The sudden rejuvenation of a family of three is bound to arouse suspicion, but since Chen Mo intends to enhance them, he naturally has a plan.

On the way here, Chen Mo had already booked a high-end domestic tour for the three of them through J.A.R.V.I.S., so they could have a good time and celebrate Chen Jingde's "awakening". When they returned, even if the neighbors found that they looked younger, they would only think that they were radiant. As long as it was not discovered that such a big change had happened overnight, but rather that they were given a buffer period, the change in their appearance and age would still be acceptable.

People are in high spirits when they have good news. We often see people around us who, when they have good news, become more cheerful and look much younger.

Therefore, after completing the X-Gene Serum enhancement, Chen Mo then began to promote another "drug" that he had developed in his "laboratory" to the three of them.

"The enhancement you just received only gave you a certain level of self-protection, but you still can't fully withstand some fatal injuries. This other potion can make up for its shortcomings."

As Chen Mo spoke, he took out a vial of light blue, Improved Super Soldier Serum and held it out to the three of them.

"It can comprehensively enhance all of your body's abilities, including strength, speed, mental capacity, and the self-healing ability you just acquired. After this enhancement, you will definitely survive even if your heart is pierced by a bullet! However, the enhancement process will be somewhat painful."

If it were anyone else, they would definitely think Chen Mo was a quack selling miracle cures.

However, Chen Jingde and the other two personally experienced the wonders of the X-Gene Serum. With its powerful self-healing ability, all their old injuries and ailments disappeared, leaving them feeling incredibly relaxed, comfortable, and full of energy. In addition, Chen Jingde personally verified the astonishing speed at which the self-healing ability repaired wounds. As a result, the three of them firmly believed in the new medicine that Chen Mo had mentioned, which could comprehensively enhance their physical fitness.

When Chen Mo mentioned that the side effects would be very painful, Chen Jingde simply waved his hand dismissively.

"What's a little pain? No one in our Chen family is afraid of pain!"

After the old man spoke, Chen Mo didn't waste any time and directly injected the three of them with the Improved Super Soldier Serum again. This time the enhancement time was longer, but apart from Zhang Huilan's obvious pain, Chen Jingde and his father just frowned, obviously this pain was nothing to them.

Although Chen Mo felt sorry for his mother, he thought that the suffering was worth it compared to the benefits of the enhancement.

Finally, the three of them completed the enhancement almost simultaneously, and their expressions relaxed completely. With the speed of physical recovery brought by their powerful self-healing ability, the three of them quickly passed through the period of weakness after the enhancement and recovered all their physical strength.

Compared to the previous feeling of ease and comfort after their self-healing abilities were enhanced, this time, the three of them felt it even more strongly.

His previously aging body was once again filled with vitality and strength. His mind became incredibly clear, making thinking effortless and insightful. His reaction speed and memory abilities were greatly enhanced.

Chen Jingde clenched his fists tightly, feeling an unprecedented sense of power contained within them, as if he could smash a hole in the wall if he wanted to.

Chen Jingde naturally wouldn't follow that feeling and smash the wall. He glanced around the room and finally fixed his gaze on Chen Weiguo.

Seeing this, Chen Weiguo knew something was wrong, but then he heard Chen Jingde call out to him.

"Come over!"

Despite his reluctance, Chen Weiguo had no choice but to reluctantly walk over under the oppressive power of his father.

However, Chen Weiguo immediately noticed the problem and looked at Chen Jingde with a surprised expression, saying loudly.

"Dad, how come you look so much younger all of a sudden?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jingde looked at his son and daughter-in-law and noticed that they looked much younger than before, appearing to be in their forties. He figured he must be in the same situation.

However, he didn't care much about age; what he wanted to know most was just how strong he was, so he immediately scolded Chen Weiguo.

"Even if he's young, he's still an old man. Get over here right now!"

Chen Weiguo had no choice but to obediently move closer, seeing that he couldn't escape.

Originally, he thought Chen Jingde would take advantage of his self-healing ability and use him as a punching bag to practice on. Just as he was hesitating whether to block or not, he saw Chen Jingde quickly reach out, grab his shirt at the chest, and then easily lift him up with a strong arm.

Both Chen Weiguo, who was being lifted up, and Zhang Huilan, who was standing to the side, were shocked. Although Chen Weiguo was only a little over 1.7 meters tall, he was very strong and weighed more than 140 kilograms. Most people would not be able to lift him up with both hands, but Chen Jingde, who was over 80 years old, could do it easily with just one hand, which showed how strong he was.

However, while shocked, Chen Weiguo couldn't help but recall the painful experience of being grabbed by the collar and beaten by his father when he was a child. He looked pitifully at Chen Jingde, afraid that his father might suddenly get angry and beat him up again like he did when he was a child.

After easily lifting Chen Weiguo, Chen Jingde felt the powerful strength within his body, nodded in satisfaction, put his son Chen Weiguo down, and then leisurely walked to the mirror to examine his own changes.

Upon seeing this, Chen Jingde was also shocked. He was not just a little younger than he had imagined. He looked at least twenty years younger in the mirror. His originally gray hair had turned completely black, and the loose skin on his face had become much firmer. Although he still had many wrinkles, they were no longer as deep as before.

His originally thin figure has become much more muscular, and his posture is as upright as a pine tree, which looks somewhat similar to his physique when he was young and in the army.

Turning to look at Chen Weiguo and Zhang Huilan, they were the same. Although they hadn't changed as much in age as Chen Jingde, they were at least ten years younger and their figures had become much more agile. It seemed that their strength had also improved significantly, just like his.

For Chen Jingde and his son, both former soldiers, it was a source of great joy to possess physical strength even greater than during their prime. Both were people who refused to grow old, but as they aged, their health deteriorated, and they experienced a decline in all aspects of their lives. The former elite soldiers had become frail old men, and they had to admit that they were getting old. Even the strongest warriors cannot escape the ravages of time; even the bravest warriors eventually grow old.

But now, they have reached another peak in their lives!
