What is a perfect self-introduction? The one Cen Zhen gave just now is the perfect self-introduction in Lian Yu’s eyes. The phrase “Lian Yu’s Guide” easily made the Sentinel feel comfortable from heart to body.
Lian Yu did not turn to look at Cen Zhen, nor did he say something, but the lifted corners of his lips and the ripples in his spiritual link that had not stopped for a long time all announced his good mood.
Jiu took off his snow-white gloves and stretched out his hand to Cen Zhen, “Nice to meet you.”
While they shook hands, En Fei also gave Lian Yu a big hug and said happily, “Mr. Lian Yu, meet you again!”
He spoke in a strange and slow tone, and Cen Zhen remembered the language barrier between them. It seems that His Highness Jiu’s aristocratic education is more complete, while En Fei is a poor student who loves to skip classes.
Lian Yu raised his hand and patted his back, “En Fei, you got fatter compared to when I first met you. It seems that you have lived a good life these days.”
“Yes, life is the best now, no better life there is.” En Fei couldn’t help looking back at Jiu. He spoke foreign languages incoherently, but he had a strong desire to communicate. “At night, from I woke up my dream and saw Xiao-Jiu’s sleeping face. I couldn’t imagine, for our love, he was willing to give up his identity, reputation, money, status, all, everything, just like me.”
Jiu listened to the chaotic grammar and frowned tightly. It should have been a time for him to feel moved, but his mind was full of sending En Fei back to school for retraining. Lian Yu couldn’t help but complain internally: Isn’t that right? In the last life, you only knew these things after seeing his suicide note and cried hysterically.
“One I want thank the most to is you, Mr. Lian Yu!” En Fei was very excited, and his thin wings spread high with the ups and downs of his emotions, “Except Xiao-Jiu, I give you everything I have, I am willing.”
The Zerg are generally tall. The two people in front of him are only the most common height of the Zerg, both are about two meters tall. With the wings, En Fei almost wrapped Lian Yu up. The latter reluctantly took two steps toward Cen Zhen to avoid this unbearable enthusiasm, “It’s enough as long as you can just stay away from me.”
“……”
After only a minute of greetings, Jiu got back to the point and invited Cen Zhen and Lian Yu to enter the spacecraft, “Lava Star is in the LinJie Star System, and it is four days away from the Special Star. It’s best if we set off as soon as possible.
By the way, the temperature on Lava Star is scorching, and supplies are scarce. I wonder if you two have prepared your clothes?”
It is often said that if two people travel together, the best combination is one responsible for all-around planning of food, accommodation, and transportation, and the other just follows like an idiot. This time, Cen Zhen’s role was the idiot. He didn’t even know the destination was Lava Star until the last second, let alone preparing clothes.
“I’m prepared.” Lian Yu walked behind Cen Zhen, not sure since when. He had just accompanied En Fei to check the ship door. At this moment, he took off his coat in the warm spaceship, casually put the clothes on Cen Zhen’s shoulders, and followed Jiu into the cockpit. “Mr. Cen Zhen, tea.” En Fei was busy and invited Cen Zhen into the living cabin. First, he hung up the coats for the two and served tea and snacks. He was enthusiastic and did his best to be a host without the airs of a former young master of the Duke’s. “A specialty of Crescent Star, this is. Raw materials on that planet only. Do you know Crescent Star? Now the place Xiao-Jiu and I live it is.”
It turns out that the order of words in a sentence does not affect comprehension at all. En Fei’s word placement is scattered, but because the vocabulary was all correct, Cen Zhen strangely understood every sentence he said.
But this does not mean it’s not tiring to keep communicating like this, especially in Cen Zhen’s poorest field of skills; holding a conversation. He tried to use silence to make En Fei give up the idea of having an one-on-one conversation with him. Ten minutes later, Cen Zhen found miserably that En Fei only needed him to say “um” to continue talking by himself.
“Your Sentinel Guide, um… animal spirit body?” En Fei suddenly asked with bright eyes, “Can see it, me?”
Cen Zhen looked up at En Fei for this question. Non-Sentinel/Guides cannot see the spiritual body. He thought it was common sense, not to mention that En Fei could even speak the language of the Special Star, how could he not know?
En Fei saw Cen Zhen suddenly look up at him, instantly showing a regretful and nervous expression. He immediately apologized, “Sor…”
“You all can’t see it.” The spaceship is now at its most bumpy time. Cen Zhen put down the shaking teacup and fastened his seat belt. “Actually, I let it out as soon as I got on the ship.”
“Where!” En Fei turned his head and looked around. Cen Zhen pointed to his leg, where a huge black and white snow leopard was walking around unhappily because the turbulence of the spaceship disturbed its sleep. Next to it stood Lian Yu’s lion. It had accompanied his master to fight all around the universe for many years, which naturally had no discomfort riding the spaceship.
En Fei’s eyes widened, but no matter how he looked, he still couldn’t see anything. He said disappointedly: “It seems not wrong what you said… What is that spirit body, tell me can you?”
“Snow leopard.” Cen Zhen didn’t know if there was such a creature in the native Zerg ecosystem. He opened the terminal and searched for pictures of snow leopards to show En Fei, “Mine is a little bigger than this, and its eyes are also this blue.”
En Fei was pleased, “Although I can’t see it, imagine very beautiful that it must be I can.” After praising the snow leopard, En Fei smiled and praised Cen Zhen: “Cen Zhen, you are so nice.”
That’s all it takes? Cen Zhen raised his eyebrows. Before he could say anything, En Fei sighed, “Just now I said I shouldn’t said something. I thought I made you angry. Before, spirit body, to Mr. Lian Yu I asked, he was very upset.”
Cen Zhen sorted out the timeline. The ‘before’ mentioned by En Fei must be when Lian Yu went to the Zerg Star to break into the prison. He asked Lian Yu’s spiritual body at that time? It was all because of his good deeds in his previous life that Lian Yu didn’t put En Fei back in prison.
“You can ask him now, ask what his spiritual body is.” Cen Zhen pointed to the cockpit, trying to persuade En Fei to spend his endless energy on others, “He won’t be angry.”
“Really?” En Fei fell for it. His good impression of Cen Zhen was based on his trust for Lian Yu nonetheless, so naturally, he was much more curious about Lian Yu than Cen Zhen.
Cen Zhen nodded and smiled sincerely.
The turbulence subsided, and En Fei rushed into the cockpit in one step. Cen Zhen followed slowly, and heard two sighs from inside the door, and Jiu’s whispered complaint, “I thought I could have more quiet time.”
En Fei immediately didn’t bother to ask Lian Yu’s spiritual body and started arguing with Jiu in their native language.
Lian Yu sat in the co-pilot seat, without looking back, he raised his left hand and touched Cen Zhen’s clothes at the exact moment when Cen Zhen stood behind his chair, “What are you doing here?”
“Are you not happy that I came here?”
“A little.” Lian Yu raised his head and smiled, “I’m afraid you will lower our driving capability if you get close.”
That’s just inconsiderate.
After two o’clock in the morning, the spacecraft finally entered the correct driving track. Jiu turned on the autopilot function and yawned tiredly. If nothing unexpected happens, they will not need to enter the cockpit again for the next three days except for the necessary inspections.
En Fei had long been so sleepy that he fell asleep on the table in the living cabin. He woke up slowly when Jiu horizontally picked him up. He drowsily hooked his arms around Jiu’s neck and kissed him passionately. After the kiss, En Fei still didn’t seem very sober. He whispered something, which somehow made Jiu laugh.
Seeing Lian Yu coming out, Cen Zhen quickly tidied up all the floating windows in front of him. Due to Zhou Qingchang’s inexplicable, ‘How could Qu know that you are going on a long journey, but I, your teacher know nothing about it’, urge to compete with others, he gave Cen Zhen extra homework today for the first time. The amount was so large that Cen Zhen hasn’t finished it yet. “Didn’t I tell you not to wait for me?” Lian Yu untied his hairband, and Cen Zhen handed him a cup of hot milk, which he drank in one gulp. “If I didn’t wait, you’ll probably cry.”
“In three lives, I’ve only cried…”
“So once?”
“…Okay, I cried a few times in my first life.”
Their room was on the inside side of Jiu and En Fei’s room. When they passed by, the automatic door of the outer room hadn’t been completely closed. The messy clothes on the floor and some tempting sounds inevitably broke into their eyes and ears.
It seems that these two are not sleepy enough.
Cen Zhen thought that Lian Yu would take the opportunity to tease him a few words, and even prepared to be taken advantage of, but unexpectedly, Lian Yu passed by without looking sideways, opened the door of their room, and walked in.
“…” Cen Zhen hesitated outside the door for a while, then suddenly realized that Lian Yu always kept a certain distance from him today, which was not alienated, but the usual physical contact was almost zero.
Before they marked, his body seemed to have a great attraction to Lian Yu, not to mention after they marked, Lian Yu always stuck to him, either hugging his arm or his shoulder, playing with his fingers even when sitting still, wishing to melt the two of them together.
“You go shower first, I’ll sit for a while.” Lian Yu unbuttoned his shirt, clicked on his private secret account in the terminal, and browsed the unread messages, all of which were in an incomprehensible language. Cen Zhen slightly narrowed his eyes, confirming that something was wrong. Lian Yu never said that he should take a shower first. He would always only say: Take a shower together?
Although the outcome was always to take showers separately, Lian Yu’s sudden change made Cen Zhen uneasy.
He closed his eyes and stood under the shower, thinking habits are truly daunting, and playing hard to get was also a scary strategy.
Cen Zhen didn’t think Lian Yu was deliberately playing hard to get, trying to make him take the initiative or something, which was unnecessary and too boring. Similarly, he didn’t think Lian Yu was no longer interested in him.
But because of this, Cen Zhen found the situation even more difficult. After common sense was ruled out, what remained were reasons for not playing by the rules, which were even more complicated to understand.
Lian Yu was indeed a person who could not be explained by common sense.
Cen Zhen showered for half an hour, pondered for half an hour, and finally opened the bathroom door expressionlessly when Lian Yu called out, “Did you die in the bathroom?”
Lian Yu was first forced to step back by the steam that hit him, and then he saw Cen Zhen walking out with only a short bath towel around him.
