Supreme Hidden Dragon in the City-Chapter 27 The Ruse of the Self-Inflicted Wound
Chapter 27: Chapter 27 The Ruse of the Self-Inflicted Wound
The next morning.
Chen Fan was cultivating.
The security captain of the community came to knock on the door.
Chen Fan went out, and the security captain immediately greeted him respectfully, "Mr. Chen, there are three people at the entrance of the community looking for a Master of Medicine named Chen. In our community, you’re the only one with the surname Chen. I wonder if they are looking for you?"
Chen Fan was slightly startled, "Master of Medicine?"
He remembered that Su Qingyan, in order to hype him up, had publicized that the Youth-Preserving Pill came from the hands of a Master of Medicine.
"Who are those three people?" Chen Fan asked.
The security captain answered, "Two women and a man. The two women look like mother and daughter, and the man is in his twenties, probably the young woman’s husband."
Chen Fan’s eyebrows rose, "Take me over for a look."
The two of them walked together to a small garden not far from the entrance of the community.
Chen Fan glanced towards the entrance and discovered that the people waiting outside were Qin Lan, Sun Jiancheng, and Zhang Wanfang.
A cold smile appeared on his face, "So, failing to cozy up to Qingyan, they’ve turned to suck up to me, the Master of Medicine, instead?"
"However, they would surely be shocked if they knew the Master of Medicine was me, wouldn’t they?"
The security captain asked, "Mr. Chen, shall we let the three of them come in?"
Chen Fan shook his head, "Tell them to leave. Just say I don’t have the time."
The security captain nodded and walked towards the entrance.
Chen Fan’s gaze landed on the gift boxes in Qin Lan and Sun Jiancheng’s hands and his eyes turned, "Wait a moment!"
The security captain hurried back, "Mr. Chen, do you have any other orders?"
A sly smile appeared on Chen Fan’s face, "Get those gift boxes they brought over. Why refuse what’s free?"
The security captain walked to the entrance of the community.
Zhang Wanfang and the other two hurriedly approached, "Security brother, is Master Chen willing to see us?"
The security captain glanced at them, "Mr. Chen doesn’t have the time. You all should leave."
All three faces immediately showed disappointment.
"However, Mr. Chen asked you to leave the things you brought behind," said the security captain.
Zhang Wanfang’s eyes lit up, "Dear daughter, Jiancheng, quickly hand over your gift boxes to them!"
Qin Lan was somewhat reluctant, "Mom, that Master Chen won’t even see us, why should we give gifts?"
Zhang Wanfang stretched out her hand and took the gift boxes from Qin Lan and Sun Jiancheng’s hands, "What do you know! Master Chen’s willingness to accept the gifts means he recognizes us!"
Qin Lan’s eyes widened, "Really?"
"When has Mom ever lied to you? Listen to me, it’s definitely the right thing to do." Zhang Wanfang passed the gift boxes to the security captain.
The security captain reached out to take them.
Just then, Zhang Wanfang suddenly remembered something and pulled her hand back, "Security brother, does Master Chen know who we are?"
The security captain thought for a moment, "By the looks of it, he should know."
Zhang Wanfang then smilingly handed over the gift boxes.
Sun Jiancheng beside her also nodded with a smile, "Aunty is right, Master Chen must have recognized us."
Zhang Wanfang looked forward with expectation, "This time, we are sure to get the agency rights for the Youth-Preserving Pill!"
...
In the living room of the villa.
Chen Fan opened several gift boxes sent by Zhang Wanfang and the others.
Inside were all precious medicinal materials, worth a considerable sum.
"They are really willing to invest heavily."
"Although these medicinal materials are not as good as hundred-year ginseng, they also contain quite a bit of Spiritual Energy."
"Since you’re the ones offering them, then I won’t be polite."
...
Qingyan Pharmaceuticals.
Su Qingyan was sitting at her desk, reading a book titled "Become a Top Chef in Thirty Days."
Just then, there was a knock at the door. She quickly closed the book and put it away in her drawer.
"Come in."
Secretary Wang entered.
"Miss, the boss of Tiancheng Pharmaceutical, Sun Decai, is still kneeling at the company’s entrance. We can’t drive him away."
Su Qingyan frowned, "Haven’t I made myself clear? There’s no way we’re giving him the agency rights for the Youth-Preserving Pill, and the cooperation between his company and ours has to be terminated. Doesn’t he know what his son has done?"
Secretary Wang sighed, "I’ve relayed your message to him as per your instructions, but he refuses to give up. He said the previous partnerships can be terminated, and he’s willing to pay all the penalty fees, but he insists on obtaining the agency rights for the Youth-Preserving Pill."
"He’s kneeling at the company’s entrance to apologize to Miss on behalf of Sun Jiancheng. If Miss doesn’t agree to the agency rights, he said he would keep kneeling."
Su Qingyan sighed, "This Sun Decai is indeed a man who dares to act and take responsibility, yet it’s a wonder how he managed to raise a son like Sun Jiancheng."
Just then, someone rushed over in a panic, "Miss, it’s not good. The old man who was kneeling outside the company has fainted! His face is so white it’s terrifying, it seems like he fainted from kneeling too long, probably from insufficient blood supply. He looks like he’s about to die!"
Su Qingyan immediately stood up, "Then why aren’t you rushing him to the hospital!"
The person replied, "We’ve already called for an ambulance. That old man is really tough, at his age, kneeling for such a long time, he’s determined not to give up."
Secretary Wang turned to look at Su Qingyan, "Miss, what should we do about this matter?"
Su Qingyan showed a hint of helplessness, "It’s done, considering how sincere Sun Decai is, let’s just give them an agency."
"Yes!" Secretary Wang replied.
...
Evening.
Sun Jiancheng returned home.
As soon as he entered, he saw his father sitting on the sofa, drinking and listening to operas with a face beaming with joy.
"Dad, what’s made you so happy?" Sun Jiancheng asked.
Sun Decai turned his head and snorted coldly, "It’s nothing more than cleaning up your mess."
Sun Jiancheng looked guilty. After the incident at Old Lady Qin’s birthday banquet, he had been too scared to speak loudly at home.
Sun Decai then threw a contract to Sun Jiancheng, "Take a look at this for yourself."
Sun Jiancheng took it and glanced over, his eyes widening, "Dad, you’ve secured the agency rights for the Youth-Preserving Pill?"
Sun Decai smiled proudly, "It took just a little ruse, that Su Qingyan, despite her prestigious status, is still a young girl in her twenties after all. Making her soften her stance was easy as pie."
Sun Jiancheng excitedly sat down next to Sun Decai, "Dad, you’re amazing. And to tell you the truth, I also played a part in securing these agency rights."
"Oh? How so?" asked Sun Decai.
Sun Jiancheng recounted his visit to present a gift to the Master of Medicine earlier in the day.
After hearing this, Sun Decai burst out laughing and looked at his son approvingly, "It seems you are not just trouble after all, you’ve handled this matter well."
"The Youth-Preserving Pill created by this Master of Medicine has already caused a sensation throughout the city, proving his extraordinary capabilities. Now, elites from all industries are eager to establish ties with this Master of Medicine."
"Your ability to connect with this Master of Medicine ahead of everyone else is a rare opportunity for Tiancheng Pharmaceutical."
Sun Jiancheng began to feel proud, "Dad, with you securing the agency rights for the Youth-Preserving Pill and me being recognized by the Master of Medicine, the era belonging to Tiancheng Pharmaceutical is on the horizon!"
