Supremely Talented Tyrant-Chapter 705 - 706: Meeting the Parents
"If I let you out and guarantee that I can provide live subjects for your experiments, would you be able to forgive me?" Hao Jian asked with a smile.
"What?" The Pharmacist was taken aback by his words; was Hao Jian actually agreeing to provide him with live subjects for experimentation?
"Or do you find killing me more important than conducting experiments?" Hao Jian asked cheerfully, confident that the Pharmacist would eventually agree to his terms.
Because every scientist is mad, and for the sake of research, they would eventually give up everything.
"Can you really provide me with live subjects as test subjects?" Sure enough, the Pharmacist was tempted. He was just as Hao Jian had imagined—willing to give up everything for the sake of an experiment.
For scientists like him, nothing is more important than scientific research.
"Yes, and I can also guarantee that no one will disturb you while you conduct your experiments, and you won't get arrested!" Hao Jian promised faithfully. With his current status and position, it wasn't hard for him to do this.
"Why should I believe you?" However, the Pharmacist was somewhat skeptical. What was Hao Jian's identity, that he dared to make such grand promises?
"Do you have any other choice besides believing me?" Hao Jian mocked.
"What do you want me to do?" The Pharmacist asked with a frown, knowing that there's no such thing as a free lunch. If Hao Jian was willing to help him like this, there must be a reason.
"It's simple, work for me, provide me with the drugs I want, can you do that?" Hao Jian said with a smile.
The Pharmacist saw through it; Hao Jian was interested in his expertise in pharmaceutics. That's why he planned to take him under his wing.
But the Pharmacist didn't mind. As long as Hao Jian could provide him with live subjects for research, why not give him some drugs? After all, their relationship was nothing more than mutual use.
"Fine, I agree to your terms." In the end, the Pharmacist agreed to Hao Jian's conditions. His fervor for research had made him cast aside all his other concerns.

"Wait here." Hao Jian said to the Pharmacist and then walked out, knowing that he had to rescue Moon Goddess Jiang first if he wanted to release him.
Now that Ye Fenglin was in full charge of Black Iron Mountain, it would be impossible to get the Pharmacist out if Moon Goddess Jiang couldn't regain her post.
"What's going on, what's going on? Who allowed you to open the door?" Just then, the crowing voice of Ye Fenglin came from outside, as he came downstairs with a group of people.
Upon seeing Hao Jian, Ye Fenglin's expression turned cold and he angrily said, "Hao Jian, you again?"
"Hey, we meet again." Hao Jian waved at Ye Fenglin, behaving as though they were old acquaintances.
Hearing this, Ye Fenglin was infuriated. Had this guy the audacity to greet him so casually? Had he forgotten that Hao Jian had beaten him up?
"Hao Jian, what are you doing here? Are you trying to break the jail?" Ye Fenglin rebuked him without a hint of warmth in his voice, glaring at the soldier beside Hao Jian. "Who allowed you to let him in? Don't you have a brain?"
"But... but he has a pass," the soldier said innocently.
"A pass?" Ye Fenglin was puzzled. How could this guy have a pass? He's clearly not a member of Dragon Tooth.
At that moment, Hao Jian took out a written document and said with a smile, "This is an **** order personally issued by Old Man Yun. If you have any objections, feel free to take it up with him."
At the mention of this, Ye Fenglin's face changed suddenly, as he knew very well that if Old Man Yun had spoken, he had no right to stop Hao Jian.
"Step aside!" Hao Jian pushed Ye Fenglin to one side and then opened the cell door of Moon Goddess Jiang, "Let's go, we're going home!"
"Hao Jian..." At that moment, Ye Fenglin called out to Hao Jian, turning his head with a grim expression to look at him.
Hao Jian turned his head too, smiling amiably at Ye Fenglin, "What's up, is there a problem?"
"Don't think you've won just yet. I'll soon take something very important from you, and when that time comes, you won't even be able to cry." Ye Fenglin spoke arrogantly, his smile boding ill, clearly ready to cause trouble for Hao Jian.
Naturally, Hao Jian knew that Ye Fenglin was referring to the land issue, but he had already sold that piece of land to Murong Yeyun. When the time came, it would be Murong Yeyun and Ye Fenglin who would be at loggerheads, and it would have nothing to do with him.
"Are you talking about that piece of land? No worries, it's yours for the taking." Hao Jian waved his hand with a smile, entirely unconcerned.
After all, the money was already in his pocket, and the oil from that piece of land would ultimately end up with the state. Such an important resource wouldn't be handed over to Ye Fenglin by the state, so Hao Jian was not at all worried that Ye Fenglin would pocket it for himself. He didn't have the guts for that.
Ye Fenglin was dumbfounded on the spot. Did Hao Jian know he was after that piece of land? Less than five people knew about this—how had Hao Jian found out?
Seeing Hao Jian act so nonchalant, Ye Fenglin found it somewhat incredible. This guy doesn't care? Why on Earth not?
Ye Fenglin felt that something was not quite right, Hao Jian's reaction was illogical, and logically, he shouldn't have known about this matter.
But before Ye Fenglin could come to his senses, Hao Jian had already left the cell with Moon Goddess Jiang and the Pharmacist.
"Something's off, really off," Ye Fenglin furrowed his eyebrows, a gloomy expression on his face, he said to the person next to him, "Go investigate who this guy has recently been in contact with for me, I want to figure out what exactly is going on."
......
Afterward, Hao Jian immediately arranged a lab for the Pharmacist, allowing him to conduct research undisturbed. As for live subjects, Hao Jian promised to send them over as soon as he had any, and the Pharmacist chose to trust him.
Meanwhile, Hao Jian was on his way home with Moon Goddess Jiang and Xiaolu, returning, of course, to Hao Jian's home.
"Do you really think this is a good idea?" Moon Goddess Jiang couldn't help but ask Hao Jian, she simply thought Hao Jian was crazy on hearing that he wanted to take her home and tell Shu Ya about having a daughter.
For any woman, the sudden revelation of her husband having another daughter would be a huge shock.
"Whether it's good or bad, it has to be said. If I don't dare to acknowledge my own daughter, what kind of father am I?" Hao Jian said firmly as he drove, without looking away. Sooner or later, Shu Ya would have to find out about this.
Embracing Xiaolu, Moon Goddess Jiang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of contentment, "Actually, I'm already very satisfied that you can say that. I never thought to force you to recognize Xiaolu from the start."
"Satisfied my ass, you're the one who stirred up this mess! I treated you like a brother, but you screwed me over instead. I haven't even settled the score with you yet!" Hao Jian said resentfully, thinking that not only had he been screwed over, but now there was even a daughter involved. Could he possibly shirk responsibility?
Moon Goddess Jiang: "..."
Back at home, Shu Ya was having dinner with Ruo Lan and the others. Seeing Hao Jian return with Moon Goddess Jiang and Xiaolu, they all frowned.
To them, every woman around Hao Jian was a threat, and with Moon Goddess Jiang holding a little girl, it felt even more unsettling.
"It looks like a storm is coming," Crazy Faction, sensing something, said oddly, quoting an ancient poem. Afterward, she couldn't help but feel smug, "My Chinese has improved lately, don't you think?"
But no one paid any attention to her; everyone's eyes were intently fixed on Hao Jian, Moon Goddess Jiang, and the other two.
With so many eyes on her, Moon Goddess Jiang felt a bit guilty and lowered her head. After all, Shu Ya was still Hao Jian's lawful wife, and her sudden appearance seemed to suggest she was vying for the position of the main wife.
"Who is she?" Shu Ya pointed at Moon Goddess Jiang and asked Hao Jian.
"Well, my relationship with her is a bit complicated, I'll explain it to you later," Hao Jian said with a wry smile and then picked up Xiaolu, "Let me introduce her first, this is my daughter, Xiaolu."
"Daughter?" As soon as he said this, Shu Ya and the others were taken aback. When did Hao Jian have another daughter?
"Hao Jian, are you randomly acknowledging daughters again?" Shu Ya asked, thinking Hao Jian had taken on another goddaughter.
"She's not someone I acknowledged, she's my biological child," Hao Jian said with a wry smile, deciding to lay bare the whole truth.
"What?" Hearing this, Shu Ya, and the others were all startled. Biological? But looking at the little girl's age, she appeared to be two or three years old. Did that mean Hao Jian had had a child with someone three or four years ago?
And their gaze toward Moon Goddess Jiang became odd because they could tell that she was Xiaolu's mother.
"Hao Jian, you can't be a married man who deceived me, right?" Shu Ya stared at Hao Jian with murderous eyes. If things were as she imagined, she wouldn't be able to stop herself from slaughtering Hao Jian.
If Hao Jian already had a wife and child but still hit on others, wouldn't that be outright deception?
"Let me explain," Hao Jian hastily began to clarify, then narrated the entire background of the situation to Shu Ya.
"Wow, what a bold woman," Crazy Faction murmured with an odd expression while stuffing food into her mouth and foolishly giggling.
Moon Goddess Jiang, too, was blushing with embarrassment, worried that Shu Ya and Wen Lan would see her as a loose woman.
However, they didn't think so; they even admired Moon Goddess Jiang a bit.
They all understood how hard it was for a woman to raise a child all by herself, and Moon Goddess Jiang was thinking of doing it alone, without even telling Hao Jian. She had the courage to love and to be responsible, never thinking of asking Hao Jian for anything, and staying single for so many years. How could such a woman be a harlot?
"So why did you bring them here today? What are you trying to say?" Shu Ya sat on the sofa, arms crossed, looking at Hao Jian with a cold gaze.
