Cheng Cheng and the Cicada
Chapter 26 The Tug-of-War of Three Vs
The Elfa minivan was parked downstairs in the residential complex.
After Lin Xian went upstairs and returned home, he pushed his luggage into a corner of the living room, then took a shower and changed his clothes.
The outfit he had been wearing was from his trip to Copenhagen and he’d already worn it for two days. It wouldn't be polite to wear it to someone else's house.
After drying his hair in front of the mirror and fixing his hairstyle a bit.
Lin Xian stared at himself in the mirror, lost in thought…
Since that terrifying thing happened in this bathroom, Lin Xian had tried twice more in front of the mirror at 00:42.
But both times, nothing happened.
As always, Lin Xian made a move, and the Lin Xian in the mirror made the same move; identical, without any delay, and without any supernatural occurrence.
It seems…
The things that happened at 00:42 that night cannot be replicated.
Although he understood that it was definitely not a coincidence, but must have been a carefully designed "Genius Club invitation ceremony" by Huang Que, or his future self, or someone else.
But Lin Xian sometimes still had expectations, wondering if that kind of thing could happen again, if he could get something else from the mirror.
This idea was a bit greedy.
But after thinking about it, since he got the Genius Club invitation from the mirror, doesn't that mean that this kind of bizarre event, the strange use of space-time cracks and 00:42, is also related to the Genius Club?
"That is to say…"
Lin Xian winked at himself in the mirror, and the Lin Xian in the mirror winked back, opening his mouth to say:
"When I answer the three Genius Club questions correctly and finally get the qualification to join the club… will I still be able to get something from the mirror?"
Lin Xian and the Lin Xian in the mirror shook their heads together.
Everything is uncertain.
But in any case, this road must be taken.
If he wants to know all the truth, know all the secrets, know everything right and wrong in this world… the only way is to join the Genius Club and look back at space-time from the height of the river of history to get the real answer.
"Alright, let's go."
Lin Xian straightened his collar one last time, turned off the bathroom light, went out, and went downstairs.
The driver was waiting in the Elfa minivan.
Seeing Lin Xian coming out of the stairwell, he immediately opened the rear electric door.
"Xiao Li, let's go, to Zhao Yingjun's residential complex."
After buckling his seat belt, Lin Xian told the driver, Xiao Li, the destination.
The vehicle started steadily.
Leaving the residential complex.
…
Knock knock.
Lin Xian knocked on the door of Zhao Yingjun's house.
"Coming~" "Woof…"
Standing outside the door, he heard Zhao Yingjun's voice, and… a dog bark that was completely listless, faint, barely audible, and without any momentum.
Even using "bark" to describe it was not quite right, it was more like a whimper.
Click.
The door opened, Zhao Yingjun took a step back, looked at Lin Xian and smiled slightly:
"Come in quickly, Lin Xian, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Having said that, she turned her head and looked at the wilted dandelion on the ground:
"VV, look who's here? Lin Xian is here to see you."
On the wooden floor.
The Pomeranian, whose fur was no longer standing up, seemed to be really in low spirits.
It was not very energetic.
Its eyes were also a little swollen.
Hearing Lin Xian's name, it raised its head with difficulty and slowly, looked at the tall man standing at the door, pursed its lips, and cried aggrievedly:
"V…呜呜…" (v…wuwu…)
Its speech was slurred, and its whole body was trembling.
This frightened Zhao Yingjun.
What.
Did it backfire?
Originally, she wanted Lin Xian to come to her house to comfort VV, to cheer it up and make it happy.
VV used to be very happy to see Lin Xian… but why today, as soon as it saw him, did it cry so aggrievedly?
"VV it…" Zhao Yingjun turned her head, wanting to explain to Lin Xian.
"It's okay, I'll handle it."
Lin Xian interrupted Zhao Yingjun, stepped directly over the threshold, and walked into the entryway.
He gently squatted down.
He stroked VV's head with his right hand and asked softly:
"VV, what's wrong?"
"V~~v…"
The Pomeranian seemed to be trying to communicate with Lin Xian, constantly making whimpering sounds.
Lin Xian naturally couldn't understand.
But…
"Are you sad?"
He looked into the Pomeranian's eyes.
Emotional transmission doesn't always require language; he had long believed that emotions can transcend everything, space-time, time, the universe, and even… race.
The Pomeranian seemed to understand.
It stopped whimpering.
Instead, it raised its head and looked into Lin Xian's eyes.
The two, man and dog, were silent.
This…
This tacit understanding made Zhao Yingjun stunned again.
Whose dog is VV, anyway?
Should she really let Lin Xian take it away? Why does it feel like this dog has been treated unfairly here and is complaining to Lin Xian?
"I'll make you a cup of tea, a relative from Yunnan sent me a Pu'er tea cake some time ago, it's better to boil black tea, the taste is richer."
Having said that, Zhao Yingjun closed the door and walked inside:
"The tea set at home hasn't been used for a while, I'll wash it and make you a cup of tea. You can talk to VV and play for a while first… see if it has any effect."
As soon as she finished speaking.
Zhao Yingjun had already walked past the corner of the living room and went to the independent kitchen inside.
Lin Xian simply sat down on a low stool, then picked up the limp VV on the ground, put it on his lap, and stroked the fur on the back of its neck:
"To be honest… VV, I really want to know, what are you sad about; I also really hope to understand what you are saying. But, I often hear people say that dogs are more sensitive to emotions than humans. Just like they are more sensitive to taste and sound than humans… often dogs can empathize more than humans."
"That's why many people think that dogs can understand what humans say, but humans can't understand the language of dogs. So… now that I can't understand what you're saying, then you listen to me."
VV on his lap wiggled its ears:
"V~~~"
Making a short and lingering sound.
Lin Xian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Ah…
This dog is really becoming an essence.
However, listening to the clear bark, it seems that cross-species communication is still somewhat effective.
"VV, I don't know what nightmare you had."
Lin Xian touched the soft fur like a dandelion, looked ahead, and looked at the high heels next to VV's food bowl.
Like looking at an old friend, like looking at memories;
Like talking to VV, but also like talking to himself:
"I also often have nightmares, especially the nightmares I have now are terrible, I can't even move. Not only in dreams, but also in reality, many of my friends have left me, my teachers, my classmates, my friends, and even… people who should be very close to me."
He lowered his head and looked at the Pomeranian on his lap who also raised its head:
"I have a friend, also called VV."
Lin Xian smiled gently:
"It's very good, although when we were together, I always complained that it was not strong enough and complained that it was a drama queen who didn't work. But… many people and many things are like this, we must separate from each other and never see each other again… to truly realize how much time we wasted before, how many opportunities to be together we wasted, and how many opportunities for peaceful conversation we wasted."
"Do you have such friends? VV."
Lin Xian raised his legs a little, bringing VV closer to him, hugging it and holding it in his arms:
"You should have them too. The things that can really make people sad in this world are not the loss of money and power, nor the gains and losses of success. The things that can really make people sad… are always the departure of relatives and friends."
"Did you… also dream that a friend left? On that night?"
Lin Xian felt that VV's body in his arms was trembling again:
"If so… then it should be our mutual friend, and I am just as sad. It's just that there are too many partings for me. I don't know if I'm a little numb, or a little used to it, I always feel… that I can no longer cry for this kind of thing like you."
"But VV, maybe it's our mutual friend, she told me that not all stories have to be mutual love and grow old together to be a comedy. She said that even if she had to choose again a thousand times, ten thousand times, she would not regret it, and she would gladly do so."
"She is quite a bit older than me, knows a lot of things, and has experienced a lot of things. She taught me a lot of knowledge and also gave me many lessons. Now I feel… that the last lesson she gave me, seems to have taught me the most precious thing, not the two rules that might be enough to turn defeat into victory. But…"
Lin Xian pursed his lips, stroked VV's head, and said softly:
"[But like the Little Mermaid, brave, kind, strong perseverance, and a spirit of self-sacrifice. ]"
"Perhaps this is the real last lesson. Do you know why, VV? Because… what she wanted to teach was not an excellent student, but a qualified leader."
He lowered his head again, looking at the exceptionally quiet Pomeranian who was blinking its eyes:
"VV, do you know what a qualified leader is?"
"V?"
The Pomeranian straightened up in Lin Xian's arms, looking at the man in front of him with puzzled eyes.
It seemed to understand, but also didn't understand.
But…
It seemed…
To really feel something.
"Not regretting past failures, not being confused by wrong paths, not regretting lost time, not stagnating for leaving friends…"
The man supporting its arm gradually became taut:
"Not being afraid of the enemy's strength, not being discouraged by inevitable sacrifices, not retreating for anything, not being timid for everything."
Lin Xian clenched his right fist, placed it on his chest, and bumped fists with the Pomeranian VV's paw:
"[Never look back, always look forward. ]"
He smiled slightly:
"VV, it's too early to be listless and lose fighting spirit now. We all have friends who have left, but we still have living partners. We can't stop, we must protect them, we must cheer up, we must become stronger."
"In fact, we are all VV, although I don't know… why I also became VV in a certain future, but since we are called this name, we must live up to the legend and responsibility of this name."
"Let's make a promise."
He hooked his little finger around the Pomeranian's paw, placed it on his fingertip, looked into its wide eyes, and said solemnly:
"Let's protect Zhao Yingjun together, let's protect this world together; find the lost friends, and kill the evil enemies. Let the three VVs together… become the true saviors!"
"Woof!"
VV seemed to be infected, and its long-lost voice became clear.
Lin Xian chuckled, touching its head:
"That's a promise, a promise between men."
Having said that.
Lin Xian was stunned.
He supported the Pomeranian's armpits with both hands, spread it out in a large character, raised it in the air in front of him, and looked down—
"V~~~~" The Pomeranian let out a shy whimper.
"Okay."
Lin Xian confirmed it, it's female.
He re-hooked up with the Pomeranian and reiterated again:
"This is a promise between VVs! Whether it's a human, a dog, or artificial intelligence, we must abide by it, and do what we say."
"Woof woof!"
The Pomeranian made a confident roar, stood up on Lin Xian's lap, and wagged its tail.
Da da da da.
A burst of rapid high-heeled footsteps, Zhao Yingjun quickly ran over from the kitchen. She looked at the smiling Lin Xian with a surprised face, looking at the VV wagging its tail, and its ears stood up again:
"Just now… was that VV barking?"
"Woof woof! Woof woof woof woof!"
VV jumped down from Lin Xian's lap, squatted in front of Zhao Yingjun as if solemnly swearing, straightened up, and its wilted white fur re-stood up, turning into a huge dandelion:
"Woof!!"
Its slightly hoarse voice roared with all its might.
"Oh, that's really great…"
Zhao Yingjun finally breathed a sigh of relief, smiled relaxedly and easily, and hurriedly squatted down and picked up the Pomeranian.
Holding it in her arms, stroking its head:
"You really scared me to death, VV! Making me worry for so many days… but, it's good that you're better, it's more lovely to be noisy."
After rubbing it.
Zhao Yingjun raised her head, looking at Lin Xian with light in her eyes:
"Thank you so much, Lin Xian, look, I told you, you have a lot of face in VV's eyes, it really takes you to come forward."
"What magical magic did you use? How did you coax VV to be good before I even boiled a pot of water? Is there any skill you can share?"
Lin Xian stood up from the low stool and spread his hands:
"If there was, I would really like to teach you. But actually… actually I don't know the principle, I just hugged it and talked for a while, like talking to myself, and it seemed like it really understood."
"And then… then it cheered up. It's quite magical, I think what's magical is not me, but your little dog, it may really have become an essence."
Zhao Yingjun lowered her head, looking at VV and shaking her head with a smile:
"It's not becoming an essence, according to me, it just likes you, that's why it's like this."
"Me?" Lin Xian pointed to himself.
Zhao Yingjun nodded.
Looking at Lin Xian with a smile:
"I think it might just miss you. It's been so long since you met, it just misses you. For a little dog that likes you, it likes to listen to whatever you say, and it thinks everything you say is right; the point is not what you say, but who says these words."
"Just like you said, you just talked to yourself for a while, and it listened very carefully. But in the past few days, I have also said a lot to it, and the veterinarian has also said a lot to it, and it completely ignores it, even presses down its ears, and its face is full of expressions that it doesn't want to listen to."
"It really likes you, because it likes you, so even if you just recite a poem to it, I guess it can listen with relish, and will also think carefully… whether there is any deep meaning in this poem you recite, what is the allegory, what is the hidden meaning in it."
…
Listening to Zhao Yingjun's words, Lin Xian suddenly remembered what the Artificial (Qing) Emotional (Gan) Intel (Da) ligence (Shi) VV once said:
"Making girls happy is a very simple thing, it just depends on whether you are willing to."
The super artificial intelligence VV at that time was very understanding:
"For a girl who likes you, everything you do is right, and everything you do is romantic. Even if you make a ring for her with an aluminum pull tab, fold an airplane for her with colored paper, buy a Kongming lantern for a few dollars and let it off with her…"
"These are not difficult things, as long as a woman likes you, everything you do is right, you don't have to worry about doing anything wrong at all. What's right is right, and what's wrong is also right, they will conquer themselves."
Looking at it this way.
Dogs and people are the same, sure enough, in this world, emotion is enough to transcend species and transcend everything.
Zhao Yingjun didn't notice Lin Xian's daze, and continued:
"So… Lin Xian, if you have time in the future, come home and see VV more often. Didn't you also say that you have liked puppies since you were a child and wanted to raise one, but you couldn't raise one because your mother was allergic to dog hair? If you don't mind… just treat VV as your dog, anyway, it's so close to you, it definitely doesn't mind."
"V~~~~"
The Pomeranian in her arms made a sweet and well-behaved sound again.
Lin Xian smiled helplessly.
What he said about liking puppies in the first place… was just a lie he made up to get Zhao Yingjun's words out of her.
Unexpectedly, it came true, and later he really liked the puppy VV a little bit.
Counting now.
Huang Que has lied to him a lot, and he has also lied to Zhao Yingjun a lot since he wanted to peek at Zhao Yingjun's invitation.
Back and forth, it's even now.
Yes.
He still made a profit.
He has an extra loyal dog lackey out of thin air, a real dog lackey.
"I really didn't expect you to coax VV to be good so quickly."
Zhao Yingjun turned her head and looked at the water-boiling teapot in the independent kitchen on the other side:
"I thought it would take a long time… then in that case, it's just time for dinner, why don't we go out to eat?"
"That Beijing restaurant is also something I learned about recently, I've eaten there twice myself, and the taste is quite authentic, similar to the taste I ate in the imperial capital when I was a child. It's been a long time since I left home, and it's really nostalgic to eat the taste of my hometown."
Lin Xian nodded:
"I'm okay with anything, I can eat anything."
He did stay in the Astronaut Training Center in the imperial capital for several months some time ago, but he ate a healthy and nutritious diet, but there was no "authentic Beijing flavor", so let's make up for it here.
It just so happens that Zhao Yingjun is not wearing home clothes, so the two can go out directly.
Zhao Yingjun filled VV's food bowl with dog food, and was about to go out.
"V~~~~~~"
The Pomeranian bit Lin Xian's shoelaces and wouldn't let go. It followed Lin Xian wherever he went. If he walked a little faster, it would directly pull off Lin Xian's tied shoelaces. ?
Lin Xian and Zhao Yingjun looked down at VV.
"VV."
Zhao Yingjun squatted down, looking at the Pomeranian:
"Do you want to go too?"
"Woof!"
"The restaurant is not a place for you to eat, you can't eat human food, it's very salty, and there will be tear stains on your eyes."
"Ooh woof!"
Zhao Yingjun helplessly raised her head, looking at Lin Xian:
"Why don't we… if you don't mind, we'll take VV with us? It's just recovering its emotions, it's better to stabilize it, I'm afraid that if we leave, it will be as lonely as it was that night."
"Of course, let's take it with us."
The two people and one dog got into the elevator and went downstairs.
Lin Xian opened the electric sliding door for Zhao Yingjun from the outside, and then let Zhao Yingjun, who was holding the Pomeranian, get in the car first and sit in the seat on the left.
Then Lin Xian got into the car, sat in the seat on the right by the door, and closed the electric sliding door.
VV skillfully jumped off Zhao Yingjun's lap, lay down under the folding footrest of the seat, licking its paws.
Because Lin Xian's car and Zhao Yingjun's car are both the same model of Elfa, VV was familiar with it and directly found its special seat.
"It used to like lying here."
Zhao Yingjun buckled her seat belt, turned her head and looked at Lin Xian:
"I guess whenever you take VV home, it won't miss me, it must be happy to stay there."
"That won't happen." Lin Xian said with a smile:
"It's never left you before, and doesn't know the taste of parting. If it really separates for two days, it will know that it misses you. Dogs and people are the same, they don't know how to cherish it when they have it, and they only know it's precious when they lose it."
"I hope so."
Zhao Yingjun blinked her eyes:
"But even if it's happy to stay there, I don't think there's anything wrong with it, I'm more at ease with it in your place."
Having said that, she turned her head to look at the driver in front:
"Xiao Li, go to Xibei Road."
"Okay, Director Zhao!" The driver immediately replied.
Lin Xian then realized.
In fact…
Xiao Li, like Wang Ge, is also Zhao Yingjun's person, and was brought from MX company together!
Damn, he is surrounded by Zhao Yingjun.
But Xiao Li is indeed a good person.
He is also from the professional military driver class, and used to drive for the vice president of MX company. Later, Wang Ge felt that Lin Xian's driver must be someone trustworthy and reliable… and was worried about finding and training someone new, so he directly discussed it with Zhao Yingjun and transferred Xiao Li to Rhein company.
To be fair, Xiao Li is worthy of being from the military, and his confidentiality work is very good. Lin Xian believes that he will definitely not report to Zhao Yingjun.
For example, Xiao Li was fully aware of his trip to Copenhagen, and even knew when he went to the imperial capital and when he returned to the East China Sea… but Zhao Yingjun obviously didn't know these things.
This is also something that Lin Xian is very relieved about Xiao Li.
The boss's driver is the closest to the boss and has access to the most secrets, so he must keep his mouth shut. Xiao Li has done a really good job in this regard.
So, it's not difficult to guess…
Every time he appears in Rhein company, Wang Ge must have reported it to Zhao Yingjun.
It's not considered reporting, after all, it's not a secret, and Wang Ge and Zhao Yingjun are very familiar. Moreover… Wang Ge secretly revealed to him as early as when he was in MX company that Zhao Yingjun wanted to promote him as a secretary.
Wang Ge is indeed not a very discreet person, but he has a good heart.
…
Half an hour later, they arrived at the Beijing restaurant, which was simply decorated and looked very old.
The gate and exterior decoration are very grand, and the redwood style is very historical.
Zhao Yingjun ordered a few signature dishes, and then let Lin Xian look at the menu; Lin Xian saw that Zhao Yingjun had already ordered almost enough for the two of them to eat, so he didn't order any more.
After a while, a few simple home-cooked dishes were served.
"Try it quickly, see if it suits your taste."
VV was lying quietly on the carpet in the small private room, Zhao Yingjun picked up her chopsticks, and motioned Lin Xian to eat first:
"There is an ancient saying that 'there is no delicious food in Beijing, it all depends on being particular; good meat is not eaten, but the offal is used.' In fact, as a Beijing native, I don't quite agree with this sentence. Although many famous traditional Beijing snacks do use a lot of pork offal, such as fried liver, stewed lungs, large intestines, etc… which look a bit heavy."
"But in fact, Beijing cuisine, as a branch of Shandong cuisine, still has many good dishes. You can try these, although they all look like home-cooked dishes, it still tests the chef's level to cook them well."
Lin Xian would naturally not be restrained and polite in front of Zhao Yingjun. So he didn't decline and started to taste the food directly.
"Well, it's really good."
Lin Xian sincerely praised:
"Although it's not a very heavy, unique, or spicy taste, home-cooked dishes are delicious with this kind of taste, it feels like coming home."
Puchi—
Zhao Yingjun was amused by Lin Xian's sentence about coming home:
"How can you have the feeling of coming home when you eat Beijing cuisine? You have to eat Hangzhou dishes to have that feeling, right?"
"That won't happen."
Lin Xian waved his hand:
"Hangzhou is a real desert of food. I didn't realize that there were so many delicious things in the world until I came to the East China Sea after graduating from high school. The cafeteria of Donghai University alone is enough to kill the entire Hangzhou."
Zhao Yingjun smiled slightly:
"Is that so? It's rare to see someone say that about their hometown. Generally, people in other places will have some nostalgia filter for their hometown, and think that the things in their hometown and the things from their childhood are the best."
"There must be a filter."
Lin Xian nodded:
"But in terms of food, it's true to say that the reason why the food environment in Hangzhou has become like this is actually due to some historical reasons, caused by many factors."
"I heard that there is a very famous dish…" Zhao Yingjun blinked her eyes:
"West Lake Fish in Vinegar Gravy?"
Heh.
Lin Xian, who was eating, couldn't help but laugh:
"We locals have a joke, saying that the production process of West Lake Fish in Vinegar Gravy is extremely complicated and has many procedures, but if any procedure is done wrong, it becomes delicious."
"There is also a saying that if a fish is made into West Lake Fish in Vinegar Gravy, then it died in vain, the kind that dies with its eyes open."
"Is it that exaggerated?" Zhao Yingjun was amused by Lin Xian's joke and couldn't stop laughing.
She took out a napkin and wiped the corners of her mouth:
"Then when I have the chance, I have to go to Hangzhou to taste how bad this West Lake Fish in Vinegar Gravy is."
She blinked her eyes, looking at Lin Xian:
"Because I went abroad to study when I was a teenager, I haven't really been to many tourist cities in China. After graduating, I came to Donghai City non-stop to start a business and found MX company. Once I got busy, I didn't have time to run around."
"Actually, I quite like the city of Hangzhou, even though I haven't been there. But… inexplicably, it feels pretty good."
…
Lin Xian's chopsticks stopped in mid-air.
Then he put the chopsticks back on the plate and put his hands under the table.
He thought of Huang Que's fake ID card, and… the beginning of the ID card number, which was the same as the code in his hometown.
"Do you know what the ID number of Hangzhou is?" Lin Xian asked.
"I don't know."
Zhao Yingjun shook her head in confusion, not understanding why Lin Xian would ask this:
"Is there any special meaning?"
"No, there isn't."
Lin Xian picked up his chopsticks and continued to eat:
"Generally speaking, people are unlikely to know the codes of other places except for knowing the ID code of their birthplace."
"Indeed."
Zhao Yingjun echoed:
"I only know my own, my dad's and mine must be the same, I can't even remember the first six digits of my mom's ID card. Because my mom is not a local in the imperial capital, she was born in Sichuan, so naturally her ID number is there."
"But… after getting married, it must be different."
Zhao Yingjun smiled:
"In foreign countries, there is a tradition of wives taking their husband's surname after marriage, but there is no such tradition in China, so naturally the name will not be changed after marriage, let alone the ID number. This string of numbers has been determined from the time of birth, no matter what kind of life you live, this string of ID numbers is you, is your whole life."
"Once a person gets married, has a sense of family and responsibility, they always have to remember the ID number of their family members, even if they can't remember the ones behind, the first few digits should always be able to be remembered. The first six digits of my ID number are 110100."
She raised her head, looking at Lin Xian:
"Lin Xian, what about yours?"
"…" Lin Xian was silent for a moment, looking at Zhao Yingjun.
This was not a difficult question to answer.
It's just that he didn't know why.
He thought of Huang Que.
He thought of Lin Xian and Zhao Yingjun in the space-time where she was.
He once asked Huang Que under the sunset of Amalienborg Palace: Are you married?
At that time, Huang Que just lowered her head and smiled without saying a word, and replied: I can't say.
Considering.
Zhao Yingjun just said that women who are married usually remember their husband's ID number…
Most likely.
This question.
Huang Que couldn't say it, but didn't want to say it, right?
"330127."
Lin Xian said softly.
He smiled:
"It's the same as the password for your office door, there's no pattern, it's hard to remember, and you'll forget it in a turn."
Zhao Yingjun smiled and shook her head:
"You can remember the eight-digit office password that's so hard to remember, so what's so difficult about these six digits?"
…
Lin Xian ate this meal very comfortably.
Home-cooked dishes are more nourishing for the stomach, and it may also be that his recent busyness has led to rarely eating normally, so in comparison, this meal seems particularly delicious.
The dog was also coaxed.
The meal was also finished.
It was time to go home and go back to their respective homes.
Lin Xian and Zhao Yingjun got into the Elfa minivan, and he asked the driver to first come to the residential complex where Zhao Yingjun was, and send her home.
But…
Just as Zhao Yingjun got out of the car, an accident happened.
VV, the Pomeranian that had been quiet for a long time, didn't want to get out of the car!
It looked very busy.
Being held in Zhao Yingjun's arms, it stretched out its head and paws to grab Lin Xian's clothes, not wanting Lin Xian to leave.
"VV, today is over."
Zhao Yingjun reasoned with it:
"Lin Xian should go home too, and let Lin Xian come to your house to play with you next time. You need to go home to rest and sleep, and Lin Xian also needs to go home to sleep."
"Ooh woof… ooh wah woof!!"
Seeing that the Pomeranian was about to tear up aggrievedly again, Lin Xian hurriedly got out of the car and rubbed its head.
"It doesn't seem to want to leave you." Zhao Yingjun said.
"It looks like it."
Lin Xian stared at the Pomeranian VV's expectant eyes.
What do you want to do?
You can't really want me to take you away, right?
"Why don't you go upstairs with me again?" Zhao Yingjun raised her head and looked at Lin Xian:
"I'm really worried about it like this. If you leave… and it still cries like it did that night, I really don't know what to do."
"Can you help me coax VV to sleep before you leave? It hasn't slept during the day today, so it probably won't wake up after falling asleep at night, and will definitely sleep until dawn."
Sigh.
Lin Xian sighed inwardly.
He now has some feelings for this Pomeranian, saying that it's the connection of VV across time and space is a bit exaggerated, but indeed, there is a bit of a special feeling.
Therefore, naturally, he is also a little worried about it.
He didn't expect that his soft ears had spread to the dog's ears.
"Okay."
He turned his head, looking at the driver Xiao Li in the Elfa car:
"Xiao Li, wait for me here for a while, I'll coax this dog to sleep before coming down."
Xiao Li nodded:
"Don't worry, Director Lin, I'll be here."
After that.
Lin Xian and Zhao Yingjun went upstairs again and returned home.
"This is where VV usually sleeps."
Zhao Yingjun took Lin Xian into the huge bedroom, pointing to a soft oval sleeping pad on the carpet by the bed.
Raised all around, sunken in the middle, and covered with a blanket.
Presumably, this is where VV usually sleeps.
It's just…
This is the first time Lin Xian has entered a woman's bedroom in reality, and he feels a little unnatural.
Not to mention, his current task is to coax a puppy to sleep next to a woman's bed.
What high-difficulty SSS-level mission is this again?
Why does it feel like he's gotten on a pirate ship?
"Sleep, VV."
Lin Xian hugged VV and persuaded it like coaxing a child:
"Give me some face, go to sleep quickly."
However!
The Pomeranian VV's eyes were like torches!
Staring at Lin Xian!
It was full of energy!
"Hehe."
Lin Xian has now completely confirmed it.
This dog is too clever! If this doesn't count as becoming an essence, then what counts as becoming an essence?
Is it starting to endure with me?
Lin Xian stubbornly coaxed it for an hour.
Sometimes, the Pomeranian's eyelids were already fighting, and Lin Xian put it on the sleeping pad, preparing to leave.
But the next second.
