Looking at Yun Hanrui, who seemed both troubled and somewhat bewildered, Ling Feng gently caressed her hair and whispered, "I know your mind is in turmoil right now, and you might not agree with my point of view in a short time, but that's okay. Today, I just wanted to make my feelings clear to you!"

Yun Hanrui opened her eyes, looking at Ling Feng with complexity.

Ling Feng patted Yun Hanrui on the head and said, "Alright, stop making such a face. It's not that big of a deal. I'll take you home to rest."

With that, Ling Feng started the car again.

After bringing Yun Hanrui back home, both Uncle Yun and Aunt Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

However, seeing that Yun Hanrui looked somewhat displeased, Aunt Yun accompanied her back to the bedroom, while in the living room, Uncle Yun sat facing Ling Feng.

"Xiao Feng, we owe you one this time! Otherwise, Chaoyang Group really would have been in danger!" Uncle Yun exclaimed with a sigh.

Ling Feng smiled, "Uncle Yun, you're too polite. After all, I own forty percent of Chaoyang Group's shares. If Chaoyang Group were to decline, wouldn't my shares shrink as well?"

Uncle Yun laughed, "You sly kid. By the way, can you tell me what happened?"

Ling Feng thought for a moment and then narrated the events.

After learning about Lin Zhijie's actions from Tang Fengxiao and Feng Tianyi, Ling Feng had Feng Tianyi secretly surveil Lin Zhijie. He knew that once Sun Xiaofei woke up, Lin Zhijie would be cornered, so he definitely had to make a move in these two days!

Indeed, while under surveillance, Feng Tianyi discovered Lin Zhijie's contact with Qing Mu and learned that Qing Mu would definitely go to the archives to steal research materials. Ling Feng decided to use this to his advantage and set a trap using those materials to lure out the mastermind behind the scenes.

To ensure the success of the plan, Ling Feng did not stop them from stealing the materials but instead switched the contents of the safety deposit box at the Swiss Bank.

What followed was the exposure of the materials. Lin Zhijie cleverly made a suggestion, and Yun Hanrui cooperated with his proposal at the right moment, retrieving the swapped safety deposit box from the Swiss Bank.

However, Ling Feng regretted that Muteng Yiyang was too cautious and did not appear until the very end.

After listening to the entire description by Ling Feng, Uncle Yun's face showed an angry expression: "It's infuriating, to think that over a decade has passed and those Fusang people still won't let it go!"

Ling Feng asked in confusion, "Uncle Yun, what do you mean? Did the Fusang people have such intentions more than a decade ago?"

Uncle Yun nodded, "Back then, your father was the director of our lab. Under his leadership, our lab quickly achieved many results, some of which were even leading at the global level!"

At this point, Uncle Yun said with a sigh, "If your father were still alive today, he definitely would have been a world-renowned expert in biology. It's just a pity..."

Although Ling Feng had little memory of his father's work, the frequent praises from Yun Yang suggested that Ling Guoliang indeed was a world-renowned genius in biology.

"At that time, the Fusang Person approached your father, trying to poach him from Chaoyang Group. Perhaps you aren't aware, but your father was someone with a strong sense of youthful concern and straightforwardness; he did not give those Fusang people any face and even repeatedly refused to meet them!"

"When the Fusang People realized they couldn't persuade your father, they were extremely vexed, but they were powerless against him! Eventually, they managed to bribe a deputy in the laboratory, hoping to steal the research findings through him!

At first, they were indeed successful and the initial research data was stolen, but your father discovered it later and ruthlessly had that deputy thrown into jail while demanding the police arrest those Fusang people!"

"Since the Fusang people were also aware that their actions had violated the crime of stealing commercial secrets, they fled swiftly. After your family of three went missing, those Fusang people came back again, offering a lot of money to purchase your father's left behind data! However, I rejected them.

At that time, the nation started to support private enterprises, especially those with independent research technologies, and our Chaoyang Group came under the national spotlight, so those Fusang people had no choice but to give up!"

"But who would have thought that their ambition never died, and they actually set up such a scheme!"

After listening to Yun Yang's account, Ling Feng couldn't help but be amazed, "What exactly were my father's research results that the Fusang People dwelled on them for nearly twenty years?"

Yun Yang said, "I was also very hesitant about what to do with those research findings! Your father once said that those results were like Pandora's box; once opened, it could have a massive impact on the entire world, even bringing about a destruction-level disaster. Therefore, after he disappeared, I sealed that research up, and save for you, I have not mentioned it to anyone else!"

Out of curiosity, Ling Feng asked, "What kind of research findings were they?"

Yun Yang said with a wry smile, "To tell you the truth, I don't know either. Your father's research had even surpassed the current level of biological studies. He once told me that if his research could be successful, it would usher in a new era of human evolution!"

Hissss! Ling Feng couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.

Yun Yang continued, "Last time Xiao Rui was kidnapped, they demanded the gene optimization research data from your father's work, but I can tell you, the gene optimization study was merely auxiliary research conducted to validate that hypothesis!"

"How is that possible!" Ling Feng was somewhat in disbelief.

As if caught up in memories, Yun Yang said, "Your father once excitedly told me that if his research succeeded, humans no longer would envy the birds' wings, bats' echolocation, dolphins' sonar systems, or geckos' regenerative tails... But, before his research could succeed, he destroyed all the materials, and I could only preserve some of the very initial data!"

Yun Yang's face was filled with sighs, but what he didn't notice was that Ling Feng's face had turned particularly ugly!

His body was trembling subtly, and his hands clenched tightly under his sleeves.

"Why? Why does my father's past research have so many similarities to the Mad Doctor's research!" Ling Feng roared inwardly.

Those unbearable past events once again surfaced in Ling Feng's mind, the emptiness of the underground room, where countless children were encased in cultivation tanks, just like little white mice in a lab, awaiting the Mad Doctor's gene experiment!

Ling Feng would also not forget, the Mad Doctor had injected a potion called "Gene Alpha" into his body, which was the first time Ling Feng received gene medicine, and during that time he writhed in a dungeon for an entire month, constantly enduring soul-piercing pain as if every cell in his body was exploding!
