After a round of toasting, Nokovic received a call and had something to handle temporarily, so he apologetically explained to Qi Yun and left first.
Seeing this, Mendeleyev quickly got up and followed Nokovic outside, quietly handing over a briefcase.
Nokovic didn't refuse, a meaningful smile on his lips as he gently patted Mendeleyev's shoulder, signaling his approval of their future collaboration.
With the outsiders gone, the few remaining people felt free to speak more openly. Mendeleyev raised his glass and downed it in one gulp before recounting the events of last night.
It turned out that shortly after Qi Yun and the others left, several cars arrived at the scene. Mendeleyev thought they were sent by Nokovic and didn't put up any defense.
However, seven or eight people got out of the cars and, without a word, detained them.
