stop fighting

Oh, you mean that pot of mush? "

Lu Ze was about to go crazy: "It's muddled? How is it possible? I clearly set the heat preservation mode!"

Ling Qian touched his nose unnaturally: "...maybe... I didn't pay attention when I woke up in the morning..." Then he changed his style and said confidently: "If you didn't tell me in advance, how would I know it was What!"

Lu Ze: "..."

The adjutant on the side had already noticed his redundancy, and smiled awkwardly and politely before smearing oil on the soles of his feet.

Lu Ze sighed and grabbed Ling Qian's wrist: "There should be food in the cafeteria at this point, I'll take you to eat."

Ling Qian's eyes faltered for a second, and without saying anything, he followed Lu Ze and walked towards the cafeteria.

Lu Ze's heart had long been filled with doubts, but he also understood Ling Qian - but if this person didn't want to say anything, it was useless for him to ask.

Lu Ze didn't ask any questions until after eating in the cafeteria.On the other hand, Ling Qian didn't get up in a hurry after eating. After moving his eyes, he said, "Actually... I came here to find you today."

Lu Ze had an expression that he had expected a long time ago, with a smirk in the corner of his eyes: "Finally made up your mind?"

Ling Qian was stunned for half a second, then became angry from embarrassment: "Have you read the schedule?"

Lu Ze raised his eyebrows: "As your legal partner, what's wrong with Tang Qing showing me your medical examination report and follow-up recovery plan?"

Ling Qian: "..."

Lu Ze moved closer to him: "Still...you don't want me to be your instructor, huh?"

Ling Qian's ears were visibly red, and he coughed: "It's nothing."

"Then what are you fussing about?"

Ling Qian glared at him for a few seconds, then sighed: "Forget it, it's already settled anyway. Then—when shall we start, Instructor Lu?"

There was a smile in the corner of his eyes, with a hint of provocation.

Lu Ze stared at him for a while, then laughed: "You can't wait?"

Ling Qian muttered something, but Lu Ze didn't hear it clearly, but he didn't care too much, he stood up and rubbed Ling Qian's head: "Let's go, I'll take you to the training center first."

The two had just walked out of the gate of the cafeteria at the base when a sharp siren blasted through the sky above their heads.

Lu Ze's expression immediately changed. He grabbed Ling Qian's arm and tossed him a key: "It's just the key to my office. Go and stay there. Don't go anywhere until I come back."

Ling Qian took the key, but did not comment on the second half of his order.

Lu Ze had already taken a step outside, but suddenly remembered this person's usual bad temper, and abruptly turned his steps back, with a bit of threat in his tone: "If I find out that you don't obey and run around obediently, in the next month Don't even think about getting out of Tang Qing's rehabilitation center."

Ling Qian: "..."

Lu Ze was still staring at him and waiting for his reply, Ling Qian had no choice but to sigh: "I promise to stay in your office and not go anywhere until you come back."

Only then was Lu Ze satisfied: "Hey, wait for me to reward you when I come back."

Seeing that he was about to turn around and leave, Ling Qian grabbed his wrist——

Lu Ze: "?"

Ling Qian pulled his collar and took a gentle bite on his chin: "If I find out that you are injured...well, you know."

His tone was completely different from this charming action, and there was also a trace of imperceptible tension.

Lu Ze smiled: "I know, let's go."

Ling Qian stood in place and watched his back running all the way away, then slowly turned and walked towards his office.

Since the establishment of the entire base in Nassar City, although different alert levels have been set up for safety reasons, this is the first time that this voice has sounded over Nassar City. Its meaning is also very simple and clear——

Unknown biological infection body invaded.

When Lu Ze arrived at the gate, three reorganized teams were already waiting in line.On the far left is the external defense team led by Chen Xin. It is mainly responsible for the daily defense around Nazar City. A considerable part of the team is infected with the serum developed by Tang Qing's team—just like Chen Xin.Although they are gradually integrating into this rebuilding society, it will take some time for them to be fully accepted by ordinary people.

In the middle is the first mobile team led by Fang Lulian, which is mainly responsible for the daily security of the main urban area, and next to it is the second mobile team led by a man named Scott, mainly to deal with some temporary emergencies.

Lu Ze's eyes swept over the three captains one by one, and quickly assigned tasks: Chen Xin's team went out of the city to conduct reconnaissance; A temporary refuge camp in the central square; the second mobile team is on standby, ready to enter the battlefield at any time.

Everyone moved quickly and methodically. When Chen Xin passed by Fang Lulian, he gave her a reassuring look. Zheng Guanqi, who followed in his team, also blinked at Fang Lulian.

When Fang Luxian had just split up the team and was about to leave with the last team, Lu Ze stopped her and said in a low voice: "We must check whether there are infected people in the city, but don't cause a large area of ​​panic. .”

Fang Luxian understood what he meant when his eyes met. After so many things, she was no longer the little girl who still needed the protection of her teammates. There was no need for Lu Ze to say anything more. She moved very lightly. Nodded, with an unquestionable firmness.

Lu Ze patted her on the shoulder: "Keep the radio on."

After speaking, he also went in the direction where Chen Xin and the others left the city.

The author has something to say:

Quiet Mimi's updated chapter~

invasion (2)

On the way to the city gate, Lu Ze saw Wei Junting, who obviously knew what this level of alarm meant, and was rushing towards the refuge camp in the center of the city.The moment the two cars passed each other, he saw something extremely heavy in Wei Junting's eyes.

Wei Junting didn't say anything, but simply nodded to Lu Ze.

With him sitting in the city, the resistance on Fang Lujian's end would be relatively small.

Because it is still in the initial stage of reconstruction, Nassar City only retains one entrance and exit passageway, which is guarded by soldiers on daily patrol and people from the Biological Research Institute. Residents entering the city must undergo epidemic prevention inspections at the quarantine station at the city gate. will let go.

The intrusion alarm is triggered from the city gate.At present, apart from the patrol team, the people from the Institute of Biology and the residents who were under quarantine at that time have been isolated in a fire station near the city gate. Chen Xin and the others have taken over the entire city gate.

When Lu Ze boarded the outer wall of the city gate, Chen Xin's team had already formed a tactical formation. Besides their own people, there was another team there——

lindsay.

Since this period of time, Lindsay has actually been assisting Wei Junting more as a security coordinator in the city. After all, she was considered the leader of one party in the old city before, but she appeared here at this time...

Lu Ze frowned, and walked over: "Is there any change in the city?"

Lindsay looked back at him, with a anxious expression on his face: "Miao Miao is missing."

Lu Ze's face changed: "What's going on?"

"I'm not very clear about the specific situation. The people below said that she ran out secretly, but I don't think Miu Miao is such an insignificant child."

"Does Boss Wei know?"

Lindsay shook his head: "I haven't had time to tell him. Miu Miu disappeared this morning. I took a team of 6 people out to look for it. The search range only covered 10 kilometers outside. I heard the alarm in the city before I found anyone. , and we're coming back."

On the other side, Chen Xin also came over, with a cold expression on his face: "Captain, two unknown infected bodies were killed just now, and no other abnormalities have been found so far."

Lu Ze frowned. Logically, it could trigger the intrusion alarm system in the city, and the other party was definitely more than just two infected bodies.No matter how much the city defense patrols made a fuss, they wouldn't be able to kill single-digit infected bodies.What's more, these soldiers were all trained by Lu Ze himself.

He turned to Lindsay: "I will pay attention to Miu Miu's side. The situation in the city is unclear now. You take your people to meet Boss Wei and the others first, and leave this place to us."

Lindsay knew that she was still waiting for her at the refuge camp, so she didn't show any courtesy to Lu Ze. After nodding, she turned around and left with her people.

Lu Ze took the binoculars on the side and looked towards the post road outside the city. Under the bright sunlight, there was nothing on the road, not to mention people, not even a bird.

He put down the binoculars, ordered 4 people from Chen Xin's team, and said to Chen Xin: "Continue to be vigilant, I will take people down to have a look."

Chen Xin immediately guessed what Lu Ze was thinking through the tacit understanding developed through years of missions. He lowered his voice: "Have you mixed in?"

Lu Ze frowned tightly: "This possibility cannot be ruled out."

Chen Xin looked at the people he clicked out: "Will the 4 people...?"

Lu Ze shook his head: "It's not sure yet. Too many people may cause panic. As long as the situation can be controlled, 4 people are enough. The city gate will be handed over to you. No one can enter or leave until the source of the alarm is found out. "

Chen Xin looked solemn, nodded and saluted Lu Ze.

The four people brought by Lu Ze made no noise, they cated down the city wall and entered the fire station 4 meters away.

Before the apocalypse, this place was originally a training base for the fire squadron. Since the reconstruction, Wei Junting and the others have simply used the original equipment here to change it into a place similar to a city defense transfer station, where the city defense patrol team changes shifts.

At this moment, the last patrol team surrounded the entire building tightly, and the leading sub-captain saw Lu Ze approaching, and saluted with his heels together.

Lu Ze waved his hand at him, and raised his chin towards the gate of the fire station: "About how many people are there?"

The team leader stood up straight: "Report! After the alarm sounded, we gathered all the quarantined medical staff and residents who were going to enter the city. There were about 20 of them. According to our preliminary observation, no one inside showed signs of infection. Symptoms of the patient, no one came in or out after receiving the blockade order."

Lu Ze nodded: "Very well, I'll take someone in to have a look."

The interior space on the first floor of the fire station is not too big, and they only used the lobby on the first floor.

When Lu Ze and the others walked in, there was an eerie silence in the whole space. The 20 people were either sitting or standing, and no one was with others, and no one spoke.

When the two people in white coats near the door saw Lu Ze and the others, their faces were obviously relieved. One of them stepped forward, his eyes stayed behind Lu Ze for a second, and he said: " Are you from the military?"

Lu Ze nodded: "What's going on here?"

"My colleagues and I have taken samples from everyone here and tested them. No one is carrying an unknown infection. When can we leave?"

Lu Ze narrowed his eyes calmly: "Now the whole city is under emergency martial law. Even if you go out, you can only go to the refuge camp. Just stay here. Food and water will be rationed."

The other party seemed to hesitate to speak, and finally pointed to a figure in the corner of the room: "If I can't leave, can I apply for some antibiotics? That person has a fever."

As soon as he finished speaking, an open space was immediately cleared within 3 meters around the person in the corner.

Lu Ze: "..."

The man was sitting on a chair, wearing a shabby cloak, with his back facing Lu Zhe's direction, and seemed oblivious to the movement around him.

The muscles in Lu Ze's shoulders and back tensed. He signaled the four people behind him to stay alert while he walked towards the figure step by step.

When he walked half a meter behind the man, the man seemed to have finally noticed his footsteps. He turned slightly, revealing half of his face under the hood of the cloak, and smiled slightly at Lu Ze. Smile: "Long time no see, Captain Lu."

Lu Ze's eyebrows twitched suddenly, and he recognized that face.

At the same time, in a room at the end of the second floor of the office building of the training base, Ling Qian stood in front of the window, his gaze fell on the training ground below——

Suddenly a slight beep sounded in the silent space, it was his communicator.

Seeing a string of unknown numbers flashing on the square screen, he frowned slightly, and he paused for a few seconds before pressing the answer button.

He didn't speak at first, and after hearing a few words from the other party, he said softly: "I see."

The other party said something else, and the expression on Ling Qian's face turned cold: "I told you at the very beginning that transactions are possible, but only on my terms and methods. Threats? You'd better see if you have Not that capable."

After a pause, the expression in his eyes became completely cold: "You can try."

After that, he hung up the communication directly, stood there for a while, and then turned around and strode out of Lu Ze's office.

invasion (3)

The look on the face of the doctor behind Lu Ze was obviously stunned, and he looked at Lu Ze dully: "You...know each other?"

Lu Ze took a breath, feeling a sense of uneasiness in his heart, and turned to look at the doctor: "I want to talk to him alone."

The doctor seemed relieved: "We are still unable to confirm his identity. Although he has a fever, he has been given a blood sample before. If the alarm is not triggered, he should be taken to the isolation center for observation 1 God. In the current situation... Although the probability of him being infected is not high, you'd better be careful."

Lu Ze nodded: "Understood, thank you."

Seeing that the doctor and nurse walked a few meters away, and there was no one else around them, Lu Ze's expression became serious: "I thought you had already left, Jude."

Jude smiled, but didn't answer right away. He glanced behind the group of people brought by Lu Ze, and asked, "Is watching chess okay?"

Lu Ze simply pulled a chair from the side and sat down: "Since you want to see him, why don't you go to the city openly?"

Jude shook his head: "Captain Lu, you know that I have something I must do. I was escaped by Lipsey outside Nassar last time. I didn't catch up because I had more important and urgent matters. Now that the things around me are done, I have also fulfilled the promise I made with General Shen, and it is time to do my own thing."

Lu Ze narrowed his eyes: "Did you find him?"

"To some extent, I found it." Jude's face also became serious: "To some extent, this is also the reason why I came here this time."

Lu Ze didn't speak for a while, and his eyes became gloomy: "They originally belonged to the Second Alliance, and now they have signed an agreement with the infected people. On the surface, both parties are safe and sound, and they have indeed abided by the terms of the agreement. Request. So, what did you find?"

"It took me a while to go back, and I didn't get much information, but as far as I know, the Second Alliance has not been peaceful recently. There should be some internal strife among their senior management. Lipsey brought a few of his The subordinate left the capital two days ago, and he was heading this way.

"He is very vigilant, I dare not follow too closely, yesterday afternoon they arrived at a satellite city about 200 kilometers away from here, Lipsey stayed in the city, about 3 of his men left this morning , I followed those three people all the way, and finally entered Nazar." Jude's voice was a little heavy.

Lu Ze's face turned extremely ugly in an instant. As he said, although the Second Alliance has signed an agreement with them, the two sides are clearly a cooperative relationship. They provide each other with serum, and the other side recognizes their existence as an independent city-state.

But judging from Jude's words, it was obvious that some people in the other party's senior management did not intend to abide by such an agreement.

"Those three men entered Nazar before you?"

Jude nodded.

Lu Ze tapped on the table with his finger: "The triggering of the alarm at the city gate...do you know what's going on?"

Jude frowned and shook his head: "As far as I know, the same group of people who came here with me," he turned his head and looked around: "There is nothing unusual."

"Then what's the matter with your fever?" Lu Ze's eyes suddenly became sharp.

Jude paused, and a smile slowly appeared on his face: "Is Captain Lu suspicious of me?"

Lu Ze's eyes didn't move: "Jude, it's a fateful friendship that we've come this way, do you think you have something worthy of my suspicion?"

Jude stared at him for a few seconds, and let out a sigh of relief: "I'm not sure about the others, but someone inside you must have reached some kind of deal with Lipsey. This morning I saw The little girl who is together, if I remember correctly, her name is Miu Miu?"

Lu Ze's pupils suddenly tightened.

After Ling Qian left Lu Ze's office, he didn't go in and out through the gate, but went directly to the cafeteria.He seemed to be very familiar with this area, bypassing the special passage for supply vehicles behind the cafeteria, swaggering out from the small door.

After walking out of the training base, he looked back at the direction he left, his eyes became a little complicated, he seemed to hesitate for a second, then turned his head and strode towards the research institute.

Tang Qing was already there when he arrived at the door.

Seeing Ling Qian, she breathed a sigh of relief, and went forward: "Is everything okay over there?"

Ling Qian nodded: "It's okay, I just met Lu Ze."

Tang Qing frowned: "He didn't suspect anything, did he?"

"No, because the city defense alarm just rang, and it was a favor to say that it saved me from trying to sneak out."

Tang Qing's brows still did not loosen, and the expression on her face looked very hesitant: "Are you really...not going to tell him?"

Ling Qian let out a sigh of relief: "It's useless to tell him. After all, this body..." He looked down at his arms: "If this goes on, it won't last long. If there is really a way over there, then I can And explain to him that if it turns out that this is the last time I have left, then it's not in vain to give him hope."

As he spoke, he took the lead in walking towards the research institute.

Tang Qing followed behind him, looking unconvinced by him, and whispered: "But Xiaoqian, have you ever thought that this is unfair to Lu Ze?"

Ling Qian suddenly stopped: "Senior sister, I don't want to talk about this!"

After the words fell, he also realized that his tone was serious, rubbed the center of his brows, and turned to Tang Qing: "I'm sorry, senior sister, I..."

Tang Qing pursed her lips: "Have you ever thought that if there is no other way, now may be the last time you and Lu Ze have left? If he knows that you are hiding it from him—"

She lowered her eyes to avoid Ling Qian's gaze: "If I were him, I would not forgive you, let alone myself."

Ling Qian's gaze faltered for a moment, and in the end he turned around without saying anything, "Have they arrived?"

Tang Qing knew his temper, so she didn't ask any more questions, and followed Ling Qian's footsteps: "Two people are here, and they are in my office. You just said that the city defense alarm... What's going on?"

Ling Qian was a little absent-minded: "Probably they did it to deceive people when they entered the city."

After turning a corner, he arrived at Tang Qing's office. Through the glass door, Ling Qian saw two figures in the room. One of them was sitting on the sofa, and the other was standing by the window with his back to them.

The moment he unscrewed the doorknob and walked in, the man sitting on the sofa jumped up in shock, and pulled out the gun at his waist in a flash.

The expression on Ling Qian's face was unmoved. After closing the door, he put his hands in his trouser pockets and said softly, "Is this the sincerity of your cooperation?"

The other person raised his hand and suppressed his companion who drew the gun, and looked at Ling Qian with cold eyes: "I don't know that your so-called sincerity includes triggering your system alarm as soon as we entered the city."

Ling Qian frowned: "Didn't you trigger the alarm?"

The other party sneered: "As of now, one of our companions has been detained at your city gate checkpoint."

Ling Qian's eyebrows twitched: "In that case, save time, let's get straight to the point, what do I want?"

The man who drew the gun before became mocking: "Professor Ling is really arrogant. Equivalent transaction, what do we want?"

Ling Qian looked coldly: "I told Lipsey earlier that I couldn't give you the complete serum formula."

A trace of cruelty suddenly flashed in the other party's eyes: "So, do you want to go back on your word?"

Ling Qian said, "Since it's a transaction, everything can be negotiated. I've made my conditions clear to Lipsey. If he wants to turn back temporarily, he has to see who the transaction partner is."

With that said, he went to the sofa and sat down, clasped his hands on his knees, his gaze behind his shattered bangs was as cold as ice: "Or, does he think I have this one and only choice?"

The author has something to say:

I wish the little cuties a happy Tanabata in advance~

pick up light

Lu Ze has been very busy recently, very busy.

After the situation re-stabilized, Wei Junting and the others united with several nearby small towns to form an alliance of infected people along the western part of the continent. Nassar was no longer an independent city-state, but became the capital of this alliance.With the increasing population and trade flows, Lu Ze and the others are not just a simple city guard force.

More and more patrols require communication, more and more soldiers need training, and more and more systems need to be coordinated and finalized by all parties.In the past two weeks, he has been running outside almost all the time, and only returned home once in the middle of the journey. He stayed for half the night and left in a hurry before dawn.

The Institute of Biology in Nassar City, as the core institution of virus research since the end of the world, has also welcomed batch after batch of scholars from neighboring city-states to exchange and study.Tang Qing was exhausted. As the professor who led the clinical trial module, Ling Qian also had meetings of various sizes to attend, but generally speaking, there were not as many activities to attend as Tang Qing, and it was relatively relaxed.

At the beginning of August, after sending away a team of exchange scholars from the Gamma City-State, Tang Qing gave the entire research institute a three-day vacation to let everyone put down their non-emergency research tasks and go home to rest.

In less than half a day, the research institute was empty. Tang Qing locked the door of the office. As soon as she walked out of the corner of the corridor, she saw Ling Qian walking in with a box.

She was a little surprised: "Why haven't you come home yet?"

Ling Qian: "The condition of the experimental subjects in No. 3 nutrition warehouse is not stable, so I am not at ease."

Tang Qing raised her eyebrows: "If Lindsay heard what you said, she would definitely scold the researchers under her blood."

Ling Qian laughed: "I definitely don't mean not to believe in the latest model of artificial intelligence that she led to develop, but most of the time, I still have reservations about the machine. Besides, I'm fine at home, so I'll update the data by the way. "

"When I went to the headquarters for a meeting this morning, Wei Junting said that Lu Ze and the others should be able to come back in the next two days."

"Hmm..." Ling Qian had a thoughtful look on his face.

Tang Qing bumped him with her elbow: "What are you thinking?"

Ling Qian's eyes curled up: "It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered that I met Xiaoluer on the way home yesterday, and she seemed to be preparing some gift for Chen Xin."

Tang Qing seemed to think of something: "Don't say it, it seems that there is really a festival these few days... Ah yes, Qixi Festival."

Ling Qian frowned: "Qixi?"

Looking at his bewildered expression, Tang Qing couldn't help laughing out: "Hey, you boys... Qixi Festival was originally a traditional festival of the First Alliance before the end of the world. To explain it specifically, you can understand it as To some extent, it's Valentine's Day. Since Little Luer is preparing presents, how about you? Don't plan to surprise Lu Ze?"

Ling Qian's eyes flickered, and he stuffed the box in Tang Qing's arms: "I suddenly remembered something, so I'm leaving first. I bought this for dinner. Sister, take it home, bye .”

Looking at his crisp back, Tang Qing couldn't laugh or cry: "..."

after one day.

When Lu Ze got off the aircraft, he breathed a sigh of relief—this time, he finally finalized a joint training plan with the patrol forces of several city-states, and at least he didn't have to go out in the near future.

It seems that the position of this "leader" is not so easy to sit, and he suddenly feels that he misses those days when he can sweat freely on the training ground.

I don't know if Ling Qian has returned home at this point.

He took out the communicator and looked at it. It was 8:10 p.m., the alliance time. In the evening at the end of summer, the sky was already getting dark.

He called Ling Qian, but no one answered, so he decided to go home and put down his luggage before going to the research institute to pick him up.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Ling Qian coming out of the bathroom while wiping his hair. He was obviously a little surprised when he saw him: "I thought you would be late."

Lu Ze put the luggage bag aside, walked forward and hugged his lover's waist and kissed him on the chin: "I can't wait to see you, I will fly the aircraft when I come back."

Ling Qian gave a low laugh, and pushed the person away: "That's just right, I'll take a shower first, and I'll take you somewhere tonight."

Lu Ze raised his eyebrows: "Where?"

Ling Qian pushed him into the bathroom: "Surprise, I can't say it."

According to Ling Qian's temperament, it is very rare to be able to say the word "surprise". Lu Ze found it more and more interesting.

When he came out wearing a bathrobe, he saw Ling Qian standing in front of the full-length mirror in the entrance. He was wearing a formal suit which was rare. The slim suit outlined the perfect and strong curve of his waist and abdomen.

Lu Ze's eyes darkened immediately, he took a step forward and pulled him into his arms, and slightly lowered his head to get close to Ling Qian's ear: "It seems that this surprise tonight...is a bit big...but I still like you more, don't you?" The way you dress."

Accompanied by his vague voice, a series of small kisses fell.

Ling Qian's ears turned red, and he muttered something, Lu Ze laughed softly: "Why, are you shy?"

"Old hooligan." Ling Qian muttered louder.

Through the collar of the shirt, Lu Ze could clearly see that his chest was covered with a layer of pink, and the hand on his waist increased a little bit: "Well, I am."

Ling Qian was so distracted by his kiss, he finally caught a glimpse of the time on the wall clock above his head, frowned, and pushed Lu Ze away: "It's getting late, go and change clothes—"

Lu Ze's movements only paused for a second, and then he pulled the hem of Ling Qian's shirt without hesitation: "Okay, let's change together later."

Ling Qian: "..."

Fang Luxian reported to the team for a rest in advance, and waited at the agreed street before 9 o'clock.Although this is not their first date, she still feels like there are ten thousand butterflies fluttering in her heart.

She was still looking down at the gift she made by herself, wondering if Chen Xin would like it, her eyes were covered from behind, and Chen Xin said with a smile: "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Fang Luxian's face turned red immediately, she pulled Chen Xin's hand and shook her head: "Soon, I'm still worried that you won't be able to come back in time."

Chen Xin took her hand and kissed the back of her hand: "Don't worry, Captain Lu is also anxious to see Professor Ling."

Fang Lu smiled: "Yes."

"Then let's go, it's rare to come out tonight, where do you want to go?" Chen Xin held her hand while talking.

Fang Luxian did not leave in a hurry, she raised her wrist to look at her watch, calculated the time in her heart, and looked up at Chen Xin: "Close your eyes first."

Chen Xin raised his eyebrows in surprise: "What's wrong?"

Fang Lujian simply tiptoed to cover his eyes: "Close it first, wait for a while, soon."

Chen Xin reluctantly responded.

Feeling his eyelashes brushing against his palm, Fang Lulian's heart also moved slightly.

"...Three, two, one, all right—"

The moment Chen Xin opened his eyes, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable: in front of him was a colorful river of lights, and there were row upon row of lantern frames on both sides of the road. At this moment, all the lights were on, as if they were slowly unfolding on the dark land. A huge and gorgeous firework.

"This is..." He muttered in a daze.

Before the words finished, a little warmth touched the side of his cheek, and then Fang Lu spread his five fingers, and dropped a small and exquisite sachet in front of him: "Happy Qixi Festival!"

The grand light and shadow behind the girl's eyebrows are particularly clear, there is a smile on the corners of her eyes and brows, and her cheeks are slightly red.

Chen Xin only felt that his heart was so soft that he raised his hand to clasp Fang Lulian's palm, his five fingers slowly tightened, and the other hand wrapped around her waist and pulled her closer to him: "Happy Qixi Festival. I love you."

Accompanied by his deep voice, was a gentle and lingering kiss.

Lindsay hadn't left the office when the lights came on.

The scientific research building is currently the tallest building in Nassar City. Her office is on the top floor. This time happens to be her usual relaxation time every night. She usually turns off all the lights of the entire office building, and then Do a 10-minute breath meditation on your balcony.

But today, as soon as she started, there was a familiar sound of footsteps behind her.

She still closed her eyes and didn't open them: "What's the matter?"

The visitor stopped outside the balcony door: "Although I don't want to interrupt you at this time, but... I wonder if I can take up 10 minutes of your time?"

Lindsay let out a breath, turned around, and opened his eyes.

"Are you—" She looked at Wei Junting in surprise. He was only wearing a shirt with two buttons on his neckline. His face looked a little tired, but the light in his eyes was exceptionally clear.He held a bottle of red wine and two wine glasses in one hand, and a bouquet of bright yellow roses in the other.

He didn't answer. He walked to the table on the balcony, put down the wine, walked up to Lindsay with flowers in his hands, held her shoulders and led her to turn around, and pointed to a certain direction downstairs: "Look—— "

The street at that location did not know when a huge light flower bloomed layer upon layer. Although it was not known what it was made of, the bright lights were extraordinarily dazzling against the dark background of the surrounding city.

"This is..." Lindsay murmured, without even noticing that Wei Junting had half embraced him in his arms.

"I can't find anything better, so I can only give you this." Wei Junting's voice fell next to her ear, like a deep sigh.

Lindsay's back tensed unconsciously, and a vague premonition suddenly floated in his heart: "You..."

"Happy Qixi Festival, this is my gift to you."

Lindsay turned around in his arms with some difficulty, and looked at the man's eyebrows and eyes through the bright and delicate bouquet of roses in the middle.

For such a long time, unconsciously, this man has carved too deep marks in her life.

"I'm sorry that it wasn't Takeno who said this to you, and I never thought of taking his place in your heart, but I still want to ask you, can you give me a chance to stand by your side ?" Wei Junting's voice was very gentle, completely different from his usual killing decisions, his eyes were deep and focused, with a faint trace of unspeakable expectation and tension.

Lindsay stared at him for a few seconds, raised his hand to take the bouquet of yellow roses in his hand, lowered his head and sniffed, with a smile on his face: "Yellow roses represent waiting, are you so unconfident in yourself?"

Wei Junting didn't realize what she meant for a moment, his pupils dilated slightly——

The next moment, Lindsay threw the bouquet of roses aside, raised his hand to hook Wei Junting's neck, and kissed his lips.

Zheng Guanqi has a bit of a headache. He just has to take a patrol shift tonight. It stands to reason that people rarely go out after 9:[-] p.m., but who will tell him why?
