Chapter 94 The Election Wen Han, is that right? Come with me.
Jing Yu said, "Gu Cheng and his group have been getting very close to the An family lately."
Wen Han, lying on the carpet, smiled upon hearing this and said, "I guess they want to help their poor relatives."
After speaking, he turned his face away, looking somewhat melancholy. There was something Wen Han was still worried about: the An family definitely knew An Ning was a mutant. If they told Gu Cheng, would he suspect that Jing Yu had also inherited An Ning's traits?
However, Jing Feng is not without any problems, it's not a 100% certainty.
What if Gu Cheng guessed right? Wen Han frowned slightly, wondering why Jing Xu hadn't eliminated the An family completely back then.
Wanwan learned that Jingzhao had been locked up by Jingxu, so he specially brought her some new products from his coffee shop to visit her.
"Impressive!" Wanwan clapped his hands and teased, "I heard you single-handedly went to someone's lair to beat them up? That's truly courageous and your filial piety is touching."
"Hmph." Jing Zhao was already deflated. "I didn't even hit him a few times."
"Do you really want to cripple someone?" Wanwan whispered. "If someone needs to be taught a lesson, it's not your place to do it, you're just a kid."
"But Huanhuan's family wasn't like that before—"
“How can you compare them?” Wanwan interrupted her. “His mother’s family was involved in organized crime, and that was several years ago. It’s not the same. Now he’s trying to clear his name.”
"The election is coming up soon, so we must avoid causing trouble at this time." Wanwan waved to Wen Han as she came downstairs. "Wen Han, I brought some desserts, come and have a taste."
Seeing Jing Zhao still eating mousse, Wen Han asked in surprise, "Didn't you just eat a box of cookies?"
Wanwan asked, "It's not one of those giant cookies, is it?"
Wen Han gestured: "It's about half the size of a palm."
"Stop eating," Wanwan said. "Aren't you afraid your blood sugar will explode? Take a break."
With no food left, Jingzhao felt even more like crying. "Will they call the police? I don't care about anything else, I'm just afraid my dad will find out."
"It's alright," Wen Han comforted her. "If it were a stranger, there would be no need to worry, but now that they've become your relatives, it means the family conflict has been resolved on its own."
"I should head back now," Wen Han said after finishing a piece of rose mille-feuille. "See you next time."
Jing Zhao sighed dejectedly, "Waaah, another two weeks... How am I supposed to get through these two weeks at home?!"

In the evening, the Wen family turned on the news as usual, watching it while eating dinner.
The general election is about to begin, and among the five candidates, there are two A's, two B's, and one O'.
Wen Han knew without even thinking that in the end, it would still be those two A's competing for the spot.
Wen Qingke noticed that Wen Han was acting out of character, actually paying attention to this kind of news: "Hanhan, who do you think will win?"
"Anyway, I don't want number four." Wen Han frowned. How come such a radical A-list advocate has such a high approval rating?
“This guy is terrifying,” Wen Ruan said. “When interviewed by reporters, he actually said that the differentiation rate of Alphas should be increased, because that would be beneficial to society.”
Many people think this way, but for a candidate to say it outright is insane. Even if Alpha has a significant advantage in votes, it won't represent the majority. Regardless of the candidate's thoughts, they should outwardly support gender equality.
Wen Han felt that Gu Yuan and Gu Cheng must really like this candidate, since his appearance on stage would give her experiments hope.
While the political scene is in full swing, those below are naturally using their own methods. Gossip news is featuring business tycoons more than twice as often, while entertainment stars are collectively silenced, minimizing their presence for fear that past remarks will be unearthed and damage their careers.
Jingxu was naturally very busy, but no matter how busy he was, he didn't forget to keep an eye on Jingzhao and told her not to go out.
Wen Han secretly asked Jing Yu who his family was betting on.
“This person?” Wen Han frowned. “But he’s a Beta.”
Wen Han herself is a Beta, and there is no intention to discriminate, but many Betas blindly believe that Alphas are better. Otherwise, based on sheer numbers, Betas should be elected every year.
"Besides, he's completely silent now." The internet is full of people supporting other people.
Jing Yu smiled and said, "He will win."
——
"Wen Han, have you heard?" One afternoon after the monthly exam, Fang Songxia looked at the school gate. "I heard that the special recruits are selecting people from various high schools in Linjin today."
“It’s obvious they’ll come during our class,” Wen Han said. “You won’t even see them in person.”
According to those who have seen it, the specially recruited staff all wear special uniforms, very exquisite and beautiful dark blue suits.
"Sigh." Fang Songxia leaned against the window, his eyes still fixed on the outside. Wen Han knew he was tired of school and just wanted some time to rest.
This was an extremely difficult physics lesson. Wen Han could barely keep his eyes open, no matter how hard he tried.
No matter how much rock music the system played in its head, it didn't work. Finally, it used its trump card.
"Ruan Ruan," Gu Cheng said affectionately, "Do you know, my gaze has been lingering on you—"
"Ah!" Wen Han exclaimed angrily, "System, what are you trying to do!"
"Host, are you not sleepy now?"
"I'm not sleepy anymore."
The system said smugly, "Ta-da! Then let's continue listening to the lecture."
When will this kind of life end? Wen Han rested her chin on her hand, and a shadow suddenly appeared in her peripheral vision.
He raised his eyelids and saw his homeroom teacher standing by the window, looking at him with a serious expression.
Wen Han: "......"
We're doomed.
The homeroom teacher waved, signaling Wen Han to come out.
All eyes in the class turned to her, and Wen Han left dejectedly.
Before leaving, he glanced back and saw Jing Yu give him a reassuring smile.
Wen Han thought the homeroom teacher would scold him, but he didn't say anything, coughed, and walked forward. Wen Han knew that this meant he should follow.
What's going on? Could it be that Wen Qingke came to the school to see him?
Wen Han felt uneasy, but his homeroom teacher continued walking and eventually led him to the principal's office.
Upon seeing the principal's office, Wen Han's heart sank. She hadn't done anything at school recently, so why had she brought him to the principal's office?
Before the principal's office door was even opened, Wen Han felt a blast of warmth.
The homeroom teacher knocked on the door, and the person inside said, "Come in."
Wen Han was stunned when she saw the person inside the room.
Seeing him still standing there blankly at the door, the homeroom teacher frowned and said, "Come in quickly, what are you standing there for?"
Wen Han didn't say anything, but stood silently in the corner. The homeroom teacher closed the door.
The principal smiled and said, "Team Leader Li, this is Wen Han, a student from our school."
The man in the dark blue suit sitting there nodded, his face amiable: "Okay, Wen Han, is that right? Come with me."
Wen Han still couldn't react to what was happening. The homeroom teacher nudged her shoulder and said, "What are you standing there for? Quickly follow Team Leader Li."
"Oh." Wen Han almost tripped over her own feet.
*
"Don't be nervous." Team Leader Li smiled when he saw him sitting silently in the back. "It's just a check-up at the hospital."
Do you remember Dr. Pei from the Central Hospital?
Wen Han looked confused.
Team Leader Li smiled and said, "It seems you don't remember. He was the one who recommended you to us."
"Recommend me?"
"Yes, he said your constitution is very special."
Upon arriving at the hospital, Wen Han finally remembered when she saw Dr. Pei in person.
It was that doctor who recommended him to his school; he even got to work for him for free for a few hours back then.
Wen Han was led to a small room, where they asked him to sit down.
"You can smell pheromones, right?"
Wen Han nodded.
"To what extent can it go?"
To what extent, how should I put it?
Dr. Pei said, "This student can judge the condition of a person through pheromones."
Someone brought over a plastic box containing many test tubes. Wen Han recognized that it contained pheromone solution.
Dr. Pei opened one of the test tubes and handed it to him. Wen Han leaned over and smelled it: "It's a male Omega with green apple pheromones."
Dr. Pei asked, "Could you be more specific?"
To be more specific, Wen Han sniffed again: "He is probably malnourished. His pheromones are very weak compared to those of a healthy person."
"And," Wen Han frowned, "his pheromones are a bit mixed. Is he pregnant?"
Dr. Pei smiled.
"Try this one too." Wen Han obediently took it. This pheromone was definitely from an Alpha; it was provocative as soon as it was turned on.
"It smells like leather, so it should be a female Alpha," Wen Han said. "She's probably in a false heat, right? She might also be injured, because her pheromones seem to be pulsating."
As soon as Wen Han answered, a man in a blue suit was seen flipping through something, glancing up at Wen Han every now and then.
As the questioning progressed, Dr. Pei's questions became increasingly tricky, and Wen Han almost couldn't answer them.
He was sweating even in the dead of winter. Dr. Pei smiled and put the test tubes back into the box one by one: "Alright, my task is complete. You can continue asking questions."
Team Leader Li was questioning his colleague, the one who was flipping through the files. The two were talking very quietly, and Wen Han even doubted whether they were making any noise at all.
Wen Han was then taken for a full medical examination, and he even saw his previous medical records on the computer.
"Alright." After all that trouble, almost three hours had passed. Team Leader Li said, "I'll take you back to school."
Along the way, Wen Han wanted to ask what it meant to bring him here, but he didn't dare to.
But their clothes are really nice.
——
When he arrived at school, the afternoon classes were almost over. Team Leader Li dropped him off at the school gate and then left.
Wen Han touched the money in his pocket; he wasn't going to eat dinner at the cafeteria.
Wen Han went to a braised chicken and rice restaurant near the school and ordered a braised pork rib dish. She ate slowly before returning to the classroom.
"Wen Han, what did your homeroom teacher call you for?" Yang Lanjun asked. "You didn't go back to class this afternoon."
"I'm so envious," Fang Songxia said. "I don't want to go to class either—wait, why do you smell like braised chicken!"
Wen Han chuckled awkwardly: "It's braised pork ribs."
Fang Songxia's noise distracted everyone, and it wasn't until evening self-study started that Wen Han took a piece of draft paper and told Jing Yu what had happened that afternoon.
Jingyu wasn't very surprised when he saw it; he simply wrote a sentence.
"It will probably take about another month."
Wen Han still couldn't believe that she could actually participate in the special recruitment.
He stuffed the draft paper into his bag, his mind filled with mixed feelings. The system asked, "Host, isn't this a good thing?"
"Who knows if I'll be screened out?"
