Dow and Carbon-Based Monkey Breeding Guidelines

Chapter 806

Bright sunlight pours in from a row of floor-to-ceiling windows.Under the bright morning light, Li Li showed a pensive expression.

After a while, she considered her words and said: "I was born in a merchant family, and the family had some ancestral property. Later, thanks to my father's management, the family business became more prosperous... This may be suspected of boasting, but frankly Said that the assets held by me alone are quite rare among my peers. And I am not the only child in the family. I have an elder brother and a half-sister.”

Hearing this, Zhou Yu couldn't help but slightly raised his eyebrows.Noticing the change in his expression, Li Li immediately smiled.

"I can guess what you're thinking, Mr. Zhou Yu." She said immediately, "A rich man, three wives and four concubines, children of different mothers fighting each other, this is a traditional drama, there is nothing new under the sun. But I would like My father, you bet, was not such a...casual sexual guy. My biological mother died of cancer, and my father only met his second wife, my sister's mother, after that. To be fair, She is quite an unforgettable beauty, Mr. Zhou Yu, if you don't mind, I think she looks a lot like Ms. Zhou Yu."

"You mean looks?"

"No, in terms of appearance, Ofelie is a lady of mixed race with obvious Caucasian ancestry. However, it is amazing that she has a very classical poetic temperament, which made my father crazy about her for a time. They met after less than a month I fell in love. My biological mother died less than a year ago, and my older brother and I were both under six years old. You can imagine the uproar it caused in my biological mother's family. Despite the great pressure, my father was still stubborn and insisted on Married to each other. A year after they got married, Ophelia became pregnant."

When she said this, she waved her fingers casually, as if trying to repel flying mosquitoes and flies.

"This matter undoubtedly has a major impact on stakeholders. They tried to make Ophelia miscarry, make my father make a guarantee of succession, and even arrange for a popular actress to meet my father—we may wish to discuss the specific process. Omit. In a nutshell, it was all in vain. Ophelia, as if she was protected by a god, cleverly avoided all kinds of conspiracies and successfully gave birth to my younger sister Li Xu. However, on the day of giving birth, One night, she died extremely suddenly."

"...Is it difficult to give birth? Or is it a human accident?"

"I'm afraid it's neither."

Facing Zhou Yu's strange gaze, Li Li showed that pensive smile again, and after a while she said, "Ophelia is not the only one who died, Mr. Zhou Yu. At that time, all the medical staff in the ward , they all died brutally. I didn't use the word 'killed' because the ward was completely closed at that time. My father and relatives were waiting outside the door the whole time, and no one could enter the delivery room under their noses According to the information I found later, the cause of death of all the deceased, including Ophelia, was rupture of the abdominal cavity, and the cause could not even be identified. The only person who survived at that time was my sister Li Xu. In order to protect her, my father used his personal relationship to silence the hospital, compensated the family of the deceased with huge sums of money, and bought a newspaper that knew about it. This matter has since been hidden from public view.”

Li Li said this in an extremely neutral tone, and it was difficult to discern her praise or criticism in that speech.Even so, Zhou Yu still felt faint dissatisfaction in his heart, especially when he heard the part that covered up the death incident, he was filled with some kind of anger that he couldn't express.

In order to cover up this sudden emotion, he tried his best to say in a calm tone: "In this case, how did you know? Lingfu probably wouldn't be willing to mention this kind of thing to you."

"This is because you lack personal experience, Mr. Zhou Yu. In a big family, you can hide your secret from your wife and husband, but not from your servants. They will clean your study, store your clothes, and listen to you In their eyes, you are both a paying host and an entertainer. There is nothing they can't find out. And I was only six years old. No one cares what children of this age think. So when I dumped It is easy to collect information when you lose the nannies and run around in your own home. After listening to the rumors in the mansion, I have to admit that human imagination is not as rich as it is praised in the book. Some people are just following routines. For example, they think that Ophelia was subjected to some kind of insidious head-bending technique by my mother's family, or that my sister Li Xu has some kind of extremely vicious fate. I don't think so. I was so curious that I managed to avoid the servants' surveillance and sneaked into the nursery to see the rumored orphan. For the first time, I realized that newborn babies are disappointingly ugly, even Ophelia's Daughters are not immune either."

When Li Li said this, "Tiger" suddenly let out a muffled laugh.He ignored Zhou Yu's surprised gaze, and Gu took out a bottle of whiskey from under the counter and drank it.

"I didn't hire you to consume excess alcohol, kudzu."

"Entertainment time, boss," he replied, squinting. "When someone starts telling a story, I must have a drink or two."

Li Li tapped the armrest of the chair, but finally decided to compromise.She still did not shy away from the existence of "Tiger", and continued to say calmly: "I swear to you, Mr. Zhou Yu, even though her birth was full of ominousness, I still love my sister deeply. I have been watching her from baby to baby." into a child, then a girl. When her features were fully developed, I was amazed to find that she was a complete copy of Ophelia, without any of my father's looks. I have seen many children look like their parents, But Li Xu and Ophelia, they already made my hair stand on end. As she grew older, I began to fear that she would suffer the same fate as Ophelia. This fear kept appearing in my dreams. A plot. I always dreamed that she was married, pregnant, and died in an unbelievable way at the moment of giving birth, leaving only a baby girl who was exactly like her. In order to get rid of this nightmare, I changed the direction of my career plan, from Computer science turned into statistical genomics - looking at the time with the current eyes, it is inevitable to feel very ridiculous, Mr. Zhou Yu, but I had a very strong belief at the time that my sister's inherited looks must be similar to Ophelia's. Death has something to do with it, there is something in their genes beyond current scientific understanding. And to save my sister from that fate, I have to unravel the mystery."

Zhou Yu listened quietly to her story.When the other party mentioned his half-sister, Hongye's face quietly appeared in front of his eyes.The "Jing Zu" Mo Tian called, and Zhou Yu, who was called the "last descendant", their appearances were so similar that even if they were twins, no one would doubt it.

"...Does she look exactly the same? What about her personality? Is it the same as Ophelia?"

"This can no longer be verified." Li Li said, "It is said that Ophelia's character changed dramatically when she was 16 years old. Little is known about her life before she appeared on the opera stage, and there are many contradictory versions. .Since my younger sister is under 16 years old, I have no way of knowing whether her temperament will tend to be the same as that of Ophelia in the future."

"Wait a minute. You and your sister are only six years apart. Are you under 22 this year?"

"24 years old, Mr. Zhou Yu. If your father is right, we happened to be born in the same year and the same month."

Zhou Yu slowly raised her eyes and looked at Li Li's face.She leaned back in the chair and said nonchalantly: "It was a summer vacation, sir. I returned home from school, and the house was full of green grass and trees. Before entering the main hall, I noticed the roses downstairs It was fully open, so I stood by and watched for a while. The sun was scorching hot, and the cicadas were annoying me, so I took off my coat and handed it to the servant next to me. Just when I was about to loosen my shirt, my sister came from the fifth floor. I jumped down and landed a meter away from me. It was a cobblestone road, and her body was all torn apart, and the blood was all over my shirt, like I was wearing a red dress—that The scariest moment of my life, sir."
