Chapter 785: Uncle’s Identity Revealed, Si Fuqing’s Network (1)
Evolved beings possessed abilities far surpassing those of ordinary people, but their internal system had regressed to a primitive state where the strong preyed on the weak.
Every day, there were outbreaks of slaughter.
Within the Evolved Being Alliance, power struggles occurred day and night, with casualties being considered a minor issue.
Due to the presence of the Supernatural Management Bureau in Great Xia, very few evolved beings dared to harm ordinary people. Compared to the Western Continent and Eastern Mulberry, it was relatively peaceful.
Yet, there were still those with malicious intentions, eager to stir up new chaos.
“It shouldn’t be the three major families,” Feng San said, walking beside Yu Xiheng. He had a fair understanding of the distribution of power among the evolved beings. “They have no need, nor do they care, to do such things.”
“Indeed,” Yu Xiheng acknowledged calmly. “Only smaller families would seek alternative methods.”
Feng San nodded.
Unfortunately, they had run into an iron wall.
Thankfully, Miss Si was unharmed; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Feng San couldn’t hold back and finally asked a potentially dangerous question, “Brother Nine, why did you hug Miss Si just now?”
Yu Xiheng’s hand paused, and he looked up.
His gaze was devoid of warmth, neither joyful nor angry. His light amber eyes flickered slightly, their depth indiscernible.
He simply looked at Feng San silently.
Feng San was startled and immediately stood up straight. “I’ll get right to work.”
He quickly left, almost in a hurry.
Yu Xiheng remained standing quietly.
Meanwhile, in the bedroom.
Si Fuqing lay flat on her bed, still awake, staring at the ceiling. She realized she was having a rare bout of insomnia.
The lingering warmth of those arms still seemed to cling to her body. The scent of osmanthus on a moonlit night lingered in her sleeves, as if transporting her to a world of ancient fragrance.
She could feel his chest rising and falling, his heartbeat irregular.
But the Yu Xiheng she remembered was always calm and composed.
It seemed nothing could shake him.
His emotions were never displayed on his face, his tone always moderate.
His control over his emotions was beyond what any human should possess.
Si Fuqing sighed.
She had made the boss angry again. How should she make it up to him this time?
Little Bai extended its paw to poke her shoulder, whining softly.
“What do you know?” Si Fuqing raised her eyelids. “This is because the boss and I have a deep bond. We’re like brothers. Every time I finish a fight with that person surnamed YU, we hug and check whose body is stronger.”
Little Bai: “…”
Is that really the same thing?!
And who hugs others to check body strength?
Only this dog owner would do such a thing, right?
“My relationship with the boss is purely business. You’re my pet. How can you be like those keyboard warriors online who make up rumors?” Si Fuqing picked Little Bai up, her fox-like eyes narrowing. “Don’t use your filthy thoughts to sully the pure relationship between me and the boss.”
Little Bai: “…”
This relationship is different.
It was disappointed in its owner.
Seeing its head drooping sadly, Si Fuqing kindly fed it a golden brick. “Be good. Don’t disturb Daddy’s sleep. Daddy gets grumpy when he wakes up.”
With that, she rolled over and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Little Bai lay down, tugging at its own fur with its small paws, feeling very melancholic.
But then it thought, considering its owner’s past environment, no one had taught her anything about these matters.
She knew even less than it did.
Her future happiness rested on its small shoulders!
Little Bai patted its own chest, feeling very proud.
It would become a proactive wingman!
Si Fuqing slept until the afternoon, regaining her usual lively energy.
Nian Yi’an had also woken up and was eating a marinated chicken leg.
Seeing Si Fuqing come out, he immediately stood up. “Sister Qingqing.”
“Sit, sit,” Si Fuqing said, sitting across from him and taking a chicken leg for herself. “Did you call uncle?”
“I did,” Nian Yi’an nodded. “Dad has finished his work and will be back tomorrow morning.”
There was no need for him to ask why Nian Tingchu, despite his great abilities, had led such a poor life.
With Nian Yi’an’s intelligence, combined with the events of the previous day, he could naturally deduce how difficult Nian Tingchu’s life had been over the years.
The world of evolved beings was indeed dangerous.
“Alright, since you’re now part of the evolved beings’ circle, let’s start with an introduction to its power structure,” Si Fuqing said, taking out a pen and paper. “First, there’s the Evolved Being Alliance, the gathering place for evolved beings worldwide.”
