Chapter 30 Chapter 30 I got up quickly and ate the meal cooked by General Jing...
At ten o'clock in the evening, Dr. Lu, who had been busy all day, could finally take a break.
Lu Zhiluan came out of the bathroom, all wet, and walked towards the room while drying his hair.
The system in my head is being upgraded, and there are occasional electronic beeps.
A lot of small animals have been rescued these days, and the illustrations are now one-third brighter.
After the system calculated the points, it suggested that the treatment technique could be upgraded first, and the remaining points could be exchanged for some rare herbs specially provided by the mall. Lu Zhiluan agreed.
It is worth mentioning that Lian Xi, the little mermaid, is really grateful. Since the day he woke up, he has never stopped wanting to repay his gratitude. The system can deposit thousands of gratitude points every day.
Together with the bonus promised by the research institute, Lu Zhiluan used it all to pay off the loan he owed for running a nursing home.
The red number on his debt has been decreasing, and he feels that he has been walking more lightly lately.
This is what is called being debt-free.
In the room.
The chubby little cat was facing away from Lu Zhiluan. In front of it was a holographic image projected by a computer. The little cat would tap the computer with its paws from time to time.
"Doctor Lu, are you back?"
Zhuo Lan in the projection looked at Lu Zhiluan who was behind the kitten, and waved at him with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Jing Miao paused and stopped what he was doing.
Lu Zhilan walked over, picked up the kitten, and said indifferently, "Hmm." His attitude was neither cold nor enthusiastic. If it was someone he didn't know well, he would probably be embarrassed by his words. But after experiencing the hearty gossip at the banquet, Zhuo Lan felt it was magical.
Dr. Lu is the embodiment of being cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
The two chatted briefly, and soon the kitten stretched out its paw and hung up the call.
Zhuo Lan's voice on the other end was ruthlessly cut off before he could finish speaking.
Lu Zhiluan: “…”
The child has indeed grown up and has learned to be jealous. He forgets about his father when he sees his friends.
Lu Zhiluan picked up the kitten with both hands and rocked it. "Why are you so stingy? You don't even want me to chat with your new friend."
Lu Zhiluan said unhappily, "You and I have never had a video call..."
Jing Miao: “…” Childish.
Zhuo Lan would call and talk to Meiqiu almost every few days. Lu Zhiluan initially thought that he was just being polite when he said he got along well with Meiqiu, but he didn't expect that the man and the cat actually got along well.
Their communication was brief, a few minutes at most.
Usually Zhuo Lan would say some teasing words, and Meiqiu would occasionally poke the optical computer as a response.
Sometimes Zhuo Lan just turns on the video and watches cats.
Lu Zhiluan watched from the sidelines a few times, but after it happened so many times, he stopped caring. It was rare for a kitten to be interested in something other than toys, and it didn't lose anything. How could a commander of the Alliance really get any Alliance secrets from a dumb kitten?
However, watching the little cat poking the optical computer, Lu Zhiluan felt more and more that Coal Ball had a very high IQ.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhiluan put the cat aside, turned on the computer, took out a spare one from the bedside table, placed it in front of the cat, dialed the video, and soon two electronic screens were projected in the room.
One is Lu Zhiluan, and the other is a cute little cat face.
Lu Zhiluan poked the kitten and urged it, "Hurry up and poke the optical computer to respond to me."
Jing Miao raised his eyes and looked at him: "..."
How old is this person?
Glancing at the young man's expectant face, Jing Miao paused and sighed silently in his heart.
Reach out your claws and poke.
"Hehehe" Lu Zhiluan let out a few satisfied laughs as he got what he wanted.
Jing Miao couldn't bear it any longer, so he climbed onto the young man's chest and manually shut him up.
Lu Zhiluan kissed the kitten's paw, tucked the kitten into his arms, covered it with a blanket, and kissed the kitten's furry head. "Okay, I won't bother you anymore. Go to sleep."
*
Tick.
Water drops fell into the calm lake surface, creating ripples one after another.
Lu Zhiluan opened his eyes and saw a room layout that was familiar yet a little strange.
This is his home in the original world.
Did he wear it back again?
Lu Zhiluan asked, "System?"
There was no answer in my mind, nor was I aware of the system's existence.
Lu Zhiluan opened the door and walked into the living room. He looked around but found no trace of his cotton candy and coal briquettes.
It seemed as if he was the only one left in the huge space.
Is it a dream?
Lu Zhiluan pinched his arm hard. There was no pain, but the touch was still there; he could touch himself.
"Dong dong dong..." The sound of slow and steady footsteps was heard.
Lu Zhiluan looked towards the door and saw someone outside.
The door handle turned slightly, and with a "click", the door opened.
Lu Zhiluan met a pair of deep and sharp eyes. The visitor's eyes flickered slightly, like a lonely and cold star hanging in the sky.
Lu Zhiluan thought to himself, it must have been a dream.
Otherwise, how could he see the person in the photo on the mall’s big screen appear in his own home.
"Lu Zhiluan?"
The man's deep, magnetic voice rang out from the door, causing Lu Zhilan's ears to feel numb.
Lu Zhiluan quietly touched his itchy earlobe and asked in surprise: "Do you know me?"
Although the man in the dream also gave her a sense of oppression, Lu Zhiluan was not worried about what would happen to him. After all, dreams were always bizarre and intermittent.
Even though he is still in the house now, he may appear in the distant universe and galaxy in the next moment, or be chased by strange creatures, and then wake up from the bed by stepping on empty air while escaping.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhiluan grew bolder and asked in a more casual tone, "Aren't you going to come in?
When Jing Miao heard this, his eyes darkened and he walked in.
The young veterinarian in front of him was not afraid of him.
How come in reality I don’t even dare to look at one photo.
General Jing was very calm about opening his own door but ending up in someone else's house, and didn't show the slightest bit of surprise.
He knew very well that he was dreaming, but he didn't expect that there would be another person in his dream this time.
The chaotic scene he imagined had not changed. Although Lu Zhilan was a little confused, it was not much.
While he was wondering, Jing Miao had already arrived in front of him.
A shadow fell in front of him. Lu Zhiluan raised his head slightly and saw the man's handsome chin.
Without thinking, Lu Zhiluan directly expressed his doubts, "What did you eat to grow so tall?"
The voice was very soft, but Jing Miao heard it clearly and pretended not to hear it.
Guests are welcome, and even in dreams, we must be polite. Lu Zhilan pointed to the sofa in the living room and said, "Please sit down. Would you like tea or coffee?"
Jing Miao was also unceremonious: "Tea, thank you."
Lu Zhiluan walked to the tea machine at the water bar, took out tea leaves to make tea, and the hot water fell into the cup, raising a white mist.
Is this dream a little too real?
Lu Zhiluan stared at the tea leaves that were gradually unrolling in the hot water, thinking absentmindedly.
Sitting on the sofa, Jing Miao looked around the strange house without any concealment.
The style is the same as the owner of the house.
The house is not big, but it is well maintained, with comfortable lighting and a clean and tidy layout without appearing rigid.
The furniture and walls are all in cool colors. At first glance, it looks like a cold style, but a closer look reveals the owner's careful thoughts.
All kinds of strange little animal ornaments and small potted plants always appear in unexpected places, full of vitality and vigor.
Soon Lu Zhiluan came back with two cups of hot tea.
No one spoke first. In the quiet space, only the tea was steaming.
Lu Zhiluan tapped the table, wondering why he hadn't woken up from this dream yet.
"Is this your real home?" he heard the man next to him ask.
"yes."
"Living alone?"
Lu Zhiluan shook his head and said, "There is another cat." After thinking for a while, he said, "Two."
Coal briquettes also count as one.
"Are you a veterinarian?"
"no."
Lu Zhiluan subconsciously denied it. It wasn't like that before he traveled through time, but it was like that after he traveled through time. He was a half-baked person who relied entirely on the system.
After hearing this, Jing Miao lowered his eyes secretly, not knowing what he was thinking.
That's not right. Why do I feel like I have to answer every question? He is not a criminal.
Lu Zhiluan reacted, straightened his back slightly, and looked at the man, "Who are you and what's your name?"
The man raised his eyebrows slightly, "Don't you know who I am?"
Lu Zhiluan said confidently, "I don't know."
He ran into his dream for no apparent reason.
"Jing Miao."
Lu Zhiluan frowned: "Are you General Jing?"
Jing Miao: “Yes.”
After asking, Lu Zhiluan felt that he had done something unnecessary, because it was the man in the photo that he dreamed of, and in his subconscious mind, the man's identity was that General Jing.
"Gurgle~" His stomach suddenly rumbled and Lu Zhiluan lowered his head in embarrassment.
No, how could this dreamer still cry out in hunger?
Jing Miao said calmly: "Are you hungry?"
Lu Zhiluan covered his stomach and said helplessly: "Yes..."
The man immediately stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and asked solemnly, "Where is the kitchen?"
Lu Zhiluan raised his hand, "Over there."
Then Lu Zhiluan looked at General Jing indifferently, opened his refrigerator, washed vegetables and cooked.
A tall and straight figure was busy in the kitchen, while Lu Zhiluan was fidgeting on the sofa.
How did it develop into this...
In a blink of an eye, he was already sitting at the dining table.
There are three steaming dishes and one soup on the table, which are delicious and appetizing. Just looking at them will whet your appetite.
Lu Zhiluan: “…”
My hands are almost twisted into rubber knots and I can’t wake up from this dream.
The man sat down opposite her, still wearing his apron. His full chest muscles under his shirt were clearly visible due to the apron that didn't fit him properly. Below that was a very thin and narrow waist. Lu Zhiluan's eyes were shifty, and he didn't want to look.
"Aren't you hungry?" A pair of chopsticks was handed to him.
Lu Zhiluan came to his senses, took it, and thought to himself that he was truly a traitor.
While others are busy cooking, he is here admiring the male model's body.
The two of them looked at each other in silence and somehow had a fairly harmonious meal.
Just when Lu Zhiluan thought he would continue living in the dream.
The scene changed, and he opened his eyes on the bed. The little black cat was sleeping soundly in his neck, and a small ball of warmth came over from his neck.
It was already bright outside the window.
Lu Zhiluan raised his hand and touched the kitten, as if to confirm its authenticity.
Everything that happened in the dream is still vivid in my mind, as if I had really experienced it.
Lu Zhiluan called the system in his mind.
The system quickly replied: "I'm here."
This time I really woke up.
Hearing a few shouts of "get rich" coming from downstairs, Lu Zhiluan stretched himself, got out of bed and washed up.
Unexpectedly, I slept very comfortably during this long and strange dream, without feeling tired at all.
Soon, the sound of water running in the bathroom was heard.
The little cat sleeping soundly on the bed immediately opened its eyes, its eyes clear and bright.
