Gu WenCheng gradually warmed Li ZouXing back to life. He poured all his tenderness into Li ZouXing. Whatever was left for others remained the same, but with just one love, it gave him a completely different side.
Li ZouXing’s life with him was truly wonderful.
At times, they fought against space pirates who committed evil deeds in the universe, and at other times, they were thrown into virtual worlds for brutal and inhumane training. The increasing physical demands also led to a surge in Li ZouXing’s desires.
In the beginning, Gu WenCheng was always ready to fulfill his needs. He let Li ZouXing take the lead, but Li ZouXing never truly let go. He didn’t know how many times or for how long he needed to satisfy himself, and he was afraid that Gu WenCheng might not be able to endure it, so he always stopped before going too far.
Once Gu WenCheng understood his concerns, he was left feeling heartbroken. He was quite determined and confident, saying, “I can handle it.”
After all, there was still the effect of NK03, how could he not endure it?
But in the end… Li ZouXing tactfully reduced the frequency.
When Gu WenCheng cried, he knew that he had reached his limit in that regard.
With Li ZouXing’s abundant energy, he could only expend it through physical activity, but Gu WenCheng, who was not sparing in his attention, couldn’t resist provoking him when he saw him in motion.
Later, Li ZouXing realized that human potential is boundless. Not only do they cry when they’re in pain, but they also cry when they’re pleased. Once they surpass that threshold, there’s a whole new world waiting for them.
No matter how they wander, they can do so with ease.
…
The single dogs continued to be miserably teased as usual.
But at least, they had learned to find joy in their suffering. It’s okay, there were still four single brothers with them.
Prince Yin Sa invited them to the palace once again. But when they arrived at the palace, they only saw the exquisitely dressed princess in the palace.
The princess’s appearance tonight was particularly beautiful, with a hint of blush on her cheeks. She turned her head away from Ling Nian’s gaze.
If they hadn’t witnessed the scene of her assaulting the emperor earlier, she would have been the epitome of a gentle and virtuous lady.
Li ZouXing seemed to have a sense of it and whispered into Gu WenCheng’s ear, “She’s going to confess.”
Gu WenCheng’s sensitive ears moved slightly, and he smiled, saying, “Very likely.”
“We should make space for Ling Nian,” Li ZouXing continued, his gaze drawn to Gu WenCheng’s earlobe. He playfully toyed with it. “The royal garden has many things we haven’t seen yet. How about a date?”
Gu Wen Cheng walked away with him, smiling, “This is a date?”
“Not romantic?”
“Rushed romance.”
They walked away hand in hand, their silhouettes matching, and their voices gradually faded.
Ji Yu took Si Wo Lin and Xi Nan out, laughing, “Let’s go disturb them on their date.”
The entire empire now knew that Li ZouXing and Gu WenCheng were dating.
In a world set to be an all-BG story, the tremendous hidden potential underpinning the world surged and swept across the entire galaxy.
The love between Gu WenCheng and Li ZouXing rekindled the essence that this world should have possessed.
If not for their military ranks and their status as the Empire’s future pillars, the gossip media would have inundated them, exposing every sweet word and intimate moment to satisfy the curiosity of the entire world.
However, due to their unique positions, less information led to even greater curiosity from the empire’s citizens.
The princess watched as they walked away, leaving only her and Ling Nian in the palace.
She initiated the conversation, “Ah, Li ZouXing and Gu WenCheng have such a great relationship.”
Although Ling Nian was usually quiet, there was no one more supportive of the two of them than him. He relaxed his expression and nodded, “Mm.”
After “Mm,” the two of them once again froze like statues.
“You…”
“I…”
Ling Nian remained expressionless, his ears quietly turning red. “Do you want to see my mental powers?”
The princess blushed beet red, her voice barely audible. She nodded, “Sure.”
…
In the palace garden.
Ji Yu and his two companions couldn’t find a trace of Li ZouXing and Gu WenCheng. They were puzzled. They were only a moment apart. Where did they go?
They continued walking, passing by the lush trees along their way.
But high up in the treetops, Li ZouXing and Gu WenCheng sat closely, embracing each other passionately.
Gu WenCheng held Li ZouXing’s waist as he was tightly cradled in his arms, intimate and close.
The sunlight filtered through the leaves, shining on the couple who openly displayed their affection.
…
The Empire celebrated a grand wedding for its princess.
A shower of flower petals fell like a deluge, and the pure white wedding gown trailed behind the Princess. She walked hand in hand with Emperor Kate, step by step, approaching Ling Nian, who stood waiting in the front.
Ling Nian felt stiff, unable to move a muscle. Behind him, his brothers were in their own little world. Li ZouXing and Gu WenCheng whispered to each other, while Xi Nan and Si Wo Lin, along with Ji Yu, muttered quietly about how Ling Nian had betrayed them by finding a girlfriend first. None of them had the heart to comfort Ling Nian and tell him to relax and not be nervous.
His left ear was filled with sweet nothings from the same-sex couple, while his right ear was bombarded by low IQ complaints.
Ling Nian nearly lost his composure and considered giving them all a piece of his mind.
But as the princess got closer, all he could hear was the accelerating beat of his own heart.
The Emperor teased his daughter, and their steps grew slower. “My dear Abby, your old father hopes you’ll take this path a bit more slowly.”
Princess Abby tugged at her father, almost dragging Emperor Kate a few steps faster.
The Emperor, being led along, calmly took out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
The wedding went smoothly, and after the ceremony, Li ZouXing and Gu WenCheng were caught by the reporters who had been waiting.
“May we ask if the two of you are preparing to get married?”
Li ZouXing turned to look at Gu WenCheng, and coincidentally, Gu WenCheng also turned to look at him.
One camera after another dutifully broadcasted their every glance and interaction.
There are those kinds of people whose interactions make others feel a flutter in their hearts.
Li ZouXing took Gu WenCheng’s hand and lightly kissed it. “The Empire hasn’t passed any same-sex marriage laws yet. Colonel Raymond once told me that to change the marriage laws, we would need more than three-quarters of the Empire’s citizens to vote in favor.”
Gu WenCheng’s smile deepened, and he looked at him intently.
His lips were slightly swollen at this moment, especially plump when magnified on the screen, a fullness known to adults, the result of passionate kisses.
After saying this, Li ZouXing stared directly into the camera, his black eyes serious and sincere, and he said, “Can we count on all of you?”
This statement, and the image of him looking directly into the camera, even hundreds of years later, would be written into the Empire’s history.
It would be referred to as the “epoch-making catalyst.”
The entire Empire was buzzing with excitement over the change in the marriage law. There was hardly any time to read through the rapidly scrolling comments. The change in the marriage law had ignited the desires of anyone who had feelings for someone of the same sex.
Supporters and opponents filled the StarNet, taking up half the virtual landscape.
Three days later.
The Empire’s government announced that the proposal had passed.
With a voting rate of over ninety percent in favor of the change, it passed perfectly.
…
If Ling Nian and the princess’s wedding was considered grand, then Gu WenCheng and Li ZouXing’s wedding was as simple as it could get.
They held their wedding in secret on a small island. On the wedding day, Ling Nian held a little mermaid to be their youthful officiant.
It was because Li ZouXing’s first confession to Gu WenCheng had taken place under the witness of the little mermaid. The magical blessing of the little mermaid made it the perfect choice for their officiant.
The little mermaid was placed in a pool of azure water, happily swimming around. When the ceremony began, it tried to put on a serious expression on its small face.
A childish voice sounded in front of Li ZouXing and Gu WenCheng.
They earnestly went through each step of the ceremony, then embraced each other and shared a kiss.
Gu WenCheng sighed, holding Li ZouXing in his arms. “You truly belong to me now.”
Their mental energy flowed out of their bodies, intertwining and forming a large heart shape in front of the assembled crowd.
Even those who had witnessed them many times couldn’t help but be amazed once more. Their mental energy merged, weaved, and separated so effortlessly. How much trust and love must they have for each other? They were truly meant for each other, and no outsider could interfere.
The little mermaid sang blessings for them and, inquisitively, looked at Gu WenCheng’s belly. “Big brother, will you have a little baby?”
On this joyous day, Gu WenCheng tried hard to keep a straight face, suppressing the veins popping out on his forehead. He restrained himself from turning the little roasted mermaid. “I’m a man.”
Li ZouXing was already starting to laugh.
“But our male mermaids can have little mermaid babies too,” the little mermaid inquired innocently. “Why can’t big brother? Is it because he’s not trying hard enough?”
Li ZouXing chuckled, patting the little mermaid’s head. “You’re quite knowledgeable.”
Gu WenCheng gave him a meaningful look, and the dangerous instinct made the little mermaid obediently close its mouth and timidly retreat to the bottom of the water.
Li ZouXing embraced Gu WenCheng and teased, “How about making your belly bulge tonight?”
Gu WenCheng’s hand rested on Li ZouXing’s neck, and he warmly smiled before flipping him into the water.
The remaining bachelors of the Dream Team now numbered three. These three bachelors decided to be self-reliant and attempt to end their single status.
However, each attempt ended in failure, and finally, a bizarre message appeared on the Chenyang Military Academy’s forum, stating that the three remaining members of the Dream Team were perennial bachelors, destined to remain single for life.
The disheartened three consoled each other and shed tears of loneliness.
It was initially expected that after getting a girlfriend, Ling Nian might distance himself from the Dream Team to some extent. But to everyone’s surprise, he seemed unchanged. He spent his days eating, living, and being with the Dream Team. Even when conflicts arose between his dates and his brothers, Ling Nian unhesitatingly chose his brothers.
Not to mention the various missions issued by the Empire from time to time. Throughout the year, it seemed like Ling Nian wasn’t in a romantic relationship with the princess but rather in a romance with the Dream Team.
The Dream Team’s teammates were both heartened and concerned about this, fearing that the relationship between the two would face problems. However, the princess had evidently prepared for such situations. She accepted it gracefully and assured them not to worry.
Whether it was the legendary Dream Team or an ordinary soldier in the Empire, they all had their unique stories to tell.
Their families had undoubtedly endured loneliness and solitude, displaying strong hearts, rivaling even heroes, supporting them as they moved forward relentlessly.
Whether they ventured into danger or toward the light, their families would offer unconditional support whenever needed.
At times like these, the princess would envy Li ZouXing and Gu WenCheng, who could fight side by side.
Sharing both joy and pain, they obtained glory and accomplishments together. They explored every mysterious corner of the universe, rescuing those who awaited their salvation.
Raising their glasses in a toast, they would accompany each other forever.
Such a life was undeniably filled with happiness.
