His fingers rested on George Wells, “This man is fat, and the other two are thin.”
“More than two years, anyone’s body will change. Even height, as long as one wants to change their height, there is nothing modern technology can’t do.” Qin Yuan sighed slightly. “And all three of them are between 180 to 185cm. There’s not much of a height difference.”
Xu Xinghe asked, “Do you have their voices?”
“Wait a minute.” Qin Yuan transferred the audio and video recordings of the trio.
After listening to the public speeches of all three, Xu Xinghe still shook his head. “I remember that the person’s voice was a little lower. Although his tone seemed feminine and abnormal, the tone itself was still a little hoarse… However, I’m not sure if it was because of the mask at the time.”
“I was down there just now, and I didn’t smell his disgusting smell.” Xu Xinghe frowned for a while, then lowered his head suddenly and said, “Maybe he didn’t come.”
Standing behind him, Ling Changfeng patted him on the shoulder comfortingly.”Don’t worry…”
No matter who listened to this statement, it seemed like he hadn’t finished speaking when his words abruptly stopped after only half a sentence.
“Huh?” Xu Xinghe looked back at Ling Changfeng.
The latter pursed his lips, but said nothing.
Guessing that Ling Changfeng had his own arrangements, he didn’t ask any further questions. He simply asked, “What’s next?”
Ling Changfeng stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass of the VIP room on the second floor, looking at the sparkling stage with singing and dancing, silent. After a while, he suddenly said, “Let’s go down and dance in a while.”
Xu Xinghe was stunned: “Ah?”
Marshal Ling said concisely, “We’re already here.”
After speaking, he stretched out his hand, and invited his partner tonight.
Xu Xinghe looked at the hand that was handed over, and suddenly smiled. “Okay.”
He put his hand into the larger one.
“Whether that person is there or not, let’s have a good night first?”
Ling Changfeng gave a light hum.
Xu Xinghe smiled and asked him: “Why did you suddenly think of inviting me to dance? The words “we’re already here” don’t really sound like you. You didn’t plan for a long time, and practiced secretly at home, right?”
“No.” Ling Changfeng shook his head, “I don’t have time recently.”
Xu Xinghe: “…”
That’s true, recently Ling Changfeng has been so busy that his feet can barely touch the ground.
Thinking how Marshal Ling was even busier dealing with his matters at this time of year, Xu Xinghe’s eyes were a little apologetic. “I’ve caused you to work hard recently.”
Hearing him speaking Ling Changfeng gently tugged the hand he was holding and pulled Xu Xinghe close to him, and looked down.
He didn’t say “it’s not hard” with an expressionless face as he always did, but leaned slightly, put his hot breath on the ear of his little spouse, and asked in a low voice, “Then how are you going to reward me?”
Xu Xinghe’s ears were itchy, and his face suddenly turned red.
It’s not fair. After being together, his big cat’s skin has gotten a lot thicker.
Resisting the urge to turn his head, Xu Xinghe avoided the pair of teasing eyes, and asked with a blushing face, pretending to be calm, “What kind of reward do you want?”
“When things are over…” Ling Changfeng said in a low voice.
Just when Xu Xinghe thought he would make some brazen request, he saw the other party straighten up and changed the topic: “Let’s talk about it after the matter is over. Until then, just take care of yourself, and don’t worry about the rest.”
“Huh?” Xu Xinghe looked up at Ling Changfeng, always feeling that something was wrong with him.
Feeling him staring for too long, Marshal Ling couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong?”
“I suddenly remembered…” Xu Xinghe tilted his head, “At the end of this month, you’ll be celebrating your 53rd birthday?”
“You just remembered?” Ling Changfeng glanced at a faint look.
Then he said casually: “It’s nothing to worry about.”
“What’s the matter? Are you starting to care about age?” Xu Xinghe smiled like a malicious fox, leaned over and asked: “What birthday present do you want?”
Hearing his question, Ling Changfeng turned his head and gave him a deep look.
Xu Xinghe: “…”
He understood the possessiveness of the nakedness in the pair of gold and sapphire pupils, and was dumbfounded for a while.
“I say…” Adjutant Qin, who was huddled in the corner and tried to reduce his sense of existence, finally couldn’t help speaking up. “Have you forgotten that there is another person here?”
As soon as his words fell, he received a pair of matching looks from the pair of husbands.
Their eyes were clearly asking, “Why are you still here?”
Unable to express his anger, Qin Yuan obediently went to the door and waited.
Xu Xinghe originally expected today’s welcome dinner would be an earth-shattering farce.
But in the end, it ended in a happy and peaceful atmosphere.
Xu Xinghe and Ling Changfeng danced in the spotlight, and then went home arm in arm under the spotlight of the media.
It was as if they just went to a party.
The next day, Xu Xinghe went back to the Ark to work.
He looked at the five days circled on the calendar.
In two and a half days, the people of the Lambda system will be returning.
Maybe that person is really not part of the delegation, maybe he is already dead…
Xu Xinghe said to himself.
There’s still time. As long as that person is alive, he will be discovered one day.
And until that day comes, he has to live his own life.
He sighed inwardly and reached out to draw a cross on today’s calendar.
After seven o’clock in the evening, Xu Xinghe turned off his light brain and got off work after greeting his colleagues.
It was snowing again today, the cold wind was blowing, and the dark gray clouds were pressing down.
Xu Xinghe walked to the parking lot.
Ling Changfeng has been very busy at the end of the year, and has not been able to drop or pick him up from work for five or six days.
However, the people from the Marshal’s Mansion would still dutifully appear in the exclusive parking space every day to wait for him.
Xu Xinghe was walking, and suddenly received a call from Lily.
Seeing that it was his sister calling, he pressed the answer without thinking—
“Brother!!!”
The girl’s exclamation came from the earphone, which was different from her lively bubbly self. Her voice was full of panic and fear.
Xu Xinghe’s heart stopped suddenly.
“What’s wrong Lily?” His voice tightened a little.
“Shh, keep quiet.”
A familiar male voice came through the earphones.
“Stay calm and keep walking, okay? I’m here to talk to you about something.”
Xu Xinghe was standing in the wind and snow, cold from head to toe.
– It’s Gu Nai.
Minor ‘plot hole’ (as in iffy logic) coming up.
