Chapter 997 Long Lost Relatives



Little Jiuxiang was very happy in the bathtub. He kept splashing water on himself and cooperated with Xia Chujian in giving him a bath.

After tidying up little Jiuxiang, Xia Chujian took a bath, then went to bed and took a nap holding the chubby little Jiuxiang.

When I woke up, I saw that it was dark outside.

She sat up and was about to get out of bed when she heard knocks on the door and Yingying's excited shouts.

She opened the door and hugged Yingying with a smile.

Yingying said, "Nice to meet you! You're finally back! We were all so worried!"

She couldn't go to Beichen Star right away because she had to take the college entrance examination. She was very nervous and hadn't been paying attention in class these past few days.

Xia Chujian said, "I'm back now, aren't I? Don't worry. By the way, I'm hungry and want to eat something."

Yingying said, "My mom said you slept for seven hours! I saw you were sleeping so soundly before that I didn't have the heart to wake you up."

Xia Chujian then looked at the time and sighed, "It's been a long time since I had a good sleep..."

Jiuxiang also climbed down from the bed at this time, staggered to Xia Chujian, and hugged her calves nervously.

Xia Chujian: “…”

She bent down, picked up the chubby child, and said to Yingying, "Yingying, come meet the new member of our family, Xia Jiuxiang!"

Yingying learned from Aunt Chen that Xia Chujian had brought back another child, and she was mentally prepared.

But she didn't expect that the child was so cute!

Moreover, there was an indescribable sense of intimacy, even stronger than what she felt for Wu Fu.

She couldn't help but stretch out her hand and said, "Let me hug you, okay?"

Xia Chujian asked Jiuxiang: "...Do you want Sister Yingying to hold you? Sister Yingying is also our family."

Jiuxiang looked at Yingying with his big eyes blinking, and slowly stretched out his hand towards her.

Yingying took him in her arms, hugged him tightly, and said, "This child and I hit it off right away. Could he really be my long-lost relative?"

Xia Chujian's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled and said, "How is that possible? I found him in the Forest of Strange Beasts. His family is gone..."

Yingying said regretfully: "It doesn't matter, we will treat him well in the future."

The two of them took Jiuxiang downstairs to eat.

In the restaurant downstairs, Xia Chujian and Jiuxiang shared a whole three-pound phoenix-tailed phoenix bird!

There is also a whole pot of soup and three big bowls of rice!

Seeing her like this, Aunt Chen said with concern, "How long has it been since you last had a good meal?"

After Aunt Chen finished speaking, she looked at the little fat boy with a somewhat indescribable look.

She thought, she finally knew why this child was so fat...

Xia Chujian is an adult, so it’s okay to eat more.

But this kid eats almost the same as Xia Chujian.

He and Xia Chujian shared a three-pound phoenix-tailed phoenix, a pot of soup, and a large pot of rice, which they almost split equally.

Aunt Chen and Yingying only ate the vegetables and ordinary pork that they usually ate.

After Xia Chujian finished eating, she said embarrassedly: "Aunt Chen, Yingying, you let us eat it all..."

Yingying smiled and said, "It's okay. We can just catch one whenever we want to eat one. Unlike you, you have to go back to the distant star whenever you want to eat one."

Xia Chujian nodded in agreement and said, "I want to graduate early and return to Yuanxing!"

Yingying said, "Why did you return to the distant star after graduating from college? There are no troops stationed here. Aren't you going to be the commander of a star destroyer?"

Xia Chujian: “…”

That’s right!

Aunt Chen changed the subject and asked, "How old is Jiuxiang?"

Xia Chujian said, "About one and a half? Judging from his size, he's about the same age as Wufu was at that time. But Wufu was already over two years old at that time."

Aunt Chen said, "Then why do you think he is one and a half years old, not more than two years old?"

Xia Chujian said: "Although he is quite big, judging from his language development, he is probably only one and a half years old."

Jiuxiang ignored him and continued to drink his soup attentively.

The small bowl of soup Xia Chujian gave him was indeed very small, so he drank bowl after bowl.

It was Yingying who took care of him. When she saw that he had finished drinking, she asked him if he wanted to drink more.

Of course he happily said, "Yes!"

After he drank six bowls, Xia Chujian stopped him: "... Stop drinking, Jiuxiang, your stomach will burst if you drink any more."

Jiuxiang pouted a little unhappily and put down the bowl of soup, which made Aunt Chen and Yingying feel distressed.

But looking at his bulging belly, neither of them could bring themselves to ask him to drink another bowl.

Xia Chujian said, "You drank so much today, don't wet the bed. I'm going to put diapers on you."

Aunt Chen said quickly, "I bought some diapers for Wufu before, but he hardly wore them."

Xia Chujian said, "That's great, give it to Jiuxiang."

Yingying took Jiuxiang to change his diapers, Xia Chujian and Aunt Chen went to the living room to drink tea, and the household robot Beijiayi went to clean up the dishes.

Xia Chujian saw Beijiayi's busy figure working on the cylindrical machine and said thoughtfully, "Beijiayi is pretty easy to get along with? Not as cunning as Liushun, right?"

Aunt Chen said with emotion: "I have never used a robot before, and I thought all robots were like Liushun."

"This time, after using Beijiayi, I realized that robots are not like Liushun."

"I don't know what's going on with this guy Liushun."

Xia Chujian thought for a moment and said, "Liushun was a gift from Chief Quan. I remember buying the most expensive model of the household robot at the time. It must be much smarter."

"Beijiayi is the cheapest household robot I've ever bought. It's definitely not as smart as Liushun."

Aunt Chen smiled and said, "I see. But I think a household robot just needs to be able to do housework; it doesn't need to be too intelligent."
