CHAPTER 605: CHAPTER 594: THE DIVINE DOCTOR FATHER OF THE WEALTHY DAUGHTER-IN-LAW

"Her dad actually developed a drug that inhibits cancer cells and treats skin regeneration? How is that possible?" Gao Juan looked at the news on the TV with disbelief.

But this is the national channel, the national channel wouldn’t broadcast fake news, right?

"But isn’t Ye Chan’s dad just a gambler? Even if he stopped gambling, with his image of someone who couldn’t even make it in a small hospital, how could he possibly make such a huge contribution?" Gao Juan kept muttering about the impossibility, clearly unwilling to accept this fact.

Li Pengcheng, on the other hand, was thinking about something else. He watched the news; the patient with extensive burns indeed had skin regeneration without leaving any scars, and the newly grown skin was even smoother and fairer.

He thought further, what if this drug formula was used in skincare products? Wouldn’t such skincare products make a killing?

Li Pengcheng made his fortune in the daily chemical industry; now shampoo, shower gel, and other products are available in supermarkets all over the country. But he is not satisfied, having started to get into cosmetics in the past two years.

Because people nowadays are richer and care more about their appearance, a well-reputed cosmetic product can be much more profitable than shower gel or shampoo.

But no matter how much advertising they do, domestic consumers just don’t trust local cosmetics, causing him to watch helplessly as the money slipped through his fingers, watching foreigners make a fortune.

But now it’s different. Ye Qiu’s technology has been nationally certified, and its effects have been verified on TV. Once this pharmacy formula is converted into skincare products, one can imagine how many would buy it for their beauty.

Li Pengcheng’s eyes sparkled, as if he already saw his Pengcheng Group going international.

But the biggest problem now lay before him, his son and Ye Chan had already divorced, how was he supposed to get the formula from Ye Qiu?

"I don’t believe it, I don’t believe Ye Chan’s dad has such ability, he must have stolen someone else’s achievement, it must be so." Gao Juan kept muttering, a look of envy appearing in her eyes.

"Enough with the nonsense, do you think the country wouldn’t investigate thoroughly before awarding the prize?" Li Pengcheng roared.

Gao Juan was startled, followed by a long silence.

"Where’s Chengyu? Where did he go?" Li Pengcheng asked her.

"He’s with Su Qin."

Li Pengcheng knew Su Qin; it was because of her and the child in her womb that Ye Chan divorced his son.

"Call him and tell him to come back," he ordered.

"Su Qin said she wasn’t feeling well, Chengyu went with her for a checkup, can’t we talk after the checkup?" Gao Juan frowned. After all, the woman was carrying her precious grandson; there couldn’t be any mishap.

At this remark, unexpectedly, Li Pengcheng, who had always stayed out of it, became angry: "Not feeling well, not feeling well, so many women get pregnant every day, I’ve never seen anyone as fussy as her. How many times has Chengyu run to her since the divorce? If she’s so fragile, then don’t have the baby; immediately call Chengyu back for me."

"What happened?" Gao Juan didn’t dare to retort, she called Li Chengyu while muttering.

When Li Chengyu received the call, he was under Su Qin’s orders, washing strawberries. He’d always been the Eldest Young Master, unaccustomed to such tasks, but Su Qin acted spoiled saying the baby in her womb wanted to eat them, so he went, frowning all the while. After all, this child was obtained through a divorce and is also the precious grandson in his parents’ eyes; he didn’t want anything to go wrong.

"Mom, what’s wrong?" Li Chengyu asked.

"Your dad is calling you to come back immediately, seems like there’s something very important," Gao Juan whispered after glancing at Li Pengcheng.

"Oh, I see." Li Chengyu hung up the phone, placed the washed strawberries in front of Su Qin, and was about to leave.

"Hey, Chengyu, where are you going?" Su Qin hurried to the door, her nearly six-months pregnant belly bouncing as she ran, causing some alarm.

"Slow down, what if you hurt the child?" Li Chengyu frowned and scolded.

But Su Qin wasn’t scared at all, instead she smiled coquettishly: "Ah, I was just worried about you that I forgot for a moment, don’t worry, I treasure this child no less than you do, he will definitely be healthy."

After saying that, she pulled on Li Chengyu’s clothes with a pitiful look: "It’s so late, where are you going? Can’t you stay and keep me and the child company? We’ll be scared."

Li Chengyu, having no penchant for romance, or more precisely no love for Su Qin, was somewhat impatient: "Isn’t the nanny here? Su Qin, don’t forget your place." After saying that, he slammed the door and left.

Inside, Su Qin narrowed her eyes, a trace of disdain curling at the corner of her mouth.

Hmph! Such is a man! But me, Su Qin, giving up a bright future to be a mistress, never did I plan to just take the money and leave. The Li family wants me to just give birth to the child and leave? Not going to be that easy!

On the other side, Li Chengyu rushed back home, only to receive an order so shocking he couldn’t believe it.

"Dad, you want me to make amends with Ye Chan, to remarry her?" He asked, eyes wide.

"Pengcheng, what are you thinking? Why would the son divorce Ye Chan, that woman? She can’t even have children, what’s the point of remarrying her?" Gao Juan also stood up, protesting.

Li Chengyu and his mother had different thoughts, he sighed softly and said, "Dad, Ye Chan knows about my affair, and that I’m about to have an illegitimate child, she definitely won’t agree to remarry."

"Then let the mistress go and abort the child she’s carrying," Li Pengcheng said decisively and without mercy.

"Are you insane!" Gao Juan looked at her husband in disbelief, "That’s our grandson, and we have checked, it’s a boy!"

"Children can be had any time, but we must get Ye Chan back. And originally, the examination only showed she was less likely to conceive, maybe she could try IVF (in-vitro fertilization)?"

"Didn’t you say IVF would subject us to ridicule?" Gao Juan asked, confused. "What reason do you have that makes it so imperative for Ye Chan to come back?"

"Dad, why are you making this decision?" It must be said, Li Chengyu was actually tempted; after all, he still had feelings for Ye Chan, and if it hadn’t been for his parents’ pressure, he wouldn’t have looked for another woman to have a child with.

"Because only if Ye Chan comes back do we have a chance to get Ye Qiu’s skin treatment formula," Li Pengcheng said, eyes gleaming with determination, "Chengyu, Dad knows you still like Ye Chan. Go, win her back. As long as she returns, you agree to any condition she asks for."

"I disagree." Gao Juan said sternly, "Our relations with Ye Chan are already so strained, she will definitely make huge demands."

"Ignorant woman," Li Pengcheng said coldly. "No matter her conditions, once she remarries Chengyu, won’t all those things eventually belong to our family?"

"Mom, Dad, Brother, what are you arguing about again?" Li Xinyi asked with a troubled expression as she came out of her room.

"It’s nothing, just something about your brother and your elder sister-in-law, don’t worry about it, go back and rest," Gao Juan said, quickly expressing concern upon seeing her increasingly haggard daughter.
