This was the first time anyone around Kong Sang had been so ruthless, making them a source of great apprehension.
Lan Ye glanced at everyone's expressions and said, "Recently, things have been quite lively in the shady areas of the capital."
“Wei Sheng’s men gathered and went to forcibly take over the property at night. Although they paid money to buy it, it was no different from robbery. The key is that these things were reported to Kong Sang, so no one dared to make a move.”
Country C currently has three gene drug developers, making it a thorn in the side of various countries. Targeting any one of them could allow other countries to take advantage of the situation and poach them, resulting in immeasurable losses.
Therefore, these three individuals are key targets of attention in Country C, and they will not be targeted lightly.
“There’s nothing wrong with that. Fear makes people dread. The young lady needs vicious dogs by her side. If none of us can do it, then someone else certainly can,” Shen Yu said, offering his opinion.
Bai Luo agreed, saying, "That's how it should be. Look around Nie Qu and Nie Jingxing, aren't all their subordinates filled with murderous intent?"
"When it comes to us... pfft, they're either fresh out of college, good-looking celebrities, or sleazy middle-aged doctors. Tsk tsk tsk, they're not even in the same league."
"That man is handsome, rich, good-looking, and incredibly fierce. Isn't he the perfect match for this rich girl... cough cough cough, damn it, are you trying to choke me to death?"
Bai Luo spat out the food in her mouth, glaring hatefully at the audacious Xu Lin, but knowing she had said the wrong thing, she glanced at her true official partner who was drinking silently, and then fell silent.
Upstairs, Kong Sang helped Wei Shengyi bandage her arm: "Your injury... I'll have Yu Wei help you recover."
Wei Shengyi glanced at his still bleeding arm and said nonchalantly, "It's nothing, just a minor injury."
"I've long wanted to develop the black market in other countries, and now, with your name on my side, it's an opportunity."
“Your batch of new shoots has been taken away, but the person who handed them over was very careful. They passed through at least seven or eight hands, and we still don’t know who ordered them. You will probably continue to be blackmailed.”
Kongsang nodded: "No rush, I'm prepared for a protracted battle. Take care of yourself, I need you."
A slight tightness gripped her heart, and a ripple of emotion spread across her pale green eyes: "Does Nie Kongsang know that saying such things to a man will cause misunderstandings, or... are you doing it on purpose?"
"You're so boring. I'm just stating the facts. You're different from the people around me. You're a man who walks the dark side. It's normal for me to need you to solve some things. Do you have to think of it as something ambiguous?"
Wei Shengyi took off his blood-stained shirt, revealing his scarred body, and changed into a comfortable and clean pure white undershirt in front of Kong Sang.
He said casually, "I thought I could steal Lin Changli's woman, but it seems I was just disappointed. What terrible taste you have."
"Go downstairs for a drink. Change your clothes before you go down, they're stained with blood."
Kong Sang remained silent. He was injured but still wanted to drink. However, this was none of her business. It would be ambiguous for her to interfere in everything. She didn't have that intention. It was just that she couldn't do without Wei Shengyi by her side.
When Wei Shengyi came downstairs, everyone paid attention to her. Her looks were indeed top-notch, completely comparable to Lin Changli.
Lin Changli was bewitching and enchanting, while this person was as beautiful as a spirit. Her pale green eyes were full of vitality, but her whole body gave people a stinging feeling of being covered in thorns.
The living room had a long table, with only Kong Sang at the head seat, while Lin Changli, Yu Wei, and the others sat on either side.
After all, it's a dinner party hosted by the Sandi Group, so we should still show some courtesy.
Both rows were already full, so if Wei Shengyi wanted to sit down, he had to go to the back on either side, and that's exactly what happened.
He grabbed a stool, went to the seat in the first position on the side, and placed the stool above Lin Changli to sit down.
"It's a bit cramped, is it easier to move around a bit?"
This isn't just about having too much space; it's a blatant fight for top billing. Everyone watched intently.
Lin Changli didn't even flinch: "If you think it's too crowded, you can eat underground. What about Sangsang?"
"You're still just as difficult to get along with as you were when you were little. Sangsang was changing her clothes, and I accidentally got them dirty."
Holy crap, they knew each other when they were kids? And that tone of voice... this is blatantly stirring up trouble.
Lin Changli stared at him with a deathly gaze, while Wei Shengyi looked back calmly. The tension between the two was palpable, and the onlookers were all on edge.
As soon as Kongsang came downstairs, he saw this scene. These two childish kids, could it be that they were always at odds like this when they were young? Didn't they suffer together and have no brotherly affection?
He moved his chair to make room: "Lin Changli, come sit here. Are you two squeezing rice cakes together?"
The ice broke instantly, and Lin Changli smiled, took a stool and sat down next to Kong Sang in the main seat, not forgetting to retort, "You can sit if you like, this place wasn't originally mine."
Wei Shengyi's smile vanished, and he stared intently at Kong Sang.
Damn it... those two bastards.
He handed her a bottle of juice, saying, "You have an injury on your arm, so don't drink alcohol." Sure enough, Wei Shengyi smiled again, picked up the juice, and took a sip with satisfaction.
He just wanted to provoke Lin Changli and insisted that she cooperate. But lately, she's been trying to get along with him, so being the chairman of the board is really frustrating!
Lin Changli's expression remained unchanged, seemingly unconcerned, but his hand under the table gripped Kong Sang's fingers tightly...
Kong Sang was speechless. He quickly said something polite to end this childish squabble as soon as possible.
"I've gathered everyone here today for nothing special, just to help you remember each other so that you can be more efficient in handling things in the future."
"Gene therapy is now divided into three parts, and we are the weakest of them all. But that's a good thing. The original Nie family circle has split in two because Nie Jingxing and Nie Qu broke up, which has reduced the threat to us considerably."
"But this does not mean we can let our guard down. The Nie family cannot be judged by ordinary standards. I plan to open several more gene drug production bases."
"He Siyu, Lan Ye, Qi Yunshen, and Lin Chang left the four families and stayed in Country C. You can prepare the funds yourselves, and I will provide the manpower to produce the gene drug."
Qi Yunshen adjusted his glasses: "We really shouldn't put all our eggs in one basket. Each of us can come up with the funds, so opening a base is not a problem."
Kong Sang looked at Qi Yun Shen for a while, then suddenly said, "The military already has the Si and Lan families, so I have some advantages. I don't need to worry about them for now."
"On the political side, Minister Qi is somewhat weak. I will focus on this aspect recently and may meet with various parties frequently. I hope that Minister Qi will not overthink anything he hears and will just be putting on an act."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Yu Leisen's amber eyes flickered, and his suspicions became even clearer: going to his school was indeed for a specific purpose.
Qi Yunshen narrowed his long eyes slightly: "Usually when a man says it's just playing around, it means he already has the intention to cheat, but Miss Nie is a woman, and I trust your credibility."
Yu Wei's lips twitched: "What nonsense are you talking about? Kong Sang would never do that."
Kong Sang Tao Hua's eyes flickered slightly, but she didn't explain anything. She raised her glass and laughed with everyone.
I was a little tipsy, so I went to the balcony to get some fresh air. I was feeling a bit lost in thought.
Thinking about the worst-case scenario, if this wasn't a decision made by the Cui family as an individual, but rather by the entire clan, then she should be prepared to eliminate the Cui family.
She needs to find a substitute before that, but she has no cards in her hand. How can she play them?
The cards are here.
