Pinnacle Armor
77 checks and balances
Mrs. Elena's secretary was carefully driving the floating vehicle while peeking into the rearview mirror.
The two teenagers sitting in the back row were as silent as when they got into the car before.
Judging from the atmosphere, he felt that Lu Xingxi and Xin Xunyang should have had a conflict. Since getting in the car, they hadn't exchanged a single word.However, even though there was a conflict, the two still chose to go to Ye's house together... He felt that he was a little confused about whether the relationship between the young couple was good or not.
Just when the secretary thought so, in the rearview mirror, he saw Xin Xunyang smiling at himself.
That feeling of persistence is more terrifying than a 20-meter-tall star beast baring its teeth at itself!
The secretary hurriedly looked forward without squinting, wishing that the speed of the floating car could be faster, so that he could get rid of the uncomfortable atmosphere inside the car.
Seeing that the other party didn't secretly look at him any more, Xin Xunyang withdrew his gaze in satisfaction and continued to look out the window.
In fact, the scenery outside the car was not as good as his eyes at the moment, and what lingered in his mind was always the expression on Lu Xingxi's face when he asked him to consider whether to terminate the partnership.
If you really want to dissolve my partner relationship, don't show such entangled eyes...
Until now, Xin Xunyang still wanted to say this to Lu Xingxi.
And when he asked Lu Xingxi why he made such a suggestion to him, the other party didn't answer, only saying that it was because being with him would cause big trouble.
"Is it more trouble than my old man?"
Xin Xunyang remembered that he asked this question at the time, and Lu Xingxi nodded without hesitation.
But when he wanted to inquire more deeply, Lu Xingxi stopped cooperating. Instead, he contacted the secretary who was busy driving in front of him, and asked him to pick him up at the Golden Rose Hotel.
In the end, Xin Xunyang stubbornly followed Lu Xingxi and squeezed into the car.
"The two of us will discuss the matter when we get back from Ye's house." Facing Lu Xingxi who was holding the door of the car with one hand, Xin Xunyang whispered so.
The other party compromised and let him sit in the car. Since then, neither of them have spoken.
Xin Xunyang secretly wondered how much the "big trouble" that Lu Xingxi said had anything to do with the Ye family.It stands to reason that with the Ye family's strength, even if they want to embarrass Lu Xingxi, there is only so much they can do.But Lu Xingxi said that this trouble is more serious than General Xin... Could it be related to Gu Lao's death?
A ridiculous thought suddenly flashed through Xin Xunyang's mind—could Lu Xingxi be Gu Lao's illegitimate son, right?
Thinking about it this way, he couldn't help but look at Lu Xingxi, and then found that the other party looked back at him with some confusion.
Xin Xunyang turned his face away with a guilty conscience, thinking that he must have hardly slept last night, so his brain was short-circuited.
As soon as the floating car stopped at the door of Ye's house, Ye Boli and Mrs. Elena greeted them in person.
If Ye Xi was still alive, maybe he would feel flattered to see this scene, right?
Lu Xingxi didn't talk nonsense with the Ye family, these two "relatives" who only had interests in their eyes, but followed the route in Ye Xi's memory, turned around by himself, and walked towards Ye Fengnian's studio.
Ye Boli and Mrs. Elena obviously didn't expect him to be so straightforward, so they froze for a moment before quickly following.
They didn't meet any servants of the Ye family along the way, obviously in order to avoid Lu Xingxi being seen, Ye Boli dismissed him in advance.
Because no one cared about this studio after Ye Fengnian's death, the alloy door of the studio has been covered with green vines, at first glance, people who don't know may think that this place has been abandoned for more than ten years .
Lu Xingxi looked back at the two of the Ye family.
Rao is as shameless as Ye Boli, and his son looked at him with such eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, so he could only argue: "Except for father, no one in the family knows about armor making, anyway. I can’t get in, and I’m afraid I’ll accidentally damage something if I ask someone to clean it... Ruben, call someone to clean up these vines!” He turned his head and yelled at the secretary.
But at this moment, Lu Xingxi, who was not interested in listening to his explanation, had already pressed his hand on the recognizer.
"Identity confirmation." After saying this with the murmur of "rustle", the alloy door broke free from the shackles of the vines and opened quietly.
Ye Boli stared dumbfounded at the open door for a while, and his expression became fanatical.
He pushed Lu Xingxi away, and quickly rushed into the passage.
"If there is nothing else, I will take my leave." Lu Xingxi said to Mrs. Elena who was still standing there.
Still thinking about Lu Xingxi's rude attitude towards him in the previous meeting, Mrs. Elena snorted coldly and waved her hands, "You go! Don't let anyone see you."
Her attitude made Xin Xunyang, who was watching, feel a little itchy for a moment.
Compared with Mrs. Elena's attitude towards Lu Xingxi, Mrs. Xin's attitude towards herself can be called her own mother!
Just as Xin Xunyang frowned, Lu Xingxi gave him a look.
His restless mood immediately calmed down.
Walking out of Ye's house, Xin Xunyang couldn't help but said: "Although I generally don't hit women, but for her, I think I can strike without hesitation."
"It's not the first day she's been like this, but fortunately, she won't be in contact with her again, so forget it." Lu Xingxi said.
"This is probably the only good news I've heard in the past few days." Xin Xunyang said angrily.
"En." Lu Xingxi responded casually, and looked at the time, "Find a place to sit down and continue discussing what I mentioned to you earlier?"
This was another topic that Xin Xunyang didn't want to talk about at all, but seeing Lu Xingxi's resolute attitude, he felt that if he refused, he wouldn't even be able to give a basic explanation.
Forget it, let's treat it as a long-lost date between partners!
Thinking of this, Xin Xunyang suddenly felt that his mood improved a lot.
Throwing the drawer that he had thoroughly checked to the ground, Ye Boli looked despondently at this spacious studio that didn't actually store many things.
Except for a mecha whose frame has just been made, there are no other valuable things in Ye Fengnian's workshop.
No matter how naive Ye Boli was, he wouldn't think that what Gu Lao said was referring to this mech that wasn't even a semi-finished product.
He gritted his teeth and kicked the parts in front of him far away.
"Damn... Did I think wrong, or did Dad dispose of things before he died?" He said to himself, then shook his head, "Impossible, it's something related to Gu Lao, Dad absolutely I can’t bear to destroy it, I’m sure it’s still somewhere…”
"Or handed it over to someone else."
Ye Boli stared blankly at Mrs. Elena walking over calmly, picked up a blueprint spread out on the floor and put it back on the workbench.
"what do you mean?"
"You know exactly what I mean, don't you?"
The couple looked at each other for a while, and Ye Boli frowned, "Dad did leave some things for Ye Xi, but we have checked those things, there is nothing rare!"
"If it's really nothing special, then how did Ye Xi escape from home, and how did he get admitted to Qianji College? You and I know how much he weighed before. This time he is so straightforward. He promised to open the door for us... maybe because he knows very well that there is nothing we want inside." Madam Elena analyzed clearly.
Ye Boli showed a thoughtful expression upon hearing this.
Indeed, although they checked the things that the old man left for Ye Xi, they were not important, but after Ye Xi escaped from home, no matter whether he changed his name or changed his surname, or went to the Luhe planet to hide, he needed a lot of money , this part was obviously left to him by his father, otherwise the meager pocket money he saved up by himself would definitely not be enough.Since the father can leave Ye Xi a lot of money without them knowing, it is not impossible to leave him something else by the way.
Ye Xi originally didn't have the talent of a knight, nor was he suitable to be a mecha technician, but now he is the representative of the Luhe Branch of Qianji College... It's hard to guarantee that he didn't use something his father left him!
"Where is Ye Xiren?" Halfway through the thought, Ye Boli suddenly raised his head and asked.
"Just left." Mrs. Elena replied.
"Why did you let him go like this?!"
"Don't let him go, why don't you take him for lunch at the risk of being seen by the servants as 'Second Young Master's fake corpse'?" Mrs. Elena sneered, "Anyway, we know where he lives now. There is still a lot of time..."
After saying this, Ye Boli gradually calmed down.
Indeed, the monk can't run away from the temple if he can run. Anyway, there are still a few days before the end of the intramural competition at Qianji College, so he can make arrangements slowly.
"Don't make any arrangements for these two days. If you contact too frequently, it may attract the attention of others, which is not good." After thinking about it, Ye Boli ordered.
It has been three days since Mr. Gu passed away, but so far, those people in the institute seem to have not found any information about his last research project.The chips I have in hand are very valuable...
Ye Boli thought, with a smile on his face.
But Mrs. Elena poured cold water on him precisely at this time, "If Ye Xi really has some important information, do you think he will hand it over honestly just because we want it? A posture of deliberately protecting him..."
This is indeed a problem.
Ye Boli walked around in circles for a while, then suddenly stopped and said, "The fact that the Xin family will protect Ye Xi is just that boy Xin Xunyang's own idea, or did General Xin really express his opinion?" Before they They all took it for granted that Xin Xunyang's attitude represented the attitude of General Xin, but maybe this was just a play of pretending to be a tiger?
Mrs. Elena obviously didn't consider this possibility, she was startled when she heard the words, and then slowly smiled, "I'll try Mrs. Xin's tone tomorrow..." If there is anyone in the Xin family who is willing to tear down Xin Xunyang's platform, Of course it was Mrs. Xin.
The two teenagers sitting in the back row were as silent as when they got into the car before.
Judging from the atmosphere, he felt that Lu Xingxi and Xin Xunyang should have had a conflict. Since getting in the car, they hadn't exchanged a single word.However, even though there was a conflict, the two still chose to go to Ye's house together...
