Chapter 33 Insider Secrets
"Who is Bei Ling? What's the story with Li Yuechi?"
Hearing the noise, Fatty Lin came over and asked.
"Bei Ling is the most beautiful courtesan in the Heavenly Palace, as for Li Yuechi..."
Mr. Yang chuckled and said, "A while ago, Brother Feng and I went to Heaven on Earth for a good time. Li Yuechi was still there then. I wanted to ask Brother Feng to sleep with Li Yuechi, but alas, Brother Feng refused!"
"Holy crap, you lunatic, why didn't you tell me this? That's Li Yuechi, the most beautiful Miss Hong Kong!" Fatty Lin exploded upon hearing this.
"Old Lin, Li Yuechi is just so-so, no different from other women. There are so many actresses in Beijing, tell me who you've got your eye on, and I'll arrange a date for you. There have been quite a few spiritual retreats these past two years, and many actresses believe in this. With your cultivation level, it's a piece of cake!" President Yang said with a smile.
Fatty Lin thought for a moment, then sighed and said, "Forget it, I don't want to get involved in this mess. I still prefer the models from Sora Aoi!"
"So, do you have time today? If so, come to my company and have some fun. I'll ask Boss Shi to select some people!" Boss Yang said.
"Yes, we two brothers happen to have something to ask you!" Fatty Lin said.
"Okay, I'll have Dacheng pick you up. Come on over!" said President Yang.
Half an hour later, we arrived at the top floor of the Jinghu Building.
When we arrived, Mr. Yang was standing with his arms crossed, looking at the night view of Beijing through the floor-to-ceiling window.
"What are you thinking about?"
Just as Da Cheng was about to speak, Fatty Lin barked out loudly.
"I'm feeling a bit emotional!" President Yang said, turning around.
"What are you lamenting about? Didn't you see through it all long ago? Otherwise, you wouldn't have relinquished power so early and started living your own life!" Fatty Lin walked over and poured himself a glass of red wine.
"Old Lin, I'm currently somewhere between seeing through things and not seeing through them!" said Boss Yang.
"You're just being dramatic!"
Fatty Lin shook his head.
General Manager Yang shook his head and said to Da Cheng, "Da Cheng, go down and keep an eye on things. When General Manager Shi's men arrive, just bring them up!"
"Yes, Mr. Yang!"
A hint of disappointment flashed in Da Cheng's eyes, but he still nodded readily.
"You're just lamenting the death of a rabbit!"
After Da Cheng entered the elevator, Fatty Lin patted President Yang on the shoulder and said, "You rich people always think about so many unnecessary things!"
"Old Lin, it's not that I'm overthinking it, it's just that Bei Ling's death was too tragic!"
Mr. Yang downed the glass of red wine in one gulp and said, "Killing someone is just a matter of beheading them!"
"What happened?" I asked.
"It's been cut off here!" Mr. Yang gestured in front of himself.
"That's ruthless?" I frowned.
"That's how ruthless we are!"
President Yang let out a breath and said, "This is both revenge and a warning. It's a warning to certain people that these scions of powerful families have deep roots and are not to be trifled with by those who climb the social ladder through sycophancy!"
"See, I told you you were just feeling sorry for me!" Fatty Lin poured wine for Boss Yang and asked, "Red wine isn't very refreshing, do you have any beer?"
"Old Lin, oh Old Lin!"
Mr. Yang chuckled, turned back to the landline, pressed a button, and said, "Bring up two cases of beer..."
He paused, then asked Fatty Lin, "Old Lin, what brand do you drink?"
"Whatever!" Fatty Lin replied.
"Pick out two boxes of the cleanest ones and send them up!" said General Manager Yang.
Distracted by Fatty Lin, President Yang's mood improved a bit.
"Brother Yang, judging from your expression, you know quite a bit of inside information?" I asked.
"The news of Bei Ling's death has spread throughout the industry. It's really nothing special; President Qin used Bei Ling to gather a lot of information and then used that information to do some shady things!"
"There's a saying: 'What a ruler rises by, he will also fall by!'"
"President Qin sold his shares in Heaven on Earth this year because he couldn't withstand the pressure!"
"Where is Mr. Qin's great-aunt?" I asked.
"The reason why President Qin hasn't run into any trouble yet is because of that old lady!" President Yang said.
"That heavenly paradise?" I asked.
"Li Yuechi has disappeared. I don't know if she ran away or went somewhere else. The other three top courtesans will probably retire. As for Heaven on Earth itself, it should still be able to stay open, but I don't know how many more years it can stay open!" said President Yang.
"So, will President Qin retire from the entertainment industry?" I asked.
"I heard he started a film and television company, and I guess he's going to get involved in the entertainment industry. Who knows when you might run into him!" President Yang joked.
"Sure, someone like President Qin who's always chasing after women probably doesn't have much kidney. I'll give him a makeover!" I joked.
"By the way, Yang, do you know anything about Li Feihong?" Fatty Lin asked.
"Why did you suddenly think of asking him?" President Yang asked.
"He just left our place!" Fatty Lin briefly explained that Li Feihong had come to see a doctor.
After pondering for a while, President Yang said, "I don't know much about Li Feihong's private affairs, but I do know why he's been making so many public appearances over the past year!"
"Why?" I asked.
"Set up a charitable foundation!"
Mr. Yang scoffed and said, "Mr. Ou approached me about this, but I didn't want to get involved and declined!"
"Isn't this a good thing? Why aren't you getting involved?" Fatty Lin asked meaningfully.
"I know all too well what those foundations are all about; they're nothing more than money-making tools disguised as charity!" President Yang scoffed. "I'm not short of money; there's no need for me to get involved in this and dirty my hands!"
"By the way, Li Feihong and Li Danna weren't that in love!"
After saying that, President Yang seemed to remember something and added a sentence.
"How so?" I was a little curious as to why President Yang would ask such a question.
"A few years ago, after my company went public in America, I was incredibly famous and became a representative of new money in China!" Mr. Yang said, taking a sip of his drink. "During that time, all sorts of shady characters came knocking on our door!"
"What does all this have to do with Li Feihong?" I asked curiously.
"Don't interrupt, you lunatic!" Fatty Lin glared at me, clinked glasses with Boss Yang, and said, "Brother Yang, please continue!"
"Um!"
Mr. Yang took another sip of his drink and said, "I was attending a global economic summit in Hong Kong at the time. During those days, Mr. Jin and Mr. Li invited me to meet. Mr. Ou acted as the intermediary, and I couldn't refuse, so I attended their gathering!"
At this point, Mr. Yang clicked his tongue and said, "Brother Feng, Lao Lin, after my company successfully went public, we indulged in a life of extravagance for a while. Back then, I thought I was good at having fun, but after attending their parties, I realized what it really means to know how to have fun!"
"Who are President Jin and President Li?" I asked.
"Mr. Kim is the head of the Golden Valley of the Four Great Conglomerates, and Mr. Lee is the head of the Lee Valley of the Four Great Conglomerates!"
Mr. Yang explained patiently.
