Chereads / Star Meow Meow / Chapter 156 - If Only Someone Else…

Chapter 156 - If Only Someone Else…

Ren Shu did not know how long she had slept. She was awakened by the pain.

After the anesthesia wore off, she felt significant pain in her hands and legs.

Beads of sweat had formed on her forehead, and she opened her eyes somewhat dazedly, holding her throbbing hand up to her face.

"Shushu."

The door opened just then, and Ren Xiao entered carrying a cup of milk fruit juice.

"Father."

Her voice was weak as she called out, primarily due to her physical frailty.

Ren Xiao sat by the bedside, helping her to sit up, and then handed her the milk fruit juice to drink.

Ren Shu did not cry out in pain; he simply obediently drank it.

"I'll give you another dose of anesthesia."

Seeing the sweat on his daughter's brow and her pallid complexion, Ren Xiao's eyes reflected a touch of concern.

"No need."

She shook her head weakly in refusal. "Anesthesia can significantly slow down the recovery process." "I'm fine, Father." It's just a little painful, really.

Ren Xiao simply stroked her soft hair without saying anything.

It was a challenging day to get through, but the medication available in this world was quite effective. Even someone as fragile as her no longer felt as much pain the day after.

Her eldest brother had completely set aside his work to stay by her side, along with Grandfather.

The next day, Ren Qingran also came to change her bandages.

Ren Qingran gently applied a salve-like medication to her wounds.

"With this medication, a young lady like you won't be left with any scars, especially one as cute and beautiful as you."

Ren Shu smiled sheepishly at his words.

"Big brother, how long will it take for me to recover?"

She truly felt like a useless little thing, always getting injured. Her brothers, even when injured, were completely unaffected in their movements, but she was different.

Her elder brothers had to carry her up and down whenever she needed to move.

Ah, her felt toy had fallen onto the bed.

"Big brother Qingran, I'll go get something from my room."

"I'll carry you there."

Ren Shu quickly found the object she was looking for next to the pillow on the bed and beamed as she handed it to her cousin.

"This was made from the fur that my big brother brushed off." I want to give it to him.

She had originally planned to give it to her eldest brother at his company, but so many things had happened afterwards. Still, everyone was safe in the end.

Ren Qingran's gaze fell upon the little trinket, and his expression shifted slightly.

"When you're feeling better, brush some fur for me too, so I can have a little doll made by you."

Ren Shu nodded enthusiastically, as if she had been praised. "Okay!"

She finally got to give the felt toy to her eldest brother.

Although Ren Fengci complained that the toy's design and expression were utterly silly, he did not hesitate to accept the gift.

"If you think it's so stupid, then don't take it."

Ren He muttered disapprovingly at Ren Fengci's expression, which seemed to convey disdain but actually showed undisguised delight.

Ren Fengci: Hmph, his grandfather is just being sour and jealous!

The Ren household exuded tranquility, but outside, chaos had erupted.

The national website published the crimes committed by Representative Daniel and his wife. The citizens whose homes were destroyed were enraged.

Some individuals with short tempers even went to Representative Daniel's residence, intending to harm him.

But the Daniel family had already been arrested and would be judged and sentenced for all their crimes after the trial.

As for Representative Daniel's wife, they had followed that trail and arrested several spies.

Among other things, they had uncovered the locations of several rebel bases.

Almore and Ren Xiao cooperated without notifying anyone, leading the Third Army and the Imperial Knight Legion to those locations. They launched a devastating attack on the rebels before the rebels could react.

"What did you say?"

In the dimly lit private room, a man's angry, hoarse voice rang out.

"Three outposts have been destroyed." What about the documents? Were they able to destroy the documents?

In less than a month, he had not received any news on his end. The Emperor and Marshal Ren had actually destroyed three of their bases. At this critical juncture, had they gone mad?

"They came too suddenly, your Lordship." We didn't even get any warning, let alone us. Many of the documents could not be destroyed in time. We can only hope that they did not find too much.

"Useless!"

The man gritted his teeth, spitting out the two words before finally calming down.

"It seems they've really been provoked this time." Don't make any moves, or else you'll be caught by Almore's tail. And don't blame me for not being gracious.

"Understood."

On Planet F4199, after the bombardment had ceased, the starships of the Beast Empire descended.

Ren Xiao and Almore, wearing military boots, walked out. Their expressions were calm, devoid of any excess emotion as they surveyed the destroyed buildings and fallen "former kinsmen."

Almore held a gun in his hand. Despite being amidst the ruins, he was elegantly dressed, with his black hair tied back with a gold cord adorned with gems.

Ren Xiao's mood sank a little every time he glanced at that head.

Because in the past month, Almore had cycled through four different cords!

Of course, he knew who made those cords, but he was the only father Ren Shu had, which was just too much.

"This was the last base we were able to locate."

Almore walked over to a man dressed in white who appeared to be a researcher and bent down to snatch the documents the man was clinging to with all his might.

The man was not yet dead; he was still stubbornly trying to grab the documents back from Almore's shoes.

The Imperial Majesty lowered his gaze, his golden eyes carrying a tinge of sorrow and pity. He raised the gun in his hand, spoke a few words with an accent, and pulled the trigger.

"Bang."

Almore kicked the man aside and opened the file with his gloved hands.

"Sacrifice to the Dark Beast God, truly a collection of lifeless things." Marshal, please take a look at this for me. I'll go see if there are any more stragglers.

Almore smiled as he handed the file to Ren Xiao, the jeweled cord on his head swinging conspicuously.

"I wonder how Shu is doing now." It's been a month since I last saw her. I miss her.

The little lucky charm was so soft and cuddly, especially in her Star Beast cat form.

Ren Xiao's expression remained impassive as he looked at Almore. "Your Majesty, I think it would be best if you kept your distance from my daughter." "And that bracelet of yours…"

He paused, then said seriously, "I am very grateful for Your Majesty's affection for Shu." If it weren't for the holy light bracelet you gave her, she might have... But when we return, please take back that bracelet. "I will have a new protective amulet made for her."

Almore gave an awkward smile. "Marshal, you're being too distant." I'm Shu's friend, so I'll let her keep wearing that bracelet for now.

Afraid that Ren Xiao might continue to refuse, he quickly found an excuse to slip away.

"I'll go take a look over there."

Ren Xiao "..."

If it had been someone else, he would have simply thrown the person straight up into the sky.
