one step away [Interstellar]

75.

In the cold autumn day of Fort Senderland, Xia Zuo completed a particularly important event in her life. She looked at the woman in front of her and watched her gently put away her ring. onto the other's empty fingers.

Xia Zuo lowered his eyes from the sense of restraint coming from his ring finger, and the delicate henna stone reflected a bright cold light under the not-so-bright light.Xia Zuo moved his fingertips and looked at Heber, "Heber, can I put it on for you?"

Now that she is married, can she do something more?

Her soft words fell into Heber's ears, like a gentle breeze, so Heber raised his head, met the other's blue eyes, and saw his own reflection engraved in the eyes.

She smiled, and said softly, "This is what it should be." Saying so, she handed another ring to Xia Zuo's hand, and said softly, "Then I will trouble you."

In her words, Xia Zuo opened that exquisite little box, and saw another ring that was the same as the one on her finger.

Obviously, this is a pair of rings, and also their... wedding rings.

Even with this understanding, Xia Zuo couldn't help but tremble when his fingertips touched the ring.Taking off the exquisite ring with his fingertips, Xia Zuo leaned over and took Heber's hand.

Holding Heber's fingertips, she slowly pushed the ring into Heber's ring finger.There are no ceremonies, no oaths, nothing related to a heavy sense of ceremony.But at this moment, when Xia Zuo leaned over to push the ring in, Heber's heart jumped a few times uncontrollably in his slow and reverent movements.

At this moment, Heber felt that Xia Zuo was the most devout believer.

"Okay." After finally putting on the ring, Xia Zuo raised his head and showed Heber a brilliant smile.

In such late autumn when the leaves were falling, her smile seemed to be the brightest beam of light falling on Heber.

No, how can such a person be a believer? She is clearly the god watching all living beings in the church.The soon-to-be believer... is her.

But isn't the most pious belief to sacrifice oneself to God?

Those absurd thoughts hovered in Heber's mind, lingering.Until she walked down the steps, she didn't say goodbye to Xia Zuo properly.In a trance, she heard herself saying goodbye to Xia Zuo, so she turned around, escaped from that warm gaze, and melted herself into the cold autumn day.

On the wedding day, Heber decided to part again.

Hebe didn't tell Sang Xu about going out to register. For this reason, Sang Xu, who followed his father to the horse race at noon, was a little angry after Hebe came back.Probably because Xia Zuo was worried that Xia Zuo would take Heber away in a frenzy, the younger sister, who was worried about her sister's personal safety, told her sister seriously.

The people who were still angry at first were stunned when they heard Heber promised that Xia Zuo would not appear again for a while.Well, it looks like a contractual marriage of your own accord.

Because the due date was approaching, Heber, who had already decided to have his child born in the Federation, did not stay in Sunderland Castle for as long as planned.Well, she came to Sunderland Castle only to hide from Xia Zuo for a while.But she didn't expect that Xia Zuo's action would be so quick to solve the problem of crossing between them.

He Bo, who no longer needed to avoid Xia Zuo, returned to Haisong, continued his work, and waited for the due date of delivery.

The demise of the silver snake was an opportunity for the decline of the Winster family. Soon, on the eve of the upcoming queen's celebration in the empire, the Ministry of National Defense announced the retirement of Marshal Norton at a meeting.Immediately afterwards, the empire passed a proposal, that is, the centralization system that put the command of the military department on the shoulders of the generalissimo for many years, and restored it to a parliamentary voting system that is ruled by one person and participated by many people.

In such a peaceful age, restoring such a system can undoubtedly avoid the tendency of military power to influence the regime and seize power.

The nobles were busy dividing up the scattered forces of the Winster family, but under the control of each family, they did not go too far.After all, there are still many members of the Winster family among the members of the military command council to be formed.

But some families that cooperated very closely with the Winster family were not so lucky.For example, Maureen's family is undoubtedly completely bankrupt, and there is no room for recovery.But the surprising thing is that the Fox family, which remains neutral no matter what, has also been affected this time.

Probably because the new executive president was too eager for quick success after the retired Marquis known as the old fox.Of course, only Xia Zuo, who single-handedly dragged Fox into the water, knew the deeper reason.

It's just Heber's half-brother who made some ulterior deals with Maureen in order to ensure his position as the heir.

For example, in order to ensure his position as the heir, this younger brother once cooperated with Maureen to force Heber to give up Fox's family business.Even later, Heber's location was found out from the Marquis of Fox and handed over to Maureen.

In Haisong's plan, Heber, who had been well hidden, was found by Maureen in this way.You know, in order to ensure Heber's safety, Xia Zuo kept her well hidden from outsiders.

Based on the above reasons, or for some other reasons, Xia Zuo did not hesitate to strike at the other party in order to ensure that Heber was safe in Fox's house.

Under her operation, Fox's stock fell terribly. In just half a month, almost all of the main properties in San Lanrenzo were in Xia Zuo's hands.It is very strange that the Marquis, who is the head of the family, did not show up this time. The matter did not turn around until all the board members persuaded him to come back to take power.

The Marquis did not tell Heber about these things, but Heber, who has been paying attention to the top structure of his empire's wealth, more or less guessed a little bit.Instead of helping her family, she and Sang Xu bought a lot of stocks in many companies under Fox's name during this period.

And according to the situation of the empire, it can be inferred that Xia Zuo should be very busy during this period of time.After all, after the mainstay of the Winster family is pushed, the military department will replace talents.Coupled with Xia Zuo's background, she has no reason not to occupy a place in the top ranks of the military.

Obviously, such a Xia Zuo had to start his own busy life again, so he didn't have time to visit her in Haisong.For some reason, Heber breathed a sigh of relief after having such an understanding.

In addition, Sang Xu is currently busy with the promotion of the new movie, so he can only find time to accompany her occasionally. For his own consideration, Heber did not handle the housework by himself, but hired a servant.Just when Heber thought that he would never see Xia Zuo again for a long time, someone knocked on the door of her house one night.

In the black night, the tall alpha dragged a heavy suitcase and stood at Heber's door.Sarah, the new servant of Heber's family, looked at this strange female alpha who appeared in front of her, and didn't know what to call her for a while, until her eyes fell on the bright ring on Xia Zuo's left ring finger, Thinking of his hostess who was about to give birth and the same ring on her hand, the clever servant asked hesitantly, "Is it... Your Excellency Westerell? Ma'am, it is His Excellency Westerrell who came back." gone."

Yes, Ms. Sarah, a native born and raised federal traditional beta married woman.After knowing that his new master was a married pregnant woman, he changed from Miss Heber to his wife.According to her working experience in many well-to-do wealthy families, there would be no problem with such a title.

Of course, Heber, who was not entangled in such matters, accepted her title, and spent a week happily with his servant.The moment she saw Xia Zuo, she thought that she should have asked Sarah to change her words.

Westerell?It's true that my surname is this, but... Xia Zuo's...

After marriage, one of the two people who become partners changes their surname.Obviously, Heber's new servant thought that his mistress had changed her surname after she got married.Therefore, it can be calculated that the person standing in front of her is obviously the one who married her mistress, so according to the reasoning, it must be Lord Westerell.

The completely unfamiliar face made Xia Zuo a little dazed, and the unfamiliar address made her unable to react for a while.She turned her gaze, and subconsciously searched for the only figure she was familiar with in this not-so-familiar place, and finally saw Heber on the sofa looking at her in surprise.

She suddenly thought of Heber's surname, and then realized who the wife was referring to, and who the Lord Westerrell was referring to.

Mrs……

Xia Zuo called out silently in his heart, then turned his eyes to the servant in front of him, and chuckled, "My surname is not Westerell, my name is Xia Zuo, Xia Zuo Weil." As she said this, she set her eyes on Heber and raised her voice slightly, "Heber, can I come in?"

Could Hebe refuse her?Of course it can't.

So in such a late night, Xia Zuo broke into his wife's house majestically.

Yes, Xia Zuo came, and left all the messy things he did in San Lorenzo to his subordinates, and came to the place where Heber was alone.

"Why...you have time to come here." He Bo, who had already ordered Sarah to bring Xia Zuo's salute to the guest room, looked at the young man sitting in front of him, and asked a little uncomfortable.

There is still some time before the day of giving birth, but because of being twins, Heber's belly is already much bigger than before.Xia Zuo's eyes fell on her abdomen, and he looked at his unborn child with a smile on his face. After hearing Heber's question, he raised his eyes and said with a smile, "There is nothing I need to take care of here. So I came here. Do you mind if I live here for a while? Until the baby is born, how about it?"

After thinking about it, Heber couldn't find a reason to reject this person.Whether as a wife or the mother of the child, she couldn't stop Xia Zuo from seeing the birth of her child.

Heber slowed down his breathing, and tried his best to say in an irrelevant tone, "Of course, there are still many vacant rooms here, you can choose by the way, I hope you can live comfortably here, after all, only Sarah Doing the housework alone."

Yes, compared to the place where there are many servants in the Duke's Mansion, Heber seems to be a little weak here.

"It's the best thing that you didn't reject me." Xia Zuo said so, showing a very bright smile.

So smoothly, Xia Zuo found a place to stay in Heber's house.Because of Xia Zuo's arrival, He Bei had to build up her heart for another night, until she woke up in the morning, when she saw the figure coming out of the kitchen, she completely collapsed.

"Good morning, Hebe." The young Duke was wearing an apron, holding a prepared breakfast on the dining table, and showing a bright smile to the lady who just got up.

Sarah looked at her hostess in nightgown, and said with a smile, "Your Excellency Xia Zuo's cooking skills are very good. It's rare to see an alpha who can cook. My wife really married a good sir."

Mrs?

Hearing this title again, Xia Zuo frowned slightly, and held back his reserved smile.

He Bo, who was still wearing a somewhat messy nightgown, looked at Xia Zuo standing in front of him with a sunny face, and suddenly felt a little pain in his temple.
