Ch90 - He must have fallen into the river of love (2/2)

This world was too peaceful. There was no infighting, and as long as his bodyguards watched him closely, those from the research laboratory would not rush into action and could only hide in the dark. Xue Ling did not plan to make a move on them yet, so he could temporarily rest for a while and ease his mood so that he would not be too tired.

After half a month of leisure time, they had finally arrived at the time when Lou Cen should wake up. Xue Ling had grasped the opportunity to visit on that day, because Madame Lou would definitely not let him see her son after he woke up.

Because he had told the Duchess about his visit in advance, Xue Ling did not attend school that day. Instead, he went straight to the hospital. The day before, he had also told Yan Qingjun about it, acting pathetic and saying that he had taken a fancy to a beautiful man, but the other party’s mother was too powerful, bullying him until he could only give up the engagement. In return, his hair had been completely mussed up by Yan Qingjun.

He smiled and expressed, “Little Wen is so cute. How could anyone possibly dislike you?

Xue Ling pouted as he spoke. “Who knows? Maybe she wanted to find someone like you, Junjun…”

All the fur on the system’s body stood on end thanks to its host’s tone. Although he was simply acting spoiled and being cute, it made the system break out in goosebumps all over. After knowing its host’s cruel nature, the system could not make itself believe it at all. It could only pray that Yan Qingjun would not see Xue Ling’s true nature in his entire life, because it would not a good idea to frighten this gentle merman.

Lou Cen had fallen into a coma due to a secret mission from the military, so he was staying in a military hospital, and people had to pass through a lot of checkpoints to get in. However, because Xue Ling had a special identity and was a merman, the check was not so severe. Madame Lou had a smile on her face as usual when she saw Xue Ling, and she was kinder than she had been when suggesting that they break off the engagement. Perhaps it was because he now no longer had anything to do with Lou Cen that Madame Lou’s hostility was no longer so strong.

Xue Ling rolled his eyes behind her back, thinking that Madame Lou was too naive.

Lou Cen’s ward was quite easy to enter. Xue Ling sat in his floating merfolk chair and went inside. He could see with a glance that although Lou Cen was lying there breathing smoothly, his spiritual and physical strength was rapidly soaring.

As Xue Ling had previously seen on the merfolk network, Lou Cen was very attractive. After all, he was the protagonist gong that had been picked out of thousands and chosen out of ten thousand options to match with Yan Qingjun, and would absolutely appear amazing. Although he was dressed in hospital clothing and had been in a coma for over half a month, his physique had already been upgraded by a level, and he would wake up as soon as his spiritual strength finished rising.

“When will he wake up?” Xue Ling quietly asked Madame Lou, his eyes revealing a little concern that even she was unable to resent him for.

“I also don’t know.” Although she firmly believed that her son was alright, Madame Lou was also distressed that he had been lying here for half a month. She waved her hand and said, “The doctor said it all depends on him.”

Xue Ling softly let out an ‘oh’ sound, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he thought in his heart, ‘he’s waking up now’.

In the next second, Lou Cen’s spiritual power directly broke through the SS level, and advanced to the SSS level. The power that had previously been suppressed broke through, and all the machines in the ward began to wail. Xue Ling opened his mouth and asked, “Aunt, Lieutenant General Lou is waking up!”

Madame Lou was overwhelmed by surprise. Because of the unexpected situation in the ward, all the doctors had arrived, and Madame Lou retreated to the back of the room, looking at the bed with a joyful expression on her face.

Xue Ling asked the system, “Now that he’s waking up, is he aware of his surroundings?”

“Yes, he is.” The system wagged its snow-white tail and exaggeratedly praised its host. “Is it because you two have been in love for such a long time that the ability to sense the other party is maxed out? Host’s guess was correct this time – that’s him.”

Xue Ling’s lips curved in satisfaction. Despite all the doctors around them, his gaze met with a pair of dark eyes.

Those eyes belonged to Lou Cen, who had just woken up. His gaze was still filed with sharp killing intent, and the doctors were rather wary of getting close to him. After all, he was already a SSS-class powerhouse. It was also because he was SSS-class that Lou Cen subconsciously looked towards the only person in the room who could threaten his spiritual strength the second he woke up.

Then, he fell into a pair of golden eyes.

It was a pair of very good-looking eyes. Slightly uptilted, they seemed to draw people in, and the tear moles at the corner of his eyes made gave him the appearance of an alluring demon. But that pair of eyes on that slightly rounded, still somewhat immature face that still had traces of baby fat, made people suddenly feel that it was much more pure.

It was rather strange, because the first thought that appeared in Lou Cen’s head was not ‘who is he’, nor was it ‘why is this person here’, but rather one word – cute.

This version of him was so cute.

That kind of warm and lively feeling that came from his heart allowed his tense spirit to relax. He looked at the person who was meeting his gaze, slowly closed his eyes, and fell back into a deep sleep.

Before he fell asleep, he saw the teenager smile at him.

It was a very beautiful, very good looking smile. The corners of his lips curved upwards slightly, and two lovely dimples appeared on his cheeks, making his eyes sparkle and shine. It was a smile that was very much to his liking.

He must have fallen into the river of love.

This was the thought that flashed through Lieutenant General Lou’s mind before he fell asleep.
