The Universe's First Hide and Seek

"Your Highness, it is not convenient for me to respond to this topic, sorry."

Li Chen's heart was full of twists and turns, but his expression was calm and unwavering: "Please refer to the official propaganda."

"But your official account has not responded to everyone's questions, has it?" The little princess replied, "We also sent a letter saying that we want to give a friendly gift to the Dragon Clan. We need to confirm your position and honorific title before we know that you are Saenz Adopted son of the patriarch."

In Li Chen's mind flashed through Saen's old man correcting the clansman by saying "not an adopted son, but a guardian", but he was too lazy to talk too much with this little princess, so he just kept silent.

And, who responded to the country?Just say "adopted son"?This person will probably be dealt with by Saenz when he turns around...

The little princess saw that he had no intention of answering the conversation, so she had to find another topic and asked: "Excuse me, will the Dragon Clan intermarry with people from other countries?"

Li Chen: "No comment."

"...Okay." The other party snubbed me one after another, and the little princess is not a person who likes a hot face and a cold butt, so she finally resigned.

Li Chen didn't care where she was going, just stood alone, eating and drinking.Because the alcoholic drink was really delicious, he added another glass, but it was a different taste.

During the time he was alone, probably due to the role of the little princess as the "leader", other people also came to talk to Li Chen one after another.But unlike Saenz's side, which is full of "heads of state talks", Li Chen's side is basically the wives who met yesterday.The content of the greeting was not as aggressive as the little princess just now.Most of them asked him why he was here alone, talked about his two sets of clothes today, and said a little bit of "what I have seen and heard today", and that was the end of it.

At most, he also reminded Li Chen that what he had in his hand was an alcoholic drink, should he replace it with fruit juice or dairy products or something like that.

Li Chen still remembered that this lady was the one who asked for milk for him yesterday. Although these things were not necessary, but she was kind, Li Chen still responded with a smile: "No. I can drink this now, thank you for your concern. "

"Okay." Madam smiled, "Then you'd better not drink too much, if the stamina picks up, the hangover will be bad."

Li Chen thought that with 5% alcohol, there's no such thing as a hangover: "Okay."

Madam always felt that his face was a little red, but she was not sure if it was the lighting effect, so she said goodbye and walked away without talking.

After Li Chen drank the drink in his hand, he turned his head and found that something was wrong with Saenz.

——The little princess who just came to harass Li Chen, is now brought by her king father to greet Saenz.

"Tsk... the young one is gone, the old one is here." Li Chen muttered, grabbed a drink and a plate of snacks, and walked towards Saenz.

When he approached, he heard the little princess's king's father saying: "...You are welcome to visit at any time, public or private, it doesn't matter. If it is a public visit, we can send you an invitation letter after we go back, Check itinerary again..."

"Sorry." Saenz raised his hand and interrupted in a low voice, then reached out to Li Chen who was approaching, "What's wrong?"

"Drink something to soothe your throat." Li Chen handed him the drink, only to realize that what he took was the alcoholic fruity drink he had just tasted, slightly sweet and fruity. The thought of "Is it a bit unworthy of others" just flashed, Saenz had already taken the cup, and smiled lowly: "Thank you, it's just right. Is this for me too?"

"Ah, it tastes good, I want to give you a taste, but isn't it convenient for you now..."

"It's okay, I'll eat later." Saenz took the plate with his other hand, lifted it with wind magic, and placed it on a table not far away.Then he put his hands around Li Chen's back and brought him to his side to stand side by side, and then looked at the opposite king again: "I'm laughing."

"It's okay, Lichen cares so much about the elders, he is really excellent in everything." The king smiled, "I heard that he performed well yesterday, it is really hard to believe that he is only a few months old child."

Li Chen wanted to raise his eyebrows when he heard this, but he held back out of diplomatic etiquette.

Of course, Saenz could hear the meaning of the other party's words.Previously, Li Chen didn't bother to refute this kind of remark, but Saenz retorted with a little deep meaning: "He is going to be an adult soon, so he is my peer and an excellent colleague."

The king asked curiously: "In the Dragon Clan, do you count as an adult when your body grows up? Isn't it counted according to the actual birth time?"

"Using the time of birth to determine whether an adult is because the body and mind can develop to maturity during this time period." Saenz smiled, "From this point of view, Li Chen's body and mind are both mature. He has matured, of course he can be considered an adult."

The king asked again: "Then why is it not counted now...?"

"The dragon family is also a kind of orc in a large scale." Saenz was vague, but he did answer this question, "Follow the sign of 'physical maturity' of orcs."

King: ...Okay, got it.

The topic of "adult standard" ended here, and the king brought the topic back to what he said before: "It seems that Li Chen is also an excellent diplomat of the Dragon Clan, so when the Dragon Clan visits our country, Li Chen is welcome to come and see it. My daughter also said that I got along well with Li Chen yesterday, if you have time when you visit, my daughter can take you around privately, it should be very pleasant hahaha."

The little princess also said: "That's right, I know a lot of good places that don't have many tourists. Patriarch Saenz and Li Chen will definitely like them..."

Li Chen quietly stretched out his hand and pinched Saenz's lower back.

"..." Knowing that the young man was tired of the two people in front of him, Saenz took his troubled hand behind his back and held it upright.

Then he smiled at the king: "Thank you for the invitation, let's talk."

***

After the dinner, the dragon family stayed at the hotel.

"How did that princess grow up?"

While taking off those complicated accessories on his body, Li Chen made a comment that he held back all night: "Isn't the purpose of speaking too obvious? I'm afraid others won't see that she wants to marry you? Is there such a naive and direct royal family now?" ?”

"Oh, the smell of vinegar is really strong." Saenz walked behind him, helped him unbutton the necklace, and said with a low smile, "When you see them come to talk to me, you should hurry back and take an oath of sovereignty, right? You really didn't hold back when you pinched me."

"You are now a dragon, are you afraid of being pinched?" Li Chen turned to look at him, raised his eyebrows and said, "When that woman asked me face to face, 'Can dragons marry foreigners', I really almost replied 'I want to. Demei'."

"You should answer her like that." Saenz smiled softly, and leaned closer to kiss the young man's lips, "They are still 'adopted sons' in front of me. I'm already annoyed to death."

"Then you still promised them to go abroad?"

"Just said 'Let's talk' casually, if you don't like it, don't go." Saenz laughed, "Or, after our real relationship is made public, you can go in the name of 'First Lady' in a dignified way."

Li Chen said: "Then that little princess will hate me to death, she probably doesn't want to allow me to enter the country."

"I won't let you go, and I won't go either." Saenz touched his lips again, "I have a question, I wanted to ask just now—have you been drinking, huh?"

"I drank two cups of the drink I handed you." Li Chen didn't think it needed to be concealed, "It's only 5% alcohol, so that counts as wine?"

"Your body is not yet an adult after all."

"My body is basically mature, you said."

"Does that mean you haven't gotten used to alcohol yet?" Saenz pressed the young man's face, then lowered his head and kissed his neck, "Your body temperature is obviously much hotter than usual...is it up?"

"I don't feel dizzy, and I don't feel dizzy." Li Chen thought about it seriously, "It's just a little excited, and it is indeed a little hot."

"It's really only 5% alcohol? You're in the same state as you were when you were about to get high." Saenz laughed. "In Dragon Clan, two glasses of 5% have such a strong reaction, but you will be laughed at."

"Probably because it's the first time..." Li Chen himself didn't understand what was going on.He also thought it was absurd to feel hot all over with just two cups.If it's because this body is actually intolerable to alcohol, then I guess I'll have to drink less in the future...

"I'm going to take a shower first." Li Chen felt the heat of his body keep rising, his heart was a little restless, and he raked his hair impatiently, "Get me some ice water later."

Ice water is easy for the ice dragon, so he said "hmm" without thinking at all, and teased the young man: "Is it okay for you to wash it yourself? Your face is also starting to turn red, and you won't get stamina, just get drunk." Down in the bathroom?"

Li Chen said: "Such a little alcohol has the stamina of a fart."

Saenz touched the back of his neck with his hand: "But your ears and the back of your neck are red."

When the slightly cool hand touched the hot skin, Li Chen felt comfortable, and at the same time felt palpitations for no reason.He opened Saenz's hand and said, "So I'm going to take a shower. If it gets too hot, I'm going to sweat, and I have to wash off the makeup and hairspray."

"Go, don't bother you." Saenz finally "showed mercy" and let the young man go to take a bath, but he added, "I'm right outside, call me if you need anything."

"It's just a shower, what can I do?" Li Chen grabbed a change of clothes and went into the bathroom.

Saenz watched the young man enter the bathroom without looking back, smiled silently, and finally began to untie this complicated "equipment" on himself.

……

Twenty minutes later, Saenz looked at the time and suddenly felt something was wrong.

Li Chen usually doesn't procrastinate in taking a bath.And he just said that he just wanted to take a shower because his body was hot, and he probably wasn't taking a bath, although it's not impossible...

Saenz looked towards the door of the bathroom, always feeling a premonition in his heart, but he couldn't tell what it was.

After hesitating for a while, Saenz stepped forward and knocked on the bathroom door.

"Is there any problem? Call me back."

It was quiet inside for a few seconds, and just when Saenz was thinking "forcibly breaking in", Li Chen's voice came from inside.

With some inexplicable affection.

"You... come in."
