"How will you give me a gift?"
Lu Yanhuai took it, opened the back and showed surprise: "Isn't this the string of beads I gave you?"
The wooden box contained the jade beads that Lu Yanhuai had given Chang Le a year ago when she visited the Ninth District during the filming of a variety show.
"Back then, my body hadn't fully recovered, and you gave it to me to help me recover. Now, I'm returning it to you, and you should also take good care of yourself."
After Chang Le finished speaking, he left without lingering any longer.
Lu Yanhuai lay on the recliner, stroking the string of jade beads. Suddenly, he noticed that there was a smooth, round core on the beads, and the entire string of beads exuded an even more original and pure life force.
This is already a new gift.
Lu Yanhuai smiled unconsciously, wrapping the beaded bracelet around his slender wrist as he lay back on the recliner, his expression even more relaxed and at ease than before.
When Chang Le left, she ran into Lu Jin'an. In just two months, Lu Jin'an had become much more mature and composed.
Knowing that she had gone to visit, Lu Jin'an thanked her:
“Although my godfather doesn’t show it on his face, he’s actually feeling bad inside. But there are some things we can’t say or ask. You’re the girl he watched grow up. If you can talk to him, he’ll feel a lot better. Chang Le, thank you.”
Chang Le simply smiled and said, "We are family, and family doesn't need to speak like that."
Lu Jin'an nodded with a smile.
After leaving the Wolf Clan, Chang Le and his companions went directly to Hua'an City. When they arrived in Hua'an City, it was still early, so Chang Le applied to the Heaven-Mending Tower for permission to enter the Bronze Tomb Secret Realm.
While waiting for the application to be approved, new discoveries were made at Cuiwei Academy.
Changfeng told Changle that through research on Qin Shaoji's body tissues and original energy, they discovered that the drugs he took, in addition to forcibly enhancing his body's endurance, did indeed contain a portion of another kind of superpower, and that superpower did not come from humans, but from a different species.
“Besides that, there’s another discovery, but it can’t be completely confirmed,” Changfeng said. “Forcing the body to bear foreign superpowers, instead of suppressing the mutation, injecting a superpower with a higher probability of mutation, I always feel that the person behind it is doing it on purpose.”
Chang Le immediately understood what he meant: "You mean, the person behind the scenes is deliberately cultivating powerful mutants?"
“I think it’s possible, but,” Changfeng himself was also puzzled, “Judging from the mutants we’ve encountered before, those with milder mutations in the fusion experiment only had superpowers or parts of their bodies mutated, but those with severe mutations, like that leopard man, almost completely lost their human reason.”
This is enough to show that the higher the degree of mutation, the more uncontrollable and impossible to use by humans. Yet, the people behind the scenes dare to deliberately cultivate them. I can't understand their purpose.
Chang Le frowned as he thought of something: "Seeking fame, power, and status still leaves room for maneuver. The real danger is that the person behind it is a madman who seeks not survival, but destruction."
Changfeng also realized that if this were the case, the consequences would be unimaginable.
After hearing what Changfeng said, Chang Le also went to report to the region, reminding them to strengthen the investigation and research on the mutants.
Before we knew it, it was August, and Gu Yujing and Hua Anning got married.
The wedding wasn't lavishly decorated, but every detail was meticulously designed. The guests were all relatives and friends from both families.
After Chang Le presented the gift, he sat down at a table with Bai Xie and the others. Members of the Infinite Team and the Crimson Flame Team also came over.
Meng Danruo felt a little awkward in front of Chang Le.
Since the investigation and punishment of the Meng family head, the Meng family has been in decline and is in a difficult situation. Meng Danruo is also in a rather awkward position within her original circle. She herself doesn't care much about those prestigious family titles, and her mental fortitude has grown; she can usually withstand various gazes. However, with the twists and turns of their grudges, she is somewhat unsure how to face Chang Le.
However, to her surprise, Chang Le, who arrived first, simply smiled and nodded when she saw them, then turned to chat with Bai Xie and the others, as if her grudges with the Meng family had never happened.
Meng Danruo breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Hua Wuyan sat beside her, holding her hand and offering silent comfort, but he would no longer stand against Chang Le without any restraint as before. His guilt towards Chang Le was purer than Meng Danruo's.
Chang Le didn't care what they thought; she simply enjoyed the wedding as a guest.
According to TuTu's original novel, the female lead Hua Anning and the male lead Gu Yujing held a grand wedding in the finale. Countless people sent them their blessings, and even on the internet, many people called them a match made in heaven, a divine couple.
Looking at Hua Anning on the stage, dressed in a bright red phoenix-embroidered wedding gown, looking radiant and beautiful, Chang Le couldn't take his eyes off the happiness that unconsciously emanated from her face.
Gu Yujing, who is usually calm and composed, is almost thirty years old. The red mark on her neck has never faded since she went on stage, and she has forgotten most of the program she had memorized.
The two held hands and looked at each other, making a vow.
Chang Le knew that they would be very happy, just like in the original novel, they would be happy for life and grow old together.
As he looked around, Xunfeng suddenly sighed, "Look at Anning, and then look at this table, how many old bachelors are there, hmm?"
Bai Xie said irritably, "Dog, you're the kind of person who ruins the mood."
"Go to hell... you damn dog! Today is a joyous occasion, I'm not going to lay a hand on you!" Xunfeng bared his teeth in anger.
Chi Yan, also a bachelor, chose to side with Bai Xie this time: "Xun Feng, what's with all this talk about being old? We're only in our early twenties, the age to be striving for our dreams. What's the point of talking about love if we're not working hard to cultivate?"
