Rong Qiu's face was completely red with excitement.

He stared blankly at the screen. The man on the screen was still the same, but he had changed to a new military uniform. This military green color was more advanced. Rong Qiu recognized it as the uniform of the second-level tactical officer.

Ah Ye is already a second-level tactical officer!

Rong Qiu was happy for Qin Muye, but before he spoke, Qin Muye's first sentence was to ask him to return to Star A to recover from his injuries.

"Why?"

Qin Muye's attitude was very tough. He raised his head and informed Zong Rongqiu: "Because the mecha was not properly inspected before driving the mecha, the mecha lacked key parts and disintegrated and exploded. This is the military region's punishment for your mistake."

Rong Qiu's eyes widened, ignoring the pain in his chest: "Impossible, I will check every time I drive the mecha!"

Qin Muye: "The investigation result of the military region is like this, black and white, you have to trust the official."

Rong Qiu's lip line was slightly tensed, and the lips were biting white: "But I don't."

"Be obedient, go back to Star A."

"..."

Qin Muye's affairs in the military region were extremely busy during this time, so it was rare to find time to inform the beta in person. Seeing that Rong Qiu didn't do as he did, the man became impatient: "What's the use of an injured beta staying in the military area, even if you don't leave, the military area's documents have already come down, and in three days, a starship will force you to send you back, go. It's up to you not to go."

In an instant, Rong Qiu seemed to hear the sound of a broken string in his mind, he pressed the slightly hot phone and palm tighter, but his mind went blank.

- What's the use of beta.

- Forced to send you back.

Ah Ye's words were the same as those of his adoptive parents who sent him back to the orphanage when he was a child, and how similar to the words of the alpha officer who beat him with a baton before. But he never thought that such words would be heard from the mouth of his beloved.

So, does Aye think so too?

Do you think his beta is useless...

Rong Qiu felt that half of his chest was sore and numb. In the man's irritable voice, Rong Qiu stiffly started the topic, "Apart from this...Aye has nothing else to say to me?"

For example, today is his birthday.

Did he say "Happy Birthday"?

The man on the other side of the phone paused for a few minutes, and this silence made the already slow time stretch even longer.

"No."

After a few breaths, the man insisted on Shen Yan: "Don't be willful, go back to Star A."

Rong Qiu clenched the phone tightly.

In a place where the man can't see, the strong loss makes his body tremble under the bedding. Even if he is used to it, he will still feel sad, and his heart will be cold.

beta lowered his head, his eyes darkened.

"Okay, I'll go."

Chapter 21

-Okay, I'll go back.

Just this sentence, both sides fell into a strange silence.

Qin Muye pursed his slightly dry lips.

He wanted to say something to comfort beta, but before he could say it, the big smiling face that burst out on the screen blocked his organized language back.

This is not beta's usual shy smile.

Rong Qiu smiled widely, and even his eyes were curled up, his long and curled eyelashes covered Ming Zhan's pupils, and even his eight teeth, which were not easily exposed in the past, were neatly exposed.

It's an overly standard, sweet smile.

But for a moment, Qin Muye felt strange and uneasy.

"Aye is busy, I'll hang up first."

After speaking, Rong Qiu really hung up the video.

This is the first time beta has voluntarily hung up on him, and it's neat and tidy, as if to draw a line with him.

Qin Muye clenched his phone tightly in an instant.

It's not right, it's really not right.

If Rong Qiu in the past received his call, his excitement would be beyond words.

But now he hangs up the phone abruptly...

Is it because beta doesn't want to talk because he's not feeling well?

Broken ribs, that really hurts.

Beta may even be painful to breathe now.

The man's deep eyebrows and eyes were filled with unspeakable darkness and twists and turns, and those beautiful and cold eyes were stained with a little chill, but before Qin Muye could think about it, Su Ran next to him leaned in brightly when he hung up the phone. : "Is Rong Qiu going back to Star A?"

Qin Muye took back the phone and frowned, "Why do you care so much about him?"

Su Ran: ...

Qin Muye didn't know that part of the reason for the disintegration of Rong Qiu's mecha was because of Su Ran, and he didn't even know that Su Ran had visited Rong Qiu. At the moment, he thought that Su Ran still wanted to trouble Rong Qiu, Qin Muye looked at Su Ran with a warning: "Don't bully him."

Su Ran only felt wronged: "I won't bully him!"

But when he thought of the shit he had done in the past, he couldn't argue for a reason.

He didn't even dare to tell Ah Ye that there was a reason for Rong Qiu's disintegration.

Su Ran felt guilty and squeaked, and made an excuse to slip out.

Just before leaving, he stopped outside the door to test: "That beta will only be Ah Ye's bed partner, right?"

Qin Muye took a deep look at Su Ran, his eyes seemed to be questioning what nonsense Su Ran was talking about.

Su Ran shrank his neck: "Understood."

After Su Ran left, Qin Muye's irritability became more substantial, and the man looked down at the investigation report in his hand.

It clearly stated that the mecha driven by Rong Qiu was missing a part, and this important part was finally found in the toolbox of the mecha storage compartment. Apart from those who specialize in repairing mechas, only Rong Qiu can touch this toolbox.

That's why military investigators decided that Rong Qiu had not done a good job of checking before departure.
