The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 344 Blood Ganoderma Brittany knew Jessica wouldn't actually fire Daniel, but it didn't stop her from using the threat to scare the country boy.

"Jessica wouldn't fire me!" "And why wouldn't she?" "Because I'm both cheap and effective! Have you brought as much value to TMO during your there as I have?" "You..." Right then, Aiden reappeared, her hands gracefully holding a polished mahogany box secured with a 24-karat gold lock. She approached Daniel, and a unique scent wafted to his nose - a blend of the distinct aroma of Ganoderma and a subtle, bewitching female fragrance. The latter even overshadowed the Ganoderma's scent, drawing him in further.

Noticing Daniel's nose twitch in response, Brittany's frown deepened. Her intuition screamed that this country boy was up to no good. So, she darkened her expression and demanded, "What are you doing?" "Nothing, why?" "What do you mean nothing? I saw your nose twitching. What are you sniffing?" "Obviously, it's a fragrance!" "Which fragrance?" "The scent of Ganoderma." "What else?" Daniel leaned in closer, bringing his nose near Brittany's chest and took a light whiff, then teasingly exclaimed, "The scent of a woman!" "You lecher! You have no shame!" Brittany scolded fiercely.

Deep down, however, she felt an odd delight, as if she secretly enjoyed being sniffed by this country boy. "Cough cough," Aiden cleared her throat and then, with a playful gaze at the two, inquired, "You two are just ordinary colleagues?" "Plain colleagues? What else would we be? Surely not the intimate kind of colleagues?" "You..." Aiden blushed with embarrassment, but also feigned indignation, "You really are a rogue! Every word out of your mouth is indecent!" She meant her words half in jest, half seriously-using this playful banter to draw closer to Daniel. That way, it would be easier for her to later weasel the billion from his account.

Brittany immediately sensed something was off. What was Aiden implying? Was she trying to flirt with Daniel right in front of her? Even though Brittany looked down upon the country boy, she couldn't let another woman flirt with him so freely. He was her colleague after all, and it was her duty to protect him, to prevent him from being taken advantage of by others.

Despite feeling a bit jealous, Brittany didn't show it. Instead, she pointed to the mahogany box and asked, "Is Blood Ganoderma inside that box?" Aiden produced a 24-karat gold key and delicately inserted it into the lock, giving it a gentle twist. Click! The gold lock sprung open, and a blinding beam of crimson light shot out, almost dazzling Brittany's eyes.

As the bright glow faded, a Ganoderma drenched in what seemed to be fresh blood was revealed, blood that appeared to be alive and flowing like a living entity.

This was the Blood Ganoderma! For Brittany, who looked completely astonished and had clearly never seen such a thing, Aiden didn't miss the chance to boast and began to enthusiastically introduce the marvel before them.
