Chapter 516: Chapter 515: The Person Behind the Scenes

Faced with Mr. Miao’s request, Yan Feifan found it hard to refuse and ultimately agreed to take on Xu Fang as his work assistant.

However, he also laid down three conditions with Mr. Miao.

If Xu Fang’s professional skills failed to meet his minimum standards, if he was careless, or if he did anything out of line, he would be let go at a moment’s notice.

After dinner, Yan Feifan returned home to find Zeng Ni was still there.

"Feifan, that creative product idea you came up with for hiding stashed cash—I consulted a few business people about it today..."

Zeng Ni said excitedly, "They all said it’s a fantastic startup project. If it takes off, the market potential is huge."

"But it needs a design team with some really wild ideas."

"As for the sales model, we’d mainly sell at street stalls and flea markets, with online sales on the side..."

Seeing how enthusiastic she was, Yan Feifan said casually, "I just threw that idea out there. Since you think it’s viable and a good opportunity, you can have it. Go run with it."

"Hope you strike it rich!"

Just then, Yan Ziruo chimed in, "Feifan, I also think it’s a great idea. I’m planning to invest five million and buy a stake in Zeng Ni’s company."

Yan Feifan grew anxious when he heard this.

He quickly warned, "Sis, don’t be impulsive."

"Even if my startup idea is decent, you have to consider whether the person running the project can actually pull it off, right?"

"Yan Feifan, what’s that supposed to mean?"

Zeng Ni got angry.

She reached out, grabbed Yan Feifan to face her, and got right in his face. "What part of me says I can’t get things done?"

"Let me tell you..."

Pointing to her own nose, Zeng Ni shouted, "Yan Feifan, don’t you dare underestimate me!"

"I am going to make this project a success. You just wait and see."

Yan Feifan took a step or two back to get some space, then retorted mockingly, "All you’re doing is shouting empty slogans. There’s no substance. If I’m not going to underestimate you, who am I going to underestimate?"

Zeng Ni’s chest heaved violently with anger as she panted heavily.

"Yan Feifan, fine. I won’t just talk big and shout slogans. Just you watch. We’ll see if I can get this project off the ground in six months."

Zeng Ni took a deep breath to calm herself and said, "Yan Feifan, you don’t have to worry about your and Ruoruo’s money being lost. I already told Ruoruo that I’ll sign an agreement to guarantee the investment."

"If I really do screw up this project..."

"—not that it will happen, but if it does—I’ll cover all the losses myself."

Seeing Zeng Ni thumping her chest, putting on a show of being righteous and responsible, Yan Feifan asked scornfully, "You’re someone who has to scam her friends for pocket money. How are you going to cover the losses all by yourself?"

Zeng Ni huffed, saying proudly, "That’s a completely different thing. Just because I don’t have pocket money doesn’t mean I don’t have startup capital."

"As long as I have a good project, I can apply for anywhere from a few million to tens of millions in startup funding."

As she spoke, Yan Feifan sat down on the sofa next to Yu Suye, who was holding a medical book.

Yu Suye popped a slice of watermelon into Yan Feifan’s mouth and chuckled. "Feifan, Nini isn’t actually exaggerating."

"I know that families like the Lu Family, Lu Yao’s family, have startup funds set up specifically for the younger generation. You could also call it a ’squander fund’."

"The main purpose of these funds is to give them experience; they don’t really care whether the startup succeeds or fails."

After swallowing the watermelon, Yan Feifan said, "Oh. Well, since Zeng Ni has that kind of backing..."

"Sis, I’m okay with the investment."

"Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while. If this succeeds, maybe you can use the profits to buy a villa."

Yan Feifan then asked, "Su Ye, do you want to invest?"

Yu Suye shook her head and smiled. "My entire net worth is already invested in your Extraordinary Technology Company. I don’t have any spare cash..."

Although Yan Feifan had agreed to his sister’s investment, he really had no faith in Zeng Ni. He felt that she treated business like she was playing house.

However, with a powerful backer like the Lu Family behind her, he didn’t have to worry about her failing to honor her guarantee...

After discussing the project for a little longer, Yan Feifan changed the subject. "Zeng Ni, I’ll have Yan Jiaojiao’s plastic surgery design plan ready before this Sunday."

"She told me I have free rein, but the plan still needs her approval and satisfaction."

"This Sunday, bring her to Baining Hospital so I can go over the surgical plan with her in person."

Zeng Ni grunted in agreement and nodded. "On Sunday, Jiaojiao and I will be waiting for you at Baining Hospital."

Then she asked curiously, "Feifan, how much are you guys charging her for the surgery?"

Yan Feifan shot her a look and said mysteriously, "That’s a trade secret. We signed a confidentiality agreement, so I can’t say."

The surgical fee had been set by Mr. Wang.

Given that it was a public surgery and Yan Jiaojiao was being very cooperative, Mr. Wang gave her a very generous discount.

660,000!

Their agreement also included a clause stating that if Yan Jiaojiao couldn’t fend off incessant questions and had to name a price, she must say it was 2.2 million, which was supposedly a discounted rate.

Zeng Ni scoffed. "Big deal. I can find out from Jiaojiao anyway."

"Oh, Feifan..."

Zeng Ni’s expression changed in a flash, replaced by a charming smile.

"A friend of a friend of mine... his uncle has a brain tumor..."

Hearing this, Yan Feifan’s expression turned cold. He cut her off bluntly, "Don’t even start. It’s not up for discussion!"

"If it were possible, I’d even cut back on my scheduled surgeries for Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays."

"I’m not taking on any additional brain or spinal tumor cases."

Zeng Ni pouted and muttered, "Fine, don’t take the case. No need to pull such a long face about it. Hmph..."

Yan Feifan’s expression softened as he explained, "Zeng Ni, it’s not that I’m being unreasonable."

"I need to gradually adjust my work schedule. In the next phase, my main focus will shift to other departments, like cardiothoracic surgery."

"I don’t want to confine myself to the narrow field of the Puncture Injection Skill."

Yan Feifan admitted frankly, "To be honest, the Puncture Injection Skill was something I stumbled upon by chance. The sense of accomplishment it gives me isn’t as strong as what I get from penile reconstruction surgeries."

Zeng Ni’s expression turned serious. "Some people can proudly make a living their whole lives off a single specialty, but you, Feifan, are never satisfied."

"No wonder you’re a genius and have achieved so much."

"Feifan, you’re my role model. I support you."

Yan Feifan couldn’t help but laugh. "Listen to you talk, as if you’re some big shot."

Zeng Ni said smugly, "I’m still so young. Who knows what the future holds? Maybe I’ll become a business tycoon one day."

Yan Feifan couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

Just then, his phone rang.

It was a call from Zheng Libing.

"Mr. Yan, with the full cooperation of the municipal and district bureaus, the special task force has successfully apprehended the intruder who broke into your home."

"And they’ve confessed."

"Who sent them?" Yan Feifan couldn’t help but ask.

"Lin Zuo of the Baiyulan Group!"

Lin Zuo, Ouyang Yanran’s brother-in-law, the head of the Baiyulan Group’s surgical robot project.

Hearing that the mastermind was the same guy who had shut him out before, Yan Feifan wasn’t surprised.
