Chapter Index

    “I came to Yunzhou because Tianqing has a lab there and they invited me to lead the new project team…”

    The foreign old man revealed everything about Tianqing without any pressure, speaking nonstop.

    Wang Zhanhang glared angrily, wishing he could kill this guy. His gaze suddenly landed on a gun at the waist of a bodyguard beside him.

    Gritting his teeth, Wang Zhanhang lunged forward, seized the gun, and pulled the trigger at the foreign old man.

    “Bang! Bang! Bang!”

    Three shots were fired, the foreign old man’s voice died, his body slowly fell, and blood continuously oozed from the gunshot in his chest.

    Just as Wang Zhanhang aimed the gun at Chen Dongqiu.

    “Bang! Bang!”

    Gunshots suddenly rang out, Wang Zhanhang’s legs were pierced by bullets, and he fell heavily to the ground.

    The gun in his hand flew out.

    Then a group of bodyguards rushed up and subdued him.

    Chen Dongqiu stood there, his face pale as a cold sweat trickled down his cheek.

    That was close.

    Immediately after, his face turned grim, staring intently at the bodyguard who lost the gun.

    “Boss.”

    The bodyguard lowered his head in shame.

    Everyone had been so focused on the foreign old man’s words that they overlooked Wang Zhanhang on the ground, giving him a chance.

    “Bang!”

    Chen Dongqiu kicked the bodyguard hard.

    “Uh-huh.”

    The bodyguard groaned, stepped back two steps, remained silent, and did not plead.

    “Bang!”

    Chen Dongqiu stepped forward two steps and kicked again.

    “Thud!”

    This time, the bodyguard was directly kicked to the ground, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.

    After all, Chen Dongqiu had injected market-available genetic serum, even diluted, his body had undergone transformation.

    But it wasn’t over yet.

    Chen Dongqiu grabbed a wooden chair beside him, his eyes full of violence, and smashed it hard at the bodyguard on the ground.

    “Crash!”

    The wooden chair instantly shattered into pieces.

    “Ah!”

    This time, the bodyguard couldn’t help it, letting out a heart-wrenching scream as he curled up on the floor, rolling in pain.

    The other bodyguards watched coldly, their faces showing no emotion.

    “Learned your lesson?”

    Chen Dongqiu asked coldly.

    “Boss, if it happens again, I will swallow, and shoot myself.”

    The bodyguard on the ground gritted his teeth, feeling no resentment.

    As a bodyguard, having his gun taken and almost letting his boss be harmed was unforgivable.

    For this alone, if Chen Dongqiu shot him dead, it wouldn’t be too much.

    Now, being beaten was already considered lenient.

    “Trash! Remember what you said today.”

    Chen Dongqiu scolded coldly, then turned to look at Wang Zhanhang being held down firmly.

    Wang Zhanhang turned to him with a provocative expression.

    Stopping that old bastard from talking further meant victory for him.

    After all, this experiment was of great importance.

    “Clang!”

    Chen Dongqiu lifted a foot and stomped on Wang Zhanhang’s head hard.

    “Ah!”

    Wang Zhanhang screamed.

    With one foot on Wang Zhanhang, Chen Dongqiu took out his phone and called Xu Shaochen to explain what just happened.

    “Find a way to get the lab location out of him.”

    Xu Shaochen’s tone was calm. The significance Tianqing placed on it indicated that what they were researching in Yunzhou’s lab was extraordinary.

    He even wondered if it was another ‘Jade Stone?’ However, he quickly dismissed the thought.

    After all, when his grandfather got such a Jade Stone, it was like having a cheat. In just decades, he established the large Xu Corporation.

    If Tianqing also acquired such a Jade Stone, they wouldn’t just exist in the shadows; they would at least be on par with the Xu Corporation openly.

    Therefore, what’s researched in the Yunzhou lab shouldn’t be that mysterious possibly alien Jade Stone.

    “Yes, Mr. Xu, I will do my best.”

    Chen Dongqiu replied.

    “I’m not asking for your best, I’m saying you must, understand?” Xu Shaochen stressed.

    Hearing Xu Shaochen’s seriousness, Chen Dongqiu took a deep breath. “Yes, Mr. Xu, I will complete the task.”

    “Beep~ beep~ beep~”

    The busy tone from the phone indicated Xu Shaochen had hung up.

    Chen Dongqiu put away the phone, then lifted his foot off Wang Zhanhang’s head. “Take him to my villa in the east suburbs. I will play with him slowly.”

    With his order, two bodyguards dragged Wang Zhiang up and out of the room.

    “Mr. Chen, am I… am I not involved anymore?”

    Song Jie asked cautiously. The sudden gunfire almost scared him to death.

    “Come along, otherwise what if you secretly inform Tianqing? I don’t trust you.”

    Chen Dongqiu looked at him calmly, dropped a line, then walked out of the room without waiting for a response.

    Song Jie had a mournful expression as if a funeral just happened in his family.

    ………..

    Jiangzhou.

    Tianyu Game Company.

    Chairman’s office.

    After hanging up, Xu Shaochen’s face shifted between different emotions.

    What exactly was being researched in Yunzhou’s lab?

    Since acquiring the Paradise Island lab, he had been particularly sensitive about laboratories.

    After thinking for a bit, Xu Shaochen called Wang Kun.

    After the call connected, he didn’t speak immediately but waited for Wang Kun to talk.

    Otherwise, if Wang Kun had others around him, it would easily expose him.

    “Has Wang Zhanhang been caught?”

    Wang Kun’s voice came through the phone.

    Saying this indicated that his surroundings were safe.

    “Caught him, the foreign researcher with him died. Did you know Tianqing has a lab in Yunzhou?”

    Xu Shaochen asked, thinking that being Wang Lan’s son, Wang Kun should know something.

    “A lab in Yunzhou? I’ve never heard of it. Looks like there’s a difference between a bastard and a legitimate son.”

    When Wang Kun said this, Xu Shaochen could hear the gritting teeth over the phone.

    It’s understandable.

    Wang Kun believed that even as a bastard, he was biologically related to Wang Lan, even calling him father.

    No matter how biased Wang Lan was, it wouldn’t be too outrageous.

    But today’s call from Xu Shaochen chilled his heart.

    If Wang Zhanhang didn’t know, maybe he’d feel better.

    But now, knowing that Wang Zhanhang was involved, while he knew nothing.

    The difference in treatment was so significant, proving a bastard isn’t really seen as a son.
