Chapter 13 A Plant of Grass
Chapter 13 A Plant of Grass
When Noel came home, his mother, Dana, heard him enter the door and rushed out to greet him.
"Little Noel, are you okay——" Before finishing speaking, she covered her mouth in shock at Noel's colorful face, "How could this happen?! Brooke's parents called to apologize just now. I thought it was just a small accident."
Thinking back now, Dai Na realized that the other party seemed to have been avoiding the most serious and neglecting the most important things, and didn't mention the baby's situation at all.
She has a relatively simple temper, and was surrounded by the other party's few words, and even smiled and said that she would help Brooke convey her apology.
Dai Na's face changed instantly, "What happened? It wasn't an accident, right?"
She is not a fool, how could it be possible for Noel to have dye all over her head and face in an ordinary accident, it was obviously splashed on by someone deliberately!
Noel pursed his lips, and really didn't want to cover for Brooke, so he said, "Mother, don't worry about it, I will handle this matter myself."
On the way home, he had already sent a complaint email to the teaching office, and it would be better for the school to come forward.
Dai Na said unhappily, "No, I'll contact your father right away and ask him to seek justice for you!"
"Mother, don't." Noel hurriedly grabbed her.
"why?"
"Listen to me." Knowlton paused, and helped Dana to sit on the sofa next to him, "There is no need for my father to get involved in the small conflict between Brooke and me. He is the patriarch of the family, and there are many people outside People are watching his every move, and the company has been so busy recently, so don't tell him such trivial things."
What Noel didn't say was that the Brooke family owned the largest alloy production base in Shining Star, and Hayes' family business had always supplied the alloys from their family.
Dana is just a simple housewife, and she doesn't know that there are so many twists and turns in it.In the past, Noel would find a way to hide it from her when he was bullied, but today it is so serious that he really can't hide it.
Dana frowned in confusion. She felt that what her son said made sense, but her instinct as a mother made her grasp the point again.
"Then forget it? Baby, tell me, what's going on with Brooke, has he been bullying you at school?"
Noel shook his head, "No, maybe it's because of this match, he couldn't get angry for a while, just wait until he figured it out."
"Then why hasn't he figured it out?! Just let him bully you like this?"
Noel shrugged his shoulders and said as a bachelor, "We are about to graduate, he will leave Guangyaoxing sooner or later, we will never meet again, mother, don't worry."
"Besides, I have already complained to the teaching office about this matter, and the school will deal with it."
After hearing this, Dana calmed down a little, and compromised, "Okay, since you insist on solving it yourself, mother can promise you not to tell your father for the time being. But—"
Dana emphasized her tone, "If there is another time, I will let Brooke know that our Hayes family is not easy to mess with!"
Nuoer held the field and nodded desperately, then took her arm affectionately, kissed her deliberately stiff face, and said with a smile, "Thank you, mother, you are the best."
Seeing her cute baby, Dana couldn't help laughing, "Baby, go back to your room and take care of the things on your face, and you have to go to the main star to meet Major General Gaskell tomorrow, remember to dress up nicely .”
She didn't know that the dye on Nuo Er's face could not be washed off in a short time, otherwise it would not be so easy for him to slip through.
Noel nodded, "Yes!"
That night, Noel spent an hour scrubbing in the bathroom, barely getting a layer of skin off his body, and still failing to get the dye out of his hair, face, and neck.
His dark green hair has been dyed spiky yellows and reds, making him look like an old traffic light.The face is even more exaggerated, with red, yellow, blue, and brown dyes, completely unable to see the original handsome appearance.
With this weird image on his face, Noel stuck out his tongue in front of the mirror, then made a few expressions, and successfully took a step back in fright.
"...Forget it, that's it."
Putting aside the little bit of unexplainable depression in his heart, Noel drank a bottle of nutritional supplements, climbed into bed early, and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Noel slipped out of the house while Dana was out for a run.Fortunately, his father and four older brothers have been leaving early and returning late recently, otherwise he wouldn't have slipped away so much.
Noel sent a message to his mother after climbing on the unmanned aerial vehicle he had agreed to, saying that he had to find a friend first, and she didn't need to send it.
Dai Na slowed down, clicked on the terminal to read the information that just came in, and always felt that something was wrong, "This child, is it because you are nervous..."
Except for his father and four older brothers, their little baby Noel seems to have never been released from other alphas. It is understandable that he is a little nervous on a date with the alpha matched by the system.
"Which friend..." Dai Na muttered, wanting to make a video interview with her son, but she gave up after thinking about it—the little baby was already nervous, so she better not ask too much to put pressure on him.
……
Noel wore a mask and hat, and sat on the starship in full armor. Fortunately, Xinggang can scan the residents' irises and facial features to confirm their identity, otherwise he might not be able to board the ship.
Gaskell made an appointment at ten o'clock in the morning, but he was waiting on Central Avenue after eight o'clock.
Because of Duke Shelley, he is considered a celebrity in the empire regardless of size, and he certainly cannot just appear on the streets where people come and go.
But he doesn't want to wear a simulator either. The most ordinary appearance simulated by the simulator is better than him. When Noel gets used to the simulator and sees his real appearance, he may not be able to accept it. It's better to use his own face from the beginning. Contact Noel.
So Gaskell used a peaked cap to cover up his trademark short fiery red hair, and added a pair of large-frame sunglasses to cover half of his face.
When Noel came to find him, what he saw was an alpha wearing sunglasses and a peaked cap, condescending, staring at him expressionlessly——
Noel: "..."
What a devil date this is!
The alphas that Noel has seen are all tall, mighty, enthusiastic and sunny, but Gaskell is the complete opposite type.
He was a head taller than him, about two meters, about the same as his alpha brothers, but the muscles on his body were far behind.
He has a thin figure and a gloomy temperament, which inexplicably gives people the feeling that his temper is not very good.
Noel carefully moved one meter in front of Gaskell, and offered to apologize, "Sorry, I'm late, have you waited long?"
Gaskell took a look at him when he heard the words, but didn't ask any more questions when he saw that he was tightly wrapped.As for pheromones, the ownerless Omega can't smell them even after taking inhibitors. Anyway, the matching system says he likes them, so he must like them.
Gaskell glanced sideways at the big clock at the top of the square, and said without any ups and downs in his voice, "It's not too late, I'm here early."
"Ah?" Noel was frightened by his cold tone, he didn't react for a moment, he paused for two seconds to understand, "Oh, yes, yes, we have an appointment at ten o'clock, hehe..."
Noel grinned.
"..." "..."
The two stood there quietly for a few minutes, and the atmosphere became more and more awkward...
Noel took a peek at the statue-like alpha, and said, "I, shall we find a place to sit down and talk?"
"Yeah." Gaskell nodded reservedly, pointing to the shop ahead, "Go over there and buy whatever you want, I have money."
The corner of Noel's mouth twitched, did this alpha listen to him?
How can there be such benefits in dating rich people? Forgive him, a country bumpkin who doesn’t understand the popularity of the imperial capital, but he just does what he wants, "Oh, okay."
Seeing Omega nodding, Gaskell heaved a sigh of relief, strode forward two steps, suddenly remembered the warning on the Internet, froze his figure, and turned his head to wait for the petite Omega.
Nuoer was under a lot of pressure in an instant, and took a few steps to catch up with him, almost tripping over him.
"Be careful."
Gaskell reflexively wanted to help, but seeing that he was standing still, he turned his arm and inserted it into his trouser pocket.
Noel: "..."
Feel like a scourge.
The two arrived at the door of the first shop silently all the way. Gaskell deliberately slowed down this time, but there was no situation where Noel couldn't keep up.
Standing at the door, Gaskell raised his chin towards the luxuriously decorated shop, and said as casually as possible, "Go in, you can buy anything you like, you're welcome."
"……Oh."
I made up my mind not to do anything, and always felt that something terrible would happen.
This is a men's clothing store. By the way, it also sells some metal accessories, body armor, and even chain belts for hanging weapons, leather goods and other items.Although some people have researched the space button 500 years ago, those are things that only the rich can afford, and most people still buy these things to equip weapons.
For example, when Nuoer went out this time, he borrowed his father's space button, which is only about two square meters in size, but the price is staggeringly expensive.
Noel turned around for a while, and stood for a while longer in front of a jewelry counter.Because he felt that the ring on the counter was quite similar to his father's space button.Then he glanced at the price tag, and the string of zeros on it stunned him!
"Like this?" Gaskell's voice sounded behind him. For some reason, Noel felt that the heat in his voice had increased a lot.
A real clerk in a luxury store, a beta woman quickly smiled and said, "Here is the latest space ring in our store. The style you are looking at has only one main star, and the space inside has reached [-] square meters. It is completely It can hold a personal aircraft. Moreover, the design of this ring is exquisite and exquisite, and it is also inlaid with emerald gemstones, which is most suitable for Omega."
Noel trembled, quickly looked away, and shook his head decisively, "I don't like it, it doesn't suit me!"
It is possible to sell all the movable and immovable properties of their family to be able to afford this ring. How could it be suitable for a poor man like him!
Seeing that he really didn't like it, Gaskell thought for a while and suggested, "There's a private club nearby, and the ring inside is a bit interesting, why don't I take you to see it?"
Private clubs are definitely more expensive!
Noel stared at him, "No, I really don't want to see the ring."
The trenches in the imperial capital are really different, they are simply inhumane!
