Chapter 226 Only you
The person who said it looked calm and indifferent, as if what he said was the self-evident and common truth.
The listeners were stunned and didn't know what to say.
Liuli stared at Chu Xuan blankly. It seemed as if these simple words had opened up a crack in the distant past, and the whole world began to tremble.
wobbling and crumbling.
"I thought... you would find me annoying..." Liuli opened her mouth and hesitated for a long time before saying this.
When she was at the Longyin Base, it would be more accurate to say that she and Chu Xuan were torturing each other rather than being in love.
She followed Chu Xuan every day, either sitting in the laboratory and staring at him in a daze, or leaning over the table and asking him some completely meaningless questions.
When she is bored, she will peel an apple. Liuli herself is not good at such manual work, so she certainly won't hurt herself. She will just peel a good apple into bumps.
Finally, I couldn't stand it anymore, so I made the red apples into yellow apple puree.
Chu Xuan likes brightly colored apples and dislikes yellow, rotten applesauce.
But Liuli didn't care whether he liked it or not, she preferred applesauce to apples.
"I actually didn't like you very much at the beginning." Liuli clenched the chopsticks in her hand, not knowing how to react for a moment.
"Even when I was officially dating you, I wasn't very loyal... Of course, you can't blame me for that. You know, I've never been a loyal person."
"So, what do you like about me?"
She racked her brains to recall her past with Chu Xuan, but she really couldn't think of anything about her that was worthy of his lingering memory and regard as a god.
At that time, she was fickle, frivolous, bad-tempered, willful and mischievous.
Although she had known Chu Xuan for quite some time, to be honest, even Wang Ye, whom she had known since kindergarten, had not known him for longer than them.
But after coming out of the laboratory, she was sent to normal human society, while Chu Xuan was raised in the Longyin Base as an advanced computer and strategic talent.
They only see each other a few times a year.
If it weren't for that experimental relationship later, Liuli would probably have forgotten about Chu Xuan.
If it were anyone else, even Grisha who had become God, Liuli would think it was natural for him to like her.
He has good taste to fall in love with me, and it is his honor that I like him.
But if it were Chu Xuan... Liuli really didn't understand.
What does he like about her?
IQ?
Who wouldn't be a joke if they talked about IQ in front of Chu Xuan?
Physical?
After she became an adult, all her physical examinations were done by Chu Xuan. This expressionless man looked at her as if she were a piece of frozen meat. Their first kiss and sex were also initiated by Liuli.
After all, Chu Xuan didn't feel anything at all.
In this case, what exactly does Chu Xuan like about her?
Liuli really couldn't understand, so she couldn't help but stare at Chu Xuan with a puzzled expression. The other party still had an expressionless face, but he put down the chess piece in his hand and looked at her intently.
Chu Xuan thought about this question for a while. He was able to come to this world just like Grisha, because of a bug.
However, his bug is more powerful than Grisha's. He has become Hongjun in the future and transferred his power to the past. In essence, it is still his own power, just borrowed.
Chu Xuan has now unlocked the fourth-level gene lock, but thinking about emotional issues is still unfamiliar and difficult.
"Actually, I don't know either." He thought for a long time and finally gave this reply.
"Just thinking about it, besides you, it seems that there is no one in this world who would sit by and watch me do experiments, waste my apples into applesauce, and waste my blank paper for calculations and scribbling..."
Even the most boring and tedious work seemed to become warmer with the company of someone around. When he looked back, he could see her lazily drawing on the table, and occasionally she would look up and smile at him.
Just like when he was a child observing the outside world through the glass window, among the expressionless staff coming and going, the jumping little girl was the only one who smiled at him.
The peaceful life was slightly rippled because of one person.
"Except for you, no one would just walk into my lab or lounge and sit on a chair or bed and stare blankly."
"No one would pick up documents and throw them at someone in the base just because they were talking about me behind my back."
"No one would constantly ask, 'Brother Chu, have you finished your experiment?', 'Brother Chu, is your tomato and watermelon salad delicious?', 'Brother Chu, are you bored? Those scientists who made you work so long are violating labor laws. Let's revolt.'"
"No one will just come and hold my hand and run around with me, drag me to watch the sunrise and sunset, or make 47 applications to take me to New Zealand to see glowworms."
"Only you." Chu Xuan said, "There is only you in this world."
Chu Xuan was still very calm when he spoke, and even his tone was flat. He just looked at Liuli sitting on the chair, the early morning sun shining through the floor-to-ceiling windows onto her face.
From her hair to her eyelashes, everything is golden, and the light spreads across her pupils, giving off an indescribable warmth.
What exactly is love? What is it all about? Why does one person fall in love with another? What does it feel like to be in love?
Chu Xuan didn’t know.
He only knew that when he said this word, a person's appearance would subconsciously appear in his mind, and a person's name would subconsciously appear on his lips.
Is this like it?
If this isn't love, then what is?
The moment Chu Xuan obtained the Jade Book of Creation and awakened the logical way of heaven, he seemed to be standing in the center of the universe, and countless planets of all sizes were generated or annihilated in the blink of an eye.
With a wave of his hand, the invisible wind changed the trajectory of the stars, and the entire universe was just a model in his palm that he could manipulate at will.
At that time, inexplicably, he suddenly began to miss Liuli.
Strangely enough, he had often thought of her in the past, but never so much.
I want to see her jumping into the laboratory like a rabbit running wildly across the grass.
I want to see her singing while piling apples into a castle. Every time an apple rolls down, she will subconsciously look over at me guiltily, and then say with a smile and confidence that she will eat applesauce today.
He wanted to see her lying on the small table in the laboratory, or nestled in his single bed, staring at him quietly with her beautiful eyes.
I want to hear her calling my name, in the corridors of the base, in the spacious laboratory, in the narrow lounge, in the Gobi Desert, in the Arctic and Antarctic, and in the glowworm caves of New Zealand.
Calling him "Brother Chu", "Chu Xuan", "Colonel Chu", "Chu Mutou", "Little Prince of Fishing", "Red Apple Alien"...
I want to sit with her on the lawn outside the base and look at the stars, even though she always falls asleep while looking at them.
But she was so well-behaved and quiet when she fell asleep, just curled up in his arms, as if she would never leave.
Life becomes rich because of one person's dependence.
Life becomes warm because of the existence of a person.
At that moment, Chu Xuan suddenly felt like there was a rope on his body, pulling him tightly like a kite string. Even if he went to outer space, even if he became Hongjun and became the Heavenly Dao, this rope would still be there.
As long as he follows the rope, he can find his way home.
Chu Xuan looked into Liuli's eyes seriously. Her pupils changed color, but her soul remained colorful.
"Because I wanted to see you again, I became Hongjun. Because I was worried that you wouldn't recognize me, I became Chu Xuan again."
"That's how I feel about you."
