Chapter 13: Dream.
Tang Yuhang raised his eyebrows in surprise. Someone could catch this big brother’s attention? Even his little brother who had a beautiful appearance still couldn’t make Zhang Gushen’s stone heart shake. Just who on earth was that person?
“This is the person I’m interested in. Does he look cute?” Zhang Gushen smiled proudly and showed them the photo in his communicator. Everyone looked at the picture that appeared in the air. It was a young man with silver hair, he was drinking bubble tea with his head hung down, making a strand of hair blocking his eyebrows.
There was a hand touching his head, and the young man didn’t seem to mind it at all, he even sat there, drinking obediently.
Yue Lan touched her chin, and mumbled, “Why did I feel a little familiar?” Because the young man bowed his head, none of the people present could see his face clearly.
Tang Yuhang’s eyes opened wide. He was really familiar with this young man. Therefore, he looked up at Zhang Gushen, and said seriously, “Big brother.”
“Huh?” Zhang Gushen became tense immediately. Because he was very aware that whenever Tang Yuhang called him ‘Big brother’, something serious would happen. What’s more, if talking about the age between these five people, Yue Lan and Baili Jiuning were two years older than the three men, while Zhang Gushen was six months older than Nangong Fuqiang and Tang Yuhang.
Tang Yuhang said slowly, “You said this little guy is the person you’ve been interested in?”
Zhang Gushen nodded.
Tang Yuhang: “Where did you meet him? What is his name? And what is he majoring in? Is he an omega?”
A bunch of questions was thrown out to Zhang Gushen in one go, making the other people shocked.
Baili Jiuning thought that Tang Yuhang might feel uncomfortable because Zhang Gushen talked about another person instead of his little brother, therefore, she hurriedly said, “Hey…”
Zhang Gushen ignored her and responded to Tang Yuhang, “I met him during training when I’m injured. His name is Tang Yuliang.” He paused. “He had the same name as your little brother. He is an omega medical student.”
Tang Yuhang looked at him like an idiot. “Big brother, do you think everything can be so coincidence that even they can have the same name?”
Zhang Gushen was stunned. “What do you mean…”
Tang Yuhang: “The young man in the picture usually has a cold face, fierce and has a short temperature, right?”
“Yes, why did you know?” Zhang Gushen nodded.
Tang Yuhang sighed and pointed to the picture. “That person is my little brother. What surprised me is this picture. He lets you touch his head and doesn’t even reject your existence at all.”
Everyone was stunned.
Zhang Gushen was shocked that he could hardly open his mouth. “What?!”
Yue Lan crossed her arms and said with a smile. “No wonder why I feel familiar. He is actually Xiao Liang, so the person who caught A-Shen’s attention is Xiao Liang?”
Tang Yuhang felt a bit complicated. It seemed like their Tang Family’s only treasure had already been abducted by this big brother long ago. “A-Shen, you and Xiao Liang…”
Zhang Gushen hurriedly explained, “No, I don’t even know that he is your younger brother, neither does he know that I’m his fiancé.”
Murong Fuqian asked, “How long have you two known each other?”
Zhang Gushen hesitated a little but seeing everyone was eager to know, he could only say it out, “Two years already.”
Tang Yuhang was so shocked that he opened his mouth wide and didn’t know what to say for a while. These two people had been acquaintances for two years, yet they didn’t seem so at all since none of them knew each other’s true identity.
Baili Jiuning shook the glass of red wine lightly before she drank it. “So you two have maintained the kind of relationship that didn’t dig into other people’s privacy?”
Zhang Gushen nodded. “Yeah.”
Murong Fuqiang glanced at the young man beside him with a strange look. “A-Shen, we know that you’ve always been shameless since you were young, and what you want to get, you’ll not hesitate to get it with your power.”
Zhang Gushen heard this couldn’t help coughing lightly, his expression gradually turned embarrassed. “What do you think of Little Cat?”
“Huh?” The people around the table said in one voice, they looked at Zhang Gushen in bafflement.
Only at this moment, did Zhang Gushen realize that he had said something wrong again, thus he said once more with a calm expression as if it wasn’t him talking just now. “I mean, what do you think of Xiao Liang?”
However, when this question was asked, Tang Yuhang’s focus point was not here. “Little cat is Xiao Liang’s nickname?”
Zhang Gushen glanced at Tang Yuhang lightly, he couldn’t help cursing this future brother-in-law in his heart for being too keen. “This isn’t what you should focus on, okay?”
Zhang Gushen’s words had already confirmed his guess, the corner of Tang Yuhang’s mouth twitched slightly, he raised his eyes, and said to everyone, “I suddenly feel like the person A-Shen is talking about isn’t my little brother anymore.” Because he is too different from when he was with us!
Zhang Gushen shifted back to the topic earlier. “The reason that I don’t want to know much about his privacy is that I’m afraid when he finds out, he will beat me.”
Everyone: “Ah?!”
Yue Lan felt this remark was incredible, an omega beat an alpha? This was too ridiculous, but she somehow thought it was possible if that omega was Tang Yuliang. “You didn’t dare to fight back?”
Zhang Gushen was silent with embarrassment.
Murong Fuqian: “You didn’t even release your pheromone to test him?”
Baili Jiuning: “Not even dared to argue back either?”
One question after another, bombarded Zhang Gushen, leaving no place for him to retreat. They didn’t bother at all whether Zhang Gushen felt uncomfortable by these questions because everyone knew clearly about this shameless man’s personality. Besides, they were all old friends, knowing each other since childhood, hence there was no need to be formal between them.
Moreover, the rumors that spread around the whole empire were half true and half false. The five big families indeed used to be at odds with each other. However, it continued like this until it came to Zhang Gushen’s generation that everything changed. He gradually made friends with the other three big families who were in the same generation as him, which made the older generation realize what they had done during their period, and afterward, the old men in each family also became acquaintances. They would go fishing together, play Go, and so on.
Finally, Tang Yuhang also couldn’t help from asking, “So between you two, who is exactly the true boss?”
Zhang Gushen touched the tip of his nose and answered, “Xiao Liang.”
Tang Yuhang patted his shoulder lightly as if feeling relieved on behalf of the other party. “Big brother, you have made the right decision. It’s better not to provoke that little ancestor.”
…
That night before going to bed, Tang Yuliang’s communicator that had never been used for a long time received a message from Jia Mu.
Mu: [Brother Liang, from tomorrow on, all the four departments will have four months of vacation. The school lets the fourth-year students prepare for the graduation exam, and Minshang also needs to prepare for the Military Competition that will be held next week. Also, don’t forget to come to school tomorrow, on the last day before the vacation, all the fourth-year students in the Military Departments and the Medical Department will be visiting the ancient residences that were left by the royal families in each dynasty.]
TYL: [What about the other two departments?
Mu: [They will be visiting the day after tomorrow.]
TYL: [So the competition will be held next week?]
Mu: [Yes, are you interested in joining?]
TYL: [What about you? Are you joining?]
Mu: [Ahaha, Xiao Qing, Brother Min, Brother Hong and I, will pass, we are going on a trip.]
Tang Yuliang wasn’t surprised at all when he saw this. Jia Mu and Liu Qing were both the sons of his father’s subordinates, they had been accompanying him since they were young, and seeing that they had found themselves a good partner. Tang Yuliang was also happy for them, as for why they didn’t take the competition seriously as he did, it was because they weren’t interested in joining the Military at all, and Tang Yuliang would not force them either.
TYL: [Then have a good trip.]
After that, Tang Yuliang placed the communicator on the nightstand, then a robotic arm holding a glass of warm milk moved over, passing the glass to Tang Yuliang. Ju Hua’s voice could be heard at this time as she flew to Tang Yuliang’s left-hand side. “Since you are letting me out again, this will be my duty from now on.”
“En.” Tang Yuliang responded in a low voice before passing the glass to the robotic arm, and Ju Hua controlled the robotic arm to carry the glass back to the kitchen on the ground floor.
Tang Yuliang lay on the bed, pulling the quilt to cover his body. Seeing that her master was sleeping, Ju Hua stood still on the nightstand, and the power in her body gradually went off, her bright eyes also turned dim as she closed her metal eyelids.
Frost had already gone back into Tang Yuliang’s spiritual domain, hence only he was a living person in the room. That night, Tang Yuliang had a dream.
…
“Brother, if one day I became blind, what would you do?”
“I will be your eyes.”
“Then what if I became a disabled person in a wheelchair?”
“I’ll be your legs.”
“What if someone wants to kill me…”
“A-Liang, no matter what happened, just remember that I’ll always be by your side, and be your only general, I’ll protect you with all my life.”
