Zhou Ling addressed them with a smile in his eyes, explaining, “This is General

Liao Jun’s son, Liao Nai.”

Upon hearing Liao Jun’s name, everyone present fell into silence. Even Gao Dian and Zhang Shuai, who had been causing a commotion earlier, ceased their activities. All eyes were fixed on the pink wolf cub that Liao Ning cradled.

Liao Nai felt uncomfortable being scrutinized by so many people. He sought refuge behind Liao Ning, revealing only a pair of clear eyes as he observed them.

Gao Dian loosened his grip on Zhang Shuai, allowing him to break free. With agility, Zhang Shuai approached Liao Nai in a few strides. He crouched down and gazed into the cub’s eyes.

“You bear a striking resemblance to General Liao.”

Zhang Shuai’s tone was familiar, as if he were discussing an old friend. This piqued Liao Nai’s curiosity about the connection between Zhang Shuai and his father. “Do you know my father?”

“Of course. When I was in the military academy, General Liao taught me a mecha class.” As Liao Jun and Zhang Shuai were mentioned, nostalgia gleamed in his eyes. “General Liao is an exceptional mecha designer. Moreover, he excels in operating mechas. None of us could surpass him during our time there!”

“Really?!” Upon hearing of his father’s formidable skills, the wolf cub’s eyes instantly lit up, filled with admiration for his father.

Zhang Shuai smiled and continued, “Absolutely. I still have a video of General Liao’s demonstrations and battles against the Al. Would you like to watch it with me? It’s saved on The Silver.’

Liao Nai rarely heard his father discuss his military life, so Zhang Shuai’s proposal intrigued him greatly. He yearned to understand his father better.

Despite his intense desire, Liao Nai refrained from agreeing right away. He glanced up at Liao Ning.

Apart from his father, his aunt treated him with utmost care. He had to heed her guidance.

Liao Ning had been attentively observing Liao Nai. When she noticed his genuine interest in watching Liao Jun’s video with Zhang Shuai, she nodded without hesitation, gently patting his head. “Go ahead. I’ll come find you later.”

“Alright!”

Upon Liao Ning’s agreement, Zhang Shuai eagerly attempted to hold Liao Nails hand, but the young cub evaded his touch.

Unaware that Liao Nai harbored trust issues towards strangers due to his mother’s influence, Zhang Shuai assumed it was merely a discomfort with being touched by unfamiliar individuals.

Zhang Shuai didn’t feel disheartened by Liao Nai’s reluctance to hold his hand. He smiled casually and said, “Then you need to stay close to me!”

Liao Nai nodded in response without uttering a word. He simply followed closely behind Zhang Shuai, matching his every step.

After Zhang Shuai departed with Liao Nai, Gao Dian breathed a sigh of relief and proceeded to introduce the other team members to Liao Ning.

“This guy with blue hair and blue eyes is Lan Yin. He handles intelligence work for our team.”

“Hello.” Liao Ning shifted her gaze to where Gao Dian pointed. Lan Yin possessed an exquisite beauty that made her wonder if he were disguised as a girl.

Lan Yin greeted her with a gentle smile. “Hello, Sister-in-law.”

Liao Ning hadn’t anticipated such a stark contrast between Lan Yin’s appearance, which exuded lethal allure, and his gentle demeanor. Even without extensive interaction, she could sense his inherent kindness.

Recognizing Liao Ning’s thoughts, Zhou Ling decided to unveil Lan Yin’s secret.

“Lan possesses human mermaid genes and excels at using disguises to gain others’ trust.”

Being exposed by his boss didn’t faze Lan Yin in the slightest. He continued to smile even more gently.

Enlightened by this revelation, Liao Ning praised him generously. “That’s truly impressive. No wonder he handles intelligence.”

Gao Dian nodded and introduced the final team member to her. “This is Quilin, who possesses the highest combat strength in our team. We all call him ‘Nuclear Explosion’

Resembling his nickname, Quilin sported fiery red hair, but his demeanor was contrasting. Liao Ning exchanged a casual greeting with him and referred to him as “sister-in-law.” She maintained her air of aloofness.

Once they boarded The Silver, Liao Ning leaned close to Zhou Ling and whispered, “Your team members are quite fascinating!”

Zhou Ling gazed affectionately at Liao Ning. “They’re all wonderful individuals whom I trust wholeheartedly.”

As soon as they arrived on The Silver, Liao Ning made her way to Zhang Shuai’s lounge. Observing Liao Nai engrossed in watching the video, she curiously stood behind him and joined in.

After a while, Liao Nai noticed her presence and obediently called out, “Aunt..”
