Chapter 696 This is Actually a Kind of Fate
In anticipation, Yu Xin felt a gentle force lift her up, and then she rose slowlly into the air above the flowers, surrounded by a rosy glow, just like a fairy.
As she danced in the air above the flowerbeds, the flower buds below her, still dew-laden and ready to bloom, opened slowly under the golden sunlight, creating wave after wave of floral waves. The beauty and astonishment of it was beyond description.
Wu Longcai and Wang Hui watched this scene, which was like a scenery from the Immortal Realm. They were so stunned and excited that they trembled all over, and it took a while before they could compose themselves and capture the scene on film.
During the filming, they didn't need to shout "cut," nor did they have to keep changing the camera angles.
They simply chose the right angles based on their expertise, then filmed it just like a documentary.
Because what they were filming was the true essence of the Flower Spirit and her world.
All they had to do was to "record" everything before them and present the reality to the viewers.
There was no need for excessive embellishment or any alterations.
Yu Xin had traveled back and forth to Hong Kong many times to get this advertisement right, but it only took one attempt here. When Wang Hui released the footage, everyone was enchanted, thinking there could be no more perfect an advertisement, except for Ge Dongxu, who thought it had minor flaws.
Since Ge Dongxu was not a nitpicker and saw that everyone was satisfied, he didn't fuss further.
Thus, the advertisement was completed like that.
On the journey back, people couldn't help but look at Ge Dongxu with awe, even influential figures like Gu Yezeng could not hide their admiration for him.
This ability to let someone dance in the air like a fairy, to make thousands of flowers bloom instantly, it was nothing less than the legendary powers of an Immortal. If one had not seen it with their own eyes, who would believe it?
And at that moment, the person who had wielded such an Immortal technique was among them.
After the commercial was filmed, Ge Dongxu's job was done.
Following a word from Ge Dongxu, Gu Yezeng, who came along, started to formally inspect investment projects in Linzhou City.
Only after the inspection and meeting with Governor Sang could he discuss specific projects with a clear aim.
Yu Xin and her son naturally had Liu Jiayao and Yue Ting accompanying them to tour the scenic spots of Linzhou City.
Meanwhile, Wu Longcai and Wang Hui discussed matters related to cutting the advertisement.
On Tuesday, Jiangnan Province reported on the meeting between Governor Sang and Gu Yezeng, including a number of investment projects that were agreed upon.
Aside from that news, another explosive story was that the Queen of Heaven, Yu Xin, had arrived in Linzhou City and was staying at the Kunting Grand Hotel.
This news garnered far more attention among the general public than the meeting between Governor Sang and the Chinese magnate, Gu Yezeng.
Once the news was released, nearly everyone in Linzhou City's streets and alleys was talking about it. Consequently, Kunting Grand Hotel not only became famous, but also saw an influx of guests coming to stay and dine, with many fans of the Queen of Heaven gathering at the entrance.
Ge Dongxu usually didn't pay attention to such news, and he heard about it from Li Chenyu and the others.
As soon as Ge Dongxu heard the news, he knew this news report must have been approved by Yu Xin and Gu Yezeng, and it was even highly likely they had proposed it themselves, with the intent of giving Kunting Grand Hotel free advertisement.
Because the man behind Kunting Grand Hotel was none other than Ge Dongxu himself.

"Boss, don't run off to the library after class today, and you two, stop wandering around aimlessly. Let's all four of us go grab a meal at Crystal Hall; my treat." On Wednesday at noon, before class, Lu Lei said with a beaming face.
"What's the occasion today that you're treating us at Crystal Hall? Don't tell me you got a girlfriend and plan to bring her over for us to meet?" Li Chenyu and He Guizhong immediately brightened up, asking curiously.
"Get lost, can't you guys think of anything else besides chasing girls?" Lu Lei glared at them and said.
"What else could be good enough for you, handsome Lu, to treat us? We do nothing but study at school," Li Chenyu said.
"Exactly! We really can't think of any other good news," He Guizhong agreed.
"How tacky! Couldn't I have some good news from home?" Lu Lei said irritably.
"From home? Could it be that your dad got promoted? Didn't you say last time that he went to study at the Provincial Party Committee's school!" Li Chenyu exclaimed with a delighted face.
"Seems you do know a bit about how the officialdom works. Yes, my dad became the deputy county head, and he's in charge of economic affairs. He might even join the county party standing committee next year," Lu Lei said excitedly.
"Damn! He really got promoted. Does that mean I now have a buddy who's a second-generation official?" Li Chenyu immediately shouted.
"So, should I start calling you Young Master Lu? Young Master Lu, you'll have to look out for me in the future!" He Guizhong said in an exaggerated tone.
"Cut it out! What second-generation official, what Young Master Lu! If you keep this up, beware I might cut ties with you guys," Lu Lei glared and warned.
"Boss, look at this, he's just become a second-generation official and he is already talking about cutting ties with us! It's true what they say, 'Appearances are deceiving. Time reveals a person's heart'!" He Guizhong and Li Chenyu immediately pointed at Lu Lei and complained.
"You guys... damn it!" Lu Lei, not particularly articulate, could only express his frustration.
"Alright, a little jest is enough. Can't you see Lu Lei is getting upset?" Ge Dongxu aimed a kick at He Guizhong and Li Chenyu.
The two immediately scampered away with a chuckle, then quickly wrapped an arm around Lu Lei's neck, saying, "Haha, just kidding! Brothers for life, even if you become a high official in the future, you'll still be our roommate in room 203, and that's something you can't change."
"Exactly! Among millions, the four of us ending up in the same dorm is fate, something not measurable by mundane wealth or power. We all should cherish it," Ge Dongxu nodded and said.
"There's our leader, speaking words of wisdom as always," He Guizhong immediately flattered.
"Cut the flattery, or I might stop instructing you in martial arts!" Ge Dongxu glared.
"No, don't do that, Boss!" He Guizhong immediately howled.
Because of the benefits of being close to the source, He Guizhong's martial arts skills had improved by leaps and bounds, like rocketing upwards. He had become a true expert in the Martial Arts Association, and some members, notably the ladies, had started asking him for martial arts lessons, which delighted him no end, unlike before when he was just a nominal officer, truly minding only official matters.
