"Clang!" The cup slipped from his hand in an instant, and it looked like the cup of water was about to spill all over him and the hospital bed.
Startled, Aheng tugged at Wei Heng and nimbly caught the water glass in a flash: "Careful!"
And then...
She instinctively looked down and smiled, then realized she had Wei Heng completely pinned beneath her!
Ah Heng's smile froze on his face instantly—Holy crap!
Wei Heng looked up at her, his handsome face a kaleidoscope of colors, alternating between deathly pale, green, and red, his mind buzzing—
He must be crazy to suddenly think of kissing a "man," a complete stranger!
Moreover, those images were so realistic that it was as if he had really kissed the other person like that!
The two of them stood stiffly like two pieces of wood stacked together.
Ah Heng sprang up quickly, chuckled dryly, and said, "Well, I'm going to the restroom first. You can drink your water slowly!"
After saying that, she shoved the water glass into his hand, turned around, and ran out the door.
Wei Heng was left stiffly on the hospital bed, wondering if there was something wrong with his brain.
...
"Phew—" Ah Heng ran outside, exhaled, and felt a sense of relief, as if he had just escaped a disaster.
"Aheng!"
Ning Yuan's clear voice suddenly rang out behind her.
As soon as Aheng turned his head, he saw Ning Yuan coming over with her captain brother!
“Ning… Xiao Ning… why are you here!” She suddenly felt even more guilty, realizing she was facing a victim’s “family member”.
Ning Yuan immediately sensed something was wrong with her and instinctively grabbed her, anxiously and excitedly: "What's wrong? Did something happen to my brother?"
Ah Heng quickly pressed down on her shoulders: "It's okay, listen to me first..."
Then she told Ning Yuan everything.
Hearing this, Ning Yuan's eyes flashed with cold light, and she gritted her teeth: "Tang Zhenzhen! Who exactly did she collude with to harm my brother!"
Rong Zhaonan handed her the half-burnt candle and said in a deep voice, "This thing isn't something that can be found in the mainland. The hospitals here can't detect it, so I'll have someone send it to the capital to be tested."
Ning Yuan looked at the half-burnt candle, her brows furrowed: "If they can't find any residue in my brother's body, Tang Zhenzhen and the others will have plenty of excuses not to confess."
Decades later, some drugs that intoxicate or aphrodisiac people can no longer be detected in the victim's body the next day after ingestion.
This is still the technologically advanced 21st century.
It's only the 1980s now, and with the current domestic technology, it would be very difficult to find...
Rong Zhaonan said calmly, "This matter will not be handled by the police in the end. Because it involves your brother and drugs that are not available in China, it will be handed over to an internal investigation. You don't need to worry about insufficient evidence."
Ning Yuan was taken aback, but then she was completely relieved.
Once it's in Rong Zhaonan's hands, she believes he has the ability to make Tang Zhenzhen talk!
Ning Bingyu looked at the thing in Ning Yuan's hand, and suddenly frowned: "Can I take a look at this?"
Ning Yuan then noticed that he had actually followed her.
She asked in bewilderment, "Why haven't you left yet?"
A stiffness flashed across Ning Bingyu's refined and noble face.
There's nothing else to it, I just want to see what kind of "brother" could make this brat so concerned and lose her composure!
In terms of wealth, power, and status, what can compare to him?
He adjusted his frameless glasses and said coldly, "You ran out in the middle of the night, I have to give Mom an explanation."
Ning Yuan really wanted to roll her eyes at him—mind your own business and eat your own shit!
Rong Zhaonan suddenly asked, "Why does Young Master Ning want to see this?"
Ning Yuan then realized what was happening, and her eyes immediately lit up: "What, big brother, do you know where this thing came from?!"
Ning Bingyu: "..."
Rong Zhaonan: "..."
This woman is obviously opportunistic, and her ability to change her tune with the wind is incredibly smooth.
Hearing her call him "big brother" for the first time, Ning Bingyu scoffed, "I always thought you had a lot of backbone, but when you need someone's help, you become very smooth."
Suddenly, for the sake of another man, she was even willing to call him "big brother".
Ning Yuan's big eyes crinkled into a smile, and she said matter-of-factly, "Otherwise what? Should I have Mommy ask you?"
Another vein bulged on Ning Bingyu's forehead; this was a blatant threat!
He said coldly, "No need. This thing is American. It was originally developed by the CIA as an intelligence tool. After it was leaked, it became very popular among some high-end players in Europe and America."
Ning Yuan couldn't help but clench the candle in her hand: "Heh, where did Tang Zhenzhen get the ability to get such high-end international items?"
Ning Bingyu held out his hand to her: "Let me take a closer look."
Ning Yuan hesitated only for a moment before giving him the candle.
Ning Bingyu looked at the candle in his hand, noticed some markings under it, and suddenly paused, his brows furrowing.
"What? Did you find something?" Rong Zhaonan asked sharply.
Ning Bingyu looked at him and said calmly, "This is a very faint English abbreviation and number on it. It's an import label. You can find out which customs it was imported from. It looks a bit like the Hong Kong government's..."
Ning Yuan was taken aback. Imported by the Hong Kong government?
That's right. Hong Kong is the world's second largest free port and ranks among the top three in the world in terms of cargo throughput.
"Can you check?" Rong Zhaonan asked directly.
Ning Bingyu hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay, leave it to me."
Ning Yuan remained silent, unable to help but think that in her past life, she had also fallen into a deep sleep after eating and drinking at the New Year's Eve dinner.
When he woke up again, his older brother and Tang Zhenzhen had... consummated their marriage.
Now that I think about it, how similar is today's scene?
The only difference is that the person drugged at the dinner table has changed from herself to someone else. Tang Zhenzhen must have used the same methods to deal with her older brother and herself in her past life!
Some things are as subtle as a hidden thread—with just a few clues, you can guess a lot of the truth.
For example, Tang Zhenzhen must have come into contact with people from overseas in her past life?
Are the people from overseas trying to take down the boss?
Or... should we deal with her?
