“That’s right, Miss Song is indeed smart!” Gu Hai rubbed his hands together, excitement clear in his eyes. NewRay would soon belong to Xu Wen, and once Xu Wen married Gu Zhuo, all of it would essentially belong to his beloved son.

“Anyway, Miss Song is also working on a new formula. NewRay had already announced plans to sell the same medication as us, and their prices are significantly lower. This will definitely impact our company’s sales,” Gu Hai, thinking himself clever, believed this cooperation was beneficial.

“Instead of letting them affect our sales, it’s better to cooperate. If we give them the formula, they will give us a 30% share of the sales revenue.” What Gu Hai didn’t mention was that NewRay had promised him a 10% cut of the profits if he facilitated the deal.

As just a shareholder of the Gu Corporation, even if Gu Corporation Pharmaceuticals made billions annually, he wouldn’t receive even a billion. But with NewRay, if they earned ten billion a year, he’d get a billion. Naturally, he preferred to collaborate with other companies.

Gu Chen saw through his intentions. “Hmph, Second Uncle, you really know how to calculate. Gu Corporation Pharmaceuticals spent years and billions on R&D for the new drug, and now you want to hand over the formula to NewRay with just a word?”

“How is it handing over? It’s cooperation!” Gu Hai hurriedly explained. “They are paying us, and we get a commission.”

Song Fan couldn’t help but laugh. “Gu Corporation Pharmaceuticals makes ten dollars a bottle selling the drug themselves. Cooperating with NewRay means making only three dollars a bottle. Why should we collaborate with NewRay? Is it charity?”

Gu Hai’s face turned red from being ridiculed by the juniors, but he continued to argue, “You have a new drug in development, and the old drug formula will be obsolete. It’s better to let NewRay make money for us. It’s a win-win situation!”

“Developing new drugs takes a long time! You think it’s like pulling out a bunch of carrots from the ground?” Jiang Man, timidly hiding behind Song Fan, retorted sharply.

She detested those who didn’t understand research yet trampled on their efforts. Finally, Fang Si was gone, but now Gu Hai was here. Jiang Man felt anger rise just by looking at him.

Seeing her analogy, Song Fan chuckled silently. No wonder she was Zhao Min’s roommate—they both had a knack for biting remarks.

Gu Hai’s face was now flushed. “Who do you think you are? I am a shareholder of the company. I have a say!”

He thought he could first win over Song Fan, thinking she was just a young girl who knew nothing about business. However, he hadn’t anticipated the presence of others in the lab, especially Gu Chen.

But Song Fan interrupted him, “Found it! The car that kidnapped Zhao Min has been located!”

Song Fan projected the screenshot from the video onto the display. “The person in the car is Fang Si. I also found several payments from NewRay to her, totaling over five million. It seems the formula theft last time came from her.”

Her voice was loud, intentionally meant for Gu Hai to hear. Gu Hai only knew about the previous incident in the lab but didn’t realize the extent of the conspiracy.

While he wanted to make money, NewRay stealing the formula was different. If NewRay had the formula, there was no way they would give him a commission.

Gu Chen cast a cold glance at him, causing Gu Hai to tremble. He quickly made an excuse to leave the lab. Getting involved in stealing company secrets could lead to his expulsion from the board for harming all shareholders’ interests.

“Fang Si’s phone is off. There’s no way to trace it.” Song Fan frowned, typing rapidly on the computer. “I need to hack into the traffic department’s system. If I can find the car, I can find her.”

“Don’t hack the system. I’ll handle this,” Gu Chen immediately stopped her, then solemnly said, “This is the capital.”

Song Fan understood his point. Hacking a government system in a national center would inevitably lead to being tracked down. She nodded in agreement.

Gu Chen quickly contacted people at the police station to report the kidnapping. With the Gu Corporation’s pressure, the police would surely find Zhao Min soon.

With only Song Fan and Jiang Man left in the lab, Jiang Man nervously pulled out a notebook from her backpack. “Miss Song, Wu Yong left this with me and Zhao Min before he got into trouble. He said not to show it to anyone, not even those at Gu Corporation Pharmaceuticals.”

Song Fan didn’t take the notebook right away but looked at Jiang Man in surprise.

Jiang Man hurriedly explained, “Wu Yong said besides the two of us, he only trusted you. I trust you too! See if this can help.”
