Let's see what kind of world he created

City F is more empty than City B. I don’t know if it’s because it’s relatively close to the central city, and most people run into the central city first. They were in no other danger.

Finding a foothold is also much easier than before.

Ning Chengyou and the others followed Zhang Bei, and saw a row of facade houses with low floors. The signboard above said "×× Bank". There are traces, but there are no corpses or anything, and you can barely get off.The people at Xu Chaosheng's side had already distributed food and were preparing to eat, leaving some for them.

In a hurry to rub the medicine on the child, Ning Chengyou sat down at a random place, put the child beside him, bowed his head and began to apply the medicine.

"It might hurt a bit, bear with it," Ning Chengyou said, "It will be fine soon."

Child: "Yeah."

He carefully smeared the medicine on the child's swollen ankle with a cotton swab, and his movements were very light, as if he was dealing with some fragile treasure, for fear of hurting the child if he was not careful.

Sentinel's skin was always sensitive, and a child's was even more delicate. Any scar on his body would look extraordinarily terrifying.

Ning Chengyou said to the child while painting: "In the future, if you encounter such a situation, don't think about running first. Your injury has not healed, and it will become more serious if you move like this. Nothing else is important, only you Your body is the most important thing, you know?"

The child lowered his eyes: "Yes."

"I know, you feel that your body has changed suddenly, and you are afraid that you will scare us or be regarded as a monster by us, so you jumped out in a panic," Ning Chengyou said, "But Chenchen, look at me now. , do you think I'm scared by you?"

The child looked at him and shook his head hesitantly.

Ning Chengyou: "No, right?"

Ning Chengyou: "I wasn't frightened by you, and I rushed out to bring you back, which proves that what you think is not necessarily the truth. The other brothers and sisters also didn't see you as a monster. Here, you are still Chenchen, it doesn't matter if you grow up or become smaller."

"So Chenchen," Ning Chengyou finished taking the medicine, hugged him to sit on his lap again, and said in a serious tone, "You have to trust us, trust me, okay?"

"I won't be scared so easily, and I won't treat you as a monster easily, and I won't doubt you just because you have a little secret of your own—who hasn't revealed your secret yet. What I'm worried about It's just your body. When you jumped out, my first reaction was that your ankle injury is still not healed, and you can't run that far, so I ran to chase you."

"The result still hurt you."

A trace of frustration appeared on Ning Chengyou's face, regretting that he took too long to react and failed to bring him back in time, but he quickly covered it up again.

"Chenchen, don't do this again next time, okay?"

"The next time you feel that something might change in yourself, just tell me and don't run away."

"Please try to trust me, okay?"

He took the child's hand and covered his heart, wanting the child to feel his heartbeat.Chenchen curled up his fingers, he could still feel his heart beating powerfully in his palm, his eyes flashed, and he said, "Okay."

After taking the medicine, Ning Chengyou still wanted to feed the child, but the child directly took the food from him and ate it by himself.Only then did he suddenly remember that the child was already a 17-year-old boy, and he didn't need to be treated like a young child.He can outnumber a hundred on the battlefield, and naturally he can feed himself.

No need to feed him.

Ning Chengyou withdrew his hand, watching the child eat naturally, he felt a sense of loss spontaneously.

However, after a short period of sadness, Ning Chengyou soon cheered up again. The child doesn't need him to feed to prove that the child's body is already in such a good state, he should be happy.Besides, besides feeding, he has other things to do. Don't forget that the child's feet are still injured and he can't walk. In the morning, I also helped the child change his clothes. These are the proofs that the child needs him.

Moreover, the child is more repulsive to other people's approach, but he will not repel him. He is willing to chat with him, tell him about himself, and is willing to be hugged and patted by him.This shows that his position in the child's heart is quite special. Even if he is not a relative, he can still be close to a good friend, right?

No one else has this kind of treatment.

Thinking of this, he was instantly relieved, and while looking at the child, he began to eat happily.

Seeing that he kept looking at the child, Cheng Yue said abruptly, "Captain, are you watching Chenchen eat?"

Ning Chengyou: "Huh?"

Cheng Yue pointed to his eyes: "You keep looking at him, isn't it for dinner?"

Ning Chengyou hooked the corners of his mouth: "The cute kid is really good at eating——"

The child's ears moved, and when they heard them talking about themselves, they raised their heads blankly.

"—But it varies from person to person," Ning Chengyou continued, "For example, I think that in Yan Jian's eyes, you are quite good at eating."

Cheng Yue subconsciously glanced at Yan Jian, who happened to be looking at him. The moment the two looked at each other, his own ears turned red, and he immediately turned his head: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Yan Jian moved to his side: "Look at you."

Cheng Yue covered half of his face, and said in a low voice, "I'm not good-looking at all, don't look at me."

"Okay." Yan Jian replied, but still stared at his profile.

Cheng Yue: "Why do you still..."

Before he finished speaking, Yan Jian said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, but I couldn't control myself, I just wanted to keep looking at you." He said he was sorry, but there was no trace of apology in his tone, and he still stared at you openly. The more you look at Cheng, the more vigorous you look.

Cheng Yue: "..."

Cheng Yue covered his eyes and said fiercely: "Don't watch it! Eat your food well!"

Yan Jian held his hand and said in a good temper, "Okay."

Ning Chengyou covered his eyes wearily, exaggerating: "Hiss... my teeth are so sore."

The child glanced at him: "Toothache?"

Ning Chengyou nodded.

The child pointed out his mistake: "But the place you covered is your eyes."

Ning Chengyou moved his hand to his mouth, then simply put it down, and explained to the child: "Chenchen, I'm just making an analogy."

The child's eyes widened slightly: "But you said you have a toothache... is it false?"

Ning Chengyou intends to explain to him what it means to be sour by other people's love scenes to the point of toothache, but he is defeated by the child's clear eyes once again: "Yes, it's fake."

"Oh." The child turned his head and continued to eat. After a while, Ning Chengyou heard him whisper, "I thought it was true."

Ning Chengyou felt his conscience ache.

"This is just an exaggerated description," Ning Chengyou said to him, holding the child by the shoulders, pointing at Cheng Yue and Yan Jian, "When you see someone showing you something you don't have, in your heart... no Comfortable, you can express it in this way.”

Children don't quite understand: "Why do you feel uncomfortable?"

Ning Chengyou froze for a moment: "Uh...envious?"

The child looked at Cheng Yue: "Do you envy them?"

Ning Chengyou: "..."

Ning Chengyou: "It's not envy... It's just, ah, I don't know how to explain this."

He touched his nose: "Anyway, you just need to know that I didn't deliberately lie to you."

The child nodded thoughtfully.

Ning Chengyou noticed that the child didn't seem to be interested in all kinds of emotional behaviors of ordinary human beings. He seemed to have lost the ability to perceive emotions, so that it was difficult to understand what he was doing, and sometimes he couldn't tell what a joke was. It is very serious, what it says is what it is, it will not lie, but it is easy to be fooled by others, even if Ning Chengyou said a word that hurts his tooth, he will believe it, and he will not notice anything wrong until someone tells him the truth .

"Chenchen," Ning Chengyou asked tentatively, "Do you have any friends at the base?"

The child shook his head: "No."

"We don't make friends," said the child, "because it's not necessary, it doesn't help us, it's a waste of time and energy."

"Not one? Since childhood?"

"No. I grew up on the base alone, with no friends."

His Chinese is slowly improving, but it's still not very good. Sometimes he speaks in confusion, and if he can't express it, he will use English instead. Fortunately, Ning Chengyou understands it. No matter what language he uses, both of them can understand each other. Can continue to communicate without hindrance.

After hearing what he said, Ning Chengyou thought, indeed, the reason why the child is so unreasonable and ignorant of the world should be because of this.

Since he was a child, he has no friends to communicate with and share, so how can he understand this?

Ning Chengyou patted him on the shoulder lightly, and said to him: "I didn't have any friends before, but you have them now."

The child tilted his head to look at him.

He stretched out his right hand and raised it in front of the child, recommending himself: "Chenchen, would you like to be my friend?"

Ning Chengyou knew a lot of people, but very few people could truly be called friends. Because of this status, many people wanted to make friends with him, but he adhered to the principle of being expensive and not expensive. He was very stuck, and he was lazy, too lazy to manage relationships, too lazy to deal with too many people, so until now, this was the first time he offered to make friends with people.

Of course, this is also a little selfish.From the first time he saw the child, he had a good impression of the child, and he liked this child very much. By being friends with the child, he can properly circle people into his own field, which is great.

The only thing to worry about now is whether the child will answer or not.

After not hearing an answer for a long time, Ning Chengyou's originally confident heart began to become uneasy.He thought, would the child not want to make friends with people?Or maybe the child doesn't quite understand what his friend means?

In fact, he already regarded the child as a friend, but he never said it clearly. He brought it up this time only because he heard the child say that he had never had any friends. He was worried that the child still regarded himself as a fellow traveler who met by chance, so he wanted to win one for himself. Just the exact name.

... So is the child willing to be his friend?If he doesn't want to, he will turn to ask the child's standard for making friends, and then work hard to meet the child's standard.

Just when Ning Chengyou was planning the direction of his next efforts, he suddenly felt the warmth of his palm, and when he looked down, a small white hand appeared in his palm.

He raised his head and heard the child's crisp voice:

"it is good."
