77: Chapter 77 Lew Qingqing_1 77: Chapter 77 Lew Qingqing_1 This morning.

Hanging Gourd Medical Hall.

Lu Chuan sat cross-legged in the courtyard.

He was rhythmically gathering and expelling spiritual energy in his breath.

After a long time, he opened his eyes and concluded his cultivation practice.

Although he had been busy with the medical hall’s affairs, he had not neglected his cultivation.

Now he had reached the peak of Qi Cultivation Level 6, just one step away from a breakthrough.

“It looks like I need to prepare to refine the Spirit Melding Pill again, but there’s no more Falling Cloud Herb left in the storeroom.

It seems I’ll need to go out and purchase some.”

The recent sales of the three elixir pills had been a tremendous success.

Lu Chuan’s account balance had nearly reached thirty million, and it was still steadily increasing.

He no longer had to worry about lacking the funds to buy medicinal herbs.

Moreover, the three elixir pills had significantly impacted Jerry Pharmaceuticals’ market share.

Lu Chuan’s plan against Jerry Pharmaceuticals had been provisionally accomplished.

He could set this aside for now and focus wholeheartedly on his cultivation.

Without hesitation, Lu Chuan greeted Mu Nanqing and headed for the herbal market.

At the entrance of the herbal market.

As soon as Lu Chuan got out of his car, he saw a woman alight from a Maybach.

She was wearing a wine-red, sexy sling dress and high heels, with a seductive figure and bewitching makeup.

With a strong presence and an exceptional physique, the woman left little to the imagination in her dress.

Lu Chuan couldn’t help but take a second look.

Who would have thought that the woman would glare at Lu Chuan and curse, “What are you looking at?

Haven’t seen a beauty before?

Stinking loser, if you look again, I’ll gouge your eyes out!”

Lu Chuan was speechless, thinking to himself that she was the one dressed so provocatively and now blamed him for looking.

With such a lousy temper, what good was it to be beautiful.

He didn’t argue and turned to walk deeper into the herbal market.

The sexy woman, accompanied by her secretary, also headed deeper into the market.

“Are you sure that the most purchased herbs by that bitch recently are these?” The woman held a piece of paper, walking and asking.

The secretary said, “Yes, Director Lew, I’ve had our purchasing agent followed for a long time now, and there’s no mistake.”

The woman snorted coldly, “I really don’t know how that little bitch got so lucky to get her hands on a divine elixir pill recipe like the Youthfulness Retention Pill.

I need to buy up all the needed herbs clean, seizing some bargaining chips.

Only then can I force that bitch to introduce me to the person who gave her the pill recipe!”

Lu Chuan arrived at a shop and asked, “Shopkeeper, do you have any Falling Cloud Herb left?

I need ten plants.”

The shopkeeper took out ten plants of Falling Cloud Herb and packed them into a bag for Lu Chuan.

At that moment, the sexy woman approached and commanded, “Shopkeeper, pack up all the Falling Cloud Herb, Cold Clarity Flowers, and Ladybell Roots in your shop.

I want all of them.”

Seeing a big customer, the shopkeeper quickly said, “Okay, okay, I’ll prepare them right away for you.”

With her arms crossed, the woman waited and, upon seeing Lu Chuan there, said contemptuously, “Stinking loser, are you following me?”

Lu Chuan was speechless.

“Can you please be more respectful?

Why on earth would I bother following you?”

“Pfft, a loser like you would drool at the mere sight of a beauty like me.

If you’re not stalking me, then why are you here?” the woman pressed aggressively.

Lu Chuan frowned, “I came here to buy herbs, alright?

And I was here first, so how about you tell me you’re not the one following me?”

Looking down on him, the woman replied, “Take a good look at yourself.

Do you think you’re worth my time to follow around?”

“Enough.

I don’t want to waste words with a loser like you.

Just get lost and don’t get in my way here,” she said disdainfully.

Lu Chuan’s face darkened, “Even if I am a loser, I’m still better than someone as cheap and trashy as you!”

Enraged, the woman retorted, “Who are you calling cheap and trashy?”

Lu Chuan glared at her, “I’m talking about you!”

The woman took a step forward, as if she wanted to start a fight, but when she saw Lu Chuan’s gaze, she backed off.

She snorted coldly, “Such a low-class person.

Missy has other matters to attend to and doesn’t want to waste time on you.

Just get lost, and don’t let me see you again!”

Her eyes fell upon the Falling Cloud Herbs in front of Lu Chuan, and she snatched them away, “These are mine now.”

Lu Chuan’s eyes widened, “Are you crazy?

Those are mine!”

The woman looked at the shopkeeper and asked, “Did he pay for them?”

The shopkeeper stammered, “No…

not yet.”

She glared at Lu Chuan, “You didn’t pay, so on what grounds do you claim these are yours?

I told the shopkeeper just now that I wanted all the Falling Cloud Herb, so these plants are mine, too!”

Lu Chuan clenched his fists, feeling an urge to lash out.

The woman immediately taunted, “What, you want to hit me?

Try it if you dare.

If you lay a single finger on me, I’ll make sure you spend the rest of your life in prison!”

Lu Chuan brushed off his hands, “I don’t stoop to the level of an unreasonable woman like you!”

The woman scoffed, “I think you just lack the guts!

Trash!”

Lu Chuan stopped arguing with her and turned to buy Falling Cloud Herb from another shop.

What he didn’t expect was that all the Falling Cloud Herb in the entire market had been bought out.

“I really should have checked the almanac before leaving today.”

Lu Chuan sighed.

“Falling Cloud Herb is one of the main ingredients for the Youthfulness Retention Pill.

Mengyao should have stocked up plenty.

I’ll go ask her to lend me some.”

With that in mind, he took a taxi to Chu Mengyao’s company.

Blooming Beauty Building.

First floor VIP area.

Lu Chuan and Chu Mengyao sat facing each other.

Chu Mengyao was wearing a uniform, exuding a cool CEO vibe, holding a cup of coffee and sneakily glancing at Lu Chuan from time to time.

Lu Chuan smiled and asked, “How is your company’s listing plan going?”

Chu Mengyao said, “Once the Youthfulness Retention Pill hit the market, it became a hot product, and our listing application was approved.”

She hesitated for a moment, but still said sincerely, “Thank you.”

Lu Chuan smiled and said, “What for?

You earned this with your hard work.”

Chu Mengyao was momentarily taken aback, and after recovering, she blushed and glared at Lu Chuan, scolding, “Jerk!”

Lu Chuan made a face, “Okay, no more jokes.

I came here because I want to borrow ten strands of Falling Cloud Herb, the herbal market is all sold out.”

Chu Mengyao nodded, made a call to her secretary, and asked for ten strands of Falling Cloud Herb to be brought over.

At that moment, the sound of high heels resounded.

A sensual and seductive figure, accompanied by several people, walked towards the VIP area.

“Chu Mengyao, you’ve been quite formidable lately!

Since the Youthfulness Retention Pill launched, we at Lotus Beauty Cosmetics can barely breathe under the pressure!”

Chu Mengyao turned her head, frowning, “Why is this bitch here?”

Lu Chuan also looked over, completely surprised, as the woman approaching was none other than the one who had snatched his Falling Cloud Herb at the herbal market.

He asked Chu Mengyao, “Who is this?”

Chu Mengyao replied, “Lew Qingqing, President of Lotus Beauty Cosmetics, my sworn enemy.”

Lu Chuan realized and said, “This woman is no match for you, not by a long shot.”

Chu Mengyao looked at Lu Chuan with a strange expression and remained silent.

Lew Qingqing approached the two.

Upon seeing Lu Chuan there as well, she expressed surprise, “How is this loser here too?”

Lu Chuan retorted, “If a slut like you can be here, why can’t I?”

Lew Qingqing clenched her fists with anger.

Chu Mengyao, puzzled, asked, “You know each other?”

Lu Chuan replied, “It was she who took my Falling Cloud Herb, forcing me to ask you for some.”

Lew Qingqing sized up Lu Chuan and Chu Mengyao, and sneered, “Chu Mengyao, you’ve really got some nerve, getting involved behind Long Hao’s back.

But if you wanted to experience some premarital excitement, you shouldn’t have picked such a loser.

When did your standards drop this low?”

Chu Mengyao’s face darkened, “Lew Qingqing, you’d better watch your mouth.

You might not be afraid of me, but aren’t you afraid of the Long family?”

“Pfft.” Lew Qingqing curled her lip and didn’t continue that line of conversation.

She smugly said, “If I’m not mistaken, the main ingredients for your Youthfulness Retention Pill are Falling Cloud Herb, Cold Clarity Flower, and Ladybell Root, right?”

“Let me tell you, I’ve already bought up all of these three kinds of herbs available on the market.

Soon, your company’s supply of Youthfulness Retention Pills will be cut off, and then you’ll have no choice but to come begging to me.”

“I’m not asking for much.

Just introduce me to the person who gave you the pill formula, and I’ll sell these herbs to you.

How about it?”

Chu Mengyao’s expression turned peculiar as she turned to look at Lu Chuan.

Lew Qingqing said, “I’m asking you to introduce me to the person behind the pill formula.

Why are you looking at this loser?”

Chu Mengyao, holding back laughter, said, “The formula for the Youthfulness Retention Pill… he’s the one who gave it to me.”

Lew Qingqing froze, then opened her mouth wide and grabbed her head, somewhat in disbelief, “The Youthfulness Retention Pill was formulated by him?”

Lu Chuan sneered, “That’s right, I, this loser, managed to come up with the Youthfulness Retention Pill formula.

Surprised?”

Lew Qingqing regained her composure and put on an awkward smile, “How…

how could I be?

Handsome, there’s been a little misunderstanding between us earlier, don’t take it to heart.”

Lu Chuan couldn’t help but laugh, “You sure change your tune quickly.

Wasn’t I just a loser?”

Lew Qingqing tried to laugh it off, “Where, when I first saw you, I thought you were dashing and debonair with a noble air.

Earlier, I was acting high and mighty just to get your attention.”

Chu Mengyao rolled her eyes nearby, “Drama queen.”

Lew Qingqing sidled up to Lu Chuan, her attitude having done a one-eighty from the herbal market, becoming incredibly gentle, “Handsome, since you can give Chu Mengyao the formula for the Youthfulness Retention Pill, why not give me a copy too?

Or any other formula that has a similar effect as the Youthfulness Retention Pill.

Whatever Chu Mengyao paid you, I’m willing to pay double!”

Chu Mengyao looked toward Lu Chuan, appearing somewhat uneasy.

Lu Chuan flatly refused, “Forget it.

Even if I have to destroy the Youthfulness Retention Pill formula, I would never give it to someone as slutty and cheap as you.”

Lew Qingqing’s expression stiffened.

Instead of getting angry, she maintained her smile and stepped in front of Lu Chuan, circling him, “You’re right, I am indeed slutty and cheap.”

Then leaning into Lu Chuan’s ear, she blew a warm breath, “Especially in bed.”

Lu Chuan’s body jolted.

Lew Qingqing looped her arm around Lu Chuan’s, caressing him with her leg.

“If you’re willing to give me the formula for the Youthfulness Retention Pill, I’ll keep you company for a few days.

I know lots of tricks, what do you say?”
