"Ling Yunjue, can I go see them? I suspect they know where my mother is?" Ye Zhaoyu asked Ling Yunjue as she came to the kitchen.

“It’s no use. All the information we have was handwritten by those mute women. None of the researchers or ninjas spoke. Some of the information is just speculation based on the on-site data,” Ling Yunjue explained.

“I look like my mom, maybe that will have an unexpected effect?” Ye Zhaoyu also voiced her thoughts.

Ling Yunjue paused in his chopping of the chicken. "You're right. Let's go take a look after we finish eating."

Upon hearing that Ling Yunjue had agreed, Ye Zhaoyu quickly helped to start the fire and cook.

"Hiss." Before she could even pick up the firewood, Ye Zhaoyu quickly threw it away.

"How do you pull it?" Ling Yunjue quickly put down the kitchen knife and asked.

"It's nothing, I just got pricked by a splinter." Ye Zhaoyu held out her hand to Ling Yunjue to show him.

It wasn't that she didn't want to help; it was that this guy was bullying her and wouldn't let her do any work.

"I'll get it out for you, you should go and rest. I'll do it." Ling Yunjue carefully pulled the splinter out of his finger and pushed him out.

She's so delicate and fragile, she can even get hurt while lighting a fire. I don't know who would want to marry her.

Ling Yunjue sighed and resigned himself to cooking for Ye Zhaoyu. After all, Ye Zhaoyu had been a great help in this operation, and without her, many people would probably have died.

Ling Yunjue braised chicken and rabbit together, stir-fried some greens, and cooked a pot of rice, which was just enough for the two of them, as they both had quite a large appetite.

When Ling Yunjue brought out the food, a girl with a dirty face was standing in front of her.

"If you want to eat, go to them. Someone will take care of your meals." Ling Yunjue quickly avoided the girl.

He remembered this person; he had been trafficked.

To keep things quiet, we haven't prepared the antidote for them yet, mainly because we don't have the necessary herbs here, so we'll just have to wait and see.

The mute girl pointed to her face, as if trying to say something, but her mouth was wide open and she couldn't utter a word.

Ling Yunjue watched this person's actions and wondered if she should know him. But no, he didn't seem to have much contact with girls.

"Can you write? Write it down." Ling Yunjue indicated that she could write on the ground.

Upon hearing this, the mute girl quickly found a stick and wrote down her name.

Ye Zhaoyu saw that it was taking Ling Yunjue so long to bring out a meal, so she went out to check and saw the girl who liked to look at her with hatred harassing Ling Yunjue.

Did we run into someone we know?

When Ye Zhaoyu walked up, she saw several names written on the ground: Lin Jingjing's younger sister, Lin Jinghe.

Lin Jingjing went on a blind date with Ling Yunjue, but later died unexpectedly.

Ling Yunjue has a good memory and can still remember people's names.

"So it's you. But if you need anything, go find the person in charge of you. I have my own things to attend to." Ling Yunjue didn't understand why this person had come to see him. Was he trying to use connections?

After Ling Yunjue finished speaking, she looked at Ye Zhaoyu and said, "Let's go back and eat!" She ignored Lin Jinghe.

"She likes you?" Ye Zhaoyu asked, though it was a question, she was very certain.

"How could that be? I don't even know her if she didn't mention it." Ling Yunjue didn't believe it.

“But she’s jealous of me. You don’t know, she’s always looking at me with hatred in her eyes. At first, I thought she was planted by the enemy, but now that I think about it, there’s also jealousy in her eyes. I guess she’s jealous that I can get so close to you,” Ye Zhaoyu explained.

“Could it be that you’re overthinking it? Seven years ago, she was only 12 years old. How could she possibly like me when I was 18?” Ling Yunjue didn’t believe it.

"Perhaps you've forgotten about Huo Jianhong," Ye Zhaoyu prompted.

"Well... anyway, we still have our marriage certificate, so can you help me get rid of her?" Ling Yunjue thought of Huo Jianhong and chuckled to herself. This kind of clingy woman is such a hassle. You can't hit her, and scolding her doesn't really hurt. If she doesn't make a mistake, you can't even arrest her.

If you get entangled with this kind of person, forget about getting promoted or making money. If you say a single word to a woman, she'll probably be suspicious for ages, assuming you're being cheated on.

"Where do you need my help? With your abilities, if you really don't want to marry, who can force you?" Ye Zhaoyu knew that Ling Yunjue was just joking with her. As for whether he was testing her, no one thought about it too deeply.

These days, it's not easy to cultivate a promising talent. No one would give up a promising talent for a woman who is willing to die for love.

Moreover, it is said that marriage is a matter of freedom. If one party firmly disagrees, it is still very difficult to get married, especially for someone like Ling Yunjue who has a good family background and potential. He will not be indecisive or soft-hearted.

Those who can be threatened should also consider whether Ling Yunjue will retaliate after he gets promoted, since marriage is not the same as making an enemy.

Seeing that Ye Zhaoyu showed no jealousy whatsoever, only an expression of watching a show, Ling Yunjue knew that she hadn't fallen for him.

“Indeed, putting her aside, what are you planning to do after this is over?” Ling Yunjue asked Ye Zhaoyu.

"I don't know. If only I could go to university, I would go to university and become a doctor," Ye Zhaoyu said.

"With your medical skills, do you really need to learn? You might as well become a teacher."

“I don’t have enough formal education, only a primary school education. I learned everything else from my mother,” Ye Zhaoyu explained.

"Then you should be eligible to recruit as a special talent! After all, your mother is very famous."

"That requires people to operate it, and it also requires various successful cases. Famous doctors are built up by a series of successful cases. I'm still a long way from that." Doesn't she know that?

If you recommend her, you have to be prepared to support her. How could someone who isn't familiar with her medical skills dare to recommend her casually? Besides, some surgeries and some patients can only be handled by qualified doctors.

Not everyone is born with a perfectly normal illness.

Of course, with her mother still alive, her path will be much easier.

Ling Yunjue knew what Ye Zhaoyu was talking about. "There will always be opportunities. You should take good care of my brother. With him around, he will definitely introduce you to more patients."

"Should I say thank you?" Ye Zhaoyu asked Ling Yunjue after finishing her meal and putting down her chopsticks.

"Hehe, no need, I'll go wash the dishes." Ling Yunjue quickly cleared away the dishes.

Ye Zhaoyu found it quite amusing.

"Let's go, I'll take you to meet those researchers," Ling Yunjue said to Ye Zhaoyu after washing the dishes.

The two walked together toward the place where they were being held.

Lin Jinghe looked at the two walking side by side, her nails digging into her flesh.

What a shameless woman, she spends all her time with men, and she can't resist them.

Ye Zhaoyu was unaware that someone was about to become jealous of her again.

When the lab technicians arrived at the location with Ling Yunjue, they were indeed somewhat shocked to see her, but they quickly recovered.

Although it was only a fleeting change of expression, Ling Yunjue and Ye Zhaoyu saw it clearly.
