On the first day of the new year, something big happened in the imperial capital.
The Li family's high-profile announcement to terminate cooperation with the Huang family means that all companies under the Li family's name will no longer have any cooperation with the Huang family.
This move is tantamount to completely relegating the Huang family to the cold palace. The Li family plays an important role in the imperial capital, which is not comparable to that of a small company like the Huang family.
The cancellation of cooperation between the Li family and the Huang family will naturally affect the decisions of many partners of the Li family.
This news is placed in a very eye-catching position, and there is another reason why it is so eye-catching.
Huang Zhengshan's daughter is the person involved in the scandal that caused a lot of controversy in the past two days.
Of course, his affair with Li Li, the eldest daughter of the Li family, was also exposed. The news was all about Huang Ying's frame-up of Li Li.
Wen Li was woken up by the loud ringing of the phone. She opened her eyes in a daze and took the phone from the side.
"Wen Li, where are you?" An Zisu's voice came from over there.
"Is something wrong?"
An Zisu got used to her cold tone and continued, "I have something to ask you for help. Would you like to come to school today?"
Many majors in the school have already gone on winter vacation, and students in several majors still have a few exams.
Most students at the School of Pharmacy will not go back until mid-January, close to the Chinese New Year.
However, An Zisu also thought that Wen Li might not be coming during the final exam, but this matter was very urgent.
So he called and asked.
"What's up?"
An Zisu looked sideways at the person lying on the bed next to him with a solemn expression, "There have been many strange cases in the Imperial Capital recently, and many people have died. The doctors here are helpless. I want you to come and take a look. what's going on."
Wen Li responded and said, "I'll be there at ten o'clock."
"Okay, I'll send you the address later."
Wen Li put down the phone and looked back to see that the man had opened his eyes and was lying on his side staring at her.
"Whose phone number?"
"An Zisu."
Fu Yuxiu's delicate brows furrowed slightly, and his fingertips gently crossed the tip of her nose, "What is he doing with you so early in the morning?"
"Are you jealous?" Wen Li raised his eyebrows with a smile on his eyebrows.
Fu Yuxiu raised his hand and wrapped the man in the quilt. Wen Li lay on top of him, looking down at the smiling man.
"What do you want to eat?" The man's eyes were dark, and he touched her lips with his fingertips.
"Soup dumplings." Wen Li requested.
Fu Yuxiu lifted off the black quilt and stood up with the little girl in his arms.
"After washing your face and brushing your teeth, go down and I'll let them get ready."
Wen Li stepped on his instep and reached out to take the toothbrush he handed over.
He put one arm around Wen Li's waist and they brushed their teeth together. The man in the mirror lowered his head and touched her face from time to time.
The gesture is extremely intimate.
Fei Ran and Lu Min were already waiting in the living room, and the servant put breakfast on the table.
Wen Li has stayed in S state for so many years, and his eating habits have not changed much. He still likes the taste of G country.
Lu Min was sitting on the corridor. The weather was not bad today. Under the sunlight, he could see the reflected light in the distance.
Wen Li and Fu Yuxiu came down from upstairs. The relationship between the two of them has been good recently, and they are jealous of each other.
"Miss Wen Li, just now Xia Chen asked me to give this to you." Fei Ran handed the bright yellow document bag to Wen Li.
Fu Yuxiu was peeling eggs for her with one hand and watched Wen Lila pull open the document.
It is a commission record from fifteen years ago.
The snake organization that was entrusted at the beginning is now under the name of the Ning family, and Xia Chen has been busy with this matter for the past two days.
The name signed at the bottom of the power of attorney was checked by Su Jingjing. Three people with this name in the entire imperial capital have died, and two more have just turned twenty years old.
After such a comparison, this name is naturally fake.
"Still checking on your parents?" Fu Yuxiu handed over the peeled eggs.
Wen Li lowered his head and pondered. If he couldn't find detailed data, he could only find another method.
"Do you need my help?" Fu Yuxiu asked.
Wen Li shook his head and put the document aside.
"Master, the second wife is here." Lu Min came in from the door.
Wen Li saw the woman coming in from the door. She was wearing a pure white coat and a light blue gown underneath.
There was a girl following behind her. She had her head lowered so that her appearance could not be seen. She had long pure black hair and exquisite clothes.
"It just so happens that you haven't had breakfast yet. Here are the pastries I just made. You can try them." Gu Shulan smiled and handed the lunch box to Fei Ran.
The black lacquered wood gilt box opened, and Wen Li saw the exquisite snacks inside.
When Gu Shulan came closer, she smelled the medicinal fragrance on her body, which probably put some lilies in her heart.
"Why does Second Aunt have time to come over?" Fu Yuxiu said and glanced behind her.
Fu Zhiqing raised her head, raised her fair but delicate face slightly, and shouted softly, "Second brother."
Wen Li rarely became curious and glanced at Fu Zhiqing behind Gu Shulan. Her facial features were very delicate and she looked young.
He just seems to be very timid and submissive.
"I happen to be nearby. Yu Heng's engagement party is coming soon. Zhiqing and I came out to take a look at the hotel's layout."
The engagement banquet of Fu Yuheng and Illya was held in an old castle on the edge of the imperial capital. This place was chosen by Illya herself.
"Is this Miss Wen?" Gu Shulan looked at Wen Li.
She couldn't fall asleep last night. She kept thinking about Yan Hua's face over and over again.
This child looks so much like Yan Hua that no one believes her if she is not Yan Hua's daughter.
"Hello." Wen Li greeted politely.
Gu Shulan looked at her blankly, and finally said, "Your father and I are old acquaintances. I met you twice when you were a child."
Such words made Wen Li look at Gu Shulan, her father's friend.
"Your father used to be the most promising pharmacist in the entire imperial capital, and he was quite popular. I come from the Gu family, and my father also appreciated him very much."
These words reminded Wen Li that Li Ruobing studied under the Gu family in the imperial capital, and this Gu family was Gu Shulan's natal family.
When Gu Shulan married Fu Han, it also caused quite a stir. Fu Han Xianyun Yehe's temperament did not fight for power in the Fu family, and Mr. Fu did not make too many regulations for his wife.
Therefore, Gu Shulan back then was called a typical example of someone who flew up a branch and turned into a phoenix.
"You have grown so big. When I saw you last night, for a blink of an eye, I thought I saw your mother." Gu Shulan was filled with emotion.
"Are you familiar with them?"
Gu Shulan nodded, "Your father and I are still brothers and sisters. Although he has never been a disciple or become my Gu family's apprentice, he has worked with me for a while."
Mentioning this, Gu Shulan paused and felt a little regretful, "Without having heard from them for so many years, I thought your parents were living a good life. I only found out after Ruobing and I talked on the phone last night that they are no longer here."
Fei Ran and Lu Min listened quietly to Gu Shulan's words. Gu Shulan was the only person in the entire Fu family who could fall in Fu Yuxiu's eyes.
That is to say, Fu Yuxiu could still talk to her when she was talking, just because she had a close relationship with the late Nan Jinxiu.
After Nan Jinxiu passed away, it was Gu Shulan who took care of Fu Yuxiu for a long time. Usually the second wife looks gentle and generous. She does a lot of things herself and takes care of Fu Han's life in every detail.
Coupled with Fu Han's temperament, this couple is the most unworldly person in the entire Fu family.
Unexpectedly, he could still be related to Wen Li's parents.
"You are good friends with my father, can I ask you a few questions?"
Gu Shulan nodded with a soft smile, "You can just ask, I came here just to see you and talk to you."
"Did my father have any good friends in Imperial City back then?"
Gu Shulan thought for a while, "Your father's friends are all in the research institute, and a large number of them are now pharmacists."
If you want to investigate Wen Xuqian's relationship network, it is the easiest. The people around him are all pharmacy students and later became very outstanding pharmacists.
"What about my mother?"
Gu Shulan shook his head, "I had just married into the Fu family when your parents got married. After that, I cut off contact with the outside world. I only met your mother a few times and I am not familiar with her."
The clue is broken here.
Yan Hua is not from the Imperial Capital. She is a complete outsider in the Imperial Capital and probably doesn't have many friends around her.
When Gu Shulan left with Fu Zhiqing, Wen Li stood in front of the door and thought deeply.
She had always believed that there would be no unreasonable intimacy between people, if Gu Shulan was really so affectionate just because she was Wen Xuqian's daughter.
It would be a little too deliberate to come here specifically.
Gu Shulan took Fu Zhiqing on the way back to Fu's house. She looked down at her watch and saw that it was still early.
It was too early to go out this morning.
"Qing'er, what have you been doing recently? Do you have any idea of going out for a walk during the winter vacation?" Gu Shulan looked at Fu Zhiqing and asked.
The little girl lowered her head and shook her head, "No."
They are both eldest ladies of the Fu family. Fu Zhiqing and Fu Zhining are obviously very different. Their temperaments are too different.
"When your two brothers get married, they will slowly start looking for a husband for you. What kind of husband does Qing'er like?"
Fu Zhiqing shook her head and did not respond.
…
Wen Li was sent to the medicine hall by Fu Yuxiu. The address An Zisu sent was a medicine hall in the center of the imperial capital.
He usually went to work-study studies when he was in class. With the reputation of the An family being so powerful, it was okay for him to go to the medicine hall in the imperial capital and do anything.
This medicine hall is owned by the Gu family. An Zisu has been working here since he was a freshman and is usually responsible for classifying and storing medicinal materials.
When the weather is fine, I will take the medicinal materials out and dry them in the sun. I will skillfully grind the medicinal materials and they will not fall off.
Usually, if the pharmacist in the medicine hall receives a patient who is difficult to treat, he will also ask for his opinion.
For a month, this medicine hall has been receiving strange patients one after another, all with the same symptoms.
They had no way to seek treatment, so he thought about asking Wen Li to come over and see what was going on.
When Wen Li arrived, An Zisu was already waiting at the door.
In the depth of winter, the sky was still cold even if the sun came out. An Zisu was bored and carried the steps under his feet.
Seeing the stopped black sports car, he stood up straight with a smile.
Wen Li was escorted out of the car by Fu Yuxiu and stood quietly in front of the car door listening to the man's instructions.
"I'll come to pick you up tonight, so be good and don't run around."
Wen Li's entire face was covered with a scarf, leaving only a pair of eyes. She pulled down the scarf and said, "I may not stay here for a long time."
The man thought for a moment and changed his words, "Then tell me when it's over and I'll go find you."
There were only a few places she could go to, either the Li family or Su Jingjing's place, but not much.
"Don't get too close to him, I'll get jealous." Fu Yuxiu said, lowering his head and bringing his face closer.
Wen Li leaned over and kissed him on the lips, "Then I'll go over first."
The man let him go with satisfaction.
Fei Ran took a step forward and said, "Master, where are we going now?"
"Go to Fu's house." Fu Yuxiu turned around.
The little thing hadn't finished what he wanted to ask just now. He had to go over and ask.
An Zisu welcomed people into the medicine hall, which was separated by a yard from the outpatient reception in the front to the consultation room in the back.
Before he even got close, he heard the heart-rending screams coming from the people inside.
Wen Li took a closer look and could see the man fastened to the bed through the hollow window.
The doctor who was treating the doctor looked familiar. Wen Li took a step forward, and Li Ruobing turned around with a smile on his face.
"Wen Li, why are you here?"
An Zisu took a step forward and explained, "I brought Wen Li here. I wanted her to help look after the patient."
Li Ruobing stood up and gave up his seat to Wen Li, "I just came here too. His symptoms are very unique. This is the seventh case we have received."
The person on the hospital bed had skin ulcers all over his body, half of his legs were black, his eyes were dark, and he would cough up blood from time to time.
Wen Li took his pulse and observed his pupils and facial features, "This is the seventh one, what about the other six?"
An Zisu sighed heavily, "They are all dead. They died on the night they were brought here."
The cause of death is unknown, as is the disease.
This seventh case was delivered this morning, and he thought that Wen Li might be able to do something about it.
"Have all the blood samples been sent for testing?"
Li Ruobing handed over the report next to him, "This is the report of the first six."
Wen Li lowered his head and saw that the man's exposed skin was covered with traces of pinholes and cuts.
New and old wounds are all over the skin tissue, with scabs and broken flesh.
The blood test report showed that the components in the blood were very complex.
Wen Li lowered his head and stared at the person on the bed.
"This was thrown out after someone did an experiment."
An Zisu and Li Ruobing's eyes widened, "Experiment?"
"Yes, if this is the seventh case, I'm afraid there are other medicine halls that have also received people with such symptoms."
An Zisu and Li Ruobing looked at each other, "What should we do now?"
"Do you want to call the police?"
"Can't call the police!"
A strong male voice interrupted Wen Li's words.
Li Ruobing and An Zisu turned around and spoke very politely.
"Doctor Gu..."
There is only one update today

I spent four hours writing this chapter today. Can you believe it
