Chapter 35 Success
He, or her?
The formation of an idea is difficult to change in a short period of time. When Alex once again showed his female identity in a subtle way, Chen An would still subconsciously regard him as a man, because as long as he thought that the little brother who had been with him day and night would be a girl, he would develop a strong sense of unreality.
Maybe he couldn't really love Alex, but he couldn't avoid Alex's unrestrained relationship, like a moth to a flame. This relationship was too heavy, so heavy that he couldn't refuse.
That's why he said that.
"Alex, is your injury okay?"
After the atmosphere fell into a brief silence, Chen An suddenly spoke softly.
"fine."
Alex whispered with a whisper.
"...Are you hungry?" Chen An asked again.
"Somewhat." Alex said with a hint of blush on his face.
"I... I brought my backpack. What do you want to eat? I'll take it for you, or do you want to drink some water first?" Chen An said calmly. For some reason, now facing Alex, he, who has had several emotional experiences and is no longer a novice in love, will be as young and nervous as a little boy in his first love, and his mood is like a deer bumping around, pounding.
What a shame!
While scolding himself for being cowardly, he took out some easy-to-digestible food from his backpack as if nothing had happened.
"I...I'll drink some water first and then eat." Alex said timidly.
"This, do you have a way to get up? Let's forget it..."
Chen An took out the kettle and asked without hesitation, but when he saw Alex lying on the ground, he immediately spoke, reached out and put his hand over her shoulder and slowly helped her up. At the same time, he handed the kettle to her mouth and fed it carefully.
Alex blushed suddenly. She tried to calm down and tried not to show her disobedient side, but no matter how she covered it up, she could not hide the slightly upturned sweet smile on the corner of her mouth.
While serving Alex to eat and drink, in order to avoid embarrassment in the atmosphere, Chen An deliberately shifted the topic to the contact with the other end of the signal just now. Except for concealing sensitive topics about his own origins, he said everything else he should have said.
"You mean you contacted the demons who abandoned this outpost ten thousand years ago, and even begged them to rescue us?" In fact, Chen An overestimated Alex's ability to understand and accept, and after listening to it for a long time, she reacted stutteringly.
"Yes, because now they are the only ones who can save us." Chen An carefully held Alex and slowly laid her on his legs, making her lie as comfortable as possible. "In fact, the negotiations at the beginning were very unsuccessful. If it weren't for my efforts, they wouldn't have any intention of talking about it."
"Why is this?" Alex almost turned red because of Chen An's gentle behavior, and asked subconsciously.
"It's very simple. Do you think demons will believe in humans? Just as humans will believe in demons?" Chen An sighed. "Trust is the key to getting along with people, let alone the demons who are the greatest enemy of gods and humans."
"What's the result?" Alex asked curiously.
"Now I am also waiting for their reply." Chen An said calmly. "However, I believe they will agree to rescue us in the end!"
"But... this also means we will betray the entire human world?" Alex said worriedly.
"Perhaps, things are not as simple as we imagined."
When he was revealing his biggest secret, the other party actually connected him with the so-called Geyaren. As for why they had this idea, Chen An guessed that these self-proclaimed gods should come from another world as him!
And what about the demons? Who are they?
Seeing Chen An in deep thought, Alex was so obedient that she didn't bother with him. In fact, she didn't care about betraying gods or humans. Now she only cares about being able to stay with Chen An forever, even if both of them are alive.
——Received a new signal and is being parsed...
At this time, the sudden sound of artificial intelligence interrupted Chen An's thoughts. He raised his head like a prisoner waiting for the verdict of life and death.
——Translation: Please tell you where you are now.
Success! Success!
Considering Alex, who was pillowing on his legs, after hearing the clear answer from the other party, Chen An suppressed his inner excitement and just clenched his fists tightly in front of his chest.
"1796! Do you still keep the specific coordinates of the outpost here?"
——Searching for data.
——Confirm that the coordinate data exists.
"1796, send the coordinate data here." Chen An took a deep breath and said.
——Received! Send.
"An! You look so happy."
Alex, who was keenly aware of Chen An's mood changes, couldn't help but speak.
"Alex! Do you know? I'm very happy now! Because, the other party finally agreed to rescue us!" Chen An said with mixed feelings.
"So, An and I have saved it?" Alex said with a smile.
"It's saved! We all save!" Chen An nodded vigorously and said. "Alex! I once told myself that no matter what, I will definitely save you, and I did it! I really did it!"
As he spoke, his tears couldn't help but stay.
Alex trembledly stretched out his hand to stroke Chen An's thin cheeks. She gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, feeling his hot heart in the tears. Even if she would die next moment, she would be satisfied.
——Received a new signal and is being parsed...
——Translation: Please wait patiently for our rescue personnel to arrive.
The sound of artificial intelligence inappropriately destroyed the warmth of the two. Chen An came back to his senses and wiped the corners of his eyes with some embarrassment.
"Alex, you're laughing!"
"No, no, it's better to say that I like you who are revealing your heart now." Alex smiled.
“…”
Chen An turned his face embarrassedly and deliberately turned the topic apart.
"Alex, let's pack up and prepare before the other party arrives."
Alex nodded, then reluctantly struggled to lie up from under Chen An's knees. Seeing this, Chen An quickly supported her and sat aside.
"1796, ask when the other party's rescue team will arrive."
Chen An seemed to have thought of something and quickly said to the artificial intelligence.
——Received! Replying.
——Receive new signals...
