CHAPTER 53: CHAPTER 53: LU SHINIAN’S DISGUISE IS REVEALED

Su Ruan saw him behaving normally and looked at him with some confusion.

What’s going on? Why did an ancestral regression phenomenon appear in the Second World, yet he behaves completely normally in reality?

No, it’s not that he behaves normally; it’s that this is his normal state.

While thinking, Lu Shinian had already pulled her to the sofa to sit down.

He directly pulled her into his arms, his large hand tightly clasped around her waist, his head buried in the crook of her neck, almost greedily absorbing the scent from her body.

After not seeing each other for a few days, he seemed as if he hadn’t seen her for a very long time, even his blood flowed with longing for her and repeatedly suppressed yet rising possessiveness.

"Ruan Ruan," Lu Shinian called softly, pulling back Su Ruan’s drifting thoughts.

She blinked, only to realize at some unknown point she had ended up sitting on his lap.

Her earlobes slightly reddened, she softly said, "Weren’t you on a mission?"

Lu Shinian’s body slightly stiffened, explaining calmly, "The mission’s completed."

"Then can you come home tonight?" Su Ruan’s eyes brightened, her small hand clenching onto Lu Shinian’s sleeve.

The cool touch from her fingertips made her reflexively grip tighter.

Lu Shinian’s eyes darkened slightly, after all, he couldn’t bear to see her disappointed, he responded softly, "Yes."

"That’s wonderful," Su Ruan chuckled lightly, "I’ve recently been designing military uniforms, I’ve only made a draft, maybe you can help me look at it tonight?"

"Sure," Lu Shinian immediately agreed.

His words made Su Ruan raise her eyebrow slightly, further confirming the suspicion in her heart.

Lu Shinian definitely doesn’t want her to know his identity in the Second World, after all, naming himself "Little Sweet" is something impossible for him.

Su Ruan smiled sweetly at Lu Shinian, not proactively revealing that she actually already knew he was "Little Sweet."

After confirming Lu Shinian didn’t display any ancestral regression phenomenon, Su Ruan quickly left the Military Department.

Anyway, Lu Shinian would come home tonight, she could hug him properly then.

Not long after Su Ruan left, Vice Wang hurriedly walked in.

"Report to the Commander!" Vice Wang saluted, his attitude respectful yet containing a hint of tension.

Lu Shinian glanced at him indifferently, his thin lips parting slightly, "Speak."

"The Lion Star Thief Group’s starship is closer to Star River Star," Vice Wang reported, "Do we need to send someone to negotiate?"

"No need," Lu Shinian narrowed his eyes, "Let’s wait and see."

Vice Wang had one hundred percent trust in their commander, any command from him, he would adhere to unconditionally, as it’s a basic military principle.

After Su Ruan returned to the Lu Family villa, the Light Brain sent her today’s military news headlines.

[What’s the purpose of the Lion Star Thief Group stationed outside Star River Star?]

Seeing the words "Lion Star Thief Group," Su Ruan clicked in, and the incoming comments dazzled her.

[Lion Star Thief Group? Holy! Is it the Lion Star Thief Group I know?]

[Are they planning to rob Star River Star? I heard Star River Star had several billion tourism revenue!]

[No way? Doesn’t the Lion Star Thief Group only prey on their own kind? They shouldn’t be robbing Star River Star, right? Can anyone come out and say something!]

[Thanks for the invitation, I’m right here on Star River Star, their starship has been docked for a while, right? No sign of movement, maybe they just want to tour Star River Star? After all, Star River Star’s scenery is beautiful, environment is great! Welcome everyone to travel!]
