Chapter 79: Chapter 79

After Li Xiaolu and his group left, Zhang Xiaohao walked up to the desk of a finance staff member and said, "Give me a reimbursement form!"

"Ah! It’s Mr. Zhang." The other party was startled at first, then quickly took out a ledger and a black pen and respectfully handed them over.

Zhang Xiaohao expressionlessly took the ledger, directly wrote down a public relations note for one million, tore it out, and handed it to Lin Xiaowen.

Lin Xiaowen sneered, walked up to Ma Xiaorong, and humiliatingly threw the reimbursement form onto her face, staring straight at her without saying a word.

"Secretary Lin, please wait, I’ll transfer the money to your public relations department’s card right now," Ma Xiaorong said respectfully.

Her demeanor couldn’t get any more compliant, and her posture couldn’t get any lower, she was just short of calling Lin Xiaowen "big sister" and serving her tea and water.

Very soon, the one million in funds had already been transferred to the special card of the public relations department.

"Let’s go!" Zhang Xiaohao said coldly and led the way outside.

Wu Qiaoqiao and Lin Xiaowen, arrogant and chest out, left with the other four beauties from the public relations department.

Seeing Zhang Xiaohao and his group leave, Ma Xiaorong’s eyes flashed with viciousness, and she thought bitterly, "Lin Xiaowen, you stinking bitch, dare to humiliate me! If I can’t handle Zhang Xiaohao, the bastard, can’t I handle you? Just you wait, I’ll make sure you regret this!"

Seeing the finance department’s staff looking at her with strange eyes, Ma Xiaorong immediately furious, roared, "What the hell are you looking at? Keep looking and I’ll have you all fired! A bunch of useless things!"

Back in the office, Zhang Xiaohao sat splendiferously in his boss chair.

"Secretary Lin, where does our company usually purchase medicinal materials?" Zhang Xiaohao asked.

Sitting across him were the two beauties, Wu Qiaoqiao and Lin Xiaowen.

"Mr. Zhang, Bai Xue Company usually purchases medicinal materials from Changtian Medicine Hall, where the materials are inexpensive and of good quality," Lin Xiaowen explained. For more chapters visıt 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝕟𝕖𝕥

"Hmm, I’ll give you two ten minutes to prepare. In ten minutes, we’ll head to Changtian Medicine Hall," Zhang Xiaohao said.

"Yes, Mr. Zhang," Wu Qiaoqiao and Lin Xiaowen replied, and they left with their folders in hand.

Ten minutes later, Zhang Xiaohao stood with Wu Qiaoqiao and Lin Xiaowen outside the Bai Xue Company building.

"Wow! Mr. Zhang, whose car is this? It’s so beautiful!" Wu Qiaoqiao exclaimed, looking at the white Volkswagen SUV in front of her.

"Take it! This is the compensation I promised you," Zhang Xiaohao said, a bit irritated, and tossed the keys to her.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang! I love you to death," Wu Qiaoqiao said excitedly, hugging Zhang Xiaohao quickly and forcefully kissing him on the mouth, before swiftly pulling away from his embrace.

"We’re in a public place, show some class. It looks bad to others!" Zhang Xiaohao said, touching his nose in annoyance.

"Afraid of what? Men should marry and women should wed. As long as I’m willing, can they control it? Let them see but not eat, makes them envious to death!" Wu Qiaoqiao said pridefully.

After speaking, she quickly opened the door and sat in the driver’s seat.

Zhang Xiaohao opened the car door and sat in the back seat, and for some reason, Lin Xiaowen didn’t sit in the passenger’s seat but instead joined him in the back.

Seeing Lin Xiaowen’s action, Wu Qiaoqiao wasn’t pleased, but there was nothing she could do about it. Although she was the deputy head of the office and managed dozens of beautiful women, she had no authority over Lin Xiaowen, the senior secretary.

Driving, they headed to Changtian Medicine Hall.

A figure watched coldly as the group of three left with Zhang Xiaohao, took out a cell phone, and dialed a number...

"Mr. Zhang, you must be tired, right? Let me give you a massage," Lin Xiaowen said, her face blushing.

Having said that, regardless of whether Zhang Xiaohao was willing or not—after all, she was willing—she extended both hands and directly touched Zhang Xiaohao’s legs to massage them.

Zhang Xiaohao took advantage of the situation by leaning on Lin Xiaowen’s soft thighs, feeling the warmth beneath him, closed his eyes, and blissfully thought to himself, being a leader is just fantastic! This kind of treatment is amazing!

Thank heaven, thank earth! Thank you, Master Old Ghost, for really coming through this time.

Without further conversation, and amidst this strange atmosphere, about half an hour later, the white Volkswagen car stopped in front of Changtian Medicine Hall.

"We’ve arrived, Mr. Zhang," Wu Qiaoqiao reminded timely.

"We’ve arrived already? That was quick!" Zhang Xiaohao said meaningfully.

After getting out of the car, with two beauties in tow, they headed towards Changtian Medicine Hall.

"Egghead, where’s your boss?" Upon entering, Wu Qiaoqiao immediately stopped one of the shop assistants of Changtian Medicine Hall and said.

"Ah! If it isn’t Director Wu! What kind of wind blew you here today?" Egghead’s eyes flashed with a hint of panic, but he tried to appear calm as he spoke.

"Cut the crap! Where’s your boss?" Wu Qiaoqiao said.

"Sorry, Director Wu, our boss is out on business and might not be back for a month," Egghead replied.

"Oh, is that so? Get me some medicinal herbs," Wu Qiaoqiao said.

"I’m really sorry, Director Wu, but our store has pretty much sold out of herbs recently. Maybe you should try somewhere else," Egghead said.

"What’s going on? Changtian Medicine Hall is one of the best in Nanhua City; how could you possibly run out of medicinal herbs?" Wu Qiaoqiao said with a frown.

"I’m really sorry, but we truly have sold out," Egghead said, trying to remain composed. Although he put on a good act, Zhang Xiaohao still saw a flicker of something unnatural in his eyes.

Seeing Wu Qiaoqiao was about to speak, Zhang Xiaohao said, "Let’s try another place."

"Hmm," Wu Qiaoqiao agreed with a nod, following behind Zhang Xiaohao as the three of them headed out.

After watching the trio drive away, Egghead pulled out his phone and dialed his boss’s number, saying, "Boss, the people from Bai Xue Company just came, and I sent them away just like you told me to."

"Mr. Zhang, I know of a few bigger medicinal herb shops. Shall we go try them out?" Wu Qiaoqiao suggested while driving.

"Hmm," Zhang Xiaohao responded indifferently, feeling a lingering bad premonition as if this trip wouldn’t go so smoothly.

Two hours later, Zhang Xiaohao’s group had visited over a dozen large medicinal herb retail stores, only to find the same result at each: the herbs had all been sold out.

By this point, even Wu Qiaoqiao, who could be slow at times, realized that they were being targeted.

"Bastard! Damn scum! You’d better hope I don’t find out who is deliberately targeting us, or I won’t let you off," Wu Qiaoqiao said fiercely with a stern face.

"Forget it, let’s go to the city’s medicinal wholesale market," Zhang Xiaohao suggested after some thought.

"Mr. Zhang, I know of a place that has a medicinal herb shop..." Lin Xiaowen murmured meekly.

Without waiting for her to finish, Wu Qiaoqiao interrupted and said, "Then what are we waiting for, lead the way."
