"I don't!"
Huo Wei said in a deep voice. He looked at Li Shu quietly, with crazy longing and anxiety in his eyes. Li Shu also looked at him quietly, leaning against him.
"I miss you so much. I want to see you."
Li Shu's voice was gentle and firm, like a breeze sweeping through Huo Wei's heart, sweeping away all the anxiety and leaving only longing.
He held Li Shu's chin. Li Shu tilted her head back slightly, but smiled and kissed her red lips. She whispered to Huo Wei, "I miss you, too. I want this too."
Huo Wei's lips were slightly cool, and his face was slightly pale when he was wrapped in Li Shu's warmth.
"You've lost weight."
There were faint dark circles under Li Shu's eyes, obviously due to lack of sleep. There was a circle of light fuzz around his lips, and there was a hint of unbearable fatigue in his eyes. He had lost a lot of weight.
Howie's eyes were full of heartache.
Li Shu raised the corner of his lips, as if he was still unsatisfied, and whispered to Huo Wei, "You too."
He looked at Howie. Howie's face was a bit fierce, with dark circles under his eyes and stubble growing. The hands he was holding on to him were slightly tightened.
He could see some minor scars.
Li Shu subconsciously wanted to use his supernatural power, but was held down by Huo Wei.
"Don't waste it, I have medicine."
"Won't your body become even weaker if you use your powers again? And you definitely didn't come to me for no reason. Is something wrong?"
Huo Wei knew Li Shu very well. At such a critical moment, he would definitely not let his impulse control him.
Li Shu's eyes flickered slightly, and he said to Huo Wei honestly, "When I went to see Captain Meng Yi, I found him arguing with someone. He hung up the phone, and Captain Meng Yi told me."
Li Shu paused slightly.
"The royal family contacted him and demanded that he admit that it was the Imperial Army, not us, that helped rescue the planet Mongla."
"And Captain Meng Yi said that he wasn't the only one who contacted him, but also captains from other planets."
Li Shu bit his lip, feeling a little angry at the thought. He said to Huo Wei, "But Captain Meng Yi rejected them. However, I'm worried that if other captains don't refuse, or if the royal family continues to fabricate news, it might pose a threat to the morale of the army."
No one understands this better than Li Shu, and no one understands this better than Huo Wei.
What soldiers need most is recognition of their contributions.
He looked towards Li Shu and said softly to him, "I understand what you mean."
Li Shu frowned.
"This matter is too serious. Even though Captain Meng Yi rejected them, if word gets out... it will probably cause dissatisfaction among the star beasts, and their enthusiasm for resisting the insect swarm will wane."
After all, people are confused and their focus will definitely be diverted.
Huo Wei held Li Shu's hand, lowered his head and kissed Li Shu gently.
"Don't worry, I will take care of this matter."
"Besides, everyone can see what we do. As long as we have a clear conscience, it's fine."
Li Shu suddenly understood, looked towards Huo Wei, and said softly to him, "I understand, but I think I should tell you in advance."
"After I return, I will ask Captain Meng Yi to make a live broadcast announcement, which will be held in my live broadcast room."
"That way they can't distort it."
Huo Wei nodded, glanced at Li Shu, and whispered, "Okay, I'll tell you about this as well. I'll give you a heads-up when the time comes."
"We resist the insect tide not for the imperial family, but for our families, friends, and loved ones!"
Huo Wei raised his head and looked at Li Shu, and said softly to Li Shu: "So don't worry."
Li Shu listened to what Huo Wei said and looked at him in a daze.
Family, lover?
Li Shu curled his lips, put his hand around Huo Wei's neck, and brushed his lips against Huo Wei's ear. His hot breath burned Huo Wei, causing his earlobe to turn slightly red.
"Me too. I did it for you."
Li Shu kissed Huo Wei's ear, knowing that time was running out, and Huo Wei must have come down from the battlefield specially.
Neither of them had much time.
"I want to go back."
Huo Wei hugged Li Shu reluctantly, his voice low and magnetic.
"We won't be apart for long."
He will definitely defeat the insect swarm and protect Li Shu.
Li Shu smiled and held Huo Wei's hand.
"Please take me out."
Howie took him all the way to the flight cabin. Li Shu didn't stick around, so he took off his helmet and put it on, then went straight into the flight cabin.
Huo Wei watched Li Shu leave motionlessly, his eyes full of deepness as he watched the warships make a path to send Li Shu away.
The flight cabin that passed by like a meteor made Howie tremble, and his heart slightly tightened.
Chen Liang came forward, looked towards Huo Wei, and whispered, "Mr. Li Shu will be safe."
Howie groaned.
"I know. Go gather all the remaining star beasts. I have something to tell them."
He did not intend to hide it or keep the news secret. He planned to take the initiative and tell the royal family's affairs himself.
Only in this way can they be prepared when the royal family destroys their military morale.
The star beasts have sacrificed too much, and he can no longer let them bear anything else.
Chen Liang didn't understand, but still responded with a yes.
On the other side, Li Shu went to find Meng Yi as soon as he got out of the flight cabin.
At this time, Meng Yi was visiting Xing Beast and comforting Xing Beast's family.
Meng Yi turned his head to look at Li Shu. Seeing Li Shu's dusty appearance, with a hint of confusion in his eyes, he whispered to Li Shu, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Li Shu looked at the star beasts and their families around him, and his eyes darkened.
"Let's go outside and talk. I need help from the captain."
Li Shu led Meng Yi outside. It was deserted, a perfect place for conversation. Li Shu felt relieved and whispered to Meng Yi, "Chen Liang and I have discussed this. We'd like to do a livestream with you to share the results of our conversation with the royal family."
"Let the general public know what the royal family is doing. While we were fighting the insect tide, they were secretly threatening and bribing the captain, fabricating lies, and disregarding the lives of the star beasts and the people."
Li Shu raised his head and looked at Meng Yi.
"Captain Meng Yi, I'm not forcing you. I know you're loyal to the empire, just like Captain Li En. It's just that I can't bear to see the royal family slinging dirty water and disrupting the morale of the army."
"You are a military man, you should understand how serious this is."
Meng Yi was silent for a moment.
He clenched his fists tightly, looked at Li Shu, and his voice was a little hoarse when he spoke to Li Shu.
"Mr. Li Shu, I understand everything you said. I promise you!"
"If this is the case, our planet Mengla will become the enemy of the Emperor Star..."
Many star beasts were sacrificed on Mengla Planet this time, and the remaining ordinary people were unarmed.
Meng Yi was a little worried.
