Starting from the Planetary Governor - Chapter 342

342. Chapter 341, Fofana

On the Fofana Wing Star, a prosperous hotel has now stopped operating.

Gu and Fofana have completely booked this place for the engagement ceremony in the near future.

Many people who came from far away specifically to attend this ceremony have already stayed in the hotel.

Among them are many descendants of the Fofana family.

A group of young people wearing naval uniforms or naval academy uniforms gathered together to chat:

“What do you say is the representative of the young generation of Fofana? Isn’t it going to get married?”

“It depends on the brothers in the future!”

“I think Ruota is very good. You have to shoulder everyone’s hopes.”

“It’s still a long way to go, a long way to go…”

“At least you won’t ‘marry’ someone else, right? Hahaha…”

The young people were very excited, their chests were straight, and they talked about the recent stories in the family. It’s not necessarily that there is much malice, but the original jealousy has more or less been vented through this incident.

This is normal.

Among the group, not to mention those who are still studying hard in the Naval Academy, those who have already been appointed, the highest rank is only a major.

A major of this age is already quite remarkable in the naval sequence. She is still young, and with the support of her family, if she can get more years and experience, and if she can make some military achievements, it is not impossible to expect a general rank in the future.

But this kind of thing also depends on who you are compared with.

There is a woman of similar age in the family who is already a general.

It is hard not to be jealous.

They don’t think much about anything else, but just complain that the Yu family is too partial and gives Ye Lishi too many preferential treatments.

After graduating from the Naval Academy, why did everyone have to work their way up from the grassroots officers, but Ye Lishia could get the position of acting captain? Why was a stage specially built for her, an exercise was held, and she was allowed to jump another level just by relying on the results of the naval exercise, becoming the captain of a large cruiser like Quintet and obtaining the rank of brigadier general?

Now, they are using their family’s connections in the upper echelons to brag wildly, and directly promoted Ye Lishia to a star sent from heaven, a genius fleet commander who is rare in the world…

Come on!

Such an opportunity, even a pig can fly up, and I can definitely do better than Ye Lishia!

How many of the young descendants of the Fofana family would have such thoughts?

I don’t know, but at least the people gathered here probably have some more or less.

However, these jealous words are not easy to say. Ye Lishia is indeed a representative of the younger generation. Her status is here, and she is no longer on the same level as them. Saying those words will only make people laugh.

But now, Ye Lishia is going to get married, and some words can be said in another way with this excuse.

During the chat, someone suddenly pulled his companion next to him and made a look.

The others followed his gaze and saw a young woman in the dress of an imperial navy rear admiral, who was walking not far away.

Everyone immediately shut up.

Even if it was under the pretext of Ye Lishia getting married, some things could be said in private, but not in person – they didn’t have the courage.

But Ye Lishia walked straight towards them.

She held her head high, and her neck, which extended from the tight neckline of her dress, was white and slender. She looked down at everyone with arrogance and contempt, and the star of the general on her epaulettes shone brightly.

Some people felt uncomfortable being looked at by her, and felt guilty, so they said awkwardly, “Sister…”

As soon as the title came out, Ye Lishia waved her hand.

“Major, you have to call me general.”

“Yes.” The major with the highest rank among the young men instinctively stood at attention, saluted, and said, “Hello, General!”

Ye Lishia’s eyes immediately looked at the others.

Everyone she saw could only stand at attention and salute.

This scene, in the eyes of others, did not feel out of place at all.

A group of junior officers of the navy, when facing a general, stood at attention and lined up to wait for the general’s lecture. Is there any problem?

Looking at these cousins and junior officers in front of her, Ye Lixia wanted to say something sarcastic, such as mocking them. They didn’t do well in the military academy, and they didn’t perform well in the army. Even if the family wanted to support them, they were all a bunch of useless people.

She was qualified to say so. They

were all from the same family, so is there any difference in the starting point? The power of the family helped a lot. For example, the Naval Academy, which was extremely difficult for civilians and normal people to enter, was entered by the children of Fofana, and they were all in the top class.

But within the family, aren’t everyone the same?

And I, Ye Lixia, was outstanding in all aspects of the Naval Academy, and many of them were the first in the same class, and they have been maintained for many years, throughout my entire school career. In this way, she has the confidence to get the qualification of an outstanding graduate of the Naval Academy, and can strive to wear the rank of colonel and become the acting captain after graduation.

Her cousins, whose grades in school were all at the bottom, how could they compare with her?

And the military exercise that made Ye Lishia jump from acting captain to brigadier general was not specially prepared for her. It was just such an opportunity. She entered, the family set up the stage, and she could become the protagonist because of her singing skills. It is the foundation of one’s own ability that can be effective after the efforts of the family. She was not the only one from the

Fofana family who participated in the exercise. Why didn’t you little brothers sing anything?

Ye Lishia never denied that the Fofana family brought her everything. Without the family, she would not even be able to enter the Naval Academy; even if she entered, even if she got all A’s, without the family, even if she got an outstanding graduate, she could not directly become a captain. At best, she could get the status of a school officer and start to gain experience from a certain position on a starship.

However, others can say that only the young people in the family like her are not worthy of saying so.

You have the same conditions, but you can’t do even one tenth of what I can do. How dare you be so sarcastic here?

However, in the end, Ye Lixia still said nothing.

When she was about to say these words, she looked at the young people standing in front of her, who seemed a little uneasy, and suddenly felt that it was very meaningless.

It was meaningless to bully these people who were far inferior to her level;

it was also meaningless to these useless younger generations in the family;

the words they said about “marrying” made her feel even more meaningless.

All the words that she wanted to say disappeared in a sigh.

She waved her hand and called for dismissal.

The young people saluted as if they had been pardoned, and then ran away.

And Ye Lishia no longer cared about these little guys who would use this matter to make up some words about her “showing off”.

She was quite bored and walked from the hotel lobby to a temporary office.

She knocked on the door, got permission, and walked in.

An old man was sitting in the office.

He was the pillar of the family, the cornerstone. He was called Old Fofana by the outsiders. He was a war hero who retired from the Imperial Navy with the rank of Admiral.

He had been retired for many years, but his influence still existed in the Pegasus Fleet and the Imperial Navy in the entire star field.

Ye Lishia also admired this great-grandfather.

Although, the old Fofana now looked like an ordinary kind old man.

She sat down in front of her great-grandfather.

Old Fofana looked up and said, “Are you in a bad mood?”

Ye Lishia hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.

There was nothing to hide.

“Because of the engagement?”

“…Yes.” Ye Licia said, “I understand that a family like ours needs to establish and expand our influence through marriage. It’s just that I thought that I no longer needed to be a candidate for marriage to show my value.”

“Of course.” Old Fofana said, “Of course not, you are the brightest pearl in Fofana, you don’t need to prove your worth, you are the value in yourself. The family will do its best to help you become a general, and will help you take on higher positions in the future, and hope that you will lead the entire family to go further in the future. If you don’t want this marriage, of course you have a choice. Now I can tell Ms. Wang Qi to end it all.”

Having said that, Ye Licia hesitated:

“…No, that’s not necessary. I just…”

At this point, she rubbed her hair in annoyance.

Old Fofana sighed and said, “Look, little Ye Lisia, this is our fate. We carry the responsibility on our shoulders, and even if no one really forces us, we will still carry it all on our shoulders involuntarily.”

“Little Ye Lisia, you have to remember that our Fofana family has never been good at fighting for power. We have always dedicated our family to the empire and placed ourselves in the sea of stars to establish our prestige. The foundation of our existence is our ability and our merits.”

“But for a long time, I could only watch with disappointment that the younger generations are becoming less and less like their predecessors. The family should have been a help to you, but now it seems that it has become a bondage to many people. They were raised too ‘well’ in the family, so they can’t withstand the wind and rain of the outside world at all.”

“I am very pleased with your appearance, little Ye Lishi. You have inherited the style of your predecessors. You are the best Fofana among the younger generation, and Gu Hang seems to be the best one in their Gu family. There is no saying that you will marry into the Gu family, or that he will become a Fofana. What Wang Qi and I mean is very simple. In the future, we need to ‘combine’, a deeper combination.”

“The situation in the Tianma star region will become more and more chaotic, and the war between the Dragon Eagle star region and the iron-toothed green-skinned aliens will become more and more intense. Everything in the future will change dramatically. But, my child, I may not see that day. And the Gu family, and us, have natural conditions for combination.”

“Let the best people from both sides come together, we need to weather the storm together.”

The words of the great-grandfather made Ye Lishi absent-minded.

Old Fofana didn’t say anything more, he just pushed a document on the table forward.

Ye Lixia asked, “What is this?”

Old Fofana smiled and said, “Marriage will never be your shackles. Take a look at this first.”

She picked up the document, glanced at it, and looked at Old Fofana in surprise.

“Great-grandfather…this…you…do you suggest that I accept it?”

“I don’t make any suggestions. To be honest, I don’t know whether it is good or bad. It’s up to you to decide.”

Ye Lixia was in a great dilemma.

“Don’t rush to give me an answer now. Maybe you should discuss it with your fiancé.”

“Fiancé…” Ye Lixia was still embarrassed when she heard this title.

…

“I don’t make any suggestions. To be honest, I don’t know whether it is good or bad. It’s up to you to decide.”

Gu Hang said to Ye Lixia.

He just arrived at Feiyi Star today and checked into the hotel.

There is no custom that the two parties cannot meet before the engagement ceremony. After Gu Hang settled down here, the first person he met was his mother Wang Qi, and the second person he met was his future daughter-in-law, Ye Lixia Fofana.

When the two met, the atmosphere between them was a little unfamiliar, even awkward.

But Gu Hang was good at this. He used the topic of fighting side by side before to guide the atmosphere between the two to normal.

Then, Ye Lixia took the opportunity to mention one thing:

she now had an “opportunity”, or a “challenge”. The Navy Headquarters of the Dragon Eagle Star Region wanted to transfer half of the Pegasus Fleet to leave the defense zone of Pegasus and several surrounding star regions and go to the star regions occupied by the Iron-toothed Greenskin Aliens to participate in the Greenskin War.

This matter is not small.

In the past, the Pegasus Fleet also received several transfer orders to participate in the Greenskin War. Almost every time, the war reached the point where the Pegasus Fleet had to be transferred, which meant that the intensity of the war had risen to a certain level.

That means the risk has become very high.

The Iron-toothed Greenskins are not the original Greenskins. They have dozens of plundering fleets and large warships.

After Ye Lishia led the team to the occupied star zone, she was not only doing safe work such as ground support, but she might have to fight a head-on decisive battle with the greenskin fleet.

In a naval battle, there is no way to survive if you lose, and you will definitely die if the ship explodes.

This is a real war that will kill people, and it is not a joke.

Ye Lishia can choose not to go. She is a star general trained by the Fofana family and the hope of the next generation. She cannot be given away casually

. But at the same time, this is also an opportunity to earn merit.

She told Gu Hang about her entanglement in this matter.

And Gu Hang said the same thing as old Fofana, leaving the choice entirely to Ye Lishia herself.

Then, he added: “Although I’m not sure, I think that if you want to go, I fully support you. Because this is you, this is the Ye Lishia that I know and admire.”

Ye Lishia smiled like a flower.
