Si Yuting reluctantly stepped back, saying, "Sorry."

Qu Tong reached out and touched Si Yuting's chin; it felt a little prickly.

In the past, Si Yuting had a severe case of obsessive-compulsive disorder and always kept himself impeccably groomed. This was the first time I had ever seen Si Yuting with stubble.

Aside from being a little prickly to the hands and face, it doesn't affect anything; he's still just as handsome.

Si Yuting is inherently a tough guy, but even more manly.

Si Yuting probably didn't like it and got up to go to the bathroom to deal with it.

Qu Tong followed her inside and offered, "Let me help you."

Si Yuting glanced at Qu Tong's eager expression and handed her the razor.

Qu Tong took it and played with it in her hand. The interstellar razor was not much different from the modern one. The principle was similar, except that it was more sophisticated and quieter.

Hmm, the effect seems to be pretty good.

My hands are a little tired.

"Honey, squat down a little."

Just as Si Yuting was about to do so, Qu Tong said again, "Forget it, that would make you even more tired."

With a light touch, Qu Tong was lifted and sat on the sink.

Si Yuting leaned closer, one hand on the edge of the table.

"That's good."

The mirror reflected two figures standing very close together, their breaths mingling intimately. Qu Tong pinched Si Yuting's chin with her left hand, forcing him to tilt his head back slightly, while her right hand held a razor and meticulously shaved.

Si Yuting swallowed unconsciously, his Adam's apple bobbing, and his sharply defined chin trembling.

"Don't move!"

Qu Tong grumbled in dissatisfaction, and with a little force, turned Si Yuting's head to the other side.

After all that work, which took Si Yuting twice as long as usual, Master Qu finally finished and was satisfied.

After wiping away the remaining crumbs with a damp towel, Si Yuting's voice rang in my ears.

"Can we kiss now?"

Before Qu Tong could answer, Si Yuting pulled her down and leaned in to kiss her.

The kiss was intense and deep.

Although Qu Tong was the one who came to power, Si Yuting was the one who held the dominant position.

One moment it was a docile, pitiful puppy begging for forgiveness, and the next it turned into a hungry dog.

Qu Tong leaned back against the sink, but for every step she took back, Si Yuting moved forward, until she had nowhere left to retreat.

Her face, flushed from lack of oxygen, was clearly reflected in the mirror.

After a long while, Qu Tong finally made an excuse and slipped away.

After making a round of inspections outside and touching his face, which had returned to normal temperature, he returned home from Xiang Bin's house with lunch for two.

Pushing open the door, I found Si Yuting asleep on the sofa.

He's tall and has long legs, taking up the entire sofa. One hand is casually resting on his stomach, and the other is on his head.

Qu Tong squatted down and looked at him for a while. She couldn't help but reach out and carefully trace the man's lower eyelids. He had dark circles under his eyes. He must have been very tired from looking for her these past few days, otherwise why wouldn't he wake up?

It normally takes three days to travel from the capital planet to the southern border. Si Yuting's fighter jet might be a little faster, but it would take another two or three days to travel from the southern border to the capital of Casadi. In addition, there would be a mission to be carried out along the way, and then a return trip to Loy Star would take up half a month.

When I got back, I was freezing outside all night and half a day.

A large part of the blame lies with me accidentally blocking that person.

How stupid!

But I was also a little touched.

She didn't blame him at all. Who can predict their own destiny? Unpredictability is the norm in life, and Si Yuting isn't a god.

It was an accident that Du Biao stumbled upon her own weakness, but of course, she didn't come away empty-handed.

Having finally cleared up the misunderstanding and no longer needing to worry, Qu Tong was able to sleep soundly and didn't have the heart to disturb her.

She got up, tiptoed to the window, and drew the curtains.

"when-"

Something fell on the ground.

Qu Tong bent down and picked it up. It was a bright white gemstone, square and flat, with a smooth texture.

Qu Tong held it up to the light, and the sunlight shining through revealed its delicate texture, somewhat resembling the insectoid essence stone that Cypu had used to pay off its debts.

However, this one is larger and purer.

Oh right, she didn't seem to see Cyprus when she went out.

Saipu would avoid Si Yuting, but when she was alone, she would always take the initiative to approach him.

Qu Tong touched the ring on her ring finger. Si Yuting had put it back on her before he left, and he had tidied up all her things and put them in there.

Qu Tong took out her other quantum computer from the nesting doll's spatial button.

She turned on her phone, and sure enough, there was a message from Cypu.

Sister, I've gone back to the insect hive. This time it might be a long time before I'm back.

[I really want to take my sister back with me. Aren't you humans supposed to repay a life-saving debt with your body? Why doesn't that apply to my sister?]

Saipu probably felt that she couldn't do anything to him after he left, so he started to act recklessly again.

However, she really couldn't do anything about him.

Keep reading.

Although my sister is so heartless, I still love her. And I'll reluctantly try to like her children and offspring as well.

The female insect's essence stone is beneficial to human offspring. It's outside the windowsill; remember to collect it, sister, as a food allowance.

If that bad man bullies you, go to the Insect Planet and contact me. I'll take you far away.

It is quite obvious that Cypu is not familiar with optical computers; there are typos and the use of symbols is not standard.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Zerg use pheromones to communicate remotely.

Cyprus, however, actually found out that she was pregnant.

Thinking back to the last time we met, it was without her even realizing it.

Qu Tong weighed the spirit stone in her hand, but did not easily believe Sai Pu's words. She found a box, put it in, and threw it back into her spatial storage.

I also tidied up the things I brought back from the Casa Empire, and then took my lunch downstairs to eat.

After finishing her meal, Qu Tong received a message from Old Yuan.

I answered the call casually, and before I could even speak, I heard Old Yuan's arrogant laughter.

"Snap!" Qu Tong wasn't going to let it go and decisively hung up, waiting for Old Man Yuan to finish laughing before continuing.

A while later, Old Yuan called again, cursing: "You brat, what are you doing? You think you're all grown up now? You dare to hang up on your master before you've even said a word."

"You're disturbing my ears," Qu Tong said in a flat tone.

"Hmph!" Old Yuan snorted angrily, "The Lan family is on the verge of death, can't I even be happy?"

"What happened?" Qu Tong asked curiously.

Old Yuan deliberately kept her in suspense, "Guess where I am right now?"

Qu Tong asked patiently, "Where?"

"I've just arrived in the Canaan Empire and I'm with Wu Yue, one of your husband's subordinates," Old Man Yuan said smugly.

"You went to the Casa Empire?"

How did you know?

"Just a guess."

She had deliberately preserved the historical voyage of the Poison Dart ship, guessing what Feng Lin or Si Yuting might discover. She just hadn't expected Si Yuting to send someone to take Old Man Yuan along, and to have results so quickly.

"Si Yuting has finally done something worthwhile. He's worthy of being the empire's youngest general. He's got some ability and is much more reliable than his father." Old Yuan changed his previous prejudice and praised Si Yuting.

Qu Tong teased, "You didn't say that before. You said they were all snakes and rats, not a single one of them was good, and told me to open my eyes."

"Hehe!" Old Yuan chuckled awkwardly. "That's not important! What's important is that neither Lan Jianghong nor Lan Weiying will escape this time. They're really bold!" (End of Chapter)
