Dawn Sleep

Chapter 63

Teaching Someone a Lesson (1)

However, in any case, the anxiety on the other side was about to overflow through the screen. Jiang Jianming dared not to ignore it, and hurriedly squeezed out of the crowd, found a remote corner to stop, and typed back:

[Just landed, everything is fine, please be rest assured.]

After thinking about it, he added another sentence:

[Just didn’t see it, and I didn’t get angry, please don’t lose your temper either, take care]

He breathed a sigh of relief after sending these two sentences, and slowly raised his head to look at the sky. This was the blue sky of Aslan, with gentle breeze blowing through the ginkgo trees arranged in an arc at the exit of the Beluga Star Port, and farther away were the crowds of people who came to welcome their relatives and friends.

Under the shade of a tree, a father threw down his suitcase, laughed and caught the child who jumped into his arms, while his wife bent down with a smile, taking the suitcase up from the ground again.

Even though it was already winter, the temperature was only slightly cold. The place where the sunlight shone was even somewhat warmer, unlike the harsh cold of the Alpha Alien Star.

It wasn’t until then that Jiang Jianming felt that he had really returned to the empire.

He tugged at the strap of his backpack, and headed slowly towards the exit of the starship port, while wondering where he should settle tonight.

“Hey, classmate Jiang——!”

Among the crowd in the distance, a familiar figure suddenly appeared. Bei Man’er waved her hand vigorously, “Here!”

Jiang Jianming was a little surprised, and quickly walked a few steps to meet her. “Man’er? Why did you come here directly, I was planning to make an appointment……”

His eyes fell on Bei Man’er: the wrinkled lace gloves, the luxurious long skirt knotted at the thigh, the shoes that did not match the long skirt, the hair that was slightly curled but completely unstyled…….and beads of sweat that dampen the delicate makeup, but also added a different kind of vitality to the girl.

“How did you get into this?”

Bei Man’er smiled shyly. “In the moment of excitement, I couldn’t help rushing out of the house wearing a big skirt.”

Passers-by kept casting curious or strange glances, but she didn’t care, instead her eyes were bright, “It’s okay! I told my family on the way that I will be with a friend today. What are Jiang’s plans next? Do you have a place to live? Or perhaps, would you like to come to my house?”

Jiang Jianming: “It’s okay. I want to go back to Kaios Military Academy to see Instructor Luo Hai first. He took care of me a lot back then.”

——Then I can take advantage of the opportunity to borrow and live in the staff dormitory of the school, saving the money for staying in a hotel.

“Kaios.” Bei Man’er showed a hint of melancholy on her face.

Ever since she came back from the Far Interstellar Space, her mental state had been consistently low, she hadn’t seen her early teachers as well. 

“That…then can I go with you, is that okay? Although it’s only been a few months since I graduated, I really miss it a bit.”

“Of course you are welcome to, but your……”

Jiang Jianming bent the corners of his lips, and kindly suggested, “Miss Bei, at least you should change your clothes?”

Bei Man’er blushed slightly, and said, “Let’s go to West Galaxy Street first, I’ll buy some clothes, and treat you to lunch there!”

The two turned around, and Bei Man’er led Jiang Jianming to the private air vehicle parking lot. On the way, the latter briefly told her what happened in the fortress, including Lieutenant Colonel Huo Lin’s sacrifice, and within the scope of not involving military secrets.

“And…” Jiang Jianming took out an envelope from his backpack, “Tang Zhen asked me to bring you this letter, it’s handwritten.”

Bei Man’er was taken aback for a moment, then smiled sweetly.

She put the letter away with great care and suddenly pretended to be casual and said, “Classmate Jiang…..say, how about we go back and drive a mecha!”

Jiang Jianming: “Mecha?”

Bei Man’er whispered mysteriously, “My father recently revealed some information about the military. I heard that an officer in the Silver Big Dipper anonymously proposed a project….”

“Wishing that the empire can re-establish the division of mecha driving, and recruit a small number of talented remnant crystal humans to provide help for the new crystal humans in mecha!”

“If this proposal can be passed, external combat and internal driving of the mecha can possibly be clearly distinguished to different branches in the army……”

Bei Man’er turned on her air vehicle, sat in the driver’s seat, and nodded vigorously, “Since the remnant crystal human beings can do it, then the new crystal human beings with prosthetic limbs must be able to do it as well!”

Jiang Jianming nodded, “It is indeed possible.”

It was very strange, although the words that the eldest lady of the Bei family said were obviously shocking to the world, and that if Madame Bei heard it, she might turn pale and faint on the spot, but the other just merely nodded gently.

This attitude was too calm and indifferent, causing Bei Man’er, who was originally nervous in the heart, to feel a bit dispassionate.

“Isn’t classmate Jiang surprised?” She sighed, “That’s right, you are on the front line of the Silver Big Dipper, you must have heard the news a long time ago.”

Jiang Jianming put his backpack on the back seat, and said in a leisurely manner, “If you have decided, then it will require effort, even if the proposal really passes, the review conditions will also be very strict.”

The air vehicle carried two people into the sky, Bei Man’er took a deep breath, “I will. No matter how hard it is, it will never be more difficult than your journey, right?”

The girl of noble origin stared at the console under her hand, her eyes gradually becoming firm.

……It seems that after becoming like this, she was finally able to truly understand some things and some people.

To loosen the conscription restrictions, if you were your former self, you would never care about such trivial matters.

However, this seemingly insignificant change, for some people, will become their hope of changing their lives.

“I don’t know who came up with the idea, classmate Jiang, do you know who it is?”

Bei Man’er sighed, “If I can return to Silver Big Dipper in the future, I will thank that person personally.”

“Oh, you’re welcome.”

Jiang Jianming, who was nestled in his seat, chuckled. “It was me.”

Bei Man’er: “Huh, it turns out to be…..”

Bei Man’er: “——huh??”

****

About two hours later, Jiang Jianming and Bei Man’er walked on the bustling and fashionable West Galaxy Street.

“Ah, unexpectedly, it’s classmate Jiang. Furthermore, you actually have friendship with Major General Xie in the fortress……” Bei Man’er didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, “I was shocked for several nights, even my dad was pondering about it every day!’

To say that Bei Man’er was worthy of being a noble lady, a few minutes before, she went into a famous brand store on the spot and bought a complete set of clothes, and then put on a limited edition cashmere trench coat and a black pearl hairpin.

Coming out of the dressing room, it was simply another radiant and beautiful girl.

She paid some more money and asked the clerk of this store to send the changed clothes back to the Bei’s house. Now, she could finally go shopping with Jiang Jianming with ease.

“No, there are still many loopholes.”

Jiang Jianming, on the other hand, was dressed in very simple and clean clothes, relying solely on his own temperament to avoid appearing shabby. “It is easy to put forward a matter verbally, but it is difficult to push the idea into practical application.”

“It will get better.” Bei Man’er said, “By the way, it’s almost noon, which restaurant should we go to eat a meal? Jiang Jiang didn’t come out with us very much before, I’m not even sure about your taste……..”

“It’s okay, I don’t have any taboos. I’m not familiar with this area, so you can take me wherever you like.”

Speaking of “taste”, Jiang Jianming couldn’t help thinking of another person who regarded himself as his breeder. 

I don’t know how the Little Highness is doing now, has he become obedient after receiving his reply.

He turned on his wrist device and looked at it…His expression changed slightly.

Good heavens, why are there more than a dozen unread messages!

Isn’t it just about confirming personal safety?

Jiang Jianming couldn’t help frowning, he said sorry to Bei Man’er, and then read them carefully one by one.

The first few were just to support the surface saying that he simply wanted to confirm his safety, asking him where he was now, asking him where he plans to settle at night…and asking him to make a real-time chat communication.

The rest was another mess of urging him to reply.

“…….”

Jiang Jianming pressed the corner of his forehead.

He now believed what Garcia said, that when he’s with the people of the Black Shark Base, he’s prone to losing control of his emotions.

But isn’t this simply a pure lack of love and clinginess?

Isn’t this simply making a big fuss?

That, you knew you would make a fuss, and yet you still let me leave early??

“I’m sorry, Miss Bei.” There was no other way, Jiang Jianming resignedly took off the earpiece from the wrist device and put it on, then said to Bei Man’er, “I might have to…”

But before he could finish speaking, at the opposite corner, three figures suddenly turned around.

The leader was a young man with a white face who was well-dressed, he exaggeratedly smiled and said, “Miss Bei? isn’t this Miss Bei Man’er?”

The young man’s tone was overly straightforward and aggressive, and several passers-by around him looked sideways. Jiang Jianming couldn’t help but pause slightly when he wanted to call Garcia.

Bei Man’er’s pretty face suddenly turned cold, she took a step forward, and intentionally or unintentionally stood in front of Jiang Jianming. She raised her eyebrows, and her tone of voice changed, “Young Master Brandon, it seems that you are in a good mood today.”

A peculiar aura suddenly opened up centered around these two people, and an invisible hostility pierced out like steel needles, immediately permeating this bustling street.

On West Galaxy Street, a young person with “good deeds” wanted to record a video with his wrist device. The companion immediately slapped his hand away in horror, “Fool, don’t cause trouble!”

The companion lowered his voice and whispered, “That’s the second son of the Brandon family and the eldest lady of the Bei family. It’s not something we can watch. Hurry up.”

This was a confrontation between a noble young master and young lady, a confrontation between high-ranking families.

Over there, Young Master Brandon had not said anything yet, while one of the two attendants behind him played a role of observing and responding to the situation quickly.

One of the young men shrugged his shoulders and smiled maliciously, scanned Bei Man’er and Jiang Jianming twice with obscene eyes, and said with a grin, “Miss Bei, even if you are dumped by the Young Master of the Tang family, you can’t possibly be looking for a disabled human civilian to play with?”

“Brandon!” Bei Man’er let out a loud roar. “Take care of your dog and clean that mouth of his in front of my friend.”

As she spoke, her neck lifted like a proud swan. A sense of awe-inspiring nobility was naturally revealed.

This was another kind of edge that was completely different from her valiant and heroic appearance in Silver Big Dipper.

Young Master Brandon gave a light laugh, turned his head and said to his followers, “Martin, how could you be so disrespectful?” The next sentence was, “I don’t even think about it, how could it be possible for someone with Miss Bei’s status to really socialize with civilians—or with a disabled civilian at that?”

Jiang Jianming raised his eyes lightly, and glanced at this Brandon.

Troublesome things came. He hadn’t even coaxed his Little Highness yet, which made him unhappy.

However, the next moment, his wrist device flickered slightly.

Accompanied by the “beep beep” prompt tone, the text showing an incoming call lit up.
