Lin Xu, who was behind the door, was wearing a bathrobe and bare feet. His loose black hair seemed to have grown a little longer and fell on the collar, dripping wet, and the water droplets slid into the neckline along the line of the collarbone and chest.

He glanced at the two Alphas in front of the door, and his voice was a bit lower than usual when he spoke: "Hello, Marshal Chu, this is..."

The sweet aroma came along with the hot air of the water mist. Heinrich took a breath and immediately held his breath, but it was of little use. The sweet aroma had already entered the brain and was entangled in the descent.

Zhou Pingbo, who was also Alpha, didn't smell anything.

"...Did something happen just now?"

Probably because he just came out of the bathroom, a blush appeared on Lin Xu's originally pale skin, with drops of water on his fine eyelashes, like a white rose with red silk after being hit by wind and rain.

The bright colors stimulated Heinrich's five senses, so that he forgot to answer Lin Xu's question and stared straight at him.

"Oh," Lin Xu's lips reddened by the heat opened and closed, "I accidentally broke the bathtub and hit the ground."

He was awakened by the knock on the door, one of them swept his tail out without paying attention, and directly slapped off the bottom half of the bathtub. The whole bathroom seemed to be flooded with water. Come out and open the door.

"Report the damage to Ruth, and she sent the robot to repair it," Heinrich said.

Zhou Pingbo, who was left out in the cold, came in to introduce himself. Lin Xu looked at him and missed Heinrich's rolling Adam's apple, clenched palms, and sweat on his forehead.

"Mr. Lin, my name is Zhou Pingbo, I work at the Imperial Academy." Zhou Pingbo reached out to Lin Xu, "I met Mr. Lin before."

Lin Xu slowly stretched out his hand and shook it back. There was no water stain on his hand, but Zhou Pingbo felt a strange cold and slippery touch. Lin Xu and his hand were separated as soon as they touched it, and Zhou Pingbo was a little uncomfortable with the touch just now. Sure.

"Hello, Professor Zhou, have we met?"

The author has something to say:

Give everyone a glimpse of the fish tail that will be useful in the future.

And bless Marshal Chu who is occasionally attacked by fragrance.

Chapter 018 The cold water only made him more clearly aware of the blood on his face

Lin Xu knew Zhou Pingbo.

Academician of Imperial Academy, head of Zerg weapon development project, honorary professor of Capital Star University, honorary president of Deep Blue Military Academy.

But this is only Zhou Pingbo's achievements in the subtle and meticulous professional field, and his fame in the field is not enough to attract the attention of hundreds of billions of people in the empire. People know him more because social media often report him as an actual case of anti-class discrimination.

Zhou Pingbo came from an ordinary background. Although he is an Alpha gender, he has only an E-grade rating, which is not as good as the weak Beta and Omega. However, he has achieved the position he is today with his own struggles. Many anti-discrimination people use him to tell the public that he is born with a grade. You can't decide a person's future.

But Zhou Pingbo himself does not like to participate in such discussions.

Lin Xu only caught a glimpse of him on the screen where the news was broadcast on the side of the road, just like he had only seen Heinrich in the propaganda pictorial before.

The person who was loved by the social version was stunned for a moment when he heard Lin Xu's question, and immediately replied: "When you gave a research report on ancient earth language poetry at Capital Star University, I was also present, and I was one of the jury. You were in Taiwan. You may not have noticed me in the last report, that's okay, we met face to face today."

Zhou Pingbo looked like a scholar, with a medium stature, and his words were humorous. Lin Xu didn't hate such people, but he always felt that there was nothing to say in the two-person room other than politeness.

There was often nothing to say between him and Heinrich, but time flowed quietly like a stream. Even if they were only silent, there was a strange and magical atmosphere that surging and rolling over, hooking Lin Xu's ups and downs.

"It's my honor." Lin Xu replied formulaically, "Does Professor Zhou have anything to do with me?"

Zhou Pingbo smiled: "You are willing to join the delegation, I should have come to visit earlier, but I heard that you were recovering, so I didn't dare to take the liberty, so I came a few days late. Besides... We have to talk about the assassins. The matter, Marshal Chu told me that he gave you an electronic document, but many things cannot be explained with data, so you have to sit down and have a good chat, you, me, Marshal Chu, and your student Ryan."

Lin Xu's face darkened, but he did not refuse.

Zhou Pingbo saw Lin Xu's room full of water stains along the crack of the door, and said kindly, "Let's go to the conference room to talk."

"Okay, please wait for me to change clothes."

He closed the door temporarily, Zhou Pingbo stepped aside and waited, but Heinrich turned around and left, Zhou Pingbo wanted to hold him, "Where are you going?"

Heinrich turned sideways to avoid, his breathing was unsteady: "Go back and change clothes."

As he said that, he walked into the bedroom opposite him, confusing Zhou Pingbo. He didn't know what to replace Heinrich's brand-new uniform.

The first thing Heinrich did when he walked into the room was to wash his face with cold water, rubbing his eyes and cheeks vigorously, hoping to wake himself up.

The cold water only made him feel the blood rushing up on his face more clearly.

He was much calmer than when he smelled the sweetness on Lin Xu's body a few times before. He didn't lose his rational control, and he didn't enter the susceptible period on the spot. He successfully controlled himself to walk back to the room and changed out of his sweat-soaked shirt. After a simple cleaning, he changed into another military uniform and walked to the conference room that Zhou Pingbo chose.

Lin Xu and the others were already sitting in the conference room. Ryan hadn't seen him for a long time. He was chattering about the magical Victoria next to Lin Xu. Some despair, the brain was numb from the noise.

However, when Heinrich arrived, Ryan stopped, his eyes that were as cold as inorganic material swept over him under the shadow of the brim of the military cap, and he got up and saluted like a conditioned reflex, full of energy: "Hello, Marshal Chu!"

Heinrich nodded and let him sit down. He dragged a chair between Lin Xu and Zhou Pingbo. Zhou Pingbo had to move aside due to the crowded space.
