With these thoughts, Fang Hongyu continued, "Niannian, you remember to hold onto Brother Baicheng tightly. He’s a rare good man, and you’ll be happy with him."
Seeing Fang Hongyu say this, Zheng Niannian couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, "Really?"
"Of course it’s true," Fang Hongyu nodded, "Why would I lie to you about something like this? Besides, Brother Baicheng and I grew up as close as two peas in a pod, nobody knows him better than I do."
Zheng Niannian felt that what Fang Hongyu said made a lot of sense.
Putting everything else aside, the two of them did grow up together, after all.
"Thank you, Sister Hongyu. I was actually quite insecure, but after your advice, I feel much more confident," Zheng Niannian said.
"You’re welcome, Niannian. As your good sister, I too hope for your happiness," Fang Hongyu said and seemed to remember something, then added, "Oh right, Niannian, I came to ask for your help with something."
"What do you need? Just tell me, as long as I can help, I definitely won’t hesitate," Zheng Niannian said.
Fang Hongyu continued, "Niannian, have you ever heard of an herb called Bayezhen when you’re acquiring medicinal materials?"
"Bayezhen?"
"Yes," Fang Hongyu nodded.
Zheng Niannian shook her head, "I don’t think I’ve heard of it."
Not heard of it?
Fang Hongyu frowned subtly. Zheng Niannian had been in the herbal medicine business for a long time and was a well-known figure in Capital City.
But now, even Zheng Niannian didn’t know about Bayezhen.
For a moment, Fang Hongyu felt a bit disoriented.
Just then, Zheng Niannian continued, "What are the benefits of Bayezhen? What does it look like? I can keep an eye out for you."
Fang Hongyu explained, "Bayezhen is an indispensable medicine for treating depression. I am asking on behalf of a doctor friend."
Bayezhen contains hallucinogenic components.
But its main purpose remains the treatment of depression.
Also because of its hallucinogenic components, Bayezhen is banned from private buying and selling.
Zheng Niannian nodded, "Okay, Sister Hongyu, I’ll remember that and will definitely keep an eye out for you."
"That would be great, thanks, Niannian," Fang Hongyu patted Zheng Niannian’s hand.
Zheng Niannian smiled, "No trouble at all."

The next day.
Old Lady Mu and Mu Xiaoxiao took a plane together to Qing City.
Looking at the changes in Qing City, Old Lady Mu was filled with incredulity.
If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she could never have imagined such drastic changes in Qing City.
After all, thirty years ago, it was just a small, backward, and dilapidated city.
But now, not only is it bustling, but the city center is even developing better than Capital City.
"Xiaoxiao, is this really Qing City?" Old Lady Mu turned to Mu Xiaoxiao beside her.
Mu Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "It is Qing City, you’re not mistaken."
Old Lady Mu opened her mouth, unsure of what to say.
Mu Xiaoxiao then explained, "Actually, Qing City was just an ordinary second-tier city until a year ago. Because Beauty Chant’s headquarters is located here, Qing City has now become a hot first-tier city. The subway lines 5, 6, and 7 amongst others are just starting trial operations."
It wasn’t just the subway - several high-speed railway stations had also been added to Qing City’s counties and townships.
After all, Beauty Chant had expanded to the rural outskirts.
Although Old Lady Mu knew Beauty Chant was powerful, she had not expected it could drive local economic development. Shock was written all over her face, "Is Beauty Chant really that powerful?"
"Yes," Mu Xiaoxiao nodded, "Beauty Chant now dominates the market in Qing City."
Not just in Qing City.
According to international financial news reports, Beauty Chant’s popularity overseas also remains sky-high, with a demand that far exceeds supply.
Beauty Chant currently has 20 stores in Country P. Although its prices are 20 percent higher than in the domestic market, it is still highly sought after.
Beauty Chant has also become the nemesis of the skincare industry.
Wherever Beauty Chant is, within a hundred meters, you might find snack bars, hotels, and restaurants, but not a single skincare store.
Thus, a saying circulates in the skincare industry.
Wherever Beauty Chant has been, nothing else can grow.
Especially among Beauty Chant’s loyal customers.
Once they have used Beauty Chant, they no longer have eyes for any other skincare brand.
Hearing this, Old Lady Mu’s eyes widened before she sighed, "It’s a pity. This Lin Guixiang isn’t that Lin Guixiang."
If that were the case, she wouldn’t have had to make this trip.
And she wouldn’t need to be wary of her son being deceived.
Mu Xiaoxiao also felt it was a pity.
How wonderful would it be if Lin Guixiang was really the founder of Beauty Chant?
Suddenly, Old Lady Mu turned to Mu Xiaoxiao and asked, "By the way, have you found out where that woman lives?"
