The Record of Unusual Creatures - Things Are Getting Interesting…

In truth, Ouyang Qing’s words carried a hidden meaning, that was to be careful of Amaterasu Genetics. Now that they had offended them, they had to keep a watchful eye out.
    

Next to the files on Amaterasu Genetics was a red invitation letter. He conveniently picked it up. “Tonight? Is this the reason you called me over?”
    

“This invitation was sent by my uncle. He was originally one of Wanrong Technology’s shareholders.” Ouyang Qing said as she stared at Ye Lingchen. “This time he is joined with many of our ex-shareholders to send us this invitation.”
    

“Could it be that they are thinking of taking back their shares?” Ye Lingchen’s brows twitched.
    

“That shouldn’t be the case. I think they might just be trying to rejoin the company,” Ouyang Qing speculated. She paused a moment before continuing, “They were veterans of Wanrong Technology. Even if they have left their post, it’s difficult for our company to cut all ties with them. Therefore, we can’t ignore this. This has to be handled carefully.”
    

Ye Lingchen nodded.
    

If these people were to spread some scandals about Wanrong Technology, that would bring them quite some trouble.
    

“Fine, I’ll attend the banquet!” Ye Lingchen shrugged. As for how the banquet would be, he was unfazed.
    

Following that, Ye Lingchen did not leave Wanrong Technology. Instead, he proceeded to manage some of the company matters.
    

He was a Prodigy after all. Management matters were handled easily.
    

The proposals that were discussed in the meeting were sent to him in batches. Ye Lingchen’s reading speed was extremely quick. He was able to see through the feasibility and shortcomings of each file with just a simple glance.
    

He marked several important documents, then immediately made arrangements for the locations to open regular chain stores. Jinghai City, Ye Lingchen’s hometown, was naturally included.
    

It would seem that he would need a secretary in the future. It would be best for him to establish a secretarial department to filter documents for him. Those inconsequential documents would then be left for them to settle.
    

Although Ouyang Qing was a great talent, she was limited by how much she could do. Furthermore, her forte was on technology. Management, research, production, and other important departments need to be separated. That way, it would allow for checks and balances.
    

Time passed without him noticing.
    

“Master! I miss you so much!” Xu Nan had just gotten off work and rushed back. She screamed out loud and jumped toward him the moment she saw Ye Lingchen. Her face was flushed red with excitement. “Master, you’re too handsome. I was boiling with excitement when I saw your live stream. When will you continue to teach me so that I can take the giant python on by myself?”
    

Ye Lingchen shook his head while smiling. “Let’s save that until you’ve completed the stances I taught you.”
    

Xu Nan’s expression turned dour instantly. “It’s too difficult. I’ve only managed to reach the fourth stance until now. However, the effects are superb. My physical traits improved greatly. Moreover, I’ve just broken the training record in my unit as the fastest.”
    

“Your ability to reach the fourth stance means that you’re quite talented.”
    

“Master, am I considered a martial artist now?” Xu Nan smiled smugly. 
    

Ye Lingchen nodded with a smile. In truth, Xu Nan’s overall traits were much higher than the average martial artist.
    

“When you’ve completed the fourth stance, I’ll teach you some new Kungfu.”
    

“Really? Master, you’re the best!” Xu Nan exclaimed happily. 
    

Following Xu Nan, Xu Wanqing had also come over. She nodded at Ye Lingchen, quiet as always—a stark contrast compared to Xu Nan.
    

Following that, Chairman Xu and Chairman Ouyang joined them as well. It would seem that they treated this meeting with the ex-shareholders rather seriously.
    

The relationships between them were a little messy. Ye Lingchen was the student and Xu Wanqing the teacher. Meanwhile, Xu Nan was Ye Lingchen’s disciple. On the other hand, Ye Lingchen was Chairman Xu’s big boss.
    

It was about time. The group got into an Alphard MPV and headed off together.
    

The Alphard was grand. It was a 7-seater with a retail price between 700 to 900 thousand. It was the primary choice of high-end MPV for many large corporations. 
    

At the Heavenly Garden…
    

If the Grand Capital Restaurant represented Capital City’s traditional restaurant, then the Heavenly Garden was a modern representation of Capital City’s restaurants. From the facade of the building, the designs were modernized. The entire building was built by blending the essence of eastern and western style. The outer walls were filled with lights and the main gates of the restaurant had a huge sculpture of a pegasus. Behind it was a huge fountain.
    

“Haha, Chairman Xu, Chairman Ouyang, you’re finally here.”
    

Before they could enter the restaurant, a plump middle-aged man was walking out to greet them with a smile on his face. Behind him were four others. They were all over 50 years old; one of them even had more than half his hair turned grey. 
    

“Uncle.” Xu Nan and the girls greeted the middle-aged man.
    

“Hehe, Director Xia, everyone, it’s been a while since we met.” Chairman Xu and Chairman Ouyang smiled, then started chatting with the others. After all, they had gone through various hardships together and had a good relationship with each other.
    

“This little brother here looks impressive. I can feel an aura of grandeur being emitted from between your brows. You’re definitely not an ordinary person. You must be Chairman Ye, right? I’ve long heard of Chairman Ye being young, but I’ve never expected you to be so successful despite your age. I’m truly impressed!” Director Xia greeted Ye Lingchen with a round of bootlicking right off the bat.
    

With this many people, he knew everyone apart from Ye Lingchen. Who else could Chairman Ye be?
    

“Chairman Ye is truly capable, having managed to save Wanrong Technology at such a critical moment!”
    

“To be able to meet Chairman Ye today is really my good fortune.”
    

The rest of them followed suit in their praises.
    

“Thank you for your kind words,” Ye Lingchen replied casually. He did not like such situations, especially when he knew that those praising him had ulterior motives.
    

They showed no dissatisfaction toward Ye Lingchen’s attitude. Instead, they continued to smile along. “It’s to our surprise that Chairman Ye would grace us with your presence. Please, come in.”
    

Having said that, they immediately led the way for Ye Lingchen.
    

Along the way, Ye Lingchen’s brows kept twitching. There was a puzzled look in his eyes.
    

This event was given high priority by Heavenly Garden, therefore, they had greeters standing on both sides along the way, bowing at the group as they passed. Entering the restaurant, the internal decor was grand. All the services provided were of the highest class.
    

Because of that, Ye Lingchen noticed that this entire restaurant was most likely completely reserved to serve them alone!
    

Such great expenses. It was impossible for the few shareholders to pull this off.
    

Entering the private room, it was sufficiently grand to fill up to a hundred people! Right then, the table was filled with alcohol and snacks. The alcohol was Heavenly Cellar Aged Spirit, famous in China and overseas. Each bottle would cost at least RMB5,000. The longer it was aged, the higher the price went.
    

From the moment they entered the private room, the corner of Ye Lingchen’s lips curled up ever so slightly. His keen senses detected others hidden in the two rooms beside the private room. ‘Things are getting interesting…’
