"Am I your disgrace? Yes, you are all high-ranking officials and noble ladies, and I am the only pirate. Of course you cannot acknowledge me, but who cares to be acknowledged by you? Since we are enemies now, let's not talk about that ridiculous blood relationship! Let's die together!"

With a deafening explosion, Song Xia was jolted awake, sitting up in a cold sweat.

"Madam, you're awake. Don't move. I'll call the doctor right away." The nanny looked at her with concern, but Song Xia ignored her and pulled out the IV needle to get up.

"Where is your marshal?"

"Madam, you are still not well!"

"I asked Ling Chengrong, 'Has he found my Ye'er yet?'"

“Madam…” The nanny hesitated, her expression a mixture of reluctance and heartache.

"I need to go see him. Arrange a car for me immediately."

"But the Marshal wants you to rest well."

Song Xia stared intently at her and the doctors and nurses who had rushed over: "My Ye'er's life hangs in the balance. How can I get any rest? I have to watch him save Ye'er with his own hands."

"Aunt Song, Father will definitely save my brother, don't worry." The speaker was Ling Wenying, Song Xia's stepdaughter. She had a spirited look and was only a few years younger than Song Xia. She was currently studying at the Federal Military Academy.

In contrast, Song Xia looked much more delicate, dressed in typical noblewoman attire, but her attitude was very firm: "I won't feel at ease unless I see it with my own eyes."

"In that case, Aunt Song, I'll take you there."

Song Xia turned to look at the handsome man. His name was Ling Wenbang, and he was also her stepson. He and her stepdaughter Ling Wenying were twins and studied at the Federal Military Academy.

Both of them excelled academically, in combat skills, and in weapon mastery, making them top performers at school and hailed as Ling Chengrong's perfect successors.

Comparatively speaking, her youngest son, Ling Wenye, born to Ling Chengrong, was not as outstanding. At only five years old, Ling Wenye had just entered kindergarten, and the teacher's comments were that he was naughty, unruly, and disobedient. With the excellent performance of her first two children as an example, and with Ling Chengrong having more official duties after being promoted to marshal, he did not have as deep feelings for his youngest son as he did for his first two children.

In particular, the two children Ling Chengrong had were his childhood sweetheart, his classmate. They grew up together, joined the army together, fell in love together, and died when they were at the height of their love. The reason for their tragic deaths was the deliberate revenge of the enemies Ling Chengrong had made outside. Therefore, it is understandable that Ling Chengrong favored his two children.

Even so, does that mean Song Xia's child can be abandoned at will?

Although "she" married Ling Chengrong because of his relentless pursuit, was she really so lowly that she didn't even deserve to have her only child protected?

Although Ling Wenbang and Ling Wenying were the favored ones, they were not the ones who caused their son's tragedy. Therefore, Song Xia could not hate them. She only deeply hated Ling Chengrong. In her previous life, he had the ability to save his son when he was in trouble, but because he was worried about this and that, and also wanted to take the opportunity to avenge his deceased ex-wife, his son was kidnapped, and he embarked on a path of no return.

Now that she's back, she must personally prevent the tragedy of her son being kidnapped.

The spacecraft took off from the capital planet and quickly arrived at the warship where Ling Chengrong was located. The warship was stationed in the turbulent planetary belt. Because this area was unpredictable and dangerous, even warships had difficulty exploring it, so it was the most popular trading place for space pirates.

Ling Chengrong stood in the cockpit, his handsome and tall figure looking at the ray storm outside the warship. He frowned as he reported Song Xia's arrival to his subordinates.

"What are you doing here? This is not a place for you." His first words upon meeting his wife were accusations, and even when facing his delicate wife, his imposing manner remained unchanged.

Then he said to Ling Wenbang and Ling Wenying, "Take Aunt Song back to the place where you brought her from."

“I’m not going back.” Song Xia looked directly at him. “I want to know how Ye’er is doing.”

"I will bring him back."

What if they can't be saved?

Ling Chengrong looked at her seriously: "I am the marshal of the First Legion. They are just a bunch of despicable and cunning pirates. There is no 'what if' about it."

Song Xia's eyes were dark, but in her previous life, even this man, who was hailed as the strongest fighter in the interstellar space and the commander of the strongest legion in the interstellar space, still failed to save her Ye'er.

She snorted coldly: "Since you're so confident, what's wrong with letting me watch from the sidelines? Ye'er has been kidnapped for so long, he must be terrified. I think the first thing he'll see when he's rescued is me."

"It's because of your pampering that he's so useless."

Song Xia clenched her fists: "Ling Chengrong, Ye'er is only five years old. What do you think a five-year-old child will grow up to be like?"

"Anyway, Wenbang and Wenying were much better than him when they were young."

"Father!"

"Father!"

Two voices of disapproval came out simultaneously from Ling Wenbang and Ling Wenying, who clearly also felt that Ling Chengrong had made a mistake.

Song Xia coldly replied, "It's my fault for being useless and not giving birth to the child you expected. If you look down on me so much, why did you marry me in the first place?"

Upon hearing her words, Ling Wenbang, Ling Wenying, and the legion subordinates standing nearby were all incredulous. She had always been gentle, delicate, and timid, and she was very humble when facing Ling Chengrong. Yet now she was showing such a tough attitude towards Ling Chengrong.

Could it be true that children are a mother's only weakness, and that even a man she once truly loved and pursued can't compare to a child she conceived and gave birth to?

However, it has been two days since Ling Wenye was kidnapped, so it is understandable that Madam Song is anxious. These audacious pirates actually managed to break into the capital planet. Are the pirates too powerful, or is there a problem inside the capital planet?

Those who have this question generally lean towards the latter answer, which explains why Madam Song was so agitated and targeted the child. Wasn't she targeting Marshal Ling? Back then, the eldest young master and the second young lady's mother died because Marshal Ling's enemies broke into the capital planet. According to their reliable sources, that group and the group that kidnapped the young master are connected, and the mastermind may even be the same person.

Faced with Song Xia's sarcasm, Ling Chengrong simply looked at her indifferently: "Song Xia, I don't have time to fool around with you right now."

Song Xia's pale face was unusually resolute: "You had better keep your word and rescue Ye'er, or I'll never forgive you."

Ling Chengrong didn't take her threat to heart, because Song Xia had always been humble in front of him, and things would be fine after this was over.

However, what he didn't know was that, regardless of whether the ending in this life was the same as in the previous life, Song Xia had already decided to get a divorce.
