After Wei Zhonghua left, the two middle-aged men sitting in the corner exchanged glances, a hint of surprise flashing across their eyes. Then they stood up and walked towards the exit.

The pair stepped out of the conference room and looked around to ensure no one was nearby before heading toward the safety exit.

At the safety exit, one man kept watch while the other took a few steps down, dialing a phone call. He whispered: "Young Master Zhang, it seems there's been a change in circumstances..." Then they recounted what had just transpired.

"Tiger Mountain Group Are you sure you haven't misunderstood"

After hearing their report, Young Master Zhang from the other end of the line pondered for a moment before speaking.

"No mistake. We were all nearby when he called; it's definitely correct!" The two men replied respectfully over the phone.

"Alright, put this plan on hold for now. I'll let you know when to proceed!"

The person on the other end of the line heard their decisive response and then continued giving instructions a moment later.

In a luxurious villa in Yang City, a man in his thirties was sitting in an armchair with a glass of red wine. Opposite him sat a woman around twenty years old, also holding a glass of wine as she watched the man talking on the phone.

The man hung up the call and frowned deeply.

"Brother Zhang, how's that company going When can we take it over"

The woman noticed the man hanging up and furrowing his brow; her heart raced as she approached him with a flirtatious smile. She asked gently while massaging his shoulders.

"We'll discuss this matter in a few days." Hearing the woman's question, he lowered his head for a moment before looking at her.

"Why Brother Zhang said it was almost successful last time!" The woman was startled and immediately asked anxiously upon hearing that the plan had been delayed.

She couldn't help but feel anxious about this delay, as the man had promised her she would be appointed general manager if the acquisition succeeded. This change made her sense an ominous premonition in her heart.

The man didn't speak but narrowed his eyes, giving the woman a glance.

Seeing the man's gaze, the woman trembled all over and quickly stopped talking. She had just seen merciless coldness in the man’s eyes. It was then that she remembered this man did not like others questioning his decisions.

The man saw that the woman had stopped speaking and retracted his gaze, closing his eyes as he leaned against the chair.

“Tiger Mountain Group Ah……” He wasn't willing to give up either but he was unwilling to take a gamble. The call earlier hadn’t been very specific, but it still made him have to think carefully about it.

This was also why he had decided to wait for a few days and see how things panned out before making any decisions. Otherwise, if there really were ties between this Tiger Mountain Group and the matter at hand, wouldn’t that be pointless

The man lay on the chair, enjoying the woman’s massage as though he was asleep.

Seeing Chapter Young Master seemed to have fallen asleep, the woman slowly let go of her hands and walked toward the door.

"If you act recklessly, do you know what the consequences will be" As she reached the doorway, the man lying on the chaise longue spoke in a voice that was devoid of any emotion, without even opening his eyes.

"N-no... Chapter Young Master, it’s a misunderstanding! I’m just going to use the restroom!" Standing at the door, the woman nervously explained with an awkward expression on her face.

The man didn’t open his eyes as he coldly snorted. "Hmm… It would be best if you don't." Finished speaking, he fell silent and seemed truly asleep now.

Seeing that the man had stopped talking, the woman patted her chest before she walked out of the room.

In the afternoon, Wan Sheng Tang. Xiao Yu was seeing patients when Wei Jun arrived.

"Xiao Yu!" After entering, Wei Jun shouted to Xiao Yu who was taking a patient's pulse and then found somewhere to sit down.

After waiting for a while until Xiao Yu finished the consultation with his patient, he asked Wei Jun, "Brother Jun, what are you doing here so early"

Xiao Yu had looked at his watch after seeing this patient and realized it was only three in the afternoon. He then said to Wei Jun.

"Ah, don’t mention it! I can't stay home; you know how powerful Tiger Mountain Group is! Now I’m having dinner at the boss’s house, how could I be calm

The Wei Army heaved a sigh after hearing Xiao Yu's words and spoke.

After Wei Zhonghua returned from the company, he told Wei Army that there was a crisis at the company. Since Wei Army would soon start working at the company, upon his arrival, he could surely sense something amiss.

Hence, Wei Zhonghua decided to inform Wei Army about this crisis as well as let him experience some matters since the son had grown up. Another reason was that Wei Army would meet Song Hushan tonight, which might be an opportunity for their company.

Wei Zhonghua naturally had his sources of information and thus roughly knew where the current crisis at the company originated from. However, he didn't know exactly who orchestrated it.

But if their company was somehow related to Song Hushan's company, whoever wanted to cause trouble for them would have to think twice about it. This is why Wei Army was so eager to come here after hearing Xiao Yu’s words.

"Haha........." Upon hearing Wei Army's words, Xiao Yu burst out laughing.

Simultaneously, Xiao Yu felt secretly pleased that Wei Army didn't change their relationship due to this matter. This was what he hoped for as well; he valued the bond between him and Wei Army very much. He certainly did not want their relationship to change because of such trivial matters.

Since it was still early, they chatted in the clinic. Moreover, Xiao Hongyang had already contacted the apprentice Yuan Chao previously, who should arrive soon.

Around four o'clock in the afternoon, a taxi stopped by the roadside outside Wan Sheng Tang. A young man carrying several bags walked in.

"Doctor Xiao! I'm here!" The young man took one look at the entrance and entered Wan Sheng Tang, walking to where Doctor Xiao Hongyang was seeing patients and said to him.

"Oh, heh, Yuan Chao is here. This fellow is also a doctor named Xiao, my master, and also the boss of this Wan Sheng Tang!"

Xiao Hongyang looked at the dusty Yuan Chao who had just arrived and introduced him to Xiao Yu.

"Master, this is Yuan Chao whom I told you about. He’s quite skilled in prescription preparation as well!" After saying that, Xiao Hongyang pointed at Yuan Chao and said to Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu looked at the Yuan Chao before him; he was around 24 or 25 years old with a crew cut that made him look neat and clean. Although Yuan Chao was close in age to Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu exuded an aura of maturity and steadiness compared to him. Additionally, there was also an indescribable air about Xiao Yu.

If one paid closer attention to the atmosphere surrounding Xiao Yu, they would find that his demeanor gave off a sense of inexplicable solemnity and righteousness.

"Doctor Xiao, nice to meet you! I’m Yuan Chao. Please instruct me whenever there's anything."

When Yuan Chao heard Xiao Hongyang's introduction, he quickly walked in front of Xiao Yu and bowed deeply to him before respectfully saying the following.

Yuan Chao looked at the current Xiao Yu. When Xiao Hongyang asked him to come to the deep sea area, his father and elder brother had already told him about Wan Sheng Hall as well as Xiao Yu's identity, so he immediately recognized Xiao Yu when he came in.

The other day when Xiao Hongyang talked about what he used to plan for Yuan Chao, Xiao Yu remained silent. He let everything happen naturally. If this Yuan Chao could truly carry on the legacy of traditional Chinese medicine, then he wouldn't mind Xiao Hongyang taking him as a disciple.

Therefore, when Yuan Chao bowed respectfully to him just now, he didn't stop it. Unlike other places, the world of traditional Chinese medicine was very particular about ancient rules and regulations.

Although this era had changed, some people no longer cared much about these rules, but if you wanted to learn TCM, going to your master's place without following any rules wouldn't earn anyone's favor to accept you as their disciple.

If it was just the relationship between a regular employee and boss, Xiao Yu would definitely have stopped Yuan Chao from being so respectful towards him. But Yuan Chao had been with Xiao Hongyang for several years and he planned on taking him in after another two-year probation period; this is why Xiao Yu didn't stop Yuan Chao's act of bowing.

If you wanted to learn TCM, you needed to first understand the rules. Although these rules might seem outdated to some young people, they were very important in the world of traditional Chinese medicine.

"Hongyang, take Yuan Chao and put his stuff down somewhere. Arrange everything for him. He has been through a lot on this trip; let him rest properly in the afternoon. I have something to do tonight, so you take him out to eat something nice. Erxi should go too! Let them get familiar with each other!"

Xiao Yu instructed Xiao Hongyang.

After saying that, he looked at Liu Erxi and said: "Erxi, your salary will rise to three thousand from now on; Yuan Chao's is four thousand. If one day you catch up with Yuan Chao’s level, I’ll also raise your wages to the same as his. Don't underestimate Yuan Chao! He has been in this business for five or six years and far surpasses your abilities. You should learn more from him!"

"Yes, Doctor Xiao." Liu Erxi respectfully answered Xiao Yu. Although his expression was very calm, the faint smile on his face revealed that he was currently in a good mood.

Indeed, Liu Erxi felt quite satisfied. Although there was still a one-thousand-yuan gap between Yuan Chao’s and his current salary, it wasn’t small either. This was something he hadn't even dared to think about when working at another store previously.

In addition, since coming to Wan Sheng Hall just two or three months ago, his wage had already become several times higher than what he used to earn at the other place.

Now that their family had been relocated out of a garbage dump and moved into an over ten-square-meter basement apartment, with them being able to sometimes have meat for meals, Liu Erxi felt very content.

Xiao Hongyang led Yuan Chao to the rest room so he could take a nap in the afternoon before officially starting work tomorrow.

At around 5:30 p.m., Xiao Yu and Wei Jun left together by car, heading towards Qing Shan Villa.ese medicines every few years.Hearing Xiao Yu's words, Lǐ Suíjūn and the others nodded; they never knew about this before. When Xiao Yu’s grandfather handed over the communal dish to them back then, h...
