Chapter 25
After seeing the current He Yunting, Lin Han's previous thoughts disappeared completely.
——He began to wonder if he was going crazy because he had just arrived at the base and was not used to the climate there.
Perhaps it was because I frequently read He Yunting's inner thoughts that I always had a different attitude towards him. I wanted to know more and explore more.
Relying on the fact that he must be different from He Yunting, he couldn't help but want to use this ability to explore other things.
Even if he knew about mind reading, He Yunting didn't even have the right to refuse.
He didn't think about whether the other party wanted to be explored by him or was willing to talk to him.
Human beings are inherently complex creatures. Even though everyone calls for sincerity, they will not reject roses woven from lies and falsehoods.
But He Yunting didn't know about this, so he didn't even have the chance to lie - what's more, he was still honest, even though it was so difficult for him to communicate with others.
Lin Han adjusted his breathing in the quiet air, and all those irrational cells cooled down.
When he looked into He Yunting's deep blue eyes again, he finally turned back into his sober self.
He Yunting has many identities.
Some of them were things Lin Han had faced before, and some were things Lin Han knew nothing about.
He can be a person who is tongue-tied when facing himself, or he can be a person who swears loyalty to the empire in the admiration of thousands of people.
He can be someone who can't even dance but is eager to teach himself, or he can be a cold-faced leader who has the final say on the training ground of the base.
He could have many, many possibilities.
But no matter which he is, He Yunting is He Yunting.
He doesn't need to be controlled by himself, nor does he need to let himself read his mind. As for the answer of whether you like it or not, that is another topic.
Lin Han silently shifted his gaze from the other person's eyes to the wound.
I only have one thought now.
He just wanted to ask the other party if the injury on his right shoulder still hurt.
-
After figuring this out, Lin Han felt much more relaxed.
He finally returned to his former self.
Lin Han did not go any further, but just looked at He Yunting from a polite social distance.
He said again: "Does it hurt?"
He Yunting's hands froze.
After putting on his shirt, he stood up and took his coat and put it on, until he was back to being the same person he was when he first met Lin Han, arrogant, cold, and distant.
He doesn't need others to know about his injury, he is still that shining person.
"It's okay." This time He Yunting didn't say directly that it didn't hurt.
Lin Han was about to say that was good, but then he heard He Yunting add: "It doesn't hurt much. The wound has healed a lot. But the medicine has been changed, so Mr. Lin doesn't need to see it anymore."
This sentence conveyed another potential meaning to Lin Han. If the wound had not been bandaged, he would even show it to Lin Han - He Yunting seemed to want to prove to Lin Han that he really didn't feel much pain.
Lin Han nodded, but he suddenly felt a little more guilty.
He shouldn't have rashly asked questions about whether she liked it or not, and he shouldn't have had those inexplicable emotions afterwards.
Even if he tried to use the hug from He Yunting during his susceptible period as an excuse, he couldn't completely exonerate himself.
Lin Han looked down at her hands wearing white gloves, and finally curved her eyes towards He Yunting, with her brows tinged with her usual gentleness.
"I haven't adapted to the base well in the past two days. I'm sorry to have caused you trouble," Lin Han smiled at He Yunting, "I wanted to talk to the general about this today."
He Yunting seemed not to have expected that Lin Han was just saying this, and he said "Oh" very slowly.
The relationship between the two seemed to have taken a step back. Lin Han no longer had any inexplicable emotions for an answer, and He Yunting did not continue to hug him in his arms without saying anything like he did during the susceptible period.
Lin Han thought, crossing the line will indeed make people lose their minds.
"The general—"
"I--"
They both spoke at the same time.
Lin Han politely let He Yunting speak first.
"I didn't add caramel." He Yunting said with his eyes wandering.
Lin Han opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know how to respond.
He saw He Yunting's lips move slightly, as if he wanted to add something. His upper and lower lips parted slightly, but eventually became straight again.
But Lin Han vaguely recognized that the other party's lips were moving "right".
Considering He Yunting's expression at the moment, he should want to say "sorry".
Lin Han felt as if his heart was pinched again, neither lightly nor heavily. Thinking back to the thoughts he had just had in the corridor, he didn't even understand where they came from.
He Yunting wanted to apologize to him.
Just this realization made Lin Han's face turn red.
Lin Han said hurriedly: "It's okay - I don't mean anything else. If the general likes it, don't worry too much."
After hearing this, the other party looked at Lin Han again.
"The meals at the base are not rich enough." He Yunting suddenly said.
The topic changed so quickly that Lin Han couldn't keep up. He also didn't understand why He Yunting suddenly started criticizing the food at the base. Isn't this the place he is most familiar with?
Lin Han's eyelashes moved, and she said truthfully: "I think it's pretty good."
He Yunting was silent for a while, and when he spoke again, his voice was obviously different from before - he seemed to want to be less cold and to make his tone gentler.
But He Yunting had rarely laughed in all these years and had no idea what to do. So what reached Lin Han's ears was a strange but tried-to-be-soft tone.
His voice was low and his speech was slower than before: "I don't have it here. But you... can go find Lu Anhe."
"Is there any mission?"
"It's not a mission." He Yunting finally found a new speaking speed that was suitable for the moment, and he spoke much more fluently.
He seemed to want to try to raise the corners of his lips, but he was afraid that his expression would scare Lin Han, so he gave up in the end.
"There are a lot of snacks where Lu Anhe lives." He Yunting said, "You can go to him and he will give them to you."
Last time I gave you snacks, you didn’t get angry; so this time, can you let me be cunning and do it again?
Lin Han was stunned.
It turned out that he had already noticed that I had other emotions, but he still wanted to tell myself not to be angry.
This time, Lin Han did not hesitate. With a smile in his eyes, he said sincerely, "I'm really not angry, General."
-
After saying goodbye to He Yunting, Lin Han felt much more at ease.
Even the nutritional supplements at night became less difficult to swallow, and after using the same bed for two days, he finally had a good night's sleep.
The next day, after Lin Han finished washing up, changed his clothes and prepared to work, there was a knock on the door.
Lu Anhe held a variety of snacks in his hands and presented them to Lin Han with a smile: "Good morning, Mr. Lin."
Lin Han looked at the thing in his hand and wanted to laugh: "The general told me to go to you to get it."
And he actually doesn't like snacks that much.
Lu Anhe said: "But today the boss warned me that there were too many snacks in my room, and if I didn't clean some of them up, he would deduct money from me."
His tone was very cheerful, without any trace of fear.
Lin Han took it, thanked him, and then thought of the tone in which He Yunting said this yesterday, and his mood brightened.
“You’re welcome, thank you. I also want to thank Mr. Lin for letting me avoid punishment. Killing two birds with one stone.” Lu Anhe, who had successfully finished the snacks, waved at Lin Han. “Then I’ll go to the command room first. See you later.”
Lin Han watched Lu Anhe walk away humming a little tune, put away the snacks he had brought, and went out as well.
He didn't need to go to the base first today, but instead went to the mecha warehouse to confirm the functions of several batches.
The mecha hangar and the selection base were in two directions, closer to the logistics team. It was early morning and most people in the base were either in morning training or assigned to the first and second bases to assist in the pilot selection. The further Lin Han walked in that direction, the fewer people he met.
When he was about halfway to the mecha hangar, Lin Han passed through the corridor and unexpectedly heard a familiar voice calling him.
"Mr. Lin from the research institute?"
Lin Han didn't expect to meet this person, because he shouldn't be here at this time.
He saluted respectfully and said, "The general's adjutant just left for the command room. If you want to find them, you can go directly there."
"Mr. Lin, you're welcome." Wen Tianyao said with a smile, "I came here because I was bored. I don't need to tell too many people. I just want to ask Mr. Lin if you can show me the way so we can go together."
Lin Han was always a bit stubborn when it came to work. He smiled politely at first and said, "But I have to go to the mecha hangar now..."
Wen Tianyao said in a somewhat artificial voice, "But I'm not in a hurry. I'm also curious about the mecha hangar. If Mr. Lin doesn't mind me standing aside, you can take me to have a look."
Lin Han frowned almost imperceptibly.
He always felt something was odd.
Wen Tianyao said this and politely made a gesture to Lin Han to invite him in.
He also said: "The general said Mr. Lin has mysophobia, so he doesn't need to take off his gloves."
Lin Han's heart moved.
He Yunting's injury has not healed yet, and the reason why it has become difficult to heal is because he was tricked at the prince's dinner party.
If I could…
Lin Han curled the corners of his lips, respectfully took off his gloves, and placed his palm on it——
"Not at all. It is my honor to be able to shake hands with His Royal Highness the Prince."
[Is this the omega that He Yunting likes?] 】
[Perhaps it would be easier to start with him.] 】
Wen Tianyao's voice rang in Lin Han's ears.
He thought, maybe he could really help He Yunting.
The author has something to say: The next chapter will definitely be long.
When I was writing the last chapter, I felt it was going pretty smoothly. I just wanted to write about Hanhan having thoughts that were inconsistent with his daily behavior because he was confused. As a result, the last few sentences had some problems with expression, and it looked a bit ooc. I have changed it. If you are interested, you can take a look. It’s okay if you don’t want to read it.
