Flustered, Chen Xiaowan hastily waved her hand and said, “No no no. Don’t joke with your Big Sis, Brother! I know perfectly well what I’m capable of, and I’m afraid I’ll make the company go out of business in no time if I were to be made its CEO.”
Tang Xiu pondered for a moment before giving a simple reply, “Since you don’t want to become the CEO of the Brisk Trading Group, how about becoming the Vice CEO? Isn’t the husband of your classmate bully the Vice CEO of this company? For you to replace him in that position should be okay, right?”
“B-But Brother, this… is this the right thing to do?” Chen Xiaowan hesitated.
“The right thing? Then, how about I tell Kuwako to give you the whole Brisk Trading Group so you can do with it as you like?” Asked Tang Xiu back.
“No no no, don’t!” Chen Xiaowan hurriedly said. “Vice CEO, then. Vice CEO it is! I’ll make sure to work hard later.”
“Hahaha!” Tang Xiu couldn’t help but burst into laughter. “Don’t tell me you haven’t understood it yet, Sis Xiaowan? No one will dare to purposely create trouble for you no matter how halfheartedly you work in the future. You can be said to have a big tree to cling onto in the Brisk Trading Group. Also, call Kuwako directly if anyone dares to bully and push you around, and she’ll take care of them for you.”
“Big Sis Chen, you can do whatever you want with the Brisk Trading Group,” said Kuwako quickly.
With eyes glancing back and forth between Kuwako and Tang Xiu, Chen Xiaowan suddenly felt that the world was rotating way too fast. She was so chagrined and confused about her future when she lost her job, but the plot of the drama suddenly changed 360 degrees just after frenziedly strolling and playing for a day! [1]
Lots of words could be said to describe it, but all were still the same that, at this time, she really admired Tang Xiu, since the younger brother she had not seen for so many years was now powerful and also became her protector. [2]
Half an hour later, Tang Xiu sent Chen Xiaowan back to her residence and watched her walk into her apartment before starting the car and leaving. After some contemplation, he couldn’t bear it any longer and decided to leave for Jingmen Island overnight.
In the next morning, after spending the night driving the Agera R sports car to the Everlasting Feast Hall, Ji Chimei, who had been notified in advance, was already waiting for him in the parking lot.
“Lord!”
At this time, Ji Chimei was not yet aware that Tang Xiu had obtained the Chrono Crystal. But she could tell that something very important happened given the fact that he rushed here overnight.
“Give me back the Demonic Revival Grass.”
Ji Chimei stared blankly for a moment before immediately taking it out from her interspatial ring and respectfully handing it over to Tang Xiu. Immediately after, the two people came before the entrance to the exquisite pagoda on the seabed, as Tang Xiu then spoke, “Guard this spot and allow no one to step into the exquisite pagoda. There is no exception, including Xiaoxue and the Light and Dark siblings.”
“Understood!” Ji Chimei was bewildered, but she still answered respectfully.
On the seventh floor of the exquisite pagoda, Tang Xiu ignored the chilling air inside despite wearing thin clothes. He took a look at the Gu Yan’er lying on the bed of ice, as the Demonic Revival Grass in his hand instantly flew midair. He exerted his Star Force to press it and finally condensed it into a drop of concentrated verdant green liquid essence.
Tang Xiu then sent the drop of concentrated essence into Gu Yan’er’s mouth and carefully placed the pebble-sized Chrono Crystal on the center of her eyebrows.
The instant after, a burst of unique violent energy broke out from Gu Yan’er’s lying body. It was so powerful that it would have squeezed Tang Xiu’s internal organs into a meat pulp if it wasn’t for his powerful strength. In the meantime, a crevice visible to the naked eye emerged out of thin air two meters around Gu Yan’er, as a strand of pure energy thread sprung out of nowhere from the space and fused into her body.
Time passed by, as then lights began to gradually form a drape of light that shrouded Gu Yan’er’s body. As time went by, the thickness of the light curtain increased and from the back, it looked like a cocoon made of lights that enveloped Gu Yan’er’s body.

Shanghai.
At the HQ of the Brisk Trading Group, Taro Ono, the Chief Executive Officer of the company branch in China, had received a prior notice early in the morning that the female Big Boss would visit the company today; he was very excited to receive this sudden news.
He was only talented in economic business with a very low status, but was groomed by the House of Yamamoto a few years ago. Later on, after Kuwako chose him and sent him to attend training for two years, he was arranged to leave for China and was made the CEO of the Brisk Trading Group, where his status had suddenly grown by leaps and bounds all of a sudden. Therefore, he felt really grateful to her, even reminding himself many times to become her most loyal subordinate from then on.
After he came to China, the diligence he put into his work resulted in the expansion of the Brisk Trading Group. At the same time, he also learned that the status of his Big Boss in the Yamamoto House was in the constant rise. She had an equal chance with the others in the contention to become the family patriarch.
This news was like injecting him with a dose of stimulant! And he wished that he could show how good the Brisk Trading Group was and how it had developed and accumulated more capital for his Boss, Kuwako Yamamoto. As it would help her to have more capital to compete for becoming the Head of the Yamamoto House.
