Chapter 63



"Of course I'm not afraid." Helian Lan would try to visit her whenever he had time, and housekeeper Meng would also send her daily necessities whenever possible. As time went by, Zhu Jin got along with her more and more naturally. "Was I afraid of him before? And did he often tease me before?"

"You were afraid of him before, but he was naughty and loved to tease you." Helian Lan laughed when he heard her answer, touched her head, held her hand and sighed, "All of a sudden you've both grown up so much, Chonglou and you grew up together, he carried you everywhere when you could only crawl, he was only five or six years old at that time but he was taller than other children and stronger. Lao Zhong wouldn't let him carry you, so he secretly carried you out to play on the grass, he thought we didn't know, but in fact we all knew and were following us, only he didn't know."

"He has been nice to you since he was young, but he was just naughty and always made you cry. Then, as you grew up, you had many courses to study all day long, so he loved to tease you and let you play. By the time you were twelve, he had already been called a medical genius. At the age of seventeen or eighteen, he was impulsive, and seeing that you ignored him, he came to you in a rage and performed surgery on a humanoid robot to deliberately scare you. You didn't know it was a humanoid robot, and you were so scared that you cried." Helian Lan smiled and talked about her childhood with great interest.

"Later, you were so scared that you ran out of the room. You fell down the stairs without paying attention and cut your hands and stomach. He was also scared and wanted to help you treat the wound, but you refused. Later, Lao Zhong came and beat him up. You were so scared that you got sick and had nightmares for several months. After that, you were afraid of seeing blood or watching surgical scenes, and you were afraid to run away when you saw him. Lao Zhong was so ashamed that he sent him directly to the Interstellar Criminal Base to be a doctor."

"The Interstellar Criminal Base is a planet that is used to detain prisoners sentenced to life imprisonment. It's no joke. How can a teenager like him stay there? I tried to persuade Lao Zhong, but Lao Zhong said that Chong Lou's temper was too erratic and it was a good opportunity for him to train. He went to the base when he was 18 and only came back two years ago. I don't know how much he went through in the base. His medical skills have improved, but his temper has also become more erratic. Lao Zhong always says that he is cynical."

"However, his medical skills, especially surgery, are all-round. If you want to become a doctor in the future, you will definitely need their help. This time, Chonglou told you that he can perform the surgery, which means he must be confident. You don't have to think too much about it. Let him do it if necessary. Anyway, if something really happens, you will bear the main responsibility. When you accept Chonglou's help, Lao Zhong will feel more comfortable." Helian Lan said this with a sigh in her tone. In fact, she had joked with Lao Zhong to let Lian Nan and Chonglou be together. After all, their genes are quite compatible.

But later, because Nan Nan was really afraid of Chonglou, this joke was never mentioned again.

"After Chonglou came back, your reaction to him was much more normal, but you were still a little afraid of him, so he didn't tease you as much as before." Helian Lan looked at Zhu Jin, "I didn't expect that after losing your memory, you were not afraid of Chonglou anymore.

"… So there is such a thing. No wonder he spoke strangely before! He even had the nerve to call me a coward." Zhu Jin laughed after hearing this. So Zhu Jin was afraid that the culprit of the surgery scene was Chonglou! She could imagine Chonglou's proud and evil look when he performed surgery on the simulated man that was basically the same as a human. It must be more stimulating for a twelve-year-old good boy Lian Nan to watch such a bloody scene.

Chonglou's purpose of attracting people was achieved beyond expectation, but the result was that Lian Nan began to be afraid of him, and he was even driven out of Blue Star...

"Now that you are not afraid of him, get along with him. He suffered a lot before. After a year, Lao Zhong agreed to let him come back, but he never came back." In fact, Helian Lan still doesn't understand why Chonglou scared Nannan. What she told Zhu Jin was just her and Lao Zhong's guess. Chonglou kept his mouth shut about this matter. Of course, she didn't understand why Chonglou didn't come back. It didn't seem like Chonglou was angry. After he came back, his attitude towards her was still the same, and his attitude towards his daughter was still the same, but his daughter didn't pay much attention to him.

And he seemed to not care at all. Whatever happened, she still didn't understand the reason and didn't understand this kid Chonglou.

"Okay, I understand." Zhu Jin smiled after hearing what Helian Lan said.

Helian Lan felt relieved after hearing this. After visiting Zhu Jin and returning to the palace, he met Chonglou.

"Your Majesty." Chonglou has always been very polite to Helian Lan.

"Zhonglou, walk with me, let's talk." Helian Lan took Zhonglou for a walk, "I went to see Nannan today, she asked about you, and I told her everything."

“……” Chonglou’s body stiffened for a moment and then quickly returned to normal.

"So many years have passed, and you still haven't told me why you scared Nan Nan back then. Can you tell me today? I've been curious about this for years." Helian Lan asked with a smile, "When I talked to Nan Nan about it today, I even found a reason for you."

“…We were young and impulsive at that time!” Chonglou touched his nose, “She was busy all day and ignored me, so I wanted to scare her…” Unexpectedly, she was too scared.

"Is that the reason? It seems I guessed right." Helian Lan laughed out loud.

"That's not the case." Chonglou also laughed, his eyes pure, isn't it? Impulsive youth.

Growing up with a lovely little princess of noble status, he was very proud and happy in his heart. While his peers were still praising the little princess for being cute and sensible in the news and pictures, he could always be by her side and see a side of her that outsiders would never see. He could pull her braids and make her laugh and cry.

At the age of sixteen or seventeen, his body began to develop and his ignorant emotions gradually developed under the influence of his peers. Like all his peers, he chased after the school beauties, whistled at them, joined in the fun, wrote love letters, had girlfriends, and was envied and pursued by his classmates. He was extremely unrestrained.

All of this would disappear when facing the increasingly beautiful and ladylike Helian Nan. Not only did she not look at him with the shy and eager eyes of other girls, but she also had less and less time to play with him due to her heavy academic workload.

"Brother Chonglou, now that you are here, try the snacks I made. I will go and learn first. Remember to give me your feedback tomorrow..."

"Brother Chonglou, I'm really busy. I'll come play with you tomorrow."

"...I really don't have time today, I have to go with my mother to visit..."

He was angry and didn't go to see her for ten days... half a month... even a month. She never came to see him either. It was impossible for him to take her out to play secretly. In the end, for some reason, he used the bloody operation he was most proud of to attract her attention.

And then...the cowardly princess never called him brother again. She was sick, had a fever and was talking nonsense. She even cried in her dreams. When she recovered, the originally chubby little princess became thin. And then, because of the nightmares, she never gained weight again.

Those days became the clearest days in his memory and also the quietest time for him.

At that time, he actually didn't know why he was so crazy.

It was not until he was thrown into an interstellar base for serious criminals, until he grew up, and until he found a girlfriend and started a serious relationship, four or five years later, that he realized that he had actually liked the little princess at the beginning. It was a young and ignorant love that he didn't even realize, and he was ruined by the bloodiest method of attracting girls in history.

He thought that all first loves, even secret loves, were a hundred times better than his.

Ahem… After all, his method of attracting girls was even more childish than bullying the little girls he liked in kindergarten. He simply made the girls run away when they saw him. Moreover, it was only several years later that they realized what was happening, when he had already started to have real feelings…

He still can't explain why he didn't react at first because he felt guilty or was afraid and didn't dare to think about it, so it took such a long time for him to be able to face what happened rationally.

Seven years later, when he saw the grown-up Helian Nan again, he thought, oh, she has grown up to be just as he imagined.

And then, nothing else.

All that is past is past.

Chonglou looked at the queen's smiling face with incomparable innocence, "Hehe... Your Majesty, please don't laugh at me. Everyone has a dark history..."

"Okay, okay, I won't laugh at you..." Helian Lan stopped laughing, "Then why didn't you go back to Shuilan Star?"

"Because I want to prove to the people in the base that I am a genius!" Chonglou said without hesitation. The originally genius boy became a little kid in everyone's eyes after arriving at the base, and he would not accept that!

"Haha..." Helian Lan was amused by him again.

There was a cool breeze and the two of them were chatting and talking, feeling extremely comfortable.

The prison welcomed another person who was looking for Zhu Jin. This time, they were not patients or reporters, but staff from the Blue Water Planet History and Culture Research Center. They had applied formally and were allowed to meet in the reception room. They also brought brushes, calligraphy and paintings, and other items.

Fang Fang is a reporter. The moment she saw Zhu Jin's calligraphy, she knew its meaning. However, she was no longer a reporter and was in a special period of pregnancy, so she could not do much. She just saved every prescription of Zhu Jin.

Finally, she found an opportunity to ask Zhu Jin to write on the paper she had prepared for her collection, and she kept it after mounting it. But she couldn't keep it to herself, so she took a photo and shared it online. In an era when writing is considered a big deal even if you don't know how to write, and there are even programs that offer writing competitions, seeing Zhu Jin's calligraphy, it's natural to pay attention to it.

Then, the Center for Historical and Cultural Research made a discovery. After asking Fang Fang about the situation and finding out the few preserved ancient calligraphy and paintings and brushes and studying them, the Center for Historical and Cultural Research felt that they should consult Zhu Jin.

“…We heard from Miss Fang that Miss Zhu Jin said that this brush was used by our ancients. The fountain pen has been proven by alien countries to be developed from the goose feather pen. So is this the pen invented by our ancients?” The leader of the working group, Changshan, asked the question.

"Yes, this is the brush invented by our ancestors." Zhu Jin picked up the soft brush they placed in front of him. "Because it is made of bird, animal or human hair, it is called a brush. It is one of the four treasures of the study. According to the different hairs and the different degrees of hardness and softness, it can be divided into hard-hair, mixed-hair and soft-hair. We can choose different brushes according to our needs."
