"Xiao Han!" Liz suddenly threw herself into Lian Han's arms. "You have to keep your promise to me."
"Of course." Lian Han withdrew his gaze and smiled.
"Giving Liz to someone else? You're asking for trouble, aren't you?" Ning Jue raised an eyebrow at the girl. They were less than ten meters away from the King Insect; this girl really didn't know her place.
But she didn't know that a king insect would appear. Lian Han thought to herself, but still said, "Lian Han thanks Uncle Ning for saving my life."
"You've been on leave for a month and you've spent it all with Mrs. Shen?"
"Yes. Aunt Shen is teaching me how to make armor," Lian Han replied.
Ning Jue looked at her meaningfully, "Then you'd better study hard."
"Where's Aunt Chen? I haven't seen her at all."
“There were people on the other half of the wreckage, and she went to retrieve them.”
Lian Han felt guilty; it seemed she had forgotten about Chen Ningye.
"Wait for Madam Shen to return before continuing our journey."
"yes."
[Xiao Han, you really should travel on starships less often in the future.]
[Why? ]
"Think about it yourself," Old Man Xing said. "The first time you traveled to the Imperial Capital by starship, it turned into cosmic dust; the second time you returned from the Northern Territory to the Imperial Capital, even though you were on a warship, you were surrounded and threatened by the heavens; the third time, which is this time, the starship split into two sections. Are you sure you want to travel by starship again?"
Thinking about it that way, it does seem to make sense. But it's probably just a coincidence. Lian Han thought to himself, somewhat uncertainly.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Um, thinking back on my recent trips on starships..." Lian Han glanced at Ning Jue, feeling a pang of regret. Uncle Ning was certainly handsome, but his voice...
Ning Jue raised an eyebrow, not quite understanding what she meant. The adjutant explained, "Miss Lian Han first encountered Major Jiang and his warship on a starship, then she met Zhu Tian the second time, and then this time..."
Jiang Chenxi's mission was authorized by him, so Ning Jue smiled and said, "It was just a coincidence."
“I also think I shouldn’t be that unlucky,” Lian Han nodded.
At this moment, Liz exclaimed, picked up Xingye from Lian Han's arms, and her eyes flashed with a fierce light, "You actually dared to bite me? You're tired of living."
Xingye met her gaze, showing no fear of Lizhi's murderous intent. "So what if I bite you? You've been clinging to your sister all this time, believe me, I'll swallow you whole!"
Lian Han, who sensed his thoughts through the contract, rubbed his forehead.
As a card, Liz, who also understood his meaning, sneered, "Short legs, you think you can eat me? I'll take you somewhere!"
"Liz, please don't..."
Before Lian Han could finish speaking, Liz lightly touched the ground with her toes and had already carried the little guy out of the starship command room.
"This must be the third one I've seen. Are you thinking of opening a pet shop?" Ning Jue's gaze was complicated.
"I think it's great, it's more lively with more people," Lian Han said.
"What does Liz want to do?" Lian Han asked Old Man Xing with some concern.
[How would I know? But with Xingye's almost freakish talent attributes, he definitely won't suffer a loss.]
"Xiao Han." It was Shen Sihan and Chen Ningye who had returned.
Seeing that the little girl was alright, Shen Sihan finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you for your help, General."
"It was nothing. However, things haven't been peaceful in the Federation lately, so it would be best if you, Madam, carried extra protection when you go out."
That's true.
Ning Jue wasn't surprised that Shen Sihan was always indifferent to people. "Yu Hui, take the guests to rest."
Yu Hui was the adjutant.
Lian Han hesitated for a moment, then said, "You guys go first. I'll wait for Liz."
Chen Sihan frowned. "I'll wait with you. Where did Liz go?"
Ning Jue said, "It's alright for Madam to go and rest first. I know this girl quite well, and I won't bully her."
"That's right. Aunt Chen, you must be tired too, go and rest first."
Shen Sihan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, "The general is very busy, don't bother him for too long."
"knew."
Watching them leave, Ning Jue looked at Lian Han and asked, "Madam Shen has lived a secluded life for many years. How did you end up with her? Do your family know?"
"It was a coincidence. The Ling family should know about it." After all, it was Shen Sihan who helped her ask for leave before.
"Should be? It's been a long time since we've been in contact with the Ling family?"
Seeing that Lian Han did not answer, Ning Jue continued to ask, "Then do you know that the Ling family is in trouble?"
"What trouble?" Lian Han's heart skipped a beat.
"Go ask him yourself."
"..." Lian Han looked at Ning Jue and gritted his teeth, "Doesn't the general think it's idiotic to only say half of what he means?"
"You change how you address someone when you're angry?" Ning Jue raised an eyebrow at her. This girl was really bold sometimes; even her father wouldn't dare to say that to him.
"I……"
"Xiao Han, it's all done." Liz returned at this moment.
Seeing that only she had returned, Lian Han frowned, "What did you manage to do?"
“That jerk! Throw him out.” Liz said, extending her bloodied wrist. “He bit me again. Who gave him the guts to bite me?”
Lian Han looked at her almost broken wrist and frowned. "How is your injury? Does it need treatment?"
"No need. It will heal quickly." Liz waved her hand, no longer suppressing the wound's healing; the scar immediately began to heal at a visible speed.
It's conceivable that if she hadn't complained to Lian Han, everything would probably be fine by now.
"What about Xiao Ye? Did you throw him outside the starship?"
“Let him roam around outside for a while, teach him a lesson.” Liz said matter-of-factly, “I just provoked him, and he dared to bite me.”
"He didn't do it on purpose. Can't you both compromise and get along harmoniously?" Lian Han said helplessly.
