After a Disabled Alpha Marked a Yandere Female Lead - Chapter 20
Chapter 20
It didn’t take long for her to find out the reason.
This evening.
Zhu Qingluo put on a jacket and casually looked down as she passed the corridor.
She saw the gate of the Jiang family wide open, and the butler was leading a person in a white coat inside. He was wearing a mask, and his whole body exuded a serious and solemn aura.
“Who is he?” she said.
Liu Zi also stood beside her and saw this scene. She looked a little longing and replied:
“I heard he is a researcher from the research center and has worked with Professor Shen’s team. This time, he is here to hand over a batch of medical equipment…”
At this time, the person in the white coat handed a box to the butler. It was opened for a moment, revealing the transparent tubes inside.
Zhu Qingluo’s eyes paused slightly, “Are those nutrient solutions?”
By the time Liu Zi went to look closely, the box had been closed, and she hadn’t seen it clearly. Seeing this, she just mumbled:
“It’s nothing. Miss sometimes has a spare one. This batch will definitely be more effective.”
The Jiang family usually replaced the medicine regularly to be prepared for any emergencies, which seemed completely normal.
Zhu Qingluo had a bad feeling in her heart.
Watching the butler go out to see the person in the white coat off, she looked away and asked in a flat and natural tone:
“Did you bring it?”
Liu Zi took out a sticky note from the pocket of her apron. This was what Zhu Qingluo had noted down yesterday.
Zhu Qingluo didn’t take it, but glanced at it and said, “This is from the day before yesterday.”
The other person looked surprised. She looked at it herself and found that the date didn’t match.
This was the first time such a mistake had occurred.
Before she could ask a question, Zhu Qingluo cleared her throat slightly, “Go back and get it. I’ll wait for you here.”
Liu Zi was a little hesitant at first, but she looked up when she heard this.
Looking at her calm face, the sense of integrity in her eyebrows and eyes almost overflowed. Out of her simple trust, Liu Zi nodded.
“Okay.”
Seeing her leave, Zhu Qingluo turned the wheelchair around and took the elevator downstairs.
She came to the cabinet where the box was placed. The bottom of the box was marked with information, and she saw a familiar code, ct-12, from a line of letters.
Zhu Qingluo recalled the relevant plot in the original work. After getting the nutrient solution samples from the research center, Jiang Yun would follow Xie Ke’s suggestion and use her as a test subject first.
This was because Zhu Qingluo’s bl00d type was the most similar to Jiang Yun’s, and the latter’s scent gland was already damaged, while hers was still intact.
As long as she started with her, there was a high probability of finding the “password” to crack the marking that had to be done by her.
In the end, Jiang Yun would no longer need her because of the nutrient solution but would fall into Xie Ke’s conspiracy…
Only then did Zhu Qingluo realize that for Jiang Yun, there was no need to hide the research draft. Letting herself know could also reduce her vigilance.
Moreover, now that Liu Zi was by her side, it would obviously be easier to get started.
The butler’s voice came from outside the door. She put the box back and then returned the way she came before she ran into the other person.
…
Zhu Qingluo felt more relaxed today after her walk.
She returned to her room and suddenly remembered a rehabilitation training manual. She found it from under some books.
This was what the original owner brought back from home. The page was a little yellow, but it didn’t affect reading.
According to the steps above, she tried to control her legs.
Zhu Qingluo clenched the armrest with her palms. Her knuckles turned white, and all her strength was concentrated on her thighs, imagining establishing an overall sensory connection.
This lasted for about ten minutes.
Suddenly, she felt her leg muscles twitch, and a real, subtle reaction came through.
She let out a long sigh of relief, feeling particularly excited.
For some reason, the person in the white coat she saw in the evening and the whole box of nutrient solutions appeared in her mind, and her mood plummeted.
Zhu Qingluo calmed down and found that she had a layer of cold sweat on her body.
In the original work, “she” was still paralyzed in a wheelchair until the later stages, perhaps because of the nutrient solution she had ingested.
Although the first batch of nutrient solutions was said to be safe, the ingredients were complex, and blindly ingesting them might cause her leg muscles to lose their activity again.
At this time, the sky was completely dark.
Zhu Qingluo was shrouded in shadows, looking at the blank sticky note in front of her and lost in thought.
She didn’t want to be a “test subject.”
Half an hour later.
Zhu Qingluo couldn’t calm down, so she opened the door, intending to go out for some fresh air.
After a while, she found that the lights in the living room were still on.
She suddenly stopped her wheelchair and looked to the side, only to see a familiar back on the sofa.
The woman’s posture was lazy and relaxed. She was concentrating on something and didn’t notice her appearance.
Zhu Qingluo didn’t pay attention at first, but from this angle, she could see what the other person was holding.
It looked a little familiar.
Normally, Jiang Yun would have magazines or famous works in her hands, but now there was a third possibility… her jewelry design drawing.
Zhu Qingluo was not sure and looked at it for two more seconds.
Then, she found that it was true, but it was not the original drawing, but a printed copy without her permission.
Zhu Qingluo was not surprised by this. With Liu Zi by her side, it was easy for Jiang Yun to get a copy of the original drawing.
But this behavior was unnecessary.
Zhu Qingluo felt a little strange, but she couldn’t say what was wrong.
…Five minutes passed.
She thought for a moment where she was and decided to pass by the side of the sofa. During this time, the wheelchair made a slight noise as it rolled over the marble floor.
In the quiet air, this sound was clearly audible.
Jiang Yun was holding her chin, her eyelashes lowered. Her gaze had been on the drawing, but her expression was blank for a long time.
Her gaze went over the drawing and looked at Zhu Qingluo, who was approaching slowly.
Jiang Yun’s fingertips pinched the edge of the drawing, and her movements were stiff for a moment. Then she put it down as if nothing had happened.
“What are you doing here?” she said.
“…” Zhu Qingluo was silent for a moment, “Just passing by.”
Although she said that, she still stopped in front of the other person.
“Why did you have someone watch me?”
Hearing this, Jiang Yun looked at her deeply and said half-truthfully: “I was worried you would ‘run away.'”
Zhu Qingluo was speechless.
This sudden silence made Jiang Yun’s attention shift from the drawing. She lifted her eyelids and stared at Zhu Qingluo for a while.
“Are you not satisfied with Liu Zi’s efficiency? Then I’ll change to another one…”
“No.”
Jiang Yun’s eyes narrowed slightly, and a smile appeared on her lips:
“Is that so? You don’t look happy.”
Zhu Qingluo looked preoccupied, as if she was worried about something.
She did not retort to this.
“Tell me.”
“…”
Zhu Qingluo was a little surprised.
However, she thought that expressing her worries would not please the other person.
Because Jiang Yun now trusted Xie Ke, and she was just a “test subject” in her eyes, it was impossible for her to succeed in alienating them with just a few words.
The other person’s attitude remained unchanged, and her tone seemed to be one of concern.
There was a long silence.
Jiang Yun frowned, and the smile on her lips faded. She was clearly displeased with her hesitation.
She often made Zhu Qingluo unhappy, and she was happy to do so.
However, today was a little different. The emotions on the other person were out of control.
This feeling was a little bad.
Just as the atmosphere was getting more and more dull, the butler suddenly walked past and said:
“Miss, this is the list from the research center.”
Jiang Yun looked away and calmly took the list. “Have the things been delivered?”
“Yes.”
The butler immediately understood and bent down to place a box in front of her. When it was opened, it was full of nutrient solutions.
Zhu Qingluo’s gaze fell on it, and her expression was slightly cold.
Jiang Yun casually fiddled with the transparent tubes, picked one up and looked at it between her two fingers, and then put it down, as if she was just counting some dispensable items.
