C42 — Ji Canghai’s Sight Restoration

In the days that followed, all of the people in the Independence Army, including Liu Yilian, had noticed a change in the atmosphere between Ji Canghai and Xiao Yu.

 

 

At the very beginning, when Xiao Yu boarded the airship, although they were close, they were definitely not as inseparable as they were now. It was as if the two of them now had an invisible tacit understanding, and no one could intervene.

 

“Lieutenant Liu, I think we need to prepare the things we need for the wedding. If the chief wants to do something romantic one day, how can we as subordinates be unprepared?” Xue Qingping had done everything before joining the Independence Army; he had even been an wedding officiant and provided ambient support for the groom.

 

 

Liu Yilian listened attentively and asked him what she needed to prepare, and then recorded the things she wanted to prepare in advance with her light device, so she would go and purchase them when the spaceship returned to Changgeng Planet.

 

 

Xiao Yu was still unaware of everyone’s movements, and apart from taking care of Ji Canghai, he spent the rest of his time learning how to make mecha parts.

 

 

Under Ji Canghai’s guidance, his theoretical knowledge and practical ability grew by leaps and bounds, and he had also successfully made some small parts from first-class mecha materials that could be installed on the figurines.

 

This made Yang Yongning very happy; he held his repaired figurines and kissed them one by one; he even wanted to kiss Xiao Yu, but was blocked by Xiao Yu: “That isn’t necessary.”

 

 

“Brother Xiao, you are my own brother; in the future, as long as you have a need, I will oblige!” Yang Yongning patted his chest and promised.

 

Xiao Yu ruffled his hair in amusement and asked him about the First Military Academy of the Federation.

 

Yang Yongning was puzzled. “Brother Xiao, why are you asking about the First Military School of the Federation? If you want to go to a military school, our Changgeng Star’s First Military School is also very good.”

 

 

“I’m just curious; I heard that Ji Canghai came from the First Military School of the Federation, and he was once the man of the hour there; that’s why I want to find out more.” Xiao Yu believed that, with Yang Yongning’s character, he shouldn’t doubt his explanation.

 

 

Sure enough, Yang Yongning didn’t think much about it in the slightest. “In that case, in terms of strength, the First Military School of the Federation is indeed very strong, and almost all of the current generals of the Federation came out of the First Military School. Every year, September is their enrolment season; their age restriction is relatively relaxed; as long as one isn’t more than thirty years old and they meet the enrolment requirements, they can all enroll in the First Military School of the Federation.”

 

 

It could be heard that Xiao Yang indeed disliked the Federation, but he also had to admit the gold content of the Federation’s First Military School.

 

 

Xiao Yu continued to ask, “Then do you know what is tested in the entrance exam?”

 

 

Yang Yongning shrugged. “It’s nothing more than an examination of various subjects; the Star Network also has the examination questions of the Federation’s first military school every year; if you’re interested, you can go and take a look if you’re interested; the boss scored full marks in all the subjects in the examination, which set a record in the history of the Federation’s first military school.”

 

 

The matter of Ji Canghai setting an all-time record for the entrance examination was something Xiao Yu had known about as early as the time of the spiritual energy melding, but the short-lived spiritual energy melding didn’t reveal all the details.

 

 

If he really wanted to enter the Federation’s first military school to explore reality, perhaps looking for Ji Canghai to help him would be a good choice.

 

 

But Ji Canghai would definitely not agree to him going to the First Military School of the Federation.

 

 

Returning to Ji Canghai’s side, Xiao Yu was still thinking about how to set the questions, but Ji Canghai was like a roundworm in his stomach: “Discard the idea of going to the Federation First Military School while you still can; I don’t agree.”

 

 

Xiao Yu was still trying to play dumb. “Since I already know the relationship between the Federation and you, how could I go there?”

 

 

“Xiao Yu, I know exactly what you’re thinking. You don’t have to worry about Gu Xijiao; I’ll send someone to find out what he’s up to.”

 

 

Xiao Yu had obtained memories from Ji Canghai, and Ji Canghai had similarly obtained Xiao Yu’s memories. He knew the general plot direction of that book, and he also knew that the male lead of the book was Gu Xijiao, while he was a villain, or rather, a villain who was k*illed.

 

 

How could the always-proud Ji Canghai tolerate this? He wanted to meet this male protagonist, who was said to be able to k*ill him even more than Xiao Yu.

 

 

Xiao Yu was startled, then he remembered that he already knew the truth.

 

 

This was good; he had one more person to discuss with: ”What are you going to do? The secrets in Gu Xijiao’s body won’t be easily revealed; what if he doesn’t show any abnormalities?”

 

 

In fact, for Ji Canghai, the simplest and safest way was to ki*ll Gu Xijiao.

 

 

But in the end, he was the well-educated Ji family’s head, and the First Military Academy of the Federation had only taught him how to protect his family and his country but had never taught him that he could arbitrarily take away another person’s life for his own safety and security.

 

 

In the end, they weren’t sure how much of that book was true and how much was false. Gu Xijiao hadn’t done anything against Ji Canghai, and even though Xiao Yu thought that saving for a rainy day was the best solution, he was still unwilling to k*ill innocents by mistake: “I, Ji Canghai, don’t ki*ll innocent people.”

 

 

“You are rather virtuous.” Xiao Yu shook his head and his smile faded, which was considered him agreeing with Ji Canghai’s approach.

 

 

He just didn’t know which bast-ard wrote that book.

 

 

If this was called being unscrupulous and cold-blo*oded, then were there any normal people left in this world?

 

 

Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door.

 

 

Xiao Yu opened the door. “Lieutenant Liu?”

 

 

Liu Yilian nodded slightly. “I came to ask the two of you to come to the infirmary. Wu Mingzhi said that the chief’s gauze can be removed.”

 

 

So soon!

 

 

Xiao Yu was suddenly a little nervous. Obviously, Dr. Wu repeatedly assured him that the surgery was a success and Ji Canghai’s sight restoration was almost a foregone conclusion, but he still couldn’t help but feel his heart thumping.

 

 

Perhaps he wasn’t just nervous about whether Ji Canghai could regain his sight.

 

 

Xiao Yu led Ji Canghai to the infirmary and helped him sit down.

 

 

Wu Mingzhi skillfully untied the gauze wrapped around Ji Canghai’s eyes.

 

 

Xiao Yu pursed his lips and watched as Ji Canghai slowly opened his eyes. He wanted to reach out and wave his hand in front of him, but he didn’t want to offend him. He felt a bit lost for a moment.

 

 

Would he think that he wasn’t good-looking? Would he think he wasn’t to his liking?

 

 

These chaotic thoughts came and went, filling his brain, and even his palms broke out in a thin layer of sweat.

 

 

Ji Canghai was silent for a long time; he didn’t know whether he was adjusting to the light or his face.

 

 

“You ……” Xiao Yu was determined to break the silence.

 

 

The man, however, suddenly got up and embraced him. “Xiao Yu, I can see.” There was an obvious surprise in his voice.

 

 

Xiao Yu’s nervousness disappeared after he made such a fuss, and he playfully ruffle Ji Canghai’s hair, which had just grown a bit and was still a bit prickly. “Congratulations.”

 

 

“Xiao Yu, you’re so pretty.” Ji Canghai heartily said as he cupped Xiao Yu’s jaw.

 

 

There was only a fist’s distance between them, and Xiao Yu was surprised to find that Ji Canghai’s pupils were no longer dull gray. With his eyes regaining their luster and the scars at the corners of his eyes being removed by Wu Mingzhi, Ji Canghai’s face value had returned to its peak, and he was surprisingly three times more handsome than before.

 

 

Ji Canghai was the best-looking person he had ever seen, right?

 

 

Ji Canghai’s fingers gently stroked over Xiao Yu’s features, as if what was in front of him was a rare treasure that couldn’t be treated harshly.

 

 

Then, lovingly, he planted a kiss on his forehead.

 

 

“Finally, I can kiss you wherever I want.” Ji Canghai’s eyes contained a smile, and his tone was very satisfied, as if he had been waiting for this moment for a long, long time.
