Counterattack [Interstellar] - Chapter 38
“The previous thinking should be correct…” Allen frowned slightly, and said slowly, “This can’t be the effect of external drugs or the like. It must be an evolution of itself… What is it? What about? Is the training intensity not strong enough?”
Pei Yao was sorting out the students’ recent course materials, and he didn’t even think about it. “No, it’s enough.”
Allen turned his head to look at Pei Yao and smiled: “Are you feeling sorry for me?”
Pei Yao paused, as if he hadn’t heard, bowed his head and continued to organize the information.
“Or is the situation in the exercise field wrong?” Allen said lazily, propping his chin. “Sentinels’ special abilities are mostly inspired on the battlefield. Does it have anything to do with their own emotions? Must you be absolutely nervous?”
Pei Yao couldn’t bear it the more he listened, and raised his head and frowned: “His Royal Highness, please have the consciousness of being the second heir to the throne. You belong to the empire. Everyone needs you. Please don’t joke about your safety.”
“Don’t worry, I’m very afraid of death.” Allen summoned his Taipan snake to appease Pei Yao, and then said again, “What else could it be because of the brain capacity of the insect beast? Too small? Isn’t the mental power really exercised?”
Taipan Snake put his head on Pei Yao’s legs and flicked his tail. It was very pleasant. Pei Yao stretched out a hand to caress the fine scales on his neck and nodded after thinking about it. “It’s possible.”
“You said…” Allen turned to look at Pei Yao and said seriously, “If I intercept Anthony’s starship and imprison him secretly, will it be more effective if I practice his hands every day to exercise his mental strength?”
In terms of brain capacity, Anthony is a primate anyway, much better than insects. In terms of the intensity of combat, Anthony is a sentry no matter how bad he is. He has not received less training in his early years, and he still has some combat ability. Perceptually speaking… I hate Anthony and I hate it. I will do my best in order to torture him more.
Pei Yao looked at Alan’s calm eyes and couldn’t calm his heart for a long time. His Highness… is planning to hijack the Imperial Crown Prince?
Seeing Pei Yao not speaking in a daze, Allen’s Tai Snake arched him in dissatisfaction. Pei Yao organized the language and said in a low voice, “Please don’t make such a joke.”
Allen smiled at Pei Yao: “Major General, I’m serious.”
Pei Yao tried his best not to lose his appearance in front of Alan, and reluctantly said: “His Royal Highness…”
“Okay, I know what you’re going to say.” Alan leaned on the sofa and said, “I’m starting to regret that Orston sent Anthony away…who did he leave for me to play with?”
Pei Yao couldn’t laugh or cry, lowered his head and continued to work. Allen then considered his plan. After a while, Allen’s ceremonial officer knocked on the door and came in and said, “His Royal Highness, Jenny is down.”
Allen smiled: “Aunty? Why didn’t you tell me before?”
“I told you that they must have been preparing since last night. It’s too much trouble.” Mrs. Jenny walked in with a smile, “I just stopped by to see you, the major general is also there.”
Allen’s Taipan Snake disappeared by Pei Yao’s legs before Mrs. Jenny went upstairs. Pei Yao was still uneasy. He calmly recruited his dragon to cover up Liyintai in the five-dimensional space. The tiny energy wave changes caused by the disappearance of the climbing snake.
Pei Yao stepped forward and kissed Mrs. Jenny’s hand and said, “Hello, ma’am.”
“I envy you. I have not been able to help Prince Adair. I have never been able to work together.” Madam Jeanne shook her head and sighed, “How nice it is to get along day and night.”
Allen blinked at Mrs. Jenny: “It’s not as good as you think…Major General is not very compatible with my office romance.”
Whether it was a nephew or a nephew, Mrs. Jenny instantly understood what Ellen meant, and smiled charmingly: “I understand, don’t worry, Adair used to be a piece of wood, but it’s much better now. This is something that needs to be adjusted. Don’t worry, Major General. Sooner or later, I will understand your taste and work hard to cooperate with you.”
Pei Yao was still worried about Ellen’s climbing snakes. He only understood what the two people were talking about after hearing about it. Allen blushed instantly, and Ellen smiled helplessly at Mrs. Jenny: “Look, this is shy. NS.”
“It’s okay to be shy, alas, you don’t know… the kind of time when you secretly kiss him and he will blush all day is the best time, so cherish it.” She was also a sentinel, but when she realized that Pei Yao became more embarrassed, she ended the topic in a timely manner, and smiled mischievously, “Okay, let’s go on, the major general’s face is probably burning up, let’s talk about business…”
Mrs. Jenny sat down, tidyed up her dress and said, “Mrs. Bettina has been a bit active recently. You should have heard about one or two, right?”
Pei Yao looked at the time and said: “His Royal Highness, I still have something to discuss with the security captain, I will first…”
“Sit down.” Allen took Pei Yao’s hand and pulled the person to his side, gently reprimanding, “Don’t be ignorant, my aunt has finally come here, and you have to push back if you have something.”
This tone of reprimanding the children made Pei Yao extremely embarrassed, and Mrs. Jenny smiled sympathetically: “Okay, Major General, don’t feel awkward. You are now our Royal Highness, what else can’t you listen to? It happens to you too. Can help Allen come up with ideas.”
Pei Yao respectfully nodded: “You are serious, I can’t put your head on your Highness’s business.”
“Your Royal Highness probably didn’t think so. Tsk tsk… Look at the way he looks at you.” Mrs. Jenny shook her head and sighed, “When your relationship is announced, how many Alan fans will be heartbroken.”
Pei Yao is not good at dealing with this kind of teasing. Allen couldn’t help but relieve him, saying: “Are you talking about Bettina’s frequent appearances at various charity evenings these days?”
Mrs. Jenny nodded: “Although she was also very enthusiastic about public welfare in the past, she has never been so high-profile. No matter what it is for, it is not a good phenomenon for that woman to appear frequently in public.”
Allen played with Pei Yao’s fingers lightly, and slowly said, “I remember that Auston used to forbid her to show up outside.”
“That was ten years ago. In the past two years, Aston hasn’t restrained him much. Recently… probably to appease Bettina, after all, Anthony was sent off.” Madam Jeanne frowned in disgust. “Two days ago We met at a party. I didn’t know she was there until I arrived. God knows what the organizer thinks. They never dared to show Bettina and the royal family in the same scene before. It must be… it must be Oss. Just acquiesce in, otherwise they dare not be so bold.”
Allen smiled with interest: “What? Is Alston wanting the public to recognize his mistress, and then marry her as a matter of course?”
“Impossible, and the House will not agree.” Mrs. Jenny sneered. “Marrying a mistress, Auston can’t do such undecent things.”
If raising a mistress is a secret hobby among the male aristocrats of the empire, then formal marriage with a mistress is a big joke. This will not only cause dissatisfaction among the people, but also make the nobles use it as a joke, the most important thing. However, Mrs. Jenny didn’t think that Alston liked Bettina so much and would bet on her little fame.
Mrs. Jennie repeated the previous discussion between her and Alston about having another prince with Allen, and said: “At the time, Alston simply said no, but in turn, he warned you that you would have to deal with the Maj. In the end, his inclination was already obvious, and he didn’t want Bettina to go one step further.”
Allen sneered: “Auston knows better than anyone, that another prince will only make this pool of sewage more muddy.”
“So the situation is not as bad as we thought, but I just don’t understand…” Mrs. Jenny looked at Allen and slowly said, “What on earth does Alston want to do? Is it to keep the subject of Anthony in the main star? He was afraid that the people would forget the crown prince, so he asked Bettina to come out for her son’s presence? Not so…”
Allen shook his head: “I guess it’s not Auston that is driving this situation. He only acquiesces in at best. He is still partial to Anthony, so he indulges Bettina’s small actions.”
Madam Jennie nodded and paused: “The following is the real purpose of my coming today.” Madam Jennie glanced at Pei Yao and said helplessly: “I heard a piece of news that made me very uneasy yesterday, Betty Na… talked about you with someone, Major General.”
Pei Yao frowned: “Me?”
“Yes.” Mrs. Jenny hesitated. “It’s strange… According to the people she heard, she didn’t mean anything when she talked about you, at least on the surface, she just asked about your current job. Said she regretted that you could no longer be by Anthony’s side, and then told others to take care of you if they had the opportunity. This…” Mrs. Jenny looked at Alan, shook her head and laughed: “I really don’t understand. What is this woman going to do?”
“I don’t know, but it’s definitely not a good thing.” Allen chuckled coldly. “She knows the relationship between Pei Yao and me. Is this demonstrating to me?”
Mrs. Jenny disagreed and said: “No, in this case, we generally understand that she is spreading words in the air and showing goodwill to Pei Yao.” Madam Jennie smiled at Pei Yao, “Major General, you are going to catch this from Bettina. Olive branch?”
Pei Yao glanced at Allen, stood up and nodded, “I only listen to your Highness.”
Mrs. Jenny smiled lovingly: “I admire your loyalty, Major General.” Allen reluctantly brought Peiyao to her side again, unconsciously a little bit of pampering in her tone: “Aunty is just talking to you. Chat, what are you doing so nervously, will I still not believe you?”
Allen turned to look at Mrs. Jenny and smiled: “Thank you for your reminder. I will be careful.”
Mrs. Jenny nodded, and couldn’t help but exhorted again: “Don’t underestimate this woman. Having been able to endure humiliation for so many years before can prove that she is not in the pool, and that her son is now in an embarrassing situation. No mother can bear the suffering of her child. She will do her best for Anthony.”
Allen smiled faintly: “Okay, let her try.”
