Love at Second Sight [Interstellar]

In the hospital, Zhou Yuchen was standing outside the ward, talking to Louis in a low voice. Suddenly, his wrist vibrated. It was a communication request from Zhou Dun. Zhou Yuchen answered the channel: "Dad?" Louis backed out knowingly.

"You detained a chief sentinel?" Zhou Dun said, "The people in the military department are talking endlessly, and your mother almost lost her temper. What's going on?"

"That man's name is Brande Russell. He approached Zhuang Yan disguised as a second sentinel, put medicine in his water, and almost marked him." Zhou Yuchen said about the information about Brande Russell that he would find. All sent over.

"...Then you can't tell your mother, she will rush to the military headquarters to draw her gun." Zhou Dun read the information, "Do you need us to come forward?"

"No, I have a solution."

"That's good. I heard that you were called into the palace by His Majesty last night?"

"The queen arranged a small banquet." Zhou Yuchen said, "Marshal Langton is also here. The queen also introduced me to the eldest daughter of the Spinella family."

"Spinella's family?" Zhou Dun said, "Is this what His Majesty meant?"

Zhou Yuchen didn't answer. The father and son looked at each other, and the thoughts in their hearts were self-evident - the queen was Marshal Langton's sister, this banquet was initiated by the queen, the emperor acquiesced, and the plan behind the scenes was naturally Marshal Langton.

The Spinella family was a vassal of the Langton family a hundred years ago, and they were the iron-clad Langton party. According to His Majesty's favor for Marshal Langton, if the emperor really wanted to marry Zhou Yuchen and Miss Spinela, it would be a little bit tricky.

"What are you going to do?"

"Let's settle the matter of Brandt Russell first." Zhou Yuchen said, "If it's what I guessed, then we have to take it step by step." He suddenly heard the movement inside: "I'll hang up first, Dad."

He walked into the room and sat on the chair beside the bed. Zhuang Yan frowned slightly, his throat rolled, and he moaned hoarsely. Zhou Yuchen poured a glass of warm water from the kettle beside the bed.

Zhuang Yan opened his eyes, and Zhou Yuchen said, "Are you awake?" He stretched out an arm to wrap around Zhuang Yan's shoulder, raised the pillow for him, and gave him some water.

After moistening his throat, Zhuang Yan made a sound: "How long have I been asleep?"

"one day one Night."

"You won't be here all the time, will you?"

"What do you think?" Zhou Yuchen put the water glass back on the bedside table, leaned over with his arms folded beside Zhuang Yan's pillow, "I want you to see me as soon as you open your eyes."

The look in his eyes made Zhuang Yan clearly recall how emotional he was the night before, how he walked from one side of the wall to the other and kissed Zhou Yuchen like this.

He couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, his cheeks were a little hot, but he looked at Zhou Yuchen, and Zhou Yuchen looked at him.Kissing again.

Zhuang Yan's body was still very weak, Zhou Yuchen supported his head and neck, and the kiss gradually deepened from shallow to deep until Zhuang Yan was out of breath: "Um...stop..."

It took Zhou Yuchen a while to separate from him, and a suppressed hot breath sprayed between them: "What's wrong?"

A blush appeared on Zhuang Yan's pale face, he didn't know if he was out of breath or embarrassed: "I haven't brushed my teeth yet."

Zhou Yuchen couldn't help laughing, touched Zhuang Yan's forehead, then stroked his face, kissed his lips, and said softly, "Are you hungry?"

"It's okay." Zhuang Yan said, at this moment, they couldn't think of anything, they couldn't see anything, they only saw each other, Zhuang Yan came back to his senses: "You haven't slept all this time? Come up and sleep for a while." Senior Ward The bed was wide enough, he tried to move his body, but unfortunately he still couldn't.

"Okay." Zhou Yuchen was still in the same position of half-embracing him and kissing him. As he spoke, a look of narrowness suddenly flashed in his eyes. In this position, with one hand free, he slowly unbuttoned his military uniform, "I'm naked." Did you sleep well?"

Zhuang Yan was taken aback for a moment, and his mind began to think of the picture of Zhou Yuchen not wearing clothes. This picture and his behavior made his cheeks burn, and the blush spread from the cheekbones to the back of the ears, and his speech got stuck: "No, not good, you..."

Zhou Yuchen suppressed a smile, took off his coat under Zhuang Yan's nervous gaze, and laughed out loud. He lay on the bed next to Zhuang Yan, pulled Zhuang Yan over, hugged him tightly, and took Zhuang Yan's arm Pull it over and put it on his waist, and put his hand on Zhuang Yan's waist.

Zhuang Yan was only a little shorter than him in height, but his figure was no match for him.His whole body stiffened like a piece of iron, with his hands on Zhou Yuchen's waist. Zhou Yuchen's body, which had been trained for many years in the army, was a perfect inverted triangle from back to waist, and his legs were slender. At this moment, he was lying on his back. Beside Zhuang Yan, his whole body is relaxed, but his muscles are full of explosive power, like a resting lion.

He was not used to sleeping with people at all. Since he was a child, except for special circumstances, he only slept with his mother and Zhuang Xu. Even Zhuang Xu and him slept in two beds.

Zhou Yuchen suddenly tightened his grip on his waist: "Can't sleep? Then let's continue." He rubbed the tip of his nose against Zhuang Yan's, his smile was self-evident.

"..." Zhuang Yan burst out a few words from between his teeth: "How can I sleep if you hug me so tightly?"

Zhou Yuchen only wore a thin shirt, and he only wore a hospital gown, and Zhou Yuchen's body was like a big furnace.

He is not only a piece of iron, but also a piece of iron being roasted on the fire.

"Let go of your hands and go over there." Zhuang Yan felt his strength recover, so he stretched out his hand to push Zhou Yuchen away, "Lie face up to the ceiling, so we can..."

Zhou Yuchen made a gesture to relax his arms and listen to his command, but turned over in the next second, blocking all his words with a moist kiss.

In the morning, Louis came to the ward on time at seven o'clock just like yesterday. He pushed open the door of the ward and saw that there was no one outside. The door of the inner room was ajar. He walked in and backed out half a second later.

Zhou Yuchen's shirt was crumpled after sleeping all night, and he came out with his coat. Louis said, "Today..." Zhou Yuchen raised his index finger, turned around and closed the door, and Louis hurriedly lowered his voice, "Today must be interrogated. Neither I nor the Russell family would give up."

Zhou Yuchen straightened his clothes, and the two walked out of the ward. The two orderlies standing at the door saluted solemnly. Zhou Yuchen nodded and said, "Go to the base now."

"Yes." Louis replied, replaying in his mind the scene of Zhou Yuchen sitting on the edge of the bed with a smile on his lips, staring at his sweetheart with tiresome eyes.

That Brandt Russell was a real help, he said.

Marty didn't know what he had committed until he was taken into the interrogation room. He was taken from the hall of the meeting into the prison of the satellite base when he was drunk.After being held for a day and two nights, he was brought into the interrogation room, and it didn't take long for him to spit out what he knew.

The young sentry, who was only 17 years old, was taken down in panic. The interrogator sat on the side of the transparent curtain wall, and Louis stood next to him with his arms folded. Two minutes later, Brandt Russell, formerly Leiter Feng was escorted into the interrogation room.

He was stripped of his military uniform, and two sentries pressed him on the torture chair and tied him up. He still had a calm smile on his face.

"Brand Russell, who ordered you to drug Zhuang Yan's water with the intention of forcibly marking him?"

"No one, I just did it on a whim." Brandt Russell laughed, "Don't forget, my lord interrogator, I have chief immunity, and I will be treated as I came in the night before yesterday." go out."

His unscrupulous attitude made the interrogator furious, but what Brande Russell said was true, because the chief sentinels were extremely rare, and these sentries were strictly monitored and protected by the empire. To save his life under such circumstances, he doesn't even need to go to jail, he just goes back to the tower for retraining.

He raised one hand and knocked on the glass. After the master said something, the interrogator clicked twice on the virtual screen, and the opaque part on the far right side of the curtain wall rose slowly. Behind the rising curtain wall, Zhou Yuchen was sitting. .

"You are the adopted son of the Russell family, and your father is Langton's old department." Zhou Yuchen's tone was steady, as if he wasn't the one who turned the entire military area upside down because of Zhuang Yan's disappearance that day.

"It seems that the admiral has already made a decision in his heart, why do you still ask me?"

Before Bo Lante finished his sentence, his face suddenly changed, his whole body tensed up, and he stared at Zhou Yuchen. Next to his legs bound by steel rings, a Bengal tiger appeared, facing Zhou Yuchen in an aggressive posture.

There was also a low, angry grunt from behind Zhou Yuchen, and the snow leopard walked out with a low body. It knew that this was the instigator of those wounds on the black panther.

Zhou Yuchen looked at Brande Russell, and the smell of gunpowder in the air became heavier and heavier under his deliberate pressure.Just when Brandt's eyes were bloodshot and the snow leopard was about to pounce on him in the next moment, he said, "Parker."

He gave the order, and the snow leopard backed away reluctantly and disappeared, and at the same time, for Brandt Russell, the weightless pressure in the air dissipated.

Zhou Yuchen stood up and ordered, "Continue to be detained."

Walking out of the interrogation room, Louis followed Zhou Yuchen and said, "How do you express your opinion to the military department?"

Zhou Yuchen said: "Speak out, I want to expel Brandt Russell from the military, and the relevant people will have their military ranks cut and dismissed according to the seriousness of the circumstances."

Louis was startled, and looked up at Zhou Yuchen: "You know this is impossible." A person who has been expelled from the military cannot return to the army for life, and a chief sentry should be expelled from the army?The military department heard that it was about to explode.

"Impossible?" Zhou Yuchen asked lightly, "Let's just try."

Zhuang Yan woke up at seven o'clock in the morning, had breakfast under the care of the nurse, and slept for two days and two nights. His whole body was sore and numb, and he didn't want to lie down after breakfast. He sat on the head of the bed just after eight o'clock, Zhuang Han is here.

"What do you think? You still look bad." He sat down by the bed and tucked the quilt for him, "Uncle already knows."

"What is he going to do?"

"Of course it's going to the imperial court, what should I do." Zhuang Han's slick expression of smiling at everyone is gone, and anger appears in his eyes, "The bastards in the military department think that a chief immunity can protect them all And retreat?" The banker is moderate, but not weak.The dealer knew who planned this conspiracy and what it was aimed at.

Joseph Langton, who held the military power and the emperor's favor, really covered the sky with one hand.

"I will smooth out the operation on my side. When necessary, the uncle will write a letter to ask the emperor to express his position. General Zhou also talked to me yesterday. He will not back down in the slightest from the military department. That Brandt Russell will Go to jail."

Zhuang Yan listened silently, nodded and said, "I'm much better now, you tell father. Besides, I want to talk to him sometime about the marriage with the Zhou family."

Zhuang Han was startled, and stared at Zhuang Yan. Zhuang Yan felt a little embarrassed by him, Zhuang Han clicked his tongue: "It seems that someone has changed his gender."

"..."

"Are you finally planning to show up for the family, or has Admiral Zhou's two-day and one-night guard been effective?"

"Stop talking nonsense."

Zhuang Han laughed out loud. It's a rare opportunity to laugh at Zhuang Yan. It's no wonder he let it go. He kept laughing until Zhuang Yan became angry and threw a pillow at him. Zhou Yuchen was the first to bear the brunt of the family's actions, so they don't have to worry about it. The bigger the trouble, the better. If the emperor can be forced to speak out in person, it will not only give a sigh of relief on the bright side, but also let those who plotted secretly Be afraid.

Zhuang Han seemed to think of something, but hesitated to speak, Zhuang Yan saw it and said, "Speak up if you have something to say, don't act like this."

Zhuang Han had no choice but to think about it for a while, then sighed and said, "If this matter is exposed, it can make Langdon fear us, are you willing?"

Zhuang Yan paused, and Zhuang Han said: "You know that the Congress will introduce new laws soon." The changes to the laws to be made by the 42 jurisdictions of the Empire will be finalized at the Congress in November and officially promulgated in December.

"What does that have to do with Langdon and this thing?"

"Langton's legislative team has proposed a new bill." Zhuang Han said, "It's about the retirement age of sentries and the guide's right to choose a spouse."

Zhuang Yan cheered up: "What does he want to do?"

"The content of the bill is mainly to increase the retirement age of sentries and redefine the guide's right to choose a spouse. The original text roughly means that when the proportion of sentries in the jurisdiction is less than a certain value, the guide can be forced to combine with the matched sentry."

Zhuang Yan couldn't help being shocked: "Is he crazy? This is a violation of human rights and unconstitutional!"

"That's right, but it involves the military and national security, and Langton declared that this bill is only implemented within his jurisdiction. If he can win over enough congressmen and convince His Majesty the Emperor, this bill may indeed be passed."

If he remembered correctly, the Third Army led by Langton had the lowest proportion of sentries among all the imperial armies. Zhuang Yan felt ironic: "Only within his jurisdiction?" Who doesn't know about boiling frogs in warm water?Once the power of personal freedom is regressed, it means that everything about oneself is at the mercy of the army.

"This bill is only in the filing box of the Military Rectification Committee. If it is exposed to the public, it will definitely cause an uproar. This is what Langton is trying to avoid. He wants to be in the bill before it is promulgated in December. Folk public opinion builds up momentum, slowly weakens the public's antipathy, and then it is finalized." Zhuang Han looked at Zhuang Yan.

"What if we exposed this bill before he did? And what you experienced that night is the strongest proof that this bill is terribly wrong. We can only expose the name of Brandt Russell, However, this is also a way to injure the enemy one thousand and self-injury eight hundred."

Zhuang Yan was silent, and after a while: "Let me think about it."

"I'm just suggesting that, you don't have any pressure." Zhuang Han stood up, "Actually, I don't know if it's worth it or not. I think only you can decide."

Is it worth it?Zhuang Yan thought, should he choose to lick the wound by himself, or simply make the wound tear bigger to fight back against the enemy?

When Zhou Yuchen returned to the ward in the evening, he found that the room was pitch black, and the blond man was lying on his side, the light from the window reflected on his light blond hair.

"Why don't you turn on the light?" Zhou Yuchen sat on the bed, hugged Zhuang Yan from behind, resting his chin on his shoulder, "What's wrong?"

"No." Zhuang Yan turned around and faced Zhou Yuchen. He thought of the bill that Zhou Yuchen was working on. Compared with Langton's proposal, the intentions of the two sides were exactly the opposite. Zhou Yuchen would not be ignorant of Langton's bill. If Han could think of using this matter to threaten Langton, so could he.

"Zhuang Han came to see me today and gave me a proposal to use the exposure of my incident to attack Langton's bill."

Zhou Yuchen was taken aback for a moment, then frowned: "I don't suggest you do this."

"Are you worried about me?"

"Can you bear it?" When Zhuang Yan was still asleep in the ward, Louis proposed this plan outside, but Zhou Yuchen vetoed it. For a person as arrogant as Zhuang Yan, let him put his embarrassing wounds on everyone. It is the greatest humiliation to him, "Is it worth it?"

Worth it or not, Zhuang Yan said, "I'm thinking." He looked at Zhou Yuchen, "Do you think it's not worth it at all?"

Zhou Yuchen played with Zhuang Yan's slender hand on the quilt, and after a while he said, "Joseph Langton used to be my teacher."

"He is my third teacher after my parents. I admire him for his insight and ambition. However, I also knew very early on that his philosophy of war is far from mine."

"He goes into battle to fulfill his ambition. So as long as he goes forward and the enemy is afraid, he wins. For me, as long as the man I'm defending is safe, I win."

"The only thing we have in common is that we all know what we want."

"Do you know what you want?" Zhou Yuchen asked.

Zhuang Yan looked at Zhou Yuchen, then lowered his eyes for a moment, then raised his eyes and said, "I think not only should this matter be exposed, but also your and my names must be added."

Adding the names of the imperial generals and the heirs of the Zhuang family, this news is powerful enough.

If he wants anything, he needs this power. To defend himself and the person he wants to protect. Compared with this power, the embarrassment of being surrounded by people watching the wound is very small, and the lost self-esteem is also very small. He wants to let those who secretly watch people are afraid.He wants to win.

Zhou Yuchen smiled, put his fingers into Zhuang Yan's, and interlocked with him.

"as you wish."
