Chapter 44: Forty-four Nights
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has reached the age required, and the selection of a Crown Princess has also been put on the agenda. There is absolutely no way Yun Wanwan will appear on that list.
The examination result was too heavy. Yun Zhongqing looked at Yun Wanwan, who was smiling lightly and not at all surprised, and seemed to let him handle it. Suddenly, he didn't dare to make a decision on his own.
Finally, the test results appeared in the Yun family's study. The three generations of the Yun family looked at the test results with conflicted expressions.
Yun Zhongqing meant that since Yun Wanwan was back and would have to go back to school in the future, the changes in her physical condition and mental strength would definitely be impossible to hide, so it would be better for them to announce the truth in advance. Some things would be different if they were said in advance than if they were forced to be exposed later.
Yun Rong's intention was to suppress the situation for a bit, at least to prepare a follow-up strategy. Yun Wanwan had just returned, and the Crown Prince's presence had drawn considerable attention to her. The thought of the Crown Prince personally handing Yun Wanwan a chip made Yun Rong's head ache. He thought they could wait a bit, perhaps find something else to distract everyone. Or, perhaps the Yun family could find an excuse to claim Yun Wanwan had finally awakened her talent thanks to the potion, making it less abrupt.
Neither the father nor the son could convince the other, so they waited for Mr. Yun to make the decision.
"Grandpa, wait a moment. Let's find a better opportunity to let everyone know that Wanwan's talent breakthrough is very safe and reasonable. However, we don't know how much injustice Wanwan has suffered in a corner unknown to us these days. Moreover, this matter of talent has always been a knot in Wanwan's heart, so there is no need for us to hide it. As the daughter of the Yun family, there is no need to be afraid of praising her even more."
Yun Zhongqing's words were full of vigor, and Yun Rong looked at him slightly sideways. Back then, Old Master Yun had passed on the position of Patriarch to Yun Zhongqing, probably because he was impressed by Yun Zhongqing's youthful vigor.
This youthful vigor is sometimes a bad thing and sometimes a good thing.
The Yun family had been standing for so many years, and it was beginning to show signs of fatigue. It was good to have a young man like Yun Zhongqing lead the family. Moreover, in the eyes of outsiders, Yun Zhongqing's youthful vigor was also a good protective color.
Behind Yun Zhongqing, there is Yun Rong and Old Man Yun!
Hearing Yun Zhongqing's words, Old Man Yun nodded. Although Yun Rong still disagreed, his affection for Yun Wanwan made him feel that she was still a child. It was his instinct to care for, protect, and love his daughter. But he also knew that children would one day leave the nest and fly into the sky, just like Yun Zhongqing before him, eventually growing into a qualified and outstanding head of the family.
Yun Rong nodded.
So the next day, this report was submitted directly to the Central College, where Yun Wanwan was studying. With this report, Yun Wanwan's course arrangements would change.
The specific changes weren't important; what mattered was that, from the moment this data was entered, Yun Wanwan's physical and mental changes were no longer a secret. Of course, not everyone paid attention to Yun Wanwan's changes; Yun Zhongqing provided direct guidance. Yun Wanwan's return caused a stir at Central Academy. Her former self had been no low-key person, with her ongoing turmoil with Chu Wenxiao, and her previous disappearance had caused widespread uproar. Her return had stirred up even the most hidden corners of the Central Academy forum.
As long as Yun Zhongqing arranges someone to post Yun Wanwan's latest aptitude and talent examination report, this topic will naturally come up.
Watching the people in the forum using lame disguises to attack the authenticity of this report in all aspects, after all, before this, Yun Wanwan was indeed a waste without any talent and with a physique as weak as that of an ordinary person. Over the years, the Yun family, as a top family, had so many resources piled on her, but they could not help her get rid of her waste identity.
Who would believe it now that Yun Wanwan suddenly awakened her talent from a waste?
"This must be a stunt created by the Yun family! Miss Yun's return this time is a big deal, the entire internet is welcoming her!"
"What the hell is the point of welcoming us? Don't take us with you!"
"Oh my, this is quite impressive indeed. The head of the Yun family went to pick it up personally, and the starship used a dedicated channel to travel all the way."
"Also, and also, the invitations to the dinner party have been delivered to everyone."
"The most important thing is! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! He actually came to the banquet in person!"
"What? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince appeared?"
"Lou Shang Village Netcom?"
"Yes, His Royal Highness not only appeared at the banquet in person, but also personally presented a gift to that person!"
"What!!?"
"Who actually received a gift personally sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? What gift?"
"What's wrong with the Yun family? They're so arrogant that they actually sent an invitation to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for a small banquet?"
"The point! The point is! Even if the Yun family had the nerve to send an invitation to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the point is that His Royal Highness not only went! He even personally presented a gift!"
"hiss!"
"The Yun family is going to heaven!"
“…”
Yun Zhongqing was also helpless about this line of discussion. He originally wanted to make everyone aware of Yun Wanwan's changes. Talent awakening can be a big deal or a small matter, but he was led astray by someone who inadvertently broke in, and the topic centered around His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and never returned.
Fortunately, the topic was quickly brought back under control.
"It's not impossible to say it's a gimmick. This medical report is clearly issued by the Yun family's private hospital."
"That's hard to say. The Yun family's private hospital is quite prestigious, right? Does this mean the Yun family's report is fake?"
"It definitely can't be fake. Even if the Yun family doesn't care about their reputation, the fact that Central Academy can take over this information proves its authenticity, right?"
"...Central Academy can't afford to lose face..."
"How many denials are there above?"
"Didn't you notice that there's a number on this report?"
"What number? Isn't that the certification number of the Yun family's private hospital?"
"No, go and search..."
Someone searched for it immediately, and then there was silence.
Even Yun Zhongqing himself didn't notice this problem until it was pointed out by powerful netizens. He personally delivered the report and hadn't expected any problems to arise.
At the very bottom of the report, inconspicuously, there was an extra number that wasn't originally on the report. The number for the Yun family's private hospital was prominently displayed at the top. Yun Zhongqing had also checked this number and discovered it belonged to the Imperial Research Institute.
Yun Zhongqing: “…”
Everyone in the Fiklan Empire knew that the Imperial Research Institute was now under the name of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and that he was fully responsible. The fact that the Imperial Research Institute's number appeared in this place was difficult to explain without His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's authorization.
His Royal Highness seemed to have done so much for Yun Wanwan. Yun Zhongqing found it hard to understand, but also unsurprising. After all, just before this, His Royal Highness had personally visited and delivered a valuable gift. While growth-capable AIs weren't rare, even the Fiklan Empire couldn't produce many capable of reaching the level of Kaia, the one by His Royal Highness's side. At least, Kaia was the only one publicly known.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince generously gave one to Yun Wanwan.
The petty-minded eldest brother of the Yun family couldn't help but think that the Crown Prince was coming with such a strong attitude that it was obvious that he was interested in his younger sister. Although Yun Zhongqing thought that his younger sister was very good and that no wild boy outside could match her, when it came to the Crown Prince, Yun Zhongqing had to admit that this was a young man so outstanding that everyone could not help but be impressed.
With my own sister...
It’s not impossible.
Judging from the person Shi Kane is, he is indeed a good choice.
But Shi Kaien wasn't just Shi Kaien; he was also the Crown Prince of the Fiklan Empire, the undisputed next Emperor. While such a prestigious position was certainly one the Yun family couldn't possibly consider letting Yun Wanwan shoulder the responsibilities and dangers that came with it.
We have to find an opportunity to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know what the Yun family means.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has reached the age required, and the selection of a Crown Princess has also been put on the agenda. There is absolutely no way Yun Wanwan will appear on that list.
Seeing that the online discussion had reached his expectations, Yun Zhongqing stopped paying attention to it. He assigned someone to follow up on such matters as he had more important things to take care of.
For example, have a good chat with Yun Wanwan.
"What's wrong?"
Yun Wanwan was a bit surprised by Yun Zhongqing's sudden appearance. She had seen how busy this cheap brother was, dealing with so many things every day. He had spent most of the time on the way to pick her up in meetings, and many things still needed to be handled in person. The time he spent picking her up was like a vacation for him, and the work that would pile up afterwards would require him to work twice as hard.
Yun Wanwan: So what’s the good of being in power? It’s so tiring.
Look at Yun Zhongqing, then look at Shi Kane, no interstellar pirate has ever lived comfortably.
Wu Yan, who was strolling far away on the Dark Star: A-choo!
"Brother, if you have anything to say, just speak up. I will tell you everything I know."
"Hmm..." My little sister's tone of voice had become subtly distant since she was out this time. "You and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
"Your Highness? It's just a normal relationship between a therapist and a patient, big brother." Yun Wanwan held up the communication interface of her intelligent brain, which happened to be the part where she was chatting with His Highness, and arranged the time for the next follow-up visit. "I am really treating Your Highness, this is definitely not a smokescreen."
It's just that no one will believe it if I say it, or no one will dare to believe it.
Yun Zhongqing looked at Yun Wanwan with a serious look. In fact, he didn't believe it either. But looking at the clear eyes of Yun Wanwan and the gentle smile on her face, he wondered, why shouldn't he believe it?
Yun Zhongqing's topic changed instantly. "Is His Royal Highness's injury serious? If you can't tell me, forget it. I just want to know: is your treatment of His Royal Highness safe? Are you safe yourself?"
Everyone knows that if the patient's mental power level is much higher than that of the therapist, not only will there be no treatment effect, but the gap in mental power damage will even devour the therapist's mental power and cause damage to the therapist.
After accepting the fact that his sister was really treating His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Yun Zhongqing was only worried that since his sister only had D-level mental power and was a novice who had just awakened her talent as a healer, she would be in danger many times while treating His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
In Yun Zhongqing's opinion, whether or not the Crown Prince can be cured is not important, and how serious the Crown Prince's injuries are is none of his business. He is only worried about Yun Wanwan's safety.
Yun Wanwan could also understand Yun Zhongqing's focus and considered her words. "Hmm, can I still handle it?"
With her current level of cultivation, it is indeed impossible to heal Kane's injuries, but it is no problem to prevent the injuries from worsening.
Yun Zhongqing reached out and smoothed Yun Wanwan's bangs, which she had just fixed, and said earnestly, "No matter what happens, I and my family hope that you can put your own safety first, understand?"
Yun Wanwan, who had finally fixed her bangs, was messed up by Yun Zhongqing:???
It’s better not to have this cheap brother!
