TMH:RID.

After all, he still had the five seeds of the Valley Orchid that Lu Chuwan had given him earlier on. Therefore, it was unnecessary for him to hang on to Fu Zhi.

Since Fu Zhi had refused to form an alliance with him, it was fine by him. He could continue to support Lu Chuwan, and he was certain that Fu Zhi would realize that these so-called moral principles and backbone were nothing but jokes before the power of money.

Lu Yubai trained his eyes on the leaving Dong Cun and frowned. He had no idea why, but a bad hunch was stirring at the bottom of his stomach pit. Therefore, he turned back to Fu Zhi and said, "Listen to me, Zhizhi. Don't give anyone your Valley Orchid. Even if grandma asks you to, just say no. You got it?"

Fu Zhi nodded seriously and replied, "I got it."

However, Lu Yubai still felt that his sister was a little naive and air-headed. Not wanting her to be deceived and taken advantage of, he pressed on and asked, "What if she insists on it? What are you going to reply if she threatens to kill herself if you don't give her the Valley Orchid?"

Fu Zhi cocked her head and said, "I will say that Brother Yubai won't let me give the flower to anybody, including my grandma."

Lu Yubai was speechless.

"Alright then." He chuckled.

Well, she had passed the buck late, but she had still blamed him.

Chapter 242: As Long As You Give Me Enough Money, Honey
Dong Cun did not know how to reason with an ignorant kid like Fu Zhi.

Lu Chuwan had been listening to their conversation from the sidelines the whole time, and she heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Dong Cun was leaving. However, Bai Yao felt that it was not enough. She understood that Lu Yumo would side with Fu Zhi since he was a fool, but why did Lu Yubai have to join the fray as well?

Lu Chuwan pressed her lips firmly and clenched her fists so tightly that her nails stabbed into her palm. Forcing a smile on her face, she asked, "By the way, when is cousin coming back?"

Bai Yao frowned when Lu Chuwan mentioned Lu Yubai's brother, who was receiving treatment abroad. She pressed down the disgust that nearly spilled from her eyes as she said, "Don't get so close to him. He's a cripple, and you might catch his illness."

Lu Chuwan curled her lips but did not say anything.

At the same time, Lu Ning was having a fight with Dong Cun. After she finished her fight with Dong Cun, she went to look for Fu Zhi.

Fu Zhi had made quite a good impression on Lu Ning.

Since they had been left alone, Fu Zhi got to the main topic. "The top medical team of our country has been working under the Fu Corporation and the government for two years. If I'm not mistaken, the Dong Family's research team consists only of researchers from overseas, right?"

It was windy at night.

As Fu Zhi stood beside the rockwork, the hair on the side of her face was messed up by the wind, and soft moonbeams lit up her face with a glow of ethereal beauty. The mole on her collarbone was bright red and created a stark contrast against her pale skin.

Lu Ning retracted her gaze and nodded. However, she did not know why Fu Zhi had suddenly brought the topic up, so she asked, "Is there a problem with us hiring researchers from overseas?"

"Yes, there is a big problem," Fu Zhi replied. Then, she began to list out the consequences of their actions. "Have you thought about why our government wants to sell the anti-cancer drugs to foreign countries? The reason they did so is to cover up the financial loss for supporting those who can't afford the medicine. Therefore, if another country successfully mastered this technique, do you think we could still sell the medicine for such a high price?"
