After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 946

Chapter 946: Jing Bai is Poisoned
“Let’s go, let’s go!” Upon hearing his agreement, Zhouzhou instantly cheered up, stuffing a pill into his mouth and dragging him outside.

Jing Bai felt a surge of strength returning to him. He looked at Zhouzhou, his gaze deepening as he followed her out.

Noticing this, Ye Lingfeng quickly grabbed Little chubby girl, his brows furrowing. “Where are you going?”

Zhouzhou, brimming with excitement, replied, “We’re going to play! I told my brother that he’ll teach me dissection, and I’ll show him those spirits!”

It was a mutually beneficial arrangement, perfectly balanced.

Hearing this, Ye Lingfeng’s lips twitched slightly as he looked at her, at a loss for words. How did his little girl become so bold? She could play happily with things that others would avoid at all costs.

Zhao Xinghua found it quite amazing too. After some thought, he figured it was actually a good thing. He lowered his voice to Ye Lingfeng and said, “This way, those two can go cause trouble for others, and Zhouzhou stays safe.”

Ye Lingfeng shot him a cool glance, “Safe? What nonsense.”

Didn’t the people from Jing Bai’s lab also teach him a lot? What was the result? He turned around and used those skills to dissect people.

Of course, they were nothing compared to Zhouzhou.

They were all a bunch of inhumane scum. Jing Bai had been so young back then, yet they used him for experiments, causing the deaths of many children at their hands. It was only natural for Jing Bai to take revenge.

But the precondition for all this was that it couldn’t involve Zhouzhou. Otherwise, he wouldn’t agree.

So, to be on the safe side, he grabbed Zhouzhou, not wanting her to leave.

Seeing his intentions, Qin Ren chimed in, “Uncle Ye, I’ll accompany Zhouzhou.”

Besides, today they saw that Jing Bai wasn’t even a match for Zhouzhou; there was no need to worry so much.

As he said, who knew who would be dissecting whom?

Zhao Xinghua added, “You don’t trust Zhouzhou?”

He tried to provoke Ye Lingfeng into believing in his daughter, but Ye Lingfeng just glanced at him, feeling that it wasn’t about trust; it was about safety. Was this something that could just be experimented with? If something went wrong, who would take responsibility?

Seeing him silent, Zhouzhou blinked her big eyes and urged, “Daddy, let go of me! I want to go play!”

She was quite eager.

Ye Lingfeng frowned tightly. “You still dare to play with him?”

Zhouzhou looked at him in surprise. “Why wouldn’t I dare? My brother is fine playing with me!”

She was the strong one, so what was there to fear?

Well, that seemed to make sense?

After pondering for a moment, Ye Lingfeng weighed the pros and cons and finally released his grip. “Be careful.”

“Okay!” Zhouzhou nodded vigorously. As soon as he let go, she grabbed Jing Bai and ran off.

Watching their figures disappear, Ye Lingfeng turned to Zhao Xinghua, “So, why must Zhouzhou be with him?”

“You’ve finally noticed?” Zhao Xinghua rubbed his hands together. Seeing Qin Bei and the others watching him, he pulled Ye Lingfeng back to the neighboring Ye family and said, “Jing Bai like this isn’t a long-term solution. It has to be addressed eventually.”

Ye Lingfeng looked at him, “So your solution is to throw it onto Zhouzhou?”

“Not throwing,” Zhao Xinghua quickly clarified. “Do you believe in fate?”

Ye Lingfeng rolled his eyes at him, staring without wanting to speak.

Zhao Xinghua felt his words were a bit odd. He coughed lightly and continued, “You know Jing Bai’s situation–autism, emotional detachment. Who knows when he might take us all down?”

“A person like him is both a genius and a madman. If used correctly, he’s a sharp blade; if not, he can be terrifying.”

“I’ve consulted many psychologists to try to cure him, but no matter what method I used, it didn’t help him at all.”

“The psychologists told me that a person like him has no attachment to people or the world. To change this, he needs to find something or someone he’s interested in.”

“And right now, what he’s interested in is Zhouzhou.”

Hearing this, Ye Lingfeng frowned, his fingers tapping lightly on his thigh as he carefully considered the matter.

There was no denying that Jing Bai was indeed impressive; many of the world-leading research achievements were developed by him. He was a prodigy, and that no one could dispute.

But as Zhao Xinghua said, he had dual aspects.

In fact, if he were in Zhao Xinghua’s position, seeing Jing Bai interested in Zhouzhou, he would choose to do the same.

But he was Zhouzhou’s father, so he could not be so rational.

After thinking for a moment, he looked up at Zhao Xinghua and said seriously, “Make sure someone takes good care of Zhouzhou. If anything happens to her, I’ll be crazier than him.”

Hearing this, Zhao Xinghua shivered, not feeling that he was being threatened.

After all, he had seen Ye Lingfeng’s mad side.

It was when he learned of An Ya’s death.

Back then, he hadn’t received any professional training, yet he managed to take down the murderers who bullied him in prison through sheer grit.

He had admired this quality about him.

After bringing him out, he trained hard and pushed himself to the limit. It wasn’t until later that he learned to hold back, which made things a bit better.

But deep down, he knew he was just suppressing it; no one knew when it would explode.

Fortunately, Zhouzhou had appeared and saved him.

But likewise, if anything happened to Zhouzhou, he would only become more deranged than before.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xinghua couldn’t help but shiver.

He quickly promised, “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure someone watches them twenty-four-seven. Zhouzhou will not be in any danger!”

That sounded much better.

Ye Lingfeng sighed with relief. If he weren’t so busy lately, he would have gone himself.

Just then, Zhao Xinghua’s informant watching Jing Bai sent back a message.

Looking at the content, Ye Lingfeng raised an eyebrow, unable to help but laugh out loud.

It read: Jing Bai took Zhouzhou into the lab to drink poison. After Zhouzhou drank it, she solved it herself and handed Jing Bai a piece of poison. He’s currently…

The message trailed off, seemingly unsure how to finish.

Instead, a video was sent.

In the video, Jing Bai wore a silly grin, his gaze vacant, his head slightly turning as he stared upward, as if something was up there.

The camera turned, and Zhouzhou was standing on a chair, looking at the bottles and jars on the shelf.

She fed a little white mouse some food, her chubby little hand resting on its pulse. Occasionally, she would let out an “Oh,” pulling out a golden needle and stabbing the stiff little mouse like a hedgehog, then took out her small medicine cauldron and got to work.

The little girl fanned the fire while tossing herbs into the pot. Before long, she produced a bowl of dark concoction and fed it to the little white mouse.

A few minutes later, the mouse twitched its legs, opened its eyes, and in no time, it was jumping around energetically.

Meanwhile, Jing Bai remained in a stupor, gazing blankly at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, as if he had eaten some hallucinogenic mushroom.

Ye Lingfeng: “…”

Zhao Xinghua: “…”
