Chapter 423

Theo later ignored the owner of his phone and continued chatting with Yuan, whom he had just met.

Ying Chenlin took a long shower, and You Su almost went to knock on the door, but he came out not long after.

After taking a shower, Ying Chenlin was wearing loose pajamas, his skin was a little red from the heat. As soon as he came out, he was busy organizing the supernatural crystal gift that You Su gave him. You Su was standing nearby, and he also told someone the origin and effect of each energy crystal.

Ying Chenlin listened at first, but later he heard that You Su could tell every single energy crystal.

"How do you know everything? Remember everything?" Ying Chenlin had received energy crystals many times, but never in such detail as this time.

"I've only been away for two years. I'm not old enough to forget things." You Su noticed Ying Chenlin's gaze and stopped swiping the light brain. "I asked for you. I sent you the text version. Didn't you read it?"

After listening to this, Ying Chenlin quickly found the optical computer that was flooded with supernatural crystals, and began to carefully look through the chat records between the two of them over the past two years.

You Su sent a lot of messages to Ying Chenlin, and it was impossible to read them all in a short time. You Su had just finished talking to Ying Chenlin when he saw him turn on the video and turn the volume up to the maximum.

He didn't think too much when he sent it, but when his voice echoed 360 degrees in the room, You Su had the urge to snatch the laptop from Ying Chenlin's hand, "Do you want to turn up the volume so loud?"

Ying Chenlin: "The sound was too low when you recorded it."

You Su paused, glanced at the screen in Ying Chenlin's hand, which was when he was filming the beast tide: "Just watch the video, what's so good about my voice?"

Ying Chenlin continued to watch the video: "It was too quiet. I didn't hear this part."

The sound became a bit numb at the end. Sometimes, if Ying Chenlin didn't hear clearly, he would ask You Su again in person. You Su was wondering why he felt that Ying Chenlin was a man of few words just now. The way this man asked was almost like asking him to repeat what he said in the video.

When You Su was about to walk to the sofa with the pillow in his hand, Ying Chenlin, who was sitting on the bed and playing You Su's message on the loudspeaker, suddenly looked up. The two of them looked at each other across the 1.8-meter-wide bed, and finally stopped at the pillow that You Su was holding.

You Su couldn't walk anymore, and he didn't know how to explain that he wanted to sleep on the sofa.

Ying Chenlin: "Brother, where are you going?"

You Su: "Change to the side you sleep on. I'm not used to sleeping on the left side."

Ying Chenlin understood. When he went to stay at You Su's place during holidays before, he didn't notice that You Su had this habit. He had no choice but to move and give the seat on his left side to You Su.

The supernatural crystal on the bed was put away. One person had been through more than half a month of Star Alliance competition, and the other had not slept well at the border. When his head was stuck to the pillow, he should have felt sleepy, but You Su found that he could not sleep because there was someone lying next to him who was still looking at a laptop.

As time dragged on to midnight, the lights in the room dimmed.

Ying Chenlin had only read the chat history from a year ago. He read every message sent by You Su, and occasionally heard You Su talking to his comrades. Some short and missed messages were transmitted to Ying Chenlin's ears through sound, intermittently.

He was just about to finish reading it when he suddenly heard his comrade say something to You Su.

Ying Chenlin paused for a moment as he was about to turn off the computer and pulled the progress bar back again.

Boy friend……?

You Su is watching the group.

The comrades were still chatting in the chat group, and some people even sent Ying Chenlin’s game highlights to the group and @You Su. You Su saved all the video footage and called another person in the group. He was chatting with his comrades to divert his attention. About ten minutes later, he suddenly noticed that the person lying next to him was approaching him. As soon as You Su turned his head, he saw Ying Chenlin leaning against his shoulder.

"Which video didn't you hear clearly?" You Su asked.

Ying Chenlin: “I can hear it clearly.”

Just as You Su was about to speak, Ying Chenlin suddenly leaned over, his eyes motionless.

Being so close, You Su could clearly feel Ying Chenlin's breathing.

"Brother, you don't need to remove the scar, it's cool." Ying Chenlin suddenly said.

You Su paused for a moment, and after a while he realized that Ying Chenlin was looking at his laptop, "They are going."

"Oh." Ying Chenlin heard the answer and turned back to look at the computer.

A familiar playing sound came from his ears. You Su looked at the scar repair medical stations recommended in the group and flicked past the messages with a finger. By the time he saved the video sent by his comrades in the group, the computer next to him was still playing, but the person watching it had fallen asleep.

"Ying Chenlin?" You Su asked.

Ying Chenlin did not return.

You Su had no choice but to turn off his laptop and put it on the table beside him. He had just laid down and had not fallen asleep yet when the person next to him leaned over slightly, as if he was like when he was a child, when he liked to curl up in a ball when he slept and liked to stay close to people.

But when the other person's hand accidentally rested on his body, You Su's calmness disappeared, and all that was left was the sound of his increasingly excited heartbeat. You Su never realized this problem one day, because he got along too well with Ying Chenlin. He treated him as his younger brother when they were young, and in the blink of an eye, his younger brother grew up and became something beyond his imagination.

But when he knew it, he knew he was finished.

Late in the night, You Su went to the sofa.

Not long after he left, Ying Chenlin on the bed opened his eyes slightly. The sleepiness in his eyes dissipated a little, and his gaze was looking at the man sitting on the sofa in the distance.

After Ying Chenlin finished his work for the Star Alliance Tournament, You Su went to the Star Alliance headquarters to report on his work.

During the few days of separation from Ying Chenlin, You Su thought that the few days of reporting on his work would help him calm down, but he found that not only did he not calm down, he also watched the game videos of Ying Chenlin in the past two years on Star Network. His mind became even more restless, and he even opened the chat history with Ying Chenlin to watch them.

It's rare that Ying Chenlin hasn't contacted You Suo in the past few days.

There is at least one piece of news at the border every week, but once you cross the border, there is no news for five days in a row.

Every time You Su opened the chat history, the messages only stayed on the conversation that he had left a week ago. He thought that the Star Alliance Tournament was over and he had completed all the activities, so what was Ying Chenlin still busy with?

You Su hadn't calmed down for a week, and Ying Chenlin's 18th birthday was approaching.

After completing the border mission, You Su was awarded a medal and promoted when he returned to Shuguang. The soldiers in the Shuguang military camp thought that You Su was taking a long vacation, but just a few days after he returned to Shuguang, he took the initiative to accept a large-scale clearing mission.

Even You Su's former boss advised him to take a few more days off. You Su also wanted to take a vacation, but when he returned to Shuguang, he realized a problem. Most of the supernatural crystals and materials taken from the border had been sent out on the day Ying Chenlin won the championship. Most of the gifts originally prepared for Ying Chenlin as a coming-of-age gift were gone. He could only kill another batch of pollutants before his birthday.

On Ying Chenlin's birthday, when You Su gave out a gift, he also received a return gift.

During his two years at the border, Ying Chenlin prepared his two-year birthday gifts. In addition to these two birthday gifts, there was another gift placed under the gun gifts. It was a new type of weapon. Ying Chenlin said it was a gift for his promotion.

After a while, You Su learned from Grandpa Ying that the gift had not been completed yet. It turned out that it was planned to be given to You Su when he came out of the border. His task was completed ahead of schedule, and Ying Chenlin worked overtime to finish the gift as soon as he returned from the border.

You Su originally thought that he might not see Ying Chenlin for most of the vacation. According to Ying Chenlin's personality of liking new things, he might continue to run around the Star Alliance. But Ying Chenlin did not do that. After the Star Alliance game, he stayed in Dawn and tinkered with parts every day.

The studio in the Ying family's villa was completely expanded, with two floors built and a basement dug.

Ying Chenlin either stays in the studio or runs to You Su's place every day.

The two of them met more often every day. Ever since You Su discovered his subtle thoughts, he had kept a distance from Ying Chenlin, while Ying Chenlin seemed to be completely unaware and became even more clingy than two years ago. Sometimes he would drag You Su to watch the records of military exercises, and sometimes he would call You Su to search for materials in the contaminated area.

The refrigerator at home was restocked with snacks, and later the snacks were carried over to the cockpit, with some snacks also placed in Theo's storage box in case of emergency. The two of them behaved as usual, but once certain thoughts emerged, every contact seemed more torturous.

After the holiday, You Su arrived at the army ahead of schedule. After his promotion, the level of tasks he could handle increased. When he arrived at the army, he was assigned a task to work in the contaminated area. Ying Chenlin started running around the Star Alliance again. The communication system still sent one message per week, but the time they were apart was getting longer, and You Su found that the time he paid attention to him was also getting longer.

Everything seemed the same as before, but You Su knew that everything was different.

You Su followed Ying Chenlin's movements. After joining the Mecha Alliance, he had more opportunities to go out on expeditions. Dawn was at the border of the First Star Region, but Ying Chenlin was heading for the entire Star Alliance.

As they met less and less, You Su thought that the distance between them would gradually fade away with time.

On his birthday that year, You Su took on a mission and had no plans to go back.

But when his mission was over, he saw Ying Chenlin outside the military camp. Ying Chenlin had looked a little darker after not seeing him for a while. He was waiting outside the military camp with a bag of barbecue and talking to Lu Yao.

When she saw him coming back, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"I heard you were back today." Ying Chenlin smiled and said, "Happy birthday, brother."

You Su discovered that time did not seem to diminish the feelings between the two, but instead made them grow stronger and become out of control.

Even if they only see each other once every few months, the strangeness of time will completely disappear when they meet.

Instead, it was like a fire that was growing more and more intense. He no longer just wanted to look into those eyes, but wanted him to be the only one in those eyes.

When he received the news again, You Su had just finished a mission and had not yet reached the Dawn border when he received an order saying that information about super S-level pollutants was found inside the Dawn galaxy. The location was in the FS contaminated area inside Dawn. Many mecha divisions of the Mecha Alliance went to provide support, but the situation was beyond the Mecha Alliance's ability to handle, so they turned to the border army for help.

When he heard about the call for mecha divisions, the first person he thought of was Ying Chenlin.

A large number of mecha technicians inside lost contact, and You Su saw Ying Chenlin’s ID from the list of missing mecha technicians.

In the past, he thought about letting the bird fly freely, but when he saw the message at that moment, he was not as calm as before. The border army took over the control and rescue of the FS contaminated area. You Su had no time to return to Shuguang, so he immediately changed route to the FS contaminated area. When he arrived at the FS contaminated area, he heard the information that the pollutants had been successfully intercepted and killed, and the trapped mecha division was transferred to the medical station.

You Su searched through the medical rooms one by one, and finally saw Ying Chenlin in the inner medical room.

Ying Chenlin was sitting in the medical room of the Contaminated Area Management Bureau with an injured left shoulder. Sitting with him were other injured mecha masters. Ying Chenlin's face was pale, and he looked relaxed as he chatted with those mecha masters. You Su only then realized that the rescue plan this time was that he was the first to discover the base station that had not been completely devoured by the black hole, and he was also the first to rush in and activate the base station's defense system. Together with other mecha divisions competing in this division, they held out until the border army arrived for support, providing a breakthrough point for the border army to use heavy weapons to eliminate the super S-level pollutant.

As if noticing the movement outside, Ying Chenlin looked outside and saw You Su with a cold face.

His inspection was finished, and when he saw You Su, his eyes had already shifted to him, "Brother!

You Su finally put down his worries when he saw Ying Chenlin was safe. However, when he was in front of Ying Chenlin, he found himself sweating all over, but he didn't say a word of condemnation.

"Hey sink! Your medical report!" said the mecha master next to him.

Ying Chenlin reached out and took the report from the other party, "Thank you, Captain Huo.

Huo Yan smiled and said, "You're welcome. Oh, by the way, you can't use the liquid medicine tank on your wound.

“The friends I met this time are the mecha division in the group battle. Their base seems to be called KID. Ying Chenlin took the report handed over and explained the original situation to You Su, “Our rear support team found them, and thanks to them, we were able to hold on to the end.

You Su didn't say anything, but just looked at Ying Chenlin's medical report from beginning to end.

No serious injuries, just some minor skin injuries.

"I'm not seriously injured, don't worry." Ying Chenlin said.

You Su looked at the report and was almost amused by Ying Chenlin: "You are still here even though you are seriously injured?

"Brother, won't you carry me on your back?" Ying Chenlin sat down and looked up at him.

You Su saw his left leg, his combat uniform was torn and wrapped in a medical bandage. He stopped looking for a wheelchair and squatted in front of Ying Chenlin, "Come up.

Ying Chenlin: "I have to do steam therapy later, and I have an injury on my back.

"Ying Chenlin, you are almost 20. The distance between us will not be as close as when we were children.

You Su carried Ying Chenlin on his back as they walked through the medical room corridor. “You will start a family and have your own future. I won’t always be by your side.

Ying Chenlin: “Is there a conflict?

You Su suddenly asked, "What if I want to be more than just your brother?

The person on his back remained silent. You Su knew that if he spoke out, there might be other changes.

When he was young, You Su wanted to see Ying Chenlin fly freely and fly farther and higher.

But one day when the bird flew away, You Su was afraid that he would never see him again.

You Su continued, "I'll find you an auxiliary robot for steam treatment. If you have any other questions, please ask the doctor.

Before he could finish his words, the person on his back suddenly moved forward. You Su noticed Ying Chenlin's movement, and the next second he felt a warm touch on his face.

The brief contact stopped on the side of You Su's face. You Su's movements paused slightly and the whole person stopped in place.

After Ying Chenlin kissed her, he said after a while: "I asked Lieutenant Colonel Lu and found out that you don't have a boyfriend in the camp.

“If you’re not a brother, can you be a boyfriend?
