Far Eastern Stars
Chapter 2 Entrance Exam
The decoction prepared by the doctor was terrible, but the effect was very good. After a week, Liu Yunchen had completely recovered, and his complexion was much better than before.
The car slowly drove into the Icefield Military Academy. Since it happened to be a holiday, there were not many students, and there were white snow and black soil everywhere.
"Although I'm still as bored as before." Yi Na leaned lazily on the car seat, curled her lips and said, "Now that I think about it, the five years here are nothing short of a nightmare."
"Five years" Liu Yunchen was a little surprised.
"That's right, five years." Yi Na shrugged, "I am a graduate here, and Ming Chuan is my senior."
"Cough cough cough cough." Ming Chuan answered with a cough instead.
"As for Ares, it's rather boring." Ina stretched her hand over his shoulder, "After being expelled from the noble school in the imperial capital, she has been taught by private tutors and missed a lot of fun in life. Protection fees."
"I'll say it again, it's not expulsion, it's voluntary expulsion'" the muscular man snarled while slamming a mouthful of German sausage.
Liu Yunchen made up the scene of Ares in the noble school... Hey, it seems that it is not surprising to be expelled.
"Here we are." Ke Lei stopped the car, "Come down."
Liu Yunchen unbuckled his seat belt, opened the car door and walked out.A gust of cold wind is blowing in front of you, and even the bones are starting to feel cold, right here?"
"Otherwise?" Ke Lei handed him a broom, "Go and clean up the broom first."
Liu Yunchen took a deep breath into his palm, just thinking about working, but he was a little confused about where the runway is?"
Yi burst out laughing.
Ares moved a big rock casually, threw it on the ground, and smashed a thick layer of ice: "This is the starting point."
"You have an hour to prepare." Ke Lei glanced at his pocket watch, "The physical fitness test will start on time at ten o'clock."
Liu Yunchen nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
The snow layer is very thick, but it is not difficult to clean. It only took more than half an hour, and most of the runway has been sorted out.Looking at the back of the little girl who was getting farther and farther away in the snow, Yi Na finally couldn't help asking: "Is he really the young master of the Liuyun family?" "Otherwise why is he here?" Ke Lei raised his eyebrows.
"It seems to be different from the rumors." Yi Na rubbed her chin, "I thought that men from a financial empire are all polite and hypocritical. There are fresh roses in the room every day, and the sugar in the coffee is accurate to three." one-third."
"That's true, but he is an exception." Ke Lei glanced at Liu Yunchen.
"Why?" Ares asked.
"Because his mother is not an aristocrat, but a famous courtesan in the imperial capital." Ke Lei replied, "Later, she was taken back into the family because she was pregnant." With such a background, it is obvious that he will not receive the same treatment as other young masters.
"Liuyun Zeyu probably didn't expect that the one who was willing to come out to save the family in the end would be this neglected little son." Yi Na shook her head, "If it were me, it would be too late to gloat over others' misfortunes."
"He's very interesting." Ke Lei poured a cup of hot coffee from the car, strode over and handed it to Liu Yunchen, "Very good, you bought yourself a 5-minute break."
"Thank you." Liu Yunchen took the coffee cup and warmed his hands, his nose was a little red.
"You're very efficient," Ke Lei praised.
"Because I know how to save the most effort." Liu Yunchen took a sip of coffee carefully and added, "But I have never received military training."
"So we have to do a small test first." Ke Lei patted him on the shoulder, "Don't be nervous, after this test, I will arrange a three-month training plan for you to ensure that you can successfully complete the final exam."
"Boss!" Ares reminded loudly from the other side, "It's almost time."
"Let's start." Ke Lei took the coffee cup from his hand, "This runway has a total of 400 meters, and there are five round trips. Use your fastest speed under the premise that your body can bear it."
Liu Yunchen took off his coat and stood at the starting point to warm up.
"Come on! Cutie." Ina hugged him by the shoulders. "By the way, although there is no set time, if you go too slow, the runway will be buried in snow again. I will be happy to clean it for you, but the boss may won't agree."
Ming Chuan continued to cough crazily, and Ares was really annoyed by the noise, so he took Liu Yunchen's coat and covered his head tightly.
The storm mixed with snow particles hit the face, which hurt like a knife.In such an environment, "as long as you pause for a second, your whole body will be frozen. Liu Yunchen gritted his teeth and rushed to the finish line one after another with all his strength. Yi Na shook her head after watching it for 5 minutes: "Boss, I don't think he can pass the final exam. "
"There are still three months to prepare." Ke Lei didn't care.
"But he is completely a..." Yi Na thought about her words, and didn't know how to describe herself, "Compared with the rest of the Liuyun family, it seems that he just has more working experience. Besides, In other respects, he is still an ordinary noble young master."
"Huh..." Liu Yunchen was out of breath, and ran the last 400 meters.
"Frankly speaking, I never thought you would persevere." Ke Lei walked over.
Liu Yunchen's cheeks were flushed, but his lips turned pale: "Have I finished the test?
"Finished?" Laughter suddenly burst out behind him, and Ares's loud voice could be heard all over the playground, "You don't know, this is just a warm-up, right?"
Liu Yunchen's face instantly turned pale.
"The Icefield Military Academy has the most stringent rules in the Far East." Ke Lei also shook his head, "Even if it is an elementary test, it is not easy to pass."
"What else do we need to do?" Liu Yunchen asked.
"Follow me." Ke Lei turned around and strode into an abandoned teaching building not far away. Although it was a bit gloomy inside, at least there was no wind and snow raging.As soon as Liu Yunchen entered, he was choked by the dust and sneezed.
Ares struggled to remove a baffle, revealing the dark tunnel entrance.
"Below is the Asa Labyrinth." Corey handed him a small oil lamp, "We will wait for you at another exit."
"What time?" Liu Yunchen asked.
"Two hours." Ke Lei replied, "From the establishment of the school to the present, the fastest record holder is Ming Chuan, who took two hours and 15 minutes. But you are a math genius, so you should be faster than him."
"The bottom...cough cough cough...it's dirty." Ming Chuan reminded, covering his mouth.
"Okay, thank you." Liu Yunchen nodded, and carefully entered the labyrinth along the ladder.
There was a burst of corruption, and there were some white animal bones in the corner, which should be mice or other small animals.There is a roll of sheepskin map hanging in the space, the handwriting is almost weathered, and only the outline can be barely discerned.
A gust of wind blew from behind, Liu Yunchen wrapped his coat tightly, and walked forward slowly with the oil lamp in his hand.
Compared with ordinary mazes, this is an empty underground palace. There are vague reminders at every fork in the road, allowing the intruder to analyze which direction to choose in order to reach the end smoothly.
The paths are as dense as spider webs, Liu Yunchen felt that if he made a wrong calculation, he might be trapped here forever. As for Ke Lei, he didn't seem to be a sympathetic person, so he probably wouldn't be willing to save him.
The other exit of Asa's Mistake happens to be located in the principal's office.At this time, Ke Lei was holding a glass of wine, flipping through the newspaper beside him.
"Who is the most exciting man in the Far East Empire?
Yi Na clicked her tongue, "Boss, you are in the newspaper again, and this time you are ranked second."
"Who is number one?" Ming Chuan rarely stopped coughing.
Ares immediately raised his hand: "It's me."
Yi Na kicked him away: "It's Liu Yunji." The young master of the Liu Yun family is also Liu Yunchen's elder brother.
"Women like this kind of weak chicken and little boy." Ares dismissed it, and bent his arms to highlight his muscles.
"The face is pale, no wonder financiers are all vampires." Yi Na threw the magazine aside, "The boss type is more to my liking."
"How long has it been?" Corley asked.
"One hour, three ten minutes." Yi Na replied, "There is still the last half hour."
Ke Lei nodded, and continued flipping through the newspaper casually.
"What if he can't come out?" Yi Na was a little worried.
"He will definitely come out." Ke Lei didn't look up, but his tone was very sure.
"Okay." Yi Na spread her hands, "I wish him good luck."
With only the last 10 minutes left, Liu Yunchen stood in front of a wall, his face pale.
He found himself seemingly lost.
As time passed by, Liu Yunchen closed his eyes slightly, and quickly deduced the formula in his mind again. Combined with the maze he walked through just now, he finally found the correct exit behind the illusion.
Before he had time to think about it, Liu Yunchen ran towards the other side.The oil lamp in his hand accidentally knocked against the wall when turning a corner, and it instantly fell apart, the tunnel became pitch black, only the smell of corruption fermented wantonly in the silence, and the gust of wind whizzed by, chilling even the joints.
"The last 5 minutes are left." In the office, Yi Na looked at the quiet tunnel entrance and said regretfully, "Boss, it seems that you are going to lose the bet this time."
Ke Lei put down the newspaper in his hand: "You also said, there are still 5 minutes left."
Ares leaned against the wall and listened carefully for a long time, and finally shrugged: "Boss, it's not shameful to lose a bet once in a while."
"Mingchuan, what do you think?" Ke Lei asked.
"I would like to believe...cough cough...I believe he can come out." Ming Chuan panted, "but...cough cough cough..."
"Poor senior." Yi Na poured a glass of wine and handed it to him, "I think the boss already understands what you mean, so you don't need to finish every sentence."
Ke Lei frowned slightly, and the other three tactfully did not speak again.The second hand of the wall clock moved slowly, and the surroundings were so quiet that one could almost hear the crackling of champagne bubbles in the goblet in front of him.
With only 2 minutes left, Liu Yunchen was almost exhausted from the long-term mental calculation, physical exhaustion, and the harsh environment around him.The strong wind in the tunnel gradually decreased, the exit should be just around the next corner, Liu Yunchen gritted his teeth and continued to run forward.
A flash of light flashed before his eyes, and then there was a complaint: "It's really disgusting."
Unexpectedly, there would be someone here, Liu Yunchen was taken aback, and instinctively stopped.
"Shouldn't the next final exam be in half a year? Why would someone break in now." The voice was lazy and hoarse, reminiscent of the flirtatious mother Sang in suspenders in the red light district of the imperial capital.
"Who are you?" Liu Yunchen asked cautiously.
"Before the exam, your classmates didn't tell you about the legend of Heka?" There was a cold breath coming from the back of the neck, as if someone was gradually approaching, whispering softly in the ear.
Goosebumps appeared on Liu Yunchen's back, and the hairs on his arms stood up.
What is the... legend about greeting cards?
"Aren't you going to turn your head and look at me?" Seeing him standing still, the other party was obviously displeased.
Liu Yunchen took a deep breath and turned around.
Zhang's face smeared with thick makeup suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. His lips were as red as blood. Although the tunnel was so dark that there was almost no light source, it was still so clear that even the opponent's eyelashes could be seen clearly.
Too caught off guard, Liu Yunchen almost fainted.
"It looks familiar." Heka leaned against the wall, lazily opened a feather folding fan with his right hand, "Are you from the Liuyun family?"
"Yes." Liu Yunchen quickly considered in his heart whether he should turn around and run out immediately.
"It's really rare." Heka shook his head, "A financial family rich in bankers would be willing to send you to the Icefield Military Academy."
"This...beautiful lady." Liu Yunchen organized his words, "Can I go out? There is a time limit for the exam." "It's been a long time since I've been back to the imperial capital." Heka put away her folding fan, her upper body Rou Ruo Wu Bone leaned over, "Why don't you make a deal, I'll give you a gift, and you take me out together, how about it?"
"Ah?" Liu Yunchen froze, not daring to move.
"Take me out," Heka repeated.
"The tunnel entrance is just ahead." Liu Yunchen pointed out his finger, carefully reminding, "You can... go out by yourself."
"Little cutie." Hekara grabbed his right hand, "If the exam time is exceeded, according to the regulations of this military academy, I don't guarantee that you can get your graduation certificate smoothly."
Glancing at the luminous watch in his hand, Liu Yunchen's eyes darkened, and he dragged her forward vigorously.
"The exam time is over." In the office, Yi Na threw the empty wine bottle into the trash can, "Boss, what are your plans?"
Ke Lei stood up and walked out without saying a word.
"Why don't you wait another half an hour?" Yi Na called to stop him, "Ming Chuan and I will go pick him up."
Although it violated the regulations of the Icefield Military Academy, Liu Yunchen was not considered a student here, and if something happened to him, the Liuyun family would be troubled by it in the future, and it would be another headache.
"After being rescued, send it back to the imperial capital and hand it over to Liuyun Zeyu." Ke Lei twisted the doorknob.
Ming Chuan covered his mouth with a thick stack of tissues to ensure that no dust would be inhaled, and then reached out to open the secret passage door.
Then Liu Yunchen rushed out like a cannonball, and threw himself into his arms.
"Ah!" Ming Chuan screamed, was knocked into the arms of Ares, and almost vomited another mouthful of blood.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Liu Yunchen was also taken aback, and hurried up to support him, "I just want to knock the door open."
Ming Chuan waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.
Ares smiled happily, "Little cutie, congratulations on passing the exam."
"Boss probably doesn't think so." Yi Na shrugged.
Liu Yunchen anxiously looked at Gou Leikou at the door
"5 minutes late." Ke Lei said coldly, "Someone will take you back to the imperial capital tomorrow."
This was the expected result, a trace of disappointment flashed across Liu Yunchen's eyes, but he still nodded: "Thank you."
Ke Lei opened the door of the office, and the north wind mixed with snowflakes blew into the room. Heka grumbled while holding the hem of the blown skirt: "Dear Your Excellency General, maybe you can wait for me to come out before opening the door."
The room was quiet, and Ares looked at Heka with his mouth wide open, as if he had seen a ghost.
"I met it in the underground labyrinth." Probably feeling that the atmosphere was too awkward, Liu Yunchen took the initiative to explain.
Heka straightened her corset, her figure was surging.
"Oh! God'" Ares pushed Ina, "You are inferior."
"Shut up" Yi Na gave him a hard elbow.
"I don't think you are interested in the outside world." Ke Lei looked at her, "What's the purpose?"
"I just want to go back and have a look." Heka leaned on Liu Yunchen and blew on him softly, "How about it, since you didn't pass the exam, why don't you take me back to the imperial capital together?"
"Whether you pass the exam or not is up to me, not you." Ke Lei interrupted her.
"You want to violate the school rules of the Ice Field Military Academy for him?" Heka pinched Liu Yunchen's cheek lazily.
Liu Yunchen: "..."
"Go back to the hotel right now." Ke Lei ignored her provocation, but directly said to Liu Yunchen, "I will bring you to go through the admission procedures in three days."
YES! Ares clenched his fist hard in his heart.
"Okay." Liu Yunchen heaved a sigh of relief.
Heka winked at him: "Okay, we won't go back for now."
Liu Yunchen had to take two steps back to avoid her approaching face: "Actually, you can take the train to the imperial capital by yourself."
"I take the train? You're such a cute little thing." Hera giggled, and pressed a kiss on his forehead unexpectedly.
"Oh!" Ares showed shocked eyes again, and Yi Na and Ming Chuan were also a little surprised.
Only Ke Lei remained expressionless and continued to look at the two of them.
It seemed that the coolness had penetrated into the bone marrow, Liu Yunchen resisted the urge to wipe his forehead madly.
"Okay, it's time for me to go." Heka fiddled with her hair lazily, and walked out with her skirt in her hand. "If you need anything, you can call me at any time."
Liu Yunchen felt that he would not want to find her for anything in his life.
"You really don't know who she is?" Ina asked after Heka left.
Liu Yunchen shook his head blankly.
Ares pointed to a painting on the wall. Heka, wearing a corset and suspenders, was leaning against the door of the nightclub, her lips were brightly colored, her black high-heeled shoes were as sharp as a murder weapon, but a sharp knife was nailed to her heart.
"This..." Liu Yunchen was even more puzzled.
"Heka is a cursed undead." Ina shrugged. "It must have been dead for more than 200 years."
Liu Yunchen opened his mouth wide in a daze.
"On the first day I entered the Icefield Military Academy, I heard a lot of stories about her." Ina said, "She was originally a famous flower butterfly in the imperial capital, but for some reason, she was cursed and locked in the Asa Labyrinth forever. There are many students who take the graduation exam every year, and you are the first one who can meet her."
Thinking of the icy kiss just now, Liu Yunchen instinctively raised his hand to wipe it.
"That kiss is the bond of the dead." Yi Na opened a new bottle of champagne. "When you are in danger, Heka will sense it immediately. This is probably your reward for taking her out of the maze."
Liu Yunchen stammered: "Actually... I don't really need this reward. So can I cancel the contract?!"
"Don't worry about the cutie, it's a good thing." Ina handed him the champagne glass, comforting with a smile, "Have a glass of wine and celebrate that you passed the exam."
Liu Yunchen glanced at Ke Lei, saw that he was sitting on the sofa looking at a portrait, and didn't intend to stop him, so he took the wine glass from her hand: "Thank you."
"You should be tired too." Ina patted the dust off his shoulders for him, "Aris will send you back to the hotel to rest, see you in three days."
"But... oh!" Before he could finish speaking, Ares was stepped on again, and his eyebrows were wrinkled in pain.
"But what?" Ina looked at him coquettishly.
Ares laughed out all eight teeth quickly: "No but, I'll send the cutie back to the hotel."
The other party obviously had something to hide from him, but Liu Bingchen knew in his heart that even if he asked, he might not get an answer, so he didn't talk too much nonsense, and left the office with Ares after drinking.
"Why... ahem, cancel his other three exams?" Ming Chuan, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke.As the most rigorous military academy in the Far Eastern Empire, the content of the physical fitness test obviously goes beyond that.
"If I'm not wrong, it should be because of the appearance of Heka." Ina replied for Ke Lei, "You know, not everyone has the ability to bring the undead together to break through the curse of imprisonment, let alone let Heka take the initiative to form a bond." .”
"He doesn't look like he has supernatural powers." Ming Chuan shook his head.
"So it probably has something to do with the blood of the Liuyun family." Yi poured another glass of wine for Ke Lei, "Anyway, this is a good deal for us, isn't it boss?"
"It is forbidden to talk about this topic in the future." Ke Lei put the empty wine glass back on the table and strode out the door.
"If you don't pass...ahem...all the physical fitness tests for admission, it's hard to guarantee that you can persist in completing three months of school." Ming Chuan wrapped his windbreaker tightly, and couldn't hide his worry between his brows.In just a few days, the general has already broken many rules for Liu Yunchen, which is really not a good thing.
"Old Nature has his own ideas." Yi Na disagreed, "We just need to obey."
Looking at Ke Lei's tall back in the wind and snow, Mingchuan sighed deeply.
Hope it's really okay.
The car slowly drove into the Icefield Military Academy. Since it happened to be a holiday, there were not many students, and there were white snow and black soil everywhere.
"Although I'm still as bored as before." Yi Na leaned lazily on the car seat, curled her lips and said, "Now that I think about it, the five years here are nothing short of a nightmare."
"Five years" Liu Yunchen was a little surprised.
"That's right, five years." Yi Na shrugged, "I am a graduate here, and Ming Chuan is my senior."
"Cough cough cough cough." Ming Chuan answered with a cough instead.
"As for Ares, it's rather boring." Ina stretched her hand over his shoulder, "After being expelled from the noble school in the imperial capital, she has been taught by private tutors and missed a lot of fun in life. Protection fees."
"I'll say it again, it's not expulsion, it's voluntary expulsion'" the muscular man snarled while slamming a mouthful of German sausage.

"It looks familiar." Heka leaned against the wall, lazily opened a feather folding fan with his right hand, "Are you from the Liuyun family?"
"Yes." Liu Yunchen quickly considered in his heart whether he should turn around and run out immediately.
"It's really rare." Heka shook his head, "A financial family rich in bankers would be willing to send you to the Icefield Military Academy."
"This...beautiful lady." Liu Yunchen organized his words, "Can I go out? There is a time limit for the exam." "It's been a long time since I've been back to the imperial capital." Heka put away her folding fan, her upper body Rou Ruo Wu Bone leaned over, "Why don't you make a deal, I'll give you a gift, and you take me out together, how about it?"
"Ah?" Liu Yunchen froze, not daring to move.
"Take me out," Heka repeated.
"The tunnel entrance is just ahead." Liu Yunchen pointed out his finger, carefully reminding, "You can... go out by yourself."
"Little cutie." Hekara grabbed his right hand, "If the exam time is exceeded, according to the regulations of this military academy, I don't guarantee that you can get your graduation certificate smoothly."
Glancing at the luminous watch in his hand, Liu Yunchen's eyes darkened, and he dragged her forward vigorously.
"The exam time is over." In the office, Yi Na threw the empty wine bottle into the trash can, "Boss, what are your plans?"
Ke Lei stood up and walked out without saying a word.
"Why don't you wait another half an hour?" Yi Na called to stop him, "Ming Chuan and I will go pick him up."
Although it violated the regulations of the Icefield Military Academy, Liu Yunchen was not considered a student here, and if something happened to him, the Liuyun family would be troubled by it in the future, and it would be another headache.
"After being rescued, send it back to the imperial capital and hand it over to Liuyun Zeyu." Ke Lei twisted the doorknob.
Ming Chuan covered his mouth with a thick stack of tissues to ensure that no dust would be inhaled, and then reached out to open the secret passage door.
Then Liu Yunchen rushed out like a cannonball, and threw himself into his arms.
"Ah!" Ming Chuan screamed, was knocked into the arms of Ares, and almost vomited another mouthful of blood.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Liu Yunchen was also taken aback, and hurried up to support him, "I just want to knock the door open."
Ming Chuan waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.
Ares smiled happily, "Little cutie, congratulations on passing the exam."
"Boss probably doesn't think so." Yi Na shrugged.
Liu Yunchen anxiously looked at Gou Leikou at the door
"5 minutes late." Ke Lei said coldly, "Someone will take you back to the imperial capital tomorrow."
This was the expected result, a trace of disappointment flashed across Liu Yunchen's eyes, but he still nodded: "Thank you."
Ke Lei opened the door of the office, and the north wind mixed with snowflakes blew into the room. Heka grumbled while holding the hem of the blown skirt: "Dear Your Excellency General, maybe you can wait for me to come out before opening the door."
The room was quiet, and Ares looked at Heka with his mouth wide open, as if he had seen a ghost.
"I met it in the underground labyrinth." Probably feeling that the atmosphere was too awkward, Liu Yunchen took the initiative to explain.
Heka straightened her corset, her figure was surging.
"Oh! God'" Ares pushed Ina, "You are inferior."
"Shut up" Yi Na gave him a hard elbow.
"I don't think you are interested in the outside world." Ke Lei looked at her, "What's the purpose?"
"I just want to go back and have a look." Heka leaned on Liu Yunchen and blew on him softly, "How about it, since you didn't pass the exam, why don't you take me back to the imperial capital together?"
"Whether you pass the exam or not is up to me, not you." Ke Lei interrupted her.
"You want to violate the school rules of the Ice Field Military Academy for him?" Heka pinched Liu Yunchen's cheek lazily.
Liu Yunchen: "..."
"Go back to the hotel right now." Ke Lei ignored her provocation, but directly said to Liu Yunchen, "I will bring you to go through the admission procedures in three days."
YES! Ares clenched his fist hard in his heart.
"Okay." Liu Yunchen heaved a sigh of relief.
Heka winked at him: "Okay, we won't go back for now."
Liu Yunchen had to take two steps back to avoid her approaching face: "Actually, you can take the train to the imperial capital by yourself."
"I take the train? You're such a cute little thing." Hera giggled, and pressed a kiss on his forehead unexpectedly.
"Oh!" Ares showed shocked eyes again, and Yi Na and Ming Chuan were also a little surprised.
Only Ke Lei remained expressionless and continued to look at the two of them.
It seemed that the coolness had penetrated into the bone marrow, Liu Yunchen resisted the urge to wipe his forehead madly.
"Okay, it's time for me to go." Heka fiddled with her hair lazily, and walked out with her skirt in her hand. "If you need anything, you can call me at any time."
Liu Yunchen felt that he would not want to find her for anything in his life.
"You really don't know who she is?" Ina asked after Heka left.
Liu Yunchen shook his head blankly.
Ares pointed to a painting on the wall. Heka, wearing a corset and suspenders, was leaning against the door of the nightclub, her lips were brightly colored, her black high-heeled shoes were as sharp as a murder weapon, but a sharp knife was nailed to her heart.
"This..." Liu Yunchen was even more puzzled.
"Heka is a cursed undead." Ina shrugged. "It must have been dead for more than 200 years."
Liu Yunchen opened his mouth wide in a daze.
"On the first day I entered the Icefield Military Academy, I heard a lot of stories about her." Ina said, "She was originally a famous flower butterfly in the imperial capital, but for some reason, she was cursed and locked in the Asa Labyrinth forever. There are many students who take the graduation exam every year, and you are the first one who can meet her."
Thinking of the icy kiss just now, Liu Yunchen instinctively raised his hand to wipe it.
"That kiss is the bond of the dead." Yi Na opened a new bottle of champagne. "When you are in danger, Heka will sense it immediately. This is probably your reward for taking her out of the maze."
Liu Yunchen stammered: "Actually... I don't really need this reward. So can I cancel the contract?!"
"Don't worry about the cutie, it's a good thing." Ina handed him the champagne glass, comforting with a smile, "Have a glass of wine and celebrate that you passed the exam."
Liu Yunchen glanced at Ke Lei, saw that he was sitting on the sofa looking at a portrait, and didn't intend to stop him, so he took the wine glass from her hand: "Thank you."
"You should be tired too." Ina patted the dust off his shoulders for him, "Aris will send you back to the hotel to rest, see you in three days."
"But... oh!" Before he could finish speaking, Ares was stepped on again, and his eyebrows were wrinkled in pain.
"But what?" Ina looked at him coquettishly.
Ares laughed out all eight teeth quickly: "No but, I'll send the cutie back to the hotel."
The other party obviously had something to hide from him, but Liu Bingchen knew in his heart that even if he asked, he might not get an answer, so he didn't talk too much nonsense, and left the office with Ares after drinking.
"Why... ahem, cancel his other three exams?" Ming Chuan, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke.As the most rigorous military academy in the Far Eastern Empire, the content of the physical fitness test obviously goes beyond that.
"If I'm not wrong, it should be because of the appearance of Heka." Ina replied for Ke Lei, "You know, not everyone has the ability to bring the undead together to break through the curse of imprisonment, let alone let Heka take the initiative to form a bond." .”
"He doesn't look like he has supernatural powers." Ming Chuan shook his head.
"So it probably has something to do with the blood of the Liuyun family." Yi poured another glass of wine for Ke Lei, "Anyway, this is a good deal for us, isn't it boss?"
"It is forbidden to talk about this topic in the future." Ke Lei put the empty wine glass back on the table and strode out the door.
"If you don't pass...ahem...all the physical fitness tests for admission, it's hard to guarantee that you can persist in completing three months of school." Ming Chuan wrapped his windbreaker tightly, and couldn't hide his worry between his brows.In just a few days, the general has already broken many rules for Liu Yunchen, which is really not a good thing.
"Old Nature has his own ideas." Yi Na disagreed, "We just need to obey."
Looking at Ke Lei's tall back in the wind and snow, Mingchuan sighed deeply.
Hope it's really okay.
