Chapter 21 Chapter 21 Can I touch you?

Lu Xun had a dream. In the dream, a young man in a white shirt was leading him, who was younger than him, in rock climbing. He was out of breath and lagged behind the other by about ten steps. The other person looked down at him from a high place, with sweat on his face and a smile on his face: "Xiao Xun, you are going to lose to your brother."

Xiao Lu Xun was panting, gritted his teeth, and gave the young man a very arrogant smile: "I won't lose!"

Dreams seemed to have added a shortcut key. In a blink of an eye they had reached the top of the mountain.

In the distance, the mountains are undulating and vast. They were sitting on the edge of the mountain, and Lu Xun heard the young man ask him, "Xiao Xun, what kind of life do you want to live?"

Lu Xun saw himself stunned for a moment, then an excited smile appeared on his face, "I want to live an amazing life! Better than you and Dad!" "

Really?" Lu Xun saw the young man touch his head lightly, then stood up and looked at the distant sky, "Xiao Xun."

The young man's voice suddenly became very light: "Brother seems a little tired."

Lu Xun saw himself in the dream with a confused look on his face, staring blankly at the young man beside him.

His heart suddenly tightened: "No!"

Lu Xun yelled. The next second, the young man jumped from the top of the mountain.

Lu Xun opened his eyes suddenly. The curtains were not drawn, and the fiery red light from outside the window almost burned his eyeballs.

He climbed to his feet and his elbow touched the mouse on the desk. The computer screen lights up: 2026.4.26 6:00

He slept for almost 22 hours.

“…Good morning.” Lu Xun touched the blue-haired doll sitting next to the computer.

The doll's mouth corners are curved, and its eyes are like Lugu Lake under the sun, so blue that it is mesmerizing.

There was just no response.

Lu Xun tightened his fingers slightly as they were weaving through her hair. He held the doll on his lap and adjusted the height of the chair so that the doll's chin could just rest on the edge of the table.

Lu Xun held the doll in one hand and opened his cell phone and exercise book 4 with the other.

"...Lu Xun!"

There was a knock on the door.

Lu Xun seemed not to hear it and continued to copy homework while holding the baby in his arms.

"Lu Xun! Open the door!" The knocking on the door became more and more intense.

Lu Xun stopped writing, put the doll back on the table, and stood up to open the door.

There were kids with colorful hair gathered outside the door.

When the kids saw Lu Xun, they were all stunned. Lu Xun's shirt was wrinkled, his hair was messy as if he had just returned from the battlefield, and his eyes were bloodshot. Although he was still very handsome, he looked like one of those crazy and antisocial teenagers in the movies, which was creepy.

"What's wrong?" Lu Xun spoke in a hoarse voice, holding the pen in his right hand which he had not put back in time.

Politics: "...We thought you fainted."

Lu Xun: "No."

After saying that, he turned around and went back to his room.

"Wait, wait!" Zhengxun called him, "Do you know where Yuwen went?"

Lu Xun paused and turned back. Due to the light, there was no highlight in his dark pupils.

I was a little scared of the topic of politics. Before I could figure out what to say next, the geography subject that was hiding in the back suddenly popped its head out.

The child leaned in Yingyu's arms, his eyes still wet, and it looked like he had just cried: "Brother Lu...did something happen to big brother?"

Lu Xun paused.

“…No way.” English felt something was wrong and turned to ask History next to him, “Didn’t you tell me that he stayed at school to make up for his lessons recently?!”

History was also dumbfounded: “Politics told me that!”

Politics was speechless and was about to say that it was Lu Xun who said that, but after seeing Lu Xun’s expression, he took the blame on himself.

Geography pursed his lips slightly and was about to cry: "Is big brother the same as Chemistry Auntie..."

"No."

Lu Xun squatted down and touched his head: "He's fine."

Geography stared at the red bloodshot in Lu Xun's eyes, his lips trembling: "Really?"

Lu Xun: "Did I lie to you?"

After coaxing Geography and a group of half-believing and half-doubting children away, Lu Xun turned around and was about to go back to do his homework.

"Forget it, let's not waste time." The creature stood not far away, with his hands idly in his pockets.

Lu Xun had a blank expression, his handsome face seemed stretched into a real sculpture: "I asked the hospital, his vital signs have not disappeared."

After returning to the room, Lu Xun copied for another two hours. Later, the hand holding the pen began to tremble uncontrollably.

He pinched his wrist, stood up and went to the kitchen to wrap some ice in a towel and apply it to his wrist.

When he walked back to the room, his steps suddenly stopped.

At the end of the corridor, the door of a room that had not been opened for a long time opened. A large patch of sunlight poured out from inside, extending all the way to Lu Xun's feet.

Lu Xun squeezed the ice pack tightly and strode to the door of the room.

A man in a grey shirt stands with his back to him, holding a picture frame.

Lu Xun's eyes suddenly darkened: "Who let you in?"

The man turned his head. He had a very handsome face, with a sharp jawline, some fine lines at the corners of his eyes, sharp eyebrows, and a natural sense of oppression when he looked at people.

"Is this how you talk to your dad?"

Lu Xun raised the corners of his lips slightly, revealing his sarcasm.

Lu Zeyu put the photo frame back on the table. It was an old, slightly yellowed photo. The young man in the photo looked about 70% similar to Lu Xun, but his features were softer than Lu Xun's, and his temperament was more mature. He was wearing a white cotton and linen shirt and was hugging a girl's waist. The girl was wearing a goose yellow dress, snuggling in the young man's arms, smiling happily.

Lu Xun stared at the photo frame for a long time.

"You didn't go to the monthly exam again this time." Lu Zeyu lowered his eyes and looked at Lu Xun's hand with an ice pack, "What's wrong

with your hand?" "It's none of your business."

"I've already told your teacher." Lu Zeyu said indifferently, "If you can't make it into the top ten in the grade at the end of the semester, then..."

"So what." Lu Xun leaned against the wall and said casually, "Will you force me to death?"

Lu Zeyu paused, his voice suddenly sank: "What did you say?"

"I said." Lu Xun looked at Lu Zeyu's gradually darkening eyes, as if afraid that he couldn't hear clearly, and said slowly, word by word, "Just like you forced my brother and mother to death, will you also..."

Before he finished speaking, his collar was suddenly pulled.

Lu Zeyu was tall, with shoulders twice as broad as Lu Xun's and a few centimeters taller than him. When he lowered his eyes to look at him, the warning in his eyes was like two knives stabbing into Lu Xun.

Lu Xun didn't take it as an offense. He looked at Lu Zeyu's ferocious face with the corner of his mouth raised provocatively.

The veins on the hand that was clutching the collar were exposed.

Just as the trigger was about to be fired, Lu Xun's face was suddenly hit by something soft.

The pillow fell down his face to his feet. Lu Xun was stunned for a moment and looked out the door.

Lu Zeyu followed his gaze and saw nothing but a closed door. That turned out to be Lu Xun's mother's room.

He looked back at Lu Xun. The provocation on Lu Xun's face had disappeared. His black pupils were trembling slightly, and his face was full of confusion and surprise.

The strength in his hands gradually loosened, and Lu Zeyu's expression became complicated, with some doubts in his expression. He let go of Lu Xun and walked straight out.

Lu Xun stared at the door in a daze.

A black-haired boy was standing by the door. He had a very delicate face, which seemed to be only as big as an adult's palm. His eyes were like a pair of translucent black agates. He had a clear and light temperament, and naturally had a sense of distance that seemed to be there and not there, but made people unable to look away.

Lu Xun watched Lu Zeyu walk towards where the young man was standing. Just as he was about to bump into him, he subconsciously reached out his hand.

The next second, Lu Zeyu walked straight past the boy and out.

Lu Xun opened his eyes wide, and belatedly noticed that the boy's body seemed somewhat transparent.

"He can't see me." said the boy.

Lu Zeyu has already walked out of the corridor.

Lu Xun paused: "...Gu Chen?"

Even though he had seen him in the ward, when the person actually stood in front of him, Lu Xun was a little unsure.

Gu Chen nodded. He glanced at the pillow on the ground and felt a little embarrassed: "Sorry, I just wanted to throw your father..."

Then he felt that this was a bit inappropriate, scratched his head and said, "I was afraid he would act impulsively."

Lu Xun's eyes flashed, he walked in front of Gu Chen, looked him up and down, as if he suspected that he was dreaming.

"...Can I touch you?"

His voice was a little hoarse, his hair was messy and draped between his eyebrows, and the dark circles under his eyes were almost as dark as a panda's.

Gu Chen showed reluctance, took two steps forward, and extended his hand to Lu Xun.

His fingers were long and slender, white and translucent like crystal. Lu Xun gently pinched his fingers.

It didn't feel real, as if I had reached into a warm solution.

Lu Xunkong grabbed it twice, and the warm feeling wrapped around his cold palms and backs of his hands, making them warm.

"This is my soul." Gu Chen took the initiative to explain, "My biology teacher helped me find it."

Lu Xun paused and continued to probe into Gu Chen's soul. From his hands to his arms, the warm feeling became addictive to him.

Although he has no nervous system, Lu Xun's actions gave Gu Chen a strange tingling sensation. He resisted the urge to hide and let Lu Xun's hands rummage through his soul.

"Cough!"

A loud cough blocked Lu Xun's hand which was about to reach Gu Chen's Adam's apple.

The creature slowly walked out from behind Gu Chen and looked at Lu Xun deeply.

Lu Xun didn't feel the slightest bit embarrassed about being seen through, and he put his hand down naturally.

Thinking back to what happened outside just now, the other party calmly asked him to give up. Lu Xun had a blank expression on his face: "Shouldn't you give me an explanation?"

"What to explain?" The creature looked at Lu Xun's face that seemed to have been washed with ice water, and said lightly, "It's just a little more professional."

Lu Xun remembered what he said a few days ago.

Seriously speaking, questioning a scientist's professionalism is indeed very rude.

Lu Xun lowered his eyes to look at the creature, and the creature also looked up at him. It was as if there was a balloon between the two of them that would burst if poked.

Gu Chen looked around, inserted himself in between them, and said to Lu Xun: "After the accident in the hospital that day, I have been unconscious. I just woke up and am in this state now..."

The creature turned and walked out.

"Teacher." Gu Chen called him, his face full of gratitude, "Thank you for saving me this time."

Although he himself didn't know the specific situation, he just woke up on the biology laboratory table. There were four computers and mountains of information beside him. It was obvious that the biology department must have done a lot of research for him.

The creature looked at him and said nothing.

Gu Chen didn't feel embarrassed and said with a smile: "I'll make some snacks for Geography later. Do you want to eat anything?"

The cotton doll can maintain its body functions without eating. In order to improve work efficiency, Biology has only eaten three things twice in two years after being transformed into a doll.

The creature glanced at Lu Xun and asked Gu Chen, "What do you usually do for your girlfriend?"

Gu Chen was stunned, "I don't have a girlfriend..."

"Hurry up and find one."

"?"

"I want the flower cake from last time." The creature said, "I want it in the shape of a heart."

Gu Chen was stunned by his jumping thoughts, but then he thought it was normal for a genius to have a bit of jumping thoughts.

He was about to say yes when he suddenly felt something heavy on his hand.

Lu Xun was completely unaware that he had accidentally used force on someone's soul. He let go of Gu Chen and walked over to the creature and squatted down.

The creature calmly waited for him to make a move.

"I'm sorry." Lu Xun said, "I shouldn't have questioned your professionalism that day."

The creature was stunned for a moment when he didn't expect that the usually arrogant little brat would apologize so straightforwardly.

"Forget it. Give me an extra 10,000 yuan for my experimental funding this month."

"Okay." Lu Xun said without hesitation, "But you can't ask for a heart-shaped flower cake."

Biology: ".

" Gu Chen: "???"
