The moment Lan Yu fell down, he glanced at the empty space below him and almost blurted out something. Fortunately, he immediately realized that he was still on the warship and swallowed the scream that was about to escape his mouth.
Lu Rankong pressed his hands on both sides of his head and imprisoned him under his body, but he did not move at all. He just stared at his face without blinking.
Lan Yu looked at him and suddenly felt a little uneasy.
Lu Rankong looked a little scary like this, his face full of aggression and desire, his eyes filled with undisguised obsession. The hormonal scent of a mature alpha powerfully enveloped his entire body.
He moved his wrist, swallowed hard, and curled up slightly in a defensive manner.
Lu Rankong's gaze slid from his face to his small Adam's apple. He leaned down and kissed it.
She raised her head and looked down at him again, her voice low: "There will be no other omegas from now on, only me, okay?"
Although it was a question, it carried an unquestionable affirmation.
Lan Yu didn't answer, just looked at him.
He raised one hand and touched Lan Yu's face lovingly, then gently placed his palm over his eyes, waiting for his eyelashes to brush across his palm. Then, she stretched out her fingers to touch his earlobe and wiped away the few strands of hair on his forehead.
The room was very quiet, with only the breathing and heartbeats of the two people being heard.
After doing all this, Lu Rankong kissed his lips again and said solemnly: "K, you will be my alpha from now on."
Despite this atmosphere and the fact that she was being pinned down by this man, Lan Yu actually laughed at an inappropriate time.
"What are you laughing at?" Lu Rankong immediately raised his head, his face full of vigilance.
"I'm not laughing..." Lan Yu quickly put away the expression on her face.
"You are obviously smiling..."
"You heard wrong..."
Lu Rankong said: "You don't admit in your heart that you are my alpha, and you still think it's ridiculous."
"Stop being so sensitive, okay?"
"Is that you?" Lu Rankong asked aggressively.
Being disturbed like this, the strange atmosphere immediately dissipated, and Lan Yu's uneasiness also disappeared.
He looked at Lu Rankong and began to think seriously, should I be with this person?
Many images flashed before my eyes, those clumsy concerns, the careful care, the spirited faces on the basketball court, the hair dyed brown by the sun, the gentle eyes...
It turns out that I have saved so many heart-warming moments without realizing it.
Lu Rankong waited for his answer, holding his breath, with undisguised panic in his eyes.
"Are you?" he asked again, his voice no longer so certain.
Lan Yu slowly raised her hand, put her arm around his broad shoulders, and whispered, "I am your alpha."
Lu Rankong stood up straight, his eyes lit up, and he looked at him silently.
Time seemed to stand still. In the starship surrounded by stars, only strong and indissoluble emotions were flowing.
After a long time, Lu Rankong moved. Just when Lan Yu thought he was going to kiss her again, he turned over and lay on his back beside her.
He just pulled Lan Yu's hand and held it.
The two of them looked quietly above their heads, at the stars that were bright or dim in the deep space.
There was nothing in my mind, I was just feeling the people around me, and my heart was filled with joy.
"When I was a child, I often lay down like this and looked at the stars." After a while, Lu Rankong suddenly spoke up, "My mother stayed with me and told me stories about the stars."
"Do you see that one?" He stretched out his hand, pointed to a dim yellow star on the upper right, and said, "My mother said that's the Fanfan Star."
"Fanfan Star?" Lan Yu turned her head to look at Lu Rankong curiously.
Lu Rankong smiled and said, "She said that children who eat well will receive gifts from people on Fanfan Star. When I was a kid, I actually believed it and ate well. Sure enough, every once in a while, I would receive a toy in the mail, and the mailing address was Fanfan Star."
"I am very happy every time I receive a gift, and I eat more seriously. After receiving gifts a few times, I wanted to give gifts in return, so I made a few handmade gadgets and gave them to my mother, asking her to send them to the people on Fanfan Star." Lu Rankong said.
Lan Yu laughed and asked, "Did your mother hide those little things, or what?"
Lu Rankong said: "She sent it out..."
"Huh?" Lan Yu was a little surprised, "Can it really be sent out?"
Lu Rankong said: "But she didn't send it to Fanfan Planet, but to a welfare organization on another planet."
Lan Yu turned sideways with interest, propped up her head with her elbow, and asked curiously, "How did you find out?"
Lu Rankong said: "Because my mother took me there to play once, I saw a child holding a wooden cavalryman, which I made."
"What did you do after you saw it?" Lan Yu asked.
Lu Rankong closed his mouth a little embarrassedly.
"Speak..." Lan Yu poked him with her other hand.
"They're just kids, that's just the way it is." Lu Rankong didn't want to say anything.
"Tell me, tell me..." Lan Yu continued to poke his waist, "Tell me in detail..."
Lu Rankong grabbed his hand, held it, pulled it into his arms, and put his other hand under his head. He said, "I met that kid on the beach. He was playing with a wooden sculpture. I watched him for a while, and the more I looked, the more familiar it looked. When I got closer, I realized that the wooden sculpture was clearly the cavalry I made, and there were my initials engraved on the back, G and F."
Lan Yu put her ear to his chest and listened to the sound which seemed to come from his chest, with a low resonance.
He closed his eyes and asked lazily, "Why are the initials of your name G and F?"
Lu Rankong was silent for a moment. Just when Lan Yu thought he was unwilling to answer this question, he said, "That was my previous name. I changed it to my current name later."
"What was your name before?"
"Gu Fan..."
"Why change the name?"
Lu Rankong didn't reply.
Lan Yu sensed that he didn't want to talk about this topic, so she said, "Tell me what happened next."
"Later, I had a fight with him and he snatched the wood sculpture away. After I brought it back, I showed it to my mother and said that the thief had stolen the return gift I sent to Fanfan Star. My mother quickly took me out and wanted to find the child to apologize, saying that the little things I made were not actually sent to Fanfan Star, but to the welfare institutions here, and then distributed to the poorer children nearby." Lu Rankong said.
Lan Yu raised her head and asked, "Did you go and apologize?"
"We haven't found the child, and the welfare organization doesn't know who to distribute the donated toys to," said Lu Rankong.
Lan Yu narrowed her eyes.
Lu Rankong glanced at his expression and said, "Of course we found them later. My mother found the names and addresses one by one."
"Did you go and apologize?" Lan Yu asked.
"I was young at that time, you know, I couldn't save my face..." Lu Rankong stammered.
Lan Yu frowned and said, "Does that mean you didn't apologize to that kid?"
Lu Rankong said nothing.
Lan Yu climbed up from his arms and sat with her back to him.
He grew up in an orphanage and knew how it felt to have a beloved toy taken away from him. Not to mention that they had a fight first and lost.
He could imagine that kind of grievance.
Lu Rankong also sat up and said awkwardly, "At that time, I felt that my mother had lied to me. In fact, there was no Fanfan Star at all. My faith in life has collapsed, so I don't have time to apologize. It's good enough that I didn't commit suicide.
"Don't be angry..." Lu Rankong put his hand on his shoulder, but he pushed it away.
"Don't be angry..." Lu Rankong put his hand on it again.
Bang!
He took his hand back, touched the back of his hand that was red from being slapped, and explained: "Although I didn't apologize that day, I ran into him again when I went out to play the next day..."
At noon, Lu Rankong put a slingshot on his waist and sneaked out of the villa while his mother was taking a nap on the second floor.
It was school vacation, so he came here with his mother for vacation and stayed in this extremely secure villa.
I had a fight with that little wild boy yesterday. When I got home, my mother criticized me and I rolled on the ground. In the end, I was punished by not being allowed to eat dinner and was confined to my house for three days.
Fortunately, the wood carving that I made was rescued. Even if I didn’t send it to Fanfan Star, I couldn’t let that little wild boy take it away.
Although he was under house arrest, he also had a way to go out. After blocking the security system for five minutes, Lu Rankong easily arrived outside the villa.
Outside was a stretch of white and soft sand, and beyond the beach was the clear blue sea. He took the small slingshot in his hand and walked along a grove of trees, picking up pebbles under the trees as he walked and using them as projectiles to shoot at the fruits on the treetops.
After playing some fruit, and then another person played two roles in a scene of starship warriors fighting star pirates, Lu Rankong felt a little bored. He continued to walk along the path listlessly, thinking about pestering his mother to go back to the main planet.
He didn't want to stay here after just a few days because he had no playmates and no virtual cabin to play games. But he had no choice but to stay here with his mother since she didn't want to leave.
He walked into a forest, fiddling with the grass and trees along the way. There seemed to be someone in front of him, and he could faintly hear a burst of singing.
Lu Rankong continued to move forward curiously, and the singing became clearer and clearer: "The moon is crescent, shining on the sea, and the lights are twinkling, which are the fishermen's boats returning.
The crescent moon shines on the beach, and the shining stars are your eyes. ”
The song was very nice, and the voice was like that of a child, very clear and pleasant, which made him unable to help but speed up his pace.
A stream appeared in front of him. The water in the stream was clear and transparent. He walked along the stream to look for the singing voice. After pushing aside a bunch of green leaves, he finally saw the person singing.
It was indeed a child, a little younger than him, about six or seven years old, wearing a goose yellow short-sleeved shirt and shorts, squatting beside the stream with thin arms and legs, singing and washing something.
Listening to the singing, Lu Rankong suddenly felt a liking for the kid and wanted to strike up a conversation with him, but he didn't know how to start. An idea suddenly occurred to him, and he stared at the sky and exclaimed, "What a strange bird."
As expected, the child's singing stopped. Lu Rankong glanced over and saw that he was turning around to look back. He quickly looked away and continued to look at the sky, ready for him to ask him what kind of bird it was.
"It's you again, the star pirate." The child shouted after seeing Lu Rankong's face clearly.
Star, star pirate?
Lu Rankong quickly looked around and found no one else. He turned back and looked carefully, and shouted, "It's you again, little wild boy."
The kid in front of him was the one who had fought with him yesterday. The two of them were rolling on the beach hugging each other, trying to grab the wooden sculpture of a cavalryman. He finally pried open the child's tightly clenched fingers one by one, and the child started crying.
Lu Rankong was a little dazed at the time, so he stopped. As a result, the child threw sand in his face and he couldn't open his eyes for a long time.
He began to get angry, and even though he couldn't see anything, he closed his eyes and hugged the wood sculpture tightly in his arms. The child tried to snatch the wood carving while crying, but because he was taller and bigger than the child, he refused to let him take it away.
Now the two met again. The child glared at him fiercely, then turned his head and ignored him, continuing to wash things in the stream.
Lu Rankong didn't want to leave, but he couldn't find anything to say, so he just stood there.
He no longer cared about the fight he had yesterday and just wanted to play with the kid, but he didn't know how to start a conversation with him.
"The moon is round, round, round, the moon is round, big and small..." He began to hum the song he heard at the beginning in a weird tune.
"Tsk..." He heard the child sneer.
Lu Rankong gently whipped the bushes beside him with a small branch and pretended to unconsciously move closer to the stream.
After hesitating for a few minutes, he finally stood next to the child.
The child was squatting on a large rock with a bamboo winnowing basket next to him. Next to it was a small pool of water surrounded by gravel with a pile of vegetables in it.
Lu Rankong had just eaten the red rhizome and blue leaves at noon, and it didn’t taste very good.
The child stretched out his thin arms, took out two vegetables from the pile, washed them carefully in the stream, and put them in a bamboo dustpan after they were clean.
"Are you washing vegetables?" Lu Rankong asked.
The child was busy with his head down and ignored him.
Lu Rankong didn't feel awkward at all. Instead, he was secretly happy that he had successfully found a topic to break the deadlock. He squatted down next to the child and asked, "What is this dish called?"
The child continued washing the vegetables without saying a word.
"I just had this dish at noon. It wasn't very tasty, but my mother liked it very much. Do you like it too?"
"By the way, my name is Gu Fan, and you, what's your name?"
"Do you live nearby? If it weren't for the fight yesterday, I wouldn't have seen you."
Although the child didn't say a word, Lu Rankong didn't care at all and kept talking to himself.
He has been here for more than half a month, and he has never had a playmate of the same age. It is not easy to meet one. It doesn't matter if we don't talk, as long as he listens to him.
What's more, this child is fair and tender and very pretty.
Seeing that he didn't say anything but didn't object, Lu Rankong squatted down beside him and continued to say flatteringly, "Can I help you wash the vegetables?"
"Not good..." The child finally spoke, but he still kept his eyes downcast, and his pretty face was tense.
"Which child doesn't fight? Just forget it after the fight and don't bear grudges." Lu Rankong said very maturely what adults usually taught him, "They are all trivial matters, don't take it to heart. Apologize after the fight and we can still be good friends."
"You haven't apologized to me, and you're not a good friend to me," the child said coldly.
Lu Rankong opened his mouth and closed it again.
"You are a space pirate. You stole my little cavalry." When the child said this, he could no longer hold back his emotions. His chest began to rise and fall, his breathing became rapid, and he was about to cry.
It would have been fine if he just snatched the wood carving yesterday, but now seeing him about to cry again, Lu Rankong was completely dumbfounded.
"Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, I'm not a pirate." He comforted her helplessly.
The child seemed to be able to hold back his tears, but he really started crying after hearing this, "You stole my cavalry, you are a star pirate..."
Not only did Lu Rankong not cry himself, he also despised those who shed tears easily. Several of my good classmates were all alphas. They fought every day but no one of them cried. Even if some of them couldn't help themselves, they would close their eyes and howl to the sky, making a very loud noise.
But the child in front of him cried without any sound, only a few breaths, and strings of tears flowed quietly. His thin body trembled with sobs, looking particularly miserable.
"Don't cry, don't cry." Lu Rankong was very panicked.
"My cavalry..." The child whimpered, but his men kept washing the vegetables.
Lu Rankong reacted and began to search in his pocket, and took out the wooden cavalryman.
"Here you go, the wooden cavalryman. I give it to you. I don't want it anymore." Lu Rankong handed it over with both hands.
When the child heard this, he looked over with tears in his eyes, quickly reached out, snatched the wooden sculpture, and put it in his chest pocket.
Then she continued to wash the vegetables with her head down and stopped crying.
Lu Rankong was stunned for a while, then squatted over and stretched his head to look at the child's face.
"Aren't you crying? Can you stop crying just like that?" he asked in surprise.
"Tsk!" The child still had tears on his face, but he sneered disdainfully.
"Ah, this is too magical." Lu Rankong smacked his lips and stretched out his fingers to touch the tears to see if they were real, but the child dodged him.
"What?"
Lu Rankong said: "Can you teach me this trick?"
"not good……"
"Why?"
"You are bad, you are a star pirate."
Lu Rankong patiently explained, "I'm really not a space pirate. I saw your wood carving yesterday. I made it to give to the people on Fanfan Star. I thought you were a liar, so I tried to take it back."
He regretted it as soon as he said it, fearing that the kid would ask him what Fanfan Star was.
But the kid didn't care about it at all. He just put down the food in his hand and turned to ask, "You said you made my cavalry?"
"Yes, I carved it out one by one." Lu Rankong replied with a little pride.
Then he took out the slingshot from his waist and handed it to him, saying, "Look, I made this slingshot myself, too. My name is engraved on it."
The child glanced at him, looked away and continued washing the vegetables, not believing him at all.
Lu Rankong held the slingshot in front of his eyes and said, "Just take a look, just take a look."
The slingshot was right in front of him, and the child finally saw it. When he saw the two letters engraved on the handle, he shook the water off his hands, took the slingshot, and took out his own cavalry for comparison.
After a moment, he silently handed the slingshot back to Lu Rankong.
"Do you like this slingshot? If you like it, I'll give it to you." Lu Rankong said generously.
The child shook his head.
"Then what do you like?" Lu Rankong asked again: "I will do whatever you like."
The child lowered his head and began to wash the vegetables without saying a word.
Just when Lu Rankong thought that he would not speak to him again, he heard a voice as soft as a mosquito's whistle: "Thank you..."
Lu Rankong was startled, and the child continued, "Thank you for your cavalry."
"Ah, you're welcome, you're welcome." Lu Rankong was almost flattered.
The child took out the wooden sculpture from his arms, handed it to him, and whispered, "I'll give it back to you. You were actually going to give it to someone else, but you gave it to the wrong person, so it ended up here with me. I'll give it back to you now."
Lu Rankong quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, no, it was not sent to the wrong place. Oh, yes, it was originally sent to the wrong place, no, no, it was not sent to the wrong place."
The child looked at him puzzledly, his eyelashes, which were wet from tears, had not yet dried and were still condensed in clusters.
"Aren't you going to give it to Fanfan Star?" he asked.
Lu Rankong stammered, "This, this, Fanfan Star..."
"Where is Fanfan Star? If you don't know the way, I can help you find it."
Lu Rankong said helplessly: "Why are you so talkative?"
He was about the same age as himself, but his tone was very mature, which immediately made the child laugh.
"To tell you the truth, there is no Fanfan Star. My mother lied to me when I was a child." Lu Rankong tilted his head and thought for a while, then said, "She lied to me for a long time."
"How did I trick you?" the child asked curiously, his eyes washed by tears like two black gems.
Lu Rankong told the story of how he didn't like to eat when he was a child and how his mother lied to him until now.
The child pursed his lips and said, "Don't you know this all along?"
“I don’t know…” Lu Rankong shook his head honestly.
The child looked at him and laughed, then felt embarrassed and tried to hold back his laughter, so he closed his mouth tightly for a few seconds before bursting out in laughter and finally laughed out loud.
Lu Rankong also laughed. Seeing that the child laughed harder and harder and almost fell into the stream, he quickly grabbed him.
When he calmed down, the child said, "My name is Shu Yu, and my grandfather and I live in a nearby town."
After that, he took Lu Rankong's hand and wrote on his palm, saying, "Look, these two words, Shu Yu."
Lu Rankong watched carefully, and when he finished writing, he took his hand and wrote, "My name is Gu Fan, Gu-Fan--"
