This Alpha Is So Devoted to His Wife - Chapter 77.1

The private jet soared through the clouds, and after more than ten hours, it slowly descended at the Huaxia airport.

Along the airport’s VIP exclusive channel, two bodyguards in black stood every ten meters, and cars with license plates starting with ‘C’ were waiting outside the VIP exit.

This was the Chu family’s exclusive license plate, a number with nearly a century of history, representing a special honorary privilege for those who had made significant contributions to the nation.

“Welcome home, Young Master Duan and Young Master Lu.”

At the bottom of the aircraft stairs, the steward of the Chu family’s old mansion was already waiting. He smiled as he watched the two men descend from the plane.

Duan Yeluo stepped out of the cabin and looked around at the blue sky of Huaxia. In that instant, he felt a long-lost, intense sense of belonging. He looked at the old steward he hadn’t seen in a long time. “Uncle Li, long time no see. How have you been?”

“Uncle Li looks robust and healthy.” Lu Xinghe followed from behind, putting his sunglasses on Duan Yeluo. He was worried about his eyes being exposed to direct UV rays, mainly because of his severe night blindness.

Uncle Li looked at the two young men with affectionate eyes. “I’m well. How are you two doing abroad?”

“We are both very well. Why did you come to pick us up yourself?” Duan Yeluo replied with a smile, then took off his sunglasses. Wearing sunglasses in front of the old steward seemed impolite. He then subtly squeezed Lu Xinghe’s hand behind his back.

Lu Xinghe understood his meaning, wasn’t offended, and squeezed his hand back.

Uncle Li noticed the situation and glanced at the bodyguards behind him.

The bodyguards quickly opened umbrellas and walked over to the two young masters. This was a special instruction from Chairman Chu, who had specifically warned that Duan Yeluo’s eyes should not be exposed to the sun.

“That’s good, then. Chairman Chu specifically asked me to pick you up. He said he would personally cook a welcome dinner for the two of you tonight.”

Duan Yeluo heard that his Great-Grandfather Chu was cooking for them. He glanced at Lu Xinghe, raised an eyebrow, and smiled. “See that, Lu Xinghe? My Great-Grandfather is cooking for you. Don’t you have something to say?”

Lu Xinghe pondered for a moment, then asserted, “Good. Then tonight, I will offer a cup of tea and change my title to ‘Great-Grandfather.'”

Duan Yeluo smiled without speaking.

Uncle Li also laughed. “Of course. Chairman Chu and [Duan Yeluo’s] Great-Grandmother have been looking forward to the two of you starting a family soon.”

“We will. We also have to work hard to have a baby soon,” Lu Xinghe said, wrapping an arm around Duan Yeluo’s shoulder, leaning down to smile at him. “Right, my dear Baby?”

After all, they were already looking forward to their future together and their future baby.

Duan Yeluo looked up at him, his eyes filled with helplessness and indulgence. “Try to be more composed in front of the family later.”

Lu Xinghe dropped his playful expression, returning to his usual serious, refined-scoundrel look. He brought his index and middle fingers together, touching his forehead, and smiled slightly. “Understood, Leader.”

Uncle Li, witnessing their affection, looked on with gratification.

Although they used the VIP channel, they couldn’t completely avoid being photographed by the media, especially since they were a high-profile wealthy family.

Before long, the Chu family’s motorcade slowly drove into the heavy traffic.

An hour later, several new trending topics appeared on social media platforms.

#Galaxy Group’s fifth heir Duan Yeluo returns to the country#

#Galaxy Group and Neptune Group stock prices surge over 5%, technology sector stocks rise sharply#

#Duan Yeluo will simultaneously take over the family businesses, Galaxy Group and Neptune Group#

#Duan Yeluo’s lover is Prince Bennett of Country D#

#Prince Bennett withdraws from the Clemens Royal Family, has acquired Huaxia nationality#

#Duan Yeluo and Lu Xinghe are the youngest wealthy individuals on the Forbes Global Rich List#

The radar for domestic netizens’ gossip was activated. They couldn’t let a wealthy family hot topic pass without contributing.

【My gosh, what a powerful alliance.】

【These two don’t even need a marriage alliance; this is purely rich people marrying for love and freedom.】

【I heard about their legend on the foreign internet a long time ago. All I can say is that the legends of the rich are full of the scent of love.】

【I heard both of these rich guys are love-struck fools.】

【See? What’s wrong with being a love-struck fool? Love-struck fools can also become rich!】

【The prerequisite is that you must have a brain like theirs to become a love-struck fool. Not all love-struck fools can make big money.】

【Otherwise, how could these two be the youngest billionaires on the Forbes Global List?】

【Hey, hey, hey, don’t raise the minimum standard for love-struck fools, okay? Isn’t the requirement for a love-struck fool too high these days?】

【These two have raised the standard for love-struck fools. Quick, someone lower the standard for love-struck fools.】

…

The vehicle drove into the Jiangtianyisu villa complex on Chu Street Avenue. The marble archway of the Chu Residence came into view.

This was the Chu family’s century-old mansion. The hundred years of history had left an imprint on this modern Chinese-style villa cluster, carrying the memories of several generations of the Chu family.

By the time it reached the youngest generation, there were the most children, and it was hard for the elders’ ears to find peace during family gatherings.

As Duan Yeluo stepped through the main entrance, he was startled by Duan Yifan, who was leaning against the door, adjusting his hair while wearing sunglasses. His expression changed several times, finally settling into one of exasperation. “Duan Yifan, what are you doing standing here? You scared me.”

Duan Yifan suavely touched his hair, took off his sunglasses, stood up, and spread his arms to his two childhood friends who had returned. “Don’t say anything. Let’s start with a deep, emotional hug.”

Duan Yeluo bent over and dodged the embrace.

Duan Yifan looked shocked and hurt. “Little Nephew, doing this really hurts your Uncle’s feelings.” He then looked at Lu Xinghe and pointed a finger. “You, Lu Xinghe, if you don’t respect me, your little Uncle, don’t even think about stepping inside the house. I don’t agree to this marriage!”

He finished by angrily tossing his sunglasses.

Onto the grass.

Lu Xinghe laughed, bent down to pick up the sunglasses, and walked forward with open arms to hug Duan Yifan. “Come, come, come, let’s hug. Don’t be angry, little Uncle.”

Duan Yifan angrily pushed him away. “It’s no use. A late hug is cheaper than anything.” He then turned to walk away.

But after two seconds, he turned his head back. Seeing that Duan Yeluo didn’t intend to come over and hug him, he was a little hurt. “Duan Yeluo, we haven’t seen each other in so long, and you won’t even hug me? You’re too much now. You make big money and forget the person who looked out for you.”

He finished by spreading his arms towards Duan Yeluo.

Lu Xinghe turned his face away and laughed softly, pressing his tongue against the corner of his mouth, his eyes full of restraint. Who didn’t know what Duan Yifan was up to?

Duan Yeluo looked at his attention-seeking little Uncle, who could truly stand at the door and act out an entire play by himself. If he wasn’t hugged, he would probably keep causing a scene until they got inside and then complain to the family. Helplessly, Duan Yeluo walked up and hugged Duan Yifan.

One could say that Omegas have an instinctive protective instinct towards Alphas, and this was true for Duan Yifan as well.

Duan Yifan contentedly hugged his little nephew, who was a head shorter than him. He glanced sideways at Lu Xinghe and raised an eyebrow in provocation. “See? My little nephew is still obedient. He hugged me.”

Lu Xinghe smiled knowingly. “Duan Yifan, if you’re an Alpha, don’t hold back.” He couldn’t restrain himself any longer, clenching his fists.

How could he tolerate someone hugging his wife like that right in front of him? He absolutely couldn’t.

Duan Yifan saw Lu Xinghe about to lose his temper and, having provoked him enough, immediately let go of Duan Yeluo and ran off.

Lu Xinghe took three long strides with his long legs and caught Duan Yifan. He wrapped an arm around him and unceremoniously pressed down on his shoulder. “Duan Yifan, if you don’t provoke me every day, do you think I don’t respect that you’re an Alpha? You just have to seek attention.”

The long corridor leading from the main gate to the residence saw the two Alphas, who were of similar build, wrestling from the doorway—one pressing the other’s neck, the other pressing his arm—looking even more childish than high school students.

“As the saying goes, men are boys until they die.”

Duan Yeluo heard the voice from behind and turned his head to see his cousin, Jiang Nianqiao. His eyes were full of tenderness. “Qiao Qiao.”

Jiang Nianqiao was a female Alpha. She was the same height as Duan Yeluo, wearing an ice-blue casual suit, a white T-shirt underneath, and a clean, sharp, slightly wavy shoulder-length bob.

She looked at Duan Yeluo, whom she hadn’t seen in a while, and opened her arms with a smile. “Second Brother, welcome back.”

Duan Yeluo smiled and hugged his cousin.

The four of them were genuine childhood friends who had not been separated from kindergarten to high school. Even without a blood relationship, they were the most important companions to each other.

Duan Yifan stopped walking ahead, hooking his arm around Lu Xinghe’s shoulder. He glanced backward and laughed. “Lu Xinghe, see? Even if it wasn’t me, Jiang Nianqiao would step in.”

Lu Xinghe had naturally seen it. He let go of Duan Yifan and said casually, “Zai Zai and I are getting married. What about you?”

Duan Yifan laughed aloud. “You heartless Lu Xinghe, showing off your affection, are you?”

“Couldn’t catch Jiang Nianqiao?” Lu Xinghe glanced behind him.

A complex look crossed Duan Yifan’s eyes, and his expression sobered slightly. He cleared his throat and punched Lu Xinghe in the chest. “Stop it. She’s here. If she hears that, she’ll ignore me again.”

Lu Xinghe seemed to understand something and laughed softly. “She won’t let you court her?”

Duan Yifan looked at Lu Xinghe without expression, his eyes pained, having been struck where it hurt. He raised his fist.

Lu Xinghe laughed. “How miserable.” He then extended his hand, showing Duan Yifan the wedding ring on his ring finger. “Let me show you Zai Zai’s and my wedding ring.”

Duan Yifan: “…”

“What are you talking about?”

Hearing Jiang Nianqiao’s voice, Duan Yifan quickly put his fist away, instantly turning into a docile little puppy, just short of acting like a little bird.

Jiang Nianqiao walked up, glanced at Duan Yifan, and added lukewarmly, “It’s fine to be like this at home, but outside, you should keep your childish temper in check.” She finished and brushed past him into the house.

Her back was tall and straight, and her female Alpha aura was sufficient to dominate.

Indeed, Jiang Nianqiao had now taken over parts of her father Yan Nanchen’s enterprises and was a resolute female CEO.

Only after Jiang Nianqiao had gone inside did Duan Yifan dare to show his hurt expression. He slumped onto Lu Xinghe’s shoulder, unable to maintain his composure. “Did you hear that? That’s too much! She called me childish!”

Duan Yeluo curiously met Lu Xinghe’s gaze and walked over to Duan Yifan, asking softly, “What’s going on with you two?”

Duan Yifan lifted his head, looked at Duan Yeluo, and seemed to remember something. “Zai Zai, why don’t you transfer me to the Galaxy Group? I want to be with Qiao—”

“Duan Yifan, come here.”

Just then, Jiang Nianqiao’s voice came from the corridor inside.

Duan Yifan immediately dashed towards her.

His subservience was unparalleled.

Duan Yeluo & Lu Xinghe: “…”

Night fell, and all the villas in Jiangtianyisu lit up, looking like a galaxy from above.

In the enormous dining room, the thirty-meter-long dining table was set with cutlery. The housekeepers were continuously serving dishes.

“You two have decided on a travel wedding, haven’t you?”

Duan Yeluo helped Great-Grandfather Chu walk toward the dining room. Hearing the question, he smiled and nodded. “Mhm. We felt that holding a wedding ceremony didn’t hold much meaning for us. We want more time alone together.”

“Xinghe, I heard you’ve invested in several companies recently, and they all seem quite successful. Just like Zai Zai’s Big Uncle, you’re smart and know how to make money.”

Lu Xinghe was overjoyed to be praised by Great-Grandfather Chu. Gaining the approval of Duan Yeluo’s family naturally made his heart bloom. Walking beside Great-Grandfather Chu, he smiled slightly. “I just want to work hard to keep up with Zai Zai. Being able to fight side-by-side with the person I love is my greatest achievement.”

Great-Grandfather Chu laughed heartily, the sound echoing through the old mansion. He patted Lu Xinghe’s shoulder. “Caring for your partner and your family is a man’s most basic requirement. Get along well with Zai Zai.”

Lu Xinghe was startled by the pat from Great-Grandfather Chu, but he managed to maintain his smile. In reality, the force of the pat felt like it had numbed his arm. His Great-Grandfather Chu truly deserved his reputation as a boxer; he was old but vigorous.

Before long, a family of more than thirty people was seated.

Over the decades, this family had grown larger and larger. Unity and love for the family were the cornerstones of this family’s growing strength.

“It is a very happy occasion that Zai Zai and Xingxing are home. In two days, it will also be the day Zai Zai officially takes over the Galaxy Group. From now on, Zai Zai, as the older brother, you must lead your younger siblings to strive and work together for the Galaxy Group.”

“Yes, Great-Grandfather. I will take good care of my younger siblings.”

Great-Grandfather Chu spoke, handing a letter to Steward Li. He looked at Duan Yeluo and Lu Xinghe with affectionate eyes. “I know you want to travel for your wedding. This gift is from your Great-Grandmother and me for your marriage.”

Duan Yeluo took the letter and glanced at Lu Xinghe.

“You can open it and take a look.”

Duan Yeluo then opened the letter and found a share certificate and a black-gold card inside. When he saw the share amount on the certificate, it was impossible not to be astonished.

It was 50 billion [currency unit] worth of shares in the Galaxy Group.

This meant that after taking over the Galaxy Group, he was not only working for the company but also received shares.

“Your Great-Grandmother and I hope that your generation will continue to carry forward the spirit of scientific research of the Galaxy Group. To me, all my children are treated equally. I am giving 50 billion in shares to Zai Zai this time because he earned it. The success of the Guardian Chip has made the world see the strength of the Galaxy Group once again. I hope to see your performances next.”

Lu Xinghe’s heart pounded wildly. This family was incredible.

Great-Grandfather Chu met Lu Xinghe’s bright eyes and smiled. “Xinghe, if you can bring honor to the Galaxy Group, Great-Grandfather will give you some, too.”

Duan Yeluo noticed Lu Xinghe’s grin was almost as bright as the light fixture above his head. He stifled a laugh and tapped Lu Xinghe’s thigh under the table, signaling him to be calm, then showed him the card in his hand.

“Although I know you two are not short on money, this global alliance card allows you to travel anywhere in the world and can help you solve some emergencies. If you encounter an unexpected situation that is difficult to resolve, go directly to the Alliance Department. They will ensure the safety of our family members.”

“Come, let’s toast to Zai Zai and Xinghe. Wishing them a happy marriage.”

“Happy marriage!”

The next day.

Duan Yeluo and Lu Xinghe registered their marriage and completed the pheromone coding alignment. From this day forward, they were officially married.

One week later.

The successive CEOs of the Galaxy Group attended the shareholders’ meeting. Duan Yeluo formally took over the Galaxy Group, becoming the fifth CEO, managing the headquarters and coordinating nearly ten thousand Galaxy Group subsidiaries worldwide.

In his first week in office, there was a major personnel restructuring across the group globally, intended to prevent incidents like the one in Country D, and many redundant positions were eliminated.

The entire staff of the Galaxy Group regarded the young CEO, who was so quick to fire people, with reverence. He was ruthless, setting an example through severe punishment right from the start.

Before the all-staff meeting concluded, Duan Yeluo left them with a statement.
