Jin’an Garden.
Cheng Ye had just returned home when his gaze fell upon the piano in the house. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that this piano wasn’t befitting his daughter, Qingyin!
He quickly took out his phone and dialed a number. “Immediately customize a diamond-encrusted piano for my daughter. Everything, other than the piano keys, must be adorned with diamonds, and the sound quality must be top-notch! Make sure it’s delivered before evening!”
“That’s right. Our piano is too ordinary. It’s indeed not suitable for Yuanyuan’s status.” Qiao Xinhui beamed with joy. “Men, hurry and buy groceries. Tonight, we must celebrate for Yuanyuan!”
On the side, Auntie Du smiled curiously and asked, “What are we celebrating? Madam, is there another happy occasion at home?”
“Yuanyuan is a renowned pianist! As parents, we only found out today…”
As soon as Qiao Xinhui finished speaking, a few servants said respectfully, “Miss Yuanyuan, you’re amazing. You’re already a master at such a young age?” Wouldn’t her piano skills surpass Lady Yuqi’s?
Lady Yuqi didn’t look too pleased…
“Yuanyuan is too modest.” Qiao Xinhui looked at Fang Yuan with love and pride. “Feeling tired? Go back to your room and rest first. Mom will call you when dinner is ready.”
“Okay.” Fang Yuan turned around and went upstairs. As soon as she entered her room, she received a call from Big Bai.
“Boss, would it be convenient for you to come to Zhongshan Forest Village? Project B33’s research has failed again.”
Zhongshan Forest Village was Fang Yuan’s large villa atop Zhongshan Mountain, one of her base camps where numerous laboratories were established. These laboratories were equipped with cutting-edge instruments and equipment from both domestic and international sources. Many of Fang Yuan’s medical experiments had been conducted there.
B33 was a project focused on studying Alzheimer’s disease. Currently, the disease could only be managed with medication and had no cure. Developing a drug to treat it seemed impossible.
“Boss, this project is proving to be too costly, and there’s no sign of progress. Spending more money on it doesn’t seem wise. Should we consider changing the project?”
“I’ll go over and take a look later,” Fang Yuan responded calmly.
“That’s great. While you’re here, could you also consider producing the heart-strengthening pill? There’s been a rising demand for it on the black market.”
“Okay.” Fang Yuan ended the call, carrying the medicine Tang Nan had provided, and headed downstairs. She bid farewell to Qiao Xinhui and left.
Zhongshan Forest Village, nestled in the woods, occupied a vast area. Over ten guards stood at the entrance, expressing excitement as they saw Fang Yuan. “Boss, you’re finally here!”
Upon entering the villa, Fang Yuan found Big Bai awaiting her.
“Boss, it’s been a while. You’re still as impressive!”
Fang Yuan exuded a cool aura, bearing the demeanor of a person of authority. “It has indeed been a while. Are you asking for trouble again?”
Big Bai shrank his neck in fear. “I wouldn’t dare!”
Several experts and professors from Laboratory No. 1 respectfully greeted Fang Yuan upon her arrival.
Fang Yuan nodded, changed her attire, and entered the laboratory. “Which step went wrong?”
“The beefsteak plant extraction has been unsuccessful,” one professor explained helplessly. “We’ve been attempting for over ten days, but the ingredients always get destroyed during the extraction process.”
Another expert added, “There’s also Chinese medicine, such as devil’s bush. Although the extraction was successful, we need to synthesize it to enhance acetylcholine levels in the brain, but we haven’t succeeded in the synthesis process.”
Fang Yuan examined recent research failure data, pondered for a moment, and stated, “I’ll give it a try.”
A group of professors and experts surrounded Fang Yuan, observing as she subjected the beefsteak plant to high temperatures and commenced the extraction process.
Shortly afterward, Fang Yuan’s phone vibrated persistently. Focused on her task, she initially ignored the calls, but the relentless ringing compelled her to remove her gloves and step outside. Annoyed, she answered the unknown number, “Who is this?”
“Yuanyuan, it’s your father. Please don’t hang up. 1’11 only take two minutes of your time!”
Fang Liguo, fearing an abrupt disconnection, hastily delivered the main point in one breath, “Jiayi plagiarized your work. She was unquestionably in the wrong. We’ve reprimanded her at home! We acknowledge our responsibility. We failed to discipline her properly, leading to this serious mistake! How about this? Do you have time now? We’ll bring her to apologize to you in person!”
“No need,” Fang Yuan began to hang up.
Fang Liguo pleaded desperately, “Please don’t hang up! I beg you, Yuanyuan, give Jiayi a chance to admit her mistake and grant us an opportunity, okay? We’ve made many mistakes in the past, hurting you deeply. For Grandma’s sake…”
“You have no right to mention Grandma!” Fang Yuan’s voice turned icy.
“Why? Feeling the pain of a 60 million yuan compensation? Regretting it now? Can’t bear the cost and want to play the emotional card with Grandma?”
