Bi Qiao’an lay motionless in the icy snow, watching helplessly as the falling flakes slowly buried her. As her consciousness faded, her mind drifted back to the three arduous years she had spent ...
Chapter 619 Unreasonable Request
Chen Yanming smiled and said, "Wife, isn't it good for you to stick to me? You work so hard every day, let me help you share this sweet pain. Besides, isn't it enough for me to stick to you?"
Bi Qiaoan blushed and glared at him, saying, "Go away, you only know how to say nice things. Go away quickly and remember to come back early."
"Okay, I know!" Shen Yanming hugged his wife and left.
After he left, Bi Qiaoan entered the space.
There was nothing to do in the afternoon. Apart from resting, she also had to continue studying the seeds that had been transformed by spiritual energy.

In Su City, after watching the press conference, Yuan Ruoxi asked Tong Xianbao to call Li Sikai.
"Captain Li, when can I get the sun desensitizer injection?" Yuan Ruoxi asked as a matter of course, lying on the bed.
Li Sikai raised his lips and smiled slightly, "The alliance has its own arrangements for this. When it's time for your injection, someone will notify you."
Yuan Ruoxi was very dissatisfied with this answer. She threw her phone on the bed and asked, "Didn't Dean Xu say that special talents would be given priority for injections? I am a space-capable person, so I can't be considered a special talent?"
"You are quite special, but you cannot be considered a talent."
Yuan Ruoxi glared at him with her eyes wide open, ready to start scolding him, but Li Sikai explained, "We in Qinghua welcome people with special abilities, but the value of special abilities is far less than the contribution that experts and scholars who have mastered science and technology have made to all mankind.
If sunlight desensitizers are injected, the researchers will be the first to be injected, and then the elites from all walks of life who protect the personal and property safety of the people will be injected.
As for you, you can just barely make it to the third batch. Don’t be dissatisfied, compared to ordinary people who have no hope of success, this ranking is already quite high.”
Li Sikai did not hide anything and expressed his guess.
But Yuan Ruoxi was not convinced. She asked, "How is it possible that I, a person with spatial abilities, am not as good as the guards and police?"
A flash of contempt flashed across Li Sikai's eyes, but he still explained in a gentle tone: "You are very special and powerful, but your role is limited to this small world.
In comparison, people are more important. "
Yuan Ruoxi was speechless, but still argued: "But my space can accommodate many people. The materials I can move in one trip are equivalent to several trucks."
"Yes, you also said that it is to be used. Then, Ms. Yuan, how many days in a year is your space in working condition?" I'm afraid it's less than half. Whenever something goes wrong, the guard team has to clean up your mess.
"Also, space is not irreplaceable. At most, we can spend some time and effort, and we can always complete the work in the end. But the brains of those scientists, as well as the selfless dedication of the guards, police, and medical staff, are irreplaceable."
Seeing that she couldn't change Li Sikai's mind, Yuan Ruoxi changed the subject and said, "Well, I don't want to eat bitter rice and bitter noodles. Is it too much to replace it with old grains from previous years?"
Li Sikai smiled and nodded, and Yuan Ruoxi's eyes lit up.
Just as I was about to say that he was sensible, I heard him say, "It's true, but the guards have already put this year's summer grain into the warehouse and mixed it with the old grain from previous years. Now there is no rice or flour that is not bitter."
"How is that possible? Don't lie to me!" Yuan Ruoxi didn't believe it at all. She felt that Li Sikai was deliberately treating her harshly because he saw that she had a broken bone.
Li Sikai pointed at Tong Xianbao and Lu Nanfang and said, "You can ask them if our team members are eating the same bitter rice and noodles as everyone else every day?"
Yuan Ruoxi looked at the two of them, only to see them nod slightly.
Yuan Ruoxi was unhappy and said with a pursed mouth: "But I just can't stand hardship, and the food is too bad.
I already had a broken bone and needed to be replenished. If I don’t eat something good, how can I recover? Dean Xu said that as long as we don’t eat those withered grains, we won’t suffer…”
Li Sikai didn't want to listen to her crying and mumbling, so he interrupted her directly: "But when we were harvesting, we didn't know this news at all. The harvested grain was also stored in the warehouse as soon as possible. It has been mixed up and can't be distinguished.
Now, unless you have old food and cook it yourself, you can only eat this bitter meal."
Li Sikai grabbed Yuan Ruoxi's lifeline at once, and the girl stopped crying immediately, and said reluctantly: "I don't have any old food, if I wasn't so poor, how could the group of people in Su City discover my secret.
If they hadn't found me, I would still be out there enjoying myself."
Maybe the space has been filled up by wandering around in the wheat fields.
Li Sikai heard her mumbling, laughed sarcastically, and said, "If you were discovered by others, you might have been torn into pieces. Do you think everyone is like the Alliance, willing to protect your secrets and be so tolerant of you?"
Yuan Ruoxi was speechless and unwilling to admit that what Li Sikai said was true.
She also knows that she is not smart enough, but can you stop poking at her sore spots?
Seeing that he couldn't take out Yuan Ruoxi's stored food, Li Sikai said goodbye and left.
When he returned to the dormitory, Sun Sainan came forward and asked, "Boss, what's the matter with Yuan Ruoxi?"
"After watching the press conference, I want to be among the first to get sun desensitizers and eat meals that are not bitter."
Sun Sainan sneered: "She is dreaming in broad daylight. What contribution has she made to have the nerve to say such things!"
"Some people think they are superior to others just because they have a space, and they can't put themselves in the right position at all," said Geng Zhixing.
"Yes, although we are nominally protecting her, from another perspective, aren't we also monitoring and imprisoning her?"
Hearing this, Li Sikai's face became serious and he scolded: "Don't say this again in the future. You must always remember that our mission is to protect space ability users."
Well, it is to protect the space ability user, not to protect Yuan Ruoxi. There is a big difference between the two.
Sun Sainan knew that he had said something wrong, so he immediately stood up and shouted "Yes!", fearing that the captain would punish them by making them recite the regulations again.
Li Sikai didn't bother with them and waved his hand to ask them to sit down.
He sat back on the bed and thought about Yuan Ruoxi's request, which he found to be quite ridiculous.
It’s not that the escort team was without old grain, nor was it that they had really mixed it with new grain.
How could the research institute not notify the local guard teams immediately of what they discovered?
However, no one can throw away food that tastes bitter.
In order to eat the foods with bad taste first, they mixed half of the old grains into them to reduce the bitterness.
Although it doesn't taste good, as long as it can preserve the wheat and rice grains before the end of the world, it is good.
