Only the core members of the Lin family can see this information, so maybe even Li Xuancheng himself doesn't know the seriousness of the matter. Even if he knew, it would make no difference.

Lin Xi also knew why the family elders were so anxious to promote the marriage. The first is to protect Li Xuancheng in this way, and the second is to establish a further strategic relationship with the Gu family, Li Xuancheng's mother's family.

Unlike the Gu family, which has always developed in the field of science and technology, many members of the Lin family have joined the military and have considerable influence in the military community. If the opponent insists on getting rid of Li Xuancheng, then the Lin family will use the same means to retaliate, whether it is frame-up or sneak attack and assassination, in terms of conspiracy, the major families are actually not much different, otherwise they would not be where they are today.

Lin Xi turned off the screen and picked up the photo frame on the small coffee table next to her. The photo frame kept switching according to her thoughts, and then a girl appeared.

The girl was walking briskly with a big backpack on her back. She looked back and smiled innocently.

Although she is still childish, she already has a faintly peerless appearance. Her big eyes were sparkling, revealing an aura of innocence. The long hair flying in the sun seemed to be dyed with a touch of gold on each tip.

That was Lin Xi in her childhood. When the photo was taken, she was three days away from her tenth birthday.

Then, on her tenth birthday, the whole world changed. The sun disappeared from her world, and there was only thick gray in the sky. Her backpack became heavier and heavier, making her breathless.

In the boundless gray, there are only a few bright colors, mostly from family elders, great-grandfather, father, and uncles. There is only one outsider, Li Xuancheng.

At that time, in the gray field, a tall young man with sunshine on his body walked towards her, leaned slightly and stretched out his hand: "Here, give me the bag, and I will help you carry it!"

The scene instantly cuts to several years later.

The young man, already dressed in military uniform, was leading the way, carrying her backpack. Wherever he walked, there were little bits of sunlight shining down, which refused to be extinguished and turned into a radiant and warm road. It was the only bright color in the gray field, so she wouldn't be lost.

The young man turned back, smiled and said, "When you grow up, I will let you be my bride."

The girl was a little confused and nodded.

Another year has passed.

Many elders appeared in the wilderness, some she knew and some she didn't. The elders talked happily with each other, and during the conversation they made a marriage contract. It was the girl's marriage contract, but no one came to ask her opinion. The adults thought she was still young and didn't need to express her opinion, just listen to what the adults said.

Fortunately, the other party to the marriage contract was the sunny elder brother, so the girl did not express any opinions. Even if she spoke, no one would listen.

From the age of ten, she felt that she understood most things, even some current affairs and military matters that gave adults a headache, she could understand them immediately. It comes naturally, without thinking.

But other things, everything in this gray world, she was confused about, as if her mind had stopped on the day before her tenth birthday and never moved again.

Lin Xi sighed softly.

The gray world in his memories melted like ice and snow, and Li Xuancheng in his childhood memories was still standing there, but there was no sunlight on his body.

Lin Xi scratched his hair with some annoyance, and then suddenly began to miss the long hair he once had. On her tenth birthday, she cut her long hair short and never let it grow longer again.

Gray memories are confusing, both in terms of timeline and logic. Lin Xi also has a clear memory, that is, the engagement was made when she was eleven years old.

Before the engagement, she had never met Li Xuancheng. It was after the engagement that she saw this big boy with sunshine all over his body for the first time.

At that time, the big boy would tell her stories, including the exploration of the star sea, battle stories, and many alien stories. Many of these were his own experiences, which made little Lin Xi very surprised and envious of the many places he had traveled to.

Then she became less repelled by the engagement. In fact, she also knows that as a child of a big family, this is the ultimate fate. Emotions are no longer the decisive factor. Faced with hundreds of years of human artificial life and physical functions that will only begin to decay after a hundred years of age, love has become extremely fragile and difficult to withstand the invasion of time.

Therefore, the big shots have long reached a consensus that only blood is the most unbreakable bond.

During that time, the big boy's visit became the only bright color in little Lin Xi's life. From then on, he entered Lin Xi's gray memory and became an indispensable part of it.

Every unbearable night, when little Lin Xi shuts herself in a gray world and cries, the big boy is the sunshine that can warm her.

Until she grew up and struggled out of the gray world.

Nowadays, Lin Xi rarely falls into the gray world in nightmares. The gray world is gradually turning into a mere memory, but this process is very, very slow, and she doesn't know how long it will take before she can get rid of the shadow of her childhood.

This memory could not be told to anyone, and she had never revealed any of it. Because she is Lin Xi, the mainstay of the new generation of the Lin family, she cannot have any shortcomings or any weakness. Just like the results in Zhige Academy, one must not slip to second place, let alone fifth place.

She sighed silently. Whether it was the past friendship or the core interests of the family, it seemed that this engagement must be fulfilled.

She thought about it again and again, but she realized more and more that she had no choice.

For some reason, she felt something strange about herself at this moment, as if something was about to break out of her cocoon. She tried hard to endure it, but she couldn't help it, so she covered her mouth to prevent herself from making a sound, but tears burst out of her eyes!

Lin Xi was panicked and didn't understand why she was crying or what she was crying about.

Is it because the big boy in my memory has lost the sunshine that once covered him?

At this moment, Chu Jungui held his luggage and walked into the room assigned to him under the guidance of an officer. His treatment this time was pretty good. He was assigned to a separate room and received the same treatment as Meng Jianghu. Qin Yi could only share a room with others.

Chu Jungui put down his luggage and opened the terminal in the room, habitually wanting to see if there was any free computing power available.

Unfortunately, there are no free ones, and there are a lot of paid ones.

The test subject felt a little disappointed and couldn't help but miss the time when he was still in the Ninth Fleet. At that time, he had almost unlimited computing power at his disposal, and he was even so luxurious that he could use the computing power to modify the formula. In other words, make the visual image projected by the formula more colorful.

The visual image of the model is like the work of a calligrapher. It doesn't matter what is written, the key is whether the calligraphy is good or not. In the same way, visual images are incredibly beautiful, but they do not help calculations.

Chu Jungui closed the terminal with deep regret. He doesn't understand. He obviously has a huge amount of computing power, why would he rather leave it idle than let him use it? It’s not like he always beautifies models.
