A conflict that almost escalated into a war between the Rong and Li Families.
Was easily resolved because of the intervention of a young man.
This was truly unexpected.
No matter how unbelievable it seed, this was exactly what happened.
Moreover, during the subsequent banquet, the Rong Sect showed great sincerity to Bai Lan and Ye Qiu.
They handed over a very important project of the Rong Family to the female entrepreneur from Mainland China.
The two smoothly signed the contract at the banquet, establishing a stable and long-term cooperative relationship.
It proves that the Rong Sect really values these two individuals.
"President Bai, pleasure working with you."
"President Rong, pleasure working with you."
Bai Lan smiled, regardless of anything else, the trip to Hong Kong was worthwhile, and her long-cherished wish was finally realized.
Seeing Bai Lan's happy deanor, Ye Qiu was also pleased for her. No matter whether this Rong Sect leader was as righteous as he appeared, at least, as a businessman, he wouldn't joke about an important project.
In short, as of now, the results are favorable.
After signing the contract with the Rong Family, Ye Qiu and Bai Lan stayed at the banquet a little longer before being cordially seen off by the Rong Sect leader.
Back at their residence, Bai Lan was still excited and made a phone call to the mainland company, informing the high-level executives of this good news and instructing them to start the Rong Family business and comnce operations in Hong Kong.
Ye Qiu saw Bai Lan busy with work and did not disturb her.
Huang Zhentian and his n, suffering from organ damage, were still hospitalized, with Cat taking care of them.
Ye Qiu drove there to check their condition.
At the hospital, Huang Zhentian and his n had already awakened, and due to having consud the Blood Cross Potion, their bodies were recovering faster than normal people, and their injuries were almost healed.
"Boss, you still don't know? Our bodies will be fine soon!" Huang Zhentian said with a smile, reassuring Ye Qiu.
"However, boss, I heard from Cat that you stayed in that formation for a long ti. Are you alright? Do you need a check-up?"
Ye Qiu chuckled and replied with Huang Zhentian's own words, "You still don't know my body? I'm completely fine."
Huang Zhentian and his n nodded in agreent, knowing well that the boss's physical condition was far superior to theirs.
"Alright, although you guys recover quickly, the fragile organs injured this ti may have so aftereffects. You need to stay in the hospital for good treatnt for a few more days, and can't be discharged early! Do you hear ? That's an order."
Ye Qiu understood the nature of these tough guys. As soon as they woke up, they were eager to be discharged, and reluctant to stay in the hospital which only showcased their fragility.
"Uh-huh, since the boss has given an order, we have no choice but to comply."
Ye Qiu guessed right; Huang Zhentian and his n, upon waking, clamored to leave the hospital, resentful of the place slling like dicine.
Ye Qiu assured them to rest well, then called Cat out of the ward.
The two walked into the hospital corridor, Ye Qiu glanced at Cat's bandaged arm, injured by the strengthened Hodou.
When Cat noticed Ye Qiu's gaze, he said, "I'm just dealing with superficial wounds, they'll heal in a couple of days, no need to worry, boss."
Even though speaking the truth, Cat's tone seed sowhat dark, perhaps thinking of how he was outmatched by Hodou, feeling he was too weak.
"Cat, do you know why Hodou was able to injure you?" Ye Qiu suddenly brought up the topic.
Cat didn't understand Ye Qiu's point; why could he be injured was obviously because the opponent was stronger, but from the boss's tone, it certainly wasn't to ridicule his weakness, more like asking his opinion on that kid.
Cat thought for a mont and then stated.
"Well… That kid is strong, but his strength is not honed over years of training, as his moves are very crude, lacking any technique, purely a clash of brute force. Plus, when I previously saw him, he was just a typical rich second-generation, his physique wasn't that strong either. Hence I suspect, he might've suddenly gotten so kind of opportunity, rapidly enhancing his strength."
Although Cat wasn't a cultivator sensing the aura and energy fluctuations within others, being a seasoned special forces soldier, battle-hardened, he quickly recognizes an opponent's style and background in combat.
At this point, Cat's remarks were spot-on.
Ye Qiu approvingly nodded, "Indeed, Hodou consud the Blood Cross Potion."
"The Blood Cross Potion?!"
Cat was imdiately shocked. Huang Zhentian and his n's powers surged because of that stuff, leaving him far behind, but Cat loathed the potion as it almost cost him and the boss, those brothers—Huang Zhentian and the gang.
"Exactly, I verified it; the energy waves within that kid are exclusively from consuming the Blood Cross Potion."
"No wonder he could quickly beco such a formidable figure! It's the effect of the Blood Cross Potion."
At this mont, Cat felt relieved; being defeated by a user was not as botherso anymore, since the opponent was purely cheating.
"Mm." Ye Qiu nodded, telling Cat to relieve his worries.
Then, Ye Qiu said, "However, when I searched the Huo Family property, I didn't find the potion nor any signs of a connection to Blood Cross. But that doesn't an they have no ties to Blood Cross."
"Boss, you an…" Cat sensed the boss might have assignnts.
"I an monitor the Huo Family's actions. Once discovering any slight link with Blood Cross, report back to imdiately."
"Understood, boss!" Cat received the order.
"Additionally, while watching over the Huo Family, pay attention to the Hong Kong Rong Family as well. I feel this Rong Sect's inexplicable favor might have ulterior motives."
"Understood, boss! Monitoring one is surveillance, monitoring two is also surveillance."
"Alright, for any issues, call anyti."
After Ye Qiu instructed Cat, he began preparing for the relevant tasks.
Since Ye Qiu was already at the hospital, he recalled pondering earlier about investigating Hodou's potion in the hospital.
Therefore, Ye Qiu proceeded to the inpatient departnt inquiring if soone nad Hodou had ever been admitted.
Unfortunately, the doctors at the inpatient departnt stated that information on VIP patients was confidential, not disclosed without family acknowledgnt.
Realizing the regular route was unfeasible, Ye Qiu used a nifty trick to find Hodou's ward.
Yet, on entering the VIP ward, he found another patient there already, with all traces of Hodou having vanished.
Thus, gathering information from the hospital hit a temporary dead end.
At this point, Ye Qiu received a call from Bai Lan who invited him to return for a celebration marking her successful collaboration.
Ye Qiu gladly accepted, leaving the hospital.
