The General Loves to Collect Little Red Flowers

Chapter 97

Extra release that we owe you last week hehe ~~

Edited by Qiuxue and Noks

Yan Jie and Yang Hengtian were working on a confidential project related to the new military network system. The two of them intended to first discuss things between themselves before turning to Xu Yao in the case they encountered any problems. They could then search for a solution together.

Coupled with Yan Jie’s repeated warnings, reminding Yang Hengtian not to talk to outsiders about this matter, there were consequently not many people who knew about the relationship between them.

But now, the situation was no longer the same. Following the incident, Yang Hengtian began to actively spread his ‘propaganda’, so it was not surprising that, not long after, everyone in the Flying Wolf Division knew that he was chasing Yan Jie.

It was an autumn full of love and vigor.

It was similar to an Indian summer, yet it didn’t affect a certain person’s enthusiastic pursuit of his loved one in the slightest.

Even if it resulted in Yan Jie often erupting in anger and brandishing his fangs, Yang Hengtian remained calm.

“Shall we wager on how many days it will take before Yan Jie submits?” Tang Ye suggested with a smile.

“Lieutenant General Tang, Brother Tang, did I somehow offend you before?!” Yan Jie was embarrassed to death when he heard Tang Ye’s proposal.

Since the time Yang Hengtian had uttered the words ‘mark of love’, he had become the focus of attention wherever he went. Even though they had yet to even start anything, most of his comrades had already come forward to offer their ‘congratulations’.

If they were to really start a relationship in the future, wouldn’t it mean that they would end up needing to congratulate him twice?

Congratulations? Hmph, are you sure it’s not a beating you want?!

“Oh, it’s not because you messed with me or anything.” Tang Ye laughed, “But, I’m just a bit bored right now. Haha. “

Emperor Kunta and the Empress would shortly be arriving at Huaxia. It was due to their arrival that all the senior officers had gathered at the port, ready to welcome them.

It was just that such periods of waiting would be really boring.

Le Yao was standing nearby with his children and, upon hearing the earlier conversation, he simply added, “I also want to bet.”

Xu Yao glanced over with a smile.

But Tang Ye quickly refused, saying, “Le Yao, you’re forbidden from participating in this bet. If you join us, it won’t be fun anymore, ah. With your ability, won’t you be able to simply calculate when Yan Jie will surrender to Yang Hengtian?”

“I can only calculate the end result you know, not the exact time.”

Yan Jie felt more speechless after hearing this.

Isn’t this just another way of saying that he will end up accepting Yang Hengtian?

He could only be glad that this ‘welcome team’ was divided into two: the Flying Wolf Division group and the Delegation group. At least this way he was separated from Yang Hengtian.

However, that still didn’t mean that he wouldn’t feel embarrassed in this sort of situation. He couldn’t help but sneak a glance at Yang Hengtian on the other side, but who would have known that Yang Hengtian would also be looking at him at the same time?!

When he discovered this cute scene of their gazes interlocking by pure chance, Yang Hengtian sent him a wink.

Thus, just when Yan Jie thought that no one had noticed and was planning on the best way to beat up a certain Alpha later, he heard whistles and bursts of ‘Ohhh~’s in the next second!

What the hell!

“Ohhh, they sent a secret wink~” said one of the soldiers.

“Officer Yan, you’re finished! Look at him blushing, ah~” The others followed with teasing laughter.

“I’m not! I didn’t! The Emperor will be here soon, can you all just stay quiet?” Yan Jie quickly scolded them and no longer dared to look in Yang Hengtian’s direction. He would just pretend not to know him at all!

“Baby, are you tired?” Xu Yao asked Le Yao with concern as he caressed his hand.

“What do you think?” Le Yao gave Xu Yao a fierce glance.

Last night had been dedicated to their first round of ‘exercise’ since he had been discharged from the hospital. If there weren’t for this really special occasion, he would rather have chosen to stay at home and rest!

“Hah, last night was a mistake.” He couldn’t help say this to Xu Yao with a hint of grievance.

At first, Le Yao had tried to refuse. But, in the end, who would be able to endure and really refuse a handsome and great man like Xu Yao? Then Xu Yao, after tasting a long-awaited meal, couldn’t hold himself back from asking for a second helping.

It was because of this that Xu Yao felt a bit guilty. With a fist covering his mouth, he lightly coughed and averted his gaze.

Not long after this, a gigantic spaceship finally docked at the port with a reverberating tremor. Then, Emperor Kunta and the Empress emerged, disembarking side by side.

And behind them were Uncle Ming and Le Feishan.

Le Yao frowned and whispered to Xu Yao, “Why did he also come here?”

Naturally, this ’he’ was referring to Le Feishan and not Uncle Ming.

Xu Yao slowly shook his head.

It couldn’t possibly be that his presence was due to Le Tianyu’s news. After all, when Xu Yao sent the information to the Emperor, he had already been on his way to Huaxia.

Furthermore, if it was the Davis Family who had managed to get a hold of this information, it was even more unlikely for them to inform Le Feishan who had already set off with the Emperor.

In addition, if the Emperor knew that he had come here for Le Tianyu, Le Feishan’s military uniform would have been stripped away long ago. Yet he was still wearing it at this moment.

Unless... Xu Yao laughed as if suddenly understanding something.

“What are you laughing at?” Le Yao asked curiously.

“It’s nothing,” Xu Yao replied.

The distance between them was slowly decreasing and, from this close proximity, he could see that Le Feishan appearance wasn’t good. There were dark shadows circling his eyes. It seemed that Jiang Xinduo’s ex-husband’s nightly ‘torture’ and hauntings weren’t light.

Jiang Xinduo had already turned crazy. How could he let Le Feishan, the bastard who had killed him, live peacefully?

That would be impossible.

Le Yao subconsciously moved closer to the incubator where the children were sleeping, as if to protect them from any dangers.

Seeing his protective action, Xu Yao reached out to hold his hand and reassured him, “Don’t worry, nothing bad will happen. I’m here.”

Le Yao nodded reluctantly and walked forward with Xu Yao.

“We welcome the Emperor and the Empress to the Flying Wolf Division.”

Xu Yao continued, “The journey must have been hard on the both of you.”

“What kind of hardship could it be when compared to all of you, the soldiers who diligently guard Huaxia?”

It was now autumn but the weather outside remained quite hot. Even though the Emperor and Empress wore cooling suits, they could still clearly feel the heat.

The Empress suggested, “Let’s find a cooler place. Xiao Le Yao still needs to have more time to rest.”

Although there was no concept of ‘childbirth recovery’ for male Omegas, it was still believed that those who had recently given birth should rest for longer periods of time. It seemed that this was quite common, so there was no exception needed for Le Yao, who had experienced a premature birth not long ago.

The Emperor came closer and peered at the children in the incubator.

“It’s true that the tiger father has no dog children. Although these three little ones were born small, they look to be very healthy.”

The Emperor tilted his head slightly backwards. “General Le, look at your healthy grandchildren, how great you must be feeling since you’re their grandfather.”

Le Feishan stepped forward and eyed them while smiling awkwardly. “Thank you for your blessing.”

Le Yao snorted inwardly. Although there was no impatience written on his face, he didn’t believe that Le Feishan would be happy to see the children. After all, their relationship was hardly on good terms.

Xu Yao looked at Le Feishan and smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

He turned sideways as he gestured and said, “Emperor, Empress, this way please.”

The Empress walked side by side with Le Yao as they conversed. “What did the doctor say? How’s your health?”

Le Yao answered, “Thank you for your concern, Empress. I’m fine already. In fact, so long as the children are healthy, I will be fine.”

The Empress laughed. “That’s right. Let’s go and find a spot where I can take a good look at these little guys. It’s been years since I’ve seen an Omega having triplets.”

The Emperor then followed to say, “Then you and Xiao Le Yao should find a place to rest. I’ll go ahead with General Xu and General Le to take a look around.”

“Un, that’s good. Let’s go Xiao Le Yao.”

Le Yao nodded in affirmation.

The Emperor and the Empress had come prepared. They had brought their own smart mobile house which meant that there was no need for the Flying Wolf Division to arrange a residence for them.

Just a short distance from the place where Xu Yao lived, there were several houses ready to receive guests, and they could be relocated at any time.

The Empress placed their mobile house close to that area, and it would only take a short while before the house was fully set up. While waiting, the Empress herded Le Yao into the shade of the trees nearby.

The guards were standing at a certain distance, and upon seeing that they were at a distance where they wouldn’t overhear any conversations, Le Yao whispered to the Empress, “Empress, may I ask, why has my father also come here?”

“Oh, General Le himself asked the Emperor whether he could be allowed to follow on this visit; he said he wanted to see you. He didn’t tell you?”

Le Yao chose not to hide this fact and replied honestly, "No. We don’t usually have much communication.”

The Empress had heard a few things about the relationship between Le Feishan and Le Yao. Furthermore, Jiang Xinduo had not been very good to Le Yao even before being exposed on the Internet, so he could vaguely guess that there really were some hidden matters between them.

“It seems that Mrs Le, nowadays, rarely goes out. I heard that she hasn’t been in good health and needs to stay in the hospital for treatment. She hasn’t been seen at home recently, and with Le Tianyu also gone, your father must be feeling lonely.”

The Empress then added, “In any case, who would be unhappy about being a grandfather? Look at how cute these three little guys are. I like them all.”

“If you like them, that is surely a blessing for our children. But about my father... forget it. He wouldn’t have noticed me if I didn’t happen to have a few special abilities.”

Even if he died, Le Yao firmly wouldn’t believe that the reason for Le Feishan’s presence here was to see his grandchildren.

Humph! It’s more likely that he came to hide from Jiang Xinduo’s ex-husband who is haunting him!

“Alas, let’s not talk about this anymore.” The Empress turned his gaze to the children inside the incubator.

“Right, what are their names? Which one is the eldest?”

“This one is the eldest, a boy. He’s called Xu Hang. He has a small birthmark on his hand. Our second child is also a boy, he’s called Xu Wei, and this little one is a girl called Xu Li. Their names are quite ordinary, but they really were the most suitable for them.”

“And they are all Alphas...”

“That’s right.”

“Hmm, then maybe I should ask the Emperor for an Omega in the future,” the Empress said laughingly.

“My fifth child will be four-years-old this year. Maybe they will still have the chance to be married. The Emperor and my mother always keep boasting of your good character. Your and General Xu’s children certainly won’t be led astray.”

“Ah, I feel very embarrassed hearing you say something like this. Honestly, I didn’t expect for not even one of them to be an Omega.”

He had previously calculated that he would have two boys and a girl. He had also thought that perhaps the girl would be an Omega, but never had he expected that he would give birth to three Alphas.

The Empress smiled and said nothing.

Although Omegas were rare, in fact, most families would still want to give birth to Alphas. It was because the reality was that most Omegas would eventually have to marry an Alpha and leave home.

But Le Yao hadn’t thought too far along this line of thought yet. In the end, they would all still be his children!

Le Yao didn’t have the nerve to say that he didn’t want to become pregnant again, but three little ones would really be enough to keep his hands full.

Moreover, although he hadn’t expected this outcome, having three Alphas was also good. At least he could have more peace of mind since estrus wouldn’t be a problem.

By this time, the Empress and Emperor’s residence was finally set up. Le Yao followed the Empress into the super large and luxurious smart mobile house.

On the other hand, Xu Yao had taken the Emperor’s group, along with the delegation team, to the cafeteria not far away.

As they walked, the Emperor noticed a large sea of flowers planted in a certain area along the way. The flowers had grown to reach the height of an adult’s arm and most of them were pure white. They resembled a sea of clouds.

He then asked Xu Yao, “What kind of flowers are these? You have planted them in such an open and large area.”

“They’re called Yun Si Jin flowers. Le Yao and some of the soldiers planted them a while ago.”

Xu Yao added, “At the beginning, this area was full of weeds. Later, we built the undead dormitory here. Le Yao thought that to prevent this area from being accidentally trampled or used by hover cars as a landing zone, he could plant flowers in the area. Hence, in addition to the prevention of accidental trespassing, this place has also improved and become beautiful.”

“Un. This Xiao Le Yao always has a lot of ideas.”

The Emperor laughed and continued, “It is also quite rare for a couple to have both persons be so compassionate to their subordinates. Ah, I also heard you brought a lot of books with you from Xingdu. Are you planning on building a library here?”

“Yes. We were planning to temporarily send books over because we haven’t yet managed to develop the correct method to send computers and other technological devices to the Underworld while also guaranteeing their functions.”

“That’s a good idea.” The Emperor nodded, “Right, where’s Wan Deqing?”

“We’ve imprisoned him...” Xu Yao paused to glance at Le Feishan. “We’ve imprisoned him in a training ground not far from here. Would you like to see him now?”

“Well. Let’s go.”

Xu Yao led them to the direction of the training ground.

Le Feishan followed behind them impassively and didn’t seem to be even a little bit anxious about the Emperor’s enquiry with regards to Wan Deqing’s whereabouts.

Xu Yao continued to monitor him as he lightly remarked, “Speaking of which, we not only found Wan Deqing, but our people also discovered his wife two days ago.”

“Wan Deqing’s wife?”

“Yes.”

Xu Yao said this while discreetly observing Le Feishan’s expression.

Sure enough, this particular piece of information somewhat agitated the other man, as a noticeable trace of fluster flashed past his eyes.
