Upon hearing this, Qin Si Ye's heart leaped in surprise, never expecting her to be pondering such a question.
For him, it was difficult to answer.
If he told the truth, it would inevitably expose his private contact with the children.
His gaze darted back and forth a few times, and Qin Si Ye raised an eyebrow, saying, "If you allow me to see you tonight, I'll satisfy your curiosity."
Shen Xi, upon hearing this, became somewhat annoyed, "Qin Si Ye, are you bargaining with me?"
"Can't be helped, it's mainly because you are too harsh on me." Qin Si Ye's lips curved slightly.
Shen Xi thought about it but ultimately did not agree, "No need for you to tell me, I will find out myself."
With that, she immediately hung up the phone.
Qin Si Ye's eyebrows rose slightly; he knew she wouldn't agree, which was why he said that just now.
Although this hurdle was temporarily managed, he inexplicably felt a sense of loss.
This woman's heart was too hardened.
Little did he know that Shen Xi was currently thinking of putting everything else aside, quickly avenging her grievances, and returning to Country B to properly explain that day's events to Mei Yun and Song Kai Cheng.
Although this matter was also very important, it could be put aside for later.
Her gaze was extremely firm, and she immediately called Jian Fan.
"Jian Fan, has Eddie's new batch of pharmaceutical production materials arrived?"
"It will arrive this morning, and production can begin soon," Jian Fan replied.
Shen Xi said calmly, "Good. I'll come over to take a look immediately."
"Sister Xi, don't you need to go to work at the hospital?" Jian Fan asked, looking confused.
Shen Xi replied, "I've already requested a week's leave from the hospital. This week, I'll focus my work on Eddie."
Twenty minutes later, Shen Xi arrived at the pharmaceutical company.
This was an old company acquired from a bankrupt enterprise. After updating the equipment and retraining the employees, the new pharmaceutical company quickly began operating at full steam.
Jian Fan first took Shen Xi to the warehouse to see the newly arrived materials. Upon returning to the office, he handed a document to Shen Xi.
"Sister Xi, this is the company's recent work plan, please take a look."
"Okay." Shen Xi took it and, after reading for a while, looked up and asked, "Have there been any developments in the pharmaceutical companies in City K that we've been monitoring these past couple of days?"
"Yes. They are sending people to inquire about our drug production situation," Jian Fan said, frowning slightly.
"Oh?" Shen Xi's lips curved slightly. "It seems they are quite well-informed. Let them inquire, and we can strategically reveal some information."
Jian Fan immediately understood her meaning.
Sister Xi intended to cast a long line to catch a big fish, to first disrupt their plans, and then take them down in one fell swoop.
"Okay. I know what to do." Jian Fan's lips curved slightly, and a smile appeared on his face.
"However, regarding the core drugs and related personnel, please emphasize and ensure strict confidentiality," Shen Xi looked up at him and added.
Those two drugs were ones she had participated in developing herself; they were her trump cards and absolutely could not be leaked at this time.
"Mm. I understand," Jian Fan replied with a serious expression.
After a moment of thought, Shen Xi asked again, "How is the progress with Zheng Jing He's Xin Xu Company?"
"Everything is proceeding normally. Our cooperation with Lu Shi Group is also going smoothly. Lu Huai An has not harbored any suspicion towards us so far.
A few days ago, I met with him, and he only asked me when Zheng Jing He would return," Jian Fan replied in a low voice.
"And how did you answer?" Shen Xi looked at him in surprise.
"I said that General Manager Zheng is currently on vacation abroad and may not return for about a month," Jian Fan said, walking to the water dispenser and pouring her a cup of warm water.
Shen Xi couldn't help but laugh, "That's a good answer. It should be able to fool him for a while. However, time is tight and the task is heavy, you need to have your people hurry up and find the evidence."
"Mm. I don't keep lazy people around. They haven't been idle during this time; their network has already infiltrated Lu Shi Group's internal affairs, and some clues have been found," Jian Fan replied solemnly.
"That's good. I hope to have results within two weeks," Shen Xi said, then picked up her water cup and took a few sips before standing up. "Let's go, we'll go to the research and development department to take a look."
As Jian Fan accompanied her to the entrance of the R&D department, he suddenly received a call from Song Kai Cheng.
"Sister Xi, you go ahead and look. I'm going out to take a call." Jian Fan said, then took a step back and quickly walked to an empty spot in the courtyard.
