Forced marriage by a substitute bride? The spoiled son of a prominent Beijing socialite! His whole f

Despite his seemingly carefree expression, Xiong Tao was secretly observing the other side.

There was a man and a woman; it seemed the man was the buyer in this transaction.

In just one glance, he felt the oppressive aura of the other party's powerful presence.

This made Xiong Tao mutter to himself.

That's really impressive.

The woman next to them, however, was already wearing a black veil, and they were both wearing masks, making it impossible to recognize them or confirm whether they were He Yan.

"You two didn't have to wait long, did you? Oh well, I had to be careful on the way, hahaha!"

"It's alright. Now that I'm here, I'm determined to get what I want. I have plenty of time."

Bo Siheng noticed the way Xiong Tao was staring at He Yan.

Even though he knew they were guessing their identities, he was still very unhappy.

He couldn't help but hug He Yan tighter.

"May I ask your honorable surname? And will the things you brought today satisfy me?"

This was something Bo Siheng and He Yan had agreed upon, and he would take the lead.

This was also intended to confuse the public and make them doubt their own suspicions that He Yan had set a trap.

He then slid a round object across the table.

"That's my stance, as long as your stuff is truly worth the price."

Xiong Tao reached out and took it, then picked it up to look at it.

That was the machine that Bai Wuye used to verify the credentials of VIP guests, and the price that the other party was willing to pay was also marked on it.

The amount is tempting.

Xiong Tao laughed heartily and patted the box that his subordinate was holding.

"No problem. My name is Xiong Tao. I make pharmaceuticals and can offer some conveniences to my friends in the underworld."

Even through the black veil, He Yan could clearly see the greed on his face.

You don't even need to guess what's in the box.

She couldn't help but clench her fist.

Bo Siheng keenly sensed He Yan's movements and emotions. He reached out and pulled He Yan into his arms.

This was both to comfort her and to remind her not to reveal her identity easily.

He Yan glanced back at Bo Siheng and smiled slightly to reassure him.

"We have to inspect the goods first."

"Inspecting the goods is easy, but I can't sell them to people who don't know their value, right?"

Xiong Tao's expression changed, and he placed one hand on the table and leaned forward.

He clearly saw the two people opposite him talking.

At this point, of course you should try to find out what kind of person the other party really is.

"I wonder which gang my friend belongs to?"

"This doesn't seem necessary..."

Bo Siheng's expression hardened; he could tell that the other party was deliberately testing him.

He was about to say something when He Yan interrupted him.

“We are here on behalf of the Henry family, who are in power in Country D. If you are not sincere, we are not indispensable to you! We need to test your medicine to know if it works.”

She held Bo Siheng's hand under the table, explaining things on his behalf.

Xiong Tao's expression did indeed freeze for a moment.

He certainly knew that there was a Henry family in Country D, and that he had sold medicine to them before.

However, since they have never met in person, he has no way of verifying whether it is true or not.

"This lady is overreacting. I was just saying it casually."

He's been probing ever since he came in, but he hasn't been able to figure anything out.

This doesn't mean there aren't any problems.

Xiong Tao stared at the woman opposite him, still remembering Li Guanghui's words: to test whether this woman was He Yan or not.

Or rather, is He Yan truly the successor of the divine physician he fears?

"It's very simple to find out what my medicine does and how it works!"

Just then, the door to the private room opened, and a waitress came in to serve drinks.

Xiong Tao immediately gave a signal with his eyes.

The waitress was about to leave after putting the items away when she was grabbed.

"What do you want to do?"

Xiong Tao didn't waste any words with her. He took out a bottle of medicine from the box, poured out a dark pill, and forced the waitress to swallow it by pinching her mouth.

The subordinate then released the waitress, letting her fall to the ground.

He Yan and Bo Siheng both stood up in shock.

A moment later, the waitress lying on the ground was clutching her neck in pain.

Under the light, her lips instantly turned blue.

"Help...I don't want to die..."

"what do you mean?"

He Yan was very angry and immediately questioned Xiong Tao.

She knew that the other party was deliberately provoking her to test her identity.

But he shouldn't have used human lives to test drugs.

That was He Yan's Achilles' heel.

She looked at the waitress, who was clearly in great pain and struggling to breathe. Judging from her bluish lips and bloodshot eyes, she was suffering immense torment.

"Mr. Xiong, I have my own methods for inspecting goods. Aren't you going too far by doing this?"

"We're in business, so of course we'll show you the most direct results."

Xiong Tao looked at He Yan arrogantly, completely unconcerned.

He was even looking forward to seeing this.

If this woman is truly a descendant of a divine healer, he can confirm it as soon as she makes a move.

"Save people first."

He Yan turned around and quickly said something to Bo Siheng before leaving the private room and running to the other side.

Bo Siheng's expression revealed worry, but he also understood that the matter was urgent.

He knew that He Yan wouldn't just sit idly by.

That was her compassionate heart as a doctor, and his wife's innate kindness and great love.

But this is not a reason for the other party to deliberately make things unpleasant.

"Mr. Xiong, it seems that this is not the kind of medicine I need. Are you sure you haven't made a mistake?"

Bo Siheng hurriedly pressed the communicator next to the table, which allowed him to directly contact Bai Wuye's security.

To ensure confidentiality, the private rooms are not monitored.

They wouldn't ruin their own reputation.

"Is there any difference? This is better than what you wanted."

Xiong Tao was still smug.

The waitress bit her lip so hard it bled, and collapsed to the ground in a sorry state.

At this moment, He Yan kicked open the door of the private room and rushed in. She quickly fed the waitress a pill, and after making sure she swallowed it, she used a needle hidden in her fingertip to prick the waitress's neck.

"Damn it! Why don't you use it on yourself?"

She was so angry that she started swearing.

Xiong Tao was so shocked by how fierce the woman was that he was still a little stunned.

He was certain he wasn't mistaken; she had just performed first aid on the waiter.

So, there really is something wrong with her identity?

"I had no idea Mr. Henry had such a capable subordinate like you. You also practice medicine and make pharmaceuticals?"

He had initially thought Li Guanghui was overthinking things, but now he had seen it with his own eyes.

With a single injection and a dose of medicine, the waitress's pain was relieved.

He immediately signaled to his subordinates with his eyes.

On the other side, Bo Siheng also kept a close eye on Xiong Tao's every move.

He narrowed his eyes, his expression filled with a chilling aura.

He wouldn't mind bloodshed here if the other side dared to touch He Yan.

"What I do is none of your business. You're just trying to test us, but don't forget whose territory this is. You should think about how you're going to explain yourself."

He Yan hadn't expected Xiong Tao to make such a sudden move, and her eyes were filled with undisguised anger.

At this moment, the lights in both private rooms were turned on.

A man wearing glasses and covering his mouth with a handkerchief appeared at the door.

The man looked sickly and weak, but he was Bai Zheng, the mastermind behind this black market.

The bar manager was following behind him.

"Who broke the rules here?"
