After the kiss, Qi Yan didn't wait for Lu Fenghan to make any move. She immediately turned around, picked up an apple, and gestured left and right with a fruit knife, trying to imitate Lu Fenghan cutting the apple rabbit.
He couldn't help but cautiously glance at Lu Fenghan with the corner of his eyes. He saw that he took down the deep plate and put it away. His brows were relaxed and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth. For some reason, Qi Yan's heart beat faster and a few smile lines appeared in his eyes.
However, Qi Yan overestimated his ability to do things. When he cut the apple into pieces and prepared to use a knife to remove the seeds, his hand slipped and the tip of the knife cut through his fingers.
Qi Yan immediately took a breath of cold air.
Always paying attention to the movements of the people around him, Lu Fenghan held Qi Yan's wrist and pulled him closer. He was relieved when he found that only the skin was scratched and no blood was seen.
He pinched Qi Yan's injured finger and blew on it.
"Sure enough, he's still a little confused."
It seems that no matter how much time passes, Qi Yan's life skill level will still be infinitely close to zero.
Lu Fenghan looked at the semi-finished product that Qi Yan had made: "Want to eat something in the shape of a rabbit?"
Qi Yan confessed: “Yes.”
"Let me cut it from now on." Lu Fenghan raised his eyebrows and thought, "Are you imitating me? What if I make the apple pieces into the shape of a fish?"
"I'll make it into a fish shape, too." He didn't feel anything wrong when he was doing it, but he started to feel a little uncomfortable when he said it out loud. Qi Yan looked around and said, "I'm injured, General."
At this time, Vincent happened to come in from the door: "Who is injured? Is Qi Yan injured?" He looked him up and down, a little confused, "Where is he injured?"
Qi Yan raised his finger: "Here."
Vincent was about to say, "Can this be called an injury?", but he stopped talking after receiving Lu Fenghan's look. Seeing Lu Fenghan take out the healing gel he always had with him and carefully apply it on Qi Yan's "wound", he opened his eyes wide and said, "It's really a serious injury..."
I betrayed my soul!
Looking at Lu Fenghan's cautious expression, he took out a small piece of bandage and wrapped it around Qi Yan's finger with extremely skillful techniques, and finally tied a standard bow.
For a moment, Vincent couldn't help but have deep doubts about himself -
Did I just see it wrong
The wound on Qi Yan’s hand was actually five centimeters long, not the less than five millimeters he saw
But the case was solved. It turned out that the commander started carrying healing gel and bandages with him for the purpose of praying!
Obviously, Qi Yan really liked the bandage bow that Lu Fenghan wore. He moved his fingers again and again. There was no obvious expression on his face, but his eyes were bright.
The smile melted the sharpness of Lu Fenghan's lips, and he thought to himself—little spoiled brat.
He turned to Vincent. "What is it?"
Immediately regaining his professional qualities as an adjutant, Vincent reported: "Command, there are a few things. The first is that the White Tower has determined that new energy can support the energy consumption generated by mobile jumps, and the efficiency is four times that of existing energy. The White Tower also stated that it will continue to conduct in-depth research to improve energy efficiency."
While Lu Fenghan was seasoning the star mushroom sauce, he replied: "Thank you to the White Tower. How is the progress of the mining planet?"
"General Nie personally inquired about it. The first batch of ore processors have been built. The relevant operation is classified as 3s." Vincent remembered, "Commander, you and the chief are the discoverers of the ore and have the right to name this ore."
Lu Fenghan looked at Qi Yan.
Qi Yan understood the look in his eyes and said without further thought: "1029."
Vincent didn't understand, so Lu Fenghan explained, "On October 29th, the escape pod that Qi Yan and I took landed on that planet, and that's when we discovered the ore."
Vincent suddenly realized it—it was the anniversary date!
After noting it down, he continued, "Captain Dushan of the Jiangling ship found six supply points at the rebels' original base."
"Submit it to the Logistics Department for approval to activate the military transport ship."
"Yes." Vincent said about the third thing, "Eight scientific researchers arrived with the new recruits, five of whom were transferred by Odin to support the new energy research."
Lu Fenghan gave orders smoothly: "Let Lorenz arrange it."
Vincent thought to himself that he should ask Pojun to inform him of the news later, otherwise he would definitely face Lorenz's death stare.
Lu Fenghan saw Vincent stop: "That's all?"
Vincent: “No more.”
Lu Fenghan glanced at him sideways, his eyes seemed to be saying - then why are you still here
Vincent realized belatedly that he seemed to be disliked by his superior. Was he so annoying
During the time when there was no war, Lu Fenghan had breakfast leisurely with Qi Yan, took a stroll in the simulated driving system, and after crushing those who were practicing in the system with his absolute strength, he returned to the command room in a good mood.
If Lorenz hadn't come to him to borrow people, his good mood would have lasted longer.
After receiving the message from Lorenz, Qi Yan stood up and prepared to go out, but just as he reached the door, he grabbed Lu Fenghan's wrist and pressed him behind the metal door.
"Kiss before you go?"
Lu Fenghan lowered his voice, with a noticeable breathy sound at the end, and the hormonal aura around him was almost overflowing.
Qi Yan really liked this kind of intimacy, but as soon as he agreed, Lu Fenghan's hand reached behind his head and stroked the back of his neck, making him so itchy that he couldn't help but dodge to the side, but his movements were restrained and he couldn't dodge, and the next second, Lu Fenghan approached him again.
Their lips touched together, and unlike the previous kiss, this kiss seemed light and soft, as if there were deep emotions conveyed from it. Qi Yan inadvertently loosened his lips and teeth, allowing the other party to invade at will.
A few minutes later, Qi Yan said in a hoarse voice: "It's... getting late."
Lu Fenghan had to step back, but he still kissed Qi Yan's thin eyelids reluctantly, and his fingertips brushed across her lips that had turned red from his kisses.
Qi Yan closed his eyes and felt a slight tingling sensation on his lips as Lu Fenghan moved.
His hands were still gently grasping the other's clothes. He was somewhat addicted to this deep intimacy, leaning against the door weakly: "Did the general just put me on the desk and kiss me?"
Lu Fenghan helped him tidy up his messy clothes: "I remembered it wrong again. It happened yesterday."
"Well," Qi Yan said in a hoarse voice, "Then when I come back, General, you can kiss me like this again."
When the door of the command room slid open to both sides and then closed again, a feeling of warmth spread from inside to outside. Lu Fenghan raised his arms and rolled up his sleeves.
He lowered his eyes, but couldn't help laughing again.
Qi Yan left the command room. Except for the red on his lips, his expression had returned to his usual coldness. When he arrived at the technical department, Ye Pei met him at the door and saw him at a glance: "Are you injured?"
"Nothing, just a scratch on my hand." Qi Yan showed the bandage bow tied around his finger, "It looks nice, doesn't it?"
Ye Pei found it a little funny. She felt that Qi Yan, who asked this question, was a little different from usual. She nodded three times in a row: "It looks good. The bow is very standard!"
Qi Yan was very satisfied with this evaluation.
As they walked, Ye Pei told him the general situation: "Things are a bit... complicated."
Qi Yan thought something was wrong: "Is it the power system or something else?"
"No," Ye Pei waved his hand, "It's the central control system. If there is a problem with the central control system, it will run data repair by itself, but I don't know if the problem this time is a bit complicated. It has been running for almost an hour and has not been able to repair itself successfully. The boss is a little impatient. You know, lack of sleep."
Qi Yan nodded. Every time he saw Lorenz, he looked like he was dying from lack of sleep and was relying on coffee to survive.
"Then among the eight researchers who came with the new recruits today, one said he was very good at solving problems. The boss felt that this person was too complacent and needed to let him recognize his own level and back off when faced with difficulties, so he agreed to let him take a look at the specific situation." Ye Pei's expression was quite difficult to describe, and he skipped the specific process. "In the end, the self-repair program of the central control system was blocked, and the boss was very angry, so he had to come to you."
When saying this, Ye Pei didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his wording.
Perhaps it was because Qi Yan had demonstrated an extremely high level of proficiency in the power system and even in all aspects, which made her subconsciously feel that there would be no problem in asking Qi Yan to solve things that Lorenz could not solve, even if it was about the starship's central control system.
When the two arrived, there were already several people surrounding them. Qi Yan took a quick look and automatically matched the appearance with the person's information in his mind. The only person he didn't recognize should be the scientific researcher who came with the new recruits.
He had been in and out of the technical department several times and had already memorized everyone clearly.
However, his gaze only stayed on the other person for less than a second, and Qi Yan looked at Lorenz: "Is there a problem with the central control system?"
The coffee cup in Lorenz's hand was empty, and his face was the characteristic paleness of drifting in space for many years, which made the blue shadow under his eyes more obvious. When he said to Qi Yan, his tone and expression could be called gentle: "Well, I can't do it, you take a look."
In a nutshell, I had no intention of talking about the background or the specific problems.
Qi Yan didn't ask and stood directly in front of the optical computer next to Lorenz.
Instead, the unfamiliar researcher took a half step forward and said, "Hello, I'm Fantov, from the Kepler Region Odin Data Science Institute."
Qi Yan said politely: "Hello, I am Qi Yan."
Fantov was a middle-aged man with brown hair and light eyes. When he mentioned the name "Odin Data Science Academy", his purpose was obvious - he wanted to suppress Qi Yan.
Everyone around me understood the key point of this self-introduction.
After Nie Huaiting and the Secretary-General of the Alliance withdrew from Leto and temporarily stationed on Odin, Odin, which was originally just a not-so-dazzling planet in the Kepler region, suddenly became the temporary center of the Alliance. Everything in Odin also rose with it. For example, the Odin Academy of Data Science has now become a place that countless people flock to.
Ye Pei next to him secretly curled his lips.
Although Qi Yan is extremely smart, he is not very perceptive in the ways of the world. Ye Pei has always had a desire to protect him, knowing that he is smart beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Since leaving Turan Academy, she has grown a lot and knows that although they are all scientific researchers, there are differences - not everyone is dedicated to the pursuit of truth. Some people use their knowledge to seek status, fame and fortune. The Vantov in front of her is a typical example.
As soon as he boarded the command ship, he couldn't wait to show his uniqueness, and he didn't hesitate to boast. After making a mess of things, he saw Qi Yan and quickly revealed his identity, as if he was afraid that others didn't know where he came from.
Seeing that Qi Yan did not respond, Fantov continued, "I don't know if you have heard of the 'Odin Data Science Academy'. I'm in it—"
"I haven't heard of it." Qi Yan answered, and then politely said, "You are blocking the way, thank you."
Fantof paused.
Ye Pei originally wanted to mock Fantov, but after hearing what Qi Yan said, he immediately held back his laughter.
Perhaps this is Qi Yan’s special ability, to fight back invisibly
In front of the computer, Qi Yan entered the starship's central control system with familiarity. Although his hands were bandaged, it did not affect his typing speed, which was almost dazzling. Others could not see the data flow passing by on the display screen, and they would wonder if he was just typing randomly.
That's what Fantof thought.
A minute later, Qi Yan stopped and said, "It has been restored. The data previously input was inconsistent with the existing data logic, so it caused confusion in the logic chain. The problem is not serious. Without human intervention, the system will be able to repair itself in about forty minutes."
The data that caused the logical contradiction was naturally input by Fantov. Lorenz didn't say anything, but thanked Qiyan: "I'm glad to have you come here again."
Qi Yan shook his head: "It doesn't matter."
Coming out of the technical department, seeing that there was no one around, Ye Pei rolled his eyes without hesitation and said, "Why is that Fantov pretending to be so active? If he really wanted to contribute to the alliance, he would have come at the beginning of the war. For example, our boss, although he has a bad temper, he has been stationed on the front line for nearly ten years and doesn't care about false reputation at all. A cup of coffee from him is enough for me."
She lowered her voice a little: "Don't be so obvious. The researchers who came with the new recruits this time, except for the five who are supporting the energy department, the remaining three are here to gain fame and benefits. They came more than halfway through the battle. To be honest, the technical department really does not need these three people."
During the time he was in and out of the technical department, Qi Yan had discovered that the technical department had a very strict selection of personnel because of the large workload and the importance of the department. This resulted in many people in the technical department who were outstanding in a certain field, but they were all focused on their work and had a weak sense of presence.
After Ye Pei finished complaining, she quietly asked Qi Yan, "That..." After she managed to say two words, she couldn't say anything else. She stamped her feet in anxiety and finally asked, "Are you really together with the conductor?"
You know, even though she has lived for twenty years, she has never seen what love looks like.
Moreover, in her impression, Qi Yan seemed like someone who wanted to spend his whole life with Data, but she didn't expect that Qi Yan was the first one to fall in love!
Qi Yan nodded: "Yes, we are really together."
"When did you start?" Ye Pei was very curious, mainly because when it was Leto, the commander was Qi Yan's bodyguard, and in the blink of an eye, the bodyguard became the commander, which was very complicated.
Qi Yan didn’t know how to define “beginning”.
He thought for a while before giving an answer: "It started in Leto. But I'm not sure exactly when."
He could clearly remember every scene he had experienced, but—
Was it when the "fireworks" were set off at Fontaine No. 1? When he was curious about the flavors that Lu Fenghan liked? When the civilian starship was in the jump channel and Lu Fenghan was doing his best to protect him? Or when he was counting down to the New Year at the Sky Diamond Plaza and welcoming the first snow with the sound of the bell
He's not sure.
The pervasive emotions were like a transparent stream, slowly weaving into a large net, until he was deeply trapped in it. Then he gradually became aware and finally confirmed the direction of his emotions.
Back in the command room, Qi Yan mentioned what Ye Pei said during the chat, and Lu Fenghan said it more carefully: "The front line is the center of a huge vortex, which will continue to attract a myriad of things, including the focus of alliance policies, large financial expenditures, citizens' concerns and hopes, and so on.
Similarly, when the frontline achieves a complete victory, driven by profit, countless people will want to get a piece of the pie. For example, if the frontline wins a big victory, Fantov can use one or two months to exchange for a lifetime of glorious experience. "
Lu Fenghan was not unfamiliar with such operations.
Before the great defeat, there were many such people in the expeditionary army. They were often from powerful and prestigious families with complicated connections. They stayed in the expeditionary army for half a year and used their superior status in the military to gain a layer of fame. These people even formed a considerable force and would monitor the floating frontline troops for Leto, who was countless light years away.
After listening to Lu Fenghan's detailed explanation, Qi Yan sat on the sofa, called up the virtual screen of his personal terminal, and entered the data display library of the White Tower.
It not only contains a variety of minerals, but also various plants, animals, images of historical relics, etc., which can make people look at an orange lake in the Messier region one second, and observe a rare bird feather on the edge of the Kepler region the next second.
At some point, Lu Fenghan stood beside Qi Yan and looked at the cobalt blue mountain on the virtual screen with him: "Want to go?"
"Well, this mountain is made of a crystal stone called Linus. It is most beautiful when there is snow on the mountain." Qi Yan's eyes reflected blue, and he looked up and answered Lu Fenghan, "We can go together in the future."
At this moment, Lu Fenghan seemed to see the future in Qi Yan's eyes.
