Chapter 246, Part 2
"What?" Ling Cen couldn't remember for a while, and asked in doubt.
"It's the one you gave me." Lu Xiao said gently.
Ling Cen's memory flashed back in an instant. He still remembered the day when he was locked up at home and was about to leave Su Yuexing. He looked through the window and saw a large field of violet flowers outside his window, which was still the same as he remembered.
This kind of flower is everywhere, it is inconspicuous, but it has accompanied him to grow up since he was a child, and it is his most magnificent and beautiful dream.
On the way to leave Su Yuexing, he carefully selected for a long time by the roadside, picked the one with the most stretched petals, and brought it to his lover.
"You still remember." Ling Cen lowered his head slightly, with a touch of emotion in his voice.
"Of course." Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows. How dare he forget that at that time he felt that the flower was very similar to Ling Cen, and it was given by his partner himself. Whether Cen would be selfish, he hesitated for a long time.
Fortunately, Ling Cen did not give up on him.
They came together anyway, and Lu Xiao was full of gratitude in his heart. That ordinary little flower, that purple violet flower blooming with tiny purple petals, was the thread that connected them together.
"I'll take you to find flowers." Ling Cen took the initiative to hold Lu Xiao's big hand and lead him away from the ship's side.
Suyuexing is located in the former border, the folk customs are rough, and the infrastructure development is relatively backward. All you can see are old small buildings. A few patches of mottled paint.
The wind and sand season has just passed, and occasionally some weaker storms will pass by, and the faces of passers-by are numb to the weather.
It's really not the water and soil for a party to support people.
Lu Xiao has been fighting all the year round, and he has seen more severe and backward places than this, those planets where food and water sources are not clean, but he still couldn't hide the shock in his eyes. What shocked him was not the scarcity here, but...
"What's wrong?" Ling Cen asked softly.
"No..." Lu Xiao wanted to deny it, but he changed his mind, not wanting to deceive his Omega, and said sincerely, "I just didn't expect that you lived here before."
His partner has a noble temperament, and his haughty appearance is untainted...not to mention the wind and sand. Even her body is fair and smooth, like the finest mutton fat jade.
He couldn't imagine how Ling Cen lived here, and he couldn't find any trace of it.
Ling Cen smiled and nodded without hesitation, and admitted frankly: "This is my hometown, where I grew up."
Lu Xiao paused and stared at Ling Cen who was smiling in front of him. At this moment, he felt in a trance that his Omega was like a blooming wild sea buckthorn growing from the long yellow sand and saline-alkali soil, sticking out its head unyieldingly. Come, carry the wind and sand and dryness, and walk out of here.
He could imagine how much effort Ling Cen had wasted.
Ling Cen is more fresh and full of vitality than the purple violets he once gave him. It is not accidental that he fell in love with his Omega. It is these qualities in Ling Cen that attract him.
He stayed in his study, and the purple violet that he met every day was actually just an incarnation of his partner.
It's not so much that he likes Corydalis, it's better to say that it exudes something similar to Ling Cen.
"You are better than Corydalis." Lu Xiao said with emotion.
Ling Cen's smile became more genuine. Thinking of the way he often saw Lu Xiao smiling at the purple violets in the vacuum box at the door of his study, he felt a sense of pride in his revenge, and laughed, "Brother Lu, you Don't you like that flower the most?"
"Now say hello to me." Lu Xiao has a steady personality and doesn't have any other ideas. Let alone jun/alphas, even if there are Omegas who express their love for him in a place with a job, he will honestly refuse.
It's been a long time since he had no rival in love. Because of boredom, even a flower is in his "jealousy" notebook.
Lu Xiao was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "How can flowers compare to you."
Ling Cen didn't press any more, and with a smile on his lips, he said in a low voice, "Let's go, let's take a stroll."
They were in high spirits, Lu Xiao put on the mask, Ling Cen put on the simulator for himself, the two rented an ordinary small hover car and drove slowly along the first track of Suyue Star like ordinary couples on vacation .
"So many..." Looking around, the roadside was full of the purple violets that Ling Cen had given him, and Lu Xiao couldn't help being speechless.
"You drive towards the river, there are more places there." Seeing the disbelief in Lu Xiao's eyes, Ling Cen even laughed so hard that he planned the route on the suspension vehicle's on-board device and asked Lu Xiao to drive to the place where the river converges. .
"Be careful." Ling Cen almost sprained his ankle when he got out of the car, Lu Xiao hurried over to support Ling Cen.
"It's okay." Ling Cen moved a few times by himself, feeling that he didn't hurt his joints, and laughed at himself: "I get hurt every time I'm on Suyuexing. This place doesn't get along with me." But when Lu Xiao was planning a vacation, he still put Su Yuexing was included.
"Let's find a place to sit." Lu Xiao knew that he was not injured by the way he turned his ankle, but he was still a little worried in his heart, so he suggested.
Ling Cen knew that Lu Xiao really cared about him, but it sounded clumsy and straightforward. He smiled slightly, looked around, pointed to the Ferris wheel not far away, and said, "There, I think it takes more than 20 minutes to go around."
"It's Su Yuexing's landmark building." It was also a luxury that he could not have dreamed of when he was young, Ling Cen secretly thought in his heart.
This kind of fun, even if the family does not lack star coins, it has never been his turn. How could the two brothers Ling Siye and Ling Sicheng let him have this opportunity.
Lu Xiao didn't know why, so he nodded honestly and helped Ling Cen go to the front to buy a ticket.
Suyuexing's equipment is outdated, and tickets are still being sold manually.
"How much?" Ling Cen stood on one side and leaned against the iron railing separating the tourists, and asked with a smile when he saw Lu Xiao return.
"One piece of fifty star coins."
Ling Cen paused, then smiled and shook his head slowly. The play items that children longed for in the past have become so easily available.
"Let's go, let's go up." Ling Cen restrained his smile, and offered to let Lu Xiao hold his hand.
The metal door lock squeaked twice, the indoor air-conditioning system was automatically turned on, and the small box led them up slowly.
The slight swaying range reminded Ling Cen of something...
Ling Cen pursed the corners of his lips, got up and sat down beside Lu Xiao who was originally opposite him.
Lu Xiao didn't understand why he instinctively pulled him into his arms, Ling Cen didn't resist, and lowered his eyes slightly, his eyelashes like crow feathers and butterfly wings trembled twice as if on the stamens, and quietly stopped in Lu Xiao's arms .
"So clingy today..." Lu Xiao was amused at first, and then asked concerned: "Is the injured ankle hurting?"
"No." Ling Cen shook his head slowly. The ferris wheel box was still swaying gently in the breeze, rising higher and higher, and the people on the ground gradually turned into gravel.
Lu Xiao only thought that he was afraid. On the one hand, he patted Ling Cen's back gently with his hand to comfort Ling Cen. On the other hand, he turned his head slightly and looked out the window.
"It's full of violets outside." Lu Xiao was fascinated by the scenery in front of him, and the riverside under his feet was full of violets in bloom.
"Yeah." Ling Cen nodded, hearing Lu Xiao's steady voice as always, he felt a lot better.
When the box was shaking slightly just now, he thought of the moment when Lu Xiao took him out of the spaceship, the day when they fell from the sky and Lu Xiao gave his life to protect him.
Ling Cen put his arms around Lu Xiao's neck, hugged him tightly, and closed his eyes slightly, lost in memory. That day was the day when he changed his direction.
Being able to return to Lu Xiao's arms was the best thing in his life.
Ling Cen's lips could not help but raise a faint smile.
"We should go down." Lu Xiao reminded softly.
Ling Cen responded in a low voice and was about to get out of his arms. Lu Xiao held him down with one hand, and put his other hand on Ling Cen's ankle. He groped carefully at the joints twice, and after confirming that everything was fine, he carefully put Ling Cen down. .
Ling Cen was very helpful, but he still said angrily: "Everyone said it's all right."
"En." Lu Xiao felt relieved after confirming it himself.
Because of Ling Cen's sprain, Lu Xiao deliberately drove the hover car over from the parking lot and parked it by the side of the square.
After Ling Cen got into the car, he said, "Where else do you want to go?"
Ling Cen pondered for a moment and smiled, "Just follow me." He knew Su Yuexing much better than Lu Xiao.
Soothing music was played in the suspension car. It left the relatively flat main road, turned twice, and drove for more than 20 minutes. It passed through a small birch forest before stopping.
Lu Xiao observed for a while before confirming that this should be a reservoir, but it has been transformed into a small lakeside by the natural environment after years of disrepair.
The sun shines through the birch branches and leaves, and the warm pieces of gold are scattered on the surface of the lake with silver scales, reflecting among the clumps of moist water plants.
"...It's quite wild." Lu Xiao carefully sprayed Ling Cen with mosquito repellant twice before letting him out of the car.
Ling Cen stood by the lake, turned his head and smiled lightly at Lu Xiao who followed him here: "It wasn't like this before."
"There are not so many weeds." Although it was deserted at that time, it could still be used.
"Welcome to my secret garden." Ling Cen bowed slightly to Lu Xiao, and performed a gentleman's salute that can only be seen in dramas.
Lu Xiao was startled for a moment, then realized in an instant, and suddenly realized: "This is the reservoir you mentioned."
"Yes." Ling Cen picked up a palm-sized green leaf that had just fallen from the ground, held the handle, and gently turned it with thumbs and index fingers together. He leaned sideways on a thick birch by the lake and said softly.
"When I was young, I often hid here to swim." Ling Cen whispered with emotion.
At that time, his mother had already passed away, and Li Ting entered the house with Ling Siye, who was already able to leave, and Ling Sicheng and Ling Yao soon... They belonged to the same family, and she was just an outsider, with neither inheritance rights nor relatives to help.
Powerless and powerless, he often set off from Ling's house and rode an old bicycle to spend the day here. Li Ting was happy to let him come here.
He would imagine that his mother was also in the woods.
Ling Cen stood under the tree in a daze.
The first thing Lu Xiao thought of was Ling Cen's superb swimming skills in the infinity pool when he mentioned this place.
...Ling Cen noticed the change in Lu Xiao, and was speechless for a while.
"What are you thinking?" Ling Cen said half shyly and half angrily.
Lu Xiao was also a little ashamed, leaned over and said in a low voice, "Don't be angry."
Ling Cen's thoughts were distracted by him, and he couldn't go back to the state of self-pity, and was made to laugh out loud by his sincere apology.
Speaking of the bitter past, it is indeed like a joke in front of them now, Ling Cen shook his head with a smile, and said in a low voice, "Thank you."
"Huh?" Lu Xiao tilted his head in doubt.
"I won't be sad anymore when I think of this." Ling Cen said with a bright smile, he would only remember his lover's reaction here.
Lu Xiao's face was flushed by his laughter. He couldn't control his thoughts for a while...
Ling Cen held his big hand with a smile and led him around the lake.
In the past, the reservoir has been turned into a lake, which does not occupy a large area. The two of them walked very slowly and almost finished the tour.
"I feel much more at ease with Alan now." Lu Xiao said suddenly.
"Is it sweet?" Ling Cen stepped down and paused before opening his mouth tentatively.
Lu Xiao nodded, and with his arms around his partner, he walked through the birch forest with him. The sparse shadows slanted slightly, and the light and shadows fell on them in changing ways.
Lu Xiao said frankly: "Sometimes I think your personality is too soft. I hope that Tiantian will be like you when she grows up... and I am worried that he will be too like you." As soon as he opened his mouth, Lu Xiao didn't know how to continue. Like accusing Ling Cen.
The breeze blew slowly, picking up the fragrance of grass and trees. Ling Cen continued for him: "You are worried that he, like me, trusts his Alpha too much."
Lu Xiao nodded slowly. He was really worried. Raising an Omega child is more than a hundred times more effortful than raising an Alpha. Now he is starting to have trouble sleeping and eating.
The Alpha that Tiantian likes in the future, what should I do if I can't bear his liking?
It's not that he is boasting, but that people's hearts are unpredictable. He is worried that the Alpha Tiantian meets will not be like him, but will hurt Tiantian.
Lu Xiao tightened his fingertips slightly, hugged the warm body in his arms, and said in a low voice, "I'm not worried anymore."
"If he is really like you, he will have your persistent temper, and you can get out of here."
"He can do it too." Lu Xiao solemnly said, looking up at the crystal-clear gemstones in front of him, with little leaves floating on the surface of the lake.
"Besides, with Tiantian and us watching over him, and with us protecting him, he won't suffer." Ling Cen added softly.
Lu Xiao nodded, that's what he meant too.
Lu Xiao was behind Ling Cen, and hugged him quietly for a moment. The Federation was vast, and he was so lucky to meet an Omega who was in harmony with him in the crowd.
The sun was gradually slanting, and the two of them drove the suspension car that was rented from the car rental office, whistling like a dilapidated bellows, looking for a place to eat.
Ling Cen frowned listening to the sound of the hover car.
Lu Xiao explained in a low voice: "There is something wrong with the engine."
"Why didn't you check the car before renting it?" Ling Cen leaned on the car seat, complaining to Lu Xiao with a dissatisfied profile.
Lu Xiao said injustice: "The other cars are not as good as this one."
Well, Ling Cen was helpless, Lu Xiao slowed down the car to give the engine time to run, and the two of them moved forward slowly, but it was quiet.
Lu Xiao was not used to such a quiet environment, and said with emotion, "I don't know what Lu Yue is doing now." If Xiao was by their side and went on vacation with them, he would be pestering Ling Cen, acting like a baby and howling like a wolf. Stop, he even missed Xiao Xiao a little bit.
"Now?" Ling Cen raised his wrist, making a gesture to look at the time displayed on the terminal on his wrist, and replied solemnly: "Honey! He should be tearing down the house."
"Mom is supervising his work."
"Haha." Lu Xiao and Ling Cen looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
It feels good when I don't have to worry about tearing down a house.
After driving for a while, leaving the scenery on both sides behind, the suspension vehicle whimpered twice, and finally stopped moving.
Ling Cen raised his eyebrows helplessly: "What should I do..." Ask maintenance to pull him away.
"I'll see if it can be repaired first." Lu Xiao got out of the car and took out the warning sign and maintenance toolbox from the trunk, looked around, and arranged in a low voice: "You stand under the shade of the tree."
The suspension car broke down in the middle of the road, without a refrigeration system, and it would soon be roasted like squid on an iron plate.
Ling Cen insisted on refusing, and helped Lu Xiao pass the tools by his side.
Lu Xiao checked briefly, and felt relieved. It wasn't an overall problem. After reconnecting the line, he could still drive for dozens of kilometers.
"Take off the mask." Ling Cen helped Lu Xiao take off the mask with his right hand that was not stained with dust, and he also took off the simulator with one hand and threw it aside.
the weather is too hot.
"Give me the monkey wrench." Lu Xiao looked sideways at Ling Cen's white skin showing a blush from the heat, and beads of sweat oozing from his temples, frowning and speeding up his movements.
A hovering vehicle saw the warning sign and drove quickly around them from behind. Ling Cen inadvertently made brief eye contact with the woman inside, and couldn't help being slightly startled, feeling vaguely familiar.
Almost at the same time, Lu Xiao said soothingly: "Okay." The hover car restarted.
Ling Cen put the matter behind him, got into the suspension vehicle and turned on the refrigeration system.
Lu Xiao looked at him leaning against the air outlet in the heat, and said apologetically, "I should drive the hover car brought by the spaceship."
Ling Cen smiled and said, "Let's keep a low profile."
Lu Xiao nodded slightly, and blocked him with one hand, keeping him away from the cold air and driving away from here.
What they didn't know was that the hover car that just passed by turned around and came back not long after, and the female Alpha in a smart skirt got out of the car and looked for them.
She is from the Freed family, and it was their family that drove the Ling family out of Suyuexing. Alpha searched around to no avail, shook his head and got into the car.
Closing her eyes, her fingertips tapped lightly on the armrest, and at a glance, she felt that the person who helped hand over the tools to repair the car was very similar to that Omega of the Ling family, Ling Cen.
If she remembers correctly, Ling Cen's partner is a federal general, someone that the Fried family will never be able to offend.
They will repair the car on the side of the road?
Fried recalled carefully to make sure that his memory was correct.
If she reads correctly... what are they doing here?
Could it be that he wanted to help Ling Ping, who had fled to nowhere for a long time, find Yi Er? Didn't it mean that the relationship between Ling Cen and his father was not good? As soon as Alpha thought of this possibility, he immediately ordered the driver to go to his father's house.
This kind of big man who can crush them to death with one finger, even if the possibility is unlikely, they must think carefully.
The two who sat down to have lunch not far away did not realize that their appearance made Su Yuexing's most prestigious Fried family nervous for a long time...
Su Yuexing stayed for a short time, but Lu Xiao was still satisfied. The purple violets he selected were transplanted into simple flower pots. After passing the biological inspection, these purple violets could go back to Emperor Star with them and bloom in the lakeside of Lingfeng Garden. put.
Seeing Lu Xiao's serious attitude, Ling Cen couldn't help laughing: "Honey, these flowers live very well...you just need to shovel and bring some soil to live." Don't be so careful.
They only survive on Suyue, and not elsewhere because the purple violets are not beautiful and have no medicinal value. Of course, no one thought of taking them away.
Lu Xiao took the flowers to the hotel room, and said with satisfaction: "When we move, bring some gardeners over there. They take care of them very well...should be able to take care of them too."
"Listen to you..." As long as you are happy. The corners of Ling Cen's lips twitched slightly, as if he could see the status of the purple violet in Lu Xiao's heart, and he stopped saying that the purple violet was a wild flower that didn't need to be taken care of.
The hotel they stayed in was only one block away from the old house of the Ling family. From the balcony of their room, they could see a corner of the Ling family, but Ling Cen was not at all curious.
Changed into loose clothes, and leaned in Lu Xiao's arms to watch boring TV dramas with him. After an episode was broadcast, Ling Cen whispered when there was an advertisement: "Husband, do you think the old house of the Ling family has been sold?"
At that time, it should have been transferred to the bank, but the old house is located in a very good location and occupies a large area. It is a considerable amount of money. I don't know who will buy it.
The author has something to say: Mr. Lu: Be careful what you put in the study... Su Yuexing is everywhere.
