Chapter 52
Jiang Yun woke up in the afternoon.
He remembered that he fell asleep on the bed, but now he was lying in Lu Huai's arms, and Lu Huai was sitting on the sofa.
He was still wearing Lu Huai's military jacket.
It seemed that Lu Huai carried him wherever he went.
He didn't know how long he slept exactly, but it must have been a very long time.
It lasted so long that Lu Huai couldn't bear the thirst anymore and carried him out of bed.
Lu Huai took out a drink from the refrigerator, sat down on the sofa nearby, held Jiang Yun in one hand, opened the bottle of drink with the other hand, and drank it in one gulp.
Jiang Yun moved slightly in Lu Huai's arms, and Lu Huai immediately noticed it.
"Awake?" Lu Huai asked, "Did you sleep well?"
Jiang Yun hummed sleepily.
He hadn't felt this deep sleep for a long time.
The body becomes exceptionally light, and the nerves that have been tense for years get a rare relaxation during sleep.
He vaguely remembered that he had a dream, but he couldn't remember what he dreamed about.
He had thought he wouldn't be able to get used to the feeling of having another person by his pillow. Now it seemed he should change his single bed as soon as possible.
Lu Huai touched Jiang Yun's cheek with a water-beaded beverage bottle and asked, "Are you thirsty? Do you want a drink?"
The refreshing aroma of the iced carbonated drink gave Jiang Yun the illusion of waking up from a nap in midsummer.
It turns out that Lu Huai likes to drink carbonated drinks in the summer... He just found out.
Jiang Yun was dazed for a moment, then slowly sat up in her husband's arms and said, "When I was your age, I had already lost interest in unhealthy drinks."
After Jiang Yun finished speaking, he couldn't help but frowned.
Why is his voice so hoarse?
It's all Lu Huai's fault.
Lu Huai laughed at him: "Hey, now that you're sober, you're acting like an older man again."
Lu Huai turned on the light and poured Jiang Yun a glass of boiled water. He even inserted a straw into the cup and said, "Is this okay?"
Jiang Yun didn't think much about it. He held the cup of water in both hands, lowered his head, and sipped it through the straw. Lu Huai beside him couldn't help but chuckle.
Halfway through drinking, Jiang Yun's communicator rang.
The special ringing pattern told Jiang Yun that this was a video call request from Jiang Mu.
Jiang Yun opened his military uniform jacket, took a look at his miserable body, raised his hand and touched the corner of his lips that had not yet subsided, and decisively handed the communicator to Lu Huai: "Help me answer it."
Lu Huai saw through Jiang Yun's thoughts and said with a smile: "Not really, what's the big deal about you meeting Jiang Mu like this? The children are so old now. When I was their age, I would have already..."
Jiang Yun narrowed his eyes in displeasure.
Under Jiang Yun's cold gaze, Lu Huai calmly finished the second half of his sentence: "...I've already taken the physiology class."
"You've reminded me that they really should learn more about this," Jiang Yun said thoughtfully. "After they separate, we can ask their Alpha father to give them detailed science and sex education on this matter."
Lu Huai raised his eyebrows and took Jiang Yun's communicator. "No problem."
Lu Huai was about to connect the video call when Jiang Yun stopped him again, "Wait."
Lu Huai was only wearing a pair of trousers, with his upper body naked. There were teeth marks on his front shoulder and scratches on his back.
These cannot be seen by children either.
Jiang Yun said: "Put on your clothes first."
The "rebellious" young Alpha pretended not to hear and said as he walked out, "Why is it so hot on this island? No wonder streaking is not illegal here."
Jiang Yun was a little anxious. He stepped barefoot on the clean floor and chased after him, ignoring his sore waist and weak legs. "Lu Huai, put on your clothes before you video chat with your son!"
Jiang Yun was afraid that his sons would be taught bad habits, so his fatherly instincts erupted and he easily caught up with the tall Alpha.
He replied to his son, "Wait a moment," dragged Lu Huai to the cloakroom, took out a suit he had prepared for Lu Huai in advance, and said, "Put it on."
Lu Huai refused to cooperate with Jiang Yun's work, saying, "You're going to kill me with heat."
While Jiang Yun was secretly cursing what was so good about young and immature Alphas, he condescended to help Lu Huai put on his shirt, button up his shirt, and even tied a tie for him, making Lu Huai look like he was going to meet the president.
After doing all this, Jiang Yun checked her husband up and down several times, and after confirming that he was dressed appropriately and looked very handsome, she finally nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, go see the child."
The Alpha couldn't help but laugh out loud after his evil plan succeeded. He put his arm around his wife's waist and kissed her on the top of her head. "Oh my god, you're so adorable."
Jiang Yun pushed Lu Huai away and took a step back cautiously.
After doing it a few times, he was a little afraid of Lu Huai praising him.
As soon as Lu Huai praises him, he will sleep with Lu Huai.
He really can't take it anymore.
Besides, an Omega of his age and position is not worthy of such praise.
After regaining his identity, Lu Huai immediately told the twins. Jiang Mu contacted the fathers this time to ask when they would return home and to report his brother.
Lu Huai smiled and said, "You ask this because you miss your father?"
Jiang Mu nodded obediently: "I did think about it a little."
Jiang Yun started to arrange the return trip without saying a word.
Although Lu Huai missed his sons very much, he also wanted to stay on Jinmastu Island with Jiang Yun for a few more days.
So, his father, who had just graduated from military school a few years ago, came up with a brilliant idea: "Why don't you just stop going to school and come to the island to play with us for a week."
In a direction Jiang Mu couldn't see, Jiang Yun sent Lu Huai a condemning look: "Do you want to listen to what you are saying? Is this something the father of a high school student can say?"
Lu Huai shrugged, looking very open-minded: "Their grades are very stable anyway. Missing a few days of classes won't affect whether they get first or last place in the exam."
Jiang Yun: “…” It seems to be true.
Jiang Mu snorted coldly and said, "Lu Chao won't want to go. He just wants no one to bother him. He was so happy every day when you were away. Now I don't know where he and his gang of brothers are going to hang out."
Lu Huai said, "Let's ignore him for now. Do you want to come?"
"No, I still have to prepare for the monthly exam." Jiang Mu said sympathetically, "Father, you should stay with me on the island for a few more days to rest. Don't forget to call Lu Chao and give him a good scolding so that he can hurry home and review his lessons."
Lu Huai was extremely pleased with his eldest son's obedience and understanding. "Don't worry, I will definitely scold him."
Jiang Yun personally supervised Lu Huai after he finished training his youngest son, and said to Lu Huai, "I'll be home tomorrow."
"Then there's only one night left." Lu Huai said with great regret, "Can't we leave the day after tomorrow?"
Jiang Yun returned to bed and fell back to sleep: "If it's one day later, our little son will become a street urchin."
"Then why don't you just stay in bed all the time?" Lu Huai walked to the window and quickly opened the curtains. "Look how nice the weather is outside. Let's go out and play for the last half day. Let's go eat something first, and then buy some gifts for the children."
When Jiang Yun was twenty years old, he was the type of person who was both naive and playful.
During their honeymoon, no matter how miserable Jiang Yun was at night, he always insisted on going to the amusement park the next day.
If he really couldn't walk, he would act coquettishly and ask Lu Huai to carry him to the car.
In contrast, Jiang Yun is now lying peacefully on the bed, his hands folded outside the quilt, with a look of peace and tranquility on his face.
"I'm sorry, I'm too old to play." Jiang Yun closed his eyes and said, "Colonel Lu wants to play, please find Lieutenant Colonel Gu who is the same age as you. I'm sorry I can't accompany you."
Lu Huai threw back the quilt and got into bed, pressing the quilt against Jiang Yun. He said condescendingly, "I'm warning you, Jiang Yun, if you bring up your age again, I'll call you a baby in front of my sons."
Jiang Yun struggled to hide, but also wanted to laugh: "Don't press me down, you're so heavy... Lu Huai!"
After the swelling on his lips subsided, Jiang Yun was finally willing to go out and see people.
Lu Huai helped Jiang Yun put on his clothes, pants, socks and shoes, and half-seriously asked Jiang Yun if he wanted to rent a wheelchair so that he could push him out to play. As expected, he was sternly rejected by Foreign Minister Jiang.
As soon as she leaves the private space where she is alone with her husband, Jiang Yun turns back into the taciturn, cold and strong diplomat she used to be.
Jiang Yun was used to being stared at with awe, covetousness, or suspicion in public; he was also used to being able to turn the noise into silence immediately wherever he went.
When Jiang Yun walked into the hotel's buffet restaurant, a stunned silence quickly spread among the crowd, starting from the moment the first guest saw his face.
After a brief silence, the guests began to talk again as if nothing had happened, and no one seemed to care too much about the arrival of this beauty.
Only the faint afterglow, hidden by the absent-minded chat, would occasionally fall on the figure with a cold color.
Until another tall figure suddenly broke into their sight.
The young Alpha walked beside the Omega, his own brilliance surprisingly undimmed by his companion's beauty. His steps were relaxed and natural, with a certain casual tension that perfectly mitigated the alienation of the beautiful woman.
The cool and warm tones flow and blend silently, unexpectedly forming an extremely harmonious picture.
Even guests who don’t recognize these two faces will only guess that “they must be a couple.”
Some of the attention gathered on Omega shifted to Alpha, and then quietly dispersed in amazement and regret.
Gu Xingzhou, who was showing off his top-quality steak, witnessed this scene with his own eyes. After being stunned for a long time, he blurted out "Oh my God".
Lu Huai saw Gu Xingzhou and walked over with Jiang Yun.
Gu Xingzhou stared at the two people holding hands, stunned and dumbfounded.
"What's your reaction?" Lu Huai pulled out the dining chair for Jiang Yun and glanced at Gu Xingzhou. "Have you ever seen a normal couple go out to eat together?"
Gu Xingzhou didn't know how to describe how he felt now.
He has met Foreign Minister Jiang and Colonel Lu.
He had also seen the scene of Colonel Lu standing next to Foreign Minister Jiang with the face of [lover].
But before today, he had never seen these two chosen ones truly stand in the public eye as husband and wife.
Like most people, Gu Xingzhou was once amazed by Foreign Minister Jiang's beauty.
But that kind of amazement was far less than the shock he felt now when he saw the couple appear at the same time.
It turns out that this is what Foreign Minister Jiang and Colonel Lu look like when they are together.
Gu Xingzhou looked at the picture of the two of them together, and a thousand words were condensed into two words: "——A perfect match!"
Gu Xingzhou was amazed but also a little confused.
Logically speaking, Colonel Lu is more than ten years younger than Foreign Minister Jiang, but when he stands next to Foreign Minister Jiang, he doesn't look much younger than him.
If it was another handsome Alpha in his early twenties, like myself, who pulled out the chair for Foreign Minister Jiang, passers-by would definitely think he was Foreign Minister Jiang's subordinate.
But Colonel Lu's actions only gave people the feeling that they were evenly matched, as if he was born to be Jiang Yun's husband.
How did Colonel Lu do it?
Something like aura is something that ordinary people really can't learn.
Jiang Yun sat down diagonally opposite Gu Xingzhou, waiting for Colonel Gu to start his chatterbox mode.
However, Gu Xingzhou didn't know what he had eaten today. He was speechless after saying just two words, without any fighting spirit at all.
Jiang Yun waited for a long time but received no follow-up. He pulled up a photo of the bionic man that Lu Huai had taken from his brain computer and asked Gu Xingzhou nonchalantly, "Are they more compatible, or are we more compatible now?"
Lu Huai looked at Jiang Yun's expressionless profile and chuckled.
Poor Lieutenant Colonel Gu looked at the 21-year-old Foreign Minister Jiang and the 25-year-old Colonel Lu in the photo, then looked at the 24-year-old Colonel Lu and the 37-year-old Foreign Minister Jiang in front of him, and immediately broke out in a sweat.
No...Foreign Minister Jiang, if you have a life-threatening question, just ask your own Alpha. Why are you asking me, a single Alpha!
Gu Xingzhou forced a smile and said, "They both are a good match." Without waiting for Jiang Yun to ask again, Gu Xingzhou stood up and said, "Well, I have an appointment with the governor to play cards tonight, so I'll be leaving first."
Lieutenant Colonel Gu almost fled in panic, forgetting even to take the car keys that were left on the dining table.
Lu Huai sighed and commented concisely, "Excellent food."
The restaurant's chef was informed of Jiang Yun and Lu Huai's identities and prepared two special set meals for them.
As usual, the appetizer bread was served first. The caramel-colored surface and the aroma of butter and wheat mixed together set the stage for today's dinner for two.
Lu Huai's eyes moved slightly, and he looked at Jiang Yun picking up a small piece of soft bread, with a hesitant look on his face.
Then Jiang Yun opened his lips and took a bite of the bread.
Lu Huai's tense shoulders sank slightly.
Jiang Yun swallowed the bread and said lightly, "It tastes good."
Lu Huai looked at him, his eyes bright and deep, and seemed a little sad.
Jiang Yun suddenly couldn't understand Lu Huai's look.
He thought for a moment, pushed the bread basket in front of Lu Huai, and asked, "Do you want to try it?"
Lu Huai did not answer his question and did not move his hands.
He just lowered his eyes and sighed softly, saying: "I really love you, Jiang Yun."
