At lunch, Tang Ganwen ate the most. He commented as he ate, "Ling Ran, your cooking skills are really good. Mm, it's even better than what our cafeteria chef cooks."

Ling Ran rolled his eyes at him, "Even food can't stop your mouth."

Tang Ganwen nodded, "When you enjoy a meal, you have to express your feelings."

After dinner, Tang Ganwen insisted on washing the dishes, so Ling Ran pushed him out the door. "Leave now! Don't provoke me to beat you up! You'll be embarrassed in front of so many teammates."

Tang Ganwen grinned, put his hands behind his back and walked away with a figure eight step, feeling relieved!

Ling Ran looked at Zhou Xiang aggrievedly, "Wife, did you see how he bullied me?"

Zhou Xiang smiled, "Okay, don't get angry, he won't tease you anymore, right?"

"No! I see that wicked grin of his and it makes me want to hit him."

Zhou Xiang ignored him and said, "Since you don't want him to wash the dishes, go wash them yourself! I need to take a nap."

Not long after, Tang Ganwen, who had left, came back and found Ling Ran. "Did you ask someone to investigate the woman in Zhima Hutong in Beijing?"

"Yes, is there any news?"

"I just called this phone. The woman said she bought some medicine from outside. She met a girl at the entrance of the alley."

It turned out that after being rejected by Jin Chao, the woman cursed at the entrance of the alley with an ugly face. A little girl passing by heard it. The little girl took a few steps back to her side and asked her with concern if she was okay.

She told the girl about her grievances, and the girl said she had some medicine that could help her fulfill her wish. She spent 50 yuan to buy it, and the girl also gave her a little bit of drugs as a gift.

The little girl later asked her about it and learned that she had been drugged and had never shown up since.

Ling Ran could already guess that this little girl was the pharmaceutical genius of the Kong family, but he had no way of knowing whether she did it on purpose or it was a spur-of-the-moment idea.

But why did she go to Zhima Hutong? My aunt's house was also in that hutong.

After Zhou Xiang learned about it, he shook his head and said, "I can't take care of my aunt. I'll call my uncle-in-law to remind him in the evening.

However, we can't let that woman off easy. The fake pregnancy powder is too poisonous. She actually wants An Wen's life? First, have someone find trouble with her and make her family restless. When she's not around, her family is fine. When she's around, strange things happen. I want her to be driven away by her family."

"Okay! I'll notify them."

Someone came over and called Ling Ran to get some dog food, and Ling Ran asked someone to wait outside for him for two minutes.

Zhou Xiang moved the dog food out of the space, Ling Ran moved the food out of the ring to collect the dog food, and Zhou Xiang used the ring to collect the food.

After the exchange, Ling Ran told his wife not to run around and wait for him to come back.

After Ling Ran left, Zhou Xiang was so bored that he moved a small stool and sat at the door in a daze, wondering who the higher-ups would find to break the formation.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law."

"Um?"

Zhou Xiang came back to his senses and saw a woman standing next to Tang Ganwen. She was the same woman in his elder brother's painting, but her face was as pale as a ghost.

"Sister-in-law, let me introduce you. This is Kong Xianxian, the talented person we invited. Miss Kong, and this is Zhou Xiang, the discoverer of this place."

Kong? Zhou Xiang narrowed his eyes slightly and stood up from the small stool. Was he planning to officially appear before him?

Zhou Xiang felt that this was the way it should be. Where would the higher-ups find talented individuals anytime soon? It was only right for the Kong family to be active in the circle in order to return. They hit it off immediately.

Zhou Xiang extended his hand, "Hello, Miss Kong!"

"Hello, Miss Zhou!" A hand that was white to the bone and cold held hers.

Zhou Xiang quickly retracted his hand, "I'm sorry, your hand is too cold, like ice. Also, I don't like being called Miss. If you want to, just call me Zhou Xiang, and if you want to, just call me Miss Zhou."

"Miss Zhou." The woman nodded lightly, with a sense of distance.

Tang Ganwen smiled and said, "You two women are the only ones here right now. You can talk to each other when you have time. Now, let's go to the Huai River and designate a spot so we can intercept the flow."

"OK."

Zhou Xiang closed the door and followed the two men to the Huai River.

In order to conceal himself, Zhou Xiang deliberately expanded the range a lot, so the range of Kong Xianxian's fingers was much smaller than Zhou Xiang's.

Zhou Xiang shook his head and sighed, "Ms. Kong, the area we're looking at is very large. Will it affect the later work if you only point out such a small area?"

Kong Xianxian said calmly, "If I'm not mistaken, what you saw was a formation. The range and time inside the formation space are different from those outside. I heard that Miss Zhou has been missing for ten months. What happened during this time?"

Zhou Xiang looked at Tang Ganwen, "Captain, is she interrogating me?"

Tang Ganwen scratched his head. Such a strong smell of gunpowder?

"You don't have to tell me. The inquiry hasn't started yet, and the higher-ups haven't sent anyone down yet."

Zhou Xiang nodded. "That's good. I should be careful with everything I say and do. I don't want anyone with ulterior motives to steal important information. If that happens, there will be nothing inside, and I will be blamed for lying about military intelligence."

Kong Xianxian said lightly: "The heart of a villain."

Zhou Xiang snorted, "That's better than taking your anger out on innocent people! It's disgusting like a rat in the gutter, using the lives of innocent people as rafts. It's too despicable. So, I'd better take precautions before it happens!"

Kong Xianxian frowned. It seemed like Zhou Xiang was not completely clueless. But, innocent people? Did Youran do something again?

"Your words are profound, please enlighten me."

Zhou Xiang chuckled, his laughter very fake. "Give me advice? Do I dare? Am I not waiting for someone's verdict? As the saying goes, every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. Miss Kong, do you understand this? Even if you want to punish all nine clans, it seems that this innocent person is not among my seven clans, right?

An ancient family? Haha, all show and nostrils, but rotten inside. And yet they have such a nose that looks up to the sky. I wonder, when it rains, don’t those noses that look up to the sky get filled with rainwater?

"Pfft," Tang Ganwen covered his mouth and waved at the two women, "You guys chat, you guys chat, I'll go get someone to prepare to intercept the flow."

Having said that, he turned and ran away.

Kong Xianxian had already found out everything about Zhou Xiang, knowing that she was quite a talker! When she had been asking around, she had only heard about other people's affairs, which she had just treated as a joke. Now that she was experiencing it herself, it was truly unbearable.

Zhou Xiang looked at her ugly face and sneered, "What? Are you angry because of shame? Come on, spread the powder! You can use drugs, aphrodisiacs, and fake pregnancy drugs. You love playing dirty, don't you?

This is the upbringing of your ancient family. We mortals have cheap lives and can only passively accept and resign ourselves to our fate. We can only pray that you still have a trace of conscience, or show some mercy with a teasing attitude, and when you press down on us ants, use less force, even less, so that we can still survive and have a chance to escape.

Haha, what a proud ancient family!

I tell you, Miss Kong Xianxian, I don't care how old that little girl is. If she dares to appear in front of me, I will make sure she feels what it's like to be pregnant. Doesn't she like to test other people's antidotes? Coincidentally, I like it too! If you have the guts, let's face it head-on! "
