Ayer began a long and arduous training session.
At the beginning, he needed to use drugs to assist his transformation rather than through his own intense emotions. The advantage of this is that after the transformation, Ayer can still maintain his sanity and do various training and strengthening his body in the state of a Dragon Blood Man. This is so that he can adapt to his new form faster.
At the beginning, because of the extra tail and a pair of wings that came out of thin air, Ayer felt awkward even when walking. He often swept the people around him with his tail. He destroyed three or four sets of expensive equipment. Later, all the assistants were always one metre away from Ayer. Only Tang Tingzhi followed him without any hesitation, recording every progress he made.
Once, when Ayer turned around, his tail hit Tang Tingzhi on the stomach. Tang Tingzhi couldn’t dodge in time so his face lost all colour on the spot.
“Colonel!” Several assistants rushed to help him up.
Ayer was distressed and angry. He pushed an assistant away, “Go away.” He picked Tang Tingzhi up and put him on the chair. He touched Tang Tingzhis stomach carefully, “Are you okay?”
Tang Tingzhi shook his head, “I’m fine.”
Ayer gritted his teeth: “What’s the use of this tail? It’s too much of a hindrance!”
“It has many uses. Such as, you can use it for attacking, defending, maintaining balance, and even regulating body temperature… You see.” Tang Tingzhi pointed to his tail.
Ayer looked down and was stunned. His tail was currently wrapped around Tang Tingzhi’s calf at some point but he wasn’t aware at all.
Tang Tingzhi said calmly, “Another important use is courtship.”
Ayer’s tail tightened all of a sudden. His face felt a little hot.
Everyone in the lab was a little embarrassed to hear this. Xiao Yuan coughed twice before saying, “Senior Colonel, he is definitely not seeking for a mate now…”
Tang Tingzhi glanced at him, “How do you know that it’s not?”
Xiao Yuan blushed and said, “Senior Colonel, you are not a female…”
Tang Tingzhi said seriously in a teaching tone, “Of course I know that. But many species in nature, apparently, are homosexuals. Although this behaviour violates the theory of evolution and it disrupts the process of reproduction, we cannot deny the existence of this phenomenon itself.”
A group of simple men around who devoted themselves to science all turned their heads away in embarrassment.
Tang Tingzhi said to Ayer, “It’s very simple to judge whether this is a courtship behaviour or not. We just need to test your current sex hormone secretion level.” Tang Tingzhi’s face was filled with the light of seeking knowledge.
Ayer pulled his tail back and slapped it on the ground. He glared at him, expressing his dissatisfaction at the moment.
Tang Tingzhi’s eyes lit up, “You can control it now. Try it again!”
Ayer turned his head and glanced at the big tail covered with lavender scales. He tried to control it by feeling. Sure enough, the tail flicked up with his thoughts. At this moment, he felt that this thing really grew on him. Ayer stood up happily, wagging his tail from side to side. He could finally control it!
Tang Tingzhi said gratifiedly, “The hard work during this time has not been in vain. When you can control it better in the future, you can use it to do more complex movements. Especially for attacks. When the Dragon Blood Man’s tail flicks, it can cause a heavy blow of more than 426 psi. It is a powerful weapon.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the tail came towards him again. Tang Tingzhi’s physical fitness could only reach the level of an ordinary soldier. Even if his eyes saw what’s happening, he couldn’t keep up to his speed.
Tang Tingzhi looked at it in surprise.
Ayer tightened his tail around Tang Tingzhi’s waist and pulled him over. His eyes couldn’t hide the excitement, “It’s so easy to use. It was like having an extra long hand.”
As if he had found a new toy, Ayer kept wrapping his tail around Tang Tingzhi’s body parts.
In the end, Tang Tingzhi’s assistants couldn’t stand it anymore. One of them cautiously persuaded him, “Don’t bother the Colonel. Let him go.”
Ayer snorted and said, “I don’t want to let go. I’m hungry. Go and bring me something to eat.” Ayer ordered a few dishes casually. There is no need to worry about eating and clothing here. As long as he asks for it, he can be satisfied.
So when they were eating the meal, Ayer’s tail was still wrapped around Tang Tingzhi’s waist. He was like a child who just got a new toy, holding on tightly and not letting go.
Tang Tingzhi acted very calmly. Although it affected his actions a bit, it was not painful. So he didn’t intend to stop Ayer. In his view, this is also a way for him to communicate with Ayer.
Tang Tingzhi also specially prepared a notebook and put it on his body at all times to record the details about Ayer in his life. This notebook is different from his research report. There is no data or obscure professional words in it. It is more like a diary during the process of him getting along with Ayer. For example, today, his record is ‘Ayer can control his tail now. He wrapped it around my waist for three hours and seven minutes. I think it is due to courtship.’
Two months have passed. Besides being able to fully control his own tail, Ayer has also made significant progress in the transformation between human form and Dragon Blood Man form.
With the continuous strengthening of training, Ayer’s appetite is getting bigger and bigger. It’s not that he wants to eat so much. But he is really hungry if he doesn’t eat. He was very worried about his figure. But his body didn’t develop horizontally. It instead grew two centimetres higher. Tang Tingzhi told him that now was the most critical moment. When his condition stabilised in the future, he wouldn’t need to rely on food to exchange for so much energy anymore.
That night, when Ayer was about to go to bed, he was hungry again. He had eaten four or five adults’ meals for dinner and it had only been four hours. He was already famished. However, he can also clearly feel that his physical fitness is growing rapidly. If measured by human standards, he is now a real Superman.
Maybe Superman just needs to eat more, Ayer thought dejectedly.
He wanted to call someone to bring some food for him but when he picked up the phone, his heart skipped a beat. He wanted to see if Tang Tingzhi was asleep. He didn’t want to eat by himself.
The two rooms are separated by a wall. Ayer would always harass him when he had nothing to do, But he didn’t dare to stay for a long time. He knew that he could not fully control himself. If he really hurt Tang Tingzhi, he would regret it very much.
Thinking of this, he walked out and knocked on the door of the next room.
At this time, Tang Tingzhi had just finished taking a shower. But he hadn’t fallen asleep yet.
When the door was opened, Ayer saw Tang Tingzhi who was wearing a pyjama with his hair still wet. Tang Tingzhi asked, “What’s the matter?”
“I’m hungry.” Ayer sniffed the air, “What are you eating? It smells so good. Are you hungry too?”
“Well, I don’t normally have an appetite at night. But now, I want to eat. So I cooked something myself.”
Ayer walked in swaggeringly. He treated it just like him going back to his own room, “You cooked for yourself? Why didn’t you ask them to deliver food for you?”
“It’s too late already. The master chef has gone to bed by now so there’s no need.” Tang Tingzhi said: “But you can call the others to cook for you. I don’t have enough ingredients here.”
Ayer walked into the kitchen and saw a stewing pot on the gas stove. He opened it and found a white porcelain bowl inside. There was a golden yellow paste inside the porcelain bowl. The surface was as smooth as glass. The colour was pleasing and the taste must be amazing. It looked too attractive.
Ayer smiled and said, “What is this? It looks delicious.”
“Egg custard. It’s very easy to make. I was ready by the time I came out of the shower.” Tang Tingzhi took the porcelain bowl out of the stewing pot with a tool. He then handed Ayer a spoon, “Try it.”
Ayer scooped up a full spoonful and put it in his mouth. He swallowed it impatiently. Although it was still a little hot, the delicious and soft taste made him feel good. He said, “What else do you have in the refrigerator? Cook something for me.”
Tang Tingzhi opened the refrigerator and looked, “What do you want to eat?”
“What can you make?”
Tang Tingzhi touched the touch screen on the refrigerator and the LCD computer screen was turned on. Tang Tingzhi found a few dishes to cook based on the ingredients he had, “Wait a minute. I’ll cook something for you.”
Ayer scooped up a spoonful of egg custard and brought it to Tang Tingzhi’s mouth, “Open your mouth.”
Tang Tingzhi smiled slightly at him, “You can eat. I’m not that hungry.”
Tang Tingzhi seldom smiles. He seems to be born without knowing how to smile. His face always lacks a lot of expression. He often faces any kind of situation calmly.
Ayer was stunned for a moment. He thought this was the most charming smile he had ever seen. It was like a flower bud that had been brewing for too long in the flowering period and bloomed instantly.
Ayer couldn’t help lowering his head as he cupped Tang Tingzhi’s cheeks. He kissed him tenderly.
Tang Tingzhi was still at a loss. With his bright eyes open, he let him kiss him stiffly.
Ayer said helplessly, “Can’t you just close your eyes?”
“Why should I?”
“It will be more romantic if you close your eyes.”
“Is there any logical basis for this?”
Ayer decides it’s better to just gag him. He pressed Tang Tingzhi against the refrigerator door and ravaged his soft lips passionately. He deftly inserted his tongue into his mouth and stirred the inside of his mouth wantonly.
They exchanged each other’s breath and saliva. The kiss was unimaginably passionate. Tang Tingzhi’s opened eyes were gradually covered with a layer of mist. It became difficult for him to breathe and his legs felt weak.
What’s wrong with me? Tang Tingzhi didn’t understand how to explain his own physical reaction.
Ayer hugged his waist and gave him the most favourable support.
Tang Ting subconsciously grabbed Ayer’s arm and slowly closed his eyes. He was dizzy from the kiss and his cheeks were flushed seductively.
Ayer let go of him while panting. His blue eyes were half as deep and charming as the sea. Tang Tingzhi half-opened his eyes and looked into those eyes. He was just looking at them but he felt as if he was about to be sucked right in.
Ayer couldn’t help reaching into Tang Tingzhi’s clothes, stroking his smooth and warm skin.
Tang Tingzhi let him touch him at a loss. His eyes were full of confusion.
Ayer gnawed on his collarbone carefully. His soft blond hair kept rubbing against Tang Tingzhi’s chin. Tang Tingzhi couldn’t help reaching out and touching his hair lightly.
This gentle touch seemed to give Ayer great encouragement. He tore off Tang Tingzhi’s loose pyjama pants and rubbed Tang Tingzhi with his erected dick, declaring his desire.
Tang Tingzhi blinked his eyes in surprise. He finally captured the information within his knowledge. He asked in disbelief, “You got an erection?”
Ayer looked at him confusedly. He could only feel that his body was getting hotter and hotter. His blood was roaring and surging in his body as if it was being boiled. It was as if it would erupt in the next second. Ayer groaned in his heart. He realised that this felt like a sign before transforming.
Tang Tingzhi grabbed a water glass next to him and splashed the water on Ayer’s face.
Ayer’s golden hair stuck to his face and the water flowed down slipperily. He lost all interest and looked at Tang Tingzhi sadly.
Tang Tingzhi breathed a sigh of relief, “Thank god… That was too dangerous.”
Ayer let go of him depressedly. He combed his hair with his fingers to the back of his head, displaying his beautiful jaw which was slightly stiff. His whole body was filled with dissatisfaction.
Tang Tingzhi sensed his frustration. But he didn’t know how to comfort him. He placed the egg custard in front of him, “Ayer, you should eat.”
Ayer took the porcelain bowl. He then turned around and went to the dining table. He sat down at the table sullenly and ate the custard slowly.
After more than half an hour, Tang Tingzhi came out with a few more dishes, “I can only make these. I hope this is enough for you.”
Ayer’s mood stabilised a lot. He glanced at him depressedly, “It’s enough.”
Tang Tingzhi unconsciously knocked on the table with his fingers. After thinking for a long time, he finally came up with a comforting word, “Your progress is very fast. According to the current speed, you will be able to have sex within a year.”
Ayer’s face turned unsightly, “One year is considered fast?”
“It’s not that long.”
Ayer buried his head in his meal and didn’t want to talk anymore.
The two finished their meal in silence.
After Tang Tingzhi cleared the table, he planned to go to bed and sleep. Seeing that Ayer was still sitting on the sofa and didn’t intend to leave, he said, “Go back and rest. I’m going to rest too.”
Ayer glanced at him and said domineeringly, “I want to sleep with you tonight.”
Tang Tingzhi frowned slightly, “You can’t…”
“Only sleep.”
“Only sleep? Like lying down together?”
“Yes.”
“Oh. Okay.” Although he couldn’t figure out why Ayer wanted to lie down with him, he didn’t want to reject Ayer. Recording Ayer’s life in his diary had become an interesting thing for him to do. Today, he had a lot to write about in his diary.
Ayer went into the bathroom to take a shower. Tang Tingzhi took out his diary and wrote down ‘Ayer likes to eat egg custard very much. He will sleep with me tonight.’ After he finished writing, he looked at the neat note and tilted his head as he thought for a while. He then added ‘I cooked for him’ in the middle of the two sentences.
Not long after he lay down on the bed, Ayer came out of the bathroom.
He crawled onto the bed covered in cool moisture.
Tang Tingzhi turned his head to look at him.
Ayer patted his head, “Turn back around. Don’t look at me.”
Tang Ting didn’t know why he was told to do this but he turned around anyway.
Ayer lay down next to him. A strong arm was wrapped around his waist and he was hugged tightly from behind.
Tang Tingzhi opened his eyes in the dark. His breathing became a little unsteady.
Ayer whispered in his ear, “Your hair smells so good.”
Tang Tingzhi said, “I just shampooed it.”
“Don’t tell me these things.”
Tang Tingzhi thought for a while, “I used shampoo. It was the shampoo that smelled good.” He thought this sentence should be a reasonable explanation.
Ayer said helplessly, “Close your mouth. Close your eyes. Go to sleep.” He rubbed his nose against Tang Tingzhi’s soft and thick hair. He added, “I won’t hurt you.”
Tang Tingzhi closed his eyes. The corners of his mouth couldn’t help but rise into a smile. For the first time, he knew that lying with others on a bed was so warm and even a little comfortable.
