Urban All-Round Master

Chapter 1491: Chapter 1525: You Need to Show Restraint with This Kind of Thing

“What kind of secrets and energy do you think the Star Ring contains?”

On the soft, cozy bedside, Nangong Bing quietly leaned against the bed, playing with the Star Ring in her hand, repeatedly studying it, but each time getting disappointed, unable to observe anything further.

“Since we can’t discern anything, there’s no need to keep focusing on it.” Lin Zifeng took the Star Ring but couldn’t make out the energy contained within. However, he was a sensible person. Since he couldn’t grasp the energy and secret inside, why bother expending so much mental effort?

“No way!” Nangong Bing suddenly snatched the Star Ring from his hand, determined. “The Star Ring is a gift from you to me. Of course, I have to find out its secrets. Don’t worry, maybe I can’t find them now, but I definitely will in the future.”

Nangong Bing firmly believed that one day she would uncover the secrets of the Star Ring.

Lin Zifeng sighed silently, shaking his head helplessly.

The Star Ring could transform her from an ordinary woman into a powerful force verging on Sub-Saint level. Nangong Bing was completely unaware of this. In other words, whenever the Star Ring caused a transformation in her, her consciousness was entirely blocked by the Ring.

Lin Zifeng wasn’t foolish; naturally, he couldn’t tell her about this.

“Oh, Great Empress, how about we discuss something?” He intended to reach under the covers to feel those soft peaks, but Nangong Bing quickly brushed his hand away.

“What is it?” Nangong Bing tilted her head slightly, her alluring eyes sparkling softly.

“Uh… well, the thing is, it’s quite simple.” He withdrew his hand in frustration, contemplating but not knowing how to start. After all, it was a serious matter.

Nangong Bing looked at him curiously, coldly saying, “Hey, is there anything you’re embarrassed to say? Your face is so thick. What could make you so shy?”

Hmm… Lin Zifeng, Lin Zifeng. Are you pondering something trivial again?

Looking at you, I can’t help but wonder what major issue concerns you.

“Ha… It’s nothing big, just a few small matters.” Lin Zifeng jumped off the bed, waved his hand, lit a cigarette, and took a deep drag, turning his back as he looked solemn, unsure of how to explain.

“Then let me hear it. If I can help you, I will.” Nangong Bing blinked, instinctively pulling the covers to prevent exposure.

“Damn it! Screw it!”

Lin Zifeng gritted his teeth and suddenly turned, startling Nangong Bing, who exclaimed, “What are you doing?! You need to know moderation! Do you understand moderation?!”

“…” Lin Zifeng was frustrated.

Damn it, I’m not talking about that kind of thing with you. What’s going on in Nangong Bing’s head…

“What I want to say is, could you help me?” Lin Zifeng gathered his courage and finally confessed to Nangong Bing.

“Help you?”

Nangong Bing was stunned, her thoughts scattered by this sudden proposal.

Her eyes narrowed: “Help you? How would I help you?”

“Help me manage Huayu Group!”

Lin Zifeng spoke seriously: “What do you think if Huayu Group merges with Tianyu Group? And we implement a dual governance approach? What do you think?”

“No way, isn’t Liu Ruyan already the president of Huayu Group? Do you want me to take on the role of president at Huayu Group?”

“No. Huayu in Zhonghai City is still Huayu in Zhonghai City. I want you to come with me to Yanjing to manage the new Huayu and Tianyu,” Lin Zifeng said with a serious expression. “You should understand my situation. I don’t hold any grudge against Zhonghai City, so I wish to expand Huayu Group’s influence into Yanjing. Without an ideal candidate, it’s challenging to achieve that.”

“So you chose me, didn’t you?” Nangong Bing looked at him.

“Yes. I admit that Huayu Group’s current board members are impressive, and I admire Liu Ruyan’s business strategy. But this time, I can’t afford to lose. I can’t lose, so I hope Nan Tian Group’s venture into Yanjing has to be fully assured, at least to establish a foothold in Yanjing!” Lin Zifeng spoke with determination: “Can you help me?”

“Boom~”

The words “Can you help me?” utterly shattered Nangong Bing’s guarded heart.

She was hesitating, she was considering.

But Lin Zifeng knew he absolutely couldn’t fail this advance to Yanjing. If the collaboration with the Beiming Family failed, the Beiming Family would suffer severely, and the Mu Family might be removed from the scene.

He considered appointing Zhang Mengjie as the chairman of Yanjing Huayu, but this idea was impractical. Zhang Mengjie was already managing Nan Tian Group entirely and managing Huayu Group in Zhonghai City. She was already exhausted.

Forcing too many tasks upon her would only create major vulnerabilities, potentially causing Nan Tian Huayu Group to collapse entirely.

Liu Ruyan, despite having some shortcomings in business, if this fails, Nan Tian’s advance into Yanjing might become irretrievable.

So, Lin Zifeng could only place this responsibility on Nangong Bing.

Given Nangong Bing’s comprehension of business, he had reason to believe she could pave a genuine business path for him in Yanjing.

“Why choose me?” Nangong Bing pondered for a few seconds before eventually nodding to help Lin Zifeng.

“Because you understand me and we have mutual respect. Is that reason enough?” Lin Zifeng gently looked at her.

“Well… okay. When are you planning to enter the Yanjing market?” Nangong Bing lightly pursed her lips and said, “We have a branch of Tianyu in Yanjing, but the market there has already been divided by several influential families. Making a difference in Yanjing is quite challenging!”

“I know. Success depends on effort. As long as we are willing to put our hearts into it, I believe we will find a way in Yanjing.” Lin Zifeng understood Yanjing’s situation.

In Yanjing, most industries have been divided by the four major families and five major clans. After the four families were entirely wiped out by the clans, their industries fell into the hands of these clans.

Entering Yanjing is akin to snatching food from their mouths.

Disrupting financial paths is akin to killing parents!

“Notify me when you start moving into Yanjing,” Nangong Bing quietly nodded. Before agreeing to help Lin Zifeng, she was also conflicted because Tianyu Group was about to officially list in the United States. If she abandoned Tianyu Group’s listing plans for Lin Zifeng, it might encounter enormous obstacles. Investors and major buyers ready to acquire shares would abandon Tianyu Group…
