Chapter 123 I Will Never Like That Kind of Person
I don’t know how Si Xu came to the conclusion that he liked Qin Huai. Chen Yao felt a sense of being wronged.
The girl put down her chopsticks and stared at Si Xu seriously: "Seventh Brother, you can't wrongly accuse me."
Si Xu said innocently: "You don't like Qin Huai, why do you always ask me if Qin Huai is pretty, and always ask me to show you Qin Huai's photos."
"Uh." Chen Yao retorted, "Everyone loves beauty. I'm just curious. How does that become liking?"
"Why are you curious about Qin Huai?" Si Xu said calmly, "Gu Yunqing once said that the first step to developing a liking for someone is to be curious about them."
Why do you remember the words of that idiot Gu Yunqing so clearly? Shen Yao rolled her eyes: "I told you, he is handsome. I am curious about how handsome he is to make the girls in the laboratory fall in love with him with his beauty."
"Huh?" Jiang Ran, as if she had heard some incredible news, thought of Qin Huai's escape from the base and asked quietly, "Qin Huai was able to escape the base successfully. Could it be that the girl's help?"
It’s not a secret, Shen Yao nodded: “I hadn’t joined the laboratory at that time, and I heard that it was like this - the specific situation is known to Seventh Brother and Gu Yunqing, but I am not very clear.”
Jiang Ran turned to look at Si Xu.
The little girl was indeed very interested in this kind of gossip. Si Xu patiently told her what he knew: "Qin Huai has been in charge of the laboratory for several generations, all of whom were staff members appointed by the Shen family themselves. I remember that after the second-to-last person had his ear bitten off by him, the laboratory installed a micro-bomb in his chest to prevent him from rebelling. After that, Qin Huai became much more well-behaved."
"Micro-bomb?" Jiang Ran shuddered for no apparent reason. "Aren't you worried about accidentally killing someone?"
"What's there to worry about? If he dies, he dies. Those guys who use living people for experiments, do you still expect them to have sympathy for a test subject?" Chen Yao said, "Not to mention Qin Huai, even Seventh Brother, at that time, wasn't he..."
Jiang Ran frowned upon hearing this and uttered a single sound: "Hmm?" Also? Also what? Also had a miniature bomb set in his chest by those people?
Those guys...
The girl's face darkened, and there was a hint of hostility in her eyes, which made Shen Yao, who was originally talking about the old story, shut up subconsciously.
For some reason, facing her sister's anger, she felt guilty for a moment - perhaps it was because of her carelessness, or perhaps it was because the Shen family was inseparable from those experiments back then.
Chen Yao shut up and looked at Si Xu with a look of help, wanting him to continue the story to divert Jiang Ran's attention.
The man who didn't care much about what happened that year received the assistant's gaze, thought for a moment, and decided to give her a way out.
He propped his face up with one hand and asked Jiang Ran, "Do you still want to hear the story?"
Suppressing the depression in his chest, Jiang Ran hummed, his eyes still cold.
Si Xu continued with the story he knew.
"Qin Huai was very good. The Shen family arranged for him to be the last person in charge. He was someone Shen Lang valued very much at the time. The assistant to that person in charge was his daughter. It was said that she had just graduated from university and was studying with her father."
"Ah, the heroine of the story? Is she pretty?"
“It’s just so-so.”
Having no impression of the heroine's appearance, Si Xu simply mentioned it briefly.
Chen Yao curled her lips, leaned closer to Pei Xiao who was eating quietly, and whispered, "I heard that girl was very beautiful, and a lot of people in the laboratory were pursuing her at that time."
"Really?" Jiang Ran also heard it. "Then this girl shouldn't be lacking in love. How could she be deceived by Qin Huai?"
"It's not a lie." Si Xu said calmly, with a hint of sarcasm, "Qin Huai and that girl were really together at that time."
"Are you really together?" Chen Yao laughed, her tone full of suspicion. "Seventh Brother, you don't even know what it means to like or dislike someone, so how can you be sure that Qin Huai likes that girl?"
"Gu Yunqing said so." Without any panic caused by being questioned, Si Xu glared at Chen Yao coldly and said, "Also, I know what liking someone means."
He specifically emphasized the latter. Chen Yao tactfully didn't dwell on it and only focused on the first question: "How did Gu Yunqing know?"
"You should ask Gu Yunqing this question."
Shen Yao was choked speechless - she was also stupid, why would she ask Si Xu such an idiotic question.
"And then what?" Just assume they were truly in love. What then? Jiang Ran tried to guess, "Qin Huai used that girl to remove the bomb from his chest, and then ran away?"
"Yeah." It's such a simple story.
"Hey, where's the girl now?"
A man like Qin Huai, who looks weird but doesn't seem to have any evil intentions at all, can easily lead a little girl astray.
It’s just a pity for the girl who likes him. Although she is being used, the Shen family will definitely not let her go easily.
Based on the Shen family's methods of punishing people, they might just exile her outside the base and leave her to fend for herself...
"Dead."
The word "cold" interrupted all of Jiang Ran's assumptions.
The girl was a little surprised: "Dead?"
Isn’t it said that the girl’s father is Shen Lang’s right-hand man?
"The Shen family is so ruthless?"
"It's not the Shen family." Si Xu said, "It's the Qin Huai family."
Jiang Ran: "Ah?"
Qin Huai? Did that man, after achieving his goal, kill that girl without hesitation?
"Why did he kill that girl?" Jiang Ran was puzzled. "Even if he left her alone, she wouldn't have had a good outcome. Why would he..."
"have no idea."
At the end of the story known to outsiders, when the staff arrived at the scene, the girl was stabbed in the chest and her breathing was weak, but she was not dead, and Qin Huai was nowhere to be found.
The disaster had just happened and the base's medical facilities were incomplete. After a night of rescue, the patient still could not be saved.
"I think that guy just wants to silence the witness." Shen Yao snorted, full of contempt, "He's worried that the girl will reveal her whereabouts, or..."
Shen Yao was still guessing. Amidst her indignant voice, Jiang Ran gently held her hand and said earnestly, "Sister Shen Yao, you must not like Qin Huai. Although that guy is indeed very good-looking, he is too bad. Girls who like him will definitely be unlucky."
"Huh?" The girl's tone was too serious. Shen Yao was stunned for a moment. Coming back to her senses, she held her forehead with her hand. "Little cousin, believe me, I definitely wouldn't like that kind of guy. Although I look at the face, I am also a face-chaser with basic values."
Jiang Ran breathed a sigh of relief and changed the subject: "But Sister Shen Yao, Qin Huai is really handsome. He is probably the most handsome man I have ever seen in my life. If you met him, maybe you wouldn't be as decisive as you are now, hey."
As soon as she said this, the faces of the two people at the table darkened at the same time.
Si Xu licked his back teeth and said nothing.
Shen Yao was a little crazy: "Little cousin, can we end this topic?!"
