As Lian Han regained his sense of touch and his other senses began to improve, he summoned a ball of light energy, changing its shape according to his own will, to give himself something to practice his power.
It was only because her mental energy was blocked that the things that appeared each time were strange and unusual. At first, she didn't know, but later, when her sense of touch was fully restored, the "nanny" wrote on her hand and asked her what she was condensing. When he couldn't figure it out, even Han—she ignored him for a day and was coaxed for three days before finally stopping caring about it.
At this moment, Lian Han was still practicing with the light ball. Usually, the "nanny" would have returned by now, but she wasn't here today. Perhaps something had happened.
As Lian Han thought about it, she suddenly felt a pang of pain in her heart, but at the same time, she was overjoyed. Xiao Ye!
But joy quickly turned into helplessness. The Butterfly Shadow Card, which originally had 11% energy, suddenly dropped to 1% due to Xiao Ye's awakening and absorption of energy. According to previous estimates, it would be reduced to its original state the day after tomorrow because of energy depletion.
This is really not good news.
Imagine if she became Lian Han here, would the general slice her up or slice her up again?
When Ning Jue returned home in the morning, she found Die sitting on the edge of the bed, still wearing yesterday's pajamas. Had she not slept all night?
As her condition improved, with the robot's help, she was able to take care of herself. Ning Jue frowned, stepped forward, and took her hand, asking, "Haven't you rested?"
"No. I just can't sleep." Lian Han smiled. "I was just wondering if you're a man or a woman, what you look like. You didn't seem impatient with me at all."
Ning Jue smiled, "You'll have to see for yourself then." She should still be able to see the little girl's hair standing on end.
"Why are you being so mysterious?" Lian Han pouted, unable to get the question out.
"You won't be disappointed."
"Whatever you want. When are you coming now?"
Ning Jue glanced at the AI, "7:23."
"It's already the next morning. I was wondering why the night was so long. You must be tired after working all night. Go take a shower. I'm thinking of going to sleep now anyway."
So she waited for him all night? Ning Jue felt a warmth in his heart and patted her head. "You go first."
“Okay.” Lian Han stood up and walked towards the bathroom with practiced ease.
When Ning Jue finished washing up, he saw the little girl sitting on the edge of the bed, swinging her little legs, with the hair dryer already plugged in, just waiting for him to dry her hair.
Ning Jue shook his head. He had been drying her hair while she was losing her senses, and she hadn't even realized it. Later, when her sense of touch returned a little, she started to feel uncomfortable, and now—
Ning Jue took the hairdryer and instinctively rested her head on his lap. He was in charge of drying her hair, and she was in charge of sleeping.
They really weren't being polite at all.
After he dried his hair, she was already fast asleep. Ning Jue put her on the bed, but heard her muttering something.
Ning Jue leaned closer to listen, "...Rui, don't go..."
Who is Rui? He takes such good care of her, yet she's still thinking about someone else?
Ning Jue frowned, but then saw Lian Han suddenly turn over, her lips lightly brushing against his cheek. The general immediately sat up, looking at the sleeping man, his eyes darkening.
These past few days, I've had similar flutters of the heart while spending time with her. Once or twice, I could explain it away with her beauty, but how many times has this happened already?
Seeing the girl's slightly furrowed brows, and thinking that she was heartbroken over someone else, Ning Jue felt even worse. In the end, he smiled helplessly; he was indeed moved.
Ning Jue ran his index finger along the girl's furrowed brow, then lay down beside her, closing his eyes, calm and composed. He was treating her like a daughter, so why did he suddenly want her to be his girlfriend?
Since she regained her sense of touch, General Ning has known that she has two sleeping habits: she likes to kick off the covers, but she craves warmth.
So, as expected, she came closer again after a short while. But this time, Ning Jue didn't push her away. Perhaps out of helplessness, she looked at her unguarded sleeping face with a firm gaze.
He was stationed in the northern border, and could die on the battlefield any day, so he had never planned for a partner. But if he really fell in love, there was no reason for him to give up, even if she was from a different race.
His gaze lingered on her lips for a long time, then he gently kissed them before quickly pulling away. She knew nothing yet; he couldn't scare her away…
Having clarified his thoughts, General Ning felt a greater sense of familiarity with the Zerg that day. As for the strange look his adjutant gave him, the general pretended not to see it—only Zhan Qi knew of the butterfly's existence, and he was currently just a card.
However, his good mood didn't last long. When he got home that evening, he found that the person was gone.
The room is so small, there's definitely no room for someone to hide. But why did she leave?
Had she discovered his feelings? The thought had barely crossed his mind when Ning Jue dismissed it. He hadn't done anything yet; she couldn't possibly have noticed. It was that kiss this morning—Die's senses were still recovering, and she couldn't use her mental energy. If she fell asleep, she was truly asleep; she wouldn't notice at all.
Ning Jue's expression darkened slightly, and his gaze suddenly fell on the table, where there was a box with a note on it.
Ning Jue picked up the note:
I'm leaving.
Although I'm having a good time being a parasite, I'm not leaving now. I need to recover my mental strength; there are other things to do afterwards. If your general blames you, give him the letter and tell him that if he dares to punish you, I'll send a big gift to the Northern Border another day. I can't beat Cangming, but I can still take down your general, who's at the god level.
It's a pity I don't know your name yet. But I guess you might be some pretty and thoughtful young lady—
With a "rip," General Ning lost control of his strength and tore the paper to shreds.
"Miss?" Ning Jue was both annoyed and amused. After calming down, she continued reading:
