They suddenly remembered that Director Xiao, who had always been stern and unsmiling, was always in a daze before being taken away by "those people", and then smiled tenderly.
Someone once boldly asked him, "Director Xiao, why are you so happy? Has anything good happened?"
He was very gentle, a little embarrassed, with a lingering look on his face, "It hasn't happened yet, but I hope she can agree."
"Director Xiao is such a good person, he will agree to anything he asks of others."
He smiled, so tenderly that it made people drowsy, "I hope this is the case if I lend you some good words."
Could it be that the thing that made Director Xiao lose his mind and smile?
Is it a proposal?
But……
Several people looked complicated.
When he looked at Aslan, there was always a hint of pity in his eyes.
Aslan's eyes were red and he stared blankly at the ceiling.
Tang Rou helped her up and took the book. No one stopped her from leaving this time. They got out of the way without saying a word, and no one spoke.
Walking outside the office, she asked Aslan, "What are you thinking about?"
Aslan lowered his head, looked at the diamond ring in his palm, and his chest heaved a few times.
"I was wondering why Xiao Ning was so cruel. He said he wanted to propose, but ended up blocking me."
"Why, he left as soon as he said he wanted to leave."
"If you say break up, break up without giving me any time to react."
Tang Rou was speechless.
Aslan cried, "What do you mean, he regrets it? He doesn't like me anymore? You bastard, who wants his broken ring? Why don't you let me feel better after we break up!"
Tang Rou patted her back, not knowing how to comfort her.
Because she got the answer in that world.
Someone told her that people who have died will appear in that world in a clear form with their unfulfilled wishes.
Xiao Ning...
I'm afraid it's gone.
She cried and said, "I just want to ask him why he doesn't want me anymore."
"Rou, I want to tell him that I am willing." Asselan could hardly breathe. He clenched the ring hard and pressed it on his chest. "Am I particularly worthless? He has blocked me. Why am I still here?"
Thinking of him, I hope he can look back at me."
"I am willing to marry him."
"Rou, I lied. I can't forget him."
Aslan squatted on the ground and cried loudly. There was an ugly shadow behind the underwater glass tunnel where their backs were leaning.
It hid in the algae and watched her quietly.
It has a bluish-gray skin.
The body is unsightly and piled up like a lump.
And a pair of sad eyes.
…
After digesting the matter of being proposed to and then broken up with, Asselan was very excited and wanted to throw the ring away, but Tang Rou quickly stopped her.
Aslan thought for a moment and took the ring back into his hand.
With red eyes, he said viciously, "Yes, when Xiao Ning comes back, I will throw this ring in his face."
Tang Rou just didn't want Asselan to throw away Xiao Ning's relics.
Well, it's better to misunderstand like this than to let her know the cruel truth.
Aslan didn't sleep all night and was tired from crying. After Tang Rou sent her back, she returned to the experimental base.
She felt something was wrong. In Xiao Ning's office, Tang Rou vaguely saw a pile of heavy documents under the corner between the table and the single bed, with the word "Reject" written in red on them.
There may be some secret behind this, or it may be related to the cause of Xiao Ning's death.
But before she could understand those things, she received a phone call.
The medical center in District S asked her to go there.
.
From a distance, I saw the medical center shining with a bright white light, like a huge metal cemetery.
Before she could walk over, the people inside had already opened the door, and quickly walked out several people in white uniforms. They walked up to Tang Rou expressionlessly, obviously knowing her identity.
"Take him away quickly. This mermaid has no formal procedures, so we can't rescue him."
"Why?" Tang Rou was surprised, "He is an experimental subject of the base, why can't he be rescued?"
The therapist at the front threw two bottles of medicine to her, "If you are willing, apply it to him yourself. These things can reduce inflammation."
"But his wounds are so serious..."
The man interrupted her, "Rescuing experimental subjects requires a quota. He does not have a number or an identity chip. We cannot violate the procedures."
After they left, there was almost no one in the medical room.
Tang Rou was caught off guard by such an unusual situation. She looked in the direction of last night and found the mermaid's room. When she opened the door, the air was filled with the smell of blood.
The mermaid is still asleep.
She was still covered with her white coat, and her long, light-blond hair fell from the metal frame like swaying algae.
Even though it was dark all around, there was still a faint watery light on his body, and the sparkling fish tail was like a handicraft carved from a huge gem, shining brightly in the darkness.
But Tang Rou could clearly see the unhealed wounds on his body.
The white chest was crisscrossed with bright red bloodstains, and the skin and flesh were turned out, like flowers blooming in full bloom.
The mermaid had noticed it the moment she came in. He frowned, as if enduring pain, and raised his eyes to look at her.
Very quiet, doesn't cry or fuss, is fragile and well-behaved.
Tang Rou's heart was almost broken.
"How are you?"
She walked over quickly, and the mermaid raised his hand to hold her wrist. His fingers were cold and dry, and the petal-like thin lips were drained of blood and a little dry.
His originally crystal clear fish scales and skin were dry and severely dehydrated.
After Tang Rou stood still, the mermaid raised her upper body with her arms, as if she wanted to get closer to her, and put her head on her waist with her eyes closed.
The clothes were also held tightly in his hands.
In order to prevent his wound from opening due to large movements, Tang Rou could only press his shoulders forcefully and circle the person weakly.
"do not move."
Looking at it from a distance, it looks like a hug.
She patted the mermaid's shoulder gently and said to him warmly, "It's okay, it's okay."
The mermaid lowered his head, the white coat covering his body slipped off, and the scarlet blood marks on his back looked like torn wings.
They actually left such a scarred and beautiful creature to die in the treatment room for a whole night. How could they bear it?
Tang Rou was extremely irritable. The mermaid seemed to be aware of her emotions. He raised his head and looked at her from bottom to top. His silver eyes were moist and clean, and his pale fingers tightly grasped the corners of her clothes, looking a little uneasy.
"I'm not angry with you."
Tang Rou looked around and found that the cart from last night was still there. She pushed the cart over, opened the lid of the water tank and let the mermaid in.
"Let's get out of here first."
The mermaid was very obedient and showed full trust in her. Without knowing where Tang Rou was going to take him, she struggled to support her upper body and moved into the water tank bit by bit.
After turning around, his head emerged from the water. His long, light golden hair stuck to his skin like seaweed, which was particularly attractive.
