âDirector Xia, are you in there?â asked the person outside.
Only then was there movement in the frozen scene.
âItâs all because of you!â said Fan Fan as she bit her cherry lips and climbed carefully off of Xia Lei.
Xia Lei got up from the floor as well. A circle of black oil was on his butt, but that wasnât the most embarrassing place on his body. The most awkward area was between his legs, where a very stiff member saluted the sky.
Fan Fanâs eyes peeked at his member from the corner of her eyes. Her wide eyes made her seem like a person who had found a sweet juicy sugar cane after wandering around the desert.
Xia Lei stood, and sighed to himself. Having a woman of a special constitution was really interesting. She was like the grass in the wintertime. Nothing would happen when she was on her own, but she would burst into flames the moment you gave her a little fire.
âStill looking? Youâre such a bully,â said Fan Fan with a red face.
Xia Lei laughed awkwardly and didnât know what to say.
Xia Lei opened the door after Fan Fan tidied herself up.
A Thunder Horse Military Factory security guard captain stood in the workshop entrance.
âWhat is it?â Xia Lei had just been disturbed in his happy moment, but he wasnât angry.
The security guard captain said, âDirector Xia, thereâs someone at the door who says heâs here to see you but he wonât tell us his identity or his name. Chief Lu isnât here either so I came over to ask you, Director Xia.â
âAll right, I got it. You can go over first and take him to my office. Iâll be right there,â said Xia Lei.
âYes, Director Xia.â The security guard captain left.
âCould it be my grandfather?â said Fan Fan.

âIs your grandfather coming?â replied Xia Lei.
âI told you before that my grandfather is coming too. He said that this would be advantageous for the Alloy X Project research," said Fan Fan
Of course Xia Lei knew about this. He secretly rejoiced that he had settled Fan Fan. If he hadnât just settled Fan Fan and Fan Yiming had come, he wouldnât have a chance to deal with her. However, he still felt a little uneasy because what he did wasnât actually enough. He still needed to work harder and settle Fan Fan completely before Fan Yiming found out.
âIâll go take a look. You can wait here,â said Xia Lei.
However, Fan Fan wanted to go as well. âI want to take a look too.â
âAll right, letâs go together.â
âWait up.â Fan Fan suddenly reached for Xia Leiâs trousers.
Xia Lei subconsciously took a step back and somewhat anxiously said, âWhat are you doing? Weâre outside.â
Fan Fan blushed. âYour fly is open. Iâll help you pull it up.â
Xia Lei was speechless.
He didnât know when his zipper had opened but he knew that Fan Fan had definitely pulled it down. He really wouldnât have expected that a female scientist, who seemed pure and innocent, was instead cold on the outside but passionate on the inside.
When they arrived at the office, Xia Lei saw Fan Yiming and another stranger. He was about 30 to 40 years old with an average build, and also looked very ordinary. However, his eyes gave one a very deep impression. They were like those of an eagle, sharp and unfathomable.
âWho is this?â thought Xia Lei to himself. âWhy did this person come here with Fan Yiming?â
At this moment, Fan Yiming laughingly said, âMr Xia, let me introduce you to someone. This is my student. His name is Song Baicheng. Oh, he can be considered to be in the same trade, and he has a high level of mastery in the materials science field.â
When Fan Yiming introduced Song Baicheng, Xia Lei glanced at Fan Fan from the corner of his eye and discovered that Fan Fan was staring at Song Baicheng.

Fan Fanâs reaction roused Xia Leiâs suspicions. âIf this Song Baicheng was actually Fan Yimingâs student, Fan Fan would definitely recognise him, and she wouldnât stare at him like this, right? She didnât even greet him. If he isnât Fan Yimingâs student, then why would Fan Yiming say he was? Could this Song Baicheng be⌠from the ZN Bureau?â
âHehe.â Song Baicheng walked up and took the initiative to shake Xia Leiâs hand. He wore a fawning smile on his face as he said, âMr Xia, it is wonderful to meet you after hearing so much about you. Nice meeting you, nice meeting you.â
Even though Xia Lei had already begun to be suspicious of this Song Baichengâs identity, he remained calm on the outside. He shook Song Baichengâs hand and said with a laugh, âMr Song is too polite. I respect scientists like you the most. Nice to meet you!â
Fan Yiming said, âMr Xia, Iâm planning to stay for several days. Iâve come to assist Fan Fan in her work and to move the Alloy X Project forward. What do you think?â
âElder Fan, of course this wonât be a problem. You can stay here as long as youâd like,â said Xia Lei. He spoke pleasantries.
Fan Yiming added, âBaicheng would also like to stay. He is my assistant. This should be fine, right?â
Xia Lei laughed. âOf course thatâs not a problem. I will get some people to arrange for a place for you to stay.â
Song Baicheng said, âYou donât need to make any special arrangements. Elder Fan and I can just live in the villa and you can just give us any two rooms.â
This Song Baicheng knew about the villa even though it was the first time heâd come. Heâd clearly come prepared. The probability that he was someone from the ZN Bureau had already exceeded 50%.
Fan Yiming followed with, âYes yes. We can just live in the villa. I heard Fan Fan mention that your laboratory is also there so thatâd be good for work if we stayed there.â
âNo problem, you guys can stay there. Come with me, Iâll take you there,â said Xia Lei.
Xia Lei led Fan Yiming, Song Baicheng and Fan Fan to the villa. He arranged rooms for Fan Yiming and Song Baicheng, and Fan Yiming suggested they go to Xia Leiâs laboratory to take a look, so Xia Lei led everyone to his laboratory to look around.
âI really want to see that metal,â said Song Baicheng as he stared at the safe.
âIf you would really like to take a look, Mr Song, I can take it out and show it to you,â said Xia Lei with a smile.
Song Baicheng clearly seemed quite tempted, he made an opposite decision in the next moment. âNever mind. I heard this type of metal is very dangerous and only Mr Xia can touch it to date. Iâll wait for a better opportunity to take a look.â

They left the underground laboratory, and Song Baicheng suggested they go look around Fan Fanâs laboratory.
Fan Fan brought Song Baicheng and Fan Yiming to her laboratory, but before they entered, Xia Lei said, âYou guys can go. I wonât be going. I have to go to the workshop. Thunder Horse Military Factory is being upgraded. I really donât have enough time. If you need anything, you can just call me.â
âMr Xia, you can go do what you need to do. Weâll call you if we need anything,â said Fan Yiming.
Fan Fan glanced at Xia Lei, and her expression was rather complicated. She clearly hadnât shaken off her earlier experience yet. If it hadnât been for her grandfather and this Song Baicheng coming to Thunder Horse Military Factory, and the security guard knocking on the door, she didnât know what wouldâve happened between them next. She didnât know why, but instead of being afraid of herself and Xia Lei getting to that point, she was looking forward to it.
âFan Fan, go and bring your grandfather and Mr Song around,â said Xia Lei.
âOkay, see you later,â said Fan Fan with a faint smile.
See you later? Was this a hint?
Xia Lei smiled and left.
Xia Lei didnât go straight towards the new workshop when he exited the villa. Instead, he took out his phone and pretended to call someone while standing downstairs. His left eye locked on to Fan Fanâs laboratory and then he awakened his X-ray ability.
Fan Fanâs laboratory was on the first floor. Xia Lei, at the villaâs entrance, only needed to look through one wall to what was going on in the laboratory.
In the laboratory, Song Baicheng was looking at the file that Fan Fan had created on her laptop while she talked to Fan Yiming next to him.
Xia Lei used his lip-reading skill to decipher Fan Yiming and Fan Fanâs conversation.
âGrandfather, Mr Song isnât your student. Why did you say that? â asked Fan Fan.
âMr Song is⌠Donât ask about something you shouldnât ask about, and just do your job well,â replied Fan Yiming.
Fan Fan pouted. âBig Brother Lei doesnât like it when I treat him like a lab mouse, and I donât know who wants us to do this. I canât explain it to him either. This isnât fair to him. Heâs a hero of our country. He isnât an experimental lab mouse.â

âThis is something big for all of humanity. No one can stop it,â said Fan Yiming. âI believe Xia Lei will understand.â
At this moment, Song Baicheng finished reading Fan Fanâs document. He turned to face Fan Fan with a mildly annoyed expression. âThereâs only this much? There isnât anything about the key parts.â
âI, I already began doing that.â Fan Fan seemed a little nervous.
âWas Xia Lei unwilling?â asked Song Baicheng.
âNo, heâs always been very cooperative with me. But...heâs too busy,â said Fan Fan.
Song Baicheng looked at Fan Yiming. âElder Fan, this is very important. We canât have anymore delays. I want to have a complete understanding of Xia Leiâs body in a week. Can you do that? If you guys canât do that, I will replace you with new people.â
âWe can do it,â said Fan Yiming.
Fan Fan looked as if she was about to say something, but Fan Yiming touched her elbow to tell her not to.
Song Baicheng said, âIn this week, I will help you complete your job. If Xia Lei rejects it, I will pressure him. If he cooperates, I wonât do anything and Iâll wait for you to produce results. Do you have any questions?â
âNo,â said Fan Yiming.
âI donât have questions either.â Fan Fan replied quickly, but she was frowning slightly.
Xia Lei stopped using his X-ray vision. This Song Baicheng was from the ZN Bureau, 100%!
He understood completely why Fan Fan would frown because she knew he objected to her research. It wasnât actually difficult to see that Fan Fanâs heart sided with him though she worked for ZN Bureau. If she didnât, she wouldnât have lied to Song Baicheng and Fan Yiming and tell them he was very cooperative.
âI bully her so much and she is still willing to help me. Sheâs so nice to me, yet Iâm thinking of ways to get her in bed and accomplish my goals⌠I really am a thug!â Xia Lei shook his head and laughed bitterly, feeling guilty.
But he still needed to do what he had to do!
