Chapter 281 Xia Xiaoyu's Troubles
When Xia Xiaoyu woke up, she was already lying on her bed in the dormitory. Su Ming was sitting next to her, browsing something on his tablet.
"Su Ming." Xia Xiaoyu called softly.
"You're awake. I was really scared. Why were you working so hard?" Su Ming let out a long sigh and reached out to touch Xia Xiaoyu's hair.
"I'll pay attention next time." Xia Xiaoyu replied.
She said this, but she didn't intend to stop next time.
There was no way she was going to give up; she was determined to master the art of alienation.
Su Ming looked at Xia Xiaoyu deeply, as if his eyes could see through the other person's thoughts.
Xia Xiaoyu seemed to have noticed Su Ming's gaze, and thought of Su Ming's special intuition. She was afraid that her thoughts would be seen through, so she turned over.
"Be moderate." Su Ming said.
Xia Xiaoyu turned her back to him and said nothing. It was obvious that she felt that silence meant she had not agreed.
Su Ming sighed, feeling very complicated. He could understand why Xia Xiaoyu worked so hard. The only reason was for him.
Over the years, Xia Xiaoyu has never thought about making herself stronger. She is actually a girl who is very content with being ordinary. Her current state of mind of doing whatever it takes to become stronger is all because of him.
"I tested Xia Xiaoyu's exclusive product. It cannot completely transfer all the sequelae, just like it cannot transfer the aging of the human body. The effect it exerts varies depending on the injury to the human body.
It cannot restore congenital disabilities to normal, nor can it make healed scars disappear. I think if a limb is healed after being mutilated, then the lost arm will never come back. So, the damage caused by taking medicine to your body is not completely eliminated. It is not good for you to rely too much on medicine like this."
"Xia Xiaoyu's exclusive name? Is that the name of that ability?" Xia Xiaoyu muttered, with a slightly happy tone, "Did you choose this name just to please me?"
"No, this power is reserved for you." Su Ming said.
Xia Xiaoyu was silent.
She was silent for a long time before she said, "Do you think we will both grow old and die together? Or will we both die in a battle in the end?"
"Why do you ask such a stupid question? Do you think I will die if I answer that?" Su Ming frowned, feeling weird.
To be honest, he is not good at dealing with such corny questions.
"Well... I understand. I will exercise restraint in the future." Xia Xiaoyu said softly, as if admitting her mistake.
Hearing her promise, Su Ming felt relieved. He knew that Xia Xiaoyu would do what she said. Since this was related to their future, she would not fool around.
"I have told the deputy director about the mysterious eye, and she will help with the investigation. Also, I will be going out of the island with the deputy director soon. When I leave here, you have to keep an eye on Ding Yu. He should not leak your information, but you still have to keep an eye on him just in case." Su Ming said.
"Are you leaving the island?" Xia Xiaoyu suddenly perked up and turned to look at Su Ming in surprise.
She didn't know whether she was a free person or not. She had never tried to leave the island, nor did she dare to leave.
So when Su Ming left Dongyang Island, she could only stay on Dongyang Island alone... and live as a widow.
So, the second question that arises from this is, if Su Ming frequently leaves the island to carry out missions in the future, what should she do? Can she really only stay on the island alone?
Xia Xiaoyu couldn't stand the thought of this situation. She must follow Su Ming out of the island in the future, but the problem was how could she leave the island?
Su Ming said last time that there is a safe way to leave the Forbidden Island. Minister Sylvie once told Su Ming that as long as he mastered the unique advanced combat skill - his own barrier, he would be able to enter and exit the Forbidden Island safely.
"It seems... I can only learn how to create my own barrier." Xia Xiaoyu said to herself solemnly.
Su Ming glanced at Xia Xiaoyu in confusion, thinking that Xia Xiaoyu's goal jump was really big. At present, he didn't even have a clue whether he could learn alienation, but he actually wanted to learn to create his own barrier. It was even more exaggerated than trying to run before learning to walk.
At this time, Su Ming didn't know that Xia Xiaoyu already had a plan in mind. She decided to go to the spiritual salt field to eat A-grade spiritual salt and work hard to improve her abnormal value. The level of the abnormal value is directly related to whether she can comprehend alienation.
Although her outlier value was already ridiculously high, she hoped it could be higher, so that maybe she could realize alienation.
"When are you leaving?"
"It will take some time. During this time, I will continue to practice, but you can't work so hard."
“…”
"Don't worry, it's okay. I already know how to make you learn alienation. As long as I learn to wrap the energy around people, you can experience the high-dimensional thread. With your understanding, you will definitely be able to learn it." Su Ming said.
Xia Xiaoyu pouted and looked at Su Ming with a touching expression. She wanted to say something, but felt that those words were too corny, so she hesitated for a long time and said softly: "I will try my best!"
"Then you should take a good rest. If you want to train, you can practice taijutsu or something. I'll be back first."
As soon as Su Ming stood up, Xia Xiaoyu grabbed his hand.
"Aren't you going to sleep here tonight?"
"I should go back to the dormitory and sleep. I haven't been back for a long time."
"Okay." Xia Xiaoyu let go reluctantly.
…
When Su Ming returned to his dormitory, Chu Xiaobai was playing games on the bed, and Alice was playing the game with Chu Xiaobai holding the controller.
Just as Su Ming was wondering why Alice was playing games with Chu Xiaobai here, Alice also saw Su Ming. She screamed, threw away the game controller and rushed towards Su Ming.
"dad!"
"Oh, good boy." Su Ming touched Alice's little head.
After such a long time, Su Ming has almost gotten used to Alice calling him dad, but he has not yet figured out the difference between being a father and being a brother. He feels that apart from being called dad by Alice, he is completely Alice's brother.
But there is a saying that goes, "The eldest brother is like a father." Maybe father and brother are similar.
"Hey, boss, you're here."
When Chu Xiaobai saw Su Ming coming in, he smiled shyly, raised his hand to greet Su Ming, and his attitude was more attentive than ever before.
You know, when Su Ming came back to the dormitory before, he would lie on the bed and wouldn't even look at him. The only way to get along well was to play games with him.
But today...Chu Xiaobai seems to be a little abnormal.
Chu Xiaobai stood up, walked to Alice shyly, and asked softly: "Alice, do you still want to play?"
Alice shook her head obediently: "No more playing."
"Oh, then are we going to eat here later? I'm going to the cafeteria to get food later. I'll bring you whatever you want to eat."
Alice thought for a moment after hearing this, then looked up at Su Ming and asked, "Dad, are you eating here?"
