Liu Yifei beamed, very unhappy.
She had gone to great lengths to decipher the prescription, not just for herself, or so that she could make a big splash at tomorrow's board meeting with Shen Bing.
As a result, Shen Bing and Wang Chao both ran away, making her furious.
"Next time if you guys ask me, I'll never say anything again!"
Liu Yifei stomped her foot and glared at Wang Chao and the others, her eyes upset to the extreme.
Suddenly, she seemed to think of something and her eyes became even more puzzled, "Why do I feel that the two of them are very different from before?"
"The movements are all so synchronized, this is too tacit understanding, right?"
"Also, who are those two people who just followed them? It seems like they're both raw faces, never seen before."
She thought hard, but in the end she couldn't figure out who Zhou Xinghe and Zhao Liying really were.
She was so puzzled that she simply did not continue to think about it, but continued to devote herself to her research.
Inside her world, there was only the matter of studying ancient dan recipes.
Only after she had studied and understood all the ancient dan recipes, her ability level would go to the next level.
At that time, she would most likely win the Nobel Prize, and that would be the absolute best encouragement and recognition!
"I want to stand in front of the whole world and explain one thing to the world, we, Chinese medicine, are the most powerful!"
Liu Yifei stared at the experimental equipment, her eyes glowing with excitement.
Wang Chao said goodbye to Shen Bing and went to the Security Department.
Zhou Xinghe originally wanted to go to the security department with Wang Chao, but he was kicked over by Wang Chao, leaving him to join Zhao Liying and protect Shen Bing.
Shen Dongshan had a lot of guts, and also dared to have someone assassinate him, and probably wanted to have someone assassinate Shen Bing as well.
He is very strong and invulnerable to all kinds of poisons, so he is not afraid of real bullets, open fire and hidden arrows at all.
However, Shen Bing is a woman, how can she compete with those people in Shen Dongshan, it is safer to have the protection of Zhao Liying and Zhou Xinghe.
Wang Chao walked inside the corridor towards the security department, while walking, he took out his cell phone and looked at the information on WeChat.
It's okay if you don't look, but when you look, you get a headache.
Wang Zuxian, Liu Shishi, Zhang Min, Yang Mi and others all sent a large number of messages, and Yang Mi's messages alone sent more than 50 messages.
Among them were also two dozen messages from Xue Yi Yi, messages from Pei Dong Hu and Song He Nian.
Dense message reminders!
"These messages, should I reply?"
Wang Chao scratched the back of his head, feeling a bit torn.
He had never expected that just by not using WeChat for one night, he would receive so many messages.
Just as he was about to reply one by one, Chen Yong sent a message, "Boss, why haven't you arrived yet? I'm ready."
"Wait for me for a while, you go out first and come back in an hour."
Wang Chao replied to Chen Yong's message promptly, then walked while replying to Wang Zuxian and the others, explaining why he hadn't replied to their messages.
Just as he finished replying, before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, Yang Mi sent another message, "I've finished shooting tonight, so tired. It would be such a pleasure if someone could invite me for a foot bath, movie, or dinner right now."
Wang Chao didn't know how to reply to that statement for a moment.
It was clear from Yang Mi's words that she wanted him to treat her to a meal or invite her to hang out.
However, he had things to do and no time to go out.
Wang Zuxian then sent a selfie.
The photo was taken after exercise, wearing a particularly cool yoga outfit, revealing a professional and beautiful set of abdominal muscles.
Beautiful, captivating to the eyes!
"This figure is truly perfect."
"These long legs are probably among the top in the entertainment industry. I really don't know which man she will marry in the future. I envy the man who gets her."
As Wang Chao looked at the photo, these thoughts immediately came to his mind.
Wang Zuxian was indeed incredibly beautiful. Even Wang Chao, who had been with countless women, felt his heart race a little when he saw this picture.
"Just finished exercising. Are you free for dinner tonight? I want to take a walk by the Zhu River." Wang Zuxian sent a message, with a mischievous emoji at the end.
"Just returned from the sea. I have some things to take care of these two days and can't make it. Let's meet in two days." Wang Chao replied.
"Okay, see you in two days." Wang Zuxian replied.
Wang Chao was about to put away his phone when Wang Zuxian sent another message, "By the way, fifteen days from now is the day Sikong Yun is crowned as king. I've been invited as a guest and I have an extra spot. Do you want to come with me?"
"Sikong Yun being crowned as king? What is that?" Wang Chao looked puzzled and replied.
"You don't even know about this?"
Wang Zuxian sent an expression of confusion and said, "Dragon Kingdom's Great King, Sikong Yun, expanded the borders by conquering Grey Eagle Country, Giant Snake Country, Grey Wolf Country, and many others. He has made numerous achievements and expanded the map of Dragon Kingdom to new territories."
"The Lord of Dragon Kingdom was pleased and personally conferred upon him the title of Martial King to oversee the southern provinces."
"This is a major event that has shocked the entire country. The ceremony to crown him has been in preparation for half a year, located near Haixinsha. How could you not know?"
As she spoke, she sent a picture of a young man wearing battle armor, looking handsome, confident, and full of vitality.
Upon seeing the photo, Wang Chao suddenly realized.
He had some impression of Sikong Yun.
Two years ago, during an overseas battlefield, he had a brief encounter with Sikong Yun. At that time, Wang Chao already felt that the young man had great potential, so he taught him some martial arts techniques.
He never imagined that Sikong Yun would grow to this extent, achieving the position of Great King. He truly was an extraordinary genius.
Being crowned as king and ruling over the southern provinces!
If this achievement were in ancient times, it would undoubtedly be a tremendous feat of expanding territories, reaching the pinnacle of all military commanders!
At this moment, Wang Zuxian sent another message asking, "Would you like to accompany me to the coronation ceremony in half a month?"
Faced with Wang Zuxian's invitation, Wang Chao pondered for a moment before replying, "Let's see how things go. I'm busy with something for now."
After replying, he put away his phone and hurriedly walked towards the security department.
Whoever was being crowned as king had nothing to do with him.
At the moment, he only wanted to resolve the matter with Shen Dongshan as soon as possible, firmly establish Shen Bing's position, and gain the maximum power in the Shen family.
"Support Shen Bing, strengthen ties with the Zhao family, and then give Lafayette a little pressure. That should be enough."
Wang Chao thought as he walked.
He didn't know when his master would assign him a mission, and now he had offended many people because of various things.
When he was in Canton City, those people would definitely not dare to retaliate openly.
However, if one day he were to leave, and if those people held grudges and sought revenge, being far away wouldn't be of much help.
At such times, the deterrence of the Shen and Zhao families would make those people hesitate.
"But in the end, relying on these two families as allies is just external support. I still need to rely on my own strength."
"While supporting external allies, I should also train Wang Bin and Wang Cheng properly after resolving this matter. They should learn boxing and breathing techniques from their old man."
As Wang Chao thought, he quickly returned to the security department.
At this time, some security guards in the department had finished their patrols and were sitting at their positions, drinking tea and chatting.
As Wang Chao entered, Little Wang came forward and said, "Boss, where did you go so early in the morning? Chen Yong has been looking for you several times."
"What does he want with me?" Wang Chao asked.
Little Wang looked at Wang Chao, hesitated for a moment, and stopped himself from speaking further.
In the end, Little Wang gritted his teeth and mustered up the courage to say, "Boss, I know I shouldn't interfere in this matter, but Chen Yong has been a long-time employee here."
"Perhaps he acted impulsively and wanted to take your things. Maybe he's going through a difficult time."
"But I've been with Chen Yong for a long time, and I don't think he's a bad person. I'm begging you, please give him a chance to turn over a new leaf, can you?"
As he spoke, Little Wang looked at Wang Chao with pleading eyes.
"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Wang Chao's gaze turned cold as he stared at Little Wang.
"I... I wouldn't dare." Little Wang's expression changed, and he quickly responded.
"If you do not dare, then focus on doing your job and don't meddle in other affairs." Wang Chao's tone was cold.
After speaking, he brushed past Little Wang and walked into his office.
Many security guards on the scene had wanted to persuade Wang Chao, but after witnessing his scolding of Little Wang, their expressions changed, and they didn't dare to approach anymore.
With a cold face, Wang Chao entered his office, closed the door, and made himself a cup of tea.
"What's going on? Boss used to be good to us. Why has he become so serious and ruthless?"
"Perhaps Chen Yong crossed Boss's bottom line. Breaking into the office and taking the leader's things privately, that's a big taboo."
"Chen Yong was indeed in the wrong in this matter. But having Boss make him kneel down and serve tea in front of everyone seems a bit harsh and excessive."
"What do you all know? Boss is giving Chen Yong a chance to turn over a new leaf."
"I don't know why, but I always feel like Boss is a bit hypocritical. It seems like his previous kindness towards us was just a fa?ade, and now he's so cold and heartless towards Chen Yong. If we make a mistake in the future, do we have to kneel down for him too?"
The crowd looked at Wang Chao, discussing among themselves.
Many people's gaze towards Wang Chao had changed. They no longer held the admiration and respect they had before, but instead showed more disgust, indifference, and wariness.
Previously, Wang Chao had been very good to them, providing money and training. Although it was tiring, they all benefited from it. Their physical fitness had improved, and they received praise from their wives.
As a result, they had always been grateful to Wang Chao.
Now, seeing how Wang Chao treated Chen Yong, forcing him to kneel and humiliating him, it left them feeling cold.
A security guard named Zhou Hong hid among the crowd, observing their discussions. A hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
He took out his phone, pretending to play with it, and sent a message to Shen Dongshan, "The plan is going well. Our colleagues have changed their view of Wang Chao, and there are strong opinions against him."
Soon, Shen Dongshan replied, "Bring Chen Yong back immediately and execute the poisoning plan."
"Understood."
The security guard put away his phone, smirked, and looked in the direction of Wang Chao with a triumphant gaze. "Wang Chao, dare to oppose our President Shen, this time you've dug your own grave."
Thinking about Wang Chao's death and how he would be highly valued by Shen Dongshan, he felt delighted.
Wang Hongyao took a sip of tea, his expression calm, and said to Little Wang and the others, "In fact, you should have realized something long ago. Throughout history, leaders are leaders. They can never treat their subordinates as equals."
"Wang Chao may be a junior and approachable, but that does not mean he's not a leader."
"If he wants to maintain the dignity of his leadership, he will definitely take action against subordinates."
"Don't try to persuade him anymore. Just watch and try not to make mistakes in the future. Otherwise, Chen Yong will be our fate."
As he spoke, he looked at Wang Chao in the office, his eyes filled with envy.
There was a time when he dreamed of becoming a leader, guiding others and controlling many security guards.
For that, he had worked hard, given gifts, and showcased himself, trying to perform exceptionally well. But then He Xingdong was appointed directly, and he lost hope.
Finally, after enduring until He Xingdong was ousted, Wang Chao rose to the top.
After living for half a lifetime, he had finally understood.
Being a leader was not about ability; it was about connections.
"What does it feel like to be a leader? I really desire to experience it," Wang Hongyao thought to himself.
While the crowd was in heated discussion, Chen Yong appeared at the office door and walked in.
"Chen Yong."
Little Wang quickly went up to greet him, apologizing profusely, "I could not convince him. You should leave quickly. Although work is important, dignity is even more crucial."
Chen Yong nodded slightly and said, "Thank you. But I'd rather lose my dignity than live in poverty!"
"Without this job, our whole family would be left with nothing."
After speaking, he walked past Little Wang and went to the tea area in the security department, made tea, and then knelt in front of Wang Chao's office, loudly saying, "Minister Wang, I was wrong. Following your words, I've come to offer tea and apologize. Please, in your magnanimity, forgive me this time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Chao walked out, looking down at Chen Yong from above. "Where did you go wrong?"
"I shouldn't have entered your office and taken things without permission. I beg Minister Wang for forgiveness." Chen Yong respectfully raised his teacup.
"Heh, in light of your realization, I won't hold it against you today."
Wang Chao coldly glanced at Chen Yong, lifted his teacup, finished it in one gulp, and then uttered in a cold voice, "But if there's a next time, I won't be lenient."
Zhou Hong stood in the crowd, recording everything with his phone. When he saw Wang Chao drinking the poisoned tea, he became even more ecstatic and quickly sent the video to Shen Dongshan.
"President Shen, Wang Chao drank the tea. He's done for!"
