After the presidential couple was punished, all evidence of their wrongdoings was publicly displayed online.
The star network erupted into another uproar, with various topics instantly surging to the top, dominating the trending searches.
Lu Wanqing sighed, thinking, "That's just how it is. What goes around comes around. The presidential couple's current predicament is entirely their own doing."
The holidays arrived in the blink of an eye, and many citizens in the interstellar era were excitedly planning their travels. Lu Wanqing saw news on the star network and suddenly realized she hadn't taken Xiao Yi out to play. She suddenly felt a desire to show Xiao Yi the outside world, perhaps a theme park.
Given Xiao Yi's status, had he ever been to a theme park before?
As Lu Wanqing pondered this question, she began to doubt. Marshal Zhong Li and Zhong Li Feiyu didn't seem like the type of people who would notice such trivial matters. If the child had never been to a real theme park since childhood, it would be too pitiful.
When picking up the child from school that afternoon, Lu Wanqing couldn't help but ask Xiao Yi, "Xiao Yi, do you have any plans for the upcoming week?"
Xiao Zhong Li Yi looked bewildered at her question and shook his head, "No."
"Then, did your dad ever take you out to play during past holidays?" Lu Wanqing asked again.
"No, we just stayed at home," Xiao Zhong Li Yi replied earnestly. He thought for a moment and added, "Dad likes to train. When we have holidays together, we always train in the training room."
Lu Wanqing: "..."
Lu Wanqing couldn't listen anymore. She stopped walking and looked down at the child. After a moment, she crouched down, hugged the child with concern, thinking this child was too pitiable.
Xiao Zhong Li Yi was a bit puzzled. Why was his Mommy suddenly hugging him? And Mommy's expression seemed a little strange.
After hugging him for a while, Lu Wanqing took a deep breath, adjusted her mood, and then released the child. She looked into his eyes and asked, "Xiao Yi, how about we don't stay at home this year?"
Xiao Zhong Li Yi's eyes widened slightly in surprise.
Seeing the child's dilated pupils, Lu Wanqing found it amusing. She couldn't help but pat the child's head again and said, "Xiao Yi, is there any place you'd like to go play?"
"Mommy saw on the star network that everyone has been discussing travel these past few days. Shall we go traveling together this year?"
Xiao Zhong Li Yi's eyes sparkled, but then he hesitated, "But will Dad and Grandpa agree?"
Too obedient!
And too heartbreaking!
Lu Wanqing couldn't help but raise her hand and vigorously rub the little one's head, comforting him, "Don't worry, Mommy will discuss it with them."
Xiao Zhong Li Yi's eyes immediately lit up with excitement, "Really? Then I want to go traveling! The children in kindergarten all go on trips with their parents and grandparents during the holidays!"
"Okay!" Lu Wanqing agreed, and seeing the child's excitement, her mood also lifted.
When Zhong Li Feiyu returned home from work, Lu Wanqing immediately told him about the travel plans. Zhong Li Feiyu was slightly surprised, "Traveling?"
"Yes," Lu Wanqing nodded and said seriously, "Xiao Yi has always stayed at home and doesn't seem to have gone out to play much. I don't think that's very good."
"Transportation in the interstellar era is so convenient. I actually think it's great to use holiday time to go out and play, and many people do travel, including Xiao Yi's classmates from kindergarten," Lu Wanqing added.
Zhong Li Feiyu looked at Xiao Zhong Li Yi.
Xiao Zhong Li Yi immediately became nervous. He looked at his father with trepidation. Would his father agree?
Zhong Li Feiyu was silent for a while, and finally said, "I might not have time..."
"There are still some matters to handle at the military headquarters," Zhong Li Feiyu hesitated.
Lu Wanqing was surprised, "Are you still working during the holidays?"
"Normally, I don't have to work, but this year is special. Many things happened recently, and there are still many matters to be dealt with," Zhong Li Feiyu explained.
Lu Wanqing didn't quite understand. The Marshal of the Fourth Legion was dead, and the presidential couple had been punished. What else needed to be handled?
However, perhaps military matters were not something an ordinary woman like her could understand.
"Then it's fine. I can take him myself," Lu Wanqing said with a smile, then resigned herself.
Actually, whether Zhong Li Feiyu went or not didn't matter much to her. She had time, and she felt that as an adult, she could take Xiao Yi out to play for a few days.
Zhong Li Feiyu was also taken aback. After a moment, he nodded, "That's acceptable."
Xiao Zhong Li Yi watched them discuss. Hearing his father agree, his eyes immediately lit up. The child sitting on the sofa couldn't help but kick his little legs, happy!
"Then, regarding the Marshal... can you go and talk to him?" Lu Wanqing thought and said.
Although she and Zhong Li Feiyu were Xiao Yi's parents, Marshal Zhong Li was Xiao Yi's grandfather and had always cared for Xiao Yi. Lu Wanqing felt that such an important matter should be discussed with Marshal Zhong Li.
"Okay," Zhong Li Feiyu quickly agreed.
Lu Wanqing immediately smiled and turned to look at Xiao Yi. She couldn't help but raise her hand and make a victory sign with her scissors gesture, happy!
Xiao Zhong Li Yi looked at his mother's bright smile and the strange gesture in her hand. He didn't understand what the gesture meant, but seeing his mother so happy, he couldn't help but raise his hand and imitate her, holding up his middle and index fingers, and felt very happy!
Zhong Li Feiyu watched them from the side. Seeing both mother and son so happy, he also felt good. It was just that thinking about their trip, he sighed again. He was truly busy, otherwise, he would also love to go with them.
"Then I'll start planning the itinerary now," Lu Wanqing said happily.
However, as she stood up, Lu Wanqing hesitated. She didn't know much about the interstellar era and didn't know where was fun.
As Lu Wanqing pondered, she opened her light brain and started searching. If there were famous attractions, they should be findable online, right?
As it turned out, Lu Wanqing found a very interesting place during her search – the ancient Earth film and television city!
The words "ancient Earth" particularly caught Lu Wanqing's attention. The moment she saw them, her gaze was drawn.
Lu Wanqing couldn't help but search for videos and pictures of the ancient Earth film and television city. As she looked, her heart began to race uncontrollably.
Wasn't this the common scenery of the 21st century?
"Mommy, what are you looking at?" Xiao Zhong Li Yi saw Lu Wanqing lost in thought while looking at the information and couldn't help but lean over to see.
Lu Wanqing finally came back to her senses slightly upon hearing the child's voice. She looked up at Xiao Yi and couldn't help but say, "Xiao Yi, how about we go to the ancient Earth film and television city?"
She knew that the things in the film and television city were fake, created by people in the interstellar era through archaeological simulation using data from ancient Earth times. But it looked so real, almost identical to the 21st century in her memory. She really wanted to see it.
