She seemed to have a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder. She sat back in the same seat as before, and without even looking at Lu Chen, she just opened the book and started reading.

Damn, it's not money...

After taking a look at the thick hardcover book that looked like a medieval magic book, Lu Chen finally understood why Xia Yunian's backpack was so heavy.

There should be books inside.

If she was going to stalk me, why didn't she leave her bag in the hotel?

Afraid of losing it?

"that......"

After waiting for about a minute, Lu Chen saw that Xia Yunian was motionless and couldn't help but open his mouth.

At this moment, the latter also raised his head and continued to speak word by word:

"Give up, next stage, partial ability."

"Previous stage, ability, retention."

Give up some capabilities in the next stage.

Because the other party's words were so "succinct", Lu Chen could only guess: "You mean, if I want to keep my current abilities, then my abilities in the next stage will be weakened?"

"Yes."

"To what extent will it be weakened?"

"I don't know. There is no record."

Xia Yunian shook his head, paused for a moment, and added seriously: "No idiot has ever done this."

"..."

Who are you calling stupid?

I'm doing this for love, okay?!

Lu Chen was so angry that he rolled his eyes and didn't respond.

But if you think about it carefully, what Xia Yunian said is not wrong.

After all, judging from the current situation, the superpowers in these four stages are undoubtedly becoming more and more powerful.

Even if we put aside such vulgar goals as "getting promoted and making money", in terms of daily life alone, "predicting the future" and "stopping time" are definitely much more useful than "talking to animals".

Suppose, you are about to get into a car accident.

Stopping time can help you avoid disasters, foreseeing the future can help you avoid disasters, but talking to animals can only allow you to chat with the souls of cats and dogs after death.

Although we don’t know what the “fourth stage” is yet, it must be even more terrifying.

In short, faced with truly "extraordinary" temptations, most people will certainly not "lose the big picture for the small."

So it is normal that there is no record of this.

"Okay, forget it if you don't know."

Shaking his head, Lu Chen stopped thinking about this question for the time being.

Anyway, just know that it can be kept.

But the next second, he suddenly discovered another problem.

"Huh? That's not right."

His eyes suddenly became puzzled, and he frowned and stared at Xia Yunian: "You just said that the second stage is time suspension, but didn't you say in the morning that your ability is time reversal?"

"Pause and rewind, these are obviously not the same thing!"

"Go back, be stronger."

Xia Yunian nodded and answered calmly: "The ability can be strengthened."

Can it be strengthened?

Wow, it’s becoming more and more like the setting of a Japanese anime.

Lu Chen had some experience this time: "Does strengthening come with a price?"

"Yes."

"...No, just keep talking."

"I have already answered your question."

"..."

Okay, okay, one question and one answer, right?

Search engines are smarter than you!

Lu Chen took a deep breath: "So what's the price?"

"memory."

Although Xia Yunian has some language barriers and seems autistic, fortunately he never keeps people in suspense.

She pursed her lips lightly, and her weak voice echoed in the small room.

"Give up your memories and strengthen your abilities."

......

......

"Sorry to have kept you waiting, everyone."

High-tech Zone, Luteng Biotechnology Headquarters.

The tall secretary pushed open the door of the conference room, and then a woman in her forties, dressed in a light-colored suit, walked in.

She has shoulder-length hair, delicate makeup, and almost no wrinkles on her face because she takes good care of herself.

The reason why she is said to be in her forties is only because of her capable and mature temperament.

"Mr. Cheng."

As soon as they saw the woman coming in, Wei Changsong and the other two immediately stood up with smiles on their faces and exchanged some "business pleasantries" with Cheng Bei.

The three of them were extremely respectful, showing the humility that Party B should have.

However, Cheng Bei did not have the airs of a client. She always had a smile on her face and looked quite approachable.

only......

"By the way, I heard that your Xingyue recently produced a hero who saved people."

Sitting down at the conference table, Cheng Bei took the initiative to bring the topic to Lu Chen.

"Haha, yes, it's a young man named Lu Chen."

Wei Changsong knew that he couldn't get away with it, so he also sat down with his tie adjusted and nodded: "To be honest, Mr. Cheng, Xiao Lu is still my subordinate."

"Really? Then Manager Wei is a good teacher."

Cheng Bei smiled and asked a nonsense question: "Didn't he come today?"

"Ah, I originally wanted to bring him here to show off to you, Mr. Cheng, but he suddenly had something urgent to do today and asked for leave."

Wei Changsong smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Cheng, I will take care of the plan this time..."

"Hey, Manager Wei, sorry to interrupt you."

A soft cough was heard and Wei Changsong was interrupted by Cheng Bei before he could finish his words.

Although she said "I'm sorry", there was no embarrassment in her tone. She just shook her head calmly.

"I'm quite interested in Xiao Lu. Let's talk about the plan after he arrives."

"That's it. I have something else to do. Excuse me."

"what?"

With his mouth wide open, he looked at Cheng Bei who suddenly stood up and left without saying a word. Even though Wei Changsong was experienced, he was inevitably stunned for a moment.

No, if Lu Chen doesn’t come, we won’t even talk about it?

Afraid of grabbing the order yourself?

But I have already said that Lu Chen is my subordinate.

What's more, although this order was given to Lu Chen by Han Shuo, Cheng Bei had no reason to care about it.

For a moment, Wei Changsong's mind was full of questions, and he didn't understand why Cheng Bei attached so much importance to Lu Chen.

Fortunately, he still had his professional ethics, so after just a moment of hesitation, he immediately stood up and watched the former leave with Guan Li and Yan Dongkai.

Cheng Bei's secretary stayed.

"Manager Wei, I'm sorry, but President Cheng does have an important meeting this morning. Let's make another appointment."

Shaking his head at Wei Changsong, the secretary's tone was a little apologetic, but no one would believe this reason.

After all, Guan Li had already made an appointment for the meeting in the morning.

"Understand, understand."

Wei Changsong smiled awkwardly and closed his laptop, understanding what the other party meant: "Then let's make another appointment."

"Well, hard work."

"You're welcome..."

After coming all the way here, they were "driven away" without even saying a word about business... Wei Changsong and the other two were unhappy, but they had no choice but to pack up and leave.

As they walked out of Green Ivy's office building and into the parking lot, Guan Li couldn't help but mutter:

"Why do you think Cheng Bei has to wait for Xiao Lu to come before she is willing to talk..."

"Who knows."

Wei Changsong opened the car door, sat down in the driver's seat, and loosened his tie: "Call Xiao Lu and ask him how things are going over there and when he can come to work."

"Once it's confirmed, schedule a time with Secretary Li as soon as possible so that we can sign the order as soon as possible."

"OK......"
