"Qi Heng, you are the beastly husband of Fourth Sister. You come to me for cooperation. Are you and your wife teaming up to set me up?"

In Shen Cimei's bedroom, she dismissed the beast husband and met Qi Heng alone, personally serving him a glass of wine. When she learned about the cooperation plan, her face suddenly changed, "Okay, okay, tell Shen Yin not to try again. I won't interfere in this matter, but I can't say for sure about Shen Qiangwei's side."

She sat down, took a sip of red wine, swirled it gently, and looked at Qi Heng with a squint.

Qi Heng chuckled and calmly picked up the wine glass, his smile not reaching his eyes. "The Fourth Prince has always been wary of me. For the sake of the potion, he even disregarded our feelings. In this case, I can only rely on myself to get it."

"Your Highness, why should you be on guard? With Chen Yin's abilities, this potion is bound to fall into the hands of Xue Mei and her apprentice. Rather than letting them benefit, why not cooperate? Afterwards, I only want one potion, and you must ensure the safety of Your Highness."

Qi Heng raised his eyebrows, his voice neither hurried nor slow, with a deadly allure, and he persuaded her step by step.

Shen Cimei was stunned and looked at him carefully, "Are you serious?"

After confirming it, she couldn't help laughing.

Chen Yin is a useless idiot who has no father who loves her. Her fiancé was taken away from her. She grew up in the slums and has been bullied since childhood. Now even her beastly husband wants to stab her.

But this was exactly what she wanted.

It would have been fine if Chen Yin had always been the same as before, but now she was actually showing a tendency to be on par with Chen Qiangwei, and was qualified to be regarded as a rival by her.

"Okay! I agree to your request. After all, Chen Yin is my sister. I won't watch her being executed."

Chen Cimei readily agreed and tentatively asked, "But are you sure you only want one potion?"

Qi Heng was of course certain that their country had the most advanced pharmaceutical technology, far ahead of MSI. As long as they could get the pharmaceuticals, cracking it would only be a matter of time.

Qi Heng nodded sullenly, immersed in Shen Yin's cold and ruthless anger.

Chen Cimei sighed sincerely, "Fourth sister is really confused. It's just a mere bottle of medicine. A thousand bottles were handed over to the country, but they didn't even give you one. Qi Heng, you did the right thing. You should let Chen Yin know how powerful she is. Otherwise, she always ignores you and makes people angry."

Qi Heng, with a gloomy face, clenched the wine glass tightly, his knuckles turning white, and took a gulp of wine. "Then His Highness agrees?"

"Of course, what I, Shen Cimei, hate most in my life is stingy females, especially those who are so stingy towards their beastly husbands!"

Shen Cimei gnashed her teeth, empathizing with Qi Heng.

Qi Heng twitched his lips, his smile cold, "So do you have a plan?"

"Well, Wang Xueli, the student in the lab, is already mine. However, she only has a portion of the information she has about her, as it's confidential..."

Qi Heng pondered for a moment, "As for the information and medicine, please ask Your Highness to ask her to get one."

Chen Cimei frowned, looking troubled: "Qi Heng, you don't know that the medicine is strictly controlled. Even if she wants to take it, she needs a place to store it."

"Why is that so difficult?"

Qi Heng chuckled, took out a pen and handed it to Shen Cimei.

"This is?"

She was startled, took it and checked it, and penetrated it with her mental power, but found nothing unusual.

Qi Heng took it with his backhand and unscrewed the pen cap. "There's a secret hidden within the pen cap. It has a square meter of storage space. With this, His Highness's people only need to secretly hide the information and medicine inside. As for the laboratory surveillance issue, His Highness should have an idea."

Half of the palace guards are under the command of Shen Cimei, and the other half is led by Shen Qiangwei. Monitoring a mere laboratory is not a difficult task for them.

Shen Cimei was secretly astonished. She didn't expect Qi Heng to have such a heaven-defying thing. She quickly took it and examined it, her face showing shock. "What a treasure!"

A hint of greed flashed across his eyes, but disappeared after he thought of the spiritual potion.

No matter how precious the storage is, it is not as important as the potion that improves your ability. That is the fundamental thing.

Qi Heng stood up and said, "I won't stay any longer. Hurry up and don't let Shen Qiangwei get the upper hand."

Shen Cimei sneered while holding the pen: “Don’t worry, even if Shen Qiangwei takes the potion, it will be useless.”

"Did you do anything tricky with the potion?"

Qi Heng glanced sideways, not too surprised.

They wanted to get the potion formula, so of course they had to destroy those thousand tubes, otherwise what would be the point of Chen Yin's mission for them?

The day when the medicine is developed in batches is the day when the empress officially announces it. If the medicine fails by then, even if Chen Yin herself can develop the real medicine, it will leave countless opportunities for others to make a fuss, and Chen Yin will not be able to explain it even if she has a lot of mouths.

So that batch of medicine has been infiltrated.

Chen Cimei curled her lips, "Of course, Qi Heng, don't worry, our cooperation is mutually beneficial, and no third person will know."

The two reached a cooperation, and Qi Heng withdrew. His SS-level mental power allowed him to conceal his aura in the palace and move freely. No one at home even noticed that he had gone out, and the surveillance could not detect his face.

…

Time passed in a busy manner. When the ten days were up, the students in the laboratory completed the task ahead of schedule. Among them, Song Yu worked the hardest. Not only did he have to work hard himself, but he also had to take into account the movements of other students. During this period, they were like comrades in the same trench and developed a deep relationship.

Song Yu, whose names he couldn't even remember, remembered the tacit understanding they developed during those short ten days together.

"Has the medicine been confirmed to be correct?"

On the day it ended, Chen Yin specifically instructed the robot to prepare a table of dishes and invited the students to dinner. During this period, when she had time, she fed the robot recipes, and the food it made tasted surprisingly good.

The students were very excited when they first stepped into Chen Yin's palace, especially when they thought about submitting the potion tomorrow. This group of high-spirited young people was full of energy.

Song Yu nodded, "I've checked it, and it's fine. It's already been packaged and will be delivered to Her Majesty the Empress tomorrow."

A group of people sat down at the table to eat hot pot. The steam was rising. There was barbecue on one side and hot pot on the other side. There were also various drinks. The table was full of fresh and tender meat. They were all young people in their twenties, who were at the age to eat.

"good!"

Chen Yin, who was sitting in the first seat, was overjoyed, smiling broadly, her eyes sparkling. "Just wait for the Queen Mother to confirm everything. Then I'll give you bonuses and apply to the Queen Mother for funding to build a laboratory. You can stay in the laboratory and serve the country. Of course, it won't interfere with your studies."

Looking at the well-dressed Chen Yin, Huo Xun and Gu Xingmang felt extremely unfamiliar with her. It was the first time they saw her like this. She was so sparkling that people couldn't take their eyes off her.

Huo Xun's stern brows softened involuntarily, and he looked at her with a smile on his face, secretly looking forward to tomorrow.

Gu Xingmang and Qi Heng have different thoughts.

Gu Xingmang's eyes passed over the smiling Qi Heng without moving his expression. He took a sip of wine and couldn't help but feel frightened. He could already imagine the thrilling tomorrow, as all forces wanted to intervene.
