Chapter 44

"Quickly answer, quickly answer."

Upon hearing the call from Qianbao Group, Lin Sang's body trembled, and she hurriedly urged her daughter to answer the phone.

Lin Xiaoyan quickly picked it up and answered. A moment later, she hung up, her face full of surprise.

Lin Sang hurriedly asked, "Xiaoyan, who was on the phone?

What did they say?"

Tang Sanguo and Lin Qiuling also came over.

"Mom, it was a call from Qianbao Group just now."

Lin Xiaoyan said happily, "Secretary Qian said they've seen my resume and asked me to prepare my documents to attend training at Qianbao Group tomorrow."

"They will also pay me a salary of 8,000 yuan per month, and if I perform well, I can start an internship after three months."

"If I don't make any mistakes during the internship, I can smoothly become a regular employee with a base salary of 20,000 yuan and a bonus."

Thinking about becoming a member of Qianbao Group and earning so much money, Lin Xiaoyan became excited and spoke with even more confidence.

"Really?"

Lin Sang looked at her daughter doubtfully, "Was it really a call from Qianbao Group?"

"Yes, I checked, and the phone number is indeed from Qianbao Group, and I recognize Secretary Qian's voice."

Lin Xiaoyan nodded seriously, "She has given lectures at my school before."

Tang Ruoxue glanced at Ye Fei, her gaze complex, both surprised by Ye Fei's efficiency and annoyed by Song Hongyan's obedience to him.

Ye Fei understood the woman's meaning but could only smile bitterly, unable to explain that Han Yue had become his disciple.

With confirmation, Lin Sang was extremely excited, "That's great, my daughter can join Qianbao Group. It's truly a blessing from heaven."

This way, not only would her daughter have a bright future, but she could also boast about it.

"It's not a blessing from heaven."

Lin Qiuling snorted, "It's because Ye Fei helped a lot."

Tang Ruoxue and Ye Fei exchanged a smile, rare for Lin Qiuling to acknowledge Ye Fei once.

"Ye Fei?"

Lin Sang came to her senses and sneered, "Are your ears deaf?

Didn't you hear Xiaoyan say that Qianbao Group saw her resume?"

"It's clearly because our Xiaoyan is outstanding, and Qianbao Group saw her potential, so they chose her out of thousands."

"What does it have to do with your Ye Fei?"

"Do you really think I would believe that Xiaoyan got into Qianbao Group because of his call?"

Her eyes were full of disdain, "It's just a coincidence."

Lin Xiaoyan also had a mocking look, "Aunt, let's not even talk about Ye Fei's lack of ability. Even if he had connections, Qianbao Group isn't a place you can get into through connections."

"They must have seen my looks and personality, so they recruited me as fresh blood."

She instantly forgot that she had come here to ask for a favor.

Tang Ruoxue was taken aback, "Xiaoyan..."

"Enough, don't say anything more."

Lin Sang impatiently interrupted Tang Ruoxue, "If you want to make your man look good, just say it. Don't attribute Xiaoyan's excellence to Ye Fei's ability."

"A man who relies on your Tang family for living and pocket money, how could he have the ability to help our Xiaoyan get into Qianbao Group?"

"You couldn't even get Han Nanhua to give you face, how could Ye Fei make him give face?

Don't try to fool me."

She didn't believe Ye Fei had any influence at all.

Lin Qiuling couldn't help but stand up, "Ye Fei may not have the ability, but the Song Hongyan he knows does..."

"Ye Fei, tell her, did you help?"

She was really getting angry.

She knew that with Lin Xiaoyan's abilities, she couldn't even be a nurse at Chunfeng Clinic, let alone be chosen by Qianbao Group with an 8,000 yuan salary.

It must have been Ye Fei using Song Hongyan's connections.

She didn't like Ye Fei, but she couldn't let Lin Sang forget the Tang family's contributions.

"Sang..."

Ye Fei was about to explain, but Lin Sang rudely interrupted, "What Sang?

Can you call me that?"

"Alright, let's not argue anymore. The more we argue, the more complicated it gets. If we keep arguing, even Du Tianhu will come out."

"Xiaoyan got into Qianbao Group today, and I'm happy, so I won't argue with you people who are so pretentious."

"As long as you're happy, if you say Ye Fei helped, then he helped. Whatever makes you happy, that's fine, okay?"

"But I will never come to this door again. I'll leave the gift box as a farewell gift."

"You take care of yourselves."

With that, she lifted her head and pulled Lin Xiaoyan away.

As Lin Xiaoyan left, she wondered to herself: Did I even submit a resume to Qianbao Group?

Then she dismissed these thoughts. No matter what, she was now in Qianbao Group and would soon reach the peak of her life.

She quickly posted a WeChat moment titled "One Resume, Straight to Qianbao."

Lin Sang and her daughter quickly disappeared, leaving Lin Qiuling and Tang Sanguo with sour faces, clearly feeling a sense of frustration.

Ye Fei smiled bitterly, knowing he had caused trouble for Han Yue and was determined to treat her well.

Tang Ruoxue comforted her parents, "Dad, Mom, let it go, there's no need to argue with Sang..."

"Useless thing."

Lin Qiuling slapped the coffee table and scolded Ye Fei, "You can't even do a small thing right."

Then she stormed upstairs with a gloomy face.

"Ye Fei, since you helped, here's the gift from Sang. Take it."

Tang Sanguo threw the gift box at Ye Fei and left gloomily.

Ye Fei was taken aback, then shook his head, "Dad, you keep it. I don't need it."

"Just take it, don't make it so complicated."

Tang Sanguo waved his hand impatiently, not allowing Ye Fei to say anything more.

Tang Ruoxue gently tugged at Ye Fei's sleeve, suggesting it was better to comply while her parents were angry.

"I'll go change and cook with you later."

Tang Ruoxue let go of Ye Fei and went upstairs with her handbag.

Ye Fei opened the gift box to find a ceramic figurine of a Yue girl dancing with a sword. The color and craftsmanship were poor, more of a souvenir than a work of art.

It looked neither new nor old, probably a defective product from the early reform and opening-up period.

Ye Fei believed that this item would be hard to sell for 200 yuan in an antique market.

"Whoosh—" As Ye Fei was thinking about how to deal with it, the Taiji symbol on his left hand moved slightly.

Ye Fei sensed a powerful and ominous presence.

However, when he picked up the ceramic figurine to examine it, he found nothing suspicious.

The Yue girl dancing with a sword was clearly a product of a knockoff factory, lacking any historical aura.

But the Life and Death Stone became increasingly active, as if attracted by something.

"Clang—" Ye Fei ran to the kitchen, found a secluded corner, and smashed the ceramic figurine.

Ceramic shards scattered, but nothing was inside, and there was no sign of any hidden compartment.

Ye Fei, not giving up, stomped on it a few more times. Just as he was about to give up, he heard a crack.

The small sword in the Yue girl's hand developed several long cracks.

Ye Fei picked it up and shook it, and the ceramic pieces of the small sword fell off.

A brilliant light flashed.

Ye Fei instinctively squinted.

"Whoosh—" A soft sword about five inches long appeared before him.

It was as thin as a cicada's wing, as soft as flowing water, and shaped like a small intestine, but it looked incredibly sharp.

Ye Fei was overjoyed, "The Yu Chang Sword!"
