In a VIP ward of the Third Daykarta Hospital, Daykarta City.
As soon as Garrett Mo opened his eyes, he found that his wife, Josephine Yan, was sitting beside him and looking through the documents.
Josephine was known as the most beautiful businesswoman in Daykarta City. Not only did she have an exquisite appearance, but she also held an aloof disposition that was cultivated from being the President of a company for years. But this kind of aura just made her even more attractive.
The goddess with a nice hour-glass figure. She was no one but Garrett's wife.
"I'm sorry for the trouble."
Lying on the sickbed, Garrett let out a sigh and said to his wife.
Ever since he married her, his life had never been smooth sailing.
First, Josephine's medicine company had been losing money, and he was also in constant trouble. He either received threats or was beaten by hooligans for no reason. He had been sent to the hospital three times.
This time, the injury seemed to be the most one. His head was wrapped in thick gauze, and the back of his head swelled up as if it had been patched.
"Since you're awake, I'll take my leave. You keep the money for the hospital. I'll go back to the company first."
Josephine stood up and walked out of the ward with a poker face, leaving Garrett a perfect back.
"Alas, I've been living a life like a kept man."
Garrett sighed. In fact, the Yan family had been raising him for 20 years. When he was four years old, he had been adopted by his current father-in-law, Stanley Yan. Stanley was his father's comrade-in-arms.
He had long wanted to leave the Yan family to make a living, but Stanley strongly opposed it. In the end, in order to make Garrett stay in the Yan family, he married his daughter to Garrett.
In this way, Garrett became a matrilocal son-in-law. He was also envied by countless rich second generations in Daykarta City!
Garrett sighed again and recalled carefully. He still remembered that he had been taken to an abandoned factory by a group of people. First, they beat him up, and then they seemed to hit him on the head with an iron rod. It was at that moment that Garrett became unconscious.
Now when he waked up, he felt that he was never in such a good state!
It was as if he had taken a magic tonic!
"So weird. It hurt like hell the last few times in the hospital. Why am I so energetic this time..."
"What's this? My jade pendant?"
Garrett found that there was a plastic bag on the bedside table, which contained a few pieces of jade.
This was the only relic Garrett's father left for him. It was a dragon-shaped jade pendant.
"Father..."
Said Garrett in a low voice. He grabbed the bad into his hands. This thing had been with him for twenty years, but now it was broken.
Sitting on the bed, he poured the pieces of jade onto his palm, trying to fix them.
"Sorry, dad. I'm such a useless man. I can't even keep your jade pendant!"
Garrett helplessly clenched the pieces of the jade pendant. Suddenly, he felt a heat in his palm. He hurriedly opened his hand and found that the pieces of the jade pendant were shining!
"What's this?"
Along with this stream of heat, there was a stream of energy that entered his body!
Countless pieces of information flooded into his mind!
"Ah... "
Garrett let out a painful cry. Soon, the feeling of having a severe headache was replaced by shock.
The secret manuals such as "Dragon Body Cultivation Method", "Herbal Medicine of Divine Farmer", "Secrets of Divination" and so on flashed in front of his eyes like slides.
"What is this? A secret manual?"
Garrett had read all kinds of novels, but he didn't expect that he, a matrilocal son-in-law, would have such a chance one day!
At this time, a stream of energy was circulating in his body. He felt that he could kill a lion with one punch!
"Hehe, as an old saying goes, 'Those who survive a catastrophe are bound to have good fortune later on.'"
Garrett touched the back of his head and found that his injury had long been cured!
"Awesome! Is this the legendary Qi?"
He sat cross-legged on the bed and tried to operate the "Dragon Body Cultivation Method". He discovered that the energy within his body was quickly converted into Qi, and then it entered his Elixir Field and began to pour out a steady stream of energy to his whole body.
Not only this manual, but Garrett also carefully studied the "Herbal Medicine of Divine Farmer" and the "Secrets of Divination".
After all, the Yan family's business was about medical herbs. If he wanted to help Stanley and Josephine, this was simply a godsend.
Not to mention the Secrets of Divination, who didn't want to predict the future for pursuing good fortune and avoiding disaster?
"It's really interesting. I've predicted that Josephine will lose her money soon..."
Garrett focused to predict something, and he really felt a hint from heaven. He hurriedly got out of bed, going to Josephine's company to tell her.
"Why is there a paper..."
Walking to the door, he saw a piece of paper on the ground. Garrett picked it up and found that it was about the financial statement. Probably, this was dropped from Josephine's folder.
"The income in the first half of the year... 10 million in debt?"
"It's impossible. Asclepius Medical is losing such a large sum of money?!"
"My prediction was right... I have to go to the company to help her quickly!"
In all fairness, the fact that Josephine, the extremely ambitious female CEO, had repeatedly come to visit him at her work time. This was enough to make him feel grateful.
Even if it was just a little help from others, you should return the favor with all you can when others are in need. What's more, the Yan family had sponsored him for 20 years.
Without going through the discharge formalities, Garrett checked that he was not wearing a hospital uniform, and directly took a taxi to Asclepius Medical Inc.
As soon as he entered the security room, Garrett found out that the guy he hated the most in this company was sitting there, along with his harsh voice sounded.
"Hey, Mr. Mo. Beaten by someone again? You've been to the hospital three times in a month!"
The security captain, Willy Zhang, was stretching his legs on the table, almost touching Garrett's Mug. While drinking tea, he was staring at Garrett carefully with his narrow eyes.
Garrett had been working as a security guard in the Asclepius Medical Inc. Although people in the company all knew that their president has a good-for-nothing husband, no one dared to speak ill of him face to face.
However, this guy was an exception. He was a relative of Garrett's mother-in-law, Belinda. So he was bold to mock Garrett.
"Hey dude, if you skip work again for no reason, you will not have your salary this month!"
"It's none of your business."
Garrett glanced at Willy. He wanted to slap him, but considering Willy was sort of his relative, he gave it up. Then he took a careful look at Willy's face. Garrett frowned and wanted to remind him that there was a bloody disaster recently. But when he thought that Willy's bossy behaviors in front of him, Garrett didn't speak it out.
"Ring, ring, ring..."
The phone in the security room rang, which attracted Garrett's attention.
"Hello, this is the security room..."
Garrett was always the one who did such things as running errands or answering the phone.
"Someone come here! There's a quarrel in the president's office, and they're about to fight!"
The secretary's panicked voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I'll be right there!"
Garrett dropped the phone and ran out of the security room like a gust of wind.
"F**k, when did this kid run so fast?"
Willy muttered.
