The doctor’s words kept echoing in her ears.

"Miss Rui Hui, I know it’s cruel to say this, but we have to be responsible to every patient. If the child has defects before birth, we suggest taking action first. You can think it over."

"Rui Hui, watch out!"

Ye Mingmei’s sharp voice rang out from behind. Just as Rui Hui recovered her senses and turned her head, a taxi was coming straight at her.

"Swoosh—"

The car stopped less than a meter away from her.

"I say, are you blind? Crossing the street without watching the lights, if you want to die, don’t drag me into it!" The driver, still shaken, stuck his head out and cursed angrily.

"..."

Rui Hui stared at the driver for a few seconds, moved her body, walked towards him, opened the car door, and got in.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing? I just scolded you a bit. Don’t think you can hold me responsible..."

"To the airport."

"What?" The driver was taken aback.

"I have money, take me to the airport." Rui Hui blinked, took out a few bills from her handbag, handed them to the driver, indicating he could start driving without worry.

"Rui Hui, where are you going?"

By the time Ye Mingmei caught up, Rui Hui’s car had already disappeared from sight.

Breathless, leaning against her waist, she hurriedly took out her phone to call Qin Youxuan.

...

The plane arrived in Texas.

Rui Hui walked out of the airport alone, without hesitation, waved for a taxi, and reported the address of the experimental building.

Paid the fare, got out of the car.

"Miss Rui Hui..."

The guards at the experimental building looked surprised when they saw Rui Hui returning alone, their mouths wide open.

Rui Hui glanced at the familiar surroundings without a word.

She stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for Diwu Zexuan’s private laboratory floor.

That’s Diwu Zexuan’s office area. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Besides Diwu Zexuan and his assistant, no one dared to step in easily.

Upon exiting the elevator, Rui Hui moved quickly, avoiding the surveillance cameras, used her fingerprint to open his laboratory door, and slipped inside.

The spacious room was clean and bright.

The predominantly white laboratory had only essential office equipment and medical instruments.

Like a large workspace, it exuded a cold and mysterious aura.

Rui Hui stepped forward, her gaze scanning his laboratory, finally resting on his desk.

She walked up, sat on his chair.

Her fingers brushed over the medical books and various reports on his desk, then moved on to his bookshelf.

Rui Hui worked quickly, going through all of Diwu Zexuan’s documents in no time.

Nothing, she couldn’t find anything.

The report he had shown her before was gone.

Why?

Was it fake?

Rui Hui’s eyes tightened, she stood up from the chair, ready to leave his office, when her peripheral vision caught sight of the shredder, and she paused.

She turned back, reached down, and picked up the shreds from the shredder.

Pressing her hands together, the document, now cut into strips, revealed nothing about its original content, though a few indistinct characters could be seen.

It was her name.

Diwu Zexuan had shredded her report...

What was on it that made him destroy it so urgently?

His laboratory was inaccessible to others unless one assistant tidied it. These past few days, they had been at the Ye Family, even the assistant had no time, which was why she had this chance to see the shreds. Otherwise, she would have seen nothing at all.
