Chapter 1466: Chapter 1093: Impossible Betrayal
Xiang Xiaofeng did not accomplish a breakthrough visit at Song Zimo’s place. As a leader in the industry, it was undoubtedly regrettable.
However, for Xiang Xiaofeng, who ca from a dical background, he was sohow happy inside, not knowing why he felt glad even though he didn’t manage to secure the dical Journal. This happiness was a bit inexplicable, a bit without reason, and after a satisfying al, he unexpectedly reminisced about his student days when he was passionately writing and giving directions.
Xiang Xiaofeng stayed here for one night. The next day, Song Zimo took him to visit the headquarters of the dical Journal, where he encountered an old acquaintance, Mao Mingli. However, their eting was sowhat awkward, as there had been so issues between them in the past.
Back then, when Mao Mingli was a newly appointed Vice Chief Editor of a top dostic dical journal in Beijing, Xiang Xiaofeng invited him for a al and gave him gifts as usual, hoping they would beco good friends and strategic partners in the future. However, Mao Mingli did not accept, refusing both the al and the gifts. Several of Xiang Xiaofeng’s client’s papers were rejected by him. Ultimately, the Chief Editor scolded Mao severely, and those papers were published as usual. Mao was demoted to an ordinary editor after just a few months as Vice Chief Editor. eting him again here was still sowhat embarrassing.
“This is the Chief Editor of our dical Journal,” introduced Song Zimo.
This ti, Chief Editor Mao stood up straight and stated proudly, “It’s nice to et you; we are old friends.”
“Yes, old friends,” replied Xiang Xiaofeng awkwardly.
Chief Editor Mao had absolute autonomy over the dical Journal, which was agreed upon with Professor Yang when he first ca. Hence, it didn’t matter whether Song Zimo or even Professor Yang himself brought him here; don’t think about bringing that kind of setup here. This place was where he realized his ideals.
“He’s just here to visit. Mr. Xiang is an old classmate of mine, and he was hoping I could help facilitate cooperation with Chief Editor Mao, but I have made it clear to him that we don’t need any strategic partners here, only high-quality papers,” Song Zimo spoke candidly, without mincing words.
Chief Editor Mao nodded approvingly, proudly proclaiming, “Absolutely right, our dical Journal is currently a true top international journal and the only Chinese journal in the top circle. As a journal, what we need are excellent authors and excellent papers, not any strategic partners.”
A blushing Xiang Xiaofeng said, “Of course, of course! Rest assured, Chief Editor Mao, I am here just as a friend of Professor Song to visit, and it’s truly an eye-opener!”
Xiang Xiaofeng sohow felt envious of Mao Mingli. Despite earning a lot of money, at that mont, he felt a sense of emptiness inside, as if lacking sothing precious, which seed tangible in this place.

Two weeks before the wedding, everything was prepared, and many prominent wedding guests began arriving in China early, hoping to have ample ti for a journey at Sanbo.
Huang Jiacai’s newly acquired Haiyun Hotel started accommodating guests. During this period, the hotel served only wedding guests and was not open to the general public.
Haiyun Manor, with its stunning mountainside and seaside location, looked even more beautiful after Huang Jiacai’s renovations.
The first batch of guests to check in included Manstein, August, Robert, and Rongge—Rongge being the chief of Joint Surgery at the New York Special Surgery Hospital and a university classmate of Robert. Robert had insisted on bringing him to China to attend Professor Yang’s wedding, and given Robert’s significant influence, Huang Jiacai agreed to his recomndation of Rongge.
Soon after, many international guests also started checking in, while the Chinese guests were not in a rush—they wouldn’t co this early due to the proximity, usually arriving just a day beforehand.
Unlike the frequent visitors Manstein, August, and Robert, it was Rongge’s first visit to Sanbo Hospital and to China. He was curious about everything and followed Robert exploring everywhere.
On the Sky Bridge, the elderly man selling baked sweet potatoes and the couple selling beef offal were patients whom Professor Yang had operated on. All these visiting doctors and professors knew this story, so this place was a must-visit for them.
Robert, leading a few people, bought so sweet potatoes and beef offal, giving a hundred US dollars each without asking for change. Even though the vendors chased after them to return the change, they refused, saying the remaining money was for the photo-taking fee.
At Uncle Er’s Grilled Fish next to the hospital, waves of foreigners keep coming.
Fujiwara Miyuki also ca to China, where she finally t her dream lover—Yang Ping, the man she yearned for in her thoughts and dreams. When Yang Ping went to Tokyo University, she personally knitted a scarf for him but never delivered it. Now in China, she hoped for a chance to give it to him.
However, perhaps there would never be a chance to do so. She truly loved Yang Ping, but she knew that Yang Ping was happy with Xiao Su. Loving soone should not involve disrupting their happiness.
Before coming to China, her elder brother Fujiwara Wakan encouraged her to pursue her happiness and to sacrifice for the sake of the family business. She initially thought she should pursue her happiness at all costs.
After painful reflection, she realized how selfish and wrong those thoughts were. If she truly loved Yang Ping, she should quietly protect his happiness. Loving soone ans wanting them to be happy, forever.
Of course, Miyuki did not share these thoughts with her brother. Once she told him, she would not be able to protect the happiness of the man she loved most.

Fujiwara Wakan and Li Gaoyang had a confidential eting at a hotel in Hawaii.
“The future of the dical field will definitely belong to biotechnology, and currently, Yang Ping nearly has mastery of the future biotechnologies we need. We must take actions; we cannot just wait to die.”
“My plan is already in progress, if he cannot be utilized for our purposes, then we must…”
“No, his capabilities exceed our expectations. According to our intelligence, he has specifically studied so of our core technologies and has developed alternatives. Should anything happen to him, these alternatives could spread online, and our moat would be destroyed.”
“He is not a god, just a person. There can’t possibly be such a genius in the world. You should understand—both for us and for you—the accumulation of various patent technologies and reserve technologies cannot be achieved in a short ti; it requires decades, even centuries. How could such a young man develop so many alternative technologies? It’s just a bluff.”
“I think you might be misunderstanding him. He is like a demi-god. I believe he can do it, so we absolutely must not resort to extre asures. We can’t risk destruction, at least until the situation is clearer— we must adopt a conservative strategy.”
“Alright, I accept your suggestion.”
“Are you sure your plan can proceed? I must remind you, I’ve also used this thod before, but it failed. The person I sent out can’t return; he’s probably off helping soone give birth now.”
“That’s because you chose the wrong person, the wrong target. Rest assured, my people will definitely take down Yang Ping; no man can reject the person I send.”
“Then let’s wait for your good news; that would be best. Cheers!”
“Cheers!”
Whether it’s Li Gaoyang from BG Company or Fujiwara Wakan from Fujihara Corporation, they both have great foresight. They recognize the future trend where biodicine will be a pillar industry, perating all aspects of life. As a pillar industry, they have no reason not to prioritize it, especially since they are already dominators in the field with strong technical capabilities in drugs, vaccines, and health products. All they are doing now is protecting their dominant position.
“I’m sowhat worried; the person we sent last ti betrayed us; this ti the person you send might betray us too.”
“You’re worrying too much; our people won’t betray.”
