Chapter 108

After the Chief Ceremony, Tang's mother exchanges parenting experience with a group of parents.

"Mrs. Tang, how did you raise such wonderful children?"

"How come Tang Bai's skin is so good, is it a dietary supplement? But Mrs. Tang your skin is so good, it should be hereditary."

"I heard that His Excellency Tang Rong has customized all kinds of early childhood games for Tang Bai, and I'm so envious that you have such a great father-in-law."

"Mrs. Tang, thank you for raising such a wonderful Tang Bai , who saved my child ......"

Tang's mother was surrounded by a bunch of parents, she smiled so much that she couldn't even close her mouth, "Our Sugar Sugar doesn't need me to put much effort into it, he's very self-conscious about his studies." "There's no such thing as dietary supplements, all I do is home cooking ......"

She said these things with a glowing look, a far cry from her former self, who had deliberately avoided such topics.

For not giving birth to an alpha in Tang's family, Tang's mother has felt guilty and uneasy for so many years.

omega is always going to be married off, the Tang family's huge family business is all going to be cheaper for outsiders, and it's all because of her stomach, she seems to be stuck in a strange quagmire.

Even though her husband told her he didn't care, and Grandpa Tang never pressured her, Tang's mother's sense of morality still strongly condemns herself.

The excellent genes of the Tang family have not been passed on, if she gave birth to an alpha, the Federation might have one more excellent weapon maker, or at least that child would have inherited Tang's father's business talent ......

All this obsession began to falter when she saw Tang Bai win the mech building competition.

She watched this kid build mechs, write articles, go to military school, and finally save everyone in the game.

The moment the child became chief and stood in the auditorium, his name called out by countless people, surrounded by loud cheers and bright lights, she suddenly realized that what was hiding in the swamp was an Xing Xing.

The Xing Xing that keeps all the love and goodness alive.

When Tang Bai went to look for Xie Ruhang, he found him standing next to a slouching alpha with drooping eyelids, smelling of cigarettes, more like a decadent artist than a soldier.

"Elder Lu En?" Tang Bai called out smilingly.

Jiao Jian's posture was languid with his hands in his pockets, lifting his eyelids to look at Tang Bai, and faintly said, "Well, that's a good speech."

Not expecting Jiao Jian to comment on his speech, Tang Bai thought that Jiao Jian would just doze off during the ceremony, "Thanks for the compliment, if this was in the game, I should be able to receive a beep from senior's favor boost."

Jiao Jian smiled lazily.

"Brother Xie, you stay here with Elder Jiao Jian, I'll go find Uncle Li first." Tang Bai looked around and didn't see Li Songyun's figure, he wondered, "Why isn't Uncle Li sitting in Gu Tunan's family seat?"

The originally listless Jiao Jian froze, "...... Li Songyun?"

Tang Bai was looking for someone in the auditorium, and while standing on his tiptoes to look around, he casually said, "You know Uncle Li? Then you're in for a treat this time, Uncle Li is going to make us dessert."

A message beep sounded on the lightbrain ring.

"Eh? Uncle Lai sent a message that he's watching our live broadcast outside the school and asked us to meet him at the school gate." Tang Bai was puzzled, "Why would Uncle Lai want to watch the live broadcast outside the school, doesn't Gu Tunan also have three family spots?"

Tang Bai muttered and turned to Xie Ruhang and a stunned Jiao Jian, "Let's go find Uncle Li."

Jiao Jian opened her mouth, as if there was some invisible glue sticking to her upper and lower lips, and a longing and hesitant look was intertwined on that face.

--No, I'm busy this afternoon.

-Okay, I'll go get him now.

Another light-brain message beep, and Li Songyun answered the question of why he was standing at the school entrance and not coming in:

"Oh, so it's because Uncle Lai is getting divorced - from Uncle Gu?!"

Gray eyes widened for a split second.

Jiao Jian strides to Tang Bai s side, said in an urgent voice: "What has he encountered, is there any accident, do you want us to help ......"

Jiao Jian, who was speaking slowly before, seems to have transformed into a laser gun, speaking more than three times faster.

Tang Bai: "?"

Tang Bai suspected that if he didn't type up a question, Jiao Jian would grab his optical brain and ask Li Songyun.

"Uncle Lai, why do you suddenly want a divorce?"

Jiao Jian stared nervously at the chat page with the solemnity of a military secret.

"I don't want to be Mrs. Gu anymore, I want to be myself for a while."

Jiao Jian stared blankly at the reply that was to be his own on the photobrain, those eyes looking lost in thought.

Li Songyun: "I'm right at the door, are you coming for me?"

Tang Bai subconsciously looked at Jiao Jian, who was tense, his thin lips pursed, seemingly in a heavenly battle, and his long, slender hands scratched his hair into a mess.

This series of unusual reactions led Tang Bai to a conjecture in his mind.

"Going?" He asked.

After hearing Tang Bai's inquiry, Jiao Jian remained silent for a moment and abruptly straightened his back, "Go."

Tang Bai and Xie Ruhang followed behind Jiao Jian, and they watched as Jiao Jian, who always shuffled his shoes, walked faster and faster, the First Star Cluster's cloak creating a harsh arc behind him.

The imposing pace suddenly paused at the sight of the figure at the school entrance.

Looking at Li Songyun, who slowly turned around, Jiao Jian's heart felt like it had been struck by something.

Twenty-six years have passed, a lot of things are in the passing years quietly change, but did not take away his beauty, and after the precipitation also has more youth has not been the ease of knowledge.

He saw Li Songyun walking towards him with faith, the corners of his lips upturned, his eyebrows relaxed, his face showing fatigue, but his soul was strong enough to support his tired body.

Jiao Jian's breath hitched as he froze for two seconds reacting to return the smile, only to see Li Songyun walk past him with his eyes fixed on the ground, smiling at his juniors, "Sugarplum, you gave a really good speech this time... Is Ru Heng wearing the same type of earrings as you? It's such a good match ......"

Jiao Jian: "?"

Jiao Jian stood frozen in place, and it took him three seconds to accept the fact that Li Songyun did not recognize him.

Jiao Jian reached up and touched his scruff, then sniffing and sniffing vigorously at the smell of his own cigarettes, followed by a silent look at his dusty boots and wrinkled uniform, a hint of agitation and discouragement in his eyes.

"Uncle Lai, this is Elder Jiao Jian, you should know him." Tang Bai hurriedly reminded against Jiao Jian's gaze that looked like a wolfhound being abandoned.

Li Songyun was surprised and looked back at Jiao Jian who was standing beside him.

The First Order's clothing comes with a sense of oppression, not to mention the fact that Jiao Jian's body is taller than the average alpha, with smooth muscle lines that bring out the snow-capped mountainous aura of this white uniform.

It was a mature, handsome alpha with slightly curly white hair that was a bit messy and narrow gray eyes that showed a hint of wildness when he smiled, "It's been a long time."

He extends a white-gloved hand to Li Songyun.

"Xiao Jian?" Li Songyun had some difficulty connecting the person in front of him with the remembered teenage boy for a while, "I didn't even recognize it was you, it's really been a long time."

"Twenty years, three months and one day." Jiao Jian gently shook Li Songyun's hand.

"You have a good memory." Li Songyun lamented, "Time flies, you've become a senior sergeant of the First Star Regiment now."

He remembers that twenty-six years ago, Jiao Jian's parents died in an accident. At that time, Jiao Jian was young and was just a poor student receiving financial support from the Lai family.

Studying hard, working hard, but not knowing what it takes to take care of yourself.

At that time, Li Songyun's school was very close to Jiao Jian's home, and he would give Jiao Jian the extra dishes he made for his cooking class, and he would make a dress for Jiao Jian for his clothing class, taking care of Jiao Jian as his younger brother for a long time.

Almost take care of two or three years, and then later he got married, there is no time to take care of this brother, and so Li Songyun pregnant with the first child, he heard that Jiao Jian in the university is very decadent, he was very angry, hit the communication video Jiao Jian scolded a meal.

He doesn't understand how his brother, whom he has watched grow up, has suddenly lost his ambition to play with things. Jiao Jian tells him that there is something he wants so badly that he saves up desperately for it, but before he can save up that huge amount, the treasure he has been longing for is bought by someone else.

Li Songyun doesn't know what Jiao Jian wants, but he tells him that there are many precious things in life, and if he doesn't work hard now, he will have to watch his favorite things being snatched away by others again and again.

At that time, there were a lot of wars on the border between the Federation and the Empire. Jiao Jian disobeyed his advice and went to the most dangerous war zone for more than ten years.

He also gradually forgot about this younger brother, and sometimes he would hear people talk about Jiao Jian, hearing about what Jiao Jian had accomplished on the battlefield again, hearing that Jiao Jian had entered the First Star Corps, and hearing about which omega ...... family Jiao Jian had rejected.

In the case of interstellar per capita two hundred years old, Jiao Jian this year has not yet passed the thirty-ninth birthday, without any background, relying on their own efforts to become the first star corps senior sergeant, his future can be expected.

"Brother." Jiao Jian's voice was hoarse as he gently called out to Li Songyun.

This long-lost "Brother" touched Li Songyun's expression, "What's wrong?"

"I heard that you got divorced." Jiao Jian said cautiously, "Are you in some kind of trouble? Did Gu Mian bully you?"

"I'm fine, I just suddenly thought about it, I'm too tired after so many years, I want to live in a different way." Li Songyun reached out his hand, he wanted to touch Jiao Jian's head as he did in the past, but now Jiao Jian was too tall, his hand could only fall on alpha's broad shoulder.

He smelled the strong smell of tobacco on Jiao Jian's body, which reminded Li Songyun of Jiao Jian's decadent days in college, when he also smoked and drank heavily, and when he told Jiao Jian to quit drinking and not to be sober all day long.

This Smoke Smell ......

How many packs do you smoke a day?

Li Songyun couldn't help but say, "Xiao Jian, smoking is bad for your health, you should smoke less of this kind of stuff."

With her light gray eyes focused on him, Jiao Jian didn't hesitate to say, "Yes, I'll quit smoking."

Jiao Jian's promise was so simple that it made Li Songyun a bit embarrassed, "It's fine to have one or two proper ones."

Jiao Jian nodded his head seriously, with a look of concentration that he would listen to whatever Li Songyun said.

Between the four eyes, Li Songyun couldn't bear to look away, "Sugarplum, where are your parents? Have they gone back already?"

"Nope, they're still in the auditorium." Tang Bai is probably still too fucking lost in rainbow farts at this point.

"Then let's wait for them here again." As soon as Li Songyun's words fell, he saw Jiao Jian nodding seriously, "Good."

...... Is this treating me like I'm his officer?

Li Songyun smiled helplessly.
