Chapter 172: Chapter 172 The Needle at the Bottom of a Man’s Heart_1

Xiaohua’s face turned red. "Hey, don’t talk nonsense; it’s not about getting a wife."

"Then what is it for?"

"I don’t know either, why don’t you go ask?"

Ask? So she asked.

Chu Zizhou didn’t keep it a secret, "My mom and my sister are coming to see me in a few days. I’m tidying this place up so they can stay here."

After Song Yunuan gave an "oh," she said to Chu Zizhou, "Even if you make this place dazzle, your mom and your older sister will still think you’ve had a hard time."

Chu Zizhou: ...

Sometimes I really don’t like hearing you talk.

"It’s the truth, but could you not dampen the enthusiasm? Cleaning up is surely better than not, right? Okay, okay, look, I didn’t dare use your help, did I? Go on with your business."

Song Yunuan was shooed away.

Gu Huai’an watched her with a smile.

Song Yunuan said, "Let’s go find a place, and we can study how to construct a house out of air."

Seeing her eagerness, Gu Huai’an followed along.

Not far away, Chu Zizhou curled his lips.

Seeing Gu Huai’an following behind the young girl, he was always one to enjoy being the center of attention.

Yet now, he had fallen to this level.

If people from the courtyard saw this, who knows if their eyeballs would fall to the ground.

The pair didn’t go far and stopped in front of a dilapidated mud wall.

This was a ruin.

It was to the left of the headquarters, previously a pigsty, which was taken down in the summer due to the unbearable stench.

The wall had not been completely demolished at the time because there were solid large rocks underneath; this was all more than a decade ago.

Song Yunuan, with a stern little face, earnestly said, "I’m not joking with you, maybe it’s a pipe dream, but which scientific research didn’t start with pipe dreams to get where it is today?"

Her point made sense, and Gu Huai’an nodded. His dark eyes gazed seriously at the suddenly solemn young girl, and he grew especially earnest.

So, he earnestly said, "Tell me your initial intent, and perhaps it will help me."

Song Yunuan clenched her small hands. Her initial intent? Of course, it was the force that erupted when the energy inside her body gathered together.

She said, "I’m very strong, did you know that?"

Gu Huai’an paused for a moment then said, "I’ve heard Uncle Ho mention it."

The strength was real; she’d even crushed his fountain pen.

However, given Gu Huai’an’s level and stature, he naturally knew many things that the average person did not.

With a population of hundreds of millions, it’s impossible that all are ordinary folks.

The country also pays attention to people with special talents.

There are specialized departments managing them.

He had seen a few people with extraordinary gifts as well.

Some have exceptional memory.

Some can communicate with animals.

Some can hit targets blindfolded.

And some have brains comparable to computers.

Like him.

As for those with strength, those who can be called innately powerful, there were indeed many of them.

Nothing particularly astonishing.

But Gu Huai’an didn’t want to crush Song Yunuan’s enthusiasm; it was good for the young girl to have great strength, at least she could protect herself.

He earnestly nodded his head, "He said you’re very strong, capable of flattening a fountain pen."

Song Yunuan hehe smiled, then suddenly extended her hand and threw a palm strike at Gu Huai’an standing across from her.

Having a unique identity, Gu Huai’an had been trained from a young age with special skills, including incredibly fast reactions.

When Song Yunuan’s surprise attack came, with a swift movement, he was already five meters away from her.

Immediately after, the wall behind Gu Huai’an crashed to the ground.

Song Yunuan blinked.

Gu Huai’an turned his head back, his face turning somber.

He strode over and observed the crumbled yellow earth in a specific area, grinding it under his foot, then turned to look at Song Yunuan.

Song Yunuan thought he would praise her.

But unexpectedly, he asked with a dark expression, "Are you using me for a demonstration?"

Song Yunuan: "Mhm, yes."

Gu Huai’an frowned, "If I hadn’t dodged, would you have still hit me?"

"I had good control over my strength. I only used full force because I saw you dodge. How about that?" Song Yunuan asked with a bright smile.

Gu Huai’an’s face was as still as water: "Not good at all!"

After the fact, Song Yunuan belatedly realized that Gu Huai’an seemed to be angry?

Wow, that was rare.

Wasn’t he supposed to maintain his stoic CEO persona, never showing his emotions?

Gu Huai’an: "What if you hadn’t controlled your strength properly, and what if I hadn’t dodged?"

Song Yunuan: ...

She was already able to control her strength at will; such a scenario wouldn’t occur.

Besides, she only struck the wall after seeing Gu Huai’an dodge.

It was because she moved so quickly that she didn’t see it clearly in the moment,

but she did want to show Gu Huai’an that energy and physical strength should no longer be seen as the same concept.

At least, that’s how it was for her.

"I really have to explain this to you. When I made a move towards you..."

Song Yunuan paused, biting her lip, feeling a bit too embarrassed to speak. What should she do?

[Brother, actually, the first step of my experiment was to take the opportunity to feel your pectoral muscles, and the second step was to demonstrate the tangible gaseous energy, like the burst of power from my palm...]

Gu Huai’an gave a half-smile and turned to leave.

Song Yunuan: ...

Men’s hearts are like needles at the bottom of the sea.

"I didn’t really want to hit you. If I truly intended to, not to brag, but you wouldn’t have been able to dodge it at all."

At this moment, Chu Zizhou and a few others looked over in surprise.

Song Yunuan felt too embarrassed to keep calling out.

Gu Huai’an did slow down a bit, though.

Then Song Yunuan called out:

[Brother, you weren’t scared, were you?]

[Don’t walk so fast, wait for me.]

[Right, seeing my unusual strength, shouldn’t you be taking me to the lab for a biopsy study?]

Gu Huai’an: ...

Biopsy study, what the heck is that.

But he had an epiphany just now; he needed to rush to the flight test base. So, he mounted his white horse and quickly left the headquarters.

This time he heard Song Yunuan’s shout: "You’re not really angry, are you?"

Everyone turned to look at Song Yunuan standing at the entrance of the headquarters.

Song Yunuan spread her hands in innocent resignation.

[Brother Huai’an, you’re running so fast. I can’t very well chase you outright.]

Gu Huai’an deliberately slowed down.

[Brother, why are you acting like a petulant wife?]

Gu Huai’an: ...

He shouldn’t have stopped.

So, this time, he left without looking back.

Just then, Chu Zizhou came running over, clearly enjoying the drama: "What happened, did you have a fight?"

Song Yunuan chuckled and said, "Battalion commander, you should keep working hard and strive to leave Erdao River sooner, or else..."

Chu Zizhou turned and left.

He certainly wasn’t going to fall for that and ask her ’or else what.’

The little girl was quite mischievous.

But, managing to upset Gu Huai’an, she really did have some skill.

Chu Zizhou was somewhat surprised; Gu Huai’an was not the kind to get upset so easily.

Based on his understanding of him, it must have been some sort of epiphany, and he was also taking the opportunity to teach Song Yunuan a lesson.

That girl, sometimes, was truly daring beyond belief.

By this time, Gu Huai’an, on his horse, had already left Erdao River Village. A few moments later, his brows relaxed, and he let out a chuckle.

The little girl, what on earth is she thinking every day!
