Power and wealth bring fragrance

For a moment, the air became incredibly still.

Wei Yuan looked calmly at Yang Yan, who was completely pale, without any emotional fluctuation.

Do not live by committing sins.

If he hadn't repeatedly tried to show off, suppress Wei Yuan, and even acted as if he were doing Mu Wanning a favor, he wouldn't have ended up like this.

Deserve it.

Wei Yuan didn't look at him again, but instead smiled and exchanged pleasantries with Shen Qingyan.

Shen Qingyan chatted and laughed with Wei Yuan, and even invited him to have dinner together.

Wei Yuan smiled and waved his hand, gesturing to Mu Wanning, who hadn't spoken yet.

"No need, my master's wife and I have other things to do. Let's reschedule for another day."

Shen Qingyan looked at the serene and elegant Mu Wanning, who also smiled faintly and nodded in greeting.

Shen Qingyan quickly returned the greeting, her curiosity growing stronger.

Such a young master's wife?

Rather than calling her a teacher's wife, wouldn't it be more accurate to call her an older sister?

Just then, Yang Yan finally came to his senses. Looking at Wei Yuan and Shen Qingyan, who were chatting and laughing happily, his anger and fear boiled like magma, almost drying up his reason!

No, he absolutely cannot admit defeat like this!

He had been in the medicinal herb business for over a decade, and it took him a lot of effort to save enough capital to develop a new drug.

Despite its exaggerated advertising claims, this health product, which actually only has some nutritional benefits, is a scam designed to exploit middle-aged and elderly people.

However, if handled properly, one can absolutely make a fortune and successfully transform from a struggling herbal medicine merchant into a glamorous pharmaceutical company CEO!

This was his dream, which he had cherished for over a decade. How could he fall here?

Moreover, although that health supplement didn't cost much, it was enough to deplete his meager savings.

If he fails to obtain approval and successfully go public, not only will his investment be completely wasted, but his existing business will also collapse.

Everything you've worked so hard for over a decade will crumble and vanish in an instant!

He can't accept it!

Yang Yan gritted his teeth, a crazy thought suddenly flashing through his mind.

Since we've already offended Shen Qingyan because of Wei Yuan, we might as well offend her even more severely. Maybe we'll have a chance to turn things around and survive!

Once this thought came to mind, Yang Yan didn't hesitate any longer and roared out loud!

"Shen Qingyan, you're using this to settle personal scores!"

Yang Yan shouted this sentence with almost all his might, instantly drowning out the noise in the restaurant and attracting everyone's attention.

Wei Yuan and Shen Qingyan, who were chatting and laughing, turned around at the same time.

Shen Qingyan looked completely bewildered, while Wei Yuan's pupils contracted as he instantly saw through Yang Yan's sinister intentions.

That bastard is trying to take a risk!

He angrily berated Shen Qingyan in front of so many people, wanting to use his position to settle personal scores and publicly smear Shen Qingyan, making everyone think that he was an innocent victim who was deliberately targeted and had no way to express his suffering.

The diners around him were ordinary passersby, who were most easily swayed by his words and felt sympathy for him.

If they are unknowingly manipulated by Yang Yan and speak up in support of him, causing a public opinion storm, it will surely alarm the Medical and Health Committee.

In order to quell public anger, the Medical and Health Committee will definitely send people to investigate.

If Yang Yan were to add fuel to the fire and say a few more distorted things, the Medical and Health Committee would definitely punish Shen Qingyan in order to quell the matter.

In order to appease Yang Yan, they might arrange for his new drug, which Shen Qingyan had already rejected, to pass the review and be successfully launched on the market.

In this way, Yang Yan's game, which was originally in a dead end, was instantly brought to life!

The only one who paid the price was Shen Qingyan.

This scoundrel has such a vicious mind!

Not only Wei Yuan, but Shen Qingyan also reacted immediately after a moment's delay. A trace of uncontrollable panic and anger flashed across her pretty face, and her fine silver teeth gritted together.

Yang Yan felt increasingly pleased as he looked at Wei Yuan's cold face and Shen Qingyan's sudden panic.

Now you know fear?

late!

Yang Yan's face was contorted with excitement, and he opened his mouth wide, ready to roar again.

"you……"

However, he only managed to utter one word before abruptly stopping, his face suddenly turning red, as if he had drunk too much, and he couldn't utter another word.

Mu Wanning was already standing beside him at some point, her right hand gently resting on Yang Yan's back, as if she were supporting him.

Facing the gazes coming from all directions, Mu Wanning nodded apologetically to everyone.

"I'm sorry, he's drunk and talking nonsense. I'm really sorry for disturbing everyone."

"Waiter, please bring a bottle of wine to each table and put it on my tab."

Upon hearing this, the diners who had been frowning or looking at him with surprise suddenly understood.

Oh, you drank too much. No wonder.

What can't a drunkard say when he's had too much to drink?

Forget about settling personal scores; they've heard drunks say things a hundred times more shocking and frightening than that, so there's nothing surprising about it.

Moreover, with such a beautiful and charming woman as Mu Wanning personally apologizing and even giving them a bottle of wine, what else could they possibly say?

Of course, I forgave Yang Yan and gladly accepted the forgiveness.

"Beautiful and elegant!"

"Thank you for the drink, beautiful lady!"

"Brother, if you don't say a few more words, we'll get the pretty girl to bring us two more bottles!"

Those who were looking for amusement immediately started making a fuss, and the restaurant was filled with laughter, easily erasing the slightly tense atmosphere caused by Yang Yan's earlier comment about settling personal scores.

The waiter immediately followed Mu Wanning's instructions and served a bottle of red wine to each table.

Even the cheapest wine in the store easily cost tens of thousands of dollars.

However, spending only this much money resolved the potential trouble Shen Qingyan might have faced, which was well worth it!

Shen Qingyan was also stunned by this sudden turn of events, but Wei Yuan already understood what Mu Wanning had done and secretly gave her a thumbs up in his mind.

As expected of an old hand, he's incredibly shrewd in his dealings!

He directly attacked, using martial arts to seal Yang Yan's acupoints, rendering him speechless and creating the illusion that he was drunk.

She then used a small, insignificant reward to win over the diners, making them believe the lies Mu Wanning had casually fabricated.

By employing a two-pronged approach, a potential crisis for Shen Qingyan was easily averted.

Steady, accurate, and ruthless—impressive!

Wei Yuan inwardly praised Mu Wanning and immediately began to cooperate with her.

"Minister Shen, General Manager Yang has already had too much to drink, so we won't bother you any longer."

"Let's reschedule for another day."

After saying a few words to Shen Qingyan, Wei Yuan also stepped forward and, together with Mu Wanning, helped Yang Yan, who was completely restrained by martial arts and unable to move, walk towards the restaurant entrance.

As they walked, Wei Yuan casually tossed his card to the waiter to pay the bill.

Shen Qingyan stared blankly at their retreating figures, still not understanding how Wei Yuan and Mu Wanning had performed this magic trick.

Wasn't Yang Yan about to throw dirty water at her?

Why did you suddenly become so drunk that you can't speak?

This is too much of a coincidence!

At this moment, Wei Yuan and Shen Qingyan had already helped Yang Yan to the restaurant entrance. Wei Yuan took back the black card returned by the waiter, and with one arm supporting Yang Yan, he was about to help him into the car.

Suddenly, a sentence reached Wei Yuan's ears, causing a cold glint to flash in his eyes.
