Lu Zhai is located in the capital of the empire, covering an area of nearly 1,000 square meters. Compared with Bai Yue's small home, it can almost be called a castle.
Entering the gate, there is a courtyard. Gardeners trim their sleeves all year round, the trees are evergreen, and the flowers bloom.
The central residence is three storeys high.
Lu Shen walked up the stairs and came to the study.
He knocked on the door twice, and after hearing a response from inside, he pushed the door and entered.
Mother was standing in front of the bookshelf, with her back to him, as if she was flipping through books.
Lu Shen didn't bother, but stood quietly by the door.
It wasn't until Mother Lu finished flipping a page of the book and stuffed it back into the bookshelf that she asked aloud, "What do you have to do with me?"
Mother Lu turned around.
She was well maintained and looked in her thirties. The hair is slightly curled and pulled back to the back of the head. The appearance is similar to that of Lu Shen.
It's just a solemn expression and a serious look.
Mother Lu: "I heard that you went out to play? Turn down the entertainment I set for you, where did you go?"
Mother Lu is an efficiencyist. Unless the other party can bring benefits, she will not let her son waste time making friends.
The object of this entertainment is the sons and daughters of the same military family.
In other words, it is also called blind date.
Mother Lu: "You're an adult, it's time to make an Omega lover and get married after graduation."
For people in their family, there is no need to consider economic issues. On the contrary, giving birth to a high-quality offspring as early as possible is also conducive to the growth of their family.
Lu Shen is not interested in these things at all, but he never goes against his mother's wishes, so he nods: "I see."
"I'll give you the contact information later, remember to take the initiative."
Mother Lu said lightly, "You haven't answered the question just now, where have you been?"
Lu Shen paused and replied, "I went to Senior Bai Yue's house."
Bai Yue
Hearing the name, Mother Lu frowned unconsciously.
She heard her husband mention this person and read it on the news, saying that he was a "national hero".
If there is a big age gap with Lu Shen, that's fine. But the two are almost the same age, which will inevitably become a stumbling block for the child's promotion in the future.
Right now, the marshal's term of office is approaching, and a new round of selection is about to take place.
Because of the last time the Zerg was broken, her husband was very vocal.
Mother Lu had already made plans. When her husband left office, Lu Shen could just keep up with him - becoming the youngest and most promising marshal in the history of the empire.
In this way, the Lu family can flourish in her hands. Future generations will enjoy this shade.
When Lu Shen was a child, she started to investigate the children of military families. If threatened, smother in the seedlings.
But after a circle, she found that her own children were the best. The genetic level alone can crush a large area.
Although the son of Sikong's family is also S-rank, he is a dignified son and has a very bad reputation among the elders. She didn't even care.
Who would have thought of killing Cheng Yaojin halfway through. The S+ grade Alpha was born, and it has made so many credits.
And her incompetent son has no sense of crisis at all. Hearing her husband's blows, he chased after his ass like a little follower.
Are you still going home now
Mother Lu's tone was stern: "You should know what we expect from you, how long will you be lazy?"
Lu Shen lowered his head: "I'm very sorry."
Mother Lu: "I don't want to point fingers at your friend circle. But you have to be clear that even if you have a good relationship with that kind of person, it won't do you any good."
"Lu Shen, you should stand at the top and not be covered by the light of others."
Lu Shen: "..."
Growing up, my mother kept saying this, asking him to be "number one" among all.
Although he did it, he had no idea what it meant.
Very boring.
He has been living in a daze. But at least now, I finally understand one thing.
He's not really that persistent about "first". As for what he wants to pursue in the future, he inexplicably feels that as long as he follows Senior Bai Yue, he will find it one day.
Because there is light in the other's eyes. The goal is firm and solid in the direction of hope.
And as long as he looked at it from the side, he felt that his whole body had accumulated strength.
This is not without meaning.
Without hearing the answer, Mother Lu frowned deeper.
Silence means resistance.
She said, "Give me the phone."
Lu Shen looked over.
That's what his mother would always ask of him to make sure he wasn't doing "bad things" in private.
This is also a habitual request for him.
But remember the photos in the phone. This time, he didn't want to do it.
"Resistance" again.
Mother Lu became more and more convinced that the Alpha named Bai Yue was not a good thing, and had a bad influence on her children. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so disobedient.
She suppressed her temper and repeated: "Mobile phone."
The inertia and rebellious emotions that have always been pulling in his heart, Lu Shen stood still.
But seeing her mother's face becoming more and more ugly, in the end, fear prevailed.
He stepped forward and handed the phone over.
Mother Lu took it, and when Lu Shen's face began to look at it.
Chat history, communication history, photos…
The first two are nothing. But when she turned to the photo, Mother Lu's hand couldn't help but stop.
Usually, there are no photos on my son's phone. Occasionally, there are only screenshots of exercises, which are very monotonous.
But now there are a lot of unseen group photos.
The background locations are full of unpopular places. Karaoke, cinema, video game mall…
Noisy and boring, no good except to kill time. Only civilians will go.
The characters in the photo are the kid from Sikong's family. As well as the two students who were born with faces, they were not wealthy because of their clothes.
… and Bai Yue.
Mother Lu recognized this person at a glance. Compared with the "heroic" atmosphere specially created in the news, the photos appear more approachable.
Brows slightly arched, smiling at the camera.
Because she wasn't interested in this person, Mother Lu didn't go out to find information. In the photos I occasionally glanced at, the man's face was expressionless. He looked a little cold and unapproachable.
Seeing the smile at this moment, Mother Lu felt inexplicably familiar with this face.
She kept scrolling back until she stopped at an old photo. When I saw the person in the photo clearly, my finger on the screen couldn't help froze.
After a while, she raised her head: "Who is this person?"
Lu Shen looked at the screen.
This time, it is not the person who was directly photographed, but the photo album. The character in the album is a child with white skin and hair, like a porcelain doll.
"... It's Senior Bai Yue."
Photos of each other as a child.
I thought it was cute, so I took a picture with permission. But the content of the photo is very ordinary, why did the mother have such a big reaction.
Hearing the answer, Mother Lu pursed her lips.
The kid in the photo looks like an Omega no matter how you look at it. The face is round and very similar to the person in her memory - the Omega she hated the most in her life.
Will it be alone. She thought the Omega's child was already dead. How could it appear here, it has even become the biggest threat to her future plans.
Mother Lu put down the phone.
Now, she had to confirm one thing.
Her husband, Admiral Lu, knew about the existence of this child.
Lu Shen failed to get his phone back, so he was kicked out of the study. He was even ordered to stay at home, and he had to stay at home for half a month before returning to school.
This time, he turned down the entertainment and went to Senior Bai Yue's house, without his mother's permission. So Lu Shen planned to go back to school as soon as possible before the other party came back. Who would have thought that he would be caught.
He only cares about one thing now.
"The photo, can you not delete it?"
Mother Lu looked at her child: "If you want to leave a photo, don't get close to 'Bai Yue'."
Lu Shen was startled: "For..."
Mother Lu interrupted: "I should have said, you just need to be obedient, don't ask why."
"You calm down for the past two weeks. If you can't calm down,"
She put the phone on the table, "Although it's a pity, I can only transfer to another school."
Lu Shen: "..."
He closed his eyes: "Yes."
After sending off Lu Shen and the others, Bai Yue stayed at home for about two weeks.
According to the previous agreement, he would take time every day to accompany his brother to train.
Because Bai Yiyan's body is still developing, the amount of training should not be excessive. So in just two weeks, no effect can be seen.
Before leaving, he wrote the training plan and diet plan and handed it over to Bai Yiyan.
"Don't play games all the time. When I come back next time, I'll see your training results."
Bai Yiyan took it. He looked at the familiar handwriting above, and asked after a moment of silence, "Then next time you come back, will it be another year later?"
Bai Yue suddenly didn't know what to say.
Of course he wanted to come back as soon as possible, if possible. But the plan can't keep up with the changes, and the learning and tasks in the future will definitely be more onerous.
And once he graduated from Emperor Yi and entered the military, he would have less time to go home.
He raised his hand and touched his brother's head: "I will do it as soon as possible."
This is another plausible promise.
Bai Yiyan raised his eyes and looked at Bai Yue. Suddenly, he rushed forward, his head slammed into Bai Yue's chest.
Bai Yue was unprepared, and was knocked back by Sheng Sheng.
"It's okay, I don't need you."
He heard his brother say.
After Bai Yiyan finished the collision, he retracted his foot and said, "It doesn't matter at all if my brother isn't here."
"I'm a junior high school student right now, and I'll be going to high school and then college soon."
"Brother, do you have more important things to do now? My parents have me watching, so you don't need to worry at all."
"I don't care what other people say anymore, I just know it."
He paused, as if embarrassed, and lowered the volume.
"... After all, I have such an excellent brother."
Abandoning these words, he ran away quickly.
Bai Yue stood still.
Shang Yufei stood aside and raised his eyebrows: "This kid has changed a lot."
Bai Yue smiled: "I thought he was very similar to you."
"But now it looks like he's much more mature than you."
He still remembered that Shang Yufei was the most rebellious when he first entered junior high school. The whole campus is in charge, with an attitude of not approaching strangers, and just looking at it is enough to kill.
At that time, the fight was not like a small fight like Bai Yiyan. But they are really forming gangs, and they have names for each other.
"What was your name at the time?" Bai Yue recalled, "Luohua Lone Wolf Shang Yufei?"
Shang Yufei didn't expect this stubble to catch on him at all, so he coughed awkwardly: "How do you remember."
Bai Yue looked at each other, his eyes slightly curved: "Of course I will remember about you."
Shang Yufei's ears blush a little, and he looked away a little embarrassedly: "It's better to forget about this kind of thing."
Back to Diyi.
The first-year freshmen entered the campus, and there were many fresh faces on the campus.
Looking at the people coming and going, Bai Yue couldn't help but recall the same scene when he first entered the school last year.
At that time, his skills were very poor, so Mu Sihan would help him train every day.
- This is the first companion I know.
Time flies after that. A year has passed, a lot has happened, and suddenly it seems like nothing has happened.
Not long after returning, Bai Yue was called to the office by Principal Lu.
Principal Lu: "The time for the commendation ceremony has been set."
This time, he not only killed the Zerg, but also saved the presidents of other countries. Everything Bai Yue has done is equivalent to officially putting an end to the Cold War between the Empire and the Federation.
From now on, the two countries will fight side by side and jointly discuss major issues against the enemy and alien race.
Principal Lu smiled and said, "The marshal will also attend the commendation ceremony this time, and personally honor the soldiers who have made contributions in this battle."
Bai Yue: "Yes, I am deeply honored."
"One more thing."
Principal Lu said, "The affairs of the Federation Zerg have almost been dealt with. The president will come over in the next few days to visit the empire in a private name."
Although it is a personal name, the meeting between the leaders of the two countries can be regarded as a major icebreaker.
"There will be an exchange banquet, and both the marshal and the president will be present."
"Bai Yue, you have also been invited."
Principal Lu said, and handed over a letter: "The federal president wants to formally thank you again. You should all be present, right?"
This banquet will attract the attention of both countries at the same time, which is tantamount to the largest and highest level of communication.
Moreover, the President personally invited, there is no reason to refuse.
Bai Yue took the invitation: "I will tell them."
After the business was over, Principal Lu wanted to chat some gossip. These days, because of the federal president's busy schedule, I managed to go back to school with great difficulty.
But just after a few words, I heard the door ring from outside. After the other party knocked on the door, he walked in.
When he saw the person coming, Principal Lu was taken aback and stood up: "Why are you here?"
"Can't I come?"
There was a coldness in the man's voice.
Bai Yue looked over. Entering was a female Omega, elegant and well-dressed. The appearance is somewhat similar to Lu Shen.
Looking at the attitude of the other party when talking to Principal Lu, it was probably Lu Shen's mother.
Since it was his family who came here, Bai Yue felt that it was not good to stay any longer, and said to Principal Lu, "I'm leaving first, and you can call me if you have anything."
He walked out and nodded politely to the woman as he passed Mother Lu.
Mother Lu is also looking at Bai Yue.
Real people look better than videos or photos. Standing tall and straight, Qi Yu is proud. Just looking at the appearance can make people feel good involuntarily.
Maybe it's because of gender differences. Seeing Bai Yue, Mother Lu was not as disgusted as seeing his biological mother.
However, those light gray eyes and pupil color still reminded her of that Omega.
Mother Lu had an arrogant attitude, raised her chin, and did not respond to Bai Yue.
The door is closed.
Principal Lu: "What's the matter with you coming here suddenly?"
Mother Lu came in and looked at the two cups of tea on the coffee table: "It seems that you two get along well."
Principal Lu fell silent.
His wife suddenly came to the door, and he had a bad premonition. Unexpectedly, the other party did not pretend to be installed, and directly pierced the window paper.
"Why, stop talking?" Mother Lu slowly paced to the sofa and sat down. "If I don't take the initiative to find you, how long are you going to hide?"
After accidentally learning the truth from her son, she immediately contacted her husband and wanted to talk to him.
But the other party kept saying that he was busy, and he didn't know if he was really busy or fake. Later, she was too lazy to wait and went directly to the school.
Principal Lu sat back on the sofa.
"I didn't want to hide it from you. But this is a problem of our previous generation, and it has nothing to do with the children."
"It doesn't matter if you say it's irrelevant?" Mother Lu raised her eyebrows, "You raised your illegitimate child so big behind my back, you want me to pretend to be invisible?"
"I've been praising the illegitimate child in front of Lu Shen before. I still don't understand why. Now I finally understand."
She sneered: "Did you expect it long ago? Let the children accept it first, and then bring people into our Lu family logically?"
"Tell you, it's impossible!" The tone became more and more excited.
Principal Lu rubbed his eyebrows.
He dared not tell his wife because he was afraid that such a thing would happen. When he was with Bai Yue's mother, he didn't know Miss Lu's family.
Later, they broke up peacefully and remarried Miss Lu Jia. After that, they lost contact with Bai Yue's mother.
Although he also wanted to know if the other party was doing well. But later investigation found that the other party had already died.
Therefore, he didn't know Bai Yue's existence before. It wasn't until the accidental discovery of the ring on Bai Yue's body that it was determined after a paternity examination.
Principal Lu: "I only found out that Bai Yue is my child not long ago."
He also tried it at the time. But seeing that Bai Yue had no intention of looking for his biological parents, he concealed it.
"He doesn't know at all, and he has no idea of entering our house. Don't think about it."
However, there is no basis for words, and in Mother Lu's view, this explanation is pale and powerless.
She thought that her husband had raised an illegitimate child behind her back, and even entrusted it to an ordinary family, so that she could not investigate any clues.
Principal Lu really couldn't explain it, and finally got a little annoyed: "Then what are you going to do? He doesn't recognize me. Does it affect us at all?"
Mother Lu's mouth curled into a sarcastic smile: "he is your child, of course you don't care. But for me, it's just annoying."
If Bai Yue was an ordinary Omega all his life and stopped appearing in front of her eyes, then she could pretend to be invisible. But now, this person actually intends to climb on top of their Lu family.
Mother Lu knew very well that although Principal Lu chose her, it was not because of love, but because of the power in her family.
However, family background is one of her advantages, and she will not feel inferior because of it. But she has been pampered since she was a child, and when she thinks that the Alpha she fell in love with at first sight still has another person in her heart, she feels extremely jealous and unwilling.
Not to mention, that person also left a child for her husband.
"If I had known, I shouldn't have been soft-hearted..."
Principal Lu was stunned: "What do you mean?"
Mother Lu didn't answer any more and stood up: "I won't let Bai Yue block Lu Shen's way."
"Lu Shen is going to become a marshal in the future." She looked at her husband, her eyes getting colder, "Is it an illegitimate child or the eldest son, you should know who you want to help?"
After Bai Yue left the office, he informed others about the banquet.
When Lu Shen was contacted, the other party never answered the phone. Two consecutive dialing is also busy tone.
Bai Yue put down the phone.
Are you busy
This kind of thing is rare in Lu Shen. Usually, after the first sound, the other party will connect immediately.
"… "
However, Principal Lu should also convey it.
Bai Yue walked towards the direction of the activity room of the picket team.
In a short time, the picket team will select freshmen, and the recommendation list for each grade should have arrived. Not surprisingly, Lu Shen will also be on the list.
However, when he flipped through the list from start to finish, he couldn't find Lu Shen's name.
He asked Cao Xun, "Is that all?"
Cao Xun nodded.
Bai Yue: "Is Lu Shen not here? He is the first in this special enrollment."
Cao Xun also remembered this freshman who performed well in the recommended student exam.
"I went to ask. I heard that he refused, saying that he wanted to focus on his studies."
Focus on learning.
Bai Yue was stunned.
When he asked Lu Shen before, the other party said with a longing look that he would definitely join the picket team. I haven't seen each other for half a month, how could I suddenly change my mind.
Unconsciously, he recalled the woman he had just seen in the office.
I have long heard that Lu Shen's tutoring is strict, but it is hard to tell just by looking at Principal Lu. But Mother Lu is very obvious, she seems to be rigorous and meticulous.
Now I came to school specially, what happened
Bai Yue determined the location of Lu Shen's class and was about to find someone.
On the other side, Mother Lu received a call shortly after leaving the office.
It was the informant she sent.
During this time, she has already investigated a lot of information about Bai Yue.
For example, in addition to the parents, the other party has a younger brother, such as the school he has been studying in, and for example, the other party has undergone secondary differentiation.
She remembered that the child born by that man was an Omega. So when I first learned of Bai Yue's existence, I didn't think about it at all.
And now, everything makes sense.
This time, the informant brought a new piece of information.
"The information was given by a drunkard."
The informant said: "He said that Bai Yue had an Alpha lover. They have been dating since the Omega period, and they didn't break up after the split."
Alpha and Alpha, it's almost a big scandal.
Once it bursts out, the career will definitely be affected. Even a "hero".
No, it may be because he is a "hero" that the public has higher requirements for him.
However, Mother Lu was very cautious.
"Drunk? Is the information credible?"
Informant: "Yes. This person claims to be the father of the client. As long as he gives money, he can testify for us."
What a waste.
However, this is exactly what Mother Lu intended. She asked, "What's that Alpha's name?"
The informant replied: "Shang Yufei."
Mother Lu remembered that Bai Yue was indeed often accompanied by an Alpha, who seemed to be named Shang Yufei.
Her lips curled into a smile.
If the information is true, things get interesting.
