Feifan could not insist. Thinking about it, they were right - they were both in their forties, having children at this age would indeed be quite challenging.
He would just visit them more often.
By evening, Ren Feifan planned to take the high-speed train back to Jiangnan Province overnight but discovered an unexpected guest at the restaurant.
Standing across the restaurant was an old man dressed in a Zhongshan suit. With his thin face, dark complexion, and bright eyes under his light eyebrows, his hair was somewhat white, but his posture was straight and he exuded a certain aura.
When Ren Feifan spotted the old man, his smile froze. He stood up and told Aunt Ming, "Aunt Ming, I’ll step out for a moment."
"Alright, Feifan. Be careful, there are more cars out at night."
Ren Feifan walked towards the old man, trying his best to control his emotions.
"Why did you find this place?"
Ren Feifan asked coldly as he walked up to the old man. His voice, slow and devoid of vitality, was like a thousand-year-old ice emitting a chilling aura.
The old man’s eyes held a complex expression as he turned around, remaining silent for a long while before saying, "I heard that the second young master has returned. I didn’t believe it at first, but now I do. Second, young Master, you..."
"Don’t call me the second young master!"
Ren Feifan interrupted directly!
The old man turned his head and sighed deeply. "The old master had no choice but to drive you out of the Ren Family. You know how things work in a big family. Many times, we are helpless."
Ren Feifan chuckled three times and turned to the old man, "So you came to mock me? Let me guess, do you represent the Ren Family... or do you represent the so-called ’First Clan Leader of Capital City’, Ren——Fei——Cheng!"
When Ren Feifan pronounced the name "Ren Feicheng", his body tensed, and a terrifying murderous intent fill the air!
A flood of unbearable memories from three years ago!
All because of one person!
That person was Ren Feicheng!
The old man was taken aback for a moment. His usually unruffled expression showed a hint of surprise. He didn’t expect Ren Feifan to emanate such intense murderous intent.
Is this still the same weak young master from three years ago?
Is this still the person who used to be bullied by others and never fought back? The one who was known as the number one waste of Capital City?
What exactly has he been through in the past three years that has caused such a massive transformation?
"Do you have anything else to say?"
Ren Feifan casually glanced at the old man, preparing to turn around and leave.
The old man felt like he was in a very passive position. As Ren Feifan walked away, he said directly, "Before going to the Hidden Gate, the clan leader asked me to give you a message."
Ren Feifan stopped in his tracks, asking indifferently, "What is it."
His voice was clear and calm.
"The clan leader advised you not to cross certain boundaries and to know when to stop. Out of brotherly love, he will not completely annihilate you."
The old man’s words elicited a bout of laughter from Ren Feifan.
Did Ren Feicheng think he owned the world?
The Inner Hidden Gate?
The Outer Hidden Gate?
One day, Ren Feifan vowed that he would shut both of these gates for good!
To make them tremble and fear him!
After laughing for a while, Ren Feifan regained his calm. With his back still towards the old man, he said:
"Then you can relay a message to Ren Feicheng from me."
The old man, not knowing why, felt a strong sense of confidence emanating from Ren Feifan. This confidence was so overwhelming it seemed capable of engulfing the world!
"Tell him: Three years ago, the Ren Family could not tolerate me. Three years later, the Ren Family no longer deserves me! His life, I, Ren Feifan, have claimed it!"
With said that, Ren Feifan turned into a lonely silhouette and vanished.
The old man remained, rooted to the spot.
He muttered Ren Feifan’s words under his breath, feeling an unprecedented sense of dominance.
After a long while, he looked up at the sky over Capital City, blanketed with dark clouds, and quietly said to himself, "Deeply buried ambitions remain sharp; when the storm gathers it spells a mighty force! Is this the calamity or the blessing of the Ren Family?"
Although Ren Feifan seemed unflustered when he left, only he knew the storm brewing inside him.
He no longer felt like returning to Jiangnan Province today.
All he wanted now was to drink, to drink heavily.
In Capital City, who else could accompany him in a drink?
The first person Ren Feifan thought of was Ye Qingcheng.
After their intimate encounter in her wooden house that day, she disappeared without a trace. He wondered how she was doing now.
Why was she avoiding him?
After pondering for a few seconds, Ren Feifan dialed Ye Chuchen’s number, "Tell me, has your sister, Ye Qingcheng, returned?"
Ye Chuchen paused at the other end of the line, sounding somewhat baffled.
"Master Ren, do you not only practice medicine but also divination?"
Ren Feifan frowned. "What do you mean by that?"
"My sister is returning tonight. She sold her car midway and decided to take a flight back. The flight is Air China AT12475. She asked me to pick her up at eight o’clock at the Capital City International Airport. I was just about to leave. Do you want to come with me?"
"Ye Chuchen, you don’t need to go. I’ll pick her up."
Ye Chuchen suddenly realized, gave a giggle, and said.
"Now that you mention it, I remember I have a meeting tonight. Master Ren, I’ll leave my sister in your hands."
