Ye Zhaoyu left the Qin family without incident.

This went so smoothly; it's not like something Qin Zichuan would do.

So you want me to lower my guard and try to take advantage of the Huo family again?

After all, she has only submitted an application and hasn't received the marriage certificate yet. If something really happens, her reputation will be truly ruined.

She may not care about gossip, but she can't let others scheme against her.

Ye Zhaoyu kept thinking about what Qin Zichuan would do next until she got home.

The best way to ruin a woman is to ruin her reputation.

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Zhaoyu said, "Xiao Feifei, arrange for someone to follow me these next few days. Make sure to see if anyone is following me. Just say that a black market boss ordered you to follow me."

Qin Zichuan was a military officer, and he wanted to follow people. Ye Zhaoyu had no way to prevent it, so she could only take precautions like this to make sure.

Ye Fei had no idea what Ye Zhaoyu was thinking, so he didn't ask anything. "Okay, by the way, a lot of people have been pursuing me lately."

Ye Fei also pointed out the unusual situation.

She always had a cold face. After doing some over-the-shoulder flips on several boys at the beginning of the semester, no one came to her anymore to seek attention. It felt a bit strange that she suddenly had a few more suitors.

"If you like someone, date them; if it doesn't work out, break up with them. Just remember what Mom said: sex is fine, but spending money is not, and betraying your sisters is absolutely not."

Ye Zhaoyu was joking.

This means they want to start with the people closest to them.

"I think there's a guy who's really nice. He's delicate and pitiful, which makes people want to protect him."

Ye Fei thought of the man who always pretended to be pitiful in front of her; this honey trap would work.

"Is that all?" Ye Zhaoyu asked curiously.

"Of course not only that, there was also a former soldier who appeared in front of me as a protector, treating me like a little woman."

Ye Fei then mentioned another suitor.

"You're so lucky to have so many handsome guys chasing after you."

Ye Zhaoyu said enviously.

"How about I give it to you?" Ye Fei disliked those stinky men at all; they were either weak and spineless or arrogant and self-important.

"No, I'm not even 24 years old yet. I've already suffered so much with men. I can't afford it."

Ye Zhaoyu quickly refused, "What a joke!"

"Alright, I'll just say so. I'll let you know what I'm investigating later."

Ye Fei left after he finished speaking.

Ye Zhaoyu hesitated for a moment, then walked down to the bottom, where her mother had built a research lab. It wasn't big, but it was fully equipped.

During the previous special period, the door was sealed with cement, and it was only in the last few days that the door was opened.

She felt that more research should be done on antidotes for aphrodisiacs.

Even if there's no antidote, delaying the onset by one or two and a half hours would be helpful.

This kind of antidote is difficult to make openly in a school laboratory, but it's not a big problem to make it at home.

Nian Mufeng has recently been pursued by Bai Qian to get married, and she waits for him at the entrance of the family compound every day.

To avoid making a scene, they reassured Bai Qian that the political background check would take time.

Bai Qian stopped talking when she heard about the political background check. She knew that her past was a bit murky and that she had been with too many men.

After calming people down, Nian Mufeng went to Ling Yunjue every day to ask when they could close the net.

“Uncle Nian, we have to wait. Why don’t you investigate Qin Zichuan? He agreed to the divorce so readily. He might be planning some underhanded scheme.”

Ling Yunjue felt a headache coming on when she saw Nian Mufeng coming over.

Their investigation revealed discrepancies in the number of people involved in human trafficking, with some disappearing without explanation.

The missing person seemed to have been sent to some kind of experiment.

We've only just uncovered a few leads, so we can't close the net immediately.

“Then give me a precise time so I have a better idea,” Nian Mufeng requested.

"Delay it for about six months. When she comes to ask, just say there's a problem with her identity."

Ling Yunjue made his move.

“Okay.” Nian Mufeng didn’t say anything, it was all for the country. “I’ll go investigate Qin Zichuan’s matter first.”

After saying that, Nian Mufeng left.

Ling Yunjue breathed a sigh of relief. This human trafficker lead was more important now, and she could only let Ye Zhaoyu deal with it herself for the time being.

Ling Yunjue thought for a moment and then sent two more people over to Ye Zhaoyu, both of whom she trusted very much.

When Ye Zhaoyu saw the two people who came over, they were ordinary-looking and unremarkable. After reading Ling Yunjue's letter, she hesitated for a moment, then took them in, arranged a place for them to stay and eat, and assigned them tasks to do.

The people who went to investigate Luo Qingdai haven't left yet and haven't sent back any information, so there's nothing we can say for sure right now.

Qin Zichuan withdrew the divorce application and did not submit it immediately.

He had someone keep an eye on Ye Zhaoyu.

Even if they divorce, he will make Ye Zhaoyu go out with a bad reputation.

The Luo family's case has been retried, and the exoneration document will be issued soon.

Luo Qingdai will return with the reputation of a medical genius, stepping over Ye Zhaoyu to get ahead.

Ye Zhaoyu felt very peaceful these past few days, but felt that something was missing.

"what's on your mind?"

As the group emerged from the laboratory, Yan Mingrui noticed that Ye Zhaoyu remained deep in thought, her head bowed.

"Don't you guys think it's been much quieter these past few days?" Ye Zhaoyu asked the other two.

"Yes." Shen Qingyang also felt much quieter.

"Luo Yi wasn't bothering you." Yan Mingrui looked around and quickly realized that the tagalong Luo Yi wasn't there.

“Yes, it seems like she hasn’t come for many days.” Shen Qingyang also noticed.

Wherever Ye Zhaoyu appears, she can always be seen following behind. I haven't seen her for the past few days.

"Oh, right, that explains why it's so quiet," Ye Zhaoyu thought to herself.

Did he just leave like that...?

Ye Zhaoyu has people on her side; find an opportunity to have them investigated.

"She said you're too arrogant, and maybe you don't have any real ability at all. Otherwise, how come a vaccine research project has taken so long without any results, and you're even afraid to teach others? You're not as amazing as people say. Now she's slandering you everywhere."

Ye Fei gave the information he had gathered to Ye Zhaoyu.

"Little Fish, can you say that a person's eating habits can suddenly change?"

"What kind of habits do you have?" Ye Zhaoyu asked curiously.

"As for Luo Yike, she used to love taking baths, brushing her teeth, and being very clean. Now she's very unhygienic. She doesn't brush her teeth, doesn't often take baths, and doesn't change her clothes often."

Ye Fei pointed out Luo Yike's unusual behavior, and she thought it might be because someone else had been replaced, but the person was still the same.

"The person has been changed. It's impossible for a person to change so much in a short period of time, especially a medical student."

Before even seeing the person, Ye Zhaoyu immediately voiced her thoughts.

"Then who do you think that person was?" Ye Fei asked curiously.

Ye Zhaoyu lowered her head and pondered for a moment, "Do you know where Luo Yike's hometown is?"

Ye Zhaoyu had some doubts about whether the previous Luo Yi was actually Luo Qingdai. She wasn't stupid; it was normal for her to know some disguise techniques.

"It should be in the information." Ye Fei found the information on Luo Yike and Luo Qingdai.

Uh, not the same place? Not even the same province.
