Chapter 191: Chapter 191

Lu Feng prayed that Miss An Yan would catch up quickly to have a chat with Ninth Master while inconspicuously relaying the new information he had received:

"Among the low-level leaders these drug sellers confessed to, one is from R-country! When his identity was exposed, he tried to commit suicide, but our men managed to chop off his shoulder in time, thus..."

"Yes, the interrogators found a tattoo of the Royal Family insignia from R-country—a yellow flower—on his shoulder."

"And when we asked him critical questions, his gaze kept darting to the flower, so we sensed something was off and decided to cut off the tattooed shoulder."

"To our astonishment, there was a micro bomb implanted under the skin beneath the flower."

"According to the forensic report, the bomb had a blast radius of just thirty centimeters, meaning its only function if detonated would have been to blow his head off!"

Afterward, when An Yan got in the car and saw that Li Tianyao’s car had started but hadn’t moved, she thought he was waiting for her to greet him.

"Wen Ya, drive forward a bit so we can say hello before we leave!"

As Wen Ya started the car, the one in front also fired up, and it accelerated immediately.

"Miss, shall we follow?" Wen Ya asked.

"No need, safety first."

She didn’t think Li Tianyao was being petulant. She simply assumed there was another reason for his car’s sudden acceleration.

Wen Ya turned the steering wheel, and the car slowly exited the villa’s gate.

Once on the main road, An Yan felt a gaze fixed on her and turned her head to look.

A window was ajar in a room on the side building.

Standing there was none other than Li Qingqing!

Presumably, Li Qingqing thought An Yan couldn’t see her. Her eyes were filled with an icy, malicious intent that sent a shiver down An Yan’s spine!

"Wen Ya, tell me about Li Qingqing," An Yan said.

Wen Ya pondered for a moment.

"Miss Qingqing has always been by the side of the previous family head. It’s said that when she was young, she accidentally consumed his food, which had been poisoned by someone."

"Ever since then, Miss Qingqing’s health has been poor. She suffered in place of the previous family head. Consequently, before his passing, he instructed the Ninth Master to take good care of her, and so the Ninth Master brought her with him."

The previous family head was none other than Li Tianyao! His identity had always been that of the Li Family head; it’s just that ordinary people weren’t aware of it. So Li Qingqing saved Li Tianyao’s life, and that’s why she gained favor in Li Tianyao’s eyes?

"How old was she when she was poisoned?" An Yan inquired.

Wen Ge replied, "I don’t know the details."

"Was the person who poisoned her found?"

"They should have been. It’s said that the previous family head dealt with it personally."

Dealt with it personally? This meant the matter was of great importance in Li Tianyao’s eyes. But for someone who isn’t afraid of poison at all, did he need to take it so seriously? Even if the initial target was him, according to his character, wouldn’t he have just handed the matter over to his subordinates to handle?

"After that, Miss Qingqing began studying medicine. Mostly, she stayed in her laboratory. The family hardly ever saw her unless the Ninth Master was home. This continued until she turned eighteen, when one day, Miss Qingqing suddenly jumped off the building."

"I’m not entirely clear on the details. It seemed like she went mad from her research. Luckily, the Li Family always had physicians who managed to rescue her."

"It’s said she underwent several surgeries just on her face. Since then, Miss Qingqing has been even more unwilling to go out and meet people."

An Yan subconsciously applied the Divination Technique.

But again, she could only deduce details up to when Li Qingqing was eighteen years old.

After eighteen, there was a void.

This felt just like when she tried to predict Gu Shifang, with nothing showing up.

Li Tianyao said that the body of Gu Shifang had died, which is why An Yan couldn’t figure it out. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ NoveI★Fire.net

Was Li Qingqing the same, her original body dead, and the person in this body now actually someone else? If that’s the case, is Li Qingqing a Memory Rebirth, like Gu Shifang? Or is it Immortality, like Li Tianyao’s? Does Li Tianyao know about her situation? If he knows, why is he hiding this matter? If he doesn’t know, then how did Li Qingqing manage to conceal this from Li Tianyao? What exactly is she plotting against Li Tianyao? Could she turn evil due to her unrequited love for Li Tianyao?

Without realizing it, the car had arrived at the entrance of the hospital.

An Yan saw Mu Enyu, Su Siming, and Liang Chen waiting there.

She took out her phone and sent a message to Li Tianyao first: "Be careful! Li Qingqing might not be the real Li Qingqing! I’ll explain in detail when we meet after my surgery."

After thinking about it, she added another line: "After the surgery, you’ll be waiting for me outside the operating room, right?"

Li Tianyao’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and a trace of a smile appeared unconsciously on his face, which had been cold all this way.

He thought she really didn’t care about him, but it turns out she did care! She was even afraid that Li Qingqing would harm him! Even though she knew his capabilities, she still found such an excuse, which basically just showed her fear that he wouldn’t come to see her surgery, right? The little girl clearly wanted to see him right after she got out of the operating room!

After typing the words, he deleted them.

Why should he reply just because she asked? He was spoiling her!

After deleting it, he thought that the little girl was about to go into surgery, and if she wasn’t at peace and something happened...

It wasn’t that he was indulging her. He just worried that she would come crying to him if her surgery failed. He didn’t want to comfort that weeping little girl.

So he typed the words again:

Lu Feng caught a glimpse of Ninth Master’s lips curving into a smile unintentionally when he glanced back.

Seeing the mobile phone in Ninth Master’s hand, he instantly understood that Miss An Yan had come back to her senses and was messaging to coax Ninth Master.

Li Tianyao noticed Lu Feng’s gaze and his handsome face darkened.

"And then? What was that person from R-country doing infiltrating the drug trafficking gang?"

Lu Feng quickly returned to work mode:

"He’s dead, so it’s impossible to hear his confession. However, the goal of that drug trafficking organization is to turn our country’s residents into addicts as quickly as possible with drugs."

"They also said they would use drugs to control our country and then the whole world!"

Li Tianyao scoffed, "What grand ambitions! No wonder they dared to collaborate with Gu Shifang."

「At the entrance of the hospital.」

As soon as An Yan got out of the car, Mu Enyu and the two others immediately gathered around her.

Su Siming exclaimed with an exaggerated look of shock, "Sister Yan, I just saw two medical experts with their students entering the hospital. To manage to invite them, Renhe Hospital indeed has significant prestige."

Liang Chen added, "One is Professor Song Qingshu, and the other is Professor Tian Zhongren. Both are authorities in the field of neurology. I suspect that they came today for the surgery you are about to have."

Mu Enyu hooked An Yan’s arm. "Sister Yan, don’t be nervous, we believe in you!"

An Yan wasn’t nervous! She had absolute confidence in her medical skills.

To keep her from being nervous, Mu Enyu even started telling her about Xu Muwei.
