After The Breakup, I Became The Marshal’s Wife

 

Chapter 96

 

The matter of informing the Wu family could be put on hold, as for the moment, Shi Nian had something to ask the two insects.

“You have not tried to make contact with me in the latter stages.” Shi Nian: “Why?”

He had previously thought that they might have avoided him because they knew, through some means, that he was not easy to deal with. However, their reaction when he caught them earlier told him that they might not be aware of this.

The two zerg were back to not saying a word.

Shi Nian said ‘Oh’, “Is it because you thought you had a better plan, but didn’t expect the Bai family and the Wu family to be so unhelpful and failed?”

“You seem to prefer to let humans kill each other than to do it yourselves, even if you are implicitly helping the Wu family.”

“Who’s helping their stupid asses?”

“But then again, it’s fools that are easier to deal with. ”

Yes, so they’re bent on helping the Wu family get rid of the threat of Lu Bo Ting and then perhaps helping the Wu family get to the top.

In the process, the empire is bound to be in an uproar, and other countries may come to join in, so the whole interstellar world will not be at peace.

If you think about what will happen then, the more chaos there is, the better it will be for the Zerg.

If the Zerg then release the truth and say that it was the people’s infighting that killed their saviour Lu Bo Ting…

“Attacking people’s hearts and minds.”

Shi Nian sighed, “So that’s how it is.”

At that time, the more miserable the humans were, the more energy the zerg would receive and the stronger they would become.

In the end, they will fall under the control of the Zerg.

“You’re trapping us with words! You’re despicable! ” The two Zergs immediately shouted.

Shi Nian laughed, “You make it sound as if there is nothing you haven’t done before that isn’t despicable. You two alone couldn’t have led public opinion, including the time you spent in hiding and the protection you were given by others. ”

“Don’t stare at me. You don’t have to tell me. We’ll find out who it is sooner or later. ”

Xue Wan glanced at Xue Chi, who said, “I’ve been looking into it. I didn’t think it was related to the zerg before. But knowing that someone was stirring up trouble, how could I not check.”

But in reality, it was not that easy, and they could not even think of anyone who could have done it.

Apart from the Wu family and their lineage, there was no one else in the upper echelons of the empire who had the motivation to do so.

The other party was also very secretive, so they had not found out who it was even now.

When it came to this matter, Xue Chi could not wait to rush in and make the two zerg confess.

However, Shi Nian did not continue this topic. He even seemed to think he was done asking questions and walked out.

Xue Chi and Xue Wan were both stunned.

Not only the two of them, but the two zerg were also frozen.

“You’re not going to ask?”

“No.” Shi Nian said, “I’ve already finished asking what I needed to ask.”

The two Zerg were confused. Finished? Impossible!

However, it didn’t look like he was fooling them, because the man was really ready to leave, and even the door was open.

At that moment, one of the zerg suddenly asked, “Who are you?”

This was definitely not the original Shi Nian. If the original Shi Nian was really that capable, he should have captured them all in the first place.

Shi Nian looked back at them and smiled, “You were the first ones to find me, and now you’re asking who I am?”

“If it weren’t for you, would I be in this state?”

These two words actually refer to two different situations. One is the original owner’s, and the other is Shi Nian’s. Without the conspiracy of the Zerg, the original owner would not have died, and Shi Nian would not have been here.

When Shi Nian finished speaking, he stepped out and closed the door again.

Xue Chi immediately asked, “Why didn’t you continue to ask?”

Compared to them, the two zerg seemed very afraid of Shi Nian and actually talked.

However, Shi Nian said, “I can’t ask any more questions.”

“How is that possible?”

Shi Nian laughed at this and looked back at him. “What do you think of the intelligence of those two zerg?”

“Stupid as hell.” Xue Wan replied, “They easily gave away a lot of clues in their words. So it’s clear that as long as you let them speak……”

“It’s no use. All they can say is what has happened, what can’t be changed. ”

These two Zerg are unable to reveal what has not occurred or what must remain hidden.

This is a restraint on the soul.

Shi Nian didn’t notice it at first, but after interrogating them, he found that something was wrong.

In such a situation, even the most skilful master of words and the most powerful interrogation experts would be useless. Usually, the only way to break it is through a soul-searching technique, if you are stronger than the person who made the restraint.

However, once the soul-searching technique is completed, the person whose soul has been searched is often not only stupid, but also useless, so it is not a benign technique in the cultivation world.

Shi Nian is a divine beast, a phoenix, so how could he possibly know such an evil technique?

So it would be a waste of time and effort to try asking more questions.

“If you are unwilling, you can continue to ask. The zerg in human form have never been seen before, so feel free to study them. To me, their value is gone. You can do what you were originally prepared to do. ”

After saying that, he got on the aircraft, “I have to go back. If there is anything else, contact me on the light brain.”

Lu Bo Ting’s quantum beast had been pestering him lately, and wouldn’t let go of him even in his sleep. This time, it was the little Phoenix that coaxed him so he could go out, but if he went out for too long, it still wouldn’t work.

It seems that this guy recognizes him more than the phoenix.

Moreover, it is impossible for one to be far from the quantum beast. He is a little different in this respect, and his special nature should not be too obvious. So it was better to go and change back, so that he would not be discovered.

The moment he came back, Lu Bo Ting’s quantum beast immediately pounced on him.

Shi Nian: “……”

Sigh!

Some people look like they are serious on the outside, but on the inside…

Lu Bo Ting’s quantum beast was not very big, or at least it was very different from Shi Nian’s recent phoenix form. The dragon quantum beast was large, but he was still able to wrap himself around Shi Nian.

Of course, there is a long tail left trailing behind.

So when people say the Marshal’s quantum beast is wrapped around him, they’re thinking more like, “Look, the Marshal’s quantum beast is being dragged around by Mr. Shi again.

Shi Nian dragged the dragon quantum beast to take a look at Lu Bo Ting’s condition.

He was doing well.

Other people, even if they had had the medicine given by Shi Nian to nurture their spiritual sea, would not have survived such an overpowering boosting agent.

However, he was lucky enough to survive, and the damage to his mental sea was not too great.

Even though he has not woken up yet, he is lucky to be able to wake up without any after-effects from the incident.

As expected of a man who is favoured by Heaven.

If it were anyone else, even if they hadn’t died, the spiritual sea would have been in a state of confusion.

But Lu Bo Ting’s spiritual sea was fine, and some minor problems were solved by Shi Nian.

There are various medicines he poured in, and although he has not woken up yet, the spiritual sea has been calm. The clouds were quiet and the sea was still. There was no storm, or angry waves of anger.

There was a large lawn in the centre and a beautiful, clear lake at the side.

All of this meant that his spiritual sea was very calm and that the quantum beast should have been able to return under these circumstances.

But the dragon was still hanging out happily, probably because it was having fun and also because the spiritual sea was still healing and the quantum beast’s return would add to the burden here.

Shi Nian paid special attention to this place and applied more medicine there. It was almost better now, and only a shallow white mark could be seen.

This wa basically healed.

If this wound was not in the spiritual sea but somewhere else on his body, such as on his arm or leg, it would have been completely healed by now.

No wonder there are mountains, greenery and a lake now, compared to the empty state when he first probed in.

He will probably awakened when there are trees on the hills, flowers in the grass, and lotuses blooming in the lake.

From a distance, Shi Nian could see the trees on the hill starting to branch out, and some small wild flowers were preparing to bloom. Shi Nian muttered, “It seems that if he doesn’t wake up today, it should be tomorrow.”

He was about to go out when he saw another change in the clearing next to him.

First, there was a cage. It was a golden cage, and then a canary gradually appeared in it. After a while, the canary became a person, and then turned back into a canary.

It was brief, but how could Shi Nian not know what he looked like?

That was him, wasn’t it?

Well, you don’t have anything good in your head, thinking about cages all the time.

When he withdrew his consciousness , without further ado, he transformed the bed that was surrounded by a cage on all sides and added a few thick pillars made of gold thread to the railing above.

You’d better live in the cage yourself.

With a twinkle in his eye, Shi Nian had another idea.

He first replaced the back wall in the room and then called Xue Chi to give him some instructions.

On the opposite hand, Adjutant Xue looked embarrassed: “Mr. Shi, do you really…. want this?”

Shi Nian nodded, “Yes.”

What else could Adjutant Xue Chi do? He could only pray that the Marshal doesn’t put this on his head when he wakes up.

He wasn’t the one who made the decision to add this clause to the contract, was he?

Meanwhile, Shi Nian pulled the dragon quantum beast off his body and stuffed it into the cage with Lu Bo Ting, laughing at the way the IQ of the quantum beast had dropped so much because its owner was unconscious that it didn’t know how to get out.

When he came downstairs, he saw Mrs. Lu clicking around on her light brain. Since it was not a chat channel, there was no privacy mode. Shi Nian took a quick glance and found that she was on a website.

It was a public service website, and as mentioned on Star Network, Mrs. Lu was the one who set it up.

In other words, she is not in charge at all times. She just takes the money and keeps an eye on where it’s going, making sure it’s all there, and then someone else does the rest.

It was mainly used to pay attention to the living state of the marginal planets. The original owner had been on Edge Star before, and he knew what it was like there, and it was not good.

After thinking about it, he decided to call in some money to help out.

When he told Madam Lu about this, she was happy and said, “That’s good, the money is just sitting there, why not take some of it and help some people?”

She had never been short of money since she was a child, and she was generous in this regard. Otherwise, she would not have given ten million coins to Shi Nian when they first met.

She happened to be reading about this area, so she told him about what she had been doing.

When he heard it, he felt it was a little familiar. It seemed that after the death of the original owner’s mother, the family didn’t have much savings, and even after the funeral, the original owner was still young and the financial situation was really bad, so he received similar donations.

However, the donor did not disclose their name, but only said that it was a donation from a kind-hearted organization.

This feels similar to what Mrs. Lu said.

Mrs. Lu also said, “I have a lot of money anyway, so I have nothing to do except buy clothes and do my hair. I can’t say that the Lu family has been very generous in raising their army, but Lu Bo Ting doesn’t want my money. So I decided to use it for something else. There’s no need to let the beneficiaries know it’s me, or they’ll be easily branded as the “Lu family.”

It’s usually nothing, but if they happen to be involved in an industry or with people who don’t get along with the Lu in the future, there may be some repercussions.

What’s more, some people on the Star network may say that the Lu family is buying people’s hearts, or they may inadvertently bring the beneficiaries into the picture.

Some people have a hard enough time just surviving, and a seemingly minor psychological burden can sometimes add unimaginable pressure.”

“But there’s a record of it, isn’t there?” Shi Nian asked.

“Of course there is!” Mrs. Lu said, “There must be a clear record of where the money has gone.”

Shi Nian thought about it and searched for the name of the original owner. As it turned out, he had collected money for two years.

After two years, the original owner gradually got used to living on his own. His academic performance was getting better, and he was able to get scholarships and so on. He was also old enough to take up part-time jobs, so he stopped taking the money.

Shi Nian looked upstairs.

Mrs. Lu: “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing.”

Shi Nian thought, “I just didn’t expect it.”

If Mrs. Lu had the list here, it would be easy for Lu Bo Ting to check it out. If they had done a check on the original owner, they would have been able to find out that he had been their subsidy for two years. The original owner didn’t know who it was, but it wasn’t difficult for Lu Bo Ting’s people to find out.

However, when the contract was signed that day, Lu Bo Ting did not mention anything about it.

Mrs. Lu also looked upstairs and was a little worried, “I don’t know how long it will take before he wakes up.”

“Just two days!” Shi Nian said.

Mrs Lu was happy when she heard that and looked at the invitation on the table and immediately said, “Then I won’t go, I’ll wait for my son to wake up.”

Shi Nian: “……”

Mrs. Lu: “What’s wrong?”

“……” Shi Nian coughed dryly, “I’ve put him in a cage. He won’t be able to come down for a while even when he wakes up.”

Mrs. Lu: “….”

“Isn’t it made of thread, and it’s not a hard material? I can pull it apart with a little effort.”

“Oh, I’ve just refined it again, you can’t pull it off easily now.”

And that’s not just any thread. That thread can’t be cut with scissors. Especially with so many strands braided together. And the braid is so thick that it is no easier to break than some steel or something.

“Has he upset you again?”

Mrs. Lu wondered. “That’s not right, he’s still in a coma, isn’t he? What did the quantum beast do again? ”

“Nothing.”

Shi Nian was too embarrassed to say that your son wanted to put me in the cage, so he got up quickly and said, “If you’re not going, I’ll go and see for myself.”

The invitation was for the event on the main star, and it was inviting Madam Lu, but she had been unsure about going along.

They were originally going together, but now that Madam Lu was not going, Shi Nian was willing to go.

He didn’t want to stay here any longer to discuss matters of cages and people in cages.
