After Xin Shengtian and Brother Three led the members of the Phantom Banner away, Xin Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief. Having elders around was uncomfortable, especially with such a formal special welcome ceremony, as if he were some kind of national hero. Being a great hero felt nice, but with that righteous identity, how could he shamelessly flirt in front of them? Wouldn't that tarnish his image as a new century handsome hero? Fortunately, they left quickly, so he no longer had to pretend to be so serious and righteous. Oh? By the way, where is my dear President Shu Xiaorui? I haven't seen you in months; I almost miss you to death! For the sake of my once-a-day great life goal, it's time for me to take action and charge through the land!
Just as he was looking for Shu Rui, he saw her chatting happily with Lu Hanmeng, Lijie, and Roxy. He couldn't tell what these women were discussing, but they occasionally burst into fits of silver bell-like laughter. Xin Yi wickedly thought: They can't be discussing how to arrange their sizes, can they? If that's the case, then my great life goal is just around the corner...
"Look at that lewd expression on your face! Don't think you can fool around just because my sister isn't here. If you dare to disrespect her, I'll make sure you find your teeth scattered all over the ground!" The newcomer was Shen Liwei, dressed in military uniform, scolding him fiercely while wearing a smile.
"You choose the time and place; let's see who ends up looking for their teeth!" Xin Yi replied with a grin. This brother-in-law had no other hobbies than picking fights. It seemed he would need to find him a wife who could beat him up like a giant bug; only then would he change his habit of seeking out fights.
Shen Liwei walked over and pulled Xin Yi into a bear hug, patting his back hard a few times. He excitedly whispered in Xin Yi's ear, "Really? Then let's find a spacious place to practice later. I've come up with a brand new leg technique during this time; you'll get to experience it soon! The inspiration for this technique came from a movie—I'm such a genius..."
"Wait," Xin Yi interrupted Shen Liwei. "Inspired by a movie? It wouldn't happen to be Zhou Xingxing's famous Deadly Scissors Kick again, would it?"
"Huh? No way! How did you know?" Shen Liwei released Xin Yi and looked at him in surprise.
"Seriously? Big brother," Xin Yi felt an urge to cry. "You also like doing impersonations? What's so great about Zhou Xingxing? Why not imitate someone better than him? Like me?"
"Imitate you?" Now it was Shen Liwei's turn to feel like crying. "But what do you have that's worth imitating? Zhou Xingxing is at least an idol type with real talent; what about you?"
"Actually," Xin Yi said shyly while fixing his hair, "I think I belong to the idol type too, even though my skills are pretty good."
"You? Idol type?" Shen Liwei circled around Xin Yi as if he were an alien and shook his head. "Forget it; if I had to categorize you into something, I'd say you're more of a talent type; that would be more respectful to the audience."
Xin Yi felt murderous—really, why wasn't he considered an idol type?! Talent type? You're the talent type! Your whole family is talent type—oh no, Shen Shanshan isn't because she will eventually be part of my family.
The welcome banquet was arranged by Huang Mang at the Wangfu Grand Hotel, the most luxurious hotel in Longchuan, which is now part of the Three Tiger Group. The entire lobby, restaurant, and private rooms of the hotel were filled with tables, totaling over three hundred. Among these, more than two hundred tables were set up for a buffet-style meal; any employee of the Three Tiger Group could come in with their work ID and eat and drink freely until they were satisfied. After finishing, they could leave, and the next group would continue. If anyone wanted to eat more, they could do so as food and drinks were continuously replenished. The remaining one hundred tables were reserved for Xin Yi, senior executives of the Three Tiger Group, and members of the Beng Hu Camp. Although there was no distinction among brothers, leaders still needed to discuss matters.
The Three Tiger Group is now one of the top conglomerates in Binhai, involved in real estate, entertainment, pharmaceuticals, IT, mining, and more. The general manager of the investment company, Wang Hao, was currently busy planning for an IPO. Previously, Shu Junxing's Junxing Group was the flagship enterprise in Binhai, but that honor has now shifted to the Three Tiger Group. The rise of the Three Tiger Group was through acquisitions; any industry controlled by gangs would be taken over without hesitation. Those who did not comply would find no place to stay in Binhai.
During the banquet, Xin Yi learned about the operational status of the Three Tiger Group and Benhu Security Company. The Three Tiger Group had been thriving in recent months, rapidly expanding its asset scale. Even some provincial policies were beginning to favor them; after all, they were the largest taxpayer in Binhai Province—without some preferential treatment, how would these public servants survive? In overseas markets, Huang Mang had personally visited Lusang Nation to discuss cooperation with Kobe Bryant from the Black K Party. Despite knowing that the Three Tiger Group had taken over their drug business with Taiwan Li Min Group, Kobe Bryant agreed to become a distributor for them and even provided ships for transporting drugs and goods. The Three Tiger Group only needed to take a cut of the profits, which were substantial.
Xin Yi was somewhat surprised by this arrangement. Kobe Bryant was a smart man; he knew that Xin Yi was the true boss behind the scenes of the Three Tiger Group. Yet he still agreed to cooperate so readily. This could be due to his need to maintain a foothold in the global drug distribution market or perhaps other reasons. Analyzing Kobe Bryant's character alone suggested he would not easily submit to being controlled by others. Previously, imports of food, daily necessities, arms and ammunition from Taiwan were managed by enterprises controlled by the Black K Party; now they had been seized by the Three Tiger Group using his original sales and procurement channels while profiting significantly in between. Xin Yi believed that Kobe Bryant would not be content with this situation but wondered how he could turn things around. He had not yet figured it out but understood that the Black K Party was like a hidden crocodile nearby—if one wasn't careful, it could swallow them whole without leaving a trace.
Benhu Security Company had also gained a reputation for itself; it not only handled security for internal affairs of both the Three Tiger Group and Junxing Group but had also begun taking on security contracts from major banks, investment companies, funds, futures firms, securities firms, consortiums, and large corporations. Now the entire Beng Hu Camp was not only self-sufficient but also starting to turn a profit. Xin Yi admired Zhong Kai for this; while he might not be as skilled as Qin Dali in leading troops and training them, when it came to managing a company, Qin Dali couldn't compare.
Many brothers came over during the banquet to toast Xin Yi; in their eyes, he was like an idol. Just being able to share a drink with him excited many people so much that they might lose sleep for days. Moreover, many young female employees from the Three Tiger Group looked at Xin Yi with fiery eyes when offering him drinks—almost as if they could roast this freshly minted national hero alive. Many female employees boldly ignored the murderous glares from several beautiful women at their table and openly confessed their feelings to their prince charming.
"Mr. Xin, I love you!"
"Third-in-Command, I want you!"
"Xin Yi, can I be your second wife? If not two wives then three or four are fine; I just want to be with you!"
"I don't want anything else; just once is enough—just leave me a child!"
At times like this, Xin Yi feels a sense of guilt. What have I done to deserve so many people idolizing me and even offering themselves to me? Oh my, why do you give me so much happiness? Don’t you know that humans can become greedy? Once greed is ignited, I will end up in hell!
Look at these poor children; how can I bear to refuse their earnest requests? If I turn them down, how can I live with myself? But since you have arranged for so many girls to confess their feelings, why also have my several fiancées sitting nearby? With their cold, murderous gazes, how can I dare to compassionately help everyone? Sigh, let it be!
The welcome banquet was spent in this mix of joy and trepidation, just like someone once said: experiencing pain while feeling joy.
After the banquet, everyone tactfully left first. After all, Third-in-Command is surrounded by beautiful women; none of you could possibly stay and sleep with Third-in-Command. Staying would only tarnish the scenery. It’s better for everyone to go home and cuddle with their own Yellow-Faced Woman or beer-bellied man. In the end, only Lijie, Shu Rui, and Roxy remained with Xin Yi. At this moment, Xin Yi felt a bit troubled. Shu Rui had a place to stay, but Lijie and Roxy had nowhere to go. Roxy used to live at Shen Shanshan's house, but now that Shen Shanshan is abroad, it wouldn’t make sense to send Roxy back to the Shen Family. Lijie used to live with Xin Yi at the Farm, and of course she could return there again. But what about Roxy? Should she also be brought back to the Farm? Three people sharing a big bed?
Hehe, that could work. Xin Yi suddenly felt a bit shy; this was something he had never tried before. He didn’t know if it would be an extraordinary experience—one being an ice-cold woman and the other a fiery one. Wow! It’s like ice and fire!
