Xiao Zhong Liyi, holding a sense of curiosity, walked into the crowd and approached the light screen. Then he saw it too – it was Mommy!
Just now, while training in the training room, Xiao Zhong Liyi had found it very strenuous. Yet, now, seeing Mommy training in the training room through the light screen, his heart began to race.
Xiao Zhong Liyi's gaze could hardly move away from the light screen. Facing the Zerg, there wasn't a trace of fear on Mommy's face. Every time she raised the weapon in her hand, it was decisive and swift.
For Xiao Zhong Liyi, in the training room, physical fitness and reaction speed were important, but the most crucial element was mindset. Facing the Zerg, the greatest fear to overcome was the psychological fear.
Xiao Zhong Liyi trained every day, and he was also working hard to overcome his inner fears. He had always believed he was doing well, improving every day, doing better than other children his age in the military dependents' district. But now, seeing Mommy as if she didn't take the Zerg seriously at all, he suddenly felt, was he overthinking things?
Perhaps the Zerg weren't that terrifying?
He could be unafraid.
Just like Mommy, not afraid of the Zerg at all!
As Xiao Zhong Liyi stared intently at the light screen, Zhong Lifi Yu also took a moment to glance sideways. He noticed that Xiao Yi's light screen had gone dark. He froze for a moment, then lowered his gaze and saw the child standing beside him.
Zhong Lifi Yu did not disturb Xiao Zhong Liyi's focus on watching Lu Wanqing's training. He quietly walked behind Xiao Zhong Liyi, protecting him, and then watched Lu Wanqing's training with the child.
Lu Wanqing's physical stamina was indeed too poor. After clearing the forty-third level, she truly couldn't run anymore. Her legs were sore, and she felt exhausted.
She glanced at her light brain and noticed it was getting late. Xiao Yi should have come out of the training room by now. She turned to the control room and pressed the stop button.
The door of the training room opened. Lu Wanqing looked up and out. But with that glance, she was stunned once again.
Although this scene was not the first time, after a few days, she thought everyone wouldn't be staring at her training like they were in the past few days. She didn't expect so many people to be outside the door today when she was training.
And Xiao Zhong Liyi!
The child stood beside his father, watching her all along, his eyes shining brightly.
Looking at the child, Lu Wanqing couldn't help but smile as she stepped out of the training room.
What a beautiful scene this was!
But neither Lu Wanqing nor Zhong Lifi Yu noticed that amidst the crowd, someone quietly recorded everything that happened that evening and forwarded it using their light brain.
*
The Presidential Palace.
The President's wife, Lina, her light brain vibrated slightly. Someone had sent a message.
The President's wife did not check the message immediately. Instead, she turned and went upstairs. It wasn't until she entered the study that she opened her light brain to check the message.
It was a video.
Lina opened the video without hesitation.
In the study, a white light shot out from Lina's light brain, and in the next second, the study was instantly projected with a video.
Lina watched the video, her brows furrowing tighter and tighter. Especially when the video reached its end, with Lu Wanqing walking out of the training room with a smile, her entire mind went blank.
Lina couldn't figure it out, nor could she understand why there would be such a woman in this world?
Why wasn't Lu Wanqing afraid of the Zerg?
Lina couldn't help but replay the video. However, the more she watched, the more uneasy Lina felt.
If Lu Wanqing was such a woman, completely unafraid of the Zerg, she suddenly began to understand why Zhong Lifi Yu liked her.
But…
If Zhong Lifi Yu liked Lu Wanqing and wanted to marry her, what about her Yan Yan?
What about the alliance between the Presidential Palace and the Seventh Legion?
Lina watched the video repeatedly three times. When she finally closed the projection, her hands were trembling slightly.
Lina stood in the room for a while, then quickly opened her light brain again and called her daughter, Song Yan.
The call was quickly connected, and Song Yan's projection appeared in the study.
"Mother?" Song Yan looked at Lina, confused.
Lina looked at Song Yan and quickly asked, "Yan Yan, where are you now?"
Song Yan replied, "I'm out."
"Come back for a while, Mom has something to tell you," Lina urged.
Song Yan's response was, "???"
"Hurry back, Mom has something very important to tell you, something related to the arranged marriage," Lina said sternly.
Upon hearing "arranged marriage," Song Yan's expression also changed. She hesitated for a second, then agreed, "Okay."
In about ten minutes, Song Yan returned. She was anxious and went straight upstairs as soon as she got home.
In the study, Lina stood up when she saw Song Yan return.
Song Yan looked at her mother, her heart also beating fast. She had a feeling of great unease.
"Mom, what's wrong?" Song Yan asked nervously, looking at her mother.
Lina glanced outside, then walked over and closed the study door.
"Mom?" Song Yan was even more confused. What was going on with her mother?
Lina turned back. She thought for a moment, then lowered her head and opened her light brain, re-projecting the video she had just watched.
Song Yan didn't understand, but she still watched the video. Soon, her expression turned grim. It was Lu Wanqing!
It was Lu Wanqing training in the training room. Fighting the Zerg was so terrifying, yet in the training room, Lu Wanqing seemed to disregard the Zerg completely. Killing Zerg was as simple as slicing vegetables, effortless. Each move, each stroke, was clean and decisive. The people in the training hall were all captivated, many watching Lu Wanqing's training on the light screens.
Zhong Lifi Yu and Xiao Zhong Liyi also stood in front of the light screen. Everyone was watching Lu Wanqing's training. Even through the video, Song Yan could feel their happiness.
At the end of the video, Lu Wanqing walked out of the training room with a smile. Outside the training room, Zhong Lifi Yu looked at Lu Wanqing with deep admiration in his eyes.
The video ended. Lina turned off the projection and took a deep breath. She said earnestly, "Yan Yan, did you go to see Lu Wanqing today? How did it go?"
It was better not to mention it, but as soon as it was brought up, Song Yan's face turned ugly.
"She refused to agree," Song Yan said with a grim expression.
Lina looked down at her light brain, then at Song Yan. She said sternly, "This is something Mother did not foresee."
Lina took a deep breath as she spoke, then said, "Yan Yan, I'm sorry. Mother didn't know that Lu Wanqing was so... She's actually not afraid of the Zerg at all." 138 Reading Network
"Perhaps Lu Wanqing did it intentionally. Before going to the Zhong Liyi family, she might have practiced in advance, her goal being to gain Zhong Lifi Yu's favor and then marry him," Lina speculated.
"Then what should we do?" Song Yan asked, anxious.
Lina's expression was serious.
Song Yan hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but add, "Mom, when I was talking to Lu Wanqing today, she said that Admiral Feiyu told her that the Admiral didn't want an arranged marriage." In other words, Admiral Feiyu didn't want to marry her.
Lina's face darkened. She said unhappily, "Lu Wanqing told you this directly?"
Song Yan nodded, "Yes."
