"Doctor Li, do you really not need my help?" Sun Hong couldn't help but ask again. He also wanted to help, as he had the authority to remove the seal since the Industrial and Commercial Bureau had placed it.
"No need!" Li Se smiled, chatted with Sun Hong for a moment, and then hung up the phone.
Many employees looked worried as their factory was sealed.
"The factory has been sealed."
"They said the permits were fake. These people are truly despicable. We are clearly legitimate!"
"I heard someone has their sights set on our hemostatic and analgesic drugs, and they're resorting to any means necessary to get the formulas."
"What are we going to do now? Are we going to be unemployed?"
"..."
The employees were in an uproar. While they were angry about the misconduct, they were also worried about losing their jobs, as the factory offered excellent benefits and a comfortable life for them.
Li Se walked over, gathered all the factory employees, and announced loudly, "Everyone, you can take a break for now. Your salaries will still be paid. Don't worry, the factory won't be closed for long!"
"The boss is so good!"
"Glad we're not unemployed!"
"Thank you, boss!"
The employees were immensely grateful.
Zhang Aimin walked over and said to Li Se, "The military said they need a batch of medicine today and will come to collect it later. Li Se, are you planning to use your connections with the military?"
"You truly are my woman!" Li Se pulled Zhang Aimin into his arms. "One of the certificates that Ma Wenbin tore up just now was issued by the military."
About an hour later, the military arrived, and it was Qiu Jialiang himself who came. Upon seeing the seal on the factory gate, he was surprised. "Brother Li, what happened here?"
"Someone claimed my factory's permits were fake, tore them up, and sealed my factory," Li Se said with a helpless expression.
Qiu Jialiang's face darkened upon hearing this. "Who dared to tear up that permit?"
"It was the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, but it seems Zongheng Pharmaceutical is behind it. I heard Zongheng Pharmaceutical is an industry of the Su family from the capital. Brother Qiu, as you know, I'm just a doctor and can't afford to offend these prominent capital families." Li Se explained.
Qiu Jialiang said sternly, "Don't worry, leave it to me to handle!"
Qiu Jialiang left soon after. Li Se wasn't worried about the situation here at all. Just then, Su Mei's call came through, her voice urgent. "Save me!"
With just two words, Li Se knew Su Mei was in trouble. His expression changed. The Su family was likely attacking him from all sides, and at the same time, they were targeting Su Mei.
"Sister Min, I'm going out!" Li Se said, and then he left immediately.
Zhang Aimin snorted, "He's definitely going to see some tramp, and in such a hurry!"
In a suite at the Shengshi Hotel.
Xiao Hei was already heavily wounded, kneeling on the ground, bleeding profusely.
"Young Miss, we couldn't take you back last time, but this time, you must return with us!" The team was led by members of the Su family's guards. The Su family guards were top-tier experts, numbering ten in total, all trusted confidantes of the Su family. Their primary task was to protect the head of the Su family, and only the head of the family had the authority to mobilize the guards!
Su Mei's face was cold, and she remained silent, but her eyes showed anxiety.
"Are you waiting for Li Se?" the guard asked with a smile. "He's still busy with the factory matters. If he does show up, that's even better. Master has instructed us to cripple this Li Se!"
"With you guys?" Su Mei scoffed.
"Young Miss, you should know our strength. As the Master's personal guards, we are the most formidable experts in the Su family. Even if Li Se has trained, he cannot possibly be our match!" the guard said proudly.
"That's not necessarily true!"
A voice chimed in.
"Who are you?" The guard's expression changed slightly.
It was Xu Qiang who walked in. Seeing the guards before him, he broke into a radiant smile and said, "Oh, your Su family has finally sent some experts. Let me witness your strength!"
As he spoke, Xu Qiang made his move, taking a sudden step forward and launching a punch into the air. Almost simultaneously, a fierce gust of wind swept towards the guards.
These guards were all top-tier experts, but the moment Xu Qiang attacked, their hearts skipped a beat. In any high-level combat, one could tell the skill level from the first move. As Xu Qiang attacked, they knew he was an expert, and a very powerful one at that!
*Bang!*
With a loud *bang*, one of the guards was sent staggering back several steps by Xu Qiang's punch.
At the same time, the other guards attacked in unison. Although Xu Qiang's skills were formidable, they had the advantage of numbers and attacked together, naturally not fearing Xu Qiang.
*Bang bang bang...*
With several guards against one Xu Qiang, they managed to tie him down for the moment.
"This is great!" Xu Qiang was extremely excited. He loved this kind of fight.
"Qiangzi, finish it quickly!" Li Se said as he walked in.
"Alright!" Xu Qiang responded. He increased his punching speed and became even more ferocious. What was initially a defensive struggle now had a momentum of counterattack.
As soon as Su Mei saw Li Se, she rushed towards him.
The injured Xiao Hei also let out a sigh of relief.
"You are Li Se!" the guard who was initially repelled by Xu Qiang said, his expression changing slightly. "I didn't expect you to have such an expert by your side!"
"Do you still remember the message I delivered to your Su family?" Li Se said with a cold expression.
The guard raised an eyebrow. As a Su family guard, he naturally knew that Li Se's warning had enraged the Su family.
"That depends on whether you have the ability!" the guard sneered. He abandoned his attack on Xu Qiang and turned to attack Li Se.
"Is this all the Su family's experts are capable of?" Li Se said with disdain.
This remark angered the guard. He let out a roar and, as he approached Li Se, leaped into the air, spinning 360 degrees in mid-air before delivering a powerful punch downwards.
This punch was terrifying, almost silent as it cut through the air.
Li Se, however, did not retreat. He activated his Qi cultivation technique and met the punch with his own.
*Bang!*
A sound like a thunderclap echoed in the air.
*Crack!*
This was followed by the sound of bone breaking.
The fingers of the guard's hand were completely shattered, and he was sent flying backward. However, his skills were remarkable, as he managed to somersault and land steadily on the ground. Despite his broken fingers, he didn't even cry out in pain!
However, after just one punch, he already knew Li Se's formidable power. He had encountered a true master this time!
