The next morning, Lan Yu woke up with a start at the first sound of the wakeup call and tried to sit up. Lu Rankong also woke up and said with a nasal voice, "We have a day off, let's continue sleeping."
Oh yes, Lan Yu had just completed the mission and returned to the barracks. He still had a few days of vacation. He didn’t have to get up to mine, nor did he have to lead the soldiers in training. He felt relieved, turned over and fell asleep again.
When I woke up again, I touched the terminal and checked the time. It was past ten o'clock. He threw back the quilt, stood up, rubbed his eyes and walked out of the bedroom. He saw that there was no one in the living room, but there were some slight noises coming from the balcony.
"Awake?" Lu Rankong walked in from the balcony wearing sportswear.
He still held the iron sheet and tools in his hands. He walked to Lan Yu, leaned over and kissed his face, and said, "Go wash up first. There is breakfast on the table that Kong Fei sent. Eat it while it's hot."
"What are you doing?" Lan Yu asked.
Lu Rankong said: "Didn't I promise you when we were on Quyu Star that I would make some treasure stands for your flowers and plants?"
"Then you better look good."
"Okay, it will definitely look good."
Lan Yu went to the bathroom to wash up, then blew down her mushroom-like hair. After tidying herself up, she went to the dining table to eat breakfast.
Lu Rankong put down what he was holding, washed his hands, walked over, and sat down opposite.
"Are you still going on a date today?" he asked.
Lan Yu was taking a bite of a steamed dumpling and said as she chewed, "I don't want to walk anymore, and I don't want to go on a date anymore."
"I won't walk. I'll choose a car carefully and check it carefully before leaving so that it won't break down halfway." Lu Rankong said.
"So how are you going to date?"
"The fourth step is to watch the sunrise with your lover." Lu Rankong said: "Of course, we can skip this step. It's almost noon now, so how can there be a sunrise? If we skip the fourth step, then -"
The terminal suddenly rang, interrupting him.
Lu Rankong looked at the number and looked at Lan Yu: "It's Liu Deng..."
Major General Liu Deng? Why are you looking for Lu Rankong at this time?
"Well, well, okay, no problem, OK..." Lu Rankong's expression was very serious and his voice was very solemn as he spoke at the terminal. Lan Yu stopped chewing and looked at him nervously.
After Lu Rankong finished speaking on the terminal, he pointed at the plate with his chin and said, "Eat quickly, it's getting cold."
"What did Liu Deng talk to you about?" Lan Yu asked.
Lu Rankong leaned back in his chair, folded his hands behind his head, looked at Lan Yu and said, "We are going on another mission."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lan Yu's terminal rang.
Lu Rankong mouthed to him, "Liu Deng..."
Lan Yu connected the terminal and Liu Deng's voice came out.
"Colonel K, satellite monitoring has discovered unidentified creatures on the planet Weiya, suspected to be interstellar beasts. I know you just completed your mission and originally only sent two mecha battalions, Chen Yuqin and Lin Zhu, but according to the data sent back, there are quite a lot of interstellar beasts, and I'm afraid two battalions can't handle it, so you and Colonel Lu have to go."
Lan Yu said nothing.
"Do you have any objection to this mission, Colonel K?" Liu Deng asked.
"No objection. I guarantee to complete the task." Lan Yu replied.
Liu Deng nodded and said, "Get ready. We'll set off tomorrow."
“Yes, sir…”
After hanging up the terminal, Lu Rankong looked at his expression and said, "If you don't want to go, don't go. It's just a few interstellar beasts. I'll go. Just rest assured. I will naturally explain to Liu Deng."
Lan Yu did not answer, but just called up the terminal in her hand and searched through it.
Lu Rankong waited for a while and asked, "What are you looking for?"
"What kind of planet is Weiya? There's no information about it. Is it a barren planet?" Lan Yu asked.
"Yes, it is a barren planet."
Lan Yu asked in confusion: "Why is the military so nervous about the appearance of an interstellar beast on a barren planet?"
Lu Rankong said: "Qi Chu Star, the outermost star of the Sasu Galaxy, is next to the Longte Galaxy, and the interstellar passage is on Qi Chu Star. You should know this, right?"
"Of course..." Lan Yu replied.
"Weiya is only 6 light years away from Qichu, and there is a jump station on it. If you want to go to Qichu, you must pass through Weiya. Half a year ago, after the interstellar passage on Qichu was secretly opened, the military closed the jump station on Weiya, and the entire planet was closed, cutting off Sasu's way to Qichu."
Lan Yu suddenly realized, "No wonder they are so nervous. They are afraid that there will be problems with the jump station on Weiya Star."
"Yes, even if only an interstellar beast appears, we can't take it lightly. We have to go and take a look."
Lan Yu pondered for a while and asked, "What's the situation on Wei Ya Star?"
"It is a barren planet covered with ice and snow all year round. The average temperature is around minus 20 degrees Celsius, and the absolute temperature can reach minus 80 degrees Celsius. Hurricanes often blow on the surface of the planet. I guess the weather will be good in the next two days. If it is windy now, the starship will not be able to land." Lu Rankong said.
"It's so cold..." Lan Yu murmured.
Lu Rankong said: "Yes, if you hold the handle of the ion gun in your hand, your fingers will freeze off, so you shouldn't go."
After saying that, he leaned over again, picked up Lan Yu's hand, gently pinched the smooth and slender fingers, and said with a click of the tongue: "Such a beautiful hand, it would be so painful if it got frostbite."
Lan Yu pulled her hand back and asked, "If I don't go, will you three battalions go?"
"Three battalions are enough. In fact, Brother Leopard can deal with those interstellar beasts with just one battalion." Lu Rankong said nonchalantly.
Lan Yu thought for a while, frowned and said, "No, I'm worried, I want to go with you."
"What are you worried about? It's freezing cold there, how can you stand it?" Lu Rankong also frowned, "Don't worry, I can easily complete this task."
Lan Yu stood up, looked down at him, and said, "The more you talk, the more worried I become."
"Why?" Lu Rankong asked in surprise.
"You don't take this seriously enough."
Seeing that Lu Rankong was about to explain, Lan Yu interrupted him and said, "I do want to retire and not go on missions, but before I retire, I will definitely do what I should do, and I will do my best to do it well."
After that, he leaned down again, put his hands on the dining table, looked directly into Lu Rankong's eyes, and said softly: "Besides, how can I let you go out alone to suffer the cold? This is a small task. How about we treat this task as a date?"
Lu Rankong looked into his beautiful eyes and smiled, "Okay..."
"Move to the left...move to the right...how can you shoot and fight if you can't even tell left from right?"
Lan Yu sat on the balcony, holding a ball of yarn, and directed Lu Rankong, who was sitting opposite her with the yarn stretched in both hands.
Lu Rankong turned his hands stiffly and said, "I can tell the difference in a fight, but this is harder than a fight. My hands always don't obey my commands."
Lan Yu was winding a ball of yarn and smiling at him. The sunlight poured down from above his head, dyeing both rows of his eyelashes brown, and his eyes sparkled with tiny lights.
When Lu Rankong saw Lan Yu like this, his heart itched again and he leaned forward to give her a kiss. Lan Yu pressed her finger against his forehead and said, "Focus, I need to hurry up."
After Lu Rankong sat down, he kept moving: "I have to weave two gun handle covers and put them on the handle of the ion gun to prevent my hands from getting frozen."
"Actually, that's not necessary. We're wearing gloves," said Lu Rankong.
"It's better to put it on than not, right? Besides, think about it, it's so cold, the gun handle might be frozen and stuck to the gloves, and you can't tear them apart." Lan Yu said as she skillfully wrapped the ball of thread.
Lu Rankong watched him move and asked doubtfully, "Can you still weave that?"
Lan Yu glanced at him and said nothing.
The thread was wound up quickly, and soon a large ball was made. Lan Yu pinched it with her hands and estimated, "One ball of thread weighs two taels, which is enough to weave two gun handle covers."
After saying that, she went to the bedside table, took out a small basket, and took out two knitting needles of appropriate thickness.
He continued to sit back on the balcony to bask in the sun, and under Lu Rankong's shocked gaze, he began to weave the gun handle cover.
Lu Rankong watched him skillfully pick up the needles, muttering to himself as he counted the stitches, his hands moving non-stop, the silver knitting needles drawing rays of light in the sunlight, and he was completely stunned.
"What are you doing? You look so stupid..." Lan Yu looked up at him, her eyes narrowed slightly in pleasure.
I haven’t touched knitting needles for a long time. Knitting is really comfortable and enjoyable.
Lu Rankong was even more shocked when he saw that he didn't even look at his hands, but his movements were not chaotic at all and the knitting needle could accurately poke into the eye of the wool every time.
"Have you never seen anyone knitting?" Lan Yu felt a little amused when she saw him like this.
Lu Rankong shook his head and said honestly: "I haven't seen it..."
Lan Yu asked: "Does your family not knit?"
"No weaving..."
His mother loved playing the piano and painting, but was not good at these things. The servants in the house had ready-made clothes, and even if they needed something, they had to buy it from outside. No one had ever knitted anything by hand.
"Xiaoyu, you are amazing." Lu Rankong praised sincerely.
Lan Yu also pursed her lips proudly: "Not bad..."
Lu Rankong laughed, and at the same time felt a trance.
It was a feeling of déjà vu, bringing a dusty memory to mind.
"Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu." Lu Rankong stood on a wooden frame, lying on the wall of a small courtyard, and shouted inside.
The yard was very dilapidated, with parts of the wall collapsed and bricks stuffed in haphazardly. The house was also very low, with only two rooms, but it was kept very tidy everywhere.
Although there was an old man sitting in the yard basking in the sun, his hearing was sometimes better and sometimes worse and he often couldn't hear anything. So Lu Rankong didn't expect him to come and open the door, and just shouted directly into the house.
"Xiao Fan..." Shu Yu pushed open the door and walked out. When he saw Lu Rankong on the wall, his whole face lit up.
"Open the door..." Lu Rankong said.
"Um……"
Shu Yu opened the door and let Lu Rankong in. As soon as Lu Rankong stepped into the courtyard, he took out two big apples from his arms and handed them to him, "Here..."
Shu Yu took the two apples, smelled them, and his pretty nose wrinkled slightly as he sniffed.
"It smells so good..." He looked at Lu Rankong, his eyes curved into lines as he smiled.
"My father sent this apple to me. This kind of apple is only found on Pure Star. It's delicious."
He took the apple into the house, and Lu Rankong walked towards the ginkgo tree next to him to say hello to Grandpa Shu Yu who was half lying under it.
"Grandpa, Grandpa." He called a few times, but the old man ignored him.
"He can't hear sometimes." Shu Yu brought out a plate of sliced apples and handed it to Lu Rankong.
Lu Rankong reached out to take it, but he grabbed his hand and asked, "Have you washed your hands?"
"My hands are clean." Lu Rankong rubbed his hands on his white T-shirt.
Shu Yu frowned and said, "No, go wash your hands, otherwise there will be a lot of bacteria and you will have a stomachache."
"Then I won't eat it." Lu Rankong said.
You also have to wash your hands, which is too troublesome.
Shu Yu picked up a piece and fed it to his mouth, saying, "Open your mouth..."
Lu Rankong took a bite of the apple and said vaguely while chewing: "Xiao Yu, you are so nice."
"What should I do?" Shu Yu raised his head and asked him.
Lu Rankong thought for a moment and said, "Anyway, it's good..."
Shu Yu laughed: "You are good too, it's good anyway."
The two of them looked at each other and smiled foolishly.
Shu Yu brought the plate to the old man again, picked up a piece and called out, "Grandpa, eat an apple."
When Lu Rankong saw that the old man could hear miraculously again this time, he opened his eyes instantly.
Shu Yu picked up a piece of apple and fed it to him. The old man nodded while chewing and said vaguely, "Sweet..."
"If you like it, eat two more pieces." Shu Yu said.
While the grandfather and grandson were eating apples, Lu Rankong rummaged around in his pockets.
"What are you looking for?" Shu Yu turned around and saw it, and asked.
Lu Rankong said nothing, just frowned and started searching his shorts pockets.
"Oh, here it is." He took out a black object from his trouser pocket with a sense of relief.
"I made you a unicorn," he said.
This unicorn is made of iron wire. Its four hooves are flying and it looks vivid. There is also a single horn on its head.
Shu Yu put down the plate and walked over, carefully taking the unicorn, looking at it with surprise, and said, "What a beautiful pony."
Lu Rankong scratched his head and corrected: "This is a unicorn..."
"Unicornmon..."
"No ponies, just unicorns."
"A pony beast without a horn." Shu Yu said stubbornly.
Lu Rankong said helplessly: "Well, this is Pony, Ponymon."
Shu Yu held the pony beast and looked at it over and over again, saying admiringly: "Xiao Fan, you are really amazing."
Lu Rankong put his hands in his shorts pockets, put his front feet on the ground, and said lightly: "It's okay..."
But the pride in his eyes and brows could not be suppressed.
Shu Yu's eyes slid across his shorts and asked in surprise, "Why are your pants torn?"
Lu Rankong looked down and saw a small hole in his trouser pocket, through which he could vaguely see a little of his finger.
"It's okay, it's broken," he said.
Shu Yu said: "It should be pierced by the horn of the pony beast. That won't do. The break needs to be repaired."
Lu Rankong wanted to say that he had plenty of pants, but when he saw Shu Yu's yellow T-shirt that was washed pale, he said, "I'll ask Joshua to mend it for me when I get home."
"Who is Joshua?"
"He's my family's servant." Lu Rankong said.
Shu Yu asked curiously, "Do you have any servants at home?"
Lu Rankong nodded.
"What do servants usually do?"
Lu Rankong thought for a moment and said, "It's probably cooking, cleaning the house, and doing laundry."
Shu Yu nodded as if he understood, "Then I am Grandpa's servant."
"Besides these, do servants do other work?" he asked again.
Lu Rankong racked his brains and thought: "I just need to be very nice and considerate to my master and want to make him happy."
Shu Yu suddenly realized: "Then you are also my servant."
Lu Rankong felt that there was something wrong with this, but seeing Shu Yu's happy face, he nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, I am also your servant."
"Servant, go take off your pants in the room first, and let me fix the hole for you." Shu Yu squatted down and moved closer to the small hole to take a look.
Lu Rankong was about to agree when he suddenly remembered that he had gotten out of bed naked this morning without any underwear on. He had just put on shorts with nothing underneath.
"Forget it, I won't fix it. That's it." He covered the hole with his fingers and said awkwardly.
Shu Yu thought he was too lazy to move, so he said, "Take it off. I'll mend it for you in a few minutes."
Lu Rankong insisted silently.
"He is not wearing any pants. If he takes them off, he will be naked." Shu Yu's grandfather suddenly spoke loudly and clearly.
Shu Yu heard it and asked in surprise: "Really? You're not wearing anything?"
Lu Rankong turned his head away without saying anything, his ears slightly red, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Hahaha..." Shu Yu's grandfather opened his toothless mouth and laughed happily.
Lu Rankong glanced at Shu Yu secretly and thought to himself, why is this old man so annoying?
Shu Yu came over and led him to one of the rooms, mumbling, "It's okay, just get under my quilt and I'll patch up the hole for you, otherwise it would be bad if someone saw your butt on the way home."
Lu Rankong thought to himself, the butt can’t be seen, it’s at the back, only the little Jiji might be seen, but he didn’t have the courage to say it out loud.
He knew Shu Yu was an omega, and he also knew that there were some things that an alpha couldn't tell an omega, which was not good.
The room was small and dark, with only a small window on the side. A curtain in the middle divided the small room into two halves, with a small bed on each side.
Shu Yu took Lu Rankong to the bed inside and said, "Just take off your clothes on my bed. Cover yourself with the quilt so that grandpa can't see you and won't laugh at you."
After saying that, he just stood there without moving, waiting.
Lu Rankong held up his pants and didn't move.
"Take it off..." Shu Yu urged.
Lu Rankong said: "You have to be unable to see it either."
Shu Yu said seriously: "It's okay, I won't tell anyone, and I won't laugh at you."
"That won't work either. Alpha can't let omega see his butt." Lu Rankong said.
"Is it not okay for us to be so close?" Shu Yu asked a little shocked.
“No…”
"You are my servant, right?"
"no……"
Shu Yu thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go find the sewing basket and you can take it off here by yourself."
After saying this, he walked out, considerately closing the curtain.
Lu Rankong started to take off his shorts, then quickly got into the wrinkle-free quilt and shouted, "I'm done, you can come in."
Swish!
Shu Yu pulled open the curtain and walked in carrying a small bamboo basket.
Lu Rankong handed him the pants a little embarrassedly and said, "Take a look..."
Shu Yu took the pants, walked to the bed and sat down, carefully examined the hole, and said, "This is easy to mend..."
Then he quickly threaded the needle and began to sew carefully.
Lu Rankong grasped the corner of the quilt and turned his head to look around the room. Strictly speaking, it is about looking at the corner behind the curtain.
The walls were dim, but there wasn't a speck of cobwebs or dust in the corners. Opposite the bed is a cabinet with mottled paint and a very old style. The cabinet door was made of transparent glass, and you could see a few small round jars inside, the kind that were left over when all the candies were eaten. There are also several bottles of medicine of different sizes, neatly arranged next to it.
He turned his head again and his eyes fell on the quilt in front of him.
The quilt was an ordinary pure blue color, and like Shu Yu's clothes, it also had a white tint, but it gave off a pleasant smell. He couldn't help but lower his head and sniff the quilt.
"What are you doing?" Shu Yu asked curiously.
Lu Rankong simply buried his face in the quilt and said in a muffled voice: "Your quilt smells so good..."
"Does it smell good? I don't think so." Shu Yu said.
"Really, it smells so good." Lu Rankong sniffed.
Shu Yu couldn't help but put down his half-mended pants and bamboo basket, kneeled on the bed, and buried his face in the quilt to smell it like Lu Rankong.
"I can't smell it..." he said.
"Yes, you can smell it, it's so obvious."
The two of them lay on the quilt and smelled it until Shu Yu glanced at Lu Rankong, his eyes suddenly widened, and he pointed at him and laughed.
"Xiao Fan, your butt is showing, hahaha."
Lu Rankong was smelling the quilt with an intoxicated look on his face. Hearing this, he hurriedly sat up, pulled the quilt up as hard as he could, and wrapped himself tightly.
Shu Yu laughed so hard that he fell backwards, saying, "I see you, little Jiji."
"Xiao Yu, what nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and sew the pants for that naked guy to wear." The old voice of Shu Yu's grandfather came from the yard.
Shu Yu covered his mouth with his hand, but his eyes were still curved into a line.
"Can your grandfather hear me?" Lu Rankong couldn't help but ask.
Shu Yu put down his hand and said, "I don't know..."
"have no idea?"
"Sometimes he can hear it, sometimes he can't." Shu Yu thought about it, then laughed again and said, "He can hear it when he wants to hear it, and he can't hear it when he doesn't want to hear it."
Shu Yu turned around and continued to sew his pants, and Lu Rankong stared at his hands intently.
It seemed as if his hands had some magical powers. He held the needle and thread and moved them up and down rapidly. The hole in the trousers became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared.
Lu Rankong said with infinite admiration, just like Shu Yu began to see the pony beast: "Xiao Yu, you are amazing."
Shu Yu also pursed his lips proudly: "Not bad..."
The child in his memory and the Lan Yu in front of him gradually overlapped, and Lu Rankong was surprised to find that the expressions of these two people were so similar.
He even felt that Shu Yu might look like Lan Yu when he grew up.
If nothing happened later.
