Chapter 177
Mu Ling didn't know whether this was possible or not, but she had been a little sensitive about the Death War Beast recently. Anyway, she wanted to verify it first.
Mu Ling told this to Brother Xiang, and Xiang Bie informed Chai Yunyue.
Chai Yunyue was very happy when he received the call from Brother Xiang. When he heard Brother Xiang asking him to do something, he immediately agreed with a nod like an enthusiastic puppy.
Mu Ling sat in the tree house, listening to Chai Yunyue's high-pitched voice on the loudspeaker. She whispered to Brother Xiang, "His expression changes so quickly."
Category: "..."
Chai Yunyue: “…”
When Chai Yunyue heard Mu Ling's voice, he choked up. After a while, he asked, "Xiang, Brother Xiang, are you with...her?"
This "she" is very subtle.
Xiang Bie said calmly: "Yeah."
Chai Yunyue was silent.
Mu Ling was unhappy: "Why, can't you be with me? Chief Chai, I was the one who bandaged your leg."
Chai Yunyue: “…”
That being said, but...
The extremely indecent voice of Xiang Mimi came back to my mind...
Chai Yunyue shuddered and said humbly, "Of course, it's just that I didn't expect..."
Mu Ling muttered, "I'm surprised by this. Now, I'll trouble you with the red bean matter."
Chai Yunyue immediately said, "Of course, it's no trouble!"
His tone was even more serious than when he spoke to Brother Xiang.
After a few more words, Chai Yunyue hung up the phone in a hurry, then looked at the clock on the wall with sweat all over his forehead - 12:30 in the evening.
Hey, at this time, they are still together.
What are they going to do?
I really didn't expect that he found his brother, but he actually had another sister-in-law...
And judging from the situation, my sister-in-law still has the final say in the family...
After wiping the sweat from his forehead, Chai Yunyue was ready to behave himself from now on.
After hanging up the call, at the tree house, Mu Ling talked to Brother Xiang about the third service area.
"The nursery is already full with ten war beasts. If the ones in the front don't fit into their cages, there won't be room for the ones that arrive after the second batch opens. So we have to start planning for a third service area. I've thought about the location a bit and have two spots in mind. Can you help me analyze which one is best?"
Mu Ling turned on the computer, clicked on the map, and drew two circles on it.
Mu Ling pointed to the circle on the left and said, "This area is large and flat. There's a water source and river nearby. The environment is nice, but it's too far away. It's still over 30 kilometers from the second service area. It's too remote. Tourists have to transfer at another station, which is a bit of a waste of time."
Mu Ling pointed to the circle on the right. "This one is a little smaller than the previous one, but it's less than two kilometers away from the second service area. This way, water and sewage systems can be directly connected to the equipment in the second service area, greatly reducing development costs. And because it's so close, we can also build a mountain road with a small bridge and flowing water, allowing tourists to walk there and experience the pleasure of walking through the jungle. Of course, those who don't want to walk can also take a car. Since it's so close, you can see some of the buildings in the third service area from the second service area, which will also greatly attract tourists."
Mu Ling became more and more excited as she spoke, and she even gestured on the map, outlining the blueprint she had imagined.
When she had almost finished speaking, she didn't hear any response from the man next to her. She couldn't help but feel strange and turned to look over.
When she looked at him, she met his deep eyes.
The rest of the words were instantly stuck in her throat. Mu Ling froze and looked at Brother Xiang.
The tree house is really small, which means that if two adults want to stay in this small house at the same time, they have to be very close to each other.
The air was fine just now, but for some reason, it suddenly became slightly hot.
Mu Ling's eyes flickered, she picked at her nails, and muttered, "You, why are you looking at me? Look at the map."
Xiang Bie didn't move and continued to look at her.
His eyes were too revealing. Mu Ling had already seen what he was up to. She bit her lip and lowered her voice, "No... There are surveillance cameras... They must be peeking again..."
Mu Ling no longer has any trust in her employees!
Xiang Bie said softly, "No." He moved closer and said, "I asked Wei Li to lock the monitoring room."
Mu Ling: “…” So you have it all planned!
Mu Ling didn't believe it: "Brother Wei will definitely abuse his power for personal gain! He is definitely capable of doing such a thing..."
Before Mu Ling finished speaking, Xiang Bie moved closer to her. Now, the distance between them became too close, so close that they could feel each other's breath... He said, "He doesn't dare."
Mu Ling struggled: "But... well..."
The slightly warm and soft touch suddenly pressed against her lips. Mu Ling clenched her fists instantly, and her heart beat rapidly unconsciously!
The cool wind blew through the woods, and the crescent moon in the sky shone with a bright light.
On the grass below, herbivores were still eating night grass comfortably.
A spotted python swam and swam, and finally swam under the tree house.
It climbed up the tree trunk, but when it reached the door, it couldn't get in because the door was closed.
The python was a little unwilling, so it slowly wrapped its body around the tree house, and then used the tip of its tail to slam the door.
"Someone is coming!" A panicked female voice sounded from inside.
Unfortunately, the python had no hearing and could not recognize the female voice. It just spit out its tongue and sniffed the familiar scent.
Yes, snakes rely on their tongues to develop their sense of smell. When the snake's tongue is extended, it will pick up some material particles. When it retracts, it extends the tongue into the small cavity above the mouth, which is the snake's nose. After the particles are transmitted into the nose, the snake can smell the odor.
Snakes have very poor eyesight, and almost all snakes are nearsighted. Snakes also do not have external ears and cannot hear human voices, so snakes perceive the surrounding environment through their tongues and vibrations of their abdomens.
Speaking of abdominal vibrations, this is also the reason why Xiaohua was able to discover six war beasts underground on the planet Nibra. Other animals rely purely on smell or hearing to perceive the environment, but the bank's basement door was sealed at the time, and the smell and sound were isolated. Other animals could not perceive it. Only the python could rely on the vibration of the ground to know the situation underground, so it was able to find the six war beasts.
And now, Xiaohua is also looking for Mu Ling through its sense of smell and vibration.
I smelled Mu Ling's breath and knew that the vibration frequency was the highest here, so this was it, there was no escape.
The python continued to knock on the door, and there was chaos inside again. Then, the wooden door finally opened.
The python's big head went straight in.
"Oh!" Mu Ling's cheeks were flushed and she covered her mouth with the back of her hand. She thought there was really someone outside, but when she looked, it turned out to be a snake!
"Xiaohua!" Mu Ling muttered and hugged the python's head.
Xiang Bie's expression was calm at this time, but if you looked closely, you could see that his ears and neck were extremely red, as if they were almost cooked.
Mu Ling's cheeks and lips were also red, and she glanced at Brother Xiang secretly.
Xiang Bie coughed lightly and said, "I'll go down first."
As he said this, he pushed the python's thick tail away and walked out of the tree house.
After Xiang Bie left, the room became more spacious. Xiaohua happily swam her whole body in and clung to Mu Ling.
Mu Ling suddenly fell onto the cushions, hugged the python tightly, buried her face in the python's slippery body, and muttered: "Xiaohua, have you ever been in love?"
Xiaohua had no idea what nonsense Mu Ling was talking about. Its tail was swinging and tightly wrapped around Mu Ling.
Mu Ling chuckled again, and then stopped struggling. She just held the python, her eyes looking out the door...
-
That night, Brother Xiang did not come back, so Mu Ling slept in the tree house until the next morning when she was awakened by the cries of animals.
Mu Ling stretched lazily, then reached to the side and touched a cold python coiled like a mosquito coil.
She yawned, got up, and stuck her head out to look under the tree.
When she saw this, she was stunned. There were so many animals coming down.
It was probably because it was too late last night and they didn't notice her coming. They smelled her scent this morning and came.
Mu Ling climbed down, and the brown bear immediately came up to sniff Mu Ling. Other animals also rushed over, some nudging Mu Ling, and some licking Mu Ling.
Mu Ling touched them one by one, then randomly caught a few animals to look at their old injuries.
Some were lame, some were slightly blind, and all these fighting beasts were in tatters. Even the brown bears that looked quite normal were severely malnourished.
Mu Ling played with the animals for a while, and suddenly heard footsteps behind her.
She turned her head and saw Xiang Bie walking down the hillside carrying a bucket.
The bucket was filled with mountain spring water. Xiang Bie placed the bucket on a large rock and said to Mu Ling, "I'll go get a towel from the car."
Xiang Bie came back with the compressed towel and saw Mu Ling washing her face with clean water, but she had a hard time doing it herself, so Xiang Bie hurried over to help her hold the bucket.
Mu Ling finished washing up quickly, and then she helped Xiang Bie hold the bucket so that he could wash as well.
Xiang Bie said, "I washed at the stream."
Mu Ling said "Oh" and let go of the bucket.
Xiang Bie frowned, pressed the back of her hand, and said, "I'll wash it again."
Mu Ling: “…”
Mu Ling wanted to laugh: "Why wash it again if I've already washed it?"
Xiang Bie observed her expression carefully.
Mu Ling tilted her head and smiled at him: "Hmm?"
Xiang Bie was silent for a moment, then said, "I like to be clean, wash it again."
As he said that, he asked Mu Ling to help him hold the bucket, as he insisted on washing again.
Mu Ling had no choice but to help him hold the bucket, but she couldn't help but burst out laughing.
When Xiang Bie heard this, his ears turned red again and he quickly wiped his face.
Mu Ling still had a lot of things to do today. After washing up, she was about to leave. Before leaving, she asked again: "So, which of the two plots of land is better? You haven't told me yet?"
Xiang Bie said: "You have thought so much about the second piece, you obviously like this one more."
Mu Ling smiled and said, "Yes, this is it. I'm leaving now."
Mu Ling got in the car and started the engine.
But just as she was about to turn the car, Xiang Bie behind her spoke again: "Mu Ling."
Mu Ling was stunned and looked at him from the car window: "Huh?"
Xiang Bie stood among a group of animals. The animals looked at her reluctantly, and he also looked at her reluctantly. He and they miraculously became one.
Mu Ling asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiang Bie was silent for a moment, then pursed his lips and said, "Are you coming tonight?"
Mu Ling: “…”
Mu Ling stepped on the accelerator, turned the direction, and drove the car directly into the mountain road.
It wasn't until she drove another meter or two that a clear female voice floated out of the car window: "Come!"
The car disappeared completely in a short while.
Later, Xiang Bie exhaled, looked at the group of animals around him, and said with lingering fear: "She is still willing to come, so I should not have performed...badly...last night, right?"
He had been showing his affection this morning, watching her expression, fearing she might be dissatisfied. After all, it was their first kiss...
He really has no confidence...
