Chapter 612 She's always had this stubborn temper since she was a child.
A family?
Upon hearing those three words, Xia Xun's lips curled into an extremely sarcastic smile, and he slowly said, "My parents are indeed quite lonely underground. Since you're so desperate for family, why don't you go find them?"
"..."
Li Xiao's smile faltered, and he stared intently at the smiling girl with deep eyes.
"However, they probably don't want to see you, their unfilial son." Xia Xun smirked and spoke again without any mercy: "Li Xiao, just be a lone wolf, you deserve it."
"Oh."
After hearing Xia Xun's sarcasm, Li Xiao licked his back teeth and said, suppressing his anger, "No wonder Ghost is so quick-witted, he inherited it from you."
"Is that so?"
Thinking of his daughter, Xia Xun's heart softened a little, and he said with a forced smile, "Of course my daughter looks like me."
"..."
Li Xiao felt a pang of discomfort as he listened.
That's right.
He's just jealous.
She was jealous that Sheng Beitang and Xia Xun had such a remarkable daughter.
——
I don't know how much time passed.
The car, which had been swaying all the way, finally came to a stop.
Xia Xun opened her eyes and saw a pure white, beautiful villa standing on the beach.
It's exactly the same as the villa that Li Xiao destroyed more than a decade ago.
only……
Although they are exactly the same, they are no longer gifts given to me by my parents.
"Do you like it?" Li Xiao opened the car door and gazed at her tenderly.
"I like your mom." Xia Xun stood straight and slowly uttered the four words.
The art of language is on full display at this moment.
Li Xiao understood, but he wasn't angry.
She's always had this stubborn temper since she was a child.
I'm used to it.
"Let's go in and take a look."
"..."
Xia Xun stood still, his entire being filled with resistance.
"Ah Xun, don't make me angry." Li Xiao raised the bomb remote control in his hand.
It exploded.
She would perish together with Li Xiao.
Oh.
The thought of dying alongside him is disgusting.
not to mention.
She was still looking forward to a better life and had no intention of dying.
Xia Xun's eyes dimmed, and he followed with a cold face.
soon.
She was taken into the villa by Li Xiao.
It is indeed a one-to-one replica, with no difference from the original.
The only thing that has changed is...
There was another woman in the villa, staring at her fiercely.
An Huan.
She was one of my best friends at the research institute in Country A.
She and Sheng Beitang were captured and their genes were extracted to cultivate children for use as tools.
An Huan deserves much credit.
She still doesn't understand why her best friend betrayed her.
For fame and fortune, or for being a good person?
Xia Xun glanced at the two of them, and a judgment formed in his mind.
I think so.
"Ah Xun, long time no see." When An Huan saw her, a flash of disgust crossed her face, and she put on a friendly smile.
"That shouldn't be the case."
Xia Xun raised his eyes and stared coldly at her, saying slowly, "During the more than ten years I was imprisoned in the Hidden World Pavilion, you should have seen me every day."
"They're all old foxes, why are they playing at Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio?"
"..."
An Huan was rendered speechless by the retort, and her feigned smile vanished.
"Years have passed, but Dr. Xia's mouth is still very sharp."
The way we address each other has changed.
"You haven't changed either," Xia Xun sneered. "You're so hypocritical it's disgusting."
"..."
An Huan's gaze turned cold, and she could no longer utter a word.
"Go about your business."
Li Xiao suddenly spoke up, "I'll show A-Xun her room."
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, An Huan's fingers slowly tightened.
There is a laboratory in the villa.
When the manor caught fire last time, she risked her life to bring back a lot of documents.
After being "reminded" by the ghost, they roughly knew the direction of their research.
Once I get the item, I'll have a hundred ways to kill Xia Xun.
The only one who can stay by Li Xiao's side is himself.
——
Second floor.
Xia Xun stared at the beautifully decorated room, showing no joy whatsoever.
"You'll live here from now on," Li Xiao said to himself. "Once the research is successful, we'll get married."
"..."
Xia Xun glanced at him, then pursed her lips and remained silent.
Damn it, you're mentally challenged.
"It's too late, you should rest first." Li Xiao said gently, "By the way, the explosives on your body are waterproof, so it won't affect your shower."
"But if you try to take it off, it will automatically detonate."
Xia Xun glanced down at it a few times.
This explosive is indeed unusual, just as Li Xiao said.
"good evening."
Li Xiao considerately closed the door and left.
Xia Xun looked around and walked to the balcony to look outside.
This area used to be a small fishing village, which my parents bought at a high price.
Escape the hustle and bustle of the city.
Looking into the distance, you can't even see the city lights.
Xia Xun raised his hand and pointed to an empty mountain peak.
If I remember correctly.
After crossing this mountain and taking a few more roads, you'll reach the capital city.
"call--"
Xia Xun lay on the bed, took out the family photo she always carried with her, and looked at the people in the photo with tender eyes.
I wonder if Sheng Beitang will cause trouble.
Probably not.
He knew her plans.
What about the children?
Knowing that she left without saying goodbye, I'm sure I'll be very sad.
Especially the fog.
She was still waiting to attend her engagement party.
Thinking about this...
Xia Xun closed her eyes, tears sliding down her cheeks.
She's such a bad mother.
——
laboratory.
Li Xiao operated the computer while observing the woman in the video.
He saw her crying.
So what?
He will not give her another chance to leave.
The research should be completed in a few more days.
After success.
He then took Xia Xun away from the capital and went to a place where no one knew him.
restart.
"Li Xiao..."
Seeing him lost in thought, An Huan, who was standing next to him, spoke up unhappily: "Look at this data, is it correct?"
"Um."
Li Xiao regained his composure and leaned closer to look: "No problem."
He added, "An Huan, thank you. If it weren't for your foresight in copying the ghost's data and risking your life to save me, our research would have been completely ruined."
"I have put a lot of effort into this research, so naturally I don't want to see it destroyed."
Looking at Li Xiao's face, An Huan's eyes softened: "Based on Ghost's previous research direction, I believe we can complete the research in less than half a month."
"If we succeed, the world is ours."
Li Xiao was still indulging in his grand dreams, speaking with great passion and enthusiasm.
"come on."
An Huan laughed like an idiot.
——
The capital city.
Inside the taekwondo room.
Pei Jinwu was in a bad mood and angrily beat up the "human punching bag".
"Stop, stop, stop!"
Unable to hold on any longer, Shang Xun raised his hands in surrender, panting heavily, and said, "Sister-in-law, you're beating me up like a Japanese devil!"
"Is this all you've accomplished over the past few months working for my fourth sister?"
Pei Jinwu took off her gloves and threw them into his arms, sneering, "My fourth sister didn't kick you out; she really had a change of heart."
"I've already tried my best."
"How boring." Pei Jinwu lowered her eyes and left with a bad expression.
"Little sister-in-law."
Shang Xun, clutching his gloves, caught up with him and said cautiously, "Still not done? How about we continue? I can hold out a little longer!"
"never mind."
Pei Jinwu, hands in his pockets, coldly said, "Your body can't withstand my beating."
——
There's more.
