Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Li Zhenshan’s Grave Entrustment!

The tote bag, though not large, was sealed, and the few items inside were particularly special.

Two amber-colored bottles of medicine, one ingredient list, one user manual, and the latest test report.

The key was that the two bottles were labeled with "Original 8028" and "New 8028" respectively.

Li Zishen was greatly shocked after reviewing them.

years ago, Li Zhenshan died in a car accident. On his deathbed, he entrusted two important tasks to his eldest son, who was only ten at the time, Li Zishen.

One was to continue the research on 8028 and improve it, and the other was to find the remains of his first love, Yi Xiaodan, at all costs, and be buried together with him.

However, things did not go as planned, and there had been no significant breakthroughs in these two matters to this day.

"Please show him in, and don’t bother with tea later. I’d like to have a private conversation with Mr. Wang... go ahead."

"Yes, Brother Shen."

After the secretary left, Li Zishen put the bottle containing the original 8028 back into the tote bag, his brow deeply furrowed.

Shortly after, the solid wood door of the office was opened again, and a man claiming to be surnamed Wang entered.

He moved with a sprightly step, his gaze gentle.

The visitor was none other than Wang Junchen, born Tang Jun, one of the founders of the FC off-road club, whom Li Zishen had recently planned to have Bai Long investigate thoroughly.

Although his wife, Ye Wanhua, owned Wanhua Jewelry, which had significant influence among the ladies of high society.

These years, he had cooperated with Li Zishen many times in Yishen Mall, but it was the first time Li Zishen had met Wang Junchen in person.

"A tiger does not father a dog—it’s really not easy to meet Mr. Li in person, I’ve long admired your reputation. My name is Wang Junchen."

Wang Junchen began with a compliment and handed over his business card.

"Pleased to meet you. You’ve improved 8028?"

Wang Junchen smiled faintly, did not take up the conversation, and instead walked straight to the three-seater sofa in the reception area and sat down, effectively acknowledging the statement.

Though 45 years old, his appearance was remarkable.

From head to toe, except for his age, he was faultless, a handsome man through and through.

Li Zishen tapped the tote bag lightly twice and continued, "You’ve brought these... may I ask your intentions?"

"Swift and decisive, just like your father. No need for pleasantries, tell me what you want."

"Cooperation, mutual benefit."

Li Zishen’s mouth curled up slightly, "You might have made a trip for nothing, found the wrong person. 8028 was indeed developed by my grandfather, but it has been out of production for decades now, and with the medicine market changing so rapidly these days... does it still hold any value?"

"As far as I know, your father had always been... secretly improving it before his death, but due to technical limitations at the time... he never saw it fulfilled."

Li Zishen’s jaw tensed sharply, a hint of astonishment flashing through his eyes.

He was aware of this, had he been investigated?

The private improvement of 8028 was known to few, even his uncles were kept in the dark.

"It seems you’re well-informed about my father."

"As a businessman, profit is paramount, knowing the enemy as well as oneself ensures victory in every battle. In fact... you do need the technical support from my side, and I, on the other hand, would like to leverage the market influence of Yishen Pharmaceutical to make some extra retirement money. We could both benefit from this, think it over."

Wang Junchen’s voice was not loud, a smile still on his face, but his words gave Li Zishen a strong sense of pressure, clearly conveying he meant business.

Indeed, it was a mutual need!

Since taking over the conglomerate at 18, Li Zishen had been hiring top medical talent and doctoral graduates from various countries in an attempt to fulfill his father Li Zhenshan’s wishes as soon as possible.

A couple of days ago, he accompanied Tang Xiaowan back to Mei Garden.

Li Zishen had planned to investigate Wang Junchen in more detail after returning, since Bai Long had discovered numerous suspicions. But due to the recent hacker incident, it was postponed.

Unexpectedly, not only did the man come to him, but he also brought such a big surprise.

"So what do you say, Mr. Li, shall we discuss the contract?"

"As it concerns investment, I need to hold a board meeting... to hear the opinions of others. Would you be willing to wait?"

Wang Junchen stood up: "I can wait."

"These medicines..."

"Consider them a gesture of good faith for our cooperation. Keep them."

With that, Wang Junchen left with a smile.

Throughout the process, Li Zishen did not get up to see him off, remaining seated beside his desk, maintaining a superior posture.

"Cooperation? Retirement money?"

His intuition told him there was more to this than met the eye.
