Chapter 13: Can you restrain yourself?

Translated by Addis of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

Editor: Karai

A silence of social death permeated the shore.

The “dumb” and “stupid fish” were secretly slandering, even if they were not malicious and were purely cute, it was still embarrassing to be caught…

This time, Ruan Yu was not the only one with hot steam coming out of his head.

[Help! Don’t think about it anymore!]

[But doesn’t it seem more like you’re begging someone not to say you’re stupid? Stop your brain!]

Thinking was the most uncontrollable thing in the world. The more you don’t let yourself think, the more you think.

Fortunately, a team of guards who came to clear the way diluted the awkward atmosphere of the scene.

Not far away, a pontoon boat was hovering quietly.

A pair of sharp and heavy military boots stepped onto the gangway, it was Admiral Gu who rarely appeared in public. The black and inky uniform was meticulously wrapped around a body with flat shoulders and a strong, lean waistline, and a snowy, dazzling shoulder insignia, with a calm, cold temperament, and a large, neatly folded towel on his arm – a large towel that didn’t fit with his outfit would have been very strange, but Gu Xiuhan’s look was so natural that no one thought it was wrong.

“Brother Xiuhan!” Ruan Yu’s eyes were bright, soft cheek flesh sunken with two pear swirls, subconsciously hands picked at the shore a little. But this side of the guardrail was too high to leap up, Ruan Yu looked around and found that he had to swim to the viewing walkway a dozen meters away to get to shore.

This area was shallow, plus the fish tail was longer than the human lower limbs, so Ruan Yu erect tail fins could easily touch the white sand of the sea floor.

The “touching sensation” from the tail gave the inexperienced brain the illusion of being on shore, and the fish tail automatically turned back into a human leg, and Ruan Yu, who was preoccupied with finding his brother, did not notice the change in form and used the force of the fish tail to swing, resulting in a stumble on his feet and the upper body plunging into the water with a thud…

“Blub…”

When did it change…

A series of stunned small bubbles surfaced.

The people on the shore saw the fish fall in the water for the first time, all stunned, wanted to laugh but did not dare to laugh openly, the shore sounded a snort of muffled laughter.

[How does that action just look like falling? I can’t laugh, think about the sadness… Pfft.]

[What principle? How did it happen?]

[Although I am not allowed to think that he is a small stupid fish, oooh.]

It’s just gotten worse. How can humans be so…

Ruan Yu wanted to go into the trench and never go out again, but could not go out, so he turned his legs back into a fish tail and forced himself to dive in the shallow water to the walkway.

Gu Xiuhan had been waiting there, and as soon as Ruan Yu emerged from the water, he used a large bath towel to wrap the little mermaid, whose cheeks were red and pink, and picked him up and walked towards the pontoon boat.

As a result of the shame, Ruan Yu did not want to see people, and buried his face into the nape of Gu Xiuhan’s neck. The tip of his moist nose rubbed the collar button of his uniform left and right, as if he wanted to open the button so as to hide his face in Gu Xiuhan’s uniform, and his mouth and nose exhaled a tangled hot air and sweet fragrance, gently sweeping over Gu Xiuhan’s angular Adam’s apple.

Gu Xiuhan often abstained from sex, even if Ruan Yu did it unintentionally, he could not withstand the slightest teasing. With a few wisps of breath, soft hair next to the chin, and a weak, almost inaudible nasal voice of aggravation, the fire in his belly already burned him with heat and pain. Fortunately, the top of the uniform was long enough and the pants were loose enough not to lose their shape. Gu Xiuhan’s jaw was tense, and there was nothing he could do in public. He endured until he got to the pontoon boat and placed the restless bath towel fish roll on the seat, and then he breathed a sigh of relief without moving.

The night before, Ruan Yu set the morning call time to 9:30. In the past, Gu Xiuhan would remind Ruan Yu to get up on time, but today only a lone housekeeping robot started to play soft music every ten minutes from 9:30. The robot finally plucked Ruan Yu up with its mechanical arm like a sticky cake from the bottom of a pot. After finishing the morning call, it urged Ruan Yu to go wash up, and displayed a six hundred second countdown on his stomach to create pressure.

When Qin Yue came to the door, Ruan Yu had just come out of the bathroom, his lips were red from the mint-scented oral cleanser, his eyelashes dripping with water, and his voice was still muffled from sleepiness, “Good morning, Major General Qin.”

[So well behaved…]

[I envy Admiral Gu.]

Qin Yue was in a trance, smiled politely and gently, “Good morning, I have to trouble you today.”

Saying that, he glanced around and asked in an expectant tone that he didn’t even realize, “Is Admiral Gu not here?”

Before Ruan Yu could say anything, Gu Xiuhan had quietly come out from behind the entrance wall like a ghost, his dark pupils turned towards Qin Yue, and his voice was so cold that it could thwart ice chips, “What?”

Qin Yexu was busy saluting, looking forward and said, “Nothing much.”

Ruan Yu was struggling with a lock of hair that was still stubbornly sticking up after dipping it in water, and said absentmindedly, “It’s better to lie down in a relaxed position when doing mental treatment…”

He meant that there were a few unused guest rooms for Qin Yue to find a bed, but Qin Yue, who had a full sense of danger, interrupted eagerly, “I can just lie on the sofa.”

–If Gu Xiuhan’s eyes were a little more gloomy, he might have chosen to lie on the floor directly.

After the words, Qin Yue took off his military boots and carefully lay flat on the sofa.

Ruan Yu pulled over a small single settee and sat next to Qin Yue.

“Alright.” Ruan Yu cleared his throat and guided in a decent manner, “Now relax your body, every muscle is relaxed…”

Gu Xiuhan was watching the report on a light screen, and the corners of his lips slowly raised a tiny margin.

The guiding steps actually made little sense, the little Ruan Yu at the time of infancy often cured him by babbling a children’s song while fiddling with his toys.

Now… It was about trying to look great in front of outsiders.

Seeing that Qin Yue immediately did whatever he said, as tame as a loyal dog, Ruan Yu proudly hooked his toes in place of cocking his tail. Then, he began to sing and carry out the formal treatment.

The singing voice was soft and gentle, delicate and warm, like a smoky breeze cropping the tender willow, blowing through the scorched and damaged areas of the mental body. The healing sound waves rippled through the mental body in a shimmering, pearly white water-like ripple.

According to Ruan Yu’s healing experience in the research institute, the damaged area of the active mental body should have recovered calmness under such soothing, so that the symptoms would be much lessened in the next attack, but this time, Qin Yue’s mental body reacted contrary to Ruan Yu’s experience – not only did the damaged area move rhythmically, but also gradually. The damaged area not only became more violent, but also gradually resonated with the sound wave ripples…

“… Huh?” Ruan Yu paused his singing and moved closer to Qin Yue, trying to see more clearly.

Qin Yue didn’t know that he suddenly came closer because of this, his expression stiffened, his heartbeat was indisputably out of balance, and his handsome and rigid face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“What’s going on, why is it more active…” Ruan Yu muttered.

The small bulging lip beads, which added fleshiness to the thin pink lips, tugged at one time when speaking, producing a subtle shape change, compelling people to move their eyes.

Qin Yue was still able to control the thinking activity, but as soon as Ruan Yu came close, a certain string abruptly broke, and the curtain in his brain suddenly flew.

[I remember that he is the little prince of the mermaid tribe…]

[Do tears really turn into pearls?]

[They split their legs in order to go ashore to find a mate, can not remember where to read, he … Still too young to find a mate.]

[Is it too close? There is no smell of seawater on the body, only… Well, do all mermaids look this good?]

[His body is so sweet.]

[This lip, if you bite it… Wouldn’t it be sweet?]

Qin Yue’s eyes were a little straight.

Ruan Yu was slightly stunned, sluggishly mulling over these few odd heart sounds.

Bite, bite the lips?

Why?

[Wait, why would I think about such a thing?]

[S-rank shouldn’t be easy to hear… But don’t think about it.]

Qin Yue tried to curb his thoughts.

It wasn’t really a deliberate abstinence, but his needs in this area had always been light, and his energy seemed to be devoted to his work.

Because the genetic level was generally higher than that of the civilians, there were few men and women with outstanding appearances in the military department, but Qin Yue had never thought of anyone in such a dirty way, and this was the first time.

[1, 2, 3…]

In order not to think nonsense, Qin Yue simply closed his eyes and counted silently.

The heart sound turned into boring numbers.

Ruan Yu knitted his brows in bewilderment, thinking that this would be revealed, after all, human beings sometimes just have some haphazard thoughts that they may not be able to explain…

But at that moment, a scene consisting of brain signals suddenly broke into his mind.

Not quite clear, and only for a short moment, the image was Ruan Yu himself.

He tilted his face, his mouth slightly apart, revealing a line of snow-white teeth, the two lips pursed and pressed by tension, rubbing against each other, grazing a fruit-ripened red…

Ruan Yu instinctively knew that this scene came from Qin Yue.

This was presented in the form of a visual image…

Qin Yue’s fantasy.

Unlike the heart sound, the internal image came from a deeper level of consciousness that even counting sheep could not conceal.

To Ruan Yu, this level of mind reading was quite difficult and rare, perhaps because he had just resonated with Qin Yue’s mental body during the treatment, and this was only briefly read for a moment.

“Uh…” Ruan Yu clutched his fingers in embarrassment, originally wanting to play dumb and ignore it, but the questioning words were already hanging on the tip of his tongue and popped out accidentally, “Why do you keep thinking of biting my mouth?”

Pop.

At the table, Gu Xiuhan was so shocked that he broke a light screen with his finger.

Fortunately, the material of the light screen was light and thin, and the sound when it shattered was not loud enough to attract Ruan Yu’s attention.

“No, I…” Qin Yue froze, his thin lips half-open in embarrassment, he first subconsciously retorted, then came back to his senses, knowing that Ruan Yu had not wronged him, it was pointless to deny, so the words choked in his throat, “Uh…”

“If you can, please restrain yourself a little.” Ruan Yu’s eyebrows knitted slightly, trying to maintain a polite tone, whispering a request, “I’m a little uncomfortable.”

“Right, sorry!” Qin Yue was so bashful that he didn’t know where to put his hands and feet, and almost jumped up to give Ruan Yu a bow, “I won’t, I’m sorry… I’m really sorry!”

The housekeeping robot followed the sound to clean up the light screen fragments on the floor.

And Gu Xiuhan had long resumed his usual cold and solemn look, he didn’t look at the official documents anymore, only pulled a chair next to Ruan Yu and sat down, his stern eyes like falcons quietly stared at Qin Yue.
