Chen Mo left. In fact, he still had a lot of things he wanted to tell Ji Nian, but thinking about it, he felt it would be too much and might annoy her. So, ‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‍he entrusted everything to his lawyer. The lawyer would inform Ji Nian of his death and convey his final words. The child might be upset, but kids have short memories, and time would inevitably dull her emotions. Even if Ji Tingzhou didn't treat her well in the future, with the things and people Chen Mo left behind, Ji Nian wouldn't have to worry about not living well. Yes, everything was properly arranged. He would personally apologize to his sister when he saw her below, admitting that he was a useless younger brother who couldn't even fulfill his duty to avenge her. At least, he would get to see his sister again, so death wasn't so terrifying after all... But why did Chen Mo suddenly feel the cold touch of liquid when he raised his hand? ... After handing Ji Nian's gifts to the servants at the Ji household, No. 1 took his leave. Ji Nian turned her head and said, "Thank you, Uncle No. 1." No. 1 paused, surprised that Ji Nian knew his name. "You're welcome." He spoke to the child with some awkwardness. As soon as he left, Ji Nian told the servant and walked towards her laboratory. "Da Dan, be a good boy and go play by yourself for a while; I have something to do." Before the big dog could even jump over, the little one had already sent him away. Da Dan's dog ears drooped, and he whimpered. Eventually, he obediently turned and went back. "You didn't let them in?" Seeing Da Dan return dejectedly, Ji Tingzhou, who was on a phone call with Lu Zhi, glanced over. Da Dan barked at his master and lay down beside him, looking a bit downcast. "Ji Nian's back?" On the other end of the call, Lu Zhi asked upon hearing the noise. "Yeah." When mentioning Ji Nian, Lu Zhi's voice softened considerably.@@@@ With the call cut off, Lu Zhi smiled indifferently: "Still such a bad temper..." He then stood up and called for someone: "Any news from my wife?" The servant replied with a bow: "The princess said she has something to attend to, so you can eat without her." Lu Zhi's face showed a brief moment of disappointment. "How about Ah Huai?" he asked as he headed toward his son's room. "Same as always..." the servant replied while shaking their head. Lu Jinghuai had been silent since waking up, not uttering a single word. Lu Zhi had initially thought there was something wrong with his throat, but after a check-up, the doctor said there was no issue. Lu Zhi had also brought in a psychologist, but the child ignored everyone, silently gazing out the window, his thoughts a mystery to all. Seeing this, Lu Zhi wished he could make Lide pay ten times over. Initially, they thought Lide had no connection to Lu Jinghuai, especially since throughout the whole ordeal, only Vengeance showed up. But thinking deeper, it seemed strange. Did Tuka not do any background checks before abducting children? Even if his brain wasn't functioning correctly, and he was desperate to have a child of his own, why aim specifically for S School where students came from wealthy and influential families? Each parent would have been a formidable opponent. In such a misguided situation, with Lu Zhi, Ji Tingzhou, the police, and multiple others involved, they searched for so long, even using the Sky Eye network, and found nothing. There must have been something supernatural going on behind this. When Lide struck, Lu Zhi instantly realized his involvement. "Ah Huai." Lu Zhi entered the room. Lu Jinghuai's wounds were still healing, his body wrapped in bandages, leaning against the headboard as he stared out the window, showing no response to the sound. Both Lu Zhi and Feia were extremely busy and rarely spent time by his side. Now, faced with such a sudden turn of events, they could neither blame his impulsive visit to China nor care about his situation at this time. Even though Lu Jinghuai didn't respond, Lu Zhi sat down beside him, informing him that his mother would return after some time. Just as Lu Zhi was prepared not to receive a response from his son, he suddenly noticed that Lu Jinghuai's gaze had shifted from the window and landed on him. Feeling glad, he looked closely, only to find that his son wasn't looking at him but rather at his— His emerald lapel pin. ... Without stopping, Ji Nian hurried into her laboratory, retrieving the blood sample she had collected from Chen Mo earlier and immediately conducting tests. The results would take a long time, so in the meantime, Ji Nian returned to the main building. "Dad, I'm back," she called out, seeing Ji Tingzhou sitting in his usual place. She approached him with the gift she had bought for him in the forest kingdom. But upon getting closer, she noticed— Ji Tingzhou's face looked unusually terrible.
