Three o'clock in the morning.
Pei Ji woke up with a splitting headache.
The first reaction in my mind is:
Those traitors!
In fact, Pei Ji has always had a good alcohol tolerance, and it is difficult for ordinary nobles to get him drunk.
What's more, those sissies always sip the wine in small sips, using wine as an excuse to get close to him.
But today, when he glanced through the crowd, he actually saw those bastards from the Fourth Fleet.
They were all dressed in neat military uniforms and mingled among the nobles in a respectable manner.
His adjutant Luo Yuan mouthed to him from a distance: [General! We are here to rescue you!]
Pei Ji raised his eyebrows.
Still saving me?
You're obviously here out of boredom to watch the fun!
The excitement online isn't enough, you have to go see it live, right?!
But if an excuse comes to your door personally, you should not waste it.
With almost no hesitation, Pei Ji immediately separated himself from the hypocritical group of nobles in the name of entertaining friends from the fleet.
Then.
He was poisoned by those traitors.
Of course, they weren't much better.
The powerful soldiers of the Fourth Fleet fell together in the cactus bushes of Green Motor Park.
"hiss……"
Finally, I felt a slight pain in my arm.
Pei Ji looked down and saw scratches all over his muscular forearms.
It's like being scratched by a cat.
He was so scared that he quickly touched his face.
Fortunately, there are no injuries on the face.
Disfigurement is a small matter.
Being disfigured and no longer worthy of his precious commander was a big deal.
Wait…his precious Commander!
Pei Ji quickly opened the terminal.
I breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the last message: "Remember to take your medicine."
Fortunately, nothing weird was sent.
Rubbing his aching temples, Pei Ji continued to recall.
I seem to have the impression that Demi pulled him out of the cactus bush and brought him here...
Where is this...
Pei Ji looked around the room he was in. Judging from the intricate and luxurious decoration, it should be a room in the Harmonious Paradise where his father lived.
His wandering gaze paused, and Pei Ji suddenly noticed a red flame flashing on the sofa at the other end of the room.
There is a faint fragrance of flowers and trees in the air
It's smoke.
He wasn't the only one in the room.
Pei Ji got out of bed, strode to the sofa, turned on the floor lamp, and sat down on the sofa.
"Stop smoking. The smell gives me a headache."
Pei Li, the lord of Baisha Star, was dressed in luxurious formal attire, with his legs crossed, glancing at the young Alpha.
"You have a headache because you're hungover. You're young and you're feeling grumpy..."
Pei Ji leaned back on the sofa, rubbing his nose, "Dad, it's three o'clock in the morning..."
"It's time to get up."
"Take another puff, and I'll tell Mom."
Pei Li blinked and put out his cigarette.
Next to the colorful glass lamp, the dim light like the setting sun illuminates two faces that are 70% similar.
The relationship between Pei Ji and Pei Li as father and son was not close.
Especially as an adult, we spend less time alone.
The reason is very simple.
They are so similar.
From the arrogant and domineering personality to the oppressive pheromones.
When they meet, they either confront each other or refuse to give in.
When Pei Ji was a child, he was suppressed by Pei Li, but he could still be controlled. However, since he became an adult, his pheromones were no longer weaker than those of the older Alpha, and his innate wildness and desire for challenge were completely let loose.
Fortunately, he usually stayed in the fleet, and he and Pei Li rarely met each other, so the development of Baisha Star did not die due to the outrageous internal strife between father and son.
However, perhaps due to the wonderful bond of blood, there is a subtle tacit understanding between the two.
For example, now, even if Pei Li didn't say a word, Pei Ji knew why his father was waiting for him in the room where he was resting in the middle of the night.
He said, "Insect nests have indeed appeared around Baisha Star."
Holding a half-smoked cigarette, Pei Li asked, "What scale?"
"Small, barely C-class, no more than a thousand. Located in the 2315 asteroid belt, coordinates 14.23."
"I asked Luo Yuan to patrol the area afterwards, but he didn't find any new ones. It must be an isolated nest."
Pei Li nodded.
"Who encountered the insect swarm with you?"
Pei Ji: "Luo Yuan, there are still a dozen or so soldiers."
Pei Li said in a deep voice: "There aren't many people here, why not focus more carefully?"
Pei Ji understood what he meant: "All mechas have Zerg sensing devices connected to Messiah's optical computer. The Queen can check them at any time."
"There were so many reporters at the wedding, and I was afraid she would misunderstand us and think we were harboring enemies, so I told you the truth."
Pei Li gave him a strange look.
Pei Ji touched his nose guiltily.
In fact, he was afraid that the Queen would cancel the engagement in anger.
At that time, the size of the insect hole was not certain. If the man had not returned yet and his wife ran away, it would be the end.
Of course... Actually, he was more afraid of Shen Que misunderstanding...
Pei Li scolded him, "How reckless! There haven't been any insect nests on Baisha Star for over a decade. What if they cause panic on the Star Network?"
"If it weren't for your terrible reputation, which made the people think you were making this up, this would be too late to end now!"
Pei Ji: “…”
"Anyway, forget about it. The Fourth Fleet is too conspicuous. If it continues to move, it's bound to arouse the suspicion of those old men in the Imperial Court and the Parliament."
Pei Li's tone left no room for doubt.
"You still have fifteen days of marriage leave. Focus on having a baby at home."
Pei Ji choked.
"Well……"
"Uh what?"
