Lin Wanru was instantly furious.
"You! You rotten old man, you're simply taking advantage of someone's misfortune! Exploiting their difficulties!"
"Besides... besides, weren't you doing this many times yesterday...?"
She couldn't continue.
She just felt that this old man was truly hateful.
On the other side, Zhou Yi had his own excuse: "I'm just offering warmth on a snowy day!"
"Besides, with such a huge burden, I'm afraid you might not even be able to keep your position as CEO, right?"
Lin Wanru was furious.
But after her anger subsided, she had to admit.
What this old man said was all true.
At that point, my status in the Lin family would plummet.
She hesitated for a long time, finally gritting her teeth and agreeing.
"Okay, I agree!"
"However, I need to see the actual treatment effect first; we'll talk about other things later."
"No problem!" Chu Yi readily agreed.
He brought paper and pen and wrote down the prescription.
At the same time, he also noted the special method of preparing the medicine.
As the general manager of Minghai Pharmaceutical, Lin Wanru considered herself to have some knowledge of medicine, but after receiving the prescription, she couldn't understand it at all.
She looked at Chu Yi again suspiciously: "You old fool, you're not lying to me, are you?"
"Is this Zi Zhen formula effective?"
"Of course." Chu Yi looked very confident.
"Wanting is useless, I'll just walk right past you and disappear completely!"
Lin Wanru thought for a moment. If she could get rid of this rotten old man like this, it wouldn't be so bad.
So, she agreed.
"Okay, I'll have someone prepare it now."
Saying that, she handed the prescription to the head of the research department.
The head looked at the prescription, his face full of doubt.
But thinking it was the CEO's order, he accepted the prescription and returned to the research department.
Before long, the secretary suddenly burst in.
Seeing her unusual demeanor, Lin Wanru knew.
It was probably another emergency.
"Ms. Lin, it's an emergency! The people the old patriarch sent are almost at the company's door!"
"What?!" Lin Wanru's eyes widened in surprise.
Her heart immediately raced.
"Didn't they say they wouldn't arrive for three days? How did they get here so quickly?"
...
At the foot of the Minghai Pharmaceutical Company building.
Lin Guanghach proactively got out of the car and opened the door, fawningly welcoming the newcomer.
"Uncle Zhao, please."
"Hmm." The man addressed as Uncle Zhao slowly got out of the car.
He was the old patriarch's right-hand man.
He had served the old patriarch diligently for many years.
It could be said that he was one of the old patriarch's most trusted people.
If it weren't for this status, Lin Guanghach wouldn't have lowered himself to act as a chauffeur and open the door for the other party.
Lin Guanghach turned to look at the Minghai Pharmaceutical Company building, feeling extremely pleased with himself.
"Ah, she's probably already noticed the discrepancy."
"But even if she does, it's useless. No matter how much they try to fix it, they can't possibly mend such a huge hole!"
Nearly 2 billion in research and development funds wasted, and over three years of nothing.
This is enough to label Lin Wanru as incompetent.
The old patriarch, upon learning of this, will absolutely not easily forgive her!
My move is truly brilliant!
At this moment, Uncle Zhao suddenly looked seriously at Lin Guanghach.
"Guanghach, I came to inspect early this time entirely because you reported that Minghai Pharmaceutical concealed a significant deficit."
"If it's truly investigated, then of course it will be handled according to regulations."
"But if it's not investigated... Do you know the consequences of falsely accusing someone?"
"I know, don't worry!" Lin Guanghach said confidently.
"Good, let's go in."
Then, Uncle Zhao led the way, entering the Minghai Pharmaceutical Company building.
Lin Guanghach followed behind, inwardly scoffing.
Consequences of falsely accusing someone? That doesn't exist.
At this point, what kind of trouble could Lin Wanru possibly stir up?
If she lost with such a huge advantage...
I'd chop off my head and use it as a football for her!
The two entered the Minghai Pharmaceutical Company's office building.
In the reception hall, Lin Wanru was already waiting.
"Uncle Zhao, good morning!"
Uncle Zhao didn't stand on ceremony. After exchanging greetings with Lin Wanru, he asked to see the materials being inspected.
Lin Wanru nodded: "Okay, please come with us."
She gestured to her secretary to lead the way.
So, the group followed the secretary towards the CEO's office.
Along the way, Lin Guanghach approached Lin Wanru.
"Wanru, my dear cousin, it's been a few days since we last met. I hope you've been well?"
Lin Wanru gave him a cold look: "Lin Guanghach, Uncle Zhao is here for an inspection. What are you doing following us?"
"Uncle Zhao himself came down to inspect, and as the person in charge of the group in Dongling City, how could I not show him the utmost hospitality?"
"I don't think so. You're probably just here to watch the fun, aren't you?"
"Haha, how could that be? You're thinking too much!"
At this moment, Lin Guanghach suddenly noticed Zhou Yi beside him.
"Hmm? This old man is..."
Lin Wanru didn't even look at him: "This is my newly hired butler, responsible for handling some personal matters for me."
The old butler... Lin Guanghach was a little suspicious.
He had just heard that the Ma family members were beaten by an old man.
Although he later learned that Ye Nancheng was the one who did it viciously.
But specifically mentioning an old man still made him remember this incident.
This old man...
Couldn't he be more extraordinary?
This thought had barely surfaced when he quickly dismissed it.
How could that be?
What kind of ability could this nearly 80-year-old man possibly have?
He could be considered strong even if he suffered a stroke and became senile.
It must be that guy Ma making things up!
He shook his head, discarding this persistent thought.
Soon, the group arrived at the meeting room.
All the documents were ready.
Uncle Zhao sat down and instructed his attendants to begin the verification process.
The finance department, purchasing department, sales department...
The documents were checked one by one.
Lin Guanghe, already impatient, exclaimed, "Why haven't they checked the research department yet?"
He couldn't wait to see Lin Wanru's mockery. Suddenly, one of them stood up to report.
"Uncle Zhao, there's trouble!"
At this sound, Lin Wanru also unconsciously sighed.
In the end, she couldn't avoid this predicament.
"Is there a problem there?" Uncle Zhao asked.
"It's the research department."
Saying this, the other person respectfully handed the documents to Uncle Zhao.
"There's a new drug for treating heart disease, costing nearly 2 billion yuan, and after three years of development, there's still no result."
"Such a thing happened?"
Uncle Zhao took the documents, pulled out his glasses, and looked at them.
The more he read, the more his eyebrows furrowed.
Uncle Zhao turned to look at Lin Wanru, his expression serious.
"Wanru, have you at Minghai Pharmaceutical already conducted clinical trials on this new drug?"
"The market launch is fast approaching, so how come there's still no news?"
Lin Wanru hurriedly explained, "This is because... we have a completely new formula!"
"A completely new formula?"
"Yes." Lin Wanru took a deep breath.
"We obtained a family secret formula from an old gentleman. It specializes in treating heart disease, and we expect very good results."
"Therefore, we've delayed it a little. We hope you understand."
"This..." Uncle Zhao pondered.
At this moment, Lin Guanghe suddenly smiled.
"Ah, a family secret formula? Cousin, you're exaggerating a bit, aren't you?"
Initially, everyone looked at him.
"What do you mean by that?" Lin Wanru glared back at him.
Lin Guanghach extended his hand.
"Nothing, just couldn't help but say a couple of things."
"I just can't stand seeing some people, clearly the company has suffered significant losses, yet they want to cover it up!"
"As a member of the Lin family, how can we stand by and let these parasites run rampant!"
Saying this, he deliberately looked at Lin Wanru, with a provocative expression.
"Am I right? Lin! Wanru!"
