Chapter 105 The Mint Scent on the Quilt

"Sorry." Gu Zheng retracted his gaze and said in a light tone: "I seem to be stuck."

"Huh?" He Jing was stunned. Just as he was about to move his head, he was held down by a big hand.

"Don't move."

Gu Zheng leaned closer, lowered his eyes to stare at the red ears, and a humming laugh came from his chest.

He Jing was stunned and his ears turned red!

"Okay." Gu Zheng sat up straight, holding the cufflinks he had just taken off in his hand.

He Jing took a look and lowered his head in panic.

"It's okay." A savior-like voice sounded, and the girl took off her helmet. "It's okay, have a good rest."

"OK, thanks!"

"You're welcome. My name is Lanxi. I'm a medical technician stationed at the border. If you feel unwell later, you can come to me."

"Hello, my name is He Jing."

Lanxi smiled and nodded, then packed up her things.

"It's really her..."

"You don't know? Don't you read any federal news?"

"What? Tell me quickly..."

The whispering sounded again. He Jing was a little confused. He opened his round cat eyes and asked softly, "What are they talking about?"

"The media previously revealed the relationship between the Gu family and you."

"Ah..." He Jing touched his nose. He didn't expect that it would be on the news.

"Let's take a break?"

He Jing nodded quickly.

Gu Zheng stood up and led the people inside.

I met a lot of people along the way, and without exception, they were all full of gossip!

He Jing felt guilty being stared at and gently tugged at Gu Zheng's sleeve.

"They seem to have misunderstood something?"

"It's okay, we're here."

As he spoke, Gu Zheng took out a card from his pocket and swiped it to open the door.

The room is very simple, like a temporary dormitory.

The space is neither too big nor too small, with a simple single bed, a wardrobe and a desk.

Gu Zheng took off his coat and hung it aside.

He opened the closet and took out a quilt, "Go get some sleep."

He Jing suddenly felt a little restrained, "What is this?"

"My lounge. I usually rest here during border patrol."

After that, he glanced at the girl standing still and said lightly, "The quilt is clean."

He Jing waved his hands repeatedly, "I, that's not what I meant!"

Gu Zheng remained silent.

He Jing lay down obediently.

The quilt is very soft and has a light mint scent.

He Jing felt that it smelled very good and familiar, and couldn't help but sniff it.

A light laugh was heard, and He Jing instantly covered his face with the quilt!

...This is the fragrance of Gu Zheng. (*//▽//*)

Ahhh, what kind of hooligan am I?! He wouldn’t think I’m greedy for his body, would he?!

He Jing screamed inwardly! He closed his eyes tightly, covered his pounding heart, and shrank against the wall.

The room was quiet. He Jing listened to her own heartbeat. She thought she would not be able to sleep, but unexpectedly, fatigue came over her and drowned her in an instant.

Gradually regaining consciousness, He Jing wrapped himself in the quilt and stretched out, feeling that he had a very comfortable sleep.

As his sight gradually focused, He Jing stared at the ceiling, which felt so familiar, and his expression froze. (O_O)

This seems to be...Gu Zheng’s bedroom!

He Jing sat up quickly and looked at the time.

Federal 09:25

? !

Is this... here we are?

Why are you sleeping so deeply?

How did it get from the spaceship to the bedroom?!

"woke up?"

A low voice came, and He Jing shuddered with fear.

"Gu Zheng?"

"Yeah." Gu Zheng responded, and the dark shadow on the sofa moved.

He Jing then realized that there was another person in the room!

"Still sleeping?"

“No…”

The curtains were drawn and the sunlight came in. He Jing squinted his eyes to adjust.

Gu Zheng walked to the bedside and handed her a glass of honey water.

He Jing took it and took a few sips, then said a little embarrassedly, "Why didn't you wake me up?"

"You have consumed too much mental energy. Sleep is your body's way of repairing itself."

He Jing's eyes lit up, "A Zheng! My spiritual power seems to have become physical again!"

"Well, I've already checked the surveillance on the spacecraft."

"So am I normal?"

Gu Zheng raised his eyebrows. "A thousand years ago, at the peak of human spiritual development, the materialization of energy beams was a very common phenomenon."

"So... now?"

"Very little." Gu Zheng said, and lightly tapped his fingertips. A dark blue ribbon emerged from his fingertips, swayed in the air, and rubbed her wrist.

“Only a few high-level 3s can do it.”

He Jing raised her hand and poked it gently, and the blue ribbon wrapped around her fingertips.

"You can!"

"Um."

"Then I won't have to fall asleep every time I show up next time, right?"

"No, you'll get used to it after practicing a few times." Gu Zheng said as he took out a few supplements from his pocket.

"Strong supplement. This can also quickly replenish your mental strength, but you can only drink two at a time. Keep it with you in case of emergency."

He Jing took it, opened the lid and smelled it. It smelled like strawberry.

"Thank you~"

"Are you hungry?"

"I'm not hungry. Oh! By the way! I haven't told Aunt Chen I'm safe yet!" He Jing thought frantically, then stopped in surprise.

[It’s Xiao He: Aunt Chen, I’m here~]

[Auntie Chen: It’s good that we’re here. Go get some rest!]

"Hey, did you send this?"

"Um."

He Jing chuckled, "You... imitated it quite well, hahaha!"

"...If you send it to her using my number, she'll guess something's wrong."

"I understand! You're so smart, Zheng~"

He Jing smiled and moved forward, looking at the other's red ears with curiosity.

The man turned and walked away, as if he had made some kind of decision.

He Jing panicked, oh no, maybe he had teased her too much.

"you……"

"I'm going to change my clothes. You can rest for a while and go to the research institute this afternoon."

He Jing's eyes fell on his clothes, the same ones he wore last night.

He wouldn't guard himself all night...

He Jing muttered softly, his heart softening.

The clean suitcase was placed next to the sofa. He Jing opened it and took out the gift box from it.

It's fine, not broken.

With a sigh of relief, He Jing closed the lid and put it in the drawer beside the bed.

He took out another piece of clothes and changed into them.

After washing up, He Jing finally felt like he had woken up from a dream.

The scene at that time replayed uncontrollably in my mind: the exploding spaceship and the wound pierced by the energy gun.

It's not a game, it's a real fight between people.

He Jingshen exhaled and his eyes fell on the neatly arranged things on the table.

A stack of books, a pencil case, and a water cup.

He Jing picked up the top tablet with trembling hands.

The fuselage was bent into a helmet and the screen was shattered into pieces.

He Jing pressed it distressedly, but there was no response.

"Hey...what's the head? It's so hard."

He Jing pressed it a few more times but it still didn't work, and his brows were furrowed.

What to do, the data is still inside╥﹏╥

He Jing knocked on Gu Zheng's door with a tablet in her hand, heartbroken.

Soon, the door was opened and Gu Zheng appeared behind the door wearing home clothes.

He was holding a towel in his hand, and his hair was half dry and sticking up, just like a big cat with its fur standing on end!

"What's wrong?"

"broken."

He Jing shook the tablet in his hand, and his cheeks puffed up like buns.
