Chapter 81 Chapter 81
After finishing the call, Rong Heng came out of the bedroom. As soon as he opened the door, he saw a few cubs stealthily clinging to the door.
When they saw him coming out, they ran away in panic.
"Come back." Rong Heng frowned, took two steps forward and picked up the slow-running Ruan Jiao, then looked at the other kids: "What are you trying to do?"
Ruan Jiao slapped his hand that was holding his collar.
The little dragon moved back slowly and looked at him carefully: "Are you feeling better now?"
"Why am I in a bad mood?" Rong Heng raised his eyebrows, looking puzzled.
Of course it's because your father doesn't want you anymore.
But he couldn't say it so directly. The little dragon boy hesitated and said, "You said you're not unhappy, then I'm not unhappy." He began to change the subject awkwardly: "Will you sleep with us tonight?"
Since Brother Rong didn't want anyone to know that he was unhappy, they should just pretend not to notice.
But you can comfort him!
"No." Rong Heng frowned and said in disgust: "You are so old and still need someone to sleep with you."
????? ?????
The little dragon cub's eyes widened in anger as his kindness was taken as an insult.
Finally, the little fox and the little mermaid dragged him away one by one. When Ruan Jiao saw the three cubs running away, he finally broke away from Rong Heng's hand, turned around and glared at him, and hurriedly chased after them.
Looking at the cubs' happy backs, Rong Heng chuckled and felt his heavy mood become lightened.
Five days passed in a blink of an eye. From the news, we learned that Sijin had entered a state of preparation for war, and the Sijialan star had obviously realized that Si Yan was deliberately taking advantage of the situation. In addition, the incident on the Lenka star had indeed aroused public anger. Exhausted from dealing with the situation on all sides, they finally could no longer care about the Balem and B3024 stars.
Rong Heng arranged for Hector and Mori to stay on Balem with their men, while he and Melaire took the cubs back to B3024.
They have been away for more than half a month, and now they can finally go home. The cubs are very excited.
Rong Heng stood by the porthole and looked at the stars.
According to the original plan, he should have transformed into Snowball at this time and returned with the cubs legitimately.
But for some reason, this time he suddenly wanted to see Ruan Shiqing.
Not as Snowball, but as Rong Heng.
So even though he knew that Snowball's long absence might arouse suspicion, he still made this somewhat willful decision in the end.
The kids ran past him with a thump, and after a short while, they ran back with a thump.
After searching every possible place in the upper cabin, the cubs couldn't find Snowball, so they had to run to find Rong Heng. When they set out from B3024, Rong Heng told them that Snowball was injured and was recuperating in the treatment cabin, and when they returned to B3024, he would be able to come out of the treatment cabin and go home with them.
So as soon as they got on board the battleship, the cubs couldn't wait to find Snowball.
Only the little mermaid, who had known for a long time that Snowball and Brother Rong were the same person, tried hard to act in order to appear sociable, and followed the cubs in the search.
Facing the puzzled looks of the kids, Rong Heng frowned and said perfunctorily: "His injury has healed ahead of schedule, and he has already gone for training."
The cubs immediately showed disappointed expressions.
The little fox and the little dragon wanted to say something, but the little mermaid pulled them away and said, "Maybe Snowball will come back in a few days. Mr. Meryl's fighting class will start soon."
As soon as they heard about the class, the kids immediately stopped talking and followed the little mermaid to the training room.
Only Ruan Jiao followed beside them with a frown on his face, puzzled by what they were saying.
The snowball is right here, why are you still looking for it?
The main battleship sailed for two days before reaching the B3024 star.
Ruan Shiqing received the news early and waited at the tarmac immediately.
Half a month later, the Zerg on B3024 had been basically cleared out, and there was no longer a steady influx of Zerg. However, the corpses of the Zerg were still piled up everywhere. According to Ruan Shiqing's request, the residents transported the Zerg corpses to designated locations for unified treatment.
Although we encountered difficulties, after getting through them, everything started to get better.
The cyan battleship landed on the helipad.
The elevator ramp was slowly lowered and the cubs rushed down eagerly.
The little dragon and the little fox rushed into their father's arms and rolled around; Ruan Jiao, who came out a step behind, hugged his father's legs tightly, his tentacles waving happily; the little mermaid sitting in the stroller was the last one to come out. He stood in front of Ruan Shiqing with bright eyes, looking even calmer.
"Welcome home." Ruan Shiqing rubbed the cubs one by one, and looked at Rong Heng with a puzzled look: "Why didn't Snowball come down? Is his injury not healed yet?"
Rong Heng pursed his lips, feeling a little dissatisfied.
But he didn't say anything, just hummed softly.
Ruan Shiqing was slightly disappointed, but he did not show it. After all, Xueqiu was Mr. Rong's younger brother, and he had known him for so long that he did not doubt Mr. Rong's character. He was also afraid that asking too many questions might cause trouble to the other party.
So he considerately changed the subject: "Today, my family has prepared a meal to welcome everyone."
So the group got on the landspeeder and returned to the repair shop.
The repair shop was not seriously damaged because of its protection system. Everything remains the same, and the Fallen Star vines, which are carefully cared for by the small robots, are flourishing.
Dares had already arrived at the repair shop and was squatting aside watching the Bear brothers repair the racing car, chattering with questions.
It was not until he saw the landspeeder at the door that he finally shut up, stood up and greeted a few people.
Hearing the noise, the little robot rushed out from the backyard and cried out in surprise. It looked at the cubs one by one, picked them up and weighed them, and said with a distressed look on its face, "They have lost weight."
He waved his arms and quickly cheered up: "But it doesn't matter, my husband and I prepared a lot of food today, I'm sure we can feed you all fat!"
Mele's nose twitched, and she smelled the rich aroma of food. She looked at Ruan Shiqing in surprise, her eyes gradually brightening: "Master Ruan can actually cook?"
Rong Heng, who was very familiar with her character, frowned slightly, subconsciously stood between her and Ruan Shiqing, and said in a stiff tone: "Let's go in first."
Mellor, whose sight was blocked by him, didn't care. He changed direction and looked at Ruan Shiqing with burning eyes: "It's too strange to call you Master Ruan. Can I call you Shiqing?"
Ruan Shiqing smiled and nodded: "Whatever you like."
Mellaire smiled brightly, walked beside him affectionately, and called him "Shi Qing" openly.
Rong Heng, who fell behind, had a slightly green face, and the look he gave Meller could almost burn two holes in her back.
Shi Qing.
He and Ruan Shiqing had known each other for such a long time, but they had never addressed each other like that.
Why did Mellor get there first?
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very unhappy.
There is also a subtle bit of jealousy.
He repeated the two words in his mouth, trying to imitate Merrel and address the other person in a familiar and natural way, but in the end he could only keep a stiff face and could not utter a word.
Ruan Shiqing was unaware of his entanglement and led the group to a restaurant for dinner.
The long marble dining table with gray and white patterns was filled with fragrant meals that had just been cooked.
The kids immediately sat on their own little chairs and looked at the dishes with shining eyes, but they were very polite and did not start eating right away, but waited for the guests to take their seats first.
Ruan Shiqing asked everyone else to take a seat.
Dares and the Xiong brothers sat together, and Mellaire sat next to Dares. Ruan Shiqing was about to lead Rong Heng to sit next to her, but Mellaire said, "Shiqing, sit next to me, and let Mr. Rong sit in the main seat. This way we can chat."
Ruan Shiqing was originally going to sit next to the cub, but when Melaire spoke, he did not insist and just sat down.
Rong Heng sat alone in the main seat, staring at Mellor with a cold gaze.
Mellor was oblivious to this and she enthusiastically started the conversation with Ruan Shiqing.
Although she is always decisive when facing enemies, she is a very talkative and enthusiastic person in her daily life. Her straightforward and generous personality, coupled with her bright and beautiful appearance, makes it easy for her to win the favor of others.
Therefore, Colonel Meleer is a well-known sea king in the Yengeis region.
Her ex-boyfriends could fill a battleship, and even after breaking up, they still praised her and couldn't forget her.
And now, she was obviously interested in Ruan Shiqing.
When she approaches someone with her heart, it is usually difficult for the other person to refuse her approach. Ruan Shiqing chatted with her very happily, and when he answered her with his face tilted to the side, his eyes and eyebrows were smiling, and he was obviously very happy.
The happier he was, the more uncomfortable Rong Heng felt.
The other party had never been so relaxed and happy with him before; when they talked, it was always polite and unfamiliar, even though they could be considered friends now.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince felt as if he had a handful of foxtail grass in his chest. The furry grass tickled his heart. It didn't hurt, but it wasn't itchy either. However, it made him feel uneasy and his whole body was tingling.
Then the look in his eyes towards Mellaire became increasingly cold.
After finally waiting until the welcoming banquet was over, Melaire was ready to exchange messages with Ruan Shiqing. This time, Rong Heng finally couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up abruptly and called Melaire out with a sullen face.
The pleasant dinner was interrupted, and Mellaire looked at the Crown Prince in confusion, who was furious and looked as if he had eaten explosives.
"I didn't offend you tonight, did I?"
If I remember correctly, she didn't even say a word to him.
Rong Heng pursed his lips and lowered his voice, "You shouldn't have set your sights on Ruan Shiqing."
"Why? I've just asked, Master Ruan is still single." Mellor did not hide her intentions. For people she likes, she always holds the attitude of pursuing them if she likes them.
Ruan Shiqing is capable, has a good personality, and looks just what she likes. The most irresistible thing is that he can even cook!
Mellor was instantly attracted.
This excitement even made her ignore the nearly 20-centimeter height difference between them.
Her attitude was so frank and natural that Rong Heng was speechless for a moment.
Why? Of course, because I don't allow it.
But why he didn't allow it, he couldn't tell.
So the Crown Prince was silent for a long time, and finally he could only find a reason that was not really an excuse: "He is not yet an adult."
