Li Zhengtang had taken pills before, but the healing pills Yang Feilong provided were clearly no ordinary items. He took one and swallowed it, and in the blink of an eye, his complexion became incredibly rosy.
"Grandpa, why did you and Feilong start fighting?" Li Yufei asked, frowning as she looked at Li Zhengtang, whose injuries had mostly recovered.
She had initially wanted to say that he shouldn't bully Yang Feilong just because he had a higher cultivation, but recalling how her grandfather had coughed up blood earlier while Yang Feilong remained unharmed, she swallowed the words back.
"I just wanted to test Feilong's combat strength!" Li Zhengtang chuckled. "I'm very satisfied with the final result!"
At this moment, he finally understood why Yang Feilong hadn't taken the Liu family seriously before.
After all, with such powerful cultivation, capable of defeating even him, that old geezer from the Liu family would certainly not be Yang Feilong's match, unless he broke through to the Yuan Wu realm. But in Li Zhengtang's view, breaking through to Yuan Wu realm wasn't that easy. If it were, he would have done it long ago.
"I told you before that Feilong was very formidable, and you didn't believe me!" Li Yufei pouted.
Li Zhengtang smiled. Of course, he hadn't believed her before. The main reason was that his granddaughter, Li Yufei, had no cultivation and wasn't keen on martial arts. When she said Yang Feilong was strong, she didn't have a clear grasp of just how strong he was. Now, he knew that what his granddaughter had said was not an exaggeration.
"Yufei! I'm planning to transfer all my company shares to you!" Li Zhengtang said earnestly, looking at Li Yufei.
"Ah, Grandpa, how can I accept this? I can't take it!" Li Yufei repeatedly refused.
"Bogged down by company affairs, my cultivation has been stagnant! I haven't been able to break through!" Li Zhengtang shook his head. "And venturing out a while ago, though I was poisoned and suffered a setback, it gave me an epiphany. I'll go into seclusion for a period, and perhaps then I can break through. As for you, you've proven your talent through practical application. You have the right to manage the company."
"Grandpa, but the company that Feilong and I started is also prospering. If I were to take charge of the group, our company would likely be greatly affected!" Li Yufei shook her head. "Besides, the group is primarily managed by my father. Even if I returned, could I seize power from my father? Not only is it inappropriate, but I don't want to do that either!"
Li Zhengtang's brows furrowed slightly upon hearing Li Yufei's words.
In fact, another reason he wanted Li Yufei to take charge was his high regard for Yang Feilong. Their Li family group was worth tens of billions, which seemed substantial, but he believed that if Yang Feilong were to grow, he would definitely surpass their Li family. Making this move in advance was also a way to show his confidence in Yang Feilong, and to tie Yang Feilong to their Li family's "big ship."
"You should know that although your elder brother has some intelligence, he lacks great wisdom! You are far superior to him. If the group were handed over to him, let alone expanding it, it would be difficult for him to even maintain our family's vast foundation!" Li Zhengtang said seriously to Li Yufei.
"Grandpa, we don't need to discuss this for now. Although Yu Long Jewelry, which Feilong and I founded, is not perfect yet, I believe that once our company takes off, its future prospects will be no less than that of our Li family's group company!" Despite knowing her elder brother's capabilities well, Li Yufei still shook her head. "My father is still young, and he can manage the company's development well!"
In reality, even if she won the gamble against her father and gained the right to enter the group, she would only occupy an important position, not directly control the entire group. Since that was the case, it was better to focus on developing their "Yu Long Jewelry Limited Liability Company" with Yang Feilong.
The company wasn't originally called that. A while ago, Li Yufei renamed it Yu Long Jewelry. "Yu" came from Yufei, and "Long" came from Feilong, signifying Li Yufei's feelings for Yang Feilong.
"Since you have your own plans, then forget it," Li Zhengtang said helplessly, looking at his granddaughter's serious expression. "However, my shares will always be kept for you! Whenever you want them, just tell me!"
"Okay, Grandpa!" Li Yufei smiled, not refusing any further.
"Feilong, I'll keep this bottle of pills," Li Zhengtang said to Yang Feilong, gesturing with the pill bottle in his hand.
"I was planning to give it to you anyway," Yang Feilong replied with a smile.
"I've accepted the gift you gave me, and you must accept the gift I'll give you later!" Li Zhengtang said with a smile. Without waiting for Yang Feilong's reply, he walked towards the house, saying as he went, "You two young people can chat for a while."
The two looked at each other, feeling a bit embarrassed. They were clearly a fake couple, and the elder knew it, yet he treated them as a real couple. The feeling was rather peculiar.
"Why did you come in just now?" Yang Feilong asked, looking at Li Yufei, who seemed slightly reserved.
"I knew Grandpa liked sparring with people and testing geniuses with outstanding combat power, so I was worried you might get hurt by my grandpa. I stayed by the door the whole time," Li Yufei said sheepishly. "Later, I couldn't stand staying outside any longer, so I came in."
"And then you saw me injure the old man?" Yang Feilong chuckled.
"..."
"When you saw me injure Grandpa just now, didn't you want to scold me for not respecting elders?" Yang Feilong probed.
"Not at all," Li Yufei's face flushed. "Grandpa likes to fight. It's abnormal if he's not injured for two or three days, so I'm used to it. I just didn't expect that after you healed him, he'd still be the same!"
"Don't worry, after my treatment, Grandpa is no different than before. With the healing pills, he might even be able to reach a higher level in a short time by expelling any hidden injuries," Yang Feilong shrugged and smiled.
"I haven't thanked you yet. You saved my grandfather's life again this time!" Li Yufei said seriously, looking at Yang Feilong.
"Your grandfather was poisoned. You should have notified me earlier," Yang Feilong sighed. If he had known earlier, he might have chosen to come to the Li family sooner instead of the Han family.
"It's only been a few days. Initially, everyone at home said Grandpa's condition wasn't difficult to treat, but who would have thought it would develop to this extent!" Li Yufei said helplessly.
"Poison, in the beginning, hasn't deeply infiltrated the bone marrow, so it doesn't seem serious. But if it's not quickly expelled, once it takes hold and reaches the bone marrow, internal organs, and even the brain, it becomes severe!" Yang Feilong said softly but earnestly. "Any later, and it reaching the brain would be even more serious!"
"I understand!" Li Yufei stuck out her tongue, a playful smile appearing on her face. Being lectured by Yang Feilong inexplicably made her feel happy.
Yang Feilong looked at Li Yufei's mischievous expression and found it amusing for a moment. "You, you..."
Just then, a cough was heard.
The two immediately composed themselves and looked over. The elder had come out of the room. In his hand, he held a box, about a foot long.
"Grandpa, what's in this box?" Li Yufei asked curiously.
Yang Feilong also looked at the elder with curiosity.
