Chapter 185 Why not just sleep a little longer?
Leave the villa.
Lin Xuan drove alone to the Alliance base in the suburbs.
The car drove out of the city.
The buildings along the road gradually thinned out, replaced by rolling farmland and scattered villages.
The midday sun shines on the golden rice fields, casting a warm glow.
But he wasn't in the mood to appreciate the scenery; his mind was preoccupied with what Ye Jin had said on the phone earlier.
The Xia family has sent someone—a fifth-level expert—who specifically requested his presence.
He wasn't afraid.
After all, his ability to absorb luck was very secretive.
There is no direct evidence to prove that he did it.
What he was more curious about was what Xia Yu had become.
Absorbing a little bit of luck every day shouldn't ruin a person, right?
He always thought it was a rather useless technique.
For me, it seems to only serve the function of coffee.
What impact will it have on him?
.
at the same time.
Inside the base, in Liu Bo's office.
"Old Liu, what do you mean by this? You're definitely going to protect that kid?"
on the sofa.
A middle-aged man in his thirties looked at Liu Bo with a gloomy expression.
He was wearing a black training uniform, and he was tall and strong with broad shoulders and thick fingers, clearly someone who practiced external martial arts.
He never expected that Liu Bo, who was known for never causing trouble, would...
They actually rejected my request for the sake of a newcomer!
He's using the Xia family's name to exert pressure!
"Brother Xia, what are you saying?"
Liu Bo leaned back in his chair and slowly took a sip of tea.
"I don't care about guaranteeing anything. We just checked, didn't we? Xiaoyu is just a little out of sorts, he doesn't even have a scratch! What does that have to do with my kid?"
He put down his teacup.
He picked up a few photos from the table and pushed them in front of Xia Guang.
The photo shows twin sisters, young, beautiful, and stylishly dressed, walking in and out of the hotel arm in arm with Xia Yu.
Liu Bo smiled, giving him a knowing look, and even raised his eyebrows.
"Hey, if you ask me, you should tell Xiaoyu to be more moderate lately. Young people shouldn't ruin their health like this! Even an iron body can't take it if he's constantly doing these things."
"Liu Bo!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Guang's expression darkened further.
He understood that Liu Bo was clearly trying to sabotage things.
Both of them knew the truth perfectly well.
That little thing.
For ancient martial arts practitioners.
It's impossible for him to become like Xia Yu!
But Liu Bo just wouldn't respond!
"Are you really going to do this? Don't forget, nearly 30% of Jiangzhou's resources come from my Xia family's funding. If you can't resolve this, you'll bear the consequences!"
With that, he got up, too lazy to waste any more words, and prepared to leave.
He walked to the door and suddenly pulled it open.
Outside the door, Ye Jin was standing there, her hand raised, as if she was about to knock.
She was startled when she saw the door suddenly open, then pretended to be just passing by and turned to leave.
Xia Guang sneered, glanced at her, and then turned and left.
The sneakers made a heavy sound when they stepped on the floor.
After watching him walk away, Ye Jin entered Liu Bo's office and closed the door behind her.
"How is it?" she asked.
Liu Bo shook his head and slammed the teacup down on the table, splashing the tea inside.
He rubbed his temples, looking exhausted, a far cry from his earlier nonchalant demeanor.
"Xia Guang is determined to find Lin Xuan, so this won't be easy."
"By the way, did Lin Xuan agree to go into hiding for a while?"
Ye Jin shook her head and sat down in the chair opposite her:
"He's not hiding. He said he's coming over to see what's going on."
"come over?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Bo's eyes widened, and he almost jumped up from his chair.
"How could you possibly persuade them! The Xia family was already furious. If he came over, who would care about the truth? He would just attack without warning! Isn't that ridiculous!"
Ye Jin shrugged, looking completely indifferent.
"What are you afraid of? It's just the Xia family, what are you afraid of! Besides, Lin Xuan is one of us now. You, the director of Jiangzhou, can't even protect a subordinate?"
"Alright, alright! You guys are amazing! I'm just worrying unnecessarily!"
Liu Bo was so angry that he stood up and paced back and forth in the office.
"I'm too lazy to waste my breath on you. I'm going to keep an eye on Xia Guang, make sure he doesn't actually find anything!"
After saying that, he got up and walked out, his steps hurried.
.
More than half an hour later.
Lin Xuan arrived at the base.
As soon as I entered.
He saw several researchers in white coats walking upstairs, carrying folders and hurrying along.
"Team Leader Lin!"
One of them recognized Lin Xuan and stopped in his tracks.
"Brothers, what's going on here?"
Lin Xuan asked.
"Go to the recovery room. Team Leader Xia is being tested there. Her condition isn't very good, so the director wants us to do another check."
"Team Leader Xia, Xia Yu?"
"right!"
"Come on, I'll go with you!"
Lin Xuan smiled and followed behind them.
Soon, Lin Xuan arrived at the testing room.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard Liu Bo's voice inside, which sounded somewhat helpless and perfunctory.
"Brother Xia, look, all these physical data are normal! Every single one is within the normal range. If you don't believe me, you can see for yourself."
"I'm not blind! My body is fine, but as you can see, my mental state is a complete mess!"
Xia Guang's voice was cold and harsh.
"Hey, you're feeling down, just get some more sleep, right? Everyone has insomnia sometimes, you know?
"Liu Bo?!"
Xia Guang's voice suddenly rose, clearly on the verge of exploding.
When he arrived in Jiangzhou, Benye thought that Xiaoyu was just physically weak.
But I only stayed by his side for one day.
Seeing all sorts of bizarre and unlucky things happen to him.
He was only then certain.
There's definitely something wrong!
He asked about everything that had happened around Xia Yu recently.
Finally, their gaze settled on Lin Xuan.
Although I don't know how this happened.
But his intuition told him otherwise.
has a problem!
Especially after coming here and seeing Liu Bo's appearance.
He knew it was almost certainly true!
Doorway.
Lin Xuan pursed his lips and went inside.
Looking inside, one could see Xia Yu lying unconscious on the bed in the inner room behind the transparent glass, undergoing various tests by various instruments.
Various electrodes were attached to his head and chest, connected to more than a dozen instruments, with complex waveforms and data jumping on the screens.
His face was sallow, his eyes were sunken, his lips were chapped, and he had lost a lot of weight.
Even with her eyes closed, her fatigue was clearly visible to the naked eye.
He was completely different from the spirited and arrogant young man we met in the mountains before!
Lin Xuan was startled.
My own absorption technique is actually this amazing?
We underestimated the power of this spell!
He just took a sip every day as a routine, using it as a morning coffee to stay awake, but he never expected the effect to be so dramatic.
How could Xia Yu have been drained like this in just a few days?
If you keep inhaling it for a few more days, won't it just suck it all away?
He couldn't help but glance at Xia Yu a few more times.
I silently lit a candle for him in my heart.
Brother, I'm sorry.
Goodbye, and best of luck.
