Pace clearly saw Auguste too, and that distance was not a problem for the robotâs vision at all.
He stopped hoeing, stood still, and watched Auguste approaching.
âHappy New Marriage.â Paceâs face showed a smile, as modest and gentle as he had been in Freeport. âUncle Ye said you wanted to find a quiet planet for your holidays. Itâs quiet here. Donât worry.â
âItâs really quiet here.â Auguste went to a wheat bush and squatted down to look at the golden grains. âItâs beautiful, too.â
Pace put down his hoe, went into the tree house and brought out several wooden tables and chairs. He put them on the open space outside. âThank you, Mian likes it too. We may settle here permanently.â
âOnly you two?â
âWell, there are two people on the main star next door.â
Auguste heard this and looked up at the main star hanging in the sky. From the companion star, the main star was still dark. Occasionally, there were several black spots on the large gray star. It looked desolate. It was totally different from the brilliant scene on the side of the companion star. It seemed that no matter how warm the sunshine was, it could not warm the planet.
âIâve heard that the Star Wars have broken out, and theyâre very fierce.â Pace laid down a pot of scented tea, and the bright red rose petals floated in a transparent kettle, dyeing hot water into a luxurious dark pink. He invited Auguste to take his seat. âThank you very much for being in Freeport that day. Mian and I were late and almost couldnât get out.â
Pace remembered Augusteâs suggestion of that day.
No matter how powerful he was, he could not reach out to the secrets of the military, and the closure of Freeport came too quickly and too suddenly. If Auguste hadnât come early, maybe he and Mian would have been left in Freeport forever and could not live as freely as they were now.
âThank you, too, for your flowerpots and tools.â Auguste remembered the way he had just seen Haiâan. His cold and hard eyes had softened. At that time, his JianJian was little. Two small pieces of tender buds were soft and green, as if they could be broken by a little effort.
âMy lover likes your yangyang flowers very much. He thinks your soil is also very good.â
Pace:???
He liked Yangyang flowers and soil? Wasnât that what plants used?
Uncle Ye only told Pace that Auguste was married, but did not tell Pace that Auguste was married to a pla... Botany.
Auguste saw Paceâs puzzled expression, realized that he might not have made it clear, and went on to add, âMy lover, whom you saw a long time ago, is my plant. He has flowered now. The flower is blue, and the little one is very lovely.â Augusteâs hand was hanging over the table, about the height of a plant.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âCongratulations!â Pace could not help but straighten his back and stand up in awe. Suddenly, he felt that his love with Mian was nothing. In front of him sat a man who had fallen in love with a plant and married him. Pace did not know that Haiâan had become a man. He thought Haiâan was just a small plant, and Auguste probably liked his plant because he was a heavy fetishist.
âIâve taken care of the house for you. Itâs inside the tree house. The tree house is very big. The guest rooms are on the upper floor. Mian and I live on the second floor. The first floor is the kitchen. You can get anything you want. The door is unlocked so you can carry your luggage and check in directly.
âPace?â Lydney and Carl trotted on the planet and sweated, walking hand in hand to the tree house. Lydney saw Auguste sitting under a tree chatting with a man from a long distance, but when he looked in, he found that the man he was chatting with was Pace, the robot of Freeport Plant Daily Needs. âI didnât expect to meet you here. My plant like your yangyang flowers and soil very much.â Lydneyâs eyes were bright. XiaXia had to sunbathe in the sun every day. He slipped XiaXia into his suitcase, and then he let him out for a walk!
Pace didnât realize that he and Mian were so popular in the small plant shop in Freeport, which sold yangyang flowers and nurturing soil.
But Carl turned his head and looked around. He didnât find Haiâan nearby. It was a little strange that JianJian wasnât there!!!
âJianJianâs dad, why donât we see your JianJian?â It was so abnormal that Auguste wanted to tie JianJian to his belt all day long, and now he would talk to another man behind JianJianâs back while he was gone.
âTo play.â Auguste ignored Carlâs wink. âSend a message to the others and tell them that weâre going to live here for the time being.â
âThe tree is so big that even the blind can see it!â Carl waved. âAnd tonight itâs estimated that only Jamie will come to stay with us. Alia will accompany Red Shield to watch the stars all night. Colin has to sleep in the open on the grass. Corson canât stop him, and Winchester and their guards said that they should cultivate the hardworking spirit of Queltan and the guards ahead of time, and ordered them to set up tents and not to live in tree houses.â
Auguste: â...â
âCultivate a strong spirit of hardship and endurance.â Pace put in a sentence, âThen they should go to live on the main star.â
âAre the conditions on the main star very difficult?â Lydney asked curiously, and as soon as he sat down, Carl offered him a steaming cup of rose tea.
âIt canât be said to be very hard, but there are often metal storms on it. Although it wonât kill people, itâs a good place to exercise willpower, and the terrain there... Itâs rugged. If itâs used to train soldiersâ physical fitness, the effect should be good.â
âI will convey your opinion to Winchester.â Auguste took a sip of rose tea and put down his cup. He was not used to such delicious scented tea.
âThe sun will set soon. Iâll cook first. Mian should be back soon.â Pace stood up and went to the tree house.
Lydney hurried up and said, âIâll help too!â Carl helped him bring a lot of food from the Vagrant, and he could borrow Perthâs kitchen to cook. Carl couldnât feel assured that Lydney was alone with another man and followed them in.
Auguste squinted and watched Haiâan come along with another man.
After Haiâan pushed away Auguste, he walked slowly with a red face in the green fields. Haiâan touched his lips. His lips were still hot and numb. The feeling of biting and licking just after Augusteâs lips seemed to remain on them, which made Haiâan even more helpless. But he looked back several times and did not see Auguste catch up with him, and his heart was somewhat lost.
Auguste did not catch up. It was very unlike him!
Haiâan frowned slightly. Was it because he was too implicit? Think about it, he and Auguste were married, although he had not yet given the wreath to Auguste, but since he had seen Augusteâs naked body, they were married. There was nothing to be shy about.
I should take the initiative next time!
Haiâan secretly encouraged himself. Losers are not defeated! As long as he was more rogue than Auguste, he would surely be able to suppress Auguste!!!
Busy thinking about things, Haiâan did not pay attention to the road under his feet. He tripped over a stump and fell down. He fell into the grass and passed through the branches and leaves. Then Haiâan saw a beautiful face.
This face seemed a little familiar. Haiâan recalled that it was the owner of the plant daily necessities shop in Freeport.
âHi...â Mian watched as he suddenly appeared in front of him, looking so delicate that he did not look like a human. He waved his hand and said hello.
âHey! I have seen you.â Haiâan stood up, shaking the branches and leaves off his body. His eyes were bright and he gave Mian a brilliant smile. âYour yangyang flowers and soil are very useful!â
âAh?â Mianâs face was blank. Pace told him that there would be a group of visitors on the planet. Several of them were familiar to him, but not the teenager. He was so delicate that if he saw him, he would never forget his face.
âIâm the pot of trembling grass. Youâve seen it before. Do you remember in Freeport?â
âI remember!â Mian suddenly realized that Shaking Grass was a kind of delicate plant which was difficult to feed and easy to kill. When Auguste took Haiâan to buy things, Mian and Pace privately guessed Haiâanâs survival time.
But unexpectedly, after these days, the guest actually nurtured a pot of shaking grass... Alone?
Mian hesitated because he saw Haiâanâs pointed, long ears, with his thin wing like lashes. Haiâan was relatively white and he could see a few thin capillaries in the strong sunshine.
âMe and my... Lover, came to this planet for vacation? Thatâs what they seem to say.â
âYes, I know who you are.â Mian took Haiâanâs hand and pulled him out of the grass. âPace said Auguste had a new husband coming to our planet for vacation.â With that, Mian gave Haiâan a âeveryone understandsâ smile.
Haiâan blushed a little. âPace is the old one in your shop... android?â Haiâan wondered if it would be impolite to call Pace a robot directly.
âYes, we are married, too.â Mian smiled happily. âThe planet was a wedding gift from Father Palatine. Pace saved money to buy a set of photo albums for Father Palatine, and then he cured my illness. Father Palatine is a good man.â
Haiâan: â...â
That photo is not a nun photo album, is it?
âDo you live in that tree?â Haiâan looked at the giant tree in the middle of the wheat field. He was curious. He used to live in a treehouse in the Elune Forest. He missed seeing trees.
âYes, Iâll show you around. Pace should have tidied up your room, too.â Mian helped him up and took Haiâan to the big tree.
