Chapter 38: Ghost crying in the middle of the night, early treatment and early recovery
The car was very quiet. Teng Su looked out the window without saying a word.
In the reflection, Qin Qinsen was concentrating with a serious expression, his fingers swiping on the tablet computer, zooming in and out of the satellite image from time to time, carefully examining every inch of land in the industrial park.
He is a weird person.
She is very good-looking, always smiling, but her eyes are distant, as if separated from the world by a barrier. Only when she faces matters of ghosts and gods do her eyes light up and burst with energy.
Judging from his tone, he doesn't like working, but he's more straightforward than anyone else when it comes to collecting payments. He never shirks his responsibility when paid. Although joining Teng's company felt somewhat forced...
"This park is a giant dragon-trapping formation. It's centered around a fountain, with trees and sculptures arranged throughout. When a person or company's luck reaches a certain level, the formation is triggered, rapidly sucking away their good fortune. The better the luck, the more it sucks away."
Meeting Teng Su's gaze, Qin Qinsen jokingly said, "President Teng is indeed a popular figure. Everyone wants to get close to him and take a bite."
Teng Su actually nodded in acknowledgment, which made Qin Qinsen a little stunned. "...Just don't go here, others won't be able to trigger the formation at all."
"Why?"
"Not everyone can be my financial sponsor like you." Qin Qinsen returned the tablet to Tang Shuang and continued to explain, "The dragon trapped is the 'dragon'. Most people can't reach this standard."
Under Qin Qinsen's "shameless" look, Teng Su nodded again.
"Xiao Tang will take you clothes shopping in the afternoon, and then go to the dinner with me in the evening."
"What do you mean you have to bring a male companion to a dinner party?" Qin Qinsen rolled his eyes and looked unhappy on the surface, but did not refuse directly.
Teng Su whispered, "Pharmaceutical Cooperation and Development Summit Forum."
…………
It was called a dinner party, but it was just a group of humanoid creatures dressed in bright clothes and wearing human skin masks exchanging interests.
Qin Qinsen's eyes wandered around the buffet. Desserts, desserts, more desserts, or fruit, all sweet. He took a sip of his champagne, his brow furrowed slightly. The taste was rather sweet. Turning to the other side, he glanced at Teng Su, who was socializing, and quickened his pace. While his sponsor was busy, he would find something to eat. When his sponsor remembered him, he would have to go back to work.
"Qin Qinsen?"
Looking sideways at the source of the voice, it was Shangguan Yue.
Like him, Shangguan Yue grabbed a drink and lingered around the buffet table, apparently also looking for something to eat.
"Don't look at it, there are desserts and fruits over there. I smell steak, over there."
Meeting in this kind of situation, Shangguan Yue had a lot of questions to ask, but Qin Qinsen was genuinely hungry, his mind and eyes filled with food. Biting her lower lip, Shangguan Yue stopped thinking and chased after him.
"Why are you here too? Didn't you resign? What are you doing here?"
Qin Qinsen picked up the plate, picked up a few pieces of beef, and took some seafood, then happily found a place to sit down. "I'm free anyway, let's eat something."
"You——" Shangguan Yue was a little angry.
This person always evades the question or says something incomprehensible and confusing. Especially before leaving...
"What on earth did you do to Xiao Wang? She has become...become..."
"Don't spread gossip?" As expected, top-quality ingredients only require simple seasoning. Qin Qinsen squinted his eyes in enjoyment.
Shangguan Yue shook her head. "She's a little...changed now."
"How do you change it?"
"She has become less talkative now. She no longer chats on WeChat or posts on Moments."
Qin Qinsen chuckled, "I see you don't post on Moments either. Why, isn't that a good thing?"
"No! What I mean is, what did you do to Xiao Wang? She has become depressed and not as active as before!" Shangguan Yue was a little angry.
It must be Qin Qinsen who did something, otherwise how could such a lively and chatty person change so much overnight.
"This is best for her now. She won't offend people she can't afford to offend by saying something she shouldn't have."
Qin Qinsen didn't take much food, so he finished it in a few bites. Seeing Teng Su's searching gaze, he stood up and said to Shangguan Yue, "If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. Please do as you please."
"Where are you going?" Qin Qinsen's attitude made Shangguan Yue a little angry. Thinking of what Luo Nanchen had said in the past few days, she grabbed Qin Qinsen's sleeve and stopped him from leaving. "What on earth are you doing here!?"
Qin Qinsen had a distant expression on his face as he lowered his head to look at Shangguan Yue, who was sitting at the table with an expression of anger and unconscious uneasiness.
What was she angry about? It was just a boring dinner party, and Shangguan Yue's role was not much different from that of the many other female companions in the venue.
Perhaps because Qin Qinsen's eyes were too cold, Shangguan Yue subconsciously clenched the cloth in her hand, "I, I..."
"What's going on?"
"Qin Qinsen?"
Two figures approached from the left and right and asked questions at the same time.
Qin Qinsen nodded to Luo Nanchen as a greeting. Luo Nanchen asked in confusion, "Why are you here? Who brought you here... Oh..."
As Teng Su approached, Luo Nanchen's doubts turned into understanding. He didn't know what was going on in his mind. His eyes moved back and forth between Qin Qinsen and Teng Su, and the smile on his lips deepened. The next second, he rescued Qin Qinsen's sleeve.
Luo Nanchen held Shangguan Yue's hand and said softly, "Don't make trouble, President Teng will be angry."
His tone was soft, but he secretly exerted force with his hands, holding Shangguan Yue tightly.
His eyes swept over Luo Nanchen's hand, and a hint of disdain flashed in Teng Su's eyes. He looked at Qin Qinsen, and sure enough, he found the same disapproval in his eyes.
Luo Nanchen thought he had the answer and was about to speak to Teng Su to get closer, but he saw the two of them nodded to him perfunctorily and left without any intention of communicating.
"Where are you going?" Qin Qinsen straightened his sleeves, obviously very dissatisfied with the wrinkles on them.
"This is Mr. Qi from Qilin Pharmaceuticals, and this is our Teng Corporation's current special advisor, Qin Qinsen."
Qin Qinsen discreetly appraised the man before him. He was in his early thirties, thin, and wore glasses, looking very refined. His body was tinged with the scent of plants and trees, and his hands bore tiny wounds, some of which were clearly old, evident from his frequent fiddling with plants and branches.
"No, no, no, I'm just a farmer, how can I compare with you." Qi Qingshan was a little nervous.
Qilin Pharmaceuticals was a small business, but its success was entirely due to the large amount of land and the quality of the medicinal herbs grown. Furthermore, Qi Qingshan's father, a man of great intelligence and a keen business savvy, had transformed his family's medicinal fields into a well-known local enterprise.
He never thought he would meet Teng at the medical summit, and he couldn't imagine that Teng Su, who was notoriously unsociable, would communicate with him in such a friendly manner.
"General Qi."
Seeing Qin Qinsen smile and shake hands with others, Teng Su felt a glimmer of hope in his heart.
As Qi Qingshan responded, he racked his brains for how to introduce his company, how to attract investment or new cooperation, or whether he should directly introduce the medicinal herbs he had recently cultivated. Suddenly, Qin Qinsen leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Ghosts crying in the middle of the night disturb people's sleep. The sooner they are treated, the better. Don't you agree?"
