Chapter 367 Neglecting the Older Man, Curbing His Arrogance

China.

Nanzhou.

After the plane landed, Pei Jinwu immediately drove to Base 1.

Upon arrival at the base.

The entrance was packed with people, all wearing protective suits and gas masks.

"ghost."

Upon seeing that their leader was in trouble, the base manager immediately ran over and briefly explained the situation.

"The experiment was conducted according to standard procedures, but something went wrong at some point, leading to a toxic gas leak..."

"Alright." Pei Jinwu asked while putting on her protective suit, "Are all the researchers inside?"

"That's right."

The manager nodded and respectfully replied, "This gas is extremely hazardous; they cannot leave until the problem is resolved."

More importantly.

This research is a key project of the underground city, and tens of billions have been invested so far.

Leaving now would mean all my previous efforts would be wasted.

so.

The researchers were reluctant to leave.

Several of them were already on the verge of collapse.

"Nonsense."

Pei Jinwu glared at the manager and growled coldly, "Is life more important or human life?"

Give me the mask!

"Boss, you want to go in?" The manager's eyes widened in surprise, and he took two steps back, shaking his head and saying, "It's full of poisonous gas inside. It will be very dangerous for you to go in."

"So you're just going to ignore them for what they are?" Pei Jinwu stood there, her eyes icy cold, her tone even more resolute: "Bring them here."

"..."

The manager pursed his lips, refusing to move.

"Give it to her."

Lou Ying took the mask and handed it to Pei Jinwu, instructing, "Get me one too, I'll go in with her."

"You wait here."

Pei Jinwu stopped Lou Ying, put on his mask, and said seriously, "I can't hide the fact that I came to Nanzhou. Those guys in the underground city definitely know."

"If you stay here, it will be easier to communicate if anything comes up."

"Little Mist Girl—"

Lou Ying naturally knew how dangerous the base was and was afraid that something might happen to her if she went in.

How am I going to explain this to her older brother and sister, and to that old man, Shang Shiyan?!

"fine."

Pei Jinwu replied casually and strode towards the base gate.

"Boss!"

The others tried to chase after them, but Lou Ying scolded them back.

"Don't go and cause trouble for the ghost." Lou Ying said in a hoarse voice, her face ashen. "She'll be fine."

For my older brother and sister.

For the sake of the Shang Dynasty inkstone.

She wouldn't allow herself to have any surprises.

——

Within the base.

Smoke filled the air, and even with a gas mask on, a faint, pungent odor could still be detected.

"Boss, why did you come in personally?"

Several doctoral researchers were astonished when they saw Pei Jinwu.

Her life is worth far more than the base.

Why don't they pull me along?

"Tell me what happened." Pei Jinwu didn't explain and walked straight to the laboratory.

"yes."

The doctors all knew Ghost's personality and knew that only she could accomplish this difficult task.

They all obediently followed along, introducing the topic in an orderly manner.

"Um."

Pei Jinwu pushed open the laboratory door, where several researchers were still searching for the cause.

Where are the sick people?

"The infirmary." Then they immediately led the person to another place.

Pei Jinwu examined it.

It was confirmed to be poisoning; the patient had a persistent high fever and difficulty breathing.

It shows a trend of gradually worsening.

"We can't delay any longer. Send them out for treatment," Pei Jinwu instructed.

"Boss, we don't..."

The researchers, lying in their hospital beds, shook their heads, saying, "We're so sorry for messing up the experiment like this."

so.

They must stay and find out why.

"Boss, we just need to rest for a bit."

"Send it out."

Pei Jinwu was too lazy to waste words with them, so he raised his hand and the group was immediately carried out on stretchers.

Then.

Pei Jinwu dialed Lou Ying's number and asked her to send a doctor from the main base.

"I will tell them about the treatment methods."

Everything is arranged.

Pei Jinwu then returned to the laboratory.

"Everyone, go and rest. Come back tomorrow morning to relieve me." Pei Jinwu sat at the control panel, flipping through experimental data: "Can't you understand me?"

"yes."

The researchers then stood up and left the lab.

In an instant.

In the vast laboratory, only Pei Jinwu remained.

Good.

I was feeling a bit confused, so I decided to do something to calm myself down.

As for the inkstones from the Shang Dynasty...

Old man.

Isn't he pretty arrogant and domineering?

Give him the cold shoulder for a while, and put an end to his arrogance.

After figuring it out.

Pei Jinwu began working on the experimental questions, and as the research deepened, time unknowingly slipped into the late night.

——

Above the clouds.

Shang Shiyan sat in the living room.

I haven't changed my clothes, tidied my hair, or eaten...

He sat silently on the sofa, his eyes fixed on the door.

It's three o'clock.

Does Wuwu have trouble sleeping and only fall asleep when he's around?

Why aren't you going home?

Not above the clouds, nor anywhere else, so where could it go?

Suddenly.

Shang Shiyan, who had been expressionless, suddenly stood up.

Building shadow.

That's right.

Wuwu left with Louying.

Could she have been run off with another man?

Lou Ying has probably said a lot of bad things about herself to Wu Wu.

Will Wuwu believe it?

Will I really not want him anymore?

Definitely.

Otherwise, he wouldn't not even go home; there's Wang Ma cooking here.

no.

He couldn't just sit and wait to die; he had to find Wuwu immediately.

Thinking about this...

Shang Shiyan immediately stood up and turned on his computer to check Lou Ying's flight information.

He actually went back to Nanzhou?

While checking Pei Jinwu's information, I discovered that the two of them left at the same time.

Nanzhou?

The main base of the underground city is located in the Southern Continent.

After you go back, will you come back?

You really don't want him anymore?

Fog...

Shang Shiyan sat in the chair, his fingers trembling uncontrollably as he typed on the keyboard, his eyes turning bloodshot.

"The wind has stopped."

Shang Shiyan immediately dialed a number, his voice urgent: "Get ready, we're going to Nanzhou."

"Nanzhou?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Zhi felt a chill run down his spine and asked again in disbelief, "Master, you're not mistaken, are you? Are you sure we're going to Nanzhou now?"

Southern Continent is the territory of the underground city, and the people of the S Alliance rarely set foot there.

The master, without any preparation or protection, suddenly ran off to the Southern Continent...

If the people in the dungeon find out, wouldn't that be terrible?

"Go directly to the airport."

While on the phone, Shang Shiyan went back to his bedroom, grabbed Pei Jinwu's schoolbag, and filled it with a lot of her favorite snacks: "The plane must take off in two hours."

After giving the instructions.

Shang Shiyan hung up the phone, took his car keys, and left.

soon.

The black sports car sped along the highway, making a screeching sound.

"..."

Feng Xing and Feng Zhi on the other end of the phone were still confused.

"Try to contact Miss Pei."

Feng Xing dared not delay and strode out, whispering, "I reckon the people in the underground city don't know about their relationship yet."

Southern Continent is so vast, filled with people from underground cities. What if we get caught...?

The consequences would be unimaginable.

Is Master chasing after his wife or courting death?!

good evening.
