Chapter 39 Left Eye
◎Not count◎
"So what do you want to say?"
As expected, she was not angry. Luo Wusheng quickly suppressed his surprise and tried to probe further.
"There's nothing I want to say." Shi Hanqiao had no intention of being on high alert. It was broad daylight, the light was blazing, and outside, the sound of hot waves lapping against the shore was heard. She really had nothing to say.
However, the young man's dim eyes made her grip on his shoulder tighten unconsciously. Her breath was filled with a fresh, elegant sweetness. She couldn't tell whether she didn't want to see his loss, was affected by the pleasant aroma, or wanted to witness his analysis again.
Shi Hanqiao just followed his heart and said, "You can guess."
The phoenix eyes burst into a fiery light almost the moment the words fell from his mouth, dazzling Shi Hanqiao. He was attracted by it for a while until his voice came.
"Are you all right?"
"What?"
Shi Hanqiao suspected that she had heard it wrong. She was stunned for a long time and wanted to confirm it again.
Luo Wusheng repeated his question amid the faint scent of lily of the valley.
According to genetics, it's impossible for a child of a powerful Alpha like Shi Qi and a highly intelligent Omega like Bai Shuiyang to have both C-level mental strength and physical fitness. The more powerful an Alpha, the greater their personality flaws, though these can be corrected.
However, Shi Hanqiao's academic record showed a C grade, unsurprisingly. During their time together, he'd discovered she didn't possess the typical Alpha character flaws; she wasn't arrogant or conceited. But he could sense the arrogance and confidence hidden beneath her "trash" facade. She wasn't intentionally displaying it, nor was she deliberately trying to hide it.
All this information contradicted Shi Hanqiao's own presentation. He had a hunch that he'd only seen the tip of the iceberg. The bloodshot eyes, the fainting, the mountains of corpses and rivers of blood that inexplicably surfaced in his mind—everything had to have a fixed explanation.
He could get answers to all these explanations from the guesses she gave him. This was a great opportunity to understand Shi Hanqiao, but after all the information flashed through his mind and his thoughts raced, he realized that what he wanted to ask most was her health.
Physical and mental strength double C didn't matter, character flaws didn't matter, bloodshot eyes didn't matter. He only knew that her breathing was so weak when she fainted, and she had just been lying motionless on the mattress. The only thing he wanted to know now was whether her body would be affected.
Shi Hanqiao nodded, answering his question.
The hand that was pressing on the young man's shoulder unconsciously increased its strength, and she rarely suppressed the urge to touch his eyes.
Luo Wusheng's attention was completely drawn to the force on his shoulder, and he didn't notice that the scent of lily of the valley in the air had become thinner.
Because of the increasing force on his shoulders, his arms, which had been supporting Woman A's sides for a long time, became sore and numb, trembling slightly, and his palms were sweating from nervousness.
After receiving the expected answer, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked other confusing questions: "Your pupils are red. Is it related to your physical condition and mental strength?"
"have."
"What about pheromones?"
"Yes."
Shi Hanqiao raised an eyebrow, surprised at his sharpness.
However, she liked his sharpness and straightforward probing.
Are you the Demon Lord?
Luo Wusheng really wanted to ask directly, but that would be too direct and not probing enough.
He had a hunch that if he asked this question, Shi Hanqiao would definitely give him an answer, but there would be less inquiry and interest in her eyes when she looked at him.
He wanted to find evidence that she was the Demon Lord.
The question stopped at pheromones. Shi Hanqiao sniffed it with the tip of his nose and raised his upper body slightly.
"I smelled this scent yesterday too. It was so nice." It smelled like a rose, but not entirely like one. It had a light sweetness mixed in.
As the distance was slightly closer, the faint scent of lily of the valley wafted into Luo Wusheng's face. His face flushed slightly, and his tense arms outlined smooth lines. When he smelled the scent of Versilia intertwined with lily of the valley, his palm slipped with nervousness and he fell down.
He turned his head to avoid Shi Hanqiao who was facing him, and his nose suddenly hit the hard jawbone. A dull pain came over him, and natural tears flowed from his closed eyes.
The pain subsided, and his other senses received information from the outside world. Luo Wusheng's breathing almost stopped.
A warm touch came from his left eye, and all his senses were infinitely magnified. He could clearly feel the tears overflowing from his eyes wetting the other person's dry lips.
Luo Wusheng supported himself on the mattress and tried to get up, as if trying to cover his ears to steal the bell, for fear that she would hear the violent beating in his left chest.
However, the hand on his shoulder pressed forward to press the back of his neck, and his body, which had already lost its balance, fell down under the force. Without the pain to blind his nerves, time seemed to stretch infinitely, and he was enveloped by the scent of lily of the valley.
Luo Wusheng could feel the tip of her nose almost touching the left side of his neck. There was no actual contact, but with the senses infinitely magnified, the feeling of close proximity and warmth was more stimulating than direct contact.
The warm breath fell on the most fragile skin on the side of his neck, like a feather brushing against it. The feather left behind a trembling touch.
In the small tent, the two pheromones mixed together but did not seem strong and pungent. Instead, they blended very well, being both elegant and fragrant.
The two of them were pressed close together in an intimate posture, and Luo Wusheng felt that the slightly cold air had become hot.
Tick, tick, tick.
The water droplets hit the tent, dispelling the ambiguous atmosphere in the room.
"The smell comes from you."
Shi Hanqiao sniffed, found the source of the fragrance, and pushed the person away, without any difference from AO.
"It's... my pheromones."
Luo Wusheng was pushed to sit aside. Alpha had no other thoughts at all, only curiosity in his tone.
Because of this, he felt a little bitter.
"Is it the rose?"
Shi Hanqiao liked this smell and considered replacing the air freshener in his home with one of this scent.
Pheromones were a product of AO's unique constitution. She had some understanding of them, but only in a literal sense. In her mind, pheromones were like the body's own perfume. She pulled the young man over to trace the source of the scent, without any romantic thoughts.
"Versilia, a type of rose, Rosaceae, Rosaceae."
Luo Wusheng calmed down and answered seriously.
Shi Hanqiao became interested and asked, "What does he look like?"
The Demon Lord also needs to keep up with the times and see the flowers and plants in the interstellar space.
She wasn't particularly fond of flowers and plants, but Luo Wei had a medicinal garden that often attracted animals. The spiritual energy of plants and animals could aid her cultivation, and she often practiced in the open space within the garden. The older cultivators would carefully care for the flowers and plants, and later taught her how to cultivate different varieties.
However, Luo Wei's medicine garden had a tragic fate and was destroyed by her twice.
“I don’t have a saved picture.”
For the first time, Luo Wusheng reflected on whether he should study flower arrangement like other Omegas and develop the habit of taking photos and saving them.
"I have one planted in my yard. You can come and see it anytime when you come back to Capital Star during the holidays."
In fact, he could arrange for the robot butler at home to fold a bunch of flowers and send them to Xia Star, so that he would have a reason to find her after military training.
However, as the commander, Luo Wusheng had a longer-term vision. When it came to Shi Hanqiao's affairs, he had to be extra cautious and play it safe.
"Then... ahem, let's go back together during the holidays?"
Shi Hanqiao originally wanted to add a contact number, but then she remembered that she and 'W' had already exchanged contact information.
For fun, she didn't want to reveal her true identity for the time being. She wanted to see how long it would take him to find out and stand in front of her and say with certainty that she was the Demon Lord.
In certain aspects, the two people's thinking frequencies resonate, and their unconcealed straightforwardness is accompanied by obvious temptations.
If you take a step forward, I will take a step back. If I take a step forward, you will take a step back.
Between advance and retreat, many things that cannot be explained are growing invisibly.
"good."
Luo Wusheng agreed promptly. He coughed lightly to cover up the fact that he responded too quickly.
"Your account in the Star Realm is called Mo Zun, right? I also heard that a great player has emerged in the Mecha Master Forum."
"In the Interstellar League, Sphinx is nicknamed the fourth-best school of the millennium, but its mecha design and maintenance programs are ranked first in the entire galaxy. It has trained countless renowned mecha masters. The school's library has a large collection of mecha-related books, but they implement a tiered lending system."
Luo Wusheng changed the subject and said, "However, the reward for the first place Sphinx in this military training is free admission to the school library."
Shi Hanqiao raised his eyebrows: "I heard there is also a Royal Library."
"indeed."
"But this is an extra reward and hasn't been announced to the public yet. How did you know about it?"
Luo Wusheng has no evidence, but he can verify his guess through various means.
"one--"
Shi Hanqiao's eyes lit up with interest, "Just an ordinary friend."
Friends are just friends, why add the word "ordinary" to it?
Luo Wusheng felt choked up and felt very uncomfortable.
Speaking of friends, Shi Hanqiao has quite a lot of Omega friends around him.
The little princess Edith from the Covia family and Magda from the Black family, they all like to be around her.
"They are not."
Shi Hanqiao's voice rang in his ears. Luo Wusheng was stunned for a moment before he realized that he had just said what was in his heart.
'What kind of friends are Edith and Magda to you?'
"Why not?"
Luo Wusheng couldn't help but hold his breath, concentrating and waiting for her answer.
Shi Hanqiao pursed his lips and said nothing.
Just now she said they were just ordinary friends just to see Luo Wusheng's reaction, but now that she has calmed down she finds it a little funny.
Luo Wei once said that she hoped she would accept the kindness of other children and make friends with them. An older man once said that the bond of friendship is no less than that of family and love.
Shi Hanqiao remembered that she had replied, "Don't you have any friends too?" She still remembered Luo Wei's expression, which was nostalgic but not sad.
"I once had many friends. We shared the same ideals and traveled together. Later, for various reasons, we parted ways. Those were unforgettable years. I still miss the friends who once traveled with me."
Shi Hanqiao only felt that it was troublesome. She had never thought about having friends, nor had she ever made friends.
Because she doesn't need friends.
But if it’s Luo Wusheng, it seems okay.
Edith and Magda were friends of the original owner, not her, Shi Hanqiao's.
"So far, I'm just one friend."
Because of her words, my irritable mood improved.
Luo Wusheng couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and for the time being he had no time to worry about the loopholes in her words.
