"I don't know either, I just wanted to give it away." Qiao You thought for a while before giving this answer. He had seen quite a few homeless people on all the planets he had been to.
At that time, he and his brother had seen many homeless people along the way, but only Bai Heng made him want to help this person from the bottom of his heart.
Bai Heng looked at Qiao You, and the other man's eyes told him that he was not lying.
A silence fell between the two as Qiao You openly ate the peach.
Bai Heng sat upright, his eyes looking ahead, holding a peach still covered in water droplets in his hand.
"General Bai Heng, will you come back to the capital planet with us?" Qiao You asked curiously.
He had asked his brother this question before he came.
What if we find General Bai Heng, but he doesn't want to return to the capital planet?
The older brother said he would respect the other party's choice, and that the Empire and the Helian family had wronged him.
If Bai Heng is unwilling to return to the capital planet, there are ways to deal with Leidenhong, but it will take more time.
Bai Heng turned his gaze back to Qiao You, his lips slightly parted, "Do you think I should?"
Qiao You was exceptionally frank, "To help my brother, I hope you'll come back."
"But my answer is not important; what matters most is the answer in your heart."
Bai Heng remained silent, while Qiao You continued to swing her legs happily and carefree.
About ten minutes later, the personal terminal on Qiao You's wrist beeped.
"elder brother!"
“I am here in the garden, and General Bai Heng is also here.”
"Hmm! I want strawberry and chocolate cake."
Unaware of what Helian Jue had said, Qiao You asked Bai Heng, "General Bai Heng, what kind of cake do you like?"
Cake? He doesn't like that.
He then shook his head indifferently.
After shaking his head, Qiao You excitedly told the personal terminal, "General Bai Heng likes mango cake!"
"real!"
"Okay, brother, hurry up!"
After the call ended, Qiao You moved closer to Bai Heng. "General Bai Heng, could you tell your brother you like mango cake later?"
He likes both chocolate and mango cake, but his older brother only allows him to eat one every three days.
"The mango cake is delicious! It's not too sweet! You'll definitely love it!"
As Bai Heng listened to Qiao You repeatedly emphasizing how delicious the cake was, her face beaming with excitement and full of life, he nodded with a soft heart.
Qiao You is even happier now.
A short while later, Helian Jue arrived with a lot of food.
Following behind were Ye Xin and Wei Yin, both carrying loads of goods.
The moment Qiao You saw Helian Jue, he ran over to him.
"elder brother!"
Helian Jue stopped Qiao You, who was like a small cannonball, and said, "Don't run, I don't have the hands to carry you."
Qiao You pouted, "I don't need my brother to carry me. I can even help him."
In an instant, the place was transformed into a picnic area.
When Qiao You saw the chocolate cake and mango cake, he hadn't forgotten the persona he had created for Bai Heng.
She first gave Baiheng a small piece of mango cake, and then ate it herself.
Both Wayne and Ye Xin were very outgoing, chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was quite pleasant for a while.
As an elder, Bai Heng spoke little about Ye Xin and Wei Yin's questions, but every word he uttered was exceptionally concise.
After Qiao You had eaten and drunk his fill, he leaned against Helian Jue and began to doze off.
Ye Xin began to steer the conversation, intentionally or unintentionally, toward the Leiden family. Wayne, finally showing some intelligence, quickly chimed in.
Bai Heng's expression remained as cold as ever, but his tone was much gentler than before, "I will return to the capital planet with you."
After saying that, ignoring the expressions of the people present, he picked up the plate of mango cake and started eating.
Just as Qiao You said, the taste is really good.
It's sweet but not cloying, and quite refreshing to eat.
Helian Jue already understood; he guessed that his little fish had helped again.
His little fish have this magic that allows many people to feel his sincerity and thus be willing to believe in him.
Bai Heng's willingness to return to the capital planet would save Helian Jue a lot of trouble.
"General, let Ye Xin have a check-up," Helian Jue suggested. He wondered if so many years of wandering had taken a toll on his health.
Ye Xin immediately sat up straight. "General, the inspection will be quick, it should take about an hour."
Bai Heng agreed.
It was indeed a quiet place, and the group rested there, enjoying the occasional gentle breeze.
As evening approached, the sun began to set.
Pale golden light spilled across the grass, and even butterflies rested on the flowers.
"Brother, take a picture."
After sleeping for a while, Qiao You was fully recharged. He took out his personal terminal and asked the others to take a picture.
A photograph captures the beauty of this moment. Qiao You, Ye Xin, and Wei Yin are all smiles, while He Lianjue and Bai Heng appear slightly reserved, but their cheerful mood is evident, with a slight upturn at the corners of their mouths.
The examination of Bai Heng was completed early the next morning.
Ye Xin sent a detailed report back to the capital planet, instructing Lu Yiwen to develop a specialized recuperation plan.
Apart from old injuries sustained during his previous battles, Bai Heng has had no other problems in recent years, except for some malnutrition.
"Brother, when are we going back?" Qiao You had practically searched the area around the villa these past few days.
Helian Jue spread jam on Qiao You's bread, "The day after tomorrow."
"Isn't this place fun anymore?"
Qiao You shook his head. "It's fun."
"I...I'm just worried about His Majesty."
When he left, Helian Cheng's health had improved with the help of the spiritual spring, but Leidenhong was eyeing the imperial throne, and Helian Cheng was the only one in the palace. After all, he was his brother's father, so he was bound to worry.
Helian Jue didn't expect that Xiaoyu was worried about Helian Cheng. "It's alright, Helian Cheng isn't the type to be easily manipulated."
After spending five or six days on Bell Star, Helian Jue finally led his group to secretly return to the capital star.
In the past few days, Link has completely steered public opinion in their favor on Lyra.
