Volume 4: Spacetime Singularity Chapter 36: Superficial

“So you didn’t ask the doctor if he published the paper last?”

Seeing that the porridge would take some time to cook, the two of them moved to the sofa together. Fang Cheng's house was located in the east, and the large living room had a great view. Sitting on the sofa, one could directly see the sea through a row of large windows.

Ning Yu'an's house is on the west side. Outside the living room window there is only a main road and a wild forest on the other side of the road. It becomes eerie at night.

The difference in scenery made her run to Fang Cheng's house whenever she had time. Even if she had nothing to do, she could just sit there and daydream. It was much more comfortable than staying at home.

"I don't want to go to the dentist anymore. I'm scared when I smell the hospital now."

When Ning Yu'an said this, his hand unconsciously covered his mouth.

It is said that when the doctor was extracting her teeth, he used various electric instruments, just like a metalworking internship. It would be strange if this did not leave a psychological trauma.

Ning Yu'an leaned back on the small sofa next to the coffee table, raised one leg and dangled it back and forth.

Although she usually gives Fang Cheng an overall feeling of being "fluffy" or soft, a closer look at the curve of her calves reveals that it is very comfortable to look at, with thick places being thick and thin places being thin.

This sight was a bit too obvious, and it was impossible not to be noticed when there were only two of them.

"It's called the 'male gaze' you know? It's very rude."

Upon hearing this, Fang Cheng secretly glanced at the other person's face. From his expression, it seemed that he was not very angry, so he should not need to apologize immediately.

"Where did you learn this new word..."

He had actually heard this word before, but in this case he had to pretend not to know it.

"No, you can stare at it eight hundred times a day, won't you get tired of it? Is it really that beautiful?"

"Well, that's not the reason, because your beauty is so shocking..."

"Oh, that's really greasy, it makes me feel sick."

However, as Ning Yu'an spoke, the corners of her mouth slightly raised at an almost unnoticeable angle, and Fang Cheng could clearly feel that she was no longer as angry as before.

It seems that this crisis has been safely overcome for the time being.

He wasn't really afraid of Ning Yu'an getting angry. After years of getting along, he had become very experienced in dealing with these things. Although experience was just experience, he didn't sum up a theory on how to deal with anger.

A girl’s anger is a completely inexplicable black box. Even if there is a theory, it is only phenomenological.

In fact, he knew in what circumstances his childhood sweetheart would get angry, and how long she would stay angry each time. If her anger index was a five-level scale, then the situation just now was only level two. However, the most urgent task now was to quickly change the topic, or to be clever so that the atmosphere would not become like a criminal interrogation.

The current situation suddenly made him feel a little sad. After experiencing all kinds of mental shocks before, Fang Cheng realized that the daily conversations and "intrigues" that he was accustomed to before were so precious. This sense of familiarity also allowed him to temporarily regain a sense of security that he had long lost.

"Actually... you can't blame me for this..."

Fang Cheng changed to a more comfortable posture, from sitting upright to sitting cross-legged.

Ning Yu'an turned her head to look at him, and began to chew her fingers unconsciously. Fang Cheng saw her chewing and remembered that there were usually some dried fruits in the drawer of the small cabinet beside the table. He wondered if there were any left now.

He sat up slightly, bent down and opened the cabinet. There was indeed half a pack of milk-flavored melon seeds lying inside. Fang Cheng took it out and looked through it. It was still within the expiration date.

"Stop chewing your hand and chew this instead."

Ning Yu'an naturally held his hands in front of him and bent down to take the melon seeds. At this time, his collar naturally dropped down, revealing the scene inside.

"Based on my personal experience, a person's XP is strongly correlated with their childhood experiences. Taking me as an example, this factor should have played a decisive role in my growth trajectory."

"What do you mean, you were already this perverted when you were a kid? Not really, right?"

As she spoke, she put her hands in front of her body and unconsciously stepped back.

"No, no, that's not what I meant. But think about it, we spent so much time together, so did you constantly correct my preferences as I grew up, and did your brain also get trained to develop this kind of feedback structure..."

"According to your theory, I'm not the only one training. Weren't you and that guy in a relationship before? What was his name..."

"Who? Is this true? How come I don't know about it?"

I actually had a relationship in middle school? How come I didn't know about it?

"Actually, I forgot too, but now it seems that she is not an important person. We can't even remember her name."

"I don't even know who you're referring to. I don't remember having any particularly close female friends... I was quite aloof in middle school."

At that time, Fang Cheng was really not very good at talking to girls, both in junior high and high school. It wasn't that he didn't want communicate with others, but he was not very proficient in this skill and had no way to solve it.

"You were such a good student in high school, but you didn't want to talk to people around you. People who didn't know you didn't think you were socially anxious, they just thought you were aloof."

As she spoke, the handful of melon seeds in her hand had all turned into shells. Seeing the whole situation, Fang Cheng simply handed the bag in his hand to her.

"Don't mention that. Anyway... my current hobbies are definitely related to you. As for how big the relationship is, I'm not sure..."

"So, what exactly do you like? Just breasts? Isn't it enough to look at them every day? You seem to like feet, right? Fang Xue told me about this several times before."

"...Do you really have to know so much? And when did that little girl tell you? This is purely a rumor..."

"Hey, weren't you the one who started this topic?"

"... "

"Anyway, I thought you wouldn't be so superficial, but now it seems all crows are the same."

"This is the law of nature... It can't be called superficial... After all, people are regulated by hormones..."

"Come on, it's just pure lust, and hormones..."

"Whatever you say, but what do you like about boys..."

Although this turn is a bit abrupt, the situation will become awkward if it continues.

"Abdominal muscles."

"Well, I think I still have some..."

"Can you call that abdominal muscles? There are just two of them with a line in the middle."

"Look carefully, there are six pieces..."
