Chapter 715 - You Should Take Responsibility for What You Did (2/2)
Jiang Yuning looked at her curiously and he frowned. He picked up his notepad to write something but stopped himself midway. He put his pen down and suddenly said with his sweet voice, “There can’t be living creatures on the moon. There is no water, no air and no atmosphere on the moon. With no atmosphere, the ultraviolet rays on the moon could heat the surface to over a hundred degrees on the days and drop to negative hundred degrees at night. There are all sorts of comets and asteroids cras.h.i.+ng onto the surface of the moon as well, creating the craters that characterize the appearance.”
Nian Xi was stunned. It was the second time she heard him speak so much. He had a really sweet voice. It was just a little inappropriate for him to reason with her like this after she said something so whimsical.
She didn’t need to know the facts.
Before he could tell her more about the Chinese astronauts landing on the moon, she quickly interrupted him saying, “Enough, I’m telling you about Chang’er. Shouldn’t you continue the conversation about the Jade Rabbit and Hou Yi?”
Jiang Yuning blinked and wrote, ‘Who is the Jade Rabbit and Hou Yi?’
“…”
Nian Xi was shocked. This man didn’t know about the folk tales?
She said to him, “Hou Yi is a legendary person in ancient myths, and Chang’er is his wife. She was the most beautiful woman in her time. Legend says that there were ten suns in the past and he shot down nine…”
Before she could finish, Jiang Yuning interrupted her saying, “That’s not scientific. That must be the prism effect. When a ray of light pa.s.ses through a prism, there will be a rainbow refracted, showing seven rays of light. The degree of refraction…”
“Alright, enough. I’m not interested in that.” Nian Xi was about to faint if she had to listen anymore. “I already told you these are myths and folk stories. I now know why you don’t know these stories. I would be crazy if I told you them.”
Jiang Yuning frowned sadly and wrote, ‘I’m telling you about science.’
Nian Xi sighed. “You don’t need to write when you talk about science. You speak quite fluently about it.”
Jiang Yuning was silent again.
Nian Xi said, “I think your girlfriend has to be a science maniac too. You two can discuss hypotheses and theories together. A normal woman would be driven mad by you.”
Jiang Yuning pursed his lips. He looked like he wanted to say something but he lowered his head again.
His hair was dark and thick. It reminded Nian Xi of Xiaosi. He looked like a sad puppy, just how Xiaosi looked when Nian Junting bullied it.
She sighed as someone called out to her, “Nian Xi, come out for a moment. Someone called the police and it’s a couple. The wife is saying that her husband hits her.”
Nian Xi walked out to the lobby. A couple was standing there. The woman’s face was disfigured with bruises, and the man was sitting on a chair beside her, his face bright red. Before she drew close, she could smell the alcohol on him.
“Police, he hit me! He turned me into this!” The woman burst into tears when she saw Nian Xi.
The man pounded on the desk angrily when he heard her and said, “So what if I hit you? Don’t think I didn’t see you. I saw a man sending you home!”
Nian Xi frowned and slammed the table too and scolded the man angrily as she pointed at him. “What are you slamming? This is the police station, not your home. You better watch yourself. No matter the reason behind you hitting someone, you are in the wrong for using violence in the first place…”
The man was intoxicated and agitated. He started scolding Nian Xi too. “You b*tch! You think I’m afraid of you because you’re the police? I’ve never been afraid of anyone!”
Nian Xi was furious. “I think you’re really drunk, so you will have to stay here at the station before you sober up.”
