Disguised as a man, she returned to the military academy and was forced to study again.

Yan Qi remained silent after hearing this. He walked through the tree-lined alley in the cool night breeze and soon arrived at the dormitory building. "Ji Li, I'm at the dormitory." He pointed the camera at the dormitory building and waved at him. "Nothing else, I'll hang up now. Bye!"

Ji Li thought of the boy's hair that was a little messy due to the wind and his red nose tip that was frozen, and he said "hmm" softly, and the video call was hung up.

After the boy's voice faded, space fell silent. Traveling through the vastness of the universe was a lonely experience. Humans were so insignificant. If they were thrown into the universe and granted immortality, they might wander for thousands or even millions of years without encountering their own kind.

The spaceship was speeding through space. Ji Li stood up and looked at the galaxy outside. The huge nebula composed of thin gas and dust emitted a strong dark red light.

Wan Conglun hummed a song as he pushed the door open and saw Ji Li standing in front of the French window. Standing beside Ji Li, he said with interest, "It's really beautiful, but I still like the Butterfly Nebula. It looks like it has wings!"

Ji Li lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking. After a long while, Wan Conglun said, "Young Master, go and have a rest."

Wan Conglun looked at Ji Li worriedly. Although he knew that the other party was a workaholic, he still had to choose the time carefully when being a workaholic.

When Ji Li left the Li family, although the skin wound seemed to have been healed, his body was still in a state of deficiency due to the long period of blood loss.

The medical team wanted to keep Ji Li for three to five more days to recuperate, but who knew that as soon as he left the sanatorium, he began to plan his departure route without a moment's rest.

He started working intensively as soon as he boarded the spacecraft, and even had to stay up late to attend Yan Qi's auction...

This is crazy. I should have known not to tell him...

After Wan Conglun said this, he waited a long time for Ji Li's response. When he thought that he would ignore him, Ji Li suddenly asked, "What do you think of Yan Qi?"

Wan Conglun:? Am I talking about this…

Can you really listen to what others say?

"I think Yan Qi is a very good person and a good partner." Wan Conglun thought for a moment and added, "He also cares about you."

He and Yan Qi have been in contact for some time, and he can feel that Yan Qi is definitely not a hypocritical coward, but a loyal and affectionate person.

Ji Li turned her head and looked at him: "You care about me?"

Wan Conglun nodded and replied, "Yes, during the few days you returned to the Li family, classmate Yan Qi asked you about it every day. You don't know how many lies I have made up. The stories I have made up during this period can be published in a story book!" Then he looked at Ji Li with a condemning look.

Ji Li ignored Wan Conglun's complaints and said directly: "Give me your electronic board."

This matter had nothing to do with Yan Qi, it was his own choice. Although he had lied to Yan Qi, he felt that this was better.

There is no need to let a teenager who has not yet reached adulthood bear this kind of moral pressure. Anyway, he will bear all the consequences himself. Yan Qi does not need to know or worry.

After Ji Li got Wan Conglun's electronic board, he looked through the chat history. From the day after he stopped replying, Yan Qi sent a text message to Wan Conglun every day.

There was no inquiry about his whereabouts, no extra words, only a single question: "Is he okay?"

On the contrary, Wan Conglun, the chatterbox, responded a lot on his own.

Ji Li put the electronic board on the table. He thought of the boy's long silence and his face that was never shown again when he hung up the video call, and his heart tightened.

He has always been taught to be vigilant and to protect everything he has, and any form of crossing the line is unacceptable.

Including my relatives around me, so over the years, there are only a handful of people around me that I can trust, let alone this kind of meticulous attention.

Ji Li's gaze shifted to the screen again. Yan Qi didn't feel disgusted by this, but instead felt a strange sense of satisfaction, just like the feeling he had when he held Bai Xue in his arms.

He and his previous partner were placed by the family, just as a routine. But now it was different. Yan Qi was the partner he had chosen, and he had to get along well with him.

After thinking for a moment, Ji Li made a phone call.

Peter Pan was a little mad when he was woken up by a series of ringing phones. Who would play a voice message to him in the middle of the night?!

He took the electronic board and looked at it. Oh, it turned out to be his dear childhood friend.

Okay, that's fine.

He hadn't expected this ice cube to call him, huh. He answered the phone, pretending to be aloof and silent. After waiting for a long time, he heard someone from the other end, "You're not talking, are you mute?"

Pan Peter was so angry that he said, "Your Excellency General Ji, is there any possibility that it was you who called me?"

"No."

“…” How shameless! Peter Pan secretly complained.

He changed his position in bed and resigned himself to his fate: "Forget it, I'm a big man and don't bear grudges. Tell me what's the matter with calling me so late at night?"

Ji Li asked, "I heard that you and your partner have a good relationship?"

Peter Pan was silent for a moment, then said quietly, "Don't tell me you called me in the middle of the night just for this matter."

He and his partner do have a good relationship and they have a tacit understanding when conducting, but it's not to the point where Ji Li would call him late at night to have a heated discussion about this issue...

A voice came from the other end: "Of course not. I just want to ask, how did you develop such a good relationship with your partner?"

"Oh, I have experience with this! I've told you before that the bond and tacit understanding between a pair of partners is very important. You didn't take it seriously before, but now you know why you ask me." Pan Peter suddenly felt something was wrong and jumped up from the bed in surprise, "Ji Li, did you find a new partner? When did you find him?"

Ji Li then said kindly: "I want to know everything about you and your partner. But you can't get involved in the story between me and my partner."

【White Lion School Dormitory】

The temperature in early winter had dropped to 11 degrees. After Yan Qi rushed back to the dormitory, he immediately went into the bathroom and took a hot shower.

She closed her eyes, feeling the heat coursing through her body. Her already rosy lips became even more hydrated, and the bathroom soon became steamy with steam. After a long shower, Yan Qi turned off the water and brushed back her damp black hair, revealing her fair, full forehead. She stood in front of the mirror, reaching out to wipe away the moisture.

The face in the mirror that looked 60% like his own appeared. He couldn't help but feel dazed. He stretched out his fingers and gently traced the outline in the mirror.
