"Tell me, can raising Gu poison ever end well? In the end, you'll just be the fodder, feeding the poisonous insects, you know that?" Lin Zhenzhen said with deep disgust.
Gong Yao fell into deep thought: "What about the poisonous insects?"
"What do you mean, what should we do?" Lin Zhenzhen didn't understand what he meant at first.
"I mean, who am I, this thriving seedling nurtured with carbonated drinks and junk food, going to harm?"
Lin Zhenzhen was shocked, then gave Gong Yao a round of applause: "I didn't expect you to think of such a profound question. You are a promising young man!"
Gong Yao nodded solemnly: "I am sorry for being born a human being."
Lin Zhenzhen was moved to tears: "It's rare to find a true friend like me."
Gong Yao handed her two tissues and gently patted her back: "Cry."
Lin Zhenzhen paused for a moment, and all the grievances and self-blame that had been hidden seemed to be unsealed when she heard these two words. She rushed into Gong Yao's arms and burst into tears.
Lin Zhenzhen cried uncontrollably, wiping her snot and tears all over Gong Yao's shirt, soaking a large area.
"Are you feeling better?" Gong Yao asked softly after Lin Zhenzhen stopped crying.
Lin Zhenzhen nodded with red eyes: "I'm sorry, I got your clothes dirty."
After crying, Lin Zhenzhen's voice was muffled.
Like a sudden clap of thunder over an empty field on a summer night, deep and romantic, it clearly struck Gong Yao's eardrums.
Gong Yao didn't know how to comfort a girl, especially one whose thought process was clearly different from that of ordinary people.
This is truly a treasure trove.
After venting her frustrations, Lin Zhenzhen felt much better, but then felt a little embarrassed about her actions.
"I really didn't expect to meet someone whose values align with mine so well."
Lin Zhenzhen chuckled and said, "I always thought that other people would find my theory hard to accept."
As she spoke, she seemed to feel a little awkward herself, so she lowered her head, pouted, and focused on drinking her porridge.
Although outsiders generally perceive Gong Yao as a somewhat arrogant and spoiled young master, he is actually a very sensitive and delicate person.
Therefore, Gong Yao had already noticed Lin Zhenzhen's unusual emotions, but he chose to gently not expose her and continued talking along with the conversation.
"During my undergraduate studies, my final paper for an elective course was about the relationship between humans and nature, and I consulted some materials during that time."
From the moment Gong Yao naturally pulled out a tissue and opened his arms to embrace her, to his rambling recollection of the immense workload and unreasonable division of labor within the elective group, the series of actions flowed naturally and smoothly.
If the person in front of you isn't truly abnormal, then there's only one possibility left.
Gong Yao could tell that she was very unhappy, and in a very embarrassing way, so she could only vent her unhappiness in a low voice.
Lin Zhenzhen's nose tingled, and she seemed to want to cry even more.
"So after that, I will never team up with anyone from the same college for elective courses. I'd rather do more work myself than indulge their bad habits."
"I also have a lot of bad habits."
Gong Yao was stunned: "You're different."
Lin Zhenzhen blinked, waiting for Gong Yao to continue.
"You don't want me to write your thesis, do you?" Gong Yao asked in surprise.
Lin Zhenzhen paused for a moment, then slowly said, "I utterly despise academic fraud."
Gong Yao added, "It's not a problem to write it for you, but it depends on what aspect you need."
Lin Zhenzhen was silent for a few seconds, then gritted her teeth and cursed.
Gong Yao scratched his head, looking puzzled.
"Do you want more? If you don't, I'll finish this." Lin Zhenzhen pointed to the last bit of seafood porridge.
Gong Yao quickly waved his hand, indicating that he dared not compete with him for food.
After finishing her meal, Lin Zhenzhen went into the kitchen to tidy up a bit. When she came out, she found Gong Yao making the bed in the bedroom.
"I've changed the sheets. You'll have to make do in my bed tonight. We'll figure out how to find your house key tomorrow."
Lin Zhenzhen nodded, and seeing Gong Yao carrying blankets out, she asked again, "Where are you sleeping?"
Gong Yao: "I'll sleep on the sofa. You should rest first. I still have some work to finish."
Lin Zhenzhen was a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, I came over suddenly and disturbed your work."
Gong Yao, holding the blanket, bent down and looked at Lin Zhenzhen: "I'd like to be bothered by you a few more times."
Lin Zhenzhen felt that the little deer in her chest was a bit restless today.
"You don't think I'm cursing you to never find your house key, do you?" Gong Yao said with a simple smile.
The poor little deer, belonging to Lin Zhenzhen, lost its vitality once again.
"I'll change to an electronic lock tomorrow, bye-bye."
After Lin Zhenzhen finished speaking, she slammed the bedroom door shut, leaving Gong Yao with a dashing back view.
Surprisingly, in an unfamiliar environment, Lin Zhenzhen didn't hold back at all and slept until noon the next day with the thick blackout curtains drawn.
Gong Yao had already left for work, and the steamed buns left on the table had gone cold. Lin Zhenzhen microwaved them for a while and quickly finished off the plate of crab roe steamed buns.
After finishing her meal, Lin Zhenzhen drifted into a daze. The weather outside was lovely; on a winter afternoon, sunlight streamed onto the balcony, casting straight, warm lines on the floor.
There were two or three children playing together downstairs.
Another image gradually emerged in Lin Zhenzhen's mind: mountains, bamboo forests, birds startled by her, and the front door of her house that she could see after turning the corner and parting the rapeseed flower field.
