After awakening the evil god, it was marked

Behind Qi Li'an was his right-hand assistant. When Yan Zhijin was still at the Imperial Institute of Biology, he often saw him, but Qi Li'an didn't think highly of him at that time.

Not far away are Benjamin and his assistants. The injuries on Benjamin's face have long since healed. It may be that his forehead hit the floor too much before, and his brows and eyes became more hostile. There is an indescribable weirdness.As soon as he saw Yan Zhijin and Yan Jin, his face immediately became ugly. He sneered, put his hands on his chest, raised his chin high, and condescended to look at them through his nostrils.

Yan Zhijin nodded to Qi Li'an calmly: "Hello."

That's how you say hello.

Having not seen each other for so many months, Qi Li'an seems to have forgotten how he left the conference hall in a panic, and greeted Yan Zhijin politely and relaxedly: "I didn't expect to meet you here. If I knew you were going to come here, I must contact you sooner."

Yan Zhijin didn't even give him out of the corner of his eye, and got into the car straight away. As soon as he sat on the seat, he looked out the window, with an indifferent look of keeping strangers away.

The smile on Qi Li'an's face was slightly stiff.

Yan Hui sneered, followed Yan Zhijin into the car, and in front of Qi Li'an, slammed the car door with a "slap", blocking Qi Li'an from the outside.

The hair on Qi Li'an's forehead was blown up slightly by the wind when the car door was closed, and then fell down again.

Behind the dark window glass, the intimate posture of the two people can be vaguely seen.

Ordinary people sitting in the back seat would keep a safe distance of more than ten centimeters from the people next to them, but between Yan Zhijin and Yan Hui, this distance seemed to never exist.

They sat side by side, Yan Zhen raised one arm, from behind Yan Zhijin's shoulder, went around to the window, and was helping him adjust the car window.

This posture, from Qi Li'an's perspective, looks like Yan Zhi has his arms around Yan Zhijin's shoulders, and Yan Zhijin is leaning quietly against him.

Yan Zhijin's knee tilted in Yan Hui's direction, touching Yan Hui's knee.He seemed to be making this trusting gesture unconsciously, and there was no rejection of overly intimate gestures in his eyes.

There was still no expression on his face, but the curvature of the corners of his eyes was soft, and there was a sense of relaxation unique to facing a familiar person.

A cloud hung over Qi Li'an's eyebrows.

Shen Zhiyu suddenly exclaimed, got into the car, and yelled: "How long have we been late? If we don't hurry up, we won't be able to make it to dinner. Mr. Qi, we have a heavy shooting task, and we don't have time to catch up with you, so we're leaving first. "

He urged Edward in a low voice: "Hurry up, drive, let's go!"

Edward frantically started the minivan.

With a polite smile on his face, Qi Li'an said goodbye to them gentlemanly, and walked back to Benjamin.

"Why are you walking so fast?" Hu Peng was still confused.

"Not much, it's too hot to stand down there." Shen Zhiyu rolled his eyes, and poked his head into the camera in his hand, "What did you capture?"

"It's nothing, take a group photo." Hu Peng flipped through the photos happily, "It's not common to take a group photo with an international rising star in biology."

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt that the atmosphere in the car seemed to be a bit heavy. He shrank his neck, peeked around, and asked in a low voice, "What did I say wrong?"

There was a transparent barrier between Yan Zhijin and Yan Hui and the others, as if they were in another plane.

Shen Zhiyu sighed, glared at him resentfully, and asked, "Do you think your observation ability is qualified for the position of director?"

Hu Peng:? ? ?

Zhang Shuorang laughed a few times, winked at him, and asked, "Don't you think that the most famous young biologists in the world should know each other?"

Hu Peng said confusedly: "Ah? That's right... I think Mr. Qi and Mr. Yan are quite familiar, right? Weren't they former classmates and colleagues?"

Zhang Shuo continued to inspire him: "But don't you think the communication between them is too cold?"

"I think Teacher Qi is very enthusiastic." Hu Peng said in a low voice, "Professor Yan... Isn't Professor Yan not usually talkative?"

Zhang Shuo laughed and patted his thigh.

Hu Peng looked puzzled: "What's going on? You are all riddlers?"

Shen Zhiyu covered her face, squeezed out a few words from between her teeth: "No wonder you don't make movies with people as the main characters..."

Zhang Shuo finished laughing and wiped away tears: "They..."

"We don't have a good relationship in private." Yan Zhijin's cold voice came from not far away.

Shen Zhiyu swallowed, turned around and pressed his forehead against the window glass to ease his pain.

Hu Peng's jaw almost dropped from shock: "Are there so many intrigues in the academic world? I thought everyone was friends."

Zhang Shuo smiled and said, "Qi Li'an chased after her before..."

"Our academic ideas don't agree." Yan Zhijin abruptly interrupted Zhang Shuo's words, and said word by word, "He advocates taking human beings as the starting point for everything. As long as research is beneficial to human beings, no matter what impact it will have on other creatures, Both are acceptable. But I think that other creatures should be respected, we have great differences, and we cannot study together.”

Hu Peng was confused, and finally could only nod frequently: "I understand."

After Yan Zhijin finished speaking, he casually looked out the window again.

Zhang Shuo lightly finished what he said just now: "Qi Li'an chased Xiaoyan before, but Xiaoyan didn't mean that much to him, and Qi Lian kept pestering him. Xiaoyan couldn't bear it anymore, and the two of them broke up completely..."

"Shut up." Yan Zhijin said coldly.

Zhang Shuo quickly finished the next sentence: "But you also know that it is Qi Li'an who wants to chase after Xiaoyan, so even if Xiaoyan speaks coldly to him, he still feels that he is a stalker and will succeed one day. The result is what you see .”

After Hu Peng listened, his facial features wrinkled together, and he wished for a big question mark to appear on his head.

His gaze moved between Yan Zhijin and Yan Hui, and he timidly asked, "This...is this a plot of a youth love idol drama? Or a love triangle?"

The temperature on Yan Zhijin's face dropped again, as cold as an iceberg that hasn't melted for years.

"What is it?" Shen Zhiyu patted the back of Hu Peng's head and said, "I said that I don't want to contact him, but I still come up to get close and want to set up an affectionate persona? As long as he is normal and measured, everyone can communicate peacefully. exchange of knowledge."

Hu Peng clutched the back of his head and wailed: "Yes, yes. I didn't say it wasn't so! I just asked!"

"Don't ask, think about how to shoot your documentary!"

Although Yan Zhijin didn't want to get entangled with Qi Li'an at all, he could see that there were several cars following them not far or near.

Edward's explanation was that Qi Li'an came to country A for an academic exchange, and he and Benjamin happened to come to this national park for field hunting these days.

In order to receive these guests from other countries, Edward and other staff also learned foreign languages ​​suddenly.

As for meeting Yan Zhijin and the others, it was purely a coincidence.

There is always a small tail behind the rear of the car, and anyone will feel uncomfortable.

Shen Zhiyu fanned the wind with his hands irritably: "It's so annoying, why do they have to go in the same line as us, is there only one way here?"

Edward smiled bitterly: "There is no fixed route, so they are free to go wherever they want."

He said guiltily: "I'm sorry, if we knew it would cause trouble to you, we would definitely stagger the reception time."

"I don't blame you either. There is no other way now, should we change our plan?" Shen Zhiyu murmured.

Hu Peng waved his hands again and again: "How can there be so much time, our schedule is already full."

"There is no way to collect materials properly now."

"According to the plan." Yan Zhijin's clear voice tapped lightly on the eardrums, "Just do what you have to do."

Shen Zhiyu showed embarrassment: "But...they always follow..."

The corner of Yan Zhijin's mouth curved into a cold arc: "What can he do?"

He said coldly: "If he is willing to follow, he will follow. What he is wasting is his time."

Shen Zhiyu thought about it for a while, and happily reached a consensus with him: "Then let's do it! Since you don't care, brother, I don't care."

Yan Hui whispered, "Actually, you don't want to see them, I can make them 'lost'."

"It's no use."

"But I saw that he was upset." Yan Hui said, "He pesters you."

Yan Zhijin raised his eyelids, and there was a hint of a smile in his eyes: "He's not worth your while."

***

The desert looks barren, but it is actually rich in species.

Yan Zhijin stopped the car and led a large group of people to watch a colorful snake.

He saw another group of people getting off the car not far away and walking towards them. He remained indifferent and introduced the snake meticulously: "This is a coral snake. Judging from the region, it may be a small western coral snake, which belongs to the cobra family, Coral Snake. Don't go near it, it's not weak."

"The color is so beautiful, no wonder it's called a coral snake." Shen Zhiyu looked at the snake enviously, "It's really beautiful!"

"The coral snakes are all so beautiful." Yan Zhijin smiled faintly, "The more beautiful one might be the blue long glandular coral snake."

The snake was about [-] centimeters long, slender and had red, black and yellow rings on its body.Few snakes can have so many bright colors at the same time.

Shen Zhiyu said regretfully: "It would be great if it wasn't a poisonous snake. I really want to touch it. Wow, we haven't encountered a non-venomous snake on this journey. The anaconda is not poisonous, but it is too big."

With a thought in Yan Zhijin's mind, he glanced at Yan Hui from the corner of his eye.

In fact, he also wanted to touch it.

Yan Hui seemed to have received his hint, and asked, "Do you want me to grab it and touch it for you?"

Yan Zhijin pretended to be having a psychological struggle amidst the contradiction, then nodded reservedly.

Yan Hui smiled, walked straight to the snake, and pinched the head of the coral snake quickly and precisely.

The little coral snake wrapped around his wrist softly, with big cute eyes open.

It found that Yan Zhijin was approaching, so it just spat out words and did not make any other aggressive moves.

Yan Zhijin tapped its small head with his fingertips. It seemed to be very interested in this slender and flexible "snake".

The coral snake is smaller than the snakes that Yan Zhijin usually comes into contact with, and every movement he makes has a natural sense of cuteness.

There was a gentle smile in Yan Zhijin's eyes.

so cute.

"Are you crazy? Just grab the poisonous snake with your hands?" Qi Li'an stepped forward quickly, grabbed Yan Zhijin's wrist, pulled him aside, glared at Yan Hui, and reprimanded, "What do you want to do? Harm people with snakes ?”

Yan Zhijin looked at his hand holding his wrist with displeasure.

He suddenly had the urge to let a snake bite someone.
