As the one being praised, Gu Zhilin felt a little embarrassed and could only awkwardly smile along, offering a few words of modesty.
General Zhu was very busy, so after he had a clear understanding of Gu Zhilin, he let the two of them leave.
But before leaving, Gu Zhilin stared at General Zhu for a while and said, "General Zhu, have you... been feeling unwell lately?"
General Zhu looked at the young man in front of him with suspicion and did not answer immediately, but asked, "What? You're a doctor?"
Gu Zhilin shook his head: "Judging from your appearance, I'm afraid you have some lung problems. Have you been feeling tightness in your chest lately?"
General Zhu hadn't paid much attention at first, but upon hearing this, his expression turned serious: "How did you know?"
Gu Zhilin said, "When you came in, I noticed that your forehead was slightly red and purple, which is a sign of lung problems. If it's convenient, it would be best to have a doctor take a look."
General Zhu patted his lungs and said, "I have been experiencing some chest tightness lately. I thought it was because of those little bastards, but my AI hasn't detected any abnormalities..."
Gu Zhilin was unaware that the AI also had the function of monitoring human health, since the AI he used was the simplest and most basic one.
However, he still insisted, "If it's convenient, please have a doctor do a check-up."
Lu Jin'an frowned upon hearing this, and seeing that General Zhu seemed somewhat disbelieving, he said, "General Zhu, Zhi Lin wouldn't speak carelessly. You'd better have the army doctor examine you."
Hearing Lu Jin'an say the same thing, General Zhu could see that Gu Zhilin was genuinely concerned about him, so he said, "Alright, I'll notify the military doctors to come and examine me right now."
Having received a positive response, Gu Zhilin felt relieved and left General Zhu's office with Lu Jin'an.
Stepping out of Zhu Jiangshuai's office, Lu Jin'an asked疑惑地问道, "You just said Zhu Jiangshuai's forehead was red and purple? I didn't see that. Is he really sick? Is it serious?"
“Such subtle color variations are not noticeable to those who are not experts in physiognomy,” Gu Zhilin continued. “Since it has already manifested on the face, the condition is probably not minor, but it shouldn’t be too serious. Now that it has been discovered, early treatment is the best course of action.”
As the two walked out of the office building, Gu Zhilin suddenly realized that Lu Jin'an slowed down after he said those words.
Sensing that the other person was clearly lagging behind, Gu Zhilin stopped and turned to look at Lu Jin'an.
But Lu Jin'an was standing there, looking at him with an expression he couldn't understand: "What's wrong?"
Lu Jin'an stared intently at Gu Zhilin, her expression hesitant and unspeakable.
Hearing Gu Zhilin's question, he was stunned for a long time before he finally spoke: "You just mentioned face reading..."
"Hmm, what's wrong? I'm a Taoist priest, face reading is a basic skill for me. You want me to take a look at you? Don't worry, I've checked you, you're in good health, there's nothing wrong with you." Gu Zhilin thought the other person was worried about his health, so he stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder reassuringly.
He hadn't noticed before because Lu Jin'an was a beta, but now he could always smell a faint minty fragrance when he was near Lu Jin'an.
He liked the scent, but his limited knowledge of gender told him that it was Lu Jin'an's pheromones. No matter how much he liked it, he couldn't show it, let alone ask her to let him smell it.
That would be no different from being a hooligan.
So he subconsciously ignored the smell.
Lu Jin'an didn't notice Gu Zhilin's unusual behavior, and simply asked softly, "When I first met you, you said you could tell from my face that I would suffer in love?"
Gu Zhilin felt a little embarrassed when this topic came up suddenly.
These were the words he said to Lu Jin'an at the time.
"Um... what's wrong? You want to... start a relationship?"
Lu Jin'an frowned slightly: "So what you're saying is true?"
Gu Zhilin was taken aback by his seriousness: "You really want to be in a relationship!"
After he finished speaking, he looked intently at Lu Jin'an's face, and then mumbled a few words that Lu Jin'an couldn't understand.
Finally, he spoke up, "I didn't realize! You've really fallen for Hongluan. I thought you only had warships, training, and the army on your mind. I didn't expect you to have someone you really like so quickly."
Gu Zhilin finished speaking with a smile, then added with some concern, "Although I said those words last time to refuse blind dates, I wasn't lying. If you don't value true feelings, your love life will naturally be fine. But if you really fall for someone... I'm afraid you'll suffer a bit."
Gu Zhilin felt a little regretful, not expecting that his brother would actually have someone he liked, and that his love life would be so bumpy.
Lu Jin'an was even more frustrated. Her sweetheart was right in front of her, but he told her that her love life was full of obstacles. What should she do?
He was very distressed, having never encountered anything like this in his more than twenty years of life.
Seeing Lu Jin'an's increasingly grim expression, even showing signs of hurt.
Gu Zhilin comforted her, saying, "Although I don't know which girl is so lucky to have caught your eye, don't worry. As long as I'm here, I won't let you suffer too much. When the time comes, find her birth date and time, and I'll set up a peach blossom formation for you. Maybe it will help you suffer less."
Lu Jin'an was speechless at Gu Zhilin's kindness. He took a deep breath before saying, "No, it's not a girl."
Gu Zhilin was taken aback. Not a girl?
He then quickly added, "It's okay if it's a man, don't worry, I don't discriminate against homosexuals."
Lu Jin'an was even more frustrated: "He's not gay."
Gu Zhilin, whose mindset was still stuck in the 21st century, finally realized that the other person probably didn't like Alhpa, so he scratched his head awkwardly and said, "It's okay, I should be able to help anyone."
Lu Jin'an stared at Gu Zhilin for a long, long time before slowly saying, "I hope you can really help."
Gu Zhilin, who hadn't considered the target as himself, patted his chest and assured him, "Don't worry, I'm pretty good at formations, but I need to check on the other party's situation first."
"If it's really not suitable, it wouldn't be right for me to set up a peach blossom formation for you."
Lu Jin'an's gaze never left this person. He recalled Duan Nao's judgment, then gave a slight smile and said, "Don't worry, we're definitely a good match."
Gu Zhilin looked up at the person in surprise. Although they hadn't known each other for long, Gu Zhilin felt that he knew the person fairly well.
But this was the first time I'd ever seen such a smile on this person's face.
He was stunned for a moment.
Seeing that he didn't move, Lu Jin'an was a little worried that the man had seen through her thoughts, and her heart skipped a beat.
Did I just make it too obvious?
He asked somewhat nervously, "What's wrong?"
