Professor Luo Hui's Response

Zhou Yueyan's life was very difficult.

Professor Luo Hui's life became unbearable.

If it weren't for the difficulty Luo Tianming faced in leaving the old mansion, the obstruction caused by Zhou Xin's affair, and his own choice not to report it, Professor Luo Hui felt that if Luo Chong had been killed, he would most likely have followed Luo Chong in death.

The Luo family controls some commercial banks, but Luo Tianming keeps everything firmly in his grasp and rarely delegates power and benefits.

He was merely Luo Tianming's adopted son, not his biological son.

As the chief steward of the Luofu Empire, Luo Tianming could not have any children, and his relationship with Luo Hui and others was indeed limited.

What Luo Tianming needs is a usable and obedient chess piece. If it is not very useful or is disobedient, then there is no need for such a chess piece to exist.

Professor Luo Hui understood this principle long ago and has always lived by it. However, there was some backlash from the third generation, Luo Burang, and the fourth generation, Luo Gaogao, had his own opinions.

Luo Burang and Luo Gaogao should be grateful for the changes brought about by the times. If it were Luo Zhong's era, both of them would have died without leaving a trace.

Luo Hui also has to thank the rules of the twilight years of this era, which bind Luo Tianming to the twilight mansion, making it difficult for him to go out easily.

Professor Luo Hui still hasn't dared to mention Luo Chong's head injury to Luo Tianming, and keeps making excuses that the Zhou Household is in control.

At this moment, he only hoped that Zhou Rihui could enter the Sixth Sequence and then defeat him decisively.

Only in this way can the truth about Luo Zhong's head being severed be kept secret.

This could also lead to a conflict between Luo Tianming and Zhou Rihui, which might be the only way for him to find relief.

"Your hands only have a simple infection; a small amount of toxin has entered your body. Your body will clear the toxins in two to three months. If you want to clear the toxins as soon as possible, I can give you an injection of antitoxin serum, and then you can rest and recover!"

Professor Luo Hui stared expressionlessly at the patient Zhou Yueyan had shoved into his arms after their heated argument.

He gets a headache just looking at patients, and Professor Luo Hui just wants to get rid of this unlucky guy as soon as possible.

After a brief examination, Professor Luo Hui gave Ning Que an injection of saline solution, thus dismissing him.

Of course, actions are one thing, and words are another.

Professor Luo Hui felt somewhat relieved after seeing Ning Que thank him profusely after being injected with saline solution before leaving.

"What kind of mess is this? Why am I the only one who suffers?!"

Ning Que could be easily dismissed, but Ren Yisheng, a seriously ill patient who almost died, was still causing trouble, and Ren Wuyang even complained to the Sequence Committee.

But Luo Tianming controlled the Luo family's finances, so how could he possibly come up with any compensation?

Now all he can do is attend the trial on time, and let the verdict be as it may be. As for compensation, he'll delay it as long as possible, and if he can't delay it, he'll slip a note to Luo Tianming at the old mansion.

"Us..."

Luo Tianming ate the meat, and Professor Luo Hui drank the soup.

Professor Luo Hui had no desire for soup at the moment, and for the first time, he set his sights on Luo Burang and Luo Gaogao as the targets of the united front.

Luo Burang became an exchange scholar, while Luo Gaogao was in the process of recuperating.

If it weren't for the ferocious beast belts worn by Zhang Xuezhou and others, Professor Luo Hui would be certain that Luo Gaogao had completely fallen behind among the younger generation.

But being behind has its advantages. Luo Gaogao, in the Second Sequence, defeated Azo Allen of the British Alliance State by relentlessly attacking and harassing him, thus securing a direct route to the Third Sequence and even acquiring his own resources, without having to rely on Luo Tianming for everything.

"Luo Burang is completely ruined after being affected by Luo Zhong. I'll hold on for as many days as I can, or I might be ruined too. Only Gao Gao is left!"

Professor Luo Hui is in the Sixth Sequence, which indicates a very high rank.

However, he has a fatal flaw: he is almost a perfect replica of Luo Tianming, but not a complete one.

The belief of Luo Tianming's generation was that teaching a disciple would lead to the master's starvation, and they would keep their trump card firmly in their hands. If Luo Tianming wanted to get rid of him, Professor Luo Hui saw no hope of winning, even if he launched a rebellious sneak attack.

Luo Tianming knew him all too well. Even a single word from Professor Luo Hui, a glance during a meeting, or any unusual behavior could trigger a rapid reaction from the other party, rendering all his efforts futile.

"Beep! Beep! Beep!"

As Professor Luo Hui was deep in thought, his communicator suddenly rang, which made him feel terrified.

Only when he saw that the sender on the communicator was Zhang Xuezhou did he reach up and wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Ning Que said you confirmed it was poisoning and treated him with antivenom. Professor Zhou asked me to ask you what kind of poison it was?"

"B3X double bacterial infection, a new strain I named. I will write some related papers later. This strain is difficult to detect with conventional instruments and does not pose a threat to the body. It will return to normal after two to three months of detoxification!"

Professor Luo Hui calmed down and quickly sent back a rambling message full of lies.

This is something he's been doing a lot lately—deceiving and bluffing whenever possible, and the person he's trying to deceive after getting used to it is Luo Tianming.

Seeing Zhang Xuezhou's reply, "Then I'm relieved," Professor Luo Hui couldn't help but feel a little smug, thinking that whoever he was deceiving would fall for it, and that his ability in this area was constantly improving.

He was just about to reply with a smiley face to Zhang Xuezhou to end their chat when another profile picture appeared in the chat box.

Seeing the contact name "Every Needle is Love" and the familiar smiling face on the profile picture, Professor Luo Hui quickly answered the call and then remained motionless.

"Hello, Luo Hui? Hui? Hui'er?"

Can you hear me on your end?

"Is it stuck again?"

What kind of backward communication infrastructure do we have here?

The communicator sent a video message. After about ten seconds, Luo Tianming hung up the call and switched to direct communication.

This prompted Professor Luo Hui to leap quickly to a visual instrument that had been prepared beforehand.

The communication was connected, and Luo Tianming's voice continued to ask questions, while on his end, the video recorder played incomplete and noisy signals.

"This damn communication system! I can't hear Luo Hui's voice on my end, Luo Hui probably can't hear mine either. Chang Kongluo, is your communicator signal working properly? Can you make a call to your son? If you don't want to talk to those unfilial children, I'll find someone else to help!"

The sound from the communicator eventually faded away.

Professor Luo Hui watched as Luo Tianming abruptly ended the communication, and then turned off the noisy video recorder.

"Gao Gao, Gao Gao, could you please cut off Grandpa's communication signal... What's going on? Don't ask too many questions, Grandpa wouldn't hurt you, and he certainly wouldn't hurt himself!"

Professor Luo Hui took a deep breath.

Luo Gaogao's involvement in satellite communications also has certain advantages; at least he possesses the Jiang family's internal test account and has management authority over communication signals.

For example, entering the communication account name could directly cut off the communication function of Professor Luo Hui's communicator, or disconnect Luo Tianming's communicator, or even cut off the signal in the old mansion area.

Luo Gaogao would use his authority to perform deceptive operations or block Luo Tianming's communications, while Professor Luo Hui would use physical means to disrupt the communications of the Old Age Mansion, making it difficult for the mansion to maintain smooth communication.

As long as he can avoid contact with Luo Tianming, he can suppress the matter for the time being.

If Zhou Rihui and others are given time to develop, this might lead to a confrontational situation.

Bound by the rules of the Old Age Mansion, Luo Tianming's free time to go out is not long, and it is even more difficult to start a violent conflict. It is almost impossible to deal with all this in a short period of time.

If time drags on any longer, Luo Tianming will truly grow old.

Professor Luo Hui continued to refine his plan. When his eyes inadvertently swept across the communicator, he suddenly noticed Zhang Xuezhou, whose contact name was "Learning is like sailing against the current," and he also thought of the Mental Strengthening Chapter.

This cast a shadow over his mind, making it difficult for him to know whether Luo Tianming would rely on this mental ability to gain a longer lifespan.

Luo Tianming even had the qualifications to use the extract from the giant bird beast, as the other party possessed a reagent that could potentially propel him into the Seventh Sequence.

Perhaps he can outlast the Luo family and ultimately inherit their vast assets and power, or perhaps Luo Tianming will rise from the ashes and leave him no chance whatsoever, and Professor Luo Hui will die of old age before him.

The unpredictable passage of time presented Professor Luo Hui with a difficult problem, making it hard for him to understand his future.
