Harmony Street, Orphanage.
When He Xie walked into the house, it was already 11 p.m.
By this time, the adoptive mother's sisters had all gone to bed.
The room was very quiet.
He Xie changed into a pair of slippers and came to the living room, intending to sit and play on his phone for a while before taking a shower and going to bed.
When he walked behind the sofa, he sensed that there was someone lying on it.
He lay there motionless.
Breathing is calm and even.
It seems she's asleep.
"Aunt Liu, if you're sleepy, go to your room to sleep. You'll easily catch a cold if you sleep here."
He Xie walked around the sofa and said.
But the very next second after he finished speaking, he realized that the person lying on the sofa was not Liu Yan, but Lin Chuchu.
"Hmm~" Lin Chuchu woke up.
When she saw He Xie return, she immediately sat up and asked, "Why are you so late?"
"I had a chat with Minister Li, so I came back a little late."
After saying that, He Xie asked, "Why are you sleeping on this sofa? Don't you need to go home?"
Lin Chuchu complained, "It's all your fault. If you had come back earlier, I wouldn't have fallen asleep sitting on the sofa waiting for you."
"..." He Xie was speechless, then asked, "So... why haven't you gone home yet?"
Lin Chuchu pouted, a hint of dissatisfaction appearing on her pretty face, and said, "Do you really want me to go home that much?"
Women's perspectives are always so unique...
He Xie thought for a moment and said, "No, I was just a little curious because I heard your sister Xiao Xiao mention that your family's discipline is quite strict."
"Xiaoxiao wanted to stay here overnight, so I thought I'd keep her company. Then she helped me lie to my dad and said I was staying at her house overnight."
Lin Chuchu explained.
Spend some time with her?
Perhaps you yourself would prefer to stay overnight?
He Xie thought to himself, then said, "It's getting late, let's get some rest. I'm going to take a shower and then it'll be time for bed."
"We'll wash later." Lin Chuchu reached out and grabbed He Xie's hand, her face slightly flushed, and said, "Um... let's do that one more time."
He Xie raised an eyebrow, smiled knowingly, and asked, "Which one are you referring to?"
"Just a kiss..."
Lin Chuchu looked at He Xie with a shy expression and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz.
He Xie smiled gently, leaned down and pounced on her on the sofa, then took her place.
......
After taking a shower.
He Xieping lay on the bed staring at the ceiling.
He recalled his conversation with Li Qingteng at the Night Watch headquarters.
Regarding the demonic plant attack incident twenty years ago.
This attack was directed at the University of Mountain and Sea Evolution.
This caused a stir throughout the entire Kyushu region at the time.
Chen Caiqing, on the other hand, was implicated and died in the attack by the demonic plant.
He Xie couldn't understand this.
How did an ordinary person who sold breakfast at the school gate become Elder Chen in the Divine Plant Cult after his death?
This is clearly illogical.
So, is there something else going on here?
He Xie was completely baffled.
"Shake~"
Suddenly, the cell phone next to my pillow started twitching violently.
He Xie picked up his phone and saw that it was a message from Chen Yuntong on WeChat.
Chen Yuntong: I just asked my parents, and they both said they don't know anyone named Chen Caiqing.
He Xie: Thank you for your help.
Chen Yuntong: You're welcome.
Chen Yuntong: By the way, why did you ask me if I knew this person named Chen Caiqing?
He Xie: Because she looks a lot like you.
Chen Yuntong: Huh? Really?
He Xie: May I ask if you look like your mother?
Chen Yuntong: Very similar. I perfectly inherited my mother's looks and figure.
He Xie: Do you have any photos of your mother? Send me a few to see.
Chen Yuntong: What?
He Xie: I want to be your stepfather.
Chen Yuntong: ? ? ?
[The contrast value from Chen Yuntong is +9764.]
Hey, I'm happy just being a little mischievous.
He Xie looked at the numerical notification that popped up deep in his mind and burst into laughter, rolling around on the bed like a child.
Sometimes, a man's happiness is that simple.
"Shake~"
The phone started twitching wildly again.
Chen Yuntong sent over a photo of her mother.
There are several.
He Xie opened the photo and his eyes widened in shock.
The woman in the photo looks exactly like Chen Caiqing!
What's going on here?
Is Chen Caiqing Chen Yuntong's mother?
Is this a case of hiding one's identity?
He Xie became increasingly suspicious and immediately sent a message to Chen Yuntong: What is your mother's name?
Chen Yuntong replied instantly: My mom's name is Chen Yu'er.
Chen Yu'er?
He Xie felt that the name sounded familiar.
I feel like I've seen it somewhere before.
He thought about it carefully, and then quickly recalled it.
Chen Caiqing's file has an older sister whose name happens to be Chen Yu'er!
Are they twin sisters?
Or should we remain anonymous?
But if they are twin sisters, why did Chen Yuntong's mother say she didn't know Chen Caiqing?
He Xie felt more and more uneasy.
He didn't overthink it and quickly sent the message to Li Qingteng.
He instructed Li Qingteng, the head of the Night Watch, to investigate Chen Caiqing's sister, Chen Yu'er, suggesting that this might be a breakthrough in the investigation of the Divine Plant Cult.
Li Qingteng replied with a "good".
Half an hour later.
Li Qingteng sent another message.
I sent a long message.
Li Qingteng: I just checked Chen Yu'er's file. This woman is Chen Caiqing's twin sister and is now the owner of Chen's Trading Company. She is worth hundreds of millions.
He Xie: Is it possible that she is Chen Caiqing herself, and is now living under an assumed name?
Li Qingteng: It's unlikely. At the time you were attacked by the Divine Plant Cult, Chen Yu'er was having dinner with her ex-husband Liu Tianhong at a restaurant.
Ex-husband? Liu Tianhong?
It's not a gold mine...
He Xie's expression was somewhat strange. He thought to himself that Chen Yuntong's mother was really promiscuous, having had several ex-husbands.
After chatting for a while longer.
He Xie felt it was about time, so he put down his phone and prepared to go to sleep.
But then, the phone started twitching violently again.
He picked it up and saw that it was a WeChat message from Lin Chuchu.
Lin Chuchu: Are you asleep?
He Xie: I was just about to go to sleep.
Lin Chuchu: I can't sleep, can you chat with me?
He Xie: Sure.
Lin Chuchu: Then I'll go to your room now.
He Xie: ?
He Xie: Weren't we chatting on WeChat?
Lin Chuchu didn't reply to him.
Soon, there was a knock on the door.
The sound was very soft, so soft that only He Xie inside the room could hear it.
"Thank you, please open the door."
Lin Chuchu's soft voice came from outside the door.
Helpless, He Xie could only get out of bed and open the door for her to come in.
"Creakâ"
The door was opened gently.
He Xie saw Lin Chuchu standing gracefully at the door, dressed in her pajamas.
These pajamas look so familiar, they seem to belong to my younger sister, Song Yuxin.
"Shall I come in?"
Lin Chuchu blinked her beautiful eyes, her pretty face slightly flushed as she looked at He Xie.
Her shy and bashful appearance is very alluring.
He Xie smiled and said, "I'm telling you, you're a young lady, coming to my room all by yourself late at night. Aren't you afraid I'll do something naughty?"
"Hmph, you dare?"
Lin Chuchu pouted, her face flushed.
Although she said that, she was actually full of anticipation.
She has liked He Xie for three whole years.
She sat next to each other for all three years of high school, seeing each other but not being able to eat together, which made her feel really stifled.
She was thrilled to be spending the night in the same room as her sweetheart.
He Xie wasn't stupid either; he probably knew what Lin Chuchu was thinking.
Some even suspected that she was wearing a suit underneath.
Girls are said to be innocent, but in reality, they often have more complex thoughts than boys.
"We've agreed beforehand that we'll just chat tonight, and you're not allowed to touch me in any way."
Lin Chuchu walked to the bedside and sat down, speaking with a reserved expression.
She didn't want to appear too proactive, feeling that would make her seem too cheap.
So he pretended to be reserved for a while.
He Xie ignored those words and bent down to kiss Lin Chuchu.
Women, they just like to say one thing and mean another.
As a man, you have to take the initiative.
But before he could even kiss her, several system notifications suddenly popped up deep in his mind.
[Ding-dong!]
[Task: Cultivate an image of an honest and trustworthy person.]
You are a very honest person. Even if you're sleeping in the same bed with a girl you like, you can resist touching her inappropriately unless she throws herself at you. Otherwise, you absolutely won't take advantage of her in the slightest.
[Reward: One Creation Fruit.]
Damn it, this system is awful!
Seeing the mission information suddenly pop up in the depths of his mind, He Xie was so angry he almost vomited blood.
......
P.S.: I'm setting up the bowls, please vote with monthly tickets and recommendations!
