In the end, Ji Xingyuan was the first to react.

He frowned tightly, walked up to Yucheng, looked down at him: "What were you doing just now?"

Yu Cheng endured the pain and got up from the ground, gritted his teeth: "You don't care what I'm doing, Ji Xingyuan, don't meddle in my own business."

After finishing speaking, he left viciously.

Ji Xingyuan stared at his leaving back, looked at Xi Qing: "He didn't do anything to you, did he?"

"No, it's just that the smile is quite greasy." Xi Qing felt that Yucheng was most likely ill, and ran here at night to go crazy, "How are you getting along?"

Ji Xingyuan: "..." Aren't you all getting along this afternoon?

But I can't say that clearly, I can only nod: "It's good, can I take him out to play later? My friend likes him very much."

Ji Xingyuan made an excuse at random. After all, Huo Yan had already told him, and there would be many times after this situation. He had to make an agreement with Xi Qing in advance.

"Of course!" Xi Qing nodded repeatedly. Even if Ji Xingyuan didn't say anything, he would still find opportunities to let them get along more. Now that Ji Xingyuan has taken the initiative, he definitely has no reason not to agree.

After Ji Xingyuan left, Xi Qing looked at the little white dog in his arms and asked the system: "Tell me, is there any way to make Zhou Shi'an get better soon?"

Xi Qing felt that he couldn't wait any longer.

[Yes, the food you grow contains a small amount of mental power fluctuations, if you let him take it all the time, maybe the effect will be better. 】

"That's right." Xi Qing thought for a while, and felt that the system's words were quite reasonable, and immediately put the little white dog back on the bed, and took a few strawberries and apples to wash.

Xi Qing moved quickly, and immediately came back with the washed strawberries, and he put the strawberries in front of the little white dog: "Bai Bai, do you want to eat?"

But what puzzled him was that the little white dog who was originally very enthusiastic about strawberries and would eat them whenever he saw them seemed not very interested today, with drooping eyebrows and eyes, and he didn't even look at Xi Qing's hands.

How is this going?

Xi Qing was a little puzzled, and he put his hand in front of the little white dog again: "Baibai, it's a strawberry, don't you want to eat it?"

Little White Dog: "..."

Xi Qing was really confused, and took out a washed and cut apple again: "Bai Bai, do you want to eat an apple?"

The little white dog remained silent.

"What's going on here? Could it be that he separated from Ji Xingyuan and missed him, so he closed himself up?" Xi Qing stared at the silent back of the little white dog, lost in thought.

The system thought for a while, and said: [Probably not, maybe you are angry? 】

angry?

Xi Qing looked at the little white dog, and found that it lowered its head and closed its eyes. Although it was difficult to see any expression on its hairy face, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was getting angry.

But why get angry?

Xi Qing carefully recalled what happened just now, and found that since Ji Xingyuan brought it down, the only thing the little white dog saw was him standing and talking with Yu Cheng, and then he kicked Yu Cheng.

So, could it be because of Yucheng?

Xi Qing thought it was very possible. In the original book, Zhou Shian and Yu Cheng were very good friends. Later, because he knew that Yu Cheng liked him, he gradually alienated him.

So it is very possible that Zhou Shi'an misunderstood Yucheng's actions just now, thinking that there is something wrong with the two of them, so he is angry now?

Xi Qing felt that he had understood the truth, and quickly said: "Actually, I have nothing to do with Yucheng. Really, he just wanted to ask me for a small matter. Now that I have made it clear, he will never come to me again. "

Huo Yan slowly raised his head and looked at Xi Qing, as if asking if it was true?

"It's true, of course it's true." Xi Qing repeatedly assured, but Yucheng's character is really not very good, Zhou Shi'an might be tricked if he is with him in the future, Xi Qing felt that he should remind Zhou Shi'an Better.

"Actually, Yucheng is not a very good person. Although I haven't gotten along with him very much, I feel that he is not a good person."

Huo Yan nodded quickly, yes, he is really not a good person.

Huo Yan has dealt with the royal family for so many years. In his opinion, although the people of the royal family are stupid, they can at least put themselves in the right position in the past. But these years, the royal family has caused a lot of troubles, and every item has Yu Cheng's in it. shadow.

A person who has never experienced any real big event, trying to occupy everything with the little cleverness in his stomach, this is Huo Yan's only evaluation of Yucheng.

Therefore, when he saw Yu Cheng disrespecting Xi Qing just now, Huo Yan was not angry with Xi Qing, but was angry at Yu Cheng's actions. He could turn a blind eye to Yu Cheng's actions before. One eye, but now that the other party is rushing to seek death, he is too embarrassed to be polite.

Onlooker system: […]

It really feels amazing, every time the two people's real intentions are separated by hundreds of thousands of miles, but they still meet miraculously. Is this the legendary fate?

After Xi Qing finished explaining, Huo Yan felt relieved, and did not refuse what Xi Qing fed.

While feeding the little white dog, Xi Qing sent a message to Huo Yan, wanting to tell him about the auction, Xi Qing turned on his optical brain, and after thinking about how to express it for a long time, he began to send a message to Huo Yan: "Marshal, I want to Excuse me, will you participate in the auction next week?"

"buzz"

The sudden vibration made Huo Yan stop eating strawberries. After realizing that it was his own optical brain, he quickly looked up at Xi Qing. After making sure that he didn't notice it, Huo Yan breathed a sigh of relief and continued to eat slowly. Green handed over strawberries.

But then, the optical brain seemed to be wound up, and it started to ring non-stop.

"buzz" "buzz"

Huo Yan: "..."

At first, Huo Yan thought that Shen Jian and the others had sent a message. The reminder function after the optical brain is muted is similar to the movement of the smallest static electricity, which will produce movement in the body parts wearing the optical brain, but will not make sound.

But as soon as Huo Yan looked up, he saw Xi Qing who was holding the optical brain. The content on the screen of the optical brain showed that he was on the phone, and the caller was himself!

Huo Yan was stunned, never expecting that Xi Qing would call him now, but now he couldn't find a reason to go out to answer the phone, so he could only lay down on the bed, waiting for Xi Qing to hang up the phone by himself.

At first Xi Qing planned to send a message to Huo Yan directly, but then he thought about it, since he had something to ask Huo Yan for help, it would be impolite to send a message, so it would be better to call and say so.

But unexpectedly, no one answered Huo Yan's call. After the call was automatically hung up, Xi Qing thought that Huo Yan was busy, so he didn't call back.

In the middle of the night, after making sure that Xi Qing was asleep, Huo Yan slowly got up from the bed.

His physical condition has improved a lot now, and he is already able to move by himself. If you move carefully, you won't be discovered.

Huo Yan climbed out of the bed carefully. He originally planned to use his paws to unlock the door, but after trying several times, the chain couldn't reach it. Huo Yan looked at his short legs and fell into deep thought.

In the end, there was no other way, he could only take a few steps back, took a deep breath, made a run-up, and then jumped hard, hanging himself on the door lock.

Huo Yan kept swinging his paws, and finally, he finally opened the door with his own inertia.

After breathing the air outside the door, he was finally relieved.

Then he pulled out the optical brain and clicked on Xi Qing's call.

When awakened by the ringtone, Xi Qing was stunned, turned on the optical brain and found that it was Huo Yan who called.

"marshal?"

"Yeah." Huo Yan's voice came, "I was busy before, and I just found out that you called, are you asleep?"

"No, no, I haven't slept yet." Xi Qing shook his head repeatedly, Huo Yan's voice was very low, Xi Qing thought he was still busy with military affairs, "Marshal, haven't you rested yet?"

"Come on, what can I do for you?"

"Yes, are you free tomorrow? Can I ask you to meet? In Capital Star."

Xi Qing originally planned to talk directly to Huo Yan about the auction, but after thinking about it, there are still some things that he needs to talk to Huo Yan face to face.

After all, his personal ability and identity are limited. Huo Yan is the marshal, not only the power in his hands, but also the understanding of the Zerg race in these years of fighting against the Zerg race. If Huo Yan helps, the task will be much easier to complete .

"Okay." Huo Yan agreed without much hesitation. Xi Qing originally planned to hang up the phone, but heard his voice again: "At school, is someone bullying you?"

Hearing his voice, Xi Qing immediately thought of the incident that Yucheng came over tonight, but Huo Yan obviously didn't know about it, so he didn't think much about it, just said: "No."

"If anyone in school makes things difficult for you, please tell me." Huo Yan's voice was very low, but it carried a reassuring tone, "I can protect you, no matter what."

Xi Qing wanted to say no, but Huo Yan's voice came along with the sound of the wind, the sound of the wind that sounded obviously fierce, but at this moment it was like a wall, making people feel at ease and at ease.

After a long time, Xi Qing heard his own voice: "Okay."

Huo Yan hung up the phone for a long time before Xi Qing felt the strange feeling lingering in his heart slowly dissipate. He was about to put down his brain and go to sleep, but the next second, he suddenly found that the little white dog was gone.

"My God! Where's Zhou Shi'an!"

Xi Qing was startled, and quickly sat up from the bed.

After the lights were turned off, the dormitory was very dark, but Xi Qing's night vision ability is very good. It stands to reason that he should be able to find where Zhou Shi'an is soon, but he looked around the dormitory several times, but he was not found.

Until the next second, the door was suddenly opened a crack, and a furry head poked in.

Xi Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly got out of bed and hugged the little white dog in his arms: "Bai Bai, why did you go, you scared me so much!"

The little white dog was a little cold, obviously it had been out for a while, Xi Qing was afraid that it would catch a cold, so he quickly closed the door and prepared to get back under the covers, but when his hand touched the door lock, Xi Qing suddenly noticed something was wrong.

The door lock is so high, how did Zhou Shi'an touch it?

He shifted his gaze to the little white dog, and was stunned for a while, but in the end he didn't say anything, and turned back to the bed.

-

The next day is Shangyou's half-month holiday.

Shangyou will have a half-month vacation every month. Although it is not a weekend, it will also be a holiday for students to have a rest. The holiday is only one day. Xi Qing has prepared early in the morning. He has to start earlier, go to the Patent Institute first, and then go to the Meet Huo Yan.

Because time was a bit tight, after Xi Qing packed up the materials to be brought there, he hurried out with the little white dog, but he was stopped by Ji Xingyuan before he could leave the dormitory gate.

"Xi Qing, what are your plans today?"

"I'm going to Capital Planet, what's wrong?" Xi Qing looked at him.

Ji Xingyuan shook his head: "It's okay, it may be inconvenient for you to go to Capital Star to take it with you, do you want me..."

"Yes! Of course!" Xi Qing hurriedly handed Zhou Shi Ansai to him, "Thank you for helping me take care of it, you are such a good person."

After Xi Qing finished speaking, he left without looking back.

Ji Xingyuan and Huo Yan were left alone looking at each other.

Ji Xingyuan: "..." Although I don't know why, I always feel something weird.

Huo Yan: "..." Although I can't say the reason, I think my daughter-in-law is too enthusiastic about my nephew.

Xi Qing muttered to the system while walking: "I wasn't sure at first, but now, I'm sure!"

【What? 】The system is at a loss.

"Zhou Shi'an must have gone to the night party last night and Ji Xingyuan!" Xi Qing said mysteriously.

【…】The system can always be frightened by its host's over-jumping thinking.

"Think about it, the door lock is so high, how did Zhou Shi'an reach it? Someone must have opened the door for him before he could go out."

Xi Qing analyzed with reason and evidence, "Besides, even if Zhou Shi'an jumped up to open it by himself, then why did he open the door and go out? It must be a night lover, could it be sleepwalking?"

System: […] It is indeed the lover of the night party, but the lover is not the one you imagined.

Xi Qing thought that the system was convinced by him, so he laughed with great satisfaction: "They must have had an interaction yesterday afternoon, and the two bastards fell in love with Mung Bean! That's why they didn't even want to separate for just one night yesterday. Early this morning, Ji Xingyuan came to look for Zhou Shi'an."

"Very good, my [-] grasses are stable!"

Xi Qing was in a good mood, even when he went to the Patent Office, he was smiling.

The interstellar patent office has a wider scope of business than the one on earth. No matter what it is, as long as you can prove that the item is unique to you, you can apply for a patent. In this way, others cannot take advantage of it. Planting things for profit, but the application fee is also quite expensive.

The Patent Office receives a constant stream of people every day and deals with various things, but today, they feel that they have encountered a problem.

"Excuse me, Mr. Xi, what do you mean, apply for a patent for Apple?" the staff asked again.

Xi Qing nodded: "That's right, can't you?"

Staff: "According to the regulations, it is ok, but there are so many apples in the empire, how do you prove that this is unique to you?"

Xi Qing was puzzled: "It's not easy to prove, where else have you seen such a beautiful apple besides my place?"

Having said that, the staff did find it a bit difficult. After all, apples are no different than strawberries, they are everywhere. Although Xi Qing's is of better quality, it seems that this cannot be a criterion for judging uniqueness.

Just when the staff hesitated, a voice came: "Don't worry, this can definitely be used as a standard. Except for this little classmate, no one will be able to grow apples of this quality in another 100 years."

100 years happens to be the limited period of patent protection. After [-] years, this patent will not be protected.

Xi Qing turned his head and found that the person who spoke was a white-haired old man. He blinked and found that the old man seemed a little familiar.

Before Xi Qing could remember, the staff stood up first: "Hello, Minister."

"you are?"

"I'm from the Ministry of Agriculture, and my name is Zhang Xin." The Minister smiled kindly.

It was only then that Xi Qing remembered that when the group of people from the Academy of Sciences came to make trouble, Professor Wu happened to mention the Ministry of Agriculture, and Xi Qing also saw news about the Ministry of Agriculture on Xingwang.

Both the Ministry of Agriculture and the Academy of Sciences are dedicated to agricultural research. In fact, the Ministry of Agriculture has achieved more results than the Academy of Sciences, but because the Academy of Sciences is too high-profile, and some of them are relatives of the royal family, the media will be more inclined to the Academy of Sciences every time they report For some, over time, the Academy of Sciences became much more famous than the Ministry of Agriculture.

"Okay, then I will declare right away." The staff member said that the declaration means that it must be reported to the superior first, and the patent application will not be successful until the approval is approved.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xi Qing went up to shake hands with Minister Zhang: "Hello, Minister Zhang, I am Xi Qing."

"Hello, I read a lot of reports on the strawberries you planted on Starnet, and you are amazing." Minister Zhang said.

At that time, the strawberries planted by Xi Qing were widely circulated on StarNet after the trouble caused by the Academy of Sciences, and many people tried to contact Xi Qing, wanting to obtain the strawberries in his hands for research, but they were all rejected by the school in the end. up.

Minister Zhang also looked at a lot of photos. When he was surprised that Xi Qing could grow such an excellent strawberry variety, he also wondered whether he was also good at other fruits.

Minister Zhang really wanted to chat with Xi Qing, but he had to give up because of the school's polite refusal, but he did not expect to meet him at the Patent Court today.

When he saw the apple in Xi Qing's hand, Dean Zhang was even more shocked. He didn't expect that Xi Qing could also grow apples so well, which surprised him even more than those big and delicious strawberries.

After all, strawberry seeds have not been circulated in the market for a long time after they were taken back by the Academy of Sciences. It is very likely that Xi Qing was able to grow such good strawberries because he discovered high-quality seeds by mistake.

But apples are different. Apples are the main fruit in the empire now. Basically every orchard has them, and a lot of them flow into the market every year, but the quality of those apples is almost the same.

But under such circumstances, Xi Qing was able to grow such excellent apples. It is very likely that he purified and improved the existing seeds.

Minister Zhang only thought of such a possibility, and he looked at Xi Qing with enthusiasm: "Little classmate, do you have time, can we communicate?"

Xi Qing wanted to nod his head, he actually admires people like Minister Zhang who do things silently, but he was still in a hurry to see Huo Yan, so he could only shake his head apologetically: "I'm sorry, Minister Zhang, I still have important things to do. Can you do it next time?"

"Of course!" Minister Zhang nodded repeatedly, "This is my contact information, you can find me whenever you are free."

"Okay, thank you." As soon as Xi Qing finished speaking, the staff came to call him, saying that Apple's patent had been approved, and asked Xi Qing to go and collect the materials and patent seal.

A patent seal is a device similar to emitting a laser. Put a patented object under the device, and the laser will be emitted into the object to form a mark, which is the name of the patent holder.

The logo can be seen under the sunlight, which is equivalent to marking your items with your own mark, so that no matter who changes them, they still belong to you.

Xi Qing took the good things, bid farewell to Minister Zhang, and left the Patent Office.

After he left, the director of the patent office came out: "Wait and wait, are you really waiting for me?"

Minister Zhang did not meet Xi Qing by accident. Shangyou did not disclose his contact information, so he could not contact Xi Qing. As the Minister of Agriculture, his words and deeds were watched by the media and the Academy of Sciences. If you go to look for Xi Qing with great fanfare, you will only be discovered by everyone.

Minister Zhang had guessed before that Xi Qing would definitely find an opportunity to come to the Patent Institute. After all, the fruits in his hand were too enviable, and it would only be reliable if he applied for a patent.

So I came here every day to wait for him, but I didn't expect that today was finally what he waited for.

"No way, good character." Minister Zhang smiled, and it was obvious that he was in a good mood.

Director: "Are you going to invite Xi Qing to participate in that project?"

"I think so, but he won't necessarily agree." Minister Zhang is so eager to find Xi Qing, partly because of that project.

"Let's find a chance to ask, that's a good thing." The director said slowly.

-

After Xi Qing left the patent office, he went to Mingxi Villa, and then sent a location to Huo Yan. Then, he waited for Huo Yan to come over while using the planter left by the person in charge of the first orchard last time to plant seeds.

Huo Yan came very quickly, and after about 10 minutes, Xi Qing heard the sound of military boots hitting the ground.

He hurried over: "Marshal, you are here."

"Well, what's the matter?" Huo Yan came here for the first time, looked around, and found that this was a barren mountain, but for some reason, he always felt that the land under his feet was a bit strange.

"Let me show you something." Xi Qing squatted down, grabbed a handful of dirt and showed it to Huo Yan.

Huo Yan also squatted down involuntarily. Xi Qing's hands were very white, with slender fingers and well-defined joints. The black soil on the palm made the palms extremely white, especially the little dirt between the fingers, which made Huo Yan unable to remove it. look.

"Marshal, did you find out!" Seeing Huo Yan's eyes were motionless, Xi Qing thought he had noticed something abnormal, but Huo Yan suddenly moved his eyes away, and said in a slightly uncomfortable voice, "What?"

"Look here." Xi Qing pointed to the dark purple particles in the soil, "Did you see it?"

He was afraid that Huo Yan would not be able to see him, so he moved his hands forward vigorously. He was already squatting, so suddenly his feet became a little unstable, and Xi Qing suddenly fell to the ground without noticing it.

Xi Qing originally thought that he would inevitably stumble, and was ready to lose face in front of Huo Yan, but he didn't expect to be suddenly grabbed by someone, and he fell into a warm embrace in a blink of an eye.

Xi Qing realized that he was sitting on Huo Yan's lap, and when Huo Yan fell to the ground, his cheeks were flushed, and he stood up quickly, stretching out his hand to pull Huo Yan up: "Marshal, I'm sorry, you didn't get caught by me. Does it hurt?"

"It's okay." Huo Yan shook his head. Afraid of Xi Qing's embarrassment, he immediately changed the subject, "I saw that purple particle, is that the energy stone?"

Xi Qing didn't expect Huo Yan to find out so quickly, and couldn't help being surprised: "That's right, Marshal, how did you find out."

"Energy fluctuations, I can feel it." Huo Yan coughed lightly, and quietly backed away, not wanting Xi Qing to see his red ear tips.

Xi Qing's eyes lit up, since Huo Yan found out by himself, it would be easy for him to explain, but before that, he had to clarify one thing.

Xi Qing looked at Huo Yan seriously and seriously: "Marshal, can I trust you?"
