1371 Stop!
Jamie’s suggestion seemed ridiculous but after careful deduction, it might be the best solution he could think of.
As his mind ruminated on the idea, Jordan looked at Jamie, “So, you’re here to give me a suggestion that puts me in such a difficult position?”
Jamie said, “Bro, I know you’re a good person and don’t like to use force, but for yourself, for us brothers, for the safety of Earth, you have no choice! Don’t worry, my suggestion will definitely work. If it doesn’t work, I’ll take your last name!”
Jordan looked out of the window and said softly, “Then, I’ll see Lauren tomorrow.”
Jamie walked forward and placed his hand on Jordan’s shoulder. “There’s one more thing that’s very important. After you’re done with her, remember to hug her when she’s feeling the most emotional and tell her that she can’t leave you. Tell her that you want to go to her world to cultivate with her. Women are very emotional. At such a time, she’ll agree to any suggestion you make. Don’t forget to mention me. I don’t care if she agrees to take me as her disciple or grandson!”
…
The next day.
Jordan held Chloe’s hand and walked to Lauren’s villa.
The current capital had changed drastically. There were originally 20 million people in the capital, but now, there were less than 2 million people remaining. The number of cars on the road had also decreased significantly. There were few cars and people in the villa area to begin with, and now there’s almost none.
“Dad, why are there so few people outside today? There are no cars or people.”
Chloe held Jordan’s hand and felt strange too.
Unfortunately, she was only a five or six-year-old girl. She did not know that such an earth-shattering change had happened in the capital.
Jordan said, “Maybe it’s almost the new year, so they’ve all gone home.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a few men in uniforms suddenly jumped out. Jordan subconsciously protected Chloe.
The man hurriedly bowed respectfully to Jordan. “Mr. Steele, we’re from the Space Administration. My name is Stan Fuller. I wonder if you’re here to look for Miss Lauren?”
Jordan glanced at him. He had some impression of this middle-aged man. He nodded. “So, it’s the former physics genius, Chief Fuller. Even our Steeles couldn’t poach you. I’m indeed here to look for Chloe’s mother. What are you doing here?”
Stan said, “More than ten years ago, I was very honored to be invited by the Steeles. However, I know that my talent is limited and I’m really not worthy of working with the many geniuses of the Steeles. Therefore, I returned to serve the country. I’ve been in charge of the space agency for a few years now. Even so, after Mr. Steeles moved into the capital, I contacted some of the senior experts of the Steeles. Sometimes, I was invited to discuss with them. It’s really an honor.
“I believe that Mr. Steele, I, and the experts under you are all very shocked that such a thing suddenly happened. This has completely subverted our professional understanding, right? We urgently want to know which planet Miss Lauren is from, the location of that planet, and how she came here. I hope Mr. Steele can help us ask this question later.”
At this moment, Chloe became curious. “Daddy, why did he say that Mommy isn’t from Earth? Is Mommy an alien?”
Hearing this, Stan felt awkward. “This… Miss Chloe still doesn’t know? I’m… I’m really sorry!”
Jordan said, “Forget it. I was going to tell her anyway. You don’t have to come specially because I came to see Lauren this time to ask about these things. Chief Fang, you’re not the only one who cares about the country and Earth. If I need you to entrust me with such matters, aren’t you thinking too badly of me?”
Stan was overjoyed. “Ah, I’m relieved to hear that, Mr. Steele! I’m so happy that Earth has you!”
“Yeah.”
Jordan did not say anything else. He held Chloe’s hand and walked forward, leaving Stan with a tall and upright back view. No one would have thought that Jordan was going to do something bad to Lauren this time.
On the other hand, Chloe was overjoyed. She kept grabbing Jordan’s hand and asked, “Is Mommy an alien? Daddy, are you an alien too?”
