"Do we need it for this antidote?" Ye Bosen, standing beside her, felt a chill run down his spine when he saw the terrifying poisonous insect in her hand.

"Yes, it's the nemesis of that toxin; only with it can that toxin be broken down."

"Luckily, my master forced me to catch a few more, otherwise I really wouldn't have any other way. That's what my master used to detoxify you back then."

"I see. Is this enough?"

"Making a few dozen bottles of antidote shouldn't be a problem. The question is how many people have been poisoned this time, and whether they've all been poisoned by the same kind of poison. I'll make the antidote first and have Mr. Wang's son take it. Then we'll go to other places to see if it's the same kind of poison."

"good."

Master's laboratory is very advanced, so Xiao Qianqian prepared the antidote right here.

Ye Bosen watched as she put on her white coat and got busy, not wanting to disturb her, and left the laboratory.

He came out to the courtyard and made himself a cup of tea. He had lived here for a while. It was far from the hustle and bustle, quiet, and the air was fresh. He liked it very much. Most importantly, it was the place where he and his wife met, which was very meaningful to him.

Preparing the antidote would take time, and since he had nothing else to do, he changed into his old clothes, then carried a bucket and prepared to water the herbs.

The bodyguards next to him were astonished to see their boss change his clothes and start working with practiced ease. Was this still their boss? He seemed like a completely different person.

They quickly stepped forward, ready to take the buckets from the shop owner's back: "Boss, what do you need us to do? Please let us do it."

Ye Bosen smiled and waved his hand, "No need, I want to stretch my muscles." With that, he picked up the water bucket and walked towards the herbs.

The bodyguards exchanged glances and followed helplessly.

Ye Bosen skillfully watered each herb, his eyes full of focus.

At this moment, a bodyguard cautiously asked, "Boss, did you often do this kind of work before?"

Ye Bosen nodded. "Yes, when I was recuperating here, I would help take care of these herbs every day." He recalled that peaceful time, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

After watering the plants, Ye Bosen put down the bucket and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He turned to his bodyguards and said, "Do you know? These herbs were carefully cultivated by my wife; they are the result of her and her master's hard work."

The bodyguards nodded in agreement.

Looking at the vibrant herbs before him, Ye Bosen felt a mix of emotions.

He checked the time; three hours had passed, but the lab door remained tightly closed. It seemed he would need some more time.

"Please help us make some lunch. It seems Madam will need a little more time to prepare the antidote."

"Okay, boss, just tell me what you need."

Ye Bosen pointed to a patch of land next to the yard; "There are vegetables there, pick some and we'll cook them for lunch."

"Okay." The bodyguards quickly walked in the direction he pointed.

Ye Bosen didn't change his clothes. He went to the kitchen, looked at the leftover ingredients, including cured meat, eggs, and a few pickled pheasants.

He took out some of the ingredients, lit the earthen stove, and started cooking and boiling meat. He was already quite skilled at this; after living here for a while, it was no longer difficult for him.

After a busy noon, Ye Bosen prepared a small table of dishes, which was more than enough for the group. He walked to the laboratory door and knocked on it.

"Honey, I've made lunch. Would you like some?"

It was quiet inside. After about five minutes, Xiao Qianqian's voice came out: "Asen, you guys eat. I'm at a critical time here. Just save some for me. It will probably be ready in about two more hours."

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Ye Bosen sat down on the chair outside the door and took out his phone to handle company matters. Time passed by, and finally, the laboratory door opened.

Xiao Qianqian walked out looking slightly tired, and Ye Bosen immediately went up to her, asking with concern, "How did it go? Did you succeed?"

Xiao Qianqian smiled and nodded, her eyes sparkling with excitement: "Yes, the antidote is ready!"

Ye Bosen breathed a sigh of relief and took her hand, saying, "You've worked hard. Go and eat. I've been waiting for you."

The two arrived at the dining table, where the bodyguards had already thoughtfully heated up the food.

Looking at the steaming food and the bodyguards standing beside her, Xiao Qianqian asked in confusion, "None of you have eaten?"

"Madam, we're waiting for you."

"I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting. Come on, sit down and eat quickly, everyone's hungry."

The bodyguards glanced at their boss; they weren't used to eating at the same table with him, so they didn't dare.

"What are you all standing there for? Didn't Madam say you should sit down and eat?"

The bodyguards looked at each other, then carefully sat down and picked up their chopsticks to eat.

"Here, these are all local delicacies. Try them and see if you like them."

Xiao Qianqian watched them staring blankly at their chopsticks and then picked up a piece of marinated chicken for each of them.

The bodyguards stared blankly at the chicken in the bowl. This lady was so approachable; they were deeply moved.

"Eat up! What are you all standing there for? Aren't you hungry?"

"Thank you, Madam." The bodyguards were starving, but their boss insisted on waiting for her to finish her work before eating, so they had no choice but to stay with her.

Looking at the fragrant chicken, I quickly put it in my mouth. It was so delicious and fragrant.

Ye Bosen, who was staring resentfully at Xiao Qianqian, felt aggrieved when he saw his wife serving chicken to the bodyguards while his own bowl remained empty.

"Honey, what about me?"

Xiao Qianqian was also starving and was about to put a piece of chicken in her mouth when she saw her husband's aggrieved expression. She realized that she had forgotten about her biggest jealous husband, so she quickly put the piece of chicken to his mouth.

When Ye Bosen saw that his wife hadn't forgotten him and was even feeding him chicken, he quickly opened his mouth, took the piece of chicken, and a big smile appeared on his face.

The bodyguards who were quietly eating nearby were trying not to laugh. They hadn't expected their boss to have such a funny side, acting like a child fighting over candy. It was so cute.

Everyone enjoyed a sumptuous lunch. Ye Bosen looked at Xiao Qianqian, his heart filled with love and gratitude.

After the meal, Xiao Qianqian handed the antidote to Ye Bosen.

"I'll give you the antidote here. After we understand the situation of those who have been poisoned, you'll be responsible for delivering the antidote to them. I believe this will help us win back some customers."

"Okay, thank you, honey."
