Chapter 73 Chapter 73 This is a life-saving talisman

Let’s talk about one.

Lu Zhiluan's confession was too down-to-earth. Jing Miao's eyes showed doubt for a moment, but only for a moment. His focus was on the first three words, and he agreed almost without hesitation.

"good."

After receiving the response, Lu Zhiluan raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

"It's your turn."

The young man's fair cheeks looked even more delicate against the backdrop of the light-colored rose in his arms, revealing a jade-like moistness. His cold and distant eyes became especially gentle at this moment, as if he had removed all his defenses and his heart and eyes were filled with only the person in front of him.

Jing Miao's eyes were dark, he took two steps forward, pulled both the person and the flower into his arms, and hugged them tightly. A piece of the puzzle in his heart seemed to have been found and was complete, and his heart beat rapidly.

There is no long, heart-wrenching, vow-like love talk that needs to fill two pages.

Lu Zhiluan rested his chin on the man's shoulder, quietly listening to the deep, intoxicating and infinitely intimate "I like you" echoing in his ears over and over again.

Each sentence was lighter than the last, but the emotions implied in them were deeper and heavier, finally turning into a light kiss on the earlobe.

The two hugged each other for a long time before separating and sitting side by side in the pavilion to open their gifts.

There were three boxes in the bag. Jing Miao opened the largest and heaviest one first.

A fist-sized insect stone cat head. The pitch-black insect stone has been turned into black diamonds with tiny starlight after being baked. The round and pointed cat ears stand on the round cat face, which is cute and blunt.

Lu Zhiluan was a little embarrassed: "Isn't it a bit ugly? It was my first time carving and I didn't have much experience. In fact, when it was just baked, the outline was crooked and the cat shape was not visible at all. Later, with the help of the machine tool master, it was polished a second time before it became what it is now."

The other two insect stones polished by professionals are more delicate than this one, and even the expressions on the cat's face are lifelike.

He was a half-baked monk and had only learned the basics. Under the guidance of an experienced master, he could only make a rough shape.

Jing Miao slowly stroked the kitten's ears with his fingers, looked at him sideways, and said softly: "No, it's very cute."

For a moment, he didn't know who he was praising. Lu Zhiluan's ears suddenly felt hot and his eyes shifted elsewhere.

"It's just a small ornament. You can put it anywhere you like." Lu Zhiluan said.

After putting away the insect stone, Jing Miao opened the second box. Inside was a pair of exquisite cufflinks with a stunning sci-fi mechanical core design, exuding a high-end, mysterious and cold tone, which unexpectedly matched his calm temperament.

Lu Zhiluan didn't show it on his face, but in fact he was secretly observing Jing Miao's expression with his remaining eyes.

I thought about what to give as a gift for a long time but still had no idea. Thanks to the tips from the omnipotent netizens, I finally spent a huge amount of money and decided on two pairs of out-of-print cufflinks.

Judging from the man’s reaction, he should be quite satisfied?

Jing Miao was more than satisfied. Even if the gift from someone he liked was just a handful of dirt, he would still feel it was of great significance. Moreover, it was obvious at a glance that a lot of thought had gone into getting these cufflinks.

"Thank you, I like it very much." Jing Miao came over and pecked his lips, saying with a smile in his eyes.

Lu Zhiluan secretly pursed his lips which still had a soft touch, his heart beating wildly.

It wasn't an illusion. Jing Miao seemed to become... a little clingy after we confirmed our relationship.

In the past, Lu Zhiluan really couldn't use the words "clingy" to describe Jing Miao.

Jing Miao always behaved like a gentleman in front of him, neither too distant nor offensive.

Now...

Admiral Jing was like a coal ball who had just transformed back into a normal person and had not yet adapted to the new environment. He temporarily put aside his aloofness and became very clingy.

What’s different is that this large coal briquette is very friendly.

After opening the gifts, the two walked hand in hand outside. Although they didn't see the beautiful fireworks in person, the deserted snowy field was still a perfect place for a date.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Jing Miao sent people to the door of their home and watched Lu Zhiluan go upstairs before leaving.

After returning home, Lu Zhiluan found a few empty vases, trimmed the flowers he brought back, and put them in the vases.

The little cat Meiqiu heard the noise and came out of its cat villa, walking to Lu Zhiluan in cat steps.

She tilted her head slightly, and her big eyes like glass beads watched his movements curiously.

Lu Zhiluan was in a good mood. Seeing this, he picked up the kitten, put a blue and white rose on its head, and said jokingly, "I'll give you one."

Meiqiu shook his head to shake the flowers off, and after playing with them with his claws for a while, he lost interest, turned around and ran into the room, came over with his favorite plastic mouse in his mouth, and looked up at Lu Zhiluan.

Lu Zhiluan knew that it wanted to play, so he picked up the mouse and threw it aside.

The kitten ran over and brought the food back with it in its mouth.

Lu Zhiluan poked its head and said with a smile: "Why are you becoming more and more like a puppy?"

Coal Ball turned a deaf ear and put the mouse in his hands.

Played with the kitten for a while.

Lu Zhiluan said to it: "We can see Sister Marshmallow tomorrow."

The kitten seemed to understand what was going on. It let out a low cry, then ran into the room holding its beloved little mouse in its mouth.

Lu Zhiluan shook his head helplessly and let it go.

The next morning, Lu Zhiluan sat on the sofa holding the coal briquettes and waited.

After a flash of light, a beautiful snow-white kitten appeared in the room.

The old father, Lu Zhiluan, burst into tears again and hugged the two cats and sucked them madly.

The father's love burst out, and he arranged all the delicious and fun things for the cat, for fear of letting the child down.

When Jing Miao called, Lu Zhiluan was combing the hair and cutting the nails of two kittens. He did not let go of the cats, but untied the light computer on his wrist, placed it on the coffee table and pressed the answer button.

The video was connected, and what came into Jing Miao's eyes was a black-haired young man wearing loose and comfortable home clothes, holding a kitten in his arms. The wide collar was tilted, revealing a small piece of his fair and beautiful collarbone, which slid down with the shaking movement. The white hidden under the clothes was so dazzling that General Jing's breathing stopped. He even forgot to say anything and couldn't take his eyes away.

The silence lasted for a long time. Lu Zhiluan thought the call was not connected. He looked up curiously and suddenly met the man's deep and dark eyes.

But he didn't know what was going on, and with an innocent face he reached out to adjust the computer.

When he got closer, the collar opened wider. Jing Miao forced himself to look away and asked in a normal tone, "What are you doing?"

Lu Zhiluan heard the sound and slowly sat back down. He picked up the cotton candy in his hand and greeted Jing Miao, "It's a good opportunity to introduce it to you. This is cotton candy."

Jing Miao stared at the kitten silently, then said calmly: "Is this your new kitten?"

Jing Miao didn't know about the existence of marshmallows and thought Lu Zhiluan had raised another one.

Lu Zhiluan didn't explain too much. He touched the kitten's head and said, "No, I've had it for a long time. I just brought it home today."

When Jing Miao was about to find out what Lu Zhiluan meant by this, Lu Zhiluan mentioned the kitten he met in the pet park again, "Come to think of it, that kitten looks quite similar to Marshmallow, except for the color of its eyes, which are green. But I always feel that it looks familiar. If I can see it again, I should be able to remember it."

Jing Miao had a subtle look on his face; he only found out about the pet park afterwards.

Unexpectedly, the person Lu Zhiluan rescued was Jing Dudu. When he investigated later, he found that Ms. Lan also took the cat to the park.

Judging from the butler's big mouth, it goes without saying that his mother already knows.

The two chatted for a while, and then there was a knock on Jing Miao's door. He was currently in the Alliance's office. Although his annual leave had already begun, he still had to go there in case of emergencies.

Jing Miao gave a few instructions, said he would come back to see him later, and then hung up the call.

After Lu Zhiluan trimmed the nails of the two kittens, he tidied himself up and prepared to go out.

Colleagues on duty at the research institute reported that several new animal cubs were feeling unwell. Lu Zhiluan lived nearby and had nothing to do during the day, so he volunteered to go and take a look.

Lu Zhiluan put on his coat and went downstairs. As soon as he walked out the door, he felt like he was being spied on again.

I turned around and looked around. There were a lot of people coming and going nearby. They all had normal expressions and were busy with their own things. No one's behavior was particularly suspicious.

Lu Zhiluan withdrew his gaze and was more cautious this time.

After he left, two people slowly walked out of the apartment door, looked in the direction Lu Zhiluan left, and whispered, "Is that him? He looks like a very energetic young man. Is he really that weird?"

"She's young, good-looking, works in a research institute, and is a veterinarian. She has all the qualifications, right? Why would the boss hire a veterinarian?"

"How would I know? The boss has been doing more and more outrageous things lately. Didn't he even steal someone else's..."

"Shh! Stop talking nonsense."

"What if someone hears us?"

"Let's go back and report to the boss." The two figures gradually went away.

Lu Zhiluan arrived at the research institute and examined the cubs. Fortunately, it was just a false alarm and there were no serious problems. A surgical procedure would be enough.

After leaving the research institute, Lu Zhiluan wandered around aimlessly outside. He wanted to try if someone was really following him. Although even the system did not detect anything abnormal, his intuition told him that this was not groundless.

The strange thing was that he deliberately chose to walk to a place where there were not many people, but he no longer felt that gaze.

Lu Zhiluan lowered his eyes and thought.

"Dr. Deer!"

Zhuo Lan's surprised voice came from the front.

Lu Zhiluan looked up and suddenly realized that he had arrived near the alliance headquarters without knowing when.

Zhuo Lan had just gotten off the Star Shuttle and was about to head to the headquarters when he spotted Dr. Lu daydreaming on the side of the road.

He was called by Jing Miao to be criticized because he poked a little and caused General Jing, who had just fallen in love, to be forced to work overtime. At this time, his resentment was the heaviest.

The moment he received the call, Zhuo Lan had already decided where to bury himself.

I didn't expect to meet Lu Zhiluan outside.

This is a life-saving talisman.

Zhuo Lan was determined to keep the person.

Zhuo Lan greeted him warmly: "Are you here to see General Jing? Come on, I'll take you upstairs."

Lu Zhiluan said, "I just happened to be passing by. The general must be busy, so I won't bother him."

Zhuo Lan tried to persuade him to stay: "It's not busy, not busy at all. It will be over soon. Just wait for him to leave together."

Before Lu Zhiluan could refuse, Zhuo Lan pushed him towards the headquarters gate.

Zhuo Lan understood and persuaded him with reason: "If he knew you were here to pick him up, he would be so happy."

After hearing this, Lu Zhiluan paused, then followed Zhuo Lan silently.

Zhuo Lan brought Lu Zhiluan to the door of the commander's office.

He pressed the access button and pushed Lu Zhiluan to the door to block him.

Jing Miao, who was inside the door, looked at the slowly opening door with a stern face, and was about to say something venomous.

However, the person outside the door was not Zhuo Lan who poked Lu Zi, but Lu Zhilan who looked puzzled.

Oh, the one who stabbed Louzi is hiding behind.

Ling Zhuolan behind him spoke quickly: "Dr. Lu has come from afar to see you, you should entertain him well, and we can talk about other unimportant matters after the new year." Without waiting for Lu Zhilan to react, he pushed him in, closed the door considerately, and slipped away.

Lu Zhiluan: “…”

Jing Miao: “…”
