The Crazed Little Darling: Pampered by the Possesive Commander!-Chapter 379: Acting Cute

He looked up at Lu Zhiya, his intention to send her away was clear.

Lu Zhiya received the gaze from her son and stood up voluntarily. "You two have a good chat; I’ll go prepare food from other planets."

In the end, food still needs to be brought from the subsidiary planets. Lu Zhiya sighed in her heart, reluctantly accepting this fact.

After Lu Zhiya left, Lu Shinian activated privacy mode in the room.

He lowered his head and asked, "What’s going on?"

Su Ruan narrated what she had seen, and then concluded, "In short, it’s a poor little thing that got accidentally hurt."

Although the words "Evil Beast" sound terrifying, when you really interact with it, it’s not scary at all.

Of course, due to long-term wandering in the universe, the beast’s smell is really intense, especially when it opens its mouth; that smell... is definitely something Su Ruan couldn’t tolerate.

Lu Shinian seemed surprised by this, and after two seconds of silence, he slowly spoke, "That’s not a reason for it to abduct you."

"Moreover..." He looked at her steadily, "It says it wants revenge on you."

"Hasn’t it already succeeded?" Su Ruan said softly, "Abducting me is its revenge, right?"

"Besides, clearly, you caused the explosion." She huffed lightly, shifting the blame, "The one it truly wanted revenge on should be you."

Before Lu Shinian could say anything, she continued, "But since it worried you so much by abducting me, it’s also a kind of revenge on you."

"Furthermore, its egg is still with us, so we’re even now. You don’t need to do anything dangerous."

She said this because she was worried Lu Shinian might impulsively do something, which would be really troublesome later.

Lu Shinian understood her intentions and responded softly, "Okay."

"As long as it doesn’t hurt you, I won’t bother with it," he promised.

Su Ruan relaxed. "That’s more like it."

"Now that the baby is finally born, I can take a bit of a break." She patted her belly, "I don’t have to watch what I eat or carry such a big belly anymore."

Su Ruan’s pregnancy wasn’t particularly conspicuous, but carrying a belly much larger than usual, along with slight swelling of her legs due to pregnancy, made her very uncomfortable.

Although Lu Shinian would massage her every day, the feeling of being cautiously unable to fully control her body due to pregnancy sometimes made her anxious.

Luckily, the baby was finally born.

Thinking about it, Su Ruan’s eyes brightened slightly, she asked, "Now that the baby is born, can we return to the Federation?"

"The semester must be over by now, I’m not even sure if I can successfully change departments."

"Although I think Logistics Department is nice too, I still want to join the Mecha Combat Department."

"Do you think I can become a great Mecha Combat Master like you in the future?"

"No, no, you’re the First Commander."

"Will you command me in battle in the future?"

Su Ruan’s thoughts drifted away, her voice soft and coquettish.

Lu Shinian was gradually soothed by her voice, calming his restless heart.

He chuckled lightly, shook his head and said, "No."

"Why?" Su Ruan pursued.

"Because I’m the one who listens to Ruan Ruan. How could I ever order my dear Ruan Ruan around? Hmm?"

Su Ruan huffed lightly, "That’s at home, but it’s different outside." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"As Commander, you must distinguish between public and private matters."

"I can’t." Lu Shinian rested his head on Su Ruan’s shoulder, snuggled slightly, "I can’t maintain a commander’s rationality in front of Ruan Ruan."

"Like this, I’m not a qualified Commander."

"I’m only fit to be commanded by Ruan Ruan."

Su Ruan poked Lu Shinian’s shoulder, "Are you still the First Commander? How can you blur the lines between public and private like this!"

"No," Lu Shinian’s voice was low, "The moment I fell in love with Ruan Ruan, I was no longer fit to be the First Commander."

A commander must look at the bigger picture, prioritize the majority’s benefits.

But he couldn’t do it; the current him can no longer disregard Ruan Ruan for the greater picture.

Lu Shinian slowly lowered his gaze and spoke softly, "I’ll resign when we go back."

"How about taking a few years for a honeymoon with Ruan Ruan?"

He asked, "Haven’t we properly had our honeymoon?"

"Hmm." Su Ruan thought for a bit, then spoke, "But there are still many unresolved issues."

"The Federation’s Ancestral Stage, the situation over on Wood Peach Star, and the Empire..."

Countless issues surround them; since they’ve been involved in these factors, naturally, they can’t do nothing.

Lu Shinian sighed softly upon hearing this.

"Ruan Ruan does have a lot of concerns."

"When will you spare some concern for me, hmm?"

Su Ruan raised her eyebrow slightly, "How come I haven’t shown concern for you?"

"Look, I even found a way to convince the Evil Beast to release me back because I know you’re worried about me."

"I haven’t even asked or looked at the baby first; I spoke with you first, not even glancing at the baby."

Speaking of this, Su Ruan suddenly stood up, "I want to check on the baby."

"I’ll carry you." Lu Shinian scooped up Su Ruan directly, "Your body hasn’t fully recovered yet, don’t walk."

"For anything you need, I’ll carry you there."

Su Ruan wrapped her hands around his neck, obediently responding with a "Hmm."

After about ten minutes, Lu Shinian carried Su Ruan to the nursery.

Su Hanjing was taking care of the baby, accompanied by Cheng Yushu.

Cheng Yushu had no particular feelings about babies; the Insect Race has always been indifferent to familial bonds. Even after so many years with Su Hanjing, he gained a bit of human emotion, but most of those feelings were directed at Su Hanjing, not anyone else.

Even towards Su Ruan, his daughter, he only had the instinctual feeling from the Insect Race’s genes.

It was an uncontrollable resistance to Su Ruan’s delicious spiritual power.

Luckily, Su Ruan hadn’t released her spiritual power, so Cheng Yushu remained relatively normal when seeing her.

He nodded slightly, calling out.

"Ruan Ruan."

He completely followed his wife’s way of addressing her; as for what this form of address meant, he didn’t really care.

After calling out, Cheng Yushu turned his head back, staring intensely at Su Hanjing, as if all his focus was on her.

Su Hanjing was used to her husband’s gaze.

She hadn’t seen anyone more clingy than her husband—or rather, more clingy than an insect.

Su Hanjing had just lulled the baby to sleep. Seeing them arrive, she made a shushing gesture.
