Lu An was brought from the first floor to the fourth floor by a staff member. The Starfire Trade Union had a total of four floors. When Lu An arrived at this floor, the surroundings were completely silent.
The carpet looked expensive, but it was obviously much better than the ones in the Starfire Academy's Pill Refinery Pavilion. Walking on it, one could even feel a touch from the soles of one's feet, which was very enjoyable.
The staff member walked in front, while Lu An followed behind. The fourth floor was extremely large, many times larger than the Pill Refinery Pavilion. Lu An couldn't even count the number of doors they had passed, as though the corridor had no end. After walking for a long time, the two of them finally stood in front of a door.
This door was obviously different from the other doors.
This door was extremely high class and tasteful, the other doors paled in comparison to this door. The door was engraved with beautiful carvings, above it was a painting of the sky and the ground. On the ground, there was a woman raising her head in anticipation, causing one to feel a sense of longing.
Just as Lu An was still observing, the woman turned her head and said, "We're here, you can go in yourself."
"Ah, okay." Lu An was startled, but hurriedly replied, "Thank you."
The woman smiled, and walked away, leaving Lu An alone at the door. He didn't knock on the door, but continued to observe the painting. Not knowing why, even though it was obviously filled with longing, he could feel a trace of strangeness.
He couldn't pinpoint what it was, but there was definitely something strange about it.
If it was a blessing, it wouldn't be a calamity. If it was a calamity, it couldn't be avoided. Without stopping, Lu An raised his hand and lightly knocked on the door.
Dong dong dong.
The door let out a crisp sound, which was very pleasing to the ear. Not long after Lu An knocked, a woman's voice could be heard from within.
"Come in."
Lu An took a light breath, and pushed the door open.
What entered his eyes was an extremely wide field of vision. The first thing that entered Lu An's eyes was the entire wall of windows. The entire wall was curved, and at this moment, it was wide open. The wind blew in from the outside, causing one to feel a slight chill.
Not only that, the entire wall was covered with blinds, blocking out the sunlight. As long as one gently opened the blinds, one could overlook the entire street from inside. The people outside couldn't see anything inside at all.
In front of the window in the middle of the huge room, there was a huge desk filled with letters. A woman sat behind the table, holding a letter in one hand and supporting her forehead with the other. She lowered her head and looked at it seriously. She didn't even raise her head when Lu An entered.
Lu An closed the door and looked at the woman who ignored him, feeling a little embarrassed. Her long hair covered the woman's face, so he couldn't see it. After thinking for a while, he said softly, "I'm Lu An. I'm here to pay you a visit."
As soon as he said that, the woman's shoulders visibly shook. Then, Lu An saw that the woman's slender hand that was holding her forehead gently lifted her long hair to one side. She lifted her head and looked at Lu An.
When their eyes met, Lu An was startled.
What beautiful eyes!
Lu An looked at the woman in front of him in surprise and said, "It's you?"
This woman was none other than the woman who had stopped him when he had come to the Starfire Trade Union to buy the materials for the Constitution-Enhancing Pill. He couldn't remember wrongly. Among all the women he had seen, only this woman had the appearance of the Western Regions. Her facial features were very three-dimensional and exceptionally beautiful, especially her eyes, which were clear and shrewd.
"Why isn't it me?" Liu Yi looked at the young man standing at the door with a casual smile. She put down the letter in her hand and said, "Are you surprised?"
Lu An looked at Liu Yi's calmness and felt a little nervous. No matter what, this woman's position in the Starfire Trade Union must be very high. She had called him here this time, so he was afraid that it wouldn't bode well for him.
As if she could see Lu An's nervousness, Liu Yi smiled and pointed to the sofa on the side. She said, "Don't be nervous. Sit down and talk."
Lu An frowned slightly, but he still listened to the woman's words and walked to the sofa on the side and sat down. The sofa was very comfortable, so Lu An's nervousness eased a lot.
Just as he sat down, the woman placed a cup of tea in front of him. Lu An raised his head and looked at the woman standing in front of him. Looking at the steaming tea in front of him, his heart hesitated.
"It's not poisonous." Liu Yi smiled and said, "If I wanted to kill you, it wouldn't be that troublesome."
Lu An's eyes trembled, he didn't think that this woman could so easily see through his thoughts. He reached out his hand to receive the tea, and lightly took a sip.
The bitter taste entered his mouth, but it had an extremely refreshing effect. In a moment, Lu An's spirit rose, as if he had never been more spirited than now.
The woman also took a sip, turned around and placed the teacup on her desk. She didn't return to her seat, but simply leaned against the desk, repeatedly sizing up Lu An.
The woman was very tall, her legs were very long, and her body proportions were very different from other women. Her lower body was much higher. In Lu An's knowledge, only Kong Yan belonged to this type.
There was also Fu Yu – although Fu Yu didn't wear clothes that showed her figure, but he indeed knew.
"I want to ask you to concoct the Constitution-Enhancing Pill." Without warning, Liu Yi suddenly said.
Lu An's brows tightened, the hand holding the teacup also paused for a moment. A trace of ripples appeared in the teacup, even when he placed the teacup on the table, it also trembled a little.
"Presumably Supervisor Liu misunderstood, I'm not a pharmacist." Lu An raised his head and looked at Liu Yi, calmly saying, "It was refined by my master."
However, after Liu Yi heard the exact same answer as Elder Gao, she revealed a happy smile, slightly shook her head, her long hair slightly swaying, and said, "You don't have to lie to me, you can't lie to me."
Lu An's brows tightened, took a deep breath, but once again seriously said, "I really don't know how."
"Really?" Liu Yi raised her brows, casually looking at Lu An, as if Lu An's insistence was worthless to her.
Lu An frowned, stood up and cupped his fists, saying, "I wonder why Supervisor Liu called me here?"
"What's the matter … …" Liu Yi slightly raised her head, as if thinking about something. Suddenly, a cool breeze blew from behind her, blowing her long hair up.
"There's a girl, she was picked up from the mountains by a family." Liu Yi lightly said, "This family brought her home and treated her as a servant girl, making her do the dirty and tiring work from a young age."
Lu An's body trembled, then his face changed dramatically. He looked at the woman in front of him in astonishment, suddenly turned around, and strode towards the door!
Walking to the door, Lu An grabbed the handle to open the door, but no matter how hard he tried, the door wouldn't open. This was the Starfire Trade Union, so he didn't dare to use his Fate Wheel. He couldn't help but look back at Liu Yi. He knew it was this woman's doing!
"The girl had always been hardworking and diligent. With her clever mind, she finally served the family happily. At this time, the family also discovered the girl's loyalty and wisdom, especially when the girl gave a good suggestion to the family, so the family decided to let the girl participate in the business. "
Lu An's eyes became more and more gloomy as he stared at Liu Yi. However, Liu Yi didn't seem to see Lu An's eyes, as if she was telling a story, calmly and naturally.
"Later, as the girl grew up, she made more and more contributions to the business, so the family asked her to do more and more things. In the beginning, she only intervened in the business, then she ran the first small shop independently, and finally she controlled the entire business of the family. The girl completely became the pillar of the family. "
"The family also gradually changed their view of the girl, but the girl found that no matter how much money she made, no matter how much she contributed to the family, everything she did was in vain. The family still treated her as a maid, still a servant. "
"So …" Liu Yi lowered her head, looked at Lu An, and said, "She's not happy."
"…"
Lu An frowned, stared at Liu Yi in the distance, and asked coldly, "What do you want?!"
"Nothing." Liu Yi tilted her head, looked at Lu An in the distance, and said softly with a beautiful smile, "You're a pharmacist, so I need you to work with me to destroy the Starfire Trade Union."
Thump!
Lu An's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes widened. However, looking at Liu Yi's calm eyes, Lu An also gradually calmed down, and said in a deep voice, "First of all, I'm not a pharmacist, and second, do you think the Starfire Trade Union's business can be destroyed by a pharmacist?"
"You don't need to think about the latter." Liu Yi shook her head and said, "You only need to help me refine medicine."
"I'll say it again, I'm not a pharmacist!" Lu An said coldly.
"Is that so?" Liu Yi smiled, and her smile was especially beautiful against the light, and said softly, "What if your good friend Gao Dashan was poisoned at this moment?"
