Chapter 479: Chapter 480: School Preparation 5
Nianyang felt that before Jiang Shaodong left, the look he gave her and Li Tingyan was as cold as a venomous snake, making her feel inexplicably uneasy.
But she didnât care, after all, heâs just a scoundrel, not worth bothering about.
Nianyang wasnât concerned, and Li Tingyan certainly cared even less, although the people living here were all business tycoons from Pingjing.
But he was a Sea Merchant, and his father was the head of an investment bank. Even the most formidable business people wouldnât dare provoke him; he didnât need to worry about offending anyone.
On the contrary, if Jiang Shaodong wanted to cause trouble, knowing his identity, he wouldnât even dare say a word!
Ruan Weidong, however, was a bit nervous and said, "Nianyang girl, and Tingyan, you better watch out for this Jiang Shaodong, heâs not a good thing!"
"Uncle Ruan, what does he do?" Nianyang asked purely out of curiosity.
Ruan Weidong lowered his voice, "Heâs Jiang Lianjie, the young master of the Jiang Family, ranked third among the three major families in Pingjing. You might not know, although the Jiang Family does transportation business outwardly, their ancestors actually played with Gu things, specializing in researching all kinds of human-controlling Gu, quite eerie indeed."
Playing with Gu.
Nianyang raised her eyebrows but didnât care. Gu Poison sounds scary, but sheâs a doctor, specialized in curing Gu.
Ruan Weidong said gravely, "Nianyang girl, I think that Jiang Lianjie might have remembered you, youâd better avoid coming here in the future. I know youâre skilled in medicine and not afraid of him, but the Jiang Family is really filthy, I donât want any accidents happening to harm you!"
Nianyang frowned, "It sounds like the Jiang Family has quite a story, huh?"
Ruan Weidong said, "Iâll tell you, itâs no harm, Jiang Family people are extremely twisted, they heavily favor boys over girls. The daughters in their family, once born, have to serve them, providing blood and bodies for their Gu experiments, truly wicked!"
Nianyang got goosebumps listening to this. She didnât expect in this innocent age, there would be such dark things, treating people as test subjects for Gu experiments, damn terrifying.
Ruan Weidong continued, "Itâs said that Jiang Lianjie had a sister, who was taken away right after birth about ten years ago, and they still havenât found her. So they canât use a living human as a test subject, which is a blessing in disguise."
Nianyang was unsettled, "Ten years ago, do you know exactly how many years ago?"
Emma, could it really be what sheâs thinking!
"Seems like eighteen years ago." Ruan Weidong pondered, "This thing isnât a secret in the high circles because the daughters of the Jiang Family must serve them lifelong, so after Jiang Lianjieâs mother found out she had given birth to a daughter, she arranged for the daughter to be sent away and then committed suicide herself!"
Eighteen years ago.
Wasnât that when Nianyang was adopted by the Gu Family?
Could Nianyang be that unfortunate daughter of the Jiang Family!
In an instant, both Nianyang and Li Tingyan felt a chill in their hearts. If this was true, they simply couldnât acknowledge this kinship!
Ruan Weidong saw Nianyangâs face wasnât looking good, thinking she was frightened,
"Nianyang girl, donât worry too much, although the Jiang Family is insane, they wonât go too far. Itâs a law-governed society now; they wouldnât randomly kidnap people as test subjects, which is why all these years theyâve been searching for their lost daughter!"
Oh god, itâs precisely because of this that sheâs scared!
Nianyang felt completely out of sorts. If her original self really was the Jiang Familyâs daughter, she might not be able to resist the urge to eradicate her family for justice!
