Chapter 112 - His Love
Chapter 112 - His Love
The "smuggling" of new drugs from Huichuan Base back to make "generic drugs" was of course planned by Yu Zhou and directly participated in by Ning Fei.
If he had reported this to Yue Fengping in advance, Yu Zhou might have won the argument, but he adhered to the idea of "less trouble is worse than more" and did not inform Yue Fengping at all. If he didn't say it, it would be even more impossible for Ning Fei to say it over his shoulder. Therefore, Huichuan’s drugs were secretly circulated to Huichuan, and Yue Fengping, the commander-in-chief of the base, was really unaware of it.
And now Duan Yunhong directly revealed the truth. When Yue Fengping looked at Yu Zhou and Ning Fei in surprise, the two of them looked at each other.
Yu Zhou: What kind of foul-mouthed lover have you found? You can’t even control her.
Ning Fei: You should go have dinner with him.
The former teacher and student tacitly pushed the blame to each other in their hearts, then one looked up at the sky and the other looked up at the ground. When Yue Fengping saw Yu Zhou like this, he roughly guessed what was going on. This was not the first or second time that Yu Zhou had been doing something tricky behind his back. Now that Duan Yunhong and Ning Fei were present, Yue Fengping did not want to accuse Yu Zhou in front of them, so he replied: "I am not too sure about what Director Duan is talking about. But since you have come all the way here to ask, I will definitely help investigate, don't worry. It's just that it's not convenient to handle this matter here tonight, come to my office tomorrow and we can discuss it in detail?"
Not admitting, not denying, and not questioning the most suspicious companion on the spot, this is a standard delaying tactic. When Yue Fengping goes back tonight and discusses his "confession" with Yu Zhouyi, it's hard to say what his attitude will be tomorrow. Even if Duan Yunhong was not clear about Yu Zhou's methods, he was very clear about the managers' usual style. When you encounter an adverse event where you are not clear about the circumstances, first use soothing words, then clarify the facts privately, and then convert it into a handling method that has the least impact on yourself, and in the end everyone will be happy.
Duan Yunhong didn't want them to have such an easy time. He was about to say something when Ning Fei suddenly interrupted, "What are you investigating? Director Duan said that Huichuan's medicine was brought to Tianyue secretly. It's just words without any evidence. Do you have any evidence?"
As soon as these words came out, Duan Yunhong looked at him quickly.
Although Duan Yunhong did not expect these people to admit it at first, he originally wanted to at least let these people have a fight so that they would not be so united. Unexpectedly, Ning Fei didn't bother to be polite with him, skipped the discussion phase, and went straight into the "cheating" phase.
Upon hearing this, Yu Zhou slightly raised his eyebrows, but said nothing and made no unnecessary movements.
"You're asking me for evidence?" Duan Yunhong asked coldly, "Are you sure?"
"Otherwise? What do you mean? Then I said that people from Huichuan stole ten shotguns from me. Will Huichuan compensate me?" Ning Fei sneered. He was not afraid of Duan Yunhong's accusations. The medicine was given to him privately by Duan Yunhong, and he did not go through the registration process like a clinical volunteer. Ning Fei even suspected that Duan Yunhong's medicine was also privately packaged from the research institute and did not follow the procedures.
If Duan Yunhong dared to question him face to face, Ning Fei would dare to deny it in person. If Duan Yunhong produced physical evidence such as videos and audios, Ning Fei would not be afraid and would directly report it to Huichuan. It would be best to remove Duan Yunhong from the position of director of the institute. The lower the position, the less trouble he will have.
Duan Yunhong also quickly guessed Ning Fei's thoughts and narrowed his eyes slightly: "If Tianyue 'develops' the same external medicine as Huichuan in the future, would you dare to say it is a coincidence?"
"Why don't you dare to say it?" This time Yu Zhou also spoke, calmly and confidently, more so than Ning Fei, "No coincidence, no story, it is possible that it is such a coincidence. Besides, what is 'same'? Same ingredients but different proportions, is this called 'same' in the pharmaceutical industry?"
It is indeed difficult to define patent infringement for generic drugs.
Besides, in today's world, even if Huichuan's research institute is granted a patent, Tianyue is likely to obtain a compulsory license. Duan Yunhong was well aware of these principles, so he did not expect to collect any patent fees or money from drug sales. He just wanted to earn some "impression points" for Huichuan to lay the foundation for his future image as a "savior".
However, now, Ning Fei and Yu Zhou seem to not want Huichuan to enjoy this honor alone.
——Tsk, I shouldn’t have given him the medicine in the first place.
This thought occasionally crossed Duan Yunhong's mind, but he didn't regret it. He just gave it. He couldn't stand up to the two debt collectors, so he turned to look at Yue Fengping: "Commander Yue thinks so too?"
Yu Zhou turned his head and glanced at Yue Fengping. Yue Fengping was silent for a few seconds and replied, "I don't know the ins and outs of what you are talking about, so I can't comment."
What a great sentence: "No comment without knowing the full story." This sounds neutral, but it actually means taking sides. No matter how upright Yue Fengping is, he knows what is good and what is bad, not to mention the difference between relatives and strangers.
Yu Zhou was very satisfied, while Ning Fei pretended to blink innocently while looking at Duan Yunhong.
“…”Duan Yunhong suddenly wanted to laugh.
I'm not laughing out of anger, I just think the situation is a bit interesting and humorous. He now finally began to realize how much trouble it would be when two capable and well-coordinated debt collectors joined forces.
——But it’s also more interesting.
***
The atmosphere of this "welcoming banquet" was a bit weird, but overall it ended smoothly. After all, Ning Fei and Yu Zhou are here, and as long as they don't want to make the atmosphere too awkward, they can always have a normal chat.
To be precise, it was a performance of "normal chat" for Yue Fengping alone.
After dinner, Yue Fengping went to pay the bill and no one argued with him. While he was paying, Yu Zhou stuffed a small appliance and a big bag into Ning Fei's hand. Duan Yunhong took a quick look and saw it was a capsule coffee machine and a large box of coffee capsules.
"I almost forgot to give it to you. You thought beans were troublesome, but capsules are simpler." Yu Zhou didn't care that Ning Fei couldn't take it, and directly pushed it to him, "I also got a few good cigarettes and a toaster, I'll give them to you tomorrow."
Ning Fei was speechless: "What a hot knowledge. I have hands and feet. I can buy food and cigarettes by myself. I won't starve to death."
"No. Yue Fengping's comrades asked for these, so I got them. You must have them too." Yu Zhou snorted and laughed, "Whether you want them or not, I will get them for you anyway."
Ning Fei raised an eyebrow: "It seems that I have no right to refuse."
"Yes, very smart." Yu Zhou patted his face lightly, "Okay, go back. Report to me tomorrow. God doesn't keep idle people."
Ning Fei said: "Then I need to get some wine. Didn't his comrade say he wanted to drink? It doesn't matter, I want to drink."
"You are so straightforward." Yu Zhouyi smiled, "But I think it's okay. I'll give it to you when I get it."
"It's settled then." Ning Fei was saying this when Yue Fengping came back. When he saw what Ning Fei was holding, he didn't react much, and even sighed: "If Yu Zhou didn't remember it, I wouldn't remember it either. Fortunately, I almost left the things in the hotel."
"It doesn't matter. After all, this is a restaurant opened by the family of your comrade-in-arms. They can't steal our things." Yu Zhou waved his hand, "Let's go. Although you can drink a lot, you still need to be careful when driving."
The four of them said goodbye to each other, and Ning Fei and Duan Yunhong returned to the Hummer. Ning Fei always drove in the Tianyue Base. He threw all the things into the back seat before getting into the driver's seat.
This time, Duan Yunhong watched him fasten his seat belt and suddenly said, "You said Yu Zhou is in love, but I think Yue Fengping is more like his toy."
"...Hmm?" Ning Fei was distracted halfway through the sentence and turned to look at him, "You mean 'toy'? It's okay, didn't you see that he always thinks about Yue Fengping?"
"This is just his 'entertainment project'." Duan Yunhong looked ahead and said calmly, "He does seem to be wholeheartedly for Yue Fengping. I admit that there is emotion in his eyes when he looks at Yue Fengping, but this does not conflict with his control over Yue Fengping. The reason he gave you the thing is that Yue Fengping's comrades-in-arms wanted it, and his friends also had to have it. This shows that even if he is willing to pay for Yue Fengping, he is calculating in his heart, and he doesn't want to suffer a loss."
"That's enough. They can date however they want. It has nothing to do with you. Why are you still criticizing them?" Ning Fei started the car and said in a cold tone, "Are you planning to ruin their relationship? Once they stop dating, Yu Zhou will have no motivation to work hard for Yue Fengping, and you will be able to win the competition between us more easily?"
"I'm just describing what I saw. I was wondering before, since Yu Zhou was in love with the kind of guy who was in love with ordinary people in the mission world, why would you be willing to help such a person wholeheartedly. Now it seems that he is not that stupid love-brained." Duan Yunhong replied, "What he calls 'dating' is not much different from us finding someone in these worlds to have a fixed P-friend relationship for a period of time. Yue Fengping should have been completely controlled by his 'love magic', haha, it's also quite happy to be kept in the dark."
"Who said 'we' to you? Don't put me in the same category as you." Ning Fei glared at him, "I don't want to compare my actions with his either. Don't bring me into this, thank you."
Duan Yunhong looked at him: "What would you do if I really destroyed their relationship?"
"No matter what, I can't control what you want to do." Ning Fei raised an eyebrow, "Do you think I will stop you from ruining Yu Zhou's relationship with righteous words? You are wrong. It is none of my business whether he is dating or not, who he is dating, or whether they break up or not. He can fight his own 'battle to defend his love', what does it have to do with me?"
As Duan Yunhong listened, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind and he stared at Ning Fei's face.
Ning Fei noticed his movements: "What are you doing? Speak if you have something to say."
"...Nothing." Duan Yunhong obviously didn't intend to tell the truth, and changed the subject, "I just suddenly felt that your style of doing things is a bit similar to Yu Zhou's."
"Really?" Ning Fei didn't refute. "It's not surprising that he looks like that. He taught me before."
Duan Yunhong didn't expect to hear this and was a little surprised: "He is your teacher?"
"That's what he calls himself, but he's actually more like a senior in the workplace. When I first became a debt collector, he coached me for a while." Ning Fei didn't think these things were a big secret, since many people in the Administration knew about them. "I didn't try to imitate him on purpose. I just think his methods and style are really efficient, so I also adopted a high-efficiency approach. But Yu Zhou often spends his luck casually like you do, and I don't agree with that. I still prefer a more cost-effective approach."
"Then I guess your speech skills must have been inspired by him." Duan Yunhong said, "He looks like that, but his speech and behavior styles are so inconsistent. It must be easy for others to be deceived by his face."
"He can pretend, but he just doesn't want to. Isn't it annoying to pretend when you're in a relationship?" Ning Fei said calmly, "As for whether his face matches his personality, who set the standard? No one has the time to follow those, and it's not your turn to be a judge and give a score."
Duan Yunhong asked, "Did you get shot? What made you so angry about discussing your colleagues? You were not polite when you commented on Chonglin last time."
"Because he is a traitor who was bought by your small favors, a fool." Ning Fei sneered, "I'm not angry, I just don't want to discuss it. He and I are on the same front now, why should I discuss my partner with you, my opponent? I'm not stupid."
"'Partner'..." Duan Yunhong repeated. Ning Fei thought he was going to make another annoying comment, but there was no follow-up. Duan Yunhong remained silent.
Ning Fei glanced at him calmly and found that he was tilting his head to look at the moving scenery outside the window, motionless.
Ning Fei stopped talking, and the Hummer passed through the base in silence.
