In this world, some people are born with amazing talents in certain areas, and Rose is one of them.
Her father was once the biggest drug lord in the Golden Triangle, and she perfectly inherited her mother's amazing talent in chemistry, and can be said to have learned it by herself.
Rose was born to deal with poisons. When she was very young, she became her mother's most capable assistant in the laboratory.
If such a child was born in a healthy family, she would have achieved amazing things by now. Unfortunately, God did not show her special care.
Back then, the young and energetic Tang Jingyuan took Fang Le and Zhou Yaocheng's team out on a mission, but got lost in the jungle and broke into their territory, accidentally running into Interpol's net.
"She watched her parents being blown to pieces. The Interpol officers carrying out the mission suffered heavy casualties. The situation was extremely horrific. Although the drug den was busted, the police paid an extremely painful price, not to mention the unsung heroes who sacrificed their lives over the years collecting clues."
Tang Jingyuan narrated the tragic story in the calmest tone. Even if one is born in a peaceful era, there will still be endless disputes, but most ordinary people cannot feel it.
It was also during that actual combat that he truly realized the fragility of life.
"Back then, we provided fire support in the outer circle. It was me who noticed something was wrong and led the others to evacuate early. It was during the retreat that I ran into Rose, who was only ten years old. That's when I first met her. In a sense, I saved her life."
But he also participated in the roundup operation, and in a sense, he was also Rose's enemy.
Tang Jingyuan was only seventeen years old at that time, and she was only ten years old when she first saw Rose.
Rose once said that Tang Jingyuan was the only man besides her father who could give her a sense of security.
After Meigui's parents died, Tang Jingyuan took pity on her and used his connections to arrange for her to be placed in an orphanage with decent conditions. However, the psychologist who spoke with Tang Jingyuan at the time only said that Meigui had a somewhat eccentric personality and might have psychological problems.
"She's usually very calm. The orphanage observed her for a while and found nothing unusual about her. In fact, she was more well-behaved than the other children, so they didn't pay much attention to her. That's why I've been keeping in touch with her through letters."
Later, Tang Jingyuan left the army due to the changes in the Pei family in Jiangcheng, and never contacted Meigui again.
"So she is now..."
"Gu Feng and I are thinking that Rose might be following in her parents' footsteps. The poison Bai Lu has isn't widely available on the market yet, and many university professors can't even come up with high-precision purification methods. If it's Rose, I think it's possible."
Lu Anning lowered his head: "You know her very well."
"She already showed amazing talent back then. Judging by Bai Lu's current network of relationships, the person behind her is most likely Rose. In the drug world, as long as you have the skills, you can make a fortune anywhere."
Although Tang Jingyuan is not a drug enforcement officer, he still has some knowledge of this aspect.
In the underworld, the most sought-after thing is the "cook". Many big brothers would fight to the death for a good cook.
"People in their line of work will do anything for profit. It's no exaggeration to say they're demons crawling out of hell. Their crazy methods are even beyond your imagination. Ningning, there are many dangerous places in this world that you can't see. This time, I really don't want you to interfere."
After listening to Tang Jingyuan's story, Lu Anning fell completely silent.
She was not someone without self-awareness. This matter was far beyond her ability. No wonder her fourth brother repeatedly reminded her not to investigate further.
"Fortunately, she hasn't made a move on you yet. From now on, don't go see her alone."
Lu Anning took a deep breath. "Now that I know, I'll be more cautious. But I don't think she wants to kill me. If she did, I would have been sent away with Liu Quan a long time ago. Have you forgotten that time in the hospital? Now I remember, that nurse was Rose."
The details everywhere hinted at Rose's provocation to Tang Jingyuan, and she was more worried about Tang Jingyuan's safety.
"Are you sure she doesn't hate you?"
One is righteous, the other is dark. Rose has a twisted personality, so it is not impossible that she regards Tang Jingyuan as her enemy.
What would she do if she was more paranoid?
"Is Fourth Brother responsible for this matter?"
Tang Jingyuan nodded: "This is confidential. We have all signed a confidentiality agreement. I really can't tell you anything more."
Lu Anning understood and stopped asking further questions.
"How did Bai Lu know Meigui? And Bai Yue, could the three of them..."
Tang Jingyuan nodded slightly: "At present, it is very likely. Bai Yue has been alive all these years, but we don't know what kind of environment he lives in. Maybe..."
That is the worst possible scenario!
Lu Anning had a despicable idea: "Isn't Bai Yue asking my brother to treat his leg? If they are really in the same group, then Bai Lu must know a lot. Can we make a deal with Bai Lu?"
"You want Bai Lu to reveal everything she knows in exchange for healing Bai Yue's leg?"
"Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures."
"Your brother had thought of this idea a long time ago, but no one is sure how much affection remains between siblings who have been separated for so many years. When it comes to interests, human nature cannot stand the test."
Lu Anning was suddenly shocked: "Then will my mother be in danger?"
"Gu Feng has considered this and has arranged for someone to follow her and protect her safety. Don't worry!"
Lu Anning breathed a sigh of relief. Now that she was on guard, it wouldn't be so easy for Rose to take action.
Unexpectedly, three days later, Lu Anning received another bad news: Gu Yu was missing.
