Counterattack [Interstellar] - Chapter 65
It was midnight when Alan returned to Alice.
Allen handed the coat to the nanny in the apartment and asked softly, “Is the major general asleep?”
“No.” The nanny lowered his voice unconsciously, and replied in a low voice, “The major general said that he would like to read a book for a while. He has been in the study room. The major general asked me to prepare a supper for you. Do you need it now?”
Allen shook his head, he asked the nanny to rest, and went upstairs lightly.
The light in the study came out through the crack of the door, and a halo was reflected on the carpet. Allen slowly opened the door. As expected, Pei Yao had already fallen asleep leaning on the chair. The fireplace in the study is burning, so there is no need to worry about Pei Yao catching a cold. Allen leaned in front of the bookcase, staring at Pei Yao’s quiet sleeping face.
I don’t know how long it took, Pei Yao woke up with a frown. He looked at Alan, and after a few seconds of confusion, he woke up and hurriedly got up and said, “Your Highness.”
“Didn’t you not let you wait for me?” Allen took Pei Yao to sit down again, and whispered, “I fell asleep here.”
Pei Yao shook his head: “I just want to read a book for a while…how are you? Are you tired?”
“No.” Allen shook his head and smiled, “I was even a little excited at the beginning, but it was fine after that, and it went well.”
Pei Yao said earnestly: “Does this help you? How do you feel?”
“This feeling…it’s like you have a gun, but you always thought it was just a piece of iron. During the battle, you held it against the enemy. One day you suddenly discovered that it can still shoot and can help you more. Convenient to kill.” Allen chuckled, “Do you understand this feeling?”
Pei Yao smiled and asked, “Then, when used…is it more proficient when paralyzing the opponent’s Quantum Beast?”
Allen blinked: “Skillful…how do you say, I can kill people with this piece of iron now, but I still miss the target out of control when shooting. Can you understand this description?”
Pei Yao was amused by Allen’s metaphor, and said: “Understand, your metaphor is very vivid.”
“I have satisfied your curiosity, can you go to bed?” Allen looked at the vintage clock on the wall and warned Pei Yao, “This is the last time, next time I will find you staying up all night waiting for me , I will cancel your work the next day and force you to stay in the apartment to rest.”
Pei Yao’s mouth turned up unconsciously, and he looked down and said, “Yes, Your Highness.”
“That’s right.” Pei Yao said again after returning to the two people’s bedroom. “Those criminals… with Admiral Barker’s help to deal with them, there shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
Allen was startled, then nodded for a moment: “Don’t worry, they are not suspicious.”
Pei Yao was completely relieved, and whispered while facing the bed: “Also… what is the approximate time of the interview you told me before? The school is too busy these days, I need to piece together time.”
“Interview…” A gloom flashed in Allen’s eyes, and he shook his head. “Cancel. You were not good at dealing with reporters. You have been working a lot recently, so you don’t have to worry about it.”
Pei Yao frowned: “It’s not so good, you have already agreed, and don’t you say that this is what your majesty meant? If it’s because of me, then don’t worry, I’m almost used to it.”
Allen took a deep breath, hesitated and nodded: “Well, I will contact them tomorrow to set a time.”
“What’s wrong with you today?” Pei Yao looked at Alan worriedly, “Are you too tired? How many prisoners did you interrogate tonight?”
“There are only two.” Allen adjusted his emotions and said with a smile, “Well, I admit that I am a little tired. Controlling the quantum beast that is too climbing to attack each other is not as simple as I thought, especially when injecting venom. At the time, I have high requirements for mental power. I have to concentrate. During this period, I have to pay attention to the criminal’s movements and emotional changes, which will be a little difficult.”
Pei Yao felt distressed. He wanted to persuade Alan to give up, but as a supernatural person, he knew it was very irrational. Pei Yao had to say: “Next time, please interrogate only one prisoner. Yours is still too young. , Can’t stand such high-intensity training.”
“I’m too young?” Allen smiled, “Okay, I’m just a bit confused by excessive mental power. I’ll be fine tomorrow, go to sleep.” Allen said that Bi turned off the bedroom lights, and the big bedroom was instantly covered by the fireplace. The flames inside are glowing red.
In the darkness, Pei Yao suddenly remembered the night that the two were in the old exercise site. That time Allen was too exhausted and mentally unstable. At that time… he kissed Allen, which was very effective in soothing Allen’s pain. .
Pei Yao’s ears were red unconsciously, and he struggled in his heart, and leaned over and kissed Alan on the face.
“Major General, are you begging me to please?” Allen said with a small smile, “I really don’t want to sleep tonight?”
The darkness covered Pei Yao’s flushing cheeks very well. He pursed his lower lip and said in a low voice, “I want you to be more comfortable.”
Alan gritted his teeth, suddenly rolled over and pressed against Pei Yao, and whispered: “Don’t cry for a while…”
Pei Yao groaned forbearingly and pleased Ellen with his gesture of doing whatever he wanted. The two tossed for almost an hour. In the end Pei Yao had no strength. Ellen scrubbed the two of them and turned off the alarm clock, holding Pei. Yao fell asleep.
The next day, Pei Yao only woke up after daybreak. Allen didn’t get up ahead of him this time. Pei Yao looked at the alarm clock beside the bed in confusion, then looked out the window. He also wanted to look at his communication device again, but Alan put a hand on his body, Pei Yao was afraid of waking Alan and didn’t dare to move. After a while, Alan woke up and said with a smile: “Wake up?”
“The alarm clock didn’t go off.” Pei Yao said anxiously, “Now the students have finished a class.”
“Isn’t there? It’s probably broken…” Allen turned over and put his arms around Pei Yao, closing his eyes and said, “Are you hungry? Go to sleep if you are not hungry.”
Pei Yao shook his head: “You can rest for a while, I’ll go to school.”
“No, I’ll ask you for leave.” Allen raised his head and kissed Pei Yao on the forehead. “Today is off.”
Pei Yao opened his eyes wide: “When did you invite it? With…who did you invite?”
“Follow me.” Allen closed his eyes and smiled. “Let’s ask each other.”
Pei Yao couldn’t laugh or cry, wanted to get up to take care of work, but didn’t want to disturb Allen’s whim, and compromised after a long while: “Okay… rest until the afternoon.”
“Tsk…really strict.” Allen got up and asked the downstairs to prepare breakfast, “eat first, and discuss with you afterwards.”
Pei Yao was confused, and said: “Okay.”
After breakfast, Alan wanted to take Pei Yao out for a walk, but the weather in Alice was getting colder and colder, and the day after breakfast became gloomy. Alan simply took Pei Yao back to the bedroom, and the two surrounded them. Sitting on the small sofa with a blanket.
“Pei Yao.” Allen said simply, “After the blind date season is over… Let’s get married.”
Allen looked straight into Pei Yao’s eyes and added: “You should understand what I mean. The marriage I am talking about is not only in the legal sense. The most important thing is that we will establish the final mark.”
Pei Yao slowly widened his eyes, and it took a long time to react. He squatted and said, “Didn’t you say, say…just going for a honeymoon? Your Majesty said last time that you won’t get married so early…”
“Don’t worry about him.” Alan looked down at his hand and slowly said, “Indeed, I only decided last night, Pei Yao, I was afraid of too much before, I was worried that my secret would suddenly be leaked, I was worried Someone will interfere with us. I am worried that if there is an emergency that requires us to be separated, you will not be able to bear it, but from another angle… we have not established a final mark, and we will not be separated because of an emergency.”
Allen looked up at Pei Yao and smiled: “Unless I die, otherwise I will never give up on you.”
“So the previous considerations are actually just for me to worry about.” Allen looked around, embarrassed, “It’s a bit hasty, I didn’t prepare a ring or any decent gift, you…”
“I’m willing.” Pei Yao interrupted Alan. He didn’t dare to look at Alan. He turned his head and repeated it quietly and firmly, “I would…”
Alan’s throat choked, he took a deep breath and wrapped Pei Yao in his arms.
The big stone in Alan’s heart finally put down, no one knows how shocked he was when he heard the second star thief tell the secret of the Pearl that year.
The star thief said that their target had never been Ellen, but Pei Yao.
