It was true. In life, everyone was worrying about making money, family chores, and work. Only he was pursuing his dream seriously and persistently, so he could live like a blank sheet of paper.
Jiang Yuning blushed. "Are you insulting me or complimenting me?"
"Of course I'm complimenting you, but …" Nian Xi's expression suddenly turned complicated. "Have you ever thought about the fact that we have two different professions? If we try to get to know each other in the future, will we not be able to fit into each other's circle?"
Hearing that, Jiang Yuning tensed up, as if he was facing a formidable enemy. Wasn't it just talking about black holes? Why did she have such an idea? "My circle is simple. It's just a lab. Your circle … I don't know much about catching criminals, but … I can … give you something that I made."
"That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about our shared interests." Nian Xi was upset too. At first, she didn't think about that. However, on the way back, she heard him talking about knowledge. She didn't understand him at all.
"You … don't like what I said, do you?" Jiang Yuning suddenly realized that something was wrong. "I won't say it again, then."
"That's not the case. I think you can make it easier to understand," Nian Xi suggested. "I'm willing to learn new things, but have your parents ever thought about letting you find someone who's in the same occupation as you? You two have common topics and dreams."
Jiang Yuning scratched the back of his head and said, "My parents didn't tell me. We only see each other during the New Year. They're usually too busy. Sometimes, they don't even have time for the New Year."
The corners of Nian Xi's mouth twitched. He was already thirty this year, but his parents didn't even mention it. As for her own parents, they would talk about it every time they met. No matter how naggy they were, it was still a blessing to be able to spend time with her family.
"Aren't your parents worried that you'll be single forever? Aren't they worried that the excellent genes of the Jiang family won't be able to continue?"
Jiang Yuning shook his head and said, "My father only cares about ancient creatures. Every time he hears about fossils and rare creatures, he will take his team there. He often stays in all kinds of mountains or laboratories for months. My mother also goes around the world all year round to stargazing, comparing, and taking photos. She often stays at an altitude of more than three thousand meters. When I was young, I lived with her in Kailash for half a year."
Nian Xi clicked her tongue. What a crazy family!
"Um … You seem to like astronomy as well. Are you going to spend half a year at sea level with me after you get married?" Nian Xi asked hesitantly.
"Get married?" Jiang Yuning paused. Then, he realized what she meant and blushed. "I do."
"…"
Nian Xi's face darkened. "I'm just making an example, okay? I didn't propose."
Jiang Yuning pursed his lips in disappointment and said, "I'll go if you want me to. If you don't, I won't go."
"Don't say that. After all, you want to go to space," Nian Xi said sarcastically.
"The universe isn't as important as getting married and having children." Jiang Yuning looked at her and blinked his big black eyes, as if he was looking at a piece of meat on the chopping board.
Nian Xi coughed and said, "It's getting late. You should head back. I'm sleepy too."
Nian Xi thought for a moment, then said, "Stay at home and rest. I'll come to see you tomorrow if I'm free. I'll be busy interrogating Yang Zhiwen these days. That kid doesn't plan to plead guilty. I have to send him to prison." Jiang Yuning got out of the car.
