Chapter 26
After finishing speaking, Feng Huai picked up Lin Ye's wine glass, and under the watchful eyes of the two, slowly drank the wine in the glass.
Ye Siming raised his eyebrows, met Feng Huai's gaze, and said with a broken smile: "Feng Huai, this is Planet Sea Blue's exclusive champagne. Brother Lin must have never tried it. Is it appropriate for you to deprive him of the fun?"
Feng Huai half-closed his eyes, slowly put down his wine glass, parted his thin lips lightly, and retorted unceremoniously.
"Are you sure it's fun and not rude to persuade people who don't know how to drink?"
There was no trace of warmth in the voice, which chilled the hearts of those around.
Is it their illusion?Senior Feng Huai is... angry?
In the cognition of military school students, although senior Feng Huai and senior Ye Siming belong to the command department and the other belongs to the engineering department, both of them are outstanding in their respective majors, and both have military ranks, so even if they do not overlapEven if they talk a lot, they will leave a bit of thin air for each other.
But... What's the matter with this strong smell of fire|powder now?And the source of the conflict... seems to be Junior Lin from the Mecha Department?!
Ye Siming laughed lightly, half-covering his eyes with broken hair, with an unfathomable expression: "Junior Lin didn't even refuse, why are you in such a hurry to speak for him?"
The atmosphere became more and more stalemate, more and more people gathered around the two of them, but no one dared to step forward to join in the fun.After all, those are Senior Feng Huai and Senior Ye Siming!
At this moment, Lin Ye spoke.
"Senior Ye, thank you for your kindness." He stood up holding the wine glass, "I really can't drink much."
As soon as these words came out, the color in Ye Siming's eyes darkened a little, and his expression became flickering.
"So," Lin Ye paused, and said with a smile, "Senior Ye, do you mind if I use fruit juice instead?"
Ye Siming was slightly taken aback, and the curve of his lips deepened a bit: "Of course I don't mind."
Lin Ye raised his chin lightly and motioned to the attendant: "A glass of orange juice."
The attendant hesitated for a few seconds, looking at Feng Huai's expression with trepidation, he was a little uncertain for a while.
Anyone can guess that Chief Feng doesn't want Lin Ye and Ye Siming to drink, so what's the difference if they switch to fruit juice?
If you give it, you will obviously offend Feng Huai, if you don't give it, you will offend Ye Siming. This choice is difficult!Why would one of his squires passing by by chance have to make such a difficult choice?
The attendant swallowed his throat and said with difficulty: "Major Feng..."
After all, Feng Huai's military rank was higher than Ye Siming's, so it would be safer to wait for Major Feng to speak.
Feng Huai's eyes darkened slightly, and an unknown emotion surged in his eyes.
Pei Chen whispered behind him: "Sir..."
After a while.
"Give him a refill."
The tense strings in the air suddenly loosened, and countless people breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of their hearts.
The attendant wiped off his cold sweat, and quickly handed Lin Ye a glass of orange juice.
Lin Ye took the cup, raised his hand slightly, and drank the juice in the cup in front of everyone.
After finishing the drink, Lin Ye put down his wine glass and said to Feng Huai, "Major Feng, I'm not feeling well. If I want to leave early, I won't accompany you."
After speaking, Lin Ye put on his military uniform and left the venue without further words.
"Sir?" Pei Chen tentatively asked Feng Huai softly, "Chasing?"
Feng Huai looked at Lin Ye's leaving back from a distance, his icy blue eyes were cast with a shadow, and in the end he didn't chase after him.
It was still hot in September, but the wind at night was very cool, which brought trembling to Lin Ye's water-stained skin.
Lin Ye subconsciously pulled up the collar of the military uniform.
There was a sound of heavy footsteps behind him.
Lin Ye frowned slightly, and instinctively raised his vigilance, but his thoughts were interrupted by his voice.
"Brother Lin."
It's Ye Siming.
Lin Ye stopped: "Senior Ye?"
Ye Siming held the general uniform on his shoulder with one hand, raised his eyebrows slightly: "Feng Huai is chasing you?"
The question is quite straightforward and uncomfortable.
"Senior Ye is worrying too much," Lin Ye replied calmly, "I think Senior Feng is probably just out of safety considerations, I'm too..."
Lin Ye's voice stopped abruptly.
He was slightly taken aback, as if his heart had been hit by something.
How did Feng Huai know that he was allergic to alcohol and couldn't drink?
"In that case," Ye Siming's eyes became darker, a faint smile appeared on his lips, "Can I have the honor to pursue you?"
Lin Ye was slightly taken aback, but still declined without hesitation.
"Sorry, Senior Ye."
"Why not? At least give me a reason." Ye Siming looked calm and was not frustrated by his polite refusal.
Lin Ye was silent for a moment: "We are not familiar enough."
Ye Siming laughed shortly after hearing this: "Is that so? Because we don't know each other well?"
"Senior Ye," Lin Ye raised his eyes, met his gaze, and said in a very solemn tone, "I think communication should at least be based on mutual liking."
The moment he said these words, his heart ached a little, as if he had been stabbed by a blunt knife.
like?
But when he was with Feng Huai in the previous life, did Feng Huai like him?
"Emotions can also be cultivated slowly, can't they?" Ye Siming retorted him, "With me, we will get to know each other better, and I think we will have something to attract each other."
"But not yet," Lin Ye looked at him calmly, "At least I don't think it's so easy to cultivate relationships."
For Lin Ye, feelings are a momentary heartbeat, an unreasonable heartbeat, and an urge to serve the other party without hesitation.
Ye Siming's tone became playful: "What about Feng Huai?"
The moment the words fell, the blunt knife suddenly became sharp, slashing across Lin Yexin's old wound that had healed up long ago, leaving a bloody old scar.
Lin Ye's hands tightened slightly.
Ye Siming: "Do you like him?"
Lin Ye avoided his gaze and denied, "No."
Ye Siming didn't take it seriously, and slightly raised the corner of his mouth: "Since you like each other..."
Lin Ye interrupted him, and said coldly, "I think Senior Ye misunderstood, I don't mean that to Senior Feng."
He paused.
"He did the same to me."
"Oh?" Ye Siming looked at him with interest, "Really?"
"Senior Feng has a sweetheart for a long time," Lin Ye lowered his eyes, his fingers turned slightly white, "Besides, he is an Alpha and I am a Beta. We were originally incompatible, and there was no physical attraction."
Ye Siming was slightly taken aback, apparently he did not expect to hear this answer.
Feng Huai has a sweetheart?
Although he has never heard of this gossip, if it is true, it is undoubtedly the biggest opportunity for him.After all, in his eyes, Feng Huai is the biggest obstacle.As long as Feng Huai has a sweetheart, Lin Ye will not respond to Feng Huai, then he has the confidence to chase Lin Ye.
They would have been the most compatible partners.
"Have you dated Feng Huai?" Ye Siming asked him suddenly.
Lin Ye was startled, his eyes darkened, but he quickly restrained his emotions: "No."
Ye Siming couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and his mood suddenly improved a lot.
Having no relationship before means that even if Lin Ye has feelings for Feng Huai, it will not be too deep, and there will be no trauma caused by the breakup.
That would be easier.
"Well, I agree with what you said - you are indeed not suitable, but..." Ye Siming changed the subject and said meaningfully, "Who said that there is no physical attraction between Alpha and Beta?"
"Brother Lin." Ye Siming spoke slowly, with undisguised scorching eyes, like a top catcher keeping an eye on his prey.
"I appreciate you."
"I believe in Senior Ye's appreciation. But I think Senior Ye is just impulsive. I'm afraid even Senior himself is not sure how long this appreciation can last." Lin Ye's tone concealed a touch of self-mockery.
Feng Huai once said that he admired him, and he also said that he liked him, but the facts have proved that no matter how powerful Alpha is, it is difficult to overcome the impulse brought by the susceptible period.It doesn't matter to Lin Ye whether Feng Huai tagged Ling Han because he likes it, or whether he likes Ling Han after tagging him, they are not suitable, this is a fact.Even if there is no Ling Han, other Omega will appear sooner or later.
Ye Siming laughed: "It seems that I need a chance to prove myself?"
"Senior Ye," Lin Ye dragged his voice out for a long time this time, "You don't have to force anything that doesn't fit."
"Well, I agree with what you said," Ye Siming nodded, "However, whether it is suitable or not always needs an opportunity to test. At least we all worship Myojin, don't we?"
Lin Ye: ...I'm not, I don't, don't talk nonsense!!
Lin Ye coughed heavily: "Senior Ye."
He didn't expect Ye Siming to be so persistent, with a set of theories in his bones that no one could convince.
"Ok?"
"It's better for us to be friends."
"What kind of friend?" Ye Siming raised his eyebrows, and the ending sound was very long, with a faint hint.
Lin Ye was a little embarrassed: "This..."
Seeing his serious reaction, Ye Siming couldn't keep laughing anymore, and said seriously: "Since we are friends, I should have the right to go back to the dormitory with you, right?"
Lin Ye was relieved, and smiled: "Of course."
Lin Ye and Ye Siming were not in the same dormitory, so they separated when they reached the downstairs of the dormitory.Before leaving, Ye Siming deliberately told Lin Ye his dormitory number, saying that he could contact him whenever he needed something, but Lin Ye didn't take it too seriously, after all, his and Ye Siming's majors rarely overlap.
After returning to the dormitory, Lin Ye went to the bathroom to take a shower, and then changed into pajamas. When he came out, he bumped into Song Xiao coming back from the outside.
Many students would attend the military school dance, so Song Xiao and Chu Chen also went to join in the fun, but they were not members of the student union, so they didn't sit with Lin Ye at that time.
But the confrontation between Feng Huai and Ye Siming at the banquet was witnessed by the entire audience, how could Song Xiao not think about it?
He closed the dormitory door: "Brother Lin, haven't you slept yet?"
"Just finished taking a shower, sleep in a while."
"Oh." Song Xiao looked at him, hesitant to speak.As Lin Ye's closest buddy, before he left the ball, he was given a major task by countless people, asking him to find out what happened.He was under a lot of pressure, but when he really saw Lin Ye, he couldn't ask a word.
Before school started, Lin Ye obviously admired Feng Huai very much, but during this period of time, he felt more and more that Lin Ye had some kind of strong resistance to Feng Huai.His intuition told him that something might have happened between Lin Ye and Feng Huai.
"That...Brother Lin." Song Xiao said in embarrassment, thinking about how to say it more tactfully.
"There is a grudge, a personal grievance, and there is no way to reconcile. Are you satisfied?"
Song Xiao was taken aback for a moment.
This is too straightforward, right?!
etc.
What did Lin Ye say just now?
Personal grievances?
Is it really that serious?!
Before he could recover, he heard Lin Ye ask, "Has Feng Huai left?"
"Let's go." Song Xiao replied numbly, he hadn't recollected Lin Ye's answer just now.
Lin Ye responded, without any special reaction, and turned back to the room: "Sleep, you go to bed early too."
Song Xiao snapped back to his senses, his expression changed, and before he could speak, he heard a "bang" and Lin Ye closed the door.
"..." Oh shit.
At this moment, Song Xiao's terminal rang.
Messages came one after another.
"Brother Song, what's the situation? Did you ask?"
"What's going on with Lin Ye and Senior Feng?"
"Senior Feng, why do you care about Lin Ye so much?"
Song Xiao: ...
he asked.He knew it.
But can he say this answer?It is said that Lin Ye and Senior Feng have a personal grievance, tomorrow's forum should not be bombed!!
Song Xiao sighed and replied one by one: "I didn't ask anything."
At this moment, Song Xiao's terminal flickered and saw a piece of news that shocked him.
For a moment, he suspected that he was wrong.
Feng Huai: "Is he asleep?"
Senior Feng, Feng Huai?!
Lin Ye returned to the room, repeatedly recalling what Feng Huai said tonight.
And the last time at the bar, Feng Huai thought his reaction when drinking...
Feng Huai is not a person who likes to drink.On the contrary, because Feng Huai was too strict with himself, almost to a perverted level, he almost never drank alcohol.
The only time Lin Ye saw Feng Huai drinking was in front of Ji Weimian.
It was not long after they got married, Ji Weimian was Lin Ye's teacher, Lin Ye's adoptive father, and the only relative he recognized.That day Feng Huai took the initiative to drink in front of Ji Weimian, pouring down the scorching spirits, his expression did not change.
It wasn't until that time that Lin Ye knew that Feng Huai could drink so well.
Lin Ye is not a person who likes to show weakness, so he rarely tells people the reason why he can't drink. The reason why Feng Huai knew about it in his previous life was because he was a Beta but could smell other people's pheromones.
Once he and Feng Huai were on a mission together. The two of them went separately and went deep into the enemy's camp. One was to blow the head of the enemy leader, and the other was responsible for seizing control of the starship. Finally, the two met in the command room.
Because the enemy leader's pheromone smelled of high-purity spirits, Lin Ye was a little stressed at the time, and his murderous intentions were so heavy that he almost alarmed other people.
Fortunately, Feng Huai discovered it in time and prevented the accident from happening.After the mission was completed, he and Feng Huai returned to the fleet. That night, he leaned against Feng Huai and slept in the command room.Huai scolded him mercilessly, because he hadn't told him about such a serious matter.
But Feng Huai did not punish him.
For Feng Huai who always regards military regulations as his life, this is really rare.
"General Feng, if this matter gets out, you, the officer, will be punished." That day, he seemed to be holding on to Feng Huai's handle, and he was very proud, even though he knew that it was his fault in the first place., but Feng Huai just didn't punish him.
I remember that Feng Huai said coldly to him at that time: "Stop talking nonsense to me."
Lin Ye put on the bandage skillfully, and didn't take it seriously: "Otherwise, why don't you try punishing me?"
He just won't rely on Feng Huai.
Feng Huai frowned deeply: "Tell me nonsense again, believe it or not, I'm here to kill you?"
Lin Ye raised his eyebrows: "I'm a Beta, what can you do with me? You can't mark..."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a tingling sensation in his neck.
Warm lips covered his neck, and an electric current flowed through his body along the blood, making his breathing quicken.
He really suspected that Feng Huai was a dog in his previous life, and he could talk to a Beta.
Caught off guard, he was slapped, but he refused to admit defeat and deliberately responded to Feng Huai: "It's useless to bite me, I don't have glands..."
Before he finished speaking, a sharp tingling sensation came from his neck, blocking all his words.
Lin Ye cursed in his heart.
Feng Huai really bit him like an Omega.
"Why? Panic?" Lin Ye pushed him, looked at him, raised his eyebrows slightly, "Don't tell me you're thinking about Omega."
At that time, he said so, but he felt very distressed.He knew that Alphas would be very manic during the susceptible period. Alphas with higher mental strength would have more severe symptoms during the susceptible period, and unlike Omegas, they could rely on inhibitors to relieve them, and could only rely on their own willpower to survive.
I don't know which word of his annoyed Feng Huai, that time Feng Huai called his name very coldly.
"Lin Ye." The voice was deep, as if punishing a subordinate who committed a crime.
"What?" Lin Ye mumbled.Every time he sees Feng Huai like this, he also feels very uncomfortable.
At that time, he didn't know the relationship between Feng Huai and Ling Han, and he became jealous just because of a susceptibility period. He always felt that Feng Huai would long for an Omega to help him solve his needs.
But he also knew that the jealousy was unreasonable, so even if he said it, it was only in the form of a joke.
"You are not allowed to say such things in the future." Feng Huai's tone obviously suppressed his displeasure.
Lin Ye was taken aback, his mood at that moment was as if the clouds opened and the moon shone, and the sun shone into the darkness.
Tsk.
Feng Huai actually cared more about this than he did.
Okay.
he thought.
He wished there was no word Omega between them.
...
The memories are too sweet, the more realistic and ironic.
Up to now, Lin Ye knows that Feng Huai has someone more important in his heart, and he has already stopped expecting anything, but Feng Huai will know that he can't drink, but it always makes him feel puzzled, as if the most important thing is missing in the strategic layout.Information.
With a "ding", the terminal beeped.
It's a message from Ming.
Ming: "Are you asleep?"
The moment he saw this news, the past events that occupied his mind were swept away, which made Lin Ye's tense nerves relax.
He looked at the message, moved his finger, and entered the information.
Huihui: "Not yet."
Ming: "Stay up so late, do you have something on your mind?"
Lin Ye subconsciously wanted to reply, but suddenly remembered that Ming was also from the First Military Academy, and he was probably at the ball at that time.Because of Ming's sensitivity to intelligence, this question suddenly became more meaningful in Lin Ye's eyes.
Lin Ye didn't want to talk about this with him, so he took the initiative to avoid the topic.
Huihui: "I'm looking at the data packet you sent me last time."
Ming is a person who knows how to measure, so he followed his words and asked.
Ming: "How's the analysis going? I've also done some research during this time, and the preliminary conclusion is that it's a black mecha, but after comparing the data in the Empire's information database, I found that it can't be matched with the Imperial Abandoned Warehouse for the time being."
Lin Ye looked at the words on the screen thoughtfully.
empire……
The other party first used the public screen of the military academy to publicly express his love, and now he mentioned the imperial mecha. All kinds of information hinted to him that he was the same imperial man as himself, and had the same position.
But... Could this be a wrong inducement, a trap?
Emotionally, he doesn't doubt Ming, but his reason makes him have to be cautious.
Since the other party has not concealed his superficial identity, he might as well ask along, maybe he can find a flaw.
Hui Hui: "Are you from the Empire?"
There was silence for a few minutes.
Ming: "I thought you knew already?"
Lin Ye hovered his finger on the screen without replying.He knew the other party would go on.
Ming: "Is it because I didn't give enough information? Or are you worried about me?"
Lin Ye typed "Are you in Planet Sea Blue?", but hesitated when he wanted to send it.
The other party has hinted at him in various ways. At this time, he asked from the Empire to Planet Sea Blue, and then to the First Military Academy. It was meaningless except to show that he was overly cautious.
So he got straight to the point.
Huihui: "Which major?"
This time, Lin Ye waited for a long time for the other party's reply.
Ming: "What do you think?"
Ambiguous answers, either the other party does not want to be exposed, or enjoys the game of being guessed.
Lin Ye was really not sure about this answer.
According to normal thinking, the engineering department is the most likely, but Lin Ye himself, as the number one anchor of the Interstellar Hacking League, belongs to the mecha department.Since Ming is interested in letting him guess, at least half of them may not be engineering department like him.
Hui Hui: "Since you don't want to say it, don't force it."
Ming: "Tsk, it's just a guess. It doesn't matter if you guess wrong."
Hui Hui: "Okay, Department of Intelligent Medicine."
Ming: "...Are you really guessing wildly?"
Hui Hui: "Otherwise?"
Ming: "I really admire you."
Although the other party said so, he still didn't take the initiative to tell Lin Ye his major.It seemed that the other party didn't want to expose himself completely, and——enjoyed the pleasure of chatting with him behind his back.
Lin Ye wasn't worried about this. In the process of chatting with this person, he was basically sure that the other person was indeed a student of the First Military Academy, and it was enough for him to know this information.
He didn't reply, but the other party sent a message again, taking the initiative to return to the previous topic.
Ming: "Since it can't match the mecha in the abandoned warehouse, it is very likely that it is not a black mecha, but a force outside the empire, such as Zerg, Star Thief, or even the Federation."
Lin Ye: ...
Originally, the topic he used to prevaricate the dance party has now become a shield for the other party to conceal his identity.
That's right, it's best for them to talk about it.
Huihui: "Not necessarily. There is another possibility—someone in the empire secretly stole the blueprints of the mechs to produce mechas that are not under the supervision of the military."
Ming: "This idea is too bold. Do you have someone to suspect?"
Huihui: "Not yet. However, in the actual combat exercise not long ago, the signal shielding device that appeared in the training base is very likely to be installed on these mechs."
The presence of signal shielding devices will also affect the capture of data packets.
Ming: "If you want to be sure, there is a way."
Hui Hui: "What?"
Ming: "Feng Huai must have retained the information of the signal blocking device and the complete data package of the attack on Planet Sea Blue."
Lin Ye: ...
Feng Huai.
That was the last person he wanted to interact with.
Ming: "Just kidding. There should be corresponding information in the engineering department."
Huihui: "Engineering department?"
Ming: "Hmm. Do you know anyone in the engineering department?"
Huihui: "...I'll think about it."
Ming: "Okay, go to bed early."
After retreating from the terminal, Lin Ye rested his arms on his forehead and looked towards the ceiling.
Engineering department... Then there is only Ye Siming.
There was no class the next morning, and when Lin Ye left the dormitory, Song Xiao was still washing up, knowing that he was going out, he couldn't help being a little surprised.
"Brother Lin, why don't you go out so early when you don't have class?"
"I have some personal matters to attend to."
"Oh." Song Xiao didn't say anything, he lowered his head and pressed the terminal, as if he was chatting with someone.
Lin Ye said, turned the doorknob, opened the door and left the dormitory.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived downstairs, he bumped into a familiar figure.
As soon as his face changed, he stopped and his eyes met him.
It's Feng Huai.
The author has something to say:
Tomorrow is still double change at midnight
