The next day, dawn was just breaking.Lin Zichen acutely sensed the faint light piercing through the curtains and woke up on time from his sleep, feeling a bit heavy.
He opened his eyes and saw Shen Qinghan, who had originally curled up in his arms, was now lying on top of him.
Her head resting on his chest.
Her hand beside him.
A long, fair leg draped over his waist.
Almost her entire body was on him.
The sleeping position didn’t look very elegant, but it was quite tempting.
“She’s using me as a body pillow,”
Lin Zichen chuckled, gently removed Shen Qinghan’s hand and leg from his body, trying not to wake her up.
However, Shen Qinghan today was not as deeply asleep as usual.
With just a light touch, she shuddered like a frightened rabbit.
Then, without even opening her eyes, she cried out with a face of anxiety and fear,
“Don’t go, Xiao Chen, don’t go!”
As she said this, she instinctively clung to Lin Zichen, holding on very tightly, and refused to let go.
Lin Zichen figured that this naughty girl must have had a nightmare, so he gently patted her shoulder, soothing her in a gentle voice, “I’m right here, I’m not going anywhere.”
“…”
Shen Qinghan slowly opened her eyes upon hearing this, and when she saw Lin Zichen by her side, her entire being let out a sigh of relief.
She took a moment, looked into Lin Zichen’s eyes, and said with lingering fear, “I just dreamt that you were kidnapped by the Divine Plant Cult, it really scared me.”
Lin Zichen laughed, “It’s not that bad, getting kidnapped is just getting kidnapped, it’s not like dying. There’ll be chances to meet again in the future, no need to collapse like that.”
Shen Qinghan pursed her lips, her voice tinged with a hint of grievance, “If you were taken away, it might be a very long time before we can meet again, but I don’t want to be apart from you for even a day…”
“Then let’s not be apart for a day,”
Lin Zichen said, caressing Shen Qinghan’s cheek with a tender tone.
He said they wouldn’t part for a day, but he knew very well it wasn’t realistic.
He only said so because Shen Qinghan needed comforting.
Shen Qinghan, holding his hand, said, “Now that you’re targeted by the Divine Plant Cult, you must be careful in the future. Things like external combat training and out-of-school missions, if you can avoid them, then avoid them.”
Lin Zichen, “Alright, I won’t participate in any.”
Shen Qinghan sighed, “I used to think it was wonderful to be a genius, but after becoming one, I realized it’s not all it seems. To think that being a genius means being targeted by the Divine Plant Cult, it might be better not to be one at all. It would be nicer to be like my parents, teaching at school every day, then reading books at home after work.”
“…”
Lin Zichen, “Being an ordinary person seems nice, but it’s predicated on a safe living environment. If one day the environment becomes harsh, and exotic beasts are everywhere, ordinary people will struggle even to survive.”
Shen Qinghan, “Exotic beasts everywhere, that’s impossible, isn’t it?”
Lin Zichen expressed his pessimism, “It’s not impossible, it’s a hundred percent certain to happen one day.”
“Ah? How could that be…”
Shen Qinghan frowned slightly, unable to imagine such a day coming.
Lin Zichen did not explain further, simply stating, “The Earth now may seem calm on the surface, but undercurrents are swirling. Who knows when a terrible beast disaster might erupt. Just like what we saw in the news as kids about Sakura Sea Country, where multiple cities were devoured by suddenly emerging giant Mutant Rats, with massive civilian casualties. So, the idea of being an ordinary person and how nice it is, it’s better not to have it. We must prepare for the worst in advance. Before disaster strikes, we must strive to evolve as much as possible, to improve our strength, and have the ability to protect ourselves and our family.”
“…”
After hearing Lin Zichen’s words, Shen Qinghan’s expression became grave, “Alright, I understand. I will definitely strive to evolve from now on, not slacking even for a moment.”
Seeing the naughty girl get all serious, almost distressed, Lin Zichen laughed, “You don’t need to be so worried. What I just said are all just my own speculations, not necessarily accurate.”
Shen Qinghan seriously, “They will be accurate. I believe you.”
Lin Zichen, speechless, “Look at what you’re saying. It’s best if such things don’t turn out true.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Qinghan suddenly realized she had misspoken and immediately covered her mouth with her hand.
But soon, she let go and spat several times, her demeanor becoming even more serious than before as she corrected herself, “They won’t be accurate, I don’t believe you!”
“Do you have to be so funny?”
Lin Zichen couldn’t help but laugh, amused by Shen Qinghan’s sudden change of heart, finding this naughty girl inexplicably cute at times.
Just then, Shen Qinghan asked, “Xiao Chen, with you being such a genius, do you think the baby Aunt Xin is carrying will also be a genius like you?”
The question took Lin Zichen aback, leaving him unsure of how to answer for a moment.
He wondered, was his talent something his parents had given him?
To be more precise, was the cheat his parents had given him?
It didn’t seem likely.
If not, then the unborn sibling of his, whether a little brother or sister, might find talent a bit of a challenge.
But it didn’t really matter.
The little one would be born with an awesome big brother and sister-in-law. Evolution resources, for one, would definitely be plentiful.
With ample evolutionary resources to feed on, even a pig could evolve into a porcine deity.
Thinking this, Lin Zichen answered, “They should be a genius too.”
