Beautiful CEO's Top Expert

Although Ye Xunhuan hadn't experienced the Holy War, he knew how terrifying it could be if it were to break out.

After all, the Holy War was a deadly battle between the elites of the East and the West. To become a leader of the Holy War, strength was essential, but one must also possess enough foundation.

Otherwise, who would submit to you!

That the Summerhou Clan could become one of the leaders of the Holy War shows what kind of foundation they possess.

Previously, Ye Xunhuan thought he already had a high opinion of the Summerhou Clan, but hearing Olivia's words, he realized he had underestimated them!

"You're not joking, are you?" Ye Xunhuan looked at Olivia in disbelief and said, "The Summerhou Clan is actually a leader of the Holy War?"

"Do you think I need to joke about something like this?" Olivia rolled her eyes at Ye Xunhuan and said, "Didn't the other party's actions just explain everything!"

"Without sufficient foundation, would they dare to speak to the Guardians this way?"

Ye Xunhuan realized it was true. Without Ao Wuheng having enough confidence, how could he speak to Guangling Zi and the others like that.

"The Summerhou Clan is not simple. How exactly, I don't know." Olivia took a deep breath and said, "But your mother is also not simple, finding you a wife from the Summerhou Clan!"

Had Olivia not mentioned Ye Xunhuan's mother, Qin Fenghuang, Ye Xunhuan would have overlooked this point.

Indeed, the Summerhou Clan is formidable, yet his mother could arrange an engagement between him and Qiu Ruoxi, binding the two together. If she were an ordinary person, how could she manage that?

Yet, in Ye Xunhuan's impression, Qin Fenghuang hadn't exhibited any unusual behavior?

Of course, it was also possible Ye Xunhuan knew little about Qin Fenghuang after being away for so many years.

But even if Qin Fenghuang was remarkable, how did she connect with the Summerhou Clan?

Could it be that his father-in-law once pursued his mother?

Everything was a mystery to Ye Xunhuan; he couldn't figure out any answers, and there was no one to give him an answer now.

"If your mother were still alive, I would really like to have a good chat with her." Olivia said with some emotion, "To see what kind of extraordinary woman your mother was!"

"Unfortunately, she's no longer here," Ye Xunhuan said sadly.

"Yes, she's gone." Olivia sighed gently and said, "I didn't know back then that I could meet you, or that the number one talented woman of Huaxia was your mother, otherwise, I would've come to Huaxia to witness her elegance!"

Olivia had also heard Qin Fenghuang's name abroad but hadn't given it much thought.

When Olivia knew of Qin Fenghuang, it was only from the business world.

Back then, in Olivia's mind, Qin Fenghuang was just a relatively successful businesswoman, not worth her attention.

But now it seemed, Olivia was wrong. Qin Fenghuang wasn't just a businesswoman; she must have harbored some unknown secret.

But what that secret was is unknown, taken underground with Qin Fenghuang.

Ye Xunhuan smiled wryly, saying nothing.

If he had known his mother would pass away so early, he would have set aside his grudge for a couple of years to accompany Qin Fenghuang, letting her leave peacefully.

But this world has no "ifs," only results and consequences.

Olivia gradually realized that after mentioning Qin Fenghuang, the atmosphere had become gloomy, so she changed the subject, "By the way, when are you going to the Summerhou Clan?"

"I don't know!" Ye Xunhuan shook his head lightly and said, "Ruoxi said to wait until she finishes this period of work."

"That should be soon!" Olivia said softly.

"Do you know what she's busy with?"

"I know a bit," Olivia said with a smile, "Didn't you ask me to find some directors and stars last time?"

"A movie?"

"Yes!" Olivia nodded and said, "It's about to be released, so they're promoting it now!"

"So fast..."

"It's already considered slow!" Olivia said proudly, "In America, it would be done in two to three months, including promotion. How could it drag on till now!"

"In your country, everything is slow, and there's also review, always dragging on!"

Ye Xunhuan's mouth twitched slightly. Although he didn't want to admit Olivia's assessment of his country, he had to acknowledge that she was right.

"When you go to the Summerhou Clan, I'll return to Europe."

"You're not staying in Huaxia?"

"Staying here alone is pointless," Olivia said lightly, "No one to play with me, and I'm injured and need proper rest back home!"

"By the way, is your injury okay?"

"It's fine." Olivia lowered her voice quite a bit, "Can you speak to that elder about asking your Guardians to look after me so they won't ambush me halfway..."

"That's impossible, right?"

"Why is it impossible!" Olivia hummed, "They suffered a big loss this time. You have the Summerhou Clan backing you, and since you killed someone unimportant, without evidence, they can't do anything to you. But I'm different; I'm a vampire, a European, and also an underground world overlord. This time, they also suffered in my hands, do you think they'll let me off easily?"

Ye Xunhuan thought so too.

After all, it's never good to be harmful, and it's always good to be cautious.

Then Ye Xunhuan said straightforwardly, "Don't worry, I'll talk to Ruoxi later and have her deal with it. It's definitely better than me doing it!"

Olivia smiled. If Qiu Ruoxi were to handle it, it would almost be certain, given the Huaxia tradition of respecting face, not to mention Qiu Ruoxi is the eldest daughter of the Summerhou Clan!

Meanwhile, at the Xiangzhang Residence!

After Dongfang Shu found Wu Lanqin alive, she took her back to her villa, got a doctor to treat Wu Lanqin's wounds, and awakened her.

However, even if Wu Lanqin was awake, she couldn't stir up any waves.

Because Wu Lanqin was locked in an iron cage by Dongfang Shu, with her limbs bound by iron chains!

When Wu Lanqin slowly woke up and saw her condition, her face changed dramatically.

"Awake?"

Dongfang Shu's voice slowly echoed in Wu Lanqin's ears.

The next moment, Wu Lanqin suddenly raised her head to look at Dongfang Shu.

Seeing the hatred in Dongfang Shu's eyes staring back at her, Wu Lanqin's face changed dramatically, with a sinking feeling in her heart!
