Wenren Lei said softly, "Brother Yan, back then, my brother and I were able to escape from the research institute because he risked his life to get us out."

That predetermined path doesn't lie.

Wenren Lei looked up at Fu Yan: "There's another reason why I trust him."

After saying that, he secretly activated his supernatural power and asked, "I added a drop of water to your brain, can you feel it?"

Fu Yan nodded: "Very clear."

In fact, Fu Yan had already noticed at the bottom of the pit that after Wenren Lei appeared, the earth-shattering killing intent on Wen Chi's body had indeed diminished by more than half.

Wenren Lei looked in the direction of A1-V: "During the confrontation just now, I kept pouring water into his head, and now there's only one drop left to burst his brain."

Fu Yan instantly understood Wenren Lei's meaning—Wen Chi was unguarded against Wenren Lei, which allowed Wenren Lei to act recklessly against him.

Fu Yan gently hugged Wenren Lei: "I understand. You go back first, I'll go support Gu Zhengming."

"Okay, be careful."

When Wenren Lei returned to the RV, Wenren Yu had already woken up.

Wen Chi stood in front of Wenren Yu, pulled the blood-stained sealed bag out of his chest again, wiped it on himself, and compared it to Wenren Yu's face, muttering, "Why does it look so unlovable now?"

Dark red blood droplets dripped from Wen Chi's hand onto the light-colored carpet, giving Wenren Lei a headache.

Wenren Yu sat on the sofa, rubbing his forehead, looking somewhat tired: "Uncle, when are you going to stop making a scene?"

"Ha, ha, ha, let me check." Wen Chi stuffed the sealed bag back in. "What a terrible temper."

Wenren Lei sighed softly, took off the down jacket that Wen Chi had just rubbed with black blood, and threw it directly into the trash can.

"Awoo~"

Maruko rushed over in a flash, grabbed Wenren Lei's legs, and climbed onto him.

Another Corpse King boarded the vehicle, putting immense pressure on this Emperor-level battle pet!

Wenren Lei completely failed to understand the puppy's anxiety. She picked it up and walked over to Wen Chi, saying, "Wanzi, treat his wounds."

"Oh?!" Wen Chi's adaptability was exceptionally strong; he immediately opened his arms and said excitedly, "Is it a puppy with healing abilities? Come on!"

"Woof!" Maruko was suspended in mid-air, so frightened that she was about to turn into a dried-up dog.

It kicked its four short legs helplessly, and finally raised its front paws to cover its eyes.

Wenren Lei reassured him in a low voice, "It's alright, he's your... uh..." He looked at Wenren Yu, "Brother, what's Dad's uncle's name?"

Wenren Yu said helplessly, "Uncle."

"Hmm!" Wenren Lei held the meatball up to Wen Chi's eyes. "He's your great-uncle."

Maruko was extremely unwilling, but the dog was already stuck on the corpse and had no choice but to timidly extend its front paws and activate its supernatural power to heal Wen Chi's injuries.

"Comfortable! Good dog!" Wen Chi closed his eyes and enjoyed it.

Wenren Yu looked at Wen Chi's body, which resembled a mop head, and asked, "How did you get so badly damaged?"

Wenren Lei said, "It was done by the research institute, wasn't it? Fu Yan didn't hold back either."

Wen Chi thoughtfully smoothed things over: "Hey~ we became friends after our fight, no need to punish that young man for my sake."

Wenren Lei gave a dry laugh: "You're quite impolite."

Once the wound had healed, Wenren Lei escorted Wen Chi to a guest room and let him clean himself.

Afterwards, Wenren Lei went back to the living room to find Wenren Yu.

He lay back on the sofa, draped his legs over the armrests, and rested his head on Wenren Yu's legs. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Brother, did you see Grandpa Qi for the last time?"

Wenren Yu lowered her eyes and slowly said, "I saw him. He took us back to Weicheng. My grandfather gave him some money, and then he left to live in seclusion."

For a long time, Wenren Yu believed that it was her father who sent them out of the research institute.

It wasn't until today that I realized the blurry man in my memory was my uncle.

Wenren Lei gazed at the rooftop: "Did Mom and Dad always work at Research Institute Zero?"

Wenren Yu reached out and gently stroked Wenren Lei's hair: "I don't know. Their work is highly classified. Until we were kidnapped, neither my grandfather nor I knew exactly what they were doing."

"Researchers," Wenren Lei murmured, "They may have possessed some crucial intelligence, and after leaving the research institute for a year, they were captured and brought back."

Wenren Yu nodded: "That's the only way."

Wenren Lei scratched her hair in frustration: "How much of the insane experiments conducted by Research Institute Zero were my parents involved in?"

Seeing that he was getting stuck on this, Wenren Yu placed her palm on the top of his head: "Xiao Lei, at least now we can be sure that the people who used us for experiments were not Mom and Dad."

Wenren Lei lowered her hand helplessly, staring at Wen Chi's tightly closed bedroom door: "It's a pity, he doesn't remember anything."

Wenren Lei stared in the direction of the bathroom, feeling melancholy, while Wenren Yu was looking at him.

The possibility that he might have been a test subject for his biological parents had weighed on his mind for many years.

When Wenren Lei first learned about this, her attitude was to trust her parents.

Wenren Yu couldn't quite describe the feeling in her heart.

They feel guilty, or they believe that they have a dark side.

"Brother?" Wenren Lei waved her hand in front of him. "What are you daydreaming about?"

Wenren Yu's eyelashes trembled slightly. Coming back to her senses, she raised her hand and rubbed her temples. "It's nothing."

Wenren Lei raised her hand and hooked a strand of Wenren Yu's long hair, playing with it between her fingertips.

Logically speaking, given the immense trauma Qin Qingqing inflicted on him as a child, he should feel physically uncomfortable seeing such long hair.

"Brother, did you grow your hair so long because of me?"

Wenren Yu chuckled softly, looking at him gently: "When you were little, you were terrified of people with long hair, and you would tremble all over. It was so bad that you didn't even dare to leave your room."

"But luckily you like your brother very much, so I grew my hair long to help you desensitize little by little, and the effect was surprisingly good."

Wenren Lei felt a lump in her throat and shifted up slightly, resting her head on Wenren Yu's leg. She pulled his hair over her wet eyes and said, "I'm not afraid anymore, brother. If you don't like long hair, you can cut it."

Wenren Yu said calmly, "After all these years, I'm used to it. You probably don't remember, but our grandfather, that stubborn little old man, grew a long beard back then so that you would feel closer to him."

Wenren Lei rarely heard Wenren Yu talk about these past events, so he immediately opened his eyes and listened attentively.

Seeing his interest, Wenren Yu continued, "It's just that he always has a stern face. You hide whenever you see him, which makes him so angry that he shaved his beard again."

Wenren Lei was taken aback for a moment, then said, "I have no recollection of him."

Wenren Yu looked up at the sky and said, "My parents worked away from home all year round, and my grandfather always resented them. Later, the family was finally reunited, but then they were kidnapped again. When we got back, they were still the same. My grandfather suffered one blow after another and was always depressed. He didn't stay with us for long before he passed away."

"You were too young back then to remember anything."
