Chapter 388
Chapter 388: Competition
When Chu Nan walked out of the laboratory, he discovered that the sky had already turned dark.
Looking down at the time, it was already past 7 PM.
Elvy sent Chu Nan out of the laboratory and waved at him.
“Brother Chu Nan, tell Sister Angie Prairie that I won’t be going today. I want to study these data properly.”
“There’s no need to be so anxious, right? It’s not like I have to get the results today.” Chu Nan was surprised.
In the experiment just now, Elvy had checked him in all aspects.
However, unlike the checkup he did in the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, Elvy’s checkup was more focused on the subtle changes in Chu Nan’s body.
According to her, her goal was to figure out the specific reason why the cultivation method Chu Nan cultivated could change the genes of the human body. Then, she would help him adjust and improve himself through this research to complete the breakthrough of the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate.
In fact, Chu Nan did not think much of this. After all, no matter how talented Elvy was in genetic engineering, she was only a 14-year-old girl and was only a student of Star Cloud Academy. Be it experience, qualification, or equipment, she was clearly lacking. It was impossible for her to develop such important research so easily.
Moreover, in terms of the relationship between martial techniques and genes, Supremacy Oville was clearly the top expert in this aspect. If Chu Nan really wanted to obtain help in this aspect, it was clearly easier to find her.
…
However, Elvy looked excited and confident, so Chu Nan naturally would not disappoint her.
In any case, so be it. It was not like he would lose anything.
However… when he recalled that Elvy had forced him to take off only his underwear and was still pinching his body everywhere with a scrutinizing expression, Chu Nan could not help but feel a chill in his heart.
This girl usually looked like a very normal girl, but when she was doing professional research, she immediately seemed to have changed her appearance.
“But I’m anxious.” Elvy smiled and pushed Chu Nan, “Alright, Brother Chu Nan, go first. I plan to stay in the laboratory all night. If you still have time after your date with Sister Angie Prairie, you can help me do research.”
“What date? I’m just going to meet and eat…”
Before Chu Nan could finish speaking, Elvy suddenly made a face at him and closed the door. Then, he heard a strange sound coming from the laboratory. It seemed that she had already excitedly started to study it again.
“No wonder she can become an expert in this aspect at such a young age…” Chu Nan shook his head and turned to walk out.
Today, he had originally arranged to meet Elvy, Angie Prairie, and the other two for a meal. However, he did not expect that Elvy was addicted to studying his problem. Not only did she not even eat, she even planned to stay up all night.
“Will Angie Prairie be disappointed if she finds out that Elvy didn’t come?”
Just as Chu Nan was thinking about this, a figure suddenly darted out and stood in front of him.
“Heh, what’s wrong today?” Chu Nan could not help but laugh.
When he left the Martial Arts Branch just now, he was stopped by Feng Mingxi. Now that he was about to leave the Life Science Academy, another person ran over and stopped him.
“Chu Nan, what were you doing in Miss Elvy’s laboratory just now?” The person’s expression was gloomy and his tone revealed a chill and anger. He looked at Chu Nan with an extremely unfriendly gaze.
Chu Nan focused his gaze and thought for a moment before recognizing him.
This guy was one of the male students who had pestered Elvy last time.
Looking at his gaze staring at his chest, Chu Nan lowered his head in confusion and discovered that a part of his chest was open. He had not had the time to button the two buttons when he put on his clothes again.
With his current disheveled appearance and his actions of having just left Elvy’s laboratory, it was indeed very easy to misunderstand something.
Chu Nan looked at the nervous and angry expression of the guy opposite him and found it funny.
He originally wanted to make a joke to agitate the other party, but on second thought, he felt that this would affect Elvy’s innocence, so he pretended to be calm with a trace of surprise and asked, “Just an experiment. What else can I do?”
That boy was stunned by Chu Nan’s question before he looked at him suspiciously and then at the laboratory behind him. He thought for a moment and his expression softened for a moment before he glared at him even more fiercely.
“I’m warning you, don’t approach Miss Elvy anymore! I’ve already sent people to investigate. Your family is only an ordinary farmer on the Purple Cloud Planet. You’re not worthy of Miss Elvy at all! I don’t know how you tricked her into calling you brother! If I tell Miss Elvy’s family about this, you’re dead!”
Chu Nan was even more amused.
He looked at this boy who should be a year or two older than him and asked, “What? Do you like Elvy? You want to pursue her?”
“It’s none of your business!” The boy shouted with a cold expression, “In any case, I won’t allow you to pester Miss Elvy again. Otherwise, you’ll bear the consequences.”
Chu Nan put away the smile on his face and narrowed his eyes to size up the other party before nodding.
“In that case, you shouldn’t be the one who sent those people last time.”
“What?” The boy was stunned.
Chu Nan thought for a moment and patted his shoulder before asking, “I want to ask you about someone.”
The boy took a step back warily. “Who do you want to ask? Let me tell you, I won’t tell you casually.”
Chu Nan laughed, “There’s no need to be nervous. I’m just casually asking. That guy should be your competitor. His hair is brown and he looks like this…”
…
Ten minutes later, Chu Nan left the Life Science Academy in satisfaction.
He had actually unexpectedly heard some information he had long wanted to know from that boy.
When he was attacked by Kemel and the others, Chu Nan had already suspected that the middle-aged man who entrusted them to attack should be related to the male students who were pestering Elvy that day.
Otherwise, it was impossible for him to have coincidentally threatened those guys in front of Elvy and suffered targeted revenge.
According to the information provided by the boy earlier, a middle-aged man indeed often appeared beside the brown-haired boy called Kulenka. There was indeed a very eye-catching mole on his neck, so Chu Nan easily confirmed that the person who instructed Kemel and the others was this guy called Kulenka.
As for why he did not hide anything and allowed Chu Nan to easily find out this information, it was probably because he did not take Chu Nan seriously.
This was because according to the boy who called himself Joshua, with Elvy’s status, commoners were not qualified to approach her. The boys who pursued her had sufficient family background.
“What right does an ordinary person from a farmer’s family have to approach Miss Elvy?!”
When he recalled that Joshua still had a disdainful expression when he spoke of this, Chu Nan could not help but laugh again.
This guy was clearly older than him, so why was he so childish?
How old was he? He still kept talking about his family background. It was simply a fool’s dream to win Elvy’s favor.
Of course, from his point of view, this made sense.
After all, Elvy’s family background was extraordinary. According to common theory, her future marriage partner should be similar to her in terms of family background.
It was indeed impossible for a boy from an ordinary farmer’s family like Chu Nan to have any interaction with her.
“Heh, speaking of which, these guys are really anxious. Although Elvy has developed well, she’s only 14 years old after all. What’s the hurry?”
Chu Nan shook his head and smiled as he quickly walked towards the location he had agreed on with Angie Prairie.
