"Cousin, I have something even tougher to say." The girl smirked and finally fired off the three deadly questions, "Did you pass your makeup exams this year? Did you finish your holiday homework? Will you pass your entrance exams?"
Ling Ze: "Um, I suddenly remembered I have something to do, so I'll be going now..."
"Where are you going?" Ling Wei smiled, her hand already grabbing her son by the collar. "Ling Ze, you still haven't passed your makeup exam? Do you want to die or wish you were dead? I'll grant your wish today!"
Although Ling Ze had complained about his mother's violence, Lian Han's lips still twitched when he saw his aunt lifting his son like a chick.
"I passed, I passed the makeup exam," Ling Ze hurriedly defended himself.
Lian Han added for him, "They passed, one with 61 points and the other with 60."
Ling Ze: "...Lian Han, this is too much! We're in the same major, aren't you afraid I'll check your grades?"
"Basic parts class 100, weapon assembly 95, academic class 100. This is from the last monthly exam. Cousin is welcome to check it out."
"Ling-Ze-!"
The more you compare, the more hurtful it becomes.
While Lian Han was answering, Ling Xin had already pulled her sister away and then they all watched the violence unfold.
Ten minutes later, just as his cousin was about to die from his injuries, Lian Han produced a healing card.
Ling Ze, whose injuries had healed instantly, felt pain all over his body. Couldn't he just die sooner and be reborn? Meanwhile, the girl looked at the card in her hand with considerable satisfaction. "Brother Amber's healing card is amazing! He's back to full health."
Ling Ze: ...He will never offend his sister again, never expose her again, and never mention his grades to her again. He will obey his sister's every command!
Ling Wei finally stopped, "Don't go out during the holidays until you finish your homework. Also, if I hear the word 'failing' again on the assessments when school starts..."
"I guarantee I'll complete the mission!" Ling Ze immediately assured him. His past bloody experience told him that if he hesitated even slightly at this moment, he would be facing another women's singles match against him.
"Supervisor Xiaohan."
"good."
Ling Ze was on the verge of tears. His mother was usually busy with work and wouldn't even think about his grades for half a year. As long as he passed the make-up exams, the school wouldn't contact his parents. But now—his sister was staying at the military academy, clearly just to keep an eye on him!
How will we live from now on?
"If you don't like people following you, then find a strange beast," Marshal Ling said, bringing the conversation back to the main topic.
"That's a good idea. That way your little fox will have a companion."
This time, it was Lian Han's turn to feel helpless. Could she say that Xiao Yan already had a companion, but that the companion was recovering from an injury? She already had three companions, which was more than enough. If she were given another one, they could form a team to compete in the arena.
Ling Wei asked, "By the way, is Fox still there? I saw she got caught up in it too?" If she's not there, it'll be good to get a replacement.
"Yes. But I didn't see her when I woke up. Apparently, she was kidnapped by Uncle Ning with a piece of his energy core."
"Uncle?" Ling Wei's focus was clearly the same as that of Deputy Officer Yu.
Lian Han blinked. "What's wrong with this form of address? The general told me to use it."
"It's alright, it's alright." Ling Wei smiled, relieved. The child was absolutely safe in the Northern Territory.
"Then it's settled. Aunt, please take care of the exotic pet."
"No problem. I know you're all busy," Ling Wei assured her. "I'll make sure Xiao Han gets bored with the old and forgets that fickle fox!"
Lust? The image of a handsome general flashed through Lian Han's mind; that description wasn't wrong, but unfortunately, his voice was unpleasant. This realization immediately made her put the other person out of her mind again.
"Alright, Xiaohan's fine, let's head back," Ling Xin said. "Make sure to log on to SkyNet on New Year's Day."
"knew."
After Lian Han finished speaking, he nodded to Ling Yue. His gaze had just fallen on Ling Ze when she saw him hurriedly slip away. He was so fast she couldn't even call him back.
Lian Han: ...
[This child probably has psychological trauma.] Old Xing gloated.
"Xiao Han, take care." Ling Wei smiled and left.
The vast space was suddenly empty except for Lian Han and Ling Xuanyu. "Father, then I'll..."
"Come and sit down."
As Ling Xuanyu finished speaking, a sofa and coffee table appeared beside him.
Lian Han blinked, somewhat puzzled by this operation.
“This is my birthplace. As my merits increased, my original birthplace gradually expanded,” Ling Xuanyu explained.
"It's beautiful." Lian Han sat down next to him. Actually, she would have preferred to sit opposite him, but there was only one sofa available.
"You can come often if you like; those stars are more than just decorations."
"Not just decorations?" Lian Han looked up in confusion, but was quickly drawn in by the other person's words, "When you went missing, Xiao Wei asked the matriarch of the Lance family to look for you. It was from her that she learned that General Ning had found you."
How did she do that?
"If you want to know, you'll have to ask her. Her name is Shen Sihan. You may have heard of her, or you may not. Shen Sihan is your mother's younger sister, a woman of exceptional talent. Although your mother and Shen Sihan are not blood sisters, their relationship is closer than that of blood sisters. They even made a pact to become each other's mecha pilot partners in the future."
"We met during an intramural competition in Dilo. The four of us were grouped together. Your mother and I were both in the mecha department, Shen Sihan was in the armor-making department, and Roy Lance, the head of the Lance family, was in the card-making department."
"Your mother fell in love with that Lance family head. She was an arrogant person, with outstanding looks and talent. She had countless suitors at school, but she ran into a wall with Roy Lance."
"She pursued Roy Lance for three months, but he didn't reciprocate her feelings. Then one day, someone saw Roy Lance and Shen Sihan together; they were dating. Your mother, having swallowed her pride and chased after him for three months, ended up with his sister. Being such a proud person, she naturally went to ask immediately. I don't know the details, only that your mother challenged Shen Sihan to a mecha battle, but she lost. Your mother left Diluo, this place of heartbreak, and the next time I saw her was in the military."
"Patriarch Lance, are they truly a couple who have finally gotten together?"
"yes."
"What about Mother and Father?"
The man's eyes held a nostalgic look; "familiarity breeds fondness."
Then there's nothing to worry about. Everyone has the right to pursue happiness. Lian Han thought this, but knowing it wasn't appropriate to comment on her elders, she asked, "Why did Father tell me this?"
"Madam Shen has put in a lot of effort this time, so you should visit her when you get back. Even if I don't tell you, she will tell you when you go to the Lance family."
"I see." Lian Han nodded, then couldn't help but ask, "Why did Mother leave later? Where did she go?"
As soon as Lian Han finished asking the question, he noticed that Ling Xuanyu's aura had become extremely terrifying, gloomy, and even murderous.
The oppressive aura of 3S was laid bare before her, almost comparable to the outburst from Bei Ting. The girl bit her lip and endured it.
Fortunately, Ling Xuanyu quickly composed himself. "Did I hurt you?"
"It's okay, I'll just log off and come back."
The man said in a deep voice, "Ya'er did not do it willingly."
