Chapter 735

Don’t Do This Next Time

“An eighteen-year-old.”

Mr. Li was holding a cup of tea, and no one knew what he was thinking.

“When I was 18, I was still working for others.”

Yang Ningyuan gave a wry smile and said, “To call Fang Qiu a genius is to underestimate him. Who knows that he is so incredible? Given his current situation, he can’t be destroyed unless he takes the road to ruin!”

“Amazing.”

Mr. Li nodded and poured the tea into his throat.

Neither of them could figure out how Fang Qiu, an 18-year-old boy, could do everything so perfectly that no one could spot any flaws.

It seemed that all the problems were not difficult for him at all.

He handled two things.

The first one was recognized by the higher-ups and the public, and the second one won the approval of his colleagues and the public. He got all the recognition in the world.

That made the two big shots in the business world envious. Their achievements would be unimaginable if they were able to do what Fang Qiu had done.

However, little did they know that he had more than they had ever imagined.

He had a huge fan base!

In the medical department on the third floor of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine Hospital:

“Beep, beep, beep…”

Fang Qiu’s cell phone rang in his consulting room.

After a night’s rest, Fang Qiu, who had just changed his clothes and was about to leave, took out his mobile phone and answered, “Hello?”

“I’m in the director’s office on the third floor.”

A familiar voice came from the other end of the line.

“Okay.”

Fang Qiu didn’t ask more. He nodded and walked out of the consulting room, heading for the director’s office on the third floor, at the end of the corridor.

He was shocked when he arrived at the office.

He saw a stranger with a familiar figure in the office.

Seeing Fang Qiu, the man chuckled and asked, “Hey, you don’t know me?”

“Of course I do.”

Fang Qiu smiled faintly.

From the man’s figure and tone, he could clearly tell that the stranger in front of him was Li Ji with a changed face.

“It’s better to be cautious.”

Li Ji nodded, walked up to him with a smile, and opened the door of the office. After glancing outside, he closed the door and said, “That person has confessed everything, and I’ve collected the evidence. We have both the testimony of a witness and physical evidence. You can make that public any time you want. However… once it’s made public, those two pharmaceutical companies will really be in deep trouble.”

Fang Qiu smiled.

It turned out that what he had asked Li Ji to do was to catch the person who had started the rumors and let him confess!

Now, the result finally came out.

“You’d better give it a second thought.”

Li Ji looked at Fang Qiu and added with a serious face, “If it’s made public, the two pharmaceutical companies won’t end up well, and the consequences will bound to be serious. It may even cause them to go bankrupt. That’s going to affect the livelihood of many workers and cause a lot of layoffs.”

Fang Qiu immediately shook his head and said, “No, that’s not going to happen. Someone will take over the two companies.”

“Huh?”

Li Ji was stunned and asked, “Take over?”

“Yes.”

Fang Qiu nodded and continued, “That’s a good thing. I promise you that someone will definitely do that. I won’t hurt anyone, let alone cause the workers to be laid off.”

“I’m relieved then.”

Li Ji nodded. After a pause, he asked, “When can we make it public?”

Fang Qiu secretly calculated and said, “I need two days. Let’s announce it the day after tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

Li Ji nodded with understanding. Then, he walked up to Fang Qiu, stared at him with a smile, and said, “Your matter has been settled. Now it’s time to talk about mine. Where are my swords?”

Fang Qiu replied, “I hid them. I’ll give you an address later. You can go and get them yourself.”

“All right.”

Li Ji’s eyes lit up.

Fang Qiu put the suitcase containing swords in the dormitory when he just came back. Later, he gave it a second thought and found that those swords could be regarded as prohibited goods and weapons that may hurt people. If such stuff were to be found in the school dormitory, it would be a big problem.

Therefore, he deliberately found time to go back to school and transferred the swords away.

“When you take out the swords, leave the one that’s packed separately for me,” Fang Qiu added.

“Okay.”

Li Ji didn’t ask for the reason. He just nodded, ready to leave.

“Wait a sec.”

Fang Qiu suddenly stopped him.

Li Ji looked back and asked, “Is there anything else?”

Fang Qiu smiled and said, “It’s something serious! I’ve forged those swords for you. Can you just do me a favor?”

“What are you going to do?”

Fang Qiu’s words took Li Ji by surprise.

“It’s not a big deal for you.”

Fang Qiu grinned, stepped forward, and patted Li Ji on the shoulder, saying, “I need a piece of land in Beijiang, preferably desert, as large as possible, and it’d better be someplace suitable for living nearby.”

“There isn’t much good land, but deserts are plenty.”

Li Ji thought for a moment and continued, “The land that has been used for desertification control over the years can meet your requirements. Nevertheless, I can’t give you an exact answer right now. I still need to ask my superiors for instructions, but I don’t think there’s any problem with it. Wait for my good news.”

“Okay.”

Fang Qiu nodded.

Li Ji strode away.

“All I have to do is wait quietly.”

After muttering to himself secretly, Fang Qiu walked out of the office and went back to his consulting room to pack up, ready to meet Yang Ningyuan.

The person who was going to take over the companies was him!

After packing up, Fang Qiu directly took out his mobile phone and called Yang Ningyuan.

“Hello?” The call went through quickly.

Fang Qiu asked, “Mr. Yang, are you in Jianghang?”

“Yes.”

Yang Ningyuan nodded and replied with a smile, “I just came back from the capital. What’s the matter? Is there anything I can do for you?”

Fang Qiu said, “Yes. Let’s make an appointment to meet and talk.”

“Okay.”

Yang Ningyuan nodded.

Soon, the two of them hung up the phone after setting up an appointment.

In a villa in a rich district of Jianghang:

“Jianghang really lives up to its reputation. You can’t have such good air in the capital.”

In the small courtyard of the villa, there were several wooden chairs and a wooden table in a square sunken space in the middle of a lawn. At this moment, Mr. Li, who was wearing a white shirt, was sitting at the wooden table, enjoying the scenery in the yard and the good air that he had no access to in the capital.

“Since Mr. Li likes Jianghang, why don’t you move here?” Yang Ningyuan asked, smiling.

Mr. Li shook his head and said with a laugh, “Forget it. I’m used to breathing the stale air in the capital. I just don’t feel comfortable going anywhere.”

“Haha.”

Yang Ningyuan laughed in agreement, then walked to the wooden table and sat down. He said, “The person you appreciate is coming. Can you guess the purpose of his visit?”

Mr. Li shook his head and said, “How would I know? Anyway, he won’t come to you for no reason. With his way of doing things, it must be a good thing for you if he comes to you in person. Guess I have to congratulate you in advance.”

“I’m also looking forward to it.”

Yang Ningyuan laughed out loud and added, “Don’t leave now that he’s coming. When he comes, you can take a closer look at him.”

“Okay.”

Mr. Li nodded in agreement.

Over there, Fang Qiu took out his mobile phone and dialed Jiang Miaoyu’s number after he walked out of the hospital.

“Hello?” When the phone was connected, Jiang Miaoyu’s voice was heard.

“Where are you?” asked Fang Qiu.

“Do you mean ‘we’?” Jiang Miaoyu asked intentionally or unintentionally.

“Yes, you and my old classmate.”

Fang Qiu forced a smile.

“Oh.”

Jiang Miaoyu replied, “Mengjie went back to school this morning.”

“Huh?”

Fang Qiu froze for a moment, frowning slightly.

He didn’t expect Jiang Mengjie not to inform him of it before she returned to school. Theoretically, she wouldn’t do that.

“Did you have a good time these days?” asked Fang Qiu.

Jiang Miaoyu answered in an extremely exaggerated tone, “Sure. We nearly became sworn sisters.”

“Are you that close?”

Fang Qiu was stunned.

If his memory didn’t betray him, wasn’t it awkward when the two women appeared at the same time?

How did they get along so well without his presence?

“Could it be that I’m the one who felt embarrassed?” he thought.

“You didn’t expect us to fight, did you?”

Jiang Miaoyu curled her lips.

“Of course.”

Fang Qiu smiled awkwardly and continued, “I’m going to leave Jiangjing for a few days. I especially inform you of it. Don’t worry.”

“Okay.”

Jiang Miaoyu didn’t ask more questions. “Be careful,” she reminded him directly.

“Got it.”

Fang Qiu nodded.

Then, he hung up the phone.

When he was about to put away his mobile phone, he paused again. After hesitating for a while, he finally dialed Jiang Mengjie’s number.

“Oh, you’re such a busy bee. You finally called me.”

When the phone was connected, Jiang Mengjie’s voice sounded.

“You know my current situation too.”

Fang Qiu gave a wry smile and continued, “By the way, why did you leave before I finished my work? I’ve just finished my work, ready to be the host and treat you to a nice meal. Why did you leave so early?”

“Next time maybe,” Jiang Mengjie responded with a smile and added, “in fact, I was relieved to see that you were all right. I knew that you had a lot of things to attend to, so I didn’t dare to disturb you. That’s why I came to you and left without making a fuss.”

“Alas.”

Fang Qiu sighed softly and said, “Don’t do this next time.”

“Do you mean that I’m not allowed to come, or I’m not allowed to leave?” Jiang Mengjie asked.

“You’re not allowed to leave like this!” Fang Qiu said word by word.

“Okay.”

Jiang Mengjie smiled.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Mengjie’s voice rang out as she said, “I’m getting out of the car. I’m hanging up. Next time… I won’t leave without saying goodbye.”

“Okay.”

Fang Qiu nodded and said, “Be careful.”

After hanging up the phone, he let out a faint sigh.

He was no fool and naturally knew everything. He could do nothing but pretend that he didn’t know it in this situation.

After packing his phone up, he stretched out his hand, stopped a taxi coming toward him, and then hurried straight to the factory.

He took a part of Fairy Desert Cistanche—an Earth Treasure, from the factory. After slicing it and packing some slices up, he went straight to the high-speed railway station and headed for Jianghang.

In the afternoon, Yang Ningyuan directly sent someone to take Fang Qiu to his villa.

Seeing Fang Qiu, Yang Ningyuan burst out laughing and said, “You came at the right time. I went to the capital to do some inspection for a few days. When I came back, I built a tearoom. I’ll take you there to have a look.”

After that, he led Fang Qiu to a recently renovated tearoom in the villa.

After sitting down in the tearoom and exchanging a few words with Fang Qiu, Yang Ningyuan asked, “You don’t visit me for no reason. What’s the matter with your visit this time?”
