Aesop's face suddenly became extremely ugly, but he still maintained his dignity and said, "My royal brother is right. Since Ryan has finally found ALPHA, I, as his uncle, naturally have no right to stop him."

What he meant was that Ryan couldn't find Alpha, so he had to find her with great difficulty.

But Prince Andrew seemed to not understand what he was saying, and said to the emperor happily: "Your Majesty, even His Royal Highness Chang Diqing thinks that Lieutenant General Ruan Yang and my Ryan are a match made in heaven. They are a perfect match, so why should we care about rumors? What reason do you have to disagree with their marriage?"

The emperor nodded immediately upon hearing this and said, "In that case, I will decide today whether Lieutenant General Ruan Yang and Ryan will be engaged."

The emperor only wanted Ruan Yang to marry into the royal family and marry an omega from the royal family. He didn't really care whether it was Aesop or Ryan.

Even compared to the scheming and ambitious Aesop, the emperor felt that the brainless Prince Andrew was much easier to control and closer to him.

As for why Ruan Yang, as Aesop's ex-boyfriend, suddenly fell in love with Ryan... As an ALPHA, he didn't have any doubts at all.

After all, judging by yourself, which ALPHA doesn’t like young and beautiful OMEGA?

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ruan Yang immediately nodded in thanks.

The emperor laughed out loud: "Lieutenant General Ruan Yang, from now on you are my nephew-in-law. Why do you need to call me Your Majesty? Just call me uncle like Ryan did. I think you should be one of my family."

Ruan Yang and Ryan's engagement was settled, and everyone quickly left the palace.

Aesop remained silent throughout the journey, and it was obvious that she had tacitly agreed to the marriage between her ex-boyfriend and her nephew. Just as he and Ruan Yang were walking towards their own hovercrafts.

"Ruan Yang, you are so cruel." He glanced at Ruan Yang from behind and said angrily, "Do you really hate me so much that you have to do things so ruthlessly, to the point where it is irreversible?"

He didn't believe that Ruan Yang would really fall in love with Ryan, that young boy.

Ruan Yang had no expression on his face, and he didn't even bother to look back. He just said to Aesop calmly, "I'm sorry, Your Highness. I don't think that Your Highness and I are that familiar with each other, and I don't think that there is anything between us that can be undone."

Everything between him and Aesop ended decades ago.

No matter what Aesop thought, he could not mend his broken mirror...

"I don't think you are that familiar with me, nor do I think there is anything between us that can be undone. Ruanyang, hello, you are very good." Aesop's eyes seemed to bleed for a moment, and he said every word with hatred.

This time, Ruan Yang didn't even think about replying to him. He just walked straight up and got on his hovercraft.

Aesop looked at his cold and almost resolute back, clenched his hands into fists, and even his nails almost dug into the flesh.

The news of Ruan Yang and Ryan's engagement became a foregone conclusion in an instant and spread throughout the aristocratic circles of the Imperial Star. Faced with this complicated relationship, they simply didn't know whether to think that this was a nephew who stole his uncle's fiancé. After the breakup, Ruan Yang got together with her ex-boyfriend's nephew, so she had to call her ex-boyfriend uncle.

Regarding such a rare and shocking news in the royal family, the nobles of the Imperial Star simply chose to watch the drama silently, and by the way, they lamented that although Lieutenant General Ruan Yang had been in a coma for many years, his personal charm remained as strong as before.

As for this marriage, Ruan Tang, the younger brother, did not express anything. He believed that Ruan Yang was already an adult and would know his limits in everything he did. Whether it was Ryan or Aesop, as long as it was the choice made by his elder brother, Ruan Tang would respect it...

He felt that as long as his respected eldest brother was happy, that was all that mattered.

Ruan Tang had planned to meet his future sister-in-law, but he was too busy to spare the time.

The reason why he was busy was not anything else, but because his 29th birthday was approaching.

When Ruan Tang married Austin, because she was not favored, although she was called the Duchess, she was actually just a reproductive tool and no big celebration was held. Even Austin himself did not attend the wedding banquet.

But less than a year later, the situation is very different now——

He is not only the head of the Ruan family, the most beloved brother of Lieutenant General Ruan Yang, the most favored person in front of the queen, but also Austin's most cherished partner.

Even if he wanted to keep it simple, Auston would never agree to it in order to fill the gap in the wedding.

Auston not only wants to hold this birthday party for Ruan Tang, but also wants to make it a grand one.

Not only did it cost a lot of money, the preparation time was also advanced by countless days, and celebrities from the entire Imperial Star were invited to the banquet.

"Hello, my respected Duchess, happy birthday. You are getting more beautiful every day." On the day of the birthday party, countless celebrities and nobles gathered around Ruan Tang and greeted him, the protagonist.

"Chairman Ruan is getting more and more handsome, happy birthday." I said happy birthday to him.

Ruan Tang immediately politely thanked each of these gorgeously dressed men and women: "Thank you."

It was still the same venue as the wedding banquet, and there were still the same group of noble and elegant celebrities and aristocrats, but Ruan Tang's status and circumstances were very different from what they were then.

Not only did his mother and brother wake up and stay by his side, but he also had his own lover.

Ruan Tang now feels extremely happy.

Looking at the birthday party scene that she had never imagined in the past, Ruan Tang was about to go find Austin with some boredom.

"Long time no see, Ruan Tang..." Just then, a young ALPHA man suddenly called him.

Ruan Tang was stunned for a long time before recognizing him: "It's been a long time, Lieutenant Colonel Lu Yang."

The person who came was none other than Lu Yang, a former colleague from the research institute who had tried to persuade Ruan Tang to elope with him but failed.

Ruan Tang didn't expect to meet him in such an occasion.

"I came here with my senior from the research institute. I'm sorry. Now that I think about it, I owe you an apology..." Lu Yang looked at Ruan Tang awkwardly: "At the beginning, I seemed to be possessed by a ghost. I was too stupid, too narrow-minded, and too arrogant. I must have caused you a lot of trouble, right?"

It was not until now that he mustered up the courage to sincerely apologize to Ruan Tang.

Ruan Tang obviously didn't take it to heart, and said lightly: "It's okay, it's nothing, I don't remember it a long time ago."

Lu Yang was about to say something else when the music from the dance party started playing.

According to the rules of the Imperial Star Ball, once the music starts, people standing on the dance floor have to dance.

Ruan Tang was stunned for a moment.

"Can I...can I ask you to dance with me?" Lu Yang looked at Ruan Tang awkwardly, and stretched out his hand to invite him to dance in a very gentlemanly manner.

Considering the etiquette of the dance, Ruan Tang was just planning to dance with Lu Yang casually. Just as she stretched out her hand, before her hand touched Lu Yang's hand, Auston appeared out of nowhere and grabbed Lu Yang's hand.

Everyone around was startled.

He looked at them in surprise.

After the erotic video with Ruan Tang was exposed, Auston has rarely used a wheelchair and in most cases wears prosthetic limbs when traveling.

In order to match Ruan Tang's birthday atmosphere today, he also changed the mask that covered his entire face to a silver mask that only covered his facial scars.

The horror has been greatly reduced, but the power remains.

His rushing into the dance floor like this was actually very against the rules, but because he was the one who did it, no one dared to say anything.

Ruan Tang was immediately startled: "Sir——"

Just as everyone present was looking at Auston with lingering fear, thinking that he was going to go crazy and beat someone up in the next second, they felt extremely sympathetic towards Lu Yang, the unknown ALPHA.

However, Auston grabbed Ruan Tang's hand, looked deeply at Lu Yang, and answered Ruan Tang's invitation: "No."

"My Duchess can only dance with me." After saying this, he looked at Ruan Tang intently again, revealing a standard ALPHA smile that was full of possessiveness.

His words were unreasonable and overbearing, not in accordance with the rules of the dance...

But no one dared to refute, and they all echoed, "Yes, yes, Chairman Ruan's dance can only be performed by the Duke, and no one else can replace him."

"That's right, that's right. Especially this opening dance, shouldn't the Duke lead it?"

"I never saw the Duke of Austin dance."

In the past, it would have been extremely horrifying for Austin to show such an expression through the mask, but at this moment, when he showed such an expression with his handsome face, it made people feel inexplicably domineering and sweet.

The noble ladies who were watching on the side finally had the courage to make a fuss.

Lu Yang looked at the people around him who were making a fuss, and at Austin and Ruan Tang who were surrounded by people like a perfect couple, and immediately retreated quietly and sadly, leaving the stage and the right to be the center of attention to Ruan Tang and Austin.

He had said in front of Ruan Tang more than once that Auston was a devil, a hell, and a cripple that no OMEGA would be willing to marry, but at this moment he was not even qualified to be compared with Auston.

"How about it? Can I ask you to dance with me, my Duchess?" Austin stretched out his hand toward Ruan Tang and made a standard dance invitation gesture.

Ruan Tang smiled slightly, immediately returned his greeting, and said softly: "Of course, my highness."

Under the gaze of everyone, the two danced gracefully with standard movements, looking extremely harmonious, graceful and normal.

"Hmph, I've only been away for a while and you've already attracted a lot of flies. I knew you're a troublesome person! Can't you let people leave for a while?" But when the two of them moved closer, the whisper in Ruan Tang's ear revealed his true colors.

Ruan Tang hugged him and whispered mischievously when she got close to him: "What's wrong? My Set, are you jealous?"

"Jealous? You wishful thinking? I'm just afraid that you'll be cheated." Auston hugged him tightly, pressed his head to his shoulder, and sneered disdainfully: "Just that coward just now, he actually had the guts to invite you to elope, what kind of person is he? He didn't even take a mirror to look at himself, is he worthy of it?"

Who dares to seduce his OMEGA?

Ruan Tang knew he was jealous when she saw him like this, but he refused to admit it. She laughed and said, "Since you don't want this to happen, why do you want to hold a big banquet? You know that holding a banquet means you have to entertain and socialize, right?"

He actually liked Auston's possessiveness, so he was not happy about hosting any parties.

When attending other people's banquets, he can stay away and not participate in the dancing and socializing, but it would be inappropriate for him to be the host.

"How can that be? Today is your birthday, I must celebrate it in a big way." Unexpectedly, after hearing Ruan Tang's words, Auston changed his usual arrogance and looked at Ruan Tang seriously and said.

Ruan Tang was slightly startled.

Auston suddenly thought of something and took his hand: "Come with me, I'll take you to see something."

"What are you looking at? We hosted this banquet. It would be a bad idea to just abandon everyone and run away, right?" Ruan Tang was stunned by his pulling and hesitated.

But Auston insisted on pulling him out: "Why bother with them? Today is your birthday, you are the biggest, everyone should make you happy."

He always follows his own will and doesn't care about other things.

Ruan Tang hesitated for a moment, and seeing that everyone at the banquet was having a good time, and that Tang Yun and Ruan Yang were entertaining them, she quietly ran off with Auston.

The two of them were getting farther and farther away from the sound of music in the huge Duke's palace, gradually moving away from the lively and bright place.

Auston held his hand tightly and led him around.

Ruan Tang arrived at a secluded place in the mansion that she seldom visited. The bright moon was hanging in the dark night sky, surrounded by silvery-white stars.

Then, in the night, Ruan Tang saw large tracts of crabapple trees with twisted trunks...

Thousands and thousands of them united together, at first glance it looks like a sea of ​​flowers, or like an incomparably gorgeous brocade. Crimson, red, bright red, and pink crabapple flowers bloom in the night, emitting bursts of rich floral fragrance.

It's so beautiful.

"What is this?" Ruan Tang couldn't help but be stunned and a little confused.

Auston stood in the sea of ​​flowers, his lips curled up slightly, but he looked at him proudly: "Didn't you say before that you wanted to see the crabapple flowers? I'll find them for you to see now."

It was the first time for Ruan Tang to receive so many flowers since he was a child. What was even more rare was that Auston took every word he said to heart. He just wanted to see what the crabapple flowers looked like, but Auston found a sea of ​​flowers for him.

Looking at these vibrant, brightly colored crabapple trees with tangled roots, Ruan Tang's heart skipped a beat.

Ruan Tang couldn't help but ask him: "Sir, why are you so nice to me?"

"Of course it's because you are my OMEGA, and I want to make you happy." Austin looked at him in confusion, as if he had asked some stupid question and it was a matter of course.

When he said this, the expression on his face was extremely serious, as if he was asking Ruan Tang: "If he doesn't treat him well, who else can he treat well?" '

Ruan Tang smiled gently, took a step forward, suddenly took off Austin's mask, and kissed him deeply on the lips.

He keenly noticed that Auston's attitude towards him had changed from "I'm nice to you just because I want to make myself happy, not to make you happy" to "I'm nice to you because I want to make you happy", which shows that he has completely integrated into Auston's heart.

Ruan Tang was extremely satisfied with the current situation.
