Chapter 258: Later
"...Ah?" The small golden cube made a questioning sound, and then its small body floating in the air, emitting golden light, rotated slightly.
As if it was inspecting something, after slowly turning a circle, the light flashing on the golden cube immediately dimmed a lot.
Compared to before, his arrogance seemed to be less arrogant, and then he laughed a little awkwardly: "Hehe... I was too anxious and didn't pay attention..."
Morax didn't say much, just nodded slightly.
Yuan Zhuoyue had already sorted the things she bought into categories according to the preferences she had memorized, and put away the gifts she intended to give to others.
She kept a few small items such as wood carvings, bamboo weavings, and dolls that she particularly liked, and placed them on the TV cabinet, mixing them with the small decorations that were already on the cabinet.
After being busy for a while, Yuan Zhuoyue looked at the time on the clock again and found that it was already time for her to rest.
But in the current situation, she can't wash up and get into her bed cleanly as she used to.
I probably can only sleep with my clothes on.
Yuan Zhuoyue didn't want to go back to her room to sleep, not only because she felt a little uncomfortable wearing the shell of Morax and entering her relatively private space.
That is, when she goes out and comes home, she must change out of her outdoor clothes and wear home clothes or pajamas before entering her room.
This is because she is weak and sickly, and under the oppression of her mother, she has developed this habit over the years, so as not to bring the viruses and bacteria she has come into contact with from the outside world back into this relatively clean space.
In the beginning, you still had to take off your coat, wash your hands and change your shoes as soon as you entered the door. Now you just can't go to bed in "dirty" clothes.
The conditions that he had to abide by were no longer as strict as when he was a child, but some habits remained and continued to this day.
Although Yuan Zhuoyue bought a lot of things, it didn't take her much time to sort them out. When she returned to the living room, she just happened to hear what the little golden cube said.
Perhaps it was because he often had verbal confrontations with the little golden cube during their previous interactions, so he developed some bad habits.
Yuan Zhuoyue almost subconsciously said: "Are you anxious? You shouldn't be anxious, right? You should be enjoying watching TV, right?"
The little golden cube's body shook violently when it heard that. As if it had thought of something, it suddenly turned its square body around and looked in the direction of the TV.
Then he saw that the power light on the TV was glowing red, indicating that the TV had entered standby mode.
Before Morax and Gen Zhuoyue left and returned, the signal light there was off.
The lie was exposed, and the little golden cube laughed a few times with a bit of embarrassment, and the light on its body flickered slightly.
Like a light bulb with a problem, the hesitant voice came from the golden cube: "...I just watched for a short while after I woke up from hibernation. Although this world is full of [filth] and is very dangerous to me, there is nothing that can threaten Morax's life... I don't have to worry about his safety, so what's wrong with watching TV?"
Yuan Zhuoyue replied indifferently: "Do whatever you want. Your behavior has nothing to do with me."
It has nothing to do with you, why do you have to bring it up here?
Although the little golden cube wanted to say this when arguing with Yuan Zhuoyue as he did in the past.
But now he was the one who knew he was in the wrong and lacked confidence, and with Morax present, the little golden cube couldn't help but stop.
He didn't reply, and didn't seem to want to communicate with Yuan Zhuoyue. He just made a slightly dissatisfied nasal sound and snorted.
Such a reaction was indeed somewhat unexpected to Yuan Zhuoyue, but she was not here to cause trouble, so she did not continue to provoke this stupid little golden cube with words.
Yuan Zhuoyue lowered his eyes slightly and looked at Morax, who was now much shorter than himself because of his pale and thin body.
The tone and intonation used was a bit sarcastic, and the voice was much more serious and solemn than before.
Yue asked Morax abruptly: "...What plans do you have for me in the future?"
Morax raised his eyes and met Yuan Zhuoyue's gaze. Both pairs of extremely bright golden eyes were shining brightly under the slightly dim light.
Then Morax said, "...You still have some homework to do. Now that you have a foundation, your progress will be much faster than it was yesterday."
His voice was calm and gentle, and this slightly low tone and voice seemed to be able to soothe a tense spirit.
Morax continued, "Even so, you still need to take a good rest and replenish your energy... Otherwise, you will not be able to seriously study the knowledge I teach you when you are exhausted."
What Yuan Zhuoyue wanted to ask was not what she would need to learn in the future, but something more profound. Morax could understand what she wanted to know, but he still gave such an answer.
Yuan Zhuoyue could naturally understand that Morax was politely rejecting the questions she raised in this way.
As the saying goes, a forced melon is not sweet. For some unknown reason, Morax was unwilling to tell her what she would face in the future.
Morax could actually show such an attitude, which meant that no matter how Yuan Zhuoyue forced him, Morax would still refuse to answer, or would go around to an answer that was related to the question she raised.
What's more, Yuan Zhuoyue is quite self-aware. With her fighting power, she can't even force Morax.
Previously, when she was in an abnormal state, she was able to successfully clamp the neck of Morax, who was holding up her pale and thin shell.
This was entirely due to Morax's permission and connivance, otherwise Morax would not have been able to be suppressed by her so easily without even a hint of resistance.
What's more, since the matter now is about studying, Yuan Zhuoyue could only be obedient and nodded very submissively.
After all, the knowledge that Morax is imparting to her now may be a guarantee for her life safety at the critical moment.
Naturally, she has to face and learn in the best possible condition.
Moreover, the teaching method is still one-on-one, and the knowledge imparted is so crucial that she cannot afford to muddle through by saying "yes, yes, yes" as she did when she was in school.
Whether it was Morax, the teacher, or herself, even if it was forced, she had to teach her the knowledge that she had never understood before, or even had no foundation for.
Using the method of cramming education, everything was stuffed into her brain, and even if she didn't know how to do it, she had to remember it.
This way you will have time to slowly polish it later.
Such an educational method, of course, requires abundant energy and a clear mind in order to barely withstand such high-intensity learning.
Otherwise, it is very likely that if you are distracted for a moment, you will not be able to understand the content of the course that Morax explains later, and this terrible but real situation will happen.
After all, she bent down to pick up the pen, and then looked up to listen to the teacher, only to find that she seemed to have lost a piece of memory. Similar incidents had happened to her before.
At this moment, Morax, with her pale and thin body, raised her slender, pale, and bloodless hand again.
He extended his hand to Yuan Zhuoyue again.
His expression was still calm and peaceful, and his voice was as gentle and soft as ever: "...Now the power in your body has not yet completely subsided, so you and I still need to act like we did yesterday."
