Chapter 6 Mecha Soldiers
"dad…"
Liu Qingqing choked with sobs.
She felt really wronged. She felt wronged that her family had abandoned her in her previous life, and she felt wronged that she only had a father now.
In fact, Liu Qingqing has never been a particularly strong girl. It’s just that no one protected her before, so she tried hard to protect herself.
She worked hard to upgrade, to be liked, and to become excellent.
She wanted to prove that she could live well on her own.
But now she feels that she was really tired in her previous life!
If possible, she still hopes to have someone who can be her support and be her connection with this strange world.
Just like that, Liu Qingqing fainted from crying.
There is no way, we cannot expect too much from a child's physical fitness.
When Liu Qingqing woke up, she found herself sleeping in her own small bed. The bed was not actually soft, but it was good enough compared to Xi Chen's.
Ever since Xi Chen adopted her as his daughter, he made a small bed specifically for Liu Qingqing.
Because the area of the small house did not allow for a large bed, the bed was placed on the side of the house near the window.
Liu Qingqing glanced out the window and saw that it was already completely dark.
But this time, for the first time ever, there were candles on the table in the shabby house. However, these candles were extremely crudely made and could not compare to the candles from the ancient Blue Star era.
However, because power outages are common at night on the garbage planet, candles are considered a precious resource on this planet.
Before, Xi Chen never lit candles at night and always asked Liu Qingqing to go to bed before dark.
Liu Qingqing looked around but didn't see Xi Chen.
She felt panicky, and now she just wanted to see Xi Chen urgently.
Just then, the door creaked open.
Liu Qingqing turned her head and saw that Xichen had many wounds on his body. She was horrified and quickly got out of bed and ran over to support Xichen's arm.
"Dad, where have you been? Why are there wounds all over your body?"
Liu Qingqing was furious. From her experience, she knew that these wounds were caused by humans.
So who was so bold as to bully her father where she wasn't seeing?
When she finds out, she will never let those people go.
A sinister glint flashed across Liu Qingqing's eyes.
Xi Chen clearly felt that Liu Qingqing was in a bad mood, and he felt a little guilty.
"What can happen to me? Look at your father, my dear. I'm a strong man!"
As he said this, he pretended to pat his chest.
It wouldn't have mattered if he hadn't slapped her, but Xi Chen's slap almost gave him a stitch in the side.
Xi Chen began to cough violently.
Liu Qingqing quickly pulled off Xi Chen's clothes, and then saw that Xi Chen's body was covered with scars.
Her eyes were red and she gritted her teeth to keep her voice steady.
"Who did this?"
Xi Chen felt even more guilty.
Liu Qingqing noticed at a glance that something was wrong with his expression, and she pulled Xi Chen aside to continue questioning him.
"Who did it?"
When Xi Chen saw that something was wrong, he quickly comforted her softly:
"No one, it's all my own fault."
Then he told Liu Qingqing the whole story.
It turned out that Liu Qingqing fainted from crying in the morning, and he didn't know how to deal with it. He was anxious and helpless.
By the afternoon, Liu Qingqing still hadn't made any movement, and Xi Chen could no longer sit still.
He remembered that there was a family about fifteen kilometers away from the small shabby house who had healing devices brought from other planets.
So Xichen decided to go to that family's house to borrow the treatment device.
But a therapeutic device uses less energy each time it is used, so why would that family lend it to someone completely unrelated like Xichen?
So he decided to take a risk and steal the treatment device on a dark and windy night.
However, he was discovered on the spot while he was in action. After a beating and kicking, Xi Chen was thrown out.
Xi Chen didn't care about the injuries on his body. He was afraid that his daughter would be scared when she woke up and couldn't see him, so he rushed back to the small shabby house in the dark.
After hearing this, Liu Qingqing's facial expression was like the calm before the storm.
Xi Chen has become a daughter slave since he became a father. He dotes on his daughter every day, and it is even more surprising that his usually cheerful daughter suddenly becomes so serious and calm.
Xi Chen said he was a little scared.
However, Liu Qingqing did not say anything. She just calmly treated and bandaged Xi Chen's wound.
After everything was settled, Liu Qingqing went back to her bed without saying anything.
No words were spoken during this process.
Xi Chen felt uneasy.
He looked at the back of Liu Qingqing's head and became more and more anxious.
Finally, Xi Chen made up his mind and walked to Liu Qingqing's bed and touched her soft hair.
"My dear, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have thought of stealing other people's things. But... I really had no choice at the time. I didn't have any treatment equipment, and I was afraid that something would happen to you. You are the only one I have... I'm sorry, my dear, I embarrassed you..."
Xi Chen spoke incoherently, but before he could finish, Liu Qingqing suddenly stood up and hugged Xi Chen's neck.
"Are you stupid... How could I dislike you?"
Liu Qingqing's voice was obviously trembling. When Xi Chen heard Liu Qingqing's crying, he became at a loss again.
"I would never think that you would abandon me. I don't care if you steal things or not. I'm just afraid of what I would do if something happened to you. You are my father."
After saying that, she started crying again.
Liu Qingqing felt that it must be because of this body, otherwise why would she become so tearful? Just today she felt like she was going to shed all the tears she had in her lifetime.
But she didn't feel ashamed. She was also a girl, and after crying she could face the future better.
Xi Chen tried clumsily to coax Liu Qingqing. It was hard to imagine how a nearly 1.9-meter-tall man would feel when he was at a loss as to how to comfort a little girl.
At night, Liu Qingqing insisted on sleeping with Xi Chen.
Her small body lay down on the bed, curled up in Xichen's arms, and Xichen also hugged his little girl. The night wind was cold, and he thought hugging her would keep her warm.
As he thought about it, he felt a little sleepy again.
When he was about to lose consciousness, he vaguely felt the person in his arms turn over flexibly.
"Dad, you have to protect yourself. You are the most important."
Someone was whispering in his ear.
Seeing that he was fast asleep, Liu Qingqing ran back to her own little bed.
After all, she is not a real child. Although she really regards Xichen as her father, she is not used to sleeping in the same bed with him.
Liu Qingqing doesn't think she is a good person, so she will definitely avenge Xi Chen.
She knew Xi Chen was wrong, but so what? She had lived in the apocalypse for nearly ten years, believing in the law of the jungle.
However, this matter needs to be postponed for a while, after all, there is a problem with this matter.
That is, she didn't understand why Xi Chen didn't resist. She had also seen that family before, and it was obvious that her father's physical and mental strength could definitely crush their family.
Why did Xi Chen stay on the garbage planet? Why did he never use his powerful mental and physical strength, and only pick up garbage every time?
It seems like... Xi Chen is deliberately hiding something.
Liu Qingqing will definitely find a way to know these things.
The next day, Liu Qingqing agreed to Xi Chen's suggestion that she go to school.
After all, she needs a stepping stone now. Although the educational ability of Garbage Star is not good, every class will have the opportunity to apply for the Alliance Military Academy.
She needed this opportunity to take her and Xi Chen away from this garbage planet.
So when Xi Chen asked her what she wanted to be, she filled in mecha soldier without hesitation.
Logistics soldiers had a low status and few opportunities to advance. Mecha soldiers cost a lot of money in the early stages and offered little return, only becoming profitable in the later stages. Therefore, mecha soldiers were the most suitable for her at this point.
So Liu Qingqing gloriously became a mecha soldier in the only school on this planet.
