"Fuck you, bastard!" Anthony slapped Marcus."You almost killed my wife, yet you still dare to throw accusations around? Just you wait. When I'm done dealing with my wife, I will come for you."Anthony almost died of anger.The bastard harmed his wife, and he still wanted to cause further confusion and prevent Ashton from saving his wife. Did he have a grudge against Tammy to want her dead?When Ashton came to the hospital bed, he did not dare to hesitate for another second. He started massaging her. Starting from the pressure point in the middle of Tammy's forehead, he moved down to her chin. At the same time, his other hand quickly twisted, accumulated more core essence, and reapplied the medicinal patches.From top to bottom, the light energy flowed.From bottom to top, the dark energy flowed.Two distinct energies flowed up and down her meridians and blended near Tammy's lower abdomen's elixir core.When the two energies converged, the detection instruments that had issued
The indifference on her face was chilling.Inside the car, the driver could not help shivering. He wondered if the woman was made of ice.The car drove north to the Acton Chamber of Commerce's pharmaceutical group headquarters in Edren County.It was a 30-story building with the words Acton Chamber of Commerce on the signboard.The pharmaceutical group was just one of the Acton Chamber of Commerce branches. Due to the rise of the Internet in recent years and the popularity of health and beauty products, a substantial online sales channel was born.The combination of network and physical sales was the core of Acton Pharmaceuticals' future development.When they reached the 27th floor, Aerin pushed the hall door open. The inside was packed.In addition to senior management, the group had many technicians, scientific researchers, and pharmacists of various drug categories. Most were graduates of top schools and top chemistry students who returned from abroad."Miss Blau, the resea
Aerin nearly lost her cool.Solomon stroked his chin with great interest.As for the others, they were all waiting for a good show to happen."Ash, let's calm down. After all, pharmaceuticals are not our strong suit..."Before Anthony finished speaking, he was interrupted."Who said that pharmacy is not my strong suit?"Ashton turned his head and glanced at Aerin. "It seems Miss Blau is not sincere about this deal, so let's stop working together."Just as Ashton wanted to leave, some bodyguards stopped him."Miss Blau, you don't think you can keep me here by force, do you?" Ashton flicked his wrist."Of course not. You're confident enough to come here, so you must be confident you can leave at your will."However, you should not underestimate me as well. I can talk to you calmly, and I can also hold you down, Ashton. What do you think, Mister Levin?" Aerin played with the ice-blue ring on her finger. The smile on her face was sweet and harmless."Why don't you try it?" Ashto
"I'm a pharmacist, not a cultivator. Don't scare me with your tricks." Solomon's eyes were cold."Your cultivation status is irrelevant to me. I can kill you anytime if you provoke me." Ashton laughed."You!" Solomon nearly choked on anger.The man had no sportsmanship spirit at all! Solomon had told him he was not a cultivator or a warrior, so why would he want to fight him?"Mister Levin, we did not mean to cause trouble. Didn't you say that I was not sincere about this deal? Then I'll change to a more sincere method." Aerin played with her beautiful nails. "Mister Levin, you want to be Acton Pharmaceutical Group's pharmaceutical director, right?""That's right." Ashton raised his eyebrows slightly."I like the Acton Chamber of Commerce's medicinal material purchase channel. If I can work with you, it will be a win-win situation for both of us."The smile on Aerin's face became even sweeter. "Well, why don't we have a more interesting contest? Let's see if your knowledge of ph
Ashton turned and walked into the apothecary lab, casually picking a few herbs from a shelf brimming with medicinal ingredients. In pharmaceuticals, the ultimate mastery lies in using the simplest components to unleash their complete medicinal properties, creating various effects. For instance, combining Jewel weed and wisteria flower in a three-to-one ratio and adding three grams of seeds can instantly produce a potent poison capable of disrupting blood composition. The balance between Jewel weed and wisteria flower is critical; even the slightest deviation can significantly ruin the medicine, reducing its toxicity.Such is the marvel of pharmacology.Minutes later, Ashton stood before a mass of greenish medicinal paste. He drained the liquid from the paste and blended it with one gram of butterfly ginger and three grams of pure reishi mushroom. After heating the mixture over low flame for three minutes, the paste miraculously solidified into a reddish-green pill.Holding the pill
It was not the time to lay all his cards on the table."Do you have any concerns, Mister Levin?" Aerin looked at him curiously."Not really, though you can be a bit warmer," Ashton said, half-jokingly.Seemingly unaware of the hidden meaning behind Ashton's words, Aerin steered the conversation back to pharmaceuticals. According to Aerin, Acton Pharmaceuticals' biggest competitor in the Central South and South Edren regions was the Holden Biological Company.Holden Biological Company? The name caught Ashton off guard. Was that the firm controlled by Kendra's mother, Rubie? Was it ethical to help Aerin against the Lockwood family's pharmaceutical company? Furthermore, could he even trust Aerin? If it were not for mutually beneficial interests, they would never collaborate."Oh, by the way, Mister Levin, I have another favor to ask you," Aerin said."Asking for my assistance comes at a price, and it's usually steep," Ashton said."Mister Levin, you must be joking! It's only a smal
"Yanne? Ashton?" Alora's mood instantly sour. Seeing her ex-husband strolling around with another woman had dampened her spirits. Furthermore, given the tumultuous events that had unfolded since their divorce just a few weeks ago, Alora was not just upset; she felt utterly betrayed and uncomfortable."What's up, Alora? Who are you looking at? Someone you know?" Florence and Hugo caught up from behind.With just a glance, Florence immediately spotted Ashton, and her smile vanished instantly. "Levin?""Why do we see him wherever we go? Does he have a nose for sniffing us out?""Missus Latham, Alora, who are you talking about?" Hugo stepped forward, smiling curiously."Who else?" Florence gestured toward Ashton's retreating figure. "Alora's ex-husband. The good-for-nothing leech who's been freeloading off the Latham family for years."Hugo's expression instantly turned icy, and a sneer crept across his lips. "Ex-husband?""Mom! He saved Grandpa. You don't have to speak so harshly,"
Inside the box was not a reishi mushroom. It was black and yellow and even oozed a bit of a viscous green fluid. It was utterly disgusting.Is that what they call a snowy reishi mushroom?Alora did not know much about medicinal ingredients, but her intuition told her she had been duped."Mister Yoder, I think you've cheated me," Alora seethed, throwing the box back onto the counter. "Is this what you call a reishi mushroom for 450 thousand dollars?"Mister Yoder was taken aback. "What are you talking about, Miss Latham? This is an 80-year-old snowy reishi mushroom. It's of premium quality. How did I cheat you?"Hugo laughed. "Are you sure about that? I've served in the military for nine years and have been on several special operations. I've been to all the dangerous places within our borders and was fortunate to see a top-grade snowy reishi mushroom in the Mount Cayambe region. A snowy reishi mushroom should be crystal clear, with a transparent core and reddish base, exuding a fr
