417: It’s all because of my brother’s awesomeness (45k words second update)

Because this incident involved disguised aliens, Lin Yang not only checked domestically, but also conducted a full-area scan of the entire Blue Star.

"No aliens."

The inspection results made Lin Yang breathe a sigh of relief.

There were no disguised aliens on the entire Blue Star, which meant that Blue Star was still relatively safe.

"Now that the entire Blue Star and even the Earth-Moon space have been folded by Master, those disguised aliens have even less chance of being discovered entering Blue Star, so I don't have to worry too much about the safety of my home."

Lin Yang thought, returning home at the same time.

Since he was back, he naturally had to go home.

As for his sudden return this time, his mother, Zhang Fang, was naturally overjoyed and repeatedly asked him how long he could stay at home this time.

Regarding this question... "Ahem, Mom, I really can't say. If there's a mission, I might have to leave at any time." Lin Yang avoided his mother's gaze, turning his head slightly as he spoke.

"Ah? On standby at any time? Will you be in danger on an alien planet?" Zhang Fang immediately became worried.

"Don't worry, Mom, I'll protect myself. I'm very powerful now." Lin Yang didn't tell Zhang Fang what was happening now, so as not to make her more worried.

"Alas, you scoundrel, so restless. When will you bring me a daughter-in-law?" Zhang Fang stopped asking more questions upon hearing this, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Uh... Mom, I'm still young..." Lin Yang blinked.

He never expected that his mother would actually urge him to marry at this time!

Zhang Fang immediately glared at him: "You're still young? You're still young my foot! You're over twenty, and in a few years, you'll be thirty. Others your age already have kids who can buy soy sauce, but you, you don't even have a girlfriend!"

"..." Lin Yang was speechless.

What kind of logic was this?

Thirty in a few years?

Is that how you rush someone?

"According to your logic, why don't you say I'll be in the ground in a few decades..." Lin Yang couldn't help but mutter softly.

"You little rascal, what did you say??" Zhang Fang was instantly furious.

"Ahem, Mom, I just said it casually, just kidding..." Lin Yang quickly took a step back, smiling awkwardly.

"Hmph, stop talking nonsense with me. I'm telling you, He Ming is about to get married. He's a few months younger than you. When are you going to find me a daughter-in-law?"

Zhang Fang gave Lin Yang an annoyed look, delivering news that left him dumbfounded.

"What? Mom, what did you say? Who's getting married? Is it He Ming? He Fatty? I didn't mishear, did I??"

Lin Yang was instantly stunned.

Dead Fatty is getting married??

"Nonsense, do you know a second person named He Ming?"

Zhang Fang glared at him:

"It's good that you came back in time this time. Xiao Ming originally wanted to wait for you to come back, but he couldn't contact you at all. He waited and waited, but you didn't return. The girl's family was also rushing things, so they got engaged a while ago, and the wedding will be in three days. Your return this time is just in time, and now Xiao Ming has no regrets."

"..." Lin Yang was truly shocked.

After only a short time, this Dead Fatty was actually getting married?!

This... was a bit sudden!

"How did he get married so quickly? Isn't he still not graduated yet?" Lin Yang was puzzled.

The last time he saw He Ming, this guy hadn't mentioned having a girlfriend, but in a blink of an eye, he was getting married, which truly surprised him.

"I think you've really lost track of time at home while you've been away. It's been four or five years since you first left until now. Xiao Ming is a graduate student now. Let alone getting married, it's normal for him to have a child!" Zhang Fang was also very helpless.

When Lin Yang was ordinary, she also hoped that her child would be successful.

But now she felt that being too successful was not necessarily a good thing.

Not only was the person given to the country, but even to the Ten Thousand Universes!

Running off to an alien planet for a year or half a year at a time, he had no concept of time anymore.

"Uh... it has been quite a while, huh..." Lin Yang smiled awkwardly.

Because, upon closer calculation, it really had been four or five years.

The Universe Talent Competition alone took more than two years.

Adding the half a year of preparation and other time, it had indeed been four or five years already.

His previous few returns were all quite rushed, and he did somewhat overlook the passage of time.

Four or five years was indeed enough time for many things to change for people on Blue Star. He still subconsciously thought He Fatty was just a college student.

"I didn't expect this guy to be a graduate student already. It was my oversight." Lin Yang sighed.

Time truly flies like an arrow, and years pass like a shuttle.

"Xiao Ming will definitely be very happy that you can come back for his wedding this time." Zhang Fang added, "You also put in some effort and try to find me a daughter-in-law. You're capable now, you can even go to alien planets. You can find me an alien daughter-in-law, too, as long as she's human, I don't care. Mom isn't picky."

"..." Lin Yang was speechless again.

The way she said it... what did she mean by not picky, as long as she's human??

"Well, Mom, I'm going to see He Fatty."

Seeing his mother about to start a new round of marriage-urging bombardment, Lin Yang quickly left, locating He Fatty's position.

This guy had indeed returned home from school.

At this moment, the entire He family was decorated with red and joy.

He Ming, this Dead Fatty, was also uncharacteristically diligent, greeting wave after wave of guests.

Lin Yang found an opportunity and sent He Ming a message, asking him to come out quietly.

The reason he asked He Fatty to come out quietly was because he was now a household name across Blue Star, with immense influence and a rather special identity. If he were to go in and find He Ming now, or if others knew he had returned, the entire He family would definitely disrupt their existing preparations and rhythm to entertain him.

This was, after all, his best brother's wedding preparations, and Lin Yang didn't want to cause any trouble at this critical moment.

He Ming was startled when he received Lin Yang's message, then immediately found an excuse to slip out.

"Holy cow, Lin Yang, you actually came back! I thought you were just messing with me!"

When he saw Lin Yang right in front of him, He Ming was shocked, followed by a howl:

"Damn, my happiness came too suddenly! I was afraid I wouldn't be able to wait for you to attend my wedding, but I didn't expect you to come back at this critical moment!!!"

Saying that, the guy gave Lin Yang a bear hug.

Lin Yang pushed him away, looking at He Fatty dressed in a formal suit and sighed:

"You, dressed so formally, truly make me feel a bit unfamiliar."

"Oh, you think I want to dress like this? It's just because I'm getting married, you know. I have to be a bit more serious, at least for these few days." He Fatty chuckled.

Lin Yang nodded in understanding, then said slowly, "How did you get married so suddenly? The last time I saw you, you didn't even mention it. You've been hiding it quite well!"

"Ahem, well... actually, I wanted to tell you last time, but you left too hurriedly, so I didn't want to take up your time." He Fatty scratched his head.

"Alright, that's pretty good. So, you've been together for quite a while then?" Lin Yang pouted.

"Hehehe, actually, not too long. The main thing is that at first, we were both a bit hazy, and neither of us broke the ice. It's just been this period of time, our relationship progressed rapidly." He Fatty said, a little embarrassed.

"Is she a college Classmate?" Lin Yang asked curiously.

"Yes." He Ming nodded.

"Roughly when did it start?" Lin Yang asked again.

He Ming scratched his head again and said directly: "Lin Yang, I know what you're worried about. Are you worried that she doesn't truly like me, but is with me because of my family and your relationship?"

He didn't treat Lin Yang as an outsider at all; his words came out very naturally and smoothly.

Lin Yang paused slightly. He couldn't help but have a little bit of this concern in his heart.

It wasn't for any other reason, it was mainly He Fatty's image, which was a bit hard to describe.

He wasn't ugly, just a bit fat.

When this guy was in high school, he pursued many female Classmates, but was mercilessly rejected.

It's not that a fatty can't find love, it's just that the probability might be relatively lower.

And now that he was getting married so suddenly, Lin Yang was truly worried that He Fatty might fall into a gentle trap.

Of course, he didn't care about other losses; he was mainly afraid that He Fatty would be hurt emotionally afterward.

That was what he cared about.

It was just that he didn't even know how to bring it up, which was why he wanted to ask more about the situation, but he didn't expect He Ming to just blurt it out.

This made Lin Yang, while relieved that He Fatty's relationship with him hadn't estranged, also a little awkwardly explained: "Well, I don't mean anything else, don't overthink it, I just..."

However, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by He Ming waving his hand:

"Lin Yang, look at what you're saying. You emphasized to me many times last time not to treat you as an outsider, not to let our friendship become distant because of status. You don't need to explain anything now!"

"Uh..." Lin Yang froze.

He Ming then continued:

"I also know my own image. It's a bit difficult to find love. When Xiao Xiao and I are together, many people actually have this idea, thinking whether she's with me because of my family's current status or something. But Lin Yang, can I tell you that I don't care about these things? I've never experienced the taste of love, and even if she's faking it, I'll accept it. I just want to feel love."

"..." Lin Yang couldn't help but fall silent.

He had this thought, not because he was judging others with a small mind, nor because he thought too badly of others.

Similarly, it wasn't looking down on his brother, believing that his current image didn't deserve love.

Quite the opposite, Lin Yang was genuinely happy for He Fatty.

Although He Fatty was fat, he wasn't excessively so. Lin Yang was genuinely happy for him getting married.

It's just that Lin Yang had seen too many things, and he couldn't help but subconsciously overthink a bit.

But now, hearing He Fatty say this, Lin Yang stopped overthinking. Whether it was genuine or not, he could bear all the consequences for He Fatty!

Even if the worst outcome truly occurred, as long as He Fatty himself could let go, as for external things like money and status, he could always get more for He Fatty.

"Fatty, since that's the case, then go ahead and boldly feel and enjoy your love!" Lin Yang punched He Fatty's shoulder.

As long as he was there, he would always be Fatty's backing and retreat.

At this moment, nothing was more important than letting Fatty wholeheartedly enjoy this love!

"Haha, Lin Yang, with your support, I feel much more at ease." He Fatty laughed, then asked, "How many days are you back for this time? I'm getting married the day after tomorrow. Can you do me the honor of attending?"

"Isn't that obvious? Your wedding is such an important event, even if I don't have time, I must make time to be there!" Lin Yang rolled his eyes at him.

"Holy cow, then it's settled! You absolutely must come and give me face, I'll make them all green with envy!" He Fatty got excited, "Who else can invite you to their wedding like I can!"

"Alright, alright, I'll drive a battleship there to give you face, okay!" Lin Yang smiled slightly.

"Really? Godfather?!" He Fatty trembled directly.

"What do you think?"

Lin Yang smiled, then pointed to the wave after wave of guests in the He family courtyard and asked:

"Isn't your wedding still two or three days away? Why do I see so many people already here to give gifts?"

"This? How should I put it, can I say that because of your connection, my family, even if they didn't want to develop, were forced to?"

He Fatty rubbed his hands, explaining.

Now the He family was a big family with a big business. Although He Zhong had always intended to reduce expansion, it was still developing extremely fast.

It could be said that, because of Lin Yang, the He family's current status was very extraordinary domestically.

And He Fatty, as the sole heir of the He family and Lin Yang's best friend, even if he didn't actively invite people to his wedding, there would still be many people coming to congratulate him.

After all, a wedding was a great joyous occasion, and the He family couldn't really turn away well-wishers.

Moreover, these guests who came to congratulate three days in advance were also very self-aware, knowing that with their status, they would not be qualified to enter the banquet hall on He Fatty's wedding day. Therefore, they all chose to come and offer their congratulations in advance.

After all, those who arrived on the wedding day would definitely be truly prominent figures.

From high-ranking government officials to magnates of commercial empires.

He Fatty's wedding this time truly couldn't be low-key even if he wanted it to be. When those important figures came to offer congratulations, the He family couldn't really refuse them and not invite them.

So, this created the current situation where those with slightly lower status could only come to offer congratulations in advance, because on the wedding day, the banquet hall might not even be able to fit all the truly important figures.

Another point was that even if the He family prepared an even larger banquet hall to entertain guests, these people wouldn't dare to truly share a room with important figures and make noise, for fear of disturbing them.

He Fatty also told Lin Yang that in fact, not just today, but days ago, people had already started coming to the He family in advance to congratulate him on his wedding.

"Lin Yang, I actually feel a lot of pressure too. I really want to keep a low profile, but who made my good brother, you, so awesome? Even if you're not here, even if they don't know you're back, they still insist on coming to my wedding, and they sent their invitations a long time ago, making it exceptionally grand. I want to be low-key, but I can't."

He Fatty said to Lin Yang helplessly.

At this moment, he wasn't deliberately showing off, but genuinely felt helpless:

"If you weren't so amazing, I wouldn't even know that if you don't invite people to a wedding, they'll still actively send invitations to attend. To be honest, when I saw the first invitation, I was stunned myself. It turns out there really is such a thing in the world; before, I always thought this kind of thing only existed in TV dramas."

At this point, He Fatty looked at Lin Yang, even with a hint of helplessness:

"Lin Yang, you're saying that those world-renowned tycoons are all actively coming. My family can't really refuse them all, can we? That would be too arrogant. People would truly say my family is a dog lording it over others. So, you can understand, right? It's really not my family relying on your connections and reputation to make it so extravagant."

After listening to He Fatty's explanation, Lin Yang also spread his hands helplessly. It turned out that the cause of all this was still himself.

Then, Lin Yang patted He Fatty's shoulder again, shrugging and saying, "A wedding should be grand. Don't feel pressured. Just do what you need to do. I'll be there to hold the fort for you, no matter how many important figures come!"

Having seen the grand occasions of the Ten Thousand Universes, Lin Yang truly didn't care about the scale of things on Blue Star now.

However, upon hearing this, He Fatty sighed again:

"Alas, Lin Yang, I'm afraid of that very thing! They're already so crazy without knowing you're coming to my wedding. If they knew you were coming in person, I'm afraid the scene might get a little out of control!"

Lin Yang: "..."

"You mean, I should leave?"

Lin Yang grinned.
