Time quickly approached the May Day holiday, coinciding with the weekend. The lab notified everyone of a five-day break.
Luo Qiao had already learned about the specifics of the Soukai Family from Lu Yichen and knew that some of their elders had participated in the invasion of China. Soukai himself was far from being a gentleman of integrity.
Having made plans earlier, Luo Qiao prepared two sets of documents, acquiring a passport and identification that could pass off as real, and bought a plane ticket to Japan a few days in advance.
She didn’t tell her family that she was going to Japan, only mentioning that she had to go out for a few days due to certain matters.
Well prepared, she arrived in Japan without incident. After leaving the airport, she checked into a hotel not far from the Soukai family’s residence and, after two days of reconnaissance, mapped out the family members’ basic information and their ings and goings.
On the third night, she infiltrated the Soukai estate, found the family’s confidential files and evidence of crime in the study, and additionally swept through their basement, taking many treasures that were looted during the invasion of China.
Luo Qiao thought that those things should not end up lost abroad, and decided to secretly return them to the country when she got back to China. She also took everything from the safe, and then restored everything back to the way it was before.
Taking advantage of the night, Luo Qiao made a decision. She knew not to put all her eggs in one basket, so she distributed the confidential documents to two of the Soukai family’s rival houses.
Fearing that they might have powerful backers, she also distributed the evidence of crimes to two different police agencies. Only then did she head to the airport and bought a ticket for the next flight back to New York. By the time she had passed security and boarded the plane, the Soukai family was already in chaos.

When Luo Qiao returned home, she called Lu Yichen and spoke to him in a veiled manner, hinting to him to pay attention to the situation over there.
She spent the afternoon playing with the children in the park, and thus the May Day holiday came to an end.
A few days after returning to the lab, she received news that the Soukai Family had essentially collapsed. The police agencies first took away the head of the Soukai family. Then, due to the leak of those confidential files, their rivals caught them off guard.
Before they could react, the police froze all of the Soukai family’s assets. After being hit from both sides, the family fell into plete ruin.
Luo Qiao, upon hearing the news, thought to herself, knowing that you have fallen, I can rest assured.
Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, it was the end of August. The drug researched earlier in the year had passed the clinical trial phase and was ready for widespread promotion.
Luo Qiao made a name for herself with this acplishment. This was a project she had pleted independently, and in less than a year it had passed through three phases of clinical trials. Although there were some adverse reactions, everything was within the normal range.
Now, with its widespread promotion, she had attained both fame and fortune. Luo Qiao’s name appeared in The New York Times, being a source of pride for the Chinese munity.
Elder Rong and Rong Daniang even sent several copies of The New York Times back to China, so that their family could share in the joy.
Regarding the authorization of this drug, since the results were hers, but the funding for the experiments was applied for by Professor Wilson, Luo Qiao proposed that the patent authorization should not be exclusive.
If the drug became an import, it would be too expensive for domestic patients, so she told Professor Wilson that she would also authorize a Chinese pharmaceutical pany.
Professor Wilson understood her intentions and actively helped her mediate the matter until it was settled.
Luo Qiao immediately contacted Xu Shifan, asking him to reach out to a top domestic pharmaceutical manufacturer to bring the patent into China.
Xu Shifan was very efficient in his task, and with the help of Lu Yichen, the deal was quickly settled. The patent licensing fee was even lower than abroad, with all profit-sharing directed towards scholarships specifically for the education of impoverished students in mountainous areas.
Upon learning of this achievement, the leadership of Beijing Medical University even dedicated an issue of the school magazine to celebrate Luo Qiao’s mendable deeds for all the faculty and students to learn from.
Yang Jiancheng and the professors who had taught Luo Qiao couldn’t wipe the smiles off their faces these past few days, beaming with pride. They were truly too proud.
Luo Qiao had not expected that despite being abroad, she had bee a sensation back at Beijing Medical University.
