Chapter 25: We Haven’t Even Held Hands…
The Interstellar Observatory could observe the turbulence of the entire universe. The moment the heavy mechanical door opened, Ye Zhile looked inside with surprise. The control console inside was a diamond-shaped ring with various remote control buttons. The screens above displayed various large and small planets in the universe. The mechanical feel was extremely strong.
Ye Zhile dared not touch anything randomly. He stood in front of the control console, looking at the shining planets on the monitor. They were insignificant in the vast universe, yet appeared mysterious.
“Is this the location of the Federation?” Ye Zhile pointed vaguely at a place that looked like a house model on the monitor. Wei Xichu said, “Yes.”
“What about the Bit Star?” Ye Zhile asked.
Wei Xichu pointed to a small planet next to the Federation. “Here.”
Ye Zhile looked up. “I heard that the Bit Star is the God of Love. The people there take Cupid as their god. People who pledge their love there will be together for a lifetime.”
“If you have time, Young Master Ye can go take a look,” Wei Xichu said.
Ye Zhile shook his head, looking lonely. “Forget it. There are wars everywhere now. Who knows when there will be peace.”
Wei Xichu was silent for a moment. He said, “I’ll take Young Master Ye to the rooftop to have a look. You can see the entire capital from there.”
“Okay.”
Wei Xichu took Ye Zhile to the highest level. Ye Zhile was shocked by the sight as soon as he stepped out the door. From the top spire layer, one glance revealed cotton-white clouds, and the entire capital was in his eyes.
“Wow!” Ye Zhile lay on the railing. “So high… so beautiful.”
Wei Xichu accompanied Ye Zhile to watch the scenery up there. The teenager seemed very new to all this, walking around the spire a few times, essentially engraving the entire capital in his mind.
Afterward, Wei Xichu took Ye Zhile to several important departments. For example, the small department established by the Military and Political Ministries in the Supreme Leader’s Ministry specifically for timely communication with the Supreme Leader. Then the Supreme Leader’s Propaganda Department, specialized in announcing all instructions conveyed by the Supreme Leader. Finally, they went to the Ministry’s cafeteria.
Ye Zhile sat at the dining table, watching the elites coming and going in uniform uniforms, seriously serving food and eating, speaking softly even when conversing.
Seeing Wei Xichu return with his food, he lowered his voice and asked, “Is loud noise and laughing not allowed in the Supreme Leader’s Ministry?”
Wei Xichu obviously didn’t understand why Ye Zhile asked this until he saw the people the Young Master was referring to. He explained, “There is no such requirement. It’s just that only top-tier Alphas can enter the Ministry. all their conduct represents the image of the Ministry. Moreover, the demands on themselves are relatively high. Working in such a high-intensity environment, it became like this over time.”
“Oh, oh.” Ye Zhile understood. He looked at the food on the tray and slurped. “Looks so delicious.”
“Young Master Ye can taste it. I heard them say that the cafeterias of the Military and Political Ministries can’t compare to the Supreme Leader’s Ministry,” Wei Xichu said.
“Then I must taste it well.” Ye Zhile was drooling. The meal at the Ministry had a mix of meat and vegetables. Wei Xichu had gotten him two meat dishes, two vegetable dishes, and a soup. He picked up a piece of pot-stickers meat and put it in his mouth, chewing, his eyes lighting up. “So tasty.”
Wei Xichu smiled. “Young Master Ye, eat more.”
“You don’t need to call me Young Master Ye.” Ye Zhile swallowed the food in his mouth. “Just call me Lele.”
“Okay.”
Ye Zhile ate with dancing hands and feet. This lobster meat is so tender! This sweet and sour chicken is sweet and sour and so delicious! This soup is too rich and tasty~
Ye Zhile ate until he was stuffed. Finally, Wei Xichu sent him back to the Supreme Leader’s office.
Ji Shuohan’s office looked as cold as he did, consistent with the overall style of the Ministry. Pushing the door open revealed a heavy mechanical sense. A set of sofas and a mechanical desk with a smart display screen on it, and a whole row of bookshelves behind.
Ye Zhile walked to the sofa and sat down. He looked around Ji Shuohan’s office and suddenly felt that there were surveillance cameras all around. He stood up and walked under a camera. His hand touched something unknown, and suddenly several red lights scanned rapidly in the office, accompanied by a piercing alarm sound.
Ye Zhile was startled and ran towards the door hurriedly. Pulling open the door, there was a wall of flesh in front, and Ye Zhile ran straight into it.
“What happened?” Ji Shuohan steadied the person. Ye Zhile said nervously, “I-I don’t know what I touched, suddenly the alarm went off.”
“It’s okay.” Ji Shuohan walked over to turn off the alarm. “As long as the surveillance detects the presence of a stranger, it will red-line scan and sound the alarm. This is to prevent someone from stealing things in the office.”
“Oh… okay.” Seeing it was fine, Ye Zhile relaxed and sat on the sofa. “Is My Lord done with the meeting?”
“Mn.” Ji Shuohan asked him, “Returning to school today or tomorrow morning?”
“Tomorrow morning,” Ye Zhile said.
Ji Shuohan worked until very late as usual. Ye Zhile couldn’t stay up like him and fell asleep on the sofa at eleven o’clock.
When he woke up, he was already on the big bed at home.
Ye Zhile returned to school the next morning. Just after packing his things, Leng Xingtu put his arm around his shoulder, seemingly having something to say to him.
“What’s up?” He was pulled to the balcony by Leng Xingtu. Leng Xingtu asked him, “Was the method I taught you useful?”
Ye Zhile blinked, his face suddenly turning red, and said slowly, “Don’t know if it was useful, but it was enough to make me die of social embarrassment.”
On Saturday, Leng Xingtu said that the romance between little couples requires understanding seduction! Yes! He wanted Ye Zhile to wear sexy pajamas to hook up with the Supreme Leader! Just thinking about it was a huge social death scene! Ye Zhile wouldn’t do that even if he thought about it!
“…” Leng Xingtu didn’t understand. “What social embarrassment? Isn’t this quite normal between little couples?”
“Maybe it’s normal between couples, but… we haven’t even held hands.” Ye Zhile forced a smile.
“Haven’t even held hands? Playing Platonic?” Leng Xingtu looked disgusted. “You two should stick to kindergarten love; wasting my time!”
Ye Zhile sighed.
For the 8 a.m. class the next day, Ye Zhile and Leng Xingtu left the dormitory building. The weather began to cool down after the military training. As soon as the two came out, they shivered from the cold.
“Ye Zhile.”
Ye Zhile looked over and saw Lin Xinyi standing at the door of the Omega dormitory. “Senior?”
Lin Xinyi walked over, carrying a bag of breakfast and handing it to him. “You got up so early, you probably haven’t eaten. This is the breakfast I bought for you, eat it.”
Ye Zhile shook his head repeatedly. “No need, no need, Senior, you eat it yourself. I’ll eat at the cafeteria with my friend later.”
“It’s okay, take it, I already bought it.” Lin Xinyi insisted on giving it to him.
Ye Zhile retreated a few steps, embarrassed. “Senior, I really don’t need it, and… we aren’t familiar enough for you to buy me breakfast. But thank you for the thought.”
Saying that, Ye Zhile bowed deeply and ran away pulling Leng Xingtu.
Lin Xinyi was left in the wind in a mess. His face showed a burst of loneliness and regret. Was he too anxious? Having only met once, chatted a few sentences on the cloud, and it was all him looking for the other person to chat unilaterally.
No, no, can’t rush, can’t rush.
“He doesn’t lack your breakfast.” At this moment, Cheng Tingyan came out. Looking at Lin Xinyi, his tone inevitably carried sarcasm. “There are plenty of people bringing him food.”
However, Lin Xinyi didn’t understand Cheng Tingyan’s other meaning. He agreed, “An Omega like Junior Ye, surely many people fight to send him things.”
After speaking, Lin Xinyi turned and left.
“…” Cheng Tingyan was so angry his chest hurt, and cursed loudly, “Psycho!”
