Astral Flower-Chapter 142: Interaction

Long Qian Xing walked closer to Nan Hua and took the seat in front of her. This is the first time he came here after he was assigned this task. After all, there was nothing that happened, so he simply went on patrol and busy reviewing the information during the day.

"Since I have changed my address to you, shouldn’t you also change the way you addressed me, Nan Hua?"

Nan Hua furrowed her eyebrows and looked at Long Qian Xing. He’s older than her and it was a bit impolite to call him with his name directly. Even when technology had advanced, there was still some culture retained.

Politeness was one of them.

"Brother Long?" Nan Hua called tentatively.

Long Qian Xing’s eyes flashed. He nodded with a smile. "That’s good. Then from now on, you will call me with this name."

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing who made the decision unilaterally and nodded. It seemed that she had to add one more attribute to Long Qian Xing’s evaluation: shameless.

"How do you feel?" Long Qian Xing asked.

Today should be the first time Nan Hua ever encountered such incident in the real life. There was no way she should be able to be so calm and composed if she had no prior experience beforehand.

Nan Hua blinked her eyes. "I’ll be fine."

"If you think it’s hard to bear." Long Qian Xing paused. He felt that his experience couldn’t be used for Nan Hua. Ever since he was a kid, he was already exposed to some things that might not be suitable for children to see.

His grandfather’s lame excuse was that if he wanted to be a soldier, he had to be ready to face these things.

Of course, he rebelled when he was teenager by running away and started a company on his own.

And then got beaten up.

*cough*

He’s a rough person and had thick skin, which was why he didn’t have any feeling whatsoever when facing these kind of things. But the person in front of him is a soft, squeamish girl and different from him.

For the first time, Long Qian Xing felt that it was difficult to coax a person.

"...You can cry."

Nan Hua: "..."

Even if she could pretend to cry, she had never cried for so many years. Because she learned in the hard way that tears are useless.

No matter how many times she cried and how much tears were poured out, it would not help her in any way in her world. Only when facing the people outside would she know that there were still people playing this set.

But in the face of hardened soldiers...

What was the use of tears?

It would only make her look weak.

"I’m not going to cry." Nan Hua pursed her lips. "I’m not a child who only know how to cry."

Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua and then nodded in a hurry. "Yes, you’re not a child."

He looked at Nan Hua carefully and smiled faintly, "But it’s not only children who can cry. If you feel grievances, sadness, or even joy, you can still cry."

You can still cry.

Nan Hua didn’t know when was the last time this kind of sentence was given to her. That was if someone ever told her this when she was young.

She raised her head and looked at Long Qian Xing. His black pupil was staring in her direction, looking gentle and coaxing. It was completely different from his usually confident and arrogant look that he showed to others.

Nan Hua felt that the scene in front of her eyes were really dazzling.

Even though he was only staring in her direction, she felt that it was a bit too much for her eyes to see for some reasons.

In the end, Nan Hua replied, "I don’t want to cry."

Long Qian Xing smiled and nodded. His fingers itched a bit, wanting to pat Nan Hua’s head to comfort her, but he was afraid of scaring her away if he did this. Coughing slightly, he turned his head away and thought about other things to talk with Nan Hua.

"Since the second person is in the Block B, there will be a room vacated in block C for you to rest." Long Qian Xing knew that it was impossible for Nan Hai Yan to arrange Nan Hua to stay in Block B. In fact, everyone from Block B would be investigated tightly. "You can rest again after this."

"En." Nan Hua nodded.

"If you can’t sleep." Long Qian Xing tapped his light brain on his left arm. "You can contact me anytime."

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing with a dazed expression and then lowered her eyes. "I can’t bother Brother Long."

"What bother?" Long Qian Xing pursed his lips. "That’s not a trouble at all. Don’t worry, my father is even more restless and often called me in the middle of the night just to send me out for mission because I disturbed his quality time."

Nan Hua blinked her eyes before understanding what quality time that Long Qian Xing meant.

She silently felt that it was no wonder that Long Qian Xing’s father wanted to send his son out. Which man wanted to be caught by their children when they were having fun with their wife?

The second thought in her mind was that Long Qian Xing’s father was still very energetic. If she was not wrong, he was already in his fifties.

But the lifespan of the people here were quite long.

Except for special circumstances, many of them could live up to 100 years old without any problem at all. Some could even live longer, so for them 50 years old was still middle age and not old yet.

Ding!

There was a faint notification on Long Qian Xing’s light brain. He glanced at it and sneered internally and closed the text indifferently.
