Chapter 33
In the medical area of the Rescue, Lu Chao was wearing pajamas and slippers, with his black hair sticking out and a few strands of hair sticking up to the sky.
"When I woke up, my dad had been kidnapped by 'gangsters' and his whereabouts were unknown. My brother also brought back an Alpha for no apparent reason..." Lu Chao held his head in his hands, his pupils shocked, running back and forth like a wild horse. "You must be kidding! I just slept in!"
Cheng Chi, holding a comb in his hand, chased after Lu Chao with difficulty: "Didn't your brother tell you? That 'gangster' is your father's subordinate. He won't hurt your father. I beg you to comb your hair first. After all, you are the son of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Alliance. Can you please pay attention to your image?"
Zhong Man sat on the sofa, her fingertips rapidly tapping on the virtual keyboard. "I advise you not to bother, Brother Cheng Chi. There's no one else here. Besides, Lu Chao already has a face that looks a lot like Colonel Lu. The hairstyle won't affect his looks, don't worry."
Cheng Chi looked at the boy's messy and confused but still naturally handsome face, and had to admit: "Sister is right - go away!" After saying that, he threw the comb ruthlessly into the corner.
Hearing what the two said, Lu Chao became even more devastated: "Looking as good-looking as my colonel dad is useless. I'd rather he inherited something else for me!"
Lin Zhen, who was passing by, heard this and couldn't help but stop. He said earnestly, "That's very useful. Child, when you grow up, you will find that the treatment of stupid handsome guys and stupid ordinary people in this society is very different."
Lu Chao turned a deaf ear to this. "So you're all telling me that while I was sleeping in, my brother and dad were acting out Mission: Impossible in the enemy camp, rescuing agents, teasing the villains, and having a crazy show? Help me, how much important plot did I miss!"
Zhong Man jokingly said, "That's true. But let me ask you, is the drama you stayed up all night watching any good?"
Lu Chao: “…………”
"Mr. Lu, please try to be quiet." Doctor Renee said, her index finger against her lips. "There's a patient resting in the bed."
Lu Chao looked towards the bed and said numbly, "Come on, I don't think the patient can be quiet at all."
Jiang Mu sat beside the bed and considerately peeled an apple for the injured major.
After Gu Xingzhou swore that he would never dare to "take care of" Foreign Minister Jiang, Jiang Mu's attitude towards him improved a lot.
"You look less than 30 years old, so why are you and my father's good brothers?" Jiang Mu asked puzzledly, "When my father died in the line of duty, you were probably no more than 10 years old, right?"
Gu Xingzhou's eyes wandered: "Well... Colonel Lu and I are close friends regardless of age."
"I understand, uncle." Jiang Mu said thoughtfully, "You mean, my father is someone who is willing to be brothers with elementary school students?"
"...Or maybe you should just address me by my rank," Major Gu said with remorse, having deceived the child. "Although I'm only a major right now, I think I should be promoted to lieutenant colonel soon. Wait, I think my estimate was too conservative..."
This time, he not only completed the task assigned to him by the Intelligence Bureau, but also cooperated with Colonel Lu to successfully steal Colonel Lu's "body", thereby gaining a higher negotiating position for Foreign Minister Jiang.
Of the 20,000 tons of crystal core samples that Foreign Minister Jiang took from Olin, at least one-fifth was his credit.
Isn't it reasonable to give this a first-class merit?
Gu Xingzhou slapped his thigh excitedly: "Now that I think about it, maybe I can be promoted directly to colonel!"
Jiang Mu said with a headache: "Major Gu, you really talk a lot... Can you answer my question first?"
At this time, the door of the medical area slid open to both sides, and Yi Laizhe and Morris walked in behind a male Alpha.
Alpha was wearing a dark green military uniform. His face was firm and angular. Under his thick black eyebrows were a pair of extremely intimidating eyes. He was like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath, and he exuded a solemn and dignified aura when he walked.
——Osvid Gavin, Lieutenant General, and also the commander-in-chief of the three CY6 battleships.
"There's still no news about Commander Lu's body?" Osvid asked Yi Laizhe.
Seventeen years after Lu Huai's death, there are still some high-ranking military officials who call Colonel Lu "Sir", and Osvid is one of them.
Yi Laizhe said, "Not yet, General."
Yi Laizhe first met Osvid at the wedding of Foreign Minister Jiang and Colonel Lu.
At that time, Osvid was still a taciturn second lieutenant who followed Colonel Lu. He only knew how to quietly help Colonel Lu block the wine. After getting half drunk, he was pulled to the stage by President Fu to give a speech. His face flushed and he couldn't help but choke for a long time before he could only say: "I wish the newlyweds a baby soon."
Osvid stopped and looked at one of the "noble sons" who was still breaking down and going crazy. He said in a deep voice, "What about Foreign Minister Jiang?"
"The 'criminals' who took Foreign Minister Jiang away didn't tell us the expected rendezvous point ahead of time," Morris said. "I'm afraid we'll need to find Foreign Minister Jiang on our own, or wait for him to bring him back."
Osvid said, "It can't wait."
The military knew nothing about the mysterious agent who took Foreign Minister Jiang away, and was unable to determine whether the agent had the ability to protect Foreign Minister Jiang.
The longer Foreign Minister Jiang is away, the more dangerous it becomes.
"Um, sir." Gu Xingzhou raised a hand weakly, "I think I should know where Foreign Minister Jiang was taken by the 'criminals'."
Everyone's attention was instantly focused on Gu Xingzhou.
Lu Chao's hair stood up even higher in shock: "No, big brother, you knew why didn't you tell me earlier?!"
"Because the 'criminal' didn't tell me where he planned to take Foreign Minister Jiang," Gu Xingzhou said, "but I think it's most likely there. Otherwise, why would he clean up the place so cleanly?"
Gu Xingzhou watched as Colonel Lu blew his whistle and cleaned the base.
He asked Colonel Lu in confusion: "We are all Alphas, is there any need to act like this?"
Colonel Lu only said, "Yes, in case my wife wants to come."
——
After a night of silence, the shantytowns gradually resumed the hustle and bustle of life in the early morning.
No miner could resist a hot breakfast before heading deep into the cold, oxygen-deprived ice.
A long line formed in front of the small shop selling corn soup. The thick soup bubbling away, the aroma of butter mixed with the sweet fragrance of corn wafting through the air, always reminding me of a warm homeland far away on another planet.
Lu Huai walked back with two servings of freshly cooked soup. He had tasted the corn soup from this restaurant before, and he thought Jiang Yun would like it.
The Alpha, who had not slept all night, looked radiant and did not show any signs of fatigue or sleepiness after staying up all night.
Yes, Jiang Yun kept him awake all night last night.
After seventeen years, he once again got the chance to spend the night alone with Jiang Yun, and then... He and Jiang Yun chatted in the tent all night, and the topic was all about him.
Jiang Yun seemed to be very concerned about the fact that "children often ask questions about you, and I can't answer them." After chatting with him about brothers and childhood, and then about childhood and adolescence, he asked him to express his opinions of more than 500 words on each type of mecha.
It's inexplicable, extremely annoying, and so cute.
What is the difference between Foreign Minister Jiang, who is described as strong and cold by outsiders, and classmate Jiang Yun seventeen years ago?
He didn't need to go out to buy breakfast, as they still had plenty of food left. But Jiang Yun felt that his staying in the tent was interfering with his writing of the summary, so he kicked him out.
When passing by the Central Tavern, Lu Huai noticed that there were many more searching troops on the street.
These troops were all wearing Alliance uniforms, and their actions were obviously more efficient and low-key than the previous Olin army, and they hardly disturbed the normal lives of the miners.
It seems that the alliance has successfully seized the right to station troops on the Ice Star, and the army has landed smoothly, moving faster than he imagined.
Next to an armored vehicle, Lu Huai found a familiar figure - Osvid Gavin.
Seventeen years have passed, and the second lieutenants who used to follow him and always say "Yes, sir" have all become generals of the Interstellar Alliance.
Judging from the extra wrinkles at the corners of Oswald's eyes, this guy must have devoted all his energy to his work over the years.
He originally expected Osvid to find this place tomorrow, but now he came so quickly, most likely because Gu Xingzhou told him the specific location of the base.
What a pity, he was still thinking about whether he could get closer to Jiang Yun tonight. Now, thanks to Osvid and Gu Xingzhou, the time he and his wife spent alone was reduced by one day and one night.
Thank you so much, brothers.
But it would be better to go back early, as he didn't want Jiang Yun to suffer outside with him for another day.
Lu Huai quickened his pace and returned to the tent. Jiang Yun was still typing away on his computer, just as he had been when he left. He showed no sign of acknowledging his return.
Thinking about Jiang Yun returning to the Rescue and being surrounded by a large group of people busy all day, Lu Huai narrowed his eyes and called his wife's name, which was rare: "Jiang Yun."
Jiang Yun sat at the table, his fingertips pausing as he said, "Speak."
Lu Huai looked down at his Omega, his voice slightly cold: "I told you 'I love you' yesterday, why didn't you react at all, huh?"
Colonel Lu's aura is too strong. When he doesn't restrain himself, he always gives people a sense of oppression as if he is doing something light.
But this feeling of oppression from the top Alpha had no effect on Jiang Yun.
Because he knew that Lu Huai would never be really angry with him, and he only acted arrogantly to make him obey.
Wasn’t this the same trick Lu Huai used to use when he didn’t allow him to eat fried chicken when his stomach was upset?
Jiang Yun calmly turned off his computer and looked at Lu Huai. "What reaction does Colonel Lu want from me?"
Lu Huai said: "Of course I hope you can be the same as before."
In the past, when Jiang Yun was told "I love you", no matter how shy he was, he would always respond enthusiastically: "I love Colonel Lu too!"
Jiang Yun's thoughts were the same as before: "Colonel Lu has already pointed a gun at me, and he still has the nerve to say he loves me?"
Lu Huai: “…”
Jiang Yun: "Colonel Lu, do you want to hear me talk about this?"
Lu Huai raised his eyebrows: "That's all right, didn't I tell you in advance not to use this trick?"
Jiang Yunyun said calmly: "You did say that, but I didn't promise you."
"If you still keep your word after I told you, then what does my prediction mean?"
"Are you clever?"
Lu Huai chuckled, "Alright, drink the soup. I'll go clean up." Lu Huai walked towards the corner where the supplies were stored. As he passed by Jiang Yun, he casually touched his head. "They're here to pick you up. Go back and be the foreign minister, baby."
