After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 171 Honesty of the Past, the Long-Awaited Recovery Speed
When Lin Shuangshuang saw the message from Jiang Hanying again, she felt a warmth in her heart, but a bitter smile appeared on her face.

It seems that she's been dragging her feet on meeting, and this girl has probably realized her predicament and is now testing her.

But what else could she say?
Uncle Ge Dahai gave her two choices. One was a sister who, although not related by blood, had treated her like a younger sister since childhood, helping her out of her predicament. She was more like a sister than a biological sister. The other was the only girl she had met in her years of walking on thin ice who was kind to her, cared for her, and shared the same goal as her.

Choosing the former would haunt her conscience for the rest of her life.

If the latter is chosen, what will happen to the older sister?
She had indeed thought humbly that even if the sisters could never be together again in this lifetime, as long as she knew that her older sister was still alive and well, that would be enough.

But from the video she just saw, she had a gut feeling that her sister wasn't doing well.

Putting aside the environment in the video—dark, damp, and gloomy—and the dance the sister is performing in the video, what kind of situation must she be in to dance such a dance of despair!
After sending the message, Jiang Hanying waited patiently for a while. When almost ten minutes had passed and there was still no reply, she simply made a video call.

Li Jingmo stared wide-eyed from the side, then turned to glare at her younger brother.

Aren't you going to stop them?
Li Chengxiao gave him a look, but only if he could stop him!

He had never seen this girl fail to accomplish anything she set her mind to.

The sudden ringing of her cell phone in the room startled Lin Shuangshuang, who was caught in a dilemma. When she saw the three words 'Jiang Hanying' displayed on the screen, she was completely unprepared and instinctively wanted to hang up. However, in her panic, she accidentally touched the green circle next to her.

The call connected in the next second!

The two of them could see each other instantly through their phone screens.

Jiang Hanying was taken aback at first, then exclaimed, "Sister Shuangshuang!"

"Snapped!"

The screen went dark, and the call ended.

Li Jingmo had just peeked over the screen, and before she could even get a good look at the person on it, she exclaimed, "Why did they hang up again?"

Jiang Hanying stared at the now-darkened phone screen, as if the fleeting glimpse of Lin Shuangshuang's almost unreal beauty still lingered in her mind.

"Shuangshuang has become more beautiful."

Li Jingmo: "...That's all you're paying attention to?"

"Otherwise, I had barely seen her face and hadn't even had a chance to say a word when she hung up on me."

"That's true. But since Miss Lin can still communicate with you, she should still be safe, just without her freedom."

Jiang Hanying shook her head: "Something's not right."

"What's wrong?"

"As I just said, Shuangshuang has become more beautiful. When I first saw her, she was pretty, but not as pretty as I just saw. She looked almost unreal."

"Let me remind you, there's a feature on your phone called 'beauty filter'."

"I know, but even beauty filters can't achieve that level. Anyway, I still feel like something's not right."

Li Jingmo was now genuinely curious. Just how beautiful must it be?

"I'll try calling again," Jiang Hanying said, dialing Lin Shuangshuang's video call again.

This time, the call was only answered when it was almost disconnected automatically. As soon as it connected, Jiang Hanying said quickly before the other end could speak, "Sister Shuangshuang, if you don't answer, I'll come find you right now. Anyway, I know where you live."

Lin Shuangshuang: "..." That's exactly what she was worried about!

They also knew that with Jiang Hanying's personality, she was truly capable of doing such a thing.

At least for now, she doesn't want to betray Jiang Hanying from the bottom of her heart.

"Don't come!"

"Then tell me, what exactly happened on your end?"

While the two were video chatting, Li Jingmo secretly glanced at Jiang Hanying's phone screen.

When he saw Lin Shuangshuang's appearance on the screen, he couldn't help but hiss softly.

He had just thought that Jiang Hanying's comment, "So beautiful it's almost unreal," was a bit of an exaggeration.

Now, it's not an exaggeration, not an exaggeration at all!
How could someone become so beautiful in such a short time? Don't talk about plastic surgery. He is a doctor himself. Even if his expertise is not related to plastic surgery, he knows that a person can never become this beautiful through plastic surgery.

Thinking about it that way, something does seem a bit off.

"I……"

“If you won’t tell me, then I’ll come find you right now. And,” Jiang Hanying said, looking up at her cheap master sitting quietly opposite her, “can you tell me?”

Li Chengxiao understood immediately and nodded slightly.

"Was your previous infiltration of Ge Dahai's side due to Lin Yuanyin?"

Lin Shuangshuang was quite surprised and couldn't control her expression at all. "How did you know?"

“Ge Dahai is hiring someone to kill me and exposing my dirty secrets. He’s clearly planning to fight me to the death. I can’t keep being on the defensive, so I asked someone to help me investigate him. This investigation led to the case of Lin Yuanyin’s disappearance, which is related to him, as well as the sanatorium where Lin Yuanyin’s partner, Liao Dongyan, is located. Shuangshuang, you haven’t visited him for more than half a month, have you?”

As Jiang Hanying recounted the results of her investigation, Lin Shuangshuang's surprise gradually subsided. "The person you hired is truly remarkable. Lin Yuanyin is my sister."

Upon hearing this, Li Jingmo gave his younger brother a thumbs up.

Wow, you were right!

Jiang Hanying bluntly revealed part of the inside story, making the rest of the story much smoother. "I was the little burden she picked up. At that time, my sister was already quite famous in the dance world. She used her earnings to support my schooling. But twelve years ago, when I was still studying at a boarding junior high school, I suddenly received news that my sister had disappeared. I knelt on the ground and begged the police handling the case to find my sister, but in the end, we found nothing, and everyone gave up."

“But I didn’t want to give up. I chose to suspend my studies and started collecting all the information related to my sister’s disappearance. I was determined to keep investigating until the truth came out, or until I could no longer investigate. Over the years, I’ve contacted almost everyone who might be connected to my sister’s disappearance, trying every possible way to get close to them. Until one day, while I was with Ge Dahai, I accidentally discovered a string of cinnabar beads in his collection room. I recognized it immediately as my sister’s. I had saved up money to buy it and strung it myself, figuring out the knots myself. At that time, I guessed that my sister’s disappearance was definitely related to him. Now, now…”

Seeing the video of her dancing already confirmed it!
Ge Dahai was responsible for kidnapping his sister and then handing her over to his uncle back in his hometown!
That's how that video came about!

Jiang Hanying listened quietly as she finished speaking, "So how is it now? And your face..."

Lin Shuangshuang subconsciously touched her face. "I don't know. Just a few days ago, I looked in the mirror and suddenly realized I'd become like this. And my body," she said, propping her phone up to the side, picking up a clean fruit knife from the table, and slashing it across her arm without hesitation. "Look."

Jiang Hanying was almost startled by her, but soon she saw that the cut on Lin Shuangshuang's arm had healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Apart from a few drops of blood when the wound was first cut, there was no trace of the wound.

Before Jiang Hanying could even speak, Li Jingmo eagerly leaned in, exclaiming, "Wow, that recovery speed..."

This is exactly the effect he has been dreaming of!

At that moment, he seemed to see the light of success in his research!
