In the midst of the warm applause from the audience in the eting room, the plump-faced director bead with a rosy glow.
Ji Wei, whose gaze was very cold, stood up calmly, not saying a word, and walked directly toward Shen Qiang who was standing at the door.
"Is the pledge you made before still valid?"
Ji Wei asked as he walked out of the eting room.
Shen Qiang smiled and said, "The doors of Heshenghe are wide open to you."
Glancing at the people in the eting room who were eagerly flattering the director, Ji Wei said, "I only accept orders from you alone, I cannot tolerate a second person giving directions regardless of right or wrong."
Hearing this, Shen Qiang's eyes crinkled with a smile, "No problem, I guarantee you will get exceptional treatnt at Heshenghe."
Ji Wei nodded, glanced at Xiu Ju standing behind Shen Qiang, and said, "She is a witness. If you cannot keep your promise, then do not bla for turning my face and showing no rcy."
Shen Qiang laughed: "One witness is not enough, all the demons of Heshenghe can bear witness, provided you can defeat them."
"No problem," Ji Wei said coldly.
Shen Qiang nodded contentedly, "Let's go."
Ji Wei followed Shen Qiang in silence.
They had just reached the downstairs.
An ambulance from the ntal health facility labeled '120' was already parked there.
Pushing past the ntal health doctors and the reporters who were trying to crowd around, Shen Qiang led Ji Wei to his car.
"Mr. Shen, are you personally going to treat this psychiatric patient?"
"Mr. Shen, are you switching fields to focus on psychiatric diseases?"
"Mr. Shen, where are you taking him?"
Shen Qiang, surrounded, helplessly rolled down the car window and looked at the reporters coldly, "He will beco a blood sample research consultant for Heshenghe Company. His mind is more normal than all of yours. Now, please step aside, or I will have my lawyers send you all to court."
After speaking,
Shen Qiang closed the car window and, paying no attention to the reporters or the doctors from the ntal health facility, drove out of the Red Queen District Blood Station Health Clinic.
Xiu Ju, sitting in the passenger seat, glanced curiously in the rear-view mirror at Ji Wei, who sat calmly in the back seat, and said, "I'm curious, why do you not doubt at all that Shen Qiang is behind this?"
Ji Wei, sitting in the back seat, looked up calmly at Xiu Ju and said, "What difference does it make who is behind it? They suspended my duties and were going to lock up in a ntal health facility. Do you think I had a choice?"
Xiu Ju's tone imdiately turned sharp, "You're joining Heshenghe out of desperation, should we trust you?"
Ji Wei calmly looked out of the window and replied, "This is just a transaction. Shen Qiang gives the life I want, and I work for him in return, that's all. If you try to give orders, I'll take it as a provocation."
Turning his head and looking seriously at Xiu Ju, Ji Wei said, "And I don't have much tolerance for Cultivators, so you'd better not try to provoke ."
Xiu Ju smiled, turning her attention to Shen Qiang.
Shen Qiang, driving the car, asked, "Do you have a driver's license?"
Ji Wei replied, "Yes."
"Good," Shen Qiang, driving straight to the Mountain Villa, said as they arrived and got out of the car, directly tossing the car keys to Ji Wei, "This car is yours to use now, keep your mobile on twenty-four hours a day. Until we find the one surnad Li, everyone needs to do this."
Ji Wei caught the car keys and nodded silently.
His expression beca sowhat curious as he followed Shen Qiang.
They had just reached the building in front of the Mountain Villa.
At the mont Shen Qiang saw the three Great Demons of the Happiness Gate, the Crane Spirit Sect Leader, the Tiger Spirit Fubao, and the Black Bear Spirit Xiong Zhenghui, Ji Wei's eyes lit up.
But before they had a chance to greet each other,
a large sea turtle spirit, dressed in formal attire and a bowtie, had already approached, "Boss, the others have gone out as per your instructions. If there's anything you need, you can call for at any ti."
Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang pulled Ji Wei aside and introduced, "This is Ji Wei, my personal advisor, and this gentleman here is my butler."
The large sea turtle spirit smiled at Ji Wei and nodded, "You may call Uncle Gui."
Ji Wei's eyes shone, "I think I've seen you before."
The large sea turtle spirit smiled.
Accompanying the Happiness Gate leaders, Shen Qiang made introductions, yet at the sa ti, he bizarrely noticed that Ji Wei, although curious, clearly held no respect for the three Great Demons, not showing even a hint of a smile on his face.
It was the second Black Bear, on the other hand, whose gaze betrayed a tinge of fear as it rested on Ji Wei.
Summoning them, they headed to the expansive office.
After so ti of refurbishnt, the office had entirely transford.
Sitting behind the huge desk, Shen Qiang talked with them intermittently about when they would officially move into the Mountain Villa while constantly checking his watch.
As it approached eleven in the morning, the Rabbit Spirit from the back mountain and the Big Black Dog that had gone out in search returned.
They were mostly ignored by Ji Wei.
However, when the coly demon Feifei, an ancient exotic beast, appeared, Shen Qiang could clearly sense that Ji Wei displayed a very strange emotional fluctuation towards her.
But the news they brought back was not great.
Colonel Li of the Dragon Group had vanished as if evaporated from the face of the earth.
No one knew his whereabouts.
This annoyed Shen Qiang greatly.
Considering, though, that Colonel Li was after all a colonel of the Dragon Group with strong cultivation and extensive knowledge of Provincial City, the fact that he could not be found at once was not unforgivable. After all, if Colonel Li, wishing to hide, couldn't even manage that much, he would be utterly useless.
Therefore, Shen Qiang did not wish to bla anyone, and even told the kitchen to prepare so extra delicacies.
But before Shen Qiang could take everyone to the restaurant,
people from the Dragon Group arrived.
Among them were not only Qian Shanxue, Ali, and Ye Xiaolei, but also several other Dragon Group officers, all of them dragging their feet with an air of bureaucratic indifference.
They requested Shen Qiang's assistance in investigating the murder under the overpass.
Furthermore, they tried to take Shen Qiang away from the Mountain Villa with them,
but were stopped by Qian Shanxue.
Out of respect for Qian Shanxue, Shen Qiang patiently sat with them in the office, chit-chatting until 12:30 PM. After retrieving and checking the surveillance footage from the front gate of Jinyu Huacheng, confirming Shen Qiang had indeed only stayed in his car the previous night and not gone near the overpass, the Dragon Group officers took their leave.
One of them looked earnestly at Shen Qiang and said, "Mr. Shen, in addition to this case, there's another matter we would like to request your help with. Our Colonel Li has gone off the grid; if you happen to find any trace of him, please notify ."
Taking the card the Dragon Group officer handed over, Shen Qiang smiled and said, "I will."
Just then, Shen Qiang's phone rang. Glancing at the caller ID, Bianyi, Shen Qiang waved goodbye to the Dragon Group officers and Qian Shanxue with a smile.
"My dear boss, congratulations. After I severed the fourth finger of that female disciple from the Long Yan Sword Sect, that Colonel Li finally decided to show up. He's arranged to et you at two o'clock this afternoon, but he refuses to co to the Mountain Villa and instead requested to et at the place where you last set off fireworks."
"Not only that, but the Long Yan Sword Sect female disciple also confessed that Colonel Li had bought large quantities of sawdust, kerosene, and ethylenediamine. In my experience as a scientist, these materials can only be mixed to create explosives. So perhaps, his intent is simply to blow you up into the sky."
