I Don't Want to Be Turned Into the Female Protagonist by the System Chapter 587 : The Dreaded Scenario Unfolds

January 3rd, 6:30 AM in Zhe Province.

By this ti, Lu Ran had already finished shopping at the market and returned ho.

As soon as she entered, she was surprised to see her husband, Su Lujun, sitting in the recliner with his phone, looking utterly shocked.

This sight truly frightened Lu Ran. After all, he resembled soone suffering from a stroke, a common ailnt among middle-aged and elderly n.

Seeing her husband seemingly frozen, Lu Ran quickly set down her grocery basket and rushed to check on him.

However, upon reaching his side and noticing that his hand holding out the phone wasn't shaking, she let out a sigh of relief. She knew that stroke patients typically experience severe tremors.

Taking the phone from Su Lujun, Lu Ran examined its contents.

Seeing the familiar UC browser and its signature shocking headlines, Lu Ran felt sowhat exasperated. After all, her husband was "shocked" daily, and she had grown accustod to it!

However, this ti, upon seeing her precious daughter's photo in the article, Lu Ran could no longer remain calm.

She hastily scrolled back to the beginning and started reading from the headline.

The title was longer than usual: "Shocking! Shocking! Shocking! Antibody Vaccine for Ancient Flu Virus Successfully Developed!!!"

The triple "shocking" combined with nurous exclamation marks at the end was quite eye-catching.

Undeniably, the successful developnt of an antibody vaccine for the ancient flu virus warranted such a headline.

Although Lu Ran lived in a suburban villa, she was well aware of the current severity of the ancient flu virus, as many of her friends had been affected by it.

However, Lu Ran found it strange how the antibody vaccine research could be related to her Little Qi.

With this skepticism in mind, Lu Ran continued scrolling through the webpage.

Soon, she saw two other familiar faces: the adorable little girl, Xiao Xiaoxiao, and her daughter's caring roommate, Wang Zijin.

According to the article, Lu Ran discovered that these three young girls had founded the Xiaoxiao Qi Jin Research Institute, and the antibody vaccine ntioned in the headline was developed by this very institute.

Upon learning this news, Lu Ran felt as if she hadn't fully awakened.

After all, who could have imagined that while experts worldwide were researching the ancient flu virus, her daughter's research institute would be the first to develop a vaccine?

It seed too incredible!

As she continued reading, she ca across the military order Su Qi had made with Mayor Guan Yi, as well as the reporter's estimate of her daughter's assets.

Lu Ran found it all rather unbelievable.

The idea that her 18-year-old daughter now possessed assets in the nine-figure range seed utterly bizarre.

However, upon seeing the wager agreent in the military order, Lu Ran felt both puzzled and angry.

She couldn't believe that her precious daughter hadn't consulted her or Su Lujun about such a significant matter. Although Lu Ran knew that if she had been aware, she would have certainly stopped Su Qi.

Her daughter's decision not to discuss it with them was likely to avoid worrying them. But the thought that the little girl had kept this secret for so long made Lu Ran feel it was simply unacceptable!

After finishing the entire article, an irritated Lu Ran was about to use Su Lujun's phone to call her precious daughter when, unexpectedly, an incoming call appeared.

The caller was soone both Lu Ran and Su Lujun knew well—Su Lujun's forr superior officer, Old Jiang.

Faced with Old Jiang's call, although Lu Ran desperately wanted to call her daughter imdiately, seeing that it wasn't even 7 AM and recalling that the article ntioned events concluding at 4 AM, she decided to answer this call first and contact her daughter a bit later.

As the call connected, Su Lujun and Lu Ran soon heard Old Jiang's hearty laughter. He proceeded to boast to Su Lujun about how he had recomnded Su Qi to Mayor Guan Yi.

Lu Ran and Su Lujun listened as the old commander enthusiastically praised their precious daughter.

Gradually, they sensed sothing amiss, detecting a familiar undertone.

After about ten minutes, Old Jiang finally revealed his true intentions, asking, "By the way, is Little Su Qi still unmarried? Little Lu, I have a grandson who's 23 this year. What do you think about arranging a eting between him and Little Su Qi?"

Hearing the old commander's words, Su Lujun had already prepared an excuse to deflect the suggestion.

"Old Jiang, Little Qi is only 18 today, not yet of marriageable age. Let's revisit this in a couple of years!"

"That's no problem, why not get engaged first? What do you think? My grandson is quite..."

Hearing his forr superior's persistent pressure, Su Lujun felt a headache coming on. Given their relationship, an outright refusal seed inappropriate.

At this mont, Lu Ran whispered a couple of words into Su Lujun's ear. His eyes lit up, and he quickly said:

"What's that, Old Jiang? I can't hear you clearly. The connection is breaking up. Hello? Hello?" He then hung up.

After ending the call, both Su Lujun and Lu Ran let out a sigh of relief.

However, they soon turned their attention back to the news article on the phone, their thoughts seemingly in sync.

Looking at the article, Su Lujun and Lu Ran sighed simultaneously.

They could already envision the stream of visitors with ulterior motives that would likely arrive in the coming days.

The thought of such a scenario gave both Lu Ran and Su Lujun a headache.

It seed that having such a capable daughter wasn't entirely a blessing.

After all, there were far too many people with designs on her!

Like Su Lujun and Lu Ran, many others had seen today's news.

It wasn't just the UC shocking news section; various short video platforms and countless video bloggers had shared the successful case of the antibody vaccine today.

After all, the ancient flu virus antibody vaccine was the hottest topic of the mont.

Not to ntion, the composition of the Xiaoxiao Qi Jin Research Institute itself was a highly intriguing subject.

By 9 AM, the trending topics on all major platforms were dominated by reports about the antibody vaccine and the Xiaoxiao Qi Jin Research Institute.

anwhile, at the research institute, Su Qi, who had just finished the interview at 5 AM, was now embraced on both sides by her little wife and wife Zijin. After their long and tiring ordeal, the three were truly exhausted.

In her sleep, Su Qi was still unaware that the scenario she dreaded most had once again co to pass. As the face of the research institute, she had beco famous once more!
