Chapter 144 I'm convinced
chapter 144
At this moment, Meng Youcheng's heart was about to burst out of his body. He could hardly believe his eyes, and he never expected that Fu Lian's mother would be so bold!
This kind of plot, which only appears in short films, is actually playing out in my own life right now.
Xu Guo looked at Meng Youcheng with a puzzled expression, "Major General, are you alright?"
Meng Youcheng smiled awkwardly, "Of course..."
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly trembled, his hands involuntarily gripping the stove in front of him. He swallowed hard, forcing himself to speak, and finally finished with a wry smile, "It'll be alright, how could I possibly..."
A strange feeling suddenly spread throughout his body. He frowned, exhaled, and said, "I'm really fine."
Seeing his unusual expression, Xu Guo stepped forward and asked, "Major General, why are you sweating so much?"
"Don't come any closer!"
Seeing him approach, Meng Youcheng quickly stopped him. Xu Guo froze on the spot. "What's wrong?"
Meng Youcheng braced himself against the stove, his mind racing, his body trembling uncontrollably. Sweat poured down his body, not from exhaustion, but from sheer fear. This damned affair terrified him.
He suddenly raised his head, coughed, and said, "I'm here... practicing my cultivation technique. Yes... you can't come near me right now, because if you do, my technique might..."
"Holy crap...!"
Before Meng Youcheng could finish speaking, his whole body trembled violently, and he uncontrollably cursed.
He closed his eyes tightly, then opened them, exhaled a long breath, and added, "It might all be for nothing, so don't come near me. If there's nothing else, you should leave now. I'll come find you later."
Xu Guo stepped forward worriedly, "But, Major General..."
"No, no...come any closer!"
When Meng Youcheng saw him approaching, he was so frightened that he became incoherent. If he could choose, he really wanted to pull up his pants and run away right now. If Xu Guo found out, how would he explain it?
And Fu Lian, damn it, he's got some nerve!
It can't be discovered, and it's impossible to explain because these are all facts. On the other hand, I clearly made up my mind that I would never touch a man in this world, so why did things develop like this in such a muddled way?
And what's worse, his deputy is right across from him, doing this kind of thing.
"Xu Guo!"
Meng Youcheng couldn't take it anymore. "I order you to leave immediately!"
Xu Guo was stunned...
Meng Youcheng continued to explain, "You're really disturbing my practice, you should..."
His brow furrowed, and his whole body trembled violently again. "Let's leave here."
Xu Guo thought for a moment, "By the way, Major General, where is that person? Wasn't he with you?"
Meng Youcheng glanced down at Fu Lian, who was working hard, and really wanted to punch him!
"He went to the restroom..."
Xu Guo nodded as if he understood, then turned and left. "Major General, please be careful. I'll close the door for you to prevent anyone from disturbing your practice."
"Thanks."
After Xu Guo left, Meng Youcheng couldn't take it anymore. He grabbed Fu Lian and lifted him up forcefully, yelling, "Are you crazy?! We've been found out! What are we going to do?!"
Fu Lian wiped his mouth with one finger. "So what if he finds out? He'll find out sooner or later. After all, he's your deputy general. How could he not find out? This is good. It will stop him from having inappropriate thoughts about you all the time. Let him know that the major general he's been longing for belongs to me, Fu Lian, alone. That will make him give up."
Meng Youcheng pulled up his pants, looked at the boy in front of him, and said, "I'm telling you this again, I don't want to do this, and I hope there won't be a next time. I hate this feeling."
He turned around and continued cooking as soon as he finished speaking.
Fu Lian froze for a few seconds, then hugged him and whispered in his ear, "Baby, are you angry?"
Meng Youcheng ignored him.
Fu Lian reached into his crotch again with one hand. "I saw you were quite excited just now, so I didn't stop. I thought you liked doing this. I'm sorry, don't be angry with me."
Meng Youcheng pulled his hand out without saying a word.
Fu Lian hugged him tightly, "You were so excited just now, I thought you..."
Meng Youcheng glanced back at him. "How could you not be excited in that kind of environment? But I really don't like it. I hope you can be more mindful of your behavior. You're over 20 years old; you should know how to act appropriately, right?"
"I called you here to help me with the cooking, not to satisfy my physical needs. Do you understand what I mean?"
Fu Lian released his hands. "I understand, I'll help... Should I wash the vegetables?"
……
After cooking, the group prepared to eat.
The old lady kept putting food on Fu Lian's plate...
This left the boy feeling helpless, but he couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and eat it.
The old lady stared intently at Fu Lian, "I didn't pay much attention before, but now it really does look like him..."
Fu Lian gave her a wary look. "Grandma, what do you mean by that?"
The old lady slowly walked into the room, took out a photograph, sat back down on the stool, and said, "You look just like my eldest son when he was young. When you came out of the kitchen just now, I felt like I saw him come back..."
"I almost called out his name to you. I don't know what happened. Maybe my eyesight is failing, or maybe I just miss him too much. There were several moments when I saw his image in you. This feeling is really hard to describe..."
Fu Lian was stunned, lowered his head, and said, "Really?"
The old lady picked up another piece of green vegetable for him. "Child, eat more. Look how thin you've become. You must not have been eating properly. Winter is coming soon, so wear more clothes and don't catch a cold. I just heard you say that you have no family. If you don't mind, I can be your grandma. If you come back from a mission and can't find your way home, you can come here to find grandma. No matter what, grandma will give you a place to stay."
These words were fatal to Fu Lian.
No one cared about his well-being. In the past, there might have been one or two people who cared, but now that he has become a mutant, he has never heard anyone care about him in more than ten years.
Tears welled up in my eyes as I looked up at the old woman…
Unable to express his feelings at this moment, the boy implicitly believed that the death of the old lady's child was closely related to him. Now, the old lady was showing him concern and care, a kind of fatal concern that left him truly at a loss for what to do.
Tears flowed out, like a surging river, flowing endlessly.
Meng Youcheng quickly went over and patted him on the shoulder, "Are you alright?"
The old woman asked, "Child, what's wrong?"
Fu Lian shook his head. "I'm probably tired from what I just did. I'd like to go back and rest for a while. You guys take your time eating."
……
After finishing his meal, Meng Youcheng washed the dishes in the kitchen.
Xu Guo walked in, "Major General..."
Meng Youcheng was stunned. "What is it?"
Xu Guo thought for a few minutes, "I might not be able to accompany you into the A4 area?"
Why?
He thought for a few more minutes and replied, "I have to leave tomorrow; I have other duties."
Meng Youcheng thought for a few minutes, but did not press for details. Instead, he said, "Then be careful."
"Um……"
……
It wasn't until 5 p.m. that Meng Youcheng and Xu Guo returned to the camp.
We've already had dinner. I walked around the campsite but didn't see the boy. He must be sleeping in his room.
Meng Youcheng didn't disturb him, but instead discussed the changes to the city with Mo Beizhen.
Xu Guo was tidying up her things in the room.
Suddenly, he came out of the room, looked at Meng Youcheng's back, and called out, "Major General, could you come here for a moment?"
Without much thought, Meng Youcheng walked over and followed him into the room, where Xu Guo closed the door.
Meng Youcheng looked at him. "Is there something you want to say?"
Xu Guo appeared very nervous, took a step forward, and said, "I..."
Meng Youcheng patted him on the shoulder, "If you need any help, just ask me. We've been in a superior-subordinate relationship for so many years, so don't be afraid."
Xu Guo mustered his courage, leaned closer, and prepared to kiss Meng Youcheng...
Meng Youcheng reacted quickly, stopping him from speaking. "Deputy General Xu, there may be some things I've done that have caused you to misunderstand. I still want to tell you that all along, I've only ever regarded you as my subordinate, friend, or even brother. Nothing more."
Xu Guo nodded awkwardly, tears welling in her eyes. "I know..."
Meng Youcheng sighed. "If there's nothing else, I'll go back to my room. I'm tired after a long day. You should get some rest; we have to travel tomorrow."
Before he could reply, Meng Youcheng left.
His mind was a bit muddled, and he wandered aimlessly to his front door...
Meng Youcheng thought for a moment, then pushed open the door and went inside...
Just as he closed the door, Fu Lian jumped out from behind and, catching him off guard, kissed him hard on the cheek. "Baby, why are you so late?"
Meng Youcheng pondered for a moment, "Didn't you say you were sleeping?"
Fu Lian whispered in his ear, "What are you going to do if you're not coming back to sleep?"
