Chapter 863 Extra 29: The Wife-Chasing Hell - A Mass Wedding
Alfonso's expression froze, his eyes filled with near terror.
"..."
Sinai's hand trembled, and the chopsticks almost fell to the ground.
This one sentence caused all the emotions she had suppressed for a long time to erupt, and she couldn't hold them back at all.
She looked up and found that the man's gaze was still fixed on her.
His dark green eyes locked onto her, filled with intense aggression, almost as if they wanted to devour her.
Seeing her looking over, Norton raised his chin lazily: "Isn't that right, cousin?"
Sinai stared at him for three seconds, then slowly said, "Cousins from many countries across the seven continents and four oceans can get married; it's not a strange thing."
Alfonso thought about it and agreed.
He let out a slow sigh of relief, his expression relaxing: "Mr. Lengel is really funny."
Sinai was quite upset during the meal, as Alfonso did most of the talking, with Norton only occasionally responding.
Every word stirred up her once tranquil heart, creating waves that she couldn't stop.
After finally finishing her meal, Sinai stood up, not wanting to stay a second longer: "I'm going out for some fresh air."
Alfonso called a waiter to settle the bill and immediately followed him out: "Miss Sinai, let me take you back to the experimental base. I heard that your research has reached its most critical stage these past few days."
Before Sinai could speak, a voice rang out first.
“No need for that,” Norton said casually, grasping her wrist. “I’ll take her.”
Alfonso pursed his lips: "Okay, then I'll head back now."
He always felt that something was off about Sinai's "cousin".
The way he looked at Sinai wasn't like he was looking at his cousin, but like a woman.
As a man who also admired Sinai, he sensed the aggression emanating from Norton.
The occasional sense of danger emanating from the man made Alfonso almost breathless.
Alfonso didn't have time to think too much. After saying goodbye to Sinai, he left.
"Can we stop making these kinds of jokes?" Sinai turned her head, calmed herself down, and pulled her hand back. "It's boring and ridiculous."
Perhaps to him, it was just a casual joke.
But for her, it was the sincere feeling she had buried deep in her heart.
No jokes allowed.
Norton paused, his voice hoarse: "What?"
“My assistant is a graduate of Norton University,” Sinai said in a low voice. “I heard you’re going to teach at a school next March, and I’ve only collected your rent for March.”
They were never from the same world.
There should have been no interaction between them.
Norton looked down at her: "So?"
"I'm going back to the experimental base." Sinai wrapped her coat tighter and looked away. "You should go back soon too. Take care of yourself and don't get sick again."
She turned around and left without looking back.
Norton's hand froze in mid-air, clearly not expecting Sinai's sudden estrangement.
So much so that he stood there, forgetting to follow.
The man's appearance was exceptionally handsome, and his physique was absolutely perfect.
Westerners are very open-minded; two women had already approached him to invite him for a drink, but he didn't respond.
After a very long silence, a series of urgent phone rings pulled him back from his thoughts.
Norton took out his phone, looked at it for two seconds, and finally answered the call.
"Tell me, what happened that day?" Xize demanded. "What do you mean by 'you got married before me'?"
Norton replied calmly, "The surface meaning."
"Can you explain yourself clearly?" Xize was unwilling to guess and was very curious. "I heard from the boss that you went to the alchemy world for a long time. I also remember that you had a junior sister. Is it her?"
"When are you going to bring her to meet us? I'd like to give you my opinion, brother. What if you've fooled the girl? Sigh, I'm telling you, maybe it's just wishful thinking on your part. Does she even like you?"
Upon hearing this, Norton gave a cold laugh: "Mind your own business."
He didn't give Xize a chance to speak again, hung up the phone, and added him to his blacklist.
Norton lowered his head, his thoughts becoming somewhat disordered for the first time.
He was also thinking about what went wrong when he came back this time.
He always has a lot on his mind.
He hadn't contacted Sinai for the past eight months because he didn't want her to know the dark environment he was in.
The alchemical world is far too filthy, even more chaotic than the ancient martial arts world.
But after eliminating Madon and some evil alchemists, he had no more worries.
When his feelings changed, he became confused and even wondered if he was a pervert or a beast.
So these past few days, he has been examining his feelings for Sinai.
Until finally, he was certain that he wanted someone to spend the rest of his life with.
He could only accept that this person was Sinai.
They weren't very talkative, but there was no awkwardness between them.
He had never experienced such a level of comfort and fit before.
However, it's quite difficult to guess what the little girl is thinking.
He had no idea why she suddenly stopped talking to him.
They've always gotten along like this, and Sinai has never been this angry before.
Norton had absolutely no intention of consulting or discussing anything with Caesar.
In his view, it was a complete accident that Xize was able to have a girlfriend.
The probability of this accident is even lower than that of a sow climbing a tree.
**
Sinai returned to the research institute.
She lay slumped on the table, looking listless.
She had to admit that Norton's words had completely thrown her into disarray.
This shameless old man was already a scoundrel, and now he's even more of a scoundrel.
Sinai joined a small group.
This group includes Qin Lingyu, Yu Xuesheng, Ling Mianxi, Nie Yi, Xiu, Jiang Ran, Xiu Yu, and others.
The group is usually not very active, with only a few single people occasionally popping up.
Sinai remained silent, just watching them chat.
After all, she was too busy, doing experiments every day.
Three messages suddenly popped up today.
[Xize]: That bastard told me the other day that he would get married before me. Does he have any women around him? Who will he marry?
[Xize]: When I asked him who he was, he never said. Can you believe how despicable he is?
[Xize]: I know he has a junior sister who is also an alchemist. She should be quite good-looking. What do you think? Should I go to the alchemy world to find out the truth?
Three messages instantly brought everyone who had been lurking to the surface.
[Xiu]: ...Why did you hurt me?
Jiang Ran: +1
【Xiu Yu】：+10086
[Qin Lingyan]: Waaaaah, I don't want to be associated with you bunch of single dogs, but why don't I have any girls?!
[Qin Lingyu]: Is Zhan Che finally ending his long-term single life? And they're even getting married right away? That's so fast!
[Yu Xuesheng]: He has always been very fast, after all, it is a chariot.
【Ling Mianxi】: That's perfect! @Nie Yi and I are also getting married next year. How about we have a group wedding together?
[Jiang Ran]: ? ? ? A mass wedding? Or is it a mass slaughter of dogs? Sister, I advise you to have some decency.
【Ling Mianxi】: Hehe, you're such a disgrace. Aren't you supposed to be the school bully? Didn't you also receive love letters? Oh dear, you're still a dog. Don't tell anyone I'm your sister when you get out of here.
Jiang Ran: ...
【Ling Mianxi】: @Xinai, Auntie, you're closest to him, did he tell you anything inside information? [Let me see]
When Sinai saw the third sentence from Xize, her heart felt like it had been ripped out.
She stared blankly at the word "junior sister," a strange bitterness and helplessness welling up in her heart.
After a dozen seconds, she finally mustered the strength to type two words.
【No.】
[Ling Mianxi]: That's strange. Even my aunt doesn't know. He's kept it a secret too well. I'll go and ask A Ying secretly.
Sinai didn't bother to look at what the group of people behind her were talking about.
She closed the small group chat and turned on Do Not Disturb mode.
Just as I was about to exit the chat software, another message popped up.
[Norton]: What's wrong? Are you coming home for dinner tonight? Do you want sweet and sour pork ribs?
His tone was much gentler than usual.
Sinai smiled with her head lowered.
Sure enough, he only saw her as a junior whom he wanted to take care of and cherish.
She really shouldn't have had any extra feelings for him.
I'm not angry, I just don't want you to joke around with me anymore. I won't be going back for a while, and don't come looking for me. The experiment is very important.
After replying, Sinai logged out of her account.
She put her phone aside, leaned back in her seat, and tilted her head slightly back.
Perhaps this way, tears won't fall so easily.
He's getting married.
That's fine too.
In this way, she can finally give up completely and forget him.
Sinai stared at her phone for a while, then called Charlotte over and asked her to help her buy a new phone.
Since you've decided to cut ties, then cut them off completely.
She wanted to erase every trace of Norton from her life.
After switching phones and eliminating the constant reminders from apps, Sinai felt much more relaxed, and her energy for experiments returned.
What's so great about men? She'd rather spend her whole life with a machine.
The machine won't bully her, won't make her angry, and can even cheer her up at crucial moments.
If she gets bored, she can make a robot to keep her company.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the office door was pushed open again.
"Professor Sinai," Charlotte exclaimed, breathless with excitement, "our device passed the test!"
Sinai's expression hardened, and she immediately stood up: "Let's go, let's go take a look now."
The fact that this part of the device has passed the test means that the core power system of the space carrier can be fully equipped within three years.
If a suitable outer shell material can be found, it could break out of space in no time.
Even Sinai did not expect the experiment to proceed so smoothly.
She followed Charlotte to the tenth basement level, which was the testing center and covered a vast area.
When Sinai arrived, a considerable number of researchers had already gathered around.
Upon seeing her approach, a researcher stepped forward and shook her hand: "Professor Sinai, thanks to you, this experiment has progressed so quickly."
"You're too kind." Sinai nodded slightly. "This is the result of everyone's hard work."
She took the protective suit Charlotte handed her and put it on: "Let's go in and take a look."
For researchers, caution is paramount.
She naturally had to inspect the devices she designed, ensuring there were no flaws.
The researchers were divided into two groups: Charlotte and the other group were responsible for monitoring, while Sinai went into the testing room herself.
"Excellent, very good." Someone exclaimed, "Professor Sinai's ideas and designs are very forward-thinking."
The group continued walking inside, eventually arriving at the core area.
Sinai bent down, adjusted a few numbers, and slowly nodded: "It's definitely possible. Within three years, we will be able to break out of our universe."
Scientists confirmed the existence of parallel universes a very long time ago, but they were unable to observe them due to insufficient technology.
The researchers never imagined that in their lifetimes they would not only be able to break out of the Milky Way but also visit another universe.
Everyone became excited at the thought.
"Great! That's wonderful!" An old man clapped his hands, tears welling in his eyes. "Our experimental project is finally going to succeed!"
In the past two years, they have faced considerable external criticism.
And they finally had the opportunity to tell everyone that the space carrier experiment project was not just empty talk!
“Okay.” Sinai nodded. “Let’s go out and plan our next step.”
The researchers followed behind her.
After walking a few steps, a young researcher suddenly spoke up: "Did you hear the sound of electricity?"
These words made everyone stop.
The sound of footsteps ceased, and the room fell silent, but the crackling of electrical sparks became clear.
"Sizzle, sizzle—"
Each sound vibrated in my ears.
Sinai's expression changed: "Quick! Turn off all the power and let's go!"
However, it was too late.
"Beep beep beep—"
An alarm sounded in the testing room, followed by an electromechanical tone.
"Warning! Warning! Unknown element leak!"
"Warning! Warning! An unknown element is about to cause an explosion! The estimated blast radius is one kilometer! All personnel, evacuate immediately! Evacuate immediately!"
"Countdown, 60, 59, 58..."
An extra chapter will be added this afternoon. If things go smoothly, the extra chapters will be finished this week. Those who still have monthly tickets, please vote! Monthly tickets can be used for a lucky draw during the Xiaoxiang anniversary event.
I'm finally almost finished writing! Ah!!
