The accompanying medics rushed in like arrows released from a bow, their emergency equipment flying, and quickly began a full examination of Major General Wang.

The series of actions—pressing the pulse on the side of the neck with fingertips, testing the pupillary light reflex, and quickly drawing blood samples for initial screening—were performed smoothly and efficiently.

A moment later, however, the urgency on his face was replaced by extreme solemnity. His hand gripping the testing equipment trembled slightly, and as he leaned over to report to Qin Zhenghong, his voice was visibly strained: "Lieutenant General Qin, it's an acute poisoning attack! The toxin's composition is strange and unknown, but preliminary assessment indicates it's a specially made neurotoxin with extremely high penetrability. Our emergency antidote is completely ineffective and cannot suppress the spread of the toxin at all!"

Major General Wang's breathing grew weaker and weaker, his chest heaving like a candle flickering in the wind. His originally pale face gradually turned ashen, his lips turned purplish-black, and his limbs twitched slightly uncontrollably. He soon fell into a semi-comatose state, with only his furrowed brows revealing the excruciating pain within him.

Qin Zhenghong stood by, anxious and worried. Cold sweat trickled down his temples, soaking the collar of his military uniform—Major General Wang was the chief person in charge of the institute's core technology transformation project.

He not only has a thorough understanding of the overall project, but also possesses a number of key technical parameters. If he makes even the slightest mistake, the project will come to a complete standstill, and the national military industry will lose an irreplaceable coordinating talent.

The technical experts present gathered around, repeatedly analyzing the test report, but they were all helpless and could only watch as Major General Wang's condition continued to deteriorate. The air was filled with despair and anxiety.

"General Qin, I can give it a try."

Jiang Wenxi's voice suddenly rang out, clear and steady, like a glimmer of light breaking through ice, instantly shattering the deathly silence in the room.

She walked slowly out from the back of the crowd, her expression calm and composed. A well-tailored black suit accentuated her tall and straight figure. Her gaze fell on Major General Wang's ashen face, and her tone was calm yet exuded an undeniable confidence.

"I carry a universal antidote with me, which can neutralize most artificially created toxins. It might be able to stabilize his condition."

"A universal antidote?" Qin Zhenghong suddenly turned to look at her, his eyes swirling with struggle and hope.

He had previously been quite interested in General Jiang, who was generous and had deep connections, but this matter concerned the major general's life and could not be taken lightly. If he failed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

But time was of the essence. With each step the toxin spread, Major General Wang's chances of survival weakened. The medics had shaken their heads several times, indicating that there was nothing they could do and there was no other option.

Qin Zhenghong gritted his teeth, clenched his fists until his knuckles turned white, and said in a deep voice, "Alright! President Jiang, I'll trust you this once! If we can save Major General Wang, I, Qin Zhenghong, will owe you a favor, and I will repay you handsomely in the future!"

Jiang Wenxi said no more, and took out a crystal-clear blue potion from her custom-made handbag. The potion shimmered under the light, and the bottle was engraved with fine patterns, giving it a mysterious feel.

She deftly removed the bottle stopper with her fingertips, pressed down on Major General Wang's arm with her other hand, located the vein, and with precise and steady movements, slowly injected the medicine. The whole process was smooth and without the slightest hesitation, which made everyone present hold their breath and not dare to breathe loudly.

In less than a minute, Major General Wang, who had been convulsing, gradually calmed down. His rapid and weak breathing slowly became steady and long. His ashen complexion faded at a visible speed, the purplish discoloration between his lips disappeared, and some color returned to his cheeks.

Three minutes later, he slowly opened his heavy eyelids. His eyes were still weak, but they were clear. He looked at Qin Zhenghong and said in a hoarse but clear voice, "Lieutenant General Qin... I'm alright..."

"Great! Major General Wang, you're finally awake!" Qin Zhenghong's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down. His voice trembled slightly as he quickly gestured for the medics to come forward and check on him again.

After confirming that the toxins in Major General Wang's body had been suppressed and his vital signs were stable, he turned to look at Jiang Wenxi, his eyes filled with gratitude and admiration. He solemnly raised his hand and gave her a standard military salute: "President Jiang, I can't thank you enough! By saving Major General Wang, you saved our research institute's technology transfer project and the entire military-industrial support plan!"

The military personnel present also looked at Jiang Wenxi with awe. Although they knew she was generous and had demonstrated her strength by investing 1 billion yuan indefinitely, they now realized that this President Jiang's foundation was far beyond that of ordinary companies and was unfathomable.

Those business leaders who had previously doubted Jiang Wenxi's abilities and wanted to seize the opportunity to compete for cooperation opportunities were now filled with dejection—they had no chance of competing with such an opponent, whether in terms of funds, connections, or such special background.

The medical team arrived later and carefully escorted Major General Wang to the rest room to recuperate.

Qin Zhenghong sat back down in the main seat, his expression extremely solemn. His gaze swept over everyone present, and he said in a deep voice, "After our urgent discussion, we have finally decided to reach an exclusive cooperation agreement with President Jiang Wenxi! We will have a specialist draft the relevant agreement overnight, and the formal signing can take place first thing tomorrow morning. All subsequent technology transfer and related support will be handled entirely by President Jiang's team!"

Seeing this, the other business leaders knew there was no hope of a turnaround and could only get up and leave dejectedly.

Before leaving, many people couldn't help but look back at Jiang Wenxi, their eyes filled with complex and unreadable emotions—a mixture of resentment at missing a good opportunity, awe of an absolute powerhouse, and a hint of unspeakable fear.

Jiang Wenxi nodded slightly and responded to Qin Zhenghong in a calm tone: "Thank you for your trust, Lieutenant General Qin. I will fully cooperate with the subsequent signing matters, allocate the best team, ensure the smooth progress of the cooperation, and live up to everyone's expectations."

After the meeting, Qin Zhenghong personally escorted Jiang Wenxi to the entrance of the research institute, his attitude much more respectful than before: "President Jiang, I will personally visit you with Major General Wang another day to express my gratitude. In addition, regarding the cell regeneration injection you mentioned, our military hopes to further discuss cooperation. If this drug can be used for military medical support, it will be of great significance to our country's military industry and to the soldiers on the front lines."

"With pleasure," Jiang Wenxi replied calmly, her tone devoid of much emotion. She then turned and got into the car, which slowly drove away from the research institute.

Inside the car, Jiang Wenxi leaned back in the soft seat, gently closed her eyes, a faint smile playing on her lips, and murmured softly, "Now, everything is finally resolved."

After days of running around and scheming, she had planned to take advantage of this rare moment of peace and quiet to rest for a couple of days.

But this peace and quiet lasted only two days before Jiang Yan rushed over, knocking on the door with a grave expression and reporting: "Miss, something has happened to the Aurora Studio you invested in."
