The whole empire is bringing us together

Soon it was time for the banquet to start, and Connor had to accompany Hanselton to speak, nodding to the myopia who followed behind him to protect him, and left the terrace with Quint.

The lights in the banquet hall were dimmed slowly, and the spotlight was on the built-in semicircular platform on the second floor. Hanselton and Connor walked up the circular staircase arm in arm, because it was a purely social banquet, and Hanselton Just thanked the guests who came as usual, and didn't say too much.

Relying on the intuition brought by the mark, Quint found Hyperion in the crowd, quietly stood beside him, Quint relaxed his palms, and let Hyperion interlock his fingers.

Hyperion rubbed the ring on Quint's ring finger with his thumb, and listened carefully to Hanselton's speech. The nature of a soldier made him not distracted when his superiors were talking, and Quint had heard these words countless times. He seemed to be focused, but his mind was still on what Connor said.

He was worried about Hyperion's illness again, not for the sake of giving birth to a child as soon as possible, but because he wanted his lover to suffer less and return to the sea of ​​stars that he longed for as soon as possible.

He doesn't have much obsession with his children. He has spent 20 years alone, and he has long been used to being alone. It is already the happiest thing in his life that Hyperion can come back to him. What else can he expect? Woolen cloth?

Hanselton’s speech on the stage came to an end. After the applause completely subsided, he did not continue to leave. Instead, he slightly raised the hand that he shook with Connor, looked at him with a smile, and said: "Everyone, I There is good news to announce—"

"In the 21 years since I came to the throne, the Queen has always been by my side and assisted me wholeheartedly. No matter what kind of difficulties I faced, she would never leave. She even fell to the root of her illness in order to save me, and it was difficult to conceive again. I think everyone understands."

"No matter what their intentions are, many people have a good relationship with me because of their power. Since then, they have been asking me to take a concubine as soon as possible and give birth to an heir as soon as possible. I have never agreed.

"Finally, the heaven pays off, and sincere feelings will not be abandoned by God after all. I, Hansenton Beschmidt, hereby solemnly announce that the empire is about to usher in its future heir!"

After the voice fell, Hanselton glanced across the faces of the audience, and successfully caught a few flashes of loss and indignation among the many joyful faces, and smiled secretly.

In the thunderous applause, he knelt down on one knee in front of everyone and kissed Connor's slightly protruding belly.Connor smiled in surprise, gently stroked Alpha's side face with his palm, and whispered: "Why didn't you tell me in advance? It made me unprepared."

But Hyperion definitely wants it. Don’t all Alphas wish they could have children?Looking at Hanselton's face that was not hiding his happiness on the stage, Quint pursed his lips tightly.If in the future, he meant if, in the future, they really worry about whether they can have a normal child, will Hyperion feel disappointed?

Hyperion didn't notice what was going on in Kunt's mind. He applauded sincerely for his friend's success, turned his head to look at Quint, paused when he noticed the haze in his eyes, and asked softly: " What's wrong?"

Quint shook his head, and hurriedly showed him a pure smile.

Hanselton stood up, nodded to the crowd who were still applauding, wrapped his arms around Connor's waist, and walked towards the backstage covered by heavy curtains, his tone was gentle only when facing Connor: "I want to surprise you."

"I'm an old couple, and I still do this." Connor hooked Hanselton's neck, kissed the corner of his lips, and blew lightly in his ear, deliberately suppressing his voice: "Tonight Drink less wine, come back early, and wait for you until twelve o'clock."

The lights did not turn on again, but the first dance of the banquet began. The curtains on both sides of the hall opened, revealing the orchestra that had already been prepared there, and the first string of notes slowly flowed out from the strings of the violin.

Hyperion led Quint into the dance floor, and the two stood facing each other with their hands clasped.

"Don't step on me today." Quint whispered into his blue eyes.

Hyperion moved his fingers dishonestly around his waist, and there seemed to be little sincerity in his chuckle: "I promise not."

The two danced slowly. When he was young, Hyperion embraced all kinds of dance partners like this. The delicate Omega like a flower or the beautiful Beta were all the darlings of heaven without exception.But when he was 21 years old, he met the young man who was stopped by him to ask for directions. From then on, everything he saw was eclipsed in his eyes, only that one person was always as beautiful as a flower.

"Not paying attention again." The hand on Hyperion's back tapped, and Quint stepped on his foot suddenly, touching his nose with the tip of his nose: "What are you thinking about?"

"Miss you." Hyperion bowed his head and kissed Quint's forehead. After these days of special training, he finally regained his original feeling, and became the most popular Master Morse at the ball back then.

Many people were watching them secretly, with searching, disappointed, and unwillingness in their eyes.Hyperion didn’t know what those people were thinking, and he didn’t want to know. All the daughters and young masters who liked him when they were teenagers were all married. What made Hyperion laugh the most was that after he came back, there were still many children among their children. Less want to pester him.

Quint was also aware of this, so he couldn't help laughing at Hyperion as a serious disaster, rather than letting Hyperion delay those pregnant children, he might as well sacrifice himself and take them in.

Hansendon missed them with his arms around Connor, and Connor playfully sent Quint a Wink.After a while, Hyperion saw his parents circling past them, and Mrs. Morse smiled at him, her eyes fixed on Quint, who was unaware of this.

Quint followed his gaze and asked, "What's wrong?"

Hyperion turned back, stared into Quint's amber eyes, and said softly, "My parents."

Quint immediately became nervous, even the hands he held with Hyperion unconsciously tightened a little, his eyes kept sweeping over there: "Where is it?"

"It's already far away, don't be nervous." Hyperian laughed: "If you see them later, don't be nervous, my family will be fine."

Hyperion and Quint walked out of the dance floor to take a break after five or six tunes in a row, and took their meals with small plates.The music became faster as it got closer to the back, and replaced by a frenzied rhythm. People who couldn't keep up stepped back one after another and stood aside. In the end, only a dazzling red dress was left in the middle of the dance floor.

With a heroic shaking of the head, the silver headgear was thrown out, and the female Omega's blond hair, which was neatly tied at the back of her head, spread out and brought a burst of fragrance. The man held her waist tightly to prevent her from being thrown away.

That was Liz Morse and her husband Christian. Liz, who was born as a child star, learned to dance since she was a child in order to cultivate her temperament. Naturally, she is very good.She fluttered like a butterfly on the huge dance floor, giving all her trust to Christian who was holding her tightly.

During the dazzling spin, Liz saw Hyperion on the side, and she didn't forget to blow a kiss to her brother.

With the final sound of smooth portamento, the dance music finally came to an end. Amid the applause, Liz bowed her head to the crowd, dragging the hem of her skirt, and then dragged her husband, who was obviously relieved, to Hyperion.

"Brother." After skipping such an intense dance, Liz was only slightly out of breath. She smiled brightly at Quint and said generously, "Good evening, chief, but should I call you sister-in-law now?" ?”

Quint pinched Hyperion covertly with the hand behind him, and said with a smile, "Not yet, if you don't mind, just call me bro."

Liz readily agreed, and she patted the arm of the male Alpha next to her, and said in disgust: "You don't even know how to say hello when you see my brother?"

Christian waved his hand, and smiled apologetically at Hyperion with a pale complexion, afraid that he would spit it out when he opened his mouth, obviously he hadn't recovered from the dizziness of the high-speed rotation.He is one of the most famous directors in the Empire today. He usually drinks big tea and yells at others on the set, and rarely engages in strenuous physical activities, let alone such a death spin with Liz.

Hyperion hooked Le's lips with his brother-in-law's expression, and said, "I saw my parents are here too, where is Monica? Are you at home alone?"

"I went to her little boyfriend's house to do my homework." Liz replied, seeing that Quent thoughtfully took a glass of ice water from the side and handed it to Christian who was feeling sick, she couldn't help but wowed: "Brother, you usually Is it such a blessing? Why can't I meet such an obedient and sensible person. "

Christian thanked Quint, just took a sip, and was furious when he heard the words, and quickly swallowed the ice water in his mouth: "Nonsense! Am I not?"

The four of them chatted for a few more words. Liz felt hungry, so she greeted Hyperion and the other two, and took her husband to eat.Quint really likes this bright girl—although she probably isn't old enough to be called a girl now.

Quint first met Liz at Hyperion’s house more than 20 years ago. At that time, he was pressed on the sofa and kissed by Hyperion. After waiting for two seconds to react, he yelled "Sorry!" and was about to sneak upstairs to his room.

"Stop." Hyperion stood up and called her to stop, straightened Quint's messy collar, pulled him and introduced Liz with a serious face: "This is when I was training at Omega Academy. Classmate, Quint Percy, and your future sister-in-law."

"Hi sister-in-law!" Liz stood on the stairs and bowed deeply to Kunt reflexively. Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration and said, "Brother, wait a moment! I'll go back to the room and send you something fun!"

Half a minute later, Hyperion received Liz's file transmission. He and Quint huddled together on the sofa, a little curious about what his sister sent nervously.

After opening it, he saw more than a dozen video covers of the main character sitting on a desk or podium with his legs crossed and his clothes half exposed.

Thinking of this, Quent laughed aloud, looked at Shanghai Bolian's searching gaze, and said, "Your family is really interesting."

Hyperion pinched his nose affectionately, and said softly:

"It will be your family in the future."
