Be Careful, Scum Dad! Mommy Is Back!
Chapter 391: Don’t you think this is superfluous?

Chapter 391: Chapter 391: Don’t you think this is superfluous?

The hand didn’t linger in hers for too long.

Lu Xining felt something in her palm, a faint rustling noise, something akin to... a candy?

The small commotion here was completely drowned out by Lott’s voice.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have researched for decades and now possess the world’s most advanced and mature technology!"

"You’ve seen the preliminary product of this technology; that elderly just now visibly regained a youthful appearance at lightning speed with just one injection! This is far safer than surgery, regular injections, or medication."

"I dare to stake my life on it, as long as we get the technological formula inside the Deep Sea Heart, we can unlock the deepest secret in human history! In the words of the Eastern world, that’s eternal youth!"

Lott’s voice brimmed with uncontrollable excitement as he stepped onto the stage, operating the controls to rewind the scene where the octopus appeared, the massive tentacles appearing particularly terrifying in everyone’s vision.

He spoke passionately without mentioning any dangers behind this technology.

As his voice trailed off, the room gradually lit up, and Lu Xining glanced down at her palm. As she had guessed, a piece of candy lay there in her fair palm.

"Not my daughter’s favorite brand." So it wouldn’t reveal Lu Nuonuo’s information.

Ji Muye now dared not forget what she had said.

Whenever he encountered unbearable pain or troubling matters, he would replace cigarettes with candy.

Even if he didn’t eat it and just held it in his palm, he could feel a strength of optimism from within, something he had never mentioned to anyone, but at this moment, Lu Xining understood what he meant by it.

"I don’t eat candy."

As the overhead lights dimmed again, she stuffed the candy back into the man’s hand.

At this time, everyone’s eyes were focused on the stage, where an equipment covered with a black cloth was gradually rising in the originally empty space.

Lott strode to the side of the device, the mysterious demeanor arousing curiosity about the contents inside.

Lu Xining guessed that this was the purpose they insisted on her boarding the ship this time.

Deep Sea Heart!

Her curiosity mirrored everyone else’s as to what this Deep Sea Heart, never before seen by anyone, actually looked like.

While all eyes were focused on the stage, Ji Muye was looking towards Shang Lvxing, who was not sitting next to Lu Xining this time, having brought Shang Yueling and Zhuang Tian, appearing to be more familiar with Zhuang Tian compared to the non-biological Shang family member Shang Yueling.

The Zhuang Family had always been a power in Xi Juan’s hands.

Before, he had specifically instructed Ji Muye to involve Zhuang Tian in relevant projects, hoping she could secure a place in that circle.

But Zhuang Tian, despite being smart, ultimately lacked the capability.

Even when asked just to confuse people into thinking there was a new cooperative project between the Ji Family and the Zhuang Family, drawing most attention to the relationship between the two families, she failed and instead diverted it to matters of romance, turning solid corporate cooperation into a marriage alliance.

Lacking vision ultimately makes things difficult to accomplish.

Ji Muye simply had a counterfeit arranged to perform with her in public.

Meanwhile, he secretly executed those projects that couldn’t see the light of day.

Shang Lvxing also noticed his gaze, turning to look at Ji Muye.

Seeing the man still sitting beside Lu Xining, blocking Shang Lvxing’s view of her with his body, Shang Lvxing chuckled coldly in his heart: this Ji Family head is either ignorant, or he places emotions in such a high position once he starts to understand things.

Ji Muye thought he hid well, but Shang Lvxing had long smelled the blood scent on him.

Previously meeting him, there was no such strong cologne on him, clearly to cover up something.

Shang Lvxing nodded towards Ji Muye, his eyes filled with indistinct emotions.

The two men simultaneously averted their gazes, as if the eye contact just now was merely accidental.

"It’s beautiful!!!"

"My God, such a transparent gem!"

"Esta jóiaé mais bonita do que qualquer um que eu já vi!"

"No wonder so many people want the ’Deep Sea Heart’!"

Light focused on the transparent case holding the ’Deep Sea Heart’ gem, an already dazzling pearl, now so beautiful it was captivating.

Lott raised his voice, "This is the legendary ’Deep Sea Heart’!"

"I prefer to call it the ’Heart of Life’!"

The fingers of Lu Xining tightened suddenly, the blue jewel inside the black cloth on the stage was at least palm-sized, but to her surprise was something she had seen before.

In her mother and grandfather’s family photo, the jewel her grandfather held and played with in his palm was the miniature of this ’Deep Sea Heart’.

So... the existence of the Deep Sea Heart is indeed related to the Chu Family!

Before Lu Xining could inspect the ’Deep Sea Heart’ more closely, Lott stood in front of the stage and uttered words that shocked everyone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are not selling jewelry, we merely want to prove to the world that human lifespan can be extended indefinitely!"

"Therefore, we are placing this ’Deep Sea Heart’ here, and if anyone can open the external device of the ’Deep Sea Heart’, they can obtain this gem for free."

This statement drew enthusiastic applause from the guests.

Not to mention the added value of the ’Deep Sea Heart’, its intrinsic value and beauty alone were enough to drive many crazy.

Lott continued, "However, we also have one condition."

A beam of light shone on the center of the ’Deep Sea Heart’, and he stepped aside, pointing at the gem, "The prerequisite is that you can decipher the technological formula inside the ’Deep Sea Heart’."

"If anyone manages to decipher the information contained inside, they will not only obtain the gem but also receive unconditional access to our Royal Cruise’s Origin of Life, granting your family and descendants the chance to regain youth unconditionally!"

Lu Xining’s cool gaze froze momentarily, her eyes betraying a hint of speechlessness.

Wasn’t the subtext of these words: We’ve researched for decades without unlocking the external device of the ’Deep Sea Heart’, nor deciphered its secrets inside, so now I’m presenting it to you; if you can manage to decipher it, you can take the gem.

In other words: We are preparing to score a freebie.

As Lott said these words, his gaze never left Lu Xining’s face, filled with various schemes.

The lights came up, and Lott made way on the stage.

All the guests could come on stage to view the ’Deep Sea Heart’ up close, and Lu Xining also got up to walk towards the device.

Since everyone believed she could open it, she couldn’t bear to ruin this expectation, could she?

She stepped onto the stage with the crowd, examined the ’Deep Sea Heart’ device closely, with Ji Muye following her, ensuring no other men got close to her.

After looking, Lu Xining returned to her original seat to rest with the others.

During this time, some "lock-picking experts" tried to open the device, but to no avail, and left.

As it was getting late, everyone could only return to their rooms to rest.

Lu Xining and Cheng Cang’s gazes met in midair.

The other party nodded and was about to leave when Lu Xining called out, "Don’t you think this is superfluous?"
