Chapter 563: Standing on Invincible Ground

Li Guangming said with a smile, “It’s Shen Yuyan, the daughter of Jiangcheng’s hidden tycoon, Shen Wanpeng. She’s beautiful, very capable, and the Shen family is strong too. Plus, Shen Wanpeng is friends with my dad, so it naturally occurred to them that we should be together. I think it’s not bad either. Shen Yuyan indeed is beautiful. Compared to Song Xue and Zhou Xiaodie, she’s definitely not outclassed!”

He had looked over Shen Yuyan’s profile and even had a video call with her.

Although Shen Yuyan was rather aloof, her beauty was genuine, and she was also his type.

The moment he saw Shen Yuyan, he felt that if he were to marry, it should be with a woman like her. If marriage was out of the question, he still had to have her no matter what.

Bai Kunyu frowned slightly, “Brother Ming, from what I know, it seems that this Shen Yuyan has a good relationship with Xu Yang’s wife.”

“Is that so?” Li Guangming said with interest, “Shen Yuyan is a great beauty, and usually, the friends of a beauty are also beautiful. What does Xu Yang’s wife look like?”

Bai Kunyu replied, “Honestly, she’s on par with Shen Yuyan.”

In truth, he was still being considerate of Li Guangming’s feelings; Zhao Yuxin’s beauty surpassed Shen Yuyan’s.

But since Li Guangming was pursuing Shen Yuyan, he naturally couldn’t say that.

Even so, Li Guangming’s eyes lit up, “Really?”

If she was on par with Shen Yuyan, Li Guangming started to entertain some thoughts.

Bai Kunyu said, “Of course it’s true, I have investigated Xu Yang’s information.”

Li Guangming couldn’t help but say, “Such a beautiful woman, marrying a country bumpkin like Xu Yang, is simply a waste of heaven’s gifts.”

Bai Kunyu knew all too well what Li Guangming was thinking and nodded in agreement, “Exactly, a waste of heaven’s gifts. A beauty like her should only be enjoyed by someone like you, Brother Ming.”

The corners of Li Guangming’s mouth curled into a smirk, “Do you have a way for me to meet this Zhao Yuxin?”

After thinking for a moment, Bai Kunyu said, “The ‘Night of Glitter’ is in a few days. Wang Xiaocong will surely attend, and if things go as expected, Xu Yang, as a rising star in the business world, will probably go too. At such a grand evening event, Xu Yang would likely bring his wife. Then, we can see her at the party. If Xu Yang doesn’t bring his wife with him, I will find a chance to arrange a meeting for you. How does that sound?”

Li Guangming responded, “That would be best. I don’t have time to meet with him these days; I should focus on interacting with Shen Yuyan. Moreover, Shen Yuyan will also attend the ‘Night of Glitter.’ I plan to give Shen Yuyan a gift at the event, so there’s no need for you to introduce her then. Since Shen Yuyan is friends with her, I can just get to know her through Shen Yuyan, which is even more perfect. However, you need to confirm this matter. Call Wang Xiaocong to inquire, you say that Wang Xiaocong has a good relationship with Xu Yang. He should know if Xu Yang is going.”@@novelbin@@

“Okay, I’ll call Wang Xiaocong right now.” Bai Kunyu took out his phone and immediately dialed Wang Xiaocong’s number.

Soon, the call was connected.

“Lord Bai, what do you need from me?” Wang Xiaocong asked directly, his tone somewhat cold.

After all, he was brothers with Xu Yang, and Bai Kunyu was Xu Yang’s enemy, which naturally made him an enemy as well.

This was also his way of showing his stance.

With a smile, Bai Kunyu said, “Lord Wang, I wanted to ask you about the ‘Night of Glitter.’ Are you and Xu Yang planning to attend together?”

Wang Xiaocong frowned and asked, “Yes, what about it?”

Bai Kunyu continued to inquire, “Other than the two of you, who else will be there? You’ll both be bringing ladies, right? You’ll bring your internet celebrity girlfriend, and Xu Yang will bring his wife, right?”

Wang Xiaocong frowned and asked, “Why are you asking this?”

Bai Kunyu replied, “Just casually asking.”

Wang Xiaocong said, “We will be bringing them, what about it?”

Bai Kunyu laughed, “Nothing, I won’t bother you anymore, goodbye.”

After hanging up, Bai Kunyu smiled and said, “Brother Ming, I’ve found out for you. Xu Yang will bring his wife to the ‘Night of Glitter.’”

Li Guangming nodded, his gaze flickering, “Then I have to think carefully about what to do at that time.”

…

Putting down his phone, Wang Xiaocong had a puzzled look on his face.

What was Bai Kunyu trying to find out with those questions?

Why should I care if Xu Yang and I bring female companions?

After thinking it over, he dialed Xu Yang’s number, “Xu Yang, Bai Kunyu just called me.”

Xu Yang raised an eyebrow, “Why is he calling you? He’s not unaware of the relationship between you and me.”

Bai Kunyu should still be with Li Guangming right now.

“I’m also puzzled. He asked me two questions…” Wang Xiaocong recounted the situation, “I feel like he’s up to no good, but I can’t figure out what he’s plotting. You’re smarter than me, so I can only tell you and let you think about it. I suspect it’s aimed at you; after all, you have a history, and he’s trying to pry your information from me in a roundabout way.”

Xu Yang was silent for a moment, “I understand. It seems that Bai Kunyu and Li Guangming will also attend the Splendorous Night.”

Wang Xiaocong was startled, “Li Guangming? You mean the heir of the premier Li Family in Beijing?”

As a famous young master and being in Beijing, he naturally knew about Li Guangming, the heir of the Li Family.

Xu Yang said, “Yes, that’s him.”

Wang Xiaocong asked in confusion, “How do you know him?”

“I don’t, but just now…” Xu Yang explained the situation.

“I see.” Wang Xiaocong said, “Bai Kunyu, the bastard, can’t get the better of you, so he turned to Li Guangming. I’ve heard about this guy; he’s very capable, especially since he’s the heir of the Li Family and can call upon the family’s resources at will. You better watch out if he takes action against you.”

Xu Yang said, “I know.”

The two chatted a few more words and then hung up the phone.

Xu Yang summoned Ma Yangrong and asked directly, “Does Li Guangming have any vulnerabilities we can exploit?”

A smile appeared on Ma Yangrong’s face as he handed a USB drive to Xu Yang, “Take a look at the video inside.”

Xu Yang asked doubtfully, “You have a video, why not just send it to my phone? Why go through the trouble of using a USB drive?”

Ma Yangrong chuckled, “General Manager Xu, it’s not that I want to make it complicated, but I’m afraid of being accused of spreading inappropriate content if I send the video directly.”

Hearing this, Xu Yang became more curious about the contents of the video.

He took the USB drive and brought over his laptop.

Soon, a video from the USB was playing on the computer.

“Damn, Li Guangming has such a heavy taste!”

Seeing the content on the USB, Xu Yang was shocked and felt like throwing up.

He really hadn’t expected Li Guangming to have such a hobby.

It was indeed too much for the average person to handle.

Ma Yangrong chuckled, “This Li Guangming has quite a bad reputation; I think this is the most exploitable aspect.”

Xu Yang nodded, “Indeed, this video is enough to ruin his reputation. If exposed, it would probably cost him his heir position to the Li Family.”

The content of the video was so explosive that once exposed, Li Guangming’s reputation would be utterly destroyed.

Even the whole Li Family would be shamed because of it.

The Li Family, as a grand family, certainly values reputation greatly and would never allow such a person to inherit the position of Family Head.

Ma Yangrong agreed, “Certainly, a grand family like the Li Family would never let such a person succeed. With this video, we basically have him by the throat!”

Xu Yang asked, “You’ve made a backup of the video, right?”

Ma Yangrong nodded, “I have. How could I not backup such an important leverage point?”

Xu Yang smiled, “That’s great. Then we are virtually in an invincible position, unless Li Guangming doesn’t want the status of heir to the Li Family.”
