ABCFWGR Chapter 125: Even if Tied Up, I Must Bring Him Back

"Here!"

Wu Anqi hid her emotions and handed over the box of medicine.

Gu Chen took it, extracted the Bing Ji Yu Gu Pill from within, and brought it to his nose for a sniff.

"The medicinal properties are mostly correct, but the fragrance needs adjustment. With such a strong herbal smell, would you be willing to take it?" 

"Although we are a pharmaceutical company, our products are aimed at a broad female audience. We don't want them to feel burdened by the idea of taking medicine. They should accept it as they do with face masks and cleansers, without constantly being reminded that they are medicating." Gu Chen returned the pill to its box.

Upon hearing this, Wu Anqi pondered seriously. He had a point.

She even thought that if Gu Chen managed the company with dedication, he could elevate Fu Liu Pharmaceuticals to new heights.

The product was one aspect, but more importantly, his understanding of user psychology could drive the company's success.

Just like a neighboring province's tech company, which became a leading tech giant in Daxia by focusing on details to outdo competitors.

"Okay, I understand. I'll have them make improvements as soon as I return," Wu Anqi nodded seriously.

Seeing that she hadn't left after speaking, Gu Chen asked curiously, "Is there something else?"

"Well… yes." Wu Anqi blinked her pretty eyes.

"Either there is or there isn't. What do you mean 'well, yes'?" Gu Chen didn't indulge her at all.

Wu Anqi pouted in grievance, tugging at Gu Chen's sleeve cautiously, "Are you still mad at me?"

Her pitiful look made it hard to scold her.

"You're overthinking. I'm not mad at you," Gu Chen said with a cold face.

In reality, his anger had dissipated. In retrospect, he couldn't fully blame Wu Anqi. Her intentions were good; she just crossed a line with him.

"Really?" Wu Anqi's face lit up with a radiant smile.

"Boiled!" Gu Chen glared at her.

In response, Wu Anqi didn't get angry. Instead, she breathed a long sigh of relief. At least she could be sure that Gu Chen had forgiven her. She then plopped onto the bed, looking up at Gu Chen with a cheeky smile.

"I've been working overtime lately, and I'm exhausted and losing weight. Finally, I can take a break. Let me stay here for a while."

She wasn't exaggerating.

Ever since Gu Chen got mad at her, she'd been as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. After much contemplation, she decided that only the Bing Ji Yu Gu Pill could help re-establish contact with Gu Chen.

Because of this, nearly the entire research department had to work overtime with her. The researchers' heads were almost driven mad by her constant urging.

In such a short time, producing quality samples of Bing Ji Yu Gu Pill was largely thanks to her efforts.

"Stay if you want."

From the dark circles under her eyes, Gu Chen guessed what had happened. He didn't feel pity, but he didn't want to bully her either.

"Then I won't be polite. I'll take a nap!"

Wu Anqi grinned, lay down on the bed, and soon there were faint snores.

"Sigh!"

Gu Chen sighed helplessly. Seeing her sleeping in an awkward position, he gently picked her up to place her on the pillow.

Suddenly, Wu Anqi opened her eyes in a daze. Seeing it was Gu Chen, she smiled foolishly, then her expression dimmed, and she pouted, "Gu Chen, please don't be mad at me, okay?"

"Have a good rest. I'm not angry anymore," Gu Chen gently laid her down.

In her half-asleep state, Wu Anqi, driven by an unknown surge of courage, wrapped her arms around Gu Chen's neck, pouted, and planted a kiss on his lips. Then she giggled and said, "I'm marking you as mine. You can't get mad at me anymore..."

She fell asleep again, her actions entirely subconscious.

Gu Chen stood stiffly by the bed, touching his lips where they were still damp. Her lips were soft and tender.

Meanwhile...

In the living room of the Chen family's old residence, three generations of the Chen family were gathered.

They had been waiting for days for the He family's retaliation, but nothing happened. Upon investigation, they learned that the He family had provoked a powerful figure and were struggling to protect themselves.

Little did they know, the He family had pledged allegiance to this powerful figure, stabilizing their situation.

What they didn't know was that this powerful figure was none other than Gu Chen.

Fortunately, Gu Chen never considered them a threat. Otherwise, with just a word from Gu Chen, the He family would have spared no effort to attack them.

"Dad, the company renovations are almost done. We can resume normal operations anytime," Chen Wantai reported.

Chen Youde nodded, his voice stern, "It's been almost a week. Have you contacted Yuwei?"

"Yuwei's phone has been off. I can't reach her," Chen Wantai said with a troubled expression.

Bang!

Chen Youde slammed his hand on the table in anger, "Nonsense! This is ridiculous! She's not a little girl anymore; she's the president of Chen Group. It's one thing to have a tantrum now and then, but to just walk away? Does she expect me to step in myself?"

You forced her to this point!

Chen Wantai didn't dare say that aloud. Instead, he quickly tried to calm his father's anger, "Dad, please calm down. Take care of your health. I'll find a way to contact Yuwei soon. She isn't unreasonable, just a bit upset right now."

"It better be that way!" Chen Youde huffed.

At this moment, Chen Qianchuan's eyes darted around, and he said, "Dad, I have a way to quickly get in touch with Yuwei."

"What could you possibly do?" Chen Youde said skeptically.

"Dad, don't underestimate me. I know you and my brother look down on me because of the shares issue, but I've realized my mistake and I'm trying to make amends," Chen Qianchuan protested.

"Our family was almost ruined by you, and you still have the nerve to mention it?" Chen Youde's anger flared up again.

Seeing that his father and brother were about to argue, Chen Wantai quickly intervened, "Dad, why don't we hear him out? He knows a lot of people, and he might actually have a solution."

Chen Youde grunted and looked away without saying a word.

"It's actually very simple. Even though Yuwei's phone is off, she still needs a place to stay. I happen to know a friend who can check all the hotel records in the city," Chen Qianchuan hinted.

This friend was someone he had met after being caught having an affair with a female subordinate. After being beaten up by her husband, he got to know this friend to erase his hotel records and to avoid being discovered by He Xiumei.

"This sounds like a good idea. I think it could work," Chen Wantai said happily.

He was not only eager for Chen Yuwei to return to manage the group but also genuinely worried about his daughter.

Chen Youde glanced at Chen Qianchuan and grudgingly admitted, "Alright, this is actually helpful. Contact your friend right away. Once you confirm her location, go with your brother and bring her back."

"If she dares to resist, tie her up if you must. We can't let her throw any more tantrums!"
