Late night... 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

A ring sits on the table; two hours have passed, and time seems to have frozen. Lin Zifeng’s eyes are already befuddled, and he can’t even lift his eyelids.

Yet, the Star Ring still shows no reaction.

"I say, beloved, where’s the stele or writing? I’ve been staring at this for two hours. There’s no phenomenon from the Star Ring at all," Lin Zifeng blinked his dry eyes, having not blinked much in those two hours. Tears almost flowed down, making him begin to wonder if this was an elaborate prank by the Old Buddha.

"!!!" Nangong Bing was dumbfounded too. It was fine before; why is there no reaction from the Star Ring tonight? Nangong Bing was puzzled.

"I..."

"I know." Lin Zifeng smiled mysteriously. Although the Old Buddha couldn’t explain, he pretty much guessed something.

"The Star Ring has recognized you as its master. Besides you, probably no one can see those ancient texts," Lin Zifeng said.

"But... when I was alone before, it really floated, and two ancient steles appeared inside," Nangong Bing explained.

But she knew that no matter how much she explained, without seeing it firsthand, the sense of shock is hard to express in words.

"I understand. Maybe its secrets are only for you, as you’re its true master. Just like the Magic Bracelet inside me; no one else can make it work," Lin Zifeng replied.

"But..."

Nangong Bing hesitated, wanting to say something but felt disappointed. Initially, she wanted to save the secret for Lin Zifeng to see, hoping he could gain some benefits from it. Now it seems that besides her, it’s hard for anyone to witness those two steles and ancient texts firsthand.

"Don’t worry; the Star Ring has recognized you as its master. As it stands, at least it’s not causing you substantial harm. Since you can’t resist, why not learn to enjoy it?" Lin Zifeng hugged her.

Smelling the fragrance emanating from her jade-like body. It was very pleasant.

"Well, if that’s the case, I hope it won’t be detrimental to me," Nangong Bing thought for a while and agreed there was some logic in his words. Then, she lifted her head to look at him, "So what next?"

"What do you mean?" Lin Zifeng asked.

"Of course, it’s Huayu Group."

"Proceed as usual. Currently, Huayu Group’s foundation in Yanjing is insufficient, so keep managing Huayu in the meantime. How’s the filming going for Huahua and Tangtang’s new movie?" Lin Zifeng asked.

"Everything is proceeding smoothly, and filming should be completed in another half month," Nangong Bing replied.

"No, that’s too slow. At most, it should be completed in a week; we don’t have time to waste. Being too late won’t benefit us," Lin Zifeng said calmly, touching his chin and contemplating Huayu Group’s future.

"A week? Impossible! How could filming possibly be completed in a week? Besides, post-production can’t be rushed out," Nangong Bing was surprised. Though she wasn’t familiar with the movie industry, she knew that shooting a commercial film and reaching post-production couldn’t be completed in such a short time, budget aside.

That’s industry rule; everyone understands.

However, Lin Zifeng understands, but what he seeks is time efficiency.

"No, the slowest is a week to finish filming. For post-production, no matter the scale or cost, I’ll have it squeezed out in a week," Lin Zifeng said unwaveringly. The new film by Huayu Group was significant for him.

"But..."

"Success comes from efforts. I believe pushing a bit can work," Lin Zifeng smiled while hugging her slim waist, and his mischievous hands began to misbehave on her body.

"Impossible! It can’t be done in a week. Even if Huahua and Tangtang worked day and night, the task is too overwhelming. I can’t assure you definitively. I need to consult Director Zhang."

The Director Zhang was naturally Zhang Mengjie. Everyone called her Zhang Jie, but Nangong Bing felt awkward addressing her that way and didn’t do so.

"I’ve already contacted Director Zhang."

"What did she say then?" Nangong Bing’s eyes sharpened, realizing he’d arranged everything, and now it’s merely a report to her?

"She agreed with my idea," Lin Zifeng grinned and then hugged her fragrant shoulder, smiling, "Don’t worry. People thrive under pressure. I trust Huayu Group’s employees will deliver under pressure." Lin Zifeng encouraged her with a significant look.

"Since you’ve already decided, we’ll proceed as planned. But let me remind you, Huayu Group is still in its growth and consolidation phase, and the pressure might counterproductively,"

"Huayu Group has weathered storms; if we can’t endure this setback, what’s the value of Huayu Group’s existence?" Lin Zifeng said with a smile on his lips.

"..."

Nangong Bing said nothing. Knowing Lin Zifeng’s determination was firm, saying more was redundant...

.........

Early the next morning, Lin Zifeng hurriedly arrived at Huayu Group in Yanjing. As soon as he entered, nearly every employee’s face reflected both the joy of enthusiasm and the strain of stress.

New company, new battlefield; despite exhaustion, all company staff showed great dedication.

Lin Zifeng was pleased with this effect. The Huayu Moutian Building was originally Beiming Group’s; Beiming Yu decided to sell it to Huayu Group. Frankly, it was as if not sold because Huayu Group still holds 50% of the shares in Beiming Yu’s possession.

Who wouldn’t take this kind of business that just provides a platform and earns money sitting?

"Young Master Lin!"

At this moment, Lin Zifeng had just stepped into the company when Zhang Xixi, carrying a bundle of folders, walked over.

Lin Zifeng hesitated, seeing her today in a sexy OL professional outfit, which made his heart skip a beat. Indeed, very sexy. Zhang Xixi arrived last night; with no place to stay, she temporarily resided in a hotel.

Due to the busy establishment of the new company in Yanjing, many employees from Zhonghai hadn’t found accommodations, some even staying in offices and sleeping directly on makeshift beds.

Today, Lin Zifeng entrusted this matter to Mu Yang. Fortunately, Beiming Yu provided many houses just in time, or else these workers would again sleep in the company tonight. In retrospect, Lin Zifeng felt quite sorry for these employees, who were all Nangong Bing’s old subordinates in Tianyu. A group striving for their dreams.

(Just to clarify, many people say Huahua is irresponsible, disregarding readers, and hasn’t updated during the day. Gosh! Huahua is truly trying hard; the book has reached its middle and even late stages, and while outlining, writing, and setting up the story, updates have been deferred to night-time. But you can’t be so heartless, saying I’m only seeking votes without respecting readers. However, Huahua wants to write better stories finely for everyone to enjoy! It’s unjust! If it’s not good, would you read it? Same as always, this month the Monthly ticket is doubled; one vote counts as two. Please lend a helping hand. This month, Huahua will make an effort! In May, Huahua will update five times daily!)
