Chapter 217 Little Queen Arrives
"What are we doing at the Su Corporation? Isn't the endorsement already signed with the Su Family?" Yu Dan asked, puzzled.
Wei Ziyi said outright, "My Brother Ye Fan is waiting for me at the Su Corporation, I can't let him be anxious!"
"What? It's really him?"
Hearing Wei Ziyi's response, Yu Dan was greatly surprised - obviously she had not expected Ye Fan to be the one Wei Ziyi had been searching for all these years.
Wei Ziyi nodded and said, "Yes! Just now, Brother Ye Fan was ruthlessly turned away by them, he must be feeling very heartbroken and lost right now. Let's hurry over, I don't want Brother Ye Fan to feel heartbroken or lost for even a moment!"
"Alright, let's head to the Su Corporation now!" Yu Dan nodded solemnly.
She and Wei Ziyi were as close as sisters, she knew all too well how important Ye Fan was to Wei Ziyi.
...
"Young man, the cab fare is twenty!"
By this time, Ye Fan had arrived at the Su Corporation's entrance in a taxi.
"Here you go, exactly twenty!" Ye Fan took out a twenty-dollar bill and handed it to the taxi driver.
After paying the fare, Ye Fan got out of the taxi and made his way to the Su Corporation.
No sooner had Ye Fan returned than he saw a crowd in the lobby casting envious glances at Su Tianhao.
"Brother Tianhao truly is a leading figure of our younger generation in the Su Family. I didn't expect Brother Tianhao to secure the Little Queen's endorsement for the Su Family so quickly!"
"That's not the important part; the key is that Brother Tianhao secured the Little Queen's endorsement for our Su Family for one year at a price of eight million. You have to realize, the Little Queen's endorsement fees start at eighty million a year, and Brother Tianhao secured it for eight million, which is incredible. The Little Queen really gave Brother Tianhao a lot of face!"
"Brother Tianhao, you're really amazing! We were still thinking about trying our luck, but now that Brother Tianhao has made his move, we definitely have no chance at becoming the next head of the Su Family!"
At that moment, Huang Zicheng had already handed the endorsement contract to Su Tianhao, and the whole Su Family was in an uproar, even the group of Su Family Elders were so shocked they didn't know what to say.
Who is Wei Ziyi? She's the budding Little Queen of the domestic music scene, currently the most influential person in the country.
Her endorsement fee has never been lower than eighty million, who would have thought that Su Tianhao could secure it for just eight million.
In the country at present, even a second-tier celebrity would probably have an annual endorsement fee of at least eight million. Wei Ziyi signed a one-year endorsement deal with Su Tianhao at the price of a second-tier star.
How is anybody supposed to compete with that? It's ridiculous!
At first, a group of Su Family Elders were eager to vie for the position of next head of the Su Family, but now, the next head of the Su Family was undoubtedly going to be Su Tianhao.
Amidst everyone's envy, Su Tianhao's vanity was greatly fulfilled: "Haha, it's mainly because I have good character. You have no idea, the Little Queen's eyes lit up when she saw me; she almost wanted to marry me on the spot, but I declined politely. She even said she didn't want any endorsement fee. I said that wouldn't do! Just for the gesture, I gave her eight million!"
"Before she left, the Little Queen was reluctant to part with me, hinting that she wanted me to stay and spend the night with her! As you all know, there aren't many clean people in the entertainment industry, I find it dirty, so I just left!"
With Huang Zicheng's help, Su Tianhao secured a years' worth of endorsement for eight million, and amidst everyone's admiration, he unabashedly bragged in front of them all.
"Wow, Brother Tianhao is really a role model for our generation, to think even the Little Queen has fallen for Brother Tianhao!"
"Yeah, yeah, Brother Tianhao is too awesome!"
Hearing the tall tales Su Tianhao was spinning, the younger generation of the Su Family all looked up to him admiringly.
"That's utterly shameless!"
Walking into the hall, Ye Fan's lips twitched viciously at the sight of Su Tianhao's arrogant demeanor.
Seeing Ye Fan return, Su Tianhao sneered, "Oh! Isn't this Ye Fan? Didn't you just say you would have the Little Queen endorse the Su Family for life without any compensation? How come you've returned empty-handed?"
"Don't rush! Just wait for that girl Wei Ziyi to come knocking!" Ye Fan confidently said.
He had left his personal token behind, and Ye Fan was absolutely certain that once Wei Ziyi saw it, she would rush to the Su Corporation without delay.
Upon hearing this, Su Tianhao mocked, "If you can't deliver, just admit it. You even dare to boast that the Little Queen will come seeking you out at the company. Even if the Little Queen does come, it's surely for me. You have no idea, she fell for me at first sight and nearly threw herself at me to have my children! Hahahaha!"
"You really dare boast!"
At those words, Ye Fan's face darkened, "Don't think I'm unaware of the plots and schemes that Huang Zicheng cooked up for you. I just went to the Earl Hotel and happened to run into Huang Zicheng. He already told me about your collusion and that the endorsement contract was secured through Huang Zicheng's connections for you!"
"Wei Ziyi would fancy you and have your child? Take a look at that huge face of yours, all greasy, it makes one want to vomit just looking at it. Can't you make your bluffs a bit more believable?"
In Ye Fan's heart, Wei Ziyi had a tragic fate, and he saw her as his own sister. Su Tianhao dared to use Wei Ziyi as a laughingstock, and Ye Fan fired back publicly.
"So, you knew it all along!" Su Tianhao's expression suddenly darkened.
Just a moment ago, he had planned to flaunt in front of Ye Fan, never expecting that Ye Fan would encounter Huang Zicheng at the Earl Hotel.
Hearing the commotion in the hall, Su Ruoxue also walked out of her office.
Seeing Ye Fan return, she said with anticipation, "Ye Fan, how did it go? Did you meet the Little Queen?"
"Not just yet!"
Ye Fan answered truthfully and then smiled, "If nothing unexpected happens, that girl will show up in person shortly!"
"Really? The Little Queen will come to the Su Corporation?" Su Ruoxue said in surprise.
Ye Fan said with full confidence, "Yes!"
"Tsk! And you dare say I'm bluffing. Ye Fan, I think the real blowhard here is you, isn't it? You, attracting the Little Queen here? What a daydream!" Su Tianhao mocked from the side.
He was very clear that if it wasn't for Huang Zicheng's help, let alone securing the endorsement for eight million, he probably wouldn't even have gotten a glimpse of the Little Queen, Wei Ziyi.
Su Yue also walked out and approached, asking, "Big brother, what's going on?"
"Yue'er, you have no idea, just now Ye Fan actually said the Little Queen would come to the Su Family looking for him, it's ridiculous!" Su Tianhao laughed boisterously.
Hearing this, Su Yue scoffed, "Ye Fan, didn't you say you would get the Little Queen to provide a lifetime of free endorsements for the Su Family? Now you haven't secured the lifetime endorsement, yet you still claim the Little Queen will come looking for you later? It seems to me you're really planning to blow up the sky-high boasting!"
"I agree with that. The Little Queen has such a prestigious status, and you, Ye Fan, what are you? Why would she come to the Su Corporation looking for you?"
"The Little Queen is so esteemed that even some national business tycoons have to show her respect. You are nothing, Ye Fan. She will come looking for you? You must be delusional!"
Many of the Su Family's younger generation began to openly criticize Ye Fan, as if he was just deceiving himself to save face.
"So, you all think I'm just blowing smoke?" Ye Fan said with a hint of a cunning smile.
Looking down on Ye Fan, Su Tianhao disdainfully said, "Aren't you bluffing?"
Whoosh—Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Just as the Su Family members were showing disdain for Ye Fan, a Rolls-Royce Cullinan sped to a stop in front of the Su Corporation, and from the passenger side quickly stepped down the graceful figure of the Little Queen, Wei Ziyi.
