Chapter 2: Getting Married Today?
The military school Shen Zhuo mentioned was the Ares Military Academy, the number one academy in the Empire.
Upon graduation, one would be dispatched to the battlefield, where the training and the mechas were of the highest quality.
Most importantly, his two fathers were both outstanding alumni of the academy.
Shen Zhuo’s father, Jiang Yuening, was once an exceptional healer.
He had obtained the complementary ability of healing during the ability differentiation process, which had only a 0.1% success rate.
Thus, he was undefeatable alongside Father Shen on the battlefield against the Insect Race.
Shen Zhuo was the fruit of their love, possessing extraordinary talents from a young age.
He had completed the ability differentiation at just 10 years old, gaining the ability [Hear the Heart], which allowed him to hear the thoughts of others, making him very suitable to become a judicial officer.
Unfortunately, Father Shen, in order to protect the underage Shen Zhuo, had not made this fact public.
And after marrying Feng Ming, Shen Zhuo, wanting to respect the other’s privacy, had never used his ability.
No one knew of Shen Zhuo’s genius.
Everyone thought he was merely a good-for-nothing with a fine appearance.
“But how should we handle the emperor’s order?”
Jiang Yuening knitted his slender brows:
“The royal family is already very wary of the military department. In fact, Xiao Zhuo’s marriage to the Second Prince is what they hope for.”
Shen Zhuo thought for a moment.
“Then I’ll just get married earlier.”
[Viewership has increased, some audiences find it interesting]
Father Shen: “…”
Even General Shen, who was not easily amused, was chuckled by this brazen remark.
“You’ve liked the Second Prince for so long, and now you say you want to marry someone else. Who would marry you?”
Just then, the door was suddenly knocked, and the panicked voice of Xia Dou came from outside:
“Please wait in the conference room, the master will be here soon.”
But before the words faded, the door was pushed open, and a tall figure stood backlit in the doorway, his cold and deep voice ringing out:
“Teacher, the important meeting, there’s no time.”
The man’s features were sharp and fierce, and the perpetual icy expression on his face seemed to emanate an almost sinister coldness, making one dare not look directly at him.
Even without releasing his pheromones, Shen Zhuo could feel the substantial pressure from this man.
Dangerous.
The brain sent out a warning signal, and Shen Zhuo narrowed his eyes, recognizing this person.
The Supreme Commander of the Military Department, Du Xun.
In the absence of the royal family’s control over the military, with political power also divided, Du Xun, who held all the authority of the military department, was the true ruler.
In his previous life, Shen Zhuo was actually not interested in the military, and had never had any contact with this man.
The reason he recognized him was that he had attended Shen Zhuo’s wedding to Feng Ming.
At that time, Du Xun sat in the front row of the VIP seats, his icy expression standing out among the joyful guests.
And this Supreme Commander had been staring at him from the moment he appeared, until the end of the wedding.
The previous Shen Zhuo had been terrified, thinking that he and Feng Ming were not getting along, and that Du Xun was going to retaliate.
But nothing happened.
After that, they had never seen each other again.
As he was deep in thought, Shen Zhuo’s brain heated up.
The man before him had an impeccable appearance, and had become a Supreme Commander at such a young age.
As a top-tier Alpha, not to mention his power and status.
—If it was him, perhaps it could work.
“Uh…”
The young man’s voice was cool and melodious, easy to recognize. Du Xun followed the sound and looked over, immediately losing his dark, gloomy expression.
“What is it?”
Shen Zhuo clenched his fists, determined to take the plunge:
“Supreme Commander Du, shall we get married? Today.”
Father Shen: “????”
Jiang Yuening: “!!”
Du Xun: “…”
