Chapter 357 A Genius Used as Cannon Fodder in the Apocalyptic Wasteland (68)



Huo Xingchen, who had just dropped a bombshell, was currently snuggled up with Qingyou watching a movie set before the Great Cataclysm.

The two of them have been too busy lately, and they finally managed to carve out a day to spend some time together.

After watching the movie, the two held hands and went to a coffee shop in District 1, where they ordered drinks and sat by the window chatting.

Both of them were protected by skilled guards, and even if someone recognized them, they could not get close.

Qingyou took a sip of coffee and said with a smile, "If you release your potion, the Huo family will probably regret it even more, and their resentment towards the Huo family patriarch and his son will be even stronger."

They receive news about the Yan and Huo families regularly.

Huo Xingchen chuckled and said, "That's exactly the effect I wanted. I don't even need to lift a finger; the Huo family's higher-ups will bring them down on their own."

"With the continuous innovation of the medicines developed through my cooperation with the military and the Ji family, the Huo family will soon be eliminated and go bankrupt, following in the footsteps of the Yan family."

When Huo Huanyu initially wanted to use him to contribute to the family, and later tried to kill him, the Huo family's higher-ups were all aware of this, but no one stepped in to stop it.

Even more so, many people are on the side of their scumbag father.

Now that he realizes how good he is, and wants to quell his anger by bringing up his scumbag father and son, it's too late!

Families like the Yan and Huo families, which have long been rotten to the core, should come to an end.

Qingyou laughed and said, "Yes, they can't keep up with your pace at all; they'll only be eliminated."

The Huo family still wanted to coax Xiaoxing back and make her work for them as well. I don't know how confident they were that they would be so foolish as to fall for such a trick.

Huo Xingchen laughed and said, "Even the Yan family can't keep up with your pace. I heard that their research on biological combat suits has made some progress and will be successful in a while."

"I'm really looking forward to seeing how they create the treasure they think can save the Yan family, only to find that the trump card you played can completely crush them. It'll be quite a show."

It's estimated that Grandpa Yan will vomit blood and faint from shock this time, and be sent to the hospital.

Qingyou also grinned mischievously, "I'm really looking forward to that day too."

"After drinking mental and physical enhancement potions for a while longer, we should be able to use the Ace."

They did manage to create that thing before, but unfortunately their mental strength and physical abilities were lacking, so they couldn't control it.

Otherwise, they would have already directed the support for the Fourth District.

Huo Xingchen nodded, "I've improved two more potions, and we'll definitely be able to do it in a while."

He suddenly remembered something, "There's a big auction going on at the auction house in a few days, shall we go check it out together?"

Such large-scale auctions only happen once every year or two, so powerful families, forces, or individual strongmen from the four districts will all come to participate.

He wanted to show off his affection with Youyou.

It's easy to guess how furious Huo Huanyu and Ping Hongxi will be then.

Those two are having a hard time, so he and Youyou are having a good time.

Of course, he also wanted to declare sovereignty.

Recently, quite a few people have been trying to get close to Youyou, with several third-generation heirs from prominent families looking for various excuses to approach her.

Don't think he knows what those people are up to; they just want to seduce Youyou and steal her away from him.

You must be dreaming!

Qingyou could tell what Huo Xingchen was thinking just by looking at his expression.

She smiled and pinched his cheek, indulgently saying, "Okay, I'll go with you."

"By then, my hovercar should be finished, and we can drive it there."

Huo Xingchen took her hand and kissed it. "This is good. I like to show off like this."

If it's research he does himself, he doesn't really care how popular it becomes.

He felt proud of anything his own Youyou made and wanted to show it off.

Five days later, the auction was held.

The event will not be held at an auction house, but at the largest hotel in the city center, starting at 2 p.m.

It was a little after 1 p.m.

The hotel did not build an underground parking lot, mainly because they were afraid of mutated insects underground.

So the parking lot is located in an area outside the hotel, and luxury cars are driving in one after another.

The people who got off the car were mostly dressed in formal attire.

Suddenly someone pointed to the sky not far away and said, "Where's that car?"

Everyone else looked up, and then their eyes widened. "It really is a car."

"But how can a car fly?"

"Ahhh, I know, this car must be Yuzuru's."

"Yes, this is very likely the hovercar that Yu Shen mentioned before that can fly."

The excited and loud exclamations from below were heard by those already upstairs.

They all went to the window to look, and when they saw the car flying in from not far away, they were also shocked.

The Yan and Huo families have been in a terrible predicament lately, with their weapons and pharmaceutical businesses on the verge of collapse. So they came to the hotel early to wait and talk to some acquaintances to see if they could cooperate.

They followed the others to the window and looked at the car flying in the sky; their faces were all grim.

Ping Hongxi also came this time.

The Yan family originally didn't want to bring her, but she made an excuse that she wanted to see if there were any materials needed at the auction, which might be helpful for the progress of the biological combat suit manufacturing.

That's why the Yan family couldn't bring her along.

However, this time her identity has changed to a weapons research staff member for the Yan family, no longer that of a young lady from the Yan family.

Huo Huanyu has recently been suppressed and ostracized by the Huo family's higher-ups. The Huo family head's position as head of the family is becoming increasingly unstable due to his influence. Originally, the Huo family did not want to bring him along.

However, Huo Huanyu said he had definite news that Qingyou would attend the auction, and he wanted to try again to win her back.

The Huo family all knew the value of the green pomelo, so they brought it along, thinking they had nothing to lose.

Ping Hongxi saw Huo Huanyu and wanted to go up and greet him, but Huo Huanyu deliberately avoided her gaze and ignored her.

Then they heard exclamations from downstairs, and the two followed their family members to the window.

Looking at the car flying in the distance, Ping Hongxi's eyes were filled with disbelief and anger. Qingyou could actually make such a thing, but she didn't tell her in her past life.

Huo Huanyu's eyes were filled with complex regret.

A moment later, everyone watched as the car flew over from the sky and landed on the ground.

Huo Xingchen got out of the driver's seat first, then opened the passenger door and stretched out a hand.

Then everyone saw a fair hand placed in Huo Xingchen's hand, and Qingyou, dressed in a long dress and looking exquisite, stepped out of the car.

Many people stared at Qingyou with shining eyes, then at the sleek and stylish hovercar.

Ji Yong and his sister, Si Qin and Gong Yu were also in the parking lot at this time.

Seeing what had just happened, they all quickly walked up to Qingyou and the other person.

Gong Yu couldn't help but touch the car body and asked Qingyou, "Qingyou, is this the hovercar you mentioned before?"

Most men love cars, and he is one of them.

He had been looking forward to the hovercar that Qingyou had mentioned, but he never expected that she would actually develop it so quickly.
