Chapter 92: Chapter 92: Invitation

Upon seeing this, Jiang Tianyi panicked. "Brother, don’t!"

However, it was too late.

An indescribable flavor spread across Jiang Tianquan’s taste buds. "This taste... why is it so familiar?"

Jiang Tianyi broke out in a cold sweat, stammering and not daring to speak.

"The taste of shit?" The sudden realization almost made Jiang Tianquan vomit last night’s dinner. Seething with absolute fury, he smashed the medicine bottle on the ground.

CRASH!

The bottle shattered across the floor.

Jiang Tianyi’s heart ached at the loss. "Brother, that medicine was worth thirty million..."

With the unspeakable taste still lingering in his mouth, Jiang Tianquan was so angry he nearly slapped him. But when he saw Jiang Tianyi’s face smeared with the unknown substance, he restrained himself and kicked him to the ground instead.

Jiang Tianquan said coldly, "You call a pile of shit an antidote? Are you fucking brain-dead?"

Jiang Tianyi and the others trembled, not daring to speak. They had only applied a bit of the medicine to their faces and already felt deeply humiliated. They couldn’t begin to imagine the fury of Jiang Tianquan, who had just tasted the so-called antidote right in front of them.

Jiang Tianyi said tremblingly, "Brother, we only found out later. Besides, no matter what it’s made of, at least it works, right?"

"And it’s not ordinary excrement; it’s specially refined Golden Juice..."

Jiang Tianquan was livid.

Does changing its name change its nature?

However, he couldn’t bring it up again. Dwelling on it would only bring him more shame. After all, those three idiots had only smeared it on their faces, while he had actually tasted it.

Seeing Jiang Tianquan’s rage building, Qin Zihao seized the opportunity. "Young Master Jiang, that guy is constantly toying with us, and he’s far too arrogant. We must find a way to get our revenge!"

Jiang Tianquan’s face turned ashen. To a certain extent, Chen Xiao had severely disrupted their plans and thoroughly provoked his anger.

If I don’t deal with this guy soon, I’m going to have a mental breakdown.

At this thought, he said with a grim expression, "This guy isn’t an ordinary person; normal methods won’t work on him. Besides, this needs to be handled discreetly, which won’t be easy."

"We need... to lure him out first!"

A cold glint flashed in his eyes. "As long as we lure him out, everything else will be simple. I have a hundred ways to get rid of him without anyone ever knowing."

Jiang Tianyi cautioned, "Brother, this guy has some tricks up his sleeve. Even Chen Shu was no match for him."

"Chen Shu is old news," Jiang Tianquan scoffed. "Where I used to work, there were plenty of people stronger than Chen Shu. That kid looks intimidating, but he’s really nothing special."

"It’s beneath me to deal with him personally."

"The people our Jiang Family employs aren’t just freeloaders. Dealing with him won’t be a difficult task!"

Jiang Tianyi’s eyes lit up. "In that case, I think we can start with that bitch Luo Qingli..."

"Yes, yes!" Qin Zihao nodded eagerly. "As long as we can get ahold of Luo Qingli, won’t that kid be completely at our mercy?"

Jiang Tianyi’s face twisted into a vicious sneer. "And there’s the Dragon Heart Herb and formula in his possession! We can take this opportunity... to get our hands on everything!"

「Inside the villa.」

Chen Xiao, bare-chested, got up and walked into the bathroom.

Luo Qingli, meanwhile, looked exhausted, her pretty face flushed as she was wrapped tightly in a quilt. Beads of sweat dotted her skin, but she had no desire to move, merely holding her phone and binge-watching a show.

Just then, a message popped up on her screen.

Who would be messaging me this late?

She opened it and saw it was from Zhang Yaoyang. After a moment’s hesitation, she replied with a "?".

After her response, the ever-persistent Zhang Yaoyang called her directly.

Luo Qingli was somewhat exasperated.

Chen Xiao’s voice came from the bathroom, "Was that my phone?"

"No, it’s for me," Luo Qingli said, declining the call. She sent a text back, "If you have something to say, Senior, please text me. A phone call will disturb my husband’s rest."

The thought of his beloved goddess in the same room with Chen Xiao, possibly having just endured a violent ordeal, made Zhang Yaoyang’s heart ache.

"Qingli, why have you suddenly become so cold to me?"

Luo Qingli replied coolly, "Senior, you may have had the wrong idea about me. If so, I apologize."

Zhang Yaoyang gritted his teeth and sent another message. "Qingli, I was beaten up because of you, and I still haven’t fully recovered. Your coldness... it’s breaking my heart!"

Luo Qingli frowned. To win her favor, Zhang Yaoyang had claimed he was the one who secured the Wushuang Corporation contract. He even used that billion-dollar deal to threaten her. Since then, she had seen his true colors and didn’t even want to be friends with him anymore.

"Senior, I’m terribly sorry. I bear some responsibility for what happened. I’ll make it up to you and apologize properly when I have the chance."

It was just meant as a polite remark, but Zhang Yaoyang seized the opportunity and pushed his luck. "Alright! In that case, treat me to dinner tomorrow night. And by the way, make sure Chen Xiao isn’t there. I don’t want to see him."

"You can grant me this one small request, can’t you?"
