Chapter 178: Missing Each Other
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Some sensitive reporters saw a Cadillac limousine slowly drive towards the building. It slowed down as it got closer and eventually stopped in front of the building.
Sitting in the back of the car, Li Yuanfei closed his eyes to rest. The driver was skillful and the car was extraordinary, so he didn’t notice that the car had stopped.
Ding! His phone chimed.
He picked up his cellphone and looked at the monitor with his eyebrows furrowed.
[Game Tip]: We detected a rare pet in Binhai City. It is up to the player whether to capture or not.
[Game Tip]: Below is the pet information.
[Type of Pet]: Elfin
[Rarity]: Elite
[Difficulty to Capture]: Uncertain
[Degree of Danger]: Low
"Binhai City… That’s too far away." Li Yuanfei locked his cell.
In fact, he wouldn’t mind having another Elfin. However, it was a crucial time for his company to get ready for IPO and he was about to head to Beijing for meeting. Going to Binhai City for an Elfin seemed to be a luxury at this time. Most importantly, he could not assign anyone to capture Elfins for him.
Looking outside through the window, he noticed that he had arrived. More than 100 reporters were waiting for him to get out of the limousine.
If he wanted to capture the Elfin in Binhai city, the driver would take him to the airport as soon as he told him. When he arrived at the airport, his private plane would be ready to head anywhere… However, this was only an elite grade Elfin. It didn’t really matter if he missed it. Obviously, the crowd outside was more important. The ceremony of the new building and new logo was essential to the company. There was no room for error.
He lightly patted the cat’s head and said gently, "I don’t need another Elfin because I have you. Wait here. I will be right back."
With its eye squinted, it seemed to enjoy his petting. It made a noise that sounded like a cat yet was much lower and rough.
The driver got out, ran over to the door and opened his door.
Bending down, Li Yuanfei got out of the limousine. Smiling, he waved at all the reporters.
Lights kept flashing. He was used to being the focus of the crowd.
"This is the owner of Stars Pet Chain Supermarket? He looks so young. Is he in his forties?" Some reporters seeing him for the first time were astonished by how young he looked.
"That’s true. He didn’t finish high school. A self-made millionaire, just like Bill Gates," another reporter said.
"Really? I only thought about how to get girls when I was in high school!"
"Everyone is different, so are the opportunities. It is not even comparable."
"Right. Hey, let me remind you: When we do the Q&A, don’t call him ‘President Li’. He doesn’t like that name."
"Okay. Thanks for reminding me. I would’ve called him that."
"How should we address him?"
"He likes the name ‘Representative Li’."
"Representative… Li? So…"
"After this ceremony, he is flying to Beijing for an important meeting with the country’s leaders. Understand?"

"Wow! Isn’t that something?"
The PR manager came up with a big smile. She quietly reported the number of reporters and pointed out that a few well-known media outlets were also here. It was a ceremony that everyone was talking about.
Li Yuanfei nodded. He was happy with the PR department.
Today was going to be a historical moment. The more media, the better. For those who couldn’t make it, they would have a hard time dealing with him in the future.
The PR manager was excited to get the big boss’s praise.
Qian Tong and Yu fought their way up to a good position in the front.
"Wow! That’s the legendary owner of the Stars Pet Chain Supermarket? What a handsome middle-aged man!" Qian Tong couldn’t believe her eyes.
In fact, Li Yuanfei and Yu were same ago.
However, one was the owner of the biggest pet store chain and the other was only a cameraman. One was sharp in his expensive suit and the other was wearing a thousand-pocket vest. One was always the focus of the crowd, and the other was in charge of making sure the focus was on the "focus" of the crowd. One was a billionaire and the other was a husband trying to hide 200 Yuan from his wife…
Losers were losers, even when they grew old. Only the brightest could turn into handsome middle-aged men.
Without saying anything, Yu smiled embarrassedly. There was a bit of sadness in his eyes. The embarrassed smile was blocked by the camera where no one could ever find out.
Qian Tong would’ve never known that her thoughtless words had hurt Yu. She was not fantasizing Li Yuanfei, she was just shocked at how young and good-looking he was.
Yu said lightly, "Well, he is not that impressive. Look at those young kids who turned into billionaires in the IT industry. Before you worked here, I interviewed a billionaire in his twenties."
He was as if telling this to himself so he could be a bit more comfortable – Li Yuanfei was wealthy, yet he was not the most outstanding among the rich.
Qing Tong didn’t say anything.
Another reporter laughed and said, "That’s not an apple-to-apple comparison. The IT industry has passed its golden era. Honestly, the industry is so competitive, it has become the red sea. A great company could die the next day… the pet industry is completely different. Stars Pet Chain Supermarket is the one and best in the industry and no one can beat it."
Blushed, Yu was going to fight back, but the other guy continued, "Talking about money, they are preparing for the issuance of IPO now. Once they successfully go public, his net worth is going to be enormous. Ha-ha…"
That was totally true.
"Issuance of IPO… Who knows if that will work out. There are too many examples of failure," Yu continue.
The reporter said, "Yeah, you are right but look at it. It doesn’t have any sign of failing. You probably don’t know this, but after this ceremony, Li Yuanfei is going to Beijing to meet with the Secretary of Commerce as representative of the business sector."
Yu and Qian Tong looked at each other.
"That’s crazy!" Qian Tong’s eyes were wide-open.
"I heard," the reporter said in a low voice, "Li Yuanfei is going to announce some breaking news!"
"What breaking news?" Yu was inquisitive.
Qian Tong held her breath, waiting for the mysterious breaking news.
"Well, I am not sure. It is a huge one! Our general editor got the inside scoop about it, but he didn’t tell us a single thing. He said there is going to be an earthquake in the pet industry."
"F*ck!" Yu couldn’t help swearing while looking at Li Yuanfei from the backstage, "This guy is wealthy enough. What does he want now?"
"Ha-ha… Money is a great thing! Who doesn’t want more?" The reporter laughed as he patted his pocket, "I hope they make more money. I don’t care. They might give out more cash gifts next time. Right?"
"That… is true," Yu couldn’t deny that.
Li Yuanfei walked up to the podium and smiled at the audience.
"Ladies and gentlemen!"
