Stargazing Garden...
Gong Ning's calm, watery eyes were fixed on the man lying on the bed.
His face was slightly pale, and his usually thin and sexy lips were now dry and shriveled. The wound on his forehead had been bandaged.
This颓废憔悴 (颓废憔悴 is a Chinese word that means decadent, haggard, or dejected) appearance unconsciously brought three words to Gong Ning's mind...
Big brother...
A few flashes of pain and sorrow, unnoticed even by herself, flickered in her eyes...
The girl suddenly clutched her chest, her breath coming in short gasps.
Why... does thinking of these words cause my heart to ache and feel so bad?
The pain was so intense that she couldn't help but want to cry...
Big brother, who is big brother?
Gong Ning instinctively grabbed Yan Jingzhou's hand, gripping it tightly, as if she had grasped the most important ray of light in her life...
Before long, fine beads of sweat appeared on her fair forehead.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and Gong Ning abruptly relaxed her furrowed brows.
I let out a soft breath, still shaken by the inexplicable pain I had just experienced.
After catching her breath, she stood up to open the door. It was Bai Yi who came in. "Miss, the range of suspects behind the murder has been identified!"
Gong Ning felt a slight sense of relief, then glanced at Yan Jingzhou, who was still fast asleep, and pursed her lips, "Have you found out who it was?"
"Not yet, but we've identified a general direction!"
Thinking of the wound on Yan Jingzhou's forehead, and then of the terrifying scene from last night.
Gong Ning's eyes turned slightly cold, and a strange smile slowly curved her lips. "Take me with you. Perhaps... I can help you!"
Bai Yi was slightly taken aback. He looked down at the soft and sweet girl in front of him, who used to only stay in his husband's arms and act coquettishly. He was speechless for a moment.
After a few moments of silence, he still took Gong Ning to the most central tower in Xingzhan Garden.
Inside, there are the world's most advanced precision instruments. The walls are covered with various sophisticated electronic screens, which are filled with densely packed, constantly scrolling codes.
Upon seeing Gong Ning enter, everyone present was instinctively surprised.
What brings this little rascal here?
Realizing what was happening, they all bowed and greeted her, "Hello, Miss Gong!"
"I'm Xiao Hong!"
"I'm Xiao Cheng!"
"I'm Xiao Huang!"
"I'm Little Green!"
"I'm Xiao Lan!"
"I am Xiao Dian!"
"I am Xiao Zi!"
Gong Ning's lips twitched. This name...
Then she smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry about me, everyone. Keep up your work. I'm just here to take a look around!"
Bai Yi made her a glass of juice. "Miss, please find a place to sit. Just let me know if you need anything!"
"Are there any spare instruments here?" Gong Ning took the orange juice from his hand, her clear eyes scanning the surroundings, and said softly, "Then, cut the line that's currently blocking you, let me see! Let's see if we can find the person!"
Gong Ning's voice was very low, but it was still accidentally overheard by everyone.
The buzzing whispers that had been exchanging messages suddenly disappeared.
The fingers that had been rapidly typing on the keyboard gradually stopped.
Then, the tense and serious atmosphere in the tower's instrument room gradually fell into a deathly silence.
Everyone looked at Gong Ning in unison, a few flashes of surprise in their eyes.
The next moment, a sense of contempt involuntarily welled up in my heart.
They thought this was just children playing house, and that a dozen of them were working together to solve a difficult problem for her.
Is this Miss Gong, who usually only acts spoiled and makes a fuss with Mr. Gong, joking?
Why doesn't this pampered young lady stay at home? Why does she come here and spout nonsense? Is she just bored?
Those present were all high-end talents carefully cultivated by the Yan clan, and they inevitably harbored a bit of arrogance in their respective professional fields.
In addition, with the problem remaining unsolved for a long time, the Rainbow brothers were already feeling restless.
Gong Ning's nonchalant tone inadvertently provoked everyone's dissatisfaction.
Even Bai Zi, the youngest among them, was angered by her flippant tone. Her words, devoid of the previous respect, rang out, "Miss, we understand your eagerness to know who the mastermind is, and we know you're upset about the master's injury, but can't you see we're working on solving the case?... Why are you making things worse here!"
"Shut up!"
Bai interrupted him, sternly rebuking him and glaring at Xiao Zi, "Sit back down, what business is it of yours?"
"Boss, it's definitely her..."
Deliberately causing trouble...
After seeing the obvious warning in Bai's eyes, Xiao Zi suddenly paused.
Suddenly I realized that Gong Ning is not a simple little girl.
She is also the prospective clan chief's wife of the Yan clan.
She recalled how much her husband used to dote on her...
Xiao Zi's face suddenly turned pale, and she murmured a few times.
He suddenly turned to Gong Ning, bowed slightly, and apologized sincerely, "Miss Gong, I'm sorry, I was just speaking rashly and impulsively. Please don't take it to heart!"
He returned to his seat with an embarrassed expression, a few unpleasant resentments flashing in his eyes.
This little farce suddenly plunged the somewhat noisy control room into a slightly incongruous atmosphere of tranquility.
Bai Yi's eyes held a hint of apology. "Miss, please don't mind. Xiao Zi is still a child, and it's inevitable that he'll act impulsively. Please don't mind."
Gong Ning's dark eyes shifted slightly, her gaze sweeping lightly over the person typing on the keyboard.
Every single one of them had their facial muscles taut.
He was clearly trying his best to suppress his anger.
A slight smile played on her lips, tinged with amusement. "Why is he called Xiao Zi? Such a...feminine name. Did his parents give it to him?"
