Chapter‌ ‌25:‌ ‌Then‌ ‌let‌ ‌me‌ ‌go‌ ‌into‌ ‌your‌ ‌dreams‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌was‌ ‌ignoring‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun.‌ ‌

 ‌

Even‌ ‌when‌ ‌it‌ ‌was‌ ‌time‌ ‌to‌ ‌sleep,‌ ‌he‌ ‌refused‌ ‌to‌ ‌sleep‌ ‌with‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌

XiaoYun.‌ ‌Not‌ ‌only‌ ‌this,‌ ‌he‌ ‌didn't‌ ‌even‌ ‌let‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌enter‌ ‌the‌ ‌

room.‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌lock‌ ‌on‌ ‌the‌ ‌door‌ ‌clearly‌ ‌indicated‌ ‌it‌ ‌was‌ ‌open,‌ ‌but‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌

XiaoYun‌ ‌just‌ ‌couldn't‌ ‌enter.‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌pressed‌ ‌against‌ ‌the‌ ‌video‌ ‌screen‌ ‌and‌ ‌said‌ ‌with‌ ‌a‌ ‌

lowered‌ ‌voice:‌ ‌"Zhou‌ ‌Zhou,‌ ‌don't‌ ‌be‌ ‌angry,‌ ‌please‌ ‌let‌ ‌me‌ ‌in?"‌ ‌

 ‌

Inside‌ ‌the‌ ‌room,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌hugged‌ ‌his‌ ‌Divine‌ ‌Image‌ ‌and‌ ‌sat‌ ‌

on‌ ‌the‌ ‌bed,‌ ‌completely‌ ‌turning‌ ‌a‌ ‌deaf‌ ‌ear‌ ‌to‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun.‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌had‌ ‌placed‌ ‌a‌ ‌divine‌ ‌barrier‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌room.‌ ‌As‌ ‌long‌ ‌as‌ ‌he‌ ‌didn't‌ ‌

remove‌ ‌the‌ ‌barrier,‌ ‌people‌ ‌outside‌ ‌couldn't‌ ‌enter.‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌was‌ ‌really‌ ‌very‌ ‌angry‌ ‌right‌ ‌now!‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌was‌ ‌really‌ ‌too‌ ‌much!‌ ‌Lying‌ ‌to‌ ‌him‌ ‌all‌ ‌this‌ ‌time!‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌clearly‌ ‌knew‌ ‌everything,‌ ‌and‌ ‌even‌ ‌probably‌ ‌knew‌ ‌that‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌

Zhou‌ ‌had‌ ‌the‌ ‌ability‌ ‌to‌ ‌enter‌ ‌other‌ ‌people's‌ ‌dreams!‌ ‌

 ‌

But‌ ‌he‌ ‌had‌ ‌been‌ ‌deceiving‌ ‌him‌ ‌all‌ ‌this‌ ‌time!‌ ‌

 ‌

Hugging‌ ‌the‌ ‌Divine‌ ‌Image,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌sulked:‌ ‌"How‌ ‌could‌ ‌he‌ ‌

do‌ ‌this!"‌ ‌

 ‌

If‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌didn't‌ ‌deceive‌ ‌him,‌ ‌he‌ ‌would‌ ‌have‌ ‌figured‌ ‌out‌ ‌

that‌ ‌his‌ ‌dream‌ ‌granting‌ ‌ability‌ ‌had‌ ‌failed‌ ‌a‌ ‌long‌ ‌time‌ ‌ago!‌ ‌

 ‌

This‌ ‌was‌ ‌an‌ ‌important‌ ‌issue‌ ‌regarding‌ ‌his‌ ‌secret‌ ‌identity.‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌High‌ ‌God‌ ‌had‌ ‌said‌ ‌before,‌ ‌they‌ ‌can‌ ‌live‌ ‌with‌ ‌human‌ ‌

identities,‌ ‌but‌ ‌they‌ ‌couldn't‌ ‌allow‌ ‌humans‌ ‌to‌ ‌know‌ ‌who‌ ‌they‌ ‌

were.‌ ‌Otherwise,‌ ‌they'd‌ ‌get‌ ‌points‌ ‌taken‌ ‌off‌ ‌in‌ ‌their‌ ‌internship!‌ ‌

 ‌

"Zhou‌ ‌Zhou."‌ ‌

 ‌

In‌ ‌front‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌video‌ ‌screen,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌stared‌ ‌closely‌ ‌at‌ ‌the‌ ‌

camera‌ ‌lens,‌ ‌as‌ ‌if‌ ‌trying‌ ‌to‌ ‌see‌ ‌the‌ ‌person‌ ‌inside‌ ‌through‌ ‌it.‌ ‌

 ‌

"I‌ ‌didn't‌ ‌lie‌ ‌to‌ ‌you‌ ‌on‌ ‌purpose.‌ ‌Let‌ ‌me‌ ‌inside‌ ‌first.‌ ‌I'll‌ ‌explain‌ ‌

myself‌ ‌to‌ ‌you."‌ ‌

 ‌

Still‌ ‌saying‌ ‌it‌ ‌wasn't‌ ‌on‌ ‌purpose!‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌had‌ ‌asked‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌many‌ ‌times.‌ ‌

 ‌

But‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌said‌ ‌he‌ ‌didn't‌ ‌remember‌ ‌every‌ ‌time.‌ ‌

 ‌

Yet‌ ‌why‌ ‌would‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌and‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌remember‌ ‌the‌ ‌

content‌ ‌of‌ ‌their‌ ‌granted‌ ‌dreams?‌ ‌

 ‌

Logically‌ ‌speaking,‌ ‌normal‌ ‌people‌ ‌shouldn't‌ ‌know‌ ‌this.‌ ‌

 ‌

Humans‌ ‌knew‌ ‌very‌ ‌little‌ ‌about‌ ‌their‌ ‌subconscious,‌ ‌so‌ ‌how‌ ‌did‌ ‌

they‌ ‌know?‌ ‌

 ‌

How‌ ‌can‌ ‌he‌ ‌explain‌ ‌this,‌ ‌in‌ ‌a‌ ‌way‌ ‌that‌ ‌did‌ ‌not‌ ‌expose‌ ‌his‌ ‌

identity?‌ ‌

 ‌

Sinking‌ ‌into‌ ‌conflict,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌pulled‌ ‌over‌ ‌his‌ ‌personal‌ ‌

computer‌ ‌and‌ ‌did‌ ‌some‌ ‌research.‌ ‌

 ‌

After‌ ‌a‌ ‌while,‌ ‌he‌ ‌became‌ ‌enlightened.‌ ‌

 ‌

Around‌ ‌10‌ ‌years‌ ‌old,‌ ‌intergalactic‌ ‌people‌ ‌can‌ ‌be‌ ‌tested‌ ‌for‌ ‌

psychic‌ ‌powers‌ ‌and‌ ‌physical‌ ‌strength.‌ ‌These‌ ‌people‌ ‌were‌ ‌

different‌ ‌from‌ ‌normal‌ ‌people‌ ‌on‌ ‌earth.‌ ‌

 ‌

When‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌powers‌ ‌reach‌ ‌a‌ ‌certain‌ ‌level,‌ ‌it‌ ‌can‌ ‌even‌ ‌be‌ ‌used‌ ‌as‌ ‌

a‌ ‌weapon,‌ ‌capable‌ ‌of‌ ‌suppressing‌ ‌those‌ ‌with‌ ‌weaker‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌

strength.‌ ‌The‌ ‌stronger‌ ‌someone's‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌powers,‌ ‌naturally‌ ‌the‌ ‌

clearer‌ ‌their‌ ‌thoughts‌ ‌and‌ ‌subconscious.‌ ‌

 ‌

This‌ ‌was‌ ‌probably‌ ‌the‌ ‌reason‌ ‌for‌ ‌the‌ ‌failure‌ ‌of‌ ‌his‌ ‌dream‌ ‌granting‌ ‌

ability.‌ ‌Because‌ ‌both‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌and‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌had‌ ‌above‌ ‌

S‌ ‌level‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌powers.‌ ‌

 ‌

After‌ ‌discovering‌ ‌the‌ ‌truth,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌became‌ ‌even‌ ‌more‌ ‌

depressed.‌ ‌

 ‌

Didn't‌ ‌this‌ ‌indicate‌ ‌that‌ ‌on‌ ‌the‌ ‌first‌ ‌night‌ ‌of‌ ‌granting‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌

a‌ ‌dream,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌already‌ ‌knew?‌ ‌

 ‌

"Zhou‌ ‌Zhou...…"‌ ‌

 ‌

Outside‌ ‌the‌ ‌door,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun's‌ ‌voice‌ ‌gradually‌ ‌became‌ ‌

helpless.‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌youth‌ ‌was‌ ‌normally‌ ‌very‌ ‌easy‌ ‌to‌ ‌converse‌ ‌with.‌ ‌Even‌ ‌when‌ ‌

mad,‌ ‌he‌ ‌was‌ ‌very‌ ‌cute.‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌never‌ ‌thought‌ ‌that‌ ‌when‌ ‌the‌ ‌youth‌ ‌really‌ ‌became‌ ‌

angry,‌ ‌it‌ ‌would‌ ‌make‌ ‌him‌ ‌this‌ ‌worried‌ ‌as‌ ‌well.‌ ‌

 ‌

That's‌ ‌right.‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌really‌ ‌felt‌ ‌slightly‌ ‌worried.‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌appeared‌ ‌too‌ ‌strangely,‌ ‌carrying‌ ‌a‌ ‌certain‌ ‌special‌ ‌

power.‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌suspected‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌to‌ ‌be‌ ‌a‌ ‌race‌ ‌of‌ ‌some‌ ‌

other‌ ‌intergalactic‌ ‌civilization.‌ ‌

 ‌

Therefore‌ ‌he‌ ‌was‌ ‌really‌ ‌worried‌ ‌that‌ ‌after‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌became‌ ‌

angry,‌ ‌he'd‌ ‌leave‌ ‌without‌ ‌a‌ ‌sound,‌ ‌just‌ ‌like‌ ‌how‌ ‌he‌ ‌had‌ ‌

appeared.‌ ‌

 ‌

"Zhou‌ ‌Zhou,‌ ‌open‌ ‌the‌ ‌door.‌ ‌I‌ ‌promise‌ ‌I‌ ‌won't‌ ‌deceive‌ ‌you‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌

future‌ ‌ever‌ ‌again,‌ ‌okay?"‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌coaxed‌ ‌softly.‌ ‌

 ‌

But‌ ‌the‌ ‌door‌ ‌still‌ ‌remained‌ ‌unable‌ ‌to‌ ‌be‌ ‌opened.‌ ‌

 ‌

Thus,‌ ‌all‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌crew‌ ‌walking‌ ‌around‌ ‌on‌ ‌battleship‌ ‌Wyvern‌ ‌saw‌ ‌

this‌ ‌scene--‌ ‌The‌ ‌Admiral‌ ‌and‌ ‌his‌ ‌wife‌ ‌having‌ ‌a‌ ‌fight.‌ ‌The‌ ‌Admiral‌ ‌

was‌ ‌even‌ ‌chased‌ ‌out‌ ‌of‌ ‌their‌ ‌room‌ ‌by‌ ‌the‌ ‌madam!‌ ‌

 ‌

They‌ ‌have‌ ‌to‌ ‌say,‌ ‌the‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌was‌ ‌really‌ ‌very‌ ‌domineering!‌ ‌

 ‌

Who‌ ‌would‌ ‌dare‌ ‌to‌ ‌sweep‌ ‌the‌ ‌Admiral‌ ‌out‌ ‌the‌ ‌door‌ ‌like‌ ‌this?!‌ ‌

 ‌

Only‌ ‌their‌ ‌Madam!‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌Admiral‌ ‌was‌ ‌really‌ ‌pitiful...…‌ ‌

 ‌

Meanwhile,‌ ‌at‌ ‌this‌ ‌time,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌received‌ ‌a‌ ‌strange‌ ‌

retribution!‌ ‌

 ‌

"Aiyaya,‌ ‌who's‌ ‌this?‌ ‌Isn't‌ ‌this‌ ‌Dear‌ ‌Old‌ ‌Wen?"‌ ‌The‌ ‌passing‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌

JinXue‌ ‌said‌ ‌eccentrically.‌ ‌Looking‌ ‌like‌ ‌he‌ ‌was‌ ‌very‌ ‌worried‌ ‌about‌ ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun,‌ ‌he‌ ‌said:‌ ‌"Dear‌ ‌Old‌ ‌Wen,‌ ‌how‌ ‌come‌ ‌you're‌ ‌here?‌ ‌

It's‌ ‌already‌ ‌so‌ ‌late,‌ ‌still‌ ‌can't‌ ‌sleep?‌ ‌Is‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌not‌ ‌letting‌ ‌you‌ ‌

inside?‌ ‌Ai,‌ ‌isn't‌ ‌this‌ ‌too‌ ‌tragic."‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌gave‌ ‌him‌ ‌a‌ ‌cold‌ ‌look.‌ ‌

 ‌

This‌ ‌time,‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌didn't‌ ‌even‌ ‌know‌ ‌fear.‌ ‌

 ‌

Thanks‌ ‌to‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou,‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌finally‌ ‌knew‌ ‌why‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌

XiaoYun‌ ‌had‌ ‌targeted‌ ‌him.‌ ‌

 ‌

Just‌ ‌because‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌had‌ ‌said‌ ‌that‌ ‌he‌ ‌liked‌ ‌him‌ ‌best‌ ‌in‌ ‌front‌ ‌

of‌ ‌the‌ ‌Boss!‌ ‌The‌ ‌Boss‌ ‌drank‌ ‌vinegar‌ ‌and‌ ‌went‌ ‌to‌ ‌call‌ ‌his‌ ‌mom‌ ‌to‌ ‌

force‌ ‌him‌ ‌into‌ ‌marriage‌ ‌interviews!‌ ‌

 ‌

Calling‌ ‌his‌ ‌mom‌ ‌hah.‌ ‌Who‌ ‌didn't‌ ‌know‌ ‌how‌ ‌to‌ ‌call‌ ‌moms!‌ ‌

 ‌

Boss‌ ‌can‌ ‌do‌ ‌it,‌ ‌so‌ ‌can‌ ‌he!‌ ‌

 ‌

As‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌said‌ ‌worriedly:‌ ‌"Don't‌ ‌you‌ ‌have‌ ‌a‌ ‌lot‌ ‌of‌ ‌things‌ ‌to‌ ‌

do‌ ‌tomorrow?‌ ‌The‌ ‌first‌ ‌round‌ ‌of‌ ‌excavation‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌quarry‌ ‌is‌ ‌

already‌ ‌completed.‌ ‌Do‌ ‌we‌ ‌need‌ ‌to‌ ‌excavate‌ ‌10‌ ‌meters‌ ‌deeper‌ ‌

for‌ ‌the‌ ‌2nd‌ ‌round?‌ ‌If‌ ‌you‌ ‌don't‌ ‌rest‌ ‌now,‌ ‌won't‌ ‌you‌ ‌be‌ ‌very‌ ‌tired‌ ‌

tomorrow?‌ ‌How‌ ‌about‌ ‌I‌ ‌help‌ ‌you‌ ‌coax‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌Zhou?‌ ‌Ah?‌ ‌Forget‌ ‌it,‌ ‌

forget‌ ‌it.‌ ‌I‌ ‌also‌ ‌don't‌ ‌know‌ ‌how‌ ‌to‌ ‌coax‌ ‌people.‌ ‌How‌ ‌about‌ ‌I‌ ‌find‌ ‌

aunty‌ ‌to‌ ‌help‌ ‌you!"‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌placed‌ ‌a‌ ‌call‌ ‌to‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun's‌ ‌

mother.‌ ‌

 ‌

There's‌ ‌a‌ ‌time‌ ‌difference‌ ‌between‌ ‌the‌ ‌Capitol‌ ‌planet‌ ‌and‌ ‌the‌ ‌

garbage‌ ‌planet.‌ ‌At‌ ‌this‌ ‌time,‌ ‌it‌ ‌just‌ ‌happened‌ ‌to‌ ‌be‌ ‌noon‌ ‌on‌ ‌the‌ ‌

Capitol‌ ‌planet.‌ ‌

 ‌

When‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌answered‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue's‌ ‌call,‌ ‌she‌ ‌was‌ ‌

actually‌ ‌somewhat‌ ‌surprised:‌ ‌"Xiao-Cheng,‌ ‌you‌ ‌have‌ ‌time‌ ‌to‌ ‌

call‌ ‌me‌ ‌right‌ ‌now?"‌ ‌

 ‌

Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌immediately‌ ‌said‌ ‌with‌ ‌an‌ ‌anxious,‌ ‌miserable‌ ‌face:‌ ‌

"Aunty,‌ ‌I‌ ‌came‌ ‌to‌ ‌find‌ ‌you...….‌ ‌because‌ ‌I‌ ‌want‌ ‌you‌ ‌to‌ ‌come‌ ‌up‌ ‌

with‌ ‌a‌ ‌plan!"‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌"What‌ ‌plan?"‌ ‌

 ‌

Cheng‌ ‌JinXue:‌ ‌"Because‌ ‌of‌ ‌me,‌ ‌Boss‌ ‌and‌ ‌SaoZi‌ ‌had‌ ‌a‌ ‌fight.‌ ‌Boss‌ ‌

was‌ ‌chased‌ ‌out‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌room.‌ ‌SaoZi‌ ‌isn't‌ ‌even‌ ‌letting‌ ‌Boss‌ ‌enter‌ ‌

the‌ ‌room‌ ‌to‌ ‌sleep.‌ ‌I'm‌ ‌so‌ ‌worried,‌ ‌but‌ ‌the‌ ‌little‌ ‌pitiful‌ ‌me‌ ‌really‌ ‌

had‌ ‌no‌ ‌interest‌ ‌in‌ ‌SaoZi‌ ‌at‌ ‌all.‌ ‌Boss‌ ‌was‌ ‌the‌ ‌one‌ ‌who‌ ‌

misunderstood‌ ‌and‌ ‌now‌ ‌SaoZi‌ ‌is‌ ‌angry.‌ ‌Everyone‌ ‌here‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌3rd‌ ‌

legion‌ ‌are‌ ‌manly‌ ‌men.‌ ‌We‌ ‌have‌ ‌no‌ ‌idea‌ ‌how‌ ‌to‌ ‌make‌ ‌SaoZi‌ ‌

happy.‌ ‌Therefore,‌ ‌I‌ ‌can‌ ‌only‌ ‌call‌ ‌and‌ ‌ask‌ ‌you‌ ‌Aunty."‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌"...…"‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen's‌ ‌voice‌ ‌instantly‌ ‌raised‌ ‌in‌ ‌pitch:‌ ‌"What?!‌ ‌Saozi?!"‌ ‌

 ‌

Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌said‌ ‌in‌ ‌shock:‌ ‌"Ah?‌ ‌Yes‌ ‌Aunty,‌ ‌you‌ ‌don't‌ ‌know?‌ ‌

Boss‌ ‌has‌ ‌someone‌ ‌he‌ ‌likes."‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌"...…."‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌became‌ ‌excited:‌ ‌"I‌ ‌know‌ ‌now!‌ ‌Xiao-Cheng,‌ ‌tell‌ ‌me‌ ‌

quickly.‌ ‌Who‌ ‌does‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌like?‌ ‌What‌ ‌planet‌ ‌do‌ ‌they‌ ‌live‌ ‌on?‌ ‌

Who‌ ‌are‌ ‌their‌ ‌parents?‌ ‌How‌ ‌old‌ ‌is‌ ‌that‌ ‌child?‌ ‌Are‌ ‌there‌ ‌any‌ ‌

pictures?‌ ‌This‌ ‌bastard‌ ‌son‌ ‌of‌ ‌mine!‌ ‌Getting‌ ‌into‌ ‌such‌ ‌a‌ ‌big‌ ‌thing‌ ‌

two‌ ‌months‌ ‌ago.‌ ‌After‌ ‌you‌ ‌guys‌ ‌found‌ ‌him,‌ ‌he‌ ‌only‌ ‌sent‌ ‌a‌ ‌

message,‌ ‌reporting‌ ‌that‌ ‌he‌ ‌was‌ ‌safe‌ ‌and‌ ‌sound‌ ‌without‌ ‌saying‌ ‌

anything‌ ‌else!‌ ‌This‌ ‌was‌ ‌really‌ ‌hidden‌ ‌extremely‌ ‌tightly!"‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌couldn't‌ ‌help‌ ‌but‌ ‌say:‌ ‌"Mom!"‌ ‌

 ‌

Hearing‌ ‌that‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌was‌ ‌also‌ ‌present,‌ ‌she‌ ‌immediately‌ ‌

started‌ ‌wiping‌ ‌tears:‌ ‌"What‌ ‌is‌ ‌it?‌ ‌Can't‌ ‌I‌ ‌even‌ ‌ask?‌ ‌Tell‌ ‌me,‌ ‌do‌ ‌

you‌ ‌think‌ ‌my‌ ‌life‌ ‌is‌ ‌easy?‌ ‌Last‌ ‌time,‌ ‌something‌ ‌happened‌ ‌to‌ ‌you,‌ ‌

the‌ ‌entire‌ ‌universe‌ ‌said‌ ‌you‌ ‌were‌ ‌dead.‌ ‌Those‌ ‌people‌ ‌were‌ ‌all‌ ‌

laughing‌ ‌at‌ ‌me‌ ‌saying‌ ‌the‌ ‌Old‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌family‌ ‌has‌ ‌definitely‌ ‌ended.‌ ‌

They‌ ‌were‌ ‌even‌ ‌trying‌ ‌to‌ ‌convince‌ ‌me‌ ‌to‌ ‌remarry!‌ ‌Wuuwuu‌ ‌my‌ ‌

life‌ ‌is‌ ‌really‌ ‌too‌ ‌hard...…"‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌said‌ ‌expressionlessly:‌ ‌“Stop‌ ‌pretending.‌ ‌I‌ ‌saw‌ ‌you‌ ‌

wipe‌ ‌saliva‌ ‌over‌ ‌your‌ ‌eyes.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌“......”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌said:‌ ‌“I‌ ‌will‌ ‌tell‌ ‌you‌ ‌later”‌ ‌and‌ ‌then‌ ‌threatened‌ ‌

Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌to‌ ‌hang‌ ‌up‌ ‌the‌ ‌call.‌ ‌

 ‌

Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌got‌ ‌his‌ ‌revenge.‌ ‌Afraid‌ ‌that‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌would‌ ‌

come‌ ‌back‌ ‌and‌ ‌deal‌ ‌with‌ ‌him,‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌ran‌ ‌away‌ ‌while‌ ‌

yelling:‌ ‌“Aunty,‌ ‌I’m‌ ‌hanging‌ ‌up‌ ‌now!”‌ ‌

 ‌

By‌ ‌the‌ ‌time‌ ‌the‌ ‌call‌ ‌ended,‌ ‌he‌ ‌had‌ ‌already‌ ‌escaped‌ ‌far‌ ‌away.‌ ‌

 ‌

As‌ ‌soon‌ ‌as‌ ‌the‌ ‌call‌ ‌dropped‌ ‌over‌ ‌here,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun’s‌ ‌comm‌ ‌

sounded.‌ ‌ ‌

 ‌

It‌ ‌was‌ ‌still‌ ‌his‌ ‌mom.‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌even‌ ‌want‌ ‌to‌ ‌pick‌ ‌up‌ ‌at‌ ‌first.‌ ‌However,‌ ‌he‌ ‌

suddenly‌ ‌thought‌ ‌of‌ ‌something.‌ ‌Opening‌ ‌the‌ ‌video‌ ‌comm‌ ‌to‌ ‌the‌ ‌

room,‌ ‌he‌ ‌then‌ ‌picked‌ ‌up‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen’s‌ ‌call.‌ ‌

 ‌

Inside‌ ‌the‌ ‌room,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌saw‌ ‌the‌ ‌video‌ ‌comm‌ ‌light‌ ‌up‌ ‌

again.‌ ‌He‌ ‌was‌ ‌just‌ ‌hesitating‌ ‌about‌ ‌opening‌ ‌the‌ ‌door‌ ‌when‌ ‌he‌ ‌

heard‌ ‌a‌ ‌female‌ ‌voice.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌“Explain‌ ‌quickly!‌ ‌I’m‌ ‌still‌ ‌waiting!”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“I‌ ‌told‌ ‌you‌ ‌I’d‌ ‌tell‌ ‌you‌ ‌later.‌ ‌I’m‌ ‌busy‌ ‌right‌ ‌now.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌“What‌ ‌are‌ ‌you‌ ‌busy‌ ‌with?”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“Busy‌ ‌apologizing‌ ‌to‌ ‌the‌ ‌little‌ ‌friend.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌was‌ ‌startled.‌ ‌He‌ ‌raised‌ ‌his‌ ‌head‌ ‌and‌ ‌looked‌ ‌towards‌ ‌

the‌ ‌video‌ ‌comm.‌ ‌This‌ ‌video‌ ‌comm‌ ‌was‌ ‌pretty‌ ‌much‌ ‌the‌ ‌same‌ ‌as‌ ‌

the‌ ‌building‌ ‌surveillance‌ ‌system‌ ‌on‌ ‌Earth.‌ ‌However,‌ ‌it‌ ‌was‌ ‌even‌ ‌

clearer‌ ‌and‌ ‌more‌ ‌capable.‌ ‌It‌ ‌can‌ ‌compress‌ ‌the‌ ‌view‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌entire‌ ‌

hallway‌ ‌outside‌ ‌inside‌ ‌the‌ ‌video.‌ ‌As‌ ‌long‌ ‌as‌ ‌this‌ ‌video‌ ‌comm‌ ‌was‌ ‌

open,‌ ‌it‌ ‌was‌ ‌possible‌ ‌to‌ ‌see‌ ‌every‌ ‌person‌ ‌walking‌ ‌by‌ ‌the‌ ‌hallway,‌ ‌

hear‌ ‌what‌ ‌they‌ ‌were‌ ‌saying,‌ ‌and‌ ‌see‌ ‌what‌ ‌they‌ ‌were‌ ‌doing‌ ‌very‌ ‌

clearly.‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌promptly‌ ‌saw‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌standing‌ ‌back‌ ‌facing‌ ‌

the‌ ‌door,‌ ‌like‌ ‌he‌ ‌was‌ ‌currently‌ ‌making‌ ‌a‌ ‌call‌ ‌to‌ ‌someone.‌ ‌

 ‌

Just‌ ‌now,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌seemed‌ ‌to‌ ‌have‌ ‌accidentally‌ ‌bumped‌ ‌into‌ ‌

the‌ ‌comm‌ ‌button‌ ‌and‌ ‌opened‌ ‌it,‌ ‌because‌ ‌he‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌seem‌ ‌to‌ ‌have‌ ‌

noticed‌ ‌that‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌was‌ ‌able‌ ‌to‌ ‌see‌ ‌him‌ ‌inside‌ ‌the‌ ‌room.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌never‌ ‌expected‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌to‌ ‌acknowledge‌ ‌such‌ ‌a‌ ‌

person‌ ‌so‌ ‌honestly‌ ‌and‌ ‌frankly.‌ ‌Hearing‌ ‌his‌ ‌words,‌ ‌she‌ ‌even‌ ‌

became‌ ‌dumbfounded‌ ‌briefly‌ ‌before‌ ‌hastily‌ ‌asking:‌ ‌“Was‌ ‌what‌ ‌

Xiao-Cheng‌ ‌said‌ ‌true?‌ ‌You‌ ‌really……”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“En,‌ ‌I‌ ‌care‌ ‌about‌ ‌him‌ ‌very‌ ‌much.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌was‌ ‌even‌ ‌more‌ ‌surprised.‌ ‌

 ‌

She‌ ‌understood‌ ‌her‌ ‌own‌ ‌son‌ ‌too‌ ‌well.‌ ‌To‌ ‌make‌ ‌these‌ ‌words‌ ‌come‌ ‌

out‌ ‌of‌ ‌his‌ ‌mouth,‌ ‌looks‌ ‌like‌ ‌he‌ ‌really‌ ‌did‌ ‌like‌ ‌this‌ ‌‘little‌ ‌friend’‌ ‌

very‌ ‌much.‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌really‌ ‌does‌ ‌like‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou.‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌even‌ ‌know‌ ‌himself‌ ‌when‌ ‌he‌ ‌gained‌ ‌this‌ ‌feeling‌ ‌towards‌ ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou.‌ ‌

 ‌

However,‌ ‌every‌ ‌time‌ ‌he‌ ‌saw‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou,‌ ‌his‌ ‌mood‌ ‌would‌ ‌

become‌ ‌very‌ ‌good.‌ ‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌longed‌ ‌to‌ ‌touch‌ ‌the‌ ‌other,‌ ‌longed‌ ‌to‌ ‌see‌ ‌the‌ ‌other‌ ‌smile‌ ‌

everyday,‌ ‌his‌ ‌brows‌ ‌curving‌ ‌in‌ ‌delight.‌ ‌

 ‌

Ever‌ ‌since‌ ‌his‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌power‌ ‌was‌ ‌contaminated‌ ‌by‌ ‌radiation‌ ‌and‌ ‌

had‌ ‌started‌ ‌to‌ ‌decline,‌ ‌he’s‌ ‌been‌ ‌enduring‌ ‌an‌ ‌excruciating‌ ‌

headache.‌ ‌

 ‌

Only‌ ‌next‌ ‌to‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou’s‌ ‌side‌ ‌would‌ ‌he‌ ‌feel‌ ‌the‌ ‌most‌ ‌

comfortable‌ ‌and‌ ‌most‌ ‌relaxed.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌“Why‌ ‌is‌ ‌he‌ ‌angry‌ ‌at‌ ‌you?”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“I‌ ‌lied‌ ‌to‌ ‌him‌ ‌about‌ ‌something.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌reprimanded:‌ ‌“This‌ ‌is‌ ‌your‌ ‌fault‌ ‌then.‌ ‌Why‌ ‌did‌ ‌you‌ ‌

have‌ ‌to‌ ‌go‌ ‌and‌ ‌lie?”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“Yes,‌ ‌I‌ ‌know‌ ‌I‌ ‌was‌ ‌wrong,‌ ‌but‌ ‌I‌ ‌had‌ ‌my‌ ‌troubles.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌“If‌ ‌you‌ ‌had‌ ‌troubles,‌ ‌then‌ ‌you‌ ‌should‌ ‌hurry‌ ‌up‌ ‌and‌ ‌

tell‌ ‌him!”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“But‌ ‌he’s‌ ‌refusing‌ ‌to‌ ‌talk‌ ‌to‌ ‌me‌ ‌right‌ ‌now.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌became‌ ‌anxious:‌ ‌“If‌ ‌he’s‌ ‌ignoring‌ ‌you,‌ ‌then‌ ‌you‌ ‌

should‌ ‌think‌ ‌of‌ ‌something!‌ ‌What’s‌ ‌the‌ ‌point‌ ‌of‌ ‌telling‌ ‌me!”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌was‌ ‌really‌ ‌worried.‌ ‌This‌ ‌daughter-in-law‌ ‌better‌ ‌not‌ ‌

get‌ ‌scared‌ ‌off‌ ‌by‌ ‌her‌ ‌son‌ ‌before‌ ‌they‌ ‌even‌ ‌met!‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌reply.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌still‌ ‌wanted‌ ‌to‌ ‌scold‌ ‌him‌ ‌a‌ ‌bit‌ ‌more.‌ ‌But‌ ‌what‌ ‌did‌ ‌

this‌ ‌silence‌ ‌mean?‌ ‌

 ‌

Still‌ ‌not‌ ‌saying‌ ‌anything.‌ ‌However,‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌saw‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌

XiaoYun‌ ‌shift‌ ‌to‌ ‌the‌ ‌side‌ ‌faintly,‌ ‌revealing‌ ‌the‌ ‌lit‌ ‌up‌ ‌video‌ ‌comm‌ ‌

behind‌ ‌him.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌froze.‌ ‌

 ‌

She‌ ‌immediately‌ ‌remembered‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue’s‌ ‌words‌ ‌just‌ ‌now.‌ ‌

 ‌

Her‌ ‌son‌ ‌was‌ ‌chased‌ ‌out‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌room.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌examined‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌carefully.‌ ‌Through‌ ‌the‌ ‌screen,‌ ‌

she‌ ‌crossed‌ ‌gazes‌ ‌with‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun.‌ ‌The‌ ‌latter‌ ‌practically‌ ‌had‌ ‌

the‌ ‌words--‌ ‌‘hurry‌ ‌up‌ ‌and‌ ‌ask‌ ‌me‌ ‌about‌ ‌my‌ ‌troubles’‌ ‌written‌ ‌

across‌ ‌his‌ ‌face!‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌corner‌ ‌of‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen’s‌ ‌mouth‌ ‌twitched.‌ ‌She‌ ‌pretended‌ ‌she‌ ‌

didn’t‌ ‌notice‌ ‌anything‌ ‌and‌ ‌asked:‌ ‌“Uh,‌ ‌then……‌ ‌why‌ ‌don’t‌ ‌you‌ ‌tell‌ ‌

me,‌ ‌what‌ ‌troubles‌ ‌you‌ ‌were‌ ‌experiencing?”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“Zhou‌ ‌Zhou’s‌ ‌origin‌ ‌is‌ ‌somewhat‌ ‌special.‌ ‌He‌ ‌holds‌ ‌

plenty‌ ‌of‌ ‌secrets.‌ ‌I‌ ‌can‌ ‌tell‌ ‌he‌ ‌doesn’t‌ ‌want‌ ‌people‌ ‌to‌ ‌know.‌ ‌

Therefore,‌ ‌after‌ ‌I‌ ‌discovered‌ ‌that‌ ‌he‌ ‌had‌ ‌a‌ ‌special‌ ‌skill,‌ ‌in‌ ‌order‌ ‌

to‌ ‌protect‌ ‌him‌ ‌and‌ ‌also‌ ‌to‌ ‌not‌ ‌make‌ ‌him‌ ‌worry,‌ ‌I‌ ‌pretended‌ ‌I‌ ‌

didn’t‌ ‌notice‌ ‌at‌ ‌all.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Inside‌ ‌the‌ ‌room.‌ ‌

 ‌

Hearing‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun’s‌ ‌explanation,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou’s‌ ‌small‌ ‌face‌ ‌fell‌ ‌

slightly.‌ ‌

 ‌

Then,‌ ‌then‌ ‌did‌ ‌this‌ ‌mean,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌only‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌want‌ ‌to‌ ‌worry‌ ‌

him……‌ ‌

 ‌

Then‌ ‌shouldn’t‌ ‌he‌ ‌stop‌ ‌being‌ ‌angry……‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌“Oh‌ ‌oh,‌ ‌so‌ ‌it’s‌ ‌like‌ ‌this.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“En.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Then‌ ‌he‌ ‌continued‌ ‌to‌ ‌use‌ ‌his‌ ‌eyes‌ ‌to‌ ‌indicate:‌ ‌Keep‌ ‌asking.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌“......”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌gave‌ ‌a‌ ‌soft‌ ‌cough:‌ ‌“Then,‌ ‌in‌ ‌other‌ ‌words,‌ ‌you‌ ‌really‌ ‌

care‌ ‌about‌ ‌him‌ ‌a‌ ‌lot?”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“En.‌ ‌Very‌ ‌much.‌ ‌Being‌ ‌ignored‌ ‌by‌ ‌him,‌ ‌I‌ ‌feel‌ ‌

terrible.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Inside‌ ‌the‌ ‌room,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌blushed.‌ ‌Afterwards,‌ ‌he‌ ‌felt‌ ‌

somewhat‌ ‌guilty‌ ‌as‌ ‌well.‌ ‌He‌ ‌made‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌feel‌ ‌terrible?‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌stood‌ ‌up,‌ ‌wanting‌ ‌to‌ ‌go‌ ‌open‌ ‌the‌ ‌door.‌ ‌

 ‌

Remembering‌ ‌that‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌was‌ ‌still‌ ‌in‌ ‌a‌ ‌call,‌ ‌he‌ ‌sat‌ ‌back‌ ‌

down‌ ‌again.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌shook‌ ‌off‌ ‌an‌ ‌entire‌ ‌body‌ ‌full‌ ‌of‌ ‌goosebumps,‌ ‌finding‌ ‌

it‌ ‌somewhat‌ ‌unbearable‌ ‌to‌ ‌continue‌ ‌this‌ ‌conversation‌ ‌

 ‌

She‌ ‌said‌ ‌swiftly:‌ ‌“Then‌ ‌hurry‌ ‌up‌ ‌and‌ ‌go‌ ‌explain‌ ‌this‌ ‌properly.‌ ‌I‌ ‌

think‌ ‌he‌ ‌will‌ ‌definitely‌ ‌understand‌ ‌you.‌ ‌After‌ ‌All,‌ ‌you‌ ‌did‌ ‌it‌ ‌

because‌ ‌you‌ ‌care‌ ‌about‌ ‌him.‌ ‌This‌ ‌is‌ ‌a‌ ‌white‌ ‌lie.”‌ ‌

 ‌

After‌ ‌saying‌ ‌this,‌ ‌she‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌even‌ ‌wait‌ ‌for‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌to‌ ‌reply‌ ‌

before‌ ‌dropping‌ ‌the‌ ‌call.‌ ‌

 ‌

A‌ ‌second‌ ‌after‌ ‌the‌ ‌call‌ ‌ended,‌ ‌a‌ ‌message‌ ‌came‌ ‌over.‌ ‌

 ‌

[Mother:‌ ‌Very‌ ‌good.‌ ‌You’re‌ ‌as‌ ‌shameless‌ ‌as‌ ‌your‌ ‌father‌ ‌when‌ ‌he‌ ‌

was‌ ‌pursuing‌ ‌me‌ ‌back‌ ‌then.]‌ ‌

 ‌

[Mother:‌ ‌You‌ ‌really‌ ‌like?]‌ ‌

 ‌

[Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌En,‌ ‌I‌ ‌like.]‌ ‌

 ‌

[Mother:‌ ‌Already‌ ‌together?]‌ ‌

 ‌

[Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌Pursuing.]‌ ‌

 ‌

Reading‌ ‌the‌ ‌messages,‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌felt‌ ‌her‌ ‌eyes‌ ‌burn‌ ‌slightly.‌ ‌At‌ ‌

the‌ ‌same‌ ‌time,‌ ‌her‌ ‌heart‌ ‌felt‌ ‌relieved.‌ ‌She‌ ‌had‌ ‌been‌ ‌so‌ ‌worried‌ ‌

that‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌would‌ ‌spend‌ ‌his‌ ‌life‌ ‌alone.‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌average‌ ‌lifespan‌ ‌of‌ ‌intergalactic‌ ‌people‌ ‌was‌ ‌around‌ ‌150‌ ‌years‌ ‌

old.‌ ‌The‌ ‌stronger‌ ‌their‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌powers,‌ ‌the‌ ‌longer‌ ‌they‌ ‌lived.‌ ‌

 ‌

Of‌ ‌course,‌ ‌the‌ ‌precondition‌ ‌here‌ ‌was‌ ‌that‌ ‌they‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌get‌ ‌

contaminated‌ ‌by‌ ‌energy‌ ‌radiation.‌ ‌

 ‌

Under‌ ‌energy‌ ‌radiation,‌ ‌lifespan‌ ‌would‌ ‌decrease‌ ‌accompanying‌ ‌

the‌ ‌contamination.‌ ‌The‌ ‌more‌ ‌contamination,‌ ‌the‌ ‌more‌ ‌severe‌ ‌the‌ ‌

decrease.‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌was‌ ‌just‌ ‌rescued,‌ ‌but‌ ‌his‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌power‌ ‌was‌ ‌

contaminated‌ ‌by‌ ‌energy‌ ‌radiation.‌ ‌With‌ ‌such‌ ‌a‌ ‌quick‌ ‌drop‌ ‌in‌ ‌

psychic‌ ‌power,‌ ‌how‌ ‌can‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌not‌ ‌worry?‌ ‌

 ‌

Before,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌had‌ ‌no‌ ‌interest‌ ‌in‌ ‌romantic‌ ‌relationships.‌ ‌

Living‌ ‌to‌ ‌35‌ ‌years‌ ‌old,‌ ‌he‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌even‌ ‌have‌ ‌any‌ ‌rumoured‌ ‌sex‌ ‌

scandals.‌ ‌Now‌ ‌his‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌power‌ ‌was‌ ‌contaminated,‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌

was‌ ‌worried‌ ‌that‌ ‌he‌ ‌would‌ ‌collapse‌ ‌after‌ ‌this‌ ‌setback,‌ ‌and‌ ‌be‌ ‌

unable‌ ‌to‌ ‌get‌ ‌back‌ ‌up‌ ‌again.‌ ‌

 ‌

Now‌ ‌that‌ ‌he‌ ‌had‌ ‌someone‌ ‌he‌ ‌liked,‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌selfishly‌ ‌wished‌ ‌

her‌ ‌son‌ ‌would‌ ‌be‌ ‌happier.‌ ‌Even‌ ‌if‌ ‌he‌ ‌became‌ ‌a‌ ‌normal‌ ‌person‌ ‌in‌ ‌

the‌ ‌future,‌ ‌he‌ ‌can‌ ‌still‌ ‌spend‌ ‌his‌ ‌life‌ ‌normally.‌ ‌

 ‌

Seeing‌ ‌that‌ ‌his‌ ‌mother‌ ‌stopped‌ ‌replying,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌put‌ ‌away‌ ‌

his‌ ‌comm‌ ‌and‌ ‌turned‌ ‌around.‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌video‌ ‌call‌ ‌on‌ ‌the‌ ‌door‌ ‌had‌ ‌closed‌ ‌some‌ ‌unknown‌ ‌time‌ ‌ago.‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌thought‌ ‌for‌ ‌a‌ ‌moment.‌ ‌Just‌ ‌as‌ ‌he‌ ‌raised‌ ‌his‌ ‌hand‌ ‌to‌ ‌press‌ ‌the‌ ‌

video‌ ‌comm‌ ‌again,‌ ‌the‌ ‌door‌ ‌suddenly‌ ‌opened,‌ ‌revealing‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌

Zhou’s‌ ‌nervous‌ ‌little‌ ‌face.‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌withdrew‌ ‌his‌ ‌hand‌ ‌and‌ ‌quietly‌ ‌looked‌ ‌at‌ ‌him:‌ ‌“Zhou‌ ‌

Zhou.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou’s‌ ‌face‌ ‌turned‌ ‌slightly‌ ‌red:‌ ‌“I…I’m‌ ‌not‌ ‌angry‌ ‌

anymore……”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“I’m‌ ‌very‌ ‌happy‌ ‌that‌ ‌you‌ ‌can‌ ‌forgive‌ ‌me,‌ ‌however‌ ‌

I‌ ‌still‌ ‌have‌ ‌something‌ ‌to‌ ‌say.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Head‌ ‌low,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌said:‌ ‌“Say‌ ‌what……”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“I‌ ‌said‌ ‌I‌ ‌don’t‌ ‌want‌ ‌to‌ ‌deceive‌ ‌you‌ ‌again.‌ ‌

Therefore,‌ ‌I‌ ‌have‌ ‌to‌ ‌confess‌ ‌to‌ ‌you.‌ ‌When‌ ‌I‌ ‌was‌ ‌speaking‌ ‌to‌ ‌my‌ ‌

mother,‌ ‌I‌ ‌purposely‌ ‌opened‌ ‌the‌ ‌video‌ ‌comm‌ ‌on‌ ‌the‌ ‌door.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌abruptly‌ ‌raised‌ ‌his‌ ‌head,‌ ‌pointing‌ ‌at‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌

“You……”‌ ‌

 ‌

So‌ ‌that‌ ‌was‌ ‌actually‌ ‌on‌ ‌purpose!‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌seized‌ ‌the‌ ‌opportunity‌ ‌to‌ ‌hold‌ ‌his‌ ‌hand,‌ ‌saying‌ ‌

softly:‌ ‌“But‌ ‌every‌ ‌word‌ ‌I‌ ‌said‌ ‌to‌ ‌my‌ ‌mother‌ ‌was‌ ‌the‌ ‌truth.”‌ ‌

 ‌

His‌ ‌handsome‌ ‌face‌ ‌was‌ ‌extremely‌ ‌serious.‌ ‌There‌ ‌was‌ ‌also‌ ‌an‌ ‌

emotion‌ ‌that‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌couldn’t‌ ‌understand‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌depths‌ ‌of‌ ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun’s‌ ‌eyes.‌ ‌It‌ ‌strangely‌ ‌made‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou’s‌ ‌face‌ ‌feel‌ ‌

hot.‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“I’m‌ ‌sorry.‌ ‌Will‌ ‌you‌ ‌forgive‌ ‌me?”‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌had‌ ‌already‌ ‌said,‌ ‌if‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌ignored‌ ‌him,‌ ‌he‌ ‌would‌ ‌feel‌ ‌

terrible.‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌actually‌ ‌want‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌to‌ ‌feel‌ ‌terrible.‌ ‌

 ‌

With‌ ‌a‌ ‌reddened‌ ‌face,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌said‌ ‌in‌ ‌a‌ ‌small‌ ‌voice:‌ ‌“Since‌ ‌

it’s‌ ‌the‌ ‌truth……‌ ‌very‌ ‌well.‌ ‌I’ll‌ ‌forgive‌ ‌you.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“Then‌ ‌can‌ ‌I‌ ‌still‌ ‌sleep‌ ‌together‌ ‌with‌ ‌you‌ ‌tonight?”‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou:‌ ‌“.......”‌ ‌

 ‌

After‌ ‌a‌ ‌long‌ ‌while,‌ ‌the‌ ‌little‌ ‌God‌ ‌of‌ ‌Wealth‌ ‌finally‌ ‌said:‌ ‌“I’m‌ ‌not‌ ‌

going‌ ‌into‌ ‌your‌ ‌dreams.”‌ ‌

 ‌

“Okay.”‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌said‌ ‌softly:‌ ‌“Then‌ ‌let‌ ‌me‌ ‌go‌ ‌into‌ ‌your‌ ‌

dreams.”‌ ‌

 ‌

~~~~~~~‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌writer‌ ‌has‌ ‌something‌ ‌to‌ ‌say:‌ ‌PS--‌ ‌

 ‌

Cheng‌ ‌JinXue:‌ ‌Just‌ ‌this?‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌Zhou,‌ ‌did‌ ‌you‌ ‌forget?‌ ‌Back‌ ‌then‌ ‌

when‌ ‌you‌ ‌were‌ ‌angry‌ ‌at‌ ‌me,‌ ‌how‌ ‌unfortunate‌ ‌I‌ ‌became?‌ ‌What‌ ‌

about‌ ‌Dear‌ ‌Old‌ ‌Wen?‌ ‌Just‌ ‌this?‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌Can‌ ‌you‌ ‌even‌ ‌compare‌ ‌with‌ ‌me?‌ ‌

 ‌

Cheng‌ ‌JinXue:‌ ‌[So‌ ‌I’m‌ ‌the‌ ‌clown‌ ‌here.]‌ ‌

 

 

Chapter‌ ‌25:‌ ‌Then‌ ‌let‌ ‌me‌ ‌go‌ ‌into‌ ‌your‌ ‌dreams‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌was‌ ‌ignoring‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun.‌ ‌

 ‌

Even‌ ‌when‌ ‌it‌ ‌was‌ ‌time‌ ‌to‌ ‌sleep,‌ ‌he‌ ‌refused‌ ‌to‌ ‌sleep‌ ‌with‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌

XiaoYun.‌ ‌Not‌ ‌only‌ ‌this,‌ ‌he‌ ‌didn't‌ ‌even‌ ‌let‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌enter‌ ‌the‌ ‌

room.‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌lock‌ ‌on‌ ‌the‌ ‌door‌ ‌clearly‌ ‌indicated‌ ‌it‌ ‌was‌ ‌open,‌ ‌but‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌

XiaoYun‌ ‌just‌ ‌couldn't‌ ‌enter.‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌pressed‌ ‌against‌ ‌the‌ ‌video‌ ‌screen‌ ‌and‌ ‌said‌ ‌with‌ ‌a‌ ‌

lowered‌ ‌voice:‌ ‌"Zhou‌ ‌Zhou,‌ ‌don't‌ ‌be‌ ‌angry,‌ ‌please‌ ‌let‌ ‌me‌ ‌in?"‌ ‌

 ‌

Inside‌ ‌the‌ ‌room,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌hugged‌ ‌his‌ ‌Divine‌ ‌Image‌ ‌and‌ ‌sat‌ ‌

on‌ ‌the‌ ‌bed,‌ ‌completely‌ ‌turning‌ ‌a‌ ‌deaf‌ ‌ear‌ ‌to‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun.‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌had‌ ‌placed‌ ‌a‌ ‌divine‌ ‌barrier‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌room.‌ ‌As‌ ‌long‌ ‌as‌ ‌he‌ ‌didn't‌ ‌

remove‌ ‌the‌ ‌barrier,‌ ‌people‌ ‌outside‌ ‌couldn't‌ ‌enter.‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌was‌ ‌really‌ ‌very‌ ‌angry‌ ‌right‌ ‌now!‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌was‌ ‌really‌ ‌too‌ ‌much!‌ ‌Lying‌ ‌to‌ ‌him‌ ‌all‌ ‌this‌ ‌time!‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌clearly‌ ‌knew‌ ‌everything,‌ ‌and‌ ‌even‌ ‌probably‌ ‌knew‌ ‌that‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌

Zhou‌ ‌had‌ ‌the‌ ‌ability‌ ‌to‌ ‌enter‌ ‌other‌ ‌people's‌ ‌dreams!‌ ‌

 ‌

But‌ ‌he‌ ‌had‌ ‌been‌ ‌deceiving‌ ‌him‌ ‌all‌ ‌this‌ ‌time!‌ ‌

 ‌

Hugging‌ ‌the‌ ‌Divine‌ ‌Image,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌sulked:‌ ‌"How‌ ‌could‌ ‌he‌ ‌

do‌ ‌this!"‌ ‌

 ‌

If‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌didn't‌ ‌deceive‌ ‌him,‌ ‌he‌ ‌would‌ ‌have‌ ‌figured‌ ‌out‌ ‌

that‌ ‌his‌ ‌dream‌ ‌granting‌ ‌ability‌ ‌had‌ ‌failed‌ ‌a‌ ‌long‌ ‌time‌ ‌ago!‌ ‌

 ‌

This‌ ‌was‌ ‌an‌ ‌important‌ ‌issue‌ ‌regarding‌ ‌his‌ ‌secret‌ ‌identity.‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌High‌ ‌God‌ ‌had‌ ‌said‌ ‌before,‌ ‌they‌ ‌can‌ ‌live‌ ‌with‌ ‌human‌ ‌

identities,‌ ‌but‌ ‌they‌ ‌couldn't‌ ‌allow‌ ‌humans‌ ‌to‌ ‌know‌ ‌who‌ ‌they‌ ‌

were.‌ ‌Otherwise,‌ ‌they'd‌ ‌get‌ ‌points‌ ‌taken‌ ‌off‌ ‌in‌ ‌their‌ ‌internship!‌ ‌

 ‌

"Zhou‌ ‌Zhou."‌ ‌

 ‌

In‌ ‌front‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌video‌ ‌screen,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌stared‌ ‌closely‌ ‌at‌ ‌the‌ ‌

camera‌ ‌lens,‌ ‌as‌ ‌if‌ ‌trying‌ ‌to‌ ‌see‌ ‌the‌ ‌person‌ ‌inside‌ ‌through‌ ‌it.‌ ‌

 ‌

"I‌ ‌didn't‌ ‌lie‌ ‌to‌ ‌you‌ ‌on‌ ‌purpose.‌ ‌Let‌ ‌me‌ ‌inside‌ ‌first.‌ ‌I'll‌ ‌explain‌ ‌

myself‌ ‌to‌ ‌you."‌ ‌

 ‌

Still‌ ‌saying‌ ‌it‌ ‌wasn't‌ ‌on‌ ‌purpose!‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌had‌ ‌asked‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌many‌ ‌times.‌ ‌

 ‌

But‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌said‌ ‌he‌ ‌didn't‌ ‌remember‌ ‌every‌ ‌time.‌ ‌

 ‌

Yet‌ ‌why‌ ‌would‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌and‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌remember‌ ‌the‌ ‌

content‌ ‌of‌ ‌their‌ ‌granted‌ ‌dreams?‌ ‌

 ‌

Logically‌ ‌speaking,‌ ‌normal‌ ‌people‌ ‌shouldn't‌ ‌know‌ ‌this.‌ ‌

 ‌

Humans‌ ‌knew‌ ‌very‌ ‌little‌ ‌about‌ ‌their‌ ‌subconscious,‌ ‌so‌ ‌how‌ ‌did‌ ‌

they‌ ‌know?‌ ‌

 ‌

How‌ ‌can‌ ‌he‌ ‌explain‌ ‌this,‌ ‌in‌ ‌a‌ ‌way‌ ‌that‌ ‌did‌ ‌not‌ ‌expose‌ ‌his‌ ‌

identity?‌ ‌

 ‌

Sinking‌ ‌into‌ ‌conflict,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌pulled‌ ‌over‌ ‌his‌ ‌personal‌ ‌

computer‌ ‌and‌ ‌did‌ ‌some‌ ‌research.‌ ‌

 ‌

After‌ ‌a‌ ‌while,‌ ‌he‌ ‌became‌ ‌enlightened.‌ ‌

 ‌

Around‌ ‌10‌ ‌years‌ ‌old,‌ ‌intergalactic‌ ‌people‌ ‌can‌ ‌be‌ ‌tested‌ ‌for‌ ‌

psychic‌ ‌powers‌ ‌and‌ ‌physical‌ ‌strength.‌ ‌These‌ ‌people‌ ‌were‌ ‌

different‌ ‌from‌ ‌normal‌ ‌people‌ ‌on‌ ‌earth.‌ ‌

 ‌

When‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌powers‌ ‌reach‌ ‌a‌ ‌certain‌ ‌level,‌ ‌it‌ ‌can‌ ‌even‌ ‌be‌ ‌used‌ ‌as‌ ‌

a‌ ‌weapon,‌ ‌capable‌ ‌of‌ ‌suppressing‌ ‌those‌ ‌with‌ ‌weaker‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌

strength.‌ ‌The‌ ‌stronger‌ ‌someone's‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌powers,‌ ‌naturally‌ ‌the‌ ‌

clearer‌ ‌their‌ ‌thoughts‌ ‌and‌ ‌subconscious.‌ ‌

 ‌

This‌ ‌was‌ ‌probably‌ ‌the‌ ‌reason‌ ‌for‌ ‌the‌ ‌failure‌ ‌of‌ ‌his‌ ‌dream‌ ‌granting‌ ‌

ability.‌ ‌Because‌ ‌both‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌and‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌had‌ ‌above‌ ‌

S‌ ‌level‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌powers.‌ ‌

 ‌

After‌ ‌discovering‌ ‌the‌ ‌truth,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌became‌ ‌even‌ ‌more‌ ‌

depressed.‌ ‌

 ‌

Didn't‌ ‌this‌ ‌indicate‌ ‌that‌ ‌on‌ ‌the‌ ‌first‌ ‌night‌ ‌of‌ ‌granting‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌

a‌ ‌dream,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌already‌ ‌knew?‌ ‌

 ‌

"Zhou‌ ‌Zhou...…"‌ ‌

 ‌

Outside‌ ‌the‌ ‌door,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun's‌ ‌voice‌ ‌gradually‌ ‌became‌ ‌

helpless.‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌youth‌ ‌was‌ ‌normally‌ ‌very‌ ‌easy‌ ‌to‌ ‌converse‌ ‌with.‌ ‌Even‌ ‌when‌ ‌

mad,‌ ‌he‌ ‌was‌ ‌very‌ ‌cute.‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌never‌ ‌thought‌ ‌that‌ ‌when‌ ‌the‌ ‌youth‌ ‌really‌ ‌became‌ ‌

angry,‌ ‌it‌ ‌would‌ ‌make‌ ‌him‌ ‌this‌ ‌worried‌ ‌as‌ ‌well.‌ ‌

 ‌

That's‌ ‌right.‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌really‌ ‌felt‌ ‌slightly‌ ‌worried.‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌appeared‌ ‌too‌ ‌strangely,‌ ‌carrying‌ ‌a‌ ‌certain‌ ‌special‌ ‌

power.‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌suspected‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌to‌ ‌be‌ ‌a‌ ‌race‌ ‌of‌ ‌some‌ ‌

other‌ ‌intergalactic‌ ‌civilization.‌ ‌

 ‌

Therefore‌ ‌he‌ ‌was‌ ‌really‌ ‌worried‌ ‌that‌ ‌after‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌became‌ ‌

angry,‌ ‌he'd‌ ‌leave‌ ‌without‌ ‌a‌ ‌sound,‌ ‌just‌ ‌like‌ ‌how‌ ‌he‌ ‌had‌ ‌

appeared.‌ ‌

 ‌

"Zhou‌ ‌Zhou,‌ ‌open‌ ‌the‌ ‌door.‌ ‌I‌ ‌promise‌ ‌I‌ ‌won't‌ ‌deceive‌ ‌you‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌

future‌ ‌ever‌ ‌again,‌ ‌okay?"‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌coaxed‌ ‌softly.‌ ‌

 ‌

But‌ ‌the‌ ‌door‌ ‌still‌ ‌remained‌ ‌unable‌ ‌to‌ ‌be‌ ‌opened.‌ ‌

 ‌

Thus,‌ ‌all‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌crew‌ ‌walking‌ ‌around‌ ‌on‌ ‌battleship‌ ‌Wyvern‌ ‌saw‌ ‌

this‌ ‌scene--‌ ‌The‌ ‌Admiral‌ ‌and‌ ‌his‌ ‌wife‌ ‌having‌ ‌a‌ ‌fight.‌ ‌The‌ ‌Admiral‌ ‌

was‌ ‌even‌ ‌chased‌ ‌out‌ ‌of‌ ‌their‌ ‌room‌ ‌by‌ ‌the‌ ‌madam!‌ ‌

 ‌

They‌ ‌have‌ ‌to‌ ‌say,‌ ‌the‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌was‌ ‌really‌ ‌very‌ ‌domineering!‌ ‌

 ‌

Who‌ ‌would‌ ‌dare‌ ‌to‌ ‌sweep‌ ‌the‌ ‌Admiral‌ ‌out‌ ‌the‌ ‌door‌ ‌like‌ ‌this?!‌ ‌

 ‌

Only‌ ‌their‌ ‌Madam!‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌Admiral‌ ‌was‌ ‌really‌ ‌pitiful...…‌ ‌

 ‌

Meanwhile,‌ ‌at‌ ‌this‌ ‌time,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌received‌ ‌a‌ ‌strange‌ ‌

retribution!‌ ‌

 ‌

"Aiyaya,‌ ‌who's‌ ‌this?‌ ‌Isn't‌ ‌this‌ ‌Dear‌ ‌Old‌ ‌Wen?"‌ ‌The‌ ‌passing‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌

JinXue‌ ‌said‌ ‌eccentrically.‌ ‌Looking‌ ‌like‌ ‌he‌ ‌was‌ ‌very‌ ‌worried‌ ‌about‌ ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun,‌ ‌he‌ ‌said:‌ ‌"Dear‌ ‌Old‌ ‌Wen,‌ ‌how‌ ‌come‌ ‌you're‌ ‌here?‌ ‌

It's‌ ‌already‌ ‌so‌ ‌late,‌ ‌still‌ ‌can't‌ ‌sleep?‌ ‌Is‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌not‌ ‌letting‌ ‌you‌ ‌

inside?‌ ‌Ai,‌ ‌isn't‌ ‌this‌ ‌too‌ ‌tragic."‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌gave‌ ‌him‌ ‌a‌ ‌cold‌ ‌look.‌ ‌

 ‌

This‌ ‌time,‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌didn't‌ ‌even‌ ‌know‌ ‌fear.‌ ‌

 ‌

Thanks‌ ‌to‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou,‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌finally‌ ‌knew‌ ‌why‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌

XiaoYun‌ ‌had‌ ‌targeted‌ ‌him.‌ ‌

 ‌

Just‌ ‌because‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌had‌ ‌said‌ ‌that‌ ‌he‌ ‌liked‌ ‌him‌ ‌best‌ ‌in‌ ‌front‌ ‌

of‌ ‌the‌ ‌Boss!‌ ‌The‌ ‌Boss‌ ‌drank‌ ‌vinegar‌ ‌and‌ ‌went‌ ‌to‌ ‌call‌ ‌his‌ ‌mom‌ ‌to‌ ‌

force‌ ‌him‌ ‌into‌ ‌marriage‌ ‌interviews!‌ ‌

 ‌

Calling‌ ‌his‌ ‌mom‌ ‌hah.‌ ‌Who‌ ‌didn't‌ ‌know‌ ‌how‌ ‌to‌ ‌call‌ ‌moms!‌ ‌

 ‌

Boss‌ ‌can‌ ‌do‌ ‌it,‌ ‌so‌ ‌can‌ ‌he!‌ ‌

 ‌

As‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌said‌ ‌worriedly:‌ ‌"Don't‌ ‌you‌ ‌have‌ ‌a‌ ‌lot‌ ‌of‌ ‌things‌ ‌to‌ ‌

do‌ ‌tomorrow?‌ ‌The‌ ‌first‌ ‌round‌ ‌of‌ ‌excavation‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌quarry‌ ‌is‌ ‌

already‌ ‌completed.‌ ‌Do‌ ‌we‌ ‌need‌ ‌to‌ ‌excavate‌ ‌10‌ ‌meters‌ ‌deeper‌ ‌

for‌ ‌the‌ ‌2nd‌ ‌round?‌ ‌If‌ ‌you‌ ‌don't‌ ‌rest‌ ‌now,‌ ‌won't‌ ‌you‌ ‌be‌ ‌very‌ ‌tired‌ ‌

tomorrow?‌ ‌How‌ ‌about‌ ‌I‌ ‌help‌ ‌you‌ ‌coax‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌Zhou?‌ ‌Ah?‌ ‌Forget‌ ‌it,‌ ‌

forget‌ ‌it.‌ ‌I‌ ‌also‌ ‌don't‌ ‌know‌ ‌how‌ ‌to‌ ‌coax‌ ‌people.‌ ‌How‌ ‌about‌ ‌I‌ ‌find‌ ‌

aunty‌ ‌to‌ ‌help‌ ‌you!"‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌placed‌ ‌a‌ ‌call‌ ‌to‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun's‌ ‌

mother.‌ ‌

 ‌

There's‌ ‌a‌ ‌time‌ ‌difference‌ ‌between‌ ‌the‌ ‌Capitol‌ ‌planet‌ ‌and‌ ‌the‌ ‌

garbage‌ ‌planet.‌ ‌At‌ ‌this‌ ‌time,‌ ‌it‌ ‌just‌ ‌happened‌ ‌to‌ ‌be‌ ‌noon‌ ‌on‌ ‌the‌ ‌

Capitol‌ ‌planet.‌ ‌

 ‌

When‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌answered‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue's‌ ‌call,‌ ‌she‌ ‌was‌ ‌

actually‌ ‌somewhat‌ ‌surprised:‌ ‌"Xiao-Cheng,‌ ‌you‌ ‌have‌ ‌time‌ ‌to‌ ‌

call‌ ‌me‌ ‌right‌ ‌now?"‌ ‌

 ‌

Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌immediately‌ ‌said‌ ‌with‌ ‌an‌ ‌anxious,‌ ‌miserable‌ ‌face:‌ ‌

"Aunty,‌ ‌I‌ ‌came‌ ‌to‌ ‌find‌ ‌you...….‌ ‌because‌ ‌I‌ ‌want‌ ‌you‌ ‌to‌ ‌come‌ ‌up‌ ‌

with‌ ‌a‌ ‌plan!"‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌"What‌ ‌plan?"‌ ‌

 ‌

Cheng‌ ‌JinXue:‌ ‌"Because‌ ‌of‌ ‌me,‌ ‌Boss‌ ‌and‌ ‌SaoZi‌ ‌had‌ ‌a‌ ‌fight.‌ ‌Boss‌ ‌

was‌ ‌chased‌ ‌out‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌room.‌ ‌SaoZi‌ ‌isn't‌ ‌even‌ ‌letting‌ ‌Boss‌ ‌enter‌ ‌

the‌ ‌room‌ ‌to‌ ‌sleep.‌ ‌I'm‌ ‌so‌ ‌worried,‌ ‌but‌ ‌the‌ ‌little‌ ‌pitiful‌ ‌me‌ ‌really‌ ‌

had‌ ‌no‌ ‌interest‌ ‌in‌ ‌SaoZi‌ ‌at‌ ‌all.‌ ‌Boss‌ ‌was‌ ‌the‌ ‌one‌ ‌who‌ ‌

misunderstood‌ ‌and‌ ‌now‌ ‌SaoZi‌ ‌is‌ ‌angry.‌ ‌Everyone‌ ‌here‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌3rd‌ ‌

legion‌ ‌are‌ ‌manly‌ ‌men.‌ ‌We‌ ‌have‌ ‌no‌ ‌idea‌ ‌how‌ ‌to‌ ‌make‌ ‌SaoZi‌ ‌

happy.‌ ‌Therefore,‌ ‌I‌ ‌can‌ ‌only‌ ‌call‌ ‌and‌ ‌ask‌ ‌you‌ ‌Aunty."‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌"...…"‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen's‌ ‌voice‌ ‌instantly‌ ‌raised‌ ‌in‌ ‌pitch:‌ ‌"What?!‌ ‌Saozi?!"‌ ‌

 ‌

Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌said‌ ‌in‌ ‌shock:‌ ‌"Ah?‌ ‌Yes‌ ‌Aunty,‌ ‌you‌ ‌don't‌ ‌know?‌ ‌

Boss‌ ‌has‌ ‌someone‌ ‌he‌ ‌likes."‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌"...…."‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌became‌ ‌excited:‌ ‌"I‌ ‌know‌ ‌now!‌ ‌Xiao-Cheng,‌ ‌tell‌ ‌me‌ ‌

quickly.‌ ‌Who‌ ‌does‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌like?‌ ‌What‌ ‌planet‌ ‌do‌ ‌they‌ ‌live‌ ‌on?‌ ‌

Who‌ ‌are‌ ‌their‌ ‌parents?‌ ‌How‌ ‌old‌ ‌is‌ ‌that‌ ‌child?‌ ‌Are‌ ‌there‌ ‌any‌ ‌

pictures?‌ ‌This‌ ‌bastard‌ ‌son‌ ‌of‌ ‌mine!‌ ‌Getting‌ ‌into‌ ‌such‌ ‌a‌ ‌big‌ ‌thing‌ ‌

two‌ ‌months‌ ‌ago.‌ ‌After‌ ‌you‌ ‌guys‌ ‌found‌ ‌him,‌ ‌he‌ ‌only‌ ‌sent‌ ‌a‌ ‌

message,‌ ‌reporting‌ ‌that‌ ‌he‌ ‌was‌ ‌safe‌ ‌and‌ ‌sound‌ ‌without‌ ‌saying‌ ‌

anything‌ ‌else!‌ ‌This‌ ‌was‌ ‌really‌ ‌hidden‌ ‌extremely‌ ‌tightly!"‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌couldn't‌ ‌help‌ ‌but‌ ‌say:‌ ‌"Mom!"‌ ‌

 ‌

Hearing‌ ‌that‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌was‌ ‌also‌ ‌present,‌ ‌she‌ ‌immediately‌ ‌

started‌ ‌wiping‌ ‌tears:‌ ‌"What‌ ‌is‌ ‌it?‌ ‌Can't‌ ‌I‌ ‌even‌ ‌ask?‌ ‌Tell‌ ‌me,‌ ‌do‌ ‌

you‌ ‌think‌ ‌my‌ ‌life‌ ‌is‌ ‌easy?‌ ‌Last‌ ‌time,‌ ‌something‌ ‌happened‌ ‌to‌ ‌you,‌ ‌

the‌ ‌entire‌ ‌universe‌ ‌said‌ ‌you‌ ‌were‌ ‌dead.‌ ‌Those‌ ‌people‌ ‌were‌ ‌all‌ ‌

laughing‌ ‌at‌ ‌me‌ ‌saying‌ ‌the‌ ‌Old‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌family‌ ‌has‌ ‌definitely‌ ‌ended.‌ ‌

They‌ ‌were‌ ‌even‌ ‌trying‌ ‌to‌ ‌convince‌ ‌me‌ ‌to‌ ‌remarry!‌ ‌Wuuwuu‌ ‌my‌ ‌

life‌ ‌is‌ ‌really‌ ‌too‌ ‌hard...…"‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌said‌ ‌expressionlessly:‌ ‌“Stop‌ ‌pretending.‌ ‌I‌ ‌saw‌ ‌you‌ ‌

wipe‌ ‌saliva‌ ‌over‌ ‌your‌ ‌eyes.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌“......”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌said:‌ ‌“I‌ ‌will‌ ‌tell‌ ‌you‌ ‌later”‌ ‌and‌ ‌then‌ ‌threatened‌ ‌

Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌to‌ ‌hang‌ ‌up‌ ‌the‌ ‌call.‌ ‌

 ‌

Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌got‌ ‌his‌ ‌revenge.‌ ‌Afraid‌ ‌that‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌would‌ ‌

come‌ ‌back‌ ‌and‌ ‌deal‌ ‌with‌ ‌him,‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue‌ ‌ran‌ ‌away‌ ‌while‌ ‌

yelling:‌ ‌“Aunty,‌ ‌I’m‌ ‌hanging‌ ‌up‌ ‌now!”‌ ‌

 ‌

By‌ ‌the‌ ‌time‌ ‌the‌ ‌call‌ ‌ended,‌ ‌he‌ ‌had‌ ‌already‌ ‌escaped‌ ‌far‌ ‌away.‌ ‌

 ‌

As‌ ‌soon‌ ‌as‌ ‌the‌ ‌call‌ ‌dropped‌ ‌over‌ ‌here,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun’s‌ ‌comm‌ ‌

sounded.‌ ‌ ‌

 ‌

It‌ ‌was‌ ‌still‌ ‌his‌ ‌mom.‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌even‌ ‌want‌ ‌to‌ ‌pick‌ ‌up‌ ‌at‌ ‌first.‌ ‌However,‌ ‌he‌ ‌

suddenly‌ ‌thought‌ ‌of‌ ‌something.‌ ‌Opening‌ ‌the‌ ‌video‌ ‌comm‌ ‌to‌ ‌the‌ ‌

room,‌ ‌he‌ ‌then‌ ‌picked‌ ‌up‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen’s‌ ‌call.‌ ‌

 ‌

Inside‌ ‌the‌ ‌room,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌saw‌ ‌the‌ ‌video‌ ‌comm‌ ‌light‌ ‌up‌ ‌

again.‌ ‌He‌ ‌was‌ ‌just‌ ‌hesitating‌ ‌about‌ ‌opening‌ ‌the‌ ‌door‌ ‌when‌ ‌he‌ ‌

heard‌ ‌a‌ ‌female‌ ‌voice.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌“Explain‌ ‌quickly!‌ ‌I’m‌ ‌still‌ ‌waiting!”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“I‌ ‌told‌ ‌you‌ ‌I’d‌ ‌tell‌ ‌you‌ ‌later.‌ ‌I’m‌ ‌busy‌ ‌right‌ ‌now.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌“What‌ ‌are‌ ‌you‌ ‌busy‌ ‌with?”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“Busy‌ ‌apologizing‌ ‌to‌ ‌the‌ ‌little‌ ‌friend.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌was‌ ‌startled.‌ ‌He‌ ‌raised‌ ‌his‌ ‌head‌ ‌and‌ ‌looked‌ ‌towards‌ ‌

the‌ ‌video‌ ‌comm.‌ ‌This‌ ‌video‌ ‌comm‌ ‌was‌ ‌pretty‌ ‌much‌ ‌the‌ ‌same‌ ‌as‌ ‌

the‌ ‌building‌ ‌surveillance‌ ‌system‌ ‌on‌ ‌Earth.‌ ‌However,‌ ‌it‌ ‌was‌ ‌even‌ ‌

clearer‌ ‌and‌ ‌more‌ ‌capable.‌ ‌It‌ ‌can‌ ‌compress‌ ‌the‌ ‌view‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌entire‌ ‌

hallway‌ ‌outside‌ ‌inside‌ ‌the‌ ‌video.‌ ‌As‌ ‌long‌ ‌as‌ ‌this‌ ‌video‌ ‌comm‌ ‌was‌ ‌

open,‌ ‌it‌ ‌was‌ ‌possible‌ ‌to‌ ‌see‌ ‌every‌ ‌person‌ ‌walking‌ ‌by‌ ‌the‌ ‌hallway,‌ ‌

hear‌ ‌what‌ ‌they‌ ‌were‌ ‌saying,‌ ‌and‌ ‌see‌ ‌what‌ ‌they‌ ‌were‌ ‌doing‌ ‌very‌ ‌

clearly.‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌promptly‌ ‌saw‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌standing‌ ‌back‌ ‌facing‌ ‌

the‌ ‌door,‌ ‌like‌ ‌he‌ ‌was‌ ‌currently‌ ‌making‌ ‌a‌ ‌call‌ ‌to‌ ‌someone.‌ ‌

 ‌

Just‌ ‌now,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌seemed‌ ‌to‌ ‌have‌ ‌accidentally‌ ‌bumped‌ ‌into‌ ‌

the‌ ‌comm‌ ‌button‌ ‌and‌ ‌opened‌ ‌it,‌ ‌because‌ ‌he‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌seem‌ ‌to‌ ‌have‌ ‌

noticed‌ ‌that‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌was‌ ‌able‌ ‌to‌ ‌see‌ ‌him‌ ‌inside‌ ‌the‌ ‌room.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌never‌ ‌expected‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌to‌ ‌acknowledge‌ ‌such‌ ‌a‌ ‌

person‌ ‌so‌ ‌honestly‌ ‌and‌ ‌frankly.‌ ‌Hearing‌ ‌his‌ ‌words,‌ ‌she‌ ‌even‌ ‌

became‌ ‌dumbfounded‌ ‌briefly‌ ‌before‌ ‌hastily‌ ‌asking:‌ ‌“Was‌ ‌what‌ ‌

Xiao-Cheng‌ ‌said‌ ‌true?‌ ‌You‌ ‌really……”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“En,‌ ‌I‌ ‌care‌ ‌about‌ ‌him‌ ‌very‌ ‌much.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌was‌ ‌even‌ ‌more‌ ‌surprised.‌ ‌

 ‌

She‌ ‌understood‌ ‌her‌ ‌own‌ ‌son‌ ‌too‌ ‌well.‌ ‌To‌ ‌make‌ ‌these‌ ‌words‌ ‌come‌ ‌

out‌ ‌of‌ ‌his‌ ‌mouth,‌ ‌looks‌ ‌like‌ ‌he‌ ‌really‌ ‌did‌ ‌like‌ ‌this‌ ‌‘little‌ ‌friend’‌ ‌

very‌ ‌much.‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌really‌ ‌does‌ ‌like‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou.‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌even‌ ‌know‌ ‌himself‌ ‌when‌ ‌he‌ ‌gained‌ ‌this‌ ‌feeling‌ ‌towards‌ ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou.‌ ‌

 ‌

However,‌ ‌every‌ ‌time‌ ‌he‌ ‌saw‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou,‌ ‌his‌ ‌mood‌ ‌would‌ ‌

become‌ ‌very‌ ‌good.‌ ‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌longed‌ ‌to‌ ‌touch‌ ‌the‌ ‌other,‌ ‌longed‌ ‌to‌ ‌see‌ ‌the‌ ‌other‌ ‌smile‌ ‌

everyday,‌ ‌his‌ ‌brows‌ ‌curving‌ ‌in‌ ‌delight.‌ ‌

 ‌

Ever‌ ‌since‌ ‌his‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌power‌ ‌was‌ ‌contaminated‌ ‌by‌ ‌radiation‌ ‌and‌ ‌

had‌ ‌started‌ ‌to‌ ‌decline,‌ ‌he’s‌ ‌been‌ ‌enduring‌ ‌an‌ ‌excruciating‌ ‌

headache.‌ ‌

 ‌

Only‌ ‌next‌ ‌to‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou’s‌ ‌side‌ ‌would‌ ‌he‌ ‌feel‌ ‌the‌ ‌most‌ ‌

comfortable‌ ‌and‌ ‌most‌ ‌relaxed.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌“Why‌ ‌is‌ ‌he‌ ‌angry‌ ‌at‌ ‌you?”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“I‌ ‌lied‌ ‌to‌ ‌him‌ ‌about‌ ‌something.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌reprimanded:‌ ‌“This‌ ‌is‌ ‌your‌ ‌fault‌ ‌then.‌ ‌Why‌ ‌did‌ ‌you‌ ‌

have‌ ‌to‌ ‌go‌ ‌and‌ ‌lie?”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“Yes,‌ ‌I‌ ‌know‌ ‌I‌ ‌was‌ ‌wrong,‌ ‌but‌ ‌I‌ ‌had‌ ‌my‌ ‌troubles.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌“If‌ ‌you‌ ‌had‌ ‌troubles,‌ ‌then‌ ‌you‌ ‌should‌ ‌hurry‌ ‌up‌ ‌and‌ ‌

tell‌ ‌him!”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“But‌ ‌he’s‌ ‌refusing‌ ‌to‌ ‌talk‌ ‌to‌ ‌me‌ ‌right‌ ‌now.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌became‌ ‌anxious:‌ ‌“If‌ ‌he’s‌ ‌ignoring‌ ‌you,‌ ‌then‌ ‌you‌ ‌

should‌ ‌think‌ ‌of‌ ‌something!‌ ‌What’s‌ ‌the‌ ‌point‌ ‌of‌ ‌telling‌ ‌me!”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌was‌ ‌really‌ ‌worried.‌ ‌This‌ ‌daughter-in-law‌ ‌better‌ ‌not‌ ‌

get‌ ‌scared‌ ‌off‌ ‌by‌ ‌her‌ ‌son‌ ‌before‌ ‌they‌ ‌even‌ ‌met!‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌reply.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌still‌ ‌wanted‌ ‌to‌ ‌scold‌ ‌him‌ ‌a‌ ‌bit‌ ‌more.‌ ‌But‌ ‌what‌ ‌did‌ ‌

this‌ ‌silence‌ ‌mean?‌ ‌

 ‌

Still‌ ‌not‌ ‌saying‌ ‌anything.‌ ‌However,‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌saw‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌

XiaoYun‌ ‌shift‌ ‌to‌ ‌the‌ ‌side‌ ‌faintly,‌ ‌revealing‌ ‌the‌ ‌lit‌ ‌up‌ ‌video‌ ‌comm‌ ‌

behind‌ ‌him.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌froze.‌ ‌

 ‌

She‌ ‌immediately‌ ‌remembered‌ ‌Cheng‌ ‌JinXue’s‌ ‌words‌ ‌just‌ ‌now.‌ ‌

 ‌

Her‌ ‌son‌ ‌was‌ ‌chased‌ ‌out‌ ‌of‌ ‌the‌ ‌room.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌examined‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌carefully.‌ ‌Through‌ ‌the‌ ‌screen,‌ ‌

she‌ ‌crossed‌ ‌gazes‌ ‌with‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun.‌ ‌The‌ ‌latter‌ ‌practically‌ ‌had‌ ‌

the‌ ‌words--‌ ‌‘hurry‌ ‌up‌ ‌and‌ ‌ask‌ ‌me‌ ‌about‌ ‌my‌ ‌troubles’‌ ‌written‌ ‌

across‌ ‌his‌ ‌face!‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌corner‌ ‌of‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen’s‌ ‌mouth‌ ‌twitched.‌ ‌She‌ ‌pretended‌ ‌she‌ ‌

didn’t‌ ‌notice‌ ‌anything‌ ‌and‌ ‌asked:‌ ‌“Uh,‌ ‌then……‌ ‌why‌ ‌don’t‌ ‌you‌ ‌tell‌ ‌

me,‌ ‌what‌ ‌troubles‌ ‌you‌ ‌were‌ ‌experiencing?”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“Zhou‌ ‌Zhou’s‌ ‌origin‌ ‌is‌ ‌somewhat‌ ‌special.‌ ‌He‌ ‌holds‌ ‌

plenty‌ ‌of‌ ‌secrets.‌ ‌I‌ ‌can‌ ‌tell‌ ‌he‌ ‌doesn’t‌ ‌want‌ ‌people‌ ‌to‌ ‌know.‌ ‌

Therefore,‌ ‌after‌ ‌I‌ ‌discovered‌ ‌that‌ ‌he‌ ‌had‌ ‌a‌ ‌special‌ ‌skill,‌ ‌in‌ ‌order‌ ‌

to‌ ‌protect‌ ‌him‌ ‌and‌ ‌also‌ ‌to‌ ‌not‌ ‌make‌ ‌him‌ ‌worry,‌ ‌I‌ ‌pretended‌ ‌I‌ ‌

didn’t‌ ‌notice‌ ‌at‌ ‌all.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Inside‌ ‌the‌ ‌room.‌ ‌

 ‌

Hearing‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun’s‌ ‌explanation,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou’s‌ ‌small‌ ‌face‌ ‌fell‌ ‌

slightly.‌ ‌

 ‌

Then,‌ ‌then‌ ‌did‌ ‌this‌ ‌mean,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌only‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌want‌ ‌to‌ ‌worry‌ ‌

him……‌ ‌

 ‌

Then‌ ‌shouldn’t‌ ‌he‌ ‌stop‌ ‌being‌ ‌angry……‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌“Oh‌ ‌oh,‌ ‌so‌ ‌it’s‌ ‌like‌ ‌this.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“En.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Then‌ ‌he‌ ‌continued‌ ‌to‌ ‌use‌ ‌his‌ ‌eyes‌ ‌to‌ ‌indicate:‌ ‌Keep‌ ‌asking.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen:‌ ‌“......”‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌gave‌ ‌a‌ ‌soft‌ ‌cough:‌ ‌“Then,‌ ‌in‌ ‌other‌ ‌words,‌ ‌you‌ ‌really‌ ‌

care‌ ‌about‌ ‌him‌ ‌a‌ ‌lot?”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“En.‌ ‌Very‌ ‌much.‌ ‌Being‌ ‌ignored‌ ‌by‌ ‌him,‌ ‌I‌ ‌feel‌ ‌

terrible.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Inside‌ ‌the‌ ‌room,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌blushed.‌ ‌Afterwards,‌ ‌he‌ ‌felt‌ ‌

somewhat‌ ‌guilty‌ ‌as‌ ‌well.‌ ‌He‌ ‌made‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌feel‌ ‌terrible?‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌stood‌ ‌up,‌ ‌wanting‌ ‌to‌ ‌go‌ ‌open‌ ‌the‌ ‌door.‌ ‌

 ‌

Remembering‌ ‌that‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌was‌ ‌still‌ ‌in‌ ‌a‌ ‌call,‌ ‌he‌ ‌sat‌ ‌back‌ ‌

down‌ ‌again.‌ ‌

 ‌

Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌shook‌ ‌off‌ ‌an‌ ‌entire‌ ‌body‌ ‌full‌ ‌of‌ ‌goosebumps,‌ ‌finding‌ ‌

it‌ ‌somewhat‌ ‌unbearable‌ ‌to‌ ‌continue‌ ‌this‌ ‌conversation‌ ‌

 ‌

She‌ ‌said‌ ‌swiftly:‌ ‌“Then‌ ‌hurry‌ ‌up‌ ‌and‌ ‌go‌ ‌explain‌ ‌this‌ ‌properly.‌ ‌I‌ ‌

think‌ ‌he‌ ‌will‌ ‌definitely‌ ‌understand‌ ‌you.‌ ‌After‌ ‌All,‌ ‌you‌ ‌did‌ ‌it‌ ‌

because‌ ‌you‌ ‌care‌ ‌about‌ ‌him.‌ ‌This‌ ‌is‌ ‌a‌ ‌white‌ ‌lie.”‌ ‌

 ‌

After‌ ‌saying‌ ‌this,‌ ‌she‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌even‌ ‌wait‌ ‌for‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌to‌ ‌reply‌ ‌

before‌ ‌dropping‌ ‌the‌ ‌call.‌ ‌

 ‌

A‌ ‌second‌ ‌after‌ ‌the‌ ‌call‌ ‌ended,‌ ‌a‌ ‌message‌ ‌came‌ ‌over.‌ ‌

 ‌

[Mother:‌ ‌Very‌ ‌good.‌ ‌You’re‌ ‌as‌ ‌shameless‌ ‌as‌ ‌your‌ ‌father‌ ‌when‌ ‌he‌ ‌

was‌ ‌pursuing‌ ‌me‌ ‌back‌ ‌then.]‌ ‌

 ‌

[Mother:‌ ‌You‌ ‌really‌ ‌like?]‌ ‌

 ‌

[Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌En,‌ ‌I‌ ‌like.]‌ ‌

 ‌

[Mother:‌ ‌Already‌ ‌together?]‌ ‌

 ‌

[Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌Pursuing.]‌ ‌

 ‌

Reading‌ ‌the‌ ‌messages,‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌felt‌ ‌her‌ ‌eyes‌ ‌burn‌ ‌slightly.‌ ‌At‌ ‌

the‌ ‌same‌ ‌time,‌ ‌her‌ ‌heart‌ ‌felt‌ ‌relieved.‌ ‌She‌ ‌had‌ ‌been‌ ‌so‌ ‌worried‌ ‌

that‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌would‌ ‌spend‌ ‌his‌ ‌life‌ ‌alone.‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌average‌ ‌lifespan‌ ‌of‌ ‌intergalactic‌ ‌people‌ ‌was‌ ‌around‌ ‌150‌ ‌years‌ ‌

old.‌ ‌The‌ ‌stronger‌ ‌their‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌powers,‌ ‌the‌ ‌longer‌ ‌they‌ ‌lived.‌ ‌

 ‌

Of‌ ‌course,‌ ‌the‌ ‌precondition‌ ‌here‌ ‌was‌ ‌that‌ ‌they‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌get‌ ‌

contaminated‌ ‌by‌ ‌energy‌ ‌radiation.‌ ‌

 ‌

Under‌ ‌energy‌ ‌radiation,‌ ‌lifespan‌ ‌would‌ ‌decrease‌ ‌accompanying‌ ‌

the‌ ‌contamination.‌ ‌The‌ ‌more‌ ‌contamination,‌ ‌the‌ ‌more‌ ‌severe‌ ‌the‌ ‌

decrease.‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌was‌ ‌just‌ ‌rescued,‌ ‌but‌ ‌his‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌power‌ ‌was‌ ‌

contaminated‌ ‌by‌ ‌energy‌ ‌radiation.‌ ‌With‌ ‌such‌ ‌a‌ ‌quick‌ ‌drop‌ ‌in‌ ‌

psychic‌ ‌power,‌ ‌how‌ ‌can‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌not‌ ‌worry?‌ ‌

 ‌

Before,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌had‌ ‌no‌ ‌interest‌ ‌in‌ ‌romantic‌ ‌relationships.‌ ‌

Living‌ ‌to‌ ‌35‌ ‌years‌ ‌old,‌ ‌he‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌even‌ ‌have‌ ‌any‌ ‌rumoured‌ ‌sex‌ ‌

scandals.‌ ‌Now‌ ‌his‌ ‌psychic‌ ‌power‌ ‌was‌ ‌contaminated,‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌

was‌ ‌worried‌ ‌that‌ ‌he‌ ‌would‌ ‌collapse‌ ‌after‌ ‌this‌ ‌setback,‌ ‌and‌ ‌be‌ ‌

unable‌ ‌to‌ ‌get‌ ‌back‌ ‌up‌ ‌again.‌ ‌

 ‌

Now‌ ‌that‌ ‌he‌ ‌had‌ ‌someone‌ ‌he‌ ‌liked,‌ ‌Madam‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌selfishly‌ ‌wished‌ ‌

her‌ ‌son‌ ‌would‌ ‌be‌ ‌happier.‌ ‌Even‌ ‌if‌ ‌he‌ ‌became‌ ‌a‌ ‌normal‌ ‌person‌ ‌in‌ ‌

the‌ ‌future,‌ ‌he‌ ‌can‌ ‌still‌ ‌spend‌ ‌his‌ ‌life‌ ‌normally.‌ ‌

 ‌

Seeing‌ ‌that‌ ‌his‌ ‌mother‌ ‌stopped‌ ‌replying,‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌put‌ ‌away‌ ‌

his‌ ‌comm‌ ‌and‌ ‌turned‌ ‌around.‌ ‌

 ‌

The‌ ‌video‌ ‌call‌ ‌on‌ ‌the‌ ‌door‌ ‌had‌ ‌closed‌ ‌some‌ ‌unknown‌ ‌time‌ ‌ago.‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌thought‌ ‌for‌ ‌a‌ ‌moment.‌ ‌Just‌ ‌as‌ ‌he‌ ‌raised‌ ‌his‌ ‌hand‌ ‌to‌ ‌press‌ ‌the‌ ‌

video‌ ‌comm‌ ‌again,‌ ‌the‌ ‌door‌ ‌suddenly‌ ‌opened,‌ ‌revealing‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌

Zhou’s‌ ‌nervous‌ ‌little‌ ‌face.‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌withdrew‌ ‌his‌ ‌hand‌ ‌and‌ ‌quietly‌ ‌looked‌ ‌at‌ ‌him:‌ ‌“Zhou‌ ‌

Zhou.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou’s‌ ‌face‌ ‌turned‌ ‌slightly‌ ‌red:‌ ‌“I…I’m‌ ‌not‌ ‌angry‌ ‌

anymore……”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“I’m‌ ‌very‌ ‌happy‌ ‌that‌ ‌you‌ ‌can‌ ‌forgive‌ ‌me,‌ ‌however‌ ‌

I‌ ‌still‌ ‌have‌ ‌something‌ ‌to‌ ‌say.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Head‌ ‌low,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌said:‌ ‌“Say‌ ‌what……”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“I‌ ‌said‌ ‌I‌ ‌don’t‌ ‌want‌ ‌to‌ ‌deceive‌ ‌you‌ ‌again.‌ ‌

Therefore,‌ ‌I‌ ‌have‌ ‌to‌ ‌confess‌ ‌to‌ ‌you.‌ ‌When‌ ‌I‌ ‌was‌ ‌speaking‌ ‌to‌ ‌my‌ ‌

mother,‌ ‌I‌ ‌purposely‌ ‌opened‌ ‌the‌ ‌video‌ ‌comm‌ ‌on‌ ‌the‌ ‌door.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌abruptly‌ ‌raised‌ ‌his‌ ‌head,‌ ‌pointing‌ ‌at‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌

“You……”‌ ‌

 ‌

So‌ ‌that‌ ‌was‌ ‌actually‌ ‌on‌ ‌purpose!‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌seized‌ ‌the‌ ‌opportunity‌ ‌to‌ ‌hold‌ ‌his‌ ‌hand,‌ ‌saying‌ ‌

softly:‌ ‌“But‌ ‌every‌ ‌word‌ ‌I‌ ‌said‌ ‌to‌ ‌my‌ ‌mother‌ ‌was‌ ‌the‌ ‌truth.”‌ ‌

 ‌

His‌ ‌handsome‌ ‌face‌ ‌was‌ ‌extremely‌ ‌serious.‌ ‌There‌ ‌was‌ ‌also‌ ‌an‌ ‌

emotion‌ ‌that‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌couldn’t‌ ‌understand‌ ‌in‌ ‌the‌ ‌depths‌ ‌of‌ ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun’s‌ ‌eyes.‌ ‌It‌ ‌strangely‌ ‌made‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou’s‌ ‌face‌ ‌feel‌ ‌

hot.‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“I’m‌ ‌sorry.‌ ‌Will‌ ‌you‌ ‌forgive‌ ‌me?”‌ ‌

 ‌

He‌ ‌had‌ ‌already‌ ‌said,‌ ‌if‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌ignored‌ ‌him,‌ ‌he‌ ‌would‌ ‌feel‌ ‌

terrible.‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌didn’t‌ ‌actually‌ ‌want‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌to‌ ‌feel‌ ‌terrible.‌ ‌

 ‌

With‌ ‌a‌ ‌reddened‌ ‌face,‌ ‌Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou‌ ‌said‌ ‌in‌ ‌a‌ ‌small‌ ‌voice:‌ ‌“Since‌ ‌

it’s‌ ‌the‌ ‌truth……‌ ‌very‌ ‌well.‌ ‌I’ll‌ ‌forgive‌ ‌you.”‌ ‌

 ‌

Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun:‌ ‌“Then‌ ‌can‌ ‌I‌ ‌still‌ ‌sleep‌ ‌together‌ ‌with‌ ‌you‌ ‌tonight?”‌ ‌

 ‌

Zhuang‌ ‌Zhou:‌ ‌“.......”‌ ‌

 ‌

After‌ ‌a‌ ‌long‌ ‌while,‌ ‌the‌ ‌little‌ ‌God‌ ‌of‌ ‌Wealth‌ ‌finally‌ ‌said:‌ ‌“I’m‌ ‌not‌ ‌

going‌ ‌into‌ ‌your‌ ‌dreams.”‌ ‌

 ‌

“Okay.”‌ ‌Wen‌ ‌XiaoYun‌ ‌said‌ ‌softly:‌ ‌“Then‌ ‌let‌ ‌me‌ ‌go‌ ‌into‌ ‌your‌ ‌

dreams.”‌ ‌

 ‌
