I see. When Tao Le heard this, he already understood Ximu's true thoughts.
He regarded himself as an important human resource of the company, so he showed up in person as a courtesy.
After saving each other's lives, I still have medical value, so I can still be valued by him.
This reason is quite reasonable and barely makes sense.
At that moment, Tao Le smiled and nodded: "Then I'll trouble Mr. Xi."
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the entire car immediately became relaxed.
Only Daguan himself fell into deep thought.
To be precise, there was a logical error in his understanding of the Lord.
Not only did the Lord not impose any punishment for this unworthy behavior, he even gave a special explanation, just to put His Highness Tao Le at ease.
There was no precedent for this kind of thing in the imperial royal family's reward and punishment history that he shared.
Tao Le never thought that one day she and Ximu would be able to sit together like this and chat easily.
Ximu's knowledge is extremely broad, and it seems that no matter what she says, the other person can pick up the conversation and talk clearly.
Later, Tao Le began to admire Ximu.
Putting aside different races, the Mio people's understanding of technology and the universe is far beyond what the current Blue Star people can match.
Even if he deliberately lowered his thoughts to a level that she could understand, a casual sentence would make her suddenly enlightened.
If she were not a doctor, but a scientist, she would probably be overjoyed at this moment, and with the help of Ximu, she could solve problems that had not been solved for many years.
Unfortunately, she is not. She is only slightly interested in the development of medical-related technologies.
Daguan had already received Ximu's order and lowered the speed again and again.
But no matter how slowly he drove, Tianshui City was still very close.
"Anyway, thank you for saving me in time." Tao Le jumped out of the car and thanked him again.
She was so polite, but Ximu felt inexplicably unhappy.
"I thought we were at least friends." He took off his coat and put it on Tao Le again:
"I hope that we can get along with each other not only as colleagues in the company, but also as friends."
Becoming friends with Tao Le was just the first step of his plan.
Not too fast, not to scare her.
He stood there quietly, waiting for Tao Le's reply.
His heart was beating vigorously, a faint blush appeared on his face, and his eyes were dark and deep, looking at Tao Le constantly.
Tao Le didn't notice Ximu's appearance.
"Friends?" This was something she had never thought of.
Can she actually become friends with the Mio people and His Highness Ximu?
But why not? She and him had saved each other in the past, and they had also rubbed hands together. Even chatting was so pleasant and relaxed.
Not to mention his sky-high looks and extremely beautiful voice, which are always a pleasure to watch.
He rescued the people of Tianqiao Village and found a place for them to live.
He sent people to build a factory and found a job for his father that was enough to rekindle his enthusiasm.
He donated a large amount of medical equipment to a hospital and built a robot like Xiaoqi that can do kitchen chores.
He promised to deal with the murderous organization that was full of crimes and would remove a big cancer for Blue Star.
Everything that happened since his rebirth showed that Ximu's three views were correct and enough to make friends.
Speaking of which, it should be an honor for her to have such a person as her friend.
The premise is that she can forget the nightmare of her previous life.
Broken walls and ruins, thousands of miles of scorched earth, bloody winds, and corpses littering the fields.
The despair and fear that was deeply engraved in her heart would never be forgotten.
Those dark memories that she didn't want to recall or mention were locked deeply into the box deep in her heart, sealed and locked, and would not be opened easily.
But Simu's existence itself is the key.
As soon as she saw him, she would unconsciously relive her past and experience the trembling and fear all over again.
She is afraid of him.
Deep in her heart, every organ, every bone, and even every drop of blood on her body was filled with fear of the Mio people.
This fear will not dilute or disappear due to rebirth.
In front of Simu, she never dared to relax at all.
He must monitor his appearance every minute, lest he be a little bit dissatisfied and cause trouble to Blue Star.
It was destined that she and him could not stand on an equal footing and interact like friends.
Can lions and zebras, great white sharks and sardines also become friends?
One party is temporarily amiable, while the other party is always trembling.
Such a forced friendship is destined not to last long, and on the day when the friendship collapses, it may even bring disaster.
Under Xi Mu's expectant eyes, Tao Le spoke: "Thank you, Mr. Xi, for your kindness. It's just..."
As soon as she said the turning point, Simu's face immediately fell.
"You are of noble birth and have a wealthy family." Tao Le tried hard to find a reason and even used the honorific:
"And I'm just an ordinary doctor. My words are tasteless, my appearance is hateful, and what I see and hear is far different from you."
Simu didn't say anything, he just stared at her face silently, not knowing what he was thinking.
"We are not on the same level, and we are destined not to have a common language." She spoke faster, fearing that if she spoke any slower, she would lose the courage to speak out in the increasingly heavy atmosphere.
"So I can only live up to your good intentions."
She talked so much and thought she had made it very clear, but what Simu understood was different from hers.
"The words are tasteless and the appearance is hateful?" He repeated Tao Le's words.
"Why do you deliberately demean yourself like this?"
"Well, this is my correct understanding of myself." Tao Le has always considered himself a self-aware person.
Xi Mu and Tao Le were only two steps away from each other at the moment.
He looked at her with burning eyes and moved his feet.
One step, two steps.
His body was almost touching Tao Le.
Tao Le was very uncomfortable with having his safe distance invaded.
Moreover, the sense of oppression caused by the opponent's height and shape has become more intense.
She subconsciously took a step back, but Simu still pressed forward.
"Mr. Xi, you"
Tao Le did not continue speaking. Because Simu's hands suddenly fell on her shoulders.
"Doctor Tao." Ximu's expression was so serious that she didn't dare to refuse.
"You are the most beautiful and outstanding woman I have ever seen." He looked directly into Tao Le's eyes, the golden flowers in his pupils were bright.
"Although it was a bit abrupt just now, it was my sincere words. I hope you will consider my proposal carefully and give me a reasonable answer."
The warm power flowed along Ximu's hands, along the shoulders, into Tao Le's limbs, and then rushed to her face.
Tao Le's face was tinged with pink all over, and the corners of his eyes and cheeks were even more picturesque, especially bright.
Ximu had never seen Tao Le look like this before, and he was immediately fascinated by the sight. He unexpectedly lowered his head and kissed her gently on the forehead.
His lips were still as warm and soft as before, and between their lips and forehead, both of them felt an inexplicable shiver, which went straight into their lungs, brains and hearts.
