At that moment, the blue-eyed man whistled, "Wow, isn't this a big star? So, you're Jiu Shiyi's sister?"

The cat walked over unhurriedly.

Old Man Jiu looked at her nervously, "Cat Cat, this is none of your business. Go back first, and come back another day!"

For a long time, Yi pursed his lips and remained silent.

Even a blind man could see that Old Man Jiu's family was in trouble, and Old Man Jiu was now very worried that if the cat stayed, it would implicate her.

“Old man, she’s already here, what’s the rush? Isn’t she your granddaughter? We’re family, what’s there to hide? Big star, please sit down, we’re discussing business,” the blue-eyed man said.

Cat ignored him and walked straight to Old Man Jiu's side. She looked at him and saw some glaring red blood foam on his neat Tang suit. "Old man, you vomited blood?"

Old Man Jiu looked at the cat helplessly, but still said, "Cat, I'm fine."

The cat frowned. "Your voice lacks confidence and sounds weak. Do you know how long it will take to recover from that mouthful of blood you just spat out?"

Stared at by her gaze, and hearing her reproachful tone, Old Man Jiu, who had been anxious about the current situation, suddenly felt a pang of self-reproach. "I know, I..."

"You know it, yet you still try to show off?"

Old Man Jiu was speechless when asked the question.

"Hahahaha..." The blue-eyed man seemed unwilling to be left out, and he laughed loudly, saying, "Big star, this old man is just so easily angered. I only lightly scared him a couple of times, and he almost died of anger!"

Upon hearing this, Old Man Jiu's expression changed drastically, and he became angry again, "You've gone too far!"

The blue-eyed man looked at him with disdain. "So what? Your whole family is old, weak, sick, and disabled. What can they do to me?"

Just as the old man was about to hit someone with his cane, the cat suddenly patted his shoulder gently. "Old man, it's no big deal. Don't get angry. I can't save you if you get angry."

Upon hearing this, Old Man Jiu miraculously calmed down.

The blue-eyed man, however, became even more unrestrained, his arrogant laughter echoing throughout the villa. "Hahaha, yes! Be careful you don't get angry!"

Cat walked over and sat down next to Jiu Shiyi. She looked at the blue-eyed man and asked directly, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

The blue-eyed man snorted, seemingly dissatisfied with the cat's attitude. "You're just a cheap trickster. Do you really think you're something special? Even if I told you, what would you know?"

Jiu Shiyi glared at the blue-eyed man and said, "Pei Wu! Watch your mouth!"

Pei Wu scoffed, "Am I wrong? Why are you so nervous?"

Cat glanced at Jiu Shiyi and said, "Little brother, children shouldn't interrupt when adults are talking."

Jiu Shiyi choked for a moment; he simply couldn't stand Pei Wu's foul mouth spouting nonsense.

"I already know your name is Pei Wu. So what are you here for? If you don't tell me, then I'll guess whether you belong to the Kunwu Biological Research Base or the Kunwu Weapon Technology Research Base."

"Did you come to take Jiu Shiyi away, or to kill him and silence him?"

Pei Wu sat up and looked at Maomao with some surprise. "It seems that Jiu Shiyi is very close to you, his older sister. He even tells you things like this. That's right, I am from the Kunwu Weapon Technology Research Base."

As for what I'm here for, that depends on your brother. He's obtained a large amount of rare materials from the base and is manufacturing weapons privately. If he can hand over all the weapons and blueprints, then there's still room for negotiation.

If he doesn't hand it over, this matter certainly won't end well; as you said, it'll be a matter of killing him to silence him.

As he spoke, Pei Wu made a throat-slitting gesture and smiled cruelly.

"Don't worry, big star. I'm a professional at this kind of thing. This villa is under my control inside and out. Even if I kill you all, I can clean it up cleanly."

Why did you have to come now of all times? Were you in such a hurry to die with their family? If you had turned back earlier, none of this would have happened. But, why did you have to come in?

Pei Wu made no attempt to hide anything, as if, just as he said, the villa was already under his control, and he now seemed to be watching his prey struggle.

However, Pei Wu didn't see the expression he wanted to see on the cat's face. She wasn't scared at all! Nor was she afraid!

She nodded slightly, then asked with a hint of curiosity, "Jiu Shiyi is a researcher at the Kunwu Biotechnology Research Base. He is under special protection. I'm curious, do you really dare to kill him?"

Pei Wu sneered, "The special protection is only for researchers who have contributed to Kunwu. As for Jiu Shiyi, since he entered Kunwu, his research projects have not made any breakthroughs. What kind of young genius is he? Since cloning that pair of goldfish, he has not achieved anything. In fact, he can't even clone a pair of goldfish a second time!"

He was testing Kunwu's patience with him.

The cat turned its head and asked Jiu Shiyi, "Little brother, have you run out of ideas?"

Jiu Shiyi choked up immediately, "Sister, I..."

The cat replied, "It's alright, at least you were once a genius."

Cat then looked at Pei Wu, "There's another thing I'm also quite puzzled about. Kunwu is supposed to be a unique organization in the world, shouldn't they leave some room for maneuver in their actions? How could you end up committing murder to cover it up?"

Pei Wu scoffed, "Big star, you're really naive. Jiu Shiyi is using Kunwu's resources for private research, which is a very serious offense. You probably don't know that, do you? Leaking the company's internal research results is... a capital offense."

"I did not leak any research results!" Jiu Shiyi retorted.

The middle-aged man wearing glasses also said, "Xiao Yi would never leak research results; he's a very obedient child!"

Pei Wu glared fiercely at the middle-aged man, "Do you even have the right to speak here?"

The latter was timid and immediately shut up.

Another middle-aged man said, "Since you're here to see Jiu Shiyi, then this matter has nothing to do with me. Don't worry, once you leave this room, I won't say a word that I shouldn't say."

"Jiu Zhongjing! How could you say such a thing!" the bespectacled man angrily accused. "When you came here just now, didn't you swear that you would stand with Xiao Yi through thick and thin?"

Jiu Zhongjing said, "I did say that, but I didn't know that Xiao Yi had misappropriated Kunwu's resources without permission. Second brother, you should know better than anyone what kind of place Kunwu is, right?"

"The Jiu family still has so many members. Do you really want them to be destroyed? Don't worry, after I leave, no matter what happens in the future, I will take good care of everyone in the Jiu family."
