“Shen Shao, thank you!”
Qin Ningbing closed her beautiful eyes, letting out a soft sigh, appearing somewhat haggard.
Her mother had passed away early, and her father had also died unexpectedly a few years prior.
Fresh out of university, Qin Ningbing took over the Magic City Renxin Hall Pharmaceutical Company, a multi-billion dollar conglomerate.
There was also Wang Hai, the second largest shareholder, who had rallied a group of high-level executives to oppose her, seeking to seize control and take the company public to profit.
She never expected that one of the few elders she trusted, Divine Doctor Lu, would actually be bribed by Wang Hai.
This made her feel very weary.
Just then, her cold little hand was clasped by a warm, large hand.
Qin Ningbing was startled, opening her eyes to see Shen Anyu’s warm and sincere smile.
“My darling, I told you, with me here, no one can harm you!”
“I will protect you, for all eternity!”
Qin Ningbing stared blankly at Shen Anyu, then suddenly chuckled, covering her red lips, her eyes filled with mirth, and actually joked with Shen Anyu, saying:
“Shen Da Shao, Ningbing isn’t some naive, simple little girl; save those sweet nothings and vows for those other young ladies.”
“Ding! Detected an increase in the destined heroine Qin Ningbing’s favorability by +10, plundering +30,000 Destiny Value!”
Shen Anyu’s expression was peculiar.
Oh, women, your name is 'saying one thing but meaning another'.
They clearly want something desperately in their hearts, but their mouths say the opposite.
Qin Ningbing’s pretty face flushed under Shen Anyu’s playful gaze, and she changed the subject, saying:
“Shen Shao, how do you plan to research the Ginseng Nourishing Heart Pill?”
“Three months is a very tight deadline!”
Shen Anyu smiled faintly, saying:
“I can’t wait three months!”
“Three hours should be enough.”
He wanted to do everything tonight, why would he wait three months?
If you give Brother Kun a three-month vacation, Brother Kun will be very unhappy!
He couldn't fight valiantly yesterday, so today he needs double the surprise.
What?
Three hours is enough?
As Shen Anyu’s words fell, Qin Ningbing felt as if she had misheard, looking at Shen Anyu with bewildered surprise, asking:
“Shen Shao, did I mishear you, three hours??”
Even if the Yanxia Shen Family is a thousand-year-old aristocratic family with terrifyingly deep foundations, capable of gathering all top experts, scholars, and divine doctors from both domestic and abroad, three hours isn't even enough time for a plane to arrive, is it?
Isn't this a joke?
The surrounding researchers also pricked up their ears, but inwardly, they all disagreed.
Three hours, what a joke. Even three months would be impossible.
They had spent three years on it in the past, and even with Divine Doctor Lu’s manipulations, they knew how difficult the research and development of the Ginseng Nourishing Heart Pill was.
They were all groping in a dark maze, unable to find their way.
However, because Shen Anyu had just waved his hand and dozens of black-clad bodyguards appeared, they knew he was an important figure and dared not speak out, lowering their heads.
They all speculated which profligate young master had come to pursue their company’s famous beautiful CEO.
Using such an unreliable excuse, he would probably be rebuffed again!
“Hmm, you misheard, it’s not three hours.”
Shen Anyu thought for a moment and said.
Qin Ningbing breathed a sigh of relief, saying with a laugh:
“I knew it; Shen Shao, you startled me.”
At this moment, Shen Anyu suddenly said with a beaming smile:
“To be precise, it takes me three minutes to produce the Ginseng Nourishing Heart Pill; three hours is for you all to verify it!”
Qin Ningbing and the surrounding researchers were speechless; they simply didn't believe him.
And at this very moment, under everyone’s watchful eyes, Shen Anyu leisurely walked to the herb storage, swiftly grabbing a pile of medicinal herbs with both hands, without even needing a scale.
A researcher in a corner, watching Shen Anyu grab the herbs, couldn’t help but mutter softly:
“In the ‘Eighteen Antagonisms and Nineteen Incompatibilities of Chinese Medicine,’ it’s clearly stated that ginseng cannot be used with Wu Lingzhi. Isn’t this just messing around?”
“Grabbing herbs like this, can the proportions really be accurate? They’re all mixed together?”
“And three minutes, isn’t that not even enough time to grind them? What can he possibly make?”
The other researchers, though not daring to speak out loud, were all disbelieving, waiting to see the show.
And Qin Ningbing’s beautiful eyes showed a hint of disappointment; just now, she had to admit that a ripple had stirred in her heart.
But now, it seemed a bit unreliable…
However, this also made Qin Ningbing breathe a sigh of relief; the more unreliable Shen Anyu was, the better, for then she would be safe.
No need for any of that 'inside and out' business.
However, the next scene left Qin Ningbing and many researchers completely dumbfounded.
Shen Anyu merely swept his hand, Internal Energy surging forth, and with a 'bang', the medicinal herbs were instantly shattered into powder.
Within the profound Internal Energy of a Grandmaster, they were directly heated, rapidly melted, and transformed into the shape of pills, hovering unstably in mid-air.
Seeing this scene, Qin Ningbing’s rosy little mouth gaped open, making one want to stuff something into it.
“How is this possible?”
She was utterly stunned; could things be done this way? Was this scientific?
The other highly educated researchers were also wide-eyed and speechless, utterly flabbergasted, practically questioning their decades of scientific, life, and world views.
For a moment, the entire laboratory was silent, everyone staring blankly at Shen Anyu, their minds a blank.
“Alright, three minutes are up!”
Suddenly, Shen Anyu’s calm voice came, and with a flick of his finger, the Ginseng Nourishing Heart Pills, harmonized by Internal Energy, directly shot into the mouths of the white mice suffering from heart disease.
Visibly, those sickly white mice actually became energetic.
As if they had regained vigorous vitality.
Shen Anyu’s unhurried voice rang out:
“I’m in a hurry, so I took a shortcut using Internal Energy!”
“You all hurry up and test them. If it exceeds three hours, hehe, I’ll see who else is an accomplice like that Divine Doctor Lu!”
Boom!
As Shen Anyu’s words fell, the numerous researchers, as if an engine had been pressed, roared into action, quickly beginning to test the white mice.
Each of them was sweating profusely.
The tragic state of Divine Doctor Lu earlier was still vivid in their minds.
However, the numerous researchers also had fervent and excited looks in their eyes.
That miraculous scene just now gave them great confidence.
Perhaps the Ginseng Nourishing Heart Pill might really succeed.
At that time, it would surely cause a sensation in Yanxia and even the global medical community!
They too would be able to bask in some of that glory!
Finally, under the full-throttle testing of these researchers, the results came out an hour early.
All the white mice suffering from heart disease, as long as they took the Ginseng Nourishing Heart Pill refined by Shen Anyu, showed significant improvement, with extremely obvious effects.
If taken long-term, it was even highly possible for them to fully recover!
Qin Ningbing was dumbfounded, staring blankly at Shen Anyu, and asked with a trembling voice:
“You, do you mean you already had the prescription for the Ginseng Nourishing Heart Pill?”
Shen Anyu tilted his head, looking at Qin Ningbing with a half-smile, and said:
“Yes, I thought you were giving me a benefit.”
“My darling, now it’s your turn to fulfill your promise!”
“You have to accept the consequences of losing a bet!”
Qin Ningbing felt as if struck by lightning, her delicate body trembling!
