The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast

Shen Cang saw his agitation and, remaining calm, said, ”The place was discovered by them. Before that, can you be sure it’s a case?”

Mo Haihao was taken aback.

Shen Cang said lightly, ”Now we’ve captured a ghost that resembles a human beast, but that still doesn’t prove that place is conducting the same experiments. Further investigation is needed. If, in the end, it’s determined as a case, the ownership of that case might not be ours alone.”

”Why not? We were the ones who discovered it first!”

”Well, what of it?”

”Boss! You can’t let someone snatch away the case we’ve halfway investigated. If we find something in the end, whose credit will it be?”

”Credit?” Shen Cang shook his head, ”You need some rest.”

”I...”

Shen Cang looked at him deeply, scrutinizing, ”Why are you eager for credit? Do you have plans? Write me a report after your vacation.”

Mo Haihao stood frozen in place for a long time.

Little Taotie gently pulled him, bringing him back to his senses.

He looked up, took a deep breath, and said to Shen Cang, ”Boss, Xiangxiang hasn’t had a good appetite these two days. I think she might be pregnant.”

”Hmm?” Shen Cang raised an eyebrow, ”Go on.”

”In the past, I only focused on completing tasks, never considering credit. Now, I seem impatient to achieve, with thoughts only of credit, because I want a promotion, to be in a safer position, without always having to go out on missions. I have reservations, and... I’m scared to death.”

He lowered his head deeply, not daring to meet Shen Cang’s gaze, fearing to see disdain in Shen Cang’s eyes.

”Raise your head.”

Hearing this, Mo Haihao slowly lifted his head, meeting Shen Cang’s compassionate eyes.

Such an expression rarely appeared in the boss’s eyes.

Occasionally seen, it was inadvertently revealed when the boss looked at Little Taotie.

But at this moment, those eyes were looking at him.

Mo Haihao felt a bit overwhelmed, not knowing where to place his hands, nervously touching the hem of his clothes.

”No need to be nervous.” Shen Cang’s voice softened, ”The person you saw today was my colleague back then. The choices he made might just be your future choices. You can use it as a reference; it’s also a good path.”

Shen Cang spoke of the past.

Back then, the young men of the Special Department are now all part of the older generation. But the elderly men seen in the Ancient Castle are scarce and few.

Some got into accidents during missions, some retired due to age, and others, like that elderly man, chose a different path.

After marrying, the elderly man remained in the Special Department. His wife, a registrar policewoman, became anxious and sleepless after learning about her husband’s other identity. Later, no matter how much she ate, she couldn’t gain weight. Her weight once dropped to 70 pounds, and at a height of 168 centimeters, that was very thin, with sunken cheeks and prominent cheekbones, looking utterly frail.

Oddly, such a frail person became pregnant. This child came unexpectedly, without any preparation, almost miscarrying. The doctor said her health was poor, and it would be difficult to keep the pregnancy.

Upon knowing his wife worried about him, the elderly man made other plans. Not long after, he took his wife abroad for training, later cultivating talent for the nation while abroad, only returning recently.

Even after returning, he only worked behind the scenes in talent development.
