Lin Yi didn’t know what was happening outside. When he got out of the car, it was peaceful outside. Fred and Chen Qiaoxu behind him both walked out with their stomachs stretched out and burping.
Fred was a little reserved before entering, but after eating the food, he immediately forgot about his dignity and manners.
However, he was a little worried after he came out. He couldn’t expect people to treat him to dinner every day, but when he thought about not being able to have this meal in the future, he felt quite disappointed and awkward.
Lin Yi noticed that the looks from the people outside were particularly friendly to him, even a little flattering?
Before Lin Yi could think about it carefully, Little D on the side had already come up to him and said to Lin Yi: “Master, are you satisfied with the taste of lunch?”
From a distance, everyone carefully and secretly looked at Little D, who had a fierce look not long ago. Especially Li Xingzhou, now that he caught a glimpse of Little D from the corner of his eye, his legs still felt a little weak.
At this moment, when he saw Little D speaking to Lin Yi in such a soft tone, it felt like a dream.
Lin Yi felt that Little D was like a child. He especially liked recognition and encouragement from others. He bent down and touched its head several times. “It tastes very good, as expected of Little D. You are making rapid progress and will definitely be able to make more progress in the near future. Little D will become a chef god.”
Little D was satisfied and laughed again.
Lin Yi turned around and told Fred that if there was nothing else, he would leave the set first.
While Lin Yi was talking to Fred, Chen Qiaoxu, who was next to him, saw Little D acting obedient in front of Lin Yi while he petted its head. He felt since he had eaten Little D’s food twice, maybe he should also give it some encouragement.
Thinking like this, Chen Qiaoxu planned to reach out and touch Little D’s head. Unexpectedly, Little D, who was originally facing Lin Yi, suddenly turned his head and looked at Chen Qiaoxu silently.
Chen Qiaoxu’s hand was stuck in mid-air in embarrassment, because he felt that Little D’s eyes clearly said: You can touch me, but you can’t keep your hand.
For Little D, most people have lost the basis for his trust. When it doubted itself and considered itself useless, people came to add fuel to the fire and made it feel like giving up. Only Lin Yi saved it from the fire and gave it the most important encouragement and support. Others were just shit.
The people watching secretly from a distance noticed this scene and all cast a sympathetic and empathetic look at Chen Qiaoxu.
Lin Yi got Fred’s approval and got into the mecha vehicle with Little D.
Before getting in the car, Lin Yi still noticed the strange and vague looks from the people around him, so he turned to ask Little D: “Little D, did you say anything to them earlier?”
“No.” Little D said, “Oh, maybe I said that ordering food can be available in the future so that they can buy lunch from the military canteen.”
Lin Yi looked confused.
Although Little D’s lying function is limited, it can selectively tell part of the truth. It said, “This is a taste evaluation project in the military canteen. I think it may be more beneficial to the data to have subjects from different planets participate. It’s true and accurate. In addition, I collected double the money from them, so I can save the excess to buy things.”
Lin Yi nodded and agreed with this reason.
An independent brain like Little D can indeed shop on his own, and can even automatically purchase software upgrades within a certain reasonable range. For an intelligent brain like Little A that has an owner, most of its activities require the owner’s permission.
Lin Yi looked at the military uniform on Little D and wondered if he should also buy a few sets for Little A when he returned to Capital Star? One set of two may not be enough for Little A.
He doesn’t know what others think, but in Lin Yi’s opinion, having a smart brain at home is no different from raising a small pet.
Little D asked Lin Yi: “Master, where do you want to go now? If you follow me back to the military headquarters cafeteria, it will definitely be crowded, but it’s also good if you are willing to stay in the kitchen with me.”
Lin Yi shook his head: “I’ll go over there during dinner. Now just take me to the entrance of the primeval forest.”

Hearing Qin Nuo’s title, Little D relaxed a little, but then asked curiously: “Are you and the Marshal going there to perform a mission?”
Lin Yi smiled and said: “For a date.”
Little D said in surprise: “Dating, is it the Marshal who is pursuing you?”
“No, it’s me who is pursuing him.” Lin Yi said calmly.
Little D was stunned for a moment, but turned to stare at Lin Yi with even more admiration and enthusiasm, “As expected of Master Lin Yi!”
All these actions were like thunder, causing Little D to wave light sticks crazily for him.
As the mecha vehicle moved forward, the scenery on both sides of the road quickly moved backwards, so fast that it almost disappeared from Lin Yi’s eyes. He opened his personal terminal and sent a message to Qin Nuo to confirm the time.
Lin Yi: Marshal, I am on my way to the primeval forest. Do you have time now?
Qin Nuo finished most of his work in the morning, and he postponed some of his afternoon tasks for tomorrow morning. After thinking about it, he felt a little strange about his mood.
This inexplicable restlessness kept Lin Yi silent until lunch break. During this period, Qin Nuo also clicked on the emoji package that Lin Yi had sent him, repeatedly dropping red hearts on his table several times.
Just when he was about to frown and pick up his work again, Lin Yi’s message finally came through.
Qin Nuo’s hand shook, and he immediately planned to reply to him. However, he paused after typing, and after a few seconds, he clicked the send button.
Qin Nuo: Well, see you later.
After sending it, Qin Nuo took a few more glances at what he sent and what Lin Yi had sent. He couldn’t help but feel that the message he sent might be too plain. He was worried that Lin Yi might misunderstand his emotions. He was looking for some opportunity to send another message when Lin Yi’s reply came flying over again.
It’s another emoticon, but perhaps more direct than the one in the morning. A child who looked like a little angel flew out of Qin Nuo’s personal terminal, then took the small bow and arrow on his back, pointed it at Qin Nuo’s heart, and said in a sweet voice: “One blow will hit your heart!”
The small arrow shot out with a whoosh and pierced Qin Nuo’s chest. It stayed there for four or five seconds before the illusion disappeared.
Qin Nuo touched his heart uncomfortably, feeling that he had obviously been worrying too much just now.
There is an entrance to the primeval forest, but there are no soldiers guarding it. Therefore, Little D insists on waiting for Qin Nuo to arrive before leaving.
Looking inside from the entrance, almost every tree inside is as thick as six or seven people, and the height is so high that it is almost impossible to see the top. The various flowers, plants and trees inside were much larger than the ones Lin Yi was familiar with, and any small flower was as big as Lin Yi’s face.
After Qin Nuo’s aircraft hovered down from mid-air, Little D got into the car and slipped away.
It was straightforward. Lin Yi hadn’t even taken off his morning makeup and was sitting on the edge of a huge tree stump. After Qin Nuo stepped off the aircraft, Lin Yi jumped down from the tree stump and walked towards Qin Nuo with a bright face.
“Good afternoon, Marshal.” Lin Yi said while looking down from Qin Nuo’s tightly clasped collar.
Qin Nuo didn’t know if it was his own imagination, but when the word Marshal came out of Lin Yi’s mouth, they always had some special and distracting ending.
“Good afternoon.” Qin Nuo said seriously, the expression on his face was as meticulous as his clothes.
Lin Yi looked up at the sky with a regretful tone: “It doesn’t seem like it will rain today.”
There was not a single dark cloud in the sky, and there was no sign of rain at all.
“The weather in the primeval forest can change at any time, and you can’t tell whether it will rain or not,” Qin Nuo said.
“Actually, it’s not that important. If it doesn’t rain, I can make time to come again. Can I invite you again then?” Lin Yi smiled slightly, his tone jumping between reserved and unrestrained, which was very touching. He doesn’t know what Lin Yi really thinks.
Lin Yi’s eyes were clear and bright, making every word he spoke more sincere, making people feel that they had misunderstood him.
After all, Qin Nuo was not as knowledgeable as Lin Yi. He turned away uncomfortably, “Let’s discuss it at that time.”
“Okay, I’ll do whatever you want.” Lin Yi returned with a smile.
He picked up an umbrella that Little D had left for him just in case, used it as a crutch, and started walking inside side by side with Qin Nuo.
There is a gentle breeze in the forest, mixed with the smell of trees and flowers. Lin Yi used his umbrella to push aside the green grass. After walking for a while, he suddenly said: “If it rains, the entire primeval forest will smell of your pheromones.”
After finally adjusting to a calm mood, Qin Nuo, who was walking beside Lin Yi with perfect demeanor, kicked a stone. The stone that was half buried in the soil was instantly kicked out of the ground, and the upper part was shattered on the ground.
Lin Yi turned around when he heard the noise and asked Qin Nuo enthusiastically: “Marshal?”
Qin Nuo: “It’s okay.” Then he simply walked in front of Lin Yi.
The whole forest is full of his pheromones. For a man who is over forty but has never dated an omega before, when he first met Lin Yi, he was so generous and open, it would be a lie if Qin Nuo didn’t admit he was in a good mood.
He walked a few steps in front of Lin Yi and felt his heartbeat beating too fast. Qin Nuo’s five senses were much better than ordinary people, and at the moment he only felt those few heartbeats ringing loudly.
At this moment, Lin Yi suddenly said from behind him: “Did you hear it?”
Qin Nuo felt guilty and did not dare to look back. He covered his chest with his hands, thinking that Lin Yi had just heard his heartbeat: “What?”
“The sound of rain.” Lin Yi said.
Qin Nuo turned around and saw Lin Yi looking up at the sky. He followed Lin Yi’s gaze and saw a few drops of rain falling on his forehead, which was a bit cold. Soon the raindrops became denser.
Qin Nuo’s mood also relaxed at that moment. A trace of pheromones leaked out without Qin Nuo’s control. The wind that followed the raindrops blew to Lin Yi’s nose.
Lin Yi raised the corners of his lips, raised the umbrella in his hand, opened it with a clatter, and held it above his and Qin Nuo’s heads.
The transparent umbrella was quickly covered with raindrops, and the two stood between the giant trees.
There was a height difference between the two, so Qin Nuo took the initiative to take the umbrella after a moment. He raised his head and glanced at the sky, and surprisingly did not find the signs of artificial rainfall.
Lin Yi held up the screen of his personal terminal, which showed the afternoon weather in the forest. “Sure enough, the weather here changes at any time, and it has already started to rain.”
Qin Nuo hummed and raised his hand to inform Zhi Nao to cancel the artificial rainfall. However, he couldn’t do it in front of Lin Yi, so he could only hold back for the time being.
The rain gradually became heavier, and there was a pressure that could not be ignored when it fell on the umbrella.
Lin Yi and Qin Nuo stood on a tree stump and watched the rain slowly gather into small streams and rush to the low-leveled areas.
“Is this kind of rain normal in the primeval forest?” Lin Yi raised his head and asked Qin Nuo.
Qin Nuo nodded: “It’s normal.”
Lin Yi looked at their umbrella again and felt that the umbrella surface was strong and could hold up. Qin Nuo’s hand was strong enough to keep the umbrella in place.
He stretched out his hand outside the umbrella, and his palms were soon filled with raindrops. “I like rain very much,” Lin Yi said, “because the sound of rain can make me feel very peaceful, and the Earth after the rain has a nice smell.”
Lin Yi looked at Qin Nuo, never forgetting to tease the Marshal, “Smells like your pheromones.”
For a moment, when Qin Nuo once again didn’t know how to respond, Zhi Nao, who had previously received the order for artificial rainfall, took action at this time. Even though it was already raining in the primeval forest, the Marshal’s order could not be disobeyed, so it still operated some data in the background.
In a short time, several aircraft flew over the primeval forest together, specifically targeting Qin Nuo’s position. They started flying one by one, and a literal downpour poured down from mid-air.
It almost hit the umbrella held by Qin Nuo with a clang. The umbrella surface could not withstand such great pressure and directly crushed the umbrella. Lin Yi and Qin Nuo both suffered a basin of water over their heads.
…
“Pfft.” Lin Yi spit out some of the raindrops that accidentally entered his mouth, and while pushing his hair back, asked Qin Nuo, “Is this rain normal?”
Qin Nuo: “…”
How could he say that the rain was arranged by him?
After a moment of silence, Qin Nuo nodded against his conscience for the first time in his life: “It’s still normal.”
Not surprisingly, both of them were soaked in the rain. Even Qin Nuo’s meticulous hair was drenched, and he looked tamed.
Lin Yi stared at him and thought it was funny that the two of them talked so indifferently for five or six seconds in the rain, so he suddenly reached out and grabbed Qin Nuo’s wrist: “Run quickly.”
Qin Nuo was pulled by him and staggered for two steps, but he quickly recovered and followed Lin Yi to the aircraft at the entrance.
When several artificial rainfall aircraft saw that Qin Nuo had run away, they continued to chase him to rain without giving up. The water flow formed by the rainwater under their feet was broken by their footsteps, creating small puddles.
The wind in the rain chased and blew on their backs, mixed with the sound of raindrops falling on various vegetation, like a piece of music in the rain.
Lin Yi’s mood jumped, and countless emotions poured into his mind like raindrops. The raindrops were cold, and only Qin Nuo’s wrist he held was warm at this moment.
It wasn’t until Lin Yi and Qin Nuo both boarded Qin Nuo’s aircraft that they escaped.
The two watermen rushed onto the aircraft together and immediately made the cabin wet. The carpet in the cabin was soaked to the core. The brain of Qin Nuo’s aircraft appeared quickly and looked at Qin Nuo and Lin Yi with some surprise, wondering what happened for a while.
“How come it’s so rainy?” It asked strangely. Where in the primeval forest could it rain so heavily? However, it was more important to clean and tidy up the owner. It quickly started pumping mode again, draining away all the excess water from Lin Yi and Qin Nuo, allowing their clothes and hair to dry.
After a while, both of their hairstyles were gone. Lin Yi was lucky. His hair was usually worn casually and he didn’t take special care of it. Qin Nuo was different. His hair that was originally combed back now hung down, making him look much softer and less energetic.
Because of the problems caused by Zhi Nao, the two looked at each other, probably thinking about the embarrassing run just a moment ago. Or maybe it was the first time that Qin Nuo wanted to laugh because of such a trivial matter. He could ignore the over-emphasis on identity and gender, just because he got caught in the rain. It seemed a bit stupid, but Qin Nuo’s mood was soaring.
He and Lin Yi looked at each other, saw themselves in each other’s eyes, and then laughed together without any burden.
“Or maybe it was the first time that Qin Nuo wanted to laugh because of such a trivial matter…. He and Lin Yi looked at each other, saw themselves in each other’s eyes, and then laughed together without any burden.”
🥺🥲 I love Lin Yi being happy, and Qin Nuo starting to open up more. This is one of my favorite series because the characters are so fresh and interesting. Thank you for translating!
100% agree
❤️
thanks for the chapter!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for the chapter! That was fun, lol
They’re so adorable, like teenagers falling in love 🤭
Why the Marshal is soooo cute!
Thank You for the new chapter (⋆◗̑◡◗̑)⸝♡
Thanks for the chapter! It was such a cute date!
They literally chase their marshal (and his date) around just to poured the artificial rain 😂. It’s a good thing that they obeyed their leader under every circumstance, I guess?
Ty for the chapter!!!
