Chapter 177
Mu Ling didn’t know if this was possible, but she was a little sensitive about the Death Beast recently. Anyway, let’s verify it first.
Mu Ling told Brother Xiang about this, and Xiang Bie informed Chai Yunyue.
Chai Yunyue was very happy to receive the call from Brother Xiang. When he heard that Brother Xiang asked him to do something, he immediately agreed like an enthusiastic puppy.
Mu Ling sat in the tree house, listening to Chai Yunyue’s loud voice on the loudspeaker, and whispered to Brother Xiang: "He changes his face so quickly."
Xiang Bie: "..."
Chai Yunyue: "..."
Chai Yunyue heard Mu Ling's voice and choked up. After a while, he asked: "Xiang, Brother Xiang, are you with...her?"
This "her" was very subtle.
Xiang Bie said calmly: "Yeah."
Chai Yunyue was silent.
Mu Ling was not happy: "Why, can't you be with me? Director Chai, I was the one who bandaged your leg."
Chai Yunyue: "..."
He said so, but...
the extremely indecent Xiang Mimi came to his mind again...
Chai Yunyue shuddered and said humbly: "Of course, it's just that, I didn't expect..."
Mu Ling muttered: "What's unexpected, then, do you have any trouble about Hongdou?"
Chai Yunyue immediately said: "Of course, it's no trouble!"
The tone was even more serious than when he was talking to Brother Xiang.
After saying a few more words, Chai Yunyue hung up the call in a hurry, and then looked at the clock on the wall with sweat on his forehead - 12:30 in the evening.
Hey, at this time, they are still together.
What are they going to do?
I never expected that, he found his brother, but he also had a sister-in-law...
And judging from the situation, the sister-in-law still has the final say in the family...
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Chai Yunyue was ready to be a low-profile man in the future.
After hanging up the call, in the tree house, Mu Ling talked to Brother Xiang about the third service area.
"Now the ten war beasts in the nursery are full. If the ones in front don't fit in the cages, there will be no place to accommodate the ones that come after the second batch is released, so the third service area must be prepared. I've thought about the location and have picked out two plots of land. Can you help me analyze which one is better?"
Mu Ling turned on the computer, clicked on the map, and drew two circles on the map.
Mu Ling pointed to the circle on the left and said, "This area is large and flat. There are water sources and rivers nearby. The environment is good, but it is too far. It is more than 30 kilometers away from the second service area. It is too remote. Tourists have to transfer at another station, which is a waste of time."
Mu Ling pointed to the circle on the right and said, "This area is smaller than the previous one, but it is less than two kilometers away from the second service area. In this way, water power and sewage treatment can be used. Directly connecting to the equipment of the second service area, the development cost is greatly reduced, and because it is close, we can also build a mountain road with a small bridge and flowing water, so that tourists can walk there by themselves and experience the pleasure of walking through the jungle. Of course, those who don’t want to walk can also take a car directly. Because it is close, some buildings of the third service area can be seen from the second service area, which can also greatly attract tourists. "
Mu Ling became more and more excited as she spoke, and she was still gesturing and drawing on the map, outlining the blueprint she imagined.
When she had almost finished speaking, she didn't hear the response from the man beside her. She couldn't help but wonder and turned to look over.
This time, she met the man's deep eyes.
The rest of the words were instantly stuck in her throat, and Mu Ling froze, looking at Brother Xiang.
The tree house is really small, which means that if two adults want to stay in this small house at the same time, they have to be very close to each other.
The air was fine just now, but now, for some reason, it suddenly became slightly hot.
Mu Ling's eyes flashed, and she picked her nails with her fingers, muttering, "You, why are you looking at me, looking at the map."
Xiang Bie didn't move, still looking at her.
His eyes were too explicit, Mu Ling had already seen what he wanted to do, she bit her lip and lowered her voice, "No... There are surveillance... They must be peeking again..."
Mu Ling no longer has any trust in her employees!
Xiang Bie whispered, "No." He moved closer: "I asked Wei Li to lock the surveillance room."
Mu Ling: "..." So you have planned it all!
Mu Ling didn't believe it: "Brother Wei will definitely abuse his power for personal gain! He is definitely capable of doing such a thing..."
Before Mu Ling finished her words, Xiang Bie moved closer to her. Now, the distance between the two became too close, so close that they could feel each other's breath... He said: "He doesn't dare."
Mu Ling struggled: "But... um..."
The slightly warm and soft touch suddenly pressed on her lips. Mu Ling clenched her fists instantly, and her heart beat fast unconsciously!
The cold wind shuttled through the woods, and the crescent moon in the sky was shining.
On the grass below, the herbivores were still eating night grass comfortably.
A spotted python swam and swam, and finally swam under the tree house.
It climbed up the tree trunk, but when it reached the door, it couldn't get in because the door was closed.
The python was unwilling to give up, so it slowly wrapped the tree house with its body, and then used the tip of its tail to knock on the door.
"Someone's coming!" A panicked female voice rang out from inside.
Unfortunately, the python had no hearing, so it couldn't hear the female voice. It just spit out its tongue and sniffed the familiar smell inside.
Yes, snakes rely on their tongues to produce smells. When the snake's tongue is extended, it will get some material particles. When it retracts, it extends the tongue into the small cavity above the mouth, which is the snake's nose. After the particles are transmitted into the nose, it can smell the odor.
Snakes have very poor eyesight. Almost all snakes are nearsighted. Snakes also do not have external ears and cannot hear human voices. Therefore, snakes perceive the surrounding environment through their tongues and vibrations of their abdomens.
Speaking of abdominal vibrations, this is also the reason why Xiaohua was able to discover six war beasts underground on the planet Nibra. Other animals rely purely on smell or hearing to sense the environment, but the basement door of the bank was sealed at the time, and the smell and sound were isolated. Other animals could not sense it. Only the python could rely on the vibrations of the ground to know the situation underground, so it was able to find the six war beasts.
And now, Xiaohua is also looking for Mu Ling through its sense of smell and vibration.
Smelling Mu Ling's breath, it knew that the vibration frequency was the highest here, so it was here, no escape.
The python continued to knock on the door, and there was another chaos inside, and then the wooden door finally opened.
The python had a big head and went straight in.
"Oh!" Mu Ling's cheeks were red, and she covered her mouth with the back of her hand. She thought there was someone outside, but it turned out to be a snake!
"Xiaohua!" Mu Ling muttered, hugging the python's head.
Xiang Bie's face was calm at this time, but if you look closely, you can find that his ears and neck are ridiculously red, as if they are almost cooked.
Mu Ling's cheeks and lips were also red, and she glanced at Brother Xiang secretly.
Xiang Bie coughed lightly and said, "I'll go down first."
Then he pushed away the python's thick tail and left the tree house by himself.
After Xiang Bie left, the house became spacious, and Xiaohua happily swam in with her whole body and stuck close to Mu Ling.
Mu Ling fell on the cushion, hugged the python tightly, buried her face in the python's slippery body, and muttered: "Xiaohua, have you ever been in love?"
Xiaohua didn't know what nonsense Mu Ling was talking about. Its tail was swinging and it tightly wrapped around Mu Ling.
Mu Ling chuckled again, and then didn't struggle. She just hugged the python, but her eyes looked out the door...
-That
night, Brother Xiang didn't come back, and Mu Ling slept in the small tree house until the next morning, when she was awakened by the cries of animals.
Mu Ling stretched lazily, then touched to the side and touched the cool python that was coiled like a mosquito coil.
She yawned, got up, and stuck her head out to look under the tree.
When she saw this, she was stunned. There were so many animals coming down.
It was probably because it was too late last night and they didn't notice her coming. They all came this morning after they smelled her scent.
Mu Ling climbed down, and the brown bear below immediately came up to sniff Mu Ling. Other animals also came up, some nuzzled Mu Ling, and some licked Mu Ling.
Mu Ling touched them one by one, and then caught a few animals at random to look at their old injuries.
Some were lame, and some were slightly blind. These fighting beasts were all broken and tattered. Even the brown bear, which looked quite normal, had severe malnutrition.
Mu Ling played with the animals for a while, and suddenly heard footsteps behind her.
She turned her head and saw Xiang Bie walking down the hillside with a bucket in his hand.
The bucket was filled with spring water. Xiang Bie put the bucket on a big rock and said to Mu Ling, "I'll get a towel from the car."
Xiang Bie came back with a compressed towel and saw that Mu Ling was already washing her face with clean water, but she had a little trouble doing it herself, so Xiang Bie hurried over to help her hold the bucket.
Mu Ling finished washing up quickly, and then she also helped Xiang Bie hold the bucket so that he could wash as well.
Xiang Bie said, "I washed by the stream."
Mu Ling said "Oh" and let go of the bucket.
Xiang Bie frowned, held the back of her hand and said, "I'll wash it again."
Mu Ling: "..."
Mu Ling wanted to laugh: "Why do you have to wash it again if you've already washed it?"
Xiang Bie observed her expression carefully.
Mu Ling tilted her head and smiled at him: "Hmm?"
Xiang Bie was silent for a moment, then said: "I like to be clean, wash it again."
After saying that, he asked Mu Ling to help him hold the bucket, and he insisted on washing it again.
Mu Ling had to help him hold the bucket, but she couldn't help but laughed out loud.
Xiang Bie heard it, his ears turned red again, and he wiped his face quickly.
Mu Ling still had a lot of things to do today. After washing up, she was about to leave. Before leaving, she asked again: "So, which of the two pieces of land is better, you haven't told me yet?"
Xiang Bie said: "You have thought so much about the second piece, you obviously like this one more."
Mu Ling smiled and said: "Yes, then this one, I'm leaving."
Mu Ling got in the car and started the engine.
But when she was about to turn the car, Xiang Bie in the back spoke again: "Mu Ling."
Mu Ling was stunned and looked out of the car window at him: "Ah?"
Xiang Bie stood in the middle of a group of animals. The animals looked at her reluctantly, and he also looked at her reluctantly. He and them, like a miracle, merged into one.
Mu Ling asked: "What's wrong?"
Xiang Bie was silent for a while, pursed his lips: "Are you coming tonight?"
Mu Ling: "..."
Mu Ling stepped on the accelerator, turned the direction, and drove the car directly into the mountain road.
It was not until she drove another one or two meters that a clear female voice floated out of the car window: "Come!"
The car disappeared completely in a short while.
Afterwards, Xiang Bie let out a breath, looked at the group of animals around him, and said with lingering fear: "She is still willing to come, so, I should not have performed... badly last night... right?"
He had been attentive all morning and watched her expression, just because he was afraid that she would be dissatisfied. After all, it was their first kiss...
He really had no confidence...
