Jing Wu, as expected of a child from a military family, showed none of the mischievousness or rebelliousness typical of children his age, and was very proactive in helping everyone.
However, he always cared a lot about Chen Liu. As a fellow genius, he naturally didn't want to be outdone, and the concept he had been taught since childhood was that one should not be inferior to others.
“This kid is sometimes too competitive, but he always manages to win, whether in terms of intelligence or strength. So he’s a bit arrogant,” Yun Hu said.
Meanwhile, Jing Wu also wanted to show himself to Chen Liu.
“Brother Chen Liu, would you like me to teach you military boxing? I also started learning military boxing when I was four years old,” Jing Wu said to Chen Liu.
Chen Liu thought for a moment and said, "I'm already learning Xingyi Quan. Learning military boxing might be a bit confusing."
"Xingyi Quan?"
Jing Wu had known the Yun Hu family since childhood and had heard his father say that Yun Hu's father was the world's number one Xingyi Quan master, one of the few who could be called a grandmaster. His father himself was ashamed of his inferiority.
If Chen Liu weren't so short, he would have liked to compete with him.
“Brother Jingwu, you don’t need to compare yourself to me. I’m the child of an alien, and I’m different from normal people,” Chen Liu suddenly said.
Jing Wu was taken aback, not expecting to be instructed by Chen Liu. But he could only nod helplessly.
Seeing that Jing Wu nodded, Chen Liu prepared to feed the rabbits. He often helped with feeding them, and the feeding frequency also had to be tripled at three times the flow rate. So Chen Liu often helped with feeding them as well. He also did what he could in terms of camp construction, such as handing water to everyone or helping to carry things.
Therefore, Chenliu has always been a treasure to everyone.
Jing Wu looked around and then went to help. He was older and could do some heavy work, so he helped carry water and organize firewood.
Meanwhile, Li Lan, another newcomer to the micro-world, was helping to prepare the meals.
It was her first time encountering such primitive pots and stoves, and she felt a little uncomfortable. But when she learned that they had made all of this, and even the spatula in her hand was hammered out one by one, she was incredibly surprised.
“All the houses here are designed in the cloud style, and we also have an oil press and a windmill, which are also designed in the cloud style,” Jiang Yining said to Li Lan with a smile.
Li Lan knew her son was studying this, but when she saw that everything in front of her was designed by her son, she suddenly felt a sense of unreality. No wonder she felt that her son had matured a lot recently; it turned out that he had learned too much in the micro-world.
She looked at Jiang Yining again. This girl was so understanding. She knew that what a mother would be happiest about was seeing her son achieve something, so she told her these things.
So, after finishing her meal, she called Yun aside.
"Son, I remember you used to like a girl named Jiang Yining, but now something seems off. Has something happened?"
Yun's eyes darted away as she said, "It's nothing, I just don't like you anymore."
“But you still sneak peeks at her sometimes, and Mom sees it all,” Li Lan said.
"Mom, just leave it alone," Yun said impatiently.
Li Lan stared at Yun Shi; there was definitely something wrong. She could tell her son liked that girl. On the contrary, the girl didn't seem to care much about Yun Shi.
Feeling a little guilty from the glare, Yun hesitated and said, "I just feel that I hope my future lover's first time will be with me."
Li Lan paused for a moment, then asked, "You mean that girl used to be..."
Yun nodded and said, "I later learned that she had been with a man before, I think he was a teacher, but I don't know the specifics and it's not convenient to ask for details."
"So do you still think she's a good girl?" Li Lan asked.
Yun nodded and said, "Of course, otherwise why would I..."
Before Yun Shi could finish speaking, Li Lan suddenly raised her hand and slapped him across the face.
She said with a mixture of heartache and indifference, "You're not as good as your father. I really wish I hadn't raised you."
Yun Shi was dumbfounded. Li Lan had hit him a few times when he was little, but after he became a little older, Li Lan never laid a hand on him again. He never expected that he would be hit on the very first day his mother entered the Micro Realm.
They were talking right behind the woodshed, so no one noticed what was happening.
However, Yun Hu called Yun Shi aside during dinner, and his expression was quite cold. Yun Shi had been separately reprimanded by his parents that day, making him feel as if he had disappointed both of them.
“I’ve heard everything from your mother,” Yun Hu said. “Stop pursuing Yining.”
Yun looked up at her father in surprise, not understanding why he said that.
"Yining is a good girl. Whether in the online world or in real life, she is so understanding, meticulous, kind, and principled. If you pursue a girl like that with such dogshit male chauvinism, you don't deserve her."
Yun Hu looked at Yun Shi and said, "Your dad does have a lot of male chauvinism, but I never discriminate against women. It's normal for a girl her age to have a past. It's not even a mistake; it's just normal dating."
“But I…” Yun hesitated, unable to finish her sentence.
Yun Hu shook his head, a look of disappointment in his eyes, and said, "Just like your mother said, I don't know who instilled these ideas in you. If it was me who influenced you, then I really can't escape the blame. I thought you had matured during this time, but I didn't expect you to still be so naive."
Yun was somewhat shocked. His father had never been this disappointed when he chose ancient architecture instead of military school.
“Your mother dated a man before she married me. They dated for four years and lived together for two years. As her father, I shouldn’t be telling you this. But I’m telling you so that you can reflect on your actions.”
After Yun finished speaking, he left to find Li Lan, who was sitting on a bench nearby. Yun noticed that Li Lan, who had her back to him, seemed to be wiping something on her face.
He silently returned to the campfire, where everyone was chatting and laughing, and the newcomer Jing Wu was demonstrating a set of military boxing for them.
Jiang Yining was standing a little distance away from the fire; she was still a bit afraid of fire.
She held a cup in her hand, filled with honeysuckle dew that she had dried and brewed herself. Jiang Yining, who was originally smiling and talking to Li Su'er, saw Yun Shi and smiled at him.
When Yun saw that pure smile, he finally realized what a huge mistake he had made recently. He had actually defined a girl based on his own imagination, and she was such a wonderful girl who made his heart flutter.
He was truly ashamed at that moment.
