“Probably related to your healing abilities, right?”
Ning Yu didn't turn her head but softly asked Shen Yiyue, who was sitting beside her.
Upon hearing Ning Yu's words, Shen Yiyue suddenly realized:
“That explains it! It was so exhausting when I treated him back then...”
Ning Yu also found Shen Yiyue's abilities fascinating. She hadn't expected that even Wu Di's emotional disorder could be restored to a healthy state.
She suddenly had an idea. Since even Wu Di's issues could be fixed, could Wanheng's sister's depression also be treated by repairing the physiological abnormalities?
Although she wasn't entirely sure if the illness was related to physiological structures, it seemed worth a try.
It's just a pity...
Ning Yu was lost in thought while driving, but she couldn't help feeling that Shen Yiyue was sneaking glances at her.
She gently turned her head, using a barely noticeable glance to look at the passenger seat next to her.
Sure enough, she was looking at me. What is this girl thinking?
“What are you looking at?”
Ning Yu suddenly asked.
“Huh?”
Shen Yiyue hadn't expected such a small movement to be noticed by Ning Yu and quickly tried to cover it up, then playfully retorted:
“What if I am?”
“You look like a fool...”
Seeing her playful demeanor, Ning Yu chuckled and shook her head.
Shen Yiyue now stared straight ahead. The back seat was spacious, so she reclined her seat without worrying about disturbing the couple behind them, who were whispering sweet nothings. She lay back and gazed at the ceiling.
The sunroof wasn't open, but through the glass, she could still see the clear blue sky and found herself lost in thought.
Soon, the four of them would arrive at the base.
Ning Yu then spoke up:
“What about Zhuang Wugou's situation?”
The two in the back had been quietly discussing something earlier, and Ning Yu had overheard them clearly.
“Actually, many people outside the exploration and research teams don't know Zhuang Wugou exists.”
Ji Mengyao said.
“He often says that phrase, you know? Something about... up... down...”
“'The highest ruler is not known by the people.'”
Wu Di chimed in, showing he had a better memory.
“He’s always been low-key. Many people know there’s someone coordinating things at Fangzhou, but they don’t know who it is.”
“So, that’s actually good news?”
Ning Yu pondered, then casually added:
“I have a friend who has records of this and previous missing missions.”
Shen Yiyue seemed to catch on:
“No wonder when I first saw Ning Yu, she already knew something had happened to Wu Di!”
“This friend you mentioned... could it be...”
Ji Mengyao looked suspicious, unsure how Ning Yu had access to mission records.
“No, you’re overthinking. He’s from the research team, Lin Hao. I used to... well, it’s a long story, but I asked him to help investigate.”
“He might be able to provide some assistance from the research team to help solve this issue.”
Ning Yu said, referring to the issue of how Fangzhou would continue to function in the future.
“I see.”
Ji Mengyao nodded.
They had already arrived at the base entrance, and Ning Yu slowed the car to pass through the checkpoint.
Looking through the gates of Fangzhou, she saw people bustling about, the place still thriving with activity.
...
“What?! You want me to take over Zhuang Wugou’s duties?”
After explaining today’s events to Lin Hao, Ning Yu’s proposal shocked him.
“Don’t you want to uncover the cause of this virus? What better position to be in than this one?”
Ning Yu gently persuaded, hoping Fangzhou wouldn’t fall apart and start infighting.
She also wanted to use this opportunity to continuously train and strengthen herself and Shen Yiyue.
“That Yan Xing guy mentioned that you were Zhuang Wugou’s most ‘trusted’ person, didn’t he?”
“Even though he still tried to harm you, as far as everyone else is concerned, you’re the most suitable candidate.”
Ning Yu felt her reasoning was sound. In fact, she had been plotting how to rope Lin Hao into this during the drive back.
“This... I...”
Lin Hao hesitated, fully aware of the implications. If Fangzhou started infighting, his perfect research conditions would be gone.
“Think about it, you’ll have access to all the virus serums to study openly. Wouldn’t that help you decode the secrets of the virus sooner?”
Ning Yu further analyzed, making him nod in agreement.
Only by maintaining these conditions could he find the source of the virus and avenge his wife.
“But... Zhuang Wugou was always so busy. Can I really do this?”
Lin Hao had no confidence in his abilities, but Ning Yu clapped him on the shoulder, as if bestowing a great responsibility on him.
If not for her appearance as a young girl, Lin Hao might have thought he was being recruited into a mafia gang.
“I believe in you. You can do it.”
“And I’ll support you from the shadows. If anyone is dissatisfied, you can discuss it with me, and I’ll...”
Ning Yu made a gesture indicating she had his back.
“Please, calm down... Let’s handle things civilly, no need for violence...”
Lin Hao knew exactly what Ning Yu meant by “I’ll...” – it certainly wasn’t anything friendly.
After hesitating for a while, he finally nodded and said to Ning Yu:
“Alright, how do you want me to cooperate?”
Ning Yu seemed to have been waiting for this moment and immediately began discussing with him:
“First, we do this... then that...”
The two of them whispered back and forth, while Shen Yiyue found it all too confusing and stopped paying attention.
She grabbed a bag of chips and started munching. She hadn’t eaten much today and was starving.
“So... why are you going through so much trouble?”
Lin Hao suddenly looked at Ning Yu, wondering why she was so concerned about the base’s safety.
He knew what kind of person Ning Yu was and didn’t think she was the type to care about the ordinary people at Fangzhou.
“Me? I just need a stable environment to live in.”
Ning Yu pulled Shen Yiyue, who was licking her fingers after finishing the chips, over to her side.
Suddenly pulled into the conversation, Shen Yiyue looked confused at Ning Yu, unsure why she was involving her.
“I see.”
Lin Hao looked at the two of them and seemed to understand.
“Huh? What? What are you talking about?”
Shen Yiyue looked at Ning Yu, then at Lin Hao, and then at the remaining crumbs in the chip bag.
She was about to pour the crumbs into her mouth; she didn’t want to waste them...
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?

Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
