Chapter 97: Success
Thin white clouds drifted across the sky. The sunlight passed through the gaps in the clouds, casting a layer of pale light that shone on the treetops, which were like a vast expanse of green waves, crystal clear and brilliant.
The round spots of light that fell through the gaps in the leaves shone on little Zhuang Rou’s face, making her can’t help but squint her eyes, so itchy she wanted to scratch them with her dirty little hands.
“Don’t wipe.”
Fei Han saw Zhuang Rou’s dirty little hands, couldn’t help but frown, and pushed a tissue to her.
Because he had a little brother at home, Fei Han’s tolerance for mysophobia had already lowered a lot, but seeing Zhuang Rou’s little hands covered in mud, he still couldn’t help but feel a little uncomfortable.
After getting along for most of the day, Zhuang Rou was already a little familiar with this big brother’s slightly cold temper. She nodded lightly and took out a tissue to wipe her hands.
“Brother Fei Han, I washed the apple very cleanly. You eat it!”
Zhuang Rou wiped her little hands clean and handed the apple she had just picked to Brother Fei Han.
Fei Han was on the phone. Seeing the little girl’s eager little face, his brow still didn’t relax. The refusal was on the tip of his tongue, but in the end, he still didn’t take it and signaled for her to put the apple on the table.
“Fei Jing, are you sure?”
Hearing Fei Jing’s words, Fei Han’s expression also became a little serious, his furrowed brow tinged with a bit of coldness.
Fei Jing thought of that chuunibyou, Lin Mian, from just now and let out a light “hmph.” “It’s highly likely. Unless that person is not a chuunibyou, but a lunatic.”
Thinking of something, Fei Jing added, “And, Father seems to have been deploying in Jing’an District recently.”
Fei Zhiyan had been so busy these past few days he wished he could split himself in two. The moment those troublemaking transmigrators had snuck from Daizhou to Yunzhou, the people he had sent out had already been closely watching them.
Fei Zhiyan also wanted to take this opportunity to completely catch those few who had slipped through the net.
“I don’t think anything will happen to your laboratory. Father should have known their plan long ago. But…”
After all, it’s the laboratory Fei Han cares about most. Fei Jing thought for a moment and, in the end, still chose to tell his eldest brother.
Just for the sake of Fei Han’s hard work, for taking the little girl to pick fruit for Nuonuo.
Fei Han’s tightly pursed lips were a little serious. The light in his eyes flickered a couple of times, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.
“Brother! Have you eaten yet?”
Nuonuo heard his eldest brother’s voice on the phone, tilted his little head to listen for a while, and then quickly leaned his little face close and shouted into the phone in a small voice.
Fei Han was thinking about things with a complicated heart. Suddenly hearing Nuonuo’s milky and energetic voice, he unconsciously relaxed his expression. “I’ve eaten. Have you been a good boy and eaten?”
Perhaps Fei Han himself didn’t realize it, but his tone when facing Nuonuo and outsiders was like a sudden transition from winter to spring.
The ice and snow melted, and all the coldness and hardness had almost turned into a pool of gentle water.
Zhuang Rou, on the side, who had never seen Fei Han show this kind of expression, couldn’t help but blink her eyes. She suddenly thought of her own brother, whose irritable temper would also soften when facing her, and couldn’t help but purse her lips and smile.
Nuonuo also happily nodded his little head and said, “I ate! I ate two bowls!”
Fei Han let out a “hmm.” “Then you’ve been very good.”
They didn’t chat much more. Fei Jing let Zhuang Jie and Zhuang Rou say a few words, and then he hung up the phone.
After sending Zhuang Rou back, Fei Han finally let out a sigh of relief as if he had completed a mission. Within the city’s speed limit, he raced all the way to his laboratory.
On the way, Fei Han’s mind was exceptionally calm as he raced, even thinking about the purpose of those transmigrators.
They had probably also discovered that no matter what, they couldn’t stop Fei Zhiyan’s offensive. Seeing that Fei Han had made some progress in his experiments recently, they had simply decided to go all out and directly destroy the virus reagent that was the source of the apocalypse.
After all, the real beginning of the apocalypse was the moment the zombie virus spread across the globe.
Desperate times call for desperate measures. After being suppressed and attacked by Fei Zhiyan for so long, they were also at a dead end and wanted to take another gamble.
If they succeeded, it would be a large number of points and energy. If they failed, anyway, it wasn’t them who were going deep into the enemy camp to plant a bomb. They could just run away.
As for Lin Mian’s life or death, they didn’t care!
The transmigrators lying in the bushes stared at the direction of the laboratory, waiting with both nervousness and anticipation.
After about ten minutes, a deafening sound came. The people in the bushes saw black smoke and fog coming from the direction of the laboratory, as well as a faint light of fire. They looked at each other for a long while before they let out a “holy shit” and directly jumped up from the ground.
“We succeeded?!”
“Lin Mian is amazing!”
Immersed in a moment of victory and joy, the few transmigrators looked at the leader, Stone, and shouted, “Brother Shi, should we go and see what’s next?”
After all, in their imagination, the probability of success was less than twenty percent. They had never considered the possibility of it being so smooth.
Nuonuo, who had been chatting with his brother for a couple of sentences, was still not satisfied. He held his second brother’s phone with his little hands, poking here and there, as if he were trying to figure out how to make a call.
Fei Jing watched Nuonuo fiddle with his phone in his arms, deliberately raised an eyebrow, and teased him. “It seems Nuonuo likes Eldest Brother more. You’ve already finished talking, but you’re still reluctant to put the phone down.”
Nuonuo let out a little “ya” and looked up. Seeing Fei Jing’s feigned sad expression, he blinked his eyes and quickly said, “No, ya. I like Eldest Brother, and I like Second Brother too!”
Fei Jing let out a light “hmph,” raised his head a little arrogantly, and said relentlessly, “I don’t care. You just like Eldest Brother more!”
Nuonuo was like an old father facing his children fighting for favor. His little bun-like face was tightly wrinkled, and he whimpered for a long while, his motion of fiddling with his phone stopping. “No… no, ya. I like Second Brother, and I like Third Brother and Eldest Brother too.”
Fei Luo, who was walking behind, had to be careful not to bump into other people and create a vacuum for himself.
Hearing his little brother’s words, a hint of light appeared in his big eyes. He pursed his lips and looked up, trying his best to suppress his rising smile as he quickly glanced at his second brother.
Fei Jing saw the little curls on Fei Luo’s head stand up, and the pride in them was so dazzling that he had the illusion of shooting himself in the foot.
“Alright then.”
Thinking about it, he was still a little annoyed. Fei Jing simply reached out and pinched Nuonuo’s little nose.
Nuonuo was trying his best to stare at the phone, which had already gone black. He fiddled with it with his little hands for a few times and suddenly found that he couldn’t breathe. He quickly opened his little mouth and, scared, wrapped his arms around his brother. “Brother, no pinch, ya!”
Nuonuo’s voice was a little muffled, and his little nasal sound was so heavy that Fei Jing almost couldn’t hear what he was saying.
Fei Jing let out a light laugh, a smile reappearing in his eyes. He released his hand and tapped his little head. “I didn’t use any force. You’re not allowed to frame me.”
Under the big sun, Nuonuo didn’t mind the heat and leaned on his brother’s shoulder, obediently saying, “I’m not framing, ya.”
Although I don’t even know what framing is.
“Are we going to play bumper cars?”
His train of thought suddenly jumped to bumper cars, and Nuonuo couldn’t help but become cheerful again. He lifted his little head, and the sunlight shone into his eyes, twinkling.
Fei Jing looked at Nuonuo’s expectant little appearance and really couldn’t say anything to refuse. He took the ticket and led him to the bumper cars.
For a slightly exciting activity like bumper cars, an adult had to accompany them.
Zhuang Jie and Fei Luo were not interested in this kind of game. Their magnetic fields were not on the same channel. They sat in chairs at the entrance, each occupying a corner, with no communication at all.
And Fei Jing naturally accompanied Nuonuo to line up for the ride.
When it was time to get on, at Nuonuo’s strong request, Fei Jing frowned and, with a bit of helplessness, still placed him in the main seat.
“I… I’m super good at driving a little car! Xiaole is not as good as me!”
Tilting his little head up, Nuonuo’s eyes showed a little pride.
Fei Jing, on the other hand, thought of the other’s appearance when he was riding his little motorcycle in the yard, that cautious and slow pace, taking an hour to complete one lap. That yard, it only took a dozen minutes to walk around.
Gently rubbing his forehead, Fei Jing, for some reason, suddenly had a bad premonition.
Thinking that his papa and brothers had all praised him, Nuonuo confidently held the round steering wheel, let out a small breath, and stepped on the accelerator.
He was small, and even his feet were small. He had to use a lot of force to press the accelerator.
Seeing that the other bumper cars had already started to collide, Nuonuo’s little car was still standing still.
Just as Fei Jing was thinking of saying he would do it, finally, this car, at the speed of a crawling turtle, slowly moved forward a small step.
Nuonuo’s little face was tense, his lips tightly pursed, his whole body exuding an air of “I’m very busy, I’m very serious, I’m going to drive the little car seriously.”
Fei Jing had no choice but to close his mouth again, his long legs bent in the small passenger seat, waiting for Nuonuo to continue driving.
And so, the other bumper cars were all driven by adults, with their children colliding fiercely and quickly. Many little children were in the passenger seat, squealing with joy.
And on the other side, Nuonuo’s car had just started from the track, quietly and slowly, as if it were in a world of its own.
Fortunately, everyone had their own independent track, so they didn’t delay others, and the atmosphere at the scene was still lively and cheerful.
Fei Jing propped his chin on his hand and simply took out his phone, taking a few photos and a video of Nuonuo.
He has to record it well. When Nuonuo grows up, he’ll have to send it to him every day without repeating.
The other cars on the field had already “battled” for several rounds, but Nuonuo, who had just entered the field, still drove slowly along the wall with a determined little look in his eyes.
After a fifteen-minute experience, the only collision was when Nuonuo drove his bumper car directly into the front wall.
The reason was that he still hadn’t learned how to turn.
And so, Nuonuo, who had driven in a straight line, started to reverse and played the whole game by himself.
When it was finally over, Fei Jing couldn’t help but let out a breath and quickly stood up from the car.
Nuonuo was picked up by him, still swinging his short little legs, tilting his little face, and looking at his brother with pleading eyes.
That little look was obvious. He was waiting for his brother to praise him.
Fei Jing tried his best to suppress his smile, and after a long while, he finally composed himself and said with a bit of exaggeration, “Wow, Nuonuo drove the car by himself just now. Other little friends can’t do that!”
Being praised, Nuonuo’s little face turned red again. His soft hair covered his eyes, and he said shyly, “I… I just know how to ride a little.”
Fei Jing looked at the little one’s face, which was as red as a little peach. He reached out his demonic claws and pinched it hard, wanting to see if he could really squeeze out some water.
