You Are Deep in The Stars

Chapter 42 - A Very Pleasant and Relaxing Thing I



Meanwhile, on the other side of the world.

The waves washed over the fine white sandy beach, and the sea breeze blew in their faces, making everyone feel relaxed and happy. Daisy was laying under the umbrella, holding a cocktail in her hand, enjoying that leisurely day doing nothing.

Next to her sat a businesswoman wearing black-rimmed glasses. Even though she was at the beach, she was still wearing a neat white shirt and skirt. She had a laptop on her knees and a healthy drink: sugar jasmine tea.

This was a pair of sisters who had nothing in common. They had very different appearances, hobbies, and personalities. Gwen had no interest in her sister’s house full of Hermès and Chanel, while Daisy believed that her workaholic sister’s life was joyless. However, these differences did not affect their relationship. They still regarded each other as the closest people in the world.

“Oh!” After working for half an hour, Gwen seemed a little tired. She closed the computer, rubbed her temples with her index finger, and then said worriedly, “Han Zhuo doesn’t seem to be in a good mood.”

Daisy opened her eyes after hearing this, and she said dissatisfiedly, “He doesn’t like you secretly sensing his emotions.”

“Of course, I know, but come on, he is in love.” Gwen pushed up her glasses and found a valid reason for her rude behavior, “Aren’t you curious? About our serious and upright little beast in love? I thought it would be as sweet and sour as strawberry marshmallow.”

“But the reality?” Daisy held the cocktail.

“Well, his heart is full of clouds, which is not a good sign,” Gwen reminded. “There is no sweetness of love at all, and it seems very… sad.”

And this lingering sadness lasted until a few hours later, until Bai Xi was awakened by the morning sunshine. There was no one around him and no one was in the kitchen. Bai Xi was wearing slippers and squatting on the floor making a phone call.

“I have something to do at the moment,” Han Zhuo said while driving. “I will go home around noon. Breakfast is already prepared. Remember to heat it up before eating.”

“What is it?” Bai Xi asked. “Can you tell me?”

“Don’t worry, it’s a friend of mine,” Han Zhuo smiled. “A family disputes.”

“Okay, then you come back early at noon, and I’ll go to the company in the afternoon,” Bai Xi said. “Drive carefully.”

Han Zhuo agreed and ended the call.

Of course, he had no friends who were having family disputes, and even if he did, that was what the neighborhood committee and women’s friends should do. The car passed through the streets and alleys and stopped in front of the familiar office building again. This time Mr. Han chose the destination for teleportation, which was an exquisite two-story small western-style building.

An old gentleman was building evergreen cypress trees there when a man suddenly appeared in front of him. He was so shocked that his glasses slipped down the bridge of his nose.

“Teacher,” Han Zhuo said.

“I’m already old and it’s hard for me to withstand this kind of trick anymore,” the old man adjusted his glasses and spoke. “Next time you can choose to ring the doorbell.”

“Sorry.” Han Zhuo sat across from him. “Can I have a cup of tea?”

“Of course, but you don’t look like you came here specifically to drink tea.” The old man sat on the recliner. “A few months ago, I heard from Old Zhou that you were back. What’s the reason for this visit?”

“In order to protect a person. He is the target of the underground warehouse,” Han Zhuo said. “His physique is very special.”

The old gentleman nodded. “What about now?”

“Now,” Han Zhuo paused, as if considering his words. After a minute of silence, he said, “I still want to have a cup of tea first.”

The old gentleman smiled and nodded. “It’s up to you.”

This simple old man with white hair was named Tao Xi. He was Han Zhuo’s university teacher and one of the many superpowers hidden among ordinary humans.

The tea was this year’s newest Emei snow bud. Han Zhuo watched the tea stems rise and fall in the glass but remained silent for a long time.

“It seems that we are in big trouble.” Tao Xi took the tea cup away from him and replaced it with a bottle of iced juice. “Then don’t drink hot tea. You need this to calm down. Let me guess, what new plans does Shi Tian have?”

“It has nothing to do with the underground warehouse,” Han Zhuo denied.

“Oh?” Tao Xi was surprised. “Then who else can make you so distracted?”

“Can we really go back?” Han Zhuo asked. “Back to our own planet?”

“If we can get the support of the human government, it is theoretically feasible. Their aviation power is quite advanced.” Tao Xi nodded. “It’s just that the current representative of superpowers, I mean Shi Tian, doesn’t want to facilitate this at all. And this is an expected situation. After all, with the help of the underground warehouse, Shi Tian already has huge wealth, a prominent position, and an extensive social intelligence network. To ask him to give up all this luxury and return to a mother star with nothing is nothing more than daydreaming.”

“I have recently been in contact with another experimental institution. They have a complete set of plans. If it can be implemented smoothly, it will no longer be Shi Tian who represents superpowers to contact the human government,” Han Zhuo said. “The new representative is a paranoid hero who has a fanatical and intense dream, hoping to lead all people with special abilities back home and leave here forever.”

“That’s good.” Tao Xi’s eyes lit up. “I’m old, but there are still many new people with supernatural powers on the earth. They need homes, homes of their own. This is very meaningful.”

“It is very meaningful, and I am also actively promoting this matter.” Han Zhuo held the cold juice bottle. “But there was a little accident.”

“Tell me about it.” Tao Xi nodded to encourage him.

“I fell in love with a human being,” Han Zhuo replied. “And he is very cute.”

“A human?” Tao Xi put down the teapot in his hand. “That doesn’t sound good.”
