General Bo Jichen was waiting for them with his cub, like a bombshell that hit the heads of the 30 or so space pirates, leaving them completely bewildered. Except for Bai Shaoqing, the others retreated and formed a circle, whispering among themselves, "Is that dog Bo Jichen waiting for us to wipe us all out?"
"I think so. This dog really doesn't like us. What if he breaks his contract and sells us off? We're worth a lot of money!"
"That can't be right. Our daughter is Jiang Jiang. If he dares to sell us out and hold us hostage, do you think our daughter will let him get away with it?"
"Superficial. What does our daughter call him? She calls him Dad. He's as dear to both of us. Would our daughter turn against him? Wouldn't that put her in a difficult position?"
"Aren't you making a big fuss over nothing? Why should we be afraid of him? He's not the master of the palace. We'll just stick close to His Majesty Reros, won't we?"
"Hey, right, right, that dog is most afraid of His Majesty the Troia Empire. If we stick close to him, we won't be afraid of being tricked or sold out by that dog. We can also show off in front of him. It's a win-win situation!"
The 29 space pirates simultaneously raised their heads, looking at His Majesty the Emperor of the Troia Empire, who exuded a noble and composed aura and possessed an extraordinary appearance, and nodded heavily: "Hmm, reliable!"
Leilos was puzzled by their stares and was wondering if he had done something wrong when more than 20 space pirates approached: "Your Majesty of the Troia Empire, we are Jiang Jiang's parents. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"Yes, Your Majesty the Emperor of the Troia Empire, you are so handsome!"
Relos was taken aback by their enthusiasm, but quickly regained his composure: "It's a pleasure to meet you all too, please come in!"
The space pirates: "Please, please, please go first!"
Leilos nodded slightly, picked up the child, and walked away first.
The space pirates exchanged glances, applauding their own cleverness.
With such a strong backing, Bo Jichen, that dog, wouldn't dare to do anything to them.
Agares carried Jiang Si back to his palace, and she did not wake up the entire way.
He placed her on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and took the baby out of the infant basket that Bo Jichen was carrying. He placed it beside her.
The baby, who was almost 5 months old, was bigger and heavier than before. When placed next to Jiang Si, he seemed to sense his mother's presence and tried to nudge her. Jiang Si stopped touching him and, without crying or fussing, opened his big, dark eyes and babbled softly.
"What's wrong with her?" Bo Jichen looked at Jiang Si on the bed: "Her breathing is shallow, and her heartbeat is almost non-existent. She doesn't seem to be tired, nor does she seem to be asleep!"
Agares sat on the bed, gently brushing back the strands of hair that had fallen across her forehead. He looked at her with focused and earnest eyes: "I know she doesn't seem tired, nor does she seem asleep, but I don't want to admit it. I don't want to lose her. I'd rather she were asleep!"
Bo Jichen frowned, knelt directly on the bed, grasped Jiang Si's hand, and his purple pupils changed: "No pulse, no spiritual energy, her bodily functions..."
“Everything has stopped!” Agares finished his sentence. “She only has a faint breath, and other than that, all bodily functions have ceased!”
“Thirteen days ago, the moment she fell asleep, I knew that no matter how much spiritual energy I poured into her, it would be like throwing stones into the sea. Even when Dandan poured spiritual energy into her, it was useless, completely useless!”
“Yes, Daddy!” Jiang Dandan deactivated her invisibility and jumped onto the bed, sitting cross-legged and facing Bo Jichen. “I can’t wake Auntie up. I’ve tried so many methods, but I can’t wake her up!”
"Daddy, hurry up and think of a way! You're so smart, you have so many clever ideas, you're sure you can come up with a solution, right?"
"Quickly wake up Auntie! She promised me she'd make me her lackey and take me out to have fun. It'll just be the four of us: me, Big Baby, and Little Baby!"
Bo Jichen looked at his cub, a dragon with a human head, over a meter tall, sitting on the white bed with a dark complexion, its chubby little face looking at him expectantly, hoping he could come up with a solution.
Bo Jichen reached out and ruffled Jiang Dandan's hair, then looked at Agares: "My mental power is useless against her; it disappears as soon as it enters her body. I'll go find Lord Gong Ming; he's a level 7 plant healer..."
"No! Teacher!" Agares interrupted Bo Jichen, rejecting his suggestion: "Jiang Jiang doesn't like others examining her body. She doesn't trust anyone except Shu Xubai, not even me, and she doesn't trust me either!"
Agares choked up as he spoke his last words.
He should have been the person she trusted and loved the most, but he ruined everything himself. She resisted him and didn't trust him.
The laboratory and research institute, the places she hated most, were places he had mentioned to her more than once that expectant mothers carrying natural babies should be studied and protected.
She hates being studied and locked up because she has been subjected to having her blood drawn, being dissected, and being fused and decomposed countless times, which is what made her so powerful today and gave her the ability to destroy the world.
Others envy her, envy her strength, but they don't know that behind that strength lies only pain, only bloodshed, only cruelty.
“She fell asleep in front of me, and even if she sleeps like that for the rest of her life, I will not let anyone examine her body!” Agares looked up at Bo Jichen, his eyes red and glistening with tears, his voice hoarse but firm: “I will not hand her over to anyone except Shu Xubai, and I will not let anyone examine her.”
"I love her, teacher, I love her, I can't live without her, but I hurt her, I hurt her!"
Jiang Dandan: "..."
No, no, I can't cry, I can't cry.
Uncle Dog, don't cry, don't cry.
It was so crying it wanted to cry too.
What's with all the chatter?
What about the willow trees?
What about Lingxi?
Why are they all gone?
“No, no, we won’t look for anyone except Shu Xubai,” Bo Jichen said quickly. “I’ll send someone to Earth in the Milky Way to look for Shu Xubai.”
"They've known each other for a long time. Jiang Jiang is in a coma, he'll definitely find a way, he'll definitely find a way, don't worry, don't worry!"
Agares's voice grew increasingly hoarse: "I'm not in a hurry, teacher, I'm not in a hurry, thank you for your help!"
Bo Jichen put Jiang Si's hand under the covers, covered her up, got out of bed, picked up Jiang Dandan with one hand, and patted Agares's shoulder with the other: "Go and bring the big baby over. Maybe if the two children are with her, she will wake up!"
Agareth's reddened eyes suddenly lit up: "Okay, teacher!"
However, as soon as Bo Jichen left, Agares held Jiang Si's hand and pressed it against her forehead, tears streaming down her face, her voice hoarse, "Jiang Jiang, I won't do anything you don't like or don't want to do."
"If you want to sleep, I'll stay with you, I'll watch over you. Once you've slept well, you can come back. I'll always be here, always!"
Jiang Si looked like a sleeping beauty, lying on a clean white bed, breathing shallowly, her heartbeat almost nonexistent, her face serene, her complexion fair and rosy.
The baby was sleeping soundly in her arms, babbling and making bubbles; it was incredibly cute.
Bo Jichen carried his cub out of the Agares Palace and warned it, "Little cub, congratulations on hatching, congratulations on growing into a little dragon, and congratulations on us being able to meet."
“But now you go back to your father’s side and try to please him. Don’t let him notice anything wrong with Jiang Jiang.”
Jiang Dandan struggled to break free from him, baring her teeth and grimacing like a rebellious child: "Why can't I tell Dad that Auntie is bad? Dad has the right to know!"
Bo Jichen smacked it on the head with a steel coin: "Your aunt is in poor health, and your father has the right to know. Aren't you afraid your father can't handle it?"
Jiang Dandan opened her mouth to bite him, but couldn't reach him. She said angrily, "Bo Jichen, you're just a self-righteous dragon who wants to deprive Dad of his right to know!"
"Don't tell me your father can't stand it. Your father is the Emperor of the Empire. He has seen all kinds of storms. Even if he can't stand it, he has the right to know."
"Don't think that you're doing everything for Dad's good. If you're going to do everything for Dad, you shouldn't hide anything from Auntie."
"You're just like Uncle Dog, always acting like you're doing this for our own good, but you don't know what we're really thinking or what we want!"
"Hey!" Bo Jichen picked up Jiang Dandan's little horn. "I know what you're thinking and what you want even if you don't tell me, but you're my child. You found me, so you should know that you can't do whatever you want like other dragons!"
Jiang Dandan tried to lash him with her tail, but it was caught and tied in a knot. She tried to scratch him with her claws, but they were too short to reach him. With her chubby little face puffed out, she said, "You stinky dragon, you're despicable, you're shameless, you dog!"
Bo Jichen didn't treat it as a cub at all, but as an independent individual, a dragon just like himself: "Likewise, although you are my cub, you are not much more noble than me."
"But let me tell you, in my heart, your father will always be number one, and you... can only be number five!"
Jiang Dandan glared angrily: "Second brother, third brother, who's the fourth brother?"
It is not his biological child, absolutely not his biological child.
It wouldn't be so blind as to choose such a dragon as its father!
Its dragon father should be a golden dragon that shines brightly, or a black dragon that is filthy and black. If that doesn't work... a blue dragon or a yellow dragon will do. It definitely isn't this wicked, black-water-sucking blue dragon in front of it.
Bo Jichen was so angry he wanted to kill Long Bushi: "Your father is first, your aunt is second, the eldest son is third, the little son is fourth, you are fifth, and your uncle is sixth!"
"Oh!" Jiang Dandan exclaimed, "Thank you!"
Bo Jichen chuckled, "No need to be polite!"
He carried Jiang Dandan, her tail curled up, her two front paws clutching her little chest, her eyes wide open, completely lacking any semblance of decorum, from the harem to the front palace.
Many of the guards and palace maids saw it and couldn't understand why General Bo Jichen was carrying a lizard, especially a black one.
Thirty space pirates arrived at the palace and received the most lavish welcome. They were served all sorts of delicious food and drinks. Someone opened their personal terminal, took a picture, and posted it anonymously online, saying, "Special offering from the Troia Empire's Royal Palace, you deserve it!"
The magnificent palace exuded an air of wealth and luxury. Various fruits, vegetables, juices, and wines filled the long tables, and people dressed in bizarre and outlandish attire were present.
Once the photo was released, even anonymously, seeing these strangely dressed people reminded netizens of the Red Eyebrows Fleet's outrageous street brawls back in the Federation.
"We've found the big cub! They've returned to the Troia Empire. I must say, these space pirates are truly unprecedented and will likely never be seen again!"
"Yes, yes, yes, these walking Star Coins are now openly walking among the high-ranking officials of various countries and even residing in their homes, and no one dares to hit them, no one dares to scold them, and no one dares to arrest them."
"You know, they're a string of star coins, worth a fortune!"
"Now they've gone to the Troia Empire again, and they're even honored guests! My goodness, if I had known being a space pirate could be this exciting, I would have definitely left my home and become a space pirate!"
"Hey, I really want to know how I can join your Red Eyebrows Fleet. I'm asking online urgently. Please reply if you receive this message."
"+Communication number, I also want to know how to join them and be able to roam freely in various countries."
"Looking back, I almost got recruited by their boss, but I didn't go, I didn't go, and now I regret it so much!"
People online are screaming about it, wishing they could become space pirates right now.
"Kiss!" Bo Jichen carried his cub to His Majesty's palace. Lei Luosi was breastfeeding the golden-eyed cub. Without looking up, he stared at the child nursing and asked, "Did you give the child to Jiang Jiang?"
“Given it!” Bo Jichen replied, releasing his grip on Jiang Dandan’s hand.
Jiang Dandan darted to Lei Luosi's arm like a little eel, cautiously touching it and calling out in a childish voice, "Daddy~~"
Bo Jichen: "!!!!"
Why is the dragon acting so coquettish?
It has completely disgraced the dragon.
I should have known better than to bring it.
When Lei Luo heard the shout, his heart skipped a beat. He glanced to the side and saw Jiang Dandan carefully grabbing his sleeve with her little paws, looking up at him with her big, dark, watery eyes, and calling out again, "Daddy~~...I'm your little egg baby!"
Leilos's heart melted instantly. Looking at him, he exclaimed, "Little Egg Baby!"
Jiang Dandan's voice grew even sweeter and cuter: "Yes, Daddy, it's me, your beloved little Dandan~~"
"Wait a minute!" Relos suddenly remembered that he was still breastfeeding: "After Daddy finishes feeding your little sister, Daddy will hold you, okay?"
Jiang Dandan is so sensible, so obsequious, so good at flattering people. Her voice is sweet, overflowing with the flavors of tea and milk: "Okay, Daddy, Daddy's little Dandan will always love Daddy and always wait for Daddy. Daddy, feed him slowly, don't be like Daddy who's in a hurry. You made him choke when you were feeding him just now. I told him to be careful, and he yelled at me. Daddy~~"
