<h4>Chapter 60</h4>


    <b>Face-pping the Interster General and His Ger (4)</b>


    Editor: ghost


    The feeling of being trapped between the wall and Mu Xinhua was not a good one. At least, Zhou Xu did not like it. Currently, he could only continue to appear weak, but he had a bottom line to maintain. He extended his arm to push Mu Xinhua away and replied, “I am a Di-er, so I reject your proposal, thank you.”


    Zhou Xu was prepared to leave after saying his part, but before he could take two steps, his hand was pulled.


    “You think that I would let you off because you’re a Di-er?” The corner of Mu Xinhua’s mouth hooked up as he continued, “Even if you are a monster, I would still set my sights on you.”


    Zhou Xu turned and pushed away Mu Xinhua’s hand. He replied, “General, this is a public area. Please mind your image.”


    Mu Xinhua let go. He continued to smile and stare at Zhou Xu–to the point that Zhou Xu got annoyed by his staring.


    “General, do you have any orders?”


    Mu Xinhua finally stood straight and did not mess around. He sternly said, “Follow me to my office. Give me a feasibility report of all the improvements you mentioned just now.”


    “Yes, General.”


    Zhou Xu spent an entire two weeks finishing the feasibility report; he needed to carefully analyze all the details.


    In the midst of this, Zhou Xu again confirmed that his memory had some missing pieces.


    Zhou Xu realised that he did have all his memories rted to knowledge, but every time he thought about an important point in time, his memory would skip over and directly move on. In addition, his memories had a very important person. It was like he was in every memory, but Zhou Xu was unable to recall his appearance no matter what.


    However, Zhou Xu did not force himself; he had already transmigrated to more than a hundred worlds. He was not afraid of continuing to experience a few more worlds. Since he had found a lead, solving the problem was only a matter of time.


    Zhou Xu finished and arranged the sixty plus pages of the feasibility report before finally knocking on Mu Xinhua’s office door.


    “Reporting.”


    “Come in.”


    Saluting, Zhou Xu handed his report over to Mu Xinhua. Mu Xinhua started to earnestly read the report in front of the three highest ranking generals.


    The small office was dead silent.


    Zhou Xu stood ramrod straight to the side while the three elders had a calm appearance; they waited, neither anxious nor impatient.


    Mu Xinhua took an hour to finish reading the long report. When he encountered a problem, he would pause and ponder over it. The three generals unexpectedly did not rush him. Zhou Xu found this inconceivable, but this showed just how important Mu Xinhua was in this world.


    Mu Xinhua handed the report over to the three generals and said, “I’ve summarized the gist of it to you already. This is the detailed report. I’ve finished looking through it and there is only one word I can use to describe it: brilliant. Now I will hand over the report and leave the office to you. I will wait for your decision.”


    Mu Xinhua stood up, intending to leave. After he walked two steps, he turned and spoke to Zhou Xu, “Whose logistics soldier are you? I am already leaving, are you not following?”


    Left with no choice, Zhou Xu could only follow Mu Xinhua out of the office.


    Following behind Mu Xinhua, Zhou Xu’s eyes were fixed on his back. Wearing his military uniform, Mu Xinhua’s wless stature was highlighted. Broad shoulders, a trim waist, coupled with his tall and straight bearing. Even the short hair under his service cap appeared handsome.


    Perhaps because he felt Zhou Xu’s gaze, Mu Xinhua abruptly turned his head. The corner of his mouth hooked up as he asked, “What’s the matter?”


    A handsome, but arrogant face. He was the empire’s youngest general and the world’s war god. He currently faced Zhou Xu and asked him what the matter was.


    “Nothing. I just wanted to know your opinions on my report, General.”


    “I’ve said it already. There was only one word to describe it: brilliant.”


    “What I want to ask is if it can be implemented.”


    “I can’t guarantee that. The three generals will have their own considerations.”


    Zhou Xu nodded and did not speak anymore.


    Actually, Zhou Xu had not intended to ask this question; in Mu Xinhua’s office, he had already known Mu Xinhua’s intentions. Only, when Mu Xinhua suddenly turned his head and charmingly questioned him , Zhou Xu had unexpectedly nked for a few seconds as his heart started beating faster. Hence, he could onlye up with a question to cover up his awkwardness and embarrassment.


    Zhou Xu was still a bit skinny and weak. After all, he was a Di-er and for Di-ers to reach his height was already miraculous. However, inparison to the sea of men in the army, he looked to be too frail.


    His skin was snow white and seemed to be unable to tan. His cherry red lips always seemed to be glistening and his long, narrow eyes were beautiful and bewitching when he slightly narrowed them.


    Currently, the resplendent sunlight made Zhou Xu somewhat unable to open his eyes. Mu Xinhua took a step to face him, blocking the sunlight.


    Zhou Xu narrowed his eyes and lifted his head to look at Mu Xinhua. He asked, “General?”


    In the next second, Zhou Xu’s lips were stolen.


    Instinctively, Zhou Xu wanted to lift his leg to knee him, but it was as if Mu Xinhua had long predicted that Zhou Xu was going to react so fiercely. Hence before Zhou Xu’s leg could lift up, he pulled in Zhou Xu by his waist and used the other hand to keep Zhou Xu bnced. He directly pressed Zhou Xu’s upper body down and used his leg to support Zhou Xu.


    The two kissed. At first, Zhou Xu wanted to reject him, but during the kiss he realised, no, he was certain that this Mu Xinhua was his lover; the kiss was too familiar. In all five worlds so far, the first kiss in each world was always the same.


    After Zhou Xu started to return the kiss, Mu Xinhua was overjoyed in his heart. He started to kiss more fiercely, like a caged lion that had just tasted freedom for the first time. He madly plundered Zhou Xu’s mouth.


    Once the kiss ended, Mu Xinhua helped Zhou Xu up; he was half leaning on his leg. Mu Xinhua extended his index finger to rub the moisture on Zhou Xu’s lips. His gaze was no longer yful and he looked at Zhou Xu earnestly as he said, “Zhou Xu, marry me.”


    This time, Zhou Xu gentlyughed and said, “Sure.”


    What was there to hesitate about? Since this person was his lover, wasn’t it better to enjoy life while he could instead of needlessly dragging it out with longing and torment?


    It was as if Mu Xinhua’s body was fixed into ce by a spell; he could not believe Zhou Xu had really said yes to him. When he managed to react, he was unable to contain the mad joy in his heart and directly hugged Zhou Xu. He was not satisfied even after the hug and threw Zhou Xu up in the air a few times.


    After Zhou Xu was put down, heughed and asked, “Are you done being crazy?”


    The corner of Mu Xinhua’s mouth hooked up as he answered, “Not enough, I want to continue, but someone may see.”


    “Only now do you remember that you might be seen by others? Unexpected.”


    “I really forgot just now.”


    Zhou Xu and Mu Xinhua looked at each other andughed.


    In the end, Zhou Xu’s entire proposal went through. Zhou Xu had an exceptional promotion to headquarters. Within the army, this was something unheard of. Moreover, after he entered the headquarters, he was promoted to lieutenantmander. His main task was to refine his report and quickly realise the n.


    The technology department originally wanted to snatch Zhou Xu. His suggestions to improve the basic level mecha was too good. After the technology department finished reading his report, not one person did not admire him. However, the headquarters had much more authority and power than them, hence their request to bring him over was unceremoniously shot down.


    From then on, Zhou Xu became a legend in the army. Which soldier could be directly promoted into headquarters after merely being a logistics soldier? Which soldier could be promoted to lieutenantmander within just a few months of entering the army? And which soldier could bring out an entire report on improvements after only observing the troops’ mecha training? There was pretty much only Zhou Xu.


    The entire n, from testing to implementation in the entire empire, as well as forming a system, took about two years in total. In these two years, Zhou Xu’s rank was raised again, from lieutenantmander to colonel.


    Actually, it was a kind of miracle. Normally, a promotion required at least three years, unless there was a major meritorious service. Zhou Xu relied on exactly that to be continuously promoted.


    The Zhou Xu who was promoted to colonel was growing busier, and a certain general was getting more and more vexed. Ever since Zhou Xu was transferred to headquarters, he almost never saw him in these two years. Even if he did, it never exceeded half an hour; Zhou Xu would be called, his direction would be needed somewhere.


    The general got more and more vexed. The implementation of Zhou Xu’s new n was definitely not a one or two day job, but he never thought that it would cost two years. The policy had finally been stabilized, but Zhou Xu was unexpectedly promoted again. In the future, if he wanted to see Zhou Xu, Mu Xinhua felt that it was only going to be more difficult.


    He regretted for half a day; he should have locked Zhou Xu to his side since the start, not letting him leave. But when he saw Zhou Xu brimming with confidence in his military uniform, the general threw his thinking behind him. He liked this Zhou Xu who was outstanding and confident.


    “Were you busy today?” Zhou Xu asked his general who was sitting with his back facing the light.


    “I’m more rxed as a general than you as a colonel.”


    Currently, the two were on their day off, hence they agreed to go out and eat a meal together. They were in their civilian clothes.


    Mu Xinhua was casually dressed in ck. Zhou Xu was also in casual wear, except that he was wearing white. Unaware onlookers would think that the two were wearing couples’ outfits.


    It was not only Mu Xinhua who missed Zhou Xu; Zhou Xu was the same. After all, seeing each other merely once a month while dating was a bit cruel and both of them were youths full of vigour–they were bound to have some physical needs. However, at the critical moments, the other party was always not avable, hence both of them found this kind of life torturous.


    Mu Xinhua thought for a while. Since he already had firm belief in Zhou Xu, he should directly report it to the government; they would be able to receive a house. Zhou Xu thought this way too, hence the two happened to say the same thing.


    There were too many men in this world, so there were many cases of men being together. However, whether it was two men or a man with a woman, Ger or Di-er, anyone could get married as long as they made the decision to. Only, the empire did not protect marriages between two men. The empire only protected one kind of marriage — a marriage between a man and a Ger.


    As the two were talking, a voice sounded. This voice made Zhou Xu turn cold. “Xiao Xu, are you Xiao Xu?”


    Zhou Xu raised his head, following the voice. Hehe, he and the protagonist truly had an ill-fated rtionship. Who would the speaker be, if not Ding Zhaolin?
