The study in the north building of the Jing Family Manor.

The afternoon sun shone through the glass windows, casting a mix of warm and cool light on the floor.

The bookshelves are filled with ancient books and financial reports, and the air is filled with the faint scent of cedar.

Jingmin sat behind his desk, his fingers lightly tracing the surface, his gaze deep and thoughtful.

Quietly flipping through the lab reports on the table.

Yan Zhou stood in front of the desk, holding a latest investigation report in his hand.

He adjusted his glasses, his expression unchanged.

But his tone clearly carried a hint of thoughtful caution:

"President Jing, we just received news that Zhou Heng has been taken away."

Jing Min didn't look up, lightly tapping the table with his fingertips, his tone indifferent:

"Um."

Yan Zhou continued:

“Zhou Heng’s research institute was not only shut down, but several of the Zhou family’s overseas pharmaceutical supply chains were also frozen, causing the stock price to collapse and a large number of investors to withdraw their funds.”

"In less than a day, the Zhou family was almost completely uprooted."

Yan Zhou paused for a moment,

His gaze casually swept over Zhou Chen on the sofa, paused slightly, and then he slowly said:

"The Zhou family is finished..."

After he finished speaking, the study fell into a brief silence.

Zhou Chen sat on the sofa and casually picked up a dart.

My fingertips twirled aimlessly.

His eyes and brows were languid, and his tone was as casual as if he were listening to someone else's family affairs.

"oh."

Yan Zhou adjusted his glasses, his gaze falling indifferently on him.

They seemed to be observing his reaction.

Zhou Chen chuckled softly.

With a flick of the wrist, the dart struck the bullseye on the wall with pinpoint accuracy.

His tone was casual, with a slight rise at the end:

"It doesn't matter."

"Anyway, there's no place for me at home."

"I've already become a crony of your CEO Jing, so Assistant Yan doesn't need to worry about me going broke."

Yan Zhou raised an eyebrow slightly, seemingly unsurprised by his attitude, and simply nodded calmly.

"It seems that Young Master Zhou has a good attitude."

Zhou Chen chuckled softly, indifferently continuing to play with the darts.

Jing Min remained silent, his fingers lightly tapping the table.

Her gaze swept over Zhou Chen indifferently, seemingly uninterested in his attitude.

Seeing this, Yan Zhou continued:

"The situation at the Chu family... is not very optimistic either."

“Zhou Heng’s industrial chain is too deeply intertwined with that of the Chu family. This scandal has directly caused several major projects of the Chu family to come to a standstill.”

"Especially the pharmaceutical sector, which we have been operating in for a long time, is now facing a tight cash flow and has suffered heavy losses."

Li Yan added in a deep voice:

"Although the Chu family will not collapse overnight like the Zhou family, it will definitely suffer a great loss of vitality in a short period of time."

Mingxiu leaned to one side and sneered:

"What happened to the Chu family? What does it have to do with us?"

Yan Zhou glared at him as if he were an idiot:

"It has nothing to do with the Jing family, but our Jing family's wife still bears the surname Chu."

Mingxiu realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly shut her mouth.

The air fell silent for a moment...

Jing Min's gaze darkened slightly.

He tapped his fingertips lightly on the table twice, his voice low and deep:

"What impact will the downfall of the Chu family have on her?"

Yan Zhou calmly analyzed:

"With the Chu family suffering such a great loss, Old Master Chu will probably seek help from Madam,"

"Therefore, the Chu family's next choice will definitely be to hold onto you tightly,"

"The safest path for them is to ensure the stability of Miss Chu's position as Mrs. Jing,"

"In other words, they definitely won't allow your wife to divorce you."

Jing Min chuckled softly, his tone ambiguous:

"They won't allow it?"

He raised his eyes and slowly said:

"My wife, Jingmin's wife, has no right to listen to others."

Although he desperately hoped that their marriage would last and be stable.

Yan Zhou nodded.

Jingmin flipped through the documents on the desktop.

"Did the shareholders behind the 'Royal Shadow' cruise ship fund Zhou Heng's research?"

He picked up the deck of cards on the table.

First, hearts were ruled out, as the Atlantean royal family has no connection to him to this day.

Next came the square witch hazel – the Jin family.

He sneered. The only ones who could want to kill him were the Jin family.

He'll find out who these monsters and freaks are all from the Jin family sooner or later.

The remaining two are the white camellia with plum blossoms and the black lotus with spades.

The fact that one of them was able to bring Yun Yang to his side was, in a way, a way of saving him.

You could have just ignored him, but someone interfering out of nowhere must know him…

While he was still deep in thought…

Yan Zhou opened the tablet in his hand and said...

"President Jing, the data on the toxins in your body that Parker transmitted earlier does indeed match the data leaked from Zhou Heng's experiment very closely,"

He connected the tablet to the large screen in the study for projection.

The experiment led by Zhou Heng is called the "MN-1 Neural Modulation Project".

"The core research direction is to use special drugs to interfere with the hippocampus of the human brain to achieve 'selective amnesia' and 'enhanced obedience'."

In other words, the ultimate goal of this drug technology is to "make people lose certain specific memories,"

"At the same time, it increases dependence on specific people or instructions."

"This constitutes research that is highly unethical."

Mingxiu leaned against the bookshelf, crossed her arms, and muttered a complaint.

"That's insane! It's just wiping someone's memory and turning them into an obedient puppet, isn't it?"

Yan Zhou nodded.

He looked at Jingmin and continued explaining the content on the big screen.

“But according to Parker’s analysis, your symptoms were relatively mild five years ago,”

"They only experience amnesia, mood swings, and insomnia, but have not completely lost consciousness."
