Rong Duo had just sent a message to the group saying that the Admiral was a scumbag, which drew in a bunch of people who wanted to watch the wonderful love, when he returned in a hurry, looking quite nervous.

Rong Duo: “…….”

@DelicateFlower Never mind, scatter. What a wonderful love.

. . . . . . 

When Lucas returned to the room, he saw that Luo Ran was still lying in the same position as when he left, but he was already awake.

Lucas observed him for a moment and felt that he was fine. There was nothing wrong with him. It was not as exaggerated as what Lu Cheng and others had said.

After all, Luo Ran was different from other Omegas, professional and calm, and not so delicate.

Tsk, tsk, he didn’t like delicate Omegas.

Lucas stepped forward and pulled up the quilt for Luo Ran, saying with a smile: “You’re awake? Are you hungry?”

Luo Ran glanced at Lucas and shook his head slightly.

Since the end of their playing, other than being pulled by Lucas, Luo Ran didn’t want to move — his whole body hurt, especially the lower half.

“How can you not be hungry? I’ll get you something to eat.” What Lucas meant was that he would go to the kitchen and get some biscuits. He couldn’t cook, after all.

Lucas turned to leave.

Crash—

In the next moment, Lucas’s eyes widened.

Luo Ran had gotten up and hugged him forcefully from behind.

Luo Ran leaned his face against Lucas’s back, wrapping his arms around the other’s waist. It seemed that he was overly anxious, and he entangled his legs too.

Lucas could feel Luo Ran’s belly pressing against his back.

At the thought of it, Lucas immediately felt short of breath.

— All of that came from him.

Luo Ran seemed to be restraining himself hard, and felt very upset.

“Sorry, Admiral.”

But he still held on and didn’t let go.

This was a recently marked Omega’s instinct to keep his Alpha to himself. He couldn’t control it.

Lucas: “……”

Fuck, a delicate Omega was really great.

Lucas said: “Let go.”

Luo Ran paused, then retracted his limbs and said with a blushing face: “I’m sorry, the Admiral should go back to work. There must be piles of official documents by now……wu.”

In the next moment, he was picked up by Lucas.

Lucas turned around and took Luo Ran into his arms, wrapped him in a big jacket, and kissed his forehead.

“Silly Ranran.” Lucas kicked off his shoes and got onto the bed, saying: “Why didn’t you say anything.”

“I’m fine, the Admiral should go to work soon……”

Lucas grasped Luo Ran’s chin and kissed him.

“Hush.”

After the kiss, Lucas took a small bag out of his pocket.

“I took it from the medicine box in the aircraft.”

Lucas glanced at Luo Ran.

Luo Ran was sitting on the bed at the moment. His long, silver hair was loose, draping casually over his shoulders, and he wore a loose white bathrobe. There was not much fabric, and his smooth thighs and chest could be seens.

They were full of wounds and bite marks.

Lucas swallowed, and said in a low voice: “Next time, I’ll control myself.”

He really had no concept of his own strength.

“It’s okay.” Luo Ran paused, then said with a smile: “It’s better than last time.”

Lucas went a little stiff from head to toe.

“Luo Ran.”

“En?”

“I apologize for what happened last time.” Lucas frowned and said: “I was wrong last time, and I was discourteous.”

He could imagine that it was painful, so much so that Luo Ran couldn’t bear it and asked for leave without prior notice.

If it was someone else, Lucas would have said something, but it was Luo Ran that night.

“En.” Luo Ran chuckled.

Lucas undid the belt of Luo Ran’s bathrobe.

Luo Ran was taken aback, and subconsciously grabbed Lucas’s hand.

“It’s just for the medicine, I’m not that beastly.” Lucas rolled his eyes.

Lucas applied the ointment with his hands, rubbing it onto Luo Ran gently. As for the key parts, Luo Ran refused to let him touch those.

“Don’t do that.” Lucas held Luo Ran down and applied medicine to the hardest-hit area on his chest.

Lucas paused for a moment, then subconsciously grabbed a handful with his wolf paws. He said with a smile: “I saw in the videos that some Omegas will grow bigger after giving birth. Will you?”

“……I don’t know.” Luo Ran’s ears were red. He said: “I’ve seen some Alphas in their susceptible phase cry in those videos. Will you, Admiral?”

“Tsk.” Lucas bared his teeth: “I won’t, but I know you’ve been crying for three days until your voice became hoarse.”

Luo Ran bowed his head and said nothing.

It would be embarrassing for any other Omega to have done these things, not to mention that Luo Ran had always lived as a Beta previously and regarded himself as a Beta/Omega. He had always been careful to remain professional in front of outsiders and Lucas, and to do his duty well.

So Luo Ran couldn’t let go.

After the medicine was finally finished being applied, Luo Ran paused. Lucas saw him hesitating to speak.

“Just say it.”

Luo Ran frowned slightly.

He and Lucas had a 200% match rate, and didn’t waste any time during these three days. If he didn’t take medicine, he would 100% get pregnant.

But now wasn’t the time. The star pirates hadn’t been dealt with yet, and Luo Ran still needed to travel around the capital and even go to the front line of the battlefield with Lucas.

Luo Ran was worried that Lucas would get angry and take offense, as if he had no confidence in Lucas.

Seeing Luo Ran’s awkward and measuring appearance, Lucas sneered: “Fine, forget it.”

Lucas took a sheet of pills out of his pocket and handed them to Luo Ran: “I asked Lu Cheng to send them to me. When that prince was in poor health before and hadn’t recovered, he also didn’t plan to have a child.”

Luo Ran was slightly taken aback.

“The Admiral doesn’t mind?”

“Children are trouble, I like you more.” Lucas said with a frown: “You can decide for yourself.”

Lucas thought to himself, he had only eaten his fill once. If there were children, wouldn’t he have to compete for favor?

This little bastard Luo Ran would definitely ignore him for a child.

“Okay.” Luo Ran took the medicine with a smile.

Afterwards, Lucas and Luo Ran ate noodles together. The reason they had noodles instead of dry food was because Rong Duo thoughtfully cooked them in the kitchen first for the two of them. They were hot and very light, and there were also eggs, which Luo Ran liked very much.

Rong Duo didn’t know what to think, and directly put enough noodles for three people in one large bowl, so Lucas held the bowl and the two of them ate together.

Of course, there were three servings because everyone knew Lucas could eat two servings.

When there was only one last piece of meat left in the bowl, Luo Ran picked it up and put it on Lucas’s spoon with a smile.

Lucas paused, then frowned and gave it back to Luo Ran. “Eat a little more.”

“The Admiral should eat it.” Luo Ran gave it back again. “I don’t eat much.”

“…….”

Then both of them fell silent.

After a pause, Lucas smiled and said: “Hypocrite.”

Luo Ran also smiled.

The two of them were very close, and the pheromones on Lucas’s body surrounded and enveloped him, which made Luo Ran feel very comfortable.

The hot soup was also very comforting.

“Admiral.” Luo Ran gently pushed Lucas away and straightened his collar and tie. He said: “You came back from military headquarters, right? You hurry to work, I plan to take a shower and go to sleep.”

Lucas frowned slightly.

“Go. Go early and come back early.” Luo Ran lightly patted Lucas’s tie.

It was true that he really had to go to the military department, but Lucas could go over and hand out tasks, then take the official documents back to the room and read them with Luo Ran.

“Okay.” Lucas said: “Give me a few hours. I’ll be back as soon as possible.”

“En.” Luo Ran nodded.

Seeing that Luo Ran was about to bathe, and was much better than before, Lucas returned to military headquarters again in the evening.

It was the first time that Lu Cheng and Wang Qiuyang had seen Lucas move so fast. It was less like working and more like trying to survive.

And during the three days Lucas and Luo Ran were messing around, a huge thing happened.

The First Prince……was ruined.

Catastrophically ruined.

It had happened just the day before. A serious explosion suddenly occurred at the pharmaceutical factory on j4. Its magnitude alerted the satellites, and everyone knew about it in an instant.

The pharmaceutical factory was completely blown up, and a line of words was written on it in red paint.

—People were provided and goods were delivered, but Zhou Mingyu is ungrateful

Lucas surmised that the First Prince and the star pirates had a falling-out, and the reason for it should be that he refused to fund them. After all, reports from the investigation department showed that the pharmaceutical factories would be shut down one after another in the near future.

So he was retaliated against by the star pirates.

How could he ask a tiger for its skin and then retreat?

The First Prince was too proud and arrogant. He forgot that although he was part of the royal family and the star pirates were just rogue bandits, in this transaction, the star pirates who provided the soldiers and weapons were the dominant party.

Thus, the First Prince had finally settled the embezzlement lawsuit when he was sued in court once more, together with Yuan Han’s suit.

Looking at the comments on the Starnet, everyone had completely lost confidence in the First Prince.

XXXX: Supporters of the First Prince, don’t try to whitewash him. The star pirates……mother, ah, the First Prince directly gave a pharmaceutical company to the star pirates? The xxx brand drugs that we bought like mad recently were used by the star pirates to make weapons and Meteor Showers? WTF, I’m so disgusted. I actually bought those, I’m really disgusted now.

XXXX: Cyril made me vomit before. My brother and uncle gave their lives to the Empire to protect us, and Cyril colluded with the star pirates. I didn’t expect that there would be something even worse. Now the First Prince has directly made me vomit up all my food for an entire month. God, I also recommended that my parents buy these drugs…..I added bricks and tiles to pave the way for the star pirates to create Meteor Showers…..I hate myself so much…..I hate it, ah.

XXXX: Ahhhhh die First Prince! ! ! Die! ! ! The crown prince actually colluded with the star pirates?! Just because he recognized that Admiral Lucas would support the Second Prince?!

XXXX: Responding to upstairs, regarding UNK, the Admiral did side with the Second Prince after the fact. But for fear that he wouldn’t sit on the throne himself, for his own self-interest, he colluded with the star pirates?! Has he forgotten that the ultimate goal of the star pirates is to take back the Empire? He really thought that after opening the door for the star pirates, he would be able to control and suppress them? This is too arrogant! How many people have died because of his arrogance and selfishness?!

XXXX: Die, Zhou Mingyu!! Die!

And starting today, some people began to take to the streets in protest.

Zhou Mingyu was currently detained in court, and the people held signs to protest in front of the court building, demanding that the council and the court sanction him.

The lawyer representing the First Prince kept clarifying that the First Prince had been splashed with dirty water by the star pirates, but trust was breaking down little by little. The First Prince did not perform well in various incidents before, and now nobody trusted him anymore.

In the end, more and more details came out about the previous incidents. With the help of the Second Prince, the public knew that Cyril had plotted against Lucas when he was a child, and also that during the UNK dispute before, the First Prince had led people to forcefully take Luo Ran away for inhumane experiments, which caused Lucas to abandon the front line and hurry back to retrieve him.

While Lucas was fighting on the front line, the First Prince not only failed to take care of Lucas’s concerns, but also added to them, affecting the safety of the Empire. On the contrary, the Second Prince had been silently making contributions.

“Admiral, do we need to take care of the public uprising?” Lu Cheng frowned slightly.

Lucas finished watching the video of the protest on the news, and pondered for a moment before saying: “Let them make trouble, but bring people to keep it under control. Don’t let the First Prince use force, and don’t let the people get too agitated.”

“Yes!”

Lu Cheng glanced at Lucas and felt very complicated.

“What the hell are you doing, just go.”

“Admiral…..Lao Wang and I both feel that you are very different recently.” Lu Cheng said with a smile: “You never used to deal with these brain-intensive things.”

Whether it was the negotiations with Luobing or the First Prince’s case now, Lucas would have tossed it to Luo Ran in the past. Of course, it wasn’t that Lucas couldn’t do it, but that he didn’t want to do it.

But now, Lucas had also started to do Luo Ran’s work and share it with him.

“Lu Cheng.” Lucas said with a savage expression: “Are you saying I have no brains?”

“I’m not….!” Lu Cheng fled.

Lucas strode after him and kicked him hard on the ass.

When Luo Ran was seriously injured before, Lu Cheng had brought him back from the snowy mountain to find Xia Zhi, so he knew Luo Ran’s status as an Omega and kept it a secret. During the day, he even pretended not to know in front of Wang Qiuyang, and called him a Beta.

Therefore, Lucas was not afraid to speak up, and asked directly: “After an Omega is marked, is there anything else they need besides wanting to be with you?”

“Just spend more time with him and use pheromones to comfort him. Use contraception if necessary, and pay attention to the nesting period.”

The two of them were the only ones in the office. Lu Cheng said mysteriously: “Admiral, remember, don’t stop him when he’s building a nest.”

“What?” Lucas frowned.

Lu Cheng explained: “I didn’t understand when my person built a nest before. I cleared away the small nest he had piled up, thinking that since I was back, it would be better for him to hug the real person. I wasn’t expecting him to cry himself to death.”

“Ah.” Lucas thought, Omegas are really troublesome.

But his family’s Luo Ran should be an Omega who didn’t build a nest……right?

Lucas packed up the documents and got up, saying: “You and Lao Wang look after the military department, I won’t be coming here often these days.”

“No problem!” Lu Cheng smiled.

Lucas brought the stack of official documents to the office.

It was already late at night. Lucas tossed the documents down on the table, went back to the room, and turned the light on.

Then he froze.

There was a tall pile of clothing on the bed, all of them his.

Most of Lucas’s clothes were military jackets, trench coats, outerwear, and the like. They were larger, with more fabric. And Luo Ran was always buying clothes for Lucas, so there was truly a lot at the moment, stacked as tall as Luo Ran sitting on the bed.

Luo Ran had surrounded himself with Lucas’s clothes, and was still wearing the jacket Lucas had given him before he left.

He was nesting in a pile of Lucas’s clothes like a chick.

Lucas: “…….”

Fuck.

He was a goner.
