Chapter 9 Chapter 9 (Revised)
Eerily quiet.
If Colonel Lu, the tool, knew that this would be the situation after his boss came in, he would never deliberately find excuses to stay outside.
This scene needed his lubrication.
It's a pity he's not here.
So without the help of General He, he and Lin Han stared at each other in silence for a long while. No one knew what they were thinking, but in the end, they only said one thing: "Yeah."
In fact, Lin Han himself knew that this was not appropriate.
But the content he read twice when he touched He Yunting's hand made him alert. What if the other party really had such thoughts about him? He was an omega and was now weaker than before. He had no chance of winning at all.
Lin Han continued to keep his distance from He Yunting and started talking about business: "Lieutenant Colonel Lu told me on the communicator that I had destroyed your sample immediately. I was planning to come to you to get it in a few days..."
I didn't expect you to come to my door on your own after such a short while.
Lin Han was surprised and felt a little guilty. He was just a mecha enthusiast and there was really no reason for him to disturb the admiral to come in person.
"I can't wait that long." However, the other party's words quickly made Lin Han understand why the other party was so anxious to come over. He Yunting said, "So I came to help you test it."
"Okay." Lin Han said, and moved the elevator to He Yunting. "General, please go up first. I'll be there soon."
Lin Han saw He Yunting's lips touch each other lightly, and he seemed to say something, but she was too far away from him... so she didn't hear clearly.
"General, what did you say? I can't hear you clearly." Lin Han didn't look at He Yunting when he said this, as if he felt that he was very sorry for asking the admiral to say it again even though he had clearly asked him to stay away from him.
After all, He Yunting was here to help him no matter what.
Lin Han finally took the initiative to take two steps forward: "Since you are here in person, please forgive me for the poor hospitality."
There was no expression of joy or anger on He Yunting's face, but his deep blue eyes were still looking at him.
"General, what did you just say?" Lin Han repeated.
He Yunting's voice was louder this time. Not only was it louder, but he also said it bluntly: "Are you in heat?"
Lin Han, who had just decided to treat the general politely out of guilt: "…………"
“…Yes.” I had kept such a distance from the other party because I didn’t want them to know, but I didn’t expect that I had miscalculated.
so.
Where exactly are the Imperial Admiral's olfactory cells located?
Lin Han fell into deep thought.
He was still thinking about how to respond when he heard He Yunting say again: "Should I avoid it?"
As He Yunting said this, he took a step back politely and restrainedly.
Lin Han was a little surprised.
The first time I met him, the admiral's inner thoughts were shocking. Even if He Yunting's thoughts were really unconscious at the time and he himself didn't react, it at least proved that he must have a good impression of me.
And when an alpha sees an omega in estrus whom he likes and even smells a hint of pheromones, he just keeps a straight face and shows great composure and says he will back off?
Lin Han was in mixed emotions, not knowing whether he should question whether there was something wrong with his mind-reading ability, or marvel at the admiral's amazing concentration.
But no matter what, at least the crisis before him has been resolved.
After all, He Yunting's intention in coming here this time was good.
"I've used the inhibitor, everything else is fine," Lin Han slowed down his tone, but still said cautiously, "General, do you have anything else to ask?"
Lin Han thought to himself that whenever He Yunting said something related to that night, he could take the opportunity to ask if the admiral had seen him before, or why he had some inappropriate thoughts about him when they met for the first time.
Even if it's a misunderstanding, at least it can be explained.
But if it's not a misunderstanding.
Is it really possible... that he fell in love with me at first sight?
Thinking of this answer, Lin Han first denied himself in his heart with self-mockery.
He was waiting for the other party's answer.
The general, who was invincible on the battlefield and had a murderous aura, thought for a long time after hearing this sentence.
The only sound in the empty repair room was the sound of the m2742 on standby.
The two men stood face to face, with the big guy who had fought in countless battles and brought countless honors to the admiral behind them, quietly accompanying them.
Lin Han looked at the silent He Yunting and couldn't help but wonder if what he said was too unkind.
After denying the fact of love at first sight, he didn't know where the hesitation in his heart came from. After all, no matter who says such things to you, you should feel offended or question them directly.
That's not right either.
For omega, the options in this multiple-choice question of "no matter who it is" definitely do not include He Yunting.
But the words have been spoken, there is no reason to take them back.
When Lin Han was thinking for the third time whether to change the topic and end the awkwardness of the moment, the admiral, who was like a sculpture, seemed to finally decide to speak.
He first reached out and pressed his right shoulder, but there was no pain on his face. Just as Lin Han remembered that this man seemed to be injured, he saw He Yunting put down his left hand. His face had a different expression than when they first met. His thin lips moved and he gave a response that he thought was very timely and considerate: "Drink more hot water."
"......?" Perhaps because he hadn't heard such fresh and unworldly concern for a long time, Lin Han was stunned for a moment, and replied with a suppressed smile, "Thank you, I will."
Is it really that he is too sensitive, or is it that I think too much?
This answer was beyond his expectations. Lin Han almost wanted to take off his gloves and find an excuse to touch the other person's hand to verify what the admiral really thought of him.
But he was soon shocked by his own idea. He calmed himself down and said to He Yunting again: "Then let's get started."
He Yunting didn't mention the matter again. The two of them tacitly explained it and got on the mecha one after another.
He Yunting is very familiar with his favorite general, but not very proficient in repairs. After waiting for Lin Han to enter the cockpit, he asked, "How can I cooperate with you?"
Once it came to his profession, Lin Han stopped thinking about it. He closed the hatch and walked closer to He Yunting. "I have already started it with the key. General, just connect it with the AI center with your mental power as usual. I will help watch it here. There are also surveillance cameras in the repair room, which will record it in real time."
"Okay." He Yunting walked to the driver's seat, sat down, and put on his helmet skillfully.
Lin Han tapped the screen twice with his gloved fingers: "Okay."
He took two steps back from He Yunting and saw that the other party was holding the joystick with his right hand. When he pressed it down, his palm trembled almost imperceptibly.
The other person's lips were pursed even tighter, as if he was enduring something.
Lin Han recalled the cold sweat on He Yunting's forehead that day of the dinner: "Is your injury..."
He Yunting said nothing, but the expression on his face gave the answer.
"Do you need my help?" Lin Han asked, although he himself didn't know how he could help He Yunting.
"Can you drive a mecha?" He Yunting suddenly asked.
Lin Han was stunned, then smiled bitterly: "General, my physique is D-, I can't open it. And there is no space..."
"I use my mental power to connect to the system," He Yunting said, "Although I am the only one using this mecha, the second cockpit can also control it."
"If you like."
Lin Han was silent.
How could he not have tried it?
Lin Han smiled bitterly and repeated: "General, I can't do it."
Not to mention driving it out, even when he was repairing the mecha and test-driving it, he would feel physically exhausted after operating it for a while. This was a top-level mecha, and even if his mental strength could drive this big guy, he could not even take a few steps.
"Do you want to try it?" He Yunting stopped his right hand on the joystick.
Lin Han looked up and saw that the admiral's right shoulder injury seemed to be quite serious. He seemed to have taken a breath when he said this.
He Yunting didn't urge him anymore.
"Okay." Perhaps seeing He Yunting's expression of trying hard to endure the pain but pretending to be calm, Lin Han finally agreed, "Then I'll go to the second cockpit."
He Yunting nodded slightly.
Lin Han walked towards the second cockpit, and when he turned around, he didn't see it. The tense expression on He Yunting's face finally relaxed a little.
This omega came too close.
What made He Yunting unbearable was not only the stinging pain in his right shoulder, but also the sweet fragrance that leaked out when Lin Han approached him.
And the word "you" that he kept saying made him feel hot all over.
Lin Han walked over quickly. Although the second cockpit had never been used, it was clean and tidy.
As soon as he sat in the driver's seat and put on his helmet, he heard He Yunting's voice coming from the headset: "Are you ready?"
Lin Han became nervous for no reason: "Yeah."
The second cockpit is located higher than the main cockpit. Sitting in the driver's seat, Lin Han can still see He Yunting's broad shoulders and iconic silver hair in front of him.
"Then I'll start."
Lin Han pursed his lips and his hands were sweating as he held the joystick.
Omegas in estrus are weaker and more fatigued than usual.
He closed his eyes.
It's not like I haven't worked during estrus before, so it's no big deal.
As soon as he thought of this, he suddenly felt much less tired.
He Yunting did not let him drive right away, but...
Across the cockpit, with her back to him, she released her pheromones.
It seemed as if He Yunting knew that releasing his pheromones directly face to face with an omega was too rude and impolite, so he waited until he entered the cockpit behind him before slowly and tentatively releasing some non-aggressive pheromones in an attempt to appease him.
Lin Han felt a different kind of lightness.
It doesn't feel like inhibitors forcibly suppressing the restless cells in the body, but rather like walking on cotton, with a soft feeling of weightlessness.
I am worried about falling, but I also want to indulge in it.
This is a natural instinct between living things, which seeps in little by little and gently comforts the pheromones that have been made irritable by the inhibitors.
"Lin Han." He Yunting called his name, his voice was low, like the cobalt blue water flowing under the ice in the cold winter, as clear as a gem.
He said, “Is it better now?”
