Chapter 1754: Chapter 1408: He Said His Surname Is Bai Lai Yin’s Team was settled quite comfortably by Bai Xiaosheng, in a place that Bai Xiaosheng owns. They don’t lack research funding and aren’t under anyone’s jurisdiction. It’s basically like “burying themselves at home, working on R&D freely”; how could they possibly encounter trouble? Is it really a case of disaster striking from the skies while sitting at home? “What exactly is going on?” Bai Xiaosheng asked Lin Weiwei, “What happened over there? Why didn’t Lai Yin contact me directly?” Judging from Lin Weiwei’s reaction, this matter seems quite significant. If that’s the case, Lai Yin has Bai Xiaosheng’s number and could have contacted him directly. This isn’t some daily trivial matter; why did Grace call Lin Weiwei? Lei Ying also had similar doubts and looked at Lin Weiwei. “Grace said the Haru City Pharmaceutical Administration Bureau and the security department sent people to take Lai Yin away, and they sealed their lab, claiming they are suspected of illegal research on uncertain safe drugs and wanted to investigate. The details are still unclear; Grace and the others are still protesting at the municipal government,” Lin Weiwei said. Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying exchanged a shocked look. “Didn’t Lai Yin’s research project start early, and didn’t they conduct research at Haru Medical College for a long time? What was Haru Municipal Government doing earlier, and why suddenly investigate now, even taking people away and sealing the lab?” Bai Xiaosheng murmured, frowning. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NoveIꜰire.net “Not sure, Grace didn’t have time to explain, the call was noisy, it seems they are protesting to the relevant departments. Xiaosheng, shall we go over and take a look?” Lin Weiwei said anxiously. She discerned that Grace’s voice was very anxious, the situation was not good. Bai Xiaosheng pondered briefly, nodded, and said to Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying, “You two stay here and wait for the business group. Based on our discussed content, let them draft the cooperation content first. I’ll borrow Soruns’ private jet and fly over to check things out!” Lei Ying nodded in agreement. “Xiaosheng, are you going alone? How about one of us stays here, and the other goes with you?” Lin Weiwei suggested. Bai Xiaosheng shook his head, “The matter won’t be solved with more people; I’m enough on my own. Cooperation with the Luo Family is a big deal here, it’s crucial! I trust better with you both here.” After Bai Xiaosheng explained, Lin Weiwei didn’t pursue the matter further. Then, Bai Xiaosheng contacted Soruns to borrow his private jet. Soruns said over the phone that even though he was not in London City, his private jet happened to be there. Soruns readily agreed to Bai Xiaosheng’s request, without even asking why he was going to Haru, stating they could depart in an hour. Bai Xiaosheng was eager to go and see the situation with Lai Yin, so he set the appointment to fly in an hour with Soruns. After hanging up, Bai Xiaosheng went back to his room to pack, with Lin Weiwei helping him. Lei Ying began organizing their discussions, so that they could immediately start working once the business group arrived. After Bai Xiaosheng finished packing, within an hour, someone came to the door, it was an assistant from Soruns, driving him to the airport. The subsequent events were uneventful; Bai Xiaosheng went to the airport and successfully boarded Soruns’ private plane, flying directly to Haru City. On the plane, he ate a rather lavish lunch. Upon arriving in Haru City, Bai Xiaosheng stepped out of the airport and saw that Grace was already waiting outside. She waved from afar and hurried over. “You’re finally here! Weiwei said you’d arrive around this time, so I came to pick you up. I waited and waited, and when you didn’t show up, I almost called her to verify!” Grace exclaimed with some relief. “Let’s go.” Bai Xiaosheng smiled at her, “Tell me what’s really going on along the way!” A few minutes later, Grace drove, Bai Xiaosheng sat in the passenger seat, rushing back to their building. There, only the lab was sealed; other places could be used normally. On the way, Grace told Bai Xiaosheng what she knew. “Before picking you up, we tried every means to find out that it was Mr. Berman causing trouble! He’s the one who reported us!” Grace said angrily. Berman? Bai Xiaosheng remembered. Ma Tianqing was at Berman Manor at that time, also taking Lin Weiwei and Grace there. He and Lei Ying took down a group at Berman Manor, even made Ma Tianqing’s face swollen like a pig. Later, Ma Tianqing left quietly, and Mr. Berman didn’t take any action. “I thought this matter was over, didn’t expect Mr. Berman would catch us off guard!” Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but scoff coldly. “As a city councilman and Justice of the Peace, Berman’s voice must be taken seriously by the two departments of the municipal government.” Grace said indignantly. She was a bit upset, “Also, I found the attitude of those department officials annoying today; not only did they brush us off, they also told us they’d thoroughly investigate, but it would take a month or even several months, urging us to prepare mentally. What a waste of taxpayer money with their inefficiency, utterly detestable! Lai Yin is detained, and they plan to seal our lab for so long that our experiments will be totally ruined!” Bai Xiaosheng’s expression darkened. Grace really thought it was those departments’ inefficiency?
