Chapter 1131 A Passerby Cannon Fodder in an Infinite Flow Dimension (Part 54)
[Miaomiao, the mirror world has been completely destroyed. This world is safe now.]
Early in the morning, after receiving a call from Tan Jiashu, Bao Bao's voice rang in Miao Miao's mind, filled with uncontrollable joy, almost bringing her to tears.
They all knew that "Boom" meant that this was Miaomiao's last world. In other words, if this world was completely safe, their mission would be secured. She was already a big shot who was about to retire, and the rest of her days would be for rest.
But what Miaomiao didn't know was that Baobao's excitement had another meaning.
As a system and a witness to Miao Miao's entire journey through these twenty planes, Bao Bao is no longer the newcomer it once was; it can now calmly watch the show.
Especially after it was confirmed that Miaomiao was the only exception in this world after returning from the mirror world, and that she was able to retain the memories of the mirror world completely because her soul itself was a bug.
But Xie Chenzhou is different. Whether it's to ensure the safety of this world or to respect the rules of the world, for someone as powerful as Xie Chenzhou, even if he destroys the original mirror world, the result will be that his past life and death will be erased, and his memory will only remain at the time when Miaomiao confessed to him before he fell into a coma.
This is interesting. It is particularly curious that now that Miaomiao is in a coma and has been rejected in her love affair, she will definitely be protected very closely by the Tan family. Unless necessary, she probably won't go out much in the next few days.
How did Miaomiao, who was hiding at home to avoid suspicion, end up being found by Xie Chenzhou, who had lost that memory and was inherently cold-hearted?
Thinking about it, it's quite exciting. Isn't this more interesting than those melodramatic space dramas that go on for hundreds of episodes?
How will the man who once flatly rejected the original owner of this body, treating her as nothing, gradually lose control when facing Miaomiao, transforming from passively distant to eagerly approaching her, and finally holding her firmly in his grasp...?
Tsk tsk, I feel like Bao Bao could consider becoming a screenwriter after it retires.
However, no matter how curious it was, it also felt a pang of affection for Miaomiao. Its host had it tough too. Without the protection of the plane, all her memories had returned, and she would have to face the real boss in a real battle.
When I retire, I'll be pressured to get married...
Miaomiao was delighted to receive Baobao's message.
Everything has settled down, and now she has the freedom to roam the world.
"After the mirror world disappears, will my money still be credited to my account?"
Miaomiao asked again, somewhat worried.
Don't worry, this is a necessary gift; it's part of the energy conversion between rules.
Bao Bao answered this question readily.
Miaomiao was relieved to hear this, and realized that there was no need to meet with Xie Chenzhou anymore.
She shouldn't try to curry favor with someone who doesn't reciprocate. As long as her brother and Chen Zhou's relationship continues, she'll just be a good sister behind the scenes. Once the money arrives, she plans to invest directly in the Xie Group.
Although it might not be much to them, this was the only way Miaomiao could repay the debt.
As for feelings, Miaomiao really doesn't have that much of a nerve.
Her older brother was right. With a strong family backing, she didn't need to compromise for marriage, nor did she need to be trapped in an awkward past.
She wanted to travel, to see all the mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas, and to enjoy every minute of free breathing time; she had absolutely no intention of getting married.
Meanwhile, the atmosphere in the hospital ward became heavy due to Xie Chenzhou's awakening.
The doctor had just finished the follow-up examination and was smilingly informing him that there was no organic damage to his body and that he could be discharged after a short rest, but he was interrupted by Xie Chenzhou's cold gaze.
"No need to rest, arrange a car, go back to the company."
His voice was deep and indifferent, without a trace of weakness from just waking up; instead, it exuded a sense of oppressiveness that kept strangers at bay.
The Xie family subordinates around them fell silent, and no one dared to refute them.
They were already used to the heir's ruthless decisiveness; he always put public affairs first and never let personal matters or his health condition interfere with his work.
Tan Jiashu stood aside, watching Xie Chenzhou quickly adjust his state, and secretly clicked his tongue in amazement.
His brother was still acting as business as ever, and his subconscious question, "Where's Miaomiao?" seemed like just a hallucination.
When Miaomiao was mentioned again, his eyes were filled with complete detachment and indifference, as if he were talking about an insignificant stranger.
"It's good that your sister is alright."
His tone was flat and emotionless, completely lacking the tact of someone rejected in a confession, and only displaying the politeness of a businessman.
Tan Jiashu now feels that it's fortunate his sister didn't come, otherwise he would have been heartbroken.
Xie Chenzhou went straight back to the company from the hospital, showing none of the fragility he had displayed when he was unconscious yesterday. He maintained his precise and efficient work style, signing two contracts worth billions and rejecting three unqualified project proposals. His aura was so low that his subordinates dared not even breathe.
But only he knew that the inexplicable anxiety in his heart was growing stronger and stronger, as if something of utmost importance was slipping through his fingers, and he had no clue what was going on.
This sense of powerlessness—being unable to grasp or recall anything—gradually fermented into a hidden tyranny, making him even colder and more indifferent in front of his subordinates, who were practically trembling with fear.
"Rewrite the plan and give it to me by 5 p.m. If you can't do it well, don't bother coming back."
His cold tone, tinged with restraint, startled his subordinates, who quickly responded.
He was never one to lose his temper, but today this unusual emotion clung to him like vines, refusing to leave.
Besides this anxiety, the incident of the excavator going out of control last night made him even more alert.
The machine brakes were working properly, yet it just so happened to rush towards him and the Tan siblings at that exact moment; this couldn't simply be described as an accident.
Xie Chenzhou felt that this was most likely a deliberate murder.
Xie Chenzhou tapped his fingertips on the table, his eyes dark and calculating, filled with cold ruthlessness.
"Investigate thoroughly. Find out the background of the excavator operator and all the surveillance footage before and after the incident."
He paused, his tone turning even colder.
"No matter who did it, we'll dig them out no matter how deep we have to go."
There were no superfluous words, yet his words exuded an undeniable ruthlessness, revealing the cold-blooded tactics of the Xie family heir.
As for the question he subconsciously asked after waking up, "Where's Miaomiao?", he had already dismissed it as incoherent ramblings from his unconscious state.
In his memory, Tan Miaomiao was just his friend's younger sister, a girl who had confessed her feelings to him, and there was no other interaction between them.
But only the ever-growing obsession in his heart silently reminded him that things might not be so simple.
Meanwhile, Miaomiao was living a carefree and comfortable life, completely forgetting the embarrassment of the hospital and the thrilling experience of the mirror world.
From the moment I got home, I strictly followed my parents' wishes, staying with my mother on the sofa in the living room to watch TV series, cracking sunflower seeds and commenting on the plot. Life was leisurely and relaxed.
After being ordered by his parents to return from the hospital, Tan Jiashu immediately stayed home to rest, ostensibly to "recover with his sister," but in reality, he was also placed under their supervision.
The siblings had a strict schedule set by their parents, requiring them to go to bed early, wake up early, eat three meals a day regularly, and even limit their screen time. Miaomiao predicted that for the time being, the two of them would be considered brothers in misfortune.
However, compared to the previous thrills, this kind of life was quite enjoyable, especially with the prospect of acquiring a huge fortune...
As night fell, Xie Chenzhou returned to his secluded villa. He rarely felt sleepy, but today the restlessness and emptiness in his heart were particularly strong, so he unusually lay down on the bed and closed his eyes. He didn't know how much time had passed before his consciousness gradually sank into a dream...
