The Genius Sweetheart of the Abstinent Goblin Boss

Zeng Nian couldn't help but frowned in confusion.

How is this going?

How could he die like this?

At that moment, a subordinate nearby, suppressing his discomfort, handed the autopsy report to Zeng Nian with both hands.

Zeng Nian took it calmly and opened it to read.

A sudden increase in brain pressure leading to a spontaneous explosion?

"How is this possible?" Zeng Nian was so absurd that he laughed out loud.

I have never heard of a human brain exploding on its own in my life, let alone several people exploding at the same time.

He casually threw the autopsy report back to his men beside him and said, "Go check it again."

"Yes, General!" The subordinate immediately went to do the job after receiving the order.

Zeng Nian once again glanced at the bodies in front of him, and habitually rubbed the rare and dazzling blood-red camel bone ring on his thumb with his index finger.

Then, he turned around and walked out, returned to Zeng Yan's side, and patted Zeng Yan's shoulder:

"Don't be afraid, Ayan. Dad is here."

"Dad..." Zeng Yan couldn't hold back any longer, and big tears fell out.

"Silly boy, why are you crying again?" Zeng Nian wiped his tears with a smile: "It's okay, there must be a reason for this. Dad asked them to check it out. Don't be afraid, son."

Zeng Yan nodded awkwardly.

Zeng Nian took the opportunity to sit down next to him and said, "Tell Dad, what mission are they going to carry out?"

Upon hearing this, Zeng Yan was stunned and his body suddenly straightened.

They must not let their father know that they almost leaked the secrets of the 'Tyrant' plan.

"It's just... to infiltrate the South Asian underground organization." Zeng Yan lied as calmly as possible.

Hearing this, Zeng Nian frowned and thought: "South Asian underground organization? Then I have some clues."

Zeng Yan's eyes turned in panic: "What does father mean?"

Zeng Nian smiled and said:

"My insider said that they are developing some kind of brain crystal recently. They say it can control brain waves or something. It seems that these are all unreliable things. They are really mind-blowing."

Zeng Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "So that's how it is..."

"Okay! If you don't feel well today, go home and rest!

You, don't stay in the barracks all the time. You should spend more time with Lianlian. Your aunt Mei still wants to hold her grandson."

Zeng Nian laughed and patted his legs before standing up, leaving a sentence:

"Dad has to go back to accompany his wife first."

Then he left with a smile.

Zeng Yan watched Zeng Nian's back and then stood up.

Even though he had recovered, the muscles in his legs were still noticeably weak.

"Captain..." The subordinate dared to speak at this time: "Should we... continue to investigate that professor?"

Hearing this, Zeng Yan's eyes were instantly filled with fear again.

There must be some incredible power behind that professor.

They saw the other side using methods that were simply beyond human power to kill their people, and even dumped the bodies in front of the gate of their military camp.

It is clearly a provocation and a warning to them.

Moreover, the other party actually had the ability to avoid the thousands of cameras around the military camp and did not leave any records.

Terribly powerful...

Zeng Yan swallowed hard, trying to suppress his fear, and said tremblingly:

“… Stop it first.”

"Yes..." the subordinate replied, and heaved a sigh of relief.

Ji Ran’s research project officially started.

She spent the next month in the lab, concentrating fully on her research.

Chi Tao looked at her every day, but felt inexplicably worried.

Although Professor Ji used to work on research projects day and night, often forgetting to eat and sleep.

But this time... I always feel like she's focusing a little too much...

I almost never have a fixed sleeping time every day. When I am extremely sleepy, I will sleep for a few dozen minutes. The same goes for eating. I will only sit down and eat a few bites when I am extremely hungry.

Even the team of biologists assigned to her by the institute became her audience.

Because no one can keep up with her speed.

In the past, because she didn't want to do some of the simple, tedious work herself, she would delegate it to others and be lazy herself, so everyone could barely keep up.

This time, no matter how big or small the task was, no matter how basic the work was, she did it all...

That day, Chi Tao packed up some of Ji Ran's favorite food from the food stalls, put it in the office, and planned to go to the laboratory to call Ji Ran.

Just as I walked to the door of the laboratory, I found that Ji Ran was in a trance and almost fell down.

"Professor Ji!" Chi Tao ran over to support her in panic, feeling extremely distressed:

"You haven't slept for more than 30 hours. How can you do this? Come with me and have some rest!"

Ji Ran shook his head weakly, turned around and prepared to continue working.

“No!!” Chi Tao was strong for once, but tears were already filling her slightly red eyes: “Come with me to eat first!!”

Having said that, she forcefully grabbed her hand and led her away without waiting for Ji Ran's consent, first to the disinfection room, where she scraped off her white coat, squeezed alcohol gel on her hands and rubbed them violently.

Then he took her to the office.

Ji Ran was manipulated by her with an expressionless face the whole time, and she really didn't have the strength to resist.

Soon, Chi Tao stuffed her into the chair in the office and opened the delicious food stall takeout.

The fragrance filled Ji Ran's nostrils, but still did not arouse her appetite at all.

Chi Tao didn't care whether she had an appetite or not, and opened the takeout boxes one by one. No matter what, she had to eat two bowls of rice today!

"Look at you, it's just a research! Do you have to work so hard? You don't eat or sleep for a day, do you want to become an immortal or something? Even Einstein didn't work as hard as you! What are you working for?"

Chi Tao complained distressedly, becoming angrier and angrier the more she spoke.

Hearing this, Ji Ran couldn't help but smile, but that smile was so bitter.

She didn't want to fight to the death, but whenever she stopped, she would think of that cold man.

She didn't know what was wrong with her.

I think of him even when I sleep.

I think of him while eating.

Even when I'm doing nothing, my mind is full of him...

It was his dark red eyes, his magnetic voice, and his cold touch.

Only when she is working can she think only about work and block him out temporarily.

What can she do?? She is going crazy...

Chi Tao didn't care whether she responded or not, and continued to introduce the dishes she had carefully selected:

"Look, spicy spareribs. Didn't you say this is your favorite?"

Hearing this, Ji Ran sighed helplessly and looked at the ribs that looked and smelled great. The crispy and fragrant skin was visible to the naked eye, and the embellishment of red bell peppers and green chopped green onions looked really delicious.

Look at Chi Tao's expectant eyes again, just like the look her grandmother gave her when she was holding the plastic box of ribs.

Ji Ran picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of pork ribs and started chewing.
