Chapter 2351: Chapter 662: The Playboy Disappears, Heading to Country Zi (Part 4)
Qi Xiao noticed that An Yiqing wasn’t picky with food, so he quickly ordered many signature dishes from the restaurant. Soon, the waiter brought the delicious food one by one. As An Yiqing and the others ate, they discussed the upcoming World Business Association summit.
"Back when I was in school, I attended the World Business Association summit as an observer with my professor. It was indeed a unique experience, unforgettable to this day," Qi Xiao exclaimed. "Honestly, the outside world mythologizes the summit too much. Essentially, it’s just a series of banquets where people at the top of the world use the opportunity to communicate and look for partners. I spent a day there with my professor and found out that you can indeed learn a lot. Also, many hidden family clans appear at that time, and partnering with them could bring considerable benefits."
An Yiqing raised an eyebrow; she wasn’t too concerned about the hidden family clans. What she was more interested in was...
"Will the Anpei Clan from Country Bai be participating?"
Qi Xiao was taken aback, "Are you referring to the Onmyoji Anpei Clan?"
"Yes."
"The Anpei Clan’s enterprises are mostly within Country Bai, so they don’t technically meet the World Business Association’s criteria. However, the Anpei Family has deep roots and a special status, so they are naturally on the invitation list. Not only them, but also the Tutian Family from Country Bai, the Xuanjin Muyun International Group, and the Flower Island Li Group are all invited. Chairman, you will likely meet many familiar faces then."
An Yiqing raised her eyebrows slightly, surprised to find out that so many old acquaintances were attending. She pondered for a moment and instructed Qi Xiao, "Quickly prepare a list of attendees for this World Business Association summit. I need the most accurate one."
"Alright, I’ll deliver it to you tomorrow. But Chairman, there are still several days before the summit starts. Since you’re already here, why don’t I show you around Wudu City?" Qi Xiao suggested warmly.
An Yiqing was also interested in exploring Wudu City, but her visit to Country Zi involved not only the World Business Association summit but also other matters.
"After the summit ends, if there’s time, we can go sightseeing. For now, I have a few appointments and can’t spare the time."
Qi Xiao was very curious about what appointments the young chairman had in Country Zi, but he wasn’t the kind to gossip about others’ privacy. After dinner, he personally escorted An Yiqing and her group to the hotel, gave detailed instructions, and then left.
Once the room door closed, An Yiqing breathed a sigh of relief. A flash of purple light appeared, and Long Zixuan and a few others emerged from the Ancient Space.
"I asked you to fly with me, but you insisted on hiding in the space. Since when did you start being frugal and saving on airfare?" An Yiqing teased.
Fatty Mao Er pouted, his little braided hair swaying, "The air outside isn’t as comfortable as inside the space. This Wudu City is all foggy and stuffy on the chest." With that, the little girl nimbly flipped and flopped herself onto the soft couch.
Long Zixuan, Xiao Hei, and Old Jin also sat down one after another; without outsiders around, they were relaxed and completely ignored An Yiqing.
Seeing the lazy bunch in such a state, An Yiqing twitched her lips and pulled out a tablet to bring up the map of Wudu City.
"Sister An, are you planning to meet that person tomorrow?" Long Zixuan raised his attractive eyebrows as he watched An Yiqing fiddling with the map.
"Well, it’s hard to come by news about the Purple Jade Sprite, so I can’t let it slip," An Yiqing said, her head down as she searched for an address on the map.
Old Jin shook his head, "Do you really trust what Gu Tingting said? When has that girl ever been accurate?"
"Tingting might often be unreliable, but the people she knows are fairly dependable. This girl was someone Tingting met while she was an exchange student in Country Zi during high school. She’s said to have many connections in the antique jade stone field. I’ve searched all over domestically, and now that there’s finally a lead abroad, I definitely can’t let it go. Anyway, there’s nothing on the schedule for tomorrow, so why not take a look."
Previously, An Yiqing had been searching domestically for top-tier blue and purple Jade Spirits, but to no avail. Three years passed in a flash, and she and Gu Yelin both needed top-tier Jade Spirits to enhance their cultivation. Moreover, the Immortal-Slaying Formation at the Valley of Gods’ mansion also required jade stones with greater spiritual power. Some time ago, when she was busy searching for Jade Spirits, Gu Tingting happened to visit her mother-in-law’s home and saw her. Gu Tingting provided her with a lead on a friend. This friend was someone she met on Antique Jade Street in Wudu when she went to Country Zi as an exchange student during high school. The girl reportedly has a great interest in antique jade stones and decided to leave her family early to venture into business. Over time, she accumulated many contacts.
