Chi Yao laughed for a while, as if a switch was turned on. Shi

Xing had just had a heart attack and was speechless. But after a while, seeing Chi Yao laughing so happily, he inexplicably felt a bit of tolerance that he was reluctant to interrupt.

Recently... the atmosphere in the entire battleship team is too low.

Your Highness hasn't slept well for a long time, and hasn't been so happy for a long time.

Even if it was a joke on himself, Shi Xing admitted it. With his

chin resting on Chi Yao's knees, Shi Xing looked at him helplessly until Chi Yao felt that it was a bit too much. He restrained his smile, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise. He asked Shi Xing, "What's that expression on your face?" He asked even though

he knew the answer.

Shi Xing was in a good mood: "Your Highness, you lied to me, what kind of expression do you think I should have?"

After saying that, Chi Yao couldn't help but curled the corners of his lips again.

Reaching out his hand, Shi Xing understood and leaned his face forward, and Chi Yao stroked his cheek affectionately.

After a moment of silence, his expression finally returned to normal.

Shi Xing thought his request was reasonable and pointed out: "Since you are not angry, then the punishment is just a joke, right?"

Not knowing what he thought of, Chi Yao stopped smiling again, and stared at Shi Xing quietly with a calm look. Shi Xing felt uneasy again for some reason after being stared at for a long time, and his breathing was slightly disordered.

But this time Chi Yao did not leave him alone, and waved to him. Shi Xing followed the gesture and stood up. The next moment, he was picked up by Chi Yao and thrown onto the bed.

"Shoes, I was wearing slippers..."

He had just said half a sentence when Chi Yao stretched out his long hand and brushed Shi Xing's ankles, and the shoes fell under the bed.

After sitting down again, Shi Xing found that the two people were much closer.

Chi Yao straightened his expression.

Without any expression, Shi Xing thought of four words, awe-inspiring without anger.

Wrapping himself tightly in the blanket, Shi Xing shrank pitifully.

Chi Yao finally replied to him seriously, "I'm not as furious as you think, but at the same time, I can't be happy either."

A fair and straightforward answer.

Shi Xing muttered, "Then you have been ignoring me..." When

mentioning this, Chi Yao smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes, "I ignored you? Didn't you hide first?"

"After Weifeng solved the star beast, he didn't even dare to look at me."

"It's impulsive, and you didn't explain it. You still want to blame this matter..."

After a pause, he said unhappily, "Isn't it good for me to satisfy you?"

Shi Xing was speechless.

At that time, he had a bit of an ostrich mentality.

Going over... I know it's impossible, but I do want to face the storm later.

Chi Yao saw through Shi Xing, "Am I wrong?"

It's not wrong, it's too right, Shi Xing was speechless.

Shi Xing's eyes became pitiful again.

Chi Yao looked at him, this time, Shi Xing could clearly tell that Chi Yao's expression was a little bit angry. They

looked at each other in silence, and Shi Xing apologized, "I'm sorry, Your Highness."

This time, there was no questioning without understanding the meaning. He looked deeply at Shi Xing's face, and in a moment, Chi Yao let out a long breath.

Headache.

Finally, he softened his tone and said in disgust, "You are always positive to admit your mistakes, but you just won't change."

Shi Xing's eyes sparkled, and his voice was extremely obedient, "I didn't mean it."

Chi Yao exposed, "Don't lie to me."

It was obvious that he was committing a crime knowingly. Shi Xing :

"..." Shi Xing: "Your Highness..." Chi Yao: "Don't act like a spoiled child. " Shi Xing: "…………" Shi Xing had no more tricks and tightened his blanket again. Chi Yao held his forehead, his emotions came up, but not all directed at Shi Xing. The room was quiet again. After being together for so long, even if he still couldn't fully understand what Chi Yao was thinking, but the tacit understanding in life was established. Shi Xing intuitively felt that Chi Yao needed time to calm down, so he looked at his nose and nose and heart without saying a word. His feeling was right. After exhaling another breath and lowering his voice, Chi Yao was finally willing to talk to Shi Xing seriously. "I'm not angry because I think I shouldn't be angry." "As for the point of being unhappy, there's no need to say more. If you think I'm happy, you don't have to hide." Shi Xing looked at Chi Yao with clear blue eyes, which were refracted like two pools of spring water under the light. Moved, Chi Yao reached out and touched Shi Xing's eyes. Touched, Shi Xing rubbed his hand with his face, and Chi Yao did not refuse. The relationship was still not completely reconciled, but the ice of silence began to melt. Shi Xing didn't dare to play any tricks anymore, and said sincerely, "It's okay for you to be angry, it's my fault." If he hadn't used his mental power well in that situation, there wouldn't be this incident today. Shi Xing mentioned the key to this matter, but he himself didn't know it. Chi Yao looked at his confused partner, feeling a tight choke in his chest. "Although I don't want to admit it, but..." Chi Yao took a deep breath and said reluctantly, "But actually, there's nothing wrong with you." Shi Xing was surprised. Chi Yao: "Don't look at me like that, I said I don't want to admit it." Shi Xing put her chin on Chi Yao's knees, and her obedient appearance made Chi Yao lose the battle. She didn't intend to explain at first, but was pushed by Shi Xing's silent action, and continued reluctantly. "Because you are not only my partner, but also a direct descendant of the royal family." "In that case, it's best for you to take action." After a pause, she said sincerely, "If I were you, I would make the same choice." Shi Xing is Chi Yao's partner, but not just Chi Yao's partner.

As one of the two most powerful people in the empire, if he doesn't even have the awareness of setting an example and protecting his people from danger, Chi Yao would feel that they have failed to educate Shi Xing in the past year and a half.

Thinking about this matter from this perspective, Chi Yao not only feels that Shi Xing has grown up, but should also feel relieved.

When he puts aside his personal feelings and acts as the emperor of the empire, he should think like this.

Maybe if it were Bi Zhou, he would be able to suppress his emotions better.

But it just so happens...

Chi Yao: "But at the same time, you are my partner, and I..."

His voice became very soft.

Chi Yao is not used to revealing his feelings.

"I made a great decision to bring you out of the tree nest."

"You put yourself in danger, I can't be indifferent."

Chi Yao closed his eyes for a moment, and said in a complicated way, "As the monarch of the empire, I should feel gratified and even praise you; but as a person... I don't want to."

"So I said, I'm not angry, but I can't be happy either."

More importantly, there are complicated emotions.

The collision of reason and emotion.

"Your Highness."

The love perceived from these words made Shi Xing's heart soften, and he reached out to hug Chi Yao.

Chi Yao pushed him away, and said angrily, "Don't be like this, I'm not praising you!"

Shi Xing: "I know, but I want to hug you."

"No."

"Your Highness~"

Chi Yao pushed Shi Xing away again, Shi Xing smiled and leaned up, calling him again.

He called out for who knows how many times, even though he still didn't look happy, Chi Yao finally reached out his hand. In the long-lost yet familiar embrace, Shi Xing felt very relieved.

Shi Xing murmured, "Your Highness, you seem to care about me a lot."

Chi Yao: "Remove the word 'seems'."

Shi Xing laughed again.

He couldn't help it.

After laughing, he said tactfully, "Then the punishment..."

Chi Yao pinched his face, making Shi Xing scream, and then said, "Don't use the first one, save the last one." Shi

Xing's face fell, "Ah——?!"

Chi Yao had a blank expression, "You talk about punishment every time, calculate it yourself, what was really punished you?"

Shi Xing was speechless.

Indeed, he had not received any actual punishment, it was just talk.

Chi Yao touched Shi Xing's forehead with his hand, and it was still feverish.

Even so, there could be no corporal punishment.

Chi Yao: "I think this method is good. Now we will record it and you can pay it back slowly when you are mature."

Shi Xing was confused.

He wanted to struggle, but Chi Yao did not give him a chance and said, "It just so happens that the previous punishments were also recorded. Now that we have found a way, let's talk about the specific implementation?"

Shi Xing shut up. Accepted it.

After a while, he muttered again, "Why did you leave me alone for so long this time..."

Chi Yao said seriously, "How can it be so long? It's just the first day?"

"You know what the situation is with the battleship at the back."

"If you don't come yourself, do you expect others to think of this and give you my time?"

Shi Xing was silent again.

Chi Yao: "Next time, don't hide from this kind of thing, and

don't try to blame me. I'm not such a person who can't tell right from wrong." After a pause, he added, "Don't think about escaping even if it's not this kind of thing. Let's talk it out."

His words were filled with a hint of helplessness.

Shi Xing deliberately retorted, "What if I still hide?"

Chi Yao said cruelly, "Then I'll do as you wish and leave you alone."

Too much, "I'll leave you alone until you don't ask such questions anymore."

Shi Xing: "..."

Shi Xing: "I'm going to get angry."

Chi Yao: "That's great, I can't be the one who gets angry every time."

Shi Xing: "?"

Shi Xing was startled and raised his head. Chi Yao didn't give in and looked at him.

Grinding his back teeth, Shi Xing stood up, and with love and hate, he pulled Chi Yao's collar and kissed him.

They haven't been close for a long time.

From then on, as the old saying goes, they quarreled at the head of the bed and made up at the foot of the bed.

...

Chi Yao didn't get enough sleep, so he made a fool of himself and slept until dinner while holding Shi Xing.

At dinner time, Shi Xing felt exhausted. Er Ya looked at him for a while, and suddenly said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "This is also okay."

Shi Xing: "?"

Er Ya: "You need to replenish your spiritual power recently. Chi Yao is at a high level, so you can absorb his energy."

Shi Xing: "..."

With red ears, Shi Xing picked up some food for Er Ya, blocking his teacher from saying the next word.

The situation was relatively stable, Chi Yao's daily routine returned to normal, and the two lived together again.

Shi Xing was still simmering, and he was not feeling well every day.

In response, Er Ya said, "It was like this before. The spiritual sea is growing. There is nothing we can do. Just pay attention."

He took Shi Xing's temperature again. Seeing Shi Xing's listless appearance, Chi Yao knew that he could only wait, but he couldn't help feeling distressed.

However, within two days, the final destination of the group of star beasts on the planet was finally determined.

Fei Chu brought back the satellite map, and Shi Xing also participated in the meeting. All the officers felt a headache.

"So, with this planet as the boundary, this side is the Fourth Army, and that side is the Third Army."

"Did they go to the Third Army's garrison?"

Chi Yao concluded.

Fei Chu nodded, "I have contacted Lu Li as soon as possible and asked them to prepare for the battle."

Veteran General Zhuang Yuanyin analyzed, "It may be because we chose the direction of the Fourth Legion, so the star beasts did not catch up."

Because the star beasts that pursued us were destroyed by them in the first time.

Star beasts are also bullying the weak.

There are so many star beast carcasses suspended in the space on this side. When the star beasts chasing from behind see them, they will naturally change direction when they cannot determine the direction of the time and star.

The star beasts chasing to the Third Legion’s base were not intercepted halfway.

It is very likely that there are more and more star beasts, which has caused the current situation.

Chi Yao looked at the satellite map again. The result has been obtained, so he doesn’t care much about the cause.

The key is the response plan.

Chi Yao looked around, "What do you think we should do now?"

Bi Zhou, who was listening, answered, "Observe for two days. If support is needed, we can go over there?"

Chi Yao did not say anything, obviously dissatisfied with this answer.

Shi Xing's eyes flickered for a moment, then he lowered his eyes and said, "Just go over there to support."

"There are too many star beasts. If a gap is opened on the border, the subsequent star beasts will follow, and the consequences will be immeasurable."

"Recently, the border defense has been adjusted."

"The original destination was the main star stationed by the Fourth Army, and now it has been changed to the Third Army, the same."

Even if he didn't want to see Lu Li again, he knew that Lu Li was now at the border, but Shi Xing couldn't let the entire First Army give up the most correct decision because of a few people.

The Third Army is not just a few people from the Lu family.

The past is the past.

And he is still running a fever. If he doesn't want to see someone, he won't see him.

Sure enough, Chi Yao said, "That's what I mean."

All the officers had no objection.

The overall turn of the fleet was completed within half an hour.

Moving forward at full speed, two days later, the mother ship of the First Army landed on the main star stationed at the border of the Third Army.

The temperature on the main star is lower and the wind and sand are strong.

All the people from the Lu family at the border, together with the senior officers of the Third Army here, came to greet them.

Shi Xing was still running a fever and couldn't get any wind, so he wore a canopy under the mother ship and his hat was also raised.

Lu Lu stood at the back of the team, his rank was not high enough to stand in the front row.

He did not pay attention at first, but after realizing that the figure was familiar, the more he looked, the more Lu Lu could not help but try to distinguish the face under the hood.

His gaze was unreserved, and after looking for a while, suddenly, a terrifying mental force pressed down.

Lu Lu's heart was instantly pounding, and sweat was pouring down his back. He forced himself not to kneel down.

When that mental force was gathered, His Majesty's eyes suddenly passed over him in the crowd.

They looked at each other for only a very short moment.

Gasping for breath, Lu Lu realized belatedly that it was His Majesty who felt that his behavior was out of line and was scolding him.
