In Qian Dahai's memory, Lu Yuan had never disobeyed them. From the moment he brought him out of the laboratory, he had been brainwashing him in the way his father had taught him, but his excellence was beyond his expectations.
He also miraculously survived the battle with the predators three years ago.
From then on, Qian Dahai couldn't sleep soundly every night. He always remembered the cold look Lu Yuan gave him when he killed their "reserve" three years ago when he returned to the Allied Country.
He was afraid of losing control, so he kept trying to strengthen monitoring and intervention. In fact, Xia Yixin guessed correctly. He did want to use Xia Yixin as bait, but not as one of the many benefits.
Under Qian Dahai's scrutinizing gaze, Lu Yuan glanced at Xia Yixin, whose face was full of tension, before answering.
“That’s right. I had the execution team help distribute the supplies as a blessing. Uncle Qian, you once said there was a saying when I was a kid: ‘throw a brick to attract jade.’ The people in Area B have been suppressed for too long. Those long-standing problems can only be eradicated with drastic measures. Now they are more obedient.”
Indeed, after the executors took away the ringleaders last night, all thirteen Sky Cities were placed under martial law, and everything was under control.
One sentence left Qian Dahai speechless.
Qian Dahai watched him protect her and warned, "I'm warning you, don't try anything funny. Don't forget who put you on the pedestal."
"Uncle Qian, don't worry, she's just a woman, she won't cause any trouble." Lu Yuan smiled, seemingly oblivious to the warning in his words.
Qian Dahai snorted, "You'd better know it yourself. Don't forget the plan we made before. Your uncle doesn't want to see you make a mistake."
Lu Yuan chuckled noncommittally.
Suddenly, several people around stepped forward to smooth things over.
"Alright, alright, it's all a misunderstanding. Chief Lu is right, the problem has been solved, hasn't it? The higher her prestige, the better. We're all family, it's not easy for us to get together like this!" Principal Zhang said as he pulled Lu Yuan to his side. Professor Li, though silent, clearly positioned himself in front of Lu Yuan, subtly protecting him and Xia Yixin behind them.
The other three people stood on Qian Dahai's side: Fang Bin and two other heads of high-ranking families. They said, "Don't be angry. The kid is young and can be a little confused."
Phrases like "We're all family, don't be angry, let's all have a drink" were being said, but a subtle disagreement was already emerging.
Qian Dahai knew that Principal Zhang and Professor Li had been "turned" to the enemy, but he couldn't do anything about it. So everyone could only maintain a "superficial peace."
Seeing that it was almost time, Fang Bin changed the subject, saying, "Alright, alright, since it was a misunderstanding, then it's fine. Hey you, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and call the girls in. Everyone should enjoy a 'massage' tonight."
At his command, some new girls came in and surrounded the men.
Lu Yuan gave her a push and said in a deep voice, "Go wait over there."
Xia Yixin pretended to have a sullen face and went to the lounge area in the corner of the room. Lu Yuan then sat down next to Qian Dahai and raised his wine glass.
Qian Dahai narrowed his eyes slightly.
Was Lu Yuan truly in love or just acting? Qian Dahai was actually a little unsure.
However, as long as Xia Yixin exists, she is a target. If Lu Yuan really develops some different feelings for Xia Yixin, it will be more advantageous for Qian Dahai. This way, it will be easier for him to control him. After all, a silly boy who is obsessed with love will have a weakness.
Cases of liquor were delivered.
The women and drinks that soon entangled him made him forget about the incident, and for some reason, he found the drinks particularly palatable that day.
Before long, he got drunk and started getting handsy, not noticing that Lu Yuan was different from them; he looked drunk but actually became more and more sober the more he drank.
He has never lacked women in his life for over fifty years, and like power, he has only become more and more greedy.
Although the Allied powers stipulated that there could be no third-party relationships between men and women, nor could there be excessive intimate contact, they did not strictly prohibit performances of a purely "appreciative" nature or so-called "massage services."
The A-level gene users at the top are very good at exploiting loopholes.
Young and beautiful, she started performing pole dancing and other suggestive dances at the bar in front of her.
The music was loud and the smell of smoke and alcohol filled the entire space.
This group of people seemed to have come up simply to catch up with Lu Yuan. They were so friendly that it was as if they weren't the ones who were just at odds. They started their "usual" chatter about the past and bragging, mainly with the three lackeys around Qian Dahai praising him.
From their conversation, Xia Yixin deeply felt the extent of corruption among the upper-level A-grade gene individuals. They didn't care at all about the dilapidated houses and dirty environment she had seen in Zone B; all they talked about was how to exploit the value of those B-grade gene individuals to the greatest extent possible.
Lu Yuan didn't answer a word the whole time, he just drank.
Before she knew it, she had been in that smoky place for an hour.
Her wise choice was to minimize her presence; she didn't even dare drink the water, for who knows if anything had been added to it.
Seeing a woman sit down next to Lu Yuan, she felt there was no need to stay there until the end.
After all, Lu Yuan had the same face as Lu Yan, and even though she knew they weren't the same person, she still found it jarring.
"Excuse me, where is the restroom?" Xia Yixin asked a girl dancing next to her.
The dancing girl was a B-grade gene user, very alluring. She paused for a moment, but still pointed her in a direction.
Xia Yixin walked out, and a thick white hatch concealed the noise inside.
Two men in black followed her, ostensibly to protect her, but actually to monitor her.
They controlled the entire floor, and even other places were under their surveillance.
The corridor is lined with floor-to-ceiling glass on both sides, made of a special material that can withstand the impact of meteorites from outer space. Of course, in a state of combat readiness, there is an additional protective layer on the outside.
But at this very moment, the starry sky, the deep universe, and the three dazzling stars are so beautiful that one can't help but stop and admire them. It's just a pity that amidst such a beautiful scene, the Eden is filled with smoke and fumes.
Suddenly, a spaceship flew by on the far side of the planet.
She knew that the documentary had mentioned that there were also military bases on the back of the other three large planets in this galaxy, where tens of thousands of A-level gene warriors served.
To prevent the recurrence of terrifying alien invaders such as predators.
She didn't know where the beautiful women in the corridor had gone, or when they would finish. After entering the restroom, she simply found a stall, flipped down the toilet seat, and decided to wait for half an hour. Anyway, with those men in black guarding the door, she couldn't just run out into the universe.
Not long after, the sound of high heels came from outside and entered a nearby cubicle.
At first, Xia Yixin didn't pay attention, until she heard a suppressed sob, and immediately sat up straight.
