Chapter 39 is Bad Temptation, hurry up!
Because Leo is not in human form, he cannot always be released to stay with Jiang Changyi, so he keeps flying around in the contract space and playing.
Seeing Jiang Changyi appear in the contract space, Leo ran over excitedly from the green meadow like a sheepdog herding sheep.
The dog looked so good that Jiang Changyi felt that Leo was about to bark as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Leo~ (Master~)"
"Leo~ (Look at me, have I grown up a little~)"
Jiang Changyi moved Leo's furry little head, looked at his body size, and felt that he seemed to have grown a little bit.
"Eh? Are you growing up so fast?"
Leo shook the little wings on his back: "Leo~Leo~ (In order to grow up to be jealous, of course I have to work harder~)"
Jiang Changyi nearly fell over when he heard this. "No, where did you hear that kind of talk, little brat? Jealousy? We're not the kind of people who live a life of luxury!"
"Leo~" Leo didn't argue, but just followed Jiang Changyi's legs, circling around and chasing his tail.
Little Leo also has his own little plans in mind.
Seeing that his contractors had contracted with all handsome men, Leo became very anxious and regretted that he could not evolve quickly and enter the final orc form.
However, there is no point in rushing about this kind of thing, so all I can do is follow Jiang Changyi out to fight monsters and obtain magic crystals to level up quickly.
After Jiang Changyi finished cooking, he called Sisi and the others to the room to eat.
Through chatting, Jiang Changyi learned that Zong Qiong still attached great importance to this mother and daughter. Not only did he give them certain management authority, but he also had a specialist to protect them.
In this way, Jiang Changyi can go out to collect supplies without worry, and the matter of going to the ranch to catch animal cubs can also be put on the agenda.
"Xiao Yi..."
Wu Wanqiu grabbed Jiang Changyi's hand, his eyes hesitant.
Her son is so sensible, so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.
Because of her tremors, Wu Wanqiu was not only unable to perform many tasks, but she also often had trouble cooking. She would either spill freshly washed rice or break a dish. After working for a long time, she would end up not even able to eat a single bite.
If eight-year-old Jiang Changyi had not learned to cook by standing on a small stool in front of the stove, the family of three would have inevitably gone hungry.
"Xiaoyi, it's because of Mom's incompetence that you and Sisi have been growing up in misery, with poor food and shelter, and you've even been bullied for no reason."
Wu Wanqiu had never gotten over the fact that Jiang Changyi had been publicly humiliated by Bai Zhenzhen during the day. A mother loves her own flesh and blood the most, and when Bai Zhenzhen scolded Jiang Changyi, Wu Wanqiu felt even more upset than when she herself was being pointed at.
Jiang Changyi held Wu Wanqiu's hand in return. This action can convey a physical signal of peace and stability, which can help the other person calm down.
Although it was Wu Wanqiu who took the initiative to hold his hand at the beginning, it was more like an action of seeking a sense of security out of inner helplessness, and a subconscious physical signal of wanting to rely on others.
Just like when facing Jiang Changming who was sitting on the ground, Jiang Changyi took the initiative to squat down and keep his eyes level, which silently and effectively made the other person's body aware of his goodwill before necessary.
Body language is actually a form of mind reading. Jiang Changyi is a very good learner, so after observing people's expressions in the Dark Horse Club for a long time, he has learned some skills in this regard.
Jiang Changyi keenly sensed Wu Wanqiu's inner uneasiness. "Mom, why are you suddenly saying this? None of this is your fault, and it's all in the past. Believe me, in this apocalypse, no one will be able to bully us anymore."
Wu Wanqiu looked at her children lovingly, her hands shaking unconsciously. "I know, I know you're doing well. Mom and Sisi are both Awakened now, and the points we earn from working in the experimental fields are enough for our family to live on. Even if others want to gossip about us, they have to consider the food we grow. But, Mom is worried that you'll get into danger outside the base..."
Hearing this, Jiang Changsi quickly responded: "Yes, brother, my mother and I have high positions. We can grow our own food and definitely survive!"
Looking at the concerned eyes of his family, Jiang Changyi felt a little touched.
They are a real family, not just bound together by blood, but by the feelings nurtured by sharing weal and woe for more than ten or twenty years.
Jiang Changyi hugged his mother and sister, "Don't worry, I am an Awakener, and I am very strong, stronger than you can imagine, I'm just a little low-key. Even so, I still need to become stronger."
Jiang Changyi looked at his palm and said, "I only believe in my own strength. Only when I am strong enough can I protect everything I want to protect."
Whether it is Chen Yonglong's martial arts or Zong Qiong's intelligence, they are just the guarantees given to the base by Jiang Changyi. He understands that if he is just an ordinary person, he will still be at the bottom of the base and be bullied.
Jiang Changyi has always been a hard-working person. Although he is a bit of a loner, it does not affect his exuberant vitality. Like a lone bird, he stubbornly flies across the ocean to the brilliant horizon on the other side.
Wu Wanqiu and Jiang Changsi certainly understood what kind of person Jiang Changyi was. After hearing what he said, they no longer insisted and just prayed silently for him in their hearts.
Chu Yesheng, who was reading a book nearby, watched all this silently with his peripheral vision. Although he finally withdrew his gaze, he never turned the page of the book in his hand.
No one knew what he was thinking in the flickering candlelight.
When going to bed at night, Chu Yesheng returned to his original world. Leo came out to keep watch, and Zhimi approached him with a thieving look.
"Contractor, my thirst for knowledge is unbelievable. Please allow me to learn new things!"
To be honest, Zhimi's face really has a natural magic that is irresistible.
Jiang Changyi is the type of person who would say "hurry up" when faced with this kind of bad temptation.
What's more, Zhimi's learning ability is really abnormal. He even learned Leo's coquettish tone.
He scratched his head in confusion. "But... what should I do? How am I supposed to get these knowledge fragments out of nowhere?"
"It's as simple as that." Zhimi smiled, and this smile was really evil and charming in the quiet candlelight night.
"Please let down your guard... and enter my fantasy world..."
"Don't resist... breathe slowly..."
Zhimi's voice was soft and hoarse, slowly disintegrating and crumbling Jiang Changyi's sanity like sand.
