Chapter 46

A good boxing match ended up turning into a large-scale star-chasing event, but the instigator of this match was not dissatisfied with it.

It took Adenian a long time to climb out of the safety cabin. Looking at the dense crowds of people in the distance, he was not dissatisfied but rather felt relieved.

The attention was drawn away, which meant that no one would discuss too much about the outcome of the game, which was a great thing for the always proud Adenian.

It was around four in the afternoon when Melhos and the others successfully escaped from the ring. As soon as they returned to the sixth floor of St. Ventherin's Hospital, they threw themselves on the sofa without any image, with faces full of despair.

I have to say that these fanatical mecha fans are, to some extent, even more terrifying than aliens.

Seeing that they seemed very tired, Jiaojiao got down from her father's arms, ran to the side, got a cup and filled it with water, staggered to the sofa, stood on tiptoe and handed it to them: "Uncle, drink it."

Melhos took the water and picked up Jiaojiao. After drinking the water in one gulp, he poked Jiaojiao's little face and said, "Since you poured the water for me, I won't mind that you exposed us all."

Jiaojiao, who didn't understand, blinked and looked up at him with a soft smile.

"Heh" Melhos chuckled, ruffled Jiaojiao's hair and put him down.

After Jiaojiao landed and took the cup, she happily went to get water for other uncles.

My uncles are just as bad at taking care of themselves as my dad is.

Thinking of this, Jiaojiao shook her little head, sighed, took Uncle Keluo's water cup, and continued to serve it to other uncles who were waiting for water.

Everyone looked at him sighing and shaking his head, and they were all a little curious about what was going on in his little head.

When he came over again with the cup of water, he handcuffed the man and questioned him.

Facing the uncles' questions, Jiaojiao put her hands behind her back, looked up at them, and said seriously: "This is Jiaojiao's little secret, I won't tell you uncles."

"Oh, there's a little secret." Ke Luo stood up and threw Jiaojiao high into the air and caught her. Looking at the giggling Jiaojiao in his arms, he said with a smile in his eyes, "Will you tell me?"

"No."

"If you don't tell me, I'll just keep throwing it?"

"No, daddy, hold Jiaojiao." Jiaojiao twisted her body and asked her father for help.

Seeing Yin Zheng approaching, Ke Luo hugged Jiaojiao and turned around and ran away, reaching out and patting Jiaojiao's butt: "You call me daddy when you encounter problems, aren't you ashamed?"

"Don't be ashamed, Jiaojiao is a child." Jiaojiao raised her hands to cover her little butt and retorted seriously.

Fang Xingqiao, who was sitting on the side staring at Jiaojiao, stood up from the sofa after seeing him being spanked. He said in a difficult voice, "No, you are not allowed to bully my uncle," and slowly "caught up" after him.

In a blink of an eye, the scene became chaotic again.

Yin Zheng did not pay attention to the follow-up of the ring match. This was a huge blow to Adenian and his mother. For Yin Zheng, it was just an ordinary game.

Yin Zheng knew very early on that he was the eldest son of the Yin family. He knew it when his stepmother threw him into the border town. After all, he was already five years old at that time and was old enough to remember things.

He knew that he was the child of Yin Changshan from the Yin family in the central city, but in the more than 20 years in the border town, he had never thought of returning to the central city.

The reason is that he has emotional defects, which led to him neither resenting his stepmother for abandoning him to the border town, nor having any attachment to his father Yin Changshan.

There was only Jiaojiao in his eyes. Although he was gradually becoming interested in things other than Jiaojiao, that was only the initial stage. He still had a long way to go before he could truly and completely become a normal person.

Time flies. After undergoing a mental stability test and confirming that the mental disorder period had passed, Melhos and others were discharged from the hospital and returned to the military to take up their posts.

Separation seems to be right in front of us, but many things can always be changed by human power.

Luo Andeli, who lived across from Jiaojiao in Fanyun Community, was speechless when he found out that Melhos and the others lived upstairs.

Melhos and others who came down to visit together saw Luo Andeli's expression as if he had eaten a fly, and raised their eyebrows in amusement.

Ke Luo even stood up from the sofa while holding Jiaojiao in his arms, and said with a look of evil amusement, "Surprised or not? Unexpected or not."

Luo Andeli was surprised but not happy: "…………"

The period of emotional and mental disorder not only did not amplify your negative factors, but suppressed them instead?

The personalities of the few people who came out of the mental disorder period have changed to some extent. The biggest change is Cloveford. He has become more rational and restrained than when he was in the hospital.

Those childish behaviors he showed in the hospital almost never appeared again after he recovered.

After returning to the military, the pressure on him became heavier and heavier, and he became busier and busier. As time went by, Cloverford was rarely seen at Jiaojiao's place.

Melhos, Luo Andeli and others had anticipated this, because in their hearts this was Cloverd's true character. What happened in St. Vincent's Hospital was ultimately a short-lived phenomenon due to a period of mental disorder.

But Jiaojiao didn't think so. The little boy only knew that he hadn't seen his grandfather for a long time.

Missing her dad, Jiaojiao sat on the sofa, fiddling with the terminal on her wrist and calling her dad.

On Jiaojiao's terminal were the terminal numbers of Cloverd, Melhos, Kolo, Gu Yu, Jiang Cha, Ji Zang, Casper, Hillianbul and others. They had entered them one by one while holding Jiaojiao's little hand at St. Ventherin's Hospital, and they had also uniformly set Jiaojiao to pay special attention to incoming calls.

At this time, Cloveford was in a meeting at the military headquarters. When the bell rang, the commander of the Third Military District sitting below him frowned and said in a very unfriendly tone, "Who? Get out!"

Clove, who was sitting at the top and looking down at the special call on the terminal, stood up slowly and walked out after hearing this.

The place was extremely quiet for a moment. The people who were reporting a series of things stopped talking, and only the sound of each other's breathing rose and fell in the room.

When the commander of the Third Legion, Cantelfi, saw that it was Marshal Clo who stood up, his eyes twitched and two words flashed through his mind: It's over!

"Marshal," Cantelfi stood up and called out, stuttering a little, "If you're in that situation, you don't have to leave."

Cloveford glanced back at him: "Why?"

"…………" You can't just say you're a marshal and therefore have special privileges, right?!

If that's true, he can pack his bags and move to the border town tomorrow.

Seeing that Cantelfi had a bitter face and couldn't explain it for a long time, Cloveford frowned slightly and turned to walk out, answering the terminal that had been ringing for a while as he walked.

"Daddy." A childish voice came from the terminal.

"Hmm?" Cloveford responded softly, looking down at Jiaojiao with curved eyebrows in the virtual video.

"Jiaojiao misses you." Jiaojiao made a big circle with her hands, saying, "I miss you so much."

As she spoke, Jiaojiao leaned closer to the camera, magnifying her fair little face to the maximum, her dark, bright eyes filled with anticipation: "Dad, do you miss Jiaojiao?"

Faced with the child's frank and passionate longing, Cloveford subconsciously lowered his eyes and chose to avoid it. However, he could only avoid his sight, but the heart in his chest that had nowhere to escape seemed to be burned by this passionate longing and curled up slightly.

The feeling of being missed and cared about so much was very unfamiliar to Cloverd. In his world, family and friendship only existed in his childhood.

As he grew up and became more outstanding and dazzling, many things gradually drifted away from him with an irresistible force.

People of his age were unwilling to approach him, the elders in his family were in awe of him, and even his parents felt alienated and distant from him.

Young Cloverd was worshipped as a god, and everyone stayed away from him with the idea that he should not be desecrated. This made Cloverd, who had always longed to be close to his family and play with his friends, even more taciturn.

He had taken the initiative to approach her, but was met with confusion, blame and slight fear.

'Cloveford wins again!'

'Oh, I'm numb!'

'I feel so weak when I see him!'

"Before he entered the military academy, I was a genius..."

"It's really abominable. Next to him, we are like stars around the sun. We should be dazzling, but because of the sun's existence, we are dimmed."

"If only... he didn't exist..."

As a teenager, Cloverd had an unusually sharp hearing. He could hear things that they thought he couldn't hear.

So he stopped approaching and just stood there, clearly and knowingly letting his family and friends gradually move away.

Perhaps it was because there were too many shadows left by the past that caused Cloverd to subconsciously stay away from Jiaojiao after being discharged from the hospital.

It wasn't intentional, it was just a subconscious instinctive reaction.

Seeing that Daddy hadn't spoken for a long time, Jiaojiao tilted her head, with doubt in her dark and bright eyes: "Daddy, don't you miss Jiaojiao?"

Cloveford opened his eyes, and his iris-purple eyes met Jiaojiao's eyes that seemed to be star-shattered. His fingers hanging by his side curled up slightly. He was greedy for the feeling Jiaojiao brought him, and he also envied the clean, passionate, straightforward and pure love that he had for Yin Zheng without any impurities.

It was that kind of love that attracted him to Jiaojiao, hoping to get a share of her love.

He looked at Jiaojiao for a long time and said in a low voice, "I do."

Jiaojiao curved her eyes, which were full of joy and happiness: "Then Daddy, come to Jiaojiao's house to play after get off work."

"good."

When Cloveford left the military headquarters early and went to Fanyun Community, Jiaojiao, who had been waiting at the door, saw him and ran up to him with open arms, "Daddy."

Cloveford squatted down and took a full embrace. Jiaojiao threw herself into his arms, stood on tiptoe and rubbed her furry head against his chin. Her little voice was as sweet as if it contained sugar: "Jiaojiao misses Daddy."

Cloveford held him in his arms, his eyes lowered slightly.

After Clovede entered the house carrying Jiaojiao, he found Yin Zheng cooking. He walked in and stared at Yin Zheng's every move, intending to learn from him.

Melhos and others sitting on the sofa in the living room looked at each other.

"Do you think the Marshal's mental disorder has healed or not?" Ke Luo asked as he peeled the orange in his hand and fed it to Jiaojiao.

Gu Yu spread his hands: "I don't know."

They didn't know whether Marshal Kro's mental disorder had healed or not, but they knew that they might not understand this former childhood friend.

Since that day, Cloverford came to Jiaojiao almost every time he was free, and sometimes even competed with Yin Zheng for who would pick up Jiaojiao from school. He seemed even more childish than when he was in the mental disorder period.
