Three days later.
Things were finally starting to look clearer. Originally, Su Ying hadn't planned to ask, but since the matter involved Su's Pharmaceuticals, she had to pay attention.
The Su family's pharmaceutical factory was something she had worked so hard to build, and she absolutely couldn't let it go to waste and disappear without a trace, just like it did more than ten years ago.
Now everything is open, and there is freedom to do business. We will no longer be accused of cutting off the tail of capitalism.
She rationalized everything; she wouldn't allow Su's Pharmaceuticals, which had been resurrected under her care, to run into trouble again.
We absolutely cannot allow Su's Pharmaceuticals to be ruined in her hands.
"So, why is Lion King Pharmaceuticals impersonating our medicine and even using the exact same packaging? What are they trying to do?"
The basic outline of the matter had been established, and Gu Sinian had no intention of hiding anything from her.
"That's roughly how it is... The reason why Lion King Pharmaceuticals has a fixed daily production volume is just to make a sample. All of it is exported to black factories to make the exact same thing and put on the Su family's brand."
At this point, even the slow-witted Su Ying understood the implication: "They're trying to ruin my reputation."
"Not necessarily. After all, most of their products are exported. They are just taking advantage of the Su family's influence. Su family pharmaceuticals has been around for a century. Not only do Chinese people know this brand, but foreigners also know it very well."
"If that's the case, I can't hold anyone else responsible."
"I'm afraid it's not that simple. I suspect they've done something else. Maybe these ineffective patches are just a smokescreen, and their real purpose is to make a fortune."
Su Ying wasn't stupid; she understood what was going on now that things had come to this point.
"So you mean this ineffective medicine isn't actually being exported, but just a front for exporting, with the real purpose of making money, no... to be more precise, money laundering?"
Gu Sinian nodded his heavy head. "Yes, that's roughly what you think it means."
"Can we arrest them?"
The man shook his head. "It's hard to say without concrete evidence, and arresting someone would be even more difficult."
"After all, Lion King Pharmaceuticals earned its money through normal transactions, so it's not easy to convict them."
"Our focus now is not on the medicated patches they sell abroad under the guise of legitimate sales, but on what they are trying to do by using this method to channel large amounts of money into the market."
"After all, money laundering is a complicated matter... If the money comes from illegitimate sources, the problem is that they might engage in illegal activities, which would be troublesome."
"That's true... Using Lion King to launder money on a large scale, the money comes from a legitimate source, but where to invest such a large sum of money is also a problem."
"This is also a very troublesome matter... My father-in-law said that we can't control things abroad, but we have to investigate things in China."
“If the money is laundered and it comes from a legitimate source, it’s fine to invest it in the market and do legitimate business. The real problem is that people might use Lion King to launder money and engage in illegal activities. We have to address the issue at its source.”
You mean the Lion King?
"That's right. The most important thing is to find out where all the money the Lion King received went."
"That's right."
Suddenly realizing what was happening, Su Ying shuddered. "You're telling me something so confidential? What are you up to?"
The man smiled, thinking how clever his wife was, immediately understanding what was going on.
"Lion King Pharmaceuticals is too difficult to conquer. My men have been waiting outside for several days, but we just can't find an opportunity to get in."
"So you want to borrow my space?"
"Nothing can be hidden from the lady."
"But didn't you already send people to keep an eye on things? Won't we be noticed if we suddenly go in?"
"Don't worry. I've already spoken with my men. Tonight, I'll go in alone and take a look. They'll all leave to avoid alerting them."
Gu Sinianshi was most afraid of her revealing her private space in front of others. The fact that she brought it up today must mean that Lion King Pharmaceuticals was hiding some secret. Otherwise, how could such an excellent soldier not be able to win her over?
The soldiers who usually get to handle matters for Gu Sinian are definitely one in a million. If they can't get past this one, there must be some tricks involved.
"Alright, when do we set off?"
"Tonight."
"Alright then. I'll stay up tonight and go with you on this adventure."
"Okay. While there's still time, you should take a nap and catch up on your sleep."
This was tough on Su Ying; it wasn't even dark yet, and she couldn't fall asleep at all.
"No need. I'm not sleepy. I can't sleep."
Gu Sinian chuckled upon hearing this, and his hand restlessly touched Su Ying's wrist, his eyes telling her... he wanted to eat... a person.
Su Ying swallowed hard, thinking that the man was already quite old, yet his energy was still so vigorous.
The man's body drew closer and closer, but Su Ying pushed him away.
"What are you doing in broad daylight... You've used up all your energy, what will you do if you don't have the strength to go to the Lion King for inspection tonight?"
Gu Sinian was taken aback, not expecting that someone could come up with such an interesting word from a wife-like face.
He pinched Su Ying's chin and said, "You underestimate me too much. You know perfectly well how good my stamina is."
She knew it clearly... but Gu Sinian didn't know how to control herself at all in this kind of thing. She was too ruthless. She didn't know what would happen to the man afterward. She knew what her own fate would be.
"Let's not do this kind of thing. You can't be so cruel as to... bring me into Lion King Pharmaceuticals when I'm completely exhausted. I haven't rested enough, I'm physically weak, and my brain isn't processing what I'm doing. What if something goes wrong?"
Gu Sinian was taken aback. He hadn't thought that far ahead. He had been thinking about doing something bad, but now that he thought about it carefully, he decided against it. It wouldn't make a difference if he waited a while; there would be plenty of time in the future.
"I won't touch you. If you really can't sleep, just close your eyes and get some rest."
"good."
Su Ying wasn't sleepy at first, but she fell asleep soon after, probably because she'd been too busy lately.
By the time the man woke her up, it was already dark, and the two of them were looking at the entrance of Lion King Pharmaceuticals from a short distance away.
How are we going to get in later?
Gu Sinian glanced at the situation and frowned. "There seem to be more guards than usual today. Does a small pharmaceutical company really need so many security guards?"
Su Ying nodded in agreement, "It is indeed very strange. This small pharmaceutical company, which is not even as big as my Su's Pharmaceutical Company, needs so many security guards?"
"Su's Pharmaceutical Company only has a few security guards, but it looks like there must be at least ten people at the main gate."
"Not only that... there are so many people today, how are we going to sneak in?"
"Because there are so many people here today, we are one step closer to the truth."
Gu Sinian nodded in agreement, "That's right. Today might be a crucial step in uncovering the truth, which is how to get in without being discovered."
