Is Chapter 382 dangerous?
Is Chapter 382 dangerous?
That night, the two children slept in a chaotic manner.
Yes, it's a complete mess.
This sleeping posture is absolutely amazing.
In contrast, Lu Cheng, Lu Zhou, and Shen Li barely slept a wink all night, carefully protecting the children the whole time, afraid that they would catch a cold.
As dawn approached, Shen Li finally couldn't stay awake any longer and fell into a deep sleep.
Lu Cheng got up quietly, dressed and tidied the two children, and didn't even feel like going to work. He just wanted to catch up on his sleep. He lay down and slept until noon, and didn't wake up until lunchtime.
In the afternoon, Lu Cheng and Shen Li entrusted their three children to their family members for care. The two went out for a walk and specially brought back a large children's bed, which they placed securely in the room.
They don't know how long they'll be staying here. Even if it's just a week, based on last night's situation, they'll definitely need a separate children's bed. It's just too crowded, and it's impossible for anyone to get a proper rest.
The next day, having a crib made things much more convenient.
Shen Li doesn't have to go to work, and occasionally she takes her three children out for a stroll.
The festive atmosphere here is very strong. Red lanterns are hung in the streets and alleys, and the whole place is filled with a joyful atmosphere.
An'an and Xiangxiang stared wide-eyed, running around excitedly. Only Lele, still a baby, could only giggle at the lively scene.
Every day, as Shen Li looked at "Lu Sheng" (Ming Xiangyang's body), she couldn't help but think of the real Ming Xiangyang: Where did he go?
It's been so long, and there's still no news.
But she was busy taking care of three children every day, and was overwhelmed with trivial matters. She could only try her best to suppress her worries and not think about those troublesome things.
Perhaps he lost patience with himself, which is why he left completely...
Lu Zhou had one more semester before graduating from university, and he returned to school after the semester started.
Shen Li stayed in Pengcheng for another half a year. Lu Zhou originally wanted to take the two children away, but the children refused and insisted on going with Shen Li.
Shen Li had no choice but to let them stay—there were plenty of people in the courtyard who could help look after things, so let them stay.
Taking care of children is too tiring; I need a raise.
The two children were now three years old.
For the past six months, Shen Li's life has been exceptionally peaceful. She deliberately empties her mind, doesn't think about anything, and focuses on taking care of her three children every day.
In this day and age, there's no such thing as sending a three-year-old to kindergarten. People usually start at five, first attending a year of preschool, and then starting first grade.
At this time, it was not called kindergarten; in schools, it was uniformly called preschool.
In the same year, Lu Zhou graduated from university.
He applied for the civil service exam and successfully entered a public institution.
After all, he was a top student who graduated from Peking University, so his treatment after graduation was naturally much better than that of graduates from ordinary universities.
Fortunately, he has this stable job to keep him in check; otherwise, he would definitely be running to Shenzhen every day.
Meanwhile, in Shenzhen, the new factory is already half-built.
Shen Li wanted to stay in Pengcheng for a while longer. Firstly, the Chinese Academy of Sciences hadn't urged her to go back, and secondly, the skincare product processing plant had reliable people to manage it, so she didn't have to worry about anything herself.
Even so, Shen Li did not simply wash her hands of the business. Whether it was the machinery factory or the skincare products business, she quietly cultivated her own trusted confidants and informants.
She had also witnessed the wickedness of human nature, and although she knew the old saying, "Use people without suspicion, and don't use those you suspect,"
But she also understood that people's hearts are fickle, and it's always good to be cautious—she didn't want to be the kind of person who gets sold out and then foolishly helps count the money.
One day in September, Lu Sheng (in Ming Xiangyang's body) told Shen Li that he had to go out for a while.
Shen Li didn't think much of it, assuming he had his own things to take care of, and nodded: "Brother, go if you want to, but be careful."
But Lu Sheng didn't return even after a week of being gone. When asked, Lu Cheng was told that his older brother had something to do.
Shen Li finally began to have doubts, vaguely sensing that something was amiss.
During dinner that evening, Shen Li couldn't help but ask Lu Cheng, "Second Brother, where did Eldest Brother go? Why haven't we heard from him since he left?"
Lu Cheng put down his chopsticks, looked at Shen Li with a solemn expression, sighed softly, and slowly said, "Ming Xiangyang is back. He said... he found a way to let them switch bodies back."
Shen Li looked up abruptly, her eyes filled with surprise: "Really?"
She was too excited to notice the deep worry hidden in Lu Cheng's eyes.
Lu Cheng nodded hesitantly, his tone uncertain: "It's still not certain whether it will succeed."
Shen Li then noticed the unusual expression on Lu Cheng's face, her heart sank, and she asked urgently, "Is there any danger?"
Lu Cheng didn't hide anything and nodded slightly: "Yes, there might be a danger to my life."
"Absolutely not!" Shen Li refused without hesitation, grabbing Lu Cheng's arm and pressing him for an answer, "Where are they now?"
Lu Cheng: "It's in the yard next door."
The medication has already been administered, and going there now won't stop it.
"Quick, take me there!" Shen Li got up and started to walk out.
Lu Cheng did not refuse, and stood up to pick up his coat: "I'll take you there."
Shen Li paused, then thought of the children: "What about the children?"
Lu Cheng reassured them, "Just leave them to Zhao Qing and Feng Ye. They can take care of the three children without any problems."
Shen Li was extremely anxious and followed Lu Cheng quickly toward the neighboring courtyard.
Uncle Hu opened the door. Seeing Shen Li, he looked somewhat surprised: "Comrade Shen, what brings you here?"
"Uncle Hu, where is he?" Shen Li asked anxiously, her voice filled with unease.
Uncle Hu glanced at Lu Cheng and instantly understood; Lu Cheng must have told Shen Li about it. He nodded and stepped aside to lead the way: "Comrade Shen, please follow me."
Uncle Hu led the two inside. As soon as they entered the hall, Shen Li saw Mingcheng and Mingxing. He was surprised to find them there as well.
Upon seeing Shen Li, Ming Xing's face instantly darkened. He strode forward, his tone accusatory: "President Shen, why did you insist on forcing them to switch back? Do you know how dangerous soul swapping is? A slight mishap could put both of their lives in danger!"
Mingcheng immediately scolded, "Mingxing, shut up! This is the masters' own choice; it's none of your business!"
Shen Li looked up at Ming Xing, her eyes calm: "After he wakes up, you can ask him yourself."
Mingxing was speechless for a moment, and his face became even more unpleasant.
Shen Li raised an eyebrow, her tone tinged with coldness: "What? You're afraid to ask him, so you're taking it out on me?"
Mingcheng quickly stepped forward to smooth things over: "President Shen, please don't misunderstand, Mingxing didn't mean that."
Shen Li said calmly, "Whether that's what he meant or not is not important. What's important is that I think he did."
Mingcheng was speechless, and could only stand helplessly to the side.
The master really disregarded any danger for her sake. If the master had taken that medicine himself, there wouldn't have been so much trouble later.
And they were even disliked.
