Love at Second Sight [Interstellar]

After falling asleep again, Zhuang Yan kept hearing a voice whispering in his ear.

Zhuang Yan was a little annoyed by it, and opened his mouth to scold it, but in a daze, he returned to the platform again, this time everything was as usual, without the wall, the cloud-like gas was slowly surging, and the branches were quiet hanging there.

The voice was still chirping, quacking, Zhuang Yan said, "You're so loud."

The voice stopped abruptly, and after a while, he said cautiously: "You... are you okay?"

Zhuang Yan said: "Not good. I was almost eaten by a strange beast."

"That's just your subconscious!" The voice cried out, "You fabricated them all, including that A Xu..."

It didn't realize that Zhuang Xu was Zhuang Yan's Achilles' heel until he said it, so he quickly shut up, but he had already sensed Zhuang Yan's emotional changes, so he couldn't help but regret it.

Zhuang Yan's body tensed up, but he didn't speak.

He closes his eyes.The two branches of the tree closest to him rustled up, wanting to touch him, but knowing that he didn't like to be touched, so they tangled their "fingers".

"Actually... I was wrong too. I didn't expect that there was a 'trap' behind the sentinel's barrier...Wow! What is this!" The voice yelled, and the two branches waved.

Zhuang Yan opened his eyes, only to see a big cat appeared not far in front of him. His thick fur was reminiscent of highland snow and exposed black rocks. Under the fur, strong muscles were full of explosive power—— It was clearly Zhou Yuchen's quantum beast, the snow leopard.

"Voice" was much more excited than him, and kept waving the branch: "Why did you let it come in here! Get it out quickly!"

The snow leopard was also a little dazed when it appeared in the bushes, but it quickly sensed that these "trees" seemed unusual. It tentatively approached a tree, moved its two round ears, and sniffed. Show a curious look.

Then it licked the trunk.

The branches waving in the air froze for a second, then a higher and more broken voice sounded: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh then you rogue leopard then!"

Even though he was in the dream world, Zhuang Yan still felt that his ears were going to be deafened, and he couldn't help scolding: "It's just being licked, shut up!"

"I don't ah ah ah!" The whole bush began to rustle to express the excitement of the voice, "Get it out of here! Get out of here!"

Zhuang Yan's head hurts a bit, but the screaming and flying branches all over the place made his nerves throb even more.

It's better to go back to sleep, he thought, his vision gradually faded, and he entered the darkness again.

Opening his eyes again, he felt a warm and thick object beside him. When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the thick snow-white fur as in his dream. He was sleeping on his side, the familiar big cat lying on his back. Beside him, the two ears moved from time to time.

He exchanged a glance with its icy blue animal pupils, the snow leopard seemed a little confused, and let out a grunt in its throat, Zhuang Yan found that his arms were still on the snow leopard, and he was close to the leopard as if he was afraid of the cold, quite warm .

Snow Leopard rubbed his chin with its head.

Zhuang Yan didn't like to be in contact with people and things very much, but at this moment he stared blankly at the snow leopard for a while, then slowly withdrew his hand and sat up.

He was in a small room, covered with quilts. The walls and ceiling of the room were clean and light blue. The curtains fluttered gently, revealing the clear sky outside the window.

Zhuang Yan looked around in a daze, and suddenly his body shook. Looking at the snow leopard beside him, he remembered everything.

He lowered his head and covered his forehead for a moment.Then he lifted the quilt and got out of bed, and walked out of the room.

When the door was opened, the sound from outside leaked out immediately.

This is a small apartment-style house, which looks like a dormitory somewhere, with an area of ​​only [-] square meters. Although the sparrow is small, it has all internal organs, and the furnishings are very simple, with a kind of military style.

Zhuang Yan was looking at a set of tables and chairs in the living room when the sliding door leading to the kitchen was suddenly opened, and the man came out with two breakfasts.

"woke up?"

In fact, as soon as Zhuang Yan woke up, Zhou Yuchen sensed it through his mental body.He put the breakfast on the table, seeing Zhuang Yan's current state, he couldn't help laughing.

Professor Zhuang, who has always been rigorous and self-sufficient, probably doesn't know what he looks like at the moment. He is wearing pajamas that are about the same size but obviously fatter, his blond hair is not fixed with hairspray, and it is all loose. He looked a little dazed, like a 20-year-old young man who was a little dazed.

"This is where?"

"My dormitory." Zhou Yuchen sat down at the table. "Josh said that you would wake up after a night of sleep. It seems that he didn't lie to me."

He arranged the breakfast and said, "Over there is the bathroom."

"... Oh." Zhuang Yan couldn't accept the scene in front of him for a while. He walked into the bathroom that Zhou Yuchen mentioned. This dormitory has almost no smart facilities. Zhou Yuchen said outside: "The toothbrush and towel by the door are For you."

Zhuang Yan picked up the cup and toothbrush. After washing up, he finally got used to it. He walked out. Zhou Yuchen was sitting at the table, leaning gently on the back of the chair. Look - the newspaper machine next to it (the machine that prints news into newspapers in real time) is probably the only smart device in this house.

His eyes didn't follow Zhuang Yan all the time, it wasn't his attitude towards guests, as if this was just a casual and leisurely morning.

Zhuang Yan sat down opposite him, finished the whole breakfast without saying a word, and said, "Thank you."

Zhou Yuchen threw the newspaper into the recycling bin: "Is it still to your liking?"

Zhuang Yan said: "It's okay." In fact, his friends thought he was quite picky about his taste, and the taste of this breakfast was better than he imagined.Saying "fortunately" is a bit too impolite, and he said again: "I didn't expect the general to be able to cook."

"Just one thing, my father taught me." Zhou Yuchen looked at him and said, "Do you feel okay?"

Zhuang Yan still felt his head hurt a little, so he said "it's okay" again.

Neither of them spoke. After a while, Zhuang Yan said, "Sorry, I was too brave last night."

He knew that Zhou Yuchen had done a lot for him, so he couldn't help but said, "The ones I saw in my dream..."

"Do you mean the sea and that room?" Zhou Yuchen said, "That's my spiritual realm. My father named it 'Little World'."

Zhuang Yan was startled and said, "The spiritual realm..." Can it be concretized into that form?

Thinking about it carefully, the place where the clouds and gas condensed and surrounded by the universe he often dreamed of is also his spiritual domain?

"When I was young, I thought that everyone had such a 'small world', but when I grew up, I realized that not everyone has it." Zhou Yuchen said, "Not even sentinels and guides have it."

Zhuang Yan blurted out: "Will you let people in?" Like last night?

"No." Zhou Yuchen said, "You also know that opening the spiritual realm is tantamount to...exposing everything about yourself."

So last night was... Zhuang Yan was silent for a while, and said, "Thank you."

"It's good that you're fine." Zhou Yuchen said, "I regret it, I shouldn't have compromised with you yesterday." To Zhuang Yan, he was always unable to be as tough as he was at work and on the battlefield.

"You did nothing wrong." Zhuang Yan said, "If you don't promise me, you will offend me because of my terrible self-esteem."

Hearing him laugh at himself for the first time, Zhou Yuchen couldn't help laughing again, and looked at Zhuang Yan's pale face again: "Go back to your room and sleep again."

"No." Zhuang Yan looked at the time, "I still have class today. Besides, I still have something to tell you, some information."

"information?"

"The attempt last night." Zhuang Yan said, "I didn't get nothing."

Zhou Yuchen was a little surprised. Zhuang Yan tried his best to recall the broken scenes he saw after the sentinel's barrier collapsed, before A Xu and the strange beast appeared: "Those pirates, they disguised themselves as caravans and passed the inspection at the imperial gate. , and then arrived at the place where they were about to attack, which seemed to be in a..."

He carefully figured out the details he saw: "A place like a military factory."

The military factory is indeed a good place to hide people and weapons.

"They are only responsible for disguising and kidnapping. It is another fleet that is attacking us head-on. This fleet..." Zhuang Yan felt that his brain began to ache, but he still tried his best to catch the few flashing clips, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, "Wait, someone is speaking imperial language."

Zhou Yuchen raised his eyebrows: "Imperial dialect?"

Zhuang Yan met his gaze and said affirmatively: "Imperial dialect, but it's not a common language, it seems to be a dialect of a certain star region."

His lips moved, imitating the syllables in the clip: "su—to, ai, er—"

Zhou Yuchen's expression changed slightly, and he stood up.Zhuang Yan felt very reluctant after finishing those few syllables, and his nerves kept throbbing. He couldn't help taking a breath, and reached out to press his temples, but he noticed that the person sitting opposite got up, walked around the table and said, "I'll come Go." Immediately, a pair of hands pressed against his forehead instead of him, and massaged his acupoints.

Zhuang Yan was startled at first, but the thumb's fingertips were rough and warm, more powerful than him, transmitting the temperature, and instantly relieved the pain. He didn't remember to get up until he rubbed the other's fingers several times.However, Zhou Yuchen grasped the strength and pushed him on the seat: "Your information helped a lot, Zhuang Yan."

Zhuang Yan looked at the pair of slender and broad hands in front of him, and felt a sense of comfort in his head, but his body was so uncomfortable that he didn't notice that Zhou Yuchen called his name: "...I can do it myself, Admiral Zhou. "

"We often suffer from neuralgia, so we know how to relieve it." Zhou Yuchen looked at Zhuang Yan.

The blond man put one hand on the armrest, his body was stiff, and there was a look on his face between comfort and embarrassment. Maybe it was because of this complicated feeling, or maybe it was because the temperature of Zhou Yuchen's palm close to him was a little high. His cheekbones were slightly flushed, and when he met Zhou Yuchen's gaze, he blinked his blue eyes a little uneasily.

Zhou Yuchen's heart skipped a beat, and he wanted to bend down and kiss him.
