Counterattack [Interstellar] - Chapter 41
“You guys are a bit late.” Mrs. Jenny walked towards the two of them holding Prince Adair’s arm, smiling, “Major General, you are here too.”
Mrs. Jenny winked at Pei Yao, but she didn’t know that Pei Yao had already told Ellen about the two people’s secrets. Pei Yao smiled helplessly and nodded.
“Allen.” Prince Adair stepped forward to hug Allen and smiled, “We finally meet.”
Allen hurriedly apologized: “I was wrong for not being able to attend your birthday party last time. There was a little accident, I…”, Adair naturally knew about the accident, and Adair didn’t know it. He smiled, turned his head to look at Pei Yao, and said with a smile: “I often hear Jenny talk about you, and I have heard a lot of your achievements before. I am very happy to officially meet you here today.”
Adair has a calm personality, elegant and unassuming conversation, and is very easy to get along with. He and Pei Yao both grew up in the army and can talk about a lot of topics. Taking advantage of the happy conversation between the two, Mrs. Jenny walked to Ellen and whispered. Said: “Bettina has arrived.”
Allen sorted out the cufflinks and said lightly: “I was notified before… I heard that she has ordered more than a dozen dresses for today.”
“Sneez…” Mrs. Jenny couldn’t help laughing. “Yes, she hasn’t had the opportunity to wear a dress for so many years. Finally, Aston let her out and shake it. Of course, I have to have a good time. Come with me to meet Oss. Stop it, don’t worry, Bettina won’t come out yet.”
Allen handed her arm to Mrs. Jenny, and smiled disdainfully: “I have something to worry about, she should be afraid…”
The two slowly walked in. Allen smiled and said hello to the familiar stars. Mrs. Jennie smiled and comforted Allen: “Worry or not…Today is Alston’s birthday party, Betty Na didn’t dare to do anything extraordinary.”
Allen was noncommittal, letting go of Mrs. Jenny’s arm and hugged Auston. Auston also smiled and hugged his little son back, and kissed Ellen on both sides of the cheek a few times, allowing the cameraman to take pictures. After taking enough photos, Alan stepped back expressionlessly. Aston himself was disgusting enough. He hadn’t kissed Alan for many years. Alan was even more uncomfortable. He had taken an attendant. The white wine that came up was drunk, finally suppressing the uncomfortable energy.
“Be careful not to get drunk.” Allen gave Allen a dissatisfied look. “There will be reporters doing a few routine interviews in a while, so stay awake at all times.”
Allen put the empty champagne glass into the tray, took out his handkerchief and pressed the corner of his mouth, saying, “My drink is better than you think.”
“Okay.” Mrs. Jenny said in a timely manner before Alston became angry. “Can’t you father and son have a good conversation one day, Ellen… I’m going to criticize you. Today is your majesty’s birthday, goodbye. One point, okay?”
Allen still hates the recent incident of Aston indulging Bettina to appear in the public. Where did he get so angry, he just gave a faint hmm when he heard that, Allen didn’t expect Alan to be with his father a long time ago. Cizi was filial, and she just snorted and said nothing when she saw it. Mrs. Jenny relaxed and enlivened the atmosphere and smiled: “Your Majesty, I heard that Admiral Barker will also come today?”
“Yes, Barker has just returned from Tara Star. It may be a little later.” Alston turned to look at Allen. “Balke had some conflicts with the natives there in Tara, do you know?”
This is the news that Alston received less than half an hour ago. Allen naturally didn’t know it. It also attracted the attention of Mrs. Jenny. She raised her eyebrows and said: “What’s the matter? Is it serious…”
It was rare for Alston to patiently talk to the two about political affairs, and at the other end of the palace square, Pei Yao met an uninvited guest.
“Major General, can I have a chat with you?” Bettina wore a champagne-colored evening dress tonight. She pulled her hair up high and fixed it with only a few pearl hairpins. The two strands of curly hair naturally fell. Coming down, seemingly casual, but exquisite everywhere, Bettina smiled gently, “Don’t be so wary, I just want to chat with my son’s former subordinates for a while, you know, my son was exiled. …”
Bettina lowered her eyes and said in a low voice: “I like to chat with his former maid, housekeeper, and subordinates. Listening to them talk about Anthony will make me feel better.”
Bettina smiled reluctantly: “I’m sorry to make you laugh, I… I hope you can understand the mood of a mother.”
Pei Yao looked at Bettina silently, and said for a while: “I’m sorry, I don’t understand.”
Bettina was stunned. She clearly heard… Pei Yao is a very good-hearted person. People who know him say that as long as he shows weakness, he will generally help you…
Pei Yao glanced around with his light. The few people chatting in twos and threes nearby seemed casual, but they were obviously doing a show. If he guessed correctly, Prince Adair should have been taken away just now. They are disciplined. Purposeful, Pei Yao’s thin lips slightly pursed, what is Bettina trying to do?
The little accident did not disrupt Bettina’s plan. She smiled bitterly and said: “I see, do you still hate that stupid boy Anthony? I think I should explain something about that year, Anthony is completely I was deceived by Admiral Matthew, in fact…”
“Madam.” Pei Yao interrupted Bettina and stated calmly, “His Royal Highness is older than me if I remember correctly, and I am already thirty-six years old this year.”
Just as the phrase “stupid kid” seemed to slap Bettina’s face, Bettina’s Persian Cat Quantum Beast screamed in shame, Bettina tried her best to appease her Quantum Beast, and she felt that right in her heart. People who said that Pei Yao was a pure and kind person scolded thousands of times. Bettina took out a handkerchief and pressed her eyes, trying to calm down, and said in embarrassment: “In the eyes of mother, children are mostly children… I understand you. If you have any grievances, please vent to me together.”
Bettina smiled bitterly and said: “I thought a lot after Anthony left… Probably because Anthony committed too many mistakes, so God had to punish us like this. I want to try my best to make up for it. Maybe I still can’t get your forgiveness, but at least I Be more at ease.”
Bettina’s tone was very sincere, and what she said was very tempting. It’s a pity that Pei Yao didn’t believe a word. Pei Yao didn’t want to be entangled with her, and slightly nodded: “I have something to do. I am out of company.”
“Major General.” Bettina stopped Pei Yao and said helplessly, “Do you have to be so indifferent? I just want to make atonement for my poor son, okay… I know you are very busy, I will tell you directly about mine. Sincerity, okay?”
Although the script was disrupted by Pei Yao, the opportunity to have a face-to-face conversation with Pei Yao was too rare. Bettina couldn’t give up and had to continue. She smiled and said, “I don’t know if you know, I have twins. My nephew and niece, they are already 18 years old this year, and they will be able to graduate from Baita soon. I would like to lead a red thread for you and one of them, okay?”
“If you are interested, I can even arrange for you to meet.” Bettina said softly, “Burch looks like me and Angie is more like her father. Although I don’t want to boast, I think they can satisfy you if they look like me. …Major General, you are a sentry, a very powerful sentry. You should be combined with a guide. This will make you stronger. A sentry like you should not be single. This is also a loss to the empire. ?”
Pei Yao was a little startled when he heard the words, Bettina thought she had succeeded, and her heart became more steadfast, and she said: “As long as you nod your head, you will be able to combine with a guide in a short time…You know how scarce a guide is now, you know better than me, participate in the blind date party. The threshold is increasing year by year. If you just apply according to the regulations, you don’t know how long you have to wait.”
“To be honest, I also agree with you and His Royal Highness Allen very much. I am not optimistic about blind dates, so I have always hoped that I can find a reliable sentry for Birch and Anqi by myself, and I hope I can treat you The compensation, this…” Bettina smiled relievedly, “Isn’t this the best of both worlds?”
Bettina sensitively caught the small changes in Pei Yao’s eyes, and slowly said, “If you are worried about your Highness Allen… Try to get you to the White Tower. You will meet the one you like unexpectedly. He may be in estrus. You were forced to respond to his pheromone and made a good story. This is also very reasonable, right? ?”
Pei Yao’s heart trembled, and finally understood Bettina’s intentions.
Pei Yao subconsciously scanned the surrounding circle. If he refuses today… Will the scene Bettina just said become a reality?
Although Pei Yao thinks he has strong control, he can’t guarantee that nothing will happen if he is in the same room with a estrus without a tranquilizer. The animality of the supernatural being is carved into the bone. At the beginning, on the Pearl, it was not marked that Allen was given a tranquilizer as if he was self-destructing, but he had to be designed by this woman without defense…
Pei Yao didn’t dare to think further. He only established a short-term relationship with Allen. He could hardly refuse Allen’s request. Pei Yao couldn’t imagine how great the power would be after the real mark.
Bettina wanted to take Alan’s secrets from herself with the help of a guide.
In an instant, Pei Yao’s thoughts became extremely clear, and the question that Alan had been struggling with for many days finally had an answer. Pei Yao ignored the dumb Bettina, turned and left quickly.
Allen talked endlessly, although it was all topics that Allen calmed down and liked to listen to, but somehow Allen was unconsciously irritable today, and before Allen finished talking, Allen turned around and went to Pei Yao very rudely. .
“His Royal Highness.”
After walking out of the hall a few steps, Alan saw Pei Yao. Alan instantly settled down and smiled and reprimanded: “Do you like talking to Prince Adair so much?”
“No…” Pei Yao was a little flustered, he tried to calm his mood, and after hesitating for a few seconds, he said firmly, “His Royal Highness, please… open our relationship.”
