Hello Mr. King Chapter 71 - Ghost Orchid

Chapter 71: Ghost Orchid

Yun Xiangxiang, whose heart was already numb from surprise, stared at the flower pot. She suddenly thought that her life was a bit ironic.
Who would expect her, who had a twenty million yuan worth of debt, would keep a flower pot that was worth tens of millions of yuan.
The important thing was that this flower pot couldn’t be sold. It had to be kept in the house to be taken care of delicately,
Sigh, what a world. Even flowers are worth more than humans.
Yun Xiangxiang’s phone suddenly rang. Li Xiangling and Song Meng called. Both of them agreed to meet up with her after they registered at Beijing University. They wanted to accompany her on a tour of Qingdao University.
She originally wanted to invite both of them to stay at her place. However, Song Qian and Ai Li were now there. On top of that, He Wei said that it would be best if not a lot of people could come and go as they please. It could attract unnecessary trouble.
Also, their campus was quite far away. It would be more convenient if they stayed on campus.
“Oh, Xiangxiang. We went through a lot of subways before finally finding your big house. But the guard didn’t let us in,” Song Meng felt wronged.
Yun Xiangxiang stepped into the entrance. There was a phone there that connected directly to the guardhouse. She phoned the guard to confirm their identities before opening the door to wait for them.
“Wow!” Song Meng screamed as she came into the house, “Oh, Xiangxiang. It’s a big house. It’s so pretty!”
Even Li Xiangling, who was always calm, couldn’t help but sigh in awe. Sparks flew in her eyes, “This house isn’t cheap, right, Xiangxiang?”
“The house costs twenty million yuan, refurbishments included. I’m owing Brother Wei and didn’t even pay a cent to him yet,” Yun Xiangxiang slumped on the sofa when she talked about this. She didn’t even want to move a muscle.
Both of them suddenly froze. However, it didn’t take away their admiration. They went around both stories once. Song Meng’s face was full of envy especially when she got Yun Xiangxiang’s permission to visit her huge master bedroom, “Why didn’t my mother give me peerless beauty when I was born?”
“You also have a chance even if you’re not a peerless beauty. Look at Brother Wei, he’s a lot richer than I am,’ Yun Xiangxiang said to Song Meng.
“Alright. I’ll also work hard to be an agent. By that time, I’ll also sign with Huan Yu Century Entertainment. Please become a god faster, Xiangxiang. Then I’ll be able to grow healthily under your wing.” Song Meng squatted and gestured a Y with her hands. She stood up slowly, matching the pace of her conversation.
“Let me introduce some people to you two. They’re the beauties that will be responsible for my personal safety from now on. This is the aloof Ai Li. You can speak in Mandarin with her. This one shares the same surname as Song Meng. She’s Song Qian.”
Yun Xiangxiang only introduced them when they had their fill of excitement, “Qianqian, Ai Li. They’re my best friends who grew up with me, Song Meng and Li Xiangling.”
“Female bodyguards. It’s so cool.” Song Meng didn’t have a big reaction when she looked at Song Qian. However, her eyes lit up when she saw Ai Li due to the influence of European and American movies.
Song Qian didn’t mind it a bit, “Oh, your surname is Song. Let’s add each other on WeChat. Find this big sister if you run into any trouble from now on.”
“Really?” Song Meng immediately ran over sappily and called warmly, “Sister!”
Song Meng didn’t know how powerful a carry she just gained. However, Song Meng got along with her easily because she respected Yun Xiangxiang. Or else she wouldn’t even care about it. There were countless people who had Song as their surname in the world.
“Both of you will stay here and sleep with me tonight. My room and bed are big. There are new clothes in the closet too. I’ll have to shoot some promotional photos tomorrow. I’ll report to school the day after,” Yun Xiangxiang told Song Meng and others.
“We have prepared all the necessities and change of clothes.” Both of them were carrying a bag. They promised to play for two days at Yun Xiangxiang’s place.
“I’ll go with you, Xiangxiang.” Song Meng raised her hand immediately. Since she was going into the entertainment industry in the future, there was no reason not to take such a good chance to learn from Yun Xiangxiang.
Yun Xiangxiang gazed at Li Xiangling. She saw Li Xiangling tilting her head and stared at her pot of orchid, “Will you come along tomorrow, Xiangling?”
Li Xiangling nodded carelessly. She didn’t have any requests to the places they would go, “Xiangxiang, who gave you this pot of flowers?”
Li Xiangling didn’t think that Yun Xiangxiang bought it because she knew Xiangxiang too well. Xiangxiang wasn’t someone who liked plants.
“An elder.” Yun Xiangxiang gave a general reply.
“Xiangxiang, this flower is expensive.” Li Xiangling said to Yun Xiangxiang seriously.
Her grandfather was a flower addict. He liked to tend to flowers and plants the most. Especially orchids. He even got rich due to orchids in earlier years.
Their family was supposed to be wealthy if it wasn’t for those messed up relatives. They caused her grandfather to fall into a trap and lost all his money. She liked to listen to her grandfather’s grumbles when she had nothing to do.
Yun Xiangxiang’s pot of orchid was a top grade, famous ghost orchid. It was even better than the one her grandfather saw in Yunnan.
That pot of ghost orchid was valued at forty to fifty million yuan. This one’s value was sure to be higher.
What kind of people would give Yun Xiangxiang such an extravagant item? Did they have any ulterior motives?
Yun Xiangxiang explained with a smile when she saw the concern in Li Xiangling’s eyes, “I know the value of this pot. Don’t worry.”
Li Xiangling only relaxed upon this. She then whipped out her phone, “Can I snap a picture and send it to my grandpa?”
“Sure, but don’t let your grandfather tell anyone that this pot is at my place.” Yun Xiangxiang didn’t want anyone to set their eyes on her.
“Doesn’t matter even if she tells it.” Song Qian didn’t care.
She shouldn’t even stay in the industry if someone could steal something from Yun Xiangxiang’s house.
There were people better than her. However, those kind of people wouldn’t have their eyes on a pot of orchid. The ones who would do so were nothing but small fry.
Besides, anyone who dared to have any dastardly thoughts about the things the master gave out must have gotten tired of living. They would be seeking death.
“Don’t worry, I won’t tell my grandpa that the flower is with you.” Li Xiangling took the picture at the best angle.
She only wanted her grandfather to be happy. Inviting trouble for Yun Xiangxiang wasn’t what she wanted.
Wang Yong and Coco still came over to her house to prepare dinner in the evening. Song Qian went to pick Yun Lin up herself. Song Meng, who luxuriated in this, sighed about the extravagance. She had a goal in her life from now on. That was to be like Yun Xiangxiang and live the high life on the condition that she didn’t have debt.
It was fortunate that He Wei seemed to not worry about Yun Xiangxiang anymore. He didn’t come tonight. Xue Yu didn’t come since He Wei didn’t. He was embarrassed about being the only man. It would spell trouble if he influenced Yun Xiangxiang in a bad way. If not, Yun Xiangxiang didn’t dare to imagine how excited and crazy Song Meng would be.
In the end, Song Meng managed to keep her place as president of Yun Xiangxiang’s Fan Club. Since Yun Xiangxiang wasn’t going to rely on fans for the path she was taking, then the guidance for fans could be loosened. Aside from that, Yun Xiangxiang had already established the rules for her fans.
On top of that, Song Meng was Yun Xiangxiang’s bosom friend. It would bring great benefit to Yun Xiangxiang if she were to handle it.
Yun Xiangxiang had already started to train in martial arts from Song Qian. Song Qian used different teaching methods and different teaching content for Yun Xiangxiang and Yun Lin. She required Yun Lin to have rigidity and strength, while she had Yun Xiangxiang train her ligaments every day. She required Yun Xiangxiang to be flexible and fluid.
Her military training was also going to start. Yun Xiangxiang didn’t dare to slack off. She worked her best to have a good physique.
