The driver brought the car to the front door, and Xie Wei woke the two of them up.
Xie Wei returned to his room and was about to take off his coat when there was a knock on the door.
When Xie Wei opened the door, he saw Li Ning standing there. Seeing this, he noticed that the conflicted look on Xie Wei's face turned into a determined one.
Before Xie Wei could say anything, Li Ning reached out and placed her hands on Xie Wei's shoulders, then stood on tiptoe to kiss him. She meant to kiss Xie Wei's face, but ended up kissing his chin instead.
Before Xie Wei could react, Li Ning shyly ran back to her room, leaving Xie Wei still completely bewildered.
By the time Xie Wei realized what was happening, the person in front of him had already disappeared. Xie Wei could only shake his head, not thinking much of it, and return to his room.
Xie Wei, who was about to take a shower, saw his face in the mirror and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Because they were attending the auction, the three girls had all dressed up, resulting in Xie Wei having three lipstick marks on his face: one on his left cheek, one on his right cheek, and the last one on his chin where Li Ning had just kissed him.
I was in this state the whole time on the bus, no wonder the driver gave me that look when I got off. I guess I'll have to give Ms. Zheng a good explanation again.
After taking a shower, Xie Wei sat on the bed to stabilize his mental energy. Since obtaining the "Red Dust" manual, his mental energy had increased too rapidly, causing his realm to be in a state of constant breakthrough, which was not a good thing.
If one's cultivation level increases too quickly without replenishing one's spiritual energy in time, it is easy to explode and die.
To prevent this from happening, Xie Wei suppressed his cultivation level to the half-step innate realm. Suppressing his cultivation level not only replenished the spiritual energy in his body, but also made his spiritual energy more refined.
This was a method Xie Lan told Xie Wei. The spiritual energy in the mortal world is too thin, and the purity of the spiritual power it is converted into is not enough, which will cause the physical body to not get the desired effect.
Once his breathing had calmed down, Xie Weicai began to recall everything that had happened that day, especially regarding Lin Qingying. He didn't understand Lin Qingying's current thoughts.
If he knew that Lin Qingying's current plan was to find a time to take advantage of Xie Wei, he would probably be scared and stay far away.
Let's turn our attention to Chen Rong. A few days ago, because the company's computer was hacked, Chen Rong couldn't eat or sleep well, and she looked much more haggard.
Nothing much happened in the past few days, so Chen Rong gradually relaxed and became more convinced that King was just playing around and wouldn't pry into other people's privacy.
Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, bad news came from the company: a problem had occurred with a user of one of the company's products, causing Chen's stock to gradually decline and a significant decrease in customers.
If the matter continues to escalate, it will inevitably affect Chen's cooperation with other companies and may also attract the attention of relevant departments. Moreover, the products in Chen's possession simply cannot withstand inspection.
Chen Rong had no choice but to cut back on the Chen family's allowance and use that money to shut up the users who had caused the problems.
The head of the Chen family knew that there was a problem with the Chen family, but he didn't think it was a big deal. However, the Chen family matriarch, who was used to spending money lavishly, complained to Chen Feng about the reduction in his allowance, which caused a conflict.
Chen Rong thought they were just being womanly and ignored them. Her original plan to take revenge on Xie Wei was thwarted by these unexpected events.
Sitting at home drinking tea, Xie Wei listened to the message coming from the other end of his phone. He put down his teacup and slowly said, "Let's work on it for a few more days, then we'll release the ingredients."
The person on the other end said "I understand" and then hung up the phone.
Xie Wei had considered the possible role the Chen family might play in Ye Yan's fate. Xie Wei didn't care, or rather, he was confident about the fate of everyone in the Chen family.
Given the nature of the Heavenly Dao, Su Miaomiao is the female lead, and Chen Feng is an inescapable leech. Thinking about it this way, it's actually quite easy to guess Chen Feng's identity. He's either a minor villain or a tool to promote the relationship between Ye Yan and Su Miaomiao.
Given the Chen family's personalities, they are probably similar to Chen Feng in that they don't take Ye Yan seriously. They're likely the kind of family that uses the tactic of "if you beat your son, your father will come; if you beat your father, your grandfather will come."
In this light, Xie Wei has helped Ye Yan solve a major problem. Xie Wei doesn't ask for Ye Yan's gratitude, he only asks that Ye Yan not destroy the world, at which point his agreement with Xie Lan will be fulfilled.
Xie Wei's idea was good, but unfortunately, the results are often not as expected.
The assistant informed Xie Wei that the municipal government was interested in collaborating with Qiyuan on its anti-cancer drugs as a social welfare initiative, so that ordinary people could also access Qiyuan's anti-cancer drugs.
As mentioned before, Xie Wei originally intended to ensure that ordinary people could use these anti-cancer drugs after they were mass-produced. However, Xie Wei is a businessman and should be thinking about how to maximize profits. Cooperating with the government would undoubtedly reduce his own profits to rock bottom.
The assistant understood the situation, but since it involved the government, he had no choice but to let Xie Wei make the decision, but still advised Xie Wei not to agree.
Xie Wei agreed, on the condition that he wanted to speak with the mayor. The assistant was puzzled, but there must be a reason why Xie Wei was doing this, so he went to do as he was told.
The municipal government informed Mayor Mu Qingcheng of this news, and Mu Qingcheng was slightly taken aback when she heard that Xie Wei wanted to see her.
Through the midday sunlight, we can see that this is the same woman who saw Xie Wei drop his pen while working in the city hall.
The mayor's eyes were beautiful and clear, like still spring water, as if he could see right through people's hearts. His face was almost too beautiful.
Normally, one would be overjoyed to hear such news and readily agree, but Mu Qingcheng remained silent and said nothing.
