Chapter 464 Personally Bringing Them Back to the Country

Feeling refreshed by the mental sea, Si Yuting's eyes flickered. He withdrew his hands, stood up with Qu Tong's help, turned slightly to pull her into his arms, kissed her hair, and couldn't help but say, "Ali, I missed you, I missed you so much."

"Eh~~Eh~~Eh~~"

A chorus of teasing and cheers erupted around me, and as I looked around, I saw so many familiar faces.

Qu Tong released Si Yuting, took two steps forward, looked at the most distinguished woman in the group, and gave a graceful bow, "Mother."

The tension on Gong Lingyu's face melted away in an instant, and she broke into a big smile. She took a few steps forward and took Qu Tong's hand, her eyes a little moist. "Tongtong, you've been wronged."

Gong Lingyu gently touched Qu Tong's hand again and again, her eyes filled with tenderness.

Qu Tong genuinely regarded the Empress as an elder, and did not withdraw her hands. As before, she obediently replied, "No, with Mother's care, how could I possibly suffer any grievances?"

In addition to the monthly payments from the military for medicine, Junli's account also had more than a dozen payments from the Ministry of Finance, each with its source noted. The largest payment was for mental distress damages, amounting to tens of millions, transferred from Si Xian's assets.

These funds should have been transferred to Qu Tong's account, but she couldn't use that personal terminal.

Such meticulousness must have been specifically instructed by the Empress.

The Empress then turned her gaze to Qu Tong's belly, her eyes kind and gentle: "Come home with your mother. The gene bank and the central hospital have been renovated. If you are worried, I will have the doctors and nurses wait for you at Yue Lan Bay."

Qu Tong embarked on her journey back to China.

The procession that came to pick her up this time was very grand. The large military warship was specially prepared for her, and I heard that it had started being modified two months ago.

The Empress thought that if the baby hadn't been born yet, she would take Tongtong back to give birth; if the baby had already been born, she would take both the baby and Tongtong home together.

The Empress also brought many obstetricians and nurses aboard the ship in advance, and the ship was fully equipped with all kinds of medical equipment and medicines.

Thanks to advanced technology, sitting on a ship is just like traveling to a resort, and there's absolutely no need to worry about the baby being uncomfortable.

The ship flew for a week and arrived at the capital planet.

Everyone in the Canaan Empire knew that their Crown Princess had returned, personally welcomed back by the Empress and His Highness the God of War.

The internet erupted in cheers, and Qu Tong's livestream account and shop were flooded with new comments.

Even the comments section under Si Yuting's commendation ceremony livestream was filled with the same sentiment: "The Crown Princess is His Highness the God of War's most dazzling medal!"

These comments were displayed in real time on a large screen at the scene.

Si Yuting stood on the stage, his posture upright. The uniform marshal's uniform seemed to have been tailor-made for him, with a gleaming gold medal hanging on his left chest.

Si Yuting stretched out one hand to hold the microphone stand, bowed slightly, looked at the screen, a smile appeared on his lips, and his voice was solemn and dignified.

He said, "Yes, it is my honor to be the Crown Princess."

A burst of excited cheers erupted from the audience, and the screen on the big screen was flooded with comments.

[Ahhh! His Highness the God of War has admitted it.]

[Oh my god! This is the first time His Highness the God of War has smiled so gently in public! His Highness the God of War is killing me! I'm going to faint!]

[Don't faint yet. His Highness the God of War isn't smiling at you. Don't get too emotional.]

[I know, I know! His Highness the God of War was smiling at the Princess Consort, it's so sweet, so handsome, I love it!]

[Princess Consort, did you see that? His Highness the God of War confessed his love to you in public.]

She saw it.

Even through the screen, Qu Tong felt as if Si Yuting had spoken to her specifically, causing her to momentarily lose her composure.

It seems that in her previous society, men disliked having their achievements associated with women, and even more so, they hated it when others mentioned that their success was due to women.

Unexpectedly, Si Yuting would admit it so readily, and one could even hear a hint of pride in the rising tone of his voice.

Without realizing it, Qu Tong also curled up the corners of her mouth.

Suddenly, a striking comment appeared in the view of the audience and netizens.

[Tsk tsk, it looks like a peacock.]

Netizens, upon seeing this, exclaimed, "How can this be tolerated?"

【are you sure? ? ? ? 】

"Kid, are you playing with fire?"

This is blatant jealousy.

[Did our War God and the Crown Princess have such a good relationship that it offended you?]

[How dare you speak of my Highness like that? You're asking for death! Behold my Eighteen Subduing Pig Palms, ho!]

Those who insult my idol, no matter how far away, will be punished!

Ignore him. This kind of person is narrow-minded and has a dark side; he's unhappy with his own life, so he belittles others online.

[He's probably just a keyboard warrior who can only find a sense of superiority online.]

...

The netizens who were watching the show rushed to attack this netizen, and almost no one noticed Cheng Feng's speech in the background.

Qu Tong looked at the distraught old man Yuan beside her with a very complicated expression.

Why would he go and start a fire for no reason?

So bored~

Qu Tong changed her posture and continued watching the live stream.

After returning from the two countries, Si Yuting was promoted to marshal before Gong Yun, and Cheng Feng and Wen You were also promoted two ranks to major general.

Cheng Feng and his group had been performing very well and had high Glory Points, but because they were under Si Yuting's command and were affected by the military's ranking system, they did not level up quickly.

This time, each of them is leading hundreds of thousands of troops, so naturally their military ranks will be significantly promoted.

Many people who contributed to this cleanup and reform also received corresponding rewards.

Qu Tong was not surprised to see Xu An's figure; his rank as a lieutenant had risen another level.

Behind them were He Zhou, and Li Kun and others who were happily assigned to Xu An's command.

very nice.

Qu Tong was very happy for them, but considering the large number of people present, she couldn't go and share her joy with them.

Si Yuting told her that the entire conference would last from morning to afternoon, but before noon, Si Yuting came back to have lunch with her.

After dinner, Si Yuting took Qu Tong for a walk in the yard, applied anti-stretch mark oil to her stomach, and massaged her legs, feet, and waist.

As her belly grew larger, her weight also increased significantly, which put pressure on her veins, causing some swelling in her lower limbs. After each walk, she would feel some uncomfortable soreness and swelling, and pressing on them would leave a mark.

Actually, her symptoms were relatively mild, as they only appeared in the last month.

The doctor examined her and found nothing wrong; it's a normal phenomenon that will resolve itself after childbirth.

She also had pain in her lower back and pubic area. Even though she tried to exercise as little as possible, had daily massages from Wen You and Si Yuting, and ate more calcium-rich meats, it didn't alleviate the pain much. Sometimes the pain kept her awake at night.

There are many, many problems in the later stages of pregnancy, and it gets harder and harder as you get further along.

Qu Tong deeply felt how difficult it is to be a mother.

If it weren't for Wen You and Si Yuting taking such meticulous care of her, she would have really started grumbling and cursing.

Qu Tong occasionally let out soft moans, but Si Yuting couldn't muster any romantic thoughts at the moment. He was filled with tenderness and his hands became even gentler.

"Madam, Your Highness." Butler Chi knocked twice on the door from the outside.
