Chi Zhenfa was taken aback, looking at the face in front of him that, even dressed in men's clothes, couldn't hide its beauty and charm. A girl who should be only 20 years old, at an age where she would either be spirited at university or playfully nestled in her parents' arms, had instead suffered an overnight tragedy. From then on, her face never showed the slightest hint of happiness, anger, sorrow, or joy.
As an elder of the Mu Family who had watched her grow up, his heart ached deeply!
Yes, how could she live well with her family's deep blood feud unavenged?
"Uncle Chi..." Mu Yin knew he was softening and wanted to add fuel to the fire.
However, Chi Zhenfa, gritting his teeth, made his decision and, pulling Chi Ying in front of her, sighed, "Well, I won't try to persuade you anymore. Young master, I owe the Chairman a life debt I can never repay in this life. From now on, I am at your disposal, ready to do whatever you ask, as long as it serves to avenge the Chairman."
Mu Yin stiffened and hurriedly helped him up, "Please don't talk like that, Uncle Chi. You already repaid your debt two years ago when you saved me. You are now my elder and my family. But there are some things I can't handle personally and still need your help with."
"Alright." Chi Zhenfa allowed her to help him to the sofa and took out a list of information he had secretly collected recently, laying it all out, "This is a list of Yunmu Medical Group's core old employees, most of whom were loyal to the Chairman back then. Even though they've been suppressed these past two years, they haven't left, probably waiting for you to return."
"Really?" Mu Yin was overjoyed and quickly took the list, skimming through it – the majority were familiar names.
So they were all still there, that was great.
"First, try contacting them, see if you can find any clues, especially the R&D team that participated in the 315 research project back then. They must know something," Mu Yin said, holding the necklace pendant over her clothes as a cold light flashed in her eyes.
It was a miniature rose gold Pandora's Box, containing a very small glass vial with a blue liquid inside that looked like a flowing ocean.
She had studied it countless times over the past two years.
She could almost confirm that this was a new drug her father had secretly developed. As for its effects, she wasn't quite sure yet.
But it was the key to the catastrophe that had befallen their family.
"Give it to Bo... Bo..." The scene before her father's death appeared countless times, branded deep in her mind like a mark.
The Bo Family, huh?
Unfortunately, despite two years of investigation by Uncle Chi, there was no Bo family in Yangcheng!
She even began to doubt whether she had heard wrong in her panic...
Otherwise, this "Bo" surname could be the key to the clues.
"Alright, I'll go handle it right away," said Uncle Chi, nodding. As he stood up, he still looked worried, "But the Chu Family took away the archives. What do you plan to do, young master?"
"I think the Chu Family is likely tied to this, and I plan to go undercover to see for myself," Mu Yin said with a furrowed brow as she turned to Chi Ying, who had been busy at the computer without her noticing, "Yingying, any news?"
"Young master, this..." Chi Zhenfa hesitated, but ultimately did not object any further.
Chi Ying immediately responded, "Ah, young master, the bodyguards and servants of the Chu Family have been in place for many years, and it's very difficult for an outsider to get in, but..."
She paused and added, "I found out about Tang Qingyue, the illegitimate son Chu Junyan's fiancée whom the Chu Family acknowledged two years ago. She was sent to the countryside to be raised and is coming back in a few days. It seems she's got into Yangcheng University, and at the same time, the old master Chu seems to be keen on moving forward with the wedding."
"You want me to impersonate Chu Junyan's fiancée?" Mu Yin was stunned.
