CH 2

A bowl of congee that was said to be cooked with white rice was currently bubbling with strange black bubbles and was placed in front of him.

Ji Mian was silent for a moment.

Then he raised his eyes slightly.

Chu Shiye watched him quietly, his eyes as still as a mountain stone, and a trace of doubt.

He don’t want to eat that?

Ji Mian: “…”

Ji Mian took a deep breath, opened his mouth to say something politely and suddenly his eyes turned black.

Chu Shiye immediately reached out and caught his helplessly falling body.

A pair of clear and beautiful ink eyes have been closed, and the eyelashes are falling a shallow shadow. The youth’s cold face was pale to the point of being bloodless, like slender white porcelain, beautiful but fragile.

Chu Shiye didn’t even dare to force it, afraid that this person would really become shattered white porcelain.

He sat on the edge of the bed and stopped, gently holding Ji Mian’s spine, so that he lay smoothly on the bed, covered with a blanket.

Only after Ji Mian’s breath became shallow and he fell into a deep sleep did Chu Shiye wake up, walk over to the stove and taste the congee left in the pot.

It just feels right, like he always cooks, without a hitch.

However, the Omega he had saved was still too weak, so simply drinking some gruel probably wouldn’t do the trick.

Chu Shiye smoothly picked up the short knife on the table, soundlessly pushing the door out.

The cold smell of sterile water floated in the air, and between the four snow-white walls, there was a faint whisper hidden.

On the white hospital bed, the woman’s long and curly black hair fell to the side of the pillow, her eyebrows tightly closed, asleep in a past dream.

The real fact is that real people also dreamed of a normal afternoon two years ago.

But he had long since forgotten his mood at that time, only to remember that two years ago he had sat silently beside the hospital bed, gently holding his hand.

The woman seemed to feel something and slowly returned to holding his hand and tilted her head towards him.

She looked tired, but she smiled gently at Ji Mian.

She says, “. . .”

Ji Mian opened his eyes.

The dream dissipated, and he suddenly realized that he had long since forgotten what his mother had told him in the hospital bed that afternoon, two years ago.

However, at this moment, he felt that he was still holding a hand—not the cold and gentle hand of his mother in his dreams, but a man’s hand with sharp bones and small scars between his fingers.

Ji Mian quietly tilted her head and met a pair of serene, dark brown eyes.

“…”

He let go of his hand and said, “I’m sorry.”

“It’s fine,” Chu Shiye said. “I heard you call your mother.”

“…”

He’s a bit shy.

Ji Mian thought to himself.

However, in Chu Shiye’s eyes, the youth in front of him only flashed softly and was extremely calm.

Chu Shiye got up and walked over to the stove. Ji Mian silently listened to the movement there; his brain was dizzy from the pain, but the bottom of his eyes were clear.

The third system to the jump point before he was attacked by an unknown fleet, escaping on the way to force a random jump point.

This random jumping point is full of unstable interstellar turbulence. Once you enter, the survival rate is less than 1%.

The fleet pursued him no further as it was determined that he would surely die amidst the deadly turbulence.

He fought to the death and was already preparing to die without a body. Fortunately, the gods of fortune were on his side this time.

Although it wasn’t clear who exactly had attacked him, he was able to determine that it belonged to the Star Pirate’s Squad.

The group definitely weren’t regular Federation soldiers, but had some training, were hard hitters, and wielded weapons without hesitation.

The only people who would do it were the Star pirates, the executioners who roamed the main star systems.

Someone in the Ji family hired a star pirate just to kill him?

Not. Although there are some possibilities, the probability is not high.

He knew very well the character of his father, Ji Ting Yan, who was tough on the outside but weak on the inside. Even if that cowardly man wanted to get rid of him, he would first mentally weigh whether he dared to pick up such a double-edged knife.

Collusion with Star pirates is a capital unforgivable crime.

The situation in Star Capital was unstable, and the Ji family was already walking on thin ice. Once they were discovered to have colluded with the Star Pirates, all that awaited the Ji family was irreparable destruction.

Hence, if Ji Ting Yan really wanted to get rid of him, he would definitely do it himself to keep the handle out of the hands of outsiders.

As for the rest of the Ji family, they depended on Ji Ting Yan from beginning to end and did not have enough capital to hire such a fleet of Star pirates.

So does anyone else want his life?

Ji Mian’s fingertips were cold as if they were dipped in cold water, but he didn’t feel too cold.

He just found it interesting.

As soon as he stood above the S-Class, under the halo, the eyes focused on his body never lacked for malicious intent. Now that he had fallen to B-Class, there were still people who didn’t want to leave him alone.

Unfortunately, those guys fell behind.

He didn’t care who the killers were, but there was some score he would settle with those people.

After all, that was what he had left Capital Star for.

“Drugs.”

The slightly deep magnetic male voice fell, and Chu Shiye came over with a bowl of hot chocolate liquid with short and succinct words.

Ji Mian raised his eyes.

Chu Shiye could see that this Omega was just rethinking something not so pleasant.

When he was stuck in memories, there seemed to be a chill under his eyes. But now when he looked up, those inky eyes flowed lightly smiling at him.

“Thank you.”

Ji Mian slowly sat up and took the bowl from Chu Shiye’s hand.

This time the contents of the bowl were much more normal, at least it looked like an ordinary medicine bowl and nothing else.

Ji Mian turned off the heat and took a small sip.

Very bitter.

The bitter taste instantly paralyzes the tongue and even makes one lose the ability to speak.

Chu Shiye’s heart said that this herb is indeed very bitter. It grows in the wild when cats beat dogs. He also has difficulty swallowing when he is in a bad mood.

However, the medicine is very potent.

Chu Shiye stretched out his hand, and simply wrapped the ball in his palm.

He said: “Sugar.”

Ji Mian half a while before came up with the words, “Thank you, but I don’t like sugar.”

He didn’t stop, tilted his head, a bowl of bitter drinking extreme medicine.

It was bitter, so bitter that it was as if he had swallowed not medicine, but a bowl of needles.

Ji Mian slowed down for a while and turned to Chu Shiye: “Excuse me, do you have a StarNet account?”

Chu Shiye shook her head: “Many people here can’t connect to StarNet.”

Ji Mian: “So you use your own star network?”

Chu Shiye: “Hmm.”

Ji Mian pondered.

This planet was even farther and backward than he had imagined, but that too.

Although there was no StarNet account, so it was impossible to access StarNet to check Capital Star’s movements, and it was unclear how the Ji family would react to his “death”, but because of that, it was also difficult for those people on Star Capital to find it via StarNet.

Disappeared, searched in vain, and then confirmed dead.

This is good for him.

Moments later, Ji Mian gently pressed against his chest.

The burning pain in the chest cavity has decreased slightly, and the unpleasant tearing sensations on breathing have also decreased.

Even though it was only a slight change, but it made him feel a little better.

When Chu Shiye saw that Ji Mian wanted to lift a corner of the quilt, he immediately reminded: “Don’t rush to get up, you need to rest.”

Ji Mian didn’t try to be brave, but once again whispered his thanks.

After returning from death, his physical condition was still very bad. Just like now, his eyes were always dizzy and black when he spoke, and there was no part of his body that didn’t have a faint pain.

If he were to return to the Star Capital in his current state, against those people, there was only one way to die.

But this young man in front of him was different from those people, a very kind hearted person.

Although he didn’t say much, his eyes were clean and clear, like a lake that had not fallen into the dust.

Ji Mian: “Thank you for saving me. My name is Su Lan, and you?”

He couldn’t reveal his identity, even if the person in front of him had saved his life.

Perhaps no one here would recognize him, but just knowing his name could bring disaster upon themselves.

“Chu Shiye.”

As he spoke, Chu Shiye had returned from the side of the stove and was carrying a bowl.

“I’ve reheated it, now it’s the right temperature, you can eat it.”

Ji Mian lowered his eyes.

It was a bowl of Whispering Ancient God Congee.

Ji Mian: “…”

Ji Mian’s gaze misplaced the bowl and rested on Chu Shiye’s face: “You’re hurt?”

He was referring to the blood marks on Chu Shiye’s face.

Chu Shiye: “Small injury.” he said, very tenaciously passing the bowl of porridge forward.

Eat it?

Ji Mian: “Well… Can you come closer?”

Chu Shiye dazedly lowered his head.

Ji Mian raised his hand, slender fingers gently touched Chu Shiye’s face, his eyelashes drooped, silently closed his eyes.

The real fact is that you will be able to earn more than a few days to earn more than a few days.

Chu Shiye waited quietly and silently.

Nothing happened.

Ji Mian: “Sorry.”

He opened his eyes and sighed.

He was still too weak to even summon his own spirit body.

However, even if he wasn’t injured, the situation would still be the same.

Ji Mian stared at his fingertips silently; the last time he felt his spiritual body was two years ago.

For two whole years after that, he was unable to summon his spiritual body, just like an ordinary person whose spiritual power had not awakened.

Chu Shiye didn’t know the situation, and thought it was because Ji Mian had yet to recover from her serious injuries, and didn’t care.

“That’s fine. But, you have Healing Abilities?”

Ji Mian pondered for a moment and nodded: “Right, I am a Healing Ability.”

Holders of abilities that awaken spiritual power are divided into Attack, Spiritual, Support, and Healing.

In terms of combat power, the Attack Ability is the most powerful, and the high-ranking Attack Ability can burst into extraordinary combat power. But on the battlefield, the ceiling of the more all-rounded Spiritual Ability often exceeds the Attack Ability, which is the essence of turning the tide of battle.

Ji Mian is not a Healing Ability, he is a Support Ability with Healing Abilities, and was also known as the closest Support Ability to the Spiritual Ability.

However, he was not a spiritual system. Spiritual Abilities were rare and precious, and currently, the Federation had never had an S-Class Spiritual Ability.

The only person with S-Class spiritual abilities in the interstellar world was born decades ago in the Atlan Empire, which opposed the Federation, and, at birth, he was found to have S-Class spiritual powers.

Ji Mian had encountered that person’s spiritual ability, but the encounter was not pleasant, or—

The memory stopped here, and Ji Mian raised his eyes: “What about you? What are your ability?”

The first thing you need to do is get a good idea of what you’re doing.

Chu Siye brought a bowl of porridge in front of Ji Mian waving it around.

Ji Mian: “…”

Well, his savior really wanted him to drink this gruel.

Then, Ji Mian’s expression was calm and death-like as he took the bowl.

Chu Shiye handed him a spoon.

Ji Mian picked up a spoon and stirred it at the bottom of the bowl.

A sticky, viscous substance.

The pile of black and sticky stuff that couldn’t be named at the bottom of the bowl started to bubble black and weird again.

Ji Mian: “…”

Chu Shiye sat quietly at the side.

In the past, when he was sick, people living here would cook porridge for him. As long as he drank the porridge, he would recover quickly.

He hoped that the Omega he had picked up would also get well soon.

Under Chu Shiye’s silent gaze, Ji Mian closed his eyes and moved quickly to shove a spoonful of congee into his mouth.

A second later, Ji Mian opened his eyes and stared at Chu Shiye without blinking.

Chu Shiye: “So?”

Ji Mian was silent for a moment.

Ji Mian: “Pretty good.”

The words didn’t fall, he immediately fainted.

Chu Shiye: “???”
