Chapter 14 Chapter 14



"You must be very sad, right?" said a male guide who was talking to Lin Yuan. "It's so pitiful."

He pressed the corners of his eyes with a fine handkerchief and wiped away the tears of sympathy gracefully. "I simply cannot imagine what I would do if this happened to me."

This is the fifth one today.

The fifth person who ran up to Lin Yuan at the dinner and said this.

Lin Yuan found that he didn't even remember the name of this guide. It was possible that she was a classmate who had studied with him at the Guide Academy in Baita.

Lin Yuan really wanted to ask this classmate seriously what sadness and grief felt like.

But she knew it was inappropriate to say that.

She is a guide who suffers from emotional deficit disorder and has a poor memory. She hasn't experienced normal human emotions such as sadness, anger, sorrow, happiness, etc. for a long time.

Others won't understand.

All she could do was to disguise herself as much as possible and try to respond correctly when she should express a certain emotion.

So Lin Yuan nodded and agreed: "Yes, it's really sad."

Finally, the guide left with satisfaction, allowing Lin Yuan to return to peace and quiet, sitting by the window and continuing to daydream.

The tentacles seemed very excited in the new place, lurking in deserted corners and exploring everywhere. Lin Yuan could hear their whispers incessantly in his mind.

Lin Yuan listened to those words that sounded like a dream, gazing out at the water lilies in the artificial lake. The purple flowers of varying shades were slowly closing their petals in the night.

Jiang Yangshuo saw Lin Yuan sitting by the lake. His friends pointed him out.

"Look, your ex-fiancée." My friend deliberately dragged out the ending sound of the word "ex" with a teasing and sarcastic tone.

"Look at what she's wearing. Does she look like a guide?"

"I said Yang Shuo should have broken up with her a long time ago. What are the conditions of the Jiang family? It's not hard to find a guide who is a good match. Why should you force yourself to adapt to a boring guy?"

These people had made jokes about Lin Yuan like this before, but Jiang Yangshuo didn’t think it was a big deal. Lin Yuan was indeed a weird guide and not very likable.

Now that I have broken up with Lin Yuan, for some reason these words seem a little harsh to me.

His ex-fiancée was sitting at the window near the lake. She was wearing a black dress that was too cool. She didn't wear any jewelry. Her face was porcelain white with only a little red on her lips.

Her chin was supported by her wrist, as white as porcelain, and she was staring blankly at the lake view outside the window.

It really didn't look like a guide's attire. She always did things her own way, and could only barely maintain some basic etiquette.

But in fact, there is a very different kind of beauty, Jiang Yangshuo admitted in his heart. It is very eye-catching, making people want to see her.

Jiang Yangshuo was a high-ranking sentry with excellent eyesight. With just a quick glance, he discovered that in the banquet hall, several sentries seemed to have their eyes fixed on Lin Yuan, as if they were eager to try.

Lin Yuan was very beautiful. He knew this when he first saw Lin Yuan when he was still a teenager.

At that time, his father took him to a banquet and pointed to a little girl who was sitting on the terrace in a daze.

"Go and give it a try. That child's mental strength is very strong. If the match is high, she will be your fiancée."

The little girl, in a formal white dress, with her head tilted, sat alone in a daze beside a sea of ​​flowers.

The sunlight blurred her outline, making her look as beautiful as an elf; even the fragrance of the flowers became mysterious because of her.

The young boy Jiang Yangshuo's heart began to beat violently at that moment.

The match rate they tested was very high, up to 70%, which is a rare high match in today's environment.

Jiang Yangshuo's father was very happy. He himself was also very happy.

I heard that her father and mother have passed away. Don't worry, I will take good care of her in the future.

The boy at that time thought so with a red face.

I just don't know why. As time goes by, the two of them have come to this point.

Jiang Yangshuo pushed aside his laughing friends and walked towards Lin Yuan.

"I heard that you applied to the Special Research Department?" He called the waiter, took a glass of juice, and replaced the wine glass in Lin Yuan's hand.

Lin Yuan's hands were suddenly empty; the low-alcohol drink was taken away and a glass of juice was given to him.

She raised her head and noticed the man in front of her.

The only sentinel she had known in all these years, the one she once called her fiancé.

Standing by the lake filled with the fragrance of flowers, Lin Yuan recalled that this person once held her hand and said many nice things to her.

He promised to stay with her for a long time and wait patiently for her to recover and become a normal person.

He also said that he would not let her have the nightmares of her childhood again, and would not let her be alone again. He said that the two of them would hold hands and help each other and walk a long, long way.

Lin Yuan almost believed it.

But not long ago, this person appeared in front of her, holding the hand of another guide.

Like everyone said, they weren't a good match and it would end.

So their pairing relationship is over, isn't it?

Lin Yuan uttered a confused "ah" before he could say anything.

At this time, the tentacles crawled to somewhere unknown and sent some strange information, distracting her.

"Oh yes, well, I applied for a new job." Lin Yuan answered while sorting out the information.

Jiang Yangshuo frowned.

The sentry was very tall, and the light elongated his shadow, covering the small guide in front of him.

He leaned against the wall with one hand and looked down at Lin Yuan who was sitting in the shadow.

Lin Yuan's eyes were very bright in the darkness, as if dotted with tiny stars.

But those beautiful eyes were not focused on him at all.

There was a hint of excitement in his bright eyes, but he was thinking about other things.

She was thinking about her own things again. She would never act like a normal guide, with only her eyes on her sentinels.

This is what Jiang Yangshuo dislikes most about Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan was always absent-minded, not very interested in anything a guide should be concerned about, and even didn't put his fiancé in the most important position.

Thinking of their broken relationship, Jiang Yangshuo suppressed his irritation.

"Even if we're done, you don't have to do this." Jiang Yangshuo frowned and said in a deep voice, "Lin Yuan, you don't have to deliberately abuse yourself. Those polluted areas on the border are not places a guide can adapt to."

"No, it's not because of you." Lin Yuan wanted to explain seriously.

[It feels furry, I think I've touched it before.] The sound of a tentacle suddenly coming back distracted her from her thoughts.

"What is furry?" Lin Yuan blurted out accidentally.

Jiang Yangshuo's brows were completely locked.

"Oh, sorry. I didn't mean you." Lin Yuan apologized to him, "I meant that going to the border for research has always been something I wanted to do, not because of you."

Jiang Yangshuo frowned and said, "If you can't stand those rumors, there's no need to do that."

"Although we have no relationship anymore, if someone dares to bully you, you can still come to me."

[It has no emotions, and is not alive. But it feels warm to the touch.] Another tentacle sound was heard.

It wasn't alive, but it felt warm. How strange! What could it be? Lin Yuan's thoughts were distracted again.

【It's a little familiar, but it's not furry. 】

[It's very soft, nice to touch, and elastic. I want to touch it for a while longer.]

[It is smooth, has thin skin, and has raised bones.]

One after another, the voices kept echoing in my mind.

Emotionless, warm, furry, elastic, smooth...

What on earth did they find in a place like a ventilation duct?

【Did you hear the sound it made?】

【Nonsense, how can a dead thing make a sound?】

[I heard it. I heard it too. It's a very cute voice, as if she was acting coquettishly.]

It may like us

[Really? Let me touch it and try it. ]

【I want one too.】

【I want one too.】

[Really, it feels good to touch. It gives me a comfortable feeling]

【I think it tastes sweet.】

【Sweet? I like sweet things.】

[Please move aside. I want to touch you for a while longer.]

A noisy sound arose.

Lin Yuan's attention was completely drawn, and she didn't hear clearly what her ex-fiancé standing in front of her said to her, thinking that he was speaking with deep meaning.
