Interstellar: Besieged

Chapter 14 Assassination

Early the next morning, the sound of knocking on the door woke up the two people who were sleeping in each other's arms on the bed.Chu Shuo's sleep was shallow, so he woke up immediately.Get out of bed, pick up the clothes scattered on the ground and put them on, fasten the belt, put on the military boots, flick and pull the collar of the military uniform with your fingers, the whole movement is smooth and smooth, there is no trace of wrinkle on the military uniform, as if it was not there at all last night It was like being roughly stripped off and thrown on the ground.

Turning around, Ning Yao was lying on his side and looking at him, with a white arm exposed outside the quilt, eyes half-opened and not fully awake.

"Ning Yao?" Chu Shuo bent down, caressing the side of Ning Yao's face with rough callused hands.

"...Huh?" Ning Yao was lazy, her waist was sore, she didn't even bother to move.At this time, when Chu Shuo touched her, her cheeks were a little itchy, so she couldn't help rubbing against his palm, feeling comfortable, closing her eyes and not even bothering to open them.

Chu Shuo brushed the long eyelashes at the corners of his eyes with his fingers, and leaned over to kiss him.Then, under the urging of knocking on the door, he suppressed the slight warmth in his eyes, put on his military cap, and returned to that stern major general Chu.

"what's up?"

Standing outside the door was Chu Shuo's adjutant, Suo Ming, who had been with Chu Shuo for so many years and knew Chu Shuo's temper well.Knowing who was with Chu Shuo, if it wasn't an urgent matter, he would never have knocked on the door so early, even knocking twice.

"Major General, emergency military report."

After Chu Shuo left with Adjutant Suo, the researchers who were watching from a distance walked over pretendingly.It's a pity that there is still a dedicated young non-commissioned officer guarding Ning Yao's gate, staring at them without blinking.

But there are still people who are not afraid of death and want to find out. The so-called life is precious, and science is more expensive. If it is because of gossip, both can be thrown away.Pity him, Qi Yantang, a first-class academician of the Charia Academy of Sciences, who is locked up here and isolated from the world, and doesn't even know such a little gossip.As long as major general Chu's gossip is thrown away, it can also make headlines.

"Little brother, I want to ask you something, you major general..." Qi Yan walked over to make friends, and slowly typed out the next speech, but before it was used, the boss came out.

Ning Yao was already fully dressed, holding on to the door frame, said hello to Qi Yan, then turned to the sergeant and said, "Please go and make me a breakfast."

The non-commissioned officer led the order to have breakfast, but he did not forget to turn his head and give Qi Yan a look.Qi Yan looked at Ning Yao without blinking, always felt that he seemed a little different from yesterday, and he couldn't tell why, but he looked like... Yes, there was a kind of lazy charm.If a man saw this appearance, his heart would inevitably fluctuate.

"For the sake of your eyes, you should stop staring at me, academician Qi." Ning Yao secretly slandered: Qi Yan has been with him for the past two days, but you keep staring at me, Chu Shuo guessed It hasn't gotten very far yet.

"Haha, I'm just tired of sitting and come out for a walk." Although Qi Yan loves gossip and beauties, it's only when his own life is safe.It was either Chu Shuo or Chu Shuo who made Ning Yao like this, he didn't dare to provoke him.

"If you are interested, you can come to my wedding in two days." Ning Yao smiled slightly, and then watched with satisfaction as Qi Yan's mouth slowly opened and took shape, and closed the door as soon as he turned around.

Not long after, the sergeant came back with breakfast.Seeing Qi Yan's head resting on the wall, with both hands on the wall, he looked overwhelmed: ah, Major General Chu is indeed the winner in life, the beauty belongs to him, and I have been abandoned by the times, this broken mech I don't study anymore, who will let me out...

The sergeant scratched his head, is this person out of his mind?

After Ning Yao ate breakfast, she went to wash her face with cold water, and finally she became much more energetic.Yesterday Chu Shuo dragged him until the early hours of the morning, but now it's only six o'clock in the morning.Ning Yao rubbed her waist, vaguely remembered that she said something she shouldn't have said yesterday, but she couldn't remember it after sleeping.

Eh?No... Who is the memory that pestered Chu Shuo to 'want'?

Ning Yao supported her forehead, and then supported the sink with both hands, the thoughts in her mind instantly turned into a mass of black lines that were constantly being cut and untangled.Fortunately, Ning Yao didn't see Chu Shuo again for the next whole day.

In the afternoon, after Ning Yao finished a mecha adjustment with those researchers, she prepared to pack up her things and leave.The wedding day is the day after tomorrow, and he has to go back to 'prepare for marriage'. The sergeant said that the car to pick him up is already waiting outside.After Qi Yan's publicity, the researchers all knew that Ning Yao was going to marry Chu Shuo.But they had to be isolated from the world for a long time here, and naturally they couldn't see the wedding, so they each worked out some gadgets for him.

Someone gave Ning Yao some mecha parts, someone gave him a few blueprints, and someone gave him a brand new mechanical arm, but the most troublesome thing for Ning Yao was Qi Yan—he secretly gave Ning Yao a book, and He winked at Ning Yao with that expression of 'you understand and I understand'.

When Ning Yao saw him like this, he knew it was definitely not a good thing, so he didn't watch it on the spot, which made Qi Yan quite disappointed.When she got on the flying car, Ning Yao opened it and looked at it, and immediately blushed unnaturally, and coughed a few times to cover it up.

The non-commissioned officer in the deputy seat turned around and asked him if he was okay.Ning Yao had no choice but to wave her hand and fool around.

Qi Yan, that wretched gossip guy, actually gave him a book of "erotic pictures", and it was the kind just for men.How the hell did he get this book into the Weapons Institute?Didn't the guards check it out?

Forget it, Ning Yao helped her forehead.You can't leave this thing on Chu Shuo's military vehicle, it's better to take it back and destroy it.

In the evening, Du Yueheng asked the kitchen to cook a table of Ning Yao's favorite dishes. Neither Chu Shuo nor Chu Chen came back for dinner, so they were alone at the dinner table.Du Yueheng complained to them like an ordinary housewife, then brought food to Ning Yao with concern, and told Ning Yao about the wedding.

The wedding was arranged by Du Yueheng, and Ning Yao didn't pay much attention to it, so of course she had no objections.It's just that he was listening boredly, but Xiao Xigua sent him an amazing news.

The Thirteenth Prince of Tieria was assassinated on Planet Perrin.

Seeing the news, Ning Yao's expression suddenly turned cold. Combined with the knock on the door in the morning, he probably knew why Chu Shuo and his son didn't come back for dinner.Tieria is a neighboring country of Char, while Perlan is a border planet of another country, Lud.Tieria and Lude had long-standing territorial disputes, and the Star of Perrin was the focus of it. Now that the prince of Tieria was killed in Perlan, it was hard not to be suspected that Lude did it.

There was nothing wrong with Shaar, but the bad thing is that Peilan star is the junction of the three kingdoms of Shaar, Tieria and Lud.And the dead prince, Ning Yao remembered, was Emperor Tieria's favorite.

But why is this idiot running to Perrin at this hour?I didn't know that there had always been disputes there, it was not a peaceful place, why did he go there, and he died there?

Seeing Ning Yao frowning, Du Yueheng asked him what was the matter.This news is not a military secret, and it will spread across the interstellar sea in a short time, so Ning Yao told her the truth.Unexpectedly, Du Yueheng was not surprised at all when he heard this, and his graceful face was still calm, he smiled slightly and said, "Come back tonight and ask Shuo'er, let him accompany you well these few days."

Du Yueheng seemed to have something in his words, and Ning Yao understood after thinking about it.Lude is Char's ally, and if the situation worsens, Char will definitely not be able to stand alone.By that time, Chu Shuo probably won't have much time to go home, and whether he's still in Beiduxing will be a problem.

Ning Yao nodded in response, while telling Xiao Xigua to continue collecting information, while waiting for Chu Shuo to come back and ask.But when he waited until almost eleven o'clock, Chu Shuo was nowhere to be seen. Ning Yao thought he wasn't coming back, but she was a little tired from waiting, and fell asleep while lying down in the guest room.

Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, when the bed sank, someone lifted the quilt and lay down, and stretched out his arms to wrap around Ning Yao's waist.

The embrace was slightly cold, Ning Yao woke up, turned around, "Major General?"

"Yeah." Chu Shuo rested his head on Ning Yao's shoulder, and the warmth of the person in his arms made him very comfortable.

"Chu Shuo?" Seeing that Chu Shuo hadn't opened his eyes, Ning Yao called out again.

Chu Shuo finally opened his eyes, but pushed Ning Yao into his arms domineeringly, "Don't move around, sleep."

Sleep on your head, you want to suffocate me?Ning Yao gave him an annoyed look, then pulled the quilt to find a relatively comfortable position in Chu Shuo's arms.There is no way, there is no reason to let go of the things that Chu Shuo hugged.

Seeing that Chu Shuo was faintly falling asleep, Ning Yao hurriedly called out, "Hey, don't sleep."

From major general to Chu Shuo to hello, Ning Yao demoted Chu Shuo a level by shouting once, which is called Shu Shuo.

"Is something wrong?"

"I want to ask you about Perrin."

"Well, I'm listening." Chu Shuo still did not open his eyes, and only made a faint nasal sound.The smell on Ning Yao's body is very good, faint.

"What is Xia going to do? Will you go there in person?" Ning Yao had a lot of questions to ask, and she was concentrating on thinking, but Chu Shuo's snort made her feel uncomfortable on the other side of her neck, so she couldn't help turning around. Come face to face with him.

Chu Shuo opened his eyes, his eyes were clear, he really didn't know whether his drowsiness just now was real or not, "You don't want me to go?"

"Who doesn't want you to go, I will be free if you go." Ning Yao couldn't help but refute, raising her eyebrows sideways, flamboyant and provocative.

Chu Shuowu grasped Ning Yao's hand under the quilt, traced the palm prints with his fingertips.Looking directly at Ning Yao, "You have always been free."

Who is swearing sovereignty over there under the watchful eyes of everyone?Who pulled me to sleep yesterday?Is there something wrong with this man's logic?Ning Yao bit Chu Shuo's shoulder resentfully, then gave him the back of the head, "Don't ask, you go to sleep in your room."

Unexpectedly, Chu Shuo chuckled, rubbed Ning Yao's hair lovingly, and pulled him into his arms again, "This is my home, my bed, my wife, you still want me to go to bed?" where?"

"Who is your wife!" Ning Yao struggled, but did not move away.

"You." Major General Chu replied truthfully.

Ning Yao was furious, she knew that she should have kicked him yesterday.

Chu Shuo's breath became hotter and hotter under Ning Yao's unyielding writhing, then pinched Ning Yao's butt punitively, and whispered in his ear: "Don't move around, or I won't let yesterday Let’s do it all over again at night.”

Therefore, Ning Yao was very decisive and did not move anymore.

Chu Shuo is the most boring man in the universe, and his identification has been completed.
