L country border
In country L, this season is their rainy season, so the river has a huge volume of water, and the banks of the river are covered with wild grass that is half a person tall, and beyond that, there are jungles.
The wet, sweltering, and thorny terrain made it an extremely difficult place for wilderness survival.
Gong Chengjue lowered his breath. His clothes, which were soaked through but now half-dry, felt sticky and uncomfortable.
His wounds were so painful they had gone numb, and he could feel that they were infected.
He had a persistent high fever, and he was so delirious from the fever that he was somewhat mentally impaired.
However, he managed to stay clear-headed and escape the pursuing enemies. In his current condition, if he were to confront them head-on, even in a one-on-one fight, he would find it difficult to win.
"Search. He couldn't possibly have gotten out of this river area." In the distance, someone spoke in a language that was English mixed with local words.
"Hoo~" Gong Chengjue exhaled deeply, then dragged his exhausted, feverish body into the jungle behind him.
There are unknown dangers inside, and there may be all sorts of poisonous insects and ants, but if he stays here, he has no chance of survival.
The river swept him to the border of Country L. He wondered if diplomatic arrangements had been made, and whether his uncle's people could cross the border to find him.
Before that, he had to learn how to protect himself.

N City
Anhe Group
Ms. An was taken aback when she received Su Ziqing's call saying she was downstairs at Anhe Group.
Why is Su Ziqing coming to N City at this time?
"Let Miss Su come up." Miss An instructed her secretary to personally go downstairs and bring Su Ziqing up.
She put down the phone and looked at Zhou Ruoling, who was still in her office. "Su Ziqing came to see me."
Zhou Ruoling shrugged. "What a coincidence."
Miss An looked at her, a hint of helplessness in her eyes, "Would you like to leave for a moment?"
"Then I'll go lie down in your lounge for a while." Zhou Ruoling had no intention of leaving.
Miss An hummed in agreement, her eyes filled with a hint of doting. "Go ahead, just don't suddenly show up and cause trouble."
Zhou Ruoling chuckled, "What if I cause trouble?"
"What else can we do? Clean up your mess." Miss An turned her gaze back to the documents. "Go on, she should be here soon."
Su Ziqing was led up by her secretary and her sharp eyes spotted the steaming coffee on the office coffee table.
Is this a place where guests have just passed by?
Without giving it much thought, she directly apologized to Miss An, saying, "Miss An, I'm sorry to bother you without an appointment."
Miss An's neat short hair, exquisite makeup, and slightly aggressive demeanor make her a complete mature and sophisticated woman.
She stood up, wearing a rather androgynous white suit, a white shirt, and white trousers.
Su Ziqing had always felt that this kind of clothing was a bit masculine; she preferred a shirt paired with a skirt.
But looking at Miss An like this now, I feel that this way seems to be more efficient?
She hesitated, wondering if she should also cut her hair short and dress like that.
I heard Miss An is a lesbian...
To be honest, she herself is straight, but looking at Miss An like this, she is somewhat tempted.
Miss An noticed her looking at her and teased with a smile, "Why is Miss Su looking at me like that?"
"I'm completely captivated by Miss An's handsome and charming demeanor. I truly admire her ability to switch between different styles so effortlessly, perfectly embodying both handsome and charming, and alluring and captivating." Su Ziqing spoke from the heart.
"Pour Miss Su a cup of coffee," Miss An instructed her secretary.
The secretary was about to take the hot coffee away from the coffee table, but Miss An stopped her, saying, "No need."
Then she picked up the coffee that looked like it belonged to a customer and took a sip.
Su Ziqing paused for a moment, then guessed that the guest she had just met must have been someone very important to Miss An. If she was not mistaken, the person should still be here.
There's usually a lounge in the office. I guess she's still in the lounge. I just smelled a faint perfume scent and thought it was Miss An's. But now that Miss An is close by, it's not that perfume.
However, these private matters were not of interest to Su Ziqing. She looked at Miss An and directly stated her purpose.
“Ms. An, you have been in charge of Anhe Group for quite some time now, and I would like to learn some things from you.”
Miss An put down her coffee and gave a slight smile. "Miss Su, you're too kind. You two hit it off immediately and get along very well. You even took time out of your busy schedule to attend my birthday party last time. There's no need to be so polite now. May I ask what you'd like to ask?"
"Does Miss An know how to find certain organizations internationally?" Su Ziqing asked bluntly, looking directly at Miss An.
Miss An didn't even show a slight surprise upon hearing this; her expression was as natural as if Su Ziqing were asking, "How's the weather today?"
"What does Miss Su want to do?" This question indicated that she knew.
"There's something I need to take care of," Su Ziqing said.
Miss An shook her head. "Miss Su, you've only been in the business world for a short time. Don't be so hasty."
"You've misunderstood. I just want to find someone." Time is too tight; she can't just sit here and wait.
The more people you send out, the greater your chances of winning will be.
Miss An gave her a deep look. "Who are you looking for? Gong Chengjue?"
Su Ziqing frowned slightly and immediately denied it, "Why would I want to see Gong Chengjue?"
Miss An: "..."
Su Ziqing continued, "I cannot disclose the specifics of the matter. If Miss An is willing to help with this and make the connection, I would be extremely grateful. I promise that our group can offer appropriate concessions for the next cooperation."
Anyway, they won't let people work for free.
Miss An stood up, walked back to her desk, opened a locked drawer, took out a business card, and handed it to Su Ziqing.
"Although I don't know what you're planning to do, I still need to think it over carefully."
Su Ziqing took it. "Thank you."
Miss An pointed to her forehead, "Um, are you alright?"
Su Ziqing smiled, "Not good."
Miss An then asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Su Ziqing waved the business card in her hand, "This has already been a great help."
"It was just a small favor." Although she rarely did such a small favor for others.
Su Ziqing said very seriously, "Miss An trusts our friendship, and I am very touched. This is not just a small favor."
"You came to me because you trust me." That's how some friendships are—you see eye to eye. Of course, adults don't just have pure friendships. The most important thing is that we can cooperate and make money together in the future.
Su Ziqing didn't want to disturb them any longer, so she stood up and prepared to leave...
"Miss Su, please wait a moment." Zhou Ruoling came out of the lounge.
Miss An: "..."
Su Ziqing looked at Zhou Ruoling, who had appeared there, with slight surprise, "..."
