Xu Mu, Ye Chen, and Fang Chu Gather Together

"Take these too."

Xu Mu took out another red plastic bag from his pocket, which contained over twenty pills.

Jiang Huihui opened the bag and looked at the pills inside. Although they were all black, they varied in size.

One type was about the size of a thumb's fingernail, while the other was only as big as a pinky's fingernail.

"What are these?"

Jiang Huihui asked in confusion.

"The large ones are for healing. For example, if you suffer severe physical trauma or are bleeding heavily, taking one will quickly stop the bleeding and help your body recover."

Xu Mu paused for a moment before explaining, "As for the small ones, they are for replenishing Qi. If a battle drags on and you consume too much Qi energy, these can restore it."

"These are really good stuff. They can save your life in combat."

Jiang Huihui softly sighed in admiration.

[Affection +15]

"This is all I've refined for now. I'll find some time to study the remaining medicinal herbs. Once I refine other types of pills, I'll bring them to you."

Xu Mu smiled at Jiang Huihui.

"Xu Mu..."

Jiang Huihui's usually valiant and heroic face was now covered in a blushing red hue.

"What's wrong?"

Xu Mu asked with a smile.

"I... no, you are my fiancé now, right?"

Jiang Huihui lowered her head, her fingers twiddling nervously.

"Of course."

Xu Mu nodded.

"Hehe, that's good then."

Jiang Huihui broke into a smile. She stuffed the pills into her pocket, hopped onto her electric scooter, and sped off like the wind, shouting, "I'm going on patrol!"

[Affection +30]

Xu Mu watched Jiang Huihui's retreating figure and shook his head slightly.

...

Currently, the sales volume of the Yang Energy Pills produced by the Xu Group had far surpassed that of their weight-loss pills.

Supply was completely failing to meet demand; the moment they hit the market, they were instantly snatched up.

The prices on the secondhand market were already several times the original price.

After all, the effects were undeniable. It was safe to say that this medicine had allowed countless men to regain their status as the head of the household.

Those who used to be meek and submissive facing their fiercely demanding wives...

...had now completely turned the tables.

But just in the past few days, a massive batch of pills called Body Strengthening Pills had suddenly flooded the market.

The described effects were nearly identical to the Xu family's Yang Energy Pills, yet the price was only a third of the Xu family's pills.

Not to mention comparing it to the even more expensive Yang Energy Pills on the secondhand market.

Following that, major internet influencers began releasing review videos and live streams comparing the two drugs.

The conclusion they reached was that the Body Strengthening Pill had the exact same effects as the Yang Energy Pill.

It could equally restore a man's vigor and masculinity.

The packaging box of this Body Strengthening Pill clearly stated the company's promise: this medicine absolutely had no side effects, otherwise they would compensate a hundredfold.

In a short time, major reporters and independent media outlets all took notice of this company.

The Mu Group.

A veteran company in Jiang City that had always been in the food processing industry and was frequently awarded as an outstanding enterprise.

But now, public opinion on the Mu Group was highly polarized.

There were certainly many people cursing them, accusing them of stealing the Xu family's trade secrets, as the Xu family was the first to produce this medicine.

Of course, there was also a supportive side.

These people felt that the Xu family sold their pills at too high a price with too little production, making them impossible to buy. Now that an enterprise had driven the prices down, it was a good thing.

Relatively speaking, however, those cursing the Mu Group were definitely in the majority.

Yang City.

The Mu Group Building.

Mu Qingying sat in the CEO's office, dressed in an office uniform.

Her proud and voluptuous figure made her similar to Xu Ningbing; the buttons on the front of her uniform were under immense pressure.

Now that she was the CEO, wearing a single ponytail would lack authority, so she had tied her hair up into a bun.

With her oval face, unlike Xu Ningbing's cold elegance, she possessed more approachability and charm.

Beside her, Zhong Qianqian was holding a laptop, showing Mu Qingying the data.

Right at this moment, the office door was pushed open.

Ye Chen walked in with a flat expression.

Seeing him enter, Zhong Qianqian immediately called out, "Dragon King."

Mu Qingying stood up from her executive chair and also nodded, "Mr. Ye."

The Mu Group, judging by the name, sounded like it belonged to her Mu family.

But Mu Qingying knew very well that the Mu family was now firmly in the palm of Ye Chen's hand.

Ye Chen gave a slight nod and sat on the sofa.

His eyes could hardly tear away from Mu Qingying's chest; she was simply too well-endowed.

This was exactly Ye Chen's aesthetic preference.

"How are things going?"

Ye Chen asked casually.

"To describe it in one phrase, their mouths complain but their actions are honest. More and more people are cursing us, but our sales are also climbing higher and higher."

Mu Qingying said to Ye Chen.

"That's to be expected. For the same product, we are cheaper than them, and we even offer different flavors to choose from. People aren't stupid."

Ye Chen chuckled lightly, crossing his legs as he said, "Zhong Qianqian, you did well this time."

"Thank you for the praise, Dragon King."

Zhong Qianqian giggled.

"By the way, Mr. Ye, there's a banquet in Yang City today. It's an invitation from the Ministry of Commerce. Are you going?"

Mu Qingying asked suddenly.

"I'll go. Why wouldn't I?"

Ye Chen said indifferently.

The Xu Group.

In just a few short days, Xu Ningbing had already completed the handover of the Dai family's enterprises.

She had always been resolute and swift in her actions, showing absolutely no mercy. She directly sent all the original top executives of the Dai family packing and replaced them with the Xu family's own people.

Today, Xu Ningbing sat in her office, looking at the documents brought in by her secretary, her gaze piercingly cold.

She picked up her phone and dialed Xu Mu's number.

...

Xu Mu hadn't gone out to do anything these past few days either; he had been staying at home refining pills.

He distributed the pills to Chen Xuan, Meng Wanyue, and Dai Xingluo respectively.

As for the others, like Ye Tong, Ye Yu, and Feng Yue, he didn't give them any.

Because who knew how long it would take for them to reach the Grandmaster realm. It was better to just keep the pills with him for now.

As for the Dai family's matters, he wasn't in a hurry either.

He simply told them that Hu Yanzu had arrived, and they could just call him whenever they needed him.

After receiving Xu Ningbing's call, he hurried to the company.

Arriving at the CEO's office, he pushed the door open and walked right in.

"What's wrong? Calling me over so suddenly."

Xu Mu asked as he sat down on the sofa.

"Do you know about the Mu family's situation?"

Xu Ningbing asked.

"No idea. I've been busy these past few days and haven't watched the news."

Xu Mu was a bit confused. "What happened?"

"See for yourself. Our Yang Energy Pills have always seen steady growth, but for the first time in the past few days, there's been a decline. The produced pills didn't sell out immediately; it took until the next day to clear the stock."

Xu Ningbing took a document and sat down next to Xu Mu.

Xu Mu took it, skimmed through it, and then chuckled, "The Mu Group? The Mu family is putting on quite a show now."

"Just Ye Chen's lapdogs."

Xu Ningbing's expression was cold. "There's a dinner banquet in Yang City tonight, personally invited by the Ministry of Commerce. You're coming with me."

Xu Mu nodded. With their old man not around right now, Xu Ningbing was considered a junior in front of those people.

Although given her personality she wouldn't let herself be taken advantage of, he definitely had to go along.

After noon.

Xu Ningbing brought Xu Mu along to first inspect the branch company in Yang City.

At dusk, the two of them headed together to the venue of the banquet.

Arriving at the entrance of the hotel, Xu Mu first closed his eyes to scan the area, and a wide grin spread across his face.

This really is quite the spectacle. Both Fang Chu and Ye Chen are here.
