Chapter 258: Su Xiaoli

The room was a mess, various clothes piled haphazardly on the sofa, and Chu Yang even saw a cartoon‑style pair of panties.

"Ah!"

Su Xiaoli was momentarily flustered, quickly stepped forward to block with her body, her face flushed as she said, "President Chu… it's a bit messy… why don't we just go outside to talk?"

Chu Yang waved his hand and said, "Just a few words, no need to make it so troublesome."

A flash of disappointment crossed Su Xiaoli's eyes; she cleared some space on the sofa for Chu Yang to sit, while she stood beside him like a student meeting a teacher.

Chu Yang pulled a bank card from his pocket, placed it on the table, and said softly, "I want to support you, requiring you to be at my beck and call and obey all my arrangements, but I won't interfere with your daily life."

"If you agree, the card will be yours, and five million will be deposited into it each month."

"Of course, you can also refuse, entirely voluntarily."

Chu Yang didn't beat around the bush; he got straight to the point, and his words left Su Xiaoli feeling both shocked and stunned.

When Chu Yang first sponsored her, he made no demands, as if expecting no return, but he never imagined that years later, she would directly propose a sponsorship! Coming to her senses, Su Xiaoli didn't hesitate either; she grabbed the bank card and said, "Fine!"

Chu Yang wasn't surprised by the outcome, only a bit amazed at Su Xiaoli's decisiveness.

But he knew that Su Xiaoli wasn't a casual woman; in all those years she hadn't had a boyfriend nor any affair with a man.

Upon further thought, Chu Yang realized that his casual, wide‑netting move years ago had taken effect.

Su Xiaoli's case is unique; her genes are saturated with an irresistible fragrance that could wreak havoc on all beings.

Because of this, her ancestors were almost all prostitutes or mistresses generation after generation, and this gene passes through females only, or more precisely, it cannot produce boys at all.

At the same time, Su Xiaoli isn't considered a human under the divine or civilized system; her thoughts and emotions differ greatly from normal people.

Her feelings cannot sync with humanity, and because of that, nothing in this world matters to her.

She doesn't love her family, doesn't love this country, nor the Earth.

Yet Chu Yang's appearance back then changed Su Xiaoli…

When she was in despair, being helped by someone who asked for nothing in return made her feel gratitude for the first time.

It was like a key that opened a gate, and also like deciphering the genetic code that locked her emotions.

In these past few years, Su Xiaoli has experienced unprecedented joy; she gets angry over disputes with others and feels sad when watching tragic dramas…

Thus, to her, Chu Yang is like a creator, adding color to her black‑and‑white world.

"In that case, I'll have someone at Bei Zhi Xing arrange your residence…"

Saying that, Chu Yang took out a phone, handed it to her, and continued, "This phone contains my number; you can contact me directly if anything comes up, and I'll also use this phone to reach you."

"Unless I need something, I won't interfere with your daily life."

Hearing him say that, Su Xiaoli's face flushed again.

Because that "when I need something" sounded to her nothing but a reference to physical needs.

Just as her mind wandered, Chu Yang added, "If you have any requests, you can voice them too."

Su Xiaoli waved her hands repeatedly and said, "President Chu, you've already given enough!"

"Strictly speaking, this isn't a transaction but a matter of cause and effect."

Chu Yang smiled, "Because you're my lover, the five million each month is your allowance from me."

"You don't need to be so formal; just call me by my name."

After saying that, as Chu Yang was about to leave, the door suddenly knocked.

"It must be a delivery this time!" Su Xiaoli hurried over to open the door.

With Chu Yang present, she wasn't afraid of anyone scheming against her.

But when the door opened, Su Xiaoli was stunned.

Standing at the doorway was not a delivery person but a pretty girl in jeans and a red jacket with flaming red hair, and a man in a suit wearing sunglasses.

"Who are you?" Su Xiaoli asked, puzzled.

Qiang Wei maintained her usual icy demeanor; the man in sunglasses produced an ID, waved it, and said, "We're from the Special Department; we'd like to discuss something with you."

Su Xiaoli didn't let them in, and said directly, "Special Department? I haven't broken any laws, have I?"

The man in sunglasses smiled and said, "You've misunderstood; we want you to join us."

"Recruit me?" Su Xiaoli was stunned again.

The man in sunglasses twitched the corner of his mouth, then, a bit speechless, said, "You could put it that way."

"Why me? And why should I join?" Su Xiaoli asked, suspicious.

The man in sunglasses cleared his throat and said, "You possess some special potential; if you're willing to join, we…"

Before he could finish, Qiang Wei interjected, "Join us, and we'll fill you with magic, then find you a tall, genuine man!"

The man in sunglasses was speechless, rubbing his forehead, unable to commend Qiang Wei's recruitment tactic.

Su Xiaoli blinked and said, "Your terms are very tempting, but I just found that true, tall man a moment ago!"

"Sorry, I won't join you."

Saying that, she slammed the door shut.

Qiang Wei was a little stunned; the department had been monitoring Su Xiaoli for years, or more precisely, monitoring every person with a super gene.

Because of that, she knew Su Xiaoli's history and personality extremely well, and believed she had offered a condition the other could not refuse.

But she never expected that she would be rejected!

Qiang Wei glanced back at the man in sunglasses, frowned, and asked, "Who is she talking about?"

The man in sunglasses shook his head blankly and said, "I don't know; there probably isn't such a person."

At that moment, the door opened again, and as the two thought Su Xiaoli was changing her mind, a familiar figure stepped out.

"Yo, what a coincidence," Chu Yang said casually, then walked toward the elevator.

"It's you!"

Qiang Wei instantly understood what was happening, hurried forward, reached out to push Chu Yang's back, trying to pin him against the wall while demanding:

Damn it! What exactly is your purpose?

Chu Yang, however, seemed to have eyes in the back of his head; he turned sideways to dodge Qiangwei's palm, then with a reverse hand grabbed her forearm, using a standard grappling move, and instead pressed her against the wall.

Qiangwei's eyes flickered, her figure instantly vanished, and when she reappeared, she had already flashed behind Chu Yang.

Chu Yang feigned surprise, raising his eyebrows, but his motion was in no way slow; he lifted his leg and delivered a side kick.

Qiangwei didn't expect his reaction to be so fast; she didn't even have time to raise her arm to block, yet Chu Yang's kick sent her flying, slamming heavily into the hallway wall.

All of this was seen by Mojingnan and Su Xiaoli standing at the doorway. Even Mojingnan's sunglasses couldn't hide the shock on his face; he simply couldn't imagine that someone could suppress a super warrior like Qiangwei with sheer skill alone! Su Xiaolizi's eyes were full of little stars, thinking Chu Yang was incredibly handsome!

She was well aware of the fate of her lineage; the allure contained in her beauty and genes is something no man can refuse.

But this instead became their sorrow; few meet a good end.

Compared to eventually becoming a caged canary for others, the young, handsome, wealthy and powerful Chu Yang, who has helped her and is even 'strong and healthy,' is undoubtedly the better choice.

The elevator doors opened with a 'ding,' and Chu Yang, ignoring Qiangwei, walked straight into the elevator.

Qiangwei rose from the floor, gritted her teeth, and snapped, 'Damn it!'

She turned her head to Mojingnan and shouted angrily, 'Stop him!'

Mojingnan nodded, pressed the Bluetooth earpiece on his ear, and said softly, 'Everyone, move—stop Chu Yang!'

Back then, he stopped Qiangwei from acting because he didn't want her to reveal her abilities in front of ordinary people.

But now Chu Yang has repeatedly interfered with their efforts to recruit super warriors, seriously affecting the higher-ups' plan.

Moreover, just now even Qiangwei suffered a loss at his hands, showing that this person is no ordinary individual.

Regardless of the reason, it is necessary to bring Chu Yang back for questioning.

Qiangwei's figure instantly appeared before Su Xiaoli, and she whispered, 'See? If you join us, you'll have power like mine.'

Su Xiaoli pursed her lips and muttered, 'Not really—I was knocked flat by my man.'

Having said that, she slammed the door shut.

Last time we were courteous because they meant no harm.

This time, we're not giving face because they intend to act against Chu Yang! Qiangwei nearly got hit by the door panel, her anger growing, and she took Mojingnan down another elevator.

But when they reached the ground floor, they found twenty-odd figures collapsed at the apartment entrance.

All of them were in suits, now each either clutching their head, arms, or legs, groaning in pain there.

"This..." Mojingnan stared wide-eyed.

You have to know, this department of theirs is extremely special; anyone who can join as an ordinary person must at least be a battalion king of a certain military region! Yet now, twenty-odd battalion kings seem to have all been taken down by Chu Yang alone.

He couldn't help but wonder if he himself wasn't a super warrior.

Qiangwei seemed to have realized this as well, her expression turning grave as she pulled out her phone and dialed a number.

Once the call connected, she said directly, 'Investigate Chu Yang of the New World Group; this person is suspected of having super genes and has repeatedly obstructed the Heroic Soldier Legion plan.'

After she hung up, Mojingnan approached and asked tentatively, 'What should we do next? Should we keep looking for Su Xiaoli?'

Qiangwei glanced upstairs, shook her head, and said, 'No need. Pull up the surveillance here, then head back to report.'

Mojingnan nodded and hurried away.

Tianhe City.

Chu Yang returned to his villa, called the North Star side, and had them arrange Su Xiaoli's affairs.

Within just half an hour, they replied that Su Xiaoli's new lodging had already been arranged.

Chu Yang knew that he had repeatedly ruined Qiangwei's plans, and given her personality, she would certainly not let it go.

Just as he was wondering whether to seize the opportunity to obtain a bit of Qiangwei's blood, the sound of an iris scanner unlocking suddenly came from the doorway.

Next, Qilin in a police uniform walked in, looking quite dashing, though her expression was somewhat urgent.

Seeing Chu Yang, Qilin didn't even bother to change her shoes, walked straight over, sat on the sofa, and said, 'Chu Yang, the National Security Bureau came to see me today!'

They must be a special department wanting me to join!

Chu Yang raised his eyebrows; this was within his expectations, only he hadn't expected them to come so quickly.

He smiled and asked, 'What do you think?'

Qilin shrugged and said, 'Of course I refused!'

"Being so mysterious, if I joined, I'd probably hardly ever see you."

"Turns out you just can't bear to part with me!" Chu Yang gave a wicked grin.

Qilin pinched him, then turned serious and said, 'I suspect this special department is likely related to the super warriors.'

Chu Yang nodded and said, 'Exactly. I've dealt with them before; the government is gathering people with super genes, preparing to fight extraterrestrials.'

"Are the aliens really coming?" Qilin worried.

Chu Yang saw through her thoughts, smiled, and said, 'Actually, you could join them and, on the side, help me figure out how to obtain some super warrior blood samples.'

"You want me to become a spy?" Qilin's eyes widened.

Chu Yang waved his hand and said, 'Don't put it so harshly; I just want some blood samples, and it's not anything that violates morals, laws, or even betrays Earth.'

Moreover, with the blood samples I could also find ways to keep you growing stronger, which counts as indirectly supporting your protection of Earth.

Hearing him say that, Qilin blinked, feeling there was some sense to it, yet she remained hesitant.

Having just confirmed her relationship with Chu Yang, now facing separation, her heart filled with reluctance.

Chu Yang suddenly said, 'Actually, you can negotiate some terms with them; your genetic abilities are important to them, so they surely won't refuse.'

"Conditions?" Qilin blinked, then her eyes lit up instantly.

Exactly!

She can negotiate terms with them! Thinking this, Qilin looked at Chu Yang, seemingly seeking his final opinion.

Chu Yang smiled and said, 'I know you want to join, and I support your decision.'

Qilin is a very just person; she usually rushes to the front line at the police station. For such a major matter concerning the crisis of all humanity and Earth, she naturally wants to contribute.

"Contact them! But in the conditions, you need to add that they must help you awaken the Super Gene in advance!"

Chu Yang said solemnly: "After you awaken, come find me; I'll give you a gift."

Seeing her boyfriend so supportive of her career, Qilin's eyes flickered, she felt a surge of emotion, suddenly got up and kissed Chu Yang on the face, then ran off a little flustered.

Chu Yang pursed his lips and muttered: "So restrained? I wonder if, after experiencing the baptism of the battlefield, when we meet again I'll just be thrown down forcibly."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, looking out the window at the sky, slightly narrowing his eyes.

"Demon Civilization... Demon Gene..."

The next moment, Chu Yang's figure disappeared into the room, and on the horizon a sudden flash of light streaked upward against the wind! (End of chapter)
