Chapter 99: Chapter 97: Interstellar Internet Celebrity Raising a Bun
"Dad, that Liang Feng’s reputation is not very good." Qin Zhong resisted Qin Xiang’s pressure but still couldn’t bear to see his beloved daughter suffer.
Qin Xiang looked at his only son with disappointment and said indifferently, "What does reputation matter? Qin Shu will be cherished and respected when she marries him. Besides, Liang Feng is the most talented among the younger generation of the Liang Family. Qin Shu will be the Lady of the Liang Family; what’s there to be dissatisfied about?"
"But..."
"There are no buts; the matter is decided like this." Qin Xiang didn’t even bother to ask Qin Shu’s opinion before leaving without any hesitation.
Qin Zhong and Ruan Ling looked worried. Qin Shu, disregarding her incapable parents, returned to her room and slammed the door shut.
The slamming of the door startled Ruan Ling, who looked at her son, hesitating to speak: "Xiao Kai..."
Qin Kai waved his hand and smiled gently, "Mom, you know, once Grandfather makes a decision, nobody can change it." It was precisely because of this that Ruan Ling worried even more. How did her exceptional daughter end up having to marry into the Liang Family?
Qin Kai couldn’t stand to see his mother in such a frail and sorrowful state and tried to console her: "Mom, you and Dad shouldn’t worry too much. Actually, Grandfather isn’t wrong. Although Liang Feng is a bit of a playboy, he is still the most outstanding amongst his generation in the Liang Family. Although the Liang Family’s overall strength in the Military Department isn’t as good as the Yun and Jiang Families, ever since Old Marshal Yun retired, the old Liang is the most likely candidate for the position of Marshal. With our family’s status, Sister marrying there not only secures her position but also benefits Grandfather’s election. It’s killing two birds with one stone; why are you so worried?"
"But the two kids don’t have feelings for each other; isn’t it inappropriate to rush the engagement?" Ruan Ling still had some worries.
Qin Kai helplessly replied, "Mom, did you and Dad have feelings for each other when you got married?"
This question stopped Ruan Ling in her tracks; it seemed that she and Qin Zhong were also a result of a marriage alliance between two families.
Qin Kai continued, "Mom, weren’t you and Dad strangers back then? Feelings come from getting along. Sister is so outstanding; which man wouldn’t like her? Just relax, I believe Liang Feng will also treat her well. Besides, even if the two don’t have feelings for each other, what could Liang Feng possibly do to Sister? With the Qin Family behind her, her position will always be secure, and no one would dare offend her. Must marriage only be about true love?"
Qin Kai shook his head, "How many true loves last until the end anyway? Don’t think that because Grandfather’s tone was harsh the marriage wouldn’t work. Think about it; better than the Liang Family are only the Yun and Jiang Families, but their political views have always clashed with ours. If Sister really had true love, that person’s achievements wouldn’t surpass Liang Feng’s in the future. Do you want Sister to lower her head to other women inferior to her in the future?"
After a detailed explanation from Qin Kai, Ruan Ling and Qin Zhong were convinced. After this discussion, the marriage didn’t seem too bad, but the key issue was that Qin Shu herself was not willing!
"Dad, Mom, just focus on preparing Sister’s dowry; I’ll handle her side of things, no problem." Hearing her son’s assurance, Qin Zhong and Ruan Ling were relieved. After all, Qin Kai had always been smart and capable since he was young, his words were very convincing.
Ye Qiu had no idea that her words online had such a serious impact on Qin Shu. If she knew, she would probably laugh out loud and say Qin Shu deserved it!
With the Qin Family no longer a problem, Ye Qiu entrusted Rong Chen to Su Qing’s care, and took Rong Xing to the Ore Star allocated to her by the Military Department. Everyone who owned a complete planet’s property rights could have their own guard team, and Ye Qiu prepared to arm herself.
Time hurried by, and four months blinked past. The troops from the Yun and Jiang families had mostly breakthrough to Level 2 Body Forging Technique. They decided to wait until after the election to launch an attack on Rebellion Star, while Ye Qiu’s guard team had also begun to take shape.
"Boss, are you really only taking ten people with you?" a sensuous woman in red asked with concern.
Ye Qiu smiled reassuringly, "I’m not going to start a rebellion. Besides, Capital Star doesn’t allow more ’bodyguards’ anyway."
"Then I’ll wait for your good news."
"Don’t worry, it’s just an investigation. Besides, I still have connections with the Yun Family and the Jiang Family; they won’t just stand by if anything happens." Ye Qiu assured them, repeatedly emphasizing that there would be no problems.
Four months ago, when Ye Qiu was recruiting for the Guard Team online, she accidentally found a comrade of Rong Yu who was the only survivor from his squad. She also learned that Rong Yu’s death might not have been as simple as it seemed. This time, she was taking people back to Capital Star to investigate this matter, determined to seek justice for Rong Yu and his innocent comrades who died in battle.
"Mom!" Rong Chen saw Ye Qiu from afar and sprinted towards her, then hugged her fiercely. Ye Qiu also lifted her eldest son. It had been over a month since their last meeting, and they missed each other dearly.
"Ah... ah..." Rong Xing hadn’t forgotten his older brother either, waving his little hands excitedly.
"Oh, our Rong Xing has become even cuter." Su Qing took Rong Xing, kissed him fiercely, and said to Ye Qiu, "You can stay a bit longer this time, right?"
"Yes, everything over there is arranged." Ye Qiu nodded. Hearing her affirmative tone, Rong Chen’s delicate little face brightened even more—after all, he was only a five-year-old child who, despite being very sensible, couldn’t bear to be away from his mom!
"Should we go to my place then?" Su Qing asked her.
Ye Qiu shook her head apologetically: "I brought a few people over, it would be inconvenient to go to your house now. I’ll visit you when I have time."
Su Qing expressed great regret but did not insist on keeping her. Now that Ye Qiu’s own strength had greatly increased, and she had her own power, she indeed no longer needed their family to ensure her and her two children’s safety.
Ye Qiu took her people back to her original home, while the others were arranged to stay in rented houses nearby.
"Ye Qiu is back on Capital Star?" In a luxurious room, Qin Shu dressed in exquisite attire spoke casually with someone on the video call.
"Yes, and this time she moved out from the Jiang Family and went back to her small house, but she brought a few ’bodyguards’," the person on the opposite side of the video responded respectfully.
"Is that so?" Qin Shu’s expression was very dangerous at the moment, and nobody knew what she was thinking.
Ye Qiu, I won’t be so careless this time. Just you wait and see!
Thinking this, Qin Shu sneered sarcastically. Oh, forced to get engaged, yet somehow ended up with real power in her hands, what is this!
