Chapter 14: Peace of mind
I don't know that in a short period of time, the person on the other side has already put the question of his going or staying in his heart, and Charlene has a short term in her head when she hears such a question from the priest.
This guy's meaning shouldn't be the one you understand, right? The corners of her mouth twitched secretly, and Charlene felt that she must have thought too much.
On the one hand, he laughed at himself and did not pretend to be amorous, but on the other hand, the smile on Charlene's face became more and more sweet. "Brother Chu Ci is now my guardian, and Brother Chu Dian and others have been working hard to help me make up for my classes recently, so that I can catch up with my learning progress as soon as possible."
As for whether you can catch up, what is the benefit of catching up, and what to do if you can't catch up, Charlene didn't say, and the priest didn't ask. She only needs him to know that she is valued in the Chu family and is doing well, which is enough.
After all, they're just some familiar strangers, aren't they?
I don't know if I saw Charlene's alienation, the two chatted a few words lightly, and the priest thought about it, exchanged the communication numbers of the two, and then hurriedly said goodbye and turned to leave.
He will go back to Panyu City next, and by the way, find out the news of the man who is said to be too much different from his age now.
The descendants of their step family, why can't they be left behind? Moreover, it is said that her aunt's ability genes were still very good, and the husband she chose should not be bad.
The descendants of the two of them must be qualified to become a member of the Bu family, or even a more powerful force.
Even if he didn't, he would take that person back to the family, give him a better environment and conditions, and never let the other person suffer outside.
Charlene looked at the back of the priest who left in a hurry for a moment, then she didn't know what she thought, chuckled, withdrew her gaze, and turned around and walked to the dormitory with her book in her arms.
Although she had already learned from Bai Qiang about the origin and even the family of the original owner's mother, Charlene did not mean to recognize the Bu family.
At least, she didn't have this plan until Chu Ci drove her away or had a clear plan to "return" her to the Bu family. Therefore, in the face of the priest, although she has a somewhat complicated mood, she still wants to keep her distance.
After all, cousin or something...... In this era, it seems to be a very ** relationship.
During this time, I don't know if it was because life suddenly calmed down overnight, and the steady campus life made Xia Lin's heart seem to be at peace, or if it was really under Bai Qiang's antidote and Chu Dian's teaching, she was originally as rootless as duckweed, and her manic and restless heart actually magically settled down.
Without those inexplicable irritability and lingering uneasiness, the deeply hidden but unsolvable helplessness in Charlene's heart gradually faded.
Although she is not extremely smart, she is not stupid, and looking back at her journey from awakening to the present, she can't help but be half happy, half emotional.
Fortunately, although not all the things of the people she met were good, at least most of them still had good thoughts and even helped her.
sighed that although she had encountered ** annoyance several times, she only passed by. In fact, whether it was the Yu family, Panyu City, or even the small city she thought was safe, if it weren't for Chu Ci, she might not have ended up well.
It's just that at that time, her nerves were too tight, and she was blinded by the joy of her new life and the sense of accomplishment of successfully escaping from marriage, coupled with the storage of the medicine, which catalyzed the impetuous feelings in her heart, so where can she see this?
It's not even just that she can't see it, she's almost to the point where there is no one in her eyes, right? Thinking of her attitude towards Chu Ci, Xia Lin couldn't help but smile bitterly. is also a shame that the other party treats her as a child, and even feels guilty for using her twice. Otherwise, she would have been in danger long ago.
After all, the other party is a major general of the Federation, a decisive figure, not a philanthropist who repays grievances with virtue.
It is precisely because she has figured these things out that she willingly stays in Mingyang Academy, and she is willing and even hungry to learn the knowledge of this world...... willingly rescued Chu Ci.
Even at the risk that she is very likely to be remembered by the Chu family.
She is not a very bright or kind person, judging the situation and seeking support, it is originally human instinct, and it is the dependence that she can survive safely.
And since Chu Ci took the initiative to take on the role of her "guardian", Xia Lin had no reason to refuse this backer sent to the door. Moreover, if there was no Chu family, she wouldn't even think about a place like Mingyang Academy.
Although she was helpless to study with a group of children who were so much younger than herself, she had to say that she was able to learn the knowledge of this world from scratch, and she was really loved by God.
If there really is a heaven in this world.
And......
Reaching out and gently pressing the dantian part of his abdomen, Xia Lin had a strange look on her face.
The round guy in her body, which was already the size of a pigeon's egg, didn't even check out any traces of Bai Qiang, which only she could see.
Although she didn't know what was going on, she couldn't help but muttered in her heart at the thought that as her abilities became stronger and stronger, the creature that filled her with uneasiness like a time bomb would grow bigger and bigger.
This thing won't really break into a baby in the end, will it?
Thinking that there would be an extra baby in her belly, even the legendary "Yuan Baby" could not stop the strange feeling in Charlene's heart.
After all, although she was not a strict atheist, she clearly did not really believe in God. As for Xiuzhen, it is a kind of existence that only exists in novels.
If she could, Charlene really wanted to stop cultivating, even if her abilities stopped, she would always have a way to increase her strength. After all, she is no longer the weak person who carries a huge secret but has no self-protection ability except space.
And in this era, there are no zombies that are invincible to her and can only be avoided as much as possible, those alien beasts and plants, as long as she is not afraid of being injured, even if she only relies on her strong spiritual power and the weapons of this world, she will always have a way.
But that's not the point, at least not at this point.
The top priority at the moment is for her to truly integrate into this world as much as possible, and then she can truly live in peace and comfort somewhere in this world that is at least free of endless strife and scheming after leaving the Chu family in the future.
As for Chu Ci, within the scope of her ability, she is a person who knows how to repay her kindness, and she believes that the other party will also be. If not, then she can only find a way to enjoy the shade with her back against the tree.
Anyway, the Chu family has a big business, so it shouldn't be a big problem to bless her, a rice worm that is actually very easy to raise, right?
Pursing her lips, Charlene had a smile on her face with anticipation for the future, very shallow, but it was the most real and warm one since Charlene was reborn.
There are no zombies, no endless darkness and despair, and even no precariousness, the fatigue of running around day and night, this world, the sun is warm, and life is ...... After all, it can be peaceful and beautiful.
Chu Ci had already woken up the day after Xia Lin and Qi Tianze left.
When he heard that it was Charlene who saved him, Chu Ci was stunned for a moment, and then smiled meaninglessly.
Everyone couldn't understand the complicated expression on Chu Ci's face, but they more or less guessed that it was related to Charlene, so they looked at each other with a somewhat strange expression.
Chu Ci had intended to wait for Xia Lin to become an adult and bring her and Du Qinglin together, but I don't know how it spread among you. Although Du Qinglin, who is like a lump of wood, and Xia Lin, who has been studying hard in Mingyang Academy, are not very clear, and Du Qinglin is only vague and has some guesses, but for Chu Ci, who has always said the same, it is already a sure thing.
But now that it looks like this, it seems that it may not be......
I heard that Chu Ci woke up, not only Bai Qiang and the others, but Chu Dian and Xu Shuoyang, who had been studying something recently, broke in together.
"Who attacked you?" Pushing open the door of the room, Chu Dian didn't even glance at the other people in the room, and rushed directly to Chu Ci, asking with a solemn expression.
Chu Ci raised his eyes, his face was still a little pale, but at this time, he did not have the weakness and fragility he had at the beginning, but instead seemed more calm and introverted.
Chu Ci advanced this time, not only his ability has become stronger, but his whole person's momentum seems to have changed slightly.
"Big brother." Chu Ci frowned slightly, and looked at Chu Dian with some displeasure.
“?”
"Big brother, why are you here?"
I don't know if it's the sequelae of being frightened recently, Chu Dian's rare face didn't have the just right gentle smile that was once popular, but a violent face. "Nonsense, your life is hanging by a thread, where will labor and management go if they don't come here?"
"Big brother, my labor and management are the same as your labor and management." Chu Ci was stunned at first when he heard this, as if he didn't expect his eldest brother to learn to speak like this.
Seeing Chu Ci looking at Chu Dian with a smile on his face, Chu Dian: ...... Sao Nian, is it time to dwell on this?
"Less nonsense, I'm not interested in hearing you dig a pit here and prepare to bury people, I'm your own big brother, how many flowers and intestines do you have in your kid's stomach, my eldest brother I know much more than you."
This kid was brought up by him personally, and even in recent years, Chu Dian and Ren Chu Ci are in different teams, and the understanding between the two has not decreased.
But he didn't have the leisure to listen to Chu Ci here at this time, he just wanted to know the real answer in the simplest and most direct way.
Chu Ci stared at Chu Dian with burning eyes for a long time, and finally helplessly flashed his eyes and sighed silently, "Big brother, I don't know." ”
"Don't know?!" Chudian's ecology has suddenly improved a lot. "You don't even know who attacked you?!" R1152
