Chapter 93 Chapter 93 "No," Bai Tianming refused...
"No," Bai Tianming refused. "My friend is still in the ward next door. I just came to take a look. Now that I've seen him, there's no need to go back in."
Jacob frowned, a little disappointed, but still said, "Okay."
He handed the apple he had picked from the Garden of Eden to Bai Tianming and asked tentatively, "Is this for your friend in the hospital bed?"
Bai Tianming blinked and answered truthfully, "This is for another friend, he's not here."
Jacob suddenly felt a little happy.
He was not happy that Bai Tianming might have two friends, but he felt that if Bai Tianming could be so nice to a stranger like Enoch, then no matter what happened to him, he would not be that bad.
He felt relieved yet a little sad. He tentatively asked Bai Tianming, "Are you close to that friend?"
Bai Tianming didn't know how to answer for a moment. If they said they had a good relationship, Abel was actually very cold and indifferent to him. If they said they had a bad relationship, Abel's shadowy side was quite open and sincere to Bai Tianming.
After hesitating for a moment, Bai Tianming replied calmly, "Normally."
Jacob nodded doubtfully, "Really?" A simple friend coming to Heaven specifically to ask for an apple from the Garden of Eden? That didn't sound like a simple friend.
"Yes." Bai Tianming nodded emphatically. He didn't know whether it was clear before or whether it would be clear in the future, but it was clear now.
Isaac finished his inspection and walked back slowly. Seeing Jacob standing near Bai Tianming, he smiled and said hello, "You've already been in? Why don't you rest inside?"
Bai Tianming blinked his eyes and said, "I didn't go in. I just took a look. I'm not sleepy yet, and I don't need to rest."
Isaac nodded, not saying whether he believed it or not, but just smiled: "My examination is fine. I also want to follow you later, so it should be okay, right?"
When the day dawned, he planned to wait for Enoch to wake up and then go find some white clouds. Once he had found them, he would leave. Since Isaac was not needed anywhere, he said, "You should go back to the botanical garden."
Isaac's expression changed: "Do you hate me?"
"Not really." Bai Tianming was very calm.
"Then why?" Isaac frowned.
"Why should I bring you along for no reason? You have your own place. What's the point of following me?" Bai Tianming frowned and asked him.
"You are my master," Isaac said, gritting his teeth, extremely determined. "I must follow you! With me, we can do anything, and I won't affect you. As for my original position, now that I'm awake, there's no need to go back. Following you is the natural thing for me."
Bai Tianming shook his head and did not comment on his answer. He was too lazy to care about him and let him do as he pleased. Isaac remained silent.
Jacob invited Bai Tianming to his home. He said, "After all, the hospital isn't a place for a proper rest. Although I can't give you the cloud you want right away, my terrace is a good place to choose one."
Bai Tianming thought about it, then nodded doubtfully: "That's fine."
After Enoch finished the examination and woke up, he learned about this and wanted to go with Bai Tianming.
"Are you sure? I think you still need to rest." Bai Tianming's eyes fell on his pale face. "If you don't want to stay in the hospital, you can go home first."
Enoch shook his head, very firmly: "I want to stay with you."
Bai Tianming raised his eyebrows: "Are you sure?" Why is this necessary?
"I'm sure." Enoch nodded heavily.
Finally, Enoch and Isaac followed Bai Tianming and went to Jacob's villa together.
Jacob arranged rooms for Bai Tianming and the other two people. He then took Bai Tianming to see the sunny terrace and asked, "Do you need anything else here?"
Although you may not need to stay on the terrace for a long time during the day, if you really need to, it is better to tell us early.
Bai Tianming looked at the terrace. It was scorched by the sun, and the arched railings extending outwards were white. At first glance, it looked like an afternoon tea coffee cup with a handle.
"Prepare a chair for me," Bai Tianming squinted his eyes and looked at it. He felt that he was being burned by the sun just by looking at it. He looked away and replied, "Just put it next to me. I will drag it over when I need it."
Jacob nodded, then moved a chair from the utility room and placed it in the shadow behind the wall next to the terrace. It was a green rattan chair that looked very cool.
Small pink flowers dotted around the edge of the chair look like they've just bloomed, giving people an overflowing feeling of vitality.
Bai Tianming had no objection to the chair, so he nodded and thanked him.
Jacob waved his hand. "You're welcome." He then asked, "Would you like to have dinner at my place, too? Or afternoon tea? If you need it, I'll have someone prepare it. If you'd rather rest, I'll have them leave you alone and do something else."
"Afternoon tea," Bai Tianming hesitated. He was very interested in afternoon tea, but the sun was so strong that he felt it was too hot. It was not suitable for eating or watching the clouds, but it was very suitable for resting. After thinking for a while, he said, "How about later?"
Jacob nodded. "Afternoon tea is originally at three o'clock. If it's a little later, how about moving it to four? If it's later, it's dinner."
"Then let's make it four o'clock." Bai Tianming glanced at the sun next to him. The sun was still very hot, burning on the ground. It looked like a fuel bottle that had just exploded and still had some time to burn.
Jacob set an alarm for himself at four o'clock, said hello to Bai Tianming, and turned to his study. He had no intention of leaving the villa.
Because it will take time to rush back on the road. If you encounter any unexpected delays, you may not be able to make it back. Instead of going through so much trouble, it is better to do it in the study.
Anyway, he didn't have anything that required him to go out.
Most of the other angels couldn't control him either.
It won't affect anything.
But as luck would have it, he had not been in the study for a while when he received a meeting invitation. He accepted it, and the conference projection appeared in front of him. He saw Joshua among the members attending the meeting.
Jacob was startled and thought to himself: Bai Tianming is in the villa, so it is better not to have any conflict with Joshua for the time being, lest Joshua rush over, discover Bai Tianming, and cause trouble for him again.
They didn't get along in the first place, and if Bai Tianming became a variable, things would only get worse. He wasn't afraid of getting into trouble.
But if he gets in trouble again and can't hide from Bai Tianming, it will do him no good, so why should he get involved?
After thinking for a while, Jacob's face was as calm as water. He just glanced quickly at Joshua who was sitting in the meeting seat, then retracted his eyes as if nothing had happened and waited for the meeting to be held.
Joshua said with a sullen face, "The Great Race's machines have recently reacted. Some of us may be about to be replaced or have already been replaced. Remember to pay attention to the people around you.
Secondly, the stars in the sky have changed. I'm afraid you'll need to ask an astrologer for the specific situation.
Also, I sensed something unusual with the plants in the botanical garden. Who should report it?"
Although he was asking, he was looking directly at Jacob who was sitting in the meeting. The other angels blinked and followed him, looking at Jacob.
All the attendees looked at Jacob, and a silent pressure fell on his shoulders.
Obviously, what Joshua meant was, I know you are related to this matter, and I know you are involved. If you report it now, there is nothing wrong. If you hide something, don't blame me for investigating you later.
Jacob thought about what to say. He wanted to make things clear without exposing Bai Tianming or clashing with Joshua. It would be best to say as little as possible. With no expression on his face, he slowly said, "I'll report."
At the same time, Bai Tianming returned to the room Jacob had arranged for him, closed the door and windows, and slightly pulled the curtains, which blocked the scorching sun outside and also brought in shadows.
Bai Tianming withdrew his hand and turned around, and saw the gloomy Abel standing behind him, motionless in the shadows, like a pillar standing in dark water.
Bai Tianming blinked and asked him with a smile, "Why did you suddenly appear?"
Abel was silent for a moment, then asked him, "Do you recognize who I am?"
Bai Tianming nodded and replied, "I recognize you. You are the shadow part, right?"
Abel smiled and said, "Yes."
"Are you here to get apples?" Bai Tianming took the apple out of his pocket and asked him speculatively.
Abel restrained his smile and shook his head: "No."
Bai Tianming handed him the apple and said, "Then keep it for now."
Abel took one look at the apple and put it away.
Bai Tianming grabbed his wrist and felt his pulse suddenly quicken. He smiled and asked, "Are you here to call me to task?"
Abel's face flushed red, and he didn't say anything for a while. He just tried to pull his hand back silently, but he didn't have enough strength, so he didn't succeed. The color of his face became even redder, like a cherry that had just been rained on.
It's not that he can't use his strength, but he's worried that if he uses too much force, he might accidentally hurt Bai Tianming. He can't control the strength, so he can only be gentle.
In fact, he knew very well that Bai Tianming was stronger than him and that nothing would happen if they were pulling each other. But knowing was one thing, and really asking him to compete with Bai Tianming was another.
However, with such little strength, he definitely couldn't pull his hand back from Bai Tianming's hand. Therefore, he was almost angry and whispered to Bai Tianming like an order: "Let go!"
Bai Tianming loosened his hand, stared at him with a half-smile, and said slowly, "Are you really here to call me to task?"
