Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife

"The consequences are that severe?"

Song Yun said with some surprise, "I thought at most I'd be locked up for a few years."

"If this were a normal company, indeed, the sentence could be lighter, but your formula is different! It involves an extremely wide scope!!"

Ouyang Jie said darkly, "You don't think the results of the Agility Potion are as insignificant as that, do you?"

"So now there are two options laid out in front of me."

Song Yun pondered for a moment and said, "Go and bring that researcher here, I want to have a chat with him."

"Alright."

About half an hour later, Ouyang Jie walked in with a man in his thirties, sporting an unkempt beard. The man trembled slightly when he saw Song Yun; he knew he had made a serious mistake, and if this matter were exposed, he could forget about continuing his career in scientific research.

After all, no one wants a traitor in their team.

"Greetings, President Song."

The man's voice trembled as he spoke.

"Hmm, you're Zhou Jiaping, right?"

Song Yun asked with no expression on his face, "Do you know why I've called you here?"

"I know... I was too curious and stole your research results..."

Zhou Jiaping answered in a low voice, "Initially, it was just out of curiosity, but I never expected to actually succeed..."

"Then do you understand the consequences if the formula were to be leaked?!"

Song Yun slammed the table fiercely and scolded, "Do you realize how many people you've implicated by doing this?"

"I didn't know... I heard from a colleague say that the core members of this project make more than twice my monthly salary... In a moment of folly, I just..."

Zhou Jiaping said with a bitter smile, "Although I indeed violated some rules, I still managed to develop the potion, didn't I..."

"What, you think using someone else's formula for research is something to be proud of?"

Song Yun knit his brows slightly.

"No, on the contrary, I feel some shame, but... but I really did develop it, and according to the law, this potion should also be considered my research achievement."

Zhou Jiaping, resolved, lifted his head and said with a firm gaze, "Your potion and mine have different effects, so they are two different things."

"Hehe, that's the first time I've heard such a thing."

Song Yun shook his head and said, "According to what you say, indeed, the two research results are different, but the required materials are the same. Your product is derived from my formula! This is theft!"

"No! This is like a father having a son, the son has the father's blood, but to everyone, they are two separate individuals!"

Zhou Jiaping roared furiously, "Moreover, this formula isn't really a secret now, is it? Just like how Coca-Cola has labeled its ingredient list for so many years, yet no one can produce an identical product, can they? You can say my behavior this time was just luck, like a blind cat running into a dead mouse, but you cannot insult my output!"

"You sure have your reasons."

Song Yun lit a cigarette and said with a smile, "But I regret to tell you that my formula is indeed confidential information, and it has a high level of secrecy. Because of your curiosity, your brother-in-law, the warehouse manager, will be fired, and we will pursue his legal responsibility."

"No, you can't do this!"

Zhou Jiaping shouted with dilated pupils.

In fact, after he had completed his research and conducted the experiments, he released his results. Immediately, many people came to discuss with him. If he switched jobs now, he could lead a team on his own, and his salary and benefits would be five times higher than what they are now!

"You first committed the wrong, so the people connected to you must be punished. Your wife is a teacher at Magic Capital University, I presume. Unfortunately, she has been fired."

Song Yun said indifferently, "I had intended to have a good talk with you, but I don't agree with your thinking, so it's better to cut the Gordian knot."

"And I can tell you that because of your theft, your descendants, as well as your brother-in-law's family's descendants, will have a note added to their records; they can forget about taking public exams or applying for graduate schools."

Hearing Song Yun's words, Zhou Jiaping suddenly burst forth, charging at Song Yun, but was taken down by Ouyang Jie with one hand.

"You devil! You vile capitalist! Pah!"

"I really don't understand, it was you who first did the wrong thing, so why blame me? Is it because I didn't offer you a good salary? Or did I exploit you? I didn't! On the contrary, in this industry, I offer top-tier compensation. People like you always like to push all the blame onto others."

Song Yun squatted down and said coldly, "I am the victim here! Do you understand?"

"Bastard! Bastard!"

Zhou Jiaping struggled and shouted, "Even if you send me to prison, I won't be locked up for long, and when I come out, I'll still be a good man!"

"It seems someone has already promised you,"

Song Yun clicked his tongue and said, "Ouyang Jie, check who has been in contact with him recently."

"Alright!"

Ouyang Jie made a phone call.

Twenty minutes later, he received a reply. Hearing about the people behind those organizations, Ouyang Jie's face turned ugly.

After hanging up the phone, Ouyang Jie, unable to contain his anger, slapped Zhou Jiaping across the face.

"Scumbag! You actually dared to collaborate with foreign organizations!"

"Pah!"

Zhou Jiaping spat out a mouthful of blood and said with a cold laugh, "So what? Science has no borders. If I can't continue my research here, aren't I allowed to go elsewhere? Let me tell you, fortunes change over time. When I've completely figured it out, my potion will be a thousand, no, ten thousand times better than yours!"

"Scumbag!"

Ouyang Jie raised his arm and was about to strike again but was stopped by Song Yun.

"It seems you are truly ignorant."

Song Yun sighed and said, "Do you really think after doing all this, you can still leave?"

"You can't detain a person with a green card!"

Zhou Jiaping said with some pride, "I've already made contact with them, and my green card is under review. Once my status is confirmed, you will have no right to judge me!"

"Damn it! I want to butcher you!"

Ouyang Jie roared fiercely.

"People should know their place."

Song Yun said with icy eyes, "Then I'm afraid we'll have to ask you to take a trip with those people."

After that, Song Yun made a phone call, and an hour later, twelve security personnel in full gear entered the villa.

In front of these men stood two uniformed individuals.

"Hello, I am from the Magic Capital National Security Branch, in charge of this transport!"
