Chapter 426: Like a Child Seeking Praise
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There were only the two of them in the room. Du Yue did not even need to open her eyes to know that it was He Xing. The next second, she felt a warm kiss on her forehead. “What are you thinking about with your eyes closed?”
Du Yue opened her eyes and looked at He Xing’s smiling eyes. “Tell me, if we give birth to a child at this time, how should we raise them?”
At present, there was only thick fog. In another year or so, eternal night would come. After four years of eternal night, there would be deadly acid rain.
No matter how she thought about it, Du Yue did not think that it was a good time to have a child. Of course, this was only her own opinion. The others did not know what kind of natural disasters would happen in the future. Humanity had to continue. Giving birth was not just something that they could decide on their own; the Heavens played a role too.
She could not care less about other people, but if it were her, she would not choose to have a child at this time. It was unfair to the child. Du Yue was deep in thought, forgetting that there was someone beside her. It was not until she pulled herself out of her thoughts that she noticed that He Xing had not answered her. She looked at He Xing and saw that he was also hesitant. Du Yue said softly, “What are you thinking about?”
“I was thinking, if we have a child, would they have black hair or silver hair?”
Du Yue was speechless. The two of them had not even thought of getting pregnant and he was already fantasizing about the hair color of their future child? Du Yue had no intention of having children at all, so she did not want to discuss such a meaningless topic with He Xing. “Stop, don’t be so imaginative.”
He Xing reached out and hugged Du Yue in his arms. He chuckled and said, “What should I do? I just want to!”
Life went on in an orderly manner. In the blink of an eye, it was the third day of Xia Ju’s research on the nutrient solution. This morning, Du Yue and He Xing had just washed up and gone downstairs when they saw Xia Ju waiting for them at the stairs. Her waist-length hair was casually draped over her back, and some of it was scattered on her shoulders. Her clean face looked like it was sculpted, just like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world. Du Yue was immersed in Xia Ju’s beauty. Xia Ju gave Du Yue a bright smile and even raised the test tube in her hand and waved it at Du Yue.
“Du Yue! Guess what’s in here! Quickly guess!” Her tone and demeanor were like a child asking for praise from her mother. Du Yue looked at Xia Ju with some emotion. With her, there was no need to have a child at all!
At this moment, He Xing, who was standing beside Du Yue, said, “You guys have fun. I’ll go cook first.”
Du Yue nodded and took out the ingredients for breakfast from the s.p.a.ce and handed them to He Xing. “Thank you for your hard work, Chef He!”
Although she said that, she quickened her pace and almost jogged to Xia Ju’s side. Xia Ju held a test tube in her hand. The liquid inside was light pink and looked like peach water. Du Yue was still staring at it, but Xia Ju could not wait to introduce it to her. “This is a high-grade nutrient solution that I spent 48 hours making. I guarantee that your food will grow healthily after taking it!”
Hearing Xia Ju’s words, Du Yue could not help but laugh. She only used two days to make the nutrient solution, and she made it seem like she had gone through many things. If one did not know, one would think that she had been studying it for 48 days. Du Yue smiled and looked at Xia Ju. “Is the effect really as amazing as you said?”
“What do you mean? Do you not believe me?” Xia Ju glared at Du Yue and questioned, “If you don’t believe me, why don’t you try it? Anyway, you already have plants here!”
“I believe you, I believe you!”
Du Yue patted Xia Ju’s shoulder and comforted her, saying, “Of course, I believe you. I just want to see how awesome its effect is. Then let’s experiment with the plants in the living room first.”
The living room was filled with corn. These seeds had been planted for two days, and only a few small sprouts had sprouted. The tender shoots were green and jubilant.
No matter when it was, the sprouting of plants would always bring new hope and a good mood. Especially in this foggy world, the few green sprouts were even more pleasing.
Du Yue asked Xia Ju to experiment with the corn in the living room because she trusted her ability. Even if the nutrient solution that Xia Ju accidentally concocted could not make the corn grow by leaps and bounds, at least it would not have any adverse effects, right? Xia Ju opened the test tube. “Help me get half a bucket of water, then add the nutrient solution to dilute it. Just pour it into the logistics boxes. You don’t need to use it often. Once a week will do..”
