Chapter 132 Dad "Be brave and love."
Shen Qingzhu did not take Ji Mingxue to meet the "fathers" immediately.
Instead, I talked to "them" alone first.
Knowing that Ji Mingxue already knew about the existence of "them" and was very curious about "them", "Chen Xian" smiled and looked at Shen Qingzhu and asked him, "Are you not worried that he will be scared now?"
When Ji Mingxue first came, Shen Qingzhu turned off the automatic projections of "Chen Xian" and "Etel" for fear of scaring him, and only came to chat with the fathers for a while every day when Ji Mingxue didn't know.
Because of this, when "Chen Xian" first heard that Ji Mingxue wanted to meet "them", he was a little surprised.
After hearing this, Shen Qingzhu immediately remembered what Ji Mingxue said, that he was not afraid because his fathers were the relatives who loved him the most, and he smiled unconsciously.
As soon as he saw his smile, "Chen Xian" knew that Shen Qingzhu really liked Ji Mingxue, and immediately looked at "Etel" mischievously, with bright smiles in his eyes.
When Shen Qingzhu raised his eyes again, "Shen Xian" had returned to his fatherly appearance and said to Shen Qingzhu with a smile, "Your father and I naturally have nothing to disagree about. Xiaozhu, just arrange the time."
After saying that, seeing Shen Qingzhu's smile gradually fade, as if he wanted to say something but was a little hesitant, "Shen Xian" took the initiative to ask him, "Zhu Bao, what's wrong? You can tell us dads if you have anything~."
The tone was like coaxing a child, as if Shen Qingzhu was still three years old.
Shen Qingzhu couldn't help laughing, but felt a little embarrassed. She whispered to the fathers, "When you meet Ji Xiaoxue, please don't call me like that."
Otherwise, Shen Qingzhu was worried that Ji Mingxue would follow suit and call him that too.
"Chen Xian" smiled and made an OK gesture, and "Etel" also curled his lips slightly and said, "Don't worry, your father knows his limits."
Shen Qingzhu finally felt relieved. After a moment's silence, he asked the two fathers in a low voice, "Dads, how did you know that you would be together in the future?"
"And how can you be sure that the other person is the one you can spend the rest of your life with?"
This is the question Shen Qingzhu has been thinking about recently.
Before meeting Ji Mingxue and falling in love with him, Shen Qingzhu actually always thought that he would be single until old age, because he didn't think he would fall in love with anyone.
This is a very common thing nowadays.
According to statistics, the proportion of adults in the empire who remain unmarried throughout their lives has already reached 77.9%.
For the Betas, who make up the majority of the empire's population, marriage is no longer an option.
After all, the average human life expectancy is now 200 years old, technology is so advanced, there are so many interesting things, and there are dazzling ways to entertain oneself, which is enough for humans to live a fulfilling life even if they are alone.
Even if they want to fall in love, realistic robots and virtual reality technology can provide them with a very wonderful experience.
And if you want to fall in love with a real person, you don’t have to think about the future at all. Just be happy together, and break up if you’re not happy.
For those who like and want children, getting married is not necessary, because the current in vitro fertilization technology is very mature. Even if you are alone, you can apply for reproductive cells from the Imperial Gene Bank, combine them with your own reproductive cells, and conceive a child with your blood relationship.
Because of this, in the Empire, marriage is not mainstream among Betas.
Only Omega and Alpha take love and marriage so seriously.
Most of the marriage rate in the empire is contributed by AOs and ABs.
But for those who are getting married, their reasons for getting married are also different -
For Omegas, marriage means they no longer have to endure frequent fever periods.
Nowadays, the empire does not have an environment that is particularly suitable for Omegas to survive independently, and the idea that Omegas must get married is deeply rooted, leaving them with very few other options in life.
For Alphas, having an Omega partner is almost a symbol of their ability.
To them, Omegas are more like trophies that show their status.
Because of this, so many Alphas are flocking to Omegas.
As for the union between AB, most of them are for mutual benefit - Alpha relieves desires, and Beta achieves class transition through marriage with Alpha.
Of course, it does not rule out the possibility that some people are united because of love, such as Shen Qingzhu's fathers.
But for Shen Qingzhu, his fathers' marriages are something that can only be encountered by chance.
Shen Qingzhu never believed that she would meet someone whom she could completely trust and like.
This may be related to the fact that he has seen too many ugly faces since he was a child.
Because of this, Shen Qingzhu had never considered love and marriage before, and only focused on his career.
He did not feel empty at that time, because his life was already rich enough.
Therefore, for Shen Qingzhu, love and even marriage have never been an option in life.
At least that's what he thought before he met Ji Mingxue.
In fact, looking back now, Shen Qingzhu himself was a little surprised that he and Ji Mingxue had developed to this point today.
But it is an indisputable fact that he likes Ji Mingxue.
When he was with Ji Mingxue, he indeed felt unprecedented happiness most of the time.
It was also after falling in love with Ji Mingxue that Shen Qingzhu realized how satisfying and happy it was to be in tune with the person you love and to cherish each other.
But in fact, when Shen Qingzhu first fell in love with Ji Mingxue, he didn't think too much about their future.
Firstly, they had been in love for a short time and did not have a clear and deep understanding of each other. They were also too young, having just reached adulthood. Compared with their 200-year lifespan, they were still too immature.
Secondly, Shen Qingzhu had seen too many AO couples who got tired of each other after the passion faded, so he didn't know how long Ji Mingxue's love for him would last -
Not all Omegas will become completely dependent on Alpha because of a relationship or marking.
Although Shen Qingzhu has seen many couples where A is strong and Omega is weak, he has also seen Omegas who do not take Alpha seriously at all and cut off relationships when necessary.
What's more, some Omegas of high birth will play with Alphas of low birth, forcing Alphas to provide them with high-level Alpha genes.
Shen Qingzhu has seen all of these.
Of course, Shen Qingzhu knew very well that when Ji Mingxue was in love with her, she always treated her with the most sincere and equal attitude. She never had any contemptuous thoughts, but was always sincere.
But precisely because of this, Shen Qingzhu liked and trusted him more and more day by day.
Especially this time, Ji Mingxue suddenly appeared in A-06, and said with a smile on his face that he would stay here with Shen Qingzhu to celebrate the New Year, and confessed his identity as the prince to Shen Qingzhu.
After that, Shen Qingzhu would occasionally become distracted, vaguely thinking about their future.
But every time Shen Qingzhu thought about the future, he would feel briefly confused.
Shen Qingzhu has always had a clear plan for his life.
In his original plan, he would fight for his ideals all his life.
Never thought there would be another one.
But now, the appearance of Ji Mingxue has changed everything.
Ji Mingxue's identity is so special.
Once Shen Qingzhu really wants to include Ji Mingxue in his life, his original life plan will probably undergo significant changes.
But as Shen Qingzhu once said to Ji Mingxue, who can say that they can love someone forever and ever and guarantee to be with only that person forever?
Not to mention Ji Mingxue, even Shen Qingzhu himself couldn't guarantee it.
Because life is full of variables.
They still have so many years in the future.
So, Shen Qingzhu couldn't help but ask the two fathers at this time, how did they know that the other person must be the one who would spend the rest of his life with him?
When Shen Xian and Etel got into trouble, Shen Qingzhu was still too young.
Therefore, they did not tell Shen Qingzhu much about their love and marriage.
Later, Shen Qingzhu finally grew up and returned to the Shen family. Because Shen Qingzhu had differentiated into an Omega at that time, and he had always been disgusted with those Alphas who coveted him, so in his original world, he had never talked about these things with his "fathers".
At this time, Shen Qingzhu was really curious about his fathers' past, and really wanted his fathers to share some love experiences with him.
There is no better son than a father.
As soon as he saw Shen Qingzhu's expression, "Shen Xian" roughly understood what the child was confused about.
"He" quickly walked to Shen Qingzhu's side and touched Shen Qingzhu's soft long hair. "The situation between your father and I is different from yours."
"He" quickly sat on the stone bench next to Shen Qingzhu, and "Etel" also quickly came over, sat next to "him", and silently held "Shen Xian's" hand.
"Chen Xian" looked at Shen Qingzhu tenderly, "Zhu Bao, you should know that your father and I are both orphans. We grew up in the same orphanage. I knew him when I was still unable to walk."
"Even before we became lovers, we were the most precious and important existence in each other's lives. We were not family members, but better than family members."
"After the second differentiation into Omega and Alpha, we encountered many things."
"Both I and your father have had many suitors."
“We all had a lot of choices back then.”
"But in the end, your father and I firmly chose each other, not only because we truly love each other, but also because we value and trust each other the most."
"More than 20 years of mutual support has allowed us to develop a rich bond."
At this point, seeing a hint of envy in Shen Qingzhu's eyes, "Shen Xian" suddenly changed the subject, lowered his head and smiled, "But in fact, even if we were in love at that time, got married and even gave birth to you, I never thought that the relationship between your father and I would never change, and we would definitely be together until old age."
After saying that, seeing that "Etel"'s face suddenly darkened, "Chen Xian" smiled at him soothingly and looked at Shen Qingzhu again.
After seeing the surprise in Shen Qingzhu's eyes, "Shen Xian" smiled even deeper and asked him, "Why, didn't you expect Dad to say that?"
Shen Qingzhu nodded, "I always thought that you and father had a life-and-death relationship."
In reality, they are indeed inseparable, whether alive or dead.
Although "Chen Xian" is an artificial intelligence, he knows that his original body and Ether's original body died in a plane crash more than ten years ago.
So he jokingly said to Shen Qingzhu, "That only means that your father and I are very lucky. We haven't really faced the day when we are tired of each other."
"That day will never come." "Aether" suddenly said in a low voice.
"Chen Xian" glanced at him with a smile, and when he looked at Shen Qingzhu again, he found that the child was looking at him and "Etel" with a smile.
"Chen Xian" suddenly coughed lightly and got back to the topic.
"He" said to Shen Qingzhu, "The reason why I say this is because many things are not under my control alone."
“Like love and marriage.”
"As long as one party is not firm in the relationship or suddenly changes their mind, it will be difficult for both parties to continue."
"To maintain a relationship, in addition to careful management and care, it also requires the joint efforts of both parties."
“As for the outcome, no one can really guarantee it.”
"So I always feel that in this era, love and marriage are games for the brave."
“Only the truly brave can walk into ‘them’ and reap the fruits of sweetness and happiness.”
"Of course, since it's a game, there's always the possibility of failure."
"This requires us not to forget to protect ourselves when we get involved."
"When loving each other, Zhubao should not forget to love himself."
"Make yourself capable of living a stable life."
"This way, even if you don't have a good outcome in the future, you can still live well."
"Of course, your father and I will always be with you."
"So, Zhubao, don't be afraid."
"Love bravely."
"We've been watching you."
