Chapter 31
“… General Sir?”
Not Wen Su, but Song Pei, the Tulip Admiral.
“Hello there, little student He Yuan.” Song Pei greeted him with a smile. “Whether I should say it or not, you are the first person who made me wait so long.”
He Yuan instantly felt awkward.
Today was an accident; he was usually very diligent!
Looking at Song Pei with a bit of dissatisfaction, he whispered a rebuttal: “I-I didn’t know you were waiting for me either.”
Song Pei laughed loudly: “Alright then, I don’t blame you. Finally waited for you, find a place to chat?”
He Yuan thought what do you mean ‘don’t blame you,’ it wasn’t his fault in the first place. And the Tulip Admiral, whom he had only met once, suddenly appeared to chat with him—chat about what?
Song Pei saw his hesitation and said: “Chat about things related to Wen Su. You will definitely regret it if you don’t go.”
He Yuan was startled, then got a little nervous: Does the Tulip Admiral know something?
Song Pei said no more, raised his hand in a “please” gesture, and walked into the hotel first.
Although He Yuan’s head was still messy, his feet followed consciously.
Going upstairs into a guest room, a very luxurious suite, very fitting for the Tulip Admiral’s appearance, temperament, and style of doing things.
He Yuan sat cautiously on the sofa hugging his backpack. Song Pei was quite casual, taking off his coat like entering his own home, throwing it on the back of the sofa, loosening his tie, and sitting opposite He Yuan.
“What do you want to drink?”
He Yuan shook his head.
Song Pei laughed: “Don’t be nervous. You make me look like a bad guy like this. Let’s have some water first.”
He Yuan obediently tried to relax, putting down the backpack he was holding and placing it next to his leg.
Song Pei, who was pouring water, laughed again, pushed the glass over, and said: “You are indeed very cute. There must be many Alphas who like you.”
Knowing this was teasing, He Yuan didn’t answer. He thought no way, no one had pursued him growing up. It was understandable because he lacked the most important thing as an Omega, and those who weren’t obsessed with that thing had a huge base of Betas to consider…
Oh no, wait. It seemed someone had pursued him.
General Wen Su’s message in the middle of the night yesterday…
Why send a message in the middle of the night for no reason?
Insomnia too?
Why insomnia?
Relapse of old illness?
Or other reasons?
The Tulip Admiral said he wanted to chat about General Wen Su, but he was still beating around the bush until now.
He Yuan couldn’t wait.
“General Wen Su he…”
“Wen Su he…”
Simultaneous again.
He Yuan shut his mouth quickly.
Song Pei looked at him, his relaxed expression gradually converging.
“The military meeting this time can be described as continuous rotation. During the period, only seven hours of rest time were given. If it were the Wen Su of the past, no need to think, he would definitely return to his room immediately and wouldn’t come out no matter who called. But this time, he first hesitated in the corridor, and then was led away by me with a little hoodwinking.”
He Yuan: ?
“I made an appointment with a fashion designer. Wen Su followed to look at the lookbook, looking very seriously. He wanted to customize clothes for you. So I guess, when he stood motionless in the corridor at first, he was also hesitating whether to go back to see you during those seven hours.”
He Yuan: !
“Wen Su this time radiated the happy aura peculiar to ‘being in love’ all over his body. But ever since he met my life assistant, his whole person became very wrong, twisted and anxious, and even left the meeting room without authorization just to make an incoherent phone call to you.”
He Yuan: …
Song Pei stared at He Yuan and couldn’t help sighing desolately.
“Little student He Yuan, Wen Su likes you very much.”
“I didn’t expect that you really are his life assistant.”
“During the Mecha Competition, we all thought Wen Su saying you were an assistant was just an excuse.”
“After all, you are an Omega.”
“And such a cute Omega.”
Song Pei lowered his eyes, his expression unusually solemn and sad: “Wen Su himself must have never expected that you really are just a life assistant.”
He Yuan: ……
Very strange.
Every sentence was very strange.
“General Sir, you mean…”
“You are the same as the life assistants of all generals, sent by the Logistics Management Department to participate in that boring research project. But Wen Su didn’t know. He thought you were a matching partner sent by the higher-ups to help him pass the courtship period smoothly. To make it sound nice, they called it an assistant, and also to not be too blatant, gave you time to get along in advance.”
“As a result, Wen Su did mark you, and really fell in love with you. Probably he also thought that since you were willing to accept the military’s arrangement, you also liked him. Unexpectedly, just the day before yesterday, he accidentally discovered the truth. I think, compared to the point that you are just an assistant, he cares more about what kind of feelings you actually hold for him. So he was perturbed, hesitating to speak.”
“Powerful as Wen Su, now he is just a guy awakening to love and worrying about gains and losses.”
He Yuan: …………
Still very strange.
Every sentence was very strange.
But this time the strangeness connected together and made so much sense! All the inexplicable places were explained clearly!
So for the past few months, he and General Wen Su had been talking past each other?
It was incredible.
He pinched his fist and confirmed: “Did General Wen Su tell you these things?”
Song Pei shook his head: “I guessed based on his words and deeds. But thinking about trying big data marriage among generals and wanting to find an Omega to help Wen Su pass the courtship period is a fact. I heard it from above long ago, just that they hadn’t acted yet.”
“Guess? T-then that means it’s very likely incorrect?” He Yuan tried hard to make up for it.
Song Pei sneered: “Little student He Yuan, you probably don’t understand what kind of people the core generals of the Star Source Alliance are, nor do you understand me very well.”
He Yuan looked at him sheepishly.
Thinking it’s not that I don’t understand very well, I don’t understand at all!
Song Pei said: “Simply put, core generals not only possess superb military talents but also have their own unique skills. Since I can tell you this, I definitely won’t be wrong. If you still don’t believe it, Wen Su has returned to the base now. Why don’t we call him together to ask?”
He Yuan shook violently and waved his hands desperately to resist.
Then he subconsciously asked a slightly irrelevant question: “Then what is General Wen Su’s unique skill?”
Song Pei’s expression paused, obviously not expecting him to ask this. He looked up and thought for a moment, then said pretentiously: “Love brain, I guess.” (Translator’s Note: “Love brain” refers to someone who is lovesick or prioritizes romance above all else).
He Yuan: …
Not funny at all.
“But you look completely not love-brained, little student He Yuan.” Song Pei said playfully, “So calm, what is your reaction and decision?”
He Yuan thought I’m not calm, I’m obtuse.
Never experienced this kind of thing. Recently he was made messy and confused, and often sad for no reason.
Scratching his leg with his finger, he asked: “General Sir, you took the initiative to find me and said so much. What reaction and decision do you hope I make?”
Song Pei frowned.
Was he checkmated?
No, the Omega was gentle and sincere. He really didn’t know and really wanted to hear suggestions before asking.
Song Pei considered it and said: “Then let me ask you a different question, a most, most important question. Do you love Wen Su?”
He Yuan froze.
Then started to panic: “I, I don’t know, I haven’t thought about it. I always thought General Wen Su marked me because he lost control during the courtship period, and later it was out of responsibility that…”
“Don’t say these useless things.” Song Pei interrupted him. “You don’t know and haven’t thought about it, then think now. Think clearly.”
He Yuan was even more stunned, and even more panicked.
Song Pei then slightly restrained the pressure of the top-tier Alpha which was rarely revealed, sighed and said: “Such a big misunderstanding, such serious consequences. If you don’t think clearly, do you plan to continue dragging it out and muddying the waters?”
He Yuan lowered his head and pursed his lips, thinking Song Pei was right.
“Don’t attach any other conditions. Just consider your heart. Is there that kind of affection, liking, love between AO?”
He Yuan was silent.
Pondered.
Sorted out.
Until finally, hands clenched tightly on his legs, he slowly but firmly shook his head.
Song Pei let out a very helpless “Ah,” leaned back on the sofa, pressed the back of his hand against his forehead, looking very broken.
He Yuan asked nervously: “General Sir, did I cause trouble?”
Song Pei continued to sigh very helplessly: “You can’t cause trouble alone. Objectively speaking, it should be Wen Su’s problem that is bigger. An Alpha like him going crazy in the courtship period, let alone you, I might not even be able to stop him. It was hard on you too. Suffered a lot, right?”
He Yuan moved his mouth hesitantly: “Ac-actually no…”
“Ha?” Song Pei was startled. “You mean you actually enjoyed it?!”
“No! Nor that!” He Yuan waved his hands hurriedly, his face red all the way to his neck. He turned his head away and murmured, “Just except for being tired, no… special obvious feeling.”
Song Pei: …
Song Pei: …………
Song Pei: ………………
Rose Admiral Wen Su, interstellar top general, super invincible mega Alpha.
… No feeling.
This evaluation was more fatal than a misunderstanding or not loving.
Especially since this evaluation was actually spoken by this seemingly weak little guy.
If Wen Su heard it with his own ears, presumably there was no second choice besides committing suicide in shame and indignation.
“Don’t you dare say this to Wen Su, hear me?” He warned.
He Yuan immediately nodded like pounding garlic.
Song Pei squinted and scrutinized, tsk-tsking twice: “It seems you not only don’t love, but have absolutely no feelings for Wen Su, good or bad. Completely, no feeling at all… So scary. But having said that, since he marked you, didn’t he use pheromones to control you?”
Wen Su was too upright. Occasionally controlling during special moments was romantic. Really didn’t understand.
Unexpectedly, He Yuan said: “Because I, I suffer from Congenital Gland Closure Syndrome. Although General Wen Su performed the marking behavior, it actually had no effect.”
He said what should be said and what shouldn’t be said. He might as well tell everything.
And don’t know why, although it was only the second time meeting Song Pei, he seemed to have a kind of magic power that made people easily let down their guard and chat a lot involuntarily like old friends.
He Yuan talked about his physical condition. Song Pei suddenly realized: “So that’s it. No wonder you can be a life assistant even though you are an Omega.”
Speaking of this, He Yuan remembered: “By the way, General Sir, how did you know we were doing research? Isn’t the project confidential to the research subjects?”
“Because Wen Su and I are completely different. Except for his own business, he doesn’t care about anything outside. I love to inquire. Let alone the military’s affairs I know like the back of my hand, other departments are also a piece of cake for me.” Song Pei paused, sneering, “What ghost research, boring. I am very unhappy being used as an experimental subject. Let it be for now. Can’t rule out unbearable intolerance in the future. Don’t blame me then.”
He Yuan: …
Although he could understand this mood, generally speaking, the research project was ultimately good for the generals and the country.
Just as he was about to refute, Song Pei raised his index finger and shook it: “Today is not to talk about those. Little student He Yuan, aren’t you surprised why I came to find you at this time?”
“For General Wen Su? You guys look like you have a good relationship. You don’t want him to be kept in the dark.”
“More than that.” Song Pei’s expression became serious. “Yesterday you guys had a meeting here, and you won the Best Assistant, right? There are already rumors saying that you relied on your body to make Wen Su’s happiness index rise sharply.”
“What?!” He Yuan stood up excitedly. “How, how can there be such rumors?! This is too much!!!”
“Calm down.” Song Pei signaled He Yuan to sit down. “Because everyone doesn’t know you have an illness, and you are the only Omega assistant. Besides, during the Mecha Competition, Wen Su practically publicly acquiesced to your relationship, only you didn’t realize it. I’ll say something unpleasant again. You certainly never thought of doing that, but Wen Su liking you and marking you is a fact. Doing the test under such circumstances, where do you think his sharply rising happiness came from?”
He Yuan was silent.
What Admiral Song Pei said…
Made sense.
So this “Best” of his, in the eyes of other assistants…
They would naturally be unconvinced.
But, but…
“Go back,” Song Pei said. “I know you’ve thought it through. For yourself, and for Wen Su, solve this matter properly. You are a very brave Omega. I believe you can definitely do it.”
