The following day, in the morning.
Xu Yuqin put the last cola chicken wing into the insulated box.
After glancing at the still-steaming chicken wings, Xu Yuqin turned her head to look at the small insulated containers beside her.
The stir-fried bok choy was crisp and glistening with oil; the rice was packed tightly together; and there was a separate jar of plum juice to cut through the richness.
She nodded in satisfaction, then closed the lid and put it into the lunchbox bag.
"Here, hold on tight." Xu Yuqin shoved the heavy lunchbox bag into Shen Heng's hands, then looked up at him.
"Remember, make sure you make sure your sister finishes her meal. She's lost a lot of weight recently; she must not be eating properly again."
Shen Heng took the lunchbox bag and felt the slight warmth emanating from it.
He nodded. "Okay, I got it! If there's nothing else, I'll be going now to catch my flight!"
"Don't just know," Xu Yuqin, chasing him to the door, her voice following his footsteps downstairs.
"You need to watch her eat and tell her to send me a picture of the empty lunchbox when she's done!"
"Okay, I got it!" Shen Heng waved his hand and disappeared into the corridor.
Get on the bus, drive off, get off the bus, board the plane.
With a deep roar of engines, the plane slowly took off.
After receiving a car from the staff who had been handling his reception at the airport for the past two days, Shen Heng drove away.
An hour later, outside Capital University.
After waiting in the car for a while, Shen Heng finally saw a figure slowly walking towards him from a distance.
She wore a neat low ponytail, with a few wisps of hair falling gently across her forehead.
With slender eyebrows and eyes, pale lips, and a slightly aloof expression, he possessed a unique charm.
He wore a navy blue fleece sweatshirt with the sleeves rolled up to his forearms, and light gray jogger pants with white shoes.
Her slender figure, wrapped in casual clothes, gave her an overall aura like a cool, verdant bamboo stalk.
Is it Late Second Tier?
Northern Martial Arts only started school in August two years ago. Counting the time it took to sense Origin Power, it's been almost a year and a half now?
Shen Heng glanced at the approaching figure, then rolled down the car window and waved.
Seeing this, Shen Shuning hesitated for a moment before walking to the car.
Where did you get your car in Capital?
"It's a company arrangement. I'll be staying for a few days, so having a car is more convenient," Shen Heng explained casually, then gestured to Shen Shuning with his lunchbox bag, "Get in the car and eat. Mom made your favorite cola chicken wings."
Shen Shuning glanced at the black car in front of her, paused, and said, "Let's go to my dorm."
"You still have a dormitory at Capital University?"... Shen Heng looked at Shen Shuning and asked uncertainly, "Would it be convenient for me to come over?"
"It's okay, I live alone in my dorm," Shen Shuning said clearly.
Shen Heng paused for a moment. Was this because he was worried that Shen Heng might come to the school to take a look, so he specially arranged for a dormitory to be moved here?
Led by Shen Shuning, the two walked into Capital University.
Along the way, Shen Shuning showed her familiarity with the campus, leading Shen Heng through the winding streets of Capital University without a second thought.
Shady ancient trees, red brick buildings...
A moment later, the two arrived at their dormitory.
Shen Heng handed over the lunchbox bag, then scanned the dormitory room with his eyes.
It's a simple one-bedroom apartment with a bathroom on the outside, connected to the balcony.
The interior was equally simple, containing nothing but a bed, a desk, and a wardrobe.
Shen Heng's gaze swept around before finally settling on the desk where Shen Shuning was sitting.
She was already eating in small bites. Beside her was an open book and several sheets of paper with writing on them.
Looking at those sheets of paper with writing on them, I suddenly understood Shen Shuning's intention.
Is she trying to show herself that she's studying hard at school, so she can put Xu Yuqin's mind at ease when she gets back?
Turning his gaze to Shen Shuning, Shen Heng spoke:
How was your life at school...?
Half an hour later, watching the car drive away, Shen Shuning breathed a sigh of relief as if she had been relieved of something.
She turned around, picked up her phone to make a call, and walked back into the campus of Capital University.
After a while, a knocking sound came from outside the dormitory.
Shen Shuning walked over and opened the door.
There stood a girl with a high ponytail and a smooth forehead.
"Hey, Shuning, why did your brother suddenly show up? And he even brought you food," Xiao Bai'er, somewhat displeased.
"I don't know. They said they were coming on a business trip to meet with a client." Shen Shuning slowly shook her head.
She paused for a moment, then said:
"Bringing lunch was probably something my mother thought of on the spur of the moment this morning."
"Seriously, we were in such a rush. If we hadn't run into the principal and he hadn't helped with the approval, we wouldn't have been able to get here in time!" Xiao Bai'er said indignantly.
"Anyway, at least we managed to borrow it." Shen Shuning breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hmm," Xiao Bai'er nodded, "But I didn't expect the principal to be involved in these things. I thought he didn't care about anything, but he's so easy to talk to..."
Meanwhile, Shen Heng arrived at the headquarters of the Supervision Bureau.
After a quick registration, he headed towards the Lakeside Center, where he had stayed once before.
Along the way, he encountered many people who exuded a strong Origin Power.
The Great Xia has two to three hundred city-level regions, which means that there are two to three hundred people attending this meeting.
Considering the arrival time of the planes, most of them will indeed begin to arrive this afternoon.
Therefore, encountering it is inevitable.
However, everyone remained restrained, and there were no provocations or confrontations as often seen in online novels.
This is partly because the Supervision Bureau has very strict rules, and not many people dare to challenge them.
On the other hand, the news about the nuclear explosion has already caused a stir online.
Nuclear explosions occurred in eight locations; this cannot be concealed even if one tries.
Therefore, anyone who pays even a little attention would know that this sudden emergency meeting probably didn't bring good news.
In this situation, nobody is interested in doing anything else.
Everyone is waiting, waiting for the meeting the day after tomorrow.
After closing the door, Shen Heng gazed at the lake outside the window and fell into deep thought.
He tried to think of what was possible, but he had too little information to draw any valid conclusions.
After a moment, he let out a soft sigh and put the idea aside.
"We'll see what happens at the meeting the day after tomorrow..."
Putting that thought aside, Shen Heng began to think about the people he should contact next.
Hmm... We'll talk about the Daoist priest later, anyway, we'll definitely see him the day after tomorrow.
And then...
