"This is a new drug ingredient, different from 'Taboo', but this improved version of 'Taboo' is even more cruel.

"You won't die immediately, but the pain will torment you for six months. Ultimately, you will die, and there's no cure."

Zheng Huahe felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer. He held the phone stiffly and was speechless for a moment.

At this moment, the doctor's words made him completely lose the relief he had just felt.

"What did you say? Give me more details."

He spoke in a low voice, his face looking particularly hideous in the dark night, and under the flickering light of the car lights, it exuded a deathly gray coldness.

"Mr. Zheng, the drug in your body has a similar effect to 'Taboo', but is even more toxic. Strictly speaking, it can be said to be an upgraded version of 'Taboo'... Upgraded version?

Is there an upgraded version of 'Taboo'?

In order to deal with him, Fang Yu actually went to great lengths to develop an enhanced version of 'Taboo'?

The formula of 'Taboo' is the top secret of Tianwang Palace. No one knows it except Fang Yu and the core R&D personnel, let alone having the conditions and funds to develop an upgraded version.

This requires enormous resources and funding...

Zheng Huahe has always adopted a moderate strategy in the business world, trying to avoid making enemies if the problem can be solved with money. He never thought that someone would be so cruel to him.

"I understand."

The only other organization that could go to such great lengths to target him was the Heavenly King Palace.

Isn’t his support for the Heavenly King Palace enough to gain Fang Yu’s trust and win him over?

Zheng Huahe's heart was in turmoil, and his suspicion of Fang Yu rose again and reached its peak.

In the past, he had done his best to help Fang Yu, but now he hated Fang Yu's calculations.

"Also, Mr. Zheng, don't worry too much. The amount of 'taboo' injected into your body is limited. It will only cause a temporary reaction, and the damage isn't too serious. If we can find an antidote, it might be worth a try."

The doctor's voice on the other end of the phone was unusually calm.

Now that things have come to this, this is all he can do.

"understood."

Zheng Huahe let out a long sigh.

Maybe, worth a try?

Even the antidote for ordinary 'taboos' is difficult to develop, let alone the upgraded version that Fang Yu spent so much effort to customize for himself?

Zheng Huahe knew it very well, and the hope that had just been ignited was quickly shattered. His face became even paler and his heart was dead.

"Mr. Zheng, are we still going in?"

The driver noticed that Zheng Huahe looked unhappy, and drove with a serious expression without saying a word.

"Get in!"

He wanted to see how long Fang Yu would continue this drama.

Why are they repeatedly inviting him to the Flying Tiger Banquet? What unspeakable secret is hidden behind this?

The driver parked the car, respectfully opened the door for Zheng Huahe, and offered his hand to help him get out.

Zheng Huahe waved his hand to refuse, straightened his back, and walked into the venue proudly.

The Flying Tiger Banquet officially began after the host’s grand introduction and warm-up.

Celebrities and wealthy people from all walks of life began to communicate with each other, toast each other, and talk continuously.

Li Hao came downstairs and happened to meet Zheng Huahe, who walked into the banquet hall with a gloomy face. A subtle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and a complacent snort escaped his nose.

When Zheng Huahe looked up and around, his eyes met Li Hao's. Seeing him walking towards the first row where Cai Qianwen was, he was slightly stunned, then nodded slightly as a response.

Li Hao nodded, gave him a faint smile, turned and sat next to Cai Qianwen.

Cai Qianwen, holding a glass of red wine from a French Bordeaux winery, watched the social interactions of the people around her with boredom.

Boring as hell...

Regardless of whether these people knew each other or not, they were as enthusiastic as old friends.

Even if it is the first time you meet, you should act like you didn’t meet each other earlier, exchange business cards, add each other on WeChat, and then continue to look for the next “soul mate”.

Cai Qianwen was already accustomed to such lively gatherings, but she felt nothing in her heart and had no interest at all.

In the Cai family where she was, there was no need to deliberately curry favor with anyone, and she herself had long been disgusted with this kind of superficial but false relationship.

In her opinion, true friendship does not require too many words. Even if two people sit quietly and play their own mobile games, they will not feel awkward or unfamiliar with each other.

However, at such a gathering, if there is even a slight dull moment, everyone will feel uncomfortable and uneasy.

Cai Qianwen held a glass of red wine in her hand, sipping it boredly, her eyes scanning the surroundings aimlessly.

I couldn't help but laugh when I saw them pretending to be something, showing off themselves while hiding their true feelings.

"What are you laughing at?" Li Hao sat next to her and saw Cai Qianwen's face full of joyful smile, like a child seeing a wonderful circus performance.

"What are you looking at them?" Cai Qianwen turned to look at Li Hao, holding a glass of red wine.

"What's wrong with them?" Li Hao looked around at the crowd calmly.

"They're all good, no different."

People are well-dressed, behave elegantly and gracefully, and every move they make shows their upbringing and taste.

"There's really nothing special about them? Take a closer look, what's the difference between them?" Cai Qianwen deliberately joked, pointing her finger lightly at the crowd, asking Li Hao to guess.

"I don't see any difference." Li Hao answered softly, not annoyed by Cai Qianwen's little trick.

Cai Qianwen looked at Li Hao's calm face, the smile on her lips faded a little, she blinked at him and said seriously: "You are different."

Cai Qianwen said with a slightly naughty tone.

"What's the difference?"

Does he have more eyes, mouth or ears than other people?

Cai Qianwen shook her head. "It's just different, Li Hao. You can't see your uniqueness yourself, but we can all feel it."

She looked serious, not joking at all.

She understood, Shen Mengting understood, and everyone who liked Li Hao also understood that he was different.

In the eyes of those who like him, he is so brilliant and completely different from others!

"Oh?" Li Hao raised his eyebrows slightly, his movements subtle.

There is still some time before the plan is implemented. Li Hao is not in a hurry at this time. Instead, he is interested in chatting with Cai Qianwen.

Because he saw Fang Yu walking into the banquet hall from afar.

He began to toast and talk to the dignitaries in Kyoto.

He also discovered that although Fang Yu was talking to other people, his eyes always drifted over here inadvertently. Li Hao knew that Fang Yu's attention had never really shifted away from him.

Ha ha!

Li Hao lowered his head and chuckled. He knew that a big show would take place tonight!

And the protagonist of this scene is Fang Yu, if he can restrain himself from appearing on the stage.

Without a protagonist, the excitement of the play is naturally greatly reduced!

Li Hao chuckled, and Cai Qianwen mistakenly thought he was making fun of her.

She turned her head and frowned, muttering with a hint of dissatisfaction:

"Li Hao, are you laughing at me? I'm serious!"

"Stop laughing! Li Hao, if you laugh again..."

Cai Qianwen held the red wine in one hand and tried to cover Li Hao's mouth with the other hand to stop him from laughing.
