MTL - I Heard That I Am a Scumbag, God of War Alpha-Chapter 40 Bar mitzvah
The next day, Chen E really brought something back.
There's a pair of dainty little laser weapons that look like bracers.
In the training ground under the major general's house, Chen E patiently taught Zhuang Yan how to use his fingerprint to activate, and then how to launch an attack.
"Whoever dares to hurt you, you just fight back like this. This one looks small, but its power is very high. Once it is turned on, even I can only hide and can't get close to you. Have you learned it?"
Zhuang Yan raised his eyes.
"Learned."
Chen E's selection of self-defense weapons only valued the actual combat value, and he was used to comparing his own combat effectiveness.
At the end of the study, Zhuang Yan finally felt that he was actually stuffed with self-defense equipment that could fight against the mighty Alpha.
He half-truthfully said: "Chen E, you can't bully me casually in the future."
"Then you come and bully me."
Zhuang Yan's cheeks burned instantly, and even his eyelids began to flush. He looked up at Chen E, but Alpha looked away unnaturally, his earlobe was bloodshot.
After two or three seconds.
Chen E turned around, and asked Zhuang Yan to close his eyes in a vicious voice.
The thick and slender eyelashes trembled, and the pretty boy closed his eyes obediently. The heat fell on the corner of the eye, and it was a kiss as light as a feather.
On the contrary, Chen E himself, who offered to kiss, was breathing wet and short.
Chen E rubbed Omega's earlobe, brushed the end of Zhuang Yan's hair with hot fingertips, and combed it like a smooth hair.
"Xiao Yan." His voice was stagnant.
Zhuang Yan asked: "What's wrong?"
"I didn't treat you like this because I was marked."
It's because I like it.
But these two words are very heavy, once said, it seems that even the sincerity is also presented to Zhuang Yan.
Chen E is a hedgehog. He is willing to believe in Zhuang Yan, but he doesn't believe that he can get long-term and unreserved love.
The necklaces that Zhuang Yan doesn't accept can be thrown away, and the unwanted planets can be put there. But if Zhuang Yan doesn't even intend to accept his sincerity in the future, how humble it would be.
Zhuang Yan always felt that he still had nothing to say, but after waiting for a long time, Chen E took him out of the training ground and came to the elevator.
Alpha's side face was tense, as if he didn't intend to speak again.
Although the momentum was very fierce, but when Zhuang Yan scratched his palm with his fingertips, Chen E lowered his head slightly.
Zhuang Yan asked him: "Is there a job later?"
"Have."
"Then can I go to the study with you?"
Chen E: "Yes."
The study room was replaced with a large enough table, and Zhuang Yan spread the optical computer, materials and manuscript paper on the other side.
Chen E doesn't need a meeting for the time being, only documents and emails need to be processed. He only takes up a small space, leaving everything else for Zhuang Yan.
Both of them are very quiet when they are busy.
The only sound in the room was the rubbing of paper and pen nibs.
After Zhuang Yan finished several partial designs, he began to fiddle with the model on the optical brain with a serious face.
But it may be that there was a mistake in the calculation. As soon as the variable speed field was placed, it began to interfere with each other, and even collapsed and annihilated.
He frowned, put the previous manuscript aside, and decided to try another algorithm.
Chen E stood up from across the table with a light brain.
"I'm going to make a phone call."
Zhuang Yan's mind was full of numbers and structures, and he nodded after a long time.
Chen E was not angry, but just touched the top of Zhuang Yan lightly when he passed by Zhuang Yan.
Omega's hair is black and soft, and his eyes are a little blunt, like a little animal in a daze.
He obviously didn't react, and he still used a nasal voice to express his doubts, meaning, what's wrong?
"It's okay." Chen E said.
He strode out and helped Zhuang Yan close the door.
The room suddenly became quiet again. Zhuang Yan glanced at the new algorithm, substituted the numbers, and after obtaining different data, continued to improve the model in hand.
I don't know how long it has passed, but Chen E hasn't come back yet.
The design draft of a whole module has just been finalized, so Zhuang Yan puts his thoughts aside first, and releases the Do Not Disturb mode of the optical brain to see if he has received any new information.
The top few entries are all Chen E's.
"Go back to the military headquarters temporarily."
"That notification has been approved for internal distribution and will be copied to the Ministry of Defense immediately."
My brother is now in the Ministry of Defense.
Zhuang Yan sighed, knowing that he was about to retell to Zhuang Jin what he told Chen E yesterday.
...I hope my brother can cooperate a little bit!
Don't take up too much time and interrupt yourself to study.
My brother's call came faster than expected.
On the other side of the camera, Zhuang Jin rarely showed a serious and urgent expression: "Xiao Yan, are you at Chen E's place? I'll look for you, and I'll be there in ten minutes."
Zhuang Jin has always been a tired and inattentive person, only when it comes to his younger brother's affairs, he occasionally loses his composure in such a hurry.
Zhuang Yan put down his optical brain, and suddenly realized that the owner of the house, Chen E, is not here, and neither 408 nor himself has authority.
—Even if Zhuang Jin came, he couldn't get in.
He quickly found a small garden with a gazebo where he could sit casually, and sent the address to Zhuang Jin.
Zhuang Jin replied: .
It took a while to pack myself before going out, and I had to walk over. When he was about to arrive, he realized that Zhuang Jin had already arrived.
The car was parked on the side of the road, and the person was leaning against the pillars of the gazebo, smoking silently outside.
"Brother." Zhuang Yan walked over.
Zhuang Jin waved his hand unnaturally, and pointed to the seat on the other side.
"Go and sit over there, I'll come over after I finish smoking this one."
That's what he said, but Zhuang Jin snuffed out the cigarette **** and threw it into the trash can.
The corner of the clothes smelled of tar, Zhuang Jin approached but didn't sit down.
He lowered his eyelids to look at Zhuang Yan, from head to toe, as if he was looking to see if it was his younger brother with all beards and tails.
Zhuang Yan had no choice but to raise his hand and say, "It's me, brother."
Zhuang Jin's tone was stiff: "Do you know what I want to ask you?"
Zhuang Yan hummed.
"So that's true?"
Zhuang Yan nodded.
"Chen E told you first?"
Zhuang Yan: "I just said it yesterday."
After a while, Zhuang Jin turned his face away, showing a toothache-like expression.
Since the elder brother was unwilling to speak, Zhuang Yan had no choice but to explain the matter again in a meek and good-tempered manner.
He didn't deliberately exaggerate, but the sadness at the beginning was real. Lying alone and quietly in the hospital, watching the counterfeit smile falsely at his relatives.
After being discharged from the hospital, the counterfeit made every effort to move out.
He took advantage of the unequal information gap between the two parties to deliberately create a gap between himself and Zhuang Yan's family. In the so-called rebellious period, his personality was unstable, and he tried to lean on that side for all possible excuses.
One year, the extremely sad Ning Huabi said, "Xiao Yan, you seem to be a different person now."
The counterfeit snickered.
With Zhuang Yan's face and Zhuang Yan's tone, he raised his eyes mockingly.
"Mom, how can I change people? I've always been here."
"Have you and your brother watched too many messy novels and holographic dramas? How could such a thing happen in real life?"
Zhuang Jin interrupted: "...that's it."
He also had a toothache-like expression, and his face was very smelly. Turn on the optical computer and glance at the records, then turn the screen over and ask Zhuang Yan.
"You came back last September?"
"Ok."
"Do you know where the counterfeit went? Is it still in this world?"
Zhuang Yan hesitated and shook his head.
"I don't know, it's not in my body anyway."
The corners of Zhuang Jin's eyes and mouth were drooping down, looking as if he was uncomfortable, but also as if he was extremely annoyed.
"You are a fool, Zhuang Yan. From September last year to now, let your brother misunderstand you like this? It wasn't something you did yourself. Why do you admit it?"
Zhuang Yan looked at the ground, but didn't ask if his brother would believe him.
He said: "When you were lying in the hospital, I didn't have a chance to see you."
"..."
"Sorry."
Eighteen-year-old Zhuang Yan has clean eyebrows and pupils as clear as water.
—Because of liking and caring, I first bowed my head and begged for peace.
Zhuang Jin hesitated for a moment.
In recent years, consciously or unconsciously, he has always treated Zhuang Yan with an awkward and indifferent attitude. He is cunning and evil-hearted, and he counts pennies and pennies. As long as Zhuang Yan didn't make a satisfactory apology, he wouldn't take another look at his brother.
But in the end, who is the elder brother?
Now looking at the distance less than half a meter away, Zhuang Jin was in a daze for a moment, recalling the trajectory of Zhuang Yan's slow growth in the past eighteen years like a revolving lantern.
At the beginning, he was still a milk dumpling who couldn't even speak, a stubborn child who stumbled.
Gradually grow taller, shed childishness and become a beautiful boy with exquisite features, and now the youthful appearance of Zhilan Yushu.
In fact, my younger brother was a little sun full of warmth and energy when he was very young.
And now, Zhuang Yan has finally come of age.
Real adulthood does not depend on whether a person has reached the age of eighteen or whether he has taken an oath in a ceremony.
It's about making decisions, taking responsibility, and moving forward.
Zhuang Jin knew from a young age that he should mature, pamper and protect Zhuang Yan.
It wasn't until today that he suddenly realized that he was being pampered by his younger brother instead.
The coming-of-age ceremony of Zhuang Yan happened when no one knew it. This process is too lonely, painful and long, like a butterfly tearing a thick cocoon with its weak wings.
He is such a good brother, why should he go through this.
Zhuang Jin stared at him: "Are you afraid, Xiaoyan?"
"I'm not afraid now." Zhuang Yan said.
The sky in the distance darkened little by little, and the setting sun fell on Zhuang Yan's eyelashes.
He wears a necklace around his neck, and a laser weapon made into a wristband can be seen from the cuffs. There may be other things on his body for self-defense, almost armed to the teeth.
Zhuang Jin just came out of the Ministry of Defense, how could he not recognize the new weapons developed by the Ministry of Defense.
One look, and he fell silent. Then I thought sourly, it seems that there is really nothing to be afraid of.
"...This is all given by Chen E?"
Zhuang Yan nodded obediently.
"You live in his house every day?"
Zhuang Yan said: "It's not every day. If I have classes in the morning, I will go back to the school dormitory."
Zhuang Jin remained silent.
No matter what you say now, you have lost the righteous and confident position of your brother. He is not as good as an outsider to Xiao Yan, where is the face to persuade him?
Mainly blame myself for being awkward for too long.
Two or three seconds later, Zhuang Jin said, "Forget it, I plan to move back home next week."
"Do you need help?"
Zhuang Jin raised his eyelids: "Don't you still have a competition in hand? There is no need, I can do it myself."
The younger brother hummed obediently.
"Xiao Yan," Zhuang Jin turned his head sullenly and called him, "If I can get in touch with my mother, I will tell her about it. At that time, you should go home a few more times."
"..."
"The family has not been popular for a long time now."
Zhuang Yan said softly: "Okay."
"I'm sorry." Zhuang Jin said again.
He faded away from his usual carefree expression, and his expression was very serious, but very gentle.
"My brother apologizes to you, forgive me, okay?"
