Chapter 11
Zhu Xiaoling was just about to happily help her mother hold Fuzai when her wrist phone suddenly rang.
It was called by the city order police inspector. As the original owner of the vehicle involved, she was required to come and cooperate with the investigation immediately after confirming that she did not need medical assistance.
The girl had a sad face. She had just bought her flying car and hadn't driven it twice when she encountered such a serious car accident. Even if it wasn't her fault, what would she do if her driver's license was revoked?
Si Yin planned to go with her. Zhu Zhengde glanced at Zhu Xiyuan, who was coughing a few times on the hospital bed, and sighed, "You stay here. I'll come."
Zhu Xiaoling: =口=
Zhu Xiaoling smiled timidly and said, "Dad... Dad, I won't bother you with such a small matter..."
Zhu Zhengde gave him a sidelong glance: "Small matter? A small matter would make your brother lie here? A small matter would be personally dialed by the police inspector? You even found me here!"
Now they finally understood how Zhu Zhengde got the news immediately and rushed to Green Private Hospital.
Zhu Xiaoling shut up immediately.
Whether you agree or not, it's settled. The Zhu family has always followed the old man's lead.
Therefore, on the way back, there were only Sally, Zhu Fu and Zhu Shaoquan.
Before retiring, Zhu Zhengde was an important member of the emperor's cabinet think tank and held a very high status. His Majesty was sympathetic to the elder and treated the Zhu family very well. This standard flying car alone was many times more advanced than the one Zhu Xiaoling had bought with great caution after saving credit points for a long time.
Evil gods are a product of the Middle Ages. Although we have witnessed the development of mankind from the dark and ignorant age into the open modern society, that was only limited to the fact that cars ran on the ground and not everyone could own an airplane.
Now, with the blink of an eye, civilization has leaped into the interstellar age. Skyscrapers are more spacious than before, and all technology is brand new. Even the once omnipotent gods cannot take their eyes off them.
Strictly speaking, this was the second time Zhu Fu took a good look at the scenery outside the car window.
The first time was on the way to the dock on St. Helier in the Beta Quadrant, and this is the second time.
As one of the most powerful countries in the universe, the Human Empire dominates the Alpha Quadrant, which is much stronger than the Beta Quadrant.
Therefore, even though it is not the main star, the street scene of Bach II is far better than that of the ownerless Saint Helier.
The azure sky was filled with shuttle tracks crisscrossing and twisting like giant keels, vehicles that could adjust their flight altitude at will, short-distance teleporters everywhere, various energy and material compression devices, and artificial green plants that could adjust to the natural weather...
That was much more shocking than any sci-fi movie that the evil god watched to kill time when he was bored.
However, Zhu Fu always kept her own character in mind. While looking out the window with fascination, she also stayed away from Zhu Shaoquan.
This was not just acting, he really hated Zhu Shaoquan so much that even breathing in the same space was disgusting and unbearable.
Sally noticed her grandson's discomfort, so she asked the driver to stop the car temporarily and moved her second son to the front passenger seat.
Zhu Xiaoling was originally scheduled to pick up a family of three, so the flying car was not equipped with a child seat. Sally held Fu Fu in her arms and rubbed his ears from time to time.
The kitten loves having its ears rubbed, and it squints its eyes in comfort.
Sally lifted the child's clothes again and saw the bruise.
It was much less shocking than the first time he saw it in the hospital, but the boy's skin was as white and tender as tofu, and any flaw was very obvious.
Even after watching it so many times, Sally was still heartbroken and complained, "Koizumi, why did you pinch him? If you have any dissatisfaction with your brother, you can't take it out on a child!"
Zhu Shaoquan turned around immediately: "I didn't!"
When he turned around, he scared the kitten again. Fu Fu suddenly turned her face and buried it in her grandmother's arms, her tail shaking.
Zhu Shaoquan: “…”
After much thought, Sally felt that her son would not be so cruel to a young child, let alone his own nephew, so she tried to excuse him: "Maybe you don't know how to hold a child, and you strangled him too hard?"
Zhu Shaoquan thought about it over and over, but couldn't figure it out. Although he couldn't say he was very experienced in holding children, he knew his limits, and it was impossible for him to deliberately pinch Zhu Fu.
Where did the bruises on the little thing come from?
Sally thought this reason was valid, so she made a final judgment before Zhu Shaoquan could respond: "I told you to get married soon, but look at you, you're so grown up that you can't even hold a baby. Don't touch Fu Fu anymore."
Zhu Shaoquan has no way to defend himself, so he better shut up.

Forty minutes later, at Kemp Manor.
Before Zhu Zhengde was diagnosed with health problems, the Zhu family lived on the mother planet so that His Majesty could summon them at any time.
After Zhu Zhengde retired, his assistant Sally naturally came back with him, and his second son, whom he valued the most, was transferred to Bach II to work in the finance department; his youngest daughter Zhu Xiaoling was a freelance designer and could work anywhere, so they also returned to the place where they grew up.
His Majesty not only agreed to let them return to their hometown, but also generously rewarded him with the Camp Manor, which was originally the royal family's vacation home.
Kemp Manor is located on the most beautiful sea area of Bach II Star. Moreover, because it is royal land, not only is the manor beautifully built, but no one disturbs it within a radius of 100 miles, making it the perfect place for recuperation.
Your Majesty loves and cherishes talents, and your subjects also respond with loyalty. This is one of the reasons why the empire is so powerful.
The flying car slowly descended and stopped at the door of the main house. Before Sally could even unbuckle her seat belt, the door slid open and the child in her arms was taken away by two people who had hurried over.
"Oh, is this the young master? It must be the young master!"
"The young master's companion spirit is actually a cat. Oh my God, Francis, look at his ears and tail, they are so cute!"
"I know, Aunt He, calm down—Ahhhh, it's Kitten!!!"
...Fuzi was suddenly taken away by two weirdos, and was stunned.
These are the two most senior servants in the Zhu family, the butler Francis and the wet nurse Aunt He. Both of them have been with Zhu Zhengde since he married Sally.
After Zhu Xiyuan was born, Sally was still busy with work, and he was almost raised by Aunt He. He grew from a small and soft ball into a handsome and outstanding young man.
Later, Zhu Xiyuan and Si Yin eloped from the Alpha Quadrant for love and stayed away for five years. They never came back. The one who was most sad was not Sally or Zhu Xiaoling, but Aunt He.
As for Francis, he is not human—he is from the star Walpole.
The most special thing about the people of this planet is that although they only have one eye, their senses are quite sharp. Before the Zhu family installed the most advanced security system, Francis was their best observer. With one eye, he could see in all directions and with one ear, he could clearly capture any movement.
The Walpoles did not evolve companion spirits because their sense of touch was equally developed. Francis liked furry companion spirits very much, especially when they were in their cub state like Fu Fu. He now wanted to roll on the ground a few times to express his excitement.
Seeing the kitten being passed back and forth between the two people, Sally became anxious as she got out of the car: "Hey, hey, take it easy, don't drop the baby!"
——The name has changed from Fu Fu to Bao Bao, which is even sweeter than Zhu Xiyuan’s calling of “Zi Zi”.
After all, the evil god still resides in Zhu Fu's soul, so she was a little uncomfortable with being called that for a while.
But there is no way, children are children's bodies, and children have to accept the manipulation of adults.
Aunt He got the first chance to hold the baby and said with a smile, "Don't worry, ma'am. I've held his father for so many years, he'll be absolutely fine!"
The kitten caught the key words and moved its ears.
dad?
Could it be that this seemingly kind aunt took care of my father when he was a child?
He suddenly felt more intimate with Aunt He, and planned to ask Aunt He to find some photos of Zhu Xiyuan as a child for him when she had time.
When her fathers were still alive in her previous life, technology had not yet developed to the point of cameras. Zhu Fu had only seen her two fathers when they were young in portraits. They were two little kids among a large group of children raised by the Presbyterian Church.
The artist's painting skills were too limited. Looking around, the boys crowded together all looked the same, and it was impossible to tell which one was Zhu Xiyuan and which one was Si Yin.
Not knowing what her fathers were like in the past has always been one of Zhu Fu’s regrets.
Zhu Shaoquan got out of the passenger seat and also smiled: "Was Big Brother this cute when he was a child?"
Aunt He's smile faded a lot when she saw him: "Second Young Master."
Zhu Xiyuan's departure was not only due to Si Yin, but also largely due to Zhu Shaoquan's exclusion and Zhu Zhengde's injustice.
Zhu Zhengde had done her a favor, and she couldn't forget it. But she had always disliked Zhu Shaoquan, a naughty and mischievous little boy since childhood.
Aunt He subconsciously held Fu Fu a little further away from Zhu Shaoquan, and the smile on her lips faded: "Of course, the eldest young master is the most beautiful child I have ever seen."
Then he lowered his head again, touched foreheads with the kitten, and smiled again: "But now it seems that the young master is even more adorable!"
Fu Fu can feel other people's likes and dislikes and sincerity. It is obvious that her father's former nanny loves him and likes him at first sight.
Moreover, since she was taken away from her grandmother without any notice, she must have a certain status in the Zhu family.
Well, it’s someone who can be won over to your side.
The boy pouted, his eyes were round and watery, and he acted coquettishly towards Aunt He in a baby voice: "Auntie, Fu Fu is in pain..."
