Second Marriage with the Alliance Marshal

Chapter 22: State Banquet (Enter V Announcement)

Views:

When Xu Xinghe woke up, he felt uncomfortable.

I can't say where I feel uncomfortable, but the whole person is in a daze, with an inexplicable feeling of palpitations and dizziness.

But the body temperature is normal, and there is no pain.

He guessed that he didn't have a good rest last night, so he didn't pay much attention to it, and went to work as usual after breakfast.

Today is the membership day of the Gamma galaxy, and the annual state banquet will be held at Furui Palace at 6:30 tonight.

Early in the morning, the news was overwhelmingly reporting on this feast and introducing the important people present.

Among them, the news that Marshal Ling will attend the state banquet spread like wildfire, and suddenly became the focus of public opinion.

As a result, the tea room in the ark became lively again.

"Have you heard? Marshal Ling is sure to attend the state banquet tonight!"

"Then will Xu Xinghe go with him? I didn't see it in the news."

"Not necessarily, I ran into him in the parking lot today, and his face didn't look very good—if you're going to the state banquet, why are you still at work today?"

"I think they will go. Doesn't it mean that they are in a good relationship now? It makes no sense not to attend together on such an important occasion."

"Just because it's an important occasion, Xu Xinghe is married to Marshal Ling after all, understand? Besides, General Mu will also be there, won't it be embarrassing for them to meet?"

"Think about it too much. There are hundreds of people who attend the state banquet every year. The auditorium is so big that you may not be able to meet them when you arrive. How can there be so many taboos? And if we do meet, the embarrassing ones are not necessarily who Woolen cloth."

"Speaking of which, isn't General Mu engaged to his little lover? Did he bring his fiancée to the state banquet?"

"Who knows, it will be good to watch the live broadcast of the admission."

Xu Xinghe's complexion was indeed not very good.

The spine was sore and numb, and the limbs were very weak.

The whole person has no energy, and he doesn't eat much for lunch.

But he took his temperature again, and went to the Ark infirmary during his lunch break, and there was nothing wrong with it.

"Captain, are you okay?"

Ethan paused slightly when he passed by, pushed his glasses and said, "Is it uncomfortable? Why don't you go back and rest for a while, anyway, there is not much work today, and the rest will be left to me and Xiao Zhou. good."

"I'm fine." Xu Xinghe rubbed his temples, shook his head and said, "I've gone to the infirmary to see it, and the doctor said it's fine, don't worry."

At 3:30 in the afternoon, Team Leader Xu finished replying to the last work email and checked that the time was almost up, so he turned off the optical brain and prepared to leave.

Just as he got up and put on his coat, he suddenly heard a commotion outside the door.

As soon as he looked up, the chief secretary of the board office appeared at the door and looked at him with a smile: "Please follow me."

Xu Xinghe: "..."

Ling Changfeng only said that he would send someone to pick him up, but he didn't tell him that there would be such a thing!

Under the strange and thoughtful eyes of everyone, Evelyn led him to swipe his card all the way, and took the VIP elevator to the top floor of the building.

There is a dedicated parking lot here, which is specially prepared to welcome VIPs.

"Please wait a moment, the person who will pick you up will be there soon." Evelyn said softly to Xu Xinghe.

Sure enough, after waiting for less than two minutes, the familiar black military vehicle appeared in their field of vision.

A tall man with red hair stepped out of the passenger seat.

Xu Xinghe was taken aback, he didn't expect Ling Changfeng to send Colonel Lewis to pick him up, he was usually by Ling Changfeng's side all the time.

Colonel Lewis nodded at him and said, "Good afternoon, Mr. Xu, please get in the car first."

As he spoke, he opened the door of the back seat for him.

"Thank you." Xu Xinghe turned around and was about to get in the car, but when the door opened—

I saw Ling Changfeng wearing a solemn and gorgeous military uniform, sitting upright in his position.

Xu Xinghe: "..."

Since getting married, this is the second time he has seen Ling Changfeng dressed so formally.

The first time seemed to be on the wedding night.

At that time, he didn't actually look carefully at what Ling Changfeng was wearing, but only remembered the rows of dazzling medals on his chest.

as it is now.

Ling Changfeng was also taken aback when he saw Xu Xinghe.

There was a sweet smell of pheromone, which was unique to his little spouse.

But it seems that it is not the same as usual, and I can't tell what is different.

"Come on." Ling Changfeng said, "Qin Yuan has arranged a place, and I will accompany you to change the dress first."

At five o'clock in the evening, the gate of Furui Palace opened.

The 100-meter red carpet was laid all the way from the drop-off point to the banquet hall.

Dozens of media outside the door have already set up their cameras, scrambling to report on this annual event.

The guests invited to attend the state banquet began to enter the venue one after another.

Powerful politicians, illustrious generals, well-known scientists, wealthy chaebols...

Elites from all walks of life gather here to participate in this feast.

5:00 to 6:00 is the admission time. The media waited for wave after wave of VIP guests. Seeing that the time reached 5:50, most of the invited guests had already entered the venue. Everyone finally realized a problem—

Where is Marshal Ling?

The last time Ling Changfeng attended a state banquet was more than ten years ago.

So as soon as the news came out, the media and the public looked forward to it.

But now that the entrance ceremony is about to end, Ling Changfeng is nowhere to be seen. The media stationed outside the gate looked at each other and began to discuss and exchange in whispers...

Finally, at five fifty-seven in the evening.

In the long-awaited waiting of everyone, the pure black AA00001 finale debut.

As soon as Ling Changfeng's car arrived, the scene immediately erupted.

Countless media immediately pointed their cameras at the car door, for fear of missing any frame with Ling Changfeng present.

The car door opened, and Marshal Ling in military uniform came out.

But after getting out of the car, Ling Changfeng didn't go directly to the banquet hall, but walked around to the other side of the car. Under the eyes of everyone, he opened the car door himself, bent down slightly, and handed a bag to the inside of the car. hand.

The people in the car hesitated for a while, but finally took the hand and got out of the car.

There was a moment of silence in the noisy scene.

Even the click of the camera stopped.

Xu Xinghe was wearing a well-tailored black suit, which made his broad shoulders, thin waist, narrow hips, and long legs even more stylish.

And even more refined than his attire was his appearance.

Xu Xinghe's facial features were originally handsome and correct, with a small face and high nose bridge, coupled with a pair of smart deer eyes, he appeared in front of everyone in a suit and leather shoes, looking dignified and extraordinary in appearance.

Xu Xinghe was actually a little speechless, at first he naively thought that he was really just going to change clothes.

As a result, he got out of the car and found that he was greeted by a whole styling team.

Although Xu Xinghe only made one request from the beginning to the end—keep everything simple, the whole process of makeup and hair styling still lasted for more than an hour.

In the meantime, Ling Changfeng didn't urge him, just sat quietly and read the documents, and waited until Xu Xinghe himself became anxious before setting off.

However, at the moment when the styling was done, Xu Xinghe looked at himself in the mirror and had to admit that the words "a man depends on his clothes" still had some truth to it.

Rao Xu Xinghe thought he was thick-skinned, but he was still a little uncomfortable facing so much media for the first time.

He tugged on Ling Changfeng's cuff, and whispered: "Let's retreat quickly."

Ling Changfeng paused, Yitong swept over the hand hooked on his forearm, and his Adam's apple rolled slightly: "Okay."

After a few seconds, the media finally started working as if they had just woken up from a dream.

For a moment, the camera light flickered wildly, illuminating the scene as if it were daytime.

Xu Xinghe dragged Ling Changfeng into the banquet hall almost at a trot all the way.

Of course, in his own eyes, it is "pull", but in the eyes of many media around him, how harmonious is the picture of Marshal Ling's wife "holding" Marshal Ling!

Let's use it on the front page of tomorrow's news!

The banquet hall was brightly lit and full of voices.

Marshal Ling's seat is in the front row, so there is still a long way to go after entering the hall.

Along the way, people kept coming forward to say hello, but Ling Changfeng just nodded indifferently and did not stop.

Xu Xinghe put down his hand a long time ago, and walked quietly beside him.

Suddenly Ling Changfeng asked: "Are you feeling unwell today?"

Xu Xinghe was taken aback, then said softly: "It's okay."

He was not very well at first, but since meeting Ling Changfeng in the afternoon, the situation seems to be much better, and he is not very uncomfortable now.

"Tell me in time if there is anything wrong." Ling Changfeng said, "If you are not feeling well, we can go back early."

At half past six in the evening, the state banquet started on time.

After the speaker gave a speech, it finally came to the meal that Xu Xinghe was looking forward to.

God knows that one of the reasons why he is willing to attend the state banquet is that, as a half-hearted chef, he wants to experience the highest-standard banquet in the Gamma galaxy.

And the food at the state banquet did not disappoint him—

Three shredded shark fin, asparagus and abalone, dry-aged ribeye steak, wild mushroom soup with black truffle...

From the ingredients to the cooking, they are very particular, which makes Chef Xu feel ashamed.

The result is…

Xu Xinghe was fed up.

He poked Ling Changfeng with his elbow, and said in a low voice, "I'm going to the bathroom."

Ling Changfeng gave his hand a slow cut of the steak.

He didn't know why, but today's Xu Xinghe gave him a special feeling—

I especially don't want him to leave my sight range.

But no matter what, he just went to the bathroom, and he couldn't follow along all the way.

Ling Changfeng put down the knife and fork and said, "Okay, then go and come back quickly."

Xu Xinghe was not in a hurry to go back quickly.

But what made him feel evil was that just after he left Ling Changfeng's side for a while, the uncomfortable feeling returned.

Numbness, dizziness, seems to have a little fever...

But when Xu Xinghe took his temperature, it was 36.8°C, but there was still nothing abnormal.

In the bathroom, Xu Xinghe washed his face with cold water in a daze, completely ignoring the light makeup on his face.

It's a pity that it didn't work, the dizziness is still there.

So Xu Xinghe decided to go back to find Ling Changfeng, he instinctively felt that it would be safer to be by that person's side right now.

As soon as he walked out of the bathroom door, Xu Xinghe froze.

Mu Qingyun, also in military uniform, stood at the door, looking at him with a pair of pure black eyes...

Mu Qingyun originally only came to the bathroom.

But when he was about to leave, he smelled a faint fragrance at the door.

Although it was very faint, the aroma seemed to be entangled in his brain all of a sudden, making him stop involuntarily.

He always thought that Milu was the one whose pheromones matched him best.

He loves his pheromones.

That smell makes me feel relaxed and happy...

In the end, the mastermind gave him Xu Xinghe, a Xu Xinghe whose pheromone had no smell.

He couldn't understand or agree with the calculation results of the master brain, and he resolutely filed for divorce a year later.

Until now, he saw Xu Xinghe walking out from behind that door.

A faint Omega pheromone emanates from him, although it is very weak, it is enough to make you obsessed...

Also crazy.

When Xu Xinghe saw Mu Qingyun, he put oil on his feet, turned around and left.

After walking two steps, he suddenly stopped abruptly.

"Mu Qingyun, why are you crazy!"

Xu Xinghe turned his head in disbelief.

—Mu Qingyun released his Alpha pheromone.

Xu Xinghe has always been insensitive to Alpha's pheromone.

Mu Qingyun is one of the few Alphas that he can perceive, but this perception does not make him feel comfortable.

For example, at this moment, under Mu Qingyun's pheromone attack, his dizziness increased.

Dizzy, just want to escape from here.

And Mu Qingyun's black eyes stared straight at him, making him a little scared.

Xu Xinghe clenched his right hand into a fist, gritted his teeth and said, "Take your bad smelling pheromone and get out! Don't go crazy in front of me..."

Just as he finished speaking, he saw Mu Qingyun walking towards him.

"You stop!"

Xu Xinghe subconsciously took two steps back...

Hit a broad chest.

A deep and gentle breath like the sea then surrounded him.

The dizziness receded slowly, as if a hot spring flowed through the limbs and bones.

He can feel the tolerance, warmth, and fraternity of Nahai...

And under the calm sea, the rough waves of anger.

When Xu Xinghe turned his head, Ling Changfeng stood behind him, putting his hand on his shoulder.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

After all, he looked up like Mu Qingyun.

In an instant, a sense of fear that made Mu Qingyun's hair stand on end and his scalp tingle went straight to his brain.

It was as if a tsunami hit the shore in the dark.

And he is so small and weak in front of this hundred-foot-high black tsunami...

It will soon be engulfed by a tsunami.

Although they belonged to different camps, Mu Qingyun had actually met Ling Changfeng on many occasions.

In his impression, the Union Marshal is always calm and composed.

Like a dead sea, without waves.

It has never been like this moment, there are mountain torrents and tsunamis in the different pupils, and there are also thousands of miles of ice——

It was as if someone coveted the most precious treasure.
