"No." Yang Chen hurriedly explained with a wry smile: "It's because number seven is the national college entrance exam. My family's Zhen Xiu is taking the exam. Back then, I was the one who led her back to the exam. How could I travel abroad at such a critical juncture? I had to cheer her on outside of the exam grounds. If that girl grudges against me in her heart and fails the exam, Ruoxi, as the elder sister, would surely be in a cold war with me again! The chain reaction is not a joke! "
Christine gave him a strange look. "It looks like you've really become a young man. Not only do you have your sister's exam days on your mind, you also have to be on guard against angering your wife and sister. If Gao Tianyuan and the rest of Blue Storm knew that they died under the hands of such a fellow, they would probably die from anger, even if they didn't die. "
Yang Chen touched his face and said unnaturally: "Is this praising me for being responsible for my family, or am I afraid of my wife because I don't have the guts?"
"Think about the bad." Christine snorted.
Yang Chen's mouth twitched and he was at a loss for words.
"Oh right, why are you booking a plane ticket? Why not just teleport back? " Christine asked in confusion.
Yang Chen scratched the back of his head, not daring to face the woman. He smiled slowly and said, "I was just worried that if I used too much power, it would bring about another great calamity." I usually can't use my power, so it's better for me to just obediently be a normal commuter. "
Christine couldn't even be bothered to look at him this time. "Alright, I'll send someone to get the tickets and passports ready for you. It's better for you to leave as soon as possible. I've got a headache looking at you now."
Yang Chen muttered with a bit of grievance. He thought to himself, if this thunder doesn't strike you down, of course you can relax. But all he could think of was to run back upstairs and wait for daybreak before heading back to Zhong Hai.
Christine was left alone in the courtyard in the howling night breeze. She looked up at the misty rain clouds in the sky and sighed faintly.
On the other side of the ocean, it was a different scene.
China, Zhong Hai.
Lin Ruoxi, who had specifically returned home at noon, busied herself in the kitchen for a while before she and Nanny Wang finished cooking the sumptuous dishes on the table.
As the star of tomorrow's college entrance examination, Zhen Xiu was blushing as she sat in her chair, looking at the piles of meat and chickens. She was very embarrassed.
"Zhen Xiu, what are you daydreaming for, hurry up and eat while it's hot. These steamed fish, braised pig's feet, they can all mend your brain and eat more." Guo Xuehua, who was at the side, saw that the kid was hesitating by himself. She smiled as she started to serve dishes to Zhen Xiu.
Ever since Zhen Xiu had entered this house, her skin had become fair and tender as well, and she had become very spirited. Because of the blood of some Korean women, although she was young, she was quite charming. Her oval face had a straight nose and pink lips, and she was much prettier than other girls her age.
This was one of the reasons why Guo Xuehua and Nanny Wang liked this girl so much. Although they didn't judge a girl by her appearance, she was still particularly beautiful.
Zhen Xiu glanced at Lin Ruoxi, who was still silently filling the bowl with food, and whispered, "I feel sorry for Sister Ruoxi. Because of me alone, everyone has been so busy preparing so many things for me. Even Sister Ruoxi has specially come home from work to cook for me …"
"Foolish child, Ruoxi-jie would only do that if she was happy. If you eat too little, it will make us unhappy." Guo Xuehua reached out and pinched Zhen Xiu's small face as she said lovingly.
When Lin Ruoxi heard her mother-in-law and Zhen Xiu talking about her, she calmly gave Zhen Xiu a chicken wing with her chopsticks. "Eat."
Zhen Xiu nodded and smiled sweetly as she started to scoop the rice into her mouth.
The four women in the family ate happily, but there was something less than usual.
Halfway through her meal, Nanny Wang couldn't help but ask, "Miss, when will Young Master return? Tomorrow is the college entrance exam, can't he come back? "
Hearing about Yang Chen, Guo Xuehua frowned, "This child, why did he suddenly go to the United States? Even when he had a home, he did not know how to rest or rest. Furthermore, he did not even bother to say goodbye when he went out. When he comes back, I have to teach him a lesson. "
While eating, Lin Ruoxi paused for a moment and said, "Because on the American side, Christine's family can only make calls and not be called. He also doesn't have his cell phone, so we can't contact him. He's in such a hurry, I'm afraid he won't be able to make it back. "
Hearing this, Zhen Xiu's big eyes revealed a hint of disappointment, but she didn't say anything.
However, how could the three adults not feel it? After all, Zhen Xiu was brought home by Yang Chen, and it was Yang Chen who taught her to go back to school so that she could go back to school. Even though they often fought and argued, no one could tell that Zhen Xiu's relationship with Yang Chen was not that close even when she called Lin Ruoxi 'big sister'.
For Zhen Xiu, who had no parents, Yang Chen's place in her heart was far more important than she had imagined.
When she entered the exam grounds, Yang Chen was in the distant United States. For girls, it was always a difficult thing to do.
After a while, Lin Ruoxi said lightly, "Zhen Xiu, sister won't be going to work tomorrow. I'll send you to the exam grounds, okay?"
When Zhen Xiu heard this, she hurriedly shook her head and said, "No way, no way. Sister Ruoxi, you purposely went home early today to cook for me, so I feel very sorry for it. How could I let you take the time to accompany me to the exam grounds tomorrow …"
Lin Ruoxi didn't seem to hear what Zhen Xiu said. She nodded and muttered, "It's a deal then. I'll get up for breakfast tomorrow. After we finish eating, we'll go to the examination hall and bring you home."
Zhen Xiu's eyes were filled with emotion. She pursed her lips, but was unable to say anything. On the side, Guo Xuehua and Nanny Wang shook their heads and chuckled after looking at each other.
At the same time, Yanjing, a secret research facility in the mountain area outside the city.
In the underground laboratory, which was constructed with alloy seals, bright lights lit up every inch of the room. Countless transparent glass experiment tools were placed there, some of them empty while others filled with a strange bright liquid.
In the middle of the laboratory, there was a white surgical table, which seemed to be used for dissecting large specimens.
At this moment, a dead body of a middle-aged woman was lying on the floor. Her face was pale and her body was cold. It was Luo Cuishan who was forced to drink poison by Ning Guangyao Qiang.
A tall, muscular man with long, messy hair, who was wearing a white coat, was looking at the corpse with an evil look in his eyes, as if he were pondering about something particularly interesting.
"Eldest Young Master, this woman is completely dead. Is it really necessary to use such a meticulous method to transport the corpse here?"
A man who was also wearing a white isolation suit asked with a puzzled expression.
If Luo Cuishan was still alive and awake, she would have realized that this man was actually one of the two white-robed men who had given her the medicine!
This young master was naturally Yan Buwen, and Yan Buwen's legs, which were previously broken by the woman, had miraculously recovered in such a short period of time!
Yan Buwen sneered and said, "Who told you that this woman is completely dead?"
The man was stunned, "Don't tell me you can save her? But her heart had stopped beating for hours. "It's clear that she died from brain damage. Is there any way to save her …"
Yan Buwen raised a finger and cut across Luo Cuishan's stiff face. He sneered: "Even if there's only one brain left in my world, she won't die, she won't disappear either. "Moreover, this person's body is very healthy …"
Hearing these eerie words, the man couldn't help but shiver all over. He forced a smile and said: "Young Master really isn't an existence that we small figures can look up to. I'm the one who's blabbering too much."
Yan Buwen narrowed his eyes and turned his head to ask, "Yang Lieh, have you done what I told you to do?"
The man nodded and quickly said, "The people below just reported that Yang Lieh went to find Ning Guodong. Now Ning Guodong still thinks his mother is dead and is wiping away his tears at our disguised corpse. He probably won't be able to come here until tomorrow."
"Since that's the case, then you should first freeze the body. When Ning Guodong comes tomorrow, I'll let the mother and son meet up …" Yan Buwen opened his mouth, his expression distorted like that of an evil spirit.
The quarantine uniform man stood to the side, his entire body shivering as he hurriedly agreed …
