Madam always runs away from home [Interstellar]

Erich stood aside just now and clearly witnessed the scene of Ren Xiao rejecting others.When he heard Ren Xiao say "I am the major general's wife", Erich couldn't help but feel that he made the right choice to come to David's birthday party.

Seeing Ren Xiao raised his head, Erich asked him in shock, "Why are you here?"

He was in a good mood, raised his hand and stroked Ren Xiao's head, and replied with a smile: "I don't worry about you, so I came here specially to pick you up."

At this time, on the holographic display screen in the main hall, there was a live broadcast of Brook holding David's hand and cutting the cake together.Ren Xiao stood up and said to Erich, "I'll go back with you after David finishes cutting the cake."

"Okay." Erich was a little surprised by Ren Xiao's positive reaction.

After the live broadcast, there were rounds of applause and congratulations in the banquet hall.David received Ren Xiao's video and saw him saying to himself in front of the screen: "Happy birthday! This time I suddenly found out about your birthday, and I didn't prepare any gifts for you. I will carefully select and make up for you later. of."

"Gifts or something, I don't care." David just felt that the current situation was a bit weird, and couldn't help complaining to Ren Xiao, "We are all in the same place, why are you talking to me on the communicator?"

Ren Xiao replied helplessly, "I have to cross several human walls to get to your place. I think I should save it! I sent you a text message to say happy birthday to you personally before leaving."

"Are you leaving now?" David heard the meaning of Ren Xiao's words.

Ren Xiao nodded, and said frankly: "Erich came to pick me up, and I'm not used to this kind of atmosphere. I thought I'd finished watching you cut the cake, so I'd greet you in advance and go home first."

"Prefer sex over friends!" David immediately scolded him.

Ren Xiao looked embarrassed, and Erich, who glanced aside from the corner of the eye, smiled very proudly. He hurriedly comforted David and said, "It's not what you think, I'm really not used to this kind of rich and honored occasion, I will come again some day I came to play with you alone."

"Okay, okay, I'll let you go, look at how nervous you are." Before hanging up the communication, David did not forget to tell Ren Xiao, "That's right! You must come to me when you have time!"

Ren Xiao sincerely agreed: "Yes."

Seeing David's reluctance to Ren Xiao, Erich couldn't help sighing to Ren Xiao: "It seems that you have completely become good friends."

"Well, although David is a bit difficult to deal with, he has a simple personality. I like him a lot."

Ren Xiao answered this sentence as if nothing had happened, and immediately felt that it was a violation, and Erich immediately felt something strange.From the two brief conversations just now, both Ren Xiao and Erich felt the subtle changes that took place between them.The tit-for-tat confrontation in the past two days seemed to have never happened. In the conversation just now, the two looked like an old married couple who talked about everything.

After realizing this situation, the two were at a loss for a while and fell silent.Seeing more and more people gathered in the main hall, Erich took Ren Xiao's hand and walked towards the door.

Ren Xiao was held tightly by Erich all the way, and walked to the front yard of David's house.Feeling the bandage wrapped around Erich's palm, Ren Xiao couldn't help looking at his back, and apologized in a deep voice, "I'm sorry."

"Huh?" Erich stopped and looked back at Ren Xiao in shock, "It's fine, why are you apologizing?"

"...I hurt your hand, and I beat you that day." Ren Xiao pulled out the hand that Erich was holding, and said slowly.

"What are you talking about?" Erich raised his bandaged hand, glanced at it casually, and then comforted Ren Xiao and said, "This small injury is commonplace for me, so you don't have to worry about it. I should be the one who should apologize, I was the one who had a bad attitude that day, I was rude to you at first, and in the end I put you in the dungeon very uncalmly, causing you to hurt your back while sleeping."

While speaking, Erich grabbed Ren Xiao again, held his hand in his palm, and confessed affectionately to him: "I have always regretted putting you in the dungeon that day, and I am the one who should apologize. , I didn’t expect you to be ahead of me.”

"Then we are even in this matter, but..." Ren Xiao stopped involuntarily when he said this.

He originally wanted to say "but you saved my life, and I still owe you a big favor", but he was afraid that once he said that, the topic that Erich would continue with the trend would become a topic that asked him to "show you with your body." "Xu" to return his favor.It doesn't matter whether he is ruthless or selfish, even if he owes Erich his life, knowing that he may have paid a great price to save himself, but he can't force his heart because of it, if he doesn't like it, he doesn't like it, he You can't spend your whole life with someone you don't like.What's more, even if he searched for the result of "the earth does not exist", he never gave up the idea of ​​going back.Therefore, Ren Xiao felt that it was better for him not to say unnecessary words to Erich at this time, which would cause him to misunderstand.As a result, when the words reached his lips, Ren Xiao swallowed them abruptly.

Seeing that Ren Xiao hesitated to speak, Erich couldn't help asking him, "But what?"

Ren Xiao looked at Erich, half prevaricated, half sincerely replied: "But your behavior of shutting down people when you don't agree with each other is really bad."

Hearing Ren Xiao's words, Erich scratched his head and assured him, "It won't happen next time."

Ren Xiao raised his head and stared at Erich in front of him, like a big boy who knows his mistakes and corrects them.This was the first time that Erich showed weakness to him. Ren Xiao seized the opportunity and said to him a little arrogantly: "Okay, I will trust you for a while."

As a result, Ren Xiao can't go back to Earth for the time being.Even if the relationship between him and Erich is still unclear for a while, what Ren Xiao knows in his heart is that the Major General's Mansion is the only place for him to stay now.No matter whether Erich continued to treat him as the major general's wife or someone else, Ren Xiao never wanted to submissively behave in front of him as before.Since he had already revealed his identity to Erich before, he would take this opportunity to force Erich to change his understanding of him, re-examine the relationship between the two, and let him know that they are equal.

In the conversation just now, Erich had already felt the attitude that Ren Xiao wanted to convey.He didn't dislike Ren Xiao who was neither humble nor overbearing. Erich even felt an indescribable joy in his heart while feeling fresh.Different from the situation where Ren Xiao had been stubbornly resisting a few days ago, now he has self-assertion and dares to criticize and reject him as a reciprocal gesture, which is the ideal couple state in Erich's mind.

On the way home, Ren Xiao said that he would give David a birthday gift, Erich suddenly remembered and asked Ren Xiao: "When is your birthday?"

Seeing Ren Xiao startled for a moment, he quickly added: "I'm not asking about the original owner of this body, but about yourself."

Ren Xiao: "March 3."

Erich frowned: "Last week?"

"Ah."

"It's already passed, unfortunately..." Erich felt a little pity. The reason he asked Ren Xiao was to help him celebrate his birthday and let him feel the intimacy of home here.Now that he has friends, he can invite David to help celebrate.

Hearing Erich say it's a pity, Ren Xiao said hesitantly: "It's nothing to be a pity, I'm not sure if my memory is real, the birthday date in my memory may be false at all... "

"Why do you say that?" Erich stared nervously at Ren Xiao.

After a long silence, Ren Xiao said a little frustrated: "I searched for information about the earth yesterday, but the result I got was that it doesn't exist."

Erich didn't expect that Ren Xiao had only recently gone to search and found out about this situation, but at the same time, he also felt a little relieved when he heard Ren Xiao's conclusion.So, following Ren Xiao's words, he continued to say: "I also searched, and the situation is indeed the case."

Erich's words seemed to confirm Ren Xiao's previous suspicions, but he still asked Erich unwillingly: "There are thousands of planets in the universe, is it possible that Taz missed the earth and hasn't discovered it yet? "

At this moment, Erich saw Ren Xiao staring at him with eager affirmation, but in order to keep Ren Xiao by his side, he had no choice but to say: "It's not possible, I've already asked Taz's most authoritative astronomer."

The moment his voice fell, Erich saw the light that was shining in Ren Xiao's eyes just now, and it dimmed instantly.Ren Xiao lowered his head with a very depressed expression.Although Erich looked a little distressed, he still gritted his teeth and continued to weave this lie.

He said to Ren Xiao: "If you don't believe me, I can find that scholar and ask you to confirm with him personally."

Ren Xiao looked up at Erich and said hesitantly, "It's not that I don't believe you, it's just..."

"I understand that for such a big matter, you still have to confirm it yourself before you can be convinced." Erich continued Ren Xiao's words.Rather, in order for Ren Xiao to completely give up, Erich also hoped from the bottom of his heart that he could confirm it himself.

While speaking, the airship had already stopped at the gate of the Major General's Mansion.Nilan was already waiting at the door to welcome the major general and his wife.After seeing Nilan, Erich ordered him: "Go and invite Professor Theodore from the Academy of Astronomy."

Nilan: "Yes, Major General."

"Now?" Ren Xiao asked in surprise, "It's already so late."

"I'm worried that if you don't ask for the result, you will be so worried that you won't be able to sleep tonight." Erich said thoughtfully.

"...That's true." Regarding this point, Ren Xiao felt that Erich knew him very well.

Seeing that Ren Xiao was thinking of others but looked embarrassed, Erich pampered Ren Xiao's head and suggested to him with a smile: "Then let's ask him via video, how about it?"

"Yeah." Ren Xiao nodded fiercely, this is a good idea.

Erich took Ren Xiao back to the bedroom, dismissed the guards and attendants, and dialed Theodore's video call.Seeing Theodore appearing on the video display screen, Ren Xiao asked him impatiently, "Professor, does the earth really not exist?"

Theodore nodded at Ren Xiao, and replied: "Madam, it really doesn't exist."

Ren Xiao refused to give up, and confirmed to Theodore again: "Maybe you just haven't surveyed its location, but you can't confirm that it doesn't exist. Is there such a possibility as I mentioned?"

Theodore glanced at the video, and Erich, who was standing behind Ren Xiao, firmly rejected Ren Xiao: "Unfortunately, there is no such possibility as Madam said. I was sent by His Majesty to tour the universe when I was 25 years old. It took 200 years to go through every coordinate of the Milky Way, and there is absolutely no possibility of missing in the survey.”

Theodore was told by Erich earlier that if Ren Xiao asked about the earth, he must deny it.Today's interview called confirmation was the product of Erich's planning, and it was specially played for Ren Xiao to make him give up.

Poor Ren Xiao didn't know about it, and was kept in the dark by the collusion of the two.After listening to Professor Theodore's words, he was completely desperate, and he couldn't help but doubt himself and everything.

who I am?Where did it come from again?
