Chapter 56 The Fifty-sixth Little Tail

As soon as the sun rose, Ye Xiao got up, grabbed a sword and prepared to go out for morning exercise. When he reached the door, his steps paused again.

Going back to the bed, looking at Ling Chen who was still sleeping soundly because of the medicine he took, Ye Xiao took four deep breaths in a row, then slowly leaned over and kissed Ling Chen on the lips, and even licked him twice with the tip of his tongue. After that, he opened the door and went out quickly with red ears, as if he was stepping on the wind.

He rushed to the corner of the corridor in one breath, and Ye Xiao braked suddenly, narrowly avoiding hitting Bai Hengyun.

Bai Hengyun had just pulled an all-nighter and was yawning with an empty coffee cup in hand. Seeing that it was Ye Xiao, she smiled and said, "You're up so early?"

Ye Xiao stood still and said seriously, "Hmm, I have to go practice." He thought for a moment and added, "Captain is still sleeping."

Bai Hengyun saw his embarrassment and smiled gently, "Well, then I'll go see Ling Chen." As she spoke, she asked Ye Xiao to help her hold the coffee cup. With her free hands, she carefully straightened Ye Xiao's clothes and said, "You're the same as Ling Chen. Every time you get dressed, your collar is crooked and you can never wear them neatly."

After she was done, she withdrew her hands and nodded with satisfaction, "Our Ye Xiao is so good-looking."

Ye Xiao's ears turned red and he whispered, "Thank you."

Bai Hengyun took back the coffee cup and smiled, "Okay, good luck with your morning practice!"

After Bai Hengyun left, Ye Xiao stood there for a while longer, touching his collar in a daze - is this... the feeling of having a mother?

Ling Chen was indeed in excellent physical condition, and his wound healed very quickly. After only three days, the wound had stopped bleeding. In view of the shortage of medical resources, he was very conscious and lived next door to Jiang Cancan with Ye Xiao.

However, he seemed very busy and would not return to his room until the second half of the night every day.

When he received the message from Ling Chen, Ye Xiao was playing chess with Jiang Cancan and Jian Lan. He had just learned how to play chess, and lost miserably. A row of white strips were pasted on his face, leaving only his eyes exposed.

Seeing the message from Ling Chen in the communicator, Ye Xiao tore off the white strips on his face and stood up. "Captain called me, I'll go first."

Jiang Cancan smiled and waved, "Okay, let's continue the white strip journey tomorrow!"

Ye Xiao has been familiar with the temporary base in the past few days. The base covers a large area, surrounded by mountains and forests, and has a hidden location. It used to be a test site under the Engineering Academy. After Bai Hengyun and her team came, they renovated it and it can barely be used.

Following the message sent by Ling Chen, Ye Xiao walked all the way to the top floor, opened the door to the rooftop, closed it, and when he looked up again, he was stunned.

On the rooftop, someone used thin straw ropes to string together palm-sized straw cages and hung them above his head. Each exquisite straw cage contained a firefly, shining brightly.

It was like falling stars.

At this moment, the stars seemed to fall into Ye Xiao's eyes. The night wind blew from an unknown direction, and the starlight swayed.

Ling Chen wore a black shirt with the top three buttons undone, just revealing the fine lines of his chest muscles. His hair was obviously groomed, and his forehead was exposed, which made his facial features look profound and his eye sockets deeper. On his wrist, he also wore a watch that was more expensive than his car.
