Duan Hengye's "soul" had just returned to his body. When he heard Meng Jinhuai's voice, he couldn't help but become absent-minded again. He even temporarily forgot about the pain in his body.
However, Duan Hengye was still immersed in the words in the book and the shock brought to him by the LDK-300. However, when he heard about the antidote, he instinctively pulled his body out of the quagmire of sleep.
He could think about the rest later. It was more important to deal with the poison first.
Although Duan Hengye's consciousness had returned, his body was still weak. When he heard Meng Jinhuai's words, he subconsciously wanted to open his eyes and look at him.
At this moment, Duan Hengye concentrated all his strength on his thin eyelids. However, even after trying for a long time, his eyes were still tightly shut.
From Meng Jinhuai's perspective, he saw Duan Hengye frowning. His eyes were tightly shut, but his eyeballs kept rolling around. It was obvious that he was trying to wake up but to no avail. Seeing this, Meng Jinhuai didn't wake him up again. After a while, Duan Hengye suddenly felt someone gently helping him up. Then, a hand touched his cheek.
Duan Hengye involuntarily gave up on opening his eyes. Instead, he used the strength of the hand on his cheek to slowly open his mouth. Taking advantage of this opportunity, a capsule fell into his mouth, followed by a small cup of warm water.
This person's action of feeding the medicine was not skillful, and Duan Hengye was obviously not a cooperative patient. Fortunately, the process of feeding the medicine didn't last too long. When Duan Hengye realized that he had just swallowed the LDK-300 clone drug, he was gently placed back on the bed.
The drug began to slowly take effect. As the pain in his body gradually weakened, Duan Hengye finally fell asleep.
A few hours later, Duan Hengye woke up, but at this moment, he wished he hadn't.
The quality of the LDK-300 cloning drug was very high. After waking up, Duan Hengye felt relaxed all over, as if the pain from before was just a dream.
As his body recovered, his thoughts gradually became clearer.
The facts that Duan Hengye didn't want to face, but he had to face them.
[How did Meng Jinhuai get the drugs from the LDK-300 Research Institute?] What did he have to do with this research institute? How should I explain to him about being poisoned?
Professor Duan, who was still lying on his bed with his eyes closed, painfully realized that compared to the research and development of mecha, communication between people was even more important.
Because his eyes were closed, Duan Hengye's hearing became more sensitive. After silently struggling in his heart for a moment, Duan Hangye suddenly realized that there should be someone else in the room besides him.
That person's breathing was very shallow, so normal people shouldn't be able to hear it. However, Duan Hangye's ability to sense his surroundings, which had been cultivated by practicing ancient martial arts for many years, was also slowly returning as his body recovered. Therefore, after he calmed down, he sensed the presence of another person in the room.
… Who is the person next to me? Duan Hengye felt like the answer to this question was a bit obvious.
Actually, pretending to be asleep wasn't an easy task. A person's facial expression and breathing frequency were different when they were awake and asleep. Most people would notice it if they paid a little attention, not to mention that the person was Meng Jinhuai …
Duan Hengye wasn't good at acting. Not to mention, after he woke up, he continued to close his eyes and think about things. He didn't deliberately pretend to be asleep.
After silently preparing himself for a few seconds, Duan Hengye finally opened his eyes little by little.
At this time, there was a light yellow floor lamp in the room. The warm light brought some warmth to the originally pure white ceiling. Although he hadn't seen Meng Jinhuai yet, just by relying on the warm light, Duan Hengye's mood couldn't help but calm down a little.
Then, he finally sat up from the bed and looked in the direction of the breathing sound.
The decoration of the House of the Marshal's room was very simple. There were almost no overly bright or depressing colors. At this time, Duan Hengye's blanket was light gray. When the warm yellow light shone on it, it gave a feeling of warmth just by looking at it.
The terrifying scene Duan Hengye imagined did not happen.
He saw that the usually high and mighty interstellar god Meng Jinhuai was lying on the bed with his arms crossed. It seemed like he had fallen asleep. Nan zhuxing's temperature was not high these days, so Duan Hengye's blanket was a little thick. Now, Meng Jinhuai's arm was pressing on a corner of the blanket. From Duan Hengye's perspective, half of Meng Jinhuai's body was hidden under the soft, cloud-like blanket.
His heart, which had been beating rapidly due to nervousness, suddenly calmed down. Duan Hangye, who was sitting on the bed, hesitated for a moment before slowly extending his hand towards Meng Jinhuai.
He gently patted the Marshal's shoulder. The soft feeling of the sweater spread from Duan Hengye's fingertips all the way to his heart. Meng Jinhuai, who was used to the stressful life of war, had always been a light sleeper. The moment he was touched by Duan Hengye, he opened his eyes.
Suddenly awakened from his sleep, Meng Jinhuai's eyes unconsciously became alert. His gaze was very aggressive, just like a predatory big cat. The moment he saw the look in Meng Jinhuai's eyes, Duan Hengye, who had not retracted his hand, was shocked. Then, his whole body froze.
In just a moment, Meng Jinhuai put away the hostility in his eyes. He smiled at Duan Hangye, and then slowly held his hand that was hanging there.
Duan Hengye finally realized that his body temperature was really low. When Duan Hengye held his hand tightly, warmth instantly surrounded him. No matter how scary the other party's eyes were, the fact was … Duan Hengye was reluctant to part with the warmth of his fingertips.
"Do you feel better?"
Duan Hengye's identity was very troublesome, and he unintentionally had a lot of secrets. Ever since he transmigrated into this world, Duan Hengye had thought countless times about what he would face when one of his secrets was discovered …
But he never thought that after discovering the LDK-300, the first thing Meng Jinhuai said to him was, "Do you feel better?"
Help! Looking at Meng Jinhuai's concerned face, Duan Hengye realized … that he actually felt even more guilty.
Duan Hangye, who had already mustered up some courage to face him, once again swallowed the words at the tip of his tongue. He glanced at Meng Jinhuai and continued, "… Alright. Uh … Don't sit here and sleep. "
Duan Hengye was practically raised on his own. He was not used to being taken care of. When he saw the Marshal lying on the bed sleeping, Duan Hengye could not help but feel an indescribable sense of guilt. After hearing his words, Meng Jinhuai stood up from the bed.
He looked at Duan Hengye and said, "It's good that you've recovered. It's still early, rest well. I'm going next door, remember to call me if you need anything. "
After that, Meng Jinhuai walked over and gently touched his forehead. Then, he got up and prepared to walk out of the room. Duan Hengye did not know what system Meng Jinhuai activated. When Meng Jinhuai stood up, the floor lamp in the room also dimmed. His eyes, which were used to the light, were not used to the darkness. He could not see anything clearly.
But in the darkness, Duan Hengye suddenly felt some courage. He suddenly said, "You know about the LDK-300 …"
When Meng Jinhuai heard Duan Hengye's words, he stopped walking and said, "Mhmm." After hearing the affirmative answer, Duan Hengye's hands slowly clenched into fists. He began to think about what to say next. However, before Duan Hengye could organize his words, he heard Meng Jinhuai say, "The owner behind the LDK-300 is Nan zhuxing."
… The owner behind the LDK-300 is Nan zhuxing?
The … owner behind it.
Okay, the truth is out.
Duan Hengye sat on the bed and couldn't help but feel like he was going to collapse. How did he choose Meng Jinhuai? When Duan Hengye was investigating the pharmaceutical research institute on the Star Web, the criteria in his heart were: strong enough to hide well enough.
Now that he thought about it, the research institute secretly funded by the military just happened to meet these two criteria.
Previously, it was mentioned in the book, Nan zhuxing was currently the largest force in the Yetian Empire. In addition to military strength, he was also secretly involved in various industries in the empire. Duan Hengye was too confident in his understanding of the plot. Because there was no specific plot in the book, he subconsciously ignored this matter.
Night was a magical time. After knowing who the owner of the LDK-300 was, Duan Hengye took a deep breath. He felt like he could no longer pretend that he didn't know that Meng Jinhuai knew his identity as a spy.
"I —" Duan Hengye mustered up his courage and was ready to speak directly.
But at the same time, Meng Jinhuai's footsteps, which had paused for a long time, were heard once again. The general walked to the door and said, "Rest well, night is not a good time to talk. If you have anything to say, think about it tomorrow."
After that, Meng Jinhuai walked out of the bedroom and the door slowly closed automatically. Duan Hengye, who was already used to the darkness, finally saw the furnishings in the room. He sat on the bed for a long time before finally lying down slowly. However, he couldn't fall asleep that night.
Yesterday, when Duan Hengye was unconscious, Yu Xinlan mentioned to Meng Jinhuai that if they wanted to completely suppress the discussion on the Star Web, they still needed Duan Hengye to come forward personally. In the morning, the news that Duan Hengye had woken up spread. Yu Xinlan, who had just finished a battle and was on vacation, volunteered to help Duan Hengye publish a video bulletin on the Star Web.
By the way, Dongfang Hewen and Dongfang You also came with Yu Xinlan.
In fact, logically speaking, when the general's spouse recovered, people in the military should come to greet them. However, Duan Hengye's cold reputation had spread throughout the interstellar. In the end, only the general and Dongfang You, who was a hardcore fan of Duan Hengye, came.
In the book "Overturning the Stars", everyone whose name was mentioned had a good appearance. For example, Yu Xinlan, when she usually wore the military uniform, she looked valiant, but when she changed into her daily clothes, she had a charming temperament.
Her long dark red hair was tied into a high ponytail, which was rare. Yu Xinlan wore a white long-sleeved T-shirt and jeans. At first glance, she looked like a college graduate.
Since a long time ago, Yu Xinlan had stopped shooting daggers at him from time to time like before. Although now the atmosphere between the two, or one could say the one-sided atmosphere had eased. But as a person who couldn't hide things on her face, after seeing Duan Hengye, Yu Xinlan couldn't help but show a little embarrassed expression.
Dongfang Hewen seemed to have other things to do. After briefly seeing Duan Hengye, he left first. Yu Xinlan, who was left behind, was embarrassed for a while, and then she finally became serious and switched to work mode. She turned on the optical computer and began to introduce to Duan Hengye the steps of uploading the video announcement on the Star Network and the confirmation process.
At this time, Dongfang You, who had followed them, finally blinked and asked, "Professor Duan, are you feeling better?" The little girl's voice was soft, not to mention that she deliberately softened her tone at this time.
At this time, Duan Hengye was sitting on the sofa, silently organizing the words in his heart. After hearing Dongfang You's question, he reached out and touched the top of the other's head, and then he couldn't help but soften his tone and said, "Much better, I scared you yesterday."
After hearing Duan Hengye's words, Dongfang You was a lot happier, and then began to chat with him about various childish topics. Perhaps the speaker didn't mean it, but the listener did. After Duan Hengye's voice fell, Yu Xinlan, who was busy, suddenly stopped the work at hand.
Although Duan Hengye was still indifferent when he spoke, she could feel that it was different from before … Duan Hengye's words just now were warm.
Yu Xinlan was originally an outgoing person who didn't care about trifles. After the initial awkwardness disappeared, she suddenly inexplicably joined in the chat with Dongfang You.
It was okay if General Yu didn't speak, but once she spoke, Duan Hengye found that she was actually a chatterbox.
Perhaps it was because Yu Xinlan had automatically switched to a non-working mode, but the moment he opened his mouth, he ran off in a strange direction. After Duan Hengye finished the statement according to the process arranged by the military headquarters, she sat on the sofa and talked to Duan Hengye about Meng Jinhuai's past …
"… The marshal is probably ten years younger than me. When I first met him, he was in the military headquarters. Because of my good spiritual power, although I was young at that time, I was lucky to be transferred to General Luo's side. " Yu Xinlan sat on another sofa and recalled. General Luo in her words was Meng Jinhuai's mother.
Seeing Yu Xinlan began to talk, Dongfang You was also very curious and sat on the side to listen patiently.
Yu Xinlan silently looked at Duan Hengye and said, "In fact, when the marshal was young, he was quite like you now. On the surface, he didn't seem to care about anything, and I didn't see him smile. In fact, I can also understand that no matter what kind of talent he has, it can't hide the fact that he is still a child on the battlefield. "While speaking, Yu Xinlan crossed her hands behind her head, looking very leisurely. Although the relationship between them used to be subtle, at this time, the other party's state gave Duan Hengye the illusion that he was chatting with an old friend.
It was just that Yu Xinlan's words made Duan Hengye somewhat surprised. After all, in his impression, Meng Jinhuai was never a person who "didn't care about anything". Now Yu Xinlan was talking about a completely unfamiliar Meng Jinhuai, a young marshal who had never been described in the book …
Yu Xinlan continued to recall, "In fact, if the old marshal and General Luo were still alive, the marshal might have been like this all the time. But their sudden sacrifice … The marshal had to mature quickly. He had to learn to face the cruel adult world by himself. So it's ironic that he began to learn to smile after that. "
When his parents were alive, Meng Jinhuai could still be a little capricious and close himself. But when the only cover left him, Meng Jinhuai had to learn to quickly forget the sadness and become the patron saint of others.
"Maturity" was a cruel thing, Duan Hengye suddenly felt so.
She didn't know whether Dongfang You understood or not. After Yu Xinlan finished speaking, she slowly supported her head with her hands and looked deeply at the other party.
"During that time, the marshal had a very bad time. On the one hand, the old marshal's sudden sacrifice. He carried the lives of countless people on his shoulders. On the other hand, there were cold eyes from the royal family or other former clingers. " Speaking of this, Yu Xinlan paused, then glanced at Duan Hengye and said, "At that time, he met you at the banquet."
Unlike Yu Xinlan and Dongfang He Wen who were on a semi-vacation, after the war, Meng Jinhuai was still busy with work. Duan Hengye didn't see the marshal for the whole day. This frequency of meeting should have been the norm between the two, but somehow, Duan Hengye was not in the mood today.
Duan Hengye didn't know how many times he turned on the optical computer. Looking at the data and models on the screen, Duan Hengye didn't have the slightest interest in working. After realizing that he was not in the mood to do business today, Duan Hengye opened the video statement issued by the military headquarters and the comments below.
However, if a person was absent-minded, they wouldn't be able to do anything well. After reading the comments for a long time, Duan Hengye realized that he didn't get any information at all. Then … Duan Hangye, who was rarely in such a state, finally turned off the optical computer completely.
He sat on the sofa and began to ponder over a cup of tea.
Duan Hengye's strange state of mind today actually came from Yu Xinlan's words in the morning. After repeatedly replaying the other party's words in his mind, a thought that had been ignored for a long time emerged in Duan Hangye's mind.
Since he decided to tell the truth, then … should he divorce the marshal?
Ever since Duan Hengye transmigrated, he had this thought in his mind. At that time, he wanted to divorce for his own safety, but now … he felt that he shouldn't continue to occupy this position.
Although he looked very cold on the surface, as an otaku, Duan Hengye also had an emotional side in his heart.
For example, after experiencing a series of events, Duan Hengye was very aware that he had a tendency to become a fangirl of the marshal … For example, Duan Hengye began to involuntarily care about Meng Jinhuai's work and began to want this "character" to have a "happy ending".
In Duan Hengye's eyes, this "happy ending" not only included his career, but also Meng Jinhuai finally being able to be together with someone who truly loved him.
Although Duan Hengye wasn't completely clear about his relationship with the original owner, he knew that his feelings for Meng Jinhuai were very complicated, mixed with caution and use. And … … Meng Jinhuai's love for the original owner of the body had already been completely erased.
When Duan Hengye thought of this, he couldn't help but feel sour in his heart.
After thinking for a while, he decided that he might as well directly send a divorce request to Meng Jinhuai today. However, Duan Hengye, who was clear about the intergalactic situation, knew that the divorce must not be leaked. The two of them only needed to secretly reach an agreement. This wouldn't hinder the future cooperation between Nan Zhuxing and the Mecha Research Institute.
Sometimes, illness made people involuntarily childish and impulsive.
And in this "intoxicated" and self-moved atmosphere, Duan Hangye finally did something that left him speechless no matter how he thought about it.
Professor Duan took out his optical computer and used a template to draft a secret divorce agreement, then directly sent it to Meng Jinhuai.
On the other side of Nan Zhuxing's House of the Marshal, Meng Jinhuai, who had just finished a day of work, closed the last document. He looked at the time on the corner of the screen and decided to go to the residential area to see Duan Hengye.
And at this time … a document with a "surprise" suddenly appeared in the corner of Meng Jinhuai's optical computer. He didn't want to look at the document, but after seeing the sender label, Meng Jinhuai sat back down and opened the document.
Silence, more silence.
After repeatedly reading this document several times, Meng Jinhuai finally realized that in addition to the mecha field, Duan Hengye might have a different way of thinking than ordinary people.
When he told Duan Hengye to "think about it tomorrow" last night, he definitely didn't expect that Duan Hengye would send him such a "surprise".
The Marshal threw the document directly into the optical computer's garbage disposal box, then clicked on Yu Xinlan's contact ID. What did she say to Duan Hengye today?
At the same time, on the other side of Nan Zhuxing, Yu Xinlan was sitting leisurely in her home watching a soap opera on her optical computer. She suddenly sneezed. Strange, how did she catch a cold when she was so fit? This isn't normal.
