Chapter 551: Chapter 546: When Did She Awaken Her Superpower?
The investment conference in Beizhou officially began as people arrived one after another.
Over three days, 100 research project results were displayed, dazzling the representatives of companies from all continents, each wanting them.
Especially the primary nutritional capsule, it almost made the companies go red-eyed with competition.
Previously, instigated by Chang Ru, Bai Group was excluded by some companies from Hua Continent, who even engaged in malicious bidding or price raising, causing Bai Family to lose several project investments.
"Brother Yu Sen, you let me win."
In front of display table number 36, Chang Ru successfully signed a cooperation agreement, turned around, and smilingly said to the late-arriving Bai Yusen.
Bai Xiaotang, standing beside, was almost exploding with anger. She didn’t understand business matters, but she knew Chang Ru.
With Chang Ru’s malice towards her, she would definitely sell Bai Family’s information to other competitors, thereby sabotaging Bai Family’s desired project investments.
Now, Bai Family has consecutively lost three or four projects they had previously set their sights on. How could it be possible without her involvement?
Bai Yusen stopped Bai Xiaotang who wanted to speak out against Chang Ru, calmly said, "You win."
Chang Ru watched the Bai siblings leave, feeling a sense of satisfaction in her chest.
"Brother, why did you let her win? She’s such a lowlife." Bai Xiaotang’s eyes were round with fury, her cheeks puffed up.
Bai Yusen flicked her forehead, calmly said, "Can’t keep your cool already?"
"But they’re specifically targeting the projects you set your sights on."
"Not very interested anyway."
Bai Xiaotang was puzzled, just about to ask more, saw her brother already walking towards a foreigner, "You go find Xiao Yang, I’m going to meet a friend."
Bai Xiaotang stomped her foot, about to take out her Smart Brain to call Lin Yuanyang.
Suddenly—
She was pushed hard, causing Bai Xiaotang to stagger forward for several steps, the Smart Brain in her hand directly fell out.
"You..."
Bai Xiaotang turned around angrily and saw a foreign continent man.
"Sorry, pretty lady, I accidentally bumped into you just now, are you alright?"
The foreign man was very handsome, his flax-colored hair soft and loose, a pair of gray-blue eyes seemed to carry a deep pool of affection, making one hurriedly avert their gaze, feeling shy.
Bai Xiaotang shook her head lightly, softly said, "I’m fine."
She turned around to pick up the fallen Smart Brain screen, suddenly found it missing.
"Where’s my Smart Brain?"
"Pretty lady, do you need my help?"
Bai Xiaotang anxiously asked, "Did you see the Smart Brain that fell here? About four inches, pink casing."
"Sorry, I didn’t notice. But we can check the surveillance."
"Alright."
Bai Xiaotang was about to agree when suddenly a scream came from ahead.
Immediately a figure quickly passed through the crowd, flying towards her, and heavily fell at her feet.
It was a foreign continent man in a suit.
Before she could think more, Fu Yuanxuan’s anxious shout came to her ear.
"Tangtang, be careful—"
Bai Xiaotang reflexively turned sideways, avoided the attack from behind.
The sharp dagger slid past her clothes without hitting.
The panic in Bai Xiaotang’s eyes quickly changed, she squatted down again to avoid the edge of the blade.
The killing intent in the foreign continent man’s eyes intensified, his moves became more fierce, every move aiming for Bai Xiaotang’s throat.
Watching this, everyone’s heart was on edge.
Not far away, Chang Ru’s eyes were filled with shock; she hadn’t expected Bai Xiaotang’s agility to be so adept.
Not only did she dodge everything, but she also took the opportunity to catch the man’s arm, exerting a force, and heard a clear cracking sound—his arm twisted, the knife in his hand fell to the ground with a thud.
Seeing Bai Xiaotang about to subdue the foreign man alone, suddenly a blazing fire emerged from the man’s palm, hitting Bai Xiaotang’s chest directly.
The flame quickly set her clothes on fire, Bai Xiaotang immediately retreated a few steps, vigorously patting the fire on her chest.
"Tangtang—"
Fu Yuanxuan’s face turned pale with fright, raising his hand to summon Water Ability, performed the indoor rain trick in public, drenching Bai Xiaotang immediately.
"Cough cough cough..." Bai Xiaotang was choked by the water, coughing repeatedly.
"Tangtang, are you alright? Are you hurt?"
Fu Yuanxuan quickly ran over, grabbed Bai Xiaotang’s shoulder, carefully inspected, and found the burned holes in her clothes revealing a piece of redness.
"You’re courting death—"
Fu Yuanxuan’s face was filled with killing intent, raised his hand, crackling lightning appeared in his palm.
The foreign continent man’s pupils finally showed fear, he pleaded loudly, "No..."
Just as the lightning was about to be released, a small hand with water droplets grabbed the bronze-colored wrist.
"Brother Fu, don’t kill him, we still need to find out who the mastermind is."
Fu Yuanxuan’s sanity finally returned, looking down at Bai Xiaotang’s injured shoulder again, clenched his fist, dissipating the lightning ball in his palm.
The commotion quickly drew Bai Yusen, who was already worried about his sister’s safety; seeing the scene now, he hurriedly pushed through the crowd, ran over.
"Tangtang, are you hurt?"
Seeing the redness, Bai Yusen directly lifted her up, ready to rush out, "Tangtang, don’t be afraid, brother will take you to Ji Ning now."
"Brother, I’m fine, I can heal myself." Bai Xiaotang helplessly shouted.
Bai Yusen’s footsteps paused, suddenly remembering his sister awakened Healing Ability, put her back down, looking at her wound full of worry.
Bai Xiaotang originally didn’t want to use her ability in public, but seeing her brother and Fu Yuanxuan’s urgent gaze, still gathered a small ball of white light in her palm, pressed it on the scalded area.
"Oh my, she’s actually a Healing Ability user?"
"Isn’t she the Bai Family’s good-for-nothing?"
"When did she awaken her superpower?"
...
This attack was like a farce, quickly appearing and quickly subdued, without causing a disturbance, only making those who witnessed it curious about Bai Xiaotang and Fu Yuanxuan.
Standing among the crowd, Chang Ru’s mind was blank; after seeing Fu Yuanxuan use two kinds of abilities, then Bai Xiaotang using Healing Ability to heal herself, she felt like she was in another world, doubting if the memories from her past life really occurred.
She muddled through the crowd, with a face full of daze.
Until a pair of shiny black leather shoes appeared in front of her.
"Miss Chang, our gentleman invites you—"
***
Bai Xiaotang has just awakened her superpower not long ago, cannot completely heal large-area burns.
After using her ability for a while, she felt her head a bit dizzy, limbs weak.
Fortunately, Fu Yuanxuan acted fast, grabbing her shoulder to steady her body, disregarding gender differences, directly lifting her horizontally.
"I’ll take her to Ji Ning."
"Hey, brat, let go of my sister——"
But Fu Yuanxuan was too fast, Bai Yusen couldn’t catch up.
Making him almost stomping in frustration on the spot.
"Fu Yuanxuan——"
...
After hearing about Bai Xiaotang’s attack at the investment conference, Lin Yuanyang and You Le ran quickly towards the venue.
Mid-run, they saw a black figure swiftly headed their way.
"Tangtang..."
"Move—"
The two quickly cleared the path, a shadow swiftly passed by them.
"Who was that man..."
"Fu Yuanxuan, Bai Xiaotang’s former fiancé. Hurry, Bai Xiaotang might be hurt."
Fu Yuanxuan had clearance for the Hua Continent’s lab bunker, reached the lab unimpeded.
But Ji Ning wasn’t there.
"Uncle Ye, where did Leader Ji go?"
Ye Xingyan glanced at Bai Xiaotang’s wound, said annoyed, "For such a minor injury, you don’t need her? Put her down, let me take a look."
Fu Yuanxuan paused, carefully placed Bai Xiaotang on a nearby chair, worriedly said, "She was burned by Fire Ability..."
"I have eyes. From now on, don’t speak." Ye Xingyan gave him a helpless glance.
Mr. Fu’s grandson, will he be love-struck in the future?
