Chu Yi didn't stay at home for too long.
I went to the military headquarters early the next morning and didn't come back until the afternoon.
Immediately afterwards, Chu Yi became visibly busy.
Although he doesn't need to go into battle and kill the enemy himself for the time being, he is no more relaxed than before.
Or rather, it’s actually more tiring.
I am busy until very late every day, and sometimes I inadvertently reveal a hint of fatigue.
But the situation outside was getting better and better. There were good news every day, and General Chu's name was mentioned in every victory on the battlefield.
The Zerg were beaten back step by step. After nearly a month of stalemate resistance, they were finally defeated and fled in disgrace. The last trace of the Zerg disappeared from the territory of the empire.
But before the people of the empire could cheer and celebrate, another war began.
The Alliance declared war on the Empire.
On the alliance side, the one who rushed to the forefront of the invasion was actually the Second Prince of the Empire.
Not to mention that the people of the empire were confused, even Feren was confused.
After being confused comes anger.
Well, damn, it turns out you've been a traitor for a long time.
The Second Prince was also very angry.
If you hadn't colluded with the Zerg to kill me, I wouldn't be in this situation. The Alliance saved my life. I don't recognize you as my brother who wants to kill me, nor do I recognize that cold-blooded, blind father. I want revenge.
The two sides openly fell out and exposed each other's secrets.
Because the people who learned the truth were so resentful that they were about to riot, the king deposed Feren from his position as crown prince, made him write a confession in blood, and locked him up.
The alliance's invasion was obviously premeditated.
Previously, Feren suspected the source of the Zerg's weapons and equipment, and it turned out that a large part of it was "sponsored" by the Alliance.
The alliance is planning to use the mantis to stalk the cicada while the oriole is behind.
The Empire had just suffered heavy losses in the battle against the Zerg, and now it had to fight the Alliance. The situation was not optimistic.
Chu Yi became even busier, and because of the frequent use of mental power, the inevitable mental force field disorder came again.
Xiaojiuer had combed his hair for a while before. Although Xiaojiuer's mental force field was still relatively weak and could not help him comb it out completely, it did provide him with a lot of relief.
But ever since she parted ways with Xiao Jiuer on the travel planet and then met again, until now... she has never combed his hair again.
It has been almost two years since I picked her up.
Chu Yi sat on a rattan chair in the back yard, looking up at the night sky above him, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
How long has it been since he hugged her properly?
Especially these two months, they have been so busy.
Sometimes I don’t go home for several days, and more often than not, even if I come back, it is late at night.
He would sit at the door of her room, but actually... he knew she was not in her room.
There was a tightness in my chest, and it felt like a stab of pain.
He moved his fingers and couldn't help but take out a bottle of wine from the space button and started drinking it sip by sip.
In Xie Yu's room, Si Jiu, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly opened his eyes.
She just opened her eyes and didn't even move, but Xie Yu woke up instantly.
She turned her head and her eyes met his.
After a moment, he suddenly leaned over and kissed her forehead, whispering, "Go ahead and do whatever you want."
Si Jiu looked at him quietly for a long while, then rubbed his brows. "Ayu, although it doesn't seem fair to say this to you, I can't find anyone for the time being, so I have no choice but to tell you."
"What does Wanwan want to say?"
"You are such an idiot."
Xie Yu: “…”
If you weren't stupid, why would you keep digging your own grave?
"You'll understand later." She rubbed his head and said, "Don't think too much." Then she got up and left.
Xie Yu watched her leave from behind with a complicated look in his eyes.
He knew that not only was her identity mysterious, but she also had something very important to do.
Whether it was the inexplicable closeness to him from the beginning, or his current attitude towards Chu Yi...
"It's okay." He said softly after a while.
It seemed like he was talking to himself, and also to Sijiu.
System: [Daddy, don't feel any pressure. The mission must be completed.]
Si Jiu hehe.
