When Shen Chunlan enrolled as a graduate student, Ao Jun was one of the brothers who received him.

In order to let the special human students get familiar with the school situation and various facilities as soon as possible, the school will specially arrange a special human brother or sister to connect with the special human new students.That's how Shen Chunlan got to know Ao Jun.

In addition to his studies, Ao Jun is also a cadre of the Graduate Student Union, and also the secretary-general of the Federation of Special Human Societies in the school. He is very busy with work, and he doesn't have much time to chat seriously with Shen Chunlan.But Shen Chunlan felt that he was very caring: whenever he had a question and sent a text message, Ao Jun would always call him back quickly, be polite and talk endlessly.

After about a month, Shen Chunlan realized that Ao Jun was chasing her.

Shen Chunlan is studying special human pedagogy, professional postgraduate, the schooling period is two years.After he agreed to Ao Jun's pursuit, the two stayed together for about a year.

When he was in his second year of graduate school, Ao Jun graduated.

As early as when the two established their relationship, Ao Jun had already told him that he would go to the United States after graduation, and he could obtain a green card through the talent plan, and would not return to China for development in the future.He also asked Shen Chunlan if he wanted to go with him.

Shen Chunlan refused without thinking.

He can still recall the situation at that time.The two of them came out of the library, and on their way to the staff cafeteria for dinner, Ao Jun suddenly asked him this question.At that time, Ao Jun was about to graduate, and Shen Chunlan was ready to separate.

Shen Chunlan laughed at that time: How is it possible?

He didn't hesitate at all, and he never even imagined that he had this choice.Ao Jun was just asking a question. This thought was like a dragonfly skimming over the water, leaving only a little fluctuation in each other's hearts that can't even be called a ripple.

After graduation, parting.Ao Jun left the rental house they rented together, Shen Chunlan sent him to the airport, embraced, waved, and watched Ao Jun leave.After returning to the small apartment, Shen Chunlan sat in the living room in a daze, only then did he feel that the room was a bit empty.

He quickly quit the rent and returned to the school dormitory.In the year of the second year of research, there were occasional people who expressed affection for him. If they were suitable for each other, he would go out with the other party on a date.But he never fell in love again.

Cao Hui asked him why.

Shen Chunlan thought for a long time before replying to him: It doesn't seem to be interesting.

Cao Hui gave him a big white eye.

Of course he liked Ao Jun.Ao Jun is the kind of person who is easy to like and trust. In addition, his appearance is outstanding, and he is a sentinel who can understand each other with Shen Chunlan. When they first got together, Shen Chunlan and him were almost inseparable.

But this energy soon passed.Both Shen Chunlan and Ao Jun began to immerse themselves in their respective affairs.Shen Chunlan didn't seem to notice the troubles of falling in love at all. The two got along very happily. In Cao Hui's words, they were not only good friends with benefits, but also reasonable colleagues.

However, even in the best and happiest period of their relationship, Ao Jun and Shen Chunlan never thought about forming a partnership.

Entering into a partnership is a prerequisite for obtaining a marriage certificate in the management rules of the Sentinel Guide.

As long as one party is a sentinel or guide, no matter who the other party is, when both parties decide to marry, they must submit a "partner application" to the special human management committee.

If both parties are of the opposite sex, after the partner application is approved, they can obtain a marriage certificate in accordance with normal procedures.

If the two parties are of the same gender, they cannot obtain a marriage certificate under the current law. This approved partner application is actually equivalent to their marriage certificate.

This regulation first started from the war years.

Sentinels and guides who played a huge role in the war years made many people realize the importance of controlling and managing them.Due to the particularity of the sentinel guide's "sea area", in order to avoid strong emotional fluctuations such as "tsunami" (*), all sentinels who have missions to battle are required to form a companion with the guide rather than anyone else.

This is because only the guide can channel the sentry's bad mood.Even if the partner cannot go deep into the deep sea, as long as the negative effects of the shallow sea are successfully removed, the sentinel can continue to return to the battlefield normally.

This regulation has been used to this day, and many people have opposed it, but it has never been abolished.

When Shen Chunlan reminisces about the past, he inevitably thinks of the two years he spent in Beijing eating university. He is surprised and funny at the same time: his longing for the school cafeteria and food street runs faster than his old romance.

It took only a year and a half to part with Ao Jun.But old lovers have changed.

Perhaps if a person always hides in the ivory tower, the innocence soaked in the student days will always be engraved in the bones.Shen Chunlan always felt that Ao Jun in front of him seemed to be a mature industry elite, the kind of person who would be constantly questioned by headhunters on the LinkedIn website.But in front of him, he was still a student who had never stepped out of the university campus.

Ao Jun obviously dressed carefully for today's meeting, so as not to be overly formal, but the decent pullover makes his broad shoulders look strong, under the glasses is a pair of eyes that can smile, every time they meet Shen Chunlan's eyes, there is Send some messages.

Shen Chunlan couldn't understand clearly.He found that he even forgot whether Ao Jun's glasses were the one that was with him.They are all round, with thin borders, but he really can't remember the specific style.

Shen Chunlan remained silent, and Ao Jun also fell silent after talking to him a few words.On the contrary, the conversation between Shen Chunhong and his colleagues gradually became cold.

There is a reason why Ao Jun wants to form a partnership with Shen Chunlan.

His eldest brother and Shen Chunhong are both colleagues of the Geoffrey Research Institute. At the end of the year, Shen Chunhong finally returned to work in the Shanghai branch from Australia. He also happened to be on a business trip in Shanghai and had contacts with the projects Shen Chunhong was in charge of.The two had a good conversation, so the man took a photo of Shen Chunlan and sent it to Ao Jun.There is such a coincidence in the world, as soon as Ao Jun saw Shen Chunlan, he immediately agreed to meet him, and emphasized to his eldest brother that he would form a partnership with this guide.

"If you don't have a partner, Ao Jun can't participate in this survey plan to South Africa." The man carefully analyzed the pros and cons with Shen Chunhong, "This is a plan hosted by the United Nations and the International Special Human Management Committee. Ao Jun's mission is very, very Important, he doesn't want to lose this opportunity, and of course he wants to give your brother a new opportunity."

Shen Chunlan noticed that his brother's tone had changed, as if he was negotiating.

"If my brother becomes a partner with Ao Jun, will he also go to South Africa with Ao Jun?"

"Of course. There is a certain danger in this plan..."

Shen Chunlan was listening attentively, and Ao Jun tapped the back of his hand, motioning him to go away with him.

The shop was deserted, the boss and the proprietress were busy at the counter, they walked aside, Ao Jun breathed a sigh of relief.

"My brother and your brother are both very strong." Ao Jun brushed his hair, and Shen Chunlan looked at him.Of course he is still handsome, very handsome.Why did he insist on finding himself as a partner?Shen Chunlan didn't understand.

Ao Jun's words were simpler and more direct than his brother's.

"There is still one month before the drafting of the plan list, and I can't find a more suitable person." Ao Jun said, "I know you well, and you know me too. We have been together for a year. I think our relationship is still good. Yes. If you become a partner with me, I can apply for a green card for you, and if you want to go to South Africa with me, it can be regarded as an exchange."

Shen Chunlan was at a loss for a moment.

He knew it would happen, that someone would use a marriage or a partnership as some sort of bargaining chip.But he experienced it himself, which surprised him.

"I have a boyfriend in the United States..." Ao Jun thought for a while, and then said, "Don't worry, before returning to China for the New Year this year, we separated, because he couldn't accept that I found someone else to form a partnership instead of him. "

Shen Chunlan was even more shocked: "Why not with him..."

"He has a higher status than me and earns more than me." Ao Jun quickly explained, "He said that it is impossible to give up his current career and go to South Africa with me for three years."

Shen Chunlan was speechless and wanted to laugh.

Ao Jun: "I can't find a more suitable person, Chunlan. I know you, you are kind, unscrupulous, direct, and I still admire you very much. The project in South Africa is dangerous for me, but You are very safe. Just treat it as fun and do me a favor. The partner application is actually just a process. After three years, the project ends and we can dissolve the partnership."

Shen Chunlan really didn't know what to say, he was completely shocked by Ao Jun's thoughts.

"Ao Jun, I also have my own job, and it is impossible for me to go to South Africa with you. It will take three years...no!" Shen Chunlan was almost stunned by him, "The point is, we have already broken up and have nothing to do with each other. If you want to be friends, OK, I am willing, we both know that each other is a pretty good person. But partnership, for us, this is equivalent to marriage. Ao Jun, marriage..."

"Marriage is actually a contractual relationship." Ao Jun obviously knew how he would reject him, "It's just that humans have attached too much moral and emotional meaning."

"At least it's not that simple for me. A partner is a lover, not a partner."

Ao Jun looked at him, a hint of sarcasm flickered in those eyes covered by glasses.

"You're always so childish."

Shen Chunlan: "Yes. But I seem to remember that you said before that my childishness is cute."

Ao Jun leaned against the wall with him, shoulders touching.

"When you're in love, you always have to tell some lies." He said, "Your childishness is ridiculous now."

Shen Chunlan: "Obviously this is the truth."

Ao Jun: "What's so good about being a teacher? You're poor and tired, and you have too many things to do with your mother."

The more he said the more impolite, Shen Chunlan relaxed instead.Ao Jun finally took off his mask of an elite in the industry, and the only people around him are old friends who have been complaining in the past.

"My students are all good." Shen Chunlan said, "There is a girl who is a guide, and there are hundreds of thousands of butterflies with red eyes and red eyes."

Ao Jun came to the spirit: "We also want to find such a person now. It is best to be a spiritual body that can fly and self-replicate, but it is too rare. There are no such guides and sentries in the team, which brings great benefits to our search work. Very difficult."

Shen Chunlan: "What are you searching for?"

Ao Jun: "..."

He pushed up his glasses and closed his mouth.

Although they were separated, Shen Chunlan still remembered some of the habits they had when they were together.Ao Jun is a student cadre outside, serious and always putting on airs, but when he returns to the space he and Shen Chunlan share, he will revert to a somewhat childish man who will complain and be careless Will slip up.

Ao Jun: "Don't lie to me."

Shen Chunlan: "Okay."

Ao Jun: "Really don't agree?"

Shen Chunlan: "Absolutely not."

Ao Jun was suspicious: "I see, you have a partner now, or someone you like."

Shen Chunlan: "I haven't."

His guinea pig jumped onto his shoulder, pointed his butt at Ao Jun, and scratched Shen Chunlan's ears with his small paws.Shen Chunlan thought, I'm not lying, don't tickle me.

Shen Chunlan didn't have any interest in his work, looked up at Shen Chunhong and brother Ao Jun, and found that the two of them were chatting so blue that they were about to throw their fists at the next moment.

A meeting, and finally broke up unhappy.

What makes Shen Chunhong most angry is that his colleagues think that Shen Chunlan's work is not important and highly replaceable, and it is obviously more beneficial to participate in Ao Jun's plan.

Shen Chunlan's thoughts, Shen Chunlan's wishes, or to put it mildly, Shen Chunlan's ideals—in this meeting, they are the least important point.

On the way home, Shen Chunhong kept cursing and swearing all the way.

"It doesn't matter if you say that you can resign at any time from your job... My day! Yes, I said that I am not satisfied with your job in New Hope, but others can't say that."

He began to suspect that his colleagues had serious guide discrimination.

"He is a sentry himself, and his younger brother is also a sentry. Hey, I have never seen such an annoying sentry." Shen Chunhong babbled endlessly, "I said that discrimination cannot exist alone. He discriminates against guides and thinks guides It’s just a vassal of the sentinel, so I can fully infer that he will also discriminate against many other things!”

Ao Jun sent a message to Shen Chunlan, asking if he could come out for tea and meet him when he was free.

Shen Chunlan replied perfunctorily.Seeing him bowing his head and fiddling with the phone, Shen Chunhong held back for a long time before humming: "You were in love before, why didn't you tell me?"

"There's nothing to say." Shen Chunlan replied, "Then you and your sister-in-law have been dating for two years, didn't you tell us when you got the certificate?"

Shen Chunhong: "That's different. Sun Rui and I were too busy at the time, not sure if we could start a family, so it's inconvenient to tell you the situation."

Shen Chunlan: "Double standard, my sister-in-law was pregnant at that time."

Shen Chunhong became angry from embarrassment: "I am your brother, I can double the standard!"

At this time, Shen Chunlan sincerely hoped that Shen Chunhong could put on a calm face that only outsiders could see as soon as possible, and stop rambling.

Thanks to the blessings of Ao Jun and Brother Ao Jun, Shen Chunlan's blind date has finally come to an end for the time being.Shen Chunhong gave up the idea of ​​finding a boyfriend for Shen Chunlan, and it was also because Sun Rui told him that Shen Chunlan was also looking for it herself. Although the conversion rate was extremely low, at least it continued to promote and execute.

Ao Jun continued to send messages to Shen Chunlan and make occasional phone calls.Shen Chunlan was about to drag him into the blacklist.

Sentinel guides without a mate live an average of 47 years.This is a statistic from a long time ago, and it has now risen to 58 years.Shen Chunlan thought to himself that he would continue to rise. By the time he was 58 years old, he might have risen to 90 years.

It will get better and better.he said to himself.

The parents didn't know about this, Shen Chunhong only said that the young man on the blind date was too short and ugly, and Shen Chunlan didn't like it.The night before he and Sun Rui took their daughter back to Shanghai, they knocked on Shen Chunlan's door again, as if they wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with him.

Shen Chunlan is sorting out the courses and work for the next semester, listening to each other.

"There is a suitable person, don't miss it, okay?" Shen Chunhong urged before leaving, "It doesn't matter if you have a partner or not, but you have to fall in love."

Shen Chunlan was really annoying him to death.

A few days ago, Cao Hui sent him a research document, talking about how people can keep a happy mood.The research literature simply and rudely concludes: three methods, enjoying food, exercising, and having sex.

Of the three, the last produces the most dopamine, which is the most pleasurable.

Pleasant emotions help the "sea area" to stabilize - Shen Chunlan reasoned - so for his own sake, he should at least try to find someone who can get along with him in bed.

He grabbed his phone and clicked on Lube.

There are several people who have chatted on Lube, but no one is as grumpy as him.As soon as others come up, they will say three sentences: Do you want to be 1 or 0?Do you have a photo?Show your face.

Shen Chunlan wants to save face, he has never sent anyone a photo.

And the only person who had a heart-to-heart conversation with him was the sentinel whose head was a guinea pig.

He told the other party that his spiritual body was a guinea pig, so the sentinel began to call him "little mouse" afterwards.

He kind of likes the nickname.There is a cheap intimacy.

He called the other party a big dog.

Big Dog's personal homepage has never updated any information, there is no specific information, only the profile picture of the guinea pig that changes every now and then, never the same.

Shen Chunlan thought to himself, the person most likely to transform into reality might be this one.

He sent Big Dog a message.

[I went on a blind date. 】

Before putting down the phone, Big Dog's reply popped out.

【why? 】

【Comparison】

【do not】

【I agree】

【I do not allow】

The big dog who was so anxious to make a typo didn't give Shen Chunlan time to react. After the last message popped up, Shen Chunlan's screen instantly turned dark blue, and a guinea pig head appeared on the phone: Big Dog sent him a voice invitation .

Shen Chunlan was stunned.He was still thinking about how to say the next sentence in order to test out Dagou's true thoughts.

He grabbed his phone and rolled onto the bed, very nervous.

But when the finger was a centimeter away from "answer", the invitation was over.

Shen Chunlan immediately got up from the bed.

The big dog is still online, and the little green light is on on the avatar, but there is no movement.

Shen Chunlan: "..."

He didn't know where his courage came from, so he called back immediately.

----

Tsunami: a special term for marine science.When sentries and guides deal with some difficult tasks that are easy to touch the ethical margin, there will be serious negative emotional waves, and such emotional fluctuations are collectively referred to as "tsunami".

Tsunami always erupts in a short period of time, which is obviously harmful and unpredictable to the "sea area" and the emotional and mental state. It mostly occurs on sentries, and the guide "sea area" sees very little.

Especially on the battlefield, the possibility of a "tsunami" for sentries on missions will be more than ten times higher than that of sentries in other places, and sentries returning from the battlefield will have special personnel responsible for resolving and cleaning up the "tsunami" for them. ” of the remaining impact.If a sentinel with a severe "tsunami" does not have a trusted guide, a spiritual adjuster will be responsible for the guidance.

The author has something to say:

Director Liang's small theater has run dry!Do you have any animals or programs you want to watch~

Let Gong Shang and Bai Xiaoyuan perform casually today. Without star members, the box office probably won't be very high.

During the performance, all the audience in the theater embraced three or four sand cats.In the theater, blush and silk-eyed butterflies are floating around, with erratic flight routes.

The sand cats are drowsy, curled up in the arms of people, weak, well-behaved, and easy to touch.

Bai Xiaoyuan taught the palace merchants to drink by the side of the stage: It's delicious, very delicious, listen to my sister, and have another sip.

Gong Shang's eyes were straightened, and the little blessings followed suit, swinging around drunkenly.

that night.

Conductor: Today's box office is the highest ever.

director:? !

Conductor: In order to play cats, some people bought tickets for the morning, afternoon and night shows.

Director: ... (in deep thought) How about we withdraw the star member Guinea Pig?
