Time passed by unnoticed during the few days Xia He stayed at home and diligently cultivated, until Xiao Lin knocked on Xia He's door, "Xia He, Xia He."
Xia He slowly came out of the room. Usually, when Xiao Lin knocked on the door, it was never anything easy. "Why can't I just enjoy a few more days of a carefree, laid-back life?" Xia He thought to herself.
However, the speed at which he opened the door was by no means slow.
"Xia He, have you missed me?" Xiao Lin asked Xia He with a faint smile on his face.
"Do you want to tell the truth? No." Xia He spoke coldly and indifferently. The smile on Xiao Lin's face vanished instantly, and in a flash, he flipped Xia He over and pinned her against the wall, showering her with kisses. After a long while, Xiao Lin asked, "And now? Have you missed me even a little bit?"
A blush appeared on Xia He's face. She pushed Xiao Lin away and let out a faint hum from her nose.
Seeing this, Xiao Lin stopped teasing Xia He and quickly said, "Professor Fu said that the little boy we brought back has woken up."
Xia He hurriedly said, "Then let's go take a look!" After saying that, she called the two little ones and went out.
Xiao Lin walked silently behind, inwardly scoffing, "Heh, so eager to meet other men?" At this moment, Xia He was unaware that Xiao Lin had planted a rival in her heart.
The two people and two dogs arrived at the door of Professor Fu's laboratory. As soon as they pushed the door open, they saw Professor Fu and Zhou Zihao looking at the little boy.
When the panda and Tangyuan saw Professor Fu, they greeted him warmly, and Professor Fu patted the two little ones on the head to show his welcome.
The little boy was inside the glass room, curiously looking around.
"From my observation, he only remembers that his name is Ayin. He doesn't remember anything else. I haven't observed any special abilities or other skills in him yet, and his speech is not very clear," Professor Fu said, stating his observations.
"Let him out. He doesn't seem to pose any threat. Keeping him locked up indefinitely isn't a good idea," Xia He said.
Ayin seemed to know that Xiahe was speaking up for him, and stared straight at Xiahe with her big, bright eyes.
Xiao Lin, seeing this, expressed his disapproval: "No, after all, they were brought from that research institute. We need to observe them further to see if they are friend or foe." Xiao Lin frowned and looked fiercely at A Yin.
When Ayin saw Xiao Lin's gaze, she showed a timid expression. Turning her head, she looked at Xia He with expectant eyes. Xia He, seeing no threat, said, "Let's release her first. What if she's a survivor who was captured by that mysterious man?"
Xiao Lin couldn't refuse Xia He, so he asked Zhou Zihao to bring him out.
After being brought out, A-Yin walked straight to Xia He's side and slowly said, "Sister... Sister..." Upon hearing this, Xiao Lin's eyes flashed with a fierce light and shot straight at A-Yin.
Xia He looked at A Yin. The boy in front of her was 180 cm tall, but had a baby face and bright, sparkling eyes. When he felt Xiao Lin's fierce gaze, he hid behind Xia He.
Xia He gently patted A Yin's back, signaling Xiao Lin to stop being hostile, and then said to A Yin, "Your name is A Yin, right? Don't worry, we won't hurt you. Can you tell me what happened to you?"
Hearing Xia He's voice, A Yin slowly nodded, "I...I'm called A Yin, I...I don't know...I can't remember anything." Xia He then asked, "We found you in a research institute. There was also a man there who could control plants, do you remember?"
Ah Yin muttered, "Research institute...research institute...ah!" Then Ah Yin squatted down on the ground, clutching her head with both hands, making a very painful sound, "Ah!"
Seeing this, Xia He and Xiao Lin quickly stepped forward to help A Yin up, asking with concern, "A Yin, what's wrong? What happened?"
Veins bulged on A-Yin's forehead, and deep pain was evident in his eyes. He tried hard to recall: "The research institute... there were many people... and experiments... I can't remember clearly, but it was so painful, so painful." His voice was filled with endless despair and fear.
Xia He and Xiao Lin exchanged a glance, a chill rising in their hearts.
Xia He comforted A Yin and said softly, "Don't be afraid, we will help you. Rest for a while, try to remember, and tell us what happened when you feel ready."
Xiao Lin was also observing silently from the side. His doubts had not yet dissipated, but seeing A Yin's real pain, he could no longer bear to doubt her.
Professor Fu frowned upon seeing A-Yin's condition, clearly also worried about her. He said, "This young man's situation is indeed not good."
Xia He and Xiao Lin planned to leave A Yin with Professor Fu, but Professor Fu said, "In this situation, let Dr. Qian take a look. Maybe Dr. Qian will have a solution."
Xia He and Xiao Lin exchanged a glance, realizing that it was indeed true. Xia He squatted down next to A Yin and said, "A Yin, how about I take you somewhere? We'll get lollipops there!"
Xia He coaxed and cajoled A Yin to calm her down, then took out a lollipop, unwrapped it, and fed it to A Yin. A Yin murmured, "Is this... a lollipop? It feels... so sweet."
Upon hearing this, Xia He couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow. What had happened to this child that he didn't even know about Lollipop?
Xia He and Xiao Lin took A Yin to Dr. Qian's laboratory. Dr. Qian was working on the batch of medical equipment that Xia He had given him earlier. He smiled when he saw Xia He and Xiao Lin and said, "You've come. Why did you bring someone with you? And who is this?"
