4. Chapter IV
[Chapter 4: Nice to Meet You] It's as if the thunder between the lightning and the fire has hooked the earth
Ye Zhao took a lot of effort to explain to his uncle that his so-called "choice of General Ludwig" was not the kind of choice he wanted to combine with him.
Even so, there was a kind of "I understand" ridicule in Dior's eyes when he looked at him.
Ye Zhao: "......"
knew that his uncle was originally such a character, and he didn't bother too much. Dio was one of the best mechs in the Empire, and he needed his help elsewhere.
"You mean, you want that mech from this auction?"
Looking at Ye Zhao, who took the initiative to find him, Dior frowned, as an expert in mecha research, he naturally knew a little bit about all the mecha-related news in this country. But this time the mecha on the Storia auction center ...... It's just an A-level mecha, maybe it's barely rare in the eyes of others, but he doesn't think it can get into the eyes of Ye Zhao now.
His nephew was not a thing in the pool, this was the conclusion he came to after seeing what Ye Zhao did that day. Not only because of his current terrifying mental power, but also because of his extraordinary self-control ability.
He didn't know that Ye Zhao was just a heart that had been tempered after experiencing countless ups and downs, and for this guide boy who he might have looked down on before, Dior had a sense of awe for no reason.
"It's just an A-rank mech. And...... You are the guide. "Guides can't fly mechs, that's a fact known to all of the stars.
Ye Zhao smiled: "That's not necessarily. β
He didn't explain anything to Dior, and after successfully borrowing a good sum of money, he happily left Dior's laboratory.
"Keep it a secret for me, uncle," he said before leaving, "and I'll come back to you." β
Dior's back suddenly felt cold.
After Ye Zhao returned home, he was stopped by Ye Mingxun as soon as he entered the door.
"Stop." He walked over and lifted the hem of Ye Zhao's clothes that had some stains, "What is this?" You're not going to fight the boys of Vayl again, are you? β
Ye Zhao was very innocent this time: "I swear it's just some mecha-lubricating oil." Afraid that Ye Mingxun wouldn't believe it, he also deliberately added: "At Uncle Dior's, I accidentally got it." β
Ye Mingxun snorted coldly and acquiesced to his statement: "You have been quite close to him recently. β
He glanced at Ye Zhao from head to toe: "Come with me to the study." β
After arriving at the study, Ye Mingxun took out something like an invitation card from the drawer.
"What is this?"
Ye Zhao leaned in to look at it with some curiosity, and before he could see the content clearly, he heard Ye Mingxun sneer: "The royal blind date." β
Ye Zhao: What the hell is ......?
"All the nobles in the entire Emperor Star who have unmarried guides of the right age have received this invitation," Ye Mingxun's face was obviously not very good, "His Majesty the Emperor has spoken, this time he must find a suitable princess for his younger brother." β
Ye Zhao nodded. Indeed, His Royal Highness Ludwig has been the first single king of the empire for many years, and it is normal for His Majesty the Emperor to worry about his life's affairs.
"But what does this have to do with me?"
As a well-known waste wood in the interstellar world, no one would ever think of him before when there was such a thing.
Ye Mingxun exhaled, his eyes were resentful: "Because His Royal Highness Ludwig is too strong, he said that it doesn't matter what kind of guide it is." β
In other words: in his eyes, it's all a burden.
Ye Zhao: "......" is very good, really has personality.
After admiring General Ludwig without logic in his heart, Ye Zhao was stunned: "Can I refuse?" β
Because he had just thought about it carefully, he really didn't have any memories of this blind date.
-- The trend of the world has deviated from that of the previous generation.
Ye Zhao had already prepared for this, after all, he was an "outsider" to the current world.
But why is the first deviation so a headache?
Not surprisingly, his father sued him: "Dreaming." β
The emperor's personal invitation, refusal is equivalent to a slap in the face.
"You clean up yourself, tomorrow the General's Mansion will hold a banquet."
"Tomorrow?!" Ye Zhao was surprised, "I'm not ready yet." β
Ye Mingxun frowned: "What are you going to do as a male guide?" Just ask CassΓ©a to prepare you a proper dress. β
Then he remembered that his son might be too nervous, and patted him on the shoulder soothingly: "Don't care too much, how can the general pay attention to you." β
Ye Zhao: "......" father.
Rao is no matter how difficult Ye Zhao can accept, or as Ye Mingxun said, he has no place to refuse.
The general shouldn't look down on himself, right, he should ...... Right?
He found the idea unconvincing.
He always had a bad premonition.
***
"Who's that?"
"It is said that it is the young master of the Ye family who can't support the wall...... I said, he's embarrassed to come. β
Ye Zhao led Ye Haha to walk in the crowd, trying his best to ignore the comments of those people.
The reason why he had to "lead" was because Ye Haha always racked his brains to drill behind the female spirit body fart-thigh brought by other guides.
For this reason, Ye Zhao even deliberately found a place where no one was there and viciously reprimanded it.
"Silly calf, you remembered for me that you are now a wolf, not a teddy!"
Ye Haha snorted left and right when he heard this, pretending not to understand.
In fact, people used to be wolves! It's just that you're too weak, stupid human!
However, after Ye Zhao's training, Ye Haha was really much more settled. Ye Zhao found a corner in the hall where there were no people, and planned to mix it up so quietly tonight.
He was going to deal with Ludwig, but he didn't want to do it that way.
Although Sentry Guides are all different from ordinary people, most people still believe that Guides are subordinate to Sentinels. asked him Ye Zhao to subordinate to someone, he didn't want to, and he was unwilling.
Even if that person was the hero he had longed for for two lifetimes, he didn't think he needed to be subservient.
Music was already playing on the dance floor, but no one had come down to dance - the protagonist of today's banquet had not yet arrived, and no one had the heart to take the lead.
Plus...... These guides who came today, both men and women, have the same purpose, and it is not easy to expect them to live in harmony, let alone dance together.
The banquet at the general's house was unexpectedly deserted.
Ye Zhao didn't react to this qiΔ, he was trying to secretly take advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention to get the two glazed fruits on the table next to him and stuff them for Ye Haha.
The fruit of this grown-only Confederation planet is so delicious that its annual imports are strictly controlled, so it can only be used in large quantities at royal banquets.
Since Ye Haha entered the door, except for the female's fart-strands, these fruits have been in his eyes.
"You really know how to eat ......," Ye Zhao smiled. Fortunately, those noble young masters and young ladies didn't come to eat today, so they didn't find that most of the fresh fruits at the banquet had disappeared.
I don't know who in the crowd gathered not far away let out an exclamation, and before Ye Zhao could react, he saw a snow-white shadow rushing in front of him, and then his family's spirit body let out a terrible wail.
"Woo woo woo ~ woo woo!"
Ye Zhao felt that he understood-"Damn, don't think about Lao Tzu!" β
He was a little distressed.
I saw that the snow-white cat that ran out of nowhere was holding two forelimbs on Ye Haha's upper body at this time, and the lower half of his body was about to raise his knife to go into battle with strong support, without any ambiguity.
In terms of body type and position, Ye Haha lost.
"Ares, come back." Just when Ye Haha's chastity was about to be lost, a voice saved it from the dire straits.
When the snow-white big cat heard this, it really stopped moving, and after reluctantly hugging Ye Haha and chewing a few bites, it ran back to the direction where the sound came from as vigorously as it came.
Ye Zhao couldn't help but raise his head and look overβthis time, he met a pair of inquiring eyes.
Who are you?
Are you my guide?
Many years later, Ludwig will still find it incredible when he looks back on the night the two first met. It was as if the lightning and flint had hooked the earth's fire, and he identified this person almost instantly.
"Who are you?"
"If you're asking for my name, Ye Zhao."
"I'm Ludwig Boero."
Ye Zhao blinked, and suddenly stretched out his right hand and smiled-
"Nice to meet you. I mean...... It's great to meet you. β
