the next morning, in lu xian’s room in the chi family.
lu xian did not wake up early to prepare breakfast today. instead, she sat on her bed with a tablet in her hand, which had some information she had found.
ever since lu xian found out that chi jiao and xu ye had lied to her about something, she had begun to investigate building 117.
lu xian even spent money to hire a professional to help her with the investigation. finally, she found some clues.
she found some clues about superpowered people and kept looking through all kinds of information.
lu xian spent an entire night learning about 117 and came to the conclusion that 117 was an extremely mysterious organization. some people claimed that the intern manager of 117 near white city was a young girl.
this lead made lu xian subconsciously think of chi jiao.
somehow, lu xian had a feeling that she was somehow connected to the ability users.
although lu xian rarely mentioned this to others, she was actually very concerned about the condition of her body.
everyone around her was normal. everyone’s body would age as time passed. this was the law of nature, and no one could violate it. however, lu xian realized that she was the only one who was special. she did not age. even though she was already in her forties, she still looked like a twenty-year-old girl. in fact, when she went out with her son, everyone would mistakenly think that she was his son’s sister.
lu xian didn’t know how other people would react when they encountered such a situation, but she didn’t like it.
she wanted to find the reason why she had become like this, and not be like a monster who never grew old or got sick.
however, lu xian already knew that chi jiao and xu ye were hiding something from her. even if she went to ask them, she probably wouldn’t be able to get any truth from them.
in that case, who else could she look for?
lu xian thought for a while and a candidate suddenly appeared in her mind.
after making up her mind, lu xian turned off her laptop, got out of bed, and quickly went to the bathroom to wash her face.
by the time lu xian came downstairs, she was just in time to make breakfast. today, she made a simple western breakfast. after sending chi mingwei and quan ye to their respective jobs, lu xian finally saw chi jiao come downstairs.
chi jiao sat at the dining table, looking lazy. after lu xian brought her breakfast, she thanked her and lowered her head to eat.
lu xian had a hesitant look on her face as she stood beside chi jiao. she looked like she wanted to say something but stopped herself, as if she had something to say.
chi jiao also noticed lu xian’s expression. she asked curiously,”auntie, is there something you need me for? why do i feel like you have something to say, auntie?”
lu xian raised her hand and casually tucked her hair behind her ears. she smiled and said,”actually, it’s not a big deal. i just want to ask you, do you know where ye yichen is? i heard from little xing that ye yichen had followed me before, and it was you who helped me resolve this matter.”
chi jiao nodded and looked thoughtfully at shen xing, who was eating at the other end of the table not far away. ” ” xiao xing, didn’t i tell you not to use this kind of thing to upset auntie? ”
shen xing also realized that he had done something wrong. he carefully retracted his neck and lowered his head, not daring to look up at chi jiao.”i didn’t do it on purpose. i just accidentally let it slip that day. besides, auntie never mentioned it before, so i thought she didn’t mind.”
