Xia Wanyuan brought Xiao Bao, her little tail, into the Wei family’s courtyard. When she saw Wei Zimu standing at the door, she understood why the Wei family had been so peaceful these few days.

“Sister Wanyuan.” After not seeing her for many days, Wei Zimu seemed to have lost some weight and smiled gently at Xia Wanyuan.

Xiao Bao looked curiously at the handsome man in front of him and blinked his big eyes.

This uncle is so good-looking!

“Mm.” Xia Wanyuan nodded. She pointed at Wei Zimu. “Xiao Bao, call Uncle Zimu.”

Xiao Bao’s eyes curved up and he said enthusiastically, “Hello, Uncle Zimu!”

Seeing Xiao Bao, who looked like a porcelain doll, warmth appeared in Wei Zimu’s eyes. He squatted down and stroked Xiao Bao’s head. “Hello, what’s your name?”

“My name is Jun Yin.” Xiao Bao smiled.

“Jun Yin,” Wei Zimu repeated. “Good name.”

With that, Wei Zimu stood up and looked at Xia Wanyuan. “You’ve been gone for the past few days. There are many things in the Wei family that you need to oversee. Let’s find a place to talk.”

“Okay.” Xia Wanyuan nodded. The sunlight was very good today. Xia Wanyuan pointed at the pavilion in the garden. “Let’s go over and talk.”

“Mm.”

Xia Wanyuan turned around, took Xiao Bao’s hand, and led him not far from the pavilion. She took a branch and drew a circle on the ground. “Stay in this circle and wait for Mommy to finish talking. Don’t run around.”

Xiao Bao nodded obediently. “Mommy, I’ll wait for you.”

Xia Wanyuan patted his head before walking into the pavilion with Wei Zimu.

The view here was very wide. She could see Xiao Bao playing hopscotch happily. Wei Zimu smiled. “Sister Wanyuan, your child is indeed very cute.”

Xia Wanyuan glanced at Xiao Bao and retracted her gaze. “Thank you for helping me manage the Wei family these few days.”

“What thank you?” Wei Zimu placed the account book beside him in front of Xia Wanyuan. “I’ve already sorted out these things. See if there’s any problem.”

Xia Wanyuan quickly flipped open the account book. “You organized it very well. The Wei family is in order under your management.”

“Now that you’re back, it’s your turn to manage it.”

“Where are you going next?” There were many dried fruits prepared by Wei Zimu on the table. Xia Wanyuan took one and placed it in her mouth.

“Where are you not going? I’ll stay in Beijing. If you need anything, you can look for me.” The Wei family was Wei Zimu’s home. Wei Zimu had never thought of leaving.

Okay, then you’ll still be in charge of the Wei family’s matters.” Wei Zimu was more familiar with the Wei family’s businesses than anyone else. He was the most suitable candidate to manage the Wei family.

Wei Zimu hesitated for a moment, then smiled and nodded. “Since you’ve said so, I’m willing to help you manage it.”

“I met your younger brother in France more than half a month ago.” Xia Wanyuan suddenly mentioned Yu Qian, and Wei Zimu’s hand that was holding the cup paused.

“He didn’t do anything to you, did he?”

Xia Wanyuan looked at Wei Zimu thoughtfully. “I have no grievances with him. What can he do to me? But I’m very curious. What does your younger brother do?”

“He makes medicine. He’s a biologist.” Wei Zimu was silent for a moment before giving a general answer.

Yu Qian studied all sorts of pathogenic creatures and had extremely high medical skills. Unfortunately, his medical skills were not used to treat people. Wei Zimu did not plan to tell anyone about this.

“Mm,” Xia Wanyuan replied. She could tell that Wei Zimu did not intend to say more, so she tactfully did not ask further.

“Do you want to visit Grandma?” The silent atmosphere between the two made Wei Zimu feel a little stuffy. He took the initiative to visit Old Madam Wei.

“Okay.” Xia Wanyuan nodded and waved at Xiao Bao. “Come here.”

This was the first time Xiao Bao had seen Old Madam Wei. He had a sweet mouth and looked obedient, making Old Madam Wei extremely happy. In the end, he left with a huge red packet.

Wei Zimu sent Xia Wanyuan to the door and got into the car as usual. Xiao Bao leaned against the car window. “Uncle Gentle, see you next time.”

A warm smile appeared on Wei Zimu’s face. “Mm, see you next time.”

With that, Wei Zimu looked at Xia Wanyuan. “Sister Wanyuan, goodbye.”

“If you’re unhappy, tell me. Thank you for taking care of me all this time.” Xia Wanyuan could feel that Wei Zimu really doted on her like a sister.

“With this sentence of yours, it’s better than anything.”

Watching Xia Wanyuan leave, Wei Zimu stood on the spot for a while before returning to the courtyard.

Just as he returned to the courtyard, Yu Qian called.

“Hey.”

“Brother, I need people.” Yu Qian’s voice was cold and emotionless.

“What people?”

“An unborn fetus to a seventy-year old elderly. I need at least twenty people of every age.” Yu Qian’s tone was as if he was talking about carrots and cabbages.

“What are you going to do? Didn’t I agree to be your experiment?” Hearing Yu Qian’s words, Wei Zimu felt his entire body turn cold.

“You’re only one person. There’s nothing to observe.” Yu Qian chatted on the phone as he shook the test tube in his hand. “Brother, do you remember what you promised me when I let you return to China to see Xia Wanyuan?”

“Why must it be like this?” Wei Zimu sat in the dark room and felt that the bright sunlight outside was as distant as a lifetime ago. “You clearly know how painful it is to be an experiment.”

“Oh?” Yu Qian stopped shaking the test tube and his eyes froze. “Brother, you know that it’s painful to be an experiment subject? You should know how many years I’ve been doing it, right? More than ten years. May I ask, who caused all of this?”

Wei Zimu fell silent.

He and Yu Qian were born into an ordinary family. Although their family was not rich, they did not have to worry about food and clothes. The two brothers were also raised in the hands of their parents.

When he was young, he was lively and cheerful. When Yu Qian was young, he was soft and cute, innocent and cute. His parents were busy with work, so he brought Yu Qian along.

However, he was too playful. At that time, he was just in time for the temple fair. He only cared about chasing after the flower boat. When he was done playing, Yu Qian had already disappeared into the sea of people.

Yu Qian went missing. They called the police but could not find him for several years. His mother cried all day and thought too much before leaving the world. A good family fell apart. His originally loyal father drank every day and accidentally fell into the water and drowned one night when he was walking. Wei Zimu also became an orphan and drifted outside to beg for food until he was picked up by the Wei family.

Compared to him, Yu Qian was not so lucky. Back then, Yu Qian had been carried away and sold to Old K in Continent F. He, who was only five years old, had become a tool to test the medicine.

The underground world was truly a place where the strong preyed on the weak. They were always on the verge of death. Yu Qian had never told Wei Zimu how he had replaced the former overlord, Old K, to control the Dark Night Kingdom, but Wei Zimu could imagine how much despair and pain Yu Qian had experienced.

This was also why Wei Zimu did not complain about how Yu Qian treated him.

He felt guilty.

Wei Zimu’s eyes turned red. “I’m sorry.”

There was no change in Yu Qian’s eyes. “Brother, it’s useless to say sorry. Prepare the people I want. Go to Fuchun City in the southwest in ten days. Someone will pick you up then.”

With that, Yu Qian hung up and focused on studying the liquid in the test tube.

However, Wei Zimu’s eyes were red.
