After listening to Frilank's tirade, Tadina and Leiji exchanged glances, unsure how to comfort their superior.
"Director, please calm your anger!"
After a while, Leiji stepped forward and said, "I don't think I can sue Cheng Xiaofan!"
Frilank roared angrily, "He cheated me out of my money and my people. Why can't I sue him?"
Leiji said, "Mr. Frilank, I want to remind you that the formulas and technologies Cheng Xiaofan provided to you are real and effective. The problem lies only with the happy fruit seeds."
"You mean he faked the seeds?" Frilank eagerly pressed.
Leiji replied, "No, the seeds are genuine. It's just that these happy fruit seeds are not suitable for planting on our island of Great Britain."
"According to the latest assessment from our technical department, once they are in a different location, the fruits produced lose their special active substances."
"Because of this, the happy wine we brewed has the same taste as Cheng Xiaofan's, but lacks the cancer-curing effect!"
She continued, "Mr. Frilank, as for Teresa, that was her personal choice. As long as Cheng Xiaofan didn't force her, we couldn't prevent it."
"I can only tell you with great regret that if we go to court, we will definitely lose!"
Leiji was not only Frilank's assistant but also an important legal advisor for this life science research institute.
Hearing this, Frilank's face turned purple with anger. "Are we just going to swallow our pride and suffer in silence?"
"That's the only way!" Leiji said.
Frilank turned his pleading gaze to Tadina, asking, "My dear Tadina, you are always so resourceful. What are your thoughts on this matter?"
Tadina shrugged her shoulders, spread her hands, and shook her head. "I'm sorry, Mr. Frilank, my opinion is the same as Leiji's. Only fools would think of going to court."
"Based on the current situation, I can't think of a good way to help you!"
"..." Frilank rolled his eyes in anger.
He hadn't expected that not only would he not get any good advice from Tadina, but he would also be labeled a fool by her!
To just let Cheng Xiaofan go?
Frilank found it unbearable.
But what could he do?
"You both leave. Let me be alone for a while!" Frilank impatiently shooed away his two beautiful assistants.
Aside from Tadina and Leiji, they exchanged glances and then retreated from Frilank's office.
"He deserves it. Who told him to be devious and let Cheng Xiaofan exploit his weakness!" Tadina sneered.
Leiji chuckled and said, "Frikland always liked to scheme against others. I never thought he'd be the one to be schemed against."
Tadina said, "I remember someone saying that that Chinese peasant Cheng Xiaofan is a powerful divine being, not someone ordinary people can deal with."
Leiji laughed, "I really wish I had the chance to meet him. I can't imagine how a proud woman like Teresa would willingly stay in a Chinese village."

The appearance of the little Boer goats also attracted the thirty-six chestnut horses, which emerged from the lake and circled the goats.
After all, these were the master's free-ranging animals, and the chestnut horses felt it was their duty to look after the cute little goats. 138 Reading Network
After having lunch with Ye Shisan, Cheng Xiaofan was about to head back when his heart suddenly skipped a beat, as if something had happened to Little White Dragon in the center of the lake.
Whoosh!
He immediately leaped onto a small boat and propelled himself towards the center of the lake.
Arriving at the exit of the underground river beneath the lake, Cheng Xiaofan saw Little White Dragon confronting a sea turtle underwater.
The sea turtle was as large as a dining table that could seat twenty people.
Its diameter was estimated to be over two meters, and its body emanated a strong aura of ferocity.
Its flat, hemispherical shell was covered in golden star-like spots that shimmered dazzlingly in the lake water.
Roar!
The sea turtle continuously let out fierce roars at Little White Dragon.
Of course, these weren't true roars, but rather sounds of air exchange underwater.
Nonetheless, they were undoubtedly more savage and terrifying than the roars of any wild beast.
With the sea turtle's roars, a fearsome aura spread out from its body.
Little White Dragon lunged forward and bit its neck.
The sea turtle, however, flipped its body, its four claws lashing out at Little White Dragon.
The claws were extremely sharp, quickly leaving several bloody gashes on Little White Dragon's body.
In unbearable pain, Little White Dragon released its bite.
Cheng Xiaofan saw that Little White Dragon was completely unable to resist the fierce sea turtle. If it continued to struggle, it would surely be crushed to death.
This was not Little White Dragon's fault.
It had only recently transformed into a dragon from the crystallized pill of the Great White Python, and its entire body was very weak. Facing the ferocious and overbearing sea turtle, it was no match.
Clearly, the sea turtle had some dragon aura on it. Its sole intention now was to kill Little White Dragon and devour it to enhance its own energy.
Cheng Xiaofan would certainly not let its plan succeed.
Whoosh!
He waved his hand, and a stream of water shot out like an arrow towards the sea turtle's head at the bottom of the lake.
The sea turtle's body immediately trembled, and a flicker of fear flashed in its eyes.
As it looked up in confusion, the water arrow struck its head.
It flipped over in the water and lay there, twitching uncontrollably.
"Quick, bite off its neck and drain its vital blood!" Cheng Xiaofan commanded Little White Dragon with his spiritual sense.
Yes!
Master!
Little White Dragon finally realized that it was its master who had come to its rescue.
It pounced forward and, before the sea turtle had completely died, bit off its neck and began to drink its blood greedily.
In Cheng Xiaofan's eyes, as Little White Dragon continuously drank the sea turtle's blood, its aura grew much stronger.
Before long, Little White Dragon had drained all the blood from the sea turtle.
Hiss!
Little White Dragon smacked its lips with satisfaction.
Master, the sea turtle's blood is fragrant and delicious, truly wonderful to drink.
Thank you, Master, for helping me kill this sea turtle.
This sea turtle was truly ferocious; I was almost eaten by it.
Cheng Xiaofan was too lazy to dally with Little White Dragon. He waved his hand slightly, and the giant sea turtle was moved into his spatial realm.
Tonight, there would be delicious food.
"Little White Dragon, remember this: I helped you today, but that doesn't mean I'll help you every time. From now on, you need to be strong, cultivate diligently here, and try to resolve any enemies yourself!" Cheng Xiaofan sternly admonished Little White Dragon.
