Interstellar Programmer 14
Before Tao Yuan and his men returned to the main planet, the garrison troops of the border star cluster conducted a combat exercise. The soldiers and senior officials were very excited to see how powerful the latest surface-to-air weapons were in actual combat. Even the general public were very excited and happy after learning about it through military reports, because the more powerful the empire's weapons were, the safer they felt.
A cosmic power like the Southern Alliance Empire no longer needs to hide its strength. One of the purposes of showing off its strength from time to time is to deter surrounding countries.
After Tao Yuan and his companions returned to the main planet, they received honorary commendations and various awards. Tao Yuan was even directly upgraded to the level of programmer and also received a military rank.
The members of other groups in the programming department were extremely envious because all the members of Group 1 were upgraded together thanks to Tao Yuan.
After attending the commendation meeting and returning to the department, the other members of the programming department were full of envy when they talked about it.
"Why wasn't Yi Yu assigned to our group? Otherwise, we would have been promoted several levels by now."
"He was brought in by General McVay, and General McVay has always prioritized Group 1, so assigning him to Group 1 was inevitable. You should explain why we weren't assigned to Group 1 before."
"I'm so envious! His progress is so fast, it's unheard of in our programming department. Geniuses are truly unique."
"He's been in the programming department for less than a year, and he's already been promoted from a programmer with no rank to a programmer, and even received a military rank. I think it shouldn't take long for him to be promoted to a programming officer."
"Hey, do you know? I heard something."
"What is it?"
"I heard that General Mai Wei and Yi Yu are dating. When they were in the Border Star Cluster, they were just like a couple. They didn't hide it at all, as if they wanted to make it public."
"Really?! Look, I guessed right, right? General Mai Wei always comes to our department to look for Yi Yu, and every time he enters Yi Yu's office, he dims the glass wall. It must be more than just work."
"But wasn't Major General Fitch pursuing him before? Major General Fitch and General Maiwei have been friends for many years, but Yi Yu is now dating General Maiwei. Why is this relationship a bit confusing?"
"Major General Feiqi must have been rejected. Didn't you see that Feiqi clearly pursued Yi Yu, but later denied that he had pursued him? He must have felt embarrassed after being rejected, so he simply denied it."
"Although Major General Fitch is excellent in all aspects, he is still a little behind General McVay. If it were me, I would definitely choose General McVay."
"Nonsense! If they could choose, everyone would make the same choice. But I guess Yi Yu is the only one who has the chance to choose."
"If Yi Yu marries General Mai Wei, then he'll be a true winner in life. Not only is he capable, but he's also married to an imperial idol. His life is so lucky!"
"Alas, a life like this. Even though I know I can't envy it, I still can't help but envy it."
Segri was walking not far behind them, but those people were so engrossed in their conversation that they didn't notice him.
Seg listened to their words expressionlessly, trying very hard to suppress his jealousy and hatred. But when he thought about the information he had found, his anger faded and he felt a little happy instead.
Segri stood at the door of the department and did not go in because he was waiting for Tao Yuan.
Tao Yuan was talking to a team leader while walking towards the department. He looked up and saw Segri standing at the door of the department looking at him. He knew that he must have something to say to him.
Saige looked at Tao Yuan with a smile, and when Tao Yuan walked up to him, he said to him, "Congratulations."
"Thank you." Tao Yuan nodded to him, without saying anything extra, and walked straight in.
After entering the department, many people congratulated Tao Yuan. Tao Yuan responded to each of them and then walked back to his office.
Tao Yuan sat down on the sofa and glanced in the direction of Segri's office. He felt that Segri's smile just now had a deeper meaning. In that moment, he had a premonition that Segri might be about to do something, and it must be related to him, which is why he smiled at him like that.
Because according to human psychology, when a person is about to do something to someone they dislike, and is very sure that it will embarrass them, they can't help but want to face the other person in advance with the attitude of a winner. Although not everyone would be like this, Tao Yuan felt that with Seglie's scheming and cunning, he would definitely be this kind of person.
Tao Yuan thought about it, dimmed the glass wall, turned on the communicator, and dialed Mai Wei's contact number.
Segri sat in his office, his glass walls dimmed, a sinister sneer on his face as he manipulated something on his computer. He thought to himself, the higher a person climbs, the harder they fall. He'd endured this for so long, and now he could finally vent his anger. The mere thought of it made him happy.
Segri specifically waited until Tao Yuan returned to the main planet before taking action, deliberately wanting him to receive the honorary award so that things would become more serious.
After arranging everything, Segri closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and let out a long breath. Now, he just had to wait and see what happened.
After discussing this with Mai Wei, Tao Yuan had already guessed what Segli was going to do. They discussed it for a long time that night and decided that instead of trying to stop him, it would be better to let him expose the matter. Mai Wei would protect Tao Yuan no matter what, so Tao Yuan wouldn't have to worry about his identity being exposed, and it would also be a good opportunity to teach Segli a lesson.
Moreover, Mai Wei was confident that he could protect Tao Yuan after his identity was exposed. In addition to the fact that Tao Yuan had now demonstrated his abilities, there was another important reason. The exposure of Tao Yuan's identity could serve as an opportunity.
Two days later, someone anonymously exposed Tao Yuan's identity on the Southern Alliance Empire's Star Network, claiming he was from Nandi Nation and would become a military programmer in the Southern Alliance. There were two possibilities: he was either a spy sent by Nandi Nation, or he had betrayed his homeland and come to the Southern Alliance Empire. Regardless of the reason for his arrival in the Southern Alliance Empire, it indicated that he had a serious problem.
The anonymous person who exposed Tao Yuan listed evidence of his identity, proving he was indeed a Nandi. They also gave examples of how his military service could harm the Southern Alliance Empire. They then argued that even if he wasn't a spy, someone who betrayed his own country wasn't worthy of trust or responsibility. Since he could betray his own country, he was even more likely to betray the Southern Alliance Empire at any time.
This person's words were well-reasoned and his analysis was very logical, as if Tao Yuan was really a spy or was about to betray the Southern Alliance Empire. This soon caused heated discussions on the Star Network.
Many people felt that the person who exposed the information made sense, and that while Tao Yuan was capable, it was too risky for the military to use him. Others felt that although Tao Yuan was not from the Southern Alliance Empire, his abilities could serve the empire and make it stronger. As long as they could ensure that he would not betray the empire, it would be better for him to be used by the empire than by other countries.
The two groups of people each have their own opinions, so they argue endlessly, while most of the people are waiting for the military and officials to give an explanation, to see how the military and officials will explain, and then decide to express their own opinions.
The people in the Programming Department were shocked upon learning Tao Yuan's true identity, but also felt a sense of sudden enlightenment. Tao Yuan was so powerful; if he were from the Southern Alliance Empire, he would have been trained long ago, and they would definitely know him. But his sudden appearance, unlike anything they had heard of before, was truly bizarre.
Tao Yuan was temporarily suspended from his job, so he did not go to work in the department. The minister also warned everyone in the department not to discuss the matter again before the decision from above came down.
Compared to the shock of others, Segri was in a particularly good mood. He felt that since it had caused such a big reaction, Tao Yuan could no longer stay in the military district.
Tao Yuan's temporary suspension is actually a protection for him, so that he won't have to face other people's strange looks and hear other people's comments about him when he is at the center of the storm.
Before the military and officials made their statements to the public, Tao Yuan first published a public statement in which he wrote down everything the original owner had suffered in the Nandi Kingdom and why he had come to seek refuge in the Southern Alliance Empire, and then allowed the public to discuss and express their opinions.
In the book, Tao Yuan not only narrated the original owner's experience, but also expressed the original owner's pain and sorrow, but also told everyone that although he chose to surrender to the Southern Alliance Empire under very helpless circumstances, since he has chosen this path, he will never regret it, and will never betray the Southern Alliance Empire, because this is his only way.
Tao Yuan deliberately downplayed the original owner's love affair with his lover, because if his relationship with Mai Wei were made public, it would likely be used to attack him. After all, it was the original owner, not him, who was in love with the original owner's lover. So he focused on describing how the Bavis family killed the original owner's lover, then made various arrangements to force him to marry in order to force him to have a child with A1 psychic power, and the demeanor of the original owner's family.
After Tao Yuan's confession was published, it was unclear what others would think, but Mai Weixian was heartbroken. Although he had investigated the original owner's past, the content of his investigation could only give a general idea, not the detailed description of the original owner's emotions that Tao Yuan had given.
Tao Yuan could only sense 50% to 60% of the original owner's grief and pain. After describing it, only 30% remained. Only by experiencing it firsthand can one truly grasp the original owner's excruciating pain. If Mai Wei knew it wasn't Tao Yuan who went through this, he wouldn't feel any heartache, as he's inherently cold-hearted and incapable of sympathizing with others. But when he thought it was Tao Yuan who went through all this, his heart ached, and he wished he could kill Bruno and the original owner's family immediately.
After Tao Yuan finished his confession, he went to take a shower. As soon as he came out of the shower, he heard the sound of the door opening. He turned around and saw Mai Wei striding towards him with a serious face.
After being hugged tightly by Mai Wei, Tao Yuan asked puzzledly, "What's wrong?"
"I will help you get revenge, I definitely will!" Mai Wei said gritting his teeth.
Tao Yuan was stunned for a moment and then said, "Didn't we already agree on helping me get revenge when we met for the second time?"
"It's not just the revenge I promised you. I want them to endure double the pain you've endured, so that they will regret their actions and live a life worse than death!" Mai Wei's heartache for Tao Yuan made him unable to control his rage. He had already thought of various means in his mind, ready to use them to deal with those people.
"Have you seen the confession I published?" Tao Yuan asked.
"I see. I'm sorry for not meeting you earlier and causing you so much suffering." Mai Wei kissed him on the forehead, his heart full of pity.
Tao Yuan remained silent because he was not the one who suffered, and he could not tell Mai Wei the truth. But in his heart, he did not want to use the original owner's experience to win his sympathy, so he could only remain silent.
Mai Wei picked up Tao Yuan and walked towards the bedroom. He put Tao Yuan on the bed and kissed him gently.
Tao Yuan hugged his neck and kissed him back, feeling his tenderness and love.
That night, Mai Wei was particularly gentle.
