After five bigwigs in Beijing's elite circle fell into their trap, I fled.

Chapter 165 Testing
Meanwhile, at the Imperial Capital Film Academy's Principal's Office.

The principal fell silent as he looked at the huge donation brought in by the finance department.

The finance department prepared a budget on the spot: "This amount of money can not only build a library that is larger than our current one, but can even fill it with books."

The head of academic affairs nervously rubbed his hands together. "Principal, should we withdraw?"

The principal's gaze fell on the donation signature: "Chairman of Yunduan Group, you don't lack this money, accept it. Once the library is built, name it after Ning Yunzhan."

The head of student affairs thought for a moment and then asked, "So, what should we do with Jiang Shu from now on?"

"No special treatment is needed, but if anything happens, remember to contact Ning Yunzhan immediately, or the phone number of the guy surnamed Feng that I gave you before."

"Ok."

The principal paced back and forth a few times with his hands behind his back: "If possible, keep her at the school from now on."

"...Okay." Staying at school, is that like being the goose that lays the golden eggs right now?
On Friday, Rong Jingchen and Jiang Shu went out together.

In addition to being her boyfriend, he also got the role of a temporary instructor.

During this military training exercise, Jiang Shu challenged the new instructor twelve times without hesitation, thoroughly enjoying herself and feeling a completely different energy and spirit.

Rong Jingchen's expression was gentle, and he couldn't help but speak during the break: "You really are a born warrior..."

"God of War." Jiang Shu raised an eyebrow. "If I could, I would become the God of War, above... the Extreme Sky Mercenary Base."

Rong Jingchen rubbed his sore arms, a smile in his eyes: "We'll see."

The two chatted as if no one else was around, but the entire base was in a daze, and rumors were flying everywhere!
Xu Yan had seen Rong Jingchen at Jiang Shu's college entrance banquet. Although she didn't know his exact identity, his chilling aura made it easy to guess that he held a high position.

She thoughtfully handed Jiang Shu water, and didn't forget to chat about a few gossips:
"It's all over the base, saying that a female demon has come to our directing department. She beat up an instructor yesterday, and today she beat up another temporary instructor more than ten times..."

"You said your methods were ruthless, but you don't care at all about that handsome and cool face of yours."

"By the way, someone secretly said that the boyfriend you saw yesterday was Ning Yunzhan, but nobody believes it."

"In short, after military training, Jiang Shu, you don't need to worry about anyone provoking you anymore..."

Jiang Shu was very satisfied: "It's great."

At night, Jiang Shu and Rong Jingchen returned home, where Li Yubai had already brewed a pot of tea.

"Hey, you're back?"

Jiang Shu was somewhat surprised, "Wasn't it supposed to be a three-day business trip?"

“Something came up.” Li Yubai took out six cups. “Go wash up first, then we can chat over tea.”

When Jiang Shu finished washing up and changed out of her dirty military training uniform, the other five men were already enjoying their third drink.

Jiang Shu sat down in the empty seat next to Li Yubai: "Tell me, what happened?"

Li Yubai silently poured her some tea: "I have news about the person with the X-shaped scar that you've been looking for."

Jiang Shu immediately sat up straight, her expression becoming more serious: "Who is it?"

"We don't know yet. The person who leaked the information isn't quite right in the head. I've arranged for the world's top medical team, and he should wake up within a week at the latest. We might find out his identity then."

After Li Yubai finished speaking, he looked at the men around him who were listening attentively, and added, "However, I also found out some information that might be useful."

Jiang Shu slammed her hand on the table: "Speak."

Li Yubai chuckled: "Don't be in such a hurry, have some tea first."

"I'm in a real hurry, so very anxious." Jiang Shu pointed to her chest. "I've been searching for this for so many years."

Rong Jingchen pondered, "Our patron has always been magnanimous. What grudge could you possibly have against your arch-enemy that you've held onto it for so many years?" "...We'll talk about that later." Jiang Shu tugged at Li Yubai's sleeve. "Just tell me!"

Li Yubai tapped his fingers lightly: "That person appeared in H country eight years ago and had a layer of skin implanted by the most famous plastic surgeon there, so realistic it was hard to tell the difference between real and fake, to completely cover up the scars on his back..."

Jiang Shu slammed her teacup down: "No wonder I haven't had any leads for so many years, and even with all your connections, you still can't find anything!"

The men all coughed softly.

Ning Yunzhan lowered his eyes, somewhat helplessly: "My patron, why are you starting to use such vulgar language like Feng Li?"

Feng Li glanced at him coldly: "Didn't we spoil them?"

Seeing that the conversation was about to go off-topic again, Jiang Shu coughed lightly: "This patron has had no leads for many years. Now that we've finally found a trace of that person, Li Yubai, please tell us as much as you can."

“I didn’t know much before the person who leaked the information woke up.” Li Yubai looked at everyone and slowly poured tea for each of them. “I only knew that the person was a handsome Eastern man with a blue knife on his body—his servant called him…the new master.”

After speaking, Li Yubai quietly looked at everyone.

"New master?" Yan Yu looked innocent. "I thought such strange titles only appeared in TV dramas these days."

Feng Li slowly toyed with his teacup: "Don't you know that Rong Jingchen's subordinates all call him 'Master'? Isn't that more prestigious than any new master?"

Rong Jingchen glanced at Feng Li indifferently: "At least it's more impressive than being called a short-lived ghost, a big scourge, or a spoiled brat."

Ning Yunzhan smiled slightly: "Since there's a new master, are there still old masters?"

Li Yubai smiled noncommittally: "I don't know if he has a former master, but the person who leaked the information said he remembers what the person looks like. When he wakes up, we can have him draw a picture, and then we can naturally find him in the crowd..."

Jiang Shu nodded: "Keep an eye on the hospital in H country. It would be best if we could find out what he looks like by the end of military training!"

Li Yubai paused for a moment: "He has eighteen X-shaped scars on his back."

Jiang Shu: "..."

She tried hard to recall:
"I don't remember exactly how many I slept with him back then. But a vague image suddenly flashed through my mind: my nemesis had one on his back..."

Li Yubai asked softly, "Could it be that you've misremembered?"

"It can't be that serious, can it? Let's find the person first." Jiang Shu reminded, "H Country Hospital should send more people. On TV, these kinds of things are always about murder to cover up the crime."

Li Yubai: "...Hmm."

He suddenly spoke up: "My lord, he deliberately concealed his wounds. Do you think it's possible that... he has already changed his identity and arrived by your side a long time ago, waiting for his chance?"

Feng Li spilled a cup of tea: "You dog of a man, don't scare me!"

Rong Jingchen remained calm: "My lord, if that new master really appears, even if I have to die, I will die before you."

Yan Yu took out his phone: "I've asked the Yanxing Group's technology department and the hacker alliance to investigate overnight."

Ning Yunzhan gave a soft "hmm": "It is worth investigating. Since they have been spying on us in secret, they must have collected information about the patron and those around her online many times."

Li Yubai sighed softly, "I was just guessing, there's no need to suddenly get so nervous. Come on, let's continue drinking tea?"

They drank tea until 1 a.m., then everyone dispersed and went back to their rooms.

Just as everyone was about to reach the corner of the stairs, Li Yubai answered a phone call: "What? The person is already awake?"

His gaze lingered on the group of people who had stopped in their tracks:

"I'm setting off now, taking the portrait artist and the sugar daddy with me. Wait for my news, okay?"
