"What! Lin Ke..."

Zhou Yi's eyes turned black for a while, and his blood-losing face became even paler.

He could probably think of the reason. He didn't arrive at the agreed place on time. Lin Ke must have thought that something happened to him, and he was too worried to faint.

"Has Que Lan come back? Did he tell Lin Ke that I'm fine?"

"Xiaolan is still on the ship, the ceremony is not over, and he won't come back for the time being." Quefeng patted his uninjured shoulder.

"Zhou Yi, don't worry too much. Lin Ke is a soldier, and his physical fitness is so good. He will definitely be fine. Your first priority now is to recover from your injuries. Only when you get well soon can you see Lin Ke."

Zhou Yi forced a smile and looked at Quefeng.

"Thank you, Birdwind."

Zhou Yi waited for several days, but he didn't wait for Que Lan to come back, but he got a completely unexpected person, Quezhu.

The supreme leader of the half-orc clan rarely appeared in the news. Even though Zhou Yi had fought against the half-orc fleet many times before in the Fifth Fleet, he had never seen the bird master's face.So when that handsome pale man walked into his room, he didn't even realize that this was the famous Sparrow Master.

"The famous General Zhou in the empire turned out to be an embroidered straw bag that could be brought down with a single stab from the back, heh."

The man spoke standard galactic lingua franca, accompanied by two guards, and walked slowly to his bed.

Zhou Yi's injury was still not healed, so he could only half lie on the bed and realize his identity when he caught a glimpse of the golden wing badge on the man's shoulder.He smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Master Sparrow praised me too much. I just had the name of a general, and I have no real power for a long time."

The bird master looked at him scrutinizingly.

"You have no real power, but your partner Lin Ke is the supreme commander of the United Fleet. I heard that you have a child who is less than one year old, right?"

Zhou Yi's eyes showed vigilance, and he looked at him warily.

"What do you want?"

"Oh, don't worry, I won't make trouble with a child. Besides, I won't touch you. After all, you are the savior of my stupid son. If I do anything to you, he will fight with me."

Hearing his words, Zhou Yi's face did not relax much, and he still looked at him with condensed eyes.

"That Lin Ke is so gentle, he commanded the counterattack without hesitation, and damaged several medium-sized warships of our army. If only our half-orcs have such talents..."

It's not that Zhou Yi didn't hear the hint in his words, he frowned slightly, and remained silent all the time.

"General Zhou, although I don't agree with your physical ability, but you have the courage to go deep alone. An imperial man came to the territory of the orcs, and you can have both sides. There are people everywhere to protect you. I admire this."

"The Sparrow Master is overwhelmed." Zhou Yi remained expressionless.

"It's a pity that Your Majesty the Empire is so incompetent that he sent such a good general to me."

Hearing this, Zhou Yi's pupils shrank, and his face was a little gloomy.

The bird master looked at his expression and chuckled lightly.

"General Zhou is a smart man, he should have thought of it a long time ago. Why did Ouyang Lang insist on sending you to send the grandson of the Gulu tribe back here, and you happened to meet pirates on the way? Because Ouyang Lang didn't want you to live at all! And You are so stupid to work for such a cruel and ruthless monarch!"

Zhou Yi clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and his gaze became more and more gloomy.

"He is no longer His Majesty."

Two days ago, Quefeng told him that Ouyang Lang had been impeached and stepped down, and Ouyang Wei was the most vocal now, and was expected to ascend the throne in the near future.

"Oh? But so what, I heard that the Ouyang family will be on stage later. You know so many secrets of the royal family, do you think the royal family can tolerate you? How can you guarantee that Ouyang Wei is not the next Ouyang Lang?"

Zhou Yi closed his eyes, opened them again, and looked at Sparrow Master coldly.

"Lord Sparrow, I will go on the path I chose without hesitation. On the contrary, I'm afraid it doesn't make much sense if you come here to persuade me to surrender. If I can betray the empire, will I betray the half-orcs for greater benefits someday? Do you dare to use someone like me?"

The bird master looked at his cold eyes and laughed.

"General Zhou finally showed some demeanor of an imperial general. Don't worry, I won't force you. The future will be long. Let's see what happens next."

After saying this, the Sparrow Master walked out with a confident smile.

In the next few days, the bird master never came again, nor did he put him under house arrest as Zhou Yi expected, but instead assigned his own son to take care of him.

Zhou Yi looked helplessly at the young man with red lips and white teeth who was holding the medicine in front of him.

"Que Yu, I can drink it myself, you don't need to feed me."

The sparrow feathers look somewhat similar to sparrow blue, but the temperament is cleaner and more lively, and there is a light green feather-shaped animal pattern on the temples.

"How can I do that, my father told me to take good care of you. Besides, you saved the third and fourth brothers, and you are a great benefactor of our bird clan."

Que Yu brought the spoon in front of him, and said with a smile, "Come on, drink it. We will go to the banquet held by the father later."

Zhou Yi really couldn't hold him back, and he himself wanted the wound to heal soon, so he drank the bowl with his hand.The wound on his shoulder was a penetrating wound, and a small piece of bone was broken. Although the wound has begun to heal now, the bone still hurts faintly, and it has not healed.Now the right shoulder let alone lift things, it is very difficult to even turn it.

"Is there any happy event for the Sparrow Master to hold a banquet suddenly?"

"Of course, the peace talks went well. The United Fleet retreated and gave us jurisdiction over an asteroid."

Zhou Yi gave a soft "hmm" and asked again: "Then do you know...how is General Lin Ke doing?"

He had heard from Que Lan that Lin Ke had been promoted to major general by the committee chairman because of his meritorious service in leading the combined fleet to fight back against the half-orcs.

"I heard that he is still ill. The following ceremony was completed by a captain surnamed Jiang instead." Que Yu looked at Zhou Yi's expression and asked tentatively, "You...do you miss him very much?"

Zhou Yi smiled wryly, but did not speak.

Seeing his gloomy expression, Que Yu beckoned the maid to come in.

"You come to serve General Zhou to change clothes, the dinner party is about to begin."

Zhou Yi wore a gray-blue robe unique to half-orcs, and accompanied by Que Yu and two guards, entered the hall where the banquet was held.

As soon as he entered, Quefeng and Quelan walked over with a smile and looked at him.

"General Zhou, you look much better today."

"Yes, General Zhou, I will take you out for a walk some other day, and let you have a taste of Minerva's customs and customs." Quefeng said enthusiastically.

Zhou Yi smiled and looked at Quefeng: "Your common language is getting better and better."

"That's because I teach well!" Que Lan smiled proudly.

Zhou Yi saw the joyful appearance of the two brothers, and then thought of the intrigue among the royal family members of the empire, the smile on his face became a little stiff.

Suddenly, he felt a white light flashing beside him.

Alertness flashed across his eyes, and he turned his head to look, only to find that a camera was looking at him, and his face suddenly became a little ugly.

"Yi, don't worry, this is mainly for taking pictures of the father and mother, and will not take pictures of you."

"is it?"

Zhou Yi was worried, so he chose the corner seat to sit down, and Que Yu also sat beside him.

Zhou Yi's face was gloomy, and he didn't want to worry about the injury on his shoulder, so he picked up the fruit wine on the table and took a big sip.

"Yi, you can't drink too much of this, it's not good for the wound recovery." Que Yu worried.

Looking at his face, Zhou Yi seemed to see Lin Ke chanting beside him, he pursed his lips, took another big sip from his cup...

At this time, in a rest cabin of the United Fleet.

Jiang Yun stood by the bed, watched Lin Ke wake up slowly, and let out a big breath.

"Commander, how are you feeling? Is your chest still hurting?"

Lin Ke's beautiful and dull eyes opened, instead of looking at him, he looked at the starry sky outside the porthole.

"How many days have passed since I fainted?"

"In terms of solar days, three days have passed."

"Where's Zhou Yi? Is there no news yet?" He looked anxious, and wanted to sit up, but was pushed back by Jiang Yun.

"The port of Minerva star has recently strengthened its defenses. It will be very difficult for our people to sneak in. I haven't heard the news of Zhou Yi's accident. Don't worry, he may be delayed by something, so he can't catch up. superior."

"Delay..." Lin Ke smiled bitterly, his eyes were sad: "In his eyes, everything is more important than himself, more important than me..."

Jiang Yun looked at him and sighed lightly.

"Lin Ke, don't feel bad, or you will suffer from heart palpitations again. You spent a week without sleep and led the fleet to repel the orcs with great difficulty. If something happens again, it will not be worth the loss. And when the time comes If Zhou Yi comes back, I can't explain to him."

Lin Ke leaned against the head of the bed, his pale face was lifeless, as if he didn't hear what was being said at all.

Seeing his distraught appearance, Jiang Yun didn't know how to persuade him.Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Captain, the communication company has found some news about General Zhou, do you need to read it now?"

Before Jiang Yun could speak, Lin Ke's gray eyes suddenly lit up, and he raised his eyes and said, "Bring it in, show it to me."

"Yes, Commander!"

Xu Yuan walked in with an electronic screen in his hand, glanced at the two of them, with a hesitant expression on his face.

"Captain, Commander, these are some video materials we collected from the orc news, and the face of General Zhou appeared in it..."

"What are you talking about, show me first."

Jiang Yun impatiently took the electronic screen in his hand and pressed the play button. He didn't know what screen he saw, his expression froze, and he hurriedly turned off the video.

Lin Ke's long eyelashes were lifted, and he looked at him with piercing eyes. Although his voice was weak, he said with a certain majesty: "Bring it."

"Commander, why don't you take a nap first and watch it another day..." Jiang Yun looked puzzled.

"Jiang Yun! Do you want to disobey the military order?" Lin Ke gritted his teeth.

"My subordinates dare not."

Jiang Yun lowered his head, and before he could react, the electronic screen in his hand was snatched by Lin Ke.Lin Ke clicked on the news video, and saw some scenes. His face, which was so pale to the point of transparency, was completely devoid of blood.

In the picture, Zhou Yi and a beautiful half-orc are sitting in the corner of the banquet hall, Zhou Yi is holding a glass in his hand, seems to be drinking, and the half-orc puts one hand on his shoulder, leaning against his ear say something……

boom!

Lin Ke smashed the electronic screen to the ground with all his strength, and the LCD screen was instantly torn apart.His eyes were full of disappointment and anger. He sneered and said, "Oh, is this what he said about the delay? So he was busy drinking with the orcs?"

"Commander, don't be angry, there must be something hidden about this matter, maybe Zhou Yi was coerced by the Sparrow Master to..." Jiang Yun was anxious.

"You don't need to defend him! Can the bird master force him to attend a banquet? He knows I'm here, he knows me..." Lin Ke's voice became more and more broken, he pressed his chest, his face turned pale, He spat out a mouthful of blood.

Jiang Yun's expression changed drastically, he quickly supported him, and looked at Xu Yuan.

"Quickly, call the military doctor! Hurry up!"

"Yes, Captain." Xu Yuan hurriedly went outside the cabin.

After Lin Ke spit out the blood, his vision went dark and he fell unconscious.

The military doctor came over to make a diagnosis, saying that he had injured his internal organs due to rage, and the palpitations hadn't healed before, so he had symptoms of coma, so he had to be transferred to the medical cabin for observation.

In the evening, Lin Ke developed a high fever.

Jiang Yun stood guard in front of the medical cabin, and when he heard Lin Ke calling Zhou Yi's name in his sleep, his expression was also touched.

Zhou Yi, you guys are trying to find a way to come back quickly... Could it be that you really want to collude with the enemy and treason, and you don't even want your husband and son?

Jiang Yun sighed, looking at Lin Ke's sweaty face, he couldn't help but wipe his forehead.

"Zhou Yi..." Lin Ke closed his eyelashes tightly, as if trapped in some kind of nightmare, he kept calling Zhou Yi's name, anxious and worried: "Come back... come back!"

Gradually, that tone of voice began to be filled with resentment and anger, almost like weeping blood, word by word: "Zhou Yi...Zhou Yi...I won't wait for you...I won't wait anymore..."

Jiang Yun guarded Lin Ke for two days. On the evening of the second day, Lin Ke's fever finally subsided and he no longer needed to use the ventilator. He was relieved, and just after he left the medical cabin, he received a message from the chairman.

"Jiang Yun, I heard that Lin Ke is sick, what's going on?"

Jiang Yun told the chairman all the truth, but only vaguely mentioned Zhou Yi's part.

The chairman sighed.

"Lin Ke can't stay on the front line any longer. You can have someone send him back to recover from his injuries. You can temporarily act as the commander-in-chief of the fleet."

"Yes, Chairman."

Jiang Yun wanted to send Lin Ke back a long time ago, and after finishing the communication with the chairman, he immediately called Lin Ke's guard over.

"Listen to me, I will provide your guard with a fully equipped warship. After half an hour, you will take the commander on board and escort him back to the capital star. You must take care of the commander on the way, and there must be no mistakes. ,do you know?"

"Yes, Captain!"

**

"what!"

Zhou Yi woke up from the nightmare.

His head was covered with sweat, and he looked out of the window. Minerva had a very long daylight, and the sun had just set, and the setting sun was blood-like scarlet.He panted, pressed his forehead, and still had lingering fears when he thought of the scene in his dream.

He dreamed that Lin Ke was covered in blood and fell on the warship. No matter how much he shouted, Lin Ke was unconscious. He touched his hand and found that his whole body was like ice, without any signs of life...

Zhou Yi couldn't bear to recall any more, he tapped his forehead hard, put on his coat and got out of bed.

Of course he knew that nothing happened to Lin Ke. He watched the current affairs news of Minerva every day, and knew that the imperial fleet had retreated to Terminus, and the supreme commander had also changed from Lin Ke to Jiang Yun.On the Capital Star side, Ouyang Wei has been successfully crowned. The first thing she did after taking office was to award Lin Ke the Major General Order and promote him to be the commander of the Central Military Region.

Because of that well-known counterattack, the name Lin Ke became a household name in the entire galaxy, and even some people in the half-orcs praised him generously.

On the other hand, Zhou Yi's situation is not very good. Ever since the imperial family knew that he was still with the Sparrow Lord, their attitude was very subtle, and they didn't mention taking him back to Capital Star.Many media even criticized him for being suspected of "collaborating with the enemy and treason". Although he did nothing and refused all rewards from the bird owner, he was still labeled as a double-dealer.

Except for Quefeng and Quelan who occasionally talked to him, the other orcs in the palace didn't have a good attitude when they saw him. Some palace people even called him a traitor in front of his face.Zhou Yi didn't respond to this, and even laughed at himself.

The bird master saw that Zhou Yi didn't want to get in, and didn't want his son to waste his time on him, so he called Que Yu back.Zhou Yi was much more at ease when he was alone.

The Sparrow Lord's temper is uncertain, and he holds absolute power, so Zhou Yi can only live cautiously in the palace, not daring to say a word, not taking a step on the road.Stay in your room most of the time.

He still holds hope in his heart, he knows that the bird master is very fond of Que Lan, and one day Que Lan will take over, and he should have a chance to leave Minerva Star.

But no one knows, this opportunity is waiting for half a year.

Sparrow Master has been fighting north and south all year round, and he has many old injuries on his body. The winter in the northern hemisphere of Minerva is extremely cold. On this day, Sparrow Master suddenly suffered from a leg disease and fell into a coma for several days in the main hall of the meeting. Then he became the master of Quinlan.

Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, Quefeng quietly took him out of the palace and sent him to the port.

"Que Feng, I was in a hurry, so I didn't tell Xiao Yan, if you have a chance to see him, tell him for me, let him not worry about me."

"I know, I'll tell him when he comes back from Gemini, hurry up and be careful on the road."

Zhou Yi glanced at Quefeng for the last time, thanked him, took the pass card, and turned to board the bridge.

It took Zhou Yi nearly two months to return to Capital Star.

He was afraid of being recognized by others, so he was unkempt and bearded all the way, and was expelled from the port as a vagrant when he transited to different planets several times.When he finally returned to the capital star's spaceport, he couldn't even recognize the man reflected in the glass window.

Zhou Yi first contacted Jiang Yun at the spaceport, and he knew that Jiang Yun had been transferred back to Capital Star to serve as a staff officer in the military region.

Jiang Yun was shocked when he saw him.He really couldn't imagine that the gloomy and desolate man in front of him turned out to be the high-spirited Zhou Yi back then.

"You boy..." Jiang Yun's eyes were slightly red, he pressed him into his arms, and patted him hard.

"Why did you come back now..."

"It's a long story." Zhou Yi smiled wryly, a trace of pain suddenly flashed across his thin face, and his right shoulder moved.

"what happened?"

Seeing that his expression was wrong, Jiang Yun let him go immediately.

"I have an old wound on my shoulder... I was murdered by a half-orc before..."

"Are you all right? Do you want to go to the military hospital?" Jiang Yun looked anxious.

"No, it's just an old injury. I want to go home first and see Lin Ke and my son."

"Okay, hurry up, I'll find a car to take you off."

Before returning home, Zhou Yi borrowed money from Jiang Yun, bought new clothes, shaved his beard, groomed himself, and got on the suspension car.

When the hover car drove to the familiar villa, Zhou Yi was so nervous that his heart almost jumped out.

Today is the weekend, Lin Ke should be at home, probably taking care of his son.Imagining that scene, Zhou Yi unconsciously revealed a smile.

He swiped his fingerprints in front of the gate, and the gate opened in response. He walked in slowly, seeing the familiar flowers and plants in the yard, his nose was sour.

The door leading to the living room was open, before Zhou Yi walked in, he heard the young boy's tender and soft voice, calling "Dad, Dad."

With a move in his heart, he walked in quickly.On the sofa, a handsome alpha in casual clothes was playing with building blocks with a two-year-old boy. Hearing the sound of the door, he turned around and took a look.

Zhou Yi thought he would see surprise or excitement on Lin Ke's face, but to his surprise, when Lin Ke looked at him, the muscles on his face twitched twice, then he looked away and continued to look at the little boy sitting on the carpet .

"Lin Ke...I'm back..."

Zhou Yi was a little embarrassed. The layout of the room was familiar to him, but Lin Ke was stranger than a year ago. The affection and passion in his eyes when he used to look at him seemed to have disappeared, and his brows and eyes were as cold as knots. There was a layer of frost.

"Mumu is already this big."

Zhou Yi looked at the little boy on the ground and smiled.Unexpectedly, when the little boy saw him, his expression changed drastically, and he threw himself into Lin Ke's arms with his short, white legs.

"Dad... there are bad people... woo..."

Mumu doesn't know him anymore.

This recognition pierced Zhou Yi's heart like a sharp sword. He endured the pain in his chest and tried hard to maintain a smile on his face.

"Lin Ke, I'm sorry, I'm only coming back now...Because there were some twists and turns in the middle, I was delayed. I know I broke my promise, and it's normal for you to be angry with me..."

Lin Ke hugged Mu Mu, coaxing him gently, without looking at Zhou Yi.

"Lin Ke, can you listen to my explanation..."

Zhou Yi walked forward, and when he was about to touch Lin Ke's arm, the handsome alpha suddenly stood up, carried the little boy and went upstairs.

Zhou Yi sighed and sat down on the sofa.

After Lin Ke handed Mumu to the housekeeper, he went downstairs.

Seeing that he was back again, Zhou Yi's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward eagerly.

"Lin Ke, I—"

"Zhou Yi, let's get a divorce."
