Chapter 2743: Transmigrated to the Noble Academy as a Special Recruitment Student 28
Ke Er Li Qi and Ling Ling's faces were black enough to drip soy sauce.
They never expected that, for a special recruitment student, Ling Yao would not hesitate to drag in the other three families, putting up such a hardline attitude, almost completely tearing faces apart.
Ling Ling stuck out his neck, shouting fiercely but inwardly weak: "Ling Yao! What gives you the right to represent the whole Ling family?"
Before he finished speaking, Ling Yao splashed a whole glass of red wine on his face.
"You've stayed at my place too long, isn't your mind not clear?"
Ling Yao's eyes were chillingly cold.
Ke Er Li Qi watched this scene, secretly startled.
Ling Yao's one-person threat he might still be able to contend with, but these four people simultaneously expressing their stance, the energy they represent could shake half the federation.
Even his older brother who commands two main corps probably couldn't simultaneously withstand the joint pressure of these four families! Today this face is definitely lost!
"Well... I'm not absolutely insisting on it either." Ke Er Li Qi suppressed his anger, gritting his teeth.
He now only hates Ling Ling this idiot, insisting on swelling his face to look fat, confidently claiming he could definitely get the gene liquid, putting him on the fire to roast!
Damn it!
But Ke Er Li Qi still tried to save some face, shouting: "But is this your attitude toward me?"
Ling Yao changed to a chilling smile, perfectly carrying out "strike first, courtesy later".
"How could that be, Major General misunderstood." He said with a smile, "Please, Major General, have someone send over that bottle of gene liquid right now."
"We guarantee, we will definitely be courteous to you from now on."
Ke Er Li Qi glared fiercely at Ling Ling, let out a heavy grunt, and slammed the door so loudly it shook the heavens.
Ling Yao merely considered him as providing accompaniment for fun.
Not long after, the gene repair liquid was delivered to the private room.
Ling Yao turned and handed it to Jin Chen, staring at him unblinkingly: "Quick, drink it."
Ling Yao intently watched Jin Chen's expression until he finished drinking, then anxiously asked.
"How do you feel? Will you be fine from now on?"
Jin Chen's heart went soft, he reached out and pinched his tense cheek flesh: "There's no way it works that fast; I don't even know the specific effects."
Lin Baiyu suddenly suggested: "We can go to the Military Department's testing station for a mental power spectrum test; my previous appointment hasn't been cancelled."
Ling Yao turned his head to look at Lin Baiyu, curled his eyes: "Good."
Lin Baiyu met his clear gaze, was stunned for a moment, then looked away.
In a corner unnoticed by anyone, Ai Li Ke stared at the empty gene liquid container, then looked at the cared-for Jin Chen, and thought of his own futile effort like trying to fetch water with a bamboo basket; the desperate evil fire rose straight to his head, making him almost smoke with anger.
The auction finally came to an end.
Lin Baiyu passed through the corridor, communicated via terminal with his older brother to confirm the specific time for going to the Military Department for examination.
Just as he was about to leave after ending the communication, his peripheral vision caught a familiar figure flashing past the corner at the end of the corridor.
Lin Baiyu's steps paused, his long legs in military boots unconsciously moved a few steps toward that direction.
Immediately after, he forcibly stopped.
He stood in the shadow, his gaze sweeping over the curve of the corner.
Jin Chen had his back to him, holding Ling Yao half-embraced in his arms, lowering his head to gently kiss, deep affection and tenderness overflowing.
From this angle, Lin Baiyu saw Ling Yao's upturned side face, eyes closed, almost indulgent in obedience.
Lin Baiyu felt as if pricked, a hollow sourness.
He stood there silently, looked for a few seconds, then left along the way he came.
At the corner, Jin Chen sensed the movement, slightly lifted his eyes to look behind Ling Yao, but only saw an empty corridor.
"... What's wrong?" Ling Yao, breath unsteady from the kiss, eyes still a bit hazy, asked vaguely.
"It's fine." Jin Chen withdrew his gaze, fingertips lightly hooked the small hard bead in his mouth, smiled softly: "Today it's orange flavor?"
"Mm." Ling Yao responded, then actively licked Jin Chen's lip corner, as if still wanting more.
He suddenly thought of something, pulled Jin Chen's hand to place it on his own firm abdomen, and asked softly.
"You really don't like navel piercings?"
Jin Chen tapped his forehead.
"It hurts a lot." Jin Chen didn't really agree, and naturally pulled him into his embrace, rubbing his soft hair top: "You're still thinking about the waiter thing, you bad-tempered young master."
"... Hmph, who knows you anyway, you're basically a pervert."
Ling Yao murmured in his embrace, sounding like complaining but clearly being coquettish.
He lifted his face, the faint red at the corners of his eyes spreading bit by bit, brushing against Jin Chen's lips as he spoke: "There's still candy, you... kiss me again."
Lin Baiyu alone walked down the auction house's rotating staircase, military boots stepping on the ground.
On the first floor lobby, a not-unfamiliar sound came from behind Lin Baiyu.
"Young Master Lin, please stay."
Lin Baiyu's steps halted, he alertly turned back.
Major General Ke Er Li Qi stood there, a smile on his face.
"Major General, anything?" Lin Baiyu's voice returned to its usual cold.
Ke Er Li Qi took a few steps closer: "Let's chat, I guarantee it's something you're interested in, maybe it can untie some of your... knots."
Lin Baiyu remained silent for a few seconds, understanding the implied meaning in the words.
"Okay."
——
Jin Chen returned to the rented house located on the outskirts of the academy.
Here, far from the bustle of the noble district, it's also convenient for handling some matters.
Just as he reached the gate of the old residential complex, the uniformed guard's eyes lit up, he stepped onto his hover scooter and whooshed over to him.
"Finally back!" the guard shouted loudly, pointing at the pile of parcels stacked like a small mountain, "Look, these are all yours! I've been watching them for you—I almost had nowhere to stand!"
Jin Chen looked at the parcel heap almost blocking the door, his brows furrowed, "I didn't order any delivery."
"Let me check the shipping info..." the guard took out a scanner, "Hey, the sender left a note saying if you don't need it, you can dispose of it however you like—give it away or throw it away."
He glanced at the shipping address again and exclaimed, "Wow! It came straight from the Star Coronet Auction House! Amazing!"
Jin Chen's eyes flickered slightly; the things Ling Yao had bought had already been sent to the villa.
Ling Yao would never attach such a casual note.
Jin Chen only pondered for a moment, feeling it was irrelevant.
No matter who it was, he had no intention of accepting it.
"Send it back to the original address." Jin Chen said concisely to the guard, also handing over a tip.
The guard took the money, his eyes instantly crinkling into a smile; tenants in this area rarely are this generous.
"All right, rest assured! I guarantee not a single item will be missed—I'll return everything spotless!"
Jin Chen said no more, went around the troublesome pile, opened the door and entered the room.
