“Auntie Qiu, what’s your relationship with him?”

Ye Luan’s voice was trembling. He grabbed Qiu Tong’s clothes and pointed at Qiu Rong with his other hand.

His eyes flickered with anticipation as he asked with a tight feeling in his throat.

Qiu Tong took the photo and smiled when she saw her former self leaning on Qiu Rong’s shoulder in the picture.

This should be one of the photos that Qiu Xingyuan and the rest had secretly hidden.

Qiu Tong sat by the bed and said with a smile, “This is my father. We look very similar, right?”

“Unfortunately, he can’t live with us now. After a while, I’ll find a way to get him out.”

When Ye Luan heard the word “father”, his body swayed.

Qiu Tong sensed that something was wrong and was about to ask when she saw Ye Luan rush to the door and lock it from the inside.

Ye Luan came back and rummaged through the drawers until he found a folding knife.

Qiu Tong did not even have time to react before he pressed the blade against his abdomen, slicing apart a layer of skin.

Ye Luan trembled in pain, but his hands did not stop. He dug the blade even deeper.

Qiu Tong was shocked and hurriedly ran to his side to stop him. However, she suddenly noticed that there was a black chip embedded in his flesh. She helped to remove the chip and then covered Ye Luan’s wound with her hand.

She transmitted her special ability from her palm into Ye Luan’s body.

The wound slowly healed and Ye Luan’s pale little face gradually regained its color.

Qiu Tong looked at the black chip and asked in a low voice, “This is what those people are looking for?”

Ye Luan nodded. Qiu Tong looked at the photo in confusion. “Why are you giving it to me?”

Over the past few days, Qiu Tong had tried many times, but Ye Luan had gritted his teeth and refused to reveal any details. But now…

Ye Luan pointed at the photo. “Daddy told me that this thing is very important and I can’t tell anyone about it.”

“Otherwise, not only will my life be in danger, many people will also be harmed. I’ve hesitated many times over whether to tell Auntie Qiu, but I can’t go back on my promise to Daddy…”

Ye Luan lowered his eyes. He recalled his fugitive life over the years and his eyes darkened.

Qiu Tong kept the chip and hugged Ye Luan. “Then why are you willing to give it to me now?”

Ye Luan held the photo. “It’s because of him! I saw him with Daddy before. Daddy said that he is a trustworthy person.”

“And you are his daughter.”

Qiu Tong did not expect them to be linked in this way. She could now sense the huge secret hidden in this tiny chip.

She probed, “What’s in here?”

Ye Luan’s answer was as Qiu Tong had guessed. “Human modification plan.”

So many organizations were fighting over this plan that the government had implemented many years ago.

Qiu Tong thought of Qiu Rong, who was in prison. She could not help wondering if her father was one of them.

Knock, knock. Someone knocked on the door. Qiu Tong and Ye Luan instantly tensed up.

Jin Yang’s voice rang out from the other side. “Are you done packing? The car is outside and ready to leave.”

Qiu Tong quickly replied, “Soon!”

The people in this villa were Qiu Tong’s closest loved ones and were all trustworthy. However, this matter was too important and involved many people. As a result, Qiu Tong did not dare to reveal anything without thinking it through first.

She looked down at Ye Luan and helped him change his bloodstained clothes. “This is a secret between us. You can’t tell anyone.”

“Not even my children and Jin Yang, okay?”

Ye Luan nodded heavily. Although he was only a seven year old child, his intelligence level far surpassed that of an ordinary adult.

Qiu Tong smiled and hooked his little finger in a solemn oath.

…

On the winding mountain road, the vehicle rocked back and forth.

Qiu Tong sat in the front passenger seat and turned around to check on the children. She met Ye Luan’s gaze and instinctively placed her hand on her own lower abdomen.

She had hidden the chip there and it was burning.

Qiu Tong felt as if a wide net was coming down on them. Professor Dong, Ye Luan, the foreign forces and Chen Jia. The human modification plan was like an invisible thread linking everyone together. She tilted her head and looked at Jin Yang, not knowing if she should tell him.

Qiu Tong glanced at the leather folder with the red seal beside Jin Yang.

As the president, how much did he know about the human modification plan?

What was Jin Yang’s view about it?

Blinding sunlight shone through the vehicle’s windscreen. Qiu Tong felt a headache coming on. She covered her face with her hands and lowered her head.

At this moment, many chaotic and complicated memories seemed to sweep over her, but she could not see them clearly.

She seemed to remember hearing Qiu Rong talking to someone…

“Qiu Tong? Are you alright?”

Qiu Tong pursed her lips. Jin Yang held her elbow worriedly and shook it gently. He rummaged for some medicine to soothe motion sickness and handed it to her. “We will be there soon. Hang in there a little longer.”

Qiu Tong nodded. Smelling the lemon orange fragrance of the medicine, she turned to stare at Jin Yang’s profile.

“I think we met somewhere before.”
