I Have a Date with a Thousand-year-old Female Corpse

You look at Heavenly Fox, his brow slightly relaxed: "Now the situation is quite clear, Jerris’s goal is those two types of medicine, and what I need to do is to find out the location of the research lab for this medicine."

"That sounds about right. In the upcoming period, we will follow Wei Yingyue and Cen Nong secretly."

You shrug: "Those are your affairs, I just have to complete my task."

With that, you stand up.

"Where are you going?" Heavenly Fox couldn’t help but ask as he saw you heading towards the door.

"Out for a walk."

"Are you really going to meet her?"

You glanced back at Heavenly Fox without saying anything, opened the door, and walked out.

Heavenly Fox stood inside the room, looking at the half-opened door, let out a slightly faint sigh.

You did not take the elevator this time, but walked down the stairs where several lights were broken. Once you walked out of the building, you had already returned to your original appearance.

Leaving the community, you picked up your phone and dialed Chen Susu’s number. After a string of pleasant music, Chen Susu’s voice came from the other end of the phone: "Brother."

"Where are you?"

"I’m at home."

"Alright, just wait a bit, I’ll be there soon."

Chen Susu wanted to say a few more words, but you just hung up the phone.

"Sister, is it brother-in-law coming to our house?" asked Chen Jie, who was doing his homework, looking up at Chen Susu.

Chen Susu didn’t answer but looked around. The house she rented now cost 500 Huaxia currency a month, and such rent was considered very cheap in the high-spending Yuhang City.

The large house was less than fifty square meters, and it was an old-style work allocation house. Outside the door was a long corridor, which was the only communal area, each household had a door and two windows.

Pushing open the main door, one could see the living room. The corridor was less than a meter wide, with a very small kitchen on the left hand side, then a few strides forward, and there was the living room.

At that moment, both Chen Susu and Chen Jie were sitting in the living room. The living room was small, with a dilapidated wooden table and an old lacquer long bench. Chen Jie was doing his homework on the wooden table, which was also the table where the siblings ate.

One table, two chairs, plus a long bench had filled up the living room.

The back of the long bench where Chen Susu sat was the restroom, and further inside was the bedroom. Originally, it was just a small bedroom, but Chen Susu insistently partitioned it in half, with Chen Jie sleeping on the outside, and she occupying the inside half.

The so-called bedroom was actually just a bed and a small tea table. Due to limited space, the siblings would do their homework in the living room, and only return to their rooms to sleep after taking a bath.

They didn’t have a TV, but Chen Susu had equipped a computer.

If they were ordinary students, they would surely play games or surf online during their studies, but Chen Jie and Chen Susu never did so. This computer was their main channel to access the outside world and knowledge beyond the classroom, so they both treasured it greatly.

Hearing Chen Jie’s words, Chen Susu spoke: "Little Jie, didn’t elder sister tell you before, don’t call him brother-in-law in front of him from now on."

Chen Jie was similar to Chen Susu, quite mature for his age, although he seldom went out, living a lifestyle that was basically two points in a straight line. However, his view was broadened by the internet, leading to a much wider cognitive area compared to peers, and this was one of the reasons why his performance far exceeded his peers.

Chen Jie could tell that Chen Susu liked you, and he himself was grateful to you. Ever since you appeared and taught Wang San’s family a lesson, Wang Dafa, the fat boy, not only stopped bothering him, but the two even became good friends.

Children don’t harbor much hatred among themselves, and sometimes a small conflict or dispute can actually deepen their friendship.

Wang Dafa’s parents’ relationship also returned to normal, just like newlyweds, sticking together every day, and Wang Yue’s weight also relatively reduced a lot. Wang San took Wang Yue to banquets, and others thought he had changed his little mistress again, but after inquiry, they learned that she was actually the official wife. Soon, Wang San and his wife became model couples in the business circle, especially among real estate developers.

The elder sister is like a mother, all along, Chen Susu has been taking good care of Chen Jie, and the understanding Chen Jie also tried not to trouble his elder sister. Seeing Chen Susu’s mood wasn’t too good, he stopped talking.

Chen Susu hesitated whether to call you again, because she hadn’t told you her home address, but she feared what you said earlier was just to deal with her, so she kept holding the phone tightly, her face filled with worry.

At this moment, there was suddenly a knock on the door outside.

"Who is it?"

Chen Jie stood up. Nowadays, the siblings relied on each other and hadn’t contacted others; those relatives naturally didn’t appear, as they were all afraid that Chen Susu and her brother would ask them for money.

As a boy, Chen Jie stood up immediately and walked to the door.

"Is Chen Susu at home?"

A man’s voice came from outside the door, and Chen Susu abruptly stood up upon hearing this voice, her face revealing an unexpected surprise.

Because Chen Jie was not familiar with you, hearing a man’s voice at night, he naturally became alert.

"It’s already so late, my sister has gone to bed, you can come back tomorrow."

Saying this, Chen Susu had stood next to Chen Jie, patting his shoulder gently and said softly, "Go tidy up the table."

"Alright."

Chen Jie reacted quickly, immediately showing a bright smile on his previously alert face, and cheerfully went to tidy up.

Chen Susu opened the door and discovered it was indeed you standing at the entrance!

Seeing you at the door, for a moment, Chen Susu felt like she was dreaming, because during the previous call, she thought you wouldn’t come, after all, she was very clear that your impression of her was not very good. Furthermore, calling you so late, it seemed unlikely you would respond given your personality.

Seeing the slightly dazed Chen Susu, you couldn’t help but smile.

At this moment, Chen Susu was quite different from usual. She was wearing a very ordinary pajama that had been washed very white, since it was a commonly seen cotton pajama, she looked a bit plump, but appeared somewhat cute. Unlike usual, her hair was not tied into a ponytail, but was softly draping over her shoulders, exuding a different charm.

Chen Susu was only eighteen years old, yet she already displayed such unique charisma, which indicated that she would surely become a pursued target once she was an adult.

"Why, won’t you invite me in?"

Your words brought Chen Susu back to her senses, hurriedly stepping back two steps to let you in.

The hallway of Chen Susu’s house was very narrow; after a small shoe cabinet took up space, only one person could walk through.

Taking off your shoes, stepping into Chen Susu’s home, a faint fragrance greeted you. You couldn’t help but take a slight breath, and said with a smile: "This jasmine fragrance is quite pleasant."
