Chapter 44: Chapter 44 Su Yixue's Worries!
But realizing that this related to the special nature of Ye Fan's body, and also to her own future progress on the Martial Arts path, Yu Linglong steeled her resolve and asked, "Yixue, last night when you were intimate with Ye Fan, did you feel anything unusual? I mean... after Ye Fan was close to you, did you feel a surge of warmth?"
No sooner had Yu Linglong finished speaking than Su Yixue looked at her, utterly shocked, and said, "Sister Linglong, you felt it too? It's truly amazing, look at me... I practically had no Martial Arts foundation, but now I've already entered the Martial Arts Transforming Qi Stage..."
As she spoke, Su Yixue picked up a steel cup from the table and squeezed it lightly. The cup immediately deformed into a lump of scrap metal, and when she channeled her Qi Force, it reverted back to its original shape.
"This..."
Yu Linglong stared at Su Yixue with a face full of amazement!
Yu Linglong was, of course, aware of Su Yixue's situation.
Was this girl, who had been just an ordinary girl before, so powerful after only a few days with Ye Fan?
It seemed her feelings were not wrong!
Ye Fan really was extraordinary!
Declaring to marry Ye Fan as a group of seven, she had initially thought it was a sacrifice, but now it seemed they had stumbled upon a treasure!
With such a rate of improvement, everyone's strength could soar rapidly. Even if Ye Fan remained mentally absent in the future, with these beautiful wives to protect him, the Ye Family would certainly not suffer.
Moreover, it was not certain that Ye Fan would continue to be mentally absent.
Hadn't Divine Doctor Lei said that there was a good chance for Ye Fan to recover?
"Yixue, I still have some doubts. Do you think Ye Fan has really recovered? I always feel something isn't quite right," Yu Linglong expressed her suspicions.
Upon hearing Yu Linglong's words, Su Yixue's face turned a shade of red, "Sister Linglong, actually I've had similar thoughts. Twice now, during those moments in bed, Ye Fan didn't seem foolish at all..."
She was so embarrassed by the end of her statement that she quickly found an excuse to leave. "Sister Linglong, you guys stay with Ye Fan. I have urgent matters at the company and need to step out for a bit, let's have lunch together later!"
Today was supposed to be the day when Su Corporation would hold its new medicine release conference, but Li Yunyang had deliberately held the conference a day early and leaked Su Corporation's most vital formula.
It was a calculated move to embarrass Su Corporation and make them look bad.
But after the Li Family's conference yesterday, a major incident occurred at the engagement dinner in the evening.
During the engagement dinner, Xuan Yufei unexpectedly showed up with Ye Fan, and Cloud City's godfather Li Hu brought a Gatling gun to intimidate everyone. And most crucially, Li Yunyang dropped dead on the spot.
Perhaps this was the Li Family's retribution.
"Okay!"
After Su Yixue left, Xia Hao and Lei Qianjue arrived one after the other.
Ye Fan and Lei Qianjue were still "treating" in the room separately.
"Master, after I gathered all the herbs last night, I followed your instructions and successfully produced three units! Take a look!" Lei Qianjue said, taking out a bottle from his person. Inside the bottle was a vibrant green ointment.
As soon as the bottle was opened, a strong fragrance wafted out.
Lei Qianjue was very excited, took out a knife, and made a cut on his arm, from which blood immediately began to flow.
Lei Qianjue wiped the blood from the wound with a tissue, then quickly applied some ointment to the cut.
The next moment!
The wound on Lei Qianjue's arm visibly disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.
When the ointment was wiped clean, there was no trace left on the wound, and in fact, it almost became even whiter!
Although Lei Qianjue had gotten thoroughly drunk yesterday with Ye Changfeng and a group of old brothers, he still didn't forget the task Ye Fan had given him and experimented overnight.
After concocting the ointment, Lei Qianjue had already tested it several times on his own arm, engraving numerous scars upon it.
Ye Fan picked up the bottle and took a sniff, "Not bad! It's at eighty percent efficacy. It's sufficient for market distribution now!"
"Yixue is about to hold a press conference soon. You'll use your name to take me there and let's check out the site!" Ye Fan's eyes flashed with profundity, "I've almost dealt with the Cloud City Zhao Family and the Wang Family. The only one left is the Li Family, which is up against the Su Family head-on. They definitely won't let things slide at today's Su Family press conference!"
"Yes!"
Though Lei Qianjue was a big shot in the medical field, he didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Ye Fan.
The Zhao Family, such a massive clan, wiped out just like that!
Ye Fan was still in his foolhardy state, yet he quietly obliterated the Zhao Family, Young Master Wang disappeared, and Li Yunyang died on the spot, Ye Fan's methods were absolutely terrifying.
Those people who opposed the Ye Family!
Hmph!
They definitely wouldn't meet a good end!
...
Su Corporation!
There was still an hour away from the press conference. Su Yixue, Su Honghai, and their second uncle Su Minghao, along with many other core members of the Su Family and company shareholders, were all present.
"Big brother, the press conference is about to start, and our formula has been stolen. The Li Family has already released it first, what shall we do?"
"Yes! Elder Chairman, the investigation has made it clear that the ones who stole the secret are backed by the Provincial City Liu Family. We can't outmatch them, can we?"
"Sigh! This is retaliation against the Su Family by those people who contended with the Ye Family. Since President Su announced her marriage to Ye Fan, they will definitely stop at nothing to suppress the Su Corporation!"
Although yesterday at the banquet, because of Ye Fan, the Su Corporation had already reached an important cooperation with the Xia Family. With the Xia Family's channels, Su Pharmaceutical would definitely take off.
But the crux of the problem was, now that the Su Corporation's formula that had been developed over many years had been leaked, without a good product, even with enough channels, it was futile.
There was still some grumbling among everyone.
Su Honghai, who also knew the inside story, didn't feel at liberty to say much, "Everyone! What we need to discuss now is not why the other party is targeting us, but how to resolve this issue! We discussed it all afternoon yesterday and didn't come up with any good plan. Does anyone have any new ideas now?"
Su Yixue and her father Su Honghai looked towards the people below, everyone lowered their heads, and no one stood up to speak.
The R&D capabilities of the Su Corporation were limited to begin with, being able to develop the Beauty Rejuvenation Pill was already quite impressive. Now that the formula had been stolen, what could they possibly do?
"Unless! Right now, we have a formula that is even more perfect than that one and has even greater effects! That could be enough to suppress the Li Family's prominence and regain the advantage!"
"But how is that possible? We, the Su Corporation, simply can't develop it, and if any other company could, they would have launched it into the market already, wouldn't they have waited until today?"
Su Yixue, amidst the discussion of everyone, ultimately let out a helpless sigh, "Let it be! Even though our formula has been stolen, as long as we release a new formula, we can still occupy a portion of the market! Let's try to overcome this difficult situation first!"
Although Su Yixue said this, she was still very worried inside.
While the Su Corporation had developed a new formula, the patent procedures in various aspects were not yet fully processed.
If the Li Family took their formula and filed for a patent first,
Then the Su Corporation would have to obtain authorization from the Li Family if they wished to use the formula in the future, otherwise, the Li Family could sue them for infringement. This was Su Yixue's biggest concern...
