Chapter 26 Part 1 一 The Script Has Finally Come to an End.
Bai Ruogu didn’t say much. He just patted the boy’s shoulder and gave him a smile before walking toward the school gate.
The boy, who was burning incense and praying to the “Grandmaster,” shivered and looked up at Bai Ruogu’s departing figure, feeling an ominous premonition.
He snapped back to reality and quickly resumed his prayer.
“Grandmaster, please bless me! I need to pass my final exams! I’m begging you! There aren’t many apprentices as obedient and respectful as me.”
Bai Ruogu, who hadn’t gone far:…
He~tui!
In fact, the script was nearing its end, and coming to this planet was just a way to wrap things up.
The weather was gloomy the next day, which was quite fitting. The venue had been cleared long ago, and it was almost all crew members.
Everything was set up, but just as they were about to start filming, they heard that the Emperor of this planet had arrived.
They belonged to different empires, so there wasn’t much formality. A polite greeting to the Emperor was all that was required.
The Emperor was seen wearing casual clothes. He appeared to be in his fifties, looking vibrant and well-built.
With a warm smile, he greeted the crew and was curious to see them filming.
“May I stand here and watch for a while?” he asked politely.
This was his territory, so of course it was allowed.
Li Huai quickly instructed the staff to bring a chair, and the final scene was about to be filmed under the Emperor’s watchful gaze.
Hua Xingyuan had studied diligently for a year, and he had finally been admitted to the best military academy in the Interstellar Federation!
Father Hua and Mother Hua were overjoyed, clapping their hands on the table as they asked Hua Xingyuan what kind of reward he wanted.
Hua Xingyuan leaned back in his chair with a confident smirk, tilting his head up with a smug look. He pretended to think deeply, taking his time before he finally spoke.
“I want to be in a relationship.”
Father Hua hadn’t yet reacted, but Mother Hua burst out laughing. She patted Hua Xingyuan on the shoulder and said, “Oh, come on! You’ve had someone in mind for a while. Who are you trying to fool?!”
Father Hua also understood and laughed heartily, “You rascal! Never mind, Dad will give you a set of sky villas and an all-round car. That way, when you get married, you’ll have a place to call home.”
Hua Xingyuan pretended to be embarrassed, nodding his head faster than anyone else.
When Father Hua and Mother Hua were out of sight, he jumped up, holding some kind of list in his hand, and dashed toward the Science and Technology Museum.
He had a house and a car! Now he just needed a job and some savings!!
Wait, he still needed a grand wedding! No worries, he would work hard for it!
He ran excitedly to Star Gazer, just as Eisley was being promoted to the rank of major general. With everyone watching, he ran over and hugged Eisley around the waist, grinning from ear to ear.
Nobody could see him, but that didn’t matter. Soon, everyone would know who he was!
He wanted to become a great person, someone worthy of Eisley.
He worked hard at school, running for class president and student council president. When he was appointed, his eyes sparkled like starlight, and he couldn’t wait to run up to Eisley to tell him all about it.
“Ai,” Hua Xingyuan said, sitting on the steps below the school building. He gazed at the bright moon in the night sky, talking to himself.
“If you’d known how awesome I was, would you have praised me?”
At school, he got hungry and casually bought a few pieces of bread to fill his stomach.
His parents thought he was still the same extravagant young master he used to be, but in fact, he had been frugal for quite some time.
In the moonlight, he looked at the somewhat worn-out shoes on his feet. He hadn’t bought new ones in a long time.
But he wasn’t sad at all because he was saving up to buy a private shuttle. The worse his current circumstances, the happier he was because it meant he could get the private shuttle sooner.
He lay on the ground and stretched, looking at the bright moon, mumbling to himself.
“Eisley, I’ve done so much to see you. If you don’t like me, I’ll… I’ll be so angry I’ll die.”
Time flew by, and Hua Xingyuan grew up watching Eisley become more and more famous. With each victory in battle, Eisley became a national hero, akin to a war god.
Hua Xingyuan, still a student:…
What should I do if the person I like is too incredible, and I might not be able to keep up?
Hua Xingyuan, when he got serious, was quite popular with many people. During his school days, he rejected countless confessions. He arrogantly pointed at them, raised his head, and declared, “You? Could you ever match me, this young master? Hmph!”
“Hua Xingyuan, I noticed your standards are sky-high. Even the top student confessed to you, and you rejected them. What kind of conditions are you waiting for?”
Hua Xingyuan laughed and said, “At least win a few hundred battles before you talk to me.”
“In times of peace, where are you going to find battles to fight?”
“Then don’t even mention it. I can take care of myself, I don’t need romance.”
“You’re really something else…”
Hua Xingyuan specifically set up a trophy room in his new villa, with countless frames displaying the honors he received in school.
“Ahhh! I’m already this outstanding. Shouldn’t we be on the same level by now? Sigh, it still feels impossible.”
As time went by, Eisley lost the playful attitude he had at the beginning and became more mature and experienced.
After effortlessly leading his army to victory, he shed his glory under the gaze of countless onlookers and walked alone by the river, lost in thought as he gazed upon the desolate land.
He lit a cigar without knowing what he was thinking, his gaze deep and intense.
“The war is almost over.”
Hua Xingyuan quietly held Eisley’s hand and nodded at the thought of the gradually subsiding war.
“Yes, it’s almost over. Many lost territories have been reclaimed, and many of their generals have surrendered.”
He leaned on Eisley’s shoulder, muttering, “Graduation is in a month. I planned to take my diploma and come find you to be your deputy… But it’s fine, the war is over, and you can retire in glory and live a good life.”
At that moment, they heard commotion not far away. Both looked in that direction to see many women, children, and elderly people arriving at the army camp.
Countless people embraced each other, tears of excitement streaming down their faces.
These were the families of the soldiers who had somehow found their way there.
The smell of cigars grew stronger. Hua Xingyuan turned to see Eisley taking a deep drag and chuckling quietly, his eyes hidden in shadow.
His steps quickened as he tightened his coat, moving forward without looking back.
Suddenly, Hua Xingyuan remembered that Eisley had no family. He had been alone from childhood to adulthood.
The war had ended, and all the soldiers had returned home to reunite with their families. But where would Eisley go?
Hua Xingyuan felt a sharp pang in his heart. He quickly ran up to Eisley, speaking urgently.
“Wait for me. I’ll have enough money soon. I graduate in a month. I’ll sell my shoes and toys—all my things. That will be enough money, and then I’ll come find you!”
“By then, the war will probably be over, and you’ll have a sweet and outstanding partner. How lucky you’ll be!”
He kept talking, stubbornly holding onto Eisley’s shirt hem and refusing to let go. He followed the man wherever he went as the sun set…
. . . . .
The sun was shining brightly that day, and the military academy was holding its graduation ceremony. Hua Xingyuan, as the student representative, went on stage to give a speech.
After receiving his diploma, he got a call from the delivery company.
“Hello, the jump shuttle you purchased has been delivered to the entrance of the Science and Technology Museum. You can pick it up at any time.”
It had been six years. He had liked that man for six years, and he could finally meet him!
He grabbed his friend Xu Mo and headed to the Science and Technology Museum. He didn’t know how to operate the jump shuttle, but his friend had specialized in it. He was about to see Eisley!
He ran excitedly, his shirt collar undone, nearly dropping his graduation diploma.
He quickly recovered it—this was valuable stuff. As the top graduate, he could choose any position of his rank!
He had made up his mind, he was going to be the ambassador to Eisley’s planet.
He almost burst out laughing, he was finally good enough! After six years of hard work, he was finally worthy of him!
Xu Mo waited outside while he rushed into Star Gazer to find Eisley’s current coordinates.
As he entered, the nation erupted in cheers, bells rang from tall buildings, and people in the square raised their hands in excitement.
“We finally won! We don’t have to fight anymore!”
Everyone was chatting excitedly, and Hu Xingyuan’s mood also improved.
The timing was just perfect.
Why do I have a bad premonition
