I Come from Afar Within the Zerg

Chapter 72: Ready to make a move

Views:

Han Yan said nothing when he heard this, but frowned slightly. He felt that he was not a three-year-old child and probably did not need Gain to take him to work. But after a long silence, for some reason, he did not refuse.

"… "

Seeing this, Gain took his consent and quietly lifted the quilt, got out of bed, took a set of clean clothes to the bathroom to change, and limped out after a while. His steps were slightly staggering, which was obviously the result of being tormented too hard by the male insect last night.

Han Yan was adjusting his tie in front of the mirror. The pure black satin tie made him look a little more cold and ascetic than usual. He picked up the gold-rimmed glasses on the table and put them on. His blurry vision suddenly became clear. Perhaps he noticed something, but he tilted his head to look at Gain.

Gain seemed to not want Han Yan to find out that he was abnormal, so he slowly stopped when the male insect's gaze swept over him. As long as he didn't take a step, no insect would be able to find his disability in most cases. "Do you want to have breakfast at home? I'll go downstairs and make it now."

Han Yan: "No, the company has it."

After he finished speaking, he picked up his coat and put it on, then turned and walked out of the room. Seeing this, Gain followed him and closed the door behind him.

Han Yan walked very slowly and looked a little absent-minded, as if he was thinking about something else. It was not until he was going downstairs that he finally came to his senses and paused unconsciously.

Jia Yin was confused: "Hero Lord?"

Han Yan said nothing, but stretched out a hand to Jia Yin. On his ring finger was a silver wedding ring, which made his fingertips look clean and slender. His gentle brows were slightly wrinkled, and he didn't know whether he was uneasy about his repeated exceptions or dissatisfied with Jia Yin's slow pace. He said lightly: "You walk too slowly."

Gain looked down at the terminal on his wrist: "Not long, about ten minutes."

Very slight.

Every move Han Yan makes is very expensive, and it's all about spending money. Johnny feels so distressed when he sees him distributing red envelopes in the background of the software every day that his eyelids twitch.

This is his male insect.

Han Yan worked overtime for a few hours today. Seeing that it was getting dark outside and it was getting late, he simply packed up and left the company. He had been sitting in the office for a long time and it was time to go to the field to investigate the software promotion. Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the company building, he saw a familiar figure standing in front of the aircraft waiting for him.

Why don't you go to the company to find him...

Jia Yin paused when he heard this, but he did not feel disappointed. Instead, he held Han Yan's hand obediently, and walked downstairs step by step with the help of the other party, and whispered: "Sorry, I delayed your work time."

Although Han Yan was good at reading people's minds, he could not figure out where such complex emotions came from.

Gain's red eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of joy and morbid emotion flashed across his eyes quickly, but no one noticed.

Even if you wait down there for four or five hours and don't say anything, how would I know

Many words came to Han Yan's mind one by one. The businessman's complicated thoughts were revealed at this moment. However, when the words came to his lips, he only uttered two simple words: "... Let's go."

"Hero Lord."

"We're losing so much money! If you keep doing this, the company will go bankrupt before it even opens! Ashya, we're doing business at a complete loss!"

Han Yan saw the right opportunity and took advantage of this opportunity to directly launch the software that their company team had developed a long time ago. In addition to advertising on the Star Network program, those popular anchors also personally came out to test it. Prince Bape is a business tycoon. With his secret funding and operation, this software is spreading rapidly among the masses quietly.

Han Yan: "No hurry, there are still three hours."

Jia Yin was stunned for a moment when he heard this: "Aren't you going home to eat?"

Han Yan's deep voice seemed somewhat distant in the night, like a pine tree on the top of a mountain covered with a layer of fallen snow, which then rustled off, cold and gentle.

He remembered that he did not tell Gain his off-get off work time today.

"very happy?"

his…

The temperature difference between day and night on the main star is huge. Han Yan raised his hand and touched Gain's cold cheek, and knew that he must be lying. Han Yan's working hours were never fixed, so it was not easy to pick him up on time. The only way was to come early and wait downstairs in advance.

Han Yan ignored his resentment and said only one sentence: "Keep following up."

Gain seemed a little unsure and asked in a low voice: "Master, are there only two of us?"

Jia Yin turned on the autopilot mode and was about to locate the destination at the residence, but Han Yan beside him suddenly said, "Let's go to the nearby mall and find a place to eat."

Han Yan said calmly: "Don't worry about them."

After Han Yan finished speaking, he opened the cabin door and sat directly in. Seeing this, Jia Yin came back to his senses and followed him in and sat next to him. When the cabin door was closed, it blocked out the severe cold outside.

Han Yan was never soft-hearted when it came to spending money. Compared to the short-term losses at hand, he valued the future monetization of these customer groups more: "You don't have to worry about these. I asked you to be responsible for employee recruitment. Have you caught up with the number of delivery staff?"

As soon as he said this, he seemed to have inadvertently revealed his intention to get up early, and he immediately kept silent. And Jia Yin also knew what to do and did not ask any more questions. He lowered his eyes slightly and held Han Yan's fingertips tightly.

Han Yan tilted his head to look at him upon hearing that, only to see a hint of cautious expectation and joy hidden deep in Gain's eyes. His usually gloomy eyes also brightened a little. He couldn't explain why, but a strange feeling arose in his heart.

Invite merchants to settle in.

Download the software and receive the red envelope.

Jia Yin could always guess what Han Yan was thinking accurately: "I got off work early today, and I happened to pass by your workplace, so I waited for you."

Recruiting a large number of delivery personnel.

Gain hesitated and said, "Do we need to call Xiongfu and Johnny?"

Why didn't you send a message in advance to ask...

It's fleeting like a dragonfly touching the water.

Jia Yin saw Han Yan coming out of the company building and subconsciously took two steps forward. He was wearing a neat white military uniform, black knee-high military boots that made his legs look long and slender, and he had a cool temperament. Standing on the side of the road, he attracted a lot of attention.

Han Yan hummed.

Han Yan saw Jia Yin and paused: "When did you come?"

Except for the few days when he just joined the military, Jia Yin would pick up Han Yan to work whenever he had free time. He would always wait downstairs at the exact time when the male insects got off work, and no matter whether Han Yan got off work at 6 o'clock or 12 o'clock in the evening, he was never late.

After a period of time, Han Yan's work was officially on track, and Gain also transferred to the military as a civilian. During this period, the army sent by the empire to the dense forest to clear the polluted source stone finally sent news that they had successfully sealed the source stone. For a time, the entire main star was celebrating this great event.

Johnny has been helping out at the company. Upon hearing this, he opened the terminal software to check the backend data and took a look: "The quantity is almost enough. There is basically no problem in ensuring delivery within the city. As long as you stop wasting money, we will be able to make a profit soon."

Han Yan frowned slightly, although it was not obvious: "How long have you been waiting?"

Gain was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Han Yan's fingertips tapped his knees unconsciously, and he didn't know what emotions were mixed in. After a moment, he finally said in a low voice: "Well, it's just the two of us."

Just the two of them.

Unlike Han Yan's ambition, Gain's wishes were always so simple and small, and could be easily satisfied. Hearing this, he moved slowly to sit on Han Yan's left leg. Seeing that the male insect did not push him away, he kissed him with his cold lips. His red tongue tip was soft and wet, and he gently probed in, then quickly retracted.

Han Yan saw through his seduction and naturally would not give him a chance to escape. His slender fingertips slowly clasped the back of Gain's head, and he pressed the female insect against the seat and kissed her back deeply. Although no pheromones were released, it still caused a shudder.

Gain felt cold all over. Han Yan lifted the hem of his military uniform and slowly stroked Gain's cold abdomen, which was covered with a thin layer of muscle and felt very good.

Jia Yin shrank back unconsciously, because Han Yan always liked to press his abdomen afterwards, as if he liked to see his face flushed and trembling with shame. Although it was empty now and nothing could be squeezed out, he still dodged for a moment out of reflex.

Han Yan noticed Gain's actions, and his gray-blue eyes darkened for a moment: "Come here."

He didn't like it when females avoided him.

Jiayin was sensitive to Han Yan's emotional changes, so he leaned back again. Han Yan put his arm around him, but this time he didn't do anything. He gently rubbed the top of his head with his fingertips and occasionally tilted his head to kiss the red mole under Jiayin's eye.

Han Yan's eyes behind the glasses were filled with confusion. After a moment, he finally asked without emotion, "Why don't you come to the company to find me?"

Every time, Jia Yin would just send Han Yan downstairs and leave, and never went upstairs once. Han Yan shouldn't have cared about these unimportant things, but at this moment he suddenly became concerned.

That's not like him.

Han Yan narrowed his eyes, somewhat disliking this feeling of being out of control.

Hearing this, Jia Yin unconsciously touched his right leg, then quietly withdrew his hand and smiled gently at Han Yan: "It's okay, I'm used to waiting downstairs."

It was never a good idea to let the company employees see that the boss married a disabled woman. Most of the time, Gain would rather stand downstairs and wait and had never set foot in Han Yan's company.

Han Yan seemed to see through Jia Yin's thoughts. He took off his glasses and wiped the fog off the lenses. He said calmly, "The company is not very busy recently. There is a waiting room upstairs. Next time, go sit inside and wait."

His attitude was more frank than Gain had imagined, and he did not intend to hide anything.

Gain suddenly asked: "Don't you think it's shameful to marry a disabled person?" Han Yan paused while wiping his glasses and subconsciously looked at Gain, only to see the female insect staring at him quietly. Due to the dim light in the cabin, it was difficult to discern the emotions on his face.

"… "

Han Yan slowly put on his glasses, his vision cleared up, but Jia Yin still looked at him calmly and asked again in a low voice: "Don't you think it's shameful to marry a disabled person?"

Han Yan would never tell Jia Yin that he himself was once a cripple.

Not only are his legs disabled, but his heart is also disabled.

But that still didn't stop him from answering Gain's question.

"do not think so."

Han Yan has always believed that face is one's own thing, and no one else can help you lose it, nor can they help you earn it back.

As they were talking, the aircraft had already arrived at the mall and slowly landed on the side of the road. Han Yan opened the hatch, took Gain, who was still in a daze, and got off the aircraft together, walking towards the restaurant inside.

Gain limped along following Han Yan, still lost in the three words he had just answered, until a male insect grabbed his arm around the waist and brought him into an elegantly decorated restaurant, when he was suddenly awakened.

When the waiter at the door saw a customer coming in, he immediately stepped forward and bowed to greet them, saying with a smile, "Welcome, are you two?"

Han Yan hummed, and took Jia Yin to a seat near the window at the door. "What are the signature dishes in your restaurant?"

The waiter could tell at a glance that they were a couple, and habitually handed the menu to Han Yan, the male insect. However, Han Yan pushed the menu to Gain on the opposite side with his fingertips: "You order."

Upon hearing this, Jia Yin glanced at Han Yan, but saw that the man was resting with his eyes closed, so he had to take the menu and look through it carefully. The waiter beside him recommended earnestly: "Sir, our restaurant has recently launched a series of celebrations to commemorate the successful removal of the pollution source stone. As long as you download the Xingbida software, you can get a limited edition blind box gift for free, and you can also enjoy a 10% discount after dining. Are you interested in participating?"

Hearing this, Jia Yin paused for a moment as he turned the page: "Xing Bi Da?"

Gain's question successfully opened the waiter's mouth. He smiled and opened the terminal to introduce: "This is the most popular food delivery software on the main planet. As long as you sit at home, you can browse all the nearby shops online. Whether it is medicine, daily necessities, or food and drinks, it will be delivered soon after placing an order. If you download it now, you can also receive a limited red envelope. Sir, don't miss it~"

It was not just Gain's table that was like this, the situation was similar at several other tables. The difference was that before Gain had decided whether to participate, other customers had already been unable to resist the temptation of "limited edition blind box gifts" and "limited red envelopes" and downloaded them one after another.

Han Yan discovered as early as the first day he came here that the Zerg always had a mysterious obsession with the word "limited edition". Whether it was Johnny who was obsessed with collecting limited edition game cards, or Aedmon who was keen on collecting limited edition handbags, they all indirectly represented the consumption psychology of most people in this world.

This restaurant is owned by Prince Pape. The other party only needs to take a little from the high profits and give a 10% discount to attract customers to download the software. The latter may make money, but the former will definitely not lose money.

Most of the restaurants that have joined the food delivery software are now doing much better than before. Some stores with booming business have even increased their profits several times. More than one or two jealous businesses nearby have applied to join, including the Durant family and the president of the trade association's family, who have invested all their fortunes in the catering industry.

However, Han Yan just blocked their application and did not approve it. Now the two families are getting extremely anxious.

While Han Yan closed his eyes in deep thought, Jia Yin had already downloaded the software and received a limited edition blind box gift from the waiter: "I wish you two a pleasant meal~"

Han Yan opened his eyes and saw a beautiful gift box on the corner of the table. He crossed his legs and adjusted his sitting position, and asked Jia Yin: "Why don't you open it and take a look?"

Upon hearing this, Jia Yin gently opened the box, and saw a translucent green crystal doll ornament inside. The design was very fresh and natural: "Very beautiful, Lord."

Han Yan said: "There are eight styles in total."

Gain obviously had never played with blind boxes before: "Eight? How do I get the other seven?"

Han Yan's eyes behind the lenses studied him, and at the same time, he took some time to answer his question: "Place an order for takeout, and it will be delivered randomly."

The material of this kind of doll is actually very cheap, and the main cost is the design. However, since the design was drawn by Han Yan, there is no question of whether it is expensive or not. Now many bugs on the main star are even willing to pay a high price to get this set of blind boxes.

Jia Yin had already guessed that this software was developed by Han Yan. He stroked the doll in his hand, reluctant to let it go, and asked, "Master Xiong, can I order takeout when I get home?"

Han Yan said calmly: "Waste of money."

All right.

Gain had no choice but to give up and put the beautiful doll next to himself. Not long after, the waiter brought the dish. It was delicious and much better than the cooking of the two male insects at home.

Han Yan was using a knife and fork to cut an unknown roast meat on the plate when he suddenly heard Gain remind him, "My Lord, my mother and the others will be back from the battlefield tomorrow."

Han Yan paused for a second after hearing this, and then realized that "female father" refers to the female lord and female servant married by Ademon, but he didn't react much: "Are you sure it's tomorrow?"

Gain nodded: "The Third Army has already withdrawn from the battlefield and will arrive at the main planet tomorrow to report. My mother and the others are all serving in the Third Army, so it will be tomorrow if nothing unexpected happens."

Han Yan: “Got it.”

After he finished speaking, he continued to cut the food on the plate. He looked neither surprised nor sad, like an emotionless robot.

Jia Yin originally thought that Han Yan would be very happy to hear the news, but he did not expect his reaction to be so indifferent. However, considering that he usually treated Johnny with a similar attitude, he was not surprised.

Today is the Flower Festival of Saliland. The restaurant sells bunches of artificial flowers. When Han Yan was about to finish his meal, a clerk came up with a bunch of bright red roses and said, "Sir, today is the Flower Festival of the main planet. Buy a bunch of flowers for your partner."

Before Jia Yin could do anything, Han Yan had already refused: "Thank you, but no thanks."

Jia Yin originally wanted to buy a bouquet of flowers for Han Yan, but seeing that the man didn't seem interested, he had to give up the idea, and the clerk had to retreat awkwardly with the flowers in his arms.

Han Yan had almost finished eating and was about to pay the bill when he heard Jia Yin ask, "Master Xiong, I want to go to the bathroom, is that okay?"

Han Yan: "Go ahead."

Only then did Gain pull out the chair, stand up, and limp away.

Han Yan sat in his seat, glancing at Gain's departing back, wondering what he was thinking. Until this moment, his gray-blue eyes behind the lenses finally revealed some obscure emotions.

He refused the female insect's request to order takeout, and also refused the flowers that the clerk had just promoted. Gain did not react from beginning to end, although Han Yan could see that he felt lost and regretful in his heart.

But Gain always adhered to the word "obedient" from beginning to end, and he did not get angry even when he was rejected. If Han Yan said "no", he would never ask again.

Han Yan always likes obedient insects.

This time, unexpectedly, I hoped that Gain would have some other reaction.

Human nature is inherently base, and he is more or less guilty of it.

Another clerk came forward with a bouquet of flowers to sell, and happened to walk to Han Yan's table. Seeing this, his companion was about to remind him that the gentleman did not buy flowers, but he saw Han Yan, who had been indifferent just now, directly took out his wallet, paid for the meal, and bought a bouquet of flowers by the way.

A smart businessman will not buy something that will lose money, but because he was already shaken the first time, when the opportunity comes the second time, he will choose to buy it directly.

Han Yan looked at the beautifully wrapped bouquet of flowers for a moment, and finally placed it gently on the corner of the table. Perhaps because of the female insect's inconvenient legs and feet, about fifteen minutes later, Gain finally came back.

Jia Yin was obviously walking in a hurry, and his breath was a little breathless: "Master, I'm sorry, I'm back late..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly noticed a bouquet of roses on the corner of the table. He unconsciously stopped talking and subconsciously looked at Han Yan.

Han Yan said nothing, but pulled out a chair, stood up and walked out the door, stuffing the bouquet of flowers into Gain's arms: "Let's go home."

Jia Yin limped after Han Yan holding the bouquet of roses. After they walked out of the restaurant, the cold wind blew in their faces, causing the corners of their clothes to flutter. "My Lord, is this for me?"

Han Yan turned around and looked at Gain. His blue hair was a little messy due to the wind. His gentle and graceful profile looked less indifferent in the dark night. His voice sounded a little ambiguous: "Don't like it?"

Of course Gain liked it. He looked down at the bouquet in his arms and found a small white card in the gap between the petals. He picked it up and saw that it was an advertising card for a love hotel.

Gain looked around and found that the hotel was on the second floor of the restaurant where they had just eaten. It might be a promotional event jointly organized by the two stores. After all, there are always many couples coming out to play together during the Flower Festival.

Jia Yin hesitated for a moment, and finally handed the card to Han Yan: "Master Xiong, there is an advertising card for a love hotel inside."

Han Yan glanced at it but didn't take it. He raised his eyebrows slightly: "You want to go?"

Gain paused, but answered the question irrelevantly: "Lord Xiong, I got a promotion today."

Hearing this, Han Yan took two steps towards him and asked with interest, "So?"

Gain pursed his lips and looked at him. His thick eyelashes trembled. His red eyes were as gorgeous as gems, like a child asking for candy: "Just consider it a reward for me, okay?"

Han Yan didn't say anything, but he took the card with his fingertips and looked at it. He probably didn't understand why a legal couple didn't do it at home, but had to go out to such an improper place to play. But seeing that Jia Yin rarely spoke, he was silent for a moment and agreed: "... Let's go."

Gain looked at Han Yan walking in front of him and unconsciously touched his pocket. He had just secretly run to the mall to choose a gift for the male insect, but he was not sure whether the other party would like it. After hesitating for a while, he did not give it to the gift. After all, Han Yan's preferences have always been a little unpredictable.

Or, can you send it to me later when we’re in bed
