“Are you going to sleep?”
When she looked at him, Huo Jun also stared at her intently, his eyes burning and passionate. His voice was a little hoarse, perhaps because he hadn’t spoken for a long time.
Su Yi hugged the quilt and leaned against the head of the bed, her long hair spread out softly.
“I’m going to sleep, but I’m not sleepy yet. How is the situation over there?”
“Not good, but not too bad either.” Huo Jun said.
The team he led had been on several missions. Fortunately, no one died, but the war damage was still not small. Several team members were seriously injured and were still lying in the medical cabin.
He had a few wounds on his body, which were not serious. He treated them briefly and refused the suggestion to enter the medical cabin for treatment because today was the only day of this month when he could contact the outside world. If he missed it, he would have to wait until next month.
Su Yi also noticed the sporadic blood stains on his clothes. She reached out and gently touched the image in front of him.
The image was virtual, and even if Su Yi passed through it, Huo Jun would not feel it. But at the moment, he clearly felt that the place touched by Su Yi seemed to feel her body temperature.
He also reached out, held Su Yi’s image’s hand, holding it in his palm as he often did before, and squeezed it carefully.
“I miss you very much.”
After a long silence, he spoke.
Su Yi looked up at him, and instead of saying ‘I am too’, she asked, “Do you need me to come to find you?”
Huo Jun glared slightly.
He knew that Su Yi was very powerful, but he never thought it would be to this extent.
You have to know that he is now on the battlefield, which is countless light years away from the Capital Star.
In the beginning, their fleet took several days to arrive after several jumps, and Su Yi’s simple words of finding him meant that she needed to be alone in the universe, crossing a distance of several light years and risking encountering Zerg or interstellar pirates at any time, to reach this desolate and dangerous battlefield.
This is no longer within the capabilities of human beings. At least in Huo Jun’s opinion, even the most powerful person cannot do this.
Perhaps others will regard this as a big joke, but Huo Jun never doubts Su Yi. He blindly believes in everything about her.
He himself has only realized this now.
If someone said a few months ago that he would regard another person as his belief, Huo Jun would not even bother to express his disdain.
Now, his whole body and mind are trying to prove this point.
He opened his mouth, not knowing whether to say yes or no for a moment.
After a long time, he smiled helplessly and said, “Aren’t you afraid of scaring me silly?”
Su Yi blinked and asked him, “Are you silly?”
“Not yet.” Huo Jun said with a curved mouth.
“But if you told me that you had a tail, I might really become silly.”
“You like ones with tails?” Su Yi propped up her chin with her hand, frowned slightly, and acted a bit distressed.
“I don’t have a tail, but if you really like it, it’s okay to have one. Do you want a full set, such as cat ears or rabbit ears?”
Huo Jun couldn’t help but imagine the scene in his mind, and then he felt a little itchy in his nose and quickly put aside a certain idea, lest he didn’t fall down because of the injury on the battlefield, but lost too much blood because of her words, which would be too embarrassing.
Su Yi added with a smile, “You can also choose a fox one.”
Huo Jun touched his nose and said, “We’ll take our time with this later…”
Both of them knew that Su Yi’s strength was abnormal, but since she didn’t say anything, he never asked about it and didn’t even show his surprise too obviously.
Su Yi felt that, regardless of other things, at least in terms of psychological endurance, probably no one could compare to her dog.
“Are you really not curious?” Su Yi asked him.
Huo Jun paused and said truthfully, “Very curious.”
Not to mention that he had been chasing power since he was a few years old, even if he was an ordinary person, he would be surprised to know that someone had such ability.
But Huo Jun chose not to ask.
In addition to trust, he was actually afraid deep in his heart that if he got to the bottom of it, Su Yi would find him too annoying and boring and then turn away.
Compared to the possibility of losing her, nothing else mattered, not even the great power he had always sought.
Su Yi could probably guess what he was thinking.
She was satisfied and comforted him, “In my opinion, there is nothing that cannot be said. When the time is right, I will tell you everything.”
Huo Jun nodded.
Then he looked at her, she looked at him, and for a moment, they fell into strange silence.
After a few seconds, Huo Jun coughed lightly, and his fingers unconsciously gestured in the air.
“You really have…”
“Hmm?” Su Yi tilted her head and waited for him to finish.
He uttered two words vaguely, and probably no one except himself could hear what they were.
“What is it?” Su Yi asked patiently.
Huo Jun coughed twice again artificially and then said seriously, “You really have a tail?”
Su Yi glanced at him and said, “You have a tail. Your whole family has a tail.”

The author has something to say:
The dog said aggrievedly: I already had it.

I will really appreciate it. ♥️♥️♥️

But he really has a tail. A literal tail of his body in their real world. And he has had it even before he’s born. 😅😅😅😅
