Romantic Medical Immortal

Chapter 153: Kong Family of Zhonghai

"What did you say??"

Hearing these words, Xiao Yuqi was stunned, her gaze at Yang Chen filled with disbelief.

"I said, your mom was outside secretly watching our passionate moment just now, and she watched for a long time."

Yang Chen repeated what he had just said with a smile.

"Impossible!"

After understanding the words, Xiao Yuqi directly pushed Yang Chen away, her face pale, staring at him intently: "Are you trying to fool me?"

"Haha, just joking, look how scared you got!"

Yang Chen blinked and immediately changed his story.

He was only teasing Xiao Yuqi for fun just now; he couldn’t actually say it seriously.

In fact, just now Xu Yuexuan not only peeked for a long time but also fantasized about him as an object of desire, all of which he observed clearly.

If Xiao Yuqi found out about this, it would undoubtedly cause a conflict between mother and daughter.

Even if it didn’t cause a conflict, there would certainly be some distance.

"Do you find this funny?"

Xiao Yuqi was immediately furious, her small fists pounding Yang Chen’s chest like raindrops, complaining constantly: "You nearly scared me to death just now. If my mom saw us doing such a thing, I’d be too embarrassed to face anyone."

"What’s the big deal!"

Yang Chen appeared indifferent, saying: "Romantic love is very normal. You’re a normal woman, so you naturally have needs. Besides, your mom must have done such things too, right? At her age, what scenes hasn’t she witnessed? Even if she saw our passion, it’s nothing!"

"Damn it, damn it, stop talking!"

Xiao Yuqi was utterly embarrassed, her face red as if it could bleed.

"Okay, okay, I won’t say anymore."

Yang Chen pulled Xiao Yuqi into his embrace and said, "Now that I’ve helped you scratch that itch, let’s talk about business."

Xiao Yuqi nodded and asked, "What’s the business?"

"I’m here to ask for some medicinal herbs..."

Yang Chen took a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Xiao Yuqi, covered with the herbs he needed.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuqi immediately took the paper, looked it over carefully, and said, "The herbs you need this time are quite common. Okay, I’ll rest for a bit, then I’ll get the herbs for you."

The two leaned on the sofa resting, looking very content.

While resting, Yang Chen didn’t idle; he kept playing with Xiao Yuqi’s soft chest and asked, "By the way, any news on the Frost Flower and Fairy Phoenix Grass?"

"There’s news!"

Xiao Yuqi nodded lightly.

"Really?" Hearing this, Yang Chen immediately sat upright, his eyes filled with joy: "Since there’s news, why didn’t you tell me?"

"Don’t get so worked up!"

Xiao Yuqi rolled her eyes at Yang Chen and said, "Although there is news, it’s just a rumor. I don’t know if it’s accurate. If it’s fake news, wouldn’t you be disappointed?"

"I see."

Yang Chen nodded gently and then asked, "Then what’s the rumor? Tell me."

"These two herbs aren’t in our Peach Blossom County, but in Zhonghai City. According to my friend, there’s a Fairy Phoenix Grass at the Kong Family in Zhonghai, but he’s not sure. He’s already gone to investigate."

"Rest assured, once the investigation is clear, I’ll definitely inform you immediately!"

Xiao Yuqi gave Yang Chen a reassuring look.

"Zhonghai Kong Family!"

Yang Chen furrowed his brow slightly. At the mention of ’Kong,’ the figure of Kong Lingwen immediately appeared in his mind.

Is this mysterious ’woman’ related to the Kong Family in Zhonghai?

Thinking of this, he immediately asked, "By the way, how strong is the Kong Family in Zhonghai?"

"Very strong!!"

Xiao Yuqi almost didn’t hesitate, saying immediately: "The Kong Family is one of the three major families in Zhonghai. Although they’re ranked last, they have a very strong foundation. A few years ago, they even acquired a particularly powerful skincare company in our Peach Blossom County... and renamed it to Yanzhitang!!"

"A particularly powerful skincare company?"

Hearing this, Yang Chen’s heart tightened. He clearly remembered that before his father’s disappearance, he ran a skincare company. He immediately asked, "Do you know the name of the skincare company’s owner after it was acquired?"

"I don’t know the full name, but I think it was surnamed Yang!"

Xiao Yuqi pondered for a moment while stroking her chin, then spoke.

Yang Chen felt a ’thump’ in his heart, his brow knitting slightly.

Since the Kong Family acquired his father’s skincare company, do they know why his father disappeared?

Most likely, they do!

It seems he’ll need to have some contact with the Kong Family to see if he can find out the reason for his father’s disappearance.

He wonders if Kong Lingwen has any relation to the Kong Family of Zhonghai!

If there is a connection, he should definitely try to make contact with Kong Lingwen.

"Yang Chen, what’s wrong? You look quite odd."

Xiao Yuqi tugged at Yang Chen’s arm, curious.

"It’s nothing!"

When it came to matters related to his father, Yang Chen didn’t want to say too much. He asked again: "So, do you know how strong that skincare company was at the time?"

"It was quite impressive, a dark horse in our Peach Blossom County business circle. Its products were quite miraculous, even comparable to Beauty Cream, but they were very expensive, like tens of thousands per bottle. I even bought a bottle back then, but it didn’t work much for me! I didn’t continue to learn more about it."

"But, for some reason, the company got smashed once, and not long after that, it declared bankruptcy and was acquired by the Kong Family!"

"That’s all I know; I don’t know anything else, especially since this skincare company was around for such a short time!"

Seeing Yang Chen’s keen interest in this skincare company, Xiao Yuqi shared everything she knew, and then she asked: "You seem quite intrigued by this beauty company!"

"It’s nothing, just love gossip, that’s all!"

Yang Chen chuckled, saying, "After all, we’re also selling beauty products now, and it’s good to gather some information!"

"Right, how many Beauty Creams have you produced in the past couple of days?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuqi frowned immediately.

"I haven’t started yet."

Yang Chen awkwardly grinned, and upon seeing Xiao Yuqi’s resentful face, he quickly said: "I’m currently setting up my workshop and purchasing equipment; I’ve already rented the place, and we’ll start soon, so don’t worry!"

"You need to hurry. The ten million I gave you was diverted from the medical clinic’s funds, so we have to sell the Beauty Creams quickly to make up for it."

Xiao Yuqi pouted and said.

"Don’t worry, I will."

Yang Chen patted Xiao Yuqi’s perky bottom and said: "We’ve rested enough, go get the herbs for me now."

"Okay." Xiao Yuqi nodded gently, quickly got dressed, and left the office.

After reaching the pharmacy, she handed the herb list to the staff and sat aside, waiting.

Finding herself a bit bored, she took out her phone to play around.

Opening WeChat, she saw a message from her mother sent two hours ago.

Boom!!

Having read the message, her facial expression changed dramatically, her eyes widening to be as big and round as possible...
