Chapter 1729: Chapter 1725: Disturbance in the Capital City!
In the car, Zhao ijing spoke about three important events that had occurred in Capital City.
The first event was that Feifan Pharmaceuticals’ globalization faced obstacles, with many branches around the world suffering attacks from mysterious forces.
The Feifan Pharmaceutical branches in Europe and Arica were even destroyed overnight by terrorist forces, thankfully with not too many casualties.
Even though the Huaxia governnt dispatched the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, there are still no results so far.
Due to this incident, Feifan Pharmaceuticals’ CEO Ye Chuchen had no choice but to scale back the globalization strategy, and currently, their dicine can only be purchased in Asia.
Still, Feifan Pharmaceuticals remains the world’s largest pharmaceutical brand, with the largest cash flow. Economists say that if Feifan Pharmaceuticals were to collapse, it would certainly trigger a financial crisis affecting countless industries.
anwhile, in this year’s Fortune Global 500, Feifan Pharmaceuticals is ranked second.
The first place is held by a traditional international family consortium wealthy enough to rival nations.
Although ranked second in the world, in Asia, Feifan Pharmaceuticals’ influence can be described as colossal.
It’s the leader of Asia’s top 500, and by a wide margin. The market value of the second-place company among Asia’s top 500 enterprises is just a fraction of Feifan Pharmaceuticals’.
This illustrates the formidable nature of Feifan Pharmaceuticals.
The second event is that strange occurrences have been happening frequently in Capital City recently, including a once-in-a-century phenonon of simultaneous thunderstorms.
teorologists say this is a normal occurrence and have advised everyone not to panic.
At that ti, all of Capital City’s airports and high-speed trains were forced to issue ergency notices.
All routes were delayed.
As rain began to fall outside the window, Ren Feifan looked at the rain-drenched Capital City with a cold smile at the corner of his mouth:
“Simultaneous thunderstorms? It seems soone in Capital City is undergoing a tribulation, and the disturbance it’s causing in heaven and earth is strong, definitely not an ordinary realm!”
As for the third event, it is that in recent tis in Capital City, people have been mysteriously disappearing. From the night of the 3rd of this month to today, the 25th, more than twenty days have passed, and 187 people have vanished.
What’s eerie, these missing individuals are either children under six years of age or are related to scientific research personnel.
Fantastically baffling.
These three events plunged Ren Feifan into deep thought on the car ride.
Sothing significant must have happened in Capital City during the ti he was away, and not just any significant event!
It seems after this al, he must pay a visit to Feifan Pharmaceuticals to ask Ye Chuchen what happened here, and if Ye Chuchen doesn’t know, he must inquire with the Holy Gate of Capital City.
The secular Holy Gate still has so mbers stationed, with decent strength; they must have noticed sothing about these events.
If all else fails, Ren Feifan plans to contact Wang Zhen of the National Security Bureau.
Zhao ijing sees Ren Feifan remaining silent and thinks she might have said sothing to upset him, so naturally, she dares not say much more.
The atmosphere in the car is sowhat eerie.
Soon, they arrive at a restaurant called MODOD in Sanlitun.
It’s a fusion of Western and Eastern cuisine, quite popular among various wealthy second-generation patrons. The chefs employed are among the top in Capital City, even comparable to top French chefs.
The price for each al is also not low.
“Ren Feifan, it’s this one. The dishes inside taste quite good. Oh, by the way, I don’t know yet whether you prefer Western or Chinese cuisine?” Zhao ijing inquired.
Ren Feifan glanced at the restaurant and knew it wasn’t cheap, and thus his opinion of Zhao ijing rose a bit.
It seems her family background is quite good, but why did she beco a flight attendant?
He didn’t think too much about it and replied directly: “Then let’s have Chinese cuisine.”
Zhao ijing nodded and headed straight for the waitress at the entrance. As she walked, her skirt fluttered, drawing countless furtive glances from n.
With legs and a figure so tempting, there were few n who could restrain themselves.
Ren Feifan watched as her skirt lifted, and even though he knew she wore leggings underneath, he still channeled his True Qi to press the skirt down.
The n’s faces fell in disappointnt.
Zhao ijing apparently didn’t expect the MODOD Western-Chinese restaurant to be so crowded today. She skillfully pulled out a mbership card and said to a waitress, “Hello, I haven’t made a reservation, but I am a gold mber of your restaurant. I wonder if there are any open seats upstairs?”
The waitress looked apologetically at Zhao ijing and said, “Miss, I’m very sorry, but our restaurant has been fully booked by a gentleman today.”
“Fully booked?” Zhao ijing was slightly stunned and then peeked inside.
Behind this restaurant lie countless legends and a substantial background. So say it has ties to Capital City’s biggest underworld force; others say it’s connected to Feifan Pharmaceuticals.
There’s a variety of rumors.
With that one peek, Zhao ijing saw several muscular n in suits blocking her view, their eyes looking at Zhao ijing as if they were prey.
Frightened, Zhao ijing quickly retreated.
“If that’s the case, then never mind. My friend and I will just make do sowhere else.”
The female waitress smiled politely, but inside she looked down on Zhao ijing with contempt.
A re regular mber, yet expecting to get a spot in their restaurant?
Daydreaming!
The reason the waitress felt this way was nothing more than jealousy of Zhao ijing’s figure and face.
Sotis the animosity between won can be that simple.
Zhao ijing returned to Ren Feifan with a look of disappointnt, and with a hint of apology said, “Ren Feifan, I’m really sorry, I don’t know why this restaurant happens to be fully booked today, looks like I’ll have to take you sowhere else. We’ve already added each other on WeChat anyway, so we can keep in touch and co back here another ti to eat.”
Ren Feifan was indifferent about dining and nodded his head, ready to head outside.
Just as the two were about to leave, two broad-shouldered n in suits ca out from the restaurant, walked up to Zhao ijing, and said politely, “Miss, our master would like to invite you over.”
Zhao ijing wasn’t too surprised. As a flight attendant, getting invited was common. n just wanted her body, but as she wasn’t short of money, of course she wouldn’t just accept. She knew how to handle the situation.
She smiled politely and said to the two n in suits, “I appreciate your master’s kind offer, but I’m here with my friend.”
After saying that, she subconsciously leaned closer to Ren Feifan.
The two n shifted their gaze towards Ren Feifan, adding, “Sir, may we have a word with you in private?”
Ren Feifan’s eyes moved interestingly across the two n in suits. They were slightly imbued with Spiritual Energy but were not cultivators.
To tell the truth, these types of people were no different from rubbish in his eyes.
He had no desire to entertain them, much less take action.
For soone of his Life Loss Realm cultivation to ddle with such small fry would really be beneath him.
He looked around Sanlitun and suddenly had an idea, his eyes lighting up even more as he said to Zhao ijing, “Since you want to eat, let’s go to this restaurant. My treat.”
Without waiting for Zhao ijing to respond, he reached out, grabbed her hand, and led her toward the MODOD restaurant.
Because Ren Feifan had just rembered, the Sanlitun in Capital City and even other comrcial districts had all been acquired by investnt subsidiaries of Feifan Pharmaceuticals.
And what does this an?
That this comrcial district, it belongs to him, Ren Feifan!
