Ling Mu didn’t know why he agreed to Qiu Zhenyang’s request to have a meal together. By the time he reacted, his hands were already stuffed with a pair of chopsticks.

“These dishes look pretty good.” After Qiu Zhenyang opened the lunch box, looking at the food in this world with great interest.

These meals are very different from the ones in his original world. Most of them are things he has never seen before. Some dishes are blue when fried, and some are pink. The meat doesn’t look very different though.

Qiu Zhenyang was thinking that since everyone eats like this, the unique appearance is acceptable, and the taste should be good, so he sandwiched a piece of pink vegetable.

Putting the vegetables in his mouth and chewing it twice, Qiu Zhenyang’s face suddenly changed. He directly spat the dish in his mouth out, and it fell straight into Ling Mu’s lunch box.

Ling Mu with a blank face: “…”

Qiu Zhenyang with a face full of embarrassment: “…Uh, sorry, that, I didn’t mean it.”

After exchanging the lunch box he hadn’t touched with Ling Mu’s, he shyly threw the above dishes into the trash can beside the table.

God, he has never eaten such an unpalatable thing ever!

Qiu Zhenyang didn’t dare to stretch his chopsticks again, and could only pick up rice, watching Ling Mu’s eat the colorful dishes without changing his face. Fortunately, the rice still retains its original taste. After chewing for a while, the the soft, glutinous sweetness is not uncomfortable to eat.

“I say, how do you feel when you eat this dish?” Qiu Zhenyang asked cautiously, worried that his taste was different from the people here. Maybe it’s because he transmigrated here, that even if the original body and him share the same appearance, only younger by a few years, he’s still from the other side.

Ling Mu raised his eyes, took another chopstick and put it in his mouth to chew. “It’s unpalatable.”

Qiu Zhenyang was relieved. It seemed that his sense of taste was normal.

He continued to cook rice silently, flipping through the memories in his mind, and found that the original owner always ate this kind of unpalatable and explosive food from childhood. The interstellar people seem used to these dishes. Although its unpalatable, it can fill their stomachs, and is slightly better than nutritional supplements.

Nutritional supplements are quite popular meal replacements in the interstellar. Compared to real vegetables and meat, they are more convenient and cheaper, so many people choose to eat nutritional supplements instead of meals. However, nutritional supplements are still not as good as food, especially for young people who are growing. The satiety and satisfaction cannot match eating real food, so the cafeteria of the Interstellar Academy will provide real meals.

In the end, Qiu Zhenyang still braved another chopstick of meat and vegetables. After he closed his eyes and ate it with difficulty, he realized that the taste of meat was much better than that of vegetables, but compared to his original world, the taste was still far worse.

It seems that if he wants to eat a delicious meal here, he has to find time himself.

Qiu Zhenyang absent-mindedly ate the meal, but Ling Mu was quite interested.

Since his mother married into the Lin family, Ling Mu has not asked for any living expenses from the Lin family. Usually, he relies entirely on part-time jobs to support himself and his younger sister. In terms of diet, he can only buy cheap nutritional supplements. After being kicked out by the Lin family, with his wasteful mother, Ling Mu’s life was even more embarrassing, and he almost couldn’t even afford nutritional supplements. He bought a few in the cafeteria today, but they were knocked over by Lin Nuo.

In order to save money, Ling Mu didn’t buy any more. He thought he was going to be hungry today, and didn’t expect Qiu Zhenyang to come over with a meal. Although Ling Mu didn’t say anything, he was still grateful.

He was just cold-tempered, not ignorant.

“By the way, I also brought the ointment here.” After Qiu Zhenyang saw Ling Mu consciously put away the lunch box, he smiled and took out the ointment. “After you passed out at the test site, I took you to the cave, and didn’t pay much attention, causing you to be scratched up. I’m sorry.”

Worried about Ling Mu’s rejection, Qiu Zhenyang made a random excuse.

“No.” But even so, Ling Mu was still very resistant, and frowned.

Qiu Zhenyang sighed inwardly. Just as he was about to persuade him again, the terminal on Ling Mu’s wrist suddenly rang.

He raised his hand and saw that it was his sister’s video call.

Ling Mu glanced at Qiu Zhenyang and saw that the latter raised his hand quite obediently and made a zipper gesture on his mouth before connecting.

“Brother!” As soon as the video was connected, a little girl in her teens appeared on the screen in a one meter square projection. The little girl is pink, tender, and well-behaved. She has a face that resembles Ling Mu’s, and looks quite excited with her twin ponytails.

“Ling Dang, is school over? Did you listen to the teacher at school?” Ling Mu’s expression softened as soon as he spoke to his sister, his eyes containing obvious tenderness.

Qiu Zhenyang watched silently, feeling a little itchy in his heart.

When would he wear such an expression watching him?

The little girl was cheerful and lively, and spoke softly. After reporting her situation to her brother these days, she asked worriedly, “How was brother’s test? It doesn’t matter if you didn’t passed. Ling Dang will accompany brother, don’t be afraid~”

Hearing his sister’s words, Ling Mu’s heart was warm, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly. “I’ve passed, don’t worry.”

That smile made Qiu Zhenyang feel hot all over, and his breathing became heavier. Unable to control it for a while, the pheromones on his body actually became denser.

The faint smell spread in the room, like the smell of a quilt that has been soaked in the sun, seeming warm, light, and gentle. Ling Mu didn’t realize it at first, but when he noticed it, his eyes widened, and he looked back at Qiu Zhenyang in disbelief.

What’s up with this guy?

Being stared at, Qiu Zhenyang’s face became hot and he coughed awkwardly.

“Hey, brother, is there anyone else in your room?” Ling Dang heard the sound and looked towards Ling Mu suspiciously, but couldn’t see anything from the camera.

Qiu Zhenyang couldn’t stand Ling Mu’s gaze, so to hide his embarrassment, he went directly to a spot the camera could see, and greeted Ling Dang with a grin. “Hi little sister, my name is Qiu Zhenyang, I’m your brother’s friend.”

Ling Mu was unable to react in time, and couldn’t stop Qiu Zhenyang. He could only watch him break into his sister’s sight.

“Wow, my brother actually has friends!” Ling Dang excitedly clapped her hands happily.

Ling Mu’s face turned black with embarrassment.

Qiu Zhenyang laughed out loud. He couldn’t help but shoot Ling Mu a teasing look, and asked Ling Dang, “So happy?”

Ling Dang nodded vigorously. Ignoring her brother’s stinky face, she said softly: “My brother has never had any friends. Ling Dang is very worried that brother will be bullied at school… Big brother, if you are my brother’s friend, please take care of my brother at school!”

“Ling Dang, what are you talking about!” Ling Mu was so angry with his sister that he wanted to vomit blood and pushed Qiu Zhenyang away, frowning fiercely. “Why the hell do I need his care?”

Being yelled at by her brother, Ling Dang pouted, pretending to be aggrieved and fell silent.

When Ling Mu saw tears in his sister’s eyes, he immediately regretted it. But he was unable to turn his face so quickly, and flushed.

Qiu Zhenyang couldn’t stand it any longer. He smiled and put his arms around Ling Mu’s shoulders, and winked at the camera. “Don’t worry, little sister, I will take good care of your brother.”

He looked at the cute girl in the video, and his heart was sour. Such a well-behaved child had such a tragic end in the original book. Whenever Qiu Zhenyang recalled those plots, he couldn’t help but want to send a blade to his author friend…

With Qiu Zhenyang’s assurance, Ling Dang finally opened her eyes and smiled. Although Ling Mu wanted to refute him, but seeing his sister’s happy expression, he could only bite his lips and say nothing.

After chatting for a while, Ling Dang reluctantly hung up.

The room fell silent, Ling Mu rubbed his brow, feeling very complicated.

The relationship between him and Qiu Zhenyang is really getting more and more complicated.

Before Ling Mu could clear up his chaotic mood, Qiu Zhenyang came over with the ointment. While Ling Mu was distracted, he took off his jacket, and was about to lift his shirt.

“What are you doing!”

Ling Mu, who came back to his senses, was startled like a small beast, grabbing the clothes with one hand and pushing him away with the other.

Qiu Zhenyang grabbed Ling Mu’s wrist very quickly, raised the ointment bottle, raised his eyebrows. “Ling Dang asked me to take good care of you, aren’t I applying medicine for you now?”

“I don’t want, take it back.” Ling Mu tried to fling his hand away and break free, but Qiu Zhenyang was too strong, and he couldn’t break free at all!

Qiu Zhenyang was also very tired of these continued refusals. He simply put down the ointment and directly hugged Ling Mu’s whole body, walking a few steps and threw him on the bed. The jacket he took off was used to pin his arms firmly above his head.

“F*ck Qiu Zhenyang, you f*cking put me down!” Ling Mu struggled and twisted, eyes spitting fire, as he tried to break free of the humiliating posture.

The friction between him and the bed made his shirt slip up a little, revealing his flexible waistline, attracting Qiu Zhenyang’s gaze.

“I say,” Qiu Zhenyang’s voice was hoarse and his eyes narrowed slightly. “Are you overestimating an alpha’s concentration?”

With just one sentence, all of Ling Mu’s movements stopped. Gasping for breath with red eyes, he clenched his teeth. There was a hint of panic accompanying the anger in his room as he smelled the powerful and dangerous pheromone in the room.

He knew that he couldn’t beat Qiu Zhenyang.

Qiu Zhenyang could see the emotion in his eyes clearly, but he was not ready to comfort him.

Deterrence is also a good thing to a certain extent. At least after understanding the gap between them, this guy should not resist him at every turn.

As expected, under his deterrence, Ling Mu no longer struggled.

Qiu Zhenyang hooked the corners of his mouth in satisfaction, just thinking about how to coax Ling Mu in bit, when his his firm buttocks got kicked without warning.

Qiu Zhenyang’s black face: “…”

Ling Mu laughed mockingly: “Ha!”

QZY: Mumu kicked me… (╥_╥)
