1229 1229: Leaving Some Pride For His Brother
This is because Zhan Lichuan never liked giving his enemies a second chance.
He could play nice with his enemies, but once the battle started, it would be life or death.
Du Yanzheng was the only one whom he showed mercy.
However, it was fortunate that he did so. Otherwise, he would have killed his own brother.
Before learning the truth that Du Yanzheng was his elder brother, he already had a peculiar emotion in him when they first met.
Now that he was hearing how Du Yanzheng had been caring for him when they were young, the feeling that he once had now completely filled his heart.
Other than letting go of Qianqian, Zhan Lichuan would be willing to do anything for his elder brother, just like how his brother had been loving and protected him when they were younger.
So, he would never admit that he was as powerful as his brother.
He didn’t mind admitting defeat when it came to their martial arts skills.
“But… I fought with you in the estate and you won. How is that possible?!”
Seeing how his brother was feeling unhappy about it, Zhan Lichuan couldn’t bring himself to say that they actually had similar SE2 genes. Plus, his wife had been feeding him large cups of water that were different from the water found on earth. This was why his body was now different from how it used to be.
However, Zhan Lichuan was worried that his elder brother might feel inferior once he told him about this. Therefore, he decided to hide the truth.
“When we were fighting that night, you were distracted, Plus… I might not be as powerful as you, but I am a quick learner. Didn’t you notice how I could only defend myself against you in the beginning? I learnt your skills during the fight and then retaliated with your own skills. I even got to find your weakness from it as well.”
So… Compared to his younger brother, he would never be better.
Du Yanzheng couldn’t help but laugh.
“It’s great that you’re better than me. I am happy to hear that. This way, I would never have to worry about how I won’t be able to protect you.”
With that itself, Zhan Lichuan realized that Du Yanzheng’s love for him was much deeper than the one that he had for his elder brother.
Instantly, Zhan Lichuan couldn’t help but feel that he was being a little petty.
“By the way, do you know anything about the Hess family? Have you ever done a background check on them?”
Zhan Lichuan quickly changed the topic.
Du Yanzheng nodded his head, “My grandfather always knew that our father was working at the laboratory. So, after our father’s death, we have been trying to get more information about the experiments done by the Hess family. I have sent a total of 27 experts to their laboratories, but during all these years, I didn’t get much information about them.
“I know that they work closely with the Medical Federation, and other than that, they have business deals with most of the top businesses around the world. They are involved in multiple experiments as well.
“My intel told me that the Hess family doesn’t only have one laboratory. There are already about 288 of them underground.
“They have a special train located in their base, and there are a total of 16 stops. There are multiple platforms throughout, and there should be a laboratory at each platform. Each of these represent the businesses that they own.
“No matter which station they were at or what they were doing, it will be tracked. This is because most of the men that I sent were experts and none of them could actually fight. On one hand, we couldn’t break through their fire wall, and on the other, once these experts got exposed, they would not be able to escape, as they couldn’t fight. If we don’t hack into that place forcefully, we will never be able to do anything to them.”
