Chapter 118: The fate of each of us in this world is closely intertwined.

"This is a nice starburst diamond ring, does it mean eternal love? Oh, it's so nice." Tang Bai looked blown away, "Ah this feather diamond ring is also beautiful,what does it mean ......"

Engagement rings are less formal, more flexible and more affordable than Xie Ruhang's wedding rings.

The more expensive the proposal ring, the greater the importance attached to the wife by the nobility, signifying that the alpha considers the omega a jewel in the palm of his hand.

Under normal circumstances, Xie Ruhang would not be able to afford a wedding ring that is valued in planets.

Grandpa Tang took this into account early on and set the prize for the Mecha Cup winner at the size of a pigeon's egg of magic silver.

Magic silver, the most fashionable and expensive rare metal today, would be more prestigious than any other wedding ring if it could be made out of such a large piece of magic silver.

"So far only the Federation has been able to mine the magic silver, and although no one has been able to figure out the exact conditions that inspire it, the magic silver is very attractive to the players." Tang Bai was afraid that Xie Ruhang would be under too much pressure, and he vowed, " Brother Xie, don't worry, whether you win the championship or not, we can get engaged, it's just a matter of how soon we get engaged."

Xie Ruhang looked at Tang Bai, whose heart was set on him, and the corners of his lips curved in a slight curve.

After separating from Tang Bai, Xie Ruhang went to the school's training room to get used to his new mech. At first, Xie Ruhang prepared himself for the chirping of the cranes, thinking that apart from the fat chirping mech that Tang Bai had customised for him, all the other alpha pilots in the training room would be powerful.

This thought was so strong that he pushed open the door to the training room and heard the deafening "widow".

Xie Ruhang's eyelids fluttered and he looked up to see Gu Tunan wearing a green mecha helmet, sitting expressionlessly on a sad frog-shaped mecha, his whole body exuding an air of hopelessness.

Xie Ruhang: "......?"

Xie Ruhang politely inquired, "I remember your water combat mech is called the Dragon into the Sea?"

Gu Tunan was silent for a moment, "Professor Wang made some changes to the shape of the mecha at Tang Bai's suggestion."

Xie Ruhang: "...... Good change." A wonderful change, a quacking change.

Looking around, Xie Ruhang, in his Fat Choo mech, suddenly found an unprecedented sense of superiority in a crowd of hardcore mechs.

Fierce a Moe A, true to his name.

Tang Bai ran to visit Bai Zhi's omega conservancy, an association that Bai Zhi founded a long time ago and which has recently been investigating specific data on ao divorce.

"After Mr Lai's divorce went viral on the internet, the Federation set off a wave of divorces, and guess which age group has the highest ao divorce rate?" Bai Zhi asked, pushing his monocle.

"Elders about the same age as Uncle Lai, I think." Tang Bai guessed.

Bai Zhi shook his head as he showed Tang Bai the statistical chart, only to see that the age group with the highest divorce rate was actually the grandparents' generation, with the omega side being the majority of those filing for divorce.

-- "I've always wanted to get divorced, but I've been worried about being laughed at for doing so for most of my life, so I thought I'd just go to my grave, but now that I see that Li Songyun's kids can start a new life with divorce, I'd like to give it a try."

-- "The kids are all starting families and I'm going to live for myself for once."

-- "I've muddled through most of my life, and in my last few decades, I don't want to be a cowboy for someone else, I want to be good to myself."

--I think that's what Li Songyun meant by cold violence, my old man doesn't love me and I want someone else to be white."

......

The grandparents on the profile have white hair, and at this age they seem to have nothing to do with love or the future, but the words they leave behind contain emotions that are intense and vivid.

Bai Zhi's fingers run over the photographs as he whispers, "We are witnessing a social change."

Tang Bai looks up in awe at Bai Zhi, who seems to have said the same thing in the book, but to Xie Ruhang.

Bai Zhi took off his monocle, an ornamental piece of eyewear that gave his beautiful face an extra touch of elegance when he wore it, and seemed much younger when he took it off.

Under Tang Bai's bewildered gaze, Bai Zhi suddenly took Tang Bai's hand somewhat mischievously, "Come, let me show you what we have done for the world."

They walked out of the tall, ornate building and headed for the noisy square, where the omega conservancy had set up a sunset dating corner with many elderly people talking to each other, and where Tang Bai saw Admiral Gu reluctantly accompanying an old friend on a blind date.

They walked out of the square and in front of an ordinary residential building, Tang Bai listened to Bai Zhi's soft voice, "You know what? There's an omega here who suffered domestic abuse from her husband, and after watching you and Mr Lai live, he finally made up his mind and managed to get a divorce with the help of the association."

Tang Bai gets into Bai Zhi's hover car, which pulls up to a Tang Family property: "Your father funded our association to create a food processing plant that takes in many omega employees."

"Just in time for the Mecha Cup, everyone felt that the polluting energy crystal processing plants in the slums needed a facelift, and I heard that your father was interested in opening the factory in the slums."

As the hover car continues to drive ahead, Tang Bai sees Bai Zhi's car with a sunflower energy gun that he designed, which looks like a small ornament inside the car, with its petals rotating automatically.

"By the way, I hope the school is open, the road is fixed and the house is still under construction."

Bai Zhi looks into the distance and sees the muddy and bumpy road to the slums being repaired and the slum children running around with abandon, carrying their school bags and playing with each other.

The First Star Corps sent men to be stationed in the slums, which had been in a state of disorder and had received an unprecedented improvement. It is said that on the first day of the First Star Corps' arrival, anyone who disturbed the order was arrested on the spot, so that all the prisons around the slums were filled.

During this time no one dares to start a conflict in the slums, the streets are loaded with surveillance, military and military school volunteers are everywhere, and even omega's are allowed to walk the slum streets alone.

" Tang Bai, thank you for making me understand that the destiny of each one of us in this world is closely linked." Bai Zhi said softly.

The fate of each of them is closely linked, as evidenced by the fact that he and Tang Bai now dare to drive into the slums.

When the day comes when every corner of the Commonwealth is settled, when buildings are erected, when both the poor and the omega can sit in brightly lit classrooms, learn together and struggle together, discrimination and prejudice will be gone.

Bai Zhi longed for that day, imagined the beautiful scene when it all happened, and he was actually a bit obsessed by the thought.

Tang Bai also looks at the thriving slums with the same gesture, his eyes flashing in a trance.

A world in which each of us is bound together by fate?

It does seem that way.

If he had done nothing, the course of the world would have been the same in the early days, Bai Zhi would still be the high and mighty MP, Li Songyun would continue to be the perfect Mrs. Gu, Lu Lv's brother would be defiled by Cheng Wenhui, and Jiang Quan would be growing like a weed in the slums ......

Countless omega's have been swept along in the current of the times, their voices unheard, their encounters unknowable.

" Tang Bai, you are the light that gives me hope."

With turquoise eyes looking at Tang Bai, Bai Zhi smiled slowly: "We called for this change, we pushed for it, and we will surely meet it with victory in the end."

A month later, all the major sections of the Star website were reporting on the launch of the New Marriage Act, which was strongly supported by the Honourable Bai Zhi.

Article 1: The Confederation guarantees omega equal rights to marriage and family with alpha and beta.

Article 2: The Federation protects the omega's right to marital autonomy. Interference with the omega's freedom to marry and divorce is prohibited.

Article 3: The spouses agree in writing that the property acquired during the marriage shall belong to each of them, and that the omega party, who has assumed more obligations by raising children, caring for the elderly, assisting the spouse in his or her work, etc., shall have the right to demand compensation from the spouse in the event of divorce.

......

Article 24: If the wife voluntarily washes away the lifetime marker due to discord between the spouses, mediation shall be ineffective and the divorce shall be granted.

The weekly publication on the New Marriage Law showed the faces of three omega's, from left to right, Tang Bai, Li Songyun and Bai Zhi.

A hand with an elaborate ring picked up the weekly magazine and he slowly turned to the first page, which read

" Tang Bai once said at a mech building competition that he met someone who inspired him and gave him the courage to follow his dreams, Tang Bai also said that he wanted every omega to be able to do what they wanted to do.

He thought so, and at the same time he did so.

Today Tang Bai is known to many as the light of the omega, bringing warmth and courage to many people.

The reason why the term "omega light" has emerged is probably related to the collective confusion of the omega community in this society, many of whom live in a fog, unable to see the way they came and unable to find the way forward.

At this time of year, there is a man with a lamp walking at the forefront exploring unknown paths, he smiles brightly and shines and cries when he falls, you watch him stumble and bounce all the way, as if there is no obstacle to stop him.

And at that moment when you look around again, you find more and more people in the mist looking at him, some picking up the stars, so that more and more people nod to each other, converging in silent agreement into rivers of light that follow him.

Li Songyun is the light chaser in the mist who took the brave first step of deviance and became the first omega in the Commonwealth to divorce her husband for cold violence.

He wants all omega's to live the life they want.

So more omega's made their move and raised their voices.

The law upholds universal justice and is the voice of the general public, in which case the Hon. Bai Zhi, who has reached out to the masses, has launched the New Marriage Act ......"

The picture on the first page shows Tang Bai in his military school uniform, with a long, long look on his smiling face.

" Andrei, why are you looking at Tang Bai's picture again?" Chris smiled and said, "Stop looking, we'll be in the Federation soon, you'll see the real thing soon!" ,,,... ...
