This is a threat!
Li Ying paused, gently shook her son's little hand, and replied casually, "Mrs. Chang, this is a new society, not the Chang family's world anymore."
“In Jiangcheng, that’s right.” Mrs. Chang’s face grew even colder. “Even a powerful dragon can’t suppress a local snake. Our Chang family has contributed a lot to getting this far.”
"If that's the case, then Mrs. Chang should revoke her special privileges, and the group will disperse, won't it?"
Mrs. Chang looked at Li Ying as if she were an idiot.
Li Ying understood: "I know, it's because Boss Hu has a new backer, and this backer is so powerful that even the Chang family can't shake him."
Mrs. Chang's expression of disdain changed to one of admiration.
"You're not stupid, you're just a bit stubborn."
Li Ying smiled and said, "Mrs. Chang, I don't know why you want to cooperate with me, but I am a doctor. I can only save lives, not kill them."
"Won't it be torturous?" Mrs. Chang asked again.
Li Ying smiled and said, "Mrs. Chang, please feel free to tell me what you want to do."
"If you can help me torture that guy surnamed Hu, I will tell you about his weakness and the powerful backer behind him."
That's a very tempting offer.
"Even if I don't help you, you won't be able to wait much longer. Boss Hu's body is already exhausted, and he will die soon."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chang smiled and said, "I knew it! I knew it! This is the kind of end a man like him should have, one who is ungrateful and abandons his wife!"
On the way back from the Chang family's house, no one said a word.
"Sister Yingying, how about I take Chenchen back to the capital first?" Lu Qingwan realized the danger and felt that if she stayed any longer, she would lose her life.
"We can't leave now. We're being watched by the Chang family, and also by Boss Hu."
"What should we do then? I'll call my older brother and ask him to come and help." Lu Qingwan refused to believe that someone from the capital couldn't handle Jiangcheng.
"Qingwan, what we need to do now is stay calm."
“Yes, calm down.” Jing Yingyan analyzed: “The Chang family used to be a big family. It’s normal that they are somewhat angry now because they are suppressed by Boss Hu. It’s just that the Chang family has no one in the officialdom except for money, so they are wary of the power behind Boss Hu.”
"She's making us risk our lives to harm Boss Hu. Isn't that forcing us to our deaths?" Lu Qingwan said angrily.
"Actually, her idea is good. There are many uncertainties in treating illnesses, and it's normal for death to occur during treatment. As long as you don't investigate the root cause, you won't find anything." Li Ying thought so too, but Boss Hu didn't have much time left to live, and risking killing him would be a losing proposition.
Late at night, Jing Yingyan heard a noise, got up, opened the door, and slipped into the room alone.
"This is all the information I have. Boss Hu's backer is the Nan family, but I think there are other people behind him."
Jing Yingyan handed a business plan to the other party.
"This plan is excellent."
Jing Yingyan's eyes darkened: "This is a plan made by Ye Jingchi. He gave it to me before he left."
Upon hearing this, the other person looked at Jing Yingyan and asked, "Is Ye Jingchi really dead?"
Jing Yingyan remained noncommittal, saying, "Leave immediately after you've finished reading!"
Hearing the noise, Li Ying got up, walked to the door, but after thinking for a moment, she withdrew her hand and did not go out.
In Jiangcheng, their situation is very dangerous, and it's best not to cause any unnecessary trouble.
Early in the morning, Li Ying took Chi En to another group, where Boss Hu had already found all the medicinal herbs on Li Ying's list.
Judging from the effects of the medicine, Li Ying guessed that the backer behind Boss Hu was the Nan family, because only the Nan family had such a complete range of medicinal materials.
"Prepare the herbs as I instructed. This is a topical ointment. Apply it once in the morning and once in the evening."
Boss Hu took it, looked at it, and nodded: "If it works well, I can let you see Zhou Qi tomorrow."
"I hope you, Boss Hu, will keep your word!"
When she came out, she ran into that alluring woman again, who blocked Li Ying's way.
"Comrade Li Ying, I heard from Lao Hu that your medical skills are really good. I would like to get some medicine that can help me get pregnant."
As she spoke, the woman pulled a wad of banknotes from her bosom.
Li Ying coldly replied, "I only treat Boss Hu; I won't treat anyone else!"
"You..." the woman sneered, "Don't think I don't know what illness he has. Do you really think your medicine can cure him?"
Li Ying listened silently, then smiled and said, "My master is Master Qian, a world-renowned divine doctor, so I have the ability to cure him."
"This kind of person would be a disaster even if cured!"
Li Ying was surprised.
Realizing she had lost her composure, the woman said, "I just want to leave him an heir, I just want to have his child, there's really no other way?"
“Yes,” Chi En interjected, “You can just have one with someone else.”
Li Ying glanced at Chi En. This kid usually seemed so serious, but she never expected him to say such disobedient things.
The woman was stunned, then angry: "I may not be a good woman, but how can someone else take my place when it comes to childbirth?"
"Then there's nothing we can do."
Chi En rolled her eyes at the woman.
“Chi En is right, there is no other way. However, since you are so self-disciplined, let’s just forget about it.”
Li Ying and Chi En left without giving the woman a chance to say anything more.
On the way back, Li Ying answered Chi En's questions.
"You mean this woman can't have children? Then why did she insist on telling us she wanted to have a child for that man surnamed Hu?"
"Because Boss Hu will believe what I say, understand!"
Chi En spat, "Everyone wants to take advantage of us, I'm speechless!"
"The Nan family should be the backer of this gang."
Chi En was even more surprised: "The Nan family can't be like this, can they? Getting entangled with a bunch of people is never a good thing."
"Perhaps not the entire Nan family, but just one member of the Nan family," Li Ying speculated.
She also said this to Jing Yingyan, wanting to hear his opinion.
Jing Yingyan had to admire Li Ying; she could deduce that the group's backer was the Nan family just from a single medicinal herb.
“You’re right. Madam Chi and I went to the Nan family. The Nan family doesn’t have a good impression of the gang. I think the gang’s backer is someone from the Nan family. They’re staying at the Nan family to help the gang.”
"Can't the government manage this?"
"If we could manage it, we wouldn't have alerted the capital. We investigated a group before, and in the ensuing bloody battle, many police officers were injured. So the current situation is that we must strike decisively and wipe them all out in one fell swoop."
We must wipe them out in one fell swoop to prevent them from reigniting.
Li Ying looked at Jing Yingyan and understood: "You came with me on a mission?"
Jing Yingyan didn't want to explain too clearly, so he just gave an awkward smile.
Li Ying understood; everyone was using her.
"All I want is for Zhou Qi to be safe, and for all of us to be safe!"
Jing Yingyan can complete this mission, but he must ensure the safety of all of them; otherwise, she will never forgive him!
