Chapter 62
Chu Yang looked at Chi Yan fidgeting around and felt that this guy had quite the potential to be a good husband.
After Chi Yan was done tidying up, he saw Chu Yang leaning against the doorframe watching him. She looked extremely well-behaved that he wanted to go over and pinch her cheeks, but didn't dare to.
"Done." Chi Yan said.
"Mm." After Chi Yan left, Chu Yang lied on the big bed to sleep. Big beds are indeed more comfortable. Chu Yang fell asleep very quickly.
Chu Yang was sleeping in the room while Chi Yan had nothing to do outside, so he took out his unassembled model kit to continue assembling it.
About two hours later, Chu Yang finally woke up. As she opened the door, she saw Chi Yan sitting carefully on the carpet assembling his aircraft carrier model kit.
Hearing the noise, Chi Yan looked up to see Chu Yang standing at the door in a daze, with some strands of hair sticking out. Perhaps in a lover's eyes there are beauties everywhere, Chi Yan clenched his fists. His girlfriend was just too adorable!
Chi Yan quickly went to find a fresh, clean towel and toothbrush and such to give to her. "The bathroom is this way."
"Okay."
After Chu Yang washed her face she finally became much more spirited. Chi Yan took out some cherry tomatoes again and poured her a cup of warm water before turning on the TV.
Indeed having a boyfriend was different - being served felt really delightful and comfortable.
Chi Yan sat down next to Chu Yang, "Do you want to go back to school?"
Chu Yang shook her head and glanced outside at the blazing sun, "Nah, let's wait until the sun isn't so harsh first."
"Alright." Of course Chi Yan didn't want to go back to school so quickly. Once they were back at school, his girlfriend wouldn't be by his side anymore.
After eating her fill, Chu Yang opened Weibo to check if there were any customers today, then also routinely posted the daily weather forecast.
When Chu Yang took out her crystal ball, this was Chi Yan's first time seeing the tool Chu Yang used to "earn meals". "Can I touch it?"
"Sure." Chu Yang placed the crystal ball in Chi Yan's hand. "Go ahead and feel it."
Chi Yan held it very carefully, somewhat afraid that he might accidentally break it. He placed it on the soft couch, "I'll just touch it a bit."
In fact the texture was similar to ordinary crystal balls, it was just that mentally he felt this was no ordinary crystal ball so the psychological experience was different.
Chu Yang picked up the crystal ball again and took out a stand to place it on, she should forecast tomorrow's weather first. Seeing that Chu Yang was about to "work", Chi Yan hurriedly turned off the TV to keep the environment quiet.
Chu Yang placed her hands on the crystal ball, closed her eyes, and the crystal ball lit up for a moment before she quickly opened her eyes again. As she posted the microblog update of the weather forecast, she also told Chi Yan, "Tomorrow there will be heavy rains, huge massive ones that might trigger mudslides in the suburbs, and there will be more typhoon weather ahead. So remember to always bring an umbrella when going out, okay?"
Seeing the crystal ball light up in that moment, Chi Yan felt his worldview had been shocked. Although he knew about his girlfriend's abilities, seeing it happen still made him feel astonished mentally.
Not hearing a response from Chi Yan, Chu Yang looked over at him and saw him staring blankly at her crystal ball. Chu Yang waved her hand in front of his eyes, "What's wrong?"
Chi Yan regained awareness, "Nothing. I'm just too shocked." Chi Yan scratched his head, embarrassed.
Chu Yang smiled. "You'll get used to it later. Just get accustomed to it."
"Mm mm." But... isn't it unsafe to do this in school?" Chi Yan thought about Chu Yang doing this in public at school, wouldn't it allow others to find out about her abilities? Then wouldn't that lead to police reports, getting sent to research institutes to be dissected for study and whatnot... Within two seconds Chi Yan had thought of a bunch of fearful possibilities.
Seeing his expression, Chu Yang already knew what he was thinking. "No, I just do it behind closed curtains in the dorms. Only my dormmates know about it. Also, our country actually has quite a number of gifted talents, most people like me get recruited by the state, and even if recruitment fails we won't get dissected for research."
Anyway in her past life she didn't experience that fate, and the book's setting was similar to modern society, so Chu Yang wasn't worried.
Chi Yan thought about some of the gifted talents his family had interacted with before, right, his girlfriend didn't have any extra arms or legs or anything like that. "Mm mm."
Chu Yang continued looking at her Weibo private messages - today there were two customers. One customer was going overseas for a week soon but kept feeling restless, so he wanted to ask if the trip would go smoothly. After all the world wasn't that peaceful, and instability or regime changes could happen anytime in foreign countries, just so happened the country he was visiting tended to have frequent government overthrows.
Chu Yang quickly operated with the crystal ball again. This time it took slightly longer. Chi Yan watched for awhile before continuing to observe his girlfriend's complexion, still remembering how pale she had looked after the bus incident when they first met.
After about five minutes Chi Yan didn't even dare to make any sound or move, only watching fixedly. Finally Chu Yang opened her eyes, with an extremely solemn expression as she messaged the client with her phone, "I advise you not to go, I saw war." She saw war.
The customer quickly sent the payment over with a "Thank you."
Seeing that Chu Yang's face didn't look good, Chi Yan asked softly, "What's wrong?"
Chu Yang drank some water before explaining, "Just now a customer asked if his upcoming trip to Country N would go smoothly. I saw war, very cruel war."
"Country N?" Chi Yan's expression changed.
Chu Yang noticed, "What is it?"
Chi Yan explained, "I think my cousin is about to go to Country N for business. His family just acquired a mine there."
Chu Yang was very serious, "Don't go recently, absolutely don't go."
Chi Yan, "Then I'll go call him."
"Mm."
Chi Yan went to the balcony area to make the call while Chu Yang continued looking at the other customer's request - that one was simpler, the customer wanted to ask if meeting his online friend would go smoothly.
Chu Yang quickly replied: Smoothly.
Then the payment came in, her business for the day was settled.
Chu Yang stretched lazily before noticing the fitness equipment placed to the side. She should exercise a bit.
On Chi Yan's end, "Bro, didn't you say you were going to Country N recently?"
"Mm. What's up? Since when do you care so much about my schedule? Short on money lately? Bro will transfer you some later. Heard you got yourself a girlfriend? Can't lack money, remember to buy your girlfriend lots of food. Bring her to meet bro when you're free, bro will size up your taste in girls..." Before Chi Yan could say anything, Xiao Yang had already rattled off a bunch.
Chi Yan interrupted him, "Bro, don't go to Country N recently."
Xiao Yang: "What's up? Did something happen with Country N? I haven't heard any news about it. Did your uncle's in-laws leak you some inside news?" Chi Jin's maternal grandparents were in the diplomatic field.
