Chapter 105: Do You Want to See?

The three of them each tidied up their appearance, acting as if nothing had happened earlier.

The two with thinner skins were still blushing.

Meanwhile, Lin Jiu was smiling shamelessly.

She smiled innocently, so much so that anyone who didn’t know her would think this black-haired girl was a pure and kind person.

But that wasn’t the case…

Hua Jianxi had already been frightened by Lin Jiu’s “innocent” smile, and the lollipop she had been holding in her mouth fell out.

At that moment, cold sweat began to form on her back.

She shivered inwardly and silently vowed not to bother Ling Ling for the time being.

It seemed that the incident involving Lady Ye and Ling Ling had hurt Lin Jiu quite a bit.

She suddenly felt that the other party was secretly glancing at her out of the corner of her eye.

Hua Jianxi quickly picked up the lollipop and put it back in her mouth, resuming a joyful smile like a Joker.

‘Ling-chan, Ling-chan, when will you understand Xiao Jiu’s good intentions for you…’

Ling Ling sneezed.

She suddenly felt that someone was talking about her behind her back.

However, she didn’t need to guess who it was.

She glanced out of the corner of her eye at Hua Jianxi, who was eating a lollipop beside her.

Hua Jianxi again felt a strange gaze on her…

And at that moment, “Uranus” coughed and slowly began to speak:

“So… what were you just talking about?”

Ye Fengxue raised her hand to tidy her slightly messy hair, then forcibly put on her young lady airs, crossed her arms, and said with a natural expression:

“Hmph, Teacher, don’t misunderstand.”

“This young lady was just asking if this idiot was hurt.”

Ye Fengxue spoke with great righteousness, as if she wasn’t the one who had been playing “bumper car” battle earlier.

However, her flushed cheeks and red ears completely gave her away.

As for Lin Jiu, she just said she was messing around normally with Onee-chan.

However, “Uranus” still knew what they had been doing earlier.

She wouldn’t actively expose the relationship between the girls; she just casually scolded them a few times, then said she wanted Ling Ling to stay because she had something to discuss.

Ling Ling sent the others away, and at the same time, “Uranus” also called Surtr away.

In the venue with only the two of them left.

“Uranus” casually found a chair and sat down.

Her little feet dangled in the air.

She said calmly:

“Ling Ling, do you know who messaged me earlier?”

Ling Ling frowned.

Although she already had an answer in her heart, she still wasn’t quite sure if it was that woman.

After all, that woman could essentially be called their mother.

However, her attitude toward her and Xiao Jiu was hard for her to evaluate.

Hui Yin neither treats them as her daughters nor as complete experiments.

Instead, it was a very twisted emotion mixed between the two.

At this moment, “Uranus” looked at the other’s expressionless face but could still detect a hint of conflicted emotion from those half-closed eyes.

“Alright, no need to guess.”

“It was Hui Yin.”

“Although Teacher has some conflicts with Hui Yin, for your sake and Jiu’s, she and I can still cooperate well.”

After hearing these words, Ling Ling suddenly felt that the amount of information was a bit overwhelming.

She thought silently for a moment before slowly speaking:

“…What did she say?”

“Uranus” thought for a moment, considering how to condense that large pile of incomprehensible technical jargon and intelligence information into simple words to tell her little niece.

She pressed a finger to her lips, and finally gave up on cramming all that complicated stuff into Ling Ling’s head.

Then she slowly began to speak:

“Um, that Siren kid already told you about ‘The Correct Person’ and the Ye Family Database, right?”

“Mm, she said a little.”

Ling Ling replied slowly.

Actually, regarding the Ye Family Database, she hadn’t actively asked Ye Fengxue about it.

Although she was curious about what was recorded inside.

But at her current level, she didn’t have the hacking skills to crack it.

She had also asked Hua Jianxi.

Hua Jianxi also said she was helpless against such a prehistoric civilization relic…

“Mm, since you know about it, then Teacher will get straight to the point.”

“Actually, the Ye Family Database was something I, your teacher, gave to the Ye family about one or two hundred years ago.”

“What’s inside is related to you two sisters.”

After saying this, “Uranus”‘s expression suddenly became somewhat serious.

“Although I, your teacher, more or less know what’s inside.”

“But…”

“I can’t open that database either.”

“And the method to open it is in Hui Yin’s hands.”

“That woman Hui Yin wants me to bring you two to see her, and also bring the Ye Family Database.”

“And she’s already set the location, at a milk tea shop near our school this weekend.”

Ling Ling was silent for a long while.

The amount of information the other party had told her was really too much.

However, what concerned Ling Ling more was “Uranus”‘s expression when she said these words.

Hui Yin actively asked to meet her.

For that perverted experiment fanatic, this was practically unheard of.

What could it be…

That could make this second seat of the Knights of the Round Table, who has lived for who knows how long, also start to hesitate.

“You don’t want me to go?”

Ling Ling asked directly.

“Uranus” blinked, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

She hadn’t expected Ling Ling to catch her implied meaning.

“Mm, you caught me.”

“I really don’t want you and Jiu to go see her.”

“However…”

“Whether to go see her is your choice.”

“I don’t have much right to interfere with your decision.”

Ling Ling thought for a long time.

She was also undecided about this matter.

She decided to wait until she got home to discuss it with Xiao Jiu.

“Mm… I’ll think about it.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Ling Ling stood up from her seat.

“Teacher, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be going now.”

Then, she walked toward the entrance of the venue.

However, just as she was about to exit, she suddenly remembered someone who might know something about the prehistoric civilization.

She awakened “Ling Shi” in her mind.

“Mm? What is it, Lord Contractor?”

Ling Shi’s voice still had that annoyingly playful tone.

However, Ling Ling could tell it was unusually tactful today.

During her conversation with “Uranus”, this one had rarely not interrupted, instead staying quiet and playing dead in her mind.

“Um…”

Ling Ling asked “Ling Shi” in her mind:

“How much do you know about the prehistoric civilization?”

“Well… my dear Lord Contractor.”

“There are some things I can’t say easily.”

“However…”

“I’ll tell you as much as I know.”

“Speak.”
