I'm Not Human (BL)

CH 71

The expressions of the Zerg leaving the room were tenser than ever. Although they were expressionless as usual, the tenseness of their faces seemed to reveal a low mood. Their king didn't let them enter the room and refused to let them take care of him, asking them to leave. The king didn't allow them to look at him.

Gu Huai's indifferent attitude made the Zerg feel a type of emotion they were unfamiliar with. It was just like when they learned Gu Huai was born on an abandoned planet. Their hearts were heavy. It felt like there was a heavy load pressing down on their hearts, making them feel sad.

After leaving the room, they didn't know where to go. The Zerg outside the room had a blank mind for a few seconds until the chief of staff said, "First, go and prepare the evening meal for His Majesty."

The chief of staff said so and the top executives of Tuser had their senses return. Yes, the king's nutritional meal wasn't ready tonight. The king wasn't feeling well and they shouldn't placed more thought onto the food.

The king should be speaking to them indifferently because of his physical discomfort. Then they would prepare nutritional food to make the king's body better and the king would smile at them like before.

Alves, who had also been persuaded to rest, returned to the mansion after an hour, clearly aiming at Gu Huai's room. In the room, Gu Huai was still standing by the window. Although he was looking out the window, his eyes didn't seem to reflect the scene outside.

The temperature of the golden vertical pupils were extremely cold. These eyes were originally bright and warm like the sun, giving people a feeling of excessive beauty. Now these eyes were as calm as a pool of water. The colour was clearly bright but there was also a cold feeling.

Alves noticed that Gu Huai's eyes were golden but he still followed his initial idea.

"Flower." Alves held the flower very lightly and extended it toward Gu Huai.

Since discovering that the flower placed on the window sill of Gu Huai's room was close to withering, Alves was persuaded to leave the room. He went to Noam Star in the next galaxy to pick a new flower.

It was a move Alves had done many times before and could be regarded as the default agreement between him and Gu Huai. Generally speaking, Alves would bring back an Eleanor flower except when Gu Huai made a special request.

"You said you wanted yellow and I saw this only on Noam Star." Alves looked at Gu Huai, waiting for Gu Huai to take the flower.

The flower in Alves' hand was small and looked a bit like a butterfly. It was called a Philae flower. It was just that in the seconds that Alves held out the flower, Gu Huai moved his gaze to the flower but didn't show any intention of taking it.

Gu Huai glanced at it before looking away. Alves could feel Gu Huai's indifferent attitude to him and the silver-grey tail behind him subconsciously lowered. Alves maintained his posture of holding out the flower for a while. Once he finally confirmed that Gu Huai didn't want the flower he sent, Alves lowered it.

Alves looked at the glass flower vase on the window sill and walked forward without a sound. Learning from Gu Huai's previous actions, Alves took the withered old flower out of this glass, cleaning the cup and changed the water. Then he inserted the newly picked flower into the glass.

After completing this series of actions, Alves returned to watching Gu Huai again. It was unknown why Gu Huai was suddenly indifferent to him so at this time, Alves chose to stretch out his tail toward Gu Huai. Alves wanted to circle Gu Huai with his tail.

"Don't touch me." Gu Huai frowned and opened his mouth when he perceived the intention of the silver-grey tail.

These words were enough to stop him. Gu Huai made his refusal extremely clear. His voice and tone were enough to stop Alves. Once this was said, Gu Huai could see the silver-grey tail stop but at the same time, he could also see Alves purse his mouth.
