Chapter 173 Methods to Improve Bloodline
After dinner, Su Xiaoqiang, who was about to return to his room, was suddenly stopped by his father.
"Qiangqiang, do you have time now?" Su Zhenqi asked.
"Ok?"
This long-lost gentle tone made Su Xiaoqiang feel a little strange. Looking at her father's solemn eyes, it seemed that he had something important to tell her next.
She nodded with some confusion, and then Su Zhenqi waved his hand, motioning her to come over with him.
The two entered the master bedroom of the villa. Su Zhenqi asked her to wait in the study room of the suite for a while, then turned and walked into the bedroom. When he came out again, he had an extra suit in his hand.
Isn’t this the Kiton suit that I lent to Lu Mingfei?
The moment she saw the suit, Su Xiaoqiang was stunned. Not only because she felt that she had been exposed for secretly lending her father's suit to Lu Mingfei, but more importantly, the suit brought back some memories for her.
Memories are beautiful, but precisely because they are too beautiful and sweet, they are more easily contrasted with the cruel reality.
"That boy was wearing my suit that day, right?" Su Zhenqi asked, "I knew something was wrong as soon as I put it on. The size was obviously changed. No wonder I couldn't find it before."
Su Xiaoqiang lowered his head.
"You gave it to him?"
"Yes." Su Xiaoqiang said softly and truthfully.
Su Xiaoqiang originally thought that she would be met with a barrage of criticism. She had gradually gotten used to this kind of thing since she entered middle school.
She just refused to do whatever her father asked her to do. Her father took her to various social occasions to meet young talents, but she just stood high and never gave a good look to those so-called young masters.
She even thought about finding a boy she liked in high school to date. In addition to wanting to piss off her father, she also felt that her relationship, even if it failed in the end, was free love, not a blind date that was like breeding.
But to her surprise, the thunder and rain she had imagined did not come. Su Zhenqi just sighed, moved a chair, and sat down opposite Su Xiaoqiang.
"I can actually feel that you have always been the opposite of me since you entered middle school. At first I thought you had reached your rebellious stage, and I thought I could suppress you with stricter discipline. But now I think that's not the case. Perhaps your rebellion has something to do with me."
Su Zhenqi's voice was calm and he said slowly:
"I am a clumsy person, not as smart as your mother. I came from the countryside. When I was young, I knew nothing except reading. Even when I was old, I knew nothing about anything other than business."
"You were basically raised by your mother when you were little. Since your mother passed away, I've been the one raising you. But it's clear that I failed in educating my children. I don't know how to get along with you, nor do I know how to guide your growth. I always think that giving you the best is enough."
"So I worked really hard to earn money, just to build a family business for you so that you can live a worry-free life in the future. I also wanted to find someone who could take care of you for the rest of your life, so I always took you to various social events and met kids of your age."
"But I overlooked the most important point, which is that you are already an adult and have your own ideas. My old-fashioned way of thinking is no longer suitable for you."
"Although I haven't had much contact with that kid named Lu, I can see that you like him very much. I believe in your vision and respect your choice."
As he spoke, Su Zhenqi handed the suit in his hand to Su Xiaoqiang.
"This suit is a gift from your mother. Now that the size has been changed, it will be troublesome to change it again. You might as well give it to that boy."
Su Xiaoqiang didn't expect that his father called him over for a long-awaited heart-to-heart talk.
She didn't know how to tell her father that Lu Mingfei and she were just a fake couple for one night. She took the suit from Su Zhenqi blankly, and the past events of her and Lu Mingfei's bickering relationship emerged in front of her frame by frame.
A thought suddenly arose in her mind: Are he and I actually quite a good match?
But it seems too late to realize this now.
……
When he opened the door, Xia Mi had indeed returned home first. Just now when Lu Mingfei was downstairs, he saw that the lights in his house were turned on.
Xia Mi got up from the sofa when she heard the door open, and greeted Lu Mingfei with a smile: "Brother, welcome home."
Then he immediately asked, "You came back so late, did you go on a date with Senior Liu Miaomiao?"
“What is it to you?” Lu Mingfei stuck out his tongue and went back to his room and put down his schoolbag.
Xia Mi was right. After school, he walked around the school with Liu Miaomiao before returning home. But it was not quite a date, because the two of them just wanted to go to a nearby bookstore to buy some stationery, but they forgot the time while walking around.
"Come to think of it, I haven't settled the score with you yet." Lu Mingfei returned to the living room and sat down next to Xia Mi. "Why did you suddenly greet me when you were in the gym this afternoon? And Liu Miaomiao saw it."
"I just suddenly saw you, Senior Brother, in the crowd. I was very happy and wanted to say hello to you." Xia Mi pouted and snorted, "Why, have you forgotten about Junior Sister after you got a girlfriend?"
Lu Mingfei curled his lips and thought, “Who would believe you?” You must just want to see me become the target of criticism from all the boys in the school.
This little dragon girl is always like this, wishing that the world would not be in chaos.
"But then again, it doesn't matter even if Liu Miaomiao sees it, right?"
Xia Mi stretched out her finger, pointed to the number "two", shook her head and said:
"Liu Miaomiao has already remembered everything. Are you still trying to hide it from her? Obviously, you only have two choices now. Either be honest with her and tell her everything about the dragon race and the hybrids, or find a way to make her forget these things again."
"But you also know that in my current state, I definitely can't block her memory like before. I can only see if you can find another way to make her lose her memory."
Lu Mingfei knew that Masashi Toyama, a psychological counselor at Kassel College, could use hypnosis and other methods to make ordinary people forget their memories related to the dragon clan.
However, he is not a student of Kassel College yet, and Masashi Toyama doesn’t know him yet, let alone ask him to help him hypnotize Liu Miaomiao.
He had also heard that the human brain is like a disk, and forcing people to forget a certain memory is equivalent to demagnetizing part of the brain. It may not be a problem in the short term, but as people get older, the side effects of hypnosis will gradually become apparent.
Seeing that Lu Mingfei remained silent, Xia Mi continued to attack him without mercy.
"And have you really thought about how to deal with this relationship?"
Lu Mingfei was startled: "What do you mean?" Xia Mi shrugged and said: "I don't know what you think. However, if you really want to stay with her, you only have one choice, and that is not to join Kassel College. Because after you graduate from Kassel College, you will definitely be assigned to the executive department and sent around the world to do various dangerous missions."
Xia Mi's words hit the nail on the head. He had been avoiding Liu Miaomiao's various expressions to him because he felt that the world of mixed-bloods was too far away from that of ordinary people.
But after accepting Liu Miaomiao, he never thought about this question again. Or maybe he never dared to think about it.
Love is of course beautiful, to get married with your first love, to start a family, and then to have two beautiful babies, a brother and a sister. This is the happiness that most people dream of.
But dreams are dreams, reality is reality. Everything is just as Xia Mi said. Once he graduates from high school and chooses to study at Kassel College, Liu Miaomiao and he will become people from two different worlds.
Of course he liked Liu Miaomiao, and he had promised her that no matter where he went, he would never leave her.
"Actually, isn't it good that you don't study at Kassel College?"
Xia Mi suddenly said, "You can go to an ordinary prestigious university with her and become a model couple in the university. After graduation, you can directly join her company as a son-in-law. If you want to start a business, her parents will be able to support you. You can save yourself decades of detours!"
The life Xia Mi talked about seemed very tempting. He could choose to be an ordinary person, live a luxurious life with his lovely wife in his arms, and not have to go on various dangerous missions like the group of people in Kassel Academy. He could live a happy and stable life.
But Lu Mingfei shook his head decisively and denied it: "No!"
Xia Mi fell silent and stuck out her tongue.
Lu Mingfei did not have great ambitions for the dragon-slaying career, nor did he have the same belief as Spider-Man that "the greater the power, the greater the responsibility."
But he still owes a girl. The red-haired witch who regards you as the whole world is still waiting for him to save her in Neon, and he still keeps this in mind.
If I don't join Kassel Academy... and draw a line between myself and the world of mixed-bloods, it would be equivalent to abandoning that girl completely.
He likes Liu Miaomiao, but he can't help but save Hui Liyi.
Xia Mi suddenly clapped her hands and said, "Actually, there is another way."
Lu Mingfei was startled and quickly asked, "What method?"
"You can also let Liu Miaomiao join Kassel College with you." Xia Mi said.
"Let Miaomiao join Kassel College?"
Lu Mingfei paused. In his previous life, Liu Miaomiao had indeed attended an interview for Kassel College with him.
Not only Liu Miaomiao, but also Chen Wenwen, Xiao Tiannv and Zhao Menghua, they all participated in the interview of Kassel College together.
But in the end, he was the only one admitted by the college. Later, he found out that he was actually an internally selected student, commonly known as a relationship student, and Liu Miaomiao and the others were just there to accompany him.
But since no one else was admitted at that time, it means that their bloodline did not meet the requirements.
But since Xiao Longnv said that she could let Miaomiao join Kassel College, maybe Miaomiao's bloodline actually meets the requirements? Maybe she just meets the admission line, so she can be admitted or not.
"Is Miaomiao's bloodline sufficient?" Lu Mingfei asked Xia Mi with the mentality of giving it a try.
"It's a little bit off. I estimate that he can only be rated as D-level, which is not enough to meet the admission threshold of Kassel Academy, and he may not even be able to awaken the Word Spirit." Xia Mi said, "But Su Xiaoqiang's bloodline is not bad. It can barely reach B-level."
"Then you're talking nonsense!"
Lu Mingfei couldn't help but roll his eyes. He remembered that the minimum admission score for Kassel College was C grade. Even though his bloodline didn't meet the standard, Xiao Longnu still said with certainty that Miaomiao could join Kassel College together.
But Lu Mingfei was a little surprised that the little angel's bloodline was so high.
He remembered the photo he saw at Su Xiaoqiang's house. Su Xiaoqiang's mother was wearing a Lionheart Club brooch. Those who could join the Lionheart Club were all elites of Kassel Academy.
Presumably, the little angel's mother is of at least A-grade bloodline, so the little angel, as a mixed-race, can have a B-grade bloodline rating.
But then again, since the little angel's bloodline rating is acceptable, why didn't the Kassel Academy accept her when she interviewed?
"Don't worry." Xia Mi showed an extremely bright and sunny smile on her face, blinked and said: "I actually know a folk remedy to improve bloodline, brother, you can try it with Liu Miaomiao."
A folk remedy to improve bloodline?
"Is it the Nibelungen Plan?" Lu Mingfei asked.
He remembered that the night watchman of Kassel Academy, Vice-Principal Flamel, had designed a project that could use serum purified from dragon blood to awaken the dragon blood in the bodies of hybrids. While helping the hybrids break through the blood limit, it could also allow the experimenters to maintain their self-awareness.
Originally, this technology was intended to be used on the Lionheart Club's president Chu Zihang or the Student Union's president Caesar, in an attempt to use this technology to create a super hybrid similar to the "Emperor".
This combination of alchemical technology and biotechnology is the Nibelung Project.
Using the Nibelungen Plan can indeed significantly improve Liu Miaomiao's bloodline and reach the threshold for entering Kassel Academy.
But the problem is that the cost of this plan is huge. At that time, there was a stalemate over whether to give it to Caesar or Chu Zihang. How could he let Liu Miaomiao participate in the Nibelungen Plan?
"I didn't expect that you knew about the Nibelungen Project, Brother?"
Xia Mi's eyes widened, then she smiled and shook her head, "But what I'm talking about is not this method of 'falsely improving bloodline' through alchemy, but a method that can truly improve a person's bloodline, and the cost is much lower. It only requires you to make a little sacrifice."
There are other ways to improve bloodline? This is beyond Lu Mingfei's knowledge. He quickly asked: "What method?"
Xia Mi hooked her finger at him mysteriously, motioning him to come closer.
Lu Mingfei curled his lips, crawled over the sofa, and moved closer to Xia Mi. Xia Mi used her hand as a tube and whispered something to Lu Mingfei. Lu Mingfei's body stiffened immediately, and then his old face turned red. He quickly retreated to the corner of the sofa and waved his hand:
"No, no, Miaomiao is still so young... and it's hard for me to believe such an outrageous method! I've never heard of anything that can improve bloodline in this way."
"It's true. I'm not lying to you, Senior Brother." Xia Mi spread her hands and smiled evilly, "This is a folk remedy that dragons have come up with through thousands of years of practice."
“Puh, puh, puh!” Lu Mingfei stuck out his tongue, thinking that this lustful dragon girl must be teasing him again, wishing to create chaos in the world!
This method of improving bloodline... is too outrageous!
