"Li An, I've long heard of your name." Shen Zhongjin said politely.
Shen Qinghuan smiled slightly, let go of her hand and sat down.
"This is Dr. Li An's student, Wendy."
Shen Zhongjin shook hands with Wendy again.
After everyone got to know each other, the waiter started serving wine and food.
Quan Shiyan and Shen Zhongjin were talking, and Shen Zhongjin's eyes looked at Shen Qinghuan from time to time.
“Mr. Shen can take a look at our research and development results over the years.”
Shen Qinghuan handed the information he had sorted out to Shen Zhongjin.
Shen Zhongjin took it and flipped through it.
In fact, when choosing a partner, he had already investigated Quan's achievements in the pharmaceutical industry over the years. Almost all of the most effective drugs were developed by Li An.
The Shen family is one of the largest and most powerful families in Beijing, with a wide range of businesses, including medicine, jewelry and other industries.
In recent years, medical research and development has not been as good as before, and several research and development projects have failed. In addition, with the increase in market competitiveness, Shen Zhongjin had to make strategic changes.
Shen Qinghuan approached his work with meticulous attention to detail, seriousness, and a serious demeanor. "Next, I plan to develop a new anti-cancer drug targeting brain tumors and cancer... This research requires a huge initial investment, so I'll be forming a team and establishing an independent laboratory..."
Shen Qinghuan finished explaining his plans and needs, and left the rest to Quan Shiyan to discuss.
After listening to her, Shen Zhongjin nodded slightly.
"Your name is Shen Qinghuan?"
Shen Qinghuan nodded. It seemed that he didn't hear her name clearly just now.
Shen Zhongjin smiled gently, "Excuse me, is Miss Shen a local? Who are your family members?"
Does this also require investigating the family information of R&D personnel?
However, these kinds of questions would also be asked during interviews and resume submissions, so Shen Qinghuan didn't think much about it.
"I'm a local, and I have grandparents at home."
She didn't want to recognize either the Shen family's adoptive parents or the Xia family's biological parents, so she simply skipped them.
Shen Zhongjin: "Where are your parents?"
"Dead."
Well, just consider it dead.
Quan Shiyan raised his eyebrows.
"Mr. Shen, I'll toast you a glass." Quan Shiyan picked up the wine glass and interrupted Shen Zhongjin's continued questioning.
Shen Zhongjin and Quan Shiyan drank a cup and then smiled.
"I'm sorry, Miss Shen, I thought you looked like an old friend of mine, so I asked a few more questions."
Shen Qinghuan smiled politely: "It's okay."
Although Shen Zhongjin asked a few personal questions, it didn't make her particularly uncomfortable.
Next, Quan Shiyan and Shen Zhongjin were toasting each other throughout the whole process. In the middle, Shen Zhongjin would also ask Shen Qinghuan and Wendy questions about research and development, and both of them answered from a professional perspective.
After the dinner, Shen Zhongjin admired Shen Qinghuan very much.
He had heard of Li An's fame before, and like everyone else, he thought that Li An must be very old to be able to reach the professor level.
But I didn't expect that when I saw her today, she would be such a young woman.
Shen Zhongjin and Quan Shiyan were both a little staggering from drinking.
"Let's stop here today. I'll send someone to pick up Mr. Shen to visit the company tomorrow." Quan Shiyan asked his assistant to support Shen Zhongjin.
Shen Zhongjin put down his hand and asked his secretary to support him.
"Okay, Mr. Quan, I can't hold my liquor well, I'll drink with you next time."
“I’ll take Mr. Shen.”
"Need not."
Shen Zhongjin was helped away by his secretary, and Quan Shiyan was also helped away by his assistant.
Seeing that Quan Shiyan had almost finished drinking, Shen Qinghuan instructed his assistant: "You send him back first, we will take a taxi."
Assistant: "Okay, be careful."
Quan Shiyan fell asleep as soon as he got in the car.
On the other side, after Shen Zhongjin got in the car, his squinting eyes opened, and there was no trace of drunkenness in them anymore.
He has a good alcohol tolerance and most people can't get him drunk, but he never drinks too much and only drinks when he's drunk enough.
He adjusted his suit and tie, took out his cell phone and made a call.
It took a long time for the other end to answer the call.
"Yike."
"What's wrong? Brother." Shen Yike's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Shen Zhongjin's expression was serious, and his tone was also serious: "How did you meet your sister in S City?"
Shen Yike was puzzled. "Didn't I tell you? My sister was drugged at the party and fell into the elevator I was riding in. I saw that she looked a lot like my mother when she was young, so I took care of her for one night. Afterwards, I even did a paternity test."
Shen Zhongjin frowned.
Listening to it again, everything seems normal and there is nothing wrong.
When the younger sister was recognized, they also did a paternity test to prove that she was their biological sister who was left behind.
But... why does the Shen Qinghuan I met today look so much like my sister?
"Brother, why are you asking this?" Shen Yike felt that something was wrong with his brother.
Shen Zhongjin: "Nothing, I'm on a business trip in S City and will be back in a few days."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Zhongjin looked at the scenery of S City outside the car window. Somehow, he always had a strange feeling in his heart.
"Xiao Zhou."
The secretary driving the car responded, "Yeah."
Shen Zhongjin: "Do you think there are two people in the world who look exactly alike?"
Xiao Zhou: "Yes, I was reading gossip a few days ago and saw that several online celebrities looked very similar to a certain celebrity. Some of their children even looked alike. Netizens even joked that even the celebrities themselves couldn't give birth to such similar children."
Shen Zhongjin frowned even deeper.
At the Shen family, Shen Wanning sat up from the bed in shock.
"What did you say? Xia Jing is the daughter of the Shen family in Beijing?"
Are you kidding me?
That little bitch Xia Jing is clearly Wang Cuifen's daughter, how could she suddenly become the daughter of the Shen family in Beijing who was stranded outside?
The Shen family in Beijing is a prominent family that cannot be compared with ten Shen families in S City.
No wonder Xia Jing suddenly left S City and suddenly participated in such a popular variety show. It was as if her life was on the rise.
Next time, she might be able to snatch her position as the best actress.
It was only after Shen Wanning saw the trending searches about Xia Jing's participation in the variety show that he asked someone to investigate the matter.
"are you sure?"
On the other end of the phone: "Confirmed, the Shen family even held a banquet to introduce her identity to the world."
Shen Wanning almost couldn't hold her phone steady. She bit her lip and said, "You continue to investigate how Xia Jing became the daughter of the Shen family."
"yes."
Shen Wanning could be very sure that Xia Jing was definitely not some daughter of the Shen family in Beijing who had wandered around.
She grew up with Xia Jing in the Xia family, and she knew very well what Xia Jing was like.
Xia Jing's number has been changed, and she has no way to contact Xia Jing directly now.
But... the corners of Shen Wanning's mouth suddenly curled up, and things seemed to be getting interesting.
Xia Jing became the daughter of the Shen family in Beijing, and she knew so many of Xia Jing's secrets.
Now that Yu Beiting won’t help her, she can go to Xia Jing.
Shen Wanning's heart came alive again.
The night is very quiet, and there are laughter and joy in Jingshan Villa.
Shen Qinghuan heard the noise inside at the door.
