Before going out in the morning, Lin Zimao and Jiang Xuan heard the radio broadcast that a cold wave was coming, through the glass windows and almost transparent gauze curtains, they could feel the howling cold wind outside, and the snow accumulated a few centimeters deeper.
But Lin Zimao and Jiang Xuan, who were indoors at this time, had no time to feel the scenery outside.
Jiang Xuan pressed Lin Zimao against the shelf where the trophy had just been placed, he and Lin Zimao were kissing, and just as he was about to pull away, Lin Zimao took the initiative to hold the tip of his tongue, Jiang Xuan was hooked back, and all the cells in his body screamed not to let Lin Zimao go.
Lin Zimao bit him, and pulled Jiang Xuan closer, pressing tightly1嚴絲合縫 (yán sī hé fèng): to fit together perfectly (idiom); to join tightly; to dovetail—no loopholes can be found; Refers to the tightly closed gap. against him: “Senior Jiang, don’t you dare anymore?”
Jiang Xuan, who says nothing can be doubted, said: “Why don’t I dare?” His slender and fair fingertips, which Lin Zimao had stared at many times, had already grabbed the corner of his clothes, and he said in a deep voice, “It’s you that provoked me.”
Lin Zimao chuckled: “That’s right, it’s me. Then I’ll be responsible for extinguishing the fire for you, okay, Senior.”
Every time like this, Lin Zimao’s voice would be lingering, as if there was a magic power that attracted Jiang Xuan to sink, he knows that he is trapped in Lin Zimao, a little space pirate, and couldn’t get up, he didn’t want to get up either, but want to continue to fall.
Lin Zimao hasn’t slept in his room for several days, but the robot cleans it every day, which doesn’t affect their use.
Clothes fell all over the floor, and the bed sank once due to the two people’s movements.
The white snow reflects the lights, and the night is as bright as day.
The people in the room worked hard without knowing bright day and black night.
Today was different from the usual fun, Lin Zimao was finally made unable to straighten up by Jiang Xuan.
He wasn’t a delicate person, he had always been open and honest in front of Jiang Xuan, but now he didn’t want to be open and honest anymore.
He rolled up his quilt and collapsed on the bed, and said feebly: “Senior, please let me go today, no matter how hard I try, I can’t give birth to a little baby!”
Jiang Xuan’s muscle lines were all exposed in front of Lin Zimao, he lowered his head and kissed his dry lips: “Didn’t you say you want to give me two children? How can you do it if I don’t work hard, even if you can’t give birth, I have to work hard.”
Lin Zimao rolled his eyes at him: “I’m hungry.”
Jiang Xuan asked softly: “Okay, take-out or should I just whip something?”
Lin Zimao: “It’s up to you, do whatever is convenient for you, just eat it earlier.”
At his age, as long as he exhausted their energy, he would get hungry quickly, they also had spent an entire afternoon working hard, and his backs were a bit swollen and painful.
Jiang Xuan said: “Do you want to go into the medical cabin and stay for a while?”
Lin Zimao shook his head: “No need, wait until I finish taking a shower, I’ll just use some anti-inflammatory spray.”
Jiang Xuan was ready to take off the quilt he was wrapped in: “Be good, show it to me.”
Lin Zimao grabbed the quilt tightly: “No, I’m ugly.”
“Not ugly, I’ll just take a look.” Jiang Xuan insisted.
“You said the same thing just now!” Lin Zimao accused Jiang Xuan aggrievedly, “You go take a shower and cook.”
Thinking that he had indeed had a bad record just now, Jiang Xuan no longer persisted, hugged Lin Zimao across the quilt, and kissed his fingers that were pulling the quilt, making Lin Zimao’s fingertips itch.
“Then if you still feel uncomfortable, call me, I’ll set out the water for you, and I’ll put the anti-inflammatory medicine in the water for you too.” After giving instructions, he went downstairs to prepare dinner for the two of them.
Jiaoyan is now disliked by his two owners, as long as they close the door, they won’t let him into the room, it’s useless to meow outside, no one will hear it.
Jiang Xuan saw Jiaoyan squatting on the cooking table and staring at him like a sculpture, not calling out either, it had exactly the same look as Lin Zimao’s accusing eyes just now, he couldn’t help but smile, and got him a small can from the small cupboard, after being satisfied, Jiaoyan jumped off the cooking table, it hadn’t eaten canned food for several days.
Lin Zimao, who had been paralyzed upstairs for a while, pulled off the quilt and went to take a shower.
Didn’t expect to face the embarrassment of the aftermath for the first time, it was indeed a bit uncomfortable behind.
Jiang Xuan has already poured the anti-inflammatory medicine into the bathtub, so he should be fine after soaking for a while.
After soaking for about ten minutes, his body gradually returned to its original appearance, and Lin Zimao felt that he was as doughty as a dragon and lively as a tiger2生龍活虎 (shēng lóng huó hǔ): lit. lively dragon and animated tiger (idiom); fig. vigorous and lively; energetic; spirited; lively; doughty as a dragon and lively as a tiger—brimming/bursting with energy; full of vim and vigour; full of vitality. again.
He put on his pajamas and went downstairs, sitting on a chair waiting to be fed, Jiaoyan rubbed against his feet, and Lin Zimao played with its soft belly with his feet while scrolling through news on social platforms.
Tomorrow happens to be the day the Alliance agreed to give an explanation regarding Lin You’s matter, hopefully, they haven’t forgotten it.
Jiang Xuan, despite the traces left by Lin Zimao on his body, cooked a bowl of noodles for Lin Zimao, steamed two milk-flavored steamed buns, there is also a plate of side dishes pickled by the chef at home, Lin Zimao likes to drink this with congee.
Lin Zimao ate heartily, and kept saying that Jiang Xuan’s cooking skills had improved again.
Before they finished eating, Qi Jinghe from that side called Lin Zimao’s communication phone, Lin Zimao video chatted with him directly, Qi Jinghe saw him and Jiang Xuan having dinner.
He originally had something important to say, but when he saw the very homely dinner on the table, he was actually a little jealous.
“Don’t tell me that Zimao made all this.” Qi Jinghe said sourly.
“Oh, no, I don’t have this ability, I’m a person who can cope with it by drinking nutrient solution for a month.” Lin Zimao said without any emotion.
Qi Jinghe wanted to strangle Lin Zimao’s neck, but he was still a generation higher than himself: “Xiao Xuan, will uncle have the blessing to eat the food you cooked?”
Jiang Xuan knew that Lin Zimao was showing off, and his uncle often gave him things, so he said: “There’ll be a chance next time.”
Qi Jinghe was satisfied, only then did he remember the purpose of this video call.
“Zimao, let me tell you something.”
Lin Zimao swallowed the steamed bun and said: “You say.”
“The Alliance will release a report on how General Lin You’s merit will be determined.”
“How so?” Lin Zimao did not ask Qi Jinghe how he knew about it, he believed that Qi Jinghe must have his own channels, after all, he is also a director of the First University of Feige, and he was also considered a high-ranking person, he’s afraid the people in the Alliance didn’t know about it yet.
Qi Jinghe put away the smile on his face and said: “They want to announce General Lin You’s betrayal of the Alliance back then, saying that he switched to become a space pirate, preparing to weaken his achievements.”
Lin Zimao understood: “I knew they were not that easy to deal with.”
Jiang Xuan asked doubtfully: “My great-grandfather didn’t object? Aren’t the four of them the ones who had the best relationship with General Lin You back then?”
Qi Jinghe said: “It is said that this is the conclusion reached by the parliament after a week of discussion, most of the members do not agree, no matter how high your great-grandfather’s position is, he could not directly make the decision.”
Lin Zimao tapped the table thoughtfully3若有所思 (ruò yǒu suǒ sī): as if lost in thought—look pensive; thoughtfully; to look absorbed in thought.: “Actually, the Alliance’s approval wasn’t needed, I just want the people of the Alliance to know the existence of Lin You, the Alliance government can recount history but omit their ancestors4數典忘祖 (shǔ diǎn wàng zǔ): to recount history but omit one’s ancestors (idiom); to forget one’s roots; to be ignorant of the history of one’s own country or ancestors; count the records but forget the ancestors―forget one’s own origins; be ignorant of the history of one’s own country., but the common people must know.”
Qi Jinghe didn’t seem to see Lin Zimao’s panic or dissatisfaction, but rather felt that he had a well-thought-out plan.
He asked Lin Zimao: “What do you want to do?”
Lin Zimao shrugged: “Lin You is still popular, but the Alliance government is still struggling and refuses to admit it, shouldn’t they be given a stronger dose?” Otherwise, how could he live up to his appearance in the video some time ago.
His lack of action recently is not because he is afraid of the Alliance, but because he is waiting for the Alliance’s attitude.
Since their attitude is so resolute, they can’t blame him for not giving face.
Qi Jinghe was also very disgusted with the alliance’s consistent inaction, and asked Lin Zimao: “What do you want to do, I can help you.”
Lin Zimao nodded, what he lacks most in the alliance is helpers: “Okay, you can help me contact a few of my friends and see where they are now, it’s best to find out their whereabouts tonight.”
Qi Jinghe thought that he was indeed the child brought out by Lin You, he was not nervous at all when things happened: “Do you have any other plans?”
Lin Zimao said: “That’s all for the time being, as soon as the Alliance results come out tomorrow, we will release the video, they must also have relevant videos to prove that Lin You betrayed the Alliance and became a space pirate.”
Jiang Xuan asked Lin Zimao: “Do you have evidence to clear General Lin You’s name?”
Lin Zimao tilted his head, and revealed a shallow smile, this confident smile has become his signature smile when he wants to do bad things.
Jiang Xuan was relieved.
He has never seen Lin Zimao fight an unprepared battle, he would win this war.
Lin Zimao asked Qi Jinghe again: “Do you know who among Lin You’s four friends is most likely to betray Lin You, and who is most likely not to want him to return to the Alliance? Whose interests are most likely to be jeopardized? Have you ever thought about it?”
To tell the truth, Qi Jinghe felt that Lin Zimao’s insight was too terrifying.
“There are speculations, but it’s hard to say, I’ll come and find you tomorrow.” Qi Jinghe said, “I’ll find some of your friends for you now, you can send me their relevant information.”
Lin Zimao sent several IDs to Qi Jinghe: “I’ve sent it to you.”
Qi Jinghe disappeared in front of them.
Lin Zimao and Jiang Xuan exchange glances, the two looked at each other and smiled.
Jiang Xuan asked him: “Do you still have the strength to fight against the Alliance tomorrow?”
Lin Zimao was full of confidence, clenched his fist and said: “Senior Jiang’s strong support this afternoon has given me so much energy, I will definitely be able to do it!”
Jiang Xuan narrowed his eyes: You’ll end up breaking your legs.
When it was time to rest at night, Lin Zimao was lying on Jiang Xuan’s bed, being tossed around over and over again5翻來覆去 (fān lái fù qù): toss and turn sleeplessly; repeat; again and again; move from side to side., his essence was sucked out.
Once again, he regretted it to death.
He shouldn’t have been so quick with his tongue!
But the little space pirates all like to talk like this, and they can’t change it…
At this time, on a starship not far from Feige, several young people about the same age as Lin Zimao were having a secret conversation.
A boy with a smaller figure among the young people asked his friends for advice: “It shouldn’t be a problem for me to dress like this, right? I bought this tutu skirt at planet Black Rock last time, the beauty said that this is the most charming one, and that men from planet Feige should like me dressing up like this.”
A young man wearing glasses said: “There shouldn’t be any problem, but aren’t you too dazzling like this, when I went online, I didn’t see any girls on the street dressed like you, and neither did the boys.”
The boy in the pink tutu skirt said: “Lao Da6老大 (lǎo dà): the eldest among siblings; the ringleader; respectful title for chiefs and superiors. relies on his brains to make himself a hot search, I can become an Internet celebrity by relying on various skirts.”
Another tall and handsome young man said: “He said that it is normal for Lao Da to stand up for the general. However, he didn’t make us famous by the way, so it’s not reliable.”
The little fat man eating a hamburger said: “Yes, criticize him, eating alone! No regard for brother’s feelings.”
The boy in the pink tutu skirt said: “You’re not his brother either, he is older than you.”
The little fat man said: “Dead tutu skirt, what are you saying, I am his brother!”
The boy in the pink tutu skirt took away his hamburger and said: “Call me a dead tutu again and I’ll break off friendship with you! When I become popular, even if you kneel down and lick me, and I won’t care about you!”
The tall and handsome young man said: “It’s enough, you two have had enough trouble, we’re about to arrive at planet Feige.”
An hour before dawn, the four young men set foot on the ground of planet Feige.
