Chapter 8: Childhood sweetheart (3)

Views:

At General Byron's house, Claire checked the score and the admission list online, and saw that he only scored 80 points in the test. He couldn't help but feel very disturbed. If his strict father found out about this score, he might reprimand him severely. pause.

Mrs. Grace was preparing dinner by herself in the kitchen. Seeing her son walking beside her with his head down, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Have you got your test results?"

Claire nodded: "Well, I passed the exam."

Grace asked, "How much did you score?"

Claire was silent for a moment before whispering, "80 points."

"..." Mrs. Grace, who heard the result, turned her head in surprise, looked at the dejected child in front of her, frowned, and said, "Why is the test so low? If I remember correctly, the full score of St. Paul's College's test paper should be 150. share?"

Claire hung her head and said nothing, her little hands clenched tightly.

Grace knelt down and rubbed his head, and said softly, "Tell mom, what's wrong?"

Claire then explained: "I was too sleepy at noon today, and fell asleep. When I woke up and logged into the exam system, there was only half an hour left, and the questions were not finished."

Grace: "…"

So, the real reason why little Claire got so low in the test was—oversleeping.

Grace pressed her temples with some headaches, and warned: "You must not let your father know this reason. Your father hates people who are not punctual the most. If you oversleep in exams, he will definitely be very angry."

Claire nodded obediently: "Well, I won't tell him."

That night, General Byron rarely returned home. The serious-looking middle-aged man was wearing a neat dark blue military uniform and white gloves on his hands. The four golden stars on his shoulders represented that he was one of the few nobles in the empire. He is a four-star general, and the pattern of stars and the moon on the brim of his hat is the symbol of the Star Legion he leads.

Mrs. Grace cooked the kitchen herself today because she received the news in advance that her husband would be home for dinner tonight, so she made preparations very early. As soon as General Byron entered the door, she greeted him and helped him take off his heavy military coat and hang it up. She smiled and said, "The general is back? I have prepared your favorite dishes. Please come to the restaurant for dinner."

Although the two are husband and wife, Grace respects her husband very much, and she is used to speaking with honorifics, but she seems unfamiliar.

General Byron glanced at her and asked, "Where's Claire?"

Little Claire poked her head out from behind her mother and obediently called out, "Father, I'm here."

General Byron said blankly, "You scored 80 on the entrance exam, didn't you?"

A drop of cold sweat instantly flowed from the foreheads of the mother and son.

As a military general, General Byron is really well informed. Seeing that she couldn't hide it, Claire could only whisper, "Yes, I accidentally filled in the wrong answer."

Byron looked at him seriously: "Out of 150 points, can you accidentally fill in 70 questions wrong? How dare you make up excuses to lie to me?"

Claire immediately admitted her mistake and lowered her head: "Father... I was wrong."

Byron looked at the big golden head in front of him, frowned, and said, "No matter why you failed the test, I don't bother to pursue what has happened, but let me tell you, Claire, if you count down again after arriving at school, I will You will be transferred immediately."

Claire hurriedly said, "Understood."

Only then Byron nodded: "You are still young now, so there is no need to mind this kind of exam too much, but I hope you can perform well in the unified exam for the entire empire when you are 18 years old, and you will be admitted to the commanding officer of the San Romia Military Academy." Department, this is your ultimate goal."

Claire nodded seriously: "Well, I will work hard!"

The "Saint Romia Military Academy" mentioned by Byron is the best military academy in the entire empire directly under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Military Department. Almost all the important officials of the military department graduated there. The son has determined the direction of future efforts. As his eldest son of Alpha, he hopes that Claire can inherit his mantle and serve in the Star Corps of the military. But judging from Claire's performance when he was a child, he is really not at ease about this son.

Seeing Claire standing behind his mother with his head down, Admiral Byron couldn't help but hugged him with one hand and said, "Okay, let's eat."

Being hugged by his father with one hand, feeling the firm and strong muscles on the adult man's arm, and looking at his slender arms, Claire thought enviously: When I grow up in the future, I will definitely be as strong and strong as my father. ? After all, he is also an Alpha, isn't he? By then, Xi Wei might be able to defeat him.

The whole family had dinner together, Claire was thinking about something while eating, Grace suddenly said: "By the way, General, I remember that you and the principal of St. Divide into one class?"

Hearing Xi Wei's name, Claire immediately raised her head with bright eyes.

Byron looked at his son eagerly, and couldn't help but wonder, "Why do you want to be in the same class as Xi Wei?"

Claire said very simply: "Because we are good friends."

Grace explained: "I used to take Claire to play with Xi Wei in the palace. The two children grew up together, and they can chat better. They can take care of each other in the same class. Claire didn't like to be close to her peers since she was a child. Xi Wei He is his only friend, can you ask the principal to help you with class placement?"

Both his wife and son were begging, and it was harmless to talk about such trivial matters as class division. After thinking about it, Byron nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and talk to the principal."

Xi Wei's entrance score of 130 points was not particularly conspicuous, but it made Queen Anna and Her Majesty Trand very satisfied.

Queen Anna had already prepared several sets of tailor-made clothes for him, and dressed him carefully. Seeing the cuteness of the child in the new clothes, Queen Anna liked it more and more, and couldn't help but patted Xi Wei's head , smiled softly and said, "Xi Wei, starting next week, you will be studying at St. Paul's College. Remember to listen to the teacher and get along well with your classmates when you arrive at school. You are an Omega, don't quarrel with the Alphas, be obedient Reading, you know?"

Xi Wei nodded: "I know, don't worry, Queen Mother."

Anna was very worried that Xi Wei, who was an Omega, would suffer in school, but in fact, Xi Wei had no interest in fighting with his classmates at all. With the fighting skills he had practiced with a black belt in karate, once he made a move, he might directly kill him. People beat up and went to the hospital.

A week later, all the schools in the empire finally opened, and Xi Wei also set off to St. Paul's College with his luggage to report. Queen Anna is not easy to show her face in public, and His Majesty Trande is busy with government affairs, so the task of sending Xi Wei to school falls on the captain of the Royal Guard - General Reg.

The "Royal Guard Legion" led by Reg was regarded as the personal guard of the royal family, and Reg only obeyed His Majesty Trand, even the Marshal of the Imperial Army could not order him.

This is a very indifferent man, with a typical poker face, always expressionless, and his tone is cold when he speaks, as if the other party owes him money. Because he is too much like a hard rock just taken out of the refrigerator, many Omegas dare not approach him, so that he is still a bachelor.

Xi Wei was sitting in the suspension car, and Reg on the opposite side was like a statue. He had no intention of speaking at all, so Xi Wei could only turn his head and look out of the car window.

That was the first time he walked out of the imperial palace. The capital of the empire, "Planet Sfield", was more prosperous than he had imagined. As far as he could see, there were almost all towering buildings. Capital Star’s traffic is divided into upper, middle and lower floors. The upper two floors are air-suspended lanes, and the bottom floor is pedestrian roads. It is conceivable that if you walk on the road, you can see many colors when you look up. The hovercar floated overhead. The sky here is as blue as washed water, dotted with cotton-like white clouds, and from time to time, a group of mechas fly by at the speed of light, which is more advanced than those sci-fi blockbusters he has seen before.

The school will arrive soon. Looking down from the sky, the buildings of St. Paul's College form a complete hexagram shape. The silver-white tall buildings with six corners are shining under the sunlight, and in the center of the hexagram is a towering building The green building is an inverted triangle with many vines and flower patterns carved on it, just like a big tree with vitality, which casts a huge shade for the students.

The green building is surrounded by a large square with several musical fountains and many seats for people to rest. On the first day of school, students from all grades of St. Paul's School came to report, and the school was obviously very lively with people coming and going.

Xi Wei was sent to the freshman reception at the school gate. Reg took him through the admission procedures, received his student card, and rushed to the dormitory with his luggage.

Someone behind him asked curiously, "Whose child is this?"

"The platinum-gold suspension car seems to belong to the royal family, right?"

"I heard that the eldest prince is just five years old, and it's time for him to go to school. I guess the kid who just walked past is the eldest prince."

"I heard that he is an Omega, he must be very gentle and cute..."

The discussion behind him gradually faded away, and Xi Wei couldn't help laughing: Gentle and lovely Omega? I'm sorry students, I'm afraid I'm going to make you disillusioned.

Unexpectedly, when he came to the dormitory, Xi Wei ran into Claire.

Although I haven't seen him for two years, Xi Wei still recognized him at a glance - Claire's blond hair and sky-clear blue eyes are very characteristic, and Mrs. Grace especially likes to dress her son as a little gentleman. Today's Claire was also wearing a white shirt, a small suit, and a black bow tie as she remembered. She looked like a Q-version doll in a boutique.

When Xi Wei saw him, he was carrying a suitcase, humming and humming, climbing upstairs. The suitcase was half the size of his person, and the child seemed unable to carry it. He stopped to rest halfway up the stairs. A face was wrinkled into a bun.

Xi Wei walked up to the other party with some amusement. Claire was stunned when he saw him, and his eyes lit up: "Are you Xi Wei?"

Xi Wei nodded, and asked, "Can't lift it anymore? Do you want me to help you?"

Claire said bravely: "It's okay, I can lift it. You are an Omega, don't lift it so heavy..."

Before he finished speaking, Xi Wei picked up his suitcase with one hand and walked upstairs with a calm expression.

Claire: "…"

The five-year-old little Claire stood there in shock, staring blankly at Xi Wei's dashing back.

—How could Xi Wei be so powerful as an Omega? how come? !

With extremely complicated emotions, Claire quickly climbed to the fifth floor. Xi Wei had already brought up the luggage, and without blushing or panting, he turned around and said with a smile, "Freshmen should all live on the fifth floor, but I don't know yours." Which dormitory is it, I put the luggage here, you can pull it over by yourself, goodbye."

Claire: "...bye."

Claire, who was turned by Omega to help carry the luggage, looked at the huge suitcase in front of him, and then at Xi Wei's relaxed smile, feeling that he was not well.
