Chapter 730: Unexpected News
Su Wan was dressed in a grayish-red dress with a wool cap on her head. Her face was sallow, and there were many wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. Her body was bloated, and her back was slightly hunched.
She was half-bent, and with some effort, she was carrying a large bag. She looked like a slightly haggard middle-aged woman, and there was no trace of her usual elegance.
No one looked at Su Wan anymore. Well, humans were all visual animals. No one would be willing to pay more attention to such an image of Su Wan.
Perhaps it was because the makeup was too successful, or perhaps Jiang Xuecheng did not expect Su Wan to be alone. The security check went very smoothly.
The ID card that Ming Ye gave her was also very suitable. She pa.s.sed it with one swipe.
Other than being impressed, Su Wan did not know what else to say.
She always suspected that Ming Ye had worked in some sort of intelligence bureau. Because he had leaked secrets, he had an irreconcilable feud with the High Priest.
Otherwise, Ming Ye knew too many things, so many that it was unscientific.
…
When she boarded the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, Su Wan did not see the kind of guards who came to patrol with great fanfare.
Not to mention putting her and Ming Ye’s faces on the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p and spreading it around the world.
Su Wan was curious. She could not help but push a little girl beside her, trying to ask her if anything interesting or rare had happened recently.
However, the little girl could not say anything.
Su Wan was speechless. At the same time, she was glad that Jiang Xuecheng kept a low profile. At least, this man did not expose her information directly.
If there was really a commotion, Su Wan was still thinking about what she should do. She did not have Ming Ye’s exquisite makeup skills. It was already good enough if she could smear herself black.
“Beep –”
Hearing the sound of the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p’s horn, Su Wan suddenly woke up. She looked out of the semi-transparent gla.s.s window and could only see several s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps parked on the smooth lane.
Ming Ye should be going through security checks now. She did not know which s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p he was on.
Su Wan silently wished him a safe journey in her heart. Then, she calmly leaned her head against the back of the chair and slowly dozed off.
She had a pretty good rest yesterday, but she had been too tired for the past two days. Su Wan wanted to sleep all the time.
Soon, Su Wan fell asleep.
Su Wan dreamed about many people and many things. One moment, it was the ruthless face of Jiang Xuecheng, and the next moment, it was the pitiful face of Cheng pulling her sleeve.
“Wan Wan, I want to go with you. Don’t leave Cheng behind, okay? Cheng will be very obedient…”
Su Wan’s closed eyes trembled, and her eyelashes also trembled slightly.
Soon, the scene changed, and Jiang Xuecheng’s face was gone.
If it were the bright lights in the operating theater, the blood-colored flowers that were constantly blooming on her body would be terrifying…
Su Wan’s hands were tightly clenched. She was half-awake and half-asleep. She knew that she was having a nightmare, but she could not struggle out no matter how hard she tried.
Those scenes pa.s.sed by rapidly. Soon, it became the scene of Nono falling to the ground.
Nono was lying on the ground in a daze. It turned its head to look at Su Wan. Its round eyes were filled with sorrow. Clearly, the robot could not cry or cry, but Su Wan felt that Nono was crying at her.
I’m sorry, Nono…
Su Wan only felt that something was gripping her heart tightly. It was dripping with blood and it was painful.
Just as Su Wan was struggling in pain, she suddenly heard an anxious cry beside her ear. Someone was pulling her arm.
“Auntie, why are you crying?”
Su Wan slowly opened her eyes. She saw the little girl next to her blinking her eyes and looking at her worriedly.
“Auntie, are you okay? Why are you crying? You should wipe it off.”
As the little girl spoke, she reached out and handed Su Wan a piece of tissue.
She really did not understand why Su Wan looked so sad. It was as if her entire person was empty and had nothing to live for.
“Thank you.”
Su Wan sniffed and forced a smile at the little girl. Then, she used the tissue to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes.
She was glad that the makeup was waterproof, otherwise it would have been terrifying.
Su Wan wiped away the tears on her face and gently threw the tissue into the garbage bin. Suddenly, she heard the girl next to her cry out in surprise.
“Auntie, didn’t you just ask me what interesting things have happened recently? I suddenly thought of an interesting thing!”
The little girl was mainly sympathetic to Su Wan who was crying so miserably at such an old age, so she racked her brain to divert Su Wan’s attention so that Su Wan would not be so sad.
When Su Wan heard the girl who was only a few years younger than her keep calling her auntie, the corner of her mouth could not help but twitch. At the same time, she admired Ming Ye even more.
This just so happened to show that Ming Ye’s makeup was successful!
Su Wan nodded at the other party and pretended to be interested in asking.
“Tell me about it.”
The little girl raised her chin proudly and winked at Su Wan a few times.
“I don’t know what happened to the executive officer of our district, but he suddenly made an announcement last night, saying that he wanted to hire a mechanic with a large sum of money!”
Mechanic, mechanic, mechanic…
Su Wan was stunned, and almost immediately thought of Nono.
Su Wan’s expression turned cold, and she hurriedly said to the little girl.
“Is it for repairing robots?”
“How did you know! Auntie, you’re so smart!”
Hearing Su Wan’s words, the girl, who was about sixteen or seventeen years old, raised her eyebrows. Her eyes were filled with wors.h.i.+p.
Su Wan smiled faintly and explained very calmly.
“If you’re a mechanic, if you’re not building robots, then you’re repairing robots. With such a 50% probability, is there a need to praise mycleverness?”
When the girl heard this, she was instantly stunned.
It was really strange. This auntie wore very rustic clothes and did not maintain her face well. When she first came up, she even looked a little hunched.
However, when Su Wan spoke, she had a special temperament. She was calm, confident, and elegant.
People could not help but want to believe her.
The girl looked at Su Wan a few more times, but she did not see anything strange.
She leaned next to Su Wan and mysteriously moved closer to Su Wan’s ear, breaking out a shocking piece of news.
“Auntie, let me tell you a piece of gossip. Don’t tell anyone.”
Su Wan’s heart skipped a beat when she saw the other party’s secretive att.i.tude, but she did not have much hope.
After all, this girl was too young. She did not look like she knew the inside story.
Su Wan nodded slightly and threw a questioning and gossipy look at the other party.
“Tell me, I will definitely keep my mouth shut.”
That girl seemed to be very familiar with her. She smiled as she approached Su Wan, and her voice was deliberately lowered.
“It just so happens that my brother is a mechanic, and he is also quite famous. So he went to apply for the job. Guess what?”
“What happened?”
Su Wan frowned slightly, indicating for her to continue speaking.
That girl giggled, and the corners of her lips curved even deeper. It was obvious that she was very proud of her brother.
“My brother told me that they just saw that robot, and before they had the time to repair it, they were to board the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p with their peers. They set off in the morning to go to Planet Locke! So we were all wondering if the robot had something to do with the G.o.d’s Palace.”
