   The solicitation contest, which lasted for more than half a month, ended, and the carnival celebration in the mecha circle came to an end.

No matter what kind of undercurrents and conflicts there were during the process, everything has been settled. Amidst the cheers of countless supporters, the main arena shook with stardust, surrounded by the virtual projection of white01.

This mecha won the final victory in the solicitation competition, and it also subverted many people's impressions of mechas.

Zhou Linshan stood on the main stage, his beating heart did not calm down, but he finally stopped running around the main stage.

The applause from the auditorium surrounded him, and he finally completely let go of his unwillingness from the split up to now, and tears filled his eyes.

"Everyone who is present or watching the live broadcast, this is the final scene of the solicitation competition!" The commentator's voice was full of excitement, "Just now, white01 and the driver Zhou Linshan won the final victory of this solicitation competition!

" There was jubilation and noise inside.

The simulation chamber automatically sank, the main stage was emptied, and the award presenters of the competition group entered the arena from one side, followed by robots that looked like the first-generation mechs, holding the medals of the solicitation competition in their hands.

"Now is the time for the awards," the narrator said with emotion, "Bai's Research Institute has put forward and practiced their design concepts. I believe that Bai Li himself should be very happy now. Thanks to him and his team for providing the empire A unique mecha——"

The medals of the solicitation competition are made into a star shape, not worn around the neck, but made into a style that can be pinned on the chest. The robot with the appearance of the first-generation mecha held up the medal to be worn by Zhou Linshan.

"Wait," Zhou Linshan said to the award presenter, "Can I..."

The award presenter froze for a moment, smiled and nodded: "Of course."

Zhou Linshan took the medal from the robot. The star-shaped medal is like a medal, with the pattern of the first-generation mecha on the front and a Kali flower on the back.

The medal was not heavy to hold in the palm of the hand, but Zhou Linshan felt that he had to hold it with two hands.

Bai Li had barely calmed down from the excitement, and Lu Zhao couldn't sit still, so he had to stand to ease the blood-boiling feeling.

The two looked at Zhou Linshan on the main stage, but found that the other party didn't seem to intend to wear the medal.

Holding the medal, the young man looked up and looked around. Regardless of the voices and inquiries of the people around him, he walked off the main stage and came to the audience.

The audience was still screaming excitedly, and the audience in the first row waved congratulations to Zhou Linshan.

Zhou Linshan raised the medal in his hand and handed it to a spectator wearing a military academy uniform. The other party didn't react and looked at him blankly.

"Mr. Baili!" Zhou Linshan shouted.

In the crowded main arena, the sound cannot reach the back row.

The narrator found out in time and called the radio-hovering robot to drop.

Zhou Linshan's voice resounded through the robot in the main arena: "Major General Bai!"

Everyone's heart trembled when the voice called out the name. The military academy student came back to his senses, nodded to Zhou Linshan, and leaned forward to take the medal. , Shouting loudly to the companions behind him.

The companion took the medal in his hand, gestured and explained to the person behind him, and handed out the medal.

The medals engraved with Kalihua and the first-generation mecha passed the hands of many people. Si Dong and other military academy students squeezed in, officers in the uniform of the affiliated regiment, fashionable nobles, and civilians who came together. Gender, old and young.

People pass each other in the dark, pointing the way to each other, so that the medals can be passed more quickly.

When the star-shaped medal was handed over by the child sitting closest to Bai Li, Bai Li still hadn't recovered.

The child stretched out his chubby arms and shouted nervously: "Major General Bai, your medal."

In the dimly lit auditorium, the medal was very clear in sight. Bai Li's fingers curled up slightly, and he was a little at a loss.

The other hand took the medal for him.

Lu Zhao thanked him in a low voice, then turned to look at Bai Li.

The commentator's voice sounded in his ears, but he couldn't hear what he was saying. The next second, the beam of the spotlight came over, illuminating the corner.

Bai Li squinted his eyes subconsciously, and Lu Zhao leaned down to block some light for him.

"Thank you," Bai Li recovered his voice, "I—"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Zhao had already squatted down and pinned the medal to Bai Li's chest.

The movement was very light, just like when the kali was parted.

"Congratulations," Lu Zhao looked at him, "You have won."

Even if you are not on the main stage, even if you are not the one who opened the armor.

But congrats on your win.

Bai Li's heart seemed to have been scalded by the medal, and the inside that was once full of icy balls softened, and the tip of his nose felt a little sour.

There have been times of glory in his life, but he has never had a medal.

Now finally.

Someone stood up and applauded, and then more people stood up. This was a little different from the previous applause. The previous applause was given to the winner, but this time the applause was given to Bai Li who rushed forward without hesitation.

Bai Li patted Lu Zhao's arm, trying to get him to stand up.

But Lu Zhao didn't move. He rubbed his fingers against the medal for a moment, then suddenly leaned forward and kissed Bai Li's chest.

What a fiery heart beats in this chest.

Worthy of all tender kisses.

People burst into more enthusiastic applause after a brief stupor.

"The medal has arrived at the first driver and developer of white01, Bai Li," the commentator's voice was slightly hoarse, but he still maintained a high degree of excitement, "Let us give a gift to the winner who did not appear on the final stage." Applause - people who are still working alone in adversity!"

This medal was presented to Baili by people of different identities and gender.

The moment from ninety-nine to one hundred is brilliant and shocking, but the one to ninety-nine that no one cares about is an indispensable foundation.

It was the countless bloody ants before the ant that knocked down the big tree.

Even though Bai Li did not stand on the main stage, he never quit the arena.

The grand ceremony is over, but people will continue to discuss everything about today for a long time. There have been a lot of topics on the Starnet, which finally made the citizens of the empire, who have been angered by scandals and shady scenes, finally have something to be happy about.

The main arena opened more exits for the audience to leave. After the medical staff checked Bai Li's left leg again, several people left from the nearest exit.

Many reporters had already gathered in the lobby outside the main stadium, but due to Bai Li's physical condition, they could only follow along and ask some simple questions.

"Mr. Bai," someone yelled in a steady tone, "We meet again."

The voice was quite familiar, and Bai Li stopped the wheelchair, and turned his head with Lu Zhao to take a look.

Lin Xu walked through the crowd, followed by two guards with nervous and helpless expressions. It seemed that dissuasion was ineffective, so he could only accompany Lin Xu, and at the end was followed by a man who looked like an assistant trotting all the way.

Although not as high-profile as the first heir, Lin Xu's face is considered familiar in the empire recently, so the crowd automatically moved away.

"I watched the game." Lin Xu went straight to Bai Li and stopped, and stretched out his hand, "It was very exciting."

Bai Li was a little helpless with this stupefied second heir, and shook hands with a smile: "Thank you, Second Highness. The

reporters kept filming, Lin Xu seemed not to notice, and shook hands with Lu Zhao again.

"Congratulations to Bai's Research Institute," Lin Xu said in a low voice, "I am looking forward to the day when white01 is put into use, and if I have the opportunity, I will try to open one." After saying this, there was a lot of discussion around

.

The assistant coughed quickly.

The royal family has been keeping a low profile in the past few days when outside public opinion is fermenting, even a little timid, and Lin Xu came directly to communicate with Bai Li at this time, which seems to others to have expressed his position.

Even if he didn't say it clearly, this attitude seemed to be an apology to Bai Li.

"Your throat is uncomfortable?" Lin Xu looked at the assistant with concern, "Drink some water."

The assistant choked for a moment: "Your Highness, there is a meeting to be held in a while." Then he hurriedly turned around and explained the situation to the surrounding reporters.

Bai Li wanted to laugh, but endured it very hard.

"Treat well," Lin Xu glanced at Bai Li's left leg, and said without hesitation, paused, and said in a voice that only they could hear, "The empire is in urgent need of excellent pilots, I think the follow-up research and development of white01 It will be put on the agenda soon."

After speaking, he nodded with Bai Li, and left the main arena with his own people from the relatively hidden comrades.

Bai Li was quite unaccustomed to this way of going his own way, and he operated the wheelchair and walked forward: "Go back to the hospital first, Situ and the others are waiting at the hospital..." Before he could finish speaking,

Lu Zhao's personal terminal rang.

The game on the virtual screen has come to an end, Bai Li left the main arena accompanied by Lu Zhao.

Bai Ying's eyes lingered on his smiling face for a moment, and then finally let go of her clasped hands, and let out a long breath of relief.

She was really happy for Bai Li, all her efforts had paid off.

The door of the ward was opened, and the doctor in a white coat poked his head out and said softly, "Madam, you can visit now."

This ward is a bit like a special ward used during the alpha susceptible period, and the walls can isolate pheromones. Padded, there is nothing in the ward that will stimulate the patient's emotions.

When Bai Ying walked into the ward, Tang Kaiyuan's mood had stabilized.

He sat on the hospital bed staring at the void in a daze, muttering something in his mouth.

Bai Ying walked a little closer, only to hear him repeating the words "It should all be mine" over and over again.

This person seemed to have lost his other languages, and could only speak these eight characters over and over again.

Bai Ying turned her head to wipe away the tears from her eyes, even though she had long thought that Tang Kaiyuan would be ruined by that machine and his temper, she still felt uncomfortable when that day actually came.

She feels that she still has a lot of responsibility for the child to get to where she is today.

"Don't provoke him," the doctor said in a low voice, "his spirit is very fragile, and his mental strength is extremely low...I'm not sure if he can recover to normal, it will cost a lot of money and energy." "Do our best to treat, we will

cooperate Yes." Bai Ying rubbed her eyes, "But it won't be on the main star, and I will arrange for him to go to the B20 subsidiary star for recuperation in the near future." The

doctor nodded, knowing very well that Tang Kaiyuan was basically unable to take care of himself in this situation. Live in the affiliated star for a lifetime.

The visiting time was over, and when Bai Ying came out of the ward, she met An Lun.

In just a few days, An Lun lost a lot of weight. The permanent mark on the back of his neck made him feel uncomfortable, and the person who gave him the mark can't even recognize him now.

"Madam Tang..." Seeing Bai Ying, An Lun was a little scared for some reason.

He is now a little inexplicably shivering at this seemingly weak woman. From the moment she dug him out of Tang Kaiyuan's room with his face covered in bruises and sent him to the hospital for treatment, An Lun knew that Bai Ying had been with him. It's not the same before.

"Do you feel better now?" Bai Ying stroked his arm lightly, "You don't need to worry about anything else, just take a good rest."

An Lun nodded indiscriminately, and glanced at the door of the ward.

"Want to meet Kaiyuan?" Bai Ying asked.

An Lun shouted almost immediately: "No!"

After speaking, he was also a little dazed. He once thought that his feelings for Tang Kaiyuan would not be shaken in any way, but during this period of time, whenever he thought of Tang Kaiyuan, the memory remained in his mind. All that remains is the pain of being forcibly marked.

"I'm just... just..." An Lun stammered.

Bai Ying comforted: "It's okay, I know. I'm sorry... As I said before, you can continue to stay in Tang Corporation, and I will pay for all your expenses, including medical treatment. You can also go home, if you If you have any needs at home, you can feel free to mention it, it was Kaiyuan who did something wrong, I will do my best to compensate you, I don't want you to forgive me, but I just hope I can help you, okay?" An Lun's mind froze

. In a mess, he had been in a daze for the past few days, and felt that there was no way to go under his feet.

He contacted his family several times, and his father and father were very angry. On the one hand, they were angry with the Tang family, and on the other hand, they blamed An Lun for being too reckless and embarrassing the family.

"I don't know what to do." An Lun whispered.

Bai Ying froze for a moment, then sighed: "It's okay, you're still so young, it's good to rest for a while." "

I, I want to wash off..." An Lun's next words were slurred because his voice was too low.

But Bai Ying knew exactly what he was talking about. Seeing him shrugging his shoulders, he seemed to be a little scared, so she slowed down her voice and said, "Yes, I've learned about this, and it's completely in time for you to wash off the marks now.

" Ying's gentle voice eased a little, and after a moment of silence, he said awkwardly: "I heard it hurts." "

It does hurt," Bai Ying smiled, "but you can go anywhere after the pain."

An Lun Didn't quite understand, before he could ask, Bai Ying's personal terminal rang.

"I'm going to pick up a communication, can you wait for me for a while?" Bai Ying smiled apologetically, "When I come back, can we discuss washing marks and follow-up maintenance matters?" An Lun nodded in agreement, and

found A chair to sit on.

The weather outside the window was fine, the sun was shining brightly, and a dry-smelling wind blew in through the open window.

At this moment, he finally relaxed a little. An Lun leaned back in the chair to let his mind go blank, and heard Bai Ying's voice coming from around the corner.

"Yes...I'm sure, I won't regret it, please arrange surgery as soon as possible." On

the way back to the military hospital, the car drove very fast.

Huo Cun's communication to Lu Zhao was very brief, and the second group of people who went to go was asked to gather urgently in a few hours and set off for the affiliated star late at night.

The transfer order came very suddenly. Fortunately, there was still some time before departure. Lu Zhao decided to send Bai Li back to the military hospital first, and then go home to pack some things and prepare to leave.

Bai Li's condition was not very good, and the effect of the analgesic injections faded. When Lu Zhao came out of the main arena, he accidentally touched his back, only to find that he was in a cold sweat from the pain.

Fortunately, Situ and the others in the hospital had been waiting for a long time. As soon as the car arrived, someone took over and sprayed Bai Li wildly, calling Lao Zheng while spraying.

As soon as Lu Zhao received the emergency dispatch order, the two Situ Sidang brothers rushed to Lu Zhao to leave again.

There were a lot of people crowded in the ward, all of whom were Bai Li's old acquaintances, who came to celebrate the victory, but unexpectedly caught up with Young Master Bai's legs throbbing with pain, and they all panicked, trying to help, Mess up.

Most of the joy of victory in the final was washed away by the turbulent scene. Fortunately, Bai Li was carried to the hospital bed in the end. A group of people surrounded the bed, making Bai Li's scalp numb.

"I'll go back and pack my things." Lu Zhao held Bai Li's hand, his tone a little low, "You..."

Bai Li squeezed Lu Zhao's hand.

The force was light, but Lu Zhao knew what he meant.

This pinch made Major General Lu finally let go of Bai Li's hand, walked out of the ward in silence, and drove back to the apartment.

It has been a while since Bai Li was hospitalized, and Lu Zhao hasn't been home.

The warm sun after the rainy season pours in from the floor-to-ceiling windows, filling the room where the two live together.

Lu Zhao stood at the door for two seconds before he finally felt a bit of reluctance and sadness after the hasty day. He and Bai Li won't have a chance to eat and take a nap in this apartment for at least a long time.

The rainy season is over, but they have no chance to return to this apartment.

In the bedroom, the bed was remade neatly by the machine housekeeper, but the books Bai Li had read before leaving the apartment were still placed on the bedside, and on it was the pen with the metal shell of the mecha pattern that Lu Zhao brought back from the Legion. Bai Li took this Pen makes a mark on the book.

Lu Zhao walked into the bedroom, took out some of his own clothes from the closet, and packed them up. After a pause, he took out some of Bai Li's change of clothes, and stuffed them into a bag together with books and pens.

He will be away from the main planet for a long time, and Bai Li will also be in the hospital for a long time, so he will probably be happy to have more things at home around him.

After everything was settled, Lu Zhaocai stood at home for a while.

No matter how clean the machine butlers in the hall are, you can still see the traces of the common life.

The constant temperature cabinet is also filled with Bai Li's snacks and the nutrient solution that they both need to take regularly, the freezer is full of semi-finished quick-frozen food, and the iced drinks have their own favorite flavors.

There are a few more pillows on the sofa, which is convenient for the two of them to take a nap together, the home clothes hanging on the hanger, the slippers of the two on the ground, and the respective books and ornaments on the cabinet.

Lu Zhao has always felt that he is a person who is very insensitive to feelings, but he suddenly understood why people are so attached to many things in this warm afternoon.

Because he can see the shadow of Bai Li on these tiny things.

He closed his eyes, it was getting late, and he had to go back to the military hospital to send clothes and so on to Bai Li.

Lu Zhao took two steps, then turned back to the cabinet in the living room, and took away the things on it.

"It's time to go out again," the machine butler dragged his chubby body around, and waved his arms at Lu Zhao who pushed the door and went out, "Go early and come back early!"

Lu Zhao said, "Yes." Waiting

for Lu Zhao When they rushed back to the military hospital with the car assigned by the legion, most of the people in Baili's ward had dispersed, only Situ was left to discuss matters with Lao Zheng. Seeing Lu Zhao coming, the two walked out of the door tacitly.

"I just got an analgesic injection, and I'm a little confused," Lao Zheng said to Lu Zhao before walking away, "Don't worry, I will treat him alive and well." In fact, Lao Zheng usually wouldn't say this, after all, the operation is not 100%

successful Yes, let alone Baili's situation.

Lu Zhao nodded his thanks, knowing that Lao Zheng didn't want him to go on a mission with worries.

The ward was quiet again, and Bai Li was lying on the hospital bed. He usually fell asleep quickly after the painkiller injection, but today he opened his eyes as soon as Lu Zhao walked in.

"I knew you had to come back," Bai Li smiled, "We haven't had time to whisper, have we?"

Lu Zhao thought the word "whisper" was a bit funny, so he raised the corner of his mouth and lifted the bag in his hand: "Change clothes, book." "I haven't

finished this book yet." Bai Li wanted to take the book, but Lu Zhao only put it on the bedside.

He took Bai Li's hand and put another thing in Bai Li's hand.

The warm little thing with body temperature feels round to the touch, and Bai Li spread out his palm.

It was the Kali flower sealed in a transparent stone that Lu Zhao gave him.

Lu Zhao seems to like to give him all gifts related to glory and praise. Major General Lu himself is not good at words, but he always gives Bai Li things that he thinks represent all glory.

"Give it to me again." Bai Li held it tightly and pulled Lu Zhao closer to him. "I have to bring it into the operating room to accompany me." Lu Zhaoqiang suppressed his emotions and asked:

" When will the operation be?"

"After half a month," Bai Li said, "Old Zheng thinks it can't be delayed any longer."

After half a month, Lu Zhao couldn't come back at all.

His kind of mission would have to float outside for at least a month or two before landing, not necessarily returning to the main star.

"The house is fine," Lu Zhao said dryly, "The fat man is cleaning."

This is a very common thing, and the machine housekeeper was originally made for this. But Bai Li just said: "Although the fat man is good at cleaning, I personally think he is better at cursing." "

Indeed." Lu Zhao smiled, with a bitter taste in his throat, he couldn't continue speaking.

He touched Bai Li's forehead. In fact, the latter's complexion had never been very good-looking, lacking in blood, and he looked drowsy and sleepy after the painkiller injection.

"I'm sweating," Bai Li felt that Lu Zhao's hand touching his forehead was a bit wet, and he pulled it down and kissed him. "It's okay, don't be afraid. When you come back, nothing has changed at home." He knew that for Lu

Zhao Said that this should be the first real "voyage away from home". The more he knew, the stronger Bai Li's reluctance would be.

Bai Li hoped that the hand in his hand could stay longer, but he also knew better than anyone that this hand was to activate the armor.

No matter how reluctant he was, he had to let go.

Before he let go, Lu Zhao bent down and buried his head in his chest.

"When I was going out, the chubby man said 'go early and return early'," Lu Zhao said on his chest, "I found that I wanted to go back just after I left." Bai Li's eyes were misty, and

he Trying to swallow the emotions that came up, he rubbed Lu Zhao's head: "I know, I know."

Lu Zhao slightly raised his head and kissed Bai Li's neck, then pressed his forehead against Bai Li's forehead, dumbfounded Voice said: "I really want to accompany you in the operation."

It's like accompanying you in the ward during the susceptible period.

Bai Li couldn't speak, he was defeated again by Lu Zhao's frank and straightforward appearance.

Just like the rainy night when I compromised my feelings, I threw away my helmet and armor.

"Stop talking," Bai Li touched the back of Lu Zhao's neck with his hand, his voice trembled, and he pressed him to his side uncontrollably, "I miss you before you leave."

Lu Zhao let him press his head down. This kiss was full of reluctance and struggle, but it also conveyed tenderness and encouragement.

You can see your outline in each other's eyes until you part.

"Go," Bai Li smiled, and hammered Lu Zhao's shoulder hard, "Look at the universe and the galaxy for me." It's not the

simulated stardust, but the real endless universe.

He is eagerly looking forward to the place where he can go back again, and Lu Zhao can take a step ahead to take a look for him.

Lu Zhao laughed, there was a lot he wanted to say, but he didn't know how to say it.

He picked up his luggage and took a step back: "Let's go out."

Bai Li said: "Go early and return early."

That night, several warships set off from the main star to the peripheral satellite.

Bai Li's surgery was scheduled for fifteen days later.

They went to their own battlefields.
