No Master [Interstellar]

Bruges showed anger rarely: "He threatened you again?"

While the bodyguards were still guessing what "again" meant, Ronan hurriedly explained, "No. This is... a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding." He coughed and threw his belt in the corner of the sofa in the living room. .Then changed the subject and said: "You also moved to the central star?"

Bruges finally looked away from the belt, regained his usual calmness, and replied: "Yes. I came two days ago. It's just the handover procedure."

"Oh." Ronan gave way to the door.

But Bruges didn't enter the door, but instead asked, "Are you free at noon today?"

"I'm free, I'm so free. What are you doing?"

"Director Maturin has also moved to Central Star. I made an appointment with him to have a meal at his house at noon today. Do you want to go together?"

Ronan pondered for a moment when he heard the words. Gray had told him about it before, and he wanted to go too, but he spread his hands: "I can't go anywhere except the club. They say it's for safety reasons." He looked at his bodyguards.

"It's fine. The director's spouse is also a male son, and the area where his residence is located has a high security level. I'll take you there personally." Bruges smiled: "Your bodyguards can also stay at home."

The guards hesitated for a moment: "But..." They actually belonged to the military department, not Ronan's personal guards, and put the orders of the military department first.The military department asked them to follow Ronan all the time.

Bruges took out a card: "My security level should be enough to escort him?"

The guards looked at each other and fell silent.It would have been possible to stop Bruges if Fried had been there, but they obviously couldn't.Seeing their expressions, Ronan cheered and ran out of the gate.Not counting the time he sneaked out with the pirates, it was the first time he had gone out alone without his escorts.Waving to the resentful guards, Ronan smiled and closed the door of Phantom.

Not long after he closed the door, Bruges keenly noticed something strange.

In the confined space, the concentration of pheromones rose sharply. Although it was still much lower than the normal level, it was much higher than when he came last time.Others may not be able to detect it, but he has used it and been in contact with Ronan many times, so he is very aware of the difference.Possibly soon Ronan's pheromones will return to normal expression.In terms of time, the duration of his inhibitor should also be up.

However, Bruges didn't show it at all in the interview, and he slowly started the spacecraft.

After getting on Phantom, Ronan noticed a slight difference. "Isn't this the Phantom you used to have in Guitar Six?" Ronan asked while looking around.

"Well, good observation skills. The original one is left at the guitar, so it's inconvenient to transport it here."

Ronan leaned back, the seat automatically adjusted, and the body felt almost exactly the same.He said with emotion: "Lord, this level of aircraft, one for each planet. It feels great to change it if you want?"

Bruges said modestly: "It's just like a local tyrant, after all, this manufacturer is under my name."

Ronan: "..." I forgot, the entire universe will be yours from now on.

"Are you busy during this time?" Ronan asked.

"Did you see it?" Bruges took the time to glance at him while manipulating the phantom into the air.

"Too busy to see anyone." Ronan said jokingly, he didn't realize that his tone was somewhat complaining: "Is this a sequela of identity leak?"

"Yes, there is something wrong with the encrypted line." Bruges smiled and said seriously: "I swear, I will never delay the call to you next time."

"Huh? Why does this sound strange?" Ronan thought.

The two chatted for a few words, and soon arrived at their destination.There were no robbers along the way, it seems that the military department is really too strict about its own security.Looking down at the buildings below, Ronan suddenly remembered something: "Wait, drive back."

"what happened?"

"I didn't bring a gift." Ronan said angrily, "I was so happy that I forgot. I'll go back and get it."

Bruges smiled: "It's okay, I prepared two copies."

Each of them took a gift, and they disembarked and arrived at the director's residence—it was a beautiful house with a small garden in front, which was very tidy.Although the building itself is not very luxurious, it is already perfect in Ronan's view.They walked all the way through the flower-arched path, and Bruges knocked on a white door.While waiting, Ronan was slightly nervous and straightened his neckline.The director's face appeared in front of him, what would he say?Will you be angry at yourself for cheating and leaving without saying goodbye?Among all the people in the hospital, the director expected the most from him, and it was him that Ronan wanted to disappoint the most.

It was the director who opened the door himself, and he was overwhelmed with surprise when he saw the two guests.Bruges had greeted him long ago, but he didn't expect to see Ronan again.Seeing the anxious Ronan, he didn't say anything, but just patted him on the shoulder.The moment he touched his big hand, Ronan's heart relaxed and he jumped up steadily.

The director invited the two into the house.Bruges and Ronan put down their presents and sat down in the living room.Only then did Ronan discover that there was another master there.He was about the same age as the Director, very similar in appearance to Gray, only the same blond hair had faded as he got older.He is surprisingly kind, without the usual domineering attitude of males.He welcomed them both with equal enthusiasm, and Brugues knew both of them well.

The director was very enthusiastic and left the two of them to have a warm lunch.There are no servants in the director's house either.It was the director who cooked the meal himself. Bruges rolled up his sleeves and wanted to help him, but he kicked him out.Ronan and Yuko were chatting in the living room.Facing such an earnest male son, Ronan felt restrained in front of his elders for a long time. Basically, male son asked and Ronan answered.

Soon, lunch was on the table.I didn't expect the director's cooking skills to be very good.The two were full of praise, and the four had a warm lunch together.

After lunch, the four sat in the small garden to take a rest.Although the director is no longer working in the hospital, he still takes care of everything meticulously.There is no aging that ordinary people show after retirement.He was wearing a vest, his eyes were half-closed, his silver hair fluttered in the gentle breeze, and his spouse was sitting beside him.

Everyone inevitably mentioned the male club.Ronan had never met the director's spouse in the club, and he seemed to see his doubts. He smiled and said, "I'm already past that age. Now, I can finally do what I want to do as I want." He stretched out a hand and held the director's hand, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

Compared with the speed when they came, the two of them were not in a hurry on the way back.Bruges set the autopilot and chose an extremely high course, and the Phantom flew back at a leisurely speed.Baiyun passed them by the side of the window.

"What's it like to be a reserve king?" Ronan leaned back in his chair and asked with his arms under his head.

"Hmm... probably like holding a ten-year million-dollar national bond that cannot be traded." Bruges replied. "Everyone will give you credit on its face value. But you and others know very well that it will take a long time before it can be cashed." He thought for a while and added: "Besides, there is a little Vertigo, and a little bit of fear. Although I knew from a young age that if nothing else happened, I would be in that seat. But actually touching this double-edged sword still makes me feel creepy and thrilling. You experience that Tao Taoran's feeling? I am restraining myself not to be swallowed up by it like my parents."

Ronan didn't expect Bruges to be so frank with him. Even his best friend might not be able to say such things. You're so vigilant, I thought you'd think you deserved it all. After all, you're the Crown Prince. Isn't it natural that the situation changes and the mentality change?"

"Nothing is deserved." Brueges turned his head, pushed aside a strand of curly hair on his forehead, and looked directly at Ronan: "Do you think I've changed?"

Ronan stared at him carefully, his gaze streaked across his broad forehead, deep and energetic eyes, and high bridge of nose - with a calm smile on his face - and finally stayed on his on the chin.

"I didn't see it." Ronan shook his head: "I just saw that he became more handsome. There is an old saying in our hometown that power is the best aphrodisiac for people like you. Is it true?" Although not I am envious, but the person in front of me is calm and self-reliant, and he is a confident and firm person at first glance.This kind of person will not be easily shaken, but it is often the persistence of this kind of person that makes history turn around on the original path.

"No." Bruges laughed, showing his beautiful white teeth, and his eyes became crescents: "Love is it."

Ronan thought he had already been rejected by the male club, and he would not be able to go back until the beginning of next month.Who knows, within a few days, he was summoned back again.This time it is for the [-]th anniversary celebration of the Male Club.Because it is a very rare centennial celebration, it is extremely grand.Not only did the minister attach great importance to it, but the officials and officials made careful preparations. It is said that even His Majesty himself will be present in person.

Therefore, needless to say how dedicated the person in charge of this matter is, even a paroled son like Ronan will be summoned back to participate in the ceremony, just to show off.

The night before the ceremony, Ronan got a call from Bruges.

"I'm here this time to ask for your help."

It was always Ronan who bothered Brueges, and Brueges seldom troubled him.Glad to finally be able to help Bruges with something, he agreed, "No problem."

There seemed to be a pause on the phone, and then he said, "You haven't heard what I said."

Ronan laughed: "You're not going to hurt me, are you?"

Ronan seemed very happy when he heard a chuckle from the other end of the phone.Next, Bruges explained that the identity has been exposed, and there is no point in hiding it.Therefore, the House of Elders asked him to attend some celebrations earlier.He will need to attend the male club's celebration in a few days.Because it is an activity of the male club, the company of the male is required.Since there was no spouse to invite, he had to ask Ronan to accompany him.

Ronan listened to him, it was not a big deal.Ronan once again agreed: "No problem. It happens that I also want to participate. See you tomorrow then."

"Are you sure? I know you don't want to cause misunderstandings," Bruges confirmed on the phone.

"It's nothing." Ronan said indifferently: "My current reputation—even if we hug each other in public, everyone will not misunderstand it. It's you, don't ruin your reputation because of me."

Over there, Bruges seemed relieved: "Thank you. I just don't want to appear at the celebration with other male sons."

Ronan joked: "What's the big deal for me? You can contact Erica. He is your ex-fiancé. According to my opinion, he still has a little love for you."

Although he knew that Ronan couldn't see it, on the other end of the phone, Bruges still shook his head: "I just want to invite you."
