Gu Huan’s eyes fell on the other person’s hand holding his arm, his body tensed, and he let out a soft “hmm”.

Seeing that he admitted, Chu Xinglin said again,

“If you were looking for him just to contact me, then you don’t need it now.”

“Because I already understand your determination to get closer to me.” 

Gu Huan pursed his lips slightly. Contacting Chu Lin to get closer to the prince’s power was just an excuse for him.

He wanted to find Chu Lin…mainly because he wanted his pheromone.

However, how could he speak that as a reason?

Gu Huan’s slender and thick golden eyelashes moved, subconsciously avoiding the glare that fell on him, and said something,

“I have other things to find him.”

Chu Xinglin smiled in a low voice, staring at the handsome black-haired general, the corners of his mouth raised a little unconsciously.

“That’s because of what… because you like him?”

Unfortunately, the admiral denied it decisively, 

“No.” It wasn’t that kind of emotion, Gu Huan frowned, bit his lower lip with some hesitation, and denied it inexplicably.

“No. It’s not it.”

Why did the prince come up and ask him if he liked one of his subordinates? What is he thinking?

Gu Huan’s brain was turned into a mess by the pheromones that were so close to him, and he tried hard to maintain his sanity. 

The last time the prince was lying on the hospital bed, he didn’t know that this man’s pheromone was so attractive to him.

Just touching the body is already a little hot.

Gu Huan wanted him to take his hand away, but he was afraid that if he refused, the prince would doubt his position, so it was hard to bear.

“Tbe vbc’a ilxf tlw, yea tf ilxfr sbe nfgs wemt.”

“Gbc’a kbggs. Lf tjr jigfjvs ifoa.” 

Hearing that the prince mentioned that Chu Lin had left, Gu Huan was slightly startled, and immediately asked,

“Your Highness, where did he go?”

Chu Xinglin was a little annoyed.

It is hard to answer where he went, so how to avoid it? 

“He’s not a general like you who follows the regiment and has his own army. He can go wherever he wants to go. When he comes back, he may even have a crush on some omega. Then he’ll have a wife, kids and a warm bed, so you don’t have to worry about him coming back to find you.”

When Gu Huan heard this, his eyelashes trembled slightly.

He didn’t object to anything, and didn’t raise any doubts, as if he just acquiesced.

Chu Xinglin originally wanted to tell Gu Huan directly that Chu Lin was him after getting Gu Huan’s confession of liking him. But he didn’t expect that Gu Huan’s reason for looking for Chu Lin was completely different from what he thought. 

Then why did he seek him?

Just when Chu Xinglin’s probing eyes fell on Gu Huan, Gu Huan raised a pair of indifferent and stubborn golden eyes, looked directly at Chu Xinglin, and said calmly,

“Did he give you something?”

“I just want him to give you something. You misunderstood me. I really don’t like him.” 

Chu Xinglin let go of Gu Huan’s arm, and from his dimensional ring the golden crystal was taken out.

“Is that what you mean?”

Gu Huan breathed a sigh of relief.

“Yes, it’s enough.” 

Chu Xinglin looked at Gu Huan’s expression and always had a bad feeling in his heart, but he didn’t know what that feeling was .

Gu Huan lowered his head calmly.

“I don’t know if you believe me or not.”

“This thing. I picked it up from the wreckage of the Zerg that day when I rushed to the military training ground.” 

Chu Xinglin was attracted by these words, temporarily forgetting his bad intentions. Having a sudden premonition, he pondered,

“You mean.”

“This crystal has never been found in the remains of the Zerg before. At that time, Jin Chi could predict that the Zerg would appear on the military training ground. It may not only be because he discovered the Zerg and did not report it, but there are other possibilities.”

Gu Huan did not directly say that this golden crystal could control the Zerg. 

The first reason is that there wasn’t a group of Zerg with this crystal present at that time. At that instant, only one Zerg was present, and only one Zerg had this crystal in its body. This data was not reliable. He could not prove that the Zerg were controlled by people. The second reason is that he did not know how to use this gold crystal.

As a former traitor who cannot be trusted.

He could not assert the specific function of this crystal.

“Later, Duke Chu Fengyuan also asked me for the Zerg remains. I think he might just want this thing from the Zerg.” 

Chu Xinglin’s eyes flickered.

“The things you gave me are enough to prove your position.”

Gu Huan still hung his head and did not raise his head.

Because it was obligatory to wear a formal attire when coming to the imperial palace, he was wearing a military style robe today. His slim waist and legs were tied by the waist seal and his figure was firm and tough. His sense of strength and delicacy were perfectly combined. 

Even if he stood here like this, it made people want to take it for themselves.

Chu Xinglin felt itchy.

“Chu Lin told me that…”

“If I forgive your mistakes.” 

“You are willing to give everything to follow me.”

Gu Huan’s eyelashes trembled.

Unexpectedly, Chu Lin also told the prince about this matter.

Perhaps, the relationship between Chu Lin and the prince was closer than he imagined. 

Chu Lin told him so many things that were both true and false.

Could it be… His “great ambition” of wanting to be a substitute for the prince was actually not an ambition at all, but a fact?

That’s why the two of them were so alike.

“Yes, I said so, Your Highness.” 

Chu Xinglin took back the crystal in his hand, half-bit one finger of his white glove and removed it from his hand. Holding the glove in his other hand, he gently raised Gu Huan’s jaw with his finger in a uninterested way.

Holding the delicately curved jaw with his index finger, he gently stroked the lip that Gu Huan had bitten just now with his thumb. The movement of that finger was very slight, and his eyes flashed with heartache and helplessness.

This person hates the fact that an alpha likes him so much, how can he impress him? 

“To forgive you, it will take some time.”

“…”

Why do both the Imperial Uncle and the crown prince like to touch Alphas? Was it their royal family’s ancestral way of getting close to subordinates?

Wrapped in the opponent’s pheromone, Gu Huan’s eyes flashed with torment. 

Clenching his fingers tightly, he heard a sentence in his ear,

“Some stereotypes are really, really hard to change.”

“He said that I need to know you again and understand you in-depth.”

Gu Huan felt that this development had completely deviated from the track he expected. 

“What does Your Highness want?”

“I think your new home is quite well decorated.”
