Xiu Ling returned to her room, took out the small ebony box from her pocket, took a deep breath, and opened the box carefully.

The light filled the box little by little with his movements, and a budding daffodil slowly appeared in front of him.

After fresh-keeping treatment, the flowers are white and crystal clear, fragrant and fragrant.

Xiu Ling's heart pounded hard in his chest twice, he shook his hands and peeled off the petals, and there was a silver ring quietly lying in the tender yellow stamens.

An ordinary plain ring, old in style, without any pattern, looks a bit shabby in such an exquisite box.

However, Xiu Ling took it out like a baby, gestured with her fingers, and unconsciously revealed a brilliant smile.He lowered his head, branded a kiss on the ring, and then carefully put the ring on his finger, with a serious expression and a pious expression.

The ring seemed to be tailor-made for him, neither loose nor tight, embedded on his white finger? It was shining brightly.

Xiu Ling looked at it over and over for a long time, then lay on the bed, put the finger with the ring on the corner of her lips quietly, and fell asleep peacefully.

The next day he got up early, first walked to the door of his elder brother's room, hesitated for a long time, and knocked on the door tentatively.

The door rang twice, and suddenly it opened from the inside. Xun Sheng stood at the door with Xun Yi in his arms, with a calm expression, and whispered, "What's the matter?"

"..." Xiu Ling was straightforward? He asked, "Is my brother awake?"

"Still sleeping." Xun Sheng's eyes dimmed, he walked out of the room with Xun Yi in his arms, closed the door lightly, and said, "Let him sleep for a while...can you lend me the kitchen? "

Probably because Xun Sheng left a bad impression on Xiu's family, Xiu Ling suddenly couldn't help being startled when he heard such a polite question from him.

He picked out his ears: "What?"

"Borrow the kitchen." After Xun Sheng finished speaking, he didn't seem to want to wait for Xiu Ling to answer, and strode downstairs.

Xiu Ling followed behind him, deeply feeling that what she began to hear was hallucinations. This Xun had no intention of discussing with him at all, and was still the same as before, arrogant and domineering, doing his own way.

Xun Sheng put down his son, found the kitchen without any mistakes, and closed the door with a loud sound.Half an hour later, he came out with a serious face, looked down at the time, pulled off one side of his coat, and said to Xiu Ling: "I will wake you up at 08:30, brother. He is not in good health during this time." ...not very good, I often feel sick after waking up, I made some light rice porridge, and you? Persuade him to drink some after waking up. I have already prepared breakfast. In the kitchen, you and Xiaoyi can go first Have a meal."

"If you have time, go out for a walk with him. The time is controlled within four to 10 minutes. Don't make him too tired. He will take a nap at noon, about an hour or so, you decide? Alarm clock, remember to wake him up. It will be sunny this afternoon, you and Xiaoyi can go out with him, I will let Lu Qin protect you. "

"Xiaoyi—" Xun Sheng waved to his son.

Knowing that his father was going out, Xun Yi ran over with the unicorn in his arms, kissed Xun Sheng on the cheek, and said obediently as usual: "Father, come back earlier."

"Yeah." Xun Sheng patted his head: "You? You're an alpha. When your father is away, you? You have to learn to protect your father, you know?"

"Understood." Xun Yi murmured softly, "You? You've said it many times."

Xun Sheng seemed to laugh, bent down and kissed the top of his son's hair, fastened the buttons very neatly, and walked out.

Xun Yi watched eagerly as he boarded the aircraft, and when the aircraft flew away, he stood up holding Zaogui in his arms, touched his belly, and said, "Uncle, let's go eat."

Xiu Ling was still in a daze, feeling that he was getting more and more unable to understand Xun Sheng.But this is not surprising. This is how the upper class of the empire evaluates Xun Sheng. The mansion is so deep that even some old politicians who have been in office for many years sometimes cannot figure out what Xun Sheng wants to do.

"Uncle?" Xun Yi commanded the unicorn to grab Xiu Ling's trouser leg and drag it into the kitchen, making a pitiful look: "I'm hungry."

Xiu Ling felt pulled by a very small force, and suddenly came back to his senses.

"Okay. Go, go eat." He shook his head and led Xun Yi to the dining room.

08:30 He went to his brother's room on time. Xiucheng had woken up for a while, leaning against the head of the bed, and was learning the language of the Paduo galaxy following the online course.

He raised his head when he heard the sound, saw that it was his younger brother, lowered his head and quickly memorized a few words, and then closed the terminal.

"Brother, porridge is simmering in the kitchen, why don't you go downstairs and have a drink?"

Xiu Cheng stood up, without avoiding suspicion, he took off his pajamas in front of his younger brother naturally, took out a set of casual clothes and put them on.

He is about four months pregnant. Except for a little bulging abdomen, his limbs are still thin and thin, probably because he has been in poor health. Xiucheng's skin is unhealthy pale. When he bends slightly, the two butterfly bones are very prominent. .

There is a trace of red on the top of the butterfly bone close to the neck.Xiuling and Gu Yin had been together for many days, of course he knew what that smearing marks meant, he turned his eyes away and pretended not to see it, and scolded Xun Sheng bloody in his heart.

With Xun Yi, he could make such a mark, but without Xun Yi, he might not know how to do it? To what extent—it’s not as good as a beast.

Xiu Ling gritted his teeth.

Xiu Cheng was indifferent. He went downstairs to serve the porridge, barely drank half a bowl, and commented: "This porridge looks like it was made by the Xun family's aunt."

Xun Yi lay next to him reading the mecha book, and pulled his head out of the pile of books when he heard the words, without saying a word: "This is what my father boiled!"

Xiu Ling: "..."

Xiu Cheng put down the spoon slowly, and tapped his fingers on the top of his son's head: "Read your book."

"Oh." The child responded and ran away with the book in his arms.The unicorn followed behind him, jumped up, and got into his arms.

It's only been one day, and one man and one beast are already together? Jiao Meng is inseparable.Xun Yi was lying on the carpet reading a book, squatting on the other side of the book when he returned early, and very cleverly used his paws to help Xun Yi turn the pages of the book.

Xiucheng stayed at the third star for five days, probably with his younger brother whom he loved since he was a child. He was in a pretty good mood, and would sometimes? Occasionally? Make a joke.Even though the jokes are all bad, but there is a little sycophant like Xun Yi who keeps cheering by his side, and the life is lively and lively.

Of course, the premise is to ignore the four wooden bodyguards around him, as well as Lu Qin's immobile and cold face.

Xiu Cheng didn't have time to go back. In addition to the two boxes of third-star specialties that Xiu Ling packed for him, he also bought two boxes of ancient books from a second-hand bookseller.

Xiu Ling felt that most of the reason why he was in a good mood was because he bought these books that he had hated for a long time.

Xiu Cheng's life in Xun's house was very monotonous. Every day after waking up, he would go to the study to read, and he would read for a whole day. Sometimes he would have lunch in the study.Therefore, although he has already left his scientific research position, his studies have not lagged behind, and he publishes several papers every year.

He does not write papers to evaluate titles, nor to earn manuscript fees, but purely to kill time?Once, the editor-in-chief of a core journal in the empire contacted him and invited him to be a special editor-in-chief. He only reviewed academic papers and did not need to sit on duty. He also politely declined.

It's not that he doesn't want to, but that the baby in his stomach will be born in a few months, so he has more than enough understanding but not enough strength.

Xiu Ling sent her brother to the flight center, and watched him bend down to get on the spaceship, tears fell down for some reason.

He waved his hand vigorously, Xiu Cheng saw it, pressed his face against the window, and smiled softly at him.

"Brother..." Xiu Ling put one hand on his heart and prayed silently: "I hope you can be happy every day."

As soon as Xiu Cheng left, the Gu residence became deserted again.Xiuling is fine, but early return is the most uncomfortable. It has been carried around by Xun Yi for the past few days. Because of its rarity, it has stole the limelight. No matter where it goes, people will come to touch it. Its hair is simply beautiful.

But the pinnacle of life is short-lived after all, Zao Gui secretly felt sad for a while, and grabbed Xiu Ling's trousers, begging to be stroked.

Xiu Ling: "..." The book said that unicorns are very expensive and arrogant, and not very close to people. This one he raised is just the opposite. It is clingy and likes to join in the fun. It is probably an unusual breed among unicorns. .

Xiu Ling hugged it on her lap, stroked its fur, and opened the terminal to search for news about Nanshengxing as usual.

Some time ago, he spent money to open the interstellar network, and bought the authorization of the portal websites of the Empire and Nansheng Star, so that he could keep an eye on the dynamics of the two countries at any time.

Nanshengxing has not been peaceful recently. The civil war has been going on for more than a month. Three days ago, the network suddenly went down, and Xiu Ling no longer knew what was going on there.

Searches on the websites of other countries are full of stereotyped chatter, poor timeliness and little reference value.Some media even broke the news of the civil war in Nansheng Star yesterday belatedly.

Nanshengxing is located in a remote area, and has been closed to the outside world for a long time. The domestic situation has always been a mystery.Many interstellar situation analysis experts mentioned that Nan Shengxing shook his head again and again, with an expression that he really didn't know what to say.

In the past three days, whenever he had time, he tried to log in to Nanshengxing's national network, but the interface kept showing "loading". When he sent a message to Gu Yin, the other party took a long time to reply, and the sentence was short. Obviously, he had no time to separate himself .

Xiuling waited for 10 minutes, but the webpage was still dark, and his heart became more and more anxious.

It was fine when Xiu Cheng was around, and he could divert his attention, but now he was left alone, unable to control his wild thoughts at all.

He didn't know what role Gu Yin played in this war, whether he would go to the battlefield in person, whether there was any danger, whether he could come back as soon as he promised himself.

After wandering around the room in a panic, he couldn't help but send a message to Gu Yin.

Because he was afraid that Gu Yin would be distracted, recently he has seldom video chatted with Gu Yin, at most he just sent a series of texts, the content is also very ordinary, telling him to take care of his body and so on.

Gu Yin replied briefly every time, but the final signature never changed.

--"I love you babe."

Xiuling called up the call records, flipped through the dialog box page by page, the corners of her mouth raised a little bit, but her eyelashes drooped slowly, fluttering up and down, trying to drive away the mist in her eyes.

The days seemed to be calm and empty all of a sudden, he was exercising, reading, feeding early, going to bed as usual...

In the early morning, Xiuling woke up suddenly. He subconsciously raised his wrist and glanced at the communicator, but there was still no movement on Gu Yin's side.

The author has something to say:

To make a digression, the world of Xueba is really not something ordinary people like me can understand.The last time I met a top student, after chatting for a few minutes, he suddenly invited me to do a quiz with him, saying that their research group has a quiz contest every day, and the usual way of entertainment is to do quizzes.So I turned on my phone and let him see my entertainment methods - Bilibili, Jinjiang, NetEase Cloud, Onmyoji...

He was shocked: I thought you usually like to read books, Proust, Tovtoevsky, Higashino Keigo, and Li Yu, Mei Yaochen, "Poetry", "Sao" and so on (said a lot , I forgot anyway).

I:……

I think I may have gone to a fake school.
