Gu Yumian: "What do you mean by the royal family?"
Shuo Han: “…”
I got carried away for a moment and let the cat out of the bag.
“…”
Half an hour later.
The moonlight on ancient Earth is gentle.
All the guests were scattered in several tree holes, and the tree hole closest to Gu Yumian and his friends was the one where Shi Er Guo and his friends were. It was obvious that these children, both big and small, were very excited tonight because they had finally met Gu Yumian. From time to time, whispers and laughter could be heard coming over.
After that, from the koala tree hole a little further away, there was already a steady snoring sound.
The two ladies, Lop-eared Rabbit and Red-crowned Crane, are applying facial masks and trying to fall asleep.
Only under the big tree near the river, where Gu Yumian and Shuo Han were...
Gu Yumian sighed.
I will definitely remember this day for the rest of my life, Gu Yumian thought. So many things happened on this day.
——I met the children from the Guo family.
——I fell in love for the first time in my life.
——Or interspecies love.
And at the very end, there is a surprise.
The object of love is the emperor of the empire.
The legendary iron-blooded monarch with SSS-level mental power, who ascended the throne at the age of twenty and led his troops to the front lines, defeated the Zerg in seven years, and cleaned up internal affairs in one year.
His controversies are as famous as his military achievements. In this interstellar age with such freedom of speech, no one dares to mention his name or circulate even a single photo of him privately on the Starnet.
Such a legendary monarch is his boyfriend.
He has raised her for such a long time, rubbed her belly and paws, and provided her with good food and drink. Apart from being jealous, you really can't see any sign of her being "violent and ferocious".
Gu Yumian reached out and scooped up a handful of water from the cool stream: "I want to be quiet."
Shuo Han said with a sour face: "Who is Jingjing?"
Gu Yumian: "..."
This joke is so old-fashioned that I feel cold sweats on my back when I tell it now.
"Anyway, I—"
Gu Yumian was halfway through his speech when his voice suddenly became softer.
He looked sideways at Shuo Han for a moment, placed the back of his hand on the man's forehead, thought for a moment, and asked softly:
"Are you scared?"
Shuo Han actually appeared very calm.
At least he wasn't as nervous as when his disguise as a cub was exposed. When he described his identity, his tone was very calm, as if he was talking about a stranger.
But her gray-blue eyes were fixed on Gu Yumian, not wanting to miss any of his subtle expressions.
Shuo Han was silent for a moment, then took his hand and clasped it, flatly denying it:
"No."
Most members of parliament and ministers felt that their Majesty might never care about his own reputation.
During the seven years he led troops into battle, he would rather spend twenty sleepless hours arranging tactics than spend a minute dealing with the "royal scandal" that was all over the capital planet at the time.
Shuo Han really didn't care before.
Insignificant people making insignificant comments about themselves are not worth mentioning at all.
He is strong enough to get everything he wants.
But he also knew that he was not a monarch with a very good reputation.
'Patricide', 'violent', 'greedy', 'impure bloodline, unknown origin', 'heretic'...
Shuo Han is like a dragon sleeping lazily on countless gold and silver treasures. He has many ugly and terrifying scars on his body and is feared by many people.
Before meeting Gu Yumian, I even thought that those scars and those fearful eyes were something strange and worth showing off.
They were all afraid of him.
That's ridiculous.
“…”
Later, the dragon began to realize that the ugliness of its skin might scare the humans it loved. The fear in other people's eyes was like a tide, pushing the dragon step by step to a farther and colder place, where its humans should never be.
But it is already like this, and it will never be able to become a person who is liked by everyone, humble, gentle, and helpful.
The evil dragon clumsily and skillfully puts on a false and beautiful coat, and lives with a heavy burden on his back.
“…”
Shuo Han can give Gu Yumian a lot.
The softest fabrics in the entire galaxy can be piled up at his feet, fireworks can be set off for him for many nights in the most prosperous place on the capital star, he can be given many galaxies with rich resources and charming scenery, and his name can be remembered by everyone for a long time to come.
Shuo Han is 'almost' omnipotent.
But he could never become a man praised by all the neighbors, a kind and reputable lover, an ordinary and plain person who was worthy of Gu Yumian and as gentle as him.
Many people are afraid of him.
What about Gu Yumian?
I wonder if Gu Yumian is also afraid of him.
It's like a counterfeit product whose false and beautiful appearance has been exposed. Even though it has been bought home by a lover with poor eyesight, one is still worried about it being returned.
The omnipotent monarch never knew fear of this emotion.
At most, it's a dry throat.
The back is tense.
Every knuckle was stiff.
Shuo Han looked at Gu Yumian for a while and said calmly:
"No. What are you afraid of?"
Gu Yumian raised his eyebrows, looked at him sideways for a moment, and said "hmm" without comment, then...
"Can I ride you then?"
Gu Yumian asked.
“…”
“…”
With a bang.
Shuo Han didn't hold back his hand and with a force, he broke the solid tree trunk.
All the serious contemplation about life and love suddenly disappeared.
Gu Yumian: “???”
Shuo Han coughed, his ears turning red, and he looked Gu Yumian up and down:
"What kind of ride?"
Does he like this...posture?
Here? In the wild?
He didn't object, even—
Gu Yumian: “…………”
Gu Yumian was also stunned for a moment, then reacted and almost coughed.
Weren't we just talking about something serious? How could you have thought of something like that?
I really want to go into Shuo Han's brain and see how such a nice and cute baby could have so many colorful garbage growing in his head.
An hour later.
The majestic snow leopard stepped on the air with all four hooves, carrying Gu Yumian on its back, soaring among the stars.
The big snow leopard looked exactly like the little snow leopard when it grew up, and was many times more handsome than Gu Yumian had imagined.
The silver fur is smooth, beautiful and gorgeous, dotted with stripes, the body is slender, strong and powerful, the eye color is lighter than when it was a cub, and the pupils are a kind of indifferent and intimidating light silver-gray.
It was larger than any big cat that Gu Yumian had ever seen.
Super handsome.
Super cool.
And very obedient.
Gu Yumian hugged its neck and stroked its big furry head.
The big snow leopard tilted its head and looked at him quietly. Its cold eyes softened a little, and then it looked away embarrassedly.
This is definitely something that most people will never experience in their lifetime.
Not long ago, the snow leopard took Gu Yumian and soared into the sky from the edge of a small stream, until they could see the gentle and quiet blue stars in the night sky. Then a transparent barrier enveloped them all until they passed through the atmosphere and arrived in the vast and boundless universe...
There are many planets around the left spiral arm of Orion.
Prosperous, brightly lit, desolate and deserted.
All the twinkling stars intertwined to form a brilliant galaxy that was difficult to describe in words. The wind from the depths of the universe, blowing for hundreds of millions of years, gently lifted Gu Yumian's hair.
“…”
“Will you let others ride it?”
The big snow leopard half-closed his eyes and looked at him for a while, then sneered, with a lazy and arrogant look in his eyes. What he meant was, who dares?
I want to carry Gu Yumian back to bed.
But if he likes it that way, fine.
Own him, monopolize him, kneel down and kiss him.
Just surrender to Him.
"Alright, alright."
Gu Yumian smiled and scratched its furry chin.
Even in the interstellar age, what Shuo Han could do was beyond Gu Yumian's imagination - he could travel freely and at high speed in the universe, and could create a space with oxygen and a suitable temperature for fragile humans out of thin air. When he encountered meteorites, he didn't even need to do anything, as they would shatter into powder when they approached them.
The journey was not long, and they passed through seven planets.
On some planets, it was dusk. They bought cloaks from the locals at the market, covering Shuo Han's eye-catching silver hair and blue eyes, and walked shoulder to shoulder through the quaint yet bustling streets.
There are also undeveloped planets like ancient Earth that are completely uninhabited by life, with dead trees and long winds covering the entire uneven surface;
Other planets are inhabited by vicious, unintelligent creatures.
"Can I keep my ears?"
This time when he turned into a human, Shuo Han listened to Gu Yumian and left behind furry ears.
His hair had also grown longer, its beautiful silver locks falling to his waist. He lowered his head and let Gu Yumian tie it up for him. Paired with his military uniform, he exuded a distinctly noble, aloof, and handsome beauty, yet also possessed an indulgent gentleness directed only at Gu Yumian.
This planet is uninhabited, with only sand dunes stretching for thousands of miles and rustling in the dark.
Gu Yumian raised his hand slightly and helped Shuohan straighten his collar and hair. Shuohan lowered his head awkwardly, with his ears drooping surprisingly obediently.
At this moment, a huge monster with greedy eyes quietly approached from the sand dunes behind Gu Yumian...
Gu Yumian could only hear a loud noise, and then his eyes were covered by Shuo Han, and his vision was pitch black.
I smelled blood at the tip of my nose.
Gu Yumian: "Shuohan?"
Shuo Han frowned, his gray-blue eyes faintly shimmering with inorganic light.
This creature should have been extinct long ago. Why is it here? On a desolate planet surrounding ancient Earth?
Shuo Han: "It's a derivative of the Zerg, and it's already dead."
“…Don’t be afraid.”
This seemed to be the first time Shuo Han killed a living being in front of Gu Yumian.
Killing was something Shuo Han was already accustomed to. He didn't even need to use his hands. There was no murderous intent in his eyes or breath, and even his breathing was steady.
But he knew that he looked ugly like this.
It will make people feel uncomfortable.
Twenty years ago, on the edge of the interstellar space, Shuo Han single-handedly rescued a planet surrounded by Zerg.
The adjutants and soldiers who had rushed to reinforce at the end of the war had been completely parasitized by the Zerg and were brain dead. They were about to become new sources of infection, so Shuo Han killed them in the same way he killed the Zerg.
At that time, all the rescued people showed expressions of fear.
Shuo Han, who seemed to have walked out of hell, was killing people with an expressionless face, with blood that did not belong to him on his cheeks. He was even more disgusting and frightening than the hideous and ferocious Zerg.
'I can't guess what he's thinking, I can't tell what he's feeling.'
'Fear, disgust.'
"Those particle cannons aimed at the Zerg might turn against us at any moment."
"Anyway, life is equally cheap in his eyes."
Shuo Han hates having his picture taken and leaving his image behind.
It has been like this since I was a child.
Because he is an outlier, because everyone is afraid of him, and of course he doesn't like them either.
This kind of look accompanied Shuo Han for most of his life.
“…”
The wind from the dunes blows through the long night.
Gu Yumian reached out and gently pressed the back of Shuo Han's hand.
"Don't be afraid of what?"
Don't be afraid of Zerg spawn.
Or, don't be afraid of you?
Gu Yumian gently and firmly took Shuo Han's hand, and interlocked their fingers.
He saw the hideous and twisted creature in the pool of sand and blood. He took a quick glance and then looked in the direction of Shuo Han.
Shuo Han lowered his eyes, intentionally avoiding his gaze.
Gu Yumian looked at him seriously for a long time, then slowly exhaled.
He sighed:
"Shuohan, is it true that few people praise you?"
Gu Yumian's eyes are very gentle, like amber, sunset, and a light brown gentle lake, which is the opposite of Shuo Han.
Now, the eyes that had captivated countless people were staring at him.
The human youth belonging to Shuohan had a very handsome appearance, with his lips slightly pursed, and his eyes were clearly curved, but he looked as if he was so sad that he was about to cry.
Gu and Mian Shuo:
"Then I'll praise you, okay?"
Those people are so stupid.
Such a big treasure was given to him for such a cheap price.
"You're great, very strong. You've spent seven years defeating the Zerg. That's amazing... really amazing. Everyone makes mistakes. I know you've tried your best, and you don't need to be so hard on yourself."
"Although I still need time to accept all this, I need time to fully understand everything about you."
"But I feel really lucky to have met you and to be able to live with you."
"Thank you."
Gu Yumian reached out and stroked the corners of Shuo Han's eyes with his thumb, even though there were no tears there.
"If you like, I can say it once a day."
"...Twice." Shuo Han lowered his eyes and held Gu Yumian's hand with trembling fingertips.
Then they kissed.
On a desolate planet with only night and snow-white sand dunes, in the eternal wind.
“…”
Later that night, fireworks were set off all night long over the Capital Star.
Brilliant and captivating fireworks burst into the sky one after another. It wasn't a special day, but it felt like a grand festival. The fireworks were so beautiful that everyone couldn't help but stop and look up.
Just like the fireworks that bloomed in front of Shuo Han at that time.
From the first time I saw Gu Yumian.
Her gaze was captured by him, her pulse beat for him, and every moment and every second in her eyes and heart was filled with dizzying fireworks because of Gu Yumian.
Even after many, many years, Shuo Han still couldn't help but feel overwhelmed, confused, and upset.
Gu Yumian is the unique star that descended into Shuo Han's life, illuminating the brilliant fireworks of life.
And a gentle dream that does not require waking up.
Twelve o'clock in the morning.
Just as everyone was talking excitedly about the fireworks of unknown origin on the capital planet.
'Ding Dong.'
The blogger that everyone follows and has never posted anything...suddenly updated his first post.
"Shuo V: My Fireworks. Pictures"
The accompanying picture is a silhouette of a young man looking up under the vast starry sky.
Because it is a silhouette, only a rough outline can be seen, and the details are completely unclear - I don’t know if it was unintentional or the photographer was intentionally stingy and didn’t want to share his lover with others, even if it’s just a photo.
So he is conflicted. He wants to show off the unique treasure he owns, but he is also stingy and doesn't want others to know about it.
What is even more eye-catching is the tender love that is revealed in the language of the camera, which is so full that it is about to overflow.
“…”
Everyone swiped up with trembling hands and took a look at the publisher.
'Shuo'.
The system default profile picture, with no bio or columns, is exactly the same lazy and apathetic person as me. Aside from the officially certified 'v' and the terrifying number of followers, everything else is a complete blank slate.
But there will definitely be no mistake.
...It is Your Majesty.
'My fireworks'? ?
This is, official announcement???
That Majesty?! Who is the target???
“…”
The calm before the storm lasted two or three seconds, and then—
The StarNet is down.
[Oh shit…]
[Holy crap, what kind of magical creature could capture His Majesty's heart...]
My fireworks are so amazing! I'm dizzy! Who can handle this?!
StarNet exploded.
The cabinet also exploded.
...Before Shuohan ascended the throne, the power of the cabinet was incredibly immense, practically wielding absolute power. If it weren't for the royal family's unique and irreplaceable nature, by the time of Shuohan's father, the royal power would have been essentially hollowed out.
Later, when cleaning up internal affairs, a large part of the effort was used to clean up the cabinet.
The cabinet no longer has the power of speech it once had. Its main role now is to help manage government affairs and, by the way, create some minor troubles for Shuo Han - such as urging him to get married.
Of course they hope that His Majesty can get married.
But that doesn't mean they hope Shuo Han will just casually marry someone of unknown origin. The meaning behind this is far from the truth!
It's not proper, it's not proper.
"Where's the coat of arms?" The white-haired cabinet leader, over four hundred years old, leaned on a cane and got up in the middle of the night to attend a meeting. "This is so disgraceful and outrageous!"
A minister said, "Well, His Majesty took the coat of arms several months ago. I checked the Star Network registration information and it has been entered..."
Another minister said, "If Your Majesty insists on doing so, we will also..."
It's embarrassing to say.
A cabinet that once enjoyed great power.
Now he has fallen to a point where his power is not even as great as that of a secretary.
Of course, it is a pity that their leaders' thinking seems to be still stuck in the days of twenty years ago when they were able to call the shots.
The old leader blew his beard and glared: "What are you talking about? We are the cabinet!"
"How dare he openly defy the authority of the Cabinet? If all else fails, we'll just bang our heads against the pillars in front of Parliament one by one—cough, cough cough—and kill ourselves. Can he still act recklessly under the pressure of public opinion?"
Everyone was silent.
First of all, they didn't want to get killed.
Secondly, Your Majesty really can.
And judging from the situation, this is really sincere.
In fact, they might not even be killed by the collision. I'm afraid that if they even dare to raise the slightest objection, they will be "cleaned up" again by the particle cannon in the middle of the night...
"The war is almost over now," a minister said hesitantly, "it's about time we return marriage freedom to the royal family. Besides, allowing commoners to become first partners will also be beneficial in terms of reputation and public sentiment."
"Yeah, I think so too."
"The pursuit of spiritual power and supernatural abilities has become a bit extreme, and there's also racial discrimination. If Your Majesty could take the lead and stand up..."
"Is the war over? It may not be..." A person in the corner said, "Just detected--"
"I won't allow this to happen." The old leader interrupted them with a sullen face. "Tomorrow, tomorrow morning, I'll be waiting at the door of the parliament. I'll threaten His Majesty with death to persuade him. How can he remain indifferent?"
The minister who made the first choice thought about it and said cautiously, "I don't think so."
Leader: "Huh, of course."
Minister: "Maybe we'll set off a couple of firecrackers to celebrate."
summit:"……"
Everyone: “…………”
They are professionally trained and generally don't laugh.
Unless you can't help it.
After the emergency meeting was disbanded, everyone could no longer restrain themselves...
“HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!”
The next day, early morning on ancient Earth.
It is a good day today. The stream flows quietly and the sky is just getting brighter.
At this hour, the pandas are still fast asleep. I'll have to wake them up and wash up. What's for breakfast?
By the way, we are filming a variety show now, and Shuo Han is there too.
However, as an emperor, is it really okay for Shuo Han to participate in a variety show?
Gu Yumian was half asleep, with many thoughts running through his mind. In his dream, he felt as if he was being hugged by a giant dragon, which seemed to have a fever and a scorching body temperature.
There is something hard and hot pressing against my waist. Is it a dragon's tail?
“…”
Three seconds later.
Gu Yumian suddenly opened his eyes.
Shuo Han hugged him and yawned lazily.
Because Gu Yumian liked it, his ears had not changed back, and he even grew a long, powerful, fluffy tail - but what was against Gu Yumian's waist was certainly not a tail.
Shuo Han's long silver hair flowed all over the bed like water.
He looked at Gu Yumian nonchalantly for a while, kissed his fingers contentedly, and then asked suggestively:
"Want to ride me?"
“…”
Gu Yumian started coughing violently.
