When all the preparations were completed, Xia Yuqing put on her elegant high heels again and walked to her workstation. Although her movements were a little difficult at first, she seemed to have miraculously recovered to normal after some special treatment. "It's amazing, it's simply amazing!" Her sincere words of praise came naturally.
At the same time, I became curious and asked, "I wonder if this technique is also part of traditional Chinese medicine?" I hope to take this opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of this ancient and fascinating knowledge system.
Of course, how could Western medicine, with its 5,000-year-old essence, surpass the achievements of Western medicine in just a few decades? If I could treat your menstrual irregularities, I'd see results within three days.
"It works so quickly?! What's the secret of your medical skills?" Although Xia Yuqing had tried many Chinese medicine treatments.
But in this era, finding a true master of traditional Chinese medicine is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
She had gone to the hospital for treatment many times before, but her disease was never cured.
"Of course, I used a special method to deeply penetrate that body that resembled a painting of mountains and rivers to heal it. Come back the next time I have a fever, and I will surely be able to dispel the cold and dampness!"
Chu Jinghong shook his head with a teasing smile on his lips, as if he had already seen through all the truth.
After hearing what he said, Xia Yuqing looked confused.
"ah……"
Obviously, he didn't understand the meaning of the words.
Seeing her clear eyes filled with doubt and confusion, Mr. Chu, who always considered himself humorous, couldn't help but stop teasing her, waved his hand and prepared to leave the room.
Just as he was about to step into the elevator, an urgent voice came from behind him: "Please wait a moment!"
Xia Yuqing quickly caught up.
Thinking that his joke might have angered this usually very smart president, Chu Jinghong showed a slightly awkward smile on his face.
"Could you please help me clean up the trash at the door?"
The usually arrogant woman was seen holding a pile of documents and making a request in a gentle tone.
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
When everything was over, the personal secretary who had been watching the whole scene silently couldn't help but chuckle and covered her mouth.
Looking at the other person's reaction, Xia Yuqing couldn't help but ask, "What are you laughing at?"
Hearing this sudden question, the secretary's face immediately turned red.
"M-Boss, don't you realize the true intention of that person's words before?" she explained in a low voice.
"What's the meaning?"
The girl, curious yet a little confused about the answer, asked.
"Actually... for some people with a certain amount of life experience, this metaphor is not unfamiliar. President, haven't you ever considered..."
"This is unacceptable! He actually wants to do this?!"
Xia Yuqing angrily slammed the document on the table, her face turning extremely grim. Her hands trembled unconsciously, and she felt a strong sense of dissatisfaction and resistance to this sudden and extremely unjust request.
…………
downstairs.
Chu Jinghong had just left the company's door when he sneezed twice in succession.
At this moment, his cell phone suddenly rang, and the caller ID showed Jasmine's name.
After a little thought, he picked up the phone and asked, "Hello?" He tried to speak in a calm tone.
Then, the voice coming from the phone was filled with anger and urgency. "What the hell is this! The formula you gave me requires ingredients from the Pharaoh? This is really speechless, you know?"
It was obvious that Jasmine was in a very excited state, and her tone clearly revealed great displeasure and irritability.
After hearing what the other party said, Chu Jinghong just smiled softly and said, "Perhaps you don't know, but this unique species of organism only exists within the skin of ancient Egyptian monarchs. It is also the most core part of the formula. Tell me, according to your estimate, how long will it take to complete this work?"
"What I'm thinking about now isn't completing this task, but how to escape safely... I accidentally activated all the mummies in the mausoleum..."
Jasmine's answer reveals her extreme anxiety. Some background noises can be faintly heard on the other end of the phone, including slowly moving footsteps and other low sounds, indicating that the place she is in is full of a sense of crisis.
This situation shocked Chu Jinghong, "Then why are you contacting me at this time?" In addition to being surprised, he also felt a little uneasy.
The person on the other side seemed to have no intention of explaining more details and just continued to express his dissatisfaction: "No matter how far apart we are, there is always a way to find you!
But I really didn’t expect there would be such a big trap… If I had known there were such big risks, even going to Antarctica wouldn’t be worth the risk…”
A brief silence followed. In order to collect various rare materials, she had repeatedly set foot in every remote corner of the world; and this time, she accidentally entered an ancient secret treasure filled with unknown and terrifying elements.
If she had not been bound by the contract she had signed long ago - which meant that accepting the mission meant she had to do her utmost to complete it - she would probably have already walked away from this mission that seemed to be lucrative on the surface but was actually full of dangers.
Despite her complicated emotions, she had no choice but to face what had happened bravely and try her best to cope with the various unknown risks that were coming.
"Aren't you setting this up on purpose to frame me?"
Thinking of the thrilling experience last night and the recent series of unusual events, Chu Jinghong's heart was burning with anger, like a volcano about to erupt, almost breaking through the restraints of his body.
