Chapter 346 - 345: Shared Objective
When Fang Cheng came out of the study, he looked directly at Yiyi and asked, "Did you have something you needed to discuss with me?" He was puzzled as to why Yiyi would come looking for him, but seeing her expression, he was certain something had happened.
"Yes, I have something I want to discuss with you."
Ever since she saw the whitening pills produced by Medicine Valley Pharmaceutical, she had a gut feeling that these pills were definitely produced by Medicine Valley. The first person that came to her mind was Leng Yu, so she directly came to find Fang Cheng.
"Yiyi, you and A Cheng chat first; I’ll go slice some fruit for you."
Seeing the two had something to discuss, Yang Liu smiled and went to the kitchen.
Yiyi didn’t beat around the bush and said directly, "Currently, your sister is still studying abroad, right?"
"Yes, she is still abroad. I’ll consider letting her come back after she graduates. But why are you suddenly concerned about Xiao Chan?" Fang Cheng was genuinely puzzled about Yiyi’s intention, and he was even more confused when she mentioned Fang Chan. As far as he knew, Yiyi and his sister Fang Chan didn’t exactly get along.
Yiyi didn’t answer but continued asking, "And your mother still lives in the old house?"
Fang Cheng, always quick-witted, immediately guessed Yiyi’s purpose, "Do you have news about Leng Yu?"
He had always kept in mind the instigator who incited his mother and harmed Liu’er. After she escaped last time, he searched for a long time but found no trace of Leng Yu. Now that Yiyi mentioned his mother and sister, he felt she was here because of Leng Yu.
Hearing Fang Cheng’s question, Yiyi shook her head and said, "I don’t have specific news about her yet, but take a look at this." Saying that, she handed him the bottle of whitening pills.
Fang Cheng took the bottle and, looking a bit puzzled, asked, "Are these pills from your pharmaceutical plant?" He knew Yiyi had set up a pharmaceutical plant, and the pills produced there were quite popular. Seeing this pill bottle, he subconsciously thought it belonged to Yiyi’s pharmaceutical plant.
"Look closely at the bottle. This isn’t from our pharmaceutical plant."
Upon hearing this, Fang Cheng examined it carefully and saw the label from Medicine Valley, "Medicine Valley? What kind of pharmaceutical plant is this?" But he quickly caught on. Since Yiyi came to him because of Leng Yu, the bottle she brought must have significant meaning.
"Is Leng Yu in this Medicine Valley?"
"Whether she’s in Medicine Valley now, I don’t know, but I know she is definitely linked to them. I came today to ask if you still plan to deal with Leng Yu?"
Without hesitation, Fang Cheng replied, "Of course, I do. This woman harmed Liu’er, and I must make her pay."
Up till now, he and Liu’er didn’t have any children. Though he didn’t mind personally, Liu’er was deeply concerned and would often cry secretly at night. He found out about it one night when he came home late. Thus, he became even more determined to catch Leng Yu.
Hearing Fang Cheng’s determination, Yiyi nodded and said, "Since your intentions haven’t changed, then our goals align."
At this point, Fang Cheng became curious.
"Do you also want to deal with Leng Yu? But you don’t seem to have any connection with her."
Yiyi’s eyes were cold. "My target isn’t Leng Yu. My target is Medicine Valley."
Upon hearing this, Fang Cheng glanced at Yiyi and asked, "Have you heard of Medicine Valley before?"
"Yes, I’ve heard some rumors."
Seeing that Yiyi wasn’t planning to elaborate, Fang Cheng didn’t press further and just said, "Thank you for the information; I’ll investigate thoroughly."
"Okay, if I find anything first, I’ll let you know too."
Hearing this, Fang Cheng said, "Thank you in advance."
At this moment, Yang Liu returned with the fruit, "A Cheng, Yiyi, have some fruit first."
Yiyi thanked her with a smile and ate a few slices of apple.
"Yiyi, have some more."
Upon hearing this, Yiyi ate a few more slices.
"Yiyi, are you done discussing things with A Cheng?"
"Yes, we’ve finished our discussion," Yiyi replied with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Yang Liu smiled and said, "Then let’s chat for a bit." She then inquired about Fei Erya.
"Er Ya just got discharged today, and she’s recovering well. In a few days, we could have a meal together."
Yang Liu nodded eagerly and said, "Great, the three of us should definitely get together." At the end of her sentence, she couldn’t help but glance at Yiyi and said, "Today Er Ya got discharged; why didn’t you tell me beforehand so I could help with the discharge?"
"No need, Er Ya’s father was there, so there were enough people."
Hearing this, Yang Liu was reassured.
Yiyi chatted a bit more with her and then left.
After Yiyi left, Yang Liu couldn’t help but look at Fang Cheng and asked, "What did Yiyi talk to you about?" She was still curious about why Yiyi came looking for Fang Cheng, as they didn’t seem to have much in common.
"It’s nothing, just discussing the recent collaboration between our Fang Family and the Chu family. Yiyi’s mother is a key part of this, as her designs are crucial for this clothing line production, so that’s why she came to see me."
Recently, the Fang Family indeed had a collaboration with the Chu family, so what he said was completely plausible.
Upon hearing this, Yang Liu didn’t suspect anything.
Fang Cheng, seeing this, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Ever since he witnessed his wife’s painful tears, he didn’t want her to hear anything about Leng Yu again. He feared that mentioning it would hurt Liu’er again, so this time when Yiyi came to see him, he didn’t specify the reason.
Meanwhile, after leaving the Fang Family, Yiyi headed straight to Guo Ming’s place at Shichahai.
"Young Master, how come you have time to come by today."
Seeing Yiyi, Pei Jin approached with a smile and asked.
Seeing Pei Jin, Yiyi asked, "Where’s my master?"
"The Sect Leader is in the backyard practicing boxing; I’ll go call him."
But before Pei Jin could call him, Guo Ming had already come out, "Yiyi, what brings you here today?"
Seeing Guo Ming, Yiyi couldn’t help but smile, "I had some free time in the afternoon, so I came to see you. Have you been busy lately?"
"Not busy. Things with the Yin sect have settled down now, and with Pei Jin and the others supporting me, I have some free time." As he spoke, Guo Ming looked at Yiyi and said, "Since you started college, you haven’t practiced martial arts with me properly. Now that you’re here today, let’s spar for a few rounds."
Upon hearing this, Yiyi naturally nodded in agreement.
The master and disciple chatted as they moved to the backyard, quickly sparring with each other.
However, Yiyi indeed had been a bit lax lately, and after nearly a hundred moves with Guo Ming, she was panting slightly.
Seeing this, Guo Ming stopped and said, "Yiyi, you’ve been slacking; that’s not good. I heard you’re on break now, so from tomorrow morning, come over here, and we’ll continue practicing."
"Alright."
Yiyi naturally didn’t object to his words.
