Chapter 59 Chapter 59 Successfully brought back the research results, that...
No one knew where Chang Ruijia took the two people like walking a dog.
When Chang Ruijia appeared in front of everyone again, the two people had already disappeared. Seeing the smile on Chang Ruijia's face again, no one dared to ask about the fate of the two people.
Anyway, just pretend it never happened, but no one dared to go up and offend Chang Ruijia.
The sudden crisis at the market was like a minor incident in ordinary life. After a busy day, when I woke up in the morning light, my life hadn't changed much. The usual short commute to work, the usual pre-arranged exchange of goods, the usual crowds coming and going.
If there must be something different, when Chang Ruijia looked at the group of people in front of her who were rushing to exchange items, it should be their completely different attitude towards her.
Perhaps it was because Chang Ruijia's image of supporting everyone at the market was too deeply ingrained in people's minds. Ever since the crisis was resolved, she could feel the respectful and fearful gazes cast upon her every time she walked through the market.
Occasionally, when Chang Ruijia was setting up a stall, she would even see one or two familiar-looking people coming up to her shyly.
Before she could speak, he immediately stood up, bowed and apologized, then quickly said, "I'm sorry, I was impolite before," and then ran away.
After this happened more and more times, Chang Ruijia touched her chin and looked at the backs of these people, thinking in her heart: It seems that she has gone astray?
She originally wanted to stand out among this group of people. She didn't ask for closeness with them anyway. She just wanted them to keep a distance from her, neither too close nor too far away, and to be in awe and timid.
But now it seems that although I have awe, how come I have inexplicably turned into trying to get close to her?
And not only these ordinary people in the settlement and trading areas, but even the four managers who had little interaction with her before began to have a close relationship with her.
In addition to Zhang Rui, whom she used to meet often, and Shi Fang, who was very familiar with her, Chang Ruijia suddenly discovered that Yu Jianyi, whom she had only met twice but had always been indifferent to her, now began to smile and greet her when they occasionally met on the street.
It was a terrifying scene of the sky falling and the earth collapsing!
No matter what Chang Ruijia thought about this kind of close attitude, after she rushed back from afar to stop Lu Baian from crossing mountains and seas, the first moment she saw this scene, she felt that it was the end of the world.
In fact, Lu Baian's absence was neither long nor short. I don't know if it was the sudden incident at the market that stimulated him. They originally estimated that the exploration time might last for half a month, but the news of his return came after just over a week.
This scared everyone else in the group chat, and they quickly put down their work and gathered again at the usual private meeting place.
In fact, Lu Baian had not sent back any news during this period. In order to update the information in sync with other people in the market, he had maintained the habit of updating the progress every day since he left.
However, the progress of this kind of thing was not very fast. At the beginning, there were still a few people in the group chat who were patient and curious to check all his progress for the day, but later they all got busy with their own things, and no one wanted to read the diary-like elementary school student's diary.
Lu Baian wouldn't abandon them anyway; he'd know everything by the time he came back. Chang Ruijia would occasionally extract important information from it, and she gradually became more and more certain that getting away from the floating object and entering the water must have a lot to do with the area of the floating object.
"It seems that the matter has been answered."
Chang Ruijia stretched lazily, left the market trading area, and slowly rowed towards the place they had agreed on.
Fast or slow, the answer is already there, and it won't change because of their past speed, so why be so anxious?
What's more, this may be a rare piece of good news for others, but for people like her who have a huge initial base of floating objects, it is not certain whether it is a good thing.
By the time she slowly arrived at the gathering place, the other people had already gathered together and were talking excitedly. It looked like they were discussing something intensely.
However, following Chang Ruijia's line of sight, she could only count four floating objects gathered together, and did not see Lu Baian's dusty figure among them.
Could it be that Lu Baian hadn't returned yet and had just sent out the gathering information in advance? Was he so impatient that he wanted everyone to know immediately?
However, after carefully distinguishing the floating objects, Chang Ruijia discovered that there were two figures that could not be ignored standing on one of the floating objects.
…
"I didn't expect that I actually figured out the rules. Are you sure there won't be any problems?" When Lu Baian just threw down his floating object and came over, Yu Jianyi actually wanted to refuse.
Faced with this new situation that had just emerged, he had no way of believing any "sweet words" that might be detrimental to him unless he personally figured out all the circumstances.
But then again, in this case, how can you draw all the conclusions without trying it yourself? Moreover, if this incident doesn't happen to him, it will happen to others. Yu Jianyi doesn't really want to agree to use anyone around him to conduct this experiment.
So after careful consideration, Yu Jianyi decided to trust the character of the person he chose.
Even so, before Chang Ruijia slowly arrived, Lu Baian still ran in the sea for more than ten minutes. After various cautious attempts, he was allowed to board Yu Jianyi's floating object.
"Ah~ha~" Looking at Lu Baian who finally boarded Yu Jianyi's floating object after a difficult attempt, the Shifang people who were forced to stand by and not move at all finally couldn't help but yawn.
"Brother Yu, there should be no problem this time, right?" Seeing Yu Jianyi ready to kick Lu Baian off the floating object, Shi Fang asked tentatively.
Yu Jianyi also knew that he was very suspicious. If it weren't for the people around him who knew about his problem and didn't care, no one would be willing to let him try again.
But he was not discouraged. Sometimes it is better to be safe than sorry.
"Okay," Yu Jianyi nodded, resisting the urge to kick Lu Baian off and patting his wet shoulder. "I'm sorry, Xiao Lu, for keeping you in the sea for so long."
"It's okay," Lu Baian waved his hand indifferently.
He knew about Brother Yu's situation. If he didn't agree with this caution, he wouldn't have included Brother Yu in the management group in the first place. So he was actually mentally prepared for this matter a long time ago.
After all, words are not enough to prove the truth; the truth always needs a real example. But if he rashly climbed onto someone else's floating object, I'm afraid Brother Yu would be even more worried. It would be better to let him experience it for himself.
"Besides, it's been a while since I last swam," Lu Baian joked as he saw Yu Jianyi's serious expression. "If it weren't for the time requirement for getting off the floating objects every day, I'd be so eager to swim back straight away once I had the ability."
"Yeah," Yu Jianyi patted Lu Baian's shoulder gratefully. He was not the kind of person who would take this kind of guilt seriously. He would only have more recognition of Lu Baian in the future.
However, recalling the results of his brief experiment, Yu Jianyi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said with some emotion, "It seems there is always a way out. The saying that humans are social animals is true no matter what. Our previous idea now seems more feasible."
Seeing that the atmosphere between Lu Baian and Yu Jianyi had returned to normal, Shi Fang, who was standing by, finally couldn't help but interject, "Those are the things you guys worry about. All I'm thinking about now is that my life as a single woman has finally turned around!"
"So you don't have any serious thoughts in your mind, and you think about these things every day?" Zhang Rui rolled his eyes and said helplessly to Shifang who often made stupid mistakes from time to time.
I don’t know where the minds of these two people in front of me have gone. Maybe the road after the market has undergone some earth-shaking changes, but this guy is only thinking about his single life!
"Of course I don't know that. This is just to lighten the mood." Shi Fang seemed to have gotten used to Zhang Rui's occasional criticism of his wandering thoughts. The next second, he turned around again and said, "Hey, hey, hey, Brother Lu, don't always stay around Brother Jianyi. Come here and let me touch you. I haven't touched another person's hand in a long time. A man can also do it!"
"Just stop it!" If Zhang Rui's strength had not yet reached the level where he could break away from the floating object, she would have already climbed onto the floating object on the stone archway and hit him twice with the stick.
Is it okay to touch a man's little hand? Then do you want the big pussy bag on a girl's hand?!
"Brother Lu Baian is so amazing. He can reach this level so quickly!" Zhong Yuan on the side watched the others arguing with each other and praised Lu Baian with a smile.
"Sister Xiao Zhong is just sweet-talker, much better than someone else!" Shi Fang seized the opportunity and said to Zhang Rui while counterattacking.
"Hey you……"
Lu Baian didn't give the two a chance to argue anymore. After saying a few simple words to Yu Jianyi, he looked in the direction outside the crowd of five people.
"You're here."
Looking at Lu Baian and Yu Jianyi standing together, Chang Ruijia raised her eyebrows and said to him, "It seems that the results of your exploration have been revealed."
"Yeah," Lu Baian nodded. Yu Jianyi's experiment of getting off the floating object and going into the sea and boarding other people's floating objects may need to be tried many times, but at this moment he can stand normally next to Yu Jianyi, which means that the initial safety should be no problem.
As the only person who had the deepest connection with Chang Ruijia, Lu Baian was preparing to become a bridge of communication between her and others as usual. Unexpectedly, before she could say anything, she saw Zhang Rui and Shi Fang approaching her with ease, chattering as if they were almost telling her every word of what had just happened.
?
Lu Baian had a puzzled look on his face. What happened when he was away?
What made him even more outrageous was that Shi Fang and Zhang Rui, the two people who were a little bit outgoing, were fine, but even Yu Jianyi, the suspicious man, relaxed his tense expression and greeted Chang Ruijia with a smile.
It’s over, the world has changed, the whole world has changed!
