Peerless Medical Emperor

“Looking for something?” Chen Qingdi frowned. “Who in the world are they? Why are they causing trouble for our Group?”

Chen Yuan shook his head and said,

“It’s not clear yet. I’ve already had my subordinates look into it, but Chairman, I think this may be more complicated than we imagined. The other party seems to know a lot about our situation, and their methods are very cunning.”

Chen Qingdi was silent for a moment, then spoke.

“Don’t panic yet. Since they didn’t find what they were looking for, it means our security is still effective. The top priority now is to find out their true objective.”

“I’ve already arranged for people to investigate,” Chen Yuan said. “Also, I’ve strengthened the Group’s security to ensure something like this doesn’t happen again.”

Chen Qingdi nodded, satisfied. ‘This is probably just the beginning,’ he knew. He had to uncover the truth as soon as possible to ensure the Mingyue Group’s stability.

The next morning, Chen Qingdi had just arrived at his office when he received a mysterious phone call.

The person on the other end of the line claimed to be hired by someone and wanted to make a deal with Chen Qingdi.

He stated that he knew all of Mingyue Group’s secrets and that his mission was to pass these secrets on to his client.

Chen Qingdi was startled, immediately understanding this was the work of the people who broke into the Group yesterday. He calmly asked, “What do you want?”

The other party didn’t answer directly. Instead, just before hanging up, he said to Chen Qingdi,

“You’re going to run into some trouble for a while, but it’ll just be the local investigation team coming after you. As long as you can handle them, it’ll be fine. But I hope there’s still a possibility for us to cooperate.”

Chen Qingdi sat in the large executive chair in his office, his sharp gaze fixed on Chen Yuan. He could tell that Chen Yuan was extremely flustered and seemed to have something he needed to say.

“Chen Yuan, come have a seat. Tell me what’s going on,” Chen Qingdi asked.

Chen Yuan nodded, sat down, and began to explain what had happened.

“While you were away on Medical God Island, an investigation team came to our Group,” Chen Yuan said.

“An investigation team? What investigation team?” Chen Qingdi asked, confused.

“The one sent from the higher-ups. They raised a lot of questions about us,” Chen Yuan replied.

“Questions? What did they question us about?” Chen Qingdi pressed on.

“They said there were problems with our Group’s financial statements and that our business practices were suspected of being illegal,” Chen Yuan said.

“How is that possible?” Chen Qingdi was exasperated. “Our financial statements have always been clear, and our business practices have always been legal and compliant.”

“Yes, I also think they’re deliberately looking for trouble,” Chen Yuan said.

“This is ridiculous. We’ve always stayed out of the investigation team’s way, and they’ve stayed out of ours. Why would they start picking a fight with us now?” Chen Qingdi was baffled.

“I don’t know either, but they seem to be very familiar with our business, even down to some of the smallest details,” Chen Yuan said.

“This sounds highly suspicious. We have to find out what’s going on,” Chen Qingdi said.

Chen Qingdi sat in the executive chair in his office, his eyes sharp and his presence imposing.

His fingers tapped on his desk, making a crisp sound. He listened to Qian Laoliu’s report with a deep frown, clearly displeased with the investigation team’s actions.

“Boss, shouldn’t we take some action?” Qian Laoliu stood before Chen Qingdi, his tone firm.

“Take action?” Chen Qingdi sneered. “What kind of action? You think they’re afraid of us?”

“Not afraid of us?” Qian Laoliu was taken aback for a moment. “But…”

“But what?” Chen Qingdi cut him off.

“They’re just small-timers. They can’t even begin to imagine the kind of influence the Mingyue Group has here. If they want to look for trouble, let them. We’re not afraid.”

“Boss, I understand what you mean.” Qian Laoliu was silent for a moment. “But shouldn’t we take some measures to prevent them from causing trouble again?”

“Take measures?” Chen Qingdi sneered again. “You think our measures will stop them? No. It will only make them more frantic. So, the best way is to let them know we’re not to be trifled with.”

“Boss, I get it,” Qian Laoliu nodded. “But maybe we could try a softer approach? Like sending some gifts, or talking to them?”

“A softer approach?” Chen Qingdi considered it for a moment. “That’s an option, but it’s not the main goal. The main goal is to show them we’re not to be trifled with. If they come looking for trouble again, your security team isn’t just for show. Just take care of them.”

“Yes, Boss.” Qian Laoliu nodded. “I understand.”

“Good.” Chen Qingdi nodded in satisfaction. “Go prepare a gift. I’ll go to the investigation team tomorrow and have a nice, long chat with them.”

“Yes, Boss.” Qian Laoliu respectfully exited the office.

「Early the next day」

The chairman of the Mingyue Group, Chen Qingdi, was preparing to leave to visit the investigation team when his phone rang. He answered, and the person on the other end immediately introduced himself.

“This is Liu Yueqiang, the newly transferred captain of the Forest City investigation team.”

Chen Qingdi said, “Captain Liu, what exactly are you trying to do? I have no quarrel with you, past or present. The Mingyue Group is a major taxpayer in Forest City. Don’t you get any funny ideas about causing trouble for us. You’re picking a fight with the wrong person.”

Unexpectedly, Captain Liu wasn’t angry. He just chuckled and said, “How about this, President Chen? Let’s find a teahouse and have a nice chat. My treat.”

But Chen Qingdi replied, “Tea? Real men drink liquor. Tonight, VIP room at the Rose Fragrance Grand Hotel. You and I will have a proper drink.”

Liu Yueqiang laughed heartily. “That sounds great! If President Chen is treating, I’ll definitely be there.”

「…」

When Chen Qingdi drove to the investigation team’s office, Liu Yueqiang was in his office drinking tea. Seeing Chen Qingdi arrive, Liu Yueqiang quickly rose to greet him. “President Chen, you’re here! Please, have a seat.”

Chen Qingdi got straight to the point. “Captain Liu, why did you ask me to come here?”

Liu Yueqiang said with a smile, “Oh, it’s nothing really. I just wanted to invite you for some tea and a meal.”

“The tea and food are secondary. The main thing is, I want to be friends with President Chen.”

“To be honest, I’m the newly appointed captain of this investigation team. I’m new to this place, don’t know my way around, and don’t have any friends here.”

“So, I was hoping to befriend President Chen. It’s always good to have someone to look out for you in the future.”

When Chen Qingdi heard this, he immediately relaxed.

Although he could be a bit brash, he was also a man who valued loyalty.
