My CEO Harem Cultivation System

These were the things that happened at the sudden announcement of the man's arrival.

Somewhere in a grand mansion, an old lady looked at the screen with displeasure and looked for her son to air her grievances of this shameful sight.

"Call for my son, Chao Yun right now." The old woman pointed at her butler and expected immediate service. 

It was rare for her to pay attention to things now that everything was established in their family, but some things really couldn't be helped.

The matriarch of the Li Family stared at the screen. "He was better off not returning at all."

Currently in a building at the financial district, specifically the Olympian Corp's headquarters based in Shanghai was someone who didn't actually watch the television. 

That was until the older brother received a sudden call from his new-secretary and sudden reports coming in from different agencies looking for an official statement.

It was there that the news came on.

"Crap, when did Yang ever like making a scene like this one?" Liang rubbed his forehead. 

Perhaps it wasn't entirely the man's fault.

The older man muttered underneath his breath. 

"I bet it was that Angeline—Gabrielle always said that the woman loved making news. It's only recently that her social media company started picking up—she's obviously the perpetrator… but the Li genes certainly made it into an eye-grabbing one."

There was the fact that news only focused on only the most outrageous, attention demanding, significant events—but he chose to ignore it.

As much as Liang may have wanted to grin and think that his younger brother only got a hang of commanding attention now… he still thought of who exactly Yang left behind when he disappeared.

The man's girlfriend, Gabrielle, now acted like a surrogate mother to Chunhua. But even if the young child didn't exactly know who Yang was even up until today—

The now former CEO's older brother decided to take care of matters that he could actually handle and left the situation he knew would occur at a later time.

Still at a hospital, or rather a better medical facility was a young child.

Perhaps a slightly older child was the apt term. Said child looked up from reading her mother a storybook aloud. It was as if she felt a sudden chill in her body and she looked at her own mother and possibly saw something that wasn't there before.

The mother who appeared like she was asleep like a princess. Even the story of the sleeping beauty held no comparison.

But why would a monster come—

Downtown of the financial district, around the market area, was another viewer. In a building disguised on the outside but held great secrets of the things that lurked in the city—a long haired ponytailed man suddenly sat up and pointed at the screen. 

He nearly dropped the soda in his hand. Which was amazing because it cost so much after its recent development.

But that didn't matter. Nobody else seemed to be around, or perhaps it was a guy that mixed well in the background. And yet Hua Zhao started calling out to Dai Song Lan.

"Oi, you should give the two of them a call. Isn't this what the two of them have been waiting for?" 

The presence of not only one, but two women were demanded upon.

Perhaps it wasn't so necessary for one of them.

Surprisingly or not, the Bodyguard who did get paid for quite a lump sum really had installed the latest amenities in the temple of her choice. 

Cultivators, young and old, could see the handsome man's appearance on the 80" movie theatre television that a certain Tigress spirit bought.

Speaking of which, the popcorn bowl quickly dropped into the floor with a large clang. 

Popcorn spilled all over the wooden floor in a temple that may have not been too far off from what Mashiro Temple looked like if a CEO was granted the chance to visit.

"B-Bossman?" Taiga gawked at the screen as if she had seen some sort of ghost.

"Hey, are you going to eat that?" One of the disciples asked.

Taiga quickly looked at the mess on the floor and shook her head. "No, Taiga needs the fastest ride back to the mainland. Taiga will find a ship to get back to the port and then she'll probably need a map and a ride to get back to the city..."

"Huh?"

"Taiga will probably see you guys again if she gets kicked out!" Taiga grinned at them brightly despite the uncertainty in her heart. 

The memory of his disappearance was something she failed to stop. 

It had been up to her to take care of him and yet Taiga felt she failed and sucked at her job. 

That was how Taiga ended up returning to Shou Temple Sect because she didn't have anything else to do. Taiga was even at a current loss after she actually got paid in proxy by the Shen Society for her services to Li Yang…

Not to mention when Taiga thought about how awkward things came between her and Ying Yue He before they parted ways. 

All she wanted to do was bury her head in sand.

But the news changed everything. Taiga  chose to let the fire burn within her happily as she escaped out the window and leapt to the ground floor. 

Whether the man wanted to see her or not, Taiga was set on coming back. 

"...Taiga could have just taken a bus, you know?"

The tea sommelier left the milk tea shop with nothing more than a huff. She liked to think that she had mellowed out now that she was about to turn thirty in a couple of months, but it seemed like there was still a certain fierceness to her steps.

Bo Lifen strutted down the streets with nothing but her next stop in mind. She obviously had other places to go to besides visiting her brother, work, visiting her great-grandmother and then coming home—

Ding!

The woman quickly pulled out her phone and found herself somewhat disappointed that it was just from a social networking app of hers. Bo Lifen still found herself scrolling temporarily by almost instinct and hating every moment of it.

"Geez, quit posting pictures of couple stuff, damnit." Her fingers paused on an advertisement. "Or that stupid dating app. Damn companies trying to get me to date, quit stealing my information!"

And yet this was all just silly blabber.

Bo Lifen nearly hit herself with said phone because she was expecting some kind of answer from him—despite the months that slipped by—but then proceeded to shake her head. Bo Lifen made it a point to enjoy her weekend.

This woman actually learned a thing or two about taking a break.

And although Bo Lifen may actually end up trying to make the man visit her brother's shop—it was on a purely business standpoint.

Somewhere else, a dearly beloved idol finally managed to catch a break and quickly shut down the television screen. A certain grumble sounded in her lips as she stared at the visage of a handsome man coming down the plane.

He looked a little bit stunned from the onset of people, but more than that, it seemed like Li Yang was trying to swat the stupid Panda floating across his shoulder. 

The Mermaid could see the creature clearly and even heard the comments it was making. The urge to roll her eyes at the sight of a man being bothered by such a creature was slightly amusing to her.

And yet despite Bai Minghua's concert last night, somehow, Li Yang actually received more screen time than Bai Minghua.

"Well, who would have thought of that?" A snicker escaped her lips. The Mermaid relaxed in her water sofa bed, but then she stared back at a floating screen with bemusement. 

"I'm sure the reason as to why he didn't contact me is because he knows I was busy—I… I wouldn't drop the concert on the fly just to see him, would I? I mean I could have arranged something… but, only because I'm pitying him and I feel bad for him."

Bai Minghua slapped her face.

Even she wouldn't believe such nonsense that came from her lips.

"Feeling bad for a guy who's supposedly cursed with this weird floating screen—I mean, it's a nuisance."

Bai Minghua tried to forget the embarrassing moment when she started panicking and calling him about said screen when it first appeared. It was something that she thankfully managed to adapt to easily, but she really lost her cool.

The Mermaid who was all alone found herself talking, almost as if she was vlogging and just talking with one of her followers online. 

Bai Minghua stretched and yawned. She lazily leaned back against her bed and scratched her leg absentmindedly. 

"This floating thing is a nuisance, and the fact that I'm in his harem so he can live is weird. But when he also happens to be one of the richest guys, handsome and… it's only fair in terms of karma that not everything is going well in his life, you know? Unless he were a saint of some sort."

Bai Minghua buried her head into her bed and groaned.

It didn't seem fair that when a person was sometimes absent in your life, one either did two things: Moving on or clinging to the past.

The sound of heavy water fell and struck down like thunder.

In a remote place unknown to many was a natural waterfall. The waters rushed and met the river at an alarming and speedy rate enough to possibly knock out a normal man alive from the sheer water pressure of it all.

If a company were to find it, then perhaps a hydro-power plant could have been established then and there. Something like this could have made a difference in terms of the renewable energy management.

But instead, it was currently preoccupied by someone.

This was used exclusively for her own solo training. The woman was drenched from head to toe with a concentration of energy that might have stunned cultivators. 

The loose white cloth currently wrapped around her breasts were soaked and nearly looked like it was about to come off.  Her brown shorts were incredibly wet as well as the woman stood up and stepped away from the smooth stone she was cultivating in.

Short and slightly chopped off dark hair came above shoulder-length. Her neck and shoulders were damp and wet—she practically looked like she might have stepped out of the shower. 

Her skin glistened with beads of water.

And yet there was a certain glow and certainty in her eyes. 

"Phew."

What exactly was on the next step on becoming the most reliable cultivator for Ying Yue He this time? Only becoming a reliable secretary wasn't enough anymore.

Author's Note: I may have saved the best for last by showing off Ying Yue He's activities while Li Yang was gone? I am once again biased in this assessment. Now I'm a bit conflicted on who I like more… but thankfully this is a harem. *cue dancing noises* Anyway, hm, the start did show some family drama… but man, the gang's all getting back together! (I swear, only I get my own references) Thanks for reading the chapter!
