Liu Shimei had no choice but to pay Wu Jingyi two hundred thousand yuan when threatened. Wu Jingyi left smugly, but Liu Shimei was left distraught. Xu Wendong comforted her and vowed to deal with Wu Jingyi, learning that she is the unofficial girlfriend of the Ye Family's Second Young Master, Ye Dong.

Xu Wendong retrieved his phone and dialed the number belonging to the Ye Family's eldest daughter, Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu answered promptly, her voice imbued with respect, "Good morning, Mister Xu!"

Xu Wendong inquired casually, "Are you occupied at the moment?"

Ye Qiu replied, "Not at all, Mister Xu, is there something you require?"

A smile touched Xu Wendong's lips as he stated, "I shall send you a location; please come over."

"Understood, I am on my way." Despite her lack of knowledge regarding Xu Wendong's reasons for the meeting, Ye Qiu readily assented.

After concluding the call, she glanced towards her family, who were currently partaking in breakfast at the dining table.

At this precise moment.

The members of the Ye Family observed her with curiosity, pondering the significance of Xu Wendong's call to Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu's father exclaimed with evident excitement, "Daughter, could it be that Master Xu has taken a liking to you?"

These words instantly illuminated the eyes of the surrounding Ye Family members.

If Xu Wendong were indeed to favor Ye Qiu, it would represent an immense blessing for the entire Ye Family!

Even though the full extent of Xu Wendong's true power remained unknown to them.

One aspect was undeniably clear.

His formidable strength was far beyond the capabilities of any ordinary cultivator.

Should they manage to forge an alliance with Xu Wendong, the Ye Family's prospects would undoubtedly soar, potentially elevating them to the elite echelons of the Great Xia Country!

Ye Qiu shot her father a dismissive glance, retorting with a hint of irritation, "How could Master Xu possibly fancy someone like me, a mere common beauty?"

While she possessed self-assurance regarding her physical appearance and form.

She had encountered Xu Wendong on two prior occasions.

During both instances, Xu Wendong's gaze had been as clear as pristine water, devoid of any impure intentions.

"Daughter, since Master Xu has reached out to you, you should meet him and ascertain how our Ye Family can offer assistance," Mr. Ye's voice resonated slowly.

He harbored immense gratitude for Xu Wendong's life-saving intervention on behalf of the Ye Family.

Without his timely help, the Ye Family would have undoubtedly faced utter ruin.

"Very well, Grandpa, I shall depart to see Mister Xu immediately." Ye Qiu agreed and then departed from the Ye residence, piloting a striking fiery red supercar towards Liu Shimei's Qipao Store.

Upon exiting her vehicle, she took a deep, fortifying breath, endeavoring to compose herself before stepping inside the establishment, where Xu Wendong was seated upon a sofa.

"Good morning, Mister Xu!" Ye Qiu greeted him with deference.

Her greeting caused Liu Shimei to audibly gasp, her captivating eyes widening in astonishment.

Having resided in Qingyuan for a span of eighteen years, she possessed an almost intimate familiarity with the locale.

She immediately recognized Ye Qiu's identity as the esteemed eldest daughter of the prominent Ye Family.

This revelation left her in a state of disbelief, utterly unprepared for the notion that Xu Wendong was acquainted with such a wealthy heiress.

After all.

Xu Wendong had only recently returned!

"Miss Ye, there is no need for such formality. I have invited you here today to request your assistance," Xu Wendong said with a smile. "This establishment belongs to my sister, but its business operations are not flourishing. Therefore, I was hoping you could lend your expertise to invigorate its sales."

Ye Qiu, embodying the poise expected of the Ye Family's eldest daughter, immediately grasped Xu Wendong's underlying intention. She declared, "Allow me to handle this. I shall commission a few custom qipaos, and I will also ensure that the other women in my family come here to order qipao dresses as well!"

With her decision made, she promptly reached for her phone and initiated a call.

Approximately half an hour later.

Two young individuals, members of the Ye Family, arrived at the Qipao Store.

Xu Wendong recognized both of them; they were Ye Qiu's cousins, both in their twenties.

Upon entering the store, they offered polite greetings to Xu Wendong, maintaining a commendable level of composure.

Ye Qiu got straight to the point: "Brothers, do you not both have numerous female acquaintances? Kindly invite them over to order some qipaos and help boost Mister Xu's sister's business."

Hearing this directive.

The two young men exchanged glances, a flicker of awkwardness crossing their faces. They were acutely aware of their respective involvements with numerous ladies outside of any formal relationships.

However.

These female companions had never, not once, made an appearance simultaneously.

The prospect of gathering them all together at this juncture instilled a sense of unease within them.

Notwithstanding their internal disquiet, they found themselves compelled to comply.

Firstly, their action would contribute to the improvement of Xu Wendong's sister's enterprise.

Secondly, although Ye Qiu was their cousin, her standing within the Ye Family was exceptionally high, and they dared not disregard her instructions.

The two Ye Family cousins reluctantly retrieved their mobile phones and commenced contacting their respective female acquaintances.

A palpable blend of apprehension and anxiety permeated their beings as they contemplated the possibility of the ladies refusing their invitations or, worse, creating a scene upon their eventual meeting.

About thirty minutes passed.

A petite young woman was the very first to grace the Qipao Store with her presence.

Her figure was delicate and exquisitely proportioned, reminiscent of a finely crafted porcelain doll.

She was adorned in a crimson dress, its tailoring impeccably executed to accentuate her slender waist and shapely hips.

Her face was delightfully round and flushed, akin to a ripe apple, presenting an irresistible temptation to be gently pinched.

Her large, expressive eyes shone with an innocent and pure luminescence, lending her an undeniably charming aura.

A smile played on her lips as she revealed a set of perfectly aligned, white teeth, enhancing her warm and inviting demeanor.

Following closely behind her.

Emerged a tall, willowy, and strikingly beautiful woman.

She was dressed in a light blue gown, its hemline swaying gracefully with each step she took, projecting an air of exceptional elegance.

Her skin, as fair as snow, possessed a subtle radiance, akin to polished jade. Her bright, vivacious eyes twinkled with an inner spirit, seeming to harbor a galaxy within their depths. Cascading down her back, her long, dark tresses flowed with her every movement, releasing a delicate, alluring fragrance.

Once inside, they approached a man named Ye Tao, each girl linking an arm through his, their gazes locked in a silent, hostile exchange. At that moment, Ye Tao desperately wished the ground would swallow him whole. Nevertheless, he could only steel himself, putting on a brave face, and declared, "I asked you here to support the business of this establishment. Both of you, go and get measured by Miss Liu!"

The two women glared at each other with renewed intensity before reluctantly turning to approach Liu Shimei for their measurements. As time trickled by, a steady stream of young women began to enter the Qipao Store. These women were either adorned in trendy dresses or sported meticulously applied makeup. Each possessed a captivating figure, exuding an undeniable aura of elegance and charm.

Meanwhile, Xu Wendong sat in the lounge area beside Ye Qiu, calmly enjoying her tea and pastries. "The two gentlemen from the Ye Family certainly have discerning taste. With them involved, the Ye Family's future is bound to be prosperous!" she remarked. Ye Qiu felt a surge of delight. Though she typically held a low opinion of such women, hearing Xu Wendong's words made her feel that the Ye Family should perhaps acknowledge them.

Just then, the door creaked open, revealing a familiar figure – Wu Jingyi, the very woman who had previously extorted twenty thousand from Liu Shimei. Upon spotting Ye Xun, the Second Young Master of the Ye Family, Wu Jingyi immediately swayed her hips seductively. "Darling," she purred, her voice laced with coy affection, "With so many high-end Qipao boutiques in Qingyuan, why did you specifically ask me to come here for a qipao? You must know, the quality here is rather poor!"
