Genius Club-Chapter 203 - 41: Huang Que’s Purpose_2

But with just one bend, he had caught up... Clearly, the other was intentionally letting him catch up, waiting for him.

Now, Lin Xian was even more certain that the person on the Ferrari was Huang Que.

This woman had said that she was not Lin Xian’s enemy.

He believed that because she knew far too many of Lin Xian’s secrets—if she truly was an enemy, Lin Xian would have long been dead.

Instead, she had revealed a lot of information at crucial moments and had also guided his attention to the mysterious organization, the Genius Club... So, her appearance was no coincidence.

Since she could accurately stake out his location in Zhao Yingjun’s office,

then, at a gathering like today, her staking out outside the restaurant wasn’t something strange.

For some reason, Huang Que seemed to know his every move... perhaps not every day, but her understanding of him and Zhao Yingjun was frighteningly detailed.

That’s why Lin Xian wanted to catch up with her and ask her for clarity on these matters!

"Caught up, huh!"

Su Su pointed excitedly to the Ferrari a few car lengths away and yelled:

"Just a little more! Pass her!"

For a girl with such strong pride like her, nothing was more thrilling than overtaking the car that challenged her!

She leaned over and began patting Lin Xian’s shoulder:

"Quick, quick, quick! Pass on the left! Roll down the right window!"

"Why?"

"I’m going to give her the finger!!"

"..."

With such a small distance and a straight track, overtaking was much easier for this McLaren with its huge power advantage.

As the right car window slowly lowered, the McLaren sped by the Ferrari’s left side with a slow relative speed, like a gust of wind.

Su Su’s delicate middle finger shot up straight, extending out of the window to the Ferrari just a meter away, making a vehement gesture.

"So satisfying!"

Su Su hummed, sticking out her tongue with a proud expression on her face!

"Man, you’re awesome, brother! You’ve really impressed me!" Su Su slapped Lin Xian on the shoulder, her eyes sparkling:

"Lucky you helped me save face; otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to sleep tonight, haha!"

With that, she took out a piece of chewing gum from her pocket and offered it to Lin Xian:

"Here, have some candy!"

"No thanks."

Lin Xian’s attention was not on this; his eyes were constantly fixed on the Ferrari LaFerrari in the rearview mirror.

He understood that Huang Que would not just happen to come for a race—her leading him here must have a purpose.

As expected.

The Ferrari behind suddenly slowed down, signalling a right turn off the flyover, heading below.

Lin Xian quickly turned the steering wheel to follow.

Glancing ahead, he saw the top of a massive high-rise building lit with white neon letters—

[Donghai University Affiliated Hospital]

Huh?

Why did Huang Que bring him here?

After getting off the flyover, there was a red light, and the cars in front blocked Lin Xian; he could only watch helplessly as the Ferrari LaFerrari entered Donghai University Affiliated Hospital.

The only two times Lin Xian had been here were to visit Xu Yun in Xu Yiyi’s hospital room.

Could it be that Huang Que’s visit was related to Xu Yun or Xu Yiyi?

She was like a riddle, always trying to guide him towards something but ending up as obscure as a lantern riddle, never telling the whole story, which was quite annoying.

The green light came on, and the Ferrari had long disappeared; Lin Xian drove straight into Donghai University Affiliated Hospital... He wasn’t worried about losing sight of Huang Que, as it was evident that she had come to lead the way, more worried that he would lose her.

Lin Xian directly drove to the hospital’s inpatient department.

Just as he had guessed, the red Ferrari was parked at the entrance of the inpatient department.

Lin Xian opened the car door and got out.

"Hey, where are you going?" Su Su shouted from the passenger seat.

"I’m going to visit a patient." Lin Xian waved goodbye to her:

"Thanks for the ride, I’ll make my own way home later, bye~"

"Hey!"

Amid Su Su’s shouting, Lin Xian broke into a jog...leaving Su Su alone in the car, her expression fluctuating.

...

Lin Xian walked briskly to the Ferrari.

The door was unlocked, pressing the handle, the door automatically rose.

Inside, there was still no sign of anyone, Huang Que had already disappeared...

"What’s the matter, popping in and out like a ghost every day."

Lin Xian touched the leather seat.

It was still warm, indicating that woman had just left not long ago.

The car keys were on the dashboard, with a tissue pressed beneath them.

Lin Xian picked up the tissue, on which was written in lipstick a line of words—

"Remember to return the car for me~"

"..."

Lin Xian fell silent.

It seemed that Huang Que really treated Zhao Yingjun like an ATM, freely entering her office, taking the keys, and driving the luxury car.

It was similar to his own relationship with Lee Cheng in The First Dreamland.

Lin Xian got out of the car, straightened up, and looked around.

He saw no trace of Huang Que.

In such dark conditions, it was hard to find someone, especially someone like Huang Que who was adept at hiding.

However...

Lin Xian believed that Huang Que had intentionally lured him to Donghai University Affiliated Hospital with an "ulterior motive," likely to provide him with some clues that she "[couldn’t speak of]," just like last time.

On that rainy night in the office, Huang Que herself said:

"I don’t want to keep it from you, Lin Xian, it’s that I [can’t speak of it]."

What was it that made her unable to speak?

Lin Xian had a hunch that it must be related to the Space-time Law. After explicating why she couldn’t speak, Huang Que advised him to study the Space-time Law more, so there was definitely a connection between the two things.

So, his thoughts returned to the present.

Perhaps it was because Huang Que was bound by some constraints that she couldn’t directly tell him the answers and clues, so she had to "resort to a roundabout way" to bring him to the hospital, prompting him to discover some necessary clues.

And the only person in this hospital who could be related to him...

Was Xu Yiyi.

Lin Xian recalled the girl in a vegetative state on the hospital bed, her body all skin and bones, with not a muscle in sight.

Truthfully, after Xu Yun’s death, Lin Xian had not visited Xu Yiyi’s ward again.

Although he knew that Zhao Yingjun would certainly take good care of Xu Yiyi, but... how to put it, his guilt made him very reluctant to step into Xu Yiyi’s ward.

He had always thought that after catching Xu Yun’s murderer, he would then visit Xu Yiyi and tell her the news.

He had also resolved that once the Hibernation Pod was successfully developed, he would definitely ensure Xu Yiyi was safely transferred into it, fulfilling Xu Yun’s last wish.

In fact.

All of these were just Lin Xian’s procrastination.

"Sigh."

He sighed.

Indeed, it was high time he visited Xu Yiyi.

"No matter what."

Lin Xian stood at the entrance to the inpatient building, looking up at the lights on the 17th floor:

"I should visit Xu Yiyi’s ward."
