“Did I bite hard that night?”
…
Lu Liran froze on the spot.
Many thoughts quickly ran through his mind, but not a single word came out of his mouth, as if he was speechless.
“I didn’t tell you from the beginning because I didn’t know until now that what happened that night was just an accident to you, an accident not worth mentioning again.” Ke Ji whispered.
“I thought it was an impulse caused by mutual love. I heard you calling my name, but I didn’t expect it was just an accidental passion…”
Lu Liran’s face felt hot. Ke Ji reminded him of the chaos that night. He coughed twice and quickly stopped Ke Ji.
“Okay, Zai-Zai, wash your hands. Let’s go to the dining room to find Jin Fei for dinner. Papa will be there soon.” He covered Lu Ziqian’s ears, then picked him up, and hurriedly threw him out of the bathroom door.
Then he quickly closed the sliding door of the bathroom and locked himself and Ke Ji in the bathroom.
Ke Ji chuckled, he took a step forwards, and stuck Lu Liran between the sliding door and himself. He asked in a low voice: “Zai-Zai is yours and mine, right?”
Lu Liran felt Ke Ji’s breath spraying on his neck, and his whole body felt a little soft and hot. He muttered: “…you can tell just by looking at his eyes.”
Ke Ji lowered his eyes slightly: “Yes, I can tell just by looking at them, but two fools just guessed this and that…and wasted a month.”
“But fortunately, this month has allowed me to see you differently from different angles.” He changed the topic and gently lifted the man’s hair in front of him with his fingers.
Seeing that Lu Liran had no intention of resisting, his eyes darkened, and his fingers went around the broken hair and came to the back of Lu Liran’s neck.
The slightly cool fingertips gently rubbed the slightly raised glands on Lu Li’s neck. His lover’s glands were slightly raised like tiny and delicate spines, slightly hard but with the warmth and softness of skin, and it feels great to the touch.
Ke Ji couldn’t put it down and rubbed it gently again and again. The temperature under his fingertips was getting higher and higher, as if wanted to point his fingers.
Lu Liran snorted, and after enduring it for a few moments, he couldn’t help but want to escape, but was caught back by Ke Ji and was held tightly in his arms.
Ke Ji spoke hoarsely, he looked at Lu Liran with a heavy look and asked: “Did I bite hard that day?”
“…I don’t remember.” Lu Liran pursed his lips and couldn’t help but tilt his head slightly. His raised Adam’s apple rolled up and down slightly, attracting Ke Ji’s attention.
Ke Ji smiled, then picked up Lu Liran abruptly and placed him on the sink. He leaned slightly to ask Lu Liran for his permission: “Can I do it?”
Lu Liran: “……”
His eyes flickered, he pressed Ke Ji’s neck down, then raised his head and kissed Ke Ji’s lips and gently opened them, and he laughed softly: “Didn’t you say soul mate? Can’t you hear what my soul is saying?”
“I heard it.” Ke Ji smiled and hugged the man’s thin and flexible waist tightly, “It said, give it to me.”
…
The child, Lu Ziqian, stood at the door blankly. It was not until Jin Fei came to find someone that he took the little boy away.
“Papa and uncle are both in the bathroom. They slammed the door shut…” The little boy followed Jin Fei step by step. He looked up at Jin Fei and muttered in a low voice, with a little bit of complaint and grievance, “Throwing Zai-Zai out.”
Jin Fei’s eyes twitched when he heard this, what the young master is doing doesn’t seem like anything serious…
Considering the young master’s previous record of forcibly kissing the commander twice, Jin Fei thought for a while and said: “Ah…little young master, let’s eat first, Jin Fei will find you an earmuff.”
The little cub was put on the baby chair, and then Jin Fei looked around the room for earmuffs, and finally found two pairs of fluffy yellow bear-like earmuffs. One pair covered the little cub’s ears, and another pair covered his own ears.
Afraid of hearing something that shouldn’t be heard.
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
Jin Fei watched with his eyes and nose, working diligently, feeding the cub one bite after another.

But Jin Fei’s bottle of facial cleanser was knocked over and shattered, and the sticky cream was scattered everywhere. Lu Liran and Ke Ji had to spend some time cleaning up the mess.
——That’s why they took so long to come out.
Lu Liran’s temples jumped, and he raised his hand to take off the earmuffs of one person and one child, raising his eyebrows high: “What are you wearing earmuffs at home, you two?”
He paused, then turned to Jin Fei, warning with red ears: “And you, don’t think too much.”
Jin Fei looked at his young master. Although his clothes were a little messy, there didn’t seem to be any strange marks on his body, and he came out very quickly. It was estimated that nothing happened.
As an all-round housekeeper, Jin Fei calmly faced his young master’s anger and nodded: “We just thought you and the Commander were going to discuss something confidential. Don’t think too much about it.”
Lu Liran：“……”
The meal was finished in harmony and the commander was sent away.
Before Jin Fei was about to go into the bathroom to take a shower, Lu Liran suddenly called out to him uncomfortably: “By the way, I accidentally knocked over your bottle of facial cleanser. I brought out a new bottle for you.”
The main reason was that Ke Ji carried him to the washstand and kissed him. He accidentally swept the bottles and jars off the table in a moment of excitement.
The jar of stuff hit the ground with a “clang”, causing both of them to wake up immediately. They did nothing else but just clean up the sticky and slippery cream on the ground.
Jin Fei’s pupils shrank slightly, but he nodded calmly: “Okay, it’s okay. I’ll go take a shower first.”
“Um.”
Jin Fei quickly walked into the bathroom, he closed the sliding door, and scanned the room with as much precision as a radar.
Obviously, the two men, who didn’t usually put things away, didn’t do a very good job in restoring them. Jin Fei noticed the rearranged bottles and jars at a glance, and also found some leftover facial cleanser that had been left on the sink and had not been wiped clean.
Jin Fei took a breath.
Fortunately, he and the little young master put on earmuffs, it was so intense.
With an expressionless expression and some obsessive-compulsive disorder, Jin Fei returned all the bottles and jars, took out a rag, and wiped clean all the white sticky specks that were still in the corners.
It’s still a bit faster, ah..….
But thinking about it, maybe it’s because both of them have been holding it in for a long time?
Jin Fei was thinking wildly, but he quickly made the bathroom clean and orderly again.
Then take a shower.
When he came out, he acted like nothing happened.
Lu Liran breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Jin Fei came out as usual. He became more immersed in playing blocks with his cub, and was sure that the kiss between him and Ke Ji in the bathroom was concealed smoothly.
…
After returning to normal life, Lu Liran received concerned greetings from many people.
Lucio, the black market businessman, then Xian brothers, Rocke Feller, the old director…he simply replied with the same thank you reply with one click, which was considered as a pleasantries.
People who don’t have anything extra to ask him will naturally not reply. Those who have something to ask for will come to him after Lu Liran replies.
For example, the old director, He Baidao.
They had met each other once before, and although they didn’t have much interaction with each other later, Lu Liran still remembered Qi Bai mentioning that it was the people from the institute who provided them with special emergency relievers after they were rescued, so they were able to recover quickly.
Therefore, Lu Liran still looked at the news that the old director had found slightly more carefully.
[He Baidao: Mr. Xiao Lu, it’s like this. I have an old friend who studies geology and archaeology. He is particularly fascinated by the ruins of Altagan. After watching your live broadcast, he has been thinking about that box. I would like to ask if I can rent the metal currency of Altagan?]
Lu Liran raised his eyebrows slightly, Altagan’s metal currency…after returning home these two days, he almost forgot about this thing.
An ancient and disappeared main city currency does not have much meaning to him except for a little collection value. Naturally, he does not mind renting it out to those old professors for research.
Before he could reply to He Baidao, He Baidao quickly sent another message:
[He Baidao: That old friend of mine also has some background. It will be a lot easier to come to him for anything in the future. Of course, there will definitely be a rental fee. He is much more flexible with funds than a small bank like me. When the time comes, Mr. Xiao Lu can set whatever price he wants.]
Lu Liran raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw this, he thought for a while and replied:
[Lu Liran: You can rent it, but it needs to be delivered in person. There is some risk in sending this box through Star Shuttle, as it will be damaged.]
He Baidao didn’t expect Lu Liran to be so easy to talk to, so his eyes suddenly lit up and he quickly informed his friend.
[He Baidao: Okay, okay, if you don’t mind, how about today? He and I were near the Garden Hotel.]
[Lu Liran: Okay, see you in the lobby in half an hour.]
[He Baidao: OK!
After Lu Liran made an agreement with He Baidao, he thought about it and took out a few of the coins—— one for the Xian family caravan, one for Rocke Feller, and a few for himself to keep for fun.
Even if He Baidao’s old friend wanted to take the remaining box, he actually didn’t have much objection, for He Baidao’s sake.
He always repays a favor, a transaction is a transaction, and a friendship is a friendship.
Lu Liran changed his clothes, he looked at the time, it’s almost time for him to set off to the lobby.
This time, Lu Liran didn’t have to wait for them any longer, when he arrived at the lobby, He Baidao was already waiting in the lobby.
Standing next to He Baidao was a tall and straight man, who looked like he had been in the military. Lu Liran walked over and looked at the man with some surprise.
“This is Mr. Xiao Lu I’m talking about.” He Baidao introduced with a smile, “This is Xie Wei, a Lieutenant Archaeologist.”
Lu Liran nodded slightly.
“Hello, can I take a look at the box of currency first?” Xie Wei said straightforwardly.
Lu Liran nodded slightly, he took out a barrier ball, and erected a separate barrier directly around the three of them, which was equivalent to a private space and was a tool often used by their bounty hunters when conducting transactions.
He then took out the currency box and wrapped it in a protective cover to prevent light oxidation damage.
Xie Wei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Lu Liran’s protective measures were so appropriate, and his expression became much gentler when he looked at Lu Liran.
The currency was covered with blue-green sea rust and dead microbial corpses accumulated on it, making it almost impossible to see its original appearance.
Xie Wei murmured and sighed, and said to Lu Liran: “You are the only person who has witnessed and protected the miracle. That’s great…”
Lu Liran smiled slightly and said nothing.
“How much is Mr. Xiao Lu willing to lend this box of Altagan currency? I may need to rent it for at least one year, or three years.” Xie Wei opened his mouth, but his eyes were fixed on the box of currency, and he asked absentmindedly, which made Lu Liran couldn’t help but suspect that maybe no matter what price he offered, the other party would agree without hesitation.
Lu Liran glanced at the old mottled scars on the back of Xie Wei’s hands. They were wounds left by the mouthparts of the Zerg. He might have been a frontline soldier who defended his family and country.
His impression of Xie Wei was inexplicably very good, and He Baidao’s description of him had a little background, and he was an old friend of He Baidao. This time, he accepted the other party’s small friendship. Lu Liran was too lazy to use money to set the threshold, and simply opened his mouth and said: “Then let’s renew the lease every year at the price of two hundred thousand star coins per year.”
This research price can be said to be the humanized price of Chinese cabbage.
He Baidao was very happy, and Xie Wei was also surprised, but he didn’t refuse much. He just nodded and said: “Okay. This is my contact information. If there are other ancient cultural relics in the future, we can communicate more.”
Lu Liran responded, and after agreeing on a deal, he stood up and planned to leave directly.
But He Baidao stopped him again. The little old man corrected his attitude and expression, and asked somewhat seriously: “I have one more small request. I wonder if Mr. Xiao Lu would be willing to lend us the unknown creature brought up from the bottom of the sea to study?”
Lu Liran paused.
To put it bluntly, he didn’t want to lend it to Desolate Star, nor did he want to help Desolate Star to develop any future technology and make progress. He would return to his home planet when the nebula dust cleared, and would never step into Desolate Star again.
The word “Desolate” in Desolate Star means desolate and absurd. It is such a planet that is full of absurdities from the inside out. Unless the majority of people are truly awake, there is no way to save it.
Lu Liran looked at He Baidao and twitched his lips: “You know the research value of this new discovery, whether it is biology or military. And I don’t want to be involved in any military related matters in Desolate Star.”
He Baidao knew clearly that this was Lu Liran’s answer. He was not too surprised, but he was also a little disappointed. He smiled helplessly and said: “I also guessed that you would react this way, but those people just refused to give up and insisted on asking me to do it for them. I think they will give up now.”
Lu Liran raised his eyebrows slightly, asked on behalf of someone?
“Who’s thinking about it?” Lu Liran asked jokingly.
“Of course they are from the Military Research Institute.” He Baidao said with a smile, “Although I am also very greedy for that stuff, don’t worry, I will help you reject them. It’s all about personal freedom of the individual’s will, no pressure.”
Lu Liran nodded slightly, will he also be under pressure? What a joke.
But he just felt that the people at the Military Research Institute would not give up so easily.
Lu Liran didn’t say anything more. After nodding greetings to Xie Wei and He Baidao, he turned around and walked to the elevator entrance.
Before entering the elevator, he heard a sudden commotion in the lobby.
He looked up and saw six or seven soldiers who looked like bodyguards suddenly crowded in at the door of the hotel and surrounded Xie Wei. The faces of those people were a little nervous.
Lu Liran heard the leader of the group ask: “Where have you been! Don’t leave us and wander around again, it’s too dangerous!”
“How dangerous can it be in the center of Star City? You think I’m useless? Okay, let people disperse, don’t let people watch the fun.” Xie Wei’s face darkened and he scolded.
“Chief, you…”
There were more and more curious people in the lobby, and He Baidao had to drag his angry old friend away quickly.
Lu Liran withdrew his gaze and looked up thoughtfully at the dancing numbers above the elevator. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be a certain leader of Desolate Star, who didn’t look that annoying.
It is true that there is little freedom of movement if someone at the level of the senior staff comes out.
Lu Liran suddenly raised the corner of his mouth, thinking that it was a miracle that Ke Ji could escape from Solto Star without saying a word and not be discovered by anyone on the Desolate Star.
No wonder he pretends to be a[tn content=”baifumei“]White rich and beautiful [/tn] Omega.
