Upon hearing this, she ventured, âIs he doing alright?â
âUhâ¦â The actor hesitated. âIâm not sure whatâs going on with Youyou, because I donât know much about this. Professor Romanka has come up with a treatment plan for him. If it goes as expected, there shouldnât be any problems!â
âOh, I see.â She visibly relaxed. âYou have to take good care of the boy while Iâm gone, Hua Jin,â she pleaded. âOtherwise, I wonât be able to sleep at ease. I know I can trust you. You know how to take care of others.â
âDonât worry. Iâll take good care of Youyou and Natalia.â The actor assured her.
Yun Shishi was at ease. âWhen the boy comes back, tell him Iâll go and spend some time with him once Iâm well enough.â
âOkay, I will.â After he hung up, Hua Jin looked worried. Youyouâs condition was not particularly optimistic. He heard it from Romanka himself. However, at this point, he could only comfort Yun Shishi in this way. Otherwise, the bleak news about Youyou would cause her to be so anxious. sheâd make a trip. That would be too much for her to handle given her wound had yet to heal.
For now, it was best that she recuperated in peace, until such a time that she recovered from her injuries.
On the beach.
Youyou sat on the beach as the waves crashed onto the shore. Before he knew it, his toes were embedded in the fine sand.
Lisa stood by and watched him for a moment, then finally ambled over and carefully sat down a few feet away from him.
Knowing she was secretly protecting him, the boy smiled and said, âArenât you going to sit closer?â
âI thought you said ⦠you wanted to stroll quietly alone.â
âI just said I wanted a quiet stroll. I didnât say I want to sit quietly alone.â
Lisa blushed at that, and moved closer to him.
The boy stared straight ahead at the horizon. âOn this planet,â he said abruptly, â360 million square kilometers accounts for 71.8 percent of the Earthâs surface area. The sea looks endless, but in reality, itâs nothing more than a thin layer of blue covering the Earthâs surface. As a planet, the Earth isnât the largest. Sheâs just part of the solar system. Itâs so big, but itâs nothing compared to the Milky Way. The galaxy is all-encompassing, but there are so many other places beyond the Milky Way that humans canât even begin to imagine.â
Lisa listened, confused. The boy was suddenly saying things she didnât understand and she had no idea what he meant.
The boy turned to look at her and smiled. âActually, in the space of the time we use to take one breath, a few lives would have been lost. Life forms are so small in the scale of the universe.â
âUh huh.â
âTherefore, if the human race are to progress, or even surpass nature, we have to evolve. Throughout the history of human evolution, only the fittest survive. What remains can only be a powerful race. In fact, humans have no fangs, no claws, our sense of smell and hearing are not as sharp as a dogâs, and our sight is nowhere like an eagleâs. However, human beings rely on our brain to stay at the top of the food chain on this planet.â
âUh huh.â Lisa nodded silently, but still didnât know exactly what he was getting at.
