Chapter 188 Merry Christmas, I Don’t Care! I can do either! …
We are all adults, there is nothing shameful in failing in a confession, especially since it is just a date.
The boy was not embarrassed at all. Instead, he looked at Bai Ling, then at the postman, and smiled in a low voice, "I will keep it a secret."
After saying that, he stood up, turned around, found someone he liked from the queue, and asked him on the spot, "Let's go to the movies, do you want to go?"
The alpha was stunned for a moment, nodded happily, and agreed immediately.
Nightingale quickly reported: [The guy from the Public Affairs Department is here to cast a wide net]
The nurse replied: [That little Biao falls in love with every woman he meets, and he changes three times in one month. Fortunately, our husband is very strong-willed.]
Nightingale: [Why else would you say he is a husband?]
The male who revolves around his family is the most attractive male - this has always been the criterion in the bird world.
Nightingale felt happy, as if he had made a fortune from buying stocks that had soared in value. He also felt that he had a very good vision and correct ideas, and he felt much more motivated when he was working.
With Commander Bai looking after the place, everything went smoothly and we even closed the stall earlier than usual.
Nightingale glanced at the time and found that he could just catch the last movie of the day. He plucked up the courage to give the postman the tickets that had not been issued before, and whispered:
"Mr. D, please ask Niao Niao to go and see it too."
The postman said "thank you" and accepted it.
After a while, Nightingale saw the postman walk over and whisper something to Bai Ling. Bai Ling looked up in surprise, then smiled and said two words.
Nightingale couldn't read lips, but he held his face and guessed that it must be "OK".
The screening room is a facility built into the modular camp. It was initially set up with 400 seats, but later due to the large number of people, the number was increased to 600. The remaining tickets have bad seats, either in the last row or near the edge.
Bai Ling and Yu Chen sat in the last row. They took a quick glance and found Nightingale and the young nurse sitting in the back. The two men smiled at Bai Ling, and against the dark background, it seemed as if they were observing him secretly.
The nurse smelled the popcorn and was surprised: "Is the popcorn machine outside working?"
Nightingale took out the card from her pocket and said, "It works. It's just been repaired. What flavor do you want? It's my treat today."
Little nurse: "It has to be chocolate hazelnut, king bomb flavor."
As soon as Nightingale stood up, her view was blocked by the figure in front of her. The postman also stood up and asked Bai Ling softly what snacks he wanted.
Bai Ling wanted to get up and follow him, "Let me go, your legs are not convenient."
Yu Chen pushed him to sit down, "My legs are sore from sitting, get up and move around."
Bai Ling couldn't persuade him, so he had to let him go. But judging from the situation, this guy seems quite happy.
Watching movies and making popcorn in the military camp, taking a break from the stressful work, everything seemed so new and novel. Compared to countless midnight dreams, the details of real life are richer. Yu Chen stood in front of the crackling popcorn machine, feeling dazed as if he was traveling through time.
Nightingale held the hot popcorn bucket and gave way to him. "Just press this button. You can choose the flavor and sweetness on the screen. The general standard is three spoons of sugar."
Nightingale left first, leaving Yu Chen to take over.
At this time, someone patted his shoulder from behind. It turned out to be the soldier who greeted him before. He said cheerfully: "Hey, postman brother, come out to watch a movie with Commander Bai."
Yu Chen said "hmm" and chose the flavor, chocolate hazelnut.
"You're really lucky. Last time, someone in our platoon wanted to invite Commander Bai to watch "A Picture from the Past," but he refused," the soldier said sourly. "He said he had watched this movie 11 times and would vomit if he watched it again."
Yu Chen was originally selecting the sugar content, but when he heard this, he was stunned for a second and his finger accidentally touched the screen.
There are restrictions on showing movies in military camps. In order to avoid stress for soldiers, war films should not be shown, separation films should not be shown, and horror and bloody films should also not be shown. As a result, there are not many options when it comes to movies that are both mentally healthy and have interesting plots.
Commander Bai spent twenty years in the military in his previous life, so he had certainly seen enough of these movies.
But he agreed without hesitation.
Yu Chen thought, it is hard to describe his tolerance towards me in one word. If I have to put it in a concrete way, it would be that even if I had watched a movie 11 times, I would still be willing to watch it again with me.
Seeing that he was stunned, the soldier stretched out his hand and waved it in front of his eyes, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Yu Chen came back to his senses and said lightly, "Fever and brain fever."
I was so excited that I accidentally touched the button and added a spoonful more sugar than the standard recommendation.
But when he returned with the imperfect popcorn, his bird picked one and threw it into his mouth, commenting, "Is it sweet? It tastes just right for me."
This cheater bird.
Yu Chen asked him, "What about the movie?"
Bai Ling answered without hesitation: "This is my first time watching it."
Yu Chen said nothing and just stared at him quietly.
Bai Ling was defeated by the piercing gaze. He pinched Yu's thigh and added slowly, "It feels very different when I see you for the first time."
At the beginning of the movie, the voice also dropped to G minor, and Falcon's eyes were dark and clear, "But I really like you, popcorn."
Yu Chen said nothing, silently replaced the word "popcorn" with "monster fish", raised his lips happily, and stuffed the entire bucket into the bird's arms.
Not without flaws.
Even when they were dating, there were times when they couldn't agree on the same tune, but what was better about them than others was that they could tolerate each other.
Nightingale and the little nurse observed the whole scene and found that the two had little interaction. Commander Bai ate popcorn seriously, and when he got tired after a while, he closed his eyes and took a rest. The postman did not force him to talk, and just enjoyed the movie quietly.
Nightingale and the little nurse looked at each other.
What a stable couple!
Little did they know that these two had quarreled and fought on the bed, the floor, the sofa, the kitchen, and in front of the bathroom mirror. Now they were in a truce period, and both sides seemed to have a sense of mutual sympathy.
Bai Ling had a good sleep. After the movie was over, he stretched his body and asked, "How was the movie?"
Bai Ling has indeed watched "From the Past" many times, but this is enough to prove that it is a good movie. It is a classic interstellar Hollywood-style production, with a smooth and wonderful beginning, development, climax and ending. The actors are all real people, and it is definitely not a shoddy AI production.
Of course, its story is classic and can be called old-fashioned.
It tells the story of a couple who have been in love for many years. Suddenly one day, the hero disappeared, but the heroine found his tombstone in an unnamed cemetery. The date of death on it was ten years ago - before the heroine knew him.
The heroine suddenly realized that she had been in love with a man who had been dead for many years. The male protagonist should be just a ghost who has strayed into time and space. Now that his soul is exhausted, he has disappeared.
The heroine was determined to see her lover, so she signed a contract, participated in the scientific research of the time machine, and was sent back to the past. There, she met the 17-year-old male protagonist, and did everything she could to help him escape from his original family and send him to treat a congenital disease...
However, at this time, the people from the Time Management Bureau issued a ban, ordering the heroine to go back, otherwise she would disappear completely because of the change in the timeline.
The heroine and the hero spent their last afternoon together. Under the setting sun, the heroine turned around and told him with a smile - don't worry, he came from the past in her life, but they will meet again in the future.
The ending of the story is semi-open, and the director did not explain whether the heroine disappeared completely.
The last shot is that the male protagonist has survived the death date on the tombstone in good health. He holds a bouquet of flowers and finds a door anxiously and expectantly. I knocked on the door and it opened - the movie ended and the word "Thanks" appeared on the black screen.
The film has won several awards for best director and screenwriter. In addition to being well-organized, it also invited a famous interstellar cosmologist to serve as the setting director.
Many movie fans praised it as "professional, attentive, and respectful of science."
Yu Chen looked at the physicist's name in the list of thanks and felt that it looked familiar.
Bai Ling gestured: "That's the one you fucked me with in the basement that day, the guy on the radio who was talking about an asteroid hitting the planet."
Yu Chen suddenly realized, "It turned out to be him."
It is rare to see a physicist directing a science fiction romance film. But think about it, this scientist seems to appear frequently on radio and television, and has participated in many brain science reality shows. He is considered to be the most knowledgeable person in the entertainment industry and the most knowledgeable person in the academic world.
Yu Chen smiled and said, "He is very good at popularizing science. If he is free, please invite him to give a lecture here."
Bai Ling checked and said, "I'm afraid not recently. His homepage said that he will be studying in the Federation for the next year."
It is normal for academic circles in different countries to visit each other.
This was just a casual remark and the two quickly put it out of their minds. However, Bai Ling did not expect that the next time he thought of this physicist would be a cold and desperate night a year later.
Walking outside, the ceiling was decorated with bright colorful lights. Bao Yu and two bionic robots were carrying ladders to install Christmas light strips everywhere.
In the blink of an eye, Christmas is here with the ringing of bells.
This week, Kidd led the Jaegers to an unstoppable force and wiped out the last remnants of the Federation's mechanical soldiers at the end of the continent. They finally put the [100% Occupied] sign on the map of this planet.
The mopping-up work is still in progress, but the main force will be able to regroup before Christmas Eve, return to the battalion headquarters, and have a steaming hot meal.
Of course, don’t eat too much. Otherwise I won’t have the energy to squat down and open the gifts one by one.
Nightingale received the pine nuts sent by her grandmother and the melon seeds sent by her cousin in advance. She cracked them all day long and her mouth was covered with blisters when she woke up the next day.
He opened the door with a groan in pain, and saw a gift wrapped in green paper and tied with a red ribbon on the ground. He rubbed his eyes, thinking that he had no other relatives. He stretched his head to look into the corridor and saw identical bags at the doors of other dormitories.
Confused, he took it into the house, put it on the table, opened it, and looked inside - wow! What a big roll of wool socks. There were ten pairs tied together, with a small label proudly displaying that it was 100% pure thick wool, without any adulteration.
It’s still his code number.
He pulled out his socks, and underneath was a multi-functional lighting lighter. It is said to have a flame that never goes out. The left side can burn continuously for 24 hours to emit heat, and the right side can illuminate for 72 hours without interruption of power.
These small props can save lives at critical moments and take into account the most extreme situations.
Who on earth sent this? It's so thoughtful... He shook the bag and a small Christmas card fell out. It read:
[Every soldier should have a pair of bright eyes and a pair of warm feet. Wishing you a merry Christmas. ——D. & Bai Ling]
That morning, every early riser in the military camp was met with an uncontrollable howl.
“!!! I can’t stand it anymore. I really want to call them daddy and mommy!!”
"Calm down, Yingying!...So who is daddy and who is mommy?"
"I don't care! I can do anything!!"
This gift was spread widely, even Huo Yuan and Sava who were not here received it - and it was a special edition.
Huo Yuan, confused, pulled out a large roll of cash from his bulging wool socks.
[Kite]: I know that Christmas gifts are socks and lighters, but what is the purpose of putting money in them? Is there something wrong?
[Golden Overlord Black Bread]: Little white dove, you don’t understand this! (Akicks to hips) This is a tradition of the old Empire. Rich and generous parents would stuff cash into Christmas stockings and hang them over their children's beds. If there were children visiting our house last night, everyone would have received one... I received this kind of gift when I went to my friend's house for Christmas when I was a child, but the one today is definitely the thickest I have ever received!
Savoy is the young master of the Duke's family. The traditions he talked about are of course the old customs of the upper class.
Old-school parents will prepare gifts for their children's good friends in a gentle and gentlemanly manner. It doesn’t matter whether there is money or not. What matters is that the children are happy and can play together next year.
He doted on the child and even took care of other children who played well with him.
[Golden Overlord Black Bread]: Stinky bird! I now declare that you are the most popular little friend in my circle of friends!
If this happened when we were kids, if someone in our class had parents like this, all the other kids would be envious of him or her.
For example, the little hen, the little seagull, and the little sea hare were all rolling around in excitement, while the little black-winged kite was still scratching its head, wondering how much gift to return.
On this side, Bai Ling sat on the bed, staring blankly at the banknotes in his socks. They were brand new, with consecutive numbers, and still emitting the smell of printing ink. It was obvious that they were specially withdrawn from the bank in advance.
In an era when virtual currency has long been popular, thick and tough cash seems particularly real when held in the hand.
The terminal vibrated, he picked it up and took a look, then turned around and asked, "Huo Yuan said he wanted to return your gift."
Yu Chen held the teacup and sat casually on the sofa. "It's not much money. Three rolls can be stuffed into a sock. It's only 60,000 yuan in total. Use it to buy candy canes for them."
Bai Ling was distracted and typed: [My father told you to buy candy canes...]
wide awake. Backspace, delete "father", and change it to [My husband asked you to buy candy...]
Even weirder. Finally, he gave up and wrote [He said, no need to return the favor, the money is just for you to play with, use it to buy candy canes! ]
The small group cheered and jumped for joy. I don't know which bad chicken or bad gull took the lead, but they started to brush [Thanks Falcon daddy~]
After receiving gifts, it’s time to give gifts.
Bai Ling had actually prepared one a long time ago, but looking at the situation, it seemed a little bit not enough.
He quietly grabbed the egg-laying net bag in his pocket and walked towards the bathroom without making a sound. He still remembered that he had promised the fish in the summer that he would make him eggnog with his own eggs at Christmas.
So these days, he tried his best to replenish his nutrition, hoping to lay an egg.
This morning, he finally felt a sore lower abdomen. He touched it through the thin belly and found it was hard inside, with a slight eggshell shape.
Just quietly make one, make it into eggnog, and tell him after the fish drinks it without knowing it.
Well, let's do it.
To prevent this guy from doing anything perverted again.
"Baby, are you going to lay eggs?" Yu Chen put down the cup, leaned against the armrest of the sofa, and looked at his instantly stiff back with a smile, "Lay eggs for me to eat."
"...That's not the case." Bai Ling said stubbornly, "I just went to the toilet."
"I saw it."
“…”
"Your eggshell is very hard and it keeps rubbing against my eggs. I didn't sleep well last night."
...This pervert! I didn’t sleep well because I was too excited!
Bai Ling gritted his teeth and looked sideways. This man has been having recurring fevers lately and his chin has become sharper, making his features look less elegant and more stern.
He was wearing a grey chunky sweater and his blond hair was tied loosely behind his back with a rubber band, looking very homely. His young face did not weaken his sense of age. Instead, it gave people a sense of dissociation, as if his body and soul did not belong to the same era.
At least he was really gentle and loving when he patted his legs and called his name to let him pass.
Although what he said was completely different.
"Come here, come here, baby," he said, calling Bai Ling kindly, "Come here, I want to talk to you."
Bai Ling hesitated for a while, then moved over doubtfully and sat next to him, with a distance of twenty centimeters between them.
But the mermaid still felt it was not enough.
He rubbed the back of his hand across the surface of the leather sofa, and then, palm up, he handed it to Bai Ling and said softly, "What's the reward toilet for?"
"Down to my hands."
