"Song Yun, are you the mystery donor?"

Upon hearing Xia Tian’s words, Song Yun felt a jolt in his heart, thinking how Xia Tian could possibly suspect him, since he hadn’t leaked any information.

He looked at Xia Tian and smiled, "Xia Tian, if I had donated $700 million, I certainly would be boasting about it. I wouldn’t stay silent."

"But my intuition tells me that the mystery donor is you."

Xia Tian looked at Song Yun with a gentle and calm smile, yet there was a hint of certainty in her tone.

Song Yun raised his hand earnestly, "I swear to the heavens, this $700 million was definitely not donated by me."

He wasn’t lying; the $700 million wasn’t technically his donation, but rather he coerced Turison into donating it.

Seeing this, Xia Tian didn’t press further and laughed, "Alright, if you say it’s not, then it isn’t."

Even saying this, Xia Tian’s eyes told Song Yun she didn’t believe him.

Song Yun was anxious inside, thinking Xia Tian’s intuition was really impressive.

"Yu Xue is awake."

As the two were talking, the ward door opened, and Zhao Yan joyfully announced.

Everyone sitting outside the ward stood up immediately and started heading towards it.

Song Yun glanced at the ward door, "Grandfather, you all go in first, and the others can go in later."

The other women had to stop, while Mr. Song and Song Ergou quickly entered the ward.

Since Song Yuxue had just woken up, seeing the elders could help stabilize her emotions and give her a sense of security, that’s why Song Yun suggested this. He didn’t enter this time, planning to go in the second wave.

After over half an hour, Mr. Song and the others came out of the ward. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Song Yun entered the ward with Xia Tian, Qingluan, Li Shishi, Mo Yuyao, Xu Ying, and Zhao Yan.

Although Song Yuxue still looked somewhat weak and haggard, her face had regained some color, and there was a sparkle in her eyes.

Seeing Song Yun and the others, she felt deeply moved.

"Brother, thank you."

Song Yuxue looked at Song Yun and suddenly spoke solemnly.

At that time, she thought she was going to die, and it wasn’t until she woke up just now that she realized she was still alive.

Upon asking, she learned that Song Yun had saved her.

The Song Family was a large family, and Song Ergou had told Song Yuxue about what Song Yun had done in West Africa. Knowing the trouble Song Yun had gone through for her, she felt a wave of warmth and sweetness in her heart.

Having such a brother who was always thinking about her made her feel incredibly blessed.

Song Yun walked to the bedside and looked at Song Yuxue, "Yu Xue, you’re my sister. Saying thank you is too formal. If you really want to repay me, after you recover, and you don’t mind me handing over some businesses to you and harnessing your talent, I’d be more than happy."

Everyone couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing this.

Song Yuxue smiled softly, and with an indifferent look on her face, she unexpectedly said, "Alright, once I recover, I will make sure my brother just sits back and collects money effortlessly."

Song Yun, not at all bashful, chuckled, "Hehe, focus on getting better first."

Song Yuxue nodded, her face full of sweetness.

Seeing the harmonious atmosphere, Xia Tian giggled and said, "Yu Xue, you wouldn’t believe it, but that silly Zhao Yan fed your medicine with his mouth during your treatment."

Zhao Yan’s face turned bright red upon hearing this.

Song Yuxue grew even more bashful, thinking how her first kiss unknowingly went to Zhao Yan in such a way.

Nonetheless, she didn’t regret it at all and instead felt very happy because, in her heart, she also liked Zhao Yan, who seemed a bit silly.

Song Yun originally didn’t want to expose this, but unexpectedly, Xia Tian carelessly mentioned it.

He didn’t dwell on it and asked Song Yuxue, "Yu Xue, what happened when you were abroad?"

Upon hearing this question, the atmosphere in the ward turned heavy.

Song Yuxue frowned slightly, with a look of recollection on her face, and recounted what she saw and heard before she fell unconscious.

That day, Song Yuxue and others were on their way to visit a recluse when Azure Dragon suddenly felt something was off.

They were then ambushed.

Without any defenses, their people were all killed. Azure Dragon and Song Qingyan disappeared, and only Song Yuxue survived because she was trapped under the car and went unnoticed.

She was fortunate enough to have been in a depression under the car, thanks to the uneven ground, which allowed her body to fit.

Otherwise, she would’ve been crushed to death without needing enemy fire.

Even so, Song Yuxue was gravely injured.

Song Yun asked, "Do you know who ambushed you?"

Song Yuxue shook her head, "When the explosion happened, the whole car was blown away, and I passed out immediately. As I was being blown away, I tried to note their clothing and insignia but found nothing."

If she didn’t know even this, it would be hard to determine who was behind it.

Generally, in such large-scale operations, after creating some chaos, someone would jump out and claim responsibility, as a way to make a name for themselves.

Apparently, the opponent was hiding their identity, which was different from the usual style of those bastards.

Song Yun asked, "Yu Xue, think again, aside from what you saw, did you hear anything?"

Song Yuxue frowned in thought, and her eyes lit up, "I remember, in a daze, I heard them speaking Japanese... some gibberish I didn’t catch clearly, oh, and I seemed to see the throwing weapon used by Ninja in the corner of my eye."

Iga or Earth Ghost Group?

From Song Yuxue’s words, Song Yun immediately identified the two most likely suspects behind the incident.

Iga was the most famous ninja family in Japan, while the Earth Ghost Group was the guard unit of the Heavenly Emperor, also extremely formidable. The others were minor families with no capability to orchestrate such an attack.

Song Yun scratched his head and told Song Yuxue, "Ah, Yu Xue, these clues are too scattered, and it’s hard to deduce who’s behind this."

Song Yuxue looked at Song Yun and asked, "Brother, why are you asking about this?"

Song Yun chuckled, "If I knew who was behind the scenes, I’d draw a curse circle on their picture, ensuring they wouldn’t survive ten days."

Everyone in the ward burst out laughing upon hearing this.

After chatting with Song Yuxue for a bit, Song Yun left the ward.

Once outside, his lazy smile faded, and a hint of murderous intent flickered in his eyes, as he murmured, "You bastards, thinking you could finally get some peace after the National Guardian God’s death, yet you dared to lay hands on my family. Wash your necks and wait for me."
