Lin Jiu ran to the hospital entrance. There was a familiar black car parked across the road. He walked over and the door opened automatically. Si Xu was sitting in the back seat and Wen Qin was driving.
Lin Jiu greeted Wen Qin, got in the car, and the car started and left.
Si Xu was not wearing a mask and he did not look well.
Lin Jiu was a little worried, "Is the test result not good?"
Logically speaking, this shouldn't happen. The recessive gene has already been activated by 10%. The situation will only get better, not worse.
Si Xu said calmly, "The test results are good."
"Then why are you unhappy?" Lin Jiu suddenly remembered that he forgot to call last night, "Sorry, I forgot to call you."
Lin Jiu was very afraid that Si Xu would find out about what happened that year. After being scared by the system, he was already considering whether he should run to the Demon Sea plane to hide if the secret was uncovered.
Lin Jiu obviously didn't get to the point, and Si Xu looked at him with something strange in his eyes.
Lin Jiu silently took off the mask on his face, trying not to let Si Xu get angry again.
Si Xu looked at his cautious look and sighed softly, "Who did you go to the hospital to see?"
Lin Jiu: "Jiang Xiwen, she is sick."
Si Xu knew that Jiang Xiwen had made a lot of efforts in signing Lin Jiu and helping Lin Jiu terminate the contract.
"Who did you go with?"
"I went there on my own..."
Lin Jiu realized something and hurriedly took out his phone to log into Weibo. After searching for a while, he found that the discussion about him was still on whether or not eating in the Magic Fish Shop could give people superpowers. Netizens were very stubborn and would continue to post comments even if they disappeared. They were not afraid of having their accounts blocked. They were very persistent in wanting to get to the bottom of the problem. There was no news about him and Qiu Yuqian at all.
Lin Jiu was at a loss. Did he guess wrong? Did Qiu Yuqian really just want to go with him to see Sister Wen, not to make a big news by secretly photographing her or being pregnant
"What are you looking for?" Si Xu's voice came over, and no emotion could be heard.
"No, I'm not looking for anything." Lin Jiu breathed a sigh of relief and put away his phone.
Si Xu handed him an envelope and said, "Open it and take a look."
Lin Jiu opened it doubtfully and took out a stack of photos. The people in the photos were Lin Jiu and Qiu Yuqian!
There are many photos, one taken in front of the Magic Fish shop and one taken in front of the hospital. In the photos, Qiu Yuqian is holding flowers in her arms and smiling sweetly. She is standing opposite Lin Jiu, and there is a sense of affection between them. Qiu Yuqian is not wearing a mask, as if she is afraid that others will not recognize her if she wears a mask.
There were a few more pieces of paper in the envelope, and the title of the first one was very eye-catching: Lin Qiu’s love affair is confirmed!
The second title: Lin Qiu has been secretly married for a long time, and Qiu Yuqian is very supportive of her husband’s career!
The third title: Lin Jiu accompanies Qiu Yuqian to see a doctor, and the two are about to welcome their second child!
…
Lin Jiu was so angry that his temples were throbbing. What kind of relationship is this?! Can it be more ridiculous?! If he was really secretly married, there would be no clues. These gossip media are so good at lying! He didn't even have the first child, but he had the second one. I don't know if the media is crazy or Qiu Yuqian and her agent are crazy. How could they think that netizens would believe such nonsense!
Lin Jiu angrily took out his cell phone and was about to go on Weibo to start a fight, but his cell phone was taken away.
"What do you want to post?"
Lin Jiu was very angry, "I warned her, she didn't listen, I'm going to tear her apart!"
Si Xu: "Are you tearing her apart or giving her traffic? If you tear her apart, it means you put her on an equal footing with you. The fact is that her popularity is far less than yours. Not many people knew her originally, but after you tear her apart, everyone knows her now. Do you think they were unprepared for these things? They were just waiting for you to issue a clarification announcement, and then you push the responsibility around. It's all written by unscrupulous media. She should sing and take on roles as she pleases. Even if the scandal is not good, it's fine as long as the purpose is achieved."
Lin Jiu's head hurt. "What should I do?"
Si Xu said calmly: "There are many ways to make her sink quietly, it depends on whether you are willing to do so."
Lin Jiu: “???”
Why should he be reluctant to give her up? Does she have anything to do with him
Si Xu looked cold, which made Lin Jiu feel uneasy. "I, I have nothing to be reluctant about."
Si Xu: "I will let Huasheng contact Fengshuo's senior management directly."
"Thanks."
These photos and reports are in Si Xu's hands, which means they were intercepted and could not be sent out.
The car drove to the entrance of the Magic Fish Shop. Lin Jiu opened the door and got out. Si Xu sat in the car without moving, with no intention of getting out.
Lin Jiu bent down and looked at him, "Aren't you going to get out of the car?"
"No, I have something else to do." Si Xu's voice was cold.
Lin Jiu was stunned, a little at a loss, "Oh, then, I won't bother you anymore."
Lin Jiu closed the car door and watched the car drive away. He suddenly felt very sad. His heart seemed to have a hole in it, empty, with cold wind blowing in. Lin Jiu felt uncomfortable and his nose was sour. He didn't want to be like this. He didn't want to get along with Si Xu like this. He didn't want Si Xu to alienate him, and he didn't want Si Xu to be indifferent to him. He couldn't stand the thought that after Si Xu knew the truth, his attitude would be even colder than it was now.
It was very cold outside. Lin Jiu turned around woodenly and wanted to go back to the store. He pulled the door a few times but it didn't open. Then he remembered that it was locked.
While looking for the key to open the door, the small incubator in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang". Lin Jiu bent down to pick it up, held it in his arms and opened the door. When he entered the room, he was almost tripped by the stand of the small blackboard. He hurriedly tried to support the small blackboard, and the small incubator fell for the second time.
The system is a bit unbearable.
Do you want to cry
Lin Jiu shook his head. He hadn't cried for a long time. Maybe it was because he cried too much when he was a child. Later, when he encountered big things, he would not cry anymore.
If the male god doesn't want you anymore, we will go back to the Demon Sea. You just need to bring me back to see the male god occasionally. Even if no one else wants you, I still have you. We are bound together. I will definitely not abandon you. Not only me, I can also split into many subsystems. If we are lonely, we can split the subsystems to play.
Lin Jiu put the small incubator on the bar. He didn't expect that the system that always criticized him would comfort him at this time. His cold heart felt a little warm...
The shop door was opened, Lin Jiu turned around and saw Si Xu standing at the door wearing a dark coat.
The person who just said he didn't want to cry now couldn't suppress the tears in his eyes.
"Do you like me?" Su asked him.
Lin Jiu tried hard to suppress the bitterness in his eyes.
Yes, he should like Si Xu, otherwise he wouldn’t feel so bad.
"Do you like me?" Si Xu asked again.
“…I like you. I like you.” Lin Jiu’s voice was choked.
Even if he finds out about that in the future and hates me, I don't want to be alienated by him now.
He had looked up to this man for too long.
Si Xu smiled and opened his arms, "Come, hug me."
Lin Jiu rushed over, and Si Xu wrapped him in his arms and hugged him tightly.
My true feelings were misplaced after all.
The system sighed deeply.
Lin Jiu: “…”
Si Xu kissed his forehead and said, "Why don't you say it if you like it?"
Lin Jiu said in a muffled voice, "I can't say."
Si Xu: "Why can't you say it?"
Lin Jiu: "You will regret it later, you will be angry, and you will hate me."
Si Xu laughed softly, "I really want to know, what could make me treat you like this? Is it more irritating than the fact that you are someone else's husband and someone else even has a second child?"
Lin Jiu: “…”
Si Xu held his shoulders, took a step back and looked at him, "Won't you explain it to me?"
Lin Jiu: “…”
"I'm innocent." Lin Jiu's desire was overwhelming, and he didn't want to break up just after confessing his love.
Si Xu: "My reputation is almost ruined."
Lin Jiu: “…I was wrong.”
At this time, no matter whose fault it is, it is his fault.
Si Xu was both angry and amused. It was a very bad thing when the person you liked was too attractive.
"Do you know what went wrong?"
"Wrong... Was it wrong to let her into the store?" Lin Jiu tried to reflect on himself.
Si Xu has lost his temper. "When you meet someone with ulterior motives, you shouldn't have any communication with her. A single word is a waste."
Lin Jiu turned his head and looked at the bar, "Should I not open the bar?"
Being harassed by customers every day seriously affected his work speed.
"She was sitting at the bar chatting with you?" Si Xu could almost imagine that scene.
Lin Jiu shook his head. "It's not really a chat. She talked and I listened. She said I was more suitable for food, that Chuangxing had become an empty shell and couldn't get up, that Lingchen was bought by Huasheng, that Huowei was sold to Fengshuo, and then she said Sister Wen was sick and she wanted to go with me to see Sister Wen, but I refused. After lunch, I went to the hospital and met Qiu Yuqian at the hospital gate..."
"Is that an encounter? That's waiting for you."
Si Xu sneered, "She has put in a lot of effort to get your attention."
Lin Jiu shut up silently and didn't dare to speak.
The customer in front of the bar was almost face to face with Lin Jiu, and Si Xu disliked the bar very much.
Lin Jiu was afraid that he would abolish the bar the next moment, so he said hurriedly: "I will change the system immediately, cancel the bar, and stop making money from these eight seats."
Si Xu: "If you want to expand the store, you can expand it on the left or right side. Chen Ji Noodle House and Tailor Shop can both be used. Or you can use the whole row here or the opposite side. You don't have to wrong yourself."
Lin Jiu: “…”
How many houses did you buy
Lin Jiu covered his chest and said, "You bought Uncle Xu's tailor shop as well?"
"He took the initiative to sell it, and I just bought it. Master Xu was taken in by his son, who said he would help take care of the children."
An old man is guarding his house and waiting for it to be demolished. Since there is no hope of demolition, he will no longer wait.
Whether this store can be expanded is not up to Lin Jiu. He has to ask the Demon Hunter Chef God System.
The Kitchen God System reminds you that your store’s revenue is insufficient to meet the requirements for expansion.
Lin Jiu: How much profit do you need
The Kitchen God System reminds you that when the revenue reaches 10 million, the size of the store can be doubled.
Lin Jiu: …
This 10 million is indeed a hurdle. The store has not earned that much since it opened, otherwise he would have been able to open blind boxes. In fact, the distance is not far. Last night he earned more than 2 million in one go.
Lin Jiu: "You can decorate one first, and I will pay your rent."
Si Xu raised an eyebrow, "Rent?"
Lin Jiu: "...what else?"
Should he buy it
Si Xu smiled and said, "Isn't this our common property?"
Lin Jiu was stunned at first, then her face flushed, "We're not married, so it's not considered joint property..."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Lin Jiu felt like his whole body was burning. What on earth was he talking about? It seemed like he really wanted to get married!
Si Xu smiled and hugged the person into his arms, "Want to get married? If so, I can think of a way."
Lin Jiu shook his head. It was too fast, and it was impossible to get married in China...
The Kitchen God System reminds you that when the host gets married, the Magic Fish Shop will be considered as pre-marital property. As the host's partner, you can enjoy the right to free meals in the shop.
Lin Jiu: …
There is no need to notarize the property so early!
When the host marries the male god, the male god can enjoy the right to know about the demon hunting system, has the qualification to enter the demon sea plane, can assist the host in completing tasks, and can also split out subsystems that are useful to the male god. These are the benefits of being the host's partner.
Lin Jiu: …
Lin Jiu: …
Lin Jiu: Whichever country’s marriage you recognize, we will get married right away.
Lin Jiu had no doubt that in addition to being a partner benefit, the system must have some dead stuff in it.
The system only recognizes marriages within the Demonic Sea plane.
Lin Jiu: …
Lin Jiu: Is it still possible for this marriage to be concluded
As long as the male god possesses 40% of the blood of the Demon Spirit Clan, he will be recognized by the Demon Sea Plane and a marriage contract with the Sirens Clan can be concluded.
Lin Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that there was not no hope.
Lin Jiu: What percentage of Si Xu's demonic bloodline is there now
One percent, the recessive gene is activated by 10%. As long as the host obtains the intermediate gene enhancer and can activate it successfully, the 40% blood requirement can be met and you can get married.
Friendly reminder, if the Sirens want to intermarry with other races, they must beware of the Haijia. The first intelligent race in the Demon Sea is the Haijia. They are aggressive and cruel by nature. They are powerful and have the ability to fight against powerful sea demons. When the civilization of the Demon Sea plane existed, the Haijia and the Sirens intermarried for generations. The Haijia cannot do without the comfort of the Sirens' songs. They have an instinctive possessiveness of the Sirens and will not allow the Sirens to intermarry with other races. The host must be careful.
Lin Jiu: …
Special note: The Haijia tribe particularly hates the Moling tribe. The Haijia tribe is the overlord of the Demon Sea, and the Moling tribe is the overlord of the land. The two major tribes hate each other. Marriage is a big deal, so please consider it carefully. If you choose the male god, not only will the male god be in danger, but you will also be in danger.
Lin Jiu: …
Lin Jiu realized a problem: Are the Haijia people also on the Earth plane
If he is not there, the system will not remind him in this way.
Ask for information about alien races. One question costs 10 magic points. Do you want to continue
Lin Jiu silently looked at his magic points and said, "Thank you, but no thanks."
"What are you thinking about?" Si Xu's voice rang in my ears.
Lin Jiu's breathing stagnated, and his ears instantly went numb, "I was thinking..."
The word "marriage" almost came out of my mouth!
Lin Jiu quickly changed the topic, "I'm thinking about your test results."
Si Xu looked at him. "I don't think so."
Lin Jiu's ears turned red, and she avoided the man's gaze guiltily, "Yes, I want to check the results."
I'm definitely not thinking about getting married!
Si Xu laughed, "Aren't you thinking about getting married?"
Lin Jiu: “…”
Lin Jiu: “…No!”
Si Xu was worried that he had angered the man, so he stroked his back and stroked his fur.
"The inspection results were very good, shocking the entire base."
Si Xu spoke so calmly, totally ignoring how shocked the researchers in the base were at the time, and how they suspected that all the books they had read for so many years were fake, and that their knowledge could not explain what happened to Si Xu at all.
Si Xu chose his words carefully, "Can I ask about that potion?"
"Not yet, I can tell you later."
As long as they use the intermediate gene enhancer, many things will be known to Si Xu...if they haven't broken up yet.
Si Xu thought for a moment, "Is it easy to get?"
"Not easy." In other words, it is very precious and each one is hard to get.
Of course, if he has a huge amount of magic points, he won't have to rely on luck to open a treasure chest to get it.
Si Xu looked confused, "Did you exchange or sacrifice anything?"
After confirming Lin Jiu's intentions, Si Xu was worried that Lin Jiu would trade his illness for something else in exchange for such a medicine.
"No, I got the potion purely by luck. I originally thought it was a useless thing, but I didn't expect it to be so useful."
Si Xu knew that Lin Jiu had many secrets. If Lin Jiu didn't tell him, he wouldn't take the initiative to find out. This potion was an exception.
Si Xu had used the potion himself and knew the magic of it. It must not be easy to obtain such a powerful potion. He was worried that Lin Jiu would do something to harm himself. The injuries on Lin Jiu's body and the blood in the bathtub became his nightmare. He didn't want Lin Jiu to get hurt again no matter what.
Si Xuzheng said: "At any time, you must protect yourself first and don't let yourself get hurt."
Lin Jiu nodded obediently. He didn't want to get hurt, but his luck was too bad. He was ambushed by a small blue demon. He was helpless.
Lin Jiu suddenly thought of the invisible fish and hurried to check the small insulated box that had fallen twice. The box was a mess, with invisible fish meat and crushed ice mixed together. The invisible fish meat was covered by the crushed ice, making it look like the crushed ice was suspended.
"What's inside?" Si Xu looked at it for a while but didn't understand.
His acceptance has now increased exponentially, and he is not surprised to see the "floating" ice fragments.
Lin Jiu's face fell, "It contains invisible fish meat, which is nutritious... It has a high content of magic essence. This kind of fish can improve immunity, destroy the activity of cancer cells, and promote the accelerated apoptosis of tumor cells. It is very suitable for cancer patients to eat."
"You went to give Jiang Xiwen fish?"
"Well, I prepared two copies, and I plan to send you one after I go to the hospital." But in the end, they were not sent out.
At this point, Lin Jiu couldn't help but feel aggrieved, "Don't you have something to do? Why are you back again?"
Si Xu held his hand and said, "I couldn't bear to leave, so I came back."
Si Xu really wanted to leave, but when he saw Lin Jiu standing alone at the door of the shop, distraught and looking like she was about to cry, Si Xu couldn't bear it and couldn't bear to leave, so he came back. He wanted to ask Lin Jiu again, if Lin Jiu really didn't like him, he would definitely restrain himself and not pester her.
When Lin Jiu said that he liked her, Si Xu was really happy.
In fact, it can be seen from Lin Jiu's various behaviors that he is not really without feelings for him. He has treated him too much, and he once doubted whether Lin Jiu worshipped him as an idol or really liked him, but before he could figure it out, he had already fallen in love.
Whether Lin Jiu really likes him or just worships him as an idol, Si Xu doesn't want to let him go. He can wait until the day when Lin Jiu truly likes him.
Lin Jiu's ears started to turn red again, "Fish, fish, do you still want to eat?"
"Eat." Si Xu let him go, never pushing him too hard again.
The invisible fish meat was not dirty, it was just mixed with the crushed ice. Lin Jiu took it to the kitchen to process it. Si Xu sat at the bar and watched Lin Jiu busy. The more she watched, the more sour she felt. When she thought of the customers sitting at the bar and watching her boyfriend busy, Si Xu felt very jealous.
Lin Jiu put the arranged invisible fish meat on a new plate and brought it to Si Xu, who looked gloomy and puzzled.
You were fine just now, why are you suddenly unhappy again
"What's wrong?" Lin Jiu asked.
Si Xu: "It's okay."
How could he tell Lin Jiu that he was jealous of a customer? Absolutely impossible.
You cannot use chopsticks to eat invisible fish, you can only use your hands with gloves.
Dinner time was approaching and Lin Jiu was about to start preparing dinner. Si Xu really had something to do and did not stay for dinner. He left after eating the invisible fish because he still had to go to the base.
Before leaving, Si Xu said, "Captain Lu asked me to ask you how much Huahong fruit wine is left. They need to purchase some."
Lin Jiu: "How much do you need?"
Si Xu looked at Lin Jiu deeply, "Make as much preparation as possible. Something happened in the coastal cities abroad, and our coastal cities are also a little uneasy. Maybe what you said is right."
Lin Jiu: "Okay."
"I'm leaving." Si Xu turned and left. He walked to the door and looked back to see Lin Jiu still looking at him.
Si Xu turned back, held his face, kissed him on the lips, and was reluctant to leave for a long time.
"I'm leaving." Si Xu said softly.
"Well, be safe, call me if you have any problem..."
Speaking of making phone calls, Lin Jiu was a little stuck, as he seemed to rarely answer Si Xu's calls.
Si Xu was amused by him and opened the door and left.
