contractual marriage

The incident of Qiao Mo's trial had a dramatic ending, and to many people it was like watching a wonderful show, but insiders saw some tricks, such as the relationship between Qiao Mo and Qiao Ling.

At first, I don’t know where the rumor came from, saying that Qiao Mo was the illegitimate son of the head of state. When the news first started to spread, many people scoffed at it. How could there be an illegitimate child in the federation? Only the partner matched by savior could be possible. Give birth to a child, otherwise how could the Federation absolutely support Savior's match?

In fact, this is not absolute, but most of the cases are like this, and the federal people are also used to obeying savior's matching in choosing marriage partners, but who is Qiao Ling?The youngest head of state of the federation so far, since he took office, he has continuously handed over beautiful answers to the federation. His outstanding political achievements are among the best among the federation heads of all generations. At this time, the scandal of an illegitimate child may be maliciously smeared by competitors?

At first, people didn't believe it, and even expected Qiao Ling to come out and give a clear statement, denying this false rumor.But the person involved has remained silent. Although Qiao Ling still appears on the federal news every day, he has not clarified the rumor in private.

Interested people gradually discovered that Qiao Mo and Qiao Ling seemed to be somewhat similar, such as the curvature of the eyes, the shape of the corners of the mouth, and some casual expressions. Discussion, if Qiao Mo is really Qiao Ling's illegitimate son, then what Qiao Enyang did to him before is not so difficult to understand. There are never many such things in big families, don't they often appear in movies?

So, before, they actually watched the grievances and hatreds in the head of state's family?

Discussions were raging on StarNet, but neither the Head of State nor Qiao Mo himself responded to the rumors until His Excellency Lucy Defarran officially visited the Federation.

The Hidaya galaxy and the Federation have been in constant disputes since the first mass destruction of the universe. Although there were a few short periods of peace in the middle, they remained hostile most of the time. The relationship between the empire and the federation is really not good, but this time, His Royal Highness Lucy Defarran’s grand prince unexpectedly asked for a visit. Reminiscent of Saul Defarran’s identity, many people voluntarily Figured out the answer.

Speaking of which, based on the relationship between Captain Qiao Mo and His Royal Highness Saul, the Federation and De Francois are considered to be married. Lucy De Francken's visit in person seems to have represented the great goodwill of De Francia for the release of the Federation. This is great news for both the people and the high-level people of the Federation. The people never want the war to continue, and for the high-level people of the Federation, if the emperor is loose, then Hidaya will no longer be monolithic. , even if there are any problems, they can be broken one by one.

In this way, as the object of marriage with Di Fran, Qiao Mo's status is not enough.

After a night of heated discussions, the people in the military department sent Qiao Mo a promotion order the next day. Qiao Mo changed from a captain to a major.

Qiao Mo was a little emotional when he received the news from the optical brain, he raised his eyebrows, turned his head to the side and said to the serious Sol, "I have worked so hard in the military for so many years to get to the position of captain. My partner suddenly became a school official, it seems that I took advantage of it."

"It's only been three or four years, and your promotion speed is fast enough." For ordinary people, Qiao Mo's promotion to captain in three or four years after graduating from the military academy is enough to prove his excellence. Special treatment?" Qiao Mo laughed, "They transferred me directly to the Outer Seas Fleet."

Sol frowned slightly.

Qiao Mo went on to say, "Although the rank is a major, the position is false. But that's good, it's easier for people to use it when no one touches it." Given that Qiao Mo's identity is sensitive now, the Federation will definitely not let Qiao Mo go. As far as the important position that touches the secrets of the Federation, the Outer Seas Fleet is stationed on the border of the Federation, close to the exile star, and it is also one of the transit stations to the Hidaya galaxy. Treat him as a hot potato, and sending him there as an executive officer seems to have fully considered his status, but the more challenging the place, the more Qiao Mo likes it. Can't wait to get there.

"Lucy DeFrancia will be arriving in the Federation tomorrow. The military department means that after this visit, I will have a big vacation and I will take office next year. What about you, what are your plans?"

"I am with you."

Qiao Mo was surprised by his answer, "You don't plan to go to Defarang?"

Sol shook his head, "There's no need for that at the moment." He paused, and then said, "Lucy DeFrancis will have to toss around for a while, until he's done playing."

Qiao Mo couldn't help laughing, "Are you ready to take over his mess?" Qiao Mo was probably the only one who described the huge Di Fran as a mess, and Sol nodded as well, as if he was very happy. Agree with him.

"The open sea is not far from Typhalan."

"But it's far away from Kunta." Qiao Mo added, moving his lips.

Sol understood what he meant almost immediately, "You don't have to feel guilty, my identity can't be kept hidden forever, sooner or later there will be a day when it will be exposed, but if I say it now, I can prepare in advance and won't be caught off guard."

Sol's tone was flat, but Qiao Mo knew how much he gave up for this. Almost everything that Sol had managed in the past 30 years was destroyed with the disclosure of his identity.

Sol hesitated for a moment, but reached out and stroked Qiao Mo's hair.

"I never regret my decision."

Qiao Mo was taken aback, took a deep look at him, and gave a slight snort, with an ordinary smile on his face, no one knew the momentary emotion in his heart.

A few days later, amidst various speculations and expectations, His Royal Highness Lucy Defarran, the eldest prince of Defarran, arrived at the Federation. His Excellency Qiao Ling brought a group of government officials and military members to greet him. It was Qiao Mo in a white military uniform. Qiao Ling smiled and shook hands with Lucy Defarne. Qiao Mo also had a smile on his face.The historic handshake between Lucy Defarne and Qiao Ling made the headlines of the federal news that day. In the picture, the corners of Qiao Mo's and Qiao Ling's mouths had the same curvature, as if they were vaguely announcing something to the world.

Although no one has explicitly admitted or expressed anything, the eyes of everyone looking at Qiao Mo are different from before. At the reception welcoming Lucy Defarer, Qiao Mo, who always liked to stand on the sidelines, could not resist the attention of others. Enthusiastic, even though he was hiding in a corner, he was caught out to congratulate and toast in turn. Who would have thought that he was still tortured in the dark prison of the Federation half a month ago.

The atmosphere at the welcome banquet was quite warm. Even if the wife of the head of state was absent due to illness, the reception did not lose much of its color. Most people would exchange glances in secret when they heard the news, each with a comprehensible expression, and then continued to walk through the lively crowd with their glasses of wine. middle.

Qiao Mo was given a lot of alcohol, which is quite rare in normal times. As a soldier, he has always been self-disciplined and rarely indulges his desires. He has always kept a respectful distance from alcohol, which is easy to relax. How about the amount of alcohol, and then unknowingly drank a little too much, although the mind is still clear, but the figure is a little shaky, the eyes are also slightly drunk, the whole person looks lazy, such Qiao Mo can not let Few people stared dumbfounded, and he also realized that he might have lost his composure, so he found an excuse and went to the garden to blow a breeze.

Sitting on the bench, Qiao Mo closed his eyes and took a breath until someone approached.

Qiao Mo suddenly opened his eyes, his body tensed reflexively, but when he saw the person coming, he was slightly surprised for a moment, and his expression became complicated.

"Long time no see." He said softly, as gentle as ever.

Liu Wanxin smiled bitterly, "Long time no see."

"You look fine."

"You too."

Then there was a long silence.

During the days when Qiao Mo and Liu Wanxin were together, they didn't talk too much, but it wasn't like now that they couldn't even find a topic and could only be silent in embarrassment.

"You...how did you marry Colonel Lan?" After a long pause, Liu Wanxin seemed to muster up the courage to ask.

"I thought you were dead when you were in the First Fleet." Qiao Mo was very calm.

There was hope in Liu Wanxin's eyes, "Then, if I hadn't died, wouldn't you have chosen..."

Qiao Mo interrupted her and said with a helpless smile, "Some results may be predetermined."

The light in Liu Wanxin's eyes suddenly dimmed.

Qiao Mo smiled softly, "Wanxin, you have your concerns and responsibilities, and so do I." And no one is willing to compromise, which means that it is impossible for two people to get together, at least now Qiao Mo can be sure, His feelings towards Saul are completely different from those he had towards Liu Wanxin.

"You're right." Liu Wanxin shook her head helplessly, "I shouldn't bother you anymore, let the past go." Liu Wanxin pinched one side of the long skirt tightly, and the smooth fabric was almost pulled out of its folds by her , without waiting for Qiao Mo to say anything, she turned and left, but her pace was not as calm as when she came.

Qiao Mo looked at her back with calm eyes, until someone appeared in his sight.

He raised his eyes slightly, "How long have you been here?"

Saul came and sat beside him, "Before she came."

"Then why didn't you make a sound?" Qiao Mo laughed.

"I thought you guys had something to say." Saul glanced at him lightly.

Qiao Mo laughed softly, because of the unconscious stiffness in his words.

"We probably have nothing to talk about." Qiao Mo paused, "At first I thought I was very sad when she died, but I almost forgot about that feeling very quickly. In fact... I am probably cold-blooded in nature." Qiao Mo It was rare for him to say something about analyzing himself, and even he himself was slightly surprised after speaking. "I seem to have drunk too much." He rubbed his forehead, "Hey, let me lean on you." After finishing speaking, Sol leaned on his shoulder without waiting for an answer.

"I know." Sol suddenly said, not knowing what he said in response.

"Qiao Mo." Saul called him.

"Huh?" Qiao Mo raised his head slightly.

Sol found that Qiao Mo was indeed a little drunk, and the eyes of the usually sober man were a little hazy at this time, but it was unbearable...

He simply followed his heart and kissed her. Qiao Mo was a little surprised, but he didn't refuse.

First, the lips were rubbed against each other slightly, and only when the feeling was enough did they start to deepen. Qiao Mo was slightly drunk, and this kiss was even more gentle and soothing than before.

The two sat side by side on the bench, shoulder to shoulder, kissing slowly.But in a direction that Qiao Mo couldn't see, Sol opened his eyes and looked directly at Liu Wanxin who was standing in the distance with a pale face. The coldness and sharpness in his eyes made Liu Wanxin cover his chest at once, and turned around in a panic. body.

Seeing that she had really left, Sol's eyes slowly calmed down.

Qiao Mo leaned on his shoulder with closed eyes and smiled lightly, "Enough?"

Sol was not afraid to admit it, and responded calmly, as if he wasn't the one who 'scared' away his love rival with that 'despicable' gesture, even though this woman was his fiancée back then.

"There has never been anyone who owes anyone between you and her. She made her own choice and of course she is responsible for herself."

Qiao Mo didn't speak again, but silence is not a kind of default?

Lucy DeFrancis Zhouxuan won the favor of many people with his excellent demeanor and elegant posture in the welcome banquet specially prepared for him by the Federation. He was the absolute protagonist in the banquet. Compared with him, His Excellency Qiao Ling On the other hand, he is more mature and wise. The way the two of them talked and laughed at Yan Yan attracted many people to watch. Many people have already begun to calculate the gains and losses after the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Federation and Di Fran.

Compared with the lively venue of the welcome meeting, the He family mansion is extremely deserted and quiet, only He Ru's room is still lit, a woman in a sexy dress is sitting on a sofa chair, with a cigarette between her fingers, The cigarette butt glowed in the darkness, reflecting the twisted face of the woman.

She suddenly pushed down the crystal lamp standing on the table, and the fragile crystal fell to the floor and fell apart.

He Ru trampled on the debris with his high-heeled feet.

There was a screeching sound as the debris rubbed against the floor.

He Ru's expression became even more distorted.

Qiao Ling... Qiao Ling... He actually revealed Qiao Mo's identity himself, this sinister, cunning, hateful, damned man.

He Ru first laughed a few times, then covered half of his face with his hand holding the cigarette, and laughed even louder.

The sound of her laughter echoed throughout the room, making it even more pervasive in the extremely quiet environment.

She threw away the burnt cigarette butt, picked up the communicator and pressed a few numbers.

Soon, the communicator was connected, and Qiao Endong in a hospital gown appeared on the other side of the screen.

He Ru leaned on the sofa, her red lips were pursed, and her eyes were full of smiles. She stared carefully at her handsome and tough eldest son, and said slowly in a soft voice: "Endong, you are really mine!" Good son."

The place Qiao Endong was in seemed to be a hospital. Although he was wearing a hospital gown, the determination on his face remained undiminished. He faced He Ru and called out, "Mother."

"You still recognize me as a mother?" He Ru laughed.

"No matter what, you are my mother."

"Mother? What an unfamiliar name, you didn't call it that before." He Ru seemed to be sighing in his heart, and looked at Qiao Endong with a hint of memory in his eyes. "When you were young..." He Ru compared the height with his hands, "When you were so young, you would chase after me and call you mom." She smiled with her lips curved.

Jon Dong lowered his eyes.

"You were so obedient back then." He Ru looked at Qiao Endong on the other side of the screen, his eyes began to overflow with disappointment, "But why has it changed now? When did you become like this? Why didn't you listen to your mother?"

"I've never changed, it's you who changed." Qiao Endong was silent for a few seconds before opening his mouth.

He Ru's expression suddenly turned cold, and his icy gaze almost penetrated the screen.

"Son, isn't everything I do for you?

Whether it's Qiao Enyang or Qiao Mo, they will become stumbling blocks for you to move forward. I just eliminated them for you in advance. If you don't help me, it's fine, but you still stand on the side of outsiders and help them deal with me together. En Dong, how can you be sorry I? "

"They're my brothers. They're my family."

"Shut up." He Ru interrupted him, her face seemed to be full of hatred, "They are not your younger brothers, I only have your son."

"It's useless for you to deny it. The blood relationship between Qiao Mo and me cannot be denied. As for Enyang, he was born by you."

He Ru's face became extremely ugly, and she stared at Qiao Endong with a sneer.

"Have you made up your mind to stand by Qiao Ling? Help them deal with your mother?"

"I don't understand why you're targeting them and the father."

"Qiao Ling is not worthy!" He Ru emphasized his tone, "He is not worthy to be your father, you are my son, my son alone."

"It doesn't make sense. Enyang's fault is the result of your connivance. While you hate him, you use him to do so many things. I know...but I didn't stop it immediately. I am sorry for him, but mother, I don't want to let You also continue to make mistakes, if you insist on doing this, I will stand by my father, no matter what you think."

When He Ru heard what he said, she laughed loudly, as if she was insane, but she recovered her elegance in a short time.

"Silly son, your father will not win, he will lose miserably, lose nothing, and pay the price for his mistakes over the past few decades. At that time, you will know how outrageous your cognition is, it doesn't matter , when that time comes, mother will teach you slowly."

Before Qiao Endong could continue, He Ru hung up the communication. Qiao Endong faced the black screen and remained silent for a long time. After thinking about it with a sullen face, he still dialed the communication to Qiao Ling.

Qiao Ling, who was in the banquet hall, found an excuse to leave and went to the lounge prepared for the guests.

"whats the matter?"

Qiao Endong hesitated again and again, and said, "My mother just sent a message. I think she is not in a good state of mind. It seems... I don't know what she will do next. I hope you can be prepared."

"I see." Qiao Ling nodded, "You can rest at ease over there, and I will let you know if there is anything."

"I understand, it's just Enyang's side, father..." Qiao Endong seldom hesitated to speak, but he didn't know what to say to his younger brother who had made many mistakes. Qiao Endong actually couldn't bear such an end, but there was nothing he could do about it. He hoped that his father could take care of Qiao Enyang more, but he also knew that this was also difficult for others, so he didn't know how to speak.

"I won't meddle in his affairs again."

The implication is that no matter what Qiao Enyang becomes in the future, Qiao Ling will not care about it anymore.

Qiao Endong sighed slightly, "I understand." He couldn't find an excuse for what Qiao Enyang had done, but he was angry at his mother for treating Qiao Enyang like this, even though...even if Qiao Enyang is not his father's son, he is still his own brother, Everything his mother did made Qiao Endong completely disappointed.

The He family's secret calculations have not been hidden from Qiao Ling, and Qiao Endong doesn't want to help anyone now, he just feels extremely tired.

"I will keep an eye on my mother, but she no longer believes in me, and I'm afraid there will be no more definite news." Qiao Endong's voice was full of exhaustion and helplessness.

Qiao Ling's eyes were a little moved, and he sighed slightly, "You don't need to do anything else, just take a good rest."

Qiao Endong smiled bitterly, "Dad, this matter will end soon, right?"

"Yes, it will all be over soon, I promise."
