Inside the aircraft, Lian Qiguang was lying against the window, his eyes not blinking as he stared at the rows of metal buildings and the crowds of people moving below.
Having grown accustomed to the prosperity and grandeur of Blue Star, arriving at this smaller yet lively little planet made him feel quite amazed.
“These are all the original inhabitants of the Undying Star.”
From behind, Xiahou Shaoxuan pulled Lian Qiguang into his arms and explained.
“There are no cars.”
“The Undying Star is different from Blue Star. It is only a small planet on the border, so very few people use hover cars. Also, because it is located at the frontier, they have to constantly defend against attacks from mutated creatures. No one goes out easily.”
“Most of these people were born on the Undying Star. Almost none of them have ever left this place in their entire lives.”
“This is happier than the apocalypse.”
Compared to that dangerous, dark, and cruel apocalypse, this place could already be considered paradise.
“Without experiencing the catastrophe three thousand years ago, no one has the right to judge that hundred years of darkness.”
Everyone’s understanding of the apocalypse was limited to the cold words written in books.
People who had never experienced that darkness could never understand the despair of that era.
“…”
Lian Qiguang looked up and glanced at Xiahou Shaoxuan’s sharply defined profile.
He pursed his lips and did not continue the conversation.
The aircraft flew quickly.
After more than half an hour, it slowly came to a stop.
“Boss, we’re here.”
Chong Mu’s voice came through the communicator.
Xiahou Shaoxuan lowered his head and looked at the person in his arms.
Lian Qiguang, who had originally been half-asleep, slowly opened his eyes.
“Tired?”
“Mm.”
He nodded dully.
“Let’s go. We’ll go back and sleep.”
Xiahou Shaoxuan stood up and held Lian Qiguang’s hand.
The aircraft door opened.
Lian Qiguang rubbed his eyes, half awake, and allowed Xiahou Shaoxuan to hold his hand.
He followed behind him, swaying with every step.
Several times, he bumped into Xiahou Shaoxuan’s hard back.
Looking at Lian Qiguang’s little head bobbing like a pecking chick, Xiahou Shaoxuan’s eyes filled with amusement.
After stepping off the spaceship, a cold breeze rushed toward them.
Lian Qiguang shivered.
The sleepy expression on his face instantly became clearer.
“Sister! In! Law! Welcome!“
A perfectly synchronized roar shook the heavens.
The sound made Lian Qiguang’s head buzz.
He slowly raised his head.
Expressionlessly, he stared at the countless rows of men in black military uniforms below.
His mind could not process what was happening.
“Welcome, Sister-in-law, how cute~~~~”
“So obedient! I really want to buy one and take it home!!”
“Is this child still underage?”
“Tsk tsk! He’s so young, Boss is shameless!”
…
These were the thoughts of the officers at that moment.
“Prepare!!”
A roar like thunder sounded.
Immediately afterward, a ghostly, wolf-like singing voice echoed throughout the military base.
A perfectly good military song was forced out of their throats.
Their faces turned red, their necks bulged, and they sang as if they were splitting rocks and shaking the heavens.
What is happening?
Lian Qiguang stared blankly.
He turned his head and looked at Xiahou Shaoxuan.
Only to see that Xiahou Shaoxuan’s face had already turned as black as ink.
After the song ended, thousands of soldiers stood straight.
“Click, click, click!”
The sound of weapons being loaded rang out.
Thousands of soldiers pulled out their guns and raised them with textbook-perfect precision.
Xiahou Shaoxuan’s expression changed.
Without saying anything, he suddenly reached out and pulled Lian Qiguang into his arms.
His large hands covered Lian Qiguang’s ears.
“Bang bang bang…”
The dense sound of gunfire spread throughout the entire Undying Star.
The bullets shot into the sky, forming a dense golden rain.
They intertwined into a huge net.
The sight was enough to shake anyone’s heart.
“Whoosh!”
They lowered their weapons.
Returned to attention.
Moved in perfect synchronization.
Then gave a military salute.
Their voices were loud enough to shake the sky.
“Welcome Sister-in-law to inspect the Undying Star!
Major General is mighty and domineering!
Everything is good!
No bad habits!
Please investigate carefully, Sister-in-law!”
“…”
Lian Qiguang.
“Hello.”
Expressionlessly, he raised his hand and returned the military salute.
“…”
Xiahou Shaoxuan’s face darkened.
He immediately pressed Lian Qiguang’s hand down.
His cold eyes swept across the thousands of soldiers.
His voice was filled with freezing anger.
“Everyone!! Training field!!
Don’t come back unless you run yourselves to death!”
“…”
The soldiers were confused.
What happened?
Did Boss have a fight with his wife?
“Why are you still standing there?!”
The pressure radiating from Xiahou Shaoxuan swept toward them without mercy.
Everyone suddenly felt their necks go cold.
They shivered.
Without another word, they ran.
“YES!!”
Thousands of soldiers scattered instantly.
A cloud of dust rose.
The previously crowded area became completely empty.
“Do they not like me?”
Lian Qiguang raised his face from Xiahou Shaoxuan’s chest and asked stiffly.
“No.”
His tone was obviously unpleasant.
“They pointed guns at me.”
He pointed toward the empty field, completely serious.
“…”
“They’re sick.”
Leaving behind this cold sentence, Xiahou Shaoxuan picked Lian Qiguang up and carried him toward the military camp.
Inside his heart, a storm was raging.
Those little brats are asking for punishment!!
The soldiers discussing life on the training field suddenly shivered.
Their future looked completely dark.
Xiahou Shaoxuan carried Lian Qiguang back to his room.
After putting him down, Xiahou Shaoxuan turned and left again.
Lian Qiguang tilted his head and expressionlessly watched him leave.
He kicked off his shoes and crawled into Xiahou Shaoxuan’s bed.
Not long after Xiahou Shaoxuan left, he returned.
Seeing the small lump curled inside the blanket, his footsteps paused.
A trace of warmth flashed through his eyes.
“Wife, get up.”
Xiahou Shaoxuan sat beside the bed and pulled the blanket.
“…”
Lian Qiguang opened a small gap in the blanket, revealing a messy head.
“Wife, drink this.”
Xiahou Shaoxuan pulled him out and handed him a tube of red liquid.
“What is it?”
“The Undying Star is different from Blue Star. Drink this medicine, otherwise your body will feel uncomfortable.”
Looking at the red liquid in Xiahou Shaoxuan’s hand, Lian Qiguang frowned.
A clear look of dislike appeared in his eyes.
He took the liquid.
Closed his eyes.
Then drank it all in one go.
A bitter and strange taste mixed with spiciness spread through his mouth.
Lian Qiguang’s expression changed.
Crack.
He bit down on the tube.
“Wife, you can’t eat that.”
Xiahou Shaoxuan’s eyes tightened.
He quickly pulled the tube out of Lian Qiguang’s mouth.
He was both amused and helpless.
“Is it really that bad?”
Seeing Lian Qiguang’s normally expressionless face now twisted together while he bit the blanket and chewed angrily, Xiahou Shaoxuan helplessly rubbed his soft hair.
“Disgusting. It tastes worse than human flesh.”
Lian Qiguang pushed Xiahou Shaoxuan’s hand holding the tube away.
“You say foolish things again. Have you eaten human flesh?”
“…”
Lian Qiguang’s movement stopped.
The face buried in the blanket darkened.
His lips pressed together.
He remained silent.
“No.”
After a long while, Lian Qiguang raised his head.
His face had already returned to being expressionless.
Looking at that emotionless little face, Xiahou Shaoxuan’s hand stopped.
He stared silently into Lian Qiguang’s eyes.
He did not miss the brief flash of sadness hidden there.
After a long silence, Xiahou Shaoxuan suddenly leaned down.
He gently bit Lian Qiguang’s tightly pressed lips.
“Mm…”
Lian Qiguang looked up.
His eyes widened blankly.
Xiahou Shaoxuan’s teeth gently rubbed against his lips.
The hand on his head slowly moved.
He guided him down onto the bed and leaned over him.
“Mm… uncomfortable.”
Lian Qiguang frowned.
His small hands held Xiahou Shaoxuan’s face.
He murmured softly.
“Wife, I missed you so much.”
Xiahou Shaoxuan whispered.
No longer satisfied with only his lips, he deepened the kiss.
His large, powerful hands brushed over Lian Qiguang’s neck and slowly moved beneath his clothes.
With slightly rough movements, he pulled them open.
The faint bitterness from the medicine spread through the kiss.
Lian Qiguang softly breathed out.
His hands slowly fell.
His moist eyes carried deep confusion and helplessness.
Xiahou Shaoxuan moved away from his lips.
He kissed along his cheek, then slowly downward.
Leaving ambiguous marks on his neck and collarbone.
“Shaoxuan… uncomfortable…”
Under Xiahou Shaoxuan’s teasing, Lian Qiguang’s voice became soft and hoarse.
His body moved restlessly.
The exposed skin rubbing against Xiahou Shaoxuan brought overwhelming heat and desire.
But Xiahou Shaoxuan instantly regained his senses at his soft murmur.
Looking down at the person beneath him—
His clothes were half undone.
Red marks covered his jade-like skin.
His dark eyes were moist and confused as he looked at him.
Seeing Lian Qiguang like this, Xiahou Shaoxuan felt his body tense.
A wave of heat rushed through him.
He wanted to throw his rationality away.
But he knew he could not.
His precious one was still too young.
He would hurt him.
“Shaoxuan…”
“Wife, sleep.”
Suppressing the violent desire inside him, Xiahou Shaoxuan carefully fixed Lian Qiguang’s clothes and covered him with the blanket.
“But I want to go out and play.”
“Rest first. Tomorrow I’ll take you.”
Xiahou Shaoxuan kissed his lips.
Without staying any longer, he practically fled.
“Where are you going?”
Seeing Xiahou Shaoxuan leave, Lian Qiguang called out.
“I… I still have some things to handle. Sleep first. I’ll come back soon.”
After saying that, Xiahou Shaoxuan hurriedly left.
Looking at the door Xiahou Shaoxuan had shut, Lian Qiguang was full of confusion.
He moved slightly, wanting to pull apart the blanket Xiahou Shaoxuan had wrapped around him so tightly.
But a sudden realization made his body freeze.
Lian Qiguang silently lifted the blanket.
He lowered his head and looked underneath.
After remaining silent for a long time, he reached a hand inside the blanket, seemingly wanting to confirm something.
The room was completely quiet.
No one knew how long passed.
Finally, the stunned Lian Qiguang sat up.
He took out his computer from his spatial storage.
With a serious expression, he opened it.
He found the search and answer section.
Then typed…
“What should I do if my little brother won’t soften?”
