"Put on some clothes first." Bai Yan suppressed the restlessness in his heart, quickly took off his coat and put it on Cheng Yu. His hands unconsciously tightened a little to completely cover the person.

Bai Yan wrapped his coat tightly around Cheng Yu and said, "It was my fault." He forgot to prepare clothes for him.

He pulled Cheng Yu straight into the bedroom, his warm yet bony hands holding Cheng Yu's slender wrists.

"Sit here and wait." Bai Yan pressed Cheng Yu's shoulders and asked him to sit on the edge of the bed. He then quickly walked to the closet and began to look for suitable clothes.

He was a single soldier, and his closet was filled with uniforms, so I had to pick out a new shirt for him.

Cheng Yu didn't take it. He lowered his head and looked around the wardrobe. "Yes." That one, "I've worn it."

Bai Yan touched his red ears and gave him a newer one.

Cheng Yu didn't comment, lowered his head and began to study his clothes, but got stuck when buttoning them. After several attempts, he finally became a little impatient and casually draped the shirt over his body, revealing most of his collarbone and shoulders.

"Yanyan, no."

Bai Yan's gaze fell on Cheng Yu's thin shoulders and slightly open collar. His chest inexplicably tightened, and then he looked away, suppressed the surging in his heart, walked over and squatted down to help him button his clothes.

"Yanyan, Hong." Cheng Yu poked his face, then reached out and gently touched Bai Yan's ear. Her soft fingertips were slightly cool, and her voice was soft.

"Don't move." His voice was low, with a hint of tense restraint.

Bai Yan's fingers buttoned his shirt quickly and neatly, but he was too close and could clearly feel the dampness emanating from Cheng Yu.

"Stop poking." Bai Yan grabbed Cheng Yu's little hand and patted it gently, "Okay, be good."

Cheng Yu tilted his head, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, "Be good."

The soft sound made Bai Yan's heart skip a beat. He stood up and quickly took two steps back to create some distance.

"Your hair isn't dry yet. Blow it dry before you go to bed." He changed the subject, walked to the locker next to him, and took out a hair dryer. "Come here."

Cheng Yu casually kicked off her slippers, knelt on the bed, and obediently moved closer to Bai Yan.

The warm air from the hair dryer blew past, causing Orange Yu's long hair to flutter. The slightly damp hair had a soft luster under the light.

Cheng Yu lowered his head quietly, letting Bai Yan's hands run through his hair, gently gathering and loosening it. The occasional touch of his fingertips made him squint slightly.

Bai Yan answered the phone while blowing Cheng Yu's hair.

"General," the adjutant's calm voice came from the other side, "Headquarters has called an urgent meeting, expected to begin in ten minutes."

Bai Yan frowned slightly and glanced at Cheng Yu in front of him. Cheng Yu was still kneeling on the bed, leaning lazily against the bedpost, her long eyelashes drooping slightly like crow feathers, covering her red eyes.

"What's the content?" His voice was cold, but his hands did not stop moving, and he continued to carefully blow dry the ends of Cheng Yu's hair.

"You secretly..."

Before he finished speaking, Bai Yan already understood. He said "hmm" softly, hung up the communicator, put down the hair dryer, and looked down at Cheng Yu.

"Sorry, I received a meeting notice at the last minute, so I asked Shao Chengyi to bring you food and some daily necessities." Bai Yan glanced at the light computer in his hand and sent a message to his adjutant Shao Chengyi on it.

Cheng Yu raised her head slightly to look at him, a mist gathered in her eyes, and suddenly her mouth pursed, as if she was about to cry.

She reached out and grabbed the corner of her coat, lowered her head, and said in a voice with a hint of grievance like a spoiled child: "I won't leave." No.

He squatted down and gently held Cheng Yu's shoulders with both hands, looking him in the eye. "Cheng Yu," he said, his voice as soft as possible, with a hint of soothing, "I'm just going to a meeting. I'll be back soon."

Cheng Yu was unmoved. He stretched out his hand, hugged Bai Yan's neck and buried his whole body in his shoulder.

The action was so decisive that Bai Yan was caught off guard.

He froze, then sighed helplessly, raised his hand and gently patted Cheng Yu's back. Bai Yan felt a little distressed by his slightly trembling shoulders.

After staying for a while, Cheng Yu let him go on her own initiative, with tears in the corners of her eyes and a red nose.

"Bye." She waved at him.

Bai Yan was a little confused about his attitude. His gaze lingered on Cheng Yu's face for a few seconds before he replied in a low voice, "Be back soon."

Cheng Yu looked at Bai Yan's back as he left, then lay down on the bed, his eyes becoming much calmer.

He moved the quilt to the other side, got out of bed, ran to the study, and brought the army green quilt cover back to the room.

She wrapped her arms and legs around the quilt before closing her eyes contentedly, the scent she loved filling her nose.

Like...small pets...

After Bai Yan left the room, he walked towards the meeting room with steady steps.

There was no expression on his face, but his slightly furrowed brows revealed a hint of displeasure.

Pushing open the conference room door, the atmosphere inside was distinctly subdued. Several senior military officers and research department heads had already arrived, and data related to the experiment was displayed on the projection screen.

"General." Bai Yan's other adjutant, Yu Shaohan, stood by and whispered, "The meeting has just begun."

Bai Yan nodded and sat directly on the main seat. He glanced at everyone present and then said, "Let's begin."

Before I even had time to sit down, the head of the research department started to make trouble.

"General Bai, taking the experimental subject off base without authorization not only violates regulations but could also have an immeasurable impact on the entire project. The experiment involves too many resources, and we cannot afford the consequences of your personal decision."

Another officer followed closely behind, speaking in a firm tone: "Bai Yan, we all understand your decision-making ability on the battlefield, but this is a scientific research field, not a place where you can arbitrarily interfere.
