The Crazed Little Darling: Pampered by the Possesive Commander!-Chapter 129: Going to the Military Department with Lu Shinian
Of course, anything Su Ruan said wouldn’t be unlovable. This was Lu Shinian’s thought through a thick filter.
Naturally, Su Ruan couldn’t directly explain what "something dirty" was to Lu Shinian, so she took the initiative to change the subject, saying: "How’s the research on the Illusion Insects going?"
Such an obvious attempt to change the topic made Lu Shinian chuckle quietly. He didn’t expose her, just sincerely replied: "No results yet, Lin Tianxian is still researching."
Su Ruan nodded thoughtfully as if she had thought of something and asked: "Do you need me to cooperate with the Military Department?"
"Little White has been with me for many years, I know its temperament. Maybe my presence would help a little?"
Lu Shinian pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "Alright, I’ll take Ruan Ruan to the Military Department tomorrow."
He raised his hand to ruffle Su Ruan’s hair, his fingertips gently brushing over her slightly red earlobe, the intention in his eyes deepening.
Having Ruan Ruan stay under his watchful eye was much better than going to the Second World to battle Mechas with others.
It was a good opportunity to let Ruan Ruan see how dangerous Mechas could be, hoping she wouldn’t touch Mechas in the future.
And so, the matter was resolved.

On the other side, in a certain private box at the auction house on Star River Star.
The Second Master toyed with the Level 1 Pure Energy Stone Su Ruan had left behind in the alley, lost in thought.
This Pure Energy Stone was no different from the ones available on the market, the impurity content was zero.
Level 1 Energy Stones mostly looked the same, with nothing special in appearance.
But the Second Master always felt he was overlooking something, feeling that there was something amiss in this matter.
Although everything seemed to fall into place at the moment.
Yet the more everything seemed to fall into place, the more the Second Master felt he was definitely overlooking something.
He fiddled with the Pure Energy Stone in his hand, pushed up the glasses on his nose, and said softly: [Xiao Si.]
Xiao Si: [Master, I’m here~]
[Go probe 003, and let it track my identity.] The Second Master still gave this order.
Knowing his master had a plan in mind, Xiao Si quickly accepted the order and went to bother their third brother. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Of course, this disturbance couldn’t be too direct, it had to be subtle, or if the third brother caught on, there’d be a beating.
While Xiao Si went to bother 003, the Second Master also set off back to the Central Star.
Since he had to negotiate with Lu Shinian, it had to be done face to face.
The Second Master approached Lu Shinian on his own, while Su Hu, acting as the big brother, returned to Tianhe Star where Su Ruan used to live, investigating whether anything was overlooked when the Shen Family took her back.
The Shen Family’s retrieval had been too hasty and urgent at the time, they didn’t have time to react, plus they were preoccupied with matters, hence, didn’t take her back, otherwise, they wouldn’t be in such a passive position now.
They certainly wouldn’t have let the Shen Family take her away, nor would there have been the subsequent marriage between Su Ruan and Lu Shinian.
It’s still unclear if having his sister follow Lu Shinian is a good choice or a bad choice.
During Su Hu’s investigation, he discovered something else.
The Shen Family actually came to Tianhe Star to find traces of Su Ruan’s past life.
How could Su Hu let the Shen Family off so easily, so he captured them for questioning, only to find out that Shen Shi, the fake heiress, bore a grudge after being tricked by Su Ruan.
But with Lu Shinian’s protection on the Central Star, Shen Shi didn’t dare act recklessly, so she shifted her focus to Tianhe Star, where Su Ruan used to live.
They were ordered by Shen Shi to find out if Su Ruan’s past life was miserable or if there were any complicated relationships. If not, they could fabricate some rumors for the Shen Family to "accidentally" hear.
This was an attempt to ruin Su Ruan’s reputation with rumors. Such a vicious move, it’s hard to believe how malicious Shen Shi’s mind is.
After teaching the Shen Family a good lesson, Su Hu asked Ye Qing to pass this information to Ji Bai.
Once Ji Bai knew this, he would surely relay it to the Second Brother.
To prevent the Shen Family from returning to Tianhe Star, Su Hu decided to station himself on Tianhe Star.
He wanted to see who would dare to spread rumors about his little sister with the Lion Star Thief Group there!

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was the next day.
Early in the morning, Lu Shinian brought Su Ruan to the Third Legion.
After a brief inspection of the Third Legion, Lu Shinian led Su Ruan to the Special Medical Department.
Lin Tianxian hadn’t slept well in a long time, having been observing the Illusion Insect’s behavior for the past couple of days.
But aside from that singular abnormality the previous day, the Illusion Insect hadn’t shown any more unusual behavior.
This left Lin Tianxian uncertain about what was causing the Illusion Insect’s odd behavior.
When Lu Shinian and Su Ruan arrived, Lin Tianxian was trying to tease the Illusion Insect into reacting.
But the Illusion Insect just lay limp in the container, pretending to be a flat pancake.
It wasn’t until Su Ruan appeared at the doorway that the Illusion Insect seemed to pick up a signal and straightened up instantly.
The previously limp body stood rigid, the little pink spot on its forehead seemed even more pink.
Under the bright lights, the touch of pink against its snow-white body surprisingly gave off a hint of cuteness.
Realizing the words "cute" had popped into his mind, Lin Tianxian shook his head vigorously, muttering: "Impossible, impossible."
How could he think an Illusion Insect was cute?
It must be an illusion, an illusion!
No doubt this Illusion Insect was creating some kind of undetectable Illusion Realm!
This Illusion Insect was indeed extraordinary!
Lin Tianxian immediately focused, putting himself on high alert.
"How’s it going?" Lu Shinian’s voice came from behind him.
Lin Tianxian swiftly straightened up, turned around, and executed a perfect military salute to Lu Shinian.
Lu Shinian nodded slightly in acknowledgment and asked: "Have you discovered anything?"
Lin Tianxian hurriedly reported the Illusion Insect’s situation from the past two days.
Throughout, he completely ignored Su Ruan standing next to Lu Shinian, concentrating on his report.
Lu Shinian listened quietly, only speaking after Lin Tianxian finished, "Have you identified the cause of the anomaly?"
Lin Tianxian shook his head, "Sorry, Commander, I haven’t been able to ascertain that yet."
"Please give me some more time."
While they talked, the Illusion Insect in the special container had its entire body pressed against the container’s inner wall, bobbing its little head towards Su Ruan.
Su Ruan knew this was Little White’s way of showing happiness.
She secretly waved at it, greeting it.
The Illusion Insect was even happier, nodding its little head repeatedly.
Unexpectedly, Lin Tianxian suddenly turned around and saw the bobbing Illusion Insect.
Lin Tianxian: ???
