Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.

Chapter 309 Let's give them a good beating first!
Xu Ronghai was slightly taken aback, but quickly realized what Du Anrao had just said and was amused as well.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's a shame that at my age, I'm not as insightful as a child. I've lived in vain."

"No, no, no, please don't say that. It's called 'the one involved is confused, while the bystander sees clearly.'"

“An’an is right. Nothing has even happened yet, and you’re already boosting others’ morale while diminishing your own. Is that how I used to teach you?”

“Old Du is right.” Xu Ronghai agreed in a good-natured manner, then turned to Du Anrao and said, “An’an, since you call me Uncle, I’ll take the liberty of asking you for a favor.”

"Uncle Xu, you're too kind. Just tell me what's on your mind."

"This matter is of great importance and must definitely be reported to higher authorities."

"I know, I was prepared for this, you can rest assured."

"Besides that, I also wanted to understand what might happen next so that I could better deal with it."

This was precisely Du Anrao's original intention, so she briefly explained to Xu Ronghai what she knew about what was about to happen in the future, and of course, she didn't forget to remind him.

"Because of your interference, some people who might have been pulled into that world have escaped, which may cause things to go astray in the future. But we will deal with whatever comes our way. I will continue to pay close attention to this matter and will contact you immediately if there are any other issues that require our attention."

Despite his anxiety, Xu Ronghai remained relatively calm: "Okay, thank you for your hard work. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Now that we know about this, we won't just sit idly by."

“Your Uncle Xu is right. We old folks are still here, there’s no reason for a young person like you to shoulder this responsibility. Don’t be afraid, your great-grandfather is here.”

"I feel much more at ease knowing you say that." Du Anrao let out a long sigh of relief and pulled out the information on several main characters he had noticed earlier. "These people need to be kept in close attention, especially this one..."

Du Anrao glanced at the female reporter's file: "Her abilities are somewhat special. If necessary, we can send someone to test her."

Xu Ronghai and the others immediately gathered around, picking up the documents that Du Anrao had picked out and discussing them animatedly.

"There's another person who wasn't in the information I gave you, but... because of my involvement, I'm not sure if he'll be dragged into this later. But just in case, I hope you'll keep an eye on him."

"who is it?"

"His name is Liu Tianyuan," Du Anrao briefly explained Liu Tianyuan's situation.

As for her entanglement with him, she didn't need to go into details. She believed that if the people in front of her were willing to know, they could find out everything in less than an hour.

The effort has been put in; now it's time to reap the rewards.

"Uncle Xu, may I make a request?"

"You said."

“I hope you can arrange for some people to protect my parents and my older siblings. You all saw what happened today. My family may be having a bad year and has been in bad luck since last year. We've been inexplicably attracting all sorts of weirdos.”

Du Anrao lowered her eyes slightly, a hint of lingering fear in her eyes: "I can't be sure if an accident like today will happen again, or if it will happen to my family." Xu Ronghai and the others thought that they should indeed send more people to protect Du Anrao's family. After all, Du Anrao is now one of their key protection targets. It's hard to guarantee that the truth won't be hidden forever, and that some people with ulterior motives won't accidentally learn about her extraordinary abilities.

If her own path becomes blocked, these people might turn their attention to her family. It would be reasonable for them to send people to protect her family's safety.

"It's a small matter; I'll arrange it when I get back."

"Then thank you very much, Uncle Xu. Especially my third brother. He is a member of the B University Research Institute and has a rather important research project on hand. I have a feeling that his project should be successful and will have a great impact on the whole society afterward."

"Oh? Is that so?" Xu Ronghai's curiosity was successfully piqued by Du Anrao's words.

Du Anrao, however, knew when to stop and did not continue to boast about her third brother and his research projects.

[It's truly a case of searching high and low without finding it, only to have it fall into my lap effortlessly. I was just worrying about how to subtly get the higher-ups to notice Third Brother and assign him more protection, when this car accident happened today, conveniently delivering the opportunity to negotiate to my doorstep. If I don't seize this chance, wouldn't I be wasting a golden opportunity?]

Du Desheng's eyes narrowed slightly. The third son of the Du family? What has happened this time that I don't know about?

[Once these people find out that Third Brother's research is on a highly effective anti-cancer drug, won't they treat him like royalty? That's an age-old problem that has plagued countless geniuses, and the amazing thing is, Third Brother actually solved it!]

Du Desheng: "?!?!" What the heck?!
Unaware of Du Anrao's ulterior motives, and considering that Du Anrao had been greatly frightened that day, Xu Ronghai and the others did not keep her for long and personally escorted her out of the room.

The Du family members, along with Xi Jingyue, were waiting outside. Upon seeing Du Anrao, they immediately stood up and went over to him.

"An'an, are you alright?"

"It's alright." Du Anrao patted his mother's hand reassuringly, but his gaze unconsciously drifted around.

In the original story, the third brother was falsely accused of plagiarism by Xiao Jinhang, and all his research results were stolen by the female lead. As a result, Xiao Jinhang was able to reach the pinnacle of life by consuming his blood and bones, gaining both fame and fortune, and becoming a "great philanthropist" and a great hero admired by thousands.

He, the true savior who developed the anti-cancer drug, was forced to bear the infamy, forever vilified, becoming an insignificant stepping stone for others to climb higher. Had he not already died in that explosion, he would likely have faced a terrible prison sentence, enduring unimaginable humiliation.

What?! The Du family members all changed their expressions at the same time, and Du's mother even swayed and almost fell.

Du Anrao was startled when he saw this, and he and his father quickly helped her up.

"Mom, are you okay?"

As if waking from a dream, Du's mother forced a smile and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing. I just felt a little dizzy when I stood up suddenly. I'll be fine after a while."

"Mom, please sit down for a while. Could you please get me a glass of water?"

As soon as Du Anrao finished speaking, several people nearby immediately went to help pour water for him.

Everyone's attention was drawn to Du's mother, and no one noticed that Du Desheng on the other side had unconsciously clenched his cane, the veins on the back of his hand bulging, as if he might strike someone at any moment.

No one knew better than him how important the anti-cancer drugs Du Anrao mentioned were to those patients and even the country. What a huge loss it was for the country that such a high-level talent would suddenly pass away because of such a beastly scoundrel.
Xiao Jinhang, right? Go back and have someone investigate him thoroughly. Regardless of whether he has already started doing bad things, have someone beat him up first!
