Star Beast World: Super rare females become popular

Chapter 22

Lan Heng's eyes were cold, and he made the final decision: "In short, I'm sorry, I will not approve your application for protection."

Li Zhi didn't say anything. It was only at this moment that she realized that Jiang Yue became her guardian at the cost of his own career and life safety.

With such a heavy weight of almost sacrificial dedication, she could not make any unilateral decision on his behalf, and wanted to wait for Jiang Yue to come back and ask him seriously first.

She looked at Lan Heng, thinking of him as Jiang Yue's superior and the center of power in the empire. She bit her lip slightly and asked the question that had been suppressed in her heart for a long time: "Is Jiang Yue okay now?"

Lan Heng lowered his eyes and could clearly see the undisguised worry and concern on her face, and suddenly an inexplicable wave of emotion arose in his heart.

In order to save the males, each of the females in the empire is responsible for hundreds of males. Apart from the responsibility of comforting them and the numbness of exhaustion, they rarely have any special sincerity or emotions.

But this little female in front of him, who had no pheromones, gave something that other females in the empire rarely gave.

Lan Heng was silent for a moment, then told the truth: "Jiang Yue is carrying out a top-secret mission. Once exposed, not only will the mission fail, but his life may also be in danger."

"In order to avoid being exposed and for safety reasons, he cannot use his personal computer to contact anyone during this period, so I don't know his situation."

"However, Jiang Yue is the most outstanding S-rank major general that has ever appeared in the empire. Based on the difficulty of this mission and his personal abilities, he will return safely."

Hearing his words, Li Zhi felt a little more at ease. He smiled sincerely and thanked him softly, "Thank you for telling me."

Lan Heng was slightly stunned and looked at her strangely: "I stopped him from being your guardian, why are you thanking me?"

Li Zhi said sincerely, "You are doing this for Jiang Yue's own good. I understand that, but I can't make any decisions on his behalf. So we need to wait for him to come back and talk it over. Then we can ask him to withdraw his application."

A trace of surprise flashed across Lan Heng's wise and cold eyes, and he fell silent.

He had imagined that this little female would be angry and dissatisfied, or even cry out of resentment, but he had never expected that she would be so considerate and considerate of others.

Most people in the world are selfish and seek to maximize their own interests, but she gave her precious sincerity and real intentions.

In his eyes, these were dregs and burdens, completely contrary to the absolute rationality he had always pursued.

However, this little female not only did not make him feel sneer or disgust, but instead made him feel inexplicably touched.

He was silent for a moment, then said, "Let's go. I'll take you back."

Li Zhi quickly said, "No, no, I can go back by myself."

Lan Heng had already taken the first step without question, and said in a calm voice: "From time to time, males on the street lose control and transform into beasts. It's not safe for a little female like you, so let's go."

"I'm fine." Li Zhi jogged after him.

When Lan Heng sent Li Zhi home, Su Jing had already returned. Hearing the noise, he immediately went to open the door.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw the cute and soft Xiao Li Zhi, and the annoying dead face behind her.

Su Jing's originally throbbing joy suddenly dissipated halfway. He raised his eyebrows and looked at her coldly, his eyebrows full of rejection and diswelcome: "Why are you with Xiaoli Zhi?"

Lan Heng was used to his bad attitude and looked back calmly: "We met by chance, send her back."

Su Jing crossed his arms across his chest and snorted coldly, saying, "It is a great honor to have the commander, who is so busy, personally send me off."

It's almost like saying it out loud, but I'm afraid he's just trying to be a weasel visiting a chicken and has bad intentions.

Lan Heng looked at him and said in a slightly serious tone: "I won't hurt a little female."

Su Jing pulled the corners of his lips and sneered: "You just won't hurt directly, but it's hard to say about indirect harm, right?"

Lan Heng looked at him for a moment without saying anything. He looked away and lowered his eyes to look at Li Zhi in front of him: "You are here, I am leaving."

Li Zhi thanked him in Chinese style: "Thank you for taking me home. It's a bother for you. Otherwise, you can stay for dinner before leaving."

Upon hearing this, Lan Heng looked at Su Jing, and a hint of surprise flashed in his wise eyes behind the lenses. It seemed that he did not expect that the noble young master who had always been lazy, noble and proud could actually cook.

Li Zhi understood his unspoken meaning and quickly explained: "I'll do it. My craftsmanship is pretty good~"

Lan Heng was visibly surprised. His gaze towards Su Jing suddenly changed, and the meaning in his eyes was very clear: Is this how you take care of females? Su Jing sneered, but did not say anything and responded with a cold look that showed he was not welcome and told him to get out.

Li Zhi didn't notice Su Jing's expression behind him. He curved his eyebrows and invited Lan Heng again: "How about it? I cook very quickly. If it doesn't take up your time, let's eat first and leave later."

Lan Heng's Adam's apple moved slightly, a complex light flashed in his eyes, and he nodded for some unknown reason.

Su Jing: "." The sky is falling! The house is dirty!

Thirty minutes later, the three of them sat at the dining table, which was filled with sumptuous food.

Su Jing looked coldly at the man who he had never thought would appear at the same table with him. The style was seriously inconsistent with the warm home. He was sitting upright and looking at the dishes on the table.

"Eat quickly, and leave quickly after eating. We can't afford to waste the commander's time."

Li Zhi gently tugged at the corner of Su Jing's clothes, signaling him not to make the atmosphere so awkward. She smiled and introduced today's dishes to Lan Heng, trying to ease the atmosphere.

"Try it. This is a dish from my hometown. See if you like it~"

Lan Heng took a bite, and the delicious taste of the home-cooked meal blossomed in his mouth, entering his internal organs, and even flowing into his usually cold heart and mind, leaving an anchor of memory.

At this time, the lights were bright and the food smelled delicious. He suddenly felt the feeling buried deep in his memory from this soft little female, the long-lost warmth of home.
Lan Heng's brain suddenly beeped. He glanced at the message, then glanced at Li Zhi with an ambiguous look. He immediately put down his chopsticks and stood up: "Thank you for the treat. Sorry, I have something to do and I'll leave first."

He paused, his voice so calm that no emotion could be heard: "It's delicious, thank you."

Li Zhi smiled and said, "As long as you like it, you are welcome to come again next time~"

Lan Heng's Adam's apple moved slightly. He looked at her deeply from the side, then turned and left.

Su Jing watched coldly as the annoying guy left. As soon as he stepped out, he immediately closed the door as if to isolate him from plague and poisonous insects.

He slowly exhaled the turbid air in his chest and looked at Li Zhi: "Little Li Zhi, how did you run into this guy? He didn't do anything to you, did he?"

Li Zhi briefly told him about the conversation at the Regulatory Bureau today, but did not mention that she already knew that they had concealed the side effects of the inhibitor from her. She planned to talk about it after Jiang Yue came back.

Su Jing snorted coldly: "I knew that this guy named Lan would never agree."

"But don't worry, Xiaoli Zhi, once my affairs are settled, I, your brother, will be your guardian."

Without waiting for Li Zhi to answer, he immediately said with a smile in his peach blossom eyes: "Little Li Zhi, I received your love bento, I'm very surprised! But why didn't you say anything and just left it and left?"

Li Zhi thought about what happened in the afternoon again and said vaguely: "Well, I saw you were busy, so I didn't disturb you."

Su Jing smiled, feeling extremely happy: "Why would I bother you? Brother really loves you so much!"

Li Zhi hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Su Jing, why do you always call me brother, and why are you willing to be my guardian?"

Su Jing didn't doubt it, shrugged his shoulders, and teased in a casual voice: "Because you are as cute as a younger sister! And didn't I tell you that I have a younger sister, I am very good at taking care of people, let me be your guardian, don't worry~"

He paused for a moment, then belatedly asked, "Don't you like me saying this?"

Li Zhi immediately shook her head: "I don't dislike it, I'm just asking out of curiosity~"

But she thought silently in her heart, as expected, Su Jing has always treated her like a younger sister.

What he really cares about is the female who is very important to him, so for her, he gave up martial arts and turned to medicine, and was unwilling to marry the princess.

It was she who had the inappropriate thoughts of crossing the line and the impulse of self-indulgent feelings.

Then let’s nip it in the bud as soon as possible and be good brother and sister.

Jiang Yue was on an undercover mission, and for fear of being exposed, he had never used his smart brain to contact anyone.
