Ma Wei’s sudden stunt caught Ye Xiu completely off guard. Qin Qing, Kong Ruoruo, An Dongye, Chloe, Luo Qianjun, and Jin Lian were also taken aback. This Ma Wei was shaless to the extre, kneeling and clinging to Ye Xiu, trying to make him his boss. Where was his dignity?
Luo Qianjun and Jin Lian got out of the car. "Divine Doctor Ye, what’s going on here?" Luo Qianjun asked.
Ye Xiu recounted the car accident.
Upon hearing the story, Luo Qianjun frowned, kicked Ma Wei to the ground, and barked coldly, "Get lost. Trash like you doesn’t deserve to be Divine Doctor Ye’s follower."
"Who the hell are you?" Ma Wei scrambled up, grabbing Luo Qianjun by the collar. "It’s none of your damn business who I take for a boss!"
Luo Qianjun’s brow furrowed. "Take your filthy hands off ."
"You kicked first," Ma Wei snapped.
BANG!
Luo Qianjun drove his knee up, ramming it into Ma Wei’s large stomach.
"Damn..." Ma Wei imdiately clutched his belly and dropped to his knees. The blow was so powerful that beads of sweat instantly ford on his forehead, and he was left speechless with pain.
"Divine Doctor Ye, there’s no need to deal with this societal scum. Let’s head to the golf course," Luo Qianjun said with a smile, rhythmically tapping his right index finger on his thigh a few tis.
It was a subtle gesture that an ordinary person wouldn’t notice, or would simply dismiss as a personal habit.
However, Ye Xiu noticed it. And he instantly recognized the aning behind those few taps! Morse code! A very ancient code, long since abandoned by the modern era! It ant: "Continue!" Who is he signaling? Ma Wei? Or one of Ma Wei’s nine friends? Interesting! It seems that car accident was preditated!
"Alright. Jin Lian, go find a place to park. We’ll just walk over," Ye Xiu said, showing no sign of his discovery.
"Okay!" Jin Lian nodded and drove the car away.
"Boss!" At that mont, Ma Wei ran over, still clutching his stomach. "Boss, please, just take in."
Now Ye Xiu knew who Luo Qianjun was signaling. But he still didn’t understand the purpose of this whole act. He would have to continue playing dumb!
He began, "Ma Wei, I..."
"Just call Little Ma or Wei," Ma Wei interrupted.
Ye Xiu was speechless.
Heh! Did you graduate from acting school? Your performance is quite professional!
"Don’t you have any sha?" Luo Qianjun interjected coldly. "Hurry up and get lost. Don’t ruin our mood for a ga of golf."
"Who the hell are you? I’m talking to my boss, what’s it to you? My boss hasn’t told to get lost, so what? Are you trying to make decisions for him now?" Ma Wei cursed belligerently.
Luo Qianjun chose the perfect mont to fall silent. Saying anything more would truly be overstepping his bounds and making decisions for Ye Xiu.
Ye Xiu sneered inwardly. These two are perfectly in sync. They’ve got a real talent for a double act; they should go pro.
He said aloud, "Ma Wei, you should leave. I’m not going to take you on."
"Please, Boss! Just take in. I can be your driver, serve you tea, whatever you need!" Ma Wei pleaded.
Now that things had co to this, Ye Xiu couldn’t send Ma Wei away. If Ma Wei actually left, he would never figure out the purpose of Luo Qianjun’s sche.
So, he pretended to ignore Ma Wei and started walking toward the golf course with Qin Qing and the others.
Just then, Ye Xiu saw Luo Qianjun’s right index finger tap a few more tis.
He ans, "Follow us!"
And so, Ma Wei, along with his nine friends—four n and five won—silently and eagerly trotted after Ye Xiu’s group.
「At the golf course!」
Luo Qianjun sent another signal to Ma Wei: "Fawn over him!"
Consequently, while Ye Xiu’s group played golf, Ma Wei’s group of ten acted as caddies and servants, diligently attending to their every need. At first, Ye Xiu feigned refusal, but eventually, he put on a show of reluctant acceptance and allowed Ma Wei’s group to serve them.
After they had played for over half an hour, they took a break. "You didn’t invite here just to play a ga of golf, did you, Mr. Luo?" Ye Xiu asked.
Luo Qianjun tossed a bottle of mineral water to Ye Xiu before opening one for himself. "Even if I said yes, I’m sure you wouldn’t believe , Divine Doctor Ye," he said, taking a sip. "While I’m still in the country, I’d like to build a better relationship with you. After all, a friend like you is a rare find. As for why I want to befriend you... well, a smart man like yourself should already know, right?"
"The dical sector is a tempting piece of cake, isn’t it? Does the Luo Family want a slice, too?" Ye Xiu asked.
"If possible, I hope you can entrust the Black Water Nation market to the Luo Family. After all, you know I have so connections there," Luo Qianjun said with a smile.
At that, Jin Lian laughed. "Mr. Luo has quite an appetite, doesn’t he? The Black Water Nation market is so vast; isn’t the Luo Family afraid of biting off more than it can chew?"
"As long as Divine Doctor Ye grants it, the Luo Family can handle it," Luo Qianjun remarked.
"Divine Doctor Ye, the Jin Family’s appetite isn’t as large. We only want the supply of raw dicinal ingredients," Jin Lian stated.
"You call that not a large appetite?" Luo Qianjun chuckled. "In the future, Divine Doctor Ye’s dicines will dominate the global market. The amount produced and sold every second will be astronomical. The profits from raw materials alone will be far greater than the entire Black Water Nation market."
"It’s too early for you two to be fighting over the cake," Ye Xiu said. "The pharmaceutical sector is vast and complex, which ans there will be a need for many partners. As for how to slice this cake, we can discuss that once it’s actually baked."
"I’m not in a hurry. I just wanted to give you a heads-up. When the ti cos to choose a raw materials supplier, I hope you’ll consider the Jin Family," Jin Lian said with a smile.
"I feel the sa way," Luo Qianjun stated.
Just then, Ma Wei sidled over and said timidly, "Boss, how about you let handle the factory construction?"
Dear lord, can you stop trying to steal the show?
Ye Xiu snapped, "Get lost!"
"Right away!" Ma Wei quickly scurried off.
Just then, his phone rang. It was Shen Songshan. "Ye Xiu, the Gun God should be dead by now, right? When are you coming to wake Shen Qilin?"
Just as Ye Xiu was about to respond, he saw Luo Qianjun sending another Morse code ssage to Ma Wei: "Volunteer to take Qin Qing and the other three ho."
Oh? So Luo Qianjun wants to find out where I live!
Maintaining a neutral expression, he replied to Shen Songshan, "I’m on my way now."
After hanging up, he turned to Qin Qing and the other three. "I need to make a trip to the Shen Family. You all can stay and have fun."
"Go ahead," Qin Qing said.
At that mont, Ma Wei spoke up obsequiously, "Boss, you can go without any worries. Once the ladies are done having fun, I’ll make sure they get ho safely."
Heh. As if I’d let you take them.
"That won’t be necessary," Ye Xiu said. "You’re taking to the Shen Family."
As he spoke, Ye Xiu caught a fleeting flicker of disappointnt in the eyes of both Luo Qianjun and Ma Wei.
"Of course!" Ma Wei replied, feigning excitent. "My driving is top-notch, Boss. You can rest easy with as your driver."
"Stop wasting ti. Let’s go."
"Right away!"
As he watched Ye Xiu and Ma Wei walk away, Luo Qianjun fud internally. He had overheard the conversation between Shen Songshan and Ye Xiu and imdiately sent Ma Wei a Morse code order to volunteer to escort Qin Qing’s group ho. He’d hoped to use this chance to find out where Ye Xiu lived, but he never expected Ye Xiu to ask Ma Wei to take him to the Shen Family instead.
That was right. Ma Wei’s true identity was that of a Bounty Hunter from the Night Banquet Organization. He was also the only Bounty Hunter from the organization who had been lying low in the country, specifically in Qi Yun Dao. After receiving Luo Qianjun’s order last night, he had rushed over imdiately. He even brought friends along to avoid arousing Ye Xiu’s suspicion.
