Ye Qingcheng looked over at the sound and saw Long Haoyu walking towards her with four bodyguards in suits. She couldn't help but frown.

What's he doing here?

She and Long Haoyu are divorced, and there is no conflict between them regarding the custody of their daughter Feifei or their assets.

She really couldn't understand what reason Long Haoyu had to cause trouble.

Apart from Liu Ruyan, who remained calm and showed no reaction, everyone else looked at Long Haoyu with strange expressions.

Given Long Haoyu's status and position in Binhai, they almost all knew him, and they also knew that Long Haoyu was Ye Qingcheng's ex-husband.

Long Haoyu's visit here is probably not for good purposes.

As Long Haoyu approached, Ye Qingcheng asked indifferently, "What are you doing here?"

Under pressure from the Ye family in Beijing, Long Haoyu resolutely chose to divorce her and sever all ties.

Although she agreed to protect her daughter Feifei, she was utterly disappointed in Long Haoyu.

After so many years of marriage, they still ended up abandoning each other when disaster struck.

Long Haoyu smiled and said, "Of course I'm here on behalf of my daughter to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the founding of Fengqing Group!"

Ye Qingcheng's expression darkened as she stared directly at Long Haoyu. "What do you mean?"

Long Haoyu smirked. "Tsk tsk, did your IQ drop after divorcing me?"

"My words are very clear: I am here on behalf of my daughter!"

“Your daughter is your own flesh and blood, so she has a share of your property, doesn’t she?”

“My daughter is still young, so as her guardian, I naturally have the obligation to manage her property.”

Upon hearing Long Haoyu's words, everyone exchanged bewildered glances, none of them having expected him to be so shameless.

Using his daughter's name to try and divide the shares of Fengqing Group, even if he only gets 10%, that's still tens of billions.

But Long Haoyu clearly came prepared, so why would he only ask for 10%?

Ye Qingcheng laughed in fury. "Long Haoyu, I never imagined you could be such a shameless person!"

"Unfortunately, you've miscalculated. Although Fengqing Group is under my name, it's not mine. I'm just managing it on behalf of someone else."

"Heh, even if it were mine, a shameless scoundrel like you wouldn't get a single penny from me!"

Long Haoyu smiled enigmatically. "Ye Qingcheng, I advise you to obediently transfer fifty percent of Fengqing Group's shares to me, or you won't be able to bear the consequences!"

Ye Qingcheng glanced at Long Haoyu and said indifferently, "Get lost!"

Long Haoyu sneered, "Now that I'm here, I'm not going to leave so easily!"

"You'd better think this through before giving me an answer!"

Ye Qingcheng frowned slightly, her gaze fixed on Long Haoyu's face.

She suddenly suspected that Long Haoyu had someone backing him up, otherwise, the Donghao Group behind Long Haoyu would be far from having the strength to challenge the Fengqing Group.

"Chairman Long, aren't you going a bit too far?"

At this moment, Cao Yuanliang, the governor of Binhai, spoke up: "You and President Ye are already divorced, and the property and custody of your daughter Feifei have been clearly divided!"

"Feifei is indeed eligible to inherit Mr. Ye's property, but Mr. Ye is still alive. According to the law, Feifei does not have the right to divide the property, only the right to enjoy it!"

"But only before the age of eighteen!"

"Besides, President Ye will remarry and have children in the future, and Feifei is not the only heir!"

Long Haoyu glanced at Cao Yuanliang. "Oh, it's the Prefect!"

"Are you trying to uphold justice?"

"Why don't you arrest me and put me on trial?"

This was a blatant provocation, showing that Cao Yuanliang was not taken seriously at all.

Everyone looked on in astonishment.

"Has Long Haoyu gone mad today? How dare he speak to the Prefect like that!"

"Tsk tsk, how brave! Since ancient times, the common people have never fought against the officials; he's practically courting death!"

"No, Long Haoyu isn't stupid. How could he dare to provoke the Prefect if he didn't have the confidence?"

"Don't you find it strange that Long Haoyu's Donghao Group is nothing compared to Fengqing Group? Where does he get the confidence to come and cause trouble?"

"I suspect he must have someone backing him, and it's very likely the Ye family from Beijing!"

"Otherwise, with just a word from President Ye, the Long family and Donghao Group will disappear from Binhai forever in a short time."

Cao Yuanliang, who was initially very angry, frowned upon hearing these comments, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty.

At this point, he also suspected that Long Haoyu was backed by the Ye family of Beijing.

If that's the case, then he really wouldn't dare to get involved in this matter.

The Ye family is the head of the four major families in the capital. They have an extremely deep foundation and extensive connections, and are not people that a mere prefect like him can easily offend.

Even Cao Yuanliang dared not speak again, let alone the others.

Ye Qingcheng's face turned extremely ugly. She knew that the Ye family in Beijing would take action against Fengqing Group sooner or later, but she did not expect it to happen so quickly.

Moreover, they were using Long Haoyu, and doing so in such a high-profile and undisguised manner.

Liu Ruyan hesitated for a moment, then looked at Long Haoyu and said, "Long Haoyu, Fengqing Group doesn't belong to Ye Qingcheng, it belongs to my fiancé..."

"What are you?"

Long Haoyu looked at Liu Ruyan with disdain. "My actions are none of the business of some Tom, Dick, or Harry!"

Liu Ruyan's face darkened. "So, Long Haoyu, you think I, Liu Ruyan, am some nobody?"

"Who gave you this confidence?"

"The Ye family of Beijing?"

"You...what did you say?" Long Haoyu's expression changed drastically, his gaze fixed on Liu Ruyan with suspicion and uncertainty. "You...how could you possibly be Liu Ruyan?"

He knew about the feud between Liu Ruyan and Ye Qingcheng, so he couldn't believe that Liu Ruyan would actually appear here.

Everyone's expression changed drastically, and all eyes turned to Liu Ruyan.

Although they had never met Liu Ruyan, they were familiar with her name.

She is the eldest daughter of the Liu family in the capital, and also the sole heir.

"Long Haoyu, as long as you disappear from my sight right now, I can pretend nothing happened!"

Liu Ruyan remained indifferent. "If you want to challenge me, I'll be happy to oblige."

Long Haoyu's face was extremely ugly. Although the Liu family was somewhat inferior to the Ye family, dealing with him was just a matter of a word.

Just as Long Haoyu was caught in a dilemma, a cold laugh suddenly rang out.

"Liu Ruyan, if I remember correctly, your family has been kicked out of the Liu family, hasn't it?"

"Are you still the eldest daughter of the Liu family? What gives you the audacity to speak to Chairman Long like that?"

"You think you can rely on your mouth?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked over and saw a sinister-looking young man and an old man with white hair and a blue robe standing not far away.

Upon seeing the sinister-looking man, Long Haoyu was overjoyed. "Young Master Ye, why have you come in person?"

Young Master Ye, also known as Ye Ziqing, is the son of the head of the Ye family in Beijing and the next heir to the family headship.
