Chapter 162: Chapter 162: The Insincere Apology

Lu Pharmaceuticals Building.

Inside the chairman’s office.

Sitting at the desk with a gloomy face, Lu Huifa, the current head of the Lu Family, was looking at a report.

Lu Siyu stood in front of the desk, silent with his head bowed.

After a short while, Lu Huifa suddenly crumpled up the report in front of him and threw it at Lu Siyu, "What kind of a monster did you bring upon our company? With only a few days on the market, their Life Spiritual Liquid has already left us gasping for air!"

Lu Siyu shrank his neck, "Dad, I had no idea Chen Fan had such capabilities. We had already blocked their promotional channels, but who could have expected such a small company could get Liu Yunxi to endorse them? I never expected things to turn out this way."

Lu Huifa ground his teeth in anger, "That Liu Yunxi is really blind. I’ve approached her several times, and she didn’t even bother, yet she ends up working with a dead-end company like Qingfan Pharmaceuticals. She truly lacks business vision!"

Lu Siyu rolled his eyes, "Dad, why don’t we just call my brother-in-law directly, have him take people down there and shut Qingfan Pharmaceuticals down? With the War Zone’s involvement, their company surely won’t be able to continue."

Lu Huifa spoke coldly, "If shutting down their company could solve everything, I would have called your brother-in-law long ago."

"The problem now is the amazing effects of the Life Spiritual Liquid. People have started to realize that our Water of Life is a sham."

"Even if Qingfan Pharmaceuticals goes under, no one will buy the Water of Life anymore. The company’s predicament will remain unchanged."

Lu Siyu frowned, "Then what should we do?"

After a moment of thought, Lu Huifa said, "Right now our only option is to seek peace with Qingfan Pharmaceuticals. If they’re willing to work with us, not only will our predicament be resolved, but the position of Lu Pharmaceuticals in the pharmaceutical industry will also become more secure."

Lu Siyu showed reluctance on his face, "Doesn’t that mean we have to help Qingfan Pharmaceuticals grow?"

Lu Huifa let out a cold laugh, "Help them grow? You’re thinking too much. After all, they are just a small company. If we extend an olive branch, they will surely leap at the chance to cooperate with us."

"And once we get our hands on the formula for Life Spiritual Liquid, we can kick them to the curb and enjoy the fruits alone."

Lu Siyu’s eyes lit up, "Dad, you’re really astute."

Lu Huifa revealed a smile full of cunning, "Book a table at Xiangjun Mansion, invite that Chen Fan and Lu Jinyuan over, and say that the Lu Clan has admitted defeat."

"Remember, our attitude must be humble. Before we get the formula, we can only act submissively. Once we have the formula, we will be the ones calling the shots. Understand?"

Lu Siyu displayed a smile, "Don’t worry, Dad, I get it."

...

Mingyue Hotel.

At the entrance, Liu Yunxi, wearing a tight-fitting long dress, looked at Chen Fan with reluctance to leave.

Today, she wasn’t disguising her face, and a few black business cars were waiting nearby with a dozen bodyguards standing in front of them.

"I’m leaving, and you don’t have something to say?" Liu Yunxi looked at Chen Fan with wide eyes.

Chen Fan smiled and said, "Safe travels; no escort needed."

Liu Yunxi looked annoyed, "After all, we’ve lived together for so many days, and you even stole my first kiss. Now, you’re so eager to let me go?"

Chen Fan shrugged, "I like it quiet."

Liu Yunxi clenched her small fists, "Am I that annoying?"

She swirled her big eyes around, planning to steal another kiss from Chen Fan before leaving, to settle the score in her heart.

Not far away, a few passersby noticed Liu Yunxi.

"My goodness, isn’t that Liu Yunxi? Am I seeing right?"

"It’s her! I can’t believe our luck, to actually encounter her in person. She’s even more beautiful than on TV."

"She seems to be in a bad mood, though. Did that guy make her angry or something?"

"Damn it, Liu Yunxi is my idol. This guy dares to make my idol angry? He really has a death wish. Let’s go over there and give him a piece of our minds!"

...

A few people walked over, furious.

Just then, Liu Yunxi suddenly moved closer to Chen Fan, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed him.

Chen Fan quickly turned his head to the side, but he couldn’t avoid it completely and was kissed by Liu Yunxi on the cheek.

Liu Yunxi, clearly upset, said, "I wanted to kiss you on the lips!"

Chen Fan was speechless and pushed her away, "Let’s get out of here quickly, or I’ll get angry."

Liu Yunxi stomped her foot in frustration, "Whenever I have time, I’ll come looking for you. If you find me annoying, I’ll annoy you for a lifetime!"

Having said that, she turned and walked toward the car.

Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally sent this young lady off."

The bystanders were all stunned by the scene.

"My goddess... actually kissed that guy!"

"And that guy looks so disdainful, what’s he thinking?"

"That guy is just ordinary, I think I’m even better than him. Could it be that Liu Yunxi likes this type? Then do I also have a chance?"

Feeling pretty good about himself, the man thought he shouldn’t miss the opportunity, and mustering up his courage, he ran up to Liu Yunxi, "Yunxi, I’m your fan. I feel like I’m your type too. Can you give me a chance...?"

Liu Yunxi gave the man a strange look, "Crazy."

She then got into the car and instructed her driver, "Let’s go quickly, another delusional fan is having a fit."

The driver accelerated away, leaving the man in disarray amid the exhaust fumes.

Lu Jinyuan came over to Chen Fan and, looking at the departing car, said with a smile, "Mr. Chen, I’m really envious of you. That Liu Yunxi obviously has a lot of energy. You must’ve been worn out these past few days, right?"

Chen Fan frowned slightly, "What do you mean ’worn out’?"

Lu Jinyuan chuckled, "Well, yes, of course Mr. Chen has even more energy. How could you be worn out? My bad, my bad."

Chen Fan was at a loss for words, "What are you talking about?"

Thinking that Chen Fan didn’t want to make a fuss about it, Lu Jinyuan coughed lightly, "Understood, understood. I’ll keep this matter a secret for Mr. Chen."

Chen Fan suddenly felt an urge to hit someone and gave him a glare before asking, "What brings you here?"

Lu Jinyuan got serious, "Lu Siyu called me. The Lu Family is backing down. They plan to host an apology dinner for us tonight at Xiangjun Mansion."

Chen Fan was surprised, "They’re giving in just like that?"

Lu Jinyuan confirmed, "Lu Siyu’s attitude was very sincere. He spoke to me with the demeanor of a humble grandson, and his father will personally apologize to us tonight. They’re also interested in cooperation. It doesn’t seem fake."

Chen Fan smiled, "Looks like his father is a man of vision, much more reasonable than Lu Siyu."

"Since they’re so sincere, let’s meet them tonight. If they genuinely want to cooperate, I wouldn’t mind giving them a chance."
