Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge-Chapter 49 You Group_1

Of course, she also had to set up a production facility to mass-produce low-grade Medicinal Pills; she couldn’t expose the existence of her space because of this, nor could she attract undue attention.

She planned to first promote three types of patent medicines nationwide: the Youth-preserving Pill, Health Pill, and antiseptic medicine. The Youth-preserving Pill, targeting a broad female demographic, could facilitate the timely opening of beauty stores under the You Family umbrella. It seemed that after returning to Beijing, she would have to create a proper plan and strategize the future of the Qing Gang and the You Group. She wanted the You Group to gradually replace the Shen Family, step by step.

She was determined to thoroughly crush Shen Cheng and Shen Qian under her feet.

After leaving the Qing Gang, Shangguan You didn’t head straight home. Instead, she pulled the perverted doctor along, moving swiftly through the night. Taking advantage of the fact that there was still time, she wanted to learn more about the situations of the other gangs in B City, and Zhong Mingyang was the best candidate for that.

The wharf was pitch-black; only the sound of waves crashing against it could be heard. Shangguan You and Zhong Mingyang’s figures carefully concealed themselves in the shadows. Shangguan You’s brows lifted slightly. Could this pitch-black wharf really be where they conduct transactions?

In B City, the two dominant local powers were the Feilong Gang and the Feihu Gang. These two gangs had the largest numbers and the widest territories, dealing in arms and drugs.

"Young Miss, this is Feilong Gang territory. There’s an arms deal tonight, supposedly involving millions worth of weapons," Zhong Mingyang, who was very well-informed about such news, explained softly, seeing Shangguan You’s puzzled look.

In the pitch-black night, he couldn’t see the expression on Shangguan You’s face, but he could smell the faint lotus fragrance emanating from her. When he caught sight of her eyes, shining as bright as stars, Zhong Mingyang’s heart skipped a beat, then began to race.

"They’re here!" Shangguan You whispered sharply, pulling Zhong Mingyang as they quickly hid. Simultaneously, a cruise ship appeared on the dark sea, slowly approaching the shore through the night.

At the same time, a convoy of more than ten cars sped from a distance toward the shore. As the vehicles reached the coast and stopped, a group of armed men in black stepped out, spreading out to cover all directions. There were over a hundred of them.

Zhong Mingyang’s body trembled slightly. He stood motionless, watching the scene unfold before him, sweat dripping continuously from his forehead. He hadn’t expected that this occasional visit would reveal such a significant operation; everyone was armed, and the slightest misstep could mean their lives would be over.

Suddenly, a pair of soft hands gently grasped his tense ones, and a pair of playful eyes glanced over. The touch, along with the sight of her calm gaze, instantly swept away the turmoil in Zhong Mingyang’s heart. He wasn’t alone now; she was with him. He had to protect the Young Miss, so he absolutely had to calm down.

He nodded at Shangguan You and then quietly concealed himself again.

The cruise ship had docked. From one of the cars in the middle of the convoy, a man in his twenties emerged—Long Hua, one of the leaders of the Feilong Gang. With a wave of his hands, the men in black behind him began moving about a dozen wooden crates from the cars at the rear. Box by box, they were loaded onto the cruise ship.

A blond, blue-eyed man disembarked from the cruise ship and came over with a smile to shake hands with Long Hua. Two briefcases were opened, revealing stacks of bright red banknotes inside—a full five million.

Long Hua gestured again, and his men immediately stepped forward to count the money, close the briefcases, and carry them off. The entire sequence was executed in one smooth motion; clearly, they had done this many times before.

The two men shook hands again with smiles, the transaction successful.

Shangguan You’s profound eyes coldly observed the unfolding scene. Her eyes darted about as a thought struck her. Earning money seems too easy. Just like that, a dozen crates mean a sure five million profit. If I were to pull a ’black eats black’ maneuver and seize all these weapons, the Qing Gang’s strength would increase significantly. Wouldn’t that be like adding wings to a tiger?

"Wait here for me; I’ll be right back," Shangguan You whispered to Zhong Mingyang, her breath as fragrant as an orchid, then her white figure leaped out like a whirlwind. Zhong Mingyang wanted to stop her, but it was too late. He watched helplessly as she disappeared into the night.

With a flicker, Shangguan You vanished into her space. She coldly watched the blond man wave to Long Hua before he walked into the ship’s cabin with a smile to inspect the firearms. After a thorough check confirmed there were no issues, the blond man nodded, squinting slightly in satisfaction. With a wave of his hand, he locked the door and walked out.

The continuous BEEPING of an engine indicated the cruise ship had already moved some distance away. Seeing the now-empty cabin, Shangguan You’s figure flashed, her white silhouette appearing inside. A slight smile touched her lips as she swept all dozen crates of firearms into her space. Then, patting her hands, she leaped out the window, traversing the water as if walking on waves, heading for the shore.

Zhong Mingyang was waiting anxiously on the shore. As he watched that distant figure approach, walking on the waves, his mouth formed an ’O’ shape and wouldn’t close. This was simply too incredible!

A scene that should only appear on television was unfolding live before his very eyes.

Shangguan You darted directly to Zhong Mingyang’s side and patted his shoulder, snapping the perverted doctor out of his daze.

"Young Miss, you... you can really fly?" Zhong Mingyang stuttered, his eyes filled with adoration as he looked at Shangguan You. If Shangguan You had initially won him over with her cunning methods, the Shangguan You before him now left him utterly astonished and filled with even greater admiration.

"Mm," Shangguan You responded faintly, glancing at Zhong Mingyang.

"Young Miss, can you... can you teach me? I am willing to follow you to the death and will never betray you!" Zhong Mingyang exclaimed. Walking on water—that was a dream cherished by everyone! He had always thought it was nothing more than a fantasy, but he never imagined he would witness it for real. Now that he had, he certainly wouldn’t let such an opportunity slip by.

"Mm. One pill a day, for now. First, improve your constitution, then you can slowly begin to cultivate." Shangguan You took a bottle of Jade Dew Pills from her robes and tossed it to Zhong Mingyang. These pills could strengthen the body and also increase one’s Inner Strength. Besides, she wasn’t worried about Zhong Mingyang betraying her.

"Thank you, Young Miss!" Zhong Mingyang exclaimed. He opened the bottle, and a faint, pleasant fragrance wafted out. He took out a pill and popped it directly into his mouth. Immediately, a warm current flowed through his body. This is truly amazing stuff! If I ate them all at once, could I reach the Young Miss’s level in one go? Zhong Mingyang wondered wistfully.
