r body, picked up the thin blanket behind her, and gently draped it over her.Just as Leng Ye Shen was preparing to get up and leave, his deep gaze inadvertently fell on the fair legs between Tong Yi M...Lien Xing'er followed the sound and looked up. For a moment, she was stunned.

Her gaze locked onto a pair of icy, cold eyes. Within those black pupils, there seemed to be an unfathomable golden light hidden.

Lang An stood on the thick trunk of this large tree before him, his brows furrowed with a wild and cold expression that made it impossible to ignore him.

"That person, it was you, wasn't it" Xīng'er questioned. After a pause, she changed her words, "And the wolf that attacked me! It was also you!"

Lang An stood high, looking down at Lian Xing'er. He watched her furrowed brow, and after a long time, a rare, wicked smile curled up at the corner of his lips.

"Whoosh!"

The surrounding fallen leaves were swept up by the wind and then drifted back down.

Lian Xing'er instinctively raised her hand to shield her eyes from the sand whipped up by the wind.

When she let go of her hand, Lang An had already stood before her.

"The blood smell on Miss Lian is quite strong, so her temper is also big"

A calm, emotionless voice entered Lian Xing'er's ears.

Once again, Lian Xing'er met Lang An's eyes, and it was as if she saw those golden beast eyes that had rushed towards her once more.

Just as Lang An took a step forward, Lian Xing'er unconsciously took a step back.

Deep down, she still had some psychological fear of him.

"And when I was little, the stray dog that chased me was you too!" Xing'er clenched her fists and questioned seriously.

Lang An's face was expressionless, even more so than usual. He answered calmly: "Miss Lin, are you trying to insult me indirectly Calling me a wolf and a dog I don't understand. What have I ever done to offend Miss Lin"

"You—" Lian Xing'er hesitated, wanting to speak but unable to.

Lang An spoke slowly and deliberately, "Are you going to look for Grandpa Lian He's not in the lab today, and Grandma Pei isn't here either. However, there are a few other staff members around. Are you going to see them"

"Fine." Lian Xing'er pursed her lips, lowered her head and took out a pack of cookies from her handbag, handing it to Lang An. "Whether you admit it or not, you saved me at first. This is just as a thank you gift.”

Lang An lowered his eyes, looking at the cookies Lian Xing'er handed over. He didn't reach out.

"This is what my mommy made for me this morning," Lian Xing'er said again. "I haven't had a chance to eat it yet. You don't want it, then I..."

"Thank you." Before she could finish her sentence, Lang An snatched the bag of cookies from her hand and curtly replied with a "thank you."

Lian Xing'er withdrew her hand, glanced at Lang An, pursed her lips, and then turned to leave.

He hurt her, but also saved her. Does that balance out

After Lianxing left, Lang'an climbed back onto the big tree. He watched as Lianxing's car drove further and further away in the distance, while he opened the package and ate the cookies inside.

He had just finished eating all the cookies when Zhong Kai and Pei Ran returned.

Lang An immediately jumped down from the big tree and sprinted back to the lab.

Not long after…

"Why don't you just kill him" Lian Zhongkai asked angrily, his iron whip nearly lashing at Lang An.

Lang An was now sitting barefoot in the corner, saying nothing.

Pei Ran received a phone call and looked at Lian Zhongkai, explaining for Lang An: "Star was the one who was hijacked at number 32. It was Lang An who saved Star. I think Lang An didn't kill number 32 just to prevent Star from seeing a bloody scene. Besides, number 32 has already been secretly injected with neurotoxin by our people, he is crazy now, and the police can't get anything useful out of him. He poses no threat to us."

"Star is here!" Zhong Kai looked at Pei Ran in astonishment.

Originally, they were planning to have Lang An kill No. 32 and then stage a scene where he went crazy and committed suicide. Who knew they would run into Lian Xing'er.

Pei Ran nodded and continued, "According to the intelligence group, Xing'er didn't mention Lang An at the police station."

"It's just that girl, otherwise, we would have been finished!" Leon sighed in relief.

Pei Ran walked up to Lang An, knelt down, and patted Lang An's shoulder, comforting him: "Lang An, thank you for taking care of Xing'er."

Lang An listened to this, still with an impassive face.

When Lián Xīng'ěr returned home, she saw Tóng Yǐ Mò alone in the kitchen preparing lunch. She walked over and tactfully asked: "Mommy, is Grandpa a good person or a bad person"

"You little rascal, you didn't even tell me you were coming back." Tong Yimo was startled by Lian Xing'er's sudden words.

Lian Xing'er grinned: "Who told Mommy to be so serious about cooking every meal"

"Why are you suddenly asking this out of the blue" Tong Yimo asked, returning to the topic as she stirred the curry soup in the pot.

Lian Xing'er simply made up a reason: “Because Grandpa is always so mysterious! He lets me come and go from his lab freely, but I think he’s hiding something!”

"Your grandfather's laboratory, you should avoid it if possible," Tong Yimo suddenly said with a cold face.
