Supreme Hidden Dragon in the City-Chapter 21 I Don’t Like You Calling Me Miss Su
Chapter 21: Chapter 21 I Don’t Like You Calling Me Miss Su
As evening approached, Chen Fan rushed back to Golden Lake Villa in a frantic hurry.
As soon as he pushed open the door, he was met with a burning smell.
He then saw Su Qingyan wearing an apron and cooking in the kitchen.
Her beauty was unparalleled, and with the apron on, she had the air of a stunning cook.
The only flaw was that her cooking didn’t taste very friendly.
"Miss Su, I’m really sorry, there was a traffic jam on the way back," Chen Fan quickly explained as he walked over.
Su Qingyan glanced at him indifferently, "Go wash your hands and get ready for dinner."
Chen Fan looked at the dining table, which was already set with several dishes that were "charred beyond recognition," and suddenly choked.
"Good... good," Chen Fan replied bravely and turned to wash his hands.
When Su Qingyan finished all the dishes, Chen Fan sat down at the dining table.
Su Qingyan looked at Chen Fan with anticipation, "Try my cooking, I’ve read a lot about cooking recently, so it should taste quite good."
Chen Fan recalled the breakfast Su Qingyan had made last time, smiled awkwardly, picked up a bite with his chopsticks, and put it in his mouth.
His body stiffened.
Su Qingyan tilted her head, "Isn’t it tasty?"
Chen Fan struggled to swallow it down and squeezed out a smile, "Delicious, delicious. To eat the dishes made by Miss Su is my honor."
Su Qingyan seemed quite pleased, "Then you should finish these dishes; I can make more if it’s not enough."
Chen Fan stared at the several plates on the table, his pupils shrinking.
"It seems Miss Su is a bit deluded about her cooking skills; I need to find a way to make her realize her true level, or I’ll suffer in the future."
Chen Fan changed tactics and said with a smile, "Miss Su, why don’t you eat with me? I can’t finish all this by myself."
Su Qingyan waved her hand, "I’m not hungry."
Chen Fan: "..."
Ten minutes later, Chen Fan swallowed another painful bite of the food and put down his chopsticks.
He just couldn’t eat anymore.
Su Qingyan frowned at Chen Fan, clearly dissatisfied, "Is it really that unpleasant?"
Then she picked up her chopsticks, took a bite, and her eyebrows fiercely furrowed; she quickly reached for the trash can to spit it out.
"Fine, you make dinner yourself, don’t eat this anymore."
After saying that, she fled the kitchen with a flushed face.
Chen Fan followed and said with a laugh, "Miss Su, actually your cooking..."
"Shut up!" Su Qingyan sharply interrupted.
Chen Fan immediately fell silent. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Su Qingyan, with a stern face, took out a contract and threw it on the table, "Sign this contract, and you’ll be a partner of Qingyan Pharmaceuticals. The effect of the Youth-Preserving Pill is remarkable; just two days of pre-heating, and the company’s doors are about to be broken down."
"The formula is yours, my company will handle the production and operations, and from now on, all income from the Youth-Preserving Pill will be split fifty-fifty between us."
Chen Fan: "Miss Su, that formula isn’t important to me; you don’t have to be polite..."
Su Qingyan eyed Chen Fan sharply, "Do you like making me feel indebted to you that much?"
After spending some time together, Chen Fan had come to understand Su Qingyan’s personality. Seeing her speak like that, he seriously said, "Okay, I’ll sign."
Then he picked up the contract, flipped straight to the last page, and signed his name.
Su Qingyan raised an eyebrow, "Aren’t you going to look at what’s in the contract? What if it’s a life indenture?"
Chen Fan laughed, "Selling myself to Miss Su, I would be more than willing."
"Yeah right." Su Qingyan turned around, not looking at Chen Fan, "The press conference for the Youth-Preserving Pill is next week. I’ve had people emphasize your involvement. The pharmaceutical circles are now filled with anticipation for the creator of the Youth-Preserving Pill. Prepare yourself; you’ll accompany me to the event."
"Ah?" Chen Fan was a bit surprised, "Miss Su, I gifted you the prescription for the Youth-Preserving Pill. You can do whatever you want with it; there’s no need to put me in the spotlight."
Su Qingyan looked at Chen Fan, "Aren’t you supposed to take responsibility for me? Without a name or power, how are you going to do that?"
Chen Fan was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with excitement, "Miss Su, I’m in!"
He was no longer the abject and timid Chen Fan of the past. Now that fame and fortune were knocking at his door, he could easily handle it, without any fear.
Su Qingyan took out another bank card and handed it to Chen Fan, "This is an advance on your compensation. There are ten million in the card; you can spend it first. Your future earnings from the Youth-Preserving Pill will also be deposited into this card. The PIN is the last six digits of the card number."
Chen Fan was shocked. Ten million was an astronomical figure for him at the moment.
He did not refuse, but reached out and took the bank card.
He indeed needed money now, and to be overly modest would just seem too pretentious.
"Then I shall not stand on ceremony." Chen Fan grinned.
Then he remembered something about Yang Wanli and asked, "By the way, I have a friend who wants the agency rights for the Youth-Preserving Pill. He’s facing some difficulties lately, could you waive the agency fee? You can deduct it from my future earnings."
Su Qingyan looked nonchalant, "The patent for the Youth-Preserving Pill belongs to you. Who you appoint as the agent, how much agency fee to charge, and the price the agent gets for the pills are all up to you. Once you have decided, just get Secretary Wang to draw up the contract."
Chen Fan happily said, "Miss Su, thank you. Although you may seem cold on the outside, inside..."
"I don’t like you calling me Miss Su." Su Qingyan cut off Chen Fan.
Chen Fan thought for a moment and tentatively said, "Qing... Qingyan?"
Su Qingyan turned and walked out toward the villa.
Chen Fan thought he had made Su Qingyan angry by addressing her like that and was anxious to explain.
But then he heard Su Qingyan throw out a sentence, "There is a dinner tomorrow night, you’ll accompany me."
After that, she left the villa and drove away.
Chen Fan stood still for a long time, then excitedly clenched his fist and jumped up.
"Have I... made progress with her?"
The next morning.
After finishing his cultivation, Chen Fan headed to Qingyan Pharmaceuticals to look for Secretary Wang and draft a contract.
"A Youth-Preserving Pill that costs three hundred to make, priced at five hundred thousand each, this profit margin is outrageous!"
Coming out from Qingyan Pharmaceuticals with the contract in hand, Chen Fan was shocked by the disparity between the cost and the pricing of the Youth-Preserving Pill.
"Indeed, a woman’s money is the easiest to earn in this world," he thought.
He took the contract and hurried to Hanging Pot Medical Hall.
"The Youth-Preserving Pill is priced at five hundred thousand, and even as an agent, acquiring the pill would cost four hundred thousand each. Although Doctor Yang’s agency fee would be waived, the cost for the pills would still be a significant burden for him."
"Despite his own difficulties, Doctor Yang didn’t hesitate to send me two hundred-year ginsengs. It’s rare to find someone as generous and straightforward - a friend worth making. With that in mind, I’ll let Doctor Yang get the pills for a lower price."
As he thought this, Chen Fan flipped open the contract and in the column for the agent’s drug acquisition price, he wrote down "three thousand per pill."
