[WeChat, you've really gotten to this point. Do you even know what kind of identities everyone's registering today?]
Let's put it this way: if something happens to them, the entire scientific community will be devastated.
[Could the fairy spirit these big shots are talking about be the one I know?]
I can't think of anyone else besides her.
[If it's her, then it makes sense; loyalty to the Star Gate!]
What kind of riddle are you playing? I don't understand. With so many top researchers emerging, is the scientific community about to undergo a major upheaval?
The online discussions were lively, but the scene was unaffected, with everyone eagerly adding Xinghe's contact information.
They treated it like a priceless treasure.
Sheng Lao Si's heart ached even more, more so than if it had been soaked in acidic water.
They all got Xinghe's contact information, but he got nothing.
They don't even have WeChat or a phone number.
After everyone had mostly dispersed, Sheng Lao Si stepped forward and also took out his phone.
He was a little nervous, "Could I—"
Xinghe smiled and put her phone away. "No."
It was decisive and efficient.
She didn't want to deal with Shabi.
Someone like Sheng Laosi, whose brain is so full of water that it could fill an entire ocean, is even worse.
"oh."
As expected, Sheng Lao Si wasn't too disappointed; he knew he deserved it.
Sheng Lao Si compromised just like that, which surprised Xinghe a little, of course, only a little.
She picked up her small basket and prepared to leave.
Everyone tacitly refrained from asking about the contents of Xinghe's basket, which gave Xinghe a good impression of them.
Sheng Lao Si, "Are you really alright after your injury? You bled a lot back then."
"What? You don't believe in the efficacy of my Bone-Growing Pills?"
Xinghe glared fiercely at Sheng Laosi.
To question her elixirs is to question her!
"That's not what I meant," Sheng Lao Si said hastily, his eyes widening.
"Not the best." Xinghe huffed arrogantly, hugging her little basket tightly.
The short braids woven with lace ribbons behind her had come undone a bit, making her look like a pretty little rag doll with a slightly messy cat.
Sheng Lao Si stared for several seconds before looking away, then lowered his eyes and said, "Thank you for saving me today."
"I'm sorry, I regret what I did before."
"Stop!" Xinghe's eyes widened. "You don't mean to say we're still siblings, and you want to be a good older brother, do you?"
Sheng Lao Si raised his eyes slightly, looked at Xinghe, and asked with a hint of pleading, "Is it okay?"
"Fourth Brother Sheng, you and Second Brother Sheng are truly brothers, even the words you say are almost identical."
Xinghe looked puzzled. "Do I look like I'm lacking a brother? You can say that to your little sister Yueyue."
Sheng Lao Si hurriedly explained, "I really know I was wrong. I really wanted to be a good older brother."
Galaxy: ...
She only felt helpless and amused.
"Because I saved you?"
Sheng Laosi didn't know what to say.
He wasn't very good with words to begin with, and he was even more at a loss for words in this situation.
He must have realized he was wrong long ago, but he was always arrogant and unwilling to delve into those feelings.
During this period, he spent all his free time at the research institute, wanting to master all the pills as quickly as possible, and then apologize to Xinghe.
In Xinghe's eyes, Sheng Laosi's reaction was interpreted as tacit agreement.
"Then I'll repeat what I said to Sheng Lao Er to you again."
"I saved you because the karma you're in is something I caused."
"Now that the cause and effect have been resolved, we have no relationship whatsoever."
Xinghe smiled and said, "So there's no need to feel guilty. What I'm doing is that the karmic retribution has fallen on you. By saving you, I'm simply resolving my own karma."
Sheng Lao Si was terrified, overwhelmed by immense fear. "You saved my life, we shouldn't settle things like this."
The Milky Way's eyes are as beautiful and bright as the stars in the sky.
She smiled and said, “You can’t force the connection between people. Fourth Brother Sheng, I’m just my parents’ daughter. Your sister is Sheng Yue, she has been from the beginning.”
Taoism emphasizes cause and effect. Once the karmic thread between Xinghe and Sheng Laosi was severed, there was no longer any connection between them.
Xinghe felt somewhat happy.
There are only three left. Once all the causal threads are untied, she will have no further connection with them.
Xinghe ignored Sheng Laosi behind him and left with the basket.
Her hair swayed, and her little dress was stained with dirt, yet she still looked beautiful, as if she were shining.
Sheng Lao Si stared at Xinghe's back for a very long time.
He muttered to himself, "Is everything alright?"
My heart area feels very uncomfortable, and my nostrils are also sore.
He was wrong, he didn't want it to be like this, what can he do to make up for his previous mistake?
Thinking back on his past actions, he felt like slapping himself.
Xinghe ignored Sheng Laosi and didn't know what he was thinking; all her attention was focused on the things in the basket.
She brought this out from the secret passage. The light from this thing was so intense that even when Xinghe covered it with leaves, a sliver of light could still be seen through the gaps.
Xinghe carried the basket all the way to the Sheng family's house and back to her room before putting it down.
She retracted the vines, and the contents of the basket rolled out, gurgling and rolling around on the bed before slowly coming to a stop.
Xinghe reached out and poked it. "Egg? Can it talk?"
The egg, emitting a white glow, remained motionless.
The golden boy and jade girl also lay on the egg with curious expressions.
