Chapter 1113: Chapter 1113: Qi Qi, Something’s Off About You

She does these things while Shi Yunshen drives leisurely ahead, watching her through the rearview mirror.

After a long while, he suddenly speaks: "Qi Qi."

"Hmm?" The young girl responds without lifting her head.

Shi Yunshen is somewhat concerned: "I went away for quite a while this time. Did anything happen to you?"

Yun Qiqi looks inexplicably at him: "No, everything’s fine."

What could possibly happen to her?

Shi Yunshen stares at her through the rearview mirror for a long time, then after a moment of silence, he asks: "Last time you said you were going back to the laboratory, did you?"

"Yes."

Seeing her nod, the man has a peculiar expression in his eyes as if probing, as if doubting.

After a long while, his gaze still occasionally checks her through the rearview mirror.

As if confirming something.

His gaze is indeed hard to ignore, especially for Yun Qiqi, who is sensitive to stares. She can’t help but lift her head, frowning unhappily: "Why are you looking at me all the time?"

Shi Yunshen doesn’t respond, but a few minutes later, he suddenly pulls the car over to the roadside.

"I think..." His eyes fix on the young girl in the rearview mirror, frowning for a while before slowly speaking, "You seem a bit off."

Yun Qiqi is taken aback, her small face slightly bewildered: "What?"

Shi Yunshen straightforwardly turns his head, examining her from top to bottom, finally speaking in a deep voice with a complex and strange expression:

"Your magnetic field, and your state, are both very unusual."

No one in the world understands Yun Qiqi better than Shi Yunshen.

They grew up together, and they are of the same kind.

They both have very special constitutions and special abilities, transformed by that laboratory, existing as anomalies in this world.

Special Ability Users have extremely heightened sensitivity to the surrounding aura, magnetic fields, and air, with senses several times sharper than ordinary people, especially facing the equally special ability user and their familiar Yun Qiqi.

From the first glance he took at her, Shi Yunshen felt something was off.

His gaze locks onto the familiar small face, asking: "Did anything happen when you went back to the laboratory?"

Yun Qiqi seems somewhat puzzled by his seriousness, tilting her head to think carefully.

"No."

She frowns slightly at him, "Could it be you’re overthinking?" 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Shi Yunshen looks for a long time but doesn’t see anything.

He withdraws his gaze, saying softly, "Maybe I really am overthinking."

The car resumes its journey, he drives for quite a while, then curiously asks her as if casually chatting:

"By the way, isn’t today Friday? Why aren’t you at work? Did Yan Yan kindly let you off?"

Upon hearing Yan Yan’s name, Yun Qiqi unconsciously furrows her brows.

As if displeased with the topic, she responds coldly: "I just didn’t feel like going."

Shi Yunshen watches her but doesn’t ask further.

However, his hand slightly tightens on the steering wheel.

Shi Yunshen takes her to a restaurant, a very famous Chinese restaurant in the Imperial City. He even ordered the dishes and booked a private room in advance.

By the time Yun Qiqi arrives, the food is ready to eat.

Before starting, she suddenly remembers: "By the way, Shi Yunshen, didn’t you say you would introduce me to someone? Where is she?"

Shi Yunshen snaps back to reality, his gaze flashing as he replies: "Oh, her, something suddenly came up, so she couldn’t come. We’ll meet another time."

"Alright then."

The young girl pouts slightly but doesn’t mind as she lowers her head to start eating.
