At the end of December, almost three months have passed.

It hasn't snowed yet this year, and there is an unstoppable chill in the air, dry and cold.

At around [-]:[-] in the morning, Shen Ruo walked to the place of work. He was walking on the road, and he could still see a few sparse stars when he looked up. The sky looked dark and gloomy.

He rented a house nearby. The plantation itself is on the outskirts of the city, so it is more convenient to live nearby, and relatively speaking, the rent in the suburbs is also cheap.

Turning on the optical computer, Shen Ruo looked at the list sent to him by the team leader last night. There were workers and robots loading dishes on the car, and he counted them all.

Shen Ruo, who has been working for two months, is familiar with these things, but he seems to be in a bit of a bad state these days.

"Shen Ruo, are you okay?"

The driver of the delivery truck next to him saw that Shen Ruo was absent-minded, and his face didn't look too good, so he couldn't help asking.

Shen Ruo turned to look at him, and only said, "I'm fine."

As he said that, he smiled slightly. At this time, the robot delivered another basket of vegetables, and the driver Xilong next to him also wanted to check the list. Seeing that Shen Ruo said he was fine and was no longer in a daze, he didn't say anything. They all started to get busy.

As soon as Shen Ruo got into the car, the seat belt was automatically buckled, the car started, and before the car started, there was a knock on the window.

"I accidentally bought an extra copy when I bought it, here it is for you."

Xilong's skin was dark and he was tall. He handed Shen Ruo a paper bag, his face turned red, and he left after speaking, stuffing the bag into the car without giving Shen Ruo any time to react. .

Shen Ruo was surprised, but Xilong's car drove out of the gate as soon as he got on it, and he had the illusion that he ran away in a panic because he was too shy.

Xilong is an unmarried man in this position, three or four years older than Shen Ruo. Shen Ruo sometimes hears from people who work with him that after Xilong's last girlfriend broke up with him, he never looked for him again. Stubbornly making money.

Shen Ruo could sense that one or two men here usually take good care of him, but except for things like driving and delivering goods, they would encounter them when they came back to load the goods, and the rest of the time was on the road, and there were actually not many contacts.

For their kindness, Shen Ruo could only politely say thank you, and didn't have too much conversation or contact with the other party, because he didn't have any thoughts in this regard at all, and he tried his best to do what he could do by himself, without bothering others.

And Shen Ruo's abnormality these two days was because Chu Xiao was about to leave the army.

He left Emperor Star at the beginning of October, and now it will be January, and in four days it will be January [-]st, the New Year's Day.

Shen Ruo didn't know if Chu Xiao would find him. The Duchess had said that she would hide his whereabouts for him, but Shen Ruo was always worried, especially when the time was getting closer.

Chu Xiao's temper was inherently bad, and Shen Ruo also knew that although the duchess was helping him, Chu Xiao's temper was like that. If he really wanted to find him, maybe he would be able to find him.

It was like a shadow that had been hanging over his heart for the past few days, for fear of raising his eyes by accident or seeing that grumpy man in a certain place.

Even in the dream it was Chu Xiao, staring at him viciously, grabbing his wrist and dragging him away from where he lived, no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't get rid of Chu Xiao's control.

Now looking at the breakfast bag in his hand, Shen Ruo couldn't laugh or cry, he had eaten it when he came.

Most of the driver's work is done by men. A few of them are not married, or if they get up late, they usually have something to eat on the way after delivering the earliest batch of goods, or they are not pressed for time. Buy some food from the breakfast shop on the side of the road and settle it quickly.

But Shen Ruo usually got up early, he woke up at four o'clock, and when he settled down here, he bought enough kitchen utensils for the place where he lived.

The rice was put in the rice cooker the night before, and the porridge was already cooked when he woke up. He also washed the vegetables the night before, rinsed them with water, cut them and fried them.

When the second uncle's family visited him last month, they brought him pickled side dishes from home, and sometimes two eggs were steamed on the other layer of the rice cooker, or fried eggs and fried ham, and toasted a few slices of bread.

If he doesn't drink porridge, he can warm up some milk. He has lived here alone for two months, and he has gradually started to cook. At least such a simple breakfast can be prepared in a short time.

For Xilong's kindness, Shen Ruo didn't know what to do for a moment, but he had already had breakfast, and these could only be eaten at noon.

Shen Ruo turned on the optical brain, sent a message to Xilong to say thank you, and then drove out.

The working hours here are from 5:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm, a full ten hours.

Generally, restaurants, grocery stores and supermarkets are required to be delivered before ten o'clock in the morning, or even earlier. If there is a vegetable store in the assigned task, they are basically the first batch to be delivered, because the shop owner has opened for business early.

After that, there are actually not many places to send them to, just some retail investors, and these are scattered in the city, and some places are far away, on the other side of the city.

Depending on the task, it is possible to run until one or two o'clock in the noon, and sometimes even when there is an order during non-working hours, the team leader will come back and deliver the goods if the team leader calls, but the overtime pay is not much.

If it's not three o'clock, they still have to wait in the plantation, and they can't get off work until three o'clock. At this time, the driver who finished the task sits in the studio and chats a few words.

Because I get up early and work long hours, the salary of this job is on the high side, which can be regarded as a medium level.

Shen Ruo has calculated that one month's salary is enough for him to support his living expenses and rent, although it is not much, but this is his first job outside, so let's do it first.

Because of the episode of Xilong's breakfast, Shen Ruo temporarily put aside the matter about Chu Xiao, so it's best not to get distracted while driving.

There are still four days until the New Year, and the orders from the plantation plants have increased a lot in the past few days, especially from various restaurants.

Shen Ruo's delivery didn't end until after five o'clock yesterday. It was really tiring to drive all day, so he had to gather his energy.

-

In Shen Ruo's worry, he never saw Chu Xiao.

On the day before New Year's Eve, the delivery didn't end until almost six o'clock in the afternoon. Shen Ruo drove back to the plantation plant. There was a staff dinner in the plant tonight.

Tomorrow is January [-]st, and most employees will go home to reunite with their families, so the plantation has been arranged until today.

The plant has a full range of vegetables, and a chef is specially invited to cook them. We eat and drink in the plant, and rent tables and chairs, which is much more cost-effective than going to a restaurant.

People from each department sat together, and Shen Ruo sat down with the familiar driver. After the boss spoke, there was nothing extra to do, and he started serving the food directly.

Drinking is inevitable when eating, if Shen Ruo didn't drink, he poured hot water.

Seriously eating, the chef invited was good, and Shen Ruo'an was quiet.

Smile when someone is talking to him, answer a few words, and sit there and eat obediently when no one is talking to him.

When the meal was almost finished, the factory also prepared a wave of lucky draws. There were not many expensive items, but they were enough to arouse the interest of the employees.

By the time Shen Ruo got up to leave, it was already eight o'clock.

He wasn't so lucky and didn't draw anything, but he was in a good mood sitting there watching the lively crowd.

"It's too late, I'll take you back."

Xilong, who was late before and could only sit at another table, walked up to Shen Ruo, who scratched the back of his head, looking a little embarrassed.

"Thank you, but it's only 10 minutes away, very close."

Seeing this, Shen Ruo could only smile slightly, and wanted to reject him. One reason was that the journey was short, and the other reason was that Shen Ruo didn't want to develop anything in this area now.

If he refuses earlier, nothing else will happen. Besides, what happened to Chu Xiao still makes him uneasy. After all, it has only been three months.

"It's too late, here is the suburbs, and it's winter again, you are a demihuman..."

Xilong held back for a while before finding out such a reason, because of Shen Ruo's rejection just now, he seemed a little lost.

"Let him see you off, it's winter, and the lights outside the factory are dim."

Several familiar drivers heard the conversation between Xilong and Shen Ruo, and knew that Xilong wanted to show their friendship, and they had a good relationship, so they tried to persuade Shen Ruo.

There were so many people, and Shen Ruo couldn't talk to them alone. In the end, seeing the relatively simple and honest Xilong insisting, he had no choice but to agree.

The lights outside the plantation were indeed dim. Shen Ruo and Xilong walked towards the residential area where he lived, and they were speechless for a moment.

After thinking about it, Shen Ruo still opened his mouth when he was about to arrive, wanting to make it clear to Xilong.

"Xilong." Shen Ruo stopped.

"what happened?"

Xilong was a little excited and nervous because Shen Ruo took the initiative to talk to him.

"That, I..."

It was the first time he wanted to reject someone, but Shen Ruo didn't know what to say when he opened his mouth. He had never had any troubles in this area before, maybe it was because he was young and lived in the town where he grew up together, and they were just friends.

Seeing that Xilong had been waiting for him, Shen Ruo sighed in his heart. He understood what Xilong's overture meant, so he could only refuse directly.

"You are fine, but I have no plans for this for the time being. Work is more important to me now..."

Trying to calm down his tone, Shen Ruo refused others for the first time, he didn't know if what he said was right, and whether it would embarrass Xilong.

During the brief two-month relationship, he knew that Shillong was an enthusiastic but honest person who was not very good at words.

"Sorry, I just want to tell you so I won't delay you."

Seeing that he didn't speak, Shen Ruo was extremely disturbed, so she apologized to him in a low voice.

Hearing what Shen Ruo said, Xilong was silent for a while, but he soon grinned.

"It's okay, I see, I'll take you back."

In fact, after hearing what Shen Ruo said, Xilong was not very surprised after the silence, after all, they had only known each other for two months.

Besides, he is just in the stage of making good friends now, so it is reasonable for Shen Ruo not to have feelings for him. His ex-girlfriend didn't like him at first, but later she agreed to be with him. scattered.

It is true that Shen Ruo has never expressed that kind of expression to him, and his words are polite and distant. In fact, Xilong understands.

When Shen Ruo first arrived, knowing that he was single, Shillong gradually began to think about this obedient and quiet demi-human, who was still good-looking, but tonight, Shen Ruo snuffed out his thoughts.

I have to say that Xilong was still a little sad, but seeing Shen Ruo's anxious eyes, he still chose to smile. The simple-looking man is more polite and gentlemanly. He sent Shen Ruo to the gate of the residential area, watched him enter , both of them waved to each other.

If Shen Ruo returned to the rented house, Xilong should have understood what he meant just now, and this matter can be let go.

However, he was still uneasy. Chu Xiao should have finished three months of militarized training.

-

Military base.

It was already nine o'clock in the evening when Chu Xiao returned to the lounge after a whole day of high-altitude training.

Three months of high-intensity training made him lose a lot of weight, and he grew taller again, so the boy could continue to develop.

Chu Xiao, who only wore a vest, was thin, but his smooth and strong muscles were full of explosive power. His eyes were more gloomy than before he came to the army, and he didn't talk much.

When he first came, Chu Xiao was the most famous thorn in the head, and he would not change after repeated admonitions. He was merciless when fighting with the instructor, and he had to beat the other party even if his face was stained.

Because he disobeyed orders too much, Chu Xiao was punished to fight against other people, but he was alone, and there were many people on the other side.

When he was beaten by the group, his eyes were dark and he had never been subdued. He was injured and injured. The people who hurt him were equally difficult, even more serious than him. He was once the most troublesome recruit for all the instructors. Even the residence They all changed him to a single room so that he would not hurt others after a conflict.

Chu Xiao has always wanted to leave, and in the first week after arriving here, he tried to escape.

During the training, he kept observing the surroundings, and within a few days he figured out the regularity of the changing of the guard. On the day when the training ended relatively early, he dived out at night, unloaded the guns of the soldiers guarding the guard all the way, and put them down. Many people.

When Chu Xiao was discovered, he had already run out of the camp, intercepted a military vehicle and drove towards the airport.

In the end, Chu Xiao came back after being pointed at by dozens of guns. His arm was injured. It was the instructor who fired the shot after asking Duke Chu for instructions. Otherwise, Chu Xiao would have really stolen the aircraft.

The story of escaping spread among the instructors. Some instructors who taught recruits reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance courses studied his escape route and found that Chu Xiao used it well. This troublesome negative example is applying what he has learned.

After taking off his vest and other clothes, Chu Xiao went into the bathroom.

The heat diffused in the bathroom. The bathroom was not as big as the place he used to live in, and there was no design for a drying system, but he was used to it.

He came out with only a bath towel around his waist. His body was smooth and strong, with perfect proportions. Chu Xiao wiped his hair with the towel in one hand.

Water droplets flowed down his side face, and the wet hair on his forehead looked sexy. He was handsome and handsome, and his face became deeper and more three-dimensional after losing weight.

He is undergoing some changes, showing his sharpness, the sharpness between his brows has increased, and his eyes are suppressed and dark.

And these seemingly not very good changes made him look more mature than before, and he was no longer that overly playful little girl.

The optical brain placed on the table rang, Chu Xiao walked over and sat on the chair, and then swiped the pop-up optical screen to his eyes. He unlocked the code, and there were a few photos.

Shen Ruo was walking with a man on the road, and the man sent him back to his place of residence.

And in this communication interface, there are still many photos about Shen Ruo before.

There was the scene when Xilong gave him the breakfast bag two days ago, and the scene where he was joking with the man named Luo Yi at the back door of the hotel, and there was even a city-wide route map for Shen Ruo to deliver the goods.

These are transmitted encrypted, bypassing the military system.

Chu Xiao has a lot of property left by his biological mother, and several research institutes, which were all raised with money. If he couldn't even find out a few high-level encryption channels, he would have disbanded the research institute long ago.

Still holding a towel to dry his hair in his hand, Chu Xiao sat there and punched the wall next to him with a gloomy face, almost unable to suppress the anger in his heart.

It's like this every time, as long as the photos about Shen Ruo are sent, many of them are pictures of him being with other men, even talking and laughing with other men, it seems that he is having a good time.

Attracting bees and attracting butterflies, shameless!

After only three months, Shen Ruo seduced other men outside for him.

When Shen Ruo was brought here forcibly, and Shen Ruo was not arrested as soon as he left, every time Chu Xiao looked at these photos, he almost went mad with rage.

If Shen Ruo wasn't here, he was simmering with anger in his heart, and he was always in a state of explosiveness, so he often refused to obey the discipline during training, and some violent conflicts occurred.

Chu Xiao got up and put on his clothes. He went straight to the training room without resting. After he left, the robot came in to repair the dent on the wall.

In the past few days, he has held back an evil fire again, because the time for military training has increased, and he happened to be on the list of being selected.
