The security guard at Shengshi Pharmaceuticals was a fan of Lin Xuan.
He felt that Lin Xuan was simply a god, absolutely badass.
However, he also knew that Lin Xuan and his company's chairman were practically enemies.
Although he really wanted to let Lin Xuan into the company, he was afraid of losing his job.
"Young Master Lin," the security guard said awkwardly. "Um, I'm really sorry, but I can't just let you in."
Lin Xuan spoke up, "Just tell your chairman. I think he will let me in to see him."
Lin Li had always wanted to show off and exhale his pent-up frustrations in front of him.
Now, his company had successfully developed the medicine and vaccines for the epidemic.
This meant a profit in the hundreds of billions.
Lin Li definitely wouldn't miss such an opportunity to flaunt his success.
"Alright." The security guard nodded and called Lin Li.
"Why is Lin Xuan here?" Lin Li frowned deeply.
However, even if Lin Xuan came to the company, he figured the guy couldn't make any waves.
Besides, his company was thriving now.
He wanted Lin Xuan to witness his success with his own eyes.
He was very much looking forward to the spectacular expression on Lin Xuan's face.
A smug smile appeared on Lin Li's face.
He curled his lips and said, "Let him in."
"Yes, Chairman."
The security guard hung up the phone and said, "Young Master Lin, our chairman says you can go in."
"Okay."
Lin Xuan and his group stepped into the Shengshi Pharmaceuticals building.
Lin Li had just hung up the call with the security guard.
The Lin family group walked into his office.
"Li'er." Jiang Shuqin placed the food she had brought on Lin Li's desk and took out everything from the insulated lunch box.
"Li'er, Mom cooked all of these for you personally. You must be hungry, eat up," Jiang Shuqin said.
Lin Li frowned.
The food Jiang Shuqin cooked was terrible, yet she especially loved cooking.
He was sick to his stomach from eating her food.
Soon.
Very soon, he would be able to launder the Lin family's money and make it his own.
When that time came, he wouldn't have to endure the Lin family anymore.
No.
He didn't want to endure them even now.
"I'm not eating, take it away." Lin Li pushed the lunch box away.
Jiang Shuqin said with concern, "Li'er, Mom knows you are very busy with work, but how can you not eat? Just have a little."
"I said I'm not eating, are you deaf?"
Lin Li roared impatiently.
He swept his hand forcefully.
"Clatter."
The lunch boxes fell to the floor, spilling rice and various dishes all over the ground.
Jiang Shuqin froze.
Why was Li'er losing his temper so badly today?
Hadn't Li'er never lost his temper with his mother before?
Jiang Shuqin began to comfort herself again.
However, Li'er had been too busy with work lately and was stressed out.
It was normal that he couldn't control his temper.
"Clap, clap, clap—"
Lin Xuan walked in, clapping his hands.
"What a great show."
Seeing Lin Xuan, Jiang Shuqin's face instantly turned cold.
"Lin Xuan, what are you doing here? You are not welcome here, get out!"
Jiang Shuqin pointed toward the door.
Lin Xuan curled his lips and said, "Ms. Jiang, don't be in such a hurry to kick me out. It was your good son who let us in."
Jiang Shuqin frowned. "Li'er let you in? How is that possible?"
"That's right, I let them in," Lin Li spoke up.
Jiang Shuqin grabbed Lin Li's arm and frowned, "Li'er, why did you let Lin Xuan come over? Aren't you just asking for trouble?"
"How could I be the one in trouble this time?" Lin Li smirked. "I just wanted my good brother to witness my success."
Seeing the expression on Lin Li's face, the three Lin sisters felt he looked entirely like a stranger.
Li'er had always, no matter what happened, respected Lin Xuan as his brother.
Why did he have such an expression now?
He gave off the vibe of a petty person drunk on success...
"Lin Xuan." Lin Li walked up to Lin Xuan and spread his arms wide.
"Do you see this? This is the empire I, Lin Li, have built. Through this epidemic, I can become a massive pharmaceutical company worth hundreds of billions. Even if you have Su Hua and the Jiang family backing you, so what? You still have to watch my company grow helplessly, unable to do a thing."
"Then congratulations," Lin Xuan smiled faintly.
Seeing Lin Xuan's calm demeanor, Lin Li felt like he had punched cotton again.
However, Lin Xuan must be faking it again this time.
Lin Xuan was hell-bent on crushing him, making sure he could never turn his life around.
But now, not only had he turned things around, but he had also founded such a huge pharmaceutical company.
How could Lin Xuan still be so calm?
"Lin Xuan," Lin Li sneered. "I know, I know you just look like you don't care on the surface, but deep down, you must be agonizing over it, agonizing over the fact that I can rise again."
He had the dreams of his past life.
Having such a cheat code, generally speaking, meant he was the protagonist of a novel.
He, Lin Li! Would also become the protagonist of this world!
A protagonist who rises on his own, without relying on any backers!
Lin Xuan smiled and shook his head. "Lin Li, you really have quite the active imagination."
"Lin Xuan, do you dare say that's not what you're thinking?" Lin Li retorted.
The three Lin sisters were still staring blankly at Lin Li.
Lin Qingxiu frowned and said, "Eldest Sister, Second Sister, why do I feel like this version of Li'er looks like a stranger?"
Lin Qingyan nodded in agreement. "I feel the same. I feel like I barely know Li'er anymore."
She had a feeling that this version of Li'er was the real him, and the previous Li'er was just an act.
Jiang Shuqin heard their conversation.
She scolded them in a low voice, "What are you talking about? Lin Xuan caused Li'er to suffer so much before. Isn't it perfectly normal for Li'er to react to him this way now?"
On the contrary, Jiang Shuqin felt very gratified with the current Lin Li.
Li'er had finally stopped treating Lin Xuan as a brother.
From now on, Li'er wouldn't feel pain and sorrow because of Lin Xuan's heartless actions.
"Lin Li, oh Lin Li," Lin Xuan smirked. "Are you really so certain that you can rise up by relying on this epidemic?"
Lin Li sneered, "What else?"
Lin Xuan said, "Lin Li, my main purpose in coming to your company today is to tell all of you something."
Hearing Lin Xuan's words, Lin Li's heart skipped a beat.
A strong sense of unease welled up in his heart.
What was Lin Xuan trying to do?
"Lin Xuan, this is my territory. Don't even think about making waves here!" Lin Li warned coldly.

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
