Chapter 314: Chapter 312: "Sir, mental illness needs to be treated promptly!
The entrepreneurs discussing gossip were initially stunned by Ye Huan’s words, then quickly turned their heads
and burst into laughter.
The whole process was executed smoothly, taking less than a minute.
"Ignore this kid, he’s daydreaming."
"Seriously, how cthere's an idiot everywhere."
"Even the heirs of top families couldn't win over Goddess Ye, and he says he wants to pursue her. Fine, but to
claim that Goddess Ye is chasing him? This kid's bragging is like an old sow wearing a bra, one set after another."
The entrepreneurs turned their heads again and dived back into discussing Ye Qiging, expressions of longing
appearing on their faces.
They all have at least several billions in assets and have been with many women; first and second-tier female
stars are just casual flings.
But today... Ye Qiging’s beauty deeply shocked them, they finally understood that those so-called beauties they
conquered in the past are nothing!
Ye Qiging’s title as the number one beauty in the Capital City is well deserved!
A true goddess!
A goddess that no one can pursue!
"You don’t believe me, fine then!" Ye Huan’s nonchalant voice elicited immediate irritation from the crowd of
entrepreneurs.
This kid must be having a mental breakdown, incessantly fantasizing about Goddess Ye chasing him, how
ridiculous!
No way, people having a mental breakdown are generally aggressive; if he suddenly lashes out and attacks
someone...
An entrepreneur quietly got up and walked toward the door, whispering something to the special duty soldiers
standing guard outside...
"Alright then, President Walker, we'll jointly develop the space-to-ground ballistic missile project."
"However, the development results must be under Huaxia’s control. As for profits, we're willing to concede an
additional ten percent."
The condition raised by Ye Qiging was extremely harsh.

Walker, however, gladly accepted and signed his non the business contract handed over by Wuling Fei.
The other four heirs of the Finske Conglomerate all showed expressions of jealousy.
Being able to establish relations with Li Corporation, Walker was another step closer to becoming the true
"Crown Prince" of the Finske Conglomerate!
"Next... is the port construction project. Is anyone interested in discussing it with me?"
As soon as Ye Qiqing asked, both Liu Tianyun and Zhong Qiangian raised their hands in unison, saying, "l am."
Liu Tianyun’s face changed instantly, she didn’t expect Zhong Qiangian to be interested in the sproject as
her.
"Oh, Liu Tianyun, do you really want to compete withfor the bid?" Zhong Qiangian crossed her arms,
displaying an utmost look of disdain, "Overestimating yourself, like a mantis trying to stop a chariot!"
Liu Tianyun’s expression turned extremely poor, and she replied coldly, "Miss Zhong, my participation in the
banquet naturally qualifiesto bid for the project."
"You may have the qualification to participate, but you're still out of your depth!"
Zhong Qiangian sneered, then pointed out to the group of gossiping entrepreneurs outside, "With your assets
and capability, that’s where you belong, understand?"
"You..." Liu Tianyun was infuriated, knowing that Zhong Qiangian meant she was unqualified to be there, yet she
couldn't find the words to refute.
The entrepreneurs involved in the bidding could clearly see the deep-seated conflict between the two.
Initially, they weren't interested in the pier project that only had an investment of a billion dollars, and were
somewhat bored and ready to leave. However, they couldn't help but show interest and decided to stay when
they saw this unfold.
"Miss Ye, we've known each other since we were kids. | hope you allow our Zhong Family to take on this project.
We're willing to invest 1.5 billion US Dollars, while the shares will be 51% owned by Li Corporation," Zhong
Qiangian said to Ye Qiging, the arrogance on her face replaced with flattery and hope.
Ye Qiging ignored her and looked at Liu Tianyun instead.
"What a beautiful woman."
She was genuinely amazed by Liu Tianyun’s beauty and praised her in her heart.
As the number one beauty in the Capital City, it was her first tcomplimenting someone’s beauty, even if just
in her mind.
"Hello, may | ask who you are?" Ye Qiging asked.
Suppressing her anger incited by Zhong Qiangian, Liu Tianyun forced a smile and said, "Hello Miss Ye, | am..."
"Miss Ye, she’s the eldest daughter of the Liu Family from Celestial Sea, whose family assets total less than a
hundred million US Dollars. They don’t have the capital to cooperate on this project with you," Zhong Qiangian
abruptly interrupted Liu Tianyun, throwing a sarcastic glance at her.
The Liu Family from Celestial Sea?
Ye Qiging supported her chin with one hand and pondered.
Before coming to Celestial Sea, she had learned about the four major families there.
The Liu Family's strength was mediocre, constantly ranking second or third, with total assets around 600 million
US Dollars.
This level of strength might be decent in Celestial Sea...
But in the Capital City, it’s far from enough.
Not to mention the Capital City, even for this project that requires at least a billion US Dollars in investment, the
Liu Family might not be able to shell out the money.
"Miss Liu, for this dock project, Li Corporation plans to invest between one to 1.2 billion US Dollars. As a partner,
your side needs to contribute at least 800 million US Dollars. Can you offer that amount? If not... I'm afraid I'll
have to apologize," said Ye Qiging somewhat helplessly.
Not long ago, she was quite upset by Zhong Buwang’s public confession under the influence of alcohol, slapping
him on the face.
Consequently, she harbored ill feelings toward the entire Zhong Family.
If she had to choose between Liu Tianyun and Zhong Qiangian, Ye Qiging would undoubtedly pick Liu Tianyun.
But if the Liu Family lacks enough power, nothing can be done.
Hearing the figure "800 million," Liu Tianyun’s face turned pale. She bit her lip and tentatively asked, "Miss Ye,
can your side contribute a bit more?"
Ye Qiqging’s delicate brows furrowed, and she replied, "At most 1.3 billion, but in that case, Li Corporation must
hold 70% of the shares."
1.3 billion means the other side must contribute 700 million.
Liu Tianyun couldn't afford it but still wanted to try, so she gritted her teeth and asked, "Miss Ye, can | owe you
the amount for now and pay it back later?"
As soon as she said this.
Ye Qiging let out a light laugh.
The surrounding entrepreneurs also burst into a mocking laugh.
Even Liu Tianyun felt her words were foolish, a hint of embarrassment flashing across her face.
With so many well-capitalized investors present, why would Ye Qiging choose herself, someone who needs a loan
and plans to pay back the partnership money in increments later?
"Liu Tianyun, oh Liu Tianyun, you don’t recognize your own strength, do you?"
"And now you want to owe money? It's a joke, do you think Li Corporation can’t do without collaborating with
you, or do you think the project can’t proceed without you?"
"You're utterly unaware of your own capabilities, no wonder you seemed foolish. It's utterly laughable that you
had the audacity to try and compete with me, Zhong Qiangian, for this project!"
"I told you to get lost earlier, but you didn’t listen, now look? You've utterly disgraced yourself, regret it now,
huh?"
Zhong Qiangian held her head high like a proud hen, with a face full of mockery, her words as offensive as
possible.
Liu Tianyun clenched her fists, her nails sinking into her palms, drawing a little blood, her gaze icy.
This look might have a strong impact on the employees of Tianyun International but was utterly ineffective
against a pampered young lady like Zhong Qiangian from the Capital City.
"What? You get anxious after being talked about a bit?" Zhong Qiangian pointed at the hotel entrance, sneering,
"If you're upset, then leave. After all, in this banquet, neither you nor Ye Huan even qualified as extras; frankly,
you're both just here to eat!"
"You... Fine, I'll go!"
Liu Tianyun couldn't swallow her anger, throwing down those words, before cold-faced, leaving the crowd,
heading towards the corner of the hotel.
Then, she froze.
Completely bewildered.
She saw seven or eight armed Special Forces officers holding Ye Huan.
A special duty soldier in a black trench coat, wearing sunglasses, stood with his arms behind his back, sporting a
serious expression:
"Sir, mental illnesses require prompt treatment, please don’t delay medical care. We've already called an
