“Well…”
Zhou Mian slowly opened his eyes.
“A-mian.”
It was Cecil’s face that still caught his eye.
“Look…this is the father who gave birth to you. Dad is awake. Isn’t he beautiful?”
Cecil held the child and showed it to Zhou Mian.
Zhou Mian blinked, and his consciousness gradually became clearer.
“A-mian.” Cecil handed the child to the nanny, while he hugged Zhou Mian, helped him sit up, and handed him warm water.
“Does it still hurt? Is there any discomfort?” The pain was natural, but he felt much more relaxed than before. Zhou Mian leaned against Cecil and whispered: “I’m fine, I want to see…”
He took the child from the nanny. A newborn baby is naturally not good-looking, but Zhou Mian is still full of joy and love.
“The eyes look like yours.” Zhou Mian thought to himself. The baby’s eyes were the same as Cecil’s, and the outline was also similar to Cecil’s. He couldn’t help but mutter: “He looks like a little guy who is not easy to mess with.”
“Of course, that’s not the case either. Look whose child it is.” Cecil gently tapped the baby’s forehead, his tone full of pride and joy.
“But… giving birth is hard.” Cecil sighed, kissed Zhou Mian’s ear, and said, “Baby, just this time, we will give birth once, not next time.”
Zhou Mian suddenly remembered Ellen’s startling words that he had heard in a blur.
Zhou Mian smiled and said, “Next time it’s your turn.”
Cecil froze and looked at Zhou Mian with wide eyes.
What……?
Cecil’s mouth twitched and said, “Oh, A-Mian knows how to think.”
Zhou Mian leaned against Cecil closed his eyes and said, “What? Don’t you want to?”
“Okay, okay, I’ll give birth.” Cecil didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, so he got up and pulled out the quilt and pillow for Zhou Mian and said, “Okay, the child has seen you too. You can continue to rest.”
“I’m fine.” Zhou Mian’s pale face was getting better.
“That won’t work. The doctor said you have to stay here for three months without being able to move.” Cecil was so angry that he hugged his chest and said, “Don’t even think about running around and working around.”
“I’ll go to Gu Xingzhi to discuss the next formation first. I’ll be back in half an hour.”
Cecil stood up, patted Zhou Mian’s hand, and said, “Wait until I come back.”
“Okay.”
Zhou Mian was looking at Cecil’s leaving figure as he closed the door. He couldn’t help but curl his lips.
He came back…
Cecil, he managed to come back… for him.
Who is Cecil? He is a face-loving, arrogant, and narcissistic person. But when the door opened, what Zhou Mian saw was not a high-spirited general, but an embarrassed husband and father.
Zhou Mian looked at the white ceiling in a trance.
This was the first time since he was a kid that someone was so interested in him.
In Zhou Mian’s current memory, Cecil was the only one in the world who was so kind to him. For the first time, someone was afraid that he would get hurt and treated him as a fragile thing and held him in the palm of his hand to protect him.
If you can do this for the rest of your life… Zhou Mian smiled, that would be good. He thought about it and fell asleep with a smile on his face.
On the other side, Gu Xingzhi and Cecil chatted for a few words. After setting the time for the formal meeting, Gu Xingzhi went inside the main battleship.
Gu Xingzhi didn’t look good.
“Ellen.”
Ellen was resting in the room at the moment. After all, he was exhausted after spending the whole night with Zhou Mian.
After being awakened by a knock on the door, Aeron stood up in a daze and shouted towards the door with a bit of anger: “Who is it?”
“…”
But there was silence outside the door.
Ellen shook his head, sat on the bed, yawned, rubbed his eyes, and said, “Who? Come back later if you have nothing to do!”
Ellen had always been very angry when he got up. After coming here, he improved a lot because of his busy work, but he is not in a good mood to be woken up suddenly.
‘Click.’
Ellen was stunned.
The door was opened, and Gu Xingzhi stood aside expressionlessly, looking directly at Ellen.
“You? Major General Gu?” Ellen sneered: “What kind of wind brings our noble Major General here?”
Gu Xingzhi ignored Ellen’s sharp tone, just stepped forward and stood in front of Elun and said every word Said: “Ellen, the man who… was intimate with you that day was not a kind person.”
“Huh?” Ellen tilted her head.
“The spies reported that although the details about him are not yet known, what is certain is that he is the lover of the third prince of the Zerg tribe!” Gu Xingzhi’s eyes seemed to be suppressing some emotion, or the prelude to a violent storm.
Gu Xingzhi suppressed his anger and said sternly: “Don’t interact with him! He has a purpose for approaching you! He already has a lover, and he is from the Zerg tribe.”
Ellen rolled his eyes. He responded in a natural tone: “Then what does this have to do with you?”
“You…!” Gu Xingzhi’s chest heaved violently, and he looked at the slender man in front of him and shouted: “Ellen! If you want to make me angry on purpose, then No need to ruin yourself like this! You should wake up, you must not interact with that person!”
‘Touch——!’
Gu Xingzhi leaned over, reached out, and pressed hard on the wall behind Ellen, locking him between the wall and his chest.
Ellen looked up and met Gu Xingzhi’s blazing eyes blankly.

If it is for you, I will. Is there anything I dare not do…!
Ellen’s face became increasingly ugly and he said, “If you insist on doing this, then shut it down.”
Gu Xingzhi: “…”
Huh…?
Ellen opened his arms and said, “Come on! The kind that you can carry with you 24 hours a day!”
Gu Xingzhi: “…”
Gu Xingzhi was confused and looked at Ellen like a fool.
“Pfttt……”
I don’t know how long it took before Ellen turned his head and chuckled.
That laughter as clear as a silver bell broke the stiffness of the atmosphere, and Gu Xingzhi stared at him.
“Why are you laughing?”
“I…hahaha…” Ellen couldn’t hold it back any longer, laughing so hard that he was out of breath, and said, “I said Major General Gu, what’s wrong with your brain? Why have you become so stupid? Ah! Can Cecil and Zhou Mian just let me go and let me hang out with the Zerg people? You want to lock me up, you big devil, are you sick??”
Gu Xing was stunned.
“Hahahahaha…”
“That person is Wang Zun! Wang Zun! You don’t know about the encounter between the Third Prince and us on the Wild Star and the peace agreement, right?”
Gu Xingzhi was suddenly startled, as if waking up from a dream.
“Hahahaha! What I didn’t expect was that you were deceived to this day!” Ellen smiled arrogantly, with a flying look, raised eyebrows, and a few tears in the corners of his eyes.
Gu Xingzhi was fascinated.
“Oh my god… look at how stupid you are to jump over the wall, aren’t you? I really… um…”
“Um… you…!”
Ellen’s eyes widened.
He never expected that this guy Gu Xingzhi… would actually kiss him.
“Are you…are you crazy?!”
“You are the one who is crazy, you fool…” Gu Xingzhi shook his head.
He didn’t expect that this kid, Ellen, would actually lie to him like this.
“Idiot.”
Gu Xingzhi put one hand around his waist and the other hand pressed the back of Ellen’s head to make him raise his head and kiss him. The rough movements were like punishment, but also like a beast that had been suppressed for a long time and finally couldn’t help expose his greedy nature.
“Well…”
Ellen kept kicking his legs and beating Gu Xingzhi with both hands. However, the difference in force between the little prince and Major General Gu was so great that it did not help at all except making the atmosphere more chaotic and ambiguous.
Gu Xingzhi looked at Ellen, whose face was red and disheveled due to struggle and anxiety, and felt his mouth and tongue were dry.
“Ellen… stop moving…”
“Fuck you! Gu Xingzhi, I will fight with you!”
Then Ellen was pushed down by Gu Xingzhi and pushed to the bed, fighting fiercely to stand up.
…
So for the next three months, Cecil and Gu Xingzhi held the beauty in their arms while fighting. Although it was hard, their life was fulfilling.
Gu Xingzhi and Ellen fought every day as if they were going to blow up the main battleship. However, even so, Ellen still manages the plant factory in an orderly manner, which is of great help to Zhou, who is unable to go out and is a natural workaholic. Zhou Mian’s eyes turned red with envy.
During this period, not only Cecil was on horseback, but the marshal and his wife and the king’s wife came to visit Zhou Mian again and again, bringing a lot of high-quality supplements and constantly telling the kitchen to take good care of Zhou Mian’s diet and daily life.
Fortunately, Zhou Mian himself is not a fun-loving or noisy person. He reads books and takes a nap. In addition, Cecil is worried that Zhou Mian is bored and is always by his side. Three months have passed like this.
Three months later, Caledo, the second prince of the Zerg clan, led his troops and attacked the federal capital with all his strength. They invaded through the incision of the bridge and the force was overwhelming!
“In this situation, we can’t tell who has the upper hand, but if you look at the terrain, it’s easier to attack than to defend.” In the remote control room of the main battleship, several people looked at the red dots representing the number of enemies on the black screen in front of them. Gu Xing Zhi analyzed: “In the first battle, we did not expect that the Zerg would attack from the bridge, and we missed the best opportunity to counterattack. But now our soldiers and horses, together with the Glacier Army, have defended the bridge layer by layer, and the Zerg will attack if they want to attack.” They have to go through a fierce battle, so they dare not act rashly.”
Only Cecil, Gu Xingzhi, and a few federal officers were in the remote control room, but Zhou Mian was not there.
Now Zhou Mian is in the main battleship of the Glacier Army, and the two are temporarily separated.
“They don’t dare to act rashly, and neither do we.” Cecil shook his head and smiled: “The bridge is surrounded by a flame space that ordinary people cannot pass through. The bridge is the only thing that connects the glacier and the Federation.” However, humans cannot pass, But the high-level warriors of the tribe can. They are insects, not fragile human flesh. They can withstand the high temperature and pressure of that space.
It is said that the Zerg sent countless warrior teams to search the space, and then found a passage that was spared from high pressure and high temperature, allowing the Zerg army to directly enter the bridge, and the bridge was the most vulnerable point in the federal defense line.
The most troublesome thing is that there is an unprotected section in the middle of the passage, which is still exposed to high temperature and pressure. However, such a distance is fatal to ordinary humans, but it is harmless to the Zerg.
This is exactly the problem the federal army faces today.
‘Knock knock.’
Cecil crossed his hands over his chest and looked at the black screen, without looking back: “Come in.”
“Cecil.”
Cecil was stunned and turned around to see Zhou Mian in a white military uniform appearing at the door.
“Admiral Zhou.” The others bowed to Zhou Mian.
Cecil smiled, stepped forward stopped Zhou Mian’s shoulder, and said, “How is it over there on the glacier?”
“As usual, the formation has been arranged. If the Zerg attack the bridge, we will cooperate with the federal army, both defensive and offensive.” Zhou Mian said calmly: “But I think we shouldn’t just sit back and wait for the Zerg to attack. We should take the initiative to kill him by surprise.”
“Ah…?” One of the officers frowned and said, “This… is not the case. OK.”
Several other officers also spoke out against it, while Gu Xingzhi lowered his head in thought, assessing the chance of winning this plan.
“Hahahaha…”
Cecil suddenly laughed.
“Sure enough, you are my baby.” Cecil did not shy away from others. He directly put his arm around Zhou Mian’s waist and said with a smile, “It’s exactly what I thought.”
“Admiral Cecil, this…” the officer said seriously, “Although what Admiral Zhou said is reasonable, the bridge is fragile. Although the Zerg troops are strong, if we don’t spread our forces and defend the bridge with all our strength, there will be no problem.”
Zhou Mian asked in a calm tone: “Then why do we have to defend the bridge?
“What?” The officer was stunned.
Ah…
Zhou Mian glanced at Cecil, with a smile in his eyes, and said: “The bridge is destroyed and can be rebuilt. The purpose of its existence is to connect the Federation and Glacier. It is a form, but without it, the Federation and Glacier We will still be closely connected. The important thing…is the country and the people.”
Cecil paused and nodded.
Cecil affectionately slid Zhou Mian down to his cheek and said: “A-Mian is right, the Zerg know that the bridge is our weakness, but if we don’t regard it as our weakness, then it is not. We can’t be afraid already.”
Cecil pulled Zhou Mian and everyone around the round table. Cecil said, “What I have been thinking about just now is where to attack the Zerg.” Cecil pointed to a place on the map and said, “Let’s take a detour to the rear, from here, rush in from the end of the Zerg formation.”
Although those officers had concerns, they were still sitting in this position. They were not cowards who couldn’t afford to gamble or were timid, they were just more cautious and serious now. They discussed attack matters and countermeasures with Cecil and Zhou Mian.
After discussing for a full half day, the meeting was ended.
“Are you tired?” Cecil pulled Zhou Mian out of the remote control room and went to a small cubicle to rest. He rubbed the top of Zhou Mian’s hair and said, “Would you like to take a nap?”
“No, I’m in good spirits. Zhou Mian also asked: “Where is the little lion?”
“The nanny has taken him and Xiao Le to sleep together.”
“Okay.”
The two leaned against each other, looking at the starry sky outside the window, and suddenly felt a little emotional. Back then, the two of them were opposites on the battlefield, each commanding their armies to fight. Who would have thought that now they are an alliance, fighting side by side?
They even have children.
A child who inherited both Glacier and the Federation Admirals genes.
“Cecil…” Zhou Mian rested his head on Cecil’s shoulder and asked in a normal conversation: “You were planning to seize the opportunity and attack the Zerg from the beginning, right? Why didn’t you tell me?”
Zhou Mian thought Cecil had some concerns. Could it be that… Cecil is reluctant to destroy the bridge.
Zhou Mian felt that Cecil was not such a petty person, so how could the majestic federal admiral not let go of this, Cecil’s attitude was indeed not that firm.
“You’re right…” Cecil sighed and said, “I’m reluctant to let go. How should I put it…”
Zhou Mian looked up at Cecil.
Cecil’s eyes were obscure and he said, “The bridge means a lot to me.”
“Oh…”
“A-Mian, let me kiss you.”
“Ah…?”
Zhou Mian blinked, not understanding why the topic suddenly changed.
“A-mian.” Cecil put his arm around Zhou Mian’s waist, smiled, and bowed his head slightly.
Zhou Mian paused for a moment, then raised his head obediently and placed his lips on his.
The two pairs of lips were pressed together, without any hint of lust, only lingering tenderness.
“A-Mian…” Cecil felt a little hot and reached out to lift Zhou Mian’s clothes. However, Zhou Mian was shocked by a sharp alarm sound. He pushed Cecil away and stood up and said, “Come on. Got it!”
‘Ding–ding–’
“The Zerg are attacking from the S4 direction! Repeat, the Zerg are attacking from the S4 direction!”
Zhou Mian said: “There is no time, I will lead people to outflank from behind, and you will fight from the front. Zhou Mian held Cecil’s hand tightly and said, “Leave the rear to me.”
“Okay!”
“A-Mian…!” Cecil smiled and said, “Be careful with everything.”
“Okay.”
Boom——
The Zerg concentrated fire on the bridge, while Cecil led the army to defend the bridge and responded with artillery fire. For a time, half of the sky was illuminated red.
The second prince Caledo… Cecil quickly found the location of the main battleship where Caledo was located.
Cecil curled his lips slightly.
To shoot a man, shoot a horse first; to capture a thief, capture the king first. Cecil always liked to kill enemy soldiers.
“Team of the Twelfth Army, follow me!” Cecil left the main battleship and jumped into his mecha: “Attack the enemy main battleship with me!”
“ATTACK–!”
On the other end, Zhou Mian was with The Glacier Army. He went around to the rear of the Zerg, found the loophole, and charged in at the weakest point in the formation’s defense.
“ATTACK——!”
“ATTACK——!”
“ATTACK————”
The sound of killing was loud.
“A-Mian.”
At this moment, Zhou Mian heard a voice coming from the mecha’s broadcast system.
This is…
Zhou Mian’s eyes narrowed.
Not far away was a red mecha. Chi Ying was sitting inside, looking at Zhou Mian with raised eyebrows and a smile.
“You’re not dead yet.” Zhou Mian said with a smile, “You’re so brave, you dare to come here in a mecha and run wild.”
“A-Mian…”
Chi Ying called Zhou Mian, and this call was full of excitement. The affection and lingering feelings send chills down the spine.
“How could I be afraid? When I think of you, I am not afraid of anything.” The tone was dubious.
But now Zhou Mian will no longer be afraid or affected by Chi Ying’s attitude.
Zhou Mian held the operating pole of the mecha, took a deep breath, and then… controlled the mecha to rush toward Chi Ying!
Chi Ying grinned and fought with Zhou Mian. The two large mechas collided, and then stabbed each other with swords, vowing to kill each other with artillery fire.
‘Stab—!’
Zhou Mian’s sword pierced into Chi Ying’s mecha, cutting off one of its arms, and one of Zhou Mian’s gun ports was also shot down by Chi Ying.
Just when Zhou Mian found an opening and opened fire at the mecha’s cockpit, Chi Ying followed Zhou Mian’s example of killing him before. He decisively jumped out of the mecha and pounced on Zhou Mian’s body, breaking the mirror and fighting with Zhou Mian hand to hand.
“A-Mian, you can’t beat me in hand-to-hand combat.” Chi Ying said with a smile, “Don’t forget, I taught you half of your fighting skills on the pirate ship.”
Zhou Mian punched Chi Ying’s vital part, and Chi Ying Easily dodged.
“You are wrong.”
Chi Ying was stunned.
The next moment, Zhou Mian saw Zhou Mian’s other hand, the hand that was ignored and not restrained by Chi Ying, take out the Mosaic gun and shoot at Chi Ying’s forehead…!
‘bump!’
Like a beast, Chi Ying pounced on Zhou Mian with all his strength, and the bullet hit Chi Ying’s shoulder. At the same time, Chi Ying also pounced on Zhou Mian, and the two of them fell.
The two fell on the roof of a battleship. Zhou Mian looked around and then at the slippery roof.
This one will fall if you’re not careful…!
Zhou Mian’s eyes flashed, and he quickly reacted to avoid Chi Ying’s surprise attack, and the two fought together again.
Chi Ying smiled but opened the terminal.
“Your Highness, it’s me.”
“Please let the B7 battleship go to the passage.”
Zhou Mian’s eyes widened.
Is Chi Ying crazy?
Zhou Mian led the people across the bridge, bypassed the glacier, and quietly outflanked the Zerg from behind. Therefore, they were now in the Glacier Star Territory, a star territory where humans could survive.
But what did Chi Ying just do?
He let the warships driven by the Zerg beneath them rush directly into the high-temperature and high-pressure space where humans could not survive!
“If I can’t subdue you, then we will die together.” Chi Ying raised the dagger with a grim smile and said, “A-Mian, come here.”
Zhou Mian glanced at the distance to the space.
……Time is limited!
Zhou Mian sneered and rushed forward.
He won’t lose!
Zhou Mian jumped on the ground and swept over with a cross leg.
Chi Ying dodged sideways, stabbed Zhou Mian’s waist with the dagger, and said with a smile: “A-Mian, I’m familiar with your ways, this thing can’t be changed.”
‘Slap’
However, before he finished speaking, Chi Ying received a slap on the chest and fell to the ground.
“You are wrong.”
Zhou Mian said calmly: “You only taught me half, but now my fighting skills are all taught to me by Cecil.”
Since the two got married, Zhou Mian has been learning from Cecil.
“You…!” Chi Ying’s eyes widened.
Chi Ying rolled his eyes and said with a smile: “So what? You can’t beat me.”
“That’s because I was afraid of you before.”
But in fact, he had no reason to be afraid of Chi Ying. He has a clear conscience. Zhou Mian smiled, raised the dagger, and stabbed Chi Ying in the heart.
At that moment, Chi Ying’s eyes were filled with silvery blue that spread out in the starry sky.
Gorgeous.
‘Boom -’
The warship entered the passage but was finally captured by the Glacier Army brought by Zhou Mian in front of the unprotected space and stopped.
On the battleship, Zhou Mian’s dagger also pierced Chi Ying’s chest.
Thank You for the new chapter (๑•́ ₃ •̀๑)
Even at the end Chi ying is still Chi ying, I like it
i…don’t know what to feel
