"Your tone was a bit cold. Say it again." Jiang Zheyu spoke slowly, his amber eyes intently fixed on Shan Xun's face.
Why does this person always have such a furrowed brow? He already looks so fierce, and then he acts like someone owes him seventy or eighty thousand, which makes him look even fiercer.
Those brown eyes resembled a vast expanse of rosy clouds falling at dusk on a boundless planet, both gentle and radiant.
Dan Xun, as if possessed, spoke again: "What kind of tone is gentle?"
This time, the tone of his words seemed to carry a different kind of affection, and even his voice seemed to soften.
Just like falling in love with those tea-colored eyes that resemble the brilliant sunset clouds, one's heart warms along with that gentle sunset, and one's tone unconsciously softens.
"Mmm." Jiang Zheyu nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this. "The tone of that sentence was quite good, gentle and mild. Remember that tone from now on."
Dan Xun wondered, should he remember the feeling of falling in love with her brown eyes?
He turned his head slightly, feeling a bit unwell and uncomfortable.
The affection he had deliberately ignored was now unexpectedly stirred up by the female.
It was so obvious that he couldn't ignore it.
Actually, I liked her very much the first day I saw her; she was stunning at first sight.
At that time, the insect blood on the female's face was washed away, and it looked like her fair cheeks were stained pink, so beautiful and clean that she didn't belong to this desolate land.
He couldn't help but be drawn to it.
But he subconsciously suppressed all those feelings of liking.
He was merely a warrior existing in Zones -1 and -2, destined never to leave this place, nor to fall in love with any female.
Those feelings of irritability are actually caused by caring about what you like.
Danxun became even more agitated because he couldn't like females, and there was never a good outcome between them.
He didn't want the female to realize that he liked her.
“Second,” Jiang Zheyu said slowly again.
Shan Xun's sharp eyebrows furrowed slightly: "There's a second one?"
"Look at you, you've reverted to your old tone," Jiang Zheyu quickly interjected. "And so what if there's a second time? Didn't you say you could change it? Now you don't want to change it?"
After taking a deep breath, Shan Xun looked into Jiang Zheyu's tea-colored eyes and said, "Okay, go ahead."
These eyes are still very beautiful, yes, I like them very much.
The little females are very troublesome, but he likes them very much.
"Secondly, could you please stop frowning every day?" Jiang Zheyu glanced at him and quickly looked away. "Yes, you can frown at other people, but you can't frown at me."
"Okay," Shan Xun replied.
"And just now, you were deliberately speculating and slandering me." Jiang Zheyu continued quietly, "I said I wanted to be with beastmen because I like them, I want to be with them, I want to chat with them, not because of the physical needs you mentioned."
Is she really that thirsty? To imagine her as that kind of person.
Dan Xun lowered his eyes slightly. A female beast husband—isn't the existence of such a beast husband solely for serving females?
Perhaps no one has ever liked him, and he doesn't know how to like others.
Upon hearing this, Shan Xun responded softly, "I was wrong. I apologize to you."
Its tall body obediently lowered its head, as if its inferior bones had been broken.
Jiang Zheyu: ...
Jiang Zheyu felt that she might have gone a bit too far. After all that commotion, she didn't seem as angry as before.
So she slowly said, "It's good that you've explained it clearly."
"Are we still going to get the nutritional supplements now?" Shan Xun looked up at her again.
Even in this state, he still remembered her asking if she was hungry and if she wanted to drink nutritional supplements.
Jiang Zheyu's heart was inexplicably touched.
Wasn't she going too far?
"Okay, let's go." Jiang Zheyu nodded gently.
Throughout the journey, Danxun became unusually quiet, as if she wanted to avoid speaking as much as possible.
It was as if they were afraid that saying a single word would upset Jiang Zheyu.
But when Shan Xun asked, Jiang Zheyu wanted him to speak, otherwise she felt that there was still a conflict between them.
Moreover, the two of them remained silent, creating a tense atmosphere, which Jiang Zheyu disliked.
"Captain Shan, are you unhappy?" Jiang Zheyu glanced at Shan Xun from beside him. "Are you very dissatisfied with me?"
Dan Xun looked down at her, as if he had figured something out. His deep purple eyes were unfathomable. He pressed his large hand against the back of Jiang Zheyu's head, making her look at the road ahead, and slowly said, "No complaints, don't overthink it."
Jiang Zheyu was thus forced to turn his head and look ahead.
"Choose whatever nutritional supplements you want," Shan Xun said indifferently from the side.
Jiang Zheyu then picked out a few nutritional supplements.
The two of them walked back together.
Jiang Zheyu didn't actually want to have a conflict with Shan Xun. She wanted to ease the tension between them, since they would be spending more time together in the future.
She then spoke to Shan Xun casually, trying to ease the tension between them: "Captain Shan, where do you live?"
"I live across from you," Shan Xun replied casually.
Jiang Zheyu noticed that this person had indeed improved; his tone was no longer fierce, and it was alright now that it was calm.
"I see." Jiang Zheyu responded, drinking the nutrient solution in his hand. "I can purify a laboratory of orcs in an hour tomorrow. Please arrange a few more laboratories for me then."
"Can you handle it mentally?" Shan Xun glanced at her.
“I never make empty promises. I really can do it. Today you took me to the base's hospital, and the orc doctor said there would be no problem, right? Don't you believe me?” Jiang Zheyu said with a light smile.
"Okay, but do what you can, and don't be greedy," Shan Xun replied.
However, this base only has ten laboratories. Wouldn't the little female be able to purify all the orcs in the laboratories of this planetary base in 10 hours?
That means the little female can return to the capital, leave this place, and his mission will be completed.
The thought of Jiang Zheyu leaving so soon made him feel uneasy.
Let her purify only one lab tomorrow.
One laboratory can be purified in a day.
Ten days, it will be fine in ten days.
Jiang Zheyu, unaware of Shan Xun's thoughts, returned to her room after finishing the nutrient solution.
She didn't know about this desolate star; it truly lived up to its name.
There's a power outage and water outage here!
Jiang Zheyu was used to taking a bath every day and couldn't stand it for a while.
well.
