Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife

"Let’s talk in the car," Xu Yanran said with a smile.

The two of them got in the car.

It was only then that Xu Yanran began to explain. "Just two days ago, Chief Instructor Leng suddenly contacted me in private. She asked me to go with her to Fragrant City to look for a certain medicinal herb and also told me to keep my whereabouts a secret."

"Looking for medicinal herbs?" Chen Xiao asked in surprise. "Did she say what kind of medicinal herb it was?"

"She didn’t tell me that," Xu Yanran said, shaking her head. "Right now, the internal conflicts within Dragon Soul have reached a fever pitch. It’s a critical moment for the transition between the old and new generations.

"Chief Instructor Leng probably wants to keep her whereabouts secret out of fear that someone might make a move against her. After all, Fragrant City is quite a unique place."

Hearing this, Chen Xiao nodded slightly, understanding Leng Baiyu’s concerns. "Alright. Since you’re going with my senior sister, find a way to let me know if anything happens."

He was also worried something might happen to Leng Baiyu.

"Okay. I’m telling you this precisely because I’m worried. After all, there aren’t many people we can trust these days," Xu Yanran said, sounding somewhat helpless. "Currently, the faction led by Xing Zhanlong is extremely aggressive. They’ve reached a point where they’ll stop at nothing to gain power."

Chen Xiao narrowed his eyes. Leaving Xing Zhanlong unchecked is indeed a threat to Leng Baiyu.

The two of them drove all the way back to the villa.

Upon seeing Chen Xiao return, Robin hurried over eagerly. "Lord Chen, I’ve come to report today’s achievements."

"Go ahead."

Robin reported, "Today, Lu Rugao injected another ten billion into the Luo Group’s stock market, forcibly dragging its stock price down by five points. I deliberately used one billion to try and push it back up, but in the end, I staged a ’failed’ retreat. This was done specifically to give them the illusion that we can no longer contend with her."

Chen Xiao nodded. "Good."

Robin chuckled. "Soon, we’ll be able to sound the charge. Right now, the Luo Group’s stock price has dropped to a low point. Some people are following the trend and selling off their shares, but at the same time, others are looking to buy in cheap.

"When the time comes, we just need to build a little momentum, and we can send the stock price soaring.

"By then, Lu Rugao will be trapped like a turtle in a jar, and all the money she has invested will be devoured by us."

Chen Xiao nodded. "Then let’s hold steady for now." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

「Elsewhere」

After Lu Rugao returned to her residence, she recalled the scene in the restaurant, and her expression turned extremely dark.

Chen Xiao, I’ll let you be arrogant for a little while longer. Soon, you won’t be able to keep it up! Once the experts from the Lu Family arrive in Yuncheng City, you will have no choice but to be an obedient dog, groveling on the ground and wagging your tail!

Just then, a young woman walked in to report on the day’s situation.

After hearing the report, a cold sneer formed on Lu Rugao’s lips. It seems they’ve run out of tricks! Their financial chain is completely broken, leaving them for me to crush! In less than three days, the Luo Group will be beyond saving.

At this thought, her mood finally improved considerably.

She ordered coldly, "Notify Sharp Sword Finance to maintain this offensive. Don’t give them any chance to get back on their feet."

"Yes!" The young woman turned and left.

She had barely gone when Lu Rugao’s phone rang again. She answered it, her face immediately lighting up with joy. "Elder Li has already arrived in Yuncheng City? Excellent, excellent! I’ll go greet him personally!"

These past few days in Yuncheng City, she had suffered quite a few indignities.

Now that her Protector was here, she finally didn’t have to fear that bastard Chen Xiao anymore
