Professor Liu listened and pondered for a moment.

Then he looked at Xu Xing and said sincerely, "Mr. Xu, I am very satisfied with this handkerchief. Let's set the price at 43 million."

Xu Xing waved his hand and said, "Professor Liu, your golden wedding anniversary is a joyous occasion, and I can't be too concerned about it."

Let's go with the lowest price of 38 million; it's a small token of our appreciation for the two professors' golden wedding anniversary.

"That won't do!"

Professor Liu quickly waved his hand, "Mr. Xu, this is a treasure of yours, I can't let you suffer a loss."

"Professor Liu, please listen to me."

Xu Xing smiled and said, "It takes time and effort for you two to help me proofread the studio's agreement and review the accounts."

If we calculate the labor costs at market prices, it adds up to a considerable amount over a year. Let's consider this a mutual favor.

Professor Liu insisted, "Mr. Xu, I appreciate your kindness, but let's keep things separate."

My wife and I will help you with your legal and accounting matters; it's just a small favor and doesn't cost much.

But this handkerchief is a rare item that is priceless and unavailable for purchase. Without connections, you might not even be able to see it, let alone buy it.

I'm already very grateful that you've given me priority in selling to you; how could I let you suffer another loss?

He paused, his tone tinged with pride: "Besides, my wife and I started a company when we were young, and our children are quite successful. Although we're retired now, we're not short of money."

You should sell it to me at the market price, otherwise I'll feel bad about it.

Seeing Professor Liu's firm attitude, Xu Xing no longer declined: "Then... let's do as Professor Liu says."

"good!"

Professor Liu clapped his hands happily, "Then it's settled!"

He took out his phone and called the bank's account manager to arrange a large transfer.

After receiving a text message from the bank confirming that the funds had arrived, Xu Xing carefully placed the handkerchief into a specially made brocade box and handed it to Professor Liu.

"Professor Liu, please keep your things safe."

Professor Liu accepted the brocade box with both hands, handling it as if it were a rare treasure.

He turned to his wife, his eyes slightly red: "Old lady, this is a golden wedding anniversary gift for you. Do you like it?"

The old lady took the brocade box, opened it, and her eyes reddened as she looked inside.

She reached out and gently stroked the phoenix pattern on the handkerchief. "I like it... I like it very much..."

Seeing the two elderly people smiling at each other, Xu Xing felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

He escorted the three of them downstairs and all the way to their car.

Before getting into the car, Professor Liu shook Xu Xing's hand and said solemnly, "Mr. Xu, please call me anytime if you need legal or accounting support. My wife and I will be there whenever you need us."

"Then I'll have to trouble Professor Liu and his wife."

Xu Xing expressed his sincere gratitude.

"No trouble at all."

Professor Liu smiled and said, "It's our honor to be able to help you."

The three got into the car and left. Xu Xing stood at the garage door and watched the Audi disappear around the corner before turning around and going home.

When he got home, he first called Professor Feng.

"Professor Feng, thank you so much for today."

Xu Xing said sincerely, "I've already contacted Professor Liu, and things are going very smoothly."

"That's good."

Professor Feng said with a smile, "Old Liu is an old friend of mine. His character and ability are beyond reproach. You've come to the right person."

"I still have to thank Professor Feng for making the connection."

Xu Xing smiled and said, "I'll treat you to dinner another day when you have time."

"Okay, then I'll be waiting."

Professor Feng laughed heartily.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Xing sent Li Yuting a message: "Yuting, thank you for today. I'll treat you to dinner another day."

Li Yuting replied instantly: "What's our relationship? Why are you thanking me?"

Then he sent another message: "Just save some energy for tonight."

Xu Xing looked at the message and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

He thought for a moment and replied, "Are you free tonight?"

Li Yuting quickly replied, "Go and book the hotel room first, I'll come over later."

"it is good."

Xu Xing agreed and then opened the mobile app to book an executive suite at a five-star hotel near the Chang'an Academy of Fine Arts.

That evening, Li Yuting arrived as promised.

The two spent a pleasant evening in the room.

Although Xu Xing had put in a lot of effort, Li Yuting was already very satisfied.

……

The next morning, Xu Xing was woken up by his cell phone ringing.

He picked up his phone and saw that it was Wang Benquan calling.

"XCMG, did I disturb your rest?"

Wang Benquan's voice was tinged with laughter.

"No, Mr. Wang, is there anything I can help you with?"

"The studio's permits have been approved, and we'll be going to the Industry and Commerce Bureau this afternoon to complete the final registration procedures."

Wang Benquan said, "Bring a trustworthy lawyer, and let's meet at the entrance of the Industry and Commerce Bureau at 2 PM this afternoon."

"Okay, I'll be there on time."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Xing glanced at Li Yuting, who was still fast asleep beside him, and quietly got up to wash up.

He changed his clothes, left a note for Li Yuting, and then left the hotel.

After leaving the hotel, Xu Xing first called Professor Liu.

"Professor Liu, the studio needs to go to the Industry and Commerce Bureau this afternoon to complete the registration procedures. Would it be convenient for you to come along?"

"So convenient!"

Professor Liu readily agreed, "Send me the address, and I'll go there this afternoon."

"I can't trouble Professor Liu to go through all that trouble. Let me come to your house to pick you up."

"Well... that's fine, then I'll leave it to Mr. Xu."

"Professor Liu, you're too kind. You've come all this way to help me, how can you say it's a bother?"

"Haha, then I'll wait for XCMG's call at home."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Xing drove back to Yunxi Terrace.

He had lunch, changed into a formal suit, and then drove his Yangwang U8L to pick up Professor Liu.

Professor Liu wore a dark blue Zhongshan suit today, his hair was neatly combed, and he looked very energetic.

"Professor Liu, thank you for your help today."

Xu Xing said politely.

"No trouble at all."

Professor Liu smiled and said, "It is my honor to witness the establishment of your studio."

The two chatted all the way and soon arrived at the entrance of the Industry and Commerce Bureau.

Wang Benquan was already waiting there, accompanied by a young woman in a business suit, who was carrying a briefcase and was probably his secretary.

Seeing Xu Xing's car stop, Wang Benquan quickly walked over.

"XCMG!"

He greeted him warmly, then his gaze fell on Professor Liu, and he paused for a moment.

"Professor Liu?"

Wang Benquan looked surprised. "What brings you here?"

Professor Liu said with a smile, "Xiao Wang, it's been a long time!"

Wang Benquan quickly stepped forward and respectfully shook hands with Professor Liu: "Professor Liu, what brings you here...?"

"I am the lawyer hired by Mr. Xu."

Professor Liu explained, "I am fully responsible for the legal matters of his studio."

After listening, Wang Benquan looked at Xu Xing with even more admiration.

Professor Liu Jianguo is a leading figure in the field of commercial law in Chang'an; ordinary people simply cannot get him to come.

Xu Xing was able to invite him, which shows he has a lot of influence.

"XCMG, you're amazing!"

Wang Benquan exclaimed sincerely, "We were even able to get Professor Liu to come."

"Mr. Wang, you flatter me. It is Professor Liu who is too kind."

Xu Xing smiled modestly.
