Jane was carried away, and Georgia was taken back to her office by Chu Rong.

Although the Xiang family's training ground and Chu Rong's office area both belong to the military, they are quite far apart. When Chu Rong rushed over, he drove a mecha, and when he went back, he chose a hovercraft because he was holding Georgia.

"Change your wet clothes first." Chu Rong touched the back of Georgia's head and was very dissatisfied with the wet hair he felt.

Nestled in the familiar embrace, Georgia slowly calmed down. Hearing the words, she nodded obediently but did not move. Her eyes were slightly straight and she was in a daze.

Chu Rong looked down at him, frowned and touched his head, knowing that he was still a little dazed after being frightened, so he simply took out the black dagger that Georgia gave him from the space button.

After carefully cutting open the training suit, Georgia's fair and delicate skin was exposed in large areas. Chu Rong paused, turned his head to look away, groped to tear off his clothes, then took out a large blanket to wrap him, and moved his hands down to tear off his trousers which were also stained with sweat and stuck to his body at a faster speed.

After stripping him down to his shorts, he took out a towel and wiped Georgia's sweaty hair until his hair stood up in a funny way. Only then did he finally feel a little relaxed. He bent down to kiss his eyes and whispered, "He's back to life."

After being tormented like this, Georgia finally regained her consciousness. She stared at him blankly for a few seconds, and suddenly realized her current state. She quickly curled up her limbs and grabbed the blanket tightly, then burrowed into his arms again with her hedgehog-like hair, shaking her head stupidly.

"Don't be so reckless next time." Chu Rong hugged him across the blanket. Thinking of the sudden panic he felt when he received the news, he wished he could keep the person in his arms under his eyes forever.

"I'm sorry." Georgia said sullenly, and the whole person became listless. She said: "Jane must know that there is something wrong with my power. Although he has lost consciousness, a part of the magic power will remain after entering the body. It will take some time for it to completely dissipate. He must have noticed it. I also fed him so many potions... I'm sorry, I got into trouble..."

I was too anxious to care about many things when I was saving people, but now that I have calmed down, I feel that there are problems everywhere. That Jian is strange, and he is from the Empire. It is really bad that such a person discovered my secret.

"Chu Rong, will I implicate you?"

He couldn't help but look up, looking at Chu Rong with worry and self-blame, imagining all kinds of situations in which Chu Rong was spied on by the people of the empire because of his special power. The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, and he nervously reached out from the blanket and grabbed his clothes.

The blanket was only loosely wrapped to begin with, and when he loosened his hands and stretched out his arms, the blanket actually slid down, revealing his body in only a pair of shorts.

Chu Rong swallowed back all the words of comfort that were about to come out of his mouth, and quickly stretched out his arms to wrap his body in his arms to block most of the spring light, then bent down to pick up the blanket and wrapped him again, frowning and said: "Don't think too much, it's not that serious, sit still and don't move."

Georgia passively lay on his chest, their bodies pressed together, separated only by a thin layer of summer military uniform fabric. He clearly sensed Chu Rong's suddenly accelerated heartbeat and slightly elevated body temperature. He was stunned for a moment before suddenly understanding, his ears and face flushed, he slightly propped himself up, lowered his head, and looked at a certain part under his buttocks.

So here is…

"Just try lowering your head."

A chilly sound sounded above my head, and then my ears were pinched threateningly.

Unable to lower her head, and her slightly obscene intention was discovered by the other party, Georgia's body stiffened, her ears twitched, and she stretched out her arms to hug his neck, pushing hard into his arms, feeling a little shy and inexplicably happy.

Chu Rong felt that the air conditioning in the hovercraft was not turned on enough, so he stretched out his arm to hold him down to prevent him from moving. He hugged him tightly with a blanket and put him aside, keeping at least an arm's length away from him. He scolded him with a dark face, "Don't rub against me. Put on clean clothes first."

"You like me." Georgia was still teasing him recklessly. She couldn't even sit still. Her exposed toes moved. Her eyes drifted towards him dishonestly. She added in a shy but extremely shameless voice: "Because you like me, you are like this... um..." So this is what mom meant when she said that your body will tell you who you love...

Chu Rong suddenly felt that he was being teased, and looked at Georgia with a deep look in his eyes - he was obviously a very "stupid" guy, but sometimes he would be like this, like this...

"Are you okay?" Georgia asked shyly, happily and embarrassedly.

Chu Rong's forehead veins popped, and he fiercely ordered: "Close your eyes!"

Georgia shook her head, moved her ears, smiled at him fearlessly, and said innocently: "But I need to change my clothes. I can't change if I close my eyes."

Is he getting bolder after being frightened? Or has he lost his mind?

Chu Rong looked at his naughty appearance with red face and moving ears, suddenly reached out and pressed his shoulders, pulled him to his side, then lowered his head and kissed him directly on the lips.

This time it was no longer a matter of separation upon contact, but rather he pried open the other person's teeth the moment they touched, and swept through the other person's mouth with an unyielding and tough attitude, hooking the other person's tongue, which was frozen and dared not move, to dance with him.

Georgia's eyes widened in shock, and she felt that her breathing and thoughts were all taken away by the other party's domineering and powerful actions. She could only be led by the other party passively.

Ending this "deep" contact with a kiss, Chu Rong stepped back, moved his hand on his shoulder, touched his flushed cheeks and lips that had become much redder, narrowed his eyes, and asked faintly: "Do you want to put on your clothes now, or do you want to continue?"

Rumble.

It was as if something exploded in her brain. Georgia looked straight at Chu Rong, who was squinting at her from above. She shyly lifted the blanket to hide herself, then turned around, took out her clothes and changed them obediently. She felt so embarrassed that her ears wanted to curl up.

It turns out that real kissing is like this. It's so, so embarrassing.

Chu Rong looked at him foolishly as he hid under the blanket to change clothes, curled his lips, leaned over and kissed the top of his head through the blanket.

Fan Xiangnan had received the news early and was waiting at the door. When he saw the black hovercraft approaching, he hurriedly took a few steps forward, waited for the other party to land safely, walked over and asked anxiously: "Commander, what's the situation, I--"

The car door opened, revealing first the scattered clothes and a rolled-up blanket on the floor, then Georgia with rosy lips and flushed face, and finally Chu Rong with messy clothes and hair.

We are all adults now, and it is difficult for Fan Xiangnan to control himself from thinking too much.

"Good afternoon, Brother Fan." Georgia got out of the car and greeted Fan Xiangnan. She tried to keep a normal expression, but shyness still showed in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.

"...Good afternoon." Fan Xiangnan greeted him back, then looked at Chu Rong, who had already gotten out of the car and put away the hovercraft, with a look of a beast in human clothing, and couldn't help but say, "Sir, Qiao has just come of age."

Chu Rong frowned when he heard this, looked at him in confusion, reached out and grabbed Georgia, and said as he walked inside: "Go get something to drink first."

Georgia whispered into his hand, "Actually, that's not necessary. I just drank some medicine and I'm not dehydrated."

"It's not up to you to decide whether you are dehydrated or not." Chu Rong shook him, strode into the elevator, and went to his own office on the top floor.

Fan Xiangnan who was left behind: “…” Ever since the relationship was made clear, the boss has become more and more “insolent”. Fortunately, he cleared the situation in advance, otherwise the boss’ image in front of his subordinates would be ruined.

This was Georgia's first time in Chu Rong's office area in the military. He was a little curious and looked around. Chu Rong let him go. After entering his office, he put him on the sofa, pointed in the direction of the bathroom, and said, "Go take a shower and relax."

Georgia wanted to refuse, but Chu Rong stopped her with a look, so she obediently got up and walked towards the bathroom.

Fan Xiangnan quickly came over with a drink. Chu Rong motioned him to put it down and asked, "Has the news spread? What are everyone's reactions?"

Although Xiang Kun intentionally blocked the news just now, Jane has been rescued, and he and Georgia were delayed on the road for a while. Now everyone who should know the news should have known it.

"It's spread. The news is that Jane suddenly fainted during training and was sent to the hospital in time and recovered. Before you came back, the President and Prince Ans had already set off to visit Jane in the medical room of the training ground. The Wei family and the Ning family also sent people to express their condolences, but there was nothing special." Fan Xiangnan put down the juice and replied, then asked, "Sir, what exactly happened this time?" So far, he only vaguely knew that something happened to Jane and it was related to Georgia, but he didn't know the details.

Chu Rong's tense expression relaxed a lot after hearing this - it seems that the Xiang family is planning to make a big deal out of this incident. Now it all depends on how Prince Ans will react after knowing the truth.

He had a plan in mind, and first briefly told Fan Xiangnan the cause and effect of the incident, then whispered a few instructions for the follow-up arrangements. When he heard a noise coming from the bathroom door, he stopped talking and waved his hand to signal Fan Xiangnan to leave.

Georgia came out with wet hair, and seeing that Chu Rong was the only one in the room, she asked in confusion: "I think I heard Brother Fan's voice, where is he?"

"I'm going to have dinner."

Chu Rong made up an excuse and pulled him over to sit down. He first stuffed the juice on the table into his hand, then took out a towel and a hair dryer to help him blow dry his hair.

Being taken care of so attentively, Georgia felt both touched and embarrassed. She lowered her head to take a sip of the sweet juice, and suddenly remembered what she had been worried about. She turned her head and asked, "By the way, Jane..."

"Don't move."

Chu Rong held his head to prevent him from turning around, and replied calmly: "Don't worry, there's nothing wrong over there. The Xiang family is in the wrong this time, so they dare not get involved. As for that Jian... From the fact that I haven't been harassed by the president yet, he didn't talk nonsense, and neither did the Xiang family."

Georgia felt a little relieved after hearing that, but still a little uneasy, and said, "What if Jane fell asleep and hasn't had time to tell me yet? And those potion bottles, I forgot to collect them just now, if someone picks them up..." There are bottles of advanced potions in there. Advanced potions are made purely from magic power, which is completely different from traditional pharmaceutical methods, and it is easy to have problems with research.

The hair was already dry. Chu Rong put away the hair dryer, took out eight empty potion bottles from the space button and put them on the table. He patted his head and said, "Don't be so careless in the future. Don't worry, I will send someone to keep an eye on Jian and make sure he doesn't talk nonsense. I'll take care of everything."

Georgia didn't expect him to be so thoughtful and remember to put the bottle away. After being stunned, she was surprised. Her anxiety eased a little and she said, "But..."

"No buts." Chu Rong rubbed his ears, sat down next to him and hugged him, preventing him from seeing the cold light in his eyes, and said affirmatively: "Jian is a smart man, he knows what to do to be most beneficial." And before confirming this, no one should think of knowing anything they shouldn't know from Jian's mouth.

The night slowly deepened, and visitors came and went. When the ward was completely quiet, Jane, who had been pretending to be asleep, opened her eyes, looked at the nurse who was standing in the corner and had no sense of existence, and said, "I'm not talking nonsense. Can you stop releasing the soothing potion?"

These potions were nothing to normal people, but for a weak person like him who had just experienced life and death, they were too torturous, and he didn't want to sleep at all now.

The nurse, who looked ordinary and harmless, raised her eyelids and glanced at him indifferently, then stood up and turned off a small device in her pocket. Then she walked to the bedside and reached out to make a few settings on the operating device on the bedside.

A protective shield slowly rose above the bed, covering Jane completely. Jane looked around curiously and asked, "Are you Marshal Chu's man? Is he going to kill me to silence me?"

The nurse looked at him again, and suddenly threw him a communicator with a flashing call prompt, then turned off the protective shield completely, switched it to opaque mode, and walked to the door of the ward to stand guard.

Jian glanced at the protective shield that tightly wrapped him around him, answered the call, and sure enough, he saw Chu Rong sitting in a heavily decorated study room.

He struggled to sit up - he didn't like being outdone during negotiations.

"Your father's name is Feng. He appeared in the empire twenty years ago. He was a good friend of the current king's second brother, Prince Anlun. After the war ten years ago, he was specially appointed as the national teacher for his contribution in rescuing the king and the people. He was deeply trusted by the king." Chu Rong closed the information in his hand, looked at Jian with a calm expression, and said with a sneer on his face: "But Prince Anlun was unfortunately sacrificed in the Zerg raid, even with all his guards."

Jane's eyes moved, and she suddenly laughed and asked, "Why did the Marshal suddenly mention this?"

Chu Rong observed his expression, pulled the corner of his mouth coldly, threw away the information and said: "Jane, there are only two options before you now, shut up on your own initiative, or shut up forever."

He didn't follow his rhythm at all.

Jian sighed in his heart, put away the smile on his face, and returned to his usual expressionless look. He said, "Marshal Chu, you don't have to be too nervous. I have no ill will towards Georgia. On the contrary, I still rely on him to survive. Believe me, I don't want people to find out about the special power of his even more than you do."

"What do you know? How do you know it?" Chu Rong was not fooled by him and asked the key point directly.

This Jane was obviously coming for Georgia, and all the clues pointed to one thing - this Jane had long known about Georgia's special powers, and everything she did was just to get close to Georgia and force him to rescue people.

The so-called repayment of a favor was probably another plot. He hated the feeling of being spied on and plotted against by others so unscrupulously, even if the plot might not be malicious.

Jane was helpless. The man Georgia found was really stubborn and had very little patience. He didn't follow any of the negotiation tactics and forcefully controlled the initiative and rhythm of the topic and only said what he wanted to say.

He suddenly wanted to sleep again.

"The Marshal specifically mentioned Prince Anlun. I guess he has already guessed that there was something wrong with Prince Anlun's death, and it was somewhat related to my father. But I must clarify my position on this matter." He compromised and opened his hospital gown, wiped his thin chest, pointed to a fiery red mark that slowly appeared on it, and said, "Actually, I am Prince Anlun's son."

Chu Rong frowned and his expression became serious.

The spiritual power imprint is a unique symbol of the imperial royal family. It can only be passed down from father to child. The imprinting method is very special. The specific method is only known to the main line of the imperial royal family, and others cannot spy on it. Moreover, this fiery red mark is indeed the royal seal pattern of Prince Anlun.

He did find some information and guessed that the national teacher might have betrayed Prince Anlun back then. He helped the current king get rid of Prince Anlun, the thorn in his side. However, he did not expect that the truth was far more complicated than he guessed. It turned out that the national teacher's son was Anlun's bloodline. There might be a deeper secret behind what happened back then.

"Secrets exchanged, now the Marshal should believe my sincerity." Jane wiped his chest again, and the mark disappeared. He buttoned up his hospital gown again, looked at him and said, "Marshal, do you have anything else to say? I want to go to bed."

"Yes." Chu Rong leaned back in his chair and asked again, "What do you know? How did you know it? What is your purpose in approaching Georgia?"

“…” Jane felt like cursing.

Even with such explosive news, this marshal was not distracted by it. What's wrong with his brain?

"It seems that you want to choose to shut up forever." Chu Rong once again showed his poor patience. He frowned and said irritably: "I don't like the twists and turns of you smart people. If possible, I prefer to use absolute strength and force to solve problems. The national teacher who raised you doesn't have any real power. It is not difficult for me to wipe out such a person." Moreover, unlike Jian's SS-level mental power qualification, the thin national teacher with black hair and black eyes has a mental power level of only A, and it is a piece of cake to kill him.

Jian's expression faded, and the indifferent aura that had always been faintly on her body also disappeared. Her dark eyes looked at Chu Rong straight in the eyes, and there seemed to be a coldness flowing in them.

"Your current mood is exactly how I felt when you were plotting against Georgia." Chu Rong looked at him, not giving in at all: "Jane, you should understand that a person who holds the king's power will be eliminated by the king sooner or later. I don't have to do it myself."

Jane tightened her hands on the quilt, lowered her eyes, and was silent for a few seconds before looking up. She regained her composure and said, "My father, the one who raised me, has some special powers just like Georgia. But his powers can only be used at the cost of his life. A year ago, he figured out a way to prolong my life at the cost of his blindness."

Chu Rong felt relieved and tapped the table with his fingers - it seemed that the old king's health began to deteriorate a year ago. It was also one year, such a coincidental time difference... So the reason why the national teacher had been able to sit firmly in the position of national teacher for so many years and was still trusted by the king was because the national teacher had been using his own life to find a way to prolong the king's life?

A year ago, for the sake of his adopted son's life, the national teacher chose to use his power on his adopted son and gave up the king. So the king's move to search for pharmacists may not be to find a real pharmacist, but a substitute for the national teacher.

In this case, the position of the national teacher should no longer be stable.

After all the clues and speculations went around in his mind, Chu Rong's coldness finally subsided a little. He took out a small medicine box and placed it on the table, saying, "Your adoptive father sent you here, firstly to keep you alive, and secondly to get you out of the king's clutches and keep you safe."

Jane's eyes immediately fell on the medicine box - after using it himself, he certainly understood the significance of this box.

"I can provide this to you, and let your adoptive father use this as a cover to continue to 'extend' the king's life, and protect your adoptive father's position and safety as the national teacher." Chu Rong threw out the bait, and seeing Jian's eyes widened unconsciously, he knew that he guessed right, and continued: "In exchange, I will put a mental lock in your brain to ensure that you will not reveal anything about Georgia."

"I promise!" Jian agreed immediately. As it was about his family, he finally lost his composure and said anxiously, "As long as my father's life can be saved, I will agree to anything you ask."

Chu Rong was very satisfied with his reaction and replied: "Of course this is the best. In addition, I want to know why Prince Anlun was murdered by the king."

Jane shuddered and pursed her lips.

"I'll only give you one minute to think about it. Everyone knows that I don't have a very good patience." Chu Rong looked at him leisurely and dialed the communicator on his wrist: "Time is precious, think it through."

Jane struggled for a while, looked up at him, opened her lips and closed them again, and finally spoke when a minute was almost up: "My biological father was killed by the king when he was secretly investigating something. He suspected... black holes, in fact, we prefer to call them wormholes. He suspected that their appearance was not due to the unknown of the universe, but... man-made."

It was as if a key called "truth" suddenly fell on Chu Rong's head. Chu Rong paused, and then his expression changed drastically. Thinking of his parents and relatives who died in the war, his spiritual power unconsciously surged, and he said in a deep voice: "Do you understand what you are saying?"

Jane blinked, looked him straight in the face, raised her voice slightly, and said, "How can I not understand? Marshal, haven't you been investigating these things over the years? Have you found any clues about the ship abandoned by my biological father on the mining planet?"

The tangled ball of thread was finally pulled out of a thread. Chu Rong slowly relaxed his tightened palms, suppressed his mental strength, and looked at him for a long time. Suddenly, he restrained all his emotions and said, "I need to have a good talk with your adoptive father, the state teacher who seems to be able to calculate a lot of things."

After a good night's sleep at home, Georgia was personally sent to the training ground by Chu Rong the next day. He learned from him that Jane had lost her memory, probably because her brain had been deprived of oxygen for too long. Not to mention what happened yesterday, she couldn't even remember what happened a year ago. Her self-awareness was also a little confused.

Georgia felt both relieved and worried when she heard this. Although she felt that Jane was a little strange and made her feel wary of him, she was the one who was rescued by her own hands after all. Knowing that he was still injured for this, she couldn't help feeling a little sad.

"If only I had been more decisive and saved him earlier..." He lowered his head, feeling depressed.

Chu Rong patted his head soothingly and said, "It's not your fault. It was the Xiang family doctor who came too late. You have done your best."

"...Yeah." Georgia nodded, forcing herself to cheer up, and said, "But it's a good thing that we weren't discovered. I'm sorry, I was too careless this time. I will be more careful next time. By the way, those people who saw me saving people at that time..."

"I'll take care of everything. I'll also disclose to the public that the medicines you use are new products developed by the Xiang family." Chu Rong lowered his head and kissed his ear, then pinched his face, pointed at his lips, and said, "Did I help you a lot this time, huh?"

Georgia immediately understood his hint, her face flushed, her worries were washed away, she twitched her ears shyly, closed her eyes, and took the initiative to move forward.

Chu Rong curled his lips, lowered his head and hugged him tightly.

The person involved had lost his memory, and the Xiang family did not want to reveal the fact that their doctor arrived too late. The Chu family wanted to cover up the matter as soon as possible to avoid implicating Georgia, so the fact that Jane's heart stopped beating on the training ground was covered up with the simple excuse of "she was too weak to withstand the training and suddenly fainted."

The instructor who trained them was replaced for "failing to arrange the training intensity reasonably". The students who were cleared away were also specially comforted. The Xiang family army pretended to be frightened by Jian's fainting, and checked one by one whether the students had any invisible diseases, which invisibly diverted their attention.

Georgia's return caused a little commotion among the students, which was quickly suppressed by the newly appointed instructors.

Thanks to Jane's accident, the difficulty of this freshman training was slightly reduced, making the students feel lucky.

Chu Yan called during the break to inquire about the situation. Georgia comforted him. After hanging up the call, he found that Xiang Kun had been hovering around him, and when he looked over, he quickly looked away.

Three days later, Jian returned to the training ground with a pale face. The students were relieved and warmly applauded to welcome him back to the team. Xiang Kun, who was standing behind the crowd, carefully looked at Jian's complexion and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Then he glanced at Georgia, lowered his eyes, and silently moved away.

"I heard that it was you who saved me."

After losing his memory, Jane became much more cheerful. During the break, he took the initiative to approach Georgia, smiled at him, and said, "I will repay you. Do you like the 'Ilu' flower? It is the kind of flower that is difficult to survive but blooms beautifully. I can grow it and give you a pot."

Ilu? In the ancient common language system, Ilu also means "hometown".

Georgia was distracted for only a moment, and the bald appearance of Iluhua popped up in her mind. After a moment of silence, she nodded and said, "I like it. Iluhua is really beautiful. Thank you for your reward."

Jane laughed happily, suddenly moved closer to him, and whispered, "Then this is a secret between us, you can't tell anyone else."

Georgia was startled by his sudden approach and leaned back a little, thinking embarrassedly that this strange son of the national teacher seemed to have become much more childish after losing his memory.

Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered the stupid things he had done when he lost his memory. His face turned red, and he suddenly felt less afraid of Jane. He smiled like coaxing a child, nodded in agreement, and said, "Okay, this is our secret."

The training continued. Due to her health condition, the instructor allowed Jane to practice less. However, Jane refused to give up and still insisted on practicing with them for the whole day, but her pace was much slower than others. She would take the initiative to ask for a rest when she couldn't hold on any longer.

Everyone was moved by his "disabled but strong-willed" behavior and quickly became familiar with him.

Jane was very easy to get along with after losing her memory. Georgia slowly let down his guard and accepted this weak friend who came over on his own initiative. To be safe, he told Chu Rong about this matter. Chu Rong did not stop him, but just let him make friends according to his own wishes and not to worry about other things.

A month passed quickly, and during the final joint training phase, the Xiang family was unwilling to give up, and insisted on organizing an extra special training session for students with S-level physique and above.

Georgia completed it easily and got the first place in the special training. Chu Yan came in second and was successfully promoted to SS in physical fitness. Xiang Hui, who was watching the special training, was so angry that he turned his face away and left.

Jie Xiu ranked third, which at least saved some face for the empire. Surprisingly, Ling Yi from the Mecha Manufacturing Department actually got fourth place, surpassing Yuan Xiu, Liu Hongzi and other students from the Mecha Driving Department.

After the joint training was successfully completed, the warship carried the students back to the military academy. At this time, the campus, which had only received freshmen before they left, was now crowded with students from grades two to five.

After a day of rest, the weekend came. All the freshmen who lived nearby chose to go home, and Chu Yan and Georgia were also picked up by Chu Rong.

After a lively dinner, the Chu family went for a walk in the yard to digest the food. At this time, there was an obvious change in the team formation. Before, Chu Rong and Chu Huai walked in front, and Gu Yanan and the two children walked behind. Now, Chu Huai and Gu Yanan pulled Chu Yan to walk in front, and Chu Rong and Georgia walked behind.

"You value women over your brother." Chu Yan rolled his eyes angrily. Because he was tanned from training, the roll of his eyes looked particularly attractive.

Chu Huai patted him with a smile and said, "Didn't the second brother love you enough when you were a child? It's all because you were too naughty that you made the second brother like this. Well, don't bother them. The second brother will go to the empire in a few days. He and Georgia won't be able to see each other for a while. Let them talk more."

"What? Going to the Empire?" Chu Yan was surprised and asked anxiously, "What's going on? Why is my second brother going to the Empire? Is it to exchange hostages? That would be too uneconomical. I think it would be more cost-effective to send Xiang Kun there."

"What are you thinking about?" Chu Huai glanced at him and explained, "The second brother went to deal with some border issues. We have several mineral planets that are close to the empire's territory. Now we are preparing to mine them. The noise will be a bit loud, and we are afraid that the empire will misunderstand and cause friction, so we have to go and give a heads-up in advance."

Chu Yan calmed down after hearing that. He curled his lips in boredom and muttered, "What a hassle. The mining planet is obviously ours, but we still have to inform our neighbors before mining. What did our ancestors think? When they occupied the planet, why did they occupy the one near the border? It brings us a lot of trouble."

Chu Huai and Gu Yan'an looked at each other after hearing this, then shook their heads and laughed - what a stupid brother.

Behind the three of them, Chu Rong and Georgia also happened to talk about going to the empire.

"How long will it take for you to come back?" Georgia held Chu Rong's hand, her face full of reluctance.

Chu Rong interlocked his fingers with his, squeezed them soothingly, and replied, "I don't know the longest, but the shortest is ten days. It depends on the current situation of the empire. The old king is in poor health, and several adult princes are playing games with each other. If I go there, I might be held back."

Georgia became more and more worried, and asked stubbornly, "Can I not go?"

Chu Rong let go of his hand, stopped walking, turned around, brushed his bangs, shook his head, and said, "Qiao, next year's presidential election will come, and the Xiang and Wei families don't seem to be planning to support a puppet other than the four major families. They are planning to choose someone from their own family to take the position. If it really comes to that, the Chu family will have to fight for that position. This year is already halfway through, and it's time to start preparing."

This preparation naturally includes military strength. The Chu family's flagship has not been repaired yet. If they want to withstand the suppression from the Xiang and Wei families and sit in that position, it is essential to improve their strength in other military aspects. To improve other aspects, sufficient mineral reserves are necessary.

Georgia didn't quite understand the struggle for power, but she was very clear about the importance of minerals. Knowing that Chu Rong's trip was a foregone conclusion, she pursed her lips, stretched out her arms to hug him, and whispered, "I will miss you."

"Just thinking about me is not enough." Chu Rong hugged him back and suddenly whispered in his ear.

Georgia twitched her ears and looked up at him in confusion.

"Qiao." Chu Rong looked back, bent down and touched his forehead to his, and said, "You are already an adult. When I come back, you will be officially engaged to me, okay?"

Georgia's eyes widened, her heartbeat quickened unconsciously, and she stammered, "Engagement?"

"Yes, you are still too young, so let's get engaged first, and we can wait until you graduate to get married." Chu Rong raised his hand and touched his face, and said slowly: "Being a fiancé is not just an announcement to the public verbally. I want you to stand by my side officially, so are you willing?"

Georgia suddenly remembered a lot of things, including his parents who were still in his hometown, his uneasiness when he first arrived here, and his origin from the black hole. His thoughts were in a mess, and he was about to say no, but looking at Chu Rong's serious eyes, he said something else: "I do."

He heard his own voice and saw the satisfaction and joy that instantly lit up Chu Rong's eyes. His thoughts slowly settled down. He buried his head in his chest, tightened his arms, and closed his eyes: "I do."

With such deep love, of course he is willing to be with the other person for the rest of his life, but... it would be nice if his parents were around, and if he could go back to his hometown to visit.

"I will try my best." He whispered in a firm and serious tone.

As long as he works hard, he will definitely find the way home. Once he finds the way, he will bring Chu Rong back to see his parents, and then he will be with Chu Rong forever, never to be separated again, just like his father and mother.

Chu Rong curled his lips when he heard this, gently rubbed his ear, and said, "What's the point of working hard for this, stupid."

For the next two days, Georgia locked herself in the laboratory. No matter how Chu Rong shouted, Georgia would not come out. He even secretly welded the door shut with a large piece of ore, so that it could not be opened. Chu Rong was afraid of hurting someone if he forced his way in, so he almost demolished the main house.

On Sunday afternoon, Georgia walked out of the laboratory covered in dust and sweat, and handed Chu Rong a mecha weapon dagger and a whole box of advanced potions.

"I wanted to make you another double-barreled cannon, but it exploded. I failed." He said dejectedly, and took out the ball from his pocket, stuffed it into his hand, and said: "I'll give the ball to you. Treat it well and don't scare it. It's very obedient. You can feed it with potions."

As soon as Qiuqiu got into Chu Rong's hands, he pretended to be dead, and secretly stretched out a vine to hook Georgia's wrist tightly, silently expressing his position that he did not want to leave his dear master.

"I'll wait for you to come back."

Georgia pinched the ball, asking it to retract its vines, and then threw herself into Chu Rong's arms.

Chu Rong's anger disappeared in an instant, leaving only heartache in his heart. He immediately hugged him tightly, ruffled his hair, frowned and scolded him: "Don't do this again in the future. Look at the dark circles under your eyes... Go take a shower first, and then go to bed."

"You sleep with me." Georgia made the condition pitifully.

Chu Rong's heart softened and his face darkened. He picked him up and took him to the room.

After washing him, Chu Rong put him on the bed. He lay on top of him and hugged him. He found that he was obviously very sleepy but was still forcing himself to open his eyes.
