Chapter 178: It's a relief
Xia Xi wanted to say something but stopped.
She looked at Gu Shengnuo with her smart eyes, then at Lu Zhuo, and finally sighed softly, and smiled apologetically at Gu Shengnuo with a helpless look on her face.
Her brother is probably going to lose face this time.
Xia Xi couldn't explain why she had this idea, she just judged based on Gu Shengnuo's condition.
Although it was the first time meeting her, Xia Xi had come into contact with Gu Shengnuo's personality and temper many times on Star Internet.
Would Gu Shengnuo take the initiative to propose a bet to others without any certainty?
Xia Xi's eyes flickered. She was sure it was impossible.
Xia Li also noticed that the atmosphere was not right. He turned around and met his sister's expression full of sympathy and pity.
Xia Li: ...
He felt an inexplicable pang in his heart. He no longer had the arrogance and lack of self-awareness that he had before. Now, whenever Xia Xi made any move, he would wonder if there was something wrong with him again.
At this moment, Gu Shengnuo replied nonchalantly: "Then it is confirmed."
Then she continued to ask: "When does the preliminary round start?"
Xia Li wanted to go back on his word, but when he met Gu Shengnuo's eyes and Lu Zhuo's indifferent expression, he remained silent.
Xia Xi quickly continued, "The preliminary round will take a few days. Let's add each other as friends. I'll tell you when the time comes."
"By the way, Nuonuo, I have nothing to do right now, do you want to take a tour?"
Xia Xi pushed the wooden Xia Li aside and looked at Gu Shengnuo cautiously, asking for her opinion.
Lu Zhuo lowered his eyes to look at her and frowned slightly.
Xia Xi held her face in a tense manner and silently took a step back, keeping a distance from Gu Shengnuo.
Gu Shengnuo was very interested. She locked onto Xia Xi with shining eyes and said, "Sure, will you show us around?"
Xia Xi was about to answer when Xia Li suddenly joined the conversation and said without any emotional intelligence: "You can visit, but you need to bring our archaeologists with you."
Gu Shengnuo pulled the corner of his mouth.
She has deeply experienced the embodiment of what it means to be "annoying".
Xia Xi covered her chest and closed her eyes as her vision went dark. She turned her face away and glared at Xia Li, "Brother, can you please let me talk about this? I can talk to Nuonuo about this myself."
If you say it out loud, even the most legitimate requests will become distorted! !
Don't you listen to what you are saying?
Xia Xi took a deep breath, and while Xia Li was confused, he explained to Gu Shengnuo and the others as quickly as possible: "It's like this, the special nature of the remote planet No. 1 means that some areas of it are more in need of protection."
"In some places we have found plants or products that archaeologists are not sure what they are."
"And in many places, it would be boring to visit without them, because I don't understand much. So I will bring some professionals with me."
Gu Shengnuo quickly concluded that they needed to bring a tour guide with them.
There's no problem with her.
Gu Shengnuo nodded, "It's nothing."
When Xia Xi heard Gu Shengnuo's answer, her expression visibly relaxed, and she immediately made arrangements.
Xia Li silently watched his sister arrange everything, with a sense of pride in his chest. He now knew his own problems. This kind of personality problem was fine for internal people, as people who knew him knew that he was just sick. But in socializing with the outside world, he would be seriously misunderstood, wondering if he was deliberately targeting someone.
Xia Li really didn’t.
He had this idea at first, but now he has lost it.
Xia Li suddenly recalled Gu Shengnuo's comment about him, saying that he, Xia Li, was lucky to have a good sister.
Xia Li looked at Xia Xi tenderly. Yes, he also felt that he was very lucky to have such a good sister.
Therefore, the people on the main star deserve to die even more.
After finally figuring out what he should do and the importance of Gu Shengnuo, Xia Li was silent for a long time, so long that when the archaeologist came, Xia Xi looked at him frequently with some concern.
But Xia Li's mouth seemed to be glued shut, and he kept pursing his lips without saying a word.
Gu Shengnuo raised his eyebrows slightly, and his impression of Xia Li changed a little.
Lu Zhuo keenly noticed the slight change in Gu Shengnuo's attitude and was a little surprised.
Xia Li'an was separated for a long time and didn't cause any trouble along the way, but what Xia Xi didn't expect was that Xia Li became obedient. She was an archaeologist who had made a lot of boasts, and they all looked down on others.
There was no reaction at first.
When Xia Xi led Gu Shengnuo and the others to the central area of the main city, Gu Shengnuo observed the surrounding rental buildings for several times, with nostalgia in her eyes. She asked directly: "Are the structures of these houses modified according to the original buildings of Remote Star No. 1?"
It's so Earth-like.
Gu Shengnuo added silently in his heart.
Xia Xi was overjoyed to see Gu Shengnuo was interested in their main city's architecture. Just as she was about to answer, an archaeologist asked inexplicably, "The original architecture of Remote Planet No. 1? This is something we spent a lot of effort to come up with. It has a unique architectural style and has nothing to do with the original architecture of this planet."
There was a bit of disdain in his words, which showed that they looked down upon the original planetary architecture.
Xia Xi paused, feeling that what he said was a little off the mark, and added: "We gave the main city buildings to a team of archaeologists to design, and then sent people to build them."
Xia Xi caught a glimpse of Gu Shengnuo's expression and saw that it had faded. She knew that the scholar's way of speaking displeased her.
Xia Xi rubbed his temple. This was really difficult to deal with. Archaeologists were very important to Remote Star No. 1. They needed this team. With them, Remote Star No. 1 would get better and better.
But today, Xia Xi discovered that the scholar's arrogant words and deeds were not isolated cases. She could intuitively feel that the attitudes of that group of scholars were all arrogant, without exception.
This is a bit tricky.
Xia Xi was still worried, but Gu Shengnuo had already taken Lu Zhuo's hand and walked towards a building nearby. "Really? You archaeologists are so amazing, and you have knowledge related to ancient earth architecture?"
"This building was designed exclusively by you, so why do we have the same house structure?" Gu Shengnuo looked at the house for a while, then turned around and raised his chin towards the team with a smile, "Why, your team also designed our house?"
Xia Xi was stunned.
The archaeologists' faces all turned red.
"The house structure here is similar to that here, and we just made some simple modifications." Lu Zhuo seemed to be explaining to Gu Shengnuo, but in fact he was helping Gu Shengnuo to complete her words.
Xia Li knew what was going on as soon as he heard it, and glared at the group of scholars fiercely, "I didn't raise you to do these nonsense. You have to pretend to be cool without any ability!"
Gu Shengnuo thought to himself: When we are on the same side, Xia Li’s temper makes him feel relieved when he scolds people.
