Okay, okay.

Having his good intentions misunderstood, Xu Shi sighed helplessly and walked out of the prison gate.

Su Lin was already waiting there. Jiang Chengcheng held her hand, feeling even more excited than before.

"You told her?"

Seeing the two suddenly become intimate, Xu Shi guessed what was going on.

"Um."

Su Lin nodded.

Ever since Xu Shi mentioned it that day, she has been investigating along this line of thought.

The result was exactly as the two had predicted—the two were indeed old acquaintances, once close friends in the same orphanage.

It could be said that the two of them supported each other through those times... It's just a pity that they didn't have names back then, only prisoner-like numbers.

After they were adopted one after another, they lost contact with each other.

This undoubtedly makes the investigation somewhat difficult, which is why Su Lin hasn't shown up much these days.

Fortunately, it had a good ending, and her reunion with the other person made her quite happy.

Jiang Chengcheng was even more excited. Having just experienced a new life, she immediately learned of this. She didn't know how to describe her feelings.

Not to mention that the two of them shared the same stance, which made her feel so happy she was about to faint.

Sitting in the car, Jiang Chengcheng carefully leaned on Xu Shi's shoulder, clutching his clothes tightly, as if afraid that this beautiful moment was just a dream.

"Take a good rest for a while; all the unpleasantness of the past is in the past."

Xu Shi comforted her, saying, "By the way, Su Lin, remember to contact a psychologist for her."

Although she has resolved her inner conflict, her mental illness cannot be ignored. Given her current condition, Xu Shi is still somewhat uneasy about having her immediately begin research on the "Over-Limit Project".

Not to mention the issue of awakening her superpowers—this process often requires stimulating the brain, and if the state is unstable, it can easily lead to disaster.

"Yes, I understand."

Su Lin responded, glancing at the couple's intimate gesture in the rearview mirror, and subconsciously pursed her lips.

Logically, this should be a good thing... but why does it always feel like something's not quite right?

While she was thinking, a message came through her communication device.

She glanced at it casually, and her expression became even stranger.

"Young Master, something has happened to Young Master He of 'Shark Tooth'."

Um?
