Chapter 237: Chapter 222: Turmoil
As Jiang Yan told her story, Lin Yun quickly understood what had happened.
As it turned out, Jiang Yan and a girl named Qi Weiwei were good friends.
Qi Weiwei's mother was ill and required a substantial sum for medical expenses every day, forcing her to work in high-paying places.
The Nightingale Bar, where she used to work, was one of these places. However, following the incident with Lin Yun and Xia Qingqing, she didn't dare to stay there anymore. After a few job changes, she ended up at the Royal Club.
Unexpectedly, she encountered those people today and was targeted.
At the time, Qi Weiwei had managed to call and ask Jiang Yan for help.
Most customers, when interrupted in this way, would not continue. However, even after Jiang Yan arrived and ended up involved, even after she revealed that she worked at Qingyun Hotel and Qingyun Restaurant, those people didn't care.
Jiang Yan recognized that these people weren't ordinary. Unable to find any other person for help, she tried to reach out to Lin Yun when she saw his number in her phone book. Surprisingly, she made the call.
"Wait a moment, I'll take you both to the Qingyun Hotel, get a room there and make sure to take care of her. By the way, do you know which hospital and ward her mother is in, and what disease she has?" Lin Yun asked with a slight nod.
"Third People's Hospital, Ward 1307, late-stage stomach cancer..." Jiang Yan quickly responded.
The fact that she could provide such detailed information showed her close relationship with Qi Weiwei.
"Yes, after a while I'll arrange for her mother to be transferred to the Qingyun Hotel. Late-stage stomach cancer isn't impossible to cure. I can treat it," Lin Yun said, nodding his agreement.
Qi Weiwei's eyes were dull as she processed the recent events, which had dealt a severe blow to both her psyche and physical state. Only when hearing about her mother did they seem to fill with a hint of color. Upon hearing that Lin Yun intended to transfer her mother to the Qingyun Hotel, she finally came to her senses and feebly said, "No."
She didn't want her mother to see her current state, let alone know about what she had been through.

However, her reaction came too late — Lin Yun had already finished speaking.
"You... you said... you can... cure... my mother's illness?" She struggled to lift her head to look at Lin Yun, disbelief in her weak voice.
It was late-stage cancer... Such a diagnosis was a death sentence, with the only question being whether death would come sooner or later.
"I can cure it. Therefore, you should recover as quickly as possible. Your mother still needs your help. Taking this pellet will expedite the recovery of your physical condition," Lin Yun stated with a nod.
As he spoke, he produced a healing pellet and placed it in Qi Weiwei's mouth.
The pellet dissolved instantly once it entered her mouth. A surge of powerful energy immediately flooded Qi Weiwei, rejuvenating her physically and mentally.
Originally, she was concerned that Lin Yun was deceiving her just to put her at ease, but at that moment she had no doubts about his sincerity.
"You...you're the boy from the bar that night..." suddenly, Qi Weiwei looked at Lin Yun in surprise.
Only then did she realize that the person who rescued her and Jiang Yan, was the same boy she had had a good impression of when she met him at the Nightingale Bar. It was this incident that had led her to leave the Nightingale Bar in the first place.
For some reason, finding out the one who saved them was the same boy from before eased her mind. Overwhelmed with exhaustion, she closed her eyes in relief and fell asleep.
...
"Capital City, the Lu Family, and that Master Lu..."
After arranging everything, Lin Yun sat alone in the car murmuring these words.
Since he had left the Royal Club, he had instructed his super-brain to search for information about the Lu family in Capital City, about Lu Mingtao, and about Master Lu, whose face he scanned into the super-brain for identification.
Now, a lot of information about the Lu family in Capital City and information about Lu Mingtao and Master Lu had come up.
The Lu family from Capital City was a prestigious family, illustrious since the founding of the nation. Although they weren't at the top in Capital City, they were highly influential, with strong tangential relations with the official and military sectors in various trades and industries.
Master Mie, whose full name was Mie Hai, was the only son of the Shen City's top official. His family held vast powers in the South China region, officialdom, military, and various other industries.
Both these families were formidable.
Lu Mingtao and Mie Hai, the scions of these two families, were very dominating in their conduct.
Lin Yun suspected that some powerful forces might come to bother him, seek benefits from him, but he hadn't anticipated such overbearing behaviors. Nor had he expected things to evolve this way that somewhat disrupted his plans.
Consequently, his time had become very limited.
He took out his super brain, quickly operating numerous videos.
These videos all showcased Master Lu and Master Mie, along with their entourage, arriving and leaving the Royal Club; they were footages from their entire journey.
He wasn't deleting these videos; instead, he was modifying them based on their original content.
He had done this sort of things before, only that he had modified videos from Immortal Origin County then, so that his products placed there didn't appear out of the blue.
These videos might not withstand scrutiny, but they could absolutely increase the investigation difficulty for the Lu and Mie families.
Many videos weren't connected to the network, and it was only because he had already learned high-level network knowledge and upgraded his super brain that he was able to gain access via multiple channels.
An hour later, Lin Yun completed all this. Then, he started to carefully analyze the information about the Lu and Mie families.
Although the Lu and Mie families were strong, they weren't short of enemies. He searched for information unfavorable to these two families and sent them one by one to their enemies.
Or, he would disclose it on the internet.
In short, he first created some chaos in these two families to distract their attention.
Perhaps, he could even divert their suspicions and lead them to believe that the disappearance of Lu Mingtao and Mie Hai was the work of their respective opponents.
Alas, these two families weren't ordinary, and they were very cautious with their actions. There wasn't much information about these two families that Lin Yun could find on the internet, and there weren't too many substantial events either.
The strength of these two families was too heavy. This information was insufficient to shake the foundations of these two families and could only create some chaos.
The next day, everything seemed normal on the surface.
In the following time, Lin Yun instructed the procurement officials to accelerate the pace of gathering resources, while simultaneously contacting personnel from various factories to discuss the handover of the upcoming products.
The first batch of products had arrived, and all the factories were quite satisfied after assembling them into new products. The high-level officials of these factories were very positive after receiving calls from Qingyun Company.
They were highly confident about the market for the new products.
At this moment, they were afraid that after they launched the new products on the market, particularly after massive promotion, if Qingyun Company ran out of stock, they would suffer a significant loss.
Therefore, they strongly agreed with Qingyun Company's intention to speed up the supply. Some companies even wired the payment in advance to Qingyun Company's account to receive the products earlier.
Money rapidly flowed into Qingyun Company and into Lin Yun's bank account, transactions after transactions.
One day... Two days... Three days...
The Lu and Mie families indeed fell into chaos, for a time, they couldn't concentrate on investigating the affairs of Lu Mingtao and Mie Hai.
Some of their people even inferred that Lu Mingtao and Mie Hai had been kidnapped. They were investigating the whereabouts of Lu Mingtao and Mie Hai while waiting for contact from the kidnapper.
Some people, just as Lin Yun had predicted, suspected that this incident was plotted by their competitors.
For a moment, there was turmoil in various parts of Huaxia.
