God said, let there be light

The week before the third trial was very peaceful, and for Fan Luoyi, it was extremely busy. The only "accident" was that Lu Xinchuan found out about his relationship with Byrne and asked him to take him home for dinner tomorrow.

Fan Luoyi hung up the phone and took a deep breath. Lu Xinchuan said that Lu An accidentally mentioned it, but with his toes, he knew it must be Lin Jianyao. Fan Luoyi asked her to keep it a secret, and she would not tell it by herself. Lu Xinchuan, so he can only use Lu An.

Fan Luoyi left the work to Yang Su and Peng Hao, and got off work early to go home.But this early is only the normal off-duty time.

There was a traffic jam during rush hour on Friday, and when he got home, Van Roy saw Byrne's electric motorcycle parked in the parking space, and knew that he had returned.Fan Roy sat in the car, lit a cigarette, and the pale smoke quickly filled the small space in the car, wrapping Fan Roy's whole body.

Although Fan Roy came to Byrne for the purpose of getting married, signed the agreement, and moved in, but when it came time to "meet the parents", he still couldn't help but feel conflicted. He didn't like being controlled by others. , live like a marionette.But after thinking about it, he was not losing money by exchanging marriage for freedom. At least Byrne didn't ask for 2 million in compensation.

Fan Roy laughed at himself, stubbed out his cigarette, locked the car and went upstairs.

Opening the door, the living room was empty. Fan Roy changed his shoes and heard Zed's voice coming from another living room to the east.

"Compared with the original picture, judging by the color and shape, this piece should be in the seventh row, column G. This piece should be in the tenth row, column C...this piece No.13, row F, and column..."

"Zed," Byrne interrupted Zed, the robot butler, "is the soup ready?"

"Simmering, 13 minutes and [-] seconds remaining."

"Zed, go watch the pot."

"Mr. Byrne, I have set the auto shut-off and will remind you 3 minutes in advance. I can help you complete 5% of the puzzle in 35 minutes."

"Zed..."

"Yes, Mr. Byrne."

"I'll do the puzzle myself."

"Yes, Mr. Byrne."

Fan Roy couldn't help but burst out laughing, his robot butler was disgusted by Byrne, it was really funny that he talked to the robot butler in such a tactful way.

Byrne heard the laughter in the distance and turned his head, watching Fan Roy walk in.

"You're back, it's early today." Byrne greeted Fan Roy with a smile, then turned to Zed and said, "Go and cook more dishes. Do you know what your master likes to eat?"

"Okay, Mr. Byrne." Zed moved from Byrne to Van Loy, and asked, "Master, Mr. Byrne made chicken soup for cooking noodles. The ingredients at home include green peppers, potatoes, and carrots." , lettuce, green vegetables, purple cabbage, tomatoes, eggs, beef tenderloin, ribeye steak, inch-cut lamb chops, pork pork bones, cod, what do you like to eat?"

"You don't need to cook too much, just cook the noodles."

"Good host."

Byrne stood up and walked towards Fan Luoyi. He should have thought of it. Zed didn't know what Fan Luoyi liked to eat. When he first came, the refrigerator at home was empty, but the wine cabinet was full. Ask Zed Fan Luoyi Yi likes to drink what kind of wine, there must be a clear answer.

"I filled the fridge and I'll go home and have dinner later."

"Okay." Fan Roy smiled slightly and nodded, he seemed unable to refuse.If he refuses, won't he be able to go back to his home before dinner in the future?Just to avoid Byrne?How ridiculous.Moreover, Byrne's sentence is a declarative sentence, not an interrogative sentence.

"What do you like to eat?"

"It will be all right."

Byrne raised his eyebrows: "That's okay, I'll see how to do it." After a long time, you will always know.

"What were you playing with Zed just now?" Fan Roy took a few steps forward, and saw a huge jigsaw puzzle spread out on the ground, and the borders were not even finished.

"Kill time."

Fan Roy picked up the original picture on the coffee table. The ice field and aurora are extremely gorgeous. If you look carefully, there are many details, like a photo.

"what is this?"

"It's the aurora in Hogg's ice and snow season. It's beautiful, right?"

"You took the picture?"

"Yeah. When I was studying, I sneaked out of the bunker with my classmates to take a photo, and I almost died of freezing outside. It's really stupid."

Fan Roy kept looking at the original picture. It turned out that Hogg's ice and snow season was so beautiful. He smiled and said, "It's beautiful."

"I'll take you back next time."

Fan Luoyi's smile froze for a moment, and he didn't respond.

Byrne didn't seem to notice it, turned around and walked out, and said at the same time: "The chicken soup should be ready, let's go out for dinner."

Fan Roy put down the original picture of the puzzle, heaved a sigh of relief, and looked back at the back of Byrne walking towards the kitchen. The Alpha of the storm group was not what he imagined at all. Did he choose the right one or the wrong one?

It was Alpha, surnamed Byrne, who met Lin Jianyao's requirements, signed the agreement, and didn't make trouble for him, so that's fine.

Van Roy went out, sat down at the dining table, and waited for the meal to be served.

The hot noodle soup was served in front of Fan Luoyi. The chicken noodle soup was served with some green leafy vegetables. It seemed too simple, but it seemed like a home-cooked dinner. Originally, it was only dinner for Byrne alone, and there was no need for big fish and meat.

"Do you eat like this every night?"

Byrne looked up at Fan Roy, and said with a chuckle, "Not necessarily, it depends on your mood."

"You also eat like this in the army?"

"If you are in the army, you eat in the cafeteria most of the time, and it is too troublesome to cook by yourself."

"..." Fan Roy seemed to realize something, and didn't ask any more questions. Byrne really regarded this place as his own home. Not only was he rude, but he was also very casual. On the contrary, the questions Fan Roy asked became strange. It's weird.

"What about you? Always work overtime and don't go home for dinner?"

"The apartment has butler ordering service."

"Just the business meal from last time?" Byrne had eaten it once, and it was hard to imagine what it would be like to eat that thing every day.

"There are also takeaways. Zed can simply cook some semi-finished products. If you are too busy, nourishment."

"...the ones in the kitchen cupboard?"

"Ah."

"..." Byrne looked at Fan Luoyi very speechless, he thought that those nutritional supplements were supplements for the estrus period, and Fan Luoyi could have dinner!If he continues to "evolve" in this way, he will probably be able to be like Zed, just charge it, and be environmentally friendly and pollution-free.

Fan Roy didn't feel anything, no matter how simple a person's life is, he doesn't have so many requirements for food.An occasional chicken noodle soup is certainly good too.

He stood up and went to the wine cabinet, pulled it out and took a look, it seemed that no wine would go well with chicken noodle soup.The chicken soup is stewed so clear, fresh and thick that it tastes bad if you take a sip of the wine. A waste of chicken soup is a waste of wine.Van Roy slowly pushed the wine cabinet back.

Byrne pursed his lips, holding back a smile, followed him into the kitchen, poured two glasses of water with ice, and handed one to Fan Roy.

"is it okay?"

Fan Roy reached out to take it, and couldn't help laughing: "Thank you."

Back at the dinner table, Van Roy said to Byrne, "Make time for tomorrow afternoon and evening."

"Huh? Yes."

"Go to Lu's house once."

Byrne nodded and didn't ask anything, not because he didn't want to ask but because he didn't know where to start or how to ask.

When Fan Luoyi mentioned Lu's house, his tone seemed to be evasive and evasive intentionally or unintentionally. What he said was to go to Lu's house once, instead of going back.He needs to treat his marriage as a business, and it must have something to do with the Lu family.Byrne said he would cooperate, and if there was anything he needed to know, Van Roy would probably tell him, and he probably wouldn't be able to find anything else if he asked.

Sure enough, after a while, Fan Luoyi continued: "My father died in an accident when I was seven years old, and the Lu family adopted me. My adoptive father, Lu Xinchuan, worked in the second office, and my adoptive mother, Lin Jianyao, was the second child of the Lu family. You should be familiar with Lu An, the boss Lu Zhuo works as a lawyer in the Legal Aid Office of the Lunsa Supreme Court."

Byrne listened carefully, the Lu family is full of public positions, from the second intelligence department, combat troops to the court, it can be regarded as a complete set of military and political affairs.He belatedly discovered that the party at which he first met Fan Luoyi was probably for a blind date for Fan Luoyi. Except for Teng Yue's heirs, they were all Alphas from the First Combat Army, and their families also had military and political backgrounds. Even he himself has a surname of "Byrne".

Fan Luoyi said that he was the "first choice", is it because he had to compromise with the Lu family, but wanted to fight one last time, so he could only choose himself who is farthest from the word "military and political"?

Byrne ate the noodle soup slowly, but suddenly tasteless.

"Why me?" Byrne put down his chopsticks. He knew it was a stupid question, but he couldn't help but want to ask.

"Huh? What?"

"Why do you think I'm the best person?"

Van Roy didn't know why Byrne suddenly asked this question again. He had told the truth when they first talked.

He knew the answer to Byrne's own question: "Because you need an Alpha, a partner, who has status, and the family status can't be too high..."

Byrne sighed, and now he understands that what Fan Roy meant was the method of elimination.In fact, it has nothing to do with whether it is the Alpha of the storm group or not.Really, it hurts my self-esteem.

Byrne stood up and said, "I'm full, I'm going back to my room first."

Fan Roy looked at Byrne walking up the stairs very inexplicably. After thinking for a while, he still couldn't understand why he was suddenly in a bad mood. He told the truth about the situation of the Lu family, and he didn't lie to him. How did he provoke him?
