Chapter 145 Every message received a reply from Zhang Fu.
"This card..." Ling Suyu frowned slightly. "Xiao Mu, where are the clothes I changed out of last night? There's something in the pocket."
"It should have been taken to the laundry room. I'll ask Allison." Wen Shumu raised his hand to initiate a call with Allison.
Allison quickly brought over what had been left in the pocket of the clothes: a gold bank card, exactly the same as the one Blackfire had given to Wen Shumu.
Ling Suyu leaned against the headboard and placed the two cards together: "I found this card when I was getting dressed yesterday. I asked Loren, and he said it was for me. I thought it was from His Majesty."
After receiving the card, Wen Shumu specifically checked it and found that the golden card was indeed made of gold and issued by the Tsiga Interstellar Bank. The application requirements were extremely strict, and it was said that no more than a thousand people in the entire interstellar space held this card.
"It seems... this is also pocket money given to you by Black Firefly." Wen Shumu looked at Ling Suyu with a hint of hesitation, "The person who saved you was probably Black Firefly."
Ling Suyu's pupils contracted slightly: "Why do you say that?"
Wen Shumu recounted everything that happened on the Imperial Star while Ling Suyu was away, including Wen Bingxuan asking him to be the head of the Wen family, Hei Ying's assassination attempt on Yi Hao, and the story of Hei Ying and Ling Yun.
Throughout his narration, he subtly observed Ling Suyu's expression, and only continued speaking after confirming that Ling Suyu did not show any obvious discomfort.
"When he left, he said he would find you and that if I needed anything, I could contact 'Xiaoyu Ai Mumu'." Wen Shumu's mouth was dry as he finally got to the last sentence, "He was the number one gift-giver for our live stream that day."
Ling Suyu reached for a water glass on the bedside table, watched Wen Shumu take a few sips, and remained calm.
Wen Shumu knew that Ling Suyu was good at hiding his emotions, and said softly, "Brother, you don't seem surprised?"
Ling Suyu slowly said, "Last time in Ninoto, he helped the First Legion. Compared to someone suddenly appearing without warning, if it's Black Firefly... there's still some clue to follow."
Wen Shumu had no idea that Hei Ying had already met Ling Suyu.
He didn't say anything more. Even though he thought Hei Ying was a good person, he wouldn't praise him in front of Ling Suyu.
No one has the right to evaluate their parents on behalf of the child, especially in the case of Ling Suyu, who completely lacked parental companionship during his childhood.
Wen Shumu pulled the blanket up to Ling Suyu's waist and said, "You should lie down properly. It seems you need to get an injection today. I'll go contact Banks."
Ling Suyu said gently, "Actually, I think I can get out of bed."
"No, no, no!" Wen Shumu firmly stopped him.
Ling Suyu's eyes softened, and he smiled helplessly: "Then I'll have to trouble Xiaomu to take care of me."
Wen Shumu nodded with feigned seriousness, but the moment he met the Alpha's gentle gaze, he broke down instantly, blinked twice, and suddenly leaned down to give Ling Suyu a quick kiss on the cheek.
Ling Suyu was slightly taken aback. Their eyes met like magnets, and they smiled at each other.
*
Wen Shumu sat behind his desk, glancing at Alpha on the bed every now and then to make sure he was still there before looking back at the terminal with peace of mind.
He was originally sitting here to contact Banks, but when he opened his terminal, a bunch of messages from Ling Suyu popped up first!
[Ling Suyu: I'm back.]
[Ling Suyu: I miss you too, my wife.]
[Ling Suyu: I came back late, you should be angry.]
[Ling Suyu: You've lost a lot of weight, not just a little. If my clothes are too big for you, I'll buy some smaller sizes later.]
[Ling Suyu: Don't go smash the statue yourself, it'll be tiring. Let Allison do it.]
[Ling Suyu: Is your cold better? I'll have Banks take another look at you later.]
……
Wen Shumu finally received a reply to every message he had sent.
The reply came in the early hours of the morning, after he had fallen asleep the previous night.
Ling Suyu replied very seriously. Starting at 2 a.m., he replied to all the messages, and it was almost 4 a.m. by the time he finished.
Wen Shumu looked at each line, and as he looked, he quietly turned his head and wiped his face with his sleeve.
My brother is back, that's wonderful.
His bleak world was finally illuminated again.
Banks arrived shortly after receiving the message.
But... he didn't come alone.
When Allison saw the Emperor and Empress following Banks in the lobby on the first floor, he was so shocked that he almost dropped the fruit plate he was holding.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Highness!"
Allison quickly put the fruit plate aside and gave a proper bow.
The emperor and empress were dressed in simple everyday clothes, looking like an elegant aristocratic couple.
Yi Hao smiled and said, "Don't panic. Last night's banquet was too rushed. We just came to see Su Yu."
Allison quickly turned to the side, signaling to the waiter with his eyes to inform the marshal and his wife, and said, "Please come with me."
Unfortunately, the waiter didn't understand and thought the butler had told him to prepare to entertain the distinguished guest, so he followed far behind.
So when Wen Shumu opened the door that had been knocked on, he found himself standing directly in front of the two most distinguished people in the empire, dressed in a beige loungewear.
Wen Shumu froze for a few seconds, which amused Ren Yi.
Ren Yi said, "Shu Mu, don't be nervous. We just didn't give you any advance notice. Just relax..."
"ox!"
Ren Yi was interrupted by Yi Hao's exclamation when he was only halfway through his sentence.
The emperor had already slipped into the room and was marveling at the marshal and his wife's enormous bed.
"Wow, this bed is really nice. Which master craftsman made it? Even the palace doesn't have a bed this big. Maybe I should get one too? Oh, it was Allison who found it. Could you contact him again for me..."
Ling Suyu: "..."
Your Majesty is too noisy and wants to wear earplugs.
Yi Hao shouted for a long time before finally sitting down. His actions clearly livened up the atmosphere in the room.
"You seem to be in good spirits. When can you return to the legion?"
Upon hearing Yi Hao's words, Wen Shumu immediately tensed up, fearing that Ling Suyu was about to do something dangerous again.
Yi Hao said, "Without you, the awarding ceremony cannot proceed."
Wen Shumu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Ren Yi noticed all his subtle expressions, and the Empress's lips curved upwards even further.
"The doctor said I can't get out of bed right now," Ling Suyu said, passing the question to Banks.
Banks, who had been lost in thought, was suddenly called on and had no choice but to tell the truth: "That's right. The marshal is not only injured, but after living in that desolate environment for so many days, his body has suffered too much damage and he has low blood sugar. In this situation, it is best to rest for half a month and take good care of himself."
Yi Hao nodded: "Then let's talk about it in two weeks. Anyway, there's nothing else going on right now."
They then brought up the story of Ling Suyu being rescued.
Yi Hao confirmed Wen Shumu's guess and said to Ling Suyu, "It was Hei Ying who sent you to the palace."
"You were unconscious at the time, but thanks to the professional medical team from Imperial Star, your life wasn't in great danger. He didn't trust me and didn't want to stay any longer, so he brought you here and left."
At this point, Yi Hao suddenly turned to look at Wen Shumu and softly said, "I'm sorry."
