Chapter 403 - 199: Capturing a Little Bear
After catching a Yun Cuixi, Su Jiameng wanted to follow the thread and catch the other people too. Unfortunately, she had bad luck and didn’t find any useful information despite staking out for several days. However, a certain rumor lifted her spirits. Yun Cuixi, who controversially replaced Lieutenant General Li stationed at Qiming Star, would remain stationed here until Li You returned!
This meant that she wouldn’t have to worry about Yun Cuixi disappearing from her sight for the next few years!
The more dangerous something is, the safer it is right under your nose. As long as Yun Cuixi stayed on Qiming Star, no matter what he did, he couldn’t escape Changxi and Su Mo’s network surveillance, which was quite the advantage for Su Jiameng.
"The only thing that frustrates me is having to watch this pretentious guy bounce around within my sight for several years..." Su Jiameng leaned her chin on one hand, holding her sweet-smelling, soft Huaixi with the other. The little guy had become lively and couldn’t stay in her arms for long, always trying to climb up by grabbing her hair. "But, just endure it and it’ll pass."
Su Jiameng’s life was practically hell now. After getting up and washing in the morning, she had to undergo extreme training, continuing until she lay exhausted in the recovery chamber at four or five in the afternoon, slowly recovering. In the evening, she’d go to the virtual network’s Mecha Fighting Arena to vent in a few rounds, then wash up and sleep.
All day long, it was difficult even to talk to her two sons. And Su Mo, waving the flag of "ensuring the little young masters experience the atmosphere from a young age," had the two buns playing not far from her during training.
Su Jiameng really wanted to complain about this! Every time after extreme training, she was half-dead, lying on the ground unable to get up. How old were the two buns, always seeing their mom in such a messy and terrifying state, it could leave lasting childhood shadows! Obviously, Su Jiameng seemed to be overthinking because the two buns were gutsy little devils!~
"Mom... get up..." Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, more than a year of this hellish life has passed. The two buns were like fermenting dough, growing noticeably taller. But the brothers were being pampered with good food and drinks all year by Su Mo, making their weight quite worrisome. "It’s dinnertime."
"Stop bothering Mom, go find your brother to play." Su Jiameng had been lying dead on the ground for about ten minutes. Under the increasingly strict whip of the teaching system, she increasingly felt she had a masochistic tendency, oddly deriving pleasure from the abuse.
"Brother said the same thing... you’re bullying me..." Huaifeng was now three virtual years old, two and a half in age. But his physical attributes rivaled those of a 7 or 8-year-old from the Earth Era, even in intelligence. That’s how impressive children were in the Interstellar Future!
Su Jiameng wanted to bury her face and pretend she was blind and deaf!
Her two sons, she didn’t know who they took after, Huaifeng’s personality was increasingly lively and mischievous, like a runaway horse after going crazy, he often caused trouble and fully embraced his "Little Bear" nature. Just the other day, he even broke the window on the second floor.
Speaking of this, Su Jiameng couldn’t help having a toothache. Huaifeng accidentally broke one of her favorite mugs, and to cover his mistake, he also broke the window next to the mug. She couldn’t understand the logical connection between hiding the broken mug and breaking the glass until Su Mo explained it to her.
Actually, Huaifeng had a second part of the plan after his actions. He waited for his mom to ask how the mug broke, and he would blame it on their neighbor’s kid who loved kicking soccer balls... Get it? The neighbor’s kid loved kicking balls, shattered the window, and accidentally implicated the mug... This was the excuse the slightly dense Little Bear came up with!
"With this intelligence... you’d be crushed if you went outside, silly son!" Su Jiameng’s first reaction was to teach him to be straightforward rather than sneaky, and the second reaction was to give him a hearty smack on the forehead, "Who’d have a window shattered from the outside by a ball and the glass shards fall outside the window?"
Even if you want to fake it, be smart and smash the glass window from the outside, what does an internal ’explosion’ even mean?
