My Ares Son-in-Law

Tong Qian staggered and knocked over the water dispenser behind her. There was a loud "bang" and the bottled water fell heavily to the ground, splashing everywhere.

Mineral water mixed with broken glass quickly spread on the marble floor, forming a messy puddle, as if a witness to the conflict.

"You stinky bitch! How dare you push me?"

Tong Qian was like an enraged lioness, screaming in a shrill voice and pouncing towards Yun Yuyan with her teeth and claws bared.

Her nails, which were painted with royal blue nail polish, flickered eerily under the light as she scratched Yun Yuyan's face, as if she wanted to scratch her delicate face until it was broken.

At the critical moment, the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open.

A strong draught, carrying the fishy smell of heavy rain, rushed in with a roar.

The wind was like an invisible giant hand, rustling the scattered papers on the ground. The papers fluttered in the air like a group of panicked butterflies.

Everyone's breathing froze instantly, as if time had stopped at this moment.

Yun Jingtian just stood at the door, raindrops still dripping from the hem of his black windbreaker, gathering into small puddles on the ground.

His eyes were like ice cones, coldly sweeping across the mess on the ground, and finally fixed on the piece of toilet paper in Yun Yuyan's palm.

Tong Qian's hand was suspended in the air, her sharp nails only a few centimeters away from Yun Yuyan's cheek, as if they could cut the delicate skin at any time.

She suddenly retracted her hand as if she was suddenly cast under a spell of immobilization, and her body staggered uncontrollably back to the side of the chair.

Her carefully applied makeup was now blurred by the cold sweat, her eyeliner was smudged, and her lipstick was rubbed onto her cheeks. She looked extremely disheveled.

"Chairman... Chairman, we were just joking..."

She stammered, her voice full of fear and guilt, her eyes evasive, not daring to look Yun Jingtian in the eye.

Yun Jingtian didn't respond to her, as if she didn't exist at all.

He walked towards the main seat with steady and heavy steps in his shiny leather shoes.

Every step was like a drumbeat hitting everyone's heart, making their heartbeat quicken involuntarily.

His gray hair was wet by the rain and stuck to his face, making his jawline look as cold and hard as a knife, as if it was carved from the hardest stone.

When he slammed the financial newspaper in his hand on the table, the loud noise made everyone tremble.

The title "Yunwu Group's Stock Price Plummets" was clearly visible, and the ink words were blurred by water stains, like a spreading bloodstain, which was shocking.

"explain."

His voice was colder than the heavy rain outside the window, as if it came from an ice cellar, with an irresistible majesty.

The sound of swallowing could be heard one after another in the conference room, and everyone was so nervous that they dared not breathe.

Yun Yuyan quietly stuffed the piece of toilet paper with the prescription written on it into the inner pocket of her suit. Her fingers touched the beating of her heart, the place where Xiao Chen touched yesterday. She seemed to still feel his residual warmth.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, then took a step forward, her voice firm but with a hint of guilt: "Chairman, the marketing department did not predict the impact of competing products well enough, and this is my responsibility."

"Sales in the second quarter fell by 10%, so I applied for a three-month suspension of bonuses as a punishment."

Yun Jingtian slowly raised his eyes and his gaze fell on Yun Yuyan.

This daughter, whom he values ​​the most, has been following him in the company since she was young and has witnessed the ups and downs of the company together.

In my memory, she was always wearing plain suits. The simple yet elegant style was just like her calm and introverted personality.

Her black and shiny hair was always combed meticulously, as if every strand had been carefully groomed, revealing a sense of rigor and competence. However, at this moment, Yun Yuyan in front of him was a little different from before.

Her collar was slightly disheveled, as if she had just experienced a fierce struggle; her eyes were bloodshot, as if she had not had a good rest for a long time and was full of fatigue and tiredness.

But even so, she still straightened her back, her posture as tall and straight as a pine tree, or like a bamboo that was mercilessly bent by heavy rain but refused to break, stubborn and tenacious.

"What about the R&D department?"

Yun Jingtian's eyes were as sharp as torches, and he instantly turned to the crowd on the right.

His voice was deep and powerful, with an unquestionable majesty.

The R&D department, as one of the company's core departments, carries the hope for the company's future development, but its current performance has disappointed him greatly.

"It's been ten years, and you can't come up with something better than 'Anti-Cancer Oral Liquid'?"

His tone was full of questioning and dissatisfaction, and his eyes revealed deep disappointment in the R&D department.

Silence, like a huge stone, weighed heavily on the conference room.

Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to make a sound, as if any sound would break the suffocating silence.

Professor Wang from Peking University of Health Science was sitting in the crowd. He subconsciously pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose. The reflection of the light from the lenses hid the embarrassment that flashed across his eyes.

He cleared his throat and said in a trembling voice: "Chairman, the research and development bottleneck of the anti-cancer formula is..."

"Because you only know how to read ancient books!"

Yun Jingtian suddenly slammed the table and stood up with a bang.

The huge noise made everyone tremble.

The hem of his windbreaker swept across the table as he stood up, sweeping several stacks of documents to the ground with a "rustle". The papers scattered in the air like drifting snowflakes.

His face was filled with anger, and he shouted loudly: "Is the laboratory I spent 30 million to build just for show?"

"Stem cell technology is being used in other countries, and you are still studying the anti-cancer secret recipe in the Compendium of Materia Medica!"

"Don't you know how to keep up with the times?"

"But the chairman,"

Old Chen stood up tremblingly. He was wearing a white coat that had become a little pale from washing, and a half-copy of "Qian Jin Fang" was visible from his pocket.

His voice was weak, but with a hint of persistence, "Anti-cancer secret recipes in ancient books are already scarce. In the Han bamboo slips unearthed in recent years, not even a fragment of 'Xiangjisan' was found..."

"We are also trying our best to explore the wisdom in ancient books, hoping to find a breakthrough from them."

"enough!"

Yun Jingtian roughly pulled off his tie and threw it on the table.

The tie drew an arc in the air, and the mother-of-pearl tie clip fell to the ground with a "click", flashing a faint light under the light, reflecting his red eyes.

Only he himself knows how much effort he has poured into this company, which is like his child.

From the difficulties in the early days of the business to the current scale, every step is condensed with his sweat and tears.

He didn't want to give up just like that, and didn't want to see the company decline due to lagging research and development. (End of this chapter)
