Chapter 176: Chapter 175: Kind-hearted Cheng Feng

Si Yuting did not refuse and took it.

The gun still had some residual warmth, and Si Yuting calmly loaded the bullets.

Qu Tong gave up her spot to Si Yuting.

The man’s movements were so standard they seemed like they came straight from a textbook, giving the impression that even the slightest deviation would ruin this ultimate elegance.

Another round of gasps ensued, a perfect score.

Unperturbed, Si Yuting walked off the platform and handed the gun to Qu Tong, "I’m giving it to you."

Qu Tong was startled for a moment, then happily accepted, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Ah! Indeed, the Admiral is generous.

How could Si Yuting’s gun possibly be an ordinary one?

The moment she fired the first shot she realized this: although the gun did not require spiritual power, its might was so great it could even penetrate a spirit power barrier.

Considering everyone was staring, Qu Tong refrained from giving Si Yuting a loving hug right there and then.

With a soft "Mhm," Si Yuting added, "The bullets are specially made. Wait for Xiong Lie to come back and get them from him."

Then, he allowed all the soldiers to rest where they were.

Si Yuting also found a clean spot and sat down, bending one leg and stretching the other, exuding a sense of casual elegance and wild beauty.

Originally, Qu Tong was sitting with Wen You, but when she saw Si Yuting about to take something out of a space button, Qu Tong quickly handed him an energy liquid, considerately.

"Your Highness."

Qu Tong’s smile was blooming like a flower today, kindly Cheng Feng helped her and Wen You get two more energy liquids.

In Si Yuting’s deep eyes, a gaze lingered on Qu Tong’s face for two seconds, then suddenly he smiled.

His slender fingers took it, and the slightly rough fingertips touched Qu Tong’s delicate skin; both were accustomed to this.

Si Yuting turned his head and waved Cheng Feng over.

Thinking there was something good, Cheng Feng walked over with a smile, only to return looking secretive.

Their whispering was so soft that Qu Tong could not hear clearly, her face full of curiosity.

But Si Yuting did not satisfy Qu Tong’s curiosity and instead took out a pale green potion from the space button and handed it to her.

Qu Tong took it with confusion and looked at it closely. Although it was green like the others, the potion Si Yuting gave her was a very clear green. A slight tilt showed that it was a solution, not like the viscous energy liquid from the logistics department.

Qu Tong did not drink it, but instead stored it in her space button and took out some grapes to offer to Si Yuting.

"Your Highness, have some fruit."

Si Yuting took a box and began to eat with a graceful poise.

Qu Tong offered the other box to Wen You, and seeing this, Cheng Feng moved back as well.

Qu Tong smiled lightly and handed him a box too.

She thought that when she had time, she should graft some grapevines on the hill behind them, so later, she could share some with the troops under Si Yuting’s command.

Qu Tong sat down next to Si Yuting, and with just a glance, he did not say anything.

There was a mission in the afternoon; Cheng Feng was leading a team to another planet, while Qu Tong followed Si Yuting on patrol.

Patrolling was a 24-hour shift task to avoid surprise attacks from the Insect Clan lurking outside the border on nearby planets.

The formation of wormholes was also unpredictable and required constant vigilance.

All this was told to her by Wen You, as Si Yuting was much more silent.

If Qu Tong did not ask, he would not take the initiative to speak. When asked, he would explain in just a few words and offer no further elaboration.

Qu Tong pursed her lips in boredom, and before long, she fell asleep in the co-pilot’s seat.

Si Yuting turned his head to watch Qu Tong’s peaceful sleeping face, quietly observing her for quite a while.

After cruising for a while longer, Si Yuting took Qu Tong back.

When the fighter jet stopped, Qu Tong also woke up.

"Still sleepy?" Si Yuting asked.

Qu Tong tilted her head to look at Si Yuting’s expressionless face, and wondered if it was her sleepy illusion that made his voice sound much gentler.

Qu Tong shook her head, unbuckled her seat belt, and followed Si Yuting out of the aircraft.

Right off the aircraft, they saw Xiong Lie and another man dressed like Xiong Lie running towards them.

"Madam!" Xiong Lie said with a simple smile, showing two rows of white teeth.

Wu Yue also stepped forward, greeting her with a warm smile, "Madam, nice to meet you for the first time, I am Wu Yue."

Compared to the distinctive features of Wen You and the other two, Wu Yue looked much more ordinary, the kind that wouldn’t catch special attention in a crowd; tall with wheat-colored skin, and when he smiled, it was open and hearty.

Now, Si Yuting’s trusted subordinates had all met her.

Si Yuting had training to do, so he let Qu Tong move around on her own.

After greeting the soldiers from both squads, Qu Tong was enthusiastically taken by Xiong Lie to collect bullets.

Xiong Lie gave her 100 of both regular and special bullets, and carefully explained the precautions to her.

In gratitude, Qu Tong gave Xiong Lie and the accompanying Wu Yue a plate of grapes each.

Before going for training, Si Yuting specifically told her it would end at six.

Qu Tong felt that Si Yuting never said anything unnecessary, so she went to wait at his door on time.

Before reaching the door, it opened automatically.

Qu Tong raised an eyebrow and looked inside, but no one was there.

As Qu Tong hesitated whether to enter or not, Si Yuting returned from outside.

At a glance, it was obvious he had just returned from training, his jacket draped over his wrist, the broken hair on his forehead damp with sweat, parts of his black shirt also stained dark with sweat, revealing smooth muscle lines on his bared forearms, simply bursting with hormones.

Their eyes met, and both paused for a moment.

Faced with Qu Tong’s unabashed admiring gaze, Si Yuting seemed to sense something inappropriate and told her, "Go in and sit for a while, I will be there soon."

"Alright," Qu Tong replied with a smile to Si Yuting, her voice trailing in a somewhat suggestive manner.

With previous experience, she certainly had no misunderstandings about Si Yuting, but that didn’t stop her from teasing him now and then.

Si Yuting seemed not to understand Qu Tong’s ambiguous tone and turned to leave.

He had intended to shower in his room, but with Qu Tong there, he had to find another place.

Qu Tong strolled leisurely into Si Yuting’s room, feeling no psychological burden, since Si Yuting had let her in, which meant he didn’t mind.

Upon entering, the first thing Qu Tong saw on Si Yuting’s desk, clashing with the black-and-white decor of the room, was the potted plant, the very one she had given him before. It seemed to be doing much better than she had imagined.

Qu Tong picked up the potted plant, sat down on the computer chair, gave a push with her feet, and spun half a circle.

After putting in some Special Ability, she counted the cherry tomatoes; the number had decreased a bit, the green ones had turned yellow, and there were several new buds.

Putting the cherry tomatoes back in their place, Qu Tong got up from the chair and walked over to Si Yuting’s bookshelf.

There were quite a few books on it, and the thickest and most noticeable was "Imperial Laws", placed in the most accessible position.

Besides that, there were many books about mecha and fighters.

She had heard from Xu An that when Si Yuting attended the First Military Academy, he double majored in the Mecha Single Soldier Department and Mecha Design Department.

But because his strength was so formidable, everyone tended to overlook the fact that he had also graduated as the top student from the Mecha Design Department.
