Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jin Yang and Qiu Tong drove to 730 Guangming Road. They wanted to find any relevant clues as soon as possible.
Qiu Tong leaned her elbow against the window and looked at the increasingly familiar scenery outside. She frowned slightly.
Jin Yang noticed Qiu Tong’s discomfort and would occasionally turn his head to look at her. “Is there something wrong?”
Qiu Tong looked down at 730 Guangming Road displayed on the navigation system. It was actually a university campus!
And this was the campus block where Professor Dong worked! Qiu Tong thought of his secret lab and the gorilla locked in the cage. When she linked all the clues she had now, she could not help arriving at a terrifying thought.
The car came to a stop by the road. Qiu Tong lowered her eyes and asked Jin Yang, “Do you believe that there is a drug that can change the human body?”
Jin Yang’s heart skipped a beat. He concealed his emotions and asked, “Why would you think that?”
Qiu Tong pointed at the building in front of them. “If the guy in my basement didn’t lie to us, I might know where those people went.”
“I once accepted a bodyguard mission from the Dark Web. It was for a professor at this school. He’s developing this drug.”
Jin Yang pursed his lips, shock flashing across his eyes.
He did not expect to find the human modification plan here!
However, that batch of drugs had already failed and been destroyed. Could Professor Dong be developing a new batch of drugs?
As the president, Jin Yang had been bitterly searching for the person who was secretly researching the drug, but he had no clues. He controlled his excitement and made a call. “Shao An, immediately arrange for a private plane. I want to return to the capital’s official residence.”
“Come back with me. There are some things I want you to understand.”
Jin Yang’s eyes were firm. Qiu Tong nodded in agreement.
In the villa, the children were not as happy when they heard that Qiu Tong might stay overnight outside. They sat in a row on the sofa and sighed with dejected expressions. Chen Jia had eavesdropped on their conversation and wanted to know where Jin Yang and Qiu Tong had gone, but she received no answer.
She saw Ye Luan returning from school and knew that he was the only child who was not related to the Qiu family by blood.
Chen Jia took the initiative to run to the door and help him remove his school bag. “School is hard, right?”
Ye Luan nodded politely. Qiu Xingyu waved her arms behind Chen Jia, sending him a secret signal and message.
If Chen Jia wanted to sow discord between Jin Yang and Qiu Tong, she could only start with the children.
She pretended to unintentionally mention all the things that had happened between her and Jin Yang. As expected, the hot-tempered Qiu Xingqiao could not hold back his anger and stood up, wanting to chase Chen Jia out. Qiu Xingyuan patted Qiu Xingqiao’s shoulder, indicating for him to calm down and not fall into Chen Jia’s trap.
Ke Le and the mercenaries patrolled the perimeter of the villa to protect the children.
Since there was no one at home, Chen Jia wanted to improve her relationship with the children. She put on a flattering smile and moved closer to Little Yu. “I heard that Little Yu knows how to design many interesting games and programs. Why don’t I play with you?”
Qiu Xingyu shook her head. She continued tapping away at her laptop, not even glancing at Chen Jia. “I don’t know anything.”
“Elder Brother, the kindergarten teacher gave us a lot of homework that I don’t know how to do. Can you help me?”
Qiu Xingyu cleverly brought Qiu Xingyuan and Qiu Xingqiao back to their room and slammed the door shut.
Chen Jia stayed in the living room alone. She turned her head and saw Ye Luan. She came up with a plan and walked over. “Little kid, I heard that you and your parents got separated. Did Qiu Tong bring you back? Can I help you find your parents? No matter how well Qiu Tong treats you, she’s not your blood relative.”
Ye Luan frowned and looked at Chen Jia calmly.
“Auntie Qiu is my family and this is my home. If you want to sow discord between me and them, please dispel this thought as soon as possible.”
“They are very kind and were willing to take you in. I hope you can control yourself and stop imitating Auntie Qiu.”
“Even if you can imitate her appearance, you will never be able to become her. You will only be a ridiculous replica, a substitute.”
Ye Luan’s every word was like a needle that pierced into Chen Jia’s heart.
In the bedroom, Qiu Xingyu was eavesdropping on the conversation outside.
She quietly gave a thumbs-up sign and turned around to say to Qiu Xingyuan, who was also very curious but was trying his best not to eavesdrop, “See! I knew that Brother Ye Luan was on the same side as us. He will definitely help Mommy!”
Qiu Xingyuan looked away. “At least he has some conscience.”
Qiu Xingqiao was wearing boxing gloves. He hammered the sandbag angrily. “What are we going to do?”
“It’s best if we can chase that bad woman away while Mommy and Uncle Jin Yang are not home!”
Qiu Xingyu raised her arms in agreement. “Mommy hasn’t smiled in the past few days since that woman moved in.”
“We can pretend to be ghosts in the middle of the night to scare her!”
Qiu Xingyu’s childish suggestion made Qiu Xingqiao’s shoulders drop.
He looked at his little sister’s innocent face helplessly and could not bear to rebut her.
Qiu Xingyuan recalled Chen Jia’s behavior during the past few days.. “I think she must have other motives. Why don’t we keep an eye on her and see what she wants to do!”
