Upon hearing Guo Liang's blunt mockery, Hu Xiaobei glanced at him!

After sizing him up several times, Hu Xiaobei let out a faint smile and then spoke lightly, "Had you heard about me before? It seems my fame isn't too shabby! What a pity, though, I'd never heard your name before. By the way, what was it again? Goudan?"

Being directly counter-mocked by Hu Xiaobei, Guo Liang's face turned extremely ugly.

Like someone with constipation, he quickly let out a roar, "Bastard, you're just a trash talker, and soon, I'll make sure you die a hideous death!"

"Well, I'll be waiting, but I don't think you'll have the chance, Goudan!"

"My name is Guo Liang, remember that well!"

"Sure, I've got it down, Goudan!"

Seeing Hu Xiaobei seriously calling out 'Goudan,' Guo Liang was so angry he felt like spitting blood.

Knowing he couldn't outtalk Hu Xiaobei, he cast a poisoned glance at Hu Xiaobei before turning away and closing his eyes to rest.

...

Not far away, Lin Yongqiang watched Guo Liang and Hu Xiaobei bickering, with a smirk on his face.

Previously, Lin Yongqiang had planned to say a few words to Hu Xiaobei, but later he completely abandoned the idea. Because he felt that Hu Xiaobei really wasn't qualified to speak with him...

Proudly glancing at Hu Xiaobei, Lin Yongqiang mocked disdainfully, "Hu Xiaobei, I don't know how you managed to show up here, but from now on, your damn streak of luck is thoroughly over. Today, I'll make you lose face in front of Governor Sun. I really want to see how you can still have the face to hang around here after that."

Lin Yongqiang knew that Guo Liang was the company's top botanist!

So he could definitely save the sick orchid.

As long as he actually managed to revive the sick orchid, he wouldn't only be able to mock Hu Xiaobei like crazy but also make a connection with the governor. Then, expanding his enterprise would become even simpler...

"At that time, the company's strength will surely reach a new level!"

Thinking so, Lin Yongqiang was filled with excitement...

While he was daydreaming, Sun Fuan and his father carefully moved the orchid out.

At that instant, all the attention in the room converged on it...

At that instant, everyone knew it was no ordinary plant, because just its appearance was eye-catching.

"Mutated orchid!"

As everyone was impressed, Hu Xiaobei made a clear judgment.

Orchids were valuable, mutated orchids even more so; thus, Hu Xiaobei knew that although it looked unassuming, if sold, it would be worth at least a few million...

Just as Hu Xiaobei formed his initial assessment, the two men cautiously placed it on the ground!

As Hu Xiaobei was about to take a closer look, he noticed Guo Liang quickly moving forward.

"Quite eager, aren't we!"

After such a light mockery, Hu Xiaobei also leisurely made his way over.

Seeing Hu Xiaobei and Guo Liang seriously evaluating the plant, nobody in the room spoke...

They were concerned about disturbing Hu Xiaobei and Guo Liang, so at the moment, they were just watching with a bit of anxiety. Everyone understood that whether the orchid could be cured now depended on them.

Though confident in Guo Liang, Lin Yongqiang was still quite tense, knowing that the success of this attempt meant a lot.

...

"This mutated orchid really is gravely ill, isn't it!"

Hu Xiaobei only took one glance and made such a judgment. Because after a slight X-ray inspection, he found that almost all the vital energy within its branches and stems had vanished.

"It looks like it's going to take a bit of effort to fully recover it!"

As Hu Xiaobei was thinking this, he heard Guo Liang's voice.

"Governor Sun, I'm truly sorry. The problem with this mutated orchid is very serious, and I genuinely have no solution."

"This..."

Lin Yongqiang was stunned!

He hadn't expected Guo Liang to give up just after a brief look, especially to declare that he couldn't do anything about it!

After his mouth twitched fiercely, he hurried over to Guo Liang's side and urgently said, "Guo Liang, how... how can you say that? Did you examine it properly?"

Hearing Lin Yongqiang's bewildered question, Guo Liang knew that Lin Yongqiang was indeed desperate!

He didn't rush to respond but instead sighed silently.

Guo Liang wasn't a fool, so naturally, he'd be happy to establish a connection with Sun Fuan.

So, previously, Guo Liang did want to revive it directly.

But after a thorough examination, he found that the orchid's vital energy was all but gone. In such a state, even if he exerted all his effort, it would be pointless.

Taking a deep breath, he collected his thoughts, leaned in close to Lin Yongqiang, and whispered, "Chairman Lin, if it were possible, I'd certainly revive it, but it's simply not feasible. Naturally, I can't save it, and no one else can either, so you can rest assured."

Hearing this, although Lin Yongqiang still looked displeased, his expression had eased somewhat from before.

He glanced at Hu Xiaobei, who was still seriously examining the orchid, stepped forward, and asked solemnly, "Is that true? There's no possibility that Hu Xiaobei could save it?"

Upon hearing Lin Yongqiang's anxious question, Guo Liang glanced at Hu Xiaobei and said with a mocking tone, "Yes, Chairman Lin, that idiot doesn't stand a chance of reviving it! I bet he doesn't even know what's wrong with the orchid!"

After such mockery, Guo Liang paused for a moment, then quickly, pointing to the orchid, said, "Chairman Lin, if you look carefully at that orchid, its leaves might seem okay, but on closer inspection, you'll notice the insides of the leaves turning black. That's a symptom of malnutrition. In no more than three days, it will completely wither."

"I see!"

Lin Yongqiang nodded with some realization, then looked closely at the robust orchid, and sure enough, he noticed the issue Guo Liang mentioned.

"It looks like it really can't be saved!"

Muttering to himself, Lin Yongqiang looked at Hu Xiaobei and saw he was still examining the orchid with a full face of mockery...

...

"Is there really no hope?"

Sun Fuan sighed silently upon hearing Guo Liang's answer.

The next moment, he turned his gaze to Hu Xiaobei, who was still focused on the orchid, and suddenly, Sun Fuan's eyes brightened.

Because he saw that Hu Xiaobei had an expression full of confidence!

"Could he possibly have a way?"

Thinking this, Sun Fuan took a deep breath and quickly asked, "Xiaobei, can... can you cure this sick orchid?"
