<h4>Chapter 64: Chapter 64: Such Cruel Means!</h4>


    "Damn it! How can they do this?" Seeing the documents in front of her, Liu Xue angrily mmed them onto the table.


    Following her actions, her subordinates quickly stepped back a few paces with a frightened look.


    "Alright, this has nothing to do with you anymore, leave it to me!" Seeing the frightened looks of her subordinates, Liu Xue calmly waved them off.


    "Thank you, President Liu!" The other party thanked her and quickly exited Liu Xue’s office, fearing that Liu Xue would me them.


    After the other party left the office, Liu Xue frowned deeply.


    Although on the surface, Liu Xue appeared unbothered, she was very well aware that this matter was extremely serious.


    If she couldn’t resolve it properly, even with money in hand, she wouldn’t be able to get the jewelrypany up and running.


    Even if thepany was opened, without anything to sell, what use would it be?


    This gave Liu Xue a massive headache.


    After a moment of silence, Liu Xue took her things and went out, finding the first supplier.


    When she was with the Liu Family, she called the shots on everything, and she wanted to see if these suppliers would give her some face.


    Upon arriving at the entrance, Liu Xue asked the receptionist, "Is President Zhao avable?"


    Seeing it was Liu Xue, the receptionist sneered, "President Zhao? Do you think you can just see our President Zhao without an appointment?"


    Seeing this scene, Liu Xue was filled with rage.


    Back when Liu Xue was with the Liu Family, this receptionist fawned over her, calling her "sister" affectionately.


    But, today is not like the past. Seeing Liu Xue down and out, her attitude changed instantly, acting superior, simply adding insult to injury.


    "Xiao Li! Please call your President Zhao for me, I have an urgent matter." Liu Xue suppressed her anger and spoke kindly.


    "Bah!" The other party spat, disdainfully saying, "You think you can call Xiao Li? Look at your current state, do you think you deserve it?"


    At the same time, she impatiently shooed her away, "Get out of here, our President Zhao won’t see you."


    At this moment, a man walked past Liu Xue.


    Seeing him, Liu Xue’s eyes lit up, and she quickly called out, "President Zhao!"


    Hearing Liu Xue’s voice, the man turned back with a look of confusion.


    "Oh, it’s President Liu! You’re looking for me?" Seeing it was Liu Xue, President Zhao walked over.


    Liu Xue nodded and quickly said, "I have something I want to discuss with you, do you have time?"


    "If you’re here about supply issues, I advise you not to bother. We’ve already signed an exclusive supply contract with the Liu Family." President Zhao interrupted her before she could finish speaking.


    "Why?" Liu Xue was somewhat confused.


    An exclusive supply contract is very unreasonable, why would thispany agree to such a thing?


    "We had no choice, the Liu Family is wealthy and powerful, we can’t refuse them, and frankly, you’re a start-up we can’t take seriously," President Zhao said with a smile, very directly.


    "Ourpany may be a start-up, but we will definitely grow. Wouldn’t that be a win-win situation? I believe mypany will grow bigger than the Liu Family," Liu Xue quickly argued upon hearing his words.


    "To be honest, in our eyes, you’re just small-time and won’t make an impact. I suggest you return to the Liu Family; you’re just wasting your efforts here." The disdain in the other party’s eyes was evident,pletely dismissing Liu Xue’spany.


    "President Zhao, I bet you that mypany will surpass the Liu Family in the future. I mean what I say." Liu Xue clenched her fists in anger, leaving behind those words as she turned and left.


    "Ha ha!" Hearing Liu Xue’s words, President Zhao let out a coldugh.


    He could never have anticipated how much this coldugh would cost him in the future...


    After leaving the first supplier, Liu Xue went to other suppliers’panies, only to get the same result.


    All thesepanies looked down on Liu Xue and refused to supply her with goods. At this moment, Liu Xue felt somewhat exhausted.


    But this was not the worst; when she returned to thepany, she heard even more severe news.


    "What? Aplete shortage of high-end jadeite?" Upon hearing the report from her subordinate, Liu Xue jumped up.


    Although other supplies were severelycking, high-end jadeite was the most crucial.


    To attract customers and make a name for the brand, high-end jadeite was indispensable.


    At this moment, Liu Xue felt utterly despondent.


    Originally, she was full of confidence, believing she could make a significant impact and utterly defeat the Liu Family.


    But things went so awry right from the start, much beyond her expectations. The path she chose was far more challenging than she had imagined...


    Meanwhile, under Xu Kun’s lead, Ye Feng arrived at the Herb Market. Ye Feng originally thought he would find many suitable herbs here to aid in his cultivation.


    After circling around, he didn’t even find a single strand of hair, leaving him at a loss for words.


    ording to the shopkeepers, someone woulde here periodically to sweep up only herbs aged a hundred years or more.


    Therefore, finding a hundred-year-old herb here was very difficult and required some luck.


    Upon hearing the shopkeeper’s answer, Ye Feng came to terms with it.


    It seemed that other cultivators also wanted to find cultivation resources in such ces.


    Seeing as he found nothing, Ye Feng let Xu Kun take him back.


    However, Xu Kun insisted on taking him to a club to have some fun, to rx, he said.


    Since he had nothing else to do, Ye Feng agreed and followed Xu Kun to the club.


    Just as they entered the club, Xu Kun was called away by his father who had an urgent matter.


    With no choice, Ye Feng could only enjoy himself alone.


    By a stroke of bad luck, he happened to run into Liu Qingsong.


    Seeing Ye Feng, Liu Qingsong was a bit surprised and, leading his group over, taunted, "Oh! Isn’t this the useless freeloader? You actually got into the club?"


    "What business is it of yours? Get lost!" Ye Feng responded without any courtesy.


    "Do you dare to talk to me like that? Have you grown a backbone?" Hearing Ye Feng’s words, Liu Qingsong was immediately enraged.


    Originally, Liu Qingsong was in good spirits after venting his frustrations and came to rx, but he didn’t expect Ye Feng to tell him to get lost. How could he tolerate that?


    "This loser, did he sneak in here? Security! Where’s the security?"


    "Quick, securitye and throw him out. He snuck in without a membership card!"


    As Liu Qingsong spoke, hispanions mored as well.


    Hearing theirmotion, the club staff came over, and after hearing what happened, they approached Ye Feng and politely asked, "Excuse me! Sir, do you have a membership card?"


    Their attitude was polite, but the corners of their eyes were full of disdain and mockery, eager to see Ye Feng’s embarrassment.
