After the exchange meeting at the convention and exhibition center, they did not return to the B3024 star immediately. Ruan Shiqing agreed to Dais' invitation to visit Professor Clay's laboratory, so they went through the hotel extension procedure and continued to stay in Sikkim. On the contrary, Mr. Hawthorne, who lived at the opposite door, came to say goodbye and said that he was leaving.
Garland didn't intend to leave so soon. But Si Yan had already persuaded Old Bart that surgery might be arranged in the near future, so he had to leave.
Ruan Shiqing is a very vigilant person, he spent a lot of time approaching him, but still did not gain his trust, occasionally mentioning a few cubs around him, the other party would move without a trace topic. He was worried that the question would be too obvious, which would cause the other party's vigilance and disgust, and he didn't even have a chance to learn more about the young dragon.
But fortunately, during this period of time, he could see that the other party was very good to several cubs, and the cub also liked him very much. Although it was still unclear where the other party picked up the young dragon, he was not so worried when he was about to leave.
Maybe when he finishes dealing with the matter here, he can be frank and talk to the other side openly.
"I hope to see you again in the future." Garland smiled warmly and handed Ruan Shiqing the small gift prepared in advance. When he bowed his head, he saw the young dragon holding his father's leg and looking up at him.
After hesitating for a while, he took out another golden and translucent gem from his pocket, crouched down and handed it to the little dragon cub: "This is for you."
The gemstone is as big as a pigeon egg, and the color is pure. He accidentally saw it when he passed the jewelry store. At first glance, he thought it was very similar to the eyes of this young dragon.
Dragon's nature loves gorgeous and bright gems, so he bought it. I just didn't take it out because I was worried that it would be too abrupt. Seeing the young dragon looking up at him now, he couldn't help it.
"Wow! It's so big!" The cub opened his eyes wide and exclaimed when he saw the gem.
His eyes were as round as gems. Although he was full of love, he put his little paws behind him, shook his head and said, "This must be expensive, you can't ask for it."
A very well-behaved young dragon.
The love in Garan's eyes deepened, he put the gem in the little claws of the young dragon, and before he refused, he straightened up and said to Ruan Shiqing: "This gem is for me It's nothing, it's just a small gift." He looked down at the cub with a hint of sadness in his eyes: "If my cub can grow up smoothly, it may be as cute as him."
He didn't look fake.
Although this gem is expensive for ordinary people, it is really nothing to those who can live in the penthouse suite of the Elize Hotel.
Ruan Shiqing thought for a while, and felt that he might have thought of his own cub, so he gave such a gift, so he did not refuse any more.
He bent over and patted the little head of the little dragon cub, and said softly, "Harry, say thank you to Uncle Hawthorne."
The little dragon cub held the gem, raised his head and thanked him obediently.
Garland was stunned: "His name is Harry?"
So many times, he never asked for the name of the cub.
Ruan Shiqing responded, feeling that his expression was a little strange. It was just too late to say more, and the other party's intellectual brain rang.
Garland frowned, not wanting to connect, but wanted to continue to inquire about the origin of the name "Harry", but Si Yan's communication kept flickering.
—Si Yan must be in a hurry to find him.
Garland frowned, he could only suppress his doubts, bid farewell politely, and return to the hotel room.
The communication is connected, and his tone is not very good: "What is the matter that makes Your Majesty so anxious?"
Si Yan's graceful face showed a clear smile: "Go to the laboratory immediately to prepare, Old Bart's experiment is ahead of schedule, it will be tomorrow morning."
When Garland rushed to the laboratory, he finally understood why Old Bart was so eager to experiment in advance.
—His organs have begun to fail.
Old Bart is an evolutionary man. As the helm of the Naxi Group, he is quite old. Although they have been focusing on maintenance over the years, no matter how rich they are, they cannot resist the invasion of aging and disease.
No wonder surgery is so urgent.
Garland made the preoperative preparations unhurriedly, and the comatose old Bart had been secretly sent to the laboratory for preoperative examination.
Garland occasionally looked up at him and couldn't help but pouted, feeling that it was too wasteful for His Majesty the Emperor to not go to the entertainment industry.
After finally appeasing Queen Seya and coaxing her to return to the palace. Only then did Si Yan put away that tender and penetrating look.
Garland analyzed Old Bart's condition: "He only has a few days left to live. If Your Majesty is determined to win the Naxi Group, why should he go far? Queen Seya is pregnant with your child, he Not only the heir to the royal family, but also the heir to the Naxi group."
He really couldn't understand why Si Yan insisted on mechanizing Old Bart.
Mechanized transformation is a complete scam, it is true that it can temporarily prolong life, but the person who carries out the transformation is no longer the original "person", but a continuation of the behavior before his death It's just a mechanical puppet of the model. Although they are alive, they have lost their sense of autonomy as independent individuals. All the actions and choices they make are just the best choices made by highly intelligent AI based on their life data.
In his opinion, as long as old Bart dies, Si Yan is fully capable of taking over the Naxi Group. Several big chaebols are horns of each other. As long as he controls the Naxi Group, the royal family will no longer have to be restricted by the other three chaebols. It is really unnecessary for him to use Old Bart as bait to set up traps for the other three in power.
He didn't think Si Yan could swallow the four big chaebols alone, which would only cause endless chaos.
"You don't have to know so much." After Si Yan restrained the false tenderness and smile, the whole person became extremely cold, like a cold sword. As if ready to harvest life anytime, anywhere.
"I heard you and Commodore Hector once had a cub?"
He suddenly mentioned this, which made Garan's eyebrows jump, and somehow he thought of the young dragon named Heri,
The black dragon cub, also known as Heri, who lives outside, is it such a coincidence?
He is a red dragon, and Hector is a black dragon. They have argued countless times over who the dragon cub in the dragon egg will look like, and even fought. But in the end the dragon egg was gone, and he never got a chance to witness him break out of the shell to see if he was like himself or Hector.
Garland closed his eyes and calmed himself down, his voice cold: "It's been too long, I can't remember."
Si Yan smiled indifferently, and threw the bait: "Successfully completed the operation, in return, I will tell you everything you want to know, including the missing cub."
After saying goodbye to Hawthorne, Ruan Shiqing received two invitations one after another. Since the exchange meeting, there have been many more invitations and letters sent to the front desk of the hotel and named to him.
But he wasn't ready to go.
Sikkim is very prosperous, but he is not going to stay long. In addition, the identity of the cubs is always a hidden danger. Apart from the invitations from friends, he does not plan to expose too many people, which will greatly increase the exposure of the cubs and increase the possibility of their identities being exposed.
And... Ruan Shiqing put all the invitations on the coffee table, glanced at the giant beast on the bay window, and remembered what the other party said when he took him away from the hotel that day.
If he accepts the invitation, the other party will probably be very angry to rob people again.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glanced at the behemoth lazily basking in the sun.
The adult Yomir is really majestic. The fur is smooth and supple, and it glows like satin in the sun. Several cubs regarded him as a blanket, or slept on his back, or leaned against him to read, very comfortable.
—Since the day they learned the true identity of the other party, the cubs are very keen to let him return to the adult form of Yomir when the door is closed.
Although Rong Heng was disgusted, he never disappointed the cubs every time.
Instead, it was Ruan Shiqing, who was concerned about the identity of the other party's human form and never tried it once.
He inadvertently reached out and rubbed his left earlobe, picked up the book and walked towards the majestic beast.
Rong Heng felt that Ruan Shiqing looked at him a little strangely recently.
Since he returned to the hotel from the convention center that night, he always looked at him with a weird look. Sometimes Rong Heng accompanies the cubs to play in the living room, and when he suddenly turns his head, he can meet Ruan Shiqing's faint gaze.
He always felt that the way the other party looked at him was the same as looking at the research topic of interest in the laboratory.
It makes the scalp tingling.
He wondered if some of his actions crossed the line and let the other party see the clue. After all, Ruan Shiqing is a very sensitive and intelligent person, and many things are not easy to hide from his eyes.
His Royal Highness the Prince was in a mood, especially when he saw the stacks of invitations being delivered, his heart was burning.
But he didn't dare to show it, he could only force himself to lie down in the warm sunshine and pretend he didn't feel anything.
The cub lay on his back and snored. He rested on his front paws and observed Ruan Shiqing from the corner of his eyes, and then found that the other party closed the book in his hand and slowly Step towards him.
The living room is covered with a thick carpet, which is thick to the touch.
Ruan Shiqingtu was light and did not wear slippers. He walked barefoot to him, naturally found a sunny spot, sat down against him, and spread the book on his knees.
Rong Heng turned his face and saw the sunlight dancing on his dark and thick eyelashes. The fair skin was luminous, and even tiny fluff could be seen.
The white ear that I wanted to kiss but never got was dyed with a light pink.
It was so beautiful that His Royal Highness couldn't help swallowing again.
