CHAPTER 1081: CHAPTER 1081: ASKING HIM TO COME OUT OF RETIREMENT

"Ah! It hurts! What’s happening?"

Wang Yan felt like her face was burning, the prickling pain had reached an unbearable level.

"Ah?"

Upon seeing her reflection in the mirror, Wang Yan stumbled back in fright, almost falling to the ground.

Her face was actually rotting bit by bit, the skin slowly cracking open, oozing blood and pus.

"Ah..."

The piercing pain was shocking Wang Yan’s nerves, making her scream out loud, nearly fainting.

"What’s happening?"

Fear flashed in Wang Yan’s eyes, and her first thought was about the Spirit of Nature product Xi Dazhuang brought back from Chu Corporation.

"Ah! My face!"

The degree of rotting on Wang Yan’s face was gradually increasing, the burning stinging felt as if her entire face was about to explode.

"Ah..."

Amidst a hysterical scream, akin to a pig being slaughtered, Wang Yan finally couldn’t take it any longer and fell to the ground unconscious.

...

The next day, early morning.

At the villa, by a small lake, Ye Mingtian was skillfully practicing a set of Tai Chi.

At this time, Ye Mingtian’s twin flower secretaries arrived.

"Speak!"

Ye Mingtian continued practicing Tai Chi, saying without pausing.

"Mr. Ye, the team led by Dr. Jack worked through the night and achieved great results, predicting that by noon the components can be fully extracted, cutting down the time plan by half." said the secretary.

Ye Mingtian beamed: "Great, that’s the speed I want."

"Bad news, Mr. Ye, there’s trouble."

At that moment, a middle-aged man in a suit rushed over, breaking the silence and disrupting the peaceful atmosphere.

"What is it? What’s so urgent?" Ye Mingtian asked with a frown.

"Mr. Ye, it’s bad news, Wang... Wang Yan is in trouble." the middle-aged man gasped.

A flash of brilliance appeared in Ye Mingtian’s eyes, and he exclaimed: "What? Quickly, take me to see."

In the suite where Wang Yan was staying, it was already crowded with people, and Wang Yan had been placed on the bed.

But her rotting face deterred many, making them reluctant to approach.

"Ah?"

Upon seeing Wang Yan’s appearance, the twin flower secretaries beside Ye Mingtian were instantly horrified.

"What’s wrong?"

Ye Mingtian stepped forward to ask, but his mind quickly comprehended everything.

"The sample is fake, tell Dr. Jack’s team to stop immediately." Ye Mingtian shouted.

"Ah? The sample is fake?" Everyone present was stunned.

If Wang Yan’s condition had not been discovered, the fake Spirit of Nature might have gone into production.

The loss of cost was bearable, but once the product launched, it would be disastrous, Mingtian’s team might be completely destroyed because of it.

Thinking of this, everyone broke out in a cold sweat.

This was terrifying.

"Chu Qingxue, I once again underestimated you!" Ye Mingtian gritted his teeth.

"Mr. Ye, you must give me an explanation for this matter, for us to have worked hard all night, only to find out it’s fake, there has to be an explanation." At that time, an old man in a white lab coat approached angrily. He was none other than Dr. Jack!

Ye Mingtian calmly replied: "Dr. Jack, I will give you an explanation for this matter." However, a bloodthirsty killing intent flashed through Ye Mingtian’s eyes, unseen by anyone else.

"My face, I’m disfigured, I’m disfigured... Xi Dazhuang, I won’t let you go." At this moment, Wang Yan screamed from the bed.

After a doctor’s diagnosis, the area and degree of her rotting were too large, and because she had fainted, she missed the optimal treatment time, making recovery impossible unless she underwent complete cosmetic surgery to fully replace her face.

...

Today, Xi Dazhuang came specifically to find Chu Qingxue to explain, using this opportunity Ye Chenfeng told him everything.

At first, Xi Dazhuang didn’t believe it, but after Chu Qingxue’s repeated explanations, Xi Dazhuang believed.

"It’s alright, President Chu, this matter was my fault, what you did was correct. If you hadn’t discovered it in advance, I would’ve caused significant losses to the company this time." Xi Dazhuang apologized.

His whole demeanour was even more crestfallen, clearly the incident significantly impacted him.

"President Chu, I request half a day’s leave to inform my father of this matter; he would be even less able to accept it." Xi Dazhuang hesitated before speaking.

"Go ahead, if you need any help, feel free to ask."

"Thank you, President Chu!"

...

"Who are you? What do you want?"

"I want to kill you..."

Upon returning home, Xi Dazhuang heard the commotion inside.

"Bang!"

With a kick, he broke open the door, where a rotting-faced woman was holding a fruit knife, stabbing towards Xi Fengchang.

"Out!"

Xi Dazhuang was quick to react, like lightning, as his oversized foot lifted, kicking towards the woman’s abdomen.

"Thud!"

The woman hit the wall before falling to the ground, writhing as she struggled multiple times to get up but failed.

"Dazhuang, who is she?" Xi Fengchang asked, still shaken.

Xi Dazhuang told Xi Fengchang everything that happened, Xi Fengchang listened as if hearing a thriller story.

"Xi Dazhuang, Xi Fengchang, I won’t let you off!"

Wang Yan seemed to regain some strength, cursed loudly, got up, and ran outside.

"Forget it Dazhuang, don’t chase her, she’s already like this. Turns out we’ve been deceived." Xi Fengchang sighed in frustration.

...

"Chu Qingxue, I have once again lost to you. I was quite excited the first time, but this time I can’t describe the feeling." Ye Mingtian said self-mockingly.

The twin flower secretaries just stood aside, silent and fearful.

"But don’t worry, I’ll slowly play along with you." But then, hope appeared to rise in Ye Mingtian’s eyes.

"Mr. Ye, currently Chu Corporation is in the limelight, I just heard they’re launching the Spirit of Nature new product ahead of schedule. This will be a huge blow to us."

"Haha, Qingxue, your moves are too quick, catching me completely off guard." Ye Mingtian’s face was a wonderful mix of expressions, possibly the first time showing such complex emotions.

"Mr. Ye, there’s also the matter that all of our business spies sent out have been eliminated. All of our previous efforts are wasted."

A mocking smile appeared at the corner of Ye Mingtian’s mouth: "Well, good, looks like I have to bring him out."

Hearing this, the twin flower secretaries’ eyes lit up, excitedly saying: "So Mr. Ye already has a plan."
