Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Together, Mo Yu and his wife had officially established the Fang Liu Foundation.
Meanwhile, after careful consideration, Fang Liu decided to start a business in traditional Chinese medicine. However, there was a reasoning behind Fang Liu’s decision to get involved in this field.
During Fang Liu’s pregnancy, she read many medical books. Although she was not as good as Chu Hao in clinical diagnosis and treatment, Fang Liu still had a sufficient understanding of medicine.
In recent years, traditional Chinese medicine has not progressed, and there weren’t many companies that specialized in this field. Most of the healthcare products have been poor in quality, so the market for traditional Chinese medicine and healthcare products wasn’t all that competitive as a result. But it would still be a challenge nonetheless.
Fang Liu wanted to develop a healthcare product of her own, promote it, and make a brand out of it. Coincidentally, Fang Liu possesses more than eight million Instagram followers now, so it was simply too convenient for her to promote her future brand.
Though, it was not easy to develop a healthcare product of her own. Fang Liu would need a lot of staffing and resources to be successful.
There were a few discrepancies in Fang Liu’s plan. Mo Yu was not familiar with pharmaceuticals, and although Chu Hao was a doctor, he had no experience with the pharmaceutical industry. Also, Fang Liu did not have a research team or a laboratory to use.
It was not that Mo Yu could not afford to invest in a research team, but it would be too much of a risk. Nevertheless, Fang Liu was willing to start a business of her own and did not want to depend on Mo Yu to help her.
Mo Yu felt helpless, but this was what Fang Liu wanted, after all. Mo Yu simply supported his wife unconditionally.
In the end, Mo Yu was able to think of a solution.
Although Mo Yu did not dabble in the world of medicine, he knew that Qi Han’s family was involved in manufacturing medical devices and medication. Mo Yu reluctantly gave Qi Han a call with a gloomy expression on his face for the sake of helping his wife.
When Qi Han saw that he was receiving a call from Mo Yu, he answered the phone with an incredibly smug tone in his voice.
“Oh my goodness, do my ears deceive me? Is this the honorable Mr. Mo calling? Did something happen with you and Fang Liu? Do you need me to console you?”
Qi Han had recently gone overseas to appear in a film, so he had not paid much attention to what had been going on in Southern City. Qi Han was unaware that the Yu-Liu duo had become a famous couple that countless people admired.
Mo Yu wanted to hang up the phone immediately when he heard Qi Han’s annoying voice. But for the sake of his wife, Mo Yu eventually suppressed his anger and said with a gloomy tone, “You were married, had children, and got divorced. I don’t need relationship advice from you. My marriage with Fang Liu is going swimmingly. You don’t need to worry about us.”
Qi Han clicked his tongue and retorted, “That might be true, but don’t count your chickens before they hatch, young man.”
The Qi family was involved in some business dealings with the Mo family in the past. Mo Yu and Qi Han were the same age and went to the same school, so they had some history together. However, Qi Han and Mo Yu were not as close compared to Mo Yu and Chu Hao’s relationship.
Mo Yu knew that Qi Han was a d*uchebag. Qi Han had always been very sarcastic, but Mo Yu was already used to it.
“I need a favor from you. Can I use your family’s medical research lab?” Mo Yu called to ask Qi Han for a favor, but he did it so demandingly.
“No, you may not,” Qi Han rejected Mo Yu immediately without the slightest bit of hesitation.
It wasn’t that Qi Han was being petty. Qi Han wasn’t close with his family, so how could he ask them for such a favor?
The Qi family’s research lab isn’t something that others could easily access. If Qi Han were to tell his family that Mo Yu was interested in using their research lab, they might think that the Mo family would also want to develop pharmaceuticals and compete with them.
The Qi family would undoubtedly avoid letting the Mo family compete with them.
Mo Yu was only casually asking Qi Han for a favor, and when he heard Qi Han’s refusal, he was not surprised. Mo Yu immediately replied, “All right, I’ll hang up then.”
As Mo Yu was about to hang up the phone, Qi Han hurriedly yelled, “Hey, wait! Why don’t you beg me for it instead? Maybe if you begged profusely, I’d agree.”
It was not common for Mo Yu to take the initiative to call Qi Han and ask for help, so Qi Han simply wanted to experience this wonderful feeling for a while longer.
“You think I’m going to beg you for it?” Mo Yu sneered. “Keep dreaming, d*uchbag.”
Qi Han paid no attention to Mo Yu’s slurs. He simply smiled and asked curiously, “Why do you want to use the research lab? Are you interested in getting into the pharmaceutical business?”
“Don’t flatter yourself. I have no interest in competing with your family’s business.. My wife is interested in developing traditional Chinese medicine and healthcare products.” Mo Yu snorted arrogantly and continued, “If it weren’t for my wife, would I ask someone like you for a favor?”
