"I am acting on orders to confiscate this property. The laboratory is government property. If you obstruct me any further, you are obstructing official business!" the leading officer shouted sternly.
Chang Le remained unyielding, her face cold: "I've already said that all the items in the laboratory are Mr. [Name]'s private property, not the government's. You have no right to take them away!"
"I am not a government official. I only take orders from the Master. Without his permission, you are not allowed to enter!"
As he spoke, the vines covering the walls and floor stood up, their hard barbs and awl-like tips pointing directly at the people in the corridor.
The officer's expression changed slightly.
Among them, the highest cultivation level was only seventh rank. They had only come because Jiu Fanggui was away, and they hadn't expected to find such a powerful young girl here. However, they had orders from above, and they couldn't leave empty-handed.
"This is the last time! If you don't get out of the way, I'll take you down right now!" The officer hardened his heart, and the soldiers behind him followed.
Chang Le still refused to back down.
"You're asking for death!" The officer drew his sword from his waist.
"presumptuous--"
A sharp shout echoed down the corridor. The angry voice was amplified by powerful energy, creating a powerful impact, like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing into them. Everyone felt a sharp pain in their heads and screamed in agony.
Even with Chang Le's profound spiritual cultivation, she was still shaken and felt uncomfortable. One hand held her shoulder blade, and the gentle energy instantly took away the strong impact.
Upon seeing the newcomer, Chang Le's eyes lit up: "Sir!"
Jiu Fanggui patted her lightly twice, shielding her behind him, his face cold as he stared at the group of soldiers with blood flowing from their mouths and noses, his gaze fixed on Officer Rong.
"It was you who wanted to make the move." Jiu Fanggui raised his hand and waved it.
An invisible, silent blade sliced through.
"Aaaaaahh ...
The officer screamed and knelt down, his hand holding the knife falling to the ground, blood gushing out.
“Even Rong Jichang can’t touch my people, how dare you!” Jiu Fanggui lowered his eyes, his gaze contemptuous.
He has a friendly appearance, but when he half-closes his eyelids, lowers the corners of his mouth, and shows no smile, the arrogance and indifference hidden in his bones emanate from him, along with his solid aura of power, making people afraid to look up.
The officer and a group of soldiers lay on the ground, but Chang Le, standing behind Jiu Fanggui, could not see the coldness on his face at all. He could only feel the warmth and safety of his back.
"Leave your hands, you can take your things," Jiu Fanggui suddenly said.
The officer gritted his teeth, suppressing a groan, clutching his wrist which was being urgently stopped from bleeding. He waved to his deputy, ordering him to confiscate the items in the laboratory. He then glared at Jiu Fanggui before staggering away to receive treatment.
All the main instruments, samples, and data in the laboratory were confiscated. Jiu Fanggui glanced at them coldly.
"roll."
They were all carrying, on their backs, or shouldering things, and they ran off like they were on steroids.
After they left, Jiu Fanggui turned around, his expression no longer cold, but instead filled with concern:
"Are you injured?"
“No, sir.” Chang Le smiled, then glanced at the departing figures. “But, sir, are you just going to let them all take them away like this?”
Jiu Fanggui sneered, "It's fine, let them take it. Whatever they ate today, they'll have to vomit ten times over later."
The laboratory was now an empty shell, and Jiu Fang returned to his residence with Chang Le.
That evening, an unexpected person appeared at the house.
"Ye Xiao?" Chang Le looked at the person outside the door and blurted out in surprise.
"Huh? It's you." Ye Xiao looked down and finally found Chang Le.
He was nearly two meters tall, and his head looked like it was about to touch the door frame. Talking to him was quite a workout for Chang Le's neck.
"Please come in, the master is in the study." Chang Le offered her a seat.
Ye Xiao walked in and headed to the study with practiced ease.
Chang Le didn't go in; instead, he looked at the materials given to him by Jiu Fanggui in the small bedroom.
The two chatted for a long time, about two hours, when Chang Le heard Jiu Fanggui call her to the study.
As soon as she entered, she saw Ye Xiao staring at her with his sharp and imposing tiger eyes.
Chang Le: ?
Jiu Fanggui beckoned, and she jogged over, seeing a paper document on the table: a kinship test report.
"This is your paternity test with Lao Ye," Jiu Fanggui explained.
"ah?"
Chang Le was bewildered.
Who? With whom? What the hell??
"Lao Ye still can't forget you, Lei, from the last time he met you. He suspects you are his daughter and insists on a paternity test. This is the result."
Chang Le's expression was complicated: "So?"
“No,” Jiu Fanggui gave an expected answer, “and he still didn’t believe it.”
Chang Le was speechless and said helplessly, "Mr. Ye, the similarity between my lightning ability and yours is really just a coincidence, and we can't possibly be related by blood. If we're talking about blood relations, in what way do I look like you? It's more believable that you're my father than your daughter!"
After Chang Le finished speaking, he glanced at Jiu Fanggui with a cryptic look in his eyes.
Jiu Fanggui remained calm, assuming that she was trying to persuade Ye Xiao.
Normal people would think so too, but Ye Xiao was a stubborn person. He seriously examined and compared the two people, and then suddenly slapped his thigh: "Ninth Brother! This can't be your son! You two look very alike!"
Chang Le was taken aback.
Jiu Fanggui was also taken aback.
The two turned their heads at the same time, looked at each other, and gazed into each other's doe-like eyes, only their eye colors were different.
"The more I look at them, the more alike they seem! Especially the eyes!" Ye Xiao's suspicion grew stronger. "Why don't you two get a paternity test while you're at it?"
Chang Le secretly gasped.
If this were actually done, it would be really hard to explain.
Fortunately, Jiu Fanggui didn't want to hear his impulsive ideas: "Alright, stop messing around. It's fate that Lele and I look alike, so you don't need to worry about it. Let's get down to business first."
