Bai Li didn't know much about Tang Xiao, but he knew that he couldn't go into the private room when he came to the restaurant with Tang Xiao.

Sometimes the walls of the private room are people's faces. People have to save their skin outside, but they can be shameless in the private room.

Maybe he was very angry, Bai Li felt the veins on Tang Xiao's forehead throbbing. But because they were still in a public place, Tang Xiao had to maintain his noble image. He suppressed his anger several times, and then spoke again without raising his voice: "If you want to know, you can ask Major General Lu yourself. You two have a good relationship, right?"

Bai Li smiled: "Stop fooling me."

"Is this your upbringing?" Tang Xiao couldn't stand it. "Can't you talk properly?"

Bai Li spread his hands and said lazily: "There's nothing I can do. My parents died early and no one taught me."

Fortunately, Tang Xiao was almost irritated to death. You

can't lose your temper here. Tang Xiao has lived so long, and the thing he can't stand the most is embarrassment. Bai Li is different. He doesn't care about embarrassment at all. If you make him angry here, he will still beat you up and make you unable to walk for half a month.

Tang Xiao's mouth twitched, and he smiled with a slightly mocking smile: "It seems that Major General Lu doesn't tell you everything, otherwise you would be so angry?"

This sentence hurt Bai Li for some reason.

He never regarded Tang Xiao as a person, so the words that came out of Tang Xiao's mouth in these years were like farts to Bai Li, except that they made him frown and feel nauseous for a while, but they didn't hurt or itch.

But when Lu Zhao was mentioned in these words, Bai Li found that he couldn't stand it.

"You may not know that Major General Lu and Kaiyuan were engaged before." Tang Xiao noticed something strange about Bai Li, relaxed his brows, and temporarily put aside the threatening look Lu Zhaolin had before he left. "It was decided by Major General Lu's father before he died." After

saying that, he looked at Bai Li's expression again.

But he did not see the surprise and anger on Bai Li's face as expected.

Tang Xiao reacted for a long time: "You know?"

Thinking about the cold glance Lu Zhaolin gave him before he left, Tang Xiao felt it was unlikely. The Tang

family concealed this engagement very well. After all, Lu Zhaolin was still an unknown little person in the early years. If they knew that he would be so successful today, the Tang family should have announced the engagement eight hundred years ago. When the Tang family was about to announce the engagement, Tang Kaiyuan disappeared and Lu Zhao was injured and unable to have children, so the engagement was delayed until it was cancelled. During

this period, Bai Li was always an outsider. If the optical computer had not matched him and Lu Zhao, they might not have had any intersection in this life.

Before Tang Xiao could think about it carefully, Bai Li's fingers tapped the table: "Go on."

This reaction was much different from what he expected. Tang Xiao clasped his hands together, and his thumbs rubbed because of anxiety: "There's nothing to say, don't you know everything?"

Originally wanted to use this matter to tease Bai Li, but he didn't expect that this person was not surprised at all.

"Do you know that it doesn't matter whether I tell you or not?" Bai Li's voice was quite calm. "You said he didn't agree. What didn't he agree to?"

Bai Li felt that his head and heart had different ideas.

His head told Bai Li that this was Lu Zhao's private matter. If he didn't tell Bai Li, then Bai Li shouldn't ask any more questions.

But his heart didn't agree.

His heart felt that if he didn't ask, then Bai Li might never wait for Lu Zhao to speak.

The waiter carefully brought two more drinks. Tang Xiao took a sip. His emotions were heated by the temperature of the hot drinks before he gradually calmed down: "It's really nothing. Anyway, it's all over. When Kaiyuan comes back, the engagement will be cancelled. You and I...his mother and I will tell him about it."

In the original novel, after Tang Kaiyuan returned to the main planet, he learned that his engagement partner had married a brother of a different surname. He went straight to Bai Li's residence to question him, and then reunited with Lu Zhao.

That was the first stop on Bai Li's road to bad luck in the original novel.

Bai Li had been mentally prepared for these things. He had not lived in vain for so many years.

In the past, he thought it would be better to speed up the plot. If they were going to do it, they should do it earlier. It was too tiring to wait for that day to come.

But recently, he felt that time was passing too fast. He didn't even have the time to talk to Lu Zhao more, chat more, or have a few more simulated confrontations, the time was almost up.

Bai Li felt that he hadn't been able to let Lu Zhao get to know him better, and know that he, Bai Li, was actually not bad, and Lu Zhao was about to leave.

"Since you are not willing to help, I won't say much..." Tang Xiao felt very discouraged, and planned to go to the First Army Corps to see the situation later. It would be best if he could meet Lu Zhao himself. This major general is much easier to talk to than his son.

Bai Li raised his eyebrows: "If you don't try to answer my question, how do you know I am not willing to help?"

Tang Xiao was stunned by what he said, and his lips were burned by the hot drink. He gasped in pain, but his eyes did not move away from Bai Li's face: "Are you willing?"

Bai Li didn't say anything, just smiled.

He and Lu Zhao may only have a few days left to spend peacefully together in their lives, and Bai Li couldn't help but want to know more. As long as it was related to Lu Zhao, Bai Li wanted to know even if he heard it from a scumbag like Tang Xiao.

Tang Xiao hesitated for a few seconds, and finally spoke: "Actually it's nothing, Major General Lu couldn't... You should know that after being injured?"

He glanced at Bai Li, and when he thought about Bai Li being confronted with such an omega, Tang Xiao actually felt a little bit of sympathy.

"Speak to the point." There was no emotion on Bai Li's face that Tang Xiao could catch.

"What else can be emphasized? This is just a family affair." Tang Xiao did not dare to lose his temper with Bai Li. He frowned and took another sip of hot drink. "In fact, it's not that we cannot accept his physical problems, but Kaiyuan must have a child, right? At that time, we also found Kaiyuan's whereabouts, so we thought that when Kaiyuan came back, we would let him marry Major General Lu first. As for the child, as long as Major General Lu is willing, we can let Kaiyuan and--"

Bai Li felt disgusted: "Stop, stop. You mean, you want to bring back a child of Tang Kaiyuan and someone else?"

"Yeah," Tang Xiao nodded, "What's the big deal? It doesn't have to be a relationship. Nowadays, the means are so advanced, isn't it easy to have an open-source child? I told Major General Lu that, and I also promised that there would be no other situation. Major General Lu was not happy and took the initiative to cancel the engagement..."

Bai Li took a sip of the hot drink.

The bitter taste similar to coffee spread in his mouth.

What a rotten person and what a rotten thing this is, Lu Zhao.

Tang Xiao's energy came up again, and he continued, "What else can we do? Our Tang Group can't be cut off here in Kaiyuan. Bai Li, I have to care about you too. You have to consider the problem of the child. You are the only one left in Bai Group..."

Then he saw Bai Li, who was sitting opposite him, stood up directly without even looking at Tang Xiao.

"Where are you going?" Tang Xiao didn't react.

"Let's go." Bai Li picked up the personal terminal, "Don't say anything else, I don't want to stay here for another minute."

Tang Xiao said angrily, "What do you mean?"

Bai Li was too lazy to even answer, and he raised his legs to walk out.

"What about what we talked about before?" Tang Xiao also stood up and asked.

"Wait." Bai Li sneered, whoever does things for you will be your grandson. Then he leaned down slightly and whispered in Tang Xiao's ear, "Also, don't fucking recruit Lu Zhao again."

This time, without the pressure of pheromones, Tang Xiao still felt the ferocity in Bai Li's words.

When Bai Li walked out of the restaurant and called out his own suspension car, the rain had already started to fall.

The sky was covered with a thick layer of lead-gray, which made Bai Li breathless.

It turned out that Lu Zhao was not happy at first. He was not willing to raise Tang Kaiyuan's child, nor was he willing to marry such a Tang.

But in the original novel, at the end, several of Tang Kaiyuan's lovers were pregnant and had children. Everyone was revolving around the center of this world, and Lu Zhao was also caught in it.

Lu Zhao has grown up so much, when has he ever lowered his head? Bai Li used to be in a god's perspective, and he felt that Lu Zhao was arrogant and stubborn, but he also had the capital. At that time, Bai Li felt that if he really wanted to get to know Lu Zhao, even if he couldn't do anything, he should at least have a couple of drinks.

When Bai Li stood in the god's world and looked at this world that revolved around one person, he felt disgusted at most. In Tang Kaiyuan's world, the excellence of the supporting characters was just a prelude to being conquered by him later.

When Bai Li really stood here, he just felt suffocated.

Lu Zhao's hand held his hand, Lu Zhao's skin touched his scars, and his teeth marks were imprinted on the back of Lu Zhao's neck.

That was not a character in the original book, that was a living, flesh-and-blood Lu Zhao.

He is not a template person who is set in a persona. He has come to where he is today step by step. His existence is not set off by anyone, and his straight back is not for being crushed by some bastard.

Bai Li opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat.

The rain outside the car was getting heavier, and he lay on the steering wheel and couldn't stand up.

After a day of training, Lu Zhao took a shower, changed back to casual clothes, and glanced at his personal terminal.

The messy news on the Star Network kept popping up prompts through pop-up windows, but the personal text messages were clean. Except for work information, there was not a single personal text message.

"Major General, you have been distracted all day." Huo Cun also changed his clothes and came out, "Are you in a bad state?"

Lu Zhao turned his head to look at him.

Huo Cun's scalp tingled when he saw this: "Hey, you bastard! You're in great shape, and you hit me with just as much force!"

Lu Zhao said "hmm" before turning over his personal terminal again.

Huo Cun was choked by the "hmm". Huo Cun had only seen Major General Lu Zhao, who frankly admitted that he beat people without mercy.

Having been Lu Zhao's adjutant for so long, Huo Cun had a good grasp of Lu Zhao's condition. He still felt that Lu Zhao was a little distracted today, but he didn't continue to ask about this issue, and changed the subject: "Major General, you looked at your personal terminal more than ten times today, what were you looking at?"

Lu Zhao himself didn't realize this at all, and was stunned when Huo Cun exposed it.

From this morning till now, Bai Li's expression before leaving would appear in his mind from time to time.

Why was it that expression? Lu Zhao couldn't figure it out. He never knew what was going on in Bai Li's mind. He used to find it funny when he couldn't figure it out, but now that he couldn't figure it out, Lu Zhao couldn't laugh anymore.

Tang Xiao showed up too suddenly. When Lu Zhao thought that this person could basically be excluded from his social circle, he showed up again.

Maybe Tang Xiao crossed the lives of both Lu Zhao and Bai Li, so the moment he came out, Lu Zhao felt that the boundary between him and Bai Li became clear again.

Lu Zhao wondered, and he didn't know what the two of them talked about.

If they really talked about him and Tang Kaiyuan... Lu Zhao didn't think about it any further.

Huo Cun called him several times: "Are you leaving now, Major General? I think Major General Han Miao is getting impatient."

Lu Zhao took a long time to respond.

"Isn't it about the post-war report a while ago?" Huo Cun frowned when he mentioned that matter. "Major General Han Miao was so angry that he kept cursing his mother these days and insisted on going for a drink. Did you forget? He just told you this this morning!"

Lu Zhao thought for a few seconds before remembering.

A few days ago, when he was resting at home, he submitted a report on the latest desert planet development war. The credit that should have been attributed to Lu Zhao and Han Miao was simply passed on by the leader, who actually allocated part of it to several related accounts of the Second Army Corps. This made Han Miao furious, and he went to Jiang Hao to complain several times.

Jiang Hao had no choice, as he did not write the report, nor did he submit it to his superiors. He could only comfort Han Miao and could not say anything else.

In fact, Lu Zhao felt uncomfortable thinking about this, but he had encountered many uncomfortable things in the past few years and could handle it better than Han Miao. Han Miao was not so good. When she heard that Lu Zhao had gone to work, she came to him early in the morning and insisted on having a couple of drinks tonight to scold the leader.

Lu Zhao almost forgot about it because he was only thinking about Tang Xiao and Bai Li.

Anyway, the training was over, so Lu Zhao and Huo Cun planned to go directly to the place Han Miao mentioned to find him. After walking two steps, Lu Zhao stopped again.

Huo Cun looked back at him: "Major General, what's the matter?"

Lu Zhao gestured to let him go first, and took out his personal terminal and found Bai Li's name in the address book.

His finger paused on the input bar for a while before Lu Zhao typed a text message: I have something to do, I will be back later.

I don't know why, but I remembered that Bai Li pinched the back of his hand before leaving, and said that he would tell me when he got back.

Lu Zhao paused for a few seconds and sent another message: I have something to tell you in the evening.

The message was sent, and Lu Zhao waited for a while, but Bai Li did not reply.

I don't know if this grandson is busy or what, he has been quiet all day today.

The car drove all the way to the agreed small restaurant. The places Han Miao chooses are generally like this: small, but the food is good, and most importantly, you can drink without worry, and there are plenty of side dishes.

When Lu Zhao and Huo Cun entered the private room, Han Miao was almost drunk.

Sitting next to him was Han Miao's legal partner Chen Nan, who was eating with chopsticks while pushing away Han Miao who was getting too drunk and couldn't control himself.

Seeing Lu Zhao and Huo Cun coming in, Chen Nan greeted them: "You're here? Sit down and order a few more dishes."

"How can you still eat? You've been so drunk." The few of them were all very familiar with each other. Huo Cun was very relaxed when talking outside the legion, and he laughed when he saw Han Miao like this.

"It's okay, your mind is relatively clear," Chen Nan patted Han Miao, "it's just that you stutter when you speak."

Chen Nan is an omega in the logistics department of the First Legion. He and Han Miao got married early and they have always had a good relationship. He usually takes good care of Lu Zhao. At first, he was worried that Lu Zhao, an omega, would be bullied in the legion. Later, he was worried that Lu Zhao would bully others in the legion. Fortunately, Lu Zhao was not a troublesome person, so these worries did not exist for the two of them.

Lu Zhao sat down, and Han Miao stood up, pushed the full wine glass in front of him, and said with a big tongue: "Drink!"

"..." Lu Zhao was almost scared by his shout, and was about to drink, but he remembered that he had to talk to Bai Li in the evening, so he stopped, "I have something to do in the evening, I can't drink."

Huo Cun was not shy at all, poured himself a glass, and began to drink and eat happily.

Han Miao stared at Lu Zhao, and began to stutter because he was a little drunk: "No, you shouldn't, you used to drink a lot when I asked you to."

Lu Zhao didn't know how to explain, so he simply didn't explain.

Han Miao began to understand: "Look, it still affects my mood! I tell you, those bastards of the Second Army are just fucking bugs! You tell me, when the fight broke out on the desolate planet last time, which of those guys dared to rush to the front? Wasn't it you and I who were in the front? Well, when we were catching pigs, we couldn't find anyone, but when we were eating meat, they all jumped out!"

"That's right," Huo Cun was also indignant. "At that time, I almost had a fight with these bastards. Damn it, these people with noble connections are fucking rubbish. We joined the army to go to the battlefield, but what about these young men from noble families? They just come here to make money."

Lu Zhao took a piece of food and put it in his mouth. He didn't know what kind of meat it was. It tasted a little bland and not as delicious as Bai Li's.

"I told Lieutenant General Jiang Hao! But Jiang Hao said to me, 'What are you yelling about? What the hell can I do?' I scolded the whole family and they were stunned," Han Miao said clearly, and he cursed even with his big tongue. "Finally, he got angry. At first, he tried to comfort me, but later he cursed more harshly than me!"

"Jiang Hao cursed?" Lu Zhao wanted to laugh.

The main reason was that Jiang Hao looked too elegant, and he usually spoke more elegantly. He also cursed, but compared with the gang of hooligans in the army, it was just like adding some modal particles. It was hard to imagine what Han Miao meant by "cursing more harshly than me".

"Ah," Han Miao took a sip of wine, "I said to him, he said: 'Aren't you also a noble? Why can't you mess with them?' Guess what? Hey, he started to curse, saying: 'How can nobles be the same as nobles? How can you be better than that family?'"

The private room was silent because of this sentence.

Nobles are indeed different from nobles. Even the old nobles like Baili, who have existed since the establishment of the empire, are not as good as them. As for who it is, everyone knows in their hearts. No matter how old-fashioned aristocrats you are, can you compare with the royal family of the empire?

Only Han Miao was left who was drunk and couldn't control his mouth, talking nonsense: "I don't think so. Those guys in the Second and Third Corps are not of the same surname..."

Before he could finish his words, he was punched by Chen Nan. Han Miao held the back of his head to look at his partner's face and said embarrassedly: "Oh, oh, I said I was talking nonsense. Well, I, I am not looking down on those little nobles."

"Don't talk nonsense here," Chen Nan said unhappily, and punched Han Miao twice more, "Isn't Lieutenant General Jiang Hao from a noble family? I see you are quite convinced. Going a step further, isn't Bai Li from a noble family? I heard that day, you alphas were all scared-"

"Don't mention it!" Han Miao was embarrassed. He blushed when he remembered that he didn't move at all under Bai Li's pheromones that day.

Lu Zhao later learned a little about what happened that day from Huo Cun, and he didn't say anything when he heard this.

It just felt that the less he saw Bai Li, the more everyone seemed to mention Bai Li to him.

Han Miao argued: "I don't have a map cannon, I'm just angry! Who knew that Lieutenant General Jiang was even angrier than me?"

"He was not without reason," Chen Nan said while eating, "I entered the logistics department of the First Corps a few years earlier than you, and I have heard a lot of such things. Not to mention you guys, even Jiang Hao and Bai Li have suffered such losses."

Lu Zhao's eyebrows jumped, and before he opened his mouth, he heard Huo Cun came over and said: "Tell us more!"

Chen Nan was about to start gossiping, but suddenly remembered that Lu Zhao and Bai Li were already a family, and looked at Lu Zhao awkwardly.

Normally, Lu Zhao should not continue to ask about this matter, this is Bai Li's private matter. But today, for some reason, Lu Zhao couldn't help but say, "Nothing."

His reply was vague and the other three people couldn't hear it.

"Well, I guess Bai Li has told you about it," Chen Nan put down his chopsticks, poured a glass of wine and took two sips, with a hint of anger on his face, "Didn't that family also send a member of the army to gild before?" He stretched out his hand and pointed upwards, meaning the "that family" above everyone's head, "It's a side branch, but at least it has that surname. I heard that it was this person who gave blind orders and rushed to the rescue mission. A whole boatload of people were not saved, and several lives were lost. It's the same as Major General Bai's..."

Chen Nan paused, and said angrily, and punched Han Miao again: "Fuck."

Han Miao was listening and was hit for no reason: "Hey, why did you hit me?"

"Later, this matter was covered up, and no one was allowed to talk about it or spread it," Chen Nan ignored Han Miao and continued, "I just heard about it. There are too many gossips in the logistics department. I don't know the details. Anyway, not long after that, all the people who participated in the rescue mission were transferred and promoted, and no one mentioned this matter anymore."

After saying that, he punched Han Miao again.

Han Miao was hit and held his head: "Okay, okay, I know I was wrong! I really didn't want to use the map cannon just now. Am I not anxious? Originally, I was thinking about getting a golden Kali flower this year. Lu Zhao has three, and I only have one!"

Huo Cun didn't say anything for a long time. People who heard about this matter felt uneasy. He looked at Lu Zhao several times, but there was still no emotion on the Major General's face, and he just kept playing with the personal terminal in his hand.

"I just heard about it," Chen Nan poured himself another glass of wine, paused, and poured another glass for Lu Zhao, "It's not very pleasant. If Han Miao hadn't been so angry today, I wouldn't have mentioned it. Hey, Bai Li told you in detail, right?"

This time Lu Zhao didn't refuse, and he swallowed a glass of wine, and after a few seconds, he said "hmm".

A notification sound came from the personal terminal, and Master Bai finally replied to his text message.

Bai Li sent an emoticon of a dog head making an "OK" gesture, and attached two words: Waiting for you. There

was a tuft of hair on the dog's head, which reminded Lu Zhao of Bai Li's soft hair that could never be tamed.

Lu Zhao looked at the two words sent by Bai Li, and the wine he drank in his stomach began to evaporate, making him feel uncomfortable.
