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

Chapter 201 Trending Topics and Farewell

Jiang Shu opened the trending topics and saw her own sickly beauty's arrogant and bright face in the most prominent position.

[The heir of the FY conglomerate led fighter jets into R country without authorization, bombing five R country medical bases and an island, paralyzing R country's medical system.]

[A drone from Country R clashed head-on with the successor of FY on the Country R border; ten minutes later, the Country R aircraft was completely destroyed.]

[The FY conglomerate was condemned by the R country government and demanded trillions in compensation, which was rejected.]

……

"..." Jiang Shu asked Nie Zheng, "Won't he get arrested by the major international authorities for playing like this?"

Nie Zheng said meaningfully, "This young master who has been domineering for years is not brainless. Just wait and see what happens next."

Jiang Shu was taken aback: "There's more to it?"

“It’s only on our intranet.” Nie Zheng took out his phone and opened a webpage displaying the flags of over a hundred countries. “Ordinary people can’t see it.”

Jiang Shu took the phone; it was still the most popular search term:
At 22:00 China time, the Crown Prince presented compelling evidence proving that inhumane viral experiments were conducted at all five bases he bombed.

[High-resolution image of the list of victims.JPG. Shocking! The victims in this incident from Country R were all international S-level medical criminals, heinous criminals!]

[Breaking News! At 22:05 China time, R country officials demanded a military court ruling on the Crown Prince's fighter jet fleet, alleging it violated international regulations and forcibly entered the country to carry out malicious bombing raids, and are seeking trillions in damages.]

At 22:20 China time, the Global Military Tribunal immediately convened an online meeting and initiated a vote, rejecting R country's ruling and compensation claims with 65% of the votes.

[The Chinese XX Bureau, the F Country RC1 Arms Base and the Extreme Sky Mercenary Group, and the world's top ten financial groups have all expressed their affirmation and unlimited support for the Crown Prince's actions.]

[At 23:22 China time, a military court held R country accountable for its secret creation of the virus.]

……

Jiang Shu paused for a moment: "If I were to do what Ali did..."

“Then there’s only one way out: death.” Nie Zheng poured cold water on the idea. “Apart from the fact that he’s the heir of the FY conglomerate, who dominates the global financial world, even if Yan Yu Ning Yunzhan were to take action, he would likely fail.”

"Where is Li Yubai?" Jiang Shu asked purely out of curiosity.

Nie Zheng paused for a moment, then said solemnly, "I can't see through Li Yubai."

Jiang Shu's mind drifted to Li Yubai's gentle, tolerant, and doting face: "He's so well-behaved, how can you not see through him?"

Nie Zheng choked: "His family background is very strange, and his personal assets are definitely not what they seem on the surface. They may even surpass the FY conglomerate. But he has always preferred to be an outsider. Apart from the financial battle with Feng Li that shocked the world last time, he rarely gets involved himself."

Jiang Shu stopped dwelling on the issue.

She browsed the web for a while longer, confirming that many online reports were favorable to Feng Li, and breathed a sigh of relief. She then asked another question she was concerned about: "What can I do for my mother?"

Nie Zheng's tone tightened slightly, "The professors said that other viruses should be able to be analyzed within a month, and there is hope that targeted drugs can be successfully developed. The only exception is virus No. 9. We have conducted thousands of analysis experiments, but we still have no clue."

"so what?"

“So, I plan to go to Misty Continent myself to see if I can catch any of the connected fugitives who have slipped through the net.” Nie Zheng looked at Jiang Shu, “And you, you are responsible for protecting her here.”

"I'll go." Jiang Shu closed the experimental data, her tone cold. "Rong Jingchen is there too, and we get along quite well."

"Nonsense." Nie Zheng's expression darkened. "If you dare to go, your mother's temper is such that she'll kill herself right now. You want to be a child without a mother, fine, but do you want me to be a widower?"

Jiang Shu: "..."

Thinking of Jiang Liuyun's volatile temper, she silently shut her mouth.

It was already 3 a.m. when I got back to the villa.

Apart from Feng Li and Rong Jingchen, the others were all present. Jiang Shu's steps were heavy, which Li Yubai, Yan Yu, and Ning Yunzhan all noticed.

"My grandfather has contacted several well-known poison masters. I will personally take them to the base first thing tomorrow morning. I hope it will be helpful to the professors at the medical base." Yan Yu thoughtfully handed over a cup of sugar water. "It's getting cold. Sister, don't wear such thin clothes in the mornings and evenings these days."

Jiang Shu looked at the brown sugar water and paused for a moment: "I don't like sugar water."

Yan Yu hummed in agreement: "But my sister has been suffering so much lately, it breaks my heart to see her like this."

Jiang Shu didn't know what to say, so she drank the sugar water in one gulp.

Ning Yunzhan asked her, "You know about what Feng Li caused, right?"

"I know." Jiang Shu confirmed, still a little worried. "Since he's alright, when can he come back?"

"No major issues, but there are a few minor ones." Ning Yunzhan sighed. "After all, such a large-scale operation has to come at a price, and a few days of accountability is inevitable. Moreover, international organizations have specifically drafted many new restrictive treaties targeting his fighter jet fleet, so I guess he won't be able to fly his fighter jet fleet out of the country in the future."

Li Yubai said softly, "He may seem willful and reckless, but he is actually very good at knowing how to handle things. He will definitely be back by next week at the latest."

Jiang Shu nodded: "This matter was caused by me. If anything unexpected happens, I will definitely not stand idly by."

"Don't let him know what you're saying," Li Yubai chuckled. "Otherwise, he might deliberately cause trouble even if there's nothing wrong with him."

A week later, Jiang Shu didn't see Feng Li, but instead met two other people who surprised her.

She glanced at the two rough-looking men at the villa entrance, their faces weathered and their skin several shades darker, and tentatively probed:

"Assistant Yang, Assistant Gao?"

"It's us." Assistant Yang's face beamed with the happiness of finally making contact with the organization, his voice trembling. "We've finally been summoned by the organization!"

Jiang Shu: "???"

She looked at Li Yubai blankly.

Li Yubai cleared his throat: "They've been mining for a few months, which is quite an experience. I'll be going on a business trip for a while, so I'll call them back to work with Assistant Shen and the others at the Li Group to prevent any trouble."

Jiang Shu exclaimed in surprise, "A business trip?"

"M country. We'll bring Feng Li back with us then." Li Yubai smiled. "It should take about three days."

Assistant Yang glanced at Li Yubai: "Jiang, the boss of the Li Group doesn't want to step into this place for even a moment longer. He just wants to stay with you. If it weren't for the fact that Mr. Shen is inexperienced, the boss would have even asked us to poach all of our employees this year."

Jiang Shu: "...You guys have it tough too."

Li Yubai left with his two special assistants.

Jiang Shu stood there, feeling a little sad for some reason.

She asked Ning Yunzhan and Yan Yu, "Rong Jingchen has left, Ali has not returned for a long time, and now even Li Yubai has left. Will there come a day when you all leave me and never come back?"

Before Ning Yunzhan and Yan Yu could speak, Jiang Shu suddenly slapped her forehead:
"I was narrow-minded! In business, the worst thing is to fall in love with your customers. It was really going too far for me to talk to you about money and also about feelings."

"..."

Yan Yu gazed at her silently, as if he had a thousand words to say, but in the end, he only let out a sigh:
"Sister, you're even better at tea than I am."

Ning Yunzhan smiled leisurely: "My patron, you can do what others can't, but you can."

Jiang Shu said "Oh," and then asked, "So, all five?"

Ning Yunzhan and Yan Yu fell silent, each taking a step back in a disheveled manner.
