Same light

In the silent deep sky, a small interstellar ship is silently moving forward.

The waiter pushed the dining car out of the starship's pantry, passed through the corridor covered with white and expensive stone bricks, bypassed the tall and exquisitely carved decorative columns, and passed through a small holographic natural landscape garden, stopping In front of a luxurious gold-encrusted gate.

"His Royal Highness." He knocked on the door lightly twice and raised his voice, "Your dinner has been delivered, may I come in?"

The door was suddenly opened from the inside, and a young man in military uniform stood inside the door.

The waiter was slightly taken aback.He only knew that this noble son who was dawdling in his father's army was accompanying him this time, but he didn't expect that this person would appear in the prince's study room, and he bowed and saluted two seconds later: "Major Austin."

Behind Austin is a spacious study room, and the current Crown Prince Xiu is sitting behind that luxurious desk.

"Come on," Xiu said.

His voice was steady, and his pretty face was calm.

The images of noble children will not be exposed easily, so few commoners have seen the prince's appearance, and few people really know how outstanding the prince's appearance is.

He is not as burly as His Majesty today, nor as glamorous as the former Empress, but as calm and gentle as jade.

From a well-behaved young man to a prestige young man, he never makes mistakes, is always calm, and is always decent. It seems that he was born to be the heir of the empire—and he was indeed born to be the heir of the empire.

Austin turned sideways and asked the waiter to push the dining car in, without stopping, continued the previous topic and said indifferently: "His Royal Highness, I have visited Xuelixing several times in the past two years, but I really I haven't seen His Highness's face."

The waiter was startled and didn't dare to listen, so he hurried away.

After the door was closed, Xiu said calmly: "Now your subordinates even acquiesce that the person who gave them instructions is His Highness. What's going on?"

Austin was surprised: "My subordinates? Are you talking about the housekeepers and servants in my family? How is that possible? They have served our Stone family for generations!"

"I mean the team stationed on Xueli Planet." Xiu said.

"Oh! They." Austin suddenly realized, "That's under my name. How can I be promoted to lieutenant colonel without soldiers? I don't understand the twists and turns in these troops. You have to ask my father .”

He was not at all ashamed of relying on the nepotism of his father, Marshal Stone, to raise his military rank all the way, but he did not shy away from talking about it.

Xiu Dao: "Since you don't care about these soldiers, why did you go to Xueli Star several times for inspection during the two years they were stationed on Xueli Star?"

"There is still work to be done on the surface." Austin said with a smile, "I know, many people privately criticize me for relying on connections to gain positions—you see, Your Highness, I will at least inspect the troops sent out under my name for training. It's much better to be a priest who just acts as a mascot and does nothing."

The Stone family is a family of hereditary dukes, and has always produced military generals. The current Duke of Stone is a Grand Marshal, but his eldest son Austin is an ignorant dude.

Many people secretly said that the Stone family, which has been glorious since its founding, may be defeated by the next Duke of Stone.

Xiu was noncommittal, didn't ask any more questions, and didn't reprimand him for being disrespectful to the high priest, but suddenly changed his tone and said, "Your Highness has a lover, do you know?"

Austin's playful expression froze for a moment, but it was only for a moment.

"Your Highness is already in a relationship?" He laughed twice, and said with an ambiguous expression, "Yes, he is 21, an adult, and he has reached this age. Back then, when I was young, I was already..."

"There has already been a romantic scandal with an entertainment star." Xiu interrupted him, "Your Highness should use a false identity to complete his unfinished studies at the Xuelixing Branch of the Royal Academy, and spend the rest of the time behind closed doors instead of being a commoner. Hanging out in bars, flirting with waiters, talking about his new girlfriend."

Xiu's tone was not intense, but Austin could hear that the prince was in a bad mood.

"It's okay for adults to go to a bar, besides... what does this have to do with me." Austin muttered.

"You have come to Xue Li Xing four times in the past two years. Finding fun in bars, sex scandals, these are your strengths-did you teach him?"

Austin immediately shouted: "Your Highness, I have never seen him! When I first came to Xuelixing, I went to school to look for him, but was told that he had been sick and didn't even go to school. , I never saw his face!"

Xiu Wu's black eyes calmly stared at him, as if evaluating his credibility.

Austin looked back at the prince sincerely.

If there is anything wrong with this perfect crown prince, it is that he failed to inherit the superior genetic ability of the royal family, that is to say, he is an ordinary person.

This is not a problem for the common people who are almost composed of ordinary people, and even because of this, the common people are closer and love the prince.

But in the aristocratic circle, it is still unavoidable to be underestimated.

The genetic symbol of the royal family is golden pupils, and the crown prince does not have them, but Austin still felt the pressure under the gaze of these ordinary eyes, and his hands behind his back slowly clenched into fists.

Finally, Xiu said, "It's fine if it's not. It's about to land, so go."

"Yes, Your Highness." Austin bowed his chest, saluted and left.

Fred had dinner at a restaurant in Starship Port, while he was idly scrolling through the news on the Internet, a tall woman came to his seat and asked softly, "Mr. Fred? "

Fred looked up at the person—under the heavy makeup, the young girl looked very beautiful.

"May?" he asked.

"It's me, Mr. Fred," said May, in a sweet voice.She was about to sit opposite Fred, but after thinking about it, she changed her mind and sat directly beside Fred.

Fred let her sit down, but he seemed to lack interest. He still stared at the news on the handheld and said, "You can order by yourself. I will reimburse the expenses."

"Okay." Mei said softly, "You can call me Xiaomei, that's my nickname."

Fred finally took his eyes off the phone. He looked at Xiaomei's exquisite makeup for a few seconds, and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you talking like that?"

Xiaomei opened her eyes wide, and said with an aggrieved face, "Don't you like it? I did everything according to your request."

"You sound like a minor to me," Fred said relentlessly, "change the emphasis to a mature one."

"Yes." Xiaomei still said in a sweet voice, "but you need to pay more."

Fred paused: "Wait, why do you need to add money?"

"Because you temporarily changed the character design." Xiaomei said, "I have been thinking about this character design for a long time and put a lot of effort into it. Now that you are temporarily changing the requirements, I will spend a lot of effort to adjust it, and it will cost more money."

"...All right." Fred said indifferently, "You can change it, and I'll add money."

Xiaomei immediately changed her voice to a mature girl and said, "No problem, sir."

Fred glanced at her, "Why do I feel that you didn't put in a lot of effort?"

"No, this is due to my solid basic skills. Changing the voice seems to be effortless, but it actually requires a lot of adjustments." Xiaomei said with a smile, "Do you need me to hold you for dinner?"

Fred didn't bother with her on the previous topic, and went back to the news by himself.

"Not for now. You eat yours, and I will tell you when the person who should arrive arrives."

Xiaomei naturally knew that it was impossible for this person to come to Starship Port to pick her up on purpose, so she quietly ordered a meal for herself, silently waiting for the person Fred really wanted to pick up to appear.

After about half an hour, the flow of people outside gradually dwindled.

Fred put away the phone, stood up and said, "Let's go...my dear."

Xiaomei obediently took his arms and walked out with him intimately.Xiaomei was originally very tall, but when she snuggled up to the tall Fred, she actually looked petite.

Fred seemed to be wandering around Starship Port aimlessly with the beauties until they bumped into a group of people at the exit of the little-known VIP passage.

Xiu's visit to Xueli Xing this time was not done with much fanfare, and even the local area received the news temporarily when he was about to arrive.The entourage he brought was very streamlined. Except for Austin, who happened to come to inspect the army and asked to accompany him, he almost only brought a set of necessary personnel on the starship.

But someone precisely blocked him when he left the port.

Fred held Xiaomei, who was wearing heavy make-up, intimately, and passed by Xiu and his party.

Xiu closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "Stop."

The roar of the interstellar spacecraft taking off came from a distant place, and Austin and the few entourage present did not dare to breathe out, just pretending that they were not here.

In the ice-like atmosphere, Fred led people past as if he didn't hear the "stop".

"Alfred!"

Fred stopped and turned to face Xiu.

"What's the matter with you?" He asked with a curved lip and a smile.

Xiu said in a deep voice, "Is this the attitude you have when you see your elder brother?"

Fred took out an ID card from his pocket, and shook it cynically: "Sir, my name is Fred. You can talk nonsense..." His tone became gloomy, "...brother, don't make mistakes. .”
