In Shen Cheng's impression, Xiao Hui always held his head high and proudly, never looking him in the eye, as if he was very cold to him.
But every time he went to the woods, he could always see Xiao Hui waiting for him at the old place.
Even if Chen Cheng stroked Xiao Hui's fur, Xiao Hui would just ignore him and never show any disdain.
"Okay, let's go check on Gray."
Shen Cheng smiled slightly and nodded to agree to Xin Sheng's request, not only for Xin Sheng, but also for himself.
"I'll go too."
Liusu walked over and started talking. After all, whether it was witnessing Hui's death or picking up Xinsheng, it was she, Chen Cheng, and Shao Silin who were together.
However, now Chen Cheng and Liu Su no longer play with Shao Silin, and Shao Silin is also very tactful and does not act as a light bulb anymore. Instead, he hangs out with Liu Tao and Lu Mingjing all day long, running around with their arms around each other all day long.
These people were even warned by the Institute of Biological Sciences, saying that they were damaging the image of special agents...
"Thank you, Sister Liusu."
After the matter was finalized, the few of them packed up and immediately set off for the woods near the Shen family.
It might be a psychological effect. When Shen Cheng thought that the wolves in the woods were no longer there, he felt that the woods were no longer as lively as before and were very lonely.
“Chen Cheng, yes, squirrel.”
Xinsheng was carefully observing the appearance of the woods on the way, and pointed at a big squirrel jumping back and forth on a branch, looking very happy.
Xin Sheng didn't become depressed because she was going to see Hui, which made Shen Cheng feel a little relieved.
Chen Cheng doesn't think that Xin Sheng is still naive enough to think that Hui is just "asleep". He can only say that Xin Sheng has walked out of that shadow and can face a new life with confidence.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the first place.
This is not a place to bury ashes, but a place where other wolves are buried. There are small mounds made of earth and stones everywhere.
This was what Shen Cheng requested after he dealt with Xin Sheng's matter. The Institute of Biological Sciences naturally did not refuse. After all, this wolf pack also provided them with considerable help.
"Everyone, I'm here to see you."
Xin Sheng understood what these graves meant, stepped forward, and whispered:
"I am living a good life now. Thank you everyone. Now, everyone can sleep peacefully. I will live a good life."
“…”
After saying a few words to these grave mounds, Xinsheng fell silent.
Shen Cheng stepped forward and rubbed Xinsheng's head.
Xinsheng's gray ears twitched and he turned his head to look at Shen Cheng.
Shen Cheng said softly, "Shall we go see Hui?"
"Um."
Xinsheng nodded.
Looking at the graves, Chen Cheng nodded slightly and walked deeper into the woods with Xinsheng's tassel.
They didn't stop until they came to an ancient giant tree.
In Shen Cheng's memory, when Xiao Hui was waiting for him, he would often lie under the shade of a tree, basking in the sunlight that filtered through the shade, with his tail wagging weakly behind him.
And now, all that was left there was a small grave mound, with Ashes inside and Chen Cheng outside.
"Gray, I'm here, it's up to you."
Squatting in front of the gray grave, Xin Sheng whispered, "Thank you for entrusting me to Chen Cheng. Chen Cheng is very good to me. I am very happy now."
As he spoke, Xinsheng picked up a stone that was scattered on the ground beside him and piled it back on the grave mound.
Wolves are social animals, but Xinsheng is now alone. However, Xinsheng has never shown any loneliness because...
"Everyone fell asleep to protect me, including you, Hui. But I am not alone now, because I have Chen Cheng here. Chen Cheng is my only relative."
Xinsheng spoke very slowly and softly, but everyone present could hear him clearly.
Liusu looked at Chen Cheng, pursed her lips and smiled faintly.
Chen Cheng is Xin Sheng's only one, so isn't he also her only one?
Chen Cheng's face was filled with gentle smiles. The moment Hui entrusted Xin Sheng to him, he had already decided to take care of Xin Sheng as a family member.
After visiting Hui, Xinsheng stood up and turned to look at Chen Cheng: "Let's go back."
"good."
Looking at Xin Sheng walking over, Chen Cheng naturally took Xin Sheng's hand.
Feeling the warmth from Shen Cheng's palm, Xin Sheng's tail wagged, appearing somewhat happy.
Liusu took Xinsheng's other hand.
Xinsheng was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Liusu.
Liu Su smiled slightly: "In fact, even if Chen Cheng is not here, you don't have to be lonely, because you still have us family members, right?"
Looking at Liusu, Xinsheng was silent for a moment, then nodded vigorously: "Yes, family!"
At the same time, Xinsheng's tail was shaking more violently.
Walking along the path in the forest, the three of them set out on the journey back to the Shen family.
When he got home, Shen Cheng opened the door and saw Shui Laiyao kneeling on the blanket in the living room with a chess board in front of him. He stood straight with a serious look on his face: "Mr. Shen, I want to challenge you!"
Shen Cheng was shocked by this posture. If he hadn't seen the chessboard, Shen Cheng would have thought that Minase Yao wanted to have a samurai duel with him.
"Xiaoyao, what are you doing..."
"Grandpa said, no matter how powerful your teacher is, without actual combat, you'll always be a flower in a greenhouse. Only combat can help people grow, so..."
Having said that, Shui Laiyao bowed to Shen Cheng: "Mr. Shen, please accept my challenge!"
Seeing Minase Haruka's posture, Shen Cheng's expression became obviously solemn.
Minase Haruka is obviously like a blind bear knocking on the door - come prepared (bear)!
My chess skills were originally on par with Minase Haruka's. Now that Minase Haruka has been instructed by his grandfather, if his skills improve even a little bit, he will be able to defeat me.
Shen Cheng was not afraid of losing, mainly because of Minase Haruka's aura, which made Shen Cheng feel that the end of his loss would be suicide by seppuku!
Taking a deep breath, Shen Cheng walked forward and sat opposite Minase Yao.
Liusu and Xinsheng looked at each other, and without disturbing the other party, they went about their own business.
The chess pieces on the chessboard have been placed, but Shen Cheng hasn't even made a single move yet. Miase Yao's forehead is sweating with nervousness, and her feet wrapped in white socks are rubbing against each other nervously, as if she is facing a formidable enemy.
Shen Cheng scratched the back of his head: “Let’s just play chess like before, you don’t have to be like this.”
Minase Haruka nodded without hesitation and said, "This is my first battle after being taught by Grandpa. I don't want to disappoint Grandpa!"
