Chapter 860: It’s Impossible That He Would Kill His Child!

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Luo Qian wanted to retaliate, but the aura Second Master Lu gave off was too imposing, it was to the extent that she did not dare to do so.

Second Master Lu continued to speak, saying, “Luo Ran was killed by the research lab your ex-husband belonged to when he brought her away. The Luo Ran you saw after that was a clone.”

“Ah… uwhhh…”

Luo Ran felt that a thread in her heart had snapped and she suddenly covered her mouth. Her eyes revealed intense despair and sorrow. Her tear ducts seemed to have malfunctioned as tears kept streaming down.

Second Master Lu looked at the young lady in front of him and said with a serious expression, “It’s not possible for a person to have a change in personality that quickly. In fact, you should have already felt the change.”

Luo Qian covered her mouth as she shook her head while shedding tears. She simply could not accept the fact that her daughter had long disappeared from the face of the earth.

Second Master Lu continued speaking, “Your ex-husband was someone from the National Laboratory of Country A. The work they do is different from that of other laboratories. They would bring in people they think are useful to their country and after making clones of these people, they will kill the original person.”

“Why do they kill the original person?!” Luo Qian felt as though there was a huge hole in her heart. Her mind was in extreme chaos and it was as though there was something drumming heavily on her head. “Since it’s only making a clone, why do they kill the original person?!”

“Only by killing the original can they ensure that there would not be any future trouble.”

“Wuuu… I don’t believe it! I don’t believe it! Boren is Ranran’s father. Why would he do that? As a father, it’s impossible that he would kill his own child!”

Second Master Lu shook his head. “When the researchers of the National Laboratory in Country A first entered the laboratory, they would have signed a life-and-death contract. Moreover, a toxin that would force them to obey would be implanted in their bodies. The moment they refuse orders, they will end up in a miserable state.”

At the mention of this, Second Master Lu paused for a second and said, “If my guess is right, the reason why your ex-husband was disfigured is not because of the chemicals in the laboratory. Instead, it was the toxin that controlled him acting up.”

“Therefore… Boren actually didn’t want to harm Ranran. It’s because he had no other option, right?”

Luo Qian seemed to be grasping onto the last life-saving straw she could find. If Second Master Lu were to say that wasn’t the case, she would definitely collapse completely.

Second Master Lu looked at her current state and sighed. He did not answer her question and merely said, “You should take a rest first. As to whether you inform your Mother and when to inform her, you can make the decision.”

He left the office immediately after saying that.

There was no one else in the office at this moment in time. Luo Qian simply squatted down and burst into tears with her head in her arms.

…

In the evening on the same day, someone tried getting close to the Luo Family’s mother and daughter again and they were captured by the people sent by Second Master Lu lying in ambush.

…

Zi Yi got up late the next day and it was Lu Jingye who woke her up while holding onto her phone. “Yiyi, your phone is ringing. Do you want to answer it?”

Zi Yi covered her head with the quilt and said, “Answer it for me. I want to sleep.”

Lu Jingye looked at his wife on the bed and the corner of his lips curved up. “It’s already nine o’clock in the morning. Even if you don’t wish to answer the phone, you still have to get up to eat breakfast. Don’t tell me you aren’t hungry?”

Zi Yi subconsciously touched her tummy. She was indeed feeling hungry. Only then did she pull the quilt away and stretched out her fair arms as she asked, “Who’s calling?”

“Xiangling.”

Zi Yi took the phone, answered the call, and called out, “Cousin.”

There was a rustling sound from Dou Xiangling’s side; she was clearly busy with something right now. Following that, a familiar, smiling voice was heard. “Yiyi, don’t tell me you haven’t gotten up yet?”

Zi Yi did not feel embarrassed at all and admitted to it.

Dou Xiangling released a soft chuckle. “Then do you remember that you were going to come to M.Uni?”

Zi Yi continued to respond affirmatively and said, “I’ll come over later.”

There was another wave of rustling sounds from Dou Xiangling’s end. “I’m currently sorting out the student’s paintings. Call me when you’re here… Maybe we can have dinner together.”

Zi Yi smiled at her words. “Ok, I’ll get up right now and aim to have dinner with you when I get there.”

Having said that, she hung up the phone while Dou Xiangling was still chuckling.

Lu Jingye, who was standing by the side asked, “Are you awake now?”

Zi Yi passed her phone to him and nodded her head. Only then did she sit upright.

Lu Jingye had already prepared her clothes for her.

After Zi Yi changed her clothes and washed up, both of them headed downstairs.

After breakfast, Zi Yi made a trip down to her laboratory to take a look. The research on the clone was currently in progress. She said to Lu Jingye who was standing next to her, “The molecular structure in the clone will be identified tonight. When the time comes, I’ll be able to know what kind of elements they used.”

“Mhmm.”

…

By the time Zi Yi arrived at M.Uni, it was already half past 10 in the morning.

When the students from the School of Fine Arts saw Zi Yi, there was no need to mention how excited they were.

Just then, there were even some students who came up to her and asked, “Goddess, will you be participating in the International Painting and Calligraphy Competition next month?”

Zi Yi had received Elder Bai’s phone call previously, but she wasn’t free at the time of the competition and rejected the invite. “Nope. I have other things on during that period of time.”

She wasn’t exactly interested in painting and in comparison, she preferred going into a laboratory.

When they heard Zi Yi’s answer, even though they were a little disappointed, they still understood.

Zi Yi continued heading to the office building. When she reached the stairs, someone called out to her from behind, “Zi Yi.”

She stopped and turned around.

She saw Qin Ze running over. When he reached where she was, he had his hands propped on his knees and was taking in deep breaths. Following that, he stood up straight and said as he looked her in the eye, “It’s not easy to find you.”

Zi Yi said sullenly, “Why are you looking for me? You’ve already lost the chance to be my assistant.”

Qin Ze used his phone to raise his glasses as he said cheekily, “It doesn’t matter if I can’t be your assistant. I only wanted to ask if you were the one who made the weapon from the previous time.”

“Yes it was me.”

Qin Ze’s eyes brightened and the corners of his lips curved up. “Great.”

Having said that, he took out a few sheets of paper from his pocket and opened it. “I drew out the structure of the weapon from memory. However, I feel that this place feels a little weird. Have a look at this…”

“…”

Zi Yi was simply stunned by the extent of how thick-skinned he could be.

Did she ever say anything about discussing weapons with him?

Zi Yi looked at him sullenly and refused to speak.

After Qin Ze asked the question, he looked at her with eyes that seemed to be begging for an answer. He acted as though if she did not answer, he would continue begging her.

There were teachers and students entering and leaving the building.

When they walked past them, they could not help but whisper among themselves. “Wow, which school is that handsome guy from? He’s so handsome! He’s holding onto a piece of paper. Don’t tell me he’s giving the goddess a love letter?”

Zi Yi: “…”

Qin Ze: “…”

Before rumors could spread, Zi Yi turned around and left. While walking, she spoke out a series of mathematical and physics formulas.

Qin Ze quickly took out his pen and made a note. While writing, he asked, “…Does this formula really work here? I feel that…”

The others who were currently gossiping about the both of them: “…”

So the handsome guy was asking the goddess a question. It was a rare moment for the goddess to have a topic of gossip about her but it ended just like that… What’s with the sudden feeling of disappointment?

“Which school is that handsome guy from? He’s so handsome and by all means there should be his photos on the school forum, right?”

“Perhaps he’s not from M.Uni.”

“Do you understand the formula they discussed?”

“What a joke. It’s such a difficult formula and those from the School of Mathematics and Physics may not even understand it, let alone us from the School of Fine Arts!”
