QT: Grace To Grass Counterattack System

Three days later, He Yuan ran into Yang Zhi right outside his room. His eyes narrowed.

"Ah, Xue\'er. What a coincidence." Yang Zhi said with a warm smile.

\'...\' He Yuan scrutinized the man with a blank expression. What coincidence? The other rooms in the hallway were uninhabited and at the end of the hallway was a dead end so Yang Zhi could not claim that he was just taking a shortcut. What was up with the man? He cleared his throat. "You must here to give me my money."

Yang Zhi froze for a moment before taking a deep breath and saying through gritted teeth. "...Yes." He had sold off a lot of his possessions and had even taken out of the possessions of his children to be able to scrape the money together. Just looking at the amount he was about to give Yang Xue made his heart ache.

A mandron did not need that much money!

After a couple of deep breaths, Yang Zhi fiddled with his bracelet and Yang Xue\'s bracelet made a \'DING\' sound. He Yuan looked down. Yang Zhi had sent the entire 11 million credits but then... He sent an extra 100K credits.

He Yuan frowned and wasted no time in sending the excess cash back. "No need for extra." Next, he operated his wheelchair to move past Yang Zhi.

Yang Zhi\'s eyes flashed and he extended a leg to stop He Yuan\'s movement. "No need to be in a rush. Your dad just gave you extra pocket money to spoil yourself with. Getting a prosthetic limb costs so much, it\'s not a bad idea to have a little more."

He scrutinized Yang Xue\'s face as he spoke. If not that the piece of news he\'d received earlier was from a reliable source, he would never have believed that this dumb brat had actually been in an intimate relationship with Ding Weimin and yet the boy had kept the news from him!

The Dings had sent this outsider son of his away, not because he\'d seduced Ding Weimin but because the boy had actually managed to land the man and they were alarmed! His eyes flashed with greed.

Initially, he had been quite disgusted but then when he thought things through, his heart trembled. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity to pull the Dings over once more!

If he was able to flawlessly manipulate things then the power of the Dings would be free for him and his children to use however they wished.

The most satisfying thing was the fact that he didn\'t even have to work too hard. Why? well because... This was a real life case of star crossed lovers!

General Ding must be in love with Yang Xue but is unable to go against his family. If he, Yang Zhi, played his cards right and managed to get Yang Xue and Ding Weimin together once more, the relationship between the two families would be seamlessly repaired and the future of his children would be boundless.

Although, he had to look for a way to keep it a secret from the Yang parents and the Third marshal until everything was stable. If the Ding parents and the Third marshal still dared to forbid them after that, he would just publicize the entire issue.

Although there was a time when homosexuality flourished on Earth, after the pollution disaster and the dwindling of the population, homosexualism was banned to preserve the race. When Earth was moved to the Plexar system, the humans focused on picking themselves back up and nurturing their relations with the andronians.

With the new found peace, people began to openly pursue their preferred love once more but then it was discovered that the androns were very much against same sex pairing so homosexuality was suppressed again as the humans were still weak at the time.

Now, the power difference between the two planets was not that large and people were beginning to become open about their sexuality and activists were beginning to spring up once more. Although they were not very popular.

Ding Weimin was the darling of the Federation and Yang Xue was a mandron. The pairing was definitely going to receive more backlash than any other homosexual pairing -especially from the women who had their sights on the hero- but nothing touched the hearts of people more than a tearful tale of star crossed lovers.

One was a lonely man at the top with the admiration of billions and the other was a little mandron helplessly born with a defect. So different yet they seamlessly fit together like two jigsaw pieces.

They did nothing wrong but just because they were males and in love, they were so cruelly torn apart by the family of the man at the top. The whole affair was so tear jerking that Yang Zhi felt his insides burn with excitement.

He could already see a future where this little homosexual brought him glory. With the Ding family influence, what could he not do? What could he not become? He would advance so smoothly in his career that in the end he might even become... One of the Marshals of the Federation!

Most importantly, if his planned failed then he could just cleanly absolve himself from blame and backlash. He could play the role of a loving father whose son had been mislead by a scum man who had influence.

With this story, the other influence families that were against the Dings would surely come to him for cooperation. The amount of benefits he could recieve from them might not necessarily be less than the ones he could receive from the Dings.

it was a win-win situation either way!

Yang Zhi\'s eyes glowed as he brought his head closer to He Yuan with an excited smile. "Xue\'er, do you have anyone you like?"

\'...\' He Yuan blinked twice and leaned backwards. He\'d watched in bewilderment as a hundred different emotions centering on excitement flashed in Yang Zhi\'s eyes for the past minute and he was admittedly uncomfortable with the energy he was being presented with so early in the day.

888 chuckled. [Shouldn\'t you be more concerned about the creepy question?]

He Yuan frowned at Yang Zhi. "What do you mean?"

Yang Zhi straightened with a frustrated sigh. He forgot he was talking to a mandron. He folded his arms behind his back. "I\'ll just go straight to the point. I know you and General Ding are in love with each other and as your father... I totally support you. It doesn\'t matter who you are or what gender you are, everyone should be free to be with who they love."

\'...\' Now both He Yuan and 888 were confused. What did they just hear? He Yuan tugged at his ear. This situation was all sorts of wrong because Yang Zhi\'s badly hidden disgusted expression did not match the words coming out of his mouth. Besides, he might not like special one number two but... Just Where did Yang Zhi keep Jin Qi in all this? He cleared his throat. "He has a girlfriend."

Yang Zhi waved dismissively. "All that is irrelevant in the face of true love." His face twisted a bit when he recalled it was \'true love\' between males.

He Yuan raised a brow. He was not even surprised that Yang Zhi\'s view on love was so skewered. The man was practically holding Wei Xiaoqing hostage in the Yang home!

Looking at Yang Xue\'s straight face, Yang Zhi nodded. He wanted this mandron son of his to use his barely functioning brain to think about his words deeply. Next he moved to pat He Yuan on the shoulder but then quickly changed his mind and touched the back of the wheelchair instead. "Quickly rush to the hospital and get the surgery over with. We have little time. This father would definitely help you... get your love back." Then he walked away.

888 raised a brow. [Is it just me or is he acting like you have some sort of infectious disease? We didn\'t miss anything in the storyline did we?]

He Yuan stared at the spot Yang Zhi retreated in with a slight frown before straightening on the wheelchair and pinching the middle of his forehead. How did Yang Zhi suddenly find out Yang Xue used to be together with Ding Weimin and just what nonsense was the scum trying to come up with?
