Gu Xiao hugged the person in front of him tightly, completely ignoring the unpleasant smell emanating from him.
His face was full of excitement as he said, "Boss, you are finally back?"
Song Yuan frowned and endured the bear hug from his friend and subordinate. When Gu Xiao tried to touch him all over to check if he was injured, Song Yuan pressed Gu Xiao's head with one finger and pushed him away.
"I'm going to take a shower..." Song Yuan said lightly.
Only then did Gu Xiao smell the pungent odor. He immediately loosened his arms and jumped away.
Then he pinched his nose and nodded. He couldn't stand the smell himself, and he didn't know how Song Yuan, who always had a mysophobia, could endure it?
Although he was curious about what had happened to the boss during this period, he knew even more that if he asked questions now and made the boss unhappy, he would never be able to live happily for the rest of his life.
Seeing Gu Xiao's action, Song Yuan's face suddenly darkened.
Thinking that he would become such a culprit, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. Perhaps Lu Chi did not expect that this time he did not kill him, but instead helped him to stimulate his supernatural powers.
After entering the base, he received information that Lu Chi was now unconscious and Lu Yisheng was out on a mission.
If he doesn't "repay" Lu Chi properly now, wouldn't he be sorry for everything Lu Chi has done for him?
He walked into the room, took off his stinking, dirty clothes, and revealed his perfectly muscular body. He glanced sideways at the scratched arm, which was now completely free of any marks. A cold-blooded smile formed at the corner of his mouth.
Then, he smelled the smell coming from his body, frowned, and walked into the water. In just a short while, Song Yuan washed off all the dirt and mud on his body, and then walked out wearing a white shirt.
Gu Xiao, who was waiting outside, saw Song Yuan's stern face and noble temperament, and suddenly felt that the boss who was covered in dirt just now was more pleasing to the eye.
"Hey, Boss, what took you so long to come back? You made us brothers so anxious, but we couldn't tell the people at the base, so we had to send people to look for you secretly! Oh, right, that Lu Chi has been unconscious, didn't you? Blah blah..."
Gu Xiao poured out his grievances to Song Yuan until his mouth was dry. He picked up the water that was originally poured for Song Yuan on the table, drank it in one gulp, and then stopped talking.
"Lu Chi certainly didn't expect that I would activate my thunder ability! Don't worry, I will definitely make him spit out what he took from me!" He will definitely make Lu Chi pay back a hundredfold for the suffering he has endured.
Song Yuan smiled coldly.
"Go tell the current person in charge of Yuanshan Base that we are now in charge of Yuanshan. Also, send Lu Chi to the research institute in City B. After all, it is an honor for him to contribute to the future of mankind!"
Tsk tsk tsk⦠How cruel! Gu Xiao silently lit a candle for Lu Chi!
At the Lu family's base in City B, the head of the Lu family, Lu Dingtian, grabbed the teacup beside him and smashed it hard at his son in front of him.
Mother Lu screamed and rushed over, pushing her son away. The teacup landed at Lu Shengfeng's feet with a clang, frightening him so much that he shuddered and shrank into a ball, despite being 1.8 meters tall.
Seeing his cowardly appearance, Lu Dingtian's anger rose even more. If it weren't for his mother's desperate protection, he would have beaten him to death.
"Tell me, what can you do? I asked you to do something, and you've been dragging your feet for so long?"
Lu Shengfeng hid behind his mother and argued softly, "I don't want to do it!"
Looking at his son who looked so cowardly, and thinking about his grandson who he had carefully raised as his heir and was now unconscious, Lu Dingtian's heart sank. He raised his cane and shouted, "I'll beat you to death, you useless thing...!"
Before he could finish his words, he felt darkness in front of his eyes and his whole body began to shake.
Seeing this, the two men didn't care about the old man's beating and scolding, screamed for a doctor, and immediately stepped forward to help him sit down on a chair.
Mother Lu cried while holding Lu Dingtian's chest to help him breathe, then said with resentment: "If you want to hit someone, hit me! Who made me give birth to him? No matter whether he is smart or stupid, he is your child and mine. Do you really want to beat him to death?"
After saying that, he winked at his son and told him to go down quickly.
Seeing this, Lu Shengfeng immediately lowered his head and retreated, then asked the family doctor who had rushed over after hearing the noise to come in.
After hearing what his wife said, Lu Dingtian felt a lump in his chest, so tight that it hurt.
Thinking about the news sent by Yuanshan Base this time, if Ah Chi can successfully upgrade his superpowers, it will be a great help to the family. Thinking of this, Lu Dingtian's anger gradually subsided.
After the family doctor examined him and saw that Lu Dingtian had fallen asleep, Lu's mother quietly came out. The family doctor was standing outside the door with his back bent. When he saw Lu's mother, he quickly greeted her.
"Hello, Madam Lu...!"
Mrs. Lu snorted and walked straight to her study, and the family doctor hurriedly followed her.
"Tell me, you just winked at me, how is the old man's health?"
The family doctor sighed, shook his head, and said, "The old man's health is getting worse and worse, and he's already showing signs of a stroke. Medicines are in short supply right now, so he can't let himself get angry again. He might just have a stroke next time."
When Mrs. Lu heard this, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes.
"Is there no way to cure it?" After all, they have been married for decades, and they were still sad to hear the news.
The family doctor shook his head and said, "This all depends on Mr. Lu controlling his temper, staying calm, and not getting angry or irritated easily."
Hearing this, Madam Lu couldn't help but frown. Isn't this just empty talk?
Watching the family doctor open the door and go out, Mrs. Lu just stood up when she saw Lu Dingtian's Secretary Zhao hurriedly passing by her study door with a telegram.
My heart was moved, and I immediately went out and shouted: "Stop, what are you holding in your hand?"
As he asked, he walked forward and snatched the telegram from Secretary Zhao's hand.
"Madam..." Secretary Zhao was anxious, but he had no idea what to do.
There were only a few words in the telegram!
"The distant mountains were taken away, and were returned late!"
Seeing these eight words, Madam Lu's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
In an instant, I made up my mind.
She refolded the telegram and put it in her pocket.
"Madam, Mr. Lu hasn't read this telegram yet!" Secretary Zhao originally thought that the old lady would return the telegram to him after reading it, but he didn't expect that she would put the telegram away directly. He immediately became anxious.
