I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

After leaving the factory's R&D department, Qin Ge asked, "Mr. Xue, if you're so certain that the Zhao family's vaccine has a problem, can you guarantee that your vaccine is problem-free?"

"I guarantee it!" Xue Ze solemnly promised, "We have conducted clinical trials, the effects are significant, and there are no side effects!"

"Alright!" Qin Ge pondered for a moment before making a decision. "Qiu Yi will handle the funding issue for you. You continue producing vaccines, the more the better!"

"Starting today, you should stop showing your face in public. I'll also send a few people over."

"Don't overthink it. It's not that I don't trust you, but I'm protecting your personal safety."

"You just focus on producing vaccines; don't worry about anything else. I'll handle everything else."

"However, I have one condition: the vaccine produced cannot be released to the market immediately."

"Why?" Xue Ze asked, puzzled. "We know perfectly well that the Zhao family's vaccine has problems. The more people vaccinated, the harder it will be to control the situation later. Shouldn't we be speeding up the market launch?"

Qin Ge said, "I understand how you feel, but think about it carefully, is your vaccine even useful now that it's on the market?"

"Can you compete with the Zhao family? Does anyone believe in you?"

"The Zhao family's reputation speaks for itself; you won't have a single chance until their vaccine issues are exposed!"

"It's even possible that you'll be the one wiped out first!"

"Let's settle it like this. Compile a report on the situation in Mo City and send it to me; the more detailed, the better!"

Not long after leaving, Zheng Qiuyi started complaining, "Why are you making me pay again?"

"I finally managed to get some money from home, and I haven't even had a chance to enjoy it yet!"

"You're clearly so rich, why don't you invest in Xue Ze yourself?"

Qin Ge countered, "Isn't it you who first offered to invest in them?"

"I need my money, so I'll use yours instead!"

"Besides, haven't you always wanted to prove yourself?"

"Now is the perfect opportunity!"

"Don't try to fool me!" Zheng Qiuyi rolled her eyes at her. "Listen to yourself, are you even speaking human language?"

"Is your money useful, but mine just worthless paper?"

......

Outside a ward at the First Affiliated Hospital of Taipei.

Zheng Hongyin asked anxiously, "Doctor, how is Zhan Ming?"

The doctor sighed helplessly, "The injured person is not in immediate danger of death, and we will arrange surgery as soon as possible, but the shattering of his leg bone is too severe, so you should be prepared."

Even if the recovery is good after surgery, it is impossible to be completely free of sequelae, and there will be some difficulty in movement.

Zheng Hongyin's face darkened. "So, even if he's cured, he'll still be a cripple?"

He grabbed Dong Jin by the collar, "What the hell happened? Who did this?"

Zheng Hongyin was having dinner with several bigwigs tonight when he heard that his son had an accident and was hospitalized. He rushed over immediately without even having time to ask about the details.

"Yes, I am a young man named Qin Ge..." Dong Jin then recounted everything that had happened in the No. 1 private room of Yunding Restaurant.

"Is it Zheng Hongye?" Zheng Hongyin released his grip. "Where did he get the audacity to send someone to harm Zhan Ming? Is he trying to rebel against me and become the head of the Zheng family?"

"I've let him eke out a living all these years, but since he doesn't appreciate it, he can't blame me for not showing any brotherly affection!"

His anger hadn't subsided, but he had calmed down considerably. "Did that Qin Ge really say he was from the Shadow Martial Hall?"

"When did Shadow Martial Hall acquire such a person?"

Zheng Hongyin pondered for a moment, then gestured, "Go and investigate!"

Then he took out his phone, composed himself, and dialed his father's number.

......

Seeing his father put down his phone, Zheng Shaoqing immediately asked, "Dad, was that Uncle's call?"

"Did he come to question Zheng Zhanming because of his matter?"

Zheng Hongye smiled wryly, "It wasn't him, it was your grandfather on the phone, but the meaning was similar."

"Zheng Zhanming was injured so badly, and we were there at the time. Regardless of the facts, we will inevitably be held accountable!"

"Zheng Hongyin really knows how to think!" Zheng Shaoqing sneered. "He quietly complained to Grandpa first, thus defining the nature of this matter."

"If it's found out that Qin Ge injured someone on our orders, we'll be in deep trouble!"

"If it's discovered that Qin Ge's assault was his own doing, and that Zheng Zhanming was being unreasonable first, we'll also be accused of disregarding family ties and standing by and watching Zheng Zhanming get beaten!"

"We can't escape responsibility either way. Zheng Hongyin really knows how to think things through!"

"As expected." Zheng Hongye said calmly. "This matter was never small, and no matter what Zheng Hongyin does, we all bear responsibility."

"Dad," Zheng Shaoqing lowered his voice, his face serious and cautious like a thief, "then what should we do? Continue to endure, continue to be humble, and try to find a way to settle things peacefully?"

"Should we listen to Qin Ge? It's all or nothing?"

"Is Qin Ge trying to fool us?"

"Dad, give me a hint: how confident are you really?"

Zheng Hongye glared at his son. "Can't you think before you speak?!"

"What do you mean, 'this kid' and 'that kid'? Do you think you can call them that?"

"If this gets back to Qin Ge, how do you plan to explain it?"

"How many times have I told you, don't try to be clever, unless you're 100% sure the other person won't notice!"

"Can you outsmart Qin Ge?"

"Don't think that just because Qin Ge didn't hold it against you at the Cloud Top Restaurant, it's nothing. He only didn't bother with you because of your sister!"

"Do you think he doesn't realize it?"

"If he continues to show no remorse and pushes his luck further, no one can guarantee they can stop him!"

"Dad, it's not as serious as you say, is it?" Zheng Shaoqing was indignant. Can't he even say a few words behind someone's back to vent his frustration?

There's no one else here, you can't just sell your own son, can you?

"Are you also going to say that those who achieve great things don't sweat the small stuff?" Zheng Hongye's expression grew increasingly serious. "Great things are often ruined by details!"

"If you're used to looking down on someone behind their back, that contempt will unconsciously show when you're facing them in person. Do you understand?"

"Human intuition is very irrational!"

"In all these years, have you ever seen me say a single bad word about your uncle behind his back?"

"What do you mean, no?" Zheng Shaoqing blurted out. "You just called him by his first name and called him ruthless..."

"No, no, Dad, you were just analyzing the big picture, it's different, it's different..."

He quickly shut his mouth, and seeing that his father's anger had not subsided, he changed the subject, "Dad, what should we do now?"

"What did Grandpa say?"

"He told me to go back to the ancestral home to receive family punishment!" Zheng Hongye's gaze sharpened. "At this time, don't ask what to do; first, understand the whole situation clearly!"

"Come back to our ancestral home with me now!"
