(Two in one) It’s like its trying to break out of the cocoon
…
Lu Liran is indeed full of thoughts of going home now. The people from the merchant fleet have all been found, and he was also full of sand cocoons now. According to the current situation, if they go directly to the pre-booked airship pick-up location tomorrow, maybe there is still time.
He hesitated for a moment, in this case, the place where Qin Qi bumped into before, just don’t go there anymore…?
Two large backpacks full of sand cocoons should be enough for the little guy to survive the next few months, and it won’t take long. Maybe when interstellar navigation resumes, he has enough savings to take his child back to his own planet, and directly perform a comprehensive repair operation.
While going through the choice in his mind, he and Ke Ji rushed towards the camp, and soon, he made a decision in his mind.
Someone at the other end of the camp has been paying attention to the movement on the side of the small sand dune. Seeing the figures of Lu Liran and Ke Ji, they immediately shouted: “They are back!”
“How is it? It looks like nothing is wrong?” Someone looked at them.
“Mr. Lu and Mr. Ke seem to be fine, what’s the matter? Are you itchy? Want to go too?”
“I have this idea, hehe…”
“Then you go!”
One of them pushed the teammate beside him who wanted to go as a prank, and the person jumped up in fright, and quickly jumped back to the original place.
“Go, go, go! I just said it casually!” The man patted his chest with lingering fear.
When he was intimidated by his companion, that person completely lost his mind. As far as he has the guts, it’s better not to bother, as any trouble can scare him out of his wits.
“Wow, Mr. Lu brought back so many sand cocoons!” People from the merchant fleet gathered around to observe and join in the fun, and they couldn’t help sighing softly. “If this bag is sold to the person who collects the sand cocoon, if it is 5,000 pieces, it will cost at least hundreds of thousands of star coins? This is too easy to earn!”
There are many people in the team who are mentally active, and hundreds of thousands of star coins are not a lot for them. They went out to run a business before, and the running fee was only about 10,000 star coins. If they are unlucky, there may be more than a few.
This time they came to the desert and lost so much. Those who died can get a pension, but those who are alive, it is estimated that they will receive at most three or four thousand star coins for their hard work and one or two months of vacation.
It’s better to pick up some sand cocoons, one is enough to cover most of the salary!
Lu Liran looked at the sighing merchant team members with a complex expression, and asked: “You don’t know the one who is collecting sand cocoons?”
“Huh? Did you accept it anonymously?”

“It’s a good thing I didn’t follow to pick it up…otherwise, who else would I sell this thing to…”
Little Six looked at the cocoon in his hand without tears, and his tens of thousands of star coins flew away with little wings.
[Fuck, fuck, fuck, I never thought that the person who was collecting the sand cocoon was actually Brother Lu himself!!]
[Five thousand per piece!! Brother Lu, this is too much money!]
[No, in this way, doesn’t it mean that Brother Lu really needs these sand cocoons urgently?? Why!]
[Fuck. Brother Lu doesn’t really have a problem with his heart, does he?]
Lu Liran glanced at Little Six, he paused and said: “The desert’s native products are still relatively valuable, even if there are no people who charge such a high price like me, generally, there will always be hundreds of star coins to be collected with each one, and there’s always people squatting there.”
Little Six covered his distressed chest, and nodded slightly sadly: “It’s okay, Mr. Lu, I can hold on.”
Isn’t it just tens of thousands of star coins flying? Anyway, he is still alive, so take a step back and see the sea and the sky.
Knowing that Mr. Lu is the one who collects sand cocoons at a high price, everyone in the merchant fleet also stopped thinking about making a move. Those who should rest should rest, those who should eat meat should eat meat, and those who want to drink water should go to the lake to gobble water.
Lu Liran also found a place to lie down, and talked to the audience in the live broadcast room.
—— “Monitoring the highest number of online users in the live broadcast room of the host: 383,000, the exchange repair ratio: 3.83, the current total repair progress of the appearance: 16.83%”
“The host needs to keep up the good work! The system’s rainbow farts can’t be contained anymore!”
Lu Liran closed his eyes and endured the noisy system.
Not long after, he heard footsteps coming from beside him.
He turned around and saw Ke Ji walking towards him.
“What’s wrong? Everyone else is almost asleep, why are you still tossing?” Lu Liran raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked Ke Ji in a lowered voice.
Ke Ji pursed his lips, and let out a sigh of relief: “I know this question may have crossed the line for you, but I still care about the reason why you collect so many sand cocoons.”
Lu Liran was stunned for a moment, so it was because of this?
He paused, he didn’t want to talk about his own affairs with Ke Ji, his private affairs had nothing to do with others. He closed his eyes, and the breath around him became alienated and cold, and he just said: “It did cross the line, and it has nothing to do with you.”
Ke Ji lowered his eyes and his eyes trembled. Even though he guessed Lu Liran’s answer, he still felt his heart being squeezed when he heard it.
After so many things, is there still no way to be included in the list that you can trust and ask for help?
He looked at Lu Liran with a complicated look in his eyes that he couldn’t explain.
He remembered that night the man’s back was tightly pressed against his chest, and they clasped their fingers tightly, like the closest lover.
He heard the man shouting “Ke Ji, Ke Ji” in a subdued and soft sobbing nasal voice.
That night was the only temperature he felt in the ten years of bloody slaughter, and it was the first time he had a real thought that just wanting to protect one person was enough.
Every time he raised his eyes to search for this soft, proud, bright, and shining young man, he could accurately catch the other party’s eyes that followed him all the time. He was so dependent on himself, revealing his softest side of himself without reservation……
After that night, he received news of a large-scale invasion of the Zerg in the frontline, and traitors appeared in the ranks. He didn’t have time to wait for Lu Liran to wake up, and he didn’t have time to leave an explanation with the other party, he could only hurriedly left the camp and went to the front line of the battlefield.
Then after that, he was seriously injured and unconscious, and his mental power rioted. Half a month after waking up, he learned that Lu Liran was injured on the front line, and the medical ship carrying the wounded was shot down by the Zerg, and his whereabouts are unknown.
He wanted to find someone immediately, but then, there was one battle after another, and the soldiers were overwhelmed.
Countless soldiers’ families and lovers were involved in this interstellar war, and he was not the only one who lost someone. And on his shoulder is the peace and glory of the entire A69 galaxy, and he can’t even retire like other soldiers or ask for a short leave.
He sent a detachment to search for the downed medical ship, but there was no sign of it, and everyone told him that there were no survivors. It wasn’t until the war ended in a bang that he had the opportunity to have time to be an ordinary person.
Ke Ji’s breathing became tight.
He realized that Lu Liran couldn’t trust him, and even forgot everything they had, because he didn’t give him enough sense of security.
Lu Liran avoided Ke Ji’s gaze, and was stared at by the man’s sad steel-blue pupils, giving him the illusion that he was about to drown in it.
He took a light breath, not understanding why Ke Ji showed such gaze and expression, could it be because he said “It has nothing to do with you”?
It’s not very pleasant to hear and a little bit inhumane, but there’s no need to be so glass-hearted!!!
Lu Liran jumped out three exclamation points in his heart, he pursed his lips and lowered his eyes, and said softly to Ke Ji: “I just don’t like other people running my business. It’s not about you.”
But Jin Fei can take care of your business.
Ke Ji thought silently in his heart, and the corner of his mouth twitched. In Lu Liran’s trust ranking, he was not even comparable to an ordinary soldier.
“I just hope you don’t have to do everything by yourself.” He said softly.
Lu Liran gave him a strange look, he paused and said: “I have Jin Fei.”
Ke Ji’s breath stagnates.
Lu Liran waved his hand: “I know you have good intentions, but I don’t think there is anything wrong now, so let’s stop this topic.”
After he finished speaking, he stopped looking at Ke Ji and turned his back to close his eyes.
After a long time, Lu Liran felt the gaze behind him gradually move away.
He breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart, and slowly opened his eyes. There was a trace of bewilderment in his dark brown eyes, and he was getting more and more confused about this omega.
There was silence all around, only the sound of the bonfire burning and the occasional desert insect chirping.
Everyone fell asleep, and no one noticed that in the bag near the bonfire, there lay a few cocoons that were stuffed casually by Little Six, and they were gently undulating in the cocoons as if there was a heartbeat.
The cocoons swayed slightly in the warm fur, as if they were about to break out.
Sunnyshies: Poor Ke Ji. I was about to cry at Ke Ji’s narration, but when I read A69 galaxy, I just can’t help but think of something…|་།￣）Blame my dirty mind…－＝≡ヘ(*・ω・)ノ
Recommendation time! I Refuse To Be The Villain I just found this novel, it’s the same author as Transmigrated as the Villain’s Cat, which was tl-ed by yours truly! Its a rebirth story about a boy who fell into the water was washed away, and was lost for almost ten years. When his family manage to find him, he found that they adapted a replacement for himself, and so he fell out of place. This is a story of “mc wanting familial love, doing everything for it, and then dying for it, only to realized that he was just a cannon fodder in a novel, then got reborn”, your typical rebirth drama story. BTW, this is not a spoiler! Its the summary of synopsis! So don’t worry!
Anyway, I like the author so much, she write good dramas, although the theme of her novels were as common as your every day life in CN web novel, what I like about her novels is that she always manage to hit the spot. Especially towards the revelation and face-slapping scenes. She also wrote heart-wrecking narrations, and heart warming relationship. Her writings ain’t perfect and have many flaws, but try checking it out. The author can really write many tragic protagonist.
It’s a short long novel, I read it for about a day…maybe if I didn’t play and did something else, I can read it for half-a day.
Oupsies, seems someone didn’t collect only empty cocoons…. 😨😨
Surprised again that Lu Liran didn’t double-check the cocoons of Little Six to make sure they were empty…
I doubt he showed it to Lu Liran, cause he only gave… I think three to Lu Liran~ the rest, he stowed away for himself, which are the ones that’s about to hatch.
These merchants are always a problem… Smh.
Here come the bugs… Thanks for the update 🤣❤️🦟🪲🪳👀
Thanks for the update (^•^)/
We learned more about their shared past, it makes me so glad & excited! I love how the author scatters the infos here and there while continuously revealing more of the 2 pov. Its srsly great.
Thank u sm for the hardwork <33 💓
Did Ke Ji forget he’s in disguise right now? Why tf would Lu Liran trust him, when he’s essentially a stranger to him? Unless he’s just upset that Lu Liran didn’t recognize him as the commander…?
Time for the buggies to appear 👀
I think he’s upset that Lu Liran didn’t try to contact ke ji even after the war ended and that he let Jin fei look after him and his son instead of asking Ke Ji for help. (I think LL took it as a one night stand because KJ didn’t have time to explain himself)
That makes some more sense!
Don’t forget that the communication to the outside world is cut down on that planet. Otherwise LLR wouldn’t be there anymore.
Wuuu Ke Ji already knows!!!! and little six don’t you think your sand cocoon have some bugs in it 🥲🎊
Yeah, the 69 wasn’t the best name for their galaxy(?) lololol
KJ calm down, man. You’re just a stranger to him. Who would share all their personal problems with someone they don’t know? :’D
Thx for the ch (ㅅ˘ㅂ˘) (Do I want to read what’s about to happen?)
Forgot a typo.
»““Five thousand star coins a piece?!« – one “
Help im so confused cause i took a break from reading. How does Ke Ji know that Lu is his omega?
Poor Ke Ji… Keep going babe, way to trust and love is not easy. And the bugs… Pft who will they eat? Idiots why are you taking bugs like that eat or throw, didin’t you talk about how they would come out after night? I hope it won’t be too disgusting.. but i dont have much hope. Okay i can take the blow i already feel numb to all these disgust.
I just hope they don’t look like cockroaches🪳
Ke Ji, did you forget that you’re masquerading as an Omega right now and Lu Liran has NO idea that you’re the Commander Ke Ji??? Did you really expect him to behave like he did in the past??? 😅😂
