Chapter 105
After dinner, the twins held Ye Zhizhou back and dragged him to stretch his muscles. The sore Ye Zhizhou pitifully cried out in pain.
"You didn't have the habit of exercising daily before, right? That's not good. You'll have to practice more in the future, or else you definitely won't make it through the school's quarterly field training." Chigita mumbled as he bit a piece of beef jerky. He patted Ye Zhizhou on the shoulder. "Join me and Anout on our morning runs. I guarantee you that your constitution will become A-rank in a year!"
Ye Zhizhou looked at him with a gaze that seemed to say that he had nothing left to live for. "I'm not even a mecha major…"
"But, mecha manufacturing also needs physical strength ah! Do you think that mechas are just plastic models that could directly be made by hand? You need to use machines to work with them, and most likely, you'll be on the machine for several hours. You definitely can't do that without any physical strength." Without caring about his image, Chigita slumped down onto the sofa as he took a piece of fruit pastry. "Besides, even if you just specialize in designing them, you also have to test out the components on your own. Mecha parts are all metal that weighs several jin, the heavier ones weighing more than ten jin. You can't use them if you don't have any strength."
Ye Zhizhou was already despairing. Sure enough, he and mechas don't mix well.
“Don’t listen to him.” Anuot pulled his brother up from sinking in the sofa and forced him to sit properly, before handing Ye Zhizhou a water bottle. "In the first year, you can only learn basic knowledge, so you can use this year's time to lay a good foundation for your body. Moreover, in the mecha manufacturering's design path, they have miniaturized and special versions of the components, so you don't have to necessarily use the regular-sized ones."
"How could a miniaturized or special version compare to the feeling of a regular-sized one…" Chigita grunted. He slyly smiled and beckoned towards Ye Zhizhou. "Call me brother and I'll make a customized training plan for you. How about it? It's a good deal right?"
Ye Zhizhou didn't hesitate to roll his eyes at him as he stood up and waved to them as he returned to his room. He asked Tongtian for a low-grade Xi Sui pill. How hard was it to raise his constitution to A-rank? All he needed to do was take a Xi Sui pill. Besides, for this mecha manufacturing major, he's definitely going to fail. He'll fail it until the end of time…
Two minutes later, he ran to the bathroom. 20 minutes later, he received a video call request with the caller ID being the student union.
Why would they call at this time…? He wiped his face, tidied himself up, and then went back to the room to accept the call.
The video call light screen popped up and a handsome silver-haired, black-eyed man appeared on the screen, followed by a deep and pleasant-sounding voice. "Why did it take so long?"
Big brother, who are you?
Restaining his desire to curse, he replied honestly, "The circumstances were a bit inconvenient earlier… May I ask the reason why the student union is looking for me?"
The handsome silver-haired man sized him up, his gaze stopping on Ye Zhizhou's untucked shirt spilling out of his belt. "Did the instructor not teach you that you must maintain a ?"
Ye Zhizhou silently tucked his shirt in.
The handsome silver-haired man withdrew his gaze from Ye Zhizhou's body with satisfaction, and then directly looked at him, but his tone was very administrative and indifferent. "Bring your information to the student union's registration room on the second floor. The list of make-up entrance examinees for the generic research major needs to be reconfirmed. The dormitory administrator has already introduced you, so you can directly come here after reporting your student ID."
The light screen disappeared and the call ended. Ye Zhizhou recovered from the pair of black eyes that looked like it wanted to eat him up. He rubbed his arms, was it just an illusion? Why did he feel that the gaze of the handsome brother from the student union was very piercing as if he wanted to devour him?
The student union's building location was a little far from the dormitory. It took half an hour to walk there. When he reached his destination, Ye Zhizhou couldn't feel his own legs anymore. An entire day of training, half an hour of stretching, and squatting on the toilet for 20 minutes… It was just too much.
At night, the military academy was quiet and cold. Besides the instructor on patrol, there wasn't a single student walking around. He looked at the dark drill grounds behind him, then at the half-open door of the Student Union Building, before confirming the call history in the communicator. He shrunk into himself. Why did this feel like a scene from a horror movie? Furthermore, he couldn't see any signs of other examinees…
"Fellow student, what are you standing here for?"
The sudden clear and melodious voice startled him; Ye Zhizhou quickly turned around to spot a refined-looking brown-haired and blue-eyed handsome man walking out from behind a flower bush, with a kind smile on his elegant face. "So it's actually a freshman. Why did you come to the student union?"
Ye Zhizhou stealthily took a deep breath while pressing down his scared and wildly beating heart, gesturing towards the folder in his hands. He said, "Senior, I'm here to re-register my information for the genetic research major's make-up entry exam. Uh, did I come to the wrong place? This is the Student Union Building right? How come I don't see any of the other examinees…?"
The refined-looking handsome man heard Ye Zhizhou’s words and then his eyes twinkled before carefully sizing him up. His smile became increasingly amiable. “So it was to register. You didn’t come to the wrong place. It’s only natural that you didn’t see other examinees since only six candidates are taking the make-up entrance exam for the genetic research major this year. Come with me, I just happen to also be going to the second floor’s registration room. I’ll take you with me.”
Ye Zhizhou let out a sigh of relief, quickly thanked him and then followed him into the building.
"Which major are you in, Freshman? Why do you want to get into the genetic research major?" The refined-looking handsome man was amiable and talkative, chatting with Ye Zhizhou as he led the way. He had a natural and gentle attitude, which made people completely let down their guard against him. "Listening to your accent, you must not be from the capital star. How are you adapting to the capital's climate?"
“I’m from the mecha manufacturing department, and I'm just interested in genetic research." Ye Zhizhou responded, being reciprocal to the man's chatting as his mind gradually relaxed. "The capital star's climate is very similar to that of my hometown's, there is nothing to adapt to here. Thank you Senior for your concern."
The refined-looking handsome man's attitude became even more amiable. "You don't have to be so polite, in the future, we'll all be a family… from the same school. Of course, we need to look after each other."
Ye Zhizhou didn’t notice the pause in his words, smiled and nodded. He didn’t say thank you or other polite words again.
When they came to the front of the registration room's door, Ye Zhizhou raised his hand to knock, but the refined-looking handsome man stopped him. He directly grabbed the door handle and turned it, saying in a loud voice, "Brother, I've come to see you. How many days can you stay at school this time?"
“Three days.” The cold-sounding reply actually came from behind them. Ye Zhizhou turned around and saw the handsome silver-haired man, who had talked with him before, standing behind him with a cold face while holding a small box in his hand. His eyes exuded chilliness. "Chris, why did you come here?"
"Came to see you." The refined-looking handsome man, named Chris, turned around and opened his arms with a wide smile on his face. "No emotional long time no see hug, Brother?"
Chris?
With his eyes unconsciously widening, Ye Zhizhou looked at one person and then at the other. Chris was the Empire's second prince and was also part of the protagonist's harem. And the man who he called brother… Ye Zhizhou once again looked at the cold face of the silver-haired, black-eyed handsome man, and let his gaze stop on the other's impeccable handsome face, before internally screeching as his mind fell apart. The empire only had two princes, so the only one who could be called "brother" by Chris was the eldest prince, Clay! But, but… The two were obviously blood brothers so why were their appearances so different?! One was coldly handsome while the other was gentle and refined. One had brown hair and blue eyes, while the other had silver hair and black eyes… One had broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs but the other one was refined, elegant and fresh… How could they be born from the same mother?!
Clay ignored his younger brother's expectant eyes and turned his head to meet Ye Zhizhou's widened eyes. He raised his hand and gently poked. "Single eyelids."
The finger that poked his eyelid was very gentle. He reflexively blinked but became shocked shortly after. Just now, when the finger touched him, he seemed to have felt a trace of the familiar and aggressive spiritual power.
“Wait!” He quickly grabbed the other's withdrawing hand and pressed it back onto his face.
The place on his face covered by the palm was very warm, but that familiar spiritual power didn't appear. He doubtfully frowned and wondered… Was it just an illusion?
Clay stood still and allowed Ye Zhizhou to do as he pleased as if being grabbed by an unfamiliar student was a normal thing. Chris silently put his arms down, opened his communicator, and sent a message to the imperial consort: Elder Brother has fallen in love with a beta at first sight at school. Prepare for the wedding.
The imperial consort, who was applying a face mask, was so startled that they almost smashed the aromatherapy candle in their hands.
How could it not be there… Ye Zhizhou moved the other's hand to his forehead again, gently rubbing against it, but he still didn't feel that familiar spiritual power.
… So, was this person his lover or not?
"Your temperature is normal. You're not ill." Clay abruptly and lightly spoke up before taking his hand back. He stepped into the registration room, his attitude becoming distant and indifferent. He didn't have his lover's typical clingy yet domineering appearance at all.
With this kind of appearance, it didn't seem like his lover… Ye Zhizhou followed him in with a puzzled expression, but didn't give up and let his spiritual power out to float around the room; however, he found that the other didn't have any particular response to it.
Was it really not him? The procedures were quickly handled, and Ye Zhizhou frustratedly withdrew his spiritual power with dim eyes… Yeah, how could it be? It was not like he found his lover that quickly in every single world… Maybe that spiritual power that he had felt just now was his mistake… But, he clearly didn't detect the other when he had approached… Wait a minute! He didn't detect the other person when he approached?
His footsteps stopped and he turned around, just happening to meet the other's gaze.
Clay pressed down the emotions in his gaze and resumed his aloof appearance. He asked with seemingly no reluctance at all, "Is there anything else?"
Fuck! Sure enough, it was his lover, this bastard! He clearly saw that gaze filled with possessiveness!
"There is something!" He gasped in return. He quickly walked towards Chris, who was off to the side drinking tea, bent over, and kissed him on the cheek before saying in a loud voice, "Senior, you're too handsome! I fell in love with you at first sight! Let's date!"
Pftt——
Chris directly spat his tea out.
“Pansy!” The pen that Clay was holding snapped in two and his voice was full of suppressed anger. "Students aren't allowed to date!"
Ye Zhizhou turned around to stare at him. "I'm not dating, I just have a crush!"
"Crushes aren't allowed either!"
"Why not?!"
Clay got up and walked over to him. He roughly wiped Ye Zhizhou's lips and clenched his teeth with anger. "You can only be mine! If I say no, then you're not allowed!"
He had heard this sentence so often his ears might as well have calluses! Ye Zhizhou became angry and opened his mouth to fiercely bite Clay's finger. Then, he stretched his arms out towards his face and pulled him down, pressing their foreheads together while grinding his teeth. "Unexpectedly not even awakening your spiritual power, you're really…" It's already so miserable for Clay to deny himself, does he want to tear his soul apart in the next life?!
A tremendous and deep spiritual power quickly popped out to surround Clay and unhesitatingly burrowed into his brain through the ears. The spiritual power rushed towards the place where Clay's spiritual power sea was surging.
Clay moved and obediently closed his eyes while embracing Ye Zhizhou.
The teacup in Chris' hand fell to the ground with a thud. What was he seeing? His brother, the serious and powerful prince Clay, w-was actually being violated by a freshman's spiritual power?! No? His brother didn't awaken his spiritual power, the other person must be strong… That's not right either! Not awakening spiritual power didn't mean that he didn't have a spiritual power sea…
So should he call the police or not?!
