Chapter 41 Healing the Imperial General 13
In the early morning, soft sunlight filtered through the thin curtains and poured into the slightly messy room. Messy clothes were scattered randomly on the floor, silently telling of the unrest of last night. Xing Zhanye had already woken up. He leaned sideways, staring straight at the ceiling with his deep eyes, and the sinister look in his eyes was almost so strong that it seemed to be about to burst out.
After a while, he slowly turned sideways, his eyes gently falling on Xingjian who was sleeping peacefully beside him.
The pale little face was covered with blushes, and the long eyelashes were trembling slightly, with tears on them. He turned sideways and kissed away the tear marks on Xingjian's eyelashes.
At this moment, the intelligent computer beside the bed suddenly flashed, breaking the silence in the room. Xing Zhanye picked up the intelligent computer beside the bed and checked the information on it. He frowned when he saw the message from He Jianshan, and tapped his fingers quickly on the intelligent computer screen, replying to the message.
After covering Xing Jian with the quilt and leaving a light kiss on that delicate little face, Xing Zhanye reluctantly got up and left the room.
Xing Zhanye, already dressed, glanced anxiously towards the bedroom upstairs and instructed Lin Liang, "If Madam makes any noise, go up and check immediately. If she needs to see me, call me immediately. If she asks where I've been, tell her I'm at the Alliance Experimental Base and will be back soon. Remember, don't leave her alone in the room if she wakes up..."
Xing Zhanye rambled on and on until he glanced at the time on his smart computer. Then he hurriedly stopped the topic and quickly left the villa.
Xing Zhanye's destination was indeed the Alliance Experimental Base, but the person he met was not He Jianshan.
After arriving at the experimental base, Xing Zhanye exuded a cold aura that kept people at a distance, making Meng Yan and Tang Mengjiao afraid to approach him. However, for the sake of Xing Jian, they still mustered up the courage and walked up to Xing Zhanye.
"General Xing, was Xiaoxing okay yesterday?" Tang Mengjiao spoke first, her tone full of concern and worry. Xing Jian spent the night at Xing Zhanye's house. The explanation they got from He Jianshan was that Xing Zhanye was busy with official duties, so the address of this condolence activity was temporarily changed to Xing Zhanye's home.
"Xiaoxing is fine, you don't have to worry." When Xing Zhanye talked about Xiaoxing, his eyes softened unconsciously, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly unconsciously.
At this time, Meng Yan stepped forward, holding a stack of books in her hands, and carefully handed it to Xing Zhanye.
Looking at the old cover with slightly curled corners, Xing Zhanye felt a little confused.
He slowly opened it and saw some crooked handwriting inside, like the childish handwriting of a child who had just learned to write, as well as silhouettes of himself appearing in magazines and reports over the years.
"Xiaoxing is different from other victims of the Dawn Incident in the base. He underwent human body modification surgery, and his eyes were still able to see at that time. Xiaoxing has been collecting your information since he came to the base. If Xiaoxing really offends you, or you can't accept Xiaoxing, please don't be angry." Meng Yan said nervously and cautiously, her eyes fell on the picture album, as if she was immersed in the memories of that time again, her eyes full of emotion and sighs.
"Okay, thank you for giving me this album. Researcher Meng, can I take it away?" Xing Zhanye's voice was particularly hoarse. Although he was asking, his palms were already tightly grasping the album. His knuckles turned slightly white due to the force, as if he was afraid of this.
Meng Yan looked at Xing Zhanye, who was clearly not feeling well, and nodded.
He wanted to see his Xiaoxing right now. After getting Meng Yan's approval, Xing Zhanye immediately stood up, strode out of the experimental base, and hurried home.
The alliance experimental base was not too far from Xing Zhanye's villa. When Xing Zhanye returned to the villa with the picture album, Xing Jian was still asleep.
He walked into the room quietly and placed the picture album beside the bed. When he straightened up and looked up, he found that Xingjian had opened his eyes.
"What time is it now?" Xing Jian's voice was a little confused as if he had just woken up. Although he couldn't see, he could feel that Xing Zhanye was sitting by the bed and looking at him.
"It's already eleven o'clock. Get up and eat something before going back to sleep, okay?" Xing Zhanye looked at Xing Jian who was still yawning and reached out to touch his head.
Suddenly remembering what happened last night, Xing Jian's face felt slightly hot, and a blush spread to his cheeks, but he still nodded obediently and was carried downstairs by Xing Zhanye.
In the next few days, Xing Zhanye was busy with something, always leaving early and returning late, and the two met very rarely.
Soon, Xingjian's intelligent computer received an invitation from the royal family, or to be more precise, an invitation from the old emperor of the empire.
An emotionless mechanical voice from the intelligent computer read out the contents of the invitation. The invitation said that the old emperor wanted to make up for the mistakes made by the crown prince back then. Xing Jian sneered. He knew very well that this so-called atonement was probably just a carefully planned Hongmen Banquet.
Of course, this so-called invitation letter was also handed to Xing Zhanye.
It was late at night, and the clock on the wall was ticking. Xing Jian still hadn't waited for Xing Zhanye to come back. After asking Lin Liang, he learned that the other party was still working in the Military Affairs Department. After sending a message to Xing Zhanye on the smart computer, Xing Jian chose to go back to his room to rest alone.
CreakâIn the early hours of the morning, Xing Zhanye finally returned to the villa.
He pushed open the bedroom door, moved very quietly, walked silently to the bedside and stared at the sleeping Xing Jian quietly. He looked at the boy in front of him with tenderness, muttering to himself: "Don't be afraid, Xiao Xing, it will be over soon, and everyone will pay the price."
Thinking of tomorrow's banquet, Xing Zhanye's eyes darkened instantly. He didn't want Xiaoxing to be involved in this complicated and dangerous battle, but did he feel that allowing Xiaoxing to witness his successful revenge firsthand might be an indescribable happiness?
The next morning, Xing Jian slowly woke up to Xing Zhanye's gentle voice, "Xiao Xing, darling, hurry up and get up. We're going to the banquet today."
Xing Jian opened his eyes drowsily, and rubbed Xing Zhanye's palm with his head like a lazy kitten, and then was dragged out of the warm bed by Xing Zhanye.
Xingjian couldn't see clearly what appeared in front of him, he only heard the sound of wheels pushing and pulling coming from his ears.
"Baby, Butler Lin has prepared some dresses. Let's pick some out first, okay?"
They said "we" would choose together, but in reality, Xing Jian was like a well-behaved doll, allowing Xing Zhanye to play with her. After changing a few pieces of clothes, Xing Zhanye finally had his eye on a dress and picked it out.
It was a British-style blazer, its slim cut perfectly outlining Xingjian's slender figure. It was dotted with a few rubies, like twinkling stars in the night sky.
When worn on Xingjian, he looks like a little prince from a fairy tale, noble and elegant.
Xingjian couldn't see his own appearance, so he could only reach out and touch the cool and smooth ruby, stroking it gently with his fingertips, and a hint of curiosity surged in his heart.
Not long after, the two finished their breakfast and boarded the aircraft to the palace. Along the way, Xingjian felt a little nervous. After all, he couldn't see now, and he didn't know whether he would make a fool of himself after arriving at the palace.
However, Xiangjian suddenly remembered what the old emperor wrote in the invitation letter to express his apology. Xingjian didn't believe a word of it. Maybe he was going there to save their pitiful reputation.
