Butler Wang smiled and said, "We must be fully prepared."
Lei Hui nodded, "Butler Wang, I have to say, the sunflower seeds you prepared are really good. You truly have foresight."
Snacking on these seeds definitely elevates the joy of watching a good show.
Lin Li walked up to Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow.
Tsk tsk tsk, looking at the smug expression on Lin Li's face, it seemed he was actively offering himself up to be humiliated again.
"Lin Li, Chairman Lin of Shengshi Pharmaceuticals, what brings you to me?" Lin Xuan asked, raising his brow.
Lin Li said, "Lin Xuan, I know your purpose for coming here today. It's nothing more than to let the Lin family see my true colors, so that my relationship with them will be completely destroyed."
"You're doing this because you see you can't bring down my company, so you want to use other means to make me suffer. It's a pity, but your wishful thinking has fallen through."
"You never expected that I don't care about the Lin family at all. The Lin family are nothing but stepping stones for me to climb up."
Lin Xuan curled his lips and said, "Lin Li, I didn't expose all this to target you. The people I am targeting are the Lin family."
"I want to make them wish they were dead, and I also want them to see exactly what kind of trash the son and brother they've spoiled for so many years really is."
"So, my goal has been achieved."
Lin Li let out a laugh, "Lin Xuan, you're just being stubborn again."
Lin Xuan shook his head.
He found that this Lin Li really, really loved to overthink things.
"Lin Li, I don't need to use this method to make you suffer. I have other ways to bring you pain," Lin Xuan said.
"Heh."
Lin Li sneered, "Lin Xuan, you really are full of whimsical ideas. I don't care about family ties, nor do I have any women I care for. All I care about is money and power. Now that Shengshi Pharmaceuticals has been developed by me, through this epidemic, our Shengshi Pharmaceuticals will definitely become the largest medical company in the entire Xia Country in one fell swoop."
"I will also make a fortune. Lin Xuan, are you trying to say that you can target my company and make it go bankrupt?"
Lin Xuan raised his eyebrow and said, "Lin Li, haven't you ever doubted Lei Liming?"
"Lei Liming?"
Lin Li frowned deeply.
Suddenly, he laughed.
"Lei Liming is the main research force for my pharmaceutical development. Lin Xuan, I know what your goal is. You want to make me suspicious of Lei Liming, sow discord between us, and then take advantage of the vulnerability to poach him away."
"I have to say, Lin Xuan, this really is a good scheme. But unfortunately, it is impossible for me to fall for your trick."
Lin Xuan raised his eyebrow, "Lin Li, do you believe that this Lei Liming has already run away?"
Lin Li sneered, "Lin Xuan, you really have been monitoring my company all along, knowing that Lei Liming left."
"However, Lin Xuan, Lei Liming didn't just go anywhere; he went to take care of his bedridden, seriously ill mother."
"Oh, is that so?" A smile appeared on the corners of Lin Xuan's lips. "Lin Li, do you want to call Lei Liming and see if you can still contact him now?"
"Fine, I'll call him."
Lin Li sneered.
"If Lei Liming answers, I'd like to see what else you have to say, Lin Xuan!"
Lin Li dialed Lei Liming's number.
The phone rang a few times.
A mechanical female voice came from the phone.
[Sorry, the number you have dialed is powered off. Please try again later.]
Lin Li frowned.
"How could this be? Lei Liming's phone has never been turned off. Why wouldn't he answer?"
A surge of panic rose in Lin Li's heart.
Lin Xuan raised his eyebrow and said, "Well? Lin Li, did your capable assistant fail to answer the phone?"
Lin Li gritted his teeth and said, "Lei Liming not answering the phone, what does that prove? Maybe he was taking care of his mother and forgot to charge his phone, so it just ran out of battery."
"Lin Xuan, let me tell you, don't think that a few words from you can make me distrust Lei Liming."
Lei Liming also had no reason to leave.
The company's specific drug for stomach cancer, the medicine for treating the epidemic, and the vaccines were all developed by Lei Liming.
Why would he leave?
Besides, the compensation he gave Lei Liming was not low. Having made money from this epidemic, Lei Liming would receive a huge dividend when the time came.
There was no reason for Lei Liming to walk away from these dividends.
Lin Xuan asked, "Lin Li, I remember Lei Liming is from Huzhou, right? His mother also lives in Huzhou."
"So what?" Lin Li asked in return.
"You said Lei Liming left this time to take care of his bedridden, seriously ill mother. Then why was his destination abroad?"
"Here are the flight tickets he bought, along with his boarding photos."
Lin Xuan took out the tickets and a few photos, tossing them onto Lin Li.
Lin Li hurriedly picked them up to look.
The flight ticket was actually for the afternoon of the very day he had asked for some time off.
Furthermore, Lei Liming had truly boarded the plane.
"What on earth is going on?" Lin Li's heart beat uneasily.
Lin Xuan curled his lips and said, "Lin Li, let me tell you why."
"Because the drugs Lei Liming researched are all fake. Your company's specific drug for stomach cancer, as well as the epidemic treatments and vaccines, are all fake. He was afraid the truth would come to light, so he fled in advance."
"No, impossible."
Lin Li roared at Lin Xuan, "How could it be like what you said? In the dream I had, Lei Liming was a prominent figure in the medical field! How could he produce fake drugs?"
"What a coincidence." Lin Xuan curled his lips and said, "It just so happens that I also had a dream. The first part of my dream was similar to yours. Lei Liming did indeed develop many miracle drugs and enjoyed great fame. It's just that, later on, Lei Liming was arrested. He was arrested for selling fake drugs."
"No, impossible." Lin Li paled, shaking his head as he said, "Lin Xuan, it can't possibly be like what you said."
He had had such a dream.
Then he was the protagonist of this world.
If the research on this drug failed, then he would completely lose any chance to turn his life around in this lifetime.
Since he was the protagonist of this world, how could he possibly have no chance to turn things around?
Lin Xuan must be trying to use these words to sow discord.
No.
He couldn't fall for Lin Xuan's trick!
"Lin Xuan." Lin Li calmed his emotions a bit and continued speaking, "Don't think you can deceive me with these seemingly true words. Let me tell you, I know your true colors very well, so it is impossible for me to fall for your trick."
"Give up."
Butler Wang shook his head and spoke up, "Lin Li, it seems you still don't understand our Young Master Lin's temper."
"Think about it carefully. When has our Young Master Lin ever lied?"
Therefore, what Young Master Lin just said must be true.
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.
