Xie Sen was relieved to see this. He said goodbye to his contracted beasts and left the feeding area. The four of them went their separate ways at the gate. Bai Jiao went home alone, and Long Teng went to find his grandfather. Xie Sen and MeiIn went together.
Xie Sen and MeiIn returned to the apartment. They went straight to their respective bedrooms to take a shower and change their clothes.
Xie Sen changed into a loose T-shirt and knee-length pants. After drying his hair, he went straight to the kitchen to make stewed potatoes and meat. He also cut half of a watermelon and put it on a plate.
The two of them had a sumptuous lunch together. MeiIn consciously went to wash the dishes.
Xie Sen sat on the sofa and was about to browse the news. Just as he entered the Star Web, a Tuan Tuan flew in from the window with a chirp.
It landed directly on the coffee table and pointed at Xie Sen with its short wings. One of its claws kept raising and stomping on the table. It kept chirping, and its tone was very angry. However, because it was young and its voice was very clear, Xie Sen didn't feel angry.
Xie Sen looked at it for a while before he realized that it was stomping its feet when it was angry.
"Haha," he couldn't help but laugh. After thinking for a while, he roughly understood why it was angry. He got up and took out a large piece of melon rind from the fridge. He placed it flat on his hand and said, "Sorry, we had to go into the forest. I promise I'll tell you in advance next time."
"Chirp chirp!" Tuan Tuan stomped its little claws again. Its eyes were glued to the melon rind and it didn't move.
Xie Sen thought that this little thing was quite vengeful. He lowered his voice and said, "You weren't here when we left, so I forgot to tell you. It's my fault. I'll tell you in advance next time."
He didn't know why the Tuan Tuan in the book would attack Star City with MeiIn. He could only guess that it was because it grew up with MeiIn and was taught by MeiIn to hate humans. Now that MeiIn was different, its living environment was also different, so he wasn't too worried.
He raised the Tuan Tuan freely. The Tuan Tuan did not need him to take care of it. The Tuan Tuan Tuan took care of its own food. He only needed to give it some snacks.
"Chirp!" The Tuan Tuan let out a clear cry. Seeing that he had admitted his mistake, it flapped its wings and landed on the melon skin in his hand. It lowered its head and began to eat.
Xie Sen placed the melon rind on the coffee table. The Tuan Tuan did not move at all. It stood steadily on the rind and was moved along with it.
MeiIn came out of the kitchen and stood behind the sofa. She put her hand on Xie Sen's shoulder and looked at Tuan Tuan indifferently. "Are you taking a nap?"
Xie Sen nodded. "I'll go after watching the news."
After the scarlet energy was recovered, he would lose control every twelve hours after waking up. This morning, he woke up at five o 'clock. If he did not rest and something happened in the afternoon, it would be very dangerous.
He clicked on the news. MeiIn stood behind him and bent over to read the news with him. The top few news articles were almost all about contract beasts.
One of them was particularly conspicuous. "The most powerful league champions in all of history! They entered the dangerous forest area unscathed and brought back a large number of high-level contract beasts. Who are they? "
Xie Sen did not think much of it at first, but when he saw the title, he suddenly felt that they seemed to be very powerful.
He clicked on it. There were a few pictures at the top. One was when the four of them entered the forest and sat on the aircraft when they passed through the checkpoint. The other pictures were when they came back. Except for one picture of the four of them, the rest of the pictures were of contract beasts, and they were very conspicuous.
There were exaggerated words at the back of the pictures, bragging about them. Then, it was about the background of the four of them.
"The four of them are so powerful. Do you think they are just ordinary fresh graduates? No, after investigation, each of them has a big background! "
"MeiIn, the illegitimate son of the Cox family, the master of the A-class giant lion. The Cox family publicly announced that they had cut ties with him. However, as soon as they announced that, MeiIn became famous. I don't know if he wants to prove his strength and change the Cox family's mind. I also don't know if the Cox family regrets their decision to cut ties with him."
Seeing this, Xie Sen heard MeiIn make a "tsk" sound with a strong sense of sarcasm.
"Bai Jiao, born in the Bai Medical Family, the master of the B-class female contract beast. She won the first place in her three years of university. Her strength is not to be underestimated. Because she is a female and her contract beast's level is too high, she was ostracized by others. Now it seems that maybe the strong don't even bother to play with ordinary people."
"Long Teng, born in the business giant Long family, the master of the S-class wyvern. He has always kept a low profile. If it wasn't for this contract beast incident, his identity wouldn't have been exposed. His combat power is off the charts. He is a famous battle maniac in Star City University."
"Xie Sen, the adopted son of the Xie family, an orphan. His identity is the most inconspicuous. However, according to many investigations, he is very unusual. He is the master of a plant-type contract beast that hasn't appeared for many years. He has a strong affinity. According to speculation, this contract beast incident may have a lot to do with him. "
Xie Sen couldn't help but sigh. "These reporters are all detectives, right?"
MeiIn looked at him. "You don't like these reports?"
Xie Sen shook his head. "Not really. With such a big movement, it's impossible not to be reported. It's just that it's very troublesome to be recognized outside or at work."
He was used to being an ordinary person and was not used to being noticed. Just thinking about being recognized at any time made him feel very uncomfortable.
MeiIn thought for a moment and patted him on the shoulder. "Go and rest first."
Xie Sen nodded and got up. He thought for a moment. "I have to go to work tomorrow. I'll go to the Plant Research Institute in the afternoon. Do you have any plans?"
He had to say that when he met Li You, Li You valued plants even more than his own life. This gave him a great shock.
He felt that he should change his attitude towards plants. Although he always knew that plants were rare on Brent Star, he didn't really pay attention to them.
According to A Dan, different energy in the system corresponded to different colors of plants. Now that the red energy was recovered, the red plants in the system should be able to be planted.
He was going to personally send the pepper seeds to the Plant Research Institute so that the pepper could be mass-produced and increase the variety of vegetables for Brent Star. At the same time, it would be convenient for him to eat pepper in the future.
If the plants in the system were not used to attack, but to eat, pepper was the most energy-consuming of the three plants he had activated.
A red pepper was not big. If he really stir-fried a plate of pepper to cook, the spiciness must not be too high. At least a dozen peppers would be needed to stir-fry a plate.
This was equivalent to a plate of pepper consuming more than a dozen energy points. He simply couldn't bear to spend so much energy. It should be known that he could only get a little more than 20 energy points a day on average.
MeiIn made a decision. "I'll go with you."
The two went directly to the Plant Research Institute after their afternoon nap. To avoid being stopped at the door, Xie Sen contacted Dean Ma on the way. Dean Ma was surprised and pleasantly surprised. He expressed a warm welcome.
When they got off the shuttle, Li You, dressed in a white uniform, greeted them with a smile on his dark face. "Welcome, welcome."
Xie Sen sighed. "Is the Research Institute so busy? You came straight to work after coming out of the forest? "
Li You smiled. "I was impatient. The plant I picked is a tomato. It's rich in vitamins. I want to study it as soon as possible. I hope it can be planted successfully." He took the two into the Research Institute and explained, "Dean Ma is in the Research Institute. He originally wanted to pick you up in person."
Xie Sen hurriedly said, "You're too polite. I'll be very embarrassed if I bring you any trouble."
"No," Li You smiled. "Dean Ma is very excited. He said he invited you several times, but you refused."
Li You said and took them through the three buildings in the front row of the Research Institute. They came to an endless plain made up of pieces of land. At the front of each piece of land was a house.
Li You pointed to the houses and introduced them to him. "These are the Research Institute. Different plants are cultivated in each piece of land." He pointed to the far right. "Over there are cabbages and potatoes. They are the vegetables with the highest production and the most stable growth."
After a while, they arrived at the door of a Research Institute. Li You swiped his fingerprint and the door opened. He turned sideways and said, "Dean Ma is inside."
Xie Sen followed Li You into the Research Institute. He saw a variety of instruments placed everywhere in the Research Institute. There were many transparent boxes on the walls. The bottom of the boxes was soil. There were LED screens outside the boxes. There were various numerical displays on the screens. He only understood the temperature and humidity.
He roughly understood that these boxes were probably all incubators. The environments inside were different. They were used to study the best incubation method.
Sure enough, Li You explained the use of these boxes to them. It was just as he thought.
Following Li You into the Research Institute, Xie Sen saw a tall and thin man. The man was adjusting the numerical values of an incubator. He looked calm and focused. He carefully adjusted the numerical values and then turned to look at them.
His gaze fell directly on Xie Sen. His gaze was hot. He took a few steps forward and stretched out his hand. He went straight to the point and said, "Welcome. You took the initiative to come to the Research Institute. You must have something important to say."
Xie Sen shook hands with him and took out a whole pepper. He put it in his palm. "I'm here to give you the pepper seeds. At the same time, I want to talk about cooperation with your Research Institute."
Ma Qun looked at the pepper seeds and sighed. "We tried all kinds of methods last time, but we couldn't make it germinate. We couldn't plant it."
Xie Sen said, "It can be planted now."
Ma Qun heard his tone and couldn't help but look at the pepper. "Is there anything different?"
"It's really different," Xie Sen said. He couldn't explain it in detail. He could only vaguely say, "I'm sure it can be planted. How about we talk about cooperation?"
Dean Ma: "Okay."
Xie Sen said directly, "I know that the vegetables you grow will be sold in cooperation with the Fuji Supermarket. I hope that I can get a dividend from the chilies you grow. At the same time, you can give me some every month."
Ma Qun pondered for a moment. "Your request is reasonable. However, it takes time to grow chilies. If the planting is successful, we won't sell the first few batches of products. We will only keep the seeds. This way, we can grow more widely. So, we probably can't give you anything in the short term."
He paused and suggested, "How about the Research Institute give you a reward? This is also a method we often use. We will give rewards to the discoverers of new species to promote the development of plant research. "
He smiled. "Even if the cultivation fails, the reward will not be taken back."
Xie Sen shook his head. "I don't want the reward."
The plants redeemed by the system were easy to grow. The quality of the fruits was also very good. He had planted chilies in the apocalypse. He was very clear about the growth cycle of chilies. It only took more than two months from cultivation to fruiting. Then, it would alternate between flowering and fruiting. The process of producing large amounts of fruits would last about two months.
With the professional equipment of the Research Institute, it was equivalent to a greenhouse. There were no seasonal restrictions. The chilies could be produced all year round. In this way, the chilies could be sold.
Ma Qun smiled. "It seems that you are very confident."
Xie Sen nodded. "Yes, I can only provide the seeds. I can't help you with anything else. I only want 10% of the profits. If there are other plants in the future, it will be the same. Can you accept it?"
Ma Qun asked, "How much will you give?"
Xie Sen thought for a while and said, "You can do as you wish at the beginning. After a year at the latest, it will be fixed at 10 kilograms per month."
"10 kilograms?" Ma Qun was surprised. Chilies were different from potatoes and cabbages. They were very light. 10 kilograms was quite a lot.
Xie Sen smiled. "Believe me, this is not difficult."
Ma Qun looked at his expression and smiled. "You are so sure. I almost suspect that you have planted it before. I have to say, I am looking forward to it."
Xie Sen also smiled. "Dean Ma, don't forget that I am a plant-based expert. I know the growth cycle of chilies."
Ma Qun pondered for a moment and nodded. "Okay, I agree to your proposal." He said and quickly drafted the contract. After Xie Sen confirmed that there were no mistakes, both parties entered their fingerprints.
Xie Sen handed the chilies to Ma Qun. Ma Qun took them with a serious expression.
Xie Sen looked at the remaining 130 points of energy. He thought for a while and took back the red energy. He did not need energy urgently at the moment, so he simply exchanged for 10 more chilies. This way, he would have a lot of seeds for the first batch.
He turned his ring and pretended to take it out from his backpack. He then handed the 10 chilies to Ma Qun.
Ma Qun took them in surprise and could not contain his excitement. "I will go and plant them immediately."
Xie Sen thought back to when he planted the chilies. "The temperature of the seeds should not be too low. It should be around 20 to 30 degrees."
Ma Qun looked at him and could not help but invite him again. "Come and work at the research institute. You are a plant-based Beast Master and have solid professional knowledge. This is the most suitable place for you."
Xie Sen thought to himself. No matter how good it was, there was no way to collect energy.
He shook his head. "Thank you. I am very satisfied with my current job and I like it very much. I don't want to change jobs for the time being."
Ma Qun sighed in disappointment. "I will say the same thing again. If you change your mind, the research institute will always welcome you."
"Okay." Xie Sen smiled and left.
After he left, Ma Qun and Li You immediately went to the research institute next door and started to cultivate the chilies seeds.
On the way back, Xie Sen remembered that the meat in the fridge was almost finished. The two went to the supermarket to buy some more meat before returning to the apartment.
When MeiIn returned to the apartment, he received a message. He looked at it and said to Xie Sen, "I am going back to the bedroom to take care of some things. Call me if you need me."
Xie Sen nodded and put the meat in the fridge. He sat on the sofa and rested for a while. He felt particularly bored with nothing to do. He thought for a while and called A Dan.
Hearing A Dan's response, he asked directly, "Can you feel the other energy?"
A Dan sounded depressed. "No, I can't feel it. It is very likely that it is not on Brent Star. The energy I have now is not enough to sense the energy of an alien planet."
Xie Sen comforted him. "It's okay. You will only lose control after 12 hours. It is quite safe."
"No," A Dan became agitated. "If your soul is unstable for a long time, your body will have problems. You must find the energy as soon as possible."
Xie Sen was puzzled. "I have already recovered the red energy. Didn't you say that my body will get better every time I recover a type of energy?"
"That's right, but … if you lack the five types of energy, you will have a big problem after a year. With one more type of energy, your stability period will be extended by half a year. You have been here for more than a month. If you don't recover the second type of energy within a year and five months, your uncontrollable time will start to become unstable. Then, then …"
A Dan's voice became lower and lower. He did not finish his words, but Xie Sen already knew what he was going to say.
He jumped up. "Why didn't you tell me before?"
"I was afraid that you would be scared. I thought that if I kept encouraging you to collect energy, nothing would happen. But now you are muddling along and not even actively collecting energy. It made me feel that if I kept it from you, something bad might happen."
Xie Sen stood for a while before sitting down again. Indeed, the moment he retracted the crimson energy, he heaved a huge sigh of relief. Sleeping every twelve hours was too easy. As long as he was careful, it would not affect his life.
So he was not so enthusiastic about recovering the rest of the energy.
He slumped on the sofa. "What now? You can't feel the energy. Do you want to go to other planets and try?"
"No," A Dan said. "There are too many planets here. It is too late to try one by one. We just need to increase the energy."
It raised its voice and its tone was full of encouragement, like a senior high school teacher encouraging a student. "A Sen, do your best to collect energy and activate the fourth type of plant. Then I will be able to feel the alien energy."
"You are the best. You can do it. The speed at which you collect energy is much faster than before. Your ability is beyond my imagination. You …"
"Okay," Xie Sen interrupted its flattery. "I will work hard. Don't worry, I will not slack off. Rest well."
"A Sen is the best. I like A Sen the most." A Dan praised again before falling asleep to accumulate energy.
Xie Sen opened the system panel. The fourth blank page of the green hardcover book showed 132/400. This meant that activating the fourth type of plant required 268 energy. With his current speed of collecting energy, he would be able to activate it in half a month.
He was instantly relieved. After activating the plant, A Dan would be able to sense the energy. In more than a year, he would definitely be able to find and recover the next type of energy.
"Chirp!" As soon as he turned off the system, the cheerful cry of the Tuan Tuan came from behind him. He turned around with a smile.
The next moment, his smile froze. The Tuan Tuan was hovering very close to him. It flapped its wings and blinked its round eyes happily. It was very cute.
But! It was holding a slender striped snake in its claws. The snake was still writhing. The moment he turned around, he almost touched it.
"Ah ah ah …" Xie Sen suddenly felt his scalp explode. He jumped up from the sofa and screamed uncontrollably at the same time. He ran away from the sofa.
He was most afraid of mollusks, especially this snake that looked very poisonous. He had goosebumps all over his body.
"Chirp chirp chirp ~" The Tuan Tuan did not understand his reaction and flew towards him worriedly.
"Ah ah ah …" Xie Sen's voice was trembling. He saw MeiIn striding out of the bedroom from the corner of his eye. Without thinking, he ran towards MeiIn, grabbed MeiIn's clothes and hid behind MeiIn.
"Quick, get it away."
"Chirp ~" The Tuan Tuan tilted its head.
MeiIn grabbed Xie Sen's wrist and looked at the Tuan Tuan coldly. "Throw it out. If you dare to bring this kind of thing back in the future, you don't have to come back."
The Tuan Tuan blinked and realized why Xie Sen had reacted. It shook its claws in confusion. What was there to be afraid of?
A Sen was really timid.
It had wanted to let A Sen taste something delicious. It flapped its wings disappointedly and flew out of the apartment with the snake.
"Okay." MeiIn squeezed Xie Sen's hand. "Are you that scared?"
Xie Sen relaxed when he could not see the Tuan Tuan and the snake. He looked at MeiIn's calm appearance and thought of his reaction just now. He could not help but blush. How embarrassing.
"No, no." Xie Sen let go of his clothes and laughed dryly. "I just turned my head and was scared when I saw you."
MeiIn's eyes flashed with a hint of a smile. Xie Sen stiffly changed the topic and glanced at his bedroom. "What were you doing just now?"
MeiIn directly turned on the bracelet and showed him the virtual screen. Xie Sen looked and read, "Sanmu Software Information Company, legal person: MeiIn …"
When he read this, he suddenly realized that San Mu was Sen.
His heart could not help but beat wildly, and his face was getting hotter and hotter. This, this, this, there should be no other explanation, right?
MeiIn said, "I prepared the information a few days ago. When I returned to the apartment, it passed the review. I just went to do the identity verification and the company was successfully established."
"Congratulations." Xie Sen hesitated to ask about the company name.
MeiIn looked at him and suddenly reached out to hold his waist. His fingers gently twisted his right ear. "Why is it so red?"
Xie Sen's body trembled slightly. He suddenly covered his redder ear and stepped back in shock. However, MeiIn held him tightly and could not move at all.
Xie Sen's other hand grabbed MeiIn's arm and sighed. How could the sensitive part of this body be the earlobe! Moreover, it was a bit too sensitive. He just touched it and his legs went soft.
"Let go of me." His tone was weak.
MeiIn stared at him. His eyes were helpless and flustered. His white skin was dyed red, which made people want to bully him.
MeiIn's eyes gradually darkened. He slowly lowered his head and his hands uncontrollably pulled Xie Sen closer to him. Their bodies were close together, and it was particularly ambiguous.
Xie Sen felt the change in his body. The scene of them returning to Gold Card Road immediately appeared in his mind. He instantly panicked. "I, I, I, I'll go make dinner."
"There's no hurry." MeiIn's voice was hoarse. "It's still early."
He unconsciously rubbed against Xie Sen and frowned. His beautiful face showed an uncomfortable and happy expression. "A Sen, it's uncomfortable. Touch me."
Xie Sen's legs went soft in an instant. Seeing that he did not move, MeiIn's frown deepened. He was almost close to Xie Sen's mouth and whispered, "You said you wouldn't lie to me."
Xie Sen immediately felt his lips go numb and itchy. He subconsciously licked them and touched MeiIn's lips at the same time.
MeiIn's eyes suddenly darkened. He used his lips to touch Xie Sen's and his hands pulled Xie Sen closer to him. There was no space between the two of them.
Soon, MeiIn was not satisfied. It was just a simple touch. He randomly nibbled Xie Sen's lips as if they were a delicious pastry.
"Ouch …" Xie Sen's lips hurt from being bitten. He frowned and took a deep breath. He raised his hand and hit MeiIn's arm.
MeiIn slightly loosened his grip. Xie Sen panted and leaned weakly against MeiIn.
Xie Sen was particularly ashamed of his reaction. After thinking about it, he felt that there was only one explanation: it was because he did not have enough energy, so his body was too weak!
MeiIn's forehead was pressed against Xie Sen's. Their breaths were particularly hot, as if they wanted to burn each other.
Xie Sen looked up and bumped into a pair of bottomless burning eyes. His heart suddenly trembled and he only felt his heart burning.
MeiIn rubbed against him anxiously and uncomfortably: "A Sen, touch me. I feel so uncomfortable."
His delicate face was tainted with passion. He was so beautiful that he did not seem like a real person. Xie Sen uncontrollably reached out to touch the side of his face as if he was bewitched. His heart moved, and he tiptoed and gently bit the left side of his face.
A circle of shallow teeth marks immediately appeared on his beautiful skin. Xie Sen thought that it was really easy to bite. Then, he licked it to comfort him.
MeiIn's hand around his waist uncontrollably tightened. Xie Sen cried out in pain. He patted MeiIn's hand: "Be gentle. It's going to break."
MeiIn loosened his grip and looked at him fiercely, as if he wanted to swallow him into his stomach: "If you touch me, I can't control myself."
Xie Sen muttered: "You haven't really touched me yet!"
MeiIn moved his waist and said in his ear: "You also have a reaction. Do you want me to touch you?"
Xie Sen gritted his teeth and decided not to wrong himself. After all, it was a happy thing between both of them. After thinking it through, he was not shy anymore. He put his arm around MeiIn's neck: "Let's go to my room."
