This Buddha statue made of Phoebe zhennan wood was a gift from the CEO of the Zhang Group to my father. That old man is incredibly greedy! He makes it sound so nice, saying it's a Phoebe zhennan wood Buddha statue obtained from a high-ranking monk and can bring peace and wealth.
[Actually, he had soaked this Phoebe zhennan wood in a special medicinal solution for three whole months before carving it into a Buddha statue. Fortunately, my father didn't handle it for long, otherwise his health would have been seriously affected!]
Wood soaked in that special medicinal solution, if in contact for a prolonged period, will affect the body—it will deplete the body and damage vital energy! The effects may not be immediately apparent, but over time, the quantitative change will lead to a qualitative shift, causing illness to strike suddenly and severely, draining all vitality and making recovery impossible!
What a vicious mind!
Who in their right mind would suspect that there's something wrong with the golden nanmu wood?
Yan Chengjun was deeply shocked.
Zhang Zhongxing, the CEO of Zhang's Group, has always been a partner of Yan's Group. It was with this in mind that he accepted Yan's gift without any suspicion.
And he had his assistant Dong return the favor with an even more valuable gift.
Unexpectedly, he wanted to take my life!
But what good would it do him if the Yan family fell?
"Dad, anyone who knows a little about feng shui knows that it's not good to put this Buddha statue here! The person who gave you the Buddha statue definitely has ulterior motives, you have to be careful!"
Yan Miao subtly reminded him.
[Zhang Zhongxing, that old scoundrel, is one of Yan Cheng's cronies. After Yan Cheng betrayed company secrets, the Yan family's reputation suffered greatly, and partners would consider withdrawing their investment. At these times, Zhang Zhongxing would seize the opportunity to negotiate with the Yan family, lowering their prices so he could profit from it!]
That's true; every time company secrets are leaked, the Zhang Group manages to profit from the leak.
But for such a tiny, insignificant gain, he would dare to harm himself?
Yan Chengjun felt that it was probably more than that.
Moreover, Yan Cheng promised him that once the Yan family business was in his hands, future collaborations with the Zhang Group would receive a 10% discount! Tempted by such enormous profits, Zhang Zhongxing was blinded by greed and gave away the Buddha statue, hoping to hasten his father's demise!
"It was my fault for misjudging people. I'm so grateful for my daughter's reminder! Don't worry, I will definitely pay more attention and will send someone to investigate immediately!"
His daughter is his savior!
If it weren't for her, I wouldn't even know I had one foot in the grave!
[It's best to throw this Buddha statue away. The potion on it is extremely rare; even if it were sent for testing, experts wouldn't be able to detect any harmful substances! It seems the Zhang family has a powerful backer!]
Yan Chengjun originally wanted Assistant Dong to take the Buddha statue for inspection, but after hearing what Yan Miao said, he gave up on that idea.
That's right. Zhang Zhongxing dared to kill people so openly because he must have nothing to fear!
He dared to take the risk because he was certain that nothing could be detected from the Buddha statue!
The father and daughter talked for a while, and then Yan Chengjun, seeing that it was time for dinner, took Yan Miao downstairs.
After the two left, Yan Qingqing sneaked out of the lounge next door.
She glanced at the golden nanmu Buddha statue in the trash can outside the door and quietly picked it up.
………
He Yan Ting is a private restaurant favored by the wealthy in Beijing.
Its owner rented an entire small mountain and opened this private restaurant.
He Yan Ting is located at the foot of the mountain, with a large river flowing through the entire restaurant. As soon as you enter, you can hear the clear, melodious sound of the flowing water.
It is melodious and pleasant to the ear, and makes people feel relaxed and happy!
Yan Chengjun brought Yan Miao here for lunch. He Yanting has a special spot for him, so there's no need to make a reservation.
Miaomiao will definitely love the food here!
The restaurant is laid out in a long, narrow shape, with the reception area on the south side of the entrance and the kitchen on the north side.
Connecting the north and south sides of the restaurant is a row of wooden boardwalks, with a stream flowing beneath them.
More than a dozen pavilions have been built on both sides of the boardwalk.
The pavilion is built over the river and is surrounded by bamboo curtains, allowing guests to enjoy the scenery while eating, while also ensuring their privacy.
The buildings are arranged in a staggered pattern and are close to nature, making them popular among the wealthy.
Yan Miao looked around like a curious child. Just as she sat down to express her feelings, she heard a familiar male voice coming from the pavilion next to her.
"Aran, don't misunderstand. What I just said about liking men was all nonsense!"
"I really don't like men!"
Yan Chengjun's hand trembled as he picked up the menu, and Yan Miao quickly steadied his hand, afraid that her father couldn't bear it.
"Dad, I can vouch for you, my older brother really doesn't like men!"
Just then, a gentle breeze blew by the river, lifting most of the bamboo curtain.
Yan Chengjun clearly saw that his eldest son was pulling and tugging at a man in the bamboo pavilion opposite!
He recognized that person too—it was Yan Xu's bodyguard, Shen Yuran!
Yan Chengjun felt his vision go black and he was about to fall to the ground.
Yan Miao quickly caught him and waved to signal the waiter to leave.
"It's not what you think. Why don't we listen to it again...?"
"You don't need to help him hide it from me."
[Beijing is so small, you can bump into someone even while eating out! Bro, I really can't protect you anymore, Dad doesn't believe anything I say now!]
Even if I told him Shen Yuran was a woman, he wouldn't believe me. It's because you and your father both have equally bad eyesight!
It turned out to be a woman!
That was close!
My son almost had to sell his ass!
Yan Chengjun patted his chest, and immediately his hands stopped trembling and his heart calmed down.
He sat down calmly and recommended some delicious dishes to her.
This left Yan Miao completely bewildered.
