P.S. Also, as I forewarned, there are many long chapters to come. E.g., This one – 73 – is 4x normal length.
There were huge discussions all across the network regarding the identity of the second prince and the press conference in the evening. The hot search list was completely occupied by these contents.
Everyone speculated that the heir would be the first prince or the second prince.
The eldest prince Luo Yi has been favored since he was a child. He grew up in the Imperial Capital Star. He is very knowledgeable. He graduated from Noah Military Academy and has already made some achievements in the military. He also has a 90% matching partner.
In contrast, the second prince was driven to a barren star since he was a child. His identity is unknown, his whereabouts are unknown, and he has nothing but the blood of the royal family.
Therefore, most people are not optimistic about this mysterious second prince.
In the afternoon, the royal family began to prepare for a grand press conference.
The press conference was held in the Golden Conference Hall of the Royal Palace.
Luo Wenchuan was choosing a dress in the huge cloakroom of the palace.
He doesn’t like wearing such clothes very much, but he still chooses slowly with patience. After all, he will appear in front of the camera in his real identity and will be seen by Yun Xingze.
At this moment, the first prince, Luo Yi, suddenly appeared.
Luo Yi has always despised this younger brother who grew up on the barren star. He always thought he was deeply favored by his father, and he didn’t even bother to compare with Luo Wenchuan.
After all, Luo Wenchuan was far worse than him.
“You haven’t worn these clothes for a long time, right?” Luo Yi showed a gentle expression and said to Luo Wenchuan. “Seeing you back here, I’m happy for you.”
Luo Wenchuan looked up at him with a flat tone: “Really, then thank you.”
“However, I heard that your pheromone allergy hasn’t been cured.” Luo Yi looked at Luo Wenchuan with a little hidden meaning. “I don’t know if there’s an omega you can match. As a brother, I am very worried for you.”
The implication is that because Luo Wenchuan can’t even find a matching omega, the threat of competing for the throne is naturally much smaller.
Luo Wenchuan’s finger paused, and then immediately relaxed. “No need for you to worry.”
Luo Yi smiled slightly. “I’m not worried, but I think father and mother will be very worried…”
At this moment, a female voice came from beside him, interrupting Luo Yi’s words: “Since this is the case, there is no need for elder brother to say these words for them?”
The person who came was the third princess, Luo Di.
The third princess is an omega. She is slightly younger than Luo Wenchuan, and has a straightforward and frank personality. She has no intention of fighting for power with her brothers, and likes researching mechas.
However, Luo Di’s mental strength is not high enough, so she can’t drive mechas, and it can only be regarded as a hobby.
Luo Yi has never confronted Luo Di before. His face stiffened, and he turned to leave the room while maintaining his composure.
“You have time to come over today?” Luo Wenchuan raised his eyebrows to look at Luo Di.
“Of course. I came to attend the important event of announcing the heir.” Luo Di smiled and said. “By the way, I watched the NCLM game. Your performance was amazing.”
“You’re still the same as before. Very interested in mecha.” Luo Wenchuan said slowly, “It’s a pity you can’t drive mecha.”
“Yeah.” Luo Di lowered her eyes slightly, but she immediately showed a mysterious smile. “However, I heard that Mecha Research Institute is already developing a mental power amplifier, and it will be successful soon.”
Luo Wenchuan’s eyes flashed with surprise. After a while, he said, “Your news is really well-informed.”
“There are not many people who know the news.” Luo Di lowered her voice. “I had to ask Uncle Cheng Yuan for a long time before he was willing to tell me.”
“It’s not easy to develop this.” Luo Wenchuan frowned slightly. “Maybe it will take a long time…”
“Then you underestimate the Mecha Research Institute.” Luo Di continued. “You know, the institute has recently found a big guy, the kind of big guy who is like a god. I heard that there will be a big move recently.”
Luo Wenchuan raised his eyebrows and asked: “Really, the mecha world is going to change.”
“But I don’t know what that big guy looks like.” Luo Di’s eyes were filled with admiration as she talked about this ‘big guy’. “You say, who do you think can be so great to shock the scientific research institute by themself?”
Luo Wenchuan was slightly startled. After hearing Luo Di’s words, he somehow remembered Yun Xingze.
Yun Xingze also likes mechas like Luo Di, but he has a lot more knowledge of mechas than Luo Di. In Luo Wenchuan’s opinion, he is already a big boss.
If Yun Xingze can enter the Mecha Research Institute, he should not be inferior to anyone else.

Now, on the other side.
Yun Xingze came to the Price Hotel accompanied by the Yun family,
The Price Hotel is a high ranking hotel, and the people who can book a hotel box are either very rich or are dignitaries.
Yun Changsheng asked Yun Xingze to dress formally, saying that it was to give the Chi family the last bit of face.
Yun Xingze grabbed a formal suit from the closet and put it on. He didn’t want to give any face to the Chi family.
However, it couldn’t hide his hard training this period of time. His body was getting better and better, and he was now like a clothes hanger1as in looks good in anything.
Standing next to his younger alpha brother, Yun Wu, he was not inferior at all.
After arriving at the hotel, Yun Changsheng took Yun Xingze to a rest room and asked him to wait here for the start of the dinner.
Yun Xingze put down his backpack which was packed with a lot of luggage. He planned to leave the Imperial Capital Star with Luo Wenchuan after the banquet. He did not want to have to stay here a moment longer.
It’s almost five o’clock in the evening.
Yun Xingze did not know that at this moment, in the hotel lobby, guests poured in in an endless stream.
Yun Changsheng, Chi Yin and others stood at the door, constantly accepting congratulations from the guests.
“Oh, I didn’t expect that the two of you are really engaged, congratulations.”
“It’s not easy for these two children to get engaged, and their marriage will definitely last for a long time in the future.”
“Ah, why don’t I see Chi Yu or Xingze?”
Hearing this, Yun Changsheng replied, “Omegas are shy, so they stayed upstairs.”
The guests entered the banquet hall on the tenth floor of the hotel all dressed up very grandly. It can be seen that Chi Yin has long been preparing for this event.
Chi Yu couldn’t contain his excitement –Â he was about to get engaged to Yun Xingze!
He felt like he was dreaming.
Yun Changsheng and Chi Yu were busy entertaining guests, but did not notice that Qin Shuang suddenly disappeared from the crowd.
Yun Xingze sat in the room on the ninth floor, taking the time to check the design of the connector on the optical brain.
The door was suddenly opened, and Qin Shuang came in from outside.
Yun Xingze was slightly startled, put away his light brain, and looked at Qin Shuang. “The dinner has begun?”
Qin Shuang’s eyes flashed with a touch of discomfort. After a while, she closed the door and took a deep breath, as if suppressing some kind of feeling in her heart.
Yun Xingze frowned: “What’s wrong with you?”
“Xingze,” Qin Shuang closed his eyes, then looked at Yun Xingze, and said slowly, “I have something to tell you.”
Seeing Qin Shuang’s expression, Yun Xingze suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
Under Yun Xingze’s vigilant gaze, Qin Shuang continued: “The next thing you are going to attend is not a dinner party, but an engagement banquet with Chi Yu…”
Qin Shuang’s voice was very soft, with a bit of trembling, but went off like a bomb in the room. Yun Xingze’s eyes widened in astonishment.
A few seconds later, he shouted out in surprise: “Engagement banquet?!”
His voice was full of disbelief and shock.
Seeing Yun Xingze so agitated, Qin Shuang hurriedly said to him, “Xingze, I’m here to tell you about this, because I want you to be mentally prepared…”
“Who are you kidding?!” Yun Xingze wrinkled his brows, his eyes full of resistance. “I have clearly rejected the Chi family yesterday. How can an engagement banquet be held without my consent?!”
“I’m not kidding!” Qin Shuang said anxiously, “The royal press conference will be held at 5 o’clock. In addition to announcing the identity of the heir, there is also a nationwide implementation of a law. That is, alphas and omegas with a high degree of matching must be together…”
And it begins…
