On Sunday, Lin Ke made a rare trip home.

Lin's mother cooked a large table of dishes, Lin Zhen and Lin's father were also there.During the dinner, Mother Lin inadvertently mentioned Shen Nian.

"Xiao Ke, I heard that you and that child from the Shen family...are separated?"

Lin Ke ate the food and gave a soft "hmm".

Lin's mother suddenly showed a sad face: "Why did you break up with him? Two days ago, Mrs. Shen even said that she would come to our house as a guest."

Lin Zhen ate the rice in the bowl, and also looked at Lin Ke curiously.Father Lin, on the other hand, remained calm and expressionless.

Lin Ke said lightly: "If it's not suitable, we'll break up. Besides, we've never been together formally."

"Oh, you child, Shen Nian is such a good Omega, and his family background is also—"

"Okay!" Father Lin interrupted her impatiently, frowning slightly: "Eat well while eating, don't mention these things."

Mother Lin curled her lips and didn't ask any more questions.

After dinner, Mother Lin called Lin Ke into the living room again.

"Xiao Ke, now that your sister and your father are not here, please tell me carefully what happened between you and Shen Nian? I watched that child grow up, and I have nothing to say about his family background or character. It’s a bit disgraceful to use the means of the superior, but it has nothing to do with him.”

"Mom, it's not Shen Nian's problem. I regard him as my younger brother, and it's impossible to marry him."

"Then what do you like? You don't even like someone like Shen Nian. Are you asking too much?" Lin's mother was a little worried. This Lin Ke is also 28, why didn't he have a family? plan.

Lin Ke was slightly taken aback when he heard his words.He suddenly remembered that night, in the other garden of the palace, Zhou Yi gritted his teeth and said "there is no Omega in the whole galaxy worthy of you", and he smiled inexplicably.

"You child, what are you laughing at all of a sudden?"

Mother Lin looked at his expression carefully, his beautiful face was full of curiosity and temptation.

"You don't...do you have someone else you like? Which Omega is it?"

Lin Ke realized his distraction and immediately shook his head.

"No, you misunderstood."

"Okay, since you don't have anyone you like, go out and socialize more and meet some Omega." She took out an invitation card from under the coffee table and handed it to Lin Ke.

"Here, this is an invitation from the He family. It was originally your father who was invited, but your father has a meeting and is not free. You can go for him."

He family...

Lin Ke accepted the invitation, frowned slightly, and said, "Okay."

**

On the day of the reception.

Zhou Yi stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror, touched the collar of his shirt and looked left and right, feeling awkward no matter what.

"Deputy Commander, you look really handsome in a suit."

The guard behind said.

"Well, it's not bad, but the clothes are too uncomfortable to wear."

Zhou Yi is tall and straight, he is a walking hanger, a suit is perfect for him.It's just that he's used to wearing military uniforms, and he rarely wears such formal suits. He just feels that his whole body is bound by the fabric, especially the neckline, which makes him breathless.

"Does this button have to be fastened?"

"If you don't wear a tie, you don't have to wear the top two."

"Okay, then don't fight, lest you look like a hanged ghost."

The guard snorted.

Zhou Yi looked back at him and asked in surprise, "What are you laughing at?"

The guard was a young alpha captain in his early twenties.When he was first transferred to Zhou Yi's side, he was still a little afraid of this illustrious General Zhou. Later, he found out that Zhou Yi treated his subordinates very kindly in private, without any official pretensions, so now he occasionally dares to have some harmless things with Zhou Yi. joke.

"Deputy Commander, your words are really interesting."

Zhou Yi laughed "heh": "You want to say that I speak bluntly, right? I'm different from those gentle officers, and I can't learn their tricks."

The guard nodded and handed him the handkerchief again.

"Deputy Commander, the car is here, ready to leave at any time."

"Okay, let's go then."

The place where the He family held the charity reception was in the most prestigious manor in the Central District. It was said that it was the He family's private manor. Only a small part of it was open to the public, and it was used to operate golf courses and equestrian clubs.

Zhou Yi asked the guards to wait in the car, took the invitation, followed the guidance of the attendants through the garden corridor, and went to the banquet hall where the reception was held.

Before reaching the entrance of the hall, he heard talking and laughing.In the center of the banquet hall hangs a huge multicolored crystal chandelier, inside which floats the fragrance of clothes and temples, handsome men and beautiful women surround each other, pushing each other to exchange glasses, it is very lively.

As soon as Zhou Yi entered, he attracted everyone's attention.Since he was promoted to the deputy commander of the Central Military Region, this was the first time he stepped into the circle of high society.

The guests talked a lot, many Omega and beta stared at him curiously, some even whispered.

"Deputy Commander Zhou."

A clear voice sounded from the rear right, followed by a pungent and bitter smell of alpha pheromone, and a tall man walked up to him.

"You can come here, it really makes the humble house full of splendor."

This is also called a humble house?Isn't the place where he lives a kennel?Zhou Yi snorted softly in his heart, but his eyes lingered on the man's face calmly.

The man's facial features are gentle and handsome, he wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and there is a signature red scar under the corner of his eye.He immediately recognized that this was He Qingyuan.

"It's also my honor to be invited by Mr. He." Zhou Yi smiled slightly.

He Qingyuan laughed out loud, but soon the smile faded away, and he looked at him seriously.

"I have long heard that General Zhou is a man of talent, handsome and unrestrained, and seeing him today really deserves his reputation."

"The second young master is the personable and elegant, and Zhou Yi is ashamed of himself."

After the two flattered each other, He Qingyuan invited him to sit in a box in the corner.

Zhou Yi always had some precautions in his heart. He didn't believe that He Qingyuan didn't know what happened in the hospital. His cousin must have complained to him, but He Qingyuan pretended to be hospitable, as if he was about to throw him away when he saw him. He was regarded as a confidant, Zhou Yi was not sure what he was thinking, and was even more vigilant in his heart.

"General Zhou, this is the red wine I brought from Greystar, would you like to try it?"

He Qingyuan poured him a glass of red wine.

Zhou Yi held the glass of red wine and didn't move.He Qingyuan glanced at him and smiled knowingly.He picked up the goblet again, poured himself a glass, and took a sip.

"Don't worry, General Zhou, this is not an edge galaxy, no one will harm you."

Zhou Yi is not a drinker, and his appetite has not been good these days, so he put down the glass after taking a sip.He Qingyuan didn't try to persuade him anymore, instead he chatted with him about the fringe galaxy.

"Second Master He seems to be very familiar with the fringe galaxies?"

Zhou Yi asked.

He Qingyuan smiled: "I often go on business trips to different galaxies. Although the marginal galaxies are desolate, the star field is really beautiful. There are a few asteroids that make me linger."

Zhou Yi laughed.

"Beautiful, but also dangerous. After all, it is a galaxy often harassed by orcs, and the aborigines on it are complaining."

"General Zhou really cares about people's suffering." He Qingyuan swirled the red wine in his glass, his tone sounded like praise, but there seemed to be another meaning in it.

"As a soldier, these are my duties."

He Qingyuan nodded, suddenly thought of something, blinked, and looked at Zhou Yi.

"By the way, General Zhou, I heard that you are not married yet, are you?"

Zhou Yi's heart trembled, and he looked at him warily.

"General Zhou, don't be so defensive. I happen to have a distant cousin, an Omega who has just grown up, and he is here today. The reception is boring, why don't I let him accompany General Zhou?"

Before Zhou Yi could refuse, He Qingyuan had already clapped his hands, and immediately, an Omega with fairer skin than snow came out from behind the crystal curtain.

The young man looked to be in his late twenties, with exquisite and coquettish features, and a pair of clean and transparent azure blue pupils. Looking at him, Zhou Yi took a sharp breath.

The last time he was shocked by this beauty beyond gender was when he went to the palace to meet the queen.

He Qingyuan watched him staring at He Lan intently, and chuckled softly.

"General Zhou, how is it? Do you still like it?"

Zhou Yi took a sip of tea, remained silent for a few seconds, and smiled.

"Second Master He really has a heart."

"Xiao Lan, pour a glass of wine for General Zhou."

"Yes, General."

With her head down, He Lan walked up to Zhou Yi, picked up the wine bottle on the table with her weak and boneless fingers, and was about to pour wine for Zhou Yi, when a laughing voice sounded behind them.

"Second Young Master He, it's not unreasonable for you to secretly drink good wine here?"

"Staff Lin, are you here? Hurry up and sit down."

Seeing Lin Ke appearing, He Qingyuan smiled a bit.Both the He family and the Lin family are well-known families in the Central District, the elders usually have some friendship, and the relationship between the younger generations is not bad.

Seeing Lin Ke appearing, Zhou Yi was slightly taken aback.Today Lin Ke wore a pure black suit with dark lines. He was already fair-skinned, but the color of the suit made his face even whiter, but his dark eyes were deep, and his lips were pink-tender. It is the same as artificial AI model.

Lin Ke glanced at Zhou Yi, then looked at He Lan next to him, frowned slightly, and sat down beside He Qingyuan.

"Staff Lin, why don't you see your District Chief Lin?"

"Father is on official business, so he can't come, please forgive me, Mr. He."

"Look at what you said, what is the relationship between our two families, it's the same when you come."

He Qingyuan poured him a glass of red wine, and said with a smile: "General Zhou can't drink, I dare not pour him down. As soon as you come, someone will drink with me."

Lin Ke smiled and took a sip of the red wine.

"Wine bar from Greystar?"

"Staff Lin is really knowledgeable, and He admires it."

Lin Ke put down the goblet, pretending to be unintentionally looking at He Lan who was standing opposite.

"Who is this?"

"Oh, I forgot to introduce, this is my distant cousin, He Lan, you can call him Xiao Lan." He turned to the handsome young man standing next to him, and almost ordered: "Hurry up and call him Staff Officer Lin." .”

"Hello, Staff Officer Lin."

He Lan's voice was also soft, with the clarity of a young man, and her light blue pupils looked straight at Lin Ke.Lin Ke stared at his almost inorganic pupils, his face seemed to be stabbed by something.

These eyes are beautiful, but they look a little fake and lack a little vitality.Moreover, Lin Ke also disliked the smell of He Lan's body. The omega scent was too strong, as if it was artificially synthesized.

It's just that no matter how upset he was, there was still an appreciative smile on his face.

"Second Young Master's cousin is really a celestial being."

He Qingyuan chuckled, and glanced at Zhou Yi.

"What does Staff Lin think, how about I introduce him to General Zhou?"
