Chapter 842 Extra 08: Ying Zijing's support, Norton covers her with a blanket.
The people in Zone C also frowned in unison, and their gazes toward Sinai became more hostile.
Within a week of Sinai's arrival at the experimental base, everyone on the entire third underground floor recognized her.
Because her face was truly outstanding.
The entire experimental base was predominantly populated by Westerners; everyone loves to look at beautiful women.
Many people invited Sinai to go out, but she declined them all.
Therefore, she also left a stereotype.
Aloof, arrogant, and unapproachable.
This is everyone's conclusion about her.
But quite a few men have been trying to win his favor.
This morning, many people were quite excited when they learned that Alfonso had also extended an invitation to Sinai.
The woman also observed that Sinai had not joined any group and only had one assistant.
There were no results this week.
She's just a pretty face, nothing more.
So she didn't take Sinai's words to heart at all.
The ten people in Zone C haven't slept for a month because of this power unit.
Sinai only glanced at it, what could he possibly see?
Does he really think he's some kind of amazing scientist?
"Ms. Sinai, it's not really going to explode, is it?" Charlotte paused, then leaned closer. "They—"
He hadn't finished speaking.
"Bang!"
The sudden explosion startled people in other areas.
The explosion wasn't large, but it reduced the woman's protective suit's protective level to below 10%.
"Beep beep beep—"
The alarm went off.
At the same time, a red box popped up on the detection screen.
[Warning! Warning!]
[In ten seconds, chemical elements will leak!]
One of the team members in Zone C reacted quickly and hurriedly shut down the testing machine.
"..."
Suddenly, all around became silent.
The woman hurriedly took off her protective suit, her face ashen.
Sinai glanced at the blueprints on the table and said slowly, "Connect ports A and J, and ports B and M. Reduce the power by 100W. Good luck."
She nodded slightly and left Zone C.
The members of Group C were left looking at each other in bewilderment.
The woman's face turned from pale to white, and finally flushed red.
Charlotte followed behind Sinai, and after a long while, she came to her senses in a daze: "Teacher Sinai, you...you're amazing!"
She did graduate from Norton University with a degree in mechanical engineering, after all.
But it's not like you can just stand there and glance at it and know that the power unit's wiring is wrong.
Sinai pulled a mint from his pocket and put it in his mouth: "Basic procedure."
The moment those words left his mouth, the image of the man's dark green eyes flashed into his mind once again.
The last time he took her to the amusement park to shoot targets, she hit ten shots in three seconds.
After tossing her the biggest doll, he casually remarked, "Basic procedure."
Sinai paused for a moment, then pressed her head and sighed helplessly.
How did she end up learning bad habits from someone?
no.
She should be humble.
We can't be as flamboyant as him.
“I mean—” Sinai paused, “you’ll learn if you study more.”
“I understand, I understand.” Charlotte nodded repeatedly. “Now they know your true abilities, and they won’t gossip about you all the time.”
Gossip spreads fastest in the base, since there's not much entertainment.
"I'm going to get the food." Charlotte ran forward. "Teacher, find a table and wait, I'll be right back."
Sinai nodded: "Thank you for your help. I'll call the teacher."
Sinai is somewhat like Dean Norman.
Once the two of them get into work, they forget everything else.
"Oh dear!" Dean Norman smacked his head after receiving the call. "My disciple, I almost forgot you were coming. Move over here. I'm on the twelfth floor, and the ventilation is better here than underground."
"I don't want to move anymore, I'm too lazy."
"..."
Dean Norman was taken aback: "If anything happens, remember to tell your teacher."
"It's okay, I can handle it."
"Alright, alright, disciple, let's hold on, hold on, don't blow up the base."
"..."
After lunch, Sinai continued working until six o'clock before stretching and entering the bedroom assigned to her at the experimental base.
The bed was custom-made according to Dean Norman's requirements.
1.8m wide, velvet.
It's soft enough and rolls well enough.
Sinai lay on the bed, rubbed her lower back, and then took out her phone.
She opened the chat app and stared at the top pinned post.
They haven't seen each other for a week.
But some things still seem like yesterday, very clear.
Sinai then realized how terrible habits can be.
In just six months, someone had completely infiltrated her life.
She stared at the word "Chariot" for a long time, then unstarred it, unpinned it, and deleted the chat window.
She didn't want to put the person who always bullied her in such a conspicuous position.
She poked Norton's black profile picture: "You shameless old man."
Exhausted from the past few days, Sinai fell into a deep sleep.
Night fell silently.
After an unknown amount of time, without any sound, the door was pushed open.
A tall figure stood quietly by the door.
The lights outside the corridor blurred his features.
In the darkness, the man's dark green eyes stood out even more.
Norton has excellent eyesight and does not need any light.
He could see everything in the bedroom clearly.
He bent down, picked up the blanket that had fallen to the ground, and glanced at Sinai, who had rolled to the edge of the bed.
If she rolls one more time, she will fall to the ground.
Norton leaned forward, reached out and pushed Sinai in, then sat down on the edge of the bed.
He covered her with the blanket, and after a few seconds of silence, he raised his hand and pressed her head down, his voice cold and devoid of warmth: "You've grown up, and you don't even sleep peacefully anymore."
Sinai was still asleep, her platinum blonde hair soft.
Human memory is a strange thing.
When you get to know someone, your previous memories of her become clearer.
Their first encounter was in a dark alley next to the Sage's Abode.
Norton lowered his eyelashes, looking at Sinai curled up in a ball: "Tsk."
One child.
Norton stood up listlessly.
He came silently and left without a sound.
Sinai's biological clock is very stable.
The next morning, at 5:30, she woke up on her own.
She sat on the bed, stunned for a long while, before her thoughts gradually returned to normal.
The next second, she saw the blanket covering her.
Sinai also knew that she was a restless sleeper.
I've been sleeping on a makeshift bed in the office these past few days, and every morning when I wake up, the blanket has fallen to the floor.
Sinai rubbed her eyes, folded the blankets neatly, and went to the office after washing up.
Charlotte had just returned from buying breakfast.
She looked up and asked, "Xiaxia, did you come in and cover me with a blanket yesterday?"
"Huh? No, nothing happened." Charlotte put down her coffee. "How could I dare to go into your bedroom, teacher? Did something happen?"
Suddenly, an incredible thought popped into my head.
Sinai's expression hardened: "Do you have any surveillance cameras in the corridor? I'd like to take a look."
"Oh, yes." Charlotte took a bite of her bun. "You can log into the system with your ID number. I don't have enough permissions."
Sinai immediately pulled up all the surveillance footage from last night.
Apart from the researcher returning home late at night, there were no other figures in the surveillance footage.
She fell silent.
Given Norton's flamboyant style, he would never be one to hide his actions.
She's probably overthinking it.
How did he end up here?
**
On the other side.
Norton University.
Upon seeing the silver-haired man who suddenly appeared, the vice principal didn't want to move at all.
But he still stepped forward, more surprised than pleased: "Principal, you're finally back! Are you leaving again this time?"
"Just stopped by for a visit," Norton said casually. "I'm leaving soon; I'm heading to the Alchemy World."
Of all the people at Norton University, only Norton himself has ever been to the Alchemy World.
All the professors in the alchemy department were trained by him.
The vice principal, having heard that the world of alchemy was extremely dangerous, said, "Principal, please be careful."
Norton glanced at him: "Do you think something's going to happen to me?"
"No, no, not at all." The vice-principal began to shower him with compliments, "The principal is wise and mighty; he will surely teach those bastards in the alchemy world a lesson!"
Norton took out a few medicine bottles without even frowning: "Good to know."
Vice Principal: "..."
The principal really doesn't know what humility is at all.
"But there's something," the vice principal tentatively began. "Principal, the students from the past few years have been quite curious about you. Would you like to make an appearance and give a speech or something?"
Upon hearing this, Norton slowly raised his eyes: "You, go and erect a tombstone by the lake?"
The vice principal was baffled: "Huh? That's the center of the campus, how can you put a tombstone there? Whose tombstone is it?"
"mine."
"..."
“Tell them that if they want to see me, they can go and pray to me every day.” Norton picked up another bottle of wine and smiled. “I’ll be watching them.”
"..."
Norton turned around and lowered his eyes.
He took out a palm-sized plush keychain from his pocket, squinted his eyes, and then hung the keychain on his phone.
He then left indifferently.
Vice Principal: "???"
He thought he just saw their cold and heartless headmaster take out a plush toy.
He must be blind.
The vice principal was going to have a couple of drinks to calm his nerves.
Before he could take any action, a visitor arrived.
“Vice Principal, it’s me. I’m here to request a long leave.” Wen Tinglan’s expression was steady. “My sister’s experimental project is short-staffed, and I’m going to go and help her.”
Wen Tinglan has been in university for almost three years, and she had already completed all her credits last semester.
Norton University's academic programs are unmatched by any other university.
Over the years, the number of students who have completed their credits ahead of schedule can be counted on one hand.
“Alright!” The vice principal made a quick decision. “I will fully support your cause, and I will have the Operations Department send a special plane to take you to G country in a bit.”
Wen Tinglan's senses were very sharp: "Was someone just here?"
"Sigh, the wise and mighty principal came and went again." The vice principal slapped his thigh. "Something's wrong with him, very wrong with him."
Wen Tinglan nodded slightly.
He was also quite curious about the principal, but he had seen the photo of him from Ying Zijin a long time ago.
The operations department quickly dispatched a plane, and Wen Tinglan and several junior students who had volunteered boarded the plane together.
He flipped through the information Ying Zijin had sent him.
Midway through the flight, someone let out a scream.
Wen Tinglan looked up: "What is it?"
"Senior Wen," the boy stammered, "there's someone in the back cabin."
Wen Tinglan's expression changed, and she immediately went over.
Could it be that criminals have secretly infiltrated the plane?
However, when she saw the person inside, Wen Tinglan's forehead twitched: "...Adele."
He knew it.
Adele blinked her innocent big eyes and said softly, "Tinglan, my legs are numb."
Wen Tinglan: "..."
He resigned himself to his fate and could only reach out and lift her out of the cramped space.
The boy was 1.85 meters tall, tall and upright.
He had broad shoulders, a warm chest, and a faint scent of sandalwood wafting through the air.
It's the kind of bag that young girls love the most.
"I'll have the captain take you back in a bit." Wen Tinglan's brows furrowed slightly. "You're not allowed to come."
"Why?" Adele huffed. "I finished my credits too, even before you."
Wen Tinglan frowned, her pupils dark: "Because there will be danger."
No scientific research project is without its risks, especially large-scale experiments like spacecraft carriers.
Any nuclear radiation or leak that occurs nearby will cause damage to researchers.
Not everyone is as lucky as Wen Fengmian, who had the talent of ancient martial arts to save his life.
"So what if it's dangerous?" Adele said, unconcerned. "Look, we even blew up the entire asteroid belt. What's this?"
Wen Tinglan pressed her head: "This is different."
“Anyway, even if you take me back, I can find a way to get here.” Adele said with her hands behind her back. “You’ve never won against me.”
"..."
That's true.
Wen Tinglan finally conceded: "Fine, then you must stay with me forever."
Adele skipped and hopped forward, exclaiming, "Yay!"
The plane penetrated deep into the clouds and flew directly to Country G.
**
On the day before Lunar New Year's Eve, Ying Zijin and Fu Yunshen officially arrived in the capital.
Grandpa Zhong, Ying Tianlu, Fu Yihan, and others naturally went along as well.
The second wedding was held together with the New Year's Eve dinner and was not broadcast live.
Only those who have registered in advance can attend the wedding banquet in the lobby.
Inside the private room.
"Boss, have you decided where to spend your honeymoon?" Nie Chao shook the wine bottle. "No, no, no, you're wrong. It's your honeymoon year."
Ying Zijin put down her chopsticks: "Honeymoon?"
Nie Chao said, "Yeah, boss, you still have ninety-seven weddings to go."
Ying Zijing, who finally learned everything: "..."
She slowly turned her head and looked at the composed Fu Yunshen: "You're finished."
This scoundrel, taking advantage of her inability to predict his next move, often surprises her.
"There are only two formal events." Fu Yunshen flicked the newspaper with his fingers and ruffled her hair with his other hand. "Don't you want to go out to sea and play the pirates?"
Everyone: "..."
Playing pirates?
Ying Zijing glanced at him briefly, yawning, "But I'm not wearing a wedding dress."
"Okay, I'll put it on you."
"..."
Ying Zijing's face fell as she recalled how he had brutally shattered her entire phoenix coronet and wedding gown on their wedding night.
He makes her wear one, and then another one becomes useless.
She was more concerned about the money.
"To be clear, I didn't know about your plans." Ying Zijin leaned back in her chair. "I promised Yueyue that I would accompany her to the Luonan Ancient Tomb first."
Fu Yunshen smiled and said, "I'll listen to you."
"A honeymoon is wonderful," Grandpa Zhong said with a smile. "Ideally, the two of you go out and the four of you come back."
Ying Tianlu was stunned for the first time: "Which four people? Grandpa, are you asking Zijing to find two more? Bigamy is illegal."
"Idiot! You dead straight man!" Old Master Zhong slapped Ying Tianlu in anger. "I'm talking about my great-grandson and great-granddaughter, understand?!"
Ying Tianlu: "..."
“What Elder Zhong said is true.” Suwen smiled as well. “However, Yaoyao is still young. It’s fine to wait a few more years. There’s no rush.”
Lu Yuan's face darkened; he didn't want to speak.
Fu Yunshen lazily lifted his eyelids: "I'll try my best."
Ying Zijin: "...You can shut up for a bit."
The phone rang twice at that moment.
It is the fifth month.
[Little Apprentice]: Master, can I see you tomorrow?
Ying Zijin raised an eyebrow.
【Um. 】
[Little Apprentice]: Spinning around.jpg
[Little Apprentice]: I love you so much.jpg
[Young apprentice]: Master, I'm waiting for you!
In May, I happily went to bed with my phone in my arms.
I was awakened by a noise the next day.
She yawned as she walked out and saw a group of Luo family members gathered in the hall.
“Mr. Chuan,” Luo Xiu said with a forced smile, “you should know why we’ve come. Today, we’ll take this opportunity to wish you a Happy New Year and call off the engagement.”
Fifth Chuan's expression darkened.
He knew perfectly well what the Luo family was planning by coming to annul the engagement on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
"Grandpa," Fifth Month yawned repeatedly as she stepped forward, "What are they going to do?"
"Yueyue, why are you out here?" Fifth Chuan frowned. "Xiaohua, take your sister inside."
Fifth Flower immediately stepped forward, but was stopped by Luo Xiu raising his hand.
“Mr. Chuan, it would be even better if the parties involved were here,” Luo Xiu said. “Our Luo family will be frank. We want to annul Miss Yue’s engagement. Ziqiu already has someone he likes, so Miss Yue should not interfere.”
Before Fifth Chuan could speak, a detached voice rang out.
"Who wants to call off the engagement?"
The girl leaned against the doorway, her head slightly tilted to the side.
Her phoenix eyes were cool and indifferent.
Fifth Chuan was startled and immediately stepped forward: "Master—"
Ying Zijin glanced at him.
Fifth Chuan swallowed the rest of his words instantly.
It's still a very long chapter.
It's the end of the month, so I'm setting out a bowl to ask for votes!
Bonus chapter for each new player! =3=
