Lin You's return has been making headlines in major news outlets for the past week.
The place where he stayed was arranged by the Union Government. Different seniors came to visit him every day. All of them were highly respected old seniors, and all of them were generals with many merits. Some were still in office, and some had already retired.
The three people who visited him most frequently were Yang, Jiang and Peng. Alx also wanted to go, but he was the president after all, and he had a different schedule every day.
The alliance had bestowed many honors on Lin You before he came back, and now that he is back, these honors accompany him.
People are full of curiosity about Lin You, and they hope every day that he will do a live broadcast to talk about his life in recent years, or have an interview. Unfortunately, Lin You’s schedule is not arranged because he is too busy.
No, busy, busy, his planned comeback party began.
Reporters were arranged, and they had nothing to do with entertainment reporters, they were all serious reporting types.
Two days before the banquet, Lin Zimao was picked up by Lin You.
He said that he would introduce Lin Zimao to everyone at the banquet and that he would inherit Lin You's mantle in the future.
He had been busy all this time trying to integrate Youlin Star, give it more protection, and turn it into a place that was impervious to water and fire while they were still here.
Lin You put a bow tie on Lin Zimao: "Our boy is getting more and more handsome. Take a look in the mirror."
The clothes were prepared by Jiang Xuan. In fact, Lin You also prepared several sets for him, but in the end, Lin Zimao was allowed to choose by himself. He did not mention it. After all, the child would definitely leave him in the future and would have his own way to go.
Lin Zimao said, "But he's not as handsome as my dad. I saw you coming down from the starship a few days ago. You looked so cool."
Lin You chuckled: "You will be more handsome than me in the future."
Lin Zimao was wearing a white evening dress today, while Lin You was wearing a white military uniform. These were made overnight according to his measurements by the Alliance after he returned to the Alliance, and they fit him perfectly.
He thought that Lin You in military uniform should be as handsome as he is now. Oh, no, he might have had something else at that time that Lin Zimao couldn't see now.
After watching Lin You being visited by the bigwigs of the alliance for many days, Lin Zimao was calmer than anyone else. Perhaps it was because he had never lived on Feige Star, so the feelings were not that deep.
As the time for the banquet drew closer, Lin Zimao felt nervous for no reason. He was not nervous about facing an unknown stranger, but because he always felt that Lin You was paving a way out for him.
As he was walking towards the banquet hall, Lin Zimao suddenly stopped him and said, "Can I not go?"
Lin You patted the back of his head and said, "No, accompany me to meet these people today, and then you will be free to do whatever you want."
Lin Zimao pouted: "Then can we go back to Youlin Star? I miss home."
Lin You's eyes were full of doting: "Okay."
The adjutant came to urge them, saying that the time was almost up and it was time to go downstairs.
Lin Zimao took a deep breath, in fact, he had met several important figures, so he was not nervous. He was only worried about Lin You. They needed to have a good talk, but he knew that Lin You deliberately did not mention the matter of returning to Feige Star to him. He said too few things, but did a lot of things. You have to make up for all that you have lost over the years.
The light fell on Lin You, and Lin Zimao stood behind him.
Standing at the bottom of the stairs were all people of status and position in the alliance, as well as various aristocratic families. They all came here for Lin You's fame.
Lin You spoke: "Thank you all for taking the time to attend this dinner..."
After saying a few words, Lin You pulled Lin Zimao to his side: "Let me introduce you to everyone, this is my son Zimao..."
He is Lin You's son.
This is what Lin You said.
The reporters who arrived today kept taking photos, determined to capture the scene of Lin You introducing his son.
Everyone understood that Lin You was paving the way for his son.
Then, Lin You took Lin Zimao towards the crowd, and everyone, whether they knew them or not, came over to toast them.
Jiang Qi also came with Jiang Xuan, and Ji Chen was also brought here by his grandfather.
Today was also a magical banquet, with grandparents and grandchildren attending together, a group of elderly people and a group of young people.
It’s like a handover ceremony between the old and the young.
Everyone found it very fresh.
The parents of Miao Miao and others have also come. They are all Lin You’s subordinates. Now the little ones are flying all over the field.
Jiang Xuan supported Jiang Qi and walked over.
It’s really hard to calculate this generation.
Jiang Qi smiled, after all, he got the upper hand: "I didn't expect that many years later, we would become relatives."
Lin You laughed: "As long as they like it."
Lin Zimao blinked at Jiang Xuan. After turning around, he actually wrote down all the people Lin You introduced to him. His brain was tired, more tired than memorizing a thick book. Interpersonal relationships were the most annoying thing in the world. Lin Zimao didn't like this model. The whole process revealed a hypocritical atmosphere, which was completely different from the way they lived on Youlin Star.
In this incompatible atmosphere, Lin You knew that he was not adapting well, so he let him and Jiang Xuan go to rest. He and Jiang Qi found a place to sit down and chat. They had not met many times recently and had endless topics to talk about.
Lin Zimao breathed a sigh of relief. He loved sticking to Lin You, but this was not the case in this kind of occasion. He was a little resistant and just wanted to be a free person. This feeling was too restrictive.
Jiang Xuan asked him to take some snacks and fed him a piece of cake: "Is it sweet?"
Lin Zimao ate the cake from his hand: "It's okay, you don't want to eat it?"
Jiang Xuan said, "I ate something before coming here, so I'm not too hungry."
The two of them had hardly ever been apart, but this time they were suddenly separated for two days. Although they had video calls, they still missed each other because they hadn't seen each other. Jiaoyan was not with Lin Zimao either.
Lin Zimao sat next to him, feeling extremely tired, both mentally and physically.
Feeling that Lin Zimao was not in high spirits, Jiang Xuan pressed his waist and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lin Zimao said lazily: "I don't like this kind of atmosphere, it doesn't fit in." He knew that this was the adult world.
Jiang Xuan nodded: "I don't like it either. My parents often took me there when I was a kid, but later I said I didn't like it, so they stopped taking me out and enjoyed their free time."
Lin Zimao curled his lips and said, "But Lin You introduced me to those people. I felt like he was paving the way for me."
In fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see Lin You’s plan: “I can see it.”
"I think he has long wanted to give up his responsibilities and let me take over everything so that he can go on his own." Lin Zimao said with a sour feeling in his heart.
Jiang Xuan followed his words and said, "It's possible. After all, he has shouldered so many responsibilities for so many years, and he wants to take a break. My great grandfather has also wanted to retire for a long time, but his superiors won't let him because of his prestige." Lin Zimao couldn't be allowed to remain depressed at this time, so he lowered his voice and whispered in his ear, "I heard from my great grandfather that the matter has almost been concluded, and now we are just waiting for someone to jump out."
Lin Zimao was quite concerned about this matter, and Lin You also mentioned it to him.
It's a pity that I can't catch the person myself.
Who could it be
Since Jiang Qi told Jiang Xuan, it means it has nothing to do with the Jiang family. So is it Alx or the other two
During the banquet, many people wanted to chat with Lin You. Even if they couldn't say anything, it was good to just see him.
Lin Zimao looked at Lin You several times and found that Lin You seemed to have lost a lot of weight recently.
The banquet time was limited, and although Lin Zimao was introduced by Lin You, the matter between him and Jiang Xuan was not made public. On the one hand, it was because of Jiang Qi, and on the other hand, Lin You did not want the media to disturb the two little ones.
Lin You also communicated with the media. He disclosed Lin Zimao's appearance to the public and only mentioned that he was present with his son, but did not disclose their photos.
He is really sweet.
No, people who are invited to the banquet basically don't talk nonsense. They don't want to be bothered by the media. Today's reporters are also very sensible. They do whatever they are told and will never make the big shots unhappy.
The banquet ended successfully and Jiang Xuan and Jiang Qi left together.
Ji Chen reluctantly parted with Miao Miao.
After Lin Zimao returned to the rest area, he found that Lin You, who was sitting in the rest area, looked very pale, and his adjutant was giving him water and medicine.
He ran over, put his hand on Lin You's arm, and said with a tense face: "What's wrong with you?"
He seldom saw Lin You taking medicine. He often checked his body and always found nothing wrong. But now, he saw that Lin You was in the state of a patient.
Lin You smiled weakly, and it seemed that even raising his eyes was very strenuous for him: "I'm fine, don't worry about me."
Lin Zimao was very angry: "You call this nothing? Tell me, did you live in a nursing home before?"
He didn't want to reveal the answer, but Lin You's current physical condition really made him nervous, or to be more precise, he was at a loss.
The adjutant was anxious: "Young Master, the general..."
Lin You raised his hand: "Okay, stop covering up for me. He already knew it, but he just didn't say it."
Lin Zimao clenched his fists in anger, but he was afraid of hurting Lin You, as Lin You must be very vulnerable now.
His eyes were red: "What's wrong with you?"
Lin You raised her hand and rubbed his hair. When she was a child, she liked to rub the top of her child's head the most because it was so soft. Later, when she grew up, the child didn't like to have long hair, so she cut her hair into a buzz cut. It felt prickly to the touch, but Lin You had calluses on his hands, so she didn't feel it was too prickly and it still felt good to touch.
Probably because he was the child he raised.
Lin You said, "Let's go back and talk about it."
He now lives in a house arranged by the alliance, but he doesn't want to live there.
He has his own place.
The adjutant took Lin You and Lin Zimao away from here and quietly escorted them to the other side.
During the twenty-minute drive, Lin Zimao and Lin You didn't say a word. Lin You was a little tired, but Lin Zimao didn't dare to ask.
After arriving at Lin You's residence, several doctors came forward to examine him and gave him an injection.
Lin Zimao felt uncomfortable when he smelled the medicine.
Seeing that Lin You's face was pale just now but is slowly recovering now, Lin Zimao's face is finally not so tense anymore.
Adjutants Lin You and Lin Zimao brought two bowls of carefully prepared nutritious porridge. Although Lin Zimao had no appetite, he still finished it because Lin You said that watching him eat would make him hungry. He also slowly finished the porridge.
Lin Zimao helped him sit on the chair.
Lin You comforted him: "I'm not that delicate."
Lin Zimao didn't listen to him: "What's going on? Weren't you fine before?"
Lin You asked him to sit down: "It's time to tell you, it's not a big deal, I just traveled around a lot in the early years, my health is a little worse than my peers, and suddenly all the illnesses I had before came to me."
Lin Zimao said with a stern face: "Tell me the truth." Lin You said it too lightly.
Lin You blinked at him and said, "It's true, but I age faster than others. Don't worry, son. I'm actively receiving treatment."
The adjutant couldn't stand it anymore and interrupted: "Master, the general is suffering from space syndrome."
The aftereffects of space are actually poisoning, and unknown substances are corroding Lin You's body.
