Alien in captivity

--9--

They didn't delve into the past, Chen Yuanxing asked Eden about other things: "Is your food only human?"

Eden said: "Of course not, I can eat as long as it is not poisonous."

Chen Yuanxing had an idea in his mind, after thinking about it, he still asked, "How much money do you have with you now, can you lend me?"

Eden probably guessed what Chen Yuanxing wanted to do: "You can use my credit card directly."

It was natural for things to go smoothly. Eden's boldness made him feel that his depression was swept away, and even his physical discomfort seemed to be reduced a lot. He made a further request: "I still need a house."

"I have one to my name, but it's in the suburbs," Eden said.

Chen Yuanxing's eyes lit up: "That would be the best!"

He paused suddenly and asked Eden, "Can you accept the expansion?"

"which place?"

"I want a basement."

Eden said, "Is it okay to have a basement and an underground garage?"

Chen Yuanxing grabbed it by the shoulder, looked at it straight, and finally kissed it heavily on the face, his face couldn't hide his joy: "Of course."

After resting for a few days, Chen Yuanxing started to run for the doomsday in a month. During the period, it was stipulated that he could only do it once a week, which made Eden very dissatisfied, and Chen Yuanxing had to coax him for a long time.

Eden has to start working these days after taking a break. The company’s affairs have piled up in the past few days. The excuse of being psychologically traumatized after being kidnapped is no longer useful. If he doesn’t go to work, his father will come to arrest him. .

Chen Yuanxing was naturally happy to hear it, but the price was that Eden couldn't get out of bed the day before he went to work.

It has been ten days since he traveled from the future back to the modern age. With the help of Eden, the plan is progressing smoothly. He didn't put much effort into daily necessities, and these are relatively convenient to obtain. The uncommon functional items on the market can only be Online ordering, such as night vision goggles, emergency supplies, etc., has also stepped up on medicines, and recorded the locations of major nearby pharmaceutical factories in case of emergency.

The protection of the villas in the suburbs has also been strengthened. Guardrails have been installed on the walls, many solar photovoltaic modules have been added, and several wells have been drilled deliberately. In the future, water and power cuts are inevitable. He tried his best to make long-term preparations.

After everything was arranged properly, when the project was completed, Chen Yuanxing relaxed and went to pick up Zeng Lu, intending to take him to the hospital for follow-up consultation. After explaining the reason, Zeng Xiurong did not refuse. She looked at Chen Yuanxing with a moving expression in her eyes: "How do I feel? After that day You have changed a lot."

Chen Yuanxing was wearing Zeng Lu's clothes, when he heard Zeng Xiurong's words, he paused: "What's wrong?"

Zeng Xiurong quickly waved his hand: "It's okay, it's just that I feel more stable."

Chen Yuanxing smiled: "Isn't that a good thing?"

"Yes... yes..." Zeng Xiurong felt his nose a little sore: "Lulu will trouble you, I will transfer the money to you later."

"No need..." Chen Yuanxing said, "I won't accept it if you transfer it to me. Just keep it and buy some delicious food for Lulu."

Before Zeng Xiurong could reply, Chen Yuanxing walked out with Zeng Lu in his arms: "I'm going first, I'll send Lulu back to you in a few days, and you should also take a good rest."

Zeng Xiurong responded again and again, followed him downstairs, and met Eden who was waiting for Chen Yuanxing outside.

She was taken aback, and she didn't forget the look that Eden stared at her that day.

She grabbed Chen Yuanxing: "This... is this your boyfriend?"

That last word was a little hard to say.

Obviously, she has never seen Chen Yuanxing have such an orientation before. She has also seen Chen Yuanxing have a girlfriend. Among other things, this boyfriend is really scary.

Chen Yuanxing was inexplicably embarrassed, but when he saw Zeng Xiurong's flinching, he immediately thought that the last time we met, he might have given Zeng Xiurong a bad impression.

He called Eden, pulled people to bend down and apologized: "Last time it was anxious to find me, and I was in a bad mood, just scold it if there is any offense."

Eden was very cooperative. After Chen Yuanxing finished speaking, he took out the condolences he had bought in advance and respected her.

Zeng Xiurong was a little flattered, and Yiden's image suddenly changed in his heart. Seeing that it was obedient to Chen Yuanxing, he thought Chen Yuanxing was forced, but now it seems that she was thinking about it.

Chen Yuanxing took Zeng Lu to bid farewell to Zeng Xiurong, and went to the reserved hospital. He needed to have a clearer understanding of Zeng Lu's illness so that he could prepare for treatment.

Eden was busy with work, so he took him to the hospital and left. Chen Yuanxing stayed in the hospital with Zeng Lu all afternoon.

Zeng Lu's autism, which is manifested in social difficulties, communication difficulties, and stubborn or narrow interests, is basically consistent with what he knows.

He also took this opportunity to get a rough understanding of the treatment methods. Fortunately, Zeng Lu's condition is relatively stable, and he has no depression or other adverse conditions for the time being. He does not need to take medicine, but the treatment process requires a long time to accompany him.

Chen Yuanxing had the bottom line in his heart, knowing that this kind of illness should not be rushed, so he took Zeng Lu home.

In addition to understanding the illness, he also needs to let Zeng Lu get acquainted with him. After this afternoon, Zeng Lu has become obviously a little anxious. He began to struggle and cry non-stop. Although he was mentally prepared, But it was like a magic sound filling his ears, and it didn't take long for him to start to have a headache.

Zeng Lu was out of breath from crying, his face was flushed, and he occasionally uttered vague words. Chen Yuanxing could barely hear that he was calling for his mother.

The cry awakened the memory of abandoning Zeng Lu back then, guilt and pain welled up in his heart again, his throat was clogged with a ball of negative emotions, making him speechless and breathing became difficult.

Chen Yuanxing held Zeng Lu's favorite building blocks, but he didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only sit beside him, wiping Zeng Lu's tears at a loss.

He couldn't get too close, Zeng Lu's resistance was stronger than imagined, and finally tossed and tossed until night, Zeng Lu fell asleep when he was tired from crying, and Chen Yuanxing was physically and mentally exhausted beside him.

He carried Zeng Lu to the prepared room, cleaned up the mess in the living room, lay down on the sofa exhausted, closed his eyes and sighed.

He probably anticipated the current situation, and explained the situation to Eden in advance, but the reality was much more difficult than imagined.

After Eden returned home, he was greeted by a dark living room. When he turned on the light, he saw Chen Yuanxing, who was curled up on the sofa and fell asleep.

He was awakened by the bright light, squinting his eyes and sitting up with his head pressed, feeling his temples pulsating. Eden walked towards him while taking off his coat: "Why are you sleeping here?"

Chen Yuanxing waited for Eden to sit down beside him, hugged it, pushed it down on the sofa, put his head against its chest, closed his eyes, his face was full of fatigue, and showed weakness for the first time: "I feel a little tired , let me hold you for a while."

Eden quickly hugged him and changed into a comfortable position. Guessing that it might be about Zeng Lu, it didn't ask any questions.

The next few days were exactly the same, Zeng Lu showed no signs of softening, woke up every day and found that he hadn’t returned to a familiar place, so he began to cry to vent his dissatisfaction until his throat was hoarse and he couldn’t make a sound, and he refused to accept this strange place. environment of.

Chen Yuanxing tried his best to divert his attention, and prepared all kinds of toys to guide him, but Zeng Lu didn't give him a look.

In the end, he began to doubt whether his current behavior was correct. The ashtray on the balcony was full of cigarette butts. Every day when Eden came back, he could see Zeng Lu who was tired from crying and fell asleep, and Chen Yuanxing who was getting more and more decadent on the sofa.

Chen Yuanxing always asked for a hug after it came back, from the beginning of silence, to the end asking it what to do.

It felt that the hands around its waist were very strong, and Chen Yuanxing pressed against its chest tightly, telling about today's situation, and occasionally felt its chest become moist.

It is also consulting experts in this field, and every day it will bring a lot of new toys and consulted information to provide advice to Chen Yuanxing, but Zeng Lu's mood is too unstable now, and it must let Chen Yuanxing let go for a while.

It held Chen Yuanxing's face and saw that his eyes were still glistening with tears, his complexion was extremely bad, and he had stubble.

"You have to send Zeng Lu back first." Eden wiped the wet marks from the corners of his eyes with his hands.

"But..." Chen Yuanxing hesitated: "If he doesn't get to know me well now, what will happen in half a month?"

"Are you doubting my strength? Believe me, I will protect you well." Eden said.

"But..." Chen Yuanxing was restless. He thought that he was in a dangerous situation all the time in the previous life, and that fear and helplessness could never be shaken off.

Eden coaxed him: "Have you forgotten what you have prepared? Shelter, food, weapons, nothing is missing. You are not the person you were in the previous life. You have the preparations to protect Zeng Lu, not to mention I, now I have to let him return to Sister Zeng to stabilize him, we still have time, you can ask Sister Zeng to move here, so that it will be convenient for you to contact him, I will prepare everything."

Chen Yuanxing was moved by his words.

The next day they took Zeng Lu back to City B. Zeng Lu's red and swollen eyes and hoarse voice were really difficult to explain. He could hardly lift his head in front of Zeng Xiurong and kept apologizing.

Zeng Xiurong took over Zeng Lu, and instead of blaming him, he called his son a heartless bastard.

Chen Yuanxing hung his head and was speechless, feeling ashamed of his guilt and apology.

In the end, Eden explained the situation.

They used the pretext of getting married soon and invited her to the city where they were located. They had already arranged a residence, and they had the right to let her take a vacation.

Zeng Xiurong was still shocked by the fact that they were going to get married, Chen Yuanxing was afraid that she would disagree, so he immediately cheered up and talked about it.

She looked dumbfounded at Chen Yuanxing who was afraid that she would reject her. Although she felt that it would be too much trouble for them to go to the wedding and arrange a vacation, she still agreed under his expectant gaze. over them.

They took Zeng Xiurong back and made arrangements.

Chen Yuanxing's suppressed emotions relaxed slightly, and the incident also got back on track from the corner.
