Chapter 322: Chapter 322: Reunion

Long Hao: “I don’t know what’s wrong, either. I just suddenly feel so dizzy, like the world is spinning.”

Seeing that he did look a little pale, Jiang Qin hurried into his room, took out her piano, and performed a soothing session just for him.

“It’s probably because of your Spirit Sea injury. Lie down, quickly.”

Long Hao only finally felt at ease when he saw Jiang Qin before him.

But he wasn’t exactly lying. His Spirit Sea did often ache with a dull pain and feel dizzy.

It was just much better compared to when his Riot Value was rising.

At least only his head hurt, not his body.

After all, back when his Riot Value was high, every time he changed into his beast form and back into his human form, his whole body would ache as if his bones were fracturing.

As the sound of the piano began to fill the air, Long Hao, who had tossed and turned all night without sleep, finally fell into a deep slumber.

The melodious tune continued…

Waiting outside the door, Cang Hong blinked, a little dumbfounded.

’His partner, who would usually stick to him for days after coming home, was seduced away in a single night?’

’Looks like he had a rival.’

Even the domineering Yun Xie would consciously stay away for a few days when one of the other partners who had been gone for a long time returned home.

’He never expected a domineering dragon to suddenly show up in the house!’

Cang Hong didn’t disturb Jiang Qin right away. He wasn’t fond of dealing with strangers and didn’t have much emotional intelligence, preferring to put on a cold, aloof expression and let those around him handle things.

But when it came to Jiang Qin, he always thought things through a little more.

So he waited until evening, when Jiang Qin and Long Hao came out for dinner, before leaning against her and acting cute.

The gazes of the two men locked, seemingly shooting sparks.

Fortunately, Jiang Qin still had some sense of propriety.

Although she was worried about Long Hao’s injuries, she was also concerned about Cang Hong and missed Shi Lichuan, who had been away for over two months, even more.

So no matter how clingy the two of them were, when night came, she still went to Shi Lichuan’s room to spend the night.

***

The next day, Yun Xie didn’t return home with Lan Yuyan until the afternoon, just as dusk was beginning to fall.

Seeing the Medical Pod being carried by a robot, Jiang Qin felt a wave of dizziness.

“Lan Yuyan, what happened to him???”

’Has it really reached the point where he can’t even leave a Medical Pod?’

Yun Xie didn’t deceive Jiang Qin. He told her everything: how they had hunted Fox Ear, how they had been poisoned, and the deal they made.

Seeing Jiang Qin’s eyes turn red, a savage fury instantly surged in Long Hao’s heart.

“I’ll go kill him.”

Before Jiang Qin could say anything, Yun Xie scolded, “Go do what? Is this the time to be causing more trouble?”

“What else then? Just let him live so freely?”

“He’s a male who’s been basically crippled. So what if he’s alive? As long as the news gets out, his enemies will naturally come looking for him.

But we can’t do anything now. We still have to wait for him to get the antidote.”

Long Hao was unconvinced. “What if he’s tricking us?”

Before Yun Xie could speak, Lan Yuyan said, “He won’t.”

He was the one who provided Yun Xie with the information about Fox Ear’s benefactor’s son.

As for how he knew, it was because he had witnessed the scene of Fox Ear’s benefactor dying for him and had heard him entrust his son to Fox Ear’s care.

Fox Ear’s benefactor died a brutal death, and when Fox Ear made his vow, the determination in his eyes couldn’t be faked.

“He probably also knows that since he’s crippled, he likely won’t live much longer. That’s why he seized this opportunity to make a deal with us.”

After all, Fox Ear isn’t someone who fears death. The only thing he cares about is his benefactor’s sole heir.

Seeing that everyone was against it, Long Hao could only sit down in a huff and drop the matter.

Yun Xie said, “Don’t worry, I’m not really pinning all my hopes on him either.

But the most important thing right now is Lan Yuyan, so we can’t touch him for the time being, lest we create more complications.”

Jiang Qin agreed.

“Yun Xie is right. Regardless of whether he can get it or not, it’s still a possibility. In any case, it’s an investment with no cost, so we can wait and see.”

This time, no one said anything.

Jiang Qin hurried to get Lan Yuyan settled, while Yuan Ling quietly returned to his basement workshop.

No one else’s gaze was on him, so they didn’t notice. Only Shi Lichuan and Yun Xie did.

His retreating figure looked a little lonely.

’But that had nothing to do with them. Males comforting each other? That’s just being melodramatic!’

’Compared to other chaotic families, theirs was already quite simple.’

’If he couldn’t learn to find his own place, he would only sink deeper into depression.’

However… it wasn’t until the next morning that Yun Xie realized he had misunderstood.

Because Yuan Ling produced a set of walking assistance devices that was a perfect fit for Lan Yuyan, and it was lighter, more form-fitting, and more agile than any sold on the market.

’So when he left by himself last night, it was to build this device!’

’Yun Xie felt he couldn’t be entirely blamed, though. The main reason was the desolate look on Yuan Ling’s face as he turned away, and how lonely his retreating figure looked as he walked down to the basement…’

***

Lan Yuyan had also never imagined that such a genius had joined their family.

When the device was fitted to his body, he felt no discomfort at all.

With the device’s assistance, he was able to stand up and walk around freely with great ease.

Jiang Qin’s eyes reddened again, out of both heartache and relief. “This is wonderful. Thank you, Yuan Ling.”

Yuan Ling shook his head with a gentle smile. “It’s nothing.”

“Thanks, brother,” Lan Yuyan also said with sincere gratitude.

It was only when everyone sat down that they realized this was the first time all of them had been together with Jiang Qin like this.

Yun Xie, Lan Yuyan, Shi Lichuan, Cang Hong, Long Hao, and Yuan Ling…

’Before she knew it, she was about to have six husbands.’

’She thought it was fine. She would still have one day off a week.’

For the next few days, everyone had a tacit understanding not to go out to work, instead staying home and being affectionate with each other.

Jiang Qin didn’t waste any time, either. Every morning and afternoon, she would play different instruments and songs to soothe her partners.

She also recorded every song and released them directly onto the Star Network.

Popular songs like “Dang,” “Rain Butterfly,” “Confidante,” “When You’re Lonely, Who Do You Think Of?,” and “Birthday Gift”… and many other pop songs were released one after another.

The entire network was howling with joy, and everyone felt like the New Year had come early.

Due to the recent tournaments and battles, the network barriers between the Federation, the Empire, and the Myriad Races had all been taken down.

After all, every citizen was paying close attention to the defense of the front lines.

In such a tense atmosphere, people’s demand for entertainment had also gradually increased.

So one could imagine how excited the entire network was when so many high-quality songs suddenly appeared.

They flocked to the music platform to leave comments:

[Jiang Qin is the one holding up the sky of the music world.]

[So this is how well the Federation people are eating. I’m jealous dT-Tb.]

[This is great. Besides when Jiang Qin was in the competition, it’s been a long time since she has released songs this frequently.]

[Does her inspiration really never run dry?]

[They’re so good. I love these kinds of songs that let you have a good cry after listening.

Otherwise, with so many things weighing on my mind lately, I feel like I was getting depressed.]
