Chapter 61: What's with that look in your eye

Chapter 61

No one knows how Yan Hualin spent the night under the interrogation of his parents and brother. The next morning, Mr. Hualin went out to talk business as usual.

It can only be known from Yan Huaxin’s inquiries to Shi Nian the next day that his brother probably didn’t say anything about Lu Bo Ting’s feelings towards Shi Nian.

The reason is that what Yan Huaxin asked was: “You met my brother yesterday. How was he? Wasn’t he very domineering? “

“Yes, very domineering.” Shi Nian said, “Your villa is quite nice. There is a swimming pool at the back. Your cousin Lu Bo Ting even went swimming twice in the middle of the night. “

Yan Huaxin: “As for my brother, he’s always been serious. But he doesn’t speak badly, does he? “

“No, I don’t think so.” Shi Nian recalled, and finally said, “I’m sure I didn’t dislike him yesterday, so I don’t think he said anything unpleasant.”

“By the way, the food he ordered was good, and he even treated me to that Agave crab. But unfortunately, I can’t enjoy it. That taste, tsk. “

The two of them were chatting, and Yan Hualin over there took advantage of the absence of others, to talk to Lu Bo Ting.

“I will help you hide your crush from your family. Doing this is already a disservice. But come on, you can’t be afraid of chasing a boy, can you?

Lu Bo Ting frowned at him and said, “What are you talking about? And what about you? Wasn’t my mother asking about why you weren’t looking for a date last time? “

Yan Hualin simply ignored him.

What a broken cousin. To hell with helping your love life!

And did he say it’s not a crush? What of that jealousy that made him confiscate a small bag given by a female classmate, eat someone’s leftover food, and let someone pinch your arm?

After breakfast, Shi Nian hung up the call with Yan Huaxin because it was time for them to go. The ticket for the spaceship was slated for an an hour later, and if they didn’t leave now, they would miss the ship.

After all, it was necessary to board the ship half an hour earlier. Fortunately, it was not far from the port, so they would be on time.

Wu Chao Yi and Bai Zihan’s group must have left the previous night or they were not ready to go back yet, as they were not seen on the return airship.

Instead, they saw another person.

“Is that Zhou Lao?” Xue Chi said, with some uncertainty.

Shi Nian followed his gaze and looked back. He saw a man who looked like he was in his fifties. At fifty, this could be considered middle-aged with a life expectancy of a hundred upwards per capita, but his hair was already graying. He was wearing large sunglasses and a mask, and one couldn’t quite make out his face.

“You recognised him even like that?” Shi Nian asked in amazement.

Adjutant Xue said, “Zhou Lao was the most talented mecha master back then, but it’s a pity..“

Shi Nian looked up at him, “Pity?”

“Unfortunately, later on, there was a problem with his spiritual power. Mecha manufacturing is delicate, and when there is a problem with the spiritual sea, you can no longer do this business.” Adjutant Xue said, bringing it up, “Of course, the same is true for pharmacy. You should know it well as a pharmacy student.“

Like Shi Nian, someone who could achieve his level with D-level mental power would be regarded as a rare genius in a century, but Mr. Zhou was not such a genius before. He had S+ mental power, which was one of the best at that time.

“Once his mental power was gone, the many forces vying for him at that time backed off.” Xue Chi said, “It was said that this matter was extremely controversial at the time, and there were many rumors, both true and false, indistinguishable from each other.”

Lu Bo Ting said, “It was the Wu family who did it.”

He was a marshal, and although he had not yet been born when this incident happened, if someone like Xue Chi had heard about it and could recognise the person when they were wrapped up like this, naturally Lu Bo Ting would not be ignorant of it either.

He knew more than Adjutant Xue. After all, back then, Old Marshal Lu was in his prime…

“Such a mecha builder was wanted by everyone, with the Wu and Yue families competing the hardest. And at that time, the Yan family happened to have something going on that they couldn’t care about, and my father was always on the battlefield, so he didn’t get involved. “

As for the others, they were not as powerful as the Wu and Yue families. The two families fought fiercely, and the Yue family won in the end.

Lu Bo Ting said, “But it was at this time that Old Man Zhou’s mental power suddenly had problems. The ostensible reason was that his classmates were jealous of him, so they messed with his diet.“

Shi Nian said, “But in reality, that classmate was instructed by the Wu family to destroy him because they couldn’t get him.“

Lu Bo Ting nodded.

“So that mecha genius who claims to be a fan of yours will either not be found by anyone, or he will have to rush to join a power and be protected.”

Lu Bo Ting said, “But it seems that he is still very smart. As soon as things got big, he immediately went offline and disappeared, until now no one could find him.“

Shi Nian thought to himself, “I’m not scared, I just don’t want to be exposed.”

He glanced over at the old man, Zhou, and found a young man in a gentleman’s way beside him.

“Zhou Xinxiang?” Xue Chi immediately said, “Didn’t he say he was going home on leave to accompany his father on some business? This…“

Obviously, that is his father.” Shi Nian looked at him.

It was rumoured that after that incident, he would no longer accept food and water from strangers at will, but at this time he did receive food from Zhou Xinxian.

The two men were not exactly close to each other, but they definitely did not look like strangers either.

Adjutant Xue looked a little shocked, “I didn’t expect that he was Mr. Zhou’s son.”

Shi Nian: “You know each other?”

Xue Chi nodded, “But not too well. He was in the same academy as me, but he studied command. His grades ranked first in the first school, and he got in touch with the marshal early on. After graduation, he logically joined the Lu family army, and is now a major general. “

Oh, someone under Lu Bo Ting’s command!

“I knew he was on leave this time, saying he was accompanying his father on some business, so I didn’t ask about it, but I didn’t expect to see him here.”

“I don’t know why they are going to the main star, but I think they came for the Space Stone!” Xue Nian suddenly spoke, “They also went to yesterday’s auction, sitting in a corner, not too inconspicuous. Maybe you guys didn’t notice. “

Xue Chi said in shock, “No way! He was interested in the Space Stone? But isn’t Elder Zhou incapable of doing so… “

“Who knows.“

Shi Nian withdrew his gaze, but the other party was alert. To be precise, the Major General named Zhou Xinxiang was alert and had looked over.

So soon, both parties went to a side dining room and sat down around a table.

Old Mr. Zhou also took off his sunglasses and mask and looked at Lu Bo Ting: “Marshal Lu, how is your father?”

“Travelling around the planet, his days are still pretty good.” Lu Bo Ting said.

Shi Nian took a look at this one, looked at that one, and thought, “This man still has a friendship with Old Marshal Lu?

He found that Old Master Zhou had already looked at him, and he said with a smile, “Back then, after my accident, the people surrounding me all scattered. It was not easy to cure my illness and ensure my subsequent life. It was Old Marshal Lu who helped me out. “

Xue Chi did not know that there was still this past story, and immediately looked at Zhou Xinxiang at his words. Back then, there were quite a few forces that had solicited Zhou Xinxiang, but the other side had baulked at all and recognised the Lu family. So this was the reason!

As what happened to me back then has proven, hesitation will never let you pick a better one, it will only plunge you deeper into the whirlpool. Old man Zhou said, “Today’s imperial power struggle is better than back then, and there are no conditions for one to pick up safely… not to mention that after what happened back then, I still have more trust in the Lu family.“

“This is true.” Xue Chi thought to himself. It is a little better for those ordinary types. But once one is labelled  a genius, if there is no power behind them, they will inevitably be fought over by all parties, by which various means are used in the competition. So it’s better to fall on one side early on.

Shi Nian, too…

He obviously stepped on Lu Bo Ting’s boat early, but when his talent in pharmacy was exposed, it wasn’t as if no one had ever thought about it, but it was only the Bai family that made a fool of themselves.

It just so happened that the Bai family was a special situation, so they left it up to Shi Nian to deal with it, but the others were stopped by Lu Bo Ting earlier on.

However, Xue Chi suddenly remembered, “When Major General Zhou joined the Lu family army, they should have known to check on kinship!”

“Back then, I didn’t really want to be bothered by previous matters, so I changed my name, and it was still Old Marshal Lu who helped.” Old Mr. Zhou said, “Things were already done in great detail, and then I learned a bit of information technology and enhanced them on my own, so that I wouldn’t be found easily.”

“After all, I have a son. Xin Xian has been intelligent since he was a child, and has no problem dealing with people or protecting himself. The other boy is different, he just knows how to mope around and doesn’t want to be implicated. “

Shi Nian suddenly said, “Zhou Xinyun?”

Old Mr. Zhou nodded and said with a smile, “That boy, Xin Yun, has long talked about you, saying that you are very clever. Today, I see that you are indeed so! “

Shi Nian: “I took a casual guess…”

After all, it was only Zhou Xinyun that he knew with the surname Zhou. The one who won first place in the Mecha Manufacturing Department, and they were all punished for running laps together back then. And he looks like the person described who just wants to live with his head in the clouds and mecha manufacturing. There is a Zhou Xinxiang here, so a brother named Zhou Xinyun was also normal.

Adjutant Xue: “Your son is in sixth school?”

“Yes.” Old Mr. Zhou said, “Xin Yun’s nature is not like Xin Xian. The atmosphere at First school doesn’t suit him too well, but the sixth school is less noticeable. So even if he stands out a bit there, it’s not a big deal. “

Unless it’s a case like Shi Nian’s, where he does something everyone can’t do.

So, even if Zhou Xinyun is number one in the Sixth school, in the eyes of everyone, he might not be as good as an ordinary student in the First school.

Shi Nian also remembered what Zhou Xinyun looked like, and was filled with thoughts of the other person standing on the podium, smiling coyly. Of course, there was also the look on the other party’s face when he was caught without his school uniform that day, and he said with a resigned expression that he did not want to be a chicken to be killed, as an example.

It was like a naive and innocent little white rabbit, so it’s no wonder the parents weren’t at ease.

“The more secretive this matter is, the better. But today, why did you suddenly tell us? ” Shi Nian suddenly said.

Lu Bo Ting also looked over. No one had asked this, it was Old Man Zhou who had taken the initiative to bring it up.

“He’s also graduating soon.” Old Mr. Zhou said, “I think that it would be better to let him make the same choice as his brother. After all, you have protected them well. ” When he said this, Old Mr. Zhou also gave Shi Nian a glance.

Lu Bo Ting said, “I’ll have Adjutant Xue arrange it later.”

Old Mr. Zhou nodded and said, “Xinyun is still very talented and was taught by me since he was young. He may not be much worse than I in the future.”

Lu Bo Ting nodded and brought up what Shi Nian had said earlier, “You came out this time for the Space Stone?”

“Right.” Old man Zhou nodded: “I have not given up over the years, and recently developed a new mecha that will most likely surpass the Ink Dragon back then.”

When he said this, even Lu Bo Ting looked over in surprise and shock.

The Ink Dragon was the strongest mecha today, and the one that Lu Bo Ting was using.

Now there is a mech that can be compared to the Ink Dragon?

Xue Chi was even more shocked: “But you are not…”

“My mental power is useless.” Old man Zhou said, “But what is inside the brain is still there. I have been unable to let go of mecha manufacturing all these years. I finally broke through the existing theory and perceived a little essence of the year when the Ink Dragon was manufactured. “

While he was talking, Shi Nian opened his light brain to search for the Ink Dragon and took another look at some knowledge of mech manufacturing.

He looked extremely fast and soon learned that the Ink Dragon was different from other mechs; the Ink Dragon was the masterpiece of a master back then. The shape is like a dragon in the air. Of course, its strength certainly does not lie there, but in its ductility. Ordinary S-class mental powerhouses can not drive him. One must be S+ or above. But it was said, that the higher the person’s mental power, the stronger the Ink Dragon is.

This point was argued for more than a hundred years, until Lu Bo Ting came out of nowhere, reached the double S-class spiritual power, and finally affirmed that this is actually true.

Since then, Ink Dragon has become a god on the battlefield, and no more mechas can surpass him.

After Shi Nian understood, he then looked at Mr. Zhou. The latter said: “It’s easy to say LoMo ng should have used the space stone on the mech back then, otherwise it absolutely could not carry so many weapons.”

Since he wanted to make a weapon that surpassed Ink Dragon’s, he certainly needed the space stone.

“This is my lifelong wish now.” Old Mr. Zhou said, “Originally, the Space Stone was obtained by the Wu family, and I thought I had no hope in this life, but I didn’t want to give up… …. Marshal Lu, if you promise to give me the space stone for research, when the mecha appear in the future, it will belong to you. “

This was an absolutely no-lose deal.

“If the space stone is given to you, how long will it take you ……”

“Initial estimate is five to ten years!” Old man Zhou said, “I lost my spiritual power and became an ordinary person. In turn, I can see through a lot of things, and created the current fire phoenix. But I still have no spiritual power after all. It will inevitably take more time than the next person to do this. “

Lu Bo Ting glanced at Shi Nian, but did not say anything.

Xue Chi also did his best to maintain his expression, and did not mention that they had already had a layman’s preliminary space technology research success.

Finally, Lu Bo Ting only said: “Have you found a place to live? Do you need me to arrange a place? “

Old man Zhou nodded: “Then it would be best.”

Since he came to the door, he did not intend to skim too much. What’s more, the main star gave him a sense of unease as soon as he stood on it, so he naturally accepted Lu Bo Ting’s arrangement.

He did not push too much, but only said, “I know this matter needs to be considered, you consider it and come to me as soon as possible.”

After the two sides agreed, Xue Chi was responsible for finding a place for Mr. Zhou to live.

It was in the community where they lived before, in the villa next door. It happens that everything was there, and security will just need a few people to be sent over.

Zhou Xinxiang’s vacation also happened to be over yet, so they lived together first.

“What a surprise!” On the way back, Xue Chi couldn’t help but mutter: “I didn’t expect that Zhou Lao wouldn’t give up, and he really tossed out such an achievement.”

“It can be seen that if one perseveres and does not give up, there will always be results.” Shi Nian thought of himself. He was going to die back then, but he didn’t want to die, so he just persevered, and finally met Bai Xiaoya, and forcibly recovered his own small life.

And then he was pulled by the Heavenly Dao to make a deal, and he got a human body.

“By the way, why did you not mention it earlier that I know about space technology? I may be able to help him understand it better. “

Lu Bo Ting looked at him and said, “You did not say it.”

Shi Nian was stunned.

Because he was there and did not mention it, Lu Bo Ting thought he may not want to mention it and did not even ask a question.

After all, if he asked while there, old man Zhou was not stupid. Even if his brain was full of technology and he didn’t notice, that Zhou Xinxiang was not simple, it would certainly be suspicious.

Otherwise, one would wonder why space technology was brought up.

Lu Bo Ting is not the kind of person who fantasises. He is  too practical, and everyone knows it.

“Boss, has anyone ever said, you are not easy to get along with due to your cold face, but in fact, you are very considerate,” Shi Nian asked.

“No.” Lu Bo Ting: “You are the first.”

“Yes, after all, most people are visual animals, and they are scared of you. Who will notice your good heart? “

After Shi Nian’s serious analysis, ” You take a look at Xue Chi. He talks so much, and has followed you for so long. But when you put on a sunken face, he shuts up and is even afraid to say another word. “

“Tsk tsk…”

When the aircraft arrived at the place, Lu Bo Ting opened the door and asked, “Then are you not afraid?”

“That is…” Shi Nian jumped down easily, while pleasantly adding, “What can you do to me?”

You are like a paper tiger to me!

“Wait, what’s with that look in your eyes?
