As Wang Chao looked at the prescription, he furrowed his brows and stared at Liu Yifei, asking, "Are you still researching this?"
He could see that the dark energy at Liu Yifei's brow was becoming more intense.
It was the ominous aura carried by the parchment scrolls that had affected Liu Yifei, causing her to be entangled in karma.
If Liu Yifei persisted in studying the content of the scrolls, once the dark energy accumulated to a certain degree, she would be in grave danger.
"Of course, I went through great efforts to obtain these ancient prescriptions. How could I easily give up?" Liu Yifei glanced at Wang Chao and said, "Stop with the useless talk and help me figure out how to combine these prescriptions."
"Our department is a bunch of idiots. We've been researching for days and still haven't made any progress."
Wang Chao glanced at the parchment scrolls and the translated document, then said in a solemn voice, "That stuff is not important right now. The dark energy at your brow is the most important thing."
"Wait here for a moment."
He took out his phone and dialed a number, "Mr. Gao, do you still have top-quality jade over there? I need a small piece of Hetian jade, price is not an issue, quality is the main concern."
"Yes." Mr. Gao's voice came from the phone.
"Can you deliver it to me within forty minutes? I'm at the Security Department of Danfeng Group."
"No problem."
"Okay, thanks. I'll make the payment once it's delivered."
After hanging up the phone, Wang Chao put down his phone and looked at Liu Yifei with a serious expression, "Just record the content of those parchment scrolls for now. Eventually, find an opportunity to return them."
"Otherwise, there will be serious consequences."
"I told you last time that within three days, you would encounter a bloody disaster. Haven't you experienced it?"
As he spoke, his gaze fell on Liu Yifei's waist.
"I have experienced it." Liu Yifei's eyes flashed with a hint of fear and panic.
Last time, when she invited Wang Chao to her home to study the prescriptions on the parchment scrolls, Shen Bing was also present.
At that time, Wang Chao had mentioned that the parchment scrolls were ominous objects, and she would face a bloody disaster within three days if she came into contact with their aura.
She didn't believe it at the time, but after those three days, she did experience a bloody disaster.
She was walking on the road when two robbers on bikes snatched her purse.
The robbers had a knife, and while trying to cut the belt of her purse, they accidentally cut her waist, causing blood to flow. She had to go to the hospital and receive seven stitches.
The doctor even said that if the wound had been two centimeters deeper, it could have injured her kidneys, and the treatment wouldn't have been as simple as stitching the wound. She might have needed hospitalization.
Before this incident, she didn't believe Wang Chao's words, but after experiencing it herself, she started to believe in this so-called metaphysics.
"I have experienced it, but you still cling to the parchment scrolls?" Wang Chao sighed.
"But these prescriptions are really good, and I can't bear to let them go." Liu Yifei pouted.
She had gone through a life-threatening experience to obtain these ancient prescriptions. If she had to take another risk to return them, she simply couldn't bear it and was unwilling to do so.
Wang Chao's expression turned grave as he said in a deep voice, "Can't bear to? This is a matter of life and death for you. Once the dark energy at your brow reaches a certain level, you will die."
Liu Yifei looked at Wang Chao, her eyes cunning and fearless, and said, "Don't you still exist? You can tell if I have misfortune clinging to me, and surely you have a solution, right?"
Wang Chao glanced at her and said, "Are you treating me like a Taoist priest or something?"
Liu Yifei's eyes brightened at his words.
She knew that Wang Chao was highly capable and would surely be able to help her.
She looked smug and said, "Well, we're on the same side, aren't we? Big Brother Wang Chao, right?"
"Consider me convinced by you. Later, I'll make a protective jade for you. Carry it with you." Wang Chao said.
Liu Yifei suddenly realized that Wang Chao had bought the jade earlier for this purpose.
She was moved and said, "Thank you."
After a pause, she pushed the parchment scrolls and the translated document in front of Wang Chao and smiled, "Come on, take a look at this and decipher it."
Wang Chao frowned deeply but ultimately couldn't resist her, so he picked up the translated document to probe it.
The two of them chatted and laughed in the office, creating an incredibly harmonious and friendly atmosphere.
Outside the office, Little Wang, Wang Hongyao, and others watched this scene, stunned.
"Oh my, what's going on? Liu Yifei, who used to scorn all men, is suddenly so kind to our department head?"
"They're chatting and laughing together. Judging by the looks of it, they have a good relationship. Could it be that they're together?"
"It's very possible. Look, Liu Yifei's gaze toward us is cold as ice, but when she looks at our department head, it's gentle and affectionate, with a smile in her eyes."
"Has the sun risen from the west?"
"Our department head is amazing!"
"No doubt about that. Our department head is a genius who surpasses even the Li family, and he's a favorite of President Shen. He must be incredible!"
The onlookers observed the two of them, their faces filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment, and they discussed among themselves.
Liu Yifei was notorious for being difficult and cold. Every time security guards patrolled the R&D department, she would drag them in for experiments. Those who refused would get beaten up, earning her the reputation of a witch in their eyes.
Now, Liu Yifei was getting along so well with Wang Chao, with a smile on her face, which amazed and bewildered everyone. At this moment, their admiration for Wang Chao reached new heights.
Thirty minutes later, a delivery person from the jade market arrived and personally delivered the jade to Wang Chao's doorstep.
"Thank you."
After receiving the jade, Wang Chao prepared to pay.
However, the delivery person stopped him and uttered with a smile, "Mr. Wang, you're now the VIP of our jade market. Our boss, Mr. Gao, instructed that this jade is a gift for you, no payment required."
"Alright, please thank him for me."
"And you made a special trip, so here, take these 200 yuan. Thank you."
In the end, Wang Chao still handed 200 yuan to the delivery person.
Though it was a small amount of money, the delivery person felt cared for and touched. After accepting the money, he expressed his gratitude repeatedly before hurriedly leaving.
After inspecting the jade, Wang Chao found that its quality was indeed excellent, with abundant spiritual energy. He closed the door, engraved a formation into the jade, infused it with his purest true energy, activated the formation, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. He picked up a red string from the drawer, threaded it through the jade, and handed it to Liu Yifei, saying, "There you go, hold on to it."
"Remember, you must carry it with you at all times, even when bathing."
Liu Yifei took the jade, feeling its chilling touch.
As soon as she held it, a wave of cold power source swept through her body, shocking her senses. Her mind became clear in an instant, and things that she could not understand before seemed to make sense now.
What a great item!
Liu Yifei looked at the protective jade in her hand, her eyes shining.
She could sense that this protective jade was particularly powerful. If she could keep wearing it, it would definitely be of great help to her in the future.
"Put it on," Wang Chao said.
"Brother Wang, I really like this gift. Thank you."
Liu Yifei put on the protective jade, her stimulation evident. She embraced Wang Chao tightly, kissed him passionately.
