Quick Transmigration: The Villain Is Too Pampered and Alluring - Chapter 348

After the survey was completed, Sheng Nuan took Huo Ling back to the camp.

Han Yi led Huo Ling to find a container to store the Blue Star Grass, while Sheng Nuan entered the temporary prefab cabin and saw Sheng Qingfeng sitting there, deep in thought.

The survey results were out and it was discovered that beneath the ordinary iron ore, something else was detected at a deeper level… The survey team he brought was naturally much more diligent than those sitting in their positions and eating without doing anything¹ on Imperial Star. Yet, he hadn’t expected they would actually find something else.

Moreover, according to preliminary analysis, it was a type of metal that had never appeared before.

Sheng Qingfeng knew what this meant… Just then, he saw his daughter walk in.

“Dad, I found a Blue Star Grass,” Sheng Nuan said directly.

Sheng Qingfeng was slightly startled, then smiled. “That’s great. Huo Ling’s leg can be saved.”

Sheng Nuan grinned as she walked over and sat beside him, then said seriously, “But this matter must be kept secret and can’t be spread outside!”

Sheng Qingfeng was taken aback. “What are you afraid of? You found it yourself, who could possibly snatch it? Who would dare?”

Sheng Nuan felt a bit speechless. “Dad, you’re thinking too simply. Ordinary people wouldn’t dare to rob our family… But what if it’s a high-ranking official of the Alliance? Didn’t someone’s son get electrocuted last time? What if he asks someone to get it, and if he can’t, will he resort to unscrupulous means to snatch it? Either way, it would cause a lot of trouble.”

Sheng Qingfeng’s smile faded slightly as he thought of something, then said in a deep voice, “You’re right. This matter… must not be known to others.”

What Sheng Qingfeng was thinking about was the metal ore on this desolate planet.

The Sheng family’s business had been thriving these years, inevitably attracting envy. Caution ensures the ship sails safely for ten thousand years.

Sheng Nuan glanced at Sheng Qingfeng, then added, “To be safe, it’s better to find an excuse to keep everyone here today. What if someone can’t keep their mouth shut?”

Sheng Qingfeng smiled at his daughter. “You little girl, it’s just one Blue Star Grass…”

But before he could finish, Sheng Nuan interrupted, “Dad, we know there’s only one Blue Star Grass. But if others know we found Blue Star Grass here, they might wonder if there are more, or perhaps there’s not only Blue Star Grass…”

Sheng Qingfeng paused slightly, falling silent.

When they left, the survey team stayed behind. Han Yi, along with a few bodyguards, remained to watch over them. Sheng Qingfeng’s reason was that they were starting foundational work to prepare for turning the planet into a vacation destination.

He confided in Han Yi, who said solemnly, “Please rest assured, President Sheng. Without your permission, none of these people will leave this planet alive!”

Not that they intended to harm anyone, but just to keep the information sealed…

Han Yi was reliable, so Sheng Nuan felt at ease. Then she took Huo Ling, along with Sheng Qingfeng and the remaining bodyguards, back to Imperial Star.

Upon returning to Imperial Star, Sheng Qingfeng greeted the doctor he had invited and then busied himself with matters concerning the desolate planet.

First, he needed to get the documents as soon as possible to avoid any unforeseen changes.

To prevent arousing suspicion, he restrained himself from going personally and instructed his secretary instead. When the secretary smoothly brought back the filing documents for the desolate planet, fully securing its ownership, Sheng Qingfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Outside, the secretary called in to say that Zhou Yuan had come to visit. Sheng Qingfeng directly locked the documents in the cabinet. Moments later, Zhou Yuan walked in, his face full of smiles.

Remembering his daughter’s words, Sheng Qingfeng maintained his usual demeanor towards Zhou Yuan. Then he heard Zhou Yuan mention the desolate planet, asking about the survey results.

Sheng Qingfeng pretended to wave his hand helplessly with a smile. “Don’t mention it—it’s just some worthless iron ore… But the ecological environment is indeed good. I’ve already started working on it to quickly turn it into a vacation planet and recoup the costs.”

Zhou Yuan shook his head with a smile. “Only you, with your deep pockets, would dare to toss money into such a worthless thing.”

Smiling on the surface, Zhou Yuan was full of disdain in his heart.

This idiot Sheng Qingfeng… If he had a family business like the Shengs’, he’d definitely do better than Sheng Qingfeng!

At Sheng Hospital, Huo Ling completed his treatment.

With the Blue Star Grass, plus all the most advanced equipment and the best medicinal aids at Sheng Hospital, after the doctor’s treatment, Huo Ling was told that he only needed to rest for two weeks before he could start normal activities.

To show her concern, Sheng Nuan stayed with him the whole time. She noticed that after hearing the doctor’s words, Huo Ling’s eyes finally showed some real joy and vitality—no longer his usual gentle and harmless facade.

She felt relieved.

Not to mention anything else, with this matter of the Blue Star Grass, even if Huo Ling brought back the rebel army tomorrow, the Sheng family probably wouldn’t be exiled.

In the following days, Sheng Nuan asked Aunt Liu to instruct the kitchen to make nourishing tonics for Huo Ling, giving him hearty supplements every morning and evening… After several days, Huo Ling woke up in the middle of the night with nosebleeds, almost suspecting that this was Sheng Nuan’s new method of tormenting him!

That evening, Sheng Siyang didn’t eat dinner and changed clothes to go out, saying he was meeting friends for a meal. Originally, Sheng Nuan didn’t pay much attention, but just as she finished dinner and was about to continue reviewing blueprints, customer service suddenly reminded her: “Host, Sheng Siyang is in trouble.”

Sheng Nuan was startled, then learned from customer service that Sheng Siyang had been set up.

The meeting friends for a meal that Sheng Siyang mentioned was actually with a girl he had met a couple of days ago. He didn’t know that the seemingly pure, poor little white flower was actually bait used by others to frame him.

Now, Sheng Siyang had been drugged and taken to a hotel by that girl… Those framing him had already called the police, intending to set him up for assault.

Sheng Nuan’s heart sank instantly, and she hurriedly prepared to leave.

Customer service told her: “There’s not enough time, Host, but there’s good news. Huo Ling is working part-time in the kitchen of that hotel… You can ask him for help.”

Even though Huo Ling hadn’t gone hungry recently, he still hadn’t quit that part-time job. Firstly, he didn’t know what Sheng Nuan was up to. Secondly, since Du Cheng had an incident near that area, if he quit after only a few days, he was worried it would attract the attention of others.

When his communicator rang and he saw it was Sheng Nuan, Huo Ling was momentarily stunned. The next instant, he answered suspiciously, “Hello, Miss?”

Sheng Nuan got straight to the point. “Sheng Siyang is in room A1806 upstairs. He’s been set up. I’m on my way there now. Help me save him, and I’ll owe you a favor!”

Huo Ling raised an eyebrow slightly… That full-headed and fat-bellied idiot had been set up?

His eyes were full of schadenfreude, but his tone remained as gentle and harmless as ever. “Miss, no need to be so polite. I’ll go have a look right now.”

After ending the call, Huo Ling changed clothes, left the kitchen, and went straight upstairs…
