"Master..."
The middle-aged man’s face was respectful.
"Mm!"
Bai Zhen took a deep breath, "Regarding Xue'er's matter, it seems to be troublesome. Throughout Jiang Province, Jiang Yi is the first person to not give me face. He's even more arrogant than I am."
The middle-aged man wore a look of helplessness.
But he dared not speak.
"What's with that expression?" A trace of anger flashed across Bai Zhen's face.
"Master, please don't be angry if I say this," the middle-aged man said.
"Speak! I won't be angry!" Bai Zhen replied.
"Master, Jiang Yi is a divine doctor, and divine doctors are naturally very arrogant. If you speak to him with such an attitude, he certainly won't be willing to help."
After speaking, the middle-aged man continued, "Actually, this matter can't be blamed on you. You are the chairman of the Jiang Province Chamber of Commerce. Normally, others fawn over you and ask you for favors. You have never asked anyone for help before. It's natural to feel a bit reluctant to lower yourself when asking for help for the first time..."
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhen immediately understood.
"Master, I'll go talk to Jiang Yi! If I can't succeed, then you can personally go find him," the middle-aged man said.
"Mm!"
Bai Zhen nodded.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yi returned directly to the villa.
Dongfang Mei put down the magazine she was holding, picked up her wine glass, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile, "I truly underestimated you before. I never thought you had more than this. Of the ten lost acupuncture techniques, you know four. You can't find another person like that in the entire Huaxia Nation."
"You sent someone to follow me again?" Jiang Yi frowned.
"This time, I was protecting you!"
Dongfang Mei said, "Bai Zhen, the chairman of the Jiang Province Chamber of Commerce, was secretly following you with his granddaughter. I was worried he might do something adverse to you, so I secretly sent people to keep an eye on things."
Jiang Yi was somewhat speechless.
This was clearly Dongfang Mei's excuse.
He knew his own abilities; no one could do anything to him!
"My mother really admires you and wants you to be her son-in-law. If something happened to you, how would I explain it to my mother?"
Dongfang Mei showed a charming and captivating smile.
Dongfang Mei was teasing Jiang Yi again.
Jiang Yi didn't want to bother with Dongfang Mei and got up to walk towards the backyard.
Jiang Yi planned to make some more perfume.
These perfumes were so popular among many people. Since he had time now, he should make more.
"That woman Shen Lu is not simple. You have to be wary of her!" Dongfang Mei said to Jiang Yi.
"You investigated her?" Jiang Yi couldn't help but ask.
"That's right!"
Dongfang Mei admitted directly, "You're working at her hospital, so naturally, I have to investigate clearly to prevent you from falling into this woman's trap. I'm doing all this for you."
"What is Shen Lu's background?" Jiang Yi asked.
"She's the daughter of a pharmaceutical family in Lidu City. Shen's Pharmaceutical Group belongs to Shen Lu's family."
Dongfang Mei said, "Shen Lu was born to the head of the Shen family and a lover. She is not well-received in the Shen family. However, don't underestimate her. Her ambition is very great. On the surface, she doesn't contend for power and profit with her family members, but behind their backs, she is secretly developing her forces."
Jiang Yi's brow furrowed slightly.
It seemed this Shen Lu was indeed not simple.
However, Jiang Yi had no interest in Shen Lu's affairs. He only went to work at her hospital to find that female assassin. Other people's matters had nothing to do with him.
"Is it possible that Shen Lu is that female assassin?" Jiang Yi asked.
"It's possible, and it's also possible that she isn't!" Dongfang Mei said.
"What does that mean?" Jiang Yi looked at Dongfang Mei.
"The assassin organization you're looking for is a very peculiar assassin organization!"
Dongfang Mei said, "This assassin organization has a rule: any assassin from this organization must cultivate a qualified successor to take over their position before they retire. Therefore, anyone could be an assassin from this organization; they might even be hidden among us."
Finishing, Dongfang Mei continued, "The reason you haven't found any trace of this assassin organization for so many years is precisely this. It makes the assassins from this organization very discreet."
Jiang Yi took a deep breath.
It was as he had guessed.
When he had caught the taxi driver back then, he had already had this suspicion.
Even a taxi driver was an assassin from an assassin organization. Anyone around him could be a member of this organization.
Jiang Yi decided to start his investigation with Shen Lu.
Having wasted so much time, this matter could not be delayed any further.
Shen Lu regarded him as a divine doctor and was now eager to burn incense to worship him. It would be easy to investigate Shen Lu.
As night fell, Chen Kun arrived!
"Chairman, companies that have been cooperating with Tiansheng Group have progressively canceled their collaborations in the past few days," Chen Kun said to Jiang Yi with a frown. "As of now, only one company remains."
Jiang Yi was somewhat surprised.
He had expected all companies, for self-preservation, to distance themselves from Tiansheng Group before Liu Feng sealed the Tai Nü Sheng Group.
He hadn't expected there to be one company willing to share the hardships with Tiansheng Group.
It was truly rare!
"Take good care of this company in the future. Since they are loyal to Tiansheng Group, Tiansheng Group cannot treat them unfairly," Jiang Yi said.
"Yes!"
Chen Kun nodded.
"Have Dong Rui find the boss of this company, sign a perpetual agreement, and support this company. It will be of great use to Tiansheng Group in the future," Jiang Yi said.
"Mm!"
Chen Kun readily agreed.
"What is the name of this company?" Jiang Yi asked Chen Kun.
"I don't know. I heard it from Dong Rui," Chen Kun said.
Jiang Yi didn't press further.
This matter could be handled by Dong Rui.
The most important thing now was to find that female assassin.
"There's something I need you to do for me!" Jiang Yi said to Chen Kun.
"Chairman, as long as I can do it, I will go all out," Chen Kun replied.
"Find a way to test Shen Lu, the dean of Jiangcheng First People's Hospital, and see how her combat skills are," Jiang Yi said with a slight smile. "If you succeed, I'll teach you a few moves of combat techniques."
Jiang Yi had only taught Chen Kun a superficial part of his Jiang Family Combat Techniques; there was still much he hadn't taught him.
Chen Kun's face was filled with excitement upon hearing this.
He knew how formidable Jiang Yi's combat techniques were.
The night passed without incident!
The next morning, Jiang Yi got up early.
After breakfast, he drove his car to Jiangcheng First Hospital.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Jiang Yi parked his car in the hospital parking lot.
As soon as he got out of the car, many hospital doctors immediately ran over to greet Jiang Yi, their tones filled with respect.
Everyone in the hospital knew about what happened in the hospital yesterday.
Jiang Yi had become a prominent figure in the hospital, and their attitude towards him was even more respectful than towards Shen Lu.
Jiang Yi did not put on airs and responded to everyone.
"Doctor Zhang, good morning!"
The vice-dean got out of his car and greeted Jiang Yi with a smile.
