Chapter 1444


    After bidding Fade farewell, Susie quickly closed the door and let out a sigh of relief. Finally, she


    could be a little more rxed.


    She turned around to face Garvet and said with a smile, "Dad, it''s sote at night, why did you


    come to me at this hour?"


    He said, "I''ve wrapped up an experiment this afternoon and it urred to me that I haven''t visited


    you for half a year, so I came over. Why? Are you not happy to see me?"


    "Of course not!" Susie hugged his arm, acting like a teenager in front of her father. She crooned


    softly, "Dad, I''m just worried you''ll be tired. Your work has kept you upied for at least half a year


    on each experiment and you didn''t even get a day off. It''s too much work for you."


    "Well, when what you''re working on concerns the development of technology and science of our


    country, you can''t just get a day off." Garvet looked at her and said, "If we''re talking about tired, I bet


    I''m still second to you. I keep seeing you here and there on TV. With you travelling that frequently,


    I''m more worried about you." "Dad, I''m fine. I''m not tired," she said.


    Garvet got up and said, "Alright, it''s gettingte. Come help me with your favorite dishes."


    "Ooh, your dishes taste the best, Dad." Susie smiled. The two of them then made their way into the


    kitchen and began to cook.


    Soon, the meal was served. Rare for her, she had a great appetite that night, and after the dinner,


    she was lying on the sofa with her hand over her belly. She looked nothing like a celebrity at all.


    Garvet cleaned up the tes and cutleries before joining her in the living room and they started


    chatting.


    He suddenly asked, "Susie, the man just now is not a staff member of yourpany, right?"


    "Uh huh..." She nodded to it naturally, but when she realized what Garvet had said, she immediately


    sat up and nervously exined, "Dad! Didn''t I tell you that he''s a staff member of ourpany


    already? He was here just to discuss some work-rted matters."


    "Really? If he''s just a colleague, then why are you looking so nervous?" He asked.


    Susie blinked and shook her head. "Dad, I''m not nervous at all. You must be mistaken."


    "Is that so?" He red at her and said, "Then why are you wearing your clothes inside out? Plus,


    your bed is also quite a mess. Don''t tell me that you two are discussing work matters on your bed."


    She immediately looked down at her attire. She was indeed wearing her outfit inside out. She


    turned around and saw the door to her bedroom slightly ajar, and from their angle, the messy bed


    was clearly visible.


    Susie blushed as she struggled toe up with an exnation. "Dad, it''s not what you think, we..."


    Garvet swung his hand and said, "Susie, you''re not a little girl anymore. I won''t object if you''ve


    found yourself a boyfriend. But then, your industry can be prettyplicated, and I''m just worried


    you might be deceived by someone with bad intentions. Can you understand me?"


    She said, "Dad, don''t worry. Thepany spares no hospitality on me, and I won''t be involved in


    those messy situations you mentioned, and also, that guy, he''s just a friend."


    "Since he''s just a friend, what happened on that bed?" Garvet stared at her.


    Her face flushed, Susie quickly exined, "Dad, it''s not what you think... He''s a doctor, and he was


    giving me massage therapy, hence the bed."


    "Is that so? " He still didn''t quite buy it, but when he saw Susie''s flushed cheeks, he didn''t pursue


    the matter any further. Instead, he sighed and said, "Fine then, but next time, if you get yourself a


    boyfriend, bring him to me. I want to at least help you monitor him."


    "I will, Dad. Don''t think too much." She nodded.


    She finally stopped Garvet from questioning any further. Meanwhile, Fade rushed towards the


    campus after leaving Susie''s ce.

    As he drove, he couldn''t help but recall what had just taken ce at Susie''s house. He murmured to


    himself, "Fade... What''s wrong with you today? Why didn''t you control yourself better? You almost


    did that to Sister Song...."


    "Could it be that I''ve been holding back my desire for too long recently and haven''t been able to


    release it? Is that why I acted like this?" Fade questioned himself as his actions towards Susie just


    now were out of the ordinary.


    As he thought about it, Fade suddenly felt that his temperature began to rise again, and his skin


    was burning.


    He immediately turned on the air conditioning unit in his car and tried to cool his head by the cold


    wind.


    However, that did little to help, and he was feeling hotter as time went by.


    "What''s wrong with me? Could it be that Sister Song was just so tempting that I''m still thinking about


    her? But this is just too weird!" He felt as if blood was charging to his eyes yet again.


    Just as he felt that something was wrong, his cell phone rang.


    He pulled over on the side of the road. He got out from the car, and as he stood under the cold night


    breeze, he felt slightly better. He picked up the phone, "Hello, who is this?"


    "Hello, Instructor Chen, it''s me, Romeo!"


    "Romeo, why are you calling me now? What''s up?" Fade was a little surprised.


    Romeo, who was on the other end of the line, said in a frustrated tone, "Instructor Chen, we have


    been set up by Ingram."


    "Ingram set us up? What do you mean?" Fade asked in confusion.


    Romeo said, "Ingram was up to no good. He sent someone to drug us at the party. I felt something


    was wrong on my way home. After I got home, I lost control of myself. After I helped myself to it, I


    went to a doctor and found that I was drugged."


    Hearing this, Fade was shocked and he said, "D*mn, it''s Ingram who did this to me."


    "Instructor Chen, are you alright? You didn''t do anything out of line, did you? I remember you sent


    Miss Song home. Could it be that you..." Romeo then grinned on the other side of the phone.


    "Piss off, kid, don''t even go there. Miss Song and I are innocent. With my skills, do you think I''d be


    at the mercy of that drug? Of course I suppressed it!" Fade said.


    "I got it, I got it. I''m d that you''re fine." Romeo said, "By the way, Instructor Chen, since Ingram is


    scheming against us, how should we repay him?"


    Fade''s eyes sank, chill settling in his eyes. He said, "Now that the day of the opening of the Dragon


    Mausoleum is approaching, I''ll let him get away with this first. Wait till I settle my things, then I''ll get


    him to pay for this."
