Chapter: 6398

Drinking wine might also be a surge of warmth, but this medicinal wine was an entirely different sensation - warm and nourishing. After drinking it, Steve felt like every pore on his body was especially relaxed.

After all, it's the enhanced version of the blood-stopping and heart-calming pill that had been refined through alchemy, with effects that surpassed the original by at least double. So, this one-quarter dose could at least help Steve recover to his state two years ago.

This sudden realization made him feel the incredible efficacy of the medicine, making him less tired and not feeling any discomfort in his waist, back, or buttocks. Even his eyes looked better than before - as if his presbyopia had undergone a noticeable improvement.

In short, he felt like a new person!

Looking at Zhou Liangyun across from him, Steve noticed that his face was much rosier than earlier, with wrinkles significantly reduced.

As he thought about the medicinal effects of what Leaf Chen had drunk being double what he had, Steve's heart was filled with envy.

It was also at this moment that Steve couldn't help but exclaim: "Mr. Leaf... I finally understand why my father was so keen on your elixir... This... this isn't medicine, it's flowing back time!"

Leaf Chen smiled and said: "Steve, remember one principle - whoever lives longest is the true winner. If you're lucky, your life has only just begun, with many years to come and endless possibilities ahead."

Steve quickly got up and bowed deeply to Leaf Chen: "Leaf Mr. said, hoping I will have the opportunity in the future to often accompany Leaf Mr., and at all times listen to Leaf Mr.'s teachings!"

...

When Leaf Chen, Zhou Liangyun, and Steve were exchanging cups, Xiao Changkun found a cheap inn nearby and stayed there.

He didn't dare let his daughter-in-law know he was going back home, nor could he afford to spend more money on accommodation, so he could only stay at the inn for one night, then leave early tomorrow morning to fly back to Dubai and meet with Ma Ran.

After washing himself in the stinky bathroom, Xiao Changkun lay down on the old, worn-out bed, his tears again overwhelming him, streaming down his face.

He had missed many good opportunities throughout his life; one was Han Meiqing, and the other was the golden Buddha of Northern Song Dynasty.

In addition to that, he carefully reviewed everything in his life, seeming like he hadn't grabbed onto any good opportunities.

Despite managing to get into the calligraphy association and becoming a deputy head, he had also been played by himself.

Now, he still needed to lie on the bed, holding his phone to write a resignation email to Pei Wengong, although he knew that writing a resignation email was just going through the motions, stating his attitude, and leaving some space for Pei Wengong to maneuver for him.

Meanwhile, Pei Wengong at home wasn't idle; through various channels, he found Hong Wu's phone number.

He hesitated for a while, and still decided to call Hong Wu.

To him, he was Shao Changkun's superior, and Shao Changkun had a good relationship with Hong Wu. Since he was now shouldering pressure due to dealing with Shao Changkun, it was reasonable to notify Hong Wu beforehand; otherwise, if Hong Wu were to turn around and blame him, wouldn't that be unfair?

He needed to explain things clearly to Hong Wu; his handling of Shao Changkun was unavoidable, but considering Hong Wu's face and the relationship between himself and Shao Changkun, he would do his best to secure a deputy head position for Shao Changkun.

Hong Wu received an unfamiliar call and asked cautiously, "Who is this?"

Pei Wengong hurriedly humbly said, "Hello, please ask if this is Hong Wu?"

"Yes, it is." Hong Wu nodded and asked him, "Who are you? What business do you have with me?"

Pei Wengong quickly explained, "Good day, Hong Wu. I'm the old Pei from our calligraphy association, someone we've met before." JrNovels.com
