Chapter 69 National Treasures Reign Supreme (4)

"Let go." The man's expression was helpless, but his tone was firm, though his movements were unconsciously gentle.

Shen Yun hugged one of his legs and then turned her head to the side. "I won't let go. If you don't take me out today, you can forget about leaving either." Although it was embarrassing to do this, anyway, this face wasn't hers.

She wasn't the one who lost face.

That's all.

After a long standoff, he helped the person clinging to her legs up and said helplessly, "It's not that I don't want to take you with me, it's just that it's not convenient for you to go to my workplace."

Shen Yun blinked her big eyes. "No." Her eyes darted around. "You won't be back until tonight, so what am I going to eat for lunch?"

"I'll have someone send it to you."

Shen Yun's face darkened. She had tried everything and still hadn't succeeded. Was this man's brain filled with excrement? After all, she was so beautiful.

If it's a fist, what are the chances of success?

2345 shattered her illusions: "Not even a fraction. Why don't you try being cute, host, a little bit coquettish, like you're talking with a piece of candy in your mouth."

A little sweeter? With candy in her mouth? Shen Yun stood up with some skepticism, looked around, then picked up a cherry from the table, put it in her mouth, and walked back to his side.

"I'm scared to be home alone."

After she finished speaking, she added, "My current state is not very stable. I might revert back to my old self if I meet strangers."

It's less like being coquettish and more like a threat.

Si Yiyang looked at her with a complicated expression and said with difficulty, "If we go out, we're more likely to meet strangers."

The system then came into play, typing a few words on the screen.

Shen Yun spoke slowly and deliberately, her eyes darting around, "But... as long as I'm by your side, I won't be afraid."

These words had a good effect. After giving her a deep look, Si Yiyang prepared to take her out.

When we arrived at the laboratory, there were only a few people inside, probably because there are relatively few people who choose to study paleobotany.

As soon as he entered, Shen Yun stood there blankly, motionless, with a vacant look in his eyes, at least that's how it appeared to others.

One of the men had a fair and smooth face with distinct features, deep and cold eyes, thick eyebrows, a high nose, and beautiful lips, all of which exuded nobility and elegance.

“I think this person’s looks are quite to my liking. Haven’t you always wanted me to have a relationship? Let’s go with him.” Shen Yun smiled faintly, a strange meaning flashing in his eyes.

She said it so casually, but 2345 was terrified. Its whole body fluffed up, and after a few moments, it stammered, "Ha, host, didn't you dislike it before?"

"Oh, I've changed my mind, and isn't this a bit easier?"

2345 is crying inside. What a load of rubbish! Playing matchmaker will kill people.

"And if I'm not mistaken, he's the male protagonist of this world."

2345 chuckled twice, trying her best to change the subject, "[He is indeed the male lead, but our mission this time seems to have nothing to do with him.] So, honey, don't meddle."

Seemingly seeing through her thoughts, Shen Yun said with a righteous expression, "No, the capable should do more. I'm the kind of person who loves helping others." If the system didn't know her personality, it might have applauded her noble character.

2345: [Hehe.] It jumped around in the space, then shouted, [Host, take another look at him.]

In an instant, the man's entire body began to radiate light like a light bulb, as if he were plugged in with electricity.

The scene was too beautiful for her to bear. So, are all people with great fortune like this?

I really want to block him. Suddenly I understand why that dog sometimes acts crazy.

It's really annoying to the eyes.

2345 couldn't help but feel a pang of schadenfreude. [Is it still good?]

Shen Yun glanced at it indifferently, and immediately lost the will to speak.

Damn, she's not ugly, but this really affects her ability to complete tasks. Seriously, is this kind of character design just a joke?

2345 explained, "[Normal people can't see it. Even in the world of cultivation and spiritual arts, they can only see that he has some talent and possesses spiritual light.]" It paused, its tiny, beady eyes gleaming with pride. "As for what you see, host, it's the result of me deliberately amplifying it a thousandfold or a hundredfold."

After a long pause, Shen Yun finally said, "I really... thank you."

"These are Xu Yi and Luo Yuan, my assistants." Xu Yi was the man who was glowing. Shen Yun glanced at him and turned away with obvious disdain. Xu Yi smiled gently in response.

Luo Yuan, on the other hand, is a standard fair-skinned, beautiful woman with long, straight black hair and bangs. She is definitely a goddess. Her smile is gentle but stiff, and her eyes are extremely complicated. They don't look like enemies, but they are definitely not friendly.

"This is Si Qi, my... distant cousin."

Si Yiyang only started working after he had her sit down next to him.

In fact, their work is very boring, at least in Shen Yun's eyes.

They found the seeds of some so-called ancient plant in some remote corner, then carefully cultivated them and recorded the information within. Of course, there's a 99% chance it won't succeed. As for that 1%, Shen Yun thinks that without external help, the chances of winning the lottery every day are even greater.

Even if the seeds of something that has been dead for thousands of years still have some activity, that activity is not enough to support its growth.

Moreover, the living environment in ancient times is vastly different from that in the present.

Xu Yi has a lively personality, which doesn't match his appearance at all, or rather, he seems rather immature.

Luo Yuan, on the other hand, was very sensible. In comparison, she could at least bring tea and water every now and then.

It's just that the person she's serving isn't her.

Shen Yun idly swung his feet, looking bored.

Seeing that she was looking around and then squinting her eyes slightly after a while, Si Yiyang knew that she was bored. However, he had to look at the data and couldn't keep her company.

Just then, Luo Yuan came over with a cup of coffee and handed it to her. He looked Luo Yuan up and down, and then, seeing her shy expression, said, "Luo Yuan, go and buy some snacks for Si Qi."

Luo Yuan's radiant smile froze instantly, and she looked troubled. "Yi Yang, we're in the middle of an experiment right now. It wouldn't be appropriate for me to leave halfway through."

Si Yiyang spoke his mind, "It doesn't matter, it's the same whether you're here or not."

That's really hurtful.

Shen Yun couldn't help but burst out laughing, her round eyes crinkling into crescent shapes.

Xu Yi added, "Yeah, junior, if you're going out, could you bring me some too? I'm hungry."
