Endangered

Ruan Xiaozhu is off work, and she is in a bit of a complicated mood today. The two halves of her brain are bombarded with all kinds of information and are about to fight each other, and the information that bombards her is actually related to one person—Ning Jingxin.

After the garden tour yesterday, Meng Tianwei told Ruan Xiaozhu on the way to dinner together that Ning Jingxin treated the Ephticia star creature he was in charge of like a human being, which is very different from the traditional way of domesticating alien creatures .

"Brother Ning, he not only named that dog bastard, what is it called 'Freight', but also gave that dog bastard clothes to wear." Meng Tianwei babbled as he walked, "And ah, Brother Ning doesn't stare like other teachers. Looking at the experimental equipment, trying to figure out something, he likes to stay in the zoo all day and chat with that dog thing - he has imported Evetician into his helmet language system - and he doesn't know how to talk to a foreigner What is there to talk about about star creatures?"

"Name? Clothes? Chat?" Ruan Xiaozhu became more and more shocked when she heard it. No wonder Ning Jingxin told her to persuade Teacher Huang to wear clothes for the Eveticia creature they were in charge of before leaving Huang Yuanlei's work area that day.

"Yes, weird, right? I've never heard of any researcher in the Biological Garden doing this." Meng Tianwei continued, "Brother Ning, he also played games with that dog, playing games! Playing live tennis every day, and wanting to play with me, I don’t want it! The most frightening thing is that that dog thing made a piano a few days ago—hey, I didn’t expect the beast to play This thing - it's really annoying to pull it in the garden every day. You can say Brother Ning, he is really good and smart. But why does he feel that he is not motivated. What is he doing all day long? ah."

Ruan Xiaozhu was stunned when she heard that, and she asked: "Then Senior Brother Ning has been doing this all day long, where is your domestication progress?"

Meng Tianwei thought for a while and said: "There must be some closeness in the near future, I think it must be the domestication period now."

"So fast?!" Ruan Xiaozhu stopped in shock, "But didn't you say that he was doing some messy and unconventional things?"

"Yeah, I don't know either. But the parameters and biological behavior are correct, and the observation instruments can't lie..." Meng Tianwei was also puzzled, "Tell me, what's going on with Brother Ning ah?"

Ruan Xiaozhu's mind was in a turmoil when she heard it, and it's okay that Ning Jingxin's behavior made her unable to figure it out, but what Huang Yuanlei asked Ruan Xiaozhu to do the next day was even more puzzling to her.

"Xiaozhu, can you help me pay attention to how Ning Jingxin domesticated his Ephytician creature? I mean, his attitude and methods towards that Ephytician creature." Huang Yuanlei said in Ruan Xiaozhu Tell her before leaving get off work.

"Ah? Teacher Huang, why do you want me to pay attention to this?" Ruan Xiaozhu asked puzzled.She vaguely knew that Huang Yuanlei and Ning Jingxin seemed to be at odds. Huang Yuanlei cared about Ning Jingxin's progress. Was it out of a competitive mentality?

A hint of cunning flashed across Huang Yuanlei's face and then disappeared instantly. He said, "It's nothing, I just feel that he treats that Ephtisia creature very well, and I think his domestication method is very interesting. Anyway, just help me pay attention. This is not Difficult to do, right?"

"Hmm..." Ruan Xiaozhu vaguely agreed.

"Oh, what's the matter!" Ruan Xiaozhu walked out of the gate of the biological garden and sighed, turning his head and saw Ning Jingxin who was waiting for the autopilot speed car.

Well, it's really "Cao Cao Cao Cao will be there".

"Brother!" Ruan Xiaozhu shouted and walked towards Ning Jingxin.

Ning Jingxin, who had taken off his work clothes, was wearing a loose white woolen sweater and a pair of slim-fit jeans that lined his two long legs very nicely. His dyed golden-brown hair shone brightly under the artificial light.

He turned his head when he heard the sound, and the earring of his left ear flicked: "Xiaozhu? Are you off work?"

Ning Jingxin, a male goblin, smiled so beautifully that Ruan Xiaozhu's heart skipped a beat.

"Well, I just got off work." Ruan Xiaozhu's ears were already hot, "Where are you going, brother? Isn't this the route you want to take when you get home?"

"Yeah, are you going home?" Ning Jingxin smiled, "Today is my father's memorial day, so I'll go to the Rest Garden to see him."

The Dormition Garden is the place where the bones and stones of the dead are now stored.The so-called bone stones are the products of the ashes of the dead after further processing. In this society that requires frequent interstellar migration, bone stones do not take up space, are easy to store and move, and are not easily damaged.

Ruan Xiaozhu felt that he had asked about Ning Jingxin's sadness, so he whispered guiltily: "Brother, I'm sorry..."

"There's nothing to be sorry about, it's not a normal thing in human society." Ning Jingxin said teasingly, "By the way, how do you know if this is the line I'm going to take home? Could it be that you follow me every day?"

"No, brother, don't talk nonsense." Ruan Xiaozhu defended with a red face, and the girl's heart was pounding like a deer.

Ning Jingxin laughed a lot: "Hahaha I'm just joking, Junior Sister, don't be nervous."

After Ning Jingxin finished laughing, Ruan Xiaozhu asked with a blushing face, "Brother, do you mind if I go with you? I have always admired your father, and I also want to pay homage to him."

"Sure, my father might be so happy to have such a beautiful girl come to visit him." Ning Jingxin readily agreed.

Arriving at the Resting Garden, after Ning Jingxin visited the system to input relevant information, he was guided by the robot to Ning Haowan's bones storage area.

Different from the solemn and solemn style of ordinary bone and stone storage areas, Ning Haowan's bone and stone storage area is covered with various colorful posters, and there is also music that is not solemn at all, which are all Ning Haowan's favorites during his lifetime.

Because Ning Jingxin wanted his father, who was suffering during his life, to be happier after his death.

"...Imagine mean and you, Ido

I think about you day and night, it's only right

To think about the girl you love and hold her right

So happy together

If Should call you up, investadime

Andyousayyoubelongtomeanddeasemymind

Imagine how the world could be, sovery fine

So happy together..."

Ning Jingxin hummed along with the music, approached the small box where the bone stone was placed, and said softly, "Dad, I've come to see you, how are you doing over there? I'm doing fine, I work hard every day, Like you used to. I'm taking care of an Epheticsian now, he looks like us, he's smart, I think it's fun to be with him..."

Ning Jingxin babbled for a while, then took a deep breath: "Dad, let's talk about this today, and I'll see you next time. Let's go." He touched his lips with his fingers, and then touched his bones. stone box.

Ruan Xiaozhu quietly watched Ning Jingxin complete his worship, and then walked towards him with a relaxed smile.

Ning Jingxin said: "Let's go, we're done chatting with the old man, we should go back - or do you want to say something to my old man? I promise, with a beautiful girl like you chatting with him, the old man will definitely want to Laughed so hard I danced in the box."

I don't know if he was afraid of seeing Ning Haowan's bones dancing in the box or if he really had nothing to say, Ruan Xiaozhu waved his hands repeatedly and refused: "No, no, let's go."

Ning Jingxin laughed and turned to look at the box: "Dad, did you see that you are still not charming enough."

Walking outside the Rest Garden, Ruan Xiaozhu asked Ning Jingxin who was waiting for the bus: "Brother, are you going home?"

"Well, what else?"

"Is there anything you want to go home? I mean, if you don't have anything to rush home, should we go and have a meal or something?"

Ning Jingxin smiled and said, "As brothers and sisters and friends, it's no problem to eat together."

He emphasized the words "senior brothers, sisters and friends" very heavily, and Ruan Xiaozhu immediately understood what he meant.

Ruan Xiaozhu knew that he was still not accepted by Ning Jingxin.

It was nothing at first, at most it was just persistent efforts, but on this day, the word "Ning Jingxin" spun in her mind countless times, which made her upset, and all kinds of memories of being rejected by Ning Jingxin began to flash again. , She couldn't hold back her emotions all of a sudden.

She was wronged and asked angrily: "Brother, why? Don't you know that I like you? I have told you many times, I like you!"

Ning Jingxin just smiled, and said friendly and comforting: "Xiaozhu, I have told you many times, you are a wonderful girl, smart and beautiful, but I really don't like you like a lover It is very good for us to maintain this normal colleague relationship. You should give your heart to the person who suits you. "

"But why? What's wrong with me? I like you so much, why don't you like me?" Ruan Xiaozhu asked with tears.

Ning Jingxin said patiently: "Xiaozhu, you are a very good girl, but if you like this kind of thing, it doesn't mean that if you like me, I will definitely like you. You are a well-educated girl. You understand the logic."

"I don't understand, I just don't understand! Like or not has nothing to do with logic!" Ruan Xiaozhu was about to cry, "Or, you already have someone you like? You like Senior Sister Shen Yin, right? You guys have gone so far close!"

The more Ruan Xiaozhu said, the angrier she became. The scenes of Shen Yin and Ning Jingxin getting close to each other when she was at school and after work made her go crazy with jealousy.

Ning Jingxin suddenly became serious, and he said: "Xiaozhu, I respect senior sister very much, and I only have brotherhood and friendship with senior sister. If you speculate on the relationship between me and senior sister like this, it is not good for me, senior sister, or you. So don't say this kind of thing in the future. I will not thank you for liking me for so many years, because I have never forced you to do this, and I have rejected you many times. I just want to say to you-and I hope this is This is the last time I say to you, please give your precious heart to others, we will just be ordinary friends and colleagues from now on."

Ruan Xiaozhu looked at Ning Jingxin angrily with tears in his eyes, got on the flying car and left without looking back.

Ning Jingxin shrugged, instead of following, he chose to wait for the next train.

Although he did a great job, he understands that for some things, if there is no future, don't give any hope. After all, no one can afford the ambiguous consequences.

Besides, he seems to have someone he likes now, but he still needs some time to confirm it.

The author has something to say: The song that Ning Jingxin sang in the article is "Happytogether" by TheTurtles. I like it very much. I think it fits Ning Jingxin's memories and feelings for her father. I recommend it~ In addition, in the next chapter we The Flyhite cubs are coming back =w=
