Heard a chorus of screams ringing in her ears. Chen Meng carefully lifted her hand from her eyes. Damn! A bunch of people exploded in headaches and tears.gif She finally confirmed that Second Brother really wasn't easy to converse with, he was absolutely a wolf in disguise. "Don't daze out, let's go!" Releasing the fat man in front of him, Chen Fei turned back to pull his bewildered little sister. Energy Points: 997/5000 Just three more tons of metal, and he wouldn't have to bother choosing between the "DC Power Management Module" and the "AC Power Management Module"; of course, he'd take them all. It's just unknown whether the Dog System would continue to cause trouble on the "Basic Laser Emitter"; Energy Points couldn't be less, they were essential. Chen Meng, being dragged along, still couldn't believe it and said, "Hey, hey, hey, are we just leaving like this?" Her heart was panicking a lot. So many supernatural power users, wouldn't there be any consequences? Chen Fei smiled faintly and countered, "Or would you rather stay behind?" He was too lazy to stay and waste more words. With Energy Points in hand, there was no better time to leave. You see, this Dog System; though the mission was more than fulfilled, it still wouldn't give more Energy Points, stingy and low-quality, no wonder it started with DOS. What exactly is DOS anyway? It's basically UNIX's file management module, not even a real system, falsely claiming to be an operating system just to deceive laymen. "Well..." Thinking about herself as just an ordinary, weak girl, she really didn't have the nerve to stay, especially when the matter didn't involve her! Chen Meng quickly made up her mind and hastily said, "Let's go, let's go!" Scuttling away! Leaving behind a complete mess. "Bro, we're just leaving like this, it won't cause any trouble, right?" Only when they had descended the stairs and left the Psychic Management Center did Chen Fei feel a wave of apprehension, afraid not of the supernatural power users, but of the government officials. Fearing that the rough iron chains would rattle, and they might have to make a trip to the yamen. Don't think this is a joke; the limited edition rose gold handcuffs might not even secure those supernatural power users, less effective than wrapping them up mummy-style with big iron chains. "There are cameras, no one is blind!" Chen Fei made a pun. Little Sister Chen Meng thought about it, finally catching on, and nodded. "Oh!" Indeed, one look at the surveillance and everything was clear, video and audio, the truth laid bare. Chen Fei and Little Sister Chen Meng were completely blameless on their part. The last "Light Burst Flash" was done by Pure Light Sparrow Xiao Jiu, it couldn't be counted as Chen Fei misusing his special ability, moreover, this spell could at most cause a temporary blindness, but no real harm. After all, the Pure Light Sparrow ranks as a genuinely harmless, beneficial magical beast. Moreover, upon checking, the second-ranking Level B supernatural power user locally, if you have issues, go fight him! Go on! A bear and a brainless person are quite different. - Just then, Little Sister Chen Meng, carrying an empty plate back to the kitchen, heard what Elder Sister said and, quickening her steps, grabbed Second Brother's cellphone, scrolled to a message she had seen at noon, and excitedly showed it to Elder Sister. There hadn't been a chance to mention it at lunch, but now the opportunity had arisen. Sima Xin glanced at the cellphone screen involuntarily and soon her eyes widened in disbelief. What did she see? "... Current account balance: 2,244,780 Star Yuan." If the numbers were counted correctly, that should be over two million Star Yuan. "Xiao Meng..." The matriarch in the kitchen was turning back to her severe ways, preparing her slippers as if they were weapons. Not focusing on studying, always up to this and that, with the college entrance exam countdown already ticking. Doesn't she realize every wasted minute can never be regained? "I know, I know!" Little Sister Chen flinched in fright, quickly tossed the cellphone back to Second Brother as if she saw a cat while being a mouse, and swiftly dashed back to her room—at least, she pretended to be studying hard there. Seeing Little Sister in this state, Chen Fei couldn't help but feel a mix of amusement and sympathy. "Really that much?" Elder Sister Sima Xin was in disbelief. "Occasionally, not often. It's completely out of luck, more precisely, it's a collective bonus," Chen Fei shrugged. With the war over and peace returning, there would be no more such earnings this month; as usual, just a base salary and standard bonus. For a bonus of over two million, to let Aircrew Base and Merman Brothers continue to fight to death would likely make both sides' bosses spit blood in frustration. What was this? For a single brick, tear down the entire building—it was absurd to even think about it more. At six in the afternoon, Elder Brother Chen Shi finally made it home on time for dinner and greeted Second Brother Chen Fei with several punches—a playful fight followed by a tight hug as they laughed face to face. Real brothers indeed! The Chen Family had members who were officials, soldiers, tycoons, and working-class citizens. Some were rich, and some were poor, but the affection among them was strong. They never allowed money or social status to interfere and sour the familial bonds and affections. "Second Son, from the looks of it, you must be doing well," Being seasoned from years in society, Elder Brother Chen Shi quickly guessed some things, reviewing Second Brother with a thorough look. "Fairly well," Chen Fei replied, yet his sentiment was hard to express. It's a long story without a mother for the child; so rather than explaining and causing unnecessary worry at home, he chose to keep it to himself. "I heard from Sima Xin that you've paid off a small part of that debt?" Elder Brother Chen Shi, who constantly brought up the huge debt that Second Brother alone had taken on, recognized that this debt nearly plunged the old Chen Family into dire straits. As Little Sister Chen Meng disclosed the over two million Star Yuan, the entire family now knew, and suddenly everyone felt a great relief from the burden. "Got over two million, haven't paid it off yet," Chen Fei had just received this payment combining salary and bonus, so he had not yet had time to deal with his personal debt. "Go and pay it off first. As for the other three million, I will find someone to borrow money from and pay it off too. I'll handle everything else," Elder Brother Chen Shi firmly patted his brother's shoulder. Back when he was getting married, both arranging the wedding feast and the down payment for a new house had drained Elder Brother Chen Shi's savings entirely. Unable to help with the huge problem Little Sister had revealed, he could only stick to his plot of land with his wife Sima Xin, managing somehow to get through the wedding ceremony. Now that Second Brother had earned a sum and paid off part of the debt, as the head of the family, it was naturally Elder Brother's duty to take on the major responsibility, believing his wife would surely support him. "Chen Shi is right, Xiao Fei, you shouldn't have to bear it all alone," Sima Xin concluded, exchanging glances with her husband Chen Shi, the couple sharing an unspoken understanding. -
