Bai Xiaoyue has no intention of digging into Pan Ming's deepest secrets. She just wants to know what happened outside the planet, and how to use the news to save her life. The best way to know outside news is to come to a reference room. There is no one guarding the reference room, and there is an empty garden corridor outside it, as long as you have permission, you can go there. Unfortunately, Bai Xiaoyue does not have permission to leave the castle, nor does she have permission to enter the reference room. Therefore, she had to trick Xie Qingcheng, who might have authority, out, hoping to use her hand to go to the reference room.
Of course, before entering, the two robots behind him had to be distracted to prevent them from breaking things. Thinking of this, Bai Xiaoyue accompanied Xie Qingcheng to appreciate the beauty of the garden, while thinking about how to get rid of the robot. The garden is a real garden, and all the beautiful plants that can survive on this planet or transplanted from outside are planted in it. Pan Ming spent a lot of effort to build a huge and beautiful garden underground. People don't understand why the master wastes energy building such a useless place that takes up space.
Just when Bai Xiaoyue was thinking about what to do, Pan Ming's voice appeared, and Bai Xiaoyue's face turned pale instantly in fright, as if a catastrophe was imminent.
"Qingcheng, why do you want to come and see me?" Pan Ming walked over, looked at Xie Qingcheng with a smile on his face, and didn't give Bai Xiaoyue a single glance, but Bai Xiaoyue couldn't help but her hands and feet were cold, she was too scared.
"Look at you?" Xie Qingcheng pretended not to see Bai Xiaoyue's fear, and said incomprehensibly, "What are you looking at, are you here? I just stayed in the room a little bored, and no one talked to me, and then Xiaoyue Let’s just go out and take a walk. I heard from Xiaoyue that there is a huge and beautiful garden and a library here, so we came here. I didn’t expect to meet you, Pan Ming, but it was a surprise.”
Pan Ming has studied Xie Qingcheng's character and knows that she is not lying. Xie Qingcheng himself likes plants, and his mother also likes plants. It can be said that this garden was also specially built by Pan Ming for his mother. Apart from liking plants, Xie Qingcheng also likes books, especially paper books. Knowing about Xie Qingcheng's hobby, Pan Ming specially put some paper books in the reference room, thinking that he could please Xie Qingcheng's favor, but unexpectedly, Xie Qingcheng never came out of the room.
If Xie Qingcheng didn't leave the room, Pan Ming's chances of being exposed would be reduced, and he was delighted. But Xie Qingcheng didn't go out, and none of the things he had prepared to please Xie Qingcheng would be useful, which made Pan Ming feel depressed again, lamenting that life cannot be perfect. I thought his flattery was useless, but Bai Xiaoyue persuaded Xie Qingcheng to come out and brought him here. For a while, Pan Ming didn't want to pursue Bai Xiaoyue's petty thoughts—she couldn't escape her control anyway—and was only thinking about how to use them to increase his favorability in Xie Qingcheng's heart.
"I've been a little busy during this period, and I didn't take good care of Qingcheng. It's my fault." Pan Ming said, "I usually do business here, and I was just about to find you when I finished. I didn't expect to see you and Xiaoyue in the garden just after I came out." Fortunately, I saw you, or I would have missed it if I went to the castle to find you. Or, show you the garden?"
"Okay, this garden is very beautiful. I really didn't expect it to be an underground garden." Xie Qingcheng said, "If you want me to say, the designer who designed this garden is too good, you, the master, have earned a lot of money."
"Haha, I'm honored that you like this garden, Qingcheng." Pan Ming was a little proud.
Xie Qingcheng was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly realized, and said with a look of disbelief: "Wow, you designed this garden, Pan Ming, I didn't expect you to be so powerful!"
"Thank you for the compliment. It's just a hobby. It's hard to be elegant." Pan Ming said modestly, "Xiao Wu, you and Xiaoyue can help us get some fruits. The weather is fine today. Miss Xie and I can sit here Sit down." Pan Ming led Xie Qingcheng to a chair in the garden, and opened the chair for Xie Qingcheng in a gentlemanly manner, "I wonder if Qingcheng would like to show her face?"
"Of course!" Xie Qingcheng smiled and did not refuse.
At this time, Bai Xiaoyue already knew that Pan Ming meant not to pursue it, so she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After a salute, she was about to leave when she heard Xie Qingcheng ask: "Pan Ming, what have you been up to these days? Why do you feel like something big happened?" eavesdrop.
"Oh, it's really a major incident outside." Pan Ming knew that Xie Qingcheng must have noticed the tense atmosphere in the castle during this period, and he had already thought about the answer.
"You also know that the planet we are on now belongs to the Scorpio galaxy, and the Scorpio galaxy happens to be the battlefield between humans and Zerg. This kind of front line is not where we should come, but who told me that this planet belongs to me? As a planet The lord is still a lord who only has one planet in his hand, so I have no choice but to come here." In the words, Pan Ming felt a little lonely.
"Don't think like this, this is your territory." Xie Qingcheng could only comfort and say, "And your territory is well managed, I think your parents will be proud of you. And if you weren't here, if This planet has been abandoned by people, I'm sure no one will treat it, and it's already dead."
"Yes, it was my fate to meet you, Qingcheng." Pan Ming smiled, and continued, "But now I'm in trouble. Originally, TX-28 was a small planet on the edge of the Scorpio galaxy, and it couldn't reach the position of the battlefield. It is also because of this that I was able to mine here instead of being asked to leave by the military. However, during this period of time, the Zerg did not know what went crazy, and even started to attack the Scorpio galaxy. Now most of the Scorpio galaxy is owned by the Zerg. , our planet now also belongs to the territory of the Zerg."
"Because TX-28 does not have any properties, and the surface temperature of TX-28 is too good. We have been hiding underground all this time. The Zerg did not stay on the surface of the planet TX-28, nor did we find any trace of us. Even our initial I didn’t find any sign of the Zerg, but some time ago I suddenly received a distress signal from the transport ship of the mining company after encountering the Zerg, and then I realized that our area has been occupied by the Zerg, and we have completely lost contact with the outside world.”
"What!" Xie Qingcheng was extremely surprised, "How could such a thing happen?"
"In fact, it is true." Pan Ming nodded solemnly, "I'm sorry, Qingcheng, I didn't help you contact your relatives and send you back to Triumph Star as soon as possible. If you left this place earlier, you would never have encountered such a situation." Maybe you have returned to the university star and resumed classes now, instead of accompanying me on TX-28 to worry about it."
Bai Xiaoyue, who heard Pan Ming's words at the same time, couldn't help calling Pan Ming a liar. Obviously, when they moved to this planet three months ago, this planet was already occupied by the Zerg. Pan Ming's so-called occupation by the Zerg was completely nonsense. Bai Xiaoyue couldn't help but think about it. Although Pan Ming was clearly deceiving Xie Qingcheng, the tense atmosphere in the dungeon during this period is unmistakable. Something must have happened outside.
As Bai Xiaoyue followed Zergman Five to leave, she thought: Pan Ming and the Zergmen should be so nervous because there must be enemies outside. According to Zerg Five, if the Zerg will not harm the Zerg, then the enemy outside must not be the Zerg. If it's not the Zerg, then it must be the army of the Empire or the Federation. This area has long been occupied by the Zerg, and this planet is not very eye-catching at all. Logically speaking, Pan Ming shouldn't pay so much attention to it. So that means that the enemy outside is very powerful, maybe the empire and the Federation have joined forces to attack the Zerg, and they have begun to pay attention to this seemingly useless planet. Could it be that they knew that Xie Qingcheng was hidden here
Bai Xiaoyue couldn't help but be taken aback by her own guess. To be able to know the flawless YX-28 from the university star on the other side of the long interstellar, the power of the Xie family should not be underestimated. Now Bai Xiaoyue is particularly conflicted. She hopes that someone will come to her, so that she can escape from the clutches of Pan Ming and the insects and return to the empire. But Bai Xiaoyue was a little afraid that someone would come to her. After all, she had been with the bug people for so long, and those who came here might not believe that she was a normal person at all.
Moreover, she also knew about Pan Ming's human experimentation. Whether it was in the empire or in the federation, human experimentation was a heinous crime. She can be regarded as Pan Ming's subordinate now. Pan Ming is a perverted human experimenter. If they don't believe her innocence and think that she is also a participant in the human experiment, they would rather kill by mistake than let her go. Little life is estimated to have no hope.
Is there really no way to have the best of both worlds? Bai Xiaoyue was so anxious that something naturally appeared on her face. Insect Five really likes Bai Xiaoyue. Seeing her complexion, he immediately asked with concern: "What's the matter, baby, do you feel uncomfortable? Otherwise, you can sit here and rest, and the master told you to take it." I will prepare things."
Bai Xiaoyue's heart moved, she turned her head, and for the first time seriously looked at the only Insect Man Five who cared about her in this place. He was not the most handsome she had ever seen, nor was he the most handsome, nor the most capable. He was not even considered a person, but an experimental product that survived Pan Ming's operating table. He doesn't talk sweet words, he doesn't please people, and he doesn't hide anything from himself. However, Insect Man Five is the only one in this dark place who is willing to care about her, the only one who can say he likes her, and the only one who really treats her as a human woman, even if he is an insect man.
Bai Xiaoyue bit her lips, and it took a long time to make up her mind, and said, "Fifth brother, do you really like me, do you really want to be with me, just the two of us?"
