Chapter 673: Outbreak of Skin Disease

Sponsored

"Lin Wen has good taste, Xiaoni clearly is an exceptional person."

Elder Kong has a very easy-going personality, and as soon as he spoke, the atmosphere became warm and lively.

The group was sitting together chatting, completely ignoring Kong Lingchuan who was seated by the side like an outsider, unable to join the conversation, his face growing increasingly sullen.

Evidently, the uncle had already sent someone to assassinate Kong Lingwen, but she not only returned, she was also completely unharmed.

He had no appetite for food, and after sitting for a while, he said, "Dad, my stomach hurts a bit, I’ll head back to my room first."

Kong Jingshan was busy talking to his daughter and simply waved at Kong Lingchuan before continuing to inquire, "Lin Wen, tell me and your grandfather about what happened outside this time."

"Once you take charge of the company, I’ll take your grandfather to travel and enjoy ourselves for a change."

Kong Lingwen hesitated to speak about everything that happened in Hidden Cloud Village, so she described the scenery along the way and Luochuan’s local customs instead.

Meanwhile, Kong Lingchuan returned to his room, impatiently took out his phone, and called Cao Ruibin.

"Uncle, Kong Lingwen has returned, what happened to the people you sent?"

"I can’t reach those hitmen anymore; I suspect they took my money and ran off."

Cao Ruibin grit his teeth, he had prepaid two million, and these bastards dared to break their promise.

"How is that possible! Do you think those people might have been dealt with?"

Hearing this, Kong Lingchuan felt a chill down his spine and shivered.

Cao Ruibin immediately retorted, "That’s impossible, does that kid have such skills? Even if he could kill one, he wouldn’t be able to handle all ten of them."

"Forget it, let’s just say it’s my bad luck this time, since they’re back in Zhonghai, under my nose, I can deal with them slowly."

"Xiaochuan, don’t forget what I’ve instructed you to do."

"I understand, Uncle."

After hanging up the phone, Kong Lingchuan felt a little more relieved.

"Dad, don’t blame me for being ruthless; blame yourself. If you hadn’t pushed me, I wouldn’t be doing this."

At this moment, inside the dining room.

After everyone had their fill, Yang Cheng asked, "Uncle Kong, I promised you I’d help with the company’s issues once I returned. What’s been happening recently?"

The mention of this made Kong Jingshan’s smile fade gradually, and he sighed, "Cao Ruibin and Gao Liang have been acting like mad dogs, causing trouble in various companies under the Kong Family."

"At first, it was just minor issues, which I resolved, but just yesterday, after guests checked into the hotel, they all contracted a skin disease, and there’s been no improvement even after sending them to the hospital."

"Now the hotel is closed down, and those guests who checked in were all elite professionals attending meetings in Zhonghai. If the skin disease isn’t cured, offending these people will surely lead to the hotel’s closure."

After speaking, Kong Lingwen’s face changed instantly, and she anxiously said, "Dad, why didn’t you tell me about such a big problem sooner?"

"I wanted you to come back and have a good meal first; now that we’ve finished eating, let’s think about solutions."

Kong Jingshan said with a smile, although upon closer inspection, he looked much more worn out.

"That bastard Cao Ruibin, I won’t let him get away with this!"

Kong Lingwen said through gritted teeth.

Those elite individuals are either executives of some company or some influential second-generation figures; skin diseases can be serious or trivial, and lest the worst happens, it could lead to casualties, the blame will fall squarely on the Kong Family.

"Uncle Kong, what are the symptoms of the skin disease?"

Yang Cheng asked.

"Initially, the patients feel extremely itchy, so much so that they can’t wear clothes, then blisters appear, and after bursting, they start to fester. I visited those guests today, and although the doctors applied medication, the effects aren’t significant."

Kong Jingshan waved his hand, and Wen Xu handed over a piece of information to Yang Cheng.

Inside were the details of the guests who contracted the skin disease, along with several photos of the skin infection.

The photos showed coin-sized blisters on people’s skin, with some areas oozing yellow-green pus, looking extremely nasty.

Yang Cheng frowned slightly and asked, "Have the bed linens the guests used been checked? Was nothing found?"

"After the incident, I assigned someone to perform a detailed inspection in the rooms, and tested the samples, yet found nothing; so now I can’t account for it to the victims."

Kong Jingshan found this peculiar too, he was sure the hotel rooms themselves had no issues, someone must have tampered within the rooms, yet couldn’t pinpoint any cause.

"I will visit the hotel later to determine the toxin, and only then can we start treating the patients tomorrow."

There are countless types of skin diseases with diverse treatment methods.

This treatment can only succeed, there’s no room for failure, so he must ensure foolproof accuracy.

"You aren’t sure what toxin it is, yet you’re certain you can treat it?"

Kong Jingshan was somewhat surprised, it’s good for the young man to be confident but now isn’t the time for showing off.

"Certainly, even if I can’t fully cure everyone, I can ensure a relief of their symptoms."

After Yang Cheng finished speaking, he stood up.

Kong Lingwen grabbed his arm and softly said, "You drove all day and didn’t rest well last night, perhaps you should go tomorrow."

"I’m fine, I don’t feel tired, if I don’t investigate quickly, I’m worried someone might dispose of evidence."

Yang Cheng smiled slightly and gently touched her cheek, immediately making her blush crimson.

During this time, the duo frequently engaged in such intimate gestures, which they had gotten used to, however, seeing this scene, both Kong Jingshan and Elder Kong widened their eyes.

"Don’t tease, I’ll go with you."

Kong Lingwen playfully spoke, displaying a girlish demeanor.

Oh my heavens!

Kong Jingshan was dumbstruck, doubting his own perception.

From childhood to now, his daughter was a tomboy, uninterested in girly games but fond of boyish sports.

As she grew up, her style became more masculine, always being androgynous, causing him endless concern.

Never did he expect her to change completely into a true woman after a trip out with Yang Cheng.

"Haha! Great! With both of you getting along well, I’m relieved."

Elder Kong laughed heartily, slapping his thighs in joy.

He always thought it was the son’s failed marriage affecting Kong Lingwen’s personality, now finally seeing her back on track, he was comforted.

Upon hearing the laughter, Kong Lingwen came back to her senses, her cheeks still rosy.

Kong Jingshan cleared his throat and kindly said, "You should head to the hotel, if you find nothing, come back early and rest."

"Got it, Dad!"

Kong Lingwen quickly dragged Yang Cheng’s hand, and they left as if fleeing.
