Chen Yin worked hard in the laboratory to research the repair medicine he bought from Yaoyue Country. The medicine could effectively repair serious diseases such as internal bleeding and congenital deficiency. The price of one bottle was as high as tens of millions, and the actual cost was hundreds of thousands, leaving a huge profit margin. It was sold for five million per bottle in Yaoyue Country, but it would cost a huge amount of money for the orcs in MSI Country to use it, so there was no market for it.
I studied hard for a whole day, tried to replicate it, deciphered a quarter of the ingredients, wrote and sketched, and the day passed in a flash.
Shen Yin stopped working until he felt hungry. He took off his mask and walked out of the laboratory door. The sky outside was pitch black.
To develop psychotropic drugs, Chen Yin would choose a private villa in the suburbs, but to develop such unimportant drugs, he would choose to develop them in the palace.
The palace was brightly lit, with waves of patrolling guard robots, and the luxurious environment was cold and solemn.
Walking down the stairs, he unexpectedly saw a familiar figure. Chen Yin glanced sideways and watched him approach with a gloomy expression.
The man was dressed in a neat military uniform and had a tall stature. Standing in front of me gave people a sense of oppression. His model-like face was flawless, handsome and aggressive, but the complexity in his eyes at this moment buried everything, making him look gloomy.
"Your Highness, would you please have a word?"
It was Huo Yao, whom I had just met yesterday.
Shen Yin thought of what Huo's parents had done, and felt disgusted and unhappy. She patiently said, "Just say what you want to say."
He was not surprised by her attitude, and a self-deprecating arc appeared on the corner of his mouth. If it were him, being abandoned and turned to his mortal enemy at such a dark moment, the insult and betrayal brought about by it would be enough to annihilate everything. Not taking revenge and resentment was already magnanimous, and asking others to help was too much to ask.
Huo Yao is not the Holy Father, and he has no right to ask Chen Yin to be one.
"I'm here to apologize to you on behalf of my parents. They went to Huo Xun to ask for help, which made things difficult for him and also caused trouble for you. I didn't know they did that. Now that I know about it, I've warned them not to do that."
Huo Yao felt helpless, knowing that his family owed Huo Xun. He never interfered in his father's emotional and personal affairs. He was brought up by his father and entrusted with important tasks since he was a child. He grew up in the military district and had limited time at home. He did not have much affection for his younger brother Huo Xun, but if any servant in the family was in trouble, he would not hesitate to help.
As a favored child of heaven who is loved by everyone, how could he understand the helplessness behind those secrets?
But he would never have thought that one day he would fall into such a helpless situation as he is now, becoming a victim of politics and a reward for the empress to appease Shen Qiangwei.
The Huo family is powerful, and the empress also intends to suppress their arrogance. When Marshal Huo returns triumphantly, the empress is generous with rewards, but she will not be lenient in suppressing them either.
This time, the Huo family was not unable to refuse, but was helpless.
Chen Yin raised her eyebrows and said noncommittally, "I know about this. You don't have to take it to heart. I wouldn't take it seriously even if I heard about it. If it didn't involve Huo Xun, I wouldn't be interested in getting involved at all."
These words were like a thorn piercing Huo Yao's heart.
In Shen Yin's eyes, Huo Yao was the bright moon in the sky, and Huo Xun was just a defective substitute, whom she simply disdained.
Now their identities and status have been reversed. Huo Xun, an A-level psychic who has been ignored since childhood, actually occupies a place in Shen Yin's heart, and he has become an outsider.
This feeling is really unpleasant.
Huo Yao laughed at himself, feeling very uncomfortable. If someone had told him that this scene would happen a year later, he would have thought that person was crazy.
Fate plays tricks on people. Even Huo Yao sometimes makes mistakes. The choice has been made, and the damage caused is irreparable. He has never experienced such a setback before.
"That's good."
He lowered his eyelashes, his eyes swept across Chen Yin's expressionless face, his heart aching, and he said: "I was sorry for you, back then..."
When Shen Yin was at her lowest point, in the most difficult and painful time, their family chose to add insult to injury and even passed on the humiliation to Shen Qiangwei.
A belated apology.
He has always been high and mighty, and making him bow his head is more painful than killing him. But when this moment really comes, he feels relieved.
The wedding banquet is the day after tomorrow, everything is a foregone conclusion.
Chen Yin frowned, looked at him coldly, and suddenly smiled, "It's human nature, there's nothing to be sorry about. I was cruel and ugly at the time, and I was hated by everyone. Even my biological parents looked down on me. It's human nature for you to dislike me. But since you chose Chen Qiangwei, it's not very decent to keep jumping back and forth."
If the Huo family wants to have the best of both worlds, they have to pay a price.
Huo Yao was stunned, frowned, lowered his head and said nothing, clenching his palms.
Huo Yao had never been interested in matters of the heart, and when he learned that he was going to marry the evil female princess, his pride and dignity could not stand it.
As for Chen Qiangwei, that was the arrangement of his parents. He had to choose between the two, and he agreed without thinking.
All males in MSI cannot escape marriage. No matter how high their status, how brave they are on the battlefield, or how many achievements they have made, they have to worry about marriage.
There are very few females who can match Huo Yao, so he has no choice.
He would not say that he regretted it. He shouldn't have been so confused and indifferent to matters of the heart, which led to such a mistake and made him regret it for the rest of his life.
Huo Yao didn't want to explain, nor could he say it. No matter how much he said, it would be useless.
He nodded, "Your Highness is right. Ultimately, this matter is the fault of our Huo family. No matter how Shen Qiangwei treats me, it is our own retribution. It is not my intention to implicate you and Huo Xun for no reason. I'm sorry."
He let out a sigh and finished speaking. Without even glancing at Chen Yin's face, he bent down, bowed slowly, and turned to leave. His tall and strong figure blended into the dark night, gradually moving farther and farther away. In front of him was a magnificent palace, magnificent and gorgeous. Brilliant lights illuminated the road ahead, but the endless darkness around him was destined to never be completely dispelled.
Chen Yin frowned, looking very unlucky, and felt an inexplicable sense of irritation in his heart.
It's not that she feels sorry for Huo Yao, but her mind cannot accept such a marriage deal. The Huo family wants it all, and Huo Yao is innocent in it, but Chen Yin can't forget the humiliation of being broken off.
Even if she had not experienced it personally, the remaining pain, humiliation and heart-wrenching pain of the original owner were still engraved in her bones and merged with her soul, making it unforgettable.
Chen Yin stood there, hesitating, with a terrible headache.
…
…
"Hey, Xiaoyin, how come you have time to come and keep me company today? I usually see you so busy, and you've been spending the whole day in the lab again?"
She sent a message to Quan Yue and the others, telling them that she was having dinner at the Empress's place. Chen Yin appeared in the Peony Palace. The Empress was sitting at the table, preparing to have dinner. When she saw Chen Yin, she raised her eyebrows, smiled, and hurriedly asked the servants to bring another set of bowls and chopsticks.
Chen Yin sat down in front of her, took the bowl and chopsticks handed to her by the servant, and faced the simple five dishes and one soup on the table.
"I thought the Queen Mother was so busy every day that she only cared about drinking nutrient solution."
