The next day, Lin Chen brought Ah Shi to the military departnt.
In the military's research institute, Ah Shi saw the brocade box that Lin Chen had retrieved from the sunken ship.
She carefully caressed the brocade box, unfolded the jade brocade inside to take a look, and then carefully put it back.
Then, Ah Shi smiled and said, "Now, my wish has also been fulfilled."
As Lin Chen and Ah Shi left the military departnt, Ah Shi suddenly asked, "You took this brocade box from under the sea."
"Of course it was ! Ah, you wouldn't believe how thrilling it was," Lin Chen replied with a smile.
Ah Shi fixed her gaze tightly on Lin Chen, "Didn't you think about opening it after you got the brocade box? It supposedly hides the secret to eternal life."
Lin Chen smiled lightly, "Of course not, the sea was full of sharks, and all I was thinking about was how to escape."
Ah Shi looked at Lin Chen and suddenly laughed, "Lin Chen, take
around Man City and let's have so fun!"
"Sure! I love taking a beautiful woman shopping," Lin Chen said with a light smile.
Lin Chen promptly drove a military vehicle and took Ah Shi around the whole of Man City.
They visited the famous temples of Man City, rode elephants, explored the comrcial streets, and Lin Chen even took her to an amusent park to try so extre sports.
That day, the two of them behaved like a couple, thoroughly enjoying themselves.
It was only when it got dark that Lin Chen reluctantly dropped Ah Shi off at the cruise ship.
"Lin Chen, I have to return to the Island Nation tomorrow," Ah Shi said sowhat reluctantly.
"Yeah, I'll co visit you in the Island Nation if I get the chance," Lin Chen replied with a smile.
Looking at Lin Chen's radiant smile, a touch of bitterness appeared on Ah Shi's face. Maybe after today, we might be enemies the next ti we et.
"Lin Chen, I hope that in your heart, I can always be the innocent and cute girl you saw today," Ah Shi seriously said.
"Okay, I promise you that in my heart, you'll always be the most beautiful and adorable girl," Lin Chen replied with a light smile.
Ah Shi nodded, suddenly tiptoed up and kissed Lin Chen on the cheek before turning around to board the cruise ship.
Watching Ah Shi's disappearing figure, Lin Chen didn't know why but she felt incredibly familiar to him.
As the cruise ship set sail, the sea breeze blew through Ah Shi's hair, her hands holding an urn with her predecessor's ashes.
However, she opened the urn and scattered the ashes into the sea, then threw the empty urn into the ocean.
Her hand slowly opened, revealing a brocade box identical to the one they had just seen.
Embedded on the inner lining of the brocade box were three small characters: "Green Bamboo Snake."
Ah Shi's reason for wanting to inspect the brocade box up close was because she possessed a skill "Super Duplication!"
There were nearly a hundred replicas in this world, all indistinguishable from the originals, and all these replicas were made by her hand.
At that mont, unknown to Ah Shi, a figure appeared behind her—it was the Dark Alliance's Number Eight.
"Sister Seven, why didn't you take the opportunity to kill Lin Chen yesterday? You couldn't have fallen for him, could you!" Eighth Prince said coldly.
"Do I need you to tell
what to do? What are you doing here?" Ah Shi asked coldly.
"It's just that the old man doesn't trust . He asked
to bring back the brocade box and the jade brocade to the base. You are in charge of the second part of the mission from now on."
"What?" Hearing Prince Eight's words, Ah Shi's feelings were extrely complicated.
Because of Lin Chen, she truly felt reluctant to leave T-Nation. Just yesterday, she had spent the day touring Manhattan with Lin Chen, which was the happiest day of her life.
However, she also knew that staying in Manhattan would an coming into conflict with Lin Chen and that Lin Chen would find out her true identity, which she didn't want.
"Sister Seven, our father told
to remind you to never forget your mission," Prince Eight said with a cold laugh.
"Do you have anything else to say? If not, you can leave," Ah Shi said icily.
At this mont, Ah Shi's feelings were very complicated. Although she knew that she would one day beco enemies with Lin Chen, she never expected that day to co so soon.
Lin Chen watched the cruise ship slowly depart, feeling inexplicably sad in his heart. They had only known each other for two days, why did he feel this way?
"Could it be that I'm really a sentintal person?" Lin Chen shook his head, dismissing the random thoughts.
At that mont, Lin Chen's cellphone suddenly rang. It was a call from Old Xia.
"Mr. Lin, can you co to the hospital right now?" Old Xia's voice was sowhat urgent.
"What's the matter?" Lin Chen asked.
"Qingqing and Ruoyu suddenly passed out after returning from shopping today," Old Xia said anxiously.
"What? Wait for , I'm on my way,"
Lin Chen said, his face changing as he hurried to the hospital by car.
Lin Chen rushed to the hospital, bursting into the inpatient building. At that mont, Old Xia was walking back and forth anxiously.
Seeing Lin Chen, Old Xia finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Mr. Lin, you've finally arrived."
"Quick, take
to see them," Lin Chen urged hurriedly.
Entering the hospital room, he saw Qingqing and Ruoyu, the two sisters, lying on their beds looking extrely pale, frowning slightly, and with expressions of pain on their faces.
Seeing Old Xia, the attending doctor sighed, "Old Xia, your two daughters might be having a heart attack. We need to operate imdiately, or their lives could be at risk any mont."
"No, we can't do surgery," Lin Chen interjected suddenly.
The attending doctor Mickey was taken aback by Lin Chen's remark: "Who are you, and who let you in?"
Old Xia hurriedly said, "Mr. Lin is a traditional Chinese dicine practitioner I invited."
"Traditional Chinese dicine?" Mickey's eyes revealed a trace of disdain.
He had graduated from the famous Frank College of dicine in California, one of the world's most prestigious dical institutions. As a dical doctor who graduated from there, he had always been educated in Western dicine and had no respect for traditional Chinese dicine.
"Old Xia, your two daughters are having a severe heart attack. The situation is extrely urgent. If we don't operate imdiately, there might be fatal consequences," Mickey said coldly.
Lin Chen snorted coldly, "You quacks are truly harmful. These sisters are actually poisoned. If we don't detox them imdiately, they might die even before they reach the operating table."
Old Xia's gaze slightly sharpened upon hearing Lin Chen's words. He had witnessed Lin Chen's abilities before, and though Ruoyu had a heart condition, Qingqing did not. Both sisters developing symptoms at the sa ti was highly suspicious.
"Hmm, poisoned? I think you've read too many novels. We've already checked; the sisters show no signs of poisoning whatsoever," Mickey said confidently.
Mickey had considerable prestige in the Manhattan dical community, and today, to be called a quack by so young man greatly angered him.
Lin Chen snorted coldly, "This poison is colorless and tasteless. Obviously, your devices cannot detect it. You'd better keep out of the way and let
save them."
Hearing Lin Chen's words, everyone around was stunned. Mickey had always been authoritative in the hospital. Today, to see him being scolded by a young man was almost unbelievable!
