Ruan Anxi woke up while Ning Ran and Qiao Zhan were conversing.

He had a weak constitution and suffered from a chronic cough.

That was the reason why he studied medicine. However, he realized that while he could cure others, he couldn't cure himself.

The weaker a person was, the more they would desire to become stronger to prove themselves.

Therefore, he gave up studying medicine. He started dabbling in business and became influential in underground circles in South East Aploth.

Being the son of an illegitimate royal family member granted him convenience. His business flourished in the underground circles, and he amassed great wealth.

However, his health didn't improve with his fortune. He was still a sickly man despite his increasing influence.

Some problems couldn't be solved with money. To him, as long as the matter was something that could be settled with money, it was trivial.

Of course, for those who did not have money, financial stress was a problem they could not solve.

Ruan Anxi had actually brought his subordinates here. However, he instructed them to leave when he realized no one was in the house.

He stayed in the room by himself. On one hand, he wanted to try his luck on whether Lu Jingyuan would suddenly return.

On the other hand, he also wished to investigate Lu Jingyuan's home in order to find some clues.

Coincidentally, Ning Ran and the others arrived right when Ruan Anxi's subordinates left.

Ruan Anxi was a person who liked silence. He was different from those hooligans who enjoyed parading around with a group of subordinates to put on airs.

He would never bring anyone if he knew he could handle the matter alone.

They would only expose themselves if there were too many people on the task.

Therefore, he was able to protect himself with just a scalpel for so many years.

Rather than protecting his safety, his hundreds of subordinates were used to safeguard his business.
