After five bigwigs in Beijing's elite circle fell into their trap, I fled.

Chapter 47 Return
The comments section seemed to be choked, remaining silent for a full minute!

Then, the hundreds of millions of viewers in front of the screen snapped out of their daze and instantly started screaming wildly!
【Isn't this the husband of my dreams? No! I wouldn't even dream of having a husband like this!】

I need all his information within one minute!

[Please, puppet streamer, have some decency! What kind of content are you streaming every day?! Are you deliberately trying to make me completely addicted?!]

[I need to take a nitroglycerin pill! This new guy is killing me! He killed my whole family! Even my grandma is asking me about him...]

[My god, it's this big shot... I saw him once from afar at last year's high-profile business banquet. He was surrounded by a group of socialites from Beijing, and I only managed to peek through the crowd. I was already blown away, but seeing him up close is even more breathtaking!]

[Who is it?! Don't just say half of what you mean! Who is he?! I don't care, I'm going to marry him, even if it means going bankrupt as a dowry!]

……

Li Yubai also ignored the comments section. His expression was aloof as he greeted everyone:

"I am Li Yubai."

The chat went silent again!
Then finally someone couldn't resist speaking up:
[Li Yubai? The richest man in the capital, Li Yubai? The most handsome man in the capital? My god, I thought I'd never see him alive except for knowing that name!]

[His demeanor, his bearing, his bone structure, his looks—he's undoubtedly the most handsome man in the capital!]

[A thousand words brewed in my mind, but the first one that came out was "Holy crap!" Is this the legendary billionaire dad?]

[No wonder the streamer dared to sell Li Yubai's bathrobe...it turns out it was officially authorized by the star! I regret ever suspecting it was fake; I missed the chance to get close to my idol!]

[Just what kind of deity is this puppet?! Even two heartthrobs, Yan Yu and Li Yubai, are giving him their thumbs up!]

Hello, Dad! Greetings, Dad!

……

Li Yubai cut straight to the point: "About my streamer..."

Yan Yu interrupted, "They're from my family too."

Upon hearing this, countless people in front of the screen let out a squeal of delight and their eyes lit up with gossip! Even Gao Jing and Jiang Liufeng couldn't help but look at the two people in front of the screen with curious eyes.

Li Yubai chuckled lightly, not angry at all. Instead, he readily agreed: "Regarding whether the wine sold by our anchor is fake, in addition to the video provided by Yan Yu, I will directly connect with Mr. Weiss, the king of red wines from F country, and he will clear our anchor's name online!"

The cross-border connection was established, and on the other end, the renowned King of French Wines, Weiss, appeared in the upper right corner of the screen.

The two were clearly acquainted.

Li Yubai briefly explained the situation, and Weiss immediately spoke angrily in broken Chinese:
"That wine was a gift I gave to an important friend, and that friend called me an hour ago to confirm that it was indeed given to Puppet, a livestreamer under Mr. Li Yubai's management. I will later send my personal wine appraiser to China to conduct a second appraisal of those bottles of wine with Mr. Li Yubai's appraisal team, and I will pursue legal action against those who spread rumors after the appraisal is completed."

Li Yubai hung up the call and faced the live stream again: "From today onwards, in addition to the dedicated appraisal team in the live stream, the Li family will also assign a legal team to be stationed in the live stream to pursue the legal responsibilities of those who spread rumors and cause trouble."

Yan Yu also said softly, "Some of the secondhand items in my streamer's possession come from me. And they all have my autograph. You can verify their authenticity yourself. But people's words can be a fearsome thing, so please be careful and don't become the spokesperson for online storms."

The live stream has finally been shut down.

Gao Jing took the puppet mask and tentatively looked at Li Yubai: "How about we book a banquet table..."

"No need," Yan Yu refused. "I don't like dining with people I don't know well."

The agent, who had been standing silently by, cleared his throat and said, "Yan Yu, the private jet is ready. Let's depart now. We can still make it to the next event."

"No rush." ​​Yan Yu paused, then turned to ask Li Yubai, "Where is she?"

Li Yubai naturally knew who he was asking about. He said succinctly, "Go back to attend a funeral, and come back tomorrow."

“Then I’ll wait for her.” Yan Yu nodded and told her agent, “Make sure you have time tomorrow, and we’ll arrange your return trip the day after tomorrow.”

The agent looked distressed: "This... the schedules for the next two days are very important."

"The person I'm waiting for is more important than the announcement." Yan Yu stood up, not wanting to stay any longer. "Let's go to the hotel."

Li Yubai watched his retreating figure and called out, "She's still accompanied by that cat."

Yan Yu was clearly taken aback for a moment. Then he sighed softly, "I've already met you, so I'm not afraid of meeting him too."

They quickly got into the van with the agent and drove off.

In the car, Yan Yu suddenly asked her agent, "If I, Li Yubai, and the FY heir were to face off at the same time, what would our chances of winning be?"

The agent wiped his face, casually looked out the window, and changed the subject: "Jiangcheng is small, but the scenery is quite nice."

Yan Yu chuckled softly, the young man wearing all his worries on his face: "Okay, I understand."

Inside the villa, Li Yubai looked at Jiang Liufeng and asked, "Want to have a casual meal together?"

Jiang Liufeng hesitated for a moment.

Li Yubai then instructed Gao Jing: "Arrange for someone to send Miss Guan back."

Then he said to Jiang Liufeng, "The Buddha Jumps Over the Wall at Jiangcheng Hotel is pretty good, would you like to try some?"

……

Xinghua Village. Night has fallen.

Assistant Yang, however, remained at the mourning hall and refused to suggest spending the night elsewhere.

Those playing cards continued playing cards, and those chatting continued chatting. Assistant Yang drank sip after sip of goji berry tea, suddenly realizing that his energy was no match for the group of elderly people in the village. He stayed up until the wee hours of the morning before finally falling into a deep sleep.

He slept until dawn, and when he opened his eyes, the funeral was already over. Jiang Shu had a backpack slung over her shoulder: "Let's go, we can go back now."

Assistant Yang jolted awake and scrambled up from the straw mat in the mourning hall, immediately heading to the car.

The unassuming luxury car was surrounded by villagers, who pointed and gestured at it, looking like they had never seen anything like it before.

Assistant Yang greeted everyone warmly and then said many polite farewells. It wasn't until the car left Xinghua Village and entered Quanwen Town, when the navigation system resumed operation and the phone suddenly had a full signal, that it felt like we had truly returned to the bustling world.

He breathed a long sigh of relief and asked Jiang Shu, "Go straight back to Jiangcheng?"

"Okay." Jiang Shu turned on her phone and received text messages from Li Yubai and Yan Yu: "A friend is waiting for me."

Assistant Yang drove incredibly fast: "What kind of friend?"

Jiang Shu thought for a moment: "The one you mentioned last night, that socially awkward brat."

Assistant Yang: "..."

The cat in Jiang Shu's arms stirred restlessly.

Jiang Shu leaned closer to the cat's ears: "I'll lift the ban when we get back. It's time for the three of you to have a proper meeting..."
