After landing steadily on an empty landing strip and jumping down in slippers, the boundless starry sky stretched overhead.

“We don’t have specific information on his location. My rank is low, and I don’t have the authority to access it,” Lieutenant Lin explained.

Upon hearing this, Ming Huan’s expression visibly became more restless, fingers clenching. “I’m sorry.”

Lieutenant Lin was taken aback. With a beautiful straight nose, Ming Huan seemed even thinner these days. His excessively beautiful appearance almost trampled on the pride of all alphas.

“Are you… talking about my exile?” The usually meticulous Lieutenant Lin unexpectedly smiled, “No wonder I noticed your mood wasn’t right. So, you still remember that. You don’t owe me an apology. If you hadn’t suppressed the mental energy of Xie’s child for me that day, I might not have survived.” Lieutenant Lin smiled, “You don’t need to worry about these trivial matters. Actually, ranks and such are just illusions. Look, the last time, what’s the problem? General Zhou is still in contact with me across several levels—” Lieutenant Lin lowered his voice and discreetly placed a clearance key in Ming Huan’s hand, “Moreover, this fighter jet was specially approved for entry into the exile zone, just a formality. In fact, if you trust someone, you trust them. So, I’m not wronged, and you don’t need to mind these small matters. At any time, I will be loyal to the Federation, loyal to the top. But, General Zhou has a message for you if you encounter Xie—” Lieutenant Lin’s face suddenly changed slightly.

Ming Huan turned around, just in time to see a small aircraft landing. Looking at the emblem on the aircraft, it bore the unique symbol of Xie’s military manufacturing industry.

“You go first.” Ming Huan knew he shouldn’t appear in front of Xie Jue now.

Lieutenant Lin pressed down his military cap, quickly evading back onto the transshipment fighter jet.

Ming Huan lightly swept the clearance key onto the door, entering the base interior. By specifying the location on the connected key, the terminal immediately displayed the topography of the entire base.

After taking a few steps, he was suddenly called out, “Young Master Ming, is it really you? I haven’t seen you for the past few days. I thought you weren’t involved. Turns out…”

Suddenly realizing Ming Huan was still in sleepwear and slippers, “Am I disturbing your rest?”

It was quite disruptive. Don’t you even check the time? Ming Huan had cold eyes, “Uncle Xie still has time to come to the front line.”

“You have grown a lot.” Xie Jue looked up and down at Ming Huan, who was almost as much of an alpha as he was. He had his usual kind smile on his face, and somewhat sad eyes. It was as if he was haggard because of his son’s affairs, but his eyes were shining, and he was in great spirits, “If Xiao Ci could see you like this now, he would be very happy. “

Ming Huan’s gaze turned cold whenever he saw Xie Jue.

“It’s rumored that your relationship with Yu Hanzhou isn’t very good. Is it because you’re about to differentiate, leading to some extreme tendencies in your personality? Actually, these things aren’t a big deal. During Xiao Ci’s growth period, his temper was quite different from before,” Xie Jue mentioned something heartbreaking, “But I really didn’t expect Xiao Ci to be an alpha. As for Xiao Ci’s situation… I suppose you also know. I never expected that he would cause such a major incident, a mental energy riot for no apparent reason.”

No apparent reason? Was it really for no apparent reason? Wasn’t it because you concealed his differentiation that led to this? Ming Huan clenched his fists, a faint SSS Level pressure emanating from him, “Wasn’t it because of the differentiation probability that triggered the mental energy riot?”

“How could it be? It seems you really don’t know. He was needlessly provoked by an officer under Yu Hanzhou, which angered him and led to the riot. Poor thing, his mental energy has been unstable since he differentiated…”

Humph. A mouthful of lies. Yu Hanzhou, did you let him spread such falsehoods to protect someone like him? Ming Huan was not very good at hiding his expression, and his face sank.

Xie Jue was so astute that he immediately caught this micro-expression, and he sighed, “Our Xiao Ci really, after differentiation, still always hoped to see you, but just had not been able to contact you -“

“He really likes you a lot. If he hadn’t accidentally differentiated into an alpha, he would have been your husband and spent one night with you.”

‘Why didn’t you report it when he accidentally differentiated into an alpha?!’

‘Was it not for the development rights of the mineral star?!’

‘Why did Xie Jue’s words give off a prying feeling?’ It seemed as if he didn’t have the slightest idea that he differentiated into an omega and matched with Yu Hanzhou. His words seemed like he wanted to push Xie Shuci’s differentiation to Yu Hanzhou.

Ming Huan’s face was even colder, and he subconsciously wanted to grab Xie Shuci and not let go, “He -“

“Ming Huan.” A familiar voice suddenly came from behind him.

Ming Huan’s back was cold, and he turned around to see Yu Hanzhou’s cold and steely gaze. He was a little alarmed by such a gaze. In his memory, Yu Hanzhou’s gaze seemed rough and cold at times, but it was rarely like this one where there was a little suspicion like scrutiny.

“Yu Hanzhou,” Xie Jue leaned down only slightly as he made his way to leave, “I just came to deliver some material, so I won’t disturb you two, father and son.”

“Why are you here?” Yu Hanzhou stared at his pajama pants and slippers, “Who brought you here?”

“Xie….”

“I don’t want to discuss Xie Shuci with you.” Yu Hanzhou’s tone was also icy to the extreme. His eyes crossed Ming Huan and seemed to fall somewhere behind him.

Ming Huan felt something. Xie Jue hadn’t gone yet. He also coldly said, “Then I have nothing to say to you.”

Xie Jue’s vehicle had not yet left, and Ming Huan stood in the same place for a while. he still did not hear the sound of the vehicle starting.

“Come here.”

Ming Huan dragged his steps in the direction of Yu Hanzhou, and had just entered Yu Hanzhou’s room when the door closed with a thud. The room was filled with a strong smell of inhibitor mixed with alcohol.

There was still half a glass of spirits on the table, and Ming Huan fingertips ran across the rim of the glass before he picked up the glass and drank it all.

The strong wine went into his throat, provoking a cough. The light in the room turned on with a snap, causing Ming Huan to open his eyes a little.

Clang.

The cup in his hand was slammed before it rolled down on the carpet at his feet. The ice of the cup leaked out and rolled onto his feet, and his socks were blotted in a small area.

His throat burned with the fire of spirits, but the heel of his foot was bone-chillingly cold.

Yu Hanzhou’s kisses also came fiercely, almost to the point of nibbling at his lips and stealing all of his breath, “Who brought you here, what are you doing here, didn’t I say that you should stay in-“

The tone of his voice was very different from the one earlier.

Ming Huan was dazed by the kiss, and subconsciously coveted the familiar warmth of Yu Hanzhou’s body.

It had been such a long time since they had seen each other. Both of them were breathing a bit unevenly. Yu Hanzhou inexplicably loosened his tie, picked up the ice cubes from the floor, and threw them away. Ming Huan took off his socks, wet from the spilled water. His slender white feet had turned red from the ice, and now there was a hint of scalding pain.

Ming Huan had a thin waist. Stripping off his military jacket, he was left in a thin layer of sleepwear. Yu Hanzhou furrowed his brows, smacking his well-lifted buttocks with a slap. “Why don’t you dress properly.”

They both tumbled into the bed. Ming Huan, however, grabbed onto Yu Hanzhou’s sleeve. It seemed like the alcohol had gotten to him; his cheeks were particularly red. But then he suddenly started crying. Very quietly, very delicately, the sound of his crying, accompanied by the tremble of his breath, seemed to shatter Yu Hanzhou’s heart in an instant.

Loosening his tie, Yu Hanzhou also sat on the bed, holding a small white-feathered dragon through the blanket. “Why are you crying?”

“Yu Hanzhou—” Ming Huan stretched the end of his voice and called his name.

At that moment, his heart softened. He went under the covers and found the little dragon in the position that he slept in regularly, curled up with his legs and hands. His broad palm then rubbed his pair of heels for him, and the tip of his nose was also rubbed, “Why are you crying like this?”

“Why would Xie Jue pick on you and me?” Ming Huan sniffled.

“He has a tricky mind, you should deal with him less.” Yu Hanzhou lowered his eyes, “There are many who want to make money off of the war, he is one of them. But one thing, do not reveal to anyone that you are omega. I will let people send you back, until this war is over, do not come back.”

“I don’t want to go back.”

Ming Huan grabbed Yu Hanzhou’s hand, “It’s empty there.”

Yu Hanzhou’s gaze was faint, and they fell on Ming Huan’s body.

He actually felt a slight trembling feeling.

He originally thought that the little dragon did not understand his disposition on things related to Xie Shuci, but he was also angry for a long time.

Before he left, he deliberately gave him some space as he did not want to force him into a tight spot and bore him.

He did not expect that Ming Huan would say something like this.

“The results of the technical institute’s investigation came out.” Ming Huan suddenly thought of something.

“Mn.”

“My pheromone, to the generic inhibitor–“

Yu Hanzhou pursed his lips and did not speak. He only kissed Ming Huan’s brow, “There is a 179% enhancement effect, it is already an extreme breakthrough.”

Ming Huan’s eyes went gray. Yu Hanzhou only mentioned the generic inhibitor, not the special effects inhibitor.

‘If it only worked for the generic inhibitor, then it was indeed possible to raise the nation’s happiness for ordinary dragons. What about the dragons with very strong mental energy?’

“What about for the special effect inhibitor, how much is the backlash weakened?”

“13%.”

‘So low.’

“Useless.” Ming Huan pressed his head, “I am already an SSS-Level omega pheromone. but the special effects inhibitor’s repercussions are still so low. Four hundred years before I hatched, you have to wait for how many more four hundred years, to get enough dragon pheromone information, to solve all this….”

Technology was supposed to be backwards as they did not know how much of it can be solved.

Not to mention that there were people like Xie Jue who were full of ambition, and the Empire’s side was like a tiger watching.

The Federation’s side of technology once had some breakthroughs. To get to the precious energy star, this could always trigger endless wars.

Each war would consume financial and material resources, slowing down the development of technology.

It was a cycle.

It didn’t work.

Ming Huan’s head curled up and buried into the blanket.

“Xie Shuci, can’t get out for life, right?”

“And all those dragons who had to take cryogenic dormancy measures because of the mental energy riots, they….”

“Never come out again.”

Yu Hanzhou lifted Ming Huan’s chin and gently kissed away the teardrops on his face, “Don’t say that, it’s better now than it was 400 years ago…. There is always hope.”

“I’m terrible, if only I could have found out Xie Shuci’s differentiation earlier… Why could I only smoothly differentiate, why only me?”

Ming Huan’s eyelashes were wet, and Yu Hanzhou just kept kissing his eyes, as if the tears would stop flowing as long as those beautiful eyes were closed.

“It’s not that you’re bad.”

“It’s this world, it’s bad in itself.”

Yu Hanzhou frowned, “Differentiation probability, it’s a dangerous thing. Luckily you are fine….”

‘I just want you to be healthy,’ The alpha once said this countless times, and let the little dragon feel the incomparable nonsense of his sentence. This feeling once again surfaced in his ears.

It turns out that growing up healthy is really such a hard thing to do.

‘It’s because Yu Hanzhou was there, so you can avoid the danger of death, right?’

Otherwise, with the alpha differentiation probability turning into an omega – he would not be able to survive the mental riot of the final differentiation.

Ming Huan had never felt so alone. After 17 days, when he hugged the person in front of him again, he gradually turned from slight sobbing to bawling. His tears and snot were rubbed on Yu Hanzhou.

When he hugged him, it was as if he had found a piece of driftwood in the floating sea.

He remembered the ‘bedtime story’ that Yu Hanzhou had told him.

“Yu Hanzhou, on the fishing planet, they went one by one because of the mental energy riot, only you survived. At that time, you would have also cried.”

Yu Hanzhou smiled and rubbed Ming Huan’s forehead. His face that was full of tears from the sloppy crying was wiped, “Would cry.”

“So I went out of the fisheries star to see more types of planets that would be good for little dragon eggs. There was no time to cry.”

The voice paused for a joke that was not really a joke.

“After all, I’m not sure which planet will be best for our little dragon eggs and which will be good for my future husband.”

Ming Huan used to have little reaction to Yu Hanzhou saying these kind of affectionate words. He did not know why when he listened to them now, the tips of his ears suddenly turned slightly red.

His face was delicate, and the alpha couldn’t help but lower his head  to slightly bite the tip of his ear, “What?”

“Xiao Huan, are you–“

Ming Huan, as if he realized what he wanted to ask and his whole face smoked with red. Yu Hanzhou leaned in so close that he could hear Ming Huan’s ever-violent beating heart.

“A little ’emotional basis’ for me.”

Ming Huan did not answer, and the entire little dragon drunkenly lay down in Yu Hanzhou arms to let him kiss his cheeks and nose tip.

He heard Yu Hanzhou laughing softly.

“Yu Hanzhou, do you really like me?” Ming Huan felt kind of uneasy. He always felt that he could marry Yu Hanzhou because of the mutual match, not because of the so-called ‘love’.

He felt this even at the time of the license.

He didn’t think that he could ‘fall in love’ with this old-fashioned white feathered dragon who was 400 years older than him.

It had been less than a month, but at the moment when he leaned next to him, he felt more at ease than ever before.

He didn’t know if it was because of the effect of alcohol, but when they kissed, it also produced a tingling heartbeat.

“Of course I like you. I have long said that we must be in love with each other.”

‘What a ridiculous statement? How can Yu Hanzhou say it with such certainty?’

“From body, to soul. No one is more compatible than us.”

The strong smell of inhibitor on Yu Hanzhou’s body made Ming Huan’s heart turn sour.

‘What the hell?’

‘Such a fucked up world, why would people like Yu Hanzhou be born in it?’

‘It was a silly way to hold on to something that had no hope at all, holding heavy power in your hands, but being only interested in others – this white feathered dragon, stupid.’

“Yu Hanzhou, I must be…. Brain-damaged.”

Ming Huan circled his neck and rolled over before he sat on his body. He lowered his head and initiated a kiss with Yu Hanzhou.

The other party’s breath snapped.

This was the first time that Ming Huan took the initiative to kiss him.

Yu Hanzhou’s head immediately tore up with the usual pain, and the inhibitor’s repercussions in his body vainly desired to constantly aggravate him, like a rift valley straight into the abyss.

He tightened his grip on Ming Huan’s waist. His fingers burned, and every inch of his body seemed to be on fire.

‘This is what-’

‘The real stirring when you get your dragon companion back.’

Yu Hanzhou felt the complete return of his not-yet-married little husband at this moment!

‘Green and tender.’

‘Incredibly direct.’

“Mark me.” Ming Huan sat on Yu Hanzhou’s lap, and his hand propped up on his chest, “Your mental energy loss is big, this won’t work. You’ve been in a bad mental state lately…. Too naggy.” The little dragon’s face flushed, “I hate the smell of inhibitors on you. The kiss. Stinks.”
