Chapter 475 I made an appointment with Lin Mo

Children in interstellar space have naturally faster brain development; a one-year-old child already has simple thinking and can have normal conversations.

The little boy glanced at Qu Tong's right hand resting on her knee, hesitated for only a moment, and then nodded.

Qu Tong noticed the little boy's movements, raised her right hand and waved it in front of him, then smiled and asked, "Scared?"

She just used this hand to manipulate the vines and take Qu Jiaojiao's life.

The little boy's face showed fear, but he seemed afraid that Qu Tong would make a move and dared not back down. He clasped his hands together, not daring to look directly at Qu Tong, and gave a weak "hmm".

Qu Tong lowered her hand, no longer wanting to scare her, and looked around the room. "Is your aunt good to you?"

“Okay…” The little boy nodded subconsciously, then shook his head after a while and said in a slightly louder voice, “No.”

When he was feeling uneasy, he dared to look at Qu Tong, but only for a second or two before looking down again.

Qu Tong raised an eyebrow; although she was a little slow, she wasn't too stupid.

Qu Tong noticed that the little boy instinctively grabbed his arm when he said something was wrong, so she directly pulled his hand over.

The little boy seemed to be born without the ability to resist; he only flinched slightly before letting Qu Tong roll up his sleeves to examine him.

The skin of a nearly one-year-old child should be soft and fair, but it has many obvious red and purple marks on it, some from pinching and others from bumping into things.

Qu Tong didn't know why she felt a little uncomfortable with this, but she wouldn't do good deeds casually.

He pulled his clothes down again, stood up, walked to Si Yuting's side, and asked, "Is there any good way to handle this?"

She didn't intend to kill him outright, but she also couldn't just send him to an orphanage; it would be best if she could keep him under her watchful eye.

Si Yuting's suggestion was exactly what he wanted: "We can send him to my planet, where there are many of my retired subordinates. Someone will be watching over him."

"That works too." Qu Tong believed that Si Yuting had a way to handle the relevant procedures, so that he could learn some revolutionary knowledge and maybe join the army in the future, instead of getting his brains muddled and thinking about taking revenge on her.

They didn't hide their conversation from the little boy, and Qu Tong didn't care. Anyway, he had seen her kill someone, and the fact that he didn't cry proved that he still had some courage.

After making his plans, Si Yuting beckoned to Lan Yuelin: "Come here."

Lan Yuelin glanced cautiously at Si Yuting, then obediently came over and walked behind Qu Tong...

From Si Yuting's perspective, his entire figure was hidden behind Qu Tong.

Si Yuting raised an eyebrow, indicating that he understood and didn't want to go to his planet.

Qu Tong noticed this too, smiled, and deliberately scared him, "If you don't go, you'll be stuck here alone, starving and freezing."

Children can't hide their expressions at all; their little faces scrunched up, their hands twisting and turning as if they've encountered some monumental problem.

Qu Tong wasn't in a hurry and observed his reaction with great interest.

Lan Yuelin hesitated for a while, then finally mustered up the courage to tug at Qu Tong's sleeve and timidly said, "Following Aunt... Aunt..."

Qu Tong's smile deepened. "Your aunt is dead. Are you sure you want to go with her?"

Lan Yuelin looked at Qu Tong's wicked smile, shrank back, and then shook his head frantically: "My aunt said she's my sister, and also... she's my aunt..."

Lan Yuelin tried hard to express himself, but it was clearly beyond the thinking capacity of his little brain, and he spoke haltingly.

But Qu Tong inexplicably understood.

Oh, so you were talking about her.

Can a little brain distinguish things clearly? It just recognizes things randomly.

Qu Tong gently raised her left hand and summoned the crimson vines.

Lan Yuelin was so frightened that he fell to the ground.

Qu Tong scoffed, "Do you still want to follow me now?"

With a snap of the fingers, the vines turned a lush, vibrant green.

Despite being terrified and with tears welling up in her eyes, Lan Yuelin stubbornly bit her lip and mumbled, "Auntie..."

"Idiot." Qu Tong cursed, then directed Teng Man to pull the man up from the ground. Turning to Si Yuting, she said, "Send him to Luo Yi Star. Tang Shigui and the others are there."

Si Yuting looked at the stunned little boy and said, "Okay."

Lan Yuelin was temporarily taken back to Yuelan Bay, and will be sent back to Luoyi Star when the time is right.

Before this, Lan Yuelin had entrusted Qianqian with taking care of him.

Some necessary procedures were also handed over to Wu Yue and his subordinates to handle.

Seeing that the little boy was all dirty, Qianqian took him to take a bath and change his clothes.

While taking a shower, Qianqian specifically came out and called Qu Tong.

When Qu Tong went inside, she discovered that Lan Yuelin's injuries were far more extensive than what she had seen during the day.

There are marks on my neck and legs, from pinching with fingers and scratching with nails.

There was a bulge on the back of the left side of his head. The blood at the wound had dried and was stuck to his hair. The surrounding area was purplish, indicating that it had not been treated with any medication.

It's hard to imagine that a one-year-old child would have so many injuries. Is Qu Jiaojiao taking her anger out on Lan Yuelin?

Perhaps children also have a sense of good and evil, which is why Lan Yuelin didn't cry at all when Qu Jiaojiao died, but instead followed his enemy.

After instructing Qianqian to help him with his hygiene after washing up, Qu Tong went to see Xiaoxue.

Xiaoxue was nursing in Si Yuting's arms with a bottle when she saw Qu Tong arrive. She glanced at her sideways and stretched out a hand as if to greet her.

Holding Xiaoxue's soft hand, she thought, she couldn't bear to let her daughter suffer even the slightest harm.

Perhaps she didn't like children that much at first.

But since it's the fruit of her love and the child she's willing to bring into the world, she will take responsibility.

I will never let her have the unhappy childhood that I did.

She will give her enough love, give her the best, and try her best to raise her well, just like raising herself again when she was a child.

Xiaoxue played for a while and then fell asleep. Qu Tong went to the outer room and talked to Si Yuting about her recent plans.

"I made an appointment with Lin Mo. There are some things I need to discuss with him about my second superpower. He's arriving on the capital planet tomorrow."

Si Yuting frowned, stopping his kneading of Qu Tong's hand, a strange emotion seeming to arise within him: "He knows about your second ability?"

"Yes, he and I are from the same place." Qu Tong didn't intend to hide it; she would slowly reveal her background to Si Yuting.

Si Yuting said coldly, "No wonder you're so familiar with him, and even sent your most luxurious cruise ship to help you escape."

Qu Tong couldn't help but notice the obvious sourness. She smiled and tilted her head, saying, "He has someone he likes, and he's deeply in love. He's contacting me because he's looking for his way home."

"If you find Ali, will you go back?" Si Yuting tightened his grip, staring at Qu Tong with an extremely serious expression.

Qu Tong planted a quick kiss on Si Yuting's lips, "What do you think?"

Si Yuting's lips unconsciously curled upwards. "No."

"Yes," Qu Tong affirmed, then brought up another matter, "I'd like to go back to Luo Yi Star with my master later, is that alright? It might take a while."

Qu Tong used a consultative tone.

"How long?" Si Yuting asked.

"Maybe a month. I've been away for too long. Xiang Bin said the flower fields on Luo Yi Star are starting to wither."
