Chapter 99: It Must Be Her

Chapter 99: Chapter 99: It Must Be Her

Xiao Chen’s phone rang during the quiet, silent night, loud and cheerful.

Both of them inexplicably felt like laughing; it was his aunt who had changed the ringtone for him because she thought he was too somber usually, so she chose the song "Es Rappelt Im Karton."

Indeed, it was very cheerful, sung with gusto by a female vocalist.

He opened his eyes, his gaze sharp, his brows furrowed, and his clearly defined fingers picked up the phone, his sexy Adam’s apple moving up and down, "Hello?"

"Master Chen, we found out that this thing has leaked from the Underground Alliance’s laboratory," Xiao Dian’s voice was rough, filled with anger.

Xiao Chen stood up, walked to the window. Outside, the rain and wind were intense, yellow leaves littering the ground, rainwater hit the window blocking his view then gathered into droplets and slipped down.

His gaze was sharp, his cold eyebrows encased in a layer of frost, and his well-defined features emanated a chilling aura.

"I understand, keep yourselves safe over there."

"How can we, it’s chaos over here, and many groups are taking advantage of the chaos to come out. We can’t just sit and let them trample over us."

"Right, we have to take action when necessary. You’re doing well, tell the brothers to stay safe."

After hanging up, he lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and exhaled a thick cloud of smoke that enveloped him, as if only this could soothe his emotions.

"Is there trouble on Xiao Dian’s side?" Xiao Feng asked.

He was in much more danger in M country.

"I asked him to investigate something, some groups there are taking advantage of the chaos to step on us."

He looked out at the empty street covered with desolate fallen leaves. The wind and rain intensified, as if trying to wash away the storm.

A month later, the situation had begun to stabilize, and many patients had successfully been discharged, signaling that the virus could be conquered, and giving everyone ample confidence.

At the Lin Family’s home.

They hadn’t left the house for a month, but fortunately, the villa was large enough. When tired of being indoors, they would walk around the lawn outside. Liu Lanfang, in order not to be bored, had forcibly dug up a patch of land to grow vegetables. Lin Xiang found it quite quaint, watering the plants daily and successfully taking over Liu Lanfang’s job.

However, except for a message to assure her safety at the beginning, they had not received any further messages from Yun Yue.

Besides Liu Lanfang, all of them were worried about her.

That morning, Lin Xiang turned on the TV as usual; she watched the news daily, especially the frontline situations, and then the reports concerning businesses.

On television, she saw a figure that inexplicably looked like Yun Yue, though dressed in a heavy protective suit, but that wild and arrogant demeanor could only belong to her Yueyue.

"Charge, wave after wave!"

Lin Xuanze was sitting on the sofa conducting his daily operations when suddenly a hand tapped him from the side.

"Lin Xuanze, check the TV, is that person your sister?!"

"Mom, aren’t you thinking too much? How could she appear on TV?" Victory sounds came from Lin Xuanze’s phone as he laughed and quit the game, looking up casually.

Snap—

The phone dropped to the floor.

He shuddered.

"That’s definitely her! Wrapped up so tightly, wild and proud, with a mischievous air to boot, who else could it be? I’d recognize those eyes even if they turned to ash," he smirked, leaping off the sofa, eyes widened.

"Why would she be on TV? And in a protective suit? So she has been fighting on the frontlines treating people this whole time?!"

So when she said she was going to save the world, she meant it?

She’s only 17, right?

She hasn’t even graduated from high school, how could she do this?!

"Yeah, she’s pretty amazing!" Lin Xiang’s speech was slightly unsteady, her voice trembling. On TV, she was diagnosing a patient every minute, some even at a glance, and she was wearing a level-one protective suit.

The nurses behind her all listened to her; even Chairman Fei Canqing and Dean Cao Weiyu treated her with great respect; she was completely baffled.

She couldn’t understand how at just 17 years old, she could be so capable.

Her stepdaughter was a complete mystery.

No wonder Mom told her not to worry, she already knew what she was doing.

Earlier, she saw online that medical staff were sleeping on the ground and not going to the bathroom to save protective suits. They didn’t drink water all day, and their clothes under the protective suits were all wet.

A strange sourness rose in her heart, her eyes slightly moist, feeling both heartache and pride for her.

She’s still a half-grown kid, and she left quietly with a bag for a month. Although she saw her safe, she couldn’t help but worry; that was the front line, the most dangerous place.

She couldn’t help but pick up her phone to send her a message but then put the phone back on the table, thinking it better not to disturb her, to let her focus on treating people.

Lin Xuanze was different, running upstairs with his mobile phone to send messages to the seventh class.

[Breaking news!]

Zhang Ziyue: [Apart from news about Yun Yue, nothing else is breaking news.]

Wang Ning: [Another day of missing the boss.]

In the month the boss was away, they really missed her.

They missed her scolding them, looking down on them, tutoring them, and they really wanted her to lead them in gaming!

People from the seventh class following Lin Xuanze have collectively dropped a large rank!

It wasn’t that they weren’t good; it felt like they just lacked a bit of luck every time, suffering defeats when they seemed sure to win. They couldn’t figure out what the problem was.

[I don’t know when the boss will come back, sigh.]Yang Xing sent an emoticon.

Lin Xuanze:[...]

[What I mean to say is that it’s about Yun Yue, she’s in the hospital!]

[???]

[!!!]

A row of question marks came through, the phone screen refreshing non-stop. He had just finished a game, the phone was burning hot, and their bombardment made it crash completely.

"Fuck! What a piece of junk phone! And it cost so much!" he cursed as he threw the phone on the bed and then turned on the computer.

In two minutes, the seventh class group chat exploded, seeing that he hadn’t replied making everyone extremely anxious. Some even called him, but they got the ’phone is turned off’ message.

Lin Xuanze logged into WeChat; there were 99+ messages, all @mentioning him, he could feel their anger and urgency through the screen.

He knew he was screwed.

He’d only said half of it and everyone must have misunderstood, feeling like they were going to tear him apart.

Yang Xing initiated a group call, and he joined.

"No, where the hell did you go just now! Damn it, trying to scare us to death?! Why is the boss in the hospital, is it what we think, is it serious? Can it still be treated?"

Yang Xing’s irate voice came through; he instinctively covered his ears, knowing they’d misinterpreted.

"Don’t rush, don’t rush. The success rate is still pretty high, the boss’s physical condition is so good, she should be able to get better," Wang Ning spoke up before shouting loudly, "You damn say it quick! Want to be beaten up, huh?"

"..."

This group from the seventh class was really dangerous.

"I haven’t finished saying it just now, my phone crashed, now I’m using the computer, what’s the rush for." He sat with his legs crossed, cheekily holding back information just to tease them, letting them stew in their anxiety.
