Chapter 6 : Similar to Courtship

“Why did you agree just now?” Lu Jinbei's eyes swept over sharply.
“The Federation has abandoned you traitors.
There is no benefit to you.
Why? Just to disgust me?”

Ling Huan became energetic as soon as he heard the word 'disgust'.
It turned out that the Hatred Value was high at the initial point because marriages disgusted him!

Ling Huan raised his eyebrows and asked tentatively, “You feel uncomfortable just because of marriage? What if I say I like you?”2

Lu Jinbei lowered his eyes down lightly, “Shut up.”

An undercover agent sent by the Federation to the Empire keep on saying that he likes him, simply stupid.

Ling Huan smacked his lips with regret.
Although Lu Jinbei's face turn even more ugly, but System did not indicated that his Hatred Value had rise, so he had to find another way.

“You will regret your choice.”

Lu Jinbei ignored the scent of citrus that has gradually entangled with him, and stared at Ling Huan, his voice was cold and indifferent, “If you don’t play tricks and promised me just now, you may still live normally, but now, since you don't know what's good or bad, insisted on fighting me, then you will end up badly in two years.”

The man paused and announced his ending directly.

“After the two-year of compulsory marriage ends, you will be branded as a prisoner and exiled to the abandon planet to fend for yourself.”

Ling Huan, who had already known the plot in advance, shrugged calmly.
He slapped the man's hand away and sorted out the tattered clothes a little bit.
“Then let's talk about it in two years.”

He wondered how he should made Lu Jinbei hated him, squinted his eyes and pondered for a moment.
He reciprocatingly¹ tugged at Lu Jinbei's necktie, and dexterously found the position of the slipknot with his fingertips.
With a light twitch, he loosely untied the dark blue tie of the other party, sniffed it against his face, and found that the one he liked before was indeed the scent of Lu Jinbei.

【This way you seem to be teasing him, will he be angry? I think Host is better off scolding him.
】

Ling Huan did not approved with 009's act of cursing people.

“If I scolded him, he wouldn't be angry.
He would just thought that I was ridiculous, it's useless.
You can see that he dressed so neatly and meticulously.
He didn't take off his gloves from beginning to end.
At first glance, he has obsession with cleanliness and messed up his clothes will definitely make him furious.”

Ling Huan coughed slightly when he meet Lu Jinbei's heavy gaze, quickly returned the tie to the man, and licked his teeth.

“General Lu, I have a question, what does your pheromone taste like? Does it have a name? Can you…”

Can he told him?

Since everyone can smell it, it shouldn't be a secret.

But what Ling Huan didn't know was, because each Alpha of the Military Department wearing a Pheromone Blocker ring, so their pheromone will not be exposed in the air.

The air around everyone was very clean.

Unmarried Alpha and Omega who was living alone in daily life also wear a Blocker ring, because these two types of people had unstable pheromones and will subconsciously inducing others.
Only A and O who had bonded and become mates can to not wear Blocker rings.

And, in the Empire, bluntly asked the other party what it taste like…

It was similar to courtship.

However, most of these questions were arise from the unsatisfied single A.

Lu Jinbei looked at the boy's red eyes and quivering eyelashes.
His eyes were full of expectation and fondness. Carried the kind of moist and softness, that the atmosphere had became scorching hot with the sweetness and sour of citrus flavor.

This was the first time that someone asked him like that.

Lu Jinbei squeezed the palm of his hand and suppressed the inexplicable emotion in his heart.

The Federation has spent a lot of time and energy to cultivate elite undercover agents, they actually thought that they can seduce him?

Didn't they a bit too confident.
