21 Do You Know Something?

" I can not tell you much about the incident as it is a confidential matter but in brief, the general has been the victim of a scheme and even though he managed to escape, he suffered from a brain injury which affected a certain part of his brain that consequently made him regress mentally. He is now mentally six. Of course, this situation is temporary and my medical team and I will do whatever it is necessary for him to go back to his normal age in the fastest way possible with no after-effects. " Fei Long swiftly explained the big boss's situation.

After the reveal of this shocking truth, Zhi Ruo didn't know how to react and merely blinked her eyes in a state of bewilderment.

' How the hell did the big boss end up like that? ' Zhi Ruo was shocked.

" I see...How long will it take for him to go back to normal? " Zhi Ruo curiously asked.

" On average, it shall take a few weeks around a month and a half but as we want no sequel we still need to confirm the right procedure for him to heal. " Fei Long raised his glasses.

" And how long has it been since he got injured? " Zhi Ruo demanded.

" A week. " Fei Long replied.

" He doesn't have a physical injury? " Zhi Ruo questioned.

" He has only been shot near the brain. " Fei Long said.

" I see..." Zhi Ruo trailed her words.

' Wow...his enemies are prepared...Knowing that this big boss is even stronger than the male lead means that he is almost considered a god but for them to injure him to this extent is still incredible! When you are after someone's life, you want to kill them swiftly so the heart of the brain is the obvious target but if I remember well the big boss comes from an affluent family making it even harder for his enemies to kill him as it would cause an uproar..."

" Was it during a mission? " Zhi Ruo furrowed her brows.

" Yes. Unfortunately, Miss Zhi, I can not tell you more, it would violate my contract of confidentiality. " Fei Long told her.

" You are working under Jiang Boxi? " Zhi Ruo was surprised.

" Yes. "

" Very well, I shall not ask anything more on this matter. Now tell me if there is anything I should be careful with during his recovery at our mansion. "

" Of course, as Wang Yong is very fragile with the mentality of a child, he will need a lot of attention and love..." Fei Long fluently developed the whole medical side of the treatment, " However, the human is very complex and we may never be able to completely grasp it's a full understanding so no matter what, we should try to please him so he doesn't overact and cause after effects...

Half an hour later, Zhi Ruo felt suffocated with all the new knowledge stuffed into her head as she barely managed to remember everything.

Hopefully, she was a hacker and had a good memory...

" I shall make sure to accommodate him accordingly. " Zhi Ruo said while cursing the big boss mentally.

" Thank you for your cooperation. " Fei Long spoke.

" Hmm. I need to talk to Jiang Boxi on the phone for a while so you can just head downstairs now, I will join you later. " Zhi Ruo instructed.

" I understand. Thank you for your time, Miss Zhi. " Fei Long nodded his head before closing the door behind him and walking down the stairs.

Zhi Ruo sat for a while in deep thoughts.

' I am a hundred percent sure that this event never happened in the novel because if Zhi Ruo truly had helped the big boss then why would she end up so miserably if she could just hug onto his big thigh...? That's not the point here! ' Zhi Ruo shook her head to focus back.

' If I wanted to take revenge on someone without killing them I would either put him to jail or cripple him...Following this logic, if the big boss is a general it is most definitely almost impossible to put him in jail but heavily injuring him is a possible option. Fei Long said that he was shot near the brain which means the aim was the brain...but wouldn't a bullet in the head kill him? '

" This doesn't make sense... " Zhi Ruo scrunched her nose.

' What if the person who shot didn't miss and wanted him to be injured mentally? That means it wouldn't be revenge as the big boss would still have his family to support him and Wang Yong wouldn't personally feel the defeat... '

" OMG! I'm so dumb" Zhi Ruo hit her head as she realized.

' I am in a novel! The obvious answer would be that someone is plotting against him to steal his general position or to steal his inheritance or something...Jiang Boxi mentioned a grandpa and all the grandpas in the novel are powerful and rich which would make sense in this context...This also leads to the conclusion that it is someone close to him! '

" Gosh...I'm so smart..." Zhi Ruo arrogantly praised herself after making her discovery.

" But aren't I too concerned about this situation..." Zhi Ruo frowned.

" And this Jiang Boxi pretending to be a dumb bunny when he is acquainted with the big boss... "

" Either way, I'll just get confirmation from Jiang Boxi. " Zhi Ruo dialled his number and put her phone next to her ear.

It rang for a while before the other side picked up.

" Hello, Ruoruo? " Jiang Boxi said in a cheery tone.

" Jiang Boxi what the hell took you so long to answer? " Zhi Ruo coldly responded.

" Well...hum...you know stuff..." Jiang Boxi awkwardly replied.

Zhi Ruo rolled her eyes and told him, " How far have you discovered by now? Any strong leads? "

Jiang Boxi was surprised for a second before laughing and saying, " Some leads, nothing definite. Do you know something? "
