A net of heaven and earth
Yu Jinli's kiss, as gentle as a feather, was like a pebble thrown into a lake, stirring up a tidal wave in Feng Jinxuan's heart, which had been frozen for many years.
He froze completely.
My mind went blank. All my calmness and rationality crumbled and collapsed in the face of that soft touch.
He even forgot how he was supposed to react.
Should I push her away? Or...?
While he was still stuck in place, Yu Jinli had already retreated quickly like a cat that had stolen some cream, with a sly smile on his face.
“Alright, we’re even,” she said. “Now, we can talk about how to deal with that Hong Fu, my partner.”
Looking at her charming and beautiful appearance, Feng Jinxuan felt his heart pounding uncontrollably.
He awkwardly looked away, cleared his throat, and tried to regain his aloof CEO persona.
"Ahem... Come in and speak."
He turned around and strode into his office, his back view carrying a hint of... a hasty retreat.
Assistant Wang was outside, and he saw everything through the surveillance cameras.
He silently adjusted his glasses and quickly jotted down in his mental notebook: After being kissed by Miss Yu, the boss experienced a system crash and a logical loop that lasted for thirty seconds.
Conclusion: The boss's CPU may need an upgrade.
The Cold War ended in an unexpected way.
As a result, their relationship entered a new, unspoken, ambiguous phase.
Although no one said it out loud, a sweet smell always filled the air.
The counterattack plan against Hong Fu and the Shadow Devouring Sect was officially launched the next day.
It was a war without gunfire, a complex conflict comprised of capital and information.
Feng Jinxuan sat in the central command, strategizing and planning.
He issued a series of precise and calm commands, like the most meticulous scalpel, beginning to dissect the enemy's network bit by bit.
He first instructed his assistant, Wang, to secretly sell some of the stocks related to those "rebel" companies under the guise of "optimizing the investment portfolio," creating the illusion that "Feng's Group is facing a tight cash flow and is cutting its losses to survive," thus deceiving his opponents.
Following that, he used his connections to contact the families of the business tycoons who had been "emotionally bewitched," and under the guise of "medical check-ups" and "recuperation," he "invited" them in batches to a private hospital under the Feng family's control with the highest level of security.
Yu Jinli, on the other hand, transformed into a "metaphysical operative working behind enemy lines" and began her performance.
She would send free blessed amulets to the wives of company chairmen under the guise of rewarding loyal customers of the "Koi Comes" app, claiming they could beautify the skin and stabilize the family.
Those amulets were all handmade by her using the golden light of her accumulated merit.
Although it looks... a bit indescribable, like a primary school student's craft project.
But the results are real.
Simply wearing it can subtly purify the negative emotional energy planted by Hong Fu.
She would also disguise herself as a "delivery person," "cleaner," or "physiotherapist" to infiltrate that private hospital and personally perform "qi purification" for those big shots.
Of course, this process is chargeable.
Afterwards, she would anonymously send bills labeled "Special Nursing Fees for Metaphysics" to Assistant Wang for reimbursement.
The two worked together seamlessly, one in the open and the other in the shadows.
A massive net is being quietly tightened around Hong Fu and the forces behind her.
...
One week later, at the Yuncheng International Convention and Exhibition Center.
The strategic cooperation signing ceremony between Feng's Group and Noah's Ark, Europe's largest new energy giant, is being held here.
This signing ceremony attracted much attention.
Because it will directly determine whether Feng Jinxuan's "new energy" scheme, which he proposed at the board meeting, can proceed smoothly.
This also relates to whether Feng's Group can break through recent unfavorable rumors and restore market confidence.
As the president's special assistant, Yu Jinli naturally attended as well.
She was dressed in a smart white suit, carrying a tablet computer, and followed behind Feng Jinxuan, looking professional and reliable.
But in reality, all her attention was focused on the invisible flow of energy in the venue.
She could clearly sense a sinister energy, full of malice, lurking like a venomous snake in a corner of the venue.
Clearly, Hong Fu has also arrived.
Moreover, they are preparing to launch the final offensive on this most important occasion.
Without making a sound, Yu Jinli nudged Feng Jinxuan's arm and gave him a wink.
The man understood and nodded slightly.
The signing ceremony has officially begun.
Feng Jinxuan and the blond, blue-eyed CEO of Noah's Ark from Europe chatted amiably under the media's barrage of cameras.
Everything went very smoothly.
Just as the two were about to pick up their pens and sign their names on the contract.
An unexpected change occurred!
Inside the venue, the business tycoons who had previously been "cured" by Hong Fu's "emotional curse" but had been largely "purified" by Yu Jinli suddenly showed a hint of struggle and pain in their eyes once again.
The veins on their foreheads bulged, and their breathing became rapid, as if they were engaged in a fierce struggle with something.
Yu Jinli's heart tightened.
It's here!
In the crowd, a woman in a long red dress, exuding charm, slowly took out a seemingly ordinary... perfume bottle from her handbag.
She opened the bottle, and a rich, exotic fragrance instantly spread outwards from her.
It's Hong Fu!
She actually wanted to use this method to forcibly activate the "emotional Gu" within those big shots!
That aroma, like an invisible hand, gripped the throats of those business tycoons.
Their reason was instantly swallowed up.
"Wait a moment!"
Mr. Li, who had unilaterally announced the withdrawal of investment earlier, was the first to stand up, his face contorted with rage, and he roared loudly.
"I oppose this marriage! No, I oppose this contract! New energy is a scam! Feng Jinxuan, you liar!"
Immediately afterwards, the other bigwigs, as if infected, stood up one after another and began to loudly criticize Feng Jinxuan and the Feng Group.
The scene instantly descended into chaos.
The reporters' flashbulbs went off like crazy.
Hong Fu stood in the crowd, watching the wonderful show she had orchestrated, a cruel, victorious smile curling at the corner of her lips.
She knew she had won.
After this battle, Feng Jinxuan and the Feng Clan Group will be completely disgraced.
However, she didn't notice.
The other guests present were somewhat taken aback by this sudden turn of events.
But the most important Noah's Ark executives, who could truly influence the outcome of this signing, all remained calm and even... watched the farce with great interest.
Because each of them wore a... merit amulet made by Yu Jinli himself, which looked ugly but had outstanding effects.
Just when Hong Fu thought she had victory in her grasp and was preparing to retire gracefully,
The person in charge of the event suddenly picked up a walkie-talkie and shouted loudly to the backstage area.
"Close the door, unleash the dogs!"
Ah no, it is—
"Plan One, activate!"
The words had barely left his mouth.
In an instant, all exits of the venue were completely sealed off by heavy electronic gates.
A group of burly men in black suits and sunglasses filed out from backstage, completely surrounding the venue.
Leading the group was none other than the ever-meticulous legal queen, Zhang Deshuai.
The smile on Hong Fu's face froze completely.
She then realized that she... seemed to have fallen into a trap.
She is not a hunter.
She was the prey who had already fallen into the trap.
