Luo Ran opened her eyes and saw the wooden ceiling.
Before I could regain my senses, I heard Xia Zhi's voice, "Ran Ran, you woke up...! You fainted in the military camp, what happened to you? Didn't I tell you to take good care of yourself? Yes, you are in good health, Spiritual power is still SSS, but no matter what, you are an Omega, an Omega in estrus, are you crazy to do such a high-intensity work??”
"You have to know that you are in a vulnerable estrus period, and you are temporarily marked, but your Alpha has not given you enough intimacy and pheromone, and you are still refining UNK recently. You are injured, how dare you work so hard?"
"You fainted from overwork! I've got you covered!"
Luo Ran had just woken up, and her mind was still a little dazed when she was shocked by Xia Zhi's crazy output.
"Ran Ran, are you listening to me!"
"what… "
That's right... He really felt powerless these days, and it seemed that he fainted because he had finally reached the critical point.
Luo Ran propped up the bed and looked around to find that she was in the guest room of Xiazhi's house.
"Ran Ran, don't be like this anymore, please take a leave." Xia Zhi said helplessly: "My dear, take a leave? Wait until the estrus period is over before going to work."
This workaholic is really...
Xia Solstice has to wonder if Luo Ran has a crush on Lucas.
"Okay." Luo Ran rubbed his temples and said, "I will consider it."
"I'm not telling you, your situation...you may be in heat in front of the admiral at any time." Xia Zhi warned: "After all, this time is different from usual. If you really can't control it, then I don't know what will happen. ."
Lorraine paused.
Luo Ran thought for a moment and said, "I will ask for leave."
There are still three days in the estrus period, so he should rest for three days.
"That's right." Xia Zhi was very satisfied, like a mother whose child was finally obedient.
Luo Ran flexed her limbs, got up and said, "By the way, who sent me here, is it Adjutant Lu?"
"No..." Xia Zhi said with a strange expression, "It's the general, he brought you in. But the military is still waiting for him, so I told him that you were just overworked and he went back first."
"Ah?" Luo Ran frowned immediately, "Why did he come here while he was still practicing."
Seeing that Luo Ran was still thinking about business at the moment, Xia Zhi paused and asked with a frown, "Ran Ran, I want to ask you..."
"Um?"
"What do you think of Admiral?"
"How about what?"
"Just, what do you think of others?" Xia Zhi said with a smile: "I'm not curious."
"Didn't you see him when you were a field doctor? He..." Luo Ran said while flexing his muscles: "He is a very powerful Alpha. His mental strength and combat ability are the trump cards of the empire, and he is also very honest."
Summer Solstice: "… "
Xia Zhi opened his mouth, originally intended to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
"What's wrong?"
"No, that... ah yes!" Xia Zhi clapped his hands and said, "Admiral will let Adjutant Lu guard outside, and let me know if anything happens. People are still sitting outside in the living room, you can go and talk to him."
"...You didn't say it sooner."
Luo Ran straightened her hair, straightened her collar, and walked downstairs quickly.
"Secretary Luo...!" Seeing Luo Ran, Lu Cheng subconsciously got up and saluted again.
"Adjutant Lu, I'm sorry to trouble you." Luo Ran also bowed in return.
"No trouble, no trouble." Lu Cheng took a serious look at Luo Ran, then stood up and said, "Secretary Luo, may I report your situation to the admiral?"
"… Can."
"Yes!"
Lu Cheng immediately bowed his head and reported to Lucas.
"Sir Lu."
"arrive!"
Luo Ran said, "Can you do me a favor and ask for leave for the admiral?"
"what… ?"
"Let's just say that I'm overworked and sick. I plan to rest for three days, but I will handle all the urgent matters of the company before the vacation."
"Yes..." Lu Chengxin said, why didn't Secretary Luo tell the admiral in person
After thinking about it, Lu Cheng still sent it to Lucas verbatim.
Lucas only responded with an "um".
As a result, the first long vacation of the chief secretary of the empire in several years finally started.
…
To be precise, it is half open.
Luo Ran couldn't just leave all of a sudden and leave all the work behind. He had to go back to the company to do the final sorting and handover, and take notes for Rong Duo and others by the way.
Luo Ran rested for a while at Xiazhi's house before leaving for the company.
When Luo Ran arrived, it was already late at night, and the employees had already left work. The entire high-rise building was pitch black, with only the soldiers and guards on duty.
Luo Ran came to the highest building and began to organize documents at his desk.
Soon footsteps were heard.
The Admiral is back...
Luo Ran looked up and saw Lucas standing aside, looking at him with a bad expression.
are you angry…
Because you want to take time off
Luo Ran was still holding a stack of folders in her hand, and asked, "The general is back, is the military parade going well?"
Lucas didn't answer, and rudely snatched the folder from Luo Ran's hand and said, "Why didn't you tell me when you're tired?!"
"I..." Lucas' unexpected anger made Luo Ran stunned. Luo Ran's hand suddenly became empty and looked at Lucas blankly.
"Why don't you apply for a break when you're tired?" Lucas threw the folder on the table, "Is this shit so important?!"
Luo Ran really didn't expect Lucas to react like this. He was stunned for a while, and subconsciously thought along with Lucas's words, and blurted out: "Yeah... It's very important."
That's not a ghost, it's the empire's military affairs and trade data with Luobing, if something goes wrong, it will be troublesome.
"… "
Lucas looked at Lorraine with a terrifying look.
Luo Ran lowered her eyes and said nothing.
"... I can't tell you." Lucas warned: "There can't be a next time."
Lorraine nodded.
But Lucas is not stupid, he frowned and asked, "You usually have a larger workload than this, why did you faint this time?"
Luo Ran's heart skipped a beat, and subconsciously stepped back half a step: "I don't know."
"Are you hiding something from me?" Lucas' face sank, and Luo Ran's half-step back obviously angered Alpha, who was in a bad mood. Lucas directly pressed Luo Ran against the wall behind him. Come on, don't let him slip away.
Luo Ran's hands were raised above his head and clasped, unable to move.
Luo Ran suppressed the nervousness in his heart, thinking that he was not in heat before he fainted, he had no pheromones on his body, and Xia Zhi didn't reveal the slightest bit, so he should be fine.
"I didn't." Lorraine looked at Lucas steadily and said, "I won't lie to you."
Lucas raised an eyebrow.
"If I lie to you, I'll..." Luo Ran stopped abruptly.
Although his face is calm, his heart is still empty.
"How about you?"
Luo Ran bit her head and said, "...I have the same surname as you."
I still don't dare to say too harshly, for example, if you are struck by lightning, you will not die. What if you are really struck by lightning.
Lucas looked at Lorraine blankly.
Luo Ran also looked back at him.
The two were deadlocked for a while, and Lucas was defeated and said fiercely: "If you have any physical problems, you are tired or have some illness, you must tell me, you can't lie to me."
"Okay." Luo Ran breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Lucas really didn't notice anything, raised his hand and said, "I promise."
Lucas loosened his grip on Luo Ran.
Luo Ran said: "Then I'll go back first."
"Sleep here, don't rush back and forth." Lucas pointed to his office and said, "The bed is for you."
"… "
Lucas stood in front of Luo Ran like a door god, Luo Ran didn't even have to think about it, he would not let himself go back.
Thinking in another way, if Lucas is sick, he doesn't want to let the other party run around.
Loran paused and tried to justify: "Actually, it's not a big deal to faint today, I..."
"take a break."
…
Luo Ran bit her head and followed Lucas in.
Lucas took off his military uniform and put on clean clothes.
The air was filled with the smell of restless tobacco. Luo Ran found a space and went to the bathroom outside to quickly hit a suppressant, just in case.
After Luo Ran came back, Lucas had washed up and sat on the sofa, his face still bad.
"What does that summer solstice have to do with you?"
Luo Ran: "?"
"Xiazhi, the name you read before you fainted."
Lucas moved his pillow and quilt to the sofa, which was obviously Loran's. Luo Ran carefully sat down beside the bed and replied, "Xiazhi is my friend and a doctor, that's why I thought of him. Admiral, you should have seen him. He used to follow you when you were young. Uncle's team fights everywhere together."
Lucas tapped his knees lightly with his fingers and said nothing.
The atmosphere was quiet again.
After a while, Luo Ran saw that Lucas didn't respond, and turned around to make the bed, using the spare quilt and pillows in the cabinet. The quilt was a little thinner, but it worked fine.
Luo Ran was about to lie down when he heard Lucas' voice coming from outside again.
"You like this? Like Omega?"
...
Luo Ran said helplessly: "Admiral, what are you thinking, Xia Zhi looks young, but he can be regarded as our elder."
Lucas nodded in approval: "You know it's good, he's old, even an Omega body can't do it."
"And he's not good-looking, and he's very long-winded. He can keep telling me and Lu Cheng when we go there."
Luo Ran thought to himself, if the Xia Solstice was here, he would probably vomit blood.
It's still not good looking, to be reasonable, Ren Xiazhi is also famous for being good-looking in the empire, and after the breakup of the engagement with Shen Xiluo, the suitors lined up several times.
Lucas sat hard on the sofa and said hard: "As a boss, I hope you can concentrate on your work and don't think about love and marriage all day long."
Luo Ran: "..."
I do not have it?
"The chief secretary of the empire looks like a secretary, and works well."
Luo Ran: "..."
