Not only a miniature leather bag, but also several sets of specially tailored small school uniforms, along with matching white cotton socks and small leather shoes, were prepared quite completely.
“So small, my god, look!! I can hold a whole set in one hand!”
Qiu Yiming curiously took a set of kindergarten autumn formal wear from Leihman’s hand. It just barely covered his entire palm, and the tiny little brooch was also sparkling.
For a beast, these small and exquisite little objects in front of him were unexpectedly novel and interesting!!!
When he enrolled, because he grew too fast, he was always among the new students who had to specially get the largest-sized uniform. Unexpectedly! There are still such small clothes now!!!
“But why are there so many sets…”
Seeing this, Qiu Qiu also landed on his second brother’s wrist, curiously looking down at the small formal wear.
Isn’t there only one set of school uniform?
At that time, the principal’s little nephew, Yodel, was able to go to school, and all the children in the kindergarten envied his blue and white uniform.
Yodel also treasured his beautiful uniform very much; no one was even allowed to touch it, only look at it from a distance.
“And, why is it so beautiful?”
He himself didn’t dare to wear it.
Half-crouching, Qiu Qiu carefully reached out and touched the small diamond brooch, gently praising it.
Why did he feel that this school uniform was even better-looking than Yodel’s back then? How strange.
Clearly, everyone had unanimously agreed that Yodel’s uniform was the best-looking outfit in the entire interstellar.
“Young Master, this is just the autumn formal wear. The kindergarten requires everyone to dress uniformly when there are events. For regular days, there’s this set of autumn daily school uniform, and of course, there will also be a series of summer clothes… uh, Second Young Master?”
Leihman explained with a smile, unconsciously softening his voice, but then looked at Qiu Yiming in surprise.
Sometime without him noticing, Qiu Yiming had suddenly propped his chin up with his other hand, not saying a word. Instead, he was smiling mysteriously, even his tail had come out, wagging back and forth with excitement that was visible to the naked eye.
“Yeah… my brother looks good in anything. I suggest buying more, buying a few warehouses, so he can change every day…”
Ahhh, this subtle weight on my wrist!!! Help!
This wonderful feeling of having my brother squatting on my wrist!!!
Leihman: ???
Qiu Qiu: QAQ?
“What nonsense are you thinking again, put your tail away quickly!”
Qiu Chongshan, unable to bear it any longer, ruffled Qiu Yiming’s hair for his irrelevant answer, causing Qiu Yiming to cover the back of his head and almost fall onto the table, barely managing to steady his wrist.
“Damn it! Dad, what are you doing!? Little brother is still on my hand!!”
“Ah—”
Qiu Qiu, who was originally squatting on Qiu Yiming’s wrist, instantly panicked and almost swung off with his wrist, tightly hugging the wrist and hanging in mid-air, even his wings shrinking nervously.
“…Uh, son[mfn]崽儿 (zǎi’ér – darling/son)[/mfn], Dad didn’t mean to!”
Qiu Chongshan, who had already slapped his second son hard, looked at this scene awkwardly, having forgotten that his action of hitting the second son was too forceful, leading to a chain reaction.
“It’s okay…”
Qiu Qiu, his face flushed, flew up from his second brother’s wrist and landed back in his palm, finally letting out a breath of relief.
“Dad, honestly… it’s just a tail.”
Tch, Dad clearly showed his own tail when little brother hatched, but now he’s not allowing me to show mine… double standard!
Seeing that his brother was safe, Qiu Yiming silently grumbled a few times in his heart, trying to retract his tail.
“Is it that time of the month again? Be more careful, school starts for you soon too, don’t cause any trouble.”
Qiu Jingyu, who was flipping through the admission guide on the side, raised his eyes and glanced at Qiu Yiming not far away, who uncontrollably and subconsciously showed signs of his beast form.
“Ah, it does seem to be that time again, troublesome.”
Qiu Yiming scratched his head, thought for a moment, and replied in an undertone, immediately appearing a bit impatient.
“Almost there, Second Young Master is indeed due in these few days.”
Leihman recalled his Second Young Master’s dates and nodded solemnly.
…?
Only Qiu Qiu on the side looked at everyone present blankly, a trace of confusion sliding across his eyes.
“What time is it again?”
【It should be the spiritual power surge period from the original book’s setting.】
【In the original book’s plot, your second brother seemed to accidentally kill the young son of an important official who was extremely close to the Prince’s Mansion [mfn]府 (fǔ – mansion/residence)[/mfn] because of this, directly leading to the breakdown of the alliance relationship with the Prince’s Mansion.】
The system silently added.
Moreover, this level of evil incident could not escape the sanctions of interstellar law at all, and for the eldest brother Qiu Jingyu, whose power was entirely in the parliament, it was undoubtedly a blow and a constraint.
After all, no matter what reaction or handling method the elder brother Qiu Jingyu made, he would inevitably trigger a series of public opinion reactions.
And watching his younger brother being arrested and sentenced, all of which even required Qiu Jingyu, as the Speaker of the Parliament, to personally sign the effective judgment order, was a climax plot involving the villain in the original book.
This matter can also be said to be the initial starting point for the gradual demise of this powerful villain in the later stages.
!
Just as Qiu Qiu widened his eyes, Leihman also explained,
“Young Master, this is the spiritual power surge period. Powerful adult beasts have a fixed surge period every month, and the stronger they are, the more pronounced it is.”
And the Second Young Master is the most thoroughly awakened one in the family, so his monthly symptoms are naturally the strongest.
Qiu Yiming snorted softly upon hearing this, nonchalantly touching his ear.
No way, who asked being too strong to also be a kind of sin~
“Last time you collapsed the school’s combat training room and paid a considerable amount of compensation. If something happens again this time, it will be directly deducted from your personal account.”
In response, Qiu Jingyu leisurely took a sip of tea, glancing at Qiu Yiming beside him who was still nonchalant and even a bit smug.
The words he spoke coldly, however, easily and instantly pricked Qiu Yiming’s lion’s tail.
!!??
“Hey, hey, hey, is this my fault??? It’s clearly those guys who are too weak, so annoying.”
Qiu Yiming had always disliked this.
What he disliked wasn’t the surge period itself, but rather that during the surge period, he had to be extra careful to control his power and temper, unable to act recklessly and do whatever he wanted.
It was like a giant in Lilliput[mfn] an imaginary island in Jonathan Swift’s Gulliver’s Travels, populated by tiny people, each about six inches tall[/mfn]; a slight carelessness could cause a pile of irreversible destructive consequences.
What a giant kicks away as a small stone might very well be a house for the little people.
Leihman, however, looked at his Second Young Master with worry.
The originally hard metal decorative ornaments on the table were now being kneaded into various shapes by the Second Young Master in his hands, like he was playing with clay to vent his frustration.
It seemed that as the Second Young Master entered his prime day by day, the influence of his spiritual power was also becoming more and more serious.
Although increased combat power was a good thing, if it wasn’t on the battlefield but back at school on the Imperial Star, it would inevitably be somewhat troublesome.
“Brother! Be, be careful, you absolutely can’t get angry…!”
Just at this moment, however, the little fellow on his wrist flew worriedly in front of Qiu Yiming, his light purple eyes looking over with concern.
The soft voice was clearly not loud at all, but it instantly made Qiu Yiming stop the movements of his hands.
Looking at his younger brother in front of him, Qiu Yiming unconsciously coughed a few times.
Silently lowering his eyes, he squeezed the lump of metal in his hand again, which had already lost its original shape. Finally, he directly kneaded it into the shape of a pair of crude little wings and placed it back on the table.
“Got it, your brother is so powerful, controlling it is a piece of cake.”
Rarely looking away from his younger brother, Qiu Yiming crossed his legs and explained obediently with a bit of nonchalance.
However, the next second, Qiu Qiu quickly flew back to the table, directly looking up and meeting his second brother’s eyes, not giving Qiu Yiming, this big lion, any chance to avoid his gaze.
“It’s not a joke, you absolutely can’t lose your temper, you have to take care of your classmates, Brother!”
He gently and softly instructed, a slight frown on his face carrying a hint of seriousness that couldn’t be ignored.
Qiu Yiming looked at his younger brother in front of him, inexplicably glanced around at everyone, then looked down at Qiu Qiu again, his golden lion tail unconsciously reappearing.
“Alright, alright!!! I promise you, hmph, then as a trade, will you give Second Brother a kiss?” 030
Aiya, little brother has been hatched for so long, and this big brother hasn’t even gotten a kiss yet~ So tempting!
Qiu Yiming surrendered on the spot with a subtle expression, only to add a soft, grumbling remark while his lion’s tail wagged, instantly causing everyone to stare intently.
Even Jin Lin, who hadn’t paid attention to this family’s bickering from not far away, suddenly opened his eyes and looked over.
…
…………
“What are you all doing, why are you all looking at me???”
Even the usually unruly Qiu Yiming felt his scalp tingle under everyone’s gaze, and he slammed the table loudly, trying to cover up his guilty conscience.
“Can’t I even kiss my own brother!? Why is everyone looking at me!?”
His golden lion tail was held high, clearly showing a guilty expression of trying to justify himself with a soft mumble.
“Dream on!! Qiu Yiming, I’m warning you, if you dare, you little brat—”
Qiu Chongshan slammed the table back with ten times the force, causing the vase on it to tremble and almost fall, angrily trying to warn this kid Qiu Yiming.
This old father of his hadn’t even kissed his own zai’er[mfn]崽儿 (zǎi’ér – darling/son)[/mfn] yet!!!
However, in the next second, the little angel on the table fluttered his wings and, without any hesitation in front of everyone, gently kissed Qiu Yiming’s cheek.
“Second Brother, be careful, don’t bully your classmates.”
He instructed with a slightly flushed face, even wanting to shyly fold his wings to cover himself, but still looked at Qiu Yiming earnestly.
“It’s already exchanged, no take-backs.”
Letting the transmigrated self be the villain was enough.
Second Brother had to grow up happily and seriously, becoming the most powerful big lion.
The little fellow’s voice was soft, but it revealed an extremely genuine worry and care.
Under a blanket of silence—
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“Ahhhhhhh—my god, Brother will agree to anything you say!!! Isn’t it just not bullying classmates and controlling my temper??? That’s easy!!”
“I declare, from this moment on! Your brother is the twenty-four filial piety good student of the whole school!!!”
Amidst the silence of everyone who hadn’t yet reacted, Qiu Yiming directly slammed the table and stood up, indicating absolute agreement!!!
His lion tail couldn’t wait to turn into a propeller!
Damn it!! He got kissed by his brother ahhh~~ Owww!
“Eh—”
Qiu Qiu couldn’t help but giggle, getting picked up by his second brother, who had suddenly and completely turned into a big lion, and placed on his back, playfully racing around the entire hall.
Unlike before when he was still a little bird, this time he had to grab onto his second brother’s lion fur to maintain balance and not be thrown off.
Under the rapid run, even his downy feathers fluttered, as if his mood was also floating along.
“Grauu~!”
After an extremely excited run around the room and returning to the original spot, Qiu Yiming then picked up his younger brother from his back and couldn’t help but nuzzle the little fellow’s cheek with his beastly nose, instantly making Qiu Qiu’s eyes crinkle with laughter.
Grauu grauu~~~ My little brother is the strongest!!!
Everyone on the side stared blankly at everything that had happened in this instant. After finally reacting, everyone’s faces became quite colorful.
For the attendants on the side, it was simply so cute that they almost clutched their chests. The little master was actually coaxed into giving a kiss ahhh, his blushing face is so adorable ahhh!!
“…………………………This! Little! Brat!”
Qiu Chongshan slapped the table, looking at this scene, and suddenly gritted his teeth, feeling for the first time in tens of thousands of years, really, so sour………………!!!
Ahhhhhhh if only I knew this would work… I wanted to try it too ahhh!!
He was the slowest to learn to say “Papa” before, why isn’t the first kiss for his own Papa ahhh!?
TUT [Tiger tears]
“Aiya, it seems this year’s start of school will be particularly lively.”
The head butler Leihman looked at everything with a smile, feeling that the mansion hadn’t been this lively in a long time.
Although it was good before, for some reason, there was always an indescribable sense of routine, as if everything was operating step by step towards a certain predetermined goal.
But from this moment on, he suddenly felt that something was different.
It was as if, after a certain gear slightly slowed down by half a beat, the entire machine slowly took a step towards another completely new possibility.
Leihman lowered his head and closed his gloved palms, feeling a bit bewildered by the thought that flashed through his mind. It seemed his brain shouldn’t have such thoughts.
“…”
Qiu Jingyu, watching this scene, simply closed the book in his hand and glanced expressionlessly at Qiu Yiming, who was so excited he almost ascended on the spot.
Not far away, Ortnes was almost going crazy with anxiety.
【King, look quickly!! Master kissed his brother!!! Kissed!! Really kissed!!!】
Jin Lin: …
After initially getting up and opening his eyes, and watching Qiu Yiming turn into his beastly spiritual form and excitedly run around, Jin Lin then coiled back up indifferently.
What does it have to do with me?
This little beast can kiss whoever he wants…
Being coaxed into giving a kiss, so childish.
【Heavens!? King! Why aren’t you worried at all!?? Look!! Since Master can kiss his brother!! Then maybe in the future he’ll kiss some other little sub-dragon!!!】
Ortnes felt that he shouldn’t be a red dragon, he should be a fire dragon, the kind that gets so anxious he breathes fire on the spot.
It was best to immediately, now, right away, get his King’s attention.
“…”
The dragon’s tail twitched unnaturally, but he remained silent.
How could that be possible?
Family is one thing…
【King!? Do you think it’s impossible!??? It’s completely possible ahhh! Look, all those human dramas are like that!!】
【First, send a huge gem!! Then, with romantic music playing and the backdrop of ocean waves, the next second is a kiss!!!】
Hiding at home and occasionally catching some of the light brain dramas that the attendants secretly watched, the red dragon Ortnes felt that he had a pretty good understanding of human culture.
And that little sub-dragon is very cunning!
He knows how to give gems even at such a young age!!
“…Too noisy, shut up.”
The next second, a low, cold voice suddenly sounded, instantly silencing the bead beside him to the point where it could only blink its non-existent eyes.
Jin Lin lowered his eyes to look at Ortnes, his overwhelmingly powerful majesty almost instantly causing the red dragon blood bead to tremble faintly in place.
However, the innate submission to higher dragons within his bloodline prevented Ortnes from even forming the thought of escaping.
The King’s power seems to have become stronger again…
Just as Ortnes thought he was about to be crushed and completely disappear from the world, the King in front of him finally shifted his gaze.
【…King?】
Not only that, but his silencing restriction seemed to have been lifted too!?
Ortnes tentatively called out, only to find that his usually aloof King suddenly had a hint of entanglement in his expression.
“What do you think he would like?”
…?
【Huh?】
“Gem.”
He had so many gems… who knew what that little beast liked.
【…!!! Heavens, you finally realized!! Gems! They must be as big as possible!!!】
Ortnes was so overjoyed he almost cried. His King was indeed still too young!! He needed an experienced old dragon like himself to guide him!! [Dragon proudly puffs out chest]
Jin Lin looked at the excited and elated appearance of the bead and suddenly felt a bit doubtful.
