After seeing everyone off, Ye Qingtao breathed a sigh of relief and returned home exhausted.

Gu Jingming went out on a mission. He left yesterday morning and hasn't returned since.

She was the only one in the room, and it seemed cold and deserted.

Little Black barked and walked around the room.

"Master, do you have any dried meat? Xiao Hei is hungry."

Ye Qingtao originally wanted to sit down and rest for a while, but she didn't expect that she would have to be urged to work by the dog.

She didn't even want to cook dinner by herself, but Xiao Hei wouldn't let her do that.

Under Xiao Hei's urging, Ye Qingtao cooked two dishes, one meat and one vegetable.

Most of the meat went into Xiao Hei's stomach, and he kept the vegetarian food for himself.

It was still early after dinner, so Ye Qingtao thought about it and went to the medical space.

Every time she went to the medical space, she basically had no time to think about other things.

She just needs to operate various instruments to do experiments.

Once I start, I can't stop doing it and I keep working until after eleven o'clock in the evening.

If she wasn't so sleepy, she probably wouldn't have stopped.

I had bad luck today. I failed quite a lot and wasted a lot of materials.

Many materials cannot be replenished with current medical conditions. Ye Qingtao has a headache. What if all the materials are used up and nothing is developed in the end?

She lay down and fell asleep with mixed feelings.

She didn't sleep well at night, and in the morning after washing up and having breakfast, she threw herself into it again.

Ye Qingtao opened the refrigerator to get the ingredients, but unexpectedly found that the place where the ingredients were placed yesterday was now full again.

"What's going on?"

After being shocked, Ye Qingtao immediately called Xiao Hei in.

"Xiao Hei, I clearly used up all the materials in this row yesterday, why is it full again today?"

"Master, the materials in the laboratory can be replenished automatically."

"Why didn't you tell me such important news before?"

Ye Qingtao was shaking with excitement. If the space really had this special function, then she wouldn't have to worry about doing experiments in the future.

"That's because you seldom came to the lab before and didn't trigger this function. I didn't know it at the time."

Xiao Hei's explanation was so reasonable that Ye Qingtao was speechless.

"Okay, okay, you're right. If you develop any new features in the space next time, you must remember to tell me."

Xiao Hei nodded repeatedly, then licked the corner of his mouth with his big tongue, the hint was very obvious.

"Stay there obediently. If today's experiment is successful, the master will not only give you dried meat, but also buy you some big bones to chew on. What do you think?"

Xiao Hei cried out excitedly, and then nodded excitedly.

Ye Qingtao devoted herself to the experiment with peace of mind, while Xiao Hei squatted beside Gu Jingming and waited quietly.

Its mind was constantly thinking about the delicious big bones, and its saliva was flowing out.

Seeing Xiao Hei being so obedient, Ye Qingtao was in a good mood.

Experimentation is a long process and requires sufficient patience.

Ye Qingtao used to have to worry about materials, but now she can start working with confidence.

Another whole day passed like this, and Ye Qingtao didn't even have time to eat dinner.

Xiao Hei, the obedient boy, knew that she was busy with work, so he just stayed quietly by her side.

It didn't complain of being tired or hungry, it just kept watching eagerly.

Ye Qingtao originally wanted to continue the experiment, but seeing Xiao Hei like this, she couldn't bear to let her starve.

Ye Qingtao took out a bag of bones and a bag of meat from the space.

She didn't know how to cook originally, but she learned a lot from Aunt Liu and can now cook simple meals.

After washing the bones, marinate them and then stew them in a pot.

It was tender and fragrant when it came out of the pot, and Xiao Hei's mouth was watering at the smell.

Without Ye Qingtao's request, Xiao Hei immediately brought his bowl from the room.

Ye Qingtao put the hot bones into the bowl. Xiao Hei didn't care about the heat and lowered his head to eat enthusiastically.

After preparing Xiao Hei’s dinner, Ye Qingtao cooked herself a simple dish of stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts.

The amount of food that one person cooks is too little, but it takes a lot of effort to cook each time.

If it weren’t for Xiao Hei’s company, and listening to its exaggerated eating sounds, the house would probably be even more deserted.

Xiao Hei ate too much today and his stomach is so full.

"Xiao Hei, do you want to go out for a walk?"

Ye Qingtao took the rope and prepared to put it around Xiao Hei's neck.

"Master, I am a space spirit pet, not an ordinary dog. I will not bite anyone."

"You have to pretend to go out and play. It would be bad if you scare the children in the family compound."

Ye Qingtao’s reason was very convincing, and Xiao Hei obediently put the head covering over him.

It has always been a sensible dog and is particularly obedient to its owner.

Ye Qingtao led it out of the door. Xiao Hei originally wanted to go to the staff quarters, but Ye Qingtao felt that the quarters were too small and there were too many children playing outside at night, so she didn't feel safe taking a walk.

The most important thing is that I had a falling out with Liu Shuguang's family yesterday. If I meet them on the road, I won't be afraid, but I will just feel a little disgusted when I see them.

The child understood her concerns and nodded obediently and followed her out.

From a distance, the two guards greeted her enthusiastically.

Ye Qingtao also smiled and nodded.

She led Xiao Hei out of the family compound. There were lights on at some distance in the compound, which would not be completely turned off until 12 o'clock at night.

It was pitch black outside. Ye Qingtao held a flashlight in one hand and a dog leash in the other.

The man and the dog walked slowly forward and unknowingly arrived at the gate of the military camp.

Ye Qingtao stopped and glanced inside.

Xiao Hei was originally walking, but when he saw her stop, he also stopped.

"Let's go, we should go back."

Ye Qingtao turned around and was about to leave when someone suddenly called her.

"Qingtao, can I talk to you?"

The man's voice was gentle and calm, and compared to the previous times they met, his attitude was much more humble.

When Ye Qingtao turned around, she saw Lu Yunchuan, who was thinner than before, with a scruffy beard and looked very haggard.

Her brows were slightly furrowed and her body turned away stiffly.

"Lu Yunchuan?"

Ye Qingtao called out his name, and Lu Yunchuan's face lit up with joy.

"I have nothing to talk to you about."

Ye Qingtao turned around and was about to leave, and Lu Yunchuan quickly caught up with her.

"Qingtao, are you really marrying Gu Jingming?"

Lu Yunchuan suddenly spoke, and Ye Qingtao nodded firmly.

"We are married."

"But he has health problems. Even if you marry him, you will be a widow. Is it really worth it to ruin your happiness for the rest of your life just to make me angry?"

This time, Lu Yunchuan did not get angry. Instead, he tried to reason with him seriously.

"Marriage is not just about love between men and women, nor is it for the purpose of procreation. Gu Jingming likes me and treats me well. I also like him and am willing to treat him well. That's enough!"
