Chapter 670: 627 White Fox (3 more)

Lu Han played the recording for Professor Ming, who raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean?"

"And you? What are you thinking?"

"Do you still suspect your little buddy?" Professor Ming frowned.

Previously, they had conducted tests, and all seven people had passed, but the Poisonous Insect Poison incident hadn’t ended.

Now, in Lu Han’s hospital, was there still a traitor keeping a close watch on Tang Su and refusing to let her go?

"I don’t want to suspect anyone, but since the High Priest is Miss Bai, it suggests that our earlier suspicion was at least in the right direction."

"Miss Bai? Bai Simen also has the surname Bai," Professor Ming reminded him.

There were many with the surname Bai, and it didn’t necessarily mean White Fox, besides, White Fox was just a code name, not a real name.

"Bai Simen does have the surname Bai, but she wouldn’t go out of her way to make me leave Beijing."

"...That’s true."

"..."

"Then let’s test her one more time."

"You suspected her already, didn’t you? That’s why you thought of using the fake news of Tang Su’s pregnancy as a test?"

"..."

Professor Ming was silent. The talent he had nurtured for many years had suddenly turned coat, betraying him. Even at his age, he found this fact a little heartbreaking.

Nurturing talent was not easy.

"Is Tang Su faking her pregnancy? She isn’t really pregnant?" Professor Ming tilted his head, following Lu Han’s statement with a question.

"Not exactly, it was confirmed today that she is indeed pregnant."

"Oh, no wonder you brought good wine over. Go, we’ve run out of peanuts at home, roast some more for me," Professor Ming requested.

"Alright."

Lu Han went to the kitchen to help him roast peanuts.

Meanwhile, Professor Ming pulled out a compass from under the sofa seat and yanked a black string from around his neck. He untied two beads from the black string and tossed them into the compass.

Lu Han came out of the kitchen with the peanuts, to find Professor Ming had already put away the compass.

"Go get two more cups."

"..."

Lu Han was speechless. Was he being treated as a servant?

Lu Han fetched two glass cups, knowing most of these items were purchased by him and he had arranged them; naturally, he knew where everything was placed.

The two of them drank together, "Are you blaming me for moving Tang Su out?"

Savoring the good wine, Professor Ming squinted his eyes contentedly.

These past few days, Lu Han had been colder towards him; he wasn’t foolish and knew why.

"A bit. I’m willing to be your man and follow your orders, but Tang Su is just a normal person. I have no other demands. I can do anything for you, even risk my life, but you are not allowed to harm Tang Su."

Lu Han was honest about it, having indeed blamed the old man over this matter; however, grievances aside, Tang Su was truly pregnant now, and with so many gossips around them, it was impossible to keep it secret.

"Tang Su is no ordinary person," Professor Ming looked up, then drained the wine in his hand.

"What do you mean?"

"What I mean is, Tang Su is the woman you like; how could she possibly be just an ordinary person?"

"If you keep giving me the runaround, I can’t guarantee that when you’re craving wine in the future, you’ll still be able to drink good wine."

"..."

Was he being threatened by Lu Han?

"Lu Han, do you know why I didn’t let you call me Master?"

"Why?"

The old man could sometimes be quite peculiar, even more capricious than a woman.

At first, he always wanted him to take him as a master, but he thought himself too old and felt it wasn’t quite appropriate to have a teacher-student relationship with such an age difference.

Later, the old man’s skills proved to be great, and he made him recognize plenty of talented and gifted individuals.

"Because, you should call me ’Grandpa.’"

"Pfft..."

Lu Han was choked by the alcohol in his throat that he hadn’t managed to swallow yet.

"What’s the matter, after hanging out with me for so many years, how come you still can’t keep cool?"

"I think you’ve had too much to drink, Tang Su is your granddaughter? How is that possible?"

Which grandfather would be so unconcerned about his granddaughter’s safety?

He just pushed Tang Su out there as bait to lure the enemy, is this something a grandfather could do?

He didn’t believe it.

"What’s so impossible about that?"

"..."

"If Tang Su were just an ordinary person, why could a random method she thought of help you cure the Poisonous Insect Poison?"

"And the reason I pushed Tang Su out there, if the High Priest has designs on you, she would definitely try to harm Tang Su, but Tang Su has my peace charm on her. Neither the High Priest nor that Deity witch can hurt Tang Su."

"Besides, Tang Su is pregnant now. If she’s carrying a girl in her belly, then the gene from her grandma’s side that skips generations, her future will be mightier than yours as a father."

"..."

Is he trying to tell ghost stories or what?

A two-hundred-plus-year-old grandpa?

If this old man isn’t lying, wouldn’t Tang Su be scared to death?

This is a man over a hundred years old who fathered her mother-in-law?

He might accept this shocking news, but that doesn’t mean Tang Su could too.

Especially since she was pregnant now.

"What? Still don’t believe me?" Professor Ming raised an eyebrow.

In reality, whether Lu Han believed him or not, he disclosed this long-kept secret because he wanted him to know that he, as a grandfather, had the ability to protect Tang Su wholly if he dared to use her as bait to lure the enemy.

If the High Priest was someone he trained with his own hands, then he knew the weaknesses of each one of them.

This was also the reason he had held back before, as a precaution against their potential betrayal.

The unpredictability of people’s hearts, his late wife had long ago told him, was something to always be wary of.

"In the future, you will know about this. For now, I’m telling you so that you understand that I care about Tang Su as much as you do, cherish her, value her. But if her grandmother were still alive, to root out the evildoers, to save innocent people, even if we couldn’t protect her completely, she should still assume the responsibility to expose them."

"How could the High Priest harm her?"

"Didn’t you inject her with Universal Blood for protection? The Poisonous Insect should definitely not be able to harm her, but over these years, what other trump cards they have, I cannot be sure."

"Is the peace charm really effective?"

"Besides the peace charm, she has you, she has me, and all the bodyguards you’ve arranged. What are you afraid of?"

"I’m going back first, you take your time drinking."

"Okay."

At the door, White Fox and Shadow had just returned with lots of groceries and greeted Lu Han, "Rabbit, want to stay for dinner?"

"No need, I’m eating at home today."

Lu Han’s gaze swept back and forth over their faces.

"Tang Su and I have moved back in, we’ll buy some groceries tomorrow and come over, let’s get together then."

"Okay," the two said in reply.

"This kid isn’t having a world of two with his wife anymore?"

"She must be pregnant," said White Fox with a slight frown and an unnatural expression.

"How do you know?" Shadow asked in surprise.

"I just so happened to overhear Professor Ming talking to Lu Han earlier."
