Chapter 486: He Won’t Ask Us for Help!

The two exchanged a smile and stopped discussing the matter further.

After opening the items that Yu Guotu had brought, the two began raising their cups, eating and talking.

Past memories flooded in waves, and the old and new city leaders couldn’t help but feel emotional.

Once, he had been his role model.

Now, he was his pride.

During their conversation, their hearts grew even closer.

As they continued talking, they found themselves discussing Shen Fei.

Putting down his glass, Yu Guotu sighed deeply and said,

“Old sir, speaking of Shen Fei, I suddenly remembered something! This kid has recently become famous because of the issue with Tencent Company! I looked into the matter briefly, and it seems Tencent Company really plagiarized the product under his name. Shen Fei even used the media to call out Tencent, but it seems it hasn’t had much effect… Until now, he hasn’t filed a lawsuit against Tencent Company. No one knows what this kid is really trying to do! Has he come to you about this?”

As soon as Yu Guotu finished speaking, Jiang Anbang shook his head.

“No, he hasn’t! I’ve also learned a bit about the situation, but if Shen Fei doesn’t mention it, I’m not going to pry into it. What I care more about is how he’s planning to deal with it! If he’s capable, and he manages to bring Tencent down from its position as the king of the game, then Shen Fei will be someone to watch nationwide!”

Jiang Anbang gave a thumbs-up and continued,

“Though he hasn’t dived into capital yet, there will definitely be a place for him in it!”

“I agree with that! Although Shen Fei hasn’t made a move yet, but old sir, what if Shen Fei comes to you for help? How will you handle it?” Yu Guotu asked.

“How will I handle it? Of course, I’ll do everything I can to help Shen Fei! But his opponent is Tencent Company, and I’m not sure I can do much to help! But…” Jiang Anbang’s voice grew serious.

“But what?” Yu Guotu quickly asked.

“But I know Shen Fei wouldn’t come to me for help. If he really wanted my help, he would have come to me as soon as it started!” Jiang Anbang said heavily.

“Old sir, don’t laugh at me! I’m afraid that if this kid really asks for my help, I might feel a huge amount of pressure! It’s not that I don’t want to help, it’s just that I don’t have the strength to help him!” Yu Guotu said with a bitter smile.

“Tsk… So here you are, bringing both meat and wine, trying to avoid Shen Fei asking for your help? If he does need help, he’ll definitely talk to me first. So, are you trying to get me to stop him?” Jiang Anbang furrowed his brow.

Having his thoughts seen through, Yu Guotu didn’t feel embarrassed. He just smiled.

“Old sir, look at what you’re saying. I’m bringing you this wine and meat just to satisfy your cravings! As for anything else, that’s secondary!”

“Cut it out. Don’t think you can act all impressive outside, you’re still the same Yu I first met! With what I know about you, how could I not know your character?” Jiang Anbang said dismissively.

Before Yu Guotu could speak, Jiang Anbang continued,

“You don’t need to worry. I don’t think Shen Fei has any such thoughts! Let’s be realistic—if he did, when he asks me, I’ll definitely stop him. Not because of this meal, but because I don’t want him to be in a tough spot! But, speaking of which, you did say that if he could provide a satisfactory answer within a year, you would allocate land for him in the future commercial zone! You need to remember that!”

“Ah! Old sir, don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten a thing!” Yu Guotu’s face sank, and he said with emotion,

“That one-year deadline may seem generous, but for Shen Fei, time is very tight. But this kid really impresses me! In just half a year, he’s already into real estate, technology, games, film and television… Just seeing that, I have to get him that land!”

“Mm, as long as you know. Now, let’s not talk about other things, but in the future, Shen Fei will definitely be the rising star globally! You have to make sure to bind him closely with our city and not let anyone else take him away!” Jiang Anbang said.

“Alright, old sir, if you don’t say it, we both know what needs to be done!” Yu Guotu smiled.

“Now I can rest easy!”

…

Yunhe Villa.

Shen Fei never imagined that the conversation between Yu Guotu and Jiang Anbang in the Jiang family mansion was about him.

Since returning from the Huaxi Yue Hall, Shen Fei had deliberately chosen to forget about what happened at the hotel.

In the living room, Shen Jiayue was watching cartoons, while Han Xinyan was sitting with a laptop, focused on something. Both the big and the small were waiting for his return.

Seeing this, Shen Fei smiled gently.

After washing his hands, Shen Fei returned to the living room and found Han Xinyan staring anxiously at the Yuxin official website.

On the screen was the countdown for the pre-sale of the YX sunscreen.

“Are you really that nervous? Although our sunscreen received some negative opinions when it first came out, that won’t stop it from being snatched up once it hits the shelves!” Shen Fei said with a bit of amusement.

“I understand that, but how can I not be nervous? This is the launch day for our new sunscreen! The public opinion was really harsh at first. It’s hard for me to stay calm!” Han Xinyan replied helplessly.

“Since you understand, then trust in the power of our sunscreen! These three thousand bottles are nothing, even with bad public opinion, it won’t stop them from selling out!” Shen Fei reassured her.

“I get it, but this is the first launch! If the data isn’t good, that would mean no guarantee for the reputation!” Han Xinyan said with concern. “If on the first day, only a few people buy the three thousand bottles, that’s definitely not good for our sales!”

“You know what, your thinking is…” Shen Fei began, but was immediately interrupted by Han Xinyan.

“I know, I know, my thinking is wrong. I do believe in our sunscreen’s effectiveness. Eventually, word-of-mouth and sales will improve, but as a business owner, who doesn’t want their product to explode in popularity as soon as it’s released?” Han Xinyan explained.

“Our sunscreen is priced twice as much as the scar removal cream. After deducting costs, we’ll make seven hundred per bottle! With three thousand bottles sold a day, our profit will be two million! Can you blame me for being nervous?”

“…”

After hearing Han Xinyan’s concerns, Shen Fei couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time.

With the scar cream supporting it, even if the sunscreen’s reputation takes time to build, it won’t matter.

It’ll improve sooner or later, so why rush it today?

But when he thought of what Han Xinyan had gone through for him, Shen Fei felt some relief.

—————- END —————-

Chapter 487: Thirty Seconds?

Unlike the scar-removal cream, which partnered with Jiang Tiancheng’s Chengyou Technology to promote the sunscreen through live streaming, this time, the launch of the YX sunscreen was only available on the Yuezhen official website, Taobao, and Jingdong, three major online sales platforms.

There were 2,000 bottles available on the official website, and 500 bottles each on the other two platforms.

In the days leading up to the release, there had been intense online discussions about the YX sunscreen. Netizens were eager to see how the product would fare.

The sunscreen was priced at 750, which made both the product and Shen Fei the target of mockery. Most people were skeptical and didn’t think the sunscreen would sell out.

If the sunscreen didn’t sell well, it would not only be a huge embarrassment for Xinyue Group but also for Shen Fei, who would become the laughingstock of the entire industry and even the country.

However, if the sunscreen sold out instantly, then the Yuezhen series under Xinyue Group would become a representative of high-end brands.

After all, with this price and the media frenzy, no international brand would dare to face such criticism, let alone endure it.

With the public’s speculation and the swelling of the online controversy, the clock struck 9:30 PM.

The YX sunscreen sales officially began.

At the same time, all three sales channels went live with their shopping links.

The moment the clock hit the right time, Han Xinyan immediately focused, her eyes glued to the sales numbers on the page.

However, after waiting for a while and refreshing the page again, she found that it no longer updated.

“Ah…”

Unwilling to give up, she switched her attention to the Taobao and Jingdong websites, but the page was also frozen, leaving only a blank screen.

Han Xinyan furrowed her brows and kept pressing the refresh button, switching between the three sales channels.

No matter how she refreshed, the pages remained stuck.

“What’s going on?” Han Xinyan was utterly shocked.

Seeing this, Shen Fei smiled knowingly and said, “This is easy to understand! The sales are so hot that the system can’t handle it and is crashing.”

“How could this be? Even though many people want to see us fail, they wouldn’t be sitting there waiting at this exact time, right? Could there be some insider information?” Han Xinyan hesitated.

“What are you talking about? This isn’t a joke. Do you not have faith in Lao Tang or in our product? With the effectiveness of the scar-removal cream, how could there be no competitors? Besides, our new product’s marketing strategy is the same as the scar-removal cream—if it doesn’t work, we’ll refund. There will always be people willing to try it. So you don’t have to worry about the sales at all!” Shen Fei reassured her.

“I trust Lao Tang and I believe in the sunscreen’s effectiveness, but we don’t know what consumers think. Just the price of 750—no matter how good the refund policy is, not many people would buy it!” Han Xinyan stated directly.

However, Shen Fei shook his head and said confidently, “That’s not it. Or rather, you don’t understand the psychology of female consumers! With the foundation laid by the scar-removal cream’s effectiveness, our sunscreen—don’t even mention 750—if it were 1500, there would still be a lot of people buying it!”

Han Xinyan paused and said nothing more.

She absentmindedly refreshed the pages on the three sales channels again, but when it refreshed, the website displayed just three words: “Out of stock!”

But it had only been two minutes.

“Already sold out? Did we sell out that quickly?” Han Xinyan exclaimed in disbelief.

Since the preview of the YX sunscreen was released, the online discussions had been full of mockery and ridicule. Even those who tried to defend the Yuezhen series and the new sunscreen were quickly shut down.

Given the public sentiment, many people were just waiting for the Yuezhen series to fail. But to think that in just two minutes, all 3,000 bottles had been sold out?

It was simply unbelievable!

Gasping in surprise, Han Xinyan pulled out her phone, intending to call the person in charge of Yuezhen’s sales.

Before she could make the call, her phone rang.

It was the sales manager.

“Director Han!” The person on the other end was excited.

“Yes, Minister Yang, do you have an update on the sunscreen sales?” Han Xinyan composed herself and asked calmly.

“Director Han, this is unbelievable! In just thirty seconds, all 3,000 bottles of sunscreen were sold out across the three channels!” Minister Yang said, almost shouting with excitement.

“What did you say? Thirty seconds???” Han Xinyan was stunned.

“Yes, Director Han, and they were all paid for immediately! This is simply unbelievable. When we released the preview of the sunscreen, many people ridiculed it. I was very worried, but now, within thirty seconds, everything is gone…”

Minister Yang paused for a moment before continuing seriously, “Director Han, I have to tell you, within thirty seconds, all 3,000 bottles sold out. No domestic or international brand could ever accomplish such a feat! Moreover, our sunscreen was priced relatively high, but even so, we did it!”

“Also, Director Han, the data shows that in just these few minutes, the number of views across the three channels for the sunscreen reached millions! Some came to mock us, others to watch the drama, but our sunscreen still sold out! If we had more stock, say 10,000 bottles, I have no doubt those would have sold out too!”

Han Xinyan was completely stunned by Minister Yang’s report.

In just a few minutes, the views had reached millions?

Only the Yuezhen series could have achieved such a record!

It seemed that she had been overly cautious in this regard.

For a moment, Han Xinyan felt mixed emotions.

Although Shen Fei had assured her that the sales of the sunscreen wouldn’t be a problem, seeing this situation and hearing the good news firsthand still left her in shock.

A long time passed.

But Han Xinyan still couldn’t recover from the shock.

“Shen… Shen Fei, how did you know this would happen? Thirty seconds—just thirty seconds—and all 3,000 bottles of sunscreen were sold out! Also, within minutes of starting sales, the views across our three channels reached millions!” Han Xinyan whispered, looking at Shen Fei’s calm smile.

—————- END —————-

Chapter 488: A Revolutionary Product!

Seeing the look of disbelief on Han Xinyan’s face and hearing her recount the situation, Shen Fei remained calm and composed.

He patted Han Xinyan’s shoulder lightly and laughed, “Wasn’t this expected? You’re the one who was overly worried! You see, you misjudged our influence!”

“I don’t get it. Has our Yuezhen series really become this highly regarded by consumers? It’s selling for 750! Even top-tier brands wouldn’t dare to price it this high, and there’s no way they would sell out 3,000 bottles in just thirty seconds right after launch…”

Even though the facts were clear, Han Xinyan still expressed doubt.

“With the success of the scar-removal cream as a foundation, if we couldn’t generate this kind of demand, it would just mean our marketing strength wasn’t enough! But, honestly, this is much bigger than I expected! Besides, our money-back guarantee, which is even more trustworthy than the usual seven-day return policy, makes all the difference. Although the sunscreen’s effects are slow to show, consumers are still willing to buy it—that’s the key to its success!” Shen Fei smiled, his tone playful.

However, Han Xinyan wasn’t listening to Shen Fei anymore. She was already imagining the scene of YX sunscreen flying off the shelves after its release.

“Then, if we combine our YX sunscreen’s actual effects with what you’re saying, the consumers will definitely buy it! Once the sunscreen gets positive reviews, the sales will definitely skyrocket. It might even surpass the scar-removal cream!”

Han Xinyan’s mood was clearly excited.

After all, the profit margins from the sunscreen were much higher than those of the scar-removal cream.

Although the scar-removal cream had sold more than 20,000 bottles across major sales channels, it was still a hot product, with many people struggling to get their hands on it. But the price of the cream was only about 400!

In terms of profit, the sunscreen far outstripped it.

If the sunscreen’s sales could reach similar numbers, they would make much more money!

“You see? This is just the beginning!” Shen Fei laughed helplessly at Han Xinyan’s money-driven expression. After a pause, he continued, “But there’s one thing—the effects of the scar-removal cream and the sunscreen are different, so they can’t really be compared! Although the scar-removal cream is cheap and everyone has a need for it, people can still afford it with a little sacrifice. But the sunscreen’s price makes it daunting for many people, and since its effect is just for sun protection, the consumer base is smaller… So, no matter what, these two products are fundamentally different, and in that sense, the sunscreen can never match the scar-removal cream!”

At this point, Shen Fei thought about the Yuezhen series from his previous life. He smiled with certainty and said, “That’s right, in the future, even if Lao Tang develops a product with amazing effects, it still won’t surpass the scar-removal cream. The scar-removal cream is a groundbreaking product and the foundation for our company’s future development!”

“Wait, Shen Fei, are you really that sure Lao Tang won’t ever develop a product that can rival the scar-removal cream?”

Han Xinyan was stunned by Shen Fei’s statement.

Shen Fei was momentarily taken aback.

In his past life, Tang Xingwen had worked with him for decades, and many of their successes had been the result of their joint efforts.

In this life, if Shen Fei wasn’t confident about Lao Tang’s abilities, he wouldn’t be making such bold moves. But he kept these thoughts to himself.

He paused and then said loudly, “I can’t say for certain. Lao Tang and his team will definitely develop more great products in the future! But the scar-removal cream’s appearance was groundbreaking for both us and the outside world! Of course, if Lao Tang can develop something even better than the scar-removal cream, that would be great. But if not, that’s fine too—just the scar-removal cream alone will ensure our prosperity!”

Just as Shen Fei finished speaking, Han Xinyan suddenly said, “Aren’t you worried that other companies will develop a product better than the scar-removal cream?”

At this, Shen Fei felt a headache coming on.

Wasn’t this veering off course?

In the past twenty years, no company had been able to develop a product better than the scar-removal cream.

That’s why he had called the scar-removal cream a revolutionary product.

As Shen Fei pondered how to respond, Han Xinyan suddenly grabbed his arm and, looking very serious, said, “Darling, let’s not talk about that for now. I think it’s clear to me now that our Yuezhen series will still rely on Lao Tang. Both the scar-removal cream and the sunscreen come from his hands! Everything we have now, our success, is thanks to Tang Xingwen. He is the most important person to us… Don’t you think we should find a way to tie him even more closely to our company?”

“Huh? Why are you bringing this up all of a sudden? What exactly are you suggesting?”

Shen Fei was surprised by Han Xinyan’s question and curious about her reasoning.

“Lao Tang was brought in by you, and he was happy with the three billion annual salary. But human nature is complex, and over time, people’s hearts can change. Tang Xingwen is to the Yuezhen series what the heart is to a person. This is already common knowledge in the industry! I’m worried that one day, someone will sow discord between him and us. If Lao Tang really breaks with us, we’ll lose a lot, especially since we all worked so hard together to succeed. The thought of it being ruined because of public opinion or personal misunderstandings is something we all can’t accept!”

Han Xinyan’s expression was serious.

Clearly, she placed great importance on this issue.

“Hmm, you’re right. Go ahead, keep talking!”

Shen Fei put away his smile and listened attentively, no longer in a playful mood.

Though he had considered this at the beginning of the company’s founding, now he didn’t want to discourage Han Xinyan’s initiative.

“I think that the best way to ensure long-term success is by binding interests together. So, what do you think about giving Lao Tang some shares in the Yuezhen series?”

Han Xinyan said softly, looking at Shen Fei with caution, waiting for his response.

—————- END —————-

Chapter 489: Dividing the Shares!

Currently, the Yuezhen series only has two products, but its potential for future development is enormous.

Before this, even Qian Dasheng, the chairman of Qiankun Group, wanted to invest and join in!

Looking at the current situation:

The sales of the scar-removal cream have no limits, with demand far outstripping supply. Even so, the daily sales of the scar-removal cream are at least 20,000 bottles, and the daily profit can reach millions. This is under the restriction of a small factory and only selling in the domestic market. If the factory were expanded and overseas markets were tapped…

As for the new sunscreen, although it has only just launched, the fact that 3,000 bottles sold out in just thirty seconds shows its incredible potential. Its future sales will undoubtedly be strong!

Considering only the current state, the Yuezhen series is already worth a fortune.

Such enormous value made it impossible for Han Xinyan to stay calm when she brought up her suggestion.

Even though Shen Fei had once mentioned giving Tang Xingwen some shares and even though Tang had previously declined, the situation now was different. Tang might develop different ideas.

That’s why Han Xinyan was so cautious when bringing it up.

Noticing Han Xinyan’s mood, Shen Fei suddenly asked, “Ayan, do you realize that even just a fraction of a percent of the shares in the Yuezhen series represents something huge?”

“I understand!” Han Xinyan immediately nodded.

“Good. Let’s not talk about the distant future—that’s too vague. Just look at the next two years. Two years from now, the Yuezhen series could be worth around two hundred billion. If we expand the factory and open up overseas markets, or even go public, the value could multiply several times. A fraction of a percent of the shares could easily be worth several billion!” Shen Fei said loudly.

Han Xinyan was stunned. She couldn’t believe what she was hearing.

Two years from now, the Yuezhen series could be worth two hundred billion?

And that’s just the domestic market!

If the factory was expanded and overseas markets captured, it could at least multiply five times.

For a moment, Han Xinyan’s emotions surged.

She took a deep breath and said lightly, “These numbers do sound incredibly tempting when you connect them to money! But all of this value is thanks to Tang Xingwen! If we can’t keep him secure, or if he decides to break away from us and either start his own company or join another, then both the scar-removal cream and the sunscreen will become someone else’s. We won’t be able to bear that loss!”

“Moreover, Tang Xingwen’s research won’t stop at just these two products! For us, his departure would be a huge loss!”

After hearing Han Xinyan’s serious analysis, Shen Fei smiled knowingly.

“So you’re thinking of giving him some shares?”

“Yes, you can call me greedy, but in business, there are no permanent friends, only permanent interests! Only then can we ensure that Lao Tang will always be loyal to our company!” Han Xinyan said confidently.

“Ha, I didn’t expect you to have such awareness! You’ve really grown!” Shen Fei laughed suddenly.

“What are you talking about! I’m discussing serious matters here! My earlier thinking was narrow, but that was all because of life circumstances. We didn’t have enough money to pay rent, we couldn’t afford to live, couldn’t even pay Yueyue’s tuition, and had to skip meals for days while being chased for debts. Life was so suffocating… I shudder just thinking about it, but I also know that the change in our lives wasn’t just because you turned things around; it’s also thanks to Tang Xingwen. Without him, how could we have the happy life we have now?” Han Xinyan said sincerely.

Hearing Han Xinyan bring up her past life was rare for Shen Fei, and he couldn’t help but feel moved.

All of that was because of him, but Han Xinyan never once blamed him.

“I understand! So what you’re thinking, I’ve already considered it!” Shen Fei said softly.

“What do you mean? Have you already discussed it with Tang Xingwen?” Han Xinyan asked in confusion.

“No, not yet! I just decided how much to give him in shares, and I had Liang Shuang from Yunhe Firm draft it! I’ve decided to give him 8%!” Shen Fei paused before continuing, “I did bring up the idea of sharing some of the shares with him before, but he refused. I understand why—he probably wants to repay me for my recognition of him. If it weren’t for me accepting him back then, he probably wouldn’t have been able to make his dreams come true. That’s probably why he so firmly rejected the idea of shares!”

“But, despite his rejection, we still have to give it to him! He will remain loyal to Xinyue Group, to us, and he won’t leave because of any external reasons. I trust him, and I’m giving him the shares he deserves! Although I founded Xinyue Group, I couldn’t have done it without Tang Xingwen’s contributions. In fact, it’s largely because of him that we are where we are. Based on that, 8% is actually too little!”

After hearing Shen Fei’s sentiments, Han Xinyan didn’t immediately respond.

Eight percent of the shares… seemed a bit much in her view.

“Darling, 8%? Really?” Han Xinyan exclaimed.

“Yes! What do you think? If it’s too much, we can reduce it a bit? But I’m sure Lao Tang would accept it no matter what. After all, he always sees money as something external!” Shen Fei raised an eyebrow and teased.

Han Xinyan was silent.

After a long while, she spoke firmly, “Eight percent is a lot for the current Yuezhen series, but it’s not enough for the Yuezhen series of the future! No matter what, whether Lao Tang stays with us or not, we will have treated him fairly!”

Seeing Han Xinyan’s determination, Shen Fei suddenly laughed.

“I’ve actually been waiting for you to say this!”

“Huh? Why? Were you worried I wouldn’t agree? I’m not stingy!” Han Xinyan was puzzled, but then she rolled her eyes at Shen Fei.

“It’s not that. I just wanted to see when you’d realize this! You’ve got the right mindset!” Shen Fei said frankly.

“Well, I may not think as much as you do, but I do understand the basics of weighing pros and cons. Between Tang Xingwen and 8% of the shares, I understand how important Tang Xingwen is to us!”

Han Xinyan pouted, clearly displeased with Shen Fei’s comment.

“Alright, alright. I was just testing you! Well, you’ve really grown over the past six months!” Shen Fei quickly comforted her.

Looking at the time, he changed the subject.

“It’s getting late. Yueyue should be asleep by now! Would you like to help her wash up?”

Han Xinyan, who was about to continue rebutting Shen Fei, glanced at the time on her phone, then quickly dropped the subject and hurried to the bathroom with the little girl.

—————- END —————-

Chapter 490: I’ll Go Myself?

That evening, after settling Shen Jiayue to sleep, Han Xinyan was still in a state of excitement, perhaps due to the overwhelming success of the YX Sunscreen, which sold out 3,000 bottles in just thirty seconds after release.

In the orange-toned bedroom, Han Xinyan, dressed in a lace-trimmed camisole nightgown, rarely took the initiative to approach Shen Fei.

Upon seeing this, Shen Fei’s blood surged, and he couldn’t suppress his excitement. He immediately pulled Han Xinyan into his embrace.

Even though the cold wind outside was fierce, it had no effect on the rising temperature inside the bedroom.

The two of them were passionate, entangled in each other several times.

Han Xinyan was even more proactive, repeatedly seeking Shen Fei’s affection.

By the time they had both reached their satisfaction, it was still two or three hours before dawn.

“I won’t be this proactive again next time. I’m exhausted!” Han Xinyan sighed deeply, feeling utterly drained in Shen Fei’s arms.

“You’re tired? I’m probably even more tired!” Shen Fei smiled, teasing her.

“Come on, with that confident look of yours, you don’t look tired at all!” Han Xinyan replied playfully, but she was clearly satisfied.

“Well, you have to thank my youth and strength. Otherwise, with your enchanting nature, I’d have been too tired to even get any rest!” Shen Fei joked.

“Cut it out, stop praising yourself!” Han Xinyan gave him a light snort, clearly enjoying herself.

After a while, as they lay together, Han Xinyan suddenly sat up, her expression turning serious.

“I almost forgot something! Husband, didn’t we talk about opening a physical store before? The shop is all set up, and the staff has been hired. In about five days, we’ll open the store—if nothing else happens. Also, the Lan Ting Building in Shenzhen invited us to the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the branch. Should we go?”

Shen Fei immediately replied, “As for that, you and a few staff members can go. I’ll skip it.”

“Huh? You’re not going?” Han Xinyan asked, surprised.

“This is just a small matter. Do I need to go myself? It’s unnecessary,” Shen Fei replied bluntly.

“You really are something, acting all high and mighty!” Han Xinyan laughed, shaking her head, then got out of bed.

“What are you up to now?” Shen Fei asked, confused.

“Of course, I’m going to take a bath. Even though it’s cold, I can’t sleep properly feeling all sticky!” Han Xinyan explained.

“Alright, then…” Shen Fei motioned to get up.

“No, let’s just take separate baths! I’m worried that if we’re in the same room, you’ll get all fiery again, and I still have to work tomorrow!” Han Xinyan rejected him, quickly heading for the bathroom.

She even made sure to lock the door, making Shen Fei laugh in exasperation.

With nothing else to do, he checked the time, and a sense of pride as a man surged within him.

—

The next day.

Even after several hours of activity the previous night, when the alarm went off in the morning, Han Xinyan immediately got up and took Shen Jiayue out.

Shen Fei, on the other hand, slept until well into the afternoon.

As for the news about the YX Sunscreen selling out 3,000 bottles in thirty seconds, it had already become a headline across major internet platforms.

Compared to the initial speculations that not many people would buy YX Sunscreen, the fact that 3,000 bottles sold out in thirty seconds was much harder to believe.

“Tsk, is this data real? 3,000 bottles of sunscreen sold out in thirty seconds?”

“There are so many idiots in Huaguo with too much money and too little sense! This sunscreen costs 750 per bottle, and so many people are buying it?”

“Shut up, you jealous losers! Just because you can’t afford the 750 for sunscreen, doesn’t mean it’s the same for everyone! For me, 750 isn’t even enough for my daily pocket money! If it weren’t for the limit of one bottle per person, I’d buy ten bottles just to be at ease!”

“Tsk, some people in the comment section are ridiculous! YX’s scar cream has been out for so long, and the flagship stores together have at least 30 million fans! Three thousand bottles of sunscreen aren’t even enough for a snack! I’ve always been neutral, but some comments are just too much! Don’t talk about 750, even 1500 is better than those foreign brands!”

“I agree with the person above! Those foreign brands look down on us in Huaguo, but they use good materials overseas, and when it comes here, they use cheap, low-quality materials! Their double standard behavior gets praise and purchases from some people, I can’t believe it! Besides, YX offers a refund without question—how many big brands can do that?”

“Forget it, I can’t afford it anyway! Now that the sunscreen is 750, don’t expect YX to ever have anything under 500 again! They’re a high-end brand now!”

“Sigh, I thought there’d be a good domestic brand, but it turns out capitalists are the same everywhere! From now on, I’m done with this brand!”

“Cut it out, at this rate, I bet the scar cream will raise its price too! Let it go up, I’ve never been able to grab a bottle anyway! It’d be best if it hits 10,000 per bottle so that no one can buy it!”

Following a wave of comments about the YX Sunscreen, discussions soon shifted to various aspects of the YX series—its product status, level, and marketing strategies.

The attention was much higher than before, and for a while, the YX series had become a sensation.

—

At the Yunhe Villa, Shen Fei woke up and checked his phone, naturally noticing the headlines.

He glanced at it briefly but didn’t delve into the specifics. Even so, he could easily guess what the online discussions were about.

After getting cleaned up, Shen Fei reheated the heartwarming breakfast his wife had prepared.

After a leisurely breakfast, he found a comfortable spot to sit and prepared to continue playing the mobile game “Tianjue.”

However, the phone suddenly rang.

Seeing the caller ID, Shen Fei froze.

It had indeed been a while since he last heard from this person.

This was the female CEO of Qiankun Group, a powerful woman who had built the company’s real estate empire.

If she hadn’t reached out, he might have forgotten all about her by now!

With a wry smile, Shen Fei shook his head.
