"This time it's been made into the news, and they've shown us the injuries and the fact that the patient has really recovered. There's definitely enough reason to investigate Nie's groundbreaking medical advancements."

"I'm afraid things won't go as Nie Xi wishes. Nie Qu isn't stupid; he won't let his family take risks for a mere sister who's married off to R country," Si Yu analyzed.

Lin Changli sneered: "Just because Nie Qu can't doesn't mean Lan Yun can't. The incident at the hot spring was clearly a conspiracy between the two of them to target Yu Wei."

"This matter is not good for the Nie family, but Lan Yun still did it. She probably had something on her hands. Threats are endless. Nie Xi will definitely go to Lan Yun again in order to recover his hands."

Yu Wei said seriously, "We need to keep a close eye on this; perhaps this is an opportunity to learn more about the research base!"

No matter what internal strife the Nie family causes, it's none of their business. Everyone will remember why they came back.

In the initial plan, Kongsang was just a stepping stone to get closer to the Nie family, but now that this stepping stone is in everyone's mind, who would dare to say that it is insignificant?

The first batch of one hundred gene-enhancing drugs has reached Kongsang's hands, but the sincerity she was waiting for has not yet arrived. Jinghe William is still in Kyoto, but he doesn't seem to be making any moves.

A deal that's rushed isn't a deal, and Kong Sang didn't want Jinghe William to think she couldn't live without him, so naturally she wouldn't urge him.

Since we have the time, we might as well arm the base first.

Not only did Qi Yun Shen's money arrive, but Lin Chang Li also kept his word, single-handedly withstanding the pressure from the Lin family and allocating a large amount of cash flow to her.

Kongsang did not want to expose Jiangcheng Zhang San, and this huge sum of money was deposited into hundreds of accounts, circulating back and forth many times before it began to flow to its final destination.

The two men, who appeared incredibly generous on the surface, were secretly keeping track of where the funds went. However, Kong Sang's constant handling of the funds was precisely to prevent the two men from investigating, so it wouldn't be so easy to find out.

Ultimately, many accounts showed that the funds were squandered on some truly absurd things.

For example, buying things far exceeding their value and selling them at a low price, or the countless items related to luxury goods...

The two of them knew, of course, that Kongsang was using these methods to cover things up, but the large outflow of funds from Country C was hard to conceal. Kongsang was definitely doing something big behind the back of the Nie family.

Lin Changli and Qi Yunshen were very curious and were also watching silently.

That cry back then was definitely not in vain. My dear aunt secretly hired someone to deal with Nie Jingxing. On his way to work, Nie Jingxing's car was overturned and totaled.

A suicide bomber detonated in the street—a terrifying scene that threatened national security—was naturally avoided by the media, who instead blamed it on an accident.

Kong Sang still has to acknowledge Nie Xi's actions; they were incredibly effective. As expected of the Nie family, if you injure me with a needle, I'll retaliate with a knife.

Her older brother wasn't invincible; even if he wasn't seriously injured, he still suffered minor scratches, and some of his men were killed or wounded.

When the Kongsang people arrived at the hospital, the trending topics exploded again, not because of reports of Nie Jingxing's injury, but because of a pornographic video.

A video of Lucky William, the third son of the William family, and the First Lady of Country R engaging in a passionate encounter in a hot spring circulated for a full half hour before being banned...

Let's just say this is so obvious. With the internet speeds these days, let alone half an hour, even if it were just 3 seconds, this video would be sent to the R country's head of state's email.

When she entered the ward, she overheard Nie Jingxing on the phone. She didn't hear anything else, but she did hear him mention "Young Master William"...

Her heart sank, but her face was filled with worry as she entered the ward: "Brother, how are your injuries?"

Nie Jingxing had some bandages wrapped around his body, but they were just scrapes from the shattered fragments of the explosion, nothing serious.

Seeing Kong Sang arrive, he hung up the phone and reached out his hand.

Kong Sang naturally reached out and put her arm around him, and he carried her to the hospital bed. The blanket covered her lower body, and she sat on the hospital bed side by side with Nie Jingxing.

"It's okay, just wear more next time."

"Hehe, bro, you're injured and you're still concerned about what I'm wearing. What, can't I even show a little bit of my leg?"

Nie Jingxing said bluntly, "It's not okay, but if I'm not feeling well, you'll catch a cold too."

Kong Sang's peach blossom eyes held a hidden glint, and she said with a playful tone, "Dear brother, do you know what poison wrapped in honey is? You are like that. Your concern for me always makes me feel like there's a knife in my hand?"

"You want to kill me?" Nie Jingxing asked, his deep eyes fixed on Kong Sang.

Kongsang looked back expressionlessly, then quickly smiled.

She put her arms around Nie Jingxing's shoulders: "How could that be? My brother is gone, how am I supposed to live in the Nie family?"

The girl spoke in a sweet, delicate tone, but her words carried a chilling coldness.

The two embraced intimately, yet the temperature didn't rise at all where their hearts touched.

Hurried footsteps approached: "Brother... Brother, are you alright..."

The boy, who nearly tripped as he entered the room in a panic, stopped talking when he saw the man and woman embracing on the bed.

His face contorted in a barely concealed grimace as he reached out to grab Kong Sang.

He said resentfully, "Brother, why? Why do you only have eyes for my sister? I'm your brother too, why don't you look at me?"

Unsurprisingly, Nie Jingxing blocked his hand: "Get lost!"

One word is absolutely powerful. Excited, Nie Yan disregarded everything and used his mutated ability. His blood seeped through his skin and formed a long rope like a blood snake, which bound Kong Sang's waist, trying to drag him off the bed.

A black spatial blade appeared out of nowhere, instantly severing the blood rope and cutting towards Nie Yan.

Nie Yan didn't dodge at all, watching with a mix of grievance and excitement as Nie Jingxing's power slashed towards him, waiting to endure the pain bestowed by his elder brother. Only in this way could he feel closer to his elder brother.

Unfortunately, Nie Jingxing was even stingy with this pain.

He stopped abruptly and said again, "Get lost, don't you understand?"

Nie Yan's angelic, sunny smile vanished, and a tear rolled down his cheek. It was as if this blow was more painful than a direct hit. He glanced at the two embracing figures, clenched his fists, and left.

"Brother is so good to Ayan, I'm even jealous." Kong Sang placed her slender hand on Nie Jingxing's shoulder and said cryptically.

Nie Jingxing didn't explain, but grabbed Kong Sang by the back of the neck, pressed his forehead against hers, and said, "You are the most important."

Kong Sang's eyes trembled slightly. She knew that Nie Jingxing was a man who disdained to lie; if he said something, it was the truth.

This time, Nie Jingxing didn't hurt her, nor did he watch over her as closely as he had in the previous life, almost to the point of chaining her feet.

If she didn't have the despairing memories of her past life, she might have become infatuated with this man...

"Such a good relationship between siblings? I really envy President Nie!" The alluring voice, tinged with coldness, rang out at the door.

Kong Sang pushed Nie Jingxing away and turned around. Yu Wei was standing at the door with Lin Changli...

Yu Wei is the second young lady of the Nie family, so it's normal for her to come and see her brother. What is Lin Changli doing here?
