Chapter 1022: Greeting Gift, Odlie (1)
The old madam didn’t think there was anything wrong with her demands.
A significant portion of evolved beings held an absolute sense of superiority over ordinary people.
They believed that having evolved genes made them the new human race, and that those who hadn’t evolved should be at their mercy.
To balance the relationship between evolved beings and ordinary people, the Intercontinental Research Institute had created combat machines specifically to counter evolved beings and prevent uprisings.
These machines used advanced technology to identify the weaknesses of evolved beings and detect their abilities, allowing them to adapt instantly for combat.
However, evolved beings were not something ordinary people could handle.
Marrying into the Shen family was a blessing for Si Fuqing, offering her more prestige than being a star in the entertainment industry.
Why wouldn’t she agree?
“These are my two conditions,” the old madam said, frowning at Ye Junci, “Did you hear me?”
“Old Madam, you might be overthinking it,” Ye Junci replied, not angered but rather amused, “My younger sister never intended to return to the Ye family, and Miss Si certainly has no interest in the Ye family. She won’t come.”
The old madam was taken aback and then shouted in fury, “What did you say?!”
If it weren’t for Ye Qianyu being killed by the Quinn family, their Ye family would be a leading family among those with a rating of B. How dare someone disdain the Ye family?!
The old madam was still fuming.
“As for Ye Junci, don’t worry, Old Madam,” Ye Yuzhen said with a smile, “She got lucky. The Quinn family was recently massacred by a Class-S evolved being. Without her enemies, she’s become arrogant.”
The massacre of several evolved beings in the Quinn family had spread, especially since it had alarmed Odlie. The major evolved families were all discussing what kind of terrifying person the Quinn family had provoked.
The old madam sneered, “She will be dealt with sooner or later. Without sedatives, she won’t survive!”
Every evolved being needed sedatives to prevent power outbursts, especially unstable ones like Ye Juczi. Without timely injections, the best-case scenario was a downgrade, the worst was death.
Ye Yuzhen would be happy to see either outcome.

At the set of “The Nation’s Heroine.”
Filming was progressing smoothly, with most scenes done in a single take.
Director Lu finally understood why Tang Haiqiu had said that working with Si Fuqing was a pleasure. In his many years as a director, he had never felt so at ease.
“Director Lu, the first concept trailer has been edited by the production team,” the assistant director said, “It can be released tomorrow.”
Director Lu nodded, “Good. We can take our time filming. It’s important to be meticulous and historically accurate.”
“Directors as dedicated as you are rare nowadays,” the assistant director sighed, “And actors as serious as Teacher Si are just as rare.”
