Chapter 28: Unprecedented Aptitude User (1/2)

Sugar’s tearful eyes flashed with a glimmer of hopefulness, as if afraid that everything in front of her would suddenly disappear like a dream. She timidly stretched out her hand but then hesitated and pulled it back just before reaching Shen Cheng’s hand.

Shen Cheng suddenly stretched his hand and grabbed Sugar’s retreating slender hand, feeling the coldness that struck his heart with pain.

With a little force, Shen Cheng pulled Sugar up. Looking at the silent Sugar with her head down, Shen Cheng gently stroked Sugar’s head, feeling the slight tremor of the girl’s body, and spoke with a soft smile, “Welcome home, Sugar.”

In the next moment, a silently sobbing Sugar suddenly threw herself into Shen Cheng’s arms.

Momentarily taken by surprise, Shen Cheng dropped his umbrella, noticing that the rain had stopped. The moon shone bright in the sky, stars spread across, illuminating the heavens.

As if it was pre-arranged, at the moment Sugar rushed into his embrace, all the streetlights simultaneously lit up along the street.

The dim lamplight illuminated the street, reflecting off water puddles, appearing brighter than usual, mirroring the starry sky above.

“Woo… woo… ah… woo woo ah ah…”

With her head buried in Shen Cheng’s chest, her slender arms held tight without loosening. Sugar wept like a fountain, crying loudly, her sobs filled the air, exuding a heartrending sorrow.

Recovering from a moment of helplessness, Shen Cheng silently wrapped his arms around Sugar, gently stroking her soft hair and back, giving her the utmost comfort he could offer.

——Welcome home, Sugar. From now on, don’t go anywhere…

…

Capital City, Bio-Scientific Institute.

As the country’s secret research institute, the security here could be described as having one guard every ten steps both inside and outside.

Passing through layers of checkpoints, located inside was the center of the Bio-Scientific Institute.

Watching the bustling scene of figures in lab coats moving busily, Shao Silin, squinting, crossed his arms and asked Liu Su beside him with a smile, “What do you think the genetic compatibility rate for Boss Shen’s demi-humans is?”

“…Definitely not low,” Liu Su replied confidently, trusting her intuition. “Your intuition is generally right, and that’s what I think too.” Shrugging, Shao Silin directed his gaze towards the huge screen in the center of the research lab.

Underneath the screen was a comparatively small black display platform with two slots.

One slot contained a vial of emerald green liquid, while the other slot held a vial of red blood — the very blood Shao Silin had drawn from Shen Cheng before arriving.

Around the black platform were identical-looking computers, with several researchers solemnly seated behind them. Only one conspicuously striking female stood in the center.

The reason the female appeared very striking was due to the two tufts of russet bird feathers on her head.

From this, it could be deduced that this female was likely a demi-human, as clearly labeled with the words on her lab coat name badge: Yu Lan.

“Blood information connected.”

“Cat demi-human gene reagent connected.”

“Connection completed.”

“Pairing can start at any time.”
