The only SSSS-level fertility constitution in the entire interstellar space

The terminal connected, and A-Feng took a deep breath. The busy tone of the waiting line sounded particularly jarring in the deathly silent interrogation room, each sound striking his taut nerves.

It rang seven or eight times before the other end finally answered.

Qin Shu's voice came through the speaker, clearly displeased, and there seemed to be another man muttering in the background.

"Who is it? Calling at this hour, how annoying!"

"Shushu, it's me, Afeng." Afeng's voice trembled as he tried to suppress it, managing to squeeze out what he thought was a hint of relief, "I'm out! Fu Ciyan had no evidence, so he released me!"

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end, followed by rustling sounds, and then Qin Shu's voice suddenly rose: "Really? Fu Ciyan let you go? Where are you now?"

Upon hearing this, a tender look appeared in Ah Feng's eyes: "I'm in a very safe place now, don't worry, Shu Shu. I just wanted to tell you not to worry about me. Once things calm down, I'll come back to find you. Shu Shu, do you remember what you promised me?"

"What did I promise you?" Qin Shu's voice sounded somewhat confused, then carried a hint of deliberate coquettishness, "Ah Feng, it's good that you're out. Don't do anything risky like this again."

Ah Feng felt a warmth in his heart, and his tone became even more urgent: "Shu Shu, don't worry, I'm willing to do anything for you! You promised me you'd be my match, so I'm coming to find you now, okay? We can start the process right now, Shu Shu, you won't lie to me, right?"

"Ah Feng!" Qin Shu's tone instantly turned impatient. "Have you forgotten our agreement? You'd help me get rid of that bitch Lu Yao's troubles before I'd be with you. Now that she's alive and well, why should I be with a piece of trash like you? Stop daydreaming!"

The word "trash" pierced Ah Feng's heart, shattering his last pitiful illusions.

However, as if that wasn't enough of a thrill, a man's voice came from Qin Shu's end: "Baby, are you chatting with that simp A-Feng? Is he still fantasizing that you'll be with him?"

"Hehe, keep your voice down, don't let him hear... Ugh, what's wrong? Ugh, I'm still talking!"

The receiver carried the soft rustling of clothes, a man's muffled teasing, and Qin Shu's half-hearted, coquettish "You're so annoying."

Every syllable pierced Ah Feng's eardrums.

His hand, gripping the terminal, was trembling violently, his knuckles turning bluish-white from the force.

Nightshade sneered, the call ended, and he looked at Ah Feng, whose face was deathly pale: "So, can you talk now?"

Ah Feng did not answer immediately.

He lowered his head, his gaze fixed on his hand, which was twitching slightly from exertion.

The stark white light in the interrogation room shone on his bloodless face, casting a cold shadow.

It turns out that from beginning to end, she never intended to be with him; she just thought he was the most obedient and the most useful person.

Ha ha……

After a long while, he finally raised his head very slowly.

He looked at the night harrier, his lips twitching very slightly, as if he wanted to force a mocking smile, but he had no strength left for it.

"That's fine."

When Lu Yao was discharged from the hospital, she made a point of greeting Xie Linyu. He needed to stay in the hospital for two more days due to health reasons, and then, as agreed with Fu Ciyan, he would stay at their home.

Fortunately, they are now living in a villa with plenty of rooms; otherwise, if they were living in her previous apartment, Xie Linyu would have had to sleep on the living room sofa.

Just thinking about it is embarrassing.

When she arrived, Director Wang and the rest of the crew were there, clearly there to visit her.

Upon seeing Lu Yao, Director Wang immediately stood up: "Teacher Lu Yao, are you feeling better? I was really scared when I heard about what happened to you two. I'm so glad that you and Lin Yu are both alright."

Lu Yao and Xie Linyu exchanged a glance; clearly, the information about Xie Linyu's health had not been leaked.

"It was quite scary, but thankfully it ended without serious injury. I also owe a lot to Actor Xie who was there at the time, because I made him suffer a lot."

"Teacher Lu Yao, don't blame yourself. It was an accident, no one wanted it. By the way, I have some good news for you. The editing of 'Temptation of Wife' has been completed and it was submitted for review yesterday. If all goes well, it can be officially broadcast on Qingning Channel next Monday. I just asked Lin Yu, and he said that he can start filming normally next week. I think he can rest a little longer and get his health back. We can start filming other people's scenes first."

"It's alright, I'm fine." Xie Linyu took over the conversation before Lu Yao could speak.

Upon hearing this, Director Wang could only sigh and say, "Alright then, we'll do it your way. Originally, Teacher Chen Yu, Producer He, and Su Qian were all going to come, but I felt that too many people would disturb you, so I didn't let them. We didn't even get to have dinner together last time. When you come back, we'll have a special dinner together."

After Director Wang left, the ward became quiet.

Xie Linyu turned his head to look at Lu Yao, who was standing by the window: "Going back already?"

Lu Yao nodded, then hesitated for a moment: "Really not going to rest for a few more days? Director Wang can coordinate something."

"No need." Xie Linyu leaned back against the headboard, his fingertips unconsciously tracing the edge of the bandage, and said, "Lying down only makes me overthink. It's better to get to the set sooner and have something to do."

He paused, then looked up at Lu Yao. His blue eyes, usually lazy and playful, were now unusually serious. "You don't need to worry about me. I'm really fine. Besides, you even made an appointment with a doctor for me. I'll go see him, and maybe I'll be alright..."

Lu Yao opened her mouth as if to say something, but the terminal on her wrist started vibrating and emitting a continuous "beep beep" sound.

Almost simultaneously, Xie Linyu's terminal also began to buzz rapidly.

The two exchanged a glance, realizing something, and simultaneously looked down at the pop-up holographic news notification.

The bold, deep red title instantly filled the entire screen—

[Breaking News! Federal Parliament member Qin Miao and his family are suspected of multiple crimes and have been formally investigated by the Federal Supreme Inspectorate!]

Preliminary investigations indicate that the Qin family is suspected of manipulating genetic matching data over a long period, illegally selecting and hoarding high-quality male resources; bribing officials at the reproductive bureau to improperly adjust matching results; and using family businesses to conduct illegal genetic experiments in an attempt to artificially interfere with the genetic sequences of future generations…

[It is understood that this investigation was directly handled by the Military Special Operations Division, and the evidence is conclusive. Congressman Qin Miao has been suspended from all duties and is under investigation. His daughter, Qin Shu, is suspected of instigating the kidnapping and attempted harm of a female federal citizen, and is currently in custody...]

Lu Yao quickly scanned the area, her fingertips slightly cold. She had considered that the Qin family might have a background and ability, but she never expected them to be so audacious!

No wonder Qin Shu developed such a personality; it turns out there was a reason for everything.

"Looks like General Fu has put in the effort!" Xie Linyu smirked. "He's not entirely useless after all!"
