Just then, Housekeeper Ye walked in and said, “Second Young Master, Miss Zi, breakfast has been prepared.

Zi Yi asked Ian, “Have you eaten breakfast? Do you want to join us?”

Ian and Lu Jingye had been working outside the entire night and they certainly had not eaten. Ian said in a gentlemanly manner, “Thank you and sorry to disturb you.”

He stood up and followed them as they headed to the dining table.

After breakfast, Zi Yi and Dou Xiangling were just about to return to their rooms and pack their belongings, when Ian politely called out to Dou Xiangling.

When Dou Xiangling turned around to look in his direction, he said in a gentlemanly manner, “I have something to discuss with you alone. I wonder if it is convenient for you to spare me a few minutes of your time?”

Before Zi Yi had the chance to speak, Zi Yi looked at him defensively. “Why are you looking for my cousin? What’s there to discuss between the two of you?”

Ian silently looked at Dou Xiangling. He did not wish for Zi Yi to know of this matter as he felt that he would be made fun of terribly if she knew. Therefore, he wanted to talk to her privately.

Dou Xiangling had guessed what he wanted to talk about and smiled as she shook her head. “Apologies, Mr. Ian. I have to pack my belongings now. Moreover, I think that there’s nothing to talk about between us. ”

She then headed for the guest room under Ian’s gaze.

Zi Yi stood by the stairs and glanced at Ian before she coldly warned him. “You’re not to hit on my cousin.”

Ian’s lips twitched and he retorted. “Which eye did you see with that I was hitting on Miss Dou?”

“Both my eyes.”

“…”

Ian was speechless.

Having said that, Zi Yi also turned around and headed upstairs.

Ian glared at her back view. After they disappeared from his line of sight, he turned around and looked at Lu Jingye. He then asked, “Lu, which aspect of Miss Zi do you fancy? Could it be because she’s beautiful?”

Ian suddenly remained silent for a moment when he asked that. To tell you the truth, he was attracted by that beautiful pair of eyes of hers when he first encountered Zi Yi at the bridge. Otherwise, he would have minded his own business and not helped her.

He did not expect that she would be the girlfriend of his good friend.

Lu Jingye gave him a deep look, only to speak a few seconds later. “You’ll know when you have someone you like.”

Having said that, he had unexpectedly gone upstairs too.

Ian was stunned for a second before he asked, “What are you doing?”

“Going to pack the luggage.”

“Isn’t Zi Yi packing it? Why are you packing it too?”

Lu Jingye merely looked back at him and gave him a sympathetic gaze.

Ian: “…”

To hell with that sympathetic gaze

What was there for him to be pitied over!

The three of them soon packed their belongings. The housekeeper had already prepared the car for them.

Ian insisted on sending them off and after getting in the car, he and Lu Jingye started to discuss follow-up matters.

Zi Yi and Dou Xiangling discussed what they wanted to do after they returned.

Dou Xiangling smiled and said, “Yiyi has won first place in the International Painting and Calligraphy Competition this time around. The School of Fine Arts would certainly invite you to be a special lecturer. Do you want to come over to play?”

Zi Yi shook her head and said, “I still have tons of things to do, I don’t have time.”

Dou Xiangling knew that the reason why Zi Yi painted in the first place was because of her. Since she had said that, Dou Xiangling did not continue asking.

Ian and Lu Jingye’s conversation was 100% about work-related business. Dou Xiangling thought about what Zi Yi had said to Ian in the morning and could not help but whisper in her ears, “Yiyi, do you really trust Ian?”

She even gave him a look after she said that.

Ian sensed her incoming gaze and hastily looked up. He then looked at her with a wary gaze, as he felt that she was badmouthing him.

Dou Xiangling retracted her gaze in a natural manner and pretended that she had not said anything.

Ian narrowed hisveyes.

But he soon returned to discuss business with Lu Jingye.

Zi Yi said, “What’s there to be worried about? He will be happy to look after the place for me when the time comes.”

The experiment she intended to do was to achieve a breakthrough for the current research standards on Earth. When they successfully achieve a breakthrough, the profits would be unimaginable. Zi Yi felt that giving him 1% of the shares was too much.

Dou Xiangling did not continue asking after Zi Yi said that.

Lu Jingye’s private plane stopped at Country X’s International Airport. The both of them first sent Dou Xiangling to the boarding gate, before they continued to drive to the other side of the airport.

When the car came to a stop, Ian followed them and alighted, before he said to Zi Yi, “Zi, I will take good care of that winery for you.”

“Thank you.”

Ian then looked at Lu Jingye with a complicated gaze. “You’re rich and can be wilful. I just hope that you won’t regret it when the time comes.” Until now, he had never thought that Zi Yi could successfully build up that type of research lab. He felt that they were simply burning money.

Moreover, it was a sum of money that he could not afford to do so with.

Zi Yi looked at him discontentedly and did not say anything but instead pulled Lu Jingye’s hand as they headed towards the plane.

While they walked, she said, “If not for the fact that it requires time for the research lab to be built, I honestly want to make him regret his words!”

“It doesn’t matter. He will regret it sooner or later.”

Ian: “…” My kindness is being treated like sh*t!

Lu Jingye’s private jet was not very large in size, but there was everything inside.

After they got on the plane, they directly headed for Country D.

It only took three hours or so from Country X to Country D. Lu Jingye was in a hurry to go back and he straight away left to sign the contract as soon as he arrived. The two of them had a meal there before they got on the plane once again.

During the flight, they would discuss Lu Yunxiao’s treatment plan and Zi Yi said, “When the time comes, I need a trustworthy doctor to treat your brother together with me. Have you made preparations on your side?”

“Yes. I’ve already invited Elder Hu, a well-known doctor in the brain field within the capital. He was a subordinate of my grandfather when he was younger.

Zi Yi was momentarily stunned and asked, “Aren’t you afraid that he would reveal your younger brother’s condition to your grandfather?”

“After I invited him over, I cut off all his contact with the outside world. I did not tell him who he was going to treat when I invited him back then.”

“Wouldn’t you incur Dr. Hu’s dissatisfaction?”

“No. After he saw Lu Yunxiao’s condition, he said that he would not leave until he cured him.”

Zi Yi was relieved. “Then that’s great.”

She required someone she would have 100% trust in for the treatment. Otherwise, she would not know if something would happen or not during the treatment process.

By the time Zi Yi and Lu Jingye returned to the capital, it was morning.

Lu Jingye directly had the plane to head towards the location where Lu Yunxiao was at.

Unexpectedly, it was within a mountain not far from the Y Base.

They could only see a primeval forest from the view on the plane, and there were no signs of the hidden research base.

Lu Jingye told her, “When we first built the research base, we had invited a master to set up an array. At that time, we had also used the most advanced barrier equipment of the Lu Group. Therefore, ordinary people are unable to get inside.”

When Zi Yi heard that there was an array set up, she said, “I’ve always thought that the array formation of ancient times is extremely powerful. Later on, some people discovered through research that various array formations are based on the Earth’s magnetic field. However, the greatest drawback is that it is easily broken… I will help you check out the barrier shortly and upgrade it.”

“Okay.”

The plane circled over the base two and a half times before it descended. When it approached the forest, they could finally see the scene inside.

In fact, they had also utilized light refraction and so, the base could not be seen from above.
