Meng Lu slapped his face. How could it be possible?
How could he, a colonel, be angry about the words of a mere civilian like her? He must be overthinking it.
After returning to the study, Rested couldn't concentrate on the documents. The female's words about leaving kept echoing in his mind.
Feeling bored, he picked up his phone and made a call.
"Hey, why did the colonel call me? It must be the Beast God appearing."
"Stop talking nonsense, it's annoying, let's go drink."
"Alas, I, the worry solver, have to go online again."
"Are you going or not?"
"Go, of course I will."
In a luxurious private room at the top bar in the Hillna Empire, two men in casual clothes sat facing each other and clinked their glasses.
The man opposite shook his glass and drank it all in one gulp. "The last time I saw you like that, I really felt like we were really breaking up."
Rest snorted coldly, "You acted well, Major General Galle is really majestic!"
Galle chuckled to himself, "Back then, you noticed something was amiss. All the members of your team were promoted, but we were the only two left. Finally, you came up with an idea to fake a breakup for the Emperor to see. Sure enough, I was promoted in less than half a year, and then I worked my way up to the rank of Major General. It's a pity for you, you're so capable, but you have to..."
There was no emotion on Resed's face. His family's achievements surpassed their master's, and the family still did not know how to restrain themselves. This would only accelerate the pace of their demise.
"The Colonel is not bad either, unlike you who are so busy."
Galle sighed, "How about I tell the Emperor tomorrow that you've been a colonel for so long that newcomers younger than you have already risen to your level. It'll be awkward to see you in the future."
"My affairs are not for the Major General to worry about."
Galle's face darkened, "Resed, you are addicted to acting! Why do you have to chat like this in private?" Then he looked at the table between the two of them, which must be three meters long!
"Are we talking across the galaxy?"
"Aren't you afraid of being photographed by paparazzi and being demoted by the emperor the next day?"
Galle sat down beside him, holding a glass of wine, and put his arm on his shoulder. "I'm talking to my brothers, why should they care? Besides, being able to deliver the photo to the emperor is a real skill."
Then he said with a gossipy look on his face, "You're not a big drinker, but you've already finished a bottle of liquor since you got here. Tell me! What's bothering you?"
"By the way, I heard you have a female at home? I wonder if she's also involved in your troubles!"
Rest's eyes trembled.
This small action was magnified several times in Galle's eyes.
"Something's wrong with you. Your expression changed the moment I mentioned her. Tell me now. Don't hide it, brother."
Rested's mind was filled with memories from the first time he met Meng Lu until now.
"What do you mean by love?"
Hearing this, Galle almost died of laughter. "No, brother, I was just guessing. I didn't expect it to be related to that female."
Rest glared at him, sloppily, and was blown out.
But if you know, then know! We can come up with some ideas together.
He put down the wine glass in his hand and leaned back on the soft sofa.
"When I first met her, she looked so pitiful. I guessed she was abducted by human traffickers and brought to the black boxing gym. Since I couldn't find her information, I didn't mention anything about her to the higher-ups. Then I found out she was pregnant.
A weak and pitiful female, unaware that her family was at home, so out of pity I kept her at the manor. But after spending time with her, I found that I had strange feelings for her, but I'm not sure if it's love. What do you think? "
There was no response from the other party.
Rest asked again, "What do you think?"
"Huh? Sorry, I've been thinking about something."
"What's the problem?"
"I wonder how a stern and cold-hearted Imperial Colonel could possibly be soft-hearted?"
Rested also fell silent.
"Or have you been interested in that female for a long time, but just didn't know it yet? Only recently did you notice when her emotions slowly overflowed?"
"I have no idea."
"Okay, you don't know, right? Then close your eyes now and I'll ask you a question. Think deeply about it before you answer me."
"Well." Rested closed his eyes, "You can ask now."
"Wait a moment."
Rested frowned slightly, wondering what he was doing at the moment.
"Ahem, okay, now let me ask you."
"Do you blush and your heart beat faster when you see a female?"
Rest frowned again. What was he asking? But after complaining, he thought about it seriously. Blushing? No! I feel embarrassed every time I see her, but that shouldn't be the case. As for the accelerated heartbeat, it is a little bit.
"Yes and no."
Galle was speechless. "Yes or no, you can only choose one."
"When I see her, my heart beats a little faster, but my face doesn't turn red."
"Are you embarrassed?"
"meeting."
"Do you always think about females?"
"Won't."
"Do you occasionally think of females?"
"meeting."
"Do you feel nervous and scared when a female is in danger?"
"A little bit."
"Do you feel empty, lonely, and cold at night? Do you want a female..."
What kind of nonsense were the questions Galle asked? They were getting more and more irrelevant. Resed opened his eyes and glanced at him. If he hadn't seen him, he wouldn't have known that this guy was holding a mobile phone and reading the words on it.
He delivered a merciless elbow strike.
"ah!"
Garer stood up from the ground, holding his chest. "Resed, you attacked me without honoring your martial ethics. I was worried about your love, but you stabbed your good brother in the back like this."
Rest didn't want to pay any attention to him. He glanced at the phone on the ground, which still displayed the question Galle had just asked, "Is this the solution you want to help me with?"
Gallagher glanced at him sheepishly.
"If I had known you were like this, I would have searched it myself on the Internet." After saying that, he picked up his coat and was about to leave.
"No! Brother, I haven't dated a female either, so how can I know what love feels like? You might as well search on your phone, but there is already a preliminary answer. Look, you are falling in love." As he said that, he picked up the phone and handed it over.
Rested looked at the results obtained above and his heart trembled again.
Is that true?
"Based on my experience, you're probably still struggling with love. If I can help you, I'm sure I can rescue you."
"What experience do you base this on?" Resed no longer believed him at all, and he even rescued her. Did he really want to be single?
"Hehe, of course it's the many years of combat experience." Galle scratched his head embarrassedly.
Resed chuckled, "I'm so stupid I can still sit here and listen to you for so long. I think I'm really crazy."
