Chapter 48 Time Will Tell



Inside a laboratory in the mountains, a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses stares intently at a blood sample.

"This drug can actually suppress mutated genes, it's amazing."

Wang Ming wished he could kill Qin Su. Now that he had lost the power he was so proud of, how could he remain king?

"Dr. Li, Qin Su is naturally sensitive to this kind of thing. Why don't we bring her over and have her do things for you?"

Standing to the side, Qin Xiaoru quickly spoke up. She had been brought here since she became pregnant.

She also became the subject of Li Boqing's research!

Li Boqing would examine her body every day, and she keenly sensed that when Li Boqing looked at her, it was no different from when he looked at those monsters.

Moreover, she now knows that Wang Ming is a mutant, and the baby in her belly may also be a freak.

She was horrified at the thought of giving birth to a freak.

But Li Boqing stared at her stomach, and she had no way of aborting the child.

Everything she's in today is Qin Su's fault. If Qin Su had let them stay at the resort and given them supplies, she would still be that pampered young lady, instead of ending up in such a miserable state.

If she's not having a good time, Qin Su shouldn't expect to either.

Li Boqing glanced at her disdainfully. How dare an experimental subject speak?

The reason he didn't avoid talking to Qin Xiaoru was because she was an experimental subject, and her final fate could only be death. In his eyes, she was no different from those animals.

However, what this woman said wasn't entirely unreasonable.

"Qin Su is your sister, you must know her very well. Think of a way to lure Qin Su out."

Such an outstanding person, if he cannot use him, would be ruined.

Li Boqing's crazed gaze sent chills down Qin Xiaoru's spine.

"Okay, okay, I'll figure out a way to lure her out right away."

Qin Xiaoru originally wanted to negotiate with Li Boqing, but fear prevented her from speaking again.

"Wang Ming, you cooperate with her to bring Qin Su back."

Li Boqing thought for a moment, then injected Wang Ming with a vial of medicine. Instantly, all the lost power returned.

"Thank you, Dr. Li. Don't worry, I will definitely bring that vile woman back."

He had to make that woman pay the price before bringing her here!

Seeing the coldness in his eyes, Li Boqing said nothing.

Qin Xiaoru was secretly delighted. It is said that powerful people will hate other powerful people. Does Li Boqing hate Qin Su?

Since that's the case, she can make that bitch pay some price on the way back with Qin Su.

...

Qin Su didn't fall asleep until late at night, and when she woke up it was already noon.

Looking at the glaring stares outside, I felt a little worried about the crops I had planted.

After breakfast, she went to the fields to check on the situation.

Although the crops were a bit wilted due to the plastic film, they were still doing alright.

"Miss, don't worry. We will report any problems with these crops immediately."

This is the grain for the future, so there's no room for carelessness. They send people to guard it every day.

"good."

Qin Su was relieved. Although there were many supplies in the space, it would be easy for her to be discovered if she took them out.

Although the people at the resort were very nice, who knew what might happen next? She still didn't dare to take the risk.

Being able to grow your own food is naturally the best.

"It's a pity to waste this grass. If there were some animals, it wouldn't be a waste."

Xu Jingzhi carried the grass she had pulled from the field, her face full of regret.

In the apocalypse, she felt that any supplies should be put to use, and she felt heartbroken to see these grasses about to be thrown away.

Qin Su was stunned for a moment. Before the rainstorm, she was afraid that the animals would run around and make the house dirty, so she moved them all into her space.

Now that it's stopped raining outside, we can continue keeping the animals.

Looks like I'll have to go out again this afternoon!

Huo Sijin said yesterday that the bridge would be open to traffic this afternoon. I wonder if it's finished yet?

After leaving the field, Qin Su headed outside.

Now, the resort is surrounded by a ten-meter-long sinkhole, so there's no fear that ordinary people will come in. When Qin Su went out, Xu Jingzhi didn't stop her anymore.

However, she was still worried and followed Qin Su towards the bridge.

From afar, one could see that the bridge was already completed. At that moment, Li Tang and the others, shirtless, were carrying a door panel towards the other side of the bridge.

This means they need to build a protective gate on the outside of the bridge so that people outside can't use it!

"My little apprentice, you've come."

"How is it? Are you satisfied with the bridge your teacher built?"

Qin Su nodded; the bridge was much better than she had expected.

"Master, you are indeed very intelligent. Nothing is too difficult for you. You can even do something as difficult as building a bridge. You are really amazing."

Qin Su's eyes were full of inquiry: Just who was Huo Sijin?

No matter how skilled a special forces soldier is, they could not possibly create high-tech weapons, let alone know so much about architecture.

What's more, he also stockpiled so many firearms!

"Master, is this a gift from birth, or was it all planned out in advance?"

Suddenly, a wave of panic washed over her.

She was able to be reborn, and Huo Sijin might also have been reborn!

Before she knew it, Huo Sijin had walked up to her. His tall figure blocked the sunlight, making her feel as if she were in a small, cramped space.

The masculine aura was overwhelming, carrying a hint of aggression.

"Then, my little disciple, what plans do you think your master might have?"

Does this mean he's admitting it?

How did she know what his plans were, and what he really wanted to do?

My heart was pounding uncontrollably, and my hand instinctively reached for the ring.

I wonder if I can kill him with the weapon he gave me?

"You are my little apprentice. The only thing I want to do right now is to protect you and the things you care about."

His voice came on the wind, faintly seeping into my ears.

Qin Su's eyes widened, and his deep pupils were filled with sincerity.

"Time will tell. One day, my little apprentice will believe me, won't he?"

He smiled, seemingly unconcerned by her suspicions. He even gently reached out to smooth her wind-blown hair.

Are you going out this afternoon?

Qin Su came to her senses, her clear eyes filled with undisguised doubt, but she did not ask any further questions.

Everyone has their own secrets. Huo Sijin may have secrets, but so far, he has not done anything to harm her.

Moreover, his handing over those weapons to her was a form of cooperation, so she didn't need to pursue it relentlessly.

"Um."

She thought about it and then apologized.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have doubted you."

Huo Sijin smiled and kicked away the small stones on the road to make sure Qin Su could walk on a smooth surface.

“Miss is right, there’s no need to apologize. I hope that you will continue to be vigilant in the future. No matter who or what you encounter, do not trust them easily, even if they are people or things that you trust very much.”
