Pretending to be innocent
Even though he tried his best to look away and suppress his restlessness, Chu Yanbing could still sense the panic of the person beside him.
"It's not the right time yet," he muttered to himself.
His icy blue eyes instantly turned deep and dark, as if they contained a deep-sea whirlpool, with turbulent waves surging beneath the calm surface.
As her practice with the mecha improved, Alina snapped out of her daze and felt the slightly warm hair near her ear. Her first thought was: Could he also be interested in her?
But apart from the hair-stroking gesture, the other person did not do anything else out of line.
So, it must be an illusion?
She's not a gold coin or some kind of healing elixir, so how could everyone like her?
No, she can indeed be considered a miracle cure for injuries, but no one in this world knows that yet.
So, it's just an illusion, umm.
The little sprite in my mind nodded its big head in agreement, affirming its conclusion.
Time flew by, and Alina was ejected from the holographic capsule before she could even learn how to pilot the mecha. After lunch, she habitually went back to her bedroom for a nap.
Alina's established biological clock suddenly went out of control for some reason. As she turned over for the third time, she suddenly opened her eyes with a whoosh. She realized what she had overlooked earlier!
Wasn't she standing inside the mech just now? When did she sit in the pilot's seat? How did she get in there?
Also, what exactly is that strange feeling when you connect to the mech?
Alina couldn't find the answer to the last question and had to ignore it, but she could easily recall the first two questions once she regained her senses—she must have been carried away.
Why did he hug her?
Alina couldn't understand it, or rather, she didn't want to think about it that way.
One fluffy, two fluffy, three fluffy...
Zzz~
In the living room.
"Big Tiger, why are you bald?!"
Alina was both surprised and heartbroken to see the giant tiger's tail missing a tuft of fur.
"Awoo~" He was caught by the marshal.
The big head rubbed against Alina's waist affectionately, and Lu Jingbai narrowed his eyes with pleasure, but his voice sounded pitiful.
Before Alina could say anything, Pei Jingnian interrupted Lu Jingbai's "spellcasting" with a loud "Woohoo!"
I'm injured too, look!
The fox's voice was already delicate and soft, but under Pei Jingnian's deliberate control, it became even sweeter and softer.
"Da Hong, you're bald too!?"
Although only a small tuft of fur was missing from the fiery red fox tail, and it didn't disappear from the root so that the skin and flesh were not visible, it did have a depression the size of a thumb.
Alina stroked the fluffy fox's tail with a hint of heartache and asked, "What happened?"
A sly glint flashed in the fox's slightly watery eyes. It scratched the air with its claws in a somewhat fierce (and cute) manner, then got up and ran towards the kitten sitting on the table.
Just as Pei Jingnian was gesturing, Lu Jingbai successfully stuck his tail into Alina's empty hand.
He's bald too, so we should touch him!
Alina was busy first calming down the whining tiger before turning back to watch the fox's gestures.
The tiger's tail, which was being "held," slid outwards slightly, and the yellow-and-black striped tail successfully wrapped around the other person's wrist several times.
The yellowish-brown downy hairs floating at the tips swayed happily in the air.
Unconsciously, Alina squeezed the thick tail in her hand, her entangled hand making a fuss. She wondered if she had misunderstood: "You mean, the little cutie scratched your fur all bald?"
Feeling the strange sensation from the tail, Lu Jingbai's face turned red, his mind went blank, and he completely ignored the fox gesturing to him to "identify" the "criminal kitten".
Pei Jingnian glared at the deaf tiger, thinking to himself: It seems he can only rely on himself!
"Woo-hoo." The fox nodded, confirming that it was indeed the "cat" that had scratched it!
The long-haired kitten on the table remained calm, its eyes lowered as it watched the fox, who was "accusing the villain first," with a look of disdain that only the fox and the audience could see.
He pinched the tail in his palm and successfully broke free from the tiger tail bracelet just as the other person was trembling.
She glanced disapprovingly at the fox, which was several times her size, then looked with pity at the little cutie, whose tail was only as long as her arm, and retorted.
"This little cutie isn't even as long as your tail, how could it possibly hurt you? No, it could hurt you all!" With a tender touch, Alina picked up the kitten, rubbed its head, and then looked up at the big fox in front of her, disapprovingly lecturing, "Lying is not a good thing."
"Meow." Chu Yanbing lowered her voice and spoke softly at the right moment, sounding very aggrieved, while her tail affectionately rubbed against the other's collarbone.
"Okay, okay, I know you didn't scratch me." Alina continued to comfort the little cutie, rubbing her cotton candy-like head. "You've never used your claws before. You're such a good girl, how could you possibly challenge those two big guys, Tiger and Red?"
Pei Jingnian was stunned: Of course he wouldn't reach out his claws at you!
He'll only target his rival in love!
Although Pei Jingnian now clearly knows that Alina mistook the Marshal's mimicry for his beast form, but! Chu Yanbing is a Marshal! A beastman who can become a Marshal, even if he is a cat, is no ordinary cat!
And how could she not sense that the human form was so fierce?!
Pei Jingnian was practically fuming! What's more, he even had tea!
Just as the fox was about to explode with anger, something flashed through his mind in a flash, and the anger in his eyes instantly diminished, then almost disappeared.
He's a true genius!
Thinking about the plot he had arranged in the holographic experience, the sudden surge of joy in his heart successfully suppressed the anger that had been stirred up by the tea.
It let out a meaningless "howl," its voice low and soft.
At the same time, it rubbed its tail against Alina's shoulder, deliberately brushing against the cat in her arms.
The action was utterly provocative.
If you're going to pretend to be good, then just stay good.
The sprite in question: Can you call that fluffy provocation? It's clearly just being affectionate!
Alina reached out and touched the large tail in front of her, then turned to look at the fox who had instantly become docile, and asked with relief, "Big Red, are you apologizing?"
Upon hearing this, the fox remained silent, only continuing to nuzzle against the cat in Alina's arms, occasionally glancing at it (crossed out) to provoke it.
But Alina thought that as long as the furry creatures snuggled together, it meant they had made up, so she relaxed and continued to instruct them: "It's good that you apologized. Don't wrong the little cutie again next time. Also, don't fight with Big Tiger next time. Be friendly with him, okay?"
"Look at your poor tail, be good."
"Meow!" He didn't apologize at all!
Seeing the other person rubbing against Alina right under his nose and even using that bald, ugly tail to play the victim, Chu Yanbing was about to explode with anger!
Chu Yanbing, whose hair had exploded into a giant dandelion, completely ignored the sneeze she had unconsciously let out earlier because of her intense emotions.
"Sweetie, are you catching a cold?"
Alina touched the other person's head a few times with some concern, but the temperature was normal.
Her gaze then fell on the kitten's whiskers on both sides of its cheeks. Could it be that it got angry and pricked itself?
Looking at the puffed-up kitten, Alina couldn't help but laugh.
"Ahem, of course, it's also possible that the little cutie's owner is thinking about it." Alina, feeling a little guilty for her earlier imaginings, mentally refuted herself while being watched by the little cutie.
The only injured tiger, excluded from the group: "..."
So Alina likes this kind of style, but he's neither soft nor cute, whether he's in beast form or human form!
[Oh no! What do I do? jpg.]
[Panic image.]
Its icy blue cat-like eyes stared intently at Alina, who was both happy and guilty.
"Are you still angry? Okay, okay, don't be angry anymore."
It's so small, but it has quite a temper.
With a smile in her eyes, Alina hugged the little cutie and gave it a good rub. As soon as she let go, a fox tail snuggled against her neck, its silky, fluffy texture incredibly appealing.
Touching the big red tail on her shoulder, Alina couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "These furry creatures are getting better and better at being affectionate."
That's great, hehe.
After rubbing them a few more times, Alina reluctantly let go of the two furry creatures in her arms and beside her, thinking about this last holographic experience.
In the moment of his difficult escape, he was immediately surrounded by lions and tigers that were always ready, and a large snow wolf was behind him.
The tiger was so strong that Alina would have been knocked over by the slight grazing on her shoulder if it weren't for the wolf's tail that suddenly appeared on her waist.
"Be gentle."
Alina gently patted the tiger's fluffy head, her cool voice tinged with barely suppressed laughter, sounding somewhat coquettish.
"It itches~"
Suddenly, a ball of golden fur appeared in my palm. The coarse fur brushed against the smooth inside of my wrist, causing a very ticklish sensation.
With her free hand, Alina flicked the golden lion's large, rounded ears as if as punishment. She then loosened the wolf tail around her waist, turned to the composed snow wolf, and said:
"Thank you, Big White."
Standing on tiptoe, Alina laboriously reached out and touched the side of the snow wolf's face.
The snow-white ears twitched, and the wolf's voice remained as steady as ever: "Awoo." You're welcome.
The kitten, once again put down, was furious!
Even though he hasn't caught up with her yet, he still feels like he's being cheated on, and it's all Pei Jingnian and the others' fault!
When will we finally be able to train? Chu Yanbing felt like he was rusting away!
So what if your mental energy is surging? So what if you're in the late stages of a terminal illness? As long as you haven't lost yourself, you still need to train!
Seeing that the marshal was so angry that his hair stood on end, Mo Zhuxi, who had originally wanted to take one last chance to get close to him, thought about it and said: Forget it, maybe next time. It feels a bit dangerous.
A flustered Alina sighed with delight, 'What a sweet burden!'
Having successfully calmed the furry creature that was vying for attention, Alina stood in front of the holographic display screen, skillfully clicking on the only lit photo. Looking at the three familiar themes, she felt conflicted.
Will we choose daily military life again this time?
Her fair fingertips hovered above the four words "Daily Military Life" as her thoughts flowed.
His gaze, however, fell on "life after death".
The character “婚” looks familiar.
I racked my brains, but the meaning remained a complete blank.
Alina thought to herself, "I'll remember to check the dictionary next time." The list of words she needed to look up in her mind was already as long as her arm.
Ugh, there's no way to finish investigating!
With this thought lingering in her mind, her pink fingertips seemed to uncontrollably click on "*Life After".
