Chapter 226 Promise farther (6)

The fireworks exploded at this moment, and there was a wave of cheers from below.

On the observation deck, Jiang Jianming opened his eyes wide.

With the glare of fireworks, he saw Ryan's burning eyes.

He tried to force a smile, but couldn't.

He only whispered, "Did Your Highness drink too much?"

Ryan tightened his fingers on the railing and said in a low voice, "I did drink."

The curly long eyelashes flickered for a moment, then raised again, "But that's to say these words to you, Jiang, I'm sober."

"Will you be my lover?"

Jiang Jianming suddenly felt a pain in his heart. He lowered his head and gasped softly, only to feel as if he had been stabbed, and what came out was not blood, but endless sadness.

But my little highness, he thought blankly, my life is running out, and you...

Jiang Jianming pursed his lips and swallowed the words that he almost said.

He reached out and stroked Ryan's long curly hair tousled by the wind.

"Your Highness, your understanding of this world has only just begun. It is unfair to you to talk about the word love now."

Ryan squeezed his fingers hard: "I don't understand."

Jiang Jianming looked at the starry sky in the distance, "I mean, Your Highness still has a long way to go. You will meet many, many people, and then you will discover how vast this world is."

He could only suggest this euphemistically, if he said that he would not live long, the person in front of him would definitely be blown away.

But these words also cut his throat like a blade, smeared with pain that he should not have tasted.

"There will be someone better than me, someone more suitable than me, and someone who will stay with you longer than me. Your Highness, you deserve better."

Jiang Jianming gently held Ryan's hand.

Very warm, His Highness is much warmer than him.

This also means that when they are clasping their fingers in the cold winter, it will always be Ryan who will be frozen.

It would be nice if it was the season of warm spring flowers. Jiang Jianming looked at Lean's eyes and couldn't help but be in a trance for a moment, if they met in spring...

"Please wait a little longer. Maybe in the New Year's Day in a few decades, His Royal Highness will hold his partner's hand and remember that one night many years ago, a disabled human said this to you."

"At that time, you will miss me, but no longer love me."

"Perhaps?" Ryan frowned.

"As long as you promise now, there will never be a possibility."

Jiang Jianming was silent.

The young monarch seemed a little desperate, he stepped forward and clasped the disabled human by the shoulders, "I know what you are worrying about, don't think about it, you don't have to think about those messy things."

"I accept injustice."

"I bear all the consequences."

"I will remove all obstacles."

"I just want to love you now," Ryan wrapped his arms around Jiang Jianming's thin back, his Adam's apple rolled, and said hoarsely, "I want to... kiss you."

He lowered his head, touched the person in his arms with his forehead, and tangled like a small beast, his eyes were wet and bright, "Is it okay?"

"..."

Jiang Jianming opened his mouth to speak, but couldn't - Ryan's thumb suddenly pressed against his lips.

"do not."

Perhaps realizing something from the look of the crippled human being, Ryan refused to listen to that answer, and he said in a low voice, "Don't talk about it now."

... Jiang Jianming closed his eyes and felt the skin of his thumb linger on his lips.

There was a deep and depressed voice in his ears, and the young man's breath was heavier and faster than usual, and vaguely brushed against his eyelids.

"I'm still a few months away from my coming-of-age day. Just let me know in advance, you don't have to answer right now."

"The next battle is to fight Wall, and the time is just right."

Ryan rubbed the tip of Jiang Jianming's nose again, and his hot lava desire was restrained in the depths of his words, "After the triumph, I will tell you again, and then you will answer."

Having said that, the young man reluctantly pulled out and retreated. The cold wind of the winter night blew away the temperature between the two.

Jiang Jianming shuddered.

There was a bit of confusion and fear in his heart.

This is completely different from what he envisioned back then.

When Ryan kissed him for the first time, although he was frightened, he really felt like a little brat.

Although he has the power to kill hundreds of people in an instant, his heart is straightforward and pure. Can be deceived, but also scare.

Ryan later told him that he spent his childhood in the Grey Owl Laboratory and the palace in Yongyuan.

Jiang Jianming immediately understood that it was not a place for people to stay.

So he used to think that as long as he kept the cub by his side and raised him seriously after two or three years, he would lose that kind of interest in himself.

Now that a few years have passed, Ryan has indeed matured a lot, from a little monster to a fairly decent young monarch.

But their relationship is getting closer day by day, and Ryan has never shown such a strong attachment and desire for the second person.

Jiang Jianming began to be afraid, he was afraid that His Highness really loved him.

He was afraid that there would be such a New Year's Day decades later, Ryan was no longer an innocent little monster, but a man who had experienced vicissitudes of life.

The man still loves him.

At that time, the east wind entered the law, and there was a lot of music.

The man walked through the dazzling lights, looking for a place to push away the festive crowd, he was looking for himself, he wanted to repeat his love for you, and wanted to be coquettish and ask for a light kiss.

Or just entangle your fingers, rub your ears and temples, and secretly enjoy half a moment of time between each other's eyebrows.

But he is already dead.

As early as many years ago, when men were still teenagers.

Time waits for no one, and the celebration of victory on the blue mother planet lasted only one night. When Area A was illuminated by the sun again, the army had regrouped.

Because the uprising on the blue mother planet has been going on in a secret state, and the riot happened too fast, the opponent surrendered before it developed into a starship battle. The Empire has not realized that something happened to the Blue Mother Star, and it is this poor information that is robbed.

"After all, Blue Mother Star lacks resources and cannot be a base for the uprising. Coupled with the large number of civilians, once the interstellar battle starts, it is easy to be tied."

Jiang Jianming moved his finger and marked a red sign on the three-dimensional star map, "We are going to take Wall."

Wall Star City is located in the sub-galaxy of the empire, and it is rich in resources. Next to it is Eden Star City, known as the "big granary". The cosmic environment is difficult to attack and easy to defend. The only problem is the frequent infestation of alien creatures, so it has always been called the frontier wall.

"Hey, how dare you say..."

Lin Ge crossed his legs and stared at the star map with a sullen face, "Dawn, this place is not easy to fight."

"So this time is our only chance. Only when the insurgents stabilize their footsteps in Wall Star City can they hope to compete with the Empire."

Jiang Jianming quickly glanced at Ryan beside him with his peripheral vision, "This is also what Your Highness meant."

Tang Ren scratched his head in embarrassment: "However, Your Highness, none of our group has any experience in commanding a starship battle in a serious way, and we go directly to attack the big star city. Who will lead the troops?"

"I."

"I."

Ryan and Jiang Jianming spoke in unison.

"..."

In an instant, no one dared to speak in the conference room.

"..." The corners of Ryan's lips tightened, his fingers pressed against his forehead, and he was obviously a little nervous.

After a few seconds, he closed his eyes and took a breath, and forced himself to put on a sublime air: "Aslan, you won't go this time, stay on the Blue Mother Star for us."

Jiang Jianming's expression turned cold: "If we can capture the Wall Star City, it will be the base camp of the rebel army in the future. What am I doing in Blue Mother Star?"

Ryan laughed in anger: "Do you have any points? Your body can't go to the front line, Wall is full of alien creatures, you're going to die!"

"His Royal Highness, I am not lacking in the consciousness of the shroud of horse leather."

"you!"

"Oh, don't, don't..."

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Lin Ge hurriedly tried to persuade him, "Dawn, listen to me, now that the communication projection is so convenient, you can also command the fleet from the rear. You stay at the Blue Mother Star to recuperate, and wait a moment or two. In 2009, the situation in Wall was settled, the alien creatures were expelled, and we will pick you up again."

But she also knew that this was fooling people.

The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and interstellar communication is easily disconnected or eavesdropped. It is possible to provide some strategic advice from the rear, but in actual combat, it is absolutely impossible to wait for instructions from someone who is not on the scene.

The Blue Home Star doesn't make a lot of strategic sense. Jiang Jianming stayed here, that is, to help the rebels guard their birthplace and human home planet, that's all.

What Lin Ge knew, it was even more impossible for Jiang Jianming not to know.

He took a deep look at Ryan, was silent for a moment, and did not persist.

"I obey His Highness's orders," he said.

Ryan's face immediately turned ugly, so gloomy that he was about to bite him.

But Jiang Jianming didn't give His Highness a chance to bite.

He got up and left.

In the evening of this day, the starship broke through the dusk and launched into the sky.

Jiang Jianming was sitting on the steps of his small ward. Seth hadn't seen him for many days, and kept barking, pulling his knees, sticking out his tongue, and wagging his tail.

"Good dog."

Jiang Jianming bent down, buried his face in Seth's soft fur, and thought to himself: It seems that the furthest he can go is here.

But maybe it's a good thing. After this separation, Ryan's feelings for him will naturally fade.

Maybe the next time we meet, there will be that "more suitable person" around His Highness.

Or maybe there is no next meeting, he will die quietly in this star city, leaving the urn to the triumphant army. Ryan might be sad, but who in the world has to suffer a bit or two?

He thought about it, and gradually felt sleepy. He couldn't bring himself to go back to the house, anyway, no one was looking after him anymore, Jiang Jianming simply lay in the rocking chair outside the small courtyard and closed his eyes.

He thought he would wake up like this.

So in the middle of the night, when Jiang Jianming was woken up by the barking and rumbling noises, he only felt a splitting headache and couldn't understand what happened.

Interspersed with Seth's excited "barking" sound, a familiar voice came from the sky——

"—Aslan!"

"!?"

Jiang Jianming wondered if he hadn't woken up, and the large white light shot from above his head stabbed people to the point of being unable to open their eyes. He barely looked through the gaps of his fingers, almost without cardiac arrest—

To kill him, that is the light of the mecha searchlight!

In mid-air, the cockpit of the mech was open. Ryan stood there against the wind and shouted at him solemnly, "Do you really want to go?"

"—Your Highness!?"

Jiang Jianming couldn't get up in one breath, and wished he could faint on the spot.

He staggered to his feet and shouted back, "You...you're crazy, where's the starship, where are the others, you came back halfway by yourself!?"

Ryan: "Do you really want to go?"

Jiang Jianming's eyes suddenly became dark, and he felt the blood vessels in his brain throbbing. If Ryan was in front of him now, he would probably really slap or kick him.

"Then do you know that you are already the leader of the rebel army and the monarch of hundreds of millions of people! If something goes wrong, what do you call others to do!?"

He raised his anger suddenly, his breath trembled, "You are really... acting out of order! All these years I taught you to be so self-willed!?"

"I'm not willful, I just changed my mind. I want you to be the commander-in-chief of the rebel army."

Ryan's face was expressionless, and the crystal bone controlled the mecha to slowly descend, "The commander will calm down first, and then he will get sick."

"You just...cough...cough...!"

"Look, I just said it."

Without any resistance, he was carried across by Ryan into the cockpit of the mecha, and then stuffed into the treatment cabin.

His Highness was probably afraid that he would really piss the disabled people to death, so he started to soft-hearted without saying a few words, guaranteeing that he would catch up with the large army, and the road would be safe.

Jiang Jianming still wanted to scold people, but an injection of anesthesia came in, and he immediately went limp, unable to speak.

Ryan put the lid on with ease: "I'm about to jump, sleep for a while. Seth, I'll ask someone to lead it, don't worry."

...

When he fell asleep and woke up again, the mecha had completed the transition, chasing the last distance of the large army along the route.

Jiang Jianming sat in the driver's seat, looking at the universe outside the alloy glass, Xinghan was empty and quiet.

Ryan squeezed his fingers and used a posture of "I broke the jar, do you still dare to jump into the mecha?", saying that he had announced to the entire rebel army that Dwayne Aslan was the commander of the entire army. .

Jiang Jianming said lightly: "I am a human with a residual crystal."

Ryan: "You have my crystal bone."

"That's yours, how can I count it?"

Jiang Jianming was both angry and funny, "His Royal Highness is not trying to please me with this, and let me agree to that matter?"

... Anyway, if you don't come back for this trip, the matter will definitely be out of the question.

Ryan's eyes flickered to hide the words in his heart, and he cleared his throat: "What are you thinking, this is a public business, that is a private matter."

"Whether you agree or not, you want to stay by my side in the first place, to be a lover is just to have more rights on that basis, such as kissing..."

"Okay!" Jiang Jianming quickly interrupted, "Those will be discussed later."

Ryan covered Jiang Jianming's face with his palm, "Then I won't speak, you sleep."

After a while, he whispered again: "I heard that Wall is rich in mechas. After the rebels occupy Wall, I will find a man-made mecha and give it to you."

"We'll equip it with two cockpits. The first cockpit is for you, and the interior looks like a treatment cabin. I can lock you in... The second cockpit is for me..."

Tiny mechs fly in the vast universe.

In the silence, the heartbeats of the two matched each other.

"Aslan?...Ginger?"

"have you slept."

When the breath beside him became long, Ryan raised his palm gently.

His eyes were complex and affectionate, staring at the pale young man who was asleep, as if he wanted to say something, but he still didn't say anything.

He straightened the broken hair on Jiang Jianming's forehead, pulled out the end of his beautifully shaped eyes, and suddenly moved.

Lai was silent for a long time.

He tapped lightly with his fingertips.

The water stains from the end of the young man's eyes were soaked.
