Chapter 93 Darkness
The sky over Exile Star is always slightly gloomy.
Qi Xu had a white veil wrapped around his forehead and was wearing a mask, with only the edge of the mask showing through the white veil. His head was also wrapped in white veil.
The rabbit girl in front of him had an abnormally pale face due to lack of blood, and her pink eyes were unfocused. She held a white cane in one hand.
She had a pair of legs; one of her trouser legs was empty, while her right leg, which was exposed, was a mechanical leg.
The two women had similar pink eyes, and both had their own tragic experiences.
"Yes, she is my brother's master." Qi Xu spoke softly. When he mentioned Jiang Mian, his eyebrows seemed to curve slightly, and his tone became more tender. "She is a very good person, and my brother is doing very well now."
The rabbit girl, Qiyun, also truly felt that her brother's feelings came from the bottom of his heart.
She was genuinely happy for him, and smiled slightly: "Really? That's wonderful."
Qi Yun continued with a light smile, "Brother, A-Yun is doing very well now. She has become a pharmacist's assistant, so you don't need to worry about me anymore."
During their conversation, they simply greeted each other.
Qi Yun couldn't see it, so naturally she didn't know that Qi Xu's face had been completely disfigured.
Qi Xu looked at his younger sister and saw the mechanical leg exposed beneath her empty trousers. Although he smiled, his eyes trembled, and his smile was bitter.
But the past is the past; what matters is the present.
Qi Xu reached out and gently patted Qi Yun's head: "Yes, brother understands."
The man with the quantum computer kept giving Qixu meaningful glances, signaling her to stop talking.
Qi Xu frowned and gave all the star coins and half of the nutrient solution he had to Qi Yun.
Unable to refuse, Qi Yun softly said, "Thank you, brother."
"Take care." Qi Xu patted her head. "I'll come see you again next time."
“Okay, brother,” Qiyun replied softly.
Two men dressed in black and wearing sunglasses walked up to Qiyun and said coldly, "Let's go."
"Brother, I'm going back." Qiyun said to Qixu.
"Okay," Qixu replied softly.
Qi Yun was between two men in black clothes and sunglasses, and was then led into a car and driven away.
Qi Xu watched the car drive away.
The bald man then approached Qi Xu and said calmly, "Alright, I've already let you meet your sister. We're even now. I'm leaving."
But Qi Xu grabbed his collar: "Where exactly is my sister staying?"
Why are there bodyguards in black always following me? Why are they so pale and so thin?
Although Qiyun didn't say anything bad, Qixu didn't think her sister was really doing well.
The bald man, looking impatient, grabbed the other's hand and tried to pull it away, but the orc was incredibly strong. He struggled several times but couldn't break free. His face darkened, and he lowered his hand, saying sarcastically, "You'd better not ask any more questions. You're already at someone else's mercy yourself, how can you possibly care about your sister?"
"Just tell me what you want to say." Qi Xu's expression was icy and frozen, her pink eyes staring straight at the bald man.
The bald man curled his lip impatiently, but finally spoke, though his tone was very unfriendly: "Your sister is currently an experimental beastman at Wan'an Medicinal Herbs Company, simply put, a drug testing beastman."
He looked at Qixu with disdain and casually said, "These drug-testing beastmen are usually imprisoned for life for drug testing. You can't take them away even if you have money; only power and force can."
The bald man had naturally sold many orc medicines to the company, so he had some connections with the company owner, which gave him the opportunity to bring the person out.
The next second, a fist slammed into his face.
Qi Xu punched the man, knocking him to the ground. Her slender body quickly moved to his side, her arm taut and strong, her hand gripping his collar tightly. Her voice was cold: "Who told you to sell her there!"
The man had already turned vicious after throwing a punch. He threw another punch, but Qi Xu dodged it and instead pinned down the man's arm.
Realizing he couldn't win, the bald man could only speak with a grim expression and a deep voice: "Back when the alien insects attacked, she lost a leg and had a fever. If it weren't for a pharmacist from the pharmaceutical company taking a liking to her, I would not only have lost money, but she would have died long ago. How could she be alive and meeting you now?"
When the alien insects attacked, Qixu, as a boy, was also seriously injured and almost didn't survive. He thought his sister died because of the missing leg left on the ground, his sister's clothes, and the lemon hair clip he had given her that had fallen to the ground...
Upon hearing this, Qi Xu's strength slightly weakened.
At that time, he couldn't even protect himself, so how could he protect his sister?
Taking advantage of this moment, the bald man broke free from Qi Xu's hand, shoved Qi Xu aside, got up and walked a few steps away, gritting his teeth as he looked at Qi Xu: "Damn it, what's the use of coming to me? If you're so capable, go to Wan'an Medicinal Herbs Company and rescue your sister. If you're going to rescue her, do it sooner rather than later, because once that pharmacist finishes collecting the herbs here, he'll take your sister and leave this exile planet."
The bald man left, cursing. Qi Xu remained on the ground, saying nothing.
After a long while, he slowly stood up from the ground.
The white shirt was stained with gray.
Pink hair fell down, fingertips were bleeding from clenching fists too tightly, and the head was bleeding slightly from the wound caused by the fierce fight.
Qi Xu's pink eyes were filled with a deathly gloom.
He slowly walked into the dark and chaotic alley.
This time, your brother will protect you.
……
After Jiang Mian finished drinking the nutrient solution, she took a nap. When her personal computer rang, she got dressed and went downstairs.
Lin Yu, dressed in a matching windbreaker that looked like a couple's outfit, was waiting at the door.
His long, dark hair fell across his face, and his narrow, red, usually weary eyes would light up with a hint of life when he saw Jiang Mian.
"Let's go, Lin Yu." Jiang Mian smiled faintly.
"Mmm," Lin Yu responded softly.
Jiang Mian went out in the afternoon and asked Lin Yu to accompany her.
I probably won't be back until tonight after I go out to work.
"Does your head still hurt lately?" Jiang Mian asked with concern.
Lin Yu's narrow eyes flickered slightly, and he spoke softly, "It doesn't hurt."
If he said it hurt, she might let him stay and rest instead of taking him out.
She finally came to find him...
"That's good." Jiang Mian smiled slightly. "I'll have time to make the potion for you tomorrow."
"Okay." Lin Yu glanced at her, his eyes filled with undisguised affection.
Jiang Mian noticed him looking at her, so she turned her head to look at him and flashed a bright smile.
Lin Yu's narrow, red eyes couldn't help but ripple slightly like red wine, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but turn up, pulling at the red mole under his lips. He seemed to be pleased by Jiang Mian's actions, his heartbeat slightly accelerated, and his ears couldn't help but feel a little hot.
She has such a beautiful smile, I love it.
Jiang Mian was slightly taken aback when she saw him smile.
Actually, Rin Yu has a very handsome smile, but most of the time, this guy's face is always pale and gloomy, and he doesn't smile much.
In any case, Jiang Mian rarely saw him smile, or rather, she never saw him show any emotional fluctuations.
He always had a gloomy, listless, and apathetic demeanor, showing no interest in anything.
He never showed any emotion. After being with him for so many years, all she had ever noticed was that when he was in a good mood, the tip of his snake tail would twitch gently in small circles with a pleasant, lazy air.
Lin Yu isn't as gloomy as he is in the future. She actually made him laugh when she teased him like that. It was a very faint laugh, but he still laughed.
After all, Jiang Mian had never seen him smile before!
Jiang Mian noticed that the other person's expression was calm and their eyes were no longer cold and disdainful, which made her think that the other person was in a good mood.
So Jiang Mian was quite surprised, but also quite happy.
That's good, smile more, be in a good mood, and your head won't be so full of thoughts and get headaches.
"Lin Yu, you look so beautiful when you smile. You should smile more often." Jiang Mian smiled gently, her eyes crinkling.
Her deep red eyes widened slightly, then she calmly replied, "Mm."
Perhaps only she could bring him joy.
It's been a long time since I've felt this kind of joy.
This uncontrollable pleasure.
