Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat! Chapter 152 - 24: The Drama Queen Sister Refuses to Be Canno

Before Jiang Chao could speak, Jiang Lai, who was devouring an egg pancake beside him, lifted his head to glance at the old man, then laughed and spoke.

"Hey, old man, why do you talk like this is your ho? We have to work for our als, what about you?"

"Hmph, I’ve invested in this place. I’m the biggest shareholder, so of course, it’s my ho. As for you, you were brought in because you have so usefulness."

Jiang Lai nodded thoughtfully, glanced at the guards holding guns at the door, and then shouted loudly.

"Since this is your turf, from now on, my brother and I must flatter you well!"

Jiang Lai’s shout was heard by everyone, and for a mont, the old man’s face turned a bit sour, his expression struggling to maintain the elegant smile he just had. He tugged a napkin, picked up his tray, and left, his steps seeming sowhat hurried and awkward.

"Hey, old man, where are you going? If this base is all yours, the ones who should leave should be us!"

The old man ignored her, picking up the pace.

"Death Value: 10."

Jiang Chao glanced helplessly at Jiang Lai.

"Just arrived and already making enemies, you little girl never give peace of mind."

Jiang Lai raised her eyebrows helplessly; she was safe now, not like outside where death could happen anyti, so she could only find small opportunities to play with danger.

Currently, her Death Value was over three thousand seven hundred, still far from the target.

"Tsk, this old man won’t do."

After eating, Yan Zhouxing was so full he could barely walk, if it wasn’t strictly prohibited to take food out of the cafeteria, he would have taken all the leftover bread to keep for a midnight snack.

Just out of the cafeteria, Jiang Lai naturally pulled out a box stuffed full from her pocket, weighing heavily in her hand.

Yan Zhouxing saw it and praised repeatedly.

"Why didn’t I think of this thod!"

Jiang Chao saw her secretly bringing out food and asked with concern.

"Didn’t you eat enough earlier?"

"I’m stuffed. This is for Lin Yan, who knows where he’s gone off to; he’ll complain about being hungry if he skips dinner."

This tone, this deanor, these words...

Yan Zhouxing silently glanced at Jiang Chao, nudging him with his elbow, his expression conveying everything.

Back in the room, Lin Yan was not there, and Yan Zhouxing slipped next to Jiang Chao, who was exercising, and worriedly mumbled.

"Do you think our little Jiang Lai is a bit too good to Lin Yan?"

There are fitness equipnt in the room, Jiang Chao was doing pull-ups, his bare arms flexing with strong muscles, yet his voice remained steady.

"Is she?"

"Don’t deceive yourself, your sister definitely likes him! Day after day, finding food and drink for him, nursing him when injured, watching over him when he has a fever; don’t you know, while we were uncertain of life in the abyss, your sister was busy rescuing that boy.

Now we’ve reached the base, and she’s still concerned he hasn’t had dinner. Does she rember when you haven’t eaten?"

Jiang Chao’s expression changed, he let go of the bar and jumped down, wiping sweat with a towel, his tone a bit dissatisfied.

"That girl is indeed acting strange, but what can I do, she’s grown..."

If only mom were here, how could he, as a brother, talk about emotional issues with his sister?

"Master, I feel that Lin Yan isn’t soone worth trusting; too fragile, no ability, and most importantly, indifferent towards Jiang Lai, so proud yet so delicate, always needing Jiang Lai to support and protect him."

Jiang Chao thought he made so good points.

"Anyway, we now have Little Eight; he’s not much of a doctor anymore, let’s leave him behind during our operations, this base is safe, bringing him here we have done enough."

"Hmm, I understand, I’ll clarify it with him tonight."

But Lin Yan never returned all night.

The food Jiang Lai had for him ended up in Yan Zhouxing’s stomach.

The next morning Jiang Chao asked Jiang Lai.

"Where did Lin Yan go last night?"

"Didn’t return? How should I know?"

Jiang Chao heard her say that and was relieved, his imagination had run wild thinking the boy was up to sothing, sneaking into his sister’s room at night.

It’s good he didn’t co back, as long as he’s not in Jiang Lai’s room, he can go anywhere.

"He didn’t co back all night?"

Jiang Lai was sowhat worried, fearing he might die outside.

This scene changed in Jiang Chao’s eyes, giving it a different taste.

He frowned, his gaze heavy, hesitated for a mont before about to ask sothing but then Lin Yan, who hadn’t been back all night, suddenly returned.

Jiang Lai directly ignored her brother and walked up to him.

"Where did you go?"

"Sleeping, just woke up."

"Where did you sleep last night?"

This question was odd, Jiang Chao held his breath, staring at Lin Yan, who did not feel awkward at all and replied earnestly to Jiang Lai.

"I found Andre and got a room switch."

"Andre? Is it the Andre I know?"

Lin Yan nodded.

Jiang Chao couldn’t hold back and asked.

"You knew Andre before?"

"He knows , I don’t know him."

"..."

Jiang Chao kept staring at him.

"Why does he know you?"

Just a research institute mber, why does he act so impressive?

Lin Yan shook his head.

"You should ask him, not ."

Jiang Lai pulled him aside to ask.

"What did you talk about with Andre last night?"

Lin Yan watched her grip his wrist, didn’t say much, letting her hold it.

"Not much to talk about, showed him sothing he needed."

"Wow, you’re impressive! The big boss of Zero Base needs you, great, now soone’s got your back, they’ll have all the fresh proteins and vitamins you need here, plus it’s safe and comfortable, you just follow Andre obediently."

Instantly Jiang Lai felt the burden on her shoulders lighten considerably, her spirits lifted significantly.

Andre in the entire plot can be said to be the highest leader, in the end, the female lead Gu Han Yan was nearly becoming the Master of the Apocalypse, only because she defeated Andre, replacing him to beco the chief of Zero Base.

This shows Andre’s strength, capable of effortlessly protecting soone like Lin Yan.

Jiang Lai spoke with such ease, completely unaware of Lin Yan’s increasingly deep, cold light in his eyes.

He stared at Jiang Lai, voice unchanged but his tone carried a peculiar aning.

"You want to leave with Andre?"

"Such harsh words, what do you an by leave? It’s called entrustnt! With him, you’ll have a better life, can continue your research, I believe in you, with his help you’ll surely develop the cure to save mankind!"

Lin Yan chuckled lightly, the smile not reaching his eyes, cold and icy.

"Save mankind?"
