This woman really was stunning!
Her mesmerizing good looks were flawless! A goddess she was!
The black blazer and skirt she wore tightly clung around her bodacious curves like gloves. The nation’s top-model would kill to have her body!
This woman was none other than the CEO of Bei Cheng Cosmetics Private Limited Company, Green Vine’s most beautiful woman, the eldest daughter of the Lan Family… Lan Mengcheng!
Previously, Chen Xiaobei crushed the Yap family using 930,000,000 from Focker to put the Yap Organization under Lan Zhengguo’s management. After Lan Zhengguo settled everything in Green Vine City, he brought his whole family to Dragon City to take over every single business that belonged to Yap Organization.
But Lan Mengcheng had no interest in the Yap family’s business at all. When they arrived in Green Dragon city, she had completely devoted herself entirely to Bei Cheng Cosmetics.
Their very first line of products were entirely her doing. She oversaw the entire process, from start to finish.
Xu Gong was the esteemed and internationally respected Cosmetics Chemical Research Engineer Lan Mengcheng had snitched on by offering to pay him an attractive salary. Hearing him proclaiming that the fruits of her labor were the best in the world brought a smile to her face.
Lan Mengcheng wanted to hear a more objective opinion of Xu Gong.
I’m not being dishonest! I’m telling the truth!” Xu Gong looked at the bottles in her hands. “Our products are formulated with natural Chinese herbs! This is something that not a single cosmetic company in the world can do! On top of that, our products have been tested through hundreds of clinical trials on hundreds of participants of different age groups, skin types, and geography! The reviews we have received were 100% positive! Its effectiveness was remarkable!
“That means that our products are suitable for people all over the world! This is something completely unprecedented in the world of cosmetics! No one would be able to surpass that!” Xu Gong looked very pleased.
“Mm! I actually thought so too!”, smiled Lan Mengcheng, brimming with confidence. “Bei Cheng really is the first of its kind in the world!”
“President Lan, I’ve been dying to ask, how did you come about the formula for these two cosmetics? They are the sole reason for our success!”
Lan Mengcheng smiled fondly as she replied, “My boyfriend gave them to me!”
“Your boyfriend? Isn’t he only a few years older than you?”
Xu Gong found it hard to digest that a 20-year-old could come up with such top-notched formulae.
“We’re actually the same age! But he’s a really good Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner! I’ll introduce him to you when I have the chance!”
“How… How is that possible…”
How was it possible that the world’s finest teams of cosmetic experts combined were no match for a green-horned young’un?
“It’s true.” Lan Mengcheng assured him. “My boyfriend bought the company shares with his formula. Technically speaking, he’s the Chairman of our company! My boss!”
“What…”
Xu Gong was completely taken aback by the information that he had just acquired.
“What are you guys talking about? You look really happy!”
A young man wearing a Tang suit barged in with two other men tailing him.
The smile on Lan Mengcheng’s face vanished.
Xu Gong’s brows furrowed as he said in a hushed voice, “Such a bummer to see him here… President Lan, I’ll be on my way…”
“Mm…” Lan Mengcheng nodded.
The young man in the Tang suit, however, shouted, “Stay, Xu Gong! You didn’t even greet me. Isn’t that just rude of you?”
“Master… Xiaoqiang… How are you…”
Xu Gong forced a smile.
“Now, that’s more like it!” The young man chuckled. “I Fang Xiaoqiang really hate it when people are rude!”
“Er… Yes…”, nodded Xu Gong fearfully.
“Mengcheng! Are you busy today? Want to go watch a movie with me?” Fang Xiaoqiang asked, a smile plastered on his face. “It was just released! I heard that it was as good as ‘Ling Yue the Heroine’! I promise that you’ll like it!”
“I’m very busy! Please go back!”
Lang Mengcheng’s refusal was firm but polite so as to not offend him.
At the position that the Lan Family were standing today, many people in the business and political world had to give face to them. The only people Lan Mengcheng would not dare to offend were the Jianghu elites.
“This is the eighth time already! You keep saying that you’re always busy! You’re obviously avoiding me! I am Fang Xiaoqiang! The young master of Flying Axe Faction! My father ranks number 38 in China’s God of War Leaderboard! What damage would going out with me do to your reputation?”
“Master Xiaoqiang, you’re a really decent person and your family is too! But I’ve already told you many times before that I already have a boyfriend whom I love very much! Even if I’m not busy, I will never go out with you!” Lan Mengcheng assertively said.
“You have a boyfriend? Then call him here so I can see for myself! I’ve been here eight times already and I’ve never seen him! How am I supposed to believe you?” There was an edginess in Fang Xiaoqiang’s voice. “You don’t have a boyfriend! If you reject me again, you are slapping me and my family in the face!”
“Master Xiaoqian! You’re overthinking things! That was not my intention at all! I really do have a boyfriend!” Lan Mencheng bit her lip.
“I don’t care if it’s true or not! If you don’t come with me today, that means you look down on me! On my family! Don’t say that I didn’t warn you! Anything can happen when you offend us Fangs!”
“Master Qiang! Are you threatening me?” Lan Mengcheng appeared calm on the outside but inside, she was shaking like a leaf.
Fang Xiaoqiang was quite strong himself as the Flying Axe Faction were a force to be reckoned with! They were not people you would want to offend!
“Oh, don’t worry! I won’t touch a strand of hair on you! But other people won’t be as lucky!” Fang Xiaoqiang let out an eerie chuckle. “There are so many people here in this factory. Take Xu Gong for example! His car might roll over, or he might accidentally fall into deep waters, or maybe even fall and crack his head… These are all very possible!”
“Master Qiang! This is not something to joke about! I have my folks and my children to care for. They all depend on me…” A horrified Xu Gong spoke up. “President Lan, I would like to resign now! You’ve been wonderful but I really cannot stay…”
Lan Mengcheng panicked. “”Xu Gong! How could you say that?! You are the Chief Chemical Engineer! If you leave, who’s going to manage production?”
