The Crazed Little Darling: Pampered by the Possesive Commander!-Chapter 278: An Absurd Notion in Her Mind

That was the destruction of a space, not the obliteration of a planet.

How on earth did Lu Shinian manage to do it?

Even if the Insect Queen’s crystal exploded at that instant, it couldn’t have achieved such an effect.

Cheng Qingye frowned slightly, even more puzzled.

Unfortunately, there was no one to answer his question at the moment.

If he wanted to know, he would have to stimulate Lu Shinian to recover his past life’s memories.

Hmm... he was working on that.

Cheng Qingye’s lips curled up slightly, curious about the answer.

"But..."

He mumbled again.

"If Lu Shinian recovers his past life memories, will he hurt his sister?"

After all, on the eve of destruction, he had arrogantly told Lu Shinian that he and his sister would kill him together.

Speaking of which, what exactly was his sister’s attitude towards Lu Shinian?

Cheng Qingye tried to recall but found that his memories in this area were pitifully few.

In both their lives, he and his sister had spent more time apart than together.

The timing of the Time Space Reversal happened to be after his sister had been taken away from Tianhe Star, and he had fallen into a coma due to the explosion of the Origin Space, so he couldn’t stop her from leaving Tianhe Star in either life, nor did he know how she got along with Lu Shinian.

Otherwise, maybe he should ask his older brothers.

Cheng Qingye thought, lightly tapping Dabai’s head with his fingertips, speaking softly, "Contact the big brother and second brother, ask them how our sister is getting along with Lu Shinian."

A small white dot flashed on Dabai’s head.

A screen popped up mid-air, displaying an interface identical to the one used by the Light Brain for communication.

With some operation, Dabai sent out two messages.

But since the distance between the Insect Domain and the Federation was vast, signal transmission would take some time. Plus, depending on how quickly the recipient could respond, it was estimated it would take about an hour.

Cheng Qingye’s long eyelashes drooped slightly, his eyes half-closed with an expression of indifference.

Time silently passed until the virtual screen in mid-air changed again.

A message popped up.

Dabai sensibly opened the message to find it was a voice message from Su Hu.

[Third brother, you finally contacted me! Hahaha! Although Lu Shinian is a bit of a bast**d, he’s quite good to our sister. I see she quite likes him too, so I approve of their marriage.

But I surely need to give Lu Shinian a hard time, humph, making me embarrass myself repeatedly back then. When our family reunites, he better make it up to us, hehe!

Where are you now, third brother? I’m currently at Tianhe Star; I really want to see what magic this star holds, that it could control our sister’s spiritual power.]

The sixty-second voice message was delivered in Su Hu’s rugged and wild voice.

Not long after, another message popped up.

This time, the message was from Su Heyuan.

He didn’t send a voice message, just two short lines.

[Fairly affectionate.]

[Third brother, nothing can stop our family from reuniting.]

Cheng Qingye’s gaze lingered on the last sentence, his expression lazy and lacking energy.

"It seems our sister really likes Lu Shinian."

"But what about Lu Shinian?"

If Lu Shinian loved his sister, why would he allow those low-level Insect Race to harm his sister in their past life?

It doesn’t quite make sense.

Cheng Qingye planned to test Lu Shinian again tonight.

The Spiritual Sea of Lu Shinian had already merged with the crystal of the former Insect Queen, and as a Companion King Worm, he could establish a certain spiritual power connection with the Queen.

Of course, this manifested by him being able to create some illusions within Lu Shinian’s Spiritual Sea.

To be clearer, he could create dreams for Lu Shinian.

As for whether Lu Shinian could break through these dreams, it depended on his utilization of spiritual power and the Queen Bug Crystal.

He was eagerly anticipating a surprise from Lu Shinian.

————

At Central Star, after Lu Shinian left for work as usual, Su Ruan inquired if anything had happened to him recently.

But whether it was Vice Wang and Qi Chen, who worked with Lu Shinian, or Aiers, who wasn’t very familiar with him, they all said nothing had happened to Lu Shinian in the past days.

Everything seemed quite normal.

So his only unusual reason was likely what Lu Shinian said—he had a nightmare.

Su Ruan sat at the bed’s edge, slightly crestfallen, muttering, "If only I could enter his dream to see."

That way, she might be able to comfort him in his dream.

However, that was just wishful thinking; after all, entering someone’s dream was plainly absurd.

Su Ruan sighed, gathering herself before getting to her tasks.

At night, Su Ruan entwined her spiritual power with Lu Shinian’s for a while before nestling in his embrace and falling asleep.

She slept deeply, feeling as if her consciousness was adrift in the air or sinking to the seabed. Amidst this drowsiness, a ray of light pierced through.

Following that glimmer, the scene before her suddenly changed.

In the palace amidst a mountain of corpses and ocean of blood, Lu Shinian sat high on the throne, while her third brother stood in the center of the great hall, gazing at him.

And she, just as in her past life, had only her soul floating in the air.

They couldn’t see her, just like the previous life.

For a moment, Su Ruan even thought she had returned to her past life, but when she pinched herself, it didn’t hurt at all.

So now... it was probably a dream.

Ever since she was with Lu Shinian, Su Ruan rarely dreamed about her past life. She didn’t expect to dream of it again tonight.

She floated cross-legged in the air, watching the two below.

It was Cheng Qingye who spoke first, "Lu Shinian, why didn’t you protect our sister?"

His voice was gentle, but his words were sharp.

Su Ruan listened to her third brother, momentarily taken aback.

Strangely, it seemed her third brother hadn’t asked that in the past life, why was this dream...?

While she pondered, Lu Shinian, seated on the throne, also spoke.

"Then where were you?"

Lu Shinian looked at Cheng Qingye below, feeling a sense of unfamiliarity.

He was attempting to reconstruct the truth of this entire dream: if Ruan Ruan really died, then how did she die, and why wasn’t he by her side?

Even if he wasn’t there, where was Su Hu? Where was Su Heyuan? Where was Cheng Qingye?

Were none of them there?

If that was the case, how desperate must Ruan Ruan have felt at that time.

Lu Shinian didn’t dare to think deeply about what happened to his Ruan Ruan back then. He feared that if he thought about it, he couldn’t resist keeping her confined in a room, never letting her leave.

That way, she would never get hurt.

He fixed his stare at the Cheng Qingye in the dream, eyes sharp with scrutiny.

Cheng Qingye met his gaze, the smile on his face fading considerably, pale brown pupils holding a faint light.

In mid-air, Su Ruan fell into deep thought.

This dream didn’t seem to be a memory from her past life.

That scene definitely didn’t occur in her past life, she was sure of it.

An absurd thought suddenly popped into her mind.
