Invincible Urban Evil Doctor

Chapter 1152: Chapter 1155: What’s Going On? (Part 1)

When he walked closer, it seemed the two of them couldn’t pretend they hadn’t seen him anymore.

Su Qiaoqiao’s body twitched a little, and Lin Mengmeng greeted Lin Xi at a speed that felt slow even on the level of seconds.

Then the two of them went back to playing their game, looking completely absorbed.

Standing behind Mengmeng, Lin Xi glanced at the screen and saw they were playing the hottest current game, PUBG Mobile.

Mengmeng had already been revived by Qiaoqiao, and Qiaoqiao had tossed out another smoke grenade.

The two of them ran in a zigzag toward the house behind them.

At the same time, a lot of gunfire sounded from behind them.

Only, not a single shot hit either of them.

Looked like the enemy was just spraying casually.

Meanwhile, as they ran back, Qiaoqiao was cursing nonstop.

And Mengmeng also seemed to open her mouth, like she wanted to curse too.

But she seemed to remember that Dad was back, and forcibly held it in.

Lin Xi’s face went dark.

He’d only been gone a few days, how had these two little ones turned into completely different people.

They’d even learned to swear.

Who did they learn that from?

Before this, neither of them really swore, they basically didn’t know any curse words.

At most Qiaoqiao would throw out a few "bastard," "shameless," "pervert" and the like.

Now she’d become a full-on trash-talking general.

He immediately felt the urge to tan the little hides of these two—of all the things to pick up, they picked up swearing.

Then again, if you thought about it, swearing wasn’t exactly wrong.

It might even be a way of protecting themselves; at least when they hit society they wouldn’t only be on the receiving end of other people’s abuse.

Or if someone cursed at them and they didn’t curse back,

and accidentally threw a punch instead, the other party would definitely end up crippled if not dead.

You had to remember, one of them had reached the Innate Realm, not much weaker than him.

The other was almost at top special forces level, and her power was still skyrocketing.

With that kind of strength, in school or college, there was no way ordinary people could afford to provoke them.

Besides, when it came to controlling their strength, both of them were actually pretty weak.

Lin Xi’s other women were the same way.

Their control over their power was terrible.

Which was understandable; to them it was like they’d suddenly gotten some kind of overwhelming power.

He watched for a while longer and still couldn’t get interested in the game.

Even though people of every age loved this shooting game.

He didn’t like it because it was just too kiddie.

To him, it was downright fake.

Back in conflict zones and on missions, gunfire raining down, one man taking on hundreds or even an entire rebel unit—those weren’t rare occurrences.

And he’d used every type of weapon under the sun.

So in his eyes, this game was child’s play.

Nowhere near stimulating or realistic enough.

Bai Bing wasn’t home?

He looked around and didn’t see Bai Bing anywhere in the house.

It was already past eight.

By rights, Bai Bing usually got home right on time a little after six.

Could it be because he wasn’t around, so she didn’t bother coming back on time either?

Anyway, even if she came back, they’d just be ordering takeout.

None of the three women could really cook.

Or rather, even if they could, they couldn’t eat what they themselves made.

"Lin Xi, I’m hungry!" Right then he heard Su Qiaoqiao shout, then she went right back to being immersed in the game.

Mengmeng was also distracted by that line.

She gave Lin Xi a look, her eyes full of expectation.

This time, she actually held his gaze for a full two seconds.

Then she dove back in and continued playing with Qiaoqiao.

Lin Xi sighed. Games are harmful, huh.

But he was hungry too.

The food on the high-speed rail was insanely expensive and tasted awful.

Less than half an hour later, four dishes and one soup with generous portions were laid out on the table.

The two little ones had just finished a round, but still hadn’t gotten "Winner Winner Chicken Dinner."

According to them, it was always their teammates screwing them over.

At the dinner table, Qiaoqiao wouldn’t stop nagging Lin Xi, telling him to join the PUBG army after they ate.

He could squad up with them.

And when Sister Bai came back, the four of them would make a complete squad.

Lin Xi shook his head and said Bai Bing definitely wouldn’t play with them.

In his impression, Bai Bing was a CEO—how could she be playing a game like that with them.

Wait, that’s not right.

Who would’ve thought Bai Bing watched K-dramas and anime too.

So maybe she really did play PUBG?

Just thinking about it felt a little unreal.

But he glanced at Qiaoqiao and figured, since she said it like that, she probably wasn’t making it up.

Could Bai Bing really be playing too?

He got his answer the next second—Bai Bing really did play.

And every day after work, the three of them would lie on the couch and begin their PUBG sessions.

Lin Xi: "..."

He really hadn’t seen that coming.

Still, he refused Qiaoqiao, even with Mengmeng’s big googly eyes staring at him expectantly.

He knew very well that today’s Mengmeng was nothing like the naïve little thing she used to be.

Her learning speed was frightening, you could even say she’d surpassed every genius in the world.

In terms of cleverness, she was definitely already terrifyingly good, to the point that even Qiaoqiao couldn’t compare.

Otherwise, Qiaoqiao wouldn’t be the one getting smacked every time; Mengmeng had never been hit once.

After dinner, the two little ones continued down their road of chasing that chicken dinner.

They kept muttering that there was no way they wouldn’t get at least one win today.

Lin Xi ignored them and grilled a few pork legs, beef legs, and lamb legs for the giant bear.

The poor thing had gone hungry these few days and looked thinner.

Clearly Mengmeng and Qiaoqiao hadn’t been taking care of it at all these days.

As for the Ginseng King, it didn’t need special care.

It just burrowed into the soil and cultivated on its own.

Once he was done with all that, he went to the yard and did a few sets of Xuanyuan Fist, all the way until nine-thirty.

"Hmm?"

"Bai Bing still isn’t back?"

Lin Xi frowned a little. Was overtime really going this late?

You had to remember, she was the CEO.

And the company had long since gotten on the right track—there were hardly any situations where she needed to work that late.

On top of that, Bai Bing had King of Soldiers–level strength, and all her security guards were at special forces level.

They might be older, but their strength was still very solid.

Back inside, Lin Xi didn’t bother the two little ones who were in the middle of an intense game and asked about Bai Bing’s recent schedule.

Roughly, he was asking what time Bai Bing had been coming home these days.

This time the two little ones didn’t ignore him, since this was about Bai Bing.

"The last few days were normal, she came back around six like usual."

"But the last two days, she’s been getting home later and later."

"We heard Mom say there were some changes in the company, so there was a lot going on!"

"I asked Sister Bai too, and she said it wasn’t a big deal, she’d have it handled in a few days!"

"..."

Hearing that, Lin Xi felt a bit more at ease.

Even so, he still sent Bai Bing a text.

But Bai Bing didn’t reply.

He didn’t think too much of it—normally she rarely replied to his messages anyway.

By about ten-thirty, there was still no sign of Bai Bing.

Lin Xi couldn’t help but knit his brows. What kind of job could keep her this busy?

So he called her, only to find the call couldn’t get through.

"What’s going on?" He froze for a moment.
