Zero looked at the data at hand, a glimmer of hope in his golden eyes.

"The current data is increasing year by year. It seems that launching the 'Ark Project' is the right decision."

Everything is gradually developing as he planned. Perhaps on that day, there will be a chance to reverse everything he foresaw.

"Zero, I have something to tell you." The woman walked towards him. "I have a report for you about my future research direction."

Her body has been repaired and has regained its functions.

Zero called up the dashboard and glanced at the request, "Do you wish to withdraw from the research on the origin cells?"

"You know that only my daughter can extract the origin cells. Looking at the data will inevitably distract you."

"Your maternal instinct is overflowing, unlike a constant person."

"Love is human instinct. I am a human being, just like my husband." The woman's voice was unconsciously gentle when she mentioned her family.

Zero didn't know if that was possible, "But your research is still lacking one power."

Not his, but...

His eyes fell on the mural in front of him. Huge feathered serpents were winding and wandering around, a pure white giant deer was resting in place, and a crow burning with black flames was perched on its horns. Monsters were everywhere, and the original carnivores were among them, young and weak.

“Would you expect your daughter to win?” He poked the crow on the mural gently, and the plump, furry bird made an irritable, hoarse cry.

Jiang Ren didn't want to answer.

"Xie Yingzhi has discovered a lot from her research. Although his methods are radical, most of them are effective," he reminded.

Xie Yingzhi had discovered something very important on Disaster042, so he was willing to risk his life to complete the experiment. However, he didn't know what the result of the experiment was now.

I guess it will take effect soon.

early morning.

While office workers in Yancheng were still crowding into buses and subways, Lin Zishan had already prepared breakfast.

"Morning, Miss Jiang." He put breakfast on the table, then stood aside, waiting for instructions.

Jiang Yiran stared at him.

"Don't you say something?"

These days, Feng, Lin, and Huo always come over and say something to cheer her up. Only Lin Zishan is different. As his name suggests, he is as still as a mountain.

"You want me to chat with you? Sure." He walked over.

Jiang Yiran frowned slightly.

She doesn't like people taking the initiative.

"I don't feel like talking much."

"You can eat while listening to me talk." He thought for a moment, "I've learned crosstalk, talk shows, and acrobatics."

"You're pretty awesome."

"I'm just learning a little bit." He poured her soy milk naturally. "I lost my parents when I was very young. Life at Sacred Heart Convent wasn't easy. I wanted to protect my sister, so I learned a lot."

"You have a sister..." Jiang Yiran suddenly became interested.

The last time she investigated Lin Zishan, she found nothing and her account was blocked. Now that the real owner is here, it might be okay for her to ask some questions.

"Yes, she is a gentle and weak woman." Lin Zishan introduced.

"Do you just think of her as a weak person who needs protection?" Obviously, girls also have the power to protect themselves.

Lin Zishan thought about it and shook his head. "No, most of the time I still felt that she was protecting me. Later, when I grew taller than her, I still felt that she was more powerful than me."

Because, in his memory, his sister not only took care of her own studies, but also had to take care of his life. In the past, when only the two of them supported each other, she gave more.

"Not all strong people need to have a healthy and strong body. It's also good to be tolerant and mature like my sister."

His words left Jiang Yiran silent.

She finally realized something very important: although she seemed to have everything, she was still a weak person mentally.

From the very beginning, Xie Zhen never taught her how to react when she was oppressed.

"...So, you like girls like Jing Yilan?"

She didn't know what to talk about next and felt confused.

But when I think of the person he described, the first thing that comes to my mind is a quiet and weak figure.

I hate someone, but at the same time I think she lives up to the name. The twisted feeling in my heart is so annoying.

"It's normal to like her." Lin Zishan admitted calmly.

He remembered the girl asking him for his phone number to call her friend, as if she were a broken porcelain doll that he had pieced together, and it was hard not to feel pity for her.

Girls like that seem to be born to glow.

Jiang Yiran drank some soy milk and couldn't stand the flash of emotion in his eyes. "The age gap between you and her is... a bit big."

When Lin Zishan was in college, Jing Yilan was about to enter junior high school, which was strange.

A hollow feeling came from his chest. Lin Zishan said patiently, "It's nothing. I can wait."

"Wait until she grows up?"

"Only after her character matures, she interacts with most people in society, and develops her own judgment, will she have the power to choose." Lin Zishan felt a warmth well up in his previously empty chest. "I hope that when she chooses me, she will be mature and resolute."

But at that time, he might not be worthy of Jing Yilan.

Jiang Yiran was silent.

At this moment, she couldn't help but sigh that Jing Yilan was lucky.

No matter what situation she is in, she always meets a group of good people, unlike her, who live in one lie after another.

The fortune-telling stall is not very busy today, and Pu Qiubai is ready to close it.

"Brother Xiaoqiu, fortune telling." Shanzhe passed by with an ice cream in his mouth.

Pu Qiubai frowned, "That name is a bit disgusting."

"I'm happy. Or maybe I can follow Sister Fu and call you Brother Xiaobai?" He spread his hands. "Let's see if I can come back."

"The lines on your palm...you're destined to die young." He frowned.

But apart from his short life, he was extremely lucky in other aspects.

"He died young, I know." Shan Zhe glanced at his hands.

He didn't even need to calculate, he knew that when the time came, someone would definitely take him away.

"Can you tell anything else? For example..."

"I can't tell. I'm so confused. Maybe there's a new opportunity? My relationship has been a bit bumpy..."

"It's not as bumpy as yours." Shan Zhe complained in a low voice.

Pu Qiubai was so hesitant that he was afraid that he would die in the future. Pu Qiubai and Jing Bailu were still arguing.

"Don't interrupt."

Pu Qiubai knocked his head and continued to stare at his hand.

He saw a figure in the chaos, like the sun, which could not be seen for too long.

"It might be dangerous, you..."

"If something happens to me, can you please take care of my cat?" Shanzhe took out his cell phone and sent a message to his mother.

If he really was in danger, he would need a reason to reassure Ms. Shan before he came back.

Pu Qiubai stared at the text message and said, "If you can't come back, I'll help you cover up the lie."

If something happened to Shan Zhe, Jing Bailu would be the only one who could help him clean up the mess, and he didn't want Jing Bailu to be embarrassed in front of Ms. Shan alone.
