Young Master in Flower City

Qingcheng International.

Even though today is the weekend, the storm Qingcheng International is facing still doesn't allow Ye Qingcheng to rest. It's safe to say that these two days, Ye Qingcheng has been deeply anxious for Qingcheng International. After all, she just took over Qingcheng International two or three years ago, and if it were to fall under her leadership, she would be remembered as a sinner throughout the ages.

Qingcheng International CEO's Office.

The desk of Ye Qingcheng is piled high with documents, and she looks much more haggard; an imperceptible touch of age lingers on her icy, stunning face. Evidently, she hasn't had peaceful days these past two days.

Given that if Qingcheng International can't survive this crisis, it will go bankrupt, not to mention that over the past two days, Qingcheng International's stocks have been steadily declining and have already dropped by 20 percent.

If things continue this way, Qingcheng International is sure to follow the footsteps of Zhenhua and Gao Group, facing the possibility of being blocked by banks. As long as Ye Qingcheng is alive, she won't allow this to happen.

At this moment, Ye Qingcheng holds a document in her hand, flipping through it back and forth. On the document is the seal of Celestial Capital Land Bureau, obviously indicating that Celestial Capital Land Bureau is auctioning off a piece of land. If Qingcheng International can acquire this land, perhaps it can weather the storm it's facing.

However, acquiring this land is easier said than done. All major enterprises in Celestial Capital have their eyes on this land. Even Tianyu International is no exception. Who can match Tianyu International in the financial world?

Besides Tianyu, there's Qingcheng International's biggest rival, Fengxing International.

Moreover, Fengxing International is currently in its prime, its foundation and financial resources are undoubtedly strong.

More importantly, Qingcheng International is now facing a storm, and loans are a rather thorny issue for Ye Qingcheng. How much the banks can lend her, she's uncertain about.

Of course, in the past it was a different story, just a casual call from Ye Qingcheng to the bank could solve the problem, but now that's no longer the case.

Ring ring~

At this moment, the phone on the desk rang. Ye Qingcheng put down the documents in her hand, picked up the phone, and her beautiful eyes glanced slightly upward at the screen. Seeing it's a caller she doesn't recognize, she would have been perplexed in the past, but now that Qingcheng International is in turmoil, there might be important business.

So, Ye Qingcheng pressed the answer button: "Hello~ Who is this?"

"Wife, it's me!" a teasing voice came from the other end of the line, making Ye Qingcheng suddenly freeze. Wife? What wife? Ye Qingcheng is still single, where did this husband come from?

Soon, a faint coldness enveloped Ye Qingcheng: "Who are you? Please speak with respect. First, I'm not married; second, I have no husband. Who are you, really?"

"Wife, have you forgotten me so quickly!" The voice on the other end seemed to be feigning mystery.

"Who are you? Please be clear. You are slandering me; I could sue you!" Ye Qingcheng was already in a foul mood these days, and now there's an anonymous call, immediately calling her 'wife.' It's strange that she isn't in a bad mood.

"Don't be like that, wife!" The other person said with a slightly sleazy tone, "Wife, we're about to get married soon. When you say such things, it really breaks my heart!"

"Who are you?" Ye Qingcheng's voice was icy. The voice on the phone disgusted her.

"I'm Guan Zhongyuan. You've even forgotten me? As soon as I found your number, I called you up to get in touch!" The voice on the other end grew even more sleazy, and his phone's wallpaper was filled with photos of Ye Qingcheng.

Guan Zhongyuan had put the call on speaker mode, his sleazy gaze glued to the phone cover. Beautiful... absolutely beautiful, look at that chest, it's a whopping 34D chest. No, it must be 36D. Marrying such a woman is indeed a blessing for generations of little Guan.

Guan Zhongyuan? Ye Qingcheng was a bit confused, why don't you call yourself Guan Universe?

No, this... this name sounds familiar, Ye Qingcheng suddenly realized. Wasn't the person my dad mentioned having an arranged marriage with me called Guan Zhongyuan?

With this in mind, the icy coldness on Ye Qingcheng's body intensified, causing the office temperature to drop slightly. Marrying such a sleazy person is impossible.

If given a choice, she'd prefer the man she encountered at Royal One a few days ago. At least he was pleasant to look at.

So, Ye Qingcheng said coldly: "How did you get my number?"

"It was given to me by your father. I just wanted to tell you that I'm coming back to the country early. By next week, I should be able to reunite with you. Isn't that exciting?"

Exciting your butt, Ye Qingcheng cursed inwardly and opened her mouth: "Please watch your word choice. I'm not your wife, and I have no relation to you whatsoever. Better not call me again. Whether you return or not is none of my business!"

"Don't be like that, wife, we indeed have an arranged marriage!" Guan Zhongyuan said.

"Arranged marriage?" Hah~ What marriage? For Ye Qingcheng to marry a man she has never seen, it is impossible. Moreover, she knows nothing about the counterpart, and just based on Guan Zhongyuan's sleazy voice, Ye Qingcheng can discern that he is not a good person.

With that, Ye Qingcheng snorted coldly: "Whoever arranged the marriage with you can marry you, just don't bother me!"

Bang~

With that said, Ye Qingcheng suddenly threw her phone to the ground, instantly smashing it. Already in a bad mood, Ye Qingcheng heard such a sleazy call, making it utterly miserable. What kind of person is this, truly.

"CEO, what's wrong?" Secretary Xiao Lan heard the sound of something shattering in the office and suddenly rushed in. Ye Qingcheng replied coldly: "It's nothing!"

"Oh!" Xiao Lan looked at the broken phone on the ground, though puzzled, she didn't dare ask more. So turning around, she was about to leave but saw Ye Qingcheng speak: "Xiao Lan, wait!"

"CEO, any orders?" Xiao Lan asked.

"Go and buy a phone for me!" Ye Qingcheng said.

"Yes, CEO!"

"Wait~ also get a new number for me!"

"CEO wants to change her number?" Xiao Lan was a bit puzzled. The phone number of the Qingcheng International Chief Executive Officer, one can imagine how important that is. Without major issues, she would absolutely not change the number frivolously. Could it be the CEO...

"Why are you still dawdling there? Go when I tell you to go. Oh… before you go, have the Information Department Manager meet me!" Ye Qingcheng said.

"It's the weekend!"

"Then give her a call, tell her I'm waiting at the office!"

"Understood!" Xiao Lan nodded, respectfully retreating, while Ye Qingcheng continued working.

Very quickly, she took the document into her hands again. Qingcheng International must secure the Great Ao land, no matter the cost for Ye Qingcheng.

Great Ao is an island located east of Celestial Capital, surrounded by the sea, making it the best scenic spot. If developed into a maritime leisure resort, it will surely become a golden investment that continuously brings in profit.

Moreover, the coastline around Great Ao, stretching beyond sight, is all empty land. If all secured, once the maritime leisure resort is completed, then constructing luxurious villa complexes around it, won't the real estate prices soar?
