Chen Xuyao did not know the Zhang family well, however, judging by the three children of the Zhang family, he did not have to guess the Zhang family's background. Since they were able to cultivate children like them, they were certainly not good eggs. Therefore, families like the Zhangs could not bear being dug out on.

Director Ye only had to reveal a lead-in and there would be a lot of people handling the rest of the matter.

"The Huang family of Hairun Group was the first to strike." Lu Xingzhi glanced at Jiang Yao. "I think they started their strike when we met."

"Ah?" Jiang Yao was surprised at the fact that the Huangs had something to do with the Zhangs.

Lu Xingzhi refilled Jiang Yao's bowl. "I'll send you back to the hotel after we finish eating and then go to the police station with Xuyao."

Director Ye had tested him on whether he knew the Huang family of Hairun Group on the phone just now. Director Ye said that the Huang family had already ended all business collaborations with the Zhang family long ago. Even the purchasing department had stopped all the little purchases from the Zhangs and the bank was instructed by the Huang family to stop the fundings for the Zhang family.

The Huang family had done this before Director Ye had spread the rumors, so it was less likely for the Huang family to know this beforehand when they had carried out their plans. That was why the things that happened today seemed to be a coincidence.

Furthermore, after Director Ye had spread the rumors, the Huang family then forbade all the lawyers in Nanjiang City to assist the Zhang family.

Lu Xingzhi remembered that Jiang Yao had visited Chairman Huang of Hairun Group at the hospital this morning, so he guessed that the reason why the Huang family struck at the Zhang family was because of Jiang Yao. Coincidently, their strike happened at the same time when Director Ye had given up on the Zhang family.

"With that said, the whole Zhang family should be behind bars except for Zhang Xiqing." Jiang Yao was quite speechless. The downfall of the Zhang family was a quick one.

Yesterday, they were still able to throw money in millions, yet today, they were penniless.

"It's normal." Lu Xingzhi explained. "To begin with, the Zhang family almost had no foundation at all. The property they have today are the results of the three brothers of the Zhang family starting from scratch. The Zhangs are wealthy, but they do not have any power. Previously, they were using money to buy power. When families like them caused trouble, their downfall will be quicker than anyone else."

"From rags to riches, their ego grew. They don't know how to be humble and they always flaunt their prosperity. They also have three insensible children, so their downfall was expected." Chen Xuyao then asked Lu Xingzhi, "Xingzhi, how are you going to handle the Qis?"

"Let's eat first." Lu Xingzhi still refused to answer his question.

Since he did not say anything, Chen Xuyao did not know what he was planning to do either. However, he still told Lu Xingzhi, "The Qis are not like the Zhangs. Handling the Qis will be trickier than the Zhangs,"

Chen Xuyao did not have a grasp of the Zhang family but he roughly knew about the Qi family.

The Qi family had a strong foundation and quite a few connections in Jindo City. Thus, it would definitely require more than half a day to defeat the Qi family.

It was like the butterfly effect. It was not very easy to defeat the Qi family.

The point was, the Qis were not as dumb as the Zhangs. There was solid evidence to defeat the Zhang family, but it was not easy to find evidence to handle the Qi family.

"I know what I'm doing," Lu Xingzhi answered coldly. There seemed to be a tinge of impatience in his tone.

Judging the situation, Chen Xuyao did not dare to continue as he was afraid that his nagging might cause Lu Xingzhi to throw him out of the restaurant.

Based on Lu Xingzhi's temper, he would undoubtedly do something such as kicking his brothers out of the door without a second thought!

However, since Lu Xingzhi refused to say anything, Chen Xuyao really could not read Lu Xingzhi's mind. He had no idea what Lu Xingzhi was going to do, and he was slightly worried that his brother would lose his senses because of Jiang Yao.

After they came out from the restaurant, Lu Xingzhi initially wanted to send Jiang Yao back to the hotel, but when he thought of the Qis that were still there, he was afraid that Jiang Yao would be pestered by the Qis if he left her alone at the hotel.

"Is it okay if I send you to the hospital and you stay there with Chen Zhibin?" After Lu Xingzhi did some thinking, he said, "Xuyao and I will return to the hospital after around half an hour."

Jiang Yao nodded. She knew that Lu Xingzhi still had something to say to Chen Zhibin after he returned from the police station, so he still had to stop at the hospital. Therefore, Jiang Yao did not refuse to wait at the hospital.

When Chen Xuyao was at Jindo City, he often visited Lu Xingzhi's platoon, so when Chen Zhibin saw Chen Xuyao, he recognized him by just a glance and greeted Lu Xingzhi as Sergeant, Jiang Yao, and Chen Xuyao as Young Master Yao.

Lu Xingzhi briefly told Chen Zhibin about his mother's case before leaving Jiang Yao at the hospital and hurried to the police station with Chen Xuyao.

"Jiang Yao, please sit. Would you like to have some fruit?" Chen Zhibin was older than Jiang Yao by less than two years. He probably did not know how to approach girls, so he did not know what to say to Jiang Yao. He could only take a chair for her to sit in and took out some fruits.

Within an afternoon, Mrs. Chen's ward had been changed into a single room on the sixth floor like Chairman Huang.

The surroundings of the ward was way better than the one on the third floor. It was spacious and bright, however, Mrs. Chen, who was lying on the sickbed, was still unconscious.

"Thank you." Jiang Yao sat on the chair and thanked him but she did not take the apple.

Lu Xingzhi had visited them in a hurry this morning so he had not brought any fruits here. The Chen family did not have any relatives in Nanjiang City, so there shouldn't be anyone visiting Mrs. Chen with fruits. These fruits would have been bought by Chen Zhibin himself, he had probably bought them to be eaten by Mrs. Chen when she awoke.

Jiang Yao sat at the end of the bed. A small notebook was hung on the end of the bed, it seemed to be the medical records by the doctor while doing rounds.

Jiang Yao glanced at the unconscious Mrs. Chen and flipped through her medical records.

Perhaps normal people could not understand the doctor's handwriting, but Jiang Yao understood all of it at a glance. Mrs. Chen's condition was clearly stated in the notebook. As a doctor, Jiang Yao could see that Mrs. Chen's condition was far from optimistic.

Mrs. Chen's bones which were above her knees by an inch were fractured. Although she had undergone surgery, due to her serious condition and old age, she was less likely to recover fully.

Besides, Mrs. Chen had fractured her skull and was suffering from intracerebral hemorrhage and spleen damage. It would take a long time for her to recover.

Jiang Yao placed the medical records back to its place and called for the admin of her medical system in her subconscious mind.

"I saw a Chinese medicine prescription in the Complete Herbology Collection that aids in the recovery of internal organs. However, there are two herbs that I think I have never seen before." Jiang Yao asked, "Where can I get those?"

"You can find them in our lab." Due to Jiang Yao's urging, the System Admin had finally changed into normal clothes when it came out. However, the so-called 'normal' was just slightly more normal as compared to its other clothes.

Perhaps it was rare for Jiang Yao to call it out, which was why the System Admin was quite a talkaholic at that moment. "All the herbs in the Complete Herbology Collection and the Pharmaceutical Collection can be found in the lab. Besides, they are inexhaustible. The medicine that is mixed by Mistress can be used in real life. The more you make, the more you can use."
