As soon as Yan Qi left, the news was sent to Ji Li.

"Wow, young master, you have no idea how fiercely Xiaochang played poker today! He simply turned the tide!"

"In the first few rounds, we were tricked by Pan Peter and Si Rui. We agreed to a one-on-one fight, but they broke their promise! By the end, I thought there was no hope, but I didn't expect Brother Xiaochang to rise up so strongly and actually fight three of us alone!"

"Good fellow, he even hit me! Hehe, but it's better than the other two guys winning! You don't know how wonderful Peter Pan's expression was at that time. I want to laugh when I think about it now!"

Ji Li sat on the sofa, looking at the message flashing in the dialog box with deep eyes, and couldn't help but smile.

Someone has a strong ability to adapt, so it seems his worries are unnecessary.

That guy can live well wherever he goes.

Thinking of this, his slender fingers moved, exiting the current dialog box and clicking into the top chat box. He sent a voice message: "I heard you were very good today and dominated the poker table?"

Yan Qi returned to the room in high spirits, took off her coat, and immediately fell on the bed, as if she had no bones. It was completely different from when she was walking. She lay down to rest for a while, and just as she picked up the electronic board, the message popped up.

Yan Qi clicked on it and after listening to Ji Li's voice message, she muttered to herself, "How come this beautiful lady knows everything? She doesn't even have the chance to show off!"

But how could he be the only one who knew my news and I didn’t know his?

This is not fair!

When Yan Qi thought of this, he decisively made a video call.

Ji Li was resting in his room, sitting on the sofa in loose pajamas. Seeing the boy calling him, he raised an eyebrow and nodded in agreement.

A silvery-white ceiling first appeared on the screen, and then the camera flipped over, revealing the boy's pretty face. A lazy voice asked, "Ji Li, what are you doing?"

After hearing this, Ji Li moved the electronic board a little further away so that the person opposite could see his full appearance clearly.

Yan Qi looked at the handsome man in pajamas on the screen, observed his surroundings, and then sighed: "Ji Li, you are not working now..."

What exactly can make a workaholic stop working?

On the other end of the video, Ji Li finished fiddling with the electronic board and spoke slowly, "We'll be making continuous space jumps these days, so the signal is unstable. So this is considered a vacation and won't be so busy. I heard that you get along well with them?"

So that's why. No wonder the beauty went to bed so early.

Yan Qi thought about it and realized that except for some conflict at the card table, they were all very happy.

"It's quite good." Yan Qi raised the corner of his mouth, "Wait a moment, I'll change the angle."

Yan Qi felt her hands were aching from holding the video call. Too lazy to sit up, she simply lay on her side, resting the electronic board against the folded blanket next to her, saving effort.

However, she didn't realize that when she turned over, she pushed the collar open a little, revealing the delicate white skin underneath, and the shape of the collarbone under her neck was very dazzling.

Ji Li paused, and his amber eyes deepened.

He didn't say anything, just watched quietly, his eyes fixed on the person in the video.

But Ji Li still felt unsatisfied.

It was so strange. Even though they were on video call, he still felt empty inside.

When the young man finally adjusted his position to his satisfaction, he freed his hands, tugged at his collar, and asked him with squinting eyes:

"Ji Li, how long will it take for you to come back?"

The whole person is beautiful and smart.

Ji Li then realized that they were too far apart. If it were under normal circumstances, he would have pinched the other person's cheek.

After a long while, Ji Li finally found his voice and said calmly, "If everything goes well, it will take at least a week to get back. The journey is quite long, and even continuous space jumps will take about two days to arrive."

"You have to wait so long? Then I have to wait a long time before I know what you want to tell me." Yan Qi frowned, then came closer and said seriously,

"Ji Li, if you don't tell me, do you want to see me listless every day and lose interest in everything?"

Ji Li raised his eyelids and said nonchalantly, "Really? Then who was the person playing poker one against three on the spaceship just now?"

Yan Qi choked. Although some exaggeration was indeed used, she was really curious! The beauty was really abominable. She actually kept her in suspense like this...

Yan Qi felt a little sad when he thought that there was at least another week left.

Seeing that the young man was depressed again, Ji Li's eyes couldn't help but darken.

He was more anxious than anyone else about this matter and wanted to possess the other person immediately, but the timing was indeed not right.

First, the Li family's affairs have not been dealt with cleanly. Although it is almost certain, he still doesn't want the young man to be with him in an improper way and suffer criticism.

Not even for a minute, not even for a second.

Second, he felt that this matter had to be told to the other party in person.

He felt uneasy when the person was not around.

What if this guy didn't accept it and escaped on a spaceship overnight? If that happened, he couldn't imagine what he would do...

So let's wait until he returns to the battleship.

Ji Li suppressed the thought in his mind and changed the subject: "Where are you now?"

"Well, we have already passed a space jump station." Yan Qi thought carefully, yawned, and felt tired.

This time, for some reason, Yan Qi felt uncomfortable. She had originally planned to come back and rest after seeing the beautiful lady off, but she ended up being dragged into gossip and a long game of poker, which had almost completely drained her energy.

Now Yan Qi was lying on the bed, chatting with Ji Li casually, and the lights were automatically dimmed by the central computer.

In this environment, she felt even more troubled when she heard the familiar voice coming from the other side of the screen.

Ji Li saw Yan Qi's eyelids begin to twitch, and he unconsciously slowed down his voice. At first, the boy could still vaguely answer him, but later only shallow breathing sounds could be heard on the screen.

Seeing Yan Qi fell asleep, Ji Li stood up, picked up the electronic board and lay down on the bed, his eyes filled with tenderness that he himself was not even aware of.

He lowered his eyes and looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but reach out and touch the screen lightly, then he quickly locked the screenshot into the album.
