Chapter 120
120. The Gay Little Prince, Part 9
"Colonel, there’s a problem!" A mech soldier of the First Corps ran into the main control room and spoke to Ludwig.
After the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p of the First Corps landed at the capital star, Ludwig immediately contacted the military department to report a few things and had just finished his work now.
Ludwig was packing up his things and about to go find Gary when he was informed that there was a problem. He frowned, "What happened? If it’s not serious, you just let Archie deal with it. I have something to do."
It was said that their family and the imperial family used to be very close, but since his father’s mother plotted an imperial kidnapping case, their family and the imperial family were no longer close, to the extent that he could not follow Gary to Gary’s house and could only think of a way to be welcomed to visit by Gary’s family before he could go meet the other party.
"Colonel, it's your business . . . . You go check the star network, okay. Now everyone’s saying that Gary’s shameless." The mech soldier said.
In fact, there were also people in the First Corps who were dissatisfied with Gary. They felt that Gary was undeserving of Ludwig treating him so well . . . . However, Gary had helped him repair his mech, so he was full of goodwill towards Gary.
Although Gary was not as good as Ludwig, he was also not bad, ah. Not only was he strong, he could repair mechs too!
"What?" Hearing that the matter was related to Gary, Ludwig was highly attentive at once.
"There’s a group of reporters surrounding Gary outside." The mech soldier said again.
"I'll take a look!" Ludwig ran out without hesitation.
At this moment, Gary, who was almost angered by the reporters, was smiling. "I won't admit things I haven't done. Haven't you already called the police? Then wait for the police to come to process these things!"
"Mr. Gary, are you and Colonel Ludwig really lovers? How did you make Colonel Ludwig like you?" There was a reporter holding a microphone asking Gary questions, and the microphone was about to hit Gary's nose!
Ludwig saw this scene as soon as he came out, and he promptly rushed forward to pull Gary behind him and questioned the reporters, "What do you think you’re doing?!"
"Colonel Mund!"
"Colonel Ludwig!" The reporters were very excited when they saw Ludwig. They were still thinking that the s.e.x scandal between Gary and Ludwig might be fake and did not expect Ludwig to appear in a blink of an eye and even make a protective gesture towards Gary.
Ludwig really had a relations.h.i.+p with this Gary?
"Colonel Mund, may I ask if you and Major Gary are in a romantic relations.h.i.+p?"
"Colonel Mund, are you aware of Major Gary’s true colors?"
"Excuse me, what do you think of Major Gary's attempt to kill a sub-beastman? The military department hasn’t disciplined Major Gary. Does it have something to do with you?"
. . . . . .
Thanks to Emir, everyone now had seen the video of Gary trying to "kill" Emir, and they all disliked Gary even more.
"Nonsense! With Gary's strength, wanting to kill a sub-beastman amidst the marching ants is simply too easy. What’s the use for him to be so bothersome and even leave a handle?" Ludwig said coldly. "You’re slandering him! I’ll hold you accountable!"
When Gary said so before, these reporters did not take it seriously at all, but Ludwig saying so actually made them much more restrained. After all, if they really provoked the anger of the two dukes behind Ludwig, they were afraid that they would have to take the consequences.
"If you have any questions, someone will explain to you in a moment. I’ll also have someone post the surveillance video of that time online. When the moment comes, I believe that the mud thrown at Gary will definitely be washed clean. As for now, please let me through. I have to go!" Ludwig added. He made a gesture, and several men immediately came up and surrounded him and Gary and then led them out.
Gary finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time and had time to pay attention to things around him.
Emir and a few of Green's subordinates were being surrounded by several reporters at the moment and probably talking bad things about him. And Green was actually nearby.
Green kept saying that he loved him and wanted his forgiveness. Yet at this moment, he stood so far away, unwilling to help him to explain.
Gary's eyes were full of irony, and when their gazes met, Green moved his line of sight away a little embarra.s.sedly. He originally wanted to help Gary to explain just now, but he soon reasoned that if Gary ran into troubles, Ludwig might not want to be with him, and he could pursue Gary again, so he hesitated.
This hesitation made it already too late for him, even if he wanted to go over.
Green was feeling a little regretful when he suddenly heard a very familiar voice. He raised his head and unexpectedly saw his father and mother come together.
As soon as his father and mother came, they went straight to Gary, and his mother shouted, "Gary, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d, relying on my son to become a major and swindling my son’s money, and now you want to run away? How can there be such a thing as a free lunch?"
Gary had met Green’s parents once. At that time, these two people were very unfriendly to him. He did not want to look at their faces, so he quickly found a reason to leave and had never seen them again afterwards. He did not expect to actually see them again today.
"You give me a little respect!" Ludwig once again stood guard in front of Gary.
"Colonel Mund, don't be deceived by this man! He’s a beastman who entangles other beastmen all day long. He’s not a good person at all." Green's father also spoke. His appearance was quite dignified, and he also made no secret of his contempt for Gary.
"When did Gary entangle others? And it’s even more unlikely for him to swindle money. It’s obviously your son who gave Gary money to repair the mech. How did it become Gary swindling money?" Ludwig was already angry and also felt very sorry for Gary. What kind of family Gary had run into, ah! If he had known earlier that this Green was so unbearable, he would have already . . . . Well, he could not do anything at that time . . . .
Ludwig was extremely depressed. Green's parents, however, did not believe his words at all.
Their son did very well in the military. As a result, most of his money was given to Gary, which had long made them dissatisfied. "It requires so much money to repair a mech? This is just an excuse!"
"Father, Gary really helped me repair my mech." Green stood up this time. His parents actually showed up . . . . If this continued, Gary would really never forgive him!
"Where’s the mech?" Green's father asked.
Gary and Ludwig turned towards Green when they heard the words. After they explained it clearly back then, they returned Green's old mech to him—they certainly didn’t want to keep other people's things!
Green's face turned white. The mech was taken away by Emir! Everything today was planned by Emir; he was well aware of this fact. And since his old mech had been taken away by Emir, it must have been dealt with by him.
Emir was doing his utmost to discredit Gary.
"We’ll take this to court and sue you for compensation." Green's father said to Gary again.
"You want compensation from my son? Why?" A clear and bright voice rang out. Everyone looked over and found a sub-beastman wearing big sungla.s.ses approaching.
This sub-beastman said "my son" . . . . He was Gary's mother? Those reporters were increasingly looking forward to the follow-up after seeing this development.
"What the heck is the matter with my son?" Shu Shu looked at the people around him with puzzlement across his whole face, a little confused about the current situation. He gaily came to welcome his son but found that his son was being surrounded by people . . . . What the h.e.l.l was going on?
"Don't you know what your own son has done? He swindled my son's money!" Green's father said. "Also, how the h.e.l.l did you educate your child? Don’t you care that he likes beastmen?"
Getting criticized made Shu Shu stupid. Since he came to the Beastman Empire, except for experiencing one kidnapping, his life had been smooth sailing. Edgar doted on him very much, to the extent that he had never been criticized like this.
Glancing at Gary blankly, Shu Shu could not help but say, "What's wrong with my son liking beastmen? Why should I care?" He himself also liked beastmen, ah.
"It turned out to be an upbringing problem! Your family only entangled my son because you saw that he has future prospects, right? Now that there’s a better target, you dumped my son? I’m eager for your son to break up with my son, but your son must return the money taken from my son." Green's father was very rude to Shu Shu. Since Gary appeared, Green had been unwilling to listen to his words, so he not only had opinions about Gary but also about Gary's family.
"How much money did my son take from your son?" Shu Shu subconsciously asked.
"I have the remittance record . . ."
"Father!" Green added, "Don't do this!"
"I'm doing this for your own good, Green." Green's father glanced at his son and then turned to face Shu Shu again. "You'd better make a decision quickly. Don't wait for the Duke of Mund to come and give you troubles."
Like Emir, Green’s parents also thought that the Duke of Mund would definitely not approve of his son being with Gary. It was precisely because of this that they took the risk of offending Ludwig and came to trouble Gary after Emir had contacted them.
Of course, he also did this to make Gary have no chance to climb up Ludwig . . . . They treated Gary really badly at that time. If Ludwig and Gary were allowed to be together, Gary would probably get them into trouble in the future!
And this was also the idea of Emir and the mech soldiers around Green. They all were keen for Gary to be with Ludwig, yet now . . . they did not believe that the Duke of Mund would allow his son to be with such a beastman.
"Gary, are you short of money?" Shu Shu turned towards his son. He was very generous to his son, ah, and Edgar was even more generous to Gary. Gary always had too much money to spend; not having enough money to spend never happened to him, okay?
"No." Gary opened his mouth. Watching his mother's outward appearance in this situation, he was a little envious. He also wanted a partner who would always protect him so that he could always remain pure. Lifting his head, he unconsciously glanced at Ludwig and then said, "I'm helping him repair his mech!"
"You heard it. My son only took the money for helping to repair the mech." Shu Shu said to Green's father.
Green's father snorted disdainfully. Gary, however, spoke again at this moment, "Mother, don't listen to their nonsense. How could I fall for such a beastman? He’s not even worthy of carrying my shoes; saying that I rely on him to support me and that I take his money is even more laughable. His little bit of money isn’t even enough for me to shop casually.”
Gary’s words could be said to be harsh. Shu Shu was a bit stunned hearing it. Although he did not fully understand the current situation, he knew that his son had always liked that beastman named Green.
Yet now his son said he did not like that man. Anyway, it did not matter if he did not like that man . . . . Edgar had had several in depth conversations with Gary about Gary’s relations.h.i.+p problems, but he was not overly concerned about it. From the beginning, his approach was to completely not interfere with whatever Gary wanted to do.
Shu Shu was just a bit stunned, but Green's parents were very angry. What did this Gary mean? What was wrong with their son?
"You’ve climbed up Colonel Mund now and so don't look at our son anymore, right? Humph, do you think the Duke of Mund may let you enter their door?" Green's mother said with a sneer.
"If Gary wishes to, I’m willing to let Ludwig enter his family’s door." Calvin, who hurriedly rushed over after receiving his son’s message and happened to hear Green's mother’s words, at once said.
His son was determined to like Gary and most likely would not change in this lifetime. Although he was not happy, he could not stop him either. After all, he had experienced such a painful feeling of unrequited love.
Back then, he had planned not to marry for the rest of his life, but later Myer was willing to accept him, which was simply a dream come true for him!
Calvin saw Shu Shu standing on the side as soon as he finished speaking, and his face immediately showed a guilty expression. His own son coveted others' son, which made him feel even guiltier towards Edgar and Shu Shu.
Meanwhile, the surrounding people and the reporters who saw Calvin appear and heard Calvin's words were startled. The Duke of Mund agreed to Ludwig and Gary together? Did he know all the things Gary had done? Also, Gary would say those words because he knew the Duke of Mund’s att.i.tude?
"Mother, take off your sungla.s.ses." Gary suddenly turned towards Shu Shu.
"Oh . . ." Shu Shu took off his particularly big sungla.s.ses and asked confusedly, "Gary, what's going on with you and Ludwig, ah? Are you in love?" As he spoke, he glanced at Ludwig guiltily. At that time, Myer gave him a lot of money to treat Ludwig. As a result, he had not treated him yet, and Gary already fed Ludwig a bunch of things, which Ludwig basically couldn’t eat at that time, and nearly killed Ludwig . . . . Although he later rescued Ludwig, it still made him feel a little guilty towards Ludwig.
"No, he's chasing me. I haven't agreed yet." Gary said and glanced at the people around him.
At this moment, all the people around him had been petrified, and they were all staring at Shu Shu fixedly.
Shu Shu rarely appeared in public in recent years, but his face was still very recognizable. This was the empress, ah! The empress who could earn billions of money just by making a move casually!
This sub-beastman turned out to be the empress. Then Gary . . . .
It seemed that the imperial family had a little prince whom had never shown his face?
