Married Life with Major General [Interstellar]

Translator: humu

“I’ll help you untie it?” Ji Feng’s solemn voice travelled over from Moore’s shoulder and his eyes seemed to fall on a certain part somewhere. As if there was a blast of hot wind suddenly blowing, Moore’s brain boiled into a blank state.

“No.” Enduring the pain in his legs, Moore stood with difficulty. Fortunately, the hospital’s bathroom was designed for the patient’s humanity, so Moore could still stand somewhat steadily. “Thank you.” These two words contained a strong meaning of “You can get out now”.

For the final step, he would definitely not give in, even if he was beaten to death. How could he ever lift his head in front of Ji Feng again if he gave in? He must save this last bit of face.

Ji Feng could almost hear the sound of Moore’s harsh breathing, but he could almost understand the personality of this person after a brief amount of interaction with him, so he left without hesitation.

When the bathroom door was opened again, Moore, whose complexion was obviously soothed, slowly walked out using the support of the wall. Ji Feng saw his legs trembling slightly.

Knowing that he was embarrassed, Ji Feng didn’t ask much. He walked directly over to him and carried the person back without fooling around.

From the beginning to the end, all the way up until he was gently placed on the bed, Moore didn’t look at Ji Feng. It was probably because of his first experience in such a situation, or his outlook of life being broken into pieces. Anyway, Moore didn’t struggle this time. 

After lying down, Moore silently turned his head to the side. If he could, he really hoped that every scene that happened just now was a dream, and he had only been lying here without moving.

Compared to Moore, who was ashamed and had lost all face, Ji Feng was better, acting as if nothing had happened. Neither of them spoke and the ward fell silent for a while.

It wasn’t until a long while had passed, that Moore, who was even slower than God, spoke, “You can leave me alone.” The contract did not require Ji Feng to take care of him. Not to mention that in this case, Ji Feng had been in direct contact with him. He really felt…… very uncomfortable.

However, Ji Feng just gave a light “en” and did not make any other actions, nor did he show any intention to leave. Moore even wondered whether Ji Feng had heard what he said.

So Moore turned his head slightly and looked at Ji Feng, who was next to the bed. He noticed that he sat upright again, with his hands on his knees. The most important thing was that his eyes were closed and looked relaxed. The calm look on his face, made it look as if he was asleep.

Moore felt a strange feeling inexplicably rising in his heart, but he didn’t know what was strange.

Ji Feng’s silhouette was tough and handsome, but with his eyes closed, the usual expressionless face made it even more difficult to approach him than normal. It was as if there was an invisible barrier; he could see and touch, but they seemed to be in two different worlds. 

Moore couldn’t help thinking of what Seya had said, that Ji Feng had already paid the medical bill. In actuality, Ji Feng didn’t have much money and they weren’t real husbands. Ji Feng could totally ignore him. Furthermore, even if he paid in advance, he could still claim it from him now, but Ji Feng kept silent.

Smug, lofty, decadent, dispirited, dawdling, idle, indifferent and selfish, a smoker, a drunkard… He seemed to have received a fake document. Otherwise, it was this man who had disguised himself inside out. But how could this be possible?

Moore finally fell asleep in a daze. It was night when he woke up again, and the person sitting next to the bed also changed.

“Elder Brother, why are you here?” Moore raised his brows and was a little puzzled. Didn’t his father forbid his elder brother to help him secretly? Besides, this was not a big problem for him; this injury was not worth mentioning as a soldier. What’s more, he was not so delicate that Elder Brother needed to visit in person because of this matter.

Lieutenant General Rolt sat up straight and there was not much emotion in his eyes when looking at his brother, but it was rather dark.

“I’m here to see how you’re doing,” Rolt said in a deep voice. After a few seconds of pause, he continued, “It won’t be long before I will go to Heduro.” If one couldn’t come back then, one could only say, “Life and death are unpredictable.”

“What?” Moore’s deep blue eyes finally fluctuated, and then sank in darkness. “Heduro’s meteorite hurricane is too intense and even a S-class battleship can be torn to pieces in an instant, not to mention the dangers of the unknown species out there.”

“In the past few years, there have been many warships that have gone and never returned.” Not only their Lopa Star, but many planets have kept secrets about this Devil’s Land. “I don’t understand the reason for your trip there, do you plan to die?” 

Rolt was twelve years older than Moore and had more experience than him. So how could he not know this as a Lieutenant General? He just laughed at himself helplessly and then said with some irony, “The information provided by the Ministry of Energy, said that someone was exploring the depths of Heduro. It’s the fluctuation of the Pyroxene1 that was detected.”

Moore’s brow jumped. Pyroxene could be said to be the most precious and scarce ore in the entire universe. It was extremely hard, resilient and was the toughest of all ores. Hence, when any Mecha or spaceships, warships, and even speed vehicles had a small amount of Pyroxene added into it, their quality would be improved several times, and the level of defense could reach an unprecedented level.

Therefore, Pyroxene had always been scarce and expensive. As long as it was discovered, every planet would attempt to grab it at all cost.

If so, then the trip to Heduro was inevitable.

“But why were you chosen?” It stood to reason that for such an important task, there were definitely a lot of people who were far more suitable than Rolt.

Heduro was like the realm of the devil. No matter how strong the fleet, they would not dare to approach it casually, let alone Rolt who was just a Lieutenant General.

From another selfish point of view, such a probing mission was mostly a cannon fodder’s mission. Rolt was young and promising, he was definitely among the best in the ranks of Lieutenants. Even if he was promoted to General, he would still definitely be the youngest and the most promising. Such a person should not be used as a cannon fodder. Hence, looking at it from a high angle, this decision was also problematic.

Rolt sneered again, “You know, the current military and administrative department are in deep murky waters. Father alone cannot make the final decision. “

“You don’t know this, but 80% of that group of idiots, who only know how to stand and talk nonsense without feeling any backache, were actually in view of letting me go.”

“So many. “Moore’s brows tightened. 

To put it bluntly, this was a suicidal mission. But knowing that Rolt was the Eldest Son of Marshal Houston and to still do this on purpose, he could only say that there was a powerful force behind the decision.

Both brothers knew this. They remained silent for a while. 

After a short silence, Rolt changed the subject, “What about that guy, how are you guys… doing?”

Rolt regretted it as soon as the words left his words. What did he mean by “How was he doing”?! Were the newlyweds happy? Were they unhappy? Does he treat you good or bad? Rolt couldn’t get the words out. His brother had always been extremely strong since young. His personality was cold and he was not good at speaking. Furthermore, he clearly knew that his brother was forced into it, so didn’t it put him in a tight spot to ask this? 

Sure enough, the two brothers entered the state of awkward silence again and Moore really didn’t know how to answer.

Rolt simply got up and said, “I’m going back.”

“En.” Moore responded indifferently. Even if he was worried about his eldest brother, he would not show it. 

Rolt, who was reluctant to leave, walked back to the bed again, with a very embarrassed look on his face. His emotions were tangled and he was hesitant to speak.

“What’s the matter?”

Rolt opened his mouth soundlessly and finally said, “Moore, Rad Nelson is back.” In fact, this was the main reason for Rolt’s visit.

Moore’s deep navy eyes trembled suddenly, like a calm sea suddenly turning violent with raging winds and turbulent waves. It was the fear and hatred from the bottom of the deep sea.

As if there was a lingering shadow engraved in his soul, as long as Moore heard the name, he was unable to control the slight trembles of his body. His hands unconsciously gripped the quilt corner, even though he was now strong enough.

Rolt felt some distress for Moore, but he didn’t come forward to show comfort, as Moore didn’t like contact with people, including family members.

It wasn’t until a while after when Moore recovered his expression. His eyes calmed down a little, and his face became indifferent and calm.

“Wasn’t it thirty years? Why did he come back early?” He agreed that he would not step even a half foot into Lopa Star in thirty years. But at this moment, there were still ten years before the agreed thirty years.

Rolt sighed helplessly and with self-blame, “It is said that the old Imperial King has been in poor health recently. Moreover, Rad is the most respected grandson of the Imperial King.” There was no need for Rolt to say all that, since Moore had already understood.

Moore’s eyes became darker. Finally, he kept silent and didn’t say a single word. Rolt sighed and left the hospital.

On the other hand, Ji Feng, who was on the verge of breaking through, urgently needed to practice meditation, but he couldn’t behave too abnormally. For example, sitting in the same position without eating or drinking for several days in one go. If this were to be exposed, it would cause a problem for him sooner or later.

So he could only practice intermittently. Fortunately, he had experience and was not in a hurry. So the next day, he came to the hospital during meal time.

Moore recovered very quickly. With treatment, he could get out of bed and walk a few steps by the next day. On the fourth day, he was already able to walk slowly. The doctor said that he could be discharged from the hospital, which was exactly what Moore desired.

The two walked out of the hospital one after the other. Moore walked slowly in front and Ji Feng followed slowly behind. Although he walked at a snail’s pace, Moore’s slender figure was taut and straight. His pace also displayed a soldier’s peculiar stability, as if with a little speed, he would be able to bring about a gust of wind.

“Ji Feng?”

Ji Feng was watching Moore and an inexplicably familiar voice suddenly came from behind, directly making him pause in place.

When Ji Feng turned his head, his pupils unconsciously contracted. About three metres away, a man with short chestnut hair was looking at him in surprise. He looked more delicate and beautiful than Ji Feng. His light chestnut eyes were filled with astonishment and some unknown feeling of surprise.

The most important thing was that this man had a big belly, looking completely natural.

For Ji Feng, who had more than 300 years worth of knowledge about “women giving birth”, he had not been able to adapt to this world where Gers gave birth. In his opinion, Gers were exactly the same as men.

Today, it was the first time he looked directly at a pregnant husband with such a close distance, so he couldn’t help himself. Ji Feng’s eyes fell on the pregnant belly, and his expression was even a little sluggish.

At the same time, Moore, who was in the front, turned back towards him, so he clearly saw the focus of Ji Feng’s eyes.

“You… turns out it’s really you.” The pregnant Ger was a little surprised and hesitant.

Ji Feng: …

This should be the so-called ‘dog-blood2’.

He recognised this pregnant Ger and even felt a few degrees of familiarity. This was because he was the original owner’s first love, whom the original owner had been in love with for three whole years, but was abandoned in the end.
