Su Ling thought for a while and asked Ni An, “What do you think is an appropriate price?”

Ni An pondered and answered, “The raw material from Xian Mo Yu has great significance to the military. It can treat the damage caused by the dark matter from the outer space, which means the military’s combat ability can be improved.”

“Our planet spent a lot of time, energy, and money on every outstanding soldier. Many outstanding generals suffer from the illness caused by dark matters, and their recovery is also of great significance to the military.”

“In terms of efficacy, no matter how expensive the raw materials are, it is still reasonable. But since the military intends to buy out all the raw materials and accumulate it for a long time, it will be a huge expense for them if it is too expensive.”

The man leading the group earlier said, “As long as you don’t raise the price unreasonably, the military can accept it. Whenever we purchase materials from individuals or private companies, we have always paid the market prices and will not take advantage of you.”

Su Ling pondered for a moment and said, “Then we shall price it the same as high-grade dark matter inhibitor.”

All 4 soldiers were stunned by Su Ling’s words. Initially, they were worried that Su Ling would raise the price to gain more profit after knowing that the raw material is important. But they didn’t expect him to set the price so cheap.

Ni An was also a little surprised by the decision, “Are you sure?”

Su Ling nodded and smiled, “This is the second time I have cooperated with the military. Major Qian and I have signed a contract for Lopseed’s raw material.”

A smile appeared on the leading soldier’s serious face, “That rascal, he was showing off in front of me before this. He sure makes his move quickly.” Stretching out his hand in front of Su Ling, the man introduced himself, “Belle City Logistics Dept Chief Wang Qing, happy to meet you.”

Su Ling quickly reached out to shake hands and smiled, “Sorry if I was rude before. Nice to meet you, Chief Wang.”

Wang Qing shook his head and said, “No, I was impolite and too impatient. I didn’t introduce myself earlier. The price you set is very cheap. Thank you for your generosity.”

Su Ling solemnly said, “As a citizen in the Capital, I can’t enjoy living in a peaceful environment without the military.” He smiled embarrassedly, “This price is just a token from me. Sorry that I can’t gift it to you. I am actually quite poor, and I need to spend a lot of money on Xian Mo Yu’s daily expenditure.”

Hearing that, Chief Wang said with a straight face, “You don’t have to be sorry at all. To be able to think like this at such a young age, it’s really surprising.”

Several other soldiers agreed and nodded.

Su Ling smiled. He set that price because to him, 10,000 star coins per ml is already very high, and he didn’t have to work hard at all. As for his latter words, it was a word from his heart, and he wants to show his friendly intention. There is nothing wrong with leaving a good impression.

After the price was negotiated, the two parties signed the contract right away. Both red and black liquids currently available add up to a total of 1,000 ml. And so, Su Ling’s personal account instantly increases by 10 million. He was quite excited but still remained calm on the outside. Back on Earth, he can be considered a rich man with this amount in his bank account. He knew very well that when money reached a certain amount, it is just numbers.

Ni An and the rest looked at Su Ling with admiration. He has just reached adulthood but could maintain a stable temperament; that’s very rare. Chief Wang pointed to the soldier next to him and said, “These are the top soldiers from our special forces. Xian Mo Yu is important to us, so they will ensure both you and Xian Mo Yu’s safety in the future.”

Ain’t that exaggerating?

Su Ling waved his hand and said, “No need, Xian Mo Yu doesn’t need any protection.”

“How about your safety then?” Chief Wang hesitated before asking.

Generally, it is not easy for a spiritual plant specialist to get along with a Grade A spiritual plant, let alone Grade S. In case Su Ling has an accident, Xian Mo Yu would definitely hide away again. Then it will be very difficult for us to find it, let alone getting the raw material smoothly.

Su Ling: “With Xian Mo Yu with me, I will be safe. You should have seen the corrosive nature of its liquid? Don’t worry.”

Seeing that Su Ling rejected the suggestion, Chief Wang nodded and said, “Then, I won’t assign personal guards to you. Would you like to move to the military district? Together with Xian Mo Yu?”

Su Ling shook his head, “I hope that my cooperation with the military will not affect my daily life.”

Chief Wang immediately understood what he meant. He could understand that, after all, Su Ling is just a young Omega and won’t like living in a serious and formal environment.

“Alright, if you have anything to ask, you can contact me at any time.”

Su Ling nodded, “Okay.”

After the group left, Su Ling went to see Xian Mo Yu in Room No.1. Xian Mo Yu’s flower petals were flat, and its roots laid limply on the ground, looking very dejected. As soon as Xian Mo Yu saw him, its roots immediately wrapped around his wrist, and a picture of the office building’s garden appeared in his mind. On the other hand, its roots tried to pull him to go out.

“You want to go there?”

Xian Mo Yu’s roots nodded.

Su Ling: “You found your friend?”

Xian Mo Yu’s petals lifted lightly, and the roots were tangled together, but it did not give a clear answer.

This is the first time Xian Mo Yu has avoided answering his question. Some guesses flashed in Su Ling’s mind, but he did not continue to ask.

“Wait here, I need to ask the researcher team. If you go there, their monitoring system may need to be transferred as well.”

Hearing that, Xian Mo Yu’s roots stiffened. And as if in a daze, it fell softly to the ground. Xian Mo Yu retracted its roots, and its petals closed as if it is going to sleep.

Changed your mind so soon? Su Ling smiled and asked, “Not going anymore?” Xian Mo Yu stretched out a root and nodded, so Su Ling said, “Good night.”

Exiting Room No.1, Su Ling went upstairs with Gu Liheng. Instead of going back to his own room, he went to Gu Liheng’s room and headed directly into the bedroom. He had only taken 2 steps inside when Gu Liheng stopped him, “Ling Ling.”

Su Ling turned back, “What’s the matter?”

Gu Liheng looked into his eyes and hesitated, “You… you really wanted to stay here tonight? I’m afraid I can’t control myself.”

Blinking, Su Ling took out a small bottle and sprayed it in the air, “I just want you to try the fragrance I made and see if it can improve your sleep.”

A hint of embarrassment flashed on Gu Liheng’s face. Su Ling’s eyes curled with smiles, spraying perfume while walking, “I didn’t plan to stay, but you reminded me that there is actually a good way to promote sleep, so I’m staying.”

Not saying anything, Gu Liheng simply stood there. His eyes followed Su Ling, and his gaze was deep.

After spraying every place, particularly at the head of the bed, Su Ling makes sure that the air is full of soothing fragrance before putting the bottle in the backpack. Seeing that Gu Liheng hadn’t moved from his earlier position, he couldn’t help but chuckle. He walked to Gu Liheng, raised his hand around Gu Liheng’s neck, and rubbed the back of his(GLH) neck.

Shocked, Gu Liheng grabbed his hand, “Ling Ling!”

Su Ling squinted and tilted his head, “To be fair, you can help me take mine off.”

Gu Liheng didn’t move but stared intently at Su Ling as he asked, “Do you know what you are doing?”

Hearing that make Su Ling flushed, but he nodded, “I know.”

“I’ll take a shower first.” Gu Liheng said after a thoughtful silence before letting go of his hand.

Su Ling: “…what were you thinking about just now?”

Gu Liheng looked away slightly before saying, “Precautions and things to note when getting together with an Omega.”

The corner of Su Ling’s mouth curved up. Staring at Gu Liheng’s handsome but tough facial features, he really loves his(GLH) sincere character to death. “What precautions?” he asked.

Gu Liheng moved slightly towards the bathroom, seeming to want to avoid answering the question. So, Su Ling grabbed his hand and lightly squeezed his finger, “Can’t you tell me? Well, I should also check what precautions to get together with an Alpha.”

“You don’t need to check,” Gu Liheng’s eyes fell on him again, “you don’t need to pay attention.”

“Really? So what do you need to pay attention to?” Su Ling just wanted to tease him at first,
and he really wanted to know by his reaction.

Gu Liheng: “Omega is delicate and soft, and they have a delicate mind. It is necessary to pay attention to hygiene to avoid causing any feeling of disgust. Must always pay attention to Omega’s reaction, take care of them carefully, and…”

“Alright, I know,” Su Ling was inexplicably embarrassed when he heard it, “You go take a bath.”

Gu Liheng glanced over his red cheeks, and a smile flashed in his eyes. Although the young man behaved boldly, he is very simple deep inside; so cute and make one feel soft-hearted.

When Gu Liheng went to the bathroom, Su Ling immediately ran out and rushed to his own room. Taking the bathrobe, he ran to the bathroom.

When one didn’t have any thoughts, they could stay calm. But once the idea appears, one just couldn’t hold it back and couldn’t help being excited. As the two are taking their bath, another scene is happening behind the main building. 2 friends who had not seen each other for many years were talking about their feeling of reunion.

To be precise, it was Xian Mo Yu who talked, and Lóng Mo Téng listened.

[Banana : Sorry for the interruption. It’s better to explain about LMT here than making you guys go up and down for the footnote. 龙魔藤/Lóng Mo Téng is the friend and could be translated as Dragon Devil Vine, but it’s slightly long to keep the name and felt out of place since Xian Mo Yu’s name was not translated. Thanks for reading this~ ]

3 of Xian Mo Yu’s roots emerged from the ground, and because it was too far away, the roots could only protrude about 10 cm from the ground. Fortunately, they were very flexible, so Xian Mo Yu could constantly change its shapes. It released a small amount of fragrance to communicate with its friend.

Xian Mo Yu: “Angry! It has been so many years, you didn’t even say hello when you see me, and still requested not to be discovered by humans.”

Xian Mo Yu: “Unreasonable! Do you know how long I have been looking for you?”

Xian Mo Yu: “Wronged! Only I missed you, but you don’t miss me.”

Lóng Mo Téng: “Stop with your stupid accusations. Being discovered by humans insults my identity as the Dragon Devil Vine. And you were not looking for me; you were looking for your son. What do you think I am staying here for?”

Xian Mo Yu made a big question mark.

A slender grass next to its roots glowed with green light as Lóng Mo Téng explained, “This is the spiritual plant registration association. Your son was taken away by humans. So if you found out about it, you will definitely come here.”

Xian Mo Yu’s roots shook happily, “I knew it, you miss me too, you are my best partner!”

Lóng Mo Téng: “Stop with your silly behavior. If I wasn’t so bored in the forest, and this place has a lot of people going back and forth, I would not stay there for so long.”

Xian Mo Yu: “Hehehe, admit it, you were looking for me.”

Lóng Mo Téng: “You can go away now. Don’t contact me anymore.”

Xian Mo Yu’s roots entangled around the little grass, “No, go with me.”

Lóng Mo Téng: “Humans will destroy us.”

“No, my son wouldn’t do that!”

“That is a human, not your son.”

Xian Mo Yu: “He is my son, don’t you feel it? The aura on his body is the same as mine, full of natural scent.”

Lóng Mo Téng: “Stupid. Return to the forest with me.”

“No, my son is only 19 years old. He’s too young; I have to protect him. You are also his elder, so you have to protect him with me.”

Lóng Mo Téng: “… for how long?”

Xian Mo Yu: “How old are we again? 1860 or 1680? Then at least 600 years old ba.”

Lóng Mo Téng: “Were you sleeping when we eavesdropped on humans in their class? He can only live up to 300 years old at most.”

A big tearful TwT filled Lóng Mo Téng’s mind.

Lóng Mo Téng: “Stop your tearful behavior, are you stupid? Dying at the age of 300 is a natural death. Human beings go through life and die like this.”

Xian Mo Yu: “There’s too little time that I can spend with him, let alone leaving now. You and I will protect him together. When he is gone, then we will return to the forest.”

Lóng Mo Téng did not respond.

Xian Mo Yu’s roots shook, and it shared the pictures of the nutrient solution with Lóng Mo Téng, saying, “This nutrient solution is super delicious, so we don’t need to go hunting; very leisurely. Didn’t you say you like to see things made by humans? I can ask my son to give you a personal bracelet!”

The little grass shook, and Lóng Mo Téng said, “Let me say this first. If humans want to do something bad to us, we will return to the forest together.”

“My son wouldn’t do that!”

The little grass retracted into the ground inch by inch, “No? Then I’ll go back to the forest now, goodbye!”

“I promise!” The roots entangled around the little grass, “I will protect you!”

Lóng Mo Téng: “Heh.”

Su Ling had no idea that his ‘new dad’ got him an uncle bodyguard. After taking a shower, he ran to Gu Liheng’s room. When he passed the aisle, he smelled a whiff of rich fragrance from Xian Mo Yu.

What got it so happy?

Suspicion flashed for a second in his mind, but he didn’t have time to think. He ran to Gu Liheng’s room and was given a bear hug as soon as he entered the door. A mellow red wine scent mixed with cedar hit his face, causing his feet to soften instantly. The back of his neck became hot, and the citrus mint fragrance emanates continuously from his gland. His voice was a little hoarse as he asked, “You have taken yours off?” His isolator was taken down during the bath.

Gu Liheng answered with a low En. He picked Su Ling up and walked to the bedroom.

Su Ling rubbed his forehead against Gu Liheng’s shoulders. His body heat continued to rise, and the gland at the back of his neck felt agitated. Other than that, his body felt empty, and it makes him wanted to get closer to male god. After Gu Liheng put him on the bed, and he saw his male god was about to stand up, Su Ling subconsciously wrapped his hands and feet around his male god and said, “No… don’t leave.”

After he finished speaking, Su Ling frowned and tilted his head. Since when did he become so sticky?
